After dealing with the green-robed youth’s ambush in a single strike, Qin Feng had made out like a bandit.

He had gained two Star Spiritual Veins and one Wind Attribute Star Divine Ability.

Qin Feng’s eyes shone with a deep, sparkling light. ’To get rich this fast, you really have to prey on the predators.’

A smile hung on Qin Feng’s face as the aura around him pulsed.

A full thirteen Star Spiritual Veins churned within his body. The uncontrollable, violent aura they produced grated against the Void, creating sparks of thunder and lightning as if striking a steel plate.

He had only been on the Lone Night Star for two days, yet in that time, he had already condensed thirteen Spirit Veins.

If he had cultivated normally, this would have taken at least one or two years.

"What a Cultivation Holy Land!"

Qin Feng couldn’t help but feel emotional. He clearly remembered that in his previous life, he was already in his thirties when he broke through to the Condensing Vein Realm.

The saying ’cultivation is easier within a sect’ was no empty boast.

Qin Feng glanced at the desolate star and was about to continue exploring when a spiritual premonition suddenly surfaced in his mind.

’Someone is touching my physical body!’

With a single thought, his eyes filled with a brilliant light. Qin Feng’s form shattered layer by layer, transforming into a pillar of light that vanished from the star.

A moment after Qin Feng’s form vanished from the Lone Night Star, several meteors streaked across the distant cosmos and crashed down onto the star.

...

On Heavenly Red Peak, by the lush green willows of Celestial Pool Lake, Eighth Master stood on a branch on three legs. It watched as a faint beam of starlight fell from the distant horizon, landing on the black-robed youth meditating beneath the tree.

HUFF! HUFF!

The black-robed youth’s chest began to rise and fall. The heartbeat in his physical body, which had been on the verge of Annihilation, grew strong once more. Like a dead tree, the youth began to radiate Vitality again.

’I’m back!’

Qin Feng opened his eyes, a silver-white glint flickering within them.

The next moment, Qin Feng’s brow furrowed. ’Weak. I feel unexpectedly weak.’ He couldn’t get used to it; it was as if he’d gone from being a full-grown elephant to a calf in a single instant.

Suddenly, Qin Feng’s expression changed drastically.

His Spirit Platform rumbled. A dense, hot current surged from his Lifebound Star Mark, instantly flooding his entire body.

’This is Cultivation feedback!’ Qin Feng was slightly startled. He recalled what was written in the Mixed Element Star Technique.

This pure Star True Power shared the same origin as his own.

The Star True Power in Qin Feng’s body, like a silver True Dragon from a Star River, grew excited and rushed forward to continuously refine this warm current.

’It seems what the Mixed Element Star Technique says is true. You really can bring back a portion of the Star True Power cultivated in the Star River. However, the ratio doesn’t seem to be very high—it’s only about ten to one!’

Unconcealable joy filled Qin Feng’s eyes. Even if it was only one-tenth, this was still an unimaginable amount of power.

His formidable Star True Power almost effortlessly merged with the feedback of same-origin Star True Power from his Lifebound Star Mark.

CRACKLE! POP!

A low rumble, like the clap of spring thunder, echoed through the acupoints and meridians of his body. Countless streams of Star True Power tempered his muscles, bones, meridians, flesh, and even his internal organs.

HISS! HISS!

Streams of dark red impurities with a fragrant aroma were squeezed out from his pores.

These impurities resembled a medicinal paste, as blood-red as jade and full of medicinal properties. However, to Qin Feng’s current physique, they were nothing but filth. This showed just how pure and powerful his physical body had become.

With a shake of his body, these blood-red, jade-like impurities splashed into the Celestial Pool. Immediately, goldfish rushed over from the water, wagging their heads and tails, and swallowed the filth in a single gulp.

SPLOOSH! SPLOOSH!

One of the goldfish that had swallowed the blood-red impurities began to transform. Its scales molted away as waves of Spiritual Qi rippled around its body. In just a few minutes, the goldfish had grown twice its original size.

Its entire body was crimson, its form long and slender, and its scales glinted under the water like Armor. Most astonishingly, it had grown dragon-like whiskers from the corners of its mouth and two bumps had appeared on its head.

This ordinary koi, after swallowing the impurities from Qin Feng’s body, had undergone a bizarre transformation. It had broken the shackles of its bloodline and awakened the lineage of the ancient Fierce Beast, the Henggong Fish.

It had received an unimaginable boon.

From this day forward, it had embarked on the path to immortality.

It wagged its head and tail, and a sound like cannonballs firing echoed through the water. Its once-dull eyes had become intelligent. It stared at the black-robed youth sitting cross-legged on the shore, its eyes filled with gratitude, and lingered in the water for a long while before finally swimming away.

When one man obtains the Dao, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven!

In the tree, Eighth Master watched this scene and cackled strangely. "CAW! CAW! Incredible! The boss is just ridiculously strong! A single drop of his useless filth can easily evolve an ordinary creature like a koi into a Fierce Beast! Just incredible!"

"The Peak Master’s Cultivation changes by the day! His cultivation speed is terrifying!" Nearby, Luan Xiaochuan, Zhao Yuan, and Xu Jie, who were standing in attendance, exchanged glances. Their eyes shone with excitement, and their bodies trembled slightly.

"It’s more than that! Every time we see the Peak Master, his strength has increased!"

"Following a master like him... we must have done something right in our past ten lives!"

"It’s like our ancestors’ graves are blessing us! The three of us have hit the jackpot. We started following the Peak Master when we were nobodies, and he’s always been generous. Now that his might shakes the world, our time to shine won’t be far off!"

"Exactly. The Peak Master is busy with his Cultivation, so we must handle all the mundane tasks for him. We can’t let him down!"

...

’My Star True Power has doubled. In just two days, my overall strength has doubled. This Twenty-eight Celestial Divine Palace of the Star River truly is a supreme Cultivation Holy Land!’

Qin Feng controlled the power in his hands, his eyes burning with fervor.

Qin Feng finally understood why all those geniuses on the Star Ranking hid themselves away in their Cave Mansions to cultivate arduously.

With this kind of cultivation speed, who would want to waste time wandering around outside?

Forcibly suppressing the urge to immediately resume his Cultivation, Qin Feng raised his head and looked toward the three people waiting in a pavilion a hundred feet away.

Qin Feng spoke lightly. "Come forward. What was so important that you had to disturb my seclusion?"

The three men sensed the faint displeasure in Qin Feng’s tone and hurried forward. "Peak Master, Elder Qingmu sent someone to deliver the Spirit Medicine Seeds!"

"Spirit Medicine Seeds?" Qin Feng’s eyes lit up. He had been waiting for them.

Now that the Chaotic Five Directions Heaven was opened, he needed a large batch of Spirit Medicine Seeds to balance its Vitality.

Back when he became the chief Alchemist of the Medicine King Hall, Qin Feng had specifically requested some Spirit Medicine Seeds from Elder Qingmu. He hadn’t expected the elder to act so quickly.

It had only been two days, and they had already been prepared and delivered.

"Also, Peak Master, the Alchemy Villa on the mountainside is complete. Only the Earth-Fire Passage has yet to be opened. However, according to the senior brothers from the logistics hall, it should only take about a month to open and stabilize the passage. Then you’ll be able to install a Pill Furnace!"

At this point, Luan Xiaochuan looked up at Qin Feng and continued, "Furthermore, the president of the All Stars Academy’s Mystic Master Guild has come to visit. He said he brought several of your old acquaintances, Peak Master!"
