Chapter 2024: Divine Weapon Possession Talisman, The Tide Turns
Chapter 2024: Chapter 2024: Divine Weapon Possession Talisman, The Tide Turns
Ye Feng looked at the rune in front of him, habitually activating the Eye of Insight to read its information.
[Name: Divine Weapon Possession Talisman]
[Grade: Heavenly Dao Level]
[Description: This is a one-time-use rune that can be used to possess any divine weapon below the Heavenly Venerable level. Once used, it allows the user to quickly complete the possession and forcibly gain the right to use the possessed divine weapon.]
[Note: Possession-type rune]
When he saw this, Ye Feng couldn’t help but feel ecstatic.
Divine Weapon Possession Talisman!
If there’s no problem with the description, then once this item is used, it can possess the powerful Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array, directly granting possession rights to this sword array.
In that case, the battle will directly reverse!
This is exceptionally good news.
"But, now is not the time." Ye Feng was currently undergoing a tribulation, making it unsuitable to use the Divine Weapon Possession Talisman.
Rumble!
Outside, the thunder raged more violently with each wave, resembling billions of massive waves crashing down, pressing Ye Feng’s figure into a slight stoop, which was rather moving.
"Alliance Master Ye Feng is so great."
"Yeah, to resurrect us, he’s enduring such terrifying Punishment Divine Thunder, even his silhouette is hunched from the pressure of the thunder, my heart really aches for him."
"This is a role model for us cultivators."
The cosmic warriors continuously retreated, standing together with the Master of Demon Spirits, Meteor God King, and others, not daring to approach the area devoured by the Punishment Divine Thunder.
They did not know one thing.
Ye Feng wasn’t being bent by the Punishment Divine Thunder, but was bending over with laughter due to having obtained the Divine Weapon Possession Talisman, not feeling any pain at all.
"Hahaha..."
Ye Feng chuckled, calming himself, continually resisting the Punishment Divine Thunder, allowing the Primordial Sword Embryo to absorb the excess thunder, storing immense energy internally.
Once unleashed, it would be extremely terrifying.
In the distant void.
Emperor Dragon Sovereign was howling, being repeatedly slashed by the four swords of the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array. Even though wearing a Golden Dragon Scale Armor, he was almost unable to withstand it.
"Ye Feng, aren’t you coming to save me yet?"
Emperor Dragon Sovereign lamented.
Clang!
As two Human-refined Swords crossed and cut, Emperor Dragon Sovereign seemed to be clipped by a giant pair of scissors, his chest severely caved in, vomiting blood profusely.
"What a terrifying sword array!"
"It feels like I’m facing the siege of four Quasi-Heavenly Venerables, and their powers perfectly merge together, gaining increase in strength from the sword array, becoming even stronger."
"Even I, cannot withstand it."
Emperor Dragon Sovereign’s face was gloomy.
If the Ancestor of Demons had testified as a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, with several dozen times the battle power of an ordinary Invincible Supreme, he could have held against the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array.
But, Emperor Dragon Sovereign couldn’t hold it!
He felt that his battle power would need to be at least twenty times that of an ordinary Invincible Supreme to turn the tides.
As for now, he could barely ensure his own survival.
"Ye Feng, you have to hold on! Once you survive the Punishment Divine Thunder, you should be able to rescue me. After all, you are the most resourceful person in the universe."
Emperor Dragon Sovereign struggled to defend.
At the same time, he placed his trust in Ye Feng.
No matter the circumstance, whether it’s tailwind or headwind, as long as Ye Feng is there, it will be thrilling yet without danger.
On the distant beach.
Four Quasi-Heavenly Venerables stood side by side, backed by two to three hundred Half-Step Heavenly Venerables and armies of countless Immortal Emperors, all watching fiercely. Once Ye Feng’s Punishment Divine Thunder tribulation passes, they plan to attack again.
For now, it wasn’t suitable to take action.
