Battle Through the Heavens: Emperor's Son Xiao Yan

Chapter 82 Wutan City

As night fell, Saint Pill City fell silent, except for the bustling Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion. ♝🐜 👌🎈

The leading elder of the Pill Tower, an eighth-rank elder, raised his wine cup with a smile and addressed the crowd: "Gentlemen, the Holy Son of the Xiao Clan has finally left our Pill Tower! Come, let's drink to the departure of this little tyrant!"

"Cheers, cheers!" All the elders were all smiles. Those who were drinking here were all teachers from the Danta Junior Class.

"Once this little tyrant leaves, those students will no longer be able to take advantage of him. These kids have Xiao Yan's protection, so they usually act all high and mighty."

Now that Xiao Yan is gone, we'll naturally have to give them a good beating.

"Indeed, these brats are far too arrogant, daring to talk back to this old man. They'll have to suffer for the next six months!"

An elder chuckled sinisterly.

"They can cause us some trouble, but we can't afford to mess with those two girls. Otherwise, when the Little Tyrant comes back, we'll probably be humiliated by him," an elder said warily.

"Not bad, not bad, but those two girls are currently being taught by the Medicine Master and the Xuan Yi Guild Master. In addition, they are exceptionally talented, so we can't interfere." Another elder nodded in agreement.

"I don't care what you do with the others, but that brat named Shi Hao must be handed over to me." A voice came, and Elder Shi, no, Elder Li, was holding a wine cup and chuckling.

"I heard that this kid was trained by a sixth-grade alchemist. This time, I'm going to capture that sixth-grade alchemist as well and let him know why his intestines smell so bad!"

"I must properly train these two, master and disciple." Elder Li's face revealed a vengeful smile, which made the other elders feel both sympathy and want to laugh.

"Old Li, you've really gone to a lot of trouble. You're truly a great teacher in our Dan Tower," an elder praised.

Elder Li smiled again.

"As a teacher, one must naturally do things personally."

"You've worked hard, Old Li. Here, let me get you a piece of pork intestine." An elder next to Elder Li said solicitously.

"roll!"

The Dou Qi Continent is vast, its area far exceeding that of Earth in Xiao Yan's memory.

Even with the combined travel speed of the two sages of literature and martial arts, it took them a full day to travel from the Central Plains to the Northwest Continent.

Using the units of measurement from his previous life, Xiao Yan calculated that the distance from Zhongzhou to the Northwest Continent was more than a million kilometers.

He doesn't yet have a precise guess as to whether the entire Dou Qi Continent is a continent or a planet, but he has already made a rough estimate of its diameter to be between several million and tens of millions of kilometers.

Given its diameter, one can only imagine how terrifying its area must be.

This enormous area has resulted in a world with an innumerable population.

The massive population and the peak development of martial arts cultivation have given rise to many individual powers that seem unbelievable on Earth.

These powerful individuals also established countless forces.

From a small mercenary group created by a Dou Shi (Battle Master) to an ancient race derived from the bloodline of a Dou Di (Battle Emperor) powerhouse, legends and stories circulate throughout this continent.

The Monster Mountain Range stretches for tens of thousands of miles; even on the vast map of the Northwest Continent, one can find a black mountain range the size of a finger.

Beside this finger are nearly ten empires of varying sizes, as well as some sects built against the mountain.

This vast, endless mountain range not only provides the surrounding empires with abundant magical beast resources, but also nurtures many powerful magical beasts within its boundaries.

The Silver Frog of the Fallen Spirit is one of the overlords of the Monster Mountain Range.

A seventh-tier magical beast is considered a top-tier powerhouse in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Apart from a few other seventh-tier magical beasts and the Beast Lord, no one in this mountain range can threaten it.

Today, the Silver Frog still lies in its old nest, in a cold pool, swimming comfortably and contentedly.

Until, a spatial rift suddenly opened above its head, causing goosebumps to rise on the skin of this top-tier toad from the Monster Mountain Range, whose intelligence was now completely indistinguishable from that of a human.

A young man in black quietly emerged from the spatial rift.

"This is just a human at the Douhuang level?" The Silver Frog of the Spirit Realm looked puzzled.

The next moment, two old men also emerged from the spatial rift.

Upon seeing the two old men, the Silver Frog plunged into the bottom of the icy pool with a splash.

Although I don't know what level these two elderly humans are at, they are definitely beings who can crush me.

"Elder Wu, bring it out," Xiao Yan said calmly.

"Yes, young master!" Xiao Wu grabbed with his large hand, and the entire cold pool, along with the water and the creatures in it, floated directly into the air, forming a huge water mass.

In the center of the water mass, a giant silver toad, over ten feet tall, was frantically swimming around.

With a flick of his finger, Xiao Wu pulled the silver toad out of the water clump, which then returned to the cold pool.

"Spare me, sir, spare me!" the silver toad cried out in human language, terrified that the old man would cut open its skull.

Humans hunting magical beasts for their magical cores has happened quite often in the Magical Beast Mountains. Of course, some humans also end up as food for magical beasts.

"Can you become human?" The boy in the middle glanced at him indifferently.

"Yes, I think so." The Silver Frog opened its big mouth, its body wriggling rapidly, and finally transformed into a short old man who was about 1.6 meters tall, with many silver bumps on his body.

Although seventh-tier magical beasts can transform into human form, they cannot perfectly transform into human form without the help of transformation pills, and will retain some characteristics of magical beasts.

"Here is a map of the Northwest Continent. Tell me where this is in the Monster Mountain Range?" Xiao Yan took out a map and placed it in front of it.

"This is the southwestern section of the Monster Mountain Range," the Silver Frog of the Spirit said, pointing to its location.

It dared not lie at this moment. Although it did not know the specific aura of the two old men behind the boy, they had definitely reached the Dou Zun level. In this remote and impoverished place in the Northwest Continent, Dou Zun experts could practically walk sideways.

"The southwestern section of the Monster Mountain Range?" Xiao Yan glanced at the Snow Spirit Silver Frog.

"Oh no, they're not planning to steal my magic core, are they?" The Silver Frog of the Spirit Realm shuddered.

Thanks.

Unexpectedly, the young man only glanced at him before leaving with the two old men.

After the three left, the Silver Frog finally breathed a sigh of relief and lay limply in the cold pool, letting its belly bask in the sun.

"Young Master, the magic core of that Spirit-Sinking Silver Frog is quite rare," Xiao Wu said on the way.

"I know," Xiao Yan nodded, "but we don't need it."

If necessary, Xiao Yan would definitely kill the demonic beast directly, but if not, he would not kill indiscriminately. This has nothing to do with mercy, but rather a principle.

Utan City is located at the foot of the eastern side of the Monster Mountain Range. Because it is attached to the Monster Mountain Range, many mercenary teams and herbal medicine teams come and go from this place.

Driven by the Monster Mountain Range, Utan City has managed to barely be considered one of the major cities in the Gama Empire, although it ranks at the bottom.

The strongest person in the city is only a Great Dou Master.

Until this day, a young Dou Huang powerhouse arrived here.

"Finally found this place." In the sky, Xiao Yan looked down at the city below and a smile appeared on his face.
