Next, he immediately opened the second wooden box.

As the lid tilted to the side, a crimson scroll appeared before his eyes.

Staring at the scroll, Lin Feng was slightly stunned at first, but then his eyes lit up.

He supported the wooden box in mid-air using Dou Qi, then stretched out his hand and slowly unrolled the scroll.

”Real Flame Creation Art”

A few blazing red characters were clearly imprinted onto the surface.

”This Flame Creation Art is the result of many years of painstaking refinement by this old man. In terms of rank, it can now be considered a High-Grade Earth Class cultivation technique!”

”The previous Flame Creation Art was powerful, but it required at least three people cultivating it together in order to condense a single ’Life Transforming Flame’.

Furthermore, each time it was condensed, the users would suffer great backlash. But after countless improvements by this old man, now—even cultivating it alone—one can still successfully condense a Life Transforming Flame.”

”Moreover, the power of this newly formed flame far surpasses the former version, and the side effects have also been greatly reduced. Although the refining process has become more complicated, compared to the advantages, such minor flaws can completely be overlooked.”

After reading the full description on the scroll, Lin Feng’s expression revealed a trace of emotion.

”This Old Ground Demon Ghost is extremely gifted in the field of dou techniques, it’s just a pity…”

Just as Lin Feng was immersed in the Flame Creation Art, a charming and seductive female voice suddenly rang beside his ear.

Hearing it, Lin Feng turned his gaze and glanced at the enchanting face just inches away.

Then, looking back at the crimson scroll, he smiled and said, ”That’s true. If that Old Ground Demon Ghost had put his energy into improving his own ice attribute cultivation techniques and dou techniques instead, maybe he could’ve achieved even more…”

However, toward the end of his words, Lin Feng’s tone shifted: ”But if I succeed in cultivating this Flame Creation Art, it’ll be a huge help to me when I venture into Central Plains later. That old ghost actually did me a big favor.”

With that, Lin Feng gently rolled up the scroll, placed it back into the wooden box, and then stored it in his storage ring.

”You really are lucky,”

Medusa’s red lips curved slightly, her tone tinged with emotion.

Who would have thought that a Seven-Star Dou Zong with ice attributes would go and refine a fire-type Mid-Grade Earth Class cultivation technique and this very scroll ended up in Lin Feng’s hands.

”Heh, my luck has always been good. Otherwise, how could I have run into you and—”

”Go check what’s in the next wooden box already!”

Hearing his words, a flush of red instantly spread across Medusa’s fair face as she interrupted him.

”…Alright.”

Seeing that she seemed a bit shy, Lin Feng didn’t continue teasing and turned to open the third wooden box.

Once the box was opened, inside was a fist-sized, crimson, round pearl.

From this fiery red pearl, both of them could feel—

That it contained an extremely violent and vast fire attribute energy.

”Could this be… the magic core of that Rank 7 serpent-type magic beast from earlier?!”

Seeing the red pearl, Medusa’s eyes flashed with a hint of shock.

On the side, Xiao Yixian and Zi Yan also walked up to Lin Feng upon hearing her exclamation.

Gazing at the magic core nestled inside the ancient wooden box, Xiao Yixian’s beautiful eyes quickly filled with surprise.

”To think that the core of that magic beast from earlier was actually stored here by that Old Ground Demon Ghost. I thought he had already traded it away.”

Feeling the scorching and violent energy emanating from the red orb, Xiao Yixian’s voice was filled with astonishment.

”Maybe he kept it for personal use.”

Lin Feng toyed with the magic core in his hand and casually replied.

Then, under the gaze of the three girls, he placed it back into the wooden box and stored it in his storage ring.

Immediately after, Lin Feng opened the last wooden box.

Unlike the previous three items that were eye-catching—

This time, inside the wooden box was only a single gray-brown bamboo scroll, plain and ordinary in appearance.

But the moment he saw this seemingly unremarkable scroll, Lin Feng’s heart surged with joy.

He had already guessed what kind of secret method might be recorded within.

”Huh? Was that old man senile or something? Why would he store such a tattered bamboo scroll so carefully, even using a spatial light barrier to protect it?”

Zi Yan curled her lips with disdain as she looked at the aged bamboo scroll.

”That’s not right. Since that Old Ground Demon Ghost took such great care to preserve this scroll, it must contain something extremely important,”

Xiao Yixian immediately countered the little girl’s comment.

”Indeed. That old guy wouldn’t do something so boring for no reason. This scroll definitely hides a secret that others wouldn’t know.”

Medusa frowned as she stared at the gray-brown scroll.

Its material looked very ordinary.

But without opening it, there was no way to understand the mystery within.

”In that case, let’s have a look.”

Seeing the others were just as curious, Lin Feng smiled slightly and quickly took the scroll out.

After gently removing the thin string wrapped around the bamboo scroll, Lin Feng slowly began to unroll it.

”Sky Demon Puppet!”

As soon as he opened a small portion of it, a few savage, blood-red characters suddenly leapt into the sight of all four of them.

”Ew… this thing even uses such a nasty-looking ink. Just from the color, you can tell it’s not anything good,”

Zi Yan’s lips curled up in disgust as she stared at the blood-soaked characters.

”Sky Demon Puppet? Could it be a secret method for refining puppets?”

Seeing the name, Medusa was momentarily stunned, then asked curiously.

Even though she hadn’t seen all the contents yet, just from the three characters Sky Demon Puppet, she could already make some guesses.

While she was speaking, Lin Feng had already finished unrolling the bamboo scroll completely.

At that moment, dense blood-red writing, carrying a strange and bloodthirsty aura, appeared across the scroll for all of them to see.

”Sky Demon Puppet — this secret method is neither a cultivation technique nor an ordinary dou technique, but rather a puppet refinement technique passed down from ancient times!”

”To refine a Sky Demon Puppet, three components must be gathered: the body, the soul, and the magic core!”

”The body serves as the vessel, the soul as the guide, and the magic core as the heart—supplemented with various metals to enhance the puppet’s physical toughness—only then can one forge a true Demon Puppet.”

”Demon Puppets are ranked in three tiers: Heaven, Earth, and Human. The difference in level depends on the materials used and the refining flame.”

”Once a Demon Puppet is successfully refined, it possesses immense power. It feels neither joy nor sorrow, knows neither pain nor injury—a true weapon of slaughter!”

”…”

”Looks like this Old Ground Demon Ghost was guarding something incredible!”

Xiao Yixian’s beautiful eyes scanned over the scroll’s blood-red text, her pupils suddenly contracting in shock.

Even she, a Dou Zong-level expert, was seeing such an ancient and eerie puppet refinement technique for the very first time.
