Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 84 Hehehe

The Gama Empire, Daling City.

Daling City is one of the large cities in the Gama Empire, located in the northwestern province of the Gama Empire.

Although its scale cannot compare with those large cities like the capital, it is still much larger than a small city like Wutan.

Moreover, due to its proximity to the Monster Mountain Range, which spans almost half of the empire, countless adventurers and merchant groups travel to and from the city, bringing a constant stream of people to it.

However, a few days ago, a huge explosion occurred in the Monster Mountain Range, causing panic among countless people in Daling City. Many people even moved away because of this, fearing that they would be affected.

It's no wonder they're acting like wounded birds; the recent uproar in Shimo City was too intense, resulting in the deaths of thousands. Although no such powerful figure has appeared in Daling City yet, they're still afraid of being caught in the crossfire.

"Phew, you're really terrifying. Who would have thought that such a terrifying explosion was caused by a mere Battle Master like you?"

At a restaurant in Daling City, Hai Bodong stared at Xiao Yan in amazement. It seemed that the huge explosion outside Daling City a few days ago was caused by this little guy.

Xiao Yan shook his head with a wry smile, and with a slight movement of his palm, a ball of blood-red flame floated out from his palm.

The flames flickered in Xiao Yan's palm, and faintly, there were roars of beast spirits, resembling tigers and dragons, extremely violent.

This is the strange fire that Xiao Yan obtained from the Monster Mountain Range.

The Myriad Beast Spirit Flame, ranked twenty-second on the Strange Flame Ranking!

Feeling the intense heat of the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, Xiao Yan raised his left hand again, and the pure white flames slowly rose up.

The Bone Spirit Cold Flame, ranked eleventh on the Strange Flame Ranking!

However, compared to the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, this wisp of Bone Spirit Cold Fire appears much weaker.

This is due to the presence of the Zi fire.

Looking at the two flames, each a different color, Hai Bodong was filled with admiration and wonder.

"You little guy are truly terrifying. At such a young age, you're only at the Dou Shi level, yet you've already mastered two different kinds of strange fire. If those alchemists who have been searching for strange fire for decades to find out about this, they'd probably be green with envy."

"It was just luck."

Xiao Yan shook his head with a wry smile and withdrew both strange flames. Suddenly, he recalled an ancient saying he had heard before his transmigration.

What seems like a misfortune may actually be a blessing in disguise!

He lost the chance to obtain the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, and even caused Yao Lao to be seriously injured and fall into a coma, but in return, he obtained the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame.

When God closes a window, He will surely open a door for you; perhaps that's just fate.

"Old Hai, have you had any harvest over there?"

Xiao Yan shook his head, clearing his mind of the jumbled thoughts, and looked at Hai Bodong with a hopeful expression.

"I've already contacted my former subordinates. Although the medicine to heal the soul is hard to find, there's actually a glimmer of hope. However, I'll need to go to the capital to find out the specifics."

Hai Bodong laughed and said, "Don't worry, although my old subordinates are of average strength and there are no Dou Huang level beings among them, their network of connections is huge and they won't let you down."

"The capital city."

Xiao Yan took a deep breath, his expression unreadable.

If you calculate the time, there are less than two months left until the original three-year agreement.

Yunlan Sect is close to the capital, so going to the capital first is a good idea. If he can get his hands on the medicinal herbs that repair soul energy and awaken the old apothecary, he will have more confidence.

"In that case, let's get up immediately!"

Xiao Yan was not one to procrastinate; now that he had made a plan, he naturally had to take action.

Instead of flying directly to the capital, the two boarded a flying magical beast.

On one hand, Xiao Yan is only a Dou Shi. Although he has flying Dou Techniques, his Dou Qi consumption is huge, and he can't keep up with Hai Bodong's speed.

Secondly, Xiao Yan also wanted to search for medicinal herbs for repairing the soul in the cities along the way, as well as the herbs for the Spirit Restoration Purple Pill that Hai Bodong needed.

