Chapter 2185: Chapter 2185: First Arrival at the Central Continent

Central Continent.

This is the core region of the Origin of All Things.

This continent is vast, its territory a hundred times that of ordinary continents like Haizhou, Tianzhou, and Liangzhou, and it is the largest continent in the Origin of All Things.

The forces here are intricate, and resources are abundant.

The gathered cultivators are also stronger.

In other continents, a Heavenly Venerable can already establish a foothold, a Dao Monarch can be a hegemon, and a Dao Venerable is already the strongest in many continents, becoming a king or ancestor.

However, this is not the case in the Central Continent.

Being a Heavenly Venerable means little; only by becoming a Dao Monarch Realm hegemon can one truly stand firm and create one’s own lineage, passing it down for countless years.

A Dao Venerable is considered decent.

Only a Grand Dao Venerable can be considered strong.

But, at the pinnacle of the pyramid, it is still the Immeasurable.

The Central Continent is a paradise for geniuses and the strong.

Countless cultivators come from other continents to establish themselves here, but most are suppressed or defeated by the powerful here, ending miserably.

Only a few geniuses can rise against the heavens.

Many local cultivators of the Central Continent choose to go to other continents due to the pressure of cultivation here.

Wuyuan Great Dao Venerable is one such person.

Now, he has established the long-standing heritage of Wuyuan City in Shenzhou, breaking through to the peak of Grand Dao Venerable, though he cannot advance further, he lives carefree.

As the saying goes, "Contentment is a virtue."

Many cultivators feel the pressure of the Central Continent is too much, so they go to other continents, where they can thrive based on their cultivation level.

This is one benefit of being content.

But regardless.

The Central Continent remains the most coveted place in the hearts of countless cultivators, and there are always people coming.

At this moment.

Northwest border of the Central Continent.

In a super city named Demon Spirit City, two figures walked out of the Teleportation Hall, finding hundreds of cultivators around them also coming out, all transmitted from other continents.

The weakest are Heavenly Venerables, the strongest are several Dao Venerables, numerous Dao Monarch Realms.

Ye Feng blended in, not standing out.

"Fellow Daoist, welcome to Demon Spirit City, is this your first time here? I am Zhong Wuling, the most famous guide here in Demon Spirit City, I can help you with directions... What, you’ve been here before? More familiar than I am? Apologies for disturbing you."

"Fellow Daoist, welcome to Demon Spirit City..."

Ye Feng noticed a flamboyant young man in a Rainbow Feather Garment mingling among the crowd, continually hailing newly arrived cultivators from the Transporting Holy Temple.

It seems this person is a local guide.

This person is not weak either, with a Third Turn Heavenly Venerable cultivation level.

On other continents, he could establish a lineage and form a great power, but in the prosperous Central Continent, this cultivation level is only enough to run errands.

However, many ignored Zhong Wuling.

Before long.

Zhong Wuling approached Ye Feng.

"Lord Dao Monarch, I wonder if this is your first time visiting our Demon Spirit City, I am the most famous guide here and can provide you with various leads."

Zhong Wuling spoke politely to Ye Feng.

Throughout the process, he kept his head bowed, not daring to look Ye Feng in the eye, let alone sneak a glance at Xue Rongqing.

He was very smart, knowing to be humble.

If he directly faced a Dao Monarch hegemon, or even glanced at their companion, he might be killed by the shock.

"Sumi Dao Source Heart, Spirit-Extend Holy Liquid."

Ye Feng only mentioned these two names.

Zhong Wuling’s eyes widened, realizing this new Dao Monarch hegemon was looking for something.

Sumi Dao Source Heart?

He had indeed heard of it.

"Senior, I know about the Sumi Dao Source Heart, it’s a specialty of our Central Continent, reportedly only found at Mount Sumi, very expensive, not something even a Dao Monarch or Dao Venerable might get."

Zhong Wuling quickly said.

"Even a Dao Monarch or Dao Venerable might not get it, how do you know?" Ye Feng smiled and asked.

