Battle Through the Heavens: Obtaining the Extraction System at the Start

Stretching lazily, Xiao Ling rose to his feet and loosened his somewhat sore, numb limbs.

Soul Perception spread out from between his brows, and more than half of Desert City appeared in Xiao Ling's mind.

After carefully searching, he found no trace of Zi Yan or Qing Lin in Stone Desert City. Xiao Ling shook his head and muttered, "Looks like those two little girls still haven't returned. But it's already been two and a half days. Qing Lin should have successfully contracted her first Snake Pet and awakened her Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils by now."

Putting the Medicine Cauldron back into his Ring, Xiao Ling looked around the room. Seeing that he had left nothing behind, he walked out of the Secret Chamber used for pill refinement.

After making his way through the winding passageways, Xiao Ling found a room meant for resting. It was likely a guest room Hai Bodong had prepared within the shop.

As soon as he entered, Xiao Ling lay down on the soft bed. His entire body relaxed, and his mind felt especially refreshed.

With nothing to do, Xiao Ling felt his hands itching. He needed to draw a few times, or he would feel stifled.

With a thought, Xiao Ling summoned the System Panel.

"System, open my personal panel."

Extraction Attempts: 11

Seeing that he still had eleven extraction attempts, Xiao Ling decided to go straight for a ten-pull. He silently said in his heart, "System, use ten extraction attempts."

[Ding... Congratulations, host. You have extracted 100,000 Gold Coins.]

[Ding... Congratulations, host. You have extracted 100,000 Gold Coins.]

[Ding... Congratulations, host. You have extracted 500,000 Gold Coins.]

[Ding... Congratulations, host. You have extracted one Dou Ling Pill.]

[Ding... Congratulations, host. You have extracted Huang Tian Di's Milk Can from his childhood in Perfect World.]

[Ding... Congratulations, host. You have extracted one Meteor God Weapon from Swallowed Star.]

With another thought, Xiao Ling began inspecting the items he had just extracted.

After storing the Gold Coins and pills in his Ring, Xiao Ling carefully examined the descriptions of the final two items.

[Milk Can: Used by Huang Tian Di during his childhood in Perfect World.]

Seeing that it was actually this item, Xiao Ling's mouth twitched. He said in disbelief, "I can't believe I actually drew this thing. Still, its greatest value is probably as a memento."

With a thought, a small, somewhat crudely made can appeared before Xiao Ling. He leaned forward and opened its lid, and a rich milky fragrance immediately assailed his nose.

Looking into the can, Xiao Ling saw that it was filled with milky-white beast milk.

Xiao Ling was even more astonished. He truly had not expected the beast milk inside to come along with it.

Under Xiao Ling's observation, the beast milk contained vast amounts of pure energy. Anyone below the Dou Ling realm could improve their physical constitution after drinking it. Its effect did not seem inferior to some Fourth-grade Pills.

Shaking his head, Xiao Ling thought, This beast milk can be sold or given to someone else to drink. But I can keep the can as a souvenir. That's not bad.

He stored the can filled with beast milk in the System Storage Space, then focused on the description of the final item.

[Meteor God Weapon: A psychic weapon from Swallowed Star. Its full name is "Heaven Burning Meteor God Spear" or "Nine Tribulations Heaven Burning Meteor God Spear." It is one of the nine great divine weapons wielded by Psychic Controllers, combining the Laws of Fire and Space within it.]

Reading the System's description, Xiao Ling was startled. It was actually a psychic weapon from Swallowed Star, one of the nine great divine weapons of Psychic Controllers. Moreover, its laws were the Laws of Fire and Space, the two laws most suited to him.

The nine great divine weapons of Psychic Controllers had a saying: "You needn't fear being unable to unleash your true strength. Fear only that you lack the ability to wield the nine great divine weapons at their true power."

Though Xiao Ling did not know whether he could comprehend the power of laws on the Dou Qi Continent, these two attributes were the most suitable for him.

There was no need to mention the Fire Attribute. The Dou Qi Continent lacked nothing more than all kinds of Heavenly Flames. As long as he continued devouring Heavenly Flames, the power of his Fire Attribute would only grow stronger.

As for the Law of Space, on the Dou Qi Continent, ordinary cultivators could come into contact with Space Power once they reached the Dou Zong realm. As their cultivation continued to rise, their mastery over Space Power would become increasingly refined. Dou Venerate experts could create spatial passages. Space Wormholes were constructed by Dou Venerate experts using Space Power. Dou Saints could directly open up space, and even having people live within it would be effortless.

The nine great divine weapons of Psychic Controllers were both the strongest and the weakest. They were strongest because they had nine forms, each more formidable than the last. They were weakest because they were exceedingly difficult to wield. For those with poor comprehension, an ordinary psychic weapon would be more effective.

With a wave of his hand, a dark-red spear appeared in Xiao Ling's grasp.

The Meteor God Weapon's ordinary form was a dark-red spear over two meters long, three centimeters in diameter, with a spearhead three inches and three-tenths long. It contained 10,081 dark-red miniature swords as thin as cicada wings. Every dark-red sword bore incomparably profound secret patterns of the origin laws of fire and space.

Holding it in his hand, Xiao Ling felt his Fire Attribute Dou Qi become even more active. As long as he used the Meteor God Weapon to unleash Fire Attribute attacks, their power would be enhanced.

