A decree appears! The Star-Protecting Grand Formation's anomaly

"Crimson Flame Technique." Chen Feng learned the contents of the light sphere from the information transmitted within it.

This is not a Divine Ability, but a fire-attribute Cultivation Method that can be cultivated all the way to the Spirit Transformation stage. It also contains several secret techniques and Divine Ability.

These secret techniques and Divine Ability are all related to the fire element.

Chen Feng was naturally no longer interested in Cultivation Method. His main cultivation Cultivation Method now was the "Star Body Refining Cultivation Method," which he could cultivate all the way to the Spirit Transformation.

It's rare for cultivators to change their main cultivation Cultivation Method unless they obtain a particularly high-grade Cultivation Method.

Chen Feng then looked at the other orbs of light and probed them with his Divine Sense.

It must be said that the Cultivation Alliance has a very deep foundation.

Even the worst Cultivation Method here can be cultivated to the half-step Spirit Transformation, and most can be directly cultivated to the Spirit Transformation stage.

Moreover, each one comes with secret techniques and Divine Ability.

It should be understood that in the outside world, Cultivation Method that can be practiced to the Spirit Transformation level are almost always the foundation of their respective sects.

But the Cultivation Alliance does have so many members.

Besides the Cultivation Method, Chen Feng also discovered several Divine Ability Divine Ability, each with different capabilities, and he also saw quite a few Divine Ability.

For example, there is a Divine Ability called the Thunder Gathering Seal.

This Divine Ability can gather the power of heavenly lightning to fight enemies; once unleashed, it can create a large-scale lightning domain.

It belongs to a powerful offensive Divine Ability.

However, this Divine Ability has very high requirements for cultivation. One must have a certain talent for lightning-based Law Technique, and preferably have a lightning-related physique.

There is also a great Divine Ability called Heavenly Profound Flame. After mastering this Divine Ability, the cultivator can control an extremely cold flame called Heavenly Profound Flame.

When one cultivates to the highest level, even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can be temporarily frozen.

The Divine Ability powers here are diverse and each one is very powerful, but cultivating them either requires strict conditions or a lot of time.

Chen Feng wasn't interested in Divine Ability that required long periods of cultivation; he didn't have the time to go into seclusion for hundreds of years like other cultivators to learn a single Divine Ability.

Currently, he only possesses one Divine Ability, which is the "Celestial Annihilation Finger".

However, he almost never used this Divine Ability in actual combat.

This is because this Divine Ability requires a lot of his stellar energy, and he uses most of his stellar energy to strengthen his own defense, rarely using it to fight enemies.

Only after he reaches the Spirit Transformation can he use this Divine Ability without any worries.

There is another Divine Ability he obtained from the Void Realm, called the Soul Extraction Technique.

In terms of grade, this Divine Ability is even stronger than that of a great Divine Ability.

However, the initial requirement for cultivating this Divine Ability is to Spirit Transformation.

Without reaching the Spirit Transformation, one cannot cultivate at all.

"I already have no shortage of offensive Divine Ability, but I can't cultivate them because my cultivation level is too low. What I need to find is a support-type Divine Ability."

With a general idea in mind, Chen Feng began his search.

Soon, he discovered several Divine Ability that suited him.

One of them, called "Agile Across the Four Seas," is a Divine Ability that increases speed.

It can greatly increase a cultivator's escape speed.

However, Chen Feng did not choose this Divine Ability.

The reason is simple: he doesn't have many weaknesses in terms of speed.

Firstly, his teleportation can be replenished by the power of faith; he doesn't possess any Divine Ability that allow him to teleport faster than a cultivator.

He can now teleport more than two hundred times, which is enough.

After spending half an hour choosing, Chen Feng finally selected a Divine Ability that would be helpful to him.

This Divine Ability is called the Substitute Death Technique.

Although it's described as Divine Ability, it's actually more like a secret technique.

This Divine Ability power, as the name suggests, can take someone else's place in death.

The cultivator needs to condense a portion of their Essence Blood in advance, and then refine it into a substitute death pill using a specific method.

Once the substitute death pill is successfully made, even if a cultivator's physical body and soul are destroyed, the substitute death pill can still be activated, thus reviving the cultivator.

Cultivators, on the other hand, can place the substitute death pill in a safe place in advance, so they can be resurrected from another location.

This Divine Ability is simply defying the heavens!

However, such extraordinary feats come at a tremendous price.

Once the substitute death pill is activated, not only will the cultivator lose a thousand years of lifespan, but they will also drop two realms.

Moreover, once the substitute death pill has been used, one must wait a hundred years before being able to use this Divine Ability again.

That's not the hardest part; the hardest part is refining the substitute death pill.

It requires not only the Essence Blood of cultivators, but also a large number of precious spiritual treasures from heaven and earth.

These rare and precious items are worth nearly 500,000 top-grade Spirit Stone combined.

