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

Chapter 97 Izumo Empire

The following morning, Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor rode on a blue eagle and flew towards the Chuyun Empire.

Looking at the azure sky, Xiao Yan twirled his storage ring with his fingers, a slight smile playing on his lips.

I never expected to receive a fourth-tier wind-attribute magical beast core and a second-tier wind-attribute magical beast core before leaving. My luck is really good.

Little Red watched the two figures disappear into the distance and howled to the sky within the valley.

"Stop howling and focus on your cultivation here." Yao Lao didn't follow Xiao Yan but instead took care of the aftermath.

The spatial blockade was activated, and as space itself began to distort, it enveloped the valley.

After protecting the valley, Yao Lao transformed into a streak of light and chased after Xiao Yan.

Little Fairy Doctor smoothed her wind-blown hair with her delicate hand, tilted her head, and asked, "We were cultivating peacefully in this little valley, why do we have to go to the Izumo Empire?"

"Your constitution requires a lot of potent poisons. Where else can you find more than the Chuyun Empire?" Xiao Yan smiled faintly.

Not only does Little Fairy Doctor's Calamity Poison Body require highly toxic substances, but her Netherworld Poison Fire also requires highly toxic substances to be cultivated quickly.

Looking down at the forest rushing past, Little Fairy Doctor asked, "How long are we going to stay in the Izumo Empire?"

"Our trip to the Izumo Empire isn't just for simple cultivation," Xiao Yan said vaguely.

Xiao Yan looked up into the distance, standing with his hands behind his back. He needed too many cultivation resources, and the Jia Ma Empire alone simply couldn't supply them.

The territory of the Izumo Empire was no smaller than that of the Gama Empire, and in some respects, it was even larger.

However, compared to the Gama Empire, the Izumo Empire was undoubtedly much more chaotic.

Poison master, a profession almost universally despised in the Gama Empire, has flourished exceptionally in the Izumo Empire.

In a city, one can almost always see people dressed in the robes of poison masters. In the Izumo Empire, there is a scene rarely seen in the Gama Empire: the use of poison.

In every city of this empire, there are shops that specialize in selling poisons; anything related to poison can be purchased in these places.

Of course, the more toxic something is, the more expensive it is.

Even with Xiao Lan as their flying mount, it still took nearly three or four days to finally reach the border city of the Izumo Empire, the City of Rotten Bones, after a long journey.

Xiao Lan was allowed to rest temporarily in a dense forest outside the city, while Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor entered the city to scout ahead.

Upon arriving in the Yun Empire, Xiao Yan was prepared to help Little Fairy Doctor establish the Poison Sect.

Actually, this isn't really helping Little Fairy Doctor; her sect doesn't even belong to him.

The city of Rotten Bones reeked of poison. As soon as the two entered the city, Xiao Yan gained a clearer understanding of the chaos in the Chuyun Empire.

Watching the brawlers splashing poison everywhere, Little Fairy Doctor whispered, "They're doing this in the city, isn't anyone going to do anything about it?"

"You're asking me? How would I know? This is my first time here too. Let's mind our own business." Xiao Yan glanced at it and then stopped looking, searching for shops selling medicinal herbs and magic cores in the city.

In the past few days, he had thoroughly reviewed the art of alchemy and poison making.

After walking for a while, Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor slowly entered the shop. Inside, they saw an old man with the shrewdness typical of merchants.

Seeing that the old man bore a striking resemblance to Hai Bodong from back then, Little Fairy Doctor couldn't help but whisper in Xiao Yan's ear, "Could this person also be some kind of reclusive powerhouse?"

"You're really dreaming. There aren't that many hidden experts." Xiao Yan glanced at the old man. "He's just a Dou Shi. At his age, his cultivation talent is almost negligible."

"Young man, what would you like to order?" Seeing Xiao Yan whispering with Little Fairy Doctor, the old man quickly stood up and asked with a smile.

These two people were dressed in fine clothes and whispered to each other as soon as they entered the door. It was obvious that they had run away from home without telling their families. These young people were so naive and inexperienced that they were practically the epitome of easy prey.

Xiao Yan glanced around the shop and said calmly, "Bring out all the medicinal herbs and magic cores here."

"Young man, what's this?" The old man was startled.

Xiao Yan casually replied, "I'll take them all."

"Although the shop is small, all these items add up to two or three hundred thousand gold coins." The old man had initially intended to take a bite out of a fat sheep, but he never expected that this was actually a huge fat pig!

This time, it's not just about having a full meal; we might end up stuffed.

Xiao Yan touched his storage ring and took out a purple-gold card. Five different colored ripples flashed on the card.

The old man looked closely and couldn't help but feel a little horrified.

In the Dou Qi Continent, one needs at least the strength of a Dou Ling to be eligible to apply for a Five-Patterned Purple Gold Card, which represents status. Of course, some powerful forces also possess this qualification.

The old man would never believe that the handsome young man in black robes was a Dou Ling expert; it would be good enough if he could even be a Dou Zhe.

However, the old man had no intention of stealing from someone else, and now that he saw that the person came from a distinguished background, he naturally dared not do so.

"Young master, please wait a moment." The old man smiled and began to retrieve the items.

Xiao Yan walked to the door and waited quietly.

Glancing at the busy old man, Little Fairy Doctor whispered, "They say you shouldn't flaunt your wealth. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to buy things like this right after arriving in this unfamiliar place?"

Xiao Yan crossed his arms in front of him: "Don't worry, if I dare to buy them, I have the strength to protect them. These medicinal herbs are quite toxic, making them excellent materials for poison. There are also some herbs that are not commonly found in the Jia Ma Empire, so let's buy them all at once."

He didn't want to carefully select individuals one by one to establish the Poison Sect; if he wanted to quickly build a force, he had to make a big show of it.

With Yao Lao, a powerful figure with the power of Dou Zun, behind him, Xiao Yan has nothing to fear in the Yun Empire.

Moreover, the second-tier wind attribute magic core of the Wind Leopard Beast and the fourth-tier wind attribute magic core of the Twin-Winged Demon Wolf are extremely compatible with Xiao Lan's attributes, making them perfect for combining with medicinal herbs to refine two batches of pills, helping her accelerate her growth.

Xiao Yan hasn't yet figured out a suitable cultivation method for Xiao Lan, but that doesn't mean he hasn't made breakthroughs in other areas.

As a mount, Xiao Lan will be contributing more to the Izumo Empire in the future, but her first-tier strength is really a bit low.

Seeing Xiao Yan's confident demeanor, Little Fairy Doctor felt a sense of relief.

After waiting for about half an hour, the old man finally brought out all the items from the shop.

After paying the gold coins, Xiao Yan put the items into his storage ring, asked the old man where he could rent a small courtyard, and then walked with Little Fairy Doctor to the place the old man had mentioned.
