Double penetration, starting from being a trader

"Sect Master, we have taken over the entire Mingzhou. A total of 630 forces have submitted. As you instructed, we only took a portion of their wealth, and they still come to pay tribute every year."

Yin Corpse Sect, in the main hall.

Liu Qian took out a jade slip and handed it to Chen Feng.

At this moment, the main hall was filled with high-ranking members of the Xingfeng Sect and several Nascent Soul cultivators from Canglan Star.

After half a month of conquest, they have now conquered the continent of Mingzhou, and it is time to reap the rewards.

Everyone was very excited.

For both the people of Xingfeng Sect and the Nascent Soul cultivators of Canglan Star, the gains this time were enormous.

The entire Underworld Continent is incredibly vast, and its resources are countless.
Everyone knows that Chen Feng is always fair, and anyone who has made a contribution will receive the reward they deserve.

But compared to these people, everyone looked at Chen Feng with a sense of awe.

Although no one witnessed Chen Feng's battle with the Void Refinement cultivators of the Yin Corpse Sect, they did receive news from Chen Feng that he had dealt with all the Void Refinement cultivators of the Yin Corpse Sect.

This shocked everyone, as the Yin Corpse Sect had several Void Refinement experts, including two late-stage Void Refinement cultivators.

This lineup had previously put them under immense pressure.

But as soon as Chen Feng arrived, the big problem they had in mind was easily solved, and he even conquered the Mingzhou Continent, a result that no one had ever dared to imagine before.

Chen Feng, seated at the head of the table, took the jade slip and glanced at it.

It contains a list of the treasures acquired this time.

Chen Feng's heart skipped a beat after just one glance.

The number of top-grade spirit stones obtained from this plundering of the Underworld Continent alone is nearly one billion.

Billion.

Chen Feng almost misread it; the number was far beyond his expectations.

It should be noted that this only represents less than 30% of the wealth plundered from the forces of the Underworld Continent.

The reason he didn't take everything away was also because he considered future development; Chen Feng didn't like to do things like draining the pond to catch all the fish.

If these forces were allowed to remain on the continent of Mingzhou, the amount of money they would have to pay to Xingfeng Sect each year would be astronomical.

This only includes the looted wealth; the various spiritual veins and spirit stone mines of the Underworld Continent are not even included.

"War is still the fastest way to make money," Chen Feng couldn't help but sigh.

The Mingzhou Continent is merely a peripheral continent within the Dinghai Star Region; there are countless other continents like it throughout the entire Dinghai Star Region.

Chen Feng found it funny to think about how he used to worry about earning spirit stones.

Compared to spirit stones, there are far fewer yuan stones, only 100,000.

This is also because the strongest forces in the Underworld Continent are only at the Nascent Soul stage, and Nascent Soul cultivators can only possess a very small number of spirit stones.

Half of these 100,000 Yuan Stones were obtained from the Yin Corpse Sect's treasury.

But Chen Feng was not disappointed, because he still had several Refined Void Primordial Spirits in his hands. As long as he forced them to open their Mustard Seed Space, they would definitely not lack Primordial Stones.

For a powerful force like the Yin Corpse Sect, the most precious things are definitely kept in the mustard seed spaces of a few Void Refinement cultivators.

Chen Feng looked at Liu Qian and said:

Have all the contribution points been distributed?

Liu Qian said, "Taiyi is calculating and compiling the statistics, and the results should be available within three days."

The contribution points distributed by Xingfengmen this time will be a huge number.

However, now that Xingfeng Sect has absorbed resources from the Underworld Continent, distributing more contribution points is not a problem.

The resources in Xingfeng Sect's treasury have increased more than a hundredfold compared to before, enough for everyone to exchange.

Chen Feng then looked at Yun Qingjue and the others.

"Everyone, thank you for your hard work over the past two years."

Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, Nangong Wentian immediately said, "Sect Leader Chen, protecting Canglan Star is also our responsibility. It's nothing difficult."

Yun Qingjue nodded in agreement: "Yes, we didn't actually do much."

The contribution points distributed by Xingfengmen this time are not just for the members of Xingfengmen; Yun Qingjue and the others will also receive a generous amount of contribution points.

After all, this attack on the Mingzhou Continent was not only carried out by cultivators from the Xingfeng Sect, but also by cultivators from other forces on Canglan Star.

Distributing contribution points uniformly is the safest approach.

These people can use their contribution points to exchange for items at the Xingfeng Sect's treasury.

However, the items they can exchange are very limited; they cannot exchange for resources and treasures at the Void Refinement level.

Such precious items can only be exchanged by core members of the Xingfeng Sect, or at least by elders.

Chen Feng looked at the group and said:

“You all contributed a lot this time. In addition to the original contribution points reward, I will give you some additional rewards. Now I will give you two choices.”

Chen Feng had already learned from Liu Qian that if it weren't for the fierce battle fought by Yun Qingjue and a few other Nascent Soul cultivators over the past two years, Xingfeng Sect wouldn't have been able to hold out for even two years.

