Chapter 675

However, what surprised Lin Feng was that behind this spatial passage was not the Pill Realm, but a rather spacious open area.

As his gaze swept over, he discovered that the space surrounding this open area was extremely distorted.

Obviously, a strong expert from the Pill Tower had employed means to forcibly construct this spatial resting point.

At this moment, several seated figures were already present on this open ground, presumably the contestants who had first passed the illusion trial.

Moreover, each of them emanated a faint pressure.

Obviously, the strength of these few individuals is not weak.

However, Lin Feng discovered that the ages of these few people were all over two hundred years.

And upon seeing this, he instantly understood why the other party had been so quick.

Immediately afterward, his gaze left those few people and continued looking forward.

Not far ahead of those few people, there was a huge silver vortex.

And beneath the vortex, an old man dressed in ordinary clothes guarded that spot.

Beneath the old man, a giant turtle, entirely dark as black iron, lay prone on the ground.

As for that old man, he sat cross-legged on the back of that giant turtle.

Lin Feng's gaze swiftly swept over the emblem on the old man's chest.

From the insignia on it, this person is also one of the eight great Elders of the outer Pill Tower.

After a brief moment of thought, Lin Feng realized that he was currently in a competition.

Rashly stepping forward to greet would easily be misunderstood by the other contestants.

Thus, he gave up on approaching to talk.

And Lin Feng's sudden appearance naturally also drew the attention of the few people on the open ground.

Immediately afterward, several gazes were projected onto his body.

Upon discovering that the newcomer was a young person not over thirty years old, everyone's heart was startled.

The reason they were able to come out this quickly is that, when they were young, they had participated in several pill gatherings and thus knew the characteristics of this illusion trial.

But this young person before them, not even thirty years old, could hardly have participated in the pill gathering thirty years ago.

However, the speed at which he passed the illusion was only one step slower than theirs!

Especially upon seeing the eighth-rank alchemist medal hanging before Lin Feng's chest, the few individuals instantly regarded him with extremely wary eyes.

This time, they have come thick-skinned to participate in this pill gathering to compete with the youngster, isn't it just for the Ninth Rank on the Strange Fire Ranking, the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire?

And the terrifying strength displayed by this brat has already made them feel a tremendous threat!

As for Lin Feng, after seeing that the few people on the field were not his acquaintances, he casually found an open spot and sat cross-legged.

After all, judging from the fact that these people have made no moves, the second stage has not yet been opened.

Therefore, he only needs to wait patiently again.

Whoosh!

After a period of time, the outlet of that gray space suddenly began to ripple again.

Immediately afterward, a white-clad graceful figure flew out from within.

And the few people present, upon sensing someone emerging, also turned their heads to look.

As for the white-clad woman who had safely landed after passing the illusion trial.

Upon seeing Lin Feng, her pure yet slightly mature maiden-like face instantly showed a hint of delight.

Sit for a while; the second stage hasn't opened yet.

Seeing Xiao Yixian emerge, Lin Feng spoke with a smile.

Mm.

Xiao Yixian lightly nodded, then came to Lin Feng's side and sat close beside him.

And the other few people, upon seeing that the two had an extraordinary relationship, also ceased paying attention and continued to wait with closed eyes.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

After Xiao Yixian appeared, it was as if a certain switch had been turned on.

In a short while, several figures successively flew out from within.

Moreover, Lin Feng recognized all of the people who appeared.

These individuals were Xiao Yan, Dan Chen, and Cao Ying.

When Xiao Yan appeared, Lin Feng's eyebrows also twitched slightly.

What made him curious was not Xiao Yan's soul entering the spirit realm.

But rather that this guy's strength truly reached the Seven-Star Peak realm!

Furthermore, under the scan of powerful soul power, Lin Feng discovered that the strange fire aura emanating from Xiao Yan's body had changed from before.

It had become even more scorching and violent than when he had sneak-attacked him previously.

As for Xiao Yan, upon seeing Lin Feng, a flash of intense killing intent involuntarily appeared in his eyes.

If it weren't for this guy, he would still be peacefully staying in the Pill Tower, letting the three major powers help search for his teacher's whereabouts, and would not have been forced to merge with the Soul Hall's fire.

A couple of months ago, the Soul Hall for some unknown reason suddenly went mad and attacked him.

Although in this conflict lasting over seventy days, he obtained a large number of souls from the Soul Hall's guardians and other cultivators.

And with the aid of these souls, he successfully broke through in one go to the Spirit Realm soul.

However, during this period of conflict, he also nearly exhausted the network of contacts left by his teacher before his death.

And the strong experts he had painstakingly invited also fell, seven or eight out of ten.

Although he possessed that resurrection method in his hand, the Soul Hall is exceptionally skilled at soul attacks.

In battle, many strong experts, as soon as they fall, have their souls immediately seized.

Even if he wanted to revive them, he still couldn't find their souls!

Now he doesn't even know, after finding his teacher, where to go to find so many strong people to rescue them.

And if he hadn't been expelled from the Dan Tower, when the Soul Hall came looking for him, he could still hide in the Xiao Dan Tower and wouldn't have to worry about retaliation.

In that case, he wouldn't have so much trouble,

Therefore, Xiao Yan now utterly hates this Lin Feng!

However, thinking of not far away, there is still an Elder of the Dan Tower watching here.

If he dares to cause trouble here, he would likely be directly stripped of his qualification to participate, and thus have no chance at all with the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire.

Furthermore, he currently lacks confidence in defeating Lin Feng.

So, even if he still dislikes looking at Lin Feng.

Now he can only suppress his anger, find an empty spot on the open ground to sit down, and wait quietly.

"Looks like Xiao Yan, during my secluded cultivation, has indeed absorbed a new strange fire. But how did he obtain the strange fire? Could it be that he was lucky and happened to find a strange fire somewhere in Zhongzhou?"

Just as Xiao Yan was jumping up and down in anger, Lin Feng lightly stroked his chin, puzzled in his heart.

However, he was still very puzzled in his heart.

But upon seeing Cao Ying and Dan Chen, he still waved at them, gesturing for them to come over.

Cao Ying, seeing that, immediately gave a bewitching smile, moved her alluring round long legs that made people's eyes greedily linger, and walked over slowly.

As for Dan Chen, upon seeing Lin Feng, for some reason her gaze flickered away.

Moreover, her exquisite little face would occasionally flush with a hint of crimson.

However, after pondering for a while, she finally gritted her silver teeth and walked toward Lin Feng's side.

Cao Ying came to the other side beside Lin Feng, just like Xiao Yixian, and sat down closely next to him.

Then, her crimson beautiful eyes fixed on the extremely shy Dan Chen, and she teased, "How come, Dan Chen sis, are you shy because you saw your fiancé?"

Hearing the former's teasing, Dan Chen immediately retorted with a blushing pretty face, "Don't talk nonsense; we'll only get engaged after the Dan Assembly, so Lin Feng is definitely not my fiancé now."

Speaking of that, Dan Chen's voice suddenly grew weak.

It seems she is indeed very shy.

Next, she simply stopped paying attention to Cao Ying, and silently sat beside Xiao Yixian, closing her beautiful eyes, waiting for the second stage to open.
