Back mountain of Falling Star Pavilion.
Han Feng quietly returned to this place and happened to bump into Yao Chen and Xiao Yan talking.
"Senior Brother!"
Xiao Yan saw Han Feng appearing behind Yao Chen, his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed.
Hearing this, Yao Chen turned around and saw Han Feng who suddenly descended.
"Teacher."
Han Feng walked towards the two.
"En, you're back."
Yao Chen revealed a smile.
The few big things Han Feng did before had already spread throughout the entire Central Plains.
Killing the Great Heaven Venerate and Deputy Hall Master of the Hall of Souls.
Such things that predecessors had never done were all undertaken by him alone.
Yao Chen was already mentally prepared, but when he saw the results of Han Feng's actions, he was still shocked.
At the same time, he was also worried about Han Feng's boldness and radicalism.
If eliminating branch halls before was just digging the corners of the Hall of Souls little by little, then this time, it was directly digging out half of the Hall of Souls' foundation.
It is hard to imagine what kind of revenge the Hall of Souls will launch against Han Feng.
But it definitely won't be petty fights like before.
After understanding the strength of the Soul Execution Division, dispatching again will involve at least Dou Saint level combat power, and there will be no lack of mid-level Dou Saints.
Now that Han Feng has returned safely, Yao Chen's hanging heart has finally settled a bit.
"Five-Star Dou Emperor, not small progress."
Han Feng looked at Xiao Yan and laughed.
"It seems you won the competition set before?"
Before Han Feng left the Falling Star Pavilion, he set a competition for Xiao Yan, Qing Lin, and Lin Xian'er to see who made the most progress in this year and a half.
Xiao Yan has now completed the promotion to Dou Emperor and even broke through to Five Stars. The other two probably can't compare.
"I am at the Dou Emperor realm, so the speed of improvement is much faster than Dou Ancestor. Qing Lin is at a critical period of breakthrough again, so..."
Xiao Yan smiled.
This competition win was somewhat unfair.
Han Feng took out a small ball of soul origin emitting rich spiritual energy from his bosom and handed it to Xiao Yan.
"Reward for you, take it."
Xiao Yan reached out to take it.
He felt the pure soul origin in his hand and was somewhat shocked.
In his life of cultivation, this was the first time Xiao Yan saw such pure soul power.
"This is... soul origin."
Yao Chen recognized the origin of this thing, his expression somewhat complicated.
This should be obtained by Feng'er from the Hall of Souls.
Xiao Yan didn't know the reason, his face very happy.
After refining this ball of soul origin in his hand, he felt hopeful to advance to the Spirit State!
"Thank you, Senior Brother!"
"Go refine it."
Han Feng said with a smile.
Xiao Yan chuckled and couldn't wait to walk out of the room, flying towards his cultivation place.
In the room, Yao Chen looked at Han Feng.
"Such precious soul origin, you don't keep it for yourself?"
Han Feng took out another ball of soul origin from his bosom, which was richer than the one given to Xiao Yan.
"Teacher, this is for you."
Yao Chen was stunned, then waved his hand: "Keep it for yourself; I don't need it."
"Disciple's soul realm has reached the limit of the current stage. These soul origins are of little help to me."
Han Feng said.
In the past year, he refined most of the soul origin obtained from the Hall of Souls, raising his soul realm to the level of Perfect Heaven State.
The next step is the legendary Emperor State.
In the previous life, the Hall of Souls collected soul origin for a thousand years before barely cultivating an Emperor State Soul.
What Han Feng intercepted now is not even one percent of it. Wanting to advance to Emperor State with this is undoubtedly wishful thinking.
It's better to give the remaining soul origin to others. The effect obtained will be much more obvious than refining it himself.
"Could it be you have already..."
Yao Chen looked at Han Feng in shock.
He knew before that Han Feng's soul realm had already stepped into the Heaven State.
Then the limit of Heaven State he mentioned now, isn't it... Perfect Heaven State!
The peak realm second only to Emperor State Soul!
Han Feng nodded, the divine light in his eyes flashing gently.
In just an instant, Yao Chen felt heavy pressure hitting him.
Although he is already a One-Star Dou Saint, his soul realm is still at the mid-stage of Heaven State. Facing the Perfect Heaven State, he doesn't have much room for resistance.
The terrifying soul pressure dissipated instantly. Han Feng stopped just right.
"Teacher, I am already at the Perfect Heaven State, so you should refine this soul origin; maybe you can advance to the late stage of Heaven State."
Yao Chen sighed deeply.
"Alright, then I'll accept it."
Yao Chen took the soul origin, feeling complicated emotions in his heart.
Once upon a time, he sought resources for his disciple, but now it's the disciple's turn to seek breakthrough resources for him.
