Chapter 1251: with translation of chapter title

Phew, finally got out, survived a great disaster!

At the extreme south of the continent, the surrounding mountains and lands were lush and verdant, with not a trace of human development; however, today a disheveled figure suddenly fell out of the void, looking frightened.

Oh yeah, master, we finally left that damned place; I love the outside continent!

Meanwhile, as the former rejoiced, the black‑clad girl the size of a fist on his shoulder jumped about even more excitedly than he.

That appearance, as if they had just experienced some terrifying event.

However, speaking of it, escaping from the pursuit of over a hundred Dou Saints was indeed a terrifying ordeal for them.

As for the identities of the two mentioned earlier, aside from Lin Feng and Xiao Ling who had just escaped from the clutches of Han Yu and Qiu Yue, who else could there be?

Cough cough.

However, not long after being happy, Lin Feng suddenly coughed again and then spat out some fresh blood.

Seeing this, he could only helplessly put away the two Nine‑Star Treasure Pills in his hand, then wipe the remaining blood at the corner of his mouth and bitterly say: 'How long has it been since I was made this miserable by an opponent of the same level? However, that primordial energy is indeed troublesome; facing its attack, Dou Qi would need to consume an unknown multiple more to block it. Unaware, a moment of carelessness could easily lead to a great loss.'

Having said that, Lin Feng also found that trace of residual primordial energy within his body quite troublesome.

If he were to fight that wolf shadow again, he would be confident of exhausting the opponent to death without ending up so miserable.

The main problem was that, when he first clashed with the wolf shadow, he never expected the opponent to use primordial energy; given the examples of Han Yu and Qiu Yue earlier, he subconsciously handled it as Dou Qi.

As it turned out, the wolf shadow used primordial energy attacks; caught off guard, he suffered a great loss.

Feeling that primordial energy within his body constantly trying to break through his interception, Lin Feng secretly thought: 'I should first find a place to heal my wounds, then return to Ancient Dragon Island.'

Thinking of this, Lin Feng immediately shot toward a tall mountain range in the distance.

Day and night passed, and almost two months went by.

And in a natural cave, Lin Feng sat cross‑legged inside, with occasional thin white mist rising from his skin.

The source of this mist was the extreme heat from Xiao Ling inside his body; after all, this girl was finishing the final stage of her great battle within him, so her temperature was certainly much higher than usual.

Of course, during these two months, Lin Feng refined and took a Nine‑Star Treasure Pill for healing, then he and Xiao Ling worked together, putting in this much effort, finally completely clearing that primordial energy from his body.

Moreover, his aura now is much more enduring than it was two months ago.

This change is obviously due to some benefits Lin Feng gained during this healing period.

Of course, to be more precise, the primordial energy in his body was completely absorbed by Xiao Ling.

After all, Xiao Ling had previously absorbed the Wu Nie Tun Yan child fire obtained from Hun Feng's body, and now she also possesses devouring power; the wolf shadow's primordial energy during the earlier battle was too fierce, and Lin Feng didn't have the time to let her resolve it, so it was dragged on.

But now the primordial energy in Lin Feng's body is like rootless duckweed; Xiao Ling can still easily devour it completely in some time.

After all, no matter how powerful the energy, without reinforcements it will be worn down by lower‑level energy.

Hehe, I didn't expect the feedback from absorbing this primordial energy to be not small. I feel that even with normal cultivation, I could naturally break through to Eight‑Star Dou Saint within at most five years.

Feeling his strength increase greatly, Lin Feng couldn't help but grin.

Who would have thought that the thing that once tormented him to the brink of death has now become nourishment for his growth?

However, feeling the Dou Qi within him that couldn't break through, he couldn't help but feel regret: 'It's a pity; if there were more of this primordial energy, I might have seized the chance to break through into Eight‑Star Dou Saint.'

Having said that, Lin Feng immediately placed his hand on his storage ring; inside, there was the root of a Swallow‑Life Grass whose strength reached early Nine‑Star Dou Saint.

