Chapter 739: Yao Lao's Information

Thinking of the exotic fire, Xiao Yan instantly forgot his still-unrecovered body, leapt off the bed with excitement and said, "In that case, if we can learn from Lin Feng who lent the exotic fire to him, wouldn't I then have a chance to obtain that person's exotic fire!"

"In theory, that is indeed the case."

Seeing the agitated Xiao Yan, Mysterious Attire smiled and shook his head, saying, "However, Lin Feng is unlikely to tell you that enemy so easily; after all, he also knows you're fixated on the exotic fire."

Hearing that, Xiao Yan smiled confidently, "Since Xiao Yixian is a cursed toxic body, we can use that to make Lin Feng reveal the exotic fire owner's information to us."

"That can indeed be tried; how you use this information is up to you."

Hearing that, Mysterious Void Master did not object, but let him decide how to use the information.

Just as he finished speaking, Mysterious Attire continued, "Also, regarding your teacher, there are already some leads."

"What?!"

Hearing the news, Xiao Yan's expression instantly turned extremely delighted, and he hurriedly asked, "Mysterious Aunt, where is my teacher now? I'll go right away to find a way to rescue the old man."

He still highly values Yao Lao, his guide.

Now that he finally has news about his teacher, who was taken by the Soul Hall for several years, his emotions uncontrollably surge with excitement.

Seeing his anxious demeanor, Mysterious Attire nodded appreciatively and then chuckled lightly, "You don't need to rush; I've already sent someone to verify. At most two months, there will be news."

Hearing his words, Xiao Yan's emotions only then steadied a bit.

Then, after a brief contemplation, he thought of his own strength in the Eight-Star Dou Sect, which had been beaten in the star domain by the Eight Celestial Venerable to the point of having almost no counterattack capability.

Thus, he clenched his fists and said, "Since that's the case, I can use this time to improve my strength. Then, when rescuing my teacher, I'll be more confident!"

Thinking that he still has an unabsorbed Nine‑Dragon Thunder‑Force Fire in his hand, a flash of brilliance briefly flickered in Xiao Yan's eyes.

That Nine‑Dragon Thunder‑Force Fire is the twelfth‑ranked exotic fire on the exotic fire list, just one rank below his teacher's Bone Spirit Cold Fire.

If he can absorb it, his strength will surely surge dramatically!

Hearing that, the three big heads also nodded in agreement.

Then, Mysterious Void Master added, "But before that, you should first heal your injuries. Although I forced those toxins out of your body, the damage the toxins caused earlier was a mess, and it will take some time to recover."

"Hmm."

Xiao Yan sensed the somewhat terrible condition inside his body, then immediately nodded.

Being very familiar with exotic fire, he knew that in his current state, trying to absorb the Nine‑Dragon Thunder‑Force Fire would almost certainly be fatal.

Therefore, he naturally had to heal his wounds first; he couldn't gamble with his life.

Seeing this, Mysterious Void Master said, "Since that's the case, the three of us will first attend to the Pill Tower matters. Earlier, a group of strong ones from the Soul Hall took advantage of our need to maintain the star domain, wreaked havoc in Sacred Pill City, killing many Seventh Grade and below alchemists. We have plenty to keep us busy for the time being."

As soon as the words finished, Mysterious Void Master immediately prepared to leave the room.

However, just as he was about to leave, he suddenly recalled something and stopped his steps.

Then, he lightly brushed his storage ring and retrieved a corpse from it.

At the moment the body appeared, a faint human silhouette also swooped out from it.

"Senior, you're not dead—so good!"

Xiao Yan, seeing him produce a body, first wore a puzzled expression, but after recognizing the soul body's appearance, he was extremely surprised.

He had originally thought that after the Two‑Star Dou Venerable was defeated by the Eight Celestial Venerable, he would be taken by the Soul Hall.

But he didn't expect that he could still appear here now!

"Sigh, I was also lucky; after being knocked away by that Soul Hall Dou Venerable, I happened to meet Mysterious Void Master; otherwise, in my current soul‑body state, I would probably have been shredded by the void's spatial storms."

Hearing that, the Two‑Star Dou Venerable gave a wry smile.

At the same time, he regretted why he had taken that job in the first place.

Now, not to mention alchemy, he has even lost his physical body.

In this state, he cannot replenish his strength; in a few decades he will likely vanish completely from this world.

Thinking of this, the old man spoke with a hint of pleading, "Gentlemen, in my current state I can do nothing more. I still hope, given the face I showed when I fought to the death that day, that you will grant some compensation to my family."

Hearing that, Mysterious Void Master gave a mysterious smile and calmly said, "Compensation for you, the president, is certainly inevitable, but that thing is not for your family; it is for you."

"For me?"

Hearing his words, the Two‑Star Dou Venerable was first stunned, then replied in disbelief, "In my current ghostly form, even if you gave me an Eighth Grade Nine‑Color Pill, I could not be revived!"

Although he is only a Seventh Grade Pinnacle Alchemist, he still knows something about certain matters.

There are many pills on the market that claim to revive the dead, but none truly can.

At least, he has never heard of such a pill.

"Hehe, Xiao Yan happens to have a secret technique that can help a soul‑body regain a flesh body."

Hearing that, Mysterious Void Master immediately smiled and cleared the Two‑Star Dou Venerable's doubts.

After all, Xiao Yan's strength is still weak; when he goes to the Soul Hall's sub‑hall to rescue Yao Lao, he will need some Dou Venerable assistance.

But opposing the Soul Hall makes it hard to find helpers.

Therefore, this ready‑made helper before them must be seized properly.

In the meantime, he gave Xiao Yan a look, urging him to subdue this Dou Venerable.

"This is true!"

Hearing that he might still revive, the Two‑Star Dou Venerable's eyes instantly filled with hope as he looked at Xiao Yan beside him.

Then he quickly clasped his hands and said, "Little brother Xiao Yan, as long as you can restore my flesh body, thereafter… as long as you give the word, I will certainly obey!"

Although he has now fallen to this state, he still has some connection with Xiao Yan.

But now he is pleading to others, so his attitude is naturally very humble.

After all, for him now, restoring his flesh is paramount.

Otherwise, his soul state can only last a few decades at most.

Then it will fade away as the soul's source is exhausted.
