The Clan Master Can’t possibly Be A Mortal
Chapter 1178 - 1178: Spiritual Symbol

"Tribute to the departed souls!"

The Heavenly Dao of Shenzhou spoke loudly, the sound traversed the entire Shenzhou Continent and projected the scene here to different parts of the world.

People raised their heads and could see the image of the Holy Tomb.

"The Master of Wanzong Holy Land, Miaoyin Ancient Saint, and other Ancient Saints fought for the Shenzhou Continent in the foreign lands and finally died in battle. They are the heroic spirits of our Shenzhou, and today, we pay tribute to them!"

The Heavenly Dao of Shenzhou spoke again.

Upon hearing this, people all bowed towards the direction of the Heavenly Origin Sea, and some took out various tribute items and offered worship through the air.

On this day, the atmosphere throughout the Shenzhou was very somber.

People were immersed in sadness.

Some even wept loudly.

The entire tribute process lasted for nine hours.

During this period, heavy snow began to fall over the Shenzhou Continent. Everywhere was covered in thick snow, and the temperature dropped drastically.

The next day.

The tribute ended.

People returned to their homes.

The followers within the powers of Martial Glory Holy Land, Wanzong Holy Land, and Tianmiao Holy Land were all immersed in a sorrowful atmosphere.

In a grand hall within a valley.

Baiyu and Hong Miao looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.

"What a perfect scenario!"

"With the fall of the Master of Wanzong Holy Land, you and I are the only two Ancient Saints left in Wanzong Holy Land."

"Exactly!"

"Now, our words carry significant weight."

"From now on in Wanzong Holy Land, we two are revered above all, and others are merely tools used for enhancing our cultivation levels."

"Exactly!"

"However, we still need to beware of the incarnation left by the Lord of Wanzong Holy Land before he left Shenzhou. Although this person can only exhibit power almost close to that of entering the Saint Realm and is far inferior to us, we must avoid a head-on collision."

"Don't worry!"

"The division left by the Master of Wanzong Holy Land cannot enhance his cultivation level and is essentially just a puppet, not a concern."

"It's wise to be cautious!"

"Alright, I will listen to Madame."

Baiyu and Hong Miao, this scheming couple, laughed slyly.

...

Tianmiao Holy Land.

People kneeled in the mourning hall, looking at the portrait of Miaoyin Ancient Saint with faces filled with grief.

The Holy Master Yin Rurong betrayed Shenzhou and died.

Miaoyin Ancient Saint went to Tianlan Immortal Realm and died.

Even the incarnation died.

Now, Tianmiao Holy Land was severely weakened, apart from the Old Saint Master whose whereabouts were unknown, Tianmiao Holy Land now has no one in the Saint Realm.

And the Old Saint Master did not leave behind any incarnation.

If even the Old Saint Master also fell, then Tianmiao Holy Land would truly have no Ancient Saint left.

Although the bodies of the Lord of Wanzong Holy Land and Lord of Martial Glory Holy Land perished, at least they left behind an incarnation before leaving Shenzhou, although it can't cultivate, at least it didn't completely die.

Their incarnations serve as a spiritual symbol for the Sect.

With their rich experience, they can still help the Sect cultivate new potential candidates for the Saint Realm.

But the current situation in Tianmiao Holy Land is much worse.

Without a Saint Realm expert, they won't last long and will face the crisis of decline.

"Alas!"

The Great Elder of Tianmiao Holy Land held his cane, bowing his head in a sigh.

The others also had sorrowful expressions.

Around Shenzhou, the atmosphere gradually changed.

In some Holy Lands where Saint Realm experts returned, there was rejoicing and celebrations, especially in Jiaoyang Holy Land, which was now in a celebratory mood due to the return of Jiaoyang Ancient Saint.

On the saintly throne.

Jiaoyang Ancient Saint sat there with a smile on his face, his body and incarnation reunified, making him whole again.

"My fellow friends, you have all worked hard in managing our Holy Land these years."

Jiaoyang Ancient Saint sighed with relief.

It was fortunate he encountered Ye Feng, otherwise, he would never have returned in this lifetime and would eventually be drained dry by the Master of Heavenly Immortal Palace.

"Master, what exactly have you been through all these years?" Yuzhu could not suppress her curiosity.

Being the chief disciple of Jiaoyang Ancient Saint, she had a good relationship with him, otherwise, she would not dare to ask such a question.

"I..."

The corner of Jiaoyang Ancient Saint's mouth twitched.

He couldn't possibly reveal the truth, could he?

If he did, he would basically be socially dead across the entire Shenzhou community, with everyone knowing he was treated as a consort by the Master of the Heavenly Immortal Palace and drained continuously for thousands to tens of thousands of years.

"Cough cough!"

"I was trapped somewhere, surrounded by strong enemies, but fortunately, I was lucky enough to make a narrow escape."

