People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

"Danta's calculations are really shrewd. The list is full of rare medicinal materials rarely seen in the outside world. If you want to pass this second round of assessment, you have to get these medicinal materials, otherwise you can only pay for it out of your own pocket." After putting away the scroll, Xiao Ling couldn't help but curl his lips slightly and complained.

"After this round of assessment, I wonder how many rare medicinal materials Danta will be able to accumulate from it? With so many contestants, if each of them gets one, Danta's collection will surely be much richer."

At this moment, Xiao Ling seemed to sense something, and his gaze suddenly focused on the void in front of him.

There, the space was rippling like the surface of water, and then a girl in purple jumped out lightly from the distorted space, gradually becoming clearer like a phantom, and finally appeared completely in Xiao Ling's sight.

This person is none other than Zi Yan.

"Hehe, Xiao Ling, you are here as expected." As soon as Zi Yan appeared, her eyes accurately caught Xiao Ling's figure. Without the slightest hesitation, she leaped lightly and rushed straight towards Xiao Ling like a stream of purple light.

Seeing this, Xiao Ling couldn't help but smile. He opened his arms and gently embraced Zi Yan's light and petite body.

"Zi Yan, how did you find me? Could it be that you have been exploring this Dan world for some time?"

Xiao Ling held Zi Yan in his arms, his eyes fixed on her big eyes that sparkled like purple gemstones, and asked softly with a hint of curiosity.

Zi Yan twisted gently in Xiao Ling's arms, finding a more comfortable position to snuggle in. With a very complacent smile on her face, she said casually,

"The interactions between you and me have already infused you with the unique aura of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. In this Shengdan City, the distance is not too far, so I can clearly sense your presence. Therefore, finding your location is a piece of cake for me. However, your guess is not completely accurate."

"I first sensed that you had entered a somewhat strange space, and then I thought that you might have passed the first round of assessment and entered the second round of the Dan Realm test. So, I found an opportunity and took the opportunity to enter this space. Relying on the induction of that aura, I successfully found you in the end."

After listening to Zi Yan's explanation, Xiao Ling showed a look of understanding and nodded slightly. Then, with a trace of concern in his eyes, he asked: "If that's the case, then when you sneaked into this Dan world, you shouldn't have attracted the attention of others, right?"

"Don't worry, don't underestimate me. There were quite a few people entering this space at that time, and the coming and going of people had already caused quite a stir."

"Thanks to my methods, I blended in silently. The tiny disturbance I caused was already covered up by the movements of others. Therefore, no one was aware of my whereabouts."

Zi Yan shook her head slightly, her tone revealing confidence. With her Taixu Ancient Dragon clan's unique talent for the power of space, no one would be able to discover her previous traces without a Dou Sheng powerhouse's careful inspection.

The three Danta giants were only at the peak Dou Zun level, and it was impossible for them to notice the commotion she had caused earlier.

Xiao Ling was not surprised by Zi Yan's words. After all, in the original book, Zi Yan could quietly travel into this Dan Realm space with only the seventh-level cultivation.

And now Zi Yan's cultivation has broken through to the eighth level. In addition, as a member of the Taixu ancient dragon clan, her control over the power of space is exquisite. Naturally, she can act more secretly without being noticed by others.

Zi Yan did not continue the previous topic. She blinked and asked with interest,

"Xiao Ling, what should we do next? Since entering this special space, I have sensed the unique scents of many rare medicinal herbs. What do you think, should we take all of these herbs away?"

"Haha, I knew you were most interested in medicinal herbs. Don't worry, I will go with you to search. Together we can definitely find a lot of rare medicinal herbs. If there is anything you like, as long as it has roots and can be recultivated, I can give it to you as a snack."

Xiao Ling looked doting, stretched out his finger and gently touched Zi Yan's nose, speaking in a gentle tone.

"Yeah! Xiao Ling, you're the best!" Zi Yan's eyes immediately sparkled with excitement when she heard Xiao Ling's answer. Miss Zi Yan loved this kind of adventure, treasure hunting, and collecting rare medicinal materials.

Zi Yan's liveliness and cuteness made Xiao Ling's heart feel a little tender. He couldn't help but gently reach out and stroke Zi Yan's silky purple hair.

Then, Xiao Ling unfolded the sheepskin map he had taken from Elder Liao earlier. The lines on the map clearly outlined the contours of the Dan Realm, and several important medicinal material growing sites were clearly marked with red circles.

"This is the Wanyao Mountain Range, the place with the largest range and the richest variety of medicinal materials in the Dan World. Let's go there to explore first, I believe we will gain a lot. If your curiosity cannot be satisfied there, then I will accompany you to continue treasure hunting in other treasure places."

Xiao Ling glanced at the map and made the suggestion with confidence.

After saying this, he turned his wrist and put the map properly into the ring. At the same time, he gently put Zi Yan down from his arms and naturally took Zi Yan's white and smooth little hand.

