Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 155 Returning to Zhongzhou! Lin Ran, the Lucky Guy

In the adult world, interests always take precedence. If the Black Corner Region were close enough to Tianya City, Lin Ran would probably have taken the opportunity to deal with all the Luo family members in Tianya City, and then have Green Robe send members of his sect to take over Tianya City and this space wormhole.

Unfortunately, Tianya City is quite a distance from the Black Corner Region, otherwise Lin Ran would have done much more than just casually deal with Luo Yao.

However, Lin Ran was quite satisfied with the attitude shown by the Luo family. After Luo Cheng gave Lin Ran a welcoming feast, he immediately sent over a large number of magic cores, including five sixth-order magic cores and three seventh-order magic cores.

However, what Lin Ran valued most was the magic core belonging to the Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast among these five sixth-order magic cores!

The Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast is an ancient magical beast, extremely rare. The Little Fairy Doctor's method for creating the Poison Pill of the Calamity Poison Body requires a seventh-tier Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast.

Of course, with Lin Ran around, Little Fairy Doctor wouldn't even need the Poison Pill technique, since the power of the Pure Yang Body is truly a natural counter to the Calamity Poison Body. However, this sixth-order Heavenly Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast is also quite valuable.

Luo Cheng showed his sincerity, so Lin Ran naturally wouldn't refuse him. The control of the space wormhole in Tianya City would be temporarily kept by the Luo family, which relieved both Luo Cheng and the Luo family.

However, the events in Tianya City were just a minor incident for Lin Ran.

After casually making a quick profit, Lin Ran didn't want to waste any more time with the Luo family. After resting for a day, he prepared to travel through the space wormhole to Zhongzhou.

Under Luo Cheng's respectful guidance, Lin Ran leisurely arrived at a massive black stone plaza.

The plaza was extremely spacious and constructed entirely of a black stone. Its coldness gave it a sense of solidity. At this moment, the plaza was sealed off by numerous Luo family guards. On a towering stone platform within the plaza, an extremely powerful spatial force was faintly emanating from it.

The stone platform occupies the center of the square. A glance down from this elevated position allows one to take in the entire scene of the square and even the surrounding area within a few hundred meters. At this moment, besides some powerful members of the Luo family, there are two elderly men on the stone platform who do not appear to be members of the Luo family.

These two men possessed considerable strength, both being Dou Zong level cultivators. Upon noticing Lin Ran's appearance, the two elders froze, their faces filled with tension.

"grown ups……"

"Um."

Lin Ran glanced at the two of them calmly, then turned to the center of the stone platform, where a huge, pitch-black void, about ten feet in size, was slowly rotating, with astonishing spatial power overflowing from it!

The pitch-black void, like a black hole, exudes an unusual suction force. Looking into the distance, all one can see is an endless darkness and a chilling, eerie howling sound.

It is a wormhole!

"Young Sect Master."

Luo Cheng called out softly and carefully took out an ark about the size of a palm from his storage ring. The ark shimmered with silver light, and the spatial power within the silver light was extremely dense.

After taking out the ark, Luo Cheng's face showed obvious pain, but he still presented it to Lin Ran with a fawning expression.

"Young Sect Master, please use this space ark when we return to Zhongzhou," Luo Cheng said respectfully.

"oh?!"

Lin Ran looked at Luo Cheng with surprise: "Clan Chief Luo, this seventh-tier space ark isn't cheap. If it were on the market, it would cost nearly a hundred million gold coins. What did you do...?"

"Young Sect Master, what are you saying? Luo Yao is a black sheep in our Luo family. If it weren't for you, Young Sect Master, who knows what great trouble Luo Yao would have brought to our Luo family in the future. Young Sect Master has rid our Luo family of a great scourge. Luo Cheng and the Luo family are indebted to you! Consider this little thing a token of our gratitude!"

Luo Cheng presented the Space Ark to Lin Ran with a smile.

Lin Ran casually took the space ark, played with it in his hands, and smiled faintly: "Clan Chief Luo is too kind. It's just a small matter, nothing to mention. I will definitely come to visit again after I have finished dealing with matters within the sect."

"That is an honor for the Luo family."

"Bye, bye."

Lin Ran smiled and, without further hesitation, stepped directly into the spatial wormhole.

The moment Lin Ran stepped into the spatial wormhole, he vanished instantly, a silver light slowly spreading out before finally disappearing into the pitch-black space.

Watching Lin Ran's figure disappear, Luo Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. His fawning face instantly turned cloudy and extremely gloomy.

After a long while, Luo Cheng sighed.

