Chapter 2067: The One Beneath the Abyss

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Bottom of the abyss, Holy Temple.

The atmosphere at the scene was somewhat dead silent.

The Yellow Demon Heavenly King never expected that Ye Feng, whom he greatly feared, would suddenly appear here.

He had never seen Ye Feng in person.

Today is the first meeting between the two sides.

However, the Yellow Demon Heavenly King had seen Ye Feng’s three-dimensional projection and felt the aura simulated by his subordinates, so he could recognize him at a glance.

"I didn’t expect you would hide here!" Ye Feng looked at the Yellow Demon Heavenly King and said with a smile.

He hadn’t seen the Yellow Demon Heavenly King either.

However, while fighting the Master of the Abyss, he traced through time and space, observing the other’s past, and had already learned about the existence of the green, red, purple, and yellow kings.

"It is impossible for you to be Ye Feng; no creature from within the universe could appear here!" The Yellow Demon Heavenly King stared at Ye Feng, full of disbelief.

"He is actually Ye Feng?"

In this Holy Temple, there are quite a few half-step Heavenly Venerables, all staring at Ye Feng as if facing a great enemy.

During this time, the Yellow Demon Heavenly King had declared himself emperor, changed his name to Yellow Demon Emperor, and invaded numerous lower-ranked Great Universe and cosmic sea races, accumulating countless energies before returning to the abyss to cultivate new Abyss Demons.

He had plans for billions of armies in the years to come.

However, as soon as the current army expanded to ten million, Ye Feng found them.

This matter was heart-wrenching.

"Why is it impossible for me to be Ye Feng? Is it because you think I couldn’t come here?" Ye Feng said, laughed, and folded his arms. "Sadly, by mistake, I ended up in the cosmic sea and let you down."

"Escape!"

The Yellow Demon Heavenly King turned to leave, not daring to fight the terrifying Ye Feng, especially since this person could severely injure the Master of the Abyss in peak condition.

Without a Heavenly Venerable, who dares to fight?

"Can you escape?" Ye Feng chuckled, and everyone’s fate became uncertain as they felt their bodies fixed in place.

"Fundamental Domain of Laws?!"

Including the Yellow Demon Heavenly King, all dozen cultivators in the temple were unable to move, and their pupils contracted, unable to understand why Ye Feng had such means.

"Haha, it works indeed."

Ye Feng stood on the ground with his hands behind his back, smilingly looking at the Yellow Demon Heavenly King and the others.

Even though the small universe hadn’t transformed into a lower-ranked Great Universe yet, after absorbing Universe 1566, the foundation of the small universe became thicker, allowing Ye Feng to infinitely approach one-turn Heavenly Venerable. Through continuous extrapolation, naturally, he was able to create special secret techniques, evolve the Fundamental Domain of Laws using the small universe’s own pressure as a basis.

With a mere thought, he can suppress quasi-Heavenly Venerables.

"The Master of the Abyss was killed by Xiao Fangu; you all should perish as well."

Ye Feng said quietly.

"No, I don’t want to die! I still wish to create billions of Abyss Demon armies, dominate the cosmic sea, push through the myriad realms, and prove the path to a Heavenly Venerable!"

The Yellow Demon Heavenly King roared.

"Dream on!" Ye Feng shrugged.

"No, I still have a chance, countless Abyss Demon armies, all self-destruct, channel through me!"

The Yellow Demon Heavenly King shouted wildly.

Bang!

The dozen Abyss Demons at half-step Heavenly Venerable Realm inside the hall exploded, and the ten-million army in the abyss self-destructed at the same time, turning into countless purple-black fundamental domain torrents that surged into the Yellow Demon Heavenly King’s forehead.

His aura directly doubled!

"Kill!"

The Yellow Demon Heavenly King gathered his life’s skills, opened a vertical-eye-like fissure on his chest, from which a dazzling blood-colored light sword cleaved towards Ye Feng’s forehead.

"A flea trying to shake a tree."

Ye Feng stretched out two fingers, effortlessly clamping the incoming light sword; with a flick, it instead cleaved the Yellow Demon Heavenly King himself, causing his body to collapse.

"Dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth; perish!"

Ye Feng blew out a breath imbued with laws, easily shattering the Yellow Demon Heavenly King’s remains.

