Zhengjiao's Stubbornness

The moment Xi Qingxu's primordial Primordial Spirit dissipated, Chen Feng made a gesture with his right hand, and the azure Dao Seed landed in his palm.

Looking at the Dao Seed in his hand, Chen Feng slowly spoke:

"The half-step Dao Integration is indeed different from the ordinary Void Refinement stage. Even if the Primordial Spirit is gone, a portion of the consciousness can still parasitize within this Dao Seed."

Chen Feng had considered imprisoning Xi Qingxu's primordial Primordial Spirit and then sending her back to Canglan Star to kill her.

In this way, the other party's Primordial Spirit energy can be fed back to Canglan Star.

However, he already knew that at the half-step Dao Integration level, the Primordial Spirit had completely merged with the Principle.

Once the primordial Primordial Spirit of a powerhouse of this level is destroyed, it will immediately be absorbed by the consciousness of the star field. Cultivation stars cannot absorb this kind of Primordial Spirit energy.

Moreover, such powerful beings are very difficult to kill. For example, Xi Qingxu's physical body and soul were both shattered by him, yet she was still able to parasitize a wisp of her consciousness into this Dao Seed.

If his Divine Sense hadn't far surpassed that of a half-step Dao Integration cultivator, he probably wouldn't have been able to detect it.

This consciousness is extremely faint, but if tide Qingxu were given thousands of years...

Perhaps this wisp of consciousness can slowly recover, and then try to possess another body to rebuild its strength.

This is the terrifying power of high-level cultivators; even a Primordial Spirit or a strand of their consciousness can be reborn.

To truly destroy someone, one must completely obliterate their Primordial Spirit and physical body, just like Chen Feng did.

Chen Feng gripped the Dao Seed and squeezed it hard, crushing it instantly.

tide Qingxu's consciousness, along with the Dao Seed, vanished into thin air.

For other cultivators, the Dao Seed is actually a valuable resource for comprehending the laws of Principle.

Especially for cultivators who share the same Principle, the speed of comprehension can be increased several times if they borrow the Dao Seed of another.

But Chen Feng wouldn't leave this hidden danger, so he simply crushed the Dao Seed along with it.

After crushing the Dao Seed, Chen Feng immediately pointed his finger at the starry sky in front of him.

Soon, ripples appeared in the starry sky before him.

Immediately afterwards, a space the size of a football field came into view.

This space is tide Qingxu's mustard seed space.

When Chen Feng was at the Spirit Transformation stage, the only way he could obtain the Void Refinement cultivator's mustard seed space was through coercion.

But now he has reached the Refinement of Emptiness level and understands what the Mustard Seed Space is all about.

Mustard seed space is essentially a part of the universe, but cultivators at the Void Refinement stage can use certain methods to extract this part and then imprint it with their own life mark.

From that moment on, this space belonged solely to him.

Once this characteristic is understood, the mustard seed space of a Void Refinement cultivator can be forcibly opened.

Simply by removing this life imprint from the other person's Primordial Spirit, one can open their mustard seed space.

Stripping a living being of their mark is not something that can be done simply by killing them.

It requires absolute overwhelming power, preventing the opponent from even having the chance to destroy their own life imprint.

Just now, when Chen Feng crushed Xi Qingxu's Primordial Spirit, he forcibly stripped Xi Qingxu of her life imprint.

It was only through this life imprint that he was able to locate the woman's mustard seed space.

Chen Feng didn't examine the contents of the mustard seed space carefully; instead, he took everything inside.

On the other side.

He Tongguang and Xin Cai'er are on the run for their lives!

When they saw Chen Feng shatter their master's physical body with a single punch, He Tongguang and the other three were immediately terrified and chose to flee without hesitation.

Even after they had escaped a considerable distance, the group remained silent.

The scene of tide Qingxu's physical body being shattered was truly horrifying.

In their hearts, Xi Qingxu has always been very powerful.

