People must have something to care about.

Once there were no worries left, Chu Feng could hardly imagine what James would do next.

"Don't think too much, you haven't awakened yet!"

Patting the other person's shoulder, Chu Feng didn't delay any further and took the two of them as a streak of rainbow light towards New York.

A few minutes after they left, a faint mist of unknown origins drifted slowly from a distance. After circling the ruins of the Temple once, a cold hum suddenly emanated from the mist.

"Indeed, a useless thing, even with the help of the 'Land of Oblivion' you died so quickly, such a waste of the Demon God's grace!"

Accompanied by a roar, the ruins of the Temple suddenly sank several meters, and the white mist disappeared without a trace.

「...」

After sending James and his daughter home, Chu Feng took out his phone and frowned at the dozens of missed calls.

It seems you've made quite a stir over here!

He listened to the extremely faint sounds of life from the one held by his Soul Refining Technique and shook his head slightly.

This thing can really take a beating! But not for much longer.

He could feel that this Bizarre life form was now at its limit.

After notifying Lin Qiu and the others that he was safe, a system prompt that Chu Feng had been waiting for finally appeared in his mind.

"DING! Congratulations, host, for slaying a devil (Low Rank). You will receive the following rewards:

1. System Points: One thousand

2. Divine Origin Substance: Fifteen points

3. Special Item: 'True Sun Blazing Fire Formation'"

With the one thousand System Points awarded by the system, Chu Feng's savings successfully broke ten thousand.

And the amount of Divine Origin Substance had reached twenty-five points, nearing the exchange requirement for the Golden Spirit Jade Liquid.

Chu Feng temporarily had no use for the first two rewards, so he added them to the system panel without giving them much thought. His attention was now on the last system reward.

'True Sun Blazing Fire Formation'? Seems like an offensive Formation...

Chu Feng had been wondering whether the system would continue to award items such as Cultivation Techniques after advancing. It seemed he had indeed been overthinking it.

The exquisitely floating Array Plate in his mind was flickering with a faint red light. Although he hadn't touched it, he could already faintly sense a burning intent.

Just what I needed!

He was in need of a method to quickly acquire System Points! In the not too distant future, once his Spirit Root had fully matured, he would definitely want to find a place to break through to the Golden Core Stage as soon as possible. He didn't know how long he would need to stay in the chargeable Meditation Room. But it was certain that the more System Points he had, the better!

Just as Chu Feng was about to experience the mysteries of being an Array Master, a sudden thought stopped him. His eyes glanced at the street below, and he realized he was still on the rooftop of a building.

I almost forgot!

He shook his head and smiled, and in an instant, a rainbow light streaked across the sky. In the blink of an eye, Chu Feng had appeared in his villa.

Sitting cross-legged in the Meditation Room of the villa, Chu Feng's thoughts gently touched the Array Plate in his mind.

Now, it's time!

The next second, the Array Plate shattered suddenly, and countless tadpole-like characters circled in mid-air before rushing back into Chu Feng's mind.

"This..."

Looking at the unchanged scene before him and the dense text in his mind, he instinctively held his breath.

"HISS..."

A few seconds later, a sharp intake of breath suddenly arose in the Meditation Room.

"System, are you suggesting that I cultivate on my own?"

Before the system could respond, countless familiar scenes flashed rapidly through his mind. All of them were memories from his time cultivating in the Qingxuan Sacred Land. However, because of the system's obstruction, the majority of them were still vague and unclear.

Just as Chu Feng was lost in thought, it was as if a layer of misty veil had been lifted. Memories related to learning Arrays suddenly became clear. Formation Patterns, Formation Bases, Formation Nodes, the core... One by one, basic knowledge about Formations surged crazily into Chu Feng's memory.

Unfortunately, aside from the basic points, nothing else was present. The various Arrays he had learned in another world were still a blur.

"System, can't you just unlock all these memories of mine? They belong to me!"

The fuzziness within his memories deeply agitated Chu Feng. They were right before his eyes, yet out of reach—a true test of his patience.

It was a question born out of frustration, but to his surprise, this time the system actually provided a response.

"DING! Once the system panel is upgraded to Third Rank, all host memories will be unlocked! Please endeavor to enhance your strength, host!"

Third Rank? Chu Feng frowned at the system prompt in his mind.

"What level of strength must I reach to upgrade the system panel to Third Rank?"

"The Cultivation System determines that the host needs to advance to the Nascent Soul Stage!"

Seeing the answer just provided by the system in his mind, Chu Feng inhaled sharply.

"Nascent Soul Stage? System, do you even know what you're talking about?"

"In the world of Immortal Cultivation, it took me a full hundred years to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage! In this world..." Chu Feng furrowed his brows deeply. "You might as well say it's impossible to unlock!"

The system offered no response to his complaints and reverted to its previous silent mode.

"..."

After waiting a while and seeing no reaction from the system, Chu Feng shook his head slightly in disappointment.

It's too rigid!

With his exploration coming to nothing, he didn't waste any more time and immediately turned his attention back to the "True Sun Blazing Fire Formation".

Armed with the basic knowledge of Formations and memories of past research, the dense text in his mind finally stopped looking like an indecipherable script!

To set up this Formation as soon as possible, Chu Feng completely immersed himself in the mysteries of the words in his mind for the following period.

「...」

「One month later.」

Inside the newly renovated building of the New York Exorcism Agency.

Seeing the man with greying hair and sunken eyes before him, Taran asked with some disbelief, "Hey, James?!"

"Hi, Manager Taran, long time no see!" James turned his head, and upon seeing the figure calling out to him, a reluctant smile forced its way onto his indifferent face.

Taran, who had already learned from Chu Feng what had befallen James, also wore a heavy expression. "Sorry... James, I know there isn't much I can say to ease your pain, but I want you to know that everyone is really concerned about you!"

Passersby in the corridor, upon seeing James, gathered around, their faces showing sympathy.

Looking around at his colleagues' concerned faces, James managed to pull his lips into a strained, awkward smile. "Thank you, everyone! I will try to pull through this as quickly as I can!"

With a slight nod of his head, he immediately turned and entered the elevator, not wanting others to see his vulnerable side.

Watching the man's drastically changed aura as he walked away, the people behind him all issued a collective sigh.
