Chapter 145: Breakthrough to Battle Sovereign!

The astonishing speed drew the attention of many strong individuals along the way. However, upon sensing the formidable aura emanating from above, they quickly dismissed any thoughts of investigating further.

The Izumo Empire was not far from the Black-Corner Domain. Even with the speed of the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor, it took three months before they could see the vast plains of the Black-Corner Domain.

Along the way, the group didn't just hurry along. Whenever they passed energy-rich mountain ranges, they would land to rest and also seek out medicinal herbs in the mountains.

The medicinal herbs plundered by Jiang Yun were almost exhausted. Moreover, he was now an eighth-tier alchemist; he had the prescriptions but only lacked the practice.

The group's strength had reached a certain level, and low-level pills could no longer aid them. Therefore, high-grade medicinal herbs were still scarce for Jiang Yun.

They fought their way through, inevitably clashing with powerful magical beasts. With Medusa and Zi Yan's combined assaults, they faced little obstruction, gaining many rare herbs.

Though it consumed some time, Qing Lin, with the help of Jiang Yun's group, captured several sixth-tier snake-shaped magical beasts and successfully broke through to the Dou Emperor level. Little Doctor Immortal also smoothly advanced to a four-star Dou Emperor.

Naturally, the group couldn't help but celebrate!

Finally, an expansive black plain stretched to the horizon, a dark canopy covering the ground, appearing before everyone's sight.

"The Black-Corner Domain, back at last!" Seeing the familiar sight in the distance, Jiang Yun couldn't help but smile.

"Hehe, I wonder what kind of expression Old Su will have upon seeing my strength now!" Zi Yan also beamed with joy, eagerly imagining Su Qian's incredulous expression upon seeing her current strength.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yun also displayed a faint smile.

After a brief rest, the group continued their journey towards the Jia Nan Academy.

The Black-Corner Domain was chaotic territory. From the sky, they could overlook the land below, where bloodshed, killing, betrayal, and ambushes—various crimes—unfolded clearly before their eyes.

Every day, countless lives perished here; chaos was the prevailing theme.

Witnessing this for the first time, Qing Lin and Little Doctor Immortal frowned slightly in discomfort, yet they felt no sympathy. This was the true face of the Dou Qi Continent!

Under Jiang Yun's guidance, they quickly spotted the outline of Jia Nan City from a distance. The group descended outside the city and entered Jia Nan City on foot.

Jia Nan Academy remained as peaceful and serene as ever. Since the time when Jiang Yun and the elders eradicated the forces threatening Jia Nan Academy from the Black-Corner Domain, this tranquility had only deepened.

Elders went about their duties, while students trained and competed, exuding a thriving atmosphere.

Deep within the inner academy, outside an elegant and serene pavilion, Su Qian, the Great Elder of the inner academy, lay in a rocking chair, sipping a cup of tea and enjoying the quiet life.

"Another peaceful and quiet day," Su Qian sighed in admiration after taking a sip of tea.

"A leisurely life for the Great Elder, indeed!" Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in Su Qian's ears, making him slightly puzzled. Holding the teacup, he looked at the twisted space ahead.

"Who's there, sneaking around?" Seeing the distorted space, Su Qian reacted abruptly. Without recalling whose familiar voice it was, he shouted, and a powerful aura of a six-star Dou Zong erupted.

"Hehe, Great Elder, it's only been a few days, and you can't recognize my voice?" A clear voice fell, and the previously distorted space suddenly surged with intense space fluctuations. A black hole about ten feet wide slowly appeared.

As soon as the space black hole emerged, ripples of fluctuation came from within. Jiang Yun led the way, and several figures followed, eventually appearing before Su Qian.

"It's Jiang Yun and Zi Yan!" Seeing the familiar figures, Su Qian sighed in relief, then quickly realized and stared in astonishment at the space tunnel behind them, stuttering, "You all..."

"Hehe, Old Su, scared, aren't you? I've surpassed you now; I'm a Dou Zun!" Seeing Su Qian's reaction, Zi Yan laughed, stepping in front of Su Qian and boasting.

Zi Yan's voice brought Su Qian back from his thoughts. Seeing Zi Yan's smug face, Su Qian's old face darkened, but he commented with emotion, "Well, I always knew your destiny lay beyond Jia Nan Academy. I didn't expect that in just three years, you'd have made such advancements. Zi Yan, now being on the same level as the Headmaster, would certainly make him proud."

Hearing Su Qian's sentiment, Jiang Yun's heart stirred. Mang Tian Chi was a half-saint level expert, but Jia Nan Academy always thought he was a Dou Zun. This mistake didn't need correction.

"Jiang Yun, aren't you going to introduce these ladies?" After some moments of sentiment, Su Qian turned his gaze to the unfamiliar women, playfully asking Jiang Yun.

"Let me introduce them for you; this is Little Doctor Immortal, and this is Qing Lin, both my dear sisters!" Before Jiang Yun could speak, Zi Yan enthusiastically introduced Little Doctor Immortal and Qing Lin to Su Qian.

"Great Elder!" Since Su Qian was considered a senior to Jiang Yun and Zi Yan, Qing Lin and Little Doctor Immortal behaved particularly well in his presence.

"Good, good!" Seeing the close relationship among the three, Su Qian felt reassured and then looked towards Medusa, asking, "Who is this?"

"She's my enemy!" At this moment, Zi Yan, uncharacteristically cold, glanced at Medusa and replied indifferently.

"Hmph!" Knowing Zi Yan's words were spoken in spite, Medusa was not to be outdone and coldly snorted, turning away.

"Ah?" Su Qian, seeing through Zi Yan's mind, turned to Jiang Yun for an explanation.

"This is Queen Medusa!" Jiang Yun softly explained in response to Su Qian's inquiry.