After all, Ye Feng wasn’t dead yet. If pushed, he might charge into the crowd with the thunder, and all those who actively intervened would face disaster.
"Kill!"
Suddenly, from within the Punishment Divine Thunder, a thunderous roar from Ye Feng was heard. In the next moment, all the thunder vanished, clearly indicating Ye Feng had endured the tribulation.
"Good heavens, he’s still alive?"
"His luck is incredibly tenacious!"
"Absolutely terrifying!"
Triangular Venerable, Silver Eyebrow Venerable, Venerable Hong Mei, and Thunderclap Venerable watched Ye Feng emerge from the swirling dust and were all dumbfounded.
The Punishment Divine Thunder was extremely terrifying.
Even enveloped by it, a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable would be annihilated.
But Ye Feng came through unscathed, astonishing beyond their comprehension and hard to believe.
"You’re dead for sure!"
Upon appearing, Ye Feng drew out the Primordial Sword Embryo, pointing the tip of the blade directly at Silver Eyebrow Venerable and others on the beach.
"What a joke, were you struck dumb by lightning?"
Silver Eyebrow Venerable reprimanded.
"No, I’m quite clear-headed. It’s you who will be dumbfounded soon." Ye Feng grinned, his left hand behind his back, with his fingertips clutching a special rune.
"Oh, what’s that?"
The Master of Demon Spirits and other cosmic strongmen standing far behind Ye Feng and the others all saw the rune appearing out of thin air and were curious.
"Ye Feng, stop wasting time with them and rescue me first!" Emperor Dragon Sovereign shouted.
Pop!
Ye Feng didn’t speak, he directly crushed the Divine Weapon Possession Talisman between his fingertips, activating it, then released endless light and heat, engulfing the entire Outer Domain Battlefield.
"Not good, quickly hide!"
Those on the beach, including Silver Eyebrow Venerable and others, thought this was Ye Feng’s ploy against them, decisively retreating to the edge of the light screen, ready to escape at any moment.
Yet, they didn’t feel any discomfort.
Once they regained their senses, all the light and heat had transformed into four golden chains, each binding one of the four swords in the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array, locking them in the void.
"Haha, I’m out!"
Emperor Dragon Sovereign found that the shield formed by the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array had dissipated automatically, and he quickly flashed out of the sword array’s range, standing beside Ye Feng.
"I knew you had a way!"
Emperor Dragon Sovereign looked at Ye Feng with a complex gaze full of gratitude, admiration, and awe.
"How is this possible?!"
Venerable Hong Mei, standing on the sea, calculated with her fingers and found that her control over the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array was gradually disappearing, causing her expression to turn fearful as she anticipated something ominous.
"Senior brother, what happened? How did even the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array get broken by Ye Feng?"
Silver Eyebrow Venerable asked, frowning.
Triangular Venerable and Thunderclap Venerable also looked at Venerable Hong Mei, eager to know what happened.
Venerable Hong Mei’s face was gloomy: "Not only was the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array broken, but I’m also gradually losing control over this sword array, the situation is dire."
Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions turned horrified.
Could Ye Feng forcibly gain control of the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array? If true, they would certainly be counter-killed by the array under Ye Feng’s control!
"Escape!"
Venerable Hong Mei and others sensed danger and turned to pass through the light screen, fleeing desperately.
"You won’t escape!"
However, Ye Feng had already gripped the Primordial Sword Embryo in hand, instantly unleashing the stored violent energy within, striking fiercely towards the far sky.
Slash!
A terrifying sharp sword light formed by endless lightning was slashed out in an instant, beyond everyone’s reaction limits, and due to Thunderclap Venerable’s practice of thunder-type laws, the sword qi coincidentally struck his forehead.
"Why... why me?"
Thunderclap Venerable stared straight ahead, feeling his body split by this terrifying sword qi, his divine soul in the sea of consciousness collapsed and soon dissipated.
Thunderclap Venerable, fallen!
