Chapter 1: 275: Rolling Up Our Sleeves for a Showdown with Shen Rufeng

9 min read

This is Ronado Star, Qian Kunzi’s Dao Field. If I want to complete my mission, I only have one chance to strike. But after killing Zhang Lingfeng, how am I supposed to leave Ronado Star?

Will Master’s Space Conversion Talisman be able to break through Qian Kunzi’s Power blockade?

Hmph, even if I die, I’m still going to kill Zhang Lingfeng and complete the task Master assigned."

Brother Jing is Amu.

One of the people Shen Rufeng sent down.

As for the other two, A Ming and A Huo, one went to Titan Star and the other to White Martial Star.

Shen Rufeng’s order was that there was no need to give the Alliance any face—just kill Zhang Lingfeng, only success is allowed, failure is not. Even if all three die in the Black Water Star Realm, Zhang Lingfeng still has to be killed.

All three were lives personally nurtured by Shen Rufeng, completely obedient to his every word.

Now Amu had finally discovered Zhang Lingfeng’s trace.

On the surface he showed no emotion, and borrowed the power of the Eight Great Conglomerates, wanting to lure Zhang Lingfeng out and kill him on Ronado Star.

It was just a pity that, although Zhang Lingfeng thought about how to Coast Along all day and worked hard to earn more Coasting Along Value for himself, he was unwilling to deal with the rich young masters of the Eight Great Conglomerates.

Soul Power at Perfection.

The Realm of the Seven-star Golden Core.

For some reason, whenever he saw the disciples of the Eight Great Conglomerates, he obviously felt uncomfortable. Even though he didn’t sense any dangerous aura from them, his intuition told him he couldn’t get too close to these people.

Perhaps this was what people called Qi Fortune upon him, allowing Zhang Lingfeng to proactively avoid danger.

"In the end, it still came."

Qian Kunzi sighed.

When Zhang Lingfeng returned to the ground, Qian Kunzi’s figure also appeared in front of him.

"Senior, aren’t you refining the Power of the Spotted Hunting Tiger?"

Zhang Lingfeng felt puzzled.

He could tell the Qian Kunzi in front of him was not just a Soul Power Avatar.

"Shen Rufeng has sent someone to kill you."

Qian Kunzi said helplessly.

"Ah? Where?"

Zhang Lingfeng exclaimed.

"Inside that Starship you just saw."

Qian Kunzi explained.

Zhang Lingfeng’s safety concerned whether everyone could break the Black Water Star Realm Law. Qian Kunzi’s Soul Power was locking onto Zhang Lingfeng at all times.

Even if Zhang Lingfeng charged into the starry sky, his Divine Sense could still lock onto Zhang Lingfeng and see the scene in the heavens.

When the Starship entered the gravitational range of Ronado Star, he sensed that within the Starship, there was an aura of a figure that contained the Power of the Third Major Cultivation System, carrying a minor Divine Technique.

Looking across the whole Black Water Star Realm, apart from him, who had touched minor Divine Techniques through a transformation of Soul Power, no one had yet been able to come into contact with or grasp minor Divine Power.

From this, it was obvious.

The person was someone arranged by Shen Rufeng.

"No wonder I felt that Starship was strange."

Zhang Lingfeng suddenly understood, then asked, "Senior, what should we do now?"

"Naturally, we kill him. We and Shen Rufeng are standing on opposite sides by nature. Unless we give up on breaking the Law, don’t even think about peace."

Qian Kunzi said.

"Then what do you need me to do right now?"

Zhang Lingfeng asked.

"Watch me kill someone."

Qian Kunzi smiled faintly.

Then he took Zhang Lingfeng and performed Space Conversion.

The scene shifted.

Zhang Lingfeng found himself inside the Starship, seeing Deng Yan and the others.

"G–Great Lord."

Although Deng Yan and the others had never had direct contact with Qian Kunzi, they knew what Qian Kunzi looked like, and they also knew that in the Black Water Star Realm, no one dared impersonate Qian Kunzi.

Suddenly seeing him appear inside the Starship, and even bringing Zhang Lingfeng with him, everyone felt it was unbelievable, and they were all extremely excited and thrilled.

However, Amu realized something was wrong.

Yet under Shen Rufeng’s orders, he did not flee. Instead, he threw caution to the wind and rushed straight at Zhang Lingfeng, unleashing Destruction Law Power, wanting to kill Zhang Lingfeng.

Unfortunately, he had long since been locked onto by Qian Kunzi. The Destruction Law only covered his own body; his body was being slowly devoured and annihilated bit by bit by his own Power.

"There are still two more."

Ignoring the screams of the disciples of the Eight Great Conglomerates, Qian Kunzi forcibly flipped through Amu’s memories and discovered that Shen Rufeng had sent a total of three people, with the other two looking for Zhang Lingfeng on Titan Star and White Martial Star.

"Go back and tell your families that in the Black Water Star Realm, I call the shots. Shen Rufeng can kill them, and I can just as easily crush them to death—and it’s even simpler and easier for me than for Shen Rufeng."

Qiankun Zi let out a cold snort.

"Senior, please quell your anger."

The disciples of the Eight Great Conglomerates had no idea what was going on, but they couldn’t help dropping to their knees, begging for mercy nonstop.