Five hundred thousand top-grade Spirit Stone, plus a thousand years of lifespan, are needed to exchange for a single death in place of another.

This price is not something an ordinary cultivator can afford.

Moreover, if you encounter a truly powerful being, they can kill you once, and they can kill you a second time.

"Although the conditions are harsh, it's worth it to be able to die in someone else's place."

Chen Feng ultimately decided to choose this Divine Ability.

Nothing is more important than saving your life.

In addition, this substitution technique was indeed very suitable for him; he only needed to place the refined substitution pill inside the Xingfeng Sect.

Even if he encounters a life-or-death crisis while traveling in the future, he will be fine.

Having been resurrected in the North, he could easily return to Earth using the scroll's teleportation function.

Even if a powerful figure were to pursue him to the northern border, he would not be afraid.

Having decided that he wanted this Divine Ability, Chen Feng said, "I want this substitution technique."

A voice suddenly rang out from all around:

"Are you sure? This technique has significant drawbacks; even within the alliance, very few people practice it."

The person speaking was naturally Elder Di.

"Senior, I'll take this one." Chen Feng replied confidently.

"Alright." Old Di didn't try to dissuade him any further, and the ball of light in front of Chen Feng immediately dispersed.

A beam of light entered Chen Feng's mind.

Chen Feng immediately learned the full details of the substitution technique.

Outside the Cultivation Method Pavilion.

Huang Ting and Xu Qian are waiting.

Zhengjiao remained lying on the ground, but his gaze was fixed on Old Di, who was lying on the ground.

At this moment, Chen Feng walked out of the Cultivation Method pavilion.

Upon seeing Chen Feng emerge, Huang Ting immediately went to greet him, "Fellow Daoist, have you gained anything?"

Chen Feng smiled and nodded, "We have indeed gained something."

"Haha, that's good. I'll take you to explore other places."

Huang Ting did not ask Chen Feng which Divine Ability he had chosen.

Every cultivator's Divine Ability are their trump cards, and they cannot be revealed to others casually.

If people knew the power of his Divine Ability abilities, they could easily find ways to counter them.

"Let's go." Chen Feng nodded.

They then left the Cultivation Method Pavilion together.

After Chen Feng and the others left, Old Di, who was lying on the ground, opened his eyes.

A look of surprise appeared on his face:

"They actually chose the substitution technique, how strange."

Elder Di was indeed very puzzled. There were many Divine Ability in the Cultivation Method Pavilion, including several great Divine Ability passed down from High Antiquity times.

But Chen Beijing didn't choose any of them; instead, he chose this high-cost substitution technique.

There are only two possibilities in this situation.

Either the other party doesn't recognize its value, or they look down on other Divine Ability.

Old Master Di didn't think much of it and immediately closed his eyes again.

One hour later.

Led by Huang Ting, Chen Feng toured the entire Cultivation Alliance.

Through Huang Ting's introduction, Chen Feng also learned what kind of force the Cultivation Alliance was.

Not all the cultivators here are trained by the Cultivation Alliance itself.

Most of them came from other forces on Canglan Star.

In particular, many of the Nascent Soul Cultivator are from various powerful forces, and together they form the Cultivation Alliance system.

Through this, Chen Feng also learned about the current strength of the Cultivation Alliance.

There are nearly two hundred Nascent Soul Cultivator alone, and more than thirty half-step Spirit Transformation cultivators.

This lineup is unmatched by any other faction on Canglan Star.

This also made Chen Feng understand why the Cultivation Alliance was known as the number one power on Canglan Star.

"Fellow Daoist Huang, I've finished my tour. If there's nothing else, I'll be taking my leave."

At the entrance of a grand hall, Chen Feng spoke to Huang Ting.

Upon hearing this, Huang Ting and Xu Qian both gave a wry smile.

This Sect Leader Chen came to the Cultivation Alliance specifically to take advantage of them.

Huang Ting immediately said:

"Fellow Daoist Chen, you can't leave now. There's a meeting in the alliance later about Devil Cultivator, and you need to go."

Chen Feng nodded upon hearing this. "Alright, then I'll stay a little longer."

He was thinking of leaving because he still had other things to do.

He needs to go to the Western Regions; he can't delay any longer about advancing to the Nascent Spirit Transformation stage.

About fifteen minutes later.

Huang Ting led Chen Feng into the council hall of the Cultivation Alliance.

A considerable number of people have already gathered here, mostly Nascent Soul Cultivator, including several half-step Spirit Transformation cultivators.

Leng Cangqiong, who possesses the Spirit Transformation cultivator, is also here.

Upon seeing Chen Feng arrive, everyone in the hall greeted him.

"Greetings, Acting Alliance Leader!"

After the incident at the teleportation hall, everyone tacitly accepted Chen Feng as the newly appointed acting leader of the alliance.

