Chapter 351: Promoted to Dou Zong; Meet Tai Sect Disciple Again
Chapter 351: Promoted to Dou Zong; Meet Taiyi Sect Disciple Again
-------
For Dou Huang to break through to the Dou Zong realm, the amount of vital energy required is naturally huge. It will take a very long time to slowly absorb it from the heaven and earth, so Xiao Yan naturally would not do that.
He was not worried about his vitality during this breakthrough.
The huge vortex that appeared in the sky was nothing but a reflection of the violent changes in the fighting spirit in his body. Swallowing vital energy from all directions was nothing but instinct, as natural as breathing.
If you want to break through, this won't work, it's too slow.
Gotta eat meat!
He swallowed a small piece of divine crocodile meat in one gulp, and his body suddenly swelled up like a balloon.
This is the good stuff left over from last time. After all, he couldn’t eat all the divine crocodile meat that Ye Fan sent him last time in one breath. That was the flesh and blood of a great saint of the demon clan, and the vitality it contained was too abundant.
Good things should be saved for later use, and now is the right time to use them.
Combined with some elixirs to regulate and transform his vital energy, the divine crocodile meat that melted in his mouth turned into a vital energy bomb in his body. The surging vital energy made every pore of his body spew out energy towards the outside world.
The entire Wutan City, and even places further away, could feel the movement of Xiao Yan's breakthrough.
The heaven and earth seemed to be shaking like a rag, and the vital energy from all directions surged in like a storm.
The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.
Ordinary people just thought it was a sudden strong wind and rushed home to collect their clothes.
However, Ling Ying, a veteran high-level Dou Huang, noticed that there seemed to be a giant beast breathing in and out in this world, and the space was shaking with his breathing.
Is this Young Master Xiao Yan breaking through to the Dou Zong realm?
He saw the familiar figure flying out from the retreat and straight into the sky. Judging from the aura, it seemed that the Dou Huang was breaking through to the Dou Zong realm.
However, he couldn't be sure, because he, Ling Ying, had seen many Dou Zongs, but it was impossible for an ordinary Dou Zong to have such a strong spatial influence. It seemed as if the sky was about to fall!
Above the clouds, Xiao Yan's figure disappeared into the dark clouds, and only the whistling sound of the wind remained between heaven and earth.
In Ling Ying's eyes, the space above the clouds was disordered, and waves of space were constrained in the sky, like a mythical beast Kunpeng swallowing up the heaven and earth and crushing the chaotic clouds.
If it falls to the ground, the entire Wutan City may be destroyed several times.
……
Xiao Yan felt the changes in himself. After absorbing and refining the drop of true blood given by the group leader, his control over the force of space had indeed improved by leaps and bounds. Every move he made could disrupt the space around him, and he had the power to command heaven and earth!
For him, breaking through to the Dou Zong realm was just a natural thing. He had all the three, body, soul, and energy, so he successfully stepped into this realm with the other half of his foot. The Dou Qi in his body surged like a volcanic eruption.
The fighting spirit surged and gushed out in the body, strengthening the flesh and even condensing into a crystal-like existence, covering the meridians.
The existence of this crystallized fighting spirit, especially the control over the power of space at this level, made the width of his meridians expand more than ten times at once.
Naturally, there is not much change in appearance, but when the power of space is applied to the meridians, it can produce the effect of space magnification, and the fighting spirit that can be called upon becomes more powerful, as if a one-way street has suddenly become a two-way four-lane road.
Moreover, when he has reached this realm, he can control the force of space with every move he makes. Even if the wings of fighting spirit behind him are retracted, he can still walk in the air without sinking.
For a Dou Zong strongman, walking in the air is his hallmark; this is not a fighting skill, but an instinct.
He raised his hand, and a piece of space was distorted. The spatial fluctuations that spread out for thousands of meters caused the wind to surge rapidly. A large amount of spatial fluctuations gathered here. The space here was magnified thousands of times, accommodating more air, and gradually compressed into a sphere of several dozen meters in radius.
