Returning to the Gama Empire

Slowly raising her head, Medusa's powerful senses naturally detected that Xiao Yan had already left Canaan Academy.

Taking out the brocade box Xiao Yan had given her, Medusa hadn't consumed a single Earth Fire Lotus Seed inside. Moreover, besides the Earth Fire Lotus Seed, a Soul Jade Pendant was hidden at the bottom of the box.

"Hmph, does this Queen need your rescue?" Medusa snorted coldly, but she didn't directly throw the jade pendant into the fire.

Whenever she thought of Xiao Yan, Medusa felt a strange emotion entangling in her heart.

"Damn it, it's all because of that strange Soul connection." Medusa gritted her teeth. That Soul connection made it impossible for her to calm down and cultivate.

Picking up one of the Earth Fire Lotus Seeds, Medusa pondered for a moment before finally consuming it. Instantly, two streams of Strange Flame energy, one red and one green, surged from within Medusa's body.

With a wave of her hand, the young Fallen Heart Flame slowly floated to her side.

Now that the Heavenly Flame Training Gas Refining Tower had been rebuilt, it still needed to be placed in the Strange Flame Space to absorb the energy left behind by the previous Fallen Heart Flame to grow, because the Fallen Heart Flame was still weak.

Medusa didn't stand on ceremony with Canaan Academy. Although it was weak, it would speed up the condensation of the Strange Flame Snake Body with the help of the Heart Flame Source.

Xiao Yan probably didn't expect that, because of his unintentional act, Medusa would leave seclusion earlier than he had anticipated.

At this moment, Xiao Yan was sitting on the back of the Little Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King, while Little Fairy Doctor and Zi Yan were sitting on the back of the Big Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King, flying out of the Inner Academy.

"This lion is quite comfortable to sit on." Zi Yan revealed her cute little tiger teeth, jumping up and down on the back of the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King, very satisfied with this mount.

Even if the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King had any dissatisfaction, it didn't dare to voice it, it could only suffer in silence.

Mao Wu also enjoyed the Little Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King's soft and slightly warm fur, like a little cat, hugging its tail and dozing off.

Xiao Yan stroked the Little Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King's fur. The Little Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King's strength had improved quite well. Although it was far from as terrifying as Little Fairy Doctor, it was now at the peak of the Fourth Rank and was close to the Fifth Rank.

"Not bad, Little Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King. When I saw you three years ago, you were only at the Third Rank, and now you're almost at the Fifth Rank."

Roar roar roar! (Thanks to the good man's pills!)

"Hahaha, don't worry, I'll help you break through to the Fifth Rank when we get there." Xiao Yan waved his sleeve and said heroically.

Roar! Upon hearing this, the Little Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King excitedly spun around twice in the air, its wings flapping wildly.

Xiao Yan smiled and touched the row of Storage Rings on his hand.

Xiao Yan now looked like a big tycoon, with a total of four Storage Rings on his hand!

One was the Bone Flame Ring inherited from his mother, one was the golden Storage Ring that Ya Fei had given Xiao Yan to store various Medicinal Herbs and a large amount of Gold Coins, one was the Heavenly Flame Venerable's Senbai Storage Ring, and the other was Han Feng's Nether Sea Storage Ring.

Han Feng was dead, so it naturally belonged to Xiao Yan. The Soul seal in the Storage Ring was useless in the face of the Void Swallowing Flame's ability.

The quality of Han Feng's Nether Sea Storage Ring was not inferior to the Bone Flame Ring and the Senbai Storage Ring. This was an ultra-high-quality Storage Ring with a very large space inside. One could imagine how exaggerated Han Feng's gains had been in the Black-Corner Region over the years.

However, Xiao Yan had given the miscellaneous Cultivation Methods and Dou Techniques in the Nether Sea Storage Ring to Canaan Academy. Mainly because those Cultivation Methods were too low-level, Xiao Yan really couldn't stand them. He only kept two Earth Rank Low-Level Dou Techniques.

