NOVEL NEXT Chapter 659 Old Long Arrives
At this moment, Ye Feng's aura had reached a pinnacle state, and Elder Bai was already kneeling before him, his eyes filled with utmost devotion.
He knew all too well what it meant for Ye Feng to successfully open his 2,900th acupoint.
Ye Feng now possessed the incomparable combat power of the Yin-Yang Realm, just as Old Man with Big Tobacco Pipe had said, exhibiting the imposing aura of a Second Seal Great Power of the Yin-Yang Realm.
But this was merely an aura; how strong Ye Feng truly was, remained unknown to all.
Old Man with Big Tobacco Pipe, watching Ye Feng, nodded with a smile, "Not bad, Kid Ye. In just over a month since entering the Outer Battlefield, you've already grown to this extent."
"Though you've had the advantage of the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, the fact that you've achieved this strength in such a short time also highlights your talent," he praised generously, evidently very satisfied with Ye Feng's current level of strength.
Ye Feng contained his aura and approached Old Man with Big Tobacco Pipe, humbly saying, "Old Long, you knew I was here all along, didn't you? I remember, while in seclusion in the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, I always felt like someone was watching me. That was you, right?"
Ye Feng said with a half-smile, his realm still displayed as Peak Martial King, but his strength and aura had truly reached the level of a Great Power of the Yin-Yang Realm!
The capture of aura, along with his profound new insights into heaven and earth, were markedly different.
He recalled the feeling of being watched during his cultivation in the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, and now he was acutely aware that whenever Old Long watched him, he could detect a feeling very similar to that previous sense of being watched!
That's why Ye Feng specifically brought up this matter now.
Old Long hadn't expected Ye Feng to suddenly ask this and could only manage a wry smile, yet he didn't deny it, simply nodding in acknowledgment.
"It wasn't just me involved in this matter; that red-nosed old fellow was a part of it too," Old Long said with a chuckle.
Hearing this, an image of the red-nosed elder immediately came to Ye Feng's mind, and he cursed with a laugh, "Speaking of which, it's been quite a while since I had a drink with that old man. Aren't you folks at the Great Wall of Heaven? Why have you come looking for me specifically?"
Ye Feng had only just emerged from seclusion and was completely unaware that the entire Outer Battlefield had already entered a state of war preparedness, and the situation at the Great Wall of Heaven was extremely dire.
At that moment, Old Long suddenly became serious and said in a deep voice, "I came to find you precisely because of the affairs at the Great Wall of Heaven."
Seeing Old Long's severe expression, Ye Feng felt a shiver in his heart. It was the first time he'd ever seen Old Long show such a demeanor. Old Long had always seemed so carefree, but now...
Old Long didn't beat around the bush any longer and explained the current situation at the Great Wall of Heaven to Ye Feng, then added, "The situation is as such. Every power in the Human Realm is indispensable for the upcoming conflict. My sent-out people couldn't find you, so I came here directly."
"Kid Ye, you must now return to Earth and integrate the martial forces of Xuanyuan Nation's Mortal World and all other military powers, bringing them to the Great Wall of Heaven!" Old Long said with a grave face. He felt helpless; the Tianyong Pavilion in Xuanyuan Nation wouldn't dare take significant actions without Ye Feng's command. But this wasn't so strange, as Tianyong Pavilion's actions were due to not being able to contact Ye Feng. Concerned for his safety, they were waiting for his word.
Tianyong Pavilion had already announced their intent to mobilize the army. Even if there were no news from Ye Feng, they would lead their forces to the Great Wall of Heaven. For now, they still hoped to confirm Ye Feng's safety, which was why they hadn't acted yet.
Ye Feng stood in shock, listening to Old Long's words, shock evident in his eyes. The joy of having broken through 2,900 acupoints was completely washed away.
He was not unprepared for an impending chaos, but this chaos had come far too suddenly.
Before he entered the Outer Battlefield, Old Man Huang Niu had told him in the Northwest Little Mountain Village that the Great Wall of Heaven could hold for three years!
After arriving at the Outer Battlefield, Elder Bai informed him the situation with the Great Wall of Heaven had deteriorated, and that it could no longer hold for three years but only had two years left before complete collapse.
At that time, Ye Feng had made plans to cultivate a clandestine force in preparation for the looming war.
But now, having been in the Outer Battlefield for just over a month, and having just emerged from a few days of secluded cultivation in the Source Secret Realm, the entire heavens seemed to have changed.
