The Transmigrator Who Changed Doupo

As the eight deep blue chains locked her in place, the Nightmare Queen felt all the power in her body vanish, leaving her with only the strength of an ordinary mortal who had not cultivated. Then, she was instantly pulled back by the eight chains and bound to the Heavenly Pillar, unable to move!

"What terrifying power is this?! Even my very soul cannot resist it, and I cannot exert even the slightest bit of my strength!"

At this moment, the Nightmare Queen looked terrified and trembled uncontrollably. She knew that she seemed to have been defeated. Before, she was the one being slaughtered, but now everything had turned upside down!

As the Nightmare Queen was chained to the Heavenly Pillar by eight deep blue chains, the surrounding seawater receded instantly, returning to its previous calm state, leaving only a mess on the island. Xiao Xuanyuan's soul seemed extremely weak, collapsing to the ground and losing consciousness!

……

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Xuanyuan slowly opened his eyes. Before him lay a face of celestial beauty, and he was lying in the arms of this celestial woman.

"Junior Brother Xiao, you're awake?" Senior Sister Hua turned her head, secretly wiped her beautiful eyes, and then returned to her previous indifferent expression.

Although Senior Sister Hua tried her best to hide it, Xiao Xuanyuan noticed some clues in her slightly reddened eyes. Moreover, in his dazed state, he seemed to have vaguely heard some of Senior Sister Hua's "heartfelt words" to him, such as "Junior Brother Xiao, don't die. If you wake up, I can promise you something." In short, even though he didn't hear it very clearly, Xiao Xuanyuan still had some vague impressions.

"Could it be that Senior Sister Hua agreed to be with me?" Xiao Xuanyuan had a vague guess in his heart, but none of that mattered anymore. The fact that he was able to wake up now proved that he had survived this life-or-death crisis and suppressed the Nightmare Queen on the Heavenly Pillar in his sea of ​​consciousness!

All of this is so fortunate!

Chapter Seventy-Seven Forging Techniques

Having vaguely understood Senior Sister Hua's thoughts, and knowing that he had already overcome this difficulty, Xiao Xuanyuan breathed a slight sigh of relief. He then instructed Senior Sister Hua to protect him, sat down cross-legged, took out pills from his storage ring to restore his battle qi, soul energy, and mental strength, and swallowed them all to cultivate and recover.

After all, in order to deal with the Nightmare Queen, Xiao Xuanyuan had exhausted all his physical energy, soul energy, and mental strength. If he did not recover quickly, he would probably not be able to cope with any dangers or difficulties that might arise.

He sat there for more than an hour. When Xiao Xuanyuan opened his eyes, his strength had recovered to six or seven tenths, which was a great boost.

Looking at Senior Sister Hua, who was wary of his surroundings, Xiao Xuanyuan smiled slightly and immediately immersed his spiritual power into his sea of ​​consciousness. His soul body in the sea of ​​consciousness also suddenly opened its eyes.

Even though his soul essence normally possesses a portion of self-cultivation consciousness that is connected to Xiao Xuanyuan's self, essentially giving him a sense of being an avatar, he generally doesn't enter his sea of ​​consciousness, allowing his soul essence to cultivate on its own. However, as long as he gives an order, his soul essence will obey. Moreover, if he wants to enter his sea of ​​consciousness, it is his soul essence that awakens from it!

This kind of mysterious and profound concept is generally incomprehensible to ordinary people; it's more like the ego, subconscious, or id that people usually hear about. But the true soul is the subconscious and the id.

Having just awakened from his original soul body, Xiao Xuanyuan frowned and sensed his entire sea of ​​consciousness. Last time, when the ancient powerhouse, the array master Zong Wuyai, came to possess him, it caused chaos and tremors in his sea of ​​consciousness. It took a lot of effort to stabilize and calm it down again. Now, because of the Nightmare Queen's "mischief," it almost tore Xiao Xuanyuan's sea of ​​consciousness apart. It is estimated that he will need to spend time cultivating his sea of ​​consciousness to restore its previous stability!

