"Lin Feng, you're finally out! The dicinal liquid you gave was incredibly effective. Every ti I cultivate in water mixed with that stuff, the water turns red like blood, and I can clearly feel the fire poison in my body fading rapidly."
Seeing Lin Feng walk out of the tower, Lin Yan hurriedly waved and shouted excitedly.
His face was filled with joy.
The problem that had troubled him for so long could now finally be cured completely.
For him, this was undoubtedly a piece of great news.
"Once you finish using these, the fire poison in your body should be completely eradicated."
Seeing his excitent, Lin Feng walked over with a light smile, took out two jade bottles from his storage ring, and tossed them over.
"Hand your Fire Crystal Card, I'll transfer the remaining fire energy points to you."
Lin Yan carefully stored the jade bottles away, then said, "Sure, I just ran out of fire energy points and was about to co find you."
As he tossed the card over, Lin Feng chuckled.
While transferring the fire energy points, Lin Yan grinned and said, "I calculated that your fire energy points would run out today, so I've been waiting here for you."
"Lin Feng, you've co out! Lin Yan—what are you doing here?"
Just as Lin Yan finished speaking, a small figure cloaked in purple suddenly zood over from the distance, asking curiously.
"Senior Sister Zi Yan!"
Seeing her, Lin Yan was startled and almost called out her nickna. But catching sight of her murderous purple eyes, he quickly corrected himself and greeted respectfully.
"Zi Yan, you're here too? Perfect. Help sell so pills. I've got to focus on cultivation and won't have ti to deal with that stuff."
Seeing Zi Yan, Lin Feng quickly asked her to help exchange pills for fire energy points.
"Huh?"
Zi Yan was montarily dumbfounded. She had just arrived and was already being assigned work?
Glancing at Lin Yan, who was cautiously standing nearby, she pointed at him and said, "You. Help him trade the pills for fire energy points."
"?"
Lin Yan looked around in confusion, then pointed at himself.
"Got a problem?"
Zi Yan clenched her small fist tightly, making cracking sounds, and narrowed her eyes as she questioned.
"No, no problem at all! Serving Senior Sister Zi Yan is my honor!"
Recalling how Zi Yan had once brutally beaten her challengers, Lin Yan instantly straightened up with a look of solemn determination, like a soldier prepared for battle.
Seeing that Zi Yan didn't want to go, Lin Feng turned to Lin Yan and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you run errands for free. Help trade these pills for fire energy points, and I'll reward you with so Ice Spirit Pills."
As he spoke, he took out a few jade bottles containing fourth-tier pills and Ice Spirit Pills and tossed them over.
"No problem! I'll take care of it right away. I'll have soone send them to Room Number One later."
Grinning at the sight of the reward, Lin Yan bolted away from the scene where the brute force queen was present.
"Lin Feng, where's Xiao Cai?"
With the annoyance gone, Zi Yan eagerly asked.
"Uh… Xiao Cai, Zi Yan's looking for you."
Seeing how urgently she wanted to find the little guy, Lin Feng took the Swallowing Heaven Python out from his sleeve and called to it.
As soon as she saw the little creature, Zi Yan grinned mischievously, picked it up, and flew off toward the forest, saying, "I found sothing you'll like. Let's go share it together."
"This girl…"
Watching the two tiny figures vanish into the distance, Lin Feng shook his head and turned to head back into the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
With his Dou Wang-level strength and the assistance of fire poison-resisting pills, even staying in there for a month straight wouldn't be an issue.
While he continued to cultivate, Zi Yan on the other side was busy coaxing the innocent Xiao Cai.
"Hehe, Xiao Cai, this is Core Quenching Body Milk that I went through a lot of trouble to get. Even Lin Feng doesn't have this—you've never seen it before, right?"
Zi Yan took out a jade bottle and shook it with a smirk.
"Ying ying~"
Seeing the half-bottle of tempering milk inside, the Swallowing Heaven Python's eyes sparkled as it coiled around her excitedly, looking very eager to please.
Seeing this reaction, Zi Yan's eyes glead with delight.
Just as she suspected.
Lin Feng had been too busy with his own affairs lately and hadn't told Xiao Cai about the tempering milk.
Glancing at the little guy who still refused to share his Birth Essence with her, Zi Yan rubbed her shoulder and said, "You want it? Sure… but for so reason, my shoulders have been feeling really sore lately."
"Ying ying~"
Understanding her hint, the little fellow hesitated briefly before blinking over behind her and gently patting her shoulders with its small tail.
Feeling the comfortable pressure, Zi Yan silently praised her own cleverness.
If she hadn't lured Xiao Cai out alone, she would've never managed to con the little guy like this.
After a while, Zi Yan waved the jade bottle in front of the Swallowing Heaven Python and said, "Ah, I'm suddenly feeling a bit thirsty."
The little guy imdiately darted off and returned monts later with a stone cup of clean spring water.
"Not bad. Keep it up. This Core Quenching Body Milk will be your reward."
After drinking the cool spring water, Zi Yan patted Xiao Cai's snake head and laughed proudly.
—One week later—
"Xiao Cai, where did you get this Core Quenching Body Milk?"
