Black-Corner Region, this is a chaotic area that is extremely famous throughout the Dou Qi Continent.

Because of its special location, this place has become the most chaotic area in the entire continent. Countless fleeing strong men have fallen here, and the most barbaric survival rules have been established. In addition to the strong human race, there are also many other races here, like a miniature version of the Dou Qi Continent.

Because of this, there are no laws and rules in this place, only the most barbaric predators of the jungle.

Countless powerful people and forces will perish every day, and similarly, countless new forces will be born.

It can be said to be a paradise for criminals.

After traveling for nearly a month, Yao Yan and Cai Lin arrived at the edge of Black-Corner Region. What they saw was a vast plain. The dark soil stretched to the sky, like a black line, completely dividing the outside world from the inside world.

"This is Black-Corner Great Plains?"

Looking at the scenery in front of him, Yao Yan's expression, which was a little numb due to the rush, suddenly became more energetic. He has been in this world for so many years and has not seen many scenery. The scenery in front of him is different from the scenery in his previous life. It is really breathtaking. He even has some speculations in his heart. The Black-Corner Great Plains in front of him is most likely the product of the ancient Dou Di's war.

Not to mention the cave left by Tou She Ancient God, the landform in front of him was extremely special. Standing at an altitude of 10,000 meters, he could not even see any sign of mountains in the distance. It was too flat.

"Yes, this unique landform can only be found in Black-Corner Region..."

Yao Lao's old voice came clearly into Yao Yan's ears, with a hint of emotion in his tone, as if Black-Corner Region had brought back many memories.

There was a pause.

He continued to transmit the message to Yao Yan: "Black-Corner Region is very dangerous. Don't trust any stranger, even if the other person looks weak, but if you underestimate the other party, you will only be the one who suffers in the end. Those who can survive here must have their own way of survival, and the most important thing is, do not have any mercy. In addition, you must also be careful of an organization, Soul Hall!"

"...Soul Hall?"

Yao Yan blinked and didn't know how to answer this topic for a while. After all, this was his own.

Yao Lao's voice was full of fear, and his tone suddenly became extremely solemn. "I don't know if your teacher has ever talked to you Soul Hall, as an alchemist, you must be wary of it, because Because this force likes to capture the powerful Soul Body, and alchemists are their favorite prey. When I was in Central Plains, I had frequent contact with them and even made a move!"

Yao Yan asked curiously, "How is the outcome?"

"... I have killed a few minions. As for the others, they are very difficult to deal with."

Yao Lao was silent for a while and gave the answer. With his strength at that time, ordinary Guardian could be easily destroyed, but those Venerable Elder and Heavenly Venerate were different. Each one of them was an old and cunning person, and there was no lower limit for what they could do. It was extremely difficult to kill each other.

There was a pause.

He added, "A chaotic place like Black-Corner Region is undoubtedly the favorite of the Soul Hall people."

Yao Yan nodded, immediately changed the topic, looked at Black-Corner Great Plains in the distance, and said, "I will find a place to rest for a few days, and by the way, I want to know where your disciple is~"

The Sea Heart Flame on Han Feng is one of his goals, but he doesn't know if the current Han Feng has already obtained Sea Heart Flame. If not, it would be a bit troublesome. However, with the Bone Spirit Cold Flame of Yao Lao as the foundation, the importance of Sea Heart Flame is not that great.

Yao Yan's words undoubtedly silenced Yao Lao. He was quiet for a long time before he said yes.

Yao Yan also ignored the autistic Yao Lao. He turned to look at the stunning Queen beside him, took out a black robe from Storage Ring and handed it over, smiling, "Put it on, this place is no better than Jia Ma Empire, and your evil name will have no effect here."

Cai Lin looked at the black robe handed over by Yao Yan, frowned slightly, and said in a soft and charming voice, "No, I have it myself."

As she spoke, she took out the mask and black robe from her Storage Ring. As she dressed neatly, her entire figure and appearance were covered up, leaving only a small section of the purple snake's tail hanging out, swaying gently. But even just a small section of the snake's tail had a strange beauty that made people couldn't help but look at it more.

All I can say is that the charm of the Medusa Queen's Clan is really astonishing, and it perfectly proves the words "beauties bring disaster."

Yao Yan sighed in his heart, put away the black robe, and took out his mask and put it on at the same time. After all, his appearance is also a source of trouble in this place Black-Corner Region. God knows if it will attract some perverts. If it is a woman, that's it. If it is a man... He feels that he will be disgusted.

