Chapter 1640: Chapter 1640: Methods to Revive Ancient Stars
"Alright!" Ye Feng agreed cheerfully.
"Then, welcome to join our temporarily formed hunting team." Xia Yao extended her right hand to Huo Lingjiao with a smile.
Clap!
Huo Lingjiao and Xia Yao clapped their hands in agreement, then looked at Ye Feng. He also extended his hand and gently clapped it, sealing the deal. Thus, the team hunting Black Prison convicts expanded from two people to three.
"Let’s go, there are no convicts in this hidden starry sky right now, let’s head somewhere else."
Ye Feng said.
He took out the Black Compass, leading the way, with Xia Yao and Huo Lingjiao following closely.
...
In the vast and boundless starry sky.
Huo Lingjiao, like a curious baby, gazed intently at various places in the Twin Universe.
"I find that your universe is quite large, about twice the size of our Flame Universe, but for some reason, it always feels like it’s big but useless."
She couldn’t help but complain.
"Big but useless?" Xia Yao blinked, remembering that she seemed to have said something like that before, but it wasn’t about the universe, it was about the outer realm creatures.
"What do you mean?" Ye Feng asked, raising an eyebrow.
"You previously mentioned that your universe is the Twin Universe, possessing the Immortal Realm and the Three Thousand Realms as two half-universes, with the Starry Sky World as a connecting part in the middle, which is twice the size of our Flame Universe. However, the Spiritual Energy here is not abundant, and there aren’t enough Ancient Life Stars in the starry sky. Even though it has entered a prosperous era, there are still too few strong cultivators."
Huo Lingjiao said.
Ye Feng and Xia Yao looked helpless.
At present, excluding the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom, there are indeed very few top-tier cultivators remaining. Ninety-layer or above Immortal Emperors openly don’t exceed three.
In contrast, the Flame Universe is at the peak of a prosperous age, with about ten ninety-layer or above Immortal Emperors, and two hundred-layered Immortal Emperors vying for the position of Heavenly Venerable, clearly surpassing the current Twin Universe.
Xia Yao said with a wry smile:
"There’s no way around it, our prosperous era hasn’t developed to its peak. Your side’s prosperous age has lasted for tens of thousands of years, while our Twin Universe’s prosperous age is set to last a million years. In this timeframe, dozens of hundred-layered Immortal Emperors could be born!"
Hearing this, Huo Lingjiao was unsettled.
The Twin Universe is very large, with the peak age lasting a million years, capable of producing dozens or even hundreds of hundred-layered Immortal Emperors, which sounds terrifying.
Yet, ironically, the Twin Universe can only produce one Heavenly Venerable per Origin Era.
It’s truly confusing.
"It seems there’s a substantial difference between different universes," Huo Lingjiao commented.
An hour later.
The group arrived at a desolate Ancient Star, discovering traces of past life, but it was now barren, the ground covered in storms, with remnants of ruins, a scene of desolation.
"You have too many abandoned Ancient Stars."
Huo Lingjiao said.
In their Flame Universe, abandoned Ancient Stars are very rare, and when they do appear, they’re occupied and redeveloped by cultivators from nearby Ancient Life Stars.
"The universe is too large and life is too sparse."
Ye Feng said so.
Xia Yao added, "Also, our Twin Universe has too many wars, with various races constantly fighting, it’s just frustrating."
"In contrast, our Flame Universe is much more peaceful, no wonder we don’t need dedicated people to maintain cosmic balance."
Huo Lingjiao covered her mouth and giggled.
At this moment, Ye Feng looked at the Black Compass in his hand and found the needle pointing directly at the core center of this abandoned Ancient Life Star.
"There’s a convict hidden there."
He pointed beneath the ground and said.
"Leave it to me!"
Huo Lingjiao rolled up her sleeves, ready to act.
"I’ll first blast the star to force that person out, then you can make your move," Ye Feng said, "It’s a fifty-layered Immortal Emperor, not strong."
"Blast the star? Don’t!"
Huo Lingjiao hurriedly stopped Ye Feng.
"Why?" Ye Feng and Xia Yao were surprised.
"That was once an Ancient Life Star, with a little modification from me, it can come back to life. Why destroy it? Such a waste!"
Huo Lingjiao said, adopting a scolding tone.
Hearing this, Ye Feng and Xia Yao felt embarrassed.
In the Twin Universe, similar barren Ancient Stars practically held no value and were typically destroyed, and no one wanted to modify them.
"You understand the method of modification?"
Ye Feng thought of something and couldn’t help but ask.
"Of course I can." Huo Lingjiao proudly patted her chest, "I am the most talented of the Bathing Fire Phoenix clan, most knowledgeable in the Nirvana Technique."
"In that case, you modify this Ancient Star, and we’ll guard outside. If that Black Prison convict comes out, we’ll suppress him, then you can practice on him." Ye Feng said so.
"Alright." Huo Lingjiao nodded.
In the next moment.
The nearby space experienced slight fluctuations.
Huo Lingjiao was already standing on the surface of the Ancient Star, forcefully thumping her chest with one hand, spitting out a mouthful of blood, making a Phoenix pattern appear in the void before her.
She started forming hand seals.
The Phoenix pattern rapidly expanded until it covered the entire surface of the star, causing a suitable atmosphere for life to reappear on the surface.
The storm on the star’s surface quickly ceased.
