**
Right away, Xiao Yixian softly asked using her soul power, "What's wrong? Did you discover more information about the one behind all this?"
Seeing the puzzled expression of the beauty in his arms, Lin Feng told her everything about Lue Feng Zun Zhe.
Of course, he tactfully left out the part about Lue Feng Zun Zhe having a harem of tens of thousands of women.
After hearing it all, Xiao Yixian's expression also turned grim.
The current situation wasn't exactly in their favor.
Suddenly, Lin Feng looked down again at the girl in his embrace, and a spark of excitement flashed across his eyes as he shouted in his mind, "Elder Yao! What if I have Xiao Yixian release her poison inside the formation? Could that stop him from harvesting the flesh and blood of other cultivators to enhance himself?"
Upon hearing the idea, Tian Huo Zun Zhe's eyes lit up.
After all, the poison from the Woeful Poison Body wasn't something to be taken lightly.
What's more, Lue Feng Zun Zhe was currently only in soul form.
If he were to be infected by the origin poison of the Woeful Poison Body, it would practically be a death sentence.
When a body is poisoned, as long as one's strength is high enough, there's still a way to force it out.
But if the soul gets poisoned and one doesn't have some special means to counter it, then… death is pretty much inevitable.
And with that, the formation would be as good as ruined.
Even if Lue Feng Zun Zhe managed to activate the Bloodthirsty Spirit Formation, instead of boosting his soul power, it would backfire and drain it even faster.
"Lin Feng, this is a brilliant plan," Tian Huo Zun Zhe praised.
"Once the spatial shield over the plaza fades, have Xiao Yixian find a way to sneak in some poison to contaminate the energy within the formation. That'll be our chance to sabotage the outer formation as well."
"This way, not only can we eliminate the competitors who want to fight us for the Heavenly Flame, but we might even be able to harm Lue Feng Zun Zhe's remnant soul."
Now that they had found a way to potentially counter Lue Feng Zun Zhe, even Tian Huo Zun Zhe's voice carried an obvious trace of excitement.
"Then it's settled," Lin Feng nodded firmly, then turned and carefully explained the plan to Xiao Yixian.
He instructed her to poison the participants before they entered the black plaza.
The more toxic, the better—as long as it's done without being discovered!
Then, just to be sure, Lin Feng reminded her once again, "Xiao Yixian, that guy used to be a powerful Dou Zun who specialized in soul power. You must be extremely cautious when you act."
"I understand," she nodded gently, her eyes calm and resolute.
After finalizing their plan to deal with Lue Feng Zun Zhe, Lin Feng finally looked around to assess their current surroundings.
Only then did he realize that while they were talking, nearly twenty more people had arrived from the distance.
And the spatial barrier that completely enveloped the black stone plaza was growing weaker and thinner by the minute.
Lin Feng instantly understood—this was definitely Lue Feng Zun Zhe's doing.
That old bastard was silently manipulating the shield, waiting for most of the people inside the ruins to gather in one place—so he could wipe them all out in one go.
No one knew how much longer passed.
Suddenly, the black-clad man seated cross-legged at the outer edge of the black stone plaza stood up.
He was at the peak of Dou Zong, and his sharp gaze swept toward the Bone Transforming Gate's sect master on the other side. A stiff smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"Sect Master Hu, let's join forces and break this spatial barrier. After that, whatever treasures we find, it'll come down to our own abilities."
"Heh, just as Brother Qin says," Sect Master Hu quickly replied, standing up.
Excitement flashed across his pale, feminine face.
After all, he had been stuck at the bottleneck of Dou Zong for over a century.
And inside this ruin were two treasures of immense value: the Heavenly Flame, and the storage ring left behind by a Dou Zun.
Either one of them would be enough to benefit him immensely.
At the very least, exchanging it for the resources needed to help him break through to Dou Zun would be absolutely no problem.
As for the Wind and Thunder Fury Flame, there was no need to say more—it was enough to drive the alchemists of the Pill Tower mad with desire.
Using it to trade for a pill that could help him step into the Dou Zun realm would be more than worth it!
And that storage ring? That needed no further explanation either.
Although they didn't yet know the name of the Dou Zun who had owned it, judging from the fact that the master of this ruin had been willing to leave behind such rare treasures in the outer forest alone…
And looking now at the black plaza ahead, where five high-tier pills were still floating in midair…all these precious items together were more than enough to prove that the lifetime collection of this Dou Zun must be of staggering value.
The sect master of the Bone Transforming Gate quickly swept his gaze through the gathered crowd.
Excitement was visible in his eyes—but there was also a flicker of unease.
His son still hadn't arrived.
Could something have happened to him on the way?
Without speaking, both the Bone Transforming Gate's sect master and the old man surnamed Qin stepped forward, positioning themselves in front of the spatial shield.
Gazing at the barrier that had blocked their way for so long, the two of them simultaneously began to condense their Dou Techniques.
In an instant, torrents of deep blue and earthy yellow Dou Qi surged around them like crashing waves.
With both peak Dou Zong experts unleashing their full power, a terrifying aura exploded into the air.
Since both of them had already touched the threshold of Dou Zun, the pressure of their Dou Techniques was enough to severely injure ordinary Dou Zong experts.
Then, almost in perfect sync, the two launched their attacks.
From their hands burst forth Dou Techniques crackling with terrifying energy, each laced with threads of black space-tearing cracks, slamming violently into the spatial shield.
"The power of these techniques is insane. Judging by their current strength, they've already begun to surpass the Dou Zong level…"
Watching those deadly attacks bearing down on the shield, Lin Feng couldn't help but silently marvel in his heart.
BOOM!
As the two Dou Techniques collided fiercely with the spatial barrier, a thunderous explosion rocked the entire ruin.
In the next moment, a terrifying shockwave of blue and black energy burst outward from the impact point and swept across the surroundings at blinding speed!
Nearby, several seven-star and even Eight-Star Dou Zong cultivators were stunned by the display. Their faces turned grim.
None of them dared to act carelessly now. Each hastily raised their own barriers to shield themselves from the rampaging energy waves.
The stronger cultivators managed to block most of the incoming shockwaves.
But the rest of that violent energy continued roaring across the open space, sweeping directly toward the mid- and low-level Dou Zong participants!
And yet, when those energy waves reached Xiao Yixian's area…she suddenly let out a soft, almost playful chuckle beneath her mask.
Right now, everyone's attention was completely focused on the spatial shield.
Even Lue Feng Zun Zhe's attention, hidden in the shadows, was likely concentrated on preparing to activate the formation.
Add to that the chaotic turbulence of this gale—this moment was the perfect opportunity to release her poison.
