Chapter 2042: Demon quelling City, Waiting for the Enemy at Leisure
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
On the beach.Ye Feng merged all the ancient cities into one sprawling Ancient City, stretching over a hundred miles along the beach. To land from the beach, one must pass through this city.
"This city shall be named Demon-quelling City."
Ye Feng named the brand-new city.
Demon-quelling naturally means suppressing the Outer Realm Evil Spirits.
Currently, Demon-quelling City is still very empty, with only Ye Feng present. Inside, there are various buildings, totaling over a hundred thousand three-story small buildings, enough for every member of the Misty Holy Sect to occupy one each.
"It’s time to notify the disciples."
Ye Feng’s consciousness entered the Void Heavenly World, and through it, he notified the sect members with great efficiency.
"Outer Battlefield Area Two?"
"The Sect Leader has made a new discovery again."
"Truly worthy of being the Sect Leader; he seems to disappear every now and then, and when he reappears, he brings us different news."
Upon learning the news, the disciples were all astonished.
Soon, tens of thousands of disciples left the sect, arriving at the entrance of this Great Thousand World’s Tengang Continent.
"Enter!"
Guarding the entrance was Huang Meng, one of the Four Dreams of Heaven and Earth, sitting cross-legged on the ground. He looked at everyone with a kind and gentle smile.
"Thank you, Heavenly Venerable Huang."
The disciples cupped their hands in respect.
Huang Meng had already reached the level of Half-Step Heavenly Venerable. Although not a powerful Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, much less a true Heavenly Venerable, he still carried the title of "Heavenly Venerable" and was qualified to receive such a title.
"Once inside, proceed directly to the Ancient Battlefield. There, you will find a time-space portal. Cross it, and you will be fine."
Huang Meng reminded them.
"Got it." The disciples nodded.
They were well-behaved and sensible. After entering the Tengang Continent, they did not disturb the natives, but under the guidance of several Immortal Emperors, they reached the Ancient Battlefield and were astounded to find the Army-Destroyer Sword Spear piercing the sky.
"A Quasi-Heavenly Venerable Divine Weapon?!"
Currently, Ye Feng’s foundation had reached the Quasi-Heavenly Venerable Level, and being the Quasi-Heavenly Venerable Divine Weapon, the Army-Destroyer Sword Spear was no longer a secret.
At this moment, it could be fully revealed.
"Yes, this is the Army-Destroyer Sword Spear. The Sect Leader once told me that he had a great relationship with the Army-Destroyer Heavenly Venerable from ancient times. Therefore, the Army-Destroyer Heavenly Venerable entrusted this Quasi-Heavenly Venerable Divine Weapon, as well as the entire Tengang Continent, to the Sect Leader, supporting him to become the Boundary Master."
Gong Qingqiu appeared and explained.
"The Army-Destroyer Heavenly Venerable knows the Sect Leader?"
The disciples were even more shocked.
Gong Qingqiu explained, "The Army-Destroyer Heavenly Venerable was the one who verified the Dao in the Second Origin Era, but it seems he reappeared a million years ago, so it’s possible he knew the Sect Leader."
In fact, she didn’t understand the real reason either.
Ye Feng had always kept this secret, unwilling for everyone to know too much about his connection with the Army-Destroyer Heavenly Venerable.
Moments later.
Everyone reached high altitude and saw a massive arch, created by Ye Feng himself, a time-space portal leading to Outer Battlefield Area Two.
"Charge!"
Among the First Generation Disciples, Qiao Jiaxi and Jia Yulan were the operation leaders for this mission. They took the lead in crossing the time-space portal, bringing tens of thousands of disciples behind them through Corridor 426 to their destination.
In the majestic and ancient Demon-quelling City.
The disciples first selected their residences and then gathered on the beach.
On a reef.
Ye Feng, carrying the Primordial Sword Embryo on his back, gazed silently at the tumultuous Cosmic Sea in the distance, not looking at the tens of thousands of Misty Holy Sect disciples standing behind him.
"Sect Leader, we’ve arrived."
Jia Yulan and Qiao Jiaxi stepped forward to report.
They hadn’t proven themselves as Half-Step Heavenly Venerables yet, so they wouldn’t venture to Outer Domain Battlefield One but instead chose to lead the group to Outer Battlefield Area Two, with orders to guard Demon-quelling City.
"From today onward, you shall stay in Demon-quelling City to cultivate, slay Outer Realm Evil Spirits, and those Abyss Clan powerhouses who have ascended from the universe."
Ye Feng spoke slowly.
His voice was calm, but these words carried significant weight, directly influencing the fate of countless powerhouses across multiple universes, akin to an invincible Divine Spirit.
"Yes!"
The disciples responded in unison, following which they were divided into a hundred teams under the leadership of Qiao Jiaxi and Jia Yulan, each team comprising hundreds of members practicing Ye Feng’s modified joint attack formations.
Currently, many disciples are at the level of Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor.
They were evenly distributed among the teams.
This allowed each team to perform the joint attack formation with ease, enough to slay a Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor, and when all teams acted together, they could suppress a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable.
Furthermore, this was just the beginning.
