Concubine

In the starry sky hundreds of thousands of miles away from the continent of Mingzhou.

A French ship is speeding across the starry sky.

This magic ship is transparent, and even a Void Refinement level expert would have difficulty detecting it unless they got close.

Inside the French ship's attic.

Xi Qingxu was sitting in the main seat in Nagasaki, with four Void Refinement cultivators standing below her.

These four cultivators at the Void Refinement stage were all her disciples.

"Master, there's no need for you to personally deal with a mere Void Refinement faction. The four of us are sufficient."

The speaker was a handsome young man named He Tongguang, Xi Qingxu's eldest disciple, who possessed the cultivation level of the peak of the Void Refinement stage.

"Yes, the strength of the Xingfeng Sect lies in its special treasures. As long as a few of us sneak in and kill all the high-ranking members of the Xingfeng Sect, we'll be fine."

Another person spoke up; this was a glamorous woman, wearing only a thin veil that covered her private parts.

This woman is Xin Cai'er, Xi Qingxu's second disciple, and her strength is at the late stage of the Void Refinement realm.

Among the nine star domains, Lingxi Star Domain is relatively weak, with only tide Qingxu reaching the half-step Dao Integration level.

Although there are more than twenty Void Refinement cultivators in the Lingxi Star Region, it is far inferior to that of other star regions.

Because taking the half-step to Dao attainment is extremely difficult.

Without an extraordinary fortuitous opportunity, it would be impossible to condense a Dao Seed. In the tens of thousands of years of the entire Lingxi Starfield, only Xi Qingxu has achieved the half-step Dao Integration.

tide Qingxu glanced at the group:

"If it were really that simple, this defensive line wouldn't have taken so long to break through. This Underworld Continent used to be the territory of the Yin Corpse Sect. For the Xingfeng Sect to be able to destroy this sect, they must have at least two Void Refinement cultivators. They might even have some trump cards up their sleeves."

Upon hearing tide Qingxu's words, the group fell silent.

tide Qingxu then leaned back in the chair, placing her long legs on the table.

"Besides, I can guarantee that my intervention will be foolproof. The sooner we deal with the Xingfeng Sect, the less support Cang Yuelan will have. By the way, has there been any news from the front lines?"

He Tongguang swallowed hard as he looked at tide Qingxu's legs, and respectfully replied:

"Reporting to Master, Elder Qian and the others have already engaged Cang Yuelan in battle. Even if Xingfeng Sect sends a request for reinforcements, Cang Yuelan will definitely be unable to spare the time."

tide Qingxu nodded. "That's good. We must break through this defense line within half a month."

He Tongguang respectfully said, "Master was truly wise. He didn't choose to deal with Cang Jilan back then. I heard that Li Songxuan has already made his move, and the situation there isn't good."

tide Qingxu brushed a strand of hair from her forehead and said with a light laugh:

"Yuan Qingfeng and his companion are quite strong. As long as they are willing to pay a certain price, taking down Li Songxuan shouldn't be too difficult."

Xi Qingxu was quite pleased with her choice to deal with Cang Yuelan that day. If she hadn't spoken up so quickly, she probably would have had to deal with the tough defense line of Cang Jilan instead.

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out in the room:

"Li Songxuan? Where is he now?"

The sudden sound startled everyone present, and they all turned to look at the long table in the corner of the room.

A young man in white was sitting at the table.

The young man was gazing at everyone in the room with eyes as calm and unwavering as still water.

He Tongguang was startled; "Who are you?"

This is tide Qingxu's pavilion, protected by protective barriers both inside and out. Yet, someone has silently appeared in the room!

He Tongguang then turned his gaze to his master, Xi Qingxu.

At this moment, Xi Qingxu's expression changed from lazy to solemn.

This made He Tongguang realize that the newcomer's strength was likely at the same level as his master's.

Thinking of this, He Tongguang couldn't help but take a step back and move closer to tide Qingxu.

The others did the same thing.

Xi Qingxu sat up straight and stared at Chen Feng:

Who are you, fellow Daoist?

tide Qingxu's expression was extremely solemn, because even she hadn't noticed when the young man in front of her had entered the pavilion.

Moreover, when she used her Divine Sense to probe him, she was unable to detect his cultivation level; the young man before her was just like an ordinary mortal.

There are only two possibilities in this situation: either the other party has cultivated a secret technique to block the Divine Sense of others, or the other party's strength far exceeds hers.

Chen Feng looked at Xi Qingxu:

"Who am I? Isn't this the place you came to find me?"

"Are you Chen Beijin, the sect leader of the Xingfeng Sect?" Xi Qingxu immediately guessed the other party's identity.

Before dealing with the Xingfeng Sect, he naturally investigated some intelligence, the most mysterious of which was Chen Beijin, the sect leader of the Xingfeng Sect.

