Chapter 2112: Chapter 2112: The Tea Tree’s Second Transformation

"Kid, are you courting death? How dare you speak to me like this." Uncle Thirteen stepped forward, holding a mass of radiant law in his palm. It contained a Great Thousand World, capable of swallowing cultivators and crushing them alive with immense power.

"Early Dao Monarch stage, what’s there to be arrogant about?"

A muffled voice sounded, followed by a mid-stage Dao Monarch aura bursting out, striking Uncle Thirteen in the chest, sending him flying back hundreds of meters.

"Wow!"

Uncle Thirteen vomited a mouthful of blood, looking in horror at the place where he previously stood. There, stood an elder with white hair and beard, looking ethereal and wise.

This person was the Radiant Dao Venerable.

However, he was disguised, appearing different from his true appearance to avoid being recognized. Just now, Ye Feng told him he could reveal his strength slightly.

Thus, the Radiant Dao Venerable made his move.

He disguised himself as mid-stage Dao Monarch, keeping his true cultivation level hidden.

"Isn’t this Ye Feng’s old servant?"

"Oh my god, he’s a mid-stage Dao Monarch!"

"No wonder this old servant was mysteriously absent when we visited the Tea Tree Wilderness; being mid-stage Dao Monarch, he must have been stopped outside."

The crowd of young talents blinked, understanding dawned on them.

"How is this possible! Ye Feng, you’re just a Five-Turn Heavenly Venerable, how can you have a mid-stage Dao Monarch as an old servant?"

The Shenque City Young City Lord’s mindset was shattered.

Uncle Thirteen coldly gazed at the Radiant Dao Venerable, his expression ugly, and said in a deep voice, "Friend, do you really intend to oppose our Shenque City?"

The Radiant Dao Venerable ignored him.

On the arena.

Ye Feng loudly declared, "Now, this is an official duel between me and the Shenque City Young City Lord, hosted by the True Dragon Commerce Association, absolutely fair. As long as your Young City Lord doesn’t admit defeat, I will not let go. And those attempting to forcibly stop the duel, are you openly opposing the True Dragon Commerce Association?"

This move of borrowing the tiger’s might successfully deterred Uncle Thirteen and Miaoyin Fairy, among others.

"Do you admit defeat?" Ye Feng continued to torment the Shenque City Young City Lord.

"I will not admit defeat!"

The Shenque City Young City Lord stubbornly refused to admit defeat, being ruthlessly humiliated by Ye Feng, looking very disheveled and embarrassed.

Below the arena.

Miaoyin Fairy was very anxious, hurriedly persuading the Shenque City Young City Lord to admit defeat, otherwise, it would only be more humiliating.

"It infuriates me!"

Helplessly, the Shenque City Young City Lord was forced to utter in a mosquito-like whisper the words "admit defeat".

Ye Feng deliberately used a formation to amplify the Shenque City Young City Lord’s voice a hundredfold, making the entire event platform hear clearly.

"You... villainous!"

The Shenque City Young City Lord was so angry that he spat blood, lost face, and his Dao heart nearly collapsed, fainting on the spot.

"Scram!"

Ye Feng kicked the Shenque City Young City Lord off the arena, sending him beside Uncle Thirteen.

"Kid, just you wait!"

Uncle Thirteen picked up the Shenque City Young City Lord, glaring coldly at Ye Feng, then glanced at the Radiant Dao Venerable, full of resentment, and quickly flew away.

"Hmph!"

Miaoyin Fairy gave Ye Feng a cold snort and also left with her subordinates.

Then, the venue buzzed with discussions.

"Ye Feng’s backing is too strong. Do you think his behind-the-scenes support is a Dao Venerable?"

"It’s very possible."

"After all, even a mid-stage Dao Monarch is willing to become Ye Feng’s old servant. The backing behind Ye Feng is likely a Dao Venerable, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so confident."

The young talents discussed.

Lin Daotong glared at Ye Feng and said, "Well done, Ye Feng, I didn’t expect your backing to be so strong."

"I have no backing at all!" Ye Feng spread his hands, displaying an innocent face.

"Tch!"

The young talents snorted dismissively, not believing at all.

"Ye Feng, I’m curious, have you broken the ninety-nine times combat power limit?" Lin Daotong asked, stating the question everyone was concerned about.

"No, how could that be possible? Of course, my combat power has indeed reached ninety-nine times, and coupled with my domain that weakens the enemy’s combat power, I can dominate the Shenque City Young City Lord."

Ye Feng replied so.

The next moment, he displayed the Asura Domain and other methods that could weaken opponents’ strength, which indeed had a huge impact on the surrounding young talents.

"So that’s it!"

The young talents realized, believing Ye Feng’s words, thinking it was impossible to truly break the limit.

"Ninety-nine times combat power, that’s insane!"

Lin Daotong couldn’t help but exclaim.

Tian Qi and Zhou Yan exchanged a glance, knowing Ye Feng was fooling everyone. In fact, they knew Ye Feng was a cultivator of the Internal Universe System, with a true cultivation level at the Quasi-Heavenly Venerable Realm, and his combat power had long exceeded the limit.

But, they didn’t say anything.

Now, they and Ye Feng were comrades who advanced and retreated together, already life-and-death friends, it was impossible to expose Ye Feng’s secret to others.

Soon, the young talents dispersed to various areas of interest to purchase Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

Some went to buy ancient books and scrolls.

In a teahouse.

Tian Qi, Zhou Yan, Ye Feng, the Radiant Dao Venerable, and others sat together, all people from Haizhou.

