Like Retrieving Something from a Sack

"Hmph, ignorant fool."

At this moment, a Serpent Race Magical Beast, already half-transformed with dark skin, immediately wore a cold expression and scolded, "How could a mere human Alchemist comprehend the mysteries left behind by our race's Demon Saint? Hmph, even the president of the Alchemist Guild of our Heavenly Serpent Empire has failed to decipher the profundity within. With just your Fifth Grade Alchemist skills, you dare to spout such nonsense? Step aside and don't disturb my race's cultivation here."

After all, the Serpent Race and the Human Race were two different species, and it was normal to dislike humans, especially here in the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, the Serpent Race's sacred ground in the Northwest Region.

Moreover, Xiao Yan was an Alchemist, and all Magical Beast races had weak Souls, making it even harder for them to produce Alchemists. It was perfectly normal for them to dislike Xiao Yan.

Although Xiao Yan had only voiced his doubts, in the ears of these Serpent Race members, it sounded somewhat mocking. They felt that Xiao Yan was talking big, as if the Human Race producing an Alchemist was something extraordinary.

They scolded him to let Xiao Yan, this Alchemist, know his place.

Xiao Yan was too lazy to spare another glance at this Serpent Emperor and ignored him, but the hot-tempered Zi Yan jumped out.

"Huh?! What do you think you are? Just a hairy snake, do you believe I'll smash you with one punch?" Zi Yan put her hands on her hips, revealing a fierce appearance, but the powerful Magical Beast aura on her body was genuine.

"You're a Magical Beast? You took a Transformation Pill?!" The Serpent Emperor's eyes narrowed. Zi Yan's transformation was already perfect, and there was no doubt that she had used a Transformation Pill.

"None of your business," Zi Yan didn't give the other party any face. A mere Sixth Order Serpent Race member was nothing more than a few punches to her.

Xiao Yan waved his hand, as if shooing away a fly, and said, "Where did this idiot come from? Don't block my sight."

"You!" The Serpent Race Dou Huang's face turned extremely ugly.

It was a Sixth Order Magical Beast, and even in the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, it was a figure with some status. Yet, it was now being humiliated by an unknown junior. How could it not be furious?

"I am the Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor of the Winged Serpent Clan, in charge of thousands of miles of territory in the Heavenly Serpent Empire..."

"Never heard of you," Xiao Yan waved his hand, interrupting the Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor's self-introduction. His attitude made the Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor so angry that it almost spat blood, feeling like it had punched cotton. It thought that announcing its background would intimidate an unknown junior like Xiao Yan.

"This kid is very arrogant." Seeing Xiao Yan's attitude, many people present shook their heads slightly. Many people understood in their hearts that offending the Heavenly Serpent Mansion here would definitely not end well.

Xiao Yan didn't care what the people present thought. Instead, he carefully examined the cave entrance, and asked seemingly casually, "Since no one is taking it, does that mean whoever gets the thing inside gets to keep it?"

Upon hearing this, the Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor sneered and said, "The entire Northwest Region knows that the Serpent Saint Mountain Peak of our Heavenly Serpent Mansion is a public treasure land, a blessing to the Northwest Region. Whoever has the ability to obtain the things left behind by the Azure-Eyed Demon Saint will naturally be the one with the fate to have them. Only ignorant children from remote places don't know this."

As if seizing Xiao Yan's weakness, the Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor sneered, kicking him when he was down, and mocking him as if beating a drowning dog.

In fact, upon hearing Xiao Yan's knowingly-asked question, Jia Xing Tian, who knew Xiao Yan somewhat, frowned and realized that things were not simple.

This guy never does anything without a purpose!

After receiving the Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor's reply, Xiao Yan secretly revealed an imperceptible smile. Then, ignoring the glares and sneers of everyone around him, he actually put his hand into the dark cave.

Seeing that Xiao Yan was actually thinking of taking something out of this dark cave, the Serpent Race Magical Beasts here sneered repeatedly, thinking that Xiao Yan was a fool.

"What a fool, countless people have explored this for thousands of years. This cave was probably left behind by wind and rain. He actually plans to use his hand to dig it out." A Serpent Race Magical Beast said with a cold smile.

"Ha, this is really a frog at the bottom of a well, extremely unsophisticated. Where did this bumpkin come from?" At this moment, seeing Xiao Yan's appearance of a child fishing by the river, putting his hand into the rocks, many people laughed loudly.

But how could Xiao Yan do such a stupid thing?

There was naturally nothing in this cave. It was just a cave about thirty centimeters deep, probably left behind by a Dou Zun expert who wanted to forcibly break open this stone wall.

But after all, this was something left behind by a Dou Sheng, how could it be so easy to obtain by force? So only a cave was left behind.

Xiao Yan put his hand in not to really take something out, but to conceal the Void Swallowing Flame!

