Late Foundation Establishment! The Black Coast

The same scene that occurred in the Luo Clan also happened in the Wenjian Sect.

The Sword Inquiry Sect is located on the highest peak of Moonlit Island. Among the three major forces, the Sword Inquiry Sect has the fewest members, with a total of only two thousand people.

In front of a cliff.

Jiang Feng was reporting his experiences and observations from his trip to Yingzhou to an old man sitting cross-legged on the edge of the cliff.

The old man had white hair and beard, his eyebrows drooped, and a sword rested on his legs as he sat cross-legged.

This old man is the current sect leader of the Sword Inquiry Sect.

"Sect Master, that's what happened."

After Jiang Feng finished explaining the situation, he waited quietly for the old man's reply.

The sect leader of the Sword Inquiry Sect looked towards the distant sea and said with a puzzled expression:

"Strange, how could a Yingzhou Nascent Soul True Lord appear in Yingzhou?"

Nascent Soul True Lord is a formidable figure wherever they are.

Jiang Feng said with a solemn expression, "I'm also very curious. That Nascent Soul True Lord seems to have a great connection with this Xingfeng Sect."

The sect leader of the Sword Inquiry Sect then said:

"You want to buy something related to the Xingfeng Sect?"

Jiang Feng nodded:

"That's right, Sect Master, Xingfeng Sect has many excellent things."

Immediately, Jiang Feng took out all the items he had purchased from the Xingfeng Sect.

The sect leader of the Sword Inquiry Sect glanced at the things on the ground and then said:

"Okay, go to the sect's treasury and get some Spirit Stone, then talk to the Xingfeng Sect later."

Although the Sword Inquiry Sect is the poorest of the three major powers, it still has some resources.

Jiang Feng's face immediately lit up with joy:

"Yes, Sect Master."

He was already ready to buy the television.

Although Xingfeng Sect is said to be non-saleable, he believes he can still buy it if he has enough money.

As if he had thought of something, Jiang Feng immediately asked:

"Sect Master, will the Heavenly Demon Sect give the Xingfeng Sect 100,000 mid-grade Spirit Stone?"

The Heavenly Demon Sect and the Sword Inquiry Sect have always been in conflict, and major battles frequently occur between them.

This time, the Heavenly Demon Sect has provoked a force with a Nascent Soul level, which is a good thing for their Sword Inquiry Sect.

"No." The sect leader of the Sword Inquiry Sect answered decisively.

Jiang Feng was immediately surprised.

The Sect Master of the Sword Inquiry Sect chuckled and said:

"That old fellow from the Heavenly Demon Sect isn't someone who'll easily submit. Besides, you mentioned that Nascent Soul True Lord earlier; you only sensed a fluctuation in his soul. That alone won't scare the Heavenly Demon Sect."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng frowned slightly:

"Isn't the Nascent Soul and Nascent Soul enough?"

In Jiang Feng's view, if there is fluctuation of Nascent Soul, then it must be Nascent Soul Cultivator. Facing Nascent Soul cultivator, let alone a Heavenly Demon Sect.

Even if all the forces on Moonlit Island were combined, they wouldn't be a match for Nascent Soul True Lord.

The sect leader of the Sword Inquiry Sect smiled and said nothing more.

He knew better than anyone how arrogant the Heavenly Demon Sect was; they would never compromise unless someone from the Heavenly Demon Sect saw Nascent Soul True Lord with their own eyes.

The Heavenly Demon Sect is located in the western part of Moonlit Island, a place of extreme yin energy.

Most of the cultivators in the Heavenly Demon Sect are Devil Cultivator.

There is no distinction between righteous and demonic cultivators in the Netherworld Sea.

In the eyes of cultivators in the Netherworld Sea, the strong are not defined by their origins or their system.

If you are strong enough, even a demon can be revered by thousands.

Inside a grand hall of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

The hall was shrouded in black mist, and dozens of powerful figures from the Heavenly Demon Sect had gathered there, their bodies covered in Yin Qi.

Luo Yinxue had already sent word to the Heavenly Demon Sect that Ku Xiaotian had been imprisoned by the Xingfeng Sect.

Upon receiving this news, the Heavenly Demon Sect immediately convened a high-level meeting.

"Sect Master, we need to consider this matter carefully. The Xingfeng Sect has Nascent Soul True Lord; we must investigate thoroughly before making any decisions."

An elder from the Heavenly Demon Sect spoke up.

At this moment, a thin old man stepped forward and said coldly:

"How could a Nascent Soul Cultivator possibly appear in such a mere abandoned land? It must be that the Luo Clan has deceived us, or that the Xingfeng Sect is just a bully using someone else's power."

"Sect Master, I am willing to lead a group to Yingzhou to meet with the Xingfeng Sect!"

This thin old man was none other than Ku Xiaotian's master, and one of the few cultivators in the Heavenly Demon Sect who had reached the late Golden Core stage.

