"A Transcendent!"

Seeing Lin Feng admit it himself, Perfected Lord Empyrean's nonchalant expression could not help but reveal a trace of shock. Previously, his guess was just a guess, but now that Lin Feng had admitted it himself, it was different.

"So you're indeed a Transcendent. Previously, when I heard that Perfected Lord Lin could fight the Giant King as a Perfected Person, I couldn't quite believe it. After all, I know very well how strong the Giant King is. Back then, I had fought the Giant King, but we were just evenly matched. How can a Chaotic lifeform fight the Giant King, and still be evenly matched?

"But now, I believe it. Transcendents are cultivators who constantly create miracles in the first place."

Perfected Lord Empyrean shook his head, and admiration and curiosity appeared in his eyes. Even though he was exceptionally knowledgeable and had heard of Transcendents before, this was the first time he had actually met a Transcendent.

In particular, with Lin Feng's glorious battle record, it further confirmed how extraordinary Transcendents were.

Lin Feng also slowly calmed down, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. The Transcendents mentioned by Perfected Lord Empyrean seemed to be completely different from Lin Feng, who had transformed into a universe.

Back when Lin Feng was in the Origin Universe, he already knew that there were orthodox Transcendents, who had the power to contend with the entire universe. Only by tearing the universe apart could they transcend. Lin Feng did not want to destroy the universe. Hence, he transformed into a universe and used the power of his own universe to resist the entire universe, thereby transcending.

These were two different transcendence techniques.

But now, Lin Feng realized that it seemed like Perfected Lord Empyrean only knew about one type of Transcendents. Did Perfected Lord Empyrean not know, or did they not exist at all?

"Perfected Lord Empyrean, are there any Transcendents on the Hallowed Beast Continent?" Lin Feng asked curiously.

If there were Transcendents, he could visit them. Perhaps he could learn about Transcendents who had transformed into the universe.

However, Perfected Lord Empyrean shook his head and said, "How rare are Transcendents? There has never been a Transcendent on the Hallowed Beast Continent. I only heard of them by chance when I was traveling the Chaos back then."

"Nothing?"

Lin Feng shook his head.

Then, he asked about the holy cities. Perfected Lord Empyrean did not know the exact location of the holy cities either. Back then, he had also entered the depths of the Chaos to search for the holy cities of Chaos, but he had not found them either.

He had to wait for the Chaotic merchants.

"By the way, Perfected Lord Empyrean, you didn't leave with the Chaotic merchants the last time they came?"

Perfected Lord Empyrean smiled weakly and said, "The last time, the Chaotic merchants did come. At that time, I had yet to cultivate a perfected spirit. I did not even get to meet the Chaotic merchants."

The last time the Chaotic merchants arrived was too long ago, so long that even Perfected Lord Empyrean had not cultivated a perfected spirit back then. Hence, Perfected Lord Empyrean was actually also waiting. The reason he did not continue to venture into the depths of the Chaos after cultivating a perfected spirit was that he was waiting for the arrival of the Chaotic merchants.

Moreover, there were many Perfected Lords on the Hallowed Beast Continent who had similar thoughts as Perfected Lord Empyrean.

The Chaos was simply too huge and vast. Even Perfected Lords would not encounter much danger in the Chaos, and could roam freely.

However, the Chaos was too huge. Even if one roamed the Chaos for billions of years, they would only see a corner of the Chaos. Finding the holy cities of Chaos was almost a fool's dream.

Hence, by staying in the Hallowed Beast Continent, there was at least a chance. Once the Chaotic merchants arrived, these Chaotic Perfected Lords would have a chance to leave. Even if such an opportunity only came once in a billion years, many Perfected Lords were willing to wait.

Lin Feng asked Perfected Lord Empyrean for guidance on some cultivation matters, especially regarding perfected spirits. Lin Feng had already learned a lot. Finally, he was no longer half-informed and had a relatively direct understanding.

Just as Lin Feng was about to bid farewell, Perfected Lord Empyrean suddenly said, "Perfected Lord Lin, Perfected Person Canglong looked for you previously, right?"

Lin Feng was slightly stunned, but he still nodded and said, "That's right. Perfected Person Canglong came to me regarding a major operation. Unfortunately, it was canceled at the last moment."

Perfected Lord Empyrean also seemed a little helpless. "Actually, there was indeed a major operation last time. It was jointly formulated by me and the other three Perfected Lords. The surrounding environment of the Empyrean City is worsening. Every time cultivators go out, they would suffer heavy losses. Hence, many cultivators are also becoming more and more unwilling to leave Empyrean City to fight those Chaotic dire beasts outside the city. This is not a good thing. In the long term, Empyrean City will probably lose its vitality and be in imminent danger.

