The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 1993: Chapter 1993: Luring Out the Snake, Purification, Dumbfounded

"I am Tian Meng."

Despite not wanting to reveal her identity, Tian Meng followed Ye Feng’s instructions and stated her code name.

"Tian Meng!"

The Qingchen Ancient Immortal, Six-Eyed Divine King, and others silently remembered the Empress’s name.

Cosmic Sea.

"Look, they’re about to prove the Dao again."

"Fellow Daoists, have you prepared the fine wine? We’re about to start the celebration feast!"

The Moon-Worshipper Elder and others appeared exceptionally excited while watching the images transmitted by the King of Destruction.

"Hahaha, let’s begin!"

All the Half-Step Heavenly Venerables took out the fine wines they had treasured for years, gathered around the images, and eagerly watched the battle through the King of Destruction’s perspective.

Shenzhou, Heavenly Origin Sea.

Six-Eyed Divine King, Qingchen Ancient Immortal, and Empress Tian Meng had already acquired a mark, but the others had yet to arrive, leaving the place empty and silent.

Thud!

Heavy footsteps approached.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

In the void, a majestic elder clad in pure golden dragon armor walked over, with two crossed short spears strapped to his back, their spearheads gleaming coldly and striking fear into hearts.

This was a reclusive powerhouse.

After all, no one present knew him.

Boom!

The Dragon Armor Elder released his aura, giving the impression of facing a king with Nine-star Pinnacle combat power. Recognized by the Great Dao Golden List, he obtained a mark.

This was the qualification to participate in the struggle for the Dao.

"Who is this person?"

"I don’t know, he looks unfamiliar. Are there such reclusive beings in our universe?"

"I’m not sure about that."

Everyone discussed, but no one knew who he was.

The Qingchen Ancient Immortal felt immense pressure.

The Dragon Armor Elder was a king of Nine-star Pinnacle power. Though not as formidable as the Divine Sword Immortal Emperor or the True Spirit of the Bodhi Ancient Tree, he was still a powerful contender.

"The hope of proving the Dao this time is slim!"

The Qingchen Ancient Immortal furrowed his brows.

"But it’s fine, the King of Destruction will ambush the final winner of the Dao proving, so I won’t compete for the first place this time and will continue to hone myself with these top powerhouses."

He thought to himself.

Whiz! Whiz! Whiz!

After the Dragon Armor Elder’s arrival, several more Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors appeared and received their marks.

Not long after.

All ten marks were taken.

Empress Tian Meng and others stood in place, waiting for opponents to challenge or preparing to challenge others.

Outside, countless people were watching.

"Strange, I suddenly remembered something. Isn’t it said that after failing to prove the Dao, there is a one-year cooling-off period? Why can the Qingchen Ancient Immortal and Six-Eyed Divine King obtain marks and qualify to participate again?"

Someone raised this question.

People were taken aback upon hearing this.

Upon thinking carefully, there seemed to indeed be such a rule.

"The cooling-off period applies to those participating in the True Heavenly Venerable and Quasi-Heavenly Venerable struggles, but there seems to be no cooling-off period for Half-Step Heavenly Venerable contenders."

Someone explained.

"Really?" Some still doubted.

"It must be so, otherwise, how could the Qingchen Ancient Immortal and Six-Eyed Divine King always obtain the Half-Step Heavenly Venerable proving qualification marks every time?" someone said.

"Oh, that’s true."

Others nodded in agreement.

"Oh, it turns out there’s no such thing as a cooling-off period for Half-Step Heavenly Venerables trying to prove the Dao." Li Jiaojiao was also eavesdropping on the discussions and realized.

Misty Peak summit, on the ground.

Ye Feng spread out a straw mat, placed a small square table on it with a teapot and cups, and sat there drinking tea silently.

"I’m here!"

Yao Yue appeared out of thin air and sat opposite Ye Feng.

Whiz! Whiz!

