The Southern Gate of Heaven Plan Begins! The Luan Bird Aerospace Carrier

Zhou Jing was very excited; she had started getting acquainted with fighter jets two weeks prior.

After half a month of familiarization, I have basically mastered the methods of piloting a fighter jet.

However, all of this knowledge is theoretical.

To this day, she has not yet test-flown a flight.

This was the fifth time she had requested her sect leader to allow a test flight.

Chen Feng had rejected all of his previous requests.

An observation post has been built to the east of the airport runway.

Chen Feng and Liu Qian are inside the observation post.

Hearing Zhou Jing's voice on the walkie-talkie, Chen Feng asked, "Are you sure everything's alright?"

Chen Feng was still worried. He hadn't even learned how to fly the fighter jet; he had only taught Zhou Jing the theoretical knowledge.

The risk of conducting a test flight prematurely is far too great.

"Sect Leader, please believe me, I'm definitely fine," Zhou Jing's firm voice rang out.

Chen Feng thought for a moment:

"Okay, then try to take off. If there is any danger, immediately activate the ejection seat to escape."

The JF-17 Thunder fighter jets are all equipped with ejection seats, which allow pilots to quickly eject and escape in an emergency.

Although a fighter jet is very expensive, its value in Chen Feng's heart cannot compare to that of Zhou Jing.

"Yes, Sect Master." Zhou Jing's voice was filled with excitement upon hearing Chen Feng's agreement.

Next to the airport runway, a dozen or so inner disciples of the Xingfeng Sect were gathered.

These dozen or so inner sect martial artists were all selected by Zhou Jing from within the inner sect, and are intended to be trained as future pilots for the Xingfeng Sect.

These people together formed the aerial formation of the Xingfeng Sect.

Chen Feng named this aerial formation Vermilion Bird, as the future aerial armed force of the Xingfeng Sect.

However, this air formation had only been established for less than half a month.

Most of the team members have only just begun to learn the theoretical knowledge.

Zhou Jing is currently the team leader.

Not only did Chen Feng establish an aerial formation, but he also created a separate armored unit for the Xingfeng Sect, named Xuanwu.

The Xuan Armored Formation consists of tanks, armored vehicles, and infantry fighting vehicles.

Although both formations have very few members, they are the true core of the Xingfeng Sect.

"Captain, are we getting ready for takeoff?"

"It should be! I'm so excited! The sect leader said that the JF-17 fighter jet is incredibly fast, capable of reaching supersonic speeds?"

What is supersonic speed?

"It's obvious you haven't studied Chinese properly. Supersonic speed is a speed, and the minimum speed for that is 340 meters per second!"

Several members of the aerial formation were discussing it.

Everyone looked at the distant fighter jets with anticipation.

Just then, the sound of fighter jet engines on the runway suddenly intensified, and a huge roar was heard.

Immediately afterwards, the fighter jet began to accelerate its taxiing speed.

When the speed reached its peak, the fighter jet suddenly raised its head, like a giant raptor soaring into the sky.

The fighter jet soared into the sky, its speed increasing rapidly.

The air formation members on the runway all gazed intently at the fighter jets in the sky.

"Wow, that's fast! My eyes can't keep up with that speed!"

"The captain is amazing!"

"Was that a sonic boom? It was so powerful!"

Everyone was amazed; fighter jets are much faster than helicopters.

As the fighter jets took off.

The sonic booms from the fighter jets echoed throughout the Hengduan Mountain.

"What is this? It's incredibly fast!"

"I don't know, it might be a newly crafted treasure from the upper sect."

"Why does this flying object have such a strange shape?"

People from many martial arts factions in the Hengduan Mountain were talking about it.

Fighter jets were something that had never appeared in the Painting Scroll World, which naturally aroused the curiosity of many people.

The martial artists of the Xingfeng Sect were also discussing the fighter jets in the sky.

"Is this the flying artifact from before? It can actually fly so fast."

"I really want to join the Vermilion Bird Sect. I heard that not only will your monthly salary increase, but you'll also receive special training from the sect," an inner sect martial artist said enviously.

The other martial artists felt the same way; who wouldn't want to pilot a fighter jet and soar through the sky?

