The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal - Chapter 214

Chapter 214: Chapter 214: The Spirit Vein Core Reassembles, the Envoy from the County King City
 

Looking at the thousands of people kneeling in gratitude, a surge of pride blossomed in Ye Feng’s chest.

The Misty Sect disciples stood behind Ye Feng, gazing at him with admiration, as if they were looking at a towering mountain, feeling Ye Feng had suddenly grown taller.

“The Sect Leader is truly amazing, if I want to catch up to him, I need to work even harder,” Ji Ziling clenched her fists as she watched Ye Feng’s back.

“He’s really unfathomable,” Mo Ying gripped her Breeze-riding Sword tightly, realizing Ye Feng’s methods were endless. Could it be that he had the support of a top-tier power behind him?

Was he serving as the Sect Leader of the Misty Sect just for experience?

Mo Ying began to imagine.

“Everyone, please rise!” Ye Feng, holding the Wind Spirit Pearl with the power of Heroic Spirits, helped up the thousands of people in the valley.

[Sect Prestige Value +1107]

[Power of Faith +235]

The System’s prompt came suddenly.

Although unexpected, Ye Feng was very pleased.

This time, inscribing the Miniature Cave-Heaven Array, the materials were provided by the Yunhua Sect, and he merely exerted effort and gained the full acknowledgment of the entire Yunhua Sect, as well as an unexpected amount of the Power of Faith. He was very satisfied in his heart.

“Now that the Spirit Vein has been stabilized, everyone should eat and drink as they please.” Ye Feng rubbed his belly and glanced at the setting sun, feeling a bit hungry.

Yunhua Zhenren slapped his forehead and said, “Almost forgot, the dishes at the main peak’s grand hall have all gone cold, they need to be reheated.”

After speaking, he dispersed the disciples and escorted Ye Feng and his group to the summit of Yunhua Peak, to the Sect Master’s Grand Hall.

In a short while, the dishes were reheated.

At the banquet.

Yunhua Zhenren and the four Great Elders made toasts to Ye Feng, expressing their gratitude incessantly.

Facing the effusive Yunhua Zhenren, Ye Feng felt a bit embarrassed because his purpose in lending a hand was not as simple.

Of course, being able to create such a situation was a win-win.

Ye Feng ate this meal with great joy.

After three rounds of drinks, Yunhua Zhenren voiced his doubts, “Sect Master Ye, how long do you think the Miniature Cave-Heaven Array you set up can hold?”

Ye Feng thought for a while and said, “To be honest, this is my first time inscribing this Formation, and luck played a big part in the success.”

“You succeeded on your first attempt? Sect Master Ye is truly a natural-born Array Master! Such steady hands command our admiration,” Yunhua Zhenren immediately clasped his hands in salute.

The other Elders also showed their respect.

Ye Feng grinned awkwardly.

The reason his hands were so steady was purely due to the Heroic Spirit Power, which is a very mechanistic force. If you command it to move straight for ten inches, it will not deviate, fall short or exceed by a single inch, but will move according to the intention.

It was precisely because of this that with the Heroic Spirit Power guiding the knife, Ye Feng managed to succeed in inscribing the Miniature Cave-Heaven Array on his first attempt.

If it were any other Artifact Refiner, who had to inscribe by hand, there would have been some mistakes, and it would be difficult to match the standard of Heroic Spirit Power.

Ye Feng was humble in the face of everyone’s praise.

“Actually, it’s all due to luck. The success surely means that the Yunhua Sect is favored by heaven and earth, destined to become a Star-Level Sect,” said Ye Feng with a smile.

Everyone was pleased with this explanation.

Yunhua Zhenren was filled with emotion and looking at Ye Feng said, “Thanks to Sect Master Ye’s assistance, from now on, the Misty Sect will be our eternal ally in the Yunhua Sect. Should your sect have any needs, we will do our utmost to fulfill them.”

Ye Feng clasped his hands and said, “You’re too kind, Yunhua Zhenren… Speaking of which, now that the Spirit Vein has been stabilized, your sect should be able to ascend to higher rank, right?”

At these words, Yunhua Zhenren and the four Elders looked at each other.

There was a moment of silence at the scene.

After pondering for a while, Yunhua Zhenren said, “Actually, I would very much like to send out invitations for the Star-Level Sect certification to the envoys of County King City tonight, but we still need to ensure the Spirit Vein is stable enough and that it lasts long enough.”

“Is there a time requirement?” Ye Feng asked curiously.

“Of course, there is, the requirement from County King City is to have at least one Miniature Spirit Vein stable for more than a hundred years before it can pass the certification. Sect Master Ye, can you guarantee this Formation will operate smoothly for over a hundred years?”

Yunhua Zhenren expressed his concern.

Ye Feng put down his wine cup and said, “I need to see it on the spot.”

“Alright, I’ll accompany Sect Master Ye to the underground caverns in a moment,” Yunhua Zhenren nodded in agreement.

An hour later.

After everyone had their fill, they once again reached the underground caverns.

Ye Feng stood in front of a stalagmite strengthened by a Miniature Cave-Heaven Array, carefully inspecting it, and found that the arrangement of the formation was basically flawless. With the added blessing of ample nature’s spiritual energy, it should be stable for a century.

