Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

Chapter 222 Half a Year

"However, you don't need to worry about the Flower Sect. Moreover, if you encounter them in the future, you must hold back and not offend them too much!"

At this point, Yao Chen's tone became somewhat subtle, leaving Xiao Yan quite puzzled.

"Teacher, why is that?"

"You don't need to ask any more questions about this matter. Just do as I say!"

"yes!"

"Hahaha, Junior Brother Xiao Yan, let me tell you!"

Just then, Lin Feng, who had been listening attentively, suddenly spoke up, his voice very serious, as if he were about to reveal some great secret.

"Lin Feng, you brat, shut your mouth!"

Sensing that his secrets were about to be exposed by this kid, Yao Chen hurriedly shouted.

"Hahaha, Junior Brother Xiao Yan, the reason your teacher asked you to go easy on him is because he has an old flame who is from the Flower Sect, and he has wronged her."

"Hahaha, do you think he'd let you go all out in this situation?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's previously serious expression immediately became subtle. Although he didn't say anything, the way he looked at his master unconsciously changed.

"Old Deng, I never expected you to be like this. All that seriousness lately was just to fool me!"

"Little Yanzi, what kind of look is that? Don't you trust your master?"

It can only be said that Yao Chen, a senior who has been in the Dou Qi Continent for hundreds of years, is different. If others were exposed for their shortcomings, they would be jumping up and down in a panic. However, his expression remained unchanged, and he looked at his foolish disciple with a deep gaze, his tone seemingly mixed with the cold fire of bone spirit, sometimes cold and sometimes warm.

As for Lin Feng, this arrogant brat who exposes others' weaknesses, the old man was helpless. Even if his soul power recovered to its peak, without a secret soul attack technique, he was still no match for this brat.

"Teacher, what are you doing? Which power in Zhongzhou were you talking about?"

"snort!"

Seeing that his seemingly dim-witted disciple had finally shown some intelligence, albeit towards himself, Yao Chen said nothing more. With a flick of his sleeve, Yao Chen continued speaking.

"Among the forces in Zhongzhou, besides the one palace, one tower, and two sects, among the remaining three valleys, the Burning Flame Valley and the Sound Valley are worth noting."

"Legend has it that deep within the small worlds of both of these beings lie true semi-saint level experts, experts whom even I, at my peak, dared not provoke!"

"As for this Ice Valley, it has completely declined. Not to mention your master, even Lin Feng will not take it seriously in a few decades."

"As for the remaining Four Directions Pavilion, there is no need to worry. The pavilion master is at most a four or five-star Dou Zun."

When the Four Directions Pavilion was mentioned, Yao Chen's expression changed slightly. He gazed towards the direction of Central Plains, as if he had seen a long-lost friend.

"Little Yanzi, work hard! After we reach Zhongzhou, I have another great opportunity waiting for you to inherit!"

"Yes, teacher, I will definitely work even harder!"

"Hmm, this child is teachable!"

Yao Chen stroked his beard slightly, nodded, and then took out a jade slip from his storage ring and tossed it to Lin Feng, who was standing to the side.

"Young Lin Feng, there is some information I left here. When you arrive in Zhongzhou, you can go directly to the three giants of the Pill Tower and hand it over to them. You will then get what you want."

Holding the jade slip in his hand, a hint of surprise flashed in Lin Feng's eyes. "Elder Yao, this..."

"Just accept it!" Yao Chen waved his hand. Just as you said, this is equivalent to my investment in you.

You've already seen the method of resurrection; perhaps I'll need your help in my own resurrection someday. Also, you know about your junior brother Xiao Yan's situation. If you ever learn anything about a strange fire, you can tell him.

"In that case, I'll accept it!"

After putting the jade slip into his storage ring, Lin Feng felt he couldn't accept the benefits from that old fox Yao Chen for nothing, otherwise he would have a hard time repaying the favor in the future. Recalling the opportunities that would appear in the original story and Xiao Yan's current realm, after a brief deliberation, he chose an opportunity that was no longer useful to him.

"Junior Brother Xiao Yan, if you reach the peak of the Dou Huang realm in the future and want to quickly cross the threshold between Dou Huang and Dou Zong, I would recommend a place for you."

Lin Feng put his hands behind his back and recalled a volcanic area in his mind.

