Chapter 788: then translation of chapter title

Teacher, Lin Feng is also a one-star Battle Sovereign, just like us, and none of us dare to take that strange fire. With our current strength, do we have the ability to get our hands on it?

Thinking of that guy Lin Feng, who himself doesn't go to that place to get the strange fire, Xiao Yan felt a sudden worry well up in his heart.

Hearing his disciple's worry, Yao Chen furrowed his brows slightly, stroked his beard lightly, and said, "Even so, if you want the strange fire, you can only take that risk."

However, since that kid described that strange fire as miraculous, it's likely its ranking on the list isn't low. One could say this is a situation where opportunity and risk coexist.

As he spoke, Yao Chen waved his hand, indicating that Xiao Yan should choose for himself.

Immediately afterward, he told Xiao Yan the address of the tomb of that half-Saint expert.

After hearing Yao Chen's words, he could only nod helplessly.

In his heart, he had already made a decision at this moment.

After all, it was hard to come by information about a high-ranking strange fire, and he really didn't want to miss it just like that.

Immediately afterward, he looked at Yao Chen and said, "Teacher, I will now immediately contact the Ancient Clan to see if I can get you a Soul Infant Fruit or a Spirit Dragon Heavenly Herb."

"Good."

Hearing that, Yao Chen also nodded slightly, somewhat excited.

Having lost his body for decades, he now also couldn't wait to regain his flesh.

After all, this soul state is really unbearable!

However, thinking of the other materials needed for his resurrection, Yao Chen immediately asked curiously, "Have you prepared the other magical beast essence blood and bodies?"

"Um, Aunt Xuan personally ran to several places, expending considerable effort, and finally secured for you a corpse that had the strength of a three-star Battle Sovereign in life, as well as a batch of magical beast essence blood of the level of a two-star Battle Sovereign. As for reviving that Bone Fusion Blood Pill, she also personally refined it to the highest quality."

Hearing that, Xiao Yan nodded and explained the origins of those materials.

"That woman"

Hearing this, Yao Chen also felt somewhat moved.

After all, he had previously taken a liking to Xuan Yi, but in order to wholeheartedly cultivate Han Feng, he painfully refused her.

Now, hearing that Xuan Yi had been busy gathering the materials needed for his resurrection, he couldn't help but feel a deep sense of gratitude.

Seeing her appearance, Xiao Yan and Wind Venerable exchanged a light smile, then silently walked out.

However, while Xiao Yan and his three companions were rejoicing, in a dense forest a little over ten li away from the Falling Star Pavilion, an old man's face was extremely grim.

And if any capable individuals were present, they would recognize him as the Grand Elder Qiu Ling of the Pill Tower, who had recently lost his personal disciple.

"Damn it, with so many strong fighters beside Xiao Yan, it seems I cannot avenge my poor disciple this time; I can only return empty-handed."

Qiu Ling unconsciously gripped the trunk of the nearby large tree, his voice tinged with deep helplessness.

He had originally thought that seeing Xiao Yan leave Sacred Pill City meant the opportunity to avenge his disciple had arrived, so he immediately rushed to lurk around the Falling Star Pavilion.

But he never expected that after waiting so long, he would see Xiao Yan return accompanied by several Battle Sovereigns.

Given the overwhelming disparity in strength, he also had to temporarily give up on revenge.

"By the way, I might be able to team up with Lin Feng; he also bears a grudge against Xiao Yan. If I personally go to his door, there's no reason he would refuse."

Thinking of Lin Feng, who also bears a grudge against Xiao Yan, a hint of contemplation flashed in Qiu Ling's eyes.

He then pulled his hand back from the tree, moved his body, and sped toward Sacred Pill City.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng, who had already returned to the Ye Courtyard, naturally had no idea that Qiu Ling was on his way here.

He was currently sitting at the wooden table in a room of the Ye Courtyard.

Also present were Xiao Yixian, Feng Qinger, the Three Beauties of the Pill Tower, and Zi Yan and a few others.

Before them on the wooden table lay numerous black cloth bags and several jade boxes.

As for what's inside, it goes without saying that they are the souls and soul origins seized from the Soul Hall branches during this operation.

"'My lord, those Battle Sovereigns under my command, due to needing to garrison elsewhere, couldn't come out, so only nine people participated in this operation. They formed three groups of three, attacked three branches, and obtained about six hundred thousand souls, roughly five hundred Soul Hall Protectors, and three soul origins.'"

As she spoke, Feng Qinger pointed to some of the cloth bags and continued, "These are the souls taken by my master from a branch guarded by a one-star Battle Sovereign expert; their number is roughly comparable to the total from the previous three branches. Moreover, the soul origin found there is larger than the one I previously absorbed, and it would likely require at least four hundred thousand souls to condense into such a large soul origin."

"'A one-star Battle Sovereign? No wonder the number of souls is so high.'"

Hearing that, Lin Feng also felt quite surprised.

He had also not expected that the expert guarding the branch that Thunder Venerable went to was actually much stronger than the Seven Sovereigns.

At this point, Feng Qinger continued, "As for the roughly two hundred thousand souls, over a hundred Soul Hall Protectors, and one soul origin, those are my gains."

"'What I obtained from that branch is not much different from hers.'"

After the former finished speaking, Xiao Yixian immediately spoke up.

"'Hehe, because my situation is rather special, I had just collected a little when a mysterious expert interrupted me. Therefore, this time I only obtained twenty thousand souls and a few dozen Soul Hall Protectors.'"

After the two women finished reporting their gains, Zi Yan immediately rubbed her palm over her storage ring, took out three soul sacks with a somewhat embarrassed expression.

"'A mysterious expert?'"

Hearing that, Lin Feng didn't pay much attention to the former's gains, but the mysterious expert mentioned by Zi Yan caught his attention.

After a moment of contemplation, Lin Feng looked at Zi Yan and said, "Girl, tell me the whole process of Xiao Yan's rescue of Yao Chen at that time."

"'Oh.'"

Hearing Lin Feng's interest in this matter, Zi Yan nodded her little head and then explained, "At that time, after Xiao Yan led a group into the branch, he went alone to rescue that old man, while the others were trapped inside by formations set up by three Soul Hall experts."

"'And after I followed Xiao Yan into the room dedicated to storing souls, I began secretly collecting souls, but not long after I started, I smelled a strange odor and then hid.'"

"'Finally, that old man used a crystal hand seal fighting technique to save Xiao Yan. As for those Soul Hall people, fearing to anger that old man, they could only watch helplessly as those who escaped got away. Seeing that I no longer had a chance to steal souls, I ran back.'"
