The Destruction of the Nanyang Sect
Tuoba Yang said:
"Fellow Daoist Xu, we still need to be careful. This person couldn't possibly be unaware of the strength of our two families, yet he still dares to do this, clearly indicating he has some confidence."
Tuoba Yang was not in a good mood; the plan to attack the Weiyang Star Region had not gone smoothly.
Even without the Star Palace's intervention, they only managed to capture a mere dozen or so planets.
The emergence of another unknown powerful figure has undoubtedly complicated the situation further.
"Fellow Daoist Tuoba, I need to return to my sect to report this matter. Please let me know if there is any news about that person."
After saying that, Xu Mufan left with his men, completely ignoring Tuoba Yang's words.
Lord Xiao spoke:
"The Fancang Sect is notorious; cooperating with them will likely not be a good thing."
Lord Xiaodian has never liked the people of Cangfan Sect.
Not only were they arrogant, but they also didn't take the Voidling race seriously.
Of the resources captured on this cultivation star, 80% were taken by the Fancang Sect.
Tuoba Yang sighed:
"Our main force is currently stuck in the Dinghai Star Region and cannot be withdrawn. If it weren't for our cooperation with the Cangfan Sect, it would be very difficult to take over the Weiyang Star Region. Let's just be patient a little longer."
Lord Xiao asked, "What exactly is the patriarch thinking? Why invade two star systems at the same time?"
Lord Xiao was puzzled. Although their Void Spirit Clan was strong, there was no need for them to attack two star regions at the same time.
The best option is to unite our forces in one place.
Tuoba Yang shook his head. "I don't know what the clan leader is thinking, but since he did it, there must be a deeper meaning behind it."
"As for the Cangfan Sect, let them continue to be arrogant for now. When the Star Palace appears, that will be their time to lend a hand."
Lord Xiao said in a deep voice:
Is Xinggong really that powerful?
Tuoba Yang said with a solemn expression, "Even if all the Void Refinement experts in the Weiyang Star Region gathered together, they still couldn't defeat the Star Palace. This force has existed since the birth of the Weiyang Star Region, especially the Star Palace's Star Lord, whose Divine Ability powers are so strong that even the clan leader probably couldn't defeat him."
Upon hearing this, Lord Xiao's heart tightened. "Could it be that this person has already taken that step?"
Tuoba Yang shook his head:
"I don't know, but now is not the time to worry about these things. You should focus on leading your men to conquer more cultivation stars."
"What about Lan Yin and the others?" Lord Xiao asked.
"Since that person demands a ransom, he will definitely show up when the time comes, so there's no rush," Tuoba Yang said calmly.
The capture of only a few Spirit Transformation is not a significant loss for the Void Spirit Clan.
The Cangfan Sect is the biggest headache, because that person is a Void Refinement cultivator.
Dozens of Spirit Transformation are not worth as much as one Void Refinement expert.
Nanyang Star, Nanyang Clan.
As one of the top powers in the Weiyang Star Region, the Nanyang Sect holds a very high position in the Weiyang Star Region.
Every year, many cultivators from other places come to join this sect because of its reputation.
However, since an incident seven years ago, the Nanyang Sect has become a laughing stock in the Weiyang Star Region.
Seven years ago, Chen Beijing, who was wanted by the Star Palace, appeared at the Nanyang Sect. Despite the Nanyang Sect dispatching a Void Refinement cultivator and more than a dozen Spirit Transformation, they were unable to stop Chen Beijing.
Not only did he escape, but half of the Nascent Spirit Transformation on Nanyang Star also perished.
A top-tier sect, despite mobilizing almost its entire strength, failed to retain a single Spirit Transformation cultivator.
It's easy to imagine the sensation this caused.
Although no one said anything openly, quite a few people were secretly mocking them.
Although the Nanyang Sect later sent many cultivators to search for Chen Beijing.
However, after Chen Beijing went to Xuanxiao Star, he completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
Inside a cave abode in the back mountain of the Nanyang Sect.
The three Nascent Soul cultivators from the Nanyang Sect gathered here.
Besides Tianyangzi, who fought Chen Feng, there was also a young man and an old woman.
These two were naturally the other two Void Refinement cultivators from the Nanyang Sect.
"Senior brother, it's been seven years, and there's still no news of Chen Beijin?" the youngest of the three asked.
His skin was completely red, and there was a flame mark between his eyebrows.
Venerable Shangyang was the first cultivator in the true sense of the word in the Nanyang Sect.
He has mastered as many as nine hundred threads of Principle, and is only one step away from the mid-stage of Void Refinement.
Venerable Shangyang harbored deep resentment towards what happened seven years ago.
At that time, he and his senior sister were not in the sect because of some business.
Unexpectedly, a momentous event occurred within the sect that shook the entire star field.
In recent years, when he travels and exchanges ideas with like-minded people, they always bring up this incident to ridicule him.
His hatred for Chen Feng was exceptionally deep.
Tianyangzi shook his head:
"No, our people have been searching Xuanxiao Star for years, but we still haven't found a single clue about this person."
