Chapter 1127: Xiao Yan Faces Another Setback

Crack!

Having obtained the Na Ring, Lin Feng immediately gathered his soul power and then slammed it hard onto the Na Ring in his hand.

Boom!

With the massive invisible force striking hard onto the Na Stone of this Na Ring, in an instant the quiet depths of the void violently rang with a fierce collision sound.

Crack.

The invisible force collided with the Na Stone; after the clash, a faint cracking sound immediately rose from the Na Ring.

Immediately, the invisible barrier above the Na Stone silently shattered, turning into fine fragments that fell and were then swept away by the fierce storm in the void, destination unknown.

After removing the last obstacle to his exploration of the Na Ring, Lin Feng's soul perception swiftly entered the Na Ring.

As his soul perception entered the Na Ring, in an instant a vast white space appeared before his eyes.

Of course, though this space is large, it is not empty.

Rows of wooden racks are neatly arranged, filling the entire space.

And Lin Feng's soul perception, upon entering here, ignored the surrounding items, unleashing powerful perception that completely covered the space.

Got it!

Under the strong perception, Lin Feng quickly and joyfully darted toward a direction.

The next moment, his perception appeared before a massive white giant cauldron.

Immediately, with a thought, that cauldron vanished into the Na Ring.

At the same time, within the void space, a white giant cauldron towering a hundred zhang manifested without warning.

With the cauldron's appearance, in an instant a peaceful, tranquil aura gradually spread, soothing many restless emotions.

"Hehe, the Holy Radiance Cauldron, seventh on the Celestial Cauldron Ranking, finally in my hands."

Seeing the white giant cauldron before him, Lin Feng's face flashed with excitement.

After all, this Holy Radiance Cauldron is also one of the keys to opening the Black-and-White Iron Box.

And that Black-and-White Iron Box, a relic that emerged from the Dou Emperor Relic, its contents are certainly extraordinary.

If he can open it, the bounty could be unimaginable.

Nevertheless, having obtained the Holy Radiance Cauldron, Lin Feng let out a huge sigh of relief.

Immediately, he lightly waved his hand, storing it into his Na Ring.

Having secured the Holy Radiance Cauldron, Lin Feng finally could calm down and let his soul perception continue to delve into Wu Chunsheng's Na Ring, beginning to explore other things.

Re-entering the Na Ring space, Lin Feng directly used his powerful soul perception to sweep over the many items inside.

Finally, he lingered in an area of extremely dense energy.

Whoosh~

The next moment, Lin Feng's perception suddenly shifted, and in an instant he arrived before a wooden rack full of jade bottles.

His attention focused entirely on the two jade bottles placed alone on the top shelf.

Inside those jade bottles, even through a layer of seal, he could sense a very strong energy fluctuation.

That fluctuation, though not as domineering as Demon Saint Essence Blood, was clearly richer in energy than anything else, making the contents of those two jade bottles superior.

"Could this be the Ninth Grade Treasure Pill?!"

After a brief hesitation, Lin Feng immediately exclaimed in disbelief.

The Ninth Grade Pill, unlike the Eighth Grade Pill distinguished by pill thunder colors, is divided into three sub‑grades: Ninth Grade Treasure Pill, Ninth Grade Mysterious Pill, and Ninth Grade Golden Pill.

However, because the Ninth Grade Pill is extremely hard to refine and its ingredients are virtually monopolized by the great ancient races, it is exceedingly scarce.

On the continent today, it is truly hard to obtain.

As for Lin Feng's current Ninth Grade Treasure Pill, this grade of pill, on a continent where Golden Pills are nearly extinct and Mysterious Pills are not produced, is almost the highest‑level pill that most Dou Saints can encounter.

Even the ancient Dou Saint ancestors of the Five Clans and Seven Sects would likely be unable to resist seizing it upon seeing it.

After all, this Ninth Grade Treasure Pill offers great benefits even to a three‑star Dou Saint!

Of course, a four‑star Dou Saint would also gain some benefits from taking it.

"This time it's released. I still don't know how Wu Chunsheng managed to get so many ingredients to refine these two Ninth Grade Treasure Pills!"

His gaze fixed on the two jade bottles on the rack, Lin Feng's throat couldn't help but twitch a few times.

This thing, to him, is more tempting than Demon Saint Essence Blood!

After all, unless he alone consumes Demon Saint Essence Blood, a fifth of it has very little effect on him.

Even Xiao Yan in the original work, being only a one‑star Dou Saint, after taking it only advanced to the later stage of one‑star, never fully achieving a complete one‑star upgrade.

Now he is a three‑star Dou Saint, and compared to a one‑star Dou Saint, the difficulty of promotion has increased more than tenfold.

Trying to promote using only a fifth of Demon Saint Essence Blood is simply a joke!

And that is one of the reasons he refuses to take Demon Saint Essence Blood.

"Forget how Wu Chunsheng obtained the ingredients; as long as I can get the pills, there's no need to overthink it."

