The Clan Master Can’t possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 1513: Chapter 1513: Returning to Dongzhou Tianhe Divine Sect

"What is this?" Chu Tianhe was quite curious.

Ye Feng explained:

"This is the Realm Source Treasured Bottle. By creating new species yourselves, you can obtain Void Energy, and then use the Realm Source Treasured Bottle to convert it, allowing you to gain Realm Source, also known as Acquired Primordial Purple Qi. With this item, you can attain enlightenment faster, and even advancing to Immortal Emperor wouldn’t be difficult."

Upon hearing this, Chu Tianhe, Wen Xue, and Wen Yue all momentarily held their breath and quickly accepted the Realm Source Treasured Bottle.

"Brother Ye, is this item very valuable?"

Chu Tianhe suddenly thought of something and quickly asked.

"For you, it might be quite valuable, after all, any Realm Source Treasured Bottle outside can only be exchanged using an Immortal Venerable-level Treasure."

Ye Feng casually explained.

"That’s too expensive!" Chu Tianhe, Wen Xue, and Wen Yue all gasped in surprise.

Even though they had already advanced to Supreme Saint, equivalent to the Immortal Venerable Level, due to their insufficient foundation and poverty, they still didn’t have the funds to forge a Supreme Saint Weapon.

At the moment, Ye Feng casually handed over three Realm Source Treasured Bottles, each akin to a Supreme Saint Weapon, naturally causing them to feel anxious, not knowing what to do.

"We have no money to buy them."

Chu Tianhe hurriedly returned the Realm Source Treasured Bottles to Ye Feng.

But Ye Feng waved his hand, saying, "I am giving these to you; you don’t need to pay."

He then turned the conversation, saying, "If you don’t accept, are you not considering me a friend?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Tianhe became somewhat embarrassed.

Truthfully, he felt quite self-conscious.

He was someone who aspired to be strong; initially, Ye Feng and his cultivation level were quite similar, allowing them to become good friends and face many crises together.

But now, the gap between them was too large.

Ye Feng was already a Thirty-four Layer Immortal Emperor, while they were merely weak Supreme Saints.

Compared to him, they were too weak.

"Take them!"

Ye Feng said.

Since Chu Tianhe was his friend, he directly gifted the Realm Source Treasured Bottles, and the conversion ratio for the Realm Source was adjusted to fifty percent, a fifty-fifty split.

For Lei Wudao and his group, Ye Feng would directly take ninety percent of the Void Energy.

For others, it was eighty percent.

Whereas for Chu Tianhe’s group, Ye Feng only took fifty percent.

This was already quite generous to friends.

"Next, I will tell you how to create new species. With my help, I believe you can make progress quickly. Once you obtain a continuous stream of Realm Source, you can achieve enlightenment by absorbing the Realm Source, accelerating your breakthrough speed by ten to a hundred times."

Ye Feng began to teach.

Tianhe Divine Sect, the backyard.

Here was a section of Mount Sumeru World shrouded by Formation, appearing only a few miles wide from the outside, but inside, it spanned tens of thousands of miles.

Within lay a vast ocean.

Ye Feng, Chu Tianhe, Wen Xue, and Wen Yue stood in the coastal area of an island, starting to create entirely new species by studying ordinary fish schools.

"First, we need to know what a new species is."

"A sign of a new species formation is reproductive isolation, and the ability for this new species to mate naturally and produce fertile offspring."

"Only such counts as a new species."

Ye Feng spoke like a physiological mentor, explaining with clarity, earning the admiration from the three.

"So, a mule isn’t a new species?" Wen Xue cleverly thought of this point.

"Mules are the offspring of horses and donkeys and cannot reproduce offspring, thus they are not a new species." Ye Feng nodded, "If you modify a fish, causing a mutation of its Life Mark, turning it into an entirely new creature that can produce fertile offspring without human intervention—then you’ve succeeded."

"Good, let’s give it a try."

