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

"Black Seal City is located here..."

Xiao Yan rubbed his finger against a red-marked spot on the map and spoke softly.

This was the largest city he passed through on his journey across the Black Corner Region to Canaan Academy. He planned to go in and take a look, and also get a feel for the local customs and culture of the Black Corner Region.

However, what puzzled him was that the map didn't seem to include Maple City, which Han Feng controlled in the original story...

"Ugh...poisonous fire," Little Fairy Doctor whispered pitifully in his ear.

"I'm about to break through to the Dou Wang level."

"So fast?" Xiao Yan's pupils dilated in shock. He snapped out of his thoughts and looked at the woman in the white dress beside him in astonishment.

How come it's like a ghost? It's even faster than him.

He had only recently risen to the rank of Dou Wang.

How could this woman...?

"Your Netherworld Poison Fire... is very potent and effective." Little Fairy Doctor chuckled. "Moreover, in order to break through my cultivation level, I even went to the forbidden area of ​​Yunmeng Marsh in the Chuyun Empire. I almost died inside, but after I came out alive, my cultivation level skyrocketed."

When the matter of the Izumo Empire was mentioned, a hint of apology flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes. "Alright, I'll refine the pills for you right away."

Cai Lin frowned slightly and let out a soft hum.

He turned his head away in dissatisfaction.

Qinglin stood to one side, her little face trembling, not daring to intervene in the dispute between the two.

After all, Cai Lin treated her very well, and Xiao Yi Xian was the first beautiful older sister Xiao Yan met when they went to Shi Mo City together, and she was also very kind to her.

As a nobody, she could only develop quietly and discreetly.

"Hehe, thanks!"

Little Fairy Doctor glanced at Cai Lin with her beautiful eyes, then raised her pretty face with a defiant look and kissed Xiao Yan hard on the cheek, her face full of smugness.

This... I'll eat it for the rest of my life!

What do you have to compete with me?

With your seductive charm?

hum...

Chapter 77 I will never tell you anything! Xiao Yan: (Continuing with the electricity...)

"Om..."

Just as White Fang sped off, the sky ahead suddenly darkened, and a pitch-black storm slowly brewed ahead.

A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes, but then he heard Bai Ya's solemn voice below him: "Master, this is a Black Storm, the most unique weather in the entire Black Corner Region. However, those guys from the Soul Hall often mingle in it, taking advantage of their ghostly forms to avoid being disturbed by the storm and harvesting souls everywhere..."

"The Soul Palace?" Xiao Yan's expression froze.

“That’s right, it is the Soul Palace!” Bai Ya’s throat bobbed. She vaguely guessed that Xiao Yan was also from Zhongzhou. The closer she got to Zhongzhou, the more she knew how terrifying one of the four palaces, one tower, two sects, three valleys, and four pavilions really was.

“My lord, let’s go around them and try to avoid contact with those guys,” White Fang suggested.

After all, although those guys were always alone, none of them were weak. Even the lowest-ranking members of the Soul Hall were at least above the Dou Zong level and were called protectors.

Although the Soul Palace forces in the entire Northwest region are not numerous, there is at least one Dou Zun level expert guarding it, making it an existence that should not be easily provoked.

But the next moment.

Xiao Yan flashed a bright yet dangerous smile, revealing his white teeth. So it was the Soul Palace…

"Charge straight there!"

White Fang: "..."

……

Inside the Black Storm.

A bright red soul dodged around, its face filled with terror: "We have no grudge against each other, why are you arresting me?"

Behind him, a figure in dark gray, also a soul, held a strange, pitch-black long hook, his face bearing a mocking, cat-and-mouse expression: "Hehehe, all souls are prey for my Soul Palace. Although you are slightly weaker, you are still my achievement. Hand you over!"

Having said that, the long hook wrapped with the iron chain swung towards the red soul. The moment they touched, a ripping sound was heard, and the red soul let out a miserable cry.

His body was pierced by the long hook and pulled backward inch by inch.

"Soul Palace?"

Just as the man in black robes from the Soul Palace was looking mocking, a voice rang out beside him. His pupils contracted sharply, and in his shock and anger, he turned around, only to freeze abruptly.

