Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 1629
Chapter 1629 Vermillion Bird Region
This time, the two of them did not linger, nor did they compete with each other. Ye Feng flew in front, while Zhuang Chengyang was behind him. With the help of pushing force, Ye Feng’s speed doubled.
Five days later, he finally saw a new world. It was the Vermillion Bird Region. The Laws of the Immortal Dimension here were slightly different from the Azure Dragon Region. They seemed to be even more tyrannical.
“Master, you won’t tell me that the Azure Dragon Region is ranked last among the four God Realms, right?”
Feeling the Laws of Vermillion Bird Region, Ye Feng turned his head and asked Zhuang Chengyang.
“You guessed correctly!”
Zhuang Chengyang rolled his eyes at Ye Feng. There was nothing he could do about it. The Azure Dragon Region was ranked first among the four Divine Regions. Logically speaking, it should be the strongest existence. However, this was not the case. The Azure Dragon Region had been in decline since a thousand years ago.
As a result, the heavens and earth began to change, becoming worse year by year, while the other three regions were flourishing and had already surpassed the Azure Dragon Region.
“That’s true.”
Ye Feng was speechless for a moment. Why did he ascend to the Azure Dragon Region? If his starting point was higher, his achievements would naturally be higher.
“You don’t need to lose heart. The starting point isn’t important. The important thing is to work hard the day after tomorrow. Who would have thought that a Mortal Realm disciple like you would actually reach such a high level?”
Zhuang Chengyang noticed the change in Ye Feng’s expression and spoke in a sincere tone.
There were very few martial artists who could survive from the Mortal Realm. Most of them were killed. The second was that their potential was exhausted, and it would be difficult for them to take another step forward in their lives.
“You’re right, I will step onto the peak of the Immortal Dimension.”
Ye Feng’s heroic spirit instantly arose. He stepped into the Vermillion Bird Region, and a dense aura pounced on his face. The immortal energy here was extremely dense. In addition to the vast land, the plane was even larger than the Azure Dragon Region estimated.
In addition to the Vermillion Bird Domain’s fire, the temperature here was also relatively high. It was suitable for martial artists with fire attributes to cultivate.
“Master, we’ve already arrived at Vermillion Bird Domain. You can tell me why we’re here, right?”
After enduring the journey, Zhuang Chengyang didn’t tell him what he was doing in Vermillion Bird Region.
“Participate in a grand gathering!”
Zhuang Chengyang didn’t conceal anything this time. He said the purpose of coming here.
“What grand gathering?”
Ye Feng was still at a loss. It would be too hasty to take him alone to participate in the grand gathering.
“A grand gathering of experts from the four great divine realms. This is the largest exchange of talismans in the Immortal Dimension. There will be tens of thousands of people attending together. Each of them is a top talisman genius.”
Zhuang Chengyang’s expression was solemn. It seemed that the Fu Dao Gathering this time was even more intense, so it would be embarrassing to bring more people here if they weren’t talented people.
“The geniuses of the Dragon Talisman Sect grabbed a lot of them. Why did Master choose me alone?”
Ye Feng was very curious. The Dragon Talisman Sect had a large number of Ninth Grade Divine Immortals. Why didn’t they bring some experts over? Instead, they brought him a First Grade Divine Immortal.
“Their talent is very high, but their growth is limited. I need disciples with limitless potential. I can use this opportunity to observe them carefully. Your mission this time is to participate. Whether you can obtain a ranking is not important. What is important is your understanding of the Dao of Talismans.”
Zhuang Chengyang also knew that it was helpless to ask Ye Feng to come over.
Those ninth grade immortal talismans were naturally more talented than Ye Feng, but their growth was still limited. Even if they brought them along, they would not be able to win the championship. They also missed such a good opportunity to train, so they chose Ye Feng.
Ye Feng was still moved when he heard that the Fu Dao Gathering was prepared for him. Master hoped to use this opportunity to improve his Fu Dao. As for the rest, they were secondary.
“Don’t worry, Master. I will definitely meditate properly and not embarrass you.”
Ye Feng said very respectfully. The last sentence of the old man had a playful smile on his face.
“Am I that old?”
Zhuang Chengyang had a dark expression on his face. He was only a thousand years old. In the Immortal Dimension, a Ninth Grade Immortal King who was over a thousand years old was very young. Normally, a Ninth Grade Immortal King would always be several thousand years old.
“Master is not old at all. Disciple knows his mistake!”
Ye Feng curled his lips and cursed in his heart. He had lived for more than a thousand years, yet he did not seem to be old. Could there be an old monster that had lived for ten thousand years?
“Let’s go. Today is the beginning of the month. There are still a few days before the Talisman Dao Exchange Gathering. I’ll show you around the Vermillion Bird Domain to increase your knowledge.”
Zhuang Chengyang’s goal was to nurture Ye Feng, so many times, he would allow Ye Feng to advance without restraining him.
“Master, I’m sure you’re not the only disciple. Tell me about the other senior brothers.”
Ye Feng was very curious. Since Zhuang Chengyang had accepted him as a closed disciple, there must be other senior apprentice-brothers and senior apprentice-sisters on top of him.
“You and I have taken in a total of five disciples. The eldest disciple died at the hands of the demons. The remaining three should still be in the Immortal and Demon Realms, fighting against the demons to temper themselves.”
When Zhuang Chengyang mentioned his disciples, a trace of vicissitudes appeared on his face.
If the eldest disciple was still alive, he would be over a hundred years old. Unfortunately, he died at the hands of the demons.
