Chapter 1998: Chapter 1998: Heavenly Venerable Dojo, Key, Stowaway

"Venerable, are you confident of victory? After all, that’s a Twin Universe stronger than an average high-grade Great Universe, and just the Cosmic Consciousness alone is terrifying!"

The Moon-Worshipper Elder couldn’t help but worry.

"Hmph, I’m not entering the Universe in person, so what is there to fear? The ones who die are just cannon fodder." Silver Eyebrow Venerable looked at the wound on his arm, and when he thought of how Ye Feng had severed it, he was instantly filled with rage.

This grudge must be avenged!

"But the Twin Universe has top-tier experts like Ye Feng as well as several Half-Step Heavenly Venerables. Those minions won’t be of any use even if they go in!"

The Moon-Worshipper Elder became even more worried.

"If I was not confident, would I have you gather such an army to invade the Universe?"

Silver Eyebrow Venerable retorted.

The Moon-Worshipper Elder quickly bowed his head.

To be honest, he truly didn’t understand why Silver Eyebrow Venerable was so confident. Could it be that there was a hidden hand? Otherwise, just relying on him and his senior brother, these two Quasi-Heavenly Venerables, they certainly wouldn’t stand a chance against the Twin Universe.

"Why aren’t you going yet?"

Seeing the Moon-Worshipper Elder still dazed, Silver Eyebrow Venerable couldn’t contain his anger and kicked him hard, sending him flying.

"Forgive me, Venerable; I’m going right away."

Terrified, the Moon-Worshipper Elder rolled and crawled as he flew towards a distant island, starting to gather forces.

The Cosmic Sea was too vast.

Numerous beings lived here, and high-level Immortal Emperor Level Cosmic Sea Fish were everywhere. They could all be transformed into slaughter machines and used as cannon fodder in a Cosmic-grade war.

Before long.

The Moon-Worshipper Elder had already gathered an army of over ten thousand Immortal Emperor Level experts, each truly cannon fodder, massive in size, with an intimidating aura, and bodies covered in shiny, hard armor.

They lacked higher intelligence but had been transformed into slaughter machines capable of forming killing arrays.

Their destructive power was astonishing.

But it was not enough!

To invade the Twin Universe, more manpower was needed.

So, the Moon-Worshipper Elder contacted over a hundred Half-Step Heavenly Venerables, conveyed Silver Eyebrow Venerable’s plan, and they immediately went to various places in the Universe to gather more forces.

A calamity was brewing!

...

Ye Feng was unaware that an army was being assembled outside.

At this moment, he stood in a broken starry sky, with countless blood-red stars around, like eerie singular eyes, suspended high in the sky, coldly overlooking Ye Feng at the center of the void.

This was the world behind the light curtain.

"Truly eerie! It’s as if countless sharp eyes are watching me, penetrating me all over. Could this feeling be... the Eye of Insight?"

Ye Feng suddenly thought of this Heavenly Venerable Divine Ability.

It was a Heavenly Venerable level Divine Skill created by the Third Generation Heavenly Venerable of the Twin Universe, the Sun Heavenly Venerable, capable of piercing illusions and pointing directly to the Origin.

"Based on my previous deductions, it seems Emperor Beihe, Zhang Beihan, is the reincarnation of the Sun Heavenly Venerable, and the Sun Immortal Venerable is also Emperor Beihe."

Ye Feng murmured.

He didn’t expect to have arrived at the Sun Heavenly Venerable’s dojo, witnessing countless eerie Eyes of the Sun suspended in the void.

This discovery was exciting.

"Does this mean I have a chance to learn the second level of the Insightful Eye?"

Ye Feng was filled with anticipation.

Immediately, he began analyzing his surroundings, preparing to comprehend the second level of the Insightful Eye through the countless blood-colored Eyes of the Sun.

Buzz!

With Ye Feng’s comprehension, he felt each blood-colored Eye of the Sun emit a peculiar Evil Qi, corroding his body.

"Break for me!"

Ye Feng released his aura, consumed a bottle of precious Dao Divine Water, forcibly purifying this negative effect, making himself extremely at ease.

"This feeling is quite nice."

Ye Feng looked around again, took out another bottle of Dao Divine Water, turned it into mist, and spread it across the starry sky of the entire dojo, expanding the purification range.

Crack!

The first blood-colored Eye of the Sun burst apart, turning into a wisp of blood-colored smoke that drifted towards Ye Feng and merged into his forehead, forming fragmented memories.

Crack! Crack!

More and more blood-colored Eyes of the Sun burst open.

Countless blood-colored smoke was absorbed by Ye Feng, gradually forming a piece of ancient memory.

Ye Feng’s mind gradually immersed in it.

He felt as if he had returned to that ancient era.

...

It was a vast expanse of land.

The ground was illuminated by a blood-red setting sun, dyeing the whole grassland a reddish-orange.

A person sat cross-legged on a stone in the grass.

