Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

Upon seeing Lin Feng appear, Xuan Kongzi and several other giants spoke first, their faces full of smiles.

"The next generation of Danta has grown up!"

Zi Yan and the others also walked over. Although they didn't say anything, the joy in their eyes was obvious to everyone.

"It was just luck. Lin Feng still has a long way to go to reach the level of Elder Xuan and others. He needs to continue to work hard!"

"Haha, you're as humble as ever!"

Xuan Kongzi and the others shook their heads and chuckled. However, it was precisely because of Lin Feng's personality that they were so close to him.

If you become arrogant after achieving some success and look down on your seniors, you will only become a laughing stock!

After all, which of those who became giants of the Pill Tower wasn't a renowned genius who was famous throughout the continent in their youth?

Moreover, even if your talent is truly unparalleled, it could still be cut short before you reach your peak!

"Lin Feng, I have a suggestion. I wonder if you would be willing to listen?"

"Oh, Elder Xuan, please speak frankly. If Lin Feng can do it, he will certainly try!"

"As you know, the Danta Grand Gathering is at most a year away now."

Xuan Kongzi slowly stepped forward, stroking his beard, a hint of wisdom flashing in his eyes.

"With your talent, coupled with the explosive period unique to the Spirit Realm when your soul advances, if you can seize the opportunity, you might be able to refine even four- or five-colored pill lightning by the time of the Pill Tower Grand Gathering!"

"Then, this year's champion is definitely yours!"

"Before that, I hope that when you are refining the eighth-grade pills, you can go to a mysterious place to avoid being exposed in advance and attracting the covetousness of the Soul Palace."

"After all, they are very wary of the prodigies of the Pill Tower!"

"Elder Xuan is absolutely right. After I have made all the necessary arrangements, I will follow you there!"

After pondering for a moment, Lin Feng roughly guessed the mysterious place that Xuan Kongzi had mentioned. If he was right, it should be the mysterious Little Pill Tower!

Lesser Pill Tower: The true core of the Pill Tower, said to be home to many powerful alchemists capable of refining eighth-grade, six- or even seven-colored pills.

Of the ten elders at the head, three are now giants. This suggests that the other seven, even if they are not eighth-grade nine-color alchemists, are at least eighth-color beings.

There are even one or two master pill refiners among them who can refine ninth-grade pills!

Such beings are extremely rare, even on the entire Dou Qi Continent, and each one is a master of alchemy!

While Lin Feng was discussing with Xuan Kongzi and the others, in a dark and damp place in Zhongzhou, which was shrouded in heavy fog all year round, gusts of cold wind howled from the depths of the fog from time to time, making people feel afraid.

Even mercenaries who risk their lives year-round wouldn't come to this place to search for treasure.

However, deep within the thick fog, rows of tall, pitch-black buildings stood, as if foreshadowing the evil that lurked there.

Deep within the main hall, rows of illusory figures were pierced through by invisible chains, and screams could be heard from time to time, which was truly horrifying.

"Lord of Ice River Valley, how dare you venture alone into the depths of my Soul Palace? Do you intend to sacrifice yourself for the great cause of my Soul Palace?"

A hoarse voice suddenly came from inside one of the halls, followed by a strange, grating laugh.

"Lord Nine Heavens Venerable, Binghe has come alone this time, surely with great sincerity. Why don't you listen to his advice?"

Standing before the Nine Heavens Venerable Demon Rain was none other than the Ice River Valley Master, the Ice River Venerable, though it was unknown how he knew the location of the Soul Palace.

However, this guy actually dared to come alone, and even Mo Yu had to admire his courage.

Under the same conditions, Mo Yu would not dare to go to the Pill Tower alone!

"Oh? Interesting. In that case, I, the Celestial Venerable, will give you a chance. If your answer does not satisfy me, hehehehe."

Looking at Binghe's body, Moyu suddenly laughed strangely. It was only a short time. If the offer Binghe made was not enough to satisfy him, then he could add the soul of a four-star Dou Zun to his achievements today!

"Nine Heavens Venerable, our Ice River Valley is willing to submit to the Soul Palace. I wonder if this counts as a merit for you, Nine Heavens Venerable?"

On his way here, Binghe had already figured it out: in the eyes of the truly powerful forces, Binghe Valley, where the elders had left, had been reduced to a force on par with the Four Directions Pavilion.

As for the Soul Hall taking action to capture that Calamity Poison Body, and even offending the Pill Tower in the process, the only gamble left is the complete surrender of the Ice River Valley!

In fact, if the Soul Palace is not satisfied, whether he can even leave this hall today is another matter entirely.

