Just then, Chen Feng felt like his soul was being pulled into the sky by an invisible force.

At this moment, two figures were following closely behind Chen Feng. They stuck closely to Chen Feng’s body and caused him to feel dazed. He did not know what was going on.

He felt like he had been pulled into another space by this force. This space was different from the world that Chen Feng had been in. There was no sunlight or clouds in this world. It was filled with endless darkness.

There was a huge star in the middle of the night sky. There were circles of pale blue light flickering around the star, and there were thousands of towering mountains around the star. All of them shone with dazzling red light.

There was a corpse of an ancient beast on every peak. There were steles that were the size of water vats on the corpses of the ancient beasts. The steles seemed to contain the soul of the ancient beasts, which were roaring at Chen Feng.

Just then, Chen Feng felt immense pressure from above his head. He could not help but raise his head. He caught sight of a figure slowly descending from the star. The figure belonged to a man.

The mysterious man slowly landed on a giant peak. He stood on the peak and looked at Chen Feng below.

He could not see the mysterious man’s face clearly, but it was obvious that he had a handsome face.

Suddenly, a voice rang out in Chen Feng’s ears. “Are you Chen Feng?” The mysterious man asked expressionlessly.

Chen Feng’s heart skipped a beat after hearing his emotionless voice. He wondered how this mysterious man knew his name. However, he did not express his emotions. He said calmly,”I am Chen Feng. Who are you?”

“My identity isn’t important. What’s important is that you should know the situation that you’re currently in!” the mysterious man said calmly.

“My situation?” Chen Feng was slightly stunned. What did he mean by his situation?

Was he in danger after touching the Soul Suppressing Stele and entering this place?!

“It seems like you don’t understand.” The mysterious man pointed at the blood-red mountains near the star and said, “This is the Soul Suppressing Stele. The space that we are in is the Soul Prison Space.”

“Look at these mountains. Each of them is suppressing an ancient ferocious beast. Each of these beasts is terribly vicious.”

“The souls of some of the ancient ferocious beasts are yet to be destroyed even though their bodies have dissipated. They still want to escape from the restraints, break out of the stele, and bring chaos to the world.”

“Look at the flames on the Eternal Star. It’s the True Fire of the Fire Phoenix that was used to kill ancient ferocious beasts in the past. Once the True Fire of the Fire Phoenix is used up, the ancient ferocious beasts restrained in this place will be able to escape!”

“Meanwhile, you are the new owner of the Soul Suppressing Stele. When the ancient ferocious beasts escape, you will be the first one to die!”

The mysterious man fixed a purposeful gaze upon Chen Feng.

“Hmm? I am the new master of the Soul Suppressing Stele, and I’ll be the first one to die after these ancient ferocious beasts escape?” Chen Feng’s expression darkened when he heard what he said.

Initially, he thought that this would be an opportunity, but he did not expect himself to become the master of the Soul Suppressing Stele just like that.

That was nothing much.

However, most importantly, he was now facing the danger of death!

This…

This cannot be!

The mysterious man pointed at a few mountain peaks in the distance and said, “That’s the Heaven Raising Divine Roc. The Soul Suppressing Stele suppressing it will be broken down in about 70 years!”

“Look, that’s the Sky-Bearing Dragon Glass Eagle. The stele suppressing it will shatter in about 30 years!”

Chen Feng’s face darkened as he said, “70 years! 30 years! …Does that mean that I don’t have many years left ahead of me?”

The mysterious man said calmly, “Indeed, you only have 20 years to change your fate!”

“Change my fate?” Chen Feng listened to his words carefully.

The mysterious man smiled faintly and said, “That’s right, you need to change your fate! You have cultivated the [Red Sun Nine Heavens Painting]. As long as you condense a sliver of the Sun’s True Fire in your body, you can expand your powers and fuse it into the True Fire of the Fire Phoenix in the Soul Prison Space. You can then refine these ancient ferocious beasts instead of dying. Of course, you can also make them submit to you!”

“However, back when every single one of these ancient beasts was alive, their mere existences made countless people tremble in fear. It was difficult to make them submit to anyone!”

“Therefore, there is only one path ahead for you, and that is to keep growing stronger. Refine the ancient ferocious beasts…and gain complete control over the Soul Prison Space. Only then will you be safe!”

After listening to the mysterious man’s words, Chen Feng could not help but take a gulp.

Refine an ancient ferocious beast? That sounded like a fantasy, but it had become Chen Feng’s only path forward!

“Are you afraid now?” The mysterious man teased.

“Afraid? What’s the use of being afraid? Since that’s the case, I’ll work hard to become stronger. However, my strength…” Chen Feng looked at the mysterious man.

“I wonder if you can lend me a hand.” He knew that the mysterious man would not leave him to die since he had already told him so much.

“Help you? If I could help you, I wouldn’t have told you so many things! However, I can show you a way out!” the mysterious man said calmly.

Chen Feng listened carefully.

The mysterious man said, “Do you see that mountain? The soul spirit of the ancient ferocious beast that was suppressed there has already been obliterated. However, there’s still a remnant of its soul. As long as you manage to gain control over the True Fire of the Fire Phoenix, you can completely obliterate the remnants of its soul. You can also obtain some of the skill imprint that it had while it was alive…”

After hearing that, Chen Feng’s eyes lit up. “You can do that?”

How powerful would the skill imprint of such a god-like existence be? It should be an SSS-rank skill at the very least! That was a huge treasure trove!

After the gamification of the world, not many people possessed SSS-rank skills. Countless people have died in dungeons and mystic realms to obtain a skill of this rank!

Nevertheless, there were countless ancient ferocious beasts that he could potentially refine before him?

This was a huge opportunity!

This made Chen Feng’s eyes glow with a fiery light.

It did not sound too bad to become the master of the Soul Suppressing Stele!

The mysterious man said calmly, “That’s right. Each time you refine an ancient beast, you will be able to obtain the skill imprint in the remnants of their souls…”

“In that case, can I refine it now?” Chen Feng asked excitedly.

“Given your current level of the [Red Sun Nine Heavens Painting]...I’m afraid that…Hmm, you should just give it a try!” The mysterious man said after pondering upon it for a while.

“Alright, Senior, what should I do?” Chen Feng asked.

“Fuse your mental power with the star and control the True Fire of the Fire Phoenix. That is the core existence of the Soul Suppressing Stele. After that, you will be able to refine an ancient ferocious beast. However, if you are not strong enough, you will suffer an instant backlash. At best, your soul will be severely injured.. In the worst-case scenario, your soul will be obliterated!” The mysterious man said in a casual tone.