“Then aren’t the senior brothers coming back normally?”
Ye Feng asked curiously. It had been half a year since he had joined the Talisman Sect, but he hadn’t seen many senior brothers.
“You will have a chance to meet him in the future. However, you must be prepared. Your three senior brothers and sisters are about to break through to the Immortal King level.”
Speaking of his other three disciples, Zhuang Chengyang still revealed a proud expression. An Immortal King Realm cultivator who was not even a hundred years old was definitely a genius amongst geniuses in the Immortal Dimension.
“Master, there’s a town ahead. Let’s go down and rest!”
Seeing that there was a town in front of him with only a hundred households, Ye Feng prepared to rest for a long time. Although the Immortal Spirit Pearl in Immortal energy had recovered, his spirit was very exhausted.
After breaking through on the isolated island, Zhuang Chengyang had collected more than 10 million Immortal Spirit Pearls for Ye Feng. This was equivalent to collecting 10 million Immortal Crystals. This was a considerable amount of resources.
The grade of these Immortal Spirit Pearls was at least around mid-grade Immortal Crystals. They were worth 10 million at one time, but Ye Feng was still very excited.
“Let’s go! Let’s go down!”
Zhuang Chengyang was also tired. He seemed to be a little sad. Thinking of his eldest disciple, he felt a little disappointed. After all, that was his first disciple. He treated him like a child.
With a whoosh, the two of them landed above the town. However, they suddenly stopped their bodies and did not land. Because smoke filled the town, many houses collapsed, as if powerful demonic beasts had looted this place.
“Master, what happened?”
Ye Feng was confused and could not understand what was happening here.
“The aura of a Heaven Trampling Beast. Let’s go down and see if there are any survivors.”
Zhuang Chengyang could tell from the clues that a Heaven Trampling Beast had entered this place and looted humans.
“What is a Heaven Trampling Beast?”
This was the first time Ye Feng had heard of such a demonic beast. Only now did he realize that he could learn a lot with an Immortal King senior.
“This is a Spirit Channeling Divine Beast. It likes to collect things from humans. In addition, it has a huge foot and has the intention of stepping on the heavens. That’s why it’s called a Heaven Trampling Beast.”
Zhuang Chengyang explained. The two of them quickly landed on the ground. Ye Feng saw footprints the size of a car, revealing deep shock.
The collapsed houses were crushed by the giant palms. The entire town was in a state of utter ruin. In many places, smoke was insignificant. It was clear that the Heaven Trampling Beast had only just left.
“Let’s split up and see if anyone survives!”
Zhuang Chengyang swept his divine sense and found that this place was quiet, but he couldn’t see a single corpse. This was very strange.
“Alright!”
Ye Feng rushed to the east of the town. Zhuang Chengyang flashed and appeared at the west of the town. He began to search to see if any humans had survived.
After searching for a long time, the town wasn’t even found, it was empty. Ye Feng even suspected that the people here could evacuate completely in an instant. This was obviously unscientific.
“Master, come and take a look at this place.”
Ye Feng looked at an intact earthen yellow wall and always felt that this place was strange. He shouted at Zhuang Chengyang.
The latter quickly arrived and looked at the earthen yellow wall with a strange expression.
“This is a spirit formation. You retreat!”
Zhuang Chengyang could tell at a glance that this earthen yellow wall was actually a barrier. It could block the spiritual sense of humans and also block the senses of demonic beasts.
Ye Feng took a dozen steps back. This was the first time he had encountered such a barrier. It had a confusing effect and could also block his divine sense. It was incomparably miraculous.
Zhuang Chengyang stretched out his palm and formed mysterious hand seals, injecting them into the earthen yellow wall. Something strange happened, and a faint ripple appeared on the earthen yellow wall, like a watermark.
Then, an unbelievable scene appeared. The khaki-colored wall became dimmer and dimmer. It was almost transparent. Soon, a scene appeared inside. Thousands of people were crowded together. Men, women, and children were all holding forks and halberds, preparing to attack.
“Kill!”
The moment the restriction disappeared, the young man inside rushed towards Ye Feng and Zhuang Chengyang with a knife and fork in his hand. He actually treated them as bad people.
“Everyone, stop! We are not bad people! The Heaven Trampling Beast destroyed this place!”
Of course, Zhuang Chengyang would not attack these weak humans. With a wave of his hand, he sealed the surrounding space. The young men and women were all frozen in place, unable to move, only their eyeballs could move.
Ye Feng was very curious. He walked closer and touched this and that. He found that they were unable to move. Everything else was normal.
“Master, what kind of Dao Art is this? Teach me!”
This kind of spatial confinement ability was too good. If anyone refused to accept it, they would directly confine him for a day and night to see if he was honest or not.
Zhuang Chengyang was really speechless towards this disciple. A black thread was a Great Confinement Technique, a technique unique to Immortal Kings. If Divine Realm knew how to use it, wouldn’t Immortal Kings become idiots?
‘”Cough cough, everyone calm down. We just passed by and saw the destruction here. We just wanted to see what happened. I really don’t want to disturb you. If you don’t resist, I’ll immediately let you go.”
Zhuang Chengyang said earnestly. A small portion believed it, but there were still some who did not believe it, revealing hatred.
The scene was very strange. Zhuang Chengyang did not dare to let them go. He was not afraid, but he was just unwilling to hurt the innocent.
“My master and I are really passing by. If you give up resisting, we will naturally be too lazy to interfere. If you agree, everyone roll your eyes.”
Ye Feng’s words were sharp, unlike Zhuang Chengyang’s.