But once this space control is released instantly, an air bomb will explode in the sky, and the violent airflow will make Xiao Yan's clothes flutter.
This is just a simple use of the power of space after entering the Dou Zong realm, making the space bigger or smaller. With one step, the earth can be shrunk to an inch, or with a wave of the hand, a dense space fluctuation can be arranged, making the world seem close yet far away.
Xiao Yan was getting familiar with his current strength, especially his control over the force of space, which allowed him to perform many secret techniques that he had not been able to use before.
After becoming a little familiar with the feeling of controlling the power of space, Xiao Yan quickly put the secret techniques and experience in the chat group into use.
He created a chaotic space wave, wantonly ravaging the sky. The constantly changing space could cause terrible harm to those in it.
He even used the ancient secret art of eternal exile. The power of space on his arms was concentrated to the extreme, like two sharp blades, cutting through space and tearing a crack leading to the unknown, which could exile the enemy into it, erasing all traces of space, and making it impossible for them to ever find their way back.
However, he was still reluctant to use this move, as it consumed a lot of energy and could not be used in actual combat at all.
To exile the enemy and prevent him from returning, there are many spatial mysteries involved, and he still needs to learn them slowly.
The Void Technique in the Void Sutra was also difficult for him to use. It was not as simple and easy as traveling through space in Ye Fan and the group leader's world. This was probably because the worlds were different.
At this level, the way of fighting is very different from before. He also needs to familiarize himself with it and practice various space-related secret techniques. He must not waste the resources of the chat group.
At least he should learn moves like teleportation to travel through the void. He has long wanted such cool moves.
"Teacher, I'm a Dou Zong!"
"Well, that's right. A young Dou Zong like you is quite rare in the entire Dou Qi Continent."
Only some big forces can cultivate a young Dou Zong like Xiao Yan.
But the problem is that those young Dou Zongs have been practicing since childhood and will not have any obstacles. Unlike Xiao Yan, his Dou Qi was sucked away by himself for three years, and during these three years, he has not made any progress but has regressed.
Therefore, his current achievements are even more difficult.
Well... with the help of the chat group, it doesn't seem that difficult.
"Is there a Dou Zong in the Jia Ma Empire?"
"I'm not sure, but the probability of there being a Dou Zong is not high. You can now say that you are the best master in the Jia Ma Empire." Yao Chen said.
With Xiao Yan's soul strength, there is no problem in giving him this title.
"The best master in the Gama Empire?"
Xiao Yan didn't expect that he would get first place in a region so easily. It sounded pretty good and very impressive.
"Hey, the best master in the Jia Ma Empire, isn't it time for you to learn the art of alchemy from me? Otherwise, your spiritual power will be wasted."
Yao Chen had his own considerations, and then said: "Your soul power is strong enough, you can improve your alchemy skills and help me refine some pills. If I want to be resurrected, I also need to restore my soul first."
Xiao Yan nodded immediately, "Okay, teacher!"
The teacher's resurrection was finally on the agenda, and Xiao Yan was naturally very happy that he could be of some help.
……
Return to the ruins.
Fang Han had been here for some time and had raided several demon nests, turning their treasures into his own wealth. However, what he had gained was just so-so. There was nothing too shocking, no Three Thousand Great Daos, no powerful magic weapons, not even a Taoist weapon. Fang Han also didn't think highly of other things.
However, he did find a few pieces of the World Tree fragments he had been longing for, but they were all very small, with the largest piece only the size of a palm. They slightly increased the ability of his World Tree to absorb the vital energy of the fairyland, but it could only be said that it was better than nothing.
The huge piece of World Tree fragment that he had imagined to be bigger than a human, or even bigger than a house, was nowhere to be seen.
There was no big gain, but the remaining pills, magic weapons, and materials made Fang Han feel that he had wasted his time here.
