Traveling through the heavens from swallowing

Chapter 404: Douqi Continent, clan leader Xiao Zhan, unified Wutan and created a martial arts method!
The night was dim, with a silver moon hanging high in the sky. Under the endless clear light, in an elegant villa built against the mountain, a strong man opened his eyes.

"Who wakes up first from the dream? I know it myself." The man's eyes flashed with the changes of the universe and the passage of time, and he couldn't help but recite a line.

But soon, he shook his head and said dissatisfiedly: "No, it's too literary, I should say my fucking Reiner!"

There is no doubt that this is Liu Mang who traveled through time to avoid being erased by the memory of the original universe.

He stood up and checked his condition.

He has a strong build and tight muscles. He grabs the top of an ordinary person's head with one hand and lifts him up.

I touched my chin and it felt hairy and prickly. It must be a big beard.

There is a manic force running in the body, and there is a green vortex in the dantian, 80% of which is filled with liquid energy, and every drop of liquid energy contains great power.

"8-star fighting master, what a weak power." Liu Mang complained about himself.

"Douqi Continent, Jia Ma Empire, Wutan City, Xiao Family, Patriarch Xiao Zhan? I actually became the protagonist's father?" Liu Mang said with a smile. This was the first time he had the chance to win without doing anything.

"However, the memory was restored too late. The Xiao family has moved to Wutan City. My adoptive father Xiao Lin is dead, and the Xiao family has fallen into unprecedented weakness. Xiao Yan has also been born. In another 12 years, Nalan Yanran will come to cancel the engagement and slap me in the face!"

Liu Mang frowned, "That's not right. Xiao Lin died so early. He died before I even became a great fighting master. How can I become the clan leader? Although he died at this point in the original novel."

In the original novel, Xiao Lin was seriously injured and died in a battle with his enemy when Xiao Yan was three years old, but no one thought it was a problem at the time.

Now when I compare my own situation, it seems that there is a problem.

I'm a fucking 8-star fighting master and I'm the clan leader. Is there no one who objects?

He immediately thought of the system. Although he had traveled through time and space so many times without his parents being alive, he always had basic security for his identity.

"System, thank you!" He muttered to himself, not knowing whether the system could hear him.

Xiao Zhan has average talent. He is 32 years old this year, but still has only the cultivation level of an 8-star fighter.

Although Xiao Zhan was himself who had not recovered his memory, Liu Mang still felt a little disgusted.

Xiao Zhan is not good at practicing, nor is he good at doing business. At this start, he is not even as good as Lin Zhennan, the Master of the World.

"But it doesn't matter. I'm here. Xiao Zhan's name will surely resound throughout the Douqi Continent, not because of my son!" Liu Mang was full of confidence.

The Douqi Continent is not a powerful world. Even if the Dou Emperor's comprehension of the laws is taken into account, his strength is at most at the level of a marquis, or even just an ordinary immortal.

In terms of combat power, the Douqi Continent does not have any particularly strong performance, but the application of the laws of space is very in-depth. A Dou Zun can establish a stable space channel, while in the Devouring Star Universe, only the Universe Zun can do it.

“So the purpose of this world is to fill in the gaps in the law of space and other laws, so that all ten laws can reach the point where they are only one step away from being fully understood?” Liu Mang pondered, it was not impossible.

He has no shortage of energy at all. The original body of the Devouring Star Universe has reached the peak of the Realm Lord. The energy possessed by all the clones combined is far greater than that of an ordinary Lord of the Universe. He also has the original treasure, the Heart of the Destiny Tree, and the Mother of the Universe is feeding him when he breaks through. He has no shortage of energy at all.

All he lacked was the understanding of the laws.

"It's a very suitable world." Liu Mang nodded with satisfaction.

There may be some problems with timing.

It wasn't a long time from the beginning of the story to Xiao Yan's ascension into the sky.

For Liu Mang, ascension is extremely terrifying, so he will not choose to ascend. If so, he will not know how long he can stay here.

"Forget it, let's just muddle through. I'll stay as long as I can. At least I have to comprehend the laws of space and fire to their limits."

He has already comprehended the law of time to its limit. If there is also the law of space to its limit, the fully comprehended laws of time and space only need a slight fusion to break through to become the master of the universe.

