Chapter 118 Treasure Hunt Arrival
Xiao Yan stood up and performed a set of boxing in the spacious hall, stretching his muscles. The sound of wind whistling and dragon roaring could be heard faintly as he swung his hot bright yellow Dou Qi. After a moment, he put his fists away and stood up, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes. "Finally, I have become a nine-star Dou Master. Now I am only one step away from becoming a great Dou Master."

“After this period of high-intensity battles with others in the army, you have accumulated enough experience in fighting against others. The somewhat frivolous fighting spirit caused by your previous rapid promotion has also been polished. Not bad.” Yao Lao’s old voice, with a bit of satisfaction, sounded in Xiao Yan’s heart.

Hearing Yao Lao's voice, Xiao Yan's eyes showed some worry, "Teacher, how are you recovering?" Yao Lao had consumed a lot of his energy when helping him subdue the Wind Fury Dragon Flame.

Seeing Xiao Yan's worried look, Yao Lao laughed: "Haha, little guy, don't worry. Your teacher is not that fragile. I have almost recovered. Don't worry about me. Put your own mind on preparing for the Alchemist Conference."

Hearing Yao Lao's words, Xiao Yan felt relieved, but immediately had some questions, "Teacher, why do we have to participate in the Jia Ma Empire's Alchemy Conference? The prizes of the conference don't seem to be of much use to us. The recipe for the Soul Fusion Pill should not be taken seriously by the teacher."

"Of course it's because you should work harder on alchemy. The disciple I've had with me for three years is actually only a second-grade alchemist. If my old friends knew about this, they would laugh at me to death." Yao Lao said unhappily, "You will have to participate in the Alchemist Conference in Zhongzhou in the future. Since there is such an alchemy conference around you, you naturally have to participate in it to gain some competition experience. Moreover, after you win the championship, you don't need to worry about the development of the Xiao family in the Jiama Empire, and you can go out and practice with peace of mind."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan scratched his head in embarrassment. As a disciple of the continent's number one alchemist, he was still a second-grade alchemist. This was indeed a bit unreasonable. Immediately, he showed a confident smile on his face: "Teacher, you are really thoughtful. Teacher, don't worry, I will never embarrass you. I will definitely take the first place in this conference."

"It's good to have this ambition!" Yao Lao smiled, but his voice was a little more serious. "In addition, you should also practice your fine control over fighting spirit and flames. This will be of great help to your combat power, and refining medicine is the best way to practice. You have such a treasure as the strange fire, but the method you use is extremely crude. I can't stand it anymore."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan thought about his own crude control over the Wind Fury Dragon Flame, and also remembered Yao Lao's perfect control over the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, and said in a deep voice: "Teacher, don't worry, I understand."

"Haha! I'm glad you understand." Yao Lao laughed, but his voice was a little more playful. "But before that, you should first find a way to deal with the people outside. You, kid, are really lucky in love."

While Xiao Yan was puzzled, the voice of the waiter outside the palace came: "Mr. Yan Xiao, Princess Yaoye and Princess Yaoyue are here to visit."

In a mountain range with abundant energy on the road from the Black Horn Region to the Serpent Man Empire.

"Overlord Fist - Through." Zi Yan shouted, a purple light flashed in her eyes, and her fist slammed heavily on a huge purple shadow. "Bang~", a purple light and strange power burst out, and the trees and dust within dozens of meters were blown away.

The condensed purple light on the fist broke through Ziying's flame defense like a hot knife through butter, and the miraculous force directly passed through his body and was transmitted directly to Ziying's heart.

"Ah~", accompanied by a shrill cry, the purple giant's heart veins were shattered, and the Purple-Gold Blazing Bear, which exuded an aura comparable to that of a four-star Dou Huang of the human race, fell down.

Afterwards, Zi Yan calmed her breathing, turned around and waved to Lin Yuan, who was standing on the flying winged snake king and looking at this side a few hundred meters away, and shouted loudly, "Brother Lin Yuan, come here quickly, I have defeated this big guy, I want to eat bear paws tonight."

But the moment she waved, Lin Yuan's face changed suddenly, and with a flash of silver light, his figure disappeared on the spot.

At the same time, the dying Purple-Gold Blazing Bear suddenly opened his eyes angrily, and using his last bit of strength, he slapped Zi Yan from behind.

However, with a flash of silver light, Lin Yuan appeared behind Zi Yan, and with a turn, he instantly changed the attack trajectory of the Purple Gold Blazing Bear, causing its final attack to miss. Immediately, several green fire cones instantly condensed, piercing through several vital parts of the Purple Gold Blazing Bear, killing it completely.

After getting rid of the Purple-Gold Blazing Bear, Lin Yuan looked at Zi Yan again, his face solemn and his eyes extremely serious.

Seeing Lin Yuan's expression and eyes, Zi Yan seemed to remember something, and quickly walked to Lin Yuan's right side, shook his arm, and said embarrassedly: "Brother Lin Yuan, I always remember what you said about finishing off the fight, but I just forgot it."

