Green-Clad Woman

Xiao Tian saw this and said nothing, simply putting it away.

He opened the third box. Inside was still a yellow scroll: "Mystic Rank High Grade: Lion's Roar."

Xiao Tian gave it a brief look. It was quite similar to the Thunder Lion he cultivated, but it could not compare to the Thunder Lion given by the system. The one from the system would increase in damage as his Spirit Thunder grew.

"You can have this. I don't care for it. Once you learn it, you can use it as a trump card. At least you'll have the ability to protect yourself." Xiao Tian casually tossed the scroll to Xiao Yi Xian.

Xiao Yi Xian carefully caught the scroll and looked at Xiao Tian. "You don't need it? This is a Mystic Rank High Grade Dou Technique. Outside, people would fight until their heads split open for it, yet in your hands, you throw it away as casually as trash."

"We've taken everything. Let's go. It's time to get out. What are your plans?" Xiao Tian said, looking at the now-empty Stone Chamber.

"I plan to return to Ten Thousand Medicines Hall."

Hearing Xiao Yi Xian's words, Xiao Tian looked at her. "You're still going back? The mercenaries who came out with you and the Young Wolf Head Leader are dead. Aren't you afraid the leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group will make things difficult for you?"

"Once I return to Green Mountain Town, I'll be safe. That's because the other two leaders of the three great mercenary groups both owe me favors, and Hall Master Yao of Ten Thousand Medicines Hall, who hired me, is also a Dou Master. What about you?"

"Me? I plan to go deeper into the Monster Mountain Range and take a look. Let's head out now."

The two walked toward the cave entrance. After about ten minutes, they arrived at the opening. Xiao Tian displayed the Thunder Peng Wings. "Come here. We'll fly straight up."

"You're not allowed to grope me." After saying that, she walked to Xiao Tian's side and wrapped her arms around him.

"Hold on tight." Xiao Tian wrapped an arm around Xiao Yi Xian's slender waist. The wings on his back flapped, and he shot quickly up the cliff.

The whooshing of the wind sounded beside her ears. Xiao Yi Xian raised her head and looked at Xiao Tian's face, feeling the warmth coming from his body. A strange glimmer flashed through her beautiful eyes.

After reaching the cliff, Xiao Tian did not stop. He flew directly toward Green Mountain Town. The road from the cliff to Green Mountain Town was basically only haunted by First or Second Order Magical Beasts, so Xiao Tian was not worried.

They flew high through the air all the way to the edge of the Monster Mountain Range. Xiao Tian slowly descended and landed steadily. The hand on Xiao Yi Xian's waist lightly squeezed as he teased, "Still not letting go? Are you planning to keep hugging me? How about I carry you and fly a little longer?"

"Then I'll go first. Take care of yourself." Xiao Yi Xian hurriedly broke free from Xiao Tian's embrace and walked away, embarrassed and annoyed.

"You're going the wrong way. Green Mountain Town is on the other side."

"I... know. I was just checking if there were any Medicinal Herbs over there. I'm leaving."

Looking at Xiao Yi Xian, bashful and flustered as she ran toward Green Mountain Town, Xiao Tian shook his head in amusement. The Thunder Peng Wings on his back flapped, and he rose into the air, flying straight into the Monster Mountain Range.

After parting from Xiao Yi Xian, Xiao Tian returned once more to the treasure cave. He took out Medicinal Herbs such as Mystic Sky Grass, Purple Heart Vine, and Wood Spirit Flower, then used the Strange Fire to condense a cauldron. With a wave of his hand, he tossed the Medicinal Herbs into the Medicine Cauldron to refine them.

After all the Medicinal Herbs were refined, Xiao Tian controlled the differently colored powders and liquids, slowly fusing them within the flames.

A faint pill fragrance drifted out from the Strange Fire Cauldron. The cauldron gradually dispersed, revealing a purple Medicinal Pill inside. Xiao Tian reached out, and the Medicinal Pill landed in his palm.

"The Fourth Grade Mystic Spirit Pill is done." Xiao Tian looked at the Medicinal Pill in his hand and smiled, then tossed it into his mouth.

