Han Feng continued to investigate the bottom of the cave with his soul power and found that there were still many good things, but he did not intend to plunder them completely.
The nurturing of an Extreme Yin Land is very difficult. Now that the Cloudy Sky Stone King Flower and the larval Nine Nether Wind Flame—the two most valuable items—have been taken away, if more mining is done, this Extreme Yin Land will probably be completely destroyed.
Although two wonders are gone now, the Extreme Yin field formed by the intertwining of Yin qi all year round will not disappear so easily.
It's just that the density of Yin qi will slowly decrease. The series of reactions triggered by this will be positive for the Black-Corner Region.
Natural disasters with huge power like the "Black Storm" will no longer be born.
Even if there are other natural storms occasionally, their power will be within a controllable range.
Han Feng stomped his foot, and his figure quickly ascended towards the top of the cave.
He had already explored the path when he came down. Now advancing at full speed, he arrived at the edge of the deep pit in a moment.
Gu Xun'er and Lin Xian'er were staring intently inside the black deep pit. Suddenly feeling a subtle airflow, they immediately retreated.
However, the one who came out of the pit was Han Feng treading on golden light.
The two girls breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master, what's down there?"
Lin Xian'er asked curiously.
"A ninth-grade medicinal herb, and a prototype Heavenly Flame."
Han Feng didn't hide it and took out the two good things to open the eyes of the two girls.
"This is... Nine Nether Wind Flame!"
Gu Xun'er recognized the black fire seed in Han Feng's hand at a glance.
Pitch-black flames, entwined with Yin qi, surrounded by fine blade-like astral winds.
These distinctive features belonged to the Nine Nether Wind Flame, ranked tenth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking!
"Cloudy Sky Stone King Flower!"
Lin Xian'er also recognized the medicinal herb in Han Feng's other hand.
As Han Feng's disciple, she had studied medical and pharmaceutical books since childhood. Her knowledge of medicinal herbs was no worse than any alchemist.
At first, she learned the basics. After passing Han Feng's examinations, Lin Xian'er continued to study advanced and high-level books.
Han Feng taught her the top medicinal herb knowledge on the continent, including some eighth and ninth-grade peak medicinal herbs.
This Cloudy Sky Stone King Flower could be considered the best among Yin attributes.
Any ninth-grade medicinal herb was the best of the best, but due to different attributes, the most suitable users were naturally different.
Feeling the rich and pure Yin qi in the Cloudy Sky Stone King Flower, the Dou Qi in Lin Xian'er's body involuntarily began to become active.
Just smelling the residual scent had such an effect, as if refining a sixth-grade pill, refreshing and gladdening the heart. Truly worthy of being a ninth-grade medicinal herb!
Lin Xian'er exclaimed greatly in her heart.
By Han Feng's side, she had eaten quite a few top-notch pills, so she was qualified to judge.
Han Feng smiled faintly and put away the two wonders.
"Alright, if you want to see, look slowly when we go back."
Han Feng came to the edge of the deep pit, a cluster of yellow flames emerging in his hand.
Since it was a paradise, it couldn't be let off easily. It must be protected well to prevent others from destroying it.
Han Feng extended his right hand, using his hand as a brush and fire as ink, drawing a huge rune in the air.
"Suppress!"
The Black Yellow Flame condensed the surrounding earth qi and shrouded over the deep pit.
The black gas escaping in the cave was now continuously forced back into the deep pit. The originally dark and dull rock walls actually became somewhat translucent at this moment.
These rocks, eroded by Yin qi all year round, revealed their original appearance, turning out to be incredibly smooth Heavenly Gang Jade.
Heavenly Gang Jade has extremely high hardness and strong ductility after melting. It can be used to refine connecting parts of various high-level tools.
The flame in Han Feng's hand stopped, and the huge "Suppress" rune sealed the entrance.
He looked around at this time, seeing patches of Heavenly Gang Jade, a look of realization in his eyes.
"So it's Heavenly Gang Jade. No wonder it could withstand the erosion of Yin wind for years."
Logically speaking, this rare jade stone wouldn't appear on the rock surface but hide deep inside the rock mine.
If others wanted to mine it, they would need to spend a lot of effort searching inside the mountain.
Sometimes finding a small piece was already extremely lucky.
But in this cave, Heavenly Gang Jade actually appeared in patches.
It could only be said that this place was extraordinary. The surface ores covering the Heavenly Gang Jade were all eroded and weathered by the Yin wind over the years, drifting into the air, thus exposing these rare spiritual ores.
