It was also because of the arrival of this grand event that Xun'er was able to temporarily leave the protection of the ancient world, set foot in the outside world, come to the prosperous Shengdan City, and accompany Xiao Ling.

Of course, this is also inseparable from Xun'er's own efforts. Since she has never wasted her talent for cultivation since childhood, her strength has long surpassed her peers in the ancient clan, and her combat power is even not inferior to that of the elders of the ancient clan.

This situation has made her say in the ancient clan increasingly important, and she can do things more smoothly and freely.

It's not that the Ancient Clan values ​​a Danhui champion that much. In the eyes of an ancient race like the Ancient Clan, a Danhui champion is really not a great honor.

The ancient clan has a long heritage and profound cultural heritage. They stand on the top of the Douqi Continent, overlooking everything in the world.

The title of Alchemy Contest Champion may be the highest honor for ordinary forces and alchemists, but for the ancient clan, it is just a drop in the ocean.

Therefore, winning the championship was not the most important goal for Xiao Ling in this alchemy competition. What was more important was to fully demonstrate his strength and style on the stage of this alchemy competition.

Of course, Xiao Ling was not aware of these views and judgments within the ancient clan.

Even though Xiao Ling would sometimes casually ask about this, Xun'er would deliberately conceal these things and never mention them in front of Xiao Ling.

She knew very well that if the discussions within the ancient clan were to reach Xiao Ling's ears, it would only bring him unnecessary worry and pressure.

Xun'er's wish is very simple. She only hopes that Xiao Ling can keep a free heart, devote himself wholeheartedly to what he wants to do, pursue his dreams without being disturbed by the outside world.

However, even if Xun'er kept silent, Xiao Ling could feel her deep affection for him and could guess her devotion to him.

The tenderness and care that has surrounded me since childhood have never faded even after years of baptism.

Even though they are at the ends of the earth, thousands of miles apart, the emotions deposited in their hearts are like aged wine, becoming more mellow and rich as time goes by.

Gazing at Xun'er leaning on his shoulder, Xiao Ling couldn't help but stretch out his arms and gently embrace her in his arms, with endless tenderness and cherishment surging in his heart.

"With such a beautiful woman by my side, what else can I ask for? This life is enough."

In response to Xiao Ling's sudden tight hug, Xun'er gently adjusted her body and slowly sat astride him.

Her eyes met Xiao Ling's loving eyes, and the same infinite tenderness surged in the depths of her eyes.

At this moment, their eyes met, as if there was a silent language flowing in the air, their hearts were closely connected at this moment, and their emotions slowly warmed up in the quiet space.

At this moment, no more words were needed. Xun'er slowly lowered her head, her hair falling like a waterfall, gently brushing Xiao Ling's cheek, silky and soft.

As her face got closer, their breathing seemed to intertwine.

At this moment, the two soft lips touched gently and pressed tightly together, as if all the emotions were released in this kiss.

With the deep affection at that moment, the atmosphere in the room seemed to become more subtle. Every breath of Xun'er and Xiao Ling became deeper, and the air around them seemed to become warmer.

Xun'er's cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were filled with shyness and passionate emotions.

Xiao Ling's eyes were full of love and desire. He gently raised his hand and unbuttoned the first button on Xun'er's clothes, revealing her delicate skin.

As he moved, Xun'er's clothes fell off one by one, like blooming petals, gradually revealing her flawless body.

The sound of clothes falling was particularly clear in the quiet room.

Every time they took off a piece of clothing, it seemed to release a little restraint in their hearts, bringing them closer to each other.

Their breathing became more rapid, and their heartbeats echoed like drums in the silent room.

Every movement was filled with tenderness and desire, as if they wanted to integrate each other into their lives.

In this warm and private space, they fully release their love for each other, allowing this relationship to burn even more brightly in the flames of passion.

……

"Xun'er, you little girl, you are really a little devil who wants to kill me."

After a long time, the room returned to silence again. Xiao Ling gently caressed the beautiful body lying on his chest, with a hint of pampering and helplessness in his tone.

"If you hadn't yet broken through to the Dou Sheng realm and needed my protection, I would have punished you severely."

His eyes were deep and full of doting as he gazed at Xun'er, who was as docile as a kitten in his arms. His heart was filled with endless tenderness and attachment.

Who could have expected that Xun'er, who always remained noble and cold in the eyes of outsiders, would show a different style in front of Xiao Ling, pure and charming, full of a different kind of temptation.