The Mystic Spirit Pill was a Medicinal Pill recorded in the Pill Book. Ranked Fourth Grade, it allowed a Dou Master to break through one One-Star Realm without any side effects.

The Medicinal Pill turned into a surge of energy and was absorbed by the Qi Cyclone. The Dou Qi around Xiao Tian fluctuated for about the time it took to drink a cup of tea before gradually calming. Xiao Tian's realm had also reached Seven Star Dou Master.

Two months later, in a certain forest within the Monster Mountain Range.

Xiao Tian faced off against a snake-like Magical Beast.

The Third Order Crimson Cloud Python opened its mouth, venom on its fangs, and bit straight at Xiao Tian. Xiao Tian circulated Ground Shrinking to an Inch and instantly moved to the side.

Seeing its attack miss, the Crimson Cloud Python raised its snake tail and lashed out at Xiao Tian with Divine Dragon Tail Swing. Xiao Tian gripped the Long Halberd in both hands and hacked straight at the snake tail.

A tremendous force came from the snake tail, knocking Xiao Tian back more than ten steps. His hands went numb. "This beast's strength is really great, and both its head and tail can be used to attack. It's impossible to guard against."

As for the Crimson Cloud Python, its snake tail was nearly severed by the Long Halberd. Under the pain, the Crimson Cloud Python was enraged. It raised its head and flicked its tongue at Xiao Tian, making a "hiss hiss" sound. Its crimson eyes grew even bloodier, filled with anger.

After opening its mouth and spraying out a stream of venom, the Crimson Cloud Python quickly swept across the ground, constantly closing in on Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian hurriedly avoided the venom. Although the Crimson Cloud Python was the lowest level among Third Order Magical Beasts, its venom had a paralytic effect and carried high heat. Even a Four Star Dou Grandmaster would be on the verge of death if touched by it and could only wait to die.

While Xiao Tian dodged the venom attack, the Crimson Cloud Python had already reached him. Man and snake quickly clashed, exchanging dozens of moves in an instant. The surrounding trees were snapped, dust flew everywhere, and the Crimson Cloud Python's injured snake tail broke off completely.

Using the force from colliding with the snake head, he shot directly into the air. "I've figured out your strength, and the training is about enough. Your mission should be complete now."

Xiao Tian raised the Long Halberd in his hand sideways above his head. A Dou Qi Gauze Robe appeared over his body, and Dou Qi flowed through him, pouring endlessly into the Long Halberd as he slashed diagonally down at the Crimson Cloud Python.

"Three Styles of Heavenly Thunder: Moon Slash."

The Long Halberd swung out a deep-green crescent slash over ten feet long, radiating an enormous pressure as it cut toward the Crimson Cloud Python.

The Crimson Cloud Python sensed the arrival of death and opened its mouth to condense a huge ball of red venom. The venom shot out, but the instant it collided with the crescent, it was obliterated by the aura and Thunder on it.

The green light passed through the Crimson Cloud Python, instantly splitting its snake head and half its body in two. Finally, the green light struck the ground. After a loud boom, massive cracks spread out like a spiderweb, and the Crimson Cloud Python's body was blasted directly into chunks.

"Might I ask what guidance the friend in the tree has for me?" Xiao Tian held the Long Halberd in hand, his gaze sharp as he looked toward a distant large tree.

From the tree Xiao Tian was looking at flew a woman in green-white clothing. Her Three Thousand Green Silks were pinned high by a Phoenix Hairpin. She held a slender sword, and behind her was a pair of green Dou Qi wings.

The green figure gradually approached and slowly descended, landing three meters away from Xiao Tian.

Seeing the newcomer's appearance and figure clearly, Xiao Tian could not help but sigh. "In the north there is a beauty, peerless and independent."

The Green-Clad Woman gave off a solemn and elegant feeling, her actions and bearing revealing a noble air.

Looking at the person before him, Xiao Tian had already confirmed her identity. With her Wind Attribute Aura, coupled with Dou Emperor strength and such looks, as well as that noble and elegant temperament, there was only one person like her in the entire Jia Ma Empire. She was also his next target.

"May I ask your name, Your Excellency? What guidance do you have for me?" Xiao Tian controlled the Thunder Halberd to disperse and looked at the person before him as he spoke.
