Chapter 468 Entering the Sky Tomb
As soon as the door opened, Hun Ya from the Soul Clan and another young and powerful man from the Soul Clan rushed in directly.
Xiao Yan was a little stunned to see Hun Ya walking so fast, but after entering, as long as they did not enter together, they would be teleported randomly, so now he could not catch up even if he chased.
However, Xiao Yan had no intention of taking action immediately as that would be too obvious. After all, this was an ancient clan, so Xiao Yan could not act too obviously.
"Let's go in too!" Xun'er said to Xiao Yan when she saw everyone else going in.
Xiao Yan nodded, and after exchanging a glance with Xun'er, the two of them turned into two streams of light and rushed towards the gate, then disappeared in the strong light of the huge gate.
After Xun'er and Xiao Yan entered the gate, the ancient gate closed again and the space fell into silence again. It would be half a year before it opened again.
After Xiao Yan entered the Heavenly Tomb, he found that the surroundings were shrouded in fog and he could not see clearly. Occasionally, there were flashes of fire, which looked extremely strange.
"Is this the Heavenly Tomb?" Xiao Yan asked with a faint smile, looking at Xun'er beside him.
Hearing this, Xun'er nodded and said, "The Heavenly Tomb is extremely vast. The others should have been teleported to other places, so it is difficult to find them. However, this is only the first floor of the Heavenly Tomb. The energy in the air is limited, so those who enter the Heavenly Tomb will eventually go to the third floor for retreat."
“Haha, this first layer of energy is denser than the ancient world. I can’t imagine how dense the third layer of energy is.” Xiao Yan said with a faint smile.
After entering this celestial tomb, Xiao Yan's body began to devour the surrounding energy like a glutton, which made Xiao Yan feel extremely comfortable.
As Xiao Yan's internal energy technique began to circulate rapidly, a small energy vortex gradually condensed around him.
Xun'er was also a little surprised when she saw the energy body around Xiao Yan turning into a small vortex. This was a sign of extremely fast cultivation speed.
“With our current strength, it’s a sheer waste of time to stay on this first level. The Heavenly Tomb is huge, so we better hurry to the second level.” Xun’er didn’t want to waste time here. The third level was the final destination. If Xiao Yan could break through to the Douluo in the Heavenly Tomb, then he would have established a foothold in Zhongzhou and even in these ancient families.
Xiao Yan nodded, and his body's instinct drove him to go to a place with more energy.
Both of them were semi-saint level warriors at this time, and their speed was extremely fast. However, while on the way, Xiao Yan was suddenly attracted by a phantom. The phantom saw Xiao Yan stopped and immediately pounced towards Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan looked at the attacking shadow and slapped it with his hand. The energy body began to twist and exploded, leaving behind a glowing diamond-shaped crystal.
Looking at the crystal that stored pure energy, Xiao Yan looked at Xun'er and asked with a smile: "This is the special energy core of the ancient tomb, right?"
"Yes! But this kind of low-level energy core has limited effect on us. Even if we swallow more, it is difficult to stir up any waves." Xun'er nodded, then smiled and said: "The energy core of the Heavenly Tomb is divided into nine levels, and the one in your hand can only be considered as level three."
Xiao Yan nodded, absorbed the energy core, and headed towards the depths of the Heavenly Tomb with Xun'er again.
After more than a month's long journey, Xiao Yan and Xun'er finally arrived in front of an energy light curtain.
"Is this the entrance to the second floor?" Xiao Yan asked with a faint smile, looking at Xun'er beside him.
Hearing this, Xun'er nodded and said with a faint smile: "This energy light curtain has a very strong pressure. Generally, people who are not strong enough cannot enter and will only be crushed into powder. But this is nothing to us."
"Let's go!" Xiao Yan held Xun'er's hand, and after a circular defensive light shield was condensed around them, he led Xun'er in. Since Xiao Yan and Xun'er were the first to enter the second floor, they encountered a lot of energy bodies, but most of them were five-star energy bodies. No matter how many of these energy bodies there were, they could not make any waves in the hands of Xiao Yan and Xun'er.
Xiao Yan and Xun'er rushed all the way, and only a few nine-star energy bodies could make them stop for a while, the others were simply vulnerable.
However, when Xiao Yan and Xun'er arrived at the entrance to the third level, they found that the energy layer of the entrance to the third level had actually solidified.
Xiao Yan looked at the energy crystal layer that was like a wall, and then he punched out suddenly. The wind from his fist was whistling, and the powerful force directly hit the energy crystal layer.
"Boom!" A loud explosion like thunder was heard, and the energy crystal layer, which was three times harder than diamond, was blasted into a semicircular pit nearly three meters wide.
"Brother Xiao Yan really deserves to be a saint in the flesh. This solid energy crystal layer would take a long time to burn into this even if it is forged with strange fire." Xun'er praised Xiao Yan when she saw him violently break the energy crystal layer.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled slightly, looked at Xun'er and said, "If you want me to do hard labor, just say so directly. Is there any need for such sweet talk?"
"Hehe! I'll be cheering for Brother Xiao Yan from the side." Xun'er stood aside and gave Xiao Yan a cheering gesture.
Xiao Yan curled his lips, clenched his fists, and then punched left and right, blasting towards the energy crystal layer respectively. For a moment, crystal chips flew everywhere.
"Bang bang bang!" Xiao Yan's fist was like a pile driver, moving at an incredibly fast speed, as if the energy crystal layer in front of him did not exist.
"Little girl, hurry up and catch up!" Xiao Yan shouted at Xun'er who was standing behind him.
Xun'er smiled faintly and walked in along the hole dug by Xiao Yan.
However, when Xun'er walked in, the hole made by Xiao Yan actually closed quickly.
Xiao Yan looked at the rapidly closing energy crystal and frowned slightly, knowing that it was the ancient devouring insects that were causing trouble.
"Brother Xiao Yan, it's the ancient devouring insects that are repairing these energy crystals." Xun'er also discovered that the energy crystals were healing quickly. Because the people of the ancient clan had entered the ancient tomb more than once, they were not unfamiliar with the ancient devouring insects.
“Haha, let’s see who is faster!” Xiao Yan’s punching speed increased again, and the speed of drilling holes became even faster. The energy crystals sprayed out by these ancient devouring insects were far from enough for Xiao Yan to punch.
Seeing that it could not do anything to Xiao Yan, the ancient devouring insect simply gave up and stopped wasting time.
Without the obstruction of the ancient devouring insects, Xiao Yan's speed was even faster. It took him less than half an hour to get out of the energy crystal layer and reach the third layer.
After entering the third level, Xiao Yan felt that the energy around him was even more intense. Even the earth was emitting rich energy. For a moment, Xiao Yan seemed to be in a sea of energy.
At this time, the internal skills in Xiao Yan's body were running rapidly, just like a machine injected with oil. A huge vortex quickly formed, and the vortex grew bigger and bigger, covering the sky and the sun, wrapping Xiao Yan tightly inside.
"Brother Xiao Yan, you are showing signs of breaking through to become a Douluo Saint!" Xun'er said in surprise when she saw Xiao Yan being enveloped by such a huge energy vortex.
