Translator: 549690339

In Ye Feng’s view, could the thing that excited Huo Yunjie so much be that his blind date was successful?

If a wedding banquet was held on Misty Peak, with congratulations from all the major sects, it seems they could make a fortune just from the gift money!

“We’re rich, we’re rich!”

Ye Feng’s smile gradually became more comical.

Seeing Ye Feng’s expression, Huo Yunjie paused for a moment and said, “Sect Master Uncle, it’s not much, and it doesn’t exactly mean we’re rich. Let’s open it in the Sect Leader’s Great Hall!”

“Open it?”

Ye Feng blinked, silently realizing he might have misunderstood. The surprise Huo Yunjie referred to was likely unrelated to any matchmaking, his smile slowly turning stiff.

A moment later.

Sect Leader’s Great Hall.

Three items were placed on the table.

A small bag of Spirit Stones, an ancient text, and a talisman.

“Sect Master Uncle, these are twenty Spirit Stones, the remnant volume of a Second-Grade Spell “Soul Control Technique”, and a Lower-Grade Stabilizing Talisman. These three items are our surprise gift to you,” Huo Yunjie said with a smile, pointing at the items on the table.

Long Tianxing followed with teasing, “Sect Leader, are you surprised?”

Ye Feng sat in the main seat, at a loss for words.

He was supposed to go on a blind date, but where’s the match?

Surprised, of course he was surprised!

With this thought, Ye Feng covered his face with his hand and asked, “Indeed, it’s a surprise. By the way, how did Yunjie’s blind date go?”

“Sect Master Uncle, my blind date, of course, went cold again!” Huo Yunjie said, as if it were obvious.

Ye Feng was on the verge of tears, “Nine blind dates, all of them went cold, are you immune to matchmaking or what?”

Huo Yunjie scratched his head, “Immune? Is that the physique that blocks all chances? I’ve never heard of it before.”

“Neither have I.” Even Mo Ying, who was well-read, frowned slightly, finding the term too unfamiliar.

Finding that his disciples were seriously discussing this so-called immunity, Ye Feng felt even more helpless, but he was too lazy to explain and changed the subject, “How did you come by these three things?”

“I’m familiar with the process, let me tell everyone in detail.” Long Tianxing jumped in eagerly.

He danced around, narrating everything from their departure to their return, and by the end of his tale, he was parched and quickly drank a bowl of water, still eager to continue.

Ye Feng hurriedly told Long Tianxing to sit down and stop showing off.

By this time, everyone finally learned of the trio’s experiences today.

Picking up the “Soul Control Technique” from the table, Ye Feng said, “So that’s what happened, the Soul Seizing Sect… that must be a tricky power to deal with.”

After the trip through the Nanlu Mountain Range, he could be considered as formally entering the ranks of the Element Gathering Realm, but he still had only enough power to defend himself.

After all, there were quite a few in the Element Gathering Realm around them.

The appearance of this power called the Soul Seizing Sect, which specializes in targeting the talents of various sects for assassination, gave Ye Feng an ominous feeling, and he asked, “Mo Ying, do you know of the Soul Seizing Sect?”

Mo Ying nodded and said, “The Soul Seizing Sect belongs to the evil sects. It is said that in the past, several Star-Level Sects organized a siege against them. In the end, Souhun Zhenren still managed to escape. He vanished for a while, and I didn’t expect them to resurface.”

This time not only Ye Feng, but the others also showed grave expressions.

“Recently, there have been troubles with the Demon Race, and now the Soul Seizing Sect appears; things are getting more dangerous. But fortunately, we have the Sect Protection Array, and we’re close to Whitefloat City, so we are safe for now,” Ye Feng said, glancing at the Mini Earth Element Slaughter Array and heaving a slight sigh of relief.

“Sect Leader, even though this “Soul Control Technique” is only a remnant volume, it is very powerful, and it somewhat resembles Fox Da Hong’s talent. Do you think you can complete it?” Shi Lei asked at this point.

“Of course,” Ye Feng nodded, and everyone showed admiration.

Ye Feng felt somewhat fortunate.

Thank goodness the Dog System had the Prestige Point Exchange Feature, which allowed the use of Prestige Points to gain an understanding of spells. Otherwise, he could only bluff the disciples into practicing up to beginner level before unlocking it.

“System, open the Prestige Points data,” Ye Feng murmured to himself.