If he refined it here, he could surely break through in one go and step into Eight‑Star Dou Saint.

Forget it, let's go back first; I've been away so long, my good wives must be worried.

Having said that, Lin Feng immediately rose to the cave mouth, gazing down at the bottomless cliff and the distant endless verdant mountain range, murmuring: 'Moreover, it's now less than a year until the Medicine Clan's Canon; resources have already been accumulated quite a bit, so it's time to seriously enhance my strength.'

As soon as his words fell, Lin Feng's figure instantly turned into a stream of light, shooting rapidly toward the Zhongzhou Continent to the north.

Thereafter, at Lin Feng's full‑speed flight, less than a day passed before he returned to Dragon Island.

Moreover, his luck this time was also especially good; aside from Xiao Yixian, Cai Lin, Qing Lin, Zi Yan, and Yun Yun, Cao Ying and two other women, Zhao Ran, and Feng Qinger were actually all present.

Of course, upon seeing Lin Feng, who hadn't returned for four months, the women naturally couldn't avoid a round of complaints.

Furthermore, during this process, Lin Feng also knew that, while he was missing, the women had gone to the southern continent to look for him out of worry.

However, upon seeing the skeletons at the seal's entrance, the women cautiously tested with puppets; upon discovering that the puppets were destroyed the moment they touched the seal, they dared not force a breakthrough, and could only wait anxiously outside until over a month ago, when the women finally returned to Dragon Island.

As for Feng Qinger, she only learned from the other sisters that her man had been missing for a long time, whereupon she hurried over to inquire about the situation and has since been residing here.

Seeing this, Lin Feng let out a helpless sigh.

Next, he glanced at his various beauties of differing charms. Of course, Zi Yan is temporarily not among them.

After a moment of silence, he solemnly told Zi Yan: 'Girl, arrange a quiet room; I'll tell you all about my experiences during this time.'

'No problem, follow me.'

Upon seeing his expression, Zi Yan immediately realized this was no simple matter; she lightly nodded, then turned and flew toward a building complex on Dragon Island.

As for Lin Feng and the other women, they quickly followed Zi Yan, flying toward that stone building.

'What?' 'Three Nine‑Star Dou Saints!?'

'Altogether over two hundred Dou Saint combatants appeared; husband, you actually killed about a hundred of the enemy's Dou Saint combatants through your own schemes!?'

Inside a stone chamber, after hearing Lin Feng recount his three‑month experience in the Gu Nanfang Continent, the women's expressions drastically changed, and they all gazed at their man with incredulous looks.

No wonder they were so agitated; the matter was simply too hard to believe.

After all, anyone hearing that beyond the continent they know lies a hidden force possessing three Nine‑Star Dou Saints, at least three Eight‑Star Dou Saints, over ten Five‑ to Seven‑Star Dou Saints, and besides that over a hundred other Dou Saints would find it unbelievable.

Most importantly, the majority of these people also have their own pets, and these pets are all ninth‑rank magical beasts!

Even the highest‑ranked pet has already reached the level of a mid‑stage Eight‑Star Dou Saint magical beast!

This... this... this, who could believe it?

Lin Feng had already anticipated the women's reaction, so he felt no surprise, merely spreading his hands helplessly and saying: 'Although the matter is utterly fantastical, that's just how it is.'

As he spoke, he lightly brushed his storage ring; after a faint flash of light, several corpses appeared on the cold stone floor.

Taking out the corpses, Lin Feng continued: 'These corpses are the ones I casually stored in my ring while fleeing; they were Dou Saint‑level cultivators in life, which can be sensed from the pressure on their corpses; as for their spirit beasts, they are too large to bring out.'

'These people were indeed Dou Saint experts in life; one of them had even reached the Five‑Star Dou Saint level. It seems the other side wants me to release them so they can act against the forces of the outside continent!'

Upon seeing the corpses on the ground, Cai Lin's dark brows furrowed slightly; then, as if thoughtful, she said.

Hearing this, the other women also nodded in agreement.

