The massive army set off toward the fifth star.
But this time, Chu Feng did not have the Spirit Clan drive the warship. Instead, he had the Clan Chief of the Huangfu Heavenly Clan do it.
This was because Chu Feng had given the Spirit Clan a rather important task — to set up a reliable, powerful teleportation formation that could teleport everyone to a location beyond a certain distance.
The reason for this was that Chu Feng could not only sense the position of the fifth star — he could also sense that it was entirely different from the first four.
For the first four stars, only a failed inheritance trial posed a mortal danger.
But the fifth star itself harbored dangers — dangers unrelated to the inheritance trial.
What made this most troublesome was that even from a great distance, Chu Feng could feel this danger, yet he could not determine exactly what kind of danger it was.
"Chu Feng, could it be that the further the stars are, the more difficult the inheritance trials become?"
After learning what Chu Feng had said, Huangfu Shengyu asked him with a worried expression.
"Mm, that seems to be the case so far."
"And the danger of this fifth star isn't limited to just the inheritance trial."
"However, danger and opportunity coexist. The greater the difficulty, the greater the rewards one can obtain," Chu Feng said with a smile.
But after Chu Feng said these words, the worry on Huangfu Shengyu's face only deepened.
"Brother Shengyu, don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"The inheritance trial here can be handled by Song Yun," Chu Feng said.
"Song Yun?" Upon hearing this, Huangfu Shengyu turned to look at Song Yun: "You… you really intend to have this young lady take on the fifth star's trial?"
Although Song Yun had offered to help Chu Feng from the moment she arrived, Huangfu Shengyu had not taken it seriously.
After all, he had never heard of Song Yun before. And since Song Yun was concealing her cultivation, he instinctively felt that she was far inferior to him.
He had always assumed that the inheritance task for the next star would fall to him.
That was precisely why he was so nervous.
Because he had already witnessed the severity of the star's inheritance trial, and he simply did not have the confidence.
"Don't worry, she's actually quite strong," Chu Feng said, then turned to Song Yun. "Right?"
"Not that strong, but whatever Brother Chu Feng entrusts me with, I'll definitely see it through," Song Yun said with a beaming smile.
But soon, Chu Feng's expression shifted slightly.
"What's wrong, big brother?" Little Fishie noticed the change in his expression and couldn't help but ask.
At the same time, everyone else also looked at Chu Feng with tension.
Chu Feng would not change his expression for no reason. He must have sensed something.
And what Chu Feng had sensed most likely had to do with the Primordial Tomb, which naturally concerned them all.
"Someone has begun to take on the fifth star's inheritance trial," Chu Feng said.
"What?" Upon hearing this, everyone tensed to varying degrees.
"Young friend Chu Feng, should we increase our speed? If so, my clan can accelerate using our bloodline," the Clan Chief of the Huangfu Heavenly Clan said.
"There's no need. The inheritance trial of this fifth star isn't that simple. He won't be able to complete it in a short time."
"Our current pace of travel is more than sufficient."
Chu Feng was well aware that accelerating through bloodline power came at a cost.
Paying a cost wasn't impossible, but it depended on the situation. The current situation did not call for it.
Meanwhile, Eggy's voice echoed in Chu Feng's ear: "Chu Feng, I wonder which acquaintance it will be this time? Why don't you take a guess?"
Unlike the others, Eggy was not the slightest bit nervous. Instead, she was somewhat eager to find out who was currently tackling the fifth star's inheritance trial.
"How can you be so sure it's an acquaintance?"
"Maybe it was just a coincidence last time," Chu Feng said.