"Glacier Valley's surrender? That's somewhat plausible. Let this Celestial Venerable consider it!"

Unexpectedly, the Valley Master of Ice River Valley was actually the biggest traitor in Ice River Valley, which made Demon Rain Celestial Venerable pause for a moment, and he didn't even unleash his signature strange laugh.

"Tap, tap, tap"

"The Palace Master and the others have been up to something big lately, and we haven't heard from them for quite some time."

"However, with my elder brother's strength, as long as that old codger Danta doesn't make a move, if we weren't worried about the other imperial clans, even if we turned the entire Central Continent upside down, it wouldn't be a big deal."

"If I, the Celestial Venerable, could bring Ice River Valley under my control, the speed at which I collect souls in the future would undoubtedly become even faster. This would be a great achievement!"

"Who knows, I might even receive a reward for this and be promoted to a nine-star Dou Zun!"

"However, we also need to see what Hyoga is up to."

Having made up her mind, Mo Yu suddenly looked up, revealing an extremely pale face.

"Glacier, I, the Celestial Venerable, can grant you, Glacier Valley, but before that, I want to know exactly what your plans are!"

"You only have one chance. I hope you'll make the most of it. If you dare to mess with me, you'd better know what the consequences are, hehehe."

"Nine Heavens Venerable, to be honest, in addition to the ice-attribute battle qi that I was born with, I have also refined an acquired Calamity Poison Body."

"The Acquired Calamity Poison Body? Hehehe, Hyoga, so that's what you were planning."

Upon hearing the term "Calamity Poison Body," Mo Yu immediately thought of the intelligence that had come from Saint Pill City some time ago.

A person with the Calamity Poison Physique actually broke through the innate limitations and reached the Dou Zun realm without unleashing their full potential. Of course, this was nothing special for the Soul Palace.

Even the Calamity Poison Body, which had once approached the level of a half-saint over thousands of years, still died under the siege of many forces in the Central Continent.

Even if one achieves the status of a half-saint, it is still nothing in front of the Soul Palace!

"Nine Heavens Venerable has good eyesight. Ice River has come here not only to throw himself into the embrace of the Soul Palace, but also to ask the Soul Palace to capture this Calamity Poison Body."

"If the Nine Heavens Venerable is willing to help, Binghe will certainly obey the Venerable's orders from now on!"

Suddenly, Binghe knelt down on one knee, his face showing respect.

"As long as I obtain the Calamity Poison Body and seize the opportunity it holds, even if I'm only at the Half-Saint realm, I'll have a chance to break through. Then, I'll have a chance to avenge today's humiliation!"

Looking at Binghe kneeling on the ground, Moyu did not immediately agree. If he wanted to deal with this Calamity Poison Body, he would have to enter the territory of Saint Pill City.

If he were to act alone, let alone whether the operation would succeed, it would be another matter if he could even get out!

Get up!

"Thank you, Heavenly Venerable!"

Binghe, who thought Moyu had agreed, was overjoyed. Just as he was about to ask Moyu when they would act, a cold voice came from behind him.

"If you want to work for my Soul Palace, you must first show sincerity. Release your soul essence!"

"Heavenly Venerable One, what do you mean by this?"

At this moment, Hyoga finally sensed something was wrong, and his expression turned somewhat grim.

"Hmph! You have no right to speak before this Heavenly Venerable!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Yu's figure suddenly disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already behind Binghe.

A jet-black chain appeared in his hand, swirled a few times, and then suddenly plunged into the depths of Binghe's head, planting a mark that exuded an evil black aura!

After making this move, the figure of the Nine Heavens Venerable Demon Rain suddenly disappeared, and only an evil, strange voice echoed in the dark hall.

"Hyperion, remember this: with the strength of your Ice River Valley, you're only fit to be the dogs of our Soul Hall!"

"As for when we'll set off to capture that Calamity Poison Body, just wait and see when it emerges from Saint Pill City! Hehehehehehehe"

"It's over!"

Outside the Blood Pool of Tianshan in the northern region of Zhongzhou, the patriarch and elders of the Gold-Eating Rat clan stood atop the mountain, overlooking the endless blood plasma within the crater.

"Elder Jin Valley, do you think Mr. Xiao Yan will be able to break through to the four-star Dou Zong realm this time?"

The one who spoke was Jin Shi, the patriarch of the Gold-Eating Rat clan. Half a month ago, before the Blood Pool Trial began, Xiao Yan went directly to the Gold-Eating Rat clan and said that he wanted to use the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool to accumulate energy.

