Start from refining weapons in Doupo Xiuxian

"Those old souls of the Soul Clan currently don't have a more effective way to seize the Tuoshe Ancient Jade from the Ancient Clan. Although asking you to steal the jade sounds a bit far-fetched, it's better than having no clue at all, isn't it?"

"." Yao Chen, Hun Ke'er and others looked at Jiang Lin strangely, and after thinking for a while, they suddenly realized that this method seemed outrageous, but it seemed unexpectedly reasonable?

After all, the Soul Clan can't do anything about it anyway, so why not test the waters with Xiao Yan? In the end, whether one or two Ancient Jades are missing makes no difference. And if successful, they can obtain both Ancient Jades without bloodshed. As for whether Xiao Yan can resist? Resistance requires immense strength; resistance without strength is courting death.

"So, after all this circumvention, will the Tuoshe Ancient Jade still be in my hands? I'll just have the completely hopeless task of 'stealing the jade'?" Xiao Yan felt a little confused, looking at the calm Jiang Lin in front of him with an expression of disbelief. Is there really a way to have the best of both worlds? He had already mentally prepared himself to hand over the Tuoshe Ancient Jade! So why was it still in my hands?

If handing over the Tuoshe Ancient Jade could save his life, then Xiao Yan would not hesitate at all, because he knew that if he died, everything would be gone.

As for the hatred between the Xiao Clan and the Soul Clan, to be honest, the Xiao family that Xiao Yan currently belongs to actually has no sense of belonging to the legendary Xiao Clan. Yao Chen has now explained to Xiao Yan the decline of the Xiao Clan in his mind. After a quick understanding, Xiao Yan feels that the Xiao Clan does not care about the life and death of their descendants, so why should their Xiao family care about the grievances of their ancestors?

If Yao Chen had said that the ancestors of the Xiao clan fought to the death with the Soul clan for the survival of their clan, and finally died heroically to cover their clan's retreat, then no one would have to say that Xiao Yan, and indeed everyone in the Xiao family, had the gene of revenge running deep in their blood.

However, according to Jiang Lin's theory of "Spiritual Qi Theory," the Xiao Clan and the current Xiao Family have essentially no blood relationship. Therefore, Xiao Yan would naturally not mindlessly shoulder such an inexplicable grudge. Furthermore, risking the lives of the entire Xiao Family and engaging in a futile confrontation with the Soul Clan would be even more unreasonable.

For Xiao Yan now, what he wants most is to lead his family to rise, rather than leading his family to fight against the super imperial clan that is obviously not at the same level.

As a former Earthling, Xiao Yan knew very well that if he trusted the wisdom of future generations, then they would naturally be able to respond by temporarily shelving historical issues.

Since the Xiao clan does not treat the Xiao family as human beings, then the Xiao family naturally has no sense of belonging to the glory of the Xiao clan.

"If it's done right, that's it." Jiang Lin nodded to Xiao Yan and said softly. The Tuoshe Ancient Jade is too special. It needs eight pieces to be useful. If there is only one piece, it is useless.

Hmm. Jiang Lin's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly felt that he might be able to rely on the special nature of his spiritual eyes. Could he try to study the Tuoshe ancient jade?

But soon, Jiang Lin denied his own thoughts in his heart.

"The Spirit Tribe couldn't have thought of this for so many years, but they probably didn't follow through. Otherwise, the situation on the continent would be even more turbulent and complicated." "Even among the Spirit Tribe, which boasts a group of Dou Sheng masters, they haven't managed to decipher the Tuoshe Ancient Jade. This means that the Tuoshe Ancient Jade is clearly no longer a product of the Dou Sheng realm."

'Although the path I take may be a little special. If the level of my spiritual eyes is stronger than those mentally ill ancestors of the Spirit Clan, I will have to wait until I reach at least the Fighting Saint realm before I dare to try to study the Tushe Ancient Jade.' Jiang Lin looked at the three people with different expressions and thought calmly in his heart.

There were so many people here, Jiang Lin couldn't reveal any thoughts of breaking the rules of the Tuoshe Ancient Jade Eight-in-One. He could choose to trust Hun Ke'er and others on some matters, but he generally wouldn't reveal any matters that were too important.

