People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

Seeing this, Xiao Ling frowned slightly, then released his huge fighting spirit to steadily suppress the pressure.

As Xiao Ling's technique changed, the invisible flames wrapped around the withered skin seemed to come alive, condensing into the shape of a fire python. It coiled in a serpent formation, guarding Xiao Ling and Zi Yan. The fire python raised its head high and let out a deafening roar at the blue-red clouds.

At this moment, a fire seemed to ignite within the crimson clouds, and the roar within suddenly became incredibly painful. Before long, the murderous roar abruptly ceased, leaving only a pure and overbearing wave of energy spreading through the room.

Seeing this, Xiao Ling retracted the pressure he had released before. The purple light on Zi Yan's body also began to dissipate gradually, but as she looked at the body of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, her eyes revealed a trace of increasingly obvious disgust.

"It seems that this guy was not a good person when he was alive, and he is still so restless after his death." Zi Yan curled her lips with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.

Xiao Ling smiled slightly and comforted him: "Don't worry, these energies will soon be refined and become the materials we need."

As the Fallen Heart Flame continued to burn, the withered skin finally reached its limit. With a slight "bang", the green-red mist completely seeped out, and the withered skin could no longer withstand the high temperature of the strange fire, and exploded into countless ashes, which fell gently. At the same time, ten green-red claws fell from the ashes, and they were shining with sharp cold light.

The blue-red clouds in the air began to spin, forming a vortex, collapsing towards the center, and gradually shrinking in size. In the center of the vortex, a blue-red light became increasingly stronger.

When the last wisp of mist was absorbed, an irregular crystal flashing blue and red appeared in the air, emitting dazzling light, as if it contained infinite power.

When Xiao Ling saw this, a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes. This crystal was the magic core of the Sky Demon Phoenix, and the essence of its life.

Afterwards, Xiao Ling retracted the invisible flames that filled the hall. He walked forward and reached out to catch the magic core of the Sky Demon Phoenix.

A satisfied smile appeared in his eyes, and he whispered to himself, "This is the magic core of a seventh-level peak Heavenly Demon Phoenix. It is really a rare treasure. Even an ordinary eighth-level magic core may not be able to compare with it. When the time comes, the seventh-grade pill refined with this magic core will definitely be among the best pills of the same level."

Then, Xiao Ling took out an exquisitely decorated jade box, carefully placed the magic core of the seventh-rank Heavenly Demon Phoenix into it, and gently closed the lid. Afterwards, he put the jade box into his storage ring to ensure the safety of the treasure.

Zi Yan's eyes were attracted by the ten sharp claws of the Sky Demon Phoenix. A hint of excitement flashed in her eyes, and she said to Xiao Ling: "Use those ten claws to make me a pair of boxing gloves. I want to use them to hit people. It must be very powerful."

Hearing Zi Yan's words, Xiao Ling was slightly startled, and suddenly an idea flashed through his mind. He remembered that he had drawn a pair of boxing gloves that were very suitable for Zi Yan in the system, but he was too busy to give them to her. Now it seems that it is time to take them out.

So, Xiao Ling smiled easily and made up an excuse: "I found a pair of boxing gloves when I was searching for treasures in the Black Horn Region some time ago. I think they are suitable for you. I was so busy that I forgot to give them to you. Now that I remember them, I'll give them to you."

Xiao Ling waved his hand lightly, and the Longyuan Kongling boxing gloves extracted from the system appeared in front of him. The boxing gloves were floating quietly, as if they had their own life. Its appearance even made the surrounding space tremble slightly, as if paying tribute to it.

The light around the gloves seemed to be distorted by some mysterious force, and the deep purple-black tones merged with the surrounding space, and the boundaries became blurred, making it difficult to distinguish.

Zi Yan was confused by Xiao Ling's words, but when her eyes fell on the boxing gloves, her eyes immediately flashed with excitement, as if she had discovered a treasure. She stared at the boxing gloves tightly, as if attracted by some kind of magic, and could no longer look away.

Looking at the boxing gloves, Zi Yan felt a strong feeling in her heart, as if she had met her destined partner. She felt that the boxing gloves were tailor-made for her and perfectly suited her fighting style.

Seeing Zi Yan's delight, Xiao Ling smiled slightly, then waved his hand, and the boxing gloves floated lightly in her direction. Seeing this, Zi Yan immediately took the boxing gloves into her arms, with a happy smile on her face.

She played with the gloves, her eyes sparkling with excitement, and asked with a smile: "Hehe, I like this pair of gloves so much! What's its name? Why do I feel like there is a kind of dragon power in it? It should be made of materials from dragon monsters, right? But it seems to be a little different from my bloodline, so it shouldn't be made of materials from the Taixu Ancient Dragon, right? But this material doesn't look simple either..."

