When Zheng Qi saw this scene, he was incomparably shocked in his heart.
But Coldfeather smiled and said, "This boy wants to make up for all of these 100 years of delayed cultivation! Looks like he's ending soon. It's also this old man's turn now. Tsk tsk, if this old man can also break through like him, how good would it be!"
Chapter 1607 - Benefiting for Generations to Come
Ye Yuan's realm rose all the way until it reached the point that it just could not breach the next realm any longer. By then, he already stopped devouring spiritual energy.
Finally, his realm also reached peak grand completion Origin Deity Realm. He was only a step away from the Divine Lord Realm.
Seeing Ye Yuan finally stop breaking through, the others let out a sigh in relief.
"My goodness, it finally stopped! I was even wondering what if he keeps on breaking through all the way like that!"
"Elder Ye is really a freak. It's still my first time hearing that someone can break through like this within the Origin Deity Realm!"
"What the hell do you guys know? Elder Ye is unleashing his vast acc.u.mulation over the years! With his talent, how could it be possible to not break through for 100 years? He acc.u.mulated things for a hundred years. That's why there was this magnificent feat today!"
"Makes sense. But a hundred years' time, breaking through from the middle-stage Origin Deity to the peak grand completion Origin Deity, this is also very heaven-defying."
...
Heavenly Eagle Imperial City's spiritual energy finally returned to tranquility. The spirit gathering formations were also slowly recovering the inner city's spiritual energy.
During these few days, Ye Yuan had devoured no idea how much spiritual energy. Even the spirit gathering formations practically could not quite catch up to his speed of devouring already.
His breakthrough this time was really eating a fat piece of meat in one mouthful. Even if those Divine Lord Realm powerhouses were breaking through, they could not be compared with his speed of absorbing spiritual energy.
"Hahaha, congratulations, Elder Ye, for attaining the Dao and returning back!"
"Elder Ye is truly a peerless genius, to actually only use a hundred years and fully understood spatial laws!"
"Congratulations, Elder Ye!"
...
The group of elders all came forward to greet, congratulating Ye Yuan.
They knew that with Ye Yuan returning domineeringly this time, the momentum of his ascension was already unstoppable by anyone.
Moreover, he even brought a great deity back.
They heard with their own ears that the Martial Tower's head elder, Zheng Qi, actually called that old man as his grandmaster!
At this time, Zheng Qi also brought Coldfeather and walked over. He directly clasped his hands at Ye Yuan and said, "Elder Ye, recovering Grandmaster Coldfeather who went missing for over 100 thousand years, this Zheng is endlessly gratefully!"
Ye Yuan's brows raised up and revealed a hint of surprise and said with amazement, "Brother Cold … uh, Senior Coldfeather is actually Head Elder's grandmaster?"
The moment he opened his mouth, Ye Yuan discovered that something was not quite right.
The Martial Tower's head elder called him as Grandmaster Coldfeather, but Ye Yuan called him as Brother Coldfeather. Wasn't this clearly taking advantage of everyone?
It still did not matter inside the spatial inheritance, but returning to the imperial city and learning of Coldfeather's seniority, he naturally could not simply call him casually anymore.
Even though Ye Yuan had his pride, it did not mean that he did not understand the ways of the world.
If he called like this, even though others would not say anything on account of Coldfeather's face, they would definitely be very unhappy in their hearts.
After all, he was just an Origin Deity Realm martial artist.
Although Ye Yuan did not fear to make enemies, provoking enemies unnecessarily like this was clearly not a wise move.
Ye Yuan was having a headache on how to address him. But who knew that Coldfeather was totally unconcerned and said, "Kid, you don't need to be courteous with me. Let's each do our own thing! In the future, you still call me Brother Coldfeather. As for the rest, they go about as they should. This old man was trapped for over 100 thousand years, so why would I still care about such trivial formalities? Uh, Zheng Qi is the apprentice of the disciple that I was most proud of. I also didn't expect that over 100 thousand years passed, he actually became the Martial Tower's head elder."
