Chapter 247

Before he could even catch his breath, Yun Li appeared beside him and captured his soul.

He tried all sorts of methods, even sacrificing his soul and splitting his soul, but he still couldn't escape from the girl's grasp.

"I, Han Feng, am willing to become your personal Yaoshi, sir. Please spare my life..."

At this moment, Han Feng appeared very humble, but he still held onto a sliver of hope, thinking that no matter what, he was still a sixth-grade Yaoshi.

Under normal circumstances, keeping him around to make medicine for oneself would be an irresistible temptation.

However, these things didn't hold much appeal for Yun Li; she wasn't a fighter, nor did she need them.

Moreover, this Han Feng is simply not trustworthy; even the people of Soul Lake are ashamed of their cunning compared to him...

"A personal Yaoshi? That sounds pretty good."

"I can refine dozens of precious Rank 6 pills, and I've even mastered quite a few Rank 7 pill formulas. In a few more years, refining Rank 7 pills will be no problem at all!"

Upon hearing Yun Li's voice, Han Feng assumed she was interested and quickly continued to talk about his own value.

However, he was met with Yun Li's cold laughter in response.

"Heh, you're pretty impressive, but... a heartless ingrate who can betray even the teacher who raised him. I wouldn't dare keep someone like you around."

Han Feng was an orphan rescued by Old Medicine. He grew up under Old Medicine's doting care, and Old Medicine treated him like his own child.

However, driven by his wolfish ambition, he chose to betray and kill his master, who had raised him, under Mu Gu's instigation, all for the sake of seizing a cultivation technique called the Burning Technique.

How could we possibly keep such an ingrate around?

There's no need for doubt or speculation; if there's even the slightest possibility, he'll choose to betray them without hesitation and then disappear.

"... Who, who are you? How do you know all this?!"

"No, it's all his fault. He was selfish. That old man never treated me as a true disciple. It's not my fault! He didn't trust me! What did I do wrong by thinking about my own future? What did I do wrong?!"

Upon hearing these words, Han Feng instantly became furious.

He didn't know how Yun Li found out about his master-killing, nor did he understand her relationship with that old man.

But he never thought it was his fault. That old guy Yao Chen never treated him as a real disciple, otherwise why would he never give him that cultivation technique?

What's wrong with him doing this for his own future?

"Hmph, there's no point in saying more."

That's how narrow-minded people are, and they never regret anything. Even if they admit to regretting something at a crucial moment, it's only because they're afraid and know they're really going to die.

Yun Li was too lazy to waste any more words with him, so she reached out and stabbed into his Soul body, then forcibly pulled out the strange fire from his Soul body.

"Aaaaaaah!!!"

Forcibly stripping away the strange fire would cause the Soul body to suffer intense pain; even Han Feng couldn't help but let out a painful scream.

After all, when a Yaoshi subdues a strange fire, it is directly integrated into the Soul body.

After Sea Heart Flame was completely extracted from Han Feng's Soul body, his Soul body became much more transparent and appeared extremely weak.

At this moment, Yun Li no longer kept his soul...

"No, don't kill me! I was wrong, I was really wrong, I shouldn't have betrayed my teacher, I'm so sorry... Please spare me!"

Sensing that he was about to be completely destroyed by Yun Li, Han Feng disregarded his resentment and hurriedly begged for mercy.

But Yun Li didn't care about or believe his words, and she still erased it completely without expression!

"This is the strange fire, the Sea Heart Flame..."

Having completely dealt with Han Feng, Yun Li looked at the strange fire that was behaving obediently under her fingers, and felt no sense of danger whatsoever, unlike what was described in the original novel.

However, it is indeed much more powerful than the previous Purple Fire, making it perfect for forging swords.

However, it doesn't seem to be perfect yet; it's merely a strange fire and might not be able to bring out the full value of those top-grade purple materials.

If multiple different flames are fused together, its strength can be increased exponentially. Only in this way can the material be forged more perfectly, and only then can a top-tier Divine Weapon Precious Sword be created.

So far, not a single Divine Weapon ranked in the top ten of the collection has been forged; most are ranked outside the top thousand, which Yun Li still cares about somewhat.

However, there is still a strange flame in this Black Twisting Domain, so getting it shouldn't be too difficult.