The opponent is the strongest expert in the Xingfeng Sect, and is extremely mysterious. Their people still haven't been able to find out the opponent's exact cultivation level.

But tide Qingxu was, after all, only at the half-step Dao Integration stage, so she quickly regained her composure and said with a smile:

"I truly did not expect that the Xingfeng Sect would have such a powerful expert as you. I was presumptuous in this matter. I will leave with my men now!"

tide Qingxu knew how to advance and retreat. The other party was able to enter the pavilion silently, so they must be a strong person of the same level as her.

The Xingfeng Sect has a half-step Dao Integration level expert, which is beyond her ability to deal with alone.

Chen Feng said calmly:

"I'd really like to know, where is Li Songxuan, whom you just mentioned?"

tide Qingxu took a deep breath and then said:

"Li Songxuan has led the Void Refinement cultivators of the Weiyang Star Region to join the Fifth Holy Son, Cang Yuelan. If you wish to find him, you can go to Cang Yuelan."

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng nodded. "I see."

tide Qingxu spoke up, "Fellow Daoist, is there anything else?"

"There is indeed one more thing." Chen Feng stood up at this moment.

"What is it?" Xi Qingxu asked Chen Feng.

Chen Feng grinned. "May I borrow your head?"

Upon hearing this, tide Qingxu immediately understood.

The person before her had no intention of a peaceful resolution, so she didn't waste any words and instantly released her domain of Principle.

In an instant, she released her own domain.

A domain is a special Divine Ability that can only be mastered after one has reached the halfway point of Dao Integration.

Within the domain constructed by a half-step Dao Integration expert, all other Principle are suppressed, and the power they unleash is less than one-tenth of their original strength.

Furthermore, the power of its own Principle will be amplified.

As the domain took shape, towering waves appeared out of nowhere, and the starry sky within a vast expanse instantly transformed into an ocean.

Every drop of water that makes up this vast ocean contains the power of an extremely terrifying water element.

He Tongguang and everyone on the French ship fled immediately.

They were not suppressed within the domain and easily left the area covered by it.

Once outside the area of effect, Xin Cai'er said solemnly:

"This Xingfeng Sect actually has a half-step Dao Integration level expert! I wonder if Master can handle this person!"

Xin Cai'er and the others couldn't help but feel a little scared. Fortunately, it was their master who came this time. If they had gone to the Xingfeng Sect, they would probably have only perished.

He Tongguang's face also showed shock, but he quickly calmed down:

"Don't worry, Master has directly used his domain. Every drop of this ocean now contains extremely terrifying Power of Principle. Once trapped, even a half-step Dao Integration cultivator would find it difficult to escape!"

Looking at the boundless ocean in the distance, Xin Cai'er's worries eased.

Their master controlled the Water Dao Seed, and once the domain was fully unleashed, its power was extremely terrifying.

Within the domain, countless seawaters were converging towards Chen Feng, washing away the space in their wake, leaving it utterly empty.

All other Principle within this area were suppressed, with only the power of the Principle of water continuously amplifying.

On the sea, Xi Qingxu, dressed in a light blue dress, is stepping on a wave.

She looked at Chen Feng, who was being submerged by the sea, and spoke coldly:

"Fellow Daoist, it seems you haven't been at the half-step Dao Integration stage for long. If you retreat now, I can reclaim my domain!"

The battles between those at the half-step Dao Integration stage are all about the clash between their respective domains.

If Chen Feng had also released his domain when she released it, the two domains would have balanced each other.

However, Chen Feng did not release his domain.

In this way, her Divine Ability and methods were greatly enhanced, while Chen Feng could only be trapped within her domain.

Although this time will not be long, it is a battle between those who are halfway to the Dao Integration stage, and the outcome can often be decided in just a few breaths.

However, despite her advantages, it would be very difficult for her to kill someone who had just reached the half-step Dao Integration stage.

If the other party tries to escape at some cost, she won't be able to stop them.

"Hahaha."

A laugh came from the center of the waves, and the laugh carried very far.

tide Qingxu frowned. "What are you laughing at?"

"So this is what a half-step Dao Integration is. It only affects the Principle and space of a certain area. I used to think that a half-step Dao Integration was very powerful."

Chen Feng's voice slowly drifted out.

tide Qingxu snorted coldly, "Arrogant!"

As tide Qingxu finished speaking, the surrounding seawater immediately rose up, transforming into countless water arrows!

There are millions of these water rockets, densely packed together.

Water arrows hurtled toward Chen Feng's location from all directions.

The water arrows quickly converged as they sped along, forming dozens of rivers of water.

The river of arrows, like a long dragon, hurtled towards Chen Feng!

Each of these water arrows contained extremely terrifying water Principle.

When faced with these water arrows, a cultivator at the Refinement stage would have their Primordial Spirit and physical body pierced in an instant.

This is also Xi Qingxu's signature Divine Ability!

