Chapter 2240: Chapter 2237: Your Ancestors?

"Does Senior Xia really have this skill?" Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows.

It’s not that he didn’t believe Xia Canglan’s words.

But the reputation and skill of Dean Huoo are well-known across the continent.

However, in the context of the Hidden Forces, Dean Huoo falls short compared to Xia Yifeng?

Emperor Master is lesser than Hidden Master?

"Hmph." Xia Canglan snorted coldly, "Kid, do you think I’m speaking nonsense?"

Xia Yifeng waved his hand lightly, interrupting, "In terms of mastery in Martial Arts, I’m not as good as Huoo Zhongtian."

"This person is indeed remarkable, having read through all kinds of Martial Arts volumes and texts, numbering in the tens of millions."

"He knows countless Martial Arts in the world. Though he hasn’t absorbed some Martial Arts into a Small World to control, he understands their intricacies better than those controllers."

"Huoo Zhongtian is like a Martial Arts encyclopedia."

"It’s a pity." Xia Yifeng said solemnly, "In terms of inheritance, the Heavenly Hidden Academy is far less enduring than my Ice Emperor Palace."

"I can access even more ancient Martial Arts inheritances. Although I’m not from ancient times, I’ve witnessed ancient glories."

"Perhaps simply put, when it comes to teaching Martial Artists below the Saint Sovereign Realm, I’m inferior to him."

"But in guiding Martial Artists above the Saint Sovereign Realm, he is not as good as me."

"The previous Soul Emperor was an undeveloped Soul Emperor. If after attaining Saint Sovereign Realm he joined my sect, I could have helped him grow even faster."

Beside him, Xia Canglan said displeasedly, "Kid, the Patriarch of my Xia Family is reputed to be the best in Martial Arts instruction since ancient times, yet you’re still so doubtful?"

"Do you know why Senior Luoo repeatedly urged you to come here?"

"Heh." Xiao Yi chuckled awkwardly, "I just admire Dean Huoo a bit more."

Xia Yifeng smiled, "Seems you have some close ties with Huoo Zhongtian."

"Anyway, let’s not talk about that, let’s return to business."

"Sure." Xiao Yi cupped his hands, listening intently.

Xia Yifeng nodded and said, "What Senior Luoo mentioned in the letter was to have me let you, this young man, understand what it means for there to be someone beyond your comprehension and what it means to be ignorant of the vastness of the heavens."

"Therefore, when Guardian Bing proposed various restrictions and competitions, I did not oppose them at all."

"Senior Luoo also intended to have you suffer losses at the hands of the Eight Venerable Envoys, to make you realize the importance of cultivation."

He said, Xia Yifeng smiled bitterly, "It’s a pity, you are too abnormal, and my Ice Emperor Palace’s most outstanding younger generation did not make you suffer, instead you defeated them all."

"But I still want you to remember what I said earlier: cultivation is the foundation."

"If your cultivation today could advance by several thousand paths, truly entering the Second Layer of the Saint Sovereign Realm, today’s battle would have been much easier."

"It looks like a mere increase of several thousand paths, but it is an immense leap in power, something far beyond what any technique or Martial Technique could grant you."

Xia Yifeng put down the scroll in his hand and said solemnly, "Now, let’s talk about the issue concerning you."

"Your terrifying combat strength previously came from your Purple Lightning Divine Sword."

"The Purple Lightning Divine Sword was personally forged by Sword Venerable Lin Ye, and Senior Luoo inspected it closely. The materials used for the sword are all rare ancient materials."

"Even the Desolate Thunder Stone used in the sword body alone was enough to drive countless Martial Artists crazy during ancient times."

"The Sword Seed was forged from Nine Heavens Sword Stone."

"In short, every material is rare and precious beyond measure."

"And Sword Venerable Lin Ye is the most outstanding swordsmith of the current continent."

"The most outstanding swordsmith, using the most outstanding materials, crafted this Divine Weapon for you with full effort, making it the once strongest High Grade Peak Holy Artifact."

