The Sea Fork Race Arrives

Chen Feng immediately put a fragment into his storage ring.

The wooden sword began absorbing the fragment as soon as it came into contact with it.

As the wooden sword absorbed the energy, something within the fragment of the Heavenly Treasure seemed to be dissipating.

"This thing might not be as simple as I thought."

A glint flashed in Chen Feng's eyes. He had previously thought that the wooden sword was just an ordinary spiritual treasure, since it was something that Zheng Jiao had obtained by chance.

At that time, Zheng Jiao was only at the Golden Core stage, and the treasures he obtained were not particularly powerful.

However, this wooden sword can now even absorb fragments of a near-heavenly treasure, which is quite remarkable.

Let's see if anything changes after absorbing these fragments.

Chen Feng immediately placed all the fragments next to the wooden sword, since they were useless to him anyway.

If it can change the wooden sword, that would be a good thing.

After collecting all the treasures on the ground, Chen Feng pondered his next plan.

He already has the elemental stones; now all he needs to do is break through to the Void Refinement stage.

There are still about seven years until the cultivators from the Haotian Secret Realm arrive, which translates to seventy years in the Painting Scroll World.

"I must break through to the Void Refinement stage within twenty years, and then use the remaining time to refine more planets in the modern world."

Chen Feng made arrangements for the follow-up plan.

He had a feeling that simply breaking through to the Void Refinement stage might not be enough to deal with the terrifying forces behind the Haotian Secret Realm.

A 24-star array is still too few.

Breaking through to the Void Refinement stage in twenty years would seem like a fantasy to any cultivator.

The Spirit Transformation stage to the Void Refinement stage has stumped countless geniuses.

Some people have been trapped in this state for thousands of years.

But Chen Feng had enough confidence to break through.

His strength had long surpassed the Refinement Void level, and he had fought against Refinement Void cultivators many times, so his understanding of the Principle was much higher than that of other Spirit Transformation cultivators.

In addition, there's his Eye of Principle.

This item can help him comprehend the Principle more quickly, and in the meantime he has also obtained many spiritual items that help him break through to the Void Refinement stage.

With such a foundation, breaking through to the Void Refinement Realm in twenty years is not a pipe dream.

As for the tribulation that cultivators at the Void Refinement stage need to overcome, he doesn't need to prepare any tribulation-crossing treasures; he can simply return to the modern world to undergo the tribulation.

Chen Feng's pupils quickly turned purple.

The surrounding scenery quickly changed, and all sorts of Principle appeared before him.

Chen Feng did not choose those special Principle that were difficult to master. Although these Principle were powerful, they took several times or even dozens of times longer to comprehend than other Principle.

His goal wasn't to increase his combat power through these Principle; he simply wanted to master one Principle to break through his cultivation realm.

Other Principle can be learned gradually later.

"Every Principle has its own unique characteristics. I need to find the one that suits me, and then fully comprehend it."

Chen Feng's purple pupils flickered as he began searching among the countless Principle around him.

Ten days later.

Inside the cave abode, a thread of Principle floated silently in front of Chen Feng.

This thread of Principle had no color; it was as if it were a wisp of air floating in front of him.

During those ten days, he observed hundreds of different kinds of Principle, almost every attribute was present, and he also tried to comprehend them.

In the end, he discovered that the Principle of Force was the most suitable for him.

The Principle of Force is the simplest. Mastering it can greatly increase one's power, and it can be fully utilized without even needing to specifically cultivate the Principle's Divine Ability. It is one of the purest Principle.

The Principle of Force is not particularly rare; many people have mastered Principle, and its power is not considered strong.

As for how he could resonate with the Principle of Force, Chen Feng estimated that it was related to the strength of his physical body.

This Principle was condensed within ten days.

The prerequisite for Spirit Transformation cultivator to break through to the Void Refinement stage is to condense one hundred strands of Principle.

