With the shattering of the golden giant bell, the surrounding earth qi suddenly began to boil, the earth trembled, and the earth dragon turned over.
Han Feng took out the Basalt turtle shell and activated the Living Soil inside to suppress the earth qi.
Because the Mysterious Yellow Flame was suppressed by the Void Great Hall, it lost control of the surrounding earth qi, causing turbulence.
As an earth-attribute spiritual object, the Living Soil had extremely strong control over the earth, and soon began to calm the earth qi and stabilize the mountain body.
As long as this active energy was quieted down, there would be no problem.
It took a full half an hour for Han Feng to completely quell the fluctuations within the surrounding area.
If this energy was allowed to rage, the nearby cities and villages might suffer a catastrophic disaster.
Putting away the Living Soil, Han Feng came to the side of the Void Great Hall. At this moment, it was firmly suppressing a small golden bell below.
This small golden bell was the source of the Mysterious Yellow Flame.
Defeating an enemy is sometimes not difficult, but taming it is often much more troublesome.
More dangerously, you have to expose your weakness to the opponent and fight a battle where the weak overcome the strong.
What Han Feng faced now was how to refine the Mysterious Yellow Flame.
This was destined to be a difficult battle.
But Han Feng was not afraid.
The conviction in his heart to move forward supported him.
Han Feng held the source of the Mysterious Yellow Flame in his hand, put away the Void Great Hall, and headed in the direction he came from.
After all, the commotion here was a bit loud, and it was estimated that someone would come soon.
To refine a Heavenly Flame, one still had to find a safe place.
About half an hour after Han Feng left, two lights flew from the horizon.
A man and a woman, their Dou Qi wings vibrating behind them, exuding the aura of Dou Emperor experts.
"There was an extremely strong energy fluctuation here just now. Why is it quiet now?"
The man looked at the traces of battle below. "Someone should have fought here just now and has left now."
"Could it be someone from the Dao Sect?"
"Not sure."
Both were cultivators of the Eastern Xuan Empire guarding this area. Because they were close to the incident, they rushed over immediately.
Due to the huge commotion, they also notified the chief guard of this place, a Dou Ancestor expert.
A moment later, a figure stepping on the void flew from the horizon.
"Lord Dongfang, the fluctuations here have subsided, but we did not find the experts who fought when we arrived."
Dongfang Ming nodded and looked around.
"From today on, seal off this place, and then notify the people of the Dao Sect to come and take a look."
"Yes."
——————————
Han Feng returned to the treasure ship. Lin Xian'er was cultivating.
She had already broken through to the nine-star Dou Spirit realm, and the next step was to advance to Dou King.
It was a coincidence that both master and disciple encountered a key stage of cultivation.
Han Feng did not disturb Lin Xian'er and directly started the treasure ship, flying towards the northeast.
After leaving the Dao Sect ruins, Han Feng headed for the Star Sea Islands according to the direction on the map.
To refine the Mysterious Yellow Flame, one needed to find a place with thin earth qi. Otherwise, Han Feng would have to deal with the troublesome Heavenly Flame inside his body and guard against the earth qi attacking from the outside, which could very likely lead to failure.
This was the teaching Yao Chen gave him, saying that he shouldn't have been so anxious to swallow the Bone Chilling Flame back then. If he had found an environment that restrained the Heavenly Flame, the success rate would have been greatly improved, and he wouldn't have encountered so many dangers.
Although Yao Chen successfully refined the Bone Chilling Flame in the end, he seemed to vaguely feel that he had lost something important.
All in all, the price was high and he suffered a lot.
Han Feng was able to refine such a mature Mysterious Yellow Flame in his previous life thanks to Yao Chen's help.
Speeding all the way, Han Feng arrived at the border sea area of the Star Sea Islands.
Here, the map was useless. Many sea routes were confidential, and the map Han Feng bought from the city obviously didn't cover them.
He went deep into the north, where few people went due to the harsh environment.
In his previous life, Yao Chen took him to an iceberg in the north to refine the Heavenly Flame, the Mysterious Yellow Flame.
In this life, Han Feng also chose to go to the iceberg to refine it.
The vast sea was endless. Han Feng spread his soul power and spent three days finally finding a suitable iceberg.
He steered the treasure ship closer to the destination.
Boom!
The treasure ship pressed into the sea surface, stirring up a huge white wave.
"Xian'er, I'm going to the iceberg for seclusion. You stay on the ship and wait for me to come back."
"Okay."
"By the way, breaking through to Dou King is not a simple matter. Wait until I come out of seclusion before attempting to break through."
Lin Xian'er nodded.
She knew her situation clearly. For such a major realm breakthrough, it was best to have Han Feng by her side. In case of an emergency, he could deal with it in time.
After giving instructions, Han Feng set up a defensive formation around the ship, then flew onto the iceberg.
He chiseled an ice cave on the spot for his seclusion cultivation.