"Fine, consider it a loss to avert disaster, a loss to avert disaster..."

"Issue my order: effective immediately, all members of the Luo family must be disciplined. Anyone found bullying men or women, or abusing their power, will be punished according to clan rules!"

"yes!"

……

Upon entering the spatial wormhole, Lin Ran's vision suddenly went black, and his body suddenly felt a sense of weightlessness. However, this feeling quickly dissipated after a moment, and then a strange spatial passage appeared in his sight.

What appeared before Lin Ran was a spatial passage with no end in sight.

On both sides of the passage, there are faint silver spatial barriers, and within the spatial barriers is a passage about ten feet long.

At the end of the passage was a deep darkness, and the same kind of unsettling darkness extended both vertically and horizontally. Faintly, dense spatial fluctuations permeated from it. The entire passage was extremely silent, without the slightest sound.

This is the spatial passage within a wormhole.

When Lin Ran first came to this Northwest Continent from the Central Plains, he passed through this passage to arrive here. Now, Lin Ran naturally wants to travel back.

Looking at the scene inside the spatial passage, Lin Ran's palm moved slightly, and the spatial ark that Luo Cheng had given him appeared in his hand. As soon as this little thing appeared, it swelled up like a fish entering the water, and in just a few blinks, it transformed into a boat that was several dozen feet long and wide.

On the surface of the boat, wisps of pale silver spatial energy moved back and forth, looking extremely mysterious.

"A seventh-order space ark, that's quite sensible."

Space Arks are specifically designed for navigation in spatial environments. They are sold in many places in Zhongzhou and are classified into nine levels, with level nine being the highest and level one the lowest.

The higher the level of the space ark, the more stable it is.

The price of a seventh-tier space ark is nearly 100 million gold coins, comparable to a seventh-grade elixir!

Although the Space Ark is not a disposable item, its use is too limited, only suitable for spatial travel. Therefore, its value is only barely on par with that of a Danxiang of the same level.

Looking at the space ark beneath him, Lin Ran waved his hand, and a surge of powerful battle qi erupted, entering the ark's energy input point.

Immediately, the entire ark trembled slightly. Finally, a thrust burst forth from the stern, and with a whoosh, the spaceship transformed into a streak of silver light, swiftly traversing space and shooting towards the void of darkness.

Inside the space tunnel, the spaceship's speed was terrifying, almost as fast as traveling under the stars and moon. Lin Ran, sitting on the ship, could only see the silver space walls on both sides rushing backward at a speed that was dazzling to behold.

Within the silent and dark spatial passage, a silver light flashed silently, disappearing into the darkness in an instant, just like a solitary traveler in the space.

A wormhole is a spatial connection that links two points in space, making the distance between them extremely short.

With the distance of this spatial wormhole, plus the speed of this seventh-order spatial ark, Lin Ran only needs about a week to reach Zhongzhou.

If you were outside, it would take at least several months to travel from Tianya City to Zhongzhou!

The journey was naturally quite boring. In addition, although the speed inside the space passage was much faster than outside, the monotony was also more intense. The same deep darkness for a long time could make those with weak minds feel a little irritable.

However, Lin Ran was no ordinary person. He immediately sat cross-legged on the ark and entered a state of cultivation.

After all, there was still an extremely large amount of medicinal power in his body, waiting for him to digest it!

Time passed quietly, and after some bumps along the way, Lin Ran successfully left the space wormhole and returned to Zhongzhou.

After entering Zhongzhou, Lin Ran naturally felt right at home. However, he didn't dare to wander around recklessly. Although his Dou Zun strength was not bad, Zhongzhou was, after all, the central area of ​​the Dou Qi Continent, a place where Dou Zong were everywhere and Dou Zun were as insignificant as dogs.

Lin Ran naturally dared not wander around outside anymore, and soon returned to the place where his sect was located.

Cloud and Rain Sect!

The Cloud Rain Sect is a heretical sect that everyone hates, and having been driven out of the Central Continent once, this time the sect is located in a rather remote area.

In addition, the existence of the sect's formations makes it impossible for ordinary people to find the location of the Cloud Rain Sect. Fortunately, Lin Ran has a special way of locating it.

"Young Sect Master!"

"The young sect leader has returned!"

The distorted space naturally attracted the attention of countless people. Upon seeing Lin Ran, the disciples of those sects all bowed respectfully.

Lin Ran smiled and nodded in response.

"Ah, how come there are other men in our sect besides the three sect leaders? This, this..." The new disciple exclaimed, covering his mouth.

