”Xiao Yan, I was worried earlier that you might not be able to persuade him. I didn’t expect you to do this well.”

Inside the storage ring, while quietly interfering with the other party’s senses, Xuan Kongzi spoke with relief.

”It was just a small trick. In the end, this world only respects strength.”

Hearing this, Xiao Yan shook his head with a bitter smile. If his strength were sufficient, he wouldn’t need to bow and scrape everywhere for help.

”Hehe, don’t be too modest. With this kind of awareness and ability, you’re already outstanding enough to look down on most of your peers.”

At this moment, even Tian Leizi, who always wore a stern expression, revealed a faint smile. He had known Xiao Yan for a long time.

Whether it was perseverance or mental strength, Xiao Yan far surpassed most people of his age. Looking across the entire Dou Qi Continent, aside from the special members of the Ancient Clans, very few young people could compare to Xiao Yan’s current accomplishments.

Especially considering that Xiao Yan had come all the way from the barren Northwestern Region, step by step, until he reached Central Plains. Thinking of the Northwestern Region reminded Tian Leizi of Lin Feng, who had also come from there.

A trace of helplessness flashed across his dark face.

”Sometimes… having too many geniuses in one era isn’t necessarily a good thing.”

With that thought, Tian Leizi couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

While he was lost in thought, Xuan Kongzi turned back to Xiao Yan, ”Alright, everything here has been resolved. We need to return and handle the Pill Tower’s matters. You focus on healing.”

Right after speaking, the space beside him rippled slightly. The fluctuating energy grew stronger and stronger. Finally, an invisible wave completely engulfed his figure, making him vanish from Xiao Yan’s sight.

Xuan Yi and Tian Leizi, who had been startled back to focus by Xuan Kongzi’s words, also disappeared from the room.

”Lin Feng… I want to see how you plan to control his Bone Chilling Flame once I rescue my master and have him personally reclaim it. All your running around… in the end, it’ll be for nothing. And I, Xiao Yan, will be the final winner!”

After the Three Leaders of the Pill Tower left, a thick killing intent flashed across Xiao Yan’s eyes as he spoke coldly.

Toward Lin Feng—who had stolen his master’s ring and Heavenly Flame—he now hated him down to the bone. Through all kinds of methods, he had finally gathered so many powerful people.

As long as Hall of Souls hadn’t locked his master inside the Heaven Hall, he was confident he could rescue him. When the time came, with a peak eighth-tier alchemist personally helping him, he didn’t believe he still wouldn’t be able to deal with Lin Feng.

But thinking about his current injuries, Xiao Yan pushed away those distracting thoughts.

He brushed his ring, took out a healing pill, and swallowed it. Then he began circulating his Dou Qi, guiding the thick medicinal energy quickly dissolving inside his body toward his organs that had been ruined by poison.

While Xiao Yan was fully focused on healing, Lin Feng—after flying inside the spatial wormhole for several days—finally reached the exit. Seeing the bright white halo ahead, he accelerated again.

His figure turned into a streak of light too fast for the eye to follow. Under the envious gazes of those around him, filled with admiration for the strong, he passed through the light circle in an instant.

The moment he left the wormhole, the scenery suddenly changed. The eternal silver passage disappeared, replaced by an enormous city. About ten li away from the wormhole exit stood a massive city gate more than a hundred meters wide.

Carved on the city wall above the gate were two ancient, powerful characters: ”Dan City.” They emitted a faint glow.

Even more astonishing, just looking at those two characters made one feel an urge to kneel and worship.

”It seems these words were carved by a Dou Sheng who was also a ninth-tier alchemist. Otherwise, the lingering soul force wouldn’t affect me, a high-grade eighth-tier alchemist.”

Staring at the ”Dan City” characters on the wall, Lin Feng sighed inwardly.

He was astonished at the terrifying might of a Dou Sheng. Judging from the carving marks, these characters were nearly a thousand years old. Yet even after so long, they still suppressed him, a Dou Zun-level expert.

As for the person who carved these characters, if his guess was right, it should be the Dan Clan ancestor who helped the first master of the Pill Tower establish the Pill Tower.

After all, he had joined the Pill Tower for quite some time, and he had read much of its history in the archives. Naturally, he was not unfamiliar with many things. His gaze then shifted downward toward the city gate.

He discovered that the entrance was already packed with people. Even though the gate was wide enough for dozens of people to pass through side by side, the line of people stretched several li into the distance.

”Although the Dan Clan is no longer as glorious as it was a thousand years ago, they are still far beyond the fallen Ye Clan. Just the scale of this city and the sheer flow of people already crushes Ye City by hundreds of streets.”

Seeing the congested city gate ahead, Lin Feng shook his head and sighed.

Although the Ye Clan where Ye Xin Lan came from had improved a little, compared to the Dan Clan, the gap was still enormous. But thinking about it, that was normal. The Ye Clan had failed the Five Great Families’ assessments several times in a row.

Judging from the time, they had probably been declining for one to two hundred years.

As for the Dan Clan, although they were no longer as powerful as they were a thousand years ago, they still possessed a peak Nine-Change Dou Zun expert who was also a nine-colored eighth-tier alchemist, a strength not inferior to the Pill Tower’s Leaders.

Compared to the Ye Clan, who previously only had a seventh-tier alchemist, the difference was not just a little—it was overwhelmingly large. Even with his support now, it would still be extremely difficult for the Ye Clan to catch up to the Dan Clan anytime soon.

”Sigh, no point thinking so much. Better to focus on getting Dan Clan matters done first.”

Lin Feng shook his head and prepared to skip the line and head straight toward the gate. After all, as a Dou Zun and a high-grade eighth-tier alchemist, he naturally had certain privileges here in Dan City.

”Master Lin Feng?”

Just as he was about to move, a voice filled with a hint of uncertainty suddenly came from beside him.

Hearing this, Lin Feng turned his head. He saw a man wearing the robe of a six-tier advanced alchemist, with a badge shaped like a pill hanging on his chest, calling out to him.

Lin Feng immediately recognized the badge—he had seen it many times on Dan Chen’s clothing. It was the Dan Clan’s emblem.

”Do you need something?”

Seeing that it was someone from Dan Chen’s family, Lin Feng did not leave immediately. After giving the man a quick look, he responded.
