The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal-Chapter 1270: Dream Entering the Undying Star
Chapter 1270: Chapter 1270: Dream Entering the Undying Star
In the starry sky.
Sword Saint Yuexi walked ahead, her white dress fluttering slightly. Her demeanor was ethereal and pure, exuding a refreshing fragrance that made her seem like a celestial fairy descending to the mortal realm.
Ye Feng followed behind, his expression unwavering.
Pop!
The two vanished into the void.
Dizhou, Nantian Sword Sect.
Ye Feng and Sword Saint Yuexi appeared out of thin air above the sect’s gate, instantly attracting the attention of nearby cultivators.
"Greetings to the Great Elder!"
"Greetings to Sect Master Ye."
Everyone immediately stood up and bowed, their faces filled with respect, admiration, and delight.
"Where is the Sect Master?" Sword Saint Yuexi asked, looking at a Saint Realm Elder clad in a moon-colored robe.
"Reporting to the Great Elder, the Sect Master has been in closed-door cultivation in the rear mountain. He has never left." The Saint Realm Elder quickly replied, his face full of reverence.
"Mm, alright."
Sword Saint Yuexi nodded, then led Ye Feng toward the rear mountain, passing through a vast expanse of the Red Plum Forest and artificial rock pools, and finally arrived at a tranquil valley.
The place was enclosed by a wooden fence, leading to a pathway made of stones, with a gate blocking the center of the trail.
"Sect Master, Yuexi requests an audience."
"Come in!"
In the valley, the voice of the Nantian Sword Emperor echoed.
The next moment.
The gate automatically slid open to either side, allowing Ye Feng and Sword Saint Yuexi to enter.
"The spiritual energy here is so dense, and there’s a unique Sword Intent lingering around. If someone tried to force their way through, they’d surely be struck by the Sword Qi. No one below the Hundred Tribulations Realm could survive such an intrusion."
Ye Feng commented as he walked.
"Sect Master Ye indeed has sharp insight. This area is the rear mountain’s forbidden zone of our Nantian Sword Sect. On usual days, only a few individuals have permission to enter."
Sword Saint Yuexi explained with a smile.
The two walked along the stone path until they reached the center of the valley at a small wooden house. Inside sat an elderly figure.
"Huh!"
Ye Feng froze upon seeing him.
The old man carried a longsword on his back, and the Sword Aura emanating from him bore striking similarities to the Supreme Sword Qi infused in Chu Tianhe’s Cicada Wing Flying Sword.
Could it... really be him?!
Ye Feng’s breath hitched as he entertained the thought.
"Sect Master Ye, we finally meet." Nantian Sword Emperor regarded Ye Feng, "To be precise, this isn’t our first meeting. Sit down!"
Nantian Sword Emperor motioned with his hand.
Two wooden stools floated over and gently landed beside Ye Feng and Sword Saint Yuexi.
Without hesitation, the two seated themselves.
"Sect Master Ye, why have you ended up in such a peculiar state?" Nantian Sword Emperor scrutinized Ye Feng, noticing he was no longer using Chaos Mist to conceal himself but instead embodying the form of human-shaped Chaos Mist. It was highly unusual.
"I’m cultivating." Ye Feng replied. freёwebnoѵel.com
Upon hearing that, Nantian Sword Emperor fell silent momentarily, pondering deeply before he asked, "Do you truly intend to carve out a completely new path of cultivation, one that diverges entirely from Magic Cultivation, Body Cultivation, and Dual Cultivation of Magic and Body?"
"Yes." Ye Feng nodded.
"But isn’t this path extremely difficult? Even for you, it has reduced you to this state... Will you ever be able to regain your human form?"
Nantian Sword Emperor voiced his curiosity.
"Once I deduce a fully viable path for cultivation, I believe I’ll be able to regain my human form. But for now, it seems unlikely."
Ye Feng sighed faintly.
Carving out an entirely new cultivation path was immensely challenging.
Despite his profound understanding, trying to develop a feasible route in such a short amount of time felt like a hopeless endeavor, with no clear direction in sight.
"By the way, I have a question."
Ye Feng gazed at Nantian Sword Emperor. "Senior, have you ever visited a star known as Undying Star before?"
"Undying Star!"
Nantian Sword Emperor’s eyes sharpened, a look of reminiscence flickered within them. He gazed toward the distant sky, and after a long while, he said, "I’ve been there in my dreams."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng was dumbfounded.
Sword Saint Yuexi was equally astonished.
In his dreams?
What does that mean?
The two were perplexed.
As if to clarify, Nantian Sword Emperor said:
"That was many years ago. I had a dream where my Divine Soul left my body, and my cultivation was suppressed to the Supreme Saint Realm. I arrived at a plateau covered in blooming Other Shore Flowers."
