Double penetration, starting from being a trader

The cultivator spoke hesitantly:
"The ones who came were cultivators from the Sea Chariot Clan. Leading them was Cang Jilan, the sixth holy son of the Sea Chariot Clan. There were several dozen of them, including one who was at the half-step Dao Integration stage."

Upon hearing this, Fen Wuji, who had previously been indifferent, also turned his gaze over: "Which half-step Dao Integration stage?"

The monk replied respectfully:
"It's Li Songxuan from the Weiyang Star Region."

"So it was him." Upon hearing Li Songxuan's name, Fen Wuji immediately stopped caring.

A newly promoted half-step Dao Integration Realm cultivator is not worth his attention.

"Lord, should we let them come over?" the Void Refinement cultivator asked.

Fen Wuji shook his head: "Go tell them to get the hell away from me. If they dare to come near, I won't hesitate to kill them."

Upon hearing this, the cultivator at the Refinement stage nodded respectfully and then quickly ran off to inform them.

the other side.

Cang Jilan and a group of people stood in an open space, gazing at the mist in front of them.

This is already deep within the Immortal Realm.

The fog that enveloped the surrounding area was much thicker than in other areas.

Even a cultivator at the half-step Dao Integration level had their divine sense range suppressed to a range of more than ten miles.

"Senior, do you think Fen Wuji will meet with us?" Cang Jilan asked Li Songxuan beside him.

Li Songxuan said, "As long as the benefits are great enough, he will naturally be willing to meet with us."

Cang Jilan and Li Songxuan have been working together for the past few months, and the two have managed to regroup their forces.

"Do you think the deaths of our two clan elders are related to this Fen Wuji? There were rumors that he explored that hidden cave with the two elders. Now the two elders are dead, but he survived."

Cang Jilan said with a solemn expression.

Li Songxuan shook his head: "It's probably not very likely. Although Fen Wuji is strong, it's not an easy task for him to kill two half-step Dao Integration experts. I believe it was done by an unknown expert in the secret realm."

As a half-step Dao Integration cultivator, Li Songxuan knew very well how difficult it was to kill someone at that level.

Cang Jilan's expression changed: "Senior also believes that it was caused by an accident involving a certain immortal?"

After the deaths of the two elders of the Sea Chase tribe, Sea Dragon and Sea Princess spread the word that a mysterious powerful figure had killed the two elders of the Sea Chase tribe.

This has led many to believe that there are immortals appearing in the secret realm of the immortals, but very few people actually believe it.

"How could I possibly know if he is an immortal? The only one who knows the specifics is probably Fen Wuji."

Just as the two were talking, a Void Refinement cultivator from the Fire Brahma Star Domain walked over. He looked at Cang Jilan and Li Songxuan and said coldly:

"Our Lord has said that he does not wish to see you any longer. Leave immediately."

Upon hearing this, many people around Cang Jilan showed expressions of anger. They simply wanted to meet him and discuss cooperation.

As it turned out, the other party didn't even want to see them.

Cang Jilan's expression was also not very good, but Li Songxuan said with a smile:

"Please also tell Fellow Daoist Fen that we would like to invite Fellow Daoist Fen to explore a cave together."

Upon hearing the word "cave dwelling," the Void Refinement cultivator from the Fire Brahma Star Domain immediately changed his expression:

"You wait!"

When it comes to hidden caves, the situation is different.

Not long after the cultivator left, Fen Wuji arrived.

He stared at Cang Jilan and asked, "The hidden cave you mentioned? Where is it?"

Seeing that Fen Wuji came out immediately, Li Songxuan smiled and cupped his hands in greeting:

"Fellow Daoist Fen, we cannot tell you the location of this cave for the time being, unless you agree to cooperate with us."

Suppressing his urge to attack immediately, Fen Wuji asked, "Tell me about the situation of that cave first."

Li Songxuan glanced at Cang Jilan beside him, and Cang Jilan nodded.

Li Songxuan then said:
"My fellow Daoist should know that the hidden caves within the Immortal Realm's secret realm are usually concealed by immortal restrictions, right?"

Fen Wuji said somewhat impatiently, "Say what you want to say all at once."

Li Songxuan wasn't angry and continued:

"The cave we discovered shouldn't be considered a cave, because it wasn't covered by any immortal restrictions; it's more like the ruins of an immortal sect."

As he said this, a look of fervor appeared on Li Songxuan's face.

In the Immortal Realm, the significance of the ruins of a sect is self-evident.

Even if this immortal sect has been destroyed, the value of what remains inside is immeasurable.

This is a discovery that has never been made since the opening of the Immortal Realm Secret Realm.

Upon hearing this, Fen Wuji's expression froze for a moment, then he narrowed his eyes: "Are you telling the truth?"

Even he was stunned by the news.

Cang Jilan, who was standing nearby, spoke up:

"Senior Fen, do you think we have any reason to deceive you?"

