Chapter 904: Chapter 904: Enlightenment, One Step Into the Path, Life in the Minor Immortal Realm Chapter 904: Chapter 904: Enlightenment, One Step Into the Path, Life in the Minor Immortal Realm “I still couldn’t meet him,” Ye Feng sighed lightly.
He deeply admired Emperor Beihe, who was exceptionally talented. Even when in the Void Break Realm, Emperor Beihe had created the terrifyingly powerful “Seven Steps to Heaven,” which astonished everyone with his talent.
Later, as Emperor Beihe ventured into the starry sky, his accomplishments became even more astounding.
He transmitted teachings from the Northern Emperor Star.
He constructed the Road to Sainthood.
On the Heavenly Emperor Star, he created the Heavenly Thunder Formation, which could allow one to break through to the Quasi-Saint level, serving as an inspiration for Ye Feng.
And now, he had actually enhanced the “Seven Steps to Heaven!”
“Emperor Beihe is truly powerful!” Ye Feng exclaimed with admiration.
The Replica Ancient Saints stood aside, unsure why Ye Feng felt such admiration.
“Sect Master Ye, did you make any discoveries?” asked the Replica Ancient Saint.
“Yes,” Ye Feng nodded.
He walked through the main hall of the wooden house to a courtyard-shaped corridor with a skylight, where he saw several Spirit Fish in a water tank and smiled.
“Can you talk?” Ye Feng asked the largest one.
The Spirit Fish jumped out of the water and nodded: “Yes!”
“Ah, so it’s you three little fellows. Hundreds of years have passed, why haven’t you transformed yet?” The Replica Ancient Saint recognized the three Spirit Fish, stroking his beard and asking with a smile.
The Spirit Fish displayed a human-like expression of helplessness and said, “We were originally just ordinary goldfish. If it wasn’t for Emperor Beihe raising us for hundreds of years, we wouldn’t even have been able to awaken our spiritual intelligence, let alone transform.”
Ye Feng laughed.
Taking out the Destiny Treasure Bead, he said, “You’ve grown from ordinary goldfish to Spirit Fish at the Spirit Sea Realm, which is quite impressive. You are only one step away from transforming, and I can help you do it right now.”
The three Spirit Fish were immensely excited: “Really?”
Ye Feng nodded, “Of course, it’s true, but after you transform, you must take me to the place Emperor Beihe loved most and tell me the details.”
“No problem!”
The three Spirit Fish nodded repeatedly.
Seeing this, Ye Feng was satisfied.
He had just tried to perceive the surroundings but realized he was in the wrong place. He needed to sit where Emperor Beihe had once sat to perfectly perceive the new version of “Seven Steps to Heaven.”
And these details were known only to the three Spirit Fish.
Whoosh!
With Ye Feng waving the Destiny Treasure Bead, streams of the Power of Destiny floated out, entering the foreheads of the three Spirit Fish.
Hum!
The next moment, light burst forth.
The bodies of the three Spirit Fish were transformed by the Power of Destiny, evolving rapidly. Their cultivation ascended to the Divine Origin Realm, and they jumped out of the water tank, turning into three young girls in red dresses.
Because Ye Feng used the Power of Destiny to aid their transformation, they even bypassed the tribulation.
Such was the formidable power of the Destiny Treasure Bead, a Sacred Arms-level artifact.
Thus, in the aspect of enlightening all beings, Ye Feng was several times stronger than many Ancient Saints.
He was the Son of Destiny, wielded the Power of Destiny, and had a unique advantage in altering reality.
“Thank you, Senior, for enlightening us!”
“Please follow us, sisters.”
The lively goldfish girls picked up lanterns, leading the way, and soon brought Ye Feng to a willow tree beside a lake, three hundred meters from the wooden house.
There was a square stone slab there.
Ye Feng sat on it, looking out over the beautiful Immortal Lake, questioning the three goldfish girls and adjusting his position.
“Emperor Beihe loved the twilight.”
“At that time, he would place us three sisters in a small basin and bring us under this lakeside willow, sitting here quietly waiting.”
“Until the twilight ended.”
The goldfish girls narrated occurrences from hundreds of years ago.
“Twilight? I see!” Ye Feng realized, and sat quietly on the stone, gazing toward the lake’s western side.
Others sat on the grass, waiting too.
They sensed that Ye Feng must be looking for something and were very curious.
Several hours later.
The sun began to set.
The ruddy sunset slanted across the surface of the Immortal Lake, gradually revealing a unique landscape.
“There’s someone!”
“It’s the Ancient Sage Beihe.”
One of the goldfish girls pointed to the lake, surprised.
Everyone looked over.
They saw a robust man in white walking on the lake surface. With each step, the lake emitted bizarre lights that scattered and opened, resembling blooming lotuses.
But only Ye Feng could understand.
“This is the new version of the ‘Seven Steps to Heaven!'”
Ye Feng quietly observed, activating three-fifths of the Heart of Wisdom, fully comprehending this mighty Saint-level Divine Power.
“One Step Qi Refining, Cosmos Resurrection.”
