Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, who was kidnapped to another world

*

About half a day later, Xiao Yan and his group completely left the mountains and forests. Then, a vast city that seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see appeared in their field of vision.

Xiao Yan had seen quite a few large cities, but compared to the city in front of him, both the Imperial City and the Black Seal City seemed rather small-scale.

The sound of wind breaking through the air above the city's outskirts was almost continuous as countless figures swept in from all directions, finally landing outside the city.

"Brother Xiao Yan, the airspace above Wanxiang City is a no-fly zone. We can only let you enter through the main gate. There are personnel from a super sect guarding this place, and everyone must abide by the rules!"

Compared to Lin Dong, who had no knowledge of the rules of the city in the core area of ​​the ancient battlefield, and Xiao Yan, whose information all came from the Tianyuan Dynasty and who was also unfamiliar with this remote area, Su Kui could be considered an expert. At least, he was the one who popularized the rules of Wanxiang City to the group.

"By the way, Brother Xiao Yan, this is your first time here, the most important thing is to get your hands on the Nirvana Seal," Su Kui suddenly said, as if remembering something.

"Nirvana Seal?" Lin Dong was taken aback and looked at Xiao Yan.

"The tickets to the final Hundred Dynasties War are divided into three levels: Heaven, Earth, and Human. In the ancient battlefield, more than 80% of the participants can only obtain the Human-level Nirvana Seal, and of the remaining 20%, 80% will obtain the Earth-level Nirvana Seal," Xiao Yan said casually.

Lin Dong nodded as if he understood, then asked, "How do you obtain the Nirvana Seal? And what determines its level? Is it based on apparent strength?"

Xiao Yan was naturally unaware of such basic common sense, so he naturally looked at Su Kui.

“In the City of Myriad Elephants, there is a Nirvana Stele. All the strong who are qualified to enter the Nirvana Ranking will have their names automatically appear on it after passing the test,” Su Kui explained. “At the same time, this Nirvana Stele will also test your strength and potential, and use this to determine what level of Nirvana Seal you should possess.”

"Potential?" Both Xiao Yan and Lin Dong were slightly moved.

“These Nirvana Steles were placed here by a super sect. Every super city like Myriad Elephant City has one,” Su Kui naturally understood what Xiao Yan and Lin Dong were thinking, and immediately said in a low voice, “According to rumors, these Nirvana Steles are all genuine Heaven-Rank spiritual treasures!”

"A Heavenly Rank Spiritual Treasure?"

Lin Dong suddenly thought of his gauntlets. Since returning to the Tianxuan Continent, he had never found suitable materials. Therefore, although the gauntlets could be upgraded, they were still in their original form.

"Brother Lin Dong, don't even think about touching this thing. Anyone who damages the Nirvana Stele will be immediately disqualified from participating in the Hundred Dynasties War, and even the dynasty behind them will be punished!" Su Kui joked.

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong smiled casually; he had no desire for the so-called Nirvana Stele.

"Alright, enough of that. Let's head over to the Nirvana Stele first," Xiao Yan interjected at the opportune moment. "We might not even be qualified to obtain a Human-level Nirvana Seal!"

Su Kui gave a wry smile. He possessed a human-level Nirvana Seal, but he couldn't see through the strength of any of Xiao Yan's five companions. In his opinion, these five should at least have obtained an earth-level Nirvana Seal, and he wouldn't have any doubts even if they ended up with a heaven-level Nirvana Seal!

So, are they really from a low-level dynasty?

As Su Kui followed the crowd into the City of Myriad Things, he couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yan, Lin Dong, and Xiao Diao, Xiao Yan, and Xiao Yuan, who were following behind them like attendants.

'Can a low-level dynasty really produce so many powerful individuals?'

About an hour later, Xiao Yan and his group finally arrived at the central area of ​​Wanxiang City.

Upon entering the central area, Xiao Yan raised his gaze and looked towards the city center, where there was a huge, towering plaza, about a hundred feet high, and the wide stone steps leading to the plaza were filled with people.

In the center of the square, a giant golden monument stands silently like a mountain peak, its surface shimmering and pulsating with golden light. The light condenses and transforms into rings of golden halos that envelop the monument.

"Is this the Nirvana Stele?" Xiao Yan exclaimed.

"Be careful, there's a Nine-Seal Heavenly Talisman Master nearby," Xiao Yan's voice rang in Lin Dong's ears as they marveled at the magnificence of the Nirvana Stele. "Seven-Yuan Nirvana Realm, Nine-Seal Heavenly Talisman Master... He's probably a disciple of some super sect. If we don't reveal ourselves directly, there shouldn't be too much of a problem."

Following Xiao Yan's gaze, Lin Dong quickly noticed a man dressed in gray in the crowd.

The gray-clad man seemed to have cultivated a special concealment technique. Although his mental strength was only at the ninth level of the Heavenly Talisman Master level, Lin Dong wouldn't have even noticed him without Xiao Yan's reminder.

Before the gray-robed man could turn his gaze over, Lin Dong raised his head at the opportune moment and shifted his gaze to the Nirvana Stele. Soon, Lin Dong found several familiar names on the stele.