However, entering the Suzaku aerial formation is not so easy; even now, Suzaku only has a dozen or so members.

These dozen or so people are the elite of the elite, possessing exceptional talent in piloting aircraft.

On the road outside the Hengduan Mountain.

Ge Yunxuan appeared here with his men.

After traveling for half a month, they finally arrived at the territory of the Xingfeng Sect.

A group of people were standing behind Ge Yunxuan.

This group of people were originally cultivators from the Great Jin Dynasty, although many cultivators from the Great Jin Dynasty chose to escape or join the Great Yu Dynasty.

However, there were still some loyal to the Great Jin royal family.

Besides Uncle Yuan, there were three other Foundation Establishment cultivators following him, all of whom were core members of the Great Jin royal family.

In addition to the Foundation Establishment cultivators, there are twenty Qi Refining cultivators.

"Yunxuan, is it really true that Xingfeng Sect is located on this small hill?" a Foundation Establishment expert asked.

He is Ge Yunxuan's royal uncle, named Ge Tianli, a Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivator.

The others were also quite surprised to see the Hengduan Mountain in the distance.

They had long heard of the Xingfeng Sect, a powerful force.

After all, the Xingfeng Sect had made even the Great Yu bow down, a fact known to the higher-ups of the Great Jin.

They had originally assumed that Xingfeng Sect must be a powerful force with a very deep foundation.

But now, the headquarters of the Xingfeng Sect is located on this small hill.

The highest point of the Hengduan Mountain is only a thousand meters high.

The Great Jin Dynasty has countless hills like these.

Ge Yunxuan said, "According to the information we've gathered, Xingfeng Sect hasn't been established for very long, so it's not surprising that they've set up their presence here. Moreover, the size of their territory doesn't necessarily reflect their strength."

After speaking, Ge Yunxuan scanned the crowd and continued:

"Uncles and elders, please don't be arrogant then. We've come here today to seek refuge with the Xingfeng Sect."

He knew all too well how arrogant his royal uncles were.

Once a cultivator reaches the Foundation Establishment, they can practically do whatever they want in Yingzhou.

Furthermore, with their status as members of the Great Jin Dynasty, these members of the royal family are respected wherever they go.

Ge Tianli sighed and said:

"Yunxuan, now that our Great Jin has been destroyed, what is there for us to be proud of? From now on, we will obey your every command."

The other members of the royal family nodded in agreement. The Great Jin Dynasty had already been destroyed, and their arrogance had long since vanished.

Now their only worry is that the Golden Core cultivator will come after them.

"Okay, let's go."

Ge Yunxuan nodded, and he prepared to lead his men toward the Hengduan Mountain.

But just then, a deafening roar suddenly echoed in the sky.

This brought everyone to a standstill.

Everyone looked up at the sky.

A fighter jet was soaring through the sky at an incredible speed; all that could be seen was its contrail as it cut through the clouds.

"What is this? A Buddhist boat?"

"No, what kind of magical ship can reach such a speed? Even the Heavenly Cloud Ship of my Great Jin Dynasty doesn't have such a terrifying speed."

"Then what is this?"

The cultivators of the Great Jin Dynasty were all astonished; even though they were all very knowledgeable, they had never seen anything like a fighter jet before.

"This should be the special treasure of the Xingfeng Sect." Ge Yunxuan's face turned solemn.

Possessing a flying artifact with such speed gave him a new understanding of the strength of the Xingfeng Sect.

Soon, the group arrived near the mountain path of the Hengduan Mountain.

Upon arriving here, their attention was immediately drawn to Xingfeng City in the distance.

Today, the city walls of Xingfeng City are all made of concrete, and they have a certain modern style.

Outside the Xingfeng Sect, there are rows of utility poles that extend all the way to the Xingfeng Sect on the Hengduan Mountain.

"This city?" Uncle Yuan asked, full of surprise.

He had seen many cities, but this was the first time they had ever seen a city with such a strange shape as Xingfeng City.

Ge Yunxuan looked at the Xingfeng Sect City in the distance with a face full of surprise.

