[Monochrome Inner Star Sutra (MISS)]

Han Yuan surveyed his status panel and noticed something was changing beside his techniques.
This body's bloodline of the Mystic Turtle has undergone mutation after he broke through to a new level of Monochrome Inner Star Sutra.
Of course, Han Yuan also doesn't close the possibility of it happening due to the Twelve Chains of Deification or the blessing of Purple Silver Grass, as there are too many factors in its change.
However, after using the Eyes of Truth on this mutated bloodline, all he received were question marks.
"Guess I could only know after I awakened it." Han Yuan sighed. The Eyes of Truth is not absolute, while it can analyze many things to their primary structure, this talent can't see something that is truly unknown without a principle and origin.
Han Yuan glanced at Xiao Yixian and saw her mouth open wide in shock because of his regeneration. "I'm fine."
"B-But you have broken bones and everything." Xiao Yixian stuttered.
"Just a scratch." Han Yuan waved his hand casually. Who wouldn't break a bone or two?
Douluo-Han Yuan's training is significantly more intense. Then, again, this body was young and didn't grow as fast as kids in the Douluo Plane.
In the Douluo Planet, a six-year-old can easily appear to be a teen, and a ten-year-old looks like a young adult.
Here, one's body progresses normally, unless a specific technique or heavenly resources are 'intently' used.
Even though Han Yuan had already comforted Xiao Yixian, the little girl stubbornly refused to get out today to do treasure hunting and insisted that he get a rest.
She even kept her eyes on Han Yuan in case he was doing something ridiculous again.
Han Yuan was speechless and could only laugh in response.
Well, at least he could explore the Monochrome Inner Star Sutra in the meantime.
...
Jia Ma Empire - Magical Beast Mountain Range.
The next day, Xiao Yixian relaxed her anxiety. After making sure that Han Yuan was alright, she finally agreed to do some treasure hunting, and they are currently in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
BOOM!
A loud explosion echoed in the lush forest as a giant ape over five meters tall, throwing a boulder at the escaping Xiao Yixian.
"Brother, help! This monkey is angry!" Xiao Yixian pleaded for help.
Han Yuan's mouth twitched in disbelief. 'I mean, who wouldn't get angry if someone trespassed on their house and stole something brazenly?'
Five minutes earlier, Xiao Yixian stumbled upon Giant Ape's nest, a Rank 4 Magical Beast known for its arduous strength and well-rounded defense, and found Monkey's Wine, a rare treasure that can promote one's Dou Qi growth.
Xiao Yixian, being a curious and greedy little girl, emptied the Giant Ape's monkey wine and angered it.
Normally, Xiao Yixian would do fine against a Rank 4 Magical Beast, which was equal to a Dou Grandmaster because of her poison-based technique, but at a frontal clash, she is weak and unskilled.
After all, she's training in assassin techniques with a hidden weapon.
Also, Xiao Yixian hasn't formally stated her path as a Dou Fighter. While Han Yuan was training her, all she did in the last year was cultivate her Dou Technique. Her combat skills and awareness are no different from those of an ordinary girl.
Roar!
The Giant Ape already chased behind Xiao Yixian and kicked its leg with fearsome force. The wind was howling, and Xiao Yixian couldn't help but close her eyes.
BAM!
Xiao Yixian opened her eyes slowly and saw Han Yuan holding the Giant Ape's leg with his small hand. It was a comical sight for both her and the Magical Beast.
"Sorry, big guy. I can't let you hurt my sister," Han Yuan smiled at the Giant Ape calmly. "What about I compensate you instead?"
The Giant Ape gulped nervously. Although the Rank 4 Magical Beasts have yet to develop human-like intelligence and are capable of human speech, they have developed enough intelligence to understand them, very much like 10,000-year-old spirit beasts.
At this very moment, all the Giant Ape could see wasn't a human kid, but a fearsome beast surrounded by an elemental storm.
Han Yuan's small figure is silverish gray in nature, as if it could stretch and devour the Giant Ape whole.
If the Giant Ape could speak, the word "scary" would be uttered in horror right now.
"Hmm, what's with that reaction?" Han Yuan tilted his head. He mulled over it briefly before clapping his hand. "Ah, I see."
Due to the unique formation of the inner star from the Monochrome Inner Star Sutra, it is akin to forming the Magic Core in essence rather than the Dou Qi Crystal because of how this technique functions, which made him develop some of his fearsome aura.
It also relates to his physique, which has broken its limitations once.
Simply put, Han Yuan is currently akin to a Human-shaped Magical Beast or a Magical Beast who has transformed into a human, and it only ever happens to high-ranked pure-blooded Magical Beasts.
Bloodline suppression is no joke among Magical Beasts. The difference might be only one rank, but that one rank is like an unsurpassable chasm.
And that's how Giant Ape felt right now.
Han Yuan understood this and suppressed his aura, making him appear normal and harmless in the Giant Ape's eyes. Even then, the Rank 4 Magical Beast didn't dare to move.
"..." Xiao Yixian couldn't believe her eyes.
Han Yuan laughed a little, "Yixian, give me some of the Monkey's Wine. I will give this big guy some compensation."
"Um, okay." Xiao Yixian fiddled with her storage ring and pulled a massive jar made of jade.
Han Yuan used his spiritual power to pour out the Monkey's Wine. Then, he used Sky Poison Pearl to refine it with some extra ingredients into a pill that can help the Giant Ape advance to Rank 5.
"Here, for you. As for the rest of your wine, think of it as payment." Han Yuan threw the pill to Giant Ape.
The Giant Ape dumbly stared at the pill on its giant palm and saw Han Yuan dragging Xiao Yixian to the sky as he treaded away casually.
'First, you stole my wine, intimidated me, and then gave me a gift?'
'What's with this human? No, is he even human???'
Meanwhile, Han Yuan carried Xiao Yixian like a princess and said, "Next time, you must be careful with your step, Yixian. Always aware of your surroundings."
"Mm, I know." Xiao Yixian replied with a faint smile, burying her face in Han Yuan's. Of course, she didn't take his words seriously because she would be fine as long as her brother was with her.
Han Yuan shook his head helplessly and gazed ahead, "Next stop..."
"Qingshan Town."
