Double penetration, starting from being a trader

Although the overall strength of Canglan Star has increased significantly over the years, and there are several more Nascent Soul cultivators.

However, this level of strength is still no match for the Yin Corpse Sect.

Apart from Chen Feng, no one on Canglan Star possesses combat strength at the Void Refinement level alone.

The Yin Corpse Sect has five experts at the Void Refinement level.

Seeing the solemn expressions on everyone's faces, Xu Heng said:

"Everyone need not worry too much. The Void Refinement cultivator from the Yin Corpse Sect was previously repelled by Elder Wang Hu, so he probably won't rashly cross the Starry Sky Vortex to pursue us."

"Moreover, the defense of our Canglan Star has improved a lot in recent years. Although we may not be able to kill a Void Refinement cultivator, we can still stop and block them."

As soon as Xu Heng finished speaking, Yun Qingjue asked:
"When will Sect Leader Chen emerge from seclusion?"

Xu Heng's words did not reassure everyone; their first thought was still Chen Feng.

Twenty years ago, Chen Feng crushed the primordial spirits of several Void Refinement cultivators right in front of them.

This is enough to show that Chen Feng has the strength to kill someone at the Void Refinement stage.

Sitting to the side, Liu Qian said:

"Fairy Yun, stop thinking about the sect leader. I can tell you the truth: unless there is a planet-destroying crisis, the sect leader will not come out of seclusion."

Hearing this, Yun Qingjue could only sigh helplessly.

Liu Qian continued to look at the crowd:

"Everyone, no matter how strong the Yin Corpse Sect is, we must be prepared to fight them. Although the Void Refinement cultivators are very strong, our Xingfeng Sect also has trump cards that can counter them."

Liu Qian wasn't too afraid, as Xingfeng Sect had improved tremendously over the past few decades.

Among them, more than fifty pieces of the Guixu Stone, an antimatter weapon, have been produced in recent years. If used properly, this thing can also pose a threat to those who have reached the Void Refinement stage.

Moreover, Liu Qian thought even more deeply: if Xingfeng Sect encountered any problems, they could only turn to Chen Feng.

What use do Chen Feng need them for?

After so many years of development, Xingfengmen hasn't had any real combat experience for a long time, and this is a good opportunity.

Nangong Wentian, standing nearby, slapped his chair:
"Manager Liu is right. If you're afraid of this and that, are you going to surrender to the Yin Corpse Sect or fight them instead?"

Upon hearing these words, the people in the room made their decisions.

Those who reach the level of Nascent Soul are not indecisive.

Yun Qingjue said:

"Manager Liu, all the cultivators of our Immortal Treasure Merchant Guild are willing to obey the orders of the Xingfeng Sect!"

Nangong Wentian said, "Our Great Zhou is the same."

The others also expressed their opinions, saying that since it was a war against foreign powers, there must be a force to lead this great war.

And the ventilation door is undoubtedly the most suitable one.

The Nascent Soul cultivators in the arena represent more than just their individual forces; each Nascent Soul cultivator's force has countless vassal forces.

If these people agree to be at the beck and call of Xingfeng Sect, then Xingfeng Sect can mobilize 80% of the cultivators on Canglan Star.

"Alright, let's discuss the specific battle plan then."

Liu Qian wasted no time and immediately began discussing tactics with everyone to deal with the Yin Corpse Sect.

Dinghai Star Region, Mingzhou.

The Mingzhou Continent is located on the edge of the Dinghai Star Region. This continent is extremely vast; in terms of area alone, it is more than twice the size of Canglan Star.

The Yin Corpse Sect is the most powerful force in the Underworld Continent.

The Yin Corpse Sect has controlled the Underworld Continent for over ten thousand years. The Underworld Continent has countless forces of all sizes, but all of these forces are vassals of the Yin Corpse Sect.

Because of the existence of the Yin Corpse Sect, cultivators in the Underworld Continent generally practice demonic cultivation techniques.

The Yin Corpse Sect is located in a place called Yin Wind Rift on the continent of Mingzhou.

This place is surrounded by yin energy all year round, making it very suitable for the cultivation of disciples of the Yin Corpse Sect.

Inside a main hall of the Yin Corpse Sect, the place was filled with cultivators, including nearly fifty Nascent Soul cultivators alone.

More than half of these cultivators are corpse refiners.

They were surrounded by black mist and covered in thick black hair.

In addition to controlling and refining corpses to fight enemies, cultivators of the Yin Corpse Sect can also fuse corpses.

The so-called corpse fusion refers to the process where, after refining a corpse to its highest level, a cultivator can integrate their primordial spirit into the corpse's body.

This greatly enhances their combat power.

Corpse refinement inherently possesses a powerful physique, and when a cultivator integrates with it, the advantages of corpse refinement can be greatly utilized.

However, fusion with corpses also has significant drawbacks.

Firstly, only cultivators who have reached the Nascent Soul stage can fuse with a corpse, and once they fuse with a corpse, their cultivation level cannot be improved further.

