Chapter 249 The Legend of the Black Corner Region
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Yao Lao raised an eyebrow and glanced at him, saying, "What, do you want to discuss seniority with this old man?"

Xiao Yan chuckled awkwardly, "Of course not, I just didn't expect that you and Brother Lin would be on such good terms..."

The old doctor shook his head and said, “I should be the one to say that. If I’m not mistaken, this guy is an old monster who has lived for who knows how many years. In terms of age alone, even I am far behind, let alone you.”

"The fact that you can call him 'Big Brother' is a benefit you can attribute to that interdimensional artifact!"

Xiao Yan nodded upon hearing this, quite agreeing with the statement.

According to other long-time members in the group, Brother Lin is indeed quite old; as far as they know, he is at least over a thousand years old.

Judging from this, even Yao Lao is just a junior in front of Lin Yu. If his alchemy skills were not unparalleled in the Dou Qi Continent, he probably wouldn't be qualified for Lin Yu to call him brother.

"...Then let's each talk about our own points!"

Xiao Yan sighed.

The old man's lips twitched, but he didn't respond to the question. Instead, he glanced at Xiao Zi, who looked dejected, and said softly, "Little one, don't be too sad. If nothing unexpected happens, your mother shouldn't leave this world with Brother Lin."

"..."

Xiao Yan was taken aback upon hearing this and asked in confusion, "Why?"

The old man chuckled and said, "Because I have a premonition that that fellow is already trying to stay!"

……

……

On the other side, after bidding farewell to Xiao Yan, Lin Yu traveled along the Monster Mountain Range and soon left the Jia Ma Empire, arriving at the Black Corner Region located in the eastern part of the empire.

He originally planned to wander around the Black Corner Region first, and then head to the Central Continent, the most powerful continent on the Dou Qi Continent.

But to his surprise, the vast Black Corner Region didn't even have a single spatial wormhole leading to the Central Continent!

The closest wormhole to the Black Corner Region is in Tianya City, tens of thousands of miles away. Even with the speed of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King and the enhancement of the Bai Ze Myriad Spirits Map, it would take at least half a day to reach it.

Of course, Lin Yu could also use spatial methods, but the spatial nodes of the Black Corner Region were too chaotic. With just this clone, he could not accurately locate the unknown city thousands of miles away.

If we were to try each option sequentially using an exhaustive search method, it would probably take quite a bit of time.

In addition, Lin Yu has some other plans, so even if he goes to Zhongzhou, he will probably have to come back before the countdown ends.

This round trip took far longer than the remaining countdown time.

After a moment's thought, Lin Yu decided to abandon his journey to the Central Continent and instead travel around the Black Corner Region.

Because of the law of the jungle and the chaotic rules of the Black Corner Region, Lin Yu felt no psychological burden when he took action.

However, considering the issue of his future reputation, he did not plunder openly. Whenever he came to a city, he would always pretend to be a weak and vulnerable sheep.

When someone became greedy and tried to attack him, he revealed his true strength, starting with the person who attacked him and fighting his way up to the powerful force behind the city.

Once he has gathered enough treasures and medicinal herbs, Lin Yu will leave satisfied and continue on to the next city.

This kind of "pretending to be weak to fool others" trope is indeed a bit cliché, but it works every time in the chaotic Black Corner Region.

In just half a day, all the major forces in the Black Corner Region suffered varying degrees of looting and heavy damage.

Even the Demon Flame Valley, one of the top forces in the Black Corner Region, was spared from the clutches of that mysterious powerhouse only after its founder, the Earth Demon Old Ghost, was seriously injured and had to hand over a large number of precious treasures and medicinal herbs.

Meanwhile, because Lin Yu's activities were too short, the forces that were robbed did not think too much about it, only that their own forces were too unlucky and had accidentally offended this powerful figure who had hidden his identity.

Not long after, news from other forces arrived, and the leaders of each faction discussed the matter and were astonished to discover that the mysterious expert who had severely damaged the major forces in such a short period of time was actually the same person!

Furthermore, they discovered that this mysterious and powerful figure, who was pretending to be weak but actually strong, seemed to have unusual hobbies.

He disdained some treasures that were considered vital by major powers, such as cultivation techniques and combat skills of Earth Rank and above.

On the contrary, it is those low-level but rare things, such as the young plants of a certain rare medicinal herb, that can satisfy him.

This kind of hobby, which seems rather strange to ordinary people, naturally becomes a topic of conversation, and some busybodies even secretly gave this mysterious powerhouse a prestigious title.

Thus, under these circumstances, a legend about the Treasure Gatherer began to circulate among the major cities of the Black Corner Region.

It is said that this mysterious powerhouse possesses strength above the Dou Zun level, and has a seemingly weak but actually seventh-tier amethyst winged lion king purple cat pet by his side.

