A Dramatic Surge in Strength!

The strange phenomena in the starry sky did not stop.

The six illusory stars were seen swirling around, forming a hexagonal formation.

The moment this hexagonal formation was formed, the aura of the six stars seemed to merge into one.

The entire starry sky was immediately filled with a vast and ancient aura.

Lin Wei, Xiao Ning, and the others trembled involuntarily upon sensing this aura.

Faced with this aura, they were like insignificant ants.

Xiao Ning, Yang Fuqiang, and other low-level cultivators collapsed to the ground, their spiritual energy ceasing to circulate at that moment.

Even Lin Wei, a cultivator who had reached the Golden Core level, had her forehead covered in cold sweat.

She sensed that the golden core within her body was beginning to crack.

The group was utterly horrified, knowing that they were tens of thousands of miles away from the strange phenomenon.

At such a great distance, the aura must have weakened considerably, but even so, they couldn't withstand it.

One can imagine that if they were at the center of that strange phenomenon, they would probably have died on the spot.

Fortunately, this aura didn't last long, disappearing without a trace in less than ten seconds.

At the same time, the phantom image of the hexagonal star array in the distant starry sky also disappeared.

Only a vast expanse of cosmic dust remains floating in space.

Within the cosmic dust, a figure stood there.

The person was dressed in white, with long, star-colored hair draped over their shoulders.

The figure simply stood there, seemingly blending into the surrounding starry sky.

Deep within this person's pupils, six illusory star images were rotating.

And a faint starlight appeared on the surface of his skin.

This person was none other than Chen Feng, who had formed a six-pointed star formation.

After nine months, Chen Feng successfully refined four star cores, which, together with the original two, formed a six-pointed star array.

The moment the star array was formed, his Primordial Spirit and physical body underwent a transformation.

First, the strength of the Primordial Spirit has increased significantly compared to before.

If classified according to the cultivation realm, Chen Feng's current aura has reached the mid-stage of the Spirit Transformation realm.

But this is merely the realm of a cultivator.

The biggest change was in Chen Feng's physical body.

His flesh and blood were covered by the vast energy of the stars, and even his bones radiated starlight. His physical strength at this moment was several times greater than before.

If he were to face the Ice Soul Venerable again now, even if he were to lose, he wouldn't be as pathetic as before.

However, this is merely a comprehensive upgrade after the star array is formed.

What's truly terrifying is that after the hexagram formation was completed, Chen Feng was able to draw upon a portion of the power of the celestial stars for enhancement.

With a thought, Chen Feng's six-pointed star array immediately emitted light and then began to operate within his body.

In an instant, wisps of strange energy appeared in the endless starry sky.

These strange forces converged on Chen Feng at an accelerated pace, and after entering his body...

His aura changed at that moment.

The sheer pressure emanating from it was already comparable to that of a Void Refinement cultivator.

After glancing at the distant starry sky, Chen Feng unleashed a punch!

In an instant, the space within thousands of miles in front of him shattered into nothingness.

If this punch were to land on a planet, it would be enough to shatter it!

"This is the power of all the stars in the heavens!" Chen Feng's eyes lit up with excitement.

The Greater Celestial Circuit Star Refining Technique only records that one's strength will be greatly enhanced after forming a star array.

However, there was no specific description. It wasn't until Chen Feng personally experienced this power that he realized how terrifying it was.

With a flash, Chen Feng vanished from his spot in an instant.

The next second, he was already thousands of miles away, and his escape speed was now almost as fast as that of the Void Refinement Old Monster.

"With my current strength, I wouldn't fear even a mid-stage Void Refinement Venerable like Ice Soul Venerable, and as for an early-stage Void Refinement Venerable, I could easily suppress him with a wave of my hand!"

Chen Feng had a general idea of his current strength, but he would need to fight those Void Refinement level monsters to know for sure.

After all, the strength of a Void Refinement cultivator is related to the Principle they have mastered, and these old Divine Ability.

Regardless, his physical body is now fearless even when facing an attack from several Void Refinement cultivators.

"This is only the power of the first star array. If I refine more star cores..."

Chen Feng looked at the distant planets in the starry sky, his gaze burning with fervor.

The Greater Celestial Circuit Star Array initially only required six star cores to form, but the next expansion will require a total of twelve star cores.

Following this pattern, the subsequent star arrays are 24, 48, 96, 192, and finally 365.

In the early stages, it can only be considered a small star array, and the bonuses gained are not significant.

Once he reaches the star array composed of forty-eight star cores, his power will increase to a terrifying level.

"If I were to form a star array with 365 star cores, and then draw upon the power of the stars for enhancement, wouldn't my strength be comparable to that of a true immortal?"

The thought crossed Chen Feng's mind, but he quickly suppressed his excitement.

