The Tenant's Rage

Under the system's explanation, Xiao Han finally understood that this world-crossing module wasn't just for free travel. Once he descended into a new world, he had to complete a World Mission first.

And after completing the World Mission, the system would not only randomly reward him with several high-value items from the current dungeon world, but also randomly elevate his Douqi cultivation or the realm of a certain skill.

Furthermore, in the mission world, Xiao Han could integrate all power systems, ignoring class restrictions.

For example, if Xiao Han crossed into Kamar-Taj, even if the magic power system was vastly different from Douqi, it couldn't stop him from learning magic; if Xiao Han crossed into a Xianxia world, he could also ignore the differences between Douqi and Zhenyuan and forcibly learn the immortal arts of that world's worldview.

And whatever Xiao Han learned would automatically convert into Dou Techniques. After returning to the main world of the Douqi Continent, he could even teach what he'd learned to the people around him.

With such great benefits, Xiao Han was naturally very satisfied.

But this cave was no place to linger. Xiao Han didn't bother checking the list of traversable worlds either; he needed to get out quickly.

Just as he was about to leave, a mischievous urge struck Xiao Han.

He turned around, drew his sword, and carved a few large characters onto the cave's rock wall.

"Kai Dad was here."

After a moment's thought, Xiao Han carved a few more words.

"Anyone who comes after me is my grandkid."

Looking at his crooked, wobbly handwriting, Xiao Han grinned wickedly and walked out of the cave.

He wondered what expression Xiao Yi Xian would have when she came to gather herbs, found this cave, and realized someone had beaten her to the supposed treasure.

Would she be furious, disappointed, or miserable like she was on her period?

Just thinking about it was amusing.

Xiao Yi Xian: ???

Looking up at the hundred-meter cliff above, since the rope had already burned through, there were only two ways to climb up.

One was to go deep into the Magical Beast Mountain Range and find another way out. But the mountain range was full of powerful Third and Fourth Rank Magical Beasts. With Xiao Han's cultivation as a Dou Practitioner, walking in there was practically a suicide mission.

Even Xiao Yan from the Original Work, with Old Man Yao protecting him, didn't dare venture too deep into the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

The second option was to cultivate the Purple Cloud Wings right now, use their flying ability to cross the steep cliff above, and charge up to the precipice he'd jumped down from in the first place.

Xiao Han wasn't an idiot. Without someone to protect him, he couldn't walk out of the Magical Beast Mountain Range alone. Which option to choose didn't even need thinking.

So, as soon as he stepped out of the cave entrance, he sat down cross-legged on the spot and took out the Flying Dou Technique he'd painstakingly obtained from his Storage Ring: Eagle Wings.

Untying the scroll's binding, the ancient scroll unfurled, and two pitch-black eagle wings, chilling to the bone, appeared before Xiao Han's eyes.

Because these eagle wings were painted on the scroll, their shape wasn't large, but they faintly emitted some heat. Judging by their peculiar appearance, they were clearly no simple painting.

The eagle wings were dark black, faintly tinged with purple cloud patterns. Looking closely, the twin wings seemed like black steel, possessing a special metallic texture. The feathers on the wings radiated a faint warmth.

Xiao Han lightly blew on them and was slightly startled. Under that gentle breeze, the feathers on the eagle wings actually fluttered like real wings, extremely magical.

Interesting!

Xiao Han was instantly filled with curiosity about this Flying Dou Technique.

"Black Flame Purple Cloud Eagle, Fifth Rank Flying Magical Beast. Legend says it possesses the sparse bloodline of the Ancient Phoenix. Its flying speed ranks among the top of all Flying Magical Beasts. Naturally cunning and ferocious, extremely hard to capture, it only lives in the Cloud Land Zone in the southern part of the continent."

"This scroll's technique is named Eagle Wings, also called Purple Cloud Wings. It was created by myself and several friends over three years. We finally managed to capture a Flame Purple Cloud Eagle, used a secret method to take its twin wings, and thus formed this scroll of Flying Dou Technique for others to cultivate. This technique was drawn with my Douqi before my death and can only be cultivated by one person. Remember this well!"

Xiao Han casually read out the annotations above.

"Only for one person to cultivate? Looks like this thing is a one-time consumable."

Xiao Han rubbed his smooth chin. "These Purple Cloud Wings are more like a Magic Treasure from a Xianxia worldview, refined from a part of a demon beast's body after killing it, rather than a Dou Technique."

"And although the Purple Cloud Wings have a method for circulating through the meridians, in essence, they're still a flying Magic Treasure."

Just as Xiao Han probed the eagle wings with his Soul Power, he clearly sensed a violent, ferocious soul hidden within them, filled with brutality.

According to Old Man Yao's explanation in the Original Work, this was probably caused by the secret method used to create the Flying Dou Technique back then. Mm, stripping the Flying Magical Beast's soul and wings apart, then fusing them together.

Although it had lost its self-awareness, the beast's instincts hadn't disappeared. Only by defeating the violent soul of the Purple Cloud Eagle upon contacting the Purple Cloud Wings could one truly subdue this Flying Dou Technique.

Xiao Han fell silent in contemplation. After a long while, he opened his eyes, manipulated his Soul Power, and fiercely slammed it into the Purple Cloud Wings technique scroll.

Since Xiao Yan could withstand the Purple Cloud Eagle's attack, there was no reason he, with Soul Power stronger than Xiao Yan's, couldn't!

Sinking his Soul Power into his sea of consciousness, the first thing Xiao Han saw was a massive purple ferocious bird, its wings stretching a hundred zhang wide, screeching sharply at him in a sound that could make one's soul tremble.