"I am the number one guide in Demon Spirit City, naturally, I know information that many do not. Senior, are you looking for the Sumi Dao Source Heart? It can only be obtained from Mount Sumi, far from Demon Spirit City."

Zhong Wuling quickly supplemented.

Ye Feng continued to inquire.

Soon, he learned that Mount Sumi is a super large holy mountain, occupied by the hegemon-level power Great Sumi Monastery, with a Grand Dao Venerable Buddha Ancestor.

Beneath them are many Dao Venerable-level Bodhisattvas.

There are also numerous Dao Monarch Realm Arhats.

Countless Heavenly Venerable-level Sramanas.

"How do we get to Mount Sumi?" Ye Feng asked.

Currently, he only needed Sumi Dao Source Heart, Spirit-Extend Holy Liquid, and a few other materials to complete his Cosmic Sea, items he must acquire.

Great Sumi Monastery has a Grand Dao Venerable Buddha Ancestor.

This power is undeniably strong.

But Ye Feng wasn’t worried.

He was just going to obtain a bit of Sumi Dao Source Heart, not to oppose them.

"Then, what about the Spirit-Extend Holy Liquid?" Ye Feng asked.

"This junior does not know, I have never heard of such Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures around here." Zhong Wuling shook his head repeatedly, waiting eagerly.

"In consideration of the information you provided, I can give you a small reward." Ye Feng casually handed out ten thousand pounds of Origin Stone.

"Thank you, senior, have a safe journey."

Zhong Wuling accepted the Origin Stone, looked up, only to find Ye Feng and Xue Rongqing already gone.

Mount Sumi.

This is a super large holy mountain.

Located in the southwest of the Central Continent, far from Demon Spirit City, but through a Teleportation Array, it only takes half a day to reach the foot of Mount Sumi Holy City.

Here, Ye Feng saw many monks.

Heavenly Venerable presents were called Sramana.

Dao Monarch Realm were called Arhat.

Dao Venerable were called Bodhisattva.

Grand Dao Venerable were the Buddha Ancestor.

Ye Feng learned through inquiries that the Great Sumi Monastery was at the highest point of Mount Sumi, but not everyone could reach that place unless they were acknowledged as a Heavenly Venerable "Sramana" within Buddhism.

Below the Heavenly Venerable, none could go there.

If they were guests, they had to get visiting qualification from the City Lord’s Mansion in Mount Sumi Holy City, which was also demanding.

"It’s really troublesome!" Xue Rongqing said.

"Indeed troublesome." Ye Feng nodded.

Taking such a long detour, they had not even touched the Sumi Dao Source Heart yet, and still had to continue finding their way.

Mount Sumi Holy City, City Lord’s Mansion.

Ye Feng revealed his Dao Monarch Peak aura and smoothly met the City Lord with Xue Rongqing.

He was an old Dao Venerable.

His name was Master Shangyun.

"So it’s you, Misty Dao Monarch my friend, are you and your companion here to worship Buddha?" Master Shangyun asked.

"Not here to worship, but to find the Sumi Dao Source Heart." Ye Feng went straight to the point.

"What, you’re looking for the treasured Sumi Dao Source Heart at Great Sumi Monastery! I’m afraid, with your cultivation and wealth, it might be difficult!" Master Shangyun shook his head.

"Difficult? Why?" Ye Feng asked.

"Great Sumi Monastery’s Buddha Ancestor values affinity, if you want to get the Sumi Dao Source Heart, you’ll need enough affinity with Great Sumi Monastery."

Master Shangyun extended his hand, rubbed his fingers.

Ye Feng understood instantly, took out an Origin Stone: "How much affinity is needed?"

"Perhaps a trillion in affinity." Master Shangyun said.

"A hundred billion? It seems I truly have a connection with the Great Sumi Monastery!" Ye Feng said with a smile.

Isn’t it just about Origin Stones?

He has plenty of those.

Recently, he sold many Genius Forest Secret Methods to other Dao Monarchs, Dao Venerables, and Grand Dao Venerables, and his stockpile of Origin Stones has reached the trillion-level.

