The Battle Through Heaven
Truth
Under the night sky, two shadows darted over the roofs of different houses in an agile manner. Among the few houses there was a wide street and even though it was late at night, many people still filled the street, making a commotion. Fortunately, the speed of the two human figures in the air was extremely fast. Even if one raised his head, he would only see two black lines appearing and disappearing.
Xiao Yan followed behind Hai Bo Dong and the Dou Qi in his body slowly fell down, creating a seemingly never-ending surge of energy for the muscles in his body. The tip of his foot gently pressed against the roof and his body quickly shot forward.
"Here." After Xiao Yan followed Hai Bo Dong closely as he rushed forward for a certain distance, Hai Bo Dong in front of him suddenly warned.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded his head. His forward leaning body slightly bowed. When his feet touched the ground, his palms also gently stuck to the tile, making a perfect landing. There was a slight soft sound, but other than that, there was not the slightest crack on that fragile tile.
Xiao Yan clapped his hands and stood up. He was, however, unhappy with the way he landed. If there was a Dou Ling class person below, it was likely that Xiao Yan would be found by him because of that small voice.
Xiao Yan raised his head and looked at Fa Ma and Jia Lao who were sitting comfortably on the large roof. Clearly, they had been here for quite a while and were currently smiling as they looked at Hai Bo Dong and Xiao Yan who were rushing over.
After sweeping the roof, Xiao Yan and Hai Bo Dong appeared on the side of Fa Ma and Jia Lao. The four pairs of eyes exchanged glances and all of them laughed softly.
I knew you would follow. Fa Ma smiled and said as he looked at Xiao Yan.
"I'm also quite interested in that person. He had a terrifying ability at such an age. Talent like this can be called abnormal. " Xiao Yan sighed. If that person was really as old as he appeared on the surface, it was indeed a sufficient blow to others. Looking at the deft manner he showed when refining medicine, it seemed like he should be around a tier four alchemist. A level four alchemist was seventeen years old. Xiao Yan clicked his tongue. Back then, when Gu He reached tier four alchemist, he was almost thirty. But this person was about half his age.
If his age was correct, it would be what kind of frightening person he was once he gradually grew older in the future. Level seven? Or maybe level eight. This kind of level was basically enough to stand at the peak of the Dou Qi continent!
Even the current Xiao Yan had just stepped into the tier three alchemist level. This only happens because ‘Fire Green Lotus Core’. When comparing the two, the great distance between them caused people to be astonished.
"It shouldn't be possible." Seeing Xiao Yan's shocked face, Fa Ma shook his head and voiced his thoughts, "If there really was a genius appearing within the Chu Yun Empire, there would have been a commotion long ago. There is no way we are not receiving the slightest news. After all, the news of a seventeen year old talented alchemist would be really annoying. "
"Hey, why are you guessing randomly here. Let's hurry and investigate. If you are really agitated, then "Jia Lao at the side chuckles and her hand does a horizontal cut. For such a powerful person, he had almost no emotional fluctuation when killing someone. Killing people for them is like killing a chicken. He was in a realm so deep that Xiao Yan could not stop smiling bitterly.
"Ke Ke, let's go." Fa Ma smiled and nodded without voicing any disapproval. Evidently, he secretly admitted that this was an act that was not impossible. He smiled at Hai Bo Dong and Xiao Yan, and took the lead in moving his body, flashing towards the luxurious inn in the south of the city.
As he looked at the three flashing human figures in front of him, Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment before he started following them up close. That person has no connection whatsoever with him. If the man is killed, let it be. After all, Xiao Yan did not have a good impression of that person. He's not a bad guy. If others did not offend him, he would not offend others. However, when faced with people who had nothing to do with him, Xiao Yan was still able to reach a state of indifference.
Their quick movements this time continued for a few minutes before stopping with a waving motion from Fa Ma in front.
"The man now lives here." Fa Ma landed on the roof without the slightest abnormal sound. When his gaze watched Xiao Yan rush over, he suddenly waved his sleeve and a gentle force covered the point where Xiao Yan landed. This time, the latter did not produce the slightest sound.
Xiao Yan nodded thankfully towards Fa Ma before quietly standing by Hai Bo Dong's side. He knew that on such occasions, he only needed to be a spectator.
"Hey, this guy seems to have already made some preparations." Jia Lao suddenly laughed coldly. At this moment, a dot in front of his feet had a very fine black line stretched out. Xiao Yan looked over only to find that two small black-colored bells were hung at either end of the black line.
Small tricks. A hand waved and a ferocious strength quietly floated in the air. The two black-colored little bells did not even make the slightest sound when they were shaken to nothing.
"Allow me." Hai Bo Dong smiled. His wrinkled hands that were like rotten wood slowly stretched out from his sleeves. A faint white-colored fog enveloped his hands. The ice-cold air caused the surrounding temperature to instantly decrease significantly.
