The Eyeball's Visit

"Father, what's the name of this sword?"

Wang Fengnuo asked curiously.

"Well, you can name it yourself."

"Then let's call it Feng Nuo Sword! What do you think?" Wang Feng Nuo asked, blinking his big eyes.

"Okay, let's call it that then." Chen Feng smiled.

Seeing that Chen Feng and Wang Fengnuo had finished their conversation, Liu Qian spoke up at the opportune moment to ask:

"Sect Leader, should we gather everyone to discuss this? After all, you've been in seclusion for so long this time."

Chen Feng shook his head. "No need, I'll only stay for a few days at most. I'll have to continue my seclusion afterward. You can handle the matters within the sect."

He came back this time just to take a look and relax. He doesn't really care about the affairs of the Xingfeng Sect anymore; he only needs to know the situation inside the sect.

"Okay." Liu Qian nodded.

After chatting with Liu Qian for a couple of minutes, Chen Feng left with Wang Fengnuo.

"Godfather, where are we going?"

Inside the Xingfeng Sect branch, Chen Feng led Wang Fengnuo along a path, where she was studying the longsword Chen Feng had given her.

Chen Feng said, "Let's wander around a bit, and then go back to Canglan Star to take a look."

Wang Fengnuo's eyes lit up. "Are we going back to Canglan Star? It's been so long since I've been back, I wonder how my father is doing."

Being able to stroll around alone with Chen Feng made Wang Fengnuo very happy, as she usually found it difficult to even see Chen Feng.

Throughout the journey, Wang Fengnuo provided Chen Feng with a detailed account of the branch's situation.

The Xingfeng Sect branch on the Mingzhou continent has grown significantly in recent times, with over five thousand space carriers alone.

Most of the Xingfeng Sect's personnel were also transferred here.

The branch offices are all newly built buildings with a modern style, and occasionally you can see some Xingfeng Sect disciples driving vehicles.

However, none of these lower-ranking disciples recognized Chen Feng.

The Xingfeng Sect has recruited many new disciples over the past few decades, and since Chen Feng rarely appears in public, naturally not many people recognize him.

However, Wang Fengnuo is quite famous, and many people on the street greeted him.

"Feng Nuo, weren't you out on a mission? Why are you back all of a sudden?" A female voice rang out from not far away.

A woman with a single ponytail walked over from a distance. She had a pure and innocent appearance and looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old.

After looking at the woman, Wang Fengnuo quickly transmitted his voice to Chen Feng:

"Godfather, her name is Tang Xiaoxiao. She's Elder Yun's disciple, whom he took in six years ago."

The Elder Yun that Wang Fengnuo mentioned was naturally Yun Qingjue.

Twenty years ago, Yun Qingjue directly incorporated the Immortal Treasure Merchants into the Xingfeng Sect.

She herself has also joined the Xingfeng Sect. Not only her, but most of the Nascent Spirit Transformation on Canglan Star have joined the Xingfeng Sect.

Chen Feng already knew about this matter when he emerged from seclusion.

After Tang Xiaoxiao arrived in front of Wang Fengnuo, she immediately looked Chen Feng up and down and then asked:

"Feng Nuo, who is this senior brother? I've never seen him before."

Upon hearing this, Wang Fengnuo glanced at the surrounding crowd, thought for a moment, and said, "Don't talk nonsense. This is an elder in my family who came all the way from Canglan Star to visit me."

Wang Fengnuo was clever; she didn't reveal Chen Feng's identity.

Although she rarely met Chen Feng, she had heard many things about Chen Feng from her father.

My godfather has always preferred peace and quiet.

If Chen Feng's identity were revealed, it would probably immediately attract a large crowd.

"An elder?" Tang Xiaoxiao was clearly surprised.

Because Chen Feng only looked a few years older than her.

But then she thought that it wasn't so strange that some cultivators practiced techniques to preserve their youth.

She quickly bowed and greeted, "Greetings, senior!"