From now on, the Abyss Demon army was completely annihilated.

"Let’s explore the abyss; I’ve heard it contains numerous Special Origins, but I wonder if it can enable the small universe to transform into a lower-ranked Great Universe."

Ye Feng whispered, stamping his foot and crushing the Holy Temple of the Abyss Clan, walking in the gray-black abyss, uncovering many ancient relics and inscription carvings.

Those were ancient supreme divine arts.

Among them were Heavenly Venerable level divine arts, each with unique effects, all learned by Ye Feng on the spot.

Soon, Ye Feng continued his exploration of the abyss.

"Enlightenment Flower!"

This treasure, rare outside, appeared here in the hundreds, all taken away by Ye Feng.

...

Within the Twin Universe.

Gong Qingqiu was presiding over the recruitment examination for the Sixteenth Generation disciples, preparing to complete it by mid-January.

Currently, those who wish to join the Misty Holy Sect are always ready, so there’s no need to waste time waiting until March or April for the examination.

A quick battle is the best choice.

In the Void Heavenly World.

Ye Feng sent a strand of consciousness into this realm to communicate with Gong Qingqiu, learning that she was recruiting the Sixteenth Generation disciples, hence he said, "Recruit those with high talent and strong enlightenment as much as possible."

"Understood." Gong Qingqiu nodded.

The reason behind it, Ye Feng did not explain.

But he knew.

Since refining the cosmic consciousness of Universe 1566, he realized the importance of enlightenment. After becoming Heavenly Venerable, various constitutions could only determine the combat power of the same rank.

Only enlightenment can determine the upper limit.

Of course, having a special constitution means one’s enlightenment usually won’t be too poor, but the special constitution’s manifestation is often high combat power, with enlightenment as an adjunct.

Some people are different.

They have no special constitution, but are innately strong in enlightenment; as long as they don’t die, they can achieve very high realms in the future, such as Dao Monarch above Heavenly Venerable.

Becoming a Dao Monarch makes one a regional overlord.

Although the Origin of All Things is large and divided into numerous areas, each area is also substantial, nurturing countless Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures; being a dominant-level powerhouse in that area offers hope to advance to higher realms.

Cultivation emphasizes wealth, companion, law, and land.

Becoming a dominant-level powerhouse, mastering wealth and land, then gathering companions and law will enable one to seize the favorable timing and conditions, thereby continuing to advance.

All over the Twin Universe.

Gong Qingqiu presided over the new disciple recruitment ceremony, specially preparing an enlightenment test, focusing on those with great enlightenment.

Ye Feng no longer paid attention to this matter.

He continued to explore the abyss.

This place is vast, a million miles wide, stretching over tens of millions of miles, and exploring for a long time to reach the end.

"So many gigantic bones!"

Ye Feng discovered the ground was uneven, like numerous underwater mountain ranges, stretching endlessly; in some places, there were numerous gigantic bones, diverse in shape.

Fanged Mad Pig, Dragon Rhino, Ironclad Centipede...

At the very least, they were ten thousand meters long, some reaching a length of one million meters, larger than imagined, all having absorbed endless abyss energy, becoming hard enough to rival materials at the half-step Heavenly Venerable level.

Yet, they could not be refined.

If taken away, as soon as they left the abyss, their internal energy would flow back beneath the abyss.

"What’s going on?"

Ye Feng couldn’t help but reach out to touch the ten-thousand-meter-long Ironclad Centipede, which hummed and vibrated as if it had come alive, its eyes exploding with dazzling brilliance.

"Ant, I’ll kill you!"

The Ironclad Centipede snarled, clawing and biting towards Ye Feng, intending to devour him.

"What the heck?!"

Ye Feng slapped and shattered the Ironclad Centipede, which collapsed into powder, pure abyss origin flowing out and reinjected beneath the abyss, quickly disappearing.

"I cannot extract them!"

Ye Feng tried to absorb these origins, only to realize they seemed to belong to an ancient creature, who resides in a particular area beneath the abyss.

"Interesting, interesting!"

Ye Feng decided to dive into the abyss for exploration.

Crack!

Ye Feng immediately descended beneath the abyss, only to find the surface incomparably hard; just a hundred meters down, he hit a layer of smooth stone tablets that were impossible to break through.