In this way, he can break through to become the Lord of the Universe at any time without having to take the path of the Beast God, which is an extra guarantee.

However, Liu Mang himself prefers to follow the path of time and light beast god, which will be of great benefit to his future research on the fusion of laws.

When I opened the system panel, the system prompt sounded.

It’s pretty much the same as before, four main quests and one talent draw.

【main mission:
1. Revitalize the Xiao family and become a Dou Sheng on your own;
2. Wash away the shame and destroy the Yunlan Sect and the Soul Palace;
3. He wanted his three sons to become Doudi;
4. Become a great alchemist and refine more than one imperial-grade elixir. 】

Liu Mang has read the main quest. He only has one comment but no pursuit!

Even the most difficult task 4 only required refining one or more imperial-grade elixir, and there was no hope of reaching a level above the Dou Emperor.

And what about this mission one? Are you not satisfied with the original version where you were pulled to the Dou Sheng realm by Xiao Yan’s blood feedback? Why do you have to do it yourself?

The meaning of this mission should be that he should cultivate to the level of Dou Sheng before Xiao Yan becomes Dou Emperor.

This is not a problem for Liu Mang at all. Not to mention the Fighting Saint, even the Fighting Emperor is not impossible.

There are only two sources of energy left in the entire Douqi Continent that can help one break through to the Dou Emperor. The strange fire is his son's path, so he won't touch it. Can't he touch the prototype of the Emperor Pill in the Tushe Ancient Emperor's cave?

Can Taixu Ancient Dragon Emperor defeat him, or can Soul Emperor beat him?

In terms of combat skills and power control, Liu Mang could say that the entire Douqi Continent combined could not catch up with his hundreds of thousands of years of accumulation.

"It seems that my road to becoming the Doudi will be smooth, haha!" Liu Mang chuckled.

Then, he saw his own talent that had been drawn out.

"All beings are equal (white passive): When you start fighting with an enemy, you will gain the same cultivation as the enemy. (Equality is not just empty talk, but must be put into practice. The system cannot tolerate the big bullying the small, and ensures that the fight is fair and beautiful)"

Liu Mang spat out a mouthful of blood and was almost suffocated by this talent.

What’s the point of my cultivation? Once the fight starts, even if I’m a Fighting Emperor, I will only have the cultivation level of a Fighting Master when fighting against a Fighting Master enemy!

Your fucking system is blatantly going against me!

The talent in the Naruto world already had the meaning of limiting him, and now the equality of all beings was clearly limiting him.

With his experience, it would be easy for him to break through to the Dou Di level in a dozen years, and there were basically no enemies during this period, so he could directly develop to the great success.

When he breaks through to become a Doudi and goes out to travel the world, who in Douqi Continent can be his opponent? The whole world is his backyard!
So the system is not satisfied, can I let you come over for vacation?

So all beings are arranged equally!

Fortunately, the function of this talent is not to synchronize the enemy's cultivation to his level, otherwise, the future Douqi Continent will be a chaotic battle among Dou Emperors, and the world will be destroyed.

"Oh, never mind. It's also an early guarantee. At least I'm invincible now." Liu Mang comforted himself.

Although his cultivation level will not be higher than that of his enemies in the future, he is still confident in his strength.

The same power, if used well, can crush those used mediocrely.

"Anyway, this world doesn't need me to rule the universe. The tasks I need to complete are basically all about farming. I'll just treat this as a place where I can comprehend the laws and practice secret techniques. As long as I pretend that this talent doesn't exist, it won't have any effect on me!" he sighed.

With his talent, he is not afraid of one-on-one fights, but group fights.

Even he didn't have 100% confidence that he would not fail if beaten by his peers.

It would be even more troublesome if the besiegers had different levels of cultivation. If the system gave him the same level as the weakest one on the other side, he would be in a difficult situation.

Fortunately, he is the clan leader, and he will make a rule in the future that soldiers will fight against soldiers, generals will fight against generals, and kings will fight against kings. As the clan leader, he will naturally fight against the opposing leader in a duel. Even in this case, he still dares to claim to be invincible!

"Knock knock knock" Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Chief, it's time for the old chief's funeral. Are you okay? Do you want to postpone it for a while?" The servant outside the door asked cautiously, fearing to anger the new chief whose father had just died.