Two more figures appeared, namely the Ancient Sky Tribe Ancestor and Divine Sword Immortal Emperor. Afterward, the True Spirit of the Bodhi Ancient Tree and True Lord of Fiery Flame also arrived.

"Hiss!"

"The Divine Sword Immortal Emperor isn’t dead yet?"

"The Bodhi Ancient Tree is still alive too."

The surrounding disciples like Li Jiaojiao were astonished.

"Do I look dead to you?" The Divine Sword Immortal Emperor grinned at Li Jiaojiao, causing her to offer an awkward but polite smile.

"Oh my gosh!"

"Five Half-Step Heavenly Venerables gathered together, along with our Sect Leader, what could they be planning?"

"Duh, they must be planning something big."

"So, what exactly are they planning?"

"I seriously suspect they are joining forces to deal with the lurking King of Destruction. Only that person is worth the Sect Leader joining hands with five Half-Step Heavenly Venerable realm powerhouses."

The disciples whispered among themselves.

Fortunately, this was at Misty Peak, with various prohibitions set by Ye Feng, so the King of Destruction couldn’t eavesdrop on their conversations. Otherwise, the mission would have to be halted.

"Alright, stop talking."

Ye Feng waved his hand, and all the disciples immediately fell silent.

Heavenly Origin Sea.

After three days of waiting, Tian Meng, floating in the void, launched the first attack, striking at a Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor with only Seven-star power.

"Wow, why me?"

That Immortal Emperor naturally couldn’t withstand Tian Meng’s attack, and was defeated, spitting blood and flying backwards.

Tian Meng smoothly fused the opponent’s mark.

Boom!

Elsewhere, the Qingchen Ancient Immortal made the first move, forming a peak a million miles high to smash at the Six-Eyed Divine King.

"Really, won’t it ever end?"

The Six-Eyed Divine King was furious, rolling his eyes. Even with his full strength, he was blasted away by the green mountain, and the mark on his forehead was extracted and fused by the Qingchen Ancient Immortal.

"Dragon Armor Mighty!"

On another side, the Dragon Armor Elder unleashed his Nine-star Pinnacle power, eliminating the weaker ones.

"Too intense!"

"This is truly a melee!"

Strong people from various worlds watched.

After half an hour of melee, only three powerhouses remained at the scene, namely the Qingchen Ancient Immortal, Empress Tian Meng, and Dragon Armor Elder, all displaying King Nine-star level combat power, well above others.

"How do we fight next?"

The Qingchen Ancient Immortal formed a hand seal, and the towering green mountain behind him seemed capable of suppressing the other two.

"Are you two coming together?" Tian Meng asked.

After displaying her Infinite Combat Power, her combat power could enter the Invincible Supreme Level, ensuring her victory.

"You are really arrogant." The Qingchen Ancient Immortal snorted.

"Or perhaps you two should come at me together. After all, I don’t want to bully the weak." The Dragon Armor Elder stared at Tian Meng and Qingchen Ancient Immortal, beginning to exert force.

Thud!

A pillar of light shot into the sky, with colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet radiating from inside to outside, becoming increasingly intense, and its aura continuously rising.

"You’ve hidden your strength!"

The Qingchen Ancient Immortal was in disbelief.

Now, the Dragon Armor Elder had revealed Invincible Domain Level combat power, capable of utterly defeating him and Tian Meng, both at King Nine-star power.

"It seems I’m not the only one hiding."

Tian Meng displayed Infinite Combat Power, her aura also surging, matching the Dragon Armor Elder.

"What is happening?!"

The Qingchen Ancient Immortal was dumbfounded.

Originally believing they were all King Nine-stars, he had no idea these two could step into the Invincible Domain while he was left standing in place, feeling awkward.

Crack!

Tian Meng and the Dragon Armor Elder struck simultaneously, shattering Qingchen Ancient Immortal’s green mountain.

"Pfft!"

Qingchen Ancient Immortal spat blood from the shock, and the mark on his forehead detached but floated in mid-air instead of flying towards Tian Meng and the Dragon Armor Elder.

