”Sigh, fine.”

Hearing that, Ye Zhong realized there wasn’t much he could do to stop those people.

He could only sigh helplessly, take the scroll, and turn to leave. However, he had barely taken a few steps before he suddenly stopped.

”Oh right, I almost forgot.”

Patting his forehead, Ye Zhong turned back to Lin Feng and said, ”Tian Huo Zun Zhe who left earlier has returned. He’s in the front courtyard right now.”

”Oh? That old man finally came back? He’s been wandering outside for so long that I thought he got lost out there.”

Hearing that the old man had returned, Lin Feng couldn’t help feeling pleasantly surprised. After all, back when he was still weak, that old man had helped him more than once.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng nodded and said, ”Alright, I’ll head over now.”

With that, he turned and walked toward the front courtyard. As for Ye Zhong, he left to gather medicinal ingredients.

”Elder Yao, you’ve been enjoying yourself outside, huh? Your strength’s already reached Six-Star Dou Zun.”

When Lin Feng arrived at the front courtyard, he saw Tian Huo Zun Zhe sitting with Xiao Yixian and the other two women, enthusiastically recounting his experiences from the past months. Lin Feng couldn’t help but chuckle.

Under the perception of his late-stage Spirit Realm soul power, Elder Yao’s current strength was laid bare before him.

”Sigh, it’s all thanks to my accumulated foundation. If I had to cultivate step by step, I wouldn’t have advanced this fast. After all, a Dou Zun isn’t like a Dou Zong—each bit of progress takes enormous effort.”

Tian Huo Zun Zhe waved his hand as he spoke.

But the next moment, when he sensed the immense soul pressure radiating from Lin Feng, his expression changed in shock. ”Kid, how did your soul power increase so much? It was still at the Mortal Realm before, but now it’s far stronger than mine!”

If Lin Feng had merely broken through to Dou Zun or entered the early Spirit Realm, Elder Yao wouldn’t have been surprised.

After all, when he left, Lin Feng was already at the peak of Dou Zong and Mortal Realm. He also had plenty of treasures that could help him break through to Dou Zun and advance his soul to the Spirit Realm.

But now, Lin Feng’s soul power not only reached the Spirit Realm—it completely surpassed his own. That kind of terrifying speed was something even Elder Yao found hard to believe.

”Hehe, that’s all thanks to the Hall of Souls’s generosity.”

Lin Feng didn’t bother hiding it. With a sly grin, he leaned closer and quietly explained what had happened.

Hearing his story, Tian Huo Zun Zhe immediately understood the situation. Thinking of what his old friends had told him about that colossal power, he could only shake his head. ”Kid, you really are bold.”

After wandering outside for so long, he knew exactly how terrifying that organization was. Yet this brat had the guts to steal right from the tiger’s mouth. His courage truly knew no bounds.

”I didn’t have much choice. You, as the former master of the Fallen Heart Flame, should know how difficult it is to collect souls. If I were to gather them one by one on my own, it’d take me decades—maybe even centuries—to reach this level.”

Lin Feng shook his head with a helpless smile.

If he’d had another option, he wouldn’t have risked attacking the Hall of Souls—that massive and terrifying existence. Especially since behind them stood the true number one clan on the Dou Qi Continent—the Hun Clan.

If they ever marked him, he’d be finished for sure.

”Alright, enough about that.”

Tian Huo Zun Zhe waved his hand. Then, he took out two jade boxes from his ring and tossed them to Lin Feng.

”These two portions of Bodhisattvasattva Body Transformation Saliva weren’t easy to find. I’m giving them to you.”

”Oh, not bad, Elder Yao! You actually managed to find two portions.”

Seeing the two jade boxes filled with a thick, emerald-green liquid, Lin Feng’s eyes lit up in delight. Thanks to his and his companions’ efforts, they had already gathered eight Bodhisattvasattva Seeds. Now, with these two added in, they had a total of ten.

Ten Bodhisattva Seeds—such value could probably only be traded for a ninth-tier Treasure Pill or a Heaven Class cultivation technique or Dou Technique!

The few women nearby couldn’t help but show faint smiles of delight when they saw Lin Feng receive two more portions of Bodhisattvasattva Body Transformation Saliva. After all, they all knew the true secret behind that miraculous essence.

”Hehe, in that case, I won’t disturb your little chat anymore.”

Saying so, Lin Feng waved his hand and stored away the two floating jade boxes in his palm. However, just as he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something—he couldn’t let Tian Huo Zun Zhe come back empty-handed.

Controlling his storage ring with a thought, Lin Feng took out an exquisitely crafted jade bottle and tossed it to Elder Yao.

As he did, he explained, ”Inside the bottle is a seven-colored eighth-tier Pill. I don’t have many left, so consider it payment for your hard work.”

With that, Lin Feng quickly turned and left the courtyard.

Tian Huo Zun Zhe, hearing his words, was instantly startled. He hurriedly caught the jade bottle with both hands, as though afraid it would fall. Right away, he pulled out the stopper and peered inside.

The moment he sensed the rich and boundless medicinal energy emanating from within, his eyes widened in shock.

Turning toward Lin Feng’s fading figure, he muttered under his breath, ”That brat—how could he just throw away a treasure like this so casually? What if it broke?”

Muttering to himself, he quickly replaced the stopper and carefully stored the jade bottle back into his ring. The women nearby couldn’t help but giggle quietly at his reaction.

If Tian Huo Zun Zhe knew that the precious seven-colored eighth-tier pill he was treating like a priceless treasure had actually been obtained by Lin Feng in exchange for an low-level Dou Zun Sky Demon Puppet, who knows what kind of expression he would show?

Time passed swiftly, and in the blink of an eye, several days slipped by.

Under the countless gazes filled with anticipation, the long-awaited start of the Pill Gathering drew ever closer. During this period, Ye Zhong had mobilized every connection he could.

However, since the medicinal ingredients Lin Feng required were all exceptionally rare, even after days of effort, he managed to gather only about sixty percent of them—those that were relatively less precious.

When the first ray of morning sunlight pierced through the darkness on the tenth day, spilling golden light across the vast Holy Pill City, the entire city instantly erupted with excitement!

The beginning of the Pill Gathering meant that Holy Pill City would once again become the center of the continent’s attention.

Throughout the Central Plains, whether it was alchemists or ordinary cultivators, everyone’s eyes turned toward this city—waiting to see who would be the one to stand tall at the very end.

After all, whoever could rise above the countless alchemy geniuses from across the Dou Qi Continent would undoubtedly earn eternal fame!

History had proven that every champion of the Pill Gathering, without exception, went on to leave a glorious mark in the annals of the continent.

It was precisely because of that legacy that the title of Pill Gathering Champion carried such immense weight—its value magnified countless times over.

To leave one’s name shining in the grand history of the Dou Qi Continent—such temptation was too great. Very few young people could ever resist it.