Mid‑speech, Lin Feng's thought shifted, and he took out the two jade bottles containing the Ninth Grade Treasure Pills.

Immediately, he stored them into his Na Ring.

Of course, he does not intend to hoard the two Ninth Grade Treasure Pills for himself.

After all, this bounty was possible thanks to Zhao Ran's guidance.

At the same time, Zhao Ran is his woman now; although she had a previous marriage, since he chose to accept her, he cannot favor one over another by secretly hiding this good thing and giving it to his other women.

Having secured those two treasure pills, Lin Feng then continued to loot inside Wu Chunsheng's Na Ring.

Whether to say it or not, Wu Chunsheng's character may be lacking, but his collection truly lives up to his Dou Saint status.

Inside, the herbs, cultivation techniques, combat skills, weapons, pills and other items dazzled Lin Feng.

Even among the prescriptions, there were several formulas for the Ninth Grade Treasure Pill.

However, since Lin Feng already had several prescriptions of that grade in his hand.

Therefore, he didn't show too much excitement.

However, some top-grade medicinal ingredients for refining ninth-tier pills in the medicine area of his storage ring made Lin Feng extremely delighted.

After all, such grade of medicinal ingredients are not easy to find.

Of course, he also found the Zhao family inheritance mentioned by Zhao Ran in the storage ring.

Upon seeing those three sets of extraordinary techniques, after a moment's thought, Lin Feng finally recorded them all, then stored the copies in his storage ring.

As for the originals, he put them back into Wu Chusheng's storage ring.

And after exploring Wu Chusheng's storage ring, Lin Feng, following the principle of having already looked, also examined the middle-aged woman's storage ring.

However, because that middle-aged woman was a wind-attribute cultivator.

Thus, he also did not find anything useful for himself inside.

If one had to say, he also obtained a not-bad wind-attribute low-tier Heavenly battle technique.

And he planned to give it to Yun'er when he saw her later.

After all, among his women, only Yun'er is a wind-attribute cultivator.

And while Lin Feng was happily organizing Wu Chusheng and his lover's storage rings, on the other side Xiao Yan had just gone through an extremely brutal battle.

Finally, thanks to the rescue of the ancient clan, they barely managed to save their lives.

As for why this happened, it starts from earlier when Yao Chen and Xiao Yan, in order to obtain medicinal ingredients, agreed to a transaction with that secluded family.

Who would have thought that the so-called secluded family's willingness to exchange medicinal ingredients with Yao Chen was completely fictitious.

When Lei Zi, Xiao Yan, and Yao Chen went there that day, they discovered it was actually a trap meticulously designed by the Soul Hall.

As soon as they entered, the previously unseen Vice Hall Master of the Soul Hall, accompanied by the Grand Heavenly Lord, immediately appeared before Xiao Yan.

And appearing together with them, the surrounding space was completely sealed!

Immediately thereafter, they launched an attack directly in the shocked and terrified eyes of Xiao Yan and his companions.

Only then did Xiao Yan realize that this Vice Hall Master of the Soul Hall was actually a super expert whose battle energy strength reached three-star Dou Saint and whose soul power had entered the late stage of the Heavenly Realm.

Moreover, even the Soul Hall's Grand Heavenly Lord was a powerful expert whose strength reached two-star Dou Saint.

And under the attacks of the two Dou Saints, Xiao Yan and his group were almost instantly defeated.

Finally, Xiao Yan steeled himself, activated his clan pattern to increase his power somewhat, then communicated with his Fire Spirit Little Three, using strange fire to create a super huge fire lotus.

And under the explosion of this terrifyingly powerful fire lotus, the spatial seal constructed by the Soul Hall's Vice Hall Master was also blasted open a small gap.

Afterward, Xiao Yan seized this fleeting opportunity, quickly crushed the space jade slip given by his girlfriend, and summoned Gu Xun'er for help.

Of course, thanks to Gu Xun'er's timely rescue, Xiao Yan's life was temporarily preserved this time.

But because he had been beaten down by the three-star Dou Saint Vice Hall Master of the Soul Hall earlier, Xiao Yan was almost powerless to resist, suffering heavy injuries and his life hanging by a thread.

Finally, he was carried back by Gu Xun'er, who was crying and shouting.

Moreover, since Xiao Yan originally could not condense such a powerful fire lotus, his forced execution caused severe overdraw of his soul power, even damaging his soul origin.

Therefore, in the short term, it is estimated to be difficult to recover.

As for Yao Chen, he was not as fortunate as his own disciple.

Because Xiao Yan was being completely overwhelmed by the Vice Hall Master, he basically had no free hand to help them.

Thus, he and Lei Zi had to face the Soul Hall's Grand Heavenly Lord, a two-star Dou Saint, alone, and within a few seconds both were beaten to the point of their bodies disintegrating.

Even their souls were left behind because the Grand Heavenly Lord wanted to collect them.
