Chapter 2101: Chapter 2101: Alchemy and the Grand Event
"How did you escape?" Tian Qi asked curiously, taking the initiative to inquire.
"I’m also very curious," Zhou Yan said.
Ye Feng wore a mysterious expression and said, "I have my own secrets, which I cannot tell you, haha!"
The Three Realms Universe is very special.
This is the foundation of his life, and he couldn’t casually expose such secrets. But on second thought, Zhou Yan and Tian Qi could be trusted based on their character.
Thus, Ye Feng decided to reveal a little.
"Look at this, what do you see?"
Ye Feng condensed a stone stele on the ground, less than three feet wide, one foot thick, and eight feet high, with various profound spatial array patterns engraved on its surface, unintelligible to others.
"What is this?"
"A stone stele? Gasp, these are actually profound spatial array patterns; this is quite a rarity!"
Tian Qi and Zhou Yan expressed their astonishment.
Space is king, and time is respected.
Being able to comprehend these two laws can also make one a top genius within the same realm. However, these two laws are extremely difficult to comprehend, leaving many without a clue.
But Ye Feng had mastered this technique.
"This is a Door of the Outer Realm, granting access to my Three Realms Universe. Of course, without my permission, even a Dao Monarch Peak probably cannot enter."
Ye Feng explained.
"Oh, so it’s a door leading to the universe within your body. But why are you putting it out here? Shouldn’t it be well protected?"
Tian Qi frowned.
Beside him, Zhou Yan was also puzzled as to why Ye Feng had brought this out.
"Look at this."
Ye Feng extended his hand, releasing a second, third, and fourth Door of the Outer Realm.
This scene left Tian Qi and Zhou Yan stunned.
"How is this possible?"
They exclaimed in unison.
"A universe isn’t supposed to have more than one Door of the Outer Realm, is it? Even a Twin Universe can only have two, and a Three-Lifetimes Universe at most three. But how does your universe have four? Has it evolved into a Four-Lifetimes Universe?"
Tian Qi quickly asked for an explanation.
Ye Feng didn’t speak, he simply flicked his wrist, and the surrounding area filled with Doors of the Outer Realm, resembling a forest of steles, numbering in the hundreds or thousands, astonishing the two.
"My universe can manifest an infinite number of Doors of the Outer Realm. So, wherever I go to a new place, I can secretly leave a Door of the Outer Realm, facilitating entry and exit from the universe."
Ye Feng explained.
The two understood upon hearing this.
The Three Realms Universe serves as a transit station; the numerous Doors of the Outer Realm placed around serve as portals in and out. This way, even if Ye Feng were trapped, he could use the universe as a hub to easily escape.
Unless someone could sever the connection between Ye Feng and his internal universe, no one could trap him.
"Ye Feng, can any Dao Monarch break your connection with your internal universe?" Zhou Yan asked.
Ye Feng shook his head and said, "Of course not."
"What about a Dao Venerable?" Tian Qi asked.
"That, I wouldn’t know, as I’ve never encountered a Dao Venerable level powerhouse," Ye Feng still shook his head, but he felt internally that it should be unlikely.
After all, even the Invincible Old Man cannot lock onto the specific coordinates of the Three Realms Universe, so it’s highly improbable for Dao Venerable, Grand Dao Venerable, Boundless Venerable, or others at those levels to sever his connection with the Three Realms Universe.
If I can’t win, I can easily run.
"That’s still impressive, at least no Dao Monarch can break your connection with the universe, which means no Dao Monarch can trap you. Man, you should’ve told us about this earlier, we were really worried about you."
"Get punched!"
Tian Qi and Zhou Yan simultaneously punched Ye Feng on the shoulder and chest, their faces smiling.
"Didn’t I confess now?" Ye Feng shrugged, retrieving the nearby Doors of the Outer Realm.
"So, can we use your Three Realms Universe as a transit station to return to the Chaos Dao Sect?"
Zhou Yan asked.
"I’m afraid not, because my Three Realms Universe is only at a middle-rank Great Universe level. You’re both at Seventh-turn Heavenly Venerable level, and your presence would exert too much pressure; I’m worried it would burst the universe."
Ye Feng waved his hands repeatedly.
"All right, let’s transport back."
The three entered the great city’s Transporting Holy Temple, from there reaching the closest major city to the Chaos Dao Sect, and flew millions of miles, finally arriving at the Chaos Dao Sect.
"My child, bring Ye Feng to the backyard."
A gentle voice rang out.
"It’s my father! He knows we’re back, let’s go meet him together," Zhou Yan looked at Ye Feng and Tian Qi beside him, extending the invitation.
"Okay," Tian Qi nodded.
He had already met the Sect Master of the Chaos Dao Sect.
In his heart, he felt no tension.
Ye Feng held his breath; he didn’t expect to meet someone on par with the Blood-Colored Ancient Tree, the Dao Monarch Peak realm Chaos Dao Sect Sect Master.
In his heart, he felt tense yet curious.
The three walked to the backyard of the Chaos Dao Sect, where lay a continuous field of flowers, with a secluded, tranquil little courtyard in the middle.
In the courtyard sat a middle-aged man.