The icebergs of the North Sea were very hard. Sometimes they couldn't be melted by fire and could only be pierced by force with Dou Qi.
This extremely cold environment was very unfriendly to ordinary flames.
But for the Bone Chilling Flame, it was a different attitude.
Of course, Han Feng possessed the Sea Heart Flame and was not afraid of this place where fire elements were scarce.
After sitting down in the ice cave, Han Feng took out the source of the Mysterious Yellow Flame.
The small golden bell was a little listless due to the heavy damage before, spinning slowly.
Recalling the painful experience of refining this Heavenly Flame in his previous life, Han Feng took a deep breath and quickly arranged various auxiliary items.
He first took a sip of Ice Spirit Cold Spring to moisten his throat, then took out a piece of Earth Element Leaf and held it under his tongue.
"Phew!"
Cold air spread from Han Feng's mouth, and the temperature inside the cave, which was already extremely low, instantly dropped another notch.
When the effect of the Ice Spirit Cold Spring gradually came into play, Han Feng grabbed the source of the Mysterious Yellow Flame and swallowed the small golden bell.
Gulp!
A scorching feeling exploded from his abdomen instantly. The bell rang, Han Feng's ears buzzed, and his soul sea surged violently.
He suppressed the discomfort and quickly formed seals with his hands.
The formations arranged around him lit up one after another, accelerating the conversion of the ice attribute energy of heaven and earth and injecting it into Han Feng's body.
Han Feng spat out a mouthful of blood, which instantly froze into ice slag.
He grinned, his white teeth stained with scarlet.
"Very good!"
He raised his finger and tapped the center of his brow.
"Flame God Body, release!"
Boom!
In an instant, a powerful aura was released from Han Feng's body.
Flame patterns spread, and monstrous heat waves emanated continuously from the surface of his skin.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle!
The ice under his feet was instantly burned into white steam. Even with the maintenance of the formation, the heat waves emitted by Han Feng at this time exceeded the limit that this place could bear.
Han Feng's cultivation progressed layer by layer, rising directly from four-star Dou Venerate to the level of eight-star Dou Venerate.
At this moment, Han Feng's energy level completely overwhelmed the Mysterious Yellow Flame.
The small golden bell rammed around unwillingly inside Han Feng's body.
But facing Han Feng whose realm had improved, its resistance gradually lost its effect.
On the iceberg, surrounded by the sea, the earth qi was thin. The Mysterious Yellow Flame, which consumed a lot of energy, lost its proud endurance ability.
When the Mysterious Yellow Flame was completely exhausted, Han Feng's Flame Mantra Dou Qi swarmed up and firmly bound it.
In a blink of an eye, the Mysterious Yellow Flame arrived at the trial ground of the "Flame Mantra" cultivation technique.
This was the final link of merging the Heavenly Flame.
Above the trial ground, four Heavenly Flames floated slowly. Due to the activation of the Flame God Body, the four Heavenly Flames showed powerful might, staring covetously at the Mysterious Yellow Flame in the center of the field.
Under the gaze of the four seniors, the Mysterious Yellow Flame trembled slightly, and the small golden bell emitted a soft trembling sound.
At this time, Han Feng's figure manifested in the square. He walked up to the Mysterious Yellow Flame, reached out his hand, and placed it on the small golden bell.
The moment of contact, a layer of golden energy appeared on Han Feng's body, and two golden sparks shone brightly in his pupils.
"Mysterious Yellow Flame, return to your place."
Boom!
In the ice cave, the aura on Han Feng's body skyrocketed.
The cultivation increase brought by refining the Mysterious Yellow Flame far exceeded the sum of other Heavenly Flames.
With the Flame God Body secret technique released, Han Feng's cultivation jumped directly from the late stage of four-star Dou Venerate to the early stage of eight-star Dou Venerate.
It was equivalent to the cultivation under the secret technique before.
Han Feng clenched his hands slightly, and the yellow Heavenly Flame ignited fiercely. Under continuous urging, the thick yellow slowly turned into a bright gold.
He was too familiar with the power of this Heavenly Flame, so within just a minute, Han Feng developed the Mysterious Yellow Flame to the extreme.
The Profound Meaning of the Heavenly Flame regarding the Mysterious Yellow Flame naturally came naturally.
Han Feng dispersed the Mysterious Yellow Flame in his hand, and the flame aura disappeared completely.
A moment later, a layer of faint golden light emanated from Han Feng's body. Han Feng opened his eyes, and rich golden light shot out from them.
"Phew, there's still some gap."
Han Feng said lightly.
But that was expected. After all, it was a skill comprehended only after breaking through to Dou God. How could the current him compare to the state when he was a Dou God?
The golden light dissipated, and a smile appeared on Han Feng's lips.
Anyway, he finally subdued the Mysterious Yellow Flame.
"And..."
Dou Qi shook in Han Feng's hand. In an instant, the energy within a hundred feet surged into Han Feng's body continuously.
