In the silent night, in a canyon shrouded in black mist, wailing sounds could be heard from time to time.

Under the cold moonlight, one can vaguely see figures flickering in the black mist. The walking postures are not like living people at all, but like walking corpses. And there are many such figures in the canyon. They are densely packed and walking aimlessly, turning the place into a Dead Land, just like the underworld under Jiu You, full of eerie and terrifying feeling.

"Brush~"

In the distance, a blue stream of light came quickly and floated steadily above the canyon. The person coming was surprisingly Han Feng. At this moment, his handsome face was a little twisted and ferocious. It seemed that he could not suppress the anger in his heart. He stared at Dead Land below with cold eyes and said coldly, "You two, please come out and talk!"

"Jie Jie, Medicine Emperor seems to be a little angry today. Is it possible that Black-Corner Region someone dares to provoke you?" Along with a deep strange laugh, a strange figure floated out of the black mist among the figures, and his scarlet eyes looked at Han Feng faintly.

As the black shadow emerged, another burly figure floated out from one side. His tone was hoarse, with some expectation. "How about it, do you need us to help you kill the other party?"

Recently, they have been very happy to cooperate with Han Feng. With the help of the other party, they successively slaughtered two cities, including hundreds of thousands of dead souls and bodies, allowing them to be promoted to Guardian among the Soul Hall. Therefore, the two of them now have a good sense of Han Feng, and even want to continue to cooperate with each other.

If they can kill seven or eight more cities, they might also be able to get a glimpse of the Venerable Elder realm!

Just thinking about it makes my heart feel hot, and I can't control my inner urges.

"That matter has attracted the attention of many people, and it cannot continue. I heard that old guy mention it back then. Black-Corner Region has its own rules. If you act too recklessly, you may cause some big trouble!" Han Feng shook his head and said in a deep voice.

It's okay to do something like massacre once or twice. If it's done too much, it will definitely attract the attention of some old guys. Let's not talk about it at a distance. The mysterious alchemist 'Eighth-Tier' is quite troublesome at the moment.

Thinking of this, he looked at the two people below and continued, "Compared with this, I have a big deal here. I wonder if you two have the guts to take it. If not, you can ask Venerable Elder from your branch and ask him if he is interested in hunting down an alchemist who owns Spirit Realm Soul!"

"?!"

As Han Feng finished speaking, the expressions of the two people below suddenly changed. The scarlet light in their eyes flickered uncertainly. They stared at Han Feng in shock, as if they suspected that the other party was joking.

The soul shares the four realms of atmosphere, Mortal Realm, Spirit Realm, heavenly realm, and Emperor Realm!

Most of them stay in the Mortal Realm throughout their lives. Only some alchemists have the ability to upgrade their soul realm to the Spirit Realm or even the heavenly realm. Such alchemists, without exception, are the targets of the Soul Hall. This was the case with Venerable Yao back then!

The more powerful the alchemist is, the stronger and more valuable his soul will be. One person is worth the souls of millions of ordinary people.

"How could such an alchemist appear in Black-Corner Region? Are you trying to trick us?"

The leader of the black shadow's eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was a little heavy, because any alchemist with Spirit Realm Soul power has the lowest grade of High Rank 7, and it is very likely that he has already stepped into Eighth-Tier. How could such a being come to a place like Black-Corner Region, let alone come into contact with Han Feng.

"Of course not. I don't know why that person came to Black-Corner Region. He came to the door on his own. He seems to have a grudge against my teacher back then. When he heard my name, he came to the door..." Han Feng said with gritted teeth as he thought about everything today.

It had been many years since he had felt such a humble feeling, kneeling in front of the other person like an ant, begging the other person to spare him.

Thinking of how he was begging for mercy today, his expression became extremely ferocious, and his eyes even wanted to devour anyone, like a wounded beast looking for someone to vent his rage.

"Oh? It seems that you suffered a lot today, Jie Jie." The leader of the black shadow said with a smile, his tone full of joking.

"... I'm not here to make you laugh!"

Han Feng snorted coldly and said dissatisfied.

"We can't reply to you directly on this matter. We don't know what the strength of that person is yet. However, the strength of an alchemist with Spirit Realm Soul will not be weaker than Dou Zong at least. It's very difficult!" Guardian, who was standing behind the black shadow, said in a gloomy tone. He was relatively calm and was not carried away by Han Feng's words.

