Before Zhang Xingfeng could State of Mind down, the next day, the purple light enveloped Zhang Xingfeng in the same instant and then merged into his body.

This time, there was no heart-wrenching tremor; instead, a mark was deeply imprinted on the depths of his soul, a profound mystery he could not comprehend.

"Anger"

Zhang Xingfeng easily sensed the mark and instantly felt an overwhelming surge of anger rushing towards him. Zhang Xingfeng immediately severed the connection between his mind and the mark.

"How can it be so powerful? It's terrifying! It almost affected my mind. I'll have to be careful with this thing in the future, otherwise, a sudden change in my mental state will be detrimental to my cultivation," Zhang Xingfeng exclaimed.

But it wasn't over yet; a third purple light then merged into Zhang Xingfeng's body...

"Sorrow"

Zhang Xingfeng seemed to return to that moment back in the Yuwen Family, that heartbreaking moment... as if he had returned to the moment when the sky and earth collapsed the instant he first learned of Rou's death...

Suddenly, Zhang Xingfeng felt a jolt in his mind, and his mind returned to normal. Only then did he realize that he had been affected by the mark. However, Zhang Xingfeng felt very heavy-hearted because he thought of Rou. Zhang Xingfeng shook his head and tried to suppress his emotions.

"Hmm... it seems this purple light isn't bad for me either. It didn't attack me much just now, but the leaked power completely affected me. However, the leaked power alone is so powerful, so this mark must be extraordinary." Zhang Xingfeng sighed inwardly.

Zhang Xingfeng looked at the chaotic void and saw that there was no longer any purple light.

Suddenly, another purple light rushed towards Zhang Xingfeng from afar.

Zhang Xingfeng smiled broadly, preparing to receive the purple light. Aside from the first tremor, the other two hadn't affected him, so it seemed this time would be similar.

"Boom!"

Zhang Xingfeng felt a deafening roar in his head as countless imprints and talismans flooded into Zhang Xingfeng mind...

"Why do they look so familiar?" Zhang Xingfeng suddenly realized that these marks seemed very familiar. "That's right, these marks are similar to those from back then..."

"Are those three thousand marks on the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art about the same?" With this in mind, Zhang Xingfeng quickly absorbed all the marks and talismans according to the pattern.

Wei

This is the fourth mark!

"Hahahaha... Kid, you finally understand! The first three marks were the essence of the first three forms of the 'Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art' you learned before! So when you first absorbed those three marks, you only needed to accept the marks themselves, without needing to absorb the Method Formula themselves. You're not bad, kid. It's just a pity you only have Innate Fire Spirit Body instead of a thunder spirit body, otherwise I could have taken you as my disciple. However, thunder and fire complement each other. Learning a little bit will still benefit you. But since you don't have a thunder spirit body, you can't possibly learn all nine forms. I wonder how many of the nine forms of the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder can you learn... Haha, young man, each form below is more painful than the last..." The aged voice echoed in the chaotic space.

Zhang Xingfeng was stunned for a moment before he reacted: "Senior, senior!", but there was no response.

At that moment, the fifth purple light also rushed towards Zhang Xingfeng, instantly surrounding Zhang Xingfeng...

If someone from the Tianluan Sect were to break Zhang Xingfeng's restriction at this moment, they would discover that there are nine purple stripes on the mysterious stone tablet. Five of them have already begun to shoot out purple lightning, which merges into the purple cocoon!

The fifth stripe is emitting a dazzling light...

Headache and mental fatigue!

This was Zhang Xingfeng's first thought: Finally... finally, he had absorbed the essence of the fifth form—"Punishment."

But before Zhang Xingfeng could rest, the sixth beam of purple light surged forth. Zhang Xingfeng could only grit his teeth and desperately begin to absorb it. Ever since hearing the words of that aged voice, he knew he was incredibly lucky. Now he would absorb as much as he could; if he couldn't absorb any more, he would never have another chance!

His mind worked with lightning speed, constantly searching for patterns in the imprints of the first five forms, striving to analyze them...

Suddenly, a golden cloud-like script appeared in Zhang Xingfeng's mind; it was the sixth mark—"Madness."

