The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 256: Chapter 256: Ye Feng’s Strength, Five Different Powers
“Sect Master Ye may not be in the Spirit Sea Realm, but he surpasses it,” Ji Wushuang said as she sat on a stone bench, inviting Luo Hedong to sit beside her.

Then, Ji Wushuang continued to explain, “Sect Master Ye is a rare Chosen One. It is said that he is merely a mortal, yet his strength is immense. Some time ago, he first slew two great peak Demon Generals in a row, followed by furiously cleaving Demon King Huyuan in the battle of the Liuyun Sect…”

The deeds of Ye Feng were recounted.

Including the use of the Sword Drawing Technique in Whitefloat City to slay Souhun Zhenren, and the consecutive kills of two great peak Demon Generals in the Fuyun Gloomy Forest.

Lastly, in the battle of the Liuyun Sect, he instantly eradicated the Demon King’s body of Huyuan and stabilized the turmoil in the Demon City, a glorious feat.

Luo Hedong listened intently, feeling increasingly shocked.

“So, the Misty Sect is such a magical sect.” Luo Hedong took a deep breath, realizing Ye Feng’s extraordinary nature. No wonder he could comprehend such a powerful Sword Drawing Technique.

After pondering for a moment, Luo Hedong asked, “Right, this Sect Master Ye, he must be a kind old man with white beard, right?”

Ji Wushuang looked a bit odd.

“No, he is a young man slightly older than us, around twenty years of age, with an extraordinary and handsome appearance.”

“So young!”

Luo Hedong was shocked once again.

Ji Wushuang nodded and said, “Sect Master Ye is indeed such a wondrous person. At such a young age, he already has such strength. Even our Sword Child greatly admires him, hoping that Sect Master Ye can help her ascend to her position.”

“Sword Child?”

“The former True Disciple, Mu Ruxue, she has overwhelmed all the prodigies and successfully claimed the position of Sword Child. Now, I am loyal to her.”

Luo Hedong felt another shock in his heart.

He was only trapped for several months, but upon coming out, he heard that such great changes had occurred on the outside.

The rise of the Misty Sect.

Mu Ruxue becoming the Sword Child of the Divine Wind Sword Sect.

Shuiyang City was destroyed and became the Demon City ruled by the Demon Race, until it was extinguished.

There were too many similar events.

“By the way, you may have missed out on something very important.” Ji Wushuang pointed towards the sky, “Do you remember the thunder clouds that covered the sky that night some time ago?”

Luo Hedong’s expression turned solemn, “Of course I remember, that seemed to be a Divine Origin Realm peak expert undergoing tribulation, quite fearsome. Could it be…”

Ji Wushuang nodded seriously, “That’s right! It was the Mystique Kingdom’s ancestor undergoing tribulation, and he succeeded. He is about to become the first ‘Ancestor Realm’ Great Power in our Mystique Kingdom’s history.”

“Hiss!”

Luo Hedong’s heart nearly leapt out of his chest.

He was only trapped for a few months, but he had missed so many significant events!

“If the Mystique Kingdom’s ancestor has truly entered the Void Break Realm, doesn’t that mean, this world is about to change?” Luo Hedong ventured to ask.

“Exactly!” Ji Wushuang nodded seriously.

“Hiss…”

Luo Hedong took in another breath of cold air.

…

Misty Peak.

Ye Feng sat cross-legged in the Sect Leader’s Great Hall.

“As the disciples’ cultivation levels increase, especially Mo Ying stepping into the Element Gathering Realm, coupled with Lao Song’s breakthrough to Middle Rank Demon General just a few days ago, along with the breakthroughs of many Spiritual Beasts, and the addition of Gong Qingqiu, the boost they’ve provided me is too great.”

“Now, my flesh body strength is getting stronger and stronger, and it has reached an extremely high realm…”

Ye Feng began to feel his own strength.

A moment later, he opened his eyes, exclaimed excitedly, “My pure flesh body strength has actually reached the Sixth Layer of the Element Gathering Realm!”

“As for the Heroic Spirit Power, because I pacified the unrest in several places during this period and inherited the power of many ancient Heroic Spirits. Moreover, the Sect Prestige Value has broken through the twenty-thousand mark, which has also provided a significant enhancement.”

“Let’s test the Heroic Spirit Power first and see exactly how far it has reached.”

With a mere thought from Ye Feng, a hard ore stone was split in two by an invisible force, with a surface as smooth as a mirror.

