Battle Through the Heavens: The Strongest in the Entire Map, I Will Always Be Above You

Xiao Yan continued to cultivate "Three Thousand Thunderclaps" and "Tiger's Roar and Dragon's Cry" with only so-so results. He barely managed to get the basics of "Three Thousand Thunderclaps" because he encountered a thunderstorm, but he never quite grasped the essence of "Tiger's Roar and Dragon's Cry".

"Earth-rank fighting techniques are indeed difficult to master!" These two are only low-level Earth-rank fighting techniques. If they were mid-level Earth-rank techniques, Xiao Yan really doesn't know how difficult it would be.

"You currently only know the Dragon's Roar, and have not yet experienced the Tiger's Roar, so it is naturally difficult for you to master it!" Yao Lao's voice rang in Xiao Yan's ears. He had seen that scroll of sound wave fighting techniques and knew that Xiao Yan needed to understand the essence of the Tiger's Roar and the Dragon's Roar in order to master this scroll of fighting techniques.

“That’s true. Since I started cultivating, I’ve never actually seen a powerful tiger-type magical beast!” Xiao Yan shrugged, glanced at the map, and headed towards the side of the inner courtyard of Canaan Academy, which happened to be the direction Chen Yang was heading.

Three days later, Xiao Yan arrived at the inner courtyard where the fire energy hunting competition had already begun.

As he was sitting cross-legged, recovering his fighting spirit, he suddenly heard a terrifying roar of a demonic beast.

"A sixth-tier magical beast!" Elder Yao floated out, looking towards the west, and said in a deep voice.

"Let's go take a look!" Xiao Yan now doesn't let any sixth-tier magical beast go unnoticed, just in case this magical beast is a dragon-type magical beast!

"Alright, be careful. I won't come to your aid unless it's absolutely necessary!" the old doctor chuckled.

"Tch!" Xiao Yan rolled his eyes, then leaped up and rushed straight towards the roar.

A moment later, Xiao Yan arrived at a mountain peak and hid there to look down. He saw a huge tiger with dark gold stripes and three pairs of wings on its back lying by a pool in the canyon, drinking water.

"A sixth-tier magical beast, the Six-Winged Tiger King!" Yao Lao floated out once again and said to Xiao Yan.

"Although we didn't encounter any dragon-type magical beasts, the roars of tigers and the cries of dragons give us a chance to learn the basics!" Xiao Yan chuckled.

"Hmm..." Just then, Yao Lao suddenly poked his head out and looked at the dark gold striped tiger, staring intently at the pair of horns on its head. After a few seconds, Yao Lao looked at the scales on the tail of the six-winged tiger king, then turned to Xiao Yan with a strange expression, "Little Yan, you're really lucky!"

"Huh??" Xiao Yan was taken aback, not understanding why Yao Lao said that.

"I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear?" Yao Lao asked, stroking his beard as he looked at Xiao Yan.

"Bad news!" Xiao Yan shrugged, already used to Yao Lao's disrespectful behavior.

"The bad news is, you definitely can't defeat this magical beast with your strength!" said the old apothecary.

"And what's the good news?" The old doctor only said that he couldn't beat him, not that he couldn't win, so this bad news wasn't too bad.

"The good news is that this six-winged tiger king has the bloodline of a dragon-like magical beast, and it's quite high. It can be called a six-winged dragon-tiger king!" Yao Lao said with a smile.

"Hiss!" Xiao Yan gasped.

"What are you two looking at so suspiciously?" Just then, a faint voice suddenly appeared in Xiao Yan and Yao Lao's ears, almost scaring them out of their dinner from the previous night.

When the two turned around and saw that it was Chen Yang and Qing Lin who had appeared out of nowhere, they breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Yang, how did you appear out of nowhere? You scared me to death!"

Xiao Yan looked at Chen Yang with a resentful expression.

"You guys were too serious to notice, is that my fault?" Chen Yang shrugged, looking completely indifferent.

However, the truth is that Chen Yang had just tested his Dou Zun-level spatial abilities, which was the secret to his silent appearance behind the two of them.

Upon hearing this, the old doctor stroked his beard and smiled. He didn't think much of it, assuming that Chen Yang's technique was some kind of special way to conceal his aura.

