Chapter 186: Ji Ziling’s Shock, Clan Leader’s Grand Ennoblement Ceremony

“Divine Spirit, what is that?”
Ji Ziling thought hard, but with her current worldview, she simply couldn’t understand why a gigantic ancient tree would shrink into a verdant treasure bead.
“That is a Muhua Crystal, containing the power of the wood element from the five elements. It’s very pure. Combined with the other four types of element crystals, one can refine a supreme-grade spiritual artifact, with astonishing power,” Ye Feng explained, expanding Ji Ziling’s horizon.
“Let’s go, leave this world,” Ye Feng prepared to leave.
At that moment, however, he discovered a square metal piece in the deep pit where the ancient tree had grown. He immediately picked it up with Heroic Spirit Power.
Previously, Ye Feng had obtained a piece each from Heixuan Gate and the Tiger General’s Underground Treasury. Now that he had acquired another one, he discovered a huge secret when he pieced the three metal fragments together.
It was actually a treasure map!
But, the map had strange patterns and characters on it, which Ye Feng couldn’t understand at all. Ji Ziling, on the other hand, exclaimed with wide eyes, “It’s the language of the gods!”
“You understand it?” Ye Feng looked at Ji Ziling in surprise.
“Every High Priest in the ancient town understands it. Apart from learning ordinary script, we also learn important Divine Runes that can be used to lay out special Divine Rune formations,” Ji Ziling explained.
She found it odd. Ye Feng was also a Divine Spirit, so why did he seem not to understand?
Could it be that the language among Divine Spirits is not uniform?
Ji Ziling began to speculate.
What she didn’t know was that this was not the language of the gods at all, but ordinary Array Patterns and Array Symbols.
“You analyze what’s on it,” Ye Feng handed the assembled metal pieces to Ji Ziling.
After examining it for a moment, Ji Ziling said, “It says that at the end of the Three Thousand Realms, there is a special Divine Mountain. Those destined to solve its mystery may obtain the divine treasure.”
Ye Feng’s expression became alert.
He silently took out the map.
“There is a place here that can be called a Divine Mountain. Follow me,” Ye Feng located a lone peak marked with the character for “divine” on the edge of the Three Thousand Realms.
Whoosh!
The two tore through the air and set off at full speed.
Half an hour later.
Ye Feng and Ji Ziling reached their destination.
This was a solitary peak rising 3,000 meters high, reaching straight for the sky, resembling a divine sword that splits the heavens, but it was exceptionally steep. Apart from flying, it was simply impossible to ascend.
Standing at the peak, one could have a panoramic view of the main world of the Three Thousand Realms.
Ye Feng stood suspended in the air and found that the summit was merely a ten-meter-wide platform, the winds were strong, and it was dangerous. Even an Element Gathering Realm cultivator, without the protection of the Wind Spirit Pearl, would be swept away by the peculiar tornado.
“Divine Spirit, I’ve found it,” Ji Ziling pointed to a groove on the summit, embedding the three metal pieces, and immediately a chessboard rose up.
On the board was a chess game that hadn’t been finished.
“Go? I don’t know how to play!” Ye Feng was on the verge of tears. Was he going to miss out on the divine treasure just like that?
But just when Ye Feng was about to cover his face with his hands and awkwardly leave the scene, he noticed Ji Ziling kneeling before the chessboard, starting the game.
Ten minutes later.
Crack!
The chessboard collapsed, revealing a metal box underneath.
“Damn, so the divine treasure was hidden beneath the chessboard after all. Had I known, I would’ve directly used Power Breaks Ten Thousand Laws,” Ye Feng was slightly annoyed. If he had used a strand of Wind Element Spirit Energy, he would surely have been able to split open the mountaintop. Why bother playing chess?
“Divine Spirit, I’ve found it,” Ji Ziling held up the small metal box, less than a foot in length and width, and after opening it, found two ancient books inside.
“The Strongest Array Foundation and the Heavenly Origin Nullification Technique!” Ye Feng was surprised as he turned the title page.
The first book was about the basics of formations. Once mastered, one could have the strongest Array Foundation, making the learning of higher-level array formations much quicker.
The second was an Auxiliary Cultivation Method. Once mastered, it could negate external shocks, greatly strengthening one’s defense.
“This Heavenly Origin Nullification Technique wouldn’t happen to be an Array Master’s life-saving Cultivation Technique, right…” Ye Feng thought to himself.
“Divine Spirit, I’m so cold!” Ji Ziling noticed that it had suddenly started to snow heavily around them, threatening to cover the entire Divine Mountain in bone-chilling coldness, and even the Wind Spirit Pearl couldn’t withstand it.
“Let’s go.” Ye Feng took Ji Ziling and quickly flew away from the Divine Mountain.
Boom!
The next moment, the earth shook, and the entire Divine Mountain sank into the ground, covered by a thick layer of snow, as if it had never existed.
“Is this a divine miracle?”
Ji Ziling was immensely shocked as she watched all this unfold.
The mountain stood at 3,000 meters tall, weighing who knows how many tens of millions of pounds, yet it disappeared just like that.
Ye Feng was also deeply astonished.
Such a feat was no longer something that could be achieved by the Element Gathering Realm, and in his view, even the Spirit Sea Realm would find it difficult to accomplish such a task. Only the Divine Origin Realm, reputed as a Great Power, could achieve all this.
He checked the time, there was still about a day left.
“We should leave,” Ye Feng said.
Unwilling to delay, he gathered the two ancient books and sped towards the portal of the Three Thousand Realms with Ji Ziling.
Finally, under Ji Ziling’s terrified gaze, Ye Feng led her straight into the cold rock wall, appearing in a slightly hot grand hall.
Long Jiu, Long Si, and several other Elders were waiting anxiously. Seeing Ye Feng emerge, they were overjoyed.