Lin Yuan would not let this go so easily. This was a very serious matter. He said sternly, "Zi Yan, I have warned you that when a magic beast reaches the sixth level, its wisdom will be useless to humans and it will become much more cunning. Therefore, you must be careful when facing the enemy. Do not let down your guard until you are sure that the enemy is dead or has lost the ability to resist."

Zi Yan lowered her head when she heard Lin Yuan's harsh words. She didn't mean to forget Lin Yuan's words. The excitement of the battle and the joy of victory just now made her relax her vigilance for a while.

"Brother Lin Yuan, I know I was wrong." Zi Yan whispered, "I remember it and I won't make the same mistake again next time."

Seeing this, Lin Yuan's expression softened and he rubbed Zi Yan's little head. "Just remember, your behavior just now is a taboo on the battlefield and is irresponsible for your own life. If I hadn't arrived in time, you might have been injured, or even seriously injured. This kind of mistake should not be made, and it should never be made again."

"Yeah!" Seeing Lin Yuan's expression relax, he nodded quickly.

Lin Yuan walked to the body of the Purple Gold Blazing Bear, checked it, then looked at Zi Yan and said with a smile: "However, you used the 'Overlord Fist: Through' quite well just now. It seems that you have practiced it well recently. So, as a reward to you, we will eat bear paws today."

"Great~" Zi Yan was overjoyed when she heard that, and immediately exclaimed, "I really don't know what a sixth-level bear paw tastes like."

Seeing the happy Zi Yan, Lin Yuan was also somewhat excited: "In this way, the first version of the 'Transparent Art' is basically completed. The next step is to make the first version of the 'Shock Art', using the sound wave fighting technique as the starting point."

'Ba Wang Quan·Tou' is an attempt by Lin Yuan and also one of his recent achievements.

With the help of the clone technique, he had more time and energy to do what he had always wanted to do, which was to summarize his own practice.

At present, Lin Yuan is sorting out and summarizing the techniques of using strength. His initial plan is to refer to the large number of fighting skills and combat experience he has, and summarize a set of fighting methods called "Tianyuan Eight Characters". This set of fighting methods contains a variety of techniques, some for melee, and some for coordinating fighting skills.

Of course, the current 'Tian Yuan Eight Characters' is Lin Yuan's idea, and it is actually the 'Tian Yuan Three Characters' at present, because Lin Yuan has only come up with three types so far.

The "penetration" technique is one of them. It is a technique that Lin Yuan summarized to allow the power to penetrate the enemy's defense, directly attack the inside, and cause fatal damage. In addition to the "penetration" technique, Lin Yuan has also summarized: the "breaking" technique - the technique of concentrating the power on one point, attacking the weak point, and breaking through the enemy's defense or attack with a point; the "rotation" technique - focusing on the rotation and flow of power, forming a rotating vortex of power, consuming the enemy or compressing one's own power.

The Overlord Fist: Through is the combination of the Through Word Technique and the Overlord Fist. After Lin Yuan succeeded in his attempt, he taught this technique to Zi Yan, who also knew the Overlord Fist. After Zi Yan advanced, it seemed that she had added all the wisdom gained from the Warcraft's advancement to the battle. At present, although Zi Yan's usual mentality is still that of a child, her understanding and learning ability for this kind of combat technique has become much stronger. Therefore, she quickly learned what Lin Yuan taught her, the Overlord Fist: Through, and used it in actual combat.

Afterwards, Lin Yuan also planned to teach Zi Yan the few sounds of the Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds that did not require high soul power. For Zi Yan, who was a Taixu Ancient Dragon, those powerful sounds should be easy to learn and use.

Lin Yuan took out the magic core and put away the body of the Purple Gold Blazing Bear. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "The Purple Gold Blazing Bear magic core, plus the Sulfur Flame Ganoderma it guards, now we only need one more ingredient for the Fire Emperor Pill."

Then, the two of them flew towards the Winged Snake King together.

Not long after, in a beautiful valley, a series of bear-themed dishes filled with fragrance and energy were placed in front of Zi Yan and Qing Lin. In addition, Lin Yuan specially prepared a whole braised bear paw with attractive color for Zi Yan.

Zi Yan and Qing Lin looked at the delicious food in front of them, their eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Sorry for the long wait." Lin Yuan smiled proudly, "Let's eat!"

As soon as Lin Yuan finished speaking, the two of them, who had been unable to wait any longer, immediately began to feast on the food.

While enjoying the food, Lin Yuan answered some of Qing Lin's questions during her practice and told her about the 'Seven Stars'.

"Eh? Seven Stars? Young Master will be the Star Lord of Tianshu, I will be the Star Lord of Yaoguang, Sister Xiao Yixian will be the Star Lord of Tianxuan, and Queen Medusa will be the Star Lord of Tianquan?" Qing Lin swallowed the monster meat in his mouth with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Well, that's the preliminary plan." Lin Yuan smiled and nodded, "Qing'er, what do you think? Do you want to change your title? For example, Tianxuan Star Lord?"