"Therefore, I formulated a plan with the other three Perfected Lords to prepare for a major operation to expel the four Chaotic dire beast races and expand Empyrean City. Moreover, Perfected Lord Lin had already made a name for himself at that time, and practically had the power of the strongest person below Perfected Lords. Our chances of winning were very high. Unfortunately, Perfected Lord Prime Shadow left for some special reason at the last moment. There were only the three Perfected Lords in our Empyrean City. Naturally, that operation was canceled.

"However, now that Perfected Lord Lin has risen to power, our Empyrean City has four Perfected Lords again. It's not impossible to fight them. If Perfected Lord Lin is willing, we can restart the plan."

Lin Feng thought of Perfected Person Canglong, and also of the increasingly harsh environment in Empyrean City. He had benefited a lot in Empyrean City. If it was his turn to contribute, he absolutely would back down.

"If I have to deal with a Chaotic spirit beast, as long as it's not an entity stronger than the Giant King, I should be able to deal with it."

Lin Feng also expressed his stand.

"Haha, Perfected Lord Lin, don't worry. There are only four Chaotic spirit beasts among the four Chaotic races. As for the Giant King, even among the four Chaotic spirit beasts, it's one of the strongest entities. If you can contend with the Giant King, and even the Giant King can't do anything to you, it naturally won't be a problem for you to deal with other Chaotic spirit beasts."

A smile also appeared on Perfected Lord Empyrean's face.

Lin Feng nodded and said, "In that case, I'm assured. Perfected Lord Empyrean, if you need anything, you can inform me at any time."

"All right, I'll inform Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit and Perfected Lord Sword Wielder. When we discuss the specific matters, I'll inform Perfected Lord Lin to discuss them together."

Perfected Lord Empyrean City appeared very happy. He had single-handedly established Empyrean City. He did not want to see Empyrean City decline day by day either. How could he not be happy now that he had the chance to revive Empyrean City?

Lin Feng had also achieved his goal this time. He bade farewell to Perfected Lord Empyrean and turned to leave Perfected Lord Empyrean's residence.

…

"A Transcendent!"

Lin Feng returned to the quiet room, but frowned again.

During this visit to Perfected Lord Empyrean, he did learn what a perfected spirit was, and what the Perfected Lord realm was. However, the doubts in his heart grew even greater.

He was a Transcendent who had transformed into a universe. He was completely different from ordinary Transcendents. His foundation was the internal universe.

If he cultivated a perfected spirit and died one day, even if his perfected spirit was still around, how could he transform into a universe?

Moreover, Lin Feng had a vague feeling that his internal universe was no small matter. Otherwise, how could he contend with Chaotic spirit beasts at the Chaotic Perfected Person realm?

It had to be known that he could resist the Giant King entirely by relying on the cosmic power in his body.

Hence, Lin Feng also understood his advantage better. He could cultivate the perfected spirit, but the internal universe was the foundation. No matter what, he must defend the internal universe from being destroyed.

Since he had made his decision, Lin Feng completely opened up his mentality.

His internal universe should not affect his cultivation of the perfected spirit. However, while the perfected spirit was important, so was the internal universe.

Apart from organizing his internal universe and thinking of ways to expand it, Lin Feng was mostly searching for an opportunity to combine the seven Chaotic Holes. The moment the seven Chaotic Holes were combined would be the moment he cultivated a perfected spirit.

Lin Feng even had a vague feeling that the sixth form was already brewing in his mind when he used the five forms of the Heaven and Earth Seal without restraint back then. However, he kept feeling that something was missing.

It was probably because Lin Feng had not cultivated the perfected spirit. Once he did, Lin Feng had a feeling that the sixth form of the Heaven and Earth Seal, which he had always wanted to deduce, would come to him naturally.

After all, the sixth form of the Heaven and Earth Seal was a true perfected spirit martial art!

More than ten days went by. Lin Feng had been adjusting his mentality to its optimal state, because only then could he better find an opportunity.

"Perfected Lord, Perfected Lord Empyrean invites you to go over!"

Lu Ba came outside the quiet room and reported respectfully.

"They're here?"

Lin Feng opened his eyes. He knew that the "major operation" that Perfected Lord Empyrean had mentioned previously was most likely close. This trip was probably to discuss the exact time and some details of the operation.

"That's just as well. I can also communicate with Perfected Lord Sword Wielder and Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit. Perhaps I can find an opportunity to undergo metamorphosis."

Lin Feng stood up and left the quiet room. He rushed towards Perfected Lord Empyrean's residence with only Ao.
