The Dao Body was divided into nine stars, with one star being the weakest and nine stars being the strongest.
Of course, Fang Chen did not know if there was a higher level above nine stars.
"One star Dao Body."
Fang Chen's eyes were burning with passion as he spoke excitedly.
Under normal circumstances, only fighters in the Qi Hai Realm could transform their mortal body into a Dao Body. For Fang Chen to be able to do this with his cultivation in the Qi Transformation Realm, it was enough to show how strong Fang Chen's talent was.
Although he only had a One star Dao Body, Fang Chen was already very satisfied.
Now that his physical body had reached the One Star Dao Body, Fang Chen's strength had also increased tremendously. Now, Fang Chen was confident that if he were to meet a mid-stage Ninth Level Qi Transformation Realm martial artist like Gu Yao, he would be able to easily defeat him.
"With a One star Dao Body, I should strike while the iron is hot and cultivate the Solitary Emptiness Fist."
Fang Chen immediately made a decision to cultivate the Solitary Emptiness Fist.
This was because the Solitary Emptiness Fist was an extremely domineering fist technique. The stronger the body, the easier it was to cultivate it. Having just attained a One star Dao Body, he could strike while the iron was hot.
Ha!
As he spoke, Fang Chen began to cultivate the Solitary Emptiness Fist.
The Solitary Emptiness Fist had a total of three moves. Fang Chen had already cultivated the first move to the Complete Realm. Now, cultivating the second move was very easy.
After all, Fang Chen's body had attained a One star Dao Body.
After two hours, Fang Chen had successfully cultivated the second move of the Solitary Emptiness Fist.
"I've gained a lot."
Although Fang Chen did not know where he had entered, he knew that he had gained a lot.
Subsequently, Fang Chen consolidated his Heaven Void Solitary Void Fist and continued to move forward. He wanted to explore the forest and find out what was inside.
In an open space somewhere in the Dark Sky Plains, Xing Yue was battling a Heavenly Imperial Lake martial artist of the Qi Transformation Realm.
Although this Ninth Realm Heavenly Imperial Lake fighter was no match for Star and Moon, he could still hold his own for a while.
Swoosh
Star and Moon flicked his wrist, and a silver longsword appeared in his hand. In the next moment, a sky full of sword light appeared, piercing towards the Ninth Realm martial artist.
"What Star and Moon Firefly Sword?"
The Qi Transformation Ninth Realm martial artist had a grave expression on his face. When he realized that his opponent was using the Star and Moon Firefly Sword, his face was filled with fear.
"You're the expert on the Qi Ranking, Star and Moon!" the warrior cried out.
"It's too late for you to realize that now."
Star and Moon shouted. In the next moment, Star and Moon executed her Firefly Sword, instantly killing this cultivator.
However, what Star and Moon didn't know was that the martialist had crushed the communication jade pendant in his hand the moment he recognized Star and Moon.
After killing the Ninth Level Qi Transformation Realm martial artist, Star and Moon took the silver longsword and disappeared from the open space.
At the same time, in the stronghold of the Dark Sky Plains of the three factions alliance.
When the higher-ups of the three factions heard the news, their faces darkened.
"Who would have thought that there would be an expert on the Qi Ranking among the outsiders," the Heavenly Imperial Lake elder said in a low voice.
"So what if she's an expert on the Qi Ranking? She's dead for sure if she dares to offend the three factions," the Wood Dragon Stronghold elder said.
"That's right. Since we know that she's an expert on the Qi Ranking, sending a Qi Transformation Realm martial artist to kill her is useless. Let's just send a Qi Hai expert," the Gu Clan elder said.
Although the three factions were powerful, most of the people in the Sect were Qi Transformation Realm martial artists. Those who could reach the Qi Hai Realm were basically elders.
Doing so meant that they would have to send a Sect elder.
"Now that things have come to this, there's no other way," the Heavenly Imperial Lake elder said in a low voice.
At this moment, Fang Chen was exploring the forest. He didn't know that the three factions had already sent a Qi Hai expert to kill them.
In the forest, after Fang Chen walked past the area where the Zhentian Tiger was, he found another area. However, this area was surrounded by an aura of death. There wasn't a single beast in sight. This made Fang Chen very confused.
"Why aren't there any beasts here?" Fang Chen asked.
However, just as Fang Chen finished speaking, a sharp arrow suddenly shot from afar.
Without hesitation, Fang Chen activated the Solitary Emptiness Fist. He gathered all the strength in his body on his fist and punched out.
Crack!
The fist hit the arrow, instantly shattering it.
In the next moment, a black figure appeared in front of Fang Chen. His face was filled with a sinister expression and his eyes were bloodthirsty scarlet.
"Survivor of the Yellow Spring Sect!"
Seeing this, Fang Chen cried out involuntarily.
He could feel the aura of the Bloody Skeleton and the others from this black figure.
"Hehe, I didn't expect you to know about the Yellow Spring Sect. But so what? You're going to die today," the black figure said sinisterly.
"Hmph, you're just a captain of the Yellow Spring Sect," Fang Chen sneered.
"Kid, even if I'm just a captain, it's enough to kill you," the black figure said.
