The Target Is Disha Hall

"Fu Ling Qing Pill?"

Heavenly Flame Venerable was momentarily stunned upon hearing this, then the fervor in his eyes surged dramatically, a hint of excitement flashing across his face.

"Is it the Fu Ling Qing Pill that's reputed to restore those whose strength has declined back to their peak?"

Heavenly Flame Venerable had indeed heard of the Fu Ling Qing Pill. He had once heard of this Eight Grade pill at an auction in Central State.

This was a low-level Eight Grade pill specifically for Dou Zun, allowing Dou Zun experts whose cultivation had regressed to recover to the strength of a Three-Star Dou Zun.

Xiao Yan was already a Rank 7 High-Level Alchemist, and he had two years before he would participate in the Pill Gathering. At this Pill Gathering, Xiao Yan would have to refine a pill that could attract Pill Lightning of at least two colors to have a chance of defeating Mu Gu.

In other words, Xiao Yan had to step into the Eight Grade.

The Fu Ling Qing Pill, a low-level Eight Grade pill, was not considered difficult within the realm of the Eight Grade. Ordinary Fu Ling Qing Pills could only attract one Pill Lightning, and only those of excellent quality could attract two colors of Pill Lightning.

Seven Grade pills had one Pill Lightning, and some Rank 7 Peak Alchemists had a certain success rate in refining relatively simple Eight Grade pills, but they might not necessarily attract a second Pill Lightning.

To become a true Eight Grade Alchemist, one had to not only refine Eight Grade pills but also attract at least two Pill Lightning.

Xiao Yan planned to refine the Fu Ling Qing Pill as the pill to step into the threshold of the Eight Grade. If he could refine a Fu Ling Qing Pill with two Pill Lightning, he could not only step into the Eight Grade but also restore Heavenly Flame Venerable to the peak of a Three-Star Dou Zun, assisting the Flame Alliance.

To gain a foothold in Central State, the Flame Alliance had to have a Dou Zun who could step forward.

Heavenly Flame Venerable looked at the smiling Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan's resurrection of him was not free. To put it bluntly, Heavenly Flame Venerable still had to work for Xiao Yan for several years.

"Xiao Yan, what do you want?" Heavenly Flame Venerable asked Xiao Yan, knowing that this guy would definitely not give it to him for free.

Although Heavenly Flame Venerable had been a great help, that was also his duty, and an Eight Grade pill was enough to make a Dou Zun risk his life for it.

Alchemists, alchemists, they were truly both loved and hated.

Xiao Yan said with a grin, "Yao Old Mister, are you interested in joining the Soul Palace?"

Heavenly Flame Venerable opened his mouth, his eyes somewhat dull. The Soul Palace was not an organization with a good reputation. To put it bluntly, it was a ruthless and evil organization that specialized in hunting Alchemists and Soul Bodies.

He had once been a Soul Body and was afraid of encountering the Soul Palace. But what he feared came true, and he really encountered Flame Venerable.

Now he was even being wooed to join??

"This this…" Heavenly Flame Venerable didn't know how to answer him for a moment.

In fact, Heavenly Flame Venerable was not considered a member of the Flame Alliance. More accurately, he owed Xiao Yan a favor and would be Xiao Yan's bodyguard for ten years.

But if he joined the Soul Palace, it would be more than just ten years.

However, the temptation of an Eight Grade pill was indeed difficult for him to give up, especially the Fu Ling Qing Pill, which was very suitable for his current use!

Moreover, he believed that the Fu Ling Qing Pill refined by Xiao Yan would definitely attract two Pill Lightning, allowing his cultivation to reach the peak of a Three-Star Dou Zun.

An increase of two stars, almost three stars, would directly save him more than ten, no, dozens of years of cultivation! Heavenly Flame Venerable's body was young, but his Soul Body was not young. Without the Fu Ling Qing Pill, he might not be able to return to his peak even in his old age.

