Chapter 2 First Approaching the Dou Qi Continent
The moon is like a silver plate, and the sky is full of stars.
At the top of the cliff, Xiao Yan lay on the grass, holding a green grass in his mouth, chewing it slightly, allowing the faint bitterness to spread in his mouth...
He raised his white palm and blocked his eyes. His eyes passed through the gaps in his fingers and looked at the huge silver moon in the sky.
"Oh..." Thinking of the afternoon test, Xiao Yan sighed lightly, pulled his palm back lazily, put his hands on his head, his eyes a little dazed...
"It's been fifteen years..." A low murmur suddenly spit out of the boy's mouth without any limit.
In Xiao Yan's heart, there is a secret that only he knows: he is not a person from this world, or Xiao Yan's soul does not belong to this world. He comes from a blue planet called Earth. As for why he came here, he cannot explain this bizarre passage. However, after living for a while, he still realized it later: he traveled through time!
As he grows older, Xiao Yan has also gained some vague understanding of this continent...
The mainland is called Douqi Continent. There are no magical techniques commonly found in novels on the mainland, and Douqi is the only main theme of the mainland!
On this continent, the cultivation of Dou Qi has developed to its peak with the efforts of countless generations. Moreover, due to the continuous reproduction of Dou Qi, it has even spread to the people. This has also led to Dou Qi becoming closely related to human daily life. In this way, the importance of Dou Qi in the continent has become irreplaceable!
Because of the extreme reproduction of Dou Qi, countless methods of Dou Qi cultivation were differentiated from this main line. The so-called hands have lengths and shorts, and the methods of Dou Qi cultivation that were differentiated were naturally strong and weak.
After summary statistics, the Douqi Continent divided the level of Douqi martial arts from high to low into four levels and twelve levels: heaven, earth, Xuan, Huang!
And each level is divided into three levels: primary, middle and high!
The level of the Dou Qi martial arts practiced is also the key to determining the level of success in the future. For example, those who practice the Xuan-level intermediate martial arts are naturally better than those of the same level who practice the Yellow-level advanced martial arts.
In the Douqi Continent, the determination of strength and weakness depends on three conditions.
First of all, the most important thing is of course your own strength. If your own strength is only at the level of a one-star Douzer, then even if you practice the rare martial arts at the heavenly level, it will be difficult to defeat a fighting master who practices the yellow-level martial arts.
Secondly, it is the martial arts! If your martial arts level is much higher than that of the opponent, then in the competition, you will know all kinds of advantages with just one touch.
The last one is called fighting skills!
As the name suggests, this is a special skill to exert fighting spirit. Fighting skills are also divided into levels on the continent. Generally speaking, they are also divided into four levels: Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang.
There are countless fighting skills in the Douqi Continent, but most of the popular fighting skills that are circulating are only around the yellow level. If you want to obtain more advanced fighting skills, you must join the sect or the Douqi Academy on the mainland.
Of course, some martial arts left by predecessors through adventures, or their own matching fighting skills, will be more powerful when combined with each other.
Only by relying on these three conditions can we determine which one is stronger and which one is weak. In general, if we can have a high-level Douqi Kung Fu, the future benefits will be self-evident...
However, it is difficult for ordinary people to obtain advanced Dou Qi cultivation techniques. At most, the techniques circulated in the ordinary class are only yellow-level techniques. Some relatively powerful families or small and medium-sized sects should have Xuan-level cultivation methods. For example, the family where Xiao Yan is located, the top-level technique is that only the clan leader is qualified to practice: Mad Lion Angry Gang, which is a wind attribute and an intermediate Dou Qi cultivation technique of Xuan-level.
Above the Xuan level, there is the Earth level, but this profound skill may only be able to possess such transcendent forces and great empires...
As for the Heavenly Level... it has not appeared for hundreds of years.
Theoretically, it is basically difficult for ordinary people to obtain advanced martial arts, but there is nothing absolute. The Douqi Continent is vast and has thousands of races. To the north of the continent, there are barbarians who are said to be extremely powerful and can merge with beast souls. To the south of the continent, there are also various high-level monster families with extremely high IQs, and the dark races that are famous for their strange and viciousness, etc.