"You don't know this, do you? The young sect master is the only successor of the three sect masters, and also the only male disciple in our Cloud Rain Sect besides the three sect masters."

"The Grand Sect Master's birthday is in the next couple of days. The Young Sect Master must have returned to celebrate his birthday!"

Some of the more senior disciples covered their mouths and laughed.

"Oh! I see the young sect leader again! He's so handsome!"

"Young Sect Master, I seem to have encountered some insurmountable difficulties on my cultivation path. Could you please offer some guidance to my junior sister tonight...?"

"Ah! Young Sect Master, please kiss me!"

……

Hearing the constant sounds around him, Lin Ran felt quite helpless.

There were no men in the Yunyu Sect, so when these senior and junior sisters saw Lin Ran, their eyes lit up like tigers and wolves seeing a flock of sheep.

Although the Cloud Rain Sect was a furnace sect created by the Scorpion Demon Three Ghosts, most of its members were actually in a normal cultivation state, no different from other sects. Only some selected people would accept becoming furnaces.

In addition, due to the special nature of the cultivation method, even though this behavior seems extremely evil and inhumane, the senior and junior sisters in the sect do not think so.

In their eyes, being chosen by the sect leader or the young sect leader was a blessing, an honor...

This is the charm of the Heavenly Rank Technique, Joyful Zen Bliss Technique!

Under the watchful eyes of a group of people, Lin Ran struggled forward and finally broke free from the restraints of the soft, fragrant woman.

The original headquarters of the Cloud Rain Sect has long been destroyed, but the new headquarters is very large, covering a radius of thousands of miles.

The mountains stretch endlessly, and palaces stand in abundance. At the top of the three highest peaks, a magnificent palace stands tall.

Lin Ran's goal, naturally, was the highest palace.

Lin Ran's figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the palace.

"Master, I'm back."

Lin Ran called out softly.

"Enter."

A slightly hoarse, aged voice came from inside the hall. Lin Ran paused for a moment before pushing open the hall door and walking in.

The main hall was quite empty, with a rather thin and old figure dressed in a black robe sitting cross-legged in the center of the hall.

Around him were many scrolls of calligraphy and painting laid out quietly. Lin Ran saw countless harmonious scenes with just one glance.

Lin Ran was not surprised by this and quickly turned his gaze back to the gaunt old man.

Not bad.

This person was none other than Grandmaster Zun, one of Lin Ran's three masters, who possessed the peak strength of a Nine-Turn Battle Venerable and was the leader of the Three Ghosts of the Scorpion Demon.

Scorpio!

"Master."

"You broke through?"

Scorpion raised his head, his turbid gaze sweeping over Lin Ran. His eyes lit up, and he nodded, saying, "A two-star Dou Zun, and this aura... it seems you've already refined the Heavenly Spirit Dragon Blood Pill, making up for your lack of blood energy."

"By sheer luck."

Lin Ran said in a low voice, "The Northwest Continent is quite desolate, and I dare not expose myself recklessly. I have been quite secretive, which is why it took some time. But fortunately, the results are gratifying."

"Indeed, it's quite impressive. Your pure yang body is inherently extremely yang and strong, and the Heavenly Spirit Dragon Blood Pill has compensated for your insufficient blood energy... No, it's not just the Heavenly Spirit Dragon Blood Pill, this aura..." Scorpion's cloudy eyes scanned Lin Ran a few more times before he suddenly said, "You also consumed the Vajra Dragon Bone Pill?!"

The Vajra Dragon Bone Pill was originally a precious medicine formula kept by the Cloud Rain Sect, but the medicinal materials were hard to find. Among the three demons of the Scorpion Demon, only Scorpion had taken it when he was young.

At this moment, Scorpio clearly felt the familiar medicinal power on Lin Ran's body.

"Just lucky, just lucky." Lin Ran scratched his head and revealed a simple and honest smile.

"No, that's not right. This aura isn't just about the Vajra Dragon Bone Pill. This intense heat..." Scorpion said again, "Could it be a strange fire?!"

"Ahem, luckily, luckily. This disciple is an alchemist. While searching for a suitable magical beast, I happened to discover a strange flame and collected it."

Lin Ran coughed lightly, revealing an awkward yet polite smile. With a slight movement of his hand, a wisp of dazzling Holy Golden Meteor Heart Flame appeared, swaying quietly in Lin Ran's hand.

As soon as the Holy Gold Meteor Heart Flame was unleashed, Scorpio's eyes narrowed sharply.

"Your strange fire..."

"It was a lucky fluke."

"..."
