Chapter 865
Immortal Arts
In the Weiyang Starfield, at the vortex of the starry sky.
At this moment, hundreds of French ships are anchored here.
In front of these Dharma ships stood a group of powerful figures.
Leading the group was Wei Zhou, the current Grand Elder of the Star Palace, a powerful expert at the peak of the Void Refinement stage.
Beside the Grand Elder of the Star Palace were Jiang Xiao and other leaders of various major forces.
These people are all forces that offended Xingfengmen in the past.
At this moment, everyone's expressions were extremely solemn.
They already knew about the events in the Qian Yuan Star Region and the Ling tide Star Region.
The fact that these two powerful star regions were subdued in such a short time made everyone even more wary of Xingfeng Sect.
Moreover, they have also received news that the people from the Fire Brahma Starfield and the Void Spirit Clan are about to arrive in the Unending Starfield.
Clearly, the Weiyang Star Region is their next target.
Therefore, Wei Zhou and his men waited here in advance.
They were also afraid that Xingfengmen would defeat them one by one, so they wanted to unite as soon as possible to put pressure on Xingfengmen.
"Elder, have we not been able to contact the Star Lord yet?" Jiang Xiao asked the Elder of the Star Palace.
The others also turned their gazes toward the Grand Elder of the Star Palace.
The current Weiyang Starfield doesn't even have a single half-step Dao Integration expert.
The Grand Elder of the Star Palace shook his head:
"The Star Lord hasn't contacted us for a long time; he should still be in the Dinghai Star Region."
The Grand Elder of the Star Palace also looked worried at this moment.
Back then, the Star Palace issued a bounty, offering a reward for Chen Beijing across the entire star field. Moreover, Li Songxuan had also attacked Chen Feng back then, so this grudge was no ordinary one.
Seeing the worried expressions on everyone's faces, Jiang Xiao said:
"Gentlemen, there's no need to worry. With so many forces here, even if Xingfeng Sect is domineering, would they dare to kill us all?"
"Moreover, we have been spreading the news of our arrival in the star field for the past few days. Now, all the cultivation stars in the star field are watching. If Xingfeng Sect dares to attack us, they will immediately become the target of everyone's criticism!"
Jiang Xiao didn't just sit and wait during this time.
He not only won over all the forces that had offended Xingfeng Sect in the past, but also some major forces, all in order to get these forces to stand with them against Xingfeng Sect.
In addition, he sent people to spread many rumors in the star field, saying that Xingfengmen would destroy the entire Weiyang Star Field.
If something happens to them, the entire Weiyang Star Region will inevitably fall into chaos.
He believed that with these two points, Xingfengmen wouldn't dare to do anything to them.
Upon hearing Jiang Xiao's words, everyone relaxed.
Indeed, with so many forces united, even Xingfeng Sect would have to think twice.
Just then, from within the distant starry vortex, one after another, magical ships flew out.
Looking at these giant magic ships and the powerful figures on them, Jiang Xiao and the others all had serious expressions.
The Void Spirit Clan is alright; their number of powerful individuals is about the same as that of their Weiyang Star Region.
But the Fire Brahma Star Domain is different; it is one of the top powers among the nine star domains.
Moreover, their Weiyang Star Region doesn't even have a single half-step Dao Integration expert right now.
The two sides are completely different in strength.
The Dharma ship in the distance had clearly spotted Jiang Xiao and his group, and quickly stopped near the star vortex.
The Grand Elder of the Star Palace led his men forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and said:
"Elder Wei Zhou of the Star Palace, along with a host of forces, is here to respectfully welcome Senior Fen and Senior Xu to our Weiyang Star Region."
The others also bowed and greeted him.
The news that Fen Wuji and Xu Wuji had become the vanguard of Xingfeng Sect had already spread throughout the major star regions, and everyone knew that these two forces now represented Xingfeng Sect.