Back when their Lingxi Starfield was in turmoil, tide Qingxu single-handedly suppressed all the Void Refinement cultivators within the starfield.

It can be said that tide Qingxu's prestige in the Lingxi Star Region has even surpassed that of their Dao Integration Ancestor, who rarely appears in public.

Seeing their faith shattered by a single punch, one can imagine the immense impact it had on them.

Xin Cai'er, standing beside her, asked with a pale face:

"Senior brother, will Chen Beijin follow us?"

He Tongguang didn't answer that question, but instead asked, "Did you deliver the message I asked you to to Senior Fen and the others?"

"The message has already been sent, but even if Senior Fen and the others arrive now, it will probably take at least half a month. We..." Xin Cai'er stopped mid-sentence.

Because not far in front of them, Chen Feng was standing there, and he seemed to have been waiting there for a long time.

Upon seeing Chen Feng, He Tongguang and the others immediately stopped, their faces filled with fear.

None of them expected that Chen Feng would catch up so quickly.

He Tongguang looked at Chen Feng and shouted:

"Senior! I am willing to join the Xingfeng Sect. Please spare my life. Furthermore, I can take you back to the Lingxi Star Region to take over our sect's treasury!"

"All resources of my Lingxi Star Region are at your disposal, Senior!"

He Tongguang's words immediately caused the other two Void Refinement cultivators to frown.

"He Tongguang, what are you saying? Our master has treated you well, and now you're going to betray our entire star field?" one person said angrily.

However, He Tongguang completely ignored the murderous glares from his two junior brothers; he wasn't that loyal.

What's the point of being stubborn in front of someone who's only halfway to the Dao Integration Realm?

Preserving your own life is the most important thing.

"Senior, we have already notified Senior Fen and the others. Although you are only at the half-step Dao Integration stage, can you stop Senior Fen?"

"Senior Fen has condensed two Dao Seeds; there are almost no one among the half-step Dao Integration cultivators who can rival him, not to mention that the Fire Brahma Star Domain has two more half-step Dao Integration cultivators!"

"If you're willing to let me off the hook, I can immediately use Secret Method to retract the message. What do you say?"

It must be said that He Tongguang's words were extremely sharp.

He first tried to curry favor with Chen Feng by mentioning the benefits within the Lingxi Star Region, and then brought up the matter of sending a message to Fen Wuji, hoping to put pressure on Chen Feng.

If it were any other half-step Dao Integration cultivator, they might actually have let this person go.

Unfortunately, he encountered Chen Feng.

Chen Feng completely ignored He Tongguang's words.

The surrounding starry sky was instantly covered by his star domain.

He Tongguang and the others immediately felt a force pressing down on them.

This oppressive force caused their Primordial Spirit and Principle to fall silent.

The next second, bang bang bang!

Four explosions followed.

The physical bodies of He Tongguang and the other three vanished into nothingness in an instant, and their four Primordial Spirit were also drawn by a force and flew to Chen Feng's front.

The four people who were left with only their Primordial Spirit stared at Chen Feng with horrified eyes.

Instant kill!

The four of them were instantly killed before they even had a chance to fight back.

Although those at the half-step Dao Integration stage were powerful, they had witnessed it firsthand.

Even if tide Qingxu attacked them, she couldn't possibly kill them so easily.

They are Void Refinement cultivators who have mastered the Principle, not some common cabbage on the street.

But it was nowhere near as shocking as Chen Feng's move.

Chen Feng didn't even notice the shock on their faces; he simply put away the four Primordial Spirit.

Previously, He Tongguang had mentioned going to the Lingxi Star Region to plunder resources. Although Chen Feng was somewhat tempted, he decided against it after thinking about it.

The foundation of a star system is not so simple.

Moreover, there are also beings at the Dao Integration level in the Lingxi Starfield.

He didn't want to confront a being at the Dao Integration level directly for the time being.