“Ah, Sect Master Ye, you’re finally back. If you hadn’t returned, the portal to the Three Thousand Realms would have closed,” Long Jiu sighed with relief, promptly noticing Ji Ziling, and his eyes widened, “So it turns out Sect Master Ye re-entered the Three Thousand Realms to find a Dao companion. It’s just that the age seems a bit young…”
“What nonsense, she’s the new Disciple I’ve taken on!” Ye Feng glared.
Long Jiu’s face was instantly filled with embarrassment.
Ji Ziling stood to the side, lips tightly pursed, her worldview once again turned upside down.
She had believed the main world of the Three Thousand Realms to be vast enough, but unexpectedly, passing through a rock wall could lead her into an entirely different world.
“Let’s go, I, the Sect Leader, will show you the outside world,” said Ye Feng as he walked ahead.
Ji Ziling followed behind, breathing deeply.
Before leaving the Three Thousand Realms, she had heard Ye Feng mention more than once that the world beyond was truly vast, almost boundlessly so, shattering the worldview she had built up over the past decade.
And now, on the verge of seeing that outside world for herself, Ji Ziling felt both anticipation and trepidation.
Ten minutes later.
On the ground.
Ji Ziling stood next to Ye Feng, slowly rising into the air, looking at the Shenzhou Continent that grew larger and larger until its edges vanished from sight, her eyes brimming with shock.
A frog in a well!
This thought abruptly came to her.
It turned out that the place where she had lived before was really just the tiny plot of land Ye Feng had referred to, and beyond it, there lay a vast and endless world.
“There are people beyond people, heavens beyond heavens!” Ji Ziling repeated this saying to herself, and her mindset began to change slowly.
“Sect Leader, you’ve finally returned,” Long Tianxing used the Light Body Technique to rise into the air from the ground, approaching Ye Feng and Ji Ziling, his eyes widening as he looked at Ji Ziling, “Is this the junior sister that Long Jiu Elder and you mentioned?”
Looking at Long Tianxing with silver hair and blue eyes, who could also fly in the air, Ji Ziling was taken aback.
Could this younger brother, who was even younger than her, also be a Divine Spirit?
Ye Feng guessed Ji Ziling’s thoughts and explained, “This is Long Tianxing, an outer sect disciple of the Misty Sect in the seventh level of Qi Refinement.”
“Qi Refinement seventh level… What is that?” Ji Ziling was still unfamiliar with the process of cultivation, there were many things she didn’t know, and ever since she came to the Shenzhou Continent, she felt the entire world had changed, requiring some time to adapt slowly.
“It’s a realm in the path of cultivation. I will explain it in detail when we return to Misty Peak,” Ye Feng paused, then looked at Long Tianxing and spoke, “This is Ji Ziling, your future junior sister.”
Long Tianxing revealed a pure and flawless smile, “Welcome, Junior Sister Ziling, haha, from now on, Jia Xi won’t be the youngest anymore.”
Ye Feng said with a smile, “Alright, now that things are almost settled, we should prepare to return to the sect.”
“Sect Leader, are we leaving in such a hurry?” Long Tianxing was taken aback, “My father said that tomorrow is his Clan Leader enthronement ceremony, can’t we go back after that?”
“Your father is going to be enthroned as Clan Leader?” Ye Feng raised an eyebrow.
“Yes, it’s the tradition of our Dragonfolk Clan that only those with Supreme Grade bloodlines can assume the position of Clan Leader. There hasn’t been a new Clan Leader for decades, but now that my father has returned, the Great Elder said that he will be enthroned tomorrow, reaching the peak of his life,” said Long Tianxing with a beaming expression.
Clan Leader?
Supreme Grade bloodline?
Ji Ziling felt she was learning new terms, but still, she had no idea what they meant.
“Then fine, we’ll return after the enthronement ceremony tomorrow.” Ye Feng was also curious to see the culinary delights of the Dragonfolk Clan and decided to stay, so he could freeload on food and drinks.
When leaving, perhaps he could even take some with him…
Under the curtain of night.
Ye Feng and Ji Ziling stayed in a small courtyard.
“So, that Elder Brother Long is the son of the future Clan Leader of this ancient town. If he were in our place, he would be a prince, a very prestigious identity,” Ji Ziling murmured to herself as she read and learned.
Ye Feng sat in a lounge chair, rather bored.
Ji Ziling, however, didn’t mind.
For the first time exposed to the outside world, she had gathered a pile of books describing worldviews, and by candlelight, she read and studied through the night, becoming more fascinated the more she read.
The following day.
The Clan Leader’s enthronement ceremony went smoothly.
Ye Feng got his wish and sat at a table with the children, observing the few little kids next to him with silver hair and blue eyes who were curiously staring at him.
On the high platform.
Long Yuanqing entered the Dragon Transformation Form and held a staff that symbolized the position of Clan Leader, accepting the Great Elder’s coronation and successfully putting on the Golden Crown.
“Congratulations, Clan Leader!”
The Dragonfolk Clan’s people bowed one after another.
Ye Feng sat on a stool, propping up his chin with his hand, eyeing the still empty table in hunger as his stomach growled. Ji Ziling, sitting at the next table, was still engrossed in reading, her eyes filled with the glow of wisdom.
“So, the so-called Divine Spirits are but a realm. This means, in this world, there are no real Divine Spirits. The Divine Spirits are just people who are stronger,” Ji Ziling’s worldview was subject to a devastating blow.
There are no Divine Spirits in this world!
The mythological tales of the ancient town were false; the descending of Divine Spirits to save the people were also false.
“If Divine Spirits won’t save the world, I will protect it!”
Ji Ziling closed the book.
Her heart began to reconstruct a grander worldview.
