Chapter 968

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng glanced over the fiery red jade scroll, then lightly nodded and said, "Fine, but you'll have to wait a moment for me; I'll first erase the soul imprint within the Bone Spirit Cold Fire."

As soon as his words fell, Lin Feng, likewise too lazy to say more, moved his figure, entered the void again, and vanished within the hall.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan frowned slightly, then said nothing more, simply staying where he was, waiting for his return.

After all, the former proactively erased the soul imprint; for them, it was only beneficial, with no drawbacks.

Therefore, he was also quite willing to continue waiting for a while.

As for Lin Feng on the other side, after entering the void he immediately summoned his Heavenly Phoenix Wings, gave them a strong flap, simultaneously employed Subtle Light Flash, and shot toward the depths of the void like a gust of wind and lightning.

The speed was so great that even some intermediate-stage Dou Zun broke into a sweat.

After flying like that for an hour, Lin Feng finally slowed to a stop.

After scanning his surroundings, the soul power at his brow immediately spread out, carefully perceiving every area he could sense.

Only after confirming safety and that no one was following did Lin Feng close his eyes slightly, then lightly place his palm on his glabella.

Next, a white flame pattern abruptly appeared on his forehead.

"Come out!"

Then Lin Feng let out a loud shout, his finger tapping the white flame pattern, and he pulled outward with force.

"Bang~"

With that pull, a cluster of black flame was immediately drawn out by him.

And when that black flame reached the outside world, Lin Feng immediately opened his mouth to inhale,

At the same time, that cluster of black flame not far away was suddenly pulled by that suction force he emitted, forming a "tail" that continuously flew toward his mouth.

As the black flame diminished, the white flame sealed within it gradually came back into contact with the outside air.

As for the source of this flame, it was precisely the Bone Spirit Cold Fire that Han Shan Shan inhabited.

"Bang!"

As soon as the Bone Spirit Cold Fire appeared, the flame immediately emitted a ripple.

Next, a face emerged at the center of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire.

"You're letting me out now—are you planning to let me go?"

As soon as she emerged, Han Shan Shan's impatient tone sounded slowly beside Lin Feng's ear.

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng also nodded expressionlessly, then said, "That's right; now Yao Chen and his disciple have come to fetch you. Now, give me that greater Bone Spirit Cold Fire, and then I'll hand you over to him."

"Then why don't you just give me to him directly?"

Upon hearing that the former wanted her to hand over another Bone Spirit Cold Fire to him, Han Shan Shan's tone instantly grew a bit wary.

Seeing this, Lin Feng furrowed his brows, gazed at Han Shan Shan as if looking at a fool, and said speechlessly, "Yao Chen's disciple, like me, can absorb multiple flames; if he saw you handing over the greater Bone Spirit Cold Fire to me, he'd probably explode on the spot. I don't have the leisure to fight him now, so it's better to just take the Strange Fire from your hand directly—this way I can save a lot of trouble."

"Besides, if I didn't want to trade with you, I could simply absorb this Bone Spirit Cold Fire directly, after all, a Strange Fire is a Strange Fire—whether larger or smaller, if it's mature, the difference isn't that great."

"Mm, okay then."

After a moment's thought, Han Shan Shan helplessly nodded.

Unaware of the existence of the Burning Scripture, she now believed Lin Feng could only merge multiple flames, not absorb the energy within Strange Fire.

For ordinary people, the difference between these two Bone Spirit Cold Fires is indeed not that large.

After all, ordinary people must first dissipate the energy inside a Strange Fire before they can successfully absorb it.

But as the energy dissipates, the various aspects of a stronger Strange Fire indeed find it hard to create a gap with a weaker one.

Of course, if the difference between the two were truly too great, then there would be nothing to be done.

Following Han Shan Shan's realization, the Bone Spirit Cold Fire before Lin Feng suddenly burst forth with a white light.

Next, a naked woman appeared before him.

After emerging, Han Shan Shan thought she would soon see Yao Chen, and also did not want Lin Feng to stare at her naked body for too long.

She then hastily gestured with her jade hand, produced another greater Bone Spirit Cold Fire, and quickly tossed it toward Lin Feng.

At the same time, she, bare-bottomed, hastily turned and flew back into the lesser Bone Spirit Cold Fire.

However, Lin Feng paid no mind to that puzzling action of hers.

When he saw Han Shan Shan toss out the Bone Spirit Cold Fire he wanted, he hastily summoned the Strange Fire within his body, encircling that white Strange Fire under her control, which offered no resistance,

Next, his soul power surged forth, leaving a mark within that greater Bone Spirit Cold Fire.

"Now that you have the greater Bone Spirit Cold Fire in hand, can you return me to Yao Chen?"

Feeling that she had lost control of that Bone Spirit Cold Fire, her voice again drifted softly from within that previous white flame.