If Xiao Ling had not been so resolute and always kept in mind the boundary in his heart, constantly reminding himself not to cross the last bottom line, he would probably have really lost to Xun'er's charm, accidentally fallen into the whirlpool of desire, and done stupid things that he would regret.

Xun'er raised her head slightly, a playful light flashing in her eyes and a sweet smile on her lips.

She stretched out her fingers, gently drew circles on Xiao Ling's chest, and whispered: "Brother Xiao Ling, wait until Xun'er breaks through to become a Dou Sheng, and see if you dare to say that. By then, it will be Xun'er who bullies you, and I won't give you the chance to bully Xun'er..."

Before, Xun'er had put a lot of thought into helping Xiao Ling release his emotions.

However, this brother Xiao Ling was really too much. Not only did he not sympathize with her efforts and dedication, but he also blamed her.

Could it be that her charm had become her fault? After she broke through to the Dou Sheng realm, she would definitely receive the punishment she deserved.

Xiao Ling smiled softly. He held Xun'er tightly in his arms, his eyes gleaming with anticipation and doting. "Okay, then I'll patiently wait for my little Xun'er to break through to the Dou Sheng realm. Then we'll see who's bullying whom."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Ling once again stretched out his sinful hands and gently slid them over Xun'er's flawless, jade-like body, carefully feeling the gracefulness and warmth of her every curve.

At Xiao Ling's sudden touch, Xun'er's cheeks suddenly flushed lightly, like the reflection of the sunset.

Her boneless jade hand gently rested on Xiao Ling's chest. Her voice was as low as a mosquito's buzz, with a bit of shyness and anger, and she whispered softly: "Brother Xiao Ling, you are such a bad guy..."

……

Inside the elegantly decorated room, soft lights sprinkle like flowing water, illuminating every inch of space.

There are exquisite landscape paintings hanging on the walls and a few pots of vibrant green plants placed in the corners, emitting a faint fragrance.

A thick carpet is laid on the wooden floor with intricate and simple patterns, adding a touch of warmth and elegance.

In the middle of the room, an exquisite chandelier hangs, illuminating the center futon.

Xiao Ling sat cross-legged in this soft halo of light. His figure appeared peaceful and profound under the light.

As Xiao Ling's thoughts fluctuated subtly, a man's body dressed in a dark black robe suddenly descended into this quiet secret room.

On the black robe, there was a shocking hole on the left chest. It was the hole where Venerable Mu Gu lost his life not long ago under the fatal blow of the Heavenly Demon Puppet controlled by Xiao Ling.

As soon as Venerable Mu Gu's body was released from the system space by Xiao Ling, the powerful soul in his body instantly turned into a black stream of light and fled rapidly into the depths of the earth.

Obviously, he was planning to abandon his physical body and escape only as a soul.

If he could successfully escape back to the Soul Palace, relying on his respected status in the Soul Palace and his distinguished position as an eighth-grade alchemist master, it would not be difficult for him to make the Soul Palace pay a certain price and rebuild a superior body for him.

However, Venerable Mu Gu's eager desire to escape was ultimately unfulfilled.

Xiao Ling looked at the soul of Venerable Mu Gu fleeing in panic, and just curled his lips in disdain. Then he calmly took out the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

He just made a slight move and the faint light on the Ten Thousand Souls Banner began to flicker. The light spread down like moonlight and shone straight in the direction of his escape.

In an instant, the entire dormitory seemed to be shrouded in a strange atmosphere. At the same time, a sound of ghosts howling and wolves howling came from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. The sound was sharp and piercing, as if thousands of wronged souls were crying and roaring.

Faintly, even the temperature in the dormitory suddenly dropped a few degrees, and a trace of chill rose from the ground. Ordinary people would be shocked when seeing this scene.

The soul of Venerable Mu Gu immediately felt a strong suction force under the light of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner that had the ability to capture souls.

When he realized this, Venerable Mu Gu immediately began to resist hard, trying to escape from this restraint.

However, despite his best efforts to escape, he was unsuccessful.

In the blink of an eye, the light turned into countless illusory hands emitting bright white light, and quickly wrapped around the soul of Venerable Mu Gu, pulling him back towards the direction of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

At this time, Venerable Mu Gu no longer had the desire to escape. Faced with this scene, his heart was filled with only fear.

He watched himself being pulled by the illusory hand, step by step closer to the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls, as if he saw his fate of being swallowed up, and his heart was filled with despair and helplessness.

The illusory hand formed by the eerie energy wrapped around the soul of Master Mu Gu like a python, tightly wrapping his entire body, leaving only his left eye so that he could peek at every move of the outside world.