The next moment, the following text appeared in his vision.

[Sect Prestige Value: 2001]

[Remaining Exchangeable Amount: 1851]

[Exchange Instructions: Spend Sect Prestige Value to instantly master a spell to the Perfection stage; First-Grade Spell requires 50 points, Second-Grade Spell requires 100 points…]

Seeing that the Prestige Points had reached 2000, several hundred more than before, Ye Feng was taken aback.

“What’s going on?” Ye Feng was a bit confused.

Upon reflection, he understood: It must be because of his saving those people from various sects at Nanlu Mountain Range yesterday. They spread the word, and therefore, his Prestige Points surged by several hundred in one day.

It seems that doing good deeds or sensational things is indeed a good choice!

“System, I want to exchange 100 Prestige Points to comprehend the partial volume of “Soul Control Technique”,” Ye Feng thought to himself.

“Ding, 100 Prestige Points spent, 1751 points remaining for exchange,” the System sent out a notification sound.

Soon, Ye Feng felt as if he was being filled with divine insight. When he looked at the partial volume of the “Soul Control Technique” again, his eyes were bright, as if he were a true Great Master of Magic.

“Actually, this “Soul Control Technique” is quite straightforward. As the Sect Leader, I’ll teach you how to cultivate it now.”

“First of all, this spell is supportive. Once mastered, you can extend a wisp of will to control any soul or spirit weaker than your own, making them carry out your commands. It’s exceptionally effective for scouting enemies, assassinations, and infiltration.”

“The downside is that the control distance is limited and is related to one’s cultivation level and soul strength. Under normal circumstances, those at the ninth layer of Qi Refinement can reach up to three hundred zhang.”

Ye Feng took out a charcoal pencil and began to draw meridian diagrams on a white stone slate that had been specifically delivered, then he started teaching.

The disciples, looking at the diagrams and notes on the slate, tried to cultivate the spell, and soon found they were able to condense a wisp of will that could explore independently of the body.

The most cultivated among them, Mo Ying, found that her will could spread over nearly half of Misty Peak. However, the scope of her vision was not large, just about ten zhang in radius. She could attach her will to passing insects, birds, snakes, and rodents, controlling their actions and obtaining their field of vision.

“What a miraculous spell.”

After opening her eyes, Mo Ying first marveled at the spell’s wonder; then, as she looked toward Ye Feng again, it was as if she were seeing a grandmaster.

“My Sect Leader is truly an anomaly. In the time it takes for half a cup of tea to steep, he deduced the complete version of a Second-Grade Spell. Perhaps he is the reincarnation of a powerful being. I just wonder if he will discover the secret within me…”

Even though she was somewhat apprehensive, Mo Ying still felt that joining the Misty Sect was the right decision.

…

Over a hundred li away from Beacon Fire City.

Here lay a stretch of mountains extending across several tens of li.

In the area spanning over ten li around the main peak, “Yunhua Peak,” there was a cultivation sect.

Yunhua Sect!

At this moment, in the Sect Master’s Grand Hall.

“Sect Master, that’s what happened,” Lin Yuyan stood within the grand hall, finally finishing her report of the events that had taken place in Beacon Fire City.

At the main seat.

Dressed in beautiful garments, the Sect Master of Yunhua Sect, “Yunhua Zhenren,” frowned slightly. He exchanged glances with several Element Gathering Realm Elders sitting around, all seeing the worry in each other’s eyes.

“The reappearance of the Soul Seizing Sect is not a good omen,” the Great Elder said gravely.

“Indeed! And relying solely on our Yunhua Sect, we are definitely no match for Souhun Zhenren. We must take precautions early,” the Second Elder also spoke.

Yunhua Zhenren nodded and said,

“Souhun Zhenren’s cultivation level had already reached the Fourth Layer of Element Gathering, not to be underestimated. Now that he has emerged after a period of silence, no one knows to what realm he has achieved. We must inform the other sects to raise their vigilance.”

Yunhua Zhenren looked at Jiang Dachao kneeling beside Lin Yuyan and changed the topic,

“Yu Yan has merit for this mission, and should be rewarded… Also, the person who caught Jiang Dachao, the direct disciple of Souhun Zhenren, is he really from the Misty Sect of Whitefloat City?”

Upon hearing this, everyone present turned their gaze towards Lin Yuyan.