Once people knew that Jiang Lin had this idea and it was leaked accidentally, there was no doubt that Jiang Lin would be targeted by various top forces for no reason, regardless of success or failure. Jiang Lin never liked to do this kind of thankless task.

Jiang Lin now even didn't want to even look at the Xiao clan's Tuoshe ancient jade that seemed to be so close at hand, so as to avoid any unnecessary associations.

"Then Brother Lin, what do we need to do?" Xiao Yan asked Jiang Lin. Since he was now a vested interest, he did not have a very negative opinion of the Soul Palace and the Soul Clan. Although the Soul Palace did have a reputation for doing bad things, the current Soul Palace has built its own Western Region branch palace magnificently, like a holy temple, and its style of doing things has also begun to become saving people from suffering. Naturally, the two are incomparable.

"No need to do anything. When the time is right, Uncle Ke'er will introduce you to a Soul Clan Saint." Jiang Lin didn't want the Soul Clan to confront his beloved protagonist too early, so he added, "The Western Region Soul Palace is considered the Spiritual Craftsman's sphere of influence. As long as everyone keeps it secret, we will pretend that we have never discovered your true identity. Generally speaking, the Ancient Clan would not expect the Soul Clan to let go of a Xiao Clan member carrying the Tuoshe Ancient Jade."

"This means that your identity as a member of the Xiao clan will be officially revealed when you go to Zhongzhou in the future," Yao Chen added.

"That means I have to contact the people of the Ancient Clan, right? Can I get in touch with them? Even though they asked me to slack off, I certainly can't just give up, right?" Xiao Yan also understood that the Soul Clan seemed to be divided into good and bad people. This distinction between good and bad was based on Xiao Yan's own physical sensations.

"Well, Miss Xun'er's bloodline is very strong. She can bring you into the sight of the upper echelons of the ancient clan." Jiang Lin simply reminded him. Because Hun Ke'er was beside him, he did not elaborate. Hun Ke'er only knew that Gu Xun'er was a core member of the ancient clan, but she did not know the exact level of Gu Xun'er's bloodline. Hun Ke'er did not know, but Jiang Lin did.

Well, how should I put it? Hun Ke'er and Gu Xun'er both have Imperial Blood of a fairly high rank. Jiang Lin suspected Gu Xun'er of divine blood, having previously possessed divine spiritual blood and possessing a certain familiarity with divine bloodline statistics. Hun Ke'er's bloodline, however, was not low-ranking, though Jiang Lin currently had no reason to examine her, so he had no idea how high her Imperial Blood level was. He could only roughly infer that Hun Ke'er was likely a core member of the Hun Clan.

"What if the Gu Clan snatches the jade from me? According to Brother Lin, if I don't have the jade, won't I be of no use?" Xiao Yan was stunned. He thought of something and realized that he really needed to go to the Gu Clan for Gu Xun'er's matter.

"You don't have to worry about that. The Soul Clan will naturally put pressure on the Ancient Clan." Hun Ke'er smiled mysteriously, her eyes flickering as she looked at Jiang Lin's broad back beside her. Hun Ke'er felt that Jiang Lin's casually proposed bad idea was indeed very feasible.

Why? Because Hun Ke'er knew that the Soul Clan would inevitably put pressure on the other Imperial Clan, and at this time, Xiao Yan, who had infiltrated the Ancient Clan, might really have a chance to obtain the ancient jade.

After all, what if Gu Yuan were to sneak in? Wouldn't that be exactly what the Soul Clan wanted?

Besides, since it was just a casual move, Hun Ke'er didn't think the Soul Clan's Dou Sheng elders would reject this plan. Although Hun Ke'er was now showing signs of wanting to leave the Soul Clan, she would still be happy to facilitate anything that could help the Soul Clan.

"Let's do it this way! Thank you Brother Lin for the reminder!" Xiao Yan hesitated slightly, then bowed to Hun Ke'er and Jiang Lin to express his gratitude.