What was saved was not just time but also life. With the Fu Ling Qing Pill, Heavenly Flame Venerable could even create brilliance again, with the opportunity to reach higher levels, Advanced Dou Zun or even Nine-Star Dou Zun!

It was normal for Heavenly Flame Venerable to hesitate. The Soul Palace definitely had 'performance' requirements, which meant that Heavenly Flame Venerable would have to force himself to hunt some Soul Bodies.

As a Venerable, Xiao Yan's status and obligations were proportional. However, his identity was special. If he didn't have enough Soul Bodies, he could make up for it with pills. But it was already obvious just now that the six-figure Soul Point was a wave of landing ashore.

At least this year's performance had been met!

At this time, Xiao Yan and Xiao Li exchanged a glance, and Xiao Li slowly said, "Heavenly Flame Venerable, in fact, joining the Soul Palace does not have too many restrictions. We cultivators defy the heavens, make enemies, and decisive killing is fundamental."

"We treat our enemies with absolute extermination, not giving them a chance to escape as Soul Bodies. This is not wrong. We are dealing with our enemies."

Wooing Heavenly Flame Venerable to join the Soul Palace was actually Xiao Li's idea. Although the Soul Palace of Yunlan Sect had Xiao Yan as a Venerable, its actual strength could only be considered the weakest Soul Palace among all the Soul Palaces in the Dou Qi Continent.

In addition to the Soul Palace in Yunlan Sect, there were two other Soul Palaces in the Northwest Region.

There was also a Soul Palace in the Sky Burial Creek of the Heavenly Heart Empire, which was temporarily managed by a Human Rank Protector named Tie Protector. This was a relatively weak Soul Palace.

The reason why Xiao Li wanted to woo Heavenly Flame Venerable to join the Soul Palace was another Soul Palace, located in the Lion Nether Empire where the Lion Nether Sect was located, and that Soul Palace existed in the ocean.

Because that ocean looked blue, the Venerable who managed that Soul Palace was called Qing Hai Venerable, and his strength was astonishing.

Originally, the three Soul Palaces in the Northwest Region should have been managed by him, but due to the appearance of Xiao Yan, there was a divergence.

Xiao Li estimated that if the Flame Alliance continued to expand its power, the Soul Palace of Yunlan Sect would sooner or later conflict with Qing Hai Venerable.

Naturally, there could not be only one Soul Palace. The Heaven, Earth, and Human Palaces were respectively managed by the Hall Master, Deputy Hall Master, and Great Tian Zun of the Soul Palace. Below these were the twenty-four Disha Halls, generally managed by the Nine Great Tian Zun and the Black and White Tian Zun and other Tian Zun.

Besides the main halls, the other branch halls were like the one Xiao Yan was in.

Naturally, the stronger the branch hall, the more resources it would receive.

The Xiao Yan trio planned to dominate both the light and dark sides! That's why they intended to recruit Heavenly Flame Venerable, to enhance their Soul Palace's strength. If they could incorporate the other two branch halls, they might have a chance to become one of the twenty-four Disha Halls!

Now, Xiao Li understood the Soul Palace even better than Xiao Yan, the Venerable.

Looking at Xiao Yan, Heavenly Flame Venerable sighed, "Following you, there's no way to avoid fighting. Joining it is then."

Xiao Yan and Xiao Li exchanged glances, their hearts already filled with a 'Jie Jie Jie' (sinister laughter).

Xiao Yan took out the Soul Token and placed it on the Soul Offering Altar. He formed a hand seal, and a burst of black mist emerged from the altar. A black pouch-like object appeared from within the mist.

Generally, Soul Envoys hunted Soul Bodies below the Dou Wang (Fighting King) level, using Soul Stones to collect them. Protectors, on the other hand, hunted Dou Huang and Dou Zong, using the pouch-like object in the black mist, called a Soul Pouch.

Even Xiao Yan couldn't immediately make Heavenly Flame Venerable a Soul Palace Venerable. Although Heavenly Flame Venerable's strength reached Dou Zun, there were quite a few in the Soul Palace whose strength reached Dou Zun but were still Heaven Rank Protectors.