"I refuse to give up!"

Ye Feng learned through the Eye of Insight that this object was the shield of an ancient being, who was the one brewing abyss energy.

"Ultimate Sword Drawing Technique!"

Ye Feng took a deep breath, raising the Primordial Sword Embryo high, gathering all his strength, surpassing the upper limits set by the Cosmic Sea, he slashed down hard.

Crack!

The energy slate was shattered, but only some fist-sized fragments fell off, and there seemed to be a thick layer below. Ye Feng had to keep chopping.

"So hard!"

Ye Feng was taken aback. Even with all his strength and the amplification from the Sword Drawing Technique, this strike would take down even a One-Turn Heavenly Venerable.

Yet, he barely broke the slate.

"This is really strange, how can there be such hard treasures in the Cosmic Sea? It’s not right!"

Ye Feng complained while continuing to chop.

In no time, he had cut away a ten-meter-thick smooth stone board, burrowing downward like digging a hole, going deeper and deeper.

...

The Origin Land of All Things.

In the sky above, a blood moon hovered over three million miles from the ground, with a diameter of millions of miles, featuring mountains and lakes, housing countless divine pools.

This was the main base of the Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan.

The High Heavenly Blood Moon!

"Damn thing, daring to kill my soul fragment, I will remember this! I will make sure you suffer eternal damnation!"

A Heavenly Venerable of the Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan roared in anger.

Soon, the news spread.

The entire Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan learned of how three Heavenly Venerable spirit fragments were ambushed and shattered in grief by Ye Feng of the Twin Universe and the traitorous Master of the Abyss.

"We must capture Ye Feng!"

"And the Master of the Abyss, we must suppress them and then devour and merge their bodies."

"Right, we can’t waste the talent!"

Many Heavenly Venerables spoke thus.

Quickly, the Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan’s Heavenly Venerables unanimously decided to send soul fragments down to the lower realm, particularly those Four-Turn and Five-Turn Heavenly Venerables who had been trapped by bottlenecks for countless years, all eager to devour Ye Feng and the Master of the Abyss.

"It’s said that Ye Feng has the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree?"

"Seize it!"

"Everyone, invade the Twin Universe!"

Many powerful figures of the Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan started crafting their soul fragments, with over a dozen Four-Turn, Five-Turn, and Six-Turn Heavenly Venerables appearing, forming a formidable lineup.

In the Primordial Divine Mountain of the Abyss Clan.

Numerous experts also mobilized, shifting their attention away from Xiao Fangu, who was taken by the Dao Monarch, all preparing for the invasion of the Twin Universe.

After all, Ye Feng had the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree!

This was enough to drive countless Heavenly Venerables mad.

At the pinnacle of the Primordial Divine Mountain.

Two golden great apes, bathed in radiant light, sat atop thrones, overlooking the many Heavenly Venerables below.

"The Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree is very precious, ensure it is seized," said one golden ape.

"Understood!"

The Heavenly Venerables of the Abyss Clan, unless in closed-door life-and-death cultivation or lacking resources, all prepared to concoct their soul fragments, ready to descend and invade the Twin Universe together.

In the main base of the War God Xing Tian Race, Slaying Heaven Race, and Oblivion Blade Clan, no one mobilized.

At this moment, inside a Holy Temple.

"Clan Leader, why aren’t we acting? Are we just going to watch as the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree of the Twin Universe gets taken by the Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan and the Abyss Clan?"

Someone spoke with extreme reluctance.

The one referred to as the Clan Leader just lightly shook his head and said, "This matter involves cause and effect, beyond our interference. The Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan and the Abyss Clan have grown arrogant; in the future, the five peak forces of the Cosmic Sea might have to shuffle."

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Reshuffle the five peak forces of the Cosmic Sea?

That would require at least means at the Dao Monarch Realm!

Otherwise, even if the Abyss Clan and Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan were destroyed, they couldn’t contend against the backing behind them.

"Let’s wait and see!"

The Clan Leader was uninterested in getting involved in this matter.

The other two clan leaders also did not wish to act, all quietly observing, waiting for those tainted with cause and effect to wipe out the Abyss Clan and Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan, so their chance would arrive.

Ye Feng was unaware of the turmoil outside.

He was still digging a pit.