This made him consider whether he should leave Guixu.
At least we can go to Senior Sister Fang Qingxue's overseas cave, where there is a water-filled demon king sealed. That demon king masters the great cutting technique, one of the three thousand great ways. If we can subdue that demon king, it can be considered a decent gain.
Fang Han was meditating and practicing in a demon castle, surrounded by an ancient city. He had no idea how many demons there were here, but at this moment it was completely quiet, without a single demon.
That’s because the hundreds of thousands of demons here have been captured by Fang Han and put into his magic weapon, and wiped out.
During the time in Guixu, he became more and more skilled in capturing demons. He would first observe and spy on the situation secretly. Once he was sure that there was no demon god from the secret realm of immortality, he would immediately attack and sacrifice the Yellow Spring Map, using the Yellow Spring water vapor and the Avici demonic energy to blockade the entire nest of demons. He would capture all the demons and confine them in his magic weapon to work.
After he cleared out the demons here, he practiced in seclusion here and comprehended some of the demons' magical powers. Although he did not practice it, it was very useful as a reference.
In front of him, there were more than a dozen open boxes, which contained some purple-black crystals with psychedelic colors. At first glance, it seemed as if one was glimpsing into an upside-down and chaotic space.
This is the Void Crystal, a material used to make storage bags or other storage magic weapons. It is relatively rare in the Xuanhuang World.
The Void Crystals sold by some Chambers of Commerce in the Xuanhuang World are usually obtained from outside the domain. Some caravans have extraordinary means and can travel to and from the star space.
This material is very rare and expensive, but the only ones who possess it are some demons at the fifth level of magical power. It is considered a big surprise among the monsters, so Fang Han naturally accepted it all with a smile.
The most famous sect in the Void Crystal Business is the Taiyi Sect, the number one immortal sect in the Xuanhuang World.
It is said that they found a Void Crystal Planet outside the domain. There are many Void Crystal veins underground. As long as people are sent to mine, a steady supply of Void Crystals can be transported to the sect.
Therefore, almost every disciple of Taiyi Sect has a storage bag magic weapon, which is considered a benefit of the sect.
This is much better than the Yuhua Sect.
Fang Han did not use these void crystals, but planned to keep them. It was not that he wanted to sell these crystals for money or make magic weapons, because he had the World Tree breathing in the vitality of the immortal world, so he had no shortage of money or storage bags, but he planned to use them for cultivation.
Because some magical powers related to space require the power of the void to practice, such as the Great Devouring Technique.
However, he successfully cultivated the Great Devouring Technique with the help of the Kunpeng Giant Egg, so he did not need these void crystals for the time being. But they might be useful in the future when he cultivates the other three thousand great ways related to space.
"I have collected so many magical skills during this period that I can compile them into a magic book."
Fang Han was meditating here to count the demonic books seized from the several demon kings here.
During this period of time, several demon nests were raided. In each demon nest, there were more or less a few demon kings with magical powers and secret realms, and each demon king had some magical powers.
He collected them all, and when added together, he already had hundreds of magical powers.
"With such little magical power, you want to compile a magic code? If you tell others about it, I'm afraid everyone will laugh at you." Yan Wuqing laughed.
He has recently used the immortal energy exhaled by the World Tree to refine various elixir materials and has recovered a lot of strength. In terms of mana alone, he is equivalent to an ordinary Jindan cultivator, but he cannot be compared with a pervert like Fang Han.
However, the second magic weapon of Huangquantu, the Bridge of Naihe, could not be reproduced due to lack of vitality.
"We should always have ideas, but these devilish magical powers are always cultivated by harming people's lives, and these demons have fallen into my hands. This is retribution." Fang Han will naturally not show mercy when suppressing these demons. He locked them all in magic weapons as coolies and used magic to subdue evil.