"In the past, there were a few captains of the Yellow Spring Sect who were confident that they could kill me. But in the end, they were all killed by me," Fang Chen said.
"Hmm."
Hearing this, the black figure's expression changed slightly. His pupils constricted as he looked at Fang Chen.
"Captain Bloody Skeleton, Captain Sha Zhao, Captain Tian Hong, Captain Meng Mo. You should know these people, right?"
After Fang Chen found out that the person in front of him was a captain of the Yellow Spring Sect, he wasn't afraid at all.
"You, you're lying. With your strength, it's impossible for you to kill them," the black figure roared angrily.
"Not only will I kill them, but I'll also kill you," Fang Chen sneered.
"You're courting death!"
The black figure roared furiously. Immediately, his body flashed and he unleashed a sharp attack in an attempt to kill Fang Chen.
Bang bang bang!
After a few exchanges, Fang Chen realized that although the black figure was one of the captains of the Yellow Spring Sect, his cultivation base hadn't fully recovered.
"Hmph, you dare to come out and make a fool of yourself when your cultivation base hasn't recovered."
Fang Chen sneered. In the next instant, he used the second move of the Solitary Emptiness Fist and punched the black figure.
The black figure let out a muffled groan as his body was sent flying.
"How is this possible?"
The black figure's eyes were filled with shock. He couldn't understand how a martial artist at the Fifth Realm of the Qi Transformation Realm could be so strong.
Bang!
Another punch landed, and the black figure died instantly.
"You're only at the Eighth Realm of the Qi Transformation Realm."
Fang Chen withdrew his fist. His eyes were filled with mockery.
After killing the black figure, Fang Chen continued forward. His intuition told him that this place had something to do with the Yellow Spring Sect.
After walking for about an hour, Fang Chen finally found the root of the problem.
This was a mysterious valley with verdant hills and limpid waters.
In the middle of the valley, there was an altar. It was pitch black above the altar, and a figure was lying in the middle of the altar.
The figure seemed to be heavily injured and was using the altar to gather the energy of heaven and earth to heal himself.
Fang Chen recognized at a glance that the figure was one of the remaining members of the Yellow Spring Sect.
"Judging by his aura, he's stronger than the black figure from before. Could he be the Hall Leader of the Yellow Spring Sect?" Fang Chen's expression changed as he said in a low voice.
The Yellow Spring Sect had 108 captains, 72 hall leaders, and 36 protectors.
Every captain was at the peak of the Ninth Realm of the Qi Transformation Realm. The hall leaders were at the peak of the Qi Sea Realm. As for the protectors, their cultivation had surpassed the Qi Sea Realm.
This was the first time Fang Chen had met the Hall Leader of the Yellow Spring Sect. But from the looks of it, he seemed to be heavily injured.
Fang Chen carefully walked to the altar. Suddenly, a thick black aura emerged from the altar and enveloped the Hall Leader.
"Thief, you dare to intrude upon this hall master's healing area?!" Suddenly, a voice entered Fang Chen's ears.
Fang Chen looked over and found that the figure on the altar was motionless. Even his eyes were not moving. But he was sure that the voice came from the figure's body.
In an instant, Fang Chen determined that the Hall Leader was heavily injured and couldn't move. Otherwise, he wouldn't be like this.
"You are so heavily injured. Can you still stop me?" Fang Chen laughed.
"Hmph, I am one of the 72 hall leaders of the Yellow Spring Sect. How dare you blaspheme me? If I wasn't heavily injured, you would already be a dead man," the figure said in a low voice.
The more he acted like this, the more Fang Chen was sure that the Hall Leader was heavily injured and couldn't move.
"Is that so?"
As he spoke, Fang Chen activated his Spirit Seed. Strands of invisible energy rushed into Fang Chen's mind and drilled into the Hall Leader's mind.
"Thief, what are you doing?" The Hall Leader was shocked and shouted angrily.
"I want to control you."
When the last word was spoken, Fang Chen increased his strength and activated his Spirit Seed to the maximum. A large amount of invisible energy drilled into the Hall Leader's mind.
At first, the Hall Leader's mind resisted. But as time passed, his injuries worsened and he couldn't care less.
"Thief, I will definitely kill you."
After the Hall Leader shouted his last words, he was completely controlled by Fang Chen.
After controlling the Hall Leader of the Yellow Spring Sect, Fang Chen's face revealed a trace of a smile.
"Master," the Hall Leader transmitted his voice.
"What's your cultivation level now?" Fang Chen asked.
"My cultivation level is at the first level of the Qi Hai realm. But I am confident that I can recover to my peak state within two years," the Hall Leader said.
"Are there treasures in the Dark Sky Plains?" Fang Chen asked.
The Hall Leader thought for a moment and said, "The treasures master is talking about should be the place where the Water Demon fell."
"Water Demon" Fang Chen was puzzled.
"A long time ago, the Yellow Spring Sect fought against many forces in the Ancient Sword Continent. At that time, I was fighting against the Water Demon in the Dark Sky Plains. The Water Demon died on the spot, and I barely managed to survive. I have been recovering here all these years," the Hall Leader said.