"Funeral?" Liu Mang was stunned, then he remembered that his cheap father Xiao Lin had just died a few days ago. The funeral should have been held yesterday, but because he fainted after his memory recovered, it was forced to be postponed.

I looked up at the moonlight outside the window and realized that it was only around 3 a.m. Who would have a funeral at this time?
"Put it off till the morning. What a ridiculous funeral at night!"

A powerful voice came from the room, and the servant quickly took his leave and went to notify that the time had been postponed again.

Snapped!
"Hmph! How can Xiao Zhan be so unfilial that he actually lets his father's body rot instead of burying him in peace as soon as possible!" The eldest elder of the Xiao family slapped the table and shouted angrily.

The second elder and the third elder also looked very unhappy. This was indeed a bit too much.

You, Xiao Zhan, have health problems, and I am already feeling very sorry for the old patriarch by postponing the time to let you rest. But you actually want to postpone it until dawn?
You know, since the funeral was ready yesterday, Xiao Lin's body has been moved from the ice coffin to the wooden coffin. It's been so hot, and it's been delayed until now and it's already started to stink. If we don't bury it quickly, it will just rot!

The whole family is waiting here in mourning, and you, Xiao Zhan, go back to sleep. Do you think you can be the clan leader like this?

Unfortunately, Liu Mang is the patriarch, and if he said to wait until dawn, then we have to wait until dawn.

As time passed, everyone in the hall watched the three elders' faces becoming increasingly darker, and they all fell silent.

The three elders were of the same generation as Xiao Lin, and they greatly admired Xiao Lin, a talented patriarch who had devoted his entire life to the family.

In comparison, Xiao Zhan has mediocre talent and is disrespectful to elders. The three elders have every reason to be dissatisfied with him.

They all lamented, "A tiger father has a dog son."
The sky finally brightened, and Liu Mang straightened his clothes and walked into the hall.

Liu Mang, dressed in mourning clothes, walked to the center of the hall with the gait of a dragon and a tiger. He glanced around, and his invisible aura immediately suppressed everyone, causing them to swallow the complaints they had prepared in their hearts all night.

The three elders were extremely surprised. How come this kid's spirit and demeanor changed so much after just one night? I even didn't dare to look him in the face!

As he arrived, a beautiful woman came over with two children, a 7-year-old and a 5-year-old, and a 3-year-old baby in her arms.

"Master!"

Liu Mang recalled his memory. This was his wife in this life, the mother of Xiao Yan whose name had never been mentioned. Her name was Luo Shan. She was not Gu Wenxin in the TV version of Battle Through the Heavens. She was just an ordinary person who didn't even have the cultivation level of the first level of fighting power.

Of course, it is not quite accurate to say that she is ordinary. After all, she is now the wife of the head of the Xiao family. She has no problem walking around in Wutan City, and she is indeed beautiful.

The three elders were dissatisfied with Xiao Zhan, partly because he married such an ordinary person.

Luo Shan is only 26 years old this year, but she has already given birth to three sons with Liu Mang. The eldest son, Xiao Ding, is 7 years old this year. It is obvious that she got married very early.

Although the Douqi Continent possesses the extraordinary power of Douqi, it is still backward. Getting married at the age of sixteen is a common phenomenon. Luo Shan and Liu Mang are considered to be late in marriage and late in childbearing.

Liu Mang took the three-year-old Xiao Yan and teased him for a while, then returned him to Luo Shan and ordered the funeral procession to officially begin.

The Doupo world is an ancient society, and Xiao Lin is a patriarch. His funeral is luxurious and time-consuming.

A full half month later, the Xiao family gradually calmed down and resumed their previous operations and production.

In the Xiao family hall, three elders and Liu Mang were discussing matters.

The three elders were all worried because with the death of Xiao Lin, the Xiao family had lost their only Dou Ling and their strength was no longer enough to suppress the Gale family and the Oba family who were also in Wutan City.

Over the past half month, the two families and the Xiao family have been in constant conflict, forcing the Xiao family to shrink its power and give up some of its interests.

In the past, the Xiao family was the undisputed king of Wutan City, but now, there is a trend of them becoming one of the three major families.

