Escape!
Jueyuan Tianzun and the others were also surprised to see that the Dao Crystal had been intercepted.
No one expected that there would be someone hiding in the shadows.
The figure looked at the Dao Crystal in his hand and said to Meng Jingxian, "Brother Meng, I will accept this."
The person who made the move was naturally Chen Feng.
Upon seeing the Crystal of Dao appear, Chen Feng immediately made a move to snatch it.
He originally didn't want to get involved in this battle between celestial beings.
But there was nothing he could do. As soon as the crystal appeared, his Dao Fruit felt a strong urge to enter, clearly indicating that this item had a significant effect on his Dao Fruit.
His spiritual attainment is still dimmed because of the last time he modified the painting.
He had a gut feeling that this item could definitely restore his Dao fruit.
He certainly wouldn't miss such fortuitous opportunity.
"You're courting death!" Meng Jingxian roared in fury, and a terrifying power of the world pressed down on Chen Feng from all directions.
When the Celestial Venerable makes a move, his power is astonishing!
Chen Feng immediately felt a terrifying force approaching.
He dared not be careless and quickly activated all the star arrays within his body.
With the power of the stars in the heavens supporting him, Chen Feng's physical body emitted a faint starlight.
Boom!
The power of the world struck Chen Feng.
Centered on him, the surrounding space-time collapsed instantly. The terrifying power dimmed the starlight on his body, and he himself was forced to retreat dozens of miles.
Feeling the stinging pain coming from his flesh, Chen Feng was terrified:
"Is this the power of the Celestial Venerable?!"
He hadn't felt a stinging pain in his body for a long time; Chen Feng couldn't even remember the last time.
The force that bombarded him made him feel as if an entire star field was pressing down on him.
Keep in mind that he had activated the entire star array at this moment, and he had also advanced to the Dao Integration Realm.
I have already achieved perfect control over my physical body.
Even so, he still felt physical pain.
At this moment, Chen Feng realized the gap between himself and the Celestial Venerable; he could not possibly defeat an old monster at the Celestial Venerable level.
They are far inferior in terms of strength.
Compared to Chen Feng's surprise, Meng Jingxian was shocked.
That attack just now was launched in anger. Let alone Chen Feng, a cultivator at the Dao Integration Realm, even a Heavenly Venerable expert of the same realm could be injured if he wasn't careful.
But Chen Feng appeared to have no injuries, only that the light emanating from his body had dimmed considerably.
"Such powerful stellar energy!" Li Shijian exclaimed, his eyes gleaming.
At his level, he naturally understood the source of Chen Feng's power.
The stellar power that continuously flowed into Chen Feng's body from nothingness was so powerful that even he was somewhat alarmed.
Meng Jingxian stared intently at Chen Feng:
Who exactly are you?
Although Meng Jingxian had previously sensed that Chen Feng was extraordinary, she only considered Chen Feng to be a Dao Integration cultivator with some skills.
But Chen Feng's performance just now has shown that even if the opponent is only at the Dao Integration stage, he already possesses certain means to contend with a Heavenly Venerable.
When did such a figure appear in the Xuanhuang Realm?
If such a person existed, how could he not know about him?
Chen Feng didn't explain anything to Meng Jingxian. He simply put away the Dao Crystal and fled in one direction.
Seeing this, Meng Jingxian's face turned cold. "Where do you think you're going!"
After saying that, Meng Jingxian chased after him, and Li Shijian and the others followed suit.
That crystal looked like a treasure, so they naturally wouldn't miss such fortuitous opportunity.
Moreover, they are now even more curious about Chen Feng.
First it was Meng Jingxian, and then this mysterious cultivator; there have been far too many unexpected developments this time.
Although Chen Feng was very fast, his speed was still insufficient compared to that of the several Celestial Venerables.
They had only been out for a short time when Meng Jingxian and the others caught up with them.
Seeing this, Chen Feng immediately turned around and gathered the vast power of the stars within his body to unleash a punch!
The force of this punch was astonishing; the surrounding space and time seemed to distort at that moment.
Because of Chen Feng's amazing performance before, none of them dared to be careless when they saw Chen Feng throw a punch, and they prepared to block the attack.
However, as the force drew closer, they discovered that it possessed no offensive power; it was merely impressive in appearance.
At this moment, everyone realized that Chen Feng was bluffing.
Meng Jingxian was the first to react. He raised his hand and reached out to grab Chen Feng from afar. A phantom hand made of the power of the world pierced through the void and covered Chen Feng.
But at this moment, Chen Feng had already appeared on a streamlined spaceship.
He pulled out the warp drive spaceship when he threw the punch.
He wouldn't fight the four Celestial Venerables here.
He would have a hard time dealing with just one of them, let alone four. Now that he has the benefits, it's natural for him to leave.
Upon seeing Chen Feng standing on a Dharma boat, Meng Jingxian's heart tightened.
Although he didn't know what it was.
