Chapter 1200

Thinking of this, Tian Yan tapped the void with her jade foot, and her figure shot wildly toward the south.

Such was its speed that it directly shattered all the space along the way!

"Ugh, I never thought that the previously so gentle Tian Yan would be so terrifying when angry. Moreover, I didn't expect that Tian Yan not only has superb feel and taste there, but it's actually her first time. Nowadays, a woman of her age being a virgin is rare."

After the former left, Lin Feng finally dared to pull up his pants and slip out, his gaze following the direction Tian Yan had gone, and an expression of reminiscence unconsciously appeared on his face.

During these nearly three months, he had a blast—not only did he successfully get his hands on that mouth-watering granary, but his own strength also increased somewhat during their coupling, as he absorbed a lot of energy emanating from Tian Yan's body.

Although he hasn't yet entered the Five-star Late-stage Dou Saint stage, he is, in fact, only a hair's breadth away!

But the price paid is that Tian Yan, who originally had a chance to reach the Four-star Late-stage Dou Saint, even the peak, now only possesses the Four-star Early-stage Dou Saint.

You should know that Lin Feng this time actually gave Tian Yan more than one-third of the essence blood of an Eight-star Peak Dou Saint from the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan, as well as all the essence blood of the Northern Dragon King who had half a foot into the Four-star Dou Saint stage, and even his physique is that of a Four-star Peak Dou Saint.

As for the medicinal pill used for the revival, it is also of the Nine‑Grade Treasure Pill level.

If he hadn't absorbed a lot of energy, the other party would at least be a Four-star Late-stage Dou Saint; otherwise, it would be somewhat unfair to those materials.

After all, a single Treasure Pill can directly elevate a One-star Dou Saint to Three-star.

And although a Nine‑Grade Treasure Pill is only a tenth of a Nine‑Grade Mystic Pill, it remains extremely important among those ancient great clans.

If it weren't for someone with great merit, only those like Gu Qingyang and Gu Xun'er could be guaranteed to obtain one; as for individuals of the Gu Yao level and the like, it still depends on the situation!

While his thoughts were turning, Lin Feng hurriedly put on his clothes and then glanced around.

"Huh, I could sense Xiao Ling's aura outside all along, so why, after coming out, do I see no trace of her?"

Seeing this overly quiet valley, Lin Feng scratched his head, looking puzzled, and said: "Could it be that this little fellow got angry because I haven't come out for so long and ran away, unwilling to see me?"

"Ahhh!"

Just as he was puzzling over this, a roar suddenly came from the distant sky that Lin Feng found very familiar.

Immediately after, a bronze‑yellow light flashed from afar, halted beside Lin Feng, and bared its fangs and claws, shouting: "Damn it!"

"Just now, which shameless bastard dared to sneak‑attack this young lady? She knows that just now that fragment of the spatial seal fiercely slapped my face—what kind of psychological trauma has it inflicted on me, who has only been alive a few years?!"

While speaking, Xiao Ling also rubbed her sore little face, looking furious.

"All right, Xiao Ling, Tian Yan didn't do it on purpose; she simply didn't know you were out here."

Seeing Xiao Ling's appearance as if she wanted to fight the culprit to the death, Lin Feng immediately stroked her slightly red, tender smooth cheek and comforted her.

"Tian Yan?"

Hearing that, Xiao Ling blinked, then quickly searched her little mind.

But soon, from among the myriad thoughts of wanting to eat various delicious foods in her mind, she pulled out the information about Tian Yan, then immediately waved a few fists at the air in front of her and angrily shouted: "Damn that big‑she‑bear woman; I even used flames to help her fuse her soul and body earlier, yet I never expected that dead woman, upon emerging, would use the seal fragments to slap me dozens of miles away!"

As she went on, Xiao Ling grew angrier and angrier, and on the spot she jumped up in fury.

At the same time, numerous bronze‑colored flames of tremendous power kept surging toward the surrounding peaks.

Upon contact, they instantly burned those peaks to powder.

"All right, you little brat, this is someone else's territory—behave yourself."

Seeing the little girl's furious look, Lin Feng helplessly grabbed her by the scruff of the neck, lifted her up, and then his figure suddenly turned into a stream of light, shooting swiftly toward the Beast Realm.

After all, he's been out this long; it's about time he went back.

Moreover, according to the timeline, only a few months remain until the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire descends, so he must act now.

That Demonic Fire space is extremely dangerous; without preparation, it simply won't do.

Meanwhile, as Lin Feng hurried back with Xiao Ling to the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan, on a plain in the eastern region of Zhongzhou, a young man sat cross‑legged in midair, his gaze fixed unmoving on a massive gray fire cauldron dozens of zhang away.

That fire cauldron is about two to three hundred zhang in size, yet the temperature radiating from its walls is extraordinarily terrifying, causing the surrounding space to be somewhat fractured.

But the most eye‑catching thing is the deep‑blue medicinal pill inside the cauldron.

Although the pill is not large, it is exceedingly strange, constantly emitting a chilling aura that makes one's heart tremble.

And this incessantly released cold air actually lowers the temperature at the center of this extremely scorching gray fire cauldron by quite a bit.

Moreover, even the flames near the pill have dimmed considerably.

However, at the very moment the deep‑blue pill appeared, the originally bright and sunny sky over the plain instantly turned overcast with dark clouds.

No, more accurately, it was blanketed in black clouds.

Because the clouds that suddenly arrived above were pitch‑black like ink.

