Chapter 140 I am an undercover agent
A young man arrived at the Dan Tower; his alchemy skills were so advanced that they were incomprehensible to most.

As a sacred place for alchemists on the continent, news of what happened here spread throughout the Central Plains in no time.

Qin Sheng's alchemy skills, which he demonstrated in public, were widely circulated and his title as the number one alchemist was unshakeable.

His self-introduction brought the Yunlan Sect of the Northwest Continent into the view of countless people.

The fact that the Yunlan Sect was able to cultivate such a young eighth-grade nine-color alchemist means that it must be an incredibly powerful ancient hidden sect!
If the younger generation is this powerful, then the senior members of the sect must be Dou Sheng (Battle Saints)!
No, perhaps a Dou Di was born there!
The Soul Palace and the Pill Tower are mortal enemies, so naturally they are very concerned about all of this.

"Jie Jie Jie."

"This Qin Sheng is even more powerful than Yao Chen back then. The taste of such a person's soul must be incredibly wonderful."

"The Pill Tower has become so famous this time, which is really unsettling. Let's see if we can find an opportunity to get rid of this Qin Sheng. We missed the chance to seize the soul of the previous number one alchemist on the continent, so we must do it this time!"

"He probably won't give us a chance easily. Let's see if he has any weaknesses like Yao Chen."

"Wait, Qin Sheng of Yunlan Sect, I feel like I've heard that name before... Isn't he one of ours?"

When they verified Qin Sheng's true identity—that he was the Grand Elder of the Yunlan Sect, a force recently supported by the Soul Hall—they were all stunned.

The powerful figure who was riding high in the enemy's faction turned out to be our puppet?
Our people have infiltrated Danta again, and they're almost there to become the "boss"?

Soul Clan's number one alchemist, Battle Saint Soul Void Child, infiltrated the Pill Tower back then, became an apprentice of the former tower master of the Little Pill Tower, learned alchemy, and laid the foundation for his own alchemy skills.

Later, when Hun Xuzi's identity was exposed, his master, mindful of the bond between master and disciple, spared the disciple.

However, Hun Xuzi turned around and joined forces with the experts of the Soul Clan to kill his teacher, thus forging a life-and-death feud between the Soul Palace and the Pill Tower.

Killing one's master is also a tradition of the Soul Clan, and Han Feng has mastered it thoroughly.

Qin Sheng now...

From the perspective of the Soul Palace, this moment is just like that moment.

"The Grand Elder of the Yunlan Sect has become the number one alchemist on the continent, and it seems that he is highly regarded by Old Monster Lin. It sounds a bit strange, but when you think about it carefully, it is really a great thing!"

"Hehehe, well done. Perhaps we can repeat what happened to Lord Hunxuzi back then in the Pill Tower."

"Once Qin Sheng holds a high position in the Pill Tower, won't we be able to harvest the souls of those alchemists at will?"

"Notify the Yunlan Sect that Qin Sheng must conceal his identity and try to gain as much power as possible within the Pill Tower, so that he can cooperate with our actions in the future."

"Increase support for the Yunlan Sect, and secretly use various resources to completely control this sect and hold Qin Sheng hostage."

The Soul Palace's higher-ups quickly devised a new plan and were extremely pleased.

They even hoped that Qin Sheng could take up one of the three giants of the Pill Tower, or even enter the Lesser Pill Tower.

With such an inside accomplice, why worry that our grand plan for a thousand years will not succeed?

It's a pity that Qin Sheng's surname isn't Yao, otherwise it would have been even better if he could have infiltrated the Yao clan.

"Jie Jie Jie Jie..."

The high-ranking members of the Soul Hall exchanged glances, and laughter filled the entire hall.

Danta, what do you have to fight us with!
……

"Let me infiltrate the Pill Tower and climb as high as I can? I can ask for help with anything I need along the way, and the Soul Hall will assist me?"

"The Lord of the Soul Hall personally praised me, saying I am a pillar of the Soul Hall?"

Seeing the instructions from the Soul Palace, Qin Sheng couldn't hold back any longer. After thinking it over, he could only say something.

"I say the Palace Master's opinion is brilliant; I guarantee the mission will be accomplished!"

Then Qin Sheng turned to Lin Laoguai and said:

"Actually, I am a member of the Soul Palace."

Old Monster Lin: "???"

"What do you mean?"

Old Monster Lin thought he might be hallucinating. What did you mean, "You're from the Soul Palace"?

"The Yunlan Sect is a force supported by the Soul Hall. Not long ago, the Soul Hall contacted me and told me to lie low in the Pill Tower."

Old Monster Lin narrowed his eyes. "You're from the Soul Hall. You're supposed to infiltrate the Pill Tower. Now you've told me your mission?"

This world is so surreal. When did undercover agents become so open and brazen?
"Actually, I'm not a member of the Soul Hall either," Qin Sheng said.

Old Monster Lin: "...Whose side are you on?"

"I am the Grand Elder of the Yunlan Sect."

Qin Sheng took out a soul jade pendant, which was given to him by Yao Chen. He was to give the pendant to the three giants of the Pill Tower or Venerable Feng of the Starfall Pavilion when he came to Zhongzhou.

