Chapter 1685: Chapter 1685: Rainbow Brush and Dong Huangxiao
Miniature universe.
Core Region of the Holy Land Continent.
Ye Feng quietly hovered here.
After three days and nights of pouring rain over Shenzhou Continent, his spirit underwent a transformation, becoming more resolute and his gaze deeper than before.
"Lei Wudao is finally dead."
Ye Feng murmured to himself.
At this moment, he felt a sense of loss.
Although Lei Wudao had attempted to kill him several times, he was ultimately a top-tier menace, considered one of Ye Feng’s formidable rivals on his journey forward.
Now, his opponent was gone.
Ye Feng felt that he had no rivals.
This peculiar feeling was called lonely invincibility.
"Alas!"
Ye Feng sighed deeply. Although he felt regretful, if time were to rewind, he would still blow up Lei Wudao’s head without hesitation and kill the opponent.
"There’s still one Sword Qi left."
Ye Feng casually summoned it, and the sword-shaped divine light gifted by the Divine Sword Beast swiftly flew over, quietly hovering above his palm, emitting a sharp aura.
"You will be responsible for protecting the miniature universe!"
Ye Feng waved his hand, and the Sword Qi merged into the Realm Anchoring Stele, becoming the defense mechanism of the miniature universe.
"Realm Anchoring Stele, where’s the Rainbow Brush?"
Ye Feng asked.
Buzz!
The Realm Anchoring Stele gently vibrated, then tossed the Rainbow Brush over, floating in front of Ye Feng.
Eye of Insight, activated immediately.
[Name: Rainbow Brush]
[Grade: Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor Level]
[Description: A special auxiliary-type artifact that can communicate with Cosmic Consciousness, of very high grade but serves only an auxiliary function with weak offensive capabilities]
[Remark: Auxiliary Type]
Seeing this, Ye Feng could not help but raise an eyebrow.
"A hundred-layered Immortal Emperor Level artifact, yet with no strong attack power, but can communicate with Cosmic Consciousness. Isn’t this similar to Ma Liang’s Brush?"
Ye Feng blinked.
He decided to fuse the Rainbow Brush with Ma Liang’s Brush, perhaps to forge a stronger Divine Weapon.
"However, it’s a bit difficult at the moment."
"Ma Liang’s Brush is only a thirty-layered Immortal Emperor artifact, it can’t devour the hundred-layered Immortal Emperor Level Rainbow Brush. I need to wait until my strength is sufficient."
Ye Feng planned accordingly.
Next moment.
He split a strand of consciousness, leaving his Divine Soul’s imprint inside the Rainbow Brush, completing preliminary acknowledgment of ownership, and casually tossed it near the Realm Anchoring Stele.
"Use you when needed."
Ye Feng murmured.
In this battle, he devoured the residual physical energy and Law Energy released after Lei Wudao’s demise and acquired a small portion of Thunder Law, all of which he integrated into the Realm Anchoring Stele.
Simultaneously, he also obtained fragments of Lei Wudao’s memory, deeply shocked.
"Dong Huangxiao’s corpse is actually still intact!"
This person appeared most frequently in Lei Wudao’s memory images; Ye Feng originally thought Dong Huangxiao long gone. But who would have guessed that Lei Wudao perfectly preserved her remains inside an Ancient Coffin.
"Lei Wudao is truly perverted!"
Recalling what Lei Wudao had done to Dong Huangxiao’s remains, Ye Feng shuddered instantly.
This person indeed deserved a thousand deaths!
...
Endless Remote Lands.
Ye Feng’s figure appeared out of thin air. According to Lei Wudao’s memory fragments, he effortlessly wiped out this person’s numerous subordinates of Immortal Realm and then crushed various formations here, entering an ancient metallic God Temple and looking up at the Ancient Coffin inside the temple.
Inside lay a stunningly beautiful woman.
[Name: Dong Huangxiao]
[Gender: Female]
[Description: Second on the Invincible Supreme List, Lei Wudao’s secret love, currently without life signs, soul almost dissipated]
[Remark: A sliver of resurrection hope]
"Hiss!"
Seeing that Dong Huangxiao had a sliver of resurrection hope, Ye Feng’s eyes widened.
"It’s truly odd that someone dead so long still has hopes of revival. It seems I must study and find the reason."
Ye Feng secretly astonished.
Speaking of resurrecting people, he could easily revive everyone on a continent, but the premise was they had died recently, and their Cultivation Level wasn’t high, nor were they possessing any extremely special constitution.
Under such circumstances, the difficulty of resurrection was not great.
But if the person was akin to Dong Huangxiao—having Invincible Supreme combat strength as a top genius and dead for countless millennia—it would be very hard to save.
"Heavenly Divine Essence, assist my deduction!"
Ye Feng formed hand seals, surrounded by countless brilliant lights, making him see numerous images floating above Dong Huangxiao’s remains, containing many secrets.
Half a day later.
Ye Feng ceased casting spells.
"Goodness, what a lovesick fool!"
Now, he had discerned the reason.
The reason Dong Huangxiao could still harbor a sliver of resurrection possibility despite being dead for so many years was that Lei Wudao, this lovesick fool, at all costs, acquired various top-level Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to nourish her corpse, maintaining extremely high activity.
Thus, she still had a sliver of soul presence.
Only, this strand of soul was too weak.
To revive was very difficult.
First, one must use powerful Secret Techniques to attract Dong Huangxiao’s Primordial Spirit particles from the Universe gradually, piecing together the soul.
After this, restore her memory.
Finally, perfectly merge soul and flesh, then Dong Huangxiao could be successfully resurrected.
This entire sequence is very troublesome.
Even Ye Feng wasn’t very adept.
"The Three-legged Golden Toad mentioned he knows Dong Huangxiao and Lei Wudao; perhaps handing Dong Huangxiao’s corpse to the Three-legged Golden Toad might yield better results."
Ye Feng muttered.
Then, he collected Dong Huangxiao’s body, examined the mysterious palace, discovering Lei Wudao’s tokens left here, all related to Dong Huangxiao.
Thinking it over, Ye Feng gathered them.
An hour later.
Ye Feng tore through the void, reappearing at the Northern Emperor Star, stepping through a portal here into the Void Realm.
"Haven’t been back in a long time."
Ye Feng looked around and murmured.
Although possessing the Invincible Supreme imprint, allowing access to the Void Realm at any time, Ye Feng had been quite busy during these times, either in arduous cultivation or life-or-death battles, leaving no spare time to revisit the Void Realm.
"You fellow, you’ve returned."
A gentle voice sounded.
Ye Feng followed the sound and saw the Three-legged Golden Toad standing before the Purple Bamboo Forest, grasping a one-meter-long purple bamboo stick with its front claws, looking up.
"Senior, long time no see."
Ye Feng smiled.
The Three-legged Golden Toad rolled its eyes, saying, "I know you’re very busy, and I know you’ve killed Lei Wudao, I must say, you are indeed strong."
"Haha, just average!"
Ye Feng scratched his head.
The Three-legged Golden Toad rolled its eyes and said, "You guy! Too modest, Lei Wudao was a genuine Invincible Supreme, able to defeat strong enemies across many realms. Yet, you can cross three minor realms to defeat him, your combat power is truly terrifying."
"Mainly due to solid foundation," Ye Feng responded.
"Indeed, you are on the cultivation path of the miniature universe within, your foundation is incredibly solid, presently your combat power should be more than ten times that of an Ordinary Invincible Supreme."
The Three-legged Golden Toad analyzed.
