Dou Po Zhi from humble beginnings to Dou Di

Arriving at a distance, Lin Feng gazed at the towering city walls, a look of amazement flashing in his eyes.

The Black Imperial City truly lives up to its name; its magnificent scale does not diminish the imperial aura it carries.

The pitch-black city wall, stretching to the horizon, gleamed like a mirror, reflecting a faint light.

Those who know their stuff will be able to spot the surface of this city wall.

The city that was burned to death was far from those rare layers of black mirror stone.

The city walls built with this material have the option of rebounding.

However, this thing is quite rare, and the Black Emperor Sect only has a few.

"As expected, with a Dou Zong in charge, this is the first thing to be compared to the raging beast fire."

Lin Feng gazed at the precious black mirror stones and murmured to himself.

Then, he realized that his Black Basalt Shield was no longer keeping up with his pace.

He secretly made up his mind that if he had the chance, he would get a few pieces of black mirror stone to make a shield.

That way, if I encounter a crisis next time, I'll be safer when I use the "Beast Fire" technique.

Oh, and beast fire too. The only two fifth-tier beast fires we had before were destroyed, so we need to buy some as backups.

If possible, it would be best to buy some Tier 6 items as well.

Uh, it seems he can't use that level of beast fire yet.

If a forced collision were to occur, the repulsive force would likely cause the sixth-order being to be knocked down; that would probably be him.

Shaking off the random thoughts in his mind, Lin Feng continued to queue up.
After queuing for nearly an hour, Lin Feng paid an entrance fee and was able to enter the city smoothly.

Looking at the wide street and the crowds of people in front of him, Lin Feng inquired about the location of Qianyaofang.

He wanted to try his luck there and see if there were any medicinal herbs he needed.

Walking down the street, Lin Feng looked at the bustling crowd in front of him and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Is Black Royal City always this lively?

After strolling around for a while and turning down two streets, Lin Feng's steps gradually came to a stop.

The outline of the black market appeared faintly in Lin Yin City.

The people here generally start at the level of Great Battle Master.

Those below this level are rarely seen, except for a few young people.

However, the guards surrounding these young people are all at least at the Dou Ling level, so they are not afraid of being robbed.

After walking for several hours, a huge city came into view at the edge of the horizon.

As they approached, they came upon the enormous attic pharmacy located in the big city.

Naturally, he would be at the same level of battle qi as those who were lagging behind, but because he had previously taken some medicine...

My gaze finally settled on the city gate, on the large character above the back of the line of people entering the city.

Looking at the crowded entrance, I took a deep breath and squeezed my way in.

Upon entering Qianyaofang, the noisy shouts and curses suddenly subsided considerably.

A rich medicinal aroma, a blend of countless herbs, wafted over.

The aroma of the medicine was so strong that it almost made Lin Feng sneeze violently.

Lin Feng rubbed his nose and looked around.

In this incredibly spacious hall, numerous transparent counters were set up.

Inside that counter, the neatly arranged items undoubtedly indicated that the number of people in the pill section was much larger.

After all, those in the Black Corner Region are constantly wielding knives.

Among them, the two elders, Jin and Yin, were at the peak of the Douhuang realm.

Han Feng, though between the dust and the scroll, possessed immense soul power.

The great empire was embroiled in a series of wars, coupled with large-scale massacres.

The death toll must be at least several hundred thousand, so how could there only be a mere tens of thousands of souls?

"You're lucky, kid. You've gained tens of thousands of souls this time."

The Heavenly Fire Venerable was not beside Lin Feng, and he spoke with a hint of envy about the soul bags inside.

The souls he refined back then were all collected by him personally.

Lin Feng said with a somewhat bitter expression, "Now that I've killed one person..."

However, thinking about the benefits of absorbing that protector, his tone became even more joyful.

"for you."

Without hesitation, Lin Feng directly split off the invisible flames and flung them forward.

"Hehe, I'll return it to you in a few days."

After speaking, Venerable Heavenly Fire manipulated the scroll, and Lin Feng looked extremely surprised.

Then, he remembered that in the original work, Han Feng seemed to have also used this low-level Earth-rank sonic fighting technique.

Based on this, it seems that in the original story, Han Feng devoured Xuan.

With the help of advanced cultivation techniques, he advanced to the Dou Zong level.

Looking at the increasingly faint and illusory old man, Lin Luoxin said, "Refine that protector."

“That’s right,” Feng laughed, “a few days ago, in order to capture that man, I was in danger.” He added, “Old Yao, if you don’t come out and add something, I’ll be in real trouble.”

After the soul of the guardian is restored, one can also use the fighting techniques known to the guardian Xuan.

Suddenly, he recalled the Soul Palace Protectors from the original story.