As the distance gradually shortened, when the only left eye of Master Mu Gu saw Xiao Ling holding the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and smiling indifferently, his heart completely collapsed, and the uncontrollable fear made him scream heartbreakingly.

"Xiao Ling, your methods are more vicious than those of the Soul Palace. Everyone has misjudged you! How dare you play with the souls of the deceased so recklessly? You are the real devil, and you will be punished..."

Before Venerable Mu Gu's terrified scream had even ended, Xiao Ling had already impatiently waved the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in his hand. The soul was swallowed by a black hole, disappearing in an instant and being sucked into the bottomless space of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

"My methods may indeed be a bit cruel, but they pale in comparison to the cruel acts of your Soul Palace. Your wanton slaughter of living beings is truly inhumane."

Xiao Ling then curled his lips, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, and couldn't help but complain.

"Besides, I have never claimed to be a good person. As for how others judge me, that is their business and has nothing to do with me."

Xiao Ling waved his hand casually, and the Ten Thousand Souls Banner was safely placed in his arms.

He thought to himself, after all, Venerable Mu Gu was an eighth-rank alchemist during his lifetime, so why not make him into a puppet specializing in alchemy and preserve his alchemy skills.

Anyway, when Xiao Ling had free time before, he learned many secret techniques of refining puppets from Xiao Diao.

For him, it was not a difficult task to refine Venerable Mu Gu into a puppet capable of refining pills and retain his skills in alchemy.

In the future in Xingyun Pavilion, he can be used as an efficient alchemy tool. This way, it can be regarded as a punishment for his evil deeds in his life, and it can also vent the anger of Yao Chen.

Although Han Feng stabbed Yao Chen in the back, it was also due to his character. Han Feng himself is a mean person and an ungrateful person who can never be tamed.

However, Venerable Mu Gu’s instigation was also a factor in this, which led to the tragedy.

Perhaps without the intervention of Venerable Mu Gu, Han Feng's betrayal might not have come so quickly, but his nature ultimately determined that he would find it difficult to resist the temptation from the outside world.

Yao Chen's teaching and dedication to Han Feng became worthless under the instigation of Venerable Mu Gu, which eventually led to the tragedy of master and disciple turning against each other.

After Yao Chen was resurrected, due to various reasons, he did not take action against Venerable Mu Gu. But now, Xiao Ling himself encountered this person. Perhaps this is the embodiment of karma and retribution?

After properly handling the matters related to the soul of Venerable Mu Gu, Xiao Ling no longer paid any attention to it. He refocused his eyes and fell coldly on the still body of Venerable Mu Gu.

Xiao Ling slowly stretched out his palm, and in an instant, a suction force suddenly surged out from the palm of his hand, as if forming an invisible vortex with a powerful pulling force.

Xiao Ling's eyes focused, and then he pulled hard. The high-level storage ring on Venerable Mu Gu's finger seemed to have received an irresistible call. It instantly broke away from his fingertips, turned into a stream of light, and was directly caught in Xiao Ling's palm.

Xiao Ling gently held the storage ring and could feel it faintly emitting unique soul fluctuations, which was enough to show the high quality of this storage ring. It seemed that there must be a lot of precious things hidden in it.

However, it is reasonable to think that as an experienced 8th-grade alchemist, Venerable Mu Gu must have accumulated a lot of wealth over the years. He has naturally collected a lot of rare medicinal materials, as well as various high-level skills and fighting skills secrets.

Xiao Ling thought so in his heart, and then his soul power surged into the ring like a tide.

Relying on Xiao Ling's powerful soul power at this moment, he easily broke through the restrictions on the ring and then explored the rich treasures contained in it.

"Tsk tsk, there is even a ninth-grade pill recipe. The collection of Venerable Mu Gu is truly extraordinary." Xiao Ling raised his eyebrows, a hint of unexpected surprise flashed in his eyes, and he whispered to himself.

Just as he expected, there were a dazzling array of treasures in the ring. Among them, a pill recipe with a faint golden glow caught his attention. It turned out to be a recipe for a ninth-grade elixir.

If such a precious treasure were to be circulated to the outside world, it would surely trigger a frenzied scramble among countless alchemists, making it truly a peerless treasure. For Venerable Mu Gu, a Dou Zun, to possess such a treasure was truly a rare opportunity.

Chapter 458: Heavenly Fire Condensation Pill, Void Swallows Flame Fire

Upon closer inspection, it was found that the recipe recorded a ninth-grade elixir called "Tianhuo Ningyuan Pill".

Seeing this pill recipe with a rather innovative name, Xiao Ling immediately became interested.