It is worth mentioning that Xiao Yan's alchemist level has been successfully registered at the Alchemist Guild in Daling City as Grade Two.

With the addition of the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire and the alchemy manual left behind by the Old Man of Medicine, Xiao Yan is now able to refine third-grade pills. He has even tried to refine fourth-grade pills, but unfortunately, he has not succeeded in any of them.

The two were not traveling fast, and they stopped in cities along the way to search for medicinal herbs. By the time they arrived in the capital, more than half a month had passed, and Hai Bodong's men finally sent back news.

The medicinal herbs that can repair the soul have been found!

"Medicinal herbs that can repair the soul are indeed hard to find. Even the Mittel Auction House does not have such rare items that can restore the power of the soul."

Hai Bodong smiled at Xiao Yan: "However, if I didn't have the medicinal herbs, I wouldn't be telling you all this. My subordinates have sent word that a certain family in Jia Ma Holy City possesses a strange plant called Seven Illusion Azure Spirit Saliva. The roots and stems of this plant can be used to extract an extremely profound liquid substance, and this substance is the best medicine for restoring soul power!"

"Oh? Really?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's face instantly lit up with surprise, and he hurriedly asked, "Which family is it?"

"The Nalan family."

"The Nalan family is one of the three major families in the capital. Several members of the family hold important positions in the empire's military. They are exceptional in terms of both background and status."

Hai Bodong spoke with a smile, but when he saw Xiao Yan's expression suddenly turn very ugly, he thought it was because he heard the name of the Nalan family and was a bit difficult to deal with. He paused and said with a hint of arrogance in his tone.

"But you don't need to worry. With my status, if I ask Nalan Jie for a Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva, he will give me face."

"..."

Xiao Yan remained silent. Hai Bodong keenly noticed that Xiao Yan's hand, which was holding the teacup, had turned slightly blue from the force he was exerting, and he immediately understood something.

"Do you have some kind of grudge against the Nalan family?"

"Um."

"Wait, could it be that the three-year agreement you mentioned, which is this trip to the Yunlan Sect, is related to the Nalan family?" Glancing at Xiao Yan's slightly unpleasant expression, Hai Bodong was taken aback, then exclaimed in astonishment, "Yun Yun's disciple, the young sect master of the Yunlan Sect, Na Ran Yanran?!"

This time, Xiao Yan did not answer. However, the knuckles of his fingers, which were tightly gripping the teacup, began to turn from blue to white, and a faint cold glint appeared in his eyes!

Seeing Xiao Yan's expression, Hai Bodong, having already figured out some of the answers, stopped asking further questions.

He slowly shook his head. It seemed that he understood Xiao Yan's purpose in insisting on going to the Yunlan Sect. However, what still puzzled him was what that woman named Nalan Yanran had done to Xiao Yan that would make the little guy with extraordinary willpower even willing to have a hostile relationship with such a behemoth as the Yunlan Sect.

Clearly, it would be extremely foolish for the Gama Empire to be at odds with the Yunlan Sect.

Most importantly, according to the information relayed by his subordinates, that old guy Yunshan not only did not die, but also successfully broke through the Douhuang barrier and advanced to Douzong!

In recent days, he has invited many guests and held a grand banquet for several days.

To be an enemy of the Yunlan Sect, which possesses a Dou Zong level expert...

Hai Bodong shook his head, recalling Xiao Yan's teacher and the mysterious white-robed Dou Zun in his mind, and suddenly felt that Dou Zong experts were nothing special.

With a soft sigh, he said, "Alright, I won't ask any more about your affairs with Nalan Yanran and the Yunlan Sect. After you arrive in the capital, you don't need to have any contact with the Nalan family. I will do my best to get you that Seven Illusion Azure Spirit Saliva."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan raised his head and looked at Hai Bodong with gratitude.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Hai."