Let's not even talk about how difficult it is to form Greater Celestial Circuit array composed of 365 star cores.

Chen Feng already felt the difficulty of the twelve-star formation alone.

He discovered that for the star core to condense further, simply refining a single planet was far from enough; it would need to be at least a large planet.

According to his estimate, he would need to enhance the first six star cores to form a twelve-star array.

It seems that the number of planets that need to be refined will increase dramatically in the future, and the planets within the Haotian Secret Realm alone will be far from sufficient.

Moreover, each planet must be refined to overcome a heavenly tribulation.

What puzzled Chen Feng was that after refining the planet in the Haotian Secret Realm, no heavenly tribulation descended upon him, which greatly surprised him.

Another crucial point is that he has run out of elemental stones.

He had used up all the elemental stones he obtained from the purple tree, and without them, the process of refining the planet would be much slower.

This is also why Chen Feng did not continue refining the planet.

"I only have ten years, I must hurry." Chen Feng looked up at the sky.

The tremendous increase in his strength did not make him complacent. The sect that created the Haotian Secret Realm was probably even stronger than the Star Palace.

Faced with such a being, the strength of a Void Refiner is probably simply insignificant.

Chen Feng then focused his mind on his sea of consciousness, and the painting remained standing there without any change.

"For the painting to be altered again, I'm afraid my own cultivation level would need to reach the Refinement of Emptiness."

Chen Feng frowned deeply; his cultivation level was currently at the mid-stage of the Spirit Transformation.

However, due to the Greater Celestial Circuit Heavenly Star Refining Technique, his strength was comparable to that of a mid-stage Void Refining cultivator.

His cultivation path had completely gone astray.

Spirit Transformation cultivator only needs to increase the strength of their Primordial Spirit to improve their power. When he formed the first star array, his Primordial Spirit increased, which is why he broke through to the mid- Spirit Transformation stage.

He only needs to continue refining the planet, and sooner or later he will be able to reach the peak of the Spirit Transformation stage.

However, breaking through to the Void Refinement stage is very difficult.

To break through to the Void Refinement stage, one must master a Principle power, causing something called Principle to emerge within the body.

Some exceptionally talented Spirit Transformation cultivators can sense the Principle at the Spirit Transformation stage.

These Spirit Transformation cultivators are the ones who most desire to break through to the Void Refinement stage.

Take Lu Linyuan for example; he comprehended a trace of the Principle of space at the Spirit Transformation stage.

However, Chen Feng has not comprehended any Principle yet; he has relied mostly on his physical strength to get to where he is today.

The Principle can only be comprehended through perception, or sensed through the aid of spiritual objects.

This is why there are so many Spirit Transformation cultivators in the Weiyang Star Region.

But that's because there are only about thirty Refinement Void Realm experts in total.

"Forget it, improving my strength is the most important thing right now." Chen Feng temporarily abandoned the idea of breaking through to the Void Refinement realm.

He doesn't have time to sit in meditation for hundreds of years to comprehend the Principle.

He only has ten years. After ten years, the sect that created the Haotian Secret Realm will send someone over.

Chen Feng then unleashed his Divine Sense, spreading it outwards into the surrounding starry sky.

Ten thousand miles!

Thirty thousand miles!

It wasn't until the very last 80,000 miles of his Divine Sense that he reached his limit.

"Eighty thousand miles of Divine Sense, although not comparable to the Divine Sense of a Void Refinement cultivator, is not far off." Chen Feng smiled.

In these nine months, he also experienced another significant improvement: his Divine Sense and soul.

Over the past nine months, Jack has delivered a large number of soul crystals.

After absorbing a large number of soul crystals, his Divine Sense surged to 80,000 li.

It should be noted that the limit of a typical Spirit Transformation cultivator's Divine Sense is only a little over ten thousand miles.

He is currently only at the mid-stage of the Spirit Transformation realm, but his Divine Sense has reached 80,000 li.

And this is only a portion of the soul crystals of the Demon Beast within the Haotian Secret Realm.

If he could absorb all the soul crystals of the Demon Beast within the Haotian Secret Realm...

Then it wouldn't be a problem for his Divine Sense to surpass the Void Refinement stage.

"This sect keeps so many soul beasts, probably so that their exceptionally talented disciples can devour soul crystals. Their methods are truly remarkable."

Chen Feng couldn't help but feel even more wary of the sect that created this secret realm.

The fact that such a secret realm was built just to train disciples, and that soul beasts were fed there, is enough to prove just how powerful this sect is.

Now, not only have I refined this planet, but I've also absorbed all these soul crystals. It's as if I've prematurely seized the fortuitous opportunity of this sect's True Disciple, which means I've already formed a deadly enmity with him.