Fen Wuji then asked:
"Since there are no immortal restrictions to protect you, why don't you just explore on your own? Why do you need to come to me for cooperation?"

Li Songxuan explained:
"Although that place isn't protected by any immortal restrictions, it's extremely dangerous inside. We encountered over a dozen Void Refinement level evil beasts as soon as we entered, including three half-step Dao Integration level evil beasts,"

"Our strength alone is not enough to explore that place, which is why we came to Fellow Daoist Fen for cooperation."

"Three evil beasts at the half-step Dao Integration level?" Fen Wuji's heart skipped a beat.

The strength of the evil beasts in the Immortal Realm Secret Realm far surpasses that of cultivators of the same realm, and they are very difficult to kill. Even if he encounters an evil beast at the half-step Dao Integration level, he must be careful.

Not to mention three evil beasts at the half-step Dao Integration level.

But soon, Fen Wuji thought of another problem, and he looked at Cang Jilan and asked:

"Why don't you go and cooperate with your own Sea Fork tribe? What are you doing here with me?"

Upon hearing this, Cang Jilan smiled wryly and said:
“Senior, if I bring people from my clan over, how much do you think I’ll get? My uncles probably won’t even give me a chance to go in.”

"Moreover, Senior Li is also here. We discovered that immortal sect ruin together."

After listening to Cang Jilan's explanation, Fen Wuji understood.

Even the Sea Fork tribe couldn't be of one mind.

Once the other half-step Dao Integration cultivators of the Sea Fork Clan learn of this Immortal Sect ruins, Cang Jilan won't get much of what's inside.

"How about it? If you agree to cooperate with us, senior, you can get 30% of the things in that sect's territory."

Cang Jilan said sincerely.

Fen Wuji shook his head: "Thirty percent is too little, at least sixty percent!"

Upon hearing this, both Cang Jilan and Li Songxuan frowned.

Li Songxuan said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist Fen is far too greedy. If you are willing not to cooperate, then we will take our leave."

"Speak," Li Songxuan said, preparing to leave with his men. Fen Wuji replied, "Fifty percent!"

Li Songxuan's expression remained unchanged:
"At most forty percent, fellow Daoist, do not push your luck any further!"

Fen Wuji sneered:
"Okay, 40% done, 40% done. Please wait a moment, I need to explain something to the others first."

After saying that, Fen Wuji returned the way he came.

After Fen Wuji left, both Li Songxuan and Cang Jilan's expressions darkened.

"Hmph, this Fen Wuji is indeed a greedy and insatiable person!"

Cang Jilan spoke with a grim expression.

Li Songxuan's expression remained unchanged: "We are merely using this person's power to help us clear out those evil beasts. He is the only one in the entire Immortal Realm who is most suitable to cooperate with us."

"Besides, with Your Highness's treasure here, there's no need to worry about this person causing any trouble."

Cang Jilan smiled and said, "Although my treasure is powerful, it still requires Senior Li's help. Please rest assured, if there is a Dao Integration opportunity in that sect's territory, I will definitely give it to you first."

Li Songxuan smiled and cupped his hands in thanks: "Thank you very much, Your Highness."

Although Li Songxuan had a smile on his face, there was a coldness deep in his eyes.

Fen Wuji quickly returned to the location of the Immortal Forbidden Zone. He said to one of his disciples, "You stay here and guard this place. If the senior comes out, tell him about the Immortal Sect ruins."

Upon hearing this, the cultivator at the Refinement stage immediately nodded respectfully: "Master, rest assured, I will stay here and guard this place."

After explaining the situation, Fen Wuji didn't linger and immediately left with the others.

half a month later.

Inside the hidden cave, Chen Feng was sitting cross-legged on a stone platform.

Strands of the laws of power constantly emerged around him.

At this moment, there are already more than nine hundred Laws of Force around Chen Feng, just a little bit away from the one thousand Laws of Force needed to break through to the mid-stage of Void Refinement.

Chen Feng absorbed the surrounding immortal energy at an extremely rapid pace.

Two hours later, the surrounding immortal energy was completely exhausted.

Meanwhile, the number of threads of law surrounding Chen Feng successfully broke through to one thousand.

After the threads of law reached the thousandth level, Chen Feng's primordial spirit began a special qualitative change.

The primordial spirit is growing at an extremely rapid pace, and all one thousand laws have been integrated into it. These laws are constantly moving within the primordial spirit like living things.

Finally, after the primordial spirit underwent a qualitative change to a certain limit, the light on the primordial spirit suddenly shone brightly.

"I actually broke through to the mid-stage of the Void Refinement Realm just like that," Chen Feng felt somewhat dazed.

A cultivator at the Void Refinement stage can break through to the mid-stage of Void Refinement by condensing a thousand strands of law.

A thousand steps is a hurdle, and Chen Feng never expected that he would break through it in such a short time.

It should be noted that for an ordinary early-stage Void Refinement cultivator to break through to the mid-stage Void Refinement, it would take at least several thousand years to condense threads of law.

