Chapter 1152: Soul Hard to Advance

"I didn't expect that the magic beast overlord, the Great Void Ancient Dragon, would encounter such a thing. No wonder they have remained so low-profile over these thousands of years."

After hearing Lin Feng's account of the events, Zhao Ran immediately clicked her tongue, her face full of astonishment as she said.

Who could have imagined that the Great Void Ancient Dragon clan, over these thousands of years, experienced a split among the three kings, mutual attacks that consumed many strong members of the clan, and some strong members, dissatisfied with this, left, among many other things.

After roughly understanding the affairs of the Ancient Dragon clan, Zhao Ran also momentarily didn't know what to say.

However, thinking that Lin Feng has now feuded with the ancient, flame, and medicine three clans, a hint of worry appeared on her gentle, water-like face.

After pondering for a while, she immediately said, "Should I help with something?"

"Zhao Sister, please first take Zhao'er, Xiao Cai, and Zhan'er with me. I'm not at ease here, so trouble you to take these little ones to a hidden place to stay for a while. I may later go into seclusion and then handle some matters, which will take a considerable amount of time. After I settle those matters, you can bring them back."

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng then looked at Zhao Ran's watery eyes, his expression calm as he said: "As for those three great families, unless they truly go mad and recklessly attack, I might not actually fear them."

As he spoke on, a flash of ferocity also appeared in Lin Feng's eyes.

Earlier, when fighting the Four-star Peak Dou Saint of the Ancient Clan, the means he used were not his final trump card.

However, if that move lacks sufficient sacrifices, its cost is truly too great.

Unless faced with a life-or-death situation, he would not possibly unleash it.

"Okay, no problem, I will help you take good care of those three."

Upon hearing that, Zhao Ran immediately nodded, agreeing without hesitation.

As soon as her words fell, she immediately sat up voluntarily and said: "Since the matter is settled, before you leave, let us happily enjoy ourselves."

After speaking, her soft, boneless waist, under her control, began to move on its own, continually asking Lin Feng for benefits.

That appearance seemed to be that she would not rest until she got benefits.

However, deep in Zhao Ran's eyes, a hint of worry flickered.

After all, those three Dou Emperor families are not exactly kind-hearted.

And since she cannot defeat the opponent, all she can do is bear children for them.

If possible, then during this time, she would also secretly add another for him.

Then, if Lin Feng really encounters some mishap, she could also leave incense for him.

In the future, she might also be able to avenge her father.

And when Lin Feng saw the former suddenly request battle proactively, although he didn't quite understand, he still immediately accepted the fight, vowing to decide the outcome with one move!

"Zhao Ran Sister, I might be away for a while later, so those three little ones are entrusted to you."

Several days later, Lin Feng stood on a pavilion in Lin Realm, facing Zhao Ran leaning in his embrace, and said.

"Hmm."

Upon hearing that, Zhao Ran immediately pursed her tender lips, then nodded, speaking softly: "Rest assured, I will take good care of Zhao'er and the others. As for you, out there you must then 【untranslatable】."

"Don't worry, my life is tough."

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng gave a light chuckle.

Immediately after, he looked toward Han Su beside him and said: "Han Su, work hard; when I return, we'll see if I can help you break through to Dou Saint. Of course, that method carries some danger, so you can think it over during this time."

Thinking that she had also devoted herself wholeheartedly to Lin Realm during this time, Lin Feng immediately gave his promise.

After all, he had previously obtained the body of Wu Chunsheng's lover, which happened to have no use.

If used to make puppets, he would feel it a bit wasteful.

After all, although puppets are good, they lack intelligence, cannot function normally, and their usage is greatly limited.

"Thank you, Master!"

Upon hearing the promise that he could help her break through to Dou Saint, Han Su's beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, and she excitedly knelt to give thanks.

After all, that is a Dou Saint; even looking across the whole continent, it is a top-tier powerhouse—who wouldn't want to break through?

As for the risk, she simply ignored it.

After all, she had previously wasted too much cultivation time; at her current pace, normal cultivation would definitely leave her without any chance of reaching the Dou Saint realm even by death.

Now that she has an opportunity, she no longer cares about any risk.

As long as it's not a ninety-nine percent chance, she will surely just charge ahead headfirst!

"Hehe, no need for that; as long as you focus on doing things for me, that's enough."

Seeing Han Su kneel directly, Lin Feng immediately reached out, laughing as he virtually helped her up.

And as his words fell, Zhao Ran beside him also seemed to recall something, then slapped her own head, annoyed: "It's all your fault; earlier you just sighed and forgot about Tian Yan's matter. I had told her before that she wanted you to help her break through to Dou Saint, and I even prepared the medicinal pills for her."

"Afterward, you just need to take the remaining materials and help her break through to Dou Saint."

As she spoke on, a hint of a smile also appeared in Zhao Ran's eyes.

That pill surely would let her man and her best friend enjoy an unprecedented sensation.