"On the outskirts of Zhongzhou, there is a very famous place called the Blood Pool of Tianshan!"

"Due to the unique terrain, the volcanoes there, after erupting, gather most of the energy from deep underground. Although it's filled with fire poison, with the strange fire you control, there's absolutely no need to worry. You can confidently use this energy to advance to the Dou Zong realm!"

"Let me tell you another little secret: the tribe that protects this place, while benefiting from it, is also suffering greatly from the fire poison. You can go directly to them then; with your alchemy skills at that time, dealing with their fire poison should be a piece of cake."

After recounting the information from the original work, Lin Feng didn't linger. With a flash, he disappeared from the spot.

"Junior Brother Xiao Yan, work hard! Your brother will be waiting for you ahead!"

"Senior Brother Lin Feng, wait for me!"

Regardless of what Xiao Yan did, Lin Feng could no longer hear him. With Lin Feng's current spatial talent, he traversed the entire Canaan Academy in a few moments and arrived at the place where Cai Lin and Little Fairy Doctor were.

Upon seeing the two women drinking spiritual tea and discussing skincare, Lin Feng strolled forward, reached up to the peach tree above, and plucked two of the most beautiful and vibrant blossoms, placing them on the women's heads.

"My husband!"

"Brother Lin Feng!"

Indeed, the three of them were currently in Lin Feng's small courtyard in the inner courtyard, and the peach tree, after Lin Feng's years of cultivation, had reached a level comparable to a second-tier magical beast.

Especially after learning the Five Elements Technique, which is mainly based on the wood element, Lin Feng's fighting spirit gradually began to contain a special vitality of creation.

This vitality of creation not only greatly increased Lin Feng's battle qi recovery speed, but also allowed him to quickly recover from injuries when attacked.

However, this vitality has an even stronger effect on wood-attribute spiritual objects, which is why the peach tree evolves so quickly.

Furthermore, if Lin Feng did not pursue future benefits and instead refined the Bodhi seed, the characteristics of the wood attribute technique, which is the dominant element in the Five Elements Technique, would be enough to give the peach tree a faint trace of spirituality.

Lin Feng's cultivation technique may also advance to a level comparable to the Quasi-Heavenly Rank.

Of course, Lin Feng wouldn't be so short-sighted. This Bodhi seed is the medium to obtain the Bodhi Ancient Tree in the future. Without the help of this Bodhi seed, even Lin Feng wouldn't dare to guarantee that he could maintain his intelligence under the illusion of the Bodhi Ancient Tree.

He gently reached out and embraced the two women. All three remained silent, quietly savoring the warmth of the moment.

After a long while, the three slowly separated, but without saying a word, they went straight to the bedroom and began a fierce battle. Having undergone several enhancements from the Pill Lightning, Lin Feng's physical body had made a significant leap forward; this time, he was certain to establish his authority as the head of the household.

It took the three of them a full half month to finish the battle, and from Lin Feng's smiling face, one could tell who the victor was.

Meanwhile, the inherently strong-willed Queen Medusa, Cai Lin, took Little Fairy Doctor and went into seclusion in the cave above the lava field. Seeing this, Lin Feng had no choice but to return to the cave and begin his long period of seclusion as well.

Although his alchemy skills had reached the seventh rank, the scarcity of natural energy in the Northwest Continent made it extremely difficult to collect the necessary ingredients for refining seventh-rank pills.

Instead of wasting time on this, it would be better to focus on cultivation, go into seclusion to refine the Dragon Emperor's essence blood, and improve one's battle qi level and spatial manipulation as soon as possible.

There's also the strange demonic beast possessing Old Man Eagle Mountain. Lin Feng is currently spending most of his energy suppressing it. If he can't resolve it as soon as possible, he won't be able to fully unleash his combat power.

In his current state, if he were to encounter a peak Dou Zong expert, and Cai Lin and Little Fairy Doctor were not by his side, then he would have no choice but to use the Dragon Emperor's essence blood.

This wasn't a renewable energy source, and Lin Feng was too embarrassed to ask the Dragon Emperor for it again. After all, it was the most essential essence blood, and even with the old Dragon Emperor's physique, it would likely take him a long time to recover.

Of course, Lin Feng did not intend to completely eliminate the strange magical beast possessing the old man of Eagle Mountain. Ideally, he would seal it away without affecting his combat power.