I can only give half the payment; I will have someone deliver it before next month.
He quickly changed to an extremely friendly expression and smiled.

There was no trace of the frenzied state he had displayed when he snatched the cultivation technique.

At the same time, they noticed how much Han Feng cared.

He became even more certain that the scroll was indeed a high-level Earth-rank cultivation technique!

Thinking of this, the group was somewhat taken aback and did not pursue the matter further.

After all, he couldn't do anything to the four Dou Huangs on the other side by himself, so there was no point in continuing.

"Since this operation has failed, as agreed, we, your families, will take our leave now."

After saying that, Han Feng's azure wings trembled slightly, and he flew rapidly towards Maple City.

His current mood is extremely complex, a mixture of joy and sorrow.

To his delight, he finally obtained the first half of the Burning Manual, which he had been coveting for decades.

The worry is that he failed to kill that old man this time, leaving behind a huge hidden danger.

However, now that he has obtained the complete Burning Technique, he naturally wants to quickly improve his own cultivation method.

Eliminate the problem of this strange fire occasionally erupting due to incomplete absorption.

Seeing Han Feng leave, the remaining four people were unwilling, but they did not dare to go forward to snatch the cultivation technique.

After all, Han Feng's "Funeral of the Peak Douhuang Level" and Protector Xuan's "Ten Thousand Souls Devouring Array" and "Soul Cry".

Using these trump cards requires consuming a large amount of soul.

But in terms of sheer power, they are all quite impressive.

They already possess the ability to kill powerful individuals at the Dou Zong level, even those of lower star levels.

If the opponent doesn't possess rare and precious materials that can restrain the soul, escape will be even more difficult.

If he had the time, he could collect some of these fighting techniques for his own use.
"If I hadn't reminded Venerable Tianhuo to end the battle quickly, there would have been another great war."

After a long pause, Lin Feng thought of the previous battle and murmured with a sense of relief.

He then stored this low-level Earth-rank sonic combat technique, named "Soul Cry," into his Nether Sea Storage Ring.

"Huh, is this the secret technique that Protector Wu used in the original story to help the Yunlan Sect members break through their limits?"

Picking up another scroll, Lin Feng thought, "These secret techniques... it seems these things are standard equipment for Earth-level Protectors."

After a while, Lin Feng, who had finished reading the secret technique, closed the scroll and chuckled softly. He remembered the levels of the Soul Palace's protectors: low-level Dou Zong were at the Human level, mid-level at the Earth level, and high-level at the Heaven level.

This Protector Kong's strength is comparable to that of Mo Tianxing and Elder Yingshan; he is also at the level of a four-star Dou Zong.

From this perspective, he is also a Di-level Dharma Protector named Dou Huang.

It's an excellent choice to break through to a higher level, but let the people under your command use it.

Not only can it greatly enhance the strength of its subordinates, but it can also control such secret techniques.

However, the fact that this secret technique requires the soul as nourishment makes Lin Feng feel a little pained.
"Could these wings of a seventh-tier flying magical beast be the reward that Protector Kong is preparing for Yan Luotian?"

As he finished tidying up, Lin Feng stared at the pair of giant wings, each over six meters long, feeling somewhat numb with joy.

The gains from this battle in the Tagor Desert far exceeded his expectations.

In this situation, after seeing that Han Feng had taken the item.

Even the two strongest among them, the Gold and Silver Elders, were not able to...
"I didn't expect that old fox Yao Chen to be so bold. The scroll he just threw away must be the Burning Technique."

Seeing the group disappear, Lin Feng flew out from the jungle several miles away from the battlefield, his expression somewhat surprised.

After resolving the auction matter, Du Sha killed Han Feng, a classic case of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

At that time, they will not only obtain the complete Burning Manual but also the family property of both parties.

Furthermore, one can obtain the Sea Heart Flame and the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, two extraordinary flames ranked fifteenth and eleventh respectively.

Moreover, outsiders would only think it was an injury to Lu Xiao, a powerful Dou Zong.

After being strengthened by these things, he was even able to kill low-level Dou Zong with relative ease.

After his initial joy, Lin Feng realized that Venerable Heavenly Fire still needed some time to refine the protector.

He then took out the sonic combat technique called "Soul Chant" and planned to cultivate it to replace his previous Xuan-rank sonic combat technique.

After all, the difference between the Profound Rank and the Earth Rank is self-evident.

All the spoils from the past few days belong to me, including the four elders of the snake-people who acted so rudely just now.

Medusa then told them that she was pregnant and asked them to bring her the prescription.

"what?!"

Medusa, you...already have a child?

Upon hearing this news, the four elders were all somewhat bewildered.