"There is no such thing as retribution. There are so many free demons in this world." Yan was disdainful of Fang Han's words. After all, he was the demon.
"But there is cause and effect in this world, isn't there? Isn't the second of the Three Thousand Great Ways the Great Cause and Effect Technique?" Fang Han retorted.
"Isn't the Great Cause and Effect Technique still controlled by someone? Techniques are techniques...someone is coming!" Yan suddenly reminded halfway through his speech.
"Yeah." Fang Han also noticed that a group of uninvited guests had broken into this Guixu space.
So he immediately put away his things, went into the Yellow Springs Map, hid himself, and planned to see the situation first.
A group of disciples from immortal sects wearing Taoist robes broke in here. Each of them was quite powerful. Several of them had golden elixirs on their heads, and they shed magical lights to protect their bodies. Some of them were even stronger than before.
The weakest was a cultivator who had reached the sixth level of supernatural power. His supernatural powers were condensed into talismans, and each of them had surging magic power. Some of them were injured, as if they had just experienced a great battle.
After this group of twenty or thirty people came here through a chaotic spatial passage, they suddenly relaxed a little.
"Brother Yang Wenyi, there doesn't seem to be any demons here."
A Jindan disciple checked the place and said, "There is not even a weakest demon here. It seems that they have all left or been swept away by someone."
A disciple wearing a black dragon robe looked extraordinary in the crowd. He looked around and said, "Well, there was a big battle here not long ago. Someone must have cleared out the demons here. Well, let's rest here for a while. Everyone, take pills and regulate your breathing to recover your magic power."
Upon hearing this, everyone chose a place, meditated in groups of three or four, and took out pills to restore their magic power.
Fang Han has already entered the Yellow Springs Map. A dark mist has obscured the Yellow Springs Map. He is concealed in the shadows.
These were a group of disciples from the Taiyi Sect. Fang Han thought that he had a strong connection with the Taiyi Sect and had met them again.
Considering that he is now a wanted criminal of Taiyi Sect and has been issued some kind of Heavenly Dao killing order, it would be better for him not to have direct contact with these Taiyi Sect disciples.
He wanted to observe secretly to find out what these Taiyi Sect disciples were doing here. Were they here to find him?
It is unlikely that they are here to find Fang Han. After all, these people are not enough for him to fight, and Taiyi Sect would not send them to deliver him.
That's something else important.
The strongest person here should be Senior Brother Yang Wenyi, but Fang Han is hiding carefully now, and he is not sure if there are other people from Taiyi Sect nearby, so it is not easy to scan the other party's cultivation level in a big way, so it is difficult to judge the other party's strength.
But he estimated that the other party was at least a person with the eighth level of wind and fire supernatural powers, and even cultivated the Dharma image of heaven and earth, otherwise those Taiyi Sect disciples in the Jindan realm would not be so respectful to him.
Fang Han waited for a while and indeed heard them discussing the operation.
A Taiyi Sect disciple recovered a lot of his magic power after taking some elixirs and meditating, so he asked Yang Wenyi.
"Brother, these demons are so cunning. They actually set a trap and ran away. What should we do next?"
"This is a trial." Yang Wen said calmly.
"My Taiyi Sect has occupied the Void Crystal Planet for sixty years, and they have been coveting it for a long time. This time, an extraterritorial demon god made a move and took away a large number of Void Crystals from our territory. However, they could not escape directly to the extraterritorial starry sky and were blocked by a deputy sect leader. They could only sneak into my Xuanhuang World from Guixu. What we have to do is to wipe them out before they escape from Guixu. This is a good opportunity for everyone to earn merit!"
Void crystal?
When Fang Han heard this, he thought to himself that this was really like someone sending you a pillow just when you feel sleepy!
It is very inconvenient for group members to practice the Great Devouring Technique because they do not have ready-made Kunpeng eggs. However, if they have a large number of void crystals, then the process of practicing the Great Devouring Technique will be greatly shortened.