Coldfeather did not care, but the faces of Zheng Qi and the other elders were rather awkward.
Your elderly self already said so, how could we dare to say anything more?
Ye Yuan was not a bashful person either. He also smiled and said, "Looks like Brother Coldfeather's lineage is indeed all talented people! Even though I and Head Elder don't interact much, I've also long heard that his martial prowess is unmatched, a sea-stabilizing divine needle of Heavenly Eagle Imperial City!"
The moment Coldfeather heard, he could not help saying angrily, "Let you, Younger Brother, had a laugh! What do you call this? I, as the grandmaster, am only third-layered heaven Divine Lord, while he, the grandpupil, is already ninth-layered heaven Divine Lord!"
Each sentence that Coldfeather said, Zheng Qi's expression would be a shade more looking embarrassed.
But this kind of phenomenon indeed made people rather speechless.
Not that situations of surpassing one's predecessors did not happen, but it was just that Coldfeather's talent back then had amazed the entire imperial city.
Who knew that the affairs of the world were inconstant? Over 130 thousand years passed, he only cultivated to third-layered heaven Divine Lord.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Coldfeather doesn't need to be like this. With your current realm comprehensions, breaking through to become a ninth-layered heaven Divine Lord is merely a matter of time. Misfortune may be an actual blessing. Perhaps you can unleash your acc.u.mulations and break through to the Celestial Deity Realm!"
Coldfeather chuckled and said, "That's true! If this old man wasn't trapped inside the spatial inheritance back then, I might really have a possibility of breaking through the fetters now and assault the Celestial Deity Realm."
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Coldfeather, you and I are also considered fated. When I break through to the Divine Lord Realm, I'll help you refine medicinal pills and aid you to break through realms as soon as possible!"
Coldfeather froze, only then, recalling that Ye Yuan's identity seemed to be a Pill Tower's elder and not Martial Tower's elder.
He was rather curious on what basis Ye Yuan could become the Pill Tower's elder.
Seeing Coldfeather wondering, Zheng Qi said, "Looks like Grandmaster still doesn't know about Elder Ye's freakish aspect. A hundred years ago, he refined a void spirit divine-grade Vastsun Universe Pill. It rocked the imperial city for some time back then!"
Coldfeather's pupils constricted and he exclaimed, "Void spirit divine-grade! Vastsun Universe Pill! You aren't joking with me, right?"
Zheng Qi smiled and said, "How can Zheng Qi dare to crack jokes with grandmaster? This matter, all of the elders present are witnesses."
Coldfeather drew a cold breath and pointed at Ye Yuan as he said speechlessly, "You, kid, are truly a freak! This old man was known as Heavenly Eagle Imperial City's number one genius whose accomplishments surpassed ancient and modern times back then. But in front of you, it's simply not worth mentioning!"
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Merely luck! Oh, right, Head Elder, the Martial Tower's spatial inheritance, I've already improved it. In the future, if somebody wants to go in and comprehend spatial laws, it wouldn't be so dangerous anymore. That senior who left behind the inheritance is too extreme. Although the method of inheritance is very profound, it's also too dangerous."
Ye Yuan did not wish to entangle on this topic and could only change topics.
r /> Zheng Qi's entire body trembled and he said in disbelief, "Is Elder Ye serious? It … It can't be joked around!"
Not just Zheng Qi, all of the elders and deacons by the side, even the protectors a little further away, after hearing this news, each and every one of them was incomparably excited.
To say that they were not moved by spatial laws, this large breadcake placed in their house, that was false.
But this large breadcake was poisonous!
Eat one bite and you would be dead, who dared to eat?
Back then, including Coldfeather, didn't they all entered the spatial inheritance because of spatial laws, this supreme law?"
In the end?
Apart from Coldfeather being trapped inside, none of the rest came out!
But now, Ye Yuan said that he improved the spatial inheritance. How could this not drive them crazy?
