After entering his room and inspecting it thoroughly, Lin Feng finally relaxed and settled into the designated cultivation area.

Taking out Hai Bodong’s Storage Ring, he carefully began sorting through its contents.

For the past few days, Lin Feng had been on the back of a flying magic beast, and the poor soundproofing of the rooms had made him hesitant to go through his spoils.

He had worried that his excitement might cause a disturbance, drawing unnecessary attention from the people in the neighboring rooms.

Now that he had reached a safe place, he could finally examine the battle spoils inside this Storage Ring with ease.

As he organized the items, Lin Feng’s smile grew so wide that it nearly reached his ears.

As expected of the Grand Elder of a Mittel Clan—Hai Bodong’s collection was simply too vast.

There were eight High-Grade Black Class Dou Techniques alone!

Among them, several were Hai Bodong’s signature techniques, which would undoubtedly fetch an extremely high price if exchanged.

Of course, such things couldn’t be traded within the Jia Ma Empire.

As for Mid-Grade and Low-Grade Black Class Dou Techniques, there was an entire pile of them—so many that Lin Feng didn’t even bother counting.

However, there were far fewer Black Class Cultivation Technique.

One, in particular, caught his attention.

A High-Grade Black Class cultivation technique named Ice Cold Art was stored separately in a distinct space within Hai Bodong’s Storage Ring.

Lin Feng retrieved it, holding the white scroll in his hands as he examined it.

After a moment, he guessed that this was most likely the cultivation technique Hai Bodong had cultivated.

After toying with it for a bit, Lin Feng stored the Ice Cold Art away.

Next, he took out several gold cards and flipped through them, soon discovering one that stood out—a Purple-Gold Card of exceptional craftsmanship.

Such Purple-Gold Cards could only be used by cultivators at least at the Dou Wang level.

After totaling the balances on all the cards, Lin Feng found that they contained around three million gold coins.

He stored them in his Storage Ring before pulling out an ancient pill formula, his expression turning visibly excited.

His hands even trembled slightly.

Although Hai Bodong had only kept a single pill formula, its significance was immense.

It was the formula for a sixth-tier Pill—Breaking Adversity Pill!

Its value was comparable to that of an Earth Class Dou Technique!

Carefully storing the formula, Lin Feng checked the three sets of Breaking Adversity Pill ingredients and placed them alongside it.

Afterward, he discovered a considerable number of fourth-tier Pills and a few fifth-tier Pills.

As for the other miscellaneous items, Lin Feng wasn’t particularly interested. He merely gave them a quick glance before storing them away.

Having finished sorting through Hai Bodong’s Storage Ring, Lin Feng ran his fingers over another Storage Ring—the one containing the Green Lotus Core Flame.

After a moment’s thought, he began considering how to handle this Heavenly Flame.

He decided that when Jia Nan Academy began its admissions in six months, he would enroll.

Then, he would use the Heavenly Flame as a bargaining chip to strike a deal with Elder Huo, the peak fifth-tier Alchemist of the Alchemy Division.

With this trade, not only could he obtain Earth Class cultivation techniques and Dou Techniques, but in the future, if he acquired the Poison Pill Method,

When helping Xiao Yixian condense her Poison Pill, Elder Huo would likely be willing to lend him the Heavenly Flame for use.

After all, the primary reason he had gone through so much trouble to acquire a Heavenly Flame was for Xiao Yixian’s sake.

Thinking of the Heavenly Flame, Lin Feng took out the empty Green Colored Lotus Platform from his Storage Ring.

Looking at the eleven Green Lotus Seeds around it, he carefully removed each one and stored them in a jade bottle for preservation.

These lotus seeds were incredibly valuable, comparable to some fifth-tier Pills—a truly rare and precious treasure.

Once everything was properly stored, Lin Feng placed the Green Colored Lotus Platform on the ground and sat cross-legged upon it.

Then, he began cultivating.

He could already faintly sense the threshold of a Four-Star Dou Shi.

Originally, he had been confident in reaching Four-Star Dou Shi within half a month.

