Old Yao Explains Soul Artifacts, a Sudden Windfall!

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"I couldn't dodge it, and I couldn't even withstand a single blow!"

"How so!?"

Inside the Ancient Void Realm, Xiao Yan sat on the ground, clutching his lower abdomen, his face filled with disbelief. 🐚👻 😂👑

Just now, he accepted Xun'er's "goading" and said that he could withstand one of her moves.

He knew that Xun'er had a high status, was backed by a super power with Saint in charge, and possessed Heavenly Flames. Her cultivation techniques and Dou Technique would also be excellent.

He knew that although Xun'er had only broken through to the Dou Zhe a year and a half ago, he was already at the Peak Dou Zhe, so she was definitely stronger than him.

But thinking about the Mysterious Heavy Ruler's body-refining techniques, the Old Yao's training, and his own ability to defeat a second-tier low-level magical beast comparable to Dou Master head-on, he felt that simply blocking one attack wouldn't be difficult.

As a result, Xun'er directly condensed her Dou Qi Armor, stood on golden flames, and instantly appeared in front of him. She condensed a golden mark on her fist and unleashed a punch with a suffocating power.

He instinctively channeled his Dou Qi into the Mysterious Heavy Ruler, removing the weight and Dou Qi suppression, and placed it in front of him to defend himself. At the same time, he used a mid- Profound Tier- rank movement technique to create distance.

As a result Xun'er's fist was like a magnet, chasing after him relentlessly, and he couldn't shake it off at all.

Xiao Yan is doing well in everything, except that his cultivation technique is of a low level, and once his internal Dou Qi is depleted, it takes a long time to recover. Therefore, he has specially prepared a lot of pills to restore his Dou Qi.

But to withstand one attack, surely you wouldn't need to take drugs?

Before he could make a decision, Xun'er suddenly accelerated and punched Mysterious Heavy Ruler.

An immense force struck, numbing his hands and causing him to lose his grip on the Mysterious Heavy Ruler.

Xun'er accelerated again at this moment and punched him in the abdomen. He could feel the force even through the armor.

And then, he lost, without a doubt.

"There's really no need for you to take Zhang Yuan's surname. And don't come showing off meaningless things in front of me in the future, understand?"

Xun'er's smile remained unchanged, but she suddenly took out a long sword from her Storage Ring and stuck it into the ground at her feet.

This longsword was clearly extraordinary; some of the patterns on its blade seemed to be alive, flowing with the power of flames, causing Xiao Yan to feel a sharp pain.

Clearly, this was Dou Artifact Zhang Yuan had crafted for Xun'er; she deliberately showed it to him to show that he was still far from being good enough.

Xiao Yan:""

Being defeated is nothing. After all, according to Old Yao, some geniuses in Central Region can become Dou Wang at the age of seventeen, or even Peak Dou Emperor before the age of twenty. Defeating him is easy.

He was confident that he could rise from this barren Northwest Continent and become one of the strongest on the continent; this was the unique and powerful belief of a transmigrator.

But Xun'er actually flaunted her cousin's doting affection.

"Both Qing Yanjing and Xiao Yi Xian, my future cousin-in-laws, have gentle personalities, which is why they get along so well with this tyrannical woman and don't compete with her for favor."

"That woman, Xiao Yu, seems arrogant, but she doesn't dare to compete. She's choosing a roundabout route, so she can't be relied upon."

"I need to keep an eye out for some stunningly beautiful women with high aspirations, preferably those of similar status and position."

A certain obsession in Xiao Yan's heart began to deepen.

He planned to ask the Old Yao when he got back if there was any woman in Central Region whose status and position could rival Xun'er's.

Oh, and there's also Queen Medusa. I heard Old Yao mention her once; she seems to be a fierce woman who wouldn't grovel before anyone, and she knows Zhang Yuan.

He didn't want his cousin's household to be in turmoil, but he also didn't want Xun'er, that female tyrant, to have such an absolute power. So, after considering her personality, if she was a suitable match, he would try to find a way to bring his cousin together.

In an instant, Xiao Yan's thoughts flowed like a spring.

Xun'er felt a malice envelop her, and gave a faint smile, saying, "Cousin Xiao Yan, what are you thinking?"

"Of course, I want to become stronger!" Xiao Yan composed himself and said seriously, "I thought my talent was second only to my cousin, and I only admired him in this life. Only today do I realize that there are always mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people."

