Venerable Ice Soul

After hearing what Chen Feng had said, none of the others offered any further advice.

Lu Linyuan said, "I'll go with you!"

Chen Feng shook his head. "I can go alone. Canglan Star needs someone to guard it. Don't look at me like that. I'm not going to my death. Even if we're outmatched, I have a way to escape!"

Chen Feng wasn't lying. Even if he couldn't defeat a Void Refinement cultivator, he could easily escape if he wanted to.

Because he also possesses a Void Heaven Token.

Once he activates this thing, he can travel directly to the Void Realm.

Once he enters the Void Realm, he won't be afraid even if he's besieged by old monsters who have mastered the Void Refinement Realm.

He has many trump cards.

"Alright, enough chit-chat, I'm off."

After Chen Feng finished speaking, he transformed into a beam of light and headed towards the depths of the starry sky.

Watching Chen Feng disappear into the depths of the starry sky, Lu Linyuan bowed deeply.

The other Spirit Transformation also bowed to Chen Feng at the same time.

In their view, Chen Feng had taken an extremely dangerous trip.

If any one of them went, they would face certain death.

Lu Linyuan looked at the group of Nascent Spirit Transformation and said:

"Inform all factions on the planet about this. We want everyone to know that the reason we are able to live is because someone is bearing the burden for us!"

The other Spirit Transformation nodded, and at that moment they all felt respect for Chen Feng.

To single-handedly hold off a Void Refinement Realm expert for the sake of Canglan Star was a feat worthy of their admiration.

The Nascent Spirit Transformation present were all backed by top forces on Canglan Star. They personally relayed the message, and in less than half a day, all the major forces learned that Chen Feng was going to deal with the Void Refinement cultivators.

At this moment, everyone on the entire Canglan Star, from Qi Refining to Nascent Soul, felt gratitude and respect for Chen Feng.

In their hearts, Chen Feng had become the true guardian of Canglan Star.

At this moment, Chen Feng's reputation on Canglan Star reached an unprecedented height.

Chen Feng was unaware that his actions would once again cause a huge uproar across the entire Canglan Star.

He was speeding through the starry sky, looking completely relaxed.

Chen Feng was not worried about his safety during this confrontation with the Void Refinement Realm cultivator.

He actually wanted to take this opportunity to see just how strong a Void Refinement cultivator was.

The starry sky is incredibly vast, stretching as far as the eye can see.

Based on his memories, Chen Feng began heading towards the spatial rift closest to Canglan Star.

To access the extraterrestrial battlefield, one must traverse a spatial rift.

Just by flying, it's unclear how long it would take.

"This is the first time I've truly left Canglan Star and flown through the starry sky of this world."

Chen Feng could sense that the starry sky environment of the Painting Scroll World was completely different from the modern world.

In the modern world's starry sky, he could only sense some radiation and gravity.

However, the starry sky of the Painting Scroll World is filled with a large amount of violent Spiritual Qi.

These violent Spiritual Qi easily penetrated his body without him using stellar energy to protect himself.

If a cultivator below the Spirit Transformation were to have their body invaded by this violent Spiritual Qi, their physical body would soon shatter due to the chaos of their own spiritual power.

Only cultivators who have reached the Spirit Transformation can be immune to this violent Spiritual Qi.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Feng took out a communication mirror from his person and sent a message to Lan Yin.

The best way to find out the location of that Void Refinement cultivator is to ask the Void Spirit Clan.

Although Ge Yunxuan had previously said that the Void Refinement cultivator had slaughtered the Void Spirit Clan.

But Chen Feng didn't believe that the other party had really wiped out all the Void Spirit Clan members.

In particular, the Spirit Commanders of the Void Spirit Clan each possess Divine Ability to save their lives.

The reason he was able to kill the Spirit Commander of the Void Spirit Clan so easily was because of the scroll's teleportation.

If it weren't for the scroll's teleportation, Hei Ming and his group would have escaped long ago.

The message was sent, but the other party did not reply immediately.