The original strong wind soon became gentle.
Crackle!
Lightning and thunder appeared in the atmosphere, and as some materials were decomposed, masses of water vapor emerged, forming cloud and rain, falling on the entire surface of the Ancient Star.
Rivers, lakes, and oceans rapidly appeared.
In less than half a day, this desolate Ancient Life Star quickly regained an environment suitable for life. As Huo Lingjiao diligently scattered Spirit Seeds, the surface of the star rapidly grew lush green plants.
The entire Ancient Star was full of vibrant life.
"If we bring in some animals from elsewhere and relocate some cultivators, it won’t take long before this Ancient Star can be restored to its Peak Prosperous Age."
Huo Lingjiao said proudly.
Even though it took half a day, she truly transformed a completely barren Ancient Life Star into an environment suitable for life.
Even the Spirit Veins were formed.
"The Spiritual Energy on this star is quite dense. I didn’t expect you could even create Spirit Veins."
Xia Yao looked amazed.
"Spirit Veins are actually a special type of earth vein connected to the Heavenly Earth Origin Essence. They can decompose ordinary materials into energy, and after multiple conversions, it naturally becomes high-grade energy suitable for cultivators to absorb, which is what we commonly refer to as Spiritual Energy."
Huo Lingjiao explained the principle once.
Both Ye Feng and Xia Yao felt Huo Lingjiao was very formidable, mastering many techniques.
Her arrival might be a good thing.
"Huh!"
At this moment, an astonished voice echoed from the surface of the Ancient Star, drawing the attention of Ye Feng and the others simultaneously, noticing an elder in black robes standing atop a mountain peak, surveying the surroundings.
Atop the peak.
The Black Prison Convict at the Fifty-layered Immortal Emperor Level turned his head to observe the surroundings, looking bewildered.
"How strange!"
"I remember when I hid here some time ago, the surface of the Ancient Star was barren. How has it now become suitable for cultivation? Did I sleep for thousands, or tens of thousands of years?"
This Black Prison Convict mumbled.
The next moment.
This person looked up and met eyes with Ye Feng and the others standing on the white cloud, his eyes quickly filling with fear.
"Ye Feng and Xia Yao!"
"Damn it!"
The person turned and fled.
"Is that the Black Prison Convict?" Huo Lingjiao asked, pointing in the direction the elder fled.
"Yes." Ye Feng nodded.
"What if we’ve got the wrong person?" Huo Lingjiao frowned, not wanting to kill the wrong person.
"You can subdue him first, then I’ll let you know why this person deserves death." Ye Feng shook the black compass in his hand.
"Alright." Huo Lingjiao nodded.
Rip!
The void was suddenly shattered as Huo Lingjiao transformed into a Bathing Fire Phoenix, crushing the void in an instant, catching up with the Black Prison Convict in no time.
"Phoenix Ancient Bell!"
After catching up with the opponent, Huo Lingjiao quickly opened her mouth, spitting out a swirl of flames forming an ancient bell of fire, enveloping the Black Prison Convict.
"Such a skill!"
Ye Feng and Xia Yao clapped in unison.
"Spare me!"
The Black Prison Convict immediately knelt and begged for mercy.
Ye Feng ignored this person, instead using the black compass to reflect the old man’s past.
In the scene:
This person committed all sorts of heinous acts, often apprenticing to others, and once his cultivation level surpassed his master, he would kill his master, seize the master’s wife and junior apprentices, and after having his fill, kill them all.
"Such cruelty, he deserves a thousand deaths!"
Seeing this person’s past, Huo Lingjiao trembled with anger, filled with a sense of justice and fury.
"Old guy, you’ve really played it dirty, no wonder you were suppressed and thrown into Black Prison." Ye Feng looked at the person, eyes full of indifference.
"Ye Feng! We are both High-Rank Cultivators, the lives of those lower cultivators are nothing, can you say your hands haven’t been stained with life?"
The old man glared and asked.
"Perhaps the lives I’ve taken can be counted in the thousands but they were all either my enemies or evildoers, deserving their fate."
Ye Feng replied calmly.
"All rubbish! Ye Feng, as Immortal Emperors, it’s all for living enjoyably, right? You let me go, and I can be your dog, as long as you don’t kill me, I can even transform into a woman and double cultivate with you. I guarantee I know more techniques than the usual sort."
The old man laughed slyly.
Ye Feng immediately felt disgusted.
"Damn it!" Xia Yao also felt disgusted, forgetting to maintain her image of a lady, and directly swore.
"I’ll slaughter you!"
Huo Lingjiao couldn’t hold back any longer; after transforming back into human form, she quickly cast a spell, causing the Phoenix Fire Ancient Bell to rapidly shrink, incinerating the old man to ashes.
Soon, rich malice was emitted.
Ye Feng quickly took out a Malice Crystal with an immature Evil Thought Fruit, absorbing the malice, visibly enlarging the fruit slightly.
"Is this the Evil Thought Fruit?"
Huo Lingjiao blinked and asked.
"Yes, to restore the Black Prison Demonic Beast to its peak state, we need to help it obtain nine Evil Thought Fruits, otherwise, we’d lose a Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor."
Ye Feng said seriously.
As he spoke, he took the opportunity to absorb the fifty-layered Immortal Emperor Convict’s flesh and Law Energy, further advancing his own cultivation level.
He sensed that he was nearing the sixtieth level.
