Of course, it might not be myself...

It wasn't even Yang Fan!

Instead, it's Liang Yuxian... or Liang Yuyan!

The Great Evolution Immortal Venerable's ability to see into the future likely only scratched the surface, overlooking the crucial details.

If Ye Feng's deduction is correct, Yang Fan must possess a treasure that can awaken a balanced spiritual root and enable cultivation...

That's it?

One must also cultivate while remaining a virgin...

The once mysterious and powerful Great Evolution Immortal Venerable in his heart has now been completely dethroned.

So, it seems that the threat of this evil god can actually be resolved!

Of course, it's also possible that it only poses a threat to them.

The two of them are considered to be cultivating quickly under Ye Feng's guidance, but they are only at the Golden Core stage. They will need a lot more time to grow stronger.

Even if they grow up and succeed, whether they can solve the problem depends on fate.

Now the evil god has consciousness and a large number of subordinates.

Some of these subordinates are themselves the patriarchs of the sect!

Not to mention, there were also strange beasts lurking nearby, watching with predatory intent...

One wrong move and the cultivation world is finished; there's no tomorrow or future left.

"Later, the cultivation world descended into chaos... In the end, even the Heavenly Origin Ancestor perished. Then, for reasons unknown, the war gradually subsided on its own."

Even low-level cultivators are forbidden from revealing matters concerning evil gods. Zhou Yongcheng was unaware of this, but Ye Feng was clear about it. This was likely the result of the alliance issuing decrees to restrain the major sects.

Sects with wandering immortals were all restrained, while sects without wandering immortals dared not cause trouble.

With the evil god issuing new orders, the war naturally subsided.

"Senior Brother, the days ahead are likely to be chaotic. I have obtained some demon essence stones. Although they cannot be used directly for cultivation, they can still be used for burning in the array. From now on, open all the arrays to prevent any unforeseen events!"

As he spoke, Ye Feng took out one hundred demon essence stones brimming with spiritual energy from his spatial storage and handed them to Zhou Yongcheng.

"My senior brother entrusted me with his entire fortune before, and now he's repaying me thirtyfold,"

"You...where did this come from?"

Zhou Yongcheng wasn't this surprised when he saw him at the Mahayana realm before, but now that he saw a hundred demon spirit stones, he felt somewhat incredulous.

Everyone could see Ye Feng's confidence in his cultivation advancement.

His love for spirit stones was genuine and without any pretense.

But in just half a year, he was able to produce so many demon essence stones that were comparable to immortal stones...

Although the spiritual energy in the Demon Essence Stone is completely different from that in the Lingyu Realm, the energy within it can still be absorbed and released by the formation without any problem!

"Where did the passage to the demon realm come from?!"

Ye Feng didn't hide anything and told them about the demon race closing the passage.

Zhou Yongcheng nodded in realization, then frowned again.

"Even the demon race is starting to flee... It seems the situation is really not optimistic. But your way of making money... is a bit too underhanded. If you're not careful, you might provoke them into a rage, and then you won't be able to deal with it!"

"Don't worry, if they had any guts, they wouldn't have run away in such a hurry... However, the situation isn't very optimistic right now. I came back this time to ask my senior brother for help in finding me a place with abundant Daoist energy where I can consolidate my cultivation... Also, if there are any level seven or higher ores in the sect that can improve the quality of magic weapons, please help me collect some!"

Although this trip back home is long enough, it shouldn't be wasted.

......

Zhou Yongcheng quickly fulfilled Ye Feng's request.

The cultivation grounds were formerly the cave dwellings of the Immortal Venerable Elders.

Although its effects cannot compare to those of the Dragon Horn Gem or the Nine Palaces,

But combining the two can save a lot of time.

Ye Feng roughly estimated that it would take about a month and a half to advance to the fourth level of the Mahayana stage...

However, he estimates he'll be spending most of these three months in the cultivation space, testing his techniques. Whether his body will be able to adapt is still uncertain.

Of course, the best way to adapt to one's cultivation level is to gain the respect of the Great Evolution Immortal to activate the Thousand Evolutions Array Diagram.

Ideally, a full two-week simulation should be conducted...

In addition to arranging the cave dwelling, the Five Elements Sect also sent Ye Feng a lot of cultivation techniques and classic texts.

As requested, one portion of each of the other various ores was also brought.

Almost two months have passed since the Thousand Illusion Sword fell into slumber on the sea, and it still hasn't awakened.

As Ye Feng's strength increased, he used swordsmanship less and less.

But it cannot be denied that if it weren't for Qianqian last time, he and Ling Fengxue might have perished in the fish's mouth.

With such merit, how could we not help her level up...?

Getting her to wake up quickly is quite simple.

Simply recharge your mana cap!

Once everything was ready, Ye Feng unleashed an array plate to seal the cave, then, carrying the numerous spiritual materials and items, flashed directly into the cultivation space...

———

In the world of cultivation, nothing too significant usually happens within a month or two, or even a year or two.

The Central Continent is vast; even at the speed of an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator, it wouldn't take even a month or two to travel from one sect to another...

Especially since the teleportation array was shut down, even major events like Immortal Venerable Ning Shuang possibly finding a Daoist partner were not widely known.

Tiannan

After most of the core disciples of Penglai Sect left, it had almost no impact on the sect as a whole.

The entire sect continued to operate in an orderly manner according to the established rules.

Even with Ye Feng and Yang Xueling absent, the unique teleportation function of the Penglai shop remained completely unchanged.

Recently, the shop has even seen a surge in level 3 and 4 ores.

In the past, after the sect set a price, the profit from the sale would be converted into sect contributions and divided equally among the disciples.

But now, apart from the portion handed over to the sect, all other profits are calculated as contributions... Selling one level-four ore is enough to buy a bunch of Foundation Establishment spiritual items!

Everything is developing in a thriving manner.

The crisis in the Central Continent seemed to have nothing to do with them.

Meanwhile, in the Central Continent, almost all level six or seven sects had members spreading the Black God Cult...

The closure of the teleportation array had no effect on them whatsoever.

The mysterious black mist can naturally transmit information to every believer...

The Central Western Regions, originally the mountain gate of the seventh-level sect, the Holy Sun Sect.

The once spiritually rich and cloud-shrouded sacred mountain has now become a dark and desolate place.

Countless mortals and low-level cultivators were gathered in a huge square, kneeling and praying, chanting incantations.

Before the kneeling crowd was a black cloud of mist, at least a kilometer in diameter.

As the crowd knelt in worship, a wisp of black mist occasionally drifted out and flew towards the crowd in the square.

As the black energy entered his body, this ordinary person instantly became incredibly excited, as if injected with adrenaline.

His aura visibly grew stronger... In a short moment, he transformed from an ordinary mortal into a powerhouse comparable to a Foundation Establishment cultivator!

The crowd around, witnessing this scene, became even more excited.

A mortal without spiritual roots... can actually become so powerful!

"Black God! Great Black God!"

"Great Black God, please grant me power..."

...

As the crowd knelt in worship, the black mist cloud in front of them grew slightly larger.

Meanwhile, some people in the crowd, after being invaded by the black energy, not only did not become stronger, but their bodies withered and shrank, turning into dried corpses in the blink of an eye...

"It must be because he wasn't sincere! He actually doubted the Black God; he deserves to die!"

"He should be torn to pieces and used to nourish trees!"

...

Around the plaza, high-ranking cultivators flew and patrolled the sky.

Sometimes he would grab the dead and throw them far away.

From a distance, the enormous crater, whose depth was unknown, was almost completely filled...
