Refining medicine can't save Doupo!

Chapter 670 The Super Sea Heart Flame Erupts! The Holy Soul Hall Takes Sides!

"Huh, after four months, you've already reached the second-star Dou Zun level???" In a mysterious sea area, countless mountains of flesh emerged from the water. It was the first time Jiang Lin had ever seen so many high-level whale clan experts gathered together. On the head of the largest behemoth whale, which was hundreds of meters above the water, Lan Hong and the others stood.

The colossal whale beneath Lan Hong's feet is the patriarch of the Ancient Sea Whale Clan, a peak eighth-tier sea beast. Its enormous size and terrifying defensive and regenerative abilities allow it to transcend a minor realm and fight against a half-saint without being at a disadvantage! Even a one-star Dou Sheng would find it extremely difficult to completely kill this terrifying sea beast!

However, at this moment, this giant of the sea, as well as the other giants around it, were all quietly prostrating themselves at the feet of the burly, dark purple-skinned man in front of them. No matter how powerful or proud the whale clan warriors were, they could only lower their proud heads and offer their highest respect to that man.

"As expected of a chosen one, this cultivation speed is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people." Yuan Shao also looked at Jiang Lin and the others flying towards them in the air. After sensing Jiang Lin's aura for a moment, he couldn't help but sigh.

At this moment, after spending nearly a year recuperating in the Ancient Sea and absorbing some mysterious, unrevealed ancient inheritances of the Ancient Sea Whale Clan, Yuanhu has only recovered to the peak strength of a Dou Zun.

Some might think that recovering from the peak of Dou Zong to the peak of Dou Zun in just one year is already incredibly terrifying.

However, you have to consider that Yuan Huo's previous realm was that of a peak Dou Sheng! According to the energy volume of a peak Dou Sheng, even a peak Dou Zun would be nothing more than a drop in the ocean!
This is the result after Yuanhu consumed many of the ancient heritages of the Ancient Sea Whale Clan!

"Senior, you've recovered quite well too, haven't you?" Jiang Lin glanced curiously at the whale pod that looked like mountains floating on the water below, then landed next to Yuan Shao and the others.

“Alas, I am recovering, while you are breaking through, it’s not the same.” Yuan Mao shook his head. Although the Ancient Sea Secret Realm had worn down a lot of his power, it was not completely worn down. At this moment, the blood of the evil god in Yuan Mao’s body can still restore him to the level of a four-star Dou Sheng. Then, he will have to start cultivating again on his own.

Jiang Lin nodded, first greeting Lan Hong, Yao Chen, and the others, then asking Yuan Shao, "I wonder how much strength you can currently unleash, senior?"

After pondering for a moment, Yuan Shao raised his hand to look at the dark purple battle qi flowing between his fingers before speaking: "My current true realm is the peak of the eighth rank, which is the peak of the Dou Zun. In the ocean environment, under normal circumstances, defeating a one-star Dou Sheng is not a problem. In case of unexpected circumstances, under a temporary burst of power, I can fight against enemies below the four-star Dou Sheng level."

Yuan Mao spoke rather modestly. In his temporary outburst, few Dou Sheng below the four-star level could defeat him. Only those stronger than four-star Dou Sheng could overwhelm him with sheer numerical superiority, rendering Yuan Mao's peak Dou Sheng combat skills and Dou Technique insights utterly powerless in the face of such overwhelming power.
"Where is Senior Lan Hong?" Jiang Lin looked at Lan Hong next to Yuan Shao. He wondered what Lan Hong had eaten recently, as there was still a trace of blood on him. This guy's cultivation level had also recovered to the peak of Dou Zun.

"As for me, I'm at most a two- or three-star Dou Sheng in terms of combat power. But I have a special attack bonus against the Dragon Clan." Lan Hong chuckled, not feeling ashamed at all about her 'internal war god' behavior.

Lan Hong's recovery speed was no slower than Yuan Mao's; in fact, in less than half a year, Lan Hong caught up with Yuan Mao's recovery speed.

However, Jiang Lin didn't bother to ask how Lan Hong recovered. It was pointless now; of the three ancient sea races, only the whale race and the merman race remained.
As for the shark clan?

It entered the stomachs of Yuanshou and Lanhong.
As top-tier magical beasts, both Yuanlu and Lanhong possess 'devouring' techniques, allowing them to quickly restore their strength by devouring other powerful creatures!
At first, Yuan Shao had no intention of taking action against the Shark Clan, until Lan Hong arrived. After confirming that the Shark Clan couldn't escape, Yuan Shao joined forces with Lan Hong to annihilate the Shark Clan.

Because of the rapid pace of their annihilation, few sea creatures in the ancient sea know about this matter now, and even those who do know dare not speak out.
"Yes, both of you are very capable." Jiang Lin nodded, then glanced at Yao Chen and Han Feng.

