Battle Through the Heavens: Reborn as a Devouring Python, Medusa is taken home.

Chapter 165, Dan Chen; Heading to the Ten Thousand Medicine Mountains

boom!

At the critical moment, Ning Su appeared in front of the girl, pressed down on the head of the Bloodthirsty Demon Bird with one hand, and forcefully held down the Bloodthirsty Demon Bird as it swooped down at full speed.

The Bloodthirsty Demon Bird tried to resist, but three-colored flames erupted from Ning Su's palm, instantly engulfing it and burning it to ashes.

Only the Eight Treasures Spirit Flower atop the Bloodthirsty Demon Bird's head escaped the fire and successfully fell into Ning Su's palm.

The girl looked at Ning Su, who had suddenly appeared in front of her, in surprise.

"Are you alright?" Ning Su then turned around and reached out her hand to the girl.

"Thanks……"

The girl thanked her softly, then took Ning Su's hand and stood up.

The moment her hand touched Ning Su's hand, Ning Su immediately felt as if a strange power emanating from her was devouring his soul power.

Although the movement was very slight, he could still clearly feel that his soul seemed to be drawn in.

This was the first time Ning Su had ever felt like he was being devoured by someone else. Although the other party couldn't absorb his soul, he still found it somewhat novel.

After all, he used to be the one devouring others.

The girl then realized what had happened, quickly released her grip, and took two steps back, full of apology: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

She clearly knew what had just happened.

"Your constitution is quite unique," Ning said with some interest.

The ability to devour souls is indeed rare, and it seems to be a passive effect of hers.

It's just a bit weak. If the power could be increased and then actively released, the effect would be better.

His words only made the girl lower her head more shyly, and she whispered, "Thank you for saving me just now..."

"Are you from the Dan family?"

Ning Su suddenly noticed a familiar badge on her collar, exactly the same one he had seen at the Dan family auction in Dan City a few days ago.

"Um... my name is Dan Chen," the girl said.

She looked gentle and timid, and probably rarely interacted with outsiders.

"So you're Dan Chen." Ning Su said with a hint of surprise.

He remembered that Dan Chen and Cao Ying were both geniuses in alchemy, and Dan Chen's talent in alchemy was even slightly higher than Cao Ying's.

However, due to Dan Chen's own reasons, she rarely interacts with outsiders and usually stays at the Dan family home.

As a result, her fame is far less than Cao Ying's, and many people don't even know she exists.

Dan Chen was surprised that Ning Su knew her: "You...know me?"

"I've heard of it. I even sold some pills at your Dan family's auction a while ago."

Upon hearing this, Dan Chen's eyes suddenly lit up. His gaze then fell upon the seventh-grade mid-level alchemist badge on Ning Su's chest, and he recalled the events of the auction that day.

"The alchemist who sold a lot of Grade 7 pills at our auction that day, including some Life-Returning Pills and Azure Nether Longevity Pills, was it you?"

"What, you were there that day too?" Ning Su didn't see Dan Chen that day.

However, he did sell the Life-Returning Pill and the Azure Longevity Pill.

Dan Chen nodded: "Hmm... I took a look at the pills you refined, they're very powerful."

Because of her different physical condition, Dan Chen has always kept a distance from the people around her since she was a child, which has made her gentle and timid, and she is almost unwilling to communicate with strangers.

However, there is one exception—that is, when it involves elixirs.

Her only hobby is alchemy, especially the refinement of high-quality alchemy.

Therefore, she is willing to communicate with some skilled alchemists.

Ning Su's refined pills also gained her approval.

Most importantly, Ning Su looked only a few years older than her, and this kind of genius alchemist who was closer to her age was more likely to pique her interest.

"Thank you for the compliment. If there's a chance later, we can exchange our alchemy tips," Ning said with a smile.

He had a pretty good impression of Dan Chen.

Perhaps it's because she looks so gentle and delicate that it makes people want to protect her.

"Oh, right, I still don't know your name..."

"I'd rather sue."

Dan Chen nodded and silently memorized the name.

……

After leaving the valley, the two went their separate ways.

Ning Su still needs to continue searching for the medicinal herbs he needs for his mission, and Dan Chen also needs to find the medicinal herbs she needs.

Moreover, their goals were not aligned.

"Next place... the Ten Thousand Medicines Mountain Range, why is it so far?"

The Wanyao Mountain Range is far from where he is now, almost on the other side of the map.

However, Ning Su couldn't refuse to go, because his remaining holy son, Suzuki, could only be found in the Ten Thousand Medicines Mountain Range.

The latest novel is first published here!

"Let's go."

Ning had no choice but to fly towards the Wanyao Mountain Range.

We've seen more and more fighting and conflict along the way.

Some were simply trying to seize the treasure, while others were forced to fight over the medicinal herbs they were assigned to.

This is also a kind of assessment by the Dan Association.

The Pill Tower does not explicitly prohibit fighting among its members, so anything can happen in the Pill Realm.

Murder and robbery are quite normal.

After all, wherever there are people, there will inevitably be disputes and grudges.

If you unfortunately die here, Danta will not be held responsible.

Ning Su's destination was the Wanyao Mountain Range. He sped along the way and soon arrived at the place.

……

The Wanyao Mountain Range is the place with the most medicinal herbs in the entire Dan Realm. Many people can find the medicinal herbs they need on their task list in the Wanyao Mountain Range.

So when Ning Su arrived at the Wanyao Mountain Range, she saw a lot of people gathered at the entrance of the mountain range, seemingly discussing how to cooperate and enter together.

"It seems there are quite a few powerful individuals in this Ten Thousand Medicines Mountain Range."

These people wouldn't team up together if they didn't have a common enemy.

For these people, all the alchemists around them are competitors.

Most people would be happy if others failed to complete the game, so that there would be fewer competitors.

However, an eighth-tier magical beast blocked their path in the Wanyao Mountain Range, forcing them to temporarily unite and cooperate.

These alchemists are so skilled that there's nothing wrong with their alchemy techniques; they are basically among the top alchemists on the continent.

But when it comes to actual strength, that's their weakness.

The common problem among alchemists is their lack of combat power. Even if some alchemists have high cultivation levels, they are still relatively weak and many rely on pills to sustain themselves.

Therefore, under the same level, alchemists are generally not as powerful as pure cultivators.

After all, alchemists usually focus more on alchemy and don't pay enough attention to cultivation, and they also lack combat experience and skills.

However, given their overall cultivation level, and the fact that alchemists can continuously consume pills during battle, their endurance is stronger than that of ordinary cultivators.

Ning glanced at it briefly and chose to fly to the Wanyao Mountain Range alone.

The fact that those alchemists are not strong enough in combat does not mean that they are not good at combat.
