The Clan Master Can’t possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 1989: Chapter 1989: Void Crystal, the One Who Buried an Era

Inside the exquisite bronze coffin.

A person lay there quietly.

He was about two meters tall, with a slender physique, or rather, no physique at all.

This being had a humanoid shape, with a long, thin body, tapering from a thicker top to a pointed base, resembling an inverted cone. His limbs were long and slender, matching his thin torso. However, his head was disproportionately large!

His entire head took up a third of the size of his whole body.

It looked extremely unbalanced.

"What kind of creature is this?"

Everyone looked at the being inside the bronze ancient coffin and found its body proportions extremely bizarre. Its entire body seemed to be carved from some special crystal, shimmering brightly, and emitted a faint aroma that made one feel drowsy.

The surrounding void twisted simultaneously.

"What is this?"

"A person?"

"This looks too strange, doesn’t it? The head takes up a third of the whole body! Moreover, his body is crystal clear, as if made of crystal, with no visible internal organs."

"Junior Brother, are you saying this is just a humanoid crystal and not an actual human corpse?"

"I think so."

Mo Ying and others studied it and concluded that this object was merely a humanoid crystal, unlikely to be a human corpse. As for the aroma that made one feel drowsy, it was probably the material’s influence over the soul.

"Let’s see how hard it is."

Wang Ping’an chuckled and took out a stick to lightly tap the crystal humanoid, producing a crisp sound.

Ding!

The sound waves spread instantaneously, with special spatial ripples sweeping around, accompanied by the unique aroma, causing all present, including Mo Ying, to have their Divine Souls tremble.

"Don’t tap randomly!" Shi Lei hurriedly reminded.

But it was already too late.

Upon hearing the sound and smelling the aroma, everyone’s Divine Souls trembled before they passed out, unconscious, with no idea of what had happened.

A long time later.

Ji Ziling, possessing the strongest Divine Soul, was the first to awaken, finding herself floating near the bronze ancient coffin while Mo Ying and the others remained unconscious.

The crystal humanoid’s corpse was still inside the coffin.

"Thank goodness nothing happened."

Ji Ziling quickly took out elixirs and administered them to Mo Ying, Shi Lei, and the others, gradually waking them up.

"What happened just now?"

"It’s all Ping’an’s fault. Why did you have to tap the crystal humanoid?"

"Alright, let’s not dwell on that. Let’s close up the coffin and bring it back to the Sect!"

"Senior Brother, can we really take this back?"

"This must be a Supreme Treasure. We should bring it back to the Sect and let the Sect Master Uncle decide. After all, we don’t have the capability to handle such a thing solely on our cultivation level."

Shi Lei said solemnly.

Everyone else nodded in agreement upon hearing his words.

Just tapping the crystal humanoid produced a sound and emitted a captivating aroma that could put these Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors into such a deep sleep; this artifact was at least a Half-Step Heavenly Venerable level treasure, far beyond their control.

Rumble...

As they pushed the coffin lid, the bronze ancient coffin closed again seamlessly and was pushed by Shi Lei toward the direction of the Misty Holy Sect.

Void Realm.

The Void Beast, who had been resting with its eyes closed, suddenly opened its bright eyes, reflecting the image of the crystal humanoid, showing a human-like expression on its face.

"Meow..."

"Stop calling, it’s just an external thing, ignore it!" From a distance, beside a stream, the Three-legged Golden Toad responded casually, then continued fishing.

The Void Beast lowered its head, shaking it resignedly.

...

"Sect Master, dual cultivation is so wonderful!"

Xue Rongqing, exhausted, lay sprawled on the Enlightenment Tea Leaves mat, clothes soaked through.

During this time, Ye Feng and she engaged in dual cultivation, and both experienced significant growth. Ye Feng’s progress was reflected in the breakthrough of his Doomsday Law, reaching over ten thousand strands, with only a need to fuse them into one to break through to the next realm.

Xue Rongqing’s improvement lay in consolidating her own cultivation while comprehending new laws.

"Is there any cultivation that isn’t tiring?"

Ye Feng looked at Xue Rongqing and found she had already comprehended over ten Moonlight Laws. These laws naturally existed within the universe, with the first eighty-one strands not requiring creation, merely enlightenment to comprehend.

Once she creates the subsequent nineteen strands, reaching a hundred, she can merge with the Moon Law.

At that time, her combat power will double.

"Next, you should rest first."

Ye Feng prepared to fuse ten thousand strands of Doomsday Law, which would allow him to break through the ninety-first level of the Creation Realm.

But his eyelid suddenly twitched sharply.

At the next moment.

Ye Feng appeared on the open space in front of the Sect Leader’s Great Hall, watching the disciples place a bronze ancient coffin there, decisively activating the Eye of Insight.

