Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master

Chapter 271 Xiao Yan's Unlucky Physique

A middle-aged man in purple robes was following Cai Lin. With his cultivation level of two-star Dou Zun, he could easily catch up with her, but he seemed to be enjoying the chase.

"Damn it!" Cai Lin gritted her teeth, stopped, turned around, and held her sharp sword, ready to fight to the death!

"Why isn't the little beauty running away anymore? Hehehe, it's the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python! And it's Medusa, no less! I'm so lucky to have encountered such a rare beauty!"

The middle-aged man in purple laughed loudly, and then dozens more people appeared around him. Among these dozens of people were Dou Zong and Dou Huang. The entire group was of varying strengths, suggesting that they belonged to a different force.

"You dare touch me? You're not worthy! Even if I die, I won't let you, you lecherous devil, succeed!" Cai Lin shouted fiercely. She was willing to self-destruct rather than let the villain in front of her get away with it! She couldn't let Xiao Yan down!

"Hehehe, don't blame me for being ruthless..."

Before the middle-aged man in purple could finish speaking, a giant hand descended from the sky and smashed him into nothingness, along with everyone else around him.

Whoosh—

Two figures appeared in front of Cai Lin. Upon seeing the two familiar people in front of her, Cai Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

"How did you get here? This is the edge of the Northern Region of Zhongzhou. Where is Xiao Yan?" Xiao Li asked as he took out some pills and gave them to Cai Lin to heal her injuries.

"I got separated from Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor, and accidentally fell here..." Cai Lin accepted the pills and took them to heal her injuries.

"No rush, stabilize your injuries first, then tell me what happened!"

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Li erected a simple pavilion on the ground below.

Xiao Li, Yao Lao, and Cai Lin entered the pavilion for a short rest.

After taking the pill, Cai Lin's injuries began to heal gradually, and she began to recount what had happened between her and Xiao Yan.

After saying goodbye to Xiao Li, Xiao Yan and Cai Lin went to the Chuyun Empire to help Xiao Yi Xian. Xiao Yi Xian, with her Calamity Poison Body and talent for poison, thrived in the Chuyun Empire.

Not only did he cultivate to the Dou Zong level, but he also established the Poison Sect. Although the Poison Sect was a newly emerging force, it was able to crush a number of established sects and stand on equal footing with the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect!

However, Little Fairy Doctor was ultimately no match for the overwhelming forces. Behind the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect were the Soul Palace protectors and powerful Dou Zong experts from several surrounding countries. Little Fairy Doctor's side was teetering on the brink of collapse.

Fortunately, Xiao Yan and Cai Lin arrived in time and drove back all the enemies. They then joined forces with Xiao Yi Xian and assassinated the Dou Zong experts during the night. The allied forces of the several countries collapsed without a fight!

However, Scorpion Biyan of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect still gave them some difficulties. Scorpion Biyan used the traditional skill of the Izumo Empire, Demon Poison Spot!

However, one of his opponents possessed the Calamity Poison Body, and the other had the Netherworld Poison Fire. Xie Biyan could only apply the Demonic Poison Spots to Cai Lin's body, and he could only remove them by finding a Dou Zun powerhouse!

Fortunately, Xiao Yan did know the two elders of Canaan Academy, who were powerful Dou Zun experts. Xiao Yan asked the two elders to remove the demonic poison spots from Cai Lin's body.

Afterwards, Xiao Yan and the others traveled around the Northwest Continent. Xiao Yan searched for places with abundant Yang energy to help Little Fairy Doctor control the Calamity Poison Body and condense the Poison Pill. Little Fairy Doctor used this to break through to Dou Zun, and Xiao Yan also gradually refined the Wind Fury Dragon Flame and advanced to Dou Zong.

With the help of Xie Biyan's gift and Xiao Yan's pills, Cai Lin also advanced to the level of an eight-star Dou Zong.

Unfortunately, their journey through the Northwest Continent went smoothly, but an unexpected event occurred on their way to the Central Plains.

They traveled from the Heavenly Serpent Empire to the Central Continent via a spatial wormhole. They planned to first report to the Starfall Pavilion, but inside the wormhole, they discovered a massive spatial storm that was a once-in-a-millennium event, which even Little Fairy Doctor, with her Dou Zun cultivation, could not withstand.