Crack!

Ye Feng dug a hundred meters down, finally breaking through the smooth, hard milky white stone slab layer, entering a space that seemed like a giant cocoon inside.

This place was tens of thousands of meters long, ten thousand meters high, and ten thousand meters wide.

The interior was filled with gray and black Abyss Origin, forming layered clouds, encircling a massive golden-red skull within the giant cocoon.

"Hiss!"

Ye Feng stared at the skull, feeling a sensation akin to when he first saw the Tyrant Emperor’s skull on Shenzhou.

But, this skull was terrifying.

It was likely beyond a Heavenly Venerable!

Seemingly sensing Ye Feng’s arrival, the surface of the eerie golden-red skull began to shine, with flesh and blood reborn, transforming into a real head, but the neck and below had been severed, with the wound exuding a terrible Blade Intent of destruction.

The one who struck must have been terrifying!

"Ha..."

The head gradually turned crimson-gold, with two massive heavy pupils staring fixedly at Ye Feng, then the corners of its mouth curved into a strange smile.

"Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor? Such a weak existence."

Its voice was like thunder, shaking Ye Feng’s very soul, invoking an instinctual fear.

"You must be beyond Heavenly Venerable!"

Ye Feng swallowed hard, wanting to avoid being trapped, immediately turning to flee.

He wasn’t afraid of death, but feared entrapment.

"Could this crimson-gold head be the disaster the Invincible Old Man spoke of? Bad!"

Ye Feng’s face changed repeatedly.

"Youngster, your body seems like a mortal body, yet can burst with power akin to a One-Turn Heavenly Venerable, it’s truly peculiar."

Ye Feng had already reached the exit.

But, with a "pop", the huge milky white cocoon instantly restored itself, and Ye Feng’s full-force strike only managed to produce a fist-sized wound.

Then, the wound healed.

No matter how Ye Feng chopped, he couldn’t get out.

He was trapped!

"This is a disaster!" Ye Feng turned sharply, locking eyes with the crimson-gold head.

"Boy, your body isn’t bad, I’ve taken a liking to it. How about this, let me seize and merge with your body to help me return to the Origin Land of All Things."

The crimson-gold head calmly proposed.

"How about I cut you down instead?" Ye Feng gripped the Primordial Sword Embryo tightly.

"You think you can?" The crimson-gold head laughed, as if hearing the world’s funniest joke.

"How would I know if I don’t try?" Ye Feng realized he had to slay the crimson-gold head, otherwise, the cocoon’s shell would keep regenerating, leading to an inescapable situation.

To escape, the crimson-gold head must be slain.

Fortunately, the opponent was not in prime condition, having been repressed here for years. Although possessing terrifying pressure and a wealth of combat experience, the power they could unleash was not exceptionally strong.

"Try? Lad, you must just be a native of this Cosmic Sea region, unaware of my name and true cultivation, or you wouldn’t be so arrogant."

The crimson-gold head sneered.

"Oh, so, during your prime what was your cultivation? I’m really curious." Ye Feng gazed at the crimson-gold head, using the Eye of Insight.

But the opponent’s cultivation was too high.

He couldn’t glean any information.

"It seems, the Eye of Insight can only view information up to the Heavenly Venerable level, anything higher is undetectable. Perhaps, when my cultivation is akin to a Heavenly Venerable, I’ll be able to see information beyond that level?" Ye Feng pondered internally.

Boom!

The crimson-gold head suddenly vibrated, releasing a fearsome domain far exceeding the Heavenly Dao Realm, instantly locking onto Ye Feng, rendering him unable to move.

"What a terrifying domain!" Ye Feng was inwardly startled.

"Boy, listen closely, I am the Radiant Daoist!" The crimson-gold head spoke again, its voice containing a shockwave of laws, directly assaulting Ye Feng’s mind.

This was the beginning of a takeover!

[Note: This Chapter has over 4600 words, many people say it’s dragging the pace... Well, actually, the Sect Leader was originally planned to conclude around 3 million words. However, after continuously flopping several new books, there’s no choice but to continue writing the Sect Leader... I’ve begun preparing a new book now, if its performance is decent, the Sect Leader should end as planned... but if the new book doesn’t meet expectations, continuing with the Sect Leader is the only option... Good morning!]
