The Battle Through Heaven
Event Changeover
The lush green tree branches roam above, growing from the tall trees that inhabit the forest. They looked like giant spider webs that covered the sky. Under the shade of these large trees, even sunlight had difficulty breaking through.
A ray of light pierced through the gap between the dense trees. It turned into a half-foot pillar of light as it shot down. It shone on a large group of resting human figures with legs crossed.
There are about 15 to 16 human figures in this group. All of them had rich and powerful auras, and were definitely not weaklings. Some of the people among them even had indistinct auras, making it difficult to detect their true strength. However, from the level of respect on the faces of those around, it was clear that/it was these people were the core of this group.
’’ Bang! ’’
Several muffled sounds suddenly appeared in the distant quiet forest. Immediately, the sound of physical flesh fell to the ground followed. One seemed to be able to hear a pitiful cry. However, the people sitting on the ground did not move. They ignored the pitiful screams that filled their ears. A few minutes later, several human figures emerged from the dense forest before landing on the empty ground. They kneeled to a black-robed young man and said, ” Heads, those people at the back, who are a little close, have been secretly dumped by us. ’
The black-robed young man finally opened his tightly shut eyes after hearing these words. He revealed a pair of ink-like disciples and nodded before letting out a cold laugh, ” These people are really too reckless ... First Elder, how far until we arrive at Jia Nan Academy? ‘
” If no accident happens, we might be able to reach it the day after tomorrow. ” A white-haired old man beside the black-robed youth smiled and said, ” Fortunately, we have quite a number of people by our side. Otherwise, we would be bothered by those troublesome flies until we found it hard to rest. ’
The black-robed young man also smiled. He raised his head slightly to reveal a familiar young face under the warm sunlight. This person was Xiao Yan and the people around him were people from ‘Xiao Gate’ and Jia Nan Academy who had left Black Emperor City.
Two days had passed since that great battle. During these two days, Xiao Yan's group had increased their speed as they rushed to the Jia Nan Academy. However, there was still an unrelenting number of greedy people following them despite the speed of their journey. They were like hungry wolves that stayed far away, but were still ready to act at any time if driven by a slight chance. Although quite a number of them were knocked out by the evil tactics of ‘Xiao Gate’ and Jia Nan Academy, a number of them continued to surge, acting like vampire bats that had sniffed the scent of fresh blood.
Moreover, regardless of the change from the route that Xiao Yan's group took, these people could still follow accurately... After this situation continued to occur, Xiao Yan's group could tell that/it was there must have been someone behind spurring them. Moreover, there were only a handful of people who possessed such abilities.
However, despite being stared at by many pairs of eyes, it was fortunate that/it was mostly the experts from ‘Xiao Gate’ and Jia Nan Academy had come this time. Hence, some things did not need to trouble Xiao Yan to deal with personally. Otherwise, he would definitely be tired due to the countless number of people and he would probably not be able to avoid losses.
’Although the person chasing us is not lacking in expert individuals, an expert on the same level as Han Feng has yet to appear. Therefore, we were still able to manage despite being a little annoying. ’’ The Little Fairy Doctor by his side softly spoke.
’’The old man will not give up easily. He must have wanted the Bodhisattva Body Transformation Saliva. Therefore ... ’’ Xiao Yan shook his head as his finger gently rubbed his Storage Ring. A strange expression flashed in his eyes. It immediately disappeared as Xiao Yan's gaze darted to the large man who was carefully observing the activity outside the forest. He said in a deep voice, ” Alright, let's continue our journey. Big Yao, you must lead some experts from ‘Xiao Gate’ to guard our backs. If anyone approaches, attack only, but retreat if you encounter an enemy you cannot defeat. ’
” Yes, chief! ” Big Yao nodded when he heard Xiao Yan's words.
Xiao Yan exchanged glances with Su Qian and the others after giving instructions. They quickly got up and waved their hands. Many human figures began to soar as they swept through the forest like ferocious leopards. After which, they quickly rushed out of the forest. Behind them, Big Yao led some experts from ‘Xiao Gate’ and slowly followed. He carefully observed the surroundings …
The journey quickly becomes shorter amid repeated pursuits. However, the experts from the ‘Black-Corner Region,’ who were chasing after Xiao Yan's group, seemed to be aware that/that they were getting closer to the Jia Nan Academy. Soon, their hearts began to feel uneasy and uneasy. If Xiao Yan's group was allowed to enter the Jia Nan Academy, they would really lose the opportunity to snatch the item. Hence, more and more greediness of people overcame their excuses as they began to unleash various sneak attacks on Xiao Yan's group. However, it all ended in a miserable death. During one of the sneak attacks, there were even three expert Dou Huangs who had joined hands just to leave one corpse. The other two fled sadly after being seriously injured. It was not an easy task to snatch something from the hands of two elite Dou Zongs.