After obtaining one hundred threads of Principle, one needs to draw upon the primordial energy of heaven and earth to fuse one's Primordial Spirit spirit with the threads of Principle, thereby causing a qualitative change in the Primordial Spirit.

Every step during this process must be flawless.

The threads of Principle are formed from the rules of the universe. If one is not careful, they can damage Primordial Spirit. This is why many beings at the peak of the Spirit Transformation dare not fuse with even a hundred threads of Principle.

Many Spirit Transformation linger at this stage for a long time, in order to gain a deeper understanding of the Principle and thus ensure a successful fusion.

But Chen Feng didn't consider these things at all; with the help of vast resources, he could completely ignore the risks involved.

Moreover, even if the fusion fails, he can still draw upon the power of the stars to protect his Primordial Spirit.

Without wasting any time, Chen Feng immediately began to comprehend the Principle of power.

Three months have passed quietly.

In the past three months, Xingfeng Sect has successfully taken over the entire Mingzhou Continent, and the turmoil in Mingzhou has gradually subsided.

At first, the cultivators of the Underworld Continent were quite apprehensive, after all, they had fought alongside the Yin Corpse Sect against the Xingfeng Sect.

However, several months passed, and Xingfeng Sect did not pursue the matter further. They simply took some of their resources and then left them alone.

This reassured many factions.

In fact, other forces on the Underworld Continent had no sense of belonging to the Yin Corpse Sect at all.

The emergence of the Xingfeng Sect was simply another way to change the object of offerings.

After the turmoil on the Mingzhou continent subsided, the Xingfeng Sect's branch was successfully established.

The location is right next to the headquarters of the Yin Corpse Sect.

The Yin Corpse Sect's headquarters were located in a crevice, a place perpetually devoid of sunlight and brimming with Yin Qi.

The Xingfeng Sect would naturally not choose to establish a branch in such a Yin Qi and eerie place.

The reason for choosing to build it next to the Yin Corpse Sect was also because the area was rich in Spiritual Qi and vital energy.

Over the past three months, Xingfeng Sect has transported a large amount of resources and manpower from Canglan Star.

The Xuanwu formation has established ten new missile bases on the Mingzhou continent, and the Qinglong, Zhuque, and Baihu formations have each sent a group of personnel.

Liu Qian chose to stay on the Mingzhou Continent to oversee the overall situation, while the Canglan Star was left to Mo Chen and other elders of the Xingfeng Sect.

Canglan Star has been unified, so naturally nothing will happen.

It is worth mentioning that Xingfeng Sect has also opened interstellar flights to the Underworld Continent. Any cultivator from Canglan Star can enter the Underworld Continent to cultivate after applying.

However, not many cultivators applied to go to the Underworld Continent.

Because the spiritual energy of Canglan Star is now comparable to that of the Mingzhou Continent, resources can also be purchased from the Xingfeng Sect.

Most of the cultivators from Canglan Star who come to the Underworld Continent are only driven by curiosity.

In addition to these, Xingfeng Sect also took over various industries of Yinshi Sect in the nearby star river, including three Yuan Stone mines and many other rare mineral veins.

These mineral veins were all naturally formed in the starry sky, and each type of mineral vein belongs to a high-level resource.

Inside a star vortex near the continent of Mingzhou.

Two figures flew out of the vortex. Both of them had the cultivation level of the Void Refinement stage, and there was a crescent-shaped gill slit on each side of their necks.

These two were actually cultivators from the Sea Chariot Clan.

The Sea Fork tribe places great importance on bloodlines, which are manifested in the gill slits on both sides of the neck.

The more gill slits a person has, the nobler their bloodline.

"We've finally arrived!" one of the tall Sea Fork Tribe members said, looking at the distant starry sky.

Another short Sea Fork tribesman said with a smile:

"It's a peripheral star system, so it's normal that it's far away. Let's hurry up and investigate; His Highness is probably getting impatient."