"Damn it, just keep going, just keep going! If I give up, I'll have no chance left!" Zhang Xingfeng gritted his teeth and persevered. He was already feeling intensely exhausted, his head was spinning, but he knew he had to persevere, he had no choice but to persevere...

The seventh beam of purple light finally shot over, and Zhang Xingfeng's mind began to work frantically once again, absorbing it...

Zhang Xingfeng suddenly felt a strong dizziness. He knew he was reaching his limit and cried out in his heart, "Just a little longer, just a little longer!" Zhang Xingfeng absorbed the energy frantically, but suddenly it felt as if the world was collapsing, and Zhang Xingfeng felt himself faint instantly.

However, Zhang Xingfeng fainted with a smile, because he had already sensed the seventh mark—"Absolute"—before he lost consciousness.

Suddenly, the mysterious stone tablet flashed with purple light and quickly disappeared. The purple cocoon also shattered instantly, and Zhang Xingfeng landed on the ground.

Although Xiao Lin and the others knew that Zhang Xingfeng had gone to Tianluan Star to observe the mysterious stone tablet, they never expected that a day would pass and Zhang Xingfeng would still not return. Xiao Lin immediately took Hong Xiao, Yu Yan and the others and rushed over.

Upon arriving at the mysterious stone tablet, Xiao Lin discovered the restriction. Xiao Lin immediately broke the restriction with a single axe stroke and entered. Before him lay a purple silkworm cocoon. Xiao Lin and his companions instantly sensed Zhang Xingfeng's presence within the cocoon.

Yu Yan, Xiao Lin and the others wanted to rush over, but they couldn't get close at all. The purple lightning was like a solid protective shield, which even the Sky-Opening Divine Axe couldn't budge. So they could only watch the cocoon.

They watched as the sixth stripe also merged into the purple cocoon.

A day has already passed!

"When are we going to get to this point? Are we going to have to wait until all nine purple stripes on the stone tablet have merged into the cocoon?" A Yu muttered, already getting impatient after waiting all day.

Yu Yan, however, stood to the side, carefully observing the silkworm cocoon. She hadn't uttered a single word all day, simply waiting and watching...

Xiao Lin glared at A Yu, and A Yu knew she was in the wrong. She didn't say anything and just continued to wait.

When the seventh stripe merged into the purple cocoon, Yu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"The cocoon is moving! The cocoon is moving!" Yu Yan exclaimed in surprise.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Lin immediately used his Divine Sense to carefully observe the area and easily discovered that the energy on the silkworm cocoon had begun to fluctuate violently.

With a sudden flash of purple light from the mysterious stone tablet, all the purple light vanished instantly, and the stone tablet returned to its previous state. Zhang Xingfeng had already landed on the ground. Xiao Lin and the others rushed forward to carefully check on Zhang Xingfeng's condition.

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that my mind was too exhausted and I need to rest for a while!" Xiao Lin and Zhang Xingfeng both possessed the Limitless Power, so Xiao Lin easily noticed Zhang Xingfeng's condition and immediately explained to Yu Yan.

Yu Yan felt much more at ease, but still decided to stay by Zhang Xingfeng's side. Xiao Lin immediately arranged for Zhang Xingfeng to stay at the Tianluan Sect, which was nearby.

Yu Yan stayed by Zhang Xingfeng's bedside, never leaving his side. Fortunately, she was already a cultivator Tribulation Transcendence and could go without food or water, but she guarded him for three whole days. Three days later, Zhang Xingfeng slowly opened his eyes.

"Brother Feng, you're awake!" Yu Yan exclaimed in surprise.

Zhang Xingfeng smiled slightly, reached out and touched Yu Yan's face, and said calmly, "I'm fine, it's just that my mental energy is quite depleted. Sigh, last time in the Hall of Illusory Fire God I decided not to completely deplete my mental energy for cultivation anymore, but this time, I really couldn't bear to give up this rare opportunity. It's too painful to be completely depleted of mental energy, but I finally learned seven moves of the 'Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art'!" Zhang Xingfeng's smile was very bright.

As soon as Zhang Xingfeng woke up, he realized that he had mastered the first seven moves of the "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art"!

Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art: Arrival of the Thunder God - Mad Snake Dance!

Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art: Wrath of the Thunder God - World Annihilation!

Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art: Thunder God's Lament - Annihilation!

Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art: Thunder God's Might - Awe-inspiring!

Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art: Thunder God's Punishment - All Immortals!

Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art - Thunder God's Madness - Annihilation!

Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art: Thunder God's Ultimate - Killing God!

Zhang Xingfeng muttered, "Killing God, Killing God! This seventh move can Killing God. What about the eighth and ninth moves?" Then, Zhang Xingfeng's heart leaped with joy. "Such a powerful attack Method Formula will become the most treasured artifact of my Tianxin Sect. However, my current strength only allows me to use the fourth move, which is a real pity. But once I reach the Immortal Emperor realm, I can Death God! That's incredible!"

"Brother Feng, what's wrong?" Yu Yan noticed that Zhang Xingfeng seemed to be thinking about something else.

Zhang Xingfeng abruptly composed himself, looked at Yu Yan, and smiled, saying, "This time I've obtained an extraordinary Method Formula. You can learn the first three forms." The first three forms can be used with True Primordial Energy or immortal essence, though using immortal essence is dozens of times more effective! However, from the fourth form onwards, only those at the Nine Heavens Profound Immortal level can use them! Zhang Xingfeng couldn't understand this point.

In reality, many people across countless dimensions have learned the first three moves of that mysterious man, but from the fourth move onwards, it's impossible to learn them without his personal instruction. He only did this to find a disciple. This time, he was only able to teach Zhang Xingfeng seven moves out of respect for the Old Man Huo behind Zhang Xingfeng!

The difference between the third and fourth moves is like heaven and earth, but Zhang Xingfeng does not yet understand how terrifying each move from the fourth move onwards is!

Upon hearing Zhang Xingfeng's words, Yu Yan immediately said, "Then teach me quickly! What amazing Method Formula is it?"

Zhang Xingfeng smiled and began to teach Yu Yan the Method Formula. Although he could use Jade Slip to teach her, Zhang Xingfeng preferred to explain it to Yu Yan slowly and patiently.

Three days later!

Yu Yan finally learned these three moves. During this time, Xiao Lin arranged for many people to touch the mysterious stone tablet, but to his disappointment, not a single person received the instruction like Zhang Xingfeng. Touching the stone tablet revealed nothing special. Even Xiao Lin himself touched it several times and found nothing unusual.

The mysterious man only taught Zhang Xingfeng out of respect for Old Man Huo. Otherwise, why hadn't countless people observed and carefully examined the stone tablet over the years and received the teachings? Although Xiao Lin was Pangu's disciple and had some background, in the mysterious man's eyes, that background was practically nonexistent! So... Xiao Lin also suffered a setback and gained nothing.

Since common sense had led to failure, Xiao Lin didn't care anymore. After all, the power of his Sky-Opening Divine Axe and the strength of the Six Revolutions Profound Body Art were already top-tier. Xiao Lin understood the principle that one shouldn't bite off more than one can chew.

Zhang Xingfeng spent three days absorbing the mark in the day or two before the celebration banquet, three days recovering his mind, and now he's teaching Yu Yan, which also took three days. In total, it's been about ten days.

Meanwhile, the Black Sun Ancestor was already not far from the Black Prison Starfield.

"We'll be there in half a day. Those bastards from the Blood Kill Gate haven't made a move in the last Heavenly Movement. I don't even need to change direction. They're moving quite fast. Hmm, it seems that bastard is currently in the Black Prison Starfield!" The Black Sun Ancestor stood inside the Star Brilliance, carefully observing the star map and comparing it with his own senses. Because Zhang Xingfeng Star Brilliance was only half a day's journey away, even with his mid-stage Demon Lord power, he could vaguely sense the location.

"Half a day, only half a day, my son Hei Yan, don't worry, after half a day, your father will definitely avenge you!" Black Sun Ancestor Ri sneered, a wisp of black light constantly emanating from his hand.

At this moment, Zhang Xingfeng, on the Tianluan Star, suddenly felt a pang of fear. His brows furrowed; a bad premonition had been lurking within him, just as it had when he saved Lang Feng and Yu Yan years ago. He trusted his intuition, so he decided to leave the Black Prison Starfield immediately!