"It doesn't matter, it's all for my own sake."

Hai Bodong shook his head, as if he had thought of something: "By the way, there are quite a few alchemists on these flying magical beasts. Judging by the time, the Alchemist Conference is approaching. Do you want to participate?"

"An alchemist's conference?"

Xiao Yan was slightly taken aback, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"Forget it, those tournaments are useless to me. My main focus right now is to improve my strength. Ideally, I should break through to the Great Dou Master level before going to the Cloud Lan Sect, so I won't waste my time at the Alchemist Tournament."

"Alright, then you can focus on your cultivation. Leave everything else to me."

"In that case, I'll have to trouble Elder Hai."

"It's alright."

at the same time.

Yunlan Sect.

At this moment, Yunlan Sect was filled with joy and celebration. The entire sect was jubilant, and the bright red decorations, like lanterns, adorned the massive mountain.

The former sect leader's breakthrough to the Dou Huang realm and entry into the Dou Zong realm is an extremely important event for the entire Yunlan Sect. Furthermore, these past few days have been the birthday of the Yunshan Sect Leader, making this a double celebration, naturally worthy of great commemoration.

With the only Dou Zong powerhouse in the Jia Ma Empire, the Yunlan Sect will firmly establish itself as the hegemon of the Jia Ma Empire, and may even dominate the entire Jia Ma Empire, aiming its sword at the Northwest Continent!

Joyful sounds echoed throughout Yunlan Mountain from early morning, and as the sun slowly rose in the sky, the festive atmosphere grew even stronger. Countless disciples of the Yunlan Sect beamed with joy, and the sounds of firecrackers and congratulations resounded throughout Yunlan.

Countless guests arrived in an endless stream, including powerful figures from various families and forces of the Gama Empire, all coming to celebrate Yunshan's birthday.

In a main hall of the Yunlan Sect, two figures sat one above the other.

The one sitting in the main seat is naturally Yun Shan, the eighth sect master of the Yunlan Sect and the protagonist of today's joyous day for the Yunlan Sect!

Sitting in the lower seat was Gu He, the only sixth-grade alchemist in the current Jia Ma Empire, the Pill King.

"You're so thoughtful. You must be tired these past few days."

Yunshan accepted all the pills that Guhe had sent, and looking at Guhe, who was listless and weak, he spoke calmly.

"Thank you for your concern, Sect Master. I'm fine."

Guhe spoke in a low voice, his expression showing deep weariness.

These past few days, he felt guilty and spent his days in seclusion in the Pill Hall refining pills. He refined a total of three Douling Pills and one Huangji Pill, and today he handed them all over to Yunshan, which made him feel a little better.

Looking at the composed Yunshan, Guhe gritted his teeth and spoke, "Sect Leader Yunshan, when shall we go to the Tagor Desert..."

"Furukawa, today is a joyous day for me, so let's not say such things."

Yunshan spoke calmly, interrupting Guhe's words and causing Guhe's expression to freeze.

"But, but..."

Looking at Guhe's appearance, Yunshan shook his head and sighed.

"Guhe, I know you care about Yun'er. I've watched her grow up since she was a child, so how could I not worry about her?"

"The most urgent task is to stabilize those guys within the Gama Empire and prevent the news of Yunyun's capture by Medusa from leaking out. Once this matter is resolved, I will naturally go with you to the Natagor Desert to take Yun'er back from Medusa."

"...It was Furukawa who failed to consider the bigger picture."

Gu He nodded and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Yunshan: "Everything depends on Sect Master Yunshan. There are many matters to attend to today, so I will not disturb Yunshan Sect any further..."

"Old Sect Master! Old Sect Master! Good news! Great news!"

Before Guhe could speak, Yunling burst into the main hall with a joyful expression. His old face was beaming like a chrysanthemum, causing Guhe and Yunshan to frown.

"Yunling, you're not a child anymore, how can you be so rude?" Yunshan said with displeasure.

