Turmoil in Sakura Country
The crimson hand in the sky had just descended.
The entire world trembled.
Seeing the large hand coming at him, Chen Feng's expression also became serious.
Without a doubt, the person who made the move was a true Spirit Transformation stage expert!
The attack came incredibly fast, and its terrifying pressure immediately sealed off the space for hundreds of miles around.
Chen Feng had no way to escape using teleportation.
A cultivator at the Spirit Transformation stage is already able to influence the surrounding space.
This is why Spirit Transformation cultivators can instantly kill Nascent Soul; teleportation is useless against such powerful beings.
Unless one uses teleportation from a great distance in advance, there is no possibility of escape.
Faced with this massive, blood-red hand, Chen Feng knew he had no choice but to take it head-on.
He immediately raised his right hand and pointed it at the blood-red hand!
This gesture was completely calm!
However, stellar energy was rapidly gathering at Chen Feng's fingertips.
Immediately afterwards, a point of light flew out from his fingertip.
The point of light transformed into a miniature star during its flight.
The giant hand collided with the stars!
Boom!
The moment the two collided, a burst of blood-red light and starlight-studded white light erupted.
Most of Qingling Mountain was now covered by these two kinds of light.
The cultivators in the market did not sense any powerful energy fluctuations; they could only see the blood-red light and starlight in the depths of the sky.
The light lasted only a moment before disappearing.
Immediately afterwards, a strange energy appeared in the sky.
Wherever this strange energy passed, space began to rapidly disintegrate.
And that blood-red hand was also annihilated in that instant.
The strange energy spread extremely quickly, soon approaching the market array of Qingling Mountain.
The formation immediately erupted with intense energy fluctuations, and then began to shake violently!
Click!
Cracks began to appear on the array's light barrier, and these cracks were multiplying at an extremely rapid rate.
Upon seeing cracks appear in the great formation, the cultivators in the market finally panicked.
Their composure before was entirely due to the existence of this grand formation.
This great formation could even withstand a Nascent Spirit Transformation stage expert, and now, cracks are appearing on it!
The cultivators in the market were filled with panic and began to rush towards the market's exit.
If the great formation breaks, the market will be destroyed.
Although no one knew who was fighting in the sky, even the market town of Qingling Mountain was cracked by the attack.
This is definitely the work of Spirit Transformation stage expert.
The cracks in the great formation were naturally discovered by Fairy Qing and the others.
"Quickly, infuse the great formation with spiritual power!" Fairy Qing hurriedly said.
Upon hearing this, everyone began to channel their spiritual energy into the great formation.
Fortunately, the array formation in Qingling Mountain Market is of a very high level.
After everyone's spiritual energy was injected, the cracks that had started to spread began to heal automatically.
At that moment, the terrifying energy fluctuations coming from the sky disappeared.
Above Qingling Mountain Market, only a void of annihilation remained.
Beside that void stood an old man dressed in a bright red robe.
The old man gazed at the distant horizon, his face filled with astonishment.
He didn't hold back in that attack.
But the other party accepted it and even took the opportunity to escape.
If he hadn't scanned the other party with his Divine Sense beforehand and confirmed that the other party was just a Nascent Soul Cultivator, he would have suspected that the person just now was a cultivator of the same level who had concealed his cultivation.
At this moment, Fairy Qing and the others also flew out from within the great formation, and everyone bowed to the old man:
"Greetings, Senior Xue Mingzi!"
Xue Mingzi, one of the five Nascent Spirit Transformation of the Blood River Sect!
His cultivation had reached the mid-stage of the Nascent Spirit Transformation, and his Blood Dao Cultivation Method was particularly famous throughout the entire Xuanxiao Star.
Xue Mingzi looked at Qing Xianzi and the others and asked:
Do you know who that person was?
Fairy Qing shook her head. "We came here because we sensed the fluctuations of the formation. At the time, we only saw this person kill Fellow Daoist Xiao, but we don't know much else."
"You all go and investigate this matter!"
After saying that, Xue Mingzi chased after Chen Feng in the direction he had left.
The fact that Chen Feng could block his full-force attack made Xue Mingzi extremely curious about him.
Watching Xue Mingzi's departing figure, Qing Xianzi and the others also became solemn.
They had clearly witnessed the exchange just now.
The fact that a Nascent Soul Cultivator could break through Xue Mingzi's crimson hand is enough to shake the entire Xuanxiao Star if word gets out.
A cultivator nearby spoke up:
"That person must be a direct descendant of the Void Refining Old Monster, otherwise how could he possess such formidable strength?"
Fairy Qing shook her head and smiled, "The direct descendants of Old Monster Lianxu? You overestimate them. I'm afraid such people are not from our Xuanxiao Star."
The later a cultivator reaches in their cultivation journey, the more difficult it becomes for them to engage in cross-realm battles.
Some geniuses can fight across a major realm during the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages.
