In the cemetery.

Ye Feng continued to pour wine for the Old Sect Leader, burning a large batch of paper money, paper mansions, and various paper-made elixirs and ancient divine skill books as offerings.

"Senior Brother, I’ve sent you some money, along with plenty of mansions and classic books. You, in the spirit world, ought to bless our Misty Holy Sect! If possible, give me a dream tonight with a few Heavenly Venerable Divine Abilities."

"Hehehe!"

Ye Feng couldn’t help but tease, knowing only he was aware that the Life Heavenly Venerable of the Old Sect Leader wasn’t completely dead and might resurrect, thus he wasn’t at all sorrowful.

"Wuwuwu..."

However, Li Jiaojiao, Shi Lei, Huo Yunjie, and other senior disciples didn’t know the Old Sect Leader was still there, each crying their hearts out, their eyes red.

"Don’t cry, don’t cry."

Ye Feng patted Li Jiaojiao’s head, and also rubbed Huo Yunjie and Shi Lei’s heads, smiling brightly.

"Wow, Sect Master Uncle, you’re still smiling!"

Shi Lei cried even harder.

"Haha, our Misty Holy Sect has become so powerful now, if our Senior Brother knew, he would be comforted, so you all needn’t be too sad."

Ye Feng patted Shi Lei.

Soon, everyone continued the worship, as over a hundred thousand members placed their incense in front of the grave, forming a large area of incense smoke, rising smoothly.

"Senior Brother, if you are aware in the afterlife, may you continue to bless us!"

Ye Feng said once more.

Afterwards, they ignited paper treasures and also set off firecrackers nearby, going on for a full half-day.

"Time to eat!" Ye Feng waved his hand.

Over ten thousand members sat down on the ground, mostly eight to a table, with fragrant glutinous rice and other prepared food offerings placed on the grassy area.

Then, they began to eat.

An outdoor picnic during the Qingming Festival, although the ingredients were similar to usual, had a special taste and feel, leaving them long for more.

Especially glutinous rice made from Purple Maple Ancient Tree leaves, after eating, the sect members entered an Enlightenment State, and their cultivation level advanced rapidly.

In the afternoon, the sky remained clear.

Ye Feng and his party left the cemetery, returning to their respective places of cultivation to close-seclude and break through their realms.

"Sect Master Uncle!"

At this moment, Huo Yunjie came over, catching up with Ye Feng, who was heading towards the peak of Misty Peak, and Shi Lei and others also came over.

"Do you have something to discuss?" Ye Feng asked with a smile.

"Yes." Huo Yunjie nodded.

"For proving the Dao?" Ye Feng guessed.

"Yes." Huo Yunjie nodded, "Sect Master Uncle, we plan to begin at the end of this month according to the internal draw sequence to participate in the struggle for proving the Dao."

Ye Feng nodded and said, "Alright, regardless if you aim to prove the Dao of a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable or Half-Step Heavenly Venerable, I support your ideas and methods."

As he spoke, he opened the task panel.

[Task Six: The Struggle for Proving the Dao]

[Details: Please have the Sect Leader or other members of the Misty Sect participate in the struggle for proving the Dao and successfully prove the Dao to become a strong existence surpassing a hundred-layered Immortal Emperor.]

[Half-Step Heavenly Venerable: 0/10]

[Quasi-Heavenly Venerable: 0/3]

"Whether you prove the Dao of a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable or Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, I support whatever you choose. But, I hope at least ten of you can prove the Dao of a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable, and at least three can prove the Dao of a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable. Can this be done?"

Ye Feng surveyed the surroundings.

There were dozens of disciples present, some of the First Generation, and the rest being elite among the Second and Third Generations and beyond.

For example, Dong Huangxiao.

"Yes!" Everyone said in unison.

Everyone present, weren’t they all Invincible Supremes?

The proving of the Dao of a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable was uncertain, but the proving of the Dao of a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable was definitely achievable. As for Mo Ying, Qiao Jiaxi, Long Tianxing, and others, they aimed directly for the position of Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, seeking to prove the Dao of a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable directly.

"Seeing your high spirits, this sect master is very gratified. Alright, continue cultivating!"

Ye Feng waved his hand.

"As you command, sect master." The crowd dispersed.

Having sent off the disciples, Ye Feng returned to the peak of Misty Peak, sitting beside the Moon Reflection Divine Spring, he scooped up a handful of clear, sweet spring water and tasted it carefully.

"It’s truly sweet!"

This water, purified by the Heavenly Dao Green Lotus, was itself a condensation of the essence of heaven and earth. A mere mortal drinking a sip could extend their life by a thousand years, cleanse away superficialities, and gain a Spiritual Body from their cultivation physique, thus putting them in the category of a talent.

"The fertile land of Shenzhou should be even better."

Ye Feng muttered lowly, with a wave of his hand, he cast a large amount of Moon Reflection Divine Spring water out, gradually spreading across the entire Shenzhou Continent, absorbed by countless people.

From then on, mortals were free from disease.

