The Invincible Supreme Medical God

Chapter 774 - 445: The Greatest Effort

...

Although Yan Xiaobao was advancing through one room after another, his body couldn’t control the speed. During the flight, his body was no longer bound by beams, allowing him to grab the things he passed by. Despite his best efforts, he still left behind rooms full of treasures, as he couldn’t slow down to pick up anything. The medicine pill he left behind particularly tugged at Yan Xiaobao’s heart.

His flight through the rooms was swiftly completed, but even at his speed, it took Yan Xiaobao several hours to fly from one room to another. Soon, he was completely numbed by the vastness of the tomb he had entered.

His flight gave him a good seven-hour stretch before his speed finally decreased, and the young man fell from the sky to the ground of the tomb. But thinking of the golden martial power wings that appeared on his back, he elegantly landed on the ground.

Upon landing, Yan Xiaobao quickly looked around. Behind him was the gigantic door he had passed, leading back to many rooms filled with treasures he had bypassed. More doors lined the walls of most rooms, looking exactly like the door he had passed; clearly, these doors led to other treasure-filled tunnels, much like the one he had entered.

These doors led to other tunnels just like the rooms Hui Yue passed by, which wasn’t hard to guess, but Yan Xiaobao was puzzled as to why there were twenty entrances. At the entrance of the tomb, there were only fourteen tunnels in total. As for where the last six came from, Yan Xiaobao didn’t know.

Aside from the door he came from, none of the other doors had been opened. These doors lined the back of the room, and when Yan Xiaobao looked forward, he saw a massive door; a door so immense that just seeing it made his heart race. It seemed to be two hundred meters high, stretching to the ceiling, and at least three hundred meters wide.

There was no way to see how this door could be opened, as it seemed impenetrable; regardless of their cultivation, it seemed to prevent anyone from advancing.

"We need to wait for other Saints to appear here," Lan Feng mused softly. "Even if we combine our strength, we can’t open this door by ourselves. We need help from at least ten Saints to break it. I recognize the sealing energy, undoubtedly the Ancestor’s world power. I think we’re about to enter the inner part of the tomb," Lan Feng spoke not just to Yan Xiaobao, but also to himself.

Yan Xiaobao nodded, sitting on the ground to start cultivating. He realized that other experts would take some time to reach this chamber, especially considering how easily he had flown here. This time was best used to reach his peak state. Only then could he calmly watch over his treasures, knowing he could guard what he had gathered.

Sitting in the dim light of the room, Yan Xiaobao was the most relaxed he had been since entering the tomb. There were evidently no traps around, and in the room he was in, the cold yin energy was prevalent.

Sitting down, Yan Xiaobao fully immersed himself in the cold energy rushing into his body. He knew he should take some time to sort through the treasures he acquired along the way; however, he was completely unable to do so without first absorbing sufficient energy into his body.

For thousands of years, energy had been stored in the room, which was filled with energy, even just breathing caused a lot of energy to enter his body. It was as if he could absorb boundless yin energy. The energy Yan Xiaobao absorbed was so vast that he felt the yin-yang balance in his heart of Wu Yin was slowly shifting; it quietly moved towards perfect balance. This was something he had longed for, and as he greedily absorbed the energy into his body, a hint of a smile appeared on his face.

One day passed, then another day, and soon three days passed, with Yan Xiaobao not moving an inch. As the air in the room changed, he sat there without moving. On the first day, it was already thick and filled with astonishing cold yin energy, but now there was a slight warmth in the air. The warmth slowly filled the entire room, emanating from this young man.

As the fourth day ended, Yan Xiaobao opened his eyes and exhaled an old breath. Completely focused on absorbing the yin energy in the room, he had finally succeeded in absorbing all of it.

In the depths of his eyes was a cold glimmer, which gradually melted as the young man claimed all the cold energy. He slowly stood up from the ground with a bright smile on his face. His entire body was brimming with vitality. He was currently at the pinnacle of the ninth star, so close to breaking through to the Emperor-level; so close that once he managed to cross the last barrier, he could almost feel the abundant energy.

The Yin Energy not only greatly enhanced his power but also perfectly balanced the energy in his consciousness. Yin Yang Energy. After absorbing the energy of the Jing Family, he no longer experienced the imbalance he had previously.

As he stood, Yan Xiaobao stretched his body and then picked up some storage stones filled with many treasures he had grabbed along the way.

Looking at the room where the door opened, he knew that the expert group was currently rushing towards him. They hurriedly passed through a room and finally reached the inner area of the tomb where he was now. As they proceeded here, a fierce battle might very well occur, but the Saints Team might also collaborate to open the heavy door behind him.