Forget it, I am indeed not as powerful as Feng'er. He is already at the Perfect Heaven State!
How many people in the current Dou Qi Continent have reached this realm?
Probably no more than the number of fingers on two hands.
"We have all seen the current situation of the Hall of Souls. What do you plan to do next?"
The Hall of Souls suffered heavy losses, but considering the Soul Clan behind it, mere two initial-stage Dou Saints are actually nothing.
As a first-class level among the eight clans, there are quite a few Dou Saint powerhouses under the Soul Clan.
"Take one step at a time."
"Not planning to seize the initiative?"
Yao Chen asked.
If taking one step at a time, it is equivalent to giving the opponent a chance to make a move.
Although more secure, the initiative is also lost.
Han Feng said: "The next battle is to completely destroy the Hall of Souls, so we can't be too hasty; otherwise, it might be counterproductive."
Of course, there is another layer of reason, that is, Han Feng considered the subsequent lobbying plan for the eight ancient clans.
The eight clans like stability; casual persuasion may not work.
So at this time, if the Hall of Souls is kept as a pawn to intensify the contradiction between various clans and the Soul Clan, an opportunity to intervene can be found.
Leaving a glimmer of hope for the Hall of Souls and hanging the opponent can layout on the envisioned path without disrupting the general trend.
Currently, Void Swallowing Flame in the Soul Clan should not have broken through to Emperor State Soul yet.
The initial establishment goal of the Hall of Souls has not been completed, so they will not give up capturing soul bodies.
Moreover, the layout of the Spirit Devouring Life Ending Formation has not been abolished.
Even for this, the Hall of Souls will not fall.
In that case, surround three sides and leave one open, waiting for an opportunity to act.
Borrow the hand of the Hall of Souls to help him complete the plan.
"Good that you are confident."
Yao Chen nodded.
"If you need us to take action, remember to say so."
Han Feng smiled gently.
If you are needed to take action, unless it is the final decisive battle, needing to bet everything, succeed or die trying.
Otherwise, there is no need for you to take risks.
"Teacher, I'll go see Xian'er and the others first."
Yao Chen waved his hand.
"Go, they are in the courtyard on the left side of the back mountain."
Han Feng left the small courtyard and came to Lin Xian'er's residence.
At this time, the three women happened to be in the courtyard.
Lin Xian'er, Qing Lin, and Qingluan were discussing the upcoming trip to the Heaven Mountain Blood Pool.
"I know the seniors of the Gold Swallowing Mouse clan. The checkpoints they set up are no problem for me."
Mu Qingluan said.
"Don't conflict with others in advance. That Feng Qing'er, it's not too late to act during the Four Pavilions Grand Competition."
Lin Xian'er said.
Mu Qingluan nodded, but there was an unwillingness to show weakness flashing in her eyes, seeming impatient to get back at her.
"Does Qing Lin really not want to break through the checkpoints?"
Mu Qingluan asked.
Qing Lin shook her head.
"I am already at the peak of Dou Emperor. If I enter the Heaven Mountain Blood Pool, I'm afraid I won't be able to suppress the breakthrough energy."
Hearing this, Mu Qingluan was somewhat silent, not knowing what to say.
She finally reached the peak of Nine-Star Dou Emperor with difficulty, possessing the qualification to advance to Dou Ancestor.
But look at her, having to suppress it deliberately.
"Don't know when Uncle Han will come back."
Qing Lin was somewhat worried.
If she continues to cultivate, she really won't be able to hold back.
"Don't worry. After going to the Heaven Mountain Blood Pool, if Master doesn't come back, I will send you back to the Sky Serpent Mansion."
Lin Xian'er said.
She is now a Seven-Star Dou Ancestor, with superb Poison Arts. Even facing a Dou Venerate powerhouse alone, she is no longer afraid.
Although the Central Plains is far from the Northwest Continent, it is no longer a problem for Lin Xian'er and Qing Lin.
"If you return to the Northwest Continent, going to the Heaven Mountain Blood Pool is just right. That is the Northern Region, closer to the Northwest Continent."
While the three were chatting, Qing Lin suddenly sensed something and looked towards the gate.
"Uncle Han..."
Han Feng walked into the gate and smiled at the three.
"No need to wait until after the Heaven Mountain Blood Pool; I'm back now."
Lin Xian'er quickly came to Han Feng.
"Master!"
She hugged Han Feng tightly, an indescribable joy in her heart.
The other two also quickly came to Han Feng.
"Bad Senior Brother, you finally came back!"
Mu Qingluan crossed her arms and hummed.
When Han Feng left before, he didn't say goodbye to her properly, so this girl has some resentment now.
Han Feng looked at Qingluan, raising his eyebrows: "Almost breaking through to Dou Ancestor. I remember promising someone something before; why can't I remember it all of a sudden?"
