Chapter 134 Undercurrent
Heavenly level martial arts, just these four words are enough to drive the world crazy.
If earth-level skills can be found in the world and are numerous, then the rarity of heaven-level skills has reached a hopeless level. Even Yao Lao, who was at his peak back then, had only heard of them. It is conceivable how difficult it is to obtain a heaven-level skill.
Moreover, even if you find it, you may not be able to practice it successfully.
Any martial arts that can reach the heavenly level must be extremely difficult to practice. If you don't have the conditions to practice, you will only kill yourself. Wanting to find a heavenly level martial arts that suits you and replace it smoothly... This is only suitable for dreaming about. There is no such a wonderful thing in the world. Even if you are very lucky and really encounter such a beautiful thing, it does not mean that you can break through to the Dou Sheng 100%.
The Heaven Grade Technique only gives you a chance to advance to the level of a Fighting Saint. Whether you can truly enter it remains to be seen.
It's true that every step is a hurdle, which blocks 99% of the top Dou Zun masters in the world, just like some people are stuck at the Dou Huang level, and the Dou Zun at the peak of the ninth level is no exception.
For a moment, Yao Lao's thoughts drifted away.
He was full of yearning for the Dou Sheng realm, and at his peak, he could already slightly touch the barrier between Dou Zun and Dou Sheng, especially when his soul realm touched the heavenly realm soul, the sense of obstruction was particularly clear. However, he was a free-spirited person back then and did not join Danta, otherwise he might have been able to get in touch with the heavenly level skills...
Thinking of this, Yao Lao shook his head. It was useless to think about the past. He stared at Yao Yan with a smile, as if he was looking at a junior, and said softly: "Boy, it may be difficult for me to reach that realm in my lifetime, but you are different. With the special Burning Decree and your own talent, that barrier cannot stop you."
"You don't need to say more about this. I've said before that I will start a new clan under my own name in the future!"
Yao Yan chuckled, his eyes determined, and whispered to himself.
"If that day ever comes, I'll probably have to take advantage of you~"
Yao Lao curled his lips and said jokingly, as a member of the Yao clan, how could he not know the four words "Dou Emperor bloodline". His Dou Emperor bloodline was extremely thin, but if Yao Yan really became the new Dou Emperor, then the thin Dou Emperor bloodline in his body would surely revive, causing his strength to increase dramatically.
Thinking of this, the smile on Yao Lao's face became even more intense. He never expected that one day he would be looking forward to a little kid breaking through to become a Dou Di in the future.
This was something he had never experienced before. After all, he was extremely proud back then. Who wasn't a child of destiny when he was young? If he wasn't talented enough, how could he have won the championship of the Alchemy Conference and become the number one alchemist in Zhongzhou.
Yao Yan did not comment, and he and Yao Lao looked at each other and smiled.
Cai Lin was completely confused. She had no idea what the two were talking about. Those topics touched upon her blind spots. The only thing she understood was the strength of the old man in front of her. The man in front of him seemed to be a powerful warrior at the peak of the Dou Zun level. He and Yao Yan were from the same family, and both of them had been expelled from the family.
Then how powerful is their family? Is it really related to the Fighting Saint?
Cai Lin pursed her red lips, her deep purple eyes showing a hint of complexity. She felt as if she was getting farther and farther away from Yao Yan. The other person was clearly right in front of her, but the distance between them was extremely far. She used to be very proud and confident, but for a moment she felt an indescribable inferiority complex. This feeling made her feel a little depressed.
Men are not the only ones who feel inferior in this world. Women are the same, especially when the other person is very close to them.
At this moment, Yuan Yi walked in slowly from outside the courtyard, and Yao Lao turned into a wisp of green smoke and floated into the Bone Inflammation Ring.
Yuan Yi did not walk in directly. He bowed respectfully first, and after getting Yao Yan's consent, he walked in slowly, with an increasingly respectful attitude: "Mr. Yao, there are already more than a dozen Dou Huangs and two Dou Huang peak masters in Black Seal City. According to this situation, it is estimated that most of the masters in the Black Horn Region will gather here..."
Having said that, he couldn't help but pursed his dry lips, and his heartbeat quickened a little.
The Black Horn Region hasn't been this chaotic for a long time. It is conceivable that once the auction is over, there will inevitably be a fierce fight outside the city. As for the final winner... Yuan Yi couldn't help but glance at the handsome young man in front of him. He had never thought that the person in front of him would be so young. Of course, this young appearance was most likely a disguise. How could there be such a young seventh-grade alchemist in the world?