This is why there are so many Nascent Soul cultivators in the Yin Corpse Sect.

Many cultivators of the Yin Corpse Sect, feeling unable to break through their limits, choose to fuse with corpses in order to enhance their strength.

At this moment, a giant nearly three meters tall sat in the main seat of the hall.

The giant's face and body were covered in black hair, and long, sharp teeth protruded from his mouth.

This person is none other than Li Haifeng, the current sect leader of the Yin Corpse Sect.

Li Haifeng glanced at the people in the room, then rested his chin on his hand and said:

"Elder Bone, share the information you've gathered with everyone."

The person sitting on Li Haifeng's far right spoke in a low voice:

"According to our preliminary investigation, the force that broke into our sect's star vortex a few days ago is a force on a cultivation star, which is located near the thirty-first star vortex."

Upon hearing this, someone asked in confusion:
"Star Vortex No. 31? I remember that used to be a star mineral vein. When did a cultivation star appear there?"

The Yin Corpse Sect doesn't just control the Underworld Continent; their influence extends across several star systems in the surrounding area.

These areas contain many unique resources.

The No. 31 Star Vortex was built a thousand years ago by the Yin Corpse Sect to mine a mineral vein, and it has been abandoned for countless years.

The Starry Sky Mineral Vein is a unique resource in the Dinghai Star Region.

This type of mineral vein can produce Yuan Stones, and there are many such mineral veins in the Dinghai Star Region.

Elder Bone said:
"This is also what puzzles me. A thousand years ago, my disciples did not find any cultivation stars in that starry sky, but a thousand years later, a cultivation star has appeared there. This is not simple."

A cultivation star suddenly appeared in a place that originally had no cultivation stars; this seems rather abnormal.

Although new cultivation stars appear in the Dinghai Star Region every year.

However, it takes countless years for a cultivation star to evolve from its birth to its formation.

It would be impossible for a cultivation star to be born in just a thousand years.

An elder of the Yin Corpse Sect looked at Li Haifeng, who was seated in the main seat, and asked:

"Sect Master, what did the Ancestors say?"

Li Haifeng said in a hoarse voice, "The Ancestor and the others mean that we should take action to test this force and see what its strength is."

Everyone nodded when they heard this.

Putting aside the fact that this force suddenly appeared on their Yin Corpse Sect's territory, the fact that they had previously killed members of their Yin Corpse Sect is unforgivable. Li Haifeng then looked at Elder Bone:
"Elder Gu, this operation is entrusted to you. To be on the safe side, please bring ten Nascent Soul cultivators with you this time."

Upon hearing this, Elder Gu immediately clasped his hands in a fist salute: "I will obey the sect leader's command!"

Li Haifeng then added:

"Also, you must figure out what kind of treasure those black rays were that people released before."

Elder Bone nodded: "Understood!"

Elder Bone and the others were well aware of what Elder Qiu had done before; before leaving, that group released a black ray.

It was that black ray that blocked their ancestor's attack.

This alone proves that this force is not simple.

"Everyone, disperse!" Li Haifeng waved his hand.

The crowd in the main hall quickly dispersed.

After everyone had left, Li Haifeng cupped his hands in greeting to the shadows beside him: "Ancestor."

A figure slowly emerged from the shadows; this person was none other than Qiu Sanchi, the Void Refinement cultivator who had attacked Wang Hu and the others earlier.

This person is also one of the five Void Refinement cultivators of the Yin Corpse Sect.

Qiu Sanchi said in a cold voice, "I just received news that traces of cultivators from other regions have also been discovered on the Desolate Flame Continent, and there are quite a few of them. The two sides have already started fighting."

Upon hearing this, Li Haifeng's face darkened:
"What is the strength of those extraterrestrial cultivators over there?"

The Desolate Flame Continent is the closest continent to their Underworld Continent, and its strength is roughly the same as theirs.

"There are three Void Refinement cultivators leading the team, and dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators as well."

Li Haifeng's pupils shrank: "So strong."

Qiu Sanchi sneered: "Could any force that dares to come to our Dinghai Star Region to seize the Immortal Realm's secret realm be a simple force? It would be quite normal for even a half-step Dao Integration cultivator to appear."

Li Haifeng nodded emphatically:
“I was wondering why the Ancestor was so cautious about those cultivators from outside the realm. If the forces that attacked our sect before also had Void Refinement cultivators in charge, then we should indeed be more careful.”

Qiu Sanchi: "It's good that you understand. Although the Upper Clan instructed us to stop these forces from entering the Central Star Sea, we don't need to sacrifice manpower in vain. If that group really had a Void Refinement cultivator in charge, we would just turn a blind eye to them."

Li Haifeng was immediately alarmed: "Ancestor! This is an order from the Upper Clan. What if the Upper Clan finds out that we let people into the Central Star Sea and holds us accountable afterwards?"

The Upper Clan is naturally the Sea Fork Clan, the largest clan in the Dinghai Star Region, and the true overlord of the Dinghai Star Region.