It's unclear whether Yao Chen suffered some kind of shock, but he was always being led around by Han Feng like a balloon, and Han Feng was becoming more and more obedient. It seemed that he had seen a lot of big scenes with Lan Hong and others, and the ghost was becoming more and more taciturn, and he was becoming more and more dedicated to cultivating Yao Chen's "Ghost Spirit Technique".

"Huh?" Jiang Lin sensed Han Feng's ghost cultivation level slightly, and then his expression froze.

"Six-star Ghost Master?" Jiang Lin clearly remembered that Han Feng's realm after being introduced into the Ghost Path by Yao Chen was still Ghost Emperor. Originally, Han Feng, who was a one-star Dou Zong, would have lost some of his realm when entering the Ghost Path. However, because Han Feng's soul was strong, especially after being tempered by the backlash of the strange fire, his soul's resilience was astonishing. In the end, he directly became a nine-star Ghost Emperor when he entered the Ghost Path.

And now... Jiang Lin counted the time on his fingers, it seems like it's been less than four months, right? This brat, he advanced from a nine-star Ghost Emperor to a six-star Ghost Emperor?! You're the one who's cheating!

Looking at Yao Chen again, Jiang Lin used his Chaotic Spirit Eyes to examine Yao Chen, and Yao Chen's cultivation level was immediately clear!
Yao Chen, a one-star Ghost Lord!
Four months ago, Yao Chen was still a member of the Nine Star Ghost Sect, right?

Seemingly noticing the doubt in Jiang Lin's eyes, Yao Chen, whose face was somewhat dark, coughed and then explained, "Ghost cultivators have borrowed a lot of Pei Xuan's techniques. Devouring souls for cultivation is very common. When they wiped out the Shark Clan, I also gained some benefits."

Yao Chen didn't introduce Han Feng, but Lan Hong suddenly laughed and said, "If you ask me, it's Yao Chen's precious disciple who has high talent. I've also seen that ghost cultivation technique, and it's quite good. Han Feng is very talented in cultivating this technique, and his cultivation speed is much faster than Yao Chen's. I estimate that in a few years, this disciple should be able to surpass his master."

When Lan Hong mentioned surpassing Yao Chen, Han Feng, who was suspended in mid-air like a balloon and held in Yao Chen's hand, suddenly had a glint of light flash in his originally silent and deep eyes.

Even without using your brain, even if you used your toes, you would know that Han Feng must be thinking right now that if he were stronger than Yao Chen, he would definitely drag Yao Chen around like a soul balloon!

"...cough cough" Yao Chen's face turned even darker.

Xiao Yan, who had come with Jiang Lin, couldn't help but chuckle, "I never imagined that Senior Brother was the true successor to our teacher!"

"You talk too much!" Yao Chen glared at Xiao Yan with displeasure, then looked at the taciturn but eager-looking Han Feng. Yao Chen's lips twitched: "Han Feng's soul is quite resilient due to the numerous backlashes from the strange fire he has experienced before, and he has some talent for cultivating the Ghost Spirit Technique."

Yao Chen himself hadn't expected that Han Feng's half-step Burning Technique would have such an effect.

Good heavens, half of the Burning Technique is actually laying the foundation for Han Feng's future cultivation of the Ghost Spirit Technique?!

Yao Chen is quite anxious right now. It's one thing for Xiao Yan, that overpowered player, to surpass him, but now this little brat Han Feng is also going to surpass him? And on the path he himself forged?!
Is there any justice in this world?
"Perhaps... this is fate." After hearing the whole story, Jiang Lin pondered for a moment, and finally couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

A book called "Burning Technique" allowed Yao Chen to discover Xiao Yan, a genius of strange fire.

A Ghostly Spirit Technique led Yao Chen to discover Han Feng, a young genius in ghost cultivation.
Yao Chen: "." What could he do? He was desperate too, you know?
That bastard Han Feng has half of the Burning Technique as his foundation, how can Yao Chen compare!

Yao Chen was almost moved to tears by his own 'good intentions'! Meanwhile, Han Feng's attitude towards Yao Chen was particularly complex—hatred? Actually, there wasn't much hatred. Ever since Yao Chen truly passed on his ghost cultivation mantle to Han Feng, Han Feng no longer hated Yao Chen; all he felt was resentment and anger. His perfectly good physical body, destroyed just like that? And then he was supposed to cultivate this Ghost Spirit Technique that no ghost would practice? ???

then
Han Feng: It smells so good!
After chatting for a while, Jiang Lin got down to business.

“Senior, now that everyone is ready, we need to deal with the risks from the Merfolk before heading to Dragon Island,” Jiang Lin said to the others.

"To annihilate them?" Lan Hong asked.

Upon hearing this, Kelly, a merman who was not far behind Yuan Mao, suddenly looked flustered and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Yuan Ming, a whale, who was beside her.