Although the three elders were dissatisfied with Liu Mang as the clan leader and often opposed him, they still valued the interests of the Xiao family very much and were not the kind of people who would betray their own people. This was also the reason why Liu Mang could tolerate their existence.

"The Oba family mainly runs casinos, so they don't pose much of a threat to us for now. But the Gale family also runs a market town like us, and there is currently a huge business conflict between them, which needs to be resolved in a limited way." The great elder said worriedly.

There are currently four medium-sized markets in Wutan City, three of which are owned by the Xiao family. The Jialie family only occupies one in the north of the city, so naturally their power is not as great as that of the Xiao family.

However, the Xiao family lost the suppression of the Dou Ling, and the person with the highest cultivation in the family is only the current great elder, who is only a 3-star Dou Master and cannot resist the wolves.

The Jialie family is not as good as the Xiao family in business, but their strength is already a threat to the Xiao family. The family also has three great fighters and an elder who is a 4-star great fighter.

If a war breaks out between forces of this strength, the Xiao family will also suffer heavy losses.

In the original novel, the Xiao family probably managed to balance the crisis by transferring the market town to the Oba family and pulling them into the market, which also laid the foundation for the situation in which Wutan City was divided into three parts in the future.

But now that Liu Mang is here, the Xiao family naturally doesn't have to choose such a conservative approach.

A faint green fighting spirit emerged from Liu Mang's body, gradually covering his body, and finally gathered on his face to form an illusory lion head.

The Xiao family’s top-level martial arts: Intermediate Xuan-level·Raging Lion’s Fury!

The three elders stood up at once, looked at Liu Mang in shock and said, "Seven-star Grand Fighter!"

Liu Mang restrained his fighting spirit and motioned for the three elders to sit down and talk.

Even after they sat down, they were still distracted, muttering, "How is this possible? He was only an 8-star Dou Master half a month ago."

Liu Mang smiled and said softly, "Can you really confirm that I was an 8-star fighter half a month ago?"

The three elders were shocked. Yes, just because he appeared to be an 8-star fighting master at that time, it didn’t mean that he really had the ability to be an 8-star fighting master. Patriarch, you are hiding your abilities!
The second elder sighed, "Patriarch, you really made it difficult for us to keep this secret!"

You hid it so much that we almost had to hold a clan meeting to remove you from office!
The first elder and the third elder were also somewhat frightened. Fortunately, they gave up on impeaching the clan leader because of Xiao Lin. Otherwise, they could not imagine what would happen to them if the clan leader, a seven-star great fighter who practiced intermediate Xuan-level martial arts, was impeached.

"Pass on my order to completely encircle and destroy the Galie family's business and force them to use force. Once they take action, notify me and I will personally take action to put an end to their arrogance!" Liu Mang said coldly.

"Yes!" the three elders said sincerely.

Wutan City is under the jurisdiction of the Gama Empire and is a legal zone. They cannot carry out massacres openly.

Only by letting them take the initiative and the Xiao family destroying them in the name of self-defense can they shut up the imperial officials who don't want to get involved in this matter.

Killing a family for a reason is called self-defense, while killing a family for no reason is called defying authority. Liu Mang understands this.

A month later, in the Gale family, the patriarch Galebi was in a state of panic, and the two elders beside him had gloomy faces.

"Over the past month, the three markets of the Xiao family have joined forces to siege our market, and a large amount of business has been snatched away by the other side. If this continues, we will not be able to bear the losses." Galbi said.

Elder Jia Lie snorted coldly: "Xiao Lin is dead, and the Xiao family still dares to be so arrogant. I think it is better to send out thugs to smash their three markets directly. Let's see if they dare to be so arrogant!"

He is the strongest fighter in the Jialie family, a 4-star master fighter. He feels that no one in the Xiao family can match him after losing Xiao Lin, so he wants to give it a try.

Jialebi shook his head: "This is not a lawless area. If we hire thugs to cause trouble now, everyone will know that it was us who did it, and they will give us excuses to blame. So, contact the Oba family and the other eight small forces in the city and ask them if they are interested in the Xiao Family Market."

The second elder's face changed and he asked, "Patriarch, are you going to unite with them to put pressure on the Xiao family? Although this can solve the current problem, most of the Xiao family's interests will also be given up!"