[Name: Bronze Ancient Coffin]

[Grade: Quasi-Heavenly Venerable Divine Weapon]

[Description: A bronze coffin created by the Void Heaven Venerable, burying his remains. It emits spatial ripples inside, capable of opening a portal to an ancient world]

[Remark: Supreme Space Treasure]

Upon seeing this, Ye Feng’s pupils constricted sharply.

A Supreme Treasure left by the Void Heaven Venerable!

Interesting!

If I can enter that ancient world, can I obtain the second layer of the Heavenly Venerable Divine Ability "Absolute Void"?

Ye Feng couldn’t help but feel anticipation.

"Sect Master Uncle, we discovered this treasure in the starry sky near the Immortal Realm, with a high grade, seemingly far surpassing a Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor, so we brought it back."

Shi Lei explained proactively and then looked at Mo Ying.

"I was the first to discover it, with a corpse inside the coffin which was quite eerie. Just a tap from Ping’an made us fall into a deep sleep."

Mo Ying supplemented the explanation.

In response, Ye Feng inwardly marveled, quickly examining the bronze ancient coffin, then lightly tapped the coffin lid, causing it to bounce up slightly and move aside.

Ye Feng looked into the ancient coffin.

[Name: Void Crystal]

[Grade: Heavenly Venerable Level]

[Description: The pure energy law body left after the collapse of the true form of Void Heaven Venerable, one of the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables of the Twin Universe. Analyzing this could grant the second layer of the Heavenly Venerable Divine Ability "Absolute Void"]

[Remark: Inheritance Item]

Upon seeing this, Ye Feng was overjoyed.

The second layer of the nine Heavenly Venerables’s divine abilities is very rare, and until now, he only fully learned four: "Infinite Combat Power," "Hand of Destiny," "Hand of Myriad Transformations," and "Heart of Life."

Now, "Absolute Void" in its complete form had arrived!

Bo!

As Ye Feng reached out to touch the Void Crystal, a vast energy surged into his body, pulling his consciousness into a broad and boundless void.

There, he saw a person.

The person had an extraordinary temperament. Earlier, Ye Feng had seen a glimpse of Xutian Kong from the sixth Origin Era through the Shadow-capturing Divine Stone, a system reward.

This was the younger version of the Void Heaven Venerable.

However, the Void Heaven Venerable he saw through the Void Crystal now appeared more mature and was demonstrating a special divine ability directly to Ye Feng.

It was "Absolute Void."

Ye Feng hurriedly followed along to learn.

Misty Peak summit.

Everyone noticed that upon Ye Feng’s touching the crystal humanoid, he continuously absorbed its power, causing the crystal humanoid to gradually become transparent and ethereal, seemingly about to vanish.

Meanwhile, Ye Feng remained standing in place, maintaining the gesture of reaching out to touch the crystal humanoid.

After a long while.

Ye Feng finally withdrew his hand, the confusion in his eyes transforming into clarity as he let out a sigh of relief.

"Finally learned it."

Ye Feng murmured. Today, he finally fully mastered the Heavenly Venerable Divine Ability "Absolute Void." The void domain he created became stronger, capable of banishing someone into the void, preventing their return to the real world.

Such a technique was truly formidable.

"Sect Master Uncle, what did you say?"

Li Jiaojiao blinked.

Ye Feng smiled slightly, "It’s nothing, just absorbed the humanoid Void Crystal and acquired a special divine ability."

As he spoke, he looked again at the copper coffin.

There was a light blue water screen, and passing through it would lead into an ancient world, the place where the sixth Heavenly Venerable, the Void Heaven Venerable, established his Dao.

"Let’s go, follow me!"

Ye Feng was the first to pass through the water screen, and the disciples exchanged glances before following.

...

On an altar.

There was a similar bronze coffin placed there.

Ye Feng and the others gradually emerged, standing on this deep blue altar with a diameter of ten yards, looking around.

The surrounding area was a field of grass.

At a glance, it was endless.

"What is this place?"

"Void Continent," Ye Feng replied.

This place is akin to the Tengang Continent, vast in territory, and there seems to be several Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors, likely the foundation left by the Void Heaven Venerable. It’s just that, it’s unknown if there are any Quasi-Heavenly Venerable Divine Weapons here.

"Follow me."

Ye Feng walked in front, with the disciples closely following, all reaching a nearby large city.

Many ancient humans lived here.

They were similar to the humans of today, but their clothing style appeared ancient, though their way of life was much the same as the humans of today.

"What is this place?"

Ye Feng seized a Heavenly Immortal and asked.

Mo Ying and others listened intently.

Through understanding, they learned that the Void Continent has a history of seventy billion years and currently there are three Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor Divine Kings overseeing the entire continent.

As for the external situation, they didn’t understand.

