The rest of the journey went exceptionally smoothly. Qin Feng encountered no further obstacles and traversed the Chaos Sea as if walking on flat ground, successfully arriving at the central region of the World Tree space.
Just as Xuan Guang had described before, the central area was shrouded in a powerful restriction.
Qin Feng stood before the barrier, staring at the faint energy fluctuations before him, secretly assessing the strength of the barrier in his mind.
After some observation, he discovered that the restriction was much stronger than he had originally imagined, and it would probably not be easy to break through it by force.
However, Qin Feng didn't care. He took a deep breath and secretly circulated the Law of Power within his body, preparing to break the restriction.
Just as he was about to exert his strength, a strange feeling suddenly welled up in his heart.
Qin Feng frowned slightly, his gaze quickly sweeping to the left. In an instant, his divine sense was released like a bolt of lightning, instantly covering the surrounding area.
When his divine sense touched those twenty or so powerful auras, he was shocked; they were actually members of the Spirit Clan.
A moment later, the twenty powerful auras finally appeared in Qin Feng's sight.
As Lingxuan and the others gradually came into focus in the distance, Qin Feng's gaze immediately fell on Ling Fengzi, who was standing next to Lingxuan.
With just one glance, Qin Feng felt an invisible pressure bearing down on him.
Ling Fengzi's strength felt unfathomable to him; his aura was far more powerful than any other half-step Heavenly Dao Realm expert he had ever seen.
Qin Feng was secretly amazed. This person was definitely the most powerful being he had ever encountered among all the half-step Heavenly Dao Realm beings, without exception.
Qin Feng couldn't help but start to assess the difference in strength between himself and Ling Fengzi.
He knew that if he really fought Ling Fengzi, even if he used all his trump cards, he might not be able to kill him.
Time flies, and in just a short while, Lingxuan and her group arrived in front of Qin Feng as swiftly as the wind.
After Lingxuan stopped, she looked Qin Feng up and down with a suspicious expression, as if she wanted to see him through from head to toe.
Although he already knew that Qin Feng had successfully broken through to the half-step Heavenly Dao Realm, he still harbored a slight doubt about the news and found it hard to fully believe.
After all, before Qin Feng stepped into the temple, he was just a Hongmeng Saint Emperor. Although his strength was considerable, it was still far behind that of a half-step Heavenly Dao Realm cultivator.
However, Qin Feng's achievement of such a huge breakthrough in less than a month is truly unbelievable and hard to fathom.
At the same time, Ling Fengzi's gaze was as sharp as lightning, fixed on Qin Feng's face, as if trying to see through his appearance to his true thoughts.
Those gleaming eyes seemed to conceal countless questions and a thirst for knowledge.
Lingzhi, on the other hand, seemed somewhat uneasy. She kept her head down, her gaze darting away, and she didn't even dare to look Qin Feng in the eye.
She was very anxious, afraid that Qin Feng would misunderstand and think that she was the one who led Ling Xuan and the others here to look for him.
"Kid, I really underestimated you!"
Lingxuan suddenly spoke, his voice icy cold, as if capable of freezing a person instantly. "I never imagined that you, a mere ant, could break through to the half-step Heavenly Dao Realm in such a short time!"
Qin Feng's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mocking smile. "Heh, it just shows that you look down on people!"
Lingxuan's face instantly turned ashen. He glared at Qin Feng, his eyes wide with fury. "Kid, how dare you insult me? You're asking for it!"
Qin Feng was not intimidated by Ling Xuan's imposing manner at all. He curled his lip in disdain and said, "So what if I insulted you?"
Lingxuan trembled with rage. He gritted his teeth and roared, "Fine, you arrogant fool, today I'll make you pay!"
Qin Feng, however, was unconvinced. He chuckled and said, "Oh? Is that so? Then I'll see just how capable you are."
"I wasn't afraid of you even when I was the Primordial Saint Emperor, let alone now that I've broken through to the Half-Step Heavenly Dao Realm!"
Qin Feng's words were full of confidence and provocation.
Lingxuan's face instantly turned extremely gloomy. He glared angrily, about to lash out, but at that moment, Lingfengzi suddenly raised his hand, signaling him to calm down.
Immediately afterward, Ling Fengzi's gaze became unusually calm. He stared at Qin Feng and said slowly, "Young friend, it is truly rare to have achieved such success at such a young age."
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, but he did not respond to Ling Fengzi's words.
Seeing this, Ling Fengzi continued, "This restriction in front of us is no ordinary restriction. Its power is far beyond what you and I can easily break."
"If we keep wearing each other down, in the end, I'm afraid none of us will be able to get in."
"Therefore, in my opinion, we should put aside our prejudices for the time being and cooperate to break the ban."
"Wouldn't it be better to wait until we're inside, then rely on our own abilities to seize any opportunities within?"
Upon hearing Ling Fengzi's suggestion, Qin Feng was taken aback, seemingly somewhat surprised.
However, he quickly regained his senses, and the smile on his face vanished instantly, replaced by a cold sneer.
"Cooperate with you?" Qin Feng's voice was full of disdain. "I'm sorry, I have absolutely no interest!"
Upon hearing Qin Feng's decisive refusal, Ling Xuan was instantly enraged. His eyes widened, and he roared, "Boy, do you know who this is? He is our Spirit Clan's Holy King! How dare you be so rude! You're courting death!"
Qin Feng remained unmoved. He looked at Ling Xuan with a half-smile and said sarcastically, "Oh? So he is the Holy King of your Spirit Clan."
"However, I am speaking to your Holy King now. What are you doing barking like a dog here?"
Upon hearing Qin Feng's words, Ling Xuan's face flushed red with anger. He glared at Qin Feng with wide eyes, his anger seemingly about to erupt.
He clenched his fists tightly, the veins on his arms bulging from the excessive force, as if he was about to rush up and fight Qin Feng at any moment.
However, just as Ling Xuan was about to erupt, Ling Fengzi suddenly raised his hand and stopped him.
Lingfengzi's movements were very light, but they contained an irresistible power.
Although Lingxuan was indignant, he was stopped by Lingfengzi's actions. He could only glare at Qin Feng, but could not take another step forward.
Ling Fengzi's expression remained calm as he looked at Qin Feng and slowly said, "Young friend, why be so resolute? Don't you know that sometimes rash decisions can lead to regrets?"
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable air of authority.
Qin Feng sneered and replied without backing down, "When I, Qin Feng, do something, I always mean it and I never regret it."