Moreover, the other party's style of action was too ruthless. He even set up a trap with the Huangji Pill and the Pozong Pill, driving the entire Black Horn Region crazy.
Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle.
This is a bit too big a deal.
"No problem, I will help you keep an eye on the situation. Dou Huang dare not cause trouble in the territory of Dou Zong strongmen. Even if they want to fight, they have to go outside. It won't bring much impact to Black Seal City... Compared to this, I am more concerned about whether the Medicine Emperor has arrived?"
Yao Yan paused, his eyes moved slightly, and he asked curiously. He had also checked a lot of things about the other party these days and already knew that Han Feng had obtained the Sea Heart Flame. The other party had only refined it for a few years and his own strength was only at the two or three-star Dou Huang level. It seemed that he had regressed because of refining the strange fire, because before refining it, his strength was a seven-star Dou Huang.
In this regard, Yao Yan was certain of one thing, that Han Feng was indeed a genius, as he had actually managed to successfully practice the incomplete Burning Technique. However, it seemed that he had not completely devoured the Sea Heart Flame.
But it is also true, how can the incomplete Burning Art completely integrate the strange fire into one's body.
Only by truly successfully practicing the Burning Art can one know the peculiarity of this technique. To put it bluntly, if Yao Yan was killed at this moment, the spark of the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire would never explode from his body, because he himself is the fire, and its origin has been integrated with his body. Unless he is willing, or meets an old fellow of the level of Hunxuzi, it is difficult for outsiders to refine the strange fire in his body.
"I haven't heard any news about him yet. Ever since Han Feng refined the Sea Heart Flame, he has been hiding in Fengcheng and hasn't left the city for several years."
Yuan Yi seemed to see that Yao Yan and Han Feng were not getting along, so she spoke up.
"It doesn't matter, just do the thing at hand first~"
Yao Yan nodded slightly and spoke softly.
……
At the same time, in a hidden courtyard in Black Seal City, a middle-aged man in a black robe narrowed his eyes, a solemn look appeared on his face, and he stared at the location of the City Lord's Mansion in the distance, and said in a low voice: "I thought the old guy from the Eight Gates was dead, but I didn't expect he is still alive. Judging from this sign, it seems that his strength has improved again."
"Master, do we need to leave first?" a man in black asked.
"No need. We are not participating in this auction. We can just watch the show this time... Don't you think the auction held by the Eight Sects is very similar to the auction held by our Black Emperor Sect? This is a familiar smell. It seems that the Eight Sects are also planning to rob their enemies, hehe."
A sneer appeared on Mo Tianxing's face. In a place like the Black Horn Region, there was no need to follow the rules when doing things. He was able to be promoted to Dou Zong in a short period of time by relying on robbing thieves. He used valuable things to attract a large number of Dou Huang powerhouses, and then took away all the good things from them.
A fair trade is not as satisfying as robbery. He not only wants to take back the auctioned items, but also the other party's life and property. The Black Horn Region is a huge breeding ground for poisons. The strong will become stronger, and the weak will die.
"Dad, do you mean that the auction held by the Eight Gates is a conspiracy?" A young man whose strength barely reached the Douhuang level asked. This man was Mo Tianxing's biological son, Mo Ya, who followed Mo Tianxing out to see the world.
"Nine out of ten, otherwise the disturbance wouldn't be so big. I just don't know who they are trying to hook. Quite a few strong men have been attracted here this time, even Elders Jin and Yin have been attracted here. Once these two join forces, I can't say that I will definitely win!"
Mo Tianxing said slowly, his tone sounding a bit heavy.
He had come into contact with those two old guys before. The skills they practiced were extremely strange. Their fighting spirits could be integrated with each other and they could perform combined skills, making them comparable to Dou Zong masters in a short period of time. This was quite tricky.
There was a pause.
He continued, "I am not the only Dou Zong expert attracted here this time. From what I sensed, there are two of them lying in ambush... Obviously someone has also set their sights on the Po Zong Dan, or maybe, like me, he has seen through the clues and wants to reap the benefits!"
His tone became more serious: "If the situation is not good, you should leave first and do not stay here for long. I have a feeling that many people will die this time. Maybe after this, the entire Black Horn Region will have to be reshuffled!"
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, the two nodded in response.
……
the other side.
