Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 40 Xiao Jue, the King of Timing

Xiao Jue looked at a grass with alternating white and red leaves in the center of the flower bed.

The grass has white and red leaves. The white stems are covered with ice-crystal-like objects, while the fiery red crown looks like a ball of flame burning. These two completely opposite colors and properties grow strangely on one plant, which is truly amazing.

A light mist swirled around the plant, giving it a somewhat ethereal feel, as if it were floating among clouds.

Xiao Jue handed Little Fairy Doctor some jade bottles and a small shovel, saying, "Give me these Ice Spirit Flame Grass herbs, and you can have the rest."

Little Fairy Doctor couldn't help but ask, "Senior, are you an alchemist?"

"Mm." Xiao Jue nodded.

Little Fairy Doctor took the things from Xiao Jue's hands, walked forward, squatted down, and began to carefully dig out the rare herbs from the flower bed and put them into a warm jade bottle.

After Little Fairy Doctor had collected all the medicinal herbs, she handed the jade bottle containing the Ice Spirit Flame Grass to Xiao Jue, happily put away the remaining jade bottles, and placed them in the storage ring that Xiao Jue had given her.

"Let's go."

Xiao Jue and Little Fairy Doctor arrived at the cave entrance, picked her up again, and flew up directly.

Little Fairy Doctor hugged Xiao Jue tightly, feeling a sense of relief. If she could have a Dou Wang powerhouse protecting her, she would definitely be safe in the future, right?

"Found it."

Accompanied by Little Fairy Doctor, Xiao Jue descended from the sky in a certain place, startling Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan asked in surprise, "What's going on here?"

He looked at the little fairy doctor being held in Xiao Jue's arms, his eyes filled with amusement as he looked at Xiao Jue. Ya Fei from the Mittel Auction House, Xiao Yu and Xiao Mei from the Xiao family all seemed to have connections with Xiao Jue, and now he had saved a woman in the Monster Mountain Range.

Xiao Jue released Little Fairy Doctor and said, "Her name is Little Fairy Doctor. She possesses the Calamity Poison Body and I just rescued her."

He then introduced Xiao Yixian to her, saying, "This is my cousin, Xiao Yan."

The two nodded slightly in acknowledgment, and Xiao Jue continued, "There's a valley not far ahead with abundant energy. Let's head straight there."

Xiao Yan smiled wryly, "Can't you let me rest for a while? This thing is still very heavy for me to carry."

"That's fine, but I estimate that by the time the three-year agreement is up, you'll be kneeling and begging for mercy, licking the soles of Nalan Yanran's shoes."

Xiao Yan's face darkened, and he silently got up and walked in the direction Xiao Jue pointed.

"If you can carry the Xuanzhong Ruler and walk there without stopping, I'll give you the flying combat technique I just acquired."

Xiao Yan asked in surprise, "Flying combat technique? What's that?"

Xiao Jue took out a black scroll, shook it, and said, "Advanced Xuan-rank flight combat skill: Eagle Wings."

Xiao Jue unrolled the black scroll, revealing two chillingly black eagle wings. Because the wings were drawn on the scroll, they were not very large, but they faintly emitted some heat. Judging from their strange appearance, they were clearly not a simple painting.

The eagle's wings were jet black, with faint purple cloud patterns visible through them. Upon closer inspection, the wings appeared to be made of black steel, possessing a unique metallic texture.

The feathers on the eagle's wings emitted a faint warmth. As a gentle breeze blew by, the feathers on the eagle's wings fluttered as if they were real wings, which was quite magical.

Xiao Jue read the words on the scroll: "Black Flame Purple Cloud Eagle, a fifth-tier flying magical beast. It is said to possess the rare bloodline of an ancient phoenix. Its flight speed ranks among the top of all flying magical beasts. It is cunning and ferocious by nature, extremely difficult to capture, and only lives in the Cloud Mist region in the southern part of the continent."

"A fifth-tier magical beast!" Xiao Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he swallowed hard. That was equivalent to a Dou Wang powerhouse in human form.

"This combat technique, named Eagle Wings, also known as Purple Cloud Wings, was created by myself and several friends after three years of effort. We finally captured a Black Flame Purple Cloud Eagle, used a secret method to extract its wings, and finally formed this flying combat technique that can be practiced. This technique was drawn with my battle qi before my death, and it can only be practiced by one person at a time. Remember this!"

Xiao Jue laughed and said, "This is a flying combat technique. Once you master it, you can fly like a Battle King."

After putting away the scroll, Xiao Jue picked up Little Fairy Doctor and said with a light laugh, "We'll go ahead first, you can walk slowly."

Xiao Jue unfurled golden dragon wings, leaving Xiao Yan dumbfounded. With Yao Lao present, he was able to predict Xiao Jue's location.

Upon seeing a basin, Xiao Jue continued forward, slowly descending into a small valley at the bottom of the basin.

This place is completely isolated from the outside world, and is shrouded in thick fog, making it extremely secluded. Surprisingly, various rare medicinal herbs grow in the valley, and the fragrance of herbs mingles with the fog, making people feel refreshed and relaxed.

Little Fairy Doctor asked, "Senior, shall we stay here from now on?"

Xiao Jue nodded and smiled, "You can just call me Xiao Jue. If you think about it carefully, I'm only fifteen years old right now, not even sixteen yet."

Little Fairy Doctor was very surprised. Xiao Jue was so strong, yet he was not even sixteen years old?

"You can also cultivate the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture here. I'll tell my cousin not to bother you. I'll be leaving for a few days, but I'll be back later."

Little Fairy Doctor nodded, pointed to a corner of the valley where there was a thatched hut, and smiled, "I've been here before. I built this place before, and I've been living there for a while now."

Xiao Jue nodded and handed Little Fairy Doctor a high-level Xuan-rank poison-attribute cultivation technique, along with some dried meat and drinking water.

"This is a cultivation technique suitable for you. After you break through to the Great Dou Master level, I will prepare a Di-rank cultivation technique for you. After my cousin returns, you should give this flying combat technique scroll to him."

"Also, tell him to wait for me here for the next while. If he leaves before I get here, he can forget about the Ice Spirit Flame Grass and the Ice Spirit Cold Spring."

Xiao Jue gave the Purple Cloud Wings to Little Fairy Doctor, then leaned forward and gently kissed her lips. After Little Fairy Doctor lowered her head shyly, he spread his dragon wings and flew away.

Upon entering the heart of the Monster Mountain Range, Xiao Jue landed in front of a cave. He observed the numerous monsters running rampant in the mountain range and noticed the faint aura of the Illusionary Fire Scorpion Dragon Beast's bloodline emanating from him, causing the monsters to flee.

In the river beneath a waterfall ahead, a beautiful woman dressed in plain clothes floats above it, her eyes tightly closed and her face pale, suggesting she is seriously injured.

"Why do I feel like I'm even better at timing than Xiao Yan?" Xiao Jue chuckled, listening to the faint roars of several magical beasts coming from the distant jungle. He picked her up and entered the cave.