Relying on the general outline depicted on the sheepskin map and comparing it with the surrounding terrain features, Xiao Ling quickly determined their current location and the correct direction leading to the Wanyao Mountains.

With the direction determined, Xiao Ling moved, and every step he took seemed to create ripples in the void. His figure leaped in the space, and every step he took covered a distance of more than ten feet, as if he was shrinking the earth into an inch, as smooth as flowing clouds and running water.

While leading Zi Yan on the journey, Xiao Ling did not slack off at all. A surging soul power surged between his brows, spreading out in all directions like a tide, as if forming a living human radar, taking in everything within a thousand feet radius.

In this vast area, no matter the hidden human figures, lurking beasts, or growing medicinal herbs, none of them can escape the perception of Xiao Ling's soul power that has reached the great perfection of the spiritual realm.

With such a powerful soul power, coupled with Zi Yan's Taixu ancient dragon bloodline and her innate talent for treasure hunting, the rare medicinal materials in the alchemy world would naturally be exposed in front of the two of them.

In this Dan world, the rare natural treasures that have been nurtured for countless years have long been destined to be discovered and carefully packaged by Xiao Ling and Zi Yan, and will eventually become the precious harvest of their journey...

……

This is a vast wasteland. The ground is covered with yellowish sand. The scattered green is like the tenacious mark of life, struggling to show vitality and vigor in this desolation.

From time to time, small magical beasts suddenly jumped out from the ground on the wasteland, raising a cloud of yellow dust. Their figures instantly broke the silence and quickly disappeared at the end of the sight.

The silence of the wasteland lasted for a while, until at some point, the void suddenly fluctuated, as if the space was gently moved by an invisible hand. Then, a man and a woman appeared hand in hand in this desolate land, stepping lightly onto the land.

The people who appeared here were naturally Xiao Ling and Zi Yan.

The two men stopped on a higher sand dune, and after standing firmly, their eyes turned into the distance.

The sight passed through the rolling yellow sand dancing in the wind. The usually silent and desolate plain seemed unusually lively today. On that sandy plain, dozens of figures were standing or moving.

Each of them was wearing an alchemist's robe, with the hems fluttering in the wind. Obviously, these people were all contestants in this alchemy conference.

At this moment, in the rolling yellow sand, more than ten people could be vaguely seen besieging a huge monster that was more than ten feet long.

The brilliant aftermath of the fighting spirit bloomed in the air, as dazzling as fireworks. The shouts of battle shook the heaven and earth, echoing across the desolate wilderness.

"Zi Yan, the treasure you told me you could sense before, is it in the direction of those people?" Xiao Ling withdrew his gaze from the distance and turned to ask Zi Yan beside him.

The two of them had been on their way non-stop, searching for rare medicinal herbs along the way. Whenever Zi Yan sensed something, she would give a hint, and the two of them would stop together to explore the natural treasures hidden in the wilderness.

The two of them had reaped a lot of rewards from climbing over mountains and crossing rivers along the way, collecting many rare treasures that were seldom seen in the outside world. The three rare medicinal herbs that Xiao Ling needed to complete the assessment were also obtained early on thanks to their joint efforts.

This time, they landed on the sand dunes in this wasteland for the same reason.

However, according to Zi Yan's previous description, the aura of the treasure she sensed this time was far more rare than what they had encountered before. It was undoubtedly a rare treasure that was rarely seen.

Zi Yan nodded gently, with a confident light in her eyes. She raised her chin slightly and said firmly: "Yes, Xiao Ling, don't worry. My intuition has always been accurate. There must be a good treasure there."

"Let's go. We have to hurry over and drive away those insignificant characters. Otherwise, the good things that I have set my eyes on will be taken away by others first..."

As she spoke, she stretched out her finger and pointed in the direction of the fierce fighting in front of her, with a hint of impatience in her expression.

"Since you are so sure, we should not hesitate and should hurry over. Judging from their appearances, the battle should be over soon."

Xiao Ling nodded in agreement, and without further delay, he held Zi Yan's hand, leaped up, and quickly flew towards the war-torn area.

Xiao Ling's heart was also full of anticipation for the so-called rare treasure that Zi Yan mentioned.

Nowadays, Zi Yan's vision is extremely picky. Generally speaking, Zi Yan is almost too lazy to even look at those medicinal materials that have not reached the eighth level.

And anything that she regards as a treasure must have an extraordinary origin and must be very different.

With the speed of Xiao Ling and Zi Yan, it would only take a few dozen breaths of flying at full speed. The wind whistled in their ears, and the scenery in front of them passed by as fast as lightning.

From afar, the battle scene over there was in clear view. A team of alchemists, about a dozen people, worked together to fight fiercely against the ferocious snake-like monster.

The demon beast showed no sign of weakness. It twisted its huge body, opened its bloody mouth, and fought back fiercely. But under the joint attack of the group of alchemists, it gradually became powerless.

In the end, under the unremitting siege of the crowd, the monster was unable to resist. Although it made a final struggle and counterattack before death, it was still smashed to pieces by an alchemist with the power of thunder.