Xiao Yan then looked at Chen Yang and said mysteriously, "Brother Yang, didn't you want to know what my teacher and I were plotting?"

Chen Yang nodded, and Qing Lin, who was standing to the side, also cast a curious glance at him. She was now a one-star Dou Wang!

"Hehe, let me tell you, I've discovered a dragon-like magical beast!" Xiao Yan said proudly.

"???..." Chen Yang looked at Xiao Yan, completely bewildered.

Is this kid really that lucky?

Chapter 117 Six-Winged Tiger King: You're talking nonsense!

Seeing Chen Yang's strange look, Xiao Yan scratched his head and laughed, "Brother Yang, tell me, am I lucky or are you lucky? Or are we both lucky?"

Chen Yang rolled his eyes speechlessly as he looked at Xiao Yan, who seemed to be in Versailles: "This thing will eventually be used on you. Do you think I'm lucky or you're lucky?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan reached out and touched his nose: "Just kidding..."

Just as "lucky guy" was about to say it was just luck, a furious roar suddenly came from the canyon, followed by a surging aura rushing towards them.

"Arrogant!" Chen Yang snorted coldly, casually flicking his sleeve. The aura of the six-winged tiger king, whose strength was comparable to the peak of the Dou Huang level, instantly dissipated. The giant tiger, which had already flown to the top of the cliff and was about to attack Chen Yang and the others, was instantly suppressed back to the bottom of the valley. However, the tiger's eyes were still full of ferocity, showing no fear after being suppressed.

"Huh? Isn't this a tiger? Where did this dragon-like magical beast come from?" Chen Yang only realized it was a tiger, not a dragon-like magical beast, after he suppressed the Six-Winged Tiger King.

"Brother Yang, look closely! This tiger has dragon horns on its head and a dragon tail behind it. It definitely has the bloodline of a dragon-type magical beast... Um... A tiger with dragon blood should be able to use its magic core, right???" Xiao Yan excitedly explained to Chen Yang before realizing that this tiger only seemed to have the bloodline of a dragon-type magical beast, not a pure dragon-type magical beast!

"It depends on the purity of this tiger's bloodline. If it's more than half pure, then it's usable. If it's less than half... you should just go find the Dragon Blood Origin Fruit. Although it's rare, it's not impossible. If Canaan Academy doesn't have it, go to other cities in the Black Corner Region. You'll find it eventually!" Chen Yang said, glancing down at the six-winged tiger king at the bottom of the valley.

"Alright..." Xiao Yan nodded helplessly.

Chen Yang shook his head, took a step forward with Qing Lin in his hand, and the next second they appeared at the bottom of the valley, standing in the void on the head of the Six-Winged Tiger King.

Seeing this, Yao Lao was stunned. Chen Yang's method just now clearly showed that he had mastered a large amount of spatial power: "Has this boy Chen already advanced to the high-level Dou Zong?"

Unlike Yao Lao's suspicion, Xiao Yan, this silly guy, didn't pay any attention to anything special about Chen Yang's speed. He spread his Dou Qi wings and swooped down from the top of the cliff, standing next to Chen Yang in just a few seconds.

"Human powerhouse, I merely came out for a drink of water, why are you suppressing me?" The Six-Winged Tiger King looked at Chen Yang and roared.

Chen Yang was too lazy to waste words with it. He raised his hand and pointed at it, and a drop of blood flew out from the top of the Six-Winged Tiger King's head and floated into his hand.

Then, Chen Yang formed a hand seal, and the profound hand seal entered his blood. After a moment, he shook his head at Xiao Yan with some regret.

"The concentration of dragon-type magical beast bloodline is only about 30%, which is far from meeting the requirements. However, if all the essence blood in its body is extracted and combined with the Dragon Blood Origin Fruit, it should be possible to refine the pill into a top-grade sixth-rank pill!" Chen Yang waved his hand to disperse the drop of blood and said to Xiao Yan with some regret.

"Sigh... Since that's the case, let's use it to help me cultivate sonic fighting techniques!" Xiao Yan said helplessly.

"Oh, so you finally chose sonic fighting techniques?" From the moment Xiao Yan told him the good news that he had found a dragon-type magical beast, he knew that this kid had not obtained the magic core of a sixth-order dragon-type magical beast in the library.

