Chapter 144: Chapter 144: Grand Elder Emerges

In Feng City, a figure stood by the window, hands resting on the sill, gazing at the azure sky. A large maple leaf emblem adorned the back of his clothes.

"Master, the goods have been delivered to that lad's hands," a voice suddenly sounded inside the room.

At some point, a ghostly figure appeared in the middle of the room, kneeling before the figure by the window.

"Mm," Han Feng responded indifferently without turning around.

"Master, shall I teach that lad a lesson?" the person hesitated for a second before asking.

No news for half a year. Suddenly, he asks for the blood of a Sixth Rank Magic Beast, like a lion opening its mouth wide.

What if he deliberately deceived us for the goods? "No need to worry. Just a bit of Sixth Rank Magic Beast blood, it's nothing to me," Han Feng waved his hand. "Han Beng, you may leave."

"Yes." Han Beng's eyes flashed with surprise. Did the master really trust that kid so much?

Without further questions, he respectfully bowed and disappeared once again.

"Short term, half a year; long term, a year... Lin Xiu, in the Black-Corner Region, no one has dared to deceive me, Medicine Emperor Han Feng!" Han Feng's gaze fell on a piece of paper in his palm.

It contained the information Lin Xiu had passed to him, mainly confirming the existence of the Fallen Heart Flame. Just this was enough to satisfy Han Feng.

"Invisible and colorless, manifested through borrowing the heart... How could a mere student understand these? The only possibility is that he has seen it with his own eyes!"

He had originally planned to directly gather manpower, preparing to take action against Jia Nan Academy. But this Lin Xiu seemed to be able to guess his thoughts. In the end, he mentioned that the Fallen Heart Flame had been restless recently, and perhaps it would erupt completely soon.

The location of Jia Nan Academy in the Black-Corner Region was not a secret; everyone knew its approximate position. However, the difficulty in finding and entering the inner courtyard was due to the Academy setting up a barrier. If one were to forcefully break through, it would certainly require a lot of effort.

"And indeed, there are many strong individuals within the inner courtyard of Jia Nan Academy, with Grand Elder Su Qian being a Dou Ancestor. Although I can invite the Gold and Silver Elders, these two are not Dou Ancestors. Moreover, with the Fallen Heart Flame still sealed, it wouldn't be a wise suggestion to wait for its complete eruption. Anyway, we have waited for so many years; a little longer won't hurt.

As for this Lin Xiu... being so dedicated to me, it's somewhat intriguing. When I successfully obtain the Fallen Heart Flame, I'll see if I can recruit him for my use."

A Dou King in his early twenties, even though he had followed the old man before, had only seen a few individuals with such extraordinary talents. He seems to be interested in alchemy. Perhaps I can start from this aspect," Han Feng smirked. As a Sixth Grade alchemist, he was very confident in alchemy.

With a flash of blue flame, the piece of paper turned into black ash and scattered.

...

Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, eighth floor. In the cultivation chamber, Lin Xiu sat cross-legged on a black stone platform. A glimmer of light flashed from his ring, and then a jade bottle fell into his palm.

"With the Sixth Rank Magic Beast blood in hand, my Aptitude can be increased to 60," Lin Xiu murmured, his lips curling slightly. "To establish a Feng City in the Black-Corner Region, Han Feng must not be a fool. I made myself clear; he probably won't act impulsively and lead people to break into the inner courtyard prematurely."

With this in mind, he used the Magic Beast blood.

[Aptitude: 50——60]

On the panel, both Aptitude and Attribute Points changed.

"After the increase in Aptitude, my cultivation speed has accelerated significantly again. Even without relying on the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, I can gain nearly ten thousand experience points in a day."

Roughly calculating, Lin Xiu was very satisfied with his current situation. The higher his strength before the eruption of the Fallen Heart Flame, the greater his chances.

At this moment, a light suddenly flickered in the cultivation chamber. Lin Xiu stood up and opened the door.

Outside stood an elder, a smile on his face. "Lin Xiu, do you need fire today?"

"Elder Wang's arrangement is fine. There's no problem on my side," Lin Xiu replied.

"Alright, then I'll arrange another strand for you."

The elder nodded, then changed the subject, "Lin Xiu, you've been practicing on the eighth floor for almost half a year now. How is the Fire Spirit cultivation progressing?"

"It's alright. It has already recovered to its original Rank 5 Beast Flame level."

Lin Xiu had never been asked about his progress before, and his first reaction was clearly a moment of bewilderment. He decided to give a conservative answer.

"Rank 5? It seems that the Flame Soul Separation Technique and your compatibility are quite high. Keep up the good work. Grand Elder will be emerging from seclusion in the next few days, and he might need your cooperation then," Elder Wang smiled and left.

As the door to the cultivation chamber closed, Lin Xiu's expression changed instantly.

Grand Elder coming out of seclusion?

What does that mean? Does he want to check on the growth of my Fire Spirit?

If I show it, Grand Elder will definitely recognize that the Fire Spirit has entered its mature stage.

In that case, the plan against the Fallen Heart Flame might start earlier!

While it was true that Lin Xiu possessed the strength of a Dou King, having him seize the Fallen Heart Flame in front of many elders...

It's a bit of daydreaming...

"Should I find a reason to go out and hide for a while?" Lin Xiu thought to himself, but immediately shook his head. It wasn't quite appropriate. There were still at least three months until the eruption of the Fallen Heart Flame. He still needed to obtain two other types of flames from Xiao Yan. It wasn't possible to stay away from the Academy forever.

The air in the room gradually warmed up, indicating that Elder Wang had already begun.

Lin Xiu focused his thoughts, preparing to deal with the imminent fire.

Meanwhile...

A figure dressed in black robes, with all-white hair and beard, suddenly appeared at the entrance of the first floor of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower. Not far away, Elder Liu was inspecting the situation on the first floor. His gaze inadvertently glanced over and froze in place.

After two seconds, Elder Liu, who had reacted, hurried over to the old man. "Grand Elder, why have you come?"

"Ah, Liu Hai? You're on duty again today," the old man nodded slightly and walked towards the tower. "I heard that there have been more and more disturbances in the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower recently, so I came to take a look."

"Yes, Grand Elder. The Fallen Heart Flame used to move once a month, but recently it has been moving every half month," Elder Liu's brow furrowed with anxiety.

This kind of situation usually occurred when the seal was weakening, compounded by the increasing strength of the Fallen Heart Flame.

"Faster and faster, huh?" The old man paused, sighed lightly, and patted Elder Liu's shoulder. "It's alright. This time, there's a little guy who has mastered the Flame Soul Separation Technique. I'll go check on his progress. If it's suitable, I'll immediately arrange for the elders to plan and try to restore that thing to its original state."

"Grand Elder is referring to Lin Xiu, right? He should be about ready. Over a year ago, he started practicing, and this year he spent nearly half a year cultivating on the eighth floor. Other elders also specially arranged for flame feeding," Elder Liu said with a smile.

If his old friend saw the Dou Technique he had created successfully resolving the Academy's hidden dangers, perhaps even in the afterlife, they would feel happy.

The old man had the same idea. This time, he decided to go personally and see what realm the Fire Spirit had reached. Elder Liu escorted him to the entrance, watching as the old man's figure disappeared into the passage.

"Lin Xiu, your opportunity has come. Make sure to seize it. When you successfully resolve the threat of the Fallen Heart Flame, you will surely be the greatest hero," Elder Liu murmured softly, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Perhaps when we meet again, I'll have to address him as Elder Lin."