After all, if they weren't looking to cause trouble, they wouldn't believe the other side was anything good.

And Lin Feng, seeing the women's worries, smiled and said: "How to put it, this can also be considered a blessing in disguise; those people are extremely dangerous, but they come from a place called the Hundred Source Continent."

Immediately afterward, Lin Feng roughly related all the information he knew about the Hundred Source Continent.

As for Xiao Yixian and the other ten women, upon hearing Lin Feng's words, they were momentarily stunned, unable to react.

"Husband, are you saying those people are not at all from the Qi Continent, but instead come from another continent called the Hundred Source Continent?"

After a long silence, Cao Ying immediately stared at Lin Feng with a shocked expression, and unconsciously asked.

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng waved his hand and said: "That's how it is; although it's hard to believe, the fact is so. However, in my view, most of those Dou Saint-level cultivators were not born in the Hundred Source Continent, but were born and raised in this Qi Continent. As for their ancestors, I know little; I only know that at their peak, their strength was certainly not inferior to a Dou Emperor."

As soon as his words fell, Lin Feng fell silent for a moment, then continued with his speculation: "Of course, the other side is likely weakened greatly because the Qi Continent lacks vital energy. I think this is why that powerful ancestor of the Spirit Communication Sect was sealed by the ancient cultivators of the Qi Continent."

Hearing this, the women instantly became both excited and worried.

And as the crowd fell silent, the scene instantly became extremely quiet.

"Husband, if we later go to the Hundred Source Continent to cultivate vital energy, could we break free from the Qi Continent's primal imperial energy restriction and thus advance to a higher realm?"

After a long silence in the stone chamber, Feng'er was the first to voice what the other women were thinking.

And as Feng'er's words fell, the few women who had long wanted to ask this all turned their heads in unison, gazing at Lin Feng, awaiting his answer.

Of course, since Zhao Ran didn't know about the primal imperial energy, she now felt a bit muddle-headed, not knowing where the conversation had gone among the few people.

Lin Feng, seeing that several people wanted to know, pondered for a moment, then slowly opened his mouth: "I also saw some information on this matter in the materials I found in the Gu Nanfang Continent, so I know a bit about it."

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, then, under the women's bright, sparkling eyes, explained: "It is said that within this universe, countless worlds of various sizes are scattered. These worlds differ in their formation and development, so they vary in strength, and thus the paths they take are not the same."

"And for cultivators who reach a bottleneck in some world, they indeed, when left with no other choice, choose to risk crossing the universe to other continents in search of opportunity to advance; thus this path is theoretically feasible, provided you can get there and survive safely before completing your transmigration. Otherwise, you'll end up like the ancestor of the Spirit Communication Sect, imprisoned or even killed."

While speaking, Lin Feng also reorganized what he knew and told the women part of it.

However, when Zi Yan finished hearing his words, her face immediately showed deep disappointment, and she pouted: "It seems this offers no hope; leaving the Qi Continent, some of our Ancient Dragon Clan's ancestors have tried before, but each time, as the distance from the Qi Continent grew, that strange tearing force only increased, and there they could not replenish their qi, so in the end they could only flee in disgrace."

Saying this, Zi Yan sighed: "I think, compared to this, it's better to honestly just keep doing our own things."

"Hehe, Zi Yan is absolutely right; we're still better off just doing our own things."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng smiled, lightly pinched this girl's tender cheek, then looked at the women and said solemnly: "Less than a year remains until the Medicine Clan's Canon; I intend to raise Zi Yan's strength in this period to facilitate later affairs."

As he spoke, a glint flashed in Lin Feng's eyes.

He had already spent a long time in the Gu Nanfang Continent; now it's time to swiftly execute the plan.

And Cai Lin, hearing his words, furrowed her dark brows slightly and said: "Husband, how do you plan to raise Zi Yan's strength?"

"Nine‑Grade Mystic Pill."

Hearing this, Lin Feng gazed northward, a faint glimmer flickering in his eyes. (End of chapter)
