The person facing Zi Yan was a girl of similar age, dressed in green. She had a pair of big watery eyes on her slightly chubby face, which made her look particularly cute. However, her expression was a little serious at the moment. She stared at Zi Yan as if facing a great enemy, as if she could feel the blood pressure coming from Zi Yan.

The woman's identity was obvious. The only one who was qualified to set foot here was Mu Qingluan mentioned by Master Feng yesterday.

Mu Qingluan is the legitimate daughter of the Tianluan clan. Her true form is a blue phoenix. She is not very old and has swallowed the transformation pill since she was young. Therefore, she is qualified to study in a human sect. Her ancestors knew Master Feng, and she herself is extremely talented. Now she has become Master Feng's only direct disciple.

"What are you looking at?" Yao Yan walked over, reached out and rubbed Zi Yan's little head, and said curiously.

"She stared at me as soon as she arrived."

Zi Yan pointed at Mu Qingluan and started talking.

Mu Qingluan's pretty face turned serious, and she said in a mature manner: "I'm not staring at her, I just feel that she is very dangerous... It was obviously you who showed hostility first, don't think that you can be violent just because of your strong bloodline, my teacher is the Feng Zun!"

As she spoke, she straightened her flat chest.

"My eldest brother is a seventh-rank alchemist!" Zi Yan retorted unwillingly.

"A Dou Zun is more powerful than a seventh-grade alchemist!"

Mu Qingluan was stunned for a moment, then spoke angrily.

"Okay, stop arguing, but did your teacher ask you to come here?" Yao Yan looked at the scene with a smile on his face. He immediately interrupted the conversation between the two and looked at Mu Qingluan and asked.

"Well, the teacher asked me to come and see if you came out."

Mu Qingluan spoke the truth. Perhaps because she had just transformed, her behavior was still quite different from that of a real human. She was quite similar to Zi Yan whom she had met before, both of them looked like they had never dealt with humans before.

"Then let's go." Yao Yan rubbed Zi Yan's head, asking her to be less harsh, and then took the two women and flew towards Xingyun Pavilion.

……

"How does the star power of the black tower feel?"

Yao Yan, Mu Qingluan and Zi Yan had just stepped into the main hall when Yao Lao's smiling voice came over. At the same time, his soul emerged, stroking his beard and looking at Yao Yan's body. The power of starlight is not only used for cultivation, it also contains some body tempering power, which still has a good effect even for high-level practitioners.

"Very good, I feel it goes well with the Three Thousand Flames~" Yao Yan nodded and chuckled.

“Don’t always think about the Three Thousand Flames of Fire. You should not have swallowed the Bone Spirit Cold Fire that this old man gave you yet. Don’t bite off more than you can chew. Take it one step at a time.” Yao Lao stroked his beard and said softly.

"Greetings, Master Yao." Mu Qingluan stood to one side and saluted Master Yao in a formal manner.

Yao Lao smiled at him, then continued to look at Yao Yan and said, "Get ready, and head to Tianshan Blood Pond later. That place is in the Tianmu Mountains in the northern region of Zhongzhou. It will take some time to get there. Zi Yan will stay in Xingyun Pavilion for the time being, and I will take good care of her."

"Yeah." Yao Yan didn't hesitate and responded directly.

"Brother~"

Zi Yan pulled Yao Yan's clothes and said reluctantly.

"Practice well and try to grow up quickly." Yao Yan touched Zi Yan's head, looked at her big purple eyes, and said softly.

"I'll try my best." Zi Yan clenched her fists and muttered softly.

"Then let's go."

Venerable Feng on the side looked at Yao Yan and spoke slowly.

Yao Yan nodded, and then he saw Venerable Feng raise his hand to distort the space. With a move of his body, he was already beside Yao Yan. The other party grabbed his shoulder with one hand, and the two disappeared from the spot. In a trance, they appeared high in the sky. At the same time, a giant green bird appeared under his feet, spread its wings and flew away.

"Good boy, your body is so strong." Venerable Feng pinched Yao Yan's shoulder in surprise and exclaimed.

This was the first time he had seen such strong tendons and bones. He estimated that even some magical beasts with powerful bloodlines could not reach this level of strength, especially the bones. He could not even pinch them. Although he did not use his full strength, he could still feel their solidity.

How did this kid practice?
The strength of a Half-Step Dou Zong is understandable, but the cultivation of the physical body is not as easy as Dou Qi. And there is also Yao Yan's alchemy skills... This kid's talent is truly all-round!