Spirit Realm Soul Although the value is very high, you must also be able to hunt and kill. Don't end up trapping yourself in it. That is a joke.

"Then Venerable Elder..."

Han Feng was about to say something, but was directly interrupted by the other party.

"Don't think about it, Venerable Elder will not step into Black-Corner Region. At their level, they are bound to each other and will not enter Black-Corner Region. Besides, Venerable Elder has to sit in the branch hall, how can he go out for a Spirit Realm Soul." The black shadow said coldly, cutting off all Han Feng's fantasies.

"Then what do you mean?!" Han Feng asked in a deep voice.

Without Soul Hall Venerable Elder level strong men to take action, just relying on them, we can only gamble. The risk involved in gambling is that the opponent is not very strong. The risk is too high.

"You can test it out. Since the other party has set foot in Black-Corner Region and even attacked you, its strength must not be high. It should not be a Dou Zun level expert, at most it is Dou Zong. With your name of Medicine Emperor, you should be able to find some Dou Zong level experts in Black-Corner Region... Let them give it a try!"

The leader of the black shadow said in a cold voice, for him, it is better to give up on things that he is not sure about, rather than risking his own life and letting others die.

Because no matter who wins or loses, he can harvest the opponent's soul, and there is almost no loss during this period.

Even if the mysterious alchemist fights with the opponent and both sides are injured, he can still reap the benefits. Isn't it wonderful?

"Black-Corner Region's Dou Zong is strong..."

Han Feng frowned slightly. In the years since he came to Black-Corner Region, he had dealt with very few strong Dou Zong people. If he wanted to find someone who could deal with Yao Yan, he really didn't have a clue for a while.

Seemingly sensing Han Feng's troubles, the black shadow reminded him considerately, "Demon Flame Valley Old Ancestor is not weak, you can lure him into action."

"Why, are you targeting Demon Flame Valley?!"

Han Feng's eyes moved when he heard this, and immediately looked at the other party, and said in a deep voice, he did not believe that the other party would be so kind to remind him that the cooperation between the two parties was only based on interests, and they did not have any friendship with each other.

"Just by the way~" Black Shadow did not deny their intention.

As their strength increases, their ambitions naturally expand. Compared with "small fights", the souls of the strong are more attractive, especially the souls of the Dou Zong level. Each one is very cost-effective. Whether it is used to exchange for contribution points in the Soul Hall, or to devour it yourself, it is excellent.

"... Okay, I'll give it a try. It just so happens that I want to take action against the Jia Nan Academy. Rumor has it that the relationship between Demon Flame Valley and Jia Nan Academy is not good. Maybe we can take advantage of it."

Han Feng pondered for a while, a fierce look suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he said in a condensed voice.

Now he has no way out, either take a gamble or lose everything. He doesn't believe that guy will be merciful to him, and the two Soul Clan and the new Guardian in front of him obviously can't count on it, because the people of the Soul Hall never help when the time is right, they will only add insult to injury. Friendship is bullshit in their eyes, and some are just benefits.

In this regard, Han Feng is no different from them, so he can see it very clearly.

"Jia Nan Academy..." When the black shadow heard this, a flash of hesitation flashed in his eyes, because Venerable Elder, the branch hall, had once warned him not to attack Jia Nan Academy at will. As for the reason, the other party did not explain. Now that Han Feng wants to attack him... he seems to have no reason to stop it.

If Han Feng dies in the opponent's hands, it seems good. He can collect his body. Together with Rank 6 Alchemist's soul and Heavenly Flames Sea Heart Flame, its value is not low.

No matter what you think, you won't lose anything~

As for why Han Feng is targeting Jia Nan Academy, he has no interest in knowing. Soul Hall is only interested in the soul.

Han Feng glanced at the two people below, then turned and left. He came here just to tell the two people the news. He believed that the two people would not be able to bear it. The attraction of an alchemist with Spirit Realm Soul to the Soul Hall is quite fatal. As long as he can force out the opponent's strength, these two people will definitely take action.

Just as Han Feng expected, not long after he left, the two of them started talking about the alchemist who owned Spirit Realm Soul.

"Would you like to inform Venerable Elder? An alchemist who owns Spirit Realm Soul is enough to make Venerable Elder violate the rules once." The burly figure behind the black shadow said coldly, with a greedy light shining in his eyes. If not for his lack of strength, he would have taken action himself and swallowed it up.

