The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 1644: Chapter 1644: Half-Step, Quasi, Heavenly Venerable

"And then?" Ye Feng asked eagerly.

The Spirit Heavenly Immortal slightly smiled and said,

"After reaching the Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor, if you strive for the position of the Dao in a Lower Rank universe and defeat your competitors, you will gain the recognition of the Cosmic Will."

"Then, the nineteen Dao laws you created will be imprinted with the origin seal of the Cosmic Will, gaining cosmic-level pressure and greatly increasing your power."

"And this is what is called the Half-Step Heavenly Venerable."

"If one proves their Dao in a Middle Rank universe, one can not only have their nineteen Dao laws imprinted with the origin seal of the Cosmic Will and gain more power, but also undergo the baptism of the Cosmic Will, enhancing their strength further. This is known as a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable."

"However, only by proving your Dao in a Superior Universe can you perfectly fuse your nineteen Dao laws with the previous eighty-one Dao laws, and then receive the baptism of the Cosmic Will, reaching full comprehension."

"Afterward, the hundred Dao laws condense into a law mark imprinted at the brow, then condense the Heavenly Venerable body, and only then are you a True Heavenly Venerable."

"If one ascends to the Origin of All Things with the cultivation level of a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable or a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, they can use the will of heaven and earth there to temper themselves until their nineteen Dao laws and the universe’s eighty-one Dao laws perfectly fuse into one law mark and condense the Heavenly Venerable body, they can also become a genuine Heavenly Dao Realm."

"That’s roughly the procedure."

"As for the cultivation path after the Heavenly Dao Realm, even my Law Incarnation does not know. You will have to explore that for yourself once you ascend."

The Spirit Heavenly Immortal explained in detail.

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng finally understood.

"So, this is the entire path of cultivation before becoming a true Heavenly Venerable."

He nodded thoughtfully.

"You don’t need to worry about this, because you live in the Twin Universe. Once you can overpower other competitors, you can directly skip the Half-Step Heavenly Venerable and Quasi-Heavenly Venerable stages with the help of the Cosmic Will, and become a genuine Heavenly Dao Realm."

The Spirit Heavenly Immortal reminded.

"Hmm." Ye Feng nodded.

"Do you have any more questions?"

The Spirit Heavenly Immortal’s voice was gentle.

In her opinion, Ye Feng’s talent was terrifying, and it wouldn’t be long before he could become a Heavenly Dao Realm.

"I forgot to mention, the Black Prison has been breached."

Ye Feng summarized everything from attending the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom’s New Year celebration to recent events, including the injuries of the Black Prison Demonic Beast.

"The Black Prison has actually been breached!"

The Spirit Heavenly Immortal sighed.

"Senior, do you think the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom has become internally corrupt as Xia Yao mentioned? Otherwise, how could a Little Monkey from the Abyss Clan hide there for so many years and remain unharmed? More suspicious is that he was able to use the Eternal Ancient Divine Pool."

Ye Feng couldn’t help but ask.

"Pretty much!" The Spirit Heavenly Immortal nodded, "I remember warning you before, the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom is not what it used to be, you must be very careful."

"It seems there’s a reason why former State Preceptors of the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom have met tragic ends after retiring."

Ye Feng remarked sarcastically.

"The State Preceptors of the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom are all extraordinarily talented and have hearts of absolute justice, so they abide by the law while in office. Unfortunately, it’s hard for the Preceptors to have a good ending after retiring."

The Spirit Heavenly Immortal sighed.

"It seems like there’s indeed a big problem within the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom. Fortunately, I didn’t use the Myriad Spirits Treasure Vase this time and didn’t expose my trump card." Saying this, Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, "By the way, how much power can the Myriad Spirits Treasure Vase unleash? Half-Step Heavenly Venerable?"

"It can kill a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable. As for a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, it depends on the situation, but even if it can’t kill a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, it can at least suppress them in the bottle."

The Spirit Heavenly Immortal explained.

After learning about the realms of Half-Step Heavenly Venerable, Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, and Heavenly Venerable, Ye Feng roughly understood the power of the Myriad Spirits Treasure Vase.

"There’s one incense stick’s worth of time left, let me teach you the path after the Eighty-One-Layered Immortal Emperor!"

The Spirit Heavenly Immortal proactively spoke up.

"Alright." Ye Feng eagerly agreed.

In the void,

The Spirit Heavenly Immortal first lightly tapped Ye Feng’s brow with her fingertip, transmitting certain key instructions, and then verbally explained the points he didn’t understand.

"I see!"

"Creating laws is not done haphazardly."

"Suppose the law I major in is the Wood Spirit Law of the Wood Elemental; from the Eighty-One-Layered Immortal Emperor, I must create new laws based on this foundation, best achieving a consistent lineage."

Ye Feng grasped the key points and muttered.

Soon after, he continued to ask questions.

An hour quickly passed, and as Ye Feng noticed his body gradually fading, he realized it was time to leave again.

"Ye Feng, see you next time."

The Spirit Heavenly Immortal waved goodbye.

"Goodbye, Yu Jie."

Ye Feng nodded and gradually dissipated from the Spirit Heavenly Immortal’s view until he was completely gone.

...

In a section of the starry sky,

Ye Feng’s figure gradually reappeared, but since he was shrouded in a cocoon-like layer, Xia Yao and Huo Lingjiao nearby were unaware that he had left.

"Finally back."

He murmured to himself softly.

This meeting with the Spirit Heavenly Immortal allowed him to learn about the Cosmic Tree, the Origin of All Things, the Invincible Old Man guarding the Cosmic Sea, cosmic levels, and the realm divisions before Heavenly Venerable.

This information was very important.