The two elders of Canaan College also hid in Black Seal City like Mo Tianxing, preparing to participate in the auction. Both the Royal Extreme Pill and the Sect Breaking Pill were extremely attractive to them, so they took the risk to come here to participate in the auction.
The identities of these two people are also very special, they are the vice-president of the outer courtyard, Hu Qian, and the third elder of the outer courtyard. Both of them are at the Douhuang level, and the former has stayed at the peak of the Douhuang for several years.
"Dean, if the Great Elder knew that we sneaked out this time, we would definitely be criticized."
The third elder of the outer courtyard said with a smile.
"Do you think the old guy doesn't know? He pretends not to know. In fact, the old guy is also quite interested in this auction, but he can't say it openly, so he can only borrow you and me to participate~" Hu Qian raised his eyebrows when he heard this, then curled his lips and said with an unhappy look on his face.
The two have known each other for nearly a hundred years, and can be said to know each other inside out. Ever since Su Qian became the grand elder, his manners have become more and more formal. After all, he has a group of students and teachers watching him, and he has to set an example himself. How could he knowingly commit a crime? In this case, it can only be him, the vice-president, who made the mistake.
"You made a mistake and blamed it on me."
Along with a laughing voice, an old man in black robe walked out slowly from the side. The space around him was rippling slightly, as if he had merged with the space. His feet stood in the void, and he was actually a true Dou Zong master.
This person is naturally Canaan College's Inner Court Great Elder Su Qian, a genuine two-star Dou Zong.
"Greetings, Great Elder!" Upon seeing this scene, the third elder of the outer courtyard hurriedly bowed and saluted.
Hu Qian was not surprised by this, and even said sarcastically: "Since you broke through to Dou Zong, even your walking has been silent. If I didn't know you very well, I would be scared by you!"
Show off, just show off!
Isn't it just a breakthrough to Dou Zong? When he gets the Po Zong Dan, he can also enter this level.
"Okay, I won't talk nonsense with you anymore. Something is wrong this time. There is something wrong with this Black Seal City. I just did a rough investigation and found that there is a strong soul force at the location of the City Lord's Mansion. It should be a Dou Zong strongman, and this person is definitely not the old guy from the Eight Gates. It is obvious that someone is using the Eight Gates to set up a trap!"
Su Qian waved his hand, too lazy to talk nonsense with Hu Qian. He straightened his face and spoke in a firm voice.
"Since it's being auctioned, the pills can't be fake. Why don't we try to bid for it? Then I'll see who dares to attack Canaan Academy!" Hu Qian didn't care when he heard it. Instead, he was eager to make a move. It was impossible to be afraid. Canaan Academy was a giant in the Black Horn Region. Just relying on the two old immortals in the inner courtyard, they were enough to look down on the crowd and stand firm.
"It's hard to say. Just the four words Canaan College can't stop those desperate criminals."
Su Qian shook his head and spoke slowly.
Hu Qian was no longer in the mood to joke. Looking at Su Qian's serious expression, he knew the importance of the matter. He pondered for a moment and said, "... Let's see first. If the situation is not good, we will give up."
"That's great. I want to know who is behind the Eight Gates. When did such a strong man appear in the Black Horn Region? He has caused chaos in the entire Black Horn Region as soon as he arrived. I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse for Canaan Academy... And Han Feng from Fengcheng, this guy is also ambitious and should not be underestimated."
Su Qian said in a heavy tone that since Canaan Academy was established in the Black Horn Region, there were some things that could not be avoided, especially the competition among the major forces in the Black Horn Region. Rather than watching the Black Horn Region being unified, he hoped that the Black Horn Region would maintain the status quo.
"Han Feng? It is said that this boy is the direct disciple of the Medicine Master. I wonder why the disciple of the Medicine Master came to the Black Horn Region!"
When Hu Qian heard this, he seemed to understand Han Feng a little and frowned.
"It is rumored that Medicine Venerable's death was very strange. Han Feng probably stayed in the Black Horn Region to avoid being tracked down by others. That Medicine Venerable had many good friends back then..."
Su Qian's eyes moved slightly and he spoke in a low voice.
The Black Horn Region is an extremely special area. Due to its geographical location, it can be said to be the intersection of several major regions. Therefore, all major forces do not want to be controlled by each other, so they set a rule to allow it to develop freely and no one can interfere, especially the strong ones at the Dou Zun level, who are not allowed to set foot in.
This rule has been established for nearly a thousand years and has continued to this day, causing the Black Horn Region to become increasingly chaotic and even some taboo items to appear.