Without further thought, Chen Feng immediately strode towards the two space carriers in the distance.

However, the moment he took a step, the space around him shattered.

Upon seeing this, Chen Feng finally realized what was happening and quickly stopped the star array within his body from operating, causing the blessing of the power of the stars in the heavens to disappear immediately.

The spatial intensity within the Haotian Secret Realm is similar to that of the solar system.

With the power of the stars in the heavens amplified, the space here simply couldn't withstand his physical body; he could shatter the space with just a casual stroll.

As the star array stopped operating, the terrifying aura emanating from Chen Feng also vanished.

He then transformed into a streak of light and headed towards the space carrier.

Before long, Chen Feng arrived on the deck of the mothership.

Upon seeing Chen Feng appear, Jack immediately greeted him with a smile, "Boss, are you finished cultivating?"

"Hello, Mr. Chen," Xiao Ning greeted him politely.

Zhou Chen and Yang Fuqiang also spoke up, "Mr. Chen."

They had all witnessed the strange phenomena that occurred after the planet's destruction, and even the slightest aura emanating from those phenomena sent chills down their spines.

Although the group didn't know Chen Feng's exact cultivation level, they gained some understanding of Chen Feng strength through that unusual phenomenon.

Chen Feng nodded slightly, as if to say hello.

Lin Wei didn't speak, she just kept looking at Chen Feng. Her relationship with Chen Feng naturally didn't require any greetings.

Jack then said:

"Boss, I brought three hundred soul crystals this time; they're all in the mothership's warehouse."

"Yes, thank you for your hard work." Without Jack's reminder, Chen Feng's Divine Sense had already detected the soul crystals in the mothership's warehouse.

With a wave of his right hand, the soul crystal placed in the box flew out automatically and was then stored in his storage ring.

After doing all this, Chen Feng immediately said:

"Continue clearing out the Demon Beast."

After saying that, Chen Feng threw out a large pile of talismans, more than a hundred in total. These were all Nascent Soul level talismans that he had collected before.

Among them were several talismans at the Spirit Transformation stage.

Xiao Ning immediately took the talismans and said:

"Mr. Chen, rest assured, we will eliminate the Demon Beast as soon as possible."

At this moment, Lin Wei said:

"Xiao Ning is about to break through to the Golden Core stage. I want her to break through to the Golden Core stage first before going to deal with the Demon Beast."

Chen Feng glanced at Xiao Ning and then nodded. "Okay, let's go then."

After saying that, Chen Feng led Lin Wei and Xiao Ning away from the mothership's deck.

Only after Chen Feng left did Zhou Chen and Yang Fuqiang finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Seeing the two of them like this, Jack asked in surprise:

"What's wrong with you two? Why do you look so pale?"

Yang Fuqiang asked in confusion, "Didn't you feel the oppressive aura emanating from Mr. Chen?"

Jack shook his head. "No, the boss has always been like this."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chen and Yang Fuqiang exchanged a glance and immediately understood.

Only cultivators could feel the oppressive aura emanating from Chen Feng.

"Gentlemen, are you coming with me to clear out the Demon Beast, or will you be going on your own?" Jack asked.

Chen Feng's words of thanks for his hard work had put Jack in a great mood.

He planned to clear out the Demon Beast as soon as possible, so that his boss would value him even more.

Zhou Chen said, "Let's go together. Mr. Chen gave us some more talismans this time, which will make dealing with those Demon Beast much easier."

Upon hearing this, Jack didn't delay any longer and immediately ordered the space carrier to restart, then headed towards the distant starry sky.

Planet 01.

In a room at a military base.

Chen Feng sat on the sofa, and sitting opposite him were Lin Wei and Xiao Ning.

Lin Wei was telling Chen Feng about the things that had happened on Earth recently.

"That's the situation. The corpse of that Demon Beast has been divided up by various countries and taken back for research." After explaining the situation, Lin Wei placed a soul crystal on the table.

Chen Feng nodded. "Although many people died, it's a good thing that they've come to realize the gap in skill."

"Starting today, there will be no more restrictions on martial arts pills; they can be widely available. Additionally, some low-level weapon-refining materials can be sold to other countries to help them accelerate their research progress."

Lin Wei nodded. "Okay."

Low-level refining materials naturally refer to materials used for forging Law Artifact and Law Treasure, which are of no value to Chen Feng at present.

It would be better to sell it to countries around the world, so that they can accelerate their technological research and development.

Chen Feng then glanced at the two women. "Since you're both going to break through, why don't you both break through together?"

He could naturally see Lin Wei's current cultivation level; she had reached the peak of the Golden Core stage and was capable of breaking through to the Nascent Soul.

After the two women complete their breakthroughs, he will depart to return to the Painting Scroll World.