Back when she was in the Refining Void Realm, she used this Divine Ability to kill many cultivators of the same realm. After reaching the Half-Step Dao Integration Realm, this Divine Ability was amplified dozens of times.

The long river formed by the converging water arrows had now fallen on Chen Feng.

In an instant, Chen Feng was engulfed by a rain of arrows.

Each time the water arrow struck Chen Feng, the surrounding starry sky trembled violently, and the aura of the Principle of Water almost filled the entire starry sky.

However, there was no smile on tide Qingxu's face.

Because she didn't sense that Chen Feng had used any Principle, nor had he even deployed his domain.

This means that the opponent is simply passively taking hits without even making a defensive move, which is very strange.

The next second, Xi Qingxu understood why Chen Feng had defended.

Despite the endless barrage of water arrows, Chen Feng remained motionless, the water arrows striking him like ordinary raindrops, leaving no trace of injury.

"How... how is this possible!" Xi Qingxu's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief.

She even felt her eyes were playing tricks on her, so she used her Divine Sense to observe more carefully.

However, the scene before them was not an illusion, but a real event.

"Forget it, this is boring," Chen Feng said calmly.

As Chen Feng's voice fell, the seawater that had covered tens of thousands of miles of starry sky seemed to suddenly freeze, no longer flowing at all.

Immediately afterwards, the seawater began to dissipate rapidly at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Xi Qingxu, who was far away, suddenly felt a weight on her body, as if an extremely vast force was pressing down on her.

"This is... the power of the stars!" tide Qingxu's pupils contracted sharply.

As a half-step Dao Integration Realm expert who had lived for tens of thousands of years, she naturally sensed the power enveloping her immediately.

This vast and ancient aura is undoubtedly the power of the stars!

Xi Qingxu wanted to break free from the shackles of this power, but as soon as the Dao Seed within her released the Power of Principle, it was immediately suppressed back into her body by the power of the surrounding stars.

Faced with such power, her Power of Principle was like a mouse encountering a cat.

"How do you possess so much stellar power! Who are you?"

The composure on tide Qingxu's face vanished completely at this moment, replaced only by shock.

The power of stars has already touched upon the origin of the universe, so it is not surprising that it can suppress the Principle.

She had seen quite a lot before; for example, some formations and special restrictions would borrow the power of the stars, and even some treasures could release this power.

But that only applies to formations and Law Treasure; how could the human race possibly control the power of the stars?

Besides, even if she had mastered the power of the stars, she was only at the half-step Dao Integration stage!

The power of the stars that could suppress her Principle must be immense.

The higher you stand, the more you see; it was precisely because tide Qingxu understood the power of the stars that she felt so astonished.

At this moment, Chen Feng had already arrived in front of Xi Qingxu from a distance.

Looking at Xi Qingxu in front of him, Chen Feng felt quite emotional.

Back then, Li Songxuan, who was only half a step into the Dao realm, severely injured him with just one move.

And now, even a powerhouse of this level can't break free from his Star Domain.

This truly left Chen Feng feeling somewhat wistful.

"Senior! Spare my life! If you had known I was from the Xingfeng Sect, I would never have dared to offend you. It was Fen Wuji who sent me!"

tide Qingxu panicked completely. At this moment, she fully understood that no matter how the other party had mastered the power of the stars.

One thing is certain: the opponent's strength has already surpassed the half-step Dao Integration level and reached the true Dao Integration level.

Only a truly enlightened being could suppress her so easily.

"Fen Wuji? Who is that?" Chen Feng asked, a look of confusion on his face.

Xi Qingxu quickly recounted the whole story, but when it came to dealing with the Xingfeng Sect, she pushed all the blame onto Fen Wuji.

"I see." Chen Feng looked enlightened.

tide Qingxu spoke again, "Senior, my Star Domain Ancestor is also a being at the Dao Integration level. Please, Senior, spare this junior for the sake of my Ancestor!"

"Furthermore, if you think highly of me, I would be willing to serve you as a concubine, and from now on I will serve you wholeheartedly!"

tide Qingxu's survival instinct was undisguised.

She must have endured countless hardships to reach this level of cultivation, which makes her even more afraid of death.

Chen Feng glanced at Xi Qingxu's graceful figure and shook his head:

"Sorry, I don't like having an old woman tens of thousands of years old as a concubine!"

After saying that, Chen Feng threw a punch!

The punch seemed ordinary, but when it landed on tide Qingxu, it shattered her physical body.

A materialized Primordial Spirit immediately appeared in the arena.

At the location of the Primordial Spirit's chest, a seed emitting a blue light floated.

This is precisely the Water Dao Seed that Xi Qingxu has cultivated for ten thousand years.

Xi Qingxu, now only possessing her Primordial Spirit, was about to speak, but Chen Feng didn't give her a chance at all.

He grabbed Xi Qingxu's Primordial Spirit and crushed it instantly.
