All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

The crack in the sky disappeared, as if nothing had happened.

However, the remnant soul that Chu Fengmian was about to suppress in his hand was indeed destroyed.

This Qilin Mountain founder, is truly ruthless.

He knew that now he was billions of miles away, and the power transmitted over was no match for Chu Fengmian. He couldn’t even save the remnant soul, so he destroyed it.

If Chu Fengmian got hold of this remnant soul, he could extract memories from it and even learn countless secrets of the Qilin Mountain founder.

But now it has been personally destroyed by the founder of Qilin Mountain.

Chu Fengmian doesn’t even know the name of the Qilin Mountain founder now.

"What a pity."

Chu Fengmian shook his head, but he knew that at that moment, he couldn’t stop the Qilin Mountain founder.

The Qilin Mountain founder transmitted Spiritual Power from billions of miles away. If it really struck Chu Fengmian, even if Chu Fengmian gave it his all, he might still be injured.

After all, this was truly the action of a Heavenly Human Realm expert.

Under such circumstances, Chu Fengmian wanted to protect this remnant soul, but his heart was not equal to the task.

Through this confrontation, Chu Fengmian did ascertain one thing: the former Heavenly Human Realm experts from the Daluo Star Domain have indeed gone to other, very distant places.

The founder of Wuxing Sky is likely already fallen; not to mention Lin Wuxing and now the Qilin Mountain founder, none came in person.

They are most probably in incredibly distant places and unable to come at all.

Therefore, Chu Fengmian should not worry about Heavenly Human Realm experts causing trouble in the near future.

However, what’s most crucial for Chu Fengmian is to improve his strength. Those Heavenly Human Realm experts won’t come in the short term, but a day will come when Chu Fengmian will have to face them himself.

Only with sufficient strength can Chu Fengmian truly contend with those Heavenly Human Realm experts.

Once Chu Fengmian subdues all three major forces, he will seek the opportunity to break through the Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor and step into the Half-Step Heavenly Human Realm.

Chu Fengmian’s Realm is already at the Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor, only a step away from the Half-Step Heavenly Human Realm.

Though it is just a step away, for Chu Fengmian, breaking through is easier said than done.

Even ordinary Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperors find it incredibly hard to step into the Half-Step Heavenly Human Realm.

Among dozens of Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperors, only one can step into the Half-Step Heavenly Human Realm.

The difficulty is self-evident.

Even a genius like Qing Meng doesn’t have the absolute confidence to step into the Half-Step Heavenly Human Realm.

What’s more, for Chu Fengmian, the difficulty of breaking through is a thousandfold, ten thousandfold more challenging than others.

Chu Fengmian can’t even imagine how difficult it will be for him to break through to the Half-Step Heavenly Human Realm; he probably needs great fortune to accomplish it.

It might even be necessary for Chu Fengmian to leave the Daluo Star Domain, go to other star domains, and find a chance to break through to the Half-Step Heavenly Human Realm.

But before that, Chu Fengmian must subdue the three major forces one by one.

Looking at the Qilin Continent in front of him, Chu Fengmian noticed that the entire Qilin Continent had no living beings left, only a few Qilin Mountain elders still alive.

All the Qilin Mountain disciples were sacrificed in blood by the Lin Shu Ancient Emperor, utterly destroyed.

"We are willing to submit."

The few Qilin Mountain elders, upon seeing Chu Fengmian’s gaze, hurriedly kneeled and said.

The Qilin Mountain founder couldn’t stop Chu Fengmian; how could they dare to resist him now?

"Alright, from now on, Qilin Mountain will cease to exist. Join the Sword Dao Sect as the most ordinary disciples. As long as you serve the Sword Dao Sect well and establish merits, your positions can also be elevated."

Chu Fengmian condensed Spiritual Power and placed restrictions on those few Qilin Mountain elders, before directly sending them to the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm.

Meanwhile, Chu Fengmian and Qing Meng headed towards the last of the three major forces, Canghai Capital.

Concerning Canghai Capital, Chu Fengmian didn’t have as much enmity as with Qilin Mountain or Wuxing Sky.

Much of the reason was due to Princess Hai.

Previously, Princess Hai had warned Chu Fengmian about the impending attack from the Blade Saint of Wuxing, saving Chu Fengmian’s life.

Although Chu Fengmian later spared Princess Hai’s father, King Biyun Hai, there is some acquaintance after all.

If Canghai Capital is sensible, Chu Fengmian doesn’t intend to make a move.

But if Canghai Capital dares to oppose Chu Fengmian, he will not show mercy to enemies.

Chu Fengmian aims to consolidate the entire Daluo Star Domain into the Sword Dao Sect, allowing no opposing forces to exist.

Their Tunneling Light flew across the starry sky and suddenly, within an hour, a vivid blue continent appeared in Chu Fengmian’s view.

It wasn’t a blue continent; rather, the continent before him was ninety-nine percent endless ocean. The actual land was sparse and divided into small islands.

It seemed like an ocean floating amidst the infinite Star River.

"Canghai Continent, this is where Canghai Capital’s lair is located."

Chu Fengmian had already heard that the continent where Canghai Capital resides is almost entirely ocean, and now he finally sees it.

In such an environment, generations in Canghai Capital cultivate nearly all water-based cultivation techniques, and many people’s bloodlines are related to the sea clan.

The sea clan is one of the world’s hundred races; once, in ancient times, they could almost rival the human clan, worshipping the Sea God and the supreme sea clan, the Innate Divine Beast, the Mystic Whale.

However, later in the ancient changes and struggles, the sea clan gradually declined.

Now, some are still present in the depths of oceans surrounding certain continents. The seas in the Nine Domains also contain sea clan members, although Chu Fengmian knows little about them.

Despite sporadic sea clan existences, it’s rare for a continent to be predominately sea clan anymore.

The Canghai Continent is an anomaly, dominated by the sea clan. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Canghai Capital is established jointly by human martial artists and the sea clan. Many human martial artists in Canghai Capital have sea clan lineage, though they resemble humans.

The sea clan are the ocean’s sovereigns, possessing innate advantages in cultivating water-based techniques. Those with sea clan bloodlines enjoy similar benefits, which is the reason Canghai Capital ranks among the top four powers in the Daluo Star Domain.
