Chen Shuangbai stopped and watched with great interest the two star-like creatures hunting each other.

After swallowing the Starlight Bird, the Starlight Lynx visibly swelled up, and the starlight around it became more solid, radiating a stronger aura than before.

It even licked its lips with great agility, seemingly still wanting more, and lingered in place for a moment before turning and running off in another direction, presumably to continue searching for its next prey.

But before they had taken more than a few steps, the starlight lynx stopped and looked suspiciously in Chen Shuangbai's direction.

Upon seeing Chen Shuangbai standing in the starry sky, the starlight lynx, as if it had spotted a delicious meal, opened its "blood-red maw" and pounced without hesitation.

Seeing this, Chen Shuangbai shook her head with a wry smile.

"I never imagined I would one day become the prey."

A touch of platinum emerged from above, rippling outwards like waves, transforming into a pure white treasure mirror. A beam of pure white, chilling, and mysterious light shot out, blasting the arrogant starlight creature that had charged at them back to its original form.

jingle!

A rhombus-shaped crystal, emitting a soft starlight, fell to the spot.

Chen Shuangbai slowly grasped the starlight crystal, then absorbed and refined it by circulating his profound internal energy.

"Huh?"

After letting out a soft exclamation, he could clearly feel that his Nascent Soul had become somewhat solidified.

Chen Shuangbai's eyes lit up slightly, and she murmured, "There's such a wonderful thing!"

He continued forward, during which several more starlight creatures that intended to devour him crashed into him, only to be reverted to their original forms by Chen Shuangbai and become his cultivation resources.

After several attempts, Chen Shuangbai clearly noticed that her Nascent Soul was much more solid than before.

"What a treasure trove!"

The degree to which Nascent Soul's nascent soul is solidified is directly related to their foundation in cultivation and their potential to eventually reach the Nascent Spirit Transformation stage.

Many Nascent Soul Cultivator are stuck at a certain bottleneck for many years without making any progress, often because their Nascent Soul is not solid enough to bear higher levels of power.

Nascent Soul is not solid enough, it will also be unable to convert more spiritual energy, and the cultivator's own reserves of Law Power and Divine Ability abilities will also be affected.

Outside.

The reason Chen Shuangbai was able to suppress and even kill Beigong Dong and Ji Jiyi was primarily because he himself was a [ Heaven Nascent Soul ], Divine Ability powers and Law Power reserves were superior to theirs.

Furthermore, his lineage of Daoist teachings is among the best in the entire Celebrated Splendor Continent.

"Hunting these star-like beings here and refining their crystals can directly increase the solidity of one's Nascent Soul —if word of such fortuitous opportunity were to spread to the outside world, Nascent Soul Cultivator throughout the entire cultivation world would probably go crazy for it!"

Chen Shuangbai murmured to herself, her eyes growing brighter and brighter.

His true purpose in scheming for this immortal island was to cultivate himself.

His battles with the dragons, the Peacock, and the fellow cultivator True Lord Purple Thunder were all for the sake of cultivation.

But now, with such a great fortuitous opportunity to enhance his cultivation right before him, how could Chen Shuangbai not be overjoyed?

He calmed himself down, put aside all other thoughts, and began hunting down the star creatures in this place, refining the star crystals he obtained so that he could reach the Nascent Soul Middle Stage as soon as possible.

Having made up his mind, he didn't linger any longer. With a flicker, he transformed into a golden-white sword rainbow, wandering freely in this vast and boundless expanse.

Along the way, he encountered many more star creatures. These creatures were of various shapes and sizes, some were birds and beasts, some were plants, insects and fish, and some were strange forms that were completely unrecognizable.

Most of them only had the strength of Foundation Establishment and Golden Core, posing no threat to Chen Shuangbai at this moment.

The [ Swaying Moon Sunken Cold Treasure Mirror ] hangs high above, occasionally flashing brightly, its pure white, Vast Cold Slaughtering Mystic Light piercing through the approaching starlight creatures.

These star-like beings seem to have been created by this special space, lacking even a trace of the wisdom of ordinary human and Demon Cultivator who seek advantage and avoid harm.

Its instinct is to devour its own kind, which are also star creatures, and then continuously grow stronger.

As he traveled, he refined the crystals, and his Nascent Soul solidified at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This feeling is extremely wonderful, like a foundation that was originally somewhat loose and unstable being compacted layer by layer, becoming more and more solid and substantial.

"At this rate, if I can hunt enough star creatures, I'm afraid I'll be able to reach the threshold of the Nascent Soul Middle Stage stage in just a few years."

Chen Shuangbai secretly made a plan in her heart.

After Nascent Soul, the speed of cultivation and breakthroughs slowed down again.

Take, for example, the one Chen Shuangbai knows.

Take the senior Old Man Fish Pillow Elder of the Flower Washing Sword Sect as an example. It took him nearly three hundred years to break through from the Nascent Soul Early Stage to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

The first reason is naturally because the higher the realm, the slower the cultivation. The second reason is also because... the highest realm this continent can support is only the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

The spiritual energy, spiritual resources, Cultivation Method, secret techniques, and so on required to reach the Nascent Soul Realm are not easily obtained.

Don't you see, those Nascent Soul Late Stage are all nearing the lifespan limit of their current realm?

Before long, as the number of star creatures in this area decreased, Chen Shuangbai continued towards the direction where the star Spirit Power was most concentrated, which he could vaguely sense.

As they delve deeper, the star creatures that appear become increasingly powerful.

Among them were even many star-like beings who had already taken human form and whose strength had reached the Peak Golden Core Stage.

Such star-like beings cannot be pierced by a single beam of the Vast Cold Slaughtering Mystic Light... it would take at least three or five beams.

However, the purity of the starlight crystals that fell from this humanoid starlight being also satisfied Chen Shuangbai.

After traveling for about two hours, Chen Shuangbai suddenly stopped.

Not far ahead, the starlight suddenly thinned out, replaced by a vast lake that seemed to be formed from pure starlight!

The lake surface shimmered, reflecting the starry sky, a scene of breathtaking beauty, like a dream.

But this is not unclaimed land!

Chen Shuangbai looked closely.

A figure sat cross-legged in the very center of the starlight lake, using the vast amount of starlight in the lake to temper his physical body, but a faint aura of death emanated from his body.

As if sensing the unusual aura approaching, the seated figure slowly raised its head, its slightly vacant eyes looking over—

However, this also allowed Chen Shuangbai to see the person's true appearance.

This person was dressed in a golden robe, with a full forehead, high eyebrows, and a thick head of black hair, each strand distinct, radiating a golden glow. His powerful Qi and Blood were tightly locked within his body, like an invisible force swaying in the wind.

But those eyes alone were empty and lifeless, as if no soul resided within them, merely an empty shell.

"What's going on... His soul has already perished, so why has his physical body been preserved?"