Yun Li looked toward the location of the Jia Nan Academy.

Considering that the people at the Jia Nan Academy weren't bad people, she felt too embarrassed to directly rob them.

Fortunately, there are two strange flames under the Jia Nan Academy, one of which is a newly formed strange flame that is more suitable for them than the mature strange flames that Jia Nan Academy currently has.

Jia Nan Academy's attempt to forcibly seal the strange fire won't last long before it completely erupts, and they simply can't suppress it. At that point, the academy will likely be destroyed.

Newly formed strange flames can be nurtured from a young age, thus preventing them from exploding.

Therefore, all she needs to do is exchange her small strange fire for their large strange fire, which would be a win-win situation, and the elders would definitely agree.

Furthermore, obtaining the newly reborn Strange Flame is quite simple. It belongs to the Strange Flame that Heavenly Fire Venerable has subdued. Yun Li only needs to help him revive to complete the transaction.

Reviving him would not be difficult. The Soul body of the Heavenly Fire Venerable is intact. All that is needed is a small green or blue branch of the Abundance Jianmu, or other Abundance divine objects, to create a perfect body.

Adapting to the soul of a Dou Zun is not a problem.

It is also possible to revive directly using the Abundance Divine Power, but such a body would probably not be able to match the strength of a Dou Zun's soul.

Thinking about her next steps, Yun Li put Sea Heart Flame into her palm.

"This is Han Feng's strange fire..."

Looking at the strange fire in Yun Li's palm, which resembled a well-behaved child, Little Fairy Doctor was a little surprised. She had thought that subduing the strange fire would be very dangerous.

Especially since she had witnessed the power of this strange fire before, and if she hadn't possessed the divine sword, something terrible might have happened to her.

I didn't expect them to be so obedient in Yun Li's hands.

"By the way, Yun Li, this is Han Feng's storage ring."

Coming to her senses, Little Fairy Doctor quickly handed the storage ring in her hand to Yun Li.

This time, Yun Li did not refuse. She was also a little curious about what good things were in the Medicine King's storage ring.

"I think this storage ring is called something Nether Sea Storage Ring?"

As Yun Li played with the storage ring, she recalled its name.

It's no wonder he's called the Medicine King; the storage ring itself is incredibly valuable.

As an extremely rare high-grade storage ring, it is priceless and unavailable on this continent. Its price alone is beyond the reach of ordinary Dou Huang powerhouses, and the ring itself possesses autonomous protective capabilities.

This makes it virtually impossible for others to bypass the owner and seize the storage ring and its contents. Even if the owner dies, no one can take possession of it without a powerful soul force.

However, this was not a problem for Yun Li. She simply reached out and erased Han Feng's spiritual imprint from the storage ring, and then used her mind to sense what was inside.

Then Yun Li was shocked by what was inside the storage ring.

It can be said that even all the power of a Dou Zong expert combined might not amount to a small fraction of Han Feng's.

With just one glance, Yun Li saw a large number of medicinal herbs and martial arts techniques that were extremely rare in the outside world.

As Rank 6 Alchemist, Han Feng had collected countless treasures throughout his life, but one of the most eye-catching was a very exquisite and magnificent medicine cauldron.

It seems to be called something like the Myriad Beasts Cauldron.

This medicine cauldron, like the Black Demon Cauldron of the Old Medicine, is a rare medicine cauldron on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking. It can withstand the scorching heat of strange fire without melting, and can also greatly improve the Yaoshi's alchemy skills.

Of course, there are also a large number of pill formulas, ranging from first to seventh grade, which are countless.

These items could be used to train a top-tier Yaoshi, and they would be quite valuable even if auctioned off.

Indeed, a man cannot get rich without unexpected wealth, and a horse cannot get fat without night grass!

Yun Li happily sorted through the valuable items in Han Feng's storage ring, and even she couldn't estimate their exact value in gold coins.

The main problem is that many things cannot be bought with gold coins; they are all priced but unavailable, or even priceless.

They usually exchanged valuable items for each other through barter.

In addition, Yun Li also discovered the Tengen Gekko she had previously put up for auction, which unexpectedly returned to her hands after all the twists and turns.