If spread, it would undoubtedly cause a sensation.

"Besides the division of realms before reaching the Heavenly Venerable, certain sensitive information isn’t suitable for public release in the current universe."

Ye Feng secretly warned himself.

Some matters shouldn’t be widely spread, otherwise, they could have adverse effects on the universe.

Rip!

He broke through the cocoon-like aura around him, looked around, and saw Xia Yao standing nearby. As she saw him appear, she immediately showed a warm smile.

"You finished your retreat rather quickly."

Xia Yao’s voice was much gentler than before, mainly because she had become friends with Ye Feng, and due to their recent battles together, their relationship had deepened.

If it were someone else, she would be very indifferent.

"How long was I in retreat?" Ye Feng inquired.

"About an hour," Xia Yao said, her pretty face full of surprise, "Did you break through to the Sixtieth Level of the Immortal Emperor? Congratulations!"

"Yes." Ye Feng nodded, surprised that the time he spent in retreat coincided with the time he met the Spirit Heavenly Immortal.

"You broke through to the Sixtieth Level of the Immortal Emperor?"

Not far away, Huo Lingjiao’s voice came, filled with astonishment and admiration.

Ye Feng looked towards the source of the voice.

Huo Lingjiao was performing a secret technique, transforming this desolate star system, reviving several ancient stars to make them suitable for cultivation.

"Done!" She clapped her hands, a proud expression on her face, "So, shall we go hunt other Black Prison convicts next?"

"Yes, but while I was in retreat breaking through to the Sixtieth Level of the Immortal Emperor, I had an insight, and in my spiritual journey, I discovered some ancient secrets."

Ye Feng said with a mysterious expression.

His self-created Internal Universe System, with the realm name of the Creation Realm, corresponds to the Immortal Emperor. However, when talking about cultivation level with other cultivators, he still had to say Immortal Emperor, not Creation Realm Sixtieth Level, to avoid confusion that would require lengthy explanations.

"Oh? What secrets?"

Xia Yao and Huo Lingjiao were both very interested.

Ye Feng said, "It’s about the details of cultivation realm divisions before reaching the Heavenly Venerable."

"Huh?"

The two women blinked, feeling incredulous.

Wasn’t it simply the Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor Realm before Heavenly Venerable? What’s so detailed about this realm?

"Just now, my Divine Soul left my body and traveled to a mystical ancient region, where I read numerous historical records and found out the truth."

Ye Feng deliberately said this.

Meeting the Spirit Heavenly Immortal after his breakthrough was a secret exclusive to himself, something he didn’t want others to know, but he could explain it through his spiritual journeys.

"The universe is divided into lower rank, middle rank, and upper rank, with cultivators ascending from these levels being respectively Half-Step Heavenly Venerables, Quasi-Heavenly Venerables, and True Heavenly Venerables, each with varying strength."

Ye Feng explained.

"Is there such a thing?"

Xia Yao and Huo Lingjiao both widened their almond-shaped eyes.

Ye Feng continued:

"Our Twin Universe is a Superior Universe, while the Flame Universe is just a Lower Rank universe. Different levels of universes have different glorious eras intervals."

"In a Lower Rank universe, the interval for a glorious era is about a million years and is called a minor cycle."

"In a Middle Rank universe, the interval is tens of millions to a hundred million years, called a Great Reincarnation."

"For a Superior Universe, the interval is an Origin Era, or about 1.4 billion years, known as a Grand Cycle."

"Due to the different accumulations of glorious eras, the cultivation levels of Heavenly Venerables ascending from different universes also differ."

"Do you understand this?"

Ye Feng looked at their dazed expressions.

"Impossible!" Huo Lingjiao was the first to object, waving her hand repeatedly, "How could our Flame Universe be just a Lower Rank universe? How could the Dao achievers there only be the weakest Half-Step Heavenly Venerables?"

"Is that true?"

Xia Yao, on the other hand, supported her forehead with her hand, expressing doubt.

Ye Feng said, "These were insights I gained during my breakthrough, when my spirit roved, reaching an unfamiliar place, perhaps the origin of the Cosmic Will, where I saw some ancient documents."

His implication was:

The above information was gleaned from what I’ve read; whether it’s true, you decide for yourselves.

"Alright, I won’t say more about this. I also have some doubts. However, now the most crucial information is that I discovered that because of different universe levels, the power needed to open a cosmic rift also varies. In our Twin Universe, a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable is required to break through a cosmic rift."

Upon saying this, Ye Feng looked at Huo Lingjiao, "So at the current stage, your wish to return to the Flame Universe is almost impossible to achieve."

In fact, Ye Feng had a way to open a cosmic rift and send Huo Lingjiao away.

Method one: Use the Myriad Spirits Treasure Vase.

Method two: Wait for the Sect Members to grow stronger, and he could one day reach the level of a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, allowing him to open the cosmic rift on his own.

But, these two methods cannot be used for now.

That’s because the Myriad Spirits Treasure Vase is Ye Feng’s trump card at the moment, and he cannot use it casually.

As for waiting for his strength to reach the level of a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, it would take a long time and would require continuously enhancing the strength of the Sect Members.

Therefore, he couldn’t send Huo Lingjiao away for the time being.

"Really?"

Upon hearing she couldn’t leave the Twin Universe, Huo Lingjiao was disheartened and couldn’t believe Ye Feng’s words.

Because, if all this were true, she could never return to the Flame Universe in her lifetime.

"Don’t worry." Xia Yao held Huo Lingjiao’s hand, "Even if Ye Feng’s information is true or false, what does it matter? When someone reaches the Heavenly Dao Realm during this Origin Era, they could take you to ascend and leave, wouldn’t they?"
