Chapter 171: Yun Yun Requests Crystals! A Mountain-Crushing Punch!

After leaving the Serpent Empire, Xiao Ze headed towards the Mountains of Magical Beasts.

Although he had many natural treasures in his possession, most were for cultivators with water attributes, as he himself had been one.

Now, with the small and greedy rainbow snake, he needed to find some treasures that she would like.

The nest of the Winged Crystal Lion in the Mountains of Magical Beasts was an excellent choice, but before that, he needed to receive the feedback of a hundred times from the rainbow snake.

Xiao Ze wasn't very worried about the potential adverse effects of receiving feedback from the lineage of a magical beast.

Since his soul merged with the Origin Tree, Xiao Ze knew that the influence of this feedback depended solely on his own will.

These forces resided in the Origin Tree, and with his soul in control, he decided how much impact they would have on his body.

If Xiao Ze wanted to, he could transform into a rainbow snake with just a thought. But if he didn't desire it, not even a rainbow snake in front of him could detect that he had that power.

For example, the green eyes with tiny flowers that displayed the power of the Green Snake Flower Eyes were only an external manifestation.

The true source of power was in the Origin Tree. Even if his eyes were damaged, as long as the branch of the tree corresponding to the Green Snake Flower Eyes remained, he could still use that power.

That was the most dominant aspect of the Origin Tree.

"Receive the feedback of a hundred times from the rainbow snake!"

In an instant, Xiao Ze experienced again the absolute power he felt when obtaining the Green Snake Flower Eyes.

But unlike the absolute authority of the Green Snake Flower Eyes, which represented control, the rainbow snake symbolized majesty.

These two different forms of absolute power impacted Xiao Ze's understanding of authority.

Fortunately, the hundredfold feedback only lasted a moment. Soon, his eyes regained clarity.

Xiao Ze inspected his body with his spiritual perception and confirmed that he remained purely human, unaffected by the rainbow snake.

However, the physical enhancements were evident. Now, in addition to having the Green Snake Flower Eyes that controlled snake beasts, he also had the royal blood of the rainbow snake.

Xiao Ze could imagine how frustrated future snake beasts would be when facing him.

Meanwhile, because Xiao Ze had not yet reached the level of Dou Zong, most of the energy from the feedback was used to expand the Origin Tree.

This enormous energy caused the diameter of the Origin Tree to expand to more than thirty meters, significantly strengthening Xiao Ze's foundation and power.

Xiao Ze raised his right hand and focused the palm of the Grand Ocean. With the expanded diameter of the Origin Tree, his control over energy increased considerably.

What was originally a large ocean palm now shrank to the size of his hand, resembling a mark of dark blue crystal.

"From the outside, it looks similar to the Emperor's crystal mark, but its essence is completely different."

Xiao Ze looked towards two mountain peaks in the distance. With a push, the blue crystal mark flew towards one of the peaks, causing it to collapse with a deafening roar.

The powerful energy wave, accompanied by a slight moisture, was felt from a distance.

"The stronger the force of the ocean, the more terrifying the power of the Grand Ocean Palm."

Xiao Ze nodded, satisfied with the power comparable to an earth-class Dou technique. Now, he wanted to test the strength of his body. With a leap, he disappeared from his position, leaving a deep hole due to pure physical speed without using Dou Qi. In a few moments, he reached the other mountain peak, and with a simple punch, he made it collapse.

"Breaking a mountain with a punch, I wonder if this can threaten a high-level Dou Zong," Xiao Ze murmured to himself, knowing that in the Dou Qi cultivation system, the differences become greater as you advance. Even among Dou Sheng, a difference of one level was enormous, and between stars, it was insurmountable.

"Anyway, I haven't faced a true high-level expert yet, so thinking about it doesn't serve much purpose. It's time to look for the Purple Crystal."

Xiao Ze's figure disappeared, heading into the depths of the Mountains of Magical Beasts. Along the way, he used his spiritual perception to detect and collect some high-level snake beasts. Places like these, where many magical beasts congregated, were rare. In the future, when he was strong enough, he could go to Zhongzhou to collect magical beasts. Zhongzhou was where high-level magical beasts were abundant.

...

With no time to lament Medusa's transformation, Yun Yun, the leader of the Yun Lan Sect, arrived on the battlefield. In the depths of the Mountains of Magical Beasts, two Dou Huang auras faced off. One was the king of this region, the sixth-class magical beast, the Winged Purple Crystal Lion.

With its lion's head, red eyes with a purple glow, a red spiral horn on its forehead, and purple flames emanating from it, it was a beast of beauty and destruction. Its purple wings emitted fire with each flap, and its limbs covered in purple crystal shook the ground with each step.

Facing this majestic beast was a beautiful woman in a simple dress, holding a strange blue sword. With her hair tied up in an elegant bun and her serene face, she showed no fear in front of the beast.

"Human? Why have you disturbed this king?" The voice of the Winged Purple Crystal Lion resonated with an angry tone. Anyone would be angry if they were disturbed from their rest in their nest.

"I want to ask for the Purple Crystal of the Lion King. I'm willing to exchange for something you need," the woman was Yun Yun, the leader of the Yun Lan Sect, and she had come for her disciple, Nalan Yanran. The Alchemist King Gu He needed the Purple Crystal to refine a pill for Nalan Yanran. Naturally, the Winged Purple Crystal Lion didn't want to give up its precious crystal and asked for a Transformation Pill in return.

Failing to reach an agreement, the two Dou Huangs began a fierce battle. In the depths of the mountains, countless magical beasts fled. Even the shockwaves from a fight between these powerful beings could kill them.