But Chen Feng was not in a hurry; instead, he waited patiently.

If the distance between the two parties using the communication mirror is very far, it will take some time for them to establish contact.

Extraterritorial battlefields.

In a starry sky.

A Voidling spaceship is currently traveling at high speed.

The magic ship is in a stealth state, thanks to the concealment effect brought about by the unique formation on board.

This is one of the few high-level starships of the Void Spirit Clan, and its speed in space travel far exceeds that of ordinary Spirit Transformation cultivators.

In addition to the concealment array, the magic ship also contains a special attack array inscribed by the Void Spirit Clan priests.

This attack formation can only be activated with spirit stones, and its attacks are so powerful that even ordinary Spirit Transformation would find it difficult to withstand.

At this moment, on this Dharma ship, there are more than a dozen people sitting cross-legged, healing their injuries.

Almost all of these dozen or so people were injured, and some of them had even lost their bodies.

Hong Lu sat cross-legged at the very front of the crowd, with Kong Ling and Lan Yin beside him.

At this moment, half of Hong Lu's body was in a strange, frozen state.

Not only his body was frozen, but even half of his Primordial Spirit was frozen.

"I didn't expect the Weiyang Star Region to send a Void Refinement expert so quickly! It's clear that the Star Region's grand formation was just a hair's breadth away from being broken!"

Hong Lu's voice was extremely weak, but his tone revealed his unwillingness.

A month ago, after learning of the deaths of Elder Ding and others, he led all the Void Spirit Clan members to attack the army in the Weiyang Starfield.

After several days of fierce fighting, they successfully killed a Nascent Spirit Transformation from the Jiang Clan, forcing the army of the Weiyang Star Region to retreat.

After driving away the people from the Weiyang Starfield, they continued towards the Starfield Array to begin breaking it.

Then, just yesterday, a Void Refinement expert from the Weiyang Star Region suddenly appeared.

With just one Divine Ability, the opponent froze all of their dozen or so starships, and the cultivators below the Spirit Transformation were instantly frozen into ice sculptures.

Although Hong Lu used all his trump cards, they were of no use against the Void Refinement cultivator.

If it weren't for the fact that several Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivators from the Void Spirit Clan self-destructed at the last moment, buying them time, none of them would have been able to escape.

The thought of tens of thousands of his clansmen dying caused Hong Lu a sharp pain in his heart; they were all the elite of their Void Spirit Clan.

"If I'm not mistaken, this Void Refinement cultivator should be the Ice Soul Venerable of the Illusionary Clouds Immortal Sect. This woman also participated in the war against our Void Spirit Clan several hundred years ago."

A clear, ethereal voice came from the side. Her physical body had recovered, but her face was even paler than before.

"This old monster at the Void Refinement stage definitely isn't after us!" Lan Yin suddenly spoke up.

Of the group, he was the only one who wasn't seriously injured.

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at him.

Lan Yin said in a deep voice:

"If the Star Palace truly intended to send Void Refinement cultivators, they would have done so long ago. Why wait until now? Besides, at that time, we were still in a stalemate with the army of the Weiyang Star Region. They had no need to send Void Refinement elders."

"But less than a day after we defeated the army of the Weiyang Star Region, this Void Refinement cultivator suddenly appeared. Clearly, this person had already set off before we defeated the Weiyang Star Region army."

"If I'm not mistaken, this Ice Soul Venerable must have come to the outer battlefield for the sake of those Spirit Transformation who died in the Illusionary Cloud Immortal Sect."

Upon hearing this, the expressions on their faces all turned grim.

Lan Yin's guess was indeed reasonable.

Even in a star field war, cultivators at the Void Refinement stage would only act at crucial moments; they would never appear so early.

Each Void Refinement cultivator is a top-tier combatant in the star field; how could they possibly be mobilized casually?

In other words, the reason this Void Refining Old Monster came to the outer battlefield was to investigate the cause of death of those Nascent Soul Spirit Transformation from the Illusionary Clouds Immortal Sect.