The three were thus separated. Cai Lin was transferred to the edge of the northern region of Zhongzhou, while Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian were nowhere to be found!

Cai Lin had just recovered from her injuries when she began searching for Xiao Yan and the others, but because of her appearance, she was targeted by a lewd and depraved pleasure house!

The patriarch of the Joyful Sect, the Joyful Venerable, was the guy who was just killed by Xiao Li with a single palm strike. He had his eye on Cai Lin and wanted to take her down, but Cai Lin was lucky to run into Xiao Li and Yao Lao.

"So that's how it is. Xiao Yan's unlucky constitution is truly something else. Be careful when you're with him in the future. He's tough, so you'd better watch out." Xiao Li sighed. He hadn't expected things to turn out this way; it was a bit melodramatic.

Cai Lin nodded, indicating her agreement. Since following Xiao Yan, she had been beaten quite a bit.

"Next, you can go back to the Starfall Pavilion with Elder Yao. You're going to the Starfall Pavilion anyway, and you can meet there eventually. You don't need to worry about anything; I've placed restrictions on Xiao Yan and Xian'er."

I'll find out what happened to them. I'll go see where they are now.

Xiao Li focused his mind to sense the locations of Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor.

"Little Fairy Doctor is currently in the Southern Region of Central State, and Starfall Pavilion is also located in the Southern Region, which is great! As for Xiao Yan... he's on the other side of the Northern Region, tsk, quite far, but it's all fine, so don't worry."

"7

Hearing Xiao Li's words, Cai Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

"You should go back to Xingyun Pavilion with Elder Yao. I'll go check on Xiao Yanzi. Elder Yao, if you see Xian'er on the way, please bring her back as well." Xiao Li then transformed into a stream of light and left.

The old doctor sighed, "He's assigning me work again, but it's all my apprentices' wives. Girl, let's go."

"

The old apothecary then led Cai Lin toward the direction of the Starfall Pavilion.

In the Soul Palace, the Heavenly Palace Soul Palace Master, Soul Extinction, sat on his throne, seemingly resting with his eyes closed.

"Reporting to the Palace Master!"

An aged voice came, and Hun Miesheng opened his eyes.

Hun Miesheng said calmly, "Great Celestial Venerable, please report on your recent situation."

. . . . .

"Yes! Reporting to the Palace Master, firstly, regarding the collection of souls, the harvests from the branch palaces in various regions are the same as before, except that the harvests in the Northwest Continent are quite abundant. The twenty-four Earthly Fiend Palaces in the Central Continent are still the same as before, except that one Earthly Fiend Palace experienced a loss of soul essence some time ago. I have already executed the person in charge of that Earthly Fiend Palace, and the rest are operating as usual."

Secondly, the Styx Alliance we established in Zhongzhou is now under my control, and Youmingzi has accepted the power of my Soul Palace and reached the late stage of the Two-Star Dou Sheng realm.

Furthermore, the Heavenly Demon Lord Tianming has been promoted to a one-star Dou Sheng by his subordinates, and the Heavenly Demon Sect has gained several more Half-Saints. Even the Heavenly Ice Demon Lord of the Ice River Valley has been promoted to a Half-Saint by his subordinates. The Styx Alliance is now dominating the Central Plains!

Finally, in the Beast Domain, according to news from the Earthly Fiend Hall, a year-long barrage of pill lightning appeared over the territory of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan. This lightning included not only eighth-grade pill lightning but also black demon lightning! Presumably, there are ninth-grade alchemists refining ninth-grade precious pills among the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, and in great quantities!

That concludes the recent information!

Hun Miesheng tapped the armrest of the throne: "Black Demon Lightning? There are only so many ninth-grade alchemists on the continent. Apart from the Pill Tower, I guess only that junior from the Xiao Clan has this ability!"

Such rapid progress! No wonder you're a descendant of the Xiao clan; you truly are the mortal enemy of my Soul Clan!

The Grand Celestial Venerable cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Palace Master, there is something I do not understand!"

"Speak!"

The Great Celestial Venerable: "Where did the Vice Hall Master go? I just went to the Earth Hall and found that the Vice Hall Master is not here."

"He's dead!"