The "Flame Mantra" officially broke through the high-level Earth Rank stage and reached the Heaven Rank!
Although it was only low-level Heaven Rank, it was much stronger than before.
Whether it was the quality, storage, or circulation speed of Dou Qi, earth-shaking changes had taken place.
Dispersing the Dou Qi, Han Feng leaped lightly and flew out of the ice cave.
Only then did he realize that most of the iceberg had been melted by the commotion he made just now. The originally spacious foothold had now become much smaller.
Han Feng glanced at the treasure ship in the distance, his soul power flying out to sense first.
Seeing that Lin Xian'er was not affected, Han Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
He returned to the treasure ship and looked back at the iceberg, feeling inexplicably emotional.
Han Feng waved his hand, and the waves churned, taking away the meltwater remaining on the iceberg.
At this time, Lin Xian'er discovered Han Feng outside the house and quickly ran out of the cultivation room.
"Master, did you succeed?"
Han Feng nodded.
"How are you?"
"Pretty good, just about to break through!"
Lin Xian'er clenched her fist and said excitedly.
"Alright then, let's start now."
——————————
The two came to the cultivation cabin on the treasure ship and sat face to face.
"Let me take a look first."
Han Feng reached out and touched Lin Xian'er's wrist. His soul power spread, extending throughout her body.
After checking carefully inside and out, Han Feng nodded.
"Circulate the technique."
Lin Xian'er took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and pinched a seal with her jade hands.
Poison Dou Qi slowly flowed in her meridians. The "Poison Pill Method" officially entered the next stage.
Condensing the Poison Spirit!
When circulating to the ninth large cycle, the Dou Qi in Lin Xian'er's body began to boil, and a huge suction force was generated from her Dantian.
The surrounding heaven and earth energy began to gather towards Lin Xian'er's Dantian.
Han Feng took the opportunity to refine the essence of poisonous herbs into the air for Lin Xian'er to absorb.
For the Woeful Poison Body, poison was the most fundamental source of power.
Heaven and earth energy was secondary.
As a large amount of poison essence poured into Lin Xian'er's body, her poison pill continued to expand. Slowly, cracks appeared on the poison pill.
Han Feng looked tense, paying attention to Lin Xian'er's situation at any time.
Once the breakthrough failed, he would immediately take action to calm her Dou Qi.
Finally, after circulating for another three large cycles, Lin Xian'er's poison pill shattered with a boom.
A strong impact made Lin Xian'er stumble, and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted from her mouth, splashing onto Han Feng.
Too late to care about this, Han Feng immediately straightened Lin Xian'er up.
"Xian'er, hurry up, condense the Poison Spirit!"
Lin Xian'er's face was as pale as paper, and the smear of bright red at the corner of her lips gave her a strange beauty.
Under Han Feng's call, Lin Xian'er gritted her teeth and sat up straight, her hands immediately resuming the seal, continuing the operation of the "Poison Pill Method."
"Condense the Poison Spirit!"
After the poison pill shattered, a large amount of poison gas filled the meridians and Dantian. Lin Xian'er was extremely uncomfortable, and the condensation of the Poison Spirit seemed so long at this moment.
Under endless suffering, Lin Xian'er's consciousness began to blur.
Han Feng's attention was fully focused on Lin Xian'er. Suddenly, a strange heat ignited from his Dantian.
This was a feeling he had never had before, giving Han Feng an uncontrollable impulse.
"What's going on?"
Han Feng divided a part of his energy to look inside his body and found that an evil fire was born from the newly merged Heavenly Flame.
The origin of this evil fire was somewhat mysterious, and Han Feng didn't know why it was born for a while.
Because Lin Xian'er was breaking through with difficulty, Han Feng endured the discomfort and continued to observe Lin Xian'er's promotion.
However, the evil fire burned more and more fiercely. When the evil fire burned to the entire Dantian, Han Feng finally realized that this matter could not be delayed any longer.
Han Feng took out a few Heart-Clearing Pills, swallowed them, and refined the pills to calm the fire.
The effect of the pills lasted only half a minute, and the heat of the evil fire struck again.
"Something's wrong!"
Han Feng clutched his chest.
Although this strange heat was not life-threatening, it gave him a fear of facing the unknown.
On the other side, Lin Xian'er endured the pain, her eyes sometimes blurred and sometimes tough.
Finally, she completed the last step of condensing the Poison Spirit.
Lin Xian'er let out a long breath, her body went limp, and she collapsed into Han Feng's arms.
Feeling the temperature and softness of Lin Xian'er, the evil fire in Han Feng's body expanded further.
"Master."
Lin Xian'er murmured softly.
"Is there something in your pants?"
Just now the two were sitting face to face. Lin Xian'er plunged into Han Feng's arms and felt like she bumped into something hard.
Lin Xian'er looked up weakly at Han Feng.
The bewildering breath passed into Han Feng's nose, and the evil fire in his body completely lost control.