Chen Feng sized up Tang Xiaoxiao and nodded:

"To have reached the Golden Core stage at such a young age, it seems Yun Qingjue has taken on a good disciple."

Chen Feng could tell at a glance that Tang Xiaoxiao's cultivation level had reached the late stage of the Golden Core realm, which was higher than Wang Fengnuo's.

It's important to know that Wang Fengnuo is his goddaughter, and the Cultivation Resources she receives are no less than those of the disciples of the top forces in the star field.

Some of the higher-ups in the Xingfeng Sect would secretly give her various Cultivation Resources.

Tang Xiaoxiao is clearly exceptionally talented.

"Senior knows my master?" Tang Xiaoxiao was clearly surprised.

Yun Qingjue is at the peak of the Spirit Transformation.

Even within the Xingfeng Sect, he was among the top-tier experts. There were no more than ten people in the entire Xingfeng Sect who could address their master by his name.

Chen Feng smiled and said, "We've known each other for quite a while. Where is she now?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaoxiao's expression became even more respectful. She had already guessed that the elder of Wang Fengnuo in front of her was likely a cultivator at the Spirit Transformation stage.

"Master is currently in his cave abode, having just emerged from seclusion," Tang Xiaoxiao replied respectfully.

"Okay, take it with you," Chen Feng said.

Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaoxiao dared not delay and immediately led the way.

The two women walked in front, while Chen Feng walked behind.

Tang Xiaoxiao asked Wang Fengnuo in a low voice, "Fengnuo, I've never seen this elder of yours before. What is his status in the Xingfeng Sect? Is he Spirit Transformation cultivator?"

Upon hearing Tang Xiaoxiao's question, Wang Fengnuo smiled and said:

"My elder is usually in seclusion, so it's normal that you don't know him. As for his identity, he does hold an important position in the Xingfeng Sect, but I don't want to tell you right now!"

"Oh, you little brat, you're playing tricks on me again." Tang Xiaoxiao pinched Wang Fengnuo angrily.

The two girls then started playfully fighting.

Watching the two girls playfully bickering, Chen Feng's mood improved as well.

Tang Xiaoxiao and Wang Fengnuo both belong to the younger generation of the Xingfeng Sect.

Every power needs to be passed down, and Xingfeng Sect is no exception.

While consciousness transplantation can allow some people to continue living until their lifespan ends, these people will lose their strength.

This necessitates the replacement with new talent.

Whether it was the Mo family or the Ge family back then, or the former high- Xingfeng Sect, they were all already cultivating the next generation.

Chen Feng hadn't paid much attention to the younger generation of the Xingfeng Sect until today, when he realized that they were growing very quickly.

People like Wang Hu's generation were mostly martial artists and ordinary people. Even those who cultivated immortality missed the best opportunity for cultivation and could only reach a certain realm in their lifetime.

However, Wang Fengnuo and Tang Xiaoxiao are different. They were nurtured by the Xingfeng Sect from a young age, and with no shortage of resources and talent, they are often able to go further.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, the three arrived at a small courtyard.

This is Yun Qingjue's residence, and also the location of her cave abode.

Other cultivators would simply open a cave abode in the mountains to cultivate, but the cultivators of the Xingfeng Sect were different.

They would spend contribution points to have the people of the Xingfeng Sect build a small courtyard. This courtyard would be fully equipped with modern facilities, and cultivating in such a place would be much better than staying in a cave.

As soon as the three arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, a beautiful figure walked out from the courtyard.

"Master!" Tang Xiaoxiao immediately stepped forward and bowed.

Wang Fengnuo also bowed and addressed him as Elder Yun.

Yun Qingjue simply nodded to Wang Fengnuo and Tang Xiaoxiao, then walked up to Chen Feng and bowed slightly.

"Congratulations, Sect Master, on your successful completion of seclusion and your great advancement in cultivation!"

Chen Feng smiled faintly, "Hearing you call me sect leader makes me a little uncomfortable. Let's go inside and talk."

Yun Qingjue also smiled, and then led Chen Feng into the courtyard.