No one knew what was outside, some even believed the entire Void Continent was the entire world.

"It seems this place is quite isolated!"

Ye Feng basically understood the structure here.

"Sect Master Uncle, should we open the entrance of the Void Continent to connect with the universe and Myriad Realms?" Shi Lei felt that keeping the realms open was more beneficial for development.

"That could be considered." Ye Feng nodded.

However, before deciding to open it, it was necessary to find the three Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor Divine Kings overseeing the Void Continent.

After all, they were the guardians here.

"Let’s go!"

Ye Feng tore through the void, taking the disciples to a grand Ice and Snow Holy Temple.

"Who goes there?"

In the temple, three Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors appeared, staring at Mo Ying and over a dozen other Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors, their eyes instantly filled with shock and fear.

"No need to be nervous, we are not bad people."

Ye Feng grinned.

Upon hearing this, the three Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors were taken aback, realizing that this Ninety-layered Immortal Emperor before them was the leader of those Hundred-layered Immperor-level powerhouses behind him.

This contrast struck them as odd.

"Who are you?" one Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor inquired.

"Ye Feng, Sect Leader of the Misty Holy Sect on the Shenzhou Continent. These are our sect’s disciples, Shi Lei, Huo Yunjie, Li Jiaojiao..." Ye Feng introduced one by one.

At these words, the three’s expressions became even more peculiar.

A Ninety-layered Immortal Emperor capable of leading a group of Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors was indeed... unique!

"How did you all come in?"

A Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor asked in a deep voice.

"Through the bronze coffin," Ye Feng replied.

Three Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors frowned slightly.

"Is there a problem?" Ye Feng asked again.

"Unexpectedly, our Void Continent connected with the outside world, truly unanticipated," a Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor sighed.

Ye Feng suddenly asked: "Was it the Void Heaven Venerable who made your Void Continent retreat from the world?"

This changed the three’s expressions once again.

"It seems, you indeed know something."

Ye Feng was clear about their knowledge.

"Do you know our Heavenly Venerable?" a Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor tentatively asked, "Is he well?"

"He is said to have fallen," Ye Feng stated.

"How could that be?"

The three Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors widened their eyes.

The great Heavenly Venerable, how could he have fallen?

"It seems you’ve secluded yourselves too long." Ye Feng relayed the situation outside.

Learning the truth, the three were stunned.

Unexpectedly, the universe had entered a super Peak Prosperous Age, but the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables had fallen, and now the universe was suffering external threats.

This was not good news.

"Alas, who would’ve thought!"

"Those who buried an era have also fallen, really... unfathomable."

"Heavenly Venerable!"

The three Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors’ eyes reddened.

This scene left Ye Feng and others astonished.

Burying an era? What was this about?

Ye Feng hurried to inquire.

A Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor explained: "Before Lord Heavenly Venerable sealed the Void Continent, he ended a chaotic time in the universe, and buried the remains of many chaotic powerhouses in a certain place on our Void Continent."

"But who knew, the Heavenly Venerable fell!"

"It’s truly unbelievable."

The remaining two Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors were also shocked.

Ye Feng scanned with Divine Sense around, and quickly discovered a graveyard at the edges of the Void Continent, which supposedly was the resting place for countless corpses buried by the Void Heaven Venerable.

"I’ll go see the graveyard."

Ye Feng walked in front.

The three Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor Realm Divine Kings exchanged glances but didn’t stop him. After all, with a dozen Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors, even if they wanted to stop him, they couldn’t!

Moments later, a chaotic region.

The crowd appeared here.

The ground was full of graves, large and small, all containing the remains of Immortal Emperor-level powerhouses.

And this graveyard had a special force field.

It isolated all laws, as if implementing the Heavenly Venerable Divine Ability "Absolute Void."

"This area is strange."

"I can’t perceive any laws."

The disciples whispered.

"This is an Absolute Void, isolating all laws, so naturally you can’t sense them. Any cultivator entering here will see their power significantly drop."

Ye Feng gave a brief explanation.

He then expanded his Divine Sense, always feeling this area held some special treasure, possibly the formula of the Dao Divine Water.

"Look around."

With those words, Ye Feng set off searching by himself.

The disciples stood in place, looking at each other.

The three Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors began speaking with the Misty Holy Sect disciples, exchanging insights, eager not to miss the chance to meet same-level powerhouses.

"This is Enlightenment Tea, please have some."

The disciples took out tea, drank it together with the three Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors, and then exchanged insights, gaining from each other.

Meanwhile.

Ye Feng constantly scanned the grounds of the graves, trying to find treasures among those ancient powerhouses’ remains.

Soon, he focused on a massive tombstone, noticing it bore no inscriptions yet gave a very familiar feeling, quickly releasing his Divine Sense to investigate.