Thinking of this, Hong Lu's face immediately filled with anger:

"That damned Chen Beijing!"

Hong Lu was just as happy as he was when Chen Feng killed the Nascent Spirit Transformation of the Illusionary Clouds Immortal Sect. Now he was just as furious.

"Now is not the time to discuss these things. That Ice Soul Venerable will not let us go easily. We are not safe right now."

Priest Jiang offered a reminder from the side.

Hong Lu looked at his body:

"I can sense a power within my Primordial Spirit; this is the Power of Principle. I can only barely suppress it now, but it won't be long before she can use this power to sense our location."

"I will leave the ship myself later and lure her away."

Priest Jiang said, "Commander Hong, you're going to lure that old monster away, so..."

Hong Lu calmly said, "It's better for me to die than for everyone to die. After I leave, you should all go to the nearby spatial rift and wait for the Void Refinement cultivators from the clan to arrive."

"The High Priest has sent word that she is leading everyone in the Priest's Hall to reinforce the spatial passage. The Void Refinement cultivators from the clan will arrive soon."

Hong Lu appeared quite calm about his impending death.

As someone who could serve as a commander of an army in the Void Spirit Clan, he was certainly not someone who feared death.

The people in the room fell silent; the atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.

At that moment, the communication mirror hanging around Lan Yin's neck suddenly started flashing.

Lan Yin took out his communication mirror and glanced at it, then his expression changed:

"It's a message from Chen Beijin!"

Hong Lu frowned:

Why did he message you?

Lan Yin said with a strange expression, "He asked me to tell him the location of that Void Refinement cultivator."

Upon hearing this, the group all looked puzzled.

Kong Ling said, "It seems Chen Beijing has already guessed that the Void Refinement cultivator is here to cause him trouble. Now that he's asking this, could it be that he's preparing to deal with that Void Refinement cultivator?"

Upon hearing this, the group couldn't help but find it unbelievable.

For a Spirit Transformation to actively confront a Void Refinement cultivator—isn't that just courting death?

"Has Chen Beijin gone mad? Does he think that just because he can kill enemies beyond his level while in the Spirit Transformation, he can defeat someone in the Void Refinement stage?"

Hong Lu felt that Chen Feng was very arrogant, and that the Spirit Transformation stage was just a big ant in front of the Void Refinement stage.

It's simply impossible to challenge someone of a higher level.

Even a Nascent Spirit Transformation has mastered some of the power of the Principle is still powerless against a Void Refinement cultivator.

They are the best example.

"How should we reply to him?" Lan Yin asked, looking at the others.

Kong Ling thought for a moment, then said, "Tell him that we don't know the location of this Void Refinement Realm cultivator yet, but we can help him lure it out!"

Lan Yin looked at Kong Ling with a serious expression:

"Are you planning to use Hong Lu as bait to lure the Void Refinement cultivators to Chen Beijing?"

"That's right. Regardless of whether Chen Beijin can handle a Void Refinement cultivator, he can definitely hold them off for a while."

Priest Jiang chimed in from the side:

"I think this plan is feasible."

Lan Yin turned his gaze to Hong Lu; it all depended on Hong Lu's decision.

Hong Lu thought for a moment, then said:

"Let's do as Kong Ling says. Let's turn around and find Chen Beijin."

Hong Lu also knew that, given their current situation, this was their only option.

Lan Yin nodded and then sent the message to Chen Feng.

Meanwhile, the Void Spirit Clan's magic ship changed direction and began heading towards Canglan Star.

It was countless miles away from the Void Spirit Clan's starship.

Here, a French ship also sails through the starry sky.

This starship is even larger than those of the Void Spirit Clan.

The Dharma ship was filled with cultivators from Ziwei Star and Huanxia Star.

Inside a loft at the highest point of the French ship.

Jiang Zhan, Saintess Caixia, and a group of Spirit Transformation cultivators stood respectfully on both sides.

