Chapter 128: The Celestial Symbol Master

With these thoughts in mind, Xiao Tian slowly closed his eyes. As he did, the tree pattern in his hand began to float up and eventually attached itself to his forehead. Although the tree pattern emitted a green glow, no energy surged out of it.

For an ordinary person, even obtaining this tree pattern would make it difficult to refine. But Xiao Tian had the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, making it extremely easy for him to refine it.

"Rumble!"

With a slight thought, the Devouring Ancestral Symbol floated out, transforming into a black hole that enveloped the tree pattern. As the terrifying devouring force surged, the previously immovable tree pattern began to emit streams of green energy. This wasn't the tree pattern releasing energy on its own; it was being forcibly extracted by the Devouring Ancestral Symbol.

As soon as these green energies appeared, they were swallowed by the Devouring Ancestral Symbol. At the same time, waves of mysterious energy began to flow into Xiao Tian's Niwan Palace (the pineal gland area).

As these energies flowed in, Xiao Tian's Niwan Palace underwent drastic changes. Previously, it had been in a state of chaos, resembling the primordial world before creation. But as the energies entered, the chaos began to transform, seemingly forming a small world.

This is why there is a distinct difference between Celestial Symbol Masters and ordinary Symbol Masters. To break through to the level of a Celestial Symbol Master, one must break the chaos within the Niwan Palace and create a small world. This small world then resonates with the external world, allowing the user to easily manipulate the power of the heavens and the earth, wielding immense power with ease.

As Xiao Tian was refining the tree pattern and breaking through to become a Celestial Symbol Master, a strange light suddenly shot out from the nearby skeleton, heading straight for Xiao Tian. The light moved at an incredible speed, entering Xiao Tian's body in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Little Marten exclaimed, "Xiao Tian, watch out! He's trying to possess you!"

In fact, Xiao Tian didn't need the reminder. He knew the entity's intention since he had read the original work. He had chosen to break through here deliberately to lure it out, intending to devour it instead.

As soon as the mysterious soul from the skeleton entered Xiao Tian's Niwan Palace, it transformed into a dark gray storm, wreaking havoc. However, Xiao Tian had prepared for this, hiding his soul power, so the sudden attack didn't weaken him at all.

"Blaze!"

An invisible fire suddenly appeared, turning into a sea of flames that collided with the dark gray storm.

"Ah!" An eerie scream echoed, "What kind of flame is this? It can actually harm my soul!"

As the Fallen Heart Flame fiercely burned the invading soul, Xiao Tian controlled the Devouring Ancestral Symbol to tear off pieces of the soul's energy and devour them.

"Devouring Ancestral Symbol? You… you possess the Devouring Ancestral Symbol!" the soul exclaimed in shock.

However, it quickly turned arrogant, "Despite your treasures, your soul is too weak. Let me devour you and achieve greatness!"

"Die, you wretched spirit!" At this moment, Little Marten joined in, helping Xiao Tian suppress the invader.

"Damn it, let me go, and I'll give you benefits!" the soul pleaded in terror.

But Xiao Tian had no intention of sparing it. This was a rare and valuable supplement for him. With the Devouring Ancestral Symbol in full operation, the soul was gradually devoured.

"Boom!"

As the invading soul was consumed, Xiao Tian finally broke through to become a Celestial Symbol Master. His Niwan Palace had now fully transformed into a small world, and his soul was more solid than before. Powerful soul waves emanated from him, far surpassing those of high-level Symbol Masters.

Feeling the surging soul power within, Xiao Tian couldn't help but smile. He had successfully broken through to become a Celestial Symbol Master. Additionally, he had absorbed part of the invader's memories, gaining valuable cultivation experience and unique soul techniques and secrets.

"Time to leave," Xiao Tian thought, and with a single thought, he left the space.

When he reappeared, he found himself back in the grand hall, where many people were confronting his group. Among them were four Nirvana stage experts and over twenty half-step Nirvana stage individuals.

Seeing Xiao Tian, Little Doctor Immortal said, "Are you okay?"

"Yes, I am fine," Xiao Tian replied. "With Sister Medusa here, they didn't dare to push us too hard."

"Friend, the ancient key is with you, right?" one of the Nirvana stage experts said. "If you hand it over, our Mo Yan Dynasty is willing to exchange it for Nirvana pills."

Xiao Tian looked at the other two Nirvana stage experts and asked, "Do you agree with this?"

"This matter is between you and the Mo Yan Dynasty. It has nothing to do with us," they replied, stepping back to give way.

Xiao Tian knew they intended to watch the situation unfold without getting involved. However, they wouldn't get the chance. Xiao Tian summoned the Heaven Crocodile Bone Spear and hurled it at the speaker.

"Slash!" The spear pierced through the air, nailing the man to the ground.

"Boom!" A destructive force from the spear wiped out the man's life force.

"This…" The crowd was terrified. In just one move, Xiao Tian had killed a Nirvana stage expert. The two other Nirvana stage experts who had stepped back felt fortunate for not siding with the Mo Yan Dynasty.

Xiao Tian recalled the spear, grabbed the Nirvana expert's spatial ring and body, and turned to leave. As he walked, people moved aside in fear, giving him a wide berth.

No one dared to oppose Xiao Tian, who had just slain two Nirvana stage experts in front of them. One of the Nirvana stage experts had spent fifty thousand Nirvana pills to break through, making Xiao Tian's feat even more shocking.
