Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master.

"Otherwise what?" Yunshan said, somewhat speechless. "Does it have to be like this? Cough cough."

Yunshan coughed, then rubbed his eyes to make them redder, and slightly messed up his neatly combed hair.

"The Gama Empire has been peaceful for too long. A major purge is actually quite good for my Yunlan Sect. I will lead the Yunlan Sect to an unprecedented peak, a height that no previous sect leader of the Yunlan Sect has ever reached!"

Yunshan's expression was unusually manic, as if he had "gone mad," which startled Yunyun.

After finishing speaking, Yunshan tidied himself up.

"Yun'er, do you really want your teacher to look like that?"

One second Yunshan was acting strangely crazy, and the next second he became normal. This ups and downs made Yunyun feel a little uncomfortable.

After tidying himself up, Yunshan waved his sleeve and said, "If I hadn't broken through to the Dou Zong level, I might have had this thought. Now I've seen how wide the sky is and how vast the earth is."

Do you remember what happened to the Xiao family a few years ago? That old man, with just a flick of his finger, subdued two Dou Zun. Such a level of skill is truly enviable. I wonder if I can cultivate to that level? I'm afraid the possibility is slim.

Yunshan said self-deprecatingly, then looked at Yunyun: "Yun'er could try to break through to that level on my behalf, and experience the view from the top."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Yun Yun nodded in agreement, then looked into the distance and smiled knowingly.

Looking at the smile on Yun Yun's face, Yun Shan guessed that a certain brat had arrived, and the old father Yun Shan sighed.

"Yun'er, I'm going to cultivate. If you want to go out, just tell Yun Ji. Anyway, with Yun Ji watching over the sect, nothing serious will happen."

"The disciple understands."

Chapter 146 Space Fair

After three months,

The Space Trade Fair is a rather unfamiliar term in Zhongzhou. Across the entire continent, only top powers and strong individuals have any information about it.

This so-called space trade fair didn't have a specific organizer at the beginning, but after all, everything needs rules and checks and balances.

Therefore, as the space trading market gradually expanded, it was eventually maintained by three sects that were not particularly well-known in normal times joining forces.

These three sects are: Earth Path Sect, Void Profound Gate, and Treasure Appraisal Mountain.

In terms of reputation, these three sects are probably not as well-known as the Four Directions Pavilion, but in terms of strength, they are probably no less than the Two Sects and the Three Valleys.

The Central Plains is full of hidden talents. Some seemingly inconspicuous and low-key sects also possess extremely strong strength and influence. It's just that due to their sectarian style, they prefer to act discreetly and have never been exposed in the open in the Central Plains.

But don't underestimate their strength just because they keep a low profile. At least Xiao Li learned from Elder Tianyin that all three sects have Transcendent Dou Zun, and the ones in charge of the auctions are all Transcendent Dou Zun, ranging from Ninth-Rank Dou Zun to Fourth-Rank Dou Zun.

The Heavenly Sound Elder speculated that these three sects had a true Dou Sheng (Battle Saint) behind them, whose strength was considerable, and even the arrogant Soul Palace was unwilling to provoke them.

The venue for the Space Trade Fair is located in a desolate desert in the northeastern region of Zhongzhou. On ordinary days, sandstorms rage here, making it completely uninhabited and extremely barren.

But no one could have imagined that this place, which even wild beasts would not want to set foot in, was actually the venue for the highest-level trade fair in Zhongzhou!

. . . . . .

"Is this it?" Xiao Li asked the old man Tianyin beside him.

"Yes, this is it. Why are you so surprised by the sights here, since this is your first time attending the Space Trade Fair?" Elder Tianyin said with a smile.

"Indeed, there are some, but I can still sense quite a few powerful auras." Xiao Li's soul power swept over them, and the weakest was a two-star Dou Zun, while the strongest seemed to be about the same as the Heavenly Sound Elder beside him.

The old man Tianyin stroked his beard and said, "Let's go. This is just the beginning. Once we go inside, we'll see what it means to be surrounded by powerful figures. Someone like me, a half-saint, is nothing special. You might even see a true fighting saint."

