**

Along the way, the floor of the room was almost completely destroyed, covered in deep cracks.

So crystal display cases had been shattered by the ice blades, their surfaces left as smooth as mirrors.

Although it seed like a long ti had passed, in reality, from the mont Hai Bodong gathered his Dou Technique to the instant he launched his attack, only a blink of an eye had gone by.

Xiao Cai, looking at the oncoming storm of ice blades, pursed her lips disdainfully and charged straight ahead.

"Is this person insane? Charging in like that—no matter how strong a Dou Wang is, they're bound to suffer so damage!"

Watching Xiao Cai approach without using any Dou Techniques, Hai Bodong was utterly shocked.

"Mystic Ice Thorn Wall!"

Feeling uneasy about Xiao Cai's reckless approach, Hai Bodong imdiately reinforced his defense with a loud shout.

Thick white mist rapidly gathered, quickly condensing into a solid ice wall more than three ters wide.

Moreover, the surface of the ice wall was densely covered with long, sharp ice spikes.

It was easy to imagine that if soone crashed into it head-on, the consequences would be extrely unpleasant.

With this level of preparation, Hai Bodong was confident that even a Dou Wang would suffer and be forced to retreat.

"Crack!"

Suddenly, the sharp sound of ice breaking echoed throughout the shop.

Then, to Hai Bodong's utter disbelief—

Xiao Cai had effortlessly smashed through several ice blades and erged from his Mystic Ice Whirl Slash.

In the blink of an eye, she had already reached his side.

Realizing that sothing was terribly wrong, Hai Bodong hurriedly tried to reinforce his Dou Technique.

Unfortunately, while his combat instincts remained sharp, his Dou Qi level was still only at Dou Ling, far inferior to the Dou Wang-level Xiao Cai.

With a loud explosion, his Mystic Ice Thorn Wall suddenly shattered.

Then, before he could react, he felt sothing like a whip strike his head. A sharp pain shot through his skull—

And the next mont, everything went black.

Seeing that the task was done, Xiao Cai flickered and vanished.

In the next second, she reappeared in front of Lin Feng.

"How did it go? Is it done?"

Seeing Xiao Cai return, Lin Feng imdiately asked.

Although Hai Bodong's shop was built from special materials that blocked his spiritual perception, he had more or less guessed the outco.

After all, Hai Bodong was only a Dou Ling right now—there was no way he could match a Dou Wang-level Heaven Swallowing Python.

Just as Lin Feng had expected, Xiao Cai nodded and quickly shed her cumberso disguise, reverting to her small snake form.

"Well done."

Lin Feng put away the disguise props and took out the Blazing Fla Vine, tossing it to Xiao Cai.

Then, activating his Low-Grade Black Class Ghostly Divine Steps, he swiftly leaped through the hole that Xiao Cai had smashed open.

Once inside the shop, Lin Feng scanned the surroundings—

The place was already in ruins.

The floor was covered in cracks, and the furniture and shelves had been smashed into pieces.

Walking over to a pile of maps, Lin Feng casually flipped through the yellowed scrolls.

A faint musty sll wafted toward him, making him frown slightly.

After searching for a mont, his hand trembled slightly as he pulled out a palm-sized fragnt of an ancient map from the pile of tattered maps.

"Hehe, the fragnt is in my hands! If I rember correctly, the other half should be on Hai Bodong, right?"

Spreading the fragnt open, his fingers trembled slightly with excitent. Then, he swiftly stored it in his storage ring and walked toward the inner room.

Inside, the situation was just as chaotic as the outer room.

Inside the dimly lit room, Lin Feng's eyes swept around and soon landed on an old man leaning against the wall, unconscious. That should be the Ice Emperor, Hai Bodong.

Decades ago, this old man was a Five-Star Dou Huang. Unfortunately, he recklessly ventured into the Tagore Desert.

In the end, he encountered dusa. Although he managed to escape by sheer luck, he paid a trendous price—his strength was sealed at the Dou Ling level.

Lin Feng squatted beside the old man, grabbed his hand, and stripped off the storage ring from his finger, tightly gripping it in his palm. Then, his soul perception quickly penetrated inside.

Instantly, a space several tis larger than his own storage ring appeared in his perception.

Scanning the items stored inside, he felt his excitent rising.

He passed over Black Class techniques, gold coin cards, sixth-tier pill formulas, and dicinal herbs.

Finally, at the deepest part of the ring, he sensed a fragnt of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Fla Map.

Lin Feng swiftly extracted it and held it in his palm.

Then, he took out the small map fragnt he had obtained earlier and pieced the two together.

Seeing them fit seamlessly, without the slightest discrepancy, his lips curled into a wide grin before storing them inside his storage ring.

Looking at the still-unconscious old man, Lin Feng turned to Xiao Cai, who had unknowingly arrived at his side.

He asked, "He didn't discover your true identity, did he?"

"Ying Ying!"

Xiao Cai quickly shook her head, patting her chest, as if to prove she wasn't that incompetent.

"In that case, let's not kill him."

Seeing this, Lin Feng dismissed the idea of killing Hai Bodong.

If the old man died, the Mitell Clan would definitely launch an extensive investigation to find the culprit.

But leaving Hai Bodong alive ant the old man himself wouldn't dare spread the word.

After all, if this matter got out, the great Ice Emperor would beco a laughingstock.

Moreover, Hai Bodong would most likely suspect a human Dou Wang, which made it unlikely anyone would suspect Lin Feng. But as for Xiao Yan… Heh.

Lin Feng picked up a suitably sized ice fragnt from the ground and carved out a small hole.

He placed the unsealing pill that dusa had given him into the hole.

Then, he roughly shoved the ice fragnt into Hai Bodong's mouth.

Once the ice lted, the pill would be swallowed into his stomach.

By the ti the pill took effect, Lin Feng would be long gone.

He carved a few large words into the floor before getting up and heading out.

Half a Day Later

As the ice in Hai Bodong's mouth lted, the pill slipped down his throat with the flowing water.

In an instant, countless tiny purple energy serpents surged from his abdon, rapidly spreading throughout his body.

This process continued for nearly half an hour. Then, the once-motionless Hai Bodong suddenly began to tremble violently.

Waves of ferocious energy ripples exploded from within him, spreading outward at an astonishing speed.

Everything in the vicinity—tables, walls—was instantly shattered into pieces.

The once-grand and ancient store was reduced to rubble in the blink of an eye.

Yet, the energy ripples continued to expand.

In an instant, the entire Rock Desert City was enveloped by this raging energy.

The worst casualties were the pedestrians near the store. Caught off guard, they were instantly crushed into blood mist under the terrifying pressure.

"Oh my god! What's happening!?"

The once lively and orderly Rock Desert City descended into panic and chaos.

BOOM!

With a deafening explosion, even the nearby cities outside Rock Desert City were alard by the terrifying aura.