"Later, the Asura Hall Master added a million-year Dragon Spirit Vein, completely elevating the sword, making it a top-grade weapon that is the strongest below Heaven and Earth Treasures."

"Logically speaking," Xia Yifeng said solemnly, "neither you, nor I, nor Senior Luoo can fully control nor unleash all the power within this Divine Sword."

"Yet you managed it, wielding the sword as if it were an extension of your own arm, perfectly controlled."

"The reason, Senior Luoo has a hypothesis, but I am 100% certain it comes from your Martial Soul."

Xia Yifeng continued, "Senior Luoo said he doesn’t recognize the two Martial Souls within your body either, naturally I don’t recognize them."

"But I am sure that the strange Fire Control Beast in your possession, although its Thunder Control Power is not that strong, its level is extremely high, fully harmonized with the two Thunder Spirits within Purple Lightning."

"Thus, you can perfectly control the Purple Lightning Divine Sword."

Xia Yifeng’s expression suddenly turned serious, "Your terrifying combat strength, secondly, comes from the Qi and Blood Dao."

"On the day of the battle at Holy Moon Sect, you consumed the Essence Blood within you, and your combat strength suddenly surged, directly disregarding the massive gap of late-stage Saint Sovereign Realm."

"There’s only one possibility for this - bloodline."

"Bloodline?" Xiao Yi frowned.

Xia Yifeng nodded, "Among contemporary Martial Artists, there’s still the saying that bloodline determines talent, but in fact, bloodlines today have become extremely sparse."

"In ancient times, the bloodline of those formidable experts was truly earth-shattering."

"One with a terrifying ancient bloodline could be one of the strongest of the era."

"His Essence Blood within could allow him to erupt with terrifying combat strength."

Xia Yifeng frowned again, "But Senior Luoo sensed your body and found nothing indicating you have a strong bloodline, that’s the point I am most puzzled."

"Tell me honestly, are you really from a small family in a secluded part of the Eastern Domain? That small family only has some Innate Realm and Mysterious Profundity Realm?"

"Did your ancestors have any remarkable individuals?"

"Heh." Xiao Yi smiled bitterly, "My Xiao Family’s strongest in history was but a Mysterious Profundity Realm Warrior."

"Only Mysterious Profundity Realm?" Xia Canglan laughed, "What a lousy family."

Xiao Yi glanced at him, and Xia Canglan quickly hid his smile and pouted.

"This is impossible." Xia Yifeng frowned, "I saw the frame imprint left by Senior Luoo for me, the Qi and Blood Dao power you erupted during the Holy Moon Sect battle clearly came from your Essence Blood."

"Later, the eight Masters of the Main Hall also checked, and after the battle, nearly ninety percent of your Essence Blood was lost, almost leading to your demise."

"Come." Xia Yifeng’s eyes suddenly turned sharp, his figure flickered, and he instantly grasped Xiao Yi’s arm.

"So strong." Xiao Yi was shocked in his heart.

With his strength, he couldn’t counter-control at all.

The aura Xia Yifeng is exuding now is even more dominant than the Heartless Inn Master.

Hiss...

Xia Yifeng’s fingers moved lightly as a thin red line appeared on Xiao Yi’s arm.

Xia Yifeng’s fingers wandered, the red line’s glow increased, and a drop of Essence Blood overflowed from Xiao Yi’s fingertip.

Xia Yifeng pointed with his two fingers, receiving it.

A strand of Primordial Power was released.

The Essence Blood instantly radiated a red glow.

Next to him, Xia Canglan’s face changed dramatically, "Such strong Heaven and Earth powers, how is it possible."

Xia Yifeng narrowed his eyes, "Asura Blood? No, the mere Asura Blood cannot possess such terrifying Heaven and Earth powers."

"Such ancient aura... no... such terrifying killing intent."

Xia Yifeng’s face at this moment became extremely serious.
