Starting as a supporting character in Doupo

Zi Yan shook her head at Xiao Fan and said, "There is still a soul imprint remaining in this storage ring, which will push away my soul power."

"Push your soul force away?"

Listening to Zi Yan's words, Xiao Fan recalled his previous attempts, during which the soul imprint seemed intent on killing him inside. He couldn't help but say, "How about... we try together? I'll block that soul force for you, and you see if you can get the thing out!"

After all, it was a storage ring from a nine-star Dou Sheng, so even with some risks, Xiao Fan wanted to give it a try.

"Okay."

Zi Yan nodded, then exchanged a glance with Xiao Fan, and their soul power simultaneously probed towards the crimson storage ring in front of them.

Soon, in Xiao Fan's perception, the soul imprint that had blocked him countless times before reappeared in front of him. And as if sensing Xiao Fan's aura, a powerful fluctuation once again emanated from the soul imprint.

Chapter 165 Obtaining the Dragon Seal

It seemed to have sensed Xiao Fan's presence.

Within the storage ring, the soul imprint from Zhu Kun, with its terrifying power, surged towards Xiao Fan's location. In the past, Xiao Fan would have already left by now, leaving only a small amount of soul power to continuously erase the mark on the soul imprint.

After all, no matter how strong Zhu Kun is, what's in this storage ring is nothing more than a source without roots. As long as he has patience, he can eventually destroy it.

However, this time, because of Zi Yan's appearance, Xiao Fan did not choose to escape.

A powerful soul force blocked their path, forming a barrier. Immediately, Xiao Fan transmitted his voice to Zi Yan, "Quick, now!"

Hearing Xiao Fan's signal, Zi Yan did not hesitate and probed her soul power into the storage ring.

"boom!"

A vast surge of soul energy crashed into Xiao Fan's soul barrier. Although Xiao Fan was prepared, he still felt a slight dizziness throughout his mind.

Gritting his teeth, Xiao Fan couldn't help but marvel at the terror of a Dou Sheng.

It was just a soul imprint from an unknown time ago in a storage ring, but it still brought me a lot of trouble.

"Zi Yan, is it possible!?"

Feeling a bit of pressure, Xiao Fan couldn't help but ask Zi Yan if things were hopeless. He would have to abandon the idea of ​​taking a shortcut and continue with their previous plan.

"It seems alright. I think if I have another half a cup of tea's time, I should be able to break through the blockade."

Hearing Zi Yan's words, Xiao Fan felt a surge of joy. It seemed that his idea was correct. Zi Yan was Zhu Kun's daughter, so it seemed that with Zi Yan's help, the obstacle in the storage ring was not too insurmountable.

Hearing that there was a chance to succeed, a glint of lechery flashed in Xiao Fan's eyes, and he shouted sharply, "Fine! Then I'll give you another half a cup of tea's time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Fan no longer hesitated. His powerful soul force surged into the storage ring, blocking all the soul impacts from the soul imprint within the ring.

"Angao~"

Seemingly sensing Xiao Fan's difficulty, Zhu Kun's soul imprint gathered together within the storage ring, transforming into a golden dragon that roared towards Xiao Fan.

An invisible impact struck again, and cracks immediately appeared on the soul barrier that Xiao Fan had constructed.

However, having already decided to take action, Xiao Fan channeled his soul power into the barrier, continuously repairing it.

After a while, the barrier formed by Xiao Fan's soul power looked shaky, but it withstood the impact from the other side time and time again.

After a while, seemingly realizing that it couldn't do anything to Xiao Fan, a hint of annoyance flashed in the eyes of the golden dragon, and it then soared through the space, trying to find Xiao Fan's weakness to attack.

However, under Xiao Fan's tight defense, there was not the slightest flaw.

"Ow~"

Just then, the giant dragon flying in mid-air seemed to sense Zi Yan's presence. It roared and instantly retreated, howling towards the location of Zi Yan's soul power.