Spirit Realm Soul ah... I really don't know what it feels like.

"I've informed you, do you and I still have a share?" The leading black figure snorted coldly and asked.

The improvement in strength has made his ambitions expand. Compared with Guardian, he also wants to become a Venerable Elder. Although Guardian has a certain status and freedom, it cannot be compared with Venerable Elder. If he can devour a Spirit Realm Soul, he may have the opportunity to step into the realm of Venerable Elder.

"We can't defeat each other on our own." The latter said extremely calmly. He had not yet been dazzled by the benefits.

"How do you know if you don't try? Let Han Feng test it first. If it doesn't work, it won't be too late to inform Venerable Elder."

"Okay!"

Time flew by and it was already ten days later.

In the past ten days, Yao Yan has been very nourishing with Han Feng, and Han Feng has also served him extremely well. No matter what the request is, he has tried his best to meet it, and he did not dare to be negligent at all, and Yao Yan kept putting pressure on Han Feng, forcing him to take action against the Jia Nan Academy. As for whether Jia Nan Academy would know about it, he had nothing to worry about.

As a half-Soul Clan person, you don't really think Yao Yan is a good person, do you?

In a sense, Yao Yan is also a selfish person, but this selfishness has a slightly lower bottom line and does not appear so inhumane. These may be the last obsessions of his previous life, which make him slightly different from people in this world.

"Senior and junior have convinced several Dou Emperor from Demon Flame Valley that they are willing to help and help break into the Jia Nan Academy Inner Academy... But where Heavenly Flames is, further inquiries are needed."

Han Feng stood respectfully beside Yao Yan, reporting his recent behavior without even daring to raise his eyes, looking like a bitch.

Yao Yan leaned in the arms of a beautiful maid, enjoying the kneading of the two beautiful maids with his legs. He half-squinted his eyes and listened to Han Feng's report. After he finished speaking, he said calmly, "Then check, and let me know when you have the results... If you can't find it, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Fuck... Han Feng cursed in his heart, pulled a smile from the corner of his mouth, and responded, "Junior understands!"

After saying that, he respectfully stood up and left, preparing to deal with the matter of attacking Jia Nan Academy, because the deadline given to him by Yao Yan was getting closer and closer. As for escaping... where could he run? Once he got out of Black-Corner Region, there were many people at Central Plains watching him.

I really thought Venerable Yao had no friends back then?!

There were quite a lot of doubts about the cause of the other party's death that year, and many people wanted to ask him for answers. If he hadn't run so fast, his life would have been lost.

After Han Feng left, Yao Yan opened his eyes slightly, with some thoughts deep in his eyes. According to the original plan, he wanted to take the path of Xiao Yan and pretend to be forced to refine Fallen Heart Flame. However, he later found that this was not necessary, because it would take some time before Fallen Heart Flame burned through the seal, and he did not have the time to wait.

"That's all, you can fool me for a while, but you can't fool me forever." Yao Yan thought to himself and had some plans for the next action.

Thinking of this, he was no longer interested in enjoying it.

He raised his hand to stop the four maids and asked them to go out temporarily. Then he sat cross-legged on the soft floor, took out a Dou Ling Pill from Storage Ring and threw it into his mouth. gushed out between his eyebrows. Soul Power, seal up the surroundings of the house, shield all auras from being exposed, and start refining Medicinal Power, preparing to increase the strength from Six Star Dou Wang to Nine-Star Dou Wang in one go.

His strength has stabilized Dou Qi and he can continue to improve. Although this behavior is a bit risky and hasty, with his current Soul Power, he does not have to worry about being unable to control his strength, and his body and bones can withstand it. The time he spent laying the foundation before was not in vain.

Dou Ling Pill melted in his mouth, instantly turning into streams of pure energy flowing into his limbs and bones. At the same time, the Heaven and Earth Energy around him also rushed toward him, making his aura continuously strengthen. At the same time, the Dou Qi flowing in the meridians became more and more powerful. Each time it circulated, it would grow stronger and faster.

Dou Wang Star Level It was as if the bottleneck between Star Level did not exist. The six to seven stars passed by in a breath, and then they moved towards the eight stars at a speed visible to the naked eye...