However, Chen Yang thought that Xiao Yan was planning to get a book of fist and palm techniques suitable for him, but he ended up getting a book of sound wave techniques instead.

"Hehe... The two old gentlemen guarding the library think highly of me and let me choose any three books in the library. The five of us spent an hour and still couldn't find a sixth-tier dragon-type magical beast's magic core."

"However, I was lucky enough to obtain a low-level Earth-rank sonic combat skill, 'Tiger's Roar and Dragon's Cry.' After consuming the Yin-Yang Profound Dragon Pill, I obtained a trace of dragon energy, but I had never heard the roar of a tiger before. With this fierce tiger, I can finally cultivate it."

Xiao Yan chuckled.

"You've met some benefactors, kid. Those two old gentlemen are peak Dou Zong level experts, like guardians of Canaan Academy." Chen Yang didn't expect that Xiao Yan would receive such benefits after becoming a Dou Wang before joining the inner academy. Moreover, the sonic Dou Technique that Xiao Yan obtained this time was directly a low-level Earth Rank.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. With his current strength as a Battle King, high-level Xuan-rank sonic combat techniques are basically useless to him.

Thinking of this, he reached out and patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder, then asked, "Anything else?"

Xiao Yan smiled mysteriously upon hearing this: "There's also a medicinal herb and a mid-level Earth Rank leg technique, but judging from the name, it seems to be wind and thunder attribute. Yang-ge, if you need it, I can take a look at it!"

Chen Yang nodded, neither agreeing nor disagreeing: "Okay, show it to me when you're done. If you really can't find a suitable fist and palm technique, I have a palm technique that I can teach you. Although it's only a low-level Earth rank technique, when all eighteen palms are used at once, it can rival a mid-level Earth rank technique!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was overjoyed and repeatedly expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, Brother Yang!"

Chen Yang smiled and turned to look at the Six-Winged Tiger King: "Then you can use it to practice your sonic combat skills here. I have already placed a seal on it. Once you have mastered your combat skills, you can release it if you want, or drain its life essence if you want, it's all up to you!"

Xiao Yan nodded, already intending to drain the beast's life essence.

At this moment, the pride of the Six-Winged Tiger King had been completely extinguished by the conversation between Chen Yang and Xiao Yan. These two kept talking about Earth-rank Dou Techniques, and the white-robed human was even standing on the void, clearly a Dou Zong powerhouse.

According to them, they are not going to survive today?

Do not!

No, no, no, I still have a glimmer of hope!

Thinking of this, the Six-Winged Tiger King hurriedly called out to Chen Yang, who was about to turn and leave, "Senior, human senior, I have something to say!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang stopped in mid-air, turned around and looked at Qing Lin while holding its hand: "Oh, what do you have to say?"

The Six-Winged Tiger King swallowed hard, then said in the most cowardly voice he had ever used, "Senior, are you looking for dragon-type magical beasts?"

Chen Yang: "You have news?"

"Yes!" The Six-Winged Tiger King nodded heavily.

"Tell me!" Chen Yang immediately became interested. He wanted to know whether the tiger was acting according to its heart before it died, or if it was planning to go crazy.

"Senior, as you can see, I have the bloodline of a dragon-like magical beast. That's all because a seventh-tier evil dragon took my mother as its own, killed my father, and ate my three older brothers and sisters. My mother endured humiliation and gave birth to me. She originally wanted to drown me, but she had a soft heart and raised me to the fifth tier before she went to fight that evil dragon. But she was only at the sixth tier and was no match for that evil dragon. In the end... she was eaten by the evil dragon!" The Six-Winged Tiger King recounted his tragic story with a sorrowful expression.

However, after it finished speaking, Chen Yang, the other two, the soul, and the two magical beasts all had question marks on their faces.

Xiao Yan was the first to react. He counted on his fingers and looked at the Six-Winged Tiger King: "No, according to you, shouldn't your father be that evil dragon?"

"You're talking nonsense!" The Six-Winged Tiger King was furious. "It's not my father. My father is the Tiger King of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. I hate the bloodline in my body. Unfortunately, I'm not strong enough. I've been away from the Hundred Thousand Mountains for more than two hundred years and I'm still only a sixth-order magical beast. If I were a seventh-order beast, I would risk self-destruction to make it pay the price!"

