"Oh? Lin Feng, if you need something, just tell this old man," the Dan Clan Ancestor said with a squint-eyed smile as soon as he heard Lin Feng was looking for him.

He was more than satisfied with Dan Chen's heaven-defying talent as his son-in-law, so naturally his attitude toward Lin Feng was extremely warm.

Hearing those words, Lin Feng immediately told him everything about Xiao Yixian's Woeful Poison Body and the Ban Sheng tomb located in the Myriad Poison Mountain Range.

Upon learning that the gentle, white-robed girl standing in front of him was actually the infamous owner of the Woeful Poison Body, the Dan Clan Ancestor was shocked to his core.

Just judging from appearance alone, no one would ever imagine that this soft, lovely young girl possessed such an overwhelmingly terrifying constitution.

"No wonder I said this little girl reached the peak of Dou Zun at such a young age. So she actually carries such a unique constitution. Still, your luck is unbelievable."

"I've encountered the Woeful Poison Body twice in my life. But someone who can suppress it and survive all the way to Dou Zun… this is my first time seeing such a thing."

The Dan Clan Ancestor shook his head in amazement after a long moment of silence. At this moment, he truly couldn't help but marvel at the luck of Lin Feng and Xiao Yixian.

Back in the barren Northwestern Region, they actually managed to find a way to suppress the Woeful Poison Body. Now, right after reaching the peak of Dou Zun, they immediately found the tomb of a Ban Sheng who also possessed the Woeful Poison Body.

This fortune… no one else could compare.

He waved casually and said, "No problem. Since I've got nothing to do recently, I'll accompany you on this trip."

If that Ban Sheng's attributes had been something else, he might still have been a little interested. But poison attribute?

He didn't have even the slightest interest.

Poison attribute cultivators were always ruthless, and their bodies were filled with countless venomous toxins. Compared to the tombs of other same-level experts, that kind of place was easily ten times more dangerous.

Their Dan Clan was a clan of alchemists, not poison refinement specialists. A poison Ban Sheng's tomb was something he would normally avoid if he could. Even if there was a high chance a Heaven Class technique was inside.

The Dan Clan didn't have a single poison attribute cultivator.

If he entered recklessly and got poisoned by remnants left by that Ban Sheng, the Dan Clan could be ruined. Therefore, compared to potential gains, the Dan Clan Ancestor feared the risks of that place far more.

After all, the Dan Clan didn't lack treasures. Why gamble the entire clan's future for the possibility of a Heaven Class technique?

"Then I'll trouble senior," Lin Feng and Xiao Yixian said respectfully when they saw he had agreed.

"It's fine. This old man has been staying in the Small Pill Tower so long I'm growing mold. Might as well take the chance to get some fresh air."

With that, the Dan Tower Ancestor lightly waved a hand through the space before him. Though his movement looked gentle and effortless, the space split open instantly, revealing a dark void behind it.

"Little girl, let's go."

After opening the space, the Dan Clan Ancestor turned toward Xiao Yixian.

"Mm."

Xiao Yixian nodded slightly, then turned to Lin Feng: "I'll go with senior first. If I find the tomb, I'll immediately crush the space jade slip. If more than three days pass and you still haven't received my signal that means Xiao Yan lied."

"Alright."

Lin Feng made an OK gesture.

After confirming the signal with him, Xiao Yixian tapped her toes on the ground. Her delicate figure turned into a streak of white light and flew straight into the spatial rift.

"Lin Feng, if you ever need something in the future, you can call for this old man directly."

As he watched Xiao Yixian disappear into the void, the Dan Clan Ancestor waved his sleeve, flicking a palm-sized jade slip toward Lin Feng.

The moment Lin Feng saw it, he hurriedly reached out and caught the jade slip. Almost at the same time his voice sounded, the Dan Clan Ancestor's figure disappeared from the room entirely.

Meanwhile, the spatial rift before the group also snapped shut, returning to its previous, perfectly ordinary appearance—as if it had never existed at all.

"Lin Feng, so… do we just wait here now?"

Seeing the two ahead leave, Zi Yan immediately turned her gaze toward Lin Feng, her little face scrunching up. Hearing this, Lin Feng spread his hands helplessly: "Looks like… that's all we can do."

Then he glanced at the girl and added, "Besides, with two eighth-tier alchemists here, what's the difference where you stay?"

"That's true. As long as there are enough ingredients, I can just make you two refine more pills for me."

Thinking of how she never had to worry about pill supplies with Lin Feng and Dan Chen around, Zi Yan instantly relaxed. With that, she no longer bothered dwelling on it.

While Lin Feng's group talked, on the other side of Holy Pill City, Xiao Yan also returned to his own temporary residence.

The moment he stepped inside, Yao Chen—who had been floating beside Feng Zun Zhe mid-conversation—drifted over and asked, "Xiao Yanzi, how did it go? The trade went smoothly, right?"

"Mm. I already told Lin Feng the location. He promised that once that woman confirms whether the tomb is real or not, he'll immediately give me the information about that Heavenly Flame."

Xiao Yan nodded as he looked at Yao Chen and Feng Zun Zhe.

Hearing that the exchange was successful, Feng Zun Zhe raised a brow: "Have you learned anything about the origin of that Heavenly Flame?"

Xiao Yan shook his head: "Right now I only know that its power surpasses even the sixth-ranked flame on the Heavenly Flame Ranking—the Eight Wasteland Destruction Flame. Aside from that, I still don't know much."

"Stronger than the Eight Wasteland Destruction Flame? Wouldn't that make it at least the fourth ranked flame, Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame?"

Hearing this, Yao Chen was shocked to the extreme. Then, puzzled, he muttered, "Why would that boy be willing to give you that kind of information? A flame at that level is a priceless treasure. He's actually willing to part with it?"

"Maybe he's worried he might get himself killed. After all, Heavenly Flames ranked near the top may be powerful, but they're also extremely dangerous. If something goes wrong… he might lose his life outright."

Thinking back to the overwhelming shock he felt when he first saw the Three Thousand Burning Flame, Xiao Yan spoke uncertainly.

"I don't think that's the real point."

At this moment, Feng Zun Zhe suddenly interrupted the master and disciple. Xiao Yan and Yao Chen both turned their gazes toward him.

"That woman with the Woeful Poison Body is heading to the Myriad Poison Mountain Range to accept a Ban Sheng's inheritance. Should we send someone there too… and when she reaches the critical point of receiving the inheritance—"

As he spoke, Feng Zun Zhe raised his hand and made a throat-slitting gesture.