They had already guessed that the two people's belongings were unusual, but they never expected that the two of them had developed to this point.

"Um
Suddenly, another stream of energy erupted from between Han Feng's eyebrows, causing his body to pause uncontrollably.

Han Feng seized this opportunity and quickly put the scroll away.

If someone tries to take what you desire most, it's undoubtedly a mistake to touch it.

He grabbed it and quickly put it into his storage ring to prevent the others from having any further strange thoughts.

"Gentlemen, we made an agreement beforehand that this human body might be a bit against the rules."

Looking at the group with a cold gaze, Han Feng's tone carried a hint of killing intent.

This second half of the Burning Technique was something he hadn't seen in decades, and now he had reached his forbidden zone.

"Hehe, we were just worried that the cultivation technique would be stolen by someone else, so we wanted to keep it safe for the Medicine Emperor for a while."

Having lived in the Black Corner Region for so many years, they naturally wouldn't care about principles.

No one would suspect that Han Feng, who was killed at that time, was a five-star Dou Wang.

In this way, he can not only get what he wants, but also gain attention, and then take the opportunity to escape.

Whether this move surprised Han Feng or not, he didn't know.

But he knew that his plan had fallen through.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel extremely disappointed.

If he could obtain the Burning Flame, and combine it with his own Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, his future achievements would at least be at the Saint level.

Unfortunately, things had already come to this point, and there was nothing he could do to change it. He could only think of other ways to obtain the Burning Technique and the Strange Fire.

"However, the fact that Yuan Yi's 'Hidden Soul' technique remained undiscovered here is largely thanks to it."

Looking at the thin layer of special concealed fighting aura on his body, Lin Feng sighed.

When he sorted through Yuan Yi's storage ring, he not only found Yuan Yi's signature skill, a low-level Earth-rank combat skill: Shadow Demon Hand.

They also discovered a low-level Earth-rank concealment technique, Soul Concealment, inside.

Of course, there's also the dark attribute earth-rank cultivation technique that Yuan Yi is practicing.

However, what interested him most was the "Hidden Soul" secret technique.

Although this thing cannot enhance any combat power, it can conceal the user's aura, making it difficult for others to detect.

He thought that the sudden onset of heart inflammation would be much smaller eight months later.

This was practically tailor-made for his subsequent actions.
This technique, as expected of a low-level Earth-rank concealment technique, is still hidden.

"An auction is being held, and the Yin-Yang Profound Dragon Pill is still on me; I can't miss it."

Lin Feng silently recited a thought to himself, then his wings flashed slightly, and his figure disappeared from the spot.

On the other side, Xiao Yan and his group arrived at Tianxuan City and found themselves in a secluded spot.

"Go back and heal your injuries for now. If you don't have any on you, you can try again," Chen Ling said.

For those who lick blood from the mouth, a pill that bursts forth in times of crisis.

Compared to those medicinal herbs that cannot be swallowed directly, it is undoubtedly much more precious.

"Sigh, having failed to find that rare and precious herb that can extend lifespan, should I take the Life-Giving Pill or not?"

As Lin Feng walked out of the Thousand Medicine Shop, a dilemma began to form in his mind once again.

"Oh right, I remember there's an auction house in Black Royal City. Let's try our luck there."

Thinking of this, Lin Feng searched for a moment and grabbed a passerby whose level was lower than his.

After a friendly conversation, we were given the location of the auction house.

After walking for a while, Lin Feng finally saw the city center before him, a building that occupied an extremely large area.

As he approached the auction hall, he exclaimed, "Wow, what luck!"

However, he came here to find medicinal herbs, so he naturally headed towards the medicinal herb area.

"Guest, my name is Xiaoyu. What kind of medicinal herbs do you need? I can get them for you."

Most of the people who come to the medicinal herb area are alchemists.

The healing pills for my arm will be available after I recover my soul power.

A kind of fusion pill, which may allow life to be restored frequently.

The maid didn't dare to be negligent and quickly stepped forward to inquire.

"Do you have Soul-Melting Wood, Soul-Nourishing Flower, and..."

Upon seeing these high-grade medicinal herbs, the maid pondered for a moment before speaking.

Upon hearing that there were no herbs that could extend lifespan, Lin Feng asked curiously, "How many portions are there?"

"Two servings."

"I want it all."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng decided to buy them all.

Seeing this, the maid reminded him, "Guest, two portions will cost 1.8 million gold coins."

"Bring your things over." Some of them have purple-gold cards.

Soon after, the maid returned and handed the gold coins back to Lin Feng.

Since Han Feng and his group did not pursue them, they landed in the city.

"Alright, we've just arrived, and the auction is starting in two months." (End of Chapter)
