Red Clouds over the Solar System

Old Yin said with a stern face:

"Do you think activating the Star-Protecting Array will be enough to eliminate these two? If I'm not mistaken, that man should be a Spirit Commander of the Void Spirit Clan. Spirit Commanders hold extremely high positions within the Void Spirit Clan, and his strength is certainly among the top tier of Nascent Spirit Transformation."

"We can't kill this person with formations alone, and if we make a move now, the enemy might immediately launch a massive attack on Canglan Star by the Void Spirit Clan army."

Elder Yin's words calmed Leng Cangqiong down.

"Old Yin is right, I acted impulsively."

Elder Yin waved his hand. "Now is not the time to dwell on these things. We need to quickly notify the major forces within the star to prepare, and also contact the Star Palace. Without their support, we cannot possibly defeat the Void Spirit Clan."

Leng Cangqiong's expression changed. "Is the Void Spirit Clan really that powerful?"

Elder Yin's expression was solemn. "They're more than just powerful; they're an entire race. Back then, the Star Palace paid a heavy price to repel the Void Spirit Clan. This time, they've returned with a vengeance, and they're probably even stronger than before."

Elder Yin was quite worried, as Canglan Star was just a small star.

Without even a single Void Refinement expert, their chances of victory against a powerful opponent like the Void Spirit Clan are practically zero.

But it's absolutely impossible for them to surrender Canglan Star.

Once they surrender, the people of Canglan Star will become slaves of the Void Spirit Clan, and all their resources will be seized by the Void Spirit Clan.

The two did not linger there and immediately returned to the Cultivation Alliance.

After Elder Yin and Elder Yin returned to the Cultivation Alliance, they immediately informed others of the Void Spirit Clan's invasion.

Extraterrestrial cultivators have invaded!

The news spread throughout the entire planet Canglan at an extremely fast pace.

No one expected that the invasion of extraterrestrial cultivators would come so quickly.

Many people previously believed that the next invasion by extraterrestrial cultivators would occur hundreds of years later.

After all, not much time has passed since the last invasion by extraterrestrial cultivators.

Although many forces had been preparing for war, many were gripped by fear after receiving news of the invasion by cultivators from beyond the realm.

Especially those who had fought against cultivators from beyond the realm back then.

They were all well aware of the power of cultivators from beyond the realm.

They were a pack of homeless mad dogs, fighting tooth and nail to carve out a territory suitable for survival.

Moreover, this time the situation is different from before.

Canglan Star is no longer within the protection range of the Star Domain Array, and it will definitely become the primary target for invasion by cultivators from outside the domain.

This would be a disaster for Canglan Star.

The major powers immediately began to gather manpower and distribute talismans and Law Treasure to their disciples.

Everything that could be taken out was revealed from the treasure vault.

Besides the news of the invasion by extraterrestrial cultivators, another piece of news was also spreading throughout Canglan Star.

That was a golden rain of spirits falling in the northern border of the outer sea.

This golden spiritual rain is even purer than the spiritual rain formed after Spirit Transformation cultivator falls.

If a cultivator cultivates within the Spirit Realm, they can rapidly increase their strength in a short period of time, and may even be able to change their physique.

This news shocked all the major powers.

Such fortuitous opportunity was naturally not to be missed by many, and many cultivators began to rush to the Northern Territory.

Many people believe that Canglan Star sensed the invasion of extraterrestrial cultivators, which is why it sent down this spiritual rain to help the cultivators of Canglan Star improve their strength.

Many forces also used this as a reason to begin heading to the open sea.

However, these people were stopped by the cultivators of the Xingfeng Sect as soon as they arrived at the entrance to the Stormy Sea.

A conflict ensued between the two sides.

In the past, people might have been wary of the Xingfeng Sect's strength, but now that extraterrestrial cultivators have invaded, everyone is eager to improve their strength, and they naturally don't want to give up this opportunity.

This incident also led to several major battles at the entrance to the stormy sea area in the open ocean.

As various changes occurred on Canglan Star.

Chen Feng, however, appeared in the solar system of the modern world.

He floated silently alone in a part of the starry sky of the solar system.

Above his head, a crimson cloud of calamity was gathering.

After ten years of cultivation, Chen Feng successfully brought his nascent Nascent Soul to the level required for a breakthrough.

The Primordial Spirit has already formed within the Nascent Soul.

But just as his Primordial Spirit appeared, the tribulation of lightning also descended.

The purpose of the Spirit Transformation Tribulation is to temper the Primordial Spirit within the Nascent Soul, and then, through the process of transforming the nascent soul, inject all the energy of the Nascent Soul into the Primordial Spirit.

Only in this way can a cultivator truly be considered to have advanced to the Spirit Transformation.