Standing there, Tang Xiaoxiao's eyes widened, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief:

"He's... the sect leader?"

Wang Fengnuo chuckled beside him:

"Yes, isn't my godfather my elder? Xiaoxiao, didn't you say you always wanted to meet my godfather? Now that you've met him, how does it feel?"

Tang Xiaoxiao was still in shock and did not answer Wang Fengnuo's question.

She only came to her senses after Wang Fengnuo shook her twice.

"Feng Nuo! Why didn't you tell me beforehand that he is the sect leader!" Tang Xiaoxiao looked at Wang Feng Nuo with a reproachful gaze.

Wang Fengnuo's expression remained unchanged. "There are so many people there. Am I supposed to shout that my godfather is right here? Wouldn't a whole bunch of people just swarm around me?"

Tang Xiaoxiao said excitedly:

"The sect leader is completely different from what I imagined. He's so easygoing. It's just a pity I didn't get to have a proper chat with him!"

Tang Xiaoxiao's face was flushed, a result of her excitement.

In the Xingfeng Sect, Chen Feng has become an idol for many.

Those of them who have been with the Xingfeng Sect since childhood have grown up listening to Chen Feng's stories.

Chen Feng's rise to power was nothing short of legendary.

The Xingfeng Sect has grown from a small mortal force to a star-domain level power.

All of this was achieved through Chen Feng's hard work and perseverance.

"If you want to talk to my godfather, there will be plenty of opportunities to do so once he comes out," Wang Fengnuo said with a smile.

Tang Xiaoxiao asked, "What should I say?"

The two then began to discuss things at the doorway.

The small courtyard, beside the pond and pavilion.

Chen Feng and Yun Qingjue sat in the pavilion, and Yun Qingjue poured Chen Feng a cup of tea.

"Sect Master, what did you gain from this seclusion?" Yun Qingjue asked tentatively.

Chen Feng nodded:

"Hmm, you've made some progress. You should be close to the Void Refinement stage by now."

With Chen Feng's Divine Sense, he could immediately perceive the fluctuations of the aura of Principle emanating from Yun Qingjue.

In the entire Xingfeng Sect, besides him, Yun Qingjue was the fastest to advance to the Void Refinement stage.

Yun Qingjue shook his head upon hearing this:

"Sect Master is joking. I'm still a long way from reaching the Void Refinement stage. I've only fused fifty Principle so far, and I don't know how long it will take to fuse one hundred Principle. Besides, the Void Refinement Heavenly Tribulation isn't easy to overcome."

Although Yun Qingjue possesses extraordinary talent, he is not very confident about breaking through to the Void Refinement stage.

This step has stumped countless Spirit Transformation cultivators.

"If you need anything, you can apply to the sect. I'll give you an advance of 500,000 contribution points," Chen Feng said slowly, picking up the teacup on the table.

Upon hearing this, Yun Qingjue immediately stood up. "Thank you, Sect Master!"

Contribution points are undoubtedly the most valuable thing in the Xingfeng Sect.

Five hundred thousand contribution points are enough for her to exchange for a few more spiritual items that allow her to comprehend the laws of Principle.

Despite being an elder of the Xingfeng Sect, Yun Qingjue only receives two thousand contribution points annually. He can only earn a large number of contribution points by making outstanding contributions.

"Breakthrough sooner will also increase the sect's strength. Besides, these contribution points aren't a gift; they're just an advance. You'll have to pay them back after you break through. By the way, I still don't know what Principle you've comprehended."

Yun Qingjue did not hide anything:

"What I have comprehended is the Principle space."

Chen Feng immediately looked surprised. "It seems I underestimated you."

There are very few cultivators who can comprehend the Principle of space, even among those at the Void Refinement stage.

He thought for a moment, then took out the spatial essence he had obtained earlier. "I'll lend you this for a while to meditate on."

Upon seeing the spatial origin before her, Yun Qingjue was immediately startled. "This is..."

For Yun Qingjue, who had comprehended the Principle of space, she immediately sensed the rich aura of the Principle space within the origin of space.