But Ye Feng did not immediately respond.

He walked on the surface of the stalagmite, and with a “swoosh” sound, was sucked into a small hole, arriving in an inner space that was a hundred meters in diameter and eight hundred meters tall.

Swoosh swoosh!

Yunhua Zhenren followed by other cultivators came in one after another.

Standing behind Ye Feng and looking up, they could see a plethora of nature’s spiritual energy contained in this place. In the center, a fist-sized Spiritual Energy Vortex was forming, with a blue-white crystal gradually condensing at its core, starting from the size of a grain of rice and eventually growing to the size of a soybean, continuing to expand.

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.

“It’s the Spiritual Vein Core!”

“Gods! Inside the stalagmite, a new Core Nucleus is condensing.”

“This means, once the Core Nucleus is fully formed and remains stable, our Yunhua Sect’s Spirit Vein can be restored to its former peak.”

Yunhua Zhenren was the most shocked.

The Core Nucleus of a Spirit Vein is of utmost importance.

Initially, they were unsure if the Spirit Vein could operate for a long time, but now it was different.

Because the Core Nucleus was reuniting!

“Sect Master, our Spirit Vein has completely stabilized; it definitely meets the conditions for the sect advancement,” Fourth Elder Liu Yuzhi said excitedly.

Yunhua Zhenren was equally thrilled.

With a sweep of his wide sleeves, he said, “Immediately spend a large sum of money to purchase a defensive formation. We must protect the Spirit Vein; it is the foundation of our Yunhua Sect and cannot afford any mishap. Also, issue an invitation to the messenger from County King City tonight; we shall redo the Star-Level Sect certification tomorrow.”

“Yes,” Liu Yuzhi immediately took out a Messenger Paper Crane, blew three breaths of spiritual energy into it, and threw it out. The crane flapped its wings and flew towards the distant Commandery Prince City.

An hour later.

On a main peak called Yuzhi Peak.

Ye Feng and the disciples of the Misty Sect were accommodated in an ancient courtyard halfway up the mountain, found their own rooms, and prepared to settle in first.

In the courtyard.

Liu Yuzhi, Ye Feng, and Yunhua Zhenren sat on stone stools under an old pagoda tree, chatting leisurely over tea.

“Sect Master Ye wishes to witness the full certification process of a Star-Level Sect on-site, but it may take a couple of days, as the messengers from the Commandery King City can’t possibly arrive so soon,” said Yunhua Zhenren.

“No matter, we can treat it as a time to relax here, waiting a few more days is worth it,” Ye Feng said calmly.

“Since Sect Master Ye doesn’t mind, that puts my mind at ease,” Yunhua Zhenren bowed to Ye Feng and then returned to the Sect Master’s Grand Hall at Yunhua Peak to rest.

“Sect Master Ye, it’s late, I will take my leave!” Liu Yuzhi, with nimble movements and a graceful smile toward Ye Feng, flew back to her abode at the top of Yuzhi Peak.

The next day.

Ye Feng roamed the area of the Yunhua Mountain Range for most of the day. Using a Middle Grade Duplication Crystal, he duplicated another Meridian Recurrence Pill, bringing the total to eight.

At that moment, he sensed something and took out his communication order.

“Sect Master Uncle, Yunhua Zhenren has announced that the messenger from Commandery Prince City has arrived at the Sect Master’s Grand Hall on Yunhua Peak. He requests your presence to witness the full assessment process of the Star-Level Sect,” Shi Lei’s voice came from the communication order.

“Hmm, understood.”

Ye Feng replied with a single word and immediately made his way back.

In the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly.

As Ye Feng entered the Sect Master’s Grand Hall on Yunhua Peak, he saw a middle-aged woman in a purple-red long dress. She was extremely beautiful, with the aura of the fifth layer of Element Gathering Realm flowing around her and a flickering purple light in her eyes that appeared quite bewitching.

At that moment, the woman was sitting down, drinking tea.

Behind her stood two young people, a man and a woman, both appearing to be about thirty years old, yet already possessed the cultivation level of the first layer of the Element Gathering Realm.

“Sect Master Ye, this is Elder ‘Hongmeng’ from Commandery Prince City, in charge of the One-Star Sect certification. The other two, ‘Qin Ping’ and ‘Qin Wan’, are Stewards, here to assist Elder Hongmeng with the certification,” said Yunhua Zhenren, rising to introduce them upon seeing Ye Feng.

After that, he pointed to Ye Feng and introduced him to Elder Hongmeng, saying, “Elder Hongmeng, this is Ye Feng, the Sect Master of the Misty Sect.”

“Oh, so you are the Ye Feng who can inscribe the Miniature Cave-Heaven Array?” Elder Hongmeng scrutinized Ye Feng, the approval in her eyes growing stronger, “Indeed, as expected of the young prodigy who could vanquish Soulhun Zhenren with a single sword strike, you are just as rumored: not only young but also profoundly unfathomable.”

Ye Feng looked at Elder Hongmeng as well.

Noticing her bewitching eyes, Ye Feng subconsciously used the Spirit Beast Pavilion’s scouting feature. His vision quickly displayed several lines of text, which greatly surprised him.