He was handsome, tall, somewhat resembling the impression of Emperor Beihe that Ye Feng had; undoubtedly, this would be the future Sun Heavenly Venerable.

"Did I gain part of his memories?"

Ye Feng softly murmured.

At this moment, he observed as a bystander the growth of Emperor Beihe’s previous incarnation—the Sun Heavenly Venerable.

"You’re doomed!"

A cold voice exploded.

As his vision shifted horizontally, Ye Feng saw nine blood-red suns appear in the sky, each standing an imposing man with wings on his back and hooked noses.

They were the Nine Great Golden Crows.

Each one was at the Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor Realm.

"You’re here." The Sun Heavenly Venerable smiled. At that moment, he was still a Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor and had not yet Proven the Dao. But even when facing nine same-level powerful opponents, he was composed, clearly having full confidence in his victory.

"How do you want to die?"

One of the Golden Crows coldly reprimanded.

"I won’t die; you will." The Sun Heavenly Venerable clasped his hands behind his back, his momentum unabated.

"Such an arrogant self-assurance, just a mere Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor daring to compete with us Nine Great Golden Crows, really thinks himself a Heavenly Venerable?"

The oldest Golden Crow was furious.

"Boss, stop wasting words with him; let’s kill him right away and let him know that the Prover of this era can only be a member of our Golden Crow Family."

The second Golden Crow said with a dark expression.

"Makes sense!"

The Nine Great Golden Crows simultaneously struck, their Divine Skills shining brightly, illuminating the vast land, seemingly capable of piercing through all of existence, leaving the Sun Heavenly Venerable astonished in secret.

"Such curious methods, they seem capable of piercing through my entire being, seeing through everything."

The Sun Heavenly Venerable murmured.

In the next moment, he performed a hand gesture, and a Curved Bow appeared behind him, along with nine golden arrows, their tips sharp as thorns, causing the Nine Great Golden Crows to change their expressions drastically.

"Sun-shooting Divine Bow!"

"How do you possess it?"

The Nine Great Golden Crows howled.

Legend has it that countless years ago, there was a super powerful being whose name was unknown, who once created a Divine Weapon known as the Sun-shooting Divine Bow, shooting down a supreme powerhouse from the Golden Crow race.

That battle made the Sun-shooting Divine Bow famous.

And the Golden Crow race lay low for millions of years, not daring to rampage across the Universe until the being who crafted the Sun-shooting Divine Bow perished and the bow went missing. It was then that the Golden Crow race rebuilt its strength.

In this life.

The Golden Crow race had developed to its peak, possessing nine Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor Realm Divine Kings, with a prestigious reputation, even compared to the legendary Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom, they seemed unmatched.

This made the Nine Great Golden Crows extremely arrogant.

They believed that the Heavenly Venerable position of this era was destined to be won by one of the Nine Great Golden Crows. As for cultivators from other races, they had no chance of claiming the Heavenly Venerable position.

Yet this young man, at such a young age, had already reached the Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor level, with formidable combat power, being a strong contender for the Heavenly Venerable position.

So...

The Nine Great Golden Crows gathered on this vast land, vowing to eradicate this young man and secure the Heavenly Venerable position.

Little did they expect, he had the Sun-shooting Divine Bow!

A dread originating from deep within their bloodline and soul made the Nine Great Golden Crows frantically retreat, their faces showing horror.

"Are you all scared? Ha, cowards."

The Sun Heavenly Venerable drew the Sun-shooting Divine Bow, almost forming a full-moon shape, then released it.

Swoosh!

An arrow struck a Golden Crow Emperor right in the forehead, causing the soul in its sea of consciousness to violently shake, then explode, as the bloody sun phenomenon behind it instantly collapsed into nothingness.

"Quick, escape!"

"This child... cannot be opposed!"

The remaining eight Golden Crows cried out in terror, flying towards different directions, eyes filled with panic.

"Trying to leave? Too late now!"

The Sun Heavenly Venerable continued to nock arrows, shooting down each of the Hundred-layered Golden Crow Emperors, causing them to collapse.

Bang bang bang!

With the demise of the Nine Great Golden Crows, their origin of laws converged in the air, forming countless bloody Eyes of the Sun, which were obtained by the Sun Heavenly Venerable.

"What is this? Whatever, I’ll keep it first."

The Sun Heavenly Venerable collected the countless bloody Eyes of the Sun and returned to their dojo to comprehend, eventually creating the complete version of the Heavenly Venerable Divine Ability, "Insightful Eye".

Ye Feng finished reading this part of the story.

Swish!

As the surrounding light dissipated, Ye Feng returned to that broken starry sky, where the bloody Eyes of the Sun still remained, intact as ever.

Ye Feng was not surprised.

He began absorbing the surrounding bloody Eyes of the Sun based on the scenes he had previously seen, then saw a figure performing "Insightful Eye" and quickly followed to learn, making remarkable progress.

