Battle Through the Heavens: His comprehension is extraordinary, shocking Yao Lao from the very begin

Chapter 63 The Sealed Ice Emperor Hai Bodong

The growth of Xuanhuang Flame accelerated Xiao Yan's understanding of Yin-Yang Dual Flames.

At the same time, the increased power of the Xuanhuang Flame also allowed Xiao Yan to further develop his Pure Yang Palm technique.

[You recalled the Pure Yang Palm Technique, and you had an epiphany; you grasped the essence of the Pure Yang Qi technique.]

[Pure Yang Qi: A palm technique of extreme Yang and strength, possessing a powerful restraining effect against Yin and evil energies.]

At this moment, the flying beast slowly descended.

Stepping out of the somewhat dimly lit air transport corridor, their vision brightened slightly as a unique desert-style city complex came into view. The strangely shaped houses broadened Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor's horizons.

Standing on the street, Little Fairy Doctor asked, "Where to now? Should we go straight through the Tagor Desert to Stone Desert City?"

"This is my first time coming to such a far place. Let's go and buy an accurate map of the Tagor Desert first," Xiao Yan said thoughtfully.

At this moment, Yao Lao's voice rang in Xiao Yan's mind: "Your two older brothers are really bold. They went out to train not long after they came of age, and in such a dangerous place as the border."

"Hehe, both of my older brothers are quite talented, but they lack the resources that only powerful forces can provide, such as good cultivation techniques and fighting skills." Xiao Yan smiled.

Yao Lao knew exactly what Xiao Yan was thinking: "He's trying to take advantage of this old man again."

With his status as a second-grade alchemist, Xiao Yan quickly learned about the best map shop in Mo City—"Ancient Map".

Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor turned the corner and headed towards the shop.

After walking for a while, a small shop with an antique feel came into view for Little Fairy Doctor and Xiao Yan.

"Could we have been scammed?" Little Fairy Doctor murmured. The decorations looked utterly ordinary...

At this moment, Yao Lao immediately reminded him, "It shouldn't be as simple as it seems. According to my detection, the old man who drew the diagram should actually be at the Dou Huang level. However, he seems to be suppressed by some strange power, and his current strength is only at the Dou Ling level."

Xiao Yan nodded slightly and said to Little Fairy Doctor, "Let's go in and take a look."

I wonder how many medicinal herbs Hai Bodong has collected? Rank 6 pills are not easy to obtain in the Jia Ma Empire.

Suppressing their doubts, Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor entered the shop and slowly walked to a rustic wooden shelf, on which some yellowed maps were casually piled up.

Judging from the damaged marks on the surface of these maps, they seem to be failures in the process of mapmaking.

Xiao Yan picked up a stack of failed attempts and casually flipped through them.

Little Fairy Doctor, who was standing nearby, also picked up a stack of items. With a slight tremor in her hand, a tattered picture, no bigger than a palm, suddenly fell out from the failed folds.

Xiao Yan bent down and picked up the tattered picture that looked like it would turn to dust at the slightest touch. His eyes narrowed suddenly. This was it—the tattered picture containing the soul power of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint.

"This thing seems to be something unusual?" Xiao Yan asked Yao Lao.

The old apothecary said in a deep voice, "Your soul perception is not bad; this map is indeed extraordinary. However, it is only a fragment, and its purpose is unclear."

Xiao Yan smiled slightly: Of course, you can't tell right now. The fragment of the map containing important information is still in the Monster Mountain Range.

"This incomplete map is not for sale." Hai Bodong slowly raised his head, his gaze sweeping over the tattered map in Xiao Yan's hand. Although his tone was calm, it carried an unquestionable air.

The old apothecary chuckled with a hint of schadenfreude, "So tense, looks like it's something good. We can't let it go."

Needless to say, they would never act unless it was a matter of life and death.

Xiao Yan looked at Hai Bodong: "Sir, I believe there is no deal in this world that cannot be made."

"But the person who can offer me something that moves my heart is definitely not you." Hai Bodong said calmly, his white hair moving without wind, and his icy battle aura swirling around him. "If you intend to take it away by force, then don't blame me for bullying the weak."

Xiao Yan took the puppet bird off his shoulder and placed it in the hands of the utterly astonished Little Fairy Doctor: "Hold this safe, it can protect you."

Hai Bodong glanced disdainfully at the puppet bird and sneered, "Although that damned thing has greatly diminished my strength, it won't be difficult to deal with a brat like you."

"Then let's give it a try." Xiao Yan put the incomplete map into his storage ring, his eyes slightly narrowed.

Hai Bodong suddenly burst forth, almost like a bolt of lightning, and approached Xiao Yan.

Seeing Hai Bodong suddenly charging towards him, Xiao Yan drew circles with his hands and shouted, "Reincarnation Tribulation!"

The terrifying power exceeded Xiao Yan's limit, forcing him to retreat step by step until he crashed into the wooden frame.

The vast difference between the two was evident as Xiao Yan stood in a "two-character clamp sheep horse" stance, and the cycle of reincarnation instantly turned and the void vanished.

In his astonishment, Hai Bodong's immense power vanished without a trace, like a mud ox sinking into the sea. This was precisely the moment for Xiao Yan to launch a counterattack: "Wolf King Seal!"

As the palm, accompanied by a chilling wind, hurtled towards him, Hai Bodong's withered hands quickly formed a hand seal, and he softly uttered, "Ice Condensation Mirror!"

As Hai Bodong finished his hand seal, the white mist in front of him suddenly churned rapidly, and a moment later, a transparent ice mirror about half a meter long and wide abruptly condensed in front of him.

Bang!

With a powerful slap, Xiao Yan slammed his palm down onto the ice mirror, his expression changing drastically.

A powerful rebound force shot out strangely, directly shaking his palm away.

Xiao Yan did not retreat. Instead, he stepped forward with a lunge, his elbow thrusting forward, and a surge of powerful battle qi erupted forth: "Eight Extremes Sky-Piercing Strike!"

A blazing burst of energy, like a dragon emerging from the sea, struck Hai Bodong's chest with the force of thunder.

This force was powerful and intense, like a meteor streaking across the night sky, instantly striking Hai Bodong, whose straight figure was suddenly sent flying out of the shop.

"Did you win?" Little Fairy Doctor asked in surprise, as her opponent didn't seem to be very strong.

"No, the opponent is a Dou Ling level expert, whose strength is extraordinary." Xiao Yan waved his hand and looked towards the door with a solemn expression.

Upon hearing these four words, Little Fairy Doctor fell silent.

The strongest attacker she had ever seen was a second-tier magical beast from the Magical Beast Mountain Range, which was only comparable to a Battle Master among human experts, yet it was enough to give the entire herb-gathering team a huge headache. This Battle Spirit expert was two levels stronger than a Battle Master.

"Good heavens, he unleashed several high-level fighting techniques right away!" Hai Bodong slowly walked back to the shop, looking at Xiao Yan in astonishment.

If he didn't possess the strength and extraordinary physical attributes of a Dou Ling, a Da Dou Shi might have already suffered severe injuries from this combo.