At this moment, Leng Cangqiong said, "Acting Alliance Leader, please take a seat."

Chen Feng did not refuse, and he immediately sat down in the head seat.

After Chen Feng took his seat, everyone else followed suit.

Leng Cangqiong then spoke:

"The people we sent to Sunset Valley last time have returned. The Alliance Leader's condition isn't good. Although he's imprisoned the Devil Cultivator, it's only temporary."

"We must find a way to completely resolve this matter concerning Devil Cultivator."

After Leng Cangqiong finished speaking, a Nascent Soul Cultivator beside him asked:

"Wasn't this matter reported to the Great Star or the Star Palace? This Devil Cultivator isn't even from our Canglan Star; we've suffered a completely undeserved disaster."

"Yes, it would be too much to ask if the Star Palace would just ignore this. We lost nearly 100,000 cultivators this time suppressing the Devil Cultivator, and the forces in the Southern Region were almost wiped out."

The expressions on everyone's faces were not very pleasant.

Leng Cangqiong said:

"I've already sent someone to inform the Star Palace, but there's still no news from them."

Chen Feng watched the discussion quietly without interrupting.

He was only there to listen in this time.

At this moment, Leng Cangqiong suddenly looked at Chen Feng and asked, "Does the Acting Alliance Leader have any suggestions?"

All eyes turned to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng thought for a moment and then said:

"Since this Devil Cultivator will break free sooner or later, why not send him off Canglan Star? As long as he's not on our Canglan Star, he won't pose a threat to us, right?"

Everyone was somewhat surprised to hear Chen Feng's suggestion.

Throwing the Devil Cultivator out of Canglan Star directly is indeed a very good method.

Leng Cangqiong shook his head and said:

"This method is not appropriate. That Devil Cultivator was sealed on our Canglan Star by the Star Palace. Once we release Devil Cultivator, Devil Cultivator might wreak havoc on other cultivation stars, and we also have no way to explain it to the Star Palace."

The others nodded in agreement upon hearing Leng Cangqiong's words.

Seeing this, Chen Feng sneered inwardly.

Their own home is almost gone, and the entire planet is in a state of panic because of the demonic disaster. They're still concerned about some kind of star palace.

Since the Star Palace has sealed the Devil Cultivator on Canglan Star, it's because they hope the Devil Cultivator won't harm other cultivation stars. Canglan Star is just a discarded pawn.

Being treated as a pawn and having to consider the other party's feelings was ridiculous to Chen Feng.

If it were him, he would definitely send this Devil Cultivator out of Canglan Star immediately.

As long as it doesn't harm him, other people's affairs are none of his business.

Leng Cangqiong then began discussing solutions to the Devil Cultivator with the others.

But it's basically the same old routine: either sending people to set up formations near Sunset Valley, or mobilizing cultivators from other domains to prevent the Devil Cultivator from escaping again.

Chen Feng didn't even bother listening; he just wanted to leave as soon as the meeting was over.

Just as Chen Feng was thinking this to himself.

A sudden change occurred on the field!

Suddenly, the entire council hall began to shake, and runes rose up around the hall!

A powerful array of energy emanated from the main hall.

This unexpected turn of events caused everyone in the room to stand up immediately, their faces showing surprise.

Not only the council hall, but all the main halls of the entire cultivation alliance were shaking violently, and runes lit up in every hall.

"What's going on? How did the Star-Protecting Array get activated?!"

A Nascent Soul Cultivator looked utterly horrified.

The main halls of the Cultivation Alliance are the core of the Star-Protecting Array, and they only react when the Star-Protecting Array is activated on its own.

This formation is already at the eighth level, and even Spirit Transformation expert could withstand it.

It can activate the formation automatically, only appearing when enemies attack.

Everyone's expression changed at that moment.

Leng Cangqiong's majestic voice rang out:

"Immediately communicate with the array spirit to see what happened."

This level of formation already possesses a formation spirit, which allows cultivators to understand the situation.

Upon hearing this, several Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Cultivation Alliance immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and began rapidly Hand Seals to communicate with the array spirit.

Chen Feng, sitting in the main seat, frowned.

Even the Star-Protecting Array has been activated on its own, which definitely indicates the presence of external forces, and this is not a good thing.

At this moment, in the middle of the council hall.

A screen of light appeared.

The scene displayed on the light screen is a scene outside the planet Canglan.

At this moment, Canglan Star was enveloped by a large net composed of golden threads, which was none other than Canglan Star's protective array.

However, no one paid attention to the protective star formation.

Instead, they looked towards the endless starry sky beyond Canglan Star.

In the distant starry sky, a streak of light was rapidly approaching Canglan Star.

The streak of light had not yet approached Canglan Star, but its terrifying pressure arrived first.

It was this oppressive force that activated the protective array of Canglan Star.

As the streak of light drew closer, everyone finally saw clearly what it was.

It was actually a golden imperial edict!