"It's the Sect Master! The Sect Master is back!"

Yun Leng hurriedly apologized and knelt down, but he still couldn't help laughing loudly.

Upon hearing this, both Yunshan and Guhe were slightly taken aback. Guhe even stood up abruptly, his gaze fixed on Yunling: "Is what Elder Yunling said true?!"

"Of course it's true, the sect leader is right outside the hall!"

Yun Leng grinned.

The Yunlan Sect was severely weakened by Yun Yun's incident. Even though Yun Shan broke through to the Dou Zong level, he could not make up for the loss caused by Yun Yun.

After all, although Yunshan was a Dou Zong, he was already old and frail, while Yunyun was a rising star.

To prevent news of Yun Yun's disappearance from leaking out and causing unnecessary damage to the Yunlan Sect, Yun Shan held a grand banquet and announced his breakthrough to the Dou Zong realm, hoping to minimize the impact of Yun Yun's disappearance.

And now, Yun Yun has actually returned!

This, coupled with Yunshan's breakthrough, is truly a double celebration!

The main hall doors opened, and a stunningly beautiful woman in white suddenly stepped into the hall.

A ray of sunlight spread in from the outside, enveloping the woman in white like a light golden veil, making her appear like a celestial fairy, exuding an indescribable nobility and etherealness.

Who else could it be but Yun Yun?

"Master Furukawa, teacher."

Yun Yun stepped into the hall, nodded slightly to Gu He who was staring intently at her, and then turned her attention to Yun Shan, who was sitting in the main seat.

Sensing the powerful aura emanating from Yun Shan, Yun Yun couldn't help but show a hint of joy on her noble and beautiful face.

"Teacher, you've made a breakthrough?!"

"Yes, after years of seclusion, it was all worth it."

Looking at that noble and serene face, Yunshan smiled, revealing his true feelings, as if he had breathed a sigh of relief and a huge weight had been lifted from his heart.

"How did things go with you? I heard what Gu He said a few days ago and was extremely worried, so I was forced to come out of seclusion. I wanted to go find you directly, but considering the Yunlan Sect, I could only use the occasion of your birthday celebration to attract the attention of the powerful figures from the Jia Ma Empire. Your safe return today has truly relieved me."

"Yun'er understands."

Yun Yun nodded slightly. As the sect leader of Yunlan Sect, she naturally understood Yun Shan's meaning.

If she were in her shoes, she would have done the same.

After all, as the leader of a sect, there are far too many things to consider, and it's not something that can be decided by one's own emotions alone.

"Queen Medusa has already broken through to the Dou Zong level, and I was no match for her in battle. Fortunately, she seemed to have just broken through, and her internal power was unstable. I used the power of a secret technique to escape from her."

Yun Yun explained that all information about Lin Ran was naturally concealed.

"These past few days, I've been recuperating and trying to alleviate the side effects of the secret technique. I only rushed back because I heard that you, Master, had already emerged from seclusion and were hosting a grand banquet for your guests."

"I see."

Although Yunshan had doubts, it was almost impossible for a Dou Huang to escape from a Dou Zong.

But after hearing Yun Yun's explanation, he suddenly understood.

He himself had failed at countless costs in his attempt to break through to the Dou Zong realm. If it weren't for the help of the Soul Palace, he might have already died of old age at the Dou Huang realm, let alone broken through to the Dou Zong realm!

Queen Medusa, like him, had been stuck at the peak of Dou Huang for a long time. Under the threat of Gu Heyun and others, she forcibly broke through to Dou Zong.

Although successful, there are bound to be shortcomings, and the strength is not yet stable.

It's not surprising that Yun Yun escaped using a secret technique.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

Yunshan beamed, "Today truly seems to be a day of great joy for my Yunlan Sect! Not only is it my birthday, but Yun'er has also returned safely. It seems the heavens are decreing a great prosperity for Yunlan!"

