Double penetration, starting from being a trader

Chen Feng immediately put a fragment into his storage ring.

The wooden sword began absorbing the fragment as soon as it came into contact with it.

As the wooden sword absorbed the energy, something within the fragment of the Heavenly Treasure seemed to be dissipating.

"This thing might not be as simple as I thought."

A glint flashed in Chen Feng's eyes. He had previously thought that the wooden sword was just an ordinary spiritual treasure, since it was something that Zheng Jiao had obtained by chance.

At that time, Zheng Jiao was only at the Golden Core stage, and the treasures he obtained were not particularly powerful.

However, this wooden sword can now absorb even fragments of a near-heavenly treasure, which is quite remarkable.

"Let's see if anything changes after absorbing these fragments."

Chen Feng immediately placed all the fragments next to the wooden sword, since they were useless to him anyway.

If it can change the wooden sword, that would be a good thing.

After collecting all the treasures on the ground, Chen Feng pondered his next plan.

He already has the Yuan Stones; now all he needs to do is break through to the Void Refinement stage.

There are still about seven years until the cultivators from the Haotian Secret Realm arrive, which translates to seventy years in the scroll world.

"We must break through to the Void Refinement Realm within twenty years, and then use the remaining time to refine more planets in the modern world."

Chen Feng made arrangements for the follow-up plan.

He had a feeling that simply breaking through to the Void Refinement stage might not be enough to deal with the terrifying forces behind the Haotian Secret Realm.

A 24-star array is still too few.

Breaking through to the Void Refinement stage in twenty years would seem like a fantasy to any cultivator.

The transition from the peak of the Nascent Soul stage to the Void Refinement stage has stumped countless geniuses.

Some people have been stuck in this state for thousands of years.

But Chen Feng had enough confidence to break through.

His own strength had long surpassed the Refinement Void level, and he had fought against Refinement Void cultivators many times. His understanding of the laws was much higher than that of other Nascent Soul cultivators.

In addition, there's his Eye of Law.

This item can help him comprehend the laws more quickly, and in the meantime he has also obtained many spiritual items to help him break through to the Void Refinement stage.

With such a foundation, breaking through to the Void Refinement Realm in twenty years is not a pipe dream.

As for the tribulation that cultivators at the Void Refinement stage need to overcome, he doesn't need to prepare any tribulation-crossing treasures; he can simply return to the modern world to undergo the tribulation.

Chen Feng's pupils quickly turned purple.

The surrounding scenery quickly changed, and all sorts of threads of law appeared before him.

Chen Feng did not choose those special laws that were difficult to master. Although these laws were powerful, they took several times or even dozens of times longer to comprehend than other laws.

His goal wasn't to improve his combat power through these laws; he simply wanted to master one law to break through his cultivation level.

Other rules can be learned gradually later.

“Every law has its own unique characteristics. I need to find the one that suits me, and then fully comprehend it.”

Chen Feng's purple pupils flickered as he began searching among the countless threads of law around him.

Ten days later.

Inside the cave, a thread of law floated silently in front of Chen Feng.

This thread of law had no color; it was as if a wisp of air was floating in front of him.

During those ten days, he observed hundreds of different kinds of Law Threads, almost every attribute, and even tried to comprehend them.

In the end, he discovered that the Law of Force was the most suitable for him.

The Law of Force is the simplest. Once mastered, it can greatly increase one's strength. It can be fully utilized without even needing to specifically cultivate the Law of Force. It is one of the purest laws.

The Law of Force is not particularly rare; many people have mastered it, and its power is not considered strong.

As for how he could resonate with the Law of Force, Chen Feng estimated that it was related to the strength of his physical body.

This principle was condensed by him within ten days.

The prerequisite for a Nascent Soul cultivator to break through to the Void Refinement stage is to condense one hundred strands of law.

After obtaining one hundred threads of law, one needs to draw upon the primordial energy of heaven and earth to fuse one's primordial spirit with the threads of law, thereby causing a qualitative change in the primordial spirit.

Every step during this process must be flawless.

The threads of law are formed from the rules of the universe. If you are not careful, they can damage your primordial spirit. This is why many peak Nascent Soul cultivators dare not fuse with even a hundred threads of law.

Many Nascent Soul cultivators linger at this stage for a long time in order to gain a deeper understanding of the laws and thus ensure a successful fusion.

But Chen Feng didn't consider these things at all. With the help of vast resources, he could completely ignore the risks involved.

Moreover, even if the fusion fails, he can still draw upon the power of the stars to protect his primordial spirit.

Without wasting any time, Chen Feng immediately began to comprehend the laws of power.

Three months have passed quietly.

In the past three months, Xingfeng Sect has successfully taken over the entire Mingzhou Continent, and the turmoil in Mingzhou has gradually subsided.

At first, the cultivators of the Underworld Continent were quite apprehensive, after all, they had fought alongside the Yin Corpse Sect against the Xingfeng Sect.

However, several months passed, and Xingfengmen did not pursue the matter further. They simply took some of their resources and then stopped making things difficult for them.

This reassured many factions.

In fact, other forces on the Underworld Continent had no sense of belonging to the Yin Corpse Sect at all.

