The Nascent Soul-Emergence Realm

Inside Sunset Valley.

The space carrier is sailing.

Since the last great battle, Sunset Valley has completely changed its appearance, and all that can be seen around is various kinds of rubble.

The demonic energy that once filled Sunset Valley has completely disappeared, leaving it in utter ruins.

Zhengjiao looked around at the surroundings and said with emotion:

"We were really lucky to have escaped back then."

Zheng Jiao had not forgotten the danger he had faced in Luoxia Valley, where he had almost been killed by that Devil Cultivator.

Just then, the space carrier suddenly stopped.

Both Zheng Jiao and Chen Feng were looking ahead.

Not far ahead, countless spatial rifts appeared.

These spatial rifts were not repaired by the Principle of space.

Generally speaking, after space is broken, the spatial Principle of heaven and earth will automatically repair these broken spaces.

However, there is one exception.

That is, the power was so great that it directly erased an entire area of space.

In this situation, even the Principle of space cannot repair it in a short time.

Such spatial rifts take a very long time to repair.

Some take only a few years, while others take decades.

This is why, in some cultivation planets, powerful cultivators are restricted from taking action.

Because their full-force attack would cause irreversible damage to the cultivation star.

"Fellow Daoist, these are all spatial rifts. Do we want to go through them?" Zhengjiao asked.

"No need." Chen Feng then looked towards the depths of Luoxia Valley and said, "This junior has something to ask Alliance Leader Lu!"

With Lu Linyuan's Divine Sense, he should have sensed it when he arrived at Luoxia Valley.

Not long after Chen Feng spoke.

A golden Primordial Spirit appeared before him.

This Primordial Spirit was none other than Youluan.

"Greetings, Senior Youluan," Chen Feng said.

Youluan glanced at Chen Feng: "Come with me."

After speaking, Youluan's Primordial Spirit emitted a golden light, enveloping Chen Feng within it.

Seeing this, Zheng Jiao immediately exclaimed, "I want to go too! I want to go too!"

But Youluan completely ignored Zhengjiao's words, and the golden light carried Chen Feng towards the depths of Luoxia Valley.

The golden light transformed into a golden thread, constantly weaving through the spatial rift.

Watching the golden line disappear into the distance, the cunning beast revealed a look of resentment:

"This woman is so disrespectful! Does she think I'm not even qualified to go over there?"

Zhengjiao felt that he was being looked down upon.

At the same time, he made up his mind.

After he merges with the main soul, he must come and find this woman and show her how powerful he is.

After weaving through Sunset Valley for a few breaths, the golden thread landed on an open space.

This place is located deep within Sunset Valley, and it is very dark all around.

Three people are sitting cross-legged here.

The golden thread fell in front of the three people, revealing the figures of Chen Feng and You Luan.

After Youluan's Primordial Spirit appeared, it flew into its own body.

Lu Linyuan's voice rang out in the room. "Young friend, it's been a long time."

Chen Feng looked at the three people sitting cross-legged. You Luan and Nangong Wentian were no different from before, except that their auras were weaker than before.

Lu Linyuan, who was standing between the two, had completely changed his appearance at this moment.

One of his eyes is black, and the other is gold.

On his body, Spiritual Qi and demonic energy were intertwined.

Just looking at the other person made Chen Feng feel a sense of dread.

Although he had already heard from Youluan about Lu Linyuan imprisoning Devil Cultivator.

But seeing it with his own eyes still surprised him somewhat.

"Senior, are you alright in this condition?" Chen Feng asked.

That Devil Cultivator Devil Cultivator was already very strong; if he were to take over Lu Linyuan's body, his strength would likely be even greater.

Lu Linyuan said with a smile:

"Don't worry, that Devil Cultivator has been imprisoned by me. My current state is only because he's been constantly corrupting me with demonic energy. I'll be fine for the next hundred years."

Lu Linyuan's smile felt very strange to Chen Feng.

However, Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that there would be no problems within the next hundred years.

If this Devil Cultivator escapes again, he will have no choice but to lead the Xingfeng Sect members to flee Canglan Star.

"Young friend, I've heard about your recent exploits. I never imagined you could single-handedly kill six demon lords. Judging from your aura, you should be close to advancing to the Nascent Spirit Transformation, right?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Wentian and You Luan both turned their gazes toward Chen Feng.

Ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator are simply not worth their attention.

But Chen Feng is different. Not only is his cultivation speed terrifyingly fast, but his combat strength is also quite high.

Several people had previously predicted that Chen Feng would definitely be able to advance to the Spirit Transformation.

Chen Feng said, "Senior is too kind. I am only at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection the Nascent Spirit Transformation. I will only consider advancing to the Spirit Transformation Spirit Transformation."