Xiao Li nodded: "Looks like I'll have to keep a low profile."

The old man Tianyin smiled faintly and said, "That's not necessary. Don't you know that you, Wang Li, are very famous on this continent?"

Xiao Li shook his head: "I don't know."

The old man Tianyin snorted: "If it weren't for the fact that I and Yin Gu still have enough deterrent power, you would have been snatched away by another sect long ago. You don't know that I've already fought with several old guys because of you."

Xiao Li exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? Am I that popular? How come I didn't know?"

"Hey, you'll find out soon enough. Let's go," Elder Tianyin urged.

Three people from Yin Valley came to participate in the Space Trade Fair this time. Tianyin Elder led the team, Xiao Li and Yun Yun followed, Tianyinzi was stationed in the Sound Realm, and Wang Ming and Su Wanyin were taking care of the children.

Elder Tianyin led Xiao Li and Yun Yun to a sand mountain, where there was a spatial wormhole a hundred feet in size. Many powerful figures entered this spatial wormhole one after another.

"This is the entrance to the trade fair. It's an independently constructed space, and only a Dou Sheng level expert could create such a space, just like our Sound Realm," Elder Tianyin continued.

"Let's go."

Elder Tianyin was the first to enter the spatial black hole. Xiao Li and Yun Yun exchanged a glance, then held hands and entered the spatial black hole together.

Upon entering the black hole, Xiao Li and Yun Yun felt their vision go black for a moment, followed by bursts of light and the sound of clamor.

Upon closer inspection, the world before them had transformed into the shape of a small town. The town wasn't large, but it was quite lively. The surrounding sky was a hazy gray, with faint, violent spatial fluctuations emanating from it.

The Heavenly Sound Elder stroked his beard and smiled, saying, "This is Space Town, the location of the Space Trade Fair. The area of ​​this space is about the same as our Sound Realm, which is quite spacious as a trading venue."

Take a look around first; there are almost no substandard items here, mostly rare and high-quality goods.

Xiao Li nodded and pulled Yun Yun to look around the street. On both sides of the street, there were some blue stone platforms. On the stone platforms, there were some scrolls, jade bottles, and even weapon magic cores floating. A faint light emanated from these things, indicating that they were not ordinary items.

Behind the stone platform, several figures sat cross-legged. Each of them possessed a powerful and long-lasting aura, clearly indicating that they were not to be trifled with.

"Blood Demon Hand, a high-level Earth-rank combat skill."

"Thousand Waves Technique, a high-level Earth-rank cultivation method."

"Zongyuan Pill, a mid-grade seventh-rank pill."

"Snow Bone Ginseng".

"Eternal Green Vine".

. . . . . .

Xiao Li's eyes lit up when he saw these things. He had refined a lot of pills for this Space Trade Fair, which took place three months before the fair began.

Xiao Li and Wang Ming worked together to refine a lot of Grade 8 pills. The highest grade was Grade 8 with eight colors, and the lowest grade was Grade 8 with three colors. Xiao Li basically refined all the pills he could.

Three months of intensive alchemy left Xiao Li and Wang Ming exhausted, but the gains were also significant. This intense alchemy not only made their battle qi more solid, but also greatly improved their alchemy skills.

It was all worth it. Xiao Li felt that his alchemy skills were now unmatched among eighth-grade alchemists, such as the first place winner of the previous Pill Competition, Venerable Tianhe.

After Xiao Li broke through to the Dou Zun level, he went to Tianhe Mountain to compete with Tianhe Venerable in alchemy again. In the end, Xiao Li won a great victory, which made Tianhe Venerable quite depressed.

However, it was just a bit frustrating; the two remained close friends despite their age difference.

. . . . . .

At this moment, Xiao Li and Yun Yun were looking at all sorts of rare treasures, cultivation techniques, and fighting skills in this small town. Xiao Li was only lacking the Heavenly Rank, and he didn't care about anything else. The Xiao family's cultivation techniques and fighting skills were now sufficient.

Furthermore, Ancestor Xiao Kong had his own ideas. He wanted all future members of the Xiao family to cultivate the Xiao clan's Foundation Establishment Technique, replacing all the other miscellaneous techniques.

