Possessed by my father, I was reborn and became the supreme ruler.

Elder Long glanced at Ye Yunjian: "From your conversation with your junior sister and the others, I know that you also had doubts about your master. From what you said, I always felt that he resembled someone I had met before." "Who is it?" Ye Yunjian asked.

“He was a young attendant by the side of the Xuanzong Ancestor back then, but I have never truly seen your master’s true form, so it’s hard to say,” Elder Long pondered.

"You have never seen Situ Jiuxiao's true form," Ye Yunjian asked curiously.

"Yes! Although he came to the Spirit Fire Cave to see you, I'm certain that it wasn't his true form that came." Elder Long's tone was resolute. "He practices a different kind of innate technique, but I can't tell you. You'll understand in the future."

Ye Yunjian's heart skipped a beat as he recalled the scene when Situ Jiuxiao used a secret technique to extract his soul and place it into a strange formation. Although he was at a critical juncture in his breakthrough, the fact that Situ Jiuxiao could so easily control him, who was at the Xuanhuang realm at that time, showed how terrifying this innate technique was.

"However, the Innate Technique, as a secret technique passed down by the Ancestor of Creation, actually has strict requirements for human cultivation. Just like the Nine Nether Profound Fire Technique, it has special requirements for the Profound Fire, requiring the cultivation to ignite a Profound Fire Volcano within the body."

"Fire, volcano?" Ye Yunjian was surprised. "Ignite a volcano within one's own body?" How strange!

"Yes, there are volcanoes on earth, and there are also volcanoes in the human body. The Nine Nether Profound Fire Technique uses the profound fire of volcanoes for cultivation, just like my Nine Nether Fire and the World-Destroying Spirit Fire. They are all profound fire flames, but mine is a true profound fire taken from volcanoes. That little bit of World-Destroying Spirit Fire just now was just a seed." Old Long stroked his beard, as if reciting a familiar story.

"If someone born with the Xuan Yin Spirit Vein and the Xuan Bone Body cultivates the Xuan Fire, it is possible for them to break through the Xuan Emperor realm, surpass the Xuan Emperor realm, and reach the Xuan Heaven realm. If they combine this with other innate techniques, then only the Creator Ancestor in the world can contend with them."

Unfortunately, this volcanic mystical fire is extremely rare. It gathers the mystical yang of heaven and earth and the mystical yin from the depths of the earth. After millions of years of changes, even the 'Ten Thousand Fires Mystical Saint Peak' only worships one type of mystical fire.

"You mean, if one cultivates this Profound Fire with the Innate Technique using the Profound Bone Body, one can greatly improve one's cultivation level?" Ye Yunjian suddenly remembered something, "...and even reach a level comparable to the Ancestor of Creation?"

"Theoretically, that's true, but the Innate Technique is a creation technique, so it's hard to say what level one can reach." Elder Long's expression was also filled with excitement. "If one can use the Innate Technique to absorb the Profound Fire, open the Gate of Creation, and unleash the power of destruction, then it is naturally not to be underestimated."

"If I cultivate this secret technique, will I be able to reach the level of Situ Jiuxiao's innate skill?" Ye Yunjian asked coldly.

"That also depends on your cultivation level. Right now, you only have room for improvement in your cultivation from the Profound Vein to the Profound Pill stage. Unless you use the Innate Technique to increase the attack power of your magic weapon, you won't be able to fight beyond your level at the same level. As for whether you can contend with Situ Jiuxiao, I can't say for sure." Elder Long thought for a long time and spoke carefully.

Ye Yunjian understood, but he was still worried. Now that his strength had reached this level, it was up to him whether he could save his senior and junior sisters from Situ Jiuxiao.

But he was really unwilling to give up. He never thought that despite his efforts, he was still just a little short.

However, the thought that he now knew some of Situ Jiuxiao's secrets gave him some confidence. This old thief, he hadn't expected him to be so cunning.

However, since he was already there, Ye Yunjian decided to make the best of it and refused to believe that he couldn't come up with a solution.

"So, you asked me to come here this time so that I can follow behind you and begin my cultivation?" Ye Yunjian knew that Elder Long wouldn't call him here so easily, nor would he take him on a cultivation journey for no reason.

Why should I? I'm no one to him, we're not related. I just accidentally released him from the fire cave, but that was unintentional on my part.

“I know you want to participate in the sect’s small secret realm, and I also know you need to go through the sect. I see a cause and effect in you, a deep-rooted hatred, a blood feud,” Elder Long said. “I am actually helpless in this world now, and I need your help to slowly adapt to this world.”

"So, is our relationship a kind of transaction?" Ye Yunjian asked.

"You could say that. I can help you become stronger, very quickly, and help you take revenge! I can get you and your junior sister out of danger from your master." Elder Long's face showed a resolute expression. "I also want revenge."

"Furthermore, as a descendant of the Fire Dragon Clan, I am worried that the barrier here is not far from being broken by the World-Destroying Spirit King, and a calamity is imminent for the human world." A trace of worry appeared on the Dragon Elder's forehead. "I always feel that there is a cause and effect involved, and there seems to be a force in the dark manipulating everything behind the scenes."

"I can help you, but with my current strength, it will probably take a very long time," Ye Yunjian said with some worry.

“I will help you,” said Elder Long. “Tonight, you can try out the Nine Netherworld Profound Fire Technique.”

Upon entering the flowing energy body, a scorching sensation permeated Ye Yunjian's body from the outside in. Along with the intense heat, spiritual energy and various information seeped into his meridians, slowly gathering within his body. As his body temperature rose, a layer of misty energy actually rose around his body.

After a night of cultivation, Ye Yunjian discovered that his cultivation had greatly improved, and he had actually broken through to the peak of the Profound Vein.

As dawn broke, the faint sound of roosters crowing could be heard, and Ye Yunjian then bid farewell to Elder Long.

Old Master Long smiled and said, "I have a favor to ask of you, and I hope you will grant it."

Ye Yunjian asked, "What kind of unreasonable request?"

Elder Long sighed, "I am old and have nowhere else to go. May I attach my Xuanhuo Sword as the soul of this magical weapon?"

Ye Yunjian was taken aback: "This... I'm afraid it's not a good idea."

Old Dragon laughed and said, "There's nothing wrong with it. I'm attached to your Xuanhuo Sword now, and I can help you in the future. Right now, this old man is homeless and has nowhere to go. Since you're a kind person, I'll agree."

After some initial hesitation, Ye Yunjian finally agreed to Elder Long's request.

This was originally a cause and effect from a previous life, so how could Ye Yunjian refuse? However, he remembered that he had not listened to Elder Long's advice and had been tricked into sowing discord, which led to Elder Long's death by sword and his own assassination by Situ Jiuxiao not long after. He was filled with regret.

In this life, I will naturally treat Elder Long well.

He had just returned to his room to rest when someone pushed open the door to check on him.

The visitor was none other than Si Tianxiang.

The last time Si Tianxiang was defeated by Ye Yunjian, I don't know why he still dared to come and see him.