A tall figure enveloped him.

A pair of dark eyes, devoid of any emotion, looked down at him indifferently. One hand moved so fast that he didn't even have time to react before his head was grabbed.

Even more terrifying was that, for some reason, the palm was covered with a layer of dark green flames.

It instantly set his entire body ablaze.

"This is... a different kind of fire!!!"

The Soul Hall member instantly let out a painful wail: "You actually dared to attack the Soul Hall, do you have a death wish?!"

"I still prefer your previous 'hehehe' attitude." Xiao Yan's lips curled into a mocking smile as he squeezed the creature into his palm, condensing the Netherworld Poison Flame into a fire prison, trapping it within.

The strange fire scorched the latter for only a few minutes, until it was completely exhausted and began to beg for mercy.

"It's late, let's stay inside for a while."

Xiao Yan smiled and tossed it into a jade bottle, then added a pinch of strange fire. Only after hearing its scream did he put the stopper on the bottle.

He glanced at the red figure beside him, whose throat was bobbing and whose face was filled with terror.

He waved his hand casually: "Let's go. Don't reveal a word of what happened today."

Actually, it doesn't matter if I reveal it. We'll have to confront the Soul Palace sooner or later anyway; it's just that it's happening earlier.

"Thank you for saving my life."

The red soul was utterly terrified. Although he had never heard of the Soul Palace, he knew that he hadn't even managed to dodge a single move from the Soul Palace's members before, yet this young man...

He knelt down and kowtowed, only to see that the figure had already disappeared with the black storm, and his heart was filled with emotion.

……

"My lord, this is someone from the Soul Palace." Bai Ya swallowed hard, listening to the screams coming from the jade bottle.

"I know." Xiao Yan closed his eyes and lay leisurely on Medusa's long, fair legs, enjoying the gentle lap pillow, with the fragrance of the beauty wafting into his nostrils.

"So how many outposts does your Soul Palace have here?" Xiao Yan asked casually, noticing the unusually weak soul in the jade bottle.

"I absolutely will not tell you!!!"

"Keep scalding it."

Xiao Yan smacked his lips and was about to put the cork back on.

But the Soul Palace member finally succumbed to the torture, lying dying in the bottle, saying, "I'll talk, stop the shocks, I'll talk..."

"You're all confused. This is a strange fire, where would the electricity come from?" Xiao Yan said with a smile, playing with the dark green sparks on his fingertips.

"Speak."

"The human-level protectors only know one... Aaaaaaaah!!!" The Iron Protector was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly screamed in agony, "Why are you burning me before I've finished speaking?"

"Sorry, it's a habit. Please continue." Xiao Yan rubbed his nose. "Tell me the place you know about."

"The Heavenly Heart Empire, the Heavenly Burial Ravine," Iron Protector said weakly.

"What about the other protectors?" Xiao Yan continued to inquire.

“I don’t know. Within the Soul Palace, human-level protectors don’t know the specific information about the other party, in order to prevent someone from capturing one person and extracting information about the others,” said Protector Iron.

Xiao Yan nodded slightly. He had no interest in going to the Heavenly Heart Empire, after all, it was just a low-level stronghold. However, logically speaking, the protector who captured Yao Lao in the original story shouldn't be too far off...

After a long silence, he took the iron protector in his hand and began to refine it.

Although those guys haven't reached the point of making a move against his father yet, he still needs to hurry. He needs to establish a safe haven for the Xiao family in the Black Corner Region, and with the backing of Canaan Academy, even a Dou Zun expert would have to think twice before trying to harm the Xiao family...

At least for now, the Gama Empire cannot protect the Xiao family.

Yunshan is unreliable; in fact, we have to be wary of him instead.

And the only one he could rely on, Dou Zong Cai Lin, insisted on staying with him, fearing that if she wasn't there, he would be taken advantage of by Xiao Yi Xian.

So... we still need to maintain a good relationship with Canaan Academy.

"..."

Please take one day off.

Forget it, I really can't come up with anything, I'll take a day off.

OrZ……