However, it is almost impossible at the Nascent Soul Spirit Transformation to Deity level.
Because for cultivators at this level, each breakthrough brings about a qualitative change in their strength.
Even within a single realm, the difference is enormous.
That's why Fairy Qing concluded that the Nascent Soul Cultivator was probably not from their Xuanxiao Star.
If their Xuanxiao Star had such a genius, it would have shaken the entire cultivation planet long ago.
"Let's go, let's investigate this person's background first. They wouldn't target the Blood River Sect for no reason; there must be a reason."
The group immediately returned to the market.
The battle just now caused chaos in the market, and they need to go back to take charge.
Qinglingshan Market, at the easternmost point.
Xu Heng and Ye Yuting stood on the second floor of the Yuting Chamber of Commerce.
They witnessed the entire battle just now.
They were quite nervous when they first saw Chen Feng appear.
The sudden appearance of the Spirit Transformation monster made the two even more anxious.
If anything happens to Chen Feng, then their chamber of commerce will have been established for nothing.
Fortunately, Chen Feng managed to escape successfully and was not captured by the Spirit Transformation monster.
"Senior brother, I never expected that in such a short time, Fellow Daoist Tuo would already be able to fight against Spirit Transformation stage monster!"
Ye Yuting said with emotion.
Back in the Void Realm, Chen Feng's ability to single-handedly defeat those geniuses had already deeply impressed her.
And now, only a short time has passed, Chen Feng has not only reached the Nascent Soul Great Perfection, but is also able to fight against Spirit Transformation elder.
"I'm also very surprised. Fellow Daoist Tuo is probably about to reach the Spirit Transformation stage. Once he steps into the Spirit Transformation, I'm afraid no one among the younger generation in the entire Weiyang Star Region will be his match."
Xu Heng's face showed envy.
He was also at the Nascent Soul Realm, but if he were to face that crimson hand, he would probably be instantly annihilated.
At this moment, Xu Heng seemed to have thought of something, and then looked at Ye Yuting and asked:
"Your identity hasn't been exposed, has it?"
Ye Yuting shook her head. "Fellow Daoist Tuo's appearance changed just now. As long as that old monster Xiao is dead, no one will know that Fellow Daoist Tuo and I went to the Blood River Merchant Guild."
Xu Heng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and then immediately gave some instructions:
"Just to be on the safe side, you should stay indoors at the Chamber of Commerce for the time being."
Ye Yuting nodded and said nothing more, instead looking at the noisy crowd on the market street.
The entire market is now abuzz with talk of the battle that just took place.
Xu Heng said with a wry smile, "Fellow Daoist Tuo really does cause an earthquake wherever he goes."
Ye Yuting spoke coldly:
"Fellow Daoist Tuo did nothing wrong in this matter. It was that old monster Xiao who had designs on him; they brought it on themselves."
Ye Yuting then asked, "By the way, Senior Brother, have you sent those guns out yet?"
Xu Heng nodded:
"Yes, a batch has already been sent out, more than five hundred in total. Hopefully, they'll actually be useful."
Ye Yuting said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Tuo's method will definitely work. We just need to wait."
Xu Heng looked at Ye Yuting in surprise:
"Junior sister, you seem to admire Fellow Daoist Tuo quite a bit. Could it be that..."
Ye Yuting's face immediately turned red, and she glared at Xu Heng:
"Senior brother, what nonsense are you talking about? I have no such feelings for Fellow Daoist Tuo."
Xu Heng burst into laughter. "Senior brother understands, senior brother was just asking."
Canglan Star, Northern Border, Xingfeng Sect.
Chen Feng's figure appeared on the teleportation array.
Upon seeing the familiar surroundings, Chen Feng's solemn expression finally disappeared.
Previously, when faced with the attack of the Spirit Transformation monster, he did not hesitate to use the Divine Ability "Heavenly Star Annihilation Finger".
Using this Divine Ability, he successfully broke through the seal of the surrounding space.
He then used teleportation multiple times to reach the location of the inter-star teleportation array.
Just to be on the safe side, Chen Feng even took a long detour.
After all, the old Spirit Transformation's Divine Sense lock-on was very strong.
This time, Chen Feng used up more than forty teleportations.
This was also to avoid being caught by that old monster. He wasn't arrogant enough to go and fight a Spirit Transformation monster to the death.
Moreover, Qingling Mountain has more than one Spirit Transformation; the three factions combined probably have more than a dozen Spirit Transformation elders.
"It seems that my previous guess was correct. The power Divine Ability the 'Celestial Annihilation Finger' is indeed enough to block Spirit Transformation monster. However, this move consumes too much stellar energy."
Chen Feng sensed the stellar energy within his body.
Now, he has less than 20% of the stellar energy left in his body.
This means that he can only use this Divine Ability once in a short period of time.
Just then, Liu Qian's voice rang out from the side:
"Sect Master, how is it?"
Liu Qian had been waiting at the inter-star teleportation array.