These are all people who can be absolutely trusted.

It contains Yao Chen's soul power and will explain everything to them, while also asking them to take care of Qin Sheng.

The old master not only mastered the Explosive Burning Technique, but also took great care of his juniors.

Old Man Lin took the jade pendant and received the information inside. He could easily determine whether Yao Chen was real or fake, dead or alive.

A moment later, Lin Laoguai's expression became complicated.

"So Yao Chen was harmed by Han Feng in collusion with the Soul Hall..."

This is remarkably similar to the fate of the former master of the Little Pill Tower.

"So, the Yunlan Sect was forced to feign allegiance to the Soul Palace, but the Soul Palace believed they had truly taken control of you and entrusted you with important responsibilities?"

"That's about it." Qin Sheng nodded.

"With my soul power, none of the Soul Palace's underhanded tactics can work."

Old Monster Lin was silent for a moment, then asked, "So, what are you going to do about the undercover mission the Soul Palace gave you?"

"Resolutely implement and carry out the plan."

Qin Sheng smiled and said, "In this process, I will need Elder Lin's cooperation."

"Given my current situation, the Soul Palace will definitely value me. Maintaining this relationship will also benefit the Pill Tower."

"At least if there are any conspiracies or schemes against Danta, you will know immediately."

Old Man Lin sorted things out in his mind; the current situation was...

The Soul Hall believed Qin Sheng was their spy, but in reality, Qin Sheng was the one who infiltrated the Soul Hall, yet he genuinely wanted to infiltrate the Pill Tower...

After careful consideration, Lin Laoguai concluded that turning the tables on Lin Laoguai was the better option.

The hatred between the Pill Tower and the Soul Palace runs too deep; such an opportunity is not to be missed.

Old Man Lin laughed, a very happy laugh, "Those rats in the shadows have finally met their match."

Soul Palace, what do you have to fight us with!
"You can go and retrieve the Three Thousand Burning Flames anytime," said Old Monster Lin.

This fire ranks ninth on the list of strange fires. It is a strange fire born from outer space. After being subdued, cultivators can obtain the Three Thousand Star Body, also known as the Undying Body.

Once injured, it can repair or even strengthen its physical body by absorbing the power of the stars. It probably contains the profound laws of fire and stars, which is considered quite advanced.

In the Dou Qi Continent, the higher the ranking of a strange fire, the more profound its laws and mysteries. Stars, life, purification, devouring…

These are all valuable paths that can provide great inspiration.

The Three Thousand Burning Flames in the Pill Tower are terrifying; most Dou Zun (Battle Venerables) have no way to deal with them.

But for Qin Sheng, this was simply wonderful.

The stronger the strange fire, the better.

But plans can't keep up with changes. Aoyama suddenly received a message from Donglong Island, which made his expression change drastically.

“Those three traitors have appeared!” he said to Qin Sheng.

"The Three Dragon Kings?"

Qin Sheng asked in confusion, "Zi Yan's information is kept absolutely secret. Only the three of you Dou Sheng and Elder Zhu Li know about it. There's no reason for the three Dragon Kings to come to Donglong Island at this time, is there?"

In the original storyline, Zi Yan's Dragon Emperor bloodline was exposed, and the three Dragon Kings immediately launched a great war, wanting to devour Zi Yan and achieve their own power.

Qingshan: "They learned that we have a ninth-grade alchemist, and they were afraid that Donglong Island's strength would increase as a result, so they came to us."

The strongest being on the Four Dragon Islands is currently a three-star Battle Saint, and a ninth-grade Treasure Pill Grandmaster is absolutely capable of changing the landscape.

Qin Sheng: "...So I'm the one who caused this trouble?"

I've become Ye Fan?
"It's not your fault. Those three traitors deserve to die!" Qingshan was furious but also powerless.

The three Dragon Kings were all three-star Dou Sheng, and he was no match for them.

Donglong Island has just welcomed back the Dragon Emperor, and the revival of the Ancient Dragon of the Void is in sight. Is everything about to be destroyed?
"Let's go back to Dragon Island first," Qin Sheng said.
"I happen to be short one Dou Sheng Dragon Core. I can use the magic cores of the three Dragon Kings to refine the pill. You shouldn't mind, right?"

“They are not worthy to be kings,” Qingshan blurted out, then realized his mistake and asked nervously:
"Do you have a way to deal with those three traitors? Otherwise, you should take the Dragon Emperor and leave first. The entire Donglong Island will risk their lives to buy you time."

Those who remain steadfast in upholding the Dragon Emperor's orthodoxy at this time are absolutely loyal and are not hesitant to risk their lives to give Zi Yan a chance.

In the Dou Qi Continent, the soul power of a Great Perfection of the Heaven Realm is only comparable to that of a Two-Star Dou Sheng. As for the soul power of the Emperor Realm, which is above that, it is just a legend for most Dou Sheng, and it is uncertain whether it exists.

Therefore, Qingshan dared not believe that Qin Sheng could defeat the three Dragon Kings; he was already thankful to have escaped with his life.