After all, each time a portion of his soul power was refined, the released soul power was comparable to the hard work Lin Feng put into cultivating his soul technique for three days at full power.

If he could continue refining it like this for a year, Lin Feng was even confident that he could advance to the Spirit Realm Soul level.

Of course, with this guy's soul strength, he could only support Lin Feng's refining for three months at most. Otherwise, Lin Feng would not have been able to suppress him so easily!

Most importantly, this guy's soul power was so strong, and combined with his strange way of speaking, Lin Feng had a vague suspicion. If it was true, then he absolutely had to extract this guy's secret technique from him!

Having determined his strategy, Lin Feng entered the cave and began multitasking. While absorbing and refining the Dragon Emperor's essence blood, he also interrogated the "Old Man of Eagle Mountain," who was being refined over time!

Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye!

"Boom!"

On this day, about five hundred miles north of the cave where Lin Feng was in seclusion, a violent roar suddenly erupted. Immediately afterward, flames burst forth violently from a cave beneath the earth.

"Hahaha, teacher, I did it!"

A hearty laugh rang out, followed by a young figure bathed in crimson-yellow flames suddenly appearing in mid-air. The battle aura wings on his back were also burning fiercely, strangely, one side was earthy yellow while the other was crimson.

His aura fluctuated slightly, constantly shifting between the initial stage of Dou Wang and the final stage of two-star Dou Wang!

This young man is none other than Xiao Yan!

Half a year ago, Xiao Yan and Yao Lao discussed for a long time and finally decided to find Lin Feng and find a quiet cave 500 miles away from his secluded cave to refine the strange fire in seclusion!

After all, this refining process is different from the past. It not only requires absorbing this strange fire, but also fusing the two strange fires that seem to be natural enemies into one.

One wrong move and you could explode and die!

Therefore, the old doctor decided to refine the medicine not far from where Lin Feng was in seclusion. If anything went wrong, Lin Feng could reach the distance of 500 miles in a short time!

At that time, given Lin Feng's familiarity with the strange fire and his own powerful strength, he will be able to save Xiao Yan's life.

During the process of refining the strange fire, or rather after the two strange fires had merged, Xiao Yan did indeed encounter an accident.

Perhaps it was the volatile nature of the strange fire that caused Xiao Yan to act as if he had been given an aphrodisiac. Fortunately, Yao Lao had a flash of inspiration and used the unique properties of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire to create a lot of millennium-old ice. After a month of suppression, the aftereffects were eliminated.

During this time, Lin Feng naturally came out of seclusion. However, he was powerless to deal with this strange aftereffect. He couldn't very well go to the Black Corner Region to capture a woman!

Putting aside the fact that this violates his morality, the consequences are beyond his ability to bear. If one day in the future, the young lady of the ancient clan finds out that it was his idea, and he hasn't matured to a certain level by then, he will be in deep trouble.

Therefore, Lin Feng's only role was to provide Elder Yao with some spiritual medicine to restore his soul power!

"Little Flame, let's see what level the Burning Technique has evolved to!"

After Xiao Yan calmed down, a somewhat ethereal soul body floated out from the side.

"Teacher, what is your soul?"

"We can restore it later when there's another chance. That kid Lin Feng doesn't have that many spiritual items to restore soul power!"

Yao Chen waved his hand, indicating that Xiao Yan didn't need to worry, but a hint of relief flashed in his eyes.

"Fortunately, Lin Feng is here. Otherwise, relying solely on my soul power to suppress these aftereffects, I would probably be annihilated!"

The image of Lin Feng summoning a vast ocean and then controlling the Bone Spirit Cold Fire to turn it into ice flashed through Yao Lao's mind, and his eyes turned to amazement.

"However, Lin Feng's strength truly exceeds my expectations. Perhaps he's already on par with someone who has just entered the Dou Zun realm!"

Putting aside his many thoughts, Yao Chen looked at his foolish disciple and asked with a hint of expectation.

"Little Flame, just how far has this strange fire evolved?"

Upon hearing his master's question, Xiao Yan hurriedly closed his eyes and circulated his cultivation technique, eager to know just how far the Burning Blade Technique had progressed.

"Low-grade Earth Rank!"

Before long, Xiao Yan opened his eyes, his gaze filled with excitement!
