Fighting: Practice makes it real, start with a poisonous body.

Xiao Yan's breathing became rapid, his gaze fixed on the ancient, fragmented map in Little Fairy Doctor's hand.

"Could I have this picture?"

Seeing his anxious expression, Little Fairy Doctor pretended to ponder for a moment, then parted her lips slightly, her tone calm but with a hint of a smile: "This thing is useless to me; it's tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away."

We've known each other for a while, from Qingshan Town until now, so we have quite a history. I'll give this to you.

As soon as she finished speaking, a hint of doubt and strangeness flickered in Little Fairy Doctor's eyes.

The teacher was truly prescient, having given her instructions well in advance. However, she still couldn't understand why the teacher, who always acted with method and never engaged in unprofitable deals that harmed himself for the benefit of others, was so knowledgeable.

How many unexpected benefits will the teacher gain from this?
She was genuinely curious.

"Little medical fairy?"

Seeing that Little Fairy Doctor had suddenly fallen into deep thought, Xiao Yan couldn't help but remind her. He was simply too concerned about this incomplete map.

"Even after becoming a saint, you are still as impatient as you were in Qingshan Town."

Little Fairy Doctor gently shook her head. With a gentle wave of her hand, her Dou Sheng-level Dou Qi softly enveloped the ancient fragment of the map, slowly lifting it up and sending it drifting towards Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan was immediately overjoyed, his eyes blazing with light, and Yao Lao beside him also smiled.

Xiao Yan reached out his hands as if he had found a treasure, and carefully took the incomplete map.

He then clasped his hands in a fist and bowed solemnly to Little Fairy Doctor, saying in a deep voice, "I will never forget this kindness, and I will repay it handsomely in the future!"

"Ah."

Little Fairy Doctor nodded slightly: "I have just broken through to the Dou Sheng realm and need to consolidate my cultivation and stabilize my realm as soon as possible, so I will not see you out."

"Okay, farewell!"

Xiao Yan and Yao Lao didn't linger any longer and immediately turned and walked out of the main hall. Their steps were light, and their joy was indescribable; they felt as if much of the gloom ahead had dissipated.

After the two figures completely disappeared from the entrance of the main hall, Queen Medusa, who had been silent all along, slowly spoke: "Why is that guy so fond of this kid named Xiao Yan?"
Although it is only a fragment of the map, it is related to the Pure Lotus Demon Flame. At this crucial moment when the Pure Lotus Demon Flame is about to be born, if it is put up for auction, it will probably fetch an astronomical price, enough to drive any force crazy.

He just gave it away so easily?

"Who knows."

Little Fairy Doctor shook her head: "Teacher's thoughts are always hard to fathom."

Perhaps he had a deeper meaning behind his actions. We should simply do as he instructs and not delve too deeply into it…

I'll go and consolidate my cultivation first. Please take care of things in the valley.

"Do not worry."

……

Meanwhile, Xiao Yan and Yao Lao sped all the way back to the Flower Sect's residence.

As soon as they stepped into the familiar courtyard, they saw Xiao Xuan, Xiao Xun'er, and Venerable Tianhuo already waiting there, their expressions filled with anticipation.

"How is it?"

Xiao Xuan spoke first, and Xiao Xun'er and Venerable Tianhuo also looked over.

"It's done!"

Xiao Yan took a deep breath, flipped his hand, and took out three ancient fragments of a map from his storage ring. His fingertips surged with Dou Qi, lifting the three fragments and suspending them in the air.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

The three fragments of the map slowly rotated in the air, approaching each other. The broken parts were perfectly pieced together, except for a missing corner in the lower left corner. The rest of the map was perfectly joined together, forming a nearly complete ancient map.

In the center of the ancient painting, a lifelike pattern of a pure lotus and demonic fire is almost complete. The flame patterns are intricate and gorgeous, faintly exuding a domineering and eerie aura, as if it is about to break free from the painting.

"Great!"

Xiao Xun'er's face lit up with a long-lost radiant smile, and a blush returned to her pale cheeks.

Xiao Xuan stared intently at the ancient map in the air and said in a deep voice, "Only one last piece of the puzzle is missing."

