Chapter 268
Elsewhere, Lin Feng was riding on his saber qi.
He was excited! He hadn’t expected that collecting the seventh-grade spiritual fire would go so smoothly!
Jiang Chen hadn’t caused him any trouble either!
“Hmph, he must have sensed that I am now in the late Heavenly Origin stage and became afraid of me!” Lin Feng boasted with his arms crossed, feeling elated.
“He has Phoenix Fire, which could burn you to a crisp!” Old Man Tianji took the opportunity to throw cold water on his excitement.
“The power of Phoenix Fire is immense, maybe he hasn’t fully mastered it yet? Otherwise, tell me, why would he act like this?” Lin Feng retorted.
“…”
Old Man Tianji fell silent.
The recent events were indeed strange.
Not to mention that Lin Feng had changed so much, yet Jiang Chen was still able to recognize him.
Just one thing.
In the past, every time Jiang Chen saw Lin Feng, he would severely thrash him.
But this time?
Not only did he not thrash him, but he also watched Lin Feng leave.
More importantly, the look in Jiang Chen’s eyes as he watched Lin Feng leave was indeed a bit odd.
It was like… a father watching his son go on a long journey, filled with sighs and care.
This confused Old Man Tianji.
He secretly guessed that this was not in Jiang Chen’s nature and must have been influenced by some reason.
But even he, who knew the destinies of past and present, was clueless about this reason.
“You should find a place to refine that seventh-grade spiritual fire first to avoid any complications.” Old Man Tianji eventually suggested.
“Alright.”
Lin Feng saw no issue with that.
He looked down,
Soon, a cluster of red flames emerged from his forehead, which was his own sixth-grade spiritual fire.
Looking at this sixth-grade spiritual fire, Lin Feng felt sentimental.
Since becoming a disciple of the Ancient Pill Tower, he had shed his previous frustrations and finally lived up to the image of the Son of Destiny.
He was respected by his fellow disciples and protected by his master.
His master, Yu Shi, not only managed to get him a Nine Abyss Soul Embryo, but after Lin Feng had accumulated enough experience in the Way of the Pill, he also gifted him this sixth-grade spiritual fire!
It’s no exaggeration to say that this sixth-grade spiritual fire was the symbol of his rise in the Ancient Pill Tower!
If it weren’t for the fact that there was a better spiritual fire to replace it, he would have been somewhat reluctant to part with this sixth-grade spiritual fire.
“With a seventh-grade spiritual fire, coupled with your experience in the Way of the Pill, you can quickly advance to a seventh-grade pill refiner! That will be your true rise!” Old Man Tianji said.
“Mhm.”
Lin Feng nodded and took out a little green bottle from his spirit ring.
This bottle was unnamed and unranked, made by the Ancient Pill Tower from special materials, specifically for storing spiritual fires.
Lin Feng planned to first store the sixth-grade spiritual fire in it and then return it intact to his master Yu Shi when he got back to the Ancient Pill Tower.
After all, even though the Ancient Pill Tower was large and prosperous, sixth-grade spiritual fires were not plentiful.
Just as he was about to use his spiritual power to control and place the spiritual fire into the bottle, something unexpected happened.
With a “bang,” a cultivator with an ordinary face, ordinary clothes, and ordinary cultivation level burst out from the ice in front of Lin Feng!
“Haha! Lin Feng, I knew you would come here!” the ordinary cultivator laughed.
Taking advantage of Lin Feng’s confusion and Old Man Tianji’s stunned moment, the cultivator also took out a little green bottle and, wrapping his hand with spiritual energy, grabbed the sixth-grade spiritual fire closest to him and stuffed it into the bottle.
Then he immediately fled without looking back.
His speed was so fast that it caught him off guard!
“How dare you!!”
After snapping back to reality, Lin Feng was furious!
He, the Son of Destiny, had his spiritual fire stolen right under his nose?
This was intolerable!
What he couldn’t understand even more was that he had carefully checked just before, and there shouldn’t have been any other cultivators in this ice cave!
Now was not the time to ponder deeply.
Lin Feng, holding his black blade, was about to give chase.
“Are you stupid? If the sixth-grade spiritual fire is gone, it’s gone. The priority now is to refine the seventh-grade spiritual fire!” Old Man Tianji quickly stopped him.
Lin Feng was taken aback.
The seventh-grade spiritual fire was still floating in the air. Indeed, he couldn’t let anger cloud his judgment.
Reluctantly, he put away his black blade, intending to refine the seventh-grade spiritual fire first.
But just as he sat down cross-legged again,
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
“…”
Following several muffled explosion sounds, even more cultivators burst out of the ice.
These cultivators were also laughing maniacally, their eyes filled with malice, and they said in unison:
“Haha!! Lin Feng, I knew you would come here!”
