**
That cluster of flame churned and burned ceaselessly inside, its appearance quite strange.
Moreover, from the faint aura seeping out of the jade bottle, it was clear the power of this beast flame was anything but weak.
Unable to suppress his curiosity any longer, Lin Feng took it out from his storage ring.
"This flame's color and other traits are basically the same as the dark-red flame those guards used earlier. Only, compared to theirs, this one is far stronger. Looks like it must have been given to that woman by that Rank 8 magic beast."
Gazing at the dark-red flame inside the large transparent jade bottle, Lin Feng speculated inwardly.
At this moment, he somewhat understood why this clan was called the Demon Flame Cloud Fox. The beast flame within their bodies was indeed something ordinary magic beasts could not compare to.
"Next, I'll check if this woman's storage ring contains the spatial jade slip of that Rank 8 magic beast. If it doesn't, then it means she's not favored at all and naturally won't pose any threat to that Dou Zun. In that case, I'll just kill them all."
With that thought, Lin Feng immediately put the jade bottle away into his own ring. Then, his soul perception once again entered the woman's storage ring, rummaging through it.
"Found it."
After searching for a while, Lin Feng discovered a palm-sized jade slip on a certain wooden shelf inside.
At once, he retrieved it.
"Heh, with this jade slip, more than half of my plan is already a success."
As he stared at the jade slip in his hand, the depths of his pitch-black eyes gleamed with excitement.
Afterward, Lin Feng pondered briefly, then gathered up all the storage rings from those people along with the spoils they had obtained earlier, shoving everything straight into his chest.
Once he had secured everything, his palm gently flicked.
A mass of azure flame instantly rose up from his hand.
Then, with a flick of his finger—
That flame split into nine thin serpents of fire, which drilled into the bodies of those nine people, attaching themselves to each of their hearts.
After finishing, Lin Feng turned his head toward Xiao Yixian and said, "Take these nine people further away first. And also, use poison on that woman who hasn't been poisoned yet.
When that Rank 8 magic beast arrives, it's best we don't stay together. This way, we'll force the other side to hold back and not dare to attack recklessly."
What they were about to face was a Three-Star Dou Zun-level magic beast.
It was best to prepare as many safeguards as possible. After all, they had no idea what kinds of methods that beast might possess.
"Alright."
Xiao Yixian nodded gravely. On their way back here, Lin Feng had already explained the plan to her.
So, she was fully aware that what they would soon face was a Rank 8 magic beast.
Naturally, the more precautions they took, the better. With a wave of her jade-like hand, a wisp of purple-gray qi shot out, drilling into the nostrils of that woman.
Once that was done, Xiao Yixian used her Dou Qi to lift all those people up, then flew off toward a distant sand dune.
As for Lin Feng, once she had moved far away, he retrieved several black stone pillars from his ring.
Upon them were carved intricate and complex patterns.
These were permanent formation patterns Lin Feng had inscribed some days ago while studying the Bloodthirsty Spirit Formation.
For safety's sake this time, he decided to put them to use. If danger arose, they could at least delay the enemy for a short while.
Then, channeling his Dou Qi, he lifted all sixteen stone pillars high into the air, arranging them in a specific formation.
"Go!"
With Lin Feng's command, the stone pillars plummeted down at great speed.
Not even the blink of an eye had passed before the lower halves of those stone pillars sank straight into the desert below.
Afterward, they stood firmly in place. At the same time, Lin Feng brought his hands together, forming a seal.
"Bloodthirsty Spirit Formation, activate!"
With his words, the surfaces of the stone pillars instantly flickered with blood-red light.
Then, from the tops of the pillars, strands of blood-colored threads suddenly shot out, linking the pillars together.
"Boom~"
In the next instant, the blood-red glow atop the pillars blazed to life with a sudden intensity. And then, all of the stone pillars sank completely into the sand below.
The crimson radiance vanished along with them.
"Hu~"
After completing this, Lin Feng took in a deep breath. Once he had calmed his mindset, he immediately stepped outside of the formation.
He then took out the spatial jade slip he had retrieved from the woman's storage ring and crushed it.
As the jade slip shattered, a surge of extremely powerful spatial force erupted outward. Under Lin Feng's curious gaze, that spatial force twisted the space beside him into a crack.
The moment that rift appeared, he quickly retreated some distance, entering the formation. If the other party lost control, he could immediately activate the formation to buy himself some time to escape.
"My dear Xue'er, who dares to bully you? Your grand-grandfather has come to avenge you!"
At that very instant, a thunderous roar suddenly came from within the spatial rift. Immediately after, a thin and small figure strode quickly out of the crack.
As that figure emerged, a vast aura erupted like a storm, sweeping across the entire desert.
Clearly, he believed that his descendant had encountered danger, which was why he had been summoned.
"It's you!"
The old man had just stepped out of the spatial rift when, upon sensing Lin Feng's aura, his heart instantly sank.
As a Dou Zun-level expert, he no longer needed to memorize appearances.
As long as he had encountered someone before, then upon meeting them again, he could tell from their aura whether or not he had seen them before.
And Lin Feng's aura—he had not forgotten it.
After all, not long ago, he had snatched a mid seventh-tier pill from both Lin Feng and Xiao Yixian. Naturally, the impression it left on him was extremely deep.
Now, seeing the situation before him, a bad premonition silently rose up from the depths of his heart.
At this moment, the cunning expression on the thin old man's face had vanished completely.
His gaze fixed on Lin Feng, brimming with killing intent, he said in a deep voice, "Why are you here? Where is Xue'er?"
"Heh, over there."
Suppressing his nervousness as best he could, Lin Feng extended his hand, pointing toward the sand dune where Xiao Yixian was, and chuckled lightly.
Hearing this, the thin old man turned his gaze toward the direction indicated. Although the distance was great, as a Three-Star Dou Zun, he could still clearly see the situation over there.
Immediately, a trace of mockery flashed across his eyes.
Though the distance to that sand dune was vast, with his ability to wield spatial power, it was something he could traverse in the blink of an eye.
And yet they thought they could kidnap someone with such means?