Chu Tianhe, Wen Xue, and Wen Yue immediately took action.

They first caught hundreds of fish, each different species.

"Though they are all fish, possessing streamlined bodies, they each have distinct appearances, for instance, Pomfret is relatively flat, and Swordfish have sword-like bones."

"Fish’s internal structure has discrepancies due to differences in appearance, but not very significant."

"Does this also count as different species?"

The three engaged deeply in research.

Upon hearing their words, Ye Feng said:

"Organisms are classified hierarchically as domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species. The highest level is the five kingdoms: Prokaryotae, Protoctista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia."

"The Swordfish you see is categorized as the Animal Kingdom, Chordata Phylum, Osteichthyes Class, Perciformes Order, Swordfish Family, Swordfish Genus, Swordfish."

"While the Pomfret over there follows the same classification until order, belonging to the Pomfret Family."

"Just like humans, do you think all humans are the same species? Strictly speaking, there are many divisions."

"When categorized down to the lowest level—’species’—even slight differences in bodily structure count as new species."

Ye Feng began explaining.

This was the biological knowledge from his time before crossing.

He’s not sure whether Chu Tianhe, Wen Yue, and Wen Xue can comprehend, but as a creature from the Blue Planet, Ye Feng surely understood.

"Is that really possible?"

Wen Xue patted her clever little head, looking at the Swordfish and Pomfret in front of her, saying, "If I create a fish resembling Pomfret but with a sword bone on its head, wouldn’t it count as a new species?"

"Then I’ll create a three-tailed fish." Chu Tianhe had a sudden idea, laughing mischievously.

"What if I create a fish that’s delicious, whose flesh is tasty whether it’s sashimi or stir-fried—would that count as a new species?" Wen Yue, being quite the foodie, went in this direction.

Ye Feng’s lips twitched.

"You ask me, I don’t know how to reply; overall, once you successfully create a new species, you can obtain Void Energy. In other words, as long as Void Energy flows, it indicates your success; conversely, signifies failure."

Ye Feng added a sentence.

"Alrighty!"

The three found their direction and immediately began research.

Ye Feng picked up a big, tender Pomfret, licked his lips, directly set up a campfire by the sea, spread various seasonings, and roasted it over slow fire.

Soon, the scent of meat filled the air.

Nearby, Chu Tianhe, Wen Xue, and Wen Yue all sniffed, feeling hungry.

Cultivators can refrain from eating.

But that doesn’t mean they won’t crave.

"Forget studying new species, let’s eat first!"

Foodie Wen Yue immediately abandoned her research, ran to the campfire, and personally gave Ye Feng a hand.

"Brother Ye, I’ve brought a few Pomfrets too, shall we roast them together?" Chu Tianhe, quite perceptive, walked over carrying several large Pomfrets in each hand.

"I’ll scrape the scales and remove the gills." Wen Xue rolled up her sleeves, revealing snow-white skin, standing beside Wen Yue to help handle the ingredients.

Ye Feng’s lips twitched.

He didn’t expect these three fellows to be as amusing as when they first met. The estrangement caused by the vast disparity in cultivation levels seemed to diminish because of this fish roasting.

Ye Feng thoroughly enjoyed this moment.

People say the heights are lonely.

This indeed proved true.

Upon reaching a certain height, with no cultivators of the same tier around, finding companions to share heartfelt conversations, to eat, drink, and play together becomes hard.

Therefore, Ye Feng also cherished the present.

After eating and drinking their fill.

Chu Tianhe, Wen Xue, and Wen Yue began their research from fish bones, gills, scales, mouth, and various structures, quickly strengthening their verification.

Three days later.

A completely new fish species, its shape resembling a cross between Pomfret and Swordfish, emerged.

The next moment.

A strand of Void Energy appeared, entering Wen Xue’s Realm Source Treasured Bottle, followed by a smaller strand of purple aura, a wisp of Realm Source.

"I... I did it!"

Wen Xue jumped up excitedly.
