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

Elder Qing's emerald green, snake-like pupils flashed with a hint of surprise. Even with her knowledge of the Heavenly Serpent Palace, she had not heard of the existence of a seventh-grade alchemy master in the Black Corner Region.

"Elder Qing, should we go up and make your acquaintance..." A woman dressed in blue from the Heavenly Serpent Palace whispered in his ear from behind.

"No rush." ​​Elder Qing narrowed his eyes and shook his head.

Let's find out who the visitor is first.

Moreover, if you try to befriend them at this moment, they might easily mistake you for someone who came to destroy the pills, thus generating resentment and making you seem despicable.

But the next moment.

A woman dressed in a purple brocade dress and wearing a purple veil on her head, with a seductive figure, appeared in mid-air at some unknown time. Her powerful aura as a Dou Zong was on full display, suppressing all the surrounding noise.

"Retreat within a hundred meters of this area, or else..."

"kill!"

The woman simply made a light pinch in mid-air with her bare hand.

From a hidden spot below, several plumes of blood mist rose up, startling many powerful figures in the surrounding area into retreating hastily.

Chapter 81 Reactions from All Sides, The Soul Within the Mysterious Storage Ring

"A Dou Zong level expert?!"

Fan Ling's pupils suddenly contracted, and his foot, which was about to step out, involuntarily retracted. This aura was clearly stronger than that of a Dou Huang. Even his father, a four-star Dou Huang, could hardly compare to it, let alone the fact that he could step in the air, which was clearly a Dou Zong mark.

All of this sent shivers down his spine, but what was even more terrifying was...

"Young master, this woman... doesn't she look like the one from the auction earlier..." the old man beside him said, his face pale.

"Shut up, I'm not blind." Fan Lingqiang suppressed his fear and said, his throat bobbing.

Although this Dou Zong expert concealed his face, his graceful figure was unforgettable. Even though he was usually indifferent to women, he had deliberately glanced at him earlier and recognized him as the person next to the mysterious young man.

So... that mysterious young man is very likely a seventh-grade alchemy master?!

Otherwise, she wouldn't have won the heart of a Dou Zong powerhouse. Now, she's probably in big trouble.

Fan Ling's already pale face turned even paler.

The value of a seventh-grade alchemy master is enough to invite a Dou Zun powerhouse, or even a Dou Zong powerhouse they cannot reach with a wave of their hand. The Blood Sect has really stirred up a huge mess this time.

"Hehe, why isn't the Blood Sect's young master laughing anymore? Is it because he can't laugh anymore?" Elder Qing, standing to the side, was shocked. She also recalled the trouble the Heavenly Serpent Mansion had suffered in the Jia Ma Empire a few days ago. After making inquiries, she learned that the person in question was actually a peak sixth-grade alchemist with terrifying combat power. He had shattered the Dao hearts of White Fang and Green Barbarian. This woman in purple must be Medusa, the queen of the Serpent Clan.

Although the Heavenly Serpent Manor didn't have much of a relationship with him, ... it was said that White Fang was "working" under his command.

And coincidentally, he had previously heard from his servants that there was an eight-winged black serpent king outside the city, and everything made sense.

"Ha ha……"

Hearing Elder Qing's mockery, Fan Ling's face darkened. He glared at the other party fiercely, but did not argue with him. He waved his hand and led the Blood Sect members to quickly head out of Black Seal City.

"At least we need to reunite with my father first before making any further plans." Fan Ling's breathing was rapid, his heart filled with lingering fear and regret.

If that seventh-grade alchemy master really wanted to deal with him, he only needed to spread the word, and several Dou Zong powerhouses from the Black Corner Region would come and raze his Blood Sect to the ground.

This is troublesome...

……

"That little brother... seems to be treating me quite well." Elder Qing felt good about himself and licked his red lips.

"At least it will remind me to leave Blackseal City sooner."

One of his subordinates broke out in a cold sweat. "Can you please stop being so narcissistic? They might just be having a good time."

"In any case, our chances of survival on this trip lie with that seventh-grade alchemy master..." Elder Qing exhaled a deep breath. "We must get along well with that little brother. Right now, we can only hope that White Fang is reliable and not just a mount."

"Or if that doesn't work, seduction isn't out of the question."

After all, for a young and handsome seventh-grade alchemy master, these conditions combined are practically impossible to meet, not to mention his terrifying background, which even the manor lord is extremely wary of and has ordered everyone in the manor not to provoke him.

"The Eight Doors are acting; all onlookers, please step back immediately!"

A shout rang out across the sky.

Hundreds of people clad in black armor surged out from all directions of the street, blocking the many onlookers. The leader, a middle-aged man with particularly exquisite black armor, was blind in one eye. This was Yuan Yi, the leader of the Eight Doors.

