Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

The Seven-Star Peaches are rare treasures that even eighth-tier magical beasts would be moved by.

However, this item now belongs to me.

Han Feng's palm suddenly burst into a bluish-green flame, and then his figure vanished abruptly.

"Fire Owl!"

A giant flaming bird suddenly burst into bloom in the air, and the six-armed demon ape was blasted away by the firebird before it could react.

The body, already injured by Medusa, now emitted a burnt smell. The six-armed demon ape roared in pain, and a dark mark quietly appeared between its brows.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, wisps of black lines emerged from the six-armed demon ape's body, enveloping it.

唦！

The strange fire was dispelled by the black lines, and the injuries on the six-armed demon ape were healed in the blink of an eye.

"Demonic transformation?"

Han Feng stared in astonishment at the scene before him.

Isn't this a power of the dark race?

The Gama Empire actually has such magical beasts.

During his travels across the continent, Han Feng encountered many forbidden zones that were off-limits to humans.

For example, the Desolate Ancient Domain, the Black Abyss, the Purple Shattered Ruins...

That place is said to be an ancient battlefield, where the landscape was altered by a powerful force, making it unsuitable for human habitation.

The Dark Race originated from the Black Abyss, located on the edge of the Eastern Xuan Continent.

How did I end up in the Northwest Continent?

Han Feng was surprised, but the demonic ape had already begun the second round of battle, rushing towards him at an extremely fast speed.

After being corrupted, the opponent's power increased in every aspect, but unfortunately, he was still no match for Han Feng.

"One finger can open up the world!"

Han Feng gathered his battle qi, and the surrounding天地能量 (heaven and earth energy) instantly changed color, surging towards him.

Earth-rank advanced combat skill, Heavenly Origin Finger.

A massive, solid index finger descended from the sky, its force shaking the surrounding area for miles.

"open!"

Han Feng roared, and the six-armed demonic ape was immediately pressed down on the mountain by the giant finger, and the black lines on its body were wiped away one by one.

Inside the Monster Mountain Range, a brilliant white light briefly erupted.

After a moment of silence, Han Feng landed next to the corpse of the six-armed demon ape and probed its body with his soul power.

Besides a sixth-tier magic core with a metallic attribute, Han Feng also discovered a strange fragment inside the six-armed demon ape's stomach.

After taking both out, Han Feng directly sensed the demonic battle aura on the strange fragments.

The strange flames shot out and attached themselves to the eerie fragments, gradually dispelling the demonic battle aura on them.

The fragment fell into Han Feng's hand. He looked at it carefully and thought it looked like the blade of a sword, but it was badly broken, with only a small piece broken off.

Without paying much attention, Han Feng put away the two items and flew towards the interior of the cave.

His real target was the Seven Star Peaches inside.

Chapter 43 Star Map

Inside the cave, there is first a long, dark stone wall, and after passing through it, there is a spacious cavern where moonlight shines down and illuminates a clear spring.

The light reflected from the spring water illuminated the interior of the cave.

On that huge peach tree, there was only one large, bright red fruit.

Seven golden stars adorn the fruit.

This is the Seven-Star Peach, a top-grade seventh-tier medicinal herb, possessing the powerful effects of reshaping one's physical constitution and prolonging lifespan.

Han Feng was excited because the Seven-Star Peach was something extremely rare at this stage that could restore his aptitude.

Eighth-grade pills can restore aptitude, but with his current strength and wealth, he is not yet able to refine them.

These Seven Star Peaches are just right for him!

"They're almost ripe, no wonder that demonic ape was so impatient."

Han Feng stared at the Seven Star Peaches, silently calculating the time.

When the full moon shone in the sky, the power of the moon and the power of the stars surged into the cave together, and the Seven Star Peaches burst out with golden-red light, instantly filling the air with a sweet and fragrant aroma.

Han Feng immediately stepped forward, picked the Seven Star Peach, and swallowed it in a few bites.

Such edible delicacies can be swallowed directly; the remaining kernels can still be used as a seventh-grade medicinal ingredient.

The Seven-Star Peaches are digested very quickly. As soon as Han Feng swallowed one, he felt a continuous surge of heat within his body.

"The essence of life is being enhanced; the strength of the meridians and the hardness of the bones are also improving; most importantly..."

Han Feng clenched his fist, and the surrounding spatial energy instantly distorted.

"I've reached the threshold of the Dou Zong realm!"

Given Han Feng's current aptitude, it would normally take him at least a year to reach the threshold of Dou Zong.

The advancement to a higher realm is slow and depends on aptitude and opportunity.

Some cultivators may take ten or even several decades to have a chance of touching this barrier.

Otherwise, Medusa wouldn't have risked everything.

"My physical condition has improved significantly."

