Upon hearing this, the old turtle's eyes were filled with a mixture of relief and concern. He finally sighed softly and said, "Be careful in everything. May you return safely."
Li Chengfeng nodded solemnly in response, "No need to worry. It will be enough for me to lead my three thousand elite, heavily armored troops."
Long Tianqi's eyes shone brightly as he followed closely behind, stating firmly, "I am willing to follow you to the death, Master, and will not hesitate to face any peril."
Even if the enemy possesses a half-step God Transformation Realm expert, our three thousand warriors, forming a battle array, can still contend with them.
Moreover, we can advance and retreat freely, using the path of the Yin Soldiers to disappear, teleport instantaneously, and conceal ourselves within the dust of history, building an impregnable defense for you, Master."
Upon hearing this, the worries in everyone's hearts quietly dissipated, replaced by a complex mix of anxiety and confidence regarding Li Chengfeng's upcoming journey.
Knowing that the road ahead would be fraught with thorns, Li Chengfeng's perseverance and extraordinary wisdom shone like a beacon, illuminating everyone's hearts.
Although they were nervous for Li Chengfeng, recalling his past glorious achievements, a sense of conviction welled up within them—this time, the Gongsun family would likely suffer unprecedented and utter defeat.
Li Chengfeng's convocation of everyone this time was not merely to inform them of his personal movements, but to shoulder a far-reaching mission—to plan the future blueprint for the Extreme West.
He knew that even in his absence, the prosperity and development of this land could not be allowed to stagnate.
Therefore, Li Chengfeng meticulously devised an exquisite institutional framework, which brightened the eyes of all the influential figures present, who eagerly took up their pens to sign, witnessing the birth of a new era—the "Extreme West Cooperation Plan."
Once implemented, this plan would automatically take effect after Li Chengfeng's departure, serving as a sturdy bridge connecting every corner of the Extreme West.
Under the leadership of the old turtle, a think tank composed of thirteen elites was formed, who would take turns managing the Extreme West for five-year cycles, establishing an efficient and fair committee system.
The position of President will be temporarily held by Sima Jie, whose performance will be strictly reviewed by the Elders Council after five years, with merits and demerits determined accordingly. Whether or not he is re-elected will depend entirely on his ability.
The ingenious design of this system won the sincere admiration of all the influential figures, acting as a clear stream that laid a solid foundation for the long-term stability of the Extreme West.
In fact, this plan had been brewing for a long time. Li Chengfeng had read extensively, absorbing the wisdom of countless civilizations to create this masterpiece.
It not only ensured the short-term stability of the Extreme West but also foresaw the distant future. Even if Li Chengfeng were to be absent one day, that carefully arranged "scapegoat puppet" would silently protect and coordinate all parties, ensuring seamless cooperation.
As long as Li Chengfeng's will remained, the Extreme West would be as solid as a rock; even if the situation changed, this agreement would become its eternal guardian, allowing the glory of the Extreme West to continue for thousands of years, or even longer.
However, with the turbulent situation and the intertwining of internal and external troubles, the newly established Sea Alliance Territory appeared even more precarious within the Extreme West's territory.
After deploying all of this, Li Chengfeng stood up, cupped his hands, and paid deep respect to everyone. Then, with a flash, he disappeared from their sight, leaving behind a group of influential figures filled with emotion.
Li Chengfeng quickly made several preparations. Faced with so many powerful individuals, he deeply understood the importance of being fully prepared.
He began to deeply deduce the Sima family's "Inverted Universe" technique, an extraordinary skill. Upon obtaining it, he immediately entered his own Life Realm space and sat cross-legged beneath the Bodhi Tree.
On the Bodhi Tree, time flowed like water, and rays of light enveloped Li Chengfeng. Smiling, he took out the golden equipment I had given him and quickly cast the Time Law.
Beneath the Bodhi Tree, time seemed to be imbued with life. The tree's particles trembled slowly, and time twisted accordingly. One day outside was equivalent to ten days beneath the tree.
This was Li Chengfeng's first attempt to use the golden equipment to achieve an heaven-defying transformation of time and space. To master this golden equipment, he studied countless techniques and secrets, gaining a deep understanding of secrets such as "A Glance of Ten Thousand Years," and eventually created this Time Reversal method.
However, this method was limited to cultivation and had little effect in combat.
If Li Chengfeng allowed low-level disciples to cultivate here, they would greatly benefit, but this would consume a large number of spirit stones and the Bodhi Tree's vitality, which would be extravagant. If it weren't for Li Chengfeng himself, the Bodhi Tree probably wouldn't easily contribute its lifespan.
At this moment, Li Chengfeng was immersed in deep comprehension. He only had two days and had to deduce and cultivate the "Inverted Universe" technique within this limited time, integrating its runes into himself so that he could carefully study it in the future.
After all, "Inverted Universe" and "Star Shift" were completely different. The latter was merely a competition of speed, while the former could subvert laws and order. The two were not on the same level.
Li Chengfeng's heart surged, anticipating that this technique would open a door to unprecedented power for him.
He was not only immersed in his own cultivation but also unexpectedly discovered Sima Youran's misconceptions in cultivation.
It turned out that the essence of the Inverted Universe technique lay in breaking conventions and doing as one pleased, but Sima Youran was confined to formalities, which led to stagnation in his cultivation and even made a potentially limitless technique lose its luster.
Li Chengfeng knew that true breakthroughs lay in innovation and freedom. So he began a comprehensive comprehension mode, his body seeming to transform into countless runes in the vast universe, each rune performing precise deductions and attempts.
This was his unique "Nirvana of Myriad Laws" cultivation method, like an endless cycle, where each rune was a symbol of vitality. As long as there was a trace remaining, it could be reborn endlessly, even in the face of destruction by ancient powerhouses, it could slowly recover and reappear in glory over time.
And Li Chengfeng's "Crouching Dao" was a wisdom and strategy that transcended the secular world.
He neither hid nor feared, relying on speed and the ability to be reborn, so that enemies could never truly grasp his whereabouts and life or death.
This unique cultivation trajectory allowed him to go further and further on the path of cultivation until he deduced the Inverted Universe technique to the extreme.
After twenty days of closed-door cultivation, Li Chengfeng finally ushered in the moment of breakthrough.
A mysterious Dao rhythm flowed through his body, and he seemed to become the master of this small world, with everything under his control.
As all the runes returned to their places, he returned to his original appearance, but the light in his eyes was even more profound, because he had mastered the true meaning of Inverted Universe.
A confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Li Chengfeng had a plan in mind.
He knew the Gongsun family's current predicament and needs, and decided to use this as an opportunity to launch a contest of wisdom and power.
So, he quickly left seclusion, tidied up his appearance, and entered the main hall, waiting for Gongsun Liufei's arrival.
Soon, Gongsun Liufei led ten Nascent Soul cultivators into the hall, cupped his hands, and said with a smiling face, "Our Gongsun family's patriarch has agreed to cooperate with you and hand over our Gongsun family's Yin-Yang Heavenly Curtain technique.
However, President Li must help us solve the drawbacks of the formation restriction. Only then can we hand over the technique to you, after all, this is of great importance?"