The talented ones found their talents even stronger.

"Thank you, Sect Master Ye!"

"Immortal Emperor Ye is really a great benefactor!"

The people of Shenzhou Continent were all grateful, offering a great amount of incense power to Ye Feng.

Later, Ye Feng sat on the peak.

The Myriad Spirits Treasure Vase appeared from nowhere, pouring out hundreds of shiny crystals, each a Law Origin Crystal of a hundred-layered Immortal Emperor level.

Any cultivator, upon refining one, could rise from nothing to a hundred-layered Immortal Emperor.

"Over 500, not bad!"

Ye Feng rejoiced, distributing these Law Origin Crystals among the sect members, mostly to disciples, some to elders and spiritual beasts to use.

Then, they commenced their closed-door cultivation.

As of today, the Misty Holy Sect had several hundred figures at the hundred-layered Immortal Emperor Realm. Once this batch of members came out of seclusion, the number of hundred-layered Immortal Emperors would exceed a thousand.

This news was shocking enough to amaze the world.

Yet, Ye Feng didn’t feel proud, only thinking it acceptable. After all, with him, a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable-level powerhouse guarding the sect, cultivating over a thousand hundred-layered Immortal Emperors wasn’t a difficult task, but rather quite normal.

"We are still far behind!"

Ye Feng muttered thusly.

The last time entering the Outer Domain Battlefield, Silver Eyebrow Venerable and others led an army of billions of Immortal Emperors, among which the hundred-layered Immortal Emperors exceeded tens of thousands.

Refining them would yield a large amount of Law Origins.

"I really hope the creatures of the Cosmic Sea continue to invade the Outer Domain Battlefield, so I can obtain more Law Origin Crystals to enhance the disciples’ cultivation levels."

Ye Feng chuckled.

As the disciples grew stronger, so did he.

Helping the disciples was akin to helping himself.

"Mo Ying, come here for a moment." Ye Feng took out the Sky Annihilation Dagger, sitting at the peak awaiting.

The Sky Annihilation Dagger was a reward from Task Five.

Once used, it could forcibly destroy the Divine Soul of a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable level powerhouse, degrading their realm to a hundred-layered Immortal Emperor level, heavily injuring them.

Then, defeating them wouldn’t be difficult.

"Sect master, you called for me?" Before long, Mo Ying arrived before Ye Feng.

"Here, take this."

Ye Feng handed the Sky Annihilation Dagger to Mo Ying, explaining its grade and function.

"This is too precious!" Mo Ying dared not accept.

"Precious? Not really, and it’s particularly suitable for you, isn’t it? After all, your combat strength is exceptionally high at the same rank. If you encounter a formidable Half-Step Heavenly Venerable, you can use the Sky Annihilation Dagger to degrade their cultivation level, then rely on your own combat strength to counter-kill. I am giving the Sky Annihilation Dagger to you to reserve for critical moments."

Ye Feng said with deep meaning.

"I understand, master." Mo Ying nodded, realizing Ye Feng’s intentions, taking the Sky Annihilation Dagger.

"It’s time to head to the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom."

Ye Feng gave Gong Qingqiu some instructions, then went alone to the Purple Garden in the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom, where he found the recuperating Purple Fire Monarch.

"Senior, I’m back again."

"Ah, it’s little friend Ye Feng. Don’t call me senior; you’re a quasi-Heavenly Venerable powerhouse now. In the future, we should consider ourselves equals."

"Alright, senior."

"..."

After some awkward small talk, Ye Feng took out a grain of Purple-Gold Sand, the reward from Task Five, and then retrieved the Primordial Sword Embryo from his back, asking the Purple Fire Monarch to refine it.

"Leave it to me, it’ll be done in seven days."

"Then I leave it in your capable hands."

Ye Feng waited in the starry sky.

With just seven days, he didn’t do anything else but took out the Dust Fate Pill, the reward from Task Five, examined it carefully, but didn’t immediately consume it.

Seven days later.

The Purple-Gold Sand had been refined into the Primordial Sword Embryo by the Purple Fire Monarch, enhancing its toughness, durability, and sharpness to some extent.

"Friend Ye Feng, it’s done."

The Purple Fire Monarch handed the scorching Primordial Sword Embryo back to Ye Feng, his expression neutral.

"Thanks!"

Ye Feng sheathed the sword, cupped his hands in thanks, and then moved to a stretch of starry sky outside the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom. After a moment of silence, he chose to consume the Dust Fate Pill.

The pill went down smoothly.

It was like eating a gummy candy, very sweet.

Buzz!

Ye Feng suddenly felt a jolt in his mind and immediately looked toward a distant section of the starry sky, walking in that direction until he reached an ancient life star, only fifty thousand miles in diameter.

There wasn’t even an Immortal Emperor here.

Moreover, the strongest person was only a newly-advanced Human Immortal, with average strength.

"After consuming the Dust Fate Pill, you will be guided to a place most suited to you, where you can live for a while and are guaranteed to succeed in enlightenment once."