Xiao Yan didn't plan to cultivate them himself, but planned to take them back to the Xiao Clan to increase their inventory.

Besides that, the Nether Sea Storage Ring only contained the precious Medicinal Herbs that Han Feng had collected and a Medicine Cauldron.

This Medicine Cauldron was of very good quality. Although it was still a bit different from the Black Demon, if Xiao Yan wasn't mistaken, this Medicine Cauldron was the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron, the last one on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking.

The Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron had patterns of roaring beasts carved on it, and its whole body was crimson red. Listening closely, the inside of the Medicine Cauldron would faintly emit some strange roars. This description was exactly the same as Han Feng's Medicine Cauldron.

The quality of the Black Demon was that of a Ninth Grade Medicine Cauldron, capable of reaching the middle level of the Ninth Grade, while the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron was a low-level Ninth Grade Medicine Cauldron.

The level of the Medicine Cauldron couldn't be too low. If it was too low, the Medicine Cauldron would not be able to withstand the temperature when refining high-grade pills, leading to Pill Refining failure.

To refine Ninth Grade Pills, one needed a Ninth Grade Medicine Cauldron from the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking.

Of course, now all of this was cheap for Xiao Yan.

Little Fairy Doctor was still so quiet, lifting her hair that had been messed up by the wind, she turned to look at Xiao Yan and asked, "Are we going straight back to the Gama Empire now?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes, looked in the direction of Peace Town, and shook his head, "No, let's go to Peace Town first. I have something to sell."

Xiao Yan hadn't forgotten that Han Feng's Soul was still inside the Soul Token. Although the Sea Heart Flame was only ranked fifteenth, it was still a piece of fat meat.

Landing in Peace Town, Xiao Yan asked Little Fairy Doctor and the others to wait on the street. After putting on the Soul Robe, he directly flashed into the alley of the Soul Offering Old Shop.

Walking into the Soul Offering Old Shop with practiced ease, as always, the Soul Old Ghost still looked like he was about to die, like an old man on his deathbed.

Of course, if Xiao Yan thought that the Soul Old Ghost was just an ordinary old man and wanted to rob the things here, then he might be killed instantly.

Even though his Soul power had reached the Mortal Realm Completion, Xiao Yan still couldn't see through the Soul Old Ghost's cultivation.

"Heh heh, it's you again. This time, are you buying or selling?" Soul Old Ghost revealed a mouthful of rotten teeth, his eyes half-closed as he looked at Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan took out the Soul Token and tossed it carelessly onto the table, saying, "There are two Half-Saint Soul Bodies, four Dou Huangs, and eighteen Dou Wangs inside."

"There's also a Sixth Grade Peak Alchemist's Soul Body, but he possesses a Strange Flame. I want you to help me extract the Strange Flame."

Despite hearing about so many Soul Bodies and a Strange Flame, Soul Old Ghost's eyes remained unchanged, like a pool of stagnant water, as if these things were nothing special to him.

His withered fingers gently touched the Soul Token, and with a whoosh, the Soul Bodies of Gold Silver Two Elders and the others instantly broke free.

"Xiao Yan! I won't let you go even as a ghost!" Silver Old, who had been killed by Xiao Yan, appeared, looking like a vengeful spirit, filled with resentment.

"Humph." Soul Old Ghost snorted coldly, and immediately the curtain leading to the Soul Path erupted with an incomparably powerful suction force.

"Ah ah!!"

"No no!!"

Amidst the wails of Gold Silver Two Elders and the others, they were all sucked into the Soul Path. With a whoosh, the curtain slowly returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

Xiao Yan calculated silently in his heart. Back then, Yao Ao was a Seventh Grade High-Level Alchemist and a Soul Body of the Medicine Clan, worth as much as 180,000 Soul Points.

