Reaching the pinnacle from Doupo
Chapter 426: The time has come
Chapter 426: The time has come
“Oh? Two semi-saints? This is quite interesting…”
Elder Qi You raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes like an eagle. “It seems that in the war that year, those barbarians did prepare a retreat. The coalition forces did not succeed in cutting off their high-end inheritance.”
“That’s right.” Lin Yuan nodded: “According to my interrogation, the Barbarians’ Dragon Soul, Phoenix Soul, and Snake Soul all retained one vein each, which are the Barbarians’ three hidden veins!”
Speaking of “interrogation”, Lin Yuan smiled slightly, with a hint of pride in his eyes.
As a top-level eighth-grade master and also as the Soul Palace’s Abyss Heavenly Lord, he has a great variety of methods and is particularly insightful and efficient in “interrogating” souls.
It didn’t take much trouble to pry out a lot of valuable information from the barbarian half-saint.
Hearing Lin Yuan’s words, Qi You stroked his long beard, chuckled, and said, “Haha, it seems that the barbarian leaders knew the result before the decisive battle that year…”
“Of course. After all, the difference in strength between the Beast and Barbarian tribes is obvious to anyone with a discerning eye.”
Lin Yuan confirmed Qi You’s guess with a smile, and then changed the subject, “But the barbarians still had a glimmer of hope back then, so they made two preparations.”
“On the one hand, they lobbied the human race’s high-level officials and tried to incite the human race’s hatred of the Warcraft and fear of the Warcraft family; on the other hand, they carried out the so-called Spark Plan, hiding the most essential inheritances of the three veins before the war.”
“The inheritors of these three veins were not the most outstanding people among the barbarians, but the second-rate people. Therefore, they luckily escaped the purge of the coalition forces.”
“Afterwards, these people hid in the dark of Beichen Wilderness, passed down from generation to generation, and waited for an opportunity to rise again…”
“I see!” Elder Qi You nodded slightly, his expression becoming serious, and he said in a serious tone: “Elder Alchemist, please tell me all the details! This time, I will go there in person to help you get the inheritance of the Barbarian Tribe’s Hidden Three Veins.”
At this point, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said faintly: “Haha, it’s not a bad thing for me to end this long-ago feud…”
As the strongest bloodlines of Warcraft today, the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan and the Barbarian Clan are naturally hostile to each other.
In this situation, Qi You had already sentenced the three hidden clans of the barbarian tribe that possessed the semi-saint and saint realm inheritance to death in his heart – these three clans must be wiped out.
Moreover, the half-saint of the Dragon Soul Barbarians dared to attack Princess Zi Yan, which was a crime punishable by genocide.
As the inheritance elder in charge of the bloodline of Donglong Island, the Qi You lineage has been the confidant of the Dragon Emperor since ancient times. They are the most loyal to the Dragon Emperor among the ancient dragon clan.
This is also the reason why Lin Yuan chose to summon him over.
He was naturally happy to see Qi You’s initiative to offer, and told Qi You all the information he got from the Barbarian Half-Saint, including the specific location, personnel composition, strength, etc. of the three hidden veins of the Barbarians.
The Barbarian Dragon is dead, but the mark of his soul he left among the Barbarians might alert them… In order to avoid any further complications, a quick victory is the best strategy.
After Qi You received the information provided by Lin Yuan, he moved and flew towards the sky at a very fast speed.
Watching Qi You disappear from his sight, Lin Yuan thought for a moment, and then an idea came to his mind.
There was a flash of silver light between his eyebrows, and the miniature version of Lin Yuan transformed from his natal soul pill walked out from his eyebrows, and the purple dragon transformed from his natal blood pill also flew out of his body.
“This time, the use of the Dan Yuan Secret Method consumed the energy of about two eighth-grade three-color pills… but it is within an acceptable range!”
After looking at it for a moment, Lin Yuan nodded slightly, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
Although the Danyuan secret method has a very high upper limit and a huge bonus to combat power, it is a real “pay-to-win” secret method.
Ordinary people, and even most eighth-grade alchemists, are far from being able to afford this level of consumption – not all eighth-grade alchemists are like Lin Yuan, who has countless resources at hand and an astonishingly high efficiency in alchemy.
For an ordinary eighth-grade alchemist, it is not easy to gather a set of eighth-grade medicinal materials and refine an eighth-grade pill. It is simply unimaginable to use an eighth-grade pill as feed or consumables.
Exhaling lightly, Lin Yuan took out two eighth-grade seven-colored thunder tribulation pills and fed them to the natal soul pill and the natal blood pill respectively.
When it comes to maintaining the elixir, Lin Yuan is not at all careless or stingy.
Cultivating the three Dan beasts to the ninth level is one of the backup holy paths he prepared for himself. In addition to these, there are two other paths.
