Chapter 83: Zi Yan: Goodbye, I will miss you!

【Venerable Tianhuo feels gratitude, Emotion Value +60】

"Then I shall thank you in advance, little friend! Once this old man's physical body is restored, if you have any instructions, little friend, just say the word!"

Venerable Tianhuo's eyes brightened, and the look he gave Gu Fei was filled with gratitude.

However, the hesitant expression on Gu Fei's face made Venerable Tianhuo somewhat unsure of his meaning.

"Little friend, is there something amiss?"

"It is nothing, it is just that to resurrect you, I am still missing some necessary items for the time being!"

Venerable Tianhuo, who had been standing by on standby, felt a jolt through his entire being upon hearing Gu Fei's shout; he then turned ethereal and streaked directly toward the corpse.

"Elder Li, Elder Wang, you must protect me!"

Within a single breath, that young man and the two Dou Zong were all killed by Gu Fei.

It was not surprising to possess a Sixth Rank flying Magical Beast in this Dan Region; the people opposite seemed to not take Gu Fei's group seriously at all.

Next, Gu Fei began to temper that body with Exotic Fire, adding some Magical Beast Essence Blood to make the body's energy abundant; with the integration of those Magical Beast Essence Bloods, the corpse gradually became full of vitality.

A moment later, Gu Fei made a decision in his heart, intending to go to the Dan Region to give it a try.

Venerable Tianhuo set his heart at ease; he believed that a person like Gu Fei would not easily go back on his word.

That Three Thousand Burning Flame was trapped within the Pill Tower Star Domain and had not been refined by anyone, and there was an opportunity for everyone to go and try.

However, with this resurrection, his strength did not reach the peak of his past years, only appearing to be a Two-Star Dou Zun; it was estimated that it would take a few years to return to his former state.

Thus, Venerable Tianhuo's soul temporarily returned to the Storage Ring; Gu Fei would only begin to act and help him restore his physical body when a suitable human body was found.

Upon hearing this, Venerable Tianhuo did not hesitate in the slightest; a wisp of soul power immediately separated from the center of his brow and drifted toward Gu Fei.

When the body's vitality reached its peak, Gu Fei shouted loudly.

Gu Fei said calmly; although he had not tried it before, he possessed strong confidence that he could successfully perform this resurrection method.

Although Venerable Tianhuo did not like to talk, he was also infected by this lively atmosphere.

However, to get this opportunity, one must first obtain a spot in the top ten of the so-called Pill Gathering.

Watching this scene, Xiao Yixian, Qing Lin, and the others did not have much of a reaction; if it were them, and they had sufficient strength, they would also kill as ruthlessly as Gu Fei—after all, they had heard what these people said just now.

"Old Mister Yao, enter!"

This was because, although Gu Fei did not lack the Pill for refining the body or the Magical Beast Essence Blood, he did not have the habit of carrying human corpses with him.

Following this, there was one more person traveling with Gu Fei.

After Xiao Yixian noticed this, she asked: "Zi Yan, is there something on your mind?"

If one's strength were insufficient and they fell into their hands, the outcome would certainly be very tragic.

The young man hurriedly hid behind the two elders.

That young man had not expected that he would kick an iron plate this time, and that even the two Elders could not protect him.

"Too late..."

Opposite Gu Fei, there were three other flying Magical Beasts; the leader was a youth in his twenties, and at this moment, the youth was looking at Gu Fei's group with a playful expression.

"Let's go..."

"Butcher that Magical Beast for me, kill the men, and keep the women to warm the bed for this young master..."

The Pill Tower stipulates that only the top ten of the Pill Gathering can have the opportunity to attempt to subdue the Three Thousand Burning Flame.

Next, Gu Fei found a nearby place, took out the Pill, several bottles of Magical Beast Essence Blood, and that corpse, and released Venerable Tianhuo's soul from the Storage Ring.

Along the way, most of the time was relatively peaceful, but it was not absolute; on the evening of the next day, Gu Fei's group had a conflict with a certain force in the Dan Region.

Seeing this terrifying scene, the young man's face turned deathly pale with fright; among those who died, there was actually a Dou Zong who was killed without any warning just like that.

Then he flicked a Pill from his hand toward Venerable Tianhuo: "Consume it, and as soon as I give the word, you must immediately enter the body!"

He carefully recalled the original story and discovered that, on the surface, the only known Exotic Fire that had not been refined by anyone seemed to be the Three Thousand Burning Flame imprisoned by the Pill Tower.

Grabbing this wisp of soul power, Gu Fei casually cast it into the corpse.

And the two elders beside him also revealed cruel smiles.

Upon entering this body, Venerable Tianhuo felt as if his whole body was being scorched by heat; clearly, he should have cried out in pain, yet his heart laughed heartily.

"What?"

These two elders had cultivation levels of Seven-Star Dou Zong and Eight-Star Dou Zong respectively; at this moment, both of them were somewhat timid, because Gu Fei's strike just now made them feel immense pressure.

"Senior! We were foolish, we hope Senior will not hold a grudge against us!" One of them hurriedly lowered his head and said with a trembling voice.

"It just so happens I was worrying about having no corpse to use yesterday, you all delivered it just in time..."

"No matter, this old man has waited for so many years, I don't mind waiting a little longer..."

The Pill Tower stands in Shengdan Cheng, which is the central location of the entire Central Plains; Gu Fei is currently in the Dan Region, so it is not troublesome.

"Great kindness, no need for thanks! From now on, this old man will follow your lead, little friend!"

"Any rule can be broken, as long as one has sufficient strength!"

But as long as he could offer sufficient benefits, perhaps the Pill Tower side could make an exception and let an outsider like him give it a try.

Among them, the corpse of the elder whose cultivation reached Eight-Star Dou Zong was kept by Gu Fei, intending to use this body to resurrect Venerable Tianhuo.

Gu Fei's next focus would still be on collecting and refining Exotic Fire.

Gu Fei shook his head lightly and said.

This time, after finally resolving the hidden danger of Xiao Yixian's Woeful Poison Body.

【Venerable Tianhuo feels gratitude, Emotion Value +50】

The long-lost feeling made Venerable Tianhuo unable to help but have tears in his eyes.

After opening his eyes again, Venerable Tianhuo felt that he had truly come back to life, no longer just an ethereal soul.

The top ten of the Pill Gathering was not a difficult task for Gu Fei, but now, there were still several years until the Pill Gathering was held, so Gu Fei naturally would not wait until that time to go.

Venerable Tianhuo nodded with a solemn expression and, without hesitation, stuffed the Pill directly into his mouth, his eyes flashing with excitement.

"Old Mister Yao, give me a sliver of soul power!"

Hearing the words of the person opposite him, a trace of killing intent also appeared in Gu Fei's eyes; as his palm flipped, everyone except that young man and the two old men beside him was shattered to pieces.

Although he had already promised Venerable Tianhuo that he would help him reshape his physical body, at least for the short term, Gu Fei could not resurrect him yet.

One day, while Zi Yan was tossing a handful of medicinal pills into her mouth to chew, her figure suddenly stiffened, and her expression suddenly became somewhat strange.

Gu Fei said coldly that if he did not have sufficiently strong power, the one who would die would be himself; therefore, Gu Fei would not go soft on these people.

"Big Sister Xiao Yixian... I seem to have sensed an aura that is connected to my bloodline."

Zi Yan spoke in a somewhat bewildered manner, her gaze slowly looking toward the direction of that faint, indistinct aura.
