Chapter 787

Soul qi is the foundation of the soul, hard to change by external force. Even if you obtained that soul origin, at most it could only let me recover some soul power; wanting to replenish my origin soul qi is still impossible.

Saying this, Yao Chen pondered briefly, then continued: 'But in this vast continent, there are two strange objects that have the divine effect of restoring origin soul qi.'

Which two?

Hearing there was a way to restore the former's origin soul qi, Xiao Yan asked eagerly with an expectant face.

Soul Infant Fruit and Spirit Dragon Heavenly Herb.

Seeing Xiao Yan's urgency, Yao Chen stroked his beard slightly, somewhat dejectedly said: 'These two, as long as you can obtain one of them, you can restore the soul qi I have lost. But unfortunately, the rarity of these two strange objects surpasses even that of strange fires; even I have only seen them a few times in ancient texts.'

Hearing that, Xiao Yan's heart also sank involuntarily.

Never imagined that after rescuing my teacher, thinking everything was ready, another problem arose.

Damned Soul Hall!

Thinking of the chief culprit, Xiao Yan clenched his teeth in hatred.

If we can't always find those two things to replenish soul qi, wouldn't it mean my teacher could never have a body?

And the Wind Venerable beside him also furrowed his brows tightly, his expression turning very grim.

Afterward, Xiao Yan asked unwillingly: 'Teacher, is there really no other way?'

Hearing that, Yao Chen shook his head and said nothing.

Seeing the former's silent response, Xiao Yan's fists also involuntarily clenched tightly.

But soon, he seemed to think of something, then exclaimed delightedly: 'Teacher, we haven't reached the point of despair yet; perhaps I have a way as well.'

Xiao Yan, what do you have?

Hearing the former's words, the Wind Venerable beside him, who had been silent for a long time, couldn't help but ask.

I previously made a deal with the Ancient Clan to have them obtain three strange fires for me; they only gave me Volcanic Stone Flame and Nine Dragon Thunder Lightning Fire, leaving one strange fire unfulfilled. Perhaps I can change this condition, exchanging that remaining strange fire for the Soul Infant Fruit or the Spirit Dragon Heavenly Herb.

Xiao Yan clenched his hands, speaking somewhat excitedly.

Ancient Clan? No wonder you, kid, could find so many strange fires in just a few short years; it turns out you had the Ancient Clan's help.

Hearing those two words, Yao Chen's eyebrows immediately twitched slightly.

He had already known before that Xiao Xun'er, that girl, is a member of the Ancient Clan.

However, logically speaking, although that girl holds a high status.

But wanting the Ancient Clan to pay such a high price to exchange strange fire for Xiao Yan, an outsider, should be impossible.

Thinking this, Yao Chen also felt extremely curious about whether the Ancient Clan would seek strange fire for Xiao Yan.

However, seeing that Xiao Yan did not bring it up voluntarily, he also did not continue to inquire further.

Immediately after, he frowned and said: 'Although I don't know why the Ancient Clan would help you find strange fire, you must consider: if you exchange the condition for the Soul Infant Fruit or the Spirit Dragon Heavenly Herb, you will lose one strange fire. That thing is also hard to find.'

Teacher, you previously cultivated me, giving your all, even willing to give me your own possessions. Now the disciple merely gives up one strange fire; what is there to be reluctant about?

Hearing that, Xiao Yan immediately spoke with a firm tone.

The former once wholeheartedly treated him; now in trouble, he naturally could not ignore it.

Yao Chen, you have found a good disciple this time!

The Wind Venerable beside him, seeing this, instantly showed a hint of relief on his aged face.

Because when that Dou Emperor's relic was opened initially, he also followed Yao Chen into it for that reason.

That volume of Flame Scripture, the former also told him about it.

Therefore, he also clearly understands what strange fire represents for those who cultivate that technique.

As for Yao Chen, his pale face was also filled with a color of relief.

By the way, teacher, do you still know the exact location of the tomb of that Half-Saint Expert with the Misfortune Poison Body you mentioned before?

After a moment of silence, Xiao Yan suddenly asked.

The tomb of the possessor of the Misfortune Poison Body?

Hearing Xiao Yan suddenly jump to such a topic, bringing the discussion here.

