Acting Alliance Leader? Lu Linyuan's Plan

He was merely a Nascent Soul Great Perfection, yet this Youluan had actually sent her Primordial Spirit to find him; this was highly unusual.

He didn't believe that Youluan had simply come to tell him about the situation inside Luoxia Valley.

You Luan did not answer Chen Feng directly, but instead opened her right palm.

A purple-gold token appeared in her palm.

Looking at the token in Youluan's hand, Chen Feng's doubts deepened.

Youluan said, word by word:

"This is the Order of the Leader of the Cultivation Alliance. Holding this order is equivalent to being the leader of the Cultivation Alliance. As long as it concerns the safety of Canglan Star, this order can be used to mobilize all forces on Canglan Star."

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng frowned.

"What do you mean by this, senior?"

Youluan said, "This is what Alliance Leader Lu asked me to give you. He can't leave Luoxia Valley now, and neither can the rest of us. He hopes you can help him take charge of the Cultivation Alliance."

"Why?" Chen Feng stared at You Luan.

Upon hearing Chen Feng's question, You Luan immediately smiled:

"If an ordinary person encountered such a thing, they would definitely be overjoyed. After all, obtaining this token is equivalent to becoming the leader of the Cultivation Alliance. But why do you seem not happy at all?"

You Luan was indeed surprised; she was well aware of the significance this token represented.

All the major powers with a long history have made alliances with the Cultivation Alliance.

The agreement stipulated that these forces must obey the orders of the Cultivation Alliance in the event of a crisis on Canglan Star.

This token is a kind of keepsake.

For an ordinary cultivator, the resources they could obtain if they acquired this token were unimaginable.

But Chen Feng was not tempted at all; on the contrary, he was very wary.

"If you cannot tell me the reason, then I must admit that I cannot accept this order."

Chen Feng refused decisively.

Just kidding, if he gets his hands on that thing, he'll definitely be in a lot of trouble.

If anything happens to Canglan Star in the future, he'll be the one to take the blame.

He had no desire to do something so thankless and exhausting.

Youluan said earnestly:

"I don't know the specific reason either. Perhaps Alliance Leader Lu thinks you have great potential. Are you really not planning to take me?"

Chen Feng shook his head. "Please convey to Alliance Leader Lu that I appreciate his kindness, but I am merely a Nascent Soul Cultivator and cannot bear such a responsibility."

Seeing that Chen Feng still refused, You Luan then said:

"Alliance Leader Lu said that if you encounter an insurmountable danger in the future, you can give up this identity at any time. In addition, Alliance Leader Lu also asked me to pass on something to you."

After saying that, Youluan took out another item, a palm-sized, purple mirror.

The mirror was covered with all sorts of strange runes.

Chen Feng only glanced at the mirror, but he felt a sense of vicissitude and antiquity emanating from it.

This greatly shocked Chen Feng.

This was the first time he had ever sensed such an aura emanating from a treasure.

"This item is the Tai Xu Mirror, the number one treasure of the Cultivation Alliance! It can freeze time within a certain area, although only for three breaths, but you should know what that means."

Upon hearing "freeze time, "Chen Feng's pupils constricted sharply!

He has seen many treasures.

There are Xiantian, Postnatal, and various special abilities.

But of all the time-related treasures he had ever seen, there was only one: his own painting, which could alter the passage of time.

The Taixu Mirror he was currently viewing was the second type he had ever seen.

Although it only freezes the time for three breaths, that's already incredibly powerful!

It should be understood that battles between high-level cultivators can often be decided in an instant.

Three breaths are enough for a high-level cultivator to unleash a complete Divine Ability.

"If you accept this order, this treasure will be temporarily under your control." You Luan looked at Chen Feng with a smile.

Chen Feng didn't speak, but instead fell into deep thought.

He was indeed torn.

If it weren't for this so-called Taixu Mirror, he definitely wouldn't have agreed to take this token.

But this treasure was far too useful to him.

Putting everything else aside, as long as this thing can be used to freeze the enemy, he can then throw out hundreds of three-phase bullets.

Who are the people you cannot kill?

Seeing Chen Feng's expression, You Luan spoke again:

"There are five Spirit Transformation cultivators within the Cultivation Alliance, two of whom have already reached the late Spirit Transformation stage. Although they are currently in seclusion, you can mobilize them with this token."

No sooner had You Luan finished speaking than Chen Feng's voice came through, "I accept this token."

Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, You Luan immediately smiled.

She then handed the token, along with the Taixu Mirror, to Chen Feng.

"When you have time, go to the Cultivation Alliance. At least let the people there know that you have received this order."

Chen Feng nodded. "Yes, I'll go there later."

"Then I'll be going now. Take care." Youluan's Primordial Spirit was about to leave, but then, as if remembering something, she looked at Chen Feng and said:

"I know that the Yanshen Sect had some past grievances with you, but I hope that you can consider my feelings and not make things difficult for them."