"Queen Medusa!" Sure enough, upon hearing the name, Su Qian's expression became solemn. Queen Medusa, notorious across the continent, was well-known, and Su Qian was naturally aware.

Realizing the situation, he discreetly gave Jiang Yun a thumbs-up.

"Great Elder, we've returned because we're heading to Zhongzhou. We stopped by to visit the Academy, and I've reached the peak of the Dou Zong. I want to use the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower to make the final breakthrough!"

After some small talk, Jiang Yun expressed his request.

"So, you're breaking through to Dou Zun too?" Hearing Jiang Yun's request, Su Qian didn't oppose it. His movements briefly paused as he looked up at Jiang Yun's youthful face with some sentiment.

"Go ahead, everything will be ready by tomorrow. You know what's down there, so I won't say much more. Be careful!"

"Thank you, Great Elder!" Jiang Yun nodded. "It's been numerous times troubling the Academy. I can now refine eight-tier pills. Great Elder, you might as well gather more herbs while I'm in seclusion. This time, no charge for the academy's pills!"

Eight-tier alchemist!

Upon hearing Jiang Yun could refine eight-tier pills, Su Qian was momentarily stunned. Though he had foreseen Jiang Yun reaching this level, he hadn't expected it so soon.

Regaining his senses, Su Qian joyfully exclaimed, "This will certainly keep them awake all night!"

The next day.

At the bottom of the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower.

Jiang Yun looked at the small Fallen Heart Flame. Compared to a few years ago, its source fire had grown tenfold.

Moreover, unlike before, the Fallen Heart Flame now lacked any violent tendencies, more like a pure child, frolicking before Jiang Yun, showing how the academy's efforts had not been in vain.

With a faint smile, Jiang Yun summoned it to his hand, slowly infusing his powerful Dou Qi. Given his current Dou Qi intensity, it was a significant supplement for the small flame, saving considerable growth time.

One could see the delight and affection flashing in its snake-like eyes.

After playing with it briefly, Jiang Yun let it go and descended deeper into the magma.

Finding a concealed place within the magma, Jiang Yun set up a defensive formation and began his breakthrough to Dou Zun.

Jiang Yun operated his cultivation method, slowly absorbing the Holy Sky Demon Flame trapped in the Green Underworld Body. As his strength increased, he was gradually absorbing the Holy Sky Demon Flame bit by bit.

One day, he would fully refine it, making it his own Holy Sky Demon Flame!

As the flame flowed in, an ocean-like, vast pure energy poured into his body, rushing through Jiang Yun's limbs and bones like a torrent.

Immediately, a terrifying high temperature erupted within Jiang Yun's body, reducing his clothes to ashes and revealing his robust physique.

While the flame burned Jiang Yun's body, it continuously enhanced his body's strength, hardness, and resilience.

Jiang Yun had already reached the pinnacle of the nine-star Dou Zong, where further advancement felt impossible due to insufficient accumulated strength to break the thin film to Dou Zun.

Now, with prior accumulation and this current surge, Jiang Yun vibrantly tore through this barrier, entering a profound state.

As Jiang Yun entered this profound state, the surrounding space's force of heaven and earth surged dramatically.

Time flew by, and two months passed.

Within the magma sea, a terrifying and vast aura erupted, shooting skyward like a stone shattering the sky!

Jiang Yun, after breaking through to Dou Zun, had not yet awakened. Benefiting from the breakthrough, a terrifying suction force exploded within his soul sea, continuously drawing in the surrounding worldly spirit energy into his soul.

The more spirit energy surged in, the more a spirit vortex formed, potentially allowing anyone below the Spirit Realm to ascend through it.

Jiang Yun's soul surface gradually formed a crystal-like layer, soaking in a warm glow, feeling much like a fetus in a womb.

Unnoticed time passed, invisible waves emanated from Jiang Yun, spreading slowly, calming the boiling magma a hundred feet around into eerie silence.

It felt extraordinarily eerie!

Suddenly, his body twitched, a blinding light surged from him, and a vast invisible wave like a storm swept across.

"Two-star Dou Zun, peak Spirit Realm!"

Jiang Yun slowly opened his eyes, his aura returning to its usual peaceful state.

"Seems we have visitors!" He murmured, looking into the distance.

With these words, his figure gradually twisted, disappearing in an instant, leaving a mere afterimage behind.

As Jiang Yun stepped out of the formation, numerous towering red beams of light unfolded in the surrounding magma world, resembling giant eyes.

"Roar..."

From the depths of the magma, terrifying roars stirred vast waves, causing the entire underground magma world to boil. Numerous flame lizards surged towards Jiang Yun.

"Flame lizards?" Sensing the powerful auras approaching, Jiang Yun realized these were guardians created by the ancient ruler's tomb's setup.

These beings differed entirely from the magical beasts of the Dou Qi continent, having no demonic cores.

As Jiang Yun pondered, sturdy red figures swam agilely in the red magma, swiftly approaching him. Their bodies, covered in red scales matching the magma color, had wide mouths lined with sharp teeth, looking like upright walking flame lizards.

Sensing their Dou Zong-level auras, Jiang Yun chuckled, reached towards them, and silently manipulated terrifying spatial forces.

"Boom—"

Continuous bursts sounded, and the flame lizards at Dou Emperor and Dou Zong levels were instantly shattered by Jiang Yun.

Scarlet beads remained at their original spots!

Jiang Yun beckoned, and the beads came into his hand, containing a substantial amount of pure and violent fire energy—purer than external sources.

"Are these alternative spirit stones?"

An odd thought crossed Jiang Yun's mind. He pocketed the beads when a more terrifying roar echoed from the magma depths.

"Roar——" (Chapter End)