“…”
“Seven Steps Heavenly Venerable, unmatched in the universe!”
In the scene.
Emperor Beihe, with his cultivation level of the Saint Entry Realm, performed the “Seven Steps to Heaven,” his aura converging at the peak, allowing him to shatter the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon of Saint Manifestation with merely the Saint Entry Realm, displaying terrifying combat power.
Seeing this, even Ye Feng was surprised.
“As expected of Emperor Beihe, in the same rank, there really are few who could win against him.”
He watched in shock and continued his observation.
Suddenly!
Emperor Beihe began to change his moves.
He unexpectedly walked backward for nine steps, dispersing all his aura, transforming from an Ancient Saint standing tall between heaven and earth to a mortal with no cultivation at all.
But at that moment, Ye Feng sensed the aura of the “Path.”
Although faint, it was genuinely there.
“One Step Into the Path, I am the Supreme!”
From within the scene, Emperor Beihe’s voice thundered earth-shatteringly, and his entire being turned into a beam of light, vanishing from sight.
The sun finally set behind the western mountains.
As the lake lost its sunset glow, Ye Feng could no longer continue his observation, but he was not disappointed; instead, he felt excitement and anticipation, planning to watch again at dusk the next day.
“Sect Master Ye, did you gain anything?”
The Ancient Sacred True Dragon curiously asked.
“A little,” Ye Feng nodded, “Starting today, I might reside here for a while.”
“That’s perfect, I was also looking to explore the Minor Immortal Realm,” the Ancient Sacred True Dragon’s eyes lit up.
“Good thing,” the Star River Saint also expressed approval.
“Tonight, I’ll host a banquet for you all and will also call over those unworthy disciples and grand-disciples,” the Replica Ancient Saint said, ready to offer his hospitality as the host.
“No need for now.”
Ye Feng shook his head, causing surprise among those present.
“Starting today, I will sit here continuously, comprehending everything left by Emperor Beihe until the opportune moment arrives, then I will leave.”
Ye Feng disclosed his future plans.
“Alright!”
Everyone wanted to persuade him, but felt it unnecessary; they could only leave him to it and attend their own tasks.
The Ancient Sacred True Dragon and Star River Saint wandered together through the Minor Immortal Realm, discovering many unusual Spiritual Medicines and Spirit Mines not found in Shenzhou or the Starry Sky.
The Replica Ancient Saint returned to the Immortal Hall.
The three golden fish sisters sat by the lake, dipping their pale feet in the water, fishing with their rods.
“Aren’t you goldfish yourself? Why do you fish?” Ye Feng asked.
“Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp. It’s only natural for us three sisters to fish by the lake!”
“Yes, we originally ate shrimps.”
“Now that we’re big fish, we can eat small fish.”
“Indeed!”
The three sisters, unashamed, waved their fishing rods, fishing for fish and shrimp in the Immortal Lake, promptly cleaned their catch, and then started a fire to barbecue.
Soon,
The aroma of grilled fish filled the air.
“Give me a fish.”
Ye Feng instantly turned into a freeloader, requesting a grilled fish from the golden fish sisters, took a bite, and almost spit it out.
This taste, truly awful!
“Grilling fish is not done this way, your technique is too rough. Let me teach you!” Ye Feng, somewhat speechless, personally took over, pulled out various seasonings, and demonstrated how to properly grill fish.
Ye Feng’s culinary skills were not poor.
After the disciples learned a Spell, he could instantly master it and reach the Perfect Stage, even innovating it further.
And some methods of a Spirit Chef, also count as Spells.
Thus, Ye Feng could be considered a Divine-level Spirit Chef, just that he seldom showed it.
A quarter-hour later,
Ye Feng placed the cooked fish on a plate, sprinkled cumin and spices, brought out a jar of Dragonfolk Clan medicinal wine, set it on the table, poured a bowl, and drank alone.
“Wow, this is delicious!”
“I could cry tears of joy.”
“This is a thousand times, ten thousand times tastier than the fish feed Emperor Beihe gave us!”
The three golden fish sisters exclaimed with delight.
“Senior Ye, what is this? We want to drink,” the oldest of the three sisters, Jin Qimeng, pointed at the Dragonfolk Clan medicinal wine and licked her lips.
“You want to drink?” Ye Feng asked.
“Of course!” Jin Qimeng nodded repeatedly.
“You are still too young to drink,” Ye Feng shook his head.
This immediately provoked strong opposition from the golden fish sisters.
“Senior Ye, we are not young.”
“We are already several hundred years old; how are we young?”
“Really, just look.”
Jin Qimeng, Jin Qihuan, and Jin Qiyun seriously said, even puffing out their chests to show they were not young.
Ye Feng laughed helplessly.
“Alright then, drink!”
He took out three more bowls, filled them with Dragonfolk Clan medicinal wine, and the group of four drank, ate grilled fish, and chatted about various topics until late into the night.
Under the bright moonlight.
Jin Qimeng and her sisters got utterly drunk, slumped over the table, and deeply fell asleep.
Whoosh!
A strong wind swept across the lake.
Ye Feng sensed something and looked over.
