Battle Through the Heavens: Even without the Burning Flame Technique, I, Xiao Yan, still became an e

Chapter 98 Forced Breakthrough

"Good lad, good lad, really a good lad!"

Instead of being angry, He Rang was delighted and praised the young man three times. Then, he circulated his fighting spirit, shook off the yellow sand, and jumped out.

"I've lost this match. From now on, you'll be in charge of protecting Master Guhe. If the opponent isn't strong enough, you don't need to be the first to act."

The many fighting spirits this team invited were actually used to clear out the weaker opponents. After all, those with combat power above the level of Dou Wang should be used to deal with sufficiently powerful opponents. If they were used up prematurely, it could affect the entire battle.

"Thank you all, and thank you Master Furukawa."

In this way, Xiao Yan officially joined the search team for the strange fire.

"Alright, we've already wasted some time, let's hurry on our way now."

Guhe spoke, and everyone continued forward, the group chasing after Yue Mei in the direction she had fled.

"Huh, why do I feel so incredibly light?"

As they traveled together, Xiao Yan noticed that he and the others seemed to be enveloped in a gust of wind, moving with the wind and greatly increasing their speed.

Xiao Yan glanced back and discovered that the aura was emanating from the mysterious black-robed Dou Huang. Dou Qi circulated around her body, covering a space of about a hundred meters around her, allowing everyone to travel with the wind.

However, Xiao Yan didn't ask any further questions. His current task was simply to go into the Holy City with them.

"There aren't many snake people ahead. You guys clear a path and don't get bogged down in fighting. If any Dou Wang level experts try to stop us, we'll make our move."

Several hours later, the group arrived at a large snake-people tribe.

There are many yellow stone houses here, but there are no walls or other protections. Snake people walk around the streets.

These snake-people were of average cultivation level, many of them not even reaching the level of a Fighter, equivalent to ordinary people among humans.

The appearance of Xiao Yan and his group was clearly unexpected by these snake people.

Some snake-people with low cultivation levels fled upon seeing humans, which saved a lot of trouble.

"Keep moving forward and don't cause trouble. Don't waste time on them unless they attack first."

Guhe spoke again. He was the main client for this operation, and everyone followed his lead.

As a Dou Ling, Xiao Yan needs to work with the other Dou Ling to pave the way ahead.

Faced with the snake-man guards surging out from all directions, Xiao Yan conjured a giant sword of azure fire in his hand.

Most of the snake-man guards this time were only at the level of a Battle Master, and the leader was only a Great Battle Master.

This force, even among humans, would be the defensive force of a powerful city, so its appearance in this large tribe is not entirely unusual.

Even so, these guards were no match for the attack of the six Dou Ling experts.

Each of the six people took charge of a direction and repelled the guards, while Gu He, the two Dou Wangs, and the mysterious Dou Huang advanced straight in.

After they pass, Xiao Yan and his group will cover their retreat.

Everyone worked very hard because they knew very well that no matter what injuries they suffered, this sixth-grade alchemist would reimburse them.

Even if someone is killed in battle, their family will receive a large sum of compensation.

Xiao Yan did not kill these snake-men; he simply swatted away whoever surrounded him. If there were too many snake-men, he would use his fighting techniques to send them all flying.

He didn't have much hatred for the snake people, and Guhe's goal this time wasn't to kill them, so there was no need to expend too much energy here.

Xiao Yan fought off the guards along the northeast direction. Every Dou Shi he encountered was knocked to the ground unconscious, lying densely packed on the street.

"Huh? What's this—"

While clearing a path, Xiao Yan suddenly discovered a meadow. The meadow looked messy and disorderly, but it was covered with golden plants.

Sand Mandala!

This is a very rare medicinal herb, which is said to grow only in the heart of this desert.

This medicinal herb can even be used to refine fifth and sixth grade pills, but now it is just left here carelessly.

"I have to say, these snake people are really wasting resources. They leave so many sand mandalas here like weeds."

As an alchemist, Xiao Yan naturally couldn't tolerate such wasteful behavior.

Taking advantage of the absence of snake-man guards, he plunged his sword into the ground, causing the surrounding soil to lift up.

Then, he exerted force with his palm to absorb all the sand mandalas. Although they were covered in sand, it didn't matter to Xiao Yan.

"I'm really lucky. I managed to collect more than twenty sand datura plants at once."

Xiao Yan collected the medicinal herbs and reunited them with the majority of the group.

"It seems that this kid's original goal was this medicinal herb. He said he was going to be your bodyguard, but in reality, we've become his backup."

Dou Wang Yan Shi saw Xiao Yan taking the Sand Mandala and couldn't help but say something.

"I didn't expect this guy to be so powerful. He's actually an alchemist. He seems to have a bright future ahead of him."

Another Dou Wang, Feng Li, also praised Xiao Yan.

"How about it? This kid has unlimited potential. It's fate that we met here. Are you interested in taking him on as a disciple?"

Gu He hadn't paid much attention to these things at first, but he was surprised when the black-robed Dou Huang beside him suddenly spoke up.

"This doesn't sound like something you would say, and from the beginning you seemed to have been taking good care of this kid. Do you know him?"

Even if Guhe is very straightforward, he can understand the meaning behind her words.

"I just admire your talent. At such a young age, you have such strength and talent in alchemy. If I could become your disciple, I believe that in a few decades, the Jia Ma Empire will have another sixth-grade alchemist. Moreover, this would also be a good thing for my Yunlan Sect."

The black-robed Dou Huang's words were not without reason. Gu He did indeed have a disciple, but that guy was only in his twenties and had only the strength of a second-grade cultivator.

At least in terms of soul power, the boy named Yan Xiao in front of him is much stronger than his disciple.

"Your suggestion is not bad, but let's talk about taking on disciples after we get the Strange Flame."

With the words of the Black-Robed Dou Huang, Gu He did indeed begin to notice Xiao Yan and started to show interest in him.

If this operation goes smoothly, it wouldn't be a bad idea for me to take him in.

Soon, this large tribe was forcibly broken through, and even the subsequent appearance of three commanders at the Douling level could not stop them.

If this team hadn't wanted to avoid making things too tense, the tribe would probably have been embroiled in bloodshed.

After Gu He and his group passed through the large tribe, Xiao Yan and the others also left to follow behind. Only after they had completely left the tribe did they speed up and catch up with Gu He and his group.

"These humans are going too far! Send an envoy immediately and report this matter to Queen Medusa!"