Although Xiao Yan felt somewhat helpless, he also knew that if Jiang Lin hadn't proactively informed him of this matter, he and the Xiao family behind him would likely have suffered a devastating disaster. As the saying goes, if you save the land but lose the people, both the land and the people are lost. If you save the people but lose the land, both the land and the people are saved. For Xiao Yan and the Xiao family today, the Tuoshe Ancient Jade is a piece of commemorative jade, a piece of heritage that can be lost.

What's more, Jiang Lin directly operated, and Xiao Yan was shocked to find that the Tushe Ancient Jade was finally in his hands. He just had an extra small and insignificant task. As for the quality of the task and whether it was completed, that was all a matter of the future. Who could have predicted what would happen in the future?

Just as Jiang Lin often said, we should look at problems in the context of development. For example, Xiao Yan knew that there was a joke about "joint development" on Earth in his previous life. When I was weak, we all developed it together, and when I became strong, no, buddy, you really dare to develop it?

Look at problems in the context of development. This sentence can be translated into Douqi Continent as working hard to improve your own strength. As long as your strength is high enough, the previous problems will no longer be problems.

For example, Xiao Yan knew that Jiang Lin would sometimes complain about the Soul Tax signed with Soul Palace not long ago. Even with Hun Ke'er's notarization, Jiang Lin's share of the Soul Tax wasn't very high, with less than 20% being his. It wasn't that Jiang Lin couldn't ask for more, but rather that he didn't dare ask for more. Because the head of the Western Region Soul Palace's branch hall had appeared, a two-star Dou Zun named Qinghai, with his then-nine-star Lesser Dou Wang strength, Jiang Lin could only get a little over 10%. If he could get closer to 20%, it would have been Hun Ke'er who protected him.

In the words of the Qinghai Venerable, "Young man, although you are indeed very intelligent, talented, and from the lineage of Soul Craftsmen, the Soul Tax system you created has amazed everyone in the Main Hall. Logically speaking, with your talent and background, no one would object to cooperating with the Soul Hall, even if you took 40% to 50% of the profits. However, if the Soul Hall dares to give it to you, do you dare to take it?"

"This isn't a threat, but rather advice from the Soul Palace to the younger generation. Pursuing benefits that everyone covets without sufficient strength is extremely dangerous. Institutional rules are established through violence. If you don't have enough power, don't expect others to abide by your rules. This is why you're cooperating with the Soul Palace on the Soul Tax, isn't it? Because the Soul Palace is sufficiently violent. If you possess sufficient power, you can overturn the old system at any time and establish one that suits your interests."

Perhaps it was because the Spirit Craftsman's background and talent impressed Venerable Qinghai so much that his words were sincere. It's not that he doesn't want to give it to you, but you can't hold on to it. If you want more benefits, you must wield greater violence. Benefits are obtained through force, not by rules.

So despite his complaints, Jiang Lin also accepted this "Soul Tax Treaty". The profit of one or two percent was enough to sustain him for a while.

Jiang Lin was like this, so Xiao Yan naturally understood after long-term contact that development (strength) was the only truth that mattered.

After seeing Hun Ke'er off, Jiang Lin brought Xiao Yan, who looked a little confused, to the bottom floor of the Burning Heaven Refining Tower under the refining room, which was the most spacious area with strange fire.

"Brother Lin, what are you going to do?" Xiao Yan's eyes lit up instantly. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and many things had been prepared in advance!

He has prepared all kinds of auxiliary pills and colorful scales!

Hmm? What the hell is preparing for the colorful scales?

"I'm going on a long journey." Jiang Lin raised his hand slightly and took a colorful little snake out of Xiao Yan's body.

Xiao Yan: No!!!

Chapter 567 Two Fallen Heart Flames!

Hiss

The colorful little snake coiled up in Jiang Lin's hand, sucking its pink little tongue at Jiang Lin.

Cai Lin, the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, has essentially recovered to the strength of a Dou Zong (Dou Queen) stage, very close to the realm of Queen Medusa. However, due to the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python's powerful racial traits, Cai Lin's true combat power is comparable to that of an ordinary low-star Dou Zong. However, at this moment, this powerful wild creature behaved quite docilely in Jiang Lin's palm.

On the one hand, Jiang Lin is Cai Lin's breadwinner and the client's father. On the other hand, Cai Lin feels that she may not be able to defeat the burly and strong man in black in front of her.

