After sending away that Dou Wang, Lin Feng and Xiao Yixian imdiately headed toward the city's west gate.
"Lin Feng, you felt it too, right?"
After walking a short distance, Xiao Yixian suddenly leaned closer to him, speaking softly.
"Mm, should be that low seventh-tier alchemist… and the leader of those so-called Earth-Splitting Two Fiends."
Lin Feng's vast soul force quietly swept over the group of Dou Zong not far behind them, and his expression grew slightly grim.
Hearing this, Xiao Yixian's delicate brows furrowed.
The Earth-Splitting Two Fiends—those were the husband and wife who had been selling Soul Spirit Fruit earlier.
Both of them were already Nine-Star Dou Zong in strength. Not to ntion, there were quite a few other experts in the mix.
If it really ca to a fight, with Tian Huo Zun Zhe currently unable to battle…just the two of them alone might not necessarily be able to handle so many people.
Her pretty face then showed a faint, bitter smile as she shook her head. "Truly worthy of being called one of Central Plains' chaotic lands… even buying a few things in the marketplace gets you targeted by so many."
Lin Feng gave a similar look in response.
Lately, it felt like every ti he bought sothing, he ended up having to fight for it. These local expert… really had no manners.
After a brief mont of thought, Lin Feng gave a short, cold hum. "Let's change the plan—better to raise our combat strength first before leaving the city."
He just so happened to have quite a few Dou Zong corpses on hand, and plenty of Rank 7 magic cores as well.
Not to ntion, earlier in the market he'd also bought several gold-attribute Rank 7 magic cores and beast blood, perfect for body tempering.
Once he refined those corpses into Earth Demon Puppets, and followed up with several rounds of dicinal liquid body refinent…his strength would rise enough that he wouldn't need to worry about Dou Zong robbers anymore.
Those people relied on their familiarity with this region to call in a group to deal with him—but with the Sky Demon Puppet Technique, likely the last surviving ancient puppet art on the entire Dou Qi Continent, he could create an army of Earth Demon Puppets that knew neither pain nor fear.
Compared to those people, his advantage was obvious. And unlike a gang of loose allies, his puppets would be more reliable… and more relentless.
If it ca down to a real fight… hmph.
"I was thinking the sa thing," Xiao Yixian nodded slightly in agreent.
Inside the city, that crowd of people probably wouldn't dare make too big a scene. And she could use this ti to absorb more of those poison pills, raising her Dou Qi level.
Without further delay, the two turned back and casually picked a rather luxurious inn along the street, booking rooms.
"The two of them suddenly changed direction—probably ans they've already noticed us."
Watching Lin Feng and Xiao Yixian walk into the inn, a hunched old man in the shadows spoke, his eyes full of killing intent, teeth clenched.
"Didn't expect these two to have such sharp senses… but for now, all we can do is wait."
The old man among the Earth-Splitting Two Fiends frowned deeply, speaking with a trace of helplessness.
While the Western Desolate Region was indeed chaotic, if so many Dou Zong started brawling inside the city, it would definitely draw the attention of the City Lord's Mansion.
By then, they might walk away empty-handed. The others present clearly understood the sa thing. So, after so grumbling, they still had no choice but to endure patiently.
As for Lin Feng and Xiao Yixian, wanting a quiet environnt, they each took separate rooms.
Then, they both got to work.
Lin Feng entered the cultivation room attached to his own quarters, then swung the heavy stone door shut behind him.
After a mont's thought, he decided to first raise his Steel Body a little.
With a light flick of his finger, his storage ring flashed with a faint glow, and…that familiar white mutton-fat jade bathing barrel appeared out of thin air before him.
Imdiately after, Lin Feng skillfully began preparing the dicinal liquid required for body tempering.
Once the preparations were complete, he lightly leapt and landed inside. While he imrsed himself in cultivation, several days passed in the blink of an eye.
All of the materials he had bought earlier were now completely used up. Lin Feng slowly opened his tightly shut eyes, glancing at the faint golden hue covering his skin.
His brows furrowed slightly. "It seems my Myriad Steel Tempering Technique has already hit a bottleneck. Even after absorbing several batches of dicinal liquid, the improvent is rather minimal."
Only now did he realize that he had underestimated the difficulty of cultivating the physical body.
At this rate, he didn't know how long it would take to upgrade from the Thousand Steel Body to the Myriad Steel Body.
"Sigh… forget it. I'll just refine the extra Dou Zong corpses into Earth Demon Puppets first."
Letting out a faint sigh, Lin Feng jumped out of the mutton-fat jade barrel and stored it back into his storage ring. Then, he took out thirteen corpses along with the corresponding number of jade bottles.
Inside those jade bottles were the souls of these people.
Among the corpses, three belonged to the Bone Transforming Gate—two Six-Star Dou Zong elders and one Three-Star Dou Zong elder.
There was also Granny Yin, the Five-Star and Six-Star Dou Zong who had been slain by Old Chan Chu.
In addition, there were six corpses of One-Star to Three-Star Dou Zong who had been killed by others in the forest within Lue Feng Zun Zhe's space while fighting over various treasures.
As for the last corpse—it was that Old Ground Demon Ghost, who had been discarded by Tian Huo Zun Zhe.
Next, according to the strength of each corpse, Lin Feng selected a magic core of matching rank.
Of course, when choosing the cores, he deliberately avoided fire-attribute and gold-attribute ones.
After all, those two types of magic cores still had other uses for him. Then, Lin Feng's palm clenched slightly, and erald-green flas surged out from his hand.
With a flick of his finger, the Heavenly Fla shot forward at high speed, instantly engulfing two Five-Star Dou Zong-level corpses lying on the stone platform.
Under his precise control, the corpses slowly floated upward, eventually stopping in midair.
The fla's temperature was kept at a particularly delicate balance—hot enough to burn away the corpse's lingering death aura, yet not so hot as to destroy it.
After the refinent was complete, Lin Feng once again flicked his fingers.
Two bursts of force shot out abruptly.
They struck the corpses' chests and foreheads, each opening a fist-sized hole—just the right size for inserting the soul and magic core.
With that done, he reached for the jade bottles before him, taking out the two souls. He then used the Heavenly Fla to burn away the remaining consciousness from those souls.
When the process was finished, he gave a gentle toss.
The hazy, bewildered soul transford into a black qi-dragon, which shot like lightning into the hole in the corpse's forehead.
Seeing the two successfully rge, Lin Feng took out the tough tals stored in his storage ring and began refining them.