As more disciples achieved breakthroughs, reaching the Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor level, their own combat strength increased. When they performed the joint attack formation, a few hundred could suppress a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable.
Tens of thousands united could kill a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable.
The entire sect, combined with Ye Feng, a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable Level powerhouse, Mo Ying, Huo Yunjie, and other Half-Step Heavenly Venerable cultivators, might even stand a chance against a Heavenly Venerable.
This was Ye Feng’s plan.
He would not always be able to protect the disciples.
To stand on their own and truly deal with those top powerhouses, the disciples must learn to grow independently and master powerful techniques.
For instance, the joint attack formation.
With the formation, and as the disciples’ strength gradually increased, even without Ye Feng, they could sweep through the many powerhouses of the Cosmic Sea.
Possibly even dominate the Origin of All Things.
Soon.
In one of the cosmic passages, several Eighty-two-layered Immortal Emperors emerged, exuding an Abyss Clan aura all over their bodies. Although their appearances seemed almost human, they all had golden fur and a noticeable monkey tail.
These were the Half-Demonic Transformed Abyss Clan.
"Haha, we’ve finally ascended."
"Fellow Daoists, having ascended beyond the skies, the big shots of the Abyss Clan will surely value us highly."
"The future is bright."
These Eighty-two-layered Immortal Emperors were filled with dreams of the future.
Little did they know that the outer battlefield no longer belonged to the Abyss Clan but was guarded by the Misty Holy Sect.
"It’s the Abyss Clan’s minions, eliminate them all."
Jia Yulan ordered.
"Yes." The remaining Misty Holy Sect disciples quickly moved in to attack the Abyss Clan minions. With a wave of formation attacks, they were reduced to ashes.
Time passed slowly.
From more and more universes, cultivators broke through to the Eighty-two-layered Immortal Emperor level, ascending to Outer Battlefield Area Two, but what awaited them was the Misty Holy Sect disciples’ killing array.
In a certain lower-grade Great Universe.
Ye Feng arrived here and discovered that the Cosmic Consciousness at the level of a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable had been possessed by Abyss Clan powerhouses, continuously converting the living beings of this universe into Half-Demonic Transformed Abyss Clan, nurturing them to the Eighty-two-layered Immortal Emperor level, thus capable of ascending to Outer Battlefield Area Two.
One could say, the entire universe was sick.
It had become the backyard of the Abyss Clan.
"Intruder, you must die!"
The consciousness of this universe roared in anger.
It was no longer the previous Cosmic Consciousness, having been possessed by a God-King Level powerhouse from the Abyss Clan, thus counted as one of their own.
In fact, it is quite tough for a Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor to possess Cosmic Consciousness, but it’s different if someone helps.
Countless years ago.
The numerous Half-Step Heavenly Venerables of the Abyss Clan joined forces to suppress the consciousness of this lower-grade Great Universe, allowing a God-King level, Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor from the Abyss Clan to complete a possession.
Afterward, this God-King advanced to Half-Step Heavenly Venerable.
His strength broke through, but because he had become the cosmic consciousness, he was restrained here and couldn’t move.
In a sense, there are both advantages and disadvantages.
"For this universe, you’re the invader, aren’t you? After seizing the nest, you’re still so arrogant, truly seeking death!" Ye Feng snorted.
The next moment.
A tremendously powerful consciousness erupted, forcibly erasing the consciousness of this universe, leaving it in a muddled state without awareness.
Then, Ye Feng began to repair the universe.
He split off a strand of consciousness, which grew stronger and then merged with this universe, transforming into a new cosmic consciousness.
Of course, it didn’t possess high-grade intelligence.
It could only maintain basic cosmic operations.
Having done this, Ye Feng proceeded to other universes, following the same pattern, controlling several lower-grade Great Universes.
"Unfortunately, it didn’t succeed."
After controlling the universes, Ye Feng seized the opportunity to deduce the metamorphosis method of small universes, but found it still useless.
Reluctantly, he ceased controlling new universes.
Because, it no longer held any meaning.
Yet, the heavens never leave a pathless road.
A few days later.
Ye Feng entered a high-grade Great Universe that had already been conquered by the Abyss Clan. A terrifying doomsday war had once erupted here, causing the universe to lose balance and even the cosmic consciousness to collapse, turning into countless fragmented consciousness, barely able to maintain the current universe’s operations.
As for defeating the enemy, it was already impossible.
Swoosh!
Ye Feng tore through the void, arriving at the area where the consciousness of this high-grade Great Universe had once resided.
This place had experienced the explosion of the consciousness body.
At that time, countless powerhouses invaded this universe and instantly killed numerous beings, causing an internal imbalance. The cosmic consciousness, comparable to a Heavenly Venerable, was also restrained by a top-tier divine weapon similar to the Destroyer’s Treasure Box, unable to act.
Thus, this universe was defeated.
The cosmic consciousness was forcibly shattered into countless fragments, later barely repaired by the powerhouses of the Abyss Clan to maintain cosmic operations.
"This place has got something!"
Ye Feng stood at the site of the cosmic consciousness explosion and discovered an ancient star. Because the cosmic consciousness exploded, changes occurred at the star’s core, with its materials absorbing much of the universe’s origin, transforming into a crystal that excited Ye Feng.
