Chapter 171 Cutting from South to North

“Kung Fu, fighting skills.”

Xiao Yan stretched out his hand.

“Hiss~ You are making it difficult for me! These things are the supreme inheritance of our sect… Every generation of sect leader must swear an oath before taking the throne before practicing. According to common sense, they must not be passed on to others!”

Yan Luotian slowly turned the ring and struggled for a long time but failed to take out the scroll.

The foundation of the Jinyan Sect is this set of martial arts and fighting skills. As long as they are operated skillfully and combined with each other, the speed can be increased to the level where ordinary Dou Zong can only follow behind. This is considered a unique skill in the entire Northwest region.

Successive patriarchs have guarded this treasure for thousands of years. If he gave it away today… if those old guys knew about it, it would be considered merciful if they didn’t skin him alive.

“Hurry up! If you keep talking nonsense, don’t blame us for taking action!”

The lion king spewed out a breath of purple crystal fire, and the scorching airflow almost blew Yan Luotian’s hair into ashes.

“Ahem, but——”

“So you don’t want to give it to me?”

Xiao Yan interrupted and clapped his hands towards the sky: “I can only say… you seem to have made a mistake~”

“Kuang!”

The Little Medical Fairy dropped from the sky like a steel nail, and was deeply inserted into the ground under the weight of the Xuanzhong Ruler. The poisonous smoke wrapped around her body dispersed into various colors during the evaporation, dissociating into dozens of air currents with different scents.

“laugh……”

Without seeing Yan Luotian making any movement, the rocky soil around her body began to melt slowly, transforming into soft poisonous mud in the corrosive poisonous gas, changing the properties of the fighting spirit in the air like a domain.

“Do you understand? This is not a request or suggestion, but simply a notice to you.”

Xiao Yan patted his shoulder with concern: “But…if you insist on experiencing our methods, then I have no choice but to accompany you to the end. You can’t let me be known as a bluff, right?”

Having no grudges or hatred does not mean that you cannot take action. He has never considered himself a decent person.

We can talk if we can. The price and remuneration are negotiable.

Can’t come to an agreement? Then all you can do is say sorry and don’t blame him for being a bad guy.

The Nine-Line Sky Goose Wings plus the pair of Demon Phoenix Bone Wings, this set of flying fighting skills with top speed, he was determined to obtain. The level of the secret technique was secondary, the key was that this thing had no equal in the existing intelligence!
It’s either throw or take, there is no third option.

“I…”

The corners of Yan Luotian’s mouth trembled.

“Little Medical Fairy, take action!”

Xiao Yan suddenly raised his hand, and the spreading poisonous swamp instantly absorbed Yan Luotian into it.

“Stop, stop, stop—I’ll give it to you. I’ll give it to you now!”

……

“Swift Thunder Wind Feather, a high-level Xuan-level technique… The quality of your technique is much lower than I expected! Why doesn’t it match your performance just now?”

Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on the ground, glancing at Yan Luotian from time to time.

In his hand, he was still holding a volume of fighting skills called “Yan Tian Xing”, which was of a higher grade, reaching the lower level of the Earth Rank.

‘Earth level…’

Although it is considered relatively rare in this place, can this fighting skill really almost double the speed like the previous golden shadow?
“Sir, this thing is absolutely authentic!”

Yan Luotian’s expression tightened, as if he was afraid that he would not believe it, so he turned out all the scrolls in the ring. More than a dozen yellow-level and black-level scrolls were scattered on the ground.

Looking at the whole volume, no other volume can compare to Baji Beng.

Okay~
It seems that he has been living a life of luxury, with too many high-level fighting skills in his hands, and his horizons have become higher and higher, so he does not understand the sufferings of the world.

Xiao Yan memorized the path of the body movement, put away the two volumes of fighting skills, opened the Tianyan Jiuxingyi and roughly browsed: “Teacher, this volume of secret method… should be real, right?”

“Hmm~ I don’t quite understand.”

Yao Lao narrowed his eyes and glanced at it for a few times. He could only confirm that this set of secret techniques was somewhat similar to alchemy, and seemed to be related to the weapon refining techniques that had been lost in the long river of history.

If you really want to find similar techniques, you can find the same fragments in the tripod-casting techniques preserved by the medicine clan.

Of course, the main body of this scroll is naturally the meridian route of the flying wing. Compared with the route of the purple cloud wing, this meridian network is much more complicated, but the basic function can still be guessed roughly.

“Maybe it’s true~ How about taking the Purple Cloud Wings on your back and refining them? Anyway, this pair of wings can’t satisfy your appetite anymore, so why not try a higher-level ritual to strengthen them.”