"Yes, yes, with the Sect Master and the former Sect Master here, who in the Jia Ma Empire can rival our Yunlan Sect?!"

Yun Leng's old face beamed with a smile as bright as a chrysanthemum as he repeatedly congratulated Yun Shan and Yun Yun, almost saying things like "Congratulations, Sect Master! Congratulations, Old Sect Master! May Yun Lan Sect last forever and unify Jia Ma!"

Yunshan laughed heartily and waved his hand.

"Very well, Yun'er, there have been quite a few rumors circulating within the Jia Ma Empire while you were away. How about you take over the duties of entertaining those guests?"

"I'll listen to the teacher."

Yun Yun bowed slightly, a smile on her face, and walked out of the main hall with Yun Leng.

Gu He looked at Yun Shan expectantly, and Yun Shan waved his hand helplessly: "You should go with Yun'er too."

"Thank you very much, Sect Master Yunshan!"

Gu He immediately beamed and followed Yun Yun.

He tried to strike up a conversation, but Yunyun kept him at arm's length, remaining emotionally indifferent.

Gu He simply attributed his dissatisfaction to Yun Yun's recklessness that day, which had led to her falling into a trap.

After all, Yun Yun had always treated him with the same indifference in the past, though not as coldly as she was now. But it was only natural for her to be a little angry after she had put Sect Master Yun in danger.

Little did he know that at this moment, Yun Yun had completely given herself to Lin Ran, both physically and mentally!

Watching the three leave the main hall, Yunshan exhaled a deep breath, his face flushed.

"It's just a female disciple returning home, is it really necessary to be so happy?"

Suddenly, the hall doors slammed shut, and accompanied by a sinister laugh, a strange black mist drifted out from the shadows of the hall and landed in front of Yunshan.

"What do you know!"

Yun Shan snorted coldly. To him, Yun Yun was not just a disciple, but almost like a daughter, and the one who would lead Yunlan Sect to prosperity in the future.

He was naturally happy that Yunyun was back.

"Whatever makes you happy, but I must remind you, Yunshan, your disciple has a powerful aura and vigorous blood, and his strength has increased rather than decreased compared to before. This doesn't seem like the result of using a secret technique."

Black mist rose, accompanied by a sinister laugh: "To escape from Queen Medusa's clutches and to have improved your own strength... Hehehe, Yunshan, your disciple is probably hiding something from you."

Upon hearing this, Yun Shan's expression changed slightly, his eyes revealing an inscrutable look, but he still coldly snorted, "You don't need to concern yourself with this matter; I'll handle it myself. But has your Soul Hall managed to find out the information about the powerful figure who appeared in the Jia Ma Empire?"

"What, Yunshan? My Soul Palace can take you from the brink of death to your current Dou Zong strength, but it can also take everything away from you again!"

"Everything you have now is a gift from the Soul Palace. If the Soul Palace is ever unhappy and takes it all back, then... hehehe..." As if sensing Yunshan's slight mood, a sinister laugh suddenly came from the black mist.

Yunshan's eye twitched, then he chuckled dryly, "Protector Wu, you're right. I was the one who suffered a defeat this time. The Soul Palace has done me a great favor, and I would never forget it."

"Sect Master Yunshan is indeed sensible. It's no wonder that my Soul Hall has invested so much in cultivating you. My Soul Hall will handle the news about that powerful figure. You just need to know that there's nothing on this continent that my Soul Hall wouldn't dare to do!"

Upon hearing this, a sinister laugh rang out from within the black mist: "You should mind your own business and manage your Yunlan Sect. Don't let your disciple rebel against the Heavenly Gang."

"Thank you for the reminder, Protector Wu. I understand," Yunshan said with a dry laugh.

"Hehehe..."

The black mist rippled, then gradually became illusory, and after a moment, it completely dissipated within the hall.

As he watched the black mist dissipate, Yunshan Noodles shuddered. A fierce glint flashed in his lowered eyes, which quickly disappeared, but at the same time, a hint of doubt remained.