With a wry smile, Xiao Xuanyuan had decided to order his soul to repair itself. Otherwise, given the current state of his sea of ​​consciousness, another disturbance similar to the Nightmare Queen would likely cause it to collapse.

Putting that thought aside, Xiao Xuanyuan's soul stood up, his figure standing with his hands behind his back, like a god, and flew into the air, arriving in front of the pillar where eight dark blue chains bound the Nightmare Queen in a moment!

"Queen, how are you doing?" Xiao Xuanyuan sneered. This woman was really crazy, relentlessly pestering him and almost turning him into an idiot. This kind of hatred was irreconcilable!

"Hmph, I never expected that there would be chains here that could bind me. If I had known this, I should have killed you in one move!" The Nightmare Queen's still alluring and charming face turned fierce. When she got angry, she was still as beautiful and moving as ever.

"Hmph, Queen, you still have the energy to get angry at me? You've tried to deal with me time and time again. I'm already being incredibly merciful by not killing you. Now, you'd better pay me some interest..."

As he spoke, Xiao Xuanyuan walked up step by step.

"What do you want to do?! Let me tell you, don't mess around. All the beings on this Dou Qi Continent are my energy source. You can't kill me. If you act recklessly, I will make you pay when I get out!" The Nightmare Queen's voice was fierce, but Xiao Xuanyuan could clearly see the fear in her expression. However, no matter what happened, Xiao Xuanyuan would not let her go today!

"Then I'll be waiting! Just come when the time comes!" With that, Xiao Xuanyuan ripped off his tattered clothes and transformed into a fierce tiger, pouncing on him.

Moments later, from the island pillar in the sea of ​​consciousness, came the Nightmare Queen's furious roar, filled with gritted teeth and boundless hatred, "You will die... um... hmph... you will die a gruesome death... hmph... I will never forgive you... hmph..."

Accompanying the Nightmare Queen's roar were a series of indescribable groans, which grew louder and more frantic, spreading out and shaking the entire sea of ​​consciousness...

It's unclear how much time passed—perhaps a moment, perhaps a day or two—but when Xiao Xuanyuan left his soul and his sea of ​​consciousness, the Nightmare Queen was utterly exhausted, half-kneeling in a limp state. However, the dark blue chains binding her prevented her from kneeling completely.

After leaving his sea of ​​consciousness, Xiao Xuanyuan was completely satisfied. Despite the Nightmare Queen's usual domineering, alluring, and seductive demeanor, she hadn't actually experienced anything yet. But that didn't matter anymore. He could control the passage of time within his sea of ​​consciousness. He could immerse himself in it whenever he had time and give the Nightmare Queen some proper care, letting her experience what it's like to be a woman, so she wouldn't keep yelling at him.

Thinking this, Xiao Xuanyuan's consciousness returned to reality. Only a short while had passed outside, but in fact, one or two days had already passed inside his sea of ​​consciousness. This is the wonder of the soul world within the sea of ​​consciousness.

"Senior Sister Hua, let's go now!" As soon as he woke up, Xiao Xuanyuan got up, reached out and took Hua Xianzi's hand, and walked into the depths of the black grassland.

"Mmm." The flower fairy nodded in a soft, shy voice. If Xiao Xuanyuan hadn't had such good hearing that he could hear very faint sounds, he probably wouldn't have heard it at all.

After walking for a while, the previous onslaught of black nightmare energy did not reappear. Only occasionally would a few strands of black nightmare energy pass by and entangle the two of them. However, in front of Xiao Xuanyuan, all of this turned into nutrients in his sea of ​​consciousness: black nightmare energy clouds!

They accept as much as it comes, without any politeness, absorbing and refining it with an open heart!

In the final stretch of the journey, Xiao Xuanyuan decided to try to break the formation of the black grassland in the magnetic field zone. He refused to believe that there was any formation he, the "inheritor" of an ancient formation master, could not solve. He really wanted to give it a try!

