After receiving instructions from Yuan Hong, Yuan Guangxu secretly sent people to contact various forces, large and small, and he even personally went to negotiate with the Yan family and the Shang family.
Those powerful figures discovered that several talented disciples had recently disappeared without a trace, and they suspected that it might be the work of the Black Fiend Immortal Palace.
They were angry but dared not speak out, and were troubled by this matter.
Now that the Yuan family has taken the initiative to approach them and offer to join forces against the Black Fiend Immortal Palace, they agreed after a slight hesitation.
Yuan Guangxu was very satisfied with the reactions of these people, as for the Yan and Shang families.
The merchant, as always, stated that they would not participate.
The Yan family initially adopted a wait-and-see attitude, but later wavered under the promise of benefits from Yuan Guangxu, saying they would make a move depending on the situation.
Yuan Guangxu was not very satisfied with this, but he dared not force the issue, lest he drive the Yan family to the Black Fiend Immortal Palace.
The Yuan family was making preparations in full swing, while the Black Fiend Immortal Palace remained silent, as if nothing had happened.
...
After Ao Ling overcame her tribulation and regained her memories, her eyes would occasionally glance at Qin Feng.
She had always been attached to Qin Feng, and now she was even more dependent on him, so she cultivated even more diligently.
Qin Feng noticed her change and roughly knew what had happened. Looking at her still-childish face full of determination, he felt both gratified and heartbroken.
He shook his head, gathering his scattered thoughts and focusing on improving his cultivation.
It would be best to provoke conflict between the Black Fiend Immortal Palace and the Yuan family, letting them fight like dogs, but he didn't know how fierce the battle would escalate.
He must possess immense power to control the outcome.
He took out most of the immortal crystals he had obtained and spread them out in all directions with a wave of his hand, creating a mountain-like mass.
As Qin Feng circulated his cultivation technique, the immortal crystals ignited rapidly, like the vegetation on the mountain being set ablaze, and the fire grew increasingly fierce.
His aura grew stronger and stronger, and his cultivation level improved visibly, bringing him closer and closer to the Celestial Immortal Realm.
The mountain of fairy crystals began to collapse from the mountaintop, forming a plain on the mountainside, until only the foot of the mountain remained. If this continued, all the fairy crystals would be swept away.
Just then, Qin Feng's aura suddenly surged, entering a new level—the Celestial Immortal Realm, far stronger than the True Immortal Realm.
Everything went very smoothly. He had only been in the Immortal Realm for about a month when he advanced from a Profound Immortal to a Celestial Immortal, which was unprecedented.
If I told this to others, I doubt anyone would believe me.
Qin Feng felt that from the Emperor Realm to the Profound Immortal Realm, from the Profound Immortal Realm to the True Immortal Realm, and from the True Immortal Realm to the Celestial Immortal Realm, he did not feel any obvious bottlenecks, as long as he had enough Immortal Crystals.
He checked his physical condition briefly and found that his soul had become much stronger and his immortal essence was more abundant, and he felt no discomfort.
He glanced at the remaining immortal crystals on the ground, but did not retrieve them. Instead, he circulated his cultivation technique again to stabilize his cultivation level, and absorbed them all in a whirlwind.
After Qin Feng finished doing all this, his eyes turned cold.
"It's been quite a few days, hasn't it? Things should have fermented enough by now. I wonder if the Yuan family has gotten involved?"
He called out to Ao Ling, "Ling'er, it's time to get down to business."
Ao Ling stopped cultivating, and the two prepared to leave.
At this moment, Qin Feng received a message from Feng Jian of the Feng Sha Sect.
"Young friend, after you left, I started contacting various forces, large and small, to inquire about their recent situation."
As we suspected, many of their talented disciples have gone missing, and they are currently facing a dilemma.
I recently heard that many members of the Yuan family have died. Was this your doing?
If you hadn't told me beforehand, I would never have imagined that such a big thing was done by you, young friend.
I'm contacting you today to let you know that your efforts have likely paid off.
An elder from the Jin Yuan family contacted me, hoping to form an alliance with our Feng Sha Sect to jointly fight against the Hei Sha Immortal Palace.
At first I pretended to be somewhat reluctant, but after they promised me a lot of benefits if I won, I finally agreed.
They've even brought up the post-war distribution; it seems the Yuan family is serious this time.
"The fact that the Yuan family approached me suggests they've secretly contacted many others; the Yuan family is planning something big this time."
Qin Feng checked the information and replied to Feng Jian: "It's better that the Yuan family is taking the initiative. You need to be careful. The Yuan family wants to use you as the vanguard."
Things were going well, he was in a good mood, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Seeing that his expression suddenly changed, Ao Ling asked curiously, "What's wrong, Brother Feng?"
Qin Feng explained, "It's good news. What we did recently has been effective. The Yuan family is going to retaliate, and it looks like they're serious."
Ao Ling nodded. "Should we continue our actions, or wait and see?"
Qin Feng smiled and looked at her, then slowly said:
"The fire hasn't really started yet, so of course we should add fuel to the fire."
We helped the Black Fiend Immortal Palace vent their anger before, so this time let's help the Yuan family.
No matter how well the Yuan family tries to hide their activities, news will eventually leak out, and the Black Fiend Immortal Palace will inevitably receive the news and make preparations accordingly.
"Ling'er, tell me, if a large number of people from the Black Fiend Immortal Palace were to die right now, who would they think was responsible, and how would they react?"
Ao Ling's eyes lit up. "They will definitely think that the Yuan family has launched a counterattack. This will be like a fuse that ignites the war."
Qin Feng nodded, his gaze sharp as a knife.
"That's right. We should add fuel to the fire while the two sides are on the verge of conflict. Delaying will only lead to complications. We shouldn't give them a chance to calm down."
"We've almost used up our immortal crystals; it's time to stock up."
The two changed their clothes, donned the Yuan family's attire, altered their appearances, and wore the Yuan family's tokens at their waists and held the Yuan family's swords.