Yao Lao twisted his beard, finally pulled out a few hairs and lit the soul candle: “It’s just right, I can also take this opportunity to study the production principle of the flying secret method.”

If we can research some techniques, maybe we can even reproduce the lost production method.

“Refine your wings? Right now?”

Xiao Yan hesitated for a few seconds, and felt that he should ask first: “Teacher, what is the success rate of this matter?”

He kept saying “I don’t understand”, but he asked him to try to refine the flying wings again. Isn’t this just encouraging him to do something bad…

If he fails, wouldn’t he lose a lot? Where can he get a new flying skill?

In other words, there aren’t many graves left for him to dig in this world.

“This one ~ 70%, maybe 80%?”

Yao Lao’s voice was somewhat uncertain: “Looking at the description on this volume of Nine-Line Wings, many materials need to be added when refining flying wings. The overall process is somewhat similar to forging with a medicine cauldron, so…”

“If my guess is correct, then this re-refining will be a sure thing. Even if something goes wrong in the middle, I can still save it.”

As a traditional alchemy master, repairing and even making medicine cauldrons is one of the compulsory courses. In this regard, Yao Lao’s ability is enough to rank among the top ten in the mainland.

It’s all thanks to Black Demon Cauldron, a good teammate.

Not everyone can get their hands on a divine weapon like this one that ranks high on the Tianding list.

“I hope it’s as you said.”

Xiao Yan felt a little timid. Having experienced the torture of being burned by strange fire twice, he was not very interested in things that involved the meridians of the body. He felt a dull pain just thinking about it.

“But if we want to do this, we really need to prepare it carefully. The materials needed are a bit too complicated.”

After roughly classifying these materials in his mind, Xiao Yan obtained a list of materials covering levels four to seven, spanning the three major attributes of wind, thunder and fire, totaling four to five hundred types.

Even without considering essence and blood, the total weight is higher than the wings themselves… Compared to practicing secret techniques, this thing is more like cooking, and the wings themselves are just a carrier like a dinner plate.

“Lion King, you should have some sense of the distribution of magical beasts along the way, right? Are there many wind and thunder attribute magical beasts above level 4?”

Xiao Yan pondered for a few seconds and decided to pick out the feathers for decoration first.

Since you have decided to refine it, you should try to do it to the best of your ability to avoid wasting time and materials.

So he temporarily set a small goal: to refine the pair of wings to the seventh level first!

“Wind and thunder?”

The lion king looked at him strangely, not knowing what Xiao Yan, who was full of fire, wanted these things for: “Bloodline sensing did yield some results, but those magic beasts are generally at a low level, and only a few can reach the fourth level. If you want to hunt them one by one, it will probably take a lot of time.”

This land is completely different from the Warcraft Mountains. It has been dominated by humans for thousands of years. The local forests have long been swept clean by various powerful people, leaving only a few crooked melons and jujubes. It’s easy to raise two or three levels, but for the fourth level that has a little intelligence… except for those who are brave enough to attack human settlements, those who can run away have already run away.

“You want to refine wings?”

Yan Luotian, who had been squatting on the ground with his head in his hands, guessed something: “Then you really picked the wrong place. The mountains and fields in the Golden Goose Empire have long been cleared of the magical beast settlements hidden in the core, so there is no way to gather enough materials.”

“To this day, the secret materials for each disciple of our sect have to be provided by the Mulan Empire, and we provide them with nearly 100 million gold coins every year.”

How many gold coins?

The Little Medical Fairy sucked in a breath of cold air, turned around to look at Xiao Yan and the Lion King, only to find that she was the only one in the group who had lost her composure.

“… “

That’s right, how could someone who could produce a sixth- or seventh-grade elixir be interested in such vulgar things? After all, she was shallow-minded and incompetent.

“You guys are having a miserable time…”

Xiao Yan patted his chest nervously. The number Yan Luotian said almost made his heart jump out of his chest.

No wonder Jin Yan failed to recover the southeastern land after Mulan established the country… If the total transaction amount in the past thirty years is added up, it is enough to exchange for a heavenly fighting skill! This kind of resource loss is equivalent to two Gamas per year.

“Over 100 million gold coins? Is that a lot?”

The lion stared blankly, trying to count the number of zeros at the end: “It seems to be quite a lot…”

So you are still illiterate?

Xiao Yan looked at him in surprise. He thought this lion with a head full of worldly wisdom had some knowledge, but it turned out that he had just figured it all out.

You’re born to be a servant!
“According to what he said, we have to go to the Mulan Empire to start refining wings… It’s a pity that Medusa is nowhere to be found now. I don’t know where she is. I can only wait here.”