[Name: Cosmic Consciousness Origin Energy Crystal]
[Grade: Cosmic Grade]
[Description: A special material randomly generated after the explosion of a high-grade Great Universe’s consciousness, containing fragments of the Great Dao. Absorbing it can promote cosmic evolution.]
[Remark: Origin Supreme Treasure]
Seeing this, Ye Feng was secretly delighted.
He quickly excavated the dark golden crystals and threw them into the small universe for absorption.
Afterward, the bottleneck of the universe’s metamorphosis weakened.
This made Ye Feng overjoyed.
He transformed into a cosmic miner, continuously excavating the nearby hard Cosmic Consciousness Origin Energy Crystals, throwing them all into the small universe to weaken his own bottleneck.
Another period of time passed.
At the end of August.
This time, Qiao Jiaxi drew the lot and returned from Outer Battlefield Area Two to the Twin Universe, defeating nine other opponents in the Heavenly Origin Sea.
"Finally verified the Dao!"
After merging the imprint, Qiao Jiaxi successfully verified the Half-Step Heavenly Venerable Dao and immediately entered the Tengang Continent, returning to Outer Battlefield Area Two to guard the Demon-quelling City.
"Junior Brother, congratulations!"
Jia Yulan was envious and also wanted to draw the lot quickly so she could go to the Heavenly Origin Sea to merge the Dao Verifying Imprint and participate in the Dao Verifying Battle.
Ye Feng didn’t want internal strife, wasting time.
So, when the Half-Step Heavenly Venerable Dao Verifying Battle commenced, only one person from the Misty Holy Sect would appear.
Of course, they could also arrange multiple Mystical Holy Sect disciples to participate in the Dao Verifying Competition, but ultimately only one person would successfully verify the Dao.
Those who failed would have to try again next time.
"Haha, who would’ve thought I’d also verify the Dao. Yu Lan Senior Sister, it should be your turn next time."
"I hope so!"
With Qiao Jiaxi, a powerful Half-Step Heavenly Venerable, present in Outer Battlefield Area Two, everyone’s mood settled, and they no longer feared foreign enemies.
"I wonder when enemies from the Cosmic Sea will come; waiting is quite annoying!"
A disciple complained.
During this time, a large group of Immortal Emperors ascended from within the universe, but they were only at the eighty-two fold Immortal Emperor Level, offering no difficulty in being killed.
"We guard the Demon-quelling City and conserve our strength, unnecessary to worry. If enemies come, we’ll eliminate them," Jia Yulan said.
"Mm, okay." The disciples nodded.
Of course, it could also be said as waiting idly for opportunities.
When enemies from the Cosmic Sea, tired from crossing half the Cosmic Sea, arrived at this battlefield, they could be met with a crushing blow by the always-resting and healing Misty Holy Sect disciples, inflicting severe injuries.
Meanwhile, in a high-grade Great Universe.
Recently, Ye Feng had been continuously absorbing Cosmic Consciousness Origin Energy Crystals, having traversed more than a dozen high-grade Great Universes, reducing the small universe’s bottleneck to about thirty percent of its initial level, a considerable gain.
Afterward, the Cosmic Consciousness Origin Energy Crystals became useless, continuing to absorb them couldn’t weaken the bottleneck further.
"Now the cosmic bottleneck isn’t too strong; just one catalyst is needed for metamorphosis and evolution."
"But, what is that catalyst?"
Ye Feng pondered for a long time, without finding an answer.
Reluctantly, he returned to the Demon-quelling City.
"Oh, Jiaxi has also verified the Dao, very good, from now on, you are the City Lord of Demon-quelling City." Ye Feng patted Qiao Jiaxi’s shoulder, appointing him.
"Ah?" Qiao Jiaxi was bewildered.
He became the City Lord of Demon-quelling City!
Was it so nonchalant?
"Unwilling?" Ye Feng looked at Qiao Jiaxi, who had grown tall and handsome, realizing that this guy’s physique had become even stronger.
"Sect Leader, I am willing!" Qiao Jiaxi immediately clasped his hands, expressing his willingness to become the City Lord of Demon-quelling City.
"Very good, time for you to shine." Ye Feng pointed toward the distant sea surface.
Everyone looked over immediately.
Whoosh!
A large wave, where there was originally no one, rose up, from which dozens of figures emerged, led by three Half-Step Heavenly Venerables.
Their eyes were sharp, their aura fierce, clearly not easy to deal with.
"Why is there only one city left?"
This group of Abyss Clan powerhouses landed on the beach, shocked to find that the original ancient cities had vanished, and in their place stood a never-before-seen sinister city.
On the city wall.
Qiao Jiaxi stepped forward, with Jia Yulan as the Deputy City Lord, standing alongside him. On the walls, there were fifty thousand disciples of the Misty Holy Sect, all high-level Immortal Emperors.
"Who are you?"
The leading Half-Step Heavenly Venerable of the Abyss Clan locked eyes with the only Half-Step Heavenly Venerable in the Demon-quelling City, Qiao Jiaxi.