The first step is the tribulation of lightning; the second step is the tribulation of inner demons.

Once you've passed the first step and your nascent Nascent Soul is still inside you, you're already considered a half-step Spirit Transformation cultivator.

Saintess Caixia and others were the first to survive the tribulation of lightning.

Many Nascent Spirit Transformation on Canglan Star did not undergo tribulation; they were merely half-step Spirit Transformation who had overcome the tribulation of inner demons.

The former is stronger than the latter.

Chen Feng's plan was to go to the Heavenly Illusion Pool to temper his State of Mind after surviving the tribulation of lightning, and complete the final step of his inner demon tribulation.

But when his tribulation of lightning appeared, he discovered that this tribulation was completely different from the ones he had experienced before.

His mere appearance gave him a sense of impending life-or-death crisis.

Therefore, Chen Feng did not hesitate to return to the modern world to undergo his tribulation.

As he expected, after returning to the modern world...

The lightning tribulation indeed weakened, with only a red cloud gathering above his head.

However, the time it took for this lightning tribulation to gather was unusually slow.

He had been standing here for a full three hours, and the tribulation lightning still hadn't formed.

"Could it be that the solar system lacks vital energy, which is why the process of condensing the Spirit Transformation Tribulation is so slow?"

Chen Feng couldn't help but have some guesses.

The solar system itself is a barren galaxy, and the Spirit Transformation Tribulation requires the condensation of primordial energy.

The solar system has very little Spiritual Qi, let alone vital energy.

"We can only wait patiently." Chen Feng then sat cross-legged in the starry sky.

Such a bizarre thing could probably only have happened to him.

When a cultivator undergoes tribulation, they probably don't actively wait for the lightning tribulation to form.

Although he didn't know how long he would have to wait, Chen Feng knew it was impossible for him to return to the Painting Scroll World to undergo his tribulation.

The risk of undergoing tribulation in the Painting Scroll World is far too great, after all, he cultivates the Star Body Refining Cultivation Method, which itself amplifies the lightning tribulation.

Feeling a bit bored while waiting, Chen Feng took out his phone and called Lin Wei.

A moment later, the call was answered, and Lin Wei's surprised voice came through:

"Have you finished your cultivation?"

Lin Wei was quite surprised to receive a call from Chen Feng.

Because a year had passed since their last meeting, and Chen Feng had not contacted her during that time.

Chen Feng replied, "Not yet, I'm undergoing tribulation right now."

"Transcending tribulation?" Lin Wei on the other end of the phone was stunned.

She's already a cultivator, so naturally she knows what tribulation is, but would she have time to make phone calls while undergoing tribulation?

"Um, you're not kidding?" Lin Wei asked cautiously.

Chen Feng said, "The lightning tribulation takes a bit too long to condense, so it probably won't be able to condense today. I was just bored, so I gave you a call."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wei was momentarily speechless.

Chen Feng continued:

"Have you broken through to the Golden Core stage? How is the spatial rift?"

Lin Wei immediately replied:

"I broke through long ago. I'm now in the early stage of the Golden Core realm. Both of those spatial rifts have grown to varying degrees this year. The rift in space is about twice as big as it used to be, while the one on Earth is more serious, already half a meter long, and it's about to form a vortex."

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng frowned:

"Aside from these, have there been any other changes to the cracks?"

Chen Feng speculated that the spatial rifts on Earth were actually star vortexes, which changed rapidly because they were formed naturally in the universe.

Space rifts in outer space are man-made, so they take longer to form.

"Nothing has changed. The Eagle Sauce Country are still guarding Mount Fuji. They've sent an additional heavy brigade to garrison it, and I've also sent Xiao Ning and the others to keep an eye on things there," Lin Wei replied.

"Xiao Ning?" Chen Feng asked in surprise.

Lin Wei said with a smile:

"You don't know yet, do you? Xiao Ning and Yang Fuqiang have already become Foundation Establishment cultivators, and the rest of them have reached at least the mid-stage of Qi Refining. I thought it would be too boring for them to stay in the villa and cultivate every day, so I sent them to guard Mount Fuji."

"Oh, by the way, I also healed Xiao Ning's leg. You don't mind, do you?"

Chen Feng replied, "I said before that I would heal her legs after she reaches Foundation Establishment, so it's the same if you heal them for her."

Chen Feng wasn't surprised that Xiao Ning and the others could break through to the Foundation Establishment.

With an unlimited supply of Cultivation Resources, even someone with poor aptitude can make rapid progress in their cultivation.

"What about research? Has there been any progress this year?" Chen Feng inquired about other matters.

Lin Wei's voice came quickly:

"The space materials you brought last time were very useful. Harvey has developed a new antimatter weapon and is currently trying to research an antimatter engine. You can come and take a look when you finish your cultivation."

