The Clan Master Can t possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 396: Chapter 396: Wary of the Invitation to the Demon-Slaying Gala (Twelve More)
 

Heavenly Dew has ended.

However, the cultivation of the masses had not ended.

Many knew how to collect the Heavenly Dew.

Quite a few had opened canals, lakes, and reservoirs, all to store the Heavenly Dew as a long-term developmental resource for their families or sects.

Even after the Heavenly Dew had ceased, they were still in seclusion.

For several days after, the majority of the cultivators had not come out, remaining focused on solidifying their cultivation levels or striving for higher realms.

In the southern border area of the Southern River Basin.

Vice Temple Master Huang Jianbai finally returned to the center of the temple hidden beneath the ruined temple, found the Vice Temple Master suspended above an underground lake filled with Heavenly Dew, and hastily knelt down.

“Hall Master, I have thoroughly investigated the situation in Whitefloat City.”

“This Whitefloat City is just an ordinary one-star city, nothing special. However, behind this city sits a powerful force.”

Huang Jianbai hurriedly reported the situation.

“Oh, what kind of force is it?” The Vice Temple Master approached, his face obscured by the light, making his true appearance invisible.

“A one-star Sect known as Misty Sect,” Huang Jianbai said with a serious expression.

Slap!

The Vice Temple Master sent Huang Jianbai flying with a slap and scolded coldly, “Have you lost your mind? How could a one-star force be called powerful?”

Huang Jianbai felt aggrieved.

He touched his burning face, which had already swollen up, and quickly explained:

“Misty Sect is not an ordinary one-star force. Among them, there is an elder who has just broken through to the first layer of the Spirit Sea Realm, and a protector who can toy with top experts close to the Divine Origin Realm, like Xu Huamao and the Glaze King. In addition, their Sect Master Ye Feng, is unfathomable.”

“It is said that Ye Feng has made several moves and has never been defeated,” Huang Jianbai added.

“Hmm?” The Vice Temple Master furrowed his brows, “How could a mere one-star force possess someone capable of suppressing a top expert like Xu Huamao, who is a Half-Step Great Venerable?”

“Hall Master, this information is also what I have inquired about. It is said that not long ago, the Glaze King provoked Ye Feng of Misty Sect, and was later beaten into a pig’s head by Misty Sect’s protector. Xu Huamao fared even worse. In front of the billions of people in County King City, he was beaten until he spat out foam.”

After speaking, Huang Jianbai quickly covered his face with his hands, afraid of being slapped by the Vice Temple Master again.

“If this is a widely known matter, then why have we never heard of the Misty Sect before?” asked the Vice Temple Master, his expression grave.

“The last time we updated the records of the major star-level sects in the Southern River Basin was a year ago, and the Misty Sect happens to have risen strongly in this past half-year,” Huang Jianbai hastened to explain.

The Vice Temple Master said no more.

If what Huang Jianbai said was true, then the Misty Sect was indeed terrifying, and it might require mobilizing a Divine Origin Realm Great Power from the main hall of the Blood Demon Hall to have a chance of suppressing them.

For just a Nishang Palace and Wu Wukai, it wasn’t worth mobilizing a large force.

“Let’s drop this matter for now!”

Eventually, the Vice Temple Master made a decision.

Having dismissed Huang Jianbai, he left the temple personally and spent half a day travelling around the Southern River Basin, gathering information which mostly confirmed what Huang Jianbai had reported.

Then, the Vice Temple Master took out a golden paper crane, blew a large breath of True Yuan into it, and released it.

“This matter is of great importance. It must be reported to the Grand Hall Master.”

Watching the paper crane rapidly fly away, the Vice Temple Master felt slightly relieved.

…

The four great mountains of Misty Sect were shrouded in billowing clouds and mist.

Ye Feng looked at the first and second-generation disciples with smiles on their faces, feeling as sweet as if he had eaten honey in his heart.

“After this Heavenly Dew event, the disciple’s cultivation levels have all reached at least the fifth layer of the Qi Refining Realm, with the highest being Mo Ying, who has reached the fourth layer of the Element Gathering Realm and become an existence on par with a Sect Master.”

“Gong Qingqiu is at the seventh layer of the Element Gathering Realm, while Li Zilong has entered the first layer of the Spirit Sea Realm.”

“Brother Flathead and Lao Song have also stepped into the rank of High-Rank Demon General, while Whitefloat Five Immortals, Iron Claw Dragon Eagle, Golden-furred Squirrel, and other Mountain Guardian Spiritual Beasts have all entered the rank of Lower-Rank Demon General, showing phenomenal progress.”