What Protector Wu said about Yun Yun's situation is true. Could it be that Yun Yun is really hiding something from him?

It seems I need to find some time to ask them about this.

……

Three days later, at the Ghost-Suppressing Pass.

As a border military fortress of the Gama Empire to deter foreign powers, the Zhen Gui Pass is heavily fortified, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as an inescapable net.

The troops stationed here have all been tempered by real blood and fire on the battlefield. They may not be high in fighting spirit, but those who have seen blood and fought to the death on the battlefield are not comparable to ordinary fighters.

Accompanied by a clear cry of a bird or beast, a fourth-tier Azure Serpent Falcon pierced through the clouds.

A calm figure stood atop the falcon, looking down at the military fortress below.

The entire Zhen Gui Pass stands like a colossal, ancient beast on the border of the empire. Its towering walls stretch as far as the eye can see, like a continuous mountain range.

Dense battle qi fluctuations permeated the fortress. In addition, military fortresses of this caliber are equipped with high-altitude battle qi detection arrays to prevent the empire's Battle Kings and above from entering the country.

In addition to detecting formations, these military fortresses are also equipped with special crossbows such as the Qi-breaking triple crossbow, the divine fire bow, and the soul-piercing arrow. If surrounded by these special weapons, even a Dou Wang or Dou Huang powerhouse would have a terrible headache!

"Young Master, we..."

Looking down at the Ghost-Suppressing Pass, Little Fairy Doctor was filled with excitement.

"The usual rules."

Lin Ran glanced helplessly at Little Fairy Doctor: "Qing Lin, put the magical beast away."

"Yes, young master."

Qinglin nodded obediently, her three-flowered emerald eyes shimmering with green light. The emerald python falcon beneath the four of them instantly transformed into a beam of green light, merging into Qinglin's eyes and disappearing.

The Azure Serpent's Three-Flower Pupil can contain controlled magical beasts or people, but because Azure Scale is still immature, it can only contain low-level snake-type magical beasts.

This Azure Python Falcon possesses the bloodline of a typical snake-like magical beast, which meets the requirements for the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil. After a chance encounter on the road, it became Qinglin's puppet and the group's mount.

The four walked toward the majestic fortress. The tall city walls were heavily guarded on both sides, but at that moment a caravan was also passing through the fortress.

Normally, a caravan would need a special pass to pass through a fortress; otherwise, it would be impossible to pass.

But in Lin Ran's eyes, the caravan leader did not show any warrant. Instead, he bowed and scraped to the city gate guard and then handed him a storage ring. The city gate guard then waved and let the caravan pass.

This scene made Lin Ran chuckle to himself.

It's true that all crows are black; even a border military fortress is being run like this. It's not an exaggeration to describe this great empire as corrupt.

"Let's go."

Lin Ran took a step forward, leading Little Fairy Doctor, Qing Lin, and the three in green towards the city gate.

Lin Ran and his group made no attempt to conceal themselves, and their appearance immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

The reason is simple: a young man with three beautiful women is an extremely eye-catching combination wherever he goes, let alone in a place like Zhen Gui Guan.

Especially among the guards, a fully armed young man noticed Lin Ran and his group, and his burning gaze suddenly froze on the delicate bodies of Qing Lin and Little Fairy Doctor.

Compared to mature women like Green Robe, he prefers tender newcomers like Azure Scale and Little Fairy Doctor!

Moreover, these two women far surpassed his previous playthings in both appearance and temperament. The charming appearance of the girl next door made the lewd desire in his heart grow wildly like weeds.

"Halt!"

A long spear appeared in the man's hand and landed directly on Lin Ran's neck: "This is a heavily fortified location. Do you have a warrant?!"

The woman in green casually tossed out a token. As someone from the Heavenly Serpent Palace who had been infiltrating the Jia Ma Empire for many years, she naturally had all the necessary tools at her disposal.