Qing Lin waved his hand and said quickly: "No, sir. As long as I can help you, I will be very happy. I don't have to be the star master, I can give the quota to other more useful people."

"You are the most useful person in the Seven Stars Organization." Lin Yuan stared at Qing Lin and said seriously: "The establishment of the Seven Stars Organization is inseparable from your Green Snake Three Flower Pupils and the Sky Network. Therefore, as long as you are willing to help establish this organization, the Seven Star Lords will definitely reserve a seat for you."

"Qing'er, you have to remember one thing. Young Master and Qing'er are just unique names between you and me. They are not the relationship between us. The relationship between us has always been that of fellow practitioners and Taoist companions."

Qing Lin looked at Lin Yuan's serious face, and thought of the Taoist partner he had mentioned before. A warm current surged in his heart, and he nodded gently, "Yes."

"What Seven Star Master? I want to be one too." Zi Yan, who was eating seriously, heard the conversation between Lin Yuan and Qing Lin and shouted excitedly.

"I forgot there's a little girl here who likes to join in the fun." Lin Yuan stroked his forehead and thought for a moment, "Okay, Zi Yan, since you're interested, then join me in being the Star Lord of Tianshu, and I'll be your deputy."

"Great~" Zi Yan cheered.

After the group had eaten and drunk their fill, Lin Yuan carefully studied the next itinerary. Afterwards, the three of them rode on the Winged Snake King to leave this energy-rich mountain range and fly to the next mountain range. The rare medicinal herbs here had already been collected by Lin Yuan with Zi Yan's special treasure-hunting ability.

This time, Lin Yuan did not choose the previous route to the Gama Empire, but chose a route with more mountains but leading directly to the Snake Empire.

During the journey, whenever they encountered a mountain with abundant energy, the three of them would land, rest, and search for treasures in the mountains. Under Zi Yan's guidance, they collected a lot of precious materials. The materials for the Dragon Blood Mysterious Spirit Pill and the Fire Emperor Pill were almost complete, and they even collected some materials for the Yin-Yang Dragon Mysterious Pill and the Snake Clan's Heavenly Soul Melting Blood Pill.

In the process of treasure hunting, they would naturally fight against some powerful monsters in the mountains, which Lin Yuan regarded as a part of his training. He took Zi Yan and Qing Lin with him, selected suitable opponents, and honed their fighting spirit and fighting skills through a large number of battles, practiced various tactics, and honed their cooperation under the Sky Dome Network.

In this way, the three flew over mountains full of energy, collecting natural treasures while rushing on the road, and honing themselves through battles. Sometimes, Lin Yuan would even choose to explore mountains that looked ferocious. According to experience, the more ferocious the mountains, the more good things there were.

However, this way of traveling is also quite dangerous. After several people encountered a seventh-level magic beast, they were lucky that it was a magic beast that had just entered the seventh level. Qinglin used the beast essence gathering array that had already achieved some success. Lin Yuan personally took charge of the array to deal with it and harvested a seventh-level magic core.

But after that, they became more restrained and cautious. When they came across a place where Zi Yan felt there was a great treasure, Lin Yuan would carefully explore it with his soul perception, and Qing Lin would control his followers to explore. If they found a dangerous aura inside, they would bypass it. But Lin Yuan would mark the corresponding location on the map and record the relevant information, hoping that it would come in handy in the future.

The three of them had a very interesting journey as they kept on traveling and searching for various treasures from heaven and earth, but it took a little longer. With the speed of the Winged Snake King and the support of the elixir, if they flew at full speed, it would take only one month to reach the Serpent Man Empire. But this time, it took them nearly two months.

However, although it took a long time, the gains were not small. Not only did they harvest a large number of natural treasures, but after a lot of fighting in the mountains, the three people's auras were much more fierce and dangerous than two months ago, and they also made a lot of progress in actual combat. At the same time, everyone's cultivation also improved a little.

Lin Yuan's fighting spirit was honed and solidified in a large number of battles, and he also stepped into the peak of the four-star Douhuang, and was only one opportunity away from a breakthrough. In addition, with the help of his clone, he also gained a lot in various research areas.

After Zi Yan digested a large amount of natural treasures, her aura was strong enough to rival that of a three-star Dou Huang.

Qinglin broke through two stars and became a six-star Dou Wang. Moreover, after her cultivation level increased, she was able to subdue more monsters. At the end of this journey, she had two sixth-level and three fifth-level snake monster followers. At the same time, she also completed the iteration of her followers. At present, most of her followers can contribute to the beast essence gathering array.

Looking at the endless sea of ​​sand that looked familiar, Lin Yuan's eyes shone, and he felt a little excited, "Queen Medusa, Xiao Cai, here I come."

And in a palace deep in the desert, a pair of bright eyes slowly opened.
