Chapter 117: Flying Dou Technique: Eagle Wing

Xiao

Yan carried the keys to the boxes and once again, he touched the warm

metal lock. Tilting his head and glancing at the Fairy Doctor who had

finished digging out all the medicinal plants, he smiled and said,

“Hurry over here. I don’t want to be accused of trying to pocket

everything when I open these boxes.”

“At least you have some sort of conscience.”

The

Fairy Doctor raised her nose, carried the ten plus bottles in her chest

and placed them on the stone table. Finally, she unwillingly selected

six bottles and handed them to Xiao Yan: “Hey, these are yours.”

Xiao

Yan received them with a smile, took a brief glance and stored them

into his storage ring. The Ice Spirit Blazing Grass was already in his

hands so the other valuable medicinal plants were not very important to

Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan waved the three black keys in front of the Fairy Doctor and smiled: “Then I will be opening them.”

“Open

them!” After throwing Xiao Yan an irritated look, the Fairy Doctor

quickly slotted the jade bottles around her waist and chest.

Immediately, her narrow waist appeared much fuller than before.

Xiao

Yan licked his lips as he stared at the stone containers. He randomly

selected one of the keys, lifted the first lock and carefully inserted

it.

“Not this…” The key stuck halfway causing Xiao Yan to shrug and replace it with a second key.

“Wrong again.”

Helplessly shaking his head, Xiao Yan held the last key tightly and once again carefully inserted it into the keyhole.

Seeing

the key slowly disappearing into the lock, Xiao Yan and the Fairy

Doctor both unintentionally held their breath. The only noise in the

entire room came from the key being pushed through the keyhole of the

metal lock.

“Clang…” Suddenly, a light clear noise was emitted from within the room, prompting Xiao Yan’s hand to freeze.

“It’s unlocked.” Seeing the lock’s shackle being launched from the lock, Xiao Yan let out a relieved sigh and said.

“Hurry up and open it.” The Fairy Doctor’s face was full of desire and happiness as she said in an impatient voice.

Xiao

Yan glanced at the anxious Fairy Doctor but did not heed her call.

Instead, he grabbed her hand and stepped back. He then lined up his palm

with the box and unleashed an intense force from his palm which lifted

the lid of the stone box.

After the lid was lifted, Xiao Yan

waited a moment longer and sighed in relief after seeing that there was

no reaction. Glancing at the Fairy Doctor who had her hands around her

chest while coldly staring at him, Xiao Yan simply shrugged, “It is

always good to be a little careful.”

“If you are thrown into the

Magic Beast Mountain Range, I think that you will have a happier time

living there than in the outside world. The reason being that even those

Magic Beasts are not as careful as you are.” The Fairy Doctor curled

her lips and said.

“I share the same thoughts.” Xiao Yan touched his nose and laughed.

After

throwing a cutting gaze at the shameless man beside her, the Fairy

Doctor walked towards the stone table. She looked into the opened stone

box and was shocked. With a face filled with joy, she quickly reached

her hand into it and retrieved an ancient rainbow colored scroll.

“What is this?” Xiao Yan curiously looked over and asked.

“A Poison Book that records the methods of making poison.” The Fairy Doctor flipped open the scroll and said with a smile.

“A

Poison Book?” Raising his eyebrow in surprise, Xiao Yan took the scroll

from the Fairy Doctor’s hand and glanced through it. Seeing the few

words written on the side of the seven colored scroll, Xiao Yan said in

amazement: “Rainbow Poison Book? There is actually something that

focuses on how to create poison? Don’t tell me that the one who left

this behind was also a physician?”

Physicians were usually the

only ones in the Dou Qi continent who used poison to protect themselves.

These people who excelled at using such positions were usually called

Poison Master within the continent. However, the status of a Poison

Master was still a far cry from that of an alchemist.

“Perhaps so.

But you’re not allowed to split this with me. Due to my elemental

affinity, I cannot become an alchemist so I can only rely on these

things.” A dejected expression appeared on the Fairy Doctor’s face after

she spoke. It was clear that her greatest desire was to become an

alchemist and not a Poison Master that people both hated and disliked.

Eyeing

the dejected looking Fairy Doctor, Xiao Yan smiled, handed over the

seven colored scroll and said, “This is quite a good thing but it would

require much time and effort in order to master it. Just training… Dou

Qi consumes all of my energy. I’m not stupid enough to start on

something else, biting off more than I can chew.”

“Thanks.”

The Fairy Doctor felt a deep relief in her heart upon hearing Xiao Yan’s words and gave the latter a grateful nod.

“You

can put away what you have in your hands. I may not be considered a

gentleman but given our our current relationship as partners, I would

not try to take everything for myself.” Eyeing the Fairy Doctor who was

slowing putting away the rainbow scroll, Xiao Yan smiled and said in a

bland voice.

The Fairy Doctor’s face was stunned as embarrassment

surfaced. She unclenched her hand, revealing a small bag of green powder

on it.

“I…” Being caught red handed by Xiao Yan, the red faced Fairy Doctor was at a loss for words.

“Forget

it. Being a women, it is only natural for you to take some preventive

measures when you come with me in search for treasures.” Xiao Yan

shrugged and said indifferently.

“Thank you.” Once again, the Fairy Doctor gave a grateful thanks as she hurriedly put away the green powder in her hand.