"Xun'er, I've learned my lesson. Thank you."

Xiao Yan stood up and respectfully clasped his hands in a fist salute.

He spoke these words from the bottom of his heart.

In a year and a half, he went from the Three-stage Dou Qi to the Peak Dou Zhe. He did get a little cocky, but because he had been a waste for three years, he didn't really get cocky.

Xun'er's punch brought him back to his senses, making him realize that he was still far from being strong enough.

"Since you've come to this realization, you didn't take that punch from Xun'er for nothing."

Zhang Yuan suddenly appeared beside Xun'er and spoke calmly.

That reckless cousin of mine, he'll finally learn his lesson, won't he?

"Brother Yuan." Xun'er smiled sweetly.

She was worried that Zhang Yuan would say she had no sense of propriety for hitting her so hard, but luckily, her brother Yuan doted on her.

"Cousin," Xiao Yan immediately grimaced, "That punch really hurt. I feel like I'm going to throw up my New Year's Eve dinner. Aren't you going to comfort me?"

"How old are you, still trying to comfort people?" Zhang Yuan shook his head speechlessly, then tossed out a Black Scroll.

"What is this?" Xiao Yan hurriedly reached out and caught the scroll, eagerly opening it.

When the scroll is unfurled, a lifelike painting appears: two dark, chilling Eagle Wings. Because they are painted on a scroll, they are not large, but a tangible heat emanates from them, revealing their extraordinary nature.

Xiao Yan looked closely and discovered that the jet-black Eagle Wings were adorned with some purple cloud patterns, giving them a unique metallic texture. The heat seemed to originate from the lifelike feathers.

A thought struck him, and he gently blew a breath, only to see the feathers on the Eagle Wings actually float up, as if they were real.

"It's Flying Dou Technique." Old Yao appeared beside Xiao Yan, his eyes once again showing surprise.

The Flame Seed of the Nine Dragon Thunder Gang Fire became lovers with Xun'er, a girl of extremely high status in the Ancient Clan. At a young age, he had already condensed Spirit Realm Soul and created the Thunderfire Refining Method, which was so advanced that even his old friend Feng Xian would not be ashamed to ask him for advice. There are also many other stories about him.

Now that we've found a rare Flying Dou Technique, it doesn't seem like much anymore.

Could Zhang Yuan be the reincarnation of the Dou Emperor, blessed by heaven?!

"Flying Dou Technique?"

Xiao Yan's gaze swept to the side of the scroll, where he saw a line of small characters. He read it aloud, "Black Flame Purple Cloud Eagle, a fifth-tier flying magical beast, possessing a rare bloodline of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, its flight speed ranks among the top of flying magical beasts of the same tier."

"Fifth-tier Magical Beast wings!?"

Xiao Yan's heart skipped a beat.

Fifth rank, that's comparable to a human Dou Wang expert.

Isn't this equivalent to breaking off Dou Wang's wings and putting them inside?

"This Dou Technique is High-level Profound tier called Eagle Wings, also known as Purple Cloud Wings. It was created by me and several friends after three years of capturing a complete Black Flame Purple Cloud Eagle. We used a secret method to completely remove its wings and created it. Before my death, I used all my Dou Qi cultivation to draw it. It can only be practiced by one person at a time."

After reading all the information, Xiao Yan looked intently at Zhang Yuan and asked, "Cousin, are you going to give me this Flying Dou Technique?"

Is this Dou Technique that allows people to fly?

In the Dou Qi Continent, under normal circumstances, only those who reach the advanced stage of Dou Ling can barely manage to condense their released Dou Qi into energy wings on their backs, thus achieving flight.

Now, this mere Peak Dou Zhe can gain the ability to fly simply by mastering this Flying Dou Technique. It's a shortcut, and extremely valuable.

Zhang Yuan actually gave me such a good thing without hesitation?

"Yes, you already have it." Zhang Yuan nodded.

Compared to his Five Dragon Thunder Gang Fire Wings, the Purple Cloud Wings were nothing but inferior, since the Exotic Fire Wings did not consume his own Dou Qi and were extremely fast.

Qing Yanjing is already at the High-level Dou Ling, and with a little effort, she could even surpass him to become Dou Wang. This Flying Dou Technique is rather useless; she should go to the Luoyan Sect to get something better later.