Chen Feng said with a smile:

"Senior is too kind. My conflict with your clan is nothing more than a minor one."

Youluan glanced at Chen Feng, said nothing more, and then her Primordial Spirit departed.

Chen Feng stared at the token in his hand in silence.

He ultimately accepted the token.

He absolutely must obtain such a treasure as the Taixu Mirror.

As for potential trouble later, I can simply give up the token then.

He can help if he can.

But he wouldn't get involved if it endangered his own safety.

Sunset Valley, deep within.

This place is riddled with countless spatial cracks.

If an ordinary cultivator were to enter this place, they would probably be immediately swallowed up by these spatial rifts.

At the very center of these spatial rifts, three people were sitting cross-legged.

In the very center is Lu Linyuan.

At this moment, half of his body had turned black.

His eyes, one as usual, were gold, while the other was black.

If you look closely, you can also see that there seems to be a demonic aura within those black eyes.

Standing next to Lu Linyuan were Nangong Wentian and You Luan.

Both of them were channeling their spiritual power into Lu Linyuan in order to help him suppress the Devil Cultivator.

Youluan suddenly said:

"The token has been delivered, and my Primordial Spirit is on its way back."

Even if Spirit Transformation cultivator's Primordial Spirit leaves their body, their physical body still retains a certain degree of consciousness.

Without Primordial Spirit, one can only unleash less than 10% of their strength.

Lu Linyuan asked, "Did he accept?"

Youluan said, "At first he didn't accept it, but when I took out the Taixu Mirror, he immediately agreed."

Upon hearing this, Lu Linyuan immediately smiled, but his smile was somewhat eerie.

Standing nearby, Nangong Wentian couldn't help but mutter, "This kid really won't get up early for nothing."

Youluan then said:

"Fellow Daoist Lu, even if this boy obtains the Alliance Leader's order, he probably won't take any responsibility. Although I haven't known him for long, I understand his character. If he encounters an insurmountable danger, he will definitely run away."

Lu Linyuan said with a smile:

"Isn't this normal? You would probably do the same thing if you were in his shoes. Besides, I'm not asking him to take on the responsibility of protecting Canglan Star."

Upon hearing this, both Nangong Wentian and Youluan were somewhat surprised.

Nangong Wentian seemed to have thought of something, and then said:

"You want to use this token to get help from the senior figure behind him in a crisis?"

Lu Linyuan shook his head. "I wouldn't dare to scheme against that senior. I'm just making a deal. As long as Chen Beijin accepts the token, no matter what, he will be the acting leader of the Cultivation Alliance in name only."

"Even if the Star Palace ultimately abandons our Canglan Star, as long as Chen Beijing is there, our Canglan Star will not perish."

Upon hearing this, both of them understood Lu Linyuan's plan.

Ultimately, Lu Linyuan still wanted to use the woman behind Chen Feng to help Canglan Star in times of crisis.

However, Lu Linyuan used a different method.

He didn't force the other party to help; instead, he offered the benefits first, leaving the decision of whether or not to help entirely to the other party's mood.

Youluan seemed to have thought of something, and asked with a serious expression:

Will the Star Palace really abandon us?

Lu Linyuan looked up into the depths of the starry sky and said:

"The news of the Devil Cultivator's escape must have already reached the Star Palace. If I'm not mistaken, the imperial decree will be issued soon."

"We, Canglan Star, have fought for the Weiyang Star Region for countless years. If they abandon us like this, how can we face the other cultivation stars in the star region?"

Nangong Wentian spoke with a very grim expression.

"This Devil Cultivator is impossible to kill. If I were in the Star Palace, I would probably choose to give up as well. There's nothing we can do; we're just too weak."

Lu Linyuan looked somewhat somber.

When they say they've been abandoned by the Star Palace, they don't mean it literally.

If the Star Palace abandons Canglan Star, it will cause Canglan Star to be removed from the range of the Star Domain Array.

Once Canglan Star is no longer within the range of the Star Domain Array, it will be in danger when extraterrestrial cultivators attack again.

Without the protection of the Star Domain Array, a small star like Canglan Star would have no chance against the invasion of cultivators from beyond the domain.

"Couldn't we just ask the person behind Chen Beijin to take action? With their strength, they should be able to suppress this Devil Cultivator, right?" Nangong Wentian asked unwillingly.

Lu Linyuan shook his head:

"Forget about it. I've met that senior before; she doesn't like being disturbed. Besides, Chen Beijin doesn't seem to know her identity. People like that have very strange tempers, so it's best not to interfere in her affairs."

Upon hearing Lu Linyuan's words, Nangong Wentian could only sigh.

He then looked at You Luan and asked, "Did you tell Chen Beijing to go to the Great Zhou?"