The Holy Maiden of Rainbow Clouds was speaking to the woman at the head of the table, recounting the events of the past few days.

Seated at the head of the table was a woman dressed in a moon-white long dress.

The woman had an excellent figure; even when she was just sitting, she resembled a blooming plum blossom in the cold winter.

She had long, icy-crystal-colored hair, simply tied up with a white jade hairpin.

The woman's features were exquisite, but her eyes were as cold as a block of ice.

The people present didn't dare to look the woman in the eye.

Because just by making eye contact, they felt a chilling sensation in their very Primordial Spirit.

This woman is none other than Ice Soul Venerable, one of the three Void Refinement experts of the Illusionary Cloud Immortal Sect.

The name of the Ice Soul Venerable is renowned throughout the entire Weiyang Star Region.

The cultivators of the Illusionary Clouds Immortal Sect generally cultivate with seven-colored light, and the Principle mastered by high-level cultivators are mostly related to light.

However, the Ice Soul Venerable is a special existence.

She was born with an Ice Soul Spirit Body and has an extremely high talent for cultivating ice-type Divine Ability and Cultivation Method, which is completely contrary to the main cultivation Cultivation Method of the Illusionary Cloud Immortal Sect.

However, her talent was too extraordinary. Not only did she cultivate ice-type Cultivation Method, but she also cultivated the Seven-Colored Cloud Light of the Illusionary Cloud Immortal Sect to an extremely profound level.

The once top power in the Weiyang Star Region, the Northern Cold Palace, even offered her the position of deputy palace master as a condition to recruit her.

But he was still rejected by the Ice Soul Venerable.

Some say that if Venerable Ice Soul hadn't joined the Illusionary Clouds Immortal Sect and had gone to the Northern Cold Palace instead, his achievements would likely have been even greater.

No one knows why Venerable Ice Soul insisted on staying at the Illusionary Cloud Immortal Sect.

Over the years, various rumors have circulated, but none have been confirmed.

Within the Illusionary Cloud Immortal Sect, Venerable Ice Soul's status is second only to the Supreme Elder, making him a figure of immense power and influence.

"Master, this is the situation."

The Holy Maiden Caixia recounted everything that had happened during this period in detail.

This also included her true purpose in sending Han Ke to Canglan Star.

The Nascent Spirit Transformation present all showed strange expressions when they heard that the Holy Maiden of Rainbow Clouds had sent Han Ke to Canglan Star in order to find Tuo Sen.

Standing in the corner, Jiang Yunchen couldn't help but sneer inwardly:

"So you really care about that failure back then. I thought you didn't care at all."

After listening to the story told by the Holy Maiden of Rainbow Clouds, the Ice Soul Venerable said in a cold voice:

"I've told you more than once before that Tuosen is just a stumbling block on your path to growth, and I told you not to dwell on it so as not to affect your State of Mind. Now it seems you've been ignoring my words all along!"

The Ice Soul Venerable's voice was devoid of any emotion, and even his expression was as cold as ice.

The Holy Maiden of Rainbow Clouds immediately knelt on the ground:

"This disciple knows his mistake!"

Jiang Zhan, who was standing to the side, spoke up:

"Senior Bing, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on the Holy Maiden. After all, no one expected that the Devil Cultivator from Canglan Star would break free so quickly."

Jiang Zhan was very respectful, even though he was a member of the Jiang clan.

However, cultivators at the Void Refinement stage hold a transcendent status in the Weiyang Starfield; such powerful beings are the pinnacle of strength in the starfield.

Moreover, if it weren't for Venerable Ice Soul's arrival, it's uncertain whether they would have been able to return to the Weiyang Star Region alive.

The Ice Soul Venerable said expressionlessly:

"Devil Cultivator? That's just your own opinion. Before I came, I asked the people from the Star Palace to use the Celestial Monitoring Instrument to check, and there was no demonic energy in the area where Canglan Star is located."

"What? Not Devil Cultivator? Then how did Elder Ding and the others die?!"

Jiang Zhan's eyes widened.