A hundred billion is not something he lacks.

Master Shangyun was greatly shocked to see that this Misty Dao Monarch, who is merely at the Peak of the Dao Monarch stage, could produce a hundred billion Origin Stones, making him look at Ye Feng in a different light.

"This person must be the wealthy young master of some hidden power, otherwise, he couldn’t be this prosperous."

Master Shangyun thought to himself.

Even though Ye Feng was disguised as a middle-aged man with three strands of long beard, due to having Xue Rongqing, a beautiful and enticing dual cultivation companion, Master Shangyun overlooked Ye Feng’s appearance and regarded him as a wealthy young master.

"Since Little Friend Misty Dao Monarch is so connected with the Great Sumi Monastery, tomorrow, I will take you up the mountain."

Master Shangyun said with a smile.

"That’s great!" Ye Feng laughed.

Money can indeed make the devil turn the millstone.

This saying rings true.

As for the possibility of someone attempting to rob him, Ye Feng had no worries.

He could directly negate the attacks of a Dao Venerable.

And after breaking through the limit for the fourth time and advancing to Half-Step Dao Monarch, Ye Feng’s true strength could rival an ordinary Dao Venerable, having no cause for concern.

In the end...

He also had the Sword-shaped Jade Pendant of the Feng Ye Sword Venerable, which could unleash three streaks of Sword Qi, capable of slashing an Immeasurable Venerable. If the people of the Great Sumi Monastery acted rashly, he wouldn’t mind letting them experience the terror of the Feng Ye Sword Venerable.

Under the night sky.

Ye Feng and Xue Rongqing stayed at the guest quarters of the City Lord’s Mansion of Great Sumi Holy City, sitting cross-legged on the bed.

"Sect Leader, I want to have a baby with you."

Xue Rongqing pounced into Ye Feng’s arms, her soft touch and refreshing scent mesmerizing him.

However, Ye Feng still refrained from acting.

"The matter of having a child isn’t urgent for now."

Ye Feng stated that he wasn’t ready yet.

Xue Rongqing was rather helpless, so she did what she was good at, massaging Ye Feng’s shoulders and back until late at night.

"Let me first help you break through to the Dao Monarch Realm."

In the latter half of the night, Ye Feng led Xue Rongqing into the Ten Thousand Times Time Acceleration Formation, preaching to her and using various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to forge a stronger Dao Foundation for her.

The next morning.

Xue Rongqing successfully fused nine Laws, advancing to Half-Step Dao Monarch, which brought about a vast Heavenly Tribulation, drawing the attention of all the cultivators in Great Sumi Holy City.

"Someone is undergoing the Dao Monarch Tribulation."

"Look, it’s an exceptionally beautiful woman."

"Wow, she’s so beautiful, seeing her makes me want to discard all my dual cultivation companions and cultivate with her."

"Shush, lower your voice. That is a companion to a distinguished guest of the City Lord’s Mansion. Daring to joke about her, do you not want your head on your shoulders?"

The crowd buzzed with discussion.

"Has she broken through?" The City Lord of Great Sumi Holy City, Master Shangyun, was astonished. Early in the morning, he was brewing tea, just about to take a sip when he heard the sound of thunder.

With a sweep of his Divine Sense.

He realized it was Xue Rongqing breaking through.

"Perhaps it’s the effect of dual cultivation."

Master Shangyun thought to himself, realizing that Xue Rongqing had a rare Moon Holy Body.

But, because Ye Feng gave Xue Rongqing a Concealment Jade Pendant, even Master Shangyun, a Dao Venerable, couldn’t tell that Xue Rongqing was still a maiden.

Atop the peak of Mount Sumi.

Here stood a grand monastery, with a heavenly terrace at the center of the peak, where a lotus-form Dao Platform lay, and atop it sat a gigantic Buddha that was a hundred meters tall.

He was the Buddha Ancestor of the Great Sumi Monastery.

A top-level hegemon of the Grand Dao Venerable level.

