Chapter 561: Chapter 557 Elder’s message Spider Evil God

Heavenly Snake Ridge, within the Cave Mansion.

Qin Feng sat cross-legged on the cushion.

Several days had passed since he returned to the Sect, and although the disciples were still jubilant, the market outside the Mountain Gate was busier than before, making the Beast Taming Sect swell with popularity and profits. After all, with so many people arriving, the expenses for food, drink, lodge, and travel were substantial, not to mention the dazzling array of treasures and exotic beasts at the market that few could resist.

However, these matters had little to do with him. The Sect wouldn’t require him to manage its mundane affairs, as this would delay his cultivation time.

For the disciples who had received Qi Fortune rewards from the recent trial, the Sect was now trying to increase their cultivation intensity rather than reduce their cultivation time with mundane tasks.

At this moment, Qin Feng wasn’t practicing any Cultivation Methods; instead, he was lost in contemplation.

He was considering the direction of his cultivation for the near future.

Although he had advanced to Purple Mansion, this level of cultivation would be woefully inadequate in the great era that was soon to arrive.

If he wished to participate in greater wars in the future, or even directly command battles to conquer worlds he coveted, to seize treasures that were greatly beneficial to him, or to reach an exceedingly high realm when seeking revenge against ancient enemies during the time of the Ancient Great Tribulation, mere step-by-step cultivation wouldn’t suffice!

Even if the Heavenly Dao favored him, bestowing immense Qi Fortune upon him, that was merely a lever facilitating his path. Ultimately, he still had to tread the road himself. Being blessed by Heavenly Dao’s Qi Fortune did not equate to pies falling into his lap while he lay idle. If he wanted fortunate encounters and treasures, if he wanted faster progress in cultivation, he would still need to plan meticulously.

As he pondered deeply, and a direction faintly emerged, a streak of light suddenly flew towards the Cave Mansion from the outside, turning into a Communication Talisman that twirled twice within the Protective Mansion Array before coming to a stop, subtly emanating Spirit Light fluctuations, notifying the Cave Mansion’s master of a message being sent!

Qin Feng extended his hand and beckoned, and immediately the Prohibition of the Cave Mansion Array opened a path, drawing the Communication Talisman to him.

He pressed his right index finger upon it, and immediately, a stream of thought flowed out.

“Hmm?”

Qin Feng was slightly taken aback after reading it.

This was a Communication Spirit Talisman from the Internal Affairs Hall of the Sect.

The Talisman was not commanding him to undertake any tasks but was informing him of a matter and inquiring his opinion.

When he first returned from the Otherworld after the trial, Qin Feng had expressed to the Gui Ling Ancestor his desire for a Dark System Space Treasure to nurture the Ghost-Faced Spider.

That Ghost-Faced Spider had followed him for quite some time, ever since he was still in the Qi Refining Realm, and had played no small role in missions or battles. Over time, Qin Feng naturally grew fond of it.

More importantly, over the past years, although Qin Feng had never cultivated it as a Main Spirit Beast, it had its share of fortunate encounters. It never lagged in cultivation, never fell behind, and was always able to keep up with Qin Feng’s pace of Cultivation, playing a unique role in various combat situations.

Thus, Qin Feng wanted to cultivate this Ghost-Faced Spider.

If it could be so outstanding without focused cultivation, wouldn’t there be a qualitative improvement and a greater role if it were cultivated with emphasis?

However, at the time, the Gui Ling Ancestor did not have a Dark System Space Treasure, and later the Sect was asked to prepare several for Qin Feng to choose from as a backup.

This task was very simple for a Major Sect, especially for the Beast Taming Sect which had already occupied a mid-sized Demon Realm. They could simply send an Elder adept at refining Space Treasures into the Red Flame Demon Realm to cut and refine the space into a treasure.

But since Qin Feng had gone into closed-door Cultivation for several years after that, and the Sect was far from Lingxiao City, there was no need for the Sect to dispatch high-ranking figures to the Central Region to deliver treasures, as long as Qin Feng had not left seclusion.

Now that Qin Feng had returned, as a core disciple the Sect was focusing on nurturing, the Internal Affairs Hall certainly hadn’t forgotten about the matter commissioned by the Gui Ling Ancestor.

However, as Qin Feng’s cultivation soared and his War Power surged, it suddenly dawned on the Internal Affairs Hall that the previously prepared Dark System Space Treasures seemed somewhat inadequate.

Although they would still suffice for Qin Feng’s current Cultivation, they had to consider the future, not just the present.

The speed of Cultivation of the Chosen Son blessed with great Qi Fortune wouldn’t be slow. The Elders of the Sect could foresee that Qin Feng’s cultivation would skyrocket over a short period. If it was only the Dharma Image or Primordial Spirit realms, it would be manageable, but if he were to attain Immortal Dao in a short time, ordinary treasures would certainly be unsuitable.

As a result, the Elders of the Internal Affairs Hall hadn’t had an easy time with this issue. If they were to refine an Immortal Artifact, it would not only require the involvement of the Sect’s Supreme Elders but also finding a suitable space and having a strong Spirit Vein to support it. How else could they accommodate the cultivation of Spiritual Beasts by Qin Feng at a higher Realm?

Just as the Elders of the Internal Affairs Hall felt challenged, a piece of news arrived from Luo Zhancheng, instantly enlightening the Elders.

