Sixty-Eighth Spirit Dragon Elixir
No wonder Nan Gong Wang readily agreed to let Nan Gong Xiang Xue find Tang Yan last time, it turns out that half of the reason is this. The Nan Gong family has reached a critical point of life and death, he must find a strong backer to support it. In this way, Tang Yan becomes a bet in Nan Gong Wang's eyes, with half of the Nan Gong royal family's fate pinned on him.
Nan Gong Wang took the two thousand-year-old Di Ling Gen and immediately returned to the palace, instructing a few trusted aides to send the medicinal herbs in his hands to Feng Qing City. With the royal guard's flying cavalry, it should take only a day and night to deliver the goods to Tang Yan's hands. Of course, other aristocratic families also knew about this matter, including some sects. They all thought that Nan Gong Wang was sending some elixirs to Tang Yan, trying to win him over as a genius.
It's strange to say, but those who had animosity towards Tang Yan not only didn't stop this from happening, they even let other sects and aristocratic families send medicinal pellets to Tang Yan. Their goal was the same as that of Wang Nan Gong - they hoped to buy a favor from him and pull him in, especially the master of Quan Zong Men, who knew about this matter. He also sent someone to deliver some rare medicinal materials and several six-grade Dou Qi Dan to Tang Yan, hoping that he would become powerful quickly, preferably more powerful than the Dong Fang aristocratic family, so that Tang Yan could destroy them.
"The clan master, many aristocratic families and sects are betting on him, shouldn't we also make a statement?" said the housekeeper of the Zongjian Sect.
"Damn it, if that little brat suddenly becomes powerful, won't my plan be ruined?" the Sword Emperor cursed.
"Why don't we just do what those old things did and give him some medicine, just going through the motions!" said the housekeeper.
"It's no use, even if I had the elixir, I couldn't give it to him. If I raised him up and he turned around and bit me, wouldn't I be dying a loss?" said Jian Huang.
"I know, I'll go pick a few ordinary spiritual herbs and have someone deliver them to him!" said the housekeeper.
Tang Yan only wanted some medicinal materials for the Dragon Spirit Dan, but didn't expect that the next day, people representing their sects, aristocratic families and forces would send the medicine to the cozy and abundant guesthouse in Feng Qing City for Tang Yan. However, since Tang Yan was in seclusion, all the items sent were received by Xuan Yuan Yue and Zi Lan instead. Similarly, business at this tavern was booming, as some people had brought valuable things but hadn't seen Tang Yan's face, so they wouldn't leave, and thus stayed at the tavern.
Until the next day, Tang Yan came out of the pass. When Tang Yan came out of the pass, various representatives of the aristocratic families and sects spoke out their own gifts and things they had brought with them. In response to their flattery, Tang Yan still only said one sentence: after he had dealt with the affairs of the Dongfang family, he would visit each of the aristocratic families and sects one by one. He also mentioned that if there were any items obtained from the restricted area, he would take them out and auction them off to everyone.
Thousands of words and phrases, the most pleasant to hear is this one. What they get from the forbidden land is what they need. Tang Yan didn't leave a single medicinal material behind, all were stored in his own spatial ring.
"This is yours, two portions!" said Nangong Xiangxue, who also received the Linglong Dan medicine from her father's trusted aide.
"Thanks a lot!" Tang Yan said as he took it and put it away in his spatial ring.
"Where's the five million gold coins?" Nangong Xiangxue stretched out her small hand again to ask for money.
"Why does a girl need so much money? It's not safe to carry too much cash. How about this, I'll hold onto it for now and you can come find me when you need it?" Tang Yan would never give her five million gold coins.
"It's okay if you don't give it to me, but you have to help me with something!" said Nangong Xiangxue.
"What's going on?" As soon as he heard that no money was needed, Tang Yan's eyes lit up. As long as it wasn't too excessive, even if it meant giving himself to Nan Gong Xiang Xue, Tang Yan wouldn't mind.
"Come with me to the room, I'll tell you!" said Nangong Xiangxue.