Han Feng condensed a blade with Dou Qi in his hand and cut off a piece of Heavenly Gang Jade, planning to take it back for research.
These Heavenly Gang Jades were different from ordinary ones; their interiors were filled with Yin qi, which could be said to be mutated spiritual ores.
Maybe the value was even higher than the original ones.
But the specific situation required detailed testing and analysis after returning.
"Let's go."
Han Feng led the two girls out of the cave.
Gu Xun'er looked back at the deep pit, then walked quickly to Han Feng's side.
"Mr. Han, is there some powerful monster hidden under that deep pit?"
"No."
"Then why did you seal it?"
"Although there are no powerful monsters, there is a paradise rich in Yin qi."
"What!"
Gu Xun'er exclaimed in surprise.
They stumbled upon a paradise by accident.
You know, even in the Gu Clan, paradises are not something one can have just by wanting. Conditions like time, geography, qi mechanism, and energy must all be met for a paradise to be born.
Paradises vary in size and quality. In the Gu Clan, there are a total of eight paradises, among which only two are of high quality, solely for the cultivation of clan elders and core disciples.
The most mysterious Heavenly Tomb is of a quality that cannot be classified by levels, belonging to the kind of place unique for ten thousand years.
However, since the Nine Nether Wind Flame was born here, it must be a not-weak existence among paradises.
"I took away two wonders. The paradise below suffered some damage and needs some time to recuperate itself, so I have to set up a formation to prevent others from disturbing and destroying it."
Pressing all the Yin qi back into the deep pit was partly to prevent it from continuing to hurt others, and partly to let it return to its place to recuperate well.
"Master, when the paradise recovers, can I go down to cultivate?"
Lin Xian'er asked.
"Of course, but you can't go down alone then. It's still relatively dangerous below."
Regarding the small episode where Lin Xian'er was confused by Yin qi just now, although she didn't realize the seriousness of the matter herself, Han Feng knew this matter shouldn't be taken lightly.
Without possessing a Heavenly Flame wonder for protection like Gu Xun'er, ordinary cultivators would easily fall into the trap.
But this couldn't stump Han Feng.
Whether it was pills or weapon refining, Han Feng had ways to help Lin Xian'er avoid the previous situation.
It's just that the most fundamental thing is the cultivator's own will.
If a cultivator's will is as hard as iron, it is difficult to shake their lower dantian.
Lin Xian'er was lacking in this aspect.
The strange physical reactions that occurred every time she broke through a major realm explained the problem very well.
Han Feng decided to strengthen his disciple's cultivation in this aspect next.
He didn't do this before because Han Feng thought it was mainly a side effect of the Poison Pill Method, thinking it would be alleviated after Lin Xian'er broke through to Dou Ancestor and completed the cultivation of the Poison Pill Method.
But now it seems that although the Poison Pill Method might have side effects, the most important cultivator's temperament cannot be ignored just because of physique or cultivation method reasons.
Now with Han Feng's Dou Saint cultivation, there was no need to worry too much about side effects.
To put it bluntly, even if Lin Xian'er's Woeful Poison Body acted up now, Han Feng had ways to rescue her from danger.
The reason why almost all Woeful Poison Bodies on the Dou Qi Continent died before was partly due to the side effects of the Woeful Poison Body itself, and partly simply because they didn't grow fast enough, and the ceiling they touched wasn't strong enough.
With a ninth-grade alchemist taking action, many seemingly unsolvable problems were no longer problems.
However, Han Feng didn't intend to let Lin Xian'er rely on him to walk out of the shadow of the Woeful Poison Body.
Only by crossing that hurdle herself could she truly step out of the restriction.
The paradise needed a long time to recover, at least a year or two, so this period was enough for Lin Xian'er to improve herself.
When she broke through to Dou Ancestor and possessed the corresponding strength and temperament, this paradise would become the most suitable place for her cultivation.
Golden light flashed again, and the three quickly returned to Feng City.
This way of traveling didn't need to waste the spatial power in the Void God Stele. Under familiar terrain, coming and going freely could save a lot of time.
Inside the bamboo pavilion, Lin Xian'er and Gu Xun'er played with the treasure Han Feng just obtained.
The young and tender Nine Nether Wind Flame had consumed too much power in the wrestling with Han Feng. Now like an exhausted little beast, it could only emit incompetent rage.
"Such a cute Heavenly Flame."