Jin Shi originally didn't want to pay attention to him, but as soon as Xiao Yan opened his mouth, Jin Shi's attitude changed instantly.

"Chief Jinshi, if I'm not mistaken, the Gold-Eating Rat clan suffers from fire poison to varying degrees, doesn't that mean they all do?"

Although it was a question, the certainty in Xiao Yan's words was quite obvious.

"Who are you? How do you know the secrets of my Gold-Eating Rat clan?"

Jin Shi's expression was extremely unpleasant, while Jin Gu and several other elders stepped forward silently and surrounded Xiao Yan.

Judging from the situation, if Xiao Yan doesn't give a clear explanation, things might not end well today.

"I am Xiao Yan, a seventh-grade alchemist!"

"What!?"

As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, Jin Shi and the others' attitudes changed drastically again, and they quickly became respectful.

"Without further ado, the Gold-Eating Rat clan will provide me with the finest blood pool for half a month of cultivation. I will also personally remove the Gold-Eating Rat clan's fire poison. What do you say?"

Xiao Yan waved his hand, having yet to find a way to revive his teacher, but at this moment he didn't have much patience.

Although Yao Lao once said that the three giants of the Pill Tower and the people involved in the Starfall Pavilion were all old friends of his.

Among them, Feng Xian, the master of the Starfall Pavilion, is his sworn brother. If he needs anything after arriving in Zhongzhou, he can go to them.

However, after arriving in Zhongzhou, Xiao Yan did not follow Yao Chen's instructions, but instead went to Saint Pill City to find Lin Feng.

Of course, Lin Feng happened to be in seclusion, so he had no chance to meet him.

As for the three giants of the Pill Tower, Xiao Yan had no trust in them whatsoever. Even Han Feng from back then betrayed him just the same way.

Therefore, apart from his senior brother Lin Feng, with whom he had personal contact, he didn't trust anyone else.

As for Feng Xian, Xiao Yan learned from his inquiries that he had been searching for him all these years. Therefore, Xiao Yan also planned to go to the Starfall Pavilion after the trip to the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool.

Xuan Yi had been inquiring for years about why Xiao Yan hadn't sought his help, and Lin Feng was partly to blame.

After Lin Feng brought news of Yao Chen, Xuan Yi withdrew the bounty.

Therefore, Xiao Yan, who had been under immense pressure during this period, dared not try anything and gave up the idea of ​​going to Xuan Yi for help.

"Clan leader, Mr. Xiao Yan has broken through to the four-star Dou Zong realm at such a young age, which is much stronger than the top young talents of the Four Directions Pavilion."

"Whether he can break through or not is not something I, a mere nobody who has just broken through to the Dou Zong level, can afford to care about!"

Despite this, Jin Gu's tone was full of pride, because with the help of Xiao Yan's Breakthrough Pill, he had broken through the bottleneck that had plagued him for many years and advanced to the Dou Zong realm!

"You!"

After hearing this, Chief Jinshi shook his head, both amused and exasperated, his eyes filled with emotion.

"Indeed, such a prodigy is beyond our comprehension. Fortunately, we have befriended him this time. I believe our Gold-Eating Rat clan will have a bright future!"

"I didn't expect it to be my turn to make a contribution so soon!"

Within the Soul Palace where the Nine Heavens Venerable Demon Rain resided, a deep voice slowly resounded. It was none other than the Iron Protector whom Lin Feng had subdued in the Northwest Continent!

With Lin Feng's help, he successfully arrived in Zhongzhou. After several twists and turns, he ended up under the command of the Nine Heavens Venerable Demon Rain.

During this time, he had been lurking deep within the Soul Palace, only occasionally going out to pass messages to Lin Feng, but never revealing a single clue!

Just now, the Soul Palace here issued a message: keep a close eye on the group of people with the Calamity Poison Body residing in Saint Pill City.

Upon hearing this, he knew his chance had come. The group with the Calamity Poison Body—wasn't that Lin Feng and his group?

Iron Guardian, who had lived in constant fear for years, dreading being killed by Lin Feng using a secret technique without having rendered any merit, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As for why he didn't tell Mo Yu about being controlled by Lin Feng, Protector Tie wasn't stupid. Putting aside the fact that with his level, it was one thing if he could even meet the Venerable Elder, let alone the Heavenly Venerable.

Furthermore, if Lin Feng's control technique is extremely difficult to deal with, and even the Heavenly Venerable has no way to resolve it, then his life will be in danger!

As a member of the Soul Palace, Protector Tie did not believe that Mo Yu would spare his life under those circumstances!