A Seventh Grade Low-Level Alchemist's Soul Body should be worth around 100,000 Soul Points. Although Gold Silver Two Elders were not Alchemists, they were at least Half-Saints, each worth about 30,000 to 40,000 Soul Points.

Those Dou Huangs from the Black-Corner Region were not weak, and should be worth 10,000 Soul Points each. Xiao Yan didn't even want to bother calculating the Dou Wangs; it would be good if they were worth 1,000 Soul Points each.

"Not bad, a total of 130,000 Soul Points."

Hearing Soul Old Ghost's words, Xiao Yan could only shrug. This time, it was only because he had encountered Canaan Academy and wanted to take revenge on Han Feng that he had done this. Otherwise, if Xiao Yan had to pay for it himself, those three Huangji Pills would have been a huge loss.

But it could be considered a small fortune.

With a tap, Soul Old Ghost lightly touched the Soul Token. Suddenly, a terrifying blue flame gushed out from the Soul Token, rushing towards Soul Old Ghost's face. With a whoosh, an ethereal Soul Body flew towards the door, it was Han Feng.

Xiao Yan smiled coldly, folding his arms and watching quietly, not intending to intervene. If Han Feng could escape from Soul Old Ghost's hands, then Xiao Yan would immediately loot this place.

Soul Old Ghost slowly extended his withered old hand and gently grasped. The terrifying Sea Heart Flame was instantly extinguished, and Han Feng's Soul Body immediately became unable to move, no matter how he used the Sea Heart Flame, it was useless.

"This is the Soul Offering Old Shop! I am Han Feng, Mu Gu Venerable once brought me here!" Han Feng immediately started to claim kinship.

Hearing Han Feng's wails, Soul Old Ghost didn't react at all. He just stabbed his withered old hand, like a devil's claw, fiercely into Han Feng's Soul Body.

A strange Soul Power that made Xiao Yan frown slowly circulated.

"Is this a Soul Cultivation Method? Or a Soul Skill?" Xiao Yan watched Soul Old Ghost's every move, of course, Han Feng's screams were automatically blocked out.

After about ten minutes, Han Feng's Soul Body visibly became illusory and even shriveled.

It wasn't that Xiao Yan wasn't greedy for Han Feng's Soul Body and wanted to give it to Xuan Protector, but Xiao Yan knew that forcibly extracting the Sea Heart Flame from Han Feng's Soul would either kill or injure Han Feng's Soul, and it wouldn't be worth much then. It was better to do a favor.

"Save me, I know I was wrong." Han Feng's Soul Body struggled to raise his hand, begging Xiao Yan for help.

Xiao Yan just smiled faintly and said, "You should think about what you're going to say to Medicine Venerable, whom you betrayed, after you go down there."

"No!!"

With a poof, Soul Old Ghost suddenly pulled out, a ball of sea-blue flames floating in his hand. The sound coming from the Sea Heart Flame was not the sound of flames burning, but a series of sea waves. When the flames rose, there was a sound of waves crashing against the rocks, which was very magical.

At this time, Han Feng's Soul Body had completely withered, looking even more miserable than Heavenly Flame Venerable had been.

"You can deal with the Soul imprint in the Sea Heart Flame yourself."

Soul Old Ghost gently tossed, and the Sea Heart Flame flew towards Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan hurriedly took out the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron from Han Feng's Storage Ring and put the Sea Heart Flame inside.

What Soul imprints and seals were nothing in the face of the Void Swallowing Flame's abilities.

After Xiao Yan put the Sea Heart Flame in the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron and put it away, Han Feng's Soul Body was finally swallowed by the Soul Path under Xiao Yan's indifferent gaze, and the Black-Corner Region's Medicine Emperor fell.

"Give the Soul Points from Han Feng's Soul Body to Xuan Protector of the Soul Palace in the Black-Corner Region," Xiao Yan said indifferently. Han Feng's Soul Body looked like it would be worth 10,000 Soul Points at most, as the forced extraction of the Strange Flame had greatly damaged his Soul.