The emergence of the Xingfeng Gate was simply another way to change the object of offerings.

After the turmoil on the Mingzhou continent subsided, the Xingfeng Sect's branch was successfully established.

The location is right next to the Yin Corpse Sect's headquarters.

The Yin Corpse Sect's headquarters is located in a crevice, a place perpetually devoid of sunlight and brimming with yin energy.

Xingfengmen would naturally not choose to establish a branch in such a gloomy place.

The reason for choosing to build it next to the Yin Corpse Sect is also because the area is rich in spiritual energy and vital energy.

Over the past three months, Xingfengmen has transported a large amount of resources and manpower from Canglan Star.

The Xuanwu formation has established ten new missile bases on the Mingzhou continent, and the Qinglong, Zhuque, and Baihu formations have each sent a group of personnel.

Liu Qian chose to stay on the Mingzhou Continent to oversee the overall situation, while the Canglan Star was left to Mo Chen and other elders of the Xingfeng Sect.

Since Canglan Star has been unified, nothing will happen to it.

It is worth mentioning that Xingfeng Sect has also opened interstellar flights to the Underworld Continent. Any cultivator from Canglan Star can enter the Underworld Continent to cultivate after applying.

However, not many cultivators applied to go to the Underworld Continent.

Because the spiritual energy of Canglan Star is now comparable to that of the Mingzhou Continent, resources can also be purchased from Xingfeng Sect.

Most of the cultivators from Canglan Star who come to the Underworld Continent are only driven by curiosity.

In addition to these, Xingfeng Sect also took over various industries of Yinshi Sect in the nearby star river, including three Yuan Stone mines and many other rare mineral veins.

These mineral veins were all naturally formed in the starry sky, and each type of mineral vein belongs to high-level resources.

Inside a star vortex near the continent of Mingzhou.

Two figures flew out from the vortex. Both of them had the cultivation level of the Void Refinement stage, and there was a crescent-shaped gill slit on each side of their necks.

These two were clearly cultivators from the Sea Chariot Clan. The Sea Chariot Clan highly valued bloodlines, and the manifestation of bloodlines was found in the gill slits on the two sides of the neck.

The more gill slits a person has, the more noble their bloodline is.

"We've finally arrived!" one of the tall Sea Fork Tribe members said, looking at the distant starry sky.

Another short Sea Sparrow tribesman said with a smile:

"It's a peripheral star system, so it's normal that it's far away. Let's hurry up and investigate; His Highness is probably getting impatient."

These two were naturally the two people sent by the Six Holy Sons of the Sea Chariot Clan to investigate.

The sudden loss of contact with the Yin Corpse Sect alerted the Six Saints, prompting them to send people to investigate.

"Let's go!" Gao Haicha said, and a wave of water appeared beneath his feet.

The space around them distorted as the water flowed.

The two immediately sped off towards the direction of the Underworld Continent.

Several days later, the two members of the Sea Fork Clan stopped outside the Underworld Continent because they had been stopped by someone.

The one who stopped them was none other than Qiong Leizi.

"Qiong Lei Zi? What are you doing stopping us?" The tall Sea Chariot Clan member looked at him with hostility.

He naturally recognized Qiong Leizi. Although there were many Void Refinement experts in the Dinghai Star Region, very few had reached the peak of Void Refinement. Such experts were invincible below the half-step Dao Integration realm.

Even among their Sea Fork Clan, those at the peak of the Void Refinement stage can hold high-ranking positions.

Qiong Leizi looked at the two of them and said with a smile:

"Have the two envoys come here today for the matter of the Yin Corpse Sect?"

Upon hearing this, the two Sea Sparrows exchanged a glance, and the taller Sea Sparrow said coldly:
"That's right, His Highness ordered us to investigate the situation of the Yin Corpse Sect."

"You two don't need to look anymore. The Yin Corpse Sect has been destroyed, and the Underworld Continent now has a new master," Qiong Leizi said slowly.

"What did you say? The Yin Corpse Sect has been destroyed?" The two Sea Fork Clan members were clearly shocked by the news.

Although the Yin Corpse Sect is not considered a major force in the Dinghai Star Region, it still has five Void Refinement level experts, and the Yin Corpse Sect is backed by the Six Holy Sons.

Who in the entire Dinghai Star Region dares to destroy the Yin Corpse Sect?

The short-statured Sea Fork Clan member asked in a low voice, "What exactly happened? Who destroyed the Yin Corpse Sect?"

Qiong Leizi sighed:
"It's a long story."

Qiong Leizi directly stated the reason he had prepared.

That is, the Yin Corpse Sect suddenly provoked the Xingfeng Sect, and the two sides subsequently engaged in a great battle. The Yin Corpse Sect was defeated and was destroyed.

As for the origin of Xingfengmen, Qiong Leizi directly stated that it was a force secretly cultivated by the Five Holy Maidens.

After hearing Qiong Leizi's words, the two Sea Chariot Clan members were at a loss for words.

They naturally knew about the Fifth Holy Maiden; she was the Sixth Holy Son's older sister, and her status within the Sea Fork Clan was even stronger than that of the Fifth Holy Son.