Ye Yuan laughed in spite of himself and said, "Head Elder, this kind of major thing, how can this Ye dare to joke around? However, after this Ye improved it, although the spatial inheritance is much more gentler, the difficulty of comprehension also greatly increased. With this Ye's current realm, I can only do it to this step."
But Zheng Qi did not care and said with an excited look, "Elder Ye truly did a great thing that benefits the Martial Tower for generations to come!"
Chapter 1608 - Unexpected Departure
At the Ye Manor, a young man gave Ye Yuan a bow respectfully and said, "Elder Ye, Zhou Wei has already been banished to Jiang Gu City. His cultivation was sealed and to be enslaved for 300 years. As for Song Qiyang, Head Elder did his utmost to protect him. However, Head Elder made him kneel for a month in the Pill Tower's plaza, so as to appease Elder Ye's fury."
After Ye Yuan listened, he said coolly, "Ruo Xu that old punk making concessions in order to gain advantages! However, kneeling for a month is also a considerable punishment to Song Qiyang. You've worked hard, Tianping.
The young man bowed and said, "Sharing Elder Ye's worries isn't hard."
Ye Yuan glanced at him and said with a smile, "Tianping, actually, with your talent, you don't need to become my follower. Why do you have to put yourself at a great inconvenience?"
This young man was called Ning Tianping, the Ning Family young generation's number one person!
Even Ning Fangrong also could not match up to Ning Tianping's talent.
Back then, Ning Lixiao spent a price of 3.5 billion and won the Vastsun Universe Pill, it was to give it to him.
After consuming that Vastsun Universe Pill, Ning Tianping realized the extraordinariness of this medicinal pill very quickly.
He was still just a grand completion Origin Deity at that time, but he comprehended things very quickly, directly crossing over half-step Divine Lord, this threshold, and then he became a first-layered heaven Divine Lord powerhouse.
After breaking through, his cultivation was like turning on a hack, his strength advancing by leaps and bounds.
In a short less than 100 years' time, he already cultivated to become a peak second-layered heaven Divine Lord!
Such cultivation speed was simply outrageous to hear.
Ning Tianping realized very quickly that this was the Vastsun Universe Pill's effect.
He originally wanted to thank Ye Yuan, but hearing that Ye Yuan died inside the spatial inheritance, he was even upset for quite a while.
But this time, Ye Yuan returning domineering shook the entire imperial city.
When Ning Tianping heard that they were going to find another follower for Ye Yuan, he took the initiative to request for the assignment.
Originally, with his identity, there were only others being his attendants. Where was there him being other people's attendant, this sort of thing?
Even those elders did not dare to use Ning Tianping as an attendant too.
But the Ning Family held a supportive attitude toward this matter and even helped Ning Tianping campaign in many ways, making him stand out from among the numerous protectors.
Now, wanting to become Ye Yuan's follower was not that easy of a matter anymore.
In the past, Ye Yuan was merely a heaven-defyingly talent to them.
Ye Yuan could only refine rank three divine pills, which was of no use to them at all.
But now, Ye Yuan was only a step away from becoming a Four-star Alchemy God.
Once he successfully broke through, that significance was totally different.
With the benefits of a favorable position, whoever could become Elder Ye's follower, the benefits obtained would naturally be unimaginable too.
Hence, arranging for Ye Yuan a follower this time could be said that everyone had long racked their brains over it already.
It was a shame that Lin Dong could only sigh at home like a little wife now.
A massive opportunity was once placed in front of him, he did not go and cherish it. Losing it now, it could only be too late to repent.
He did not put in much effort with Ye Yuan. It was more or less because Ye Yuan was a Three-star Alchemy God, just due to this reason.
But he never dreamed that this day came so quickly.
In a short 100 years, Ye Yuan broke through to the peak grand completion Origin Deity from the middle-stage Origin Deity.
Wanting to turn back now was already impossible.
Moreover, when Ye Yuan was trapped in the spatial inheritance back then, he even reproved Li-er they all before.