Isn't Taixu Ancient Dragon's Ziyan very powerful? While Xiao Yan was using her as a punching bag, Cai Lin also sparred with her. While not using her full strength, Cai Lin, who was clearly at a higher level, found herself with a 60/40 chance of winning against Ziyan, who had recently broken through to Douhuang. But Cai Lin also knew that if she went all out in a life-or-death battle, she would likely lose. For one thing, Ziyan had a stronger constitution and greater resilience, and for another, if Ziyan tried to escape, Cai Lin wouldn't be able to catch her.

But it was Zi Yan, who had almost the same combat power as her, who came a few days ago to compete with Jiang Lin, who had just broken through to the Douhuang realm.

Well. Jiang Lin just stretched his muscles silently, then said that he had a new understanding and understanding of the "Eight Desolate Powers" recently, and let Zi Yan attack at will. He did not fight back, and then Zi Yan beat him to tears.

Yes, Ziyan beat herself to tears

At that time, Cai Lin and others were watching in a daze. They saw Zi Yan's fist, which seemed to be able to break the void, slammed into Jiang Lin's chest with a bang. Then, the next moment, a powerful reaction force directly shook out, and instantly knocked Zi Yan away!

The advancement of Eight Desolate Power——Eight Desolate Tyrant Body!

If Jiang Lin's Eight Desolate Power derived from the exquisite physical fighting skill of Baji Collapse is still an ultimate power attack skill, then after a year of development and reconstruction, Jiang Lin, with the special characteristics of his own spiritual weapon body, finally succeeded in further advancing the Eight Desolate Power in the process of Tianlei body forging, and upgraded it into a new physical secret method that combines offense and defense - Eight Desolate Tyrant Body!

The effect of the Eight Desolate Tyrant Body was simple: it combined a portion of Jiang Lin's strength with that of the attacker and bounced them back! Although the rebound force wasn't high, combined with Jiang Lin's terrifying spiritual weapon body, Zi Yan's bare hands hitting Jiang Lin was like an ordinary person hitting a spiked iron plate with their bare hands. Zi Yan didn't know if the iron plate hurt, but she was in excruciating pain!

And the most terrifying thing is that even if Zi Yan wrapped her fist with Dou Qi, the recoil force of Jiang Lin's Eight Desolate Tyrant Body can still easily disperse her Dou Qi and directly inject the power into Zi Yan's small fist. Covered with dragon scales, the recoil force can already penetrate into the bone marrow. This is originally the advancement of Eight Desolate Power. The recoil force of the Eight Desolate Tyrant Body still has a strong ability to break through defense.

Zi Yan's defense was broken, tears came out, and she ran away with red eyes and a groan.

At the time, Jiang Lin just shrugged helplessly, because not long after, Zi Yan, who had coaxed herself to calm down with red eyes, ran back again, glared at Jiang Lin with gritted teeth, and snorted, "Give it to me! I want to learn too!"

"Brother Lin, Cai Lin is the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, and it could be of some help." Xiao Yan, seeing that the beautiful bodyguard Jiang Lin had given him had been confiscated, became anxious and spoke out hastily. He understood that Jiang Lin didn't want other people to disturb him, but Xiao Yan already considered Cai Lin one of his own.

Hiss

Cai Lin obediently licked her tongue in Jiang Lin's palm. Thanks to the krypton gold recharge channel opened by Jiang Lin, Cai Lin's soul had been fused with the soul pills. Cai Lin was now Queen Medusa, and Queen Medusa was also Cai Lin. Even after regaining Queen Medusa's consciousness, Cai Lin still behaved extremely well in front of Jiang Lin.

As the saying goes, a man of insight is a hero, and Cai Lin certainly knew the time. Especially when she realized the super monsters Jiang Lin had gathered at Canaan Academy, she didn't dare to even think of resisting. There were so many monsters around Jiang Lin that any one of them could easily crush her to death.

If Xiao Yan, the alchemist, would gather a large group of powerful people around him, then Jiang Lin, the super-class weapon refining grandmaster, would automatically attract all monsters to him, including alchemists.