"Really? Is she really going to make me sell my first time to her?" When Nangong Xiangxue called out for him to enter the room, Tang Yan thought of this point in his heart, but he didn't dare say it out loud.
Tang Yan thought too much, Nangong Xiangxue would not look down on the thing below Tang Yan, she just passed on her father's words to him. She said that the city master of Fengqing City and the army all belonged to the Dongfang family, it was a simple matter, let Tang Yan kill the city master here too. In this way, Nangong Wang had an excuse again, and arranged his loyal subordinates to be stationed in Fengqing City!
"Wouldn't killing the lord of this castle mean we don't have to pay back the five million gold coins?" Tang Yan asked, not minding if they had to kill a few more people.
"Uh-huh!" Nangong Xiangxue nodded and said.
"Alright, I'll go out and take care of it in two days!" Tang Yan felt that he was about to break through, planning to break through the Fourth Star Great Fighting Master before going out to find trouble with the city master here.
"I won't disturb you then. I hope you break through to the Dou Sheng stage soon!" Nangong Xiangxue said with a smile to Tang Yan.
"Hehe, I won't disappoint you, just wait for me in bed!" Tang Yan said.
After obtaining a large pile of rare and precious medicine, Tang Yan began to retreat into his room for closed-door training. However, before he did so, he took out all the medicinal herbs and pills from his storage space. He asked the old man inside the Dragon Ring for advice, but unexpectedly, the old man told him to take all the medicinal herbs and soak them in water for a bath. Except for two portions of Ling Long Dan, Tang Yan could use those Dou Qi Dan, Da Huo Dan, and other pills as candies, as long as his Dou Qi accumulated to a certain level, he would be able to break through.
Before the Lianling Longdan, the old man in the Dragon Ring gave Tang Yan those materials sent over and refined them into a few bottles for him to soak in the medicinal water every day to practice his skills, rather than just sitting cross-legged on the bed in closed-door meditation. This way, Tang Yan's cultivation would be a two-pronged attack, believing that the effect would be even better.
The old man refined the elixir in the space inside the Dragon Ring, and two Spirit Dragon Elixirs could be refined within half a day. Of course, Tang Yan also slept on the bed, entering the Dragon Ring to watch him refine the elixir. Anyway, he would have to learn how to do it himself one day.
"Can these two things really help me reach the peak of Dou Ling?" Tang Yan looked at the two purple pills flying out of the White Dan furnace and asked.
"Of course, but before you take it, I suggest you soak in the medicinal bath for a few more days and raise your strength to at least six-star Great Warrior or above. Otherwise, I'm afraid that if you eat it now, you'll explode and die!" The old man said as he put away the two pills with the purple dragon aura into a bottle.
"This is easy, I'll go break through to Four-Star Great Dou Shi now!" Tang Yan thought of the high-grade Dou Qi Dans in his spatial ring.
After exiting the space, Tang Yan took the Dou Qi Dan sent by the sect master and started eating it like candy. At first, one pill was not enough, so he ate two more. Until after taking the third pill, the Dou Qi in Tang Yan's body suddenly surged up, under his divine consciousness, constantly compressing in the Dantian, repeatedly compressing until the Great Perfection, a muffled sound exploded inside his body.
Finally, Tang Yan entered the Five-Star Great Dou Shi. After entering the Five-Star Great Dou Shi, Tang Yan immediately asked the little second in the shop to help him prepare boiling water. Then, Old Man Suo gave him a medicinal liquid and poured it into the boiling water in the wooden bucket. Finally, he directly soaked in the water full of medicinal smell, operating the Dragon Slayer's Art inside his body, continuously absorbing the spiritual medicine from the water.
"Hug the snow and soak in the medicinal water to practice your skills!" The old man kept instructing Tang Yan.
"Yes!" Tang Yan wasn't excited about becoming a five-star Grandmaster because the strong masters above Dou Huang rank were waiting for him ahead, and under their power, a five-star Grandmaster could be sent flying with just one flick.