"Hiss!"
Silver Eyebrow Venerable, Venerable Hong Mei, and Triangular Venerable were all stunned, not expecting Ye Feng’s sword qi to be so terrifying, capable of instantly killing Thunderclap Venerable.
Boom!
With Thunderclap Venerable’s death, he exploded directly, the terrifying shockwave sweeping the surroundings, blasting Silver Eyebrow Venerable and others against the sea, spitting blood.
"Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array, extinguish!"
At this moment, Ye Feng completely controlled the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array, forming his finger into a sword and pointing at Silver Eyebrow Venerable and others on the sea, quickly stabbing the longsword.
Slash!
Despite trying their utmost to evade, Silver Eyebrow Venerable’s other arm was still cut off at the root, and from then on, both arms were gone, fleeing toward the outside in despair.
"Ye Feng, mark my words!"
Silver Eyebrow Venerable shouted, leaving behind harsh words before being struck on the rear by another sword, causing a large pool of blood to burst.
Meanwhile.
Triangular Venerable and Venerable Hong Mei’s circumstances weren’t much better, both losing an arm; without the escape technique bestowed by the Heavenly Venerable, they might have been killed by the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array, but they eventually escaped.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Ye Feng, holding the Primordial Sword Embryo, continuously slashed out fierce sword qi, killing those half-step Heavenly Venerable-level powerhouses who couldn’t escape.
Splash! Splash!
Countless bodies fell on the sea surface, staining the waters red, a shocking sight.
"Escape!"
Many Cosmic Sea creatures at the half-step Heavenly Venerable and Immortal Emperor level managed to flee, but Ye Feng didn’t have time to kill them.
But, he was too lazy to chase.
After all, they had crossed the light screen into the other side of the Cosmic Sea, and he, as a cosmic being, was restricted by the rules of this area and couldn’t cross.
"What a pity, couldn’t kill them all."
Ye Feng expressed regret.
Venerable Hong Mei, Triangular Venerable, and Silver Eyebrow Venerable all had Divine Talismans bestowed by the Heavenly Venerable, which protected them from fatal injuries, allowing them to escape.
However, they were all severely injured.
As for Thunderclap Venerable, since he was merely an elder from a top power in the Cosmic Sea and, despite being a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable powerhouse, he had no Heavenly Venerable to back him, thus lacking a similar life-saving talisman.
Ye Feng’s sword directly annihilated him.
"This battle can be considered a great victory."
Ye Feng analyzed the battle’s outcomes. Not only did he acquire the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array through the Divine Weapon Possession Talisman, but he also cleaved Thunderclap Venerable, a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, severely injured Triangular Venerable, Hong Mei Venerable, and Silver Eyebrow Venerable, and casually eradicated dozens of Half-Step Heavenly Venerables and tens of thousands of Immortal Emperors.
This result was already quite impressive.
"Alliance Master Ye Feng is mighty and domineering!"
Master of Demon Spirits and others gathered around, standing on the beach, gazing at the heroic Ye Feng and the countless floating corpses on the sea, finally looking up at the floating Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array in mid-air, they couldn’t help swallowing, their hearts racing.
This battle, Ye Feng was in the spotlight.
Reviving hundreds of cosmic powerhouses, withstanding the terrifying Punishment Divine Thunder, overcoming and obtaining the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array, slashing Thunderclap Venerable, severely injuring the remaining three Quasi-Heavenly Venerable powerhouses, eradicating countless strong foes...
These glorious deeds, achieving even one would be enough to be proud of.
And Ye Feng achieved them all.
This man is invincible!
"Fellow cultivators, are you all well?" Ye Feng looked around, his gaze falling on the Master of Demon Spirits and others, making them feel immense pressure.
In their eyes, Ye Feng was too strong.
He gave the impression of a Heavenly Venerable.
Even Quasi-Heavenly Venerable powerhouses would avoid him, as if avoiding a deadly snake or scorpion.