As for aspects related to space, Xiao Ling felt nothing. After all, he was only a Dou Wang at present. It was still far too early for him to grasp Space Power.

With Xiao Ling's current Dou Wang cultivation, he could not even bring out the Meteor God Weapon's lowest level of power.

To truly control the Meteor God Weapon, he needed to reach at least the Dou Zong realm. Otherwise, he could only use it as a handy weapon.

Rubbing his chin, Xiao Ling muttered, "This extraction was a huge profit. I actually drew a weapon that can be used all the way to the Dou Di Realm. After so many extractions, the Meteor God Weapon is undoubtedly the most precious item I've obtained so far."

Xiao Ling shook his head and calmed his excited emotions. He muttered inwardly, It's still far too early to bring out the Meteor God Weapon's true power. I need to raise my strength as quickly as possible in the future. I can't let such a treasure gather dust in my hands.

With a thought, Xiao Ling stored the Meteor God Weapon in the System Space. He then took out a box of sleep-aiding incense from his Ring and placed it beside the bed. Breathing in the faint fragrance at his nose, Xiao Ling slowly drifted into sleep.

The next morning.

The sleeping Xiao Ling was awakened by a knock at the door.

Rubbing his slightly dazed eyes, Xiao Ling released his Soul Perception and quickly figured out the cause of the sound.

Sitting up from the bed, Xiao Ling tidied his clothes slightly before heading toward the entrance of the Map Shop.

Outside the Map Shop, Zi Yan and Qing Lin were chatting and laughing together.

Seeing that the Map Shop's door had not opened, Zi Yan said impatiently, "Is Xiao Ling still refining pills? How about the two of us just push the door open and go in? We've been searching for snake-type Magical Beasts everywhere these past two days, and I haven't gotten to eat any of the pills Xiao Ling refined."

Just then, the shop's doors were pushed open from within, and Xiao Ling walked out.

Upon seeing Xiao Ling, Zi Yan took several medicinal herbs from her Ring and held them out to him. She spoke impatiently, "Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling, hurry up and refine these herbs into pills for me. I've been exhausted these past two days, so I need to replenish my energy properly."

Xiao Ling accepted the herbs Zi Yan handed over and examined them in his hand. There was still some soil on them. They had likely been herbs Zi Yan found while helping Qing Lin search for snake-type Magical Beasts, using her innate talent for finding treasures.

After putting all the herbs into his Ring, Xiao Ling first took out a Porcelain Bottle filled with pills. He had prepared it beforehand.

Handing it to Zi Yan, he smiled. "You've worked hard, Zi Yan. Eat these pills first. Once we find the Heavenly Flame, I'll refine those herbs into pills for you. I won't pocket your herbs."

Taking the bottle of pills Xiao Ling handed her, Zi Yan nodded in satisfaction. She eagerly pulled out the stopper, took out a pill, and tossed it into her mouth.

Chewing the pill in her mouth, she mumbled, "Hehe, it wasn't that hard. Just don't forget to refine pills for me once we find the Heavenly Flame."

Seeing Zi Yan acting like such a little foodie, Xiao Ling could not help but laugh.

Turning his gaze away from Zi Yan, Xiao Ling looked at Qing Lin beside her. Sensing several auras around her that did not belong to Qing Lin, he asked curiously, "Qing Lin, it looks like your Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils have awakened. Did you feel any discomfort when subduing those snake-type Magical Beasts?"

Upon hearing Xiao Ling's question, Qing Lin first gave him a sweet smile and raised both wrists. A total of six little snakes were wrapped around them.

She answered Xiao Ling, "Young Master guessed correctly. Qing Lin has successfully awakened the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils. These are all Snake Pets Qing Lin has already contracted."

With a thought from Qing Lin, the little snakes coiled around her wrists dropped to the ground. Their bodies gradually grew larger, returning to their original sizes.

Under Xiao Ling's inspection, there were four second-order snake-type Magical Beasts, one third-order snake-type Magical Beast, and one Green Phosphorus Snake that had reached the fourth order.

Rubbing Qing Lin's little head, Xiao Ling praised her, "As expected of Qing Lin. You can even subdue Fourth-Order Magical Beasts now. Maybe one day, Qing Lin will have to protect me instead."

Hearing Xiao Ling's praise and feeling the warm touch on her head, Qing Lin shyly lowered her head. A faint blush had already spread across her cheeks, making her look especially alluring.

She replied to Xiao Ling, "When Qing Lin becomes very strong, Qing Lin will protect Young Master's safety."

Hearing Qing Lin's reply, Xiao Ling smiled faintly. Although Qing Lin's cultivation speed would certainly be astonishing with the help of the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, far beyond that of ordinary cultivators,

with his foreknowledge and the System's extractions, Xiao Ling was confident that his strength would always remain above Qing Lin's. In any case, with a cultivation method like Fen Jue, devouring Heavenly Flames to raise his cultivation was something ordinary people could never match.

Shaking his head and no longer thinking about such things, Xiao Ling withdrew his hand from Qing Lin's head and said to Zi Yan and Qing Lin, "Since both of you have returned, and I've already prepared the pills needed to devour the Heavenly Flame, we'll set out next to find the Heavenly Flame hidden within the Tagor Desert."

Upon hearing this, Qing Lin and Zi Yan both nodded, expressing their agreement with Xiao Ling's arrangement.