Chapter 442: Earth Core Soul Essence

However, just when these alchemists had just killed the snake-shaped monster, a figure appeared and broke the tranquility after the battle. It was a man with bulging muscles holding a fine iron steel stick. He had a ferocious smile on his face, looking fierce and arrogant.

He wielded the heavy fine iron rod and mercilessly attacked the alchemist who was closest to the snake-shaped monster in the previous battle. The steel rod cut through the air, making a sharp whistling sound, as if it was going to smash everything that blocked it to pieces.

The alchemist was caught off guard. Facing this sudden attack, he had no time to think and could only quickly crush the space stone he received before entering the Dan Realm. In a flash of silver light, the man's figure disappeared in an instant, escaping from this sudden life-and-death crisis.

The man with the iron rod looked at the place where the alchemist just disappeared, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then the fierce light in his eyes flashed again, and he turned his murderous gaze to the other alchemists present.

The rest of the people present, facing the brutal methods and terrifying strength of this strong man, couldn't help but feel terrified. For a moment, everyone looked at each other, and no one took the initiative to make up their minds and dared to stand up and fight him.

Seeing this, the strong man curled his lips in contempt, and the iron rod in his hand was covered with blood. He swung the iron rod violently, and with a gust of wind, he hit the giant python hard and flew away.

As the giant python's huge body drew an arc in the air, a deep sunken pit instantly appeared under the sand dune.

In the pit, a dark yellow rhizome as big as a child's head caught everyone's eyes and was particularly eye-catching.

"Is this Rehmannia glutinosa?"

As the dark yellow rhizome-like object the size of a human head appeared before their eyes, a burst of exclamations suddenly broke out from the crowd around them.

At the same time, Xiao Ling and Zi Yan followed like shadows, flew silently to the crowd, and landed lightly on a sand dune not far away.

Both of them had cleverly concealed their aura, so those who were concentrating on the Rehmannia glutinosa did not notice their sudden arrival.

Xiao Ling's gaze fell on the sturdy man, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily. He saw that his muscles were bulging, his face was ferocious, and he looked extremely strong.

He secretly thought that it was hard to associate such a person with the gentle and refined alchemist.

Alchemists are usually proud of their status, behave in a gentle manner, and have an elegant temperament. How could an alchemist have such a rough appearance...

Xiao Ling's eyes glanced and fell on the fifth-grade alchemist badge on the man's chest, and he immediately had an idea in his mind.

This alchemist badge was probably obtained by this person through some extraordinary means, which allowed him to participate in this alchemy meeting.

This person's purpose was obviously to search for rare medicinal materials in this precious land of Danjie.

Since Danta does not strictly review the participants of the Dan Conference, similar situations have occasionally occurred in previous Dan Conferences.

Although Danta has extremely strict management of the alchemist badges and forbids forging or impersonating other people's badges, there are always some people who are lucky enough to break the law and take risks...

The strong man looked at the thousand-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa in front of him carefully, and a proud smile quickly bloomed on his face. He was obviously very satisfied with his gains this time.

Then he quickly stretched out his big, rough, and powerful hands, ready to put the treasure safely into his bag.

However, just when the sturdy man's fingers were about to touch the Rehmannia glutinosa, it seemed to be attracted by some inexplicable force and suddenly trembled slightly a few times on the ground.

Then, it transformed into a flash of light and rushed away from the crowd at an astonishing speed.

This unexpected turn of events made the strong man's face change suddenly. He subconsciously stretched out his hand and tried to catch the escaping Rehmannia glutinosa, but in the end he just grabbed a handful of air in vain.

He didn't have time to think about it, his heart was burning with anger, his eyes widened, his face flushed red, and his gaze swept like lightning in the direction where the Rehmannia glutinosa disappeared.

Before he could figure out who was behind this, he couldn't help but start cursing, his voice filled with rage and murderous intent:

"Which bastard has the guts to steal the treasure I worked so hard to get? Don't you want to live?!"

"Haha, a mere Dou Huang dares to be so presumptuous to me. In all these years, you are the first person who dares to speak to me like this."

However, the response to this strong man was a faint chuckle, the tone revealed three parts of amusement and seven parts of indifference, which made people shudder.

As the man's words fell gently, the yellow sand around him seemed to be instantly solidified by some mysterious force, and then they began to slowly settle.

In this sudden silence, everyone's sight finally penetrated the sand curtain and saw a pair of figures not far away. They were a man and a woman, and they were looking at everyone with indifferent eyes.

The man who had spoken earlier was now leisurely playing with the thousand-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa he had just obtained, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were coldly fixed on the sturdy man.

When everyone recognized Xiao Ling's recognizable handsome face, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically at the same time.

The sturdy man holding the steel rod turned pale in an instant, his pupils shrank sharply, and his hair stood on end, as if his heart had fallen into the abyss and was icy cold to the bone.

"Snap!" With a crisp sound, the steel rod fell to the ground. The strong man hurriedly bent over, his face showing fear, and he stammered an apology.