If it was indeed the forces under the Five Holy Maidens who made the move, then even the Six Holy Sons would have to swallow their anger, since they were outmatched.

But this feud is definitely now in the making.

After a moment of contemplation, Gao Dahaichazu said, "Have the people from Xingfengmen come over. We need to ask them some questions."

The two naturally wouldn't believe Qiong Leizi's one-sided story and had to find someone from Xingfeng Sect to ask him.

Moreover, if they went back like this, they wouldn't be able to explain it to the Sixth Holy Son. Finding out the details of the Xingfeng Sect would make it easier for them to report back.

Qiong Leizi thought for a moment, then nodded and took out a communicator to make contact.

This is the communicator that Xingfengmen gave him; it can only send simple electromagnetic waves.

The reason why the Xingfeng Gate satellite has not yet been launched from the Mingzhou Continent is mainly because the Mingzhou Continent is just a continent, not a planet.

To launch a satellite, you must first gather orbital data and then build the corresponding satellite, which is not something that can be done in a short time.

The three didn't have to wait long before a space carrier arrived at the scene.

Jiang Bohan flew down from the mothership.

Qiong Leizi smiled at Jiang Bohan and said, "Elder Jiang, these two are envoys from the Haicha Clan. They have come to inquire about some matters concerning your sect."

Jiang Bohan already knew the situation beforehand, so he wasn't surprised. He bowed to the two Sea Chariot tribesmen:
"Jiang Bohan greets the two envoys!"

The two Sea Chariot Clan members frowned upon seeing that Jiang Bohan was only at the Nascent Soul stage.

Gao Haichazu said coldly, "What? We two came, but Xingfeng Sect only sent one Nascent Soul cultivator?"

Upon hearing this, Qiong Leizi was momentarily speechless.

He couldn't very well say that Chen Feng was the only one in the entire Xingfeng Sect who had reached the Void Refinement stage, and besides, Chen Feng was currently in seclusion, so Qiong Lei Zi wouldn't dare to disturb him.

Jiang Bohan, however, remained expressionless and cupped his hands in greeting, saying:
"Reporting to the two envoys, the cultivators in our sect who have reached the Void Refinement stage are currently resisting cultivators from outside the realm and are not currently within the sect."

Jiang Bohan was originally the leader of a powerful force, so he naturally knew how to handle this situation.

Upon hearing this, the short sea hawk tribe member gave Jiang Bohan a cold look:

"A mere Nascent Soul cultivator, do you even have the right to speak here?"

A terrifying pressure of divine sense instantly enveloped Jiang Bohan. Jiang Bohan was only at the Nascent Soul stage; how could he possibly withstand the divine sense of a Void Refinement stage cultivator?

As soon as he was enveloped by divine sense, his face turned pale and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

Upon seeing this, Qiong Leizi immediately released his divine sense to neutralize the divine sense of the Haicha Clan.

The giant sea monster stared at Qiong Leizi:
"Qiong Leizi, what do you mean?"

Qiong Leizi said with a grim expression, "I meant nothing by it. On the contrary, the two envoys suddenly attacked the people of Xingfeng Sect. Do they think that Her Highness the Fifth Holy Maiden will not blame them?"

Gao Dahaicha said in a deep voice, "You don't need to use the Holy Maiden to intimidate me. The Yin Corpse Sect is a force under the Six Holy Sons. Now that it has been destroyed, we naturally want to investigate it thoroughly."

"Bring out the sect leader of Xingfeng Sect. We'll ask him a few questions and then leave!"

Jiang Bohan then continued:
"Gentlemen, our sect master is not currently in the sect. Please feel free to ask us any questions."

"Get lost!" Gao Haicha interrupted Jiang Bohan's words, and a large number of water waves immediately appeared around them, all of which contained extremely strong water laws.

Qiong Leizi reacted quickly, and hurriedly flicked his finger towards the water wave.

A bolt of lightning struck the waves at extremely high speed.

boom!
The collision of the two energies immediately caused the starry sky to tremble.

After everything calmed down, Qiong Leizi was about to question him, but then his expression changed.

Because Jiang Bohan's physical body was gone, only his primordial spirit remained in the field.

Jiang Bohan was only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. The aftershocks of a battle at the Void Refinement level were something he couldn't withstand. In that instant, his physical body was destroyed.

"It's over!" This was the only thought in Qiong Leizi's mind at that moment.

Previously, injuring Jiang Bohan was nothing, but now that Jiang Bohan's physical body is gone, the consequences are extremely serious.

Based on his investigation of Chen Feng over this period of time, he was well aware of Chen Feng's protective nature.

If Chen Feng were to learn of this, those two Sea Fork Clan members would undoubtedly be killed.

If these two die here, the Sixth Holy Son will definitely not let it go.

"Qiong Lei Zi, how dare you attack us two!" Gao Haihai Chazu looked at Qiong Lei Zi with a face full of anger.

Upon hearing this, Qiong Leizi felt like cursing.

He'd never seen anyone so reckless. Why not just ask them a proper question and report back? They had to stir up trouble. (End of Chapter)
