The Transmigrator Who Changed Doupo

Xiao Ning glanced at Xiao Mei and reminded her, "Xiao Mei, she already has Xun'er... Let's go..." After saying this, Xiao Ning looked at Xun'er's retreating figure in the distance for a few more moments before leaving with a very unwilling expression.

Xiao Mei's expression was still somewhat gloomy.

"Let's go..." Several of Xiao Mei's friends gently advised her.

……

After they had walked a distance, Xun'er's beautiful little face showed some displeasure: "Brother Xuanyuan, Xiao Mei likes you..."

"Uh." Xiao Xuanyuan touched his nose awkwardly. He didn't expect this little girl to be so direct.

"What are you thinking? Don't you believe in my heart for you..." As he spoke, Xiao Xuanyuan reached out and hooked Xun'er's little head with his hands.

Before Xiao Xuanyuan could kiss her, Xun'er chuckled, ducked, and dodged Xiao Xuanyuan's 'attack'.

"Brother Xuanyuan, Xun'er is ignoring you, hehe..." A clear and melodious laugh, like the ringing of a wind chime, lingered as Xun'er's beautiful and graceful figure, like a butterfly in flight, drifted into the distance.

"Thank goodness that little girl is gone..." Xiao Xuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief. He had just been able to cultivate battle qi, and the Xiao family's ritual test was just a week away. Now he had to hurry up and seize the time to cultivate. Time waits for no one!

Back at his lodgings, Xiao Xuanyuan woke up Elder Yao and asked him to teach him a method to quickly improve his cultivation of battle qi. Unexpectedly, as soon as Elder Yao appeared, he lashed Xiao Xuanyuan with a heavy whip. Caught off guard, Xiao Xuanyuan was struck squarely on the back, wincing in pain. He almost wanted to rush forward and tear Elder Yao apart!

"No pain, no gain. If you can't even endure this little bit of hardship, how can you expect to quickly improve your fighting spirit?" Old Yao offered a timely word of comfort, otherwise Xiao Xuanyuan might have wanted to fight him to the death.

"Is there a way to avoid suffering? This method is too cruel, it's really unpleasant to be whipped like this." Xiao Xuanyuan grimaced, his face contorted as he endured the burning pain in his back.

"No. This is a cultivation method that rapidly increases physical strength, allowing for faster absorption of battle qi." Old Yao smiled mockingly.

"Well, there's no other way then! Just keep hitting me!" Xiao Xuanyuan gritted his teeth and said decisively. He was really going all out to improve his strength.

"Hehe, kid, there's actually an even better way to cultivate. Do you want to try it?" Suddenly, the old medicine master's expression changed, and he said in a tempting tone.

"What method is that?" Xiao Xuanyuan's eyes lit up. The thought of this kind of grueling body-refining cultivation was painful for him. If there were other alternative cultivation methods, he wouldn't mind trying them.

The old man with the medicine gave another sly smile...

……

An hour later, on the back mountain of the Xiao family, Xiao Xuanyuan, his face bruised and swollen, begged for mercy with a mournful expression, "Elder Yao, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me, you are a magnanimous person..."

"Hehe, it's not that easy. Since it has started, there is no end to it..." The old man was like a ghost, suspended in mid-air, while he swung a tree as thick as a bowl in his hands, constantly hitting Xiao Xuanyuan.

This large tree was about twenty or thirty feet tall. The old man 'Yao' controlled it with both hands, alternating between left and right, and kept whipping it down at Xiao Xuanyuan.

Xiao Xuanyuan was forced to jump and dodge constantly as he was being beaten, otherwise he would have been hit by the thick tree trunk...

Xiao Xuanyuan glared at the old medicine man with resentment, his teeth practically grinding to powder. He thought fiercely to himself: "What's the difference between this method and being whipped? It's just more brutal and direct. Old medicine man, you... I'll remember you..."

Cursing inwardly, Xiao Xuanyuan couldn't afford to be idle. He dodged and weaved like a grasshopper, unable to pause for even a moment. Otherwise, he'd surely be beaten to death by Elder Yao with his weapon...