"Yao Old Mister, this is the Soul Pouch for Heaven Rank Protectors. The Soul Robe for Heaven Rank Protectors will be sent by the Soul Palace's Law Enforcers, which will take some time." Xiao Yan handed the Soul Pouch to Heavenly Flame Venerable, smiling.

Seeing the Soul Pouch, Heavenly Flame Venerable was somewhat surprised and said, "This is a valuable treasure, at least a Rank 7 storage tool, maybe even Rank 8."

The Soul Pouch wasn't just for collecting Soul Bodies. If Heavenly Flame Venerable were to be in a situation like before, his Soul Body could be stored in the Soul Pouch to preserve it, awaiting rescue.

Xiao Yan suddenly said in a deep voice, "Second Brother, we must obtain the Bodhi Transformation Saliva within a year, no matter the cost."

Seeing Xiao Yan's expression, Xiao Li understood the seriousness of the matter and nodded heavily, "I understand. I will spare no expense to have the other Soul Palace Protectors help search."

After resolving the matter, Xiao Yan left the Soul Palace and headed to the Alchemist Guild. He needed a large amount of Medicinal Herbs now!

Naturally, he wouldn't exchange for Medicinal Herbs at the Soul Palace. Xiao Yan planned to refine Rank 7 Pills and exchange them with the Alchemist Guild for the Medicinal Herbs needed for the Rank 8 Fu Ling Qing Pill.

Xiao Yan didn't allow the Alchemist Guild to join the Flame Alliance, because this way, he could maintain a channel of communication with the Pill Tower. If he needed high-level Medicinal Herbs, he could exchange them through Fa Ma.

Hearing that Xiao Yan wanted to exchange for a Rank 7 Peak Pill Recipe called Grandmaster Pill, along with three Grandmaster Pills, and some Rank 8 Low-Level main Medicinal Herbs, Fa Ma was stunned for three minutes, dumbfounded.

Medicine Venerable didn't have a Pill Recipe that could guarantee a breakthrough to Dou Zong. Xiao Yan had investigated, and a Rank 7 Peak Pill called Grandmaster Pill could allow a Nine Star Dou Huang to break through to Dou Zong with certainty, so he came to exchange for it.

"You can refine Grandmaster Pills?" Rank 7 Peak Pills!

But after asking, Fa Ma felt that he was being redundant. Xiao Yan was acquiring so many Rank 8 Low-Level main Medicinal Herbs, wasn't he preparing to start practicing and then step into the Rank 8 realm?

Rank 8! Fa Ma felt that his worldview had collapsed!

Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head, "Guild Leader Fa Ma, I'm still Rank 7 High-Level now, planning to refine some Rank 7 Peak Pills to improve my Alchemy skills. I'm taking this opportunity to acquire some Rank 8 Medicinal Herbs."

"Rank 7 High-Level... Sigh, forget it, forget it. It's not the first day I've known about your Alchemy talent. You plan to use Rank 7 Pills to exchange for these Medicinal Herbs and Pill Recipe?" Guild Leader Fa Ma waved his hand, indicating that he didn't want to talk to Xiao Yan anymore, it was pointless.

"Yes, I can refine Rank 7 High-Level Pills. If the Medicinal Herbs exchanger needs it, I can help refine any Rank 7 High-Level Pill as a reward, and I can refine with a Strange Flame. Of course, they have to be able to afford the price." Xiao Yan smiled. He wasn't an ordinary Rank 7 High-Level Alchemist, his worth was top-notch.

"Alright, I'll help you communicate with the headquarters. The Pills refined by an Alchemist like you are probably hot commodities even in Central State." Fa Ma stroked his beard and smiled. Xiao Yan had become famous, so his Gama Empire Alchemist Guild was also rising in prominence, naturally he was happy to help.

After leaving the Alchemist Guild, Xiao Yan came to the peak of a mountain outside Holy City and found the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King. He was naturally here to fulfill his promise.