As for Fen Wuji, whom He Tongguang mentioned, Chen Feng didn't take him seriously at all.

He had already fought against a half-step Dao Integration expert, so even if Fen Wuji condensed two Dao Seeds, it posed no threat to him.

If the other party dares to cause trouble, he wouldn't mind killing a few more half-step Dao Integration cultivators.

After taking care of everything, Chen Feng disappeared from the spot.

Canglan Star, Xingfeng Sect Headquarters, Treasure Vault.

Chen Feng appeared here.

For Chen Feng now, returning to Canglan Star is just a matter of a moment.

The scroll's teleportation ability allows him to travel to any location in the Dinghai Star Region.

Even the headquarters of the Xingfeng Sect vault, which was shrouded in layers of formations, could be entered silently by him.

The moment Chen Feng appeared in the treasure vault, the monitoring equipment and psionic sensors inside immediately detected Chen Feng.

But these devices only scanned once and then did nothing else.

Taiyi took over the security equipment of the Xingfeng Sect, and Chen Feng had the highest authority in the Xingfeng Sect, so Taiyi naturally wouldn't issue any alarms.

Chen Feng took out all the spoils he had obtained from Xi Qingxu.

There's quite a lot of stuff: over 300,000 spirit stones, five Innate Spirit Treasure, and some spiritual objects that allow one to comprehend the Principle.

There were also a bunch of miscellaneous items, such as some rare materials and some special ores.

There are many people Chen Feng has never seen before.

Chen Feng didn't examine it in detail; he simply put away the Yuan Stones and placed the rest of the items into the Xingfeng Sect's treasury.

Subsequently, Chen Feng released the Primordial Spirit of He Tongguang and the other three, and then forcibly stripped away their life imprints.

Then, he easily opened four mustard seed spaces.

Compared to tide Qingxu, these four were poorer, each with only tens of thousands of spirit stones, with He Tongguang having the most at fifty thousand.

"Senior, spare me! Spare me!" He Tongguang, now only Primordial Spirit, kept begging for mercy.

Chen Feng completely ignored him and pointed with his finger.

The four people's Primordial Spirit immediately exploded, then transformed into a stream of pure energy that dissipated into the world.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth within the entire Xingfeng Sect began to rise rapidly at this moment.

Many cultivators within the Xingfeng Sect immediately noticed this change.

"The environment is changing again!"

"Could it be that the sect leader has returned?"

"It must be the sect leader. Only he can capture the Primordial Spirit of Spirit Transformation cultivator and use it as fertilizer!"

"I haven't seen the sect leader for decades. I really hope to see him again."

The cultivators of the Xingfeng Sect were all discussing it animatedly.

The people of the Xingfeng Sect have become accustomed to this sudden increase in vitality and Spiritual Qi.

Over the past hundred years, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi planet Canglan has changed every so often.

Everyone knew that this was Primordial Spirit that their sect leader had captured from who-knows-where.

At this moment, a streak of light flew out from behind the Xingfeng Sect, but it was stopped halfway through its flight.

Two women with slender figures stopped Liu Guang.

"Why are you stopping me?" The streak of light was none other than Zheng Jiao.

Decades have passed, and Zheng Jiao has reached the peak of the Spirit Transformation stage, just one step away from the Void Refinement stage.

He is now comprehending the Principle and attempting to break through to the Void Refinement stage.

Those who stopped the cunning were Beaver and Ye Yuting.

Beaver and Ye Yuting returned to Canglan Star decades ago to take charge, and did not participate in the affairs of the Underworld Continent.

This is because both of them are currently in a crucial period of cultivation and will soon break through to the Spirit Transformation, so they stayed on Canglan Star to cultivate.

Beaver said, "Senior, you should know where the sect leader is, right?"

Ye Yuting, standing beside him, also looked at Chen Feng with expectant eyes.

