Reaching the pinnacle from Doupo

Chapter 311 Leaving Dragon Island and Returning to the Branch Hall

Donglong Island Treasure House.

At a certain moment, ripples like water waves slowly appeared on the mirror-like shield.

Then, a small hand suddenly stretched out from the ripples, and without damaging the shield, it directly passed through the indestructible double-layer shield of space and energy, and then squeezed the whole person in.

"Hehe, even the defenses of Dragon Island can't stop me!"

With a smug smile, Zi Yan identified the location and immediately skipped towards the secret vault, humming as she walked: "Heaven-level fighting skills... Heaven-level fighting skills..."

Half an hour later, she walked out of the secret vault, took a few herbs, and left the treasure house contentedly.

...

The moment Zi Yan left the treasury, the space fluctuated slightly, and two old men appeared out of thin air in the empty treasury.

"This girl is so careless! How can my ancient dragon clan's treasure house only have one kind of prevention measure?"

Looking at the purple figure that was leaving, Zhu Li shook his head helplessly and turned his head to look at the old man beside him: "Great Elder, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you! But that girl took away a set of human race's heavenly fighting skills."

"I guess she came here to get it for Lin Yuan!"

“However, that fighting skill is exactly the one we were going to give to Lin Yuan as a token of our gratitude for the Three Thousand Thunder Illusions! What should we do with it…”

"That's it, just right!" Great Elder Qingshan waved his hand and said meaningfully: "Compared to us old guys giving it away dryly, the princess giving it in this way... is more effective!"

"Although there is no subjective consciousness, instinct is indeed the top predator! Capturing people's hearts, hehe..."
-
The next day, in the central hall.

"Elder Zhuli, we are sorry to bother you for many days... We will take our leave now." Lin Yuan bowed and said in a deep voice.

"You're welcome." Zhu Li smiled gently and said seriously: "Zi Yan is away, so please take care of her. You are welcome to come back to Donglong Island at any time! Zi Yan, listen to Lin Xiaoyou's advice when you are away..."

"Yes! I will take care of Zi Yan's affairs." Lin Yuan nodded seriously.

"Don't worry, old man Zhuli!" Xiao Ziyan waved her hand casually and said confidently: "Next time we meet, my strength will surprise you..."

"You girl...forget it, go ahead, I won't keep you here!" Zhu Li waved his hands helplessly.

Seeing this, Hei Qing on the side chuckled, and then waved his hand, tearing a crack in the space, and laughed loudly: "Princess Zi Yan, Brother Lin, Sister Qing Lin, I will take you to the Beast Realm, please!"

Lin Yuan smiled, clasped his fists towards Zhu Li again, and then stepped forward. Afterwards, Zi Yan, Qing Lin and Hei Qing followed closely behind.

After all four people entered, the space crack slowly dissipated.
-
Occasionally, low roars of animals could be heard from the lush mountains.

As the roar spread, a crack suddenly appeared in the air, and Lin Yuan and the other three slowly walked out of the crack.

"call--"

Stepping out of the space, Lin Yuan looked at the mountains in the distance, then raised his head to look at the blue sky and let out a sigh of relief. Compared with the dark and monotonous void, the vibrant scenery before him made him feel more relaxed.

"Brother Lin, this is the northeastern part of the Beast Territory. I'll take you there."

Hei Qing looked around, identified the direction, and chuckled, "When I have mastered the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Bodies you gave me, I will go to Shengdan City to find you and obey your orders, haha..."

Hearing this, Lin Yuan shook his head and said calmly: "Send... Brother, you are joking. I am sorry to bother you this time."

"Okay, I won't say any more words, let's say goodbye here!" Hei Qing didn't say any more nonsense, nodded to Zi Yan, tore the space again, and drilled in...

"Let's leave too!" Seeing Hei Qing leaving, Lin Yuan smiled slightly, called out to the two girls behind him, then turned around and flew to the west. Qing Lin and Zi Yan followed closely.

"Young Master, where are we going after we come out?" Qing Lin asked softly, looking at Lin Yuan in front of him.

If you sense her breath carefully, you can find that Qing Lin, who was a six-star Dou Zong more than ten days ago, has now reached the level of a seven-star Dou Zong.

This is mainly due to the feedback from Xiao Cai.

Qinglin and Xiaocai established a covenant of equality with the power of the Green Snake's Three Flower Pupils. With Xiaocai's cooperation, Qinglin could obtain Xiaocai's energy. This rapid breakthrough was due to the extremely pure energy provided by Xiaocai.

As for Xiao Cai, after digesting many rare treasures and an eight-colored raw stone in the past four months, not only did her bloodline undergo a transformation, but her cultivation also improved to the level of Dou Zun.

