Given Xiao Yan's personality, even if he knew that Xiao Yan was a transmigrator, he wouldn't do anything. He might even become closer to him because of their shared hometown, as long as Xiao Yan doesn't foolishly reveal "Battle Through the Heavens".
"cough."
Seeing Zhang Yuan's puzzled expression, Xiao Yan said with a hint of regret, "Heavenly 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 and said approvingly, "Among those of the same realm, magical beasts are generally stronger than humans because of their physical strength. You were able to defeat those of higher realms. It seems that the special training you've been doing well recently."
"Hmm." Xiao Yan nodded in agreement, then asked, "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, Xiao Yanzi." Zhang Yuan praised, "But in the Dou Qi Continent, strength is paramount. Even if alchemists have a noble status and can call on friends, they are nothing in the face of absolute strength."
"Over the years I have studied military strategy and have gained a lot of experience in winning with fewer troops and using unconventional tactics. But the more I do this, the more I feel that the saying 'one level is like a world of difference' is true."
"So, Xiao Yanzi, 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'm so stupid, really.
I've always known that my cousin grew up with me since childhood. 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 Douqi Continent.
If it weren't for me, my cousin probably wouldn't have suddenly decided to join the army and create weapon crafting techniques; instead, he would have gone to Canaan Academy with Xiao Yu to study.
It's all because of the huge impact I, as a time traveler, have had that I've started 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 to heart.” Zhang Yuan’s eyes lit up, and he muttered to himself.
Little Fairy Doctor, Qing Yanjing, and Xun'er all looked at Xiao Yan with new respect. They didn't expect that someone so young could have such insights and say such insightful things.
"." Xiao Yan habitually touched his nose.
As a time traveler, it's normal to copy some ancient poems and wise sayings, right?
No, how can the story of time travelers be called plagiarism?
What I'm doing is called "transferring," which is about letting Chinese culture shine in another world.
"Cousin, can I use this Nine Abyss Token to contact you when I'm at Canaan 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-order Nine Abyss Tokens 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 Gama Empire.
The southern border of the Gama Empire borders the northwestern part of the Black Corner Region. Calculated from the approximate location of Canaan Academy on the Dou Qi Continent map, the distance to the Gama 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 the Nine Abyss 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 Nine Abyss Tokens could not communicate after being more than 100,000 miles apart was that Zhang Yuan's soul strength was too weak at the moment, and he could not see how many details the Thunder God Visualization Diagram was, so 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, so there will ultimately be an upper limit.
This is also why Zhang Yuan hasn't refined the Nine Abyss Tokens for Little Fairy Doctor and the other two girls yet. He wants to wait until his strength improves further before refining them with higher-quality Extreme Spirit Crystals, 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 Nine Abyss Token was partly accidental and partly due to Xun'er." Xun'er smiled gently: "I once mentioned to Brother Yuan that there are many ways to communicate over long distances on the continent, and he listened to my advice."
"Originally, Brother Yuan intended to refine a soul tablet, but he unexpectedly created such a unique soul weapon."
Xun'er looked at Zhang Yuan, her eyes filled with undisguised admiration.
More sophisticated communication methods are only achievable by Dou Sheng powerhouses capable of tearing through space within the ancient clans, and it's still a one-way distress signal.
Knowing some people in her clan, she would definitely buy a lot of the Nine Abyss Tokens that Zhang Yuan had refined, and allocate one to every Dou Zun and Dou Sheng seed.
Brother Yuan, you are so 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 danger or need help in the future, just remember to contact me anytime." Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "Although the Nine Abyss Token in your hand is only of the Yellow Rank, its authority is at the Emperor Rank."
The Nine Abyss Tokens have ranks, as Zhang Yuan explained when he dealt the tokens to the Xiao family. They are divided into the familiar Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow ranks.
Among them, the Yellow-grade Nine Abyss Token is made from the lowest grade, the sixth-grade Extreme Spirit Crystal. The Profound-grade corresponds to the seventh grade, the Earth-grade to the eighth grade, the Heaven-grade to the ninth grade, and the Emperor-grade corresponds to the Emperor grade.
Generally speaking, you will receive the corresponding privileges based on the rank you obtain.
Different levels of access grant different lists of cultivation techniques, combat skills, rare and precious materials, combat weapons, and pills that can be viewed through the Nine Abyss 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 family 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-level authority, which means that there are essentially no restrictions on the information he can obtain from the Nine Abyss Token.