Before that, Xiao Xuanyuan wanted to practice his gravity combat technique and improve its power! After all, the no-fly zone of the Black Grassland was a good place to practice his gravity combat technique.

Without hesitation, Xiao Xuanyuan abandoned Senior Sister Hua, unleashed the Purple Cloud Wings on his back, transformed into a streak of light, and soared into the sky. Instantly, the terrifying, powerful gravity from above swept down like a mountain, fiercely pressing down upon them.

"Good timing!" Xiao Xuanyuan was not surprised but delighted. He quickly used his gravity fighting technique in the opposite direction and clashed fiercely with the powerful gravity that was suppressing him.

scoff!scoff!

Accompanied by this strange sound, as if the electromagnetic arcs of the Earth's North and South Poles were repelling each other, arc-shaped trajectories appeared before Xiao Xuanyuan, representing the clash of two gravitational forces!

"So strong!"

Even though Xiao Xuanyuan used all his gravity fighting skills, which reached dozens of times the normal gravity, he was still severely suppressed by the terrifying pressure of the restriction. He was slightly off, but he still managed to offset a lot of the pressure. At this moment, Xiao Xuanyuan felt as if he was carrying a weight of over a thousand pounds on his back. His veins bulged, and he was sweating profusely.

Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Array of Immortality

Even so, Xiao Xuanyuan remained undeterred, unleashing his full gravity combat technique to fiercely resist the gravitational pressure exerted by the restriction. He also circulated the Burning Technique within his body, continuously converting and absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth...

Despite being in such an extreme state, Xiao Xuanyuan still managed to fly, though at a very slow speed, like an ordinary person walking, or even like a baby learning to walk, with each step unsteady and he couldn't fly forward on the same horizontal line. He could only fly forward awkwardly, sometimes high, sometimes low, sometimes left, sometimes right.

Having severely depleted his battle qi, Xiao Xuanyuan hurriedly took out a pill from his storage ring to quickly restore his battle qi, swallowed it, and immediately began to struggle to hold on.

It has to be said that under extreme pressure, a person's potential is forced out and constantly bursts forth. After Xiao Xuanyuan persisted for half an hour, his flight speed not only increased rapidly, but was comparable to the walking speed of a normal adult. His gravity combat technique multiplier continued to increase, and the pressure he could withstand also increased. At the same time, his strength also continued to advance and climb higher.

Not only did it stop there, but the arc of its flight also became more and more stable, no longer fearing the pressure of the airspace restrictions that would affect the unstable flight state, which fluctuated between high and low!

Simply put, this is a welcome sign of progress!

Senior Sister Hua seemed worried about Xiao Xuanyuan being alone on the black grassland, so she followed closely behind him in the sky, never leaving his side. This moved Xiao Xuanyuan deeply; this woman was truly incredibly good to him.

Pressure breeds progress. With the powerful suppression of the no-fly zone, and with the pressure seemingly growing stronger, Xiao Xuanyuan's potential was gradually developed, and his figure in the air became increasingly stable.

A quarter of an hour, half an hour, half an hour...

Time continued to pass, and the pressure from the anti-flight restrictions on Xiao Xuanyuan grew stronger and stronger. Even so, his flight became more and more stable and faster. At the same time, his gravity combat technique was also constantly improving, from the first level of one times the gravity to two times, three times, four times, four and a half times...

Finally, it seemed to have reached a peak, reaching ten times the first level of gravity. The rate of increase was getting slower and slower. At this point, the pressure of the entire anti-air restriction had reached a terrifying level. Xiao Xuanyuan discovered that compared to the initial pressure value of several thousand kilograms, it had now reached tens of thousands of kilograms. If it weren't for the gravity combat technique being used at all times, he would probably have been crushed into mincemeat!

"Alright, that's enough for now." Xiao Xuanyuan nodded to himself, then landed from the air, drenched in sweat. His clothes were completely soaked. It had to be said that while the anti-flight restriction here was an excellent place for cultivation, the energy consumption was also astonishing. In just a few hours, Xiao Xuanyuan had already used up more than ten pills to restore his battle qi, almost depleting his previously refined and stored reserves. After leaving this place, he would have to collect a large number of spiritual herbs to refine another batch of pills!