“The Heroic Spirit Power has actually reached the Sixth Layer of the Element Gathering Realm as well!”

“Brilliant!”

Ye Feng was quite excited.

Even without using the Five Elements Spirit Sword or the White Bone Sword Array and other Spiritual Artifacts, just relying on his flesh body and Heroic Spirit Power, he could contend with those in the Seventh Layer of the Element Gathering Realm.

“However, what exactly is this trace of black Qi on me?”

Ye Feng lifted his palm and found there was a patch of black Qi that looked like a floating dragon hovering in the air, with sinister red light flickering in its eyes, which was very intimidating.

“Ding, it is Evil Qi!”

The System began to explain, “Sect Leader has slaughtered many in the Demon City, used the Third Grade Spells ‘Heavenly Moon Strike’ to wipe out tens of thousands of the Demon Race in a short time, and has been cursed by the ancient will of the Demon Race, afflicted with Evil Qi. However, it has now been transformed into Slaughter Energy by the System.”

“What use does Slaughter Energy have?” Ye Feng promptly asked, “Or rather, is there any negative impact on me?”

“Had it not been refined and transformed by the System, this kind of power would corrode Sect Leader’s body and will. But now, it has become a power that can be wielded, having an opposite effect to the Power of Faith,” the System explained.

“I see!” Ye Feng put his mind at ease.

But soon, he discovered another strange issue.

That was, even without using Heroic Spirit Power, he could still telekinetically move the cup from afar, which was quite bizarre.

“This doesn’t seem to be Heroic Spirit Power, so what exactly is it?”

“Divine Sense Power,” the System prompted.

“Hmm?”

Ye Feng’s gaze became focused, and he thought of something.

“All the disciples are also practicing the ‘Nine-Turn Heavenly God Technique’, although only Ziling has reached the Middle Second Stage, which is equivalent to the Qi Refining Fifth Layer. Together with the combined Divine Sense Power from the other disciples, it’s no wonder that I have Divine Sense Power comparable to the Qi Refining Seventh Layer.”

“Though the Divine Sense Power is not strong enough yet, there is still room for further improvement.”

“So, it seems I already possess five powerful forces”,spiritual strength, Divine Sense Power, Heroic Spirit Power, the Power of Faith, and the Energy of Slaughter.”

Only today did Ye Feng discover that he harbored so many powers within him. If he could integrate them, his strength was certain to surge dramatically.

However, the difficulty of merging them was tremendous!

At the current stage, this idea was hard to make a reality.

…

Leaving the Sect Leader’s Great Hall, Ye Feng surveyed the entirety of Misty Peak.

The most important task at hand was to lead the Misty Sect in ascending to Star-Level Sect status.

Now, the Alchemy Pavilion was established.

There wasn’t an Artifact-refining Pavilion yet, but Gong Qingqiu was adept at both artifact-refining and talisman engraving, barely meeting the conditions.

There were no issues with the Spirit Beast Pavilion and the Spirit Vein.

As for the Spiritual Medicine Garden, it still needed further expansion at this stage. Ye Feng continued to entrust this important task to disciples like Jia Yulan, Xia He, Qiu Ju, and Yan Ruyu, giving them the collective responsibility to complete it.

The Scripture Pavilion was guarded by Ji Ziling; recently, a good number of First Grade Spells and ancient tomes were acquired to expand the collection, basically meeting the conditions.

“By that token, the only aspect the Misty Sect is lacking for the Star Ascension evaluation is the Spiritual Medicine Garden… This can apparently be achieved by splurging a bit, like spending a few thousand Spirit Stones to buy a large amount of Spirit Medicine Seeds for cultivation,” Ye Feng thought to himself.

He shared Misty Sect’s Star Ascension requirements with Gong Qingqiu who immediately set off to inspect Misty Peak to ensure all conditions met the minimum requirements.

If they did not, Gong Qingqiu would prepare to meet them.

…

Taiyue Mountain Range.

The Misty Sect’s F4 was still in search of Spiritual Medicine.

At this moment, Wang Ping’an extracted an earthy yellow spiritual medicine from the fertile soil, pointing at the lantern flower on top the size of a thumb, he said, “Found it, this is the Crying Infant Spirit Fruit. Give it a squeeze and it will emit the sound of a child’s cry.”

With that, he grasped the lantern flower.

“Wah wah wah…”

Indeed, the sound of a baby’s wail resonated.

