As time slowly passed, Lin Feng’s entire body became enveloped in a faint crimson radiance.

The glow covered his body, forming what appeared to be a Dou Qi Cloak. However, this veil constantly twisted and fluctuated as if it were being shaped and tested.

Faintly, what was originally an illusory Dou Qi Cloak began exhibiting characteristics of something more tangible.

At this moment, Lin Feng was completely unaware of the changes occurring around him.

He maintained the utmost control over his mind, his full attention focused on the Dou Qi cyclone within his body, which was on the verge of overflowing.

Inside him, the cyclone spun slowly, filled with crimson liquid energy that surged and swayed like a dam on the brink of bursting. It seemed as though it could overflow from the cyclone, which had already reached its limit, at any moment.

The cyclone could no longer accommodate even the slightest bit of energy.

If more was forced in, it might rupture entirely.

Seeing this, Lin Feng hurriedly blocked the medicinal power of the Three Lines Green Spirit Pill from entering the cyclone.

He then exhaled a turbid breath, his hand seals shifting subtly.

Before a breakthrough, every Dou Shi instinctively made the correct decision—a process that had been proven successful by countless predecessors.

That step was compression!

Gaseous energy could be compressed into higher-grade liquid energy, and similarly, liquid energy could be further compressed into an even more advanced solid form.

This so-called solid energy was precisely the key behind a Da Dou Shi’s ability to manifest a seemingly tangible Dou Qi Armor.

”Shrink!”

As Lin Feng’s hand seals changed, he forcefully compressed the swollen cyclone.

For a brief moment, the cyclone fell into complete silence. Then, suddenly, its volume shrank significantly.

Immediately after, it began to violently rebound, but Lin Feng stubbornly held it down, refusing to let it expand back.

The stalemate continued for a long while until, finally, the Dou Qi cyclone could no longer resist and began shrinking once more.

As the compression persisted, it became increasingly difficult for Lin Feng to continue applying force, while the Dou Qi within the cyclone grew denser and more concentrated.

At last, traces of solidification started to appear.

Inside Lin Feng’s body, a race against time was underway.

The overflowing liquid energy within the cyclone had to be compressed into a solid state before the next surge of energy arrived.

Only by doing this could he prevent the cyclone from bursting apart.

As the compression continued, the liquid energy in the cyclone gradually diminished.

Then, suddenly, within Lin Feng’s focused consciousness, a small, thumb-sized crimson rhomboid crystal slowly took shape.

It hovered quietly at the cyclone’s center, radiating a flickering glow that revealed its fragile, newborn state.

At the exact moment this rhomboid crystal appeared, a sound like a barrier breaking echoed from within Lin Feng’s body.

Immediately afterward, an indescribable feeling of comfort spread from the depths of his soul.

This tiny crimson crystal was the crucial key to becoming a Da Dou Shi.

Among the strong, this crystal was commonly known as the Dou Crystal!

In the eyes of many experts, only after forming a Dou Crystal did one truly step into the grand halls of Dou Qi cultivation.

The Dou Crystal was the condensed essence of all Dou Qi within a person’s body.

Within it resided a terrifying amount of energy.

As Lin Feng’s Dou Crystal finished forming, a peculiar energy ripple spread outward, reaching the Dou Qi Cloak on the surface of his body.

Upon receiving this ripple, the twisting Dou Qi Cloak gradually stabilized.

Moments later, a dazzling crimson glow flashed, and the Dou Qi rapidly merged and condensed, fusing together completely.

Shortly after, the radiance dimmed slightly, and a crimson Dou Qi Armor, though still faint in shape, appeared on Lin Feng’s body.

Although this Dou Qi Armor was only in its early stages, the deep crimson glow it emitted and the faint yet immense energy fluctuations it radiated made it clear that it was far superior to the previous Dou Qi Cloak.

However, Lin Feng had no time to dwell on these changes.

His mind remained focused on observing the Dou Crystal within his Dou Qi cyclone.

Only after ensuring that this small crystal had fully stabilized did Lin Feng carefully guide the remaining three-colored energy liquid along the prescribed cultivation technique pathways.

Constantly refining the three-colored liquid and slowly feeding its pure energy into the Dou Crystal…

As this refining process continued, Lin Feng’s aura steadily grew stronger.

Before long, with a muffled ”boom” that echoed from within his body, he successfully broke through to become a Two-Star Da Dou Shi.

By now, the three-colored energy liquid within his body was nearly depleted.

But he paid no mind and continued refining the remaining liquid to further consolidate his realm.

Finally, when the last trace of three-colored energy liquid was refined, his Dou Qi cultivation was firmly stabilized at the Two-Star Da Dou Shi level.