But he accomplished it in just two months.

Although he absorbed the immortal energy from several hidden caves in the past two months, he also consumed nearly thirty spiritual items that helped him comprehend the laws.

But the speed of this breakthrough was still frighteningly fast.

Throughout the history of the nine star regions, probably no one has ever cultivated at such a speed.

This made Chen Feng wonder if he was cheating.

“Fen Wuji told me before that once a cultivator has absorbed a certain amount of immortal energy, they can no longer absorb it, but I haven’t felt any limit.”

"Could it be because my primordial spirit is special?"

His primordial spirit is different from that of other cultivators.

When he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, his primordial spirit was constructed from stellar energy.

Chen Feng can only attribute his ability to absorb immortal energy without limit to the special nature of his primordial spirit.

Although he was puzzled by how quickly his strength had improved, the improvement still put him in a great mood.

Even if I don't gain anything from this trip to the Immortal Realm, I've still made a huge profit.

After reaching the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm, Chen Feng could clearly feel that his strength had increased significantly.

An increase of 30% is definitely possible.

Don't underestimate this 30% figure; it represents Chen Feng's overall strength, which has long since reached the Dao Integration level.

The breakthrough in his cultivation realm didn't significantly increase his current strength.

This breakthrough to the mid-stage is more about improving his control over the laws and increasing his divine sense.

According to Chen Feng's estimate, the range of his divine sense had increased by at least another 100,000 miles.

Besides that, there are changes in the Star Realm.

With the advancement of his cultivation realm, his Star Domain has become much stronger than before.

Of course, this is only an improvement in one's level.

With the help of Fen Wuji, Hai Ji, and others over the past few months, he has entered a total of six cave dwellings.

These caves varied in size, and the harvests were quite plentiful.

Even after using up more than thirty of the spiritual objects that allowed him to comprehend the laws of nature, he still had more than twenty left.

Besides that, there are all sorts of magical treasures.

They obtained four near-heavenly treasures, as well as various other invaluable materials.

The most valuable of these was the magical technique he obtained from the stone wall of a cave.

This magical technique is called the Heavenly Eye.

The effects of this technique are extremely mysterious; it is a kind of divination-like magical method.

Simply think of what you want to know in your mind, and you can activate this technique to see it.

However, he has not yet cultivated this immortal technique, and its specific effects are still unknown.

The only problem is that casting this technique requires a large amount of immortal energy.

However, having entered so many caves, his primordial spirit had accumulated a considerable amount of immortal energy, so using this immortal technique a few times was not a problem.

"We haven't found the cave that Yinyin mentioned yet, which is a problem," Chen Feng pondered.

He hadn't forgotten about Yin Yin.

The Soul-Stabilizing Dew is something Yin Yin needs, but despite entering so many hidden caves, she hasn't found this spiritual item.

"Take your time. As long as this cave is still within the Immortal Realm's secret realm, I will find it."

Chen Feng stood up and then disappeared from the spot.

Outside the cave.

As soon as Chen Feng appeared, the Void Refinement cultivators who were waiting there immediately bowed respectfully.

"I've met the master!"

The cultivators at the Void Refinement stage were all extremely respectful, showing no arrogance whatsoever. After all, even their master treated Chen Feng with utmost respect.

"I remember your name is Tang Ji," Chen Feng asked.

Upon hearing this, Tang Ji's face immediately lit up with joy, and he quickly said:

"That's right, my name is indeed Tang Ji, and I am Master's third disciple!"

Being remembered by the person before him filled Tang Ji with immense excitement; this was a true Dao-Merging Old Monster.

He would never normally even see such a person.

Chen Feng flicked his finger, and a pill flew to Tang Ji's front:
"This pill is for you."

Chen Feng never mistreats those who help him. Every time he comes out of his cave, he rewards those who helped him find it.

Upon seeing the pills before him, Tang Ji was overjoyed.

"Thank you, Master!"

He naturally recognized what the pill was; it was called the Purifying Spirit Pill, a unique pill found only within the Immortal Realm's secret realm.

This elixir appears in many hidden caves and has the effect of cleansing the primordial spirit.

A cleansed primordial spirit becomes more affinity-to-the-laws, greatly enhancing a cultivator's comprehension of the laws.

At this moment, Tang Ji also snapped out of his surprise and quickly said:
"Master, my master asked me to tell you something."

Tang Ji quickly recounted how Fen Wuji had gone to the Immortal Sect ruins.

"The ruins of an immortal sect?" Chen Feng immediately became interested.

He had visited many cave dwellings, but this was the first time he had ever heard of the ruins of a celestial sect.

A sect that can exist in the Immortal Realm must be an absolutely terrifying force.

Chen Feng had always been curious as to why the Immortal Realm Secret Realm had shattered.

But after visiting so many caves, he found no clues whatsoever.

Perhaps clues to the shattering of the Immortal Realm can be found within these immortal sect ruins. (End of Chapter)
