The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

"Can it repel the enemy?" Ye Feng was astonished.

At this moment, the blood-colored armored warriors were still frantically attacking, each blood-colored long spear capable of piercing through the defenses of any Thirty-third Layer Immortal Emperor, enough to kill them.

Yet even so, as they struck the void near Ye Feng, they all automatically shattered.

Behind the scenes, the other shadows were dumbfounded.

"This child cannot be allowed to live!"

"Once he grows up, he will surely break the deadlock and disrupt the balance. We must nip him in the bud."

"Easier said than done, you go?"

"This..."

The shadows fell silent once again.

At this moment, Ye Feng held the Ancient Heroic Spirit Commander's Token, realizing it felt a bit hot, as if it was about to revive. Wise as he was, a little thought made him understand.

"Ancient Heroic Spirit Army, march out!"

Ye Feng roared, raising the Ancient Heroic Spirit Commander's Token high. His whole body was enveloped in golden Ancient Heroic Spirit Power, and the token in his hand gradually disappeared, transforming into a set of purple-gold armor, exuding nobility.

Behind him, countless portals of light appeared.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

From behind the portals came the sounds of war cries, shaking the entire starry sky world as if it would tremble three times. Following that, billions of the Ancient Heroic Spirit Army charged out.

They stood behind Ye Feng, each clad in golden armor, perfectly aligned.

This was the true Heavenly Soldiers and Generals!

All their auras combined into one, adding to Ye Feng, giving him an indescribable majesty. Wherever his gaze landed, evil vanished!

"What is this?!" The blood-colored armored warriors were terrified, their raised blood-colored spears frozen in mid-air.

"Kill!" Ye Feng shouted.

In the next moment, countless Ancient Heroic Spirit Army soldiers raised their weapons and attacked, ignoring the blood-colored warriors' barrier of laws, continuously cleaving their blades, spears, and halberds upon them.

In an instant, the blood-colored armored warriors were reduced to ashes.

"Pff!"

In a mysterious region of the North Pole Star System, the sound of someone spitting out a mouthful of blood rang out, followed by endless groans and screams, as if undergoing torment.

"This person is done for."

"Rescue him?"

"He's already in the middle of a decline calamity, extremely dangerous, yet dared to act recklessly against Ye Feng. Now he's suffered an assault by the Ancient Heroic Spirit Army; he's finished. Even if he survives, he will be severely weakened."

"Quick, conceal our presence!"

The remaining shadows discussed among themselves and quickly fell silent, completely hiding their presence so that even someone as powerful as Ye Feng couldn't detect them.

In the starry sky.

Ye Feng stood clad in purple-golden armor, with billions of gold-armored Ancient Heroic Spirit Army soldiers standing behind him, resembling a purple-gold nebula spanning the sky, shaking the world.

"Sect Master Ye is formidable!"

"What kind of technique is this? It could instantly obliterate the blood-colored armored warrior that made my soul tremble."

Countless cultivators trembled all over.

In no time, an overwhelming amount of prestige surged in, causing the Misty Sect's prestige points to skyrocket from about fifty trillion, racing towards a hundred trillion.

"Conspirator, where are you hiding?"

Ye Feng paid no heed to the prestige points but instead led the army towards the North Pole Star System. Yet, even as his divine sense scanned each star, he couldn't detect any trace of those peculiar conspirators.

The opposition had hidden for countless years, and their greatest strength was concealing themselves.

Even Ye Feng could not find them.

At this time, the entire North Pole Star System was extremely quiet.

All living beings raised their heads, holding their breath, just watching Ye Feng lead his army to sweep through the starry sky, treating him as their faith.

Half a day later.

Ye Feng still couldn't find the conspirators and could only sigh, saying, "Retreat!"

As soon as he spoke, countless portals of light appeared behind the billions of Ancient Heroic Spirit Army soldiers. They stepped into them and quickly vanished.

The purple-gold armor on Ye Feng's body swiftly disappeared, reconsolidating into the Ancient Heroic Spirit Commander's Token in his palm.

With this, the battle subsided.

"Ye Feng, what happened just now?" The Ancient Holy God Overlord came stepping through the air, asking solemnly.

Ye Feng asked, "Before, when Heavenly Emperor Lingtian's avatar came to the Shenzhou Continent, he mentioned the 'shadow' and 'conspirator'; do you remember?"