He wore a robe of chaotic colors, exuding the aura of a long-time superior, his face commanding without anger, and the laws around him constantly twisted, showcasing his might.
This was the Chaos Dao Sect Sect Master, Zhou Jian.
A Dao Monarch Peak powerhouse, proficient in the Law of Chaos, his combat strength far exceeding that of peers, a top-tier talent within the Dao Monarch realm, having few rivals in Haizhou.
"Father, we are here," Zhou Yan cupped his hands.
"Greetings, Senior Zhou Jian," Tian Qi saluted.
"Greetings, Senior," Ye Feng also saluted.
"No need for formalities," Zhou Jian looked at Ye Feng, chaotic light beams flashing in his eyes, yet unable to fathom Ye Feng’s depths, suddenly surprised, "What a prodigy! Even I, at Dao Monarch Peak, cannot see through you. Impressive!"
"Senior overpraises," Ye Feng remained humble.
"Young man, you’re indeed extraordinary, being able to escape the seal of the Blood-Colored Ancient Tree. Just by this alone, no one in the Dao Monarch realm can hold you," Zhou Jian said.
Ye Feng smiled without speaking.
Zhou Jian looked into the distance, saying, "Unexpectedly, Radiant Daoist has already escaped, surely he must hate the Blood-Colored Ancient Tree and desire revenge?"
Hearing this, Ye Feng’s expression subtly changed.
The whereabouts of Radiant Daoist were exposed!
"I’ve been observing you in secret for a long time, and naturally know of Radiant Daoist’s existence. That day you drew away nearly a hundred Heavenly Venerables of the Abyss Clan and Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan, then a giant hand appeared, obliterating them. That was Radiant Daoist’s doing, which I witnessed with my own eyes."
Zhou Jian stated calmly.
Ye Feng immediately forced a smile, realizing that he and Radiant Daoist had long been monitored by the Sect Master of the Chaos Dao Sect.
Fortunately, the other party wasn’t an enemy.
"Radiant Daoist? The one notorious for his fondness of married women, who was later besieged by numerous Dao Monarchs and eventually suppressed?"
Zhou Yan exclaimed in surprise.
It turns out, Ye Feng had Radiant Daoist, a Dao Monarch realm backer.
"Is there something wrong with liking married women?" Radiant Daoist appeared beside Ye Feng, spreading his hands.
He appeared upon receiving a message from Ye Feng.
Now facing the Sect Master of the Chaos Dao Sect, Radiant Daoist felt immense pressure.
"Dao Monarch Peak!"
Zhou Yan, Tian Qi, and Chaos Dao Sect Sect Master Zhou Jian were all astonished at Radiant Daoist’s cultivation level. A million years ago, Radiant Daoist was only at the early stage of Dao Monarch, but now he has reached the Dao Monarch Peak, there must be some fortuitous encounter.
"Who doesn’t have some fortuitous encounter?"
Radiant Daoist folded his arms, "However, my combat power is average; among the Dao Monarch Peak, I am at the tail end without any deterrent power."
"It doesn’t matter, at least you can suppress most of the late-stage Dao Monarchs, right?" Chaos Dao Sect Sect Master Zhou Jian’s eyes flickered as he spoke, not caring about how Radiant Daoist became a Dao Monarch Peak since everyone has their own secrets. He shifted the topic, "I think we can cooperate."
"Cooperate?" Radiant Daoist was surprised.
Ye Feng and others raised their brows as well.
"That’s right, the Blood Sea suppressed by the Blood-Colored Ancient Tree is a treasure land, and you have a grudge against the Blood-Colored Ancient Tree. I wish to join hands with you to capture the Blood Sea and completely eradicate the Blood Moon Clan, a hegemon-level power."
Zhou Jian’s words were shocking.
"Do you know that once a Dao Monarch Peak powerhouse starts a war, it will be a situation where two hegemon-level powers are at each other’s throats, how could one dare do that!" Radiant Daoist exclaimed.
"The Blood Moon Clan and the Godly Ape Clan are not good things, of course, I am not a saint myself, but exterminating them will benefit us."
Zhou Jian spoke frankly.
He wanted to destroy a hegemon-level power and gain resources from there, which might allow him to break through the Dao Monarch Peak and become a Dao Venerable.
"The Blood-Colored Ancient Tree is my enemy, I do want to chop it down, but with just you and me, it’s not enough to destroy the Blood Moon Clan. Once we act, the Godly Ape Clan will surely intervene as well."
Radiant Daoist said solemnly.
"Our Space Clan will support you." Tian Qi stepped forward, expressing his stance.
"I want to join too." Ye Feng said.
The third mission in the Sect Leader’s tenth-stage tasks required the sect to have a million disciples, each starting as Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, and to overwhelm a hegemon-level power in order to successfully advance to the Supreme Holy Land.
Therefore, he had decided to take action.
"Very well, but Ye Feng, Tian Qi, Yan’er, your cultivation levels are not high enough; should we initiate something major soon, you won’t be of much help."
Zhou Jian’s tone was deep.
"Father, if we go out to train more, can’t we quickly enhance our own strength?"
Zhou Yan said.