Han Feng spoke lightly, saying that he could break through to the Dou Zong realm at any time.

However, he is not in a hurry to break through.

For prodigies, reaching the Dou Zong level is never a difficult hurdle; the important thing is how to accumulate strength and resources.

As the starlight continued to fall, Han Feng vaguely sensed that his body was absorbing this power.

It is said that consuming the Seven Star Peaches may awaken a constitution called "Seven Star Body".

It's not very strong; it's in the mid-range.

Han Feng was lucky; he encountered that extremely rare opportunity and awakened the "Seven Star Body," which allows him to absorb the power of stars.

"Just so-so."

Han Feng experienced it firsthand and then gave his evaluation.

The Seven Star Body couldn't affect his plans; it would be more likely if it were the "Zhou Tian Xing Chen Body," ranked fifth on the Sacred Body Ranking.

Han Feng now treats this physique as a toy, because it is not even as good as the "acquired fire spirit body" refined by different fires.

After looking around and finding nothing of value, Han Feng flew out of the cave.

When seventh-grade medicinal herbs mature, they emit a strange phenomenon that attracts many powerful individuals. However, Han Feng took the food too quickly, so the phenomenon did not last long.

Arriving beside the corpse of the six-armed demon ape, Han Feng enveloped its entire body with his battle qi and then stored it in his Nether Sea Storage Ring.

He needs to go back and investigate why the dark races are here.

After doing all this, Han Feng returned to Medusa and Cai'er's hideout.

Cai'er channeled her fighting spirit into Medusa, accelerating the digestion of the healing pills, and Medusa's complexion has improved considerably.

"Han Feng, are you alright?"

"never mind."

Han Feng smiled and then sat down next to the two of them.

"I'll rest here for today. I'll go investigate the area after dawn tomorrow."

"Ah."

Cai'er nodded, then gently stroked Medusa, who was sleeping with her head resting on her thigh.

Han Feng took out the strange fragment that resembled a piece of the sword and examined it in his hand.

The demonic battle aura above is very strong; even using a different kind of fire to burn it can only suppress it.

Han Feng could sense that even if the strange fire was removed, the demonic battle qi on the fragment would still be released.

Was the six-armed demon ape corrupted because it accidentally ingested this fragment, and was it not actually a dark race?

Otherwise, crossing such a long distance would be quite inconceivable.

Han Feng added several more layers of strange fire seals to completely seal the fragments before throwing them into his storage ring.

He had many things like this in his previous life that seemed very mysterious but were actually useless.

But most of the secrets remained unsolved until his death.

He didn't care much about it; he just treated it as a collectible.

Han Feng took out the golden pages he had obtained from the amber earlier, intending to study them further.

However, this time, the moment his hands touched the golden pages, the mysterious patterns on them emitted a faint starlight.

"This is... the Star Route?"

Han Feng's eyes widened, and he finally understood what was on the golden pages.

This is a map, but not a map of the mainland; it's a map of the stars.

The endless stars overhead are what this map depicts.

Even many powerful individuals who have reached the Dou Zun level have very little experience exploring the boundless void.

Therefore, the star map in Han Feng's hand is worth at least an eighth-grade pill.

Han Feng continued to study the map and vaguely noticed some stars marked with three colors.

Cyan, silver, purple.

Just as he was about to continue observing, he suddenly noticed that the light on the golden pages gradually faded, returning to its previous appearance.

"Ok?"

Han Feng frowned. He had already memorized the route on the map, but the patterns he had seen earlier were clearly not fully displayed; most of them were still shrouded in mist, and now they had suddenly reverted to their original state...

A thought flashed through Han Feng's mind, and he quickly realized something.

After receiving the golden page in the afternoon, I tried everything to make it work.

The most noticeable change in myself now is simply improved aptitude, but that's definitely not the main reason.

The stars... Could it be because of the "Seven Stars"?

Just now in the cave, when Han Feng awakened his physique, he spontaneously absorbed a portion of the power of the stars.

So, is the power of the stars the key to unlocking the map?

Han Feng quickly circulated his internal energy on the spot, actively absorbing the power of the stars.

Cai'er, who was standing to the side, saw seven golden stars shimmering faintly behind Han Feng, which were magnificent and beautiful.

The starlight transformed into energy and flowed into Han Feng's body.

hum!

The golden pages lit up again.

However, only a small portion of the lights were on, while the rest remained dim, possibly due to insufficient star power.

After absorbing the power of the stars for half an hour, Han Feng had a basic understanding of the principles behind this power.

Compared to ordinary celestial energy, the power of stars is much purer.

If the power of the stars can be used effectively, it can be a powerful trump card.

He glanced at the golden pages; he had already memorized the parts that were lit up, but he couldn't do anything about the parts that weren't lit up.