"Junior Brother Xiao, are you alright?" Fairy Flower quickly stepped forward, looking at him with some concern. Having seen Xiao Xuanyuan flying in the sky for so long, she had already figured it out. It turned out that Junior Brother Xiao was using the anti-flying restrictions here to cultivate his fighting skills, so she didn't know what to say.

"It's nothing, I just need to meditate and recover for a while," Xiao Xuanyuan nodded, then sat down cross-legged and prepared to start cultivating. After hesitating for a moment, he still said, "Senior Sister Hua, if you're in a hurry, you should leave here as soon as possible. Well, I have some things to do here, so I won't go out for the time being."

"What are you saying, Junior Brother Xiao? You saved me and have done me a great favor. How could I possibly abandon you and leave alone like this? If you keep saying that, I'll get angry." The Flower Fairy frowned, pretending to be displeased.

"Okay, I know, I know you care about me, Senior Sister, my darling." Xiao Xuanyuan boldly reached out and slapped her delicate bottom, making her blush. However, Senior Sister Hua mumbled something and then turned her head to look elsewhere.

"Hehe, this looks promising!" Xiao Xuanyuan chuckled to himself, then ignored the matter, swallowed a pill, and his strength was fully restored.

When cultivating, one loses track of time. He didn't know how much time had passed, but after about half an hour, Xiao Xuanyuan woke up. He opened his eyes, glanced at Senior Sister Hua who was guarding not far away, and then ignored her. He then released his soul perception to study the restrictive formations here.

Not long ago, he had roughly figured out the origin of this formation. It was a level five restriction formation called the Void Locking Illusion Formation. As the name suggests, it was a formation that could lock this space, create illusions, and absorb the void energy of the void to operate!

In fact, array masters need to study various arrays and understand their principles and rules. Once they have learned and mastered them, they can combine all the individual arrays, such as illusion arrays or sword and spear arrays, to unlock and implement those top-level arrays.

It's like how elementary school students learn addition and subtraction in first and second grade, multiplication and division in fifth and sixth grade, and finally combine them together, doing addition, subtraction, multiplication and division together. Then in junior high school, they learn more complex linear and quadratic functions, and in high school, they learn even more advanced ones. It's all based on the same principle.

Array masters are not born with the ability to set up top-level complex arrays. They all start with simple ones, then learn more complex arrays, and finally reach the most intricate and complex top-level arrays!

With this experience and knowledge, top-level array masters can set up their own arrays or develop other innovative arrays. According to Zong Wuyai's memory, it is said that when an array master reaches the final stage, they can not only set up top-level longevity arrays within the human body to make a person live forever, but they can even use arrays to create universes!

Just like scientists who study biochemistry, at the top level they can innovate and create a substance, such as vegetarian meat, meat created from vegetarian food, or a new type of hormone, etc., it is all based on the same principle.

Thinking of this, Xiao Xuanyuan couldn't help but feel excited. Setting up a longevity formation within the human body—if he could achieve this level of mastery, he could grant his family and friends immortality, preventing them from aging and passing away due to insufficient cultivation. How delightful that would be!

For example, Ya Han used to be a receptionist at the Alchemist Guild. Although she received pills as rewards from the Alchemist Guild, her aptitude was limited, and she couldn't stay young forever. Moreover, as life passed, she would eventually die. This immortality formation might be one of the keys for Xiao Xuanyuan to open that door!

No matter who it is, they may have many confidantes, but not everyone can be like Xun'er, possessing excellent talent and a powerful family background to support the terrifying consumption of resources. Therefore, most confidantes have relationships that last for a period of time, ranging from a few hundred years to a few hundred years, before they fade away and die.

Only when one reaches the level of mastery required to set up an immortality formation can they be with one for eternity!

