Back then, Zi Yan had even planned to ask that senior to summon the Three Thousand Burning Flame back.
That way, she could take the Heavenly Flame and brag in front of Lin Feng again. But in the end, those old men told her that the senior had long disappeared somewhere deep in the void. Hearing that result left her extremely disappointed.
Xiao Yixian and Ye Xin Lan were stunned.
Their eyes widened sharply. They never would have imagined that the Three Thousand Burning Flame imprisoned by the Pill Tower had actually escaped from the Ancient Void Dragon Clan!
As for Lin Feng, although he already knew this, he still acted surprised for a moment before saying, "So tell me, what method do you have that guarantees I can get the Three Thousand Burning Flame?"
Hearing that, Zi Yan's vanity was immensely satisfied. She lifted her chin proudly and said, "You should feel lucky. That senior left a Dragon Seal inside the Three Thousand Burning Flame back then. Otherwise, your chances of subduing it wouldn't even be ten percent."
As she spoke, Zi Yan closed her small hand, and a transparent jade bottle appeared in her palm.
Through the bottle's crystal-clear walls, Lin Feng, Xiao Yixian, and the other two women could clearly see.
Inside the bottle flowed a small amount of dark-golden liquid. As the liquid swayed, a powerful and intimidating dragon might quietly spread out from within.
"Ban Sheng level Ancient Void Dragon blood."
Feng Qing'er's delicate nose twitched. A moment later, her noble and elegant face became unusually serious.
Through certain methods, she could sense clearly that the owner of this golden blood was far stronger than she was. She could guess that only a Ban Sheng level Ancient Void Dragon could give her such oppressive pressure.
Lin Feng, Xiao Yixian, and Ye Xin Lan were also surprised. This was their first time seeing the blood of such a powerful expert.
Zi Yan, after taking out the jade bottle, immediately said to Lin Feng, "Give me your hand."
Lin Feng extended his palm at once.
"I'll plant a Dragon Seal on your hand as well. After you enter the Star Region, it will make things easier."
After saying that, Zi Yan carefully opened the jade bottle.
A single drop of dark-golden blood fell onto Lin Feng's palm. She quickly formed a hand seal. The dark-golden blood suddenly came alive, flowing rapidly across Lin Feng's hand. It formed a strange rune that embedded itself firmly into his palm.
Once the Dragon Seal was fully formed, Zi Yan sealed the remaining blood in the bottle again before tossing it to Lin Feng. "Take this. Once you enter the Star Region, find a chance to smear the rest of the blood onto the forehead of the Three Thousand Burning Flame. That will activate the Dragon Seal hidden inside it. After that, success or failure will depend on you."
Hearing this, Feng Qing'er's brows furrowed deeply. "If I remember correctly, doing this doesn't guarantee success. And this Dragon Seal is mutual. If my husband succeeds, he controls the Three Thousand Burning Flame. But if he fails, doesn't that mean the Three Thousand Burning Flame can control him instead?"
"Is that true?"
Xiao Yixian and Ye Xin Lan were shocked. They quickly looked at Zi Yan.
Judging from their expressions, if Zi Yan didn't give a convincing explanation, they absolutely would not allow Lin Feng to use this method to subdue the Three Thousand Burning Flame!
Hearing Feng Qing'er call Lin Feng husband so naturally, a flicker of displeasure flashed through Zi Yan's eyes.
She turned her head away and said, "The Dragon Seal I gave Lin Feng was something I rolled around on the ground for a long time to sneak from a high-level Ban Sheng elder of my clan. It's extremely precious. Compared to that senior's casually placed mark, this one is definitely higher in quality."
"Besides, when two Dragon Seals clash, it becomes a contest of soul power. Lin Feng can refine eight-colored eighth-tier pills. His soul power is ridiculously strong. How could he lose to the Three Thousand Burning Flame? With his conditions, unless he deliberately throws the fight, he's guaranteed to subdue it."
As she spoke, Zi Yan shot a glare at Xiao Yixian, her expression practically saying, I'm not stupid, how could I make such a rookie mistake?
Lin Feng accepted the jade bottle and stored away the ancient dragon blood.
Then he smiled at his three wives and said, "Relax. If we compare full strength, I might not win against the Three Thousand Burning Flame. But if it's only soul power, with my late-stage Spirit Realm soul power, dealing with an Heavenly Flame is as easy as flipping my hand."