After dispersing the crowd, Yuan Yi turned to Medusa with a fawning smile, bowed, and said in an unusually respectful tone, "This Dou Zong lord, I am Yuan Yi, the head of the Eight Doors. This time, the alchemist's breakthrough was due to my negligence. These medicinal herbs are to atone for my sins..."

Having said that, he respectfully handed over a storage ring.

"Old fox."

"sycophant..."

Many powerful onlookers around them twitched at the corner of their eyes, cursing inwardly, "What a sucker!"

“No need, withdraw your troops…” Cai Lin glanced at Yuan Yi indifferently and said calmly.

"Okay, sure."

Yuan Yi quickly waved his hand, and the soldiers disappeared into the crowd again, handing over a black gold card.

"This is a token of our sincerity, and it's accepted at all major auction houses within the Black Corner Region. Please accept it with gratitude..."

"it is good."

Cai Lin glanced at Yuan Yi, raised her hand, and the black card appeared in her palm.

"..."

Yuan Yi grinned and turned to leave.

While many others cursed him, they were secretly envious. This move had clearly made that Dou Zong expert and the mysterious seventh-grade alchemy master remember Yuan Yi. In the future, they might first seek out the Eight Doors for cooperation, since it was obvious that the other party came from out of town and had no foothold here.

Whoever wins favor first will have the opportunity to get closer to the other person.

He's truly a shrewd person.

The cards given away were also quite significant. The identity card that Xiao Yan obtained from the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion signified that Xiao Yan and his companions were newcomers. The so-called medicinal herbs were naturally useless in the eyes of a seventh-grade alchemy master, but these cards, which allowed them to easily travel through the various Black Corner Regions without having to apply for them separately each time they went, were extremely useful and saved them a lot of trouble.

As the fragrance of the elixir gradually faded, the onlookers also dispersed. Visiting at this time would be tantamount to provocation. If the person was still around a few days later, visitors would naturally flock to him.

……

On the other side...

Xiao Yan, disguised as another young man, wandered through the market of Black Seal City, trying to activate his protagonist's aura to find some mysterious small iron pieces, a dilapidated cauldron, and...

"Ugh?"

Xiao Yan looked slightly surprised. He picked up a storage ring, weighed it in his hand, and looked at the stall owner: "How much is this storage ring?"

"After all, it's a high-level storage ring, and it's sealed. If we could break the seal, there would be countless treasures inside, worth ten million gold coins." The stall owner licked his lips, revealing a greedy smile.

“One thousand gold coins,” Xiao Yan said expressionlessly.

Stall owner: "..."

His expression was somewhat displeased: "Are you kidding me?"

"You were the one who teased me first. A high-level storage ring is worth at most 100,000 gold coins. If you can't open it, it's still a piece of junk. And even if I bought it and opened it, if it's empty inside, wouldn't I be losing a fortune?" Xiao Yan chuckled.

"A maximum of 200,000 gold coins, not a penny more."

"Sell!" The stall owner had obviously left the stall unattended for a long time. Hearing Xiao Yan's words, he gritted his teeth. If it was just a piece of scrap metal sitting in his hands, it would be good to sell it for 200,000 gold coins.

"Ha ha……"

Xiao Yan played with the light blue high-grade storage ring, a smile playing on his lips, a mixture of surprise and delight...

Chapter 82 The Old Man in the Storage Ring, Han Feng (Fifth Update)

Seeing Xiao Yan return in a daze, they ignored them and went straight into the secret room.

Cai Lin's eye twitched, and she sighed helplessly, rubbing her forehead: "This guy..."

Inside a sealed room.

Xiao Yan fiddled with the high-grade storage ring, gradually covering his palm with strange fire to slowly fade away the remaining seal. In less than half an hour, the light blue storage ring was completely exposed to Xiao Yan.

After examining the contents, they were quite substantial, including numerous rubbings of second to sixth-grade pill formulas and a wealth of medicinal herbs. The price alone exceeded five million gold coins.

Clearly, the previous owner of this storage ring was an alchemist.

And more importantly...

"The Burning Manual, a Fragment."

Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes, examining a tattered scroll with four large characters prominently displayed on it. However, the Burning Technique seemed to be original, while the fragments were added later by someone.

After a quick glance, I noticed that there were quite a few markings.

It's more like a logbook.

[In the Central Plains calendar... this is my second year being taken in by my teacher, learning alchemy. Today I finally advanced to the first rank. My teacher praised me as a prodigy. I'm so happy...]

[In the third year, I advanced to the second rank, making me one of the most talented individuals in the entire Starfall Pavilion. However, Gu Ling completely ignores me and even secretly instigates our teacher to be wary of me. It's truly despicable, and I will surely punish that old scoundrel.]

[In the sixth year, I advanced to the third-grade alchemist. My teacher finally taught me the Burning Technique, and I was appointed as the young master of the Starfall Pavilion. I am humble, cautious, and low-key...]
