Chapter 780: Chapter 780: Li Wanqing Joins the Sect, Modifying the Formation (Three More)
“Oh, I think about it all the time!”
Li Wanqing was excited and full of anticipation.
Joining Misty Sect meant she could freeload off the Spirit Gathering Tower.
How could she not think about it?
“Then, follow me to meet the Sect Leader,” Gong Qingqiu said, taking Li Wanqing’s hand and heading towards the summit of Misty Peak.
Thump! Thump!
Upon hearing she was going to meet Ye Feng, Li Wanqing’s excitement made her heartbeat quicken, and her pretty face flushed with color.
In front of the Thunder Palace.
Ye Feng overheard Gong Qingqiu and Li Wanqing’s conversation.
He was quite interested in Li Wanqing, the business talent.
If he could recruit her into the sect, she could help Ouyang Feng and Ouyang Yu expand and strengthen the Misty Sect’s shops, increasing the sect’s business revenue.
Whoosh!
Ye Feng landed at the top of Misty Peak.
A moment later.
Li Wanqing and Gong Qingqiu arrived nearby to see Ye Feng lifting a cup to drink tea.
His handsome profile made Li Wanqing’s heartbeat race even faster.
“So… so handsome!”
“Truly worthy of being Sect Master Ye, even more good looking than the rumors by countless times. If I could marry him, I’d die willing!”
Li Wanqing’s breathing grew more rapid.
“Sect Leader, this is Li Wanqing, the host of Whitefloat City Auction House. She wishes to join our Misty Sect… Oh right, she has already passed the test of the Fate Purple Gold Bell.”
Gong Qingqiu took the initiative to speak.
“Okay,” Ye Feng nodded in agreement.
Without another word, he took out the Sect Name Register, asked a few questions, and then began to write.
Clap!
With Ye Feng’s seal on the Sect Leader’s Seal, Li Wanqing hadn’t even realized what had happened before she officially joined the Misty Sect.
“From now on, Li Wanqing will be our Misty Sect’s Finance and Trade Elder, specially handling the development of the Misty Sect’s trade and commerce.”
“Next, Elder Gong, you will arrange living quarters and other matters for Elder Li,” Ye Feng continued, then waved his hand and disappeared without a trace.
Li Wanqing stood there, stunned.
“Congratulations, Sister Wanqing. From today on, you are the Finance and Trade Elder of our Misty Sect,” Gong Qingqiu congratulated her from the side.
“Ah? Just like that?” Li Wanqing was heartbroken, she didn’t get a chance to speak more with Ye Feng before he left, such a pity!
“But now that I’ve joined Misty Sect, there will be plenty of days ahead to see the Sect Leader, no rush.”
Li Wanqing thought to herself.
Soon.
Gong Qingqiu brought Li Wanqing to Feilai Peak, arranging a place for her to live. When asked where Ye Feng lived, Gong Qingqiu pointed to the center of the Misty Peak summit and answered:
“The Sect Leader and First Generation Disciples live in the central courtyard atop the peak. The Eye of Spirit Vein is right in the courtyard.”
“That courtyard is where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within our Misty Sect is most concentrated.”
“Unfortunately…”
“The central courtyard is full. We can’t live there and can only reside nearby.”
Upon hearing she couldn’t live near Ye Feng, Li Wanqing felt a great pity, but she said nothing.
Thunder Palace.
Ye Feng sat cross-legged in front of the door.
Whoosh!
After half a day of tribulation, the Destiny Treasure Bead finally persevered, falling into the Thunder Pool within the Thunder Palace, absorbing the Thunder Origin, solidifying its essence.
Several more hours passed.
The Destiny Treasure Bead completed its transformation and officially became a powerful Four-Star Transcendent Spirit Treasure.
Just one more step, and it would become a Sacred Arm.
“It’s finally usable.”
Ye Feng fished the Destiny Treasure Bead out of the Thunder Pool and discovered that after transforming into a Four-Star Transcendent Spirit Treasure, the quantity of the Power of Destiny had increased more than a hundredfold.
In some situations, it could be considered inexhaustible.
“Now I can modify the formation.”
Ye Feng held the Destiny Treasure Bead in his left hand while the forefinger and middle finger of his right hand overlapped, like a pen tip, starting to draw Array Patterns in different positions throughout the Thunder Palace.
With each stroke, a strand of Heavenly Mandate’s Power was consumed.
After advancing to a Four-Star Transcendent Spirit Treasure, the Destiny Treasure Bead’s recovery speed of the Power of Destiny was very fast.
In the beginning.
Ye Feng’s carving pace was quick, the power of destiny he expended was substantial, far exceeding the recovery rate of the power of destiny.