"Reporting to the Alliance Master, we are all fine."
"Thank you for the grace of resurrection, Alliance Master."
Everyone expressed their gratitude one after another.
"Alright, as long as you’re fine." Ye Feng smiled, taking out the Myriad Spirits Treasure Vase that turned into a black hole, devouring the corpses of those powerhouses on the sea, refining them into the Origin of Laws.
Thunderclap Venerable had already exploded.
However, there were still many remnants of the Origin of Laws scattered in the nearby void that could be absorbed; how many Law Origin Crystals could be refined was not something Ye Feng could calculate.
But, better than nothing.
The arms of Silver Eyebrow Venerable, Triangular Venerable, and Venerable Hong Mei also fell onto the sea, being absorbed by Ye Feng into the Myriad Spirits Treasure Vase, refined into the Origin of Laws.
This battle was richly rewarding for him.
Half a day later.
The battlefield was cleaned up, Ye Feng took the lion’s share of the spoils, while the others were allocated some corpses of the Immortal Emperor-level powerhouses.
That was what Ye Feng gave them.
There were so many, just the corpses of Immortal Emperors above the Ninety Layer numbered over tens of thousands. Ye Feng gave only a small fraction to them, which was already a lot.
He did this with intention.
"Alliance Master Ye Feng, when I return to the Universe, I will definitely help you obtain an Origin Divine Talisman. By then, holding the Origin Divine Talisman, you can safely enter our universe without being targeted by the Cosmic Consciousness."
The Master of Demon Spirits said excitedly.
He had already invited Ye Feng to visit the Demon Spirit Universe he resided in and, while there, to guide his unruly juniors and clansmen.
"Welcome to visit, Sect Master Ye."
Other cosmic powerhouses also extended their invitations.
"Rest assured, I have some matters to attend to and will return to the Universe shortly. Once I have time, I will definitely visit each of your universes." Ye Feng accepted gladly.
He had long wanted to go to other universes.
After all, each universe had its own treasures. If he could find some top materials or some long-hidden spiritual liquid, it could be used to strengthen the Primordial Sword Embryo or promote the transformation of the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree.
"Farewell, everyone!"
Ye Feng, accompanied by the Meteor God King, Venus God-King, and Eternal Star God King, entered the 426 passage of the Twin Universe and soon disappeared from everyone’s sight.
"Let’s go, we’re heading back too."
"With Thunderclap Venerable dead and the remaining three Quasi-Heavenly Venerables severely injured, our Outer Domain Battlefield should have no invaders for some time."
Master of Demon Spirits and others also returned to their respective universes.
Previously, cosmic powerhouses used to clash.
However, after this battle, they developed a deep camaraderie, and apart from a few treacherous individuals, most didn’t want to become enemies with other cosmic powerhouses and preferred to make friends instead.
Cosmic Sea Creatures were their true enemies.
Blue Shark people headquarters.
"Wow!"
Silver Eyebrow Venerable coughed up a mouthful of blood, looking at the wounds on his two severed arms, his eyes full of anger.
"Damn it, truly damn it!"
"Ye Feng, I want your life!"
Venerable Hong Mei and Triangular Venerable both lost an arm, which was very hard to regrow, and they were covered with sword marks, blood flowing profusely.
Nearby, there were more than a hundred Half-Step Heavenly Venerables.
But no one dared to speak.
The three Venerables were in a rage; if they accidentally provoked them, they would surely be obliterated.
"Senior brother, what should we do now?"
"What should we do? Who could have imagined that the Sky Annihilation Four Immortals Array would be taken by Ye Feng? If not for that, we could have won a glorious victory. Now, with Ye Feng’s immense power, we must strategically retreat."
"Alas, that’s all we can do."
Venerable Hong Mei and Silver Eyebrow Venerable, the pair of senior brothers, floated in the sea, sighing.
"Aren’t you going to ask for help from the Heavenly Venerable?"