Luo Zhancheng and the others were thriving in that world, openly allying with the Elves, Dwarfs, Giants, Giant Dragons, and other clans, while secretly they persuaded several Divines of that world. Through continuous battles, and by exhausting the veteran powerhouses of the Beastman Clan who refused to take orders, they defeated the Human Clan army supported by the Light God Realm and other Divines and destroyed the Space Gates that directly connected the Light God Realm and the Natural Divine Realm to that world.

Afterward, Luo Zhancheng and others somewhat let loose, leading the Beastman Army on campaigns to the east and west, launching a series of major battles, and had already occupied more than half the world. Only an alliance of various races in the south of the continent was barely hanging on, resisting the Beastman Army’s onslaught.

But apart from the divine beings who had died in the war, there were still some gods that they had never encountered before.

For instance, the Clan Leader of the Giant Dragon Clan who had always remained out of sight, or the powerful Demon Beasts dwelling in seclusion in a certain forest, or the Spider Queen of the Underground World, adept at luring living beings into corruption.

Since the resistance mood among the alliances of the races was strong, Luo Zhancheng and his group also wanted to take this opportunity to consolidate the territories they had already occupied, so they temporarily paused their offensive on the surface and shifted their focus to the Underground World.

And the largest force in the Underground World was undoubtedly led by the evil Spider Queen.

Although the other powerful Lords also possessed extraordinary might, they were much inferior compared to the Spider Queen!

The others might be left aside, but when the Elders of the Internal Affairs Hall heard the news that Luo Zhancheng and his people were preparing to besiege the Spider Evil God, they immediately thought of Qin Feng.

Originally, when the Gui Ling Ancestor had sent a message back, it said that the Space Magical Treasure prepared for Qin Feng was intended for a Ghost-Faced Spider, so they immediately dug out all sorts of information on the Spider Evil God of the Underground World and soon came to the conclusion that it was perfectly suitable for Qin Feng. Thereupon, they quickly sent a Communication Talisman to Qin Feng to ask what he thought about refining the Spider Queen’s nest into a Space Magical Treasure.

Qin Feng, upon seeing this message, was also moved.

He quickly weighed his options, and then suddenly got up, deciding to personally make a trip to the Underground World.

Of course, his trip was not to face the Spider Queen in person–she was an Evil God, not something he could handle.

The reason he wanted to go himself was to obtain other benefits.

Apart from the Spider Queen’s nest, which he was determined to obtain, the Underground World was home to a wide variety of Demon Spiders, and he intended to select a few with exceptional abilities to cultivate his Ghost-Faced Spider.

Also, there was the War Ancient Tree of the Elf Clan!

After transforming the Soul Devouring Vine Demon into the Tree of Life, he had decided to integrate it with a War Ancient Tree to enhance its battle capabilities significantly, for relying on its current abilities alone seemed somewhat insufficient.

The Life Tree was most adept at the Life Principle, and although these principles were mighty, they were not particularly strong in combat.

Even its most powerful Divine Skill, Life Stripping, which was formidable against ordinary beings, since with one use it could take the lives of a great number of them, was very limited in its effects when facing opponents of the same or a higher realm.

Not to mention that the strong could use Laws to block it, the mere lifetime of the strong was extremely long–how many lifetimes of origin would need to be stripped away to kill an adversary?

Qin Feng hadn’t cultivated it to deal only with ordinary beings, so he must find a way to boost its combat ability, making the Tree Demon known for warfare, the War Ancient Tree, his target.

Because Luo Zhancheng and his people had not yet conquered the Elf Forest, the Beast Taming Sect currently did not have such an atypical Tree Demon, so he also planned to take one or two War Ancient Trees back with him on this trip.

Actually, if he had sent word out, the Sect would quickly provide him with everything he needed without him having to lift a finger, but the reason he was determined to make the trip himself was that he understood that opportunities never come without cause.

He couldn’t afford to give up making an effort simply because he was blessed with Qi Fortune; otherwise, even with great Qi Fortune, he would eventually lose it all due to laziness!

Qin Feng stood up, planning to go to the Internal Affairs Hall to inquire about the specific situation, and then ask the Sect to open a Space Gate to that world for him!

Although the Space Gate had only recently been opened, and there were more than three hundred days left until the annual transport time, given the Sect’s current attitude, they would certainly be willing to open the Space Gate for him. Compared to any bit of Qin Feng’s progress and opportunities, the resources spent on opening the Space Gate were truly trivial–once he grew stronger, he would repay the Sect a thousandfold.

In fact, with Qin Feng’s current achievements or the opportunities he had earned during the previous trials, the Sect was more than willing to open the gates of convenience for him!

After leaving the Cave Mansion, Qin Feng prepared to go to the Internal Affairs Hall.

However, before his White Dragon had flown far, he encountered Li Miaozhen, who was idling away her time in sheer boredom.

Li Miaozhen was listlessly entertaining her younger junior sister at the moment.

After a decade apart, the little loli missed her greatly and had been clinging to her all day long in the past days, almost to the point of wanting to hang onto her all the time, bombarding her with endless questions and nearly driving the energetic Li Miaozhen to the brink of collapse.

She responded sporadically to Luoluo’s multitude of questions while unconsciously resting her hand on the little girl’s head, rummaging through her originally shiny hair and making it look as untidy as a bird’s nest.

However, Luoluo was very delicate in appearance, so even with her hair all over the place, she still looked incredibly pretty, and it even added a touch of cuteness!

PS: Brothers, I’ve seen the message sent from the backend, saying that there’s a double monthly ticket event at the end of this month, starting from the 29th until the end of the 31st. Those who still have monthly tickets may hold on for a couple more days before casting them…
