After Feng Jun handed over the equipment, he returned to Luohua. The bidirectional gate was temporarily closed, and he thought to take a break for a few days while helping Sofia stabilize her cultivation level.

However, some people are destined never to have peace. Starting the next day, Beauty Lin frequently contacted Luohua. Obviously, yesterday’s results made them want more.

Feng Jun simply ignored her. Later, Beauty Lin sent a message through Luo Yuhuan to Gazi, hoping Luohua could provide basic "language and text" information. She thought the request was not high but of great significance to Huaxia.

Feng Jun received the news, shook his head with mixed emotions, and said, "Have Luo Yuhuan tell her that I’ve already stated that I would consider it under suitable conditions, but the conditions are not mature yet."

Gazi nodded, then thought for a moment and asked, "Brother Jun, using the Jade Slip to transmit information, can that achieve this?"

"Are you the boss or am I the boss?" Feng Jun glared at him irritably, "When I say no, it means no. Do you really think agreeing to this request will end things? The troubles that follow could drive you insane... I’ll consider it once the conditions are mature."

Gazi was startled and quickly turned to leave—Brother Jun’s pressure was increasing, and he didn’t dare say much.

However, when he reached the door, he finally mustered courage to ask, "Then... when will the conditions be mature?"

"How should I know?" Feng Jun snorted coldly, "If you really want a timeline, I’ll give you a hard target... when you advance to the Exalted Dust stage, I’ll teach you how to craft Jade Slips."

Gazi left with his head down, while Feng Jun shook his head and sighed lightly.

Of course, he could create a Jade Slip with human language from the Insect World, but right now he truly didn’t have the spare time—he’s so busy he doesn’t even have time for Void Treasure Hunt. If it weren’t for needing to advance, he wouldn’t even have taken this long break.

As for being selfish? He thinks that’s not fair. Admittedly, he is busy cultivating and collecting cultivation resources, causing him not to have spare energy, but he’s already given Guojia many good things, is digesting them bit by bit really that hard?

First develop relatively advanced items, then further progress. Huaxia’s tradition has always been self-reliant. Attempting to achieve Summit Star’s technology in one step is unrealistic, the process is also leapfrog and could foster impetuous habits.

Being ahead step by step is fine, and it is solid progress. If you take too big steps, you’ll pull something loose!

After another day, Beauty Lin stopped Director Mei returning to Luohua, presumably having received Luo Yuhuan’s feedback, and instead of harping on language and text, she raised another request.

She hoped to obtain more energy blocks—they wanted to test new weapons but lacked the energy blocks for power.

"I’m about to go mining for energy stones," Feng Jun helplessly complained, and then said, "Tell her, I have everything arranged, no need for her to rush. If she pushes more, she won’t get anything!"

After all, he’s rested for four days and feels quite bothered, so he picked a suitable time on the fifth day, opened the bidirectional gate, and also went to White Pebble Beach, planning to go directly to the Insect World if there’s nothing else.

But hoping for nothing to happen, how could things go so smoothly as one wishes? The moment he arrived, he found someone waiting—a cultivator from Yuangang Sect heard that Xuanhuang Sect had a True Immortal visit the Void, and they came to negotiate—they want to send someone as well.

Unfortunately, Hua Sheng, the True Immortal familiar with Feng Jun, is currently dealing with the Insect Race in the galaxy, and the visitor was a female True Immortal Feng Jun had never met before, who happened to be quite beautiful.

But Feng Jun stated, I can’t discuss this matter with you, and sending people into the Void requires a lot of energy. It’s best to send them in one batch. If you’ve missed this wave, then be early for the next one.

Then this female cultivator earnestly invited Feng Jun to the Insect Passage Entrance, saying there’s a Nascent Soul High Stage from Yuangang Sect there—if you want, I can even try to invite a True Sage, which should surely settle the matter, right?

As for Spirit Stones? That’s not a problem at all, we’ll double the offer. Yuangang Sect’s intention to visit the Void this time is purely for the experience, not seeking any profits, but to conduct some experiments.

She was quite sincere, and her reasons seemed understandable, but... let’s not even mention anything else, even if Yuangang Sect has a True Sage appearing, can Feng Jun really charge double?

Not taking True Sage lightly.

And Feng Jun thought even further—I must bring a couple more people to the depths of the Insect World even if I’m not taking anyone to the Void, right?

Therefore, this kind of thing, he really can’t agree to—not matter what, who to take and how to take them should be his decision!

After the female True Immortal haggled for a long time, she requested something simpler: take me alone into the depth of the Insect World, there should at least be no problem with this, right?

See, here it comes! Feng Jun, feeling rather helpless, said, "If it weren’t for all the previous bickering, bringing you over could have been negotiated, but playing strategies with me means I really can’t agree—I hate playing tactics the most!"