"Great! After all those setbacks, the Extreme Cold‑Swallowing Flame Pill has finally been refined!" Seeing the sky above him change abruptly, the young man seated before the cauldron immediately cracked a smile, his tone brimming with boundless joy.

Master and disciple have expended an enormous amount of energy and time on this pill!

"Hehe, Xiao Yan, congratulations. You, too, can now be called a master of the Nine‑Grade Treasure Pill, surpassing your teacher."

Seeing the black clouds above, an illusory figure ten li away from the young man also couldn't help but stroke his own white beard, nodding with pride and delight.

Upon hearing those words, the identities of this old man and the young man who had been refining the pill earlier become unmistakably clear.

Besides the recently miserable Yao Chen and Xiao Yan that Lin Feng dealt with, who else could it be?

After several years, the master and disciple have finally managed to refine this Nine‑Grade Treasure Pill, the Extreme Cold‑Swallowing Flame Pill.

"Boom—rumble"

Just as he was rejoicing, the black clouds above suddenly churned, and then a thick arm‑sized bolt of pitch‑black lightning shot straight down from the clouds, aiming directly at the gray fire cauldron below!

"Hehe, good timing—I'll meet your Black Devil Lightning and see just how powerful it is."

Seeing the black lightning descending from the sky, Xiao Yan not only felt no fear; his words instead stirred his battle spirit to a boil.

Having been suppressed for so long, he can finally unleash his strength to his heart's content!

The next instant, a faint light flickered in Xiao Yan's hand, and a black giant ruler suddenly appeared in his grasp.

"Flame‑Splitting Wave‑Rending Ruler!"

Accompanied by his loud shout ringing out across the plain, he raised the giant ruler—whose surface had at some point been covered in gray flames—and brought it down hard upon the sky.

"Boom!"

The Black Devil Lightning and the flame‑wrought giant ruler collided; in an instant they were smashed to pieces by that tremendous force, then transformed into countless tiny black lightning snakes that rampaged wildly across the surrounding sky.

With this Extreme Cold Devouring Flame Pill, Yao Chen, what are Xiao Yan's chances of successfully subduing the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire this time?

Looking at the figure in the distance ravaging the Black Devil Thunder, Han Shanshan immediately turned to Yao Chen beside her and asked.

About thirty percent, after all, from my constant reading of ancient texts these days, I found that when the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire first appeared a thousand years ago, even two two-star and one three-star Dou Saint experts perished inside it, while Xiao Yan is now only a one-star Dou Saint; even with the aid of this Nine‑Treasure‑Grade Extreme Cold Devouring Flame Pill, the success rate absolutely cannot exceed thirty percent.

Speaking of this, Yao Chen also couldn't help but shake his head in resignation.

Although the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire is wonderful, its power is too heaven‑defying; even a three‑star Dou Saint has perished within it.

Its true strength is probably at least a four‑star Dou Saint.

Sigh, I hope he succeeds.

Upon hearing that, Han Shanshan also let out a soft sigh, her face full of helplessness.

Although her strength has now reached the Dou Zun level, facing the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, such a heaven‑earth divine object, she still has no way to deal with it.

Seeing her low spirits, Yao Chen immediately patted her shoulder and said: "Don't think too much about it; I'm not sure of this kid's temper, but if he doesn't go, he definitely can't do it. So we can only do our best and leave the rest to fate."

However, even I now cannot help him in any way.

While speaking, Yao Chen looked at his illusory body and also shook his head helplessly.

Me too.

Upon hearing that, Han Shanshan also nodded in agreement.

Immediately afterward, she looked toward the distant Xiao Yan and said: "Fortunately, relying on those previous soul bodies and soul origins, that kid also successfully advanced to the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection Soul. Although because he consecutively destroyed the Soul Hall's Heaven Hall Human Hall and several branch halls on other continents, he's been firmly blocked here by the Soul Hall's experts and cannot move, at least his strength has increased."

Hearing Han Shanshan's words, Yao Chen also lightly nodded, indicating agreement.

But shortly after, he sighed helplessly: "It's just a shame that, old as I am, I lack the strength to find him a Heaven‑Rank Sound Wave Fighting Technique; otherwise, combined with his soul power, even a three‑star Dou Saint might be caught off guard. Then he could seize this opportunity to quickly withdraw from the battlefield, increasing his chance of escape."

Hehe, chatting about this here is useless; there are only three months left until the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire appears, so we should hurry and make the necessary preparations.

Upon hearing that, Han Shanshan immediately shook her head, then turned toward the east and said: "How about the Ancient Clan's side? What happened with Xiao Yan and Gu Xun'er earlier? They haven't replied for so long—is it agreement or disagreement?"

Mm, I heard they were preparing to agree, but after learning that Xiao Yan insisted on participating in the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, they sent him a lot of the medicinal herbs he needed, yet after that there's been no news. Based on the current situation, I estimate the Ancient Clan is watching and waiting to see if Xiao Yan can emerge unscathed from the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire. After all, if Xiao Yan dies at its hands, then everything loses its meaning.

Regarding Han Shanshan's question, Yao Chen remained silent for a while, then did not conceal anything and directly stated his speculation.

Really? Then I hope that kid can return safely. After all, it's hard to see any hope, or perhaps there's a chance to kill that bastard Lin Feng; just don't let him die in there. Otherwise, it would truly be as your teacher said—everything would lose its meaning.

Gazing at the black clouds continually dispersing in the sky, and the sunlight that falls through the weak spots in those clouds, a silhouette stands on the horizon. (End of Chapter)