Xiao Yixian and Ye Xin Lan fell silent for a moment. They knew well how important this Heavenly Flame was for Lin Feng, who cultivated the Flame Mantra. And as the others had said—
In pure strength, Lin Feng might not defeat the Three Thousand Burning Flame. But in soul power, the Three Thousand Burning Flame definitely could not compete with a high-grade eighth-tier alchemist like Lin Feng.
In the anticipation of countless people, a day passed almost in the blink of an eye. When the morning light of the second day poured down from the horizon, the Holy Pill City, which had been slightly quiet for two days, instantly turned fiery once again.
Early in the morning, countless people got up before dawn and rushed toward the direction of the Pill Tower headquarters. Because today was the day when the top ten of the Pill Gathering would enter the Star Region to attempt subduing the Three Thousand Burning Flames.
Holy Pill City, as the holy land in the hearts of all alchemists on the Dou Qi Continent, was naturally home to countless alchemists. Thus, these alchemists who revered Heavenly Flames were all extremely curious.
Would this Three Thousand Burning Flames, which had been sealed by the Pill Tower Three Leaders for so many years, be subdued this time?
So, when Lin Feng arrived outside the Pill Tower with his three wives and Zi Yan, he discovered that the place was already filled with a deafening crowd. A sea of black human heads filled every street and alley near the Pill Tower headquarters.
However, after Lin Feng arrived, he did not see the figures of the Pill Tower Three Leaders. It wasn't until the blazing sun in the sky slowly climbed to its peak that Xuan Kongzi and the other two finally appeared above the heavens amidst a twist of space.
"The top ten of the Pill Gathering, step forward and prepare to enter the Star Region!"
Suspended high in the sky, Xuan Kongzi looked down at the endless masses below. His deep voice slowly echoed through the heavens. Before his voice even finished, figures shot out from all directions, hurrying straight toward the sky.
"Zi Yan, stay here with Qing'er and Xin Lan for a while and wait for us."
After speaking to the few remaining on the ground, Lin Feng shot upward with Xiao Yixian toward the sky.
As for Ye Xin Lan waiting below, she was actually part of the top ten of the Pill Gathering. But the reason she did not follow Lin Feng into the Star Region was because her entry slot had already been sold to someone else.
Yes, sold.
Because the Pill Tower never explicitly forbade the transfer of the quota to attempt subduing the Three Thousand Burning Flames.
In truth, Ye Xin Lan hadn't planned to sell it at first. But Lin Feng worried about her safety, so he had the Ye Clan inform the Pill Tower Leaders that Ye Xin Lan intended to give up her Star Region entry.
However, once the Pill Tower Three Leaders heard this, they immediately thought of taking the chance to send in a strong expert of their own to protect Xiao Yan.
But since this was a reward from the Pill Gathering, it would look bad if sold to outsiders. Otherwise, in the end, the ones entering the Star Region might all end up being powerful figures the top ten knew.
Thus, they proactively spoke to the Ye Clan messenger and offered one seven-colored eighth-tier pill in exchange for the quota, assigning it to one of the Pill Gathering contestants. The Ye Clan messenger, unable to decide, relayed the message to Ye Zhong.
Once Ye Zhong heard it, he immediately told Lin Feng. After thinking for a moment, Lin Feng told the Ye Clan to accept.
"Xiu xiu~"
With soft swishing sounds cutting across the sky, the ten people preparing to enter the Star Region soon arrived a short distance before Xuan Kongzi and the other two.
The Three Leaders slowly swept their gazes across the ten. Finally, their narrowed eyes paused on the cold-smiling Old Mu Gu and the calm, indifferent Lin Feng. Under the pressure of the Three Leaders' gaze, Lin Feng remained unfazed, but Elder Mu Gu's face twitched and he glared back.
After all, he knew that with countless eyes watching, Xuan Kongzi and the others would definitely not dare to do anything to him. So naturally, he had nothing to fear.
Seeing Old Mu Gu's arrogant attitude, the Three Leaders secretly gritted their teeth before withdrawing their gazes. After exchanging glances, they rapidly formed a series of profound hand seals. At the same time, a vast surge of soul power erupted from the trio.
The next moment, everyone saw the sky above their heads suddenly ripple violently.
"Boom!"
With a deafening roar that shook the heavens, a faint silver spatial gate appeared in everyone's sight.
"For this trip, the Grand Elder will be entering the Star Region with you. He will explain the rules once you're inside. Now, all of you, go in!"
Xuan Kongzi glanced sideways at the silver gate, his expression solemn.
