Immediately, Lin Feng frowned and asked, "Don't tell me you didn't find the traces of the Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast?"
After all, if he couldn't find it here, then he could only take Xiao Yixian to Fallen God Stream and gamble on luck.
As for Xiao Yixian, her beautiful face was filled with nervous tension as she stared at the elder.
"Cough… my Sand Land Golden-Tailed Scorpion clansmen did, not long ago, discover the traces of a Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast in the southern part of the Western Wasteland Desert, near the southern region of Central Plains. However, that magic beast is terrifyingly strong. Ordinary experts simply wouldn't dare approach it, let alone fight it."
Facing Lin Feng's pressing question, the elder could only shake his head helplessly.
Hearing this, Lin Feng's brows furrowed even deeper as he asked, "Then what exactly is the strength of that beast?"
"After confirming from various sources, the final conclusion is that the Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast should be around the level of a Five-Star Dou Zun. Moreover, she has several dozen male consorts. Among them, the two strongest are both at the peak of One-Star Dou Zun."
The elder's voice sank with bitterness as he answered.
According to the earlier agreement, finding the traces of a Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast meant he would receive two Transformation Pills as payment.
But what they found was this kind of monster. Not to mention the forces around her—just her alone was at the level of a mid Rank 8 magic beast.
This information was, to be honest, a bit of a pitfall.
Because even within the Western Wasteland Desert, among all the powers present, those capable of slaying such a beast could probably be counted on two hands.
After all, this Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast was the descendant of the ancient beast overlord, the Ancient Void Dragon.
Just relying on that trace of ancient dragon bloodline, she already had almost no rivals at the same level.
"A Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast at Five-Star Dou Zun level… with two Dou Zun-level consorts?!"
Hearing this, the hearts of Lin Feng and his companions were filled with shock.
Even the bizarre detail of a magic beast actually keeping male consorts was pushed aside.
They had indeed found the beast, but this was far too tricky!
That level of beast, especially one that had survived since ancient times, was not something easy to deal with.
Besides, right now Tian Huo Zun Zhe was only at the peak of Three-Star Dou Zun.
Although this old man had once been at the peak of Five-Star Dou Zun, and his combat strength was stronger than most at the same level, wanting to leap across nearly two stars to slay a Five-Star Dou Zun Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast was extremely difficult.
Not to mention, she still had two Dou Zun-level helpers at her side. However, when Lin Feng thought of the three Heavenly Flames he possessed, along with Xiao Yixian's Ghostly Poison Flame.
Four Heavenly Flames in total, though most of them were ranked on the lower side.
Still, if they combined those four flames with the power of the Life Transforming Flame, then under Tian Huo Zun Zhe's Five Ring Flame Expelling Techniquee, if they could somehow distract or separate the other battle strength.
Perhaps, they might have a chance to kill the Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast.
"In this Western Wasteland Desert, you didn't find any other Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beasts?"
After pondering for a moment, Lin Feng still asked unwillingly.
"Master, there truly aren't any more. The Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast is an ancient exotic beast, and also a subsidiary clan of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan. Their race once had a glorious era as well.
"Ninety-nine percent of Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beasts live in their clan's own territory. Unless you camp right outside their clan's gate, there's no chance of encountering one. As for those that roam outside, their numbers are extremely few."
As the golden-robed elder spoke, a trace of envy slipped into his tone.
After all, if his own clan had the protection of such a beast overlord…that kind of clan could remain on its own territory, developing in peace.
They wouldn't need to be like his people, facing such fierce competition every single day.
One had to know—in the depths of this Western Wasteland Desert, filled with slaughter and devoid of rules—even Dou Zun experts would, on average, fall every few decades, often through unnatural causes.
And for a clan like theirs, with only a single Dou Zun, and that too just a low-level Dou Zun, they were the likeliest to end up as victims.
If someday one of the powerful factions living in the heart of the Western Desolate Region required a Rank 8 magic core…then the Sand Land Golden-Tailed Scorpions could very well be exterminated for that reason alone.
On top of that, the relationships between the various magic beast races in the Western Desolate Region were not exactly friendly.
If a war truly broke out, no one could be sure whether those other fellows would come to their aid.
Seeing that they had found only this one Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast, Lin Feng said helplessly, "Since this is the only lead you've got, then let's proceed as we agreed."
As he spoke, Lin Feng retrieved two small jade boxes from his storage ring and tossed them over.
The elder, seeing that Lin Feng didn't press the matter further, felt a flash of joy cross his face.
He caught the jade boxes, opened them to check, and then said happily, "Master, that Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast resides within the Ten Thousand Poison Mountain Range, a region spanning across the Central Plains' Western Region, the Western Wasteland Desert, and the Central Plains' Southern Domain. Specifically, in a valley of the sixth mountain range."
As he spoke, the elder seemed to recall something, and added in a tone of warning, "Master, the regions surrounding the Ten Thousand Poison Mountain Range, both the Western and Southern Regions of the Central Plains, are home to many poison-based sects.
Among them, the most dominant is the Myriad Poison Sect, located in the Western Region. Their strongest sect master is a peak Four-Star Dou Zun. You know how those poison cultivators rely on all kinds of lethal toxins for their training. So you'd best be careful."
"Many thanks for the reminder."
Hearing this, Lin Feng smiled as he replied.
But inwardly, his feelings were a bit strange.
The Myriad Poison Sect—wasn't that the very faction to which Old Chan Chu and Granny Yin he killed had belonged?
He hadn't expected that the nearly forgotten sect would be mentioned again here.
At the side, Tian Huo Zun Zhe had thoughts similar to Lin Feng's. After all, it had been him who egged Lin Feng on to kill that Toad Elder back then.
Thinking of this, Tian Huo Zun Zhe couldn't help but feel a touch of helplessness. Lin Feng and Granny Yin's grudge in Bone Transforming City had been witnessed by plenty of eyes.
Later, Granny Yin had led people to ambush Lin Feng. Perhaps she hadn't reported the full truth to her sect.
But with the comings and goings of their disciples, the Myriad Poison Sect would definitely be aware of the situation.
The only question was whether they would trace things back to Lin Feng. After all, they had slaughtered a peak seventh-tier alchemist belonging to that sect.
The fall of such an alchemist—even a peak Four-Star Dou Zun would be driven into a fury.
If the sect ever uncovered the truth, then they would be in very serious trouble. At Lin Feng's side, he too had clearly thought of this problem.
However, since the elder had already revealed information about the Myriad Poison Sect's strongest member, he chose not to pursue the matter further.