Ning Tianping smiled and said, "100 years ago, our Ning Family won the bid for Elder Ye's Vastsun Universe Pill. Everybody said that the Ning Family was using divine essence stones to repay your grace. Actually, I also thought so at that time. But when I consumed the Vastsun Universe Pill and broke through to the Divine Lord Realm in one stroke, I knew that it was actually our Ning Family who took advantage of Elder Ye! That medicinal pill's value simply cannot be measured using divine essence stones."
Ye Yuan also smiled and said, "So, you're here to repay the kindness?"
But Ning Tianping shook his head and said, "I know that Elder Ye doesn't need repaying of gratitude. There's also nothing to hide here. Right now, in the entire imperial city, who doesn't hope to come join as Elder Ye's followers? As long as they follow you, there will be limitless possibilities in the future. Putting it bluntly, everyone actually wants to benefit from your light!"
Ye Yuan looked at Ning Tianping rather surprisedly, not expecting that he would actually be so honest.
Knowing was one thing, saying it in front of his face was another.
At the very least, Ning Tianping's forthright personality made Ye Yuan admire greatly still.
If Ning Tianping said some ostentatious and pretentious words to brush him off, his impression of the other party would naturally be much worse.
Toward him, he naturally would not trust him so much anymore as well.
Toward people he was unfamiliar with, Ye Yuan naturally had to observe and study them a bit.
Just like Lin Dong, Lin Dong helped him deal with Qin Xiao. But Lin Dong was filled with misgivings and fear when encountering Song Qiyang, so Ye Yuan would not give him another chance.
Regarding Ning Tianping, even though he was a member of the Ning Family, if he could not pass his test, he similarly would not do.
The two people were currently talking when Yue Mengli and White Light few people suddenly came over.
When Ye Yuan saw these few people's battle array, he could not help getting a fright.
"What's with you guys?" Ye Yuan said curiously.
Ning Tianping was very sensible, seeing this scene, he immediately took his leave and left. This made Ye Yuan's impression of him become much better again.
The few people 'bore down menacingly', but when they arrived in front of Ye Yuan, they suddenly collectively went mute.
They looked at each other, exchanging glances, and actually did not know how to start talking.
This appearance made Ye Yuan become more curious.
"Sister-in-law, better
for you to say!" White Light said.
Yue Mengli thought about it and suddenly mustered up her courage and said, "Big Brother Yuan, actually, coming to find you, we want to tell you that we want to go out and train by ourselves."
Ye Yuan's expression changed when he heard that and said in a solemn voice, "No way!"
Powerhouses were abundant like clouds in the Heavenspan World, Yue Mengli their bit of strength, going out alone to train was simply no different from seeking death.
One should not look at how the Heavenspan World was very well-ordered. Actually, dangers were everywhere.
Just take Coldfeather, their generation of powerhouses, how many were truly able to live move than 100 thousand years?
Li-er the few of them, if something were to happen to one of them, he could not forgive himself for life.
Ye Yuan's attitude was clearly long within Yue Mengli's expectations.
"Big Brother Yuan, Li-er knows that you have our interest at heart. But being under your protection all along, we can forever only look at you from behind! With your talent, the disparity between us will get greater and greater. All the way until the end, we are no longer able to keep up with your footsteps. I know how much hardsh.i.p.s you suffered for Elder Sister Lingxue these few years, how much pressure you endured. We don't hope to forever only be able to quietly watch you from behind and not be able to do anything! We hope that one day, we can fight side by side with you and not just be nervous with worry behind you," Yue Mengli said.
White Light also spoke up at this time and said, "Big Brother, back then, we rampaged in all directions in the Immortal Grove World. At that time, I could still keep up with your footsteps. But now, I can only cheer you on at one side? Do you know how torturous it is for me? When at the Immortal Grove World, when that Heavenly Sin Heretic God appeared, you don't know how powerless and in despair I felt! I don't hope to forever only be able to pray for you to appear when I encounter danger! You can save us once, save us twice, but in the future?"
Ye Yuan looked at them, opened his mouth, but he did not know what he should say.