The terrifying sonic impact was like Fatty singing, drilling into his brain like an impact drill, desperately assaulting his mind.

Although his head felt like it was splitting, Xiao Han gritted his teeth and stubbornly refused to give the Purple Cloud Eagle any opening.

Seeing its attack ineffective, the Purple Cloud Eagle directly unleashed all the violent emotions it had accumulated over the years, trying to turn Xiao Han into a puppet that only knew how to kill.

In response, Xiao Han sneered and crooked his finger at the purple stupid bird.

"You—come here!"

Originally planning to endure this soul attack himself to temper his Soul Power, Xiao Han never expected that letting an outsider barge in would make the tenant inside his body so displeased!

Just as the Purple Cloud Eagle's Sha Eagle soul broke into Xiao Han's soul world, the Demon Armor in his Dantian seemed to be stimulated and instantly erupted!

Whether it was an illusion or not, Xiao Han felt an emotion filled with overwhelming killing intent constantly brewing within his Dantian.

"How... dare... you... lay... a hand... on... mine..."

ROAR!!!!!!

Even Xiao Han, who had lived with the Demon Armor day and night, found it hard to imagine that the terrifying roar, like that of a Peerless Ferocious Beast, had actually erupted from the Demon Armor itself.

BOOM!!!

RUMBLE!!!

The Dark Blue flames swept across Xiao Han's boundless soul world in a torrent, and he subconsciously shivered.

When he looked up, he saw a towering Azure Blue armored giant forcibly descending into his soul world, riding the Demonic Flame.

The Purple Cloud Eagle soul, acting purely on instinct, caught sight of the colossal Demon Armor behind Xiao Han and instinctively revealed fear, letting out constant cries of submission and mercy.

Yet, facing the submissive Purple Cloud Eagle soul, the Demon Armor said nothing. But the overwhelming killing intent bursting from it suggested it wished nothing more than to grind the little purple bird into dust.

BOOM!!!

The Demon Armor pointed a finger, and it was as if an apocalyptic strike fell from the heavens. The soul world for hundreds of thousands of miles around the Purple Cloud Eagle was flattened, and the eagle's soul instantly evaporated.

Just as the Purple Cloud Eagle soul was obliterated, a palm-sized tattoo of purple-black wings appeared on Xiao Han's back, signaling that he had fully mastered the Purple Cloud Wings and would never again fear their backlash.

Silently turning around, Xiao Han looked up at the towering Demon Armor standing proudly, his eyes filled with shock.

Thank goodness this was only within the soul world. If it were reality, wouldn't this Demon Armor be even more terrifying than a Dou Emperor?!

However, what Xiao Han didn't expect was that the massive armored giant stepped back, slowly knelt before him, propped itself up with its hands, then lowered its head and gradually approached Xiao Han, who was as small as a speck of dust, staring at him without a word.

Swallowing nervously, Xiao Han seemed to see two pairs of Dark Blue demonic pupils through the Demon Armor's helmet.

"Thank you."

For some reason, Xiao Han thanked it instinctively.

But the next moment, the Demon Armor suddenly spoke a sentence that made Xiao Han's scalp tingle and his mind nearly explode.

"Don't thank me... because... you are... mine..."

A hoarse, halting voice came from the Demon Armor, indistinguishable as male or female, scaring Xiao Han so much that his sphincter tightened.

Though he knew the Demon Armor had some intelligence, he never expected it could actually talk?

"You can speak?"

Xiao Han took a deep breath and subtly stepped back a few paces.

Whether it noticed Xiao Han's little move or not, the Demon Armor actually "laughed."

Even though he was only facing a cold, lifeless helmet, Xiao Han could somehow see the Demon Armor grinning, and this eerie scene filled him with terror.

"Why resist... my... power... from the day you... got my power... you've been... subconsciously... resisting..."

"Huh? When did that happen? I never resisted."

Xiao Han looked utterly bewildered.

"You... are... resisting..."

The Demon Armor's tone carried a hint of anger at Xiao Han's denial.

"I didn't."

Xiao Han felt a bit wronged.

"You... clearly... did... you never... fully summoned... me..."

Though it started out very angry, after the anger, the Demon Armor's tone turned aggrieved.

"I... have always... been protecting you..."

This sudden shift made Xiao Han pause, and then he felt an unbearably resentful gaze pressing down on him.

"Enough already, why are you acting like a bitter wife?" Xiao Han said, steeling himself.

Stared at by the Demon Armor's aggrieved eyes, Xiao Han felt utterly uncomfortable.

"Sigh—since the crisis is over, can you go back to the Dantian now?" Xiao Han sighed, looking at the Demon Armor and helplessly spreading his hands.

"I just... helped you... clean up... your mess... and now you want me to leave... too... too cruel..."

When it said this, the Demon Armor's emotion gave Xiao Han a feeling of indignation.

"Bullshit! I could have subdued that Purple Cloud Eagle myself. This time you just jumped out on your own whim. Alright, alright, I don't need you right now. Go back quickly. Come out when I call you."

At this moment, Xiao Han was exactly like a heartless scumbag. Though he could have indeed withstood the Purple Cloud Eagle's attack, if the eagle had fought to the death, he would have been injured in that exchange too.

"...Scram!"

Giving Xiao Han a deep look, the Demon Armor actually flipped him off, its gaze utterly innocent.

After this friendly farewell, Xiao Han returned to reality from the soul world.

He subconsciously touched his Lower Abdomen, where the Demon Armor lay motionless. If it weren't for it constantly absorbing and converting Xiao Han's Dou Qi, it would truly seem like a lifeless object.

The giant that had just displayed such might in the soul world seemed to have nothing to do with it at all.