Upon hearing this, Lu Linyuan shook his head:

"Young friend, the realm of half-step Spirit Transformation isn't really a realm at all; you don't need to reach that Spirit Transformation."

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng immediately cupped his hands in greeting. "Please enlighten me, senior."

Since entering the world of cultivation, Chen Feng has always been exploring on his own. Although Zheng Jiao has given him a lot of guidance, Zheng Jiao is ultimately just Demon Beast.

But Lu Linyuan is different; he is currently the strongest person on Canglan Star.

Chen Feng also wanted to learn something from the other party.

Lu Linyuan said unhurriedly:

"Half-step Spirit Transformation is a realm that some cultivators who want to break through to the Spirit Transformation stage reach due to certain limitations. For example, some cultivators trigger a Heavenly Tribulation when the spiritual power in their Nascent Soul reaches its limit."

"They use the Spirit Transformation Tribulation to temper their Nascent Soul and transform them into primordial Primordial Spirit, but due to insufficient State of Mind or resources, this process is halted, which is why they are called half-step Spirit Transformation."

"There are also distinctions among those who are half-step into the Spirit Transformation. The first type is those who lack State of Mind fortitude. These cultivators are often the prodigies of various major stars. It's not that they are incapable of achieving the Spirit Transformation, but rather that they want to strengthen their foundation before advancing."

"Another reason is that they lack resources and their own talent, which forces them to choose to undergo the Spirit Transformation Tribulation."

"The former has the ability to break through but doesn't want to for the time being, while the latter is unable to break through, so the difference in strength between the two is quite large."

Upon hearing Lu Linyuan's explanation, Chen Feng immediately thought of Saintess Caixia and the others.

Those geniuses should be the former; they are capable of breaking through to the Spirit Transformation.

However, due to insufficient State of Mind or lack of personal accumulation, he does not intend to achieve the Spirit Transformation for the time being.

The half-step Nascent Spirit Transformation he encountered on Canglan Star belonged to the latter category.

No wonder, given that they are both at the half-step Spirit Transformation, the difference in their strength is so great.

Lu Linyuan's voice rang out again in the arena:

"Actually, in High Antiquity times, there was no such thing as 'half-step Spirit Transformation.' At that time, cultivators only needed to reach the Nascent Soul Great Perfection and then sense the primordial energy of the universe to directly Spirit Transformation."

"Cosmic energy?" Chen Feng looked puzzled.

Nangong Wentian, standing to the side, looked at Chen Feng and asked, "You don't know about Yuan Qi?"

Chen Feng shook his head. "I have always cultivated on my own and have no master, so I have never heard of Yuan Qi."

Upon hearing this, both Nangong Wentian and You Luan showed surprise.

Their surprise stemmed from the fact that Chen Feng had a powerful figure behind him, yet Chen Feng was now claiming he had no mentor.

However, their expressions quickly returned to normal.

Because they considered another possibility: that Chen Feng was being raised without supervision.

Some powerful beings choose to let their offspring roam freely when raising them.

Because free-range animals grow up quickly.

Lu Linyuan smiled and said, "Even if I didn't tell you, you would be able to sense it when you break through to the Spirit Transformation stage."

"Every cultivator possesses a certain amount of vital energy, which is derived from their Xiantian essence. Once a cultivator's vital energy is severely damaged, it will take a very long time to recover, as you should know."

"Cultivators possess vital energy, and the universe and cultivation planets naturally also possess vital energy. Cultivators who have reached the Nascent Spirit Transformation stage cultivate vital energy; while Spiritual Qi is still needed, it is no longer essential."

"Because primordial energy allows cultivators to comprehend the Principle of heaven and earth."

"You should have noticed as well that when Spirit Transformation cultivators use the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to fight, their power far surpasses that of Nascent Soul Cultivator and those at the half-step Spirit Transformation, simply because they mobilize some of their own spiritual energy."

"And some great Divine Ability become even more powerful when they are enhanced by vital energy."

Youluan, who was standing nearby, then added:

"The reason why Spirit Transformation cultivators can move freely in the starry sky without fear of violent Spiritual Qi is because of the existence of Yuan Qi. Yuan Qi can directly cleanse such violent Spiritual Qi, allowing Spirit Transformation cultivators to absorb it."

"Also, Spirit Transformation cultivator's Primordial Spirit is related to vital energy; you'll understand this when you break through to the Spirit Transformation."

After hearing their introductions, Chen Feng understood many things he hadn't understood before.

He had witnessed the power of Spirit Transformation cultivators many times. Although they used the same amount of spiritual energy, the Spirit Transformation cultivators' attacks were far stronger than those of Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Chen Feng also sensed another kind of power within it, which was clearly primordial energy.