"The temporary gains and losses are not important. As long as my Jialie family can stabilize the current situation and pull the Xiao family off the altar first, we will always have the opportunity to take the lead in the future. We must take it step by step. It is absolutely not advisable to eat a big fat man in one bite. The revival of the family must be done slowly." Jialiebi shook his head.

The first and second elders looked at each other and exclaimed: "Respect the clan leader's order!"

Then on the third day, the Gale family, together with the Oba family and the leaders of eight prestigious forces in the city, visited the Xiao family, saying that they wanted to discuss the future development and stability of Wutan City.

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this was an attempt to force the Xiao family to make sacrifices.

No matter how powerful the Xiao family is, it is just a family. The people who came today are enough to represent the entire city of Wutan. How can the Xiao family not bow their heads?

Even when Xiao Lin was still alive, he would have to be cautious when facing such a situation.

Liu Mang walked into the meeting room with a dark face, glanced around at the greedy jackals, and sat down in the main seat.

Without waiting for the representative of these people, Galiebi, to speak, Liu Mang directly released his fighting spirit and transformed it into wings. The powerful momentum immediately shut up everyone present.

(As long as there is no real war, equality for all will not take effect)

Jialebi stared at the fighting wings behind Liu Mang in amazement, feeling like he was dreaming.

But the surging fighting spirit and pressure were real, and it almost made him kneel down with weak legs.

Everyone in the hall was trembling with fear, fearing that they might offend the great Dou Wang.

The three elders of the Xiao family almost fainted. The surprise came too quickly and they were unprepared. They almost lost their lives.

"Chief Jiale, I see you stand up. Do you want to say something?" Liu Mang narrowed his eyes and stared at Jialebi.

"Uh, ah"

Jialebi was so speechless that he kept making sounds, his legs shaking like a motor. The fact that he didn't kneel down was already due to his integrity as a patriarch.

"Hmph!" Liu Mang snorted coldly and turned his eyes away from Galiebi.

"I heard that you came to me today to discuss the future development and stability of Wutan City. I don't think there is anything to discuss. If Wutan City only has the Xiao family, it will definitely develop vigorously and steadily!"

"Do you agree with what I said?"

Everyone broke out in a cold sweat. The head of the Oba family, Obapa, understood that the time for a life-and-death test had come. He forced himself to control his shaking legs and stood up, bowing and saying:
"The Oba family feels that what Patriarch Xiao said makes sense. For the prosperity and stability of Wutan City, I, Obapa, hereby promise to lead my family to move out of Wutan City within half a year and contribute a little to the development of Wutan City. I hope that Team Leader Xiao will grant your approval!"

Even though Galebi and the other leaders were afraid, they couldn't help but turn around and look at Obapa.

Obapa's decisiveness was beyond everyone's expectations. He actually decided to abandon everything in Wutan City and find another way out in order to escape the attack from the Xiao family.

Such courage and decisiveness are worthy of the hero who built the Oba family from scratch!
At the top, Liu Mang nodded with satisfaction: "The Oba family is so determined, then I agree!"

Then, he looked at the others: "What do you think?"

With Obapa's example, if they don't follow suit, or even go a step further, their entire clan will probably die at the hands of their enemies tonight.

Let alone the tiny Wutan City, even if it were the Holy City of Gama, the capital of the Gama Empire, the laws would basically not be able to restrict the Dou Wang powerhouses.

They cursed in their hearts: Damn Obapa, raising the registration requirements so high that we have no room for maneuver, damn it!
No matter how painful it was, they still made the same promise as Obapa.

Wutan City has a Xiao family fighting king who no one can control. Other forces have no chance to play with it, so leaving is a way out.

However, Liu Mang only gave them one month to leave, not half a year like Obapa.

After all, Obapa was the first to vote and took the lead, so Liu Mang didn't mind giving him some preferential treatment.

A month's moving time certainly did not allow them enough time to slowly dispose of their property.

After all, the Xiao family will be the only powerful family left in the city, and there is no force in the city that dares to buy their property at this time.

If it were an external force, even a month would not be enough for them to come up with enough money to purchase these industries in Wutan City.

These families and forces could only reluctantly sell their properties to the Xiao family at a low price, lest they fail to dispose of them by the time the deadline comes and end up not getting a penny.