"It happened!"

Xiao Fan sensed the movement of the mark, his expression changed, and he could no longer care about anything else. His soul power transformed into a large hand and reached out to grab the golden dragon.

Under Xiao Fan's full urging, the Soul Palm Imprint arrived first, intercepting Zi Yan before she could get close. The enormous palm, like a sky-covering blot, descended upon the golden dragon.

"Click~~"

The palm print continued to close, quickly imprisoning the giant dragon within its palm. However, it only held it back for two breaths before cracks appeared on its palm.

Immediately afterwards, the fingers collapsed, the soul palm print shattered, and the golden dragon broke free instantly.

As the golden dragon broke through, Xiao Fan's face also turned pale. This obstruction was equivalent to him taking a direct hit from the opponent, so Xiao Fan was naturally not in a good mood.

However, seeing the movements of the golden dragon, Xiao Fan dared not gamble. For Zi Yan's safety, Xiao Fan had no choice but to continue his attack.

"Zi Yan, if things can't be done, let's back down!"

While blocking the golden dragon, Xiao Fan spoke to Zi Yan.

"I can sense it. The barrier within this storage ring seems to share a similar aura with me, and it doesn't seem to repel my soul power too much. However, retrieving what's inside is still quite difficult..."

Zi Yan's voice rang in Xiao Fan's ears. Upon hearing Zi Yan's words, a hint of joy flashed across Xiao Fan's face. This meant that there was still a chance. If it were him, as long as his soul power approached the barrier on the storage ring, it would instantly trigger a counterattack from the soul power within, instead of being ignored like Zi Yan had.

Therefore, as long as he can stop the golden dragon formed by the soul imprint, Zi Yan still has a chance to succeed.

"Fight!"

Xiao Fan roared, a wisp of invisible fire flashing in his eyes.

Immediately, Xiao Fan manipulated the Fallen Heart Flame, transforming it into an invisible giant dragon that blocked the golden dragon's path.

Of the several strange flames that Xiao Fan currently possesses, only the invisible Fallen Heart Flame is the most suitable at this moment, as it has an extremely powerful effect on suppressing soul power.

Unfortunately............

Looking at the invisible dragon shadow that shattered after only a few breaths under the golden dragon's claws, Xiao Fan's face showed a hint of helplessness.

"All right!"

However, at this moment, Zi Yan's voice also rang in Xiao Fan's ears, and then Zi Yan's soul power retreated out of the storage ring like a tide.

Seeing that Zi Yan had successfully escaped, Xiao Fan looked at the golden dragon in mid-air with an unfriendly expression. He transformed his soul power into a long whip and lashed it down at the golden dragon. The strange fire aura it carried continuously eroded the golden dragon.

Xiao Fan instantly withdrew from the storage ring, letting the golden dragon roar within. He then transformed back into the brand and placed it on the protection within the storage ring, though the power of the brand had weakened slightly.

Back in the courtyard, Xiao Fan's gaze fell on Zi Yan, who was looking at the items in her hands with a strange expression.

Xiao Fan followed the words and saw a small dragon-shaped seal lying quietly in Zi Yan's palm.

Xiao Fan looked at the seal in Zi Yan's hand. The dragon shadow on it was exactly the same as the phantom of the Ancient Void Dragon that had appeared behind Zi Yan before. Moreover, Xiao Fan also felt a faint pressure from this dragon seal.

"Is this what you took out of your storage ring?"

Xiao Fan stared at the seal in Zi Yan's palm and asked with a hint of curiosity.

Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, Zi Yan snapped out of her daze, nodded, then shook her head, and said, "Rather than saying I took it out, it's more accurate to say it crawled out on its own. I just tore a crack in the diaphragm and sensed a resonance within it, and then this thing flew out by itself..."

Hearing Zi Yan's words, Xiao Fan's gaze fell on the seal. Looking at its appearance, a thought struck him, and he asked, "Can you use this thing?"