After sensing the changes in the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, the two women immediately emerged from seclusion.

They naturally knew that this was Chen Feng's doing.

Chen Feng comes and goes without a trace, so it won't be easy for the two women to find Chen Feng within the Xingfeng Sect.

Zhengjiao curled his lip. "Come with me."

Zheng Jiao naturally knew where Chen Feng was.

He and Chen Feng had long ago established a master-servant contract, and there was a certain degree of connection between them.

Soon, Zheng Jiao led the two women to the entrance of the Xingfeng Sect's treasure vault.

The group had barely arrived when Chen Feng emerged from the treasure vault.

Upon seeing Chen Feng, Beaver and Ye Yuting quickly stepped forward and bowed.

"Greetings, Sect Master!"

Looking at the two women, Chen Feng smiled and said, "It's been a long time. It seems your cultivation has improved as well."

Chen Feng could tell that both women had reached the Nascent Soul Great Perfection.

Ye Yuting smiled sweetly and said:

"It's all thanks to the resources within the sect. We have no shortage of any kind of elixirs now, and we can easily exchange them using contribution points."

Beaver then asked:

"Sect Master, did you capture a few more Spirit Transformation because of the sudden surge in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth just now?"

Chen Feng nodded. "Not Spirit Transformation, but four Void Refinement cultivators."

Both Beaver and Ye Yuting were stunned upon hearing this.

The corner of Zhengjiao's mouth twitched involuntarily, even though he hadn't said a word.

He discovered that every time he saw Chen Feng after a long interval, Chen Feng's strength would increase by a significant level.

Previously, Chen Feng could only capture the Primordial Spirit of Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivators, but now even Void Refinement cultivators have become objects that Chen Feng can manipulate at will.

Those were four Void Refinement cultivators, captured so easily, and Chen Feng seemed to do it with ease.

Zheng Jiao felt that he would probably never catch up with Chen Feng in his lifetime.

Chen Feng then turned his gaze to Zheng Jiao: "How have you been lately?"

Zhengjiao replied, "What else can I do? I just cultivate every day."

"I have some news for you. There's been news about Yin Yin."

"Really? Where is she?" Zheng Jiao jumped up upon hearing this, then ran to Chen Feng's side, looking at him expectantly.

For Zheng Jiao, the person he was closest to in the entire Xingfeng Sect was Yin Yin.

But Yin Yin had been missing for decades, which saddened Zheng Jiao greatly.

Chen Feng said, "She's doing well now, but she can't meet with us for some reason. She'll be back in a while."

"Is she in trouble?" Zheng Jiao asked Chen Feng.

"It's a minor problem, I can handle it," Chen Feng replied without changing his expression.

Zhengjiao pondered for a moment, then said:

"I want to break through to the Void Refinement stage, help me!"

Zhengjiao's eyes were exceptionally determined; at this moment, he felt utterly weak!

After entering the Dinghai Star Region from Canglan Star, he was basically unable to help with anything. In the past, Chen Feng would take him along.

But ever since Xingfeng Sect entered Dinghai Star Region, Chen Feng has stopped asking him to join them.

He knew very well that this was because he was too weak.

The enemy Chen Feng is facing now could probably kill him with a single move.

Therefore, Zheng Jiao was eager to break through to the Void Refinement stage, and he knew that only Chen Feng could help him now.

Chen Feng naturally saw through Zheng Jiao's determination, and after hesitating for a moment, he said:

"Actually, you don't need to rush. Just cultivate slowly."

Even if Zheng Jiao breaks through to the Void Refinement stage, so what?

The eyeballs following Yin Yin were all beings at the Dao Integration level.

Yin Yin is definitely a Dao Integration level being, and not just any ordinary Dao Integration being.

If an entity of this level truly encounters trouble, it's beyond the capabilities of the cunning and cunning to resolve.

Chen Feng didn't want to be too blunt, lest he offend Zheng Jiao.