Triangular Venerable’s face looked grim.
"We did, but our master has yet to respond," said Venerable Hong Mei.
"I also have to contact the Heavenly Venerable of our Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan and ask for their decision." Triangular Venerable nodded, realizing that they, as Quasi-Heavenly Venerables, could not suppress Ye Feng alone; they had to rely on the Heavenly Venerable.
Swish, swish, swish!
The crowd quickly dispersed, plotting for the future.
...
Twin Universe, Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom.
"Gentlemen, I must return to the Sect. After all, it is already the Qingming Festival, and I must honor my ancestors. Once I finish my current tasks, I will return."
Ye Feng bid farewell to everyone.
"Goodbye, Sect Master Ye!"
Meteor God King and others saw Ye Feng off, and in the process shared their experiences at the Outer Domain Battlefield, astounding those Divine Kings who hadn’t gone.
"One sword strike to kill Quasi-Heavenly Venerable Thunderclap Venerable?"
"My heavens!"
Several Divine Kings were dumbfounded, regretting that they hadn’t followed Ye Feng to the Outer Domain Battlefield, missing the chance to witness such a breathtaking scene.
Misty Peak.
Ye Feng returned to this place and realized today was exactly the day before Qingming Festival; there was still time to prepare.
"Jiaojiao, prepare to steam the glutinous rice!"
Ye Feng called out once, and Li Jiaojiao quickly came to his side, using the leaf juice from the Purple Maple Ancient Tree to mix with the glutinous rice.
After some preparation,
a large pot of glutinous rice was ready, exuding an aromatic purple vapor that, with just a whiff, could make one feel at ease, entering an Enlightenment State.
"Wow, it smells amazing."
A female disciple grabbed a handful of purple glutinous rice, sniffed it carefully, and then ate it.
"Let me try it too."
The other disciples gathered around to taste the glutinous rice made from the Purple Maple Ancient Tree. First, it was the delicious taste, then they all entered the Enlightenment State, even better than drinking Enlightenment Tea, and it was filling.
"Don’t eat it all; tomorrow is the Qingming Festival, a traditional day for honoring ancestors. I’m taking you to pay respects to the Old Sect Leader."
Ye Feng reminded them.
"Yes, sir!" Upon hearing that they were going to honor the Old Sect Leader, Li Jiaojiao quickly urged everyone to continue steaming glutinous rice.
The next morning.
April 5, Qingming Festival.
Across the Shenzhou Mainland, a continuous drizzle fell.
Ye Feng led over a hundred thousand members of the Misty Holy Sect to gather at the foothills of Misty Peak, standing in front of a cemetery. Due to the large number of people, he used Space Divine Skills to create an inner space in front of the cemetery.
It could accommodate not just a hundred thousand but even a million people.
"Senior brother, I’m here to see you."
Ye Feng sat in front of the Old Sect Leader’s grave, filled three cups with wine, and placed offerings like glutinous rice, chicken, duck, goose, candies, biscuits, and fruits before the grave.
"Old Sect Leader!"
Tens of thousands of members of the Misty Holy Sect held three burning incense sticks in their hands, bowing in unison, their voices almost thunderous.
Buzz!
The surrounding void trembled, perhaps sensing the Old Sect Leader, a Life Heavenly Venerable’s spirit in heaven.
Upon seeing this, Ye Feng looked up at the sky.
Just now there was continuous rain, but now the Shenzhou Mainland was clear and bright, refreshing all onlookers.
"Senior brother, you are Life Heavenly Venerable. There is a possibility of returning at the Peak someday, though I don’t know when or where. But I know I will patiently wait and continue to strengthen the Sect."
Ye Feng spoke softly.
Strengthening the Sect is not only to inherit the will of the Old Sect Leader, the Life Heavenly Venerable, but it is also his goal.
He believes the future is beautiful.
It’s full of hope!
As long as you have thoughts in your heart and strive for them!