Not long after, Fen Wuji and Xu Wuji brought Ge Yunxuan out.
Fen Wuji coldly glanced at Wei Zhou, Jiang Xiao, and the others below.
With just that one glance, Wei Zhou and the other Void Refinement cultivators felt a chill run down their spines.
The Half-Step Dao Integration Realm, though only half a step, is already enough to completely crush a Void Refinement cultivator.
Otherwise, Li Songxuan wouldn't have been able to suppress the entire Weiyang Starfield with his half-step Dao Integration strength.
The Grand Elder of the Star Palace remained bowing in a gesture of respect.
Ke Fen Wuji did not suggest that they get up.
After a moment, Fen Wuji's voice came: "Elder Ge, are these the same forces that targeted your sect back then?"
Ge Yunxuan glanced at Jiang Xiao and the others, then nodded:
"Yes, that's right."
Fen Wuji immediately waved his hand.
Soon, a group of Void Refinement cultivators flew down from the Dharma Ship and immediately surrounded Wei Zhou and his companions.
Upon seeing this scene, Wei Zhou, Jiang Xiao, and the others were all taken aback, as there were more than a hundred Void Refinement cultivators surrounding them.
The enemy outnumbered them by more than three times, not to mention that they also had two half-step Dao Integration Realm experts.
Jiang Xiao asked Fen Wuji:
"Senior Fen, what do you mean by this?"
Fen Wuji was too lazy to pay any attention to Jiang Xiao; he simply stood aside and waited.
These people were naturally handed over to Xingfengmen to deal with. He clearly understood the role of a henchman: a henchman should do his job well.
Ge Yunxuan looked at Jiang Xiao and said:
"It seems that the Jiang Clan, Xing Palace, Wanxiang Sect, and Giant Spirit Clan have all arrived."
Seeing Ge Yunxuan, a Golden Core cultivator, announce the name of their faction, caused some surprise and uncertainty among the people present.
Jiang Xiao asked:
Who are you?
Ge Yunxuan spoke calmly: "Elder of Xingfeng Sect, Ge Yunxuan."
Upon hearing that they were from Xingfeng Sect, Jiang Xiao immediately smiled:
"So it's Elder Ge. I am Jiang Xiao from the Jiang Clan. Your clan was once considered a powerful force in my Weiyang Star Region. We will have to rely on your clan a lot in the future."
Ge Yunxuan completely ignored Jiang Xiao's compliments and instead asked:
"Clan Chief Jiang, have you forgotten about the time you chased after my sect leader?"
Jiang Xiao seemed to have anticipated this, and quickly said:
"What happened back then was just a misunderstanding. It was caused by a conflict between a junior member of the clan and your sect leader. We have brought the culprit here to give your sect an explanation!"
"Bring them up here," Jiang Xiao said coldly to those behind him.
Soon, dozens of cultivators were escorted over.
These cultivators included not only members of the Jiang clan, but also people from the Star Palace and other forces.
However, these people were not very powerful, and they were obviously made scapegoats.
Although they were scapegoats, some of them were of relatively high status.
For example, Jiang Yunchen was right there in the crowd. At this moment, Jiang Yunchen's limbs had been broken and his cultivation had been destroyed.
Jiang Xiao clasped his hands in a fist salute to Ge Yunxuan:
"Elder Ge, the grudge between my Jiang clan and Sect Master Chen was caused by my rebellious son. Now that he has been crippled, your clan can deal with him as it pleases. My Jiang clan will also unconditionally cooperate with your clan in managing the Weiyang Star Region."
Other factions also expressed their support, even offering some compensation, demonstrating their sincerity.
It's a foregone conclusion that Xingfeng Sect will take over the Weiyang Star Region; the Weiyang Star Region has no power to resist.
They just wanted to resolve their grievances with Xingfengmen.
Jiang Yunchen's laughter then rang out:
"Ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous!"
Jiang Yunchen's gaze toward Jiang Xiao and the others was filled with resentment.