But after half a day.
The recovery speed of the power of destiny basically leveled with the consumption rate, and there was no longer a situation where the power of destiny was insufficient.
“Phew!”
“Thank goodness the Destiny Treasure Bead advanced to the Four-Star Transcendent Spirit Treasure level, otherwise, the power of destiny would not have been enough.”
Ye Feng secretly rejoiced.
Three days later.
He finished the carving, exhausted, he lay down beside the Thunder Pool, looking around, one could see the walls of Thunder Palace covered in complex pale golden Ancient Runes, containing extremely mysterious forces.
These were the Saint-level Array Patterns, a completely upgraded version based on the Formation of the Road to Sainthood.
Each one was imbued with Ye Feng’s painstaking effort.
Now, the Formation had been successfully inscribed.
But, there was one final step.
“Ultimate Sacred Array, activate!”
Ye Feng bit his index finger and dripped ten drops of fresh blood and three thousand strands of the power of destiny into the Thunder Pool to activate the Formation.
Pop!
All the Golden Runes seemed to come to life.
They leapt within the Thunder Palace.
Like golden Spirit Fish.
Each rune trailed a golden thread behind it, weaving together, forming an extremely intricate Formation.
Finally, the light faded.
Thunder Palace returned to its once placid state.
But, only Ye Feng knew, its tolerance limit had increased by more than tenfold, its grade had also surpassed the level of a Four-Star Transcendent Spirit Treasure, getting infinitely close to Sacred Arms.
Although its grade wasn’t high, to a certain extent, Thunder Palace was much stronger than real Sacred Arms.
“Let’s see what your limit is.”
Ye Feng stretched out his hand and placed it on the Merit List, sensing carefully, the expression on his face becoming increasingly surprised.
“Well done!”
“Every three years, it will be able to accumulate enough energy for one Saint Ascension Tribulation, which means that as long as the cultivators of Shenzhou Continent are promising enough, a new Saint Entry Realm could be added every three years.”
Although he said that, Ye Feng knew that having one Saint Entry Realm every three years was impossible.
All the Four-Turn Quasi-Saints in Shenzhou Continent altogether probably amounted to no fewer than a hundred.
But, despite having struggled for hundreds or thousands of years, they dared not undergo the tribulation.
Ultimately, it was because the Saint Ascension Tribulation was too terrifying.
A single misstep could lead to death.
“Because of the absorption of a large amount of the power of destiny, it will be possible to accumulate enough energy for the first Saint Ascension Tribulation in a year.”
“After that, it will be once every three years.”
“This is indeed good news.”
Ye Feng tore through the void, descending upon the Nine Cities Star Cloud.
The Star River Quasi-Saint was chatting with the Ancient Sacred True Dragon when he saw Ye Feng coming and hurriedly got up to greet him.
Ye Feng looked straight at the Star River Quasi-Saint:
“After one year, you can cross the Saint Ascension Tribulation.”
“Ah… Ah?!”
The Star River Quasi-Saint was at first stunned, it took several seconds for him to register, his eyes filled with shock.
Having said that, Ye Feng had already left.
The Star River Quasi-Saint wanted to ask more, but realized he couldn’t find Ye Feng, leaving him to ponder the words Ye Feng had just uttered.
“Hey!”
“Congratulations, little brother Star River, you’re going to become a Saint!”
The Ancient Sacred True Dragon slapped Star River Quasi-Saint’s shoulder with such force that the latter shook three times before realizing that the scene just now wasn’t a dream, but reality.
“One year later, the Saint Ascension Tribulation? That’s great, I’m going to become a Saint!” The Star River Quasi-Saint laughed manically.
The Ancient Sacred True Dragon pointed at the nearby piles of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and suggested:
“Little brother Star River, with as many treasures as mountains, we can buy countless precious materials for you to refine Thunder-avoiding Spiritual Treasures that will raise the success rate of your tribulation.”
Hearing this, the Star River Quasi-Saint nodded repeatedly:
“True Dragon brother is right. Previously, I was too poor to gather so many materials, but ever since looting the treasuries of the powerful clans in the starry sky, I’ve become wealthy. In the coming year, I must prepare a large number of Tribulation Crossing Spiritual Treasures.”
“I will help you craft the Spiritual Treasures,” the Ancient Sacred True Dragon volunteered, “I am False Heavenly Dao, possessing Half-Step Dao Fire, capable of refining top-grade Transcendent Spirit Treasures that are close to the level of Sacred Arms.”
“Thank you so much, then,” Star River Quasi-Saint exclaimed joyfully.
