Chapter 3 The Sensible Hai Bodong

When Ji Feng suspected that he had hidden the companion amethyst source, the Amethyst Winged Lion King panicked and even began to stammer.

"Lord Dou Zong, I really didn't lie to you. Three months ago, two people did steal the Companion Purple Crystal Source. Look at this horn of mine, it was cut off by a Dou Huang woman."

"It shouldn't be lying, Ji Feng, let's go."

Now that it's confirmed Xiao Yan visited this place three months ago, there's no need for Jiang Xing to stay here.

He originally came here to steal other people's things, and since the Amethyst Winged Lion King hadn't provoked him, there was naturally no need to kill it.

That doesn't offer any benefits. As for sixth-tier magic cores, well, sorry, his grandfather was a six-star Dou Sheng, and it's no exaggeration to say that his childhood toys were all seventh-tier magic cores.

A sixth-tier magic core really didn't appeal to him... He didn't care about it; it would be a waste of storage space.

If the Amethyst Winged Lion King had known what Jiang Xing was thinking, it would have definitely doubted its own existence.

His own magic core was considered a coveted treasure by many, but Jiang Xing didn't even want it, complaining that it was a waste of storage space...

Jiang Xing had anticipated that this trip would end in failure, so there was no need to be discouraged or waste his energy. He could simply wait for the snake people to come to him.

Moreover, he also really wanted to meet Medusa, the snake-woman queen.

In the original story, Medusa chose to use the power of a different kind of fire to temper her body and activate the ancient Devouring Python bloodline within her so that the Snake People could leave the desert.

Although this method did indeed offer Medusa a chance to break through.

However, it should be noted that the Snake People's constitution is yin and cold, while the Strange Fire is an extremely yang substance.

In the original story, Medusa suffered greatly while evolving using a different kind of fire.

However, Medusa eventually broke through to the Dou Zong level and evolved into the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python.

They are willing to risk using different flames to evolve in order to secure a better living territory for their race.

Jiang Xing admired Medusa's spirit, and now that he had transmigrated to the Doupo world, he naturally wanted to meet her.

Jiang Xing and Ji Feng then went to the cave that Little Fairy Doctor had discovered.

After confirming that Xiao Yan had taken the remaining map and other items, Jiang Xing and Ji Feng set off for the Snake-People Clan.

The Snake-People race was not far from the Monster Mountain Range, and with Ji Feng, a Dou Zun, leading the way, Jiang Xing arrived at Graphite City in less than an hour.

That's right, it's Graphite City. Jiang Xing suddenly remembered on the way that there was a fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame Map in Hai Bodong's hands.

Although he was going to rob Xiao Yan sooner or later, Jiang Xing was a cautious person. He was unsure whether his arrival would cause a butterfly effect, so he felt more at ease after he had taken the robbed Xiao Yan.

In Graphite City, there are not many people with the strength of a Fighting Spirit. With Jiang Xing's powerful soul force, he quickly found Hai Bodong's map shop.

Arriving at the map shop named "Gutu", the shop door was still open.

The two stepped inside and scanned the shop. It wasn't very spacious, but it was brightly lit. There wasn't a single person buying maps, so business was quite slow.

Behind the counter was an elderly man who was carefully making a map with his head down. If I'm not mistaken, this elderly man should be Hai Bodong.

"The items are on the counter; choose what you want."

Hai Bodong sensed someone approaching, but didn't look up, continuing to carefully draw the map.

Jiang Xing didn't speak. Knowing the original story, he went to a wooden shelf in the corner of the shop where a tattered map was placed.

He casually rummaged through the yellowed maps, picked up a stack of maps, and his hand trembled slightly. Suddenly, a tattered picture, no bigger than a palm, fell out of the pile.

"Found it!"

He bent down and picked up the fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame Diagram.

Suddenly, a hoarse voice came from behind the counter.

"Kid, I'm not selling that incomplete map. Put it down."

