Chapter 392: Chapter 392: The First to Reach the Void Break Realm, Dharma Aspect (Eight Updates)
Ye Feng was unaware of the fury of the Blood Demon Hall Branch Master.
Even if he knew, it wouldn’t matter to him.
The two major forces were inherently enemies. The angrier the Blood Demon Hall Branch Master became, the happier Ye Feng was—in fact, he even wished he could infuriate the man to death.
“Sect Master Ye, I’ve come again.”
In the afternoon, Liu Ming arrived at Misty Peak.
“Lord Liu wouldn’t visit without good reason. Your sudden arrival today wouldn’t be for the Bloodline Purifying Pill, would it?” Seeing Liu Ming, Ye Feng was somewhat surprised.
“You’re right, Sect Master Ye. I’ve indeed not come for the Bloodline Purifying Pill this time, but rather to deliver an important piece of news,” Liu Ming replied, sitting solemnly under a golden willow tree.
Ye Feng quickly asked Hu Feifei to make tea and then sat opposite Liu Ming, asking, “What’s the big news?”
“Do you remember the thunderstorm a few months ago that affected the entire Mystique Kingdom?” Liu Ming asked in a deep voice.
“Of course, I remember!” Ye Feng nodded.
That night, the Tiger General from Fuyun Gloomy Forest had led dozens of High-rank Demon Soldier Level Demon Beasts to besiege Misty Peak—it was the most dangerous battle in the history of Misty Sect.
Fortunately, they had survived.
“Do you know the origin of that thunderstorm?” asked Liu Ming again.
“I have a rough idea,” nodded Ye Feng, “I heard it was a thunderstorm triggered by Ancestor Lingmiao’s tribulation, affecting an area tens of thousands of miles in radius, covering the entire Mystique Kingdom.”
“That’s correct. He was undergoing his tribulation, and he succeeded!” Liu Ming revealed a bombshell.
Ye Feng was equally shocked by this news.
It was the Void Break Realm Heavenly Tribulation that Ancestor Lingmiao had undergone.
His success meant that Mystique Kingdom had given birth to its first-ever Void Break Realm expert, didn’t it?
But, wasn’t this too long?
Several months had passed since the tribulation.
Could it be that after high-level tribulations, one must remain in seclusion this long to successfully consolidate their realm?
Ye Feng was filled with confusion.
“So, is this the news that Lord Liu wanted to share? But what does the birth of a Void Break Realm have to do with us?” Ye Feng pondered.
Liu Ming raised an eyebrow and said, “If it were a regular Void Break Realm birth, it wouldn’t matter much, but Sect Master Ye, aren’t you aware that Ancestor Lingmiao is the first Void Break Realm expert in the history of Mystique Kingdom?”
“I am aware, but what about it?”
“Whenever a country sees the birth of its first Void Break Realm, it is granted an audience with an Ancient Saint and has the chance to join that Holy Land, becoming a subsidiary force under its command and earning the right to visit it on a pilgrimage.”
“Ancestor Lingmiao of Mystique Kingdom will have an audience with a Saint?”
“That’s right!”
“But how does that relate to us?” Ye Feng hesitated, “Lord Liu, can you not speak in riddles? Can’t you just tell the whole story?”
Liu Ming was left speechless by the question.
He realized he had indeed been beating around the bush.
Thus, clearing his throat and speaking more directly, Liu Ming said, “Once a country gives birth to its first Void Break Realm, that country is eligible to become a Four Star-Level Force and enter the view of an Ancient Saint. If Ancestor Lingmiao of Mystique Kingdom gains the favor of an Ancient Saint, our Mystique Kingdom will receive a blessing from the Saint, undergoing a once-in-a-millennium transformation of heaven and earth!”
“Heaven and earth transformation?!”
Ye Feng was startled by the term.
“Could it mean the transformation of the mountains and rivers within Mystique Kingdom into Spirit Veins, with nature’s spiritual energy becoming even denser and countless flora turning into Demonic Beasts and Spiritual Beasts?”
Ye Feng quickly inquired.
If true, it would be similar to the “heaven and earth transformation” of the System.
“It’s not that miraculous, but the effect is similar.”
Liu Ming nodded strongly, continuing, “Ancient Saints are the backbone of heaven and earth, upholding the will of the heavens and earth. They can borrow the mighty powers from the Shenzhou Continent to transform the Mystique Kingdom with ease. When that time comes, all Spirit Vein qualities will improve, and the earth’s spiritual energy will become richer, further suitable for cultivation.”
“So you mean there will be a resurgence of spiritual energy?” Ye Feng’s eyes sharpened, using this term to interpret the information.
“Spiritual energy resurgence?” Liu Ming paused, thinking carefully, he felt that the term indeed fit the explanation.