Looking at the tiny bit of Core Quenching Body Milk in the jade bottle, Lin Feng turned to the little guy who had snuck in to find him and asked curiously.
"Ying ying~"
With a soft chirp, Xiao Cai gestured with its tail, then looked at him expectantly with big purple eyes.
The aning was clear—this is good stuff, and the master should have it first.
Having spent so much ti with it, Lin Feng naturally understood and looked at it in disbelief.
"That Zi Yan girl actually shared this with you? Well, I did get so with her before, but I forgot to tell you. Want to drink so?"
As he spoke, Lin Feng took out a jade bottle from his storage ring, uncorked it, and placed it in front of her.
"Ying?"
Xiao Cai's pair of violet eyes widened sharply, staring at the jade bottle in disbelief.
She rubbed her eyes with her tail and looked again.
No mistake—this was a whole bottle full of Core Quenching Body Milk.
Then she recalled how she had worked hard as a servant for seven full days—practically shedding her snake skin—just to exchange for a small bottle of it.
Fury ignited in her eyes, as if it would burst forth the next second and burn down the entire Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
Whoosh!
In a flash of black before Lin Feng's eyes, Xiao Cai suddenly disappeared from his sight.
"Uh oh... Did Zi Yan co up with so crooked sche to ss with Xiao Cai again?"
Seeing the little one in such a rage, Lin Feng tugged the corner of his mouth and guessed aloud.
"When tempering dou qi, the violent fire-elent energy factor mixed within the Fallen Heart Fla really is terrifying. Luckily, I have this Green Colored Lotus Platform. Otherwise, even though I'm a Dou Wang expert, I would only be able to endure it for a while longer—ultimately, I still wouldn't be able to withstand it."
About a month later, Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes, now free of any red glow, and smiled excitedly.
Over the past month, aside from the brief monts when Lin Yan's people ca to deliver Fire Energy, during which he left the black stone platform for a while, he spent all his remaining ti cultivating.
This long period of cultivation had made his dou qi more refined and powerful.
However, about half a month ago, as the training ti increased, even with the aid of dicinal pills, he had absorbed quite a bit of fire poison, which beca a troubleso issue.
That was when he thought of the Green Colored Lotus Platform that had birthed the Green Lotus Core Fla.
Holding onto a 'might as well try' ntality, he used it—and the results were unexpectedly excellent.
From then on, all the violent fire-elent energy factors mixed within the Fallen Heart Fla were completely filtered out by the lotus seat.
The energy passing through the Green Colored Lotus Platform beca even purer.
With his last bit of concern gone, he fully devoted himself to cultivation each day.
Coming back to himself, Lin Feng promptly put away the Green Colored Lotus Platform, then walked out of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
The mont he stepped out, Zi Yan imdiately ran up to greet him.
Next to her, however, was Xiao Cai, clearly giving him the cold shoulder.
Ever since the little one found out she'd been tricked, she had stord off to confront Zi Yan.
But she hadn't expected that little troublemaker to have vanished long ago, so she had to return resentfully.
However, half a month ago, while Zi Yan was out searching the forest for herbs, she was discovered by Xiao Cai. The two had a fierce fight.
In the end, Zi Yan was beaten badly and had no choice but to admit defeat in disgrace.
After all, the soul of the Heaven Swallowing Python had already begun slowly rging with dusa.
Xiao Cai could now channel so of dusa's power. With such a boost, there was no way Zi Yan could win.
"Alright, Xiao Cai, you already gave her a good beating. Let it go now, okay?"
Seeing the situation, Lin Feng found it rather amusing. He gently patted the little one's head and chuckled.
"Ying ying~"
Xiao Cai turned her head away and burrowed into his sleeve.
Clearly, she still didn't want anything to do with the deceptive Zi Yan.
Shaking his head, Lin Feng looked at Zi Yan and said, "Let's head back to the Black-Corner Region for now. We've been gone for so long—if we don't go back soon, the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion might really fall into chaos."
"Alright."
Zi Yan nodded, and the two of them dashed off in the direction they had co from.
After passing through the spatial barrier again, Lin Feng once more arrived outside the Inner Academy.
Letting out a light breath, Lin Feng turned to Zi Yan and said, "Let's go back to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion first. I have sothing to ask you to help with later—the reward is generous."
"Deal!"
The mont she heard "reward," Zi Yan's eyes lit up, and she eagerly nodded, accepting the task.
"Great, let's go."
With that, Lin Feng shot off in the direction of Spirit Mountain City.
Zi Yan quickly followed behind.
Back at the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, Lin Feng imdiately summoned the managent team and began asking questions.
"During the ti I was in seclusion, there haven't been any problems in Spirit Mountain City, right?"
Hearing this, Niu Tuo from the Security Division was the first to step forward, cupping his hands and reporting, "Reporting to the Pavilion Master, everything in Spirit Mountain City has been peaceful recently. Whenever a few small fry tried to stir up trouble, we dealt with them swiftly."
Imdiately after, the other Division heads also stepped forward to report their respective statuses.
"Pavilion Master, here are the herbs you asked to collect. Over this period, I managed to gather twelve portions in total."
After his report, Wang An from the Treasure-Seeking Division took out a red, low-grade storage ring and presented it.
