Every day, this Soul Gathering Technique indeed allowed his soul power to slowly approach the peak of the seventh-tier.

But this somewhat sluggish pace clearly could no longer satisfy Lin Feng.

After all, at this moment his soul power had already stepped into the late stage of the seventh-tier.

The Soul Gathering Technique at High-Grade Yellow Class was already falling behind him. And now, the appearance of this Low-Grade Earth Class soul cultivation technique, Forging Soul, Refining Spirit, happened to strike right at his needs.

”After cultivating this Forging Soul, Refining Spirit, my soul power should be able to reach the peak of the seventh-tier even faster. By then, I’ll be able to use Lue Feng Zun Zhe’s soul body to assault the barrier of the Spirit Realm.”

Clutching the black scroll tightly in his hand, Lin Feng muttered excitedly to himself.

After a long while, when he snapped back to his senses, his gaze once again fell upon the scroll in his hand.

”Forging Soul, Refining Spirit! Low-Grade Earth Class soul cultivation technique. This technique can absorb soul qi, and through certain methods, condense it into a great soul hammer to strike against the cultivator’s soul. Although the process is somewhat painful, it can strengthen the toughness of the soul and temper its resilience—this is Forging Soul.”

”And during the Forging Soul process, the soul qi within the cultivator’s soul will also become more condensed under the hammer’s strikes. Furthermore, the cultivator can at this moment actively circulate the method, drawing soul qi into the hammerhead, allowing it to temper and merge that qi into the cultivator’s soul. This process is called Refining Spirit.”

After reading through the introduction, Lin Feng’s eyes instantly lit up.

”This Earth Class soul cultivation technique is truly in a different league compared to the Yellow Class technique. Just from this effect alone, it already surpasses the technique I’m cultivating now by more than a hundredfold.”

He gently stroked the scroll in his hand, smiling with delight.

But thinking that he had only explored half of the storage ring, Lin Feng carefully placed it back in its original place, and continued exploring the space within the ring.

Before long, Lin Feng’s soul perception reached the medicinal ingredients section.

Looking around, dazzling rare medicinal herbs filled the wooden shelves here.

What shocked him even more was that not a single herb on these shelves was of a value below that of a mid seventh-tier pill.

Moreover, the medicinal potency within these herbs was all extremely well-preserved, with none showing signs of their medicinal power having dissipated.

Seeing these medicinal herbs that were so rare in the outside world, Lin Feng was overjoyed and quickly began to sort them.

”These hundred or so herbs… nearly half of them are for refining eighth-tier pills. This collection is simply terrifying.”

After organizing the herbs, Lin Feng couldn’t help but click his tongue in amazement.

Although his current level as an alchemist had not yet reached the eighth-tier, thanks to Han Feng and Dan Yitian’s medicinal notes and records, he was able to recognize all of these things.

Thus, he fully understood just how precious such a vast collection of herbs was. If any seventh-tier, or even an eighth-tier alchemist were to find out, those alchemists would no doubt turn into bandits on the spot and rob him clean.

”Still, this Lue Feng Zun Zhe was a wind attribute cultivator, yet he collected so many herbs. I suppose the vast majority of them must have been plundered from that unfortunate six-colored eighth-tier alchemist.”

After the initial joy, Lin Feng analyzed calmly.

”Forget it, figuring this out is pointless. Better to keep searching for treasures.”

Shaking his head, he once again extended his soul perception deeper.

”I wonder what surprises await in the pill section.”

Staring at the words above the wooden shelf, Lin Feng let out a faint laugh.

Right after, he walked toward another wooden shelf where a large number of jade bottles were arranged.

”Low Seventh-tier… mid… high.”

Gazing at the pill classifications written above, Lin Feng’s soul perception followed along the length of the shelf, step by step moving forward.

He was eager to see what the highest-tier pill that Lue Feng Zun Zhe had collected would turn out to be.

”This is… an eighth-tier pill?!”

Not long after, his soul perception suddenly paused, and he exclaimed in shock.

Then, his joy burst forth as he hurried to the wooden shelf and looked at one of the seven jade bottles placed there.

”An three-colored eighth-tier pill!”

Reading the tiny words on the jade bottle, Lin Feng’s face lit up with delight as he reached out and carefully picked it up.

However, the moment the jade bottle landed in his hand, several muffled bangs resounded from inside.

The jade bottle in his hand also trembled violently a few times.

”The spirituality of this eighth-tier pill really is incomparable to a seventh-tier one. This little fellow actually knows it’s been brought into the outside world and is trying to escape.”

Looking at the jade bottle that had settled back into calm, Lin Feng chuckled and shook his head, sighing in admiration.

”Fortunately, someone set a sealing mark on the bottle, otherwise if this thing had gotten out, it really would’ve been troublesome.”

Thinking about the pill’s formidable strength, he immediately abandoned the idea of releasing it to examine more closely.

After all, he wasn’t the alchemist who refined it, and therefore lacked the special suppressive authority over it.

If he released it carelessly and this three-colored eighth-tier pill managed to escape, he would probably cough up blood in regret.

After all, even a Dou Zun expert would be willing to bow their head and become someone’s subordinate in exchange for such a pill.

Its value was beyond imagination.

After putting the jade bottle back in place, Lin Feng continued to examine the other six jade bottles.

He discovered that within this storage ring, there were altogether four three-colored eighth-tier pills, two four-colored eighth-tier pills, and one five-colored eighth-tier pill.

With these pills in front of him, he nearly couldn’t close his mouth from grinning.

The wealth Lue Feng Zun Zhe had accumulated was simply unimaginable.

Even some low eighth-tier alchemists might not necessarily possess such a rich foundation. And now, these treasures had fallen into the hands of him, a mere Dou Zong.

”What a pity… it looks like most of the other pills were consumed by Lue Feng Zun Zhe. Otherwise, a storage ring belonging to a six-colored eighth-tier alchemist wouldn’t only have a measly seven eighth-tier pills left.”

Thinking about the pills Lue Feng Zun Zhe had already used up, Lin Feng’s face revealed a trace of heartache.

If that man hadn’t consumed so many of these pills, then his current harvest would definitely have included many more eighth-tier treasures.

”Sigh, no wonder when Tian Huo Zun Zhe advanced to Dou Zun, Lue Feng Zun Zhe was able to break through continuously from a Three-Change Dou Zun all the way into a Five-Change Dou Zun. So it turns out it was the result of consuming a massive number of eighth-tier pills.”

But when he thought of how abundant his gains this time already were, Lin Feng silently chastised himself for being too greedy.

To obtain so many treasures was already a stroke of tremendous fortune. And yet here he was, still dissatisfied.

After giving himself a stern reminder in his heart, he immediately began examining the prescription section.

”Even eighth-tier pill formulas… there are more than twenty scrolls. That unlucky six-colored eighth-tier alchemist really was wealthy.”

Reaching the last wooden shelf in the prescription area, Lin Feng looked at the multicolored scrolls upon it, his expression filled with joyous astonishment as he clicked his tongue.