Yao Chen first stared slightly, then nodded: 'I know that place. How come, did you meet a poison-attributed friend?'

Hearing that, Xiao Yan wryly shook his head: 'No, on the contrary, I have a poison-attributed enemy, and that person is also a Misfortune Poison Body.'

Immediately after, he gazed at Yao Chen and said: 'When we first entered Heijiaoyu, we encountered that auction; do you still remember it?'

Hearing of that auction, Yao Chen nodded.

Although several years have passed, his strong soul power still lets him remember it clearly.

Seeing that, Xiao Yan continued to explain: 'At that auction, the person who proposed exchanging to seal the Misfortune Poison Body was Lin Feng. And one of his wives is the possessor of the Misfortune Poison Body.'

What?!

Hearing this, Yao Chen instantly felt somewhat confused.

If that's the case, then back then they essentially gave the poison elixir method to their enemy, didn't they?

Immediately after, he again hurriedly asked: 'Could it be that Lin Feng successfully obtained three strange fires and used them to seal his wife's Misfortune Poison Body?'

Hearing that, this time it was Xiao Yan who nodded.

Sigh.

Seeing the former's answer, Yao Chen heaved a heavy sigh.

But thinking that things have come to this, with no chance to change, Yao Chen's face immediately turned bitter as he said: 'Xiao Yan, you saying this now, could it be that you want to take the tomb location of that Half-Saint Expert to trade with Lin Feng?'

That's right.

After saying that, Xiao Yan spoke somewhat conflictedly: 'When I met him before, since I knew this but didn't know the exact address, I prepared to use this information to deceive him and retrieve your belongings. But I never expected Lin Feng to be so cunning, never falling for it, so I reluctantly gave up.'

However, in this process, I unexpectedly learned that Lin Feng's guy had news of other strange fires. According to him, that strange fire ranks extremely high; even the ninth-ranked Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire on the strange fire list would only end up being swallowed whole in front of it.

Hearing this, although Xiao Yan did not continue speaking, the experienced Yao Chen quickly guessed where Xiao Yan's hesitation lay.

Let's exchange the news of that strange fire.

After pondering for a moment, Yao Chen finally made his choice.

Afterwards, seeing Xiao Yan open his mouth wanting to say something, the former stretched out his hand to stop him, and then said: "Compared to my things, what's more important now is for you to grow up. After all, once the Bone Spirit Chill Fire and I are revived, we can go to that kid's residence nearby and summon it back. As for the things inside the Bone Flame Ring, when you grow up, marry that girl from the Ancient Clan home. By then, perhaps you won't even look down on this old man's things."

Speaking of that, Yao Chen also made a small joke, livening the atmosphere.

"Master, don't tease me. You've been wandering the continent for so long, you certainly aren't unaware of the tempers of those ancient races. Every time I see those Ancient Clan people, I feel the urge to step forward and punch them a few times."

Hearing about his girlfriend's matter, Xiao Yan gave a bitter smile and shook his head.

"Hehe, even without mentioning those, at under thirty years old you've already achieved the rank of one-star Dou Zun. If you can find enough strange fires, you might yet be able to step into the Dou Saint realm!"

When saying those two words, Yao Chen's eyes also flashed with a hint of longing, then he laughed: "By then, my things—whether you go to Lin Feng's place to seize them back or gather them yourself—won't be difficult."

"Therefore, no matter how you look at it, exchanging the location of this Half-Saint expert's tomb for Lin Feng's strange fire information is more worthwhile."

Upon hearing that, Wind Venerable also expressed strong agreement: "Yao Chen is right; no matter from which angle you look, that strange fire information is more important than this guy's storage ring."

"Hey, Feng Xian, what do you mean, looking down on my collection?"

Seeing his appearance, Yao Chen instantly refused, rolled up his sleeves, and seemed ready to duel Feng Xian.

"Yao Chen, although I used to be beaten by you every day, with your current state I alone could take on a hundred of you."

Feng Xian glanced up and down at Yao Chen, then smiled and said.

Upon hearing that, Yao Chen instantly jumped up and down in anger, but lacking strength, he had no way against Feng Xian.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yan was somewhat speechless.

Although he knew Yao Chen had a good relationship with Wind Venerable, he hadn't expected it to be this good.

Looking at this, I guess they could even share a pair of pants.