Due to the vastness of the region, there are also many unknown unknown hermits. After their lives are at the end, they are introverted and may hide their life-making skills in a certain place, waiting for those who are destined to take them. On the Douqi Continent, a saying has been circulated: If one day you fall off a cliff and fall into a cave, don’t panic, and take two steps forward, maybe you will become a strong man!
This statement is not false. In the nearly thousand years of history of the mainland, there is no such story of becoming a strong man by relying on adventures.
The consequence of this story is that it has created a large number of dreamers who are waiting at the edge of the cliff every day to get peerless skills. Of course, most of these people return with broken arms and legs...
In short, this is a continent full of miracles and creating miracles!
Of course, if you want to practice the secrets of fighting spirit, you need to become a real fighting player before you can be qualified. Now Xiao Yan seems to be very far away from that distance...
"Bah." Spit out the grass roots in his mouth, Xiao Yan suddenly jumped up, his face was ferocious, and he roared at the night sky with a loss of composure: "I, you nnd, do you want me to come over and play with me as a waste? Grass!"
In his previous life, Xiao Yan was just an extremely ordinary member of mediocre sentient beings, money, beauty, these things were simply two parallel lines with him, and there would never be any intersection. However, when he came to this Douqi Continent, Xiao Yan was surprised to find that perhaps it was because of his experience in being a human being in two lives that his soul was much stronger than ordinary people!
You should know that in the Douqi Continent, the soul is born. Perhaps it can become slightly stronger as it grows older, but I have never heard of any martial arts that can cultivate the soul alone. Even if it is a heavenly level skill, it is impossible! This is common sense in the Douqi Continent.
The strengthening of the soul also created Xiao Yan's cultivation talent, and also created his name as a genius.
When an ordinary and mediocre person knows that he has the capital to be noticed by countless people, if he does not have enough concentration, it will be difficult to grasp his original heart. Obviously, Xiao Yan, who was only an ordinary person in his previous life, did not have such superhuman concentration. Therefore, after he began to practice the fighting spirit, he chose to become a genius that is noticed, rather than gradually growing in silence!
If there was no accident, Xiao Yan might have been able to grow older and older as a genius. Unfortunately, at the age of eleven, the name of genius was gradually deprived of by sudden changes, and genius also became a waste of ridicule among passers-by overnight!
...
After roaring for a few times, Xiao Yan's mood slowly calmed down, and his face regained his usual loneliness. At this point, no matter how angry he was, he could not recover the cyclone of the fighting that he had worked hard to practice.
He shook his head bitterly. Xiao Yan felt a little aggrieved. After all, he didn't know anything about what happened to his body. On weekdays, he did not find anything wrong. His soul became stronger and stronger as he grew older, and the speed of absorbing the Dou Qi was even stronger than the peak state a few years ago. These conditions all mean that his talent had never weakened, but the Dou Qi that entered his body disappeared without exception. The strange situation made Xiao Yan feel sad...
Sighing sadly, Xiao Yan raised his palm and there was a black ring on his finger. The ring was very simple. It was cast from any material. There were also some blurry patterns on it. This was the only gift my mother gave him before she died. Since he was four years old, he had been wearing it for ten years. His mother's relics made Xiao Yan also have a attachment to it. His fingers gently stroked the ring. Xiao Yan smiled bitterly: "In recent years, he has really disappointed his mother's expectations..."
He let out a deep breath, Xiao Yan suddenly turned his head and smiled warmly at the dark woods: "Father, are you here?"
Although the Dou Qi is only three stages, Xiao Yan's soul perception is much sharper than a five-star Dou Ji. When he talked about his mother before, he noticed a trace of movement in the woods.
"Haha, Yan'er, it's so late, why are you still here?" After a moment of silence, the man's concern laughter came from the woods.
The branches swayed, and a middle-aged man jumped out, with a smile on his face, staring at his son standing in the moonlight.
The middle-aged man was wearing luxurious gray clothes, with a bit of majestic steps between dragons and tigers, and the pair of thick eyebrows on his face added a bit of heroism to him. He is the current leader of the Xiao family and Xiao Yan's father, the five-star master, Xiao Zhan!
"Father, aren't you still resting?" Looking at the middle-aged man, Xiao Yan's smile became stronger. Although he had memories of his previous life, the father in front of him has been spoiling him in every way. After he was in a downturn, his pampering increased instead of reducing. Such behavior made Xiao Yan willing to call him father.