Honestly, if Jiang Lin's personality wasn't so jarring, Cailin would have seriously considered joining him and getting some food and drink. But Cailin ultimately rejected this unrealistic thought. Why? Because she realized she was being treated like a pet in his presence, and her pride made her unwilling to yield. She wasn't as naive as Ziyan, and she genuinely felt uncomfortable with Jiang Lin's "indifferent" behavior.

On the contrary, in front of Xiao Yan, she was still the proud queen, and she could still use Xiao Yan's relationship to continue to eat and drink for free. Her life was quite comfortable, so naturally there was no need for her to change her status.

Cai Lin's intuition and choice were incredibly accurate, as Jiang Lin truly maintained a contented attitude towards many things: "Having is enough." For example, Jiang Lin already had Zi Yan in his pet inventory, so he wasn't particularly interested in training a new Warcraft pet. Jiang Lin's daily schedule, between training and research, was completely devoid of the energy to waste on repetitive tasks.

Even Jiang Lin's idea of ​​a 'pet equipment bar' came about after he saw that Xiao Yixian and Xiao Yan both had 'pets', and he then remembered that he wanted to get one for himself. Otherwise, with his contented mentality, he probably wouldn't have the resources to spend on raising a 'pet'.

"Well, that's fine." Jiang Lin looked carefully at the colorful scale in his palm for a long time. Only when the latter felt a little scared did he finally choose to throw the colorful scale back to Xiao Yan.

He was going on a long journey and might not be back for three or four months, so if possible, he wanted to take Xiao Yan with him to subdue the Fallen Heart Flame under the Burning Heaven Refining Tower.

Because when he returns from outside Xutian, it won't be long before Hun Ke'er takes them to the Ancient Sea of ​​Cang. The resources and experience there are enough for Xiao Yixian and others to upgrade to Douhuang, and Jiang Lin himself can also gain a lot of benefits from it.

Hun Ke'er had already told him that the Ancient Sea Secret Realm was a bloody furnace, a 'blood refining secret realm' left behind by a top leader from ancient times. With Jiang Lin's unrivaled strength, as long as he didn't bring anyone else to the final few levels, there would be virtually no problem.

However, Jiang Lin heard Hun Ke'er's meaning, which seemed to require him to go to the depths of the Ancient Sea Secret Realm to look for something. This was why Jiang Lin had to solve the matter of Jiuyou Fuyaofeng before the Ancient Sea Secret Realm. Regardless of whether he could get it or not, the time was almost up and he had to return.

At the same time, Xiao Yan and the others needed to improve their strength quickly, as Jiang Lin understood that the opponents they would face would all be physical cultivators. Jiang Lin's fights against human Dou Huangs were a piece of cake, as they were too weak and had little room for error, while Jiang Lin's explosive power was exceptionally strong. A single careless blow from a human Dou Huang would result in a single instant of destruction from Jiang Lin. Conversely, against magical beasts, Jiang Lin's offensive power began to decline, but his defensive strength began to shine.

"Let's go, there is magma below, and the breath of the Fallen Heart Flame is right below." Jiang Lin stood at the disc in the center of the bottom floor of the refining tower, squatted down, pressed the disc below, his arm muscles swelled, and a rumbling sound was heard. The disc began to slowly rotate under Jiang Lin's violence, and a terrifying heat wave hit instantly!

A shield of cyan flames instantly rose from Xiao Yan's body, isolating the terrifying heat wave from outside. Meanwhile, a faint layer of illusory lotus energy rose from Jiang Lin's body, protecting his clothes. Jiang Lin's physical strength was formidable, but his clothes weren't as burn-resistant. He didn't want to constantly use his Dou Qi robes, so he decided to use some Dou Qi to protect his clothes.

As Jiang Lin pushed, a deep black passage appeared under the disc, and at the end of the black passage was a red world!

"The bottom of the Burning Heaven Refining Tower leads directly to magma. In order to prevent any unusual movements below, I have never gone down to explore it before." Jiang Lin stood at the edge of the steaming and somewhat distorted passage, looking down at the magma world below, his spiritual eyes behind the black-patterned mask flashing with an inexplicable light.