Hearing Zi Yan's words, Xiao Ling couldn't help but tap her head lightly, and said with a slightly amused tone: "What are you talking about? In the Douqi Continent, who dares to use the materials of the Taixu Ancient Dragon to make weapons? Don't even think about such a thing. Even the top forces dare not offend the Taixu Ancient Dragon. Don't talk nonsense outside."

He paused and continued, "This boxing glove is called the Longyuan Void Spirit Boxing Glove. As for what material it is made of, I'm not too sure. Anyway, just use it."

Xiao Ling shook his head slightly, with a helpless smile on his face. He knew that Zi Yan had not yet returned to the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, and had not yet truly realized the power and majesty of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. If the elders of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan heard Zi Yan's remarks, they would probably be very angry.

Zi Yan was flicked on the forehead by Xiao Ling. She stuck out her tongue playfully and said with a heartless smile: "Hey, I understand. I won't say nonsense again in the future."

Xiao Ling did not continue to talk about this issue, but changed the subject and said to Zi Yan: "Now, you only need to drop a drop of blood on it, and this boxing glove will recognize its master. Once the recognition is completed, it can be stored in your body and be ready to be summoned and used at any time."

Zi Yan followed Xiao Ling's instructions. She gently cut a small cut on her thumb and squeezed out two drops of dark golden blood. They dripped onto the two gloves, as if they had found a home.

The moment the blood touched the gloves, they emitted a faint purple light, trembled slightly for a few times, and then turned into a stream of light and merged into Zi Yan's fist. On the skin on the back of her hand, two dragon-shaped patterns flashed for a moment, and then disappeared.

Under Xiao Ling's guidance, Zi Yan completed the blood-recognition ritual. She felt that she had established an inexplicable connection with the pair of boxing gloves, as if the boxing gloves would immediately appear on her fists as long as she had a thought.

According to this feeling, Zi Yan tried to summon the boxing gloves. Suddenly, a shadow of a boxing glove appeared above her fist, and then the shadow gradually became solid and began to shrink until it perfectly fit her fist and was exactly the same as her hand shape.

Zi Yan excitedly put on her boxing gloves, then swung them gently. The collision of her two fists actually caused a slight spatial fluctuation in the room.

"Wow, these boxing gloves are so cool!" Zi Yan was having a lot of fun. She felt as if she had new power, and every punch was full of rhythm and power.

Seeing this, Xiao Ling quickly took action to calm the ripples in space. He reminded helplessly: "We are still in the space wormhole, don't get too excited. When we get to Zhongzhou, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to test the power of this thing."

Hearing Xiao Ling's words, Zi Yan stuck out her tongue, and with an intention, she took the gloves back into her hand, giggled and said, "I don't want to play with you anymore. I'm going to go play with Qinglin and the others." After that, she jumped open the door and left the room.

Xiao Ling looked at Zi Yan's departing back and shook his head helplessly, but with a doting smile on his face: "This girl will definitely not behave herself in the future. I just hope she won't cause any trouble in the space wormhole."

After retracting his gaze, Xiao Ling looked at the wings of the Sky Demon Phoenix again. A fiery look appeared in his eyes, and he immediately began to refine his flying fighting skills...

Chapter 302 Arrival in Zhongzhou

The silvery-white halo circulated around, and the space seemed to ripple gently like water waves. A luxurious ship was wrapped in a faint light cover and was flying steadily in it. In this monotonous and mysterious shuttle process, time seemed to lose its concept and become blurred.

On this spaceship, a woman with flaming red hair was operating almost mechanically. From time to time, she raised her hand and swung out a stream of fighting spirit, which was then absorbed by the receiving equipment on the ship. She had repeated this action countless times and seemed to have mastered it to perfection.

The girl looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, and was about the same height as Qinglin. The most striking thing about her were her eyes, one of which was clear blue, and the other was deep red.

These strange eyes are because she was originally a transformed monster, and her body is a two-headed fire snake. In the monster form, she has two heads. Although she did not retain this feature after transforming into a human, this pair of heterochromatic pupils has become her unique symbol.

The two-headed fire snake had long ago become Qinglin's powerful snake pet. Not only was it very intelligent, but after years of careful training, it had grown into a fifth-order peak magical beast, and its strength was a world apart from what it was at the beginning.

Xiao Ling had previously collected several Transformation Pills in the Pill Palace of Gui Ling Zun. Since this guy was quite likable and had made a lot of efforts in obtaining the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, Xiao Ling was inspired and gave it a Transformation Pill. This allowed this fifth-level monster to transform into a human form in advance.