"It's okay. Please use less strength. I'm afraid your arm will be crushed." Yao Yan said pretending to be in pain.

Venerable Feng let go with a smile, then sat down cross-legged and continued to say to Yao Yan: "Sit down and practice. We are going to the northern region of Zhongzhou. The journey is not short. It will probably take three days to get there."

"Yes." Yao Yan nodded, then sat cross-legged beside Master Feng. After a moment, he began to practice.

As Yao Yan began to practice, the energy of the surrounding heaven and earth quickly surged in, turning into tangible energy torrents that poured into Yao Yan's body. However, his body was like a black hole, accepting all the energy and swallowing it all up, as if there was no need for tempering at all.

This kind of practice also caused strange phenomena to occur all around, with a misty air filling the air. This was caused by the excessive abundance of energy in heaven and earth.

This scene also made Feng Zun stunned. After a moment, he raised his hand to distort the space for Yao Yan, isolating the abnormal cultivation phenomenon. At the same time, he couldn't help but whispered: "This cultivation talent is even more terrifying than Yao Chen when he was young... That clan really doesn't understand, they are willing to throw away such a talented teenager."

After a moment, he shook his head and fell into a doze.

The energy blue phoenix beneath him continued to fly towards its destination.

……

……

The Tianmu Mountains are extremely famous even in the entire northern region of Zhongzhou. The main reason for this is naturally the Tianshan Blood Pool that appears every three years.

It has the effect of cleansing a person's essence and marrow, transforming him/her completely, and can even help people break through bottlenecks directly. It is especially effective for young people. Therefore, every time the Tianshan Blood Pool appears, it will attract countless young people from Zhongzhou.

Even some big forces will pay great attention to it.

After all, it can help those at the peak of Douhuang to break through to Douzong level, and even some big forces cannot remain indifferent to it.

There is a huge watershed between the Douhuang and Douzong levels. In Zhongzhou, Douhuang masters can indeed be called masters, but only by becoming Douzong masters can they enjoy the treatment of true masters. For a force, if Douhuang is the core elite force, then Douzong is the real top force. Only when a force or even a family has Douzong masters, they are qualified to become a first-class force, and even their own influence will become stronger.

It is no exaggeration to say that the influence of a Dou Zong far exceeds that of ten Dou Huangs.
This can be seen.

The gap between Dou Huang and Dou Zong is so huge.

Of course, if a force or even a family has a Dou Zun, then even if this Dou Zun does not care about anything, he can still become a giant and no one can underestimate him. For example, the Sifang Pavilion is such an existence.

The rank of Dou Zun is considered as a truly top-notch powerhouse even if it is placed above Zhongzhou!
The object of admiration and compliments from countless people.

As for the Douluo Saint... this level is already beyond the reach of the outside world. The struggles among ordinary forces are just like child's play to them. They can solve all problems with a wave of their hands. Therefore, ordinary people simply cannot reach this level. Even a Douluo Reverend can rarely establish a relationship with a Douluo Saint.

In the entire Zhongzhou, only the Soul Palace and the Dan Tower have Fighting Saints in charge, which is evident.

……

A few days later.

A huge blue phoenix broke through the air, and as the surrounding space gradually returned to normal, a huge mountain range covered by thick clouds and mist appeared in Yao Yan's sight. At the same time, a vast energy wave also entered his soul perception.

This vast energy enveloped the entire mountain range, and the clouds that seemed to be solid seemed to be transformed from this energy.

"Brush~"

Qingluan also stopped and floated in the air.

“That place is somewhat special. Even if a Dou Zun steps into it, he will be suppressed to a certain extent. The stronger you are, the greater the suppression. The more you resist, the stronger the energy fluctuations will be. Once, a Dou Zun wanted to forcibly step into it to find out what was going on, but he directly triggered an energy tide and almost died.” Feng Zun looked at the mountains in the distance and said in a deep voice.

I understand, the energy is suppressed, high-level strong people are not allowed to enter, it is a welfare place specially prepared for the protagonists.

Yao Yan looked at the mountains in the distance calmly and asked, "How do I get in?"

“When the time comes, the clouds here will split open, allowing the younger generation to go there. But the time has not come yet, so we can only find another way.” Venerable Feng said softly, then raised his hand and shot out a stream of green energy, which directly broke through the clouds and penetrated into the mountains.

Not long after, a figure walked out from the clouds.