"Kill!"

Tian Meng and the Dragon Armor Elder erupted into a fierce battle.

"Nowadays, proving the Dao has become increasingly competitive. Without the combat power of an Invincible Supreme, even a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable is not qualified to prove the Dao. It’s simply crazy."

Many complained.

Misty Peak’s summit.

Shi Lei and the other disciples looked solemn; they didn’t expect the universe to be filled with hidden talents and so many strong beings. Even their entry into the Dao-proving arena offered no significant advantage.

On the straw mat.

Ye Feng drank tea unperturbed, a slight smile on his lips.

The other five Half-Step Heavenly Venerables waited.

Once Tian Meng and the Dragon Armor Elder decided the victor, the King of Destruction would act. At that moment, Ye Feng would also move, using the Dao Divine Water to purify the King of Destruction.

Cosmic Sea.

"Two with Invincible Supreme combat power!"

"Is this universe crazy, requiring Invincible Supreme combat power even for Half-Step Heavenly Venerables to contend?"

"Don’t worry. Anyway, all who prove the Dao will be sniped by the King of Destruction; this universe won’t develop."

The Moon-Worshipper Elder and others discussed in hushed tones.

Despite their words, they still felt a chilling fear.

The potential of the Twin Universe was too great!

Fortunately, they sent the King of Destruction inside to snipe the Dao-provers. Otherwise, after ten years, just the internal force of three Heavenly Venerables, ten Half-Step Heavenly Venerables, and hundreds of Half-Step Heavenly Venerables, with the weakest being a seventh-star King, would be enough to sweep the Cosmic Sea.

"We must kill the Dao-provers!"

The Moon-Worshipper Elder roared.

In the universe, amidst the darkness.

The King of Destruction’s gaze was icy, always vigilant over this Dao-proving conflict, ready to strike at any time.

High above the Heavenly Origin Sea.

The struggle between Tian Meng and the Dragon Armor Elder was quite intense.

Both displayed Invincible Supreme combat power, fighting to an impasse, each technique dissolving the other. It seemed neither could gain the upper hand, leaving onlookers puzzled.

"Who do you think will win?"

"It looks evenly matched; I guess it’ll go on for three days and nights."

"This is going to be a good show."

The bystanders secretly discussed.

"Sorry, I’m sure to win." The Dragon Armor Elder suddenly spoke, his voice turning youthful from old, as an even more terrifying aura exploded from him.

The crowd immediately looked at his face.

Then, they were stunned.

They watched as the Dragon Armor Elder reverted to youth, becoming middle-aged, with his aura doubling. As he transformed into a youth, his aura doubled again, reaching over four times the combat power of an ordinary Invincible Supreme.

"How is this possible?"

"The Dragon Armor Elder actually got younger, and his combat power seems to have increased. What Secret Technique is this?"

The crowd was dumbfounded.

Originally thinking the two were evenly matched, none expected that with the Dragon Armor Elder’s rejuvenation, his combat power surged, defeating Empress Tian Meng in just a few exchanges, leaving her spitting blood.

"What to do, the Empress is about to lose."

The true spirit of the Bodhi Ancient Tree frowned.

Ye Feng remained calm, "I knew the Dragon Armor Elder would win because his cultivation technique makes him stronger the younger he is. However, he suffered from an irreversible aging disease, making him appear old."

The crowd learned something new.

"So the Empress just loses like this?" The Bodhi Ancient Tree seemed unwilling.

"No worries, falling behind this time means winning against others the next time the Dao is proven." Ye Feng looked towards the Heavenly Origin Sea, standing up slowly, "Tian Meng’s defeat is certain, and the Dragon Armor Elder is about to prove the Dao. It’s time to act."

"Alright." The crowd nodded.

High above the Heavenly Origin Sea.

Boom!

The rejuvenated Dragon Armor Elder struck with a palm, shattering Empress Tian Meng’s body, utterly defeating her, her brow mark detaching and being absorbed by the Dragon Armor Elder.