Mu Qingluan's delicate body trembled, then she put on a smiling face and leaned over.
"Senior Brother is the best. You promised me before to help me reshape my body..."
"Is that so?"
"Yes yes yes!"
Mu Qingluan hugged Han Feng's thigh and started acting like a spoiled child.
Han Feng extended his finger and gently flicked Qingluan's forehead.
"Ouch!"
Mu Qingluan covered her reddened forehead and pouted.
"Cultivate well these days, adjust your state to the best, and then we will go to the Heaven Mountain Blood Pool together."
"Understood."
Mu Qingluan nodded obediently.
"As for Qing Lin, no need to cultivate recently. I will teach you a Qi circulation technique later, which can temporarily suppress the Dou Qi in your body and explode together when breaking through in the future."
When Han Feng broke through to Dou Ancestor back then, he used this method to maintain the Dou Qi in his body at the peak period while slowly increasing it.
Qing Lin nodded happily.
She indeed felt a slight swelling in her chest recently, and the circulation of Dou Qi in her body almost reached the peak.
If Han Feng's method can help her relieve it, that would be great.
"Uncle Han, then I'll go to the room and wait for you first."
After speaking, she pulled Mu Qingluan away from the small courtyard.
"What about you? How have you been recently?"
Han Feng looked at his disciple who was still hugging him and said helplessly.
"So-so."
Lin Xian'er said.
Han Feng thought for a moment and smiled gently.
"I'll take you to a place."
Saying that, Han Feng set a spatial coordinate in the courtyard, then the two figures flashed, crossing space and arriving in the Medicine Saint Valley.
Fresh and slightly sweet air filled the surroundings. Lin Xian'er was slightly stunned and raised her head from Han Feng's arms.
"This is..."
Lin Xian'er's eyes slowly widened.
"Medicine Saint Valley!"
She recognized the place in front of her at a glance.
Even though she has been away for many years, the profound memories of her childhood still make her remember this place vividly.
Lin Xian'er stared blankly at everything in front of her.
"Haven't been back for a long time."
She said softly.
"I have been in seclusion here for this year, refining artifacts, making pills, and cultivating."
Han Feng said.
"If I had known, I would have come here to cultivate too."
Lin Xian'er said.
Compared to the Falling Star Pavilion, she prefers the Medicine Saint Valley more.
Although it is not as lively as the Falling Star Pavilion here, she doesn't like talking to others either. A quiet life alone suits her very well.
If Han Feng is also by her side, that would be perfect.
"There will be plenty of time in the future."
Han Feng said with a smile.
"I'll take you to the medicine garden to have a look. There is a spiritual plant growing very well there."
Han Feng took Lin Xian'er to the medicine garden. That huge green vine was extremely conspicuous. Lin Xian'er blinked, looking around the green vine in surprise again and again.
"What spiritual plant is this? Why is it somewhat different from my impression?"
"I don't know either, but its potential is huge. It has hope to grow into a Rank 9 spiritual medicine in the future."
Han Feng said.
"This is... the mysterious seed Master asked us to plant back then?"
Lin Xian'er suddenly remembered something.
At that time, Lin Xian'er was learning herbal knowledge and also had some experience in planting plants.
Initially, she was responsible for the planting work of spiritual plants in the medicine garden, but later Ye Qingyun learned the relevant techniques. Her physique was indeed more suitable for planting and raising plants, so the work of the medicine garden was handed over to Ye Qingyun.
This seed, Lin Xian'er failed to cultivate anything from it. It was later taken over by Ye Qingyun that it was cultivated out of the soil.
"The mysterious seed raised by Aunt Ye, didn't expect it to have such potential!"
Lin Xian'er laughed.
Rank 9 spiritual medicine, the preciousness is self-evident.
The two wandered in the medicine garden for a while, admiring many rare and exotic herbs.
The warm time passed quickly, and the sky unknowingly darkened.
"Master, let's go back. Don't you still have to teach Qing Lin the cultivation method?"
Lin Xian'er said.
"Feeling better now?"
Han Feng asked with a smile.
Lin Xian'er snorted softly.
"I was already very happy."
Seeing Han Feng return, no matter how many negative emotions she had in her heart, they disappeared in an instant.
Han Feng smiled, held Lin Xian'er's hand, and flashed back to the Falling Star Pavilion.
"Xian'er, don't use Azure Dragon Dou Techniques for the time being. I will teach you a movement Dou Technique tomorrow."
"Okay, Master."
Lin Xian'er didn't ask Han Feng for the reason.
But Han Feng took the initiative to explain: "Recently, Azure Dragon Dou Techniques are being watched by some people. Although you don't know the subsequent two offensive Dou Techniques, it's best to avoid using them."
Lin Xian'er nodded and kept Han Feng's words in mind.