In particular, antimatter weapons can only deter cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage from using them.

Therefore, Chen Feng decided to reward the group individually.

Upon hearing this, Yun Qingjue and the others immediately sat up straight; the reward Chen Feng gave must be extraordinary.

Chen Feng slowly said:

"First, I will give each of you some treasures and resources that will help your cultivation, including but not limited to spiritual objects that help you comprehend the laws. Second, you can choose a territory in the Underworld Continent to develop your power there. Our Xingfeng Sect will not interfere and will even provide support. The spiritual veins and spirit stone mines on that territory will all belong to you."

Chen Feng's choice was simple: one was for one's own cultivation, and the other was for power.

As for how to choose, that's up to them.

After hearing Chen Feng's words, everyone in the room began to breathe rapidly.

Especially Yun Qingjue, who is already at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage and has even comprehended the laws. If she can obtain spiritual items, she might have a chance to break through to the Void Refinement stage.

Nangong Wentian was the first to speak:

"I choose a piece of land!"

Everyone looked at Nangong Wentian with some surprise, clearly not expecting him to make such a choice.

Nangong Wentian said with a wry smile:

"My talent has already reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. Even if I obtain a spiritual object, I will not be able to break through to the Void Refinement stage. It would be better to leave a legacy for future generations."

Nangong Wentian had absolutely no hope of breaking through to the Void Refinement stage.

Choosing a territory to develop will surely make their Great Zhou Dynasty even stronger in the future, and with a territory, their descendants will not lack cultivation resources.

Perhaps no one in his generation can break through to the Void Refinement stage, but what about the next generation?

Everyone immediately understood what Nangong Wentian meant.

Soon, many people expressed their opinions, and Yun Qingjue and You Luan chose the spiritual items they wanted to use to break through to the Void Refinement stage.

As for the others, they all chose to develop in a specific area.

The Nascent Soul cultivators of Xingfeng Sect did not speak. Their rewards were contribution points, but because they had sufficient authority, they could directly exchange them for whatever they wanted in the treasure vault.

After everyone had expressed their opinions, Chen Feng dismissed Yun Qingjue and the others, saying that Liu Qian would make arrangements for the treasures and territory later.

Soon, only the high-ranking members of Xingfeng Sect remained in the main hall.

Jiang Bohan then spoke up, "Sect Master, although we have already taken over the Underworld Continent, the Thunder Continent is not far from us. The Thunder Palace and the Yin Corpse Sect have cooperated before. Should we send someone over to monitor them?"

Jiang Bohan was not blinded by victory. As the commander of Wangyue City, he was very capable of leading troops.

He also played a significant role in this great battle. Ge Yunxuan, sitting on the other side, nodded in agreement: "Elder Jiang is right. The Thunder Continent is stronger than the Underworld Continent. If they launch an attack, it will be a huge problem for us. We must prepare early."

Chen Feng glanced at the group and then said:
"I forgot to tell you something: Thunder Palace has become our ally and will not attack us."

Upon hearing this, the senior executives of Xingfengmen present were completely stunned.

How come we suddenly have an ally?
Wang Hu's mechanical eyes instantly enlarged, looking like two light bulbs.

"Sect Master, what exactly is going on?"

The others also looked at Chen Feng, waiting for his explanation.

Chen Feng said:

"It's very simple. The Lord of the Thunder Palace thinks I'm very strong and admires me, so he chose to form an alliance with us. We can skip this topic."

Chen Feng did not reveal that Qiong Leizi was under his control; there was no point in telling Liu Qian and the others about it.

Jiang Bohan then said with a smile:

"In that case, the threat is eliminated. What we need to do next is to deploy a defense system for the Mingzhou Continent and establish a branch here."

Liu Qian nodded: "I'm already preparing for the establishment of the branch. In order to facilitate communication between Canglan Star and the Underworld Continent, I plan to first change the direction of Canglan Star's engines and move Canglan Star to the vicinity of the Thirty-One Star Vortex."

Previously, in order to avoid the Yin Corpse Sect, Canglan Star had been staying away from the Thirty-One Star Vortex. Now that the crisis has been resolved and the Underworld Continent has been taken over, it is natural to let Canglan Star return.

Chen Feng said:

"Although we have conquered the Underworld Continent, it does not mean we are safe. The situation in the Dinghai Star Region is very complicated."

Chen Feng briefly recounted the information he had obtained from Qiong Leizi.

He needed to explain the current situation to Liu Qian and the others.

Everyone's expressions turned serious after hearing Chen Feng's words.

"It seems this star field is even more complex than the Weiyang Star Field." Liu Qian's voice was somewhat low.

"Don't worry too much. As long as we don't continue to expand outwards, everything will be fine. You can discuss the rest yourselves. I'll be leaving now."

Chen Feng looked at everyone and spoke.

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall immediately stood up and said, "Respectfully seeing off the Sect Master!"

After the group finished speaking, Chen Feng's figure had already disappeared from the main seat.

The Yin Corpse Sect, a secret location.