After the two were fully dressed, they quickly lowered their altitude and began to search for the nearest city.

After searching like this for half an hour, a small tribe appeared in front of them.

"Go down."

Yao Yan said softly, and flew directly towards the tribe with Cai Lin.

The two people's blatant appearance naturally attracted the strong men in the tribe, but the strongest among them was only at the level of Dou Ling. When they saw Dou Qi Wings behind Yao Yan and Cai Lin, they instantly showed a respectful look and did not dare to show any slights.

"I have met these two adults. I wonder if there is anything I can do to help them."

The speaker has lived in Black-Corner Region all year round, so he certainly has good eyesight. Since the person who came here did not take action directly, it is obvious that he is not looking for trouble. Otherwise, with the other party's strength, a slap would be enough to destroy them all, so there is no need to talk nonsense with weaklings like them.

Black-Corner Region In a place like this, strength is king. The strong don't need to explain anything to the weak, they can do whatever they want.

Even if I want to fuck you in the street, you can only raise your butt obediently, and you even have to ask the other person if the angle is suitable.

Yao Yan's back Dou Qi Wings trembled slightly, floating in mid-air, overlooking the people below, and asked in an indifferent voice, "I need a copy of Black-Corner Region's latest map. In addition, I also want to inquire about Medicine Emperor and tell you everything you know."

"Yes, sir."

The middle-aged man breathed a long sigh of relief after hearing this, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, calmed down, then took out a roll of map from Storage Ring, held it up with both hands, and after Yao Yan took it away, he slowly said, "I don't know if the Medicine Emperor you are talking about is the Medicine Emperor Han Feng of Maple City?"

"Buzz~"

A strong soul wave was transmitted from Bone Flame Ring. Apparently after hearing this name, Yao Lao couldn't control his emotions at all. Especially when he got accurate information from others, the feeling of grief almost swept through his entire soul.

Cai Lin felt this soul fluctuation, her cold eyes flashed slightly, and she glanced at Storage Ring on Yao Yan's finger. She knew that the old man was hiding among them.

Could it be that this Medicine Emperor Han Feng is related to the other party?

Yao Yan controlled Bone Flame Ring to block this fluctuation, nodded slightly, and said, "That's right, tell me all the information you know."

"The villain doesn't know much. He only knows that Medicine Emperor is the former disciple of Central Plains Number One Alchemist. The other party appeared in Black-Corner Region more than ten years ago. His skills in refining medicine are unparalleled. He has already broken through to Rank 6 Alchemist at a young age. He is Black-Corner Region deserves the title of Number One Alchemist. At the same time, his methods are extremely ruthless. In order to establish his own power, he contacted several Dou Huang expert and destroyed the sect of Maple City at that time without leaving a single person alive. As a result, he became famous and became famous for a short time!"

The middle-aged man paused, wanting to see Yao Yan's face, but Yao Yan was wearing a mask, making it impossible for him to judge the other person's thoughts and emotions.

"Continue~"

Yao Yan said calmly.

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, then slowly said, "With the help of this trend, Medicine Emperor has gained a firm foothold in Black-Corner Region, and with the identity of Rank 6 Alchemist, Black-Corner Region has contacts with many forces. Today's Maple City is more prosperous than before, and no one dares to offend it. Rumor has it that even Jia Nan Academy must give it some face."

"The villain knows only so much."

He looked at Yao Yan cautiously, not even daring to show his anger. Facing such a powerful person, he had no evil thoughts at all.

"Thank you~"

Yao Yan nodded and threw a bottle of Tier 3 Qi Recovery Pill to the other party. Without waiting for the other party's reaction, he took Cai Lin into the sky and flew towards the nearby city. At the same time, he did not forget to talk to Bone Flame Ring Yao Lao among chatted and joked, "It seems that your old disciple is doing well in Black-Corner Region, Medicine Emperor, tsk tsk, this leader is really domineering~"

"Boy, don't laugh at me... Hey, I didn't expect that he would become like this. Back then, he had a conflict with me over Flame Mantra. He felt that I was unwilling to hand over Flame Mantra to him, so he teamed up with my former junior brother to severely injure me and turned me into what I am now."

Yao Lao's tone was low and a little weak, as if he had been holding it in for too long and said it all at once to vent his emotions.

