Chapter 1: Saving Yun Yun, the Sect Leader of Yunlan Sect 

Under the vast blue sky, fierce energy fluctuations echoed like muffled thunder, painting the sky with a mix of azure and crimson hues. Even the white clouds were tinged with these colors, creating an awe-inspiring spectacle.

On a concealed treetop below, a man dressed in black martial attire, supporting himself against the trunk, half-crouched as he gazed at the scene in the sky. His name was Chen Mo. He murmured to himself, "Dou Qi Continent, I can't believe I've actually transmigrated into Battle Through the Heavens..."

(The reason for his transmigration isn't detailed, as it's just filler.)

As an avid fan of online novels and having read thousands of them, Chen Mo was naturally very familiar with the famous novel Battle Through the Heavens, which once captivated readers nationwide.

The phrase "Thirty years east, thirty years west, do not bully the young and poor" ignited the passion of countless young readers.

Although now "dou qi transforms into a horse, how terrifying" is a common joke about the novel, it's undeniable that Battle Through the Heavens accompanied us through a wonderful period and became a classic that many authors drew inspiration from.

It's considered the progenitor of genres like fantasy withdrawal and the master-disciple trope.

Suddenly, a system notification rang out: "Ding, you have triggered the main hidden quest: Save Yun Yun, the Sect Leader of Yunlan Sect."

"Completing this hidden main quest will grant you a chance to open a King's Treasure Chest, and 100 luck points (which can be used to exchange for silver, gold, platinum, diamond, and king treasure chests, as well as rare herbs, cultivation techniques, and combat skills)."

A pale blue interface appeared before Chen Mo as the system menu activated.

Name: Chen Mo

Race: Human

Luck Points: 0

Cultivation Techniques: None

"Save Yun Yun?"

"Holy crap, this is a golden opportunity!"

Seeing the mission issued by the system, Chen Mo couldn't help but exclaim. This was indeed a chance.

It was well-known that the key point in Xiao Yan and Yun Yun's relationship in the novel was when Xiao Yan saved Yun Yun's life in the Magic Beast Mountain Range, providing her with some rather intimate healing.

"If I replicate the scene where Xiao Yan saves Yun Yun, wouldn't that mean..."

"Hehehe!"

As a fan of Battle Through the Heavens, Chen Mo was quite dissatisfied with the ending where the main character didn't end up with Yun Yun. He had been upset about it for several days.

After all, readers love to insert themselves into the story!

Bah, shameless!

With this in mind, Chen Mo fixed his gaze on the white-robed woman in the sky, waiting for her duel with the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King.

In the novel, Yun Yun was severely injured by the Lion King's ultimate move, escaping only to fall into the river, where she was conveniently found by Xiao Yan, leading to the subsequent plot developments.

"Purple Spirit Crystal? My Purple Crystal Winged Lion Clan sheds only a tiny piece every twenty years. Do you think you can just ask for it and get it?" the Lion King roared.

"I can trade you something you need in exchange."

Man and beast conversed in the sky.

"Trade? Perfect! I'm currently in the process of transforming. If you can get me a Transformation Pill, I will give you a Purple Spirit Crystal. How about it?" the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King laughed.

Chen Mo, naturally, could hear the conversation due to the Lion King's loud voice.

"Just as I thought, the dialogue matches the novel exactly."

A seven-tier Transformation Pill was something Yun Yun, still at the Dou Huang (Battle Emperor) level and in the novice village, couldn't possibly produce.

"Next, they should start fighting," Chen Mo thought.

Sure enough.

Yun Yun raised her azure longsword and said helplessly, "If that's the case, then I'll have to take it by force."

The battle was imminent.

According to the novel, this battle would last a long time, and based on the storyline, the protagonist Xiao Yan should be hiding somewhere, watching.

If that's the case...

"Concealment Technique!"

Chen Mo recited the incantation for the Concealment Technique. As the system-bound host, it was only natural he had received a newbie gift pack.

The Concealment Technique and his peak nine-star Dou Zhe cultivation level were part of this gift pack.

Concealment Technique: Allows one to hide their aura and cultivation level from detection by stronger entities. As one's cultivation improves, the level required to detect the user also increases.

"With my current level, as long as I'm careful, no one below the Dou Wang (Battle King) level should be able to detect me."

"Time to scout the area."

First, he searched for the waterfall described in the novel, marked it to ensure he could get there quickly, and then left the spot.

At the peak of a certain mountain, a large cave entrance was partially hidden by tree branches.

From a distance away, Chen Mo sighed.

"Sure enough, there are high-level magic beasts guarding it. I thought I could steal something, but it seems I was too optimistic."

"With my current cultivation level, even with the Concealment Technique, rushing in would be suicide."

Abandoning this dangerous idea, Chen Mo returned to a bush near the waterfall and continued watching the battle in the sky.

Meanwhile, Yao Lao (Medicine Elder) glanced at the distant waterfall.

"Hmm?"

"Teacher, what's wrong?" Xiao Yan also glanced back and asked.

"Nothing, maybe I was mistaken?" Perhaps the fluctuations caused by the battle were too intense. Yao Lao didn't pay much attention after taking another look and not finding anything unusual.

The battle continued until the sun was low in the sky. With a roar from the Lion King, a purple light enveloped the area.

"Seal!" Yao Lao provided commentary.

...

"Wind's Extreme, Falling Kill!"

Not to be outdone, Yun Yun unleashed her ultimate move.

Her longsword vibrated, and a thin beam of light shot out from it.

The entire sky trembled.

Finally, as the horn on the Lion King's head was severed, Yun Yun, heavily injured, escaped, signaling the end of the battle.

"Here she comes, here she comes!"

Chen Mo wasn't worried about the Lion King's rage. He focused on the sound of water splashing nearby, his face lighting up with excitement.

"From now on, she's mine!"

Chen Mo dashed out from the dense forest, scooped up the white-robed woman floating in the river, and swiftly carried her away from the area.

Not long after Chen Mo left, Xiao Yan arrived at the waterfall and inexplicably frowned, feeling as if he had lost something.

...

Chen Mo deliberately chose a cave far from the waterfall, one he had previously selected.

He carefully placed some collected magic beast dung at the entrance and covered it with branches to conceal it.

Only then did he look around the cave, where he had laid a makeshift bed of branches for the woman.

A single glance at the woman took his breath away. She possessed an indescribable beauty, like someone who had stepped out of a painting.

Stunningly beautiful.

She had a noble yet ethereal aura.

Chen Mo felt a surge of excitement.

Of course, he wouldn't dare do anything inappropriate. After all, that would surely result in being cut into pieces.

He could only proceed cautiously.

Starting with healing.

"Healing Talisman, activate... No, that heals too quickly. I need physical contact to leave a deep impression on her..."

"I'm not lusting after her body; it's just better for healing..."

"Yes, I'm a gentleman, not taking advantage of the situation... Oh, Yun Yun, you're awake..."

"What... what do you want?" A cold voice echoed in the cave.
