Back in the Immortal Realm.
Shen Feng had read countless books, and the highest level of the Foundation Establishnt Stage was the tenth layer.
He had never heard of soone who could maintain the breakthrough within the Foundation Establishnt Stage after reaching the peak of the tenth layer.
But what were these two choices now laid before him?
After hesitating for a mont.
Shen Feng decided to try the unknown path; this ti, returning to Earth from the Immortal Realm, his cultivation scattered, and his body underwent changes.
Not only had he begun cultivating the perfected Emperor King Jue from the start, but an enigmatic Black Dot also appeared in his Dantian, and he stepped into the tenth layer within the Foundation Establishnt Stage as well.
All these changes were destined to an he would not tread the old paths once taken in the Immortal Realm.
Intuition told him that he should step into the unknown path.
Upon returning to the Immortal Realm, he still had to help his eldest disciple, Lan Binghan, retrieve the Lotus Heart; her strength might surpass his peak state from before, so he had to beco even stronger than his forr self.
After making up his mind.
Shen Feng, no longer hesitant, circulated the Emperor King Jue within his body, suppressing the breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage. The Spiritual Energy in his body began to circulate in a bizarre manner.
Upon choosing to enter that unknown path.
His consciousness entered a realm of illusion, surrounded by utter darkness; he tried to exit this illusion but was unable to do so.
Shen Feng's consciousness began to grope through this silent, pitch-black space, where there was nothing but an endless void of darkness.
In such an environnt, anyone with faltering ntal fortitude would likely collapse under the strain.
Suddenly.
A Shadow Man appeared within this dark, illusory space, and its presence made the space a bit brighter.
When Shen Feng saw the Shadow Man's features, his eyes sharply focused, for the Shadow Man looked exactly like him.
"Relax a little. I won't harm you; on the contrary, I am here to help you break through to the Immortal Emperor realm sooner," the Shadow Man, identical to Shen Feng, said with a smile.
Shen Feng's brow furrowed even tighter.
Seeing this, the Shadow Man said, "Don't you trust ?"
"But that's alright, you'll believe soon enough."
As he spoke.
The Shadow Man's palm extended towards Shen Feng, releasing a powerful yet gentle energy from his palm.
Shen Feng felt rapid energy absorption from the Shadow Man, his inner montum skyrocketing. If he could be provided with a continuous supply of energy, perhaps he could restore himself to the Immortal Emperor realm in one fell swoop.
"Close your eyes and focus! Right now, you need to be without distractions. Don't you want to return to the Immortal Realm sooner?" the Shadow Man commanded.
At his words.
Shen Feng began to concentrate on absorbing the Shadow Man's energy.
As ti slowly passed.
At this mont.
Outside the gate of the Xu Family estate.
It had been a long ti since Shen Feng's consciousness entered the illusory space. He felt his montum soaring while absorbing the Shadow Man's energy, yet the vigor of his physical body was fading, his breathing through the nose becoming sluggish, with his face starting to show a sickly pallor.
Xu Nansheng and Xu Huifang, among others, saw this scene and worry imdiately surfaced on their faces; they dared not approach and disturb him.
anwhile, Wu Ruicheng, Qiu Shenghai, and others, seeing Shen Feng's weakened state, entertained thoughts of escaping, even contemplating taking advantage of the situation to attack him.
But rembering Shen Feng's demonstrated combat power, they abandoned the idea and instead retreated even further.
Xu Nanzhou had already had Old Master Xu's body cremated, and at this mont, he, Xu Guanyao, Xu Xiujie, and Wu Ruicheng stood together.
After losing an arm, Xu Xiujie's condition had improved significantly following Wu Ruicheng's treatnt.
However, upon seeing the loss of his arm, Xu Xiujie was so furious that he nearly went mad.
"It's all that brat Shen Feng's fault. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been implicated," Xu Xiujie said in a low voice.
Xu Guanyao wanted to cover Xu Xiujie's mouth, but after seeing Shen Feng growing even weaker in the distance, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Valley Master Wu, what's wrong with this kid? His condition looks dire," Xu Guanyao inquired.
After a few seconds of contemplation, Wu Ruicheng said, "It looks like a kind of backlash from so secret technique. In fact, this kid never had the strength to kill a Golden Core expert."
"Looking at his near-death state, even if he could use the secret technique again after the true powers of Thunder Sound Hall, Heavenly dicine Sect, and Fire Burning Valley arrive, it probably won't make a difference. Does he really think that the powerhouses from thousands of years ago within our sects were all pushovers?"
Xu Xiujie couldn't contain his rage, "Then why don't we make a move now, Valley Master Wu?"
Wu Ruicheng's expression tightened with displeasure, "Although he looks very weak, who knows if he still has so fighting power reserved? I don't think anyone wants to be the first to poke the hornet's nest."
"The people from dicine King Sect haven't made a move, so why should we take the risk!"
"Just wait patiently! Once the powerhouses from the three Great Sects arrive, it will be too late for the kid to beg for rcy, even if he kneels."
Just as Wu Ruicheng had said.
Qiu Shenghai and Yan Yulei from dicine King Sect were also observing. Shen Feng's earlier display of power had intimidated them, and even now, as Shen Feng appeared extrely weak, they did not have the courage to act.
Ti hastened on.
Days and nights passed.
When the sun rose on the second day.
Shen Feng, sitting cross-legged on the ground, was barely breathing; his complexion was that of a dead man.
Xu Huifang, Xu Nansheng, Song Tianhao, Wu Xingliang, and others were anxiously fussing around him.
anwhile, Wu Ruicheng, Qiu Shenghai, and the others' smiles grew more pronounced at the corners of their mouths. Of course, they would prefer if Shen Feng simply dropped dead.
Yin ngwei's gaze was fixed intently on Shen Feng, her eyes bloodshot. As she watched Shen Feng's breath wane, excitent was mounting on her face.
While Shen Feng's consciousness was in an illusory space.
He was fully absorbed in assimilating the energy of the Shadow Man, when suddenly the Immortal Realm Fire, which stabilized his Divine Soul, unleashed a fierce burning power, causing him excruciating pain, which snapped him out of his imrsed state.
"What's happening? Continue to focus and absorb the energy," the Shadow Man said with displeasure.
After regaining his senses.
The more Shen Feng thought about it, the more sothing felt wrong. He was in the state of consciousness; how could re consciousness absorbing energy benefit him?
Before, when he entered this illusory space, his consciousness must have been ensnared by a trick, and from the mont the Shadow Man appeared, Shen Feng had been entirely following its lead.
Knowing he needed energy and needed to recover the cultivation of Immortal Emperor quickly, it attracted him. Coupled with the trick on his consciousness, it made him instinctively trust it.
This was perhaps just a test, a challenge to break through to the next mysterious level.
After realizing this, Shen Feng took several steps forward without any hesitation, and delivered a punch towards the Shadow Man.
"Pfft!" was heard.
After taking the punch, the Shadow Man imdiately dissipated in the illusory space, offering no resistance whatsoever.
All of it had been an illusion.
Afterward.
The entire dark illusory space beca brighter and brighter, and a straight path of light appeared in front of Shen Feng.
After hesitating for two seconds, he charged into the bright path.
