**

At this moment, Tian Huo Zun Zhe had already fully taken control of the body.

With his assistance, Lin Feng and Xiao Yixian stepped into the temporary space wormhole he constructed.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived above the Sand Land Golden-Tailed Scorpion Clan's habitat.

As the three of them descended, two golden figures immediately soared into the sky to meet them.

The moment they appeared, Lin Feng's powerful soul sense instantly detected their presence.

His gaze shifted toward the two figures.

Among them, one was none other than the clan leader of the Sand Region Golden-Tailed Scorpions, someone Lin Feng had met a few times before.

As for the other unfamiliar figure, Lin Feng studied him carefully.

This man was shorter in stature and somewhat plump. Judging from his appearance, he looked to be around fifty to sixty years old.

He wore a gold robe, and on it was embroidered a massive scorpion that nearly covered the entire garment.

From a distance, it looked as though the scorpion were alive, clinging to his robes.

In fact, Lin Feng could faintly sense a subtle pressure emanating from the embroidered scorpion itself.

As Lin Feng examined the man, the old elder was likewise scrutinizing Lin Feng and his companions.

And the three before him… left him extremely shocked.

Though two of them clearly wore disguises and weren't showing their real appearances, judging from the aura surrounding their bodies, he could tell they were definitely no older than thirty-five.

Yet, their strengths… were anything but ordinary.

The woman's Dou Qi cultivation, from his experienced gaze, seemed to faintly carry traces of transitioning toward the Dou Zun realm.

However, stepping into the Dou Zun stage was never that easy.

As for the man, the faint waves of soul pressure that radiated from him from time to time made this magical beast, who was not adept with soul power, feel distinctly uncomfortable.

The powerful soul power lingering on Lin Feng's body alone was enough to convince him of Lin Feng's identity as a peak seventh-tier alchemist.

The old elder's previously calm expression instantly changed.

A peak seventh-tier alchemist under thirty-five years old… give him several dozen or even a hundred years more, and this young man might very well step into the realm of an eighth-tier grandmaster.

Just thinking about it sent chills down his spine!

Yet, the seemingly ordinary old man standing quietly behind Lin Feng was the one who made him feel the most cautious.

Even as a Two-Star Dou Zun, he could faintly sense an oppressive pressure from that old man's presence.

This pressure wasn't merely from the realm of soul strength…more importantly, it came from Dou Qi itself!

"This person's strength… I'd say at the very least, he's a Three-Star Dou Zun."

The old elder silently thought to himself as his gaze fell upon Tian Huo Zun Zhe.

"Cough, cough~"

At this moment, the Golden-Tailed Scorpion Clan Leader suddenly cleared his throat. He stepped forward, introducing the stranger to Lin Feng and the others: "This here is our clan's Grand Elder, a Two-Star Dou Zun powerhouse."

"Lin Feng."

Lin Feng slightly cupped his fists and calmly spoke his name.

Now that he had Tian Huo Zun Zhe by his side, he no longer needed to be as cautious as before, so he used his real name directly.

"Xiao Yixian."

Xiao Yixian introduced herself in the same manner.

"Old man Yao Tianhuo. But you can call me Tian Huo Zun Zhe."

Tian Huo Zun Zhe let out a casual smile and calmly introduced himself.

The elder of the Sand Land Golden-Tailed Scorpion Clan cupped his fists slightly, then spoke: "Regarding the matter of dealing with the Golden Body Sect, the clan leader has already informed me. I have agreed to this."

Under normal circumstances, even if the other party offered a peak seventh-tier pill as payment even if that pill could potentially allow their clan to produce another future Dou Zun powerhouse — he would never have agreed.

After all, engaging in a life-and-death battle against another Dou Zun carried tremendous risks.

If he were to fall in such a battle, or even suffer grave injuries, their Sand Land Golden-Tailed Scorpion Clan could very well face complete annihilation.

Therefore, even though they bore deep blood grudges against the Golden Body Sect, they had never dared to act recklessly.

However, after witnessing Tian Huo Zun Zhe's overwhelming strength firsthand, all those worries instantly vanished.

This was an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Naturally, he had to seize it — to finally wipe out the Golden Body Sect, which had long been a thorn in their side.

Although the sect master of the Golden Body Sect was a body-refinement cultivator with tremendous strength, and could even hold his ground against a Two-Star Dou Zun, this time, they had both himself and a powerhouse who was at least a Three-Star Dou Zun.

If the two of them working together still couldn't kill the sect master, then it would be better to just end their own lives rather than suffer such humiliation.

Seeing the elder agree, a smile appeared on Lin Feng's face.

He chuckled softly and said: "Since that's settled, after the matter is done, we'll only take the sect master's corpse and his storage ring.

As for the items in the treasury, we'll just pick a few that we need. The rest of the treasure, along with all of Golden Body Sect's territory, will belong entirely to you."

Lin Feng did indeed have plans to establish Heavenly Treasure Pavilion in the Central Plains eventually, but the Golden Body Sect's location was extremely remote, situated on the outskirts of the Western Desolate Region — likely chosen to provide better cultivation environments for their disciples.

Because of this, Lin Feng wasn't particularly interested in occupying that territory.

However, upon hearing Lin Feng's words, the two Golden-Tailed Scorpion powerhouses were visibly stunned — and then, their faces lit up with delight.

They hadn't expected these three to be so generous.

To completely give up the entire Golden Body Sect's territory without any conditions…this was a sect ranked within the top twenty of the entire Western Desolate Region!

Their holdings included countless satellite towns and numerous small subordinate factions.

If the Sand Land Golden-Tailed Scorpion Clan could take over all that land and fully absorb those resources, their overall strength would soar to new heights!

The thought alone made the Grand Elder's expression brighten, and he immediately cupped his fists: "In that case, this old man thanks you all in advance!"

Beside him, the clan leader of the Golden-Tailed Scorpions spoke up at the right moment: "If you'll wait just a moment, we'll summon our elite forces. Then, we'll join you in storming the Golden Body Sect together."

As he finished speaking, the clan leader took out a short flute and placed it to his lips.

"Woooong!"

A strange, sharp sound reverberated across the skies.

Almost instantly, figures began shooting out from various corners of the surrounding desert, racing rapidly toward their location.

In just a short while, more than a dozen figures appeared, suspended high in the air.

"Master Lin, these are the core forces of my Sand Land Golden-Tailed Scorpion Clan," the elder said proudly, gesturing toward the gathered warriors.

"Holding back the other Golden Body Sect experts will not be a problem."

Hearing this, Lin Feng nodded slightly.

These warriors were indeed strong, but the decisive factors would still be Tian Huo Zun Zhe and the Golden-Tailed Scorpion Grand Elder — both Dou Zun powerhouses.

Lin Feng then said calmly: "Since everyone's here, let's move out."

Hearing his words, everyone nodded in agreement.

Then, without another word, the entire group shot off at full speed toward the Western Region their target, the Golden Body Sect!