Xun'er has already mastered the ability to transform into Exotic Fire Wings. After Xiao Yi Xian activates her Woeful Poison Body, she can quickly grow into Dou Wang by consuming poison. Xiao Yu can then refine a flying Dou Artifact, but he won't need it. So in the end, it will still benefit Little Yan.

But Xiao Yan was unaware of Zhang Yuan's thoughts. He immediately put the scroll away and smiled, "My cousin is so good to me."

Xun'er frowned slightly, feeling somewhat uncomfortable with Xiao Yan's words.

That punch just now, it seems, wasn't light enough.

Zhang Yuan didn't want Xiao Yan to cause any more trouble, so he immediately approached Old Yao and said, "Senior, I've gathered all the medicinal herbs during this time. When would you like to refine the Three-pattern Green Spirit Pill?"

He was going to refine two Three-pattern Green Spirit Pill and one two-patterned pill. One of the three-patterned pills and the other of the two-patterned pills were for Xiao Zhan, which should be able to help him break through to the Dou Ling and immediately advance to the three-star level.

"I can do it anytime, but I still need a certain type of flame to refine the Three-pattern Green Spirit Pill," Old Yao said with a smile.

Thanks to Zhang Yuan, his spiritual state has recovered a lot, so refining Rank 7 Pill is no problem. He could even refine Eighth-Tier, but if his strength is insufficient, the pills might escape.

Under these circumstances, it was naturally no problem for Zhang Yuan to ask him to help refine Rank 6 Pill.

"I have the third kind of flame," Xun'er said proactively.

"No need for such trouble." Zhang Yuan shook his head and said gently, "Brother Yan has already reached the Peak Dou Zhe. I plan to find some time in the next few days to find some Beast Flame for him. Then, I'll ask someone to control Brother Yan's body to refine pills, so he can experience the process of Fourth-grade pill refining."

"Mmm." Xun'er nodded obediently.

At this moment, Zhang Yuan moved the stone slab over again and asked, "Senior, do you know what kind of ore is on this stone slab?"

The Old Yao leaned closer to examine it, and soon let out a soft "Eh," saying, "This stone seems to have some kind of restriction on Soul Power, capable of isolating Soul Power, but its level is limited. I've never actually heard of such a mineral before."

Zhang Yuan was slightly surprised that there were things even the walking encyclopedia, Old Yao, didn't know.

"This is Extreme Spirit Crystal Ore, both Sixth-grade and Grade 7 quality are available." Xun'er's pleasant voice rang in Zhang Yuan's ears.

Yes, if the mobile encyclopedia doesn't work, there's still the Ancient Clan's daughter; her knowledge base is certainly not weak.

Xiao Yan felt a toothache. How could this female tyrant know something that even his teacher didn't?

"So this is the Extreme Spirit Crystal Ore." Old Yao said something that surprised and delighted Xiao Yan.

"Teacher, do you know?"

"I've heard of it, but I've never seen it." The Old Yao nodded and said, "Extreme Spirit Crystal Ore is a special kind of ore, ranging from the lowest Sixth-tier to the highest Ninth-tier, and it appears in silver, gold, blackish gold, and reddish gold respectively."

"Extreme Spirit Crystal Ore is extremely rare and special. It can isolate and contain soul power. It is said that in ancient times, some powerful Alchemist used this ore to forge fighting Dou Artifact that could be controlled by Soul Power, called Soul Artifact."

"The Bone Flame Ring on your hand was crafted by an old friend of mine who is also an avid weapon maker. It was made using an Eighth-tier Extreme Spirit Crystal Ore obtained from the Dou Zun Ancient Tomb. It can also be considered a kind of Soul Artifact, which is why I was able to reside within it."

"It's a pity that my old friend gave it to me directly after he finished crafting the Bone Flame Ring. I've never seen Extreme Spirit Crystal Ore before, otherwise I would have recognized it."

As he spoke, the Old Yao carefully examined the stone slab that Zhang Yuan had brought.

With so many Extreme Spirit Crystal Ore, some of them Sixth-tier and some Seventh-tier, I wonder how many Soul Artifact Zhang Yuan could forge with his weapon-refining skills?

At this moment, Zhang Yuan was somewhat surprised.

If he wasn't mistaken, the area around that cave was filled with Extreme Spirit Crystal Ore.

What an enormous fortune that must be!?