The elder who had spoken earlier looked at the thin old man and said in a deep voice:

"Elder Qi, the Luo Clan has no reason to deceive us about this matter. It concerns Nascent Soul True Lord, so we must be cautious!"

Elder Qi ignored the elder and instead looked at the Heavenly Demon Sect Master in the main seat, awaiting his decision.

In fact, many people in the arena did not believe that the Xingfeng Sect would have Nascent Soul True Lord.

How could a powerful Nascent Soul True Lord possibly appear in a desolate place like Yingzhou?

That Yingzhou is a place devoid of any Spiritual Qi.

There is only one Nascent Soul True Lord on the nearby islands, and he has been in seclusion to prolong his lifespan.

If any other Nascent Soul Cultivator appeared in this sea area, that True Lord would definitely know.

How could there be absolutely no news?

The Heavenly Demon Sect Master, shrouded in Yin Qi, then spoke:

"Send someone to Yingzhou to investigate first. If Xingfeng Sect really has Nascent Soul True Lord, I will personally go and apologize. If not, then destroy Xingfeng Sect."

The voice of the Heavenly Demon Sect Master was very hoarse.

Upon hearing this, the others immediately nodded in agreement.

If it were a force of equal strength, the Heavenly Demon Sect wouldn't even need to investigate before launching a direct attack.

But when it comes to powerful figures at the Nascent Soul level, even the arrogant Heavenly Demon Sect has to think twice.

Elder Qi suddenly asked:

"Sect Master, if Xingfeng Sect truly has Nascent Soul Cultivator, then what about Xiaotian?"

The Heavenly Demon Sect Master said calmly:

"A Foundation Establishment genius isn't worth us spending 100,000 mid-grade Spirit Stone to bring him back."

After speaking, the Heavenly Demon Sect Master disappeared from the scene, and the other Heavenly Demon Sect experts also left one by one.

Inside the main hall, only Elder Qi remained, and his face was extremely grim.

Although Ku Xiaotian was his disciple, he was actually his illegitimate son.

He had carefully nurtured Ku Xiaotian for so many years, so he was naturally extremely anxious when he heard that Ku Xiaotian was in trouble.

In particular, the words of the Heavenly Demon Sect Master just made it clear that he would not use 100,000 mid-grade Spirit Stone to exchange for Ku Xiaotian.

This caused Elder Qi some concern.

"I don't believe that the Xingfeng Sect truly has Nascent Soul True Lord!"

Elder Qi suppressed his worries; he didn't believe that Xingfeng Sect would have a Nascent Soul level expert!

If such a powerful person exists, why has there been no news of them for so many years?

In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.

The Xingfeng Sect has been developing rapidly recently. With the advent of satellites, communication between martial artists in different parts of the Xingfeng Sect has become much easier.

The biggest project for the Xingfeng Sect these days is road construction.

Highways began to be built throughout the northern territory to facilitate the passage of cars.

In addition, Xingfeng Sect also began to build some factories.

However, these factories are currently only in their initial stages, mainly due to a shortage of building materials.

Chen Feng's 60 billion worth of supplies haven't arrived yet. Once these supplies arrive, Xingfeng Sect's factory can begin construction.

The Xingfeng Sect leads to a secret room.

Chen Feng remained seated cross-legged inside the hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

He has been in seclusion for two months, during which time he has been cultivating intensively.

Just then, a powerful aura suddenly emanated from Chen Feng.

The smell made the hyperbaric oxygen chamber tremble.

Immediately afterwards, the entire secret chamber was filled with a violent spiritual energy.

The cunning monster that was sleeping inside the Soul Wood Box suddenly woke up and immediately looked at Chen Feng, who was sitting cross-legged in the hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

Upon sensing the violent spiritual power within Chen Feng's body, Zheng Jiao's expression became extremely solemn.

"He's about to break through so quickly!"

Zheng Jiao was very shocked. He had seen many geniuses in the Youxinghai.

But he had never seen a genius like Chen Feng.

This cultivation speed is simply outrageous.

The cunning look in his eyes fell on the hyperbaric oxygen chamber. He knew that Chen Feng's rapid cultivation speed must be related to this thing.

He just didn't know what it was.

"He must have a big secret!" Zheng Jiao stared at Chen Feng inside the hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

But soon, he laughed at himself.

Now, he can't even recover his soul, and Chen Feng has his life in his grasp, yet he's still thinking about these things.

The spiritual energy within the sealed chamber grew increasingly violent, and just as this violent energy was about to burst the hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

The Spiritual Qi regulating bracelet on Chen Feng's wrist lit up.

With the help of the Spiritual Qi energy bracelet, the spiritual energy within Chen Feng's body gradually began to calm down.

About ten minutes later, Chen Feng opened his eyes, a smile appearing on his face.

Foundation Establishment Late Stage!

