Chapter 1154: Feng Er Emerges from Seclusion

As for the outside world, Lin Feng, who was concentrating on absorbing the energy of the Dragon-Phoenix Primordial Fruit, naturally knew nothing about it.

Now, after nearly three months of day‑and‑night absorption, the remaining energy inside that Dragon-Phoenix Primordial Fruit was finally completely drained by him.

"Boom!"

At the instant he absorbed the last strand of purple‑gold energy, a massive golden pillar of light suddenly erupted from Lin Feng's body.

The pillar shot straight upward for hundreds of miles, and the oppressive pressure it exuded could make most Four-star Dou Saints turn pale.

Because of this momentum, he was already half‑stepping into the realm of a Five-star Dou Saint.

If he truly managed to take that final step, even among the Dou Emperor families he would likely attain a high position.

However, despite his own momentum, Lin Feng's face showed not a hint of joy; instead he clenched his teeth, his cheeks flushed bright red.

"Damn it, the last bit, break for me!"

Sensing the invisible barrier he had never been able to breach, Lin Feng gritted his teeth and sprinted at it with desperate fury.

Yet, though the barrier was invisible and intangible, it was like a heavenly trench.

No matter how hard Lin Feng tried, he could not step over it.

"Bastard, looks like we have to use that thing!"

Seeing his continued inability to break through, Lin Feng, helpless, gritted his teeth and immediately retrieved the ancient Qiu Yuan of the ancient clan, another Three-star Dou Saint's body, as well as the Fire Inspection of the Flame Clan and the peak of a Three-star Dou Saint from the Medicine Clan—a total of four bodies.

After extracting those four bodies, which had been wrapped in falling heart‑flame, Lin Feng, who was at a critical breakthrough moment, dared not delay and promptly extracted the souls inside, sealing them into jade vials.

Next, just as with the two Three-star Dou Saint bodies before, he placed the four bodies into exotic fire and intensified the heat for smelting.

"Now I don't believe I still can't break through the final barrier!"

Soon after, Lin Feng stared at the four clumps of golden‑red blood—two large and two small—before him, showed no hesitation, swiftly reached out, sucked them all into his palm, and clenched them tightly.

"Whoosh~"

When those four clumps of golden‑red luminous blood touched Lin Feng, they instantly transformed into pure energy, entered his body, and finally flowed through his meridians.

Seeing the energy enter his meridians, Lin Feng, who had been waiting for this moment, immediately activated the Burning Technique, swiftly refined it, merged it completely with the energy of the Dragon-Phoenix Primordial Fruit, and then slammed it hard against the Five-star Dou Saint's barrier.

With the aid of the Dou Emperor bloodline supplied by the two Three-star Dou Saints, two Four-star Dou Saints, a total of four Dou Saint bodies, Lin Feng instantly shattered the barrier leading to the Five-star Dou Saint.

"Boom!"

Accompanying the complete rupture of the barrier, the next moment the golden pillar on Lin Feng's body surged dramatically, becoming several times more terrifying.

At the same time, the aura on his body instantly changed, appearing far deeper than before.

"Finally a Five-star Dou Saint, not easy!"

Feeling the vast Dou Qi within his body, Lin Feng immediately smacked his lips and said joyfully.

This breakthrough process, though extremely tortuous,

but fortunately, he ultimately succeeded in breaking through.

However, as Lin Feng's gaze lingered on the four extra clumps of black ash, he shook his head and sighed, "What a pity for those four bodies; they could have been used to cast secret arts to help others breakthrough, or to forge human puppets—both excellent materials."

Thinking of that, Lin Feng immediately winced with a painful grin.

But realizing the items were put to good use, helping him take the final step to break the Five-star Dou Saint, he gave a helpless smile and silently blamed his own greed.

"Whoosh!"

Yet, the instant Lin Feng sighed, a message zipped from afar and entered his body in the blink of an eye.