After all, her best friend's that super-large firm thing—she had tested the feel, and it was fantastic!

As for Lin Feng, she too had tried it many times; regardless of size or length, or other aspects of the three clans, there's nothing to say.

"Fine, I'll go later."

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng immediately nodded and agreed.

After all, he still kept in mind the Tian clan's Pill Control Method, so he would naturally not refuse to trade with them.

And after finishing his words, Lin Feng then waved at the two women, saying: "Then I'll leave this place first; if anything comes up, contact me with a jade slip."

As his words fell, Lin Feng's figure instantly faded and vanished from the spot.

"Whoosh!"

After leaving Lin Realm, Lin Feng immediately plunged into the void, adeptly flying deep within.

And in this dark void that ordinary people despise, he, possessing the Ancient Dragon clan's spatial talent, felt as if he had returned home, eagerly darting about madly within.

Within less than a day, he had already flown out a distance of nearly several light-hours inside it.

Of course, this is based on him not advancing at full speed.

Otherwise, it might not be these distances.

Speaking of this place, it should be about the same.

Having arrived at the void depths hundreds of billions of li away from the Fighting Qi Continent's void, Lin Feng's gaze swept over the surroundings; the space storm that would instantly kill even a Half-Saint expert raged wildly around him, and he immediately nodded in satisfaction.

Immediately afterward, he waved his hand and took out two jade bottles and several corpses.

And these were, without a doubt, the corpses of the experts from the Ancient, Flame, and Medicine Clans that he had slain, as well as the souls of the two Medicine Clan Fighting Saints.

Of course, don't misunderstand; Lin Feng this time did not intend to refine these souls and corpses into human puppets.

At the same time, he also lacked enough ninth‑rank magic cores to refine puppets.

Using eighth‑rank magic cores would undoubtedly be a waste of these colored scales.

Moreover, if he truly intended to refine these corpses into puppets, he would have already asked Zi Yan whether she had any ninth‑rank magic cores.

Now that he has taken out these people's souls, there is no need to say more; the only path is to refine and absorb them.

But as for those corpses, he wanted to verify a certain conjecture again.

"Hmm, using all of them isn't necessary; taking out just two corpses is about right."

Gazing at the corpses before him, Lin Feng pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and stored all the corpses except the Medicine Clan's three‑star early‑stage expert and the Flame Clan's three‑star Fighting Saint Elder back into his storage ring.

Immediately afterward, he gently gestured, drawing the two jade bottles into his palm.

Immediately afterward, he gazed at the jade bottles in his hand and murmured, "One mid‑stage Heavenly Realm soul, one late‑stage Heavenly Realm soul—I hope they can give me some help."

As he spoke, Lin Feng flicked his finger, sending the bottle's stopper flying.

"Hehe."

As the stopper flew off, two foolish souls laughed as they floated out.

"Boom."

At the instant those two souls flew out, the strange fire within Lin Feng's body erupted, and a dark‑red strange fire shot out, engulfing the two souls and burning them.

"Ah."

Suddenly engulfed by the strange fire's sea of flames, under the scorching heat that made them extremely uncomfortable, the two Medicine Clan experts' souls instantly let out piercing screams.

However, Lin Feng was already accustomed to these screams, felt no pity, and simply continued to calmly refine the two souls within the strange fire.

Because he knew their pain came from the fact that he had won.

And if he had lost, their fate would have been his.

The wails within the dark‑red strange fire gradually weakened over time.

Soon afterward, they disappeared completely.

But seeing this, Lin Feng merely continued to calmly control the temperature of the strange fire, roasting what lay within.

Only after another interval did he wave his hand and calmly shout, "Retreat!"

"Boom~"

As his shout rang out, the strange fire that had wrapped the two Medicine Clan Fighting Saint souls quickly receded, revealing within it a light cluster that had at some point turned into a faint yellow glow.

"Hehe, the soul origin refined from these two souls is quite substantial."

Seeing this, Lin Feng gave a faint smile, then reached out and sucked the pale yellow light cluster into his palm.

Shortly afterward, he closed his eyes slightly, and an identical figure instantly appeared before him.

"Hehe, I've had a big meal."

As soon as that figure appeared, its eyes burned hot as it gazed at the pale yellow light cluster.

Immediately afterward, he flashed forward, opened his mouth wide, and swallowed the soul origin refined from the two Medicine Clan Fighting Saints in one gulp.

"Whoosh."

The next instant, the figure that had swallowed the origin swiftly turned into a speck of light and flew into Lin Feng's forehead.

And that thing was actually Lin Feng's own soul.

After entering the Heavenly Realm's Great Perfection, his soul could already come out and act freely.

Therefore, Lin Feng naturally no longer needed to swallow soul origins himself as before; he could simply release his soul to do the devouring.

"Too bad, these mid‑ and late‑stage Heavenly Realm souls are of little use to me now."

Feeling his soul grow somewhat stronger, Lin Feng let out a sigh.