The man had a hunched body and a rather wretched face. He rubbed his hands with a smile and said respectfully to Venerable Feng: "My humble name is Jingu, nice to meet Venerable Feng. I wonder how Venerable Feng has the time to come here today?"

Now there is still nearly a year before the Tianshan Blood Pool opens. Logically speaking, these big forces should have no interest in this place.

As he spoke, his gaze turned to Yao Yan, with a gleam in his eyes.

Yao Yan was also looking at the other party. He was standing on the void and had no wings of fighting spirit on his back. The other party was obviously a Dou Zong-level warrior, but his appearance was a little creepy.

"This person is the descendant of the former Medicine Venerable. He came here today to break through to the Dou Zong level. After this is accomplished, Medicine Venerable will owe your clan a favor." Venerable Feng said lightly, and then he flicked his fingers and threw a jade token with the mark of Medicine Venerable's soul over.

Medicine Master?!

Jin Gu reached out his hand to take the jade token, feeling the soul aura in it, his body couldn't help but shiver, he swallowed, and thought of that possibility: "Excuse me, Master Feng, have you found Master Yao?!"

"It's okay to tell you. Medicine Venerable is now in Xingyun Pavilion." Feng Venerable had no intention of hiding anything and said directly that he was making this trip to tell the other party the news and spread the news with the help of the Gold-Eating Rat Clan's intelligence network.

"Congratulations, Master Feng." Jin Gu bowed and smiled, his expression becoming more enthusiastic.

"Let him go in. I'll wait for you outside." Venerable Feng ignored Jin Gu and turned to look at Yao Yan beside him. His expression became a little kinder and he spoke softly.

"It's troublesome."

Yao Yan bowed, then spread his wings of fighting spirit, and with a flash of his body, he flew towards Jingu.

"Please come in, young master." Jin Gu enthusiastically led the way for Yao Yan. Before leaving, he did not forget to bow to Master Feng. His flattering attitude made it impossible to associate him with a Dou Zong.

As the two entered the thick fog, Master Feng waved his hand to disperse the huge blue phoenix under his feet, then sat cross-legged in the void, his figure slowly dissipating as if he had merged into this space.

……

In the thick fog, it was almost pitch dark, and even the soul power was blocked.

"Young master, follow me closely. This place is quite unique. The thick fog can create illusions. If you are unlucky, even a Dou Zong-level warrior can easily get lost in it." Jin Gu introduced it to Yao Yan very considerately, and at the same time took Yao Yan to the Tianshan Blood Pool.

Yao Yan followed behind the other person, and soon his eyes were covered by a sky-blue flame, and suddenly everything around him became clear.

"?!" Jin Gu was stunned when he sensed the aura of the strange fire, but he was relieved after a moment. No wonder Venerable Feng dared to bring the other party here in advance. Without the protection of the strange fire, he could not enter the Tianshan Blood Pool, let alone break through to the Dou Zong level.

"Excuse me, sir, are you possessing a strange fire?" Jin Gu asked softly.

"Yeah." Yao Yan nodded.

"In that case, things are simple. You can go directly to the bottom of the Tianshan Blood Pool later. That place was developed by our Gold-Eating Rat clan and was not open to outsiders in the past." Jin Gu slowly introduced the preciousness of this place.

"The Tianshan Blood Pool is a natural crater. Because of this special place, a huge energy tide will be set off every three years, gathering into a blood pool made entirely of energy. This is also the origin of the Tianshan Blood Pool."

There was a pause.

Jingu continued, "But this is not the most amazing part of the Tianshan Blood Pool... Every time there is an energy tide, although most of the energy will condense into the red liquid in the Tianshan Blood Pool, a small part will settle down and finally invade the deepest part of the Tianshan Blood Pool. Although this part of energy is rare, it may be due to the accumulation of years, so it is particularly pure... Unfortunately, although there are huge treasures there, it is also the place with the most concentrated fire poison. However, you have the strange fire in your body, so it should be fine. Perhaps this is also the reason why Master Yao asked you to come here."

"Has Master Yao been here before?" Yao Yan asked curiously.

"I've studied it." Jin Gu said with a strange expression, obviously thinking of some things that happened in the past.

Yao Yan was not surprised to hear this. With Yao Lao's personality when he was young, how could he not come to study such a magical place? You know, every pharmacist has an restless heart and is full of curiosity about everything, wanting to try whether they can be used as medicine!
Some who have gone astray will even use human bodies to make medicine! (End of this chapter)