This token wasn't of a high level; it was a token she obtained when she infiltrated the Mo family. However, it was enough to allow her to enter and exit the Ghost Town Pass without any problems.

"Young Master Mengli, there's nothing wrong with this bronze token."

A guard took the token, examined it carefully, and then whispered something in Mengli's ear.

"Copper Token One".

Meng Li narrowed his eyes, his lewd gaze sweeping over Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin. He unleashed his fighting spirit in his palm, twisting the token in his hand, and pointed his spear directly at Lin Ran.

"How dare you forge customs clearance documents! Guards, seize them!"

"..."

Lin Ran's lips twitched slightly. Although he had expected it, it was still quite speechless when such a melodramatic plot happened to him.

So be it.

After several days of fierce fighting with Medusa, Lin Ran did not linger in the gentle embrace of the goddess. He led Qinglin Xiaoyixian and the others, leaving the Tagor Desert and heading towards the Black Corner Region.

This time, however, Lin Ran did not choose to go directly. Instead, he transformed into the "Judge of Heaven" in every city he passed through.

As long as they were powerful and influential figures who preyed on the common people, Lin Ran would have Little Fairy Doctor use her Poison Battle Qi to completely poison them, thus honing Little Fairy Doctor's skills in using Poison Battle Qi.

Originally, they were thinking of being merciful to this last fortress, so as to prevent enemy forces from other empires from advancing unimpeded and giving the Gama Empire a chance to respond.

But now it seems...

forget it.

With a slight shift in her gaze, Little Fairy Doctor, who had been itching to act, immediately understood. She waved her slender hand, and a purplish-black poisonous aura roared forth.

Several guards who came to attack were caught off guard and directly contaminated by the poisonous fighting energy. Their bodies immediately began to fester. In the horrified eyes of countless guards, they only had time to let out a wail before turning into a pool of pus and blood and dying.

"Poisonous fighting spirit! This is poisonous fighting spirit! Are you a poison master?!"

"So you're the group of powerful Izumo warriors who poisoned Gama?!"

Meng Li was shocked and looked at Little Fairy Doctor with a terrified expression.

The news of the poison master from the Cloud Poison Master poisoning Gama has already spread throughout the surrounding cities. The Ghost Town Pass, located on the border, has also heard a little about it, but has not paid much attention to it.

Who knew they would actually run into them today!

Meng Li was terrified. He unleashed his fighting spirit and ran quickly toward the Zhen Gui Pass. The guards who couldn't escape were soon enveloped by the poisonous gas. They soon felt dizzy and collapsed to the ground, falling into a coma.

Lin Ran took a step forward, and Little Fairy Doctor was surrounded by a chilling aura of poison. With a light wave of her slender jade hand, the fierce Ice Venerable Force roared out and covered the city gate of the Ghost Town Pass.

The ice froze, and with a cracking sound, the city gate shattered into ice crystals, allowing Lin Ran and his group to drive straight in without any obstruction.

The poisonous gas spread, and no one survived its passage. However, these people did not die immediately; they simply fell unconscious.

"You poison masters, how dare you act so presumptuously in Zhen Gui Pass! You're courting death!"

However, just as Lin Ran and the others were walking unimpeded into the city of Zhen Gui Guan, a sharp shout suddenly rang out.

Immediately, a shadow, as large as an iron tower, descended from the sky and crashed heavily to the ground, causing the earth to shake violently.

The newcomer's gaze swept around before settling on Little Fairy Doctor, and he sneered, "Very well, very well. I never expected that the Poison Master Chuyun, who poisoned Jia Ma, would dare to trespass into my Ghost-Suppressing Pass. Where are the Silver Armor Army?!"

Countless elite warriors suddenly emerged from the surrounding city walls, gripping their weapons tightly.

The next moment, a hail of arrows came hurtling in.