Sensing the surging power within him, Lin Feng’s lips curled into a satisfied smile.

He slightly curled his palm, bending his fingers. A faint crimson glow flickered at his fingertips.

A moment later, he lightly flicked his finger.

With a sharp whoosh, the crimson Dou Qi shot forth like an arrow!

With a muffled boom, the force of the impact created a small crack in the cave wall.

”Dou Qi projection.”

Lin Feng grinned as he looked at the small shattered stones on the ground.

Upon reaching the Da Dou Shi level, Dou Qi could finally leave the body, no longer restricted within. This provided a huge advantage in battle.

Clenching his fists tightly, Lin Feng let Dou Qi slowly surge forth.

A crimson Dou Qi Armor gradually emerged on his body, slowly covering him completely.

Then, he activated the Purple Fire, allowing it to spread over the surface of his body and merge with the Dou Qi Armor.

Finally, the originally crimson Dou Qi Armor was entirely coated in purple, turning into a deep purple-red color.

Lin Feng could clearly feel that after the fusion of the Purple Fire and the Dou Qi Armor, its defensive power had increased significantly.

”A Two-Star Da Dou Shi, plus the Skyfire Three Mysterious Change—even if I encounter an ordinary peak Da Dou Shi, I can still fight them head-on.”

After familiarizing himself with the Dou Qi Armor for a while, Lin Feng dispersed it and made a mental note.

Taking out the two Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pills, he pondered for a moment before deciding not to consume them just yet. He planned to wait until his Dou Qi settled before using them.

After putting away the jade bottle again, Lin Feng suddenly noticed Xiao Cai beside him. He patted its small head and smiled.

”Did I wake you up while taking the pill?”

”Ying ying~”

Seeing that its master had finally acknowledged it, the little creature quickly patted its belly with its tail and opened its mouth wide.

”Hungry? Here, Fourth-Tier Fiery Pill.”

Lin Feng chuckled, flicking two red pills precisely into Xiao Cai’s mouth.

After swallowing the pills, the Heaven Swallowing Python flickered and swiftly returned to Lin Feng’s arm.

”This little guy…”

Feeling the small snake coiled around his arm, Lin Feng smiled faintly.

Without further delay, he leaped out of the cave and continued heading toward the distant black region.

After flying with Purple Cloud Wings for several hours, he noticed that the endless mountain range below gradually became less dense.

Lin Feng paused slightly before lifting his gaze.

At the very edge of his vision, he saw a pitch-black plain stretching across the horizon like an inky boundary, completely separating the outer world from the inner region.

”If I’m not mistaken, this should be the Great Plains of the Black Region.”

A smile appeared on his lips as he watched the black line growing larger in his sight.

According to the map, the Great Plains of the Black Region was the gateway to Black-Corner Region.

Once he stepped into this land, he would officially enter that chaotic world, completely different from the outside.

Thinking about how long he had been flying, Lin Feng realized that his Dou Qi had been significantly depleted.

Thus, he decided to recover his energy before entering the Great Plains of the Black Region.

Slowly descending into a mountain forest, he carefully scanned his surroundings.

After confirming that there were no human or beast presences, he finally relaxed.

Finding a concealed spot, he sat cross-legged.

Taking out a Qi Recovery Pill, he swallowed it and formed hand seals, closing his eyes.

As Lin Feng entered his cultivation state, faint energy fluctuations began radiating from his body.

A subtle yet strong suction force absorbed the surrounding energy, refining it before channeling it into his Dou Crystal, which had dimmed slightly due to energy consumption.

This silent cultivation lasted for nearly an entire afternoon.

The faint energy fluctuations around Lin Feng gradually weakened until they completely dissipated.

”Hu~”

Exhaling a deep breath of impure air, he opened his tightly shut eyes.

Feeling the renewed fullness of Dou Qi inside him, Lin Feng contemplated for a moment before deciding to abandon using the Ice Silk Mask.

At this point, anyone who couldn’t see through the disguise was not a threat to him.

As for those who could? They could identify him by his aura alone, making the mask pointless.

Moreover, the Ice Silk Mask could even be broken by a mere Dou Shi, so it was only useful for non-combat situations.

Having reached a decision, Lin Feng suddenly twisted his foot oddly, then stomped forcefully onto the ground.

A low voice escaped his lips.

”Explosive Step!”

As soon as the words fell, a crimson glow flickered beneath his feet.

With a powerful stomp, a muffled explosion resounded where his foot met the ground.

At the same time, his entire figure shot forward like a launched projectile!

His speed was as swift as an arrow loosed from a bow, making him almost impossible to follow with the naked eye.

With each heavy step on the ground, a deep explosion echoed.

Repeating this cycle, he rushed toward the Great Plains of the Black Region at full speed.