Zhu Tianhuo and Mu Huang, the fire general and mountain general of the Great Qian Dynasty, are located at the slightly above the Earth level, while Qingchuan and Ye Wuqing are at the Heaven level. This is consistent with what Su Kui said earlier: a three-element Nirvana Realm cultivator can obtain an Earth-level Nirvana Seal, and the holder of a Heaven-level Nirvana Seal must be at least a four-element Nirvana Realm cultivator.

While Lin Dong was observing the Nirvana Stele, the testers in the square also received their own Nirvana Seals.

"Shall we give it a try?" Su Kui said to Xiao Yan and the others after they came down.

Xiao Yan and Lin Dong nodded with smiles, and then the group walked out and headed straight for the huge Nirvana Stele.

Upon arriving at the plaza, Su Kui was the first to place his palm on the Nirvana Stele, unleashing the full power of his Three-Element Nirvana Realm. In an instant, golden light surged, and after a series of impacts, he finally entered the Earth-level region.

"Big brother is amazing!" Su Rou's face beamed with joy upon seeing Su Kui's results.

"Hehe, little Su Rou, if his grades are considered remarkable, then wouldn't your brother Yin Sen be the prince charming in your eyes?"

Just as Su Rou finished speaking, a jarring, teasing voice came from the side.

Looking back, it was Ginmori of the Ginki Dynasty, the guy who had been tested in the square earlier, and ranked ninth in the prefecture-level region.

"Yin Sen, ninth level of Earth Rank?" After glancing at the glib-tongued guy, Xiao Yan placed his hand directly on the cold Nirvana Stele.

An extremely dazzling golden light surged up, its intensity as rich as a golden sun!

The sudden burst of bright light drew countless gazes, and even the gray-clad man in the crowd looked over in surprise.

In the blink of an eye, that golden light rushed into the Earth-level region, then entered the top ten, and broke through the top five...

Just when everyone thought the golden light was about to enter the Heavenly Realm, it suddenly stopped, slowly contracted, and finally gradually transformed into two large golden characters—

Xiao Yan!

"Sigh!" The fact that they couldn't witness the appearance of a new Heaven-level Nirvana Seal made the people around them sigh subconsciously. Then, countless burning gazes focused on Xiao Yan. Everyone wanted to know what kind of mysterious person this person who had won the first place in the Earth-level was!

As for Ginmori...

When Jin Guang entered the top five of the Earth-level region and showed no signs of slowing down, he froze on the spot with a grim expression.

He did want to leave, but the ambiguous smile on Xiao Diao's face made him give up the idea of ​​leaving.

"Xiao Yan? I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before..."

After seeing the name ranked first on the Nirvana Monument's top-tier list, some people in the crowd suddenly frowned and fell into deep thought.

"Hey, you know what, I think I've heard that name before... I think it was someone from some super dynasty?"

"A super dynasty? No way? I seem to remember he had some kind of conflict with someone from a super dynasty..."

"Oh, right, is it that...that Great Qian Dynasty?"

"The Great Qian Dynasty? Oh, right, I was wondering where I'd heard the name Xiao Yan before. He's the one who defeated Feng Jiang of the Great Qian Dynasty, isn't he?"

With reminders from those whose names sounded familiar, some people gradually remembered where they had heard the name Xiao Yan before. However, precisely because they remembered where they had heard the name Xiao Yan before, many more people felt puzzled—

"He defeated the Wind General of the Great Qian Dynasty? Then why is he only ranked at the Earth level? Even among the Heaven level, the Wind General Qingchuan is considered to be of average level, right?"

"Perhaps it was because he used the Nirvana Demon Flame at the time?" someone speculated. "I heard that some people can control part of the Nirvana Demon Flame when they undergo the Nirvana Tribulation. I heard that he only transferred the Nirvana Demon Flame into Feng Jiang's body at the time. Feng Jiang only conceded defeat in order to expel the Nirvana Demon Flame from his body."

"That's possible..."

"Speaking of which, if this person is Xiao Yan, then isn't that handsome guy next to him Lin Dong, the one who defeated Lin, Huo, and Shan generals in one move?"

"That can't be right. I heard that the guy who defeated those three was a pretty ordinary-looking guy... Was it the one in the blue clothes?"

"So, that guy named Lin Dong, whose appearance I don't even know, must be a Heavenly-level Nirvana Seal, right? After all, unlike Xiao Yan, Lin Dong defeated those three head-on!"

……

Although the topic initially focused on Xiao Yan, it gradually shifted and quickly turned to where Lin Dong would rank on the Heavenly Ranking.

Those in front of the Nirvana Monument could clearly hear the whispers among the crowd below.

Therefore, Yin Sen, who was already panicking because Xiao Yan had taken first place on the Earth-level ranking list, became even more trembling when he learned that the ordinary-looking person next to him was Lin Dong, who had defeated a four-yuan Nirvana Realm cultivator and two three-yuan Nirvana Realm cultivators in one move.