He opened his eyes, gazing down at the sky above Great Sumi Holy City, his gaze falling upon Xue Rongqing, recognizing her as a Moon Holy Body, with profound foundations.

"Which force’s prodigy is this?"

The Buddha Ancestor of the Great Sumi Monastery pondered.

The Central Continent is gathered with numerous strong cultivators.

There might be Dao Monarchs and Heavenly Venerables around, and they possibly have Dao Venerable or Grand Dao Venerable level backing; naturally, they cannot casually make a move.

Of course, people with such backing are still few.

But if you happen to offend someone who does have powerful backing, it could easily lead to catastrophic consequences.

Therefore, even though the Buddha Ancestor of the Great Sumi Monastery thought the Moon Holy Body was quite good and could be a companion for his illegitimate child, it was still wise not to provoke the other party.

Thunder continued to roar!

Xue Rongqing was still undergoing the tribulation.

Thanks to Ye Feng’s nurturing, her combat strength was also immensely fierce, reaching about thirty to forty times that of an Ordinary Invincible Supreme Venerable, her physique powerful, easily devouring the Heavenly Tribulation.

This scene was astonishing.

An hour later.

Shrouded in a layer of sacred light, Xue Rongqing returned to Ye Feng’s side, gently taking his arm.

"Sect Leader, I have broken through."

"Mm, very good." Ye Feng praised.

Currently, more than ten members of the Misty Holy Sect had broken through to the Dao Monarch realm, including Hu Feifei, Xue Rongqing, Mo Ying, Huo Yunjie, and Long Tianxing...

More and more people are advancing to Dao Monarch.

Ye Feng felt that he couldn’t fall behind either.

Fortunately, he finally broke the curse, advancing to Half-Step Dao Monarch; as long he gathered rare materials like the Sumi Dao Source Heart, he could officially advance to Dao Monarch.

The road to future breakthroughs will be swift.

Because, henceforth, his breakthroughs had no bottlenecks; as long as the energy was sufficient, he could directly break through.

"Congratulations to Little Friend Misty Dao Monarch’s companion for becoming a Dao Monarch Realm hegemon, bound to grow stronger in the future."

Master Shangyun approached, congratulating them.

"Thank you." Ye Feng said with a smile, "Master City Lord, can you take us to the Great Sumi Monastery now?"

"Please, follow me." Master Shangyun nodded.

Yesterday, to be certain, he had asked Ye Feng to confirm his assets, and Ye Feng had casually produced a pile of Origin Stones, amounting to over a hundred billion jins.

However, he quickly put them away.

This step was referred to as "asset verification." Only after confirming that Ye Feng had sufficient "fortune" would Master Shangyun take him to the Great Sumi Monastery.

Ye Feng gazed towards Mount Sumi.

It was an enormous mountain range stretching for billions of miles, growing higher towards the center, with peaks stacked upon peaks, each higher than the last beyond the mountains in front.

Moreover, the peaks grew steeper towards the center.

The trio continued flying, soon arriving at the main peak towering millions of miles above the ground.

The peak was a plateau.

It spanned a hundred li around, with an enormous and magnificent temple complex, boasting over ten thousand Heavenly Venerable-level monks, extremely powerful.

Entrance to the Great Sumi Monastery.

There was a plaque here.

Ye Feng looked over and saw the characters inscribed at the center:

Great Sumi Monastery.

These characters contained the Great Dao of heaven and earth. Just a glance made Ye Feng’s Divine Soul tremble, and he instantly realized that these characters were the work of the Buddha Ancestor of the Great Sumi Monastery.

"Master City Lord, why the sudden visit?"

A Dao Venerable expert emerged.

"Cleanspirit Bodhisattva, this is Little Friend Misty Dao Monarch, and this is his companion Xue Rongqing, both of whom share a great connection with the Great Sumi Monastery." Master Shangyun cheerfully introduced.

"Oh, such a great connection?"

Cleanspirit Bodhisattva looked at Ye Feng, finding the handsome middle-aged man with three strands of long beard particularly pleasing.

They indeed favored people with such connections.