"Hey, Xiao Yan, when are you going to refine Pills for me!" Zi Yan pouted. She was also here. The environment here was comfortable, and she liked to rest on the mountain peak.

She was only short of the Pills refined by Xiao Yan to break through to Seventh Order. She had caught no shortage of Dou Zong for Xiao Yan in this battle! Xiao Yan touched Zi Yan's little head and smiled, "Didn't I come? Wait for me to hand over the things to the Lion King, and after I'm done, I'll refine Pills for you and help you break through!"

"Hehehe, that's good." Zi Yan swung her purple pigtails and waved her sleeves.

For Zi Yan of the Void Ancient Dragon race, breaking through a level didn't require the use of Pills like the Sect Breakthrough Pill or Huangtian Pill to help.

Magical Beasts didn't have bottlenecks when breaking through, they only had growth. But Magical Beasts had bloodline shackles. If the bloodline was low-level, they wouldn't be able to break through for their entire lives, no matter how much energy they had.

It was like Medusa Queen, the limit of the Medusa race was Dou Zong, they couldn't reach Dou Zun, otherwise she wouldn't have wanted to use a Strange Flame to evolve and break through the shackles of her bloodline.

As for the Void Ancient Dragon race, Xiao Yan conservatively estimated that there couldn't be shackles below Dou Zun. Zi Yan only needed enough energy.

Hearing that Xiao Yan had come to find him, the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King stood up abruptly, his expression somewhat nervous.

Could it be!!

Seeing the Lion King's nervous appearance, Little Fairy Doctor, who was planting herbs nearby, couldn't help but smile.

Xiao Yan didn't tease the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King. He took out a brocade box from his Storage Ring and slowly opened it. Two blood-red Pills lay quietly inside. The Pills were as blood-red as fire, and a red Pill fragrance wafted over.

Transformation Pill! "Two?" The Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King was stunned and asked.

"Lion King, rest assured, the promise I made you back then is still valid. This extra one is the reward for you taking care of Little Fairy Doctor and fighting for the Flame Alliance. Little Lion King is also at Fifth Order Peak, the sooner it transforms, the better for it."

The Little Lion King's eyes shone brightly, this was actually for it!

The Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King quickly thanked him, "Thank you, Xiao Yan Master, I will definitely remember this kindness."

"Alright, alright, this is my promise to you, Lion King, I didn't do much. Hurry up and refine it, or someone might steal it," Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"What! I've already eaten a Transformation Pill!" Zi Yan puffed out her chest, then said with a smile, "But if you give me another one, I can eat it too."

Xiao Yan just glanced at Zi Yan, how could he pay attention to her? Giving her a Transformation Pill would be a waste of its effects, and Transformation Pills weren't that easy to refine. Xiao Yan not only didn't have any Medicinal Herbs now, but it also took almost half a month to refine a single Transformation Pill.

Pill Refining is a hard job.

Xiao Yan looked to the side. Today's Little Fairy Doctor was wearing a white dress, her white hair cascading down like a waterfall. Her Jade Hand was patiently planting Medicinal Herbs. That Jade Hand was like a lotus emerging from the mud, unstained, and the little bit of dirt made it even more sacred.

Those pair of gray-purple eyes, compared to the battlefield, had less indifference and more gentleness.

Seeing the white hair swaying in the wind, Xiao Yan's heart darkened, and he sat down on the ground with a thud.

"The ground is dirty," Little Fairy Doctor said softly.

"You're still in the mood to plant Medicinal Herbs…" Xiao Yan looked at Little Fairy Doctor with some guilt. The Calamity Poison Body would erupt ahead of schedule, all because of protecting the Flame Alliance.

Little Fairy Doctor wiped her forehead with her hand, revealing a distressing smile, "It was my decision to take action, it's not your fault. The Gama Empire is also the country where I was born, I can't let it be destroyed."

Xiao Yan was silent, then reached out and gently wiped away a speck of dirt on Little Fairy Doctor's face, unwilling to let it be covered by the mud.