Even the threads of Principle within her Primordial Spirit reacted intensely.

"This is the origin of space, something I obtained by chance. Of course, I'm only lending it to you to comprehend, not giving it to you directly."

Although Chen Feng was generous, he wasn't generous enough to give Yun Qingjue the origin of the space; he merely lent it to her for comprehension.

Yun Qingjue bowed again:

"Qingjue will never forget the sect leader's kindness."

Yun Qingjue bowed very solemnly this time. Even if the origin of this space was only for her to comprehend, it was still a great opportunity for her.

Chen Feng smiled and said, "Your early breakthrough to the Void Refinement stage would be the best reward for me."

Yun Qingjue was about to speak when Chen Feng, who was sitting in front of her, suddenly changed his expression.

An extremely terrifying aura emanated from Chen Feng.

"Sect Master!" Yun Qingjue's face turned pale instantly; she had been affected by the aura emanating from Chen Feng.

Chen Feng looked at Yun Qingjue and said:

"I have to go now, could you please tell Feng Nuo for me?"

After saying that, Chen Feng disappeared from the spot.

Seeing Chen Feng suddenly disappear, Yun Qingjue's expression also turned serious.

He rarely saw Chen Feng with such a solemn expression; something serious must have happened.

Furthermore, the aura that Chen Feng just emitted didn't seem to be at the Spirit Transformation stage.

But how many years have passed? She still remembers that a hundred years ago, Chen Feng was only at the early stage of the Spirit Transformation.

In just one hundred years, Chen Feng broke through from the Spirit Transformation to the Void Refinement stage.

This cultivation speed is simply astonishing.

Yun Qingjue shook his head. "Perhaps I'm mistaken."

She, at the peak of the Spirit Transformation stage, had the deepest understanding of how difficult the Void Refinement stage was; just comprehending and integrating the Principle required an unknown amount of time.

Moreover, breaking through from the early stage of Spirit Transformation to the Void Refinement stage is simply a pipe dream.

Outside the continent of Mingzhou, somewhere in the starry sky.

Chen Feng appeared here.

Not far in front of him was an enormous eyeball.

These eyeballs are transparent; even a cultivator at the Void Refinement stage would likely not be able to detect them if they got close.

Only someone with Divine Sense far exceeding the Void Refinement level like Chen Feng could detect it.

When Chen Feng suddenly appeared, Yanqiu was clearly taken aback for a moment.

I've only just arrived in the starry sky near the Underworld Continent, how did Chen Feng appear?

Moreover, he didn't even realize how Chen Feng had appeared.

Your eyes were just about to open.

But Chen Feng had already made his move. He appeared in front of the eyeball in an instant and then threw a punch!

The surrounding starry sky instantly distorted.

This distortion is not in space, but in spacetime!

Chen Feng's punch had already touched upon the level of space and time.

This punch not only distorted the starry sky, but even the surrounding time seemed to slow down; this was an effect that only occurred when power broke through a certain limit.

The reason Chen Feng attacked immediately was because he sensed the danger posed by the eyeball.

In his Divine Sense, this eyeball was far more dangerous than Li Songxuan, whom he had encountered before. The oppressive feeling it exuded was something that only someone at the half-step Dao Integration stage could possess.

It is very likely a true being who has attained perfect harmony with the Dao!

The sudden appearance of a being at the Dao Integration level near the Underworld Continent is clearly suspicious.

If such a being were to attack the Underworld Continent, the entire continent would likely be destroyed in an instant.

Sensing the terrifying power of Chen Feng's punch, their eyes widened in surprise.

Black light flashed in its pupils, and then dark energy filled the surrounding starry sky.

This dark energy formed a huge black sphere that enveloped the eyeball.

The fist collided with the black ball.

Everything around us instantly began to melt away!

This dissolution is not limited to space and matter; even the threads of the natural Principle that exist around us begin to disappear.

The clash of their powers has damaged the very foundation of the Principle governing the Dinghai Star Region.
