Swallowing the Stars: Realm of Control

……

More than a million kilometers south of Fengzhou lies a place known as the Southern Wilderness, where no sect has established itself because the ferocity here is far greater.

Whenever a ferocious tide erupts, the sect is simply unable to maintain its position.

All sorts of bizarre things grow here: plants with animalistic attributes, and spirits as powerful as those in the Returning Origin Realm—there are too many to list.

In a valley.

call!

A figure rushed out from within and soared into the sky.

Suddenly, a large number of ferocious figures flew up from behind, and huge monster figures chased after that body.

The fleeing man's aura surged, and his speed suddenly increased.

Five minutes later, after creating a considerable distance, the man finally breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing that the spirit beasts behind him had all turned back.

"What's going on? How come we've encountered so many guys all of a sudden?" Tian Ying's expression turned ashen.

I almost lost my life.

At the same level of Returning Origin Realm, he was not afraid of facing a single Spirit Ferocious of the same level, but if there were too many of them, it would be fatal.

Moreover, there are others who are no weaker than him.

"Fifteen ferocious spirits, each as powerful as me, have suddenly appeared. There's a big problem here," Tian Ying said in a low voice.

For him, killing a Spirit Ferocious in the Returning Origin Realm was not as easy as he imagined. He only had a chance if it was alone; if there were more than two, it would be difficult to kill them.

Now, five years have passed, but he has only killed four spirit beasts at the Returning Origin level, not even halfway there.

It's very difficult to kill ten of them.

He almost succeeded at that spot, but almost got into trouble.

For a place to nurture so many powerful spirits, there must be something unusual about it, either a super-level spirit mine or some other kind of opportunity.

With his eyes shining, Tian Ying had no intention of giving up this area.

The visitor from outer space was an opportunity, and so is this very position. Even if it's dangerous, he has to give it a try; his personality is not like Tianxiao's.

Not far below Tianying, in the endless forest, Tianxiao stood on a thick tree branch and was slightly surprised to see Tianying escape.

"So many powerful spirits have gathered in this area? It seems this area is unusual." Tianxiao's strength is much greater. He concealed his aura, so Tianying could not detect him.

Right now, I've actually seen a good opportunity.

He never expected that this trip would yield some unexpected gains.

"Given Tianying's personality, he certainly won't let this opportunity pass. Let him see what's inside first. I'd rather these demonic spirits help me kill him."

Tianxiao thought to himself.

……

Luo Feng is in Nanya City.

For five years, he hardly ever left the palace, devoting all his time to cultivation, building his primordial spirit layer by layer, and rapidly advancing in his realm.

The issue of superficiality can be addressed gradually later; right now, the priority is survival.

"Because of my solid foundation from the past, the impact of advancing one level in the Qi Realm each year is not significant."

Yes.

Luo Feng's primordial spirit has now been elevated to the fifth level of the Qi Manifestation Realm by condensing stronger secret runes. He has consumed almost 70% of the fifth-grade Qi Sand and other spiritual fruits that are beneficial to his primordial spirit. He also sold some treasures to obtain some more, but these have all been used up.

He had almost completely converted his Qi Sand into Grade 5 Qi Sand, and now he had less than 50% left.

"It shouldn't be a problem to directly condense it to the ninth level of the Qi Manifestation Realm."

"My only problem right now is the lack of resources."

"The rest, I'm afraid, can only be cultivated to the peak of the seventh level of the Qi Manifestation Realm," Luo Feng pondered.

……

After paying the rent for the palace for another five years.

It took another three and a half years to successfully reach the seventh level of the Qi Realm, but all his resources were completely exhausted.

"At the seventh level of the Qi Aspect Realm, my current strength is about fifty times greater than it was nine years ago, and I have fully reached the threshold of half of the Returning Origin Realm."

Notice.

The Returning Origin Realm is more than ten times stronger than the ninth level of the Qi Manifestation Realm.

In other words, Luo Feng is only about five times stronger than a regular Guiyuan Realm cultivator who has just broken through. This level of strength is still not quite enough.

After all, this is the height he could only reach by unleashing all his abilities.

Every Guiyuan Realm expert, like the sect leader of Tianying Sect, has reached this realm for a very long time. How could they possibly be an ordinary Guiyuan Realm expert?

The refinement of the fourth level of the Fierce Qi Technique makes his Qi power readily available. If his true form were to reach the fifth level, the consumption would be even greater, but of course, his strength would also increase dramatically.

Luo Feng stood up: "It's time to go out and make some money."

Without resources for cultivation, it's still not feasible here.

As long as Luo Feng doesn't use the Qi-body technique, he can completely disguise himself as a Returning Origin Realm cultivator, which would make him less outstanding.

He took a deep breath.

They still stepped out of the palace.

At this point, encountering Tianying waiting outside might cause some trouble, but it's unlikely that he could be killed inside Nanya City.

After carefully surveying his surroundings, Luo Feng immediately flew towards the 'commercial district'.

brush!

Quite abruptly, a figure appeared in front of him, with pigtails, big, bright eyes, and red lipstick.

"Big brother." Seeing Luo Feng in a daze, Mu Su spoke directly, "I knew this Nanya City had your feel to it, and I was sure you were here. I didn't expect you to actually be here."

"Mu Su." Luo Feng was taken aback, concealing the change in his expression.

Without a doubt, Mu Su had guessed his identity. Why was this girl looking for him?

"Big brother, don't worry, I'm not interested in anything else about you except sleeping with you," Mu Su said with a grin, having seen through Luo Feng's thoughts.

Luo Feng was both amused and exasperated.

but.

Judging from Mu Su's eyes, this guy didn't seem to be lying.

Are there really people in this world who are not interested in their own identity?

"Come on, take me for a walk." Mu Su took Luo Feng's hand.

Luo Feng's expression was serious: "Mu Su, your coming out might not be so simple. Your master probably let you out on purpose, with my goal in mind."

Mu Su narrowed his eyes: "That old guy, is he really thinking about that?"

Thinking back to the mission more than eight years ago, it was indeed very easy, without any obstacles whatsoever, which is quite possible.

Moreover, her master has her token, which allows him to pinpoint her location at any time.

Mu Su closed her eyes, and an invisible force permeated the surroundings. This force was so pervasive that no one around her could feel it except for her.

Luo Feng looked serious but also somewhat surprised. He sensed a strange power emanating from Mu Su and permeating the surroundings, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what kind of power it was.

After a while, she opened her eyes: "Don't worry, there is no trace of the Five Peaks Sect within a five-kilometer radius."

Luo Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

With a thought, he said, "Mu Su, I'm out of Qi Sand. Could you lend me some? I have some Grade 5 Qi Sand and some cultivation treasures."