He is now extremely disappointed with his family.
In his view, although Chen Beijing was strong, he was not afraid of anything; at worst, he would just die.
But his own family, in order to quell their grudges, crippled him and then handed him over to Xingfeng Sect for disposal.
This filled me with resentment and anger.
"You unfilial son! Shut up!" Jiang Xiao's eyes turned cold, and then he slapped him across the face.
Jiang Yunchen's mouth was immediately smashed, and he could no longer utter a single word.
Jiang Xiao was also afraid that Jiang Yunchen would say something reckless and cause trouble for their Jiang clan.
After everyone expressed their opinions, they all looked at Ge Yunxuan, waiting for his answer.
This time, they were truly showing their sincerity, and even took the initiative to help Xingfeng Sect take over the Weiyang Star Region. Fen Wuji and Xu Wuji watched silently from the side without saying a word.
Everything still requires Ge Yunxuan to make the decision.
After a moment, Ge Yunxuan's voice came: "Not enough."
Although it was just three simple words, they made Jiang Xiao and the others' faces darken.
Grand Elder Wei Zhou of the Star Palace asked:
"Elder Ge, do you have any other conditions?"
Ge Yunxuan shook his head:
"From the moment you began hunting down our sect leader, all conditions became irrelevant. Anyone who offends the sect leader of Xingfeng Sect will only face death!"
Ge Yunxuan's calm voice resonated throughout the room.
Everyone expected Ge Yunxuan to be so direct.
A mere Golden Core cultivator actually wants them all dead!
Jiang Xiao said in a deep voice:
"Elder Ge! Although we did chase after Sect Leader Chen back then, it was just a misunderstanding, and Sect Leader Chen is fine now, isn't he? Does your sect really intend to do something like this, exterminate them all?"
Ge Yunxuan was too lazy to pay attention to Jiang Xiao anymore, and instead looked at Fen Wuji beside him and said:
"Senior Fen, thank you for your trouble."
Fen Wuji smiled faintly: "Elder Ge and I don't need to stand on ceremony. Should we kill them all, or arrest them?"
Ge Yunxuan thought for a moment and then said:
"Arrest them all. I'm taking them back inside to deal with them. If any of them resist, just kill them."
Fen Wuji nodded, and without further ado, he waved his right hand.
The cultivators at the Void Refinement stage immediately rushed towards Jiang Xiao and the others.
Jiang Xiao and the others immediately panicked.
Jiang Xiao shouted:
"What's happening here is being watched by the entire Weiyang Star Region. Aren't you afraid that what you're doing will cause turmoil throughout the entire Weiyang Star Region?"
However, Ge Yunxuan didn't care about Jiang Xiao's threats at all.
Is there unrest in the Weiyang Star Region?
Ge Yunxuan didn't care about that; he would just kill anyone who disagreed.
When your strength reaches a certain level, you don't need to consider these things at all.
Ge Yunxuan was able to climb to his current position in Xingfengmen because his style of doing things was similar to Chen Feng's.
If it were someone else handling this matter, they might actually give it a second thought, but Ge Yunxuan wouldn't even consider it.
When Jiang Xiao and the others realized that their threats were ineffective, they immediately understood that things were beyond saving.
The group began to use various methods to try and escape.
They wouldn't just sit and wait to die; if they were caught and taken back to Xingfeng Sect, they would definitely suffer a fate worse than death.
However, their number of powerful individuals was far less than that of the Fireburning Starfield and the Void Spirit Clan, and some cultivators who wanted to escape were intercepted before they could get very far.
A great battle soon broke out in this starry sky.
At first, Jiang Xiao and the others resisted fiercely.
But as one powerful figure after another fell, they realized that resistance was futile in the face of absolute power.
Moreover, Fen Wuji and Xu Wuji were keeping a close watch, ready to secretly kill anyone who tried to escape using secret techniques or treasures.