During his time at Canaan Academy, Jiang Lin did not enter the magma world below. It was not because he was not curious, but because he was worried that he would encounter something inevitable down there, which would trigger some changes that he could not control in advance.

Just as the Qinghai Venerable of the Soul Palace had said to him not long ago, before he had sufficient strength, there were many things that he wouldn't be able to grasp, even if he discovered them. In that case, he could prioritize improving his own realm, and then, once he had sufficient strength in all aspects, explore those places that clearly held great secrets.

In Jiang Lin's spiritual perception, underneath the Burning Heaven Refining Tower, there were abnormal energy fluctuations that Jiang Lin was not willing to open in advance.

Many times, because the effect of the spiritual eyes was too strange, and Jiang Lin would have a burst of inspiration from time to time, Jiang Lin would actively choose not to look at certain things that he felt he could not grasp, rather than turning a blind eye.

No one can truly turn a blind eye, because many things are like a black box. When you don't look at it, everything is fine. As soon as you look at it, your thinking begins to be affected, thus affecting your future.

Just like Xiao Yan’s Tushe Ancient Jade, even if that thing was placed in front of Jiang Lin now, Jiang Lin would not even look at it.

In the past, Jiang Lin thought that he was lucky. If he was unlucky, sometimes a great inspiration might make him face the abyss, thus triggering some unpredictable horror beyond life and death.

"Come on, follow me." Without waiting for Xiao Yan to say anything, Jiang Lin jumped directly from the black passage, falling into the red magma in an instant and disappearing. Xiao Yan saw this without hesitation. He first put away Cai Lin, then raised a green Dou Qi shield, jumped down, and disappeared into the boiling magma.

"Brother Lin, let's go..." Xiao Yan opened his eyes and adjusted himself to the crimson underground magma world. Just when he was about to ask Jiang Lin how to get there, he heard Jiang Lin's soul transmission from afar, "This way, the Fallen Heart Flame is right below."

After adapting himself, Xiao Yan swam quickly downwards following Jiang Lin's voice. Soon, he saw a star-like brilliant flame in the red magma world, like a star, blooming with bright light in the magma world.

"Ah, this? So fast?" Xiao Yan was stunned when he saw this. He thought it would take a long time to find the Fallen Heart Flame in the underground magma world, but... it's just like this?

"Deep in the magma directly beneath the Burning Heaven Refining Tower lies the location of the Fallen Heart Flame. The space here is deformed by the high temperatures, so it cannot be calculated using external spatial coordinates." Jiang Lin, holding up his Fire Lotus Qi, stood before the Fallen Heart Flame burning with terrifying starfire. With a serious expression, he explained to Xiao Yan, who was rushing towards him, "It's difficult for a normal person to enter this magma world from beneath the Burning Heaven Refining Tower through normal means. Therefore, finding this Fallen Heart Flame requires a lot of effort."

"Only when the Burning Heaven Refining Tower is activated (when the refining chamber begins to condense the seed fire) will it have a chance to attract this mature form of the Fallen Heart Flame to this area. Otherwise, this entire magma world will become the Fallen Heart Flame's activity space."

"I see." Xiao Yan swam to Jiang Lin's side, looking at the Fallen Heart Flame in front of him, and his mind became clear. Through Jiang Lin's explanation, he understood that if the Fallen Heart Flame could not be located through the Burning Heaven Refining Tower, then others who wanted to see the Fallen Heart Flame's true form would really have to take their chances in the underground magma world.

For the Fallen Heart Flame, the entire magma world can be regarded as a barrier. There is some kind of restriction against the Fallen Heart Flame in the Burning Heaven Refining Tower. Once it is opened, it will attract the Fallen Heart Flame in the underground magma world. This is why Xiao Yan discovered the real body of the Fallen Heart Flame as soon as he came down.

"Are we going to absorb it now?" Xiao Yan felt that the speed of finding it was a bit too fast, and he was not mentally prepared yet.

"What's wrong? You look strange. Did you discover something?" Yao Chen's voice echoed in Xiao Yan's body. Xiao Yan's attention was on the Fallen Heart Flame, while Yao Chen's attention was mostly on Jiang Lin. He had noticed that Jiang Lin's condition was a little off since he came down.
