Battle Through the Heavens: The Rock King Emperor's Leisurely Wanderings in the Mortal World

Chapter 47 A pinky promise, a hundred years from now, never to be broken.

"Okay...no...uh...anyway, Master, you can't bring back a mistress this time! Otherwise, I won't talk to you anymore!" Little Fairy Doctor said, mischievously turning her back. Then, she pretended to be angry, put her hands on her hips, and looked quite cute.

"Alright, alright, Master agrees. I won't bring your mistress back this time, are you satisfied now?"

Zhong Li looked at Little Fairy Doctor's appearance with a sense of helplessness. After all, Little Fairy Doctor at this moment was exactly like Hu Tao when she was a child, pretending to be angry.

"Really?"

"real."

"Then... pinky promise!"

"Okay, pinky promise, never to change for a hundred years."

"Pinky promise, a hundred years from now."

Zhong Li (Little Fairy Doctor): "Stamped!"

"And another thing! Master, how about you wear this mask when you go out? Xian'er bought it when she went to the lantern fair during the New Year."

After saying that, Little Fairy Doctor deftly took out a half-mask with a dark yellow color from her storage ring, and then tiptoed slightly to put it on Zhongli.

"Is it okay now?" Zhongli asked with a kind smile, in a tone as if coaxing a child.

"It's...it's okay now."

"Then I'm off." With that, Zhong Li smiled, his "Wings of Battle Aura" trembled slightly, and he vanished without a trace in an instant.

……

Little Fairy Doctor still stood in the same spot, her gaze fixed intently on the distance, her back seemingly telling of endless obsession.

Seeing this, Yao Chen shook his head slightly, and a sigh quietly escaped his lips, full of helplessness.

Just then, a scorching heat suddenly came from behind, as if a flame was quietly burning.

Yao Chen subconsciously turned his head and saw Xiao Yan slowly opening his eyes on the boulder.

His gaze was like two burning flames, deep and sharp. Then, a thick black mist slowly emerged from his mouth, like a black dragon swirling in the air.

This sudden change caused Little Fairy Doctor, who had been drawn closer by the sound out of curiosity, to stop in her tracks.

An extremely strong stench hit her, like an invisible hand that shoved her away.

Little Fairy Doctor felt a churning in her stomach, quickly turned around, ran away, and then couldn't help but start to gag violently.

"Xiao Yan, what on earth are you doing? Did you secretly eat something weird? This smell is suffocating!" Little Fairy Doctor complained loudly to Xiao Yan while dry heaving and her eyes filled with tears.

Unexpectedly, the billowing black mist was actually impurities formed by the interaction of the two divine-level techniques, "Eternal Thunder Technique" and "Burning Technique," within Xiao Yan's body, in order to purify his physique.

"Ha..." Xiao Yan slowly took a deep breath. "Wow! I've never felt so refreshed."

Yao Chen floated lightly to Xiao Yan's side, his eyes sharp as he carefully examined Xiao Yan's current state.

"Hmm, not bad. Although you are currently cultivating two low-level Yellow Rank techniques, judging from the degree of your battle qi condensation, it is already comparable to the battle qi reserves contained in a high-level Yellow Rank technique."

Upon hearing this, Little Fairy Doctor burst into laughter: "Hahaha, Senior Brother, so what you were practicing just now was actually a low-level Yellow Rank technique! Hahaha, looking at you just now, anyone who didn't know better would have thought you were practicing a Heaven Rank technique!"

"Hmph, so what? Although my Burning Technique is only at the low Yellow Rank, it's exactly the same as Master's Eternal Thunder Technique—both are growth-type techniques. Given time, it might even climb to the Heaven Rank. Unlike yours, whose technique level is stuck here with no room for improvement."

"Tch, look at you. It's just a mere growth-type cultivation technique. What's there to brag about? In the future, I will cultivate the Eternal Thunder Technique. Who can't learn it? It's nothing special." Little Fairy Doctor's lips curled up slightly, her face full of disdain. She was clearly still not recovered from the arrogance that Xiao Yan had just intimidated her.

"Hmph, I have two growth-type cultivation techniques in my hands, and at this stage I'm only slightly inferior to you. Besides, what level of cultivation technique are you practicing now? Even if your cultivation technique is of a higher level, how much higher can it be?" Xiao Yan muttered as he angrily put on his shirt.

"The Nine-Colored Poison Scripture, this is a high-level Heaven-rank cultivation technique." Little Fairy Doctor smiled slightly, her face full of pride as she replied.

"Pfft..." Xiao Yan uncontrollably spat out all the water he had just swallowed.

The latest novel is first published here!

"What did you say?!"

"A high-level Heaven-rank cultivation technique, huh? I just wonder how many strange flames your Burning Technique needs to devour to reach this level."

Little Fairy Doctor walked slowly with light steps until she stopped in front of Xiao Yan.

She extended a slender finger and gently lifted Xiao Yan's face, her gaze unwavering, and continued, "What? You're not convinced? Then let's have a go."

Xiao Yan blushed slightly, looking a little embarrassed and annoyed. He suddenly shook his head, forcefully flung Little Fairy Doctor's fingers away, and said angrily, "Hmph, what's wrong with practicing? Who's afraid of who!"

However, Xiao Yan's words had no effect on Little Fairy Doctor.

She turned around with a smile, and said with light, unhurried steps, "However, you should think carefully. With my current strength, the high-level Heaven-rank cultivation technique I possess is enough to lock down the battle qi within the entire Wutan City area. In that case, you, with only Yellow-rank cultivation techniques, will not be able to obtain any external battle qi replenishment."

Little Fairy Doctor mischievously turned her head, made a face, and said with a hint of smugness, "Hmph... So, let's not even talk about advanced gameplay like comparing fighting skills. Even if it's just about expending battle energy, I can wear you down until you're exhausted!"

Xiao Yan was instantly stunned and speechless, then slowly turned to look at Yao Chen. Yao Chen also waved his hand helplessly, then nodded slightly and said, "Little Fairy Doctor is absolutely right. A high-level Heaven-rank technique can indeed suppress your Yellow-rank technique to the point that it cannot absorb any external battle qi. This is an absolute level suppression."

"No, teacher, what I'm wondering is why my junior sister possesses a high-level Heaven-rank cultivation technique?!" Xiao Yan felt as if he had been struck a heavy blow, and suddenly felt a sense of imbalance.

"This cultivation technique was just told to me by Elder Zhongli. He said that he obtained it by chance from ancient ruins. It happens to be a complete high-level Heaven-rank cultivation technique that is suitable for the cultivation of the Calamity Poison Body. You, my junior sister, are truly extremely lucky."

"Heavens! Is this ancient ruin some kind of treasure trove for your family? How come all sorts of rare items are being found there? And Master Zhong's luck is just too good!" Xiao Yan said indignantly. "I've made up my mind that from now on, I will deeply engrave the word 'luck' into my life."