……

Two days later, on the back mountain of the Xiao family, Elder Yao was wielding an even thicker and larger tree, roughly the width of a person's outstretched arms... and beneath Elder Yao, Xiao Xuanyuan's figure was even more disheveled as he dodged...

Two days later, the old man "Medicine" moved a tree several times larger than the previous one from somewhere in the Monster Mountain Range...

"Old Medicine Master, you idiot, you..."

Xiao Xuanyuan was howling and screaming below when, without noticing, the towering tree swept across him and slammed into his back, smashing him into the mountainside behind him. A deep, human-shaped dent was suddenly left in the flat mountainside...

Time flies, and two more days have passed in the blink of an eye.

With a bruised and swollen face, wearing a tattered white long-sleeved shirt, and covered in wounds, Xiao Xuanyuan walked down the back mountain. He walked with a limp, looking extremely disheveled, and his face carried a strong sense of resentment. He resembled a sheltered young wife who had suffered unfair treatment...

Back in his courtyard, Xiao Xuanyuan filled a large wooden tub with hot water. After diluting the Foundation Establishment Elixir refined by the Old Man of Medicine, he wearily slumped into the tub and sat down cross-legged. This action seemed to aggravate some wound, causing Xiao Xuanyuan to wince in pain once more…

After sitting cross-legged, Xiao Xuanyuan forced himself to focus, barely managing to form a cultivation hand seal. Then, he focused his mind and entered a meditative state...

After Xiao Xuanyuan entered a meditative state, a wisp of a ghost slowly floated out from the ring on the middle finger of his left hand, and then hovered in mid-air.

Seeing Xiao Xuanyuan's stubborn brows furrowed tightly due to the intense pain in his body, Yao Lao sighed softly: "Without intense suffering, how can one acquire strength so easily? Without enduring the trials and tribulations, how can one see the rainbow after the storm... This is the path you chose yourself, I hope you won't blame me..."

Time flies when people are cultivating. After being brutally tortured by the old doctor, Xiao Xuanyuan's injured body rapidly absorbed the medicinal power of the medicinal water. His injuries were constantly improving, and the fighting spirit in his dantian was also constantly circulating, being absorbed from his meridians...

Before an hour had passed, the blue medicinal liquid mixed with Foundation Establishment Elixir in the water had become transparent, and it was crystal clear at a glance.

After the last trace of the Foundation Building Elixir in the water was completely absorbed, Xiao Xuanyuan suddenly opened his eyes, and streaks of pale silver light, like lightning, flashed and disappeared in his eyes.

"Battle Qi, Level Six!"

Chapter 20 I Don't Want the Eight Extremes to Collapse

Within a short hour, the blue medicinal liquid in the large wooden barrel, which contained the Foundation Building Elixir, gradually faded and became lighter in color, eventually turning into a clear, transparent liquid.

At that moment, Xiao Xuanyuan suddenly opened his eyes, and two pale silver lights flashed and disappeared.

"Battle Qi, Level Six!"

A hint of helplessness flashed in Xiao Xuanyuan's eyes. Six days ago, when he first started using the Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid to fuse with hot water, it took him almost a whole day to fully absorb the medicinal effects of the liquid. As a result, his fourth-stage Dou Qi also improved significantly.

However, in the future, the more times he absorbed the medicinal effects of the medicine fused with the Foundation Building Spirit Liquid, the shorter the time it took for Xiao Xuanyuan to absorb the medicinal effects.

Each time Xiao Xuanyuan absorbed the Foundation Building Spirit Liquid from the medicinal liquid, he found that the effect of this Foundation Building Spirit Liquid on improving his Dou Qi cultivation would become less and less, to the point that now, after he had improved his Dou Qi to the sixth level, it didn't even take an hour.

"Sigh. These six days of painful training have used up seven or eight bottles of Foundation Establishment Elixir. There's only one day left before the family's internal ritual test. I'd better prepare well."

Xiao Xuanyuan scrambled out of the large wooden tub, quickly dressed, and then jogged all the way to the back mountain of the family.