"What are you talking about? I'm not the kind of person who would betray a friend. Although I'm just an alchemist, I'm used to dealing with the trouble I cause myself."

Qin Sheng grabbed the dragon-shaped Three Thousand Burning Flames, sealed it within his body, and then returned to East Dragon Island with Qingshan.

The three Dragon Kings of the North, South, and West, along with numerous experts, surrounded East Dragon Island. Upon seeing the two return, the North Dragon King looked at Qin Sheng.

"Are you Grandmaster Qin Sheng?"

"Yes, it's me."

The Northern Dragon King smiled and said, "I am the Dragon King of the Ancient Dragon Clan of the Void, representing the orthodoxy of the ancient dragons. If Grandmaster Qin agrees, my Northern Dragon Island is willing to make offerings to you."

"Donglong Island is weak and its inhabitants are rebels from the ancient dragons. Master Qin, don't be fooled by them."

In addition, the West and South Dragon Kings also spoke up, trying to win over Qin Sheng.

They also wanted a ninth-grade alchemist; a ninth-grade pill would be enough to support them to go further and unify the four Dragon Islands.

Qin Sheng shook his head, "I am inseparable from Donglong Island, there's no need to say anything more about it."

The three Dragon Kings' eyes turned cold. Since they were inseparable from Donglong Island, did that mean they were determined to oppose them?

"Are you from the Medicine Clan?" the Northern Dragon King asked.

"No, I just come from a small sect on the Dou Qi Continent. I happened to obtain the inheritance of an eighth-grade alchemist who had already died, and then I became self-taught and got to where I am today."

"Without powerful teachers or strong clansmen, Donglong Island is my home."

Qin Sheng has two good qualities: he is honest and doesn't talk much.

The Northern Dragon King's expression turned completely cold. A ninth-grade alchemist was indeed someone to be wary of, but if he had no background and was clearly an enemy...

The Ancient Dragon Clan of the Void is not something to be afraid of.

"I am benevolent and do not enjoy killing."

The Northern Dragon King said, "Your Excellency, please come back to Northern Dragon Island with me. There you will have many opportunities to refine medicine."

"You really want me to concoct medicine for you? That's not impossible. I have a plan that satisfies both sides," Qin Sheng said.
"Alright then, the three of you will stay here. I will turn you into puppets to protect me while I'm refining medicine."

"In this way, you won't miss any of my medicine-making sessions, which can be considered as fulfilling your wishes."

Qin Sheng hadn't used the Heavenly Demon Puppet Technique he obtained from the Demon Flame Valley in the Black Corner Region yet, so this was a good opportunity to test it out.

Furthermore, the Heavenly Demon Puppet can absorb pill lightning, making it a perfect match for alchemists.

"furious!"

The Southern Dragon King sneered, "A mere Dou Zun dares to spout such nonsense? Come back with me!"

He made the first move, attempting to kidnap Qin Sheng, and the other two Dragon Kings followed suit.

I am determined to become a ninth-grade alchemist.

"Alas, they really don't appreciate kindness."

Qin Sheng sighed, his eyes surging with emotion. Boundless soul power erupted as he unleashed his Primordial Mystic Technique.

In an instant, the auras of the three dragon kings vanished, their life force extinguished, unable to even withstand a moment's resistance.

On the surface, it looks like he could kill three Battle Saints with a single glare!
The void was silent, and all the ancient dragons on East Dragon Island and the other three major dragon islands were stunned.

What did they see?
A Dou Zun instantly killed three three-star Dou Sheng with a single glance—was it an illusion? When did that happen?!

How could they have such a dream?!
"I wasn't planning on acknowledging you, but you insisted on coming up to me."

Qin Sheng shook his head, put away the corpses of the three Dragon Kings, glanced at the powerful figures of the three Dragon Islands, and then unleashed his soul power to seal their power.

"Your fate depends on your performance."

The ancient dragons nodded incessantly, like chickens pecking at rice, indicating their cooperation, afraid that if they were too slow to respond, they would be glared at and killed.

How could there be such terrifying humans in the world?

"Elder Qingshan, I'm leaving the rest to you," Qin Sheng said.
"Let's also take over the other three Dragon Islands, gather the resources of the ancient dragon clan, and help Ziyan grow up as quickly as possible."

Qingshan accepted the order and left.

"After fulfilling all my wishes in Battle Through the Heavens, I can now act freely in this world..."

At least you don't have to worry about making a big move and destroying the Dan Tower, and then not being able to find anyone to respect you.

The three Dragon Kings brought their respective Dragon Island experts with them, sending a large force to the area. When Qingshan went to receive these three ancient dragons, he encountered no resistance.

The four Dragon Islands were put together again, and many resources were brought out for Qin Sheng to choose and use.

"With the support of the Soul Palace and the Ancient Dragon Clan, I can make a huge leap forward." With that thought, Qin Sheng swallowed the Three Thousand Burning Flames in one gulp.

The Dou Qi Continent has been shrouded in eternal darkness; it is time for a sun to appear and dispel the endless darkness!