The powerful eight-colored bloodline gave Xiao Cai a solid foundation, and its energy was extremely pure.

Last night, Qinglin broke through the barrier with the pure energy provided by Xiaocai, and naturally succeeded in breaking through and stepped into the realm of Seven Star Dou Zong.

Hearing Qing Lin's question, Lin Yuan turned around and said gently: "Let's go to the Nine Nether Earth Python first and catch an eighth-level snake monster for you. However, before that, I have to go to the Twenty-third Earth Demon Hall of the Soul Palace to get some information."

At this point, he looked at Zi Yan and said, "Zi Yan, you will take care of and protect Qing'er for a while."

Hearing this, Zi Yan patted her plump chest and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will take good care of Sister Qing Lin."

In her rather amusing tone, she even deliberately emphasized the word "sister"!
After hearing Zi Yan's words, Qing Lin narrowed his emerald green eyes slightly and looked at Lin Yuan and Zi Yan meaningfully. A hint of struggle flashed across his eyes, and there was a hint of resentment in the look he gave Lin Yuan.

Feeling Qing Lin's gaze, Lin Yuan smiled awkwardly, turned his head to look forward, sped up a bit, and rushed towards the 23rd Hall of the Disha Palace.

The information mentioned in the Soul Order needs to be dealt with quickly.

Three streams of light, one green, one blue, and one purple, cut through the sky and disappeared into the horizon in a few blinks of an eye.
-
Two days later.

Southern Region, the 23rd Hall of Disha Palace.

The hall exuded a cold and chilly aura, with masses of black mist passing through it. At a certain moment, a deep crack suddenly appeared in the void in front of the hall, and then a young man in black walked out from it.

At this moment, as if sensing the young man's breath, two streams of light shot out from the depths of the hall and stood respectfully in front of the young man.

Looking at the handsome and familiar face of 'Hunyuan' in front of them, they both bowed.

"I am Zhaixing, your subordinate, and I am honored to meet His Majesty Yuan Tianzun!"

"Your subordinate Lan Yue greets Lord Yuan Tianzun!"

“Get up, hehe!” Lin Yuan smiled in the style of the Soul Palace, then raised his right arm and said calmly: “It’s been a long time since we last met, there’s no need to be polite! In addition, we are both Heavenly Lords, so you can just call me ‘Hun Yuan’.”

The identity of 'Hun Yuan' is actually recorded in the Soul Clan. He is a true hidden genius of the Soul Clan. "Thank you, sir!" The two of them stood up slowly as they were told.

"Let's go, we'll talk in detail in the hall." Lin Yuan naturally led the two of them to the main hall. "It has been half a year since I returned. How are things going?"

"Don't worry, Lord Hunyuan, everything will go well." Looking at the calm and composed young man, a trace of deep awe appeared in the eyes of the old ghost Zhaixing.

Unlike Lan Yue, he knew the true identity of the person in front of him. He was the future star of Danta, who had recently become famous in Zhongzhou, and was recognized as a peerless genius with a ninth-grade appearance, and an eighth-grade six-color alchemist - Medicine Lord Lin Yuan.

Thinking of the medicine refining certificate in the ring, Zhaixing felt very excited - as long as he gathered one more set of medicinal materials, he could obtain a pill and advance to the Seven-Star Dou Zun.

At this time, the flattering voice of Lanyue Tianzun sounded at the side: "Congratulations, sir, on your advancement to the two-star Dou Zun. I admire your talent!"

Hearing this, Brother Zhaixing finally realized that the young man in front of him not only made great progress in alchemy skills, but also seemed to have made great progress in his cultivation in half a year.

When the two first met, Lin Yuan was only a six-star Dou Zong. In just one year, he has advanced to a two-star Dou Zun?
Thinking of this, Zhaixing couldn't help but take a breath, and the awe in his eyes increased a little more... This is the posture of a Fighting Saint!

“Two-star Dou Zun? Hehe…” After a playful smile, Lin Yuan’s voice became more serious, and he said in a deep voice: “By the way, I received a heavenly message from the Soul Order. It was a message from the deputy hall master, asking me to come to the 23rd Hall to pick up an important item.”

"It's just that I was in seclusion and trying to break through before. It was only recently that I had time to come and get it. Is that true?"

"Reporting to the Lord, it is true!" said the old ghost Zhaixing respectfully.

"More than two months ago, the main hall sent a scroll and asked us to keep it safe. When you return, we will hand it over to you directly. This item is extremely precious, and we have kept it in the secret vault in the hall."

Although the three of them were walking at a surprisingly fast pace, they had already arrived at the meeting hall of the 23rd Palace while they were talking.

"I see. Thank you for your help! Please take a seat..."