"As for consciousness transplantation technology, the first batch of human trials has been completed, and there has been significant progress."

"There is also research on cultivation robots and space fighters."

Lin Wei began to report some of her research findings to Chen Feng.

Overall, this year saw significant breakthroughs in various research areas, particularly in the accelerated development of planetary defense.

"If you have time, you can send over some resources. We've almost used up the ones you brought over before," Lin Wei said.

Chen Feng looked up at the tribulation clouds gathering in the sky and then said:

"I have it on me. You wait for me outside the moon, and I'll deliver it there."

According to his estimation, the lightning tribulation wouldn't descend anytime soon.

Sending Lin Wei some resources now that we have some free time shouldn't be a problem.

"Okay, I'll set off now!" Lin Wei replied immediately.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Feng transformed into a streak of light and headed towards the moon.

As Chen Feng moved, the red clouds in the sky moved along with him.

The red cloud at this moment is about three kilometers in diameter.

A cultivator undergoing tribulation will be followed by lightning wherever he goes.

In space beyond the moon, a space carrier is hovering.

Lin Wei was waiting quietly on the deck of the mothership.

Upon receiving Chen Feng's message, he immediately piloted his space carrier to wait outside the moon.

Before long, a large patch of red clouds moved in from afar.

The red cloud was moving extremely fast. If Lin Wei hadn't already become a Golden Core cultivator and her spiritual sense hadn't been greatly enhanced, she probably wouldn't have been able to detect it at all.

Lin Wei looked surprised. "This is..."

Before Lin Wei could react, the red cloud had already appeared above her head.

In an instant, Lin Wei's face turned pale at a visible speed, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

At that moment, she felt as if an invisible force was pressing down on her.

This power made her feel very small, and a strong sense of fear rose from the depths of her heart.

Just as her heart was about to be completely consumed by fear.

A gentle voice rang out from nearby. "Don't be afraid!"

As the sound faded, Lin Wei immediately felt the invisible force pressing down on him disappear.

Her fear dissipated as a result.

Lin Wei looked up and saw Chen Feng, with silver hair, standing not far away.

Lin Wei asked in shock:

"Is this crimson cloud the tribulation lightning of the Spirit Transformation?"

Chen Feng shook his head. "Not yet, because the tribulation lightning hasn't formed."

Hearing this, Lin Wei's shock deepened.

Even before the tribulation lightning had fully materialized, he felt a sense of despair.

This thought made her worry: How terrifying would it be if this lightning tribulation were to materialize?

Can you get through this?

Chen Feng smiled; "Don't worry, I'm confident."

After Chen Feng finished speaking, he immediately tossed out several storage rings:

"These resources are enough for a long time. My cultivation is not yet finished; it will probably take some more time."

Lin Wei took the storage ring and nodded:

"Yes, don't worry about your cultivation. I'll be here, nothing will happen."

Chen Feng nodded. "Then I'll be going now."

Chen Feng was about to turn and leave when Lin Wei suddenly called out to him, "Wait a minute, I have something to give you."

After saying that, Lin Wei tossed a storage ring to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng took the storage ring and glanced at it.

There were three crystals inside, two of which were blue and the third was purple.

These three crystals are only the size of coins, with incredibly smooth surfaces, but each crystal contains a shimmering energy within.

Lin Wei's voice came at this moment:

"Those two blue crystals were crafted from Void Crystal Tunnel and Space Stone, each containing about three grams of antimatter. As for the last purple crystal, it was refined from Void Sand, containing as much as five grams of antimatter."

"I named this weapon 'Return to Nothingness Stone.' The annihilation of antimatter is somewhat similar to the term 'return to nothingness' in the cultivation world, so I chose this name."

"This item is very useful to me!" Chen Feng put away the storage ring, a look of joy on his face.

He didn't care about the name at all; these three crystals would become his new trump card.

Chen Feng knew better than anyone how powerful antimatter weapons were.

At that time, they defeated the demon god with just one gram of antimatter ring.

Although other treasures were used in this process, the power of the antimatter weapon has been proven.

This Ruins Stone is clearly stronger than the previous antimatter ring.

According to his estimation, if used properly, killing a Spirit Transformation in an instant would not be a problem.

Lin Wei said with a smile:

"It's good that it's useful to you. It's a pity we don't have enough space materials. We still need to research antimatter engines, otherwise we could have made more."

Chen Feng said, "We'll wait until later. I'll find a way to get more space materials."

Space materials are not found on Canglan Star, but other major stars do have them.

Interstellar trade has long been established, and as long as you have enough Spirit Stone, it's not difficult to buy spatial materials.