It took him two months and nearly 100,000 Spirit Stone and 1,000 mid-grade Spirit Stone to break through to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

It's normal for ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators to spend over ten years in seclusion to break through a single realm, but Chen Feng is different.

The hyperbaric oxygen chamber, modified by Lin Wei, greatly enhanced his cultivation speed, allowing him to absorb Spiritual Qi energy much faster than ordinary cultivators.

Even when the pressure in the hyperbaric oxygen chamber reached its maximum, a vortex that absorbed Spiritual Qi formed within Chen Feng's body.

Moreover, Chen Feng's conversion efficiency of absorbing Spiritual Qi reached almost 90%.

Other cultivators waste a lot of Spiritual Qi when absorbing Spiritual Qi for cultivation; a conversion rate of 50% is already considered quite good.

"We only have one thousand Spirit Stone left."

Chen Feng looked at the remaining thousand mid-grade Spirit Stone in front of him and a bitter smile appeared on his face.

Although his improvement speed is fast, his resource consumption has become terrifying.

If Liu Qian hadn't sent him 80,000 Spirit Stone beforehand, he probably wouldn't have been able to break through to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage at all.

Moreover, Chen Feng felt that the number of Spirit Stone he would need to reach the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment would be even more terrifying.

"Congratulations, fellow Daoist, you have taken another step closer to the Great Dao," came the cunning voice.

Chen Feng looked at Zheng Jiao and asked:

"After reaching the Golden Core stage in the Starry Sky Body Refining Technique, can one absorb cosmic energy?"

Chen Feng hadn't forgotten that Zheng Jiao had told him before that once he reached the Golden Core stage through cultivating the Star Body Refining Technique, he could absorb cosmic energy.

If that's the case, I might not need to rely on Spirit Stone for Cultivation Resources in the future.

Zhengjiao immediately said:

"Fellow Daoist, once you reach the Golden Core stage, you can indeed absorb cosmic energy using the Starry Sky Body Refining Technique, but you can only absorb a very small portion. The primary function of this cosmic energy is to strengthen your physical body."

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng nodded and didn't say anything more.

He also understood that relying on absorbing cosmic energy to improve his cultivation level was probably not a simple matter.

Without engaging in further idle chatter with Zheng Jiao, Chen Feng then left the secret room.

Xingfeng Sect, Council Hall.

Liu Qian was handling the affairs of the Xingfeng Sect in the council hall.

At this moment, Chen Feng suddenly appeared in the council hall.

Upon seeing Chen Feng approach, Liu Qian immediately bowed:

"Sect Master, you've emerged from seclusion!"

Chen Feng has been in seclusion for the past two months, and Liu Qian has not disturbed Chen Feng except to give Chen Feng Spirit Stone.

Now that Xingfeng Sect has entered a period of stable development, Liu Qian no longer talks to Chen Feng about ordinary trivial matters.

Only important matters are reported to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng asked, "How has the situation been inside the sect lately?"

Liu Qian replied:

"The highway from Hengduan Mountain to Ningguo is half-built, and the rest of the highways are under construction. However, due to a shortage of building materials and engineering equipment, the manpower cannot be fully utilized."

The Xingfeng Sect has no shortage of people these days.

The number of ordinary people in the entire North is enormous, and these people will work diligently as long as they are paid some wages.

However, due to a lack of specialized machinery and building materials, the scale of construction could not be expanded.

The mechanical engineering equipment Chen Feng purchased last time was far from sufficient.

"No rush, take your time. I'll send you another batch of supplies in a while."

According to Chen Feng's estimation, the supplies Jack purchased from the government should arrive soon.

Although the money hasn't been given yet, the government has provided supplies first, which is because Jack has a good relationship with the government now.

Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, Liu Qian immediately smiled:

"If we have enough building materials and equipment, we can speed up the construction process."

Liu Qian didn't ask many questions about Chen Feng's plan to carry out large-scale construction; he simply followed Chen Feng's instructions.

In the past, Liu Qian would question some of Chen Feng's decisions, but not anymore.

Because every decision Chen Feng made before proved to be correct.

"Has there been any news from overseas?" Chen Feng then inquired about this matter.

Trade cooperation with Youxinghai is the most important plan for the Xingfeng Sect in the future.

He will need a huge amount of Spirit Stone in the future.

Only one Spirit Vein has been discovered in Yingzhou so far.

It's almost impossible to cultivate to the Golden Core stage using only this one Spirit Vein.

"Not yet, but our people have already established an outpost on the Black Coast. If anyone from the Dark Star Sea arrives, we'll know immediately!"

After Luo Yinxue told Liu Qian about the teleportation array last time.

Liu Qian then asked Chen Feng for some mid-grade Spirit Stone, and subsequently sent a group of people to the Black Coast to build an outpost base.

That was also the first stop for the Xingfeng Sect to reach overseas.

Chen Feng nodded slightly. "Okay, I'll go take a look."