As for Su Kui, Su Rou, and Liu Ya, although they were equally shocked that their companions, who had traveled with them for half a day, were actually capable of defeating a powerful general of a super dynasty, they also knew Xiao Yan and the others' personalities after spending time together, so they weren't too worried that Xiao Yan and the others actually wanted to take away the spiritual seal from Su Rou...

Or rather, if they really wanted to take the Spirit Seal, they could have done so last night; there was absolutely no need to bring them all to this Myriad City.

Lin Dong, at this moment, was somewhat helpless—

Although the Nirvana Seal seemed very important, he was prepared to get second place at the Earth level. In any case, no matter what role the Nirvana Seal played in the end, he was confident that he would go all the way in the Hundred Dynasties War.

As a result, before he even touched the Nirvana Stele, the people below guessed their identities. If he were to still only achieve second place at the prefectural level, it would be as if all the onlookers were fools.

After all, Xiao Yan's defeat of Qing Chuan could be explained by using the Nirvana Demon Flame to launch a sneak attack, but his defeat of three people with one palm was done under the watchful eyes of hundreds of people in the Ancient Palace!

"I didn't mean to," Xiao Yan said, suppressing a laugh, having thought their reputation hadn't reached Wanxiang City yet. "We didn't rest for very long along the way, I never imagined the news would reach Wanxiang City faster than us!"

“I know…” Lin Dong sighed helplessly, then stepped forward and placed his right hand on the Nirvana Stele.

A more dazzling golden light burst forth, and then, under the excited gaze of everyone, it began to rise wildly at an astonishing speed!

Almost in the blink of an eye, the golden light broke through the boundary between the human and earth levels, and then rushed into the top ten with unstoppable momentum!

Fifth, third, first...

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Jin Guang's ranking continued to rise. Although he paused for a moment at the barrier between the Heaven and Earth levels, he did not stop there like Xiao Yan. Instead, he successfully broke through the barrier and continued to move forward!

Of course, the golden light slowed down upon entering the Heavenly Realm, and its speed decreased further as its ranking increased. However, it still surpassed Ye Wuqing's name and stopped after climbing about ten more places. Then, the golden light contracted, transforming into two golden characters on the Nirvana Stele—

Lin Dong!

"Seventy-second in the Heavenly Rank! Only second to that Wind General from the Great Qian Dynasty!" someone who barely made it onto the last train of the Heavenly Rank list exclaimed.

"One is at the top seventy-second Heavenly Rank, one is at the top Earthly Rank, and the others aren't much worse, right? This is almost on par with some super dynasties!"

"I heard they come from a low-level dynasty... Is this really not a joke? How could a low-level dynasty produce so many geniuses?!"

……

Compared to Xiao Yan's name being listed as the number one Earth-level official on the Nirvana Stele, the crowd was even more excited at this moment. Many people even began to suspect that the so-called "Great Yan Dynasty" was actually a branch of a super dynasty, but it had not yet become a super dynasty.

"Little Mink, you guys should try it too."

Lin Dong turned around under countless gazes, a warm smile on his face, completely lacking the aura of someone who had defeated the three great generals of a super dynasty in one move and obtained the Heavenly Nirvana Seal.

Little Marten glanced at Lin Dong, his eyes full of mockery. Others might not be able to see Lin Dong's feelings at this moment, but how could he not understand?

However, now was not the time for jokes, so Xiao Diao nodded and took a step forward, casually placing his hand on the cold Nirvana Monument.

A burst of brilliant golden light erupted once more, and then with a whoosh, it forcefully surged into the top ten of the Earth-level ranks under countless incredulous gazes. Finally, it stopped behind Xiao Yan, directly suppressing the original second place. Then, the golden light condensed and transformed into the two characters "Lin Diao".

Lin Diao, second in prefecture-level city!

The whole process took no more than five seconds. The crowd in the square stared in silence at the little sable, who hadn't even completely lost its golden light before clapping its hands and lazily walking back.

Next up was Xiao Yuan, and lastly Xiao Yan.

Amidst somewhat numb gazes, two golden lights landed on the third and fourth positions of the Earth-level ranking, meaning that in less than a minute, the top four positions on the Nirvana Stele Earth-level ranking had all changed hands!

After everyone had received their respective Nirvana Seals, Xiao Yan turned around and looked at Yin Sen, who was frozen in place, neither able to move nor stay still, with a half-smile. "You seemed to have said something just now?"

Yin Sen's face alternated between pale and flushed. He had previously thought that those following Su Kui and Su Rou were just ordinary people, which was why he dared to be so arrogant. But now that all five of them had demonstrated their abilities...

"Ahem, well, I was just about to report to you on the situation of the Fengyun Dynasty," Yin Sen coughed and revealed a fawning smile, "The original number one on the Nirvana Monument Earth-level Ranking, now number five, is Luo Tong from the Fengyun Dynasty. He is extremely strong, and it is said that he is currently attempting to break through to the fourth Nirvana Tribulation. If he succeeds, the Fengyun Dynasty will gain another heavyweight powerhouse."
