Martial Sovereign of Myriad Realms

"Of course. Although the Heavenly Secrets is the future direction, it also contains a huge amount of power. Moreover, this power can be said to be... all-powerful."    

    

The skinny old man chuckled and raised his arm. Ye Feng could feel the Heavenly Secrets power attaching to the skinny old man's fist. In an instant, this fist was as heavy as a mountain. The power of a casual strike was comparable to the full power of a peak Qi Zong.    

    

"I want a spear."    

    

The skinny old man winked at Ye Feng and said unhurriedly. As soon as he finished speaking, a long spear appeared out of thin air and was held in his hand.    

    

The material of this long spear was ordinary. It was just an ordinary wooden and iron spearhead.    

    

"This long spear is a top-grade spirit weapon."    

    

The skinny old man spoke again. The ordinary long spear became blurry for a moment, and then it turned into a cold weapon that flickered with a cold light. Ye Feng probed with his Spiritual Sense and found that this long spear had really become a top-grade spirit weapon.    

    

"Is this all the effect of the Heavenly Secrets power?"    

    

Ye Feng looked at the skinny old man in shock. The Heavenly Secrets power was simply omnipotent and extremely powerful.    

    

"It is the Heavenly Secrets power."    

    

The skinny old man nodded and said, "However, although the Heavenly Secrets power has endless uses, the other powers are not inferior to it. Because the upper limit of the Heavenly Secrets power is very low."    

    

"Anyone who masters the Heavenly Secrets power will never be able to break through to the Qi Zong realm."    

    

When the skinny old man said this, a trace of loneliness flashed across his eyes.    

    

"The upper limit is only the Qi Zong realm?"    

    

Hearing that, Ye Feng frowned. What the skinny old man said was true. The power of destiny was indeed not very strong. After all, for those with talent, the Qi Zong realm was only the starting point.    

    

Then, Ye Feng thought of Murong Chuchu and Zhang Tianwang's sister. If they both joined the Longevity Pavilion, wouldn't they also cultivate the power of destiny?    

    

"You don't have to worry. Martial Uncle Murong and Zhang Xue are both very talented. They won't cultivate the power of destiny."    

    

The skinny old man shook his head and said, "Have you heard of a saying?"    

    

"The power of destiny cannot be revealed."    

    

"Of course I have."    

    

Ye Feng nodded. This was the most common saying about the power of destiny.    

    

"The second problem is that those who master the power of destiny have a very short lifespan, much shorter than those of the same cultivation level."    

    

The skinny old man said in a deep voice, "By revealing the power of destiny, one's lifespan will be weakened. This is the protection of the Heavenly Dao towards the power of destiny. No one can avoid it."    

    

"I understand."    

    

Ye Feng nodded slightly. After understanding the power of destiny, he no longer desired this power. After all, there were too many restrictions and the weaknesses were too severe. Even if he had the opportunity to cultivate the power of destiny, if he could not solve the weaknesses, Ye Feng would not choose to cultivate it.    

    

While they were talking, Ye Feng and the rest followed the skinny old man to a forest. The wood of the forest was very strange. Some looked like stones, some looked like ice crystals, and some looked like flames.    

    

Ye Feng knew that this was the famous Illusion Wood Forest in the Sky Heavenly Cave. In fact, these trees all looked the same, and these strange appearances were all illusions.    

    

The Illusion Wood Forest had a strong ability to confuse people. Many cultivators who entered the Illusion Wood Forest would be lost in it, and even the existence of a King would not be able to escape.    

    

However, the Illusion Wood Forest was not dangerous. Even if it was only a cultivator at the Divine Ability Realm, after being lost in the Illusion Wood Forest, they would leave the Illusion Wood Forest seven days later.    

    

Because of this, although the Illusion Wood Forest was mysterious and difficult to explore, it made many cultivators flock to it. They felt that such a strange area definitely contained great opportunities.    

    

Now that the skinny old man had brought Ye Feng here, he immediately understood that the Illusion Wood Forest was not a place of great opportunities, but an entrance to the Longevity Tower. That was why it was so mysterious and difficult to explore.    

    

"Follow me closely, don't look around."    

    

The skinny old man warned one person, then brought Ye Feng and the other three into the Illusion Wood Forest. Under the skinny old man's lead, the four of them did not lose their way and obediently followed him. Soon, a stone door appeared in front of them.    

    

The stone door was a thousand feet tall, and there were many mysterious runes carved on it. Ye Feng had never seen it before, and it was difficult for him to understand its meaning. He could only sense that it contained a strange power, and it seemed to be very similar to the power of destiny.    

    

"Let's go."    

    

The skinny old man pressed his palm on the stone door, and the stone door slowly opened. A dazzling light shone out from the gap between the stone door. Ye Feng and the other three couldn't help but narrow their eyes.    

    

When he got used to the light, the stone door was completely opened. Ye Feng saw the scene inside the stone door. It was actually a vast and unimaginable world.    

    

This area seemed to be built above the nine heavens. Clouds and mist lingered, and palaces stood in a forest. There were also flying cranes, strange beasts, and warriors wearing Golden Armor with dignified expressions.    

    

Ye Feng raised his eyebrows slightly. He could feel that these cranes, strange beasts, and warriors were all heavenly beasts.    

    

Since they were heavenly beasts, they followed some rules. This was a restriction of the Heavenly Abode Grotto. It seemed that this area was a place similar to a secret realm.    

    

"That one is the Longevity Tower."    

    

The skinny old man brought Ye Feng and the other three people to step into the stone door, then pointed to a tall building not far away.    

    

On the tall building, there were sculptures of various sizes and shapes, and there were also similar mysterious runes on the stone door.    

    

"Your Majesty has returned?"    

    

At this time, a squad of warriors in Golden Armor patrolling approached. The leader of the squad, who had a dignified expression, saw the skinny old man and immediately went up to greet him.    

    

"Yes, I brought a few guests back."    

    

The skinny old man nodded, pointed to Ye Feng and the others, and said to the patrolling captain.    

    

"Since they are the guests of Your Majesty, we will not investigate. Please be at ease."    

    

The patrolling captain nodded politely, and continued to patrol with the warriors.    

    

"Your Majesty?"    

    

Ye Feng looked at the skinny old man with a strange expression. He felt that it was a bit strange. Logically speaking, although the Heavenly Beasts acted according to the rules, they were still very clear about their own kind and those who were training.    

    

The skinny old man was obviously a trainee, so the patrolling captain and the Golden Armor Warriors should not be so polite to the skinny old man. Shouldn't they be on opposing sides?    

    

Or could it be that this was the effect of the power of destiny?    

    

"Little friend, this world is different from ordinary mystic realms."    

    

The skinny old man seemed to have sensed Ye Feng's thoughts, and turned around to say with a smile.    

    

"Oh? I would like to ask Your Majesty for more details."    

    

Ye Feng raised his eyebrows and said jokingly.    

    

"Haha, don't mock me. What kind of immortal am I?"    

    

The skinny old man waved his hand with a laugh and said, "I can't explain too much about this place to you, but you can ask Martial Uncle Murong. She is the disciple of the Wood Goat Emperor, and her status is much higher than mine. I should be able to tell you about the things here."    

    

"Alright."    

    

Ye Feng nodded. Thinking about how he was about to see Murong Chuchu, he was a little excited. He hurriedly followed the skinny old man and headed to the birthday pavilion with anticipation.