Nodding his head, he said, “Yes, that’s roughly it. Of course, this so-called resurgence only includes the territory of Mystique Kingdom. Other nations, such as the Barren Desert, South Ming Country, and so on, will not experience this enhancement.”
“I’m quite curious, why would the Ancient Saint expend such great effort to transform the Mystique Kingdom?” Ye Feng voiced his inner doubts.
“Two reasons,”
Liu Ming held up two fingers, “First, to display the Ancient Saint’s mighty power and harvest followers; second, the Mystique Kingdom effectively becomes a force under that Ancient Saint’s command. After transforming this region, it becomes more conducive to the birth of geniuses. In the future, there might be outstanding talents who become disciples of that Ancient Saint.”
“Oh, so that’s how it is!”
Ye Feng laughed.
It seems that even the Ancient Saints are very concerned about returns when they take action.
“By the way, in at most three days, the Heaven and Earth Resurgence will arrive. At that time, there will be a Heavenly Dew lasting for three days and nights. This period is the key moment for breaking through realms. Sect Master Ye, don’t waste this opportunity!”
As he spoke, Liu Ming drank a cup of tea, “Alright, I also have to go into seclusion. For a long time in the future, I probably won’t be going out, as I’m striving to reach the Middle-Rank Demon King Realm.”
“Sect Master Ye, I take my leave!”
He clasped his hands together, stood up, and left.
Ye Feng sat in his chair, his expression dark and uncertain.
Heaven and Earth Resurgence is beneficial to all beings in the Mystique Kingdom; it’s an important springboard.
With proper use, one might achieve an even higher realm.
“According to ancient records, the Sect Master of Divine Wind Sword Sect was only at the third level of the Spirit Sea Realm before. But after years of hard cultivation, he has reached the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm, just like the Commandery Prince and Mo Tianlong.”
“Such people will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to attempt breaking through to the Divine Origin Realm.”
“In addition, some cultivators at the peak of the Element Gathering Realm are probably hoping to break through to the Spirit Sea Realm.”
“It’s a pity that this Heavenly Dew is of no use to me.”
Ye Feng looked at the other members of Misty Sect, “I only hope they can seize this opportunity to make a breakthrough!”
If over a hundred members of Misty Sect made a breakthrough together, the enhancement to their cultivation levels would undoubtedly be tremendous.
Ye Feng felt that by that time, with just his flesh body strength, he would be able to sweep through many Spirit Sea Realm experts.
But still, there was a significant gap compared to the Divine Origin Realm.
“After this event, I need to hurry up and recruit disciples.”
Ye Feng silently decided.
This was an important way to enhance his own standing, and also, only by recruiting more disciples could he meet the conditions for Misty Sect to ascend to Two-Star Rank forces.
Soon, he gathered all the sect disciples and announced the upcoming arrival of the Heavenly Dew, instructing everyone to prepare.
“Is there really going to be a Sage exerting great divine skills to bless the domains within the entire Mystique Kingdom, bringing people an essential transformation?”
The disciples were all shaken by the news.
“Correct, prepare yourselves well, and when the time comes, make sure to bathe in this Heavenly Dew and give it your all to strive for a breakthrough in your realms,” Ye Feng instructed.
“Yes.” The disciples nodded one after another.
…
Tens of thousands of miles away.
The Royal Capital of Mystique Kingdom.
Above the only large Spirit Vein stood a distinguished-looking old man.
Even with a face full of long whiskers, which were neatly combed, and his snow-white hair bound up in a wooden crown made of purple Soul Nurturing Wood, he exuded an aura as if he had stepped out of a fairy tale.
“It’s Ancestor Lingmiao!”
Someone recognized the old man, immediately prostrating themselves on the ground.
Even the nation’s ruler, with Divine Origin Realm cultivation, clad in the dignified Purple-Gold Dragon Robe, had to lead the court’s powers to kneel on the ancient jade altar, faces brimming with devotion.
But Ancestor Lingmiao did not pay attention to the people.
To him, his pursuit of the Great Dao was his ultimate objective, where conventions, hierarchy, and worldly manners were as fragile as paper, easily shattered at a touch before the supreme Dao.
“It’s starting!”
Ancestor Lingmiao extended his arms, and amidst the shocked gazes of the onlookers, he let loose a terrifying aura that seemed to crush the heavens, connecting to nature’s spiritual energy and conjuring behind him a colossal figure resembling his own appearance, but whose form rose to ten thousand feet tall.
The emergence of this figure caused everyone to feel as if they were suppressed by a mountain, and even Divine Origin Realm powers were forced to lay on the ground, unable to move a muscle.
For this was Dharma Aspect!