Normally, he would disguise himself as an ordinary Battle Spirit or even a Great Battle Master, only revealing his true strength when someone offended him.

In other words, in every city of the Black Corner Region, any seemingly ordinary stranger could be the Treasure Gathering Venerable!
The people of the Black Corner Region deeply resented this, but dared not speak out. They could only complain behind his back, calling this mysterious powerhouse the Treasure-Stealing Venerable or the Treasure-Plundering Venerable.

The atmosphere of the entire Black Corner Region also underwent a change for a period of time due to the legend of the Treasure Gathering Venerable.

Many people investigate the identity of strangers before making a move, fearing that they might inadvertently offend the legendary Treasure-Gathering Venerable...

Of course, that's all hindsight! The true Treasure Gatherer left the Black Corner Region long before becoming a legend, heading straight for the Mulan Empire.

In the vicinity of the Gama Empire, apart from the chaotic Black Corner Region, there are three other massive empires.

In the original novel, these three empires, led by Little Fairy Doctor, joined forces to invade the Jia Ma Empire.

The Mulan Empire, where Lin Yu is currently located, is one of them...

Before long, Lin Yu arrived above a vast valley in the Mulan Empire.

Looking at the numerous disciples in the valley dressed in green robes embroidered with animal patterns, Lin Yu smiled slightly, immediately removed his disguise, and revealed himself and the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

"boom!"

In an instant, a terrifying aura at the Dou Zong level spread out, covering the entire valley.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King, which had already reached the seventh rank, roared to the sky, its pair of purple wings spreading out and covering the sky.

Many disciples in the valley felt the terrifying aura and raised their heads, looking at the sky with expressions of shock and fear.

"...It's the Amethyst Winged Lion King?!"

"This aura... could it be a sixth-tier adult magical beast?!"

"No, it's not sixth-tier. A sixth-tier magical beast is only comparable to a Dou Huang, and I've seen Dou Huang elders in the valley before. Their aura is far inferior to this magical beast!"

"Could it be... a seventh-tier magical beast?!"

How can this be? !
Why would a seventh-tier magical beast suddenly appear in their Mulan Valley?

Could it be that someone offended someone they shouldn't have?

The disciples were both surprised and frightened, whispering and discussing among themselves in the valley.

Perhaps finding their voices a bit noisy, the Amethyst Winged Lion King glanced at them indifferently.

In an instant, an invisible gaze seemed to solidify and press down, causing many disciples to freeze instantly, unable to move, and trembling in the valley below.

At the same time, Lin Yu paid no attention to the reactions of the disciples in the valley.

After he appeared, he put his hands behind his back and stared calmly at a certain spot in front of him. His gaze seemed to be able to pierce through space and see certain figures hidden in the forbidden area of ​​the valley.

"call out--"

The next second, three streaks of light shot out from where he was looking, transforming into three old men in the air.

The three old men were all dressed in blue robes, each adorned with a lion, tiger, or bear motif.

Lin Yu glanced at the animal patterns and discovered that they were not woven from real objects, but rather condensed from energy, thus possessing a kind of mental awe that ordinary patterns did not have.

Without a doubt, these three old men are the Mulan Three Elders who appeared in the original work!

As the strongest force in the Mulan Empire, Mulan Valley, although it does not have a Dou Zong (Battle Master) in charge, has three elders at the peak of Dou Huang (Battle Emperor).

They possess a combined attack technique called "Three Beasts Savage Technique." When the three of them work together, they can fight enemies of higher levels. Even ordinary Dou Zong (Battle Master) might not be their match.

That is why the three elders of Mulan were able to remain calm after sensing the amethyst winged lion king's aura.

But when they discovered that there was a young man in white on the back of this seventh-tier magical beast, their barely maintained composure instantly turned into shock and fear.

A seventh-tier magical beast is nothing. This is the main base of Mulan Valley. As long as the great formation is activated and the disciples unite, they are confident that they can defeat this seventh-tier magical beast.

But when this seventh-tier magical beast became the mount of a mysterious powerful figure.

Then this matter is definitely not as simple as just repelling monsters!

Looking at the three elderly men with surprised and uncertain expressions, the young man in white finally spoke, uttering his first words.

"So you are the three elders of Mulan?"

Upon hearing these intriguing words, the three elders of Mulan felt a chill in their hearts, realizing that the other party was indeed after Mulan Valley.

The three men exchanged glances. The elder in the lead composed himself and said with a forced smile, "That's right, we are the Three Elders of Mulan. May I ask what brings you here today?"

Upon hearing this, the young man in white smiled slightly and said leisurely:
"To give you a chance."

"Opportunity?"

The three elders of Mulan were all taken aback.

Lin Yu glanced down at the beautiful valley below and said with a light laugh, "This valley is quite nice; it's a good place for quiet cultivation. I've been looking for a place to settle down recently, so why not choose this place?"