As he pressed his palm gently down, a white-colored mist covered the tiles. Eventually, it quickly began to spread outward. In an instant, it enveloped the entire roof.
"Surf!" Hai Bo Dong once again shouted softly. Xiao Yan suddenly experienced a strange consciousness. This vast expanse of white and thin ice was actually starting to become an illusion. In one instance, a vast room was projected on thin ice, like a film being played, printing all the bodies inside it clearly onto the ice sheet.
After he finished all of this, Hai Bo Dong patted his hand. He looked at Xiao Yan's astonished face and could not help but smile and explain, "This is just a small trick. I used the cold air to rush into the room. After that, it merged into ice shards that were not easy to find. Finally, the reflection of these ice shards will project everything inside. "
Really brilliant control over the ice. Xiao Yan praised.
"It's just a little trick and it only has this little effect. It's not worth mentioning. " Hi Bo Dong smiled as he waved his hand. Although this was what he said with his mouth, Hai Bo Dong did not hide the pride on his face.
Smiling, Xiao Yan turned his gaze to the ice layer under his feet. Right now, the room was empty of anyone. It seemed like the gray-robed young man had not returned yet.
"Let's wait." As soon as he said these words, Fa Ma sat cross-legged on the ice sheet, closed his eyes and rested.
Xiao Yan smiled bitterly and nodded. He can only sit. When he touched the ice sheet, he did not feel the slightest cold air. It seemed like the low temperature in the ice had been suppressed by Hai Bo Dong. Immediately, Xiao Yan once again thought of his ability to control ice.
As Xiao Yan and the others each became silent, the roof descended into silence. When this silence lasted for almost half an hour, the door of the room inside the ice sheet suddenly moved. Hai Bo Dong, whose eyes were tightly closed, first felt something and opened it. He pressed his hand towards Fa Ma and Jia Lao beside him, who also sensed something. After which, he lowered his head and looked at the ice mirror.
After the door of the room was moved, a gray-robed person slowly walked in. The gentle young man's face was that of a dark horse that had become the most shocking person in the Grand Meeting today.
Looking at the gray-robed man who had just entered, Xiao Yan involuntarily held his breath. He did not dare to make the slightest movement with his body as his eyes stared intently at every move of the other party.
As soon as the gray-robed person entered the room, he did not commit any strange actions. He closed the door properly and washed randomly before sitting cross-legged on the bed to adjust his condition.
Xiao Yan slightly furrowed his brows at the ordinary actions of the gray-robed young man. He licked his lips, turned his head and looked at Hai Bo Dong's three-man group that was still waiting quietly. Xiao Yan could only continue to turn his gaze down and patiently wait.
It was a late night after an hour had passed. The gray-robed youth, who was adjusting his condition, suddenly opened his eyes. His dark and cold gaze slowly swept across the entire room. After which, he got off the bed and gently closed all the windows in the room. Finally, his hands were placed behind his back as he raised his head and swept his gaze to every corner of the room, performing a detailed scan of the beams above.
Standing on the roof, Xiao Yan stared at the gray-robed young man who raised his head and scanned the beams. He could not help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. The moment one could see his interior using a layer of ice, it was as if the gray-robed young man was staring at their group darkly and coldly as they watched him.
However, fortunately this was an illusion from Xiao Yan's side. The ice fragments that Hai Bo Dong had repaired were in a very secret location. Therefore, as soon as he swept his gaze once, the gray-robed young man heaved a sigh of relief.
"Huh, Bad Big Meeting. Once I get the champion position here, I will make sure that the reputation of the Jia Ma Empire Alchemist Association is humiliated. Once the association lost the trust of the alchemists, it would be finished! " The gray-robed young man twisted his neck and suddenly said with a cold laugh.
The gray-robed young man's hand touched his face and frowned slightly as he gently muttered something. With a flick of his palm, a pale red medicinal pill appeared within it.
Fucking ‘Pil Recovery Appearance’. Although it could allow one to return to his appearance when he was young, it only affected his surface. Ah, if not for wanting to reduce the reputation of the Jia Ma Empire Alchemist Association in another country, our association would not need to expend great efforts to refine this priceless thing. Moreover, if one wanted to recover his previous appearance, one would continue to need to eat certain medicinal pills. This kind of consumption is too big. " The gray-robed young man muttered softly. He squeezed the pale-red medicinal pill into his mouth. He then made a slight chewing motion before swallowing it into his body.
Not long after consuming the red-colored medicinal pill, the gentle face of the gray-robed young man inside the room suddenly began to tremble in a frightening manner. At the same time, his figure also grew a little taller. In just an instant, the gentle youth of around seventeen years old had shocked everyone as he turned into a middle-aged big man with a dark and cold expression.
"Right, there's something fishy about this guy." As he looked at the scene that was happening within the room, the eyes he used to stare at the ice sheet slowly widened.