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

Ye Feng fully learned "Insightful Eye", and wherever his gaze landed, the essence of all things was seen through, then transformed into textual information that appeared before his eyes.

"So powerful, at least a tenfold increase."

Ye Feng thought to himself.

The complete version of "Insightful Eye" had reached ten times the power of the first layer. Although there were no additional effects, it was still quite impressive.

This made Ye Feng feel satisfied.

"Time to leave."

Ye Feng stood up and looked around. Those bloody Eyes of the Sun had completely disappeared, making the starry sky empty, with only one object remaining.

"Hmm?"

Ye Feng suddenly paused.

Because, in the depths of this void, he found a metallic box. Using his Insightful Eye to observe, he was surprised to discover that it contained a key inside.

"What is this..."

Ye Feng’s pupils shrank, and he immediately took the key to the Immortal Realm Continent, where Emperor Beihe had last vanished.

Here, there was a platform.

Ye Feng took out the key, and the platform beneath his feet automatically extended a small protruding platform, a keyhole appearing on its surface. After hesitating for a moment, he inserted the key and turned it ninety degrees clockwise.

Click!

The key was absorbed within, the protruding platform sunk underground, and the altar at his feet transformed into a gateway of light.

"Is this the passage to leave the Universe?"

Ye Feng licked his lips.

After a moment’s hesitation, he passed through the light curtain, prepared to see the world on the other side, and incidentally, see if he could encounter the current Emperor Beihe.

Beyond the light curtain was an endless passage.

Ye Feng continued walking forward, eventually passing through another light curtain, with one foot stepping on the surface of an ancient and powerful terrifying continent.

Crack!

Merely the pressure from over there made Ye Feng feel as if his entire body was about to collapse.

His right foot was already shattered.

This made Ye Feng’s face change drastically.

"This is not the Cosmic Sea! Under the heavens, a place with such terrifying pressure must be the legendary Origin of All Things?"

Ye Feng suddenly thought of this.

My god!

If so, Emperor Beihe went to the Origin of All Things? With such strong pressure here, is he still alive?

Ye Feng suddenly thought of many things.

At the same time.

In the depths of an ancient palace near that gateway of light, a strange eye opened.

"Cosmic stowaways? Hmph! Such a bunch of obstinate fools, mere peasants of the Universe daring to stowaway? I’ll go kill you!"

This person soared into the sky.

As he walked, the pressure he emitted was enough to twist the surrounding void, countless law light wheels appeared, and with just a glance, a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable would be rendered motionless.

This was the Heavenly Venerable Level!

"Welcome the Heavenly Venerable’s return."

Outside, ten Quasi-Heavenly Venerables and thousands of Half-Step Heavenly Venerables knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe.

This person seemed not to see those Quasi-Heavenly Venerables and Half-Step Heavenly Venerable servants, and walked towards the distant gateway of light, preparing to slaughter the stowaway.

But, in the next moment.

That gateway of light disappeared.

The Heavenly Venerable frowned.

"Oh, so it’s a stowaway failure. Can’t slaughter this person, what a disappointment."

This person turned his neck and walked back.

...

In a phantom passage.

Ye Feng stood dazedly looking at the closed passage, then looked behind him, shocked to find an old man’s phantom standing there.

The opponent was none other than the Invincible Old Man.

"Kid, you almost got yourself killed."

The Invincible Old Man said disdainfully.

"Huh?" Ye Feng was dumbfounded.

"You were almost obliterated as a stowaway. If I hadn’t broken the passage, you really would’ve entered the Origin of All Things and then been targeted by countless people."

The Invincible Old Man explained.

It was only later that Ye Feng understood the truth.

This passage was actually a small loophole in the Cosmic Sea, and if not opened at a specific time, he would’ve been obliterated by the Heavenly Venerable guarding the entrance.

This turned Ye Feng’s face pale.

"It seems the Emperor Beihe left at the right time, so he wasn’t treated as a stowaway and is probably still alive."

Upon hearing this, the Invincible Old Man remained silent.

"Senior, thank you for your help this time. But even if that Heavenly Venerable found me, with his means, I estimate he couldn’t kill me, right?"

Ye Feng curiously asked.

"Can’t kill you, but isn’t it easy to trap your consciousness?" Invincible Old Man replied.

This made Ye Feng nod.

Indeed, if his consciousness were to be controlled, it would be equivalent to being permanently sealed, a fate worse than death.

"Alright, go back to the Universe now!" Invincible Old Man waved his hand, and the entire passage collapsed, Ye Feng’s figure vanished, everything was gone.

...

Twin Universe, Immortal Realm Continent.

Ye Feng stood on the shattered altar, the key had disappeared, stowaway was no longer possible.

"What a pity! If the timing was right, I could enter the Origin of All Things directly, with its strong cultivation environment, I’m sure I’d make rapid progress."

Ye Feng sighed.

Immediately, he flew back to the Misty Holy Sect, preparing to consolidate his cultivation and then create a new law.