"Is this... Feng Er?!"

Sensing the message in his mind, Lin Feng suddenly widened his eyes and exclaimed in astonishment.

But immediately after, he sprang to his feet, delighted, "She's been in seclusion for so long, and finally she's emerged. Otherwise, when I was preparing to go with Zi Yan to the Northwest Continent, I would have stopped by to see if she had any mishap!"

Realizing the whisper came from his long‑unseen wife Feng Er, Lin Feng's expression instantly turned excited.

Mid‑sentence, Lin Feng's figure flickered and vanished from the spot, soaring at full speed toward the outside world!

At dawn's first break, the first ray of sunlight pierced the thin mist, gently brushing the soaring eaves of the city's rooftops, outlining the city perched atop the mountain peak with a soft, clear silhouette.

Around the city, mountain ranges rose and fell in succession, encircling the city like guardian deities.

Simultaneously, at the foot of the mountain on which the city stands, a broad river meanders by, its clear water flowing slowly, its surface sparkling.

However, faced with such a beautiful scene, a stunning woman in a colorful dress inside Lin Family Fortress on the central lake of the city had no leisure to admire it.

At this moment, her delicate, slightly saintly oval face was filled with anxiety.

Because she had been in seclusion, she knew nothing about her husband's whereabouts.

Until recently, after she fully received the inheritance of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan Leader and obtained the approval of the Phoenix Feather, the former Heavenly Phoenix Clan Leader

No, it was the outgoing Heavenly Phoenix Clan Leader who informed her that her own clone, whose strength reached Six-star Dou Saint, had actually been shattered long ago!

Upon learning this, Feng Qinger was nearly scared to death, collapsing on the spot.

She then, trembling, took out her husband's Soul Jade Pendant, confirmed that Lin Feng was not in mortal danger, and only then regained her composure.

Immediately after, she hurried out of that small world, racing nonstop back here.

After returning to Linjiang City, having already fully absorbed the Dragon-Phoenix Primordial Fruit and become a Dragon-Phoenix herself, she soon discovered an unfamiliar small world beside her.

She thought she had uncovered the ancient Dou Saint inheritance of Feng Qinger and hurriedly entered it to seek opportunities.

It turned out to be a small world inhabited and still in use.

Finally, by questioning the Dou Zun women inside, she learned that this small world belonged to her husband.

At the same time, she learned that her husband's strength had undergone a monumental change during her seclusion.

Now Lin Feng is a Three-star Dou Saint‑level powerhouse.

Having figured this out, she was excited, her worries largely eased, and she immediately went out to gather information about her husband.

Finally, she learned that a little over two years ago, after a ten‑thousand‑year gap, the long‑lost Bodhi Ancient Tree suddenly emerged in the Wild Ancient Realm.

Her husband, meanwhile, entered it with a group of sisters to seek opportunities.

In the end, several of them seemed to have obtained considerable opportunities, breaking through to the Dou Saint rank.

At the same time, the enemy of their family, Xiao Yan, also fortunately seized a Bodhi Heart when the Bodhi Ancient Tree appeared, and now he is also already a Dou Saint expert.

Furthermore, after his breakthrough to Dou Saint, he even came to her door to cause trouble, intending to kill her man.

However, finally, she was beaten by her several sisters and fled in defeat; that's all.

And upon receiving this news, Feng Qinger, after letting out a big sigh of relief, also couldn't help gritting her teeth secretly, preparing to find a time to thoroughly settle the trouble that is Xiao Yan.

After all, with her current strength, even some weak Dou Emperor clans might not necessarily be able to defeat her!

Of course, this certainly does not count as fighting on the opponent's turf.

After all, she knows that whether it is her Sky Demon Phoenix Clan or those other ancient races, they each have their own trump cards.

Such trump cards are usually not to be lightly used unless there is a crisis of extermination.

But once activated, its power can truly be heaven-shaking, earth-shattering, astonishing the world.