These two were naturally the two sent by the Six Holy Sons of the Sea Chariot Clan to investigate.

The sudden loss of contact with the Yin Corpse Sect alerted the Six Holy Sons, prompting them to send people to investigate.

"Let's go!" said the giant sea monster, and a wave of water appeared beneath his feet.

The flow of water caused space to distort.

The two immediately sped off towards the Underworld Continent.

Several days later, the two members of the Sea Fork Clan stopped outside the Underworld Continent because they had been stopped by someone.

The one who stopped them was none other than Qiong Leizi.

"Qiong Lei Zi? What are you doing stopping us?" The tall Sea Chariot Clan member's gaze was hostile.

He naturally recognized Qiong Leizi. Although there were many Void Refinement experts in the Dinghai Star Region, very few had reached the peak of Void Refinement. Such experts were invincible below the half-step Dao Integration realm.

Even among their Sea Fork Clan, those at the peak of the Void Refinement stage can hold high-ranking positions.

Qiong Leizi looked at the two of them and said with a smile:

"Have the two envoys come here regarding the Yin Corpse Sect?"

Upon hearing this, the two Sea Sparrows exchanged a glance, and the taller Sea Sparrow said coldly:

"That's right, His Highness ordered us to investigate the situation of the Yin Corpse Sect."

"You two don't need to look anymore. The Yin Corpse Sect has been destroyed, and the Underworld Continent now has a new master," Qiong Leizi said slowly.

"What did you say? The Yin Corpse Sect has been destroyed?" The two Sea Fork Clan members were clearly shocked by this news.

Although the Yin Corpse Sect is not considered a major force in the Dinghai Star Region, it still has five Void Refinement level experts, and the Yin Corpse Sect is backed by the Six Holy Sons.

Who in the entire Dinghai Star Region dares to annihilate the Yin Corpse Sect?

The short-statured Sea Fork Clan member asked in a low voice, "What exactly happened? Who destroyed the Yin Corpse Sect?"

Qiong Leizi sighed:

"It's a long story."

Qiong Leizi directly stated the reason he had prepared.

That is, the Yin Corpse Sect suddenly provoked the Xingfeng Sect, and a great battle broke out between the two sides. The Yin Corpse Sect was defeated and subsequently destroyed.

As for the origin of the Xingfeng Sect, Qiong Leizi directly stated that it was a force secretly cultivated by the Five Holy Maidens.

After hearing Qiong Leizi's words, the two Sea Chariot Clan members were at a loss for words.

They naturally knew about the Fifth Holy Maiden; she was the Sixth Holy Son's older sister, and her status within the Sea Fork Clan was even higher than that of the Fifth Holy Son.

If it was indeed the forces under the Fifth Holy Maiden who made the move, then even the Sixth Holy Son would have to swallow his anger, since he was outmatched.

But this feud is definitely now in place.

After pondering for a moment, Gao Haichazu said, "Have someone from the Xingfeng Sect come over; we need to ask them some questions."

The two naturally wouldn't believe Qiong Leizi's one-sided story and had to find someone from the Xingfeng Sect to ask him.

Moreover, if they went back like this, they wouldn't be able to explain it to the Sixth Holy Son. Inquiring about the background of the Xingfeng Sect would make it easier for them to report back.

Qiong Leizi thought for a moment, then nodded, and took out a communicator to make contact.

This is the communicator that the Xingfeng Sect gave him; it can only send simple electromagnetic waves.

The reason why the Xingfeng Sect has not yet been launched from the Mingzhou continent is mainly because the Mingzhou continent is just a continent, not a planet.

To launch a satellite, you must first gather orbital data and then build the corresponding satellite, which is not something that can be done in a short time.

The three didn't have to wait long before a space carrier arrived at the scene.

Jiang Bohan flew down from the mothership.

Qiong Leizi smiled at Jiang Bohan and said, "Elder Jiang, these two are envoys from the Haicha Clan. They have come to inquire about some matters concerning your sect."

