The Nascent Soul cultivator who had been knocked down got up without saying a word, gave a cold snort, and left.
Seeing this, the crowd, seemingly worried about being implicated, quickly dispersed, leaving behind a trail of sarcastic remarks.
"No matter how talented you are, if you can't reach the Divine Realm, it's all for nothing!"
"That's right, Senior Brother Liu is the Ancestor's own grandson. It's a sure thing that he'll become a Nascent Soul cultivator in the future. He's just a guy from Tiannan. Even if he's stronger, he's still an outsider!"
"Hehe, I heard that he has a senior brother in Tiannan? He established his own sect and is quite prestigious in the Tianfu Secret Realm!"
"Why didn't he just seek refuge with his senior brother? What's he doing here?"
......
After everyone left, a woman at the Nascent Soul stage flew over.
"Junior Brother Yang... don't listen to their nonsense. They're just jealous. Once you reach the Nascent Soul stage, they won't have anything to say anymore!"
Upon seeing the woman before him, Yang Fan's eyes softened, and he smiled as he spoke.
"Senior Sister Lin, I'm alright! Thank you!"
...
This scene, filled with both conflict and the presence of a beautiful woman, left Ye Feng speechless with emotion.
Yang Fan, that guy, really does get protagonist treatment wherever he goes!
In just ten years, he went from the peak of Foundation Establishment to the peak of Golden Core.
For ordinary people, advancing to the Golden Core realm by even one minor level every ten years is considered a cause for celebration.
He seems to be doing well; it looks like he'll be advancing to the Nascent Soul stage in just one or two months.
Even Li Qinghe and Xiao Xuan, who changed their cultivation methods, are still far from perfect...
"He was supposed to make a name for himself in this Tianfu Secret Realm... but he missed the opportunity because he wasn't at the Nascent Soul stage!"
"hehe..."
Ye Feng finally understood. According to the Great Evolution Immortal Venerable's meaning, Yang Fan was the chosen one of the world!
Ordering it specifically for yourself... the meaning is self-evident!
"Judging from his appearance, this young man is only about fifty years old and is already a Golden Core cultivator... Senior, you mean he should have advanced to an even higher realm. Could this person be the reincarnation of some great being?"
The Great Evolution Immortal Venerable gave Ye Feng a half-smile.
"A powerful being reincarnated... Do you know that in the Lingyu cultivation world, no one has been able to reincarnate for tens of thousands of years!"
"What?!"
This time, Ye Feng was genuinely surprised. Reaching the Nascent Soul stage allowed one to preserve their true spirit, and even in death, there was a sliver of hope for reincarnation and rebirth.
This is something that is generally acknowledged throughout the cultivation world.
Almost everyone around Ye Feng now believes that he is a reincarnation, and that he was not an ordinary cultivator in his previous life!
Now, the Great Evolution Immortal Venerable is saying that no one in the cultivation world has been able to reincarnate for tens of thousands of years?
Sometimes, ignorance is bliss...
The Great Evolution Immortal Venerable gazed into the distance with a profound look, as if to say... I know too much, and I am not happy!
"Do you know why these strange beasts, despite having undergone the ascension tribulation outside the secret realm, have not ascended?"
"Isn't it because they are alien beasts? Our Lingyu cultivation world is a cultivation world dominated by humans..."
"That's just how they tell outsiders! In fact, anyone born and raised in this world, whether human or beast, can transcend tribulations and ascend to immortality. As for exotic beasts... they come from the immortal realm and can ascend no matter where they are!"
Ye Feng's pupils contracted, sensing that the Great Evolution Immortal Venerable was about to say something extraordinary.
As the Great Evolution Immortal Venerable was naturally skilled in deduction, Ye Feng felt that when the Great Evolution Immortal Venerable took the initiative to come out with him, he was probably preparing to say these things to him.
However, they haven't gotten to the point yet; aside from wanting to prove they are an "outlier," they haven't made any other indications.
I feel like we're about to get to the point!
As the Great Evolution Immortal Venerable took a step forward, the surrounding scenery abruptly changed.
The two stood directly on either side of a table in a teahouse. The waiter, completely unaware of their arrival, brought over a pot of tea and poured it over them.
The Great Evolution Immortal Venerable sat down, took a sip of tea, and gestured for Ye Feng to sit down as well.
Ye Feng also took a sip. This tea was actually grade four. After taking a sip, he immediately felt his mouth water and his soul refreshed.
When one's cultivation reaches the Void Returning stage, the body can become ethereal at any time, rendering ordinary poisons useless.
Of course... Ye Feng is just an avatar here, which can disappear at any time, so he is not afraid of being poisoned.
"This tea tree may look like it's covered in leaves, but actually, only a few leaves are truly the best-tasting..."
"But when tea trees grow to a certain size, they will always branch out. These branches may seem to be of high quality, but in reality, it is completely impossible to predict what will happen to them in the future."
"On one side is the visible main trunk... on the other side are branches that look to be of good quality, but a tree can only supply so much nutrition. If it were you, would you choose to cut off the main trunk or the branches?"
The Great Evolution Immortal Venerable glanced at the teacup, speaking casually, yet his words carried a chilling solemnity.
Even though his main body was millions of miles away, Ye Feng still felt his hair stand on end.
"What does the Immortal Venerable mean? Am I a branch? Or a branch that stole nutrients from the main trunk?"
"Tell me, should I cut off the main trunk or the branches?"
The Great Evolution Immortal Venerable held his teacup, slowly rotating it, his eyes fixed on Ye Feng, as if a thunderous attack was about to strike at any moment!
"Senior hasn't explained why these strange beasts can't ascend to immortality."
"Because the entire cultivation world is currently facing a huge crisis, and this main body is for dealing with this catastrophe!"
"Tell me, should I cut off this branch that's stealing nutrients from the main trunk?"
Excise, excise!
Ye Feng, who was previously cautious, is now filled with resentment.
I originally thought that since I was half a world away from Yang Fan, we would never have any further contact.
Unexpectedly, there was a big boss waiting for him here.
Ye Feng stood up abruptly, coldly staring at the Great Evolution Immortal Venerable.
"Immortal Venerable, you keep talking about severing and branching, are you perhaps the Heavenly Dao? Do you think you can control this world?"
"Why is it that the future you're talking about, where the main trunk is the only correct path, and I'm just a branch? Can't I be part of the main trunk?"
"Have you not heard that existence is justified? How do you know that my appearance is not an arrangement of fate?"
Ye Feng was still furious after speaking, his eyes fixed on the Great Evolution Immortal Venerable.
The Great Evolution Immortal Venerable seemed completely unconcerned by his anger, finishing his cup of tea before leisurely speaking.
"What you said makes sense, which is why I'm giving you this opportunity!"
As he spoke, the Great Evolution Immortal Venerable stood up and looked at Ye Feng, saying...
"If I hadn't seen your extraordinary speed of advancement, I wouldn't have given you this opportunity. But now, I want to see if this branch of yours can produce an even better flower!"
"If you can advance to the Immortal Venerable realm within a hundred years, then I will believe that you are another arrangement made by fate!"
