On this day, after Xiao Yan had been flying with the Purple Cloud Wings for a full half month, the monotonous, towering mountains below began to thin out. At the edge of his vision, a pitch-black plain, like a black line, completely separated the outside world from the inside world.

"This is the Black Domain Great Plain?"

As he watched the black line gradually expand in his vision, Xiao Yan's tired and travel-worn face suddenly became energetic, and a relieved smile spread from the corners of his mouth.

This Black Domain Great Plain is the gateway to the Black Corner Region. Once you step into this place, you enter a chaotic world that is completely out of step with the outside world.

Most people might find it difficult to adapt when they enter.

But this absolutely does not include Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian.

One used fire, the other poison; when it came to destroying corpses and covering up evidence, no one had a more uniquely natural talent than them.

After scanning his surroundings, Xiao Yan slowly lowered his body. Although the Black Corner Region was right in front of him, he did not immediately choose to enter it.

Given his current somewhat exhausted state, entering that perilous environment would not be an unwise choice. He shouldn't let the presence of the Old Yao doctor as a safety net lead him to develop a complacent and reckless attitude.

These past few days, flying with Xiao Yi Xian has consumed a lot of Dou Qi, not to mention the mental strain.

To be honest, he really wished he had some kind of flying artifact for transportation, or even a flying magical beast would do!

Flying non-stop is just too tiring.

Holding Xiao Yi Xian in his arms, he slowly descended into a mountain forest. After quickly surveying the area and finding no trace of human or animal presence, he felt relieved. He found a secluded spot, sat cross-legged, and began forming hand seals while closing his eyes slightly.

Xiao Yi Xian stood by his side, keeping watch over their surroundings.

These days, she hasn't had much to do. When she's sleepy, Xiao Yan holds her to sleep, and when she wakes up, she carries Xiao Yan to keep going. She only has a little bit of work to do when Xiao Yan needs to get off to relieve his mental fatigue.

As Xiao Yan entered a meditative state, faint energy fluctuations began to emanate from his body. A subtle suction force rapidly drew energy from the surrounding space into his body, which was then refined and infused into the liquid energy within the vortex, which had been reduced to only a few drops due to the depletion of his Dou Qi.

The quiet cultivation lasted for a full two and a half hours before the faint energy fluctuations around Xiao Yan gradually weakened and finally dissipated completely.

A quasi- Earth Tier Cultivation Method is ultimately not an Earth Tier Cultivation Method. Although the amount of Dou Qi stored and the quality of the Dou Qi produced are quite good, completely comparable to a true Earth Tier Cultivation Method, the only problem is that the speed of absorbing energy and restoring Dou Qi is a bit slow.

All things considered, it's not bad.

Anyway, when it comes to restoring your Dou Qi, you can either not rush it and let it recover slowly, or you can rush it and just take some drugs.

For Xiao Yan, the impact wasn't significant.

"For the journey ahead, we must use the Purple Cloud Wings as little as possible. Even in the Black Corner Region, Flying Dou Technique are rare, and they can be forcibly taken away. If we encounter any powerful individuals, they might become greedy and kill us for our goods."

The voice of the Old Yao resounded in Xiao Yan's heart.

"Alright..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded somewhat helplessly.

Anyway, the most time-consuming part of the journey is over. Although the Black Corner Region is quite large, it's not too far from the Jia Nan Academy from Xiao Yan's current location. While he can't use his Dou Qi Horse Transformation, hiring a magical beast carriage to travel isn't difficult.

Moreover, we also need to collect the medicinal materials for Elder Hai to refine the Purple Spirit Recovery Pill.

After all, even a Dou Huang expert personally went to the Xiao Family to secretly take care of them, so Xiao Yan naturally had to keep his promise to Elder Hai in mind.

However, there's a small problem: the map Elder Hai gave him didn't have a precise picture of the Black Corner Region's interior. Therefore, Xiao Yan now has to get a new map of the Black Corner Region.

So Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian set off again, and it wasn't until evening that they finally found a small tribe in their field of vision.

The two slowed their pace and walked towards the gate of the tribe.

Having come into such close contact, Xiao Yan glanced around and discovered that the tribe was actually quite large, with at least a hundred tents of various sizes stretching out in a row. Judging from the constant noise coming from inside, it seemed to be quite lively.

As Xiao Yan slowly approached the tribe's gate, his brows suddenly furrowed. He then reached out and, with a strange flick of his wrist, caught the arrow that had suddenly shot towards him.

He immediately curled his lips into a cold, sharp smile, turned his body, and hurled the arrow with great force, as if launching a javelin!

Laugh!

The arrow shot back with a sharp, rapid whooshing sound, even faster than when it had been fired!

The next moment, the sound of an arrow piercing flesh rang out, followed by a scream.

"I'm just passing through and wanted to resupply. What do you mean by this?"

Xiao Yan glanced coldly at a certain spot on the fence and shouted.

"Tch, are you a newbie who just entered the Black Corner Region? You don't even know the rule that you have to offer a roadside offering from a hundred meters away before entering a tribe?"

A figure leaped onto the fence. Upon hearing Xiao Yan's question, the figure was first taken aback, then seemed to understand something. The figure raised an eyebrow, and a strange look flashed quickly in the eyes.

Xiao Yan frowned. A roadside offering?

"Five hundred gold coins, hurry up, stop dawdling and wasting my time. Don't tell me you can't even pay the toll?"

Seeing Xiao Yan's hesitant expression, the man's eyes became even more sinister, and his voice softened slightly as he urged him on.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan grinned, and his figure suddenly flashed, appearing in front of the man and throwing a punch.

This person's strength is merely that of a Dou Master.

Although Xiao Yan wasn't short of money, this blatant act of treating him like a fat sheep to be slaughtered was somewhat disrespectful!

Xiao Yan doesn't play games; he immediately unleashed the Eight Extremities Collapse.

With a single punch, he broke the man's hastily crossed arms in front of him to block, and then slammed the fist into his chest, causing it to cave in.

Xiao Yan casually plucked the Storage Ring from his finger and skillfully ransacked it.

"What a piece of trash, is this all the wealth you have?"

The contents of the Storage Ring were pitifully small.

The three men holding blades looked at Xiao Yan, who seemed even more like a local than they did, exchanged glances, and suddenly chickened out.

I thought I'd run into a fat sheep, but it turns out the fat sheep suddenly shed its sheepskin and became a big bad wolf.

This doesn't look like an outsider; this is clearly a native local!

"Ah, we don't know him well. You're quite skilled, young man, haha!"

The three chuckled, then slowly retreated, creating some distance between themselves. After that, they turned and ran, disappearing without a trace in an instant.

"He's actually quite smart..."

Xiao Yan didn't chase after them to kill them; killing these poor bastards would be a complete waste of time.