Just a few days out of seclusion, someone was telling him that chaos was imminent. The two years he had accounted for had shrunk to less than a month, and the alien armies had even entered the Human Realm!
Even Ye Feng's state of mind was shocked by the sudden change.
Old Long sighed slightly as he observed Ye Feng's expression, which was not new to him these last few days. Not just Ye Feng, but the Yin-Yang Realm Great Powers from all the major forces were extremely shocked when they heard the news—every one of them initially could hardly believe it.
Just as Old Long was about to speak again, Ye Feng's eyes suddenly became incredibly sharp, his aura completely bursting forth. At that moment, the ground around him trembled, even cracking.
Old Long and Elder Bai's complexions changed; the surge of aura from Ye Feng was beyond their expectations.
At this point, Ye Feng closed his eyes, and a beam of light emerged from the top of his head—this was the power of his consciousness!
Ye Feng was now rapidly controlling his consciousness power to pierce through the void. In the blink of an eye, the force of his consciousness arrived atop the Great Wall of Heaven, forming a humanoid shadow.
It was Ye Feng's consciousness body formed by his consciousness power!
Gazing at the scene at the Great Wall of Heaven with shock in his eyes, Ye Feng did not allow his consciousness body to linger; it transformed back into a beam of light, piercing the void in an instant, returning to the valley in front of the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm.
The previously closed-eyed Ye Feng abruptly opened his eyes, his gaze erupting with a cold light as the ground in front of him was blasted into a deep pit in an instant!
Old Long's expression was serious; the strength that Ye Feng was now demonstrating had given him far more surprises than he expected.
"Old Long, go back to preside over the Great Wall of Heaven. I have seen what's happening there. Give me some time; I need to cultivate a group of strong warriors!" Ye Feng said gravely, having clearly seen the situation on the Great Wall of Heaven—the gap in the number of strong warriors on either side was too great!
The original plan was to send strong warriors from the Xuanyuan Nation in batches to the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm for cultivation. With the help of the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, it was certainly possible to create a lot of strong fighters in two years. Reaching the Golden Core Realm was undoubtedly achievable, and even attaining the level of a Yin-Yang Realm Great Power was not impossible.
But time was truly short, and suddenly there was less than one month left. The real battle might commence at any moment. There was no longer time to worry about this. At the very least, the number of fighters at the Golden Core Realm must be replenished!
With the dense Power of Spirit Essence in the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, it was entirely possible for someone in the Foundation Establishment Realm to break through to the Golden Core Realm in just one month.
Hearing Ye Feng's words, Old Long understood immediately. He knew of the existence of the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm and what it was like inside.
Actually, Northwest Little Mountain Village was also similar to the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, except that the heaven-and-earth laws within the village were somewhat more complete than those in the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, virtually indistinguishable from the real world. But the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm was different, created by the Heavenly Origin Divine Lord, unable to withstand the presence of Yin-Yang Realm Great Powers.
That's why, when he heard that Ye Feng was in the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, he didn't enter directly.
Great Powers of the Yin-Yang Realm from major forces can't enter, but he was different. As the person in charge of the Northwest Little Mountain Village, he naturally had some special methods; entering the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm was not difficult for him.
After pondering for a moment, Old Long said, "You must know, if you truly use the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm to cultivate strong warriors at this time, there's a great possibility that the secret realm will be exposed."
"Although at such a crucial moment, people might not ask too many questions, but after the great battle, you'll probably have to face questions and pressure from all sides," Old Long said with a serious look. This was no trivial matter—what was the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm?
It was a secret realm that all major forces over the past hundreds of years had valued immensely. The dense Power of Spirit Essence within the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm was coveted by every force, especially with the presence of the Spirit Essence Pool.
Even though it was opened every fifty years, the major powers treated it with utmost importance, let alone such an unrestricted Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, which was an immense treasure for any force.
For years, major forces have tried various ways to claim the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm as their own to no avail. Now that they knew Ye Feng had control over the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, it was inevitable that they would harbor intentions of seizing it.
Elder Bai remained silent at the side; what Old Long said was the truth.
However, Ye Feng had a stern face: "Even if they know, what of it? At such a critical time, this is not the moment to worry about such things. In the face of great chaos, what does exposing a secret realm matter?"
As Ye Feng spoke, a cold smirk appeared on his face: "When that time comes, even if these people truly have designs on the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, let them come."
"What belongs to Ye Feng is not something that can just be taken by anyone who wishes to take it."
At that moment, Ye Feng was filled with a murderous aura, and his eyes flickered with a glint of red.
