Chapter 59: Chapter Fifty-Nine: Arriving at the Imperial Capital

However, Lin Feng, the instigator, could not feel this Dou Emperor aura.

At this moment, he was already leisurely sleeping on a flying magic beast several hundred li away from Stone Desert City.

On the other side was Hai Bo Dong.

At this time, he seemed unaware of the destruction he had caused.

After a long period of unconsciousness, his eyes suddenly opened.

He hurriedly looked around and found that the black-robed Dou King had vanished; what met his eyes was a scene of chaos.

Suddenly, he felt his Dou Qi surging uncontrollably and wildly within his body.

Hai Bo Dong stared for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise and joy: 'Is this... I've broken the seal?!'

He quickly reacted, hurriedly sat cross-legged, and the old man's face tightened abruptly.

He sank his mind into his body, hurriedly brought the aimless Dou Qi under control, and guided it to flow normally along the specific meridians of the technique.

He directed all of those energy snakes, which seemed to be helping him break the seal, to the source of Medusa's seal.

When the two strands of purple energy lightly collided, they strangely began to merge and dissipate.

Then, the merged energy slowly flowed along the meridians and was finally expelled from his body.

The purple mist emanating from Hai Bo Dong's body gradually concealed his figure completely.

Soon after, the last trace of purple energy was expelled.

Hai Bo Dong's tightly shut eyes snapped open, and sharp light burst forth from his pupils like substance.

A fierce aura, like an awakened lion, surged forth from deep within his body, where it had been suppressed for nearly several decades.

Under this powerful aura, the surrounding purple mist instantly turned to nothing.

Moreover, the fleeing residents of Stone Desert City quickened their pace even more...

'Haha, this damned seal is finally gone! I've become a Dou Emperor again!'

The Dou Qi wings, sealed for decades, suddenly appeared, and Hai Bo Dong's body hovered in midair like lightning.

His face was filled with wild joy as he threw his head back and laughed loudly.

The violent sound waves, carried by the Dou Qi, shook the fleeing residents so much they cursed inwardly.

After laughing for a long while, Hai Bo Dong in midair suddenly recalled the black-robed Dou King.

He then rubbed his still-aching head and shouted angrily: 'You bastard! Don't let me find out who did this, or I'll kill you!'

Huh?

Relying on the keen eyesight of a Dou Emperor, Hai Bo Dong's gaze suddenly fell on something on the ground.

He landed on the ground and waved his somewhat withered hand lightly.

The fierce Dou Qi instantly blew the pile of miscellaneous items somewhere unknown.

'I stole your possessions, saw you were pitiful, used the materials from your space ring to forge a Breaking Calamity Pill for you—no thanks needed!'

With the miscellaneous items gone, Hai Bo Dong instantly saw the writing on the ground and read it aloud instinctively.

'You stole my things and still dare to speak to me in that condescending tone!'

With a roar of anger, the surrounding houses were all shattered into pieces by the powerful Dou Qi.

And at this moment, Hai Bo Dong's inner fury!

You should know, his space ring contains several of his signature fighting techniques and the cultivation method he practices.

Adding those prescriptions, medicinal ingredients, and various other miscellaneous items, it's worth tens of millions of gold coins.

Having been robbed of so much, Hai Bo Dong was already extremely annoyed, and this black-robed person dared to provoke him.

'Fine, you're making me angry—wait until I find you. Considering you helped me forge the Breaking Calamity Pill, I won't kill you. However, I heard Gu He has advanced to sixth rank, so I'll leak the news that you possess a Strange Fire to him; let's see how you evade assassination by a sixth-rank alchemist!'

Hai Bo Dong thought resentfully.

That mysterious person who helped him forge the Breaking Calamity Pill must possess a Strange Fire, making him easier to find.

Once he confirms that mysterious person's identity, he will immediately leak the information to Gu He, believing Gu He cannot resist the allure of a Strange Fire.

As Hai Bo Dong pondered revenge, a white-haired old man in coarse linen robes appeared nearby, his earth-yellow Dou Qi wings fluttering behind him.

'Hey, it's you, Ice Old Man! After not seeing each other for decades, you show up and wreck my Stone Desert City like this—kind of unfair, huh?'

The old man let out a sound of surprise and doubt, his tone tinged with unfriendliness.

'Heh, who do you think I am? I'm the old monster of the imperial family. I'm actually embarrassed this time—I messed up my cultivation and accidentally turned your empire's Stone Desert City into a mess. How about this: I'll have the Mitier family compensate all the city's residents for their losses, and also give your imperial family a scroll of Mysterious Tier intermediate combat technique?'

Hai Bo Dong looked up, his expression slightly changing as he sensed the linen-robed old man's aura surpassing his own peak; he did not dare to be negligent and gave a light laugh.

While speaking, Hai Bo Dong's face turned somewhat bluish-black, and a hint of helplessness flickered in his eyes.

This time, he's really taken a loss—without five or six million gold coins, there's no way to settle it!

However, thinking of his current two-star Dou Emperor strength, his expression eased a little.

Although the seal lasted too long, he cannot return to his former five-star Dou Emperor peak.

But merely returning to the Dou Emperor realm is already a great joy.

As long as he returns to the Mitier family, the family's strength will surely increase greatly.

Given some time, he can also earn back the lost money.

However, those famous signature techniques that were stolen...

'Heh, since the Ice Emperor said so, I naturally have to give him face.'

The linen-robed old man stroked his white-speckled beard, and his aged voice rang out.

Immediately, the old man chuckled: 'We haven't seen each other in decades—why pick a day? Today, we two old buddies will have a match.'

Having said that, his figure suddenly vanished from the spot, turning into an earth-yellow light that shot toward Hai Bo Dong.

'Hmph, you old immortal, if you want to intimidate me, just say so—why all the secrecy?'

Hai Bo Dong let out a cold snort, the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped, and the pure white battle qi quickly clashed with it.

"Hehe, how could it be? I, an old man, just want to have a match with an old partner."

Several days later.

"This level of prosperity, befitting the imperial capital of the Jia Ma Empire."

On the back of the flying magic beast, Lin Feng opened the window, lowered his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over this magnificent imperial capital, unable to help but exclaim in admiration.

With such a massive scale, among the cities Lin Feng has seen, in terms of grandeur and area, this Jia Ma Holy City undoubtedly ranks first.

As the flying beast slowly descended, Lin Feng stepped out of the flying transport service and arrived at the streets of the imperial capital.

Looking at the bustling crowd, he momentarily didn't know what to do.

"First find a place to stay, then go check out the headquarters of the Alchemist Guild."

Thinking this, Lin Feng walked forward for a while, saw an inn, and went inside...
