”Hehe, I’ve already thought about that.”

Gazing at that enchanting face, Lin Feng continued, ”The reason I’m targeting the Fallen Heart Flame isn’t just because of its inherent value. I also know a piece of information: beneath the magma under the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, a Dou Zun expert once fell there. Maybe… he can help us subdue the Heavenly Flame.”

”Dou Zun!”

Hearing about such a legendary-level powerhouse all of a sudden, Medusa’s beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief.

Her body instinctively sat upright.

”That’s right. And it seems that Dou Zun was the former owner of the Fallen Heart Flame before his death,” Lin Feng said lazily, gazing up at the breathtaking view before him.

Anyway, judging from the time they’d spent together, Medusa didn’t seem like someone who would betray him for the sake of monopolizing a Dou Zun’s legacy.

Telling her a little inside information was no big deal.

After all, given how close they were now, there had to be some trust between them.

Upon hearing this, Medusa was first overjoyed, but soon frowned and said,

”Even if he was strong in life, he’s already fallen. Everything would’ve vanished with him. How could he still help you subdue the Heavenly Flame?”

”No,” Lin Feng shook his head slightly, his expression a bit mysterious.

”To my knowledge, once a cultivator reaches a certain level of strength, their soul also becomes extremely powerful. Even if the physical body perishes, the soul can still survive. If one possesses certain secret methods, it might even be possible for them to revive!”

”Oh? There’s such a thing?”

Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Medusa was once again shocked.

This was the first time she had heard of such information.

She couldn’t help but sigh: ”Even Dou Zong cultivators can’t achieve something like that.

It seems that a legendary Dou Zun expert really is far beyond what we Dou Zong can compare to...”

”Hehe, no need to get caught up in that. Let’s get back to finishing what we left unfinished earlier.”

Staring at the stunning figure before him, Lin Feng couldn’t help but recall the feeling of floating bliss from before.

He could no longer hold himself back.

As he spoke, he wrapped an arm around Medusa’s slender waist, pulling her back into his embrace, before rolling over and pressing her down once more.

——

By noon the next day, after a long, lazy delay, Lin Feng finally got out of bed.

Glancing at the beautiful woman still sleeping beside him, he gently pulled the covers up to keep her warm, then walked out and headed toward the newly built alchemy room nearby.

A few months ago, when he was refining the Dou Spirit Pill, he had noticed that the original alchemy room’s materials could no longer keep up with his current skills.

The aura during pill formation would leak outward.

So, he ordered his subordinates to rebuild the alchemy room, upgrading the materials.

They claimed it could even contain the aura from the formation of a Mighty Huang Pill.

Not that he bothered verifying it—he had already spent the money.

If, by the time he was able to refine a Mighty Huang Pill, it turned out the materials couldn’t contain it, he’d simply drag out the responsible party and have their whole family executed.

Upon entering the alchemy room, Lin Feng took out a six-spouted, blue-black medicinal cauldron he had acquired when he destroyed the Eight Gates faction.

Taking a deep breath, he channeled the beast flame within his body and infused it into the cauldron.

Then, with a flick of his ring finger, he retrieved an Eight Spirit Magic Needle Fruit and tossed it inside.

Immediately, a surge of crimson flames rose up inside the cauldron, enveloping the medicinal herb.

Since he had already tried refining it a few times before—although all ended in failure—

he was now very clear about the exact temperatures needed for refining each of the ingredients.

Under continuous roasting at the appropriate temperature, even this powerful herb soon couldn’t hold on any longer.

Its outer skin began gradually turning into black ash, flaking off and falling to the bottom of the cauldron.

This process lasted about half an hour.

At last, the first cluster of medicinal essence was successfully refined.

Without pause, Lin Feng tossed a Green Lucid Flower into the cauldron, repeating the process from earlier.

The blazing red flames burned fiercely, causing the white glow of the illuminating stones in the alchemy room to be slightly tinted with a different hue.

After refining the Green Lucid Flower, Lin Feng continued refining the Soul Mending Wood and Soul Containing Flower.

Once he successfully extracted a set of medicinal essences, Lin Feng glanced at the hourglass beside him.

”Sigh, refining these sixth-tier pills really does take much more time compared to fifth-tier ones,” he sighed, gazing at the pile of medicinal materials on the ground, which had taken three whole hours to refine.

He then tossed them back into the cauldron and began attempting to fuse them.

As the various medicinal liquids slowly drew closer, the repulsive force emitted from within the liquid also intensified drastically.

Ignoring the sweat dripping down his face, Lin Feng poured his soul power, leaving only a thread to maintain the flame’s temperature.

The rest was fully unleashed onto the medicinal liquids, slowly forcing them to press together.

The collision between his soul power and the repulsive force created waves of impact, battering the inner walls of the cauldron like relentless tides.

Crisp, bell-like sounds echoed continuously throughout the alchemy room.

Bang!

Just as the fusion was more than halfway complete, Lin Feng lost control for a moment, causing the flame to fluctuate slightly.

In that instant, the medicinal ingredients inside the cauldron—worth over a million gold coins—turned into a pile of ashes, and were expelled by a special mechanism inside the cauldron.

Seeing this scene, Lin Feng let out a sigh. After resting for a while, he began refining once more.

As one batch of medicinal ingredients after another was refined, Lin Feng once again reached the fusion stage.

Under the pressure of his powerful soul power, the differently colored medicinal liquids inside the cauldron were slowly forced to merge together.

Staring at the gradually unifying liquids, Lin Feng carefully controlled the flame, fearful of another incident like before.

As time ticked by, two more hours passed in the blink of an eye.

By now, the medicinal essence inside the cauldron had completely fused into a mass of light blue medicinal liquid.

Seeing this, Lin Feng immediately increased the temperature and began solidifying the liquid into a pill.

However, after only a short while, with a muffled sound, the almost fully formed, irregularly shaped solid collapsed again.

”Sigh, just one step away... what a pity.”

Looking at the solidified lump before him, Lin Feng brushed it aside.

He carefully recalled the details of his previous two failed attempts, along with the insights recorded in the alchemy notes he had exchanged from Xiao Yan.

Suddenly, Lin Feng opened his eyes wide and tossed the last set of medicinal ingredients into the cauldron.

Clang!

Several hours later, accompanied by waves of dense energy ripples crashing against the cauldron with booming sounds,

Lin Feng finally succeeded in refining the first sixth-tier pill of his life.

Soon after, under the impact of the faintly blue energy pillar, the lid of the cauldron was blasted straight up to the ceiling of the alchemy room.

Then, under the pull of gravity, it came crashing down to the floor.

Once the lingering energy ripples fully dissipated, Lin Feng waved his palm, and a light blue pill swiftly flew into his hand.
