Faced with Xiao Yan's "sudden attack," Zhang Yuan remained calm, but frowned slightly and said, "I know about the Earth Tiger, it's a Tier 2 Magical Beast. Who is the Sky King? Why would he want to kill it?"

Zhang Yuan and Xiao Yan exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with doubt, as if they had truly never heard those words before.

Zhang Yuan felt he should wait until he became the Ruler before revealing that he was a time traveler.

He wasn't afraid that Xiao Yan would think he was hiding something; he could explain it away with the simple phrase, "The tide comes in on the Qiantang River, and only today do I realize who I am."

Given Xiao Yan's personality, even if he knew he was a transmigrator, he wouldn't do anything. He might even become closer to him because of their shared hometown, as long as he doesn't foolishly reveal "Battle Through the Heavens".

"Cough."

Seeing Zhang Yuan's puzzled expression, Xiao Yan said with slight regret, "Sky King is a nickname I gave myself, to commemorate my victory over an Earth Tiger yesterday, despite being of a higher level."

"I see." Zhang Yuan nodded slightly, praising, "Within the same realm, magical beasts are generally stronger than humans due to their superior physical strength. You were able to defeat someone of a higher level, so it seems your special training has been quite effective."

"Hmm." Xiao Yan nodded in agreement, then said, "Cousin, have you ever heard of odd changing and even remaining the same?"

"What is this? Is it some kind of mechanical art or some kind of secret technique?" Zhang Yuan asked with a curious expression.

"It's arithmetic," Xiao Yan explained. "A theory I figured out myself during those years when I was a good-for-nothing."

"I see. It seems you have other talents, Little Yan." Zhang Yuan praised, "But in the Dou Qi Continent, strength is paramount. Even if Alchemist a noble status and can call upon friends, they are nothing in the face of absolute power."

"Over the years, I have studied military strategy and gained considerable experience in winning with fewer troops and using unconventional tactics. But the more I study it, the more I realize that the saying 'one level is like a world unto itself' is true."

"So, Little Yan, while you're still young, seize your talent and work hard to become stronger."

Zhang Yuan, speaking with the earnestness of someone who had been through it all, began to instruct him.

Xiao Yan:""

I was so stupid, really.

I've always known that my cousin and I grew up together. Because we're about the same age, he was influenced by me a lot when we were young. His way of speaking and thinking became somewhat Earth-like, but he's still a native of the Dou Qi Continent.

If it weren't for me, my cousin probably wouldn't have had the sudden idea to join the army and create weapon crafting techniques; instead, he would have gone to the Jia Nan Academy to study with Xiao Yu.

It's all because of the huge impact I, as a time traveler, have had; now I'm even starting to doubt the people around me.

"Cousin, I understand. Brute force can overcome any technique, and can break any law. Before absolute power, everything else is just a paper tiger. I get it!" Xiao Yan nodded earnestly.

"What you said makes a lot of sense, I'll take it in." Zhang Yuan's eyes lit up, and he muttered to himself.

Xiao Yi Xian, Qing Yanjing, and Xun'er were all quite impressed with Xiao Yan. They hadn't expected him to have such insights at such a young age, and to be able to say such insightful things.

Xiao Yan habitually touched his nose.

As a time traveler, isn't it normal to copy some ancient poems and wise sayings?

No, how can the story of time travelers be called plagiarism?

What I'm doing is called "transferring," which allows Chinese culture to shine in another world.

"Cousin, can I use this Divine Token to contact you when I'm at the Jia Nan Academy?" Xiao Yan tossed the silver token in his hand, somewhat awkwardly changing the subject.

"Okay." Zhang Yuan nodded, pretending not to notice.

After copying the Thunder God Visualization Diagram inside the card, he already knew that the maximum sensing distance between the two Sixth-tier Divine Token was 100,000 li, equivalent to nine times the distance from the southernmost to the northernmost point of China in his previous life.

This distance, calculated by area, is not enough to encompass the entire Northwest Continent, but it is sufficient to cover the entire Black Corner Region or the Jia Ma Empire.

The southern border of the Jia Ma Empire borders the northwestern part of the Black Corner Region. Calculated from the approximate location of the Jia Nan Academy on the Dou Qi Continent map, the distance to the Jia Ma Empire is definitely less than 100,000 li.

The short communication distance is not due to the power of the Thunder God Visualization Diagram being weak. For example, Zhang Yuan himself can use the Visualization Diagram to send messages to anyone who has Divine Token, regardless of where the other party is on the continent or how far away they are.