His body was soaked in the spiritual medicine, his soul entered the Blowing Snow Space to practice, and it was indeed a win-win situation. Tang Yan's cultivation speed soared rapidly. The Purple Dragon Seal also learned two seals, and even the Thunder Nine Absolute Palm learned five heavy palms, its power increasing with Tang Yan's strength. Other sword techniques and speeds also increased.
In the span of a day and night, Nan Gong Bai Ya, who had been guarding Tang Yan's side, once again felt an overwhelming surge of power dispersing, causing him to gaze at Tang Yan with his peculiar eyes. Even Nan Gong Xiang Xue, who lived next door, opened her sleepy eyes, but she didn't enter Tang Yan's room; instead, she only cracked open the window and released a few carrier pigeons into the night sky.
"Waiter, help me change the water!" On the third day, Tang Yan woke up from his meditation and found that the blue medicine had turned into clear water. Then he said, "Six-star Big Dipper Master, old man, can I take the Linglong Dan now?"
"Let's stay hidden for a few more days, no rush. The flesh is strong and safe." said the old man in the Dragon Ring.
"Alright!" Tang Yan followed his advice, hastily ate something, then continued to pour the medicinal liquid into Xiao Er's prepared hot water, continuing to soak in the scalding hot medicinal water.
Thanks to the blizzard, the pain was reduced to a minimum, several times better than before in the Forest of Bones, and with Tang Yan's strength reaching six-star Great Dou Shi, this little bit of pain could still be endured.
Looking at Tang Yan's crazy cultivation, Nangong Bo Ya couldn't help but admire this mysterious young man who came out of the forbidden land. In a short period of time, he had risen two stars in a row, and had already caught the attention of the Eastern aristocratic families. However, he did not expect that on the fifth day, they would receive news of Tang Yan's breakthrough again - Seventh Star Great Dou Shi. Rising one star every two days was simply too against the heavens. Of course, there were people who received the news that Tang Yan had risen three stars in five days, and their faces lit up with joy.
"Household master, what do you think about this matter?" The elder of the Dongfang family asked.
"No rush, he's just a Seven Star Great Douluo now. Even if he reaches the level of Dou Ling, he still won't be our match. Besides, no matter how heaven-defying he is, it's impossible for him to break through to Dou Ling in such a short period of time. What I'm worried about is that he'll stir up trouble in Feng Qing City. Tell the lord of Feng Qing City to lay low outside and not let him find any trouble!" said Dongfang Yu's father.
"I've already had someone inform the master of Feng Qing City."
"Hmm. Alright, you continue to send people to secretly monitor his movements, and notify me immediately if there's any news. The things in the forbidden land, our Eastern family will settle it!" Eastern Yu's father clenched his fist and said.
Tang Yan, who had broken through to the seventh star, no longer practiced in the medicine bath, but instead invited Nan Gong Bai Yao to a fierce battle of several hundred rounds outside Feng Qing City. Unbeknownst to Nan Gong Bai Yao, Tang Yan had already cultivated the fourth imprint of the Purple Dragon Seal. He also mastered the Nine Extremes Thunderclap Palm of the Zhong Zong Gate, and with six palms, his power was extraordinary, forcing Nan Gong Bai Yao to use 40% of his strength to counterattack. Although the Purple Dragon Seal lacked a hint of purple dragon killing intent, Tang Yan used the Thunderclap Technique on it, making its power no weaker than the original Purple Dragon Seal.
On the scene, apart from Nangong Xiangxue and others watching, there were many aristocratic families and sects who had invested in Tang Yan. They saw Tang Yan's strength and released a homing pigeon to inform their masters, letting them know that investing in Tang Yan was not a waste of resources.
"Old man, I now have the confidence to kill a strong warrior within the Dou Ling stage with just one palm!" Tang Yan said to the old man in the Dragon Ring through his mind.
"Hmm, I know what to do. You let the two Dou Huang protect you, and I'll give you a Ling Long Dan to eat!"