The Ancient Holy God nodded and said, "I remember... Do you mean, what we just saw was the shadow?"

Ye Feng said seriously, "Not only the shadow but also the so-called conspirators, a group of pitiable worms who only know how to hide behind the scenes and plot, trying to jump out of the chessboard."

The Ancient Holy God was enlightened.

"Senior, I have other things to handle; please keep this confidential for now. After a while, when I've organized my thoughts, I will naturally come to you." Ye Feng said solemnly.

"No problem." The Ancient Holy God nodded.

The next moment, Ye Feng returned to Shenzhou, then entered the small universe, and sat under the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree, opening the "The Path Scripture", a reward from the sect's mission.

Seeing its contents, Ye Feng's expression drastically changed.

"It's an introduction to the Hidden Realm!"

Ye Feng kept flipping through it, and the surprise in his eyes grew more intense. Then, seeing the introduction about beyond the Thirty-third Layer Immortal Emperor, he finally understood.

"So, that's how it is!"

Ye Feng put down the "The Path Scripture".

This ancient book was only a dozen pages, not much content. Strictly speaking, this was just the preface of "The Path Scripture", not the full version.

The complete version of "The Path Scripture" contained the entire chain of law order. Any cultivator with decent aptitude could rely on its content to cultivate to all hundred layers of the Hundred Tribulations Realm.

But now, the "The Path Scripture" was just the preface.

There was only an introduction, no subsequent laws.

Otherwise, with the complete "The Path Scripture" alone, Ye Feng could quickly perfect all the laws in his small universe and charge towards the first hundred layers of the Creation Realm.

Ye Feng recalled the content of "Dao Scripture: Preface", murmuring softly:

"Countless years ago."

"Between the Heavenly Dao Realm and the Immortal Realm, there was an unnamed realm, divided into a hundred layers based on the degree and potency of comprehended laws."

"For every one percent of laws comprehended and mastered, after overcoming a tribulation, one could be promoted by one layer."

"Between the First Layer and Thirty-third Layer, with each promotion, not only would one's laws increase by one percent, but their mana would also grow. By reaching the Thirty-third Layer, one's mana would reach its peak."

"Starting from the Thirty-fourth Layer, it becomes a watershed."

"Upon advancing to the Thirty-fourth Layer, one's mana would no longer increase. Only the number of laws within would rise by one percent, but one's power would still multiply."

"This implies that from the Thirty-fourth Layer Immortal Emperor onward, future cultivation no longer requires spiritual energy, immortal qi, elixirs, or spirit stones."

"What they need is laws!"

"From advancing to the Thirty-fourth Layer onward, every once in a while, one would fall into 'decline calamity,' which is a penalty for a shallow understanding of laws."

"If one's comprehension of the laws is decent, then even if they encounter decline calamity, they can swiftly pass through it without any risk."

"So, are those conspirators hiding in the ancient solar system of the starry sky world to seek refuge?"

In "Dao Scripture: Preface", Ye Feng also saw the reason why the shadows obstructed other cultivators from breaking through to above the Thirty-fourth Layer.

"The universe's laws are finite."

"If a cultivator breaks through to above the Thirty-fourth Layer, it will bring more pressure to the universe, thereby suppressing the laws of other cultivators above the Thirty-fourth Layer, making it difficult for them to break through."

"Therefore, to prevent their breakthroughs from becoming difficult, the conspirators transformed into shadows, obstructing other Immortal Emperors from breaking through to above the Thirty-fourth Layer."

Ye Feng understood it all.

However, "Dao Scripture: Preface" also had an interesting record: Refining the Realm Source can help one quickly endure the decline calamity and prevent their laws from being suppressed by other cultivators.

"No wonder the Realm Source was divided by countless experts; this is the most crucial reason."

Ye Feng breathed a long sigh of relief.

Owning a vast amount of Realm Source purple gold, he didn't have to worry about others suppressing his laws.

This was considered good news.

"I have to inform the Ancient Holy God and Heavenly Emperor Lingtian so they can prepare early."

Ye Feng left the small universe.

As for "Dao Scripture: Preface", he left it under the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree.

After Ye Feng's departure, the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree noticed the strange ancient book, its body shook, and a tea leaf fell onto the surface of the book and was absorbed into it.

Then, a wisp of purple aura emerged!

This scene went unnoticed by Ye Feng!