The reason why the two people holding the Divine Token could no longer communicate after being separated by more than 100,000 miles was that Zhang Yuan's current soul strength was too weak, and he could not see many details in the Thunder God Visualization Diagram. His level of imitation was limited.

Once Zhang Yuan's strength increases, he can improve the quality of this copy from a distance. However, the Sixth-tier Extreme Spirit Crystal has a limited capacity to support the power of the Visualization Diagram, so there will ultimately be an upper limit.

This is also why Zhang Yuan hasn't crafted Divine Token for Xiao Yi Xian and the other two girls yet. He wants to wait until his strength improves further before crafting them with higher-quality Extreme Spirit Crystal, since the three girls won't be leaving him anytime soon.

"Cousin, how did you come up with the idea of creating such a convenient thing?" Xiao Yan suddenly asked as he turned around.

What a surprise attack! They haven't given up yet.

"To be honest, that's not really my idea." Zhang Yuan's expression remained calm as he turned to look at Xun'er.

"The appearance of the Divine Token was half accidental, and half because of Xun'er." Xun'er smiled gently, "I once mentioned to Brother Yuan that there are many ways to transmit messages over long distances on the continent, and he took it to heart."

"Originally, Brother Yuan intended to refine Soul Token, but he unexpectedly created such a unique Soul Artifact."

Xun'er looked at Zhang Yuan, her eyes filled with undisguised admiration.

More sophisticated communication methods are only achievable by Dou Sheng Expert capable of tearing through space within the Ancient Clan, and it's still a one-way distress signal.

Knowing some people in her clan, she would definitely buy a lot of the Divine Token that Zhang Yuan had crafted, and allocate one to every Dou Zun and Dou Saint Seed.

Brother Yuan, you're amazing!

"So this continent already had similar methods." Xiao Yan felt his nose itch again.

If he weren't physically strong, he would have suspected that he had rhinitis, which was why he kept wanting to touch his nose.

"In short, if you encounter any danger or need help in the future, just remember to contact me anytime." Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "Although the Divine Token in your hand is only of the Yellow Tier, its authority is at the Emperor Rank."

The Divine Token have ranks, as Zhang Yuan explained when he dealt the tokens to the Xiao Clan. They are divided into the familiar Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow ranks.

Among them, the Yellow-grade Divine Token is made from the lowest grade, the Sixth-grade Extreme Spirit Crystal. The Profound Tier corresponds to the seventh grade, the Earth Tier to the Eighth-Tier, the Heaven Tier to the Ninth-grade, and the Emperor Tier corresponds to the Emperor-grade.

Generally speaking, you will receive the corresponding privileges based on the rank you obtain.

Different rank permissions result in different lists of Cultivation Methods and Combat Skills, rare and precious materials, Dou Artifact, and elixirs that can be viewed through the Divine Token. Even the tasks that can be performed are different, and there are also restrictions on the level of friends that can be added.

The Xiao Clan did not understand why Zhang Yuan imposed these restrictions, but no one asked, because they trusted Zhang Yuan unconditionally, and he had not made any mistakes over the years.

Xiao Yan possesses Emperor-grade authority, which means that there are essentially no restrictions on the information he can obtain from the Divine Token.

"Although the authority is high, if you have any higher-grade Divine Token, remember to give them to me, cousin," Xiao Yan said without any politeness.

Being overly polite to your cousin is the problem.

"I understand, I understand, I understand."

Zhang Yuan dismissed Xiao Yan in a huff.

The appearance of the Divine Token has changed his plans to build his power.

His initial plan was to first accumulate strength and merit, and then, when the time was right, seize the position of city lord of a city bordering the Snake People tribe in the Eastern Province of the Jia Ma Empire, gradually eliminating the hatred between the humans and the Snake People tribe in the Jia Ma Empire through various policies and benefits.

Once his strength advances to the level of Dou Emperor or even Dou Zong, he will bare his fangs and attack the Mulan Empire. While helping the Snake People tribe to avenge themselves, he will accumulate military merits, eventually becoming a king and establishing a kingdom, sweeping across the Northwest Continent, building Great Emperor, becoming the number one power in the Northwest Continent, and competing for dominance in the Dou Qi Continent.

But plans can't keep up with changes. As Ling Ying broke through to the Dou Zong, his own strength also jumped several times in a short period of time. With the appearance of the Divine Token, he decided to take the next step and follow the elite route.

"Next, after getting the Purple Fire of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King for Little Yan, it'll be time to leave."