Mao Wu drilled out of Xiao Yan's palm. At this time, Xiao Yan deliberately blocked the cave with his Soul and body to prevent being discovered.

In this small deep cave, Mao Wu, who had evolved to Earth Sub-Flame, was operating at full power. There was indeed something inside, and it was sealed by a special force.

But how could seals stop Mao Wu, who possessed the ability of the Void Swallowing Flame?

If Mao Wu had not evolved to Earth Sub-Flame, it might have taken a long time, but after evolving to Earth Sub-Flame, it was not difficult to burn out a void hole and let Xiao Yan's hand pass through.

If it evolved to Heaven Sub-Flame, it would not just be burning a small hole.

Meow! The power of the Void Swallowing Flame Earth Sub-Flame was fully activated, and the Black Flame frantically devoured and burned. In about two minutes, a fist-sized hole appeared.

With a snap, Xiao Yan's right hand grabbed a hard object, his eyes narrowed, and he suddenly pulled out his hand.

Originally, Xiao Yan planned to take the thing away silently, but Xiao Yan found that he was overthinking it. When Xiao Yan took the thing away, a beam of azure light burst out from the stone tablet and shot straight into the clouds above.

"Uh!? Ah!" The Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor, who had been mocking and ridiculing, had not finished speaking. When this phenomenon occurred, its mouth was wide open, and it could not speak for a moment.

In fact, at this moment, everyone's mouths were wide open, and everyone stared blankly at Xiao Yan, or rather at Xiao Yan's glowing right hand, feeling that this scene was too incredible.

At this moment, many people's mouths could fit an egg, and they were dumbfounded, unable to close their mouths for a long time.

Even Jia Xing Tian was dumbfounded. He couldn't believe it; it was simply too incredible, too outrageous. Even a Dou Zun had tried and failed, so how did he do it?!

However, what everyone thought was impossible was happening right now. Those who saw this scene on Enlightenment Peak felt that it was simply too bizarre.

"This, this, this is too outrageous, he, he, he really just, directly pulled it out???" Some people couldn't believe what they were seeing was real, thinking they were hallucinating or dreaming.

He really used his hand to pull something out! But if one person hallucinated or dreamed, that could be explained. It was impossible for everyone present to hallucinate or dream together, which meant that this scene was really happening.

After finally recovering, those who had mocked Xiao Yan earlier felt their old faces burning. Xiao Yan used practical actions to tell everyone in Heavenly Serpent Mansion that it was shameful not to take treasures when they were available!

It was simply a slap in their faces. Their Old Ancestor's treasure was obtained by an outsider, and a human at that!

With a loud rumble, when Xiao Yan took the item out, the stone tablet collapsed and shattered, as if it had lost all its supporting power, turning into a pile of rubble.

At this point, even the dumbest person knew that Xiao Yan had really obtained the item inside.

Xiao Yan sighed inwardly. He had wanted to make a fortune quietly, but now it seemed trouble was unavoidable.

At this moment, when the green light shot straight into the sky, everyone in the entire Heavenly Serpent Mansion naturally saw it.

"Hmm? What is that?"

"That direction seems to be Serpent Saint Mountain Peak!"

"Could it be! That a disciple has obtained the Cultivation Method and Dou Technique left behind by the Azure-Eyed Demon Saint?"

"Could it be the new Holy Maiden!"

At this time, Qing Lin, who had finished bathing and changing, also looked in the direction of the green light, and murmured: "How could this be? The item inside should only be obtainable with the Azure Snake Three-Flower Pupils."

Qing Lin had also been to Serpent Saint Mountain Peak. She knew from using her Azure Snake Three-Flower Pupils that this was a test left by the Azure-Eyed Serpent Saint. Only when the Azure Snake Three-Flower Pupils were cultivated to transcendence and Qing Lin's cultivation reached advanced Dou Zong could she obtain the item inside.

"Could it be that a second person possesses the Azure Snake Three-Flower Pupils?" Qing Lin was puzzled. How could someone have intercepted it?

In a mountain cave residence in the very center of Heavenly Serpent Mansion, a rather handsome man suddenly looked towards Serpent Saint Mountain Peak, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said: "Is it Qing Lin? No, it shouldn't be Qing Lin. She went there some time ago and still couldn't obtain the item inside."

This man was undoubtedly the current Sect Leader of Heavenly Serpent Mansion, She Tianhao.

"Immediately send people to investigate the situation!"

"Yes!"

At this moment, Xiao Yan, who was at the center of everyone's attention, slowly opened his right hand, no longer hiding it, knowing that he couldn't hide it anyway.

When Xiao Yan opened his hand, a ring appeared in everyone's eyes. This ring was inlaid with an emerald, and this emerald looked extraordinary.

Xiao Yan played with this beautiful ring. This ring was not a Storage Ring and had no storage space, and what was truly important was not the ring itself, but the emerald inlaid on it.

