Chapter 162: The Might of a Dou Zun
"You're speaking too boastfully, aren't you?" Xiao Tian looked at the figure with a cold gaze and said, "In the past, when my Xiao clan was at its peak, we ruled the entire continent. Even the Soul Clan that supports your Soul Hall didn't dare to speak to us like this. If my Xiao clan ancestor hadn't failed to break through to Dou Di, resulting in severe injuries, the Soul Clan wouldn't have dared to attack us."
"The Xiao clan was indeed powerful back then, but now your clan is in decline!" The black mist fluctuated and condensed into a human figure shrouded in deep black fog, with a pair of slightly reddish eyes emerging from the darkness.
"Kekeke, now your Xiao clan only has Dou Zongs. I can destroy you with a flip of my hand!"
...
"The Xiao clan? So the Xiao family is actually the Xiao clan?"
"Did the Xiao clan really rule the Dou Qi continent back then? And their ancestor tried to break through to Dou Di? Doesn't that mean the Xiao clan had a peak Dou Sheng?"
"From what they're saying, the Xiao clan was destroyed by the Soul Clan behind the Soul Hall!"
"Who would have thought we'd hear such high-level secrets!"
The conversation between the two left everyone, including Yun Shan, shocked and in disbelief. None of them had expected that the seemingly small Xiao family from Wu Tan City was once a clan with peak Dou Shengs.
"Destroy us with a flip of your hand?" Xiao Tian laughed up at the sky upon hearing this.
The Soul Hall Protector glanced at Xiao Tian and asked, "Xiao Tian, why are you laughing?"
"I'm laughing because you're just trash!" Xiao Tian extended his right hand and clenched it forcefully. The space around them distorted, and the Soul Hall Protector exploded with a loud bang. Only a terrified voice echoed, "You... you are not a Dou Zong but a... Dou Zun!"
"Gulp!"
This scene made everyone present swallow hard. They had thought that the mysterious Soul Hall Protector would capture Xiao Tian, but the situation reversed again. Xiao Tian had crushed a Dou Zong with just a single grasp, revealing that he was actually a Dou Zun.
A Dou Zun was enough to dominate the northwest region and be considered a powerful figure even in Zhongzhou. Usually, they wouldn't even get to see such a high-ranking person, but now they were witnessing one.
"We greet Dou Zun Xiao Tian!" Jia Xingtian and the others exchanged glances and then bowed deeply.
"Rise," Xiao Tian nodded and then looked at Yun Shan, asking, "Yun Shan, do you still want to oppose me?"
"Yun Shan doesn't dare!" Feeling Xiao Tian's gaze, Yun Shan quickly answered, fear evident in his voice, worried that Xiao Tian might kill him on the spot.
"You are spared from death, but you won't escape punishment!" Xiao Tian's eyes flashed with cold light. With a flick of his finger, Yun Leng flew back, spitting blood. Xiao Tian then unleashed his soul power, forming four imprints that embedded into the souls of Yun Shan and the three elders.
"I have placed soul imprints in your souls. If any of you dare to act against me, the imprints will explode and annihilate your souls."
"Thank you, Dou Zun, for sparing us!" The four of them felt both unwilling and relieved.
"There's no need to thank me," Xiao Tian waved his hand. "A mere Dou Zong and three Dou Wangs are not worth my attention." He then turned to Yun Yun, saying, "The reason I spared your lives is mainly because of Yun'er."
Xiao Tian stepped forward, embraced Yun Yun with one arm, and held Yun Xiao in the other, addressing everyone, "I suppose you're all curious about the identity of this little girl. She is my and Yun Yun's daughter."
"What?"
This revelation was beyond everyone's expectations. Many had speculated that Yun Xiao was Yun Yun's daughter, but no one had guessed that she was Xiao Tian's child.
"I thought today would be a disaster for Yun Lan Sect, but it has turned into a fortunate event!" Jia Xingtian felt a bitter taste in his mouth. With the support of a Dou Zun, Yun Lan Sect would inevitably dominate the entire Jia Ma Empire.
Xiao Tian addressed the crowd, "Since everyone is here, I have an announcement. I plan to unify the Jia Ma Empire and establish the Xiao Alliance!"
His words plunged the area into silence. Clearly, no one wanted to join this Xiao Alliance.
"Dou Zun, I am willing!"
A voice suddenly broke the silence, drawing everyone's attention. They saw that the speaker was Fa Ma, the president of the Jia Ma Empire's Alchemist Association. Not only was Fa Ma a Dou Huang, but he was also a six-tier alchemist, making his status significant.
With Fa Ma's declaration, many others were swayed.
"I am willing!"
"I am also willing!"
As more people voiced their agreement, the rest had no choice but to follow, especially after witnessing Xiao Tian's power firsthand.
Seeing everyone's compliance, Xiao Tian continued, "You have all made the right choice. Now, I announce that all Dou Lings who join the Xiao Alliance will receive one Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill; Dou Wangs will receive one Dou Ling Pill; Dou Huangs will receive one Huang Ji Pill. Those who make significant contributions can use their points to exchange for Po Zong Pills, Qing Ming Pills, and even Earth-tier Dou Techniques and Qi Methods!"
"Wow!"
The crowd erupted in excitement. Initially, they had agreed out of fear of Xiao Tian's power, but now they were glad they did. With these resources, they could all advance to higher levels.
"Thank you, Dou Zun!"
The crowd expressed their gratitude in unison.
At this moment, Nalan Jie stepped forward and said, "Dou Zun, I was injured by a fifth-tier magical beast, the Iron Python. Can you save my life?"
"Of course!" Xiao Tian nodded. With a thought, a fusion of different fires appeared. Pointing at Nalan Jie, the fusion fire turned into a stream of light and entered his body. Under Xiao Tian's powerful soul control, the poison in Nalan Jie's body was quickly consumed by the fire, slightly increasing Xiao Tian's cultivation in the process.
Feeling the disappearance of the poison, Nalan Jie was overjoyed. He knelt on one knee and said respectfully, "Thank you for saving my life, Dou Zun. From now on, my life belongs to you."
"Alright, I will have Yun'er distribute the pills in a few days. You may all leave now." Xiao Tian waved his sleeve and left with Yun Yun and Yun Xiao.
After they left, Jia Xingtian glared at Fa Ma and asked, "Fa Ma, why did you agree so quickly?"
Fa Ma responded, "Do you know how I became a six-tier alchemist?"
"Could it be?"
Everyone had a guess in their minds.
Fa Ma answered, "Three years ago, Dou Zun Xiao Tian gave me a fragment of a soul cultivation method."
"So that's how you got such a treasure. It was Dou Zun who gave it to you." Everyone understood now.
Fa Ma stroked his beard and smiled, "Even with just a fragment, I reached the sixth tier. If I had the complete method, I might even become a seventh-tier alchemist!"