“Great, after this, we just need the century-old Gold-fused Fallen Moon Bead to gather all the Spiritual Medicine needed for the pill recipe, and we’ll successfully complete this moderately difficult task,” Long Tianxing said as he deposited the Crying Infant Spirit Fruit into his storage ring.

“Let me check.” Huo Yunjie took out the Treasure-seeking Compass, observing its continuously turning needle, his consciousness entered the compass, as if he could see many spiritual medicines growing in the distance.

After half an incense stick’s time.

“Found it, eighty li to the northwest, there should be the century-old Gold-fused Fallen Moon Bead we need.”

Huo Yunjie took the lead.

…

In the northwest frontier of the Taiyue Mountain Range.

Here lay a medium-sized city built against the mountain, home to over two hundred thousand people, resembling Beacon Fire City, but due to its proximity to the Taiyue Mountain Range, it had a higher number of cultivators and stronger powers.

The City Lord’s cultivation level had even reached the third level of the Element Gathering Realm.

If not for the fact that this city’s alchemy and artifact-refining conditions weren’t met, it could also be recognized as a One-Star Force.

“Is this where the Gold-fused Fallen Moon Bead is located?” Shi Lei pointed at the city gate’s plaque, “Haijin City?”

“If the Treasure-seeking Compass hasn’t pointed us in the wrong direction, then the Gold-fused Fallen Moon Bead is inside this city,” Huo Yunjie said.

“Then let’s go into the city and take a look,” Shi Lei suggested.

“Since it’s inside the city, the Gold-fused Fallen Moon Bead must be in the hands of a powerful individual. We can only acquire it by purchasing it,” Long Tianxing said.

“We have plenty of Spirit Stones; we can afford to buy it,” Long Tianxing patted his chest.

Wang Ping’an, his mouth covered with a black cloth, dared not speak.

The group of four promptly entered the city.

Haijin City was not large.

The whole city was built against the mountain. At the center of the city was a valley, transformed into a lake of several thousand mu, stunningly picturesque.

“No wonder it’s called Haijin City; it’s because they have a lake inside… Eh, there’s an island in the center of the lake, which seems to be a Spirit Vein… Indeed, the Gold-fused Fallen Moon Bead seems to be on that island!”

Huo Yunjie followed the intuition of the Treasure-seeking Compass and saw that their final destination was pointing to that island.

“Are you here to participate in the City Lord’s birthday celebration too?”

A charming voice came from behind.

Shi Lei and his companions quickly turned to look.

There stood a woman in a white dress, her face covered with a light veil, barely visible through the veil was her beautiful countenance, definitely of great beauty.

Her cultivation in turn, was at the pinnacle of the Qi Refining Realm.

Behind the woman stood four maids in white, all with the cultivation of the sixth level of Qi Refining Realm.

At this moment, the woman’s peach-blossom eyes quietly looked at Huo Yunjie, handsome and deeply cultivated, and she said with a sweet smile, “This humble girl Ning Yujie, an Inner Sect Disciple of Feihua Sect, greets my fellow daoists.”

“Huo Yunjie, Second Disciple of Misty Sect. These are Eldest Senior Brother Shi Lei, and fellow disciples, Long Tianxing and Wang Ping’an,” Huo Yunjie introduced, gesturing to the others behind him.

“Hiss… from the Misty Sect, no wonder you are so strikingly handsome and distinguished, with such exceptional cultivation. The lady is quite smitten,” Ning Yujie laughed even more exaggeratedly, even with a hint of sensuous charm.

Looking at Ning Yujie, Long Tianxing noticed that her eyes were filled with passion when looking at Huo Yunjie, as if she wanted to devour him whole.

“Thanks for the compliment. Might you have heard of the Gold-fused Fallen Moon Bead?” Since he had met someone, Huo Yunjie decided to inquire.

“Of course, I’ve heard of it. Haijin City’s Lake Heart Island produces Gold-fused Fallen Moon Beads. If you, Brother Huo, need to purchase one, please accompany this little lady to the island,” Ning Yujie offered, waving her hand.

At Ning Yujie’s gesture, the four maids behind her formed hand seals immediately, releasing a Spirit Boat that could seat at least ten people.

“Thank you for your kindness,” Huo Yunjie thanked her with a bowed hand.

The group of nine boarded the Spirit Boat, skimming the lake’s surface, flying toward the Lake Heart Island shrouded in dense spiritual energy.