Bodhicitta is just one of them.
Even after acquiring a lot of inherited knowledge, Lin Yuan still had some other ideas about Bodhicitta, but they still needed time and opportunities to be verified.
Shaking his head, he suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind and put away the two natal Dan beasts.
Feeling the eager gaze behind him, Lin Yuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, turned around and looked at the purple figure, and then threw two jade bottles over: “Here, Zi Yan, your pills! These two are the last two auxiliary pills…”
These two eighth-grade seven-color pills were the ones that were refined together with the Thunder Tribulation Pill. They are pills that assist in absorbing the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit.
Zi Yan quickly took the flying pill and gave Lin Yuan a coquettish look.
“Hey, the preparations are finally complete!”
Zi Yan couldn’t let go of the jade bottle in her hand and smiled, with a strong anticipation in her eyes – everything was ready, and she could finally eat the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit.
At this time, colorful light flashed on Lin Yuan’s hand, and Xiao Cai turned back into human form.
Lin Yuan held his beloved daughter in his arms, turned his head to look at the three women beside him, handed Xiao Cai to Medusa’s arms, and handed a storage ring to Xiao Yixiang.
“Xiyue, Xian’er, Qing’er, we will follow the plan we have discussed. We will separate for now. You should go back to Canaan College first! After Zi Yan and I have dealt with the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit, we will return to Canaan as soon as possible to join you…”
“The things in this ring are the gifts I prepared for the academy. When you go back, please pass them on to the Great Elder and the others…”
In the ancient ruins, Lin Yuan got a lot of skills, fighting techniques, elixirs, and demon puppets…
Although he personally had no use for those low-level skills, fighting techniques, and elixirs, they were definitely an incomparable fortune for Canaan Academy, enough to make the academy’s foundation skyrocket, not inferior to most of the first-class sects in Zhongzhou.
Especially the ten demon puppets, which he had tempered into celestial demon puppets during this year, and the strength of each of them was that of a three or four-star Dou Zun.
With them, it would be basically no difficulty for Canaan Academy to suppress the Northwestern Continent.
The gains from the ruins, plus the elixirs personally refined by Lin Yuan, the alchemy notes he wrote, and the alchemy inheritance he created, are enough to support Canaan College’s rapid development for decades.
He had accomplished what the teachers at Canaan College had expected many years ahead of schedule.
And Lin Yuan himself can be said to have done his best!
After hearing Lin Yuan’s explanation, the Little Medical Fairy’s eyes flickered slightly, and then she nodded heavily, accepting the request: “I understand, leave it to me!”
After saying this, she did not hesitate, but bent her body and flew towards the shuttle boat in the distant sky.
“Don’t take risks casually, come back early!”
Medusa gave a warning, and then took Xiao Cai into the air, following Xiao Yixian. “I’ll take away those powerful Snake Soul Barbarians who were experimented on… and controlled by me!” Qing Lin walked quickly to Lin Yuan, his eyes met his, and he said in a deep voice: “Also, this is the intelligence I have collected recently…”
As she spoke, she used the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils illusion, and her pupils glowed with a faint emerald green light, transmitting all the important information of today’s exploration to Lin Yuan.
In addition, she also passed all the experimental results of studying the Snake Soul Barbarians to Lin Yuan.
A few minutes later, after completing the transmission, Qinglin’s mind moved, the emerald green light in his pupils dissipated, a smile appeared on his face, and he looked at Lin Yuan with burning eyes.
When Lin Yuan saw Qing Lin’s expression, he immediately understood – this expression was an expression of wanting to be praised.
“Qing’er, you did a great job!” He smiled gently, gently stroked the girl’s soft hair, and said meaningfully: “Next, you will act according to my previous arrangements. Take the space jade slip and wait for instructions… This time, my back is in your hands!”
Feeling the gentle touch on his head, Qinglin’s face broke into a bright smile, and he arched the palm of his hand above his head in intimacy.
“Don’t worry, sir. Qing’er understands!”
After saying this, she turned around and flew into the air without any hesitation, turning into a stream of green light and rushing towards the distant sky…
When Qing Lin’s figure disappeared from sight, Lin Yuan turned to look at Zi Yan and said in a deep voice: “Zi Yan, let’s go! Let’s go to the agreed meeting place first, and wait for Elder Qi You to arrive. After we have a discussion, we should deal with this Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit!”
Lin Yuan didn’t want to let Long Dao intervene in this matter, but this time when he encountered the matter of the Half Saint, he changed his mind slightly.
It takes at least one month to consume the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit.
During this period, there still needs to be a Dou Sheng strongman to watch over her. Otherwise, if he encounters an unexpected situation like the Barbarian Half Saint while helping Zi Yan digest the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit, it will be troublesome…
Anyway, I have already made enough preparations to deal with some unexpected situations.