"Yan'er, are you still thinking about the afternoon test?" Xiao Zhan smiled when he stepped forward.
"Haha, what's there to think about? It's just expected." Xiao Yan shook his head in an old age, but his smile was a little reluctant.
"Oh..." Looking at Xiao Yan's pretty face, which was still a little tender, Xiao Zhan sighed, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "Yan'er, are you fifteen years old?"
"Yeah, father."
"In another year, it seems... it's time to hold the adulthood ceremony..." Xiao Zhan said with a wry smile.
"Yes, father, there is one more year left!" Xiao Yan replied calmly, "What does the adult ceremony mean? He naturally knew very well that as long as he had passed the adult ceremony, he would have no potential to practice and would be disqualified from entering the Douqi Pavilion to find Douqi Gong, and he would be assigned to various industries of the family to manage some ordinary things for the family. This is the family's rule. Even if his father is the patriarch, it would not be possible to change it!
After all, if you don’t become a fighter before the age of twenty-five, you will not be recognized by the family!
"I'm sorry, Yan'er, if your fighting spirit is not as high as seventh stages in a year, then my father will have to endure the pain and allocate you to the family's property. After all, the father is not the only one who decides this family. Those old guys can wait for their father to make mistakes at any time..." Looking at the calm Xiao Yan, Xiao Zhan sighed a little guiltily.
"Father, I will work hard. In a year, I will definitely reach the seventh stage of the fighting spirit!" Xiao Yan comforted with a smile.
"One year, four sections? Haha, if it were the past, it might be possible, but now... there is basically no chance..." Although he was comforting his father, Xiao Yan smiled bitterly in his heart.
Xiao Zhan, who also knew Xiao Yan's background very well, could only sigh and respond. He knew how difficult it was to practice four stages of fighting spirit a year. He patted his head and suddenly laughed: "It's getting late, go back and rest. Tomorrow, there will be distinguished guests in the family, don't lose your respect."
"Disciple? Who are you?" Xiao Yan asked curiously.
"I'll know tomorrow." Xiao Zhan squeezed his eyes at Xiao Yan, and Xiao Zhan laughed.
"Don't worry, father, I will do my best!" Xiao Yan murmured while stroking the ancient ring on his finger.
The moment Xiao Yan raised his head, the black ancient ring in his finger suddenly lit up an extremely faint and strange light, and the light disappeared in the blink of an eye, without anybody's notice...
Xiao Zhan shook his head and turned to leave. Suddenly he heard Xiao Yan's voice sound. He turned around and looked into the sky with Xiao Yan's gaze. He saw a ball of colored light falling from small to large. When it had become as big as a washbasin, the falling speed of the colored light ball became significantly slower. When Xiao Zhan and his son saw the colored light ball clearly, they were surprised because there was a person in the ball of light, a boy who looked no bigger than Xiao Yan. But what surprised the two of them the most was that the teenager had a colorful wing of energy emitted from behind.
"The powerful Dou Ling? No, it's the Dou King, or... the Dou Emperor?" Xiao Zhan murmured in a daze.
As he spoke, the strange boy's energy wings suddenly faded away, and finally became crystal clear and then disappeared, but the boy was still floating in the air for several meters above the ground.
The boy opened his eyes and looked around. Suddenly, he vomited blood, pressed his chest with pain, and looked down. When he saw Xiao Zhan, the boy smiled happily, "Father, have you come to pick Chen'er?" After that, the strange boy closed his eyes and fell down at Xiao Zhan. Xiao Zhan subconsciously stepped forward and hugged the boy. After a closer look, he was just a coma. Xiao Yan ran closer and looked at him and asked, "Father, he... is really a Dou King or Dou Emperor strongman?" Xiao Yan couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
Xiao Zhan shook his head, "Father is not sure. According to his ability to fly high in the sky with both energy wings, he should be at least seven-star Douwang or above, but we obviously didn't feel any fighting spirit or pressure on him just now. So... let's wait until he wakes up before talking. Yan'er comes with you, so you'll be responsible for taking care of him. Whether he is a strong Douwang or Douwang, he must be a master. Maybe this is your opportunity. If he can give you some advice, then maybe it's not impossible for you to restore your talent."
Xiao Yan nodded and followed Xiao Zhan to the small wooden house where he practiced and lived.