Since arriving at this Xingfeng Sect, he felt as if he had entered a new world, with many things he had never seen before.

While the group was still marveling at the architectural style of the Xingfeng Sect...

Tanks and armored vehicles drove past in the distance.

The person driving the tank in the front row is Zhang Xuan; he had just returned from a training exercise with his men.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan was already a captain of the Xuan Armor Squadron of the Xingfeng Sect.

This was also due to Liu Qian's promotion.

The power structure of the Xingfeng Sect) has now been subdivided.

Chen Feng was the highest-ranking among them, followed by Wang Hu and Liu Qian.

Liu Qian manages all non-combat matters of the Xingfeng Sect, while Wang Hu is mainly responsible for combat matters.

Below them are the deacons and the captains of each squad.

These people are also the core force of the Xingfeng Sect.

The cultivators of the Great Jin Dynasty were dumbfounded as they watched the tanks approaching from afar.

They had seen plenty of carriages and ships, but they had never seen such a massive metal object before.

Moreover, these massive metal objects, despite having no wheels, were able to move.

The tank at the front stopped in front of Ge Yunxuan and his group.

Zhang Xuan opened the tank hatch. "Who are you?"

Zhang Xuan's face showed vigilance, as the tank cannons and armored vehicle machine guns around them were already aimed at Ge Yunxuan and his group.

Zhang Xuan sensed danger from the aura emanating from the people in front of him.

Ge Yunxuan cupped his hands and said, "I am Ge Yunxuan from the Great Jin Dynasty, here to pay my respects to Sect Master Chen of your esteemed sect."

Upon hearing that they were from the Great Jin Dynasty, Zhang Xuan said, "Wait a moment, I'll contact someone."

Zhang Xuan took out a walkie-talkie and began to inform Liu Qian of the news.

Xingfeng Sect, Council Hall.

Chen Feng and Liu Qian appeared at the entrance of the council hall.

"Sect Master, Ge Yunxuan has come here, probably intending to pledge allegiance to us," Liu Qian said.

Liu Qian has already received news of the Great Yu's attack on the Great Jin. Ge Yunxuan's arrival at the Xingfeng Sect is very likely to be to seek refuge with them.

Chen Feng said, "We'll know when he gets here."

As the two were talking, Ge Yunxuan and the others were led to the entrance of the council hall by the martial artists of the Xingfeng Sect.

Ge Yunxuan immediately turned his gaze to Chen Feng.

This was the first time he had met Chen Feng.

But he had already deduced that the person in front of him should be Chen Feng, the sect leader of the Xingfeng Sect.

Information about the leader of the Xingfeng Sect is scarce.

Outsiders only know that the leader of the Xingfeng Sect is very young, but there is no other information available.

Ge Yunxuan was quite surprised to see Chen Feng now.

Because Chen Feng looked younger than him, while the other party was already Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"I am Ge Yunxuan from the Great Jin Dynasty. Greetings, Sect Leader Chen!" Ge Yunxuan clasped his hands in greeting to Chen Feng.

He was very polite, after all, he had come to seek refuge with the Xingfeng Sect, so he naturally had to be humble.

Chen Feng smiled slightly, "Fellow Daoist Ge, please come in."

Chen Feng turned and walked towards the council hall.

Ge Yunxuan quickly followed, and the other members of the Great Jin royal family also wanted to go in, but Ge Yunxuan stopped them.

"You wait for me here!"

Bringing so many people into the council hall so rashly might displease Chen Feng, a point Ge Yunxuan had considered.

Ge Tianli cautioned, "Be careful."

From the moment they saw Chen Feng, the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Great Jin Dynasty all wore very solemn expressions.

Chen Feng gave them the impression that he was not simple, and even a little bit oppressive.

This led them to conclude that the sect leader of the Xingfeng Sect was probably not an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Ge Yunxuan nodded and then entered the council hall.

"I wonder what brings Fellow Daoist Ge to my Xingfeng Sect?" Chen Feng asked from the main seat.

He rarely met outsiders, but he still planned to meet Ge Yunxuan. Ge Yunxuan had protected the souls of Wu Xing and the others, so Xingfeng Sect owed him a favor.