–
after one day.
In the Beichen wasteland, inside a remote and scorching volcano.
“Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit?”
Seeing the purple dragon and phoenix intertwined fruit in front of him, Qi You was stunned. After confirming it again and again, he said in disbelief: “How did you get this thing? When did you get it? Why don’t you go back to Dragon Island?”
Lin Yuan did not answer the question, but looked at Zi Yan beside him and said in a deep voice: “Zi Yan, put it away first!”
Zi Yan nodded, and with a thought, she took the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit back into her body.
Seeing this, Lin Yuan looked straight into Qi You’s eyes and said, “Zi Yan’s cultivation has reached the ninth level of Dou Zun. The time has come for her to take the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit. The qi of the two has also merged. I have also prepared various auxiliary pills.”
After a pause, his tone became more serious: “Right now and here… it’s time to start! Next, please ask Elder Qi You to lend us a helping hand!”
“This matter is of great importance, why not return to Long first…”
Qi You subconsciously wanted to refute, but before he could finish his words, he seemed to have figured something out. He stopped refuting and looked into Lin Yuan’s eyes with sudden enlightenment.
What you see is a determination not to give in.
Just like this, a man and a dragon stood opposite each other, looking at each other solemnly, and the atmosphere on the scene suddenly became heavy.
After a moment, Qi You slowly closed his eyes, took a long breath, and then slowly opened them, and asked in a deep voice: “Elder Alchemist, the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit is of great importance. Are you sure you have made all the preparations?”
“Of course!” Lin Yuan nodded slightly and said calmly: “Zi Yan is not only the princess of the Ancient Dragon Clan, but also my younger sister and wife. I will not joke about this matter.”
Upon hearing this, Qi You gritted his teeth and turned his gaze to Zi Yan who was standing beside him.
At this moment, the girl was standing behind Lin Yuan, showing her absolute trust in the latter and expressing her support silently.
Seeing this, Qi You also understood that persuasion was undoubtedly necessary, so he nodded seriously: “Since you and Princess Zi Yan have made up your mind, I will not say more. You should cooperate with me to the fullest! Tell me, what do you need me to do?”
“Thank you, Elder!” Lin Yuan cupped his hands and said solemnly, “This is expected to take two months. During this time, please protect us and seal off the aura…”
“Don’t worry, leave this matter to me!”
Qi You waved his hand and said confidently: “For the next two months, I will be on guard outside and won’t let anyone disturb you! You guys get started!”
Before he finished speaking, his body trembled and he disappeared in front of Lin Yuan and the others.
Before long, layer upon layer of spatial barriers formed within the hundreds of miles of the volcano, completely sealing off and isolating the area around the volcano.
“Zi Yan, let’s start too!”
Lin Yuan tilted his head to look at Zi Yan and said, “Take the pills I prepared for you and restore your body to its most malleable state.”
Upon hearing this, Zi Yan snapped her fingers and several pills flew out of the ring and hovered around her.
After a moment of hesitation, she picked up the Xuanling Fanshi Pill in the middle and swallowed it. The pill slid into her stomach, and extremely powerful medicinal power was released from it. Zi Yan’s body trembled, and then gently floated up.
Afterwards, a rich purple light surged out from Zi Yan’s body and transformed into a purple light cocoon that was about ten feet wide, wrapping up her body and all the elixirs around her.
“The status is normal, Zi Yan’s body is beginning to recover!”
Lin Yuan sensed for a moment and finally felt relieved. He then looked at the boiling magma not far away and narrowed his eyes slightly, “Then I should also make preparations here…”
Thinking of this, he gently clenched his hands, and the dry blue ice flame rushed out from his body.
The cold flames gathered, and a huge ice-blue fire cauldron slowly condensed out, spanning the crater. The cauldron’s feet extended into the boiling magma, quickly drawing endless earth fire energy, and the fire cauldron became more and more solid.
And in the fire cauldron, countless runes flickered and array patterns intertwined, constructing an extremely mysterious magic array.
Beside Lin Yuan, a purple light cocoon flickered gently, and an aura slowly brewed within it…
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
When the purple light cocoon shattered, Zi Yan’s figure finally reappeared in front of Lin Yuan.
At this moment, her cultivation had reached the peak of the ninth level, with purple light lingering around her, but her figure had completely returned to that of little Zi Yan… No, it was a younger state, with an extremely pure aura like that of a child emanating from her body.
At this moment, she is like a blank sheet of paper, in the most plastic state.
After Lin Yuan carefully checked it, he took her to the center of the cold fire cauldron and said with a smile: “It’s okay, Zi Yan! Take the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit!”
Hearing this, a hint of excitement flashed in Zi Yan’s eyes. She took out the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit and swallowed it in one gulp.