There are several races in the Dinghai Starfield, and the human race can only be considered a medium-sized race.

Many forces in the Dinghai Star Region must obey the orders of the Haicha Clan and pay tribute every year.

Qiu Sanchi said in a deep voice:
“I know your concerns, but the Dinghai Starfield is in great chaos right now. The Upper Clan won’t pay attention to a small place like ours. What my Yin Corpse Sect needs to do is protect ourselves amidst the turmoil!”

Upon hearing Qiu Sanchi's words, Li Haifeng nodded emphatically: "Ancestor, I understand."

Qiu Sanchi then added:

"By the way, our Yin Corpse Sect has a total of three spots for the Immortal Realm Secret Realm this time, and we have decided to give one to you."

Upon hearing this, Li Haifeng was overjoyed:

"Thank you, ancestor!"

The Immortal Realm Secret Realm is a part of the ancient Immortal Realm, containing countless treasures.

Although Nascent Soul cultivators can only explore the outer areas, finding even a single spiritual herb is an incredible stroke of luck.

A few days later.

The Yin Corpse Sect gathered its forces and traveled through the Starry Sky Vortex to the starry sky where Canglan Star was located.

Because Canglan Star was already prepared, the Yin Corpse Sect was intercepted by the Xingfeng Sect's fleet before it even got close to Canglan Star.

A great battle broke out between the two sides millions of miles away from Canglan Star.

The battle lasted for three days and ended with the Yin Corpse Sect losing two Nascent Soul cultivators.

The Xingfeng Sect's fleet demonstrated a significant advantage in interstellar warfare, and with the aid of kinetic weapons, the Yinshi Sect cultivators naturally found it difficult to withstand them.

But just half a month later, the Yin Corpse Sect made a comeback.

This time, the Yin Corpse Sect was clearly well-prepared, sending as many as fifteen Nascent Soul cultivators and thousands of magic ships.

The two sides engaged in another major battle.

Although the Yin Corpse Sect has far more Nascent Soul cultivators than the Xingfeng Sect, the Xingfeng Sect, with its fleet composed of space motherships and high-tech weapons, is not much weaker than the Yin Corpse Sect.

The cultivators of Xingfeng Sect were particularly excited about this great battle, since it was usually difficult to earn contribution points.

But once war breaks out, you can earn contribution points by killing enemies.

The cultivators of Canglan Star also learned about the invasion by foreign enemies, and many cultivators, under the command of Xingfeng Sect, began to go to the battlefield to provide support.

Thus, Canglan Star officially entered the era of war.

Earth, within the Haotian Secret Realm.

A fleet is sailing through space, consisting of more than three hundred space carriers.

On the deck of one of the motherships, a woman dressed in a black training uniform stood at the front of the deck, gazing at the distant starry sky.

The woman had a fair complexion and a slender figure, but her eyes were very sharp.

At this moment, a middle-aged man walked over and said:
"What are you looking at, Xiao Ning?"

This middle-aged man has an honest and simple appearance; who else could he be but Yang Fuqiang?

More than two years have passed, and Yang Fuqiang's cultivation has reached the peak of Foundation Establishment, and he is only one step away from breaking through to the Golden Core stage.

As for the person Yang Fuqiang was asking, it was naturally Xiao Ning.

Xiao Ning's cultivation level has now reached the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm.

"After finishing the work, I always feel a sense of emptiness," Xiao Ning sighed.

Yang Fuqiang said:
"Isn't it a good thing that the monsters have been eliminated? These past few years have been exhausting for me."

For the past two years, Xiao Ning and the others have been following Jack's fleet to clear out monsters in the Haotian Secret Realm.

Several days ago, they successfully wiped out the monsters on the last planet, and since then, no monsters have survived in the Haotian Secret Realm.

Two years of fighting have brought about significant changes in Xiao Ning, Yang Fuqiang, and others.

Xiao Ning let out a breath, then asked:
Are you planning to go back to the Golden Triangle next?

Yang Fuqiang nodded: "Of course, I haven't been back for several months. If I don't go back soon, my wife might run off with someone else."

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Ning said:

"I think you should break through to the Golden Core stage before going back."

Upon hearing this, Yang Fuqiang immediately shook his head: "Forget about breaking through. I feel like I can't overcome my inner demons."

Currently, among the cultivators on Earth, besides Xiao Ning, Zhou Chen has also broken through to the Golden Core stage, while only Yang Fuqiang has reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

He is also the third member of this cultivation team who has a chance to break through to the Golden Core stage.

"What are you afraid of? Just go to Sister Lin Wei and ask for a Cleansing Pill. With this pill, the tribulation of inner demons will be easy to overcome." Xiao Ning said somewhat speechlessly.

Yang Fuqiang shook his head again: "No, the risk is still too great. Let's wait until my son goes to high school next year before we make a breakthrough."

Just then, Jack came jogging over from a distance, his face beaming with excitement, and shouted:

"The boss has emerged from seclusion! Professor Lin wants us to return to the base." (End of Chapter)