Fang Han himself achieved success, so naturally he also had to consider his group members. They needed this kind of resources to practice, and he didn't know if they had such things.
Moreover, the magical powers and the Three Thousand Great Ways of his own world would definitely be most convenient to cultivate using his own resources.
In addition, the Three Thousand Great Ways like the Great Art of Conferring the Gods require the collection of six kinds of mysterious energy to practice, and it is likely that he will be the only one who can find a way in the future.
So to be honest, he had some thoughts about this batch of Void Crystals that were looted by the demons.
After all, it was the Taiyi Sect that was unable to protect these resources, and they were snatched away by the Heavenly Demon. It is the duty of our disciples to wipe out the Heavenly Demon.
As for those Void Crystals, they will naturally be my spoils of war after I have annihilated the Heavenly Demon. They have nothing to do with you, Taiyi Sect. You should report your losses accordingly.
"How come I'm so good at making excuses?" Fang Han felt like he had become a bad person.
However, after hearing the news, he had some ideas about this batch of void crystals. He just needed to be careful. He didn't know how many masters in Taiyi Sect were paying attention to this matter.
According to Senior Brother Yang Wenyi, it seems that there is only a deputy leader of Taiyi Sect in charge, so it seems we can give it a try.
“Yes, although the demon is ferocious, the sect should give a large amount of merit this time. I should be able to earn enough merit this time to exchange for the practice method of Black Sun Wind Disaster.” said a Taiyi Sect disciple with the sixth level of magical power.
Merit?
Fang Han heard that all disciples of Taiyi Sect have a merit book, and they start accumulating merit when they are still outer or inner sect disciples.
You can gain merits by helping the common people, punishing evildoers, or eliminating demons and defending justice, and then exchange them for some magical powers of cultivation, or other things in the sect. It is very formal.
Fang Han: Why do I feel that Yuhua Sect is a bit of a makeshift group? Look at how formal Taiyi Sect is.
Although it is hard to say about the personal moral level of Taiyi Sect's disciples, and Fang Han also feels that they are a bit too arrogant, it does not prevent him from thinking that Taiyi Sect's system is good, at least better than the laissez-faire attitude of the Yuhua disciples.
“Hahahaha, after exchanging for the cultivation method of the Black Sun Storm, that’s when the suffering begins!”
Unexpectedly, this disciple's words actually caused others to laugh.
"That's right. If you want to practice the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations, you must first go through the tribulations."
"Gathering the energy of the Three Calamities is not an easy task. Don't think that you are complete once you have stepped through this threshold. Hahaha, there is still a long way to go. If you don't gather energy for several generations, don't even think about achieving success."
The senior brothers who had experienced this all laughed at the naivety of the younger brother.
The Taiyi Sect's disaster technique is powerful, but it is not easy to practice.
“Practicing is like sailing against the current. There is no time to relax.”
Yang Wen sighed, then summoned a top-grade flying sword. The sound of the sword rang out, and the other Taiyi Sect disciples immediately formed a formation and entered combat mode.
The space here in Guixu is very complicated, with various spaces folded and disordered. A group of demons suddenly appeared in the passage in another direction, full of murderous aura.
Several great demon kings above the Jindan realm, led dozens of demon kings and hundreds of thousands of ordinary demons and poured in.
"Hehehe, they are disciples of Taiyi Sect, kill them!" the Great Demon King ordered.
The demons under his command rushed forward immediately. Ordinary demons were illusory bodies, overlapping like ghosts. They connected together, covering the sky and the sun, turning into a dark shadow sky that enveloped them.
"Form a demon-suppressing formation to slay demons and monsters!"
The disciples of Taiyi Sect all began to fight back, but as a bystander, Fang Han said that Taiyi Sect did not seem to have the upper hand.
If they can't defeat them, as a disciple of the immortal way, I will help them no matter what.
Of course, all the spoils will be yours.