"Although the authority is high, if you have a Nine Abyss Token of a higher grade, remember to give it 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 Nine Abyss Token has changed his plans to build his power.
His initial plan was to first accumulate strength and merit, and when the time was right, to seize the position of city lord of a city bordering the Serpent People in the eastern province of the Gama Empire, and gradually eliminate the hatred between the human race and the Serpent People in the Gama Empire through various policies and benefits.
Once his strength advances to the level of Dou Huang or even Dou Zong, he will bare his fangs and attack the Mulan Empire. While helping the Snake-People to avenge themselves, he will accumulate military merits, eventually becoming a king and establishing a kingdom, sweeping across the Northwest Continent, building a powerful empire, 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 level, his own strength also jumped several times in a short period of time. With the appearance of the Nine Abyss Token, he was prepared to reach the top in one step and take the elite route.
"Next, we'll get the Purple Flame of the Amethyst Winged Lion King for Xiao Yanzi and then we'll leave."
After sending the three women back to the Realm Within a Realm, Zhang Yuan went alone to the outside of the Void Realm.
The reason for including the three women when dealing cards to the Xiao family members was definitely not to show off, but simply because I was lazy and didn't want to introduce the Nine Abyss Token again later.
Wouldn't it be better to spend that time chatting about romance and nature with the three women?
"Ok?"
As soon as he arrived outside, 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 Monster Mountain Range, and the clouds were also surging under the pull of the energy.
"It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
Zhang Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly, summoned the Five Dragons Thunderfire 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 Douhuang 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 huge, 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 has a fiery red spiral horn on its head, surrounded by clusters of purple flames. Its eyes are bright red, but have a strange purple light on their surface. Its sharp fangs look fierce, and it has a pair of huge purple wings on its back, which stir up patches of purple flames when they flap.
This is the overlord of the Monster Mountain Range within a radius of a thousand miles, the Amethyst Winged Lion King, a sixth-tier monster comparable to a human Dou Huang (Battle Emperor) level 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 hair ornament. 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 fighting spirit.
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, which was extremely spectacular.
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 Amethyst Winged Lion King showed disdain, opened its mouth and let out a roar that resounded throughout the Monster Mountain Range. The amethyst on its body instantly shone brightly, and countless purple flames 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.
"It really is."
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 Amethyst Winged Lion King.
However, this timeframe was unexpected, occurring 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 being a slave. However, she was still the young sect leader of Yunlan Sect recognized by the Gate of Life and Death.
Neither the higher-ups of the Yunlan Sect nor their teacher, Yun Yun, wanted her to lose.
In the original timeline, Xiao Yanzi had only recently regained his reputation as a genius, passing the Canaan Academy's assessment with the strength of a four-star Dou Zhe, which attracted the attention of the Yunlan Sect.
Now, Xiao Yanzi has his prodigy cousin behind him, a "peak Dou Huang" protector, and a force that is likely much stronger than Yunlan Sect. It's not just a matter of his talent being restored, so 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 fierce."
Chapter 96 Yun Yun's "First Time"! Soft and fragrant flesh embraced.
Yunyun's "first time" was filled with her soft, fragrant embrace!
When engaging in combat, one must seize the opportune moment, the advantageous location, and the support of others.
It is now the height of midday sun, and the Amethyst Winged Lion King is a fire-attribute magical beast. Its purple crystals can enhance its defense under sunlight and mobilize external fire-attribute energy more quickly, increasing the temperature and power of its own purple flames. If the temperature drops after sunset, the situation will be reversed, so the timing is right for the Amethyst Winged Lion King.
This is the Monster Mountain Range, where countless monsters gather. As the overlord of this area, the Amethyst Winged Lion King has a better understanding of the surrounding environment. It has transformed the energy of heaven and earth into a more fire-friendly type. In addition, it has many monster subordinates that it can command and use, so the terrain is also advantageous to it.
The wind fuels the fire. When the strengths are roughly equal, fire-attribute battle qi can suppress wind-attribute battle qi to some extent. Yun Yun is only a three-star Dou Huang, while the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King is a mid-stage sixth-order, making it stronger. The human element also belongs to it.
Yun Yun's visit to the Amethyst Winged Lion King this time was thwarted by a complete lack of favorable timing, location, and people.