Xiao

Yan touched his face and shifted his gaze towards the second stone

container. He inserted a key in and slowly probed the interior.

“What

was the effect of the green powder?” As the key in his hand was slowly

being inserted deeper into the lock, Xiao Yan randomly threw out a

question.

“This was made with Drunken Dragon Grass and a couple of

other medicinal ingredients with a sedative effect. Once it is breathed

into the body, it would cause one to fall asleep for at least half a

day. But this powder is only a simple poison. Anyone with some strength

would be able to use Dou Qi to suppress the effect and force it out of

the body.” The Fairy Doctor embarrassingly replied.

“Luckily it is

not some lethal poison. At least you are not so vicious.” Xiao Yan

rubbed his lips together, rotated his wrist and smiled: “It’s opened.”

Following Xiao Yan’s voice, the tightly shut stone box began to slowly open.

Under the light of the Moonstones, everything in the stone box was immediately revealed to Xiao Yan and the Fairy Doctor.

“Another scroll?” Xiao Yan lifted his eyebrow upon noticing a black scroll that was placed in the box.

He

reached his hand into the box, took the scroll out and flipped through

it. Finally, his gaze paused on the small words at the edge of the

scroll: “High Xuan Flying Dou Technique: Eagle Wing.”

“Flying Dou

Technique?” Xiao Yan’s eyes gradually became bigger as he muttered the

unfamiliar words. In his shock, he said with a hoarse voice: “This is

actually a rare Flying Dou Technique?”

“Flying Dou Technique? What is that?”

Hearing

this name for the first time, the Fairy Doctor blinked her eyes

doubtfully. She had heard of Attack Dou Techniques, Defense Dou

Techniques, Agility Dou Technique and many others but it was the first

time she had heard of a Flying Dou Technique.

“As the name

suggest, this Dou Technique can allow a person to fly in the air.” Xiao

Yan smacked his lips in surprise as he explained.

“Fly? Isn’t that

something that requires the strength of at least a Dou Ling?” The Fairy

Doctor displayed an initial shock at the explanation before appearing

confused.

In the Dou Qi continent, only with the strength of a Dou

Ling can one leave the ground and fly for a short distance. Only after

one’s strength had reached that of a Dou Wang or Dou Huang can one use

the Dou Qi to form a pair of energy wings on one’s back. These wings

would enable them to overcome their bond to the ground and fly amongst

the clouds.

As for the Flying Dou Techniques, they were a strange

secret technique that could enable the practitioner to form two small

extensions that protruded from the veins on one’s back. With these two

extension, one would be able to form a pair of wings and fly in the air

even if one did not possess the strength of a Dou Wang.

Flying was

something that was a great temptation to many. In order to fulfill this

temptation, many strong people put in all their effort to reach for the

unreachable dream of becoming a Dou Wang. At the same time, there were

also many who wanted to find a shortcut by finding this rare and

valuable Flying Type Dou Technique.

Xiao Yan slowly let out a long

breath as he held the black scroll in his hand. He forcefully

suppressed the happiness in him before waving his hand at the Fairy

Doctor.

“I know. This goes to you right?” Having observed Xiao

Yan’s action, the Fairy Doctor understood his intention and helplessly

nodded.

“Haha, everyone takes what they require.” Xiao Yan

grinned. His acquisitions today had almost caused his face to be

paralysed from smiling.

“There’s still one more. Let’s hurry. We

will leave once we open it.” the Fairy Doctor shifted her gaze to the

last stone box and urged.

“Hum.” With his two acquisitions, Xiao

Yan’s body was full of energy. He held the last key that was not used

and prepared to open the stone box.

The spacious room once again

became quiet. Just as Xiao Yan bent his body and was about to open the

box, he suddenly stiffened. He quickly turned around and his face

suddenly became dark.

“Someone’s coming!”

“What?” Hearing

the words, the Fairy Doctor was also shocked. An instant later, she

shook her head: “That’s impossible. Only the two of us know about this

place.”

“I have not misheard. There are quite a few people.” Xiao

Yan looked at the Fairy Doctor with a terrible face. A coldness flashed

in his eyes.

“You suspect that I have called these people over?”

Seeing

Xiao Yan’s expression, anger erupted on the Fairy Doctor’s face. “Had I

wanted to harm you, you would have died many times over.”

Seeing

that the anger on the Fairy Doctor’s face appeared genuine, Xiao Yan

pressed his eyebrows together and quickly turned around. He attempted to

insert the key in his hand into the lock but in his anxiousness, he

repeatedly failed to do so.

“Dammit!” Letting out a cry of anger,

Xiao Yan grabbed the stone box with both hands in an attempt to lift it.

Unfortunately, he found that the container was stuck onto the stone

table.

“Stupid.” Xiao Yan once again scolded with an ashen face

before slowly letting out a breath. In a cold voice, he said: “They are

here.”

Hearing Xiao Yan’s words, the Little Doctor quickly

directed her gaze towards the rock door. Her ears had also picked up the

sound of footsteps approaching.

“Ke ke, Fairy Doctor. Thank you for leading the way. It seemed that the information we managed to get was true.”

Over

ten figures slowly entered from the darkness outside the door while the

familiar and pleased laughter echoed within the room.

“Mu Li!”

Upon hearing the voice, the Fairy Doctor immediately clenched her teeth tightly.