"It seems okay."

Zi Yan nodded and said, "That should be the case..."

As Zi Yan finished speaking, purple light flashed in her eyes, and then the seal in her palm emitted a terrifying energy fluctuation, instantly growing from the size of a palm to a huge seal, which floated above Zi Yan's head.

The dragon shadows swirling above the seal seemed to come alive, constantly twisting and turning, and roars of dragons echoed out.

"Sigh~~"

The terrifying energy fluctuations spread instantly, but fortunately, Xiao Fan had the foresight to strengthen the sealing power around the courtyard, which firmly contained the fluctuations within the courtyard.

Xiao Fan looked up at the enormous seal above him, sensing the aura emanating from it. His eyes narrowed slightly. It seemed Zi Yan had obtained something extraordinary…

"I can feel that using the power of my bloodline will activate this seal. With this seal, my strength seems to have increased. Although I have just broken through, I feel that with my current strength and this seal, I can fight even a four-star Dou Zong. Even if it is a five-star Dou Zong, I am confident that I can escape unscathed!"

Feeling the power of the seal, Zi Yan's eyes shone, and a big smile appeared on her face. She then said, "Moreover, I discovered that this seal can also be used as a weapon."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Fan saw that the seal above Zi Yan's head grew larger again, becoming several feet in size, and the aura emanating from it became even more terrifying, as if it were about to strike down at any moment.

"Zi Yan, quickly withdraw your supernatural powers!"

Sensing the energy on the seal, Xiao Fan's expression changed. If Zi Yan really bought it, he wasn't worried about the energy leaking out, but rather he suspected that the seal was related to the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. It would be bad if it attracted the powerful members of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan.

After all, quite a few powerful individuals on Ancient Dragon Island have already harbored the idea of ​​establishing their own kingdoms...

After Zi Yan accepted the seal, Xiao Fan said, "I didn't expect you to get such a good deal."

Xiao Fan rolled his eyes at Zi Yan, seemingly noticing her hesitant expression. He patted her head and said, "This storage ring did indeed come from a powerful member of the Ancient Dragon Clan. The reason you were able to break through the barrier within the storage ring and obtain this seal should be related to your bloodline."

Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, Zi Yan asked curiously, "What exactly is the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan like?"

Having never lived on Ancient Dragon Island since childhood, Zi Yan was naturally incredibly curious about her own race. Although Xiao Fan had already introduced her to them, she still wanted to know more about the Ancient Dragon of the Void.

"The Ancient Dragon Clan of the Void is one of the three great magical beast clans of the Central Continent..."

Xiao Fan introduced the situation to Zi Yan, and then briefly explained that with the disappearance of Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun, Ancient Dragon Island is now fragmented and lacks sufficient strength. If it were to encounter any forces attempting to become the new emperor, it would likely find itself imprisoned.

Chapter 166 Heading to the Cao Family (Happy New Year!)

"Alright, now that you've broken through to the Dou Zong level, let's set off!"

Xiao Fan glanced at Zi Yan. Now that she had broken through to the Dou Zong realm, she could start preparing to search for the Three Thousand Burning Flames. After all, in Saint Pill City, without going through the Pill Tower, the only way for Xiao Fan to find the star space where the Three Thousand Burning Flames were located was by relying on Zi Yan's spatial talent.

"Xiao Fan, where are we going?"

Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, Zi Yan nodded, then reached out and summoned the Dragon Seal floating above her head, which transformed into a stream of light and fell into Zi Yan's arms.

After listening to Zi Yan's words and thinking for a while, Xiao Fan did not immediately set off for Saint Pill City, but instead planned to deal with the Ye family's troubles first.

After all, the Ye family is about to lose its seat on the elders' seat, and even the Cao family, one of the five major families, has long been eyeing the Ye family covetously.

If Xiao Fan remembered correctly, it wouldn't be long before the Cao family would come to the Ye family to force a marriage.
