Chapter 455

Just as the three people ahead had just left, a thin, dark-green figure suddenly appeared in this sky.

He looked ahead and saw that the nearby smaller peaks had completely vanished from this world.

And beneath his feet, the towering main peak was covered with cracks about a zhang wide.

As for the originally lush green forest, it had now completely turned into a bald, yellow-earth slope.

Hiss~

Gazing at the devastated scene below, the dark-green figure sucked in a breath of cold air.

Immediately, he muttered: "This destructive force, even a six-star Dou Zun would have to temporarily avoid its edge."

"Wrong, I recall that the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast lives here, doesn't it? This scene now—could it not be the result of her battle with someone else?"

After the shock, that figure suddenly recalled the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast that made his eyes gleam; his pupils narrowed slightly as he speculated.

"But looking at this, that Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast was probably killed by that mysterious expert. It's a pity—if I were to absorb all the poison from her venom sac, I might be able to break through the barrier in one go and reach five-star Dou Zun."

That person gazed at the valley below, utterly devastated, its buildings all gone, and spoke with regret.

However, thinking of his own strength, he couldn't even match the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast.

Compared to the mysterious expert who slew the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, the gap must be even greater.

He then helplessly shook his head and vanished from this sky.

Not long after that figure left, several more figures arrived one after another.

Upon seeing the scene before them, they were all filled with shock.

Just as those experts were astonished by the destruction caused when the Heavenly Flame Venerable used four different flames and one rebirth flame to perform the Five Wheels Separating Flame Technique...

The few culprits had already arrived at a certain place in the Great Desert of the West.

Emerging from the Space Wormhole, the Heavenly Flame Venerable's gaze immediately swept around.

After confirming there was no danger, he immediately looked at Lin Feng and said: "Lin kid, where are we going now?"

"We'll first find a safe place so I can use the poison-pill method to resolve Xiao Yixian's Aberrant Poison Body. However, it would be best to find a place of utmost yang and fierceness to perform the secret art; that would increase the chance of successfully condensing the poison pill."

Seeing that the materials needed for the poison-pill method were already gathered, Lin Feng immediately spoke.

Although he knew the Ye family had a Yang Fire Ancient Altar, the Central Plains' Central Region was too far from here.

Even if he ran there now, without ten days or more, he couldn't reach it.

Therefore, it's more practical to find a suitable place within this Great Desert of the West.

After all, the fire-attributed Dou Qi in this desert is extremely abundant; finding a place of utmost yang and fierceness isn't too difficult.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yixian beside him, hearing this, her purplish-brown beautiful eyes also brightened.

The Aberrant Poison Body is like a time‑bomb that could explode at any moment, though for now it's suppressed by the Netherworld Poison Flame.

But until it's completely resolved, she still bears great psychological pressure.

If she could condense all her bodily poison into a poison pill, she could also breathe a sigh of relief.

"Utmost yang and fierceness—then let's find a volcanic area to condense that poison pill for Xiao Yixian. Anyway, in this hot, dry desert, volcanoes aren't hard to find."

The Heavenly Flame Venerable pondered briefly, then spoke.

"Good."

Lin Feng and Xiao Yixian nodded in unison and replied.

Seeing that the two had no objections, the Heavenly Flame Venerable released his powerful soul power from his brow, beginning to probe the surroundings.

"Breaking from the Mortal Soul to the Spiritual Soul is indeed a major hurdle; the gap between them is simply terrifying."

Feeling the formidable soul power emanating from the Heavenly Flame Venerable's brow, Lin Feng murmured enviously.

Before the Spiritual Soul, even his peak Mortal Soul power was utterly unable to resist.

"You possess the soul of Lue Feng Zunzhe; wanting to advance to the Spiritual Soul shouldn't be too hard. However, you've only just entered the peak of the Mortal Realm not long ago, so I suggest you first settle for a year or two before absorbing Lue Feng Zunzhe's soul; otherwise, your foundation may be insufficient, and you could truly fail, making it difficult to obtain such a predecessor's soul later."

Hearing that envious tone, the Heavenly Flame Venerable worried the former might act too hastily and thus reminded him.

"Yao Lao, rest assured, I'm not someone who doesn't know his limits."

Hearing the former's warning, Lin Feng chuckled lightly.

He also knew that breaking from the Mortal Soul to the Spiritual Soul was extremely difficult.

Therefore, he dared not be careless.

"Then it's settled; let's go. There's no volcano nearby, but the fire-attributed Dou Qi over there is a bit richer, so the chance of finding a volcano is also higher."

Not long after the former's words fell, the Heavenly Flame Venerable shouted again at Lin Feng and Xiao Yixian.

Having said that, he himself shot straight off in a direction.

Lin Feng and his wife, seeing this, quickly followed after him.

"Hehe, this place is suitable, right?"

Arriving at a bald, dark‑red peak spewing rolling black smoke, the Heavenly Flame Venerable looked at Lin Feng and smiled.

"This place is not bad; it should meet the requirement of utmost yang and fierceness stated in the poison‑pill method."

Lin Feng stood in mid‑air atop the volcano's peak, gazing down at the reddish magma that scorched and slightly twisted the air, and exclaimed excitedly.

The high temperature within this volcano's depths is such that even some intermediate Dou Zong dare not take it lightly.

Moreover, the blazing sun directly pierces the volcano's mouth, shining upon that magma.

The combined heat of the two causes the magma's surface to occasionally spit out a strand of crimson flame.

Such a place fully satisfies the condition of utmost yang and fierceness.

"Since the place is fine, I'll first go around to conceal this area; you two focus on resolving the Aberrant Poison Body."

Seeing no problem, the Heavenly Flame Venerable finished speaking and then vanished from the spot.

As for Lin Feng, he took the delighted Xiao Yixian's hand and flew toward the volcano below.

After passing through the volcano's mouth, the two arrived above this crimson world.

Gazing at the scorching heat constantly rising from below, Lin Feng unconsciously took a deep breath.

The fire-attribute Battle Qi here is extremely pure and rich.

If a cultivator below the Battle Sect trains here, it can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

「Unfortunately, this place's effect is no longer great for a Battle Sect. 」

Lin Feng slightly shook his head with a hint of disappointment, and then his gaze swept over the surroundings.

This place is extremely silent; aside from occasional wisps of flame and bubbles rising from the magma below, there is hardly any other sound.

After scanning the area, Lin Feng's gaze immediately stopped on a nearby rock wall.

Then, with a wave of his palm, a fierce Battle Qi whip shot out instantly.