"Later, I killed those strong enemies, fought hard, and managed to hold on until Sect Master Ye's arrival. With his help, I advanced to the Heavenly Saint level and brought back more than a hundred dual cultivation companions."

Jiaoyang Ancient Saint stroked his long beard, as if recounting the tale.

Upon hearing this, everyone was filled with immense admiration.

"Master, you are truly incredible!" Yuzhu was also captivated by the "heroic deeds" of Jiaoyang Ancient Saint.

"Hehe!"

Jiaoyang Ancient Saint kept a calm expression, but inside, he felt incredibly awkward, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Ten Thousand Swords Holy Land.

Elder Wu Jian sat on the throne of the Chief Elder, surrounded by several dozen cultivators, some Quasi-Saints, some Heavenly Emperors, all very powerful.

These people were the core of Ten Thousand Swords Holy Land.

Wan Jianyi, who was acquainted with Ye Feng, was also present.

"We welcome the return of Wu Jian Ancient Saint!"

The cultivators present all stood up to welcome him.

"No need for such formalities!"

Elder Wu Jian waved his hand.

"This trip to the Tianlan Immortal Realm, although fraught with great dangers, I have survived. The gains are not trivial, and finally, with the help of Sect Master Ye, I ascended to the Heavenly Saint Realm."

"From today onwards!"

"Our Ten Thousand Swords Holy Land must establish good relations with the Misty Sect, and we must avoid any conflicts with this sect, understood?"

Elder Wu Jian looked around, giving his instructions.

"We will strictly obey the order!"

The cultivators of Ten Thousand Swords Holy Land nodded one after another.

...

On the seventh day since the completion of the Holy Tomb.

The voice of Shenzhou Heavenly Dao was heard once again.

"This journey to the Tianlan Immortal Realm, Misty Sect's Sect Master Ye Feng heroically turned the tide, not only rescuing Jiaoyang, Wu Jian, and Qingyuan, the three Ancient Saints, but also slaying powerful enemies such as Tianluo Immortal Venerable, avenging the fallen Saints of Shenzhou."

"This great kindness and virtue should be remembered by all."

As the voice fell, the entire Shenzhou was shaken.

This was a commendation from the Shenzhou Heavenly Dao!

Ye Feng's reputation and status soared once again, stirring discussions among countless cultivators across the Shenzhou Continent.

"It turns out that it was Sect Master Ye who turned the tide again!"

"He even killed an Immortal Venerable?"

"What level of cultivator is he?"

"I heard that in the Tianlan Immortal Realm, the ranks of Human Immortal, Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, and Immortal Venerable correspond to our Shenzhou's Saint Entry, Saint Manifestation, Heavenly Saint, and Supreme Saint respectively."

"So, does it mean that Sect Master Ye has slain a Supreme Saint Realm expert?"

"That's terrifying!"

The Prestige Points of Misty Sect surged explosively, breaking through two trillion, swiftly approaching three trillion.

For a moment, Misty Sect was unparalleled in fame.

The throne of Shenzhou's number one sect was firmly secured.

...

Misty Sect.

The surge in Prestige Points delighted Ye Feng.

"Seven days have passed... time really flies fast!"

Ye Feng sipped his Enlightenment Tea, looking at Ancient Spirit Immortal Venerate, Jiao Xirou, Qingyuan Ancient Saint, Dan Hanyu, Chu Tianlan, and others standing in front of him, he remarked sentimentally.

In recent days.

Ye Feng had introduced them to the elders and disciples of Misty Sect, letting everyone know that Misty Sect had gained a new Immortal Venerable Level Great Power, as well as several Saint Realm experts.

Today's Misty Sect had more than ten breakthroughs in the Saint Realm.

Tens of thousands of disciples.

Thousands of Spiritual Beasts.

Along with treasures like the Immortal Spirit Holy Spring, Heavenly Dao Green Lotus, and Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree, both in terms of Sect strength and its foundation, Misty Sect firmly held the position as Shenzhou's number one sect.

And Ye Feng had become a symbolic figure for Shenzhou.

His presence inspired countless individuals.

Everyone trained diligently, striving to chase after, with the hope of becoming a mighty cultivator like Ye Feng, ready to step forward in times of crisis facing their homeland in Shenzhou, contributing their strength.

Ye Feng, looking at Chu Tianlan and others, asked, "How have you been these past few days? Have you had any gains?"

Ancient Spirit Immortal Venerate replied:

"I am very comfortable in the Sect, the disciples like to ask questions, their cultivation is diligent, and some disciples are even in retreat trying to break through to the Quasi-Saint level. They are highly gifted, giving me a feeling of being back home."

Such a sect was full of vitality and enthusiasm, free from deceit and genuinely sincere; he liked it very much.

The others nodded repeatedly.

To them, living and cultivating here at Misty Sect was far better than anywhere else before.

"My cultivation progress is quite good; I am already a Heavenly Emperor, and becoming an Immortal is only a matter of time," said Chu Tianlan.
