The Land of Techniques? What a strange place! Everyone felt curious after hearing the name of another continent. "Don't overthink it. Once you're in, you'll be scattered to different locations. Good luck!" the Void Transporter shouted at the crowd.
Then, one by one, filled with excitement, they jumped into the Void Transporter portal. "Yeah, The Land of Techniques, here I come…" Seeing their foolishness, the Void Transporter and Xiao Yan exchanged a helpless smile. "Xiao Yan, your identity is special, and your mindset is different from theirs. I have high hopes for you. The fact that you're here means you've already passed the test."
Passed the test? Xiao Yan looked at the Void Transporter in confusion. The Void Transporter realized something and said, "Hehe, I forgot to tell you. The Transmission Jade Slip I gave you was made of extremely strong material. It's difficult for an ordinary Dou God to open it, but you did. That shows you've met the requirements, and you have the ability to fulfill your mission."
Xiao Yan nodded in understanding. No wonder it was so difficult to open that jade slip; it turned out someone had done something to it.
"Since I passed the test, what is my mission?" The mission was ultimately a concern for Xiao Yan. If he didn't clarify it, he would be oppressed by these thoughts, which would hinder his growth, so he had to ask. But the Void Transporter still wore an expression of 'I'll never tell you'. "The secrets of the heavens cannot be revealed. Rely on your own strength to search and explore, and one day you will understand. Hurry up, the portal to The Land of Techniques is about to close, and there won't be a second chance. Cultivate diligently!" After saying that, the Void Transporter gestured for Xiao Yan to quickly pass through the shrinking Void Transporter portal.
The moment Xiao Yan stepped into the portal, he was incredibly excited. A new time was coming, and even stronger power awaited him. The Land of Techniques, here I come! Thinking of this, Xiao Yan revealed a meaningful smile.
It was another bout of intense dizziness, lasting for several hours. Fortunately, he was steadfast in his resolve. He didn't expect even the teleportation to be a test for all the chosen ones. He wondered if anyone else couldn't bear it and perished. Looking at the enlarged light hole in front of him, Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief. If he had to hold on for a few more minutes, he would probably have to use his Triple Flame Transformation to strengthen his body again. "…Whoosh…" With a sound of breaking air, Xiao Yan's body finally landed heavily on solid ground.
"Damn, how come there's only a Dou Low? Why is that Transporter always unfair to us in the Lin Courtyard? How can a Dou Low clean the entire Lin Courtyard? Looks like we'll have to work hard ourselves again." Xiao Yan had just recovered when he heard dissatisfied insults. Looking up, he saw five burly men grumbling… "Hey kid, what are you looking at? If you look again, I'll knock your teeth out." Those people were already angry, and now that Xiao Yan didn't know his place, he became their target for venting.
Xiao Yan saw that the other side didn't have any Dou Qi fluctuations, yet they were playing tricks on his head, a Dou God, and he couldn't help but be furious. He channeled all his Dou Qi into his fist and slammed it hard towards the burly man in front of him. "Clang…" The burly man easily grabbed Xiao Yan's fist. "A Dou Low is just a Dou Low. Looks like if I don't show you some might today, you won't know what a Technician is." The burly man mocked Xiao Yan, and with a light flick, "Bang…" Xiao Yan's body was slammed to the ground.
How could this be? Xiao Yan couldn't believe it was true. The other party didn't have any Dou Qi, so how could they easily defeat him?…The burly man lifted Xiao Yan again, "Kid, don't think you're still strong just because you were the strongest on your previous continent. This is now The Land of Techniques." … "Bang…" Xiao Yan's body was slammed to the ground again, but he didn't even have the strength to fight back.
The Land of Techniques. No wonder the Void Transporter warned them to be discreet. It appeared that only Technicians could dominate this continent, while Dou Gods were essentially Dou Lows. So that's how it was. Xiao Yan regretted his recklessness, failing to heed the Void Transporter's words. But now, it was too late. He was going to get beaten up.
"Bang... bang... bang..." The sound of repeated blows against the ground crackled like fireworks. "Boy, remember, The Land of Techniques isn't something you lowly Dou Lows can compete in. If you want to get stronger, you must learn Technique." The burly man didn't intend to kill Xiao Yan, but he still warned him. Xiao Yan, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, endured the pain and shakily rose from the ground. "Technique... I swear that after I master Technique, I will repay you tenfold!" Xiao Yan's oath sent chills down the spines of those around him. The intensity of his outburst was astonishing.
Seeing that Xiao Yan could stand up despite such severe injuries, the burly man thought, Will this oath be fulfilled? However, he admired Xiao Yan. "Good, boy, I'll be waiting for you to seek revenge. Don't disappoint us." Then he said to Xiao Yan, "Boy, you've been assigned to our Lin Courtyard. From now on, you must work for Lin Courtyard. You're currently at the lowest level, so you'll only be responsible for odd jobs. When you achieve outstanding results or someone replaces your position, your rank will be upgraded. Therefore, to survive in The Land of Techniques, you must have extremely strong strength, and secondly, you need to rely on schemes."
"What? Odd jobs! I came to this continent to do odd jobs for you? This world is so unfair." Hearing the other party's assignment, Xiao Yan felt dejected. He never expected that as a former emperor, he would end up doing odd jobs here. Considering the situation, Xiao Yan could only sigh inwardly. If he didn't listen, the other party wouldn't show him any mercy. He slightly nodded to the burly man.
"Alright, boy, come with me to Lin Courtyard immediately. No matter what your name is now, as long as you're from our Lin Courtyard, you must take the surname Lin. You can figure out your given name yourself. What's wrong with that Void Transporter this time? He only assigned one person to our Lin Courtyard. I'm going to complain to him." The burly man ordered Xiao Yan to follow him, muttering a few curses at the Void Transporter, seemingly annoyed that he had only transported one person.
The journey seemed long, and they walked for a long time without reaching the end. Xiao Yan, accustomed to flying, felt a bit uncomfortable. Watching the several burly men in front who were still walking leisurely, Xiao Yan really didn't understand what they were thinking. They insisted on walking this difficult path. They didn't want to fly, but I will fly. Thinking of this, Xiao Yan channeled his Dou Qi, stepped on the void, and soared into the air... "Thud..." As soon as he jumped up, he unexpectedly fell down again. What was going on? A sense of confusion welled up in Xiao Yan's heart. He tried again, and fell again... "Whoosh..." A pair of bone wings sprang from Xiao Yan's shoulders. After a fierce flapping, Xiao Yan's body only floated for a few seconds before falling again, and his stamina was almost completely depleted.
Seeing Xiao Yan like this, the several burly men snorted coldly. "Boy, don't waste your energy. The Land of Techniques has a gravitational pull on objects that is 1000 times greater than normal. Just follow us obediently, you fool." They sped up their pace. Were they almost there? The outline of buildings gradually appeared ahead.
Is this Lin Courtyard? Technique, I'm coming! I'm here for my oath. You burly man, just you wait, one day... A pair of bone wings sprang from Xiao Yan's shoulders. After a fierce flapping, Xiao Yan's body only floated for a few seconds before falling again, and his stamina was almost completely depleted.
Seeing Xiao Yan like this, several burly men snorted coldly. "Kid, don't waste your energy. The Land of Techniques's gravitational pull on objects that leave the void is 1000 times stronger than usual. Just come with us obediently, you fool." They quickened their pace.
Were they almost there? The outlines of buildings gradually appeared ahead.
Was this Lin Courtyard? Technique, I'm here. I've come for the sake of my oath. You, the burly man in front, just you wait, someday…