Tianyangzi also harbored deep resentment towards Chen Feng.
He hadn't forgotten the scene when the other party threatened their sect's disciples.
The old woman said worriedly, "If this child is not eliminated, he will surely become a great enemy of our Nanyang Sect in the future."
"Senior Sister, don't worry. I've already contacted the Jiang Clan and fellow Daoists from the Huanxia Immortal Sect. If this person shows up, these two major forces will join us in attacking. Even if Chen Beijing truly attains the Dao Refinement Realm a thousand years later, he will surely die."
Venerable Shangyang said coldly.
Tianyangzi then changed the subject and asked:
How is the situation at the front?
The old woman replied, "The offensive of the Void Spirit Clan and the Cangfan Sect is very strong, and the major powers in the star field have their own ulterior motives. Nearly twenty cultivation stars have already been lost."
Tianyangzi nodded. "They're probably trying to test the Star Palace's attitude. These old guys seem to have been suppressed for too long."
Tianyangzi naturally guessed the thoughts of the other forces. With the sudden disappearance of the Star Palace, the Void Refinement elders of these forces began to stir.
Reaching the Refinement of Emptiness realm means becoming a powerful figure in a star field.
Who could willingly bear the weight of such a colossal entity as the Star Palace?
The reason they didn't intervene to stop the Void Spirit Clan and the Cangfan Sect was to force the Star Palace to reveal itself.
If the Star Palace doesn't appear, it proves that something is really wrong with it, and these old monsters will definitely take action.
The old woman said:
"Senior brother, our Nanyang Sect should not get involved. The Star Palace is not as simple as it seems."
Just as Tianyangzi was about to speak, a domineering Divine Sense suddenly swept over from afar.
The sheer power of this Divine Sense caused all three of them to instantly change their expressions.
The three of them immediately disappeared from the cave abode and arrived above the Nanyang Sect.
At this moment, the protective formation of the Nanyang Sect has been activated, clearly indicating that it has sensed the sweeping of Divine Sense.
"This Divine Sense is already close to the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm!"
The old woman spoke with a solemn expression.
From this Divine Sense, the three of them could determine the strength of the newcomer.
The cultivators of the Nanyang Sect naturally saw the appearance of their three patriarchs and were all extremely surprised.
There are very few things that could make the three patriarchs of the Nanyang Sect appear together.
Before long, a strangely shaped silver magic ship came into view.
Tianyangzi bowed respectfully.
"May I ask which fellow Daoist has graced my Nanyang Star with their presence?"
The other party was suspected to be a cultivator in the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm, so Tianyangzi did not dare to use his Divine Sense to investigate rashly, lest he offend the other party.
Within the Refining Void realm, even a minor realm can have significant differences.
This is related to the threads of the Principle that one has mastered.
Those at the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm have mastered at least a thousand threads of Principle. After such a large number of threads of Principle are integrated into their Divine Ability, the power of those Divine Ability is several times that of those at the early stage of the Void Refinement realm.
Once you reach the Refinement of Emptiness realm, the competition boils down to who has mastered the most threads of the Principle.
If one masters multiple Principle, one will inevitably become a leader among those of the same level.
Take, for example, the Ice Soul Venerable of the Illusory Clouds Immortal Trail. He alone has mastered two Principle, and each Principle has more than a thousand threads.
Even at the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm, Ice Soul Venerable was still a top-tier expert.
At that moment, the hatch of the silver warship slowly opened.
A young man dressed in white and a boy came out.
The boy's expression was bitter, while the young man remained indifferent.
Upon seeing the young man, Tianyangzi was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed in shock, "You... you are Chen Beijin?"
No wonder Tenyoko was so surprised.
In his subconscious, Chen Beijing, though strong, could only run away from their Nanyang Sect.
I never imagined that Chen Beijing would come knocking on my door.
Not only Tianyangzi, but also Venerable Shangyang and the old woman showed expressions of shock.
The three immediately looked at Chen Feng warily, and then spread their Divine Sense.
Chen Beijin was just a Spirit Transformation cultivator; what they cared about was the Divine Sense from the mid-stage Void Refinement cultivator.
The fact that the other party dared to come to their Nanyang Sect alone suggests that they likely brought a helper.
The cultivators of the Nanyang Sect naturally also saw Chen Feng.
Chen Feng's portrait has now spread throughout all the major cultivation stars, and almost every cultivator from major forces has seen it.
"It's Chen Beijing!"
"He actually dares to come to my Nanyang Sect!"
"Alright, with all three patriarchs here today, let's see how he tries to escape this time!"
The cultivators below were all glaring fiercely at Chen Feng, their faces revealing undisguised killing intent.
In the past seven years, their Nanyang Sect has lost all face in the star field.
The culprit behind all of this is Chen Beijing.
These disciples of the Nanyang Sect thought about avenging their previous humiliation almost every day.
Now that Chen Beijing has finally reappeared, they are naturally filled with killing intent.
Chen Feng paid no attention to the hostile gazes from below.
These powerful cultivators never considered who struck first.
However, this is the rule of the cultivation world: the strong prey on the weak, and he will abide by this rule today as well.