After the three elite Dou Huangs suffered a great defeat and retreated, a number of greedy people calmly woke up slightly. Now, they finally suddenly understood that/that there were two genuine Dou Zongs in the group that they were following, a chill slowly rose within the hearts of a sufficient number of people. Therefore, they began to quietly retreat.
The dark night covered the vast and endless mountains. The low and deep roar of the beast resounded for a long time. The faint moonlight dispersed, but it had difficulty expelling the darkness enveloping the forest.
Quite a number of fires appeared in the forest as a group of human figures, in rather tattered clothes, began to sit with their legs crossed one after another. Clearly, they had experienced quite an intense battle along the way.
Although their expressions were somewhat miserable, quite a number of people still displayed light. Once they experienced that night, they would be able to reach the Jia Nan Academy the next day. At that moment, they could feel comfortable.
’It has been very difficult for everyone these past few days. Take this medicine. It will benefit you all. ’’Xiao Yan laughs.
Joy immediately surged into everyone's eyes when they heard this. They hurriedly grabbed the medicinal pill and bowed to Xiao Yan. All of them were aware of Xiao Yan's status as an alchemist, and naturally understood that/it was an object in their hands would definitely not be ordinary.
Xiao Yan smiled. He exchanged glances with Su Qian and the Little Fairy Doctor after seeing everyone consuming medicinal pills, swiftly crossing their legs, and practicing.
” We will return to Jia Nan Academy tomorrow .. ” Finger Xiao Yan gently touched his Storage Ring as he gently muttered.
’’ These few days really make people tense. Even my old bones are somewhat unable to hold on.. ” Su Qian stretched her lazy waist and laughed.
” We've got First Elder in trouble these few days. ” Xiao Yan cupped his hands to Su Qian, but the latter simply waved his sleeve. His eyes narrowed and seemed to have entered a fake sleeping state.
’’ You have to take care of them. I will find a quiet place to learn the Dou Skill ruler technique that I recently obtained. ’’Xiao Yan waited for a while before suddenly turning to Little Fairy Doctor to give him some instructions. He then immediately got up and walked into the forest.
Xiao Yan walked through the dark forest for some time before a small stream that clearly appeared in front of him. His body moved and he appeared on a large rock beside a small river. After sweeping his gaze once, he finally sat down cross-legged. He swung his hand and a scroll of the Six Flowing Scrolling Technique Together, which he obtained from the auction, appeared in his hand.
Xiao Yan gently inhaled a breath of cold air while slowly pushing the scroll open. His attention gradually began to focus.
Other than the sound of water droplets, it was completely silent beside the small river. A cool moonlight scattered from above, covering the black-robed young man on a huge rock.
As Xiao Yan's attention was completely immersed in the scroll, the activity of the outside world was automatically isolated by Xiao Yan …
The time grAdually flowed by during the dark night, Xiao Yan maintained this posture for nearly an hour. Only after that did a strange light suddenly appear above the Storage Ring on his finger. Immediately, the jade box was shot out without warning!
A somewhat illusory layer of energy was around the jade box that had escaped from the Storage Ring. The illusion energy swayed slightly. In a breath of time, it turned into an old figure.
” Tsk tsk, chief Xiao, thank you for escorting me all the way. I'll be the old one! ‘’
That somewhat old illusory figure had just appeared when it laughed at Xiao Yan on the boulder in a strange manner. His body did not stop for a moment. With a flash, it gripped the jade box and shot towards the dark forest.
The speed of the old figure was extremely fast. In a few flashes, a fast and moving figure was near the dark forest. However, a strange faint laugh sounded behind him just as he was about to charge into the forest.
” Old Ying Shan, You really failed to survive .. ’
The old figure suddenly stiffened when he heard this voice! If you find any errors (broken links, non-standard content, etc.), please let us know so that we can fix them as soon as possible.