Any Mid-Stage Golden Core wouldn’t dare speak this way to an unfamiliar Nascent Soul—surviving might cost a layer of skin, but Feng Jun just said it like that.

Maybe some would think this guy has been too smooth sailing for so long and has become arrogant, but Feng Jun disagrees—he must firmly hold the line. If he directly confronts hard, it’s better than permanently becoming a tool guy. Such a line, once broken once, could be broken countless times!

The situation here is not over yet, and someone else has come. However, it’s Master Moran who has requested Chao Cheng, the True Immortal, to relay a message that his current state is very smooth, and he feels he might be able to form his Nascent Soul ahead of time. He’s not sure if this is an illusion but wants Feng Jun to come over to deduce the situation.

This matter... really makes one scratch their head. Feng Jun has certainly been cared for by Moran, so it’s no problem for him to deduce the situation—between friends, one shouldn’t be too calculative. However, logically speaking, even if Moran is forming his Nascent Soul, it shouldn’t be that soon.

Chao Cheng saw his difficulty and then expressed: Moran also knows that your main focus is in the Insect World now. He only asked me to pass the word after hearing you returned to White Pebble Beach, mainly worried that once you leave again, it might be uncertain when you could return.

Is this concern valid? It’s incredibly valid!

Without a second thought, Feng Jun directly heads to Yiyao Plate, conveniently bringing along the Nascent Soul High Stage True Immortal to Tianqin, it’s just a minor effort.

He deduced the situation and found that Moran’s adjustments were indeed better than expected, and upon further investigation, it turned out there was a mutated Heaven and Earth Treasure that resulted in better effects.

Case closed, of course he could leave, but before departing, he told Moran: I gave you the right prescription, but you grabbed the wrong medicine, so it’s your fault, not mine!

This time, the wrong medicine has benefitted you, that’s pure luck. But you need to understand, having a wrong medicine leading to a better result is one in ten thousand, don’t mistake the accidental for the inevitable.

"In any case, I’ve said all I have to say, take care of yourself," Feng Jun said and swiped his mobile phone, disappearing.

He actually doesn’t need to do that, a mobile phone has already merged into his body, but it’s just for show—creating some misconceptions appropriately assists in his safe development.

Coming to the Insect World, he didn’t go to the Stone Restroom but chose a footprint that was quite far away—a straight-line distance over three million kilometers, mainly worrying about possible changes.

The consequences of this change... it’s really hard to express. As soon as he appears, he finds a huge Flying Centipede ahead, and behind him, a reconnaissance ship.

"Damn it," Feng Jun hasn’t reacted yet, and the Flying Centipede already spat a mouthful of acid.

The reconnaissance ship behind him was quite civil, "tututut" with a soft hum, the large-caliber Gauss Organ Cannon directly sweeping at him.

Fortunately, the Flying Centipede was only Golden Core High Stage, and the Gauss Organ Cannon at most could only rip through the Golden Core High Stage defense.

Both sides thought they could cause considerable damage to the other, then were stunned... What the hell, a human figure suddenly appeared in the middle?

Before he teleported, Feng Jun indeed added no defense to himself—he never had that habit.

His habit is to choose a footprint that no one pays attention to, quietly land, and then start various actions. The key is to be discreet when entering, striving not to alert anyone.

But if he were to add various defense auras before starting to teleport, three uncertain factors would arise.

Firstly, some defense auras indeed have halos; infrared light invisible to the human eye doesn’t mean other animals can’t see it. If there’s an energy field, it might be detected, thwarting his pursuit of discretion.

Second, in certain domains, teleporting between planes, the defense may be directly nullified, and early preparations might not be effective.

The third point is adding defense will inevitably increase the energy consumption during teleportation. Feng Jun considers himself not too affluent, plus the influence of the first two points, he thinks it’s better to be cautious while teleporting.

Actually, there’s a fourth point; he believes he can swiftly retreat if sensing something amiss, so no need to consider adding defense—no matter how fast the attack can be, could it exceed a brother’s thought?

At the moment he felt something most unfavorable, he merely grabbed the Substitute Soul Puppet as a precaution.

In any case, he chose this option for many reasons, but when he found himself caught between the Insect Race and Human Race ship’s crossfire, he was somewhat bewildered: "Damn, can it even happen like this?"

He could mentally exit, the force of plane nullification wasn’t present anymore, but running away is still an option.

But he really didn’t expect upon entering the Insect World, facing such a situation of crossfire.

Especially the pitfall was, he wasn’t facing a frontal and rear crossfire; Outer Space combat was all-encompassing—beneath him was the Insect Race, above a Human Race warship.

This relatively novel combat method really couldn’t be fully adapted to, when he discovered enemies both above and below, it was a bit too late to mentally exit.

Dual attacks struck him squarely, with this human figure submerged in the corrosive flying liquid and Gauss Organ Cannon.