"Fellow members of the Nanyang Sect, I, Chen, have come here today to demand an explanation. How do you intend to settle the score for the day you surrounded and killed me?"
Chen Feng spoke calmly, his voice echoing throughout the entire Nanyang Sect.
Lan Yin's heart pounded wildly beside Chen Feng.
He never expected that Chen Feng would bring him here, and judging from the way he looked, he was preparing to take on the entire sect by himself.
The Nanyang Sect is a top-tier power with a history of tens of thousands of years, and it has three cultivators at the Void Refinement stage.
Lan Yin had to admire Chen Feng's courage.
"Chen Beijing, bring out the person behind you!" Tianyangzi stared intently at Chen Feng.
He had been scanning the area with his Divine Sense for a long time, but still hadn't found any other cultivators hiding around, which made him even more vigilant.
Chen Feng shook his head. "It seems I'm really not suited to spouting nonsense on the battlefield."
Chen Feng then took a step forward.
With that step, the surrounding space trembled violently.
The power of all the stars immediately converged on Chen Feng.
"Not good!"
Venerable Shangyang's expression changed drastically. He was the first to sense the change in Chen Feng's aura, and he actually felt danger in the face of this aura.
The next second, Chen Feng pointed his finger at a point.
Celestial Annihilation Finger!
A colossal phantom star appeared above the Nanyang Sect, its immense pressure causing the land within a radius of tens of thousands of miles to tremble.
The power of the stars not only makes Chen Feng's physical body comparable to Innate Spirit Treasure, but also enhances his Divine Ability abilities.
The power of the Celestial Annihilation Finger is several times stronger than it was seven years ago!
Sensing the terrifying power within that star, Venerable Shangyang touched his brow without hesitation.
Strands of Principle appeared around him.
Immediately afterwards, the vitality of the surrounding heaven and earth was immediately drained, and a giant flaming bird appeared in the sky above Nanyang Sect.
The giant bird and the stars collided instantly.
Boom!
The power of annihilation spread out along with the endless sea of fire.
The protective array of the Nanyang Sect was immediately covered with countless cracks.
Everything within thousands of miles of the Nanyang Sect was reduced to dust by this energy shockwave.
The aftershocks of that single attack destroyed an area equivalent to half of South America.
This horrifying scene left the Nanyang Sect disciples, who were initially filled with murderous intent, completely dumbfounded.
Chen Feng's displayed strength completely exceeded their expectations.
The elders of the Nanyang Sect reacted the fastest, immediately shouting:
"All disciples, listen to my command! Infuse your spiritual power into the great formation!"
The disciples immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and began to pour their spiritual power into the sect's protective formation.
The protective array of the Nanyang Sect suddenly shone brightly, and the cracks that had appeared were repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Outside the Nanyang Sect's formation, Venerable Shangyang stared at Chen Feng in shock:
"You're only at the mid-stage of the Spirit Transformation, how can you unleash such powerful Divine Ability!"
Venerable Shangyang was truly shocked.
The Divine Ability he just unleashed was reinforced with at least five hundred strands of Principle, but it could only barely block the opponent's attack.
More importantly, he did not sense any power of Principle in Chen Feng's Divine Ability.
Chen Feng did not answer; he was never one to waste words when it came to taking action.
With a flash, he transformed into a streak of starlight and rushed towards the three of them.
Seeing this, Tianyangzi and the old woman disregarded their shock and simultaneously Hand Seals to unleash their Divine Ability, attacking Chen Feng.
A fiery serpent and a fiery dragon appeared on the horizon.
These two strange beasts, formed from condensed flames, were each a kilometer long.
The fire serpent and the fire dragon crashed head-on into the starlight!
Wherever the two beasts passed, the space itself instantly melted.
Celestial Flame Spirit Technique.
The most Cultivation Method of the Nanyang Sect, which Tianyangzi and the other two cultivated, was this divine Divine Ability.
Boom boom boom!
The moment the starlight collided with the two beasts, another terrifying explosion erupted!
The combined power of two Void Refinement cultivators attacking simultaneously was terrifying.
The primordial energy of heaven and earth on Nanyang Star is rapidly dissipating at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Countless beings within Nanyang Star looked up towards the direction of Nanyang Sect.
The terrifying fluctuations emanating from there could be sensed even from tens of thousands of miles away.
Some high-level cultivators immediately headed towards the Nanyang Sect.
Everyone was shocked. Who on earth could force a Void Refinement cultivator from the Nanyang Sect to act so recklessly within the star?
After the starlight collided with the two fiery beasts, before Tianyangzi and the old woman could even breathe a sigh of relief...
Venerable Shangyang's expression changed again. "Senior Sister, be careful!"
He suddenly waved his hand behind the old woman.
An endless sea of fire converged behind the old woman.
The old woman also sensed the danger.
Before she could react, a fist slammed into her head.
Bang!
The old woman's protective aura and head were instantly blasted into dust by this punch.
"Ah!" A scream rang out in the arena.
This is a scream from the Primordial Spirit!
