Chapter 1910 Good Fortune Arrives (4K)
Chen Fei withdrew his gaze from the increasingly violent, world-ending phenomenon in the sky, his eyes calm and collected. The turmoil and transformation of the secret realm's origin were becoming more and more apparent; Chen Fei could not stop this cataclysmic change in the world.
The most urgent task is to collect as many resources as possible before this upheaval completely erupts and the rules of the secret realm become completely disordered or even collapse. Immortal Crystals, as an indispensable hard currency for both the Immortal Realm and the Sovereign Realm, are naturally of paramount importance.
With a slight thought, Chen Fei scanned the Immortal Mystic Crystals stored within the Ruins of Return.
After previous transactions with Zhao Wuji and others, as well as the costs of his own cultivation and recovery of the Night Demon Warriors, he now has less than 10,000 units left.
This quantity might be acceptable for someone at the peak of the Immortal Realm, but who would complain about having too much of this kind of resource?
Without further hesitation, Chen Fei activated the purple-gold canopy of fortune above his head, which was adorned with countless auspicious energies and flowed with mysterious runes.
"Wow!"
As if a breeze had arisen, the canopy shone brightly, and the auspicious purple-gold aura that hung down began to flow and swirl. A mysterious and unpredictable power spread out, and in an instant, Chen Fei's perception underwent a different change.
Suddenly, an unprecedented sense of clear guidance, like a lighthouse in the night, appeared.
It was no longer a vague sense of direction, no longer a faint fluctuation that required careful discernment, but rather as if an incredibly precise map was unfolding before my eyes, with several points of light radiating a rich aura of immortal origin clearly marked on the map.
Each point of light represents an Immortal Realm Fire Spirit, and its position, distance, and even the strength of its aura are all clearly shown.
The closest one is 23 million miles away from here.
Even for those further away, within 300 million miles, the distance and location were clearly visible. The clarity and precision of this guidance were as if the Heavenly Dao of the Secret Realm itself was guiding him.
This aura canopy, when only slightly activated, displays a power completely different from previous auras. It is not merely a symbol of fortune, but also contains a power that connects with heaven and earth and understands the origin.
This discovery stirred something in Chen Fei's heart. If the guidance of the Qi Luck Canopy was so clear and powerful, what about that Ge Lingcai?
Since Chen Fei obtained that fourteenth-grade top-quality spiritual material in the core of the Heavenly Pillar, the Heavenly Dao of the Secret Realm has never provided any new spiritual materials. Even after Chen Fei killed many peak Immortal Realm experts, there was no further response.
It is unclear whether the disruption of the Heavenly Dao rules was caused by the transformation of the secret realm itself, or by other unknown reasons.
The value of rank-level spiritual materials naturally exceeds that of immortal crystals. Many sects have reserves of immortal crystals, but they have already exhausted their reserves of rank-14 spiritual materials.
Ranked spiritual materials are the cornerstone of breaking through realms, especially those above the fourteenth rank. In the Xuan Yu Realm, they are truly strategic resources. Sects like the Illusionary Transformation Sect did not have any reserves before, but instead gave them to suitable disciples for breakthroughs as soon as they were obtained.
Therefore, if Chen Fei were to obtain a spiritual material of rank fourteen or higher, even if he couldn't use it himself, the sect's patriarch would definitely provide him with a generous compensation far exceeding its market value.
With this thought in mind, Chen Fei immediately tried to concentrate his mind and focus his attention on the fourteenth-grade top-quality spiritual material.
As Chen Fei's thoughts raced, the purple-gold auspicious canopy above his head suddenly surged violently, and the originally calmly flowing auspicious energy became restless, like a lake surface thrown with a boulder.
A vague sensation, as if seen through a thick layer of glass, appeared in Chen Fei's mind. This sensation was extremely weak and its exact location was difficult to discern.
But Chen Fei keenly sensed that, as time went by, this vague feeling was gradually becoming clearer at a slow but steady pace, as if the power of the Qi Yun Hua Gai was penetrating some invisible barrier and struggling to find its target.
At the same time, Chen Fei clearly sensed that the vast and powerful fortune within the Qi Yun Hua Gai was being consumed at an unprecedented rate.
When guiding the Immortal Realm Fire Spirit before, there was no consumption at all. Obviously, guiding the Rank Spirit Material, a treasure hidden by the Heavenly Dao in a secret realm, consumes an extremely terrifying amount of luck.
Chen Fei frowned slightly, but did not stop. He sensed the rate at which his luck was being lost. When the total amount of luck consumed was equivalent to the luck plundered from killing two peak Immortal Realm Heavenly Demons, the vague sense finally became crystal clear.
The target is still inside the central pillar in the distance, and its exact location is clearly visible!
"Sure enough!"