But after experiencing the Green Colored Lotus Platform’s effects firsthand, he was now certain—he would break through within a week at most!

While Lin Feng was cultivating, elsewhere, Hai Bodong was flying towards the Jia Ma Empire’s capital in a somewhat disheveled state.

At this moment, he was cursing the old monster of the Jia Ma royal family nonstop in his heart.

The moment they met, that old thing had given him such an overwhelming show of power.

If he, Hai Bodong, hadn’t been sealed for decades, he would definitely be a peak Dou Huang by now. Would he have fallen to such a state?

”Huh? There’s a battle between Dou Wang ahead.”

Sensing the fluctuation of Dou Qi coming from the front, Hai Bodong snapped out of his thoughts.

After hesitating for a moment, he flew towards the direction of the battle.

Yao Chen was controlling Xiao Yan’s body, unleashing Dou Wang-level combat strength.

”Octane Blast!”

A white flame surged over his fist, instantly incinerating the black-robed opponent’s sleeve before slamming fiercely into the face of a peak Rank 5 magic beast.

”Boom!”

With a deafening explosion, the Rank 5 magic beast was sent crashing to the ground, unconscious.

Yao Chen instinctively rubbed his chin before stepping up to the fallen beast. He controlled Xiao Yan’s arm, placing his palm against the beast’s abdomen.

His spirit dived into the beast’s body, and with a forceful pull, a cluster of Beast Flame was forcibly extracted.

The moment the flame appeared, the magic beast’s aura instantly weakened.

Judging from its condition, it had suffered significant damage.

”Master, is this the Beast Flame you were talking about? The one that can evolve my Flame Mantra?”

Seeing Yao Chen actually extract a flame from the beast’s body, Xiao Yan asked in surprise.

This was his first time learning that magic beasts could also contain flames within them.

Moreover, from the scorching heat emanating from it, Xiao Yan could tell that this Beast Flame was quite powerful.

”That’s right. This is a Beast Flame. Although its power cannot compare to a Heavenly Flame, it should be able to evolve your Flame Mantra.”

As he spoke, Yao Chen’s tone carried a hint of uncertainty.

After all, he had never cultivated this bizarre technique himself.

Moreover, this Beast Flame was only from a peak Rank 5 magic beast.

Speaking of Flame Mantra, Xiao Yan couldn’t help but grit his teeth.

Back when he went to the Tagore Desert, he had been full of expectations.

After arriving with Yao Chen, they had infiltrated deep into the Snake-People Clan’s territory.

After some effort, they managed to capture a Dou Wang-level black serpent man.

Using certain methods, they forced him to reveal that the Heavenly Flame had already been taken by the Heavenly Serpent Mansion.

However, their little kidnapping operation completely enraged the Snake-People Clan.

In the end, they even provoked four peak Dou Huang-level powerhouses from the Snake-People Clan, forcing Xiao Yan and Yao Chen to flee in a sorry state.

They were only able to escape thanks to those powerhouses being near the end of their lifespans and unwilling to make a move easily.

Otherwise, there was no way the two of them would have gotten away so easily.

After all that trouble, all they got was a piece of information about the Heavenly Flame.

Other than that, they had found nothing and wasted a huge amount of time.

Thinking of the Heavenly Flame in the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, Xiao Yan asked, ”Master, should we go to the Heavenly Serpent Mansion and steal the Heavenly Flame?”

”Are you trying to get yourself killed? Steal the Heavenly Flame from the Heavenly Serpent Mansion? Do you even know who they are?”

Hearing Xiao Yan’s ignorant and arrogant words, Yao Chen scolded him impatiently.

”Uh… I haven’t heard of them before. But Master, you now have Dou Huang-level combat strength. If we sneak in quietly and take it, shouldn’t we be able to get away unnoticed?”

Hearing Yao Chen’s response just now, Xiao Yan knew that the Heavenly Serpent Mansion wasn’t simple. However, thinking about how disgusting it was for Flame Mantra to start at Low-Grade Yellow Class, he was still unwilling to give up.