"After resting for a few days, I'll try to forge a few more swords, and then we'll head to the Jia Nan Academy."

Yun Li turned to Little Fairy Doctor and told her about her next plans. Now that she had the strange fire, she couldn't resist trying to forge a sword.

Although you can't touch the purple material, you can use the other materials to try it out.

Moreover, through previous auctions and the Seven Doors, Blood Sect, the Gold-Silver Elders, plus Han Feng's current collection, Yun Li has also acquired a considerable amount of materials in this world that are very suitable for forging swords.

"I'll listen to you."

Little Fairy Doctor naturally had no objections, but then asked with a hint of hesitation, "How do I get into the Jia Nan Academy? It's not through the admissions process, is it? It seems like the application period has already passed."

She had heard that getting into the Jia Nan Academy was no easy feat, especially the inner courtyard, which outsiders had no way of getting in.

"It's easy to get in, don't worry."

As a student?

She had no interest in playing house with those people; she'd rather be a teacher, no, a dean.

Jia Nan Academy has restrictions and barriers that make it difficult for ordinary people, even Dou Huang or a one-star Dou Zong, to break in, but it cannot stop stronger people.

If Yun Li wanted to go in, those restrictions were just for show; they couldn't possibly detect or stop her.

But at this point in time, Xiao Xun'er—no, Gu Xun'er— should be at the Jia Nan Academy, right?

Gu Xun'er also possessed a strange flame within her body, and it was the Crystal Burning Heaven Flame, ranked fourth.

Although the Crystal Burning Heaven Flame is not as mysterious as the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, it still had a formidable reputation in ancient times.

Furthermore, this strange fire is a fire passed down through an ancient clan, and few can subdue it.

Yun Li was naturally interested as well, but she wouldn't snatch it directly. This Crystal Burning Heaven Flame was Xun'er's natal flame, and if it were drawn out, she would surely die.

Gu Xun'er isn't Han Feng, so Yun Li naturally wouldn't kill her casually, but she could use other methods.

Chapter 42: Law of Causality Weapon.

Crystal Burning Heaven Flame!

It is said to be a terrifying strange fire that can even burn away battle qi.

Legend has it that the first master of the Crystal Burning Heaven Flame burned a small world created by a Dou Sheng powerhouse into nothingness when he unleashed this flame.

If it can be brought to its full potential, burning the world is not impossible.

Although this is only in theory.

In short, even if it were taken to the Star Rail Universe, this strange fire would be considered a remarkable Oddities.

It's impossible to say that Yun Li wasn't interested in it; excellent exotic fire is needed not only for alchemy but also even more so for sword forging.

Many materials cannot be melted by a flame strong enough to fully realize their potential. The more powerful the flame, the better it is for forging swords.

The number one ranked Emperor Flame is actually a combination of more than twenty different flames, which is the previous generation's Dou Di, that Exotic Flame Ancient Emperor.

"Jia Nan Academy is truly blessed by nature!"

"Strange Fire, Heavenly Fire Venerable, and even the Dou Di Relic are all beneath Jia Nan Academy."

Upon hearing the mention of Emperor Flame, Yun Li suddenly remembered.

The world's greatest treasure, and the complete Dou Di Relic that everyone dreams of, seems to be located at the deepest part of the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower in the inner courtyard of the Jia Nan Academy.

However, getting in is not so simple...

Although it is located at the deepest part of the earth, it is actually a cave in a void space. To open this Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion, a special key, the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, is required.

The Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade consists of eight fragments, with each of the Ancient Eight Clans possessing one. Gathering them all would be quite troublesome.

I don't know if I can enter the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion without a key.

Yun Li wasn't entirely sure; she would only know for sure after she went there and tried it out.

The treasures inside are very precious; at least for the people of this world, they are among the most valuable items.

As the ruins of the last Dou Di powerhouse on the Dou Huo Continent, it contains two crucial items: the Origin Emperor Qi, which can help people break through to the Dou Di level Emperor Grade Nascent Pill.

In fact, there have been many geniuses on the Dou Huo Continent who have the potential to become Dou Di. However, no matter how extraordinary their talents are, they have never been able to break through to the Dou Di level. Their highest achievement is only the peak of Dou Sheng.

It's because one crucial element is missing.