The day after the leaders of the major forces went back, Liu Mang flew all over Wutan City and its surroundings with his Dou Qi wings, letting everyone know that the Xiao family had a Dou King.

This further led to the fact that outside forces did not dare to compete with the Xiao family for the industries sold off by major forces.

In the entire Wutan City, only the Miter Auction House contacted the Xiao family and purchased some properties that they really needed.

A month later, the only forces left in Wutan City were the Xiao family, the Oba family who were preparing to move out, and the Mitel Auction House.

The Xiao family officially became the dominant family in Wutan City, and their power far exceeded that of when Xiao Lin was alive.

And all of this was brought about by Xiao Zhan, the Xiao family's patriarch who had only been in office for more than two months.

In the back mountain of the Xiao family, in the training ground belonging to the clan leader, Liu Mang stopped the fighting spirit flame in his hand, and a pill furnace slowly fell to the ground.

When I opened it, there was only a handful of ashes.

Liu Mang scratched his head: "It's really not that simple, it's really too difficult to refine pills with wind-type fighting spirit."

Yes, he was studying alchemy, and he was using wind-type fighting spirit to practice it.

This property is extremely unsuitable for alchemy. Even if Liu Mang does it himself, it is almost impossible to make the elixir.

"It seems that I still need to practice a fire-based technique and a wood-based technique, at least to adjust the attributes of my fighting spirit to an appropriate state." Liu Mang muttered.

His attribute is pure wind attribute, without the fire attribute and a trace of wood attribute that are required of an alchemist.

But this is not a problem for him. In the Naruto world, he has mastered the way of changing attributes. A single attribute can be supplemented into all attributes through acquired training. When he comes to the Fighting Spirit Continent, he only needs to modify the method according to the situation. It is not difficult to practice the fire attribute and the wood attribute.

The powerful soul perception that is essential for an alchemist is no problem for him.

Even though he came to this world as a soul without any power, his soul was still terrifyingly powerful.

According to the rules of the Doupo Cangqiong world, the soul is divided into four realms: mortal, spiritual, celestial, and emperor. His soul at this moment has reached the pinnacle of the mortal realm and is not far from the spiritual realm.

Generally speaking, only 8th-grade alchemists have spiritual souls.

Liu Mang flashed to the Xiao family's Douqi Pavilion and began to look for fire and wood attribute techniques that he was satisfied with.

This is where the Xiao family stores their fighting skills. It contains various skills that the Xiao family has collected over the past few hundred years. Of course, they are basically all yellow-level.

The level of the martial arts is not important to Liu Mang. He only needs the wisdom and ideas contained in the martial arts. He plans to create the specific martial arts himself.

The Dou Qi techniques have evolved over countless years in the Dou Qi Continent. Even the lowest level Yellow Grade techniques contain a complete and in-depth analysis of the Dou Qi system by practitioners in this world.

A yellow-level technique was enough for Liu Mang to read the wisdom of countless predecessors and get started with the fighting spirit system.

As long as he gets started, he will be able to quickly achieve great success or even perfection, and even be at the forefront of the times.

No matter which world we are in, the systematic knowledge that embodies the essence of the wisdom of the entire world is worth absorbing and learning from.

The two yellow-grade martial arts books, "Fire Energy" and "Green Wood Kung Fu", were randomly picked up by Liu Mang. Both of them were only low-grade yellow-grade martial arts books, but they were enough for him to get started.

"Qi flows through the whole body, the fire in the heart reaches the sky, and the fighting spirit ignites spontaneously."

Liu Mang put down "Flame Qi" and picked up "Aoki Isao".

"Take in the air in a tranquil manner, release the air like a rainbow, bend and straight as you wish, and this will nourish the liver and wood"

Liu Mang pondered: "This follows the path corresponding to the five elements and five internal organs. It fits most of the world and does not conflict with my previous experience. However, there are also new things."

A day later, he studied the two fighting techniques thoroughly and turned to studying the system and rules behind the techniques.

After 5 days, he made great progress in his research. Based on "The Fiery Qi" and "The Green Wood Technique", he created two new techniques, named "The Yangyan Qi Dao" and "The New Wood Growth Method", and they were of the lower earth grade!