Chen Fei's eyes flashed with a sharp light. The guiding ability of this Qi Luck Canopy was actually powerful enough to locate spiritual materials of a certain grade. This was undoubtedly a huge surprise.
However, the price was equally staggering, consuming the total amount of luck of two peak Immortal Realm Heavenly Demons, which was equivalent to him killing two equally powerful individuals and consuming all their accumulated luck.
If Chen Fei hadn't previously plundered a massive amount of fortune and possessed a profound foundation, this fortune-enhancing canopy would probably have dissipated again.
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Fei's figure vanished instantly, and the spatial staircase beneath his feet silently collapsed and folded. Following the clear guidance, Chen Fei arrived at the Heavenly Pillar in no time and then stepped inside.
Chen Fei traversed rapidly within the vast central celestial pillar, ignoring the raging energy turbulence and complex spatial structure along the way, easily tearing apart layer after layer of tough spatial barriers.
A moment later, Chen Fei appeared in a spatial fragment where only lava was rolling and fire waves were raging. The energy here was violent and the rules were chaotic, with nothing special about it.
Chen Fei's gaze swept across his surroundings like lightning, then locked onto an inconspicuous corner of the spatial fragment. His past self silently appeared, took a step forward, and slowly extended his right hand into the seemingly empty void ahead.
The moment the palm disappeared into the void, an extremely faint yet pure spatial wave rippled outwards. It was as if the palm of the past self had passed through an invisible membrane and entered a layered teleportation network constructed from countless miniature spatial nodes.
The ingenuity and depth of this network structure make it extremely difficult to detect its anomalies without the precise guidance of the Qi Yun Hua Gai (a Feng Shui concept).
The past self's hand followed a specific trajectory, as if unlocking invisible spatial seals. After a moment, the past self's hand withdrew, and in the palm of the hand was a piece of grayish-white material that looked like an ordinary rock.
It was a fourteenth-grade top-rank spiritual material in its sealed state, and its form and aura were exactly the same as the one obtained before.
Chen Fei looked calmly at the gray-white stone in his past self's hand. With a flick of his right hand, the fragment of the Heavenly Dao, radiating a chaotic halo, emerged from the spatial compartment and approached the gray-white stone.
"Buzz!"
The moment the two came into contact, the mysterious runes on the surface of the gray-white stone instantly lit up with a dazzling light, and then disappeared like melting ice and snow.
A vast, pure, and powerful aura, seemingly capable of carrying the very essence of a world, erupted with a deafening roar. The aura of the fourteenth-grade top-rank spiritual material transformed into a dazzling pillar of light that pierced through heaven and earth, soaring straight into the sky. A terrifying tide of energy swept across the world once more.
Chen Fei had anticipated this, and his expression remained unchanged. He carefully integrated the unsealed spiritual material, which exuded a powerful aura of origin, into his own innate spiritual status.
Only in this way can its inherent power be perfectly preserved and its power prevented from dissipating.
Having perfectly obtained a fourteenth-grade top-quality spiritual material, Chen Fei once again activated his Qi Luck Canopy, attempting to find the next fourteenth-grade top-quality spiritual material.
However, this time, as soon as Chen Fei locked his mind, his expression changed slightly.
The canopy of fortune trembled violently, the auspicious energy churning, and an even more terrifying suction force came from within, causing the fortune within the canopy to surge away like a river bursting its banks.
The rate of consumption is far faster than before. At this rate, to obtain clear guidance, it would probably require the combined fortune of more than a dozen peak Immortal Realm Heavenly Demons, at which point the Fortune Canopy would inevitably collapse.
Chen Fei stopped what he was doing, his brow furrowed; he had exhausted himself.
Although it hurt to pay for the fortune of two peak Immortal Realm Heavenly Demons, Chen Fei was willing to pay for the spiritual materials needed to reach the rank of Immortal Realm.
But a dozen or so portions? That's far too expensive!
The Qi Yun Hua Gai (a type of auspicious energy) is not easily formed, and its value lies far beyond mere guidance. The auspicious energy it bestows nourishes the physical body and soul, enhances the compatibility with the rules of heaven and earth, and may even contain other mysterious and undiscovered powers.
To seek another high-ranking spiritual material would be a greater loss than to let one's good fortune dissipate.
Moreover, Chen Fei did not know that if the Qi Yun Hua Gai (a protective canopy of fortune) dissipated, it would be possible to re-condense it by continuing to plunder Qi Yun.
Chen Fei began to lower his target, focusing his attention on the fourteenth-grade high-quality spiritual material.
However, the rate at which his luck was being consumed was still terrifying. Although it was slightly lower than that of a top-tier guide, it was still far beyond his tolerance. Clearly, this was not a matter of the target's grade.
Chen Fei looked up at the sky, his eyes deep and thoughtful.
Either the remaining spiritual materials are extremely far away from him, located in the deepest part of the secret realm or some forbidden area, causing a sharp increase in guidance consumption.