"Hmm?" Xiao Li suddenly felt Yun Yun's hand tighten, and then looked in the direction Yun Yun was facing.

Xiao Li saw a moon-white sword on the stone platform. The blade was slender and elegant, its entire surface sparkling and dazzling, like a work of art. Yet, this beautiful and dazzling sword, seemingly a work of art, faintly exuded a fierce and bloodthirsty aura.

"Hmm? It seems to have more than just a fierce aura; it also has a hint of domineering intent!" Xiao Li stared at the sword, his perfected spiritual realm soul covering it.

"Yun'er, do you want it?" Xiao Li asked.

Yun Yun's gaze was drawn to the precious sword, and she hesitated for a few seconds before nodding.

Xiao Li slowly stepped forward and looked behind the stone platform. There, an old man with a sallow complexion and a gaunt face was leisurely lying on a recliner, showing no intention of greeting Xiao Li.

"Sir, how much is this sword?" Xiao Li asked with a faint smile.

The old man slightly raised his eyes and then closed them again, turning his body to the other side, his back to Xiao Li and Yun Yun.

"Two Grade 8 pills that have undergone four-color pill lightning, no bargaining."

"Two grade eight four-color pills? The old man isn't joking?" Xiao Li frowned.

"Take it or leave, don't disturb my sleep." The old man scratched his backside, his tone extremely perfunctory.

Chapter 147 Famous Sword Abyss Rainbow

"Hiss—" Xiao Li felt a toothache. How could there be such a seller? After sensing the old man, Xiao Li realized that he seemed to be an eight-star Dou Zun with considerable strength. He certainly had the right to be arrogant.

Xiao Li looked at Yun Yun, whose gaze was fixed on the sword. Then she looked at Xiao Li, opened her mouth but didn't say anything. However, Xiao Li understood the lip movements: "Buy!"

"Ahem, sir, what's so special about this sword? Is it worth two Rank 8 Four-Color Pills?" Xiao Li asked.

"Hmm? Aren't you leaving yet?" The old man turned around and got off the recliner. He was over two meters tall, with several hideous scars on his neck, and exuded a remarkable aura.

"Huh?" The old man stared at Yun Yun, and a sword intent emanated from his body as he rushed towards Yun Yun.

Yun Yun's eyes narrowed, and she also exuded a remarkable sword intent that clashed with the old man's sword intent. The clash of the two sword intents directly caused several scratches to appear on the bluestone platform.

"Such a powerful sword intent, no wonder you know your stuff so well. Since we are both sword cultivators, I may tell you. This sword is called Yuanhong, formerly known as Canya. It was forged from meteorite iron from outer space and is extremely powerful. However, this sword is also extremely ferocious, not only injuring enemies but also devouring its master."

Later, it was acquired by the Heavenly Crippled Sword Saint, who fused over a dozen metals to reforge the broken tooth sword. This not only diminished its ferocity but also greatly enhanced its power. Furthermore, he adorned it with various treasures, making the sword not only incredibly powerful but also remarkably magnificent. He then named it Yuanhong!

After the old man finished speaking, he picked up Yuanhong and drew it from its sheath.

Screech—

A crisp buzzing sound rang out, followed by a remarkable sword aura emanating from Yuanhong. This sword aura was sometimes cold, sometimes hot, sometimes fierce, and sometimes domineering.

"What a fine sword!" Yun Yun commented, her gaze fixed on the sword.

The old man smiled faintly and said, "You have good taste! However, although the ferocity of this Abyss Rainbow Sword has been greatly diminished, it is also difficult to control. It has been waiting for a suitable master. I wonder if you are up to the task?"

chant—

The old man sheathed Yuanhong and then handed the sword to Yunyun. Yunyun held Yuanhong in her hand, closed her eyes, and felt the 'emotions' of Yuanhong.

Yun Yun closed her eyes and sensed Yuan Hong. After about half a minute, she opened her eyes, pulled Yuan Hong out, and then swung her sword towards the sky. An amazing sword aura swept across the sky, attracting the attention of countless powerful figures.