This was no ordinary gemstone. Even Xiao Yan didn't know what it was, but he knew that it was definitely not simple.

After admiring and playing with it for a while, Xiao Yan put the ring on his hand, then glanced at the Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor, and said calmly: "Who was it that said so loudly just now, saying that it was impossible to get anything? Alas, it was clearly placed inside the cave entrance for you to take, but you such fools didn't even try, and still bragged in front of me about not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth, about being a frog in a well. If I were your Old Ancestor, I would probably be so angry, not wanting something given for free." Xiao Yan had always had a venomous tongue, after all, he had refined the Netherworld Poison Flame, and he was never merciful to his enemies.

Saying the most poisonous words, slapping the hardest faces.

Since these Serpent Race Magical Beasts wanted to slap his face and mock him just now, then now, Xiao Yan slapped them in the face without any hesitation.

At this time, many of those who had mocked Xiao Yan earlier felt their old faces burning. Many people had laughed at Xiao Yan just now, and now that Xiao Yan slapped them in the face like this, the retribution came too quickly!

Of course, some clever people quickly realized that it was absolutely impossible for Xiao Yan to directly pull it out with his hand. Xiao Yan must have done something! "What big words!" The Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor's face was gloomy. As the patriarch of the Black-Eyed Serpent Clan and an Elder of Heavenly Serpent Mansion, how could it swallow such an insult from an unknown junior? More importantly, Xiao Yan had obtained a good item, and it must make sure that this item remained in Heavenly Serpent Mansion.

Immediately, it came up with a plan and sneered: "Ignorant child, do you think you are invincible just because you obtained a treasure? Now, this Emperor will teach you a lesson on behalf of your elders, and let you know that you human Alchemists are also trash."

Xiao Yan smiled coldly, naturally understanding. He flicked his finger at the Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor and said: "Since you want to be beaten, then fine, today I will beat you so badly that even your mother won't recognize you."

Xiao Yan's provocation immediately enraged the Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor, but it was also secretly delighted. As long as it found an excuse to capture Xiao Yan, then the rest would be up to Heavenly Serpent Mansion. Immediately, its face turned stern, and it roared: "Ignorant child, today this seat will definitely teach you a lesson!"

As soon as the words fell, five fingers pierced out, and black mist surged like a huge wave.

In that instant, the Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor attacked, its five fingers spread out, like a Giant Python directly taking Xiao Yan's head, and the terrifying Dou Qi power surged.

But Xiao Yan didn't move at all, instead, he put his hands behind his back, looking like he was at the mercy of others.

Of course, Xiao Yan would not allow himself to be slaughtered. Instead, Xiao Yan knew that this kind of thing should be left to 'professionals'.

"Ha! You stinky snake dares to attack!" Seeing the other party take the initiative to attack, Zi Yan was delighted, and appeared next to Xiao Yan in a flash, and suddenly Purple Light erupted.

Zi Yan grinned, the Purple Light on her right hand was extremely dense, and the space around her fist was distorted.

"Get lost!!" Facing the attack that devoured like a python, Zi Yan laughed, and her right fist slammed out, and suddenly Purple Light erupted, Dragon Qi rolled, as if a Divine Dragon had descended, and endless Dragon Might swept across the sky, extremely domineering and fierce.

With a loud bang and the sound of bones shattering, the Dou Huang-level Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor's entire arm, under Zi Yan's punch, instantly turned into a bloody mist. The Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor didn't even have time to scream before being blasted away, turning into a beautiful parabola in the sky, his fate unknown.

This scene happened too quickly for anyone to react.

One must know, the Black-Eyed Serpent Emperor was a Dou Huang of the Heavenly Serpent Mansion! Even if his strength wasn't the greatest among the Heavenly Serpent Mansion's Elders, he was still a remarkable powerhouse. Yet, facing this cute little girl, he couldn't even withstand a single move and had his arm shattered!

Zi Yan had only just entered the Dou Huang level. In a battle between equals, the Heavenly Serpent Mansion's Dou Huang couldn't even withstand a single move! If this were to spread, probably no one would believe it!

"Dragon Dragon Might?!"

"Did I just sense Dragon Qi?"

"My god, what is this little girl's true form?!"

Naturally, the Dragon Race is divided into many types. It's not like having Dragon Might guarantees invincibility. There are also Magical Beasts like the Nethersea Flood Dragon that contain a trace of Dragon Blood within them.

But without a doubt, Zi Yan's true form is definitely not simple!

Xiao Yan wasn't surprised at all that Zi Yan could defeat her opponent with one punch. If a Void Ancient Dragon couldn't defeat someone with one punch, he would instead look down on the Void Ancient Dragon Race.

Sensing something, Xiao Yan slowly turned his gaze towards the horizon. When he saw the person arriving, a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

"Long time no see, Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor. You seem to have improved a bit."