Receiving such treatment made Qinglin's other snake pets feel envious and jealous of this guy.

On the deck of the spaceship, Zi Yan leaned against the railing, playing with the seven-colored Sky-Swallowing Python in her hand. Her eyes casually swept across the monotonous scene in the space channel, revealing a hint of obvious boredom.

For someone as energetic as Zi Yan, being trapped in such a small space and not being able to move around freely is really a torment.

She retracted her gaze and turned to the Little Medical Fairy who was concentrating on flipping through a book. There was a hint of laziness and impatience in her tone: "Little Medical Fairy, how long have we been flying? Why haven't we reached Zhongzhou yet? I'm almost bored. How long will it take us to reach Zhongzhou?"

"About twenty days have passed, and I haven't paid much attention to the time. But Yao Lao mentioned before that it should be here soon." Hearing Zi Yan's complaint, the Little Medical Fairy closed the book in her hand, turned around and answered easily.

Even someone as calm as Xiao Yixiang couldn't help feeling a little bored facing this monotonous journey.

The novelty that the few people had felt about traveling through the space wormhole has now disappeared.

Qinglin, who was not far away, had just finished feeding a few pet snakes. Hearing the conversation between the two, he smiled at the red-haired woman at the bow and said, "Xiaohuo, we have to speed up. Everyone is getting a little impatient waiting."

Although Qinglin spoke softly, the two-headed fire snake could not help but feel worried. It thought to itself, if I had known earlier, I would not have taken on this tough job just to please my little master. It was really a living hell.

It shook its head helplessly and could only speed up the input of Dou Qi. As the input of Dou Qi increased, the speed of the spaceship also increased a lot.

……

In these monotonous and repetitive days, time seemed to have wings, and two days slipped away quietly.

The sun shone on the deck, and Zi Yan and her two friends lazily leaned against the railing, chatting casually. At this moment, Xiao Huo's voice at the helm floated into everyone's ears with undisguised excitement and a sense of relief.

"Master, ladies, we are about to reach the exit of the space wormhole!" Xiaohuo's voice seemed to inject a dose of vitality into the peaceful scene, instantly lifting people's spirits.

Hearing Xiaohuo's words, Zi Yan, Qing Lin and Xiao Yixian immediately looked up and saw a silver halo looming in the darkness in the distance. That was the exit of the space wormhole.

Before they could get excited about leaving this depressing place, they heard a "click" sound from behind, the sound of the door opening. Then, Xiao Ling appeared at the door.

"Haha, it seems I'm here at the right time." Xiao Ling said with a smile as he walked towards them.

Little Doctor Fairy couldn't help but purse her lips and smiled, teasing: "You, did you calculate the time to come out? You are really bad to the extreme."

Xiao Ling shrugged and responded nonchalantly: "Sometimes, things seem to be arranged, and they always turn out so well..."

"We're here, ready to go out!" With these words, the spacecraft glided silently to the dark entrance of the wormhole.

Xiaohuo carefully reduced the output of his fighting spirit, and the speed of the ship gradually decreased. Finally, it stopped steadily in front of the film-like wormhole exit, only half a meter away from the exit.

After more than 20 days at the helm, Xiaohuo's driving skills have reached perfection. And he himself may not know that from now on, he will become Xiao Ling's exclusive boatman for traveling through the space wormhole.

……

In front of him was a vast plain full of life. In the center of the plain was a square covered with gravel. In the center of the square, many mysterious and complex symbols were drawn on the ground. These symbols emitted a faint silver light, which seemed to imply some kind of spatial power.

The square was quiet, but suddenly, a gust of wind blew up without warning, and then a silver halo appeared out of thin air in the center of the square. A ship flashed through the halo, quickly shrinking, and finally four figures jumped out of the halo.

As the four people landed, the silver halo gradually dissipated.

Xiao Ling and his companions stood on this new land, bathing in the long-lost sunshine. Xiao Ling couldn't help squinting his eyes, took a deep breath, and then said softly with a hint of satisfaction and expectation: "Zhongzhou, we are finally here..."

"Finally we're out. I was almost bored in that space wormhole." Zi Yan stretched and complained. Her face was full of impatience. Obviously, the life in the space wormhole for more than half a month was really boring for her.

Xiao Yixiang's eyes wandered among the crowd in the square. She noticed that everyone coming and going was at least a Dou Ling-level warrior, and the guards who were maintaining order on the side had a strength of at least Dou Wang five stars.