"Speaking of this, a conference will soon be held on Yunzhou, you can go there for a walk, you might gain some opportunity." Zhou Jian said.
"Alright." Zhou Yan nodded.
Later, everyone continued to plan the annihilation of the Blood Moon Clan, but due to insufficient manpower, they decided to act once Ye Feng and the others became stronger.
Half a day later.
At a altar of the Chaos Dao Sect.
Ye Feng sat cross-legged here, taking out Dragon-Patterned Immortal Gold, Azure Blue Gold, Eternal Divine Gold, etc., gathered from Blood Robe Dao Monarch’s treasure trove, and placed them on the altar’s surface.
"Rise!"
As Ye Feng formed the seals, the dragon heads around the altar spewed fiery flames, helping him to refine the Dragon-Patterned Immortal Gold and other materials into the Primordial Sword Embryo.
During the process, Ye Feng continually engraved array patterns.
The speed of this weapon refining was not fast.
A month later.
Ye Feng greeted his third Heavenly Tribulation, choosing not to leave but overcome it on the altar, taking the chance to absorb the Thunder Origin power and temper the Primordial Sword Embryo.
This made the sword even more powerful.
Rumble!
Countless divine thunders struck down, engulfing the altar and Ye Feng entirely, making it impossible to see any human or sword shadow.
"This guy, truly impressive!"
"Tempering the sword with tribulation, smart idea."
Tian Qi and Zhou Yan praised one after the other, ready to accompany Ye Feng to Yunzhou for the conference Zhou Jian had mentioned once he finished refining the Primordial Sword Embryo.
In the blink of an eye, another month passed.
Ye Feng had gone through the fourth Heavenly Tribulation but showed no signs of stopping, while on Spirit Turtle Island, a New Year celebration was being held, lively and festive.
However, Ye Feng was absent this year.
The event was hosted by Gong Qingqiu.
[Ding, a new year has begun, unlocking the recruitment rights for the twenty-sixth generation disciples!]
Ye Feng heard the notification sound while undergoing the tribulation.
The system proceeded to reward the sect members, but Ye Feng was too absorbed to care, continuing to undergo the tribulations and arranging Gong Qingqiu to recruit new generation disciples.
Time flew by, several more months passed.
Ye Feng had been continuously tempering the Primordial Sword Embryo and occasionally undergoing tribulations, getting closer to achieving the Heavenly Dao Realm.
"Is this guy aiming to achieve the Heavenly Dao Realm before the conference starts?" Tian Qi said.
However, the conference was starting next month.
If Ye Feng didn’t emerge soon, he would miss it.
Rumble!
This time, Ye Feng ceased his tribulation, and the Primordial Sword Embryo had finally been tempered, becoming several times stronger and even sharper.
"High Order Heavenly Monarch Divine Weapon, impressive!"
Tian Qi and Zhou Yan could see that the Primordial Sword Embryo now was incredibly powerful, not inferior to their own Life-bound Divine Weapons, which left them astounded.
Bear in mind, Ye Feng was only a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable.
Yet, his divine weapon was already so strong, his talent truly extreme, leaving others feeling powerless.
"What a pity, just three more tribulations short."
Upon emerging, Ye Feng carried the Primordial Sword Embryo on his back, his aura vast, enveloped in chaos mist, his eyes calm like ancient wells, stronger than before.
At present, he was not inferior to an Eighth-Turn Heavenly Venerate.
"No more pity, let’s head to Yunzhou for the conference first; after it’s over, you’ll have plenty of time for tribulations to aspire for the Heavenly Dao Realm." Zhou Yan said.
"Alright, let’s set off then!"
The three headed toward Yunzhou, and because Radiant Daoist was already discovered by Zhou Jian, he altered his appearance and cultivation aura, transforming into an old man with the peak of Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerate, following alongside the three.
That appearance closely resembled an old servant.
On the way.
Ye Feng looked at Zhou Yan, asking, "What is the significance of the conference Sect Master Zhou Jian is sending us to? What is it for?"
Zhou Yan replied, "It’s a gathering with all sorts of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures for sale, even an auction process, and there are also treasure hunts and competitions. In short, Yunzhou’s younger generation seems all set to go, yet from Haizhou, not many are going due to the lack of information."
"I see!" Ye Feng nodded, with hundreds of billions of pounds of Origin Stone in reserve, if he encountered something he needed, he could participate in the bidding.
Bang!
The group of four entered the Transporting Holy Temple, stepping onto the transport altar, turning into a beam of light.
Yunzhou, the Midwest.
An enormous city spanning hundreds of thousands of miles.
Ye Feng, Zhou Yan, Tian Qi, and Radiant Daoist appeared, observing the area.
This place is called Soaring Sky City.
Its City Lord is a Dao Monarch Peak.
Yunzhou is a powerful continent, with Dao Venerable powerhouses existing, but Dao Venerables are not cabbages; under normal circumstances or unless the occasion is special, they cannot be seen.
Usually, encountering a Dao Monarch is already good enough.
"Welcome, guests. Are you also here to attend our Soaring Sky City conference?" As soon as the four stepped out of the Transporting Holy Temple, they were stopped by a group of people.