"Yuanhong? Please give me your guidance!" Yun Yun looked at Yuanhong in her hand, then sheathed it and held it in her hand.

Xiao Li looked at Yun Yun with a blank expression, scratching his head, not knowing what to say.

"Ahem~ Pills!" the old man sneered.

Xiao Li's lips twitched: "I thought you'd see a beautiful woman with a fine sword and give it away for free? Here you go."

Xiao Li placed the two jade bottles on the bluestone platform. The old man picked up the jade bottles, checked them one by one, and put them away after finding no problems.

"You're here to do business, of course. Giving me two Rank 8 Four-Color Pills at once, you do have some skill. This Yuanhong Sword is definitely worth more than its price."

"But your face looks familiar, I feel like I've seen it somewhere before, but I can't remember what it's called." The old man looked at Xiao Li's face, feeling like he had forgotten something very important.

Yun Yun's commotion had attracted a lot of attention, and suddenly someone exclaimed, "Isn't that Master Wang Li, who came in second place at the last Alchemy Competition?"

"Master Wang Li? That genius who refined an eighth-grade pill with the cultivation of a Dou Huang?"

"Yes, yes, that's him! He looks exactly like the portrait!"

Xiao Li's identity was instantly exposed, attracting countless eyes, and some even took out portraits to compare.

This was Xiao Li's first time experiencing the feeling of being a big star, and he never expected that he, a mere eighth-grade alchemist, would become so famous.

Xiao Li's fame is not because he is an eighth-grade alchemist. Although eighth-grade alchemists are rare, which strong person who can come to the Space Trade Fair has not seen an eighth-grade alchemist?

Xiao Li is no ordinary eighth-grade alchemist; he is a prodigy who can refine eighth-grade alchemy even at the Douhuang realm. Moreover, at the Pill Gathering, he refined an eighth-grade four-colored pill in full view of everyone! His skill amazed the entire audience!

Who wouldn't want to recruit such a genius alchemist? Many powerful forces have already tried to extend offers to Xiao Li, but they have all been blocked by Yin Gu.

Not long after the Dan Conference ended, Yin Gu released the news that 'Wang Li' was Yin Gu's holy son!

This news shocked many powerful forces. The Holy Son and Holy Daughter of Yin Valley were being groomed as the next Valley Master, which shows how much Yin Valley values ​​Wang Li!

Some busybodies even compared Xiao Li to the 'deceased' Medicine Venerable. Xiao Li's achievements at the Pill Gathering were exactly the same as those of the Medicine Venerable back then. Both possessed different kinds of fire and both refined eighth-grade pills.

Back then, the Medicine Venerable was the object of many powerful figures' eagerness to join him. However, the Medicine Venerable did not join any faction. Instead, he founded the Starfall Pavilion with the Wind Venerable Feng Xian and a group of confidants.

In just a few decades, the Starfall Pavilion of the Medicine Venerable has become one of the Four Pavilions alongside the old powers of Zhongzhou, namely the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, the Myriad Swords Pavilion, and the Yellow Springs Pavilion.

Now that there is a Wang Li who is comparable to or even better than the Medicine Venerable, many forces naturally want to win him over, but unfortunately, they have all been turned away by Yin Gu.

It even alarmed the old monster of the Sound Valley, Elder Tianyin. Elder Tianyin personally fought against several powerful figures. In addition, Xiao Li did not appear after the Pill Gathering, so the incident involving Master Wang Li gradually faded away.

"Oh, it's actually Master Wang Li! I was so blind to his abilities." The old man cupped his hands in greeting to Xiao Li, his attitude a stark contrast to before.

Xiao Li's eye twitched, then he pulled Yun Yun to the side of Elder Tianyin.

The old man Tianyin smiled and said, "Holy Son, you've seen it all, haven't you? A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. Hehe, let's go. I'll take you to see the real treasure. The things the Holy Son needs will only appear there."

Xiao Li and Yun Yun followed Elder Tianyin through several ancient streets to the end of Space Town, where an ancient pavilion stood, exuding a sense of vicissitude.