Little Fairy Doctor's expression changed slightly, her beautiful eyes became serious, and she formed a hand seal. The Ice Venerable Force surged and roared, forming ice walls that blocked the rain of arrows.

"A desperate resistance!"

The towering man stared intently at Lin Ran and his group, let out a cold snort, and unleashed a surge of powerful battle qi from within his body. His storage ring shimmered, and a giant axe fell into his palm.

In the blink of an eye, the burly man, whose entire body was covered in a layer of battle aura armor, grabbed a giant axe and charged towards Little Fairy Doctor's ice crystal shield with a powerful and murderous aura. He slashed down straight down as if splitting the earth!

The icy shield formed by the Ice Venerable Force couldn't withstand this person's axe and was shattered. Under the backlash of the battle qi, Little Fairy Doctor retreated repeatedly, her pretty face turning pale.

"Peak of the Battle Spirit Realm?!"

"Well done, Mu Tie!"

The laughter grew louder as it approached. Meng Li, who had fled earlier, had returned, wielding a blood-red broadsword, and was about to slash at Little Fairy Doctor's face.

"Little Fairy Doctor!"

Qinglin let out a cry of surprise. Her eyes shimmered with green light, and several snake shadows appeared and disappeared within them. But before she could make a move, Little Fairy Doctor snorted coldly, formed a hand seal, and suddenly slapped her hands forward.

With a slight curve in his palm, a purplish-black palm print of battle qi roared out.

"boom!!"

Meng Li, who wanted to steal the credit, was struck on the spot by this palm print of fighting spirit. His chest felt as if it had been hit by a huge boulder, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His body flew backward and finally crashed heavily onto the city wall, falling down helplessly.

His battle aura armor was completely shattered, and a purplish-black palm print appeared on his chest. He was on the verge of death.

"What?!"

Mu Tie was greatly alarmed.

Although he didn't get along with Meng Li, this guy was a genuine Dou Ling expert, yet he was defeated by that Chu Yun Poison Master with a single palm strike.

No wonder these guys were able to wreak havoc in Gama...

Mu Tie slowly exhaled, his expression solemn, his giant axe gripping tightly in his hand.

Little Fairy Doctor let out a soft hum, her fighting spirit surging within her body, and poisonous gas spreading everywhere.

Peak Dou Ling level is a good target for practice!

"Um?!"

Lin Ran, who was watching the battle, suddenly frowned and looked up at the sky.

Suddenly, a strange black mist appeared in the originally clear sky. This black mist swirled in the sky as if it had a spirit, like a ghost.

"Green Robe, take Little Fairy Doctor and Azure Scale out of the Ghost Town Pass first."

Lin Ran spoke calmly, which surprised everyone present.

Following Lin Ran's gaze, the woman in green also noticed the black mist in the sky. She subconsciously tried to understand it, but suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

"You bunch of rats from Izumo, where do you think you're going!" Mu Tie roared, gripping his giant axe tightly as he swung it down at Little Fairy Doctor.

"boom!!"

A majestic and terrifying aura erupted from the green-clad figure, sending the incoming wooden and iron objects flying and crashing heavily into the city wall.

With battle qi wings condensing on her back, amidst the astonishment of countless people at the Ghost Suppression Pass and the stunned gaze of Mu Tie, the woman in green, carrying Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin, flew straight out of the Ghost Suppression Pass.

"A Dou Huang level expert?"

"Hehehe, I never expected that this tiny Gama Empire would actually have a powerful figure like you."

Amidst the swirling black mist, eerie laughter echoed, reverberating across the sky like the cawing of crows.

The black mist contracted and rippled, slowly condensing into a figure shrouded in deep black smoke under the gaze of countless people. Faintly visible were a pair of slightly crimson eyes that emerged from the deep darkness, staring directly at Lin Ran below.

Mu Tiejin, standing to the side, was almost dumbfounded.

"Ling, traversing the void in mid-air, a Dou Zong level expert?!"