After sending the three women back to the Inner Realm, Zhang Yuan went alone to the outside of the Ancient Void Realm.

The reason for including the three women when dealing cards to the Xiao Clan family members was definitely not to show off; it was simply because I was lazy and didn't want to introduce the Divine Token again later.

Wouldn't it be better to spend that time chatting about romantic things with the three women?

"Um?"

As soon as he entered the outside world, Zhang Yuan sensed a violent energy fluctuation coming from not far away.

These energies collided continuously, filling the sky with thunderous roars.

Zhang Yuan turned to look at the source of the energy fluctuations. He saw that blue and red colors were spreading there, obscuring the sky near the Magical Beast Mountain Range, and the clouds were also surging under the pull of the energy.

"It can't be such a coincidence, can it?"

Zhang Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly, summoned the Five Dragon Thunder Gang Fire Wings, and flew towards the direction from which the fluctuations came.

In less than half an incense stick's time, he arrived at a valley and saw the battle taking place high in the sky.

The energy of the Dou Emperor level directly filled the surrounding area for dozens of miles. The blue and red colors were one of the manifestations of mobilizing the energy of heaven and earth, and it was a spectacular sight at first glance.

The two combatants were a woman and a female magical beast. The female magical beast was enormous, with a lion's head on its head and a body that was two or three zhang long. Its surface was covered with a layer of purple crystals that were extremely dazzling in the sunlight.

The monster had a fiery red spiral horn on its head, surrounded by clusters of purple flames. Its eyes were bright red, but had a strange purple light on their surface. Its sharp snout and fangs looked very fierce, and it had a pair of huge purple wings on its back, which would stir up patches of purple flames when they flapped.

This is the overlord of the Magical Beast Mountain Range within a radius of a thousand miles, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, Sixth-Rank Magical Beast comparable to a human Dou Huang expert, embodying both beauty and destruction.

As for the woman, she wore a simple dress, but it couldn't hide her sharp and beautiful figure. She held a long sword that exuded sword energy, and her black hair was styled into a noble Phoenix Hairpin. Her expression was calm and serene, but her appearance was extremely beautiful. Behind her was a pair of blue wings, which were slightly illusory and were formed by her own Dou Qi.

If it's not Yun Yun, then who is it?

Yun Yun raised her hand slightly, and the energy of heaven and earth surged with her movement, quickly condensing into a blue tornado. Initially only one zhang in size, it expanded to more than ten zhang in a short time, a truly magnificent sight.

Under the influence of this blue tornado, the clouds shattered into ice crystals and water mist, which were sucked into it. Countless giant trees on the ground were uprooted and flew into the violent whirlwind, where they were shredded into wood chips.

Faced with this situation, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King showed disdain, opened its mouth and let out a roar that resounded throughout the Magical Beast Mountain Range. The amethyst on its body suddenly shone brightly, and countless Purple Fire burst forth, rolling like waves of heat, quickly converging into a huge purple pillar of fire.

The beam of light shot straight into the sky, radiating immense heat. Countless trees on the ground, hundreds of feet apart, began to burn, but Zhang Yuan, who was only a dozen feet away, felt nothing.

"That's true."

Zhang Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, watching the battle with great interest.

It was expected that Yun Yun would come to find the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

However, this timeframe was unexpected; it would arrive several months earlier than he had anticipated.

The butterfly effect?

That's entirely understandable.

Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan's "Three Year Agreement" was transformed into a private competition between the two clans under Zhang Yuan's guidance, which greatly reduced its impact. Nalan Yanran also did not have to face the price of becoming a slave. However, she was still the young sect leader of the Misty Cloud Sect recognized by the Life-and-Death Gate.

Neither the higher-ups of the Misty Cloud Sect nor her teacher, Yun Yun, wanted her to lose.

In the original timeline, Little Yan had only recently regained his reputation as a genius, passing the Jia Nan Academy's assessment with the strength of Four-star Dou Zhe, thus attracting the attention of the Misty Cloud Sect.

Now, with his prodigy Little Yan behind him, a "Peak Dou Emperor" protector, and a force that is likely much stronger than the Misty Cloud Sect's talent recovery is no longer a simple matter. Naturally, Yun Yun is paying more and more attention to him.

It's perfectly plausible that they came to find the Purple Spirit Crystal in advance and then asked Gu He to refine pills for Nalan Yanran.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yuan looked up at the blazing sun high in the sky.

"This woman seems a bit reckless."