But he had a bad feeling; the illusory hand moved even faster.
Chen Feng calmly watched the giant hand about to descend from above his head. Just as the hand was about to reach him...
The warp drive's engines were immediately activated.
In an instant, the warp bubble enveloped the spaceship, and then Chen Feng and the warp spaceship disappeared from the scene.
Boom!
The illusory giant hand descended at this moment, but missed its target, blasting the surrounding chaos into nothingness!
Seeing Chen Feng suddenly disappear, the people in the room immediately used their Divine Sense to search for him.
But there was no trace of Chen Feng anywhere around.
The Heavenly Venerable Jueyuan spoke with a solemn expression, "What level of treasure is this? It can actually escape so far in an instant!"
There are many top-tier flying treasures in the Xuanhuang Realm, but this is the first time he has ever seen one that can cross the detection range of a Celestial Venerable's Divine Sense in an instant.
Even some realm-opening treasures that excel at flight probably don't have this speed.
Li Shijian looked at Jueyuan Tianzun:
"This person was brought by your Blood Demon Palace. Fellow Daoist Jueyuan, don't you know who he is?"
Upon hearing this, Meng Jingxian immediately turned her gaze to Jueyuan Tianzun.
Now he desperately wants to find Chen Feng. Dao Crystal is something he has been coveting for years, and he has been planning for it for a long time.
Success was within reach, but someone else snatched it away.
Anyone in that situation would feel a surge of anger.
The Heavenly Venerable Jueyuan snorted coldly:
"Hmph, what, do you all think he's one of my Blood Demon Palace members? If he were, do you think I'd still be standing here?"
"Then tell me about his origins, fellow Daoist." Li Shijian stared at Jueyuan Tianzun.
The Blood Fiend Celestial Venerable beside him said:
"This person is a cultivator from beyond the realm."
Upon hearing this, everyone's gazes simultaneously turned to Blood Fiend Heavenly Venerable.
Blood Fiend Celestial Venerable said:
He was a person brought by the cold of winter.
Blood Fiend Celestial Venerable recounted Chen Feng's origins in detail, but he did not mention anything about the situation outside the realm.
After hearing Blood Fiend Celestial Venerable's words, Li Shijian's expression darkened:
"So, it turns out that our Three Saints Sect's Dao Integration Master died at this person's hands? He truly hid it well."
Just then, Meng Jingxian suddenly fled into the distance.
Upon seeing this, Blood Fiend Heavenly Venerable immediately tried to intervene, but was stopped by Abyss Heavenly Venerable:
"Let him go. Now is not the time to cause him trouble."
Although the Heavenly Venerable Jueyuan also hated Meng Jingxian, the matter was already settled.
What the Blood Demon Palace needs to do now is to hurry to the boundary wall where the Three Saints Sect is located and compete for the opportunity to go outside the boundary.
Going to cause trouble for Meng Jingxian now would undoubtedly be a waste of their time.
Upon hearing Jueyuan Tianzun's words, Xue Sha Tianzun also abandoned his plan to attack, and then the three of them headed towards the boundary wall where the Three Saints Sect was located.
But Li Shijian was not about to let them pass.
He intervened again, stopping the three of them.
Soon, another battle at the level of a Celestial Venerable began.
The outer layer of the boundary wall.
Meng Jingxian appeared here.
He traveled all the way from the depths of the boundary wall to this place, all in search of Chen Feng.
"Master, which direction did he escape in?" Meng Jingxian asked anxiously in her heart.
He left suddenly because his master said he sensed fluctuations in the spacetime trajectory, which should be the direction Chen Feng escaped in.
"It's still not too late to catch up in the east. It's truly unbelievable. What kind of treasure is that that can generate such a large spacetime fluctuation? If I hadn't observed the Great Dao of Spacetime for a period of time back then, I probably wouldn't have been able to detect it."
The aged voice carried a hint of surprise.
Meng Jingxian immediately set off eastward in pursuit.
"Once I capture this man, I will surely tear him apart and refine his soul! How dare he steal my fortuitous opportunity!" At this moment, Meng Jingxian's hatred for Chen Feng had risen to the same level as that of Dongyuan Tianzun.
He had painstakingly planned and executed his scheme, and if his achievements were stolen from him, even with his calm and collected nature, he would inevitably feel boundless rage.
"Don't worry, as long as this person is still in the Xuanhuang Realm, he can't escape. I underestimated him this time; I didn't expect his Star Power to have reached such a level."
The aged voice was clearly also shocked.
Chen Feng's sudden move caught him off guard.
"Master, he is clearly only at the Dao Integration Realm, so how could he withstand the power of the Heavenly Venerable?" Meng Jingxian asked in confusion.
Meng Jingxian now possessed the strength of a Celestial Venerable and was well aware of the Celestial Venerable's terrifying power.
If it were him, let alone withstand the Heavenly Venerable's attack, he would probably be blasted into dust by the aftershocks if he even got close to the Heavenly Venerable.