Soul Old Ghost said faintly, "The cost of extracting the Strange Flame is 100,000 Soul Points."

!!!! "100,000? Why don't you just rob me?" Xiao Yan glanced at Soul Old Ghost. This guy was a cunning merchant, an old fox!

"Heh heh heh, this is better than robbing."

Soul Old Ghost blocked Xiao Yan with one sentence, leaving him speechless. This was indeed better than him working hard to rob.

"You're ruthless." Xiao Yan gritted his teeth and had to let Soul Old Ghost deduct 100,000 of the 130,000 Soul Points he had just obtained, leaving him with a pitiful 30,000 Soul Points.

"What are you using? I'll go and find a copy to cultivate with," Xiao Yan asked.

Hearing this, Soul Old Ghost revealed a meaningful and strange smile, his pair of eerie eyes staring straight at Xiao Yan as he said, "Heh heh heh, don't you already have the Emperor Soul Skill?"

!?His eyes narrowed, Xiao Yan didn't expect that what Soul Old Ghost had just used was the Emperor Soul Skill! The Emperor Soul Skill could even accomplish something like this! As expected of a Cultivation Method created by Soul Di! Soul Old Ghost flipped his hand, and a small bottle appeared in front of him. The moment this small bottle appeared, the faint Dou Di Bloodline within Xiao Yan's body actually showed a trace of boiling.

Xiao Yan also took out the drop of Dou Di Bloodline that had been refined by the Void Swallowing Flame Sub-fire from his Storage Ring.

Xiao Yan only had one drop, but Soul Old Ghost took out a whole bottle! "As expected, the Soul Clan has a way to extract the Dou Di Bloodline from disciples of other Dou Di families to increase the concentration of their own Dou Di Bloodline. Is this the power of the Void Swallowing Flame?"

The Soul Clan wasn't just hunting Soul Bodies, it was probably also secretly hunting other Dou Di families!! "This bottle of blood can qualify me to cultivate the Emperor Soul Skill?" Xiao Yan calmed his emotions and asked casually.

"Heh heh, that's right. My Soul Clan won't mistreat those who can do things; rewards and punishments are clear. It's not expensive either, only ten million Soul Points," Soul Old Ghost said with a strange laugh.

"Ten million?! Heh, wouldn't that require the Soul Body of a Nine-Star Peak Dou Zun? How could I possibly have that?" Xiao Yan rolled his eyes; this price was outrageously expensive.

"Nine-Star Peak Dou Zun? No, even a Nine-Star Nine-Revolution Dou Zun won't do. It requires the Soul Body of a Half-Saint to exchange for it," Soul Old Ghost directly shattered Xiao Yan's illusions.

Xiao Yan curled his lips and spread his hands, saying helplessly, "Forget it then. Don't mention that I don't have it; even if I did, who knows if you've laced your stuff with poison? What if you brainwash me?"

Xiao Yan waved his hand and took the Soul Token. Just as he was about to walk out of the Soul Offering Old Shop, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, do you have any news about the Clear Soul Youlan here?"

This time, Xiao Yan didn't directly ask about news of the Strange Flame. He already knew where the Strange Flame was; instead, he inquired about the Clear Soul Youlan to obtain other information.

"Ten thousand Soul Points."

Xiao Yan sighed helplessly and handed over the Soul Token. After deducting ten thousand Soul Points from it, Soul Old Ghost handed Xiao Yan a jade tablet.

"The Clear Soul Youlan has appeared in the Deep Secluded Valley of the Chuyun Empire. This contains information about the Clear Soul Youlan and the Deep Secluded Valley, including some rumors and which forces will be heading to the Deep Secluded Valley."

Xiao Yan took the jade tablet, and the moment his Soul Power permeated into it, a stream of Soul information was transmitted into Xiao Yan's mind.

After reading all the information, Xiao Yan's expression suddenly became a little strange, and he murmured, "Medicine Clan? It's you again?"