In fact, the Xiao family's back mountain is very large. Because Wutancheng is located near the western part of the Monster Mountain Range, and the Xiao family is located in the area of ​​Wutancheng that is close to the Monster Mountain Range. After climbing the back mountain of the Xiao family, you can see the wispy white clouds on the Monster Mountain Range and below is a secluded valley.

Because of its proximity to the Monster Mountain Range, sitting on the back mountain of his family, Xiao Xuanyuan could occasionally hear the piercing roars of unknown monsters echoing from the quiet, deep valleys beneath the high clouds. The sounds were sometimes deep and resonant, sometimes sharp and piercing, sometimes high-pitched, and sometimes low... These sounds instilled a sense of fear in people's hearts without them even realizing it.

However, Xiao Xuanyuan had a good attitude and didn't take it to heart, so he wasn't too bothered by it.

Hearing the faint roars of beasts coming from the deep valley below, Xiao Xuanyuan ignored them. He used the sound transmission method taught to him by the old man to send a message to the old man who was sleeping in the ring, telling him to come out quickly and assist him in his cultivation.

After a short while, Yao Lao, looking somewhat tired, emerged from the ring with a hint of weariness.

"Elder Yao, the family's ritual test is the day after tomorrow. Do you have any way to help me quickly reach the seventh level of Dou Qi?"

As soon as Yao Lao emerged, he yawned. He forced himself to stay alert and mobilized his soul power. With his right hand, he controlled a giant tree lying diagonally on a rock not far away. In the blink of an eye, a piercing sound rang out, and the giant tree, under Yao Lao's control of his soul power, suddenly swung horizontally towards Xiao Xuanyuan!

"I wipe!"

Xiao Xuanyuan cried out in alarm, his face filled with horror as he quickly and tightly lay down on the ground, narrowly and swiftly dodging the giant tree that swept across from above!

After the giant tree roared past, it did not stop its momentum. After traveling a distance of halfway through the air, it turned back and, with a deep, whistling sound, slammed down hard towards Xiao Xuanyuan's head!

"Damn it! I'm not playing anymore, 'Medicine Master,' stop!" Xiao Xuanyuan cried out in terror, terrified and running away in a panic towards the distant pile of rocks! If he were hit by that giant tree, he'd be lucky to escape with his life!

In these short six days, the trunk of the tree that the "Medicine" Elder used grew thicker and thicker. It went from being as thick as a bowl to being so thick that one person could barely stretch out their arms and hug it, to now being so thick that it would take several adults to stretch out their arms and hold hands to hug it.

After being relentlessly bombarded by this giant tree trunk for two days, Xiao Xuanyuan now suspects he has some aftereffects of the bombardment when he sees it again. He wishes he could run far away right now, lest he be accidentally knocked into the ground by this giant tree trunk, a truly gruesome sight!

"Oh!"

After deliberately chasing Xiao Xuanyuan for a while, Yao Lao finally stopped and asked, pretending not to understand, "What? Don't you want to quickly improve your current Dou Qi level?"

After the old man stopped, Xiao Xuanyuan braced himself on his knees, panting heavily. After resting for a while, Xiao Xuanyuan finally recovered.

Under the hellish brutality of Elder Yao, it would be difficult for Xiao Xuanyuan's reaction ability, physical fitness, and resistance to blows not to improve. Otherwise, he would have been beaten to death by Elder Yao long ago!

With some apprehension, Xiao Xuanyuan glanced at the giant tree trunk in Elder Yao's hand and said with a troubled expression, "Elder Yao, I only recently advanced to the sixth level of Dou Qi, and the family ceremony test is the day after tomorrow. If any family member fails to reach the seventh level of Dou Qi, they will be eliminated. There's only one day left now. No matter how hard I cultivate, unless there are special circumstances, even if you kill me, Elder Yao, I still won't be able to advance to the seventh level of Dou Qi!"

After listening to Xiao Xuanyuan's words, the old doctor pondered for a moment.

"So what do you want to do?"