The aged voice explained:
"If the power of origin grows to a certain level, it can withstand the power of a Celestial Venerable's world. I have never seen the power of origin that this person possesses before, and it is the most peculiar power of stars. It is truly strange."
"Is the power of stars something special?" Meng Jingxian asked.
"Hmm, only a few special races in the outside world can use this kind of source without any scruples. This is the first time I've seen a human possess this source. I wonder which star system this person comes from."
"No matter what, we must find this person!" A ruthless glint appeared in Meng Jingxian's eyes.
"Although this spacetime trajectory exists for a very short time, it will continue to be generated as long as he is still moving. As long as he stops, we can catch up with him."
Meng Jingxian didn't say anything more, but instead increased her speed even further.
Actually, he still blamed his master. He wanted to attack Chen Feng, but his master stopped him.
If he had forced Chen Feng to reveal his true strength back then, the Dao Crystal would never have been stolen.
On the other side.
Chen Feng was traveling at high speed in his warp-speed spaceship. He had already left the boundary wall and was heading towards the Three Saints Sect.
Inside the spacecraft cabin, Chen Feng sat cross-legged.
At that moment, he Orthodox God alert and observing his surroundings.
When he left earlier, he saw Li Shijian swing a sword at him.
Having witnessed Li Shijian's ability to cut through the future, he knew all too well how terrifying this move was.
Even the Celestial Venerable had his head chopped off if he wasn't careful, let alone him.
Therefore, ever since leaving the boundary, Chen Feng has been using the power of the stars to the fullest extent to defend himself.
Time passed slowly, but there was still no sound from the surroundings.
This made him wonder.
Logically speaking, Li Shijian's "Slay the Future" should have appeared long ago, since it only took effect a few breaths after the opponent attacked Blood Fiend Heavenly Venerable.
But he had been waiting for half an incense stick's time, and the future-ending event still hadn't appeared.
"Could it be that the distance was too great, which is why the 'Slay the Future' technique failed?" Chen Feng couldn't help but wonder.
But he quickly dismissed the idea.
Cutting the Future is clearly a lock-on skill, targeting the target from its future trajectory.
No matter where the target escapes to, any sword strike will be effective regardless of distance.
Shaking his head, Chen Feng abandoned his plan to continue speculating.
Since the "Slay the Future" technique has failed, it's a good thing for him; at least he doesn't have to be on guard all the time.
Although he has a strong self-healing ability, if his head is severed by a sword, it will take him a long time to recover.
Chen Feng then looked outside the warp drive spaceship.
He hadn't noticed it before he advanced to the Dao Integration stage, but now he realizes that the warp drive spaceship actually creates a spacetime trajectory when it moves.
He hadn't discovered this spacetime trajectory before he merged with the Dao.
Chen Feng now understands how spacetime trajectories are generated; warp drive spaceships utilize spacetime in the universe to move at high speeds.
Any matter that disrupts spacetime will leave a trace in the universe.
Although this trace will disappear soon, it can still be tracked down by a Celestial Venerable-level expert.
However, compared to the speed of a warp drive, Chen Feng could still accept this drawback.
He planned to tell Lin Wei and the others about the situation later to see if they had any solutions.
Chen Feng then piloted the warp drive spaceship back towards the Three Saints Sect.
He was certain that Meng Jingxian would definitely come after him.
The other party infiltrated the Blood Demon Palace concealing their identity, presumably for this crystal. And now that he has stolen this fortuitous opportunity, one can imagine how furious Meng Jingxian must be.
The best way to completely get rid of the other party is to return to the Three Saints Sect and then return to the modern world.
In this way, even if Meng Jingxian possessed the strength of a Heavenly Venerable, he wouldn't be able to catch up with him.
A dozen minutes later.
Meng Jingxian has already arrived in the Divine Continent of the Xuanhuang Realm.
"Master, are you saying that this spacetime trajectory extends all the way to the vicinity of the Three Saints Sect?" Meng Jingxian asked in his mind.
"Yes, my intuition is correct," the aged voice replied.
"Could this person be some old monster from the Three Saints Sect?" Meng Jingxian wondered.
But he quickly dismissed the idea.
The three Heavenly Venerables of the Three Saints Sect are still at the boundary, and if that person were from the Three Saints Sect, Li Shijian wouldn't have attacked him before.
Despite his doubts, Meng Jingxian returned to the Three Saints Sect and soon arrived at its gate.
Meng Jingxian has now returned to her original appearance, and the aura of a Heavenly Venerable on her body has completely dissipated.
Upon seeing Meng Jingxian appear, the disciples in front of the mountain gate immediately bowed respectfully:
"Greetings, Senior Brother Meng!"
Meng Jingxian asked, "Did anyone enter the sect half an hour ago?"
The disciples guarding the mountain exchanged glances, then shook their heads.
"No, the person who recently returned to the sect is Elder Jiang from Butian Peak. He came back half an hour ago."