Upon hearing this, Youluan said somewhat awkwardly:

"Sorry, I forgot."

Nangong Wentian's expression froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered:

"Hmph, if that kid dares to forget this, I'll settle the score with him once I get out of here!"

You Luan didn't speak, but looked at Lu Linyuan with a worried expression.

She could sense that Lu Linyuan was acting very strangely at the moment.

Although Lu Linyuan used the Void Annihilation Divine Eye to imprison the demonic energy, it continued to erode him at every moment.

Southern Region, within the Xingfeng Sect branch.

After Chen Feng returned, he briefly told Zheng Jiao what had happened.

Upon hearing that Chen Feng had become the acting leader of the Cultivation Alliance, Zheng Jiao jumped up excitedly:

"Fellow Daoist, this is an incredible opportunity! With this token, who will dare to provoke us on Canglan Star in the future?"

Chen Feng glanced at Zheng Jiao:

"You only think about the good things, but have you ever considered that if there's a crisis on Canglan Star, shouldn't I, as the acting alliance leader, have to step in?"

"It's okay. If we encounter any serious danger, we can just run away." Zheng Jiao said with a completely nonchalant expression.

Seeing this, Chen Feng didn't continue the topic with Zheng Jiao, but instead said:

"I plan to go back to the outer sea first, and then go to the Cultivation Alliance."

Chen Feng has just received a message from Huang Ting.

Huang Ting instructed him to immediately go to the Cultivation Alliance to stabilize the situation there.

Having just received a bribe, Chen Feng couldn't refuse.

But he plans to return to the open sea first.

Upon returning to the outer seas, he naturally wanted to see the modern world.

The Spiritual Qi revival in the modern world is accelerating, and he must go back to check on it every now and then.

"Take me with you when you go to the Cultivation Alliance," Zheng Jiao immediately said.

Chen Feng glanced at Zheng Jiao: "Are you sure you don't want to recuperate for a while?"

Zhengjiao waved his hand. "It's nothing, just a minor injury."

Zhengjiao had no desire to remain at the Xingfeng Sect headquarters as a mere gatekeeper pet.

Moreover, going to the Cultivation Alliance would be a rare opportunity to show off, so he naturally wouldn't miss it.

"Okay, after we go to the Cultivation Alliance, we'll go to the Western Regions and help you find your main soul." Chen Feng had already made his plans.

He definitely has to go to the Western Regions, not only because the main soul of the cunning demon resides there.

He still needs to go to that Heavenly Fox Dynasty to borrow their Illusion Pool to temper his State of Mind.

This is something he must do to break through to the Spirit Transformation.

"Fellow Daoist, as long as I can merge with my main soul, I can even fight against Spirit Transformation monster!"

Upon hearing that Chen Feng was going to help him find his main soul, Zheng Jiao immediately became excited.

Chen Feng didn't continue chatting with Zheng Jiao, but instead went to find Ge Yunxuan.

He explained his departure to Ge Yunxuan.

At the same time, he also asked Ge Yunxuan to send someone to keep an eye on the situation in Luoxia Valley.

Although the demonic calamity was temporarily brought under control, it could reappear at any time.

After explaining everything, Chen Feng led Zheng Jiao towards the open sea.

At the same time Chen Feng left the Inner Sea.

The Cultivation Alliance also announced a message.

That means Lu Linyuan was not in trouble, but stayed in Luoxia Valley with the two Spirit Transformation cultivators to suppress the Devil Cultivator.

In a sense, this demonic calamity has been resolved.

Meanwhile, the Cultivation Alliance has begun distributing rewards to the forces that participated in the Battle of Sunset Valley to suppress demons.

Upon hearing this news, all the major powers in the Inner Sea breathed a long sigh of relief.

They've been worried about Lu Linyuan all this time.

If this number one person of Canglan Star were to die in Luoxia Valley, it would be an absolute catastrophe for Canglan Star.

Some are happy, some are sad.

The forces in other domains were naturally pleased, as they no longer needed to worry about the Demon Realm expanding into their areas.

The ones who are truly worried are the forces in the Southern Region.

Too many people died in this Falling Cloud Valley attack; many forces in the Southern Region are now left with only low-level cultivators.

Especially in Wangyue City, even the Spirit Transformation Ancestor perished in Luoxia Valley.

The entire city of Wangyue was placed under lockdown that day, cutting off all contact with the outside world.

The Cultivation Alliance also took into account the situation in the Southern Region.

They immediately dispatched additional personnel to guard the major powers in the Southern Region to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the deaths of these high-level cultivators to loot.

Although the cultivation world is a dog-eat-dog world, there are still some rules.

Some forces that perished on the battlefields beyond the realm for the sake of Canglan Star were also treated favorably by the Cultivation Alliance.

The responsibility of the Cultivation Alliance is not only to protect Canglan Star, but also to maintain its order.