Xiao Xuanyuan had already thought this through clearly. He replied, "In the family ritual test, there is a rule: every family member below the seventh level of Dou Qi will have one chance to challenge a family member who has passed the ritual test and reached the seventh level of Dou Qi. There is only one chance. As long as you win, you will be considered to have passed the family ritual test, and you will be valued by the family and enter the Dou Qi Pavilion..."

"Now, I hope that Elder Yao can teach me a set of combat techniques that I can learn quickly and that are quite powerful, so that I can gain the family's recognition by challenging other clansmen in the family's ritual test."

After a moment's thought, the old doctor nodded in agreement.

With a wave of his hand, the old man named Yao sent out a scroll that shimmered with a blue light and rippled with waves. It floated out from the ring on Xiao Xuanyuan's left middle finger. Then, with another wave of his hand, the scroll flew to Xiao Xuanyuan's front.

Xiao Xuanyuan didn't stand on ceremony. He reached out with both hands, grabbed the scroll, and slowly pulled it open.

As Xiao Xuanyuan fully unfurled the scroll, bursts of shimmering light and precious brilliance appeared on it. At the very top center of the scroll, three large, azure characters were clearly imprinted.

Below the three large blue characters, rows of neat and orderly characters unique to this Dou Qi Continent appeared.

"Eight Extremes Collapse!"

Since his rebirth, Xiao Xuanyuan has lived and grown up on the Dou Qi Continent, and he is no stranger to the writing system of this continent.

Eight Extremes Collapse! A high-level Xuan-rank combat skill! A close-range attack skill. Known for its powerful offensive capabilities.

One collapse, one force, two collapses, the force can be stacked on the basis of the first collapse... When the crafting is perfected, at the last collapse, all eight forces are stacked together, the power is incredibly amazing, comparable to a low-level earth-rank fighting skill!

"I don't want the Eight Extremes Collapse!"

After reading the introduction of this high-level Xuan-rank combat skill scroll, Xiao Xuanyuan resolutely refused.

Chapter Twenty-One: The Ritual Test Begins

A day passed in the blink of an eye, and the Xiao family's ritual test began.

Under the ritual test of the Xiao family, many family members would arrive at the Xiao family's main square in advance to wait. When the sun was high in the sky at dawn, the Xiao family's ritual test would officially begin.

Having been notified in advance by his grandfather Xiao Yuntian, Xiao Xuanyuan arrived at the Xiao family's main square early in the morning.

The huge bluestone training ground was filled with over a hundred young men and women, their shouts rising into the sky.

In the training ground stands a huge black test stele. Only some powerful families are qualified to possess such a test stele, which is extremely valuable. Next to the black stone stele is still the same enthusiastic tester from a year ago.

On the high platform to the left of the training ground sat some members of the family. In the center were the patriarch Xiao Zhan, two elders, and Xiao Xuanyuan's grandfather, Xiao Yuntian.

Inside the arena, the young men and women awaiting their assessment stood nervously. Some of the family scions who usually performed exceptionally well showed little tension, while those with average or low talent displayed bewilderment and anxiety.

Third Elder Xiao Yuntian looked nervously at the various expressions on the faces of the family members present, silently thinking: "Xuanyuan boy, it's been five or six years! Every time someone mentions you these past years, it's made me lose face. You have no idea how much your grandfather has suffered these years. I heard you have a powerful patron, so I hoped you could shine this time and bring some honor to your grandfather."

Xiao Xuanyuan's gaze wandered over the high platform on the left side of the training ground. After a while, he raised his eyes and met the gaze of his grandfather, Xiao Yuntian.

Suddenly, Xiao Xuanyuan's heart skipped a beat. He understood the complex look in his grandfather's eyes. Over the years, this grandfather had indeed sacrificed so much for him... "I won't let you down," Xiao Xuanyuan silently resolved.

Turning his gaze away, Xiao Xuanyuan looked around at the group of young men and women, but he didn't see Xiao Yan... That kid was late again; his laziness hadn't changed at all. But then Xiao Xuanyuan thought, could it be that Xiao Yan was afraid of battle and wasn't coming?