"So, is this the place?"

Ye Feng stood on an ancient road.

This road led to an ancient city, approximately ten miles in both length and width, with dilapidated walls only a few meters high, which any martial artist with a bit of agility could easily jump over.

Even cultivators were rare here.

"The strongest are... Element Gathering Realm?!"

"Truly a weak bunch!"

Ye Feng couldn’t help but complain.

The known cultivation realms are divided into Qi Refinement, Element Gathering, Spirit Sea, Divine Origin, Void Break, Demi-Immortal, Human Immortal, Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, Immortal Venerable, Immortal Emperor, Half-Step Heavenly Venerable, Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, Heavenly Venerable, among others.

Of course, before Qi Refinement, there is Gazing Breath.

But, that’s a foundational stage, not much different from mortals, and doesn’t really count as a cultivator.

As for the Element Gathering Realm, it’s really too weak!

Ye Feng didn’t expect that after taking the Dust Fate Pill, he would be guided by his heart to this ancient little city, wondering what he was supposed to do here.

Immediately, he stepped into the city.

The people here were simple and honest. Occasionally, cultivators would sprint down the streets, while others sword-flew at low altitudes. The streets were bustling.

Ye Feng enjoyed this peaceful life.

He wandered around the city before finally choosing an old tea shop, which he took over, transforming himself into a tea shop owner.

"Young man, you look so young and you’re already the owner of a tea shop, quite impressive."

A passing young woman laughed coquettishly.

She was a widow.

Quite flirtatious.

This woman actually winked at Ye Feng in public and even attempted to enter the tea shop to have an in-depth conversation with him.

Ye Feng naturally declined.

"Hmph, no sense of romance."

The flirtatious young woman hummed, pulled up her top that had slipped below her fragrant shoulders, and sashayed away from Ye Feng’s tea shop.

A few elderly people came into the shop.

They drank tea while chatting with Ye Feng, giving him some well-meaning advice.

"Young man, Widow Wang is cursed. It’s said she just married the eldest son of the Wang family, but due to nightly revelries, the Wang family’s eldest son died of depletion in less than three months. Since then, Widow Wang has been having affairs all over, involved with many ruffians. You should keep your distance."

An elderly man with white hair advised earnestly.

"Is that so? Thank you for the warning, I won’t have anything to do with her. After all, I’m an upright and promising young man with principles."

Ye Feng nodded but was unsurprised because there were many such women in the world.

They exist everywhere.

For example, the Dao companion of the Mysterious God, the Empress, had an affair with the First Divine General of the Mysterious God Realm, and later even tried to seduce Ye Feng, but he killed her.

In the following days.

Ye Feng ran the tea shop and once, on a certain night, personally witnessed Widow Wang enter a room with the owner of the neighboring shop to engage in illicit activities.

Ye Feng couldn’t be bothered to care.

Afterward, Widow Wang, seeing the handsome Ye Feng, licked her lips and lunged at him, clearly unsatisfied with the neighboring shop owner’s service.

"Get lost!"

Ye Feng directly kicked Widow Wang, sending her flying a dozen meters, but didn’t hurt her.

He was there to gain enlightenment, not to kill.

"Oh, turns out you’re a cultivator." Widow Wang looked at Ye Feng in surprise. If it wasn’t a cultivator, how could a mortal woman be kicked that far and only sustain a fall without injuries?

After that, Widow Wang didn’t dare provoke Ye Feng again.

However, whenever she engaged in illicit activities with other men, she always thought of Ye Feng.

Under the night sky, in the tea shop.

Ye Feng sat in a rocking chair, lost in thought.

"Desire? Indeed, Widow Wang is a temptation of desire. However, this desire is too lowly to attract me. After all, my heart is as firm as concrete, mere common powder and rouge can’t tempt me or shake my Dao heart."

Ye Feng murmured to himself.

He was now seeking to create the Desire Law, and after consuming the Dust Fate Pill, it would surely aid in creating the Desire Law. Thinking about it now, the flirtatious Widow Wang in the ancient city was a kind of test.

But, this test was far from enough!

Ye Feng’s heart remained unperturbed.

Yet, the next day, things changed.

Ye Feng was brewing tea when he noticed a figure that tugged at his heartstrings entering the tea shop.

It was a petite and charming girl.

She carried a bamboo basket filled with various tea leaves, donned a pink long dress that fluttered as if she had descended from the heavens, with a cultivation level at the Qi Refining Realm.

No one accompanied her.

At this moment, the girl looked at Ye Feng, giving him a gentle and sweet smile: "Tea shop owner, I heard this is a tea shop. I have some tea leaves, care to take a look?"

As she spoke, her eyes curved into crescents and she leaned her body forward, looking sweet and playful.

The girl’s face was indeed beautiful.

But beauty alone couldn’t attract or sway Ye Feng. However, she bore a striking resemblance to someone.

"Yu Jie!"

Seeing the girl in the pink dress, Ye Feng couldn’t help but exclaim, experiencing a huge emotional upheaval.
