BTTH: Thunder Emperor

BTTH-Chapter 19: The Woman in Green

Xiao Tian didn't say anything when he saw this and just put it away.

He opened the third box, revealing a yellow scroll inside: "Xuan Class Advanced: Crazy Lion Roar."

Xiao Tian took a brief look; it was quite similar to the Thunder Lion he practiced but not as effective as the Thunder Lion provided by the system, which increased damage with the spirit thunder.

"I'll give this to you. I don't think highly of it. Once you learn it, you can use it as a trump card. At least you will have the ability to protect yourself." Xiao Tian casually tossed the scroll to Xiao Yixian.

Xiao Yixian carefully took the scroll and looked at Xiao Tian. "You don't need it? This is a high-level Xuan-level dou skill. It's something that people would fight over outside, yet in your hands, it's like trash. You can just throw it away at will."

"We've taken everything. Let's go. It's time to leave. What are your plans?" Xiao Tian asked as he surveyed the empty stone chamber.

"I plan to go back to Wanyaozhai."

Hearing Xiao Yixian's words, Xiao Tian looked at her. "You're going back? The mercenaries and the young leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group who came out with you are dead. Aren't you afraid that the leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group will harm you?"

"I will be safe if I return to Qingshan Town because the other two leaders of the three major mercenary groups owe me favors, and the Wanyaozhai Master Yao who hired me is also a Dou Shi. What about you?"

"Me? I plan to go deep into the Magic Beast Mountain Range to take a look. Let's go out now."

The two walked towards the cave entrance. After about ten minutes, they arrived at the cave entrance. Xiao Tian used the Wings of Thunder Peng: "Come here; let's fly up directly."

"You can't touch me." After saying this, she walked to Xiao Tian and hugged him.

"Hold on tight." Xiao Tian wrapped his arms around Xiao Yixian's slender waist, flapped his wings behind him, and flew quickly towards the cliff.

There was a whistling sound of wind in her ears. The Little Medical Fairy looked up at Xiao Tian's face, feeling the warmth radiating from his body. A strange gleam flickered in her beautiful eyes.

After reaching the cliff, Xiao Tian did not stop and flew directly towards Qingshan Town. The road from the cliff to Qingshan Town was usually infested with first- and second-level monsters, so Xiao Tian was not worried.

After flying all the way to the edge of the Monster Mountain Range, Xiao Tian slowly descended and landed steadily. He gently squeezed the hand on Xiao Yixian's waist and said jokingly, "Why don't you let go? Are you planning to hold on forever? How about I hold you and fly for a while?"

"Then I'll leave first. Take care of yourself." Xiao Yixian quickly broke free from Xiao Tian's arms and walked away in embarrassment.

"You're going the wrong way. Qingshan Town is on the other side."

"I... know. I'm just going to see if there are any herbs over there. I'm leaving now."

Watching the shy and flustered Little Medical Fairy run towards Qingshan Town, Xiao Tian shook his head with amusement, flapped the Wings of Thunder Peng behind him, and flew directly into the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

...

After parting with Xiao Yixian, Xiao Tian returned to the treasure cave again, took out Xuantian grass, purple heart vine, wood spirit flower, and other herbs, used heavenly flame to condense a cauldron, and threw the herbs into the cauldron for refining with a wave of his hand.

After all the medicinal materials were extracted, Xiao Tian controlled the powders and liquids of different colors to slowly blend them in the flames.

A faint elixir fragrance wafted from the heavenly flame cauldron, revealing a purple pill inside. Xiao Tian stretched out his hand, and the pill fell into his palm.

"The fourth-grade Xuanling Pill is ready." Xiao Tian looked at the pill in his hand and smiled, then threw the pill into his mouth.

The Xuanling Pill is an elixir recorded in the Book of Alchemy, ranked fourth grade, with no side effects, allowing Dou Shi to break through by the one-star.

The pill turned into a stream of energy and was absorbed by the cyclone. Xiao Tian's dou qi fluctuated for a while, and after about a cup of tea, it gradually settled down. Xiao Tian's realm also reached the seven-star Dou Shi level.

...

Two months later, in the Warcraft Mountains, in a forest

Xiao Tian confronted a python-like Warcraft.

The third-order Red Cloud Python opened its mouth, revealing its fangs laced with venom, and bit directly at Xiao Tian. He used the technique of shrinking the earth into an inch and moved to the side in an instant.

Seeing that its attack missed, the Red Cloud Python raised its tail and swung it towards Xiao Tian like a dragon. Xiao Tian grabbed the halberd with both hands and chopped directly at the snake's tail.

The immense force from the snake's tail pushed Xiao Tian back more than ten steps, rendering his hands numb. "This beast is really strong and can attack with both its head and tail; it's hard to defend against."

The Red Cloud Python's tail was almost severed by the halberd. Enraged by the pain, it raised its head and spit out its tongue at Xiao Tian, making a "hissing" sound; its red eyes became even more bloodshot, filled with fury.

After the Red Cloud Python opened its mouth and spit out a stream of venom, it quickly flew across the ground, getting closer and closer to Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian hurriedly avoided the venom. Although the Red Cloud Python was the lowest level magical beast among the three tiers, its venom was paralyzing and reached a high temperature. Even a four-star great fighter would be on the verge of death if touched by it and could only await their demise.

While Xiao Tian dodged the venom attack, the Red Cloud Python had already come near him. The man and the snake clashed violently for dozens of rounds in an instant, with surrounding trees breaking and dust flying. The injured tail of the Red Cloud Python was directly severed.

With the help of the force from colliding with the snake's head, Xiao Tian flew directly into the air. "I also know my strength. I've already been trained enough. It's time for me to complete my task."

Xiao Tian raised the long halberd above his head. A Dou Qi Clock appeared around him, and dou qi flowed all over his body as he continuously input it into the long halberd. He swung it down at the Red Cloud Python.

"Third Style of Heavenly Thunder: Cut the Moon!"

The long halberd swung out a dark green crescent-shaped strike about ten feet long, emitting a massive sense of oppression as it slashed towards the Red Cloud Python.

The Red Cloud Python sensed the arrival of death and opened its mouth to condense a huge ball of red venom. The venom flew out and was instantly obliterated by the breath and lightning when it collided with the crescent moon.

The green light passed through the Red Cloud Python, instantly splitting its head and half of its body cleanly in two. The green light finally hit the ground. After a loud bang, huge cracks spread like a spider web, and the Red Cloud Python's body was blown to pieces.

"I wonder if my friend in the tree has any advice for me?" Xiao Tian held the long spear in his hand, glaring fiercely at the large tree in the distance.

A woman in green and white clothing flew out from the tree that Xiao Tian was looking at. Her three thousand black strands of hair were tied up high with a phoenix hair ornament. She held a thin sword and had a pair of green dou qi wings behind her.

The green figure gradually approached, slowly descending to land three meters away from Xiao Tian.

Seeing the appearance and figure of the visitor, Xiao Tian couldn't help but sigh. "There is beauty in the north, peerless and independent."

The woman in green exuded a solemn and elegant aura, her demeanor revealing a hint of noble grace.

Looking at the person before him, Xiao Tian had already confirmed her identity. She bore the aura of the wind attribute, the strength of a Dou Huang, and such a beautiful, noble, and elegant temperament. There was only one person like her in the entire Jia Ma Empire, and she was also his future target.

"May I know your name? What advice do you have for me?" Xiao Tian dissipated the energy from the Heavenly Thunder Halberd and addressed the person in front of him.