Chen Feng then said:

"A person needs time to recover from excessive damage to their vital energy. What if the vital energy of a cultivation star or a star field is severely damaged?"

Upon hearing Chen Feng ask this question, Nangong Wentian coldly replied:

"What else can we do? Annihilation, of course. We cultivators are essentially seizing the creation of heaven and earth, which is why tribulations of lightning descend upon us."

"All we can do is, after our fall, return all our Spiritual Qi and vital energy to the heavens and earth as a form of compensation."

Chen Feng nodded. "Thank you all for your clarification, seniors. I understand now."

Lu Linyuan then asked, "You came to see me not to inquire about this matter, right?"

Chen Feng said, "Yes, there is another matter I wanted to discuss with you this time, senior."

Chen Feng then recounted the appearance of a spatial rift on Earth.

He didn't specify the location of the spatial rift, but only its characteristics.

Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, Lu Linyuan and the others' expressions changed drastically.

Seeing the sudden look on their faces, Chen Feng's heart tightened.

"Senior, is there a problem?"

"Where did you see this crack?" Nangong Wentian stared intently at Chen Feng.

Chen Feng said, "This is something I dreamed about."

Chen Feng made up a reason because he really couldn't think of any other excuse, so he might as well say that he was dreaming.

Upon hearing Chen Feng's answer, Nangong Wentian immediately glared at Chen Feng:

"Kid, this is very important; it concerns the safety of our Canglan Star."

Seeing Nangong Wentian suddenly become so serious, Chen Feng immediately said:

"That spatial rift isn't on Canglan Star."

Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, the expressions on the faces of the others visibly improved.

"Senior, is this crack very dangerous?" Chen Feng asked impatiently.

Nangong Wentian then said:

"You probably haven't been to the extraterritorial battlefield, have you? The spatial rift you're talking about exists there. It's not really a spatial rift; it's a spatial node, but we prefer to call it a star vortex!"

"Simply put, this thing is like a teleportation array; it can teleport people over extremely long distances, even across several star systems."

"Otherwise, do you think those cultivators from beyond the realm can simply fly to our Weiyang Star Region? Even if the Void Refinement Elder wanted to fly from one star region to another, it would take him thousands of years."

"Was this thing man-made?" Chen Feng's expression turned serious.

He had found it strange before, since the solar system is incredibly far away from other star systems.

The star systems within the Painting Scroll World must be even more distant.

How did those low-level cultivators manage to cross star systems to invade?

It now appears that these people all arrived in the Weiyang Starfield through this cosmic vortex.

Lu Linyuan, standing beside him, shook his head and said:

"Starry vortexes are naturally formed in the universe. No one knows why these vortexes form. The cracks you mentioned are actually just the initial appearance of a starry vortex. As time goes by, its shape will gradually change, like this."

Lu Linyuan waved his right hand, and a scene appeared in front of Chen Feng.

The image shows a dark, spherical vortex, surrounded by a layer of light.

Upon seeing the vortex, Chen Feng was immediately stunned:

"A black hole? No, could this be a wormhole!"

The images Lu Linyuan provided were remarkably similar to images of black holes captured by Earth's astronomical telescopes.

But since black holes can absorb even light and devour everything around them, it's clearly not a black hole.

Therefore, it can only be a wormhole.

Wormholes currently only exist in theory.

Long ago, some scientists on Earth believed that wormholes could connect two different points in time.

But it has always been just speculation.

"Wormhole? Why do you use that term?" Lu Linyuan looked at Chen Feng with a puzzled expression.

Chen Feng shook his head. "It's nothing. I just thought this thing looked like an insect, so I called it a wormhole."

Upon hearing this, all three looked at the vortex in the image.

But after looking at it for a long time, the three of them still couldn't find any connection between this thing and insects.

Lu Linyuan said with a smile:

"Young friend, you are indeed different from others, actually able to associate this thing with insects. However, it is not impossible. Perhaps it is an insect itself, but our cultivation is not high enough to see its true form."

Lu Linyuan's words made the other two nod in agreement.

Clearly, they also felt that what Lu Linyuan said was indeed possible.

Although Spirit Transformation is a powerful being, it does not mean they are omniscient or omnipotent.

Seeing Lu Linyuan's serious explanation, Chen Feng was both amused and exasperated, and he quickly changed the subject:

"Senior, I have another question. What does it mean if a spatial rift suddenly appears in a star field where Spiritual Qi is reviving?"

Chen Feng then recounted the spatial rifts in the solar system.

That was a real spatial rift.

He hoped to get an answer from Lu Linyuan.
