Chapter 2321

Going out? Where to? Han Zichen asked.

Xiao Feng didn't answer: "Don't worry about it, just focus on your cultivation."

This time he went out to directly go to the Illuminating Heaven Holy City to hunt down the Illuminating Heaven Overlord.

Previously his most feared enemy was the Tribulation Law Saint Sovereign, but several years have passed and the Tribulation Law Saint Sovereign hasn't shown up; evidently either he's restrained by some limitation and can't act, or he simply isn't nearby.

Moreover, Xiao Feng suspects that the giant dragon beneath the wedge-shaped abyss is very likely the Tribulation Law Saint Sovereign!

Because that area happens to be on the fringe of the Tribulation Law Sacred Territory, the Tribulation Law Pure Land is only a few hundred million li away, which is not far for a Star-level powerhouse.

The Tribulation Law Saint Sovereign's territory is tiny, ranking second-to-last among Star-level Saint Sovereigns, and his strength isn't great. So he has always lurked beneath the abyss, using the battlefield remnants left from the ancient war to cultivate, which makes perfect sense.

Since the Tribulation Law Saint Sovereign's true body isn't present, even if he has an incarnation that can communicate with powerhouses like the Illuminating Heaven Overlord, there is still a spatial barrier.

As long as he acts fast enough, killing an overlord before the Tribulation Law Saint Sovereign arrives and then fleeing quickly is entirely doable!

Xiao Feng left an incarnation at home, his true body consecutively teleported, and soon he was far from that Wasteland.

When he first arrived, he had flown for a long time on a starship to leave the Illuminating Heaven Nation and get here; now teleporting back is very quick, and he arrived not long after.

Xiao Feng glanced at the map; the Illuminating Heaven Holy City isn't too far away, and continuous teleportation for a while will get him there.

While teleporting forward, he suppressed his aura and soul fluctuations to the weakest extent to prevent the other side from noticing in advance.

Not long after, Xiao Feng arrived at

a place of beautiful scenery.

The core region of the Illuminating Heaven Nation has been reached.

The Boundless Continent is everywhere Wasteland, only a few places still retain cosmic spirit veins.

The remnants of these cosmic spirit veins have surroundings much better than elsewhere, with clear mountains and clean water, pleasant scenery.

The cosmic spirit vein remnants of the Illuminating Heaven Holy City lie deep underground, similar to an ancient mine, except not dug that deep, and many cosmic Spirit Stones remain.

The natural environment within over a million kilometers around the spirit veins is quite good; in size it can rival about half of the Nine Provinces land, and even in a game world a million kilometers is not small.

Upon arriving here, the Illuminating Heaven Holy City is still several hundred thousand kilometers away.

Xiao Feng didn't continue teleporting; instead he completely concealed his aura and entered the core territory of the Illuminating Heaven Nation by flight.

The Illuminating Heaven Nation has seventy thousand cities, over sixty thousand of which are scattered across the barren land.

Another ten thousand are located on this fertile land.

Moreover, there are countless villages and towns here; the whole society is almost indistinguishable from regular planets and major worlds in the main universe, starkly different from the outside.

Xiao Feng disguised himself as a Super Brahma Valley stage expert and passed through some towns, arriving at a city.

This city is named "Wuwu City", a strange-sounding name.

However, the population is not small; the surrounding area totals several million residents, quite prosperous, and there are also many extraordinary beings.

Xiao Feng entered the city, found a tavern, and casually tossed a yellow cosmic Spirit Stone onto the counter.

"Bring out your best liquor," Xiao Feng said.

"Yellow Spirit Stone! Honored guest, sure thing, sure thing, coming right up!" The tavern owner's eyes lit up, he quickly grabbed the yellow universe

cosmic Spirit Stone, had someone bring the liquor.

"Honored guest, your liquor." The shop's server brought over a tall, slender liquor pot and cup.

Xiao Feng opened it and smelled; the taste was still quite good.

However, in terms of price, at most it's worth about one red Spirit Stone.

The purchasing power of cosmic Spirit Stones is very strong, especially for lower-class residents.

Red may be the lowest grade, but it does not equal "1 yuan".

In reality, each region and country has its own low-end currency; some are metal coins like copper, silver, gold, while some are paper money similar to silver notes.

What ordinary residents come into contact with are basically that kind of currency; compared to that, a red Spirit Stone is like a large piece of silver.

And a yellow Spirit Stone tossed on the table is equivalent to a box of silver; its value is easy to imagine.

Xiao Feng poured himself a cup of liquor, and the server again brought over some side dishes.

After thoroughly enjoying the good food and drink, Xiao Feng waved to the tavern owner: "Come here a moment."

Seeing he had money, the owner immediately hurried over, asking: "Honored guest, would you like anything else?"

"Just want to ask you something." Xiao Feng said with a light smile.

"Ask what... uh."

"I'll check it myself."

The owner had just wanted to speak when Xiao Feng's Divine Sense had already drilled into his sea of consciousness, searching his memories.

Soon, Xiao Feng withdrew his Divine Sense, waved his hand: "Get back to work."

"Oh, okay honored guest." The owner scratched his head, completely unaware of what just happened, wondering how he suddenly ended up beside the honored guest.

After examining the owner's memories, Xiao Feng's brows furrowed slightly.

"Looks like I came a bit early." He thought.

This owner knows quite a lot; the Illuminating Heaven Holy City every hundred

year holds a grand celebration; the time is after all taxes have been collected, lasting up to a month.

This time tax collection has taken over three years, not yet finished; probably only next year will the festival arrive.

When the time comes, the Illuminating Heaven Overlord will send envoys to announce the festival's start; everyone can rest without work, all places open for free play, and aside from harming or killing others, one may do anything they wish, even if immoral.

This festival has a long history; all nations of the Boundless Continent have this custom.

Its origin: in ancient times, the natives suffered greatly, enslaved as laborers, and could die at any moment in battles between powerhouses, living constantly in shadow.

Several times, the ancestors of the Boundless Continent, when foreign powerhouses went out to wage war, held a complete pressure-releasing revelry.

After that experience, many residents gradually broke through, becoming extraordinary beings.

After research, their ancestors believed this was an enlightenment breakthrough following the liberation of the soul, which is very meaningful.

Thus the festival was passed down, and after a long evolution over the ages, it became the current grand celebration held once every hundred years, which everyone eagerly anticipates.

After all, many ordinary beings may never encounter such a festival in their entire lives.

For now, not all of the Heavenly Kingdom's tax envoys have returned, so the festival must still wait.

Xiao Feng also has to wait.

The tax envoys haven't come back, which means there will be a slight shortage of universe spirit stones.

Anyway, it's only half a year, so he might as well not rush and first settle down in Wuwu City.

Even in disguise, Xiao Feng's strength still surpasses that of Wuwu City's lord, so he can live wherever he wishes.

Simply producing a green spirit stone could buy the perpetual usage rights to a large estate, and without seeking power or profit, purely living as a hermit would naturally face no obstruction.

As for his background, it's easily explained: he comes from Xieyue City in the Tianhen Kingdom, tired of conflict and having left his homeland to live elsewhere, and besides, no one can go to Xieyue City to investigate him.

Half a year is neither particularly long nor particularly short.

Idle and with nothing to do, Xiao Feng shifted his divine sense, and through the link of the virtual universe's game world, he transferred his main consciousness onto his virtual body in the main universe.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his eyes, the sight before him left him dumbfounded.
