Battle Through the Heavens: Who put Laozi in my storage ring?

Silent all night.

The next day.

In the tranquil valley.

Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on a giant rock, watching Little Fairy Doctor's retreating figure as she went into the valley to gather herbs, and a smile gradually crept onto his lips: "Teacher! My flying technique!!"

"Tsk, why are you in such a hurry?"

Laozi's figure floated leisurely from the storage ring, casually tossing it a yellowed piece of paper. "Here, I've modified that technique a bit. Give it a try."

"hey-hey."

Xiao Yan grinned and quickly unfolded the parchment. It wasn't the jet-black eagle wings from the original story, but a pale golden three-legged divine bird. Although it was only outlined with simple lines, the bird's spirit leaped off the page.

I almost fell for it after just one glance.

It was scorching hot, as if my whole body had been thrown into a giant furnace.

"Gulp~" Xiao Yan's throat bobbed as he exclaimed in disbelief, "This is... a three-legged golden crow?!"

"You've got good taste, kid." Lao Jun chuckled. "It's just a replica of the Rainbow Technique, and I've incorporated a drop of ancient golden crow's essence blood into it, based on the method of this scroll."

"This thing will improve as your strength advances. Even when you advance to become a Dou Di in this world, it won't become obsolete." Lao Jun smiled and stroked his beard.

"Alright, I'll go take a stroll around this area. You can continue practicing this technique." After saying this, Laozi's figure slowly disappeared.

Only Xiao Yan remained, stunned in place.

He originally only wanted a flying combat skill, something comparable to the Battle Wings of a Battle King, but who would have thought... he would actually get a divine skill from Laozi.

As expected of Laozi, the Eagle Wings from before were probably not even trash in his eyes...

Those medicinal herbs that made him so happy were treated like waste.

He shook his head and turned his gaze to the scroll.

Following the method written by Laozi, a drop of essence blood was used not to make the Golden Crow recognize its master, but simply to sign a contract. In the next instant, the Golden Crow in the scroll transformed into a golden light and surged into Xiao Yan's brow.

"Om..."

Xiao Yan was instantly pulled into the clouds, then suddenly plummeted.

In the reflection of his pupils, a colossal three-legged golden crow hovered in the sky, blotting out the sun. Xiao Yan stared blankly at it, his own reflection etched in its pupils. Accompanied by a cry, like an ancient, blinding murmur, the entire world trembled.

"Huff, huff~"

Xiao Yan suddenly regained consciousness, breathing rapidly like a drowning person, until he saw the original appearance of his surroundings and gradually calmed down.

"No, I've got it!"

Xiao Yan's pupils suddenly contracted.

He took out a bronze mirror and saw a faint golden pattern on his forehead. Although simple, it was clearly a three-legged golden bird.

Chapter 24 First Encounter with Yun Yun

Xiao Yan felt a surge of immense, strange power flowing into his body. His expression turned slightly strange. The Dou Qi that had just been depleted was replenished again, and a warm aura entered his meridians and circulated throughout his body.

I felt a little lighter all of a sudden.

This Rainbow Technique is utterly superior to any so-called movement technique.

Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, and with a light leap, his body landed as lightly as a falling leaf on an ancient tree.

Two pale golden lines gradually appeared on its bare back, then suddenly trembled and condensed into two golden wings.

"Om..."

Xiao Yan merely fluttered his golden wings, and his figure floated several miles away. He turned back and looked at the valley behind him with shock.

If activated with full force, it could probably rival the Dou Qi Wings of Dou Wang and even Dou Huang powerhouses. As for Dou Zong, it would be slightly inferior, as the latter's spatial displacement has some bugs.

But judging from the current progress of the Rainbow Technique, once he advances to the Dou Ling level, even the Dou Zong might not be able to catch up with him.

"..."

So this is what it feels like to have cheat codes?

Xiao Yan clenched his fists, filled with excitement.

At least for now, he can run away with a Dou Wang like a dog. Let alone catch up with him, even seeing his exhaust fumes is considered a sign that the Dou Wang is fast. Of course, it's best not to provoke someone like Yun Yun, a Dou Huang.

There are also staff techniques, Vajra Technique, and the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts to be put on the agenda.

He yearned for the terrifying power of the Heaven and Earth Law, as well as various supernatural abilities, but unfortunately, his cultivation level was currently too low, and he had only just mastered a basic staff technique.

