”My great-aunt, have you eaten enough already?!”

While Lin Feng was threatening the Mystic Water Tiger Flood Dragon and seizing the Pill Soul Serum from its grasp, at the top of a mountain that looked like a pillar supporting the heavens, a series of heart-wrenching beastly roars suddenly echoed out.

At the peak, towering high into the clouds, stood a grand palace built entirely from massive boulders.

Outside the hall, two ferocious beasts lay crouched on either side as guards.

Faint traces of vicious and oppressive aura leaked uncontrollably from their bodies.Judging by their power, they were even stronger than the Mystic Water Tiger Flood Dragon that Lin Feng had encountered earlier.

However, when those two fierce guardians heard the repeated roars of anguish from within the hall, they merely lifted their eyelids slightly before lowering their heads again, pretending they hadn’t heard a thing.

After all, as magic beasts at the peak of the Dou Zong realm, their intelligence was in no way inferior to that of humans. They knew well that whatever was happening inside between those two—was not something they could interfere with.

At the far end of the great hall, built entirely of stone, there was a vast open space. At this moment, that space was filled with countless precious medicinal ingredients neatly arranged in piles.

If a renowned alchemist were to see this scene, they would undoubtedly be shocked speechless on the spot. Because any one of these herbs, taken out alone, would be enough to make even a seventh-tier or eighth-tier alchemist drool with envy.

Yet here, they were treated as casually as piles of common cabbage. Among all these heavenly treasures stood a burly, shirtless man, nearly three meters tall. He didn’t move at all—just stood there—but even so, he gave off the steady and imposing presence of a towering mountain.

However, this man, who looked like someone you absolutely wouldn’t want to provoke, now wore an expression as though he were on the verge of tears, his eyes fixed on the center of the open ground.

There, a young girl around sixteen years old with long violet hair was holding in her hand a rare herb that would make even an eighth-tier alchemy grandmaster’s eyes light up.

Staring at the herb with sparkling eyes full of appetite, she showed no hesitation before tossing it straight into her mouth. Her pearly white teeth bit into it, producing crisp crunching sounds that made the big man’s heart ache so badly it felt like it was bleeding.

After all, every single herb here had been painstakingly gathered over thousands of years—ever since those humans who used to exploit them withdrew from this realm.

If he hadn’t been lucky enough to become the strongest magic beast in this Ten Thousand Medicinal Mountain Range after those humans left, then with his current strength of an early-stage Rank 8 magic beast, he would have been lucky to collect even a few of these herbs in the outside world.

”Little Xiongzi, what are you howling for? Once I’m full and meet up with Lin Feng, I’ll take you away from here to live on Dragon Island. Isn’t that way better than this shabby little world?”

The purple-haired girl spoke while continuing to stuff mouthfuls of herbs into her mouth. Her small, porcelain-like face wrinkled slightly in displeasure, clearly irritated by the big man’s pained expression.

Then, perhaps fearing he wouldn’t believe her, she added, ”Relax, your great-aunt here has already broken through to the Dou Zun realm! Tearing open the space of this little world is child’s play for me.”

”Sigh… fine then.”

Hearing that he might finally be able to leave, the big man let out a long sigh before replying helplessly. Though he lacked nothing in this Pill Realm—plenty of medicinal herbs, endless cultivation resources— it still couldn’t fill the emptiness in his heart.

In these short thousand years, by relying on the abundant herbs here, he had advanced from Rank 7 to Rank 7. But no matter how rich the resources, they couldn’t satisfy his yearning for freedom.

After all, being trapped in one place for over a thousand years—anyone would long for the outside world eventually.

”Roar! Roar! Roar!”

Just as the big man was sighing in frustration, a massive beast suddenly charged into the hall in a panic from outside.

”You bastard! Why aren’t you standing guard outside? What the hell are you doing running in here?!”

The burly man’s mood was already foul, and seeing his subordinate rushing in all flustered only made him snap.

”Boss, bad news! There’s a Dou Zun powerhouse charging straight up from the foot of the mountain! I only managed to sneak away and warn you while he was bullying that Mystic Water Tiger Flood Dragon halfway up the slope!”

The beast that had run all the way here to deliver the news froze when it was met with a barrage of curses. Its tone turned aggrieved.

”What? How could there be a Dou Zun among the participants of this Pill Gathering?!”

The moment he heard this, the big man’s expression changed drastically.

Ever since the experts of the Dan Tower withdrew from this realm, so many Pill Gatherings had been held—yet never once had a Dou Zun-level participant appeared. Now suddenly, one shows up? How could he not be shocked?

”No problem! If that guy dares cause trouble while I’m eating, I’ll just punch him flat!”

Seeing someone daring to mess around during her meal, Zi Yan immediately jumped up, whipping her long violet ponytail as she spoke with unshakable confidence.

After being forced to consume countless medicinal herbs and pills back on Eastern Dragon Island, and cultivating with those Ancient Void Dragon techniques, she had already completed her closed-door breakthrough a few days ago—successfully stepping into the Dou Zun realm.

Now that someone dared to provoke her, she clenched her fair, delicate fists in excitement. Since advancing to Dou Zun, she hadn’t yet had a proper fight to stretch her muscles. Now that she finally had a sandbag delivered right to her door, there was no way she’d miss the chance.

”Whoosh~”

Just as her words fell, a figure streaked across the horizon at incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, that person had already arrived outside the great hall.

”That bastard actually dares to stir up trouble on my territory! Even if he’s a Dou Zun, I, Xiong Zhan, won’t be afraid!”

Sensing the intruder’s presence, Xiong Zhan clenched his massive, cauldron-sized fists. Then, with his mountain-like body trembling slightly, he strode straight out of the hall. However, Zi Yan’s delicate brows suddenly furrowed.

This aura... felt so familiar!

”Who dares cause trouble on my territory, Xiong Zhan’s domain?!”

The hot-tempered Xiong Zhan roared the moment he stepped outside. But as his gaze lifted toward the sky and landed on the figure hovering there, his voice shook with anger.

”Little Xiongzi! You bastard, stop right there for your great-aunt!”

Before his words even faded, a crisp and familiar voice rang out across the sky.

In the next instant, a streak of violet light flashed through the air. The next thing Lin Feng knew, a soft, fragrant body was suddenly pressed into his arms.

As he stood there dumbfounded, two round, astonishingly soft mounds—he judged them to be at least D-sized—bounced firmly against his chest.

Although he was stunned, his hands instinctively moved, catching and supporting the smooth, curvy waist and perky hips of the girl in his embrace.

”You’re... Zi Yan!”

Staring blankly at the violet-haired girl in his arms, who now looked around sixteen years old, Lin Feng froze for a brief second—then exclaimed in disbelief.