This place was originally Mingzhouzi's cultivation site, but now it has become Chen Feng's temporary cave dwelling.

After arriving here, Chen Feng released all the refined primordial spirits from the Soul Wood Box.

There are a total of six primordial spirits, five of whom are from the Yin Corpse Sect and one from the Thunder Palace.

Although Chen Feng has already subdued Qiong Leizi, it doesn't mean he will let Shen Qingyue go. Moreover, this woman has already been crippled by him, and even if she can recover her cultivation level, it will drop.

It's no longer of any value.

As soon as the several primordial spirits appeared, they immediately began to threaten Chen Feng.

"Chen Beijing, my Yin Corpse Sect is a subordinate force of the Six Holy Sons. If we die here, the Six Holy Sons will not let you go!"

"Fellow Daoist Chen, spare my life! I am willing to acknowledge you as my master. Please grant me a way out."

"."

Threats and pleas for mercy were used in various ways, but Chen Feng found it annoying and simply blocked out their voices.

He immediately covered the group with the power of the stars.

Soon, shrill screams came from the mouths of several people, but because the sound was blocked, Chen Feng couldn't hear it at all.

While torturing the group, Chen Feng was thinking about other things.

Two weeks ago, Qiong Leizi told him a lot of information that he didn't know.

Among them is the Immortal Realm Secret Realm that was opened in the Dinghai Star Region this time.

The Immortal Realm Secret Realm opens once every ten thousand years, containing opportunities for achieving Dao.

Therefore, every ten thousand years, powerful figures from surrounding star regions would flock to the Dinghai Star Region, all for the sake of this Immortal Realm Secret Realm.
The Dinghai Starfield is controlled by the Haicha Clan, and there are almost no forces in the surrounding starfields that can rival the Haicha Clan.

In addition, the Sea Fork Clan acts domineeringly and does not allow cultivators from other star regions to enter the Immortal Realm Secret Realm.

Therefore, every time the Immortal Realm Secret Realm opens, powerful individuals will risk forcibly enter the Central Star Sea.

As for the Yin Corpse Sect and the Thunder Palace, they were specifically there to help the Sea Fork Clan resist forces from outside the region; their Xingfeng Sect was simply caught up in it.

Chen Feng didn't care much about this immortal realm.

He wouldn't risk exploring secret realms unless absolutely necessary.

Wouldn't it be better to just stay at home and cultivate oneself honestly?

"We're just waiting for news from Qiong Leizi."

Qiong Leizi has already contacted the Five Holy Maidens, making Xingfeng Sect a vassal force of them, so that they don't have to worry about being targeted by the Sixth Holy Son.

Chen Feng has no desire to go to war with a behemoth like the Sea Fork Clan right now; buying time to cultivate is the safest option.

Just then, Chen Feng suddenly sensed that the several primordial spirits in front of him seemed to be begging for mercy, but he hadn't noticed them before because he was thinking about something.

Chen Feng waved his right hand, disabling the soundproofing, and then said:

"Open the Mustard Seed Space!"

Fifteen minutes later, Chen Feng looked at the dazzling array of items in front of him and remained silent.

Rich!

They're incredibly rich.

The six Void Refinement cultivators together possessed over 300,000 spirit stones, a number several times greater than that of all Void Refinement cultivators in the Weiyang Star Region.

The regions here are different. Compared to the Void Refining experts in the Dinghai Star Region, the Void Refining experts in the Weiyang Star Region are like country bumpkins.

Besides the spirit stones, these people also possessed many precious spiritual items and treasures.

Among them are more than a dozen spiritual objects that help the Nascent Soul cultivator comprehend the laws, including eight top-tier innate spiritual treasures.

The only thing that was a near-heavenly treasure was the coffin, but because of the previous great battle, only a pile of fragments remained of this near-heavenly treasure.

Chen Feng felt it was a bit of a pity, as this thing was incredibly powerful. He had been bound by that Yin energy, and he wouldn't have been able to break free if he hadn't activated the full power of the star array.

Even a peak Void Refinement cultivator could easily restrain this near-heavenly treasure, but unfortunately it encountered him.

Chen Feng picked up the fragment and prepared to put it into his storage ring.

But at that moment, he suddenly sensed that something inside his storage ring seemed to be trembling.

Chen Feng was taken aback. He immediately began searching inside his storage ring. After searching for a long time, he finally found the source of the tremor in an inconspicuous corner.

It was a wooden sword.

"It's actually this thing." Chen Feng was surprised. He had had this thing for a long time.

It was obtained from a cave dwelling of a cunning and treacherous man, at a time when he had a conflict with several Golden Core cultivators.

He obtained the wooden sword automatically but never figured out how to use it.

The wooden sword did react after I acquired a bronze piece at an auction, but it hasn't moved since.

As his cultivation level improved, he stopped paying attention to the wooden sword and simply left it to gather dust in a corner.

Now the wooden sword is moving again, and this movement is clearly due to the fragment of the near-heavenly treasure in his hand. (End of Chapter)