Back in the valley.

We took off our clothes and plunged into the nearby waterfall.

Facing the pressure of the towering waves, he cleaved the water curtain with the black iron in his hand, wielding it with great skill. Laozi's phantom watched from outside the waterfall, a satisfied look on his face. He stroked his beard slightly, appreciating the rare talent and comprehension.

"Whoosh, whoosh..."

Xiao Yan tossed his short hair, his face showing excitement. He felt the Dou Qi within his body growing stronger little by little, and his cultivation level increasing bit by bit. It was addictive. In fact, it wasn't that ordinary people didn't like to work hard, but rather that they suffered from working hard but not seeing results.

This is the difference between geniuses and ordinary people.

The former provides positive feedback immediately, while the latter requires dozens or even hundreds of times more effort to achieve even a small result.

The staff technique vaguely touched the threshold of mastery. According to Xiao Yan's estimation, this Xuan Staff technique should be able to reach the threshold of Heaven-rank Dou Technique. Although with his current cultivation level, he can only unleash the explosive power of a three- or four-star Great Dou Master when he uses it at full strength, its upper limit is frighteningly high.

"continue!"

Beneath the waterfall, only a young man, shirtless, wielding a black staff, cuts through the waves.

……

Two months later.

In the valley.

A massive, snow-white ape with sharp fangs and a ferocious face was running wildly, one hand on its rear end and the other on the ground, chasing after the handsome young man in front of it.

The latter flapped its wings and flew for a while before stopping in place. Holding a reddish-gold fruit in its hand, it took a big bite, splashing juice everywhere, and looked at the snow ape behind it with a playful expression.

The snow ape's eyes were bloodshot, but it could only let out a powerless roar.

It was clearly a third-tier magical beast, reigning supreme in the surrounding area. Apart from the true master of the Magical Beast Mountain Range and the fourth-tier magical beasts beside him, no one dared to touch its whiskers. But this person…

But it appeared out of nowhere, and with its agility, took the spiritual herb that it had first discovered in the pool, and even ate it right in front of it.

"Roar!!!"

It even launched a sneak attack, scalding its rear end with a fiery dragon.

"You beast, you still dare to chase me!" Xiao Yan grinned, stopped running, and a hint of mockery appeared in his eyes.

The time has come to assess the results of the past two months!

"Dragon-Panning Staff!"

Accompanied by a soft shout.

The black ink staff gradually became scorching hot, mixed with blazing flames, and surged into a verdant fire dragon god.

As the fire dragon roared out, the snow ape's expression changed. It clearly sensed the terror of the attack and turned to run away, but it was obviously too late. Its already injured body could no longer display its previous sharpness.

It was caught up by the dark green fire dragon and then swallowed up.

"Roar!!!"

With a scream, the enormous snow ape's body vanished completely, emitting a hissing sound of corrosion, disappearing from the spot.

"Tsk, this Netherworld Poison Fire is indeed sinister."

Xiao Yan glanced at the snow ape, which was dead and had no complete corpse left but a snow-white third-tier magic core, and clicked his tongue in amazement.

The black staff he was carrying returned to its original black color.

This was the effect of the Netherworld Poison Fire he infused into it. Combined with the Dragon Coil Staff Technique, he used his five-star Dou Shi (Battle Master) strength to crush a third-tier magical beast to death.

It should be noted that most magical beasts of the same level require a human expert of at least five or six stars to contend with them, and only a seven or eight-star expert can kill them.

According to his estimation, he would not be at a disadvantage against at least a seven- or eight-star Grand Dou Master.

In that case... Little Fairy Doctor's dishes should be ready soon.

Xiao Yan grinned and prepared to return.

His body suddenly jolted, and his gaze sharpened as he looked towards the distant valley.

A furious roar echoed through the sky.

"Woman, get out!!!"

Yunyun?

Xiao Yan's pupils widened in shock. In the sky, two figures stood facing each other. One was a majestic giant lion with a huge body, a single horn still intact, and wings covering its body in purple. The other was a stunningly beautiful woman with a petite body but an aura that was in no way weak.

He possessed a cold and aloof demeanor, and although his face was elegant, it carried an air of undeniable authority.

After all, he was the head of a sect, but...

Xiao Yan's expression was strange. Was a cave scene about to unfold?