Then, Kelly, a merfolk, saw Yuanlu suddenly speak in the distance: "The merfolk and the sea races are destined to be together; they are not suitable for annihilation."

"Not annihilation, but you need to be able to suppress the entire situation." Jiang Lin quickly shook his head. The people on the Merfolk's side were quite sensible and had never done anything wrong. Jiang Lin couldn't possibly repay kindness with enmity and wipe them out.

"I need to sever the space teleportation array of the Deep Sea Soul Palace," Jiang Lin explained his plan in detail. Yuan Shao and the others pondered for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement.

Upon hearing this, Kelly, a merfolk in the distance, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She then volunteered, "I'm familiar with the defensive layout of the Deep Sea City. I can lead you past the guards and directly into the Merfolk Temple."

"Yes, that's fine." Jiang Lin nodded in satisfaction. With the help of Kelly from the Mermaid Clan, they could enter the Deep Sea Soul Palace without anyone noticing and seal it off before anyone could react.

Without Kelly's help, if they made a mistake and excited the Deep Sea Soul Palace, causing them to send intelligence to the Dou Qi Continent and attract the Soul Clan's experts, the situation would be difficult to manage.

"Then let's set off." Soon, Jiang Lin and the others bid farewell to the Whale Clan and, with Yuan Shao, Yuan Ming, Kelly, Lan Hong, Yao Chen, Han Feng, Xiao Yan, and Zi Yan, flew quickly towards the Deep Sea City where the Merfolk were located.

Since most of this large group of people were Dou Zun, they traveled at an extremely fast speed.

In less than a week, the group approached the waters of the Merfolk.

"Everyone, follow me for the rest of the journey." As they approached the Merfolk's territory, Merfolk Kelly volunteered to lead the way, and the others did not refuse.

Kelly of the Merfolk had no reason to scheme against them because, regardless of whether the Soul Clan intervened or not, Yuan Shao and the others present had the ability to annihilate the Merfolk.

So Kelly only had two choices: the merfolk live, or the merfolk perish. Even a fool would know which to choose.

Thus, led by the Merfolk Kelly, Jiang Lin and the others unsurprisingly found themselves in the heart of the Merfolk territory, near the Deep Sea City. Then, aided by the faint glow of the Super Sea Heart Flame, Kelly led the group towards the Deep Sea Soul Palace.

"Hey, what are you staring at? Haven't you ever seen such a huge sea flame before? Let's go." A small incident occurred along the way: Han Feng stared at the super blue sun in the deep sea 'sky' and was instantly stunned. It was only by Yao Chen pulling him away by his soul rope.

"What's the rush? This is such a huge Sea Heart Flame, have you ever seen it before, old man?" Han Feng said with dissatisfaction.

"Hey, sorry, I actually have seen him before." Yao Chen chuckled.

"How come you've seen me before?" Han Feng asked incredulously.

"I saw it when I came last time," Yao Chen snorted.

Han Feng: "." Okay, okay, you've gotten all proud of yourself, huh?
but
hum!
Perhaps the Sea Heart Flame within Han Feng's body triggered some special mechanism of that Super Sea Heart Flame, causing that Super Deep Sea Sun to erupt violently!
In the Dou Qi Continent, Western Regions, Holy Soul Hall, the teleportation hub array suddenly began to flicker inexplicably.
"Report!!! Venerable One! The teleportation array is showing abnormal spatial fluctuations, as if it is transmitting some kind of information!" Venerable Qinghai, who was in seclusion cultivating and oblivious to the outside world, was suddenly awakened by his subordinate.

"Hmm, what information?" Venerable Qinghai straightened his clothes and then appeared in the main hall of the Holy Soul Palace in an instant, looking at his subordinates who were reporting below.

"Your Excellency, Lord Heron is translating." Before the subordinate could finish speaking, Heron, dressed in a magnificent white-gold holy robe, appeared outside the hall with a complicated and strange expression, and then quickly approached.

"..." Seeing that Protector Lu looked like he wanted to say something but couldn't, Venerable Qinghai glanced around and gently waved his hand: "The rest of you may step back."

"Yes, sir!" The other members of the Holy Soul Hall had no objections and quickly ran off, afraid that if they were even a step too slow, they would hear something that could cost them their heads. The Holy Soul Hall had such a bright future, and they didn't want to lose their lives so easily.

"Now that everyone's gone, speak. What information did you translate?" Venerable Qinghai looked down at Protector Heron, his gaze calm yet profound.

"..." Protector Lu hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward a few paces before whispering, "Venerable One, there's something unusual happening at the Ancient Sea Soul Palace."

"..." Venerable Qinghai didn't speak, but quickly processed the information in his mind. A Dou Zun powerhouse's thoughts flashed by in an instant, and then Venerable Qinghai looked down at Protector Lu, his gaze deep and unfathomable:

"Between the Western Regions and the Central Plains, which would you prefer?"