Xiao Yan nodded after listening, but then he asked, "How did you know all this?"

The Six-Winged Tiger King's expression immediately fell: "It was...it was my mother who told me!"

Upon hearing the word "mother," Xiao Yan immediately thought of his own mother. That woman was always very gentle with him, but she didn't stay with him for long. It seemed that all he could remember about his mother was the Bone Flame Ring on his hand.

The feeling of missing his mother came and went quickly. After regaining his senses, Xiao Yan turned to Chen Yang and asked, "Brother Yang, tell me, is what it said true or false?"

Upon hearing this, a flash of golden light appeared in Chen Yang's eyes, and he nodded to Xiao Yan: "It wasn't lying, and if what it said is true, Xiao Yan, your good fortune is about to arrive!"

Xiao Yan was taken aback upon hearing this, and then he remembered the level of the biological father of this six-winged tiger king—the seventh rank.

“If it’s only the early to mid-stage of the seventh rank, Brother Yang, if you and your teacher join forces, you can still put up a fight!” Xiao Yan said to Chen Yang with a mad glint in his eyes.

With the magic core and essence blood of a seventh-tier dragon-type magical beast, Yang Ge could probably refine a peak seventh-grade Dragon Origin Profound Blood Pill. At that time, combined with a seventh-grade Earth Core Tempering Pill, his foundation would probably be ridiculously strong.

"Little Tiger, let me ask you, what is the strength of that evil dragon you mentioned, and can it transform into human form?" Chen Yang nodded upon hearing this, and then looked at the Six-Winged Tiger King and asked.

"Reporting to Senior, it has been 250 years since I fled the Ten Thousand Mountains. When I fled, that evil dragon was only at the early stage of the seventh rank, roughly equivalent to the strength of a three-star Dou Zong in human form. Now, more than 200 years have passed, and I really don't know its strength." The Six-Winged Tiger King lowered his body and said with a look of fear.

"What? You don't know?" Xiao Yan was furious. He hadn't even been angry when the little tiger cursed at him out of pity, but this beast was just spouting nonsense. "Brother Yang, why don't we just kill this stupid tiger? Even without a dragon-type magical beast's core, I, Xiao Yan, can still become a Dou Di!"

"..." Chen Yang glanced at Xiao Yan, who was showing off here, and thought to himself, "You may not be able to become a Dou Di without a dragon-type magic core, but you can't just openly show off. On this Dou Qi Continent, regardless of outsiders, when the two of us are together, only I can show off."

After some strange thoughts flashed through his mind, Chen Yang waved his hand dismissively: "It's just a mere seventh-tier magical beast. Even if it reaches the threshold of the eighth tier in two hundred and fifty years, I'm not afraid of it!"

Upon hearing Chen Yang's sophisticated words, Xiao Yan was immediately filled with respect. As expected of Brother Yang, he figured Brother Yang had even more amazing tricks up his sleeve.

However, Yao Lao interpreted it as Chen Yang having already reached the high-level Dou Zong realm, and if you think about it that way, then there's no problem.

"Where are those Hundred Thousand Mountains?" Seeing that Chen Yang had agreed, Xiao Yan spoke up for him and asked the Six-Winged Tiger King.

"It's also on the Northwest Continent, but that place is extremely far from here. It's located in the Tianxin Empire, at the junction of the continent's center and the Northwest region!" said the Six-Winged Tiger King.

"The Heavenly Heart Empire?" Chen Yang frowned upon hearing this. He was familiar with this place; the Soul Palace branch on the Northwest Continent was located in the Heavenly Burial Ravine of the Heavenly Heart Empire!

"It's so far..." Xiao Yan frowned and muttered. He had not studied the exact size of the Northwest Continent, but if the Tianxin Empire was not far from the Central State, then it would probably take more than half a year to make a round trip.

“This… is indeed quite far. Little Tiger fled all the way from there, taking almost thirty years to reach this destination!” the Six-Winged Tiger King said cautiously.

“Brother Yang…” Xiao Yan gritted his teeth and turned to look at Chen Yang.

“Distance isn’t a problem, and this little tiger wasn’t lying… Hmm, after I settle Qinglin in, let’s go take a look!” Chen Yang said.