"This is Zhongzhou? It seems like there are many experts here." The Little Medical Fairy looked around and commented softly, "Also, the air here seems to be filled with more heaven and earth energy, much richer than that in the northwest continent."

Xiao Ling responded with a smile: "This is not the most prosperous area in Zhongzhou. Once you get there, you will know what it means to have Dou Zongs walking all over the streets and Dou Huangs as numerous as dogs." He continued with a hint of light-hearted humor in his words.

"Zhongzhou is not comparable to the remote areas in the northwest. There are much more opportunities and strong people here, so we have to be careful." While saying this, Xiao Ling also deliberately glanced at Zi Yan. This girl is not someone who can stay content.

But Zi Yan didn't seem to be listening to Xiao Ling at all. She was looking around excitedly, full of curiosity about the new environment.

Seeing this, Xiao Ling shook his head helplessly. Just as he was about to remind him again, Qing Lin had already asked obediently, "Master, how should we go now?"

Qing Lin's question made Xiao Ling stunned for a moment. He had never been to Zhongzhou and really didn't know what to do next.

"We must first find someone who knows how to ask for directions and get a map. Otherwise, we will really get lost in this huge Zhongzhou." Xiao Ling said easily as he strode towards the city gate in front of him.

Seeing that Xiao Ling had already started to move, Xiao Yixiang, Zi Yan and the others quickly followed his pace.

The city gate was bustling with activity, with vendors and pedestrians passing through, creating a bustling atmosphere. The security here was also very strong, with several Dou Wang-level guards, including one who had reached the Dou Huang level. Their sharp eyes inspected every pedestrian entering and leaving.

After Xiao Ling and others paid one hundred gold coins each, they successfully entered the city.

Entering the city, they found that the flow of people was even more dense, shops were lined up on both sides of the street, hawking sounds were heard one after another, and the air was filled with the aroma of various foods, making people salivate.

Xiao Ling scanned the bustling crowd, looking for someone who might be able to help. His eyes finally settled on an old man who looked quite experienced and was sitting leisurely behind the stall.

"Old man, can you tell us where we can buy a map?" Xiao Ling walked forward, smiled slightly, and asked politely.

The old man raised his head and looked at Xiao Ling and his group with his deep eyes. Then he smiled kindly and pointed to a road junction not far away. "Go to that road junction over there, then turn left and walk a short distance to get there. There is a map shop over there. You can go there and take a look."

"Thank you, old sir." Xiao Ling said gratefully, leaving a third-grade pill as a thank you gift, and then took Xiao Yixiang, Zi Yan and the others and moved forward in the direction indicated by the old man.

The figures of Xiao Ling and his companions gradually disappeared into the distance, but the old man's gaze still lingered in the direction they left.

His voice was hoarse, and he whispered to himself, as if recalling something, "These young people are not simple. That soul, could it be the stubborn little guy back then? Haha, it seems that Zhongzhou is going to be lively, and I should consider reincarnation."

The old man's figure gradually became blurred in the crowd. He seemed to be completely out of tune with the surrounding noise. He just disappeared without attracting anyone's attention.

Following the old man's instructions, Xiao Ling and his companions crossed the busy street. There were a wide variety of shops and stalls on both sides, and various hawking and bargaining sounds were heard one after another.

Soon, they saw the map shop the old man had mentioned. Hanging at the door was a huge map covered with complicated lines and symbols.

Xiao Ling did not delay any longer and walked briskly into the store with the three girls. There was an old man in the store, with a businessman's shrewd look on his face, and he was obviously a businessman. Xiao Ling took a quick look and found that the old man's strength was about the level of a fighting master, and his cultivation talent could almost be considered negligible.

"Dear guests, are you here to buy maps?" As soon as the old man saw Xiao Ling and the others coming in, he immediately came up to them warmly, with a smile on his face full of anticipation.

"Give me the most complete map of Zhongzhou." Xiao Ling said easily. His eyes slowly moved around the store, carefully looking around, but soon he found that there was nothing new here that he expected, so his eyes returned to the old man, "By the way, tell me where this place is."

"Haha, little brother, you've come to the right place." The old man took out a beautifully decorated map scroll from behind the counter with a sly smile and handed it to Xiao Ling. "This is the treasure of our store, the essence of the Zhongzhou map. With my exclusive information, it's worth a total of 100,000 gold coins. It's definitely worth it."

"One hundred thousand gold coins..." Hearing this price, Xiao Ling couldn't help but roll his eyes, thinking that this old guy was asking for too much, but for him, this amount of gold coins was really nothing. He didn't say anything more and paid the full amount of gold coins.

The little medical fairy took the map and examined it with great interest, with curiosity gleaming in her eyes.