“Even the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch, holed up in the Nanlu Mountain Range Cave Mansion, has reached the peak of Middle-Rank Demon General.”

“Marvelous, absolutely indescribable!”

As Ye Feng reviewed the sect’s situation, a smile increasingly crept over his lips.

This Heavenly Dew event had yielded astonishing results.

Not just within the Misty Sect, but across the entire Mystique Kingdom, every cultivator in the Element Gathering Realm had advanced by a minor realm.

As for those in the Qi Refining Realm, they had generally advanced by three minor realms.

In Whitefloat City, old-time cultivators in Element Gathering Realm such as the Palace Master of Nishang Palace, the Sect Leader of Tyrant Blade Sect, the Sect Leader of Feathers Sect, and the Deputy City Lord, accumulated their experience over time and charged straight to the peak of the third layer of the Element Gathering Realm.

“It’s just a pity that such heavenly dew is a rare occurrence in a thousand years.”

Ye Feng sighed softly.

If Ancestor Lingmiao had not ascended to the Void Break Realm and established a connection with Jiaoyang Ancient Saint, Mystique Kingdom would never have undergone such a transformation.

With the foundation now laid, it wouldn’t be long before Mystique Kingdom rose to a Four-Star Force.

However, even if Mystique Kingdom were to birth new cultivators breaking into the Void Break Realm in the future, they would not receive a second baptism of heavenly dew.

To encounter such fortune again, someone from Mystique Kingdom would have to achieve the Five Qi Dynasty and become a Saint on the spot.

But that is extremely difficult!

Let alone the modest Mystique Kingdom, even those freaks of nature with Supreme, Divine, and Sacred Grade talent find it hard to become a Saint.

Becoming a Saint isn’t just about talent.

Having immense talent can help cultivators rapidly ascend to the Void Break Realm, but becoming a Saint requires more than just talent.

Perseverance, opportunity, and courage are all indispensable.

“Sect Master Ye, I am Elder Lu Shanyue of Liuyun Sect. It’s been a long time since we last met!”

At this moment, a familiar voice came from outside the shield.

Ye Feng looked towards the source of the voice.

A short distance away, in the high sky, a flying boat hovered.

Lu Shanyue stood at the bow of the boat, and behind him stood a young woman with an explosive figure and a round face.

Liuyun Inner Sect Disciple, Pang Haiyun!

“Eh, it’s only been a few days since we last met, and Elder Lu has already stepped into the fourth layer of the Element Gathering Realm, and Friend Pang, you’ve also advanced to the Element Gathering Realm, congratulations!”

Ye Feng approached them with a smile and greeted the two.

“Thanks to the heavenly dew, I was able to go against the current and achieve my current cultivation level,” Lu Shanyue said, filled with emotions.

His talent was only of the Lower Grade.

Had he not encountered this rare opportunity, it would have been difficult for him to reach the peak of the third layer of the Element Gathering Realm in his lifetime, let alone the fourth layer he attained now.

“Sect Master Ye, hello!” Pang Haiyun greeted him with a delightful smile.

Ye Feng nodded in acknowledgment and asked, “What brings you both from afar?”

“We’re here to invite your sect to the demon-slaying festival in County King City. Don’t tell me, Sect Master Ye, that you have forgotten about this event?” Lu Shanyue said teasingly.

Ye Feng slapped his forehead.

Had it not been for Lu Shanyue’s reminder, he would have almost forgotten about it.

A few months ago, the Misty Sect was awarded first place in Whitefloat City’s demon-slaying conference and was selected to attend the festival in County King City.

Checking the time, it was indeed approaching.

Remembering this, Ye Feng recalled that he had received another invitation and, if he went to County King City, he would attend the gathering at the County King’s Manor.

“So that’s what this is about!”

After pondering for a moment, Ye Feng asked, “When should we leave for County King City, and are there any restrictions on personnel?”

“The event begins in seven days. There are no restrictions on personnel; Sect Master Ye can make the arrangements as you wish. Here is the formal invitation; please keep it safe.”

Lu Shanyue handed a golden invitation to Ye Feng.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Lu Shanyue and Pang Haiyun headed to Whitefloat City, entered the Jade Green Tower, and under the hospitality of Xin Guangxuan and Baihua Xiao, chose the Jade Green Tower’s Oiran…

Of this, Ye Feng was unaware.

Holding the invitation, he stood in the Sect Main Plaza and called together all the elders and disciples of the sect. He announced the event of the demon-slaying festival, stirring interest among everyone.

Thousands of miles away.

The vice temple of the Blood Demon Hall.

The Vice Temple Master finally received a message from the Grand Hall.