"Sigh, why think so much? I'm not even sure I can live forever." Xiao Xuanyuan shook his head slightly and smiled. He would think about it when he reached that level of cultivation. For now, he would focus on breaking through the control of this level 5 Void Locking Illusion Technique.

Chapter Seventy-Nine: Breaking the No-Fly Zone

His powerful soul perception was released continuously, even opening his Heavenly Vision Divine Eye. Even though the Void Array of the Level 5 Locking Illusion Technique was hidden extremely well, Xiao Xuanyuan believed that it could not escape his discerning eyes.

Amidst the overwhelming, net-like perception of souls, the black grassland before them appeared as if it were transparent.

Perhaps Senior Sister Hua couldn't see it, but under the dual gaze of Xiao Xuanyuan's terrifying soul perception and Heavenly Vision Divine Eye, array lines were revealed on the black grassland in front of them, both in the sky and on the ground. The dense array lines spread out and covered the sky, like a net that was interwoven in the heavens and the earth, leaving no place to hide. People were suppressed from all directions by these array lines hidden in the dark at all times.

"It really is a level five Void Locking Illusion Technique Void Array! The array eye is well hidden. I've finally found the first array eye!" After spending a quarter of an hour, Xiao Xuanyuan finally found a hidden array eye concealed by rocks on an inconspicuous spot on the ground.

Since this is a level 5 Void Locking Illusion Formation, it involves an extremely ingenious design and structure. Naturally, it doesn't just have one array eye. After all, as the last trump card array of the Divine Medicine Pavilion's former Magnetic Void Belt, its power should not be underestimated.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to form such a large-scale, automatically operating array. Moreover, the more advanced, exquisite, and ingenious the top-tier array, the more and purer the high-grade materials and energy it requires. For example, arrays of levels one to four can be constructed using low-grade spirit stones (array stones), while high-level arrays of levels five and six require at least mid-grade spirit stones for initial operation.

Just like this Level 5 Void Locking Illusionary Array, after being activated and powered by a mid-grade spirit stone, it can automatically absorb the terrifying void energy from the void as the entire array operates, continuously absorbing and converting it into the energy needed for the entire array to operate.

Moreover, the higher the level of the formation, the more array eyes are required. Some formations even require hundreds or thousands of array eyes, which is incredibly terrifying. However, as the number of array eyes in such top-level formations increases, their power becomes even more formidable.

Lower-level formations, from level one to four, do not require so many array eyes. Otherwise, the power of these lower-level formations would actually decrease as the number of array eyes increases.

The immense spiritual perception, like octopus tentacles, stretched out into the distance, searching for any possible hidden array eyes. The array master who set up this Level 5 Void Locking Illusion Array was incredibly skilled, possessing an extremely high level of expertise in array setup. The number of array eyes they had created was considerable, and many of them were fake, disguised array eyes. Therefore, the purpose of these fake array eyes was to conceal the existence of the real array eyes, making them as cunning as foxes.

Soon, after eliminating more than a dozen false array eyes, Xiao Xuanyuan finally found another true array eye. Now, the area of ​​the black grassland that he could control had expanded considerably.

After spending a considerable amount of time, Xiao Xuanyuan still couldn't find the third true array eye. Frustrated, a misty Spirit Heaven Sword appeared in his hand. This longsword, formed from soul perception, could even wound the soul and was specifically designed to deal with these ethereal energy entities!

"cut!"

Without saying a word, Xiao Xuanyuan rushed to the area where the array eye had not yet been found and slashed down at one of the array lines around him.

This slash severed the array line pattern instantly. Like a butterfly effect, it snapped with a whoosh, causing all the surrounding array lines to vibrate and shake violently.

As the surrounding array lines became chaotic, the true array eye unique to this area was instantly activated, continuously absorbing energy from the void and supplying it to this area. It began to repair the broken array line and restore order, stabilizing all the turbulent array lines.

In fact, if Xiao Xuanyuan wanted to break the formation in this area, he only needed to break the hidden formation. However, he did not do that. Instead, he quickly found the core of the formation, then imprinted his own formation mark on it and took control of it.