Ge Yunxuan immediately said:

"Sect Leader Chen, you must be aware of the current predicament of our Great Jin. That Golden Evil Cultivator not only killed my ancestor, but also colluded with the Great Yu to slaughter one hundred million lives in our Great Jin."

"Now, my Great Jin Dynasty exists in name only, and we will inevitably be hunted down by the Great Yu Dynasty. I have come to your esteemed sect to seek a safe haven for the cultivators of my Great Jin Dynasty."

Upon hearing Ge Yunxuan refer to Golden Evil Cultivator, Chen Feng couldn't help but admire the guy's shamelessness.

As long as they are cultivators from Yingzhou, they are basically no different from Evil Cultivator.

Aren't Ge Yunxuan and the others also cultivating by absorbing blood and Spiritual Qi?

Now they're accusing others of Evil Cultivator.

Chen Feng did not directly answer Ge Yunxuan's request, but instead asked:

"Does Fellow Daoist Ge have any specific information about that Golden Core cultivator?"

Ge Yunxuan's face was solemn:

"That Golden Evil Cultivator came from overseas and should have some connection with the High Antiquity sect, the Divine Transformation Sect. As for his specific origins, I don't know."

The reason they knew that the Golden Core cultivator was related to the Yan Shen Sect was because the Great Yu Dynasty was founded by the descendants of the Yan Shen Sect.

Furthermore, it was Lin Li who took the initiative to say that he was a descendant of the Yan Shen Sect at the entrance of the Golden Core Secret Realm, which is why he was not killed.

Upon hearing the name Yan Shen Sect, Chen Feng recalled the Soul Control Technique he cultivated, which originated from the Yan Shen Sect.

Ge Yunxuan stood up at this moment:

"Sect Leader Chen, all I desire is a place to settle down, and I have brought my sincerity with me this time."

After saying that, Ge Yunxuan patted the Storage Bag on his body.

Five thousand Spirit Stone and a magic ship appeared in the room.

This magical ship was about the size of a palm, entirely white, and covered with various strange runes.

"Because the treasury of our Great Jin Dynasty was looted, few treasures remain. Now, only this Heavenly Cloud Boat is left. This boat is the fastest flying magical Law Artifact in the Great Jin Dynasty. It can carry a thousand people and its top speed can reach ten meters per breath!"

"As for the five thousand Spirit Stone, consider it my gift to the Xingfeng Sect."

Ge Yunxuan spoke sincerely.

He knew very well that relying solely on past favors wouldn't be enough to secure the protection of the Xingfeng Sect.

Something has to be given up.

Looking at the magic ship and Spirit Stone in front of him, Chen Feng said:

"Fellow Daoist Ge, it's not like that. You already did me a favor by returning the souls of my disciples earlier."

Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, Ge Yunxuan showed a regretful expression and said:

"I didn't contribute much, it's just a pity that the Golden Core cultivator's Law Treasure was too powerful, otherwise I might have been able to save Deacon Wu and the others."

Chen Feng then turned to look at Liu Qian:

"Please make arrangements for Fellow Daoist Ge. Choose a place for him and his companions to stay in the future."

Liu Qian nodded and then stood up. "Young Master Ge, please come with me."

Ge Yunxuan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Sect Leader Chen."

Ge Yunxuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Feng agreed, which gave him some security.

At the very least, if a Golden Core cultivator wants to cause him trouble, he'll have to come to the Northern Territory first, and once he gets there, he'll have to get past the Xingfeng Sect.

Liu Qian then left with Ge Yunxuan.

After the two left, Chen Feng put away the magic boat and Spirit Stone.

For Chen Feng, agreeing to stay in the Northern Territory with Ge Yunxuan wouldn't have a significant impact on him, as the Xingfeng Sect's strength wasn't as weak as it used to be.

Foundation Establishment cultivators do not pose a significant threat to the Xingfeng Sect.

As for the Golden Core cultivator coming to cause trouble, Chen Feng wouldn't care at all.

Even if the other party doesn't cause him trouble, he will still cause trouble for them.

From the moment the other party killed Wu Xing and the others, this Golden Core cultivator was already on his kill list.