Yao Yan was quite calm and said softly, "There are always some people in this world who are born with stubbornness and feel that all good things should be theirs. They can't bear the slightest grievance. He only feels that you should be good to him. If you violate him, he will hold a grudge in his heart. This kind of person is an ignorant white-eyed wolf. I can only blame you for not seeing his true nature clearly. You should have slapped him to death in the first place~"

While speaking, he also thought of his relationship with Hun Xuzi in his mind.

Compared to Yao Lao and Han Feng, his relationship with Hun Xuzi seems to be more complicated. The other party cultivated him completely for use, or even because of an experiment. Regardless of deeds and intentions, he has to acknowledge the kindness of the other party's cultivation... but he still wants to squeeze the other party to death, and some hatred cannot be erased.

The memory of being treated as an experimental subject by the other party and being manipulated by the other party in life and death is still deeply engraved in my mind.

How can you forget the pain of being left behind?

But one thing is true, the other party did teach him a lot of things, such as how to survive in this world!

Without the other party, he wouldn't be where he is now.

"Maybe~"

Yao Lao sighed softly and seemed unwilling to continue on this topic.

Yao Yan said very considerately, "If you don't have the heart to take action, I will do it when the time comes."

"Let's talk about it then."

After saying that, Yao Lao disappeared and directly cut off contact with Yao Yan.

At this moment, Cai Lin on the side was facing Yao Yan with her featureless mask, just like the first time the two met. Her voice was delicate and her tone was light. "When do you plan to go to the Jia Nan Academy? It shouldn't be easy to get in that place."

"For other people, it may be difficult, but you seem to have forgotten that I am only seventeen years old this year."

Yao Yan looked into Cai Lin's eyes and chuckled.

Cai Lin was stunned when she heard this, and then thought of Yao Yan's age. A complex color suddenly appeared in her eyes. Because of Yao Yan's strength and what the other party had done, she always habitually ignored the other party's age. Who was as perverted as Yao Yan at the age of seventeen.

She fell silent immediately, obviously not wanting to discuss this topic with Yao Yan and giving the other party a chance to show off.

Yao Yan continued with a smile, "But I have to think about whether to sneak in. Before that, let's go to Maple City first. I want to meet this Black-Corner Region's Number One Alchemist...Rank 6 Alchemist dares to claim to be the number one, and no one else has such shame~"

He inexplicably thought of a saying: There are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys dominate.

As the apprentice of Yao Lao, there is no doubt about Han Feng's talent, otherwise the other party would not be able to improve his strength to half a step by cultivating the incomplete Flame Mantra. Dou Zong, although this is Original Work's future achievement, but based on this alone, the other party's talent is definitely not weak, so it is no wonder that he is highly praised by Yao Lao.

However, Han Feng has a big problem with his character. He is eager for quick success, likes to take evil paths at a young age, and likes quick results. He wastes all his talents and makes himself unable to break through Dou Zong even after decades of age. It can be said that a good chess player is a mess.

In the end, I couldn't survive in Central Plains, so I had to come to places like Black-Corner Region to show off.

But this kid still feels quite proud.

Cai Lin's eyes moved slightly and asked in a low voice, "His relationship with that old gentleman..."

"That old guy has been a white-eyed wolf since he was a child. He teamed up with outsiders to harm him into what he is now."

Yao Yan was concise and to the point. He knew that Yao Lao didn't like to discuss this topic.

Cai Lin nodded slightly, did not ask any more questions, and gave Yao Lao a certain amount of respect. In this regard, she still had the delicacy that a woman should have, knowing that no one would like others to discuss their sad past.

"Black Seal City!"

Yao Yan looked at the map in his hand and quickly found a familiar word. This city that appeared in Original Work was under the jurisdiction of Eight Gates, and Eight Gates is a veteran force of Black-Corner Region, with strong strength and foundation. Its most famous one is the annual Auction House, which attracts countless strong people to gather.

He said with a bit of pity, "It's a pity that this year's Auction House has ended, otherwise we could have robbed it~"

"... You really do as the Romans do!"

Cai Lin heard this and was speechless for a moment. He rolled his eyes at Yao Yan and said.

"When you come to a country, you should do as the Romans do!"

Yao Yan raised the corner of his mouth, with a little excitement in his eyes, and laughed.

PS: We are starting to enter the mid-term. I forgot to ask for leave yesterday. Sorry.