Lin Yuan nodded, sat down in the main seat of the hall, waved his hand, and chuckled, "By the way, how is the progress of the things I asked you to do before?"

Zhai Xing Lan Yue looked at each other and nodded at the same time, "Don't worry, sir, everything is progressing well..."

Star-Picking Heavenly Venerable was the first to speak: "I have accomplished the task of bringing fame to 'Abyss Heavenly Venerable'!"

Lan Yue Tianzun added: "The collection of colorful stones and the collection of information about the Skeleton Mountain Range and its surrounding areas have already achieved phased results! My Lord, please look, these are the colorful stones and information that can be obtained..."

As she spoke, she took out a storage ring and handed it to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan took the ring and looked at the items inside. A hint of joy flashed in his eyes. "I actually got two seven-colored raw stones. The harvest is not bad."

Then, he took out a notebook from the ring and quickly read the information in it.

After a long while, Lin Yuan slowly closed the notebook in his hand and said with satisfaction: "You two have done a great job. I will reward you handsomely later! In the future, I will trouble you two to continue to assist me. Now, take me to the secret library..."

"Yes!" Zhaixing Old Ghost quickly stood up and made a gesture of invitation, "The secret vault is over here, sir, follow me."

As he spoke, he and Lan Yue led the way in front, guiding Lin Yuan deep underground.
-
Hall 23, in a quiet palace.

Sitting on the throne in the hall, Lin Yuan looked at the ancient scroll in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his face became more solemn. "This scroll is not given to me by the deputy hall master... but by Hunxuzi?"

From the scroll, he could feel the soul breath of Hunxuzi.

"What exactly is this thing? What is his plan? Never mind, I won't think too much about it. If it is a blessing, it will not be a disaster. If it is a disaster, it cannot be avoided. One look will tell..."

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan took a deep breath and spread out the scroll in his hand.

The next moment, a soul power rippled out, Lin Yuan's eyes flickered, and his consciousness entered a courtyard filled with the fragrance of medicine.

In the courtyard, a man in black stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the sky dimly.

As if he had sensed something, the man turned around slowly and looked at Lin Yuan with interest: "Long time no see, my beloved disciple, Lin Yuan, or Medicine Lord? Medicine Lord, this title is good and suits you very well, hehehe..."

"This is... such a wonderful soul illusion." Looking at the man in black in front of him, Lin Yuan smiled gently and bowed, saying, "Long time no see, Teacher Hunxuzi..."

The two looked at each other and smiled similarly on their faces.

After half an hour.

On the throne, Lin Yuan regained consciousness and his eyes became clear again. He looked at the scroll in his hand quietly.

A ray of mysterious soul power flew out from the scroll, cutting a crack in the void like a knife, and swam in front of Lin Yuan, "Good disciple, your condition is accepted by the master! You must complete the task assigned by the master, hehe..."

As soon as he finished speaking, this strand of soul power drilled straight into the crack in space and disappeared from his sight in an instant.

"As expected of a ninth-grade Xuandan Grandmaster, a soul that has reached the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Realm. His attainments in soul power... far exceed my current level!"

Taking a deep breath, Lin Yuan secretly admired in his heart.

It has to be said that although Hunxuzi's character is not very good, his ability is indeed impeccable - he is most likely the number one alchemist in the Douqi Continent.

The reason for this judgment is that while this person is capable and has the support of the strongest force, he has no bottom line. He can trample on and destroy the bottom lines of many alchemists without any care.

In this way, although Hunxuzi has a very bad reputation, his alchemy skills are compatible with both good and evil, and are more extensive and comprehensive than those of other ninth-grade grandmasters.

"But he is very generous this time. A heavenly level soul skill? But..." Thinking of what Hunxuzi told him, Lin Yuan's eyes sank slightly.

“How could the situation change so much in just a few months?”

"The Thunder Clan's First Thunder Ceremony actually involved all the ancient clan bloodlines. Although it was not my intention, it seems that I have been involved in the struggle between the imperial clans after all. Hunxuzi, you are so active in involving me, you are really a good teacher of mine!"

"However, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish! Although the risk of getting involved in this matter is great, once it is successfully completed, you will be able to obtain Hunxuzi's ninth-grade alchemist inheritance..."

After muttering the word "ninth rank" several times, Lin Yuan's eyes could not help but show a hint of heat, and he made a decision in his heart.

"However, Hunxuzi asked me to snipe Hunfeng and prevent him from winning the championship. Is this a fight within the Hun clan? In addition, he also wants me to gain Danta's trust by defeating Hunfeng, so that I can enter Danta's upper echelons as soon as possible and wait for his orders..."

Thinking of a possibility, Lin Yuan's eyes narrowed: "The current Danta, what is worthy of his attention...Danta Ancestor?"