"Is this what a Heavenly Flame looks like before growing up? So small."
Lin Xian'er and Gu Xun'er extended their jade fingers to touch gently. The Nine Nether Wind Flame felt humiliated, but under the deterrence of the Gold Emperor Burning Heavens Flame, it shivered and dared not move.
Let alone the Gold Emperor Burning Heavens Flame, even the sub-flame of the Nether Poison Fire in Lin Xian'er's hand could suppress and bully it.
"Alright, don't break it."
Han Feng felt the Nine Nether Wind Flame's cry for help and rescued it from the hands of the two "witches".
This act of playing the good cop instantly made the Nine Nether Wind Flame feel close to Han Feng.
Han Feng teased the exhausted Nine Nether Wind Flame and took it into his body.
"I plan to go to the Nanli Continent, and then stop by the Beast Region. Are you coming with me or staying..."
"With you!"
The two girls answered without thinking.
"Okay, I'll ask Qing Lin and the others later. Departure will be in these few days. You can prepare and see if there's anything needed in the Beast Region."
"Of course, if not, we can also buy in the Nanli Continent."
Han Feng originally planned to take the girls to the Nanli Continent for a tour.
Although the Black-Corner Region was developing rapidly, it was ultimately a nook on the edge of the continent. Compared to the Nanli Continent with a very different style, the Northwest Continent was too primitive.
Since none of them had been to the Nanli Continent, they could relax while doing business.
Ye Qingyun had just retreated from the front line of the road construction army.
She was responsible for many things, but the most important was exploring suitable construction routes.
With the advantage of the Cyan Wood Longevity Body, she had completed one-tenth of the task progress.
For the next period, it would be handed over to the road construction army for practical operation.
Han Feng came to the tent where Ye Qingyun rested and knocked gently on the screen.
"Who!"
Ye Qingyun looked outside, originally thinking it was an official discussing plans, but unexpectedly it was Han Feng. She stood up abruptly.
"Master!"
"Adapting well recently?"
"Adapting. With the help of the Rakshasa Sect Master, the people below are very cooperative."
Ye Qingyun praised Su Mei.
If she were present, she would definitely be grateful to Ye Qingyun.
After all, this was an opportunity to speak directly in front of Han Feng.
During this time, Su Mei cooperated with Ye Qingyun wholeheartedly and spent time guiding her on how to command the people below, making up for Ye Qingyun's lack of experience as a superior. Wasn't it all for this moment?
"Su Mei is indeed a capable person, but don't trust overly. You must have your own dominant judgment."
Su Mei was a woman who rose from the old era of the Black-Corner Region. Surviving in that environment and establishing a foundation, could she not be formidable?
Such a person can yield and stretch. As long as given a chance, she can climb up quickly.
Looking at the previous top ten of the Black Ranking now, how many had good endings?
Su Mei was considered one of the more successful ones in washing herself clean.
Ye Qingyun nodded.
Han Feng found a place to sit casually, and Ye Qingyun poured him a cup of herbal tea.
"Master came this time to see the progress of the highway construction?"
Han Feng took a sip of tea and shook his head: "No, came to find you. I plan to go to the Nanli Continent, and you come with me."
"Me?"
Ye Qingyun puzzled:
"Then things here..."
"No rush. Road construction is not something that can be completed in a day or two. You point out the direction and let them do it."
Han Feng gave the people below such generous rewards not for them to slack off.
"You also have to pay attention to leaving enough time for cultivation. Don't spend all your time on official duties."
Han Feng said earnestly.
"Yes, Master."
Ye Qingyun's cultivation time had indeed decreased recently.
She was too concerned about the tasks Han Feng gave her, so many things, including cultivation, were left behind.
Now that Han Feng said so, Ye Qingyun decided to change her time allocation.
Ye Qingyun tidied up a bit, went out to explain things, and returned to Han Feng's side without spending much time.
"Master, I'm ready."
"Assigned everything?"
"Mm."
Ye Qingyun nodded.
"Actually, my leaving for a while won't have much impact. Su Mei can temporarily preside over the overall situation, and I have planned the excavation routes before."
"That's right. Assign tasks well; don't do everything yourself."
"Master, but I see you doing many things yourself?"
Ye Qingyun said.
During the time after Han Feng returned to Feng City, he worked late every day.
"That was because I rarely came back, and too many things piled up. It won't be so hard now."
Han Feng took Ye Qingyun back to Feng City.
Next, she had to find those two girls, Qing Lin and Mu Qingluan.