Either Chen Fei used the Qi Luck Canopy to bypass the Heavenly Dao rules of the secret realm, directly located and took away the spiritual material of the position, which triggered some deeper level of rule backlash or shielding, causing the difficulty and consumption of subsequent location to increase exponentially.
Just as cutting off immortal matter would attract the malice of the Heavenly Dao.
Chen Fei's gaze flickered, and he no longer insisted. Although the spiritual material of high quality was good, the cost of obtaining it was too great, so he could only give up for the time being.
Since high-ranking spiritual materials are hard to obtain, we should collect Immortal Mystic Crystals instead.
Chen Fei's thoughts shifted, and he activated the Qi Luck Canopy once more, focusing his attention on the Immortal Realm Fire Spirit. A clear guidance instantly descended, with several points of light clearly marked.
However, just as Chen Fei was about to set off, his movements suddenly stopped, and a thought flashed through his mind like lightning.
"Wait, there are other ways to obtain Immortal Crystals besides intercepting the origin of the Heavenly Dao."
Using the Nine Hells Heaven-Slaying Vein to intercept the immortal matter descending from the origin of the secret realm is extremely efficient, but each interception will attract the malicious mark of the secret realm's Heavenly Dao, as if carrying a curse.
Previously, the Heavenly Dao of the Secret Realm guided other powerful beings to attack and kill Chen Fei, which Chen Fei is no longer afraid of. However, the Secret Realm is currently undergoing a transformation. Could there be other ways to target Chen Fei?
Actually, there is an even safer way: those giant crystal pillars standing in various parts of the secret realm, formed from pure immortal mystic crystals, were specially condensed by those intelligent immortal fire spirits.
As Chen Fei focused his mind on the Immortal Mystic Crystal Pillar, the Qi Luck Canopy rippled once more. This time, it consumed slightly more Qi Luck than the Guiding Fire Spirit, but not by much. In just a moment, a clear guidance was instantly imprinted in Chen Fei's mind.
It wasn't inside this central celestial pillar, but it was only a few hundred million miles away from Chen Fei's current location.
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Fei immediately followed the guidance, his figure transforming into a streak of purple-gold light that tore through the void, rushing towards his target.
After several dozen breaths, Chen Fei's figure stopped in mid-air. All he could see was molten lava and waves of fire, nothing else.
Chen Fei looked down at the molten lava not far away and took a step forward.
"Buzz!"
After passing through a thick spatial barrier, the view suddenly opened up before us!
This is an extremely vast space, like a small world, which was previously hidden beneath the magma.
The sky was dark red, with flowing, lava-like fiery clouds. On the ground, instead of barren rock layers, there was a sea of viscous, molten, crimson lava that radiated terrifying heat.
In the lava sea, countless huge black reefs are scattered like islands, and in the very center of the space, a magnificent city built of dark blue metal, exuding an ancient and wild aura, stands majestically.
In the center of the city, a colossal crystal pillar, towering ten thousand feet high, crystal clear and radiating a majestic aura of immortality, stands like a divine mountain supporting the heavens and the earth, piercing straight into the clouds.
Within this giant crystal pillar, Chen Fei sensed the aura of a large amount of immortal mystic crystals.
Chen Fei's gaze did not linger on the crystal pillar for long, but instead fell on the central city.
Around the city, on the islands where the lava sea churned, powerful auras soared into the sky. Among them, the most eye-catching were three auras that burned like torches and exuded the terrifying pressure of the peak of the Immortal Realm.
Further away, there were more than thirty weaker, but equally formidable, auras of the Immortal Realm scattered throughout the area.
"Buzz!"
Without any probing or need for probing, the spatial staircase beneath Chen Fei's feet silently collapsed and folded, his figure instantly transforming into a streak of light as he rushed towards the central area, his target being the colossal crystal pillar that stood tens of thousands of feet tall and exuded a majestic aura of immortal origin.
"You audacious scoundrel, how dare you trespass into the Holy City!"
"court death!"
A thunderous roar erupted instantly, startling the peak-level fire spirits of the Immortal Realm who were entrenched in the triangular position of the crystal pillar. Their massive lava bodies stood up abruptly, their scarlet fire eyes like burning stars, locking onto the rapidly approaching figure. A violent killing intent, like a tangible lava storm, swept outwards.
One of the peak fire spirit leaders, clad in dark red lava armor and wielding a giant axe flowing with viscous demonic flames, reacted the fastest. It let out a deafening roar and pointed its giant axe at Chen Fei.
"Boom!"
The sea of lava in front of Chen Fei instantly boiled and exploded. Countless thick, dragon-like lava chains, wreathed in demonic flames, emerged like giant pythons from the abyss of hell, and instantly began to frantically coil and strangle Chen Fei.
Wherever the chains passed, space distorted and melted.