"Hehe, rest assured, I still have this bit of integrity."

Hearing that hint of worry in her tone, Lin Feng, in high spirits, gave a hehe laugh, then gestured with his palm to draw the greater Bone Spirit Cold Fire into his palm.

As soon as the Strange Fire entered his hand, Lin Feng quickly shrank it, then tapped his forehead with his palm and stored it away.

Immediately thereafter, he nonstop formed hand seals with both hands, personally erasing the soul imprint on that lesser Bone Spirit Cold Fire.

"Huu~"

Seeing him erase that flame's soul imprint, Han Shan Shan also let out a great sigh of relief.

After all, the former has now erased the soul imprint on the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, indicating that he likely has no intention of regretting it.

As for Lin Feng, after erasing that lesser Bone Spirit Cold Fire's imprint, he grabbed it, turned, and shot outward at extreme speed.

However, this time he did not use the Heavenly Phoenix Wings as before.

"Whoosh~"

After an unknown amount of time, the space at the center of that previous hall suddenly began to twist.

Next, Lin Feng appeared within the sight of Xiao Yan, his master and disciple, and Cai Ling and the others.

"This is Bone Spirit Cold Fire; I have already removed its soul imprint, and your teacher has previously absorbed it as well, plus you yourself possess Strange Fire. Whether true or false, you'll know at a glance."

Saying that, Lin Feng tossed the white flame bound by the black fire net in his hand, lifted his gaze slightly, and looked toward Xiao Yan, saying, "Now, prove the technique you hold in your hand."

Upon hearing that, Xiao Yan and his teacher exchanged a glance and lightly nodded.

They were all quite certain that the white strange fire in the former's hand was the genuine Bone Spirit Cold Fire.

One of them was the former master of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, while the other was the possessor of multiple strange fires.

The probability of both making a mistake at the same time almost tends to zero.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan's heart stirred; he handed the fiery red jade scroll in his hand to Yao Chen, then the two simultaneously rose from their chairs and walked to a spot several meters in front of Lin Feng.

"Just let that girl come take it, confirm on the spot that there's no problem, then you return the Bone Spirit Cold Fire to us."

Having come to a point not far in front of Lin Feng, Xiao Yan lifted his chin toward Cai Lin's position and spoke in a low voice.

With his teacher's strength, if he were to face that woman, it would basically be a crushing victory; with just a gesture, he could easily capture her.

Therefore, letting that woman go to his teacher to obtain the technique and then verify the goods on the spot is undoubtedly an excellent idea.

This way, he could both put Lin Feng at ease and, if the former dared to have any ulterior motives, he would immediately have his teacher seize that woman, thereby threatening the former to hand over the Bone Spirit Cold Fire.

And Lin Feng, upon hearing the former's transaction method, gave it some thought, then nodded and said: "Alright."

Having said that, he turned his head toward Cai Lin, signaling her to come over and inspect the goods.

Seeing this, Cai Lin gave the former an all-clear look, then rose to her feet, lifted her long jade legs, walked up to Yao Chen, and took the scroll of the Heavenly Step Technique.

Immediately afterward, she closed her eyes slightly, and her soul power seeped into the scroll, beginning to examine the contents of this technique.

"No problem, this scroll of technique is genuine."

A moment later, Medusa's beautiful eyes opened again, and she spoke toward Lin Feng's side.

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng immediately turned his gaze to Xiao Yan, his voice somewhat louder: "I will now give you the Bone Spirit Cold Fire; my wife will begin to retreat, and no one is allowed to play tricks."

"I am not."

Hearing the former's lack of trust in him, Xiao Yan was about to retort, but then recalled his past exploits, and he immediately retorted angrily: "I naturally know this; let's hurry up and finish the trade, then we'll leave immediately. I don't want to stay in this place a moment longer."

As for the latter part of the former's words, Lin Feng simply chose to ignore them.

However, after reminding Cai Lin and the opposite side, he immediately flicked his finger, shooting the Bone Spirit Cold Fire hovering above his palm outward rapidly.

However, the direction of his flick was not toward Xiao Yan opposite him, but rather toward Yao Chen on the other side!

Upon seeing the strange fire flying toward him, the latter instinctively reached out and caught it.

As for Cai Lin standing before him, she took this opportunity to retreat to Lin Feng's side.

"Hmph!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yan immediately let out a cold snort from his nose.

This action of the former was clearly a guard against him, directly flicking the Bone Spirit Cold Fire toward his own teacher to prevent him from making any other moves.

After all, his teacher would surely have no free hands to act against that beautiful woman while catching the Bone Spirit Cold Fire.

As for Yao Chen, upon catching the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, he was certain and sure that the strange fire in his hand was genuine.

After all, if he still couldn't tell the difference, he might as well not struggle and simply give the strange fire to Lin Feng.