Time is of the essence; the day the Pure Lotus Demon Flame is about to be unleashed is fast approaching, and we can no longer search aimlessly.

"In my opinion, we should ask the patriarch of the Pill Tower to issue a bounty in the name of the Pill Tower, offering a high price for the last fragment of the map!" "Yes!"

Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, a hint of excitement flashing in them: "The Pill Tower enjoys unparalleled prestige in the Central State and even the entire continent, with extremely strong appeal."

If the reward is generous enough, it will attract countless people, greatly increasing the chances of finding the last fragment of the map!

Why didn't he think of this method before?
With the influence of the Dan Tower and the generous reward, even if the last fragment of the map is hidden at the ends of the earth, it is highly likely that it can be found.

"It's probably not that simple..."

The old doctor stroked his long beard, his smile gradually fading, and a deep worry appeared in his eyes.

"Indeed, no one can match the appeal of the Danta."

But no one knows whether the last fragment of the map is in Zhongzhou, or on some other continent, or perhaps it has already been lost in some unknown secret realm...

The worst-case scenario is that the owner of the last fragment of the map is either an ancient imperial clan or a beast race under the command of the Dragon-Phoenix Son!

If the incomplete map falls into their hands, then the so-called subjugation of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame will be nothing but empty talk!

The old man's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Xiao Yan's heart, instantly extinguishing the excitement on his face and plunging him into silence.

Yes, the teacher is right.

If the last fragment of the map falls into the hands of these forces, they will not only fail to obtain it, but may also bring disaster upon themselves.

"Things have come to this point, we have no choice but to give it a try!"

Xiao Yan clenched his fist tightly!

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yan no longer hesitated. Flames surged around him, transforming into a blazing stream of fire that soared into the sky and flew towards the Pill Tower.

Xiao Xuan, Yao Lao, Xiao Xun'er, and Venerable Tianhuo watched his departing figure, their faces showing solemn expressions.

……

Inside the council hall of the Pill Tower, Xiao Yan explained the situation in detail to the Pill Tower's patriarch.
After a moment's thought, the old patriarch of the Dan Tower said, "Alright! I agree!"
The Pill Tower will immediately issue a bounty, offering three Rank 9 precious pills as a reward, seeking the final fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame map from across the entire continent.

"Three Grade Nine Precious Pills!"

Xiao Yan was startled and looked at the seemingly short figure.

A ninth-grade precious pill is already a top-tier treasure in the world of alchemy, enough to drive any Dou Zun, or even Dou Sheng, mad with desire. This reward is undoubtedly extremely tempting!
"Thank you for your support, Ancestor!"

Xiao Yan clasped his hands in a fist salute and said, "Having obtained the Demon Flame, Xiao Yan will do his utmost to help the human race and resist the Dragon-Phoenix Son!"

"It's good that you have this intention."

Ancestor Danta smiled.

Over the next seven days, Danta mobilized all its resources to spread the bounty information throughout the entire continent through various channels.

Whether it was the major powers in the Central Plains, the reclusive experts in remote continents, or even some tribes in the wild lands, everyone knew about this bounty that shocked the world.

In an instant, the entire continent was in an uproar.

Countless people searched far and wide for news of the last fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame map, and the entire continent was stirred up by this bounty.

……

On the other side, in a remote mountain wilderness, there is a simple wooden house hidden away.

Inside the wooden cabin, the light was dim, and the air was filled with a faint smell of medicine and blood.

Gu Yuan sat at a dilapidated wooden table, clutching a newly received parchment scroll with a bounty notice tightly in his hand.

"Homage to all of you in the Central Plains, I am Xiao Yan."

Now that the Pure Lotus Demon Flame is about to appear in the world, I have found three fragments of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame map. I only need the last fragment to complete the ancient map of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame and subdue it!
I implore the holder of the fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame map to deliver the final fragment to me!

As he finished reading, Gu Yuan slammed the parchment onto the table with a loud "bang," his eyes blazing with madness.

"So, you've already collected all three fragments of the map!"

Great! Absolutely great! Hahahaha... You truly are my good nephew!
"This is truly heaven's help!" (End of Chapter)