Jiang Bohan already knew the situation beforehand, so he wasn't surprised. He bowed to the two Sea Chariot tribesmen:

"Jiang Bohan greets the two envoys!"

The two Sea Fork Clan members frowned upon seeing that Jiang Bohan was only at the Spirit Transformation stage.

Gao Haichazu coldly said, "What? We've come here as two, and Xingfeng Sect only sent one Spirit Transformation cultivator?"

Upon hearing this, Qiong Leizi was momentarily speechless.

He couldn't very well say that Chen Feng was the only one in the entire Xingfeng Sect who had reached the Void Refinement stage, especially since Chen Feng was currently in seclusion and Qiong Lei Zi dared not disturb him.

Jiang Bohan, however, remained expressionless and cupped his hands in greeting, saying:

"Reporting to the two envoys, our Void Refinement cultivators are currently engaged in fighting off cultivators from beyond the realm and are not currently within the sect."

Jiang Bohan was originally the leader of a powerful force, so he naturally knew how to handle this situation.

Upon hearing this, the short sea hawk tribe member gave Jiang Bohan a cold look:

"A mere Nascent Spirit Transformation, do you even have the right to speak here?"

A terrifying pressure of Divine Sense instantly enveloped Jiang Bohan. Jiang Bohan was only at the Spirit Transformation; how could he possibly withstand the Divine Sense of a Void Refinement cultivator?

As soon as he was enveloped by Divine Sense, his face turned pale, and blood even spilled from the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this, Qiong Leizi immediately released his Divine Sense to neutralize the Divine Sense of the Haicha Clan.

The giant sea monster stared at Qiong Leizi:

"Qiong Leizi, what do you mean?"

Qiong Leizi said with a grim expression, "I meant nothing by it. On the contrary, the two envoys suddenly attacked the people of the Xingfeng Sect. Do they think that Her Highness the Fifth Holy Maiden won't blame them?"

Gao Haihai, a member of the Great Chariot Clan, said in a deep voice, "You don't need to use Her Highness the Holy Maiden to intimidate me. The Yin Corpse Sect was a force under the Six Holy Sons, and now that it has been destroyed, we naturally want to investigate it thoroughly."

"Bring out that Xingfeng Sect Master, we'll ask him a few questions and then leave!"

Jiang Bohan then continued:

"Gentlemen, our sect leader is not currently in the sect. Please feel free to ask us any questions."

"Get lost!" Gao Haicha interrupted Jiang Bohan's words, and a large number of water waves immediately appeared around them, all of which contained extremely strong water Principle.

Qiong Leizi reacted quickly, flicking his finger towards the water wave.

A bolt of lightning struck the waves at incredible speed.

Boom!

The collision of the two energies immediately caused the starry sky to tremble.

After everything calmed down, Qiong Leizi was about to question him, but then his expression changed.

Because Jiang Bohan's physical body had already disappeared in the distance, only his Primordial Spirit remained in the scene.

Jiang Bohan was only at the early stage of the Spirit Transformation. The aftershocks of a battle at the Void Refinement level were something he couldn't withstand. In that instant, his physical body was destroyed.

"It's over!" This was the only thought in Qiong Leizi's mind at that moment.

Previously, merely injuring Jiang Bohan was nothing, but now that Jiang Bohan's physical body is gone, the consequences are extremely serious.

Based on his investigation of Chen Feng over this period, he was well aware of Chen Feng's protective nature.

If Chen Feng were to learn of this, those two Sea Fork Clan members would undoubtedly be dead.

If these two die here, the Sixth Holy Son will certainly not let it go.

"Qiong Lei Zi, how dare you attack us!" Gao Haihai Chazu looked at Qiong Lei Zi with a face full of anger.

Upon hearing this, Qiong Leizi felt like cursing.

He'd never seen anyone so reckless. Why not just ask them a few questions, then go back and report? Why did they have to cause trouble?