Qiankun Zi knew these conglomerate disciples, and even the conglomerate heads, might not know they had been used by Shen Rufeng’s people. He was just giving them a warning and hadn’t intended to make things hard for them.

He then took Zhang Lingfeng and left.

And at the first possible moment, he sent a message to Water Master and Duan Heming, ordering the two of them to take out Aming and Ahuo.

"Shen Rufeng’s people seem like they’re not even afraid of death."

Zhang Lingfeng still felt lingering fear.

When Amu saw Qiankun Zi, not only did he not run, he even ignored everything just to try and kill

him, as if being smashed to pieces was nothing to him.

Zhang Lingfeng had never seen such a crazed guy.

"Shen Rufeng’s flesh body is one with the Stars, cultivating alongside Sun and Moon. He’s an Integration Stage Cultivator about to face Thunder Tribulation, and he can create Life on the planets he fuses with.

The Aming you met previously on Titan Star, and this guy now, are both Lives created by Shen Rufeng. They not only carry Shen Rufeng’s spiritual will, they can also ignore everything to carry out any orders Shen Rufeng issues.

But these Life forms of theirs weren’t created one hundred percent by Shen Rufeng.

Otherwise, even I wouldn’t be their match."

Qiankun Zi explained.

"One with the Stars, cultivating with Sun and Moon, and he can even create Life to use for himself—if Integration Stage Cultivators are that terrifying, and Shen Rufeng succeeds, then we..."

Zhang Lingfeng found it utterly unbelievable.

"There’s Heavenly Dao Balance. Shen Rufeng’s spiritual will, for the short term, can’t descend into the Black Water Star Realm anymore, nor can he send in Life Force that he’s created one hundred percent into the Black Water Star Realm.

But it’s foreseeable that the Black Water Star Realm is in for big trouble."

Qiankun Zi’s expression was grave.

"I have to contact the Upper Alliance immediately. No matter what, we have to force them to step out and uphold justice."

Qiankun Zi continued.

"What about me?"

Zhang Lingfeng said.

"Just now you broke out of Ronado Star’s gravitational range in an instant. The fusion of Speed and Time was beyond my expectations. I want to know exactly what kind of Golden Core you’ve condensed."

Qiankun Zi asked with a serious face.

He used Soul Power to cover the surroundings, preventing anyone from eavesdropping.

He even tried to veil Shen Rufeng’s Law, wanting to turn this place into a Cultivation Field of the Alliance Camp, free from the constraints of the Law.

Zhang Lingfeng thought of his current situation, and the efforts Qiankun Zi and Water Master and the others had made. He then condensed the Five Elements Laws into Spear Skills and said, "Seven-star Golden Core!"

Qiankun Zi’s face flushed red.

Although he had already had a premonition, seeing Zhang Lingfeng at this moment condense Skills other than Saber Technique, which by themselves weren’t bound by Shen Rufeng’s Law, he still couldn’t help trembling.

"Good, good, good. Even if I die and my Dao is extinguished, I won’t let Shen Rufeng kill you."

Qiankun Zi finally had the confidence to face the Upper Alliance.

"Senior, do whatever you want to do. I’ll fully support you."

Zhang Lingfeng said.

"You’ve already let your Power penetrate into Ancient Blue Star?"

Qiankun Zi wasn’t completely sure and asked again.

"Mm. Mengba sacrificed his Divine Soul to me. My grasp over Ancient Blue Star’s Laws has already exceeded... sixty percent."

Zhang Lingfeng spoke frankly.

Qiankun Zi felt suffocated.

He couldn’t help jumping up and down.

"Roll up your sleeves and fight Shen Rufeng to the bitter end. I refuse to believe that this time the Upper Alliance still has an excuse to sit on the sidelines. Return to Ancient Blue Star immediately. Seize the Time and gain full control over all of Ancient Blue Star’s Law Power as soon as possible. I need you to make the Upper Alliance realize that the Black Water Star Realm’s Qi Fortune can be taken back into the Alliance’s hands. I want Shen Rufeng to cry to the heavens with no answer and call to the earth with no response!"

"Hahahahaha!"

Qiankun Zi had never been this excited or lost his composure like this.

If earlier he had only seen hope when Zhang Lingfeng broke through the Black Water Star Realm Law, now he was seeing with his own eyes Zhang Lingfeng actually breaking the Law.

Qi Fortune on his body.

Soul Power at Perfection.

Seven-star Golden Core.

To have such Cultivation at such an age, Qiankun Zi really couldn’t find a reason to argue that Zhang Lingfeng couldn’t break the Black Water Star Realm Law.

All this time, the Upper Alliance had been unwilling to oppose Shen Rufeng for the sake of the Black Water Star Realm mainly because the Black Water Star Realm was under Shen Rufeng’s control.

But if they can be made to see that the Black Water Star Realm can return to the Alliance’s hands, then that’s a different story.

At the very least, they won’t just stand by and watch Shen Rufeng run wild in the Black Water Star Realm.

As long as there’s sufficient benefit, the Alliance can tear its face with Shen Rufeng and openly clash with him head-on for the Black Water Star Realm. Of course, all of this hinges on one premise: that the Alliance can see the hope of the Black Water Star Realm returning to the Alliance’s hands.
