When Xiao Yixian and Medusa heard Lin Feng's explanation, their initial shock quickly turned into fiery excitement, their beautiful eyes gleaming with heat.

After all, on the Dou Qi Continent, treasures that could enhance soul power were exceedingly rare.

But this soul cultivation technique was able to steadily strengthen the soul without any side effects—there were hardly any people who wouldn't covet it!

Xiao Yixian in particular was overjoyed with the scroll in her hands.

Ever since obtaining the Ghostly Poison Flame, she had been diligently researching alchemy techniques.

However, limited by her Dou Qi attribute and soul strength, she could only barely manage to refine fourth-tier pills.

Once she cultivated this soul technique, perhaps in the future she would be able to refine even higher-tier pills!

Although the pills she refined often carried extremely potent poison—so deadly that even cultivators with poison attributes would die upon consumption—her obsession with alchemy kept her deeply engrossed, unable to extricate herself.

"Where did you get this soul cultivation scroll from? Why didn't you ever mention it before?"

Medusa's gaze shifted from the scroll in Xiao Yixian's hands as she asked curiously.

Lin Feng lightly tapped his storage ring, smiling as he replied, "Two months ago, when Zi Yan and I went to Jia Nan Academy, an old man named Elder Ying Shan tried to rob me for my Bodhisattva Body Transformation Saliva.

In the end, Zi Yan and I joined forces to kill him. After taking his storage ring and exploring it, I discovered that the old man had once had a great stroke of luck—he inherited the estate of a peak seventh-tier alchemist."

Hearing that Lin Feng had been targeted by Elder Ying Shan, both Medusa and Xiao Yixian frowned in concern.

They hadn't been separated from him for long, yet trouble had already come knocking.

However, when they heard that Lin Feng and Zi Yan had successfully killed Elder Ying Shan, they breathed a sigh of relief.

And when Lin Feng mentioned the inheritance of a seventh-tier alchemist, Medusa arched an elegant brow, surprised. "I didn't expect that old man to have such fortune."

"Heh, in the end, it all benefited me."

With a chuckle, Lin Feng continued, "Among the belongings of that seventh-tier alchemist, there were not only several seventh-tier pill recipes, but also that soul cultivation technique and three eighth-tier pill recipes."

"Eighth-tier pill recipes?!"

Hearing this, both Medusa and Xiao Yixian couldn't help but gasp, their red and pink lips parting slightly in astonishment. Their gazes turned dazed as they stared ahead.

Although the soul technique was extremely powerful, its significance was a bit abstract for those unfamiliar with soul cultivation, and it was hard for them to truly grasp how amazing it was.

But eighth-tier pill recipes were a different story. The value of those recipes was far more intuitive and striking for them.

"Lin Feng, let me take a look, please? I've never even seen a recipe of that level in my life!"

After a long moment of awe, Xiao Yixian snapped out of her daze. She quickly ran to Lin Feng's side and clung to his arm with excitement.

Just hearing about such a legendary pill recipe made her itch with curiosity. She couldn't wait to see it for herself.

Chuckling at her eagerness, Lin Feng lightly flicked his storage ring, retrieving one of the eighth-tier pill recipes and handing it to her.

Xiao Yixian carefully accepted the scroll as if it were a fragile treasure, then slowly unrolled it to examine the contents.

However, she didn't dare use her soul perception to directly scan the scroll—she only used her eyes to read the written descriptions.

After all, the specific contents within the scroll could only be read a limited number of times—each scan would consume part of the information stored within.

Seeing her actions, Medusa's curiosity also got the better of her. She leaned in close to look together.

"Eighth-tier Pill Recipe: Advancement Pill"

These bold words leapt into their vision.

And the description of the pill's effects only made the two women's eyes grow hotter with desire.

The Advancement Pill had a simple yet staggering effect that made even Dou Zong-level experts burn with envy.

Even some cultivators at the Nine-Star Dou Zong level would be willing to go bankrupt for a single pill.

Because once consumed, this pill could allow someone at the peak of the Dou Zong stage to sense the barrier of the Dou Zun realm, and enter a state where breakthrough became possible.

Whether the breakthrough would succeed, however, ultimately depended on the individual taking the pill.

When Xiao Yixian saw the words "Two-Colored Pill Lightning" written in the pill recipe, a trace of confusion appeared on her delicate and refined face.

She had heard of Pill Lightning, but this "Two-Colored Pill Lightning" was something she was encountering for the first time.

Turning her head, she curiously asked, "Lin Feng, what does 'Two-Colored Pill Lightning' mean?"

Noticing her confusion, Lin Feng explained, "The Pill Lightning summoned by seventh-tier pills is the normal kind of lightning you're familiar with.

But eighth-tier pills are different. Their Pill Lightning comes in nine colors—and the more colors there are, the higher the grade of the pill and the more difficult it is to refine."

"And according to what's written in this pill recipe, this one belongs to the lowest level of eighth-tier pills, hence the two colors."

Hearing this, both Xiao Yixian and Medusa suddenly understood and nodded in realization.

Xiao Yixian reluctantly rolled up the pill recipe and returned it to Lin Feng, clearly unwilling to part with it.

Lin Feng accepted the scroll, then said calmly, "Let's get ready. Tomorrow, we'll launch an assault on Demon Flame Valley."

"Mm."

Both women nodded slightly and disappeared from the spot in a flash.

Demon Flame Valley—one of Jia Nan Academy's mortal enemies—was located within a massive valley carved into a mountain range in the northern region of the Black-Corner Region.

The vast valley was nearly the size of a small city.

Surrounding the valley were countless dark-black rocks that shimmered faintly with a metallic luster.

These rocks were known as Black Metal Rock—incredibly tough and resistant. Even a Dou Wang-level cultivator would struggle to break them.

It was as if this entire valley had been forcibly excavated from the heart of a massive Black Metal Rock vein.

The people living within it were mostly members of Demon Flame Valley.

Due to the influence of their Founder, the place had attracted a large number of powerful cultivators and had become a bustling center of activity.

After all, their Founder, Old Ground Demon Ghost, was a Seven-Star Dou Zong, a figure of the same generation as the Headmaster of Jia Nan Academy.

In terms of seniority, he was even older than Mo Tianxing of Black Emperor Sect by a whole generation.

And even if one ignored his seniority…

A Seven-Star Dou Zong was still an absolute powerhouse in the Black-Corner Region—there were barely a handful of individuals who could match him in strength.

With such a formidable figure backing them, the members of Demon Flame Valley acted with utter impunity.

They even dared to openly kill groups of Jia Nan Academy students sent out for experience training.

Because of these actions, the relationship between Demon Flame Valley and Jia Nan Academy had always been extremely hostile.

Of course, part of it was also because Old Ground Demon Ghost personally despised Jia Nan Academy.

But on this day, a group of uninvited guests suddenly descended upon Demon Flame Valley.

A lone figure streaked across the sky and appeared above the mountain valley in a flash.

Before the people below could even react in surprise…

Dozens more streaks of light followed, flying swiftly through the sky behind him.

In an instant, the skies above Demon Flame Valley were filled with figures suspended in midair, wings of Dou Qi spread behind their backs. The scene was nothing short of awe-inspiring.

These newcomers were none other than Lin Feng and the powerful members of Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

The disciples of Demon Flame Valley below watched curiously as they looked up at the sky.

Having lived here for so long, they had long become accustomed to the peace and security of their surroundings.

This was the first time they had ever seen someone bold enough to cause trouble on the territory of a Seven-Star Dou Zong.