As Jiang Yunchen watched one Jiang clan expert after another fall, a mocking smile appeared on his blood-stained face.
He had actually anticipated this outcome long ago.
Based on his understanding of Chen Beijing, it was virtually impossible to persuade him to give up his revenge through any means.
Moreover, their Jiang clan had repeatedly pursued and killed the other party.
In his view, the only chance of survival was to escape the Weiyang Starfield as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, his own family members couldn't see things clearly at all.
It's laughable that they think they can prevent Xingfengmen from retaliating just because of these advantages!
The battle did not last long, ending after only half an hour.
Half of Jiang Xiao's men were killed, while the remaining half all chose to surrender.
As for the Jiang clan's high-ranking members, only one Void Refinement cultivator survived; the rest were all killed on the spot.
The situation is similar for other factions.
Ge Yunxuan then ordered the Xingfengmen people to take away all those who had surrendered.
Xu Wuji looked at Ge Yunxuan and said:
"Elder Ge, let's split up from now on. We'll leave the Jiang Clan and the Sea Spirit Clan to the Void Spirit Clan."
Those people were just some of the higher-ups in these forces.
Many of these forces haven't arrived yet, so it's natural that we need to clean them up.
Fen Wuji said, "Then leave the Star Palace and the other forces to me."
Ge Yunxuan nodded:
"Then I'll have to trouble you two seniors."
Soon, the fleet of Dharma ships split into several groups and began heading towards various parts of the Weiyang Starfield.
A month later.
Dinghai Starfield, the Xingfeng Sect branch on the Mingzhou Continent.
Inside Chen Fengdong's residence.
The immortal corpse puppet, dressed in a moon-colored long dress, sat cross-legged in the cave, with wisps of immortal energy appearing around it.
Surrounded by immortal energy, the immortal corpse puppet's exquisite appearance was imbued with a special halo.
This makes the immortal corpse puppet look even more otherworldly.
A moment later, the immortal corpse puppet opened its eyes, and not only did stars shimmer within them, but seven-colored light also appeared.
"I didn't expect immortal techniques to be so difficult to cultivate." Chen Feng frowned.
For the past few months, he has been controlling the immortal corpse puppet to cultivate immortal techniques and absorb immortal energy.
His immortal energy has now recovered to 50%, but the absorption is very slow because there is very little immortal energy in the world.
He had only mastered one immortal technique, which was far more complex than he had imagined, completely different from the supernatural powers and spells of the human race.
It must follow a specific meridian pathway.
Chen Feng then stood up and opened the cave door.
His cave dwelling on the continent of Mingzhou is located on a solitary mountain peak, which is also the place with the richest spiritual energy of heaven and earth on the continent of Mingzhou.
The weather was somewhat gloomy at the moment, and a light rain was falling from the sky.
Chen Feng stretched out his finger and gently pointed forward.
This gesture did not produce any energy fluctuations, nor did it alter the primordial energy or spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
But then a bizarre scene unfolded!
All the rain within a radius of several miles was frozen in the air, unable to fall even a drop.
Not only the rain, but everything around seemed to have frozen in time.
Several breaths passed before everything returned to normal.
"This magic is truly bizarre," Chen Feng thought to himself.
The magical technique he learned was called the Void Fixation Technique.
Once this technique is used, it can freeze the spacetime of a region, and even freeze the laws of nature, making it extremely terrifying.
The prerequisite for learning this technique is to master immortal energy, and it can only be done with immortal energy at the level of an immortal lord.
This space-fixing technique would be considered one of the most advanced immortal techniques even among the immortals.
Chen Feng spent so much time learning this one immortal technique, and he's only just begun.
The ultimate technique of fixing the sky can even freeze the terrifying starry sky for tens of thousands of miles.
However, this technique consumes a great deal of immortal energy, and he only had enough immortal energy in his body to perform it twice. (End of Chapter)