The mark originally belonging to Qingchen Ancient Immortal also floated towards the Dragon Armor Elder.

Buzz!

With the fusion of ten marks, the Dragon Armor Elder completely qualified to prove the Dao as a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable.

"Phew, it worked." The Dragon Armor Elder took a deep breath, his appearance aging rapidly again.

Earlier, he had used a Secret Technique to temporarily rejuvenate and boost his combat power.

But this Secret Technique couldn’t last long.

Thankfully, he had already won.

"Time to withdraw." Empress Tian Meng knew the King of Destruction was about to act, so she quickly retreated, leaving the Heavenly Origin Sea, the future terrifying battlefield.

Elsewhere, in the void.

"I should retreat too." The Dragon Armor Elder immediately flew away, activating the mark on his forehead, preparing to merge it and purify his self-created Law, completing the transformation from Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor to Half-Step Heavenly Venerable.

But just then.

A bizarre figure suddenly appeared behind the Dragon Armor Elder, slashing a sword towards his head at lightning speed.

Crack!

The Dragon Armor Elder’s head, helmet and all, was sliced off, his soul in the sea of consciousness exploded, dying on the spot.

"No!"

He never expected that even after obtaining all the marks and leaving, he was still a step too late.

As the King of Destruction was about to hide after the successful strike.

A sense of crisis suddenly grew, forcing the King of Destruction to turn transparent, attempting to cloak himself with the Cosmic Dao and avoid detection by anyone.

"Too late to escape."

Ye Feng’s cold voice rang out.

Swish!

A whole bottle of Dao Divine Water turned into mist, enveloping the King of Destruction, his transparent body solidifying, unable to hide within the Dao any longer.

"It’s Ye Feng!"

"What material is that, making the King of Destruction unable to cloak within the Dao?"

"Oh no, that’s the Dao Divine Water!"

The Moon-Worshipper Elder and others were dumbstruck.

Previously boasting that the Twin Universe couldn’t create Dao Divine Water, only for their claims to be refuted instantly.

"Don’t panic!"

"The King of Destruction is the pinnacle of Half-Step Heavenly Venerable. Without five or six Half-Step Heavenly Venerable Realm powerhouses, plus a powerful Formation, it’s impossible to trap and kill him."

The Moon-Worshipper Elder shouted.

However, in the next moment.

Ye Feng, the Ancestor of the Ancient Sky Tribe, Yao Yue, True Lord of Fiery Flame, the true spirit of the Bodhi Ancient Tree, and Divine Sword Immortal Emperor, these six Half-Step Heavenly Venerable-level powerhouses joined forces, using a pre-arranged Formation to surround the King of Destruction.

"What the hell!"

The Moon-Worshipper Elder and others were all dumbstruck.

"Why is the Bodhi Ancient Tree still alive? And the Divine Sword Immortal Emperor, why aren’t they dead?"

"I must be seeing things!"

The powerhouses on the Cosmic Sea side were all stunned, finding the scene before them too incredible.

High above the Heavenly Origin Sea.

Ye Feng released a Life Origin Mark into the Dragon Armor Elder’s corpse, allowing his shattered soul to recombine and come back to life.

"Go prove the Dao!" Ye Feng said calmly.

"Thank you!" Realizing it was Ye Feng who resurrected him, the Dragon Armor Elder quickly headed to a deserted spot to merge the Universe Origin Mark and begin his transformation.

At the center of the battleground.

Ye Feng waved his arm, "Everyone, besiege the King of Destruction and make sure he dies without a place to be buried!"

"Kill!"

The remaining five Half-Step Heavenly Venerables immediately attacked. With Yao Yue present, they were powerful enough to face the King of Destruction head-on.

"God, what’s happening?"

"The Divine Sword Immortal Emperor and the Bodhi Ancient Tree are alive?"

At this moment, not only was the Moon-Worshipper Elder dumbfounded, but the strong from all over the Twin Universe were too. For a while, they almost couldn’t process what was happening.