"The dream felt incredibly real."
"I was trapped there, unable to escape."
"So, near the Other Shore Flower Sea, I built a small wooden hut and resided there in solitude, deducing Sword Dao, reaping significant insights."
"Three years ago, three individuals appeared."
"A man and two women. The man was named Chu Tianhe, the Sect Master of Dongzhou Tianhe Divine Sect. The women were Wen Xue and Wen Yue, Chu Tianhe’s dual cultivation companions."
"I guided them."
"Before they departed, I infused ten strands of Supreme Sword Qi into Chu Tianhe’s Cicada Wing Flying Sword."
"Then some time later."
"I awoke from my dream."
"Afterward, I investigated and discovered Chu Tianhe, Wen Xue, and Wen Yue indeed exist in Dongzhou."
"I actually helped them within a dream."
"This matter is truly bizarre!"
Nantian Sword Emperor murmured.
Seated nearby.
Ye Feng’s face was full of astonishment.
Nantian Sword Emperor had dreamt his way into Undying Star and turned out to be the mysterious Supreme Saint senior Chu Tianhe had mentioned.
The event was bewildering.
Could a person’s dreams truly connect to reality? If so, wouldn’t that mean one could commit acts like murder within a dream?
The more Ye Feng contemplated this, the more shaken he became.
"Senior, when you dreamt your way into Undying Star, did you experience anything unusual?"
Ye Feng quickly asked.
"Unusual feelings? Let me think deeply... Hm, during the dream, I felt like my Divine Soul had left my body and was guided by some mysterious force. Suddenly, I was in Undying Star. I believe it might not have been a dream, but rather my Divine Soul unknowingly entering Undying Star."
Nantian Sword Emperor offered his insight.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng fell into contemplation.
It seemed likely that Nantian Sword Emperor had been drawn into Undying Star under its own consciousness—no wonder he managed to access it within a dream state.
Before long.
Ye Feng wrapped up the discussion.
He realized that no matter how much he pursued answers at the moment, it was impossible to uncover why Nantian Sword Emperor could dream his way into Undying Star. Shifting his focus, Ye Feng remarked, "Actually, I know Chu Tianhe, Wen Xue, and Wen Yue."
"Oh?"
Nantian Sword Emperor raised an eyebrow in surprise.
"Back when I was traveling through Xuanzhou, I encountered Chu Tianhe, Wen Xue, and Wen Yue—who had enmity with the Mingwang Holy Sect—and became friends with them. Together, we attacked the Mingwang Huo."
Ye Feng recounted the event.
"I see! It appears our fates had long been intertwined!" Nantian Sword Emperor laughed.
"Indeed, it’s fate," Sword Saint Yuexi concurred. "Jian Nan Yi became the mentor of Misty Sect disciple Mo Ying; Sect Master Ye befriended Chu Tianhe; and Chu Tianhe, in turn, had received guidance from Sword Emperor."
Everything felt like a cycle.
In the grand designs of destiny, all had been preordained.
Shortly thereafter.
Ye Feng turned to Nantian Sword Emperor and asked, "Senior, do you have any advice regarding the entirely new cultivation path I am attempting to forge?"
Nantian Sword Emperor fixed his gaze on Ye Feng, discovering he couldn’t discern him at all. Shaking his head, he replied, "I don’t understand the path you’re trying to walk."
"Why do you say that?" Ye Feng urgently asked.
He deeply yearned to hear the view of such a supreme being, hoping for some enlightenment.
Nantian Sword Emperor fell silent again.
After some thought, he spoke candidly:
"Your current state is far too chaotic, akin to the opening of primordial chaos. Though you possess various Laws, their quantity is scarce. Coupled with the disorderly power within yourself, it becomes difficult to secure a perfect equilibrium."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng nodded repeatedly.
He had the same understanding.
"After some basic deductions, I believe you’re trying to forge a pathway centered around cultivating an inner universe."
Nantian Sword Emperor elaborated further.
"Precisely!" Ye Feng nodded once again.
Nantian Sword Emperor’s discernment was razor-sharp, his perspective diverged from the ordinary, and he had struck upon the core issue in one fell swoop.
"Cultivating an inner universe is an extremely difficult path, requiring an astronomical amount of cultivation resources."
"If you pursue this path, you’ll inevitably compete for resources with major factions, likely making many enemies along the way."
"However, the immense resource requirements also lead to a solid foundation, ensuring invincibility at the same rank."
"Ultimately, it’s a path with clear advantages and disadvantages!"
Nantian Sword Emperor analyzed earnestly.