Xiao Yan pondered for a moment, then jumped onto the lion king’s back. After thinking for a while, he took Yan Luotian with him and flew off: “Let’s go! Let’s go check out the seal first.”

According to the hostage, the mysterious Dou Zong who broke into the territory several years ago brought with him several evil beast spirits and caused a lot of casualties to the Jinyan Sect.

After its master was killed, that guy went completely crazy, forcing the Jinyan Sect to set up a special seal to restrain it and slowly refine its evil spirit. Even when the sect moved its headquarters, it had to be taken with it and kept on high alert at all times.

“So there are only three of them imprisoned in that basin now?”

Xiao Yan’s gaze stayed on the trembling Dou Wang for a few seconds, then turned to Yan Luotian: “What about you? Nothing to say?”

“I…”

Yan Luotian was a little confused when he was suddenly called upon. He pointed at himself and said, “I haven’t succeeded the Sect Master yet! I may not know as many secrets of the Sect as they do. What can I get out of asking me?”

“Then what’s the point of me keeping you?”

Xiao Yan’s face turned dark, and he flipped his hand to condense a fire lotus.

“calm!”

Yan Luotian grabbed his hand with a serious expression and slowly closed it, pinching the Buddha’s Angry Lotus back: “Brother, if you really want to plunder something from me, then I can only give you that rare book.”

Although he doesn’t look like a good guy now, he was undoubtedly an elite in the first half of his life. All the elders praised him highly when they saw him.

He practiced hard with the resources of the sect, occasionally went out to enjoy the flattery of others, and even had some unique insights and innovations on the sect’s inheritance.

Apart from his father’s manipulation of the sect’s succession, he is the real Prince Jin Yan.

until…

“Please look! This book is a treasure I found in the Black Horn Region. It is said to be written by the famous Blood Emperor Fan Lao. It records many secret methods for reshaping the body’s meridians and improving talents!”

The God Yan Luotian mysteriously took out a pale yellow ancient book, and the first page showed an exquisite picture that could not pass the review.

“How is it? I heard that the Blood Emperor relied on this thing to transform from a worthless person into a powerful figure. It must be true. I also tried it myself…it seems to really work.”

The more Xiao Yan listened, the more silent he became. He stared at the pages quietly, not knowing how to respond.

It was not until the Little Medical Fairy quietly took two steps forward and stuck her head out that he suddenly took action.

“Ah, ah! What are you doing, sir? Huh?”

Yan Luotian was introducing the matter enthusiastically when his vision suddenly flew up and down. He was entangled by chains at his ankles and thrown off the lion king’s back, hanging upside down in the air, eating the strong wind.

“Yes, if you have something to say, please…”

As his fighting spirit was trapped by several layers of purple crystal seals, he had to face the howling gale with his physical body for the first time in his life.

……

“puff!”

The Dou Huang standing in front of the prison door was suddenly beheaded by a sword, blood gushed out like a fountain, and a hint of hideous smile remained on his head as it flew away.

“the fifth.”

Medusa’s figure slowly emerged from the air, and the long sword in her hand shook, causing the blood to explode into mist, and then she swung out a sword flower.

In an instant, dozens of blood-red lights turned into blade shadows and chopped the entire prison into pieces.

“you are……”

The snake man, with his hands still handcuffed with chains, looked dazed, as if he had not expected that there would be a day when he would escape from danger, and he had never expected that the queen he had been thinking about for many years would drop from the sky.

Maybe she wanted to say something else, but at this moment she could only stare at her speechlessly: “I, I…”

“Crack!”

Medusa cut off her restraints with ease, her eyes becoming colder and colder: “Stop talking nonsense! Tell me, do you know the whereabouts of other members of your tribe?”

“…and you.”

Medusa turned her sight, causing the fleeing minions to pause and bow down under the coercion: “Tell me everything you know, and I may be able to spare your lives!”

Along the way, the snake people who were only imprisoned were considered lucky. Those who were tortured to death and even had their bodies used were the norm.

Medusa, who was slashing all the way, was filled with hatred. If she hadn’t kept the information, she would have turned the entire base into the ground with one sword.

“Well…?”

The minions were in panic, but after looking at each other, they all hesitated and dared not speak.

After all, they have a Dou Zong expert above their heads. If they reveal relevant information casually, they might be hunted down by their own people. It’s a death sentence anyway, so they might as well take a gamble now.

Maybe she was just trying to scare people? Maybe she could still save her life if she didn’t say anything…

“puff!”

The sword flashed across, and the entire crowd was cut in two, and blood splattered everywhere like a fountain.

With just one move, 20% of the living people who were still breathing were killed.

Seeing that these people were determined to resist, Medusa’s expression gradually became ferocious: “Don’t want to tell? Then… all of you die!”