"You should still have the other half of the map, right? Hand it over, or I'll force you to take it by force."

Jiang Xing seemed not to have heard Hai Bodong's words and spoke to himself.

"Kid, you're too arrogant. Since that's the case, don't blame me for bullying the weak."

As Hai Bodong spoke, a chilling aura emanated from his body, enveloping the entire shop before surging towards Jiang Xing and his companion.

"Hmph, a mere Battle Spirit dares to be so presumptuous."

Faced with the oppressive aura of Hai Bodong, Ji Feng knew that this aura could not harm Jiang Xing at all, but he naturally had to maintain the correct attitude.

He snorted coldly and immediately released his aura as a fifth-level Dou Zun.

An overwhelming aura surged towards Hai Bodong like a tidal wave, directly pressing the just-asleep Hai Bodong back to the ground.

"Dou Zong..." Hai Bodong, lying on the ground, looked on in fear.

Although his current cultivation level is sealed down to only the strength of a Dou Ling, he was once a Dou Huang powerhouse.

In his view, anyone who could unleash such an aura must be at least a high-level Dou Zong.

Seeing that Hai Bodong, like the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, also regarded him as a Dou Zong, Ji Feng did not explain. What was the point of explaining to an ant?

"Are you now willing to hand over the remaining map?"

Jiang Xing looked at Hai Bodong, who was being pressed to the ground and struggling to breathe, and gestured for Ji Feng to stop.

"I'll pay...I'll pay."

Ji Feng stopped exerting pressure, and Hai Bodong stood up, covered in sweat. He hurriedly took out the other half of the map from his storage ring and presented it with both hands.

He completely lacked the temperament of Hai Bodong, the Ice Emperor, one of the top ten strongest warriors of the Jia Ma Empire.

What a joke! Even his bodyguards are Dou Zong level experts. What makes him so arrogant? Even if he loses the entire Mittel family, it's still nothing.

Hai Bodong now only hopes that after he hands over the incomplete map, the other party will let him go and forget what he just said.

At the same time, he was also curious: Why would a high-level Dou Zong appear in Graphite City? Could it really be just for this incomplete map?

Hai Bodong's mind raced, and he suddenly remembered the energy fluctuations of the strange fire he had sensed in recent years.

"Could it be for the Strange Flame? That's it! Only a Strange Flame could attract a high-level Dou Zong expert."

Thinking of this, Hai Bodong was extremely excited.

How could he not be excited? The two people in front of him had taken the incomplete map and showed no intention of leaving, and the guards beside them were keeping a close eye on him.

This scene looks exactly like guards waiting for their master's orders. As for what the orders are, is there even a need to ask?

He figured that if he handed over the map showing the possible locations of the strange fires that he had been researching for the past few years, the two of them would probably let him go.

"Young master, I was rude just now. I presume your purpose is the strange fire? I have noticed the fluctuations of a strange fire in the vicinity over the past few years. After several investigations, I have found the approximate location of the strange fire. I am willing to offer it up. I hope you can forgive my rudeness just now."

He gently rummaged in his pocket and finally pulled out a thin piece of parchment, which he presented with both hands as before.

Jiang Xing took the map from Hai Bodong and glanced at it casually.

This is an extremely detailed map of the Tagor Desert, with a very conspicuous flame symbol in each of the three directions: east, west, and north.

Jiang Xing, who had read the original novel, knew that the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame was located in the eastern part of Graphite City.

With the map as a guide, he and Ji Feng no longer needed to expend energy searching the Tagher Desert.

Seeing that Hai Bodong was so cooperative, Jiang Xing gave him an approving look.

"Hmm, very good. Let's forget about what happened earlier."

Having obtained the fragmented map and the location of the strange fire, Jiang Xing had no interest in staying there to watch Hai Bodong's cautious and cowardly behavior.

After putting away the remaining map and confirming the direction, he stepped into the air and flew towards the eastern part of Graphite City.