After all, Chen Feng was heading to another cultivation star this time, and he was worried that Chen Feng might encounter danger on this trip.
Chen Feng nodded and said, "It went smoothly enough; the weapons have been handed over to them."
Upon hearing this, Liu Qian's face lit up with joy; "That's good, we'll have another trade channel now."
"I need to go into seclusion for a while, and I won't be able to come out for about a month."
Chen Feng spoke to Liu Qian, explaining his plan to return to the modern world.
He had to deliver the spatial materials he had just acquired.
At the same time, it's also important to restore one's own stellar energy.
"Yes, Sect Master. We have moved the satellites and space-based weapons to the Western Regions, and they are now within the satellite's coverage area."
Liu Qian reported.
"Okay, inform Zheng Jiao that I'm in seclusion, and that we'll discuss the trip to the Western Regions in a month."
After Chen Feng finished speaking, his figure disappeared from the spot.
After seeing Chen Feng disappear, Liu Qian immediately took out his phone and began contacting Zheng Jiao.
After the call connected, Liu Qian explained that Chen Feng was going into seclusion.
The cunning man on the other end of the phone immediately became dissatisfied:
"I've already made all the preparations, why is he going into seclusion again?"
Zhengjiao couldn't wait to go to the Western Regions; he really wanted to merge with the main soul.
Once he merges with the main soul, even Chen Feng will have to treat him with respect.
"How could I possibly know about the sect leader's affairs? If you want to know the reason, senior, you can ask him yourself," Liu Qian said with a smile.
"Understood." Zheng Jiao naturally didn't dare to ask Chen Feng any further questions, and he immediately hung up the phone.
Looking at the phone that had just been hung up, Liu Qian smiled helplessly.
The modern world.
Chen Feng has returned to the lunar base.
He glanced around, then looked surprised.
The lunar base has now expanded considerably, with many new modular buildings added around it.
Moreover, the number of people inside the base has increased several times over.
"The development is quite rapid." Chen Feng then prepared to go find Tuo Sen.
But just then, a figure suddenly fell from the sky.
Looking at the person landing from the sky, Chen Feng showed a look of surprise. "Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment?"
This person was none other than Lin Wei.
Chen Feng could tell from her aura that Lin Wei was already a cultivator at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment, only one step away from forming her Core.
This speed of cultivation truly shocked even Chen Feng.
It's important to know that there's a tenfold time difference between the modern world and the Painting Scroll World.
He spent several months in the Painting Scroll World, while less than half a month might have passed in the modern world.
Lin Wei did not respond to Chen Feng's surprise, but said with a serious expression:
"You're finally back."
Lin Wei has now reached the Foundation Establishment stage, and her spiritual sense can now cover the entire lunar base.
So she noticed Chen Feng immediately when he appeared.
Seeing Lin Wei's solemn expression, Chen Feng felt a chill run down his spine, and then asked:
"Has that crack changed?"
Lin Wei rarely showed such a solemn expression; the only thing that could make her look like this was a change in the crack.
"It's more serious than that; look at the news."
Lin Wei didn't answer Chen Feng directly, but instead took out her phone.
Chen Feng took the phone; the screen displayed Weibo's trending topics.
The top three trending topics were particularly eye-catching.
#Mysterious spatial rift discovered in Cherry Blossom Country!#
#Experts: Cracks Could Trigger a Chain Reaction#
#The people of Cherry Blossom Country believe the cracks represent the awakening of the gods and are a symbol of the rise of Cherry Blossom Country!#
These trending topics also included photos taken by the media.
The photo clearly shows a crack the size of a thumb.
Around the crack, many experts were using various instruments to conduct tests.
In addition, there are troops stationed in the surrounding area.
Lin Wei said, "This just happened yesterday."
Lin Wei's expression was very solemn; there was nothing unusual about the spatial rift within the solar system.
But new cracks have appeared on Earth.
This is far more serious than the widening of the cracks in the solar system.
Chen Feng handed the phone back to Lin Wei and said, "Go take a look."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wei immediately said:
"Just go straight there? There are Cherry Blossom Country troops stationed there now, and the Eagle Sauce Country also has some troops stationed there. They probably won't allow us to get close."
Chen Feng said coldly, "If you disagree, then just destroy the country!"
Hearing Chen Feng utter the words "destroy the country" in such a cold tone, Lin Wei was completely stunned.
Only then did she realize that her perception had been flawed.
I was actually using modern, civilized ways of thinking to view Chen Feng.
Who is Chen Feng? He's a Nascent Soul level cultivator. Does he need to be wary of countries on Earth?
Others might say that destroying a country is impossible, but with Chen Feng's current strength, if he were to act without restraint, which country on Earth could stand against him?
The reason she hadn't thought of this was because Chen Feng had been very easygoing throughout.
This made her subconsciously believe that Chen Feng was still the same as before, just an ordinary human being.
