272. Tianluan Clan
"The reputation and strength of the Luan Clan seem somewhat mismatched," Xiao Yan remarked.
On the continent, the fame of the One Palace, One Tower, Two Sects, Three Valleys, and Four Directions Pavilion is renowned and known to all. In comparison, the Tianluan Clan is relatively unknown.
"Our demon beast lineage is inherently complex, and after that battle with the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, most of our clan only wanted to develop peacefully." At this point, Mu Qingluan seemed to have thought of something and muttered, "But Grandpa said that we are just waiting for an opportunity."
Just then, the previously stable spatial channel suddenly changed, the spatial energy became somewhat unstable, and the chaotic spatial aura was immediately detected by Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan was also startled and immediately flew to the top of the space ship. His first thought was of the space storm that had caused him so much suffering.
Fortunately, although it is somewhat unstable, it has not yet formed a true spatial storm. After all, the spatial passage was created by a Dou Zun powerhouse, and no matter how well it is maintained, some problems will inevitably occur. It is obviously impossible to achieve perfection by relying solely on a Dou Zong to maintain it.
However, these were not issues that Xiao Yan needed to consider. He simply ensured the safe passage of the spaceship as it left the final section of the space tunnel leading to the Tianluan Clan.
The spaceship emerged from the passage as a streak of light, a commotion that caught the attention of those guarding the passage.
After they clearly saw the spaceship that Xiao Yan and his companion were riding, the guards who were originally responsible for protecting them also flew forward.
This is a top-tier spaceship! Everyone on board is either rich or powerful, and it's always good to befriend anyone, no matter who they are.
Xiao Yan had no intention of lingering here. He led Mu Qingluan towards the area where the Tianluan Clan was located. Their flying speed, which was like chasing the moon, caused a small commotion among the guards.
"I wonder what kind of important person has come here this time."
"That's not something you or I need to consider. Just stay on guard."
……
Mu Qingluan's Tianluan clan was, after all, a magical beast, and they lived in seclusion in a mountain range.
The closer they got, the fewer human figures they could sense. Mu Qingluan explained that humans were very rare in areas inhabited by large magical beast families. Although the relationship between magical beasts and humans in Zhongzhou was delicate, they generally had little interaction, and people like Mu Qingluan and Feng Qing'er were few and far between.
As they drew closer, the Tianluan Mountains came into view. This vast mountain range, stretching beyond the horizon, was extremely magnificent, and a powerful aura emanated from it.
Xiao Yan could see the center of the mountain range at a glance. It was composed of five peaks, each significantly taller than the others, and their arrangement, while seemingly chaotic, was actually quite orderly.
The location of the Tianluan Clan should not be underestimated. Xiao Yan sensed that if he recklessly barged into this formation, he would suffer a great loss.
Mu Qingluan promptly explained to Xiao Yan, "Senior brother, this is an array formation built by our clansmen based on the terrain of this mountain range. It's no worse than yours, is it?"
Compared to humans, magical beasts possess greater initial strength and unique talents. However, humans also have their own advantages; their mastery of external objects is unmatched by magical beasts. Therefore, while many powerful individuals can emerge from the magical beast population, those skilled in alchemy, weapon crafting, and formations are extremely rare, their proportion being pitifully low compared to humans.
The fact that the Tianluan Clan was able to set up such a formation by taking advantage of the terrain is quite remarkable. Almost all the forces in Zhongzhou would set up special formations at their headquarters to protect their sects.
"How about it, Senior Brother? Do you want to give it a try?" Mu Qingluan looked at Xiao Yan beside her with a smile in her eyes. Mu Qingluan's mood had improved a lot after returning home.
Xiao Yan waved his hand and said, "I already need the help of the Tianluan Clan. If you were to break through the formation with me here, wouldn't I be considered a troublemaker?"
For Xiao Yan, the most important thing right now is to obtain the eighth-order Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast Demon Core from the Heavenly Luan Clan, and there is absolutely no need to cause any unnecessary trouble.
Seeing that Xiao Yan wasn't fooled, Mu Qingluan chuckled, and then a flash of blue light appeared in her blinking eyes.
Then he led Xiao Yan towards the central area of the Five Peaks. After Xiao Yan flew into the central area of the Five Peaks, he suddenly felt a blur before his eyes, and then the scene before him completely changed.
The once empty central area of the Five Peaks suddenly emanated a powerful aura, with clear chanting sounds echoing between the mountains. Xiao Yan sensed that the wind-attribute battle qi within the Five Peaks was exceptionally rich and extremely pure, making it an absolute dream cultivation ground for both humans and beasts who cultivate wind-attribute battle qi.
Moreover, Xiao Yan also noticed that the five peaks, under the arrangement of the Tianluan Clan experts, had actually become a natural fog array, and the scenery inside was completely different from that outside.
Without the guidance of someone from the Tianluan clan, getting here wouldn't have been so easy.
As an alchemist, Xiao Yan immediately sensed the aroma of the many medicinal herbs in the Tianluan Clan. Just by smelling them, Xiao Yan realized that this place was paradise for alchemists as well.
The Tianluan Clan, with five Dou Zun level experts, naturally has a mountain range full of exotic flowers and rare herbs.
Giant azure phoenixes emerged from the depths of the valley, their feathers shimmering with a faint luster, like stars in the sky. The flapping of their wings stirred up gentle breezes, filling the entire valley with life and vitality.
"It's truly magnificent." Xiao Yan had seen mountain ranges inhabited by magical beasts before, but compared to the Tianluan Mountain Range he was seeing now, they were insignificant.
Such a scene of abundant fighting spirit and rare plants and spirit beasts among the Five Peaks of Tianluan could only be found among a powerful beast clan like the Tianluan Clan.
At the same time, Xiao Yan also noticed that in the central area of this mountain range, there were also buildings resembling human structures. From a distance, they appeared quite grand, but upon closer inspection, they were ultimately somewhat crude compared to human architecture.
The sudden appearance of Xiao Yan and Mu Qingluan also alerted the Tianluan Clan. Shortly after the two appeared, a group of people came to their front.
There were also five figures on the back of the five-headed blue phoenix. After all, the Heavenly Phoenix Clan was a major clan of beast races, so although the number of Transformation Pills was small, they were not particularly rare in the Heavenly Phoenix Clan.
The leader approached and recognized Mu Qingluan, asking, "Qingluan? Weren't you studying under Venerable Feng at the Starfall Pavilion? Why are you back today?"