"Ye Feng, you’ve really offended the Shenque City Young City Lord terribly, what are you going to do next? We don’t have a Dao Venerable backing us, if we’re found out, it’ll be terrible."

Tian Qi’s expression was slightly solemn.

Ye Feng said, "Even without one, we can still scare the Shenque City and Miaoyin Square people. After all, the fact that the Radiant Dao Venerable is my old servant is true, and others firmly believe it, consistently thinking someone who can have a Dao Monarch as a servant must have at least a Dao Venerable as backing."

"Thus, it makes them wary, but a paper cannot wrap the fire, it will eventually be exposed." Zhou Yan understood Ye Feng’s meaning but was still worried.

Ye Feng smiled, "Once we eliminate the Blood Moon Clan and help your father advance to Dao Venerable, won’t we have one then?"

Zhou Yan was taken aback, feeling very moved.

Ye Feng continued, "In a few months, I can advance to the Heavenly Dao Realm. Then, I’ll accelerate my cultivation speed as much as possible. Once our strength reaches the Heavenly Venerable limit, we can assault the Blood Moon Clan. Once successful, Elder Chaos Daoist should be able to break through."

Chaos Daoist, Zhou Yan’s father, Zhou Jian.

"Hopefully!" Zhou Yan nodded, "But, the Annihilation Dao Venerable’s tomb is about to open, then, many Dao Venerables and Dao Monarchs will enter Haizhou, the situation will be chaotic, I’m worried the plan will be disrupted."

"It shouldn’t be so soon." Ye Feng kept deducing, "I think it will take about a year for the Annihilation Dao Venerable’s tomb to open, there’s still time."

"However, one year is not enough for us to break through the Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable Peak." Zhou Yan spread his hands, "At my pace, I need at least ten thousand more years!"

"I also need over ten thousand years to cultivate the Tenth Universe Ring, with combat power on par with Dao Monarch." Tian Qi also stated his situation.

"Time is not an issue, just watch." Ye Feng took out two shining altars.

Among them, a breath of time emerged.

Tian Qi and Zhou Yan’s pupils shrank.

"It’s actually a Time Array, entering it seems to accelerate time," the two exclaimed.

"This is the Altar of Time I crafted myself, at most it can accelerate time up to ten thousand times, but it requires massive energy and Life Origin supply. Given your current situation, it can only accelerate up to twenty thousand times at most."

Ye Feng explained.

"That’s enough, more than enough. Even with just a twenty thousand times acceleration, in half a year, I can use the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures purchased during this time to break through to the Peak of Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable, possessing the initial combat power of a Dao Monarch."

Zhou Yan excitedly patted Ye Feng’s shoulder.

"Ye Feng, thanks!" Tian Qi also patted Ye Feng’s shoulder, usually a man of few words, but today he laughed heartily, his mood bright and sunny.

Soon after, they went to cultivate.

Ye Feng allowed the disciples to move freely and go to eliminate villains across levels, while he entered the resting room, then returned to the Shenzhou Continent in the Three Realms Universe.

"Master, you’re back."

The gigantic Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree trembled slightly.

"Yes, I’m back, and I brought you the Phoenix Dawn Dotted Star Grass, Purple Lightning Crystal of a million years age, Cold Water Qilin Fruit of ten million years..."

Ye Feng took out a large quantity of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

Some were Spiritual Medicine, some were crystals, and some were special substances akin to minerals.

"Next, I’ll arrange a formation for you."

Ye Feng set up a Time Acceleration Formation around it, adjusted to ten thousand times acceleration, and then continued to arrange a special formation with nine formation eyes, each holding treasures like Phoenix Dawn Dotted Star Grass.

Once the formation was completed, it activated automatically.

Buzz Buzz!

The treasures in the formation eyes were refined, extracting various Origin substances, which infiltrated the key parts of the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree’s body, assisting it in its transformation.

Rumble...

When the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree’s transformation was completed, it finally attracted an overwhelming Heavenly Tribulation, with Ye Feng assisting it to transcend the tribulation, absorbing Thunder Origin, causing the tea tree to grow considerably taller.

Rustle...

When the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree finished transcending tribulation, its height increased by a third, and the branches connected to the trunk expanded significantly, the extending distance to both sides increased by about half, growing more branches, and the total number of leaves doubled compared to before the transformation.

This greatly delighted Ye Feng.

"It’s really great!"

"The number of tea leaves that can be harvested daily can easily surpass one million leaves, and the medicinal efficacy has increased by fifty percent compared to its first transformation."

Ye Feng analyzed.

"Indeed, Master." The Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree had already transformed into a cultivator of flora, a huge human face manifesting on the trunk, also able to emerge from the ground, using root tendrils to mimic octopus legs, walking on the road.

Its cultivation level was comparable to a Third Turn Heavenly Venerable.

"Also a cultivator of flora, and in the second transformation stage of the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree, why is your cultivation only at Third Turn Heavenly Venerable, while the old tea tree in the Tea Tree Wilderness has early Dao Monarch cultivation?"

Ye Feng expressed wonder.

The Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree explained: "Second transformation of the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree represents my talent and not my cultivation level. If I don’t continue transforming and start cultivating whole-heartedly, in the future, I can also break through to early Dao Monarch. However, this is already the limit of a Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree’s second transformation. To continue to break through cultivation, one must transform a third time."

After a pause, the tea tree continued to explain:

"According to the ancestral memory I’ve obtained, the limit of three transformations is mid-Dao Monarch, four transformations’ limit is late Dao Monarch, and five transformations’ limit is the peak of Dao Monarch."

"Six transformations’ limit is early Dao Venerable, and the limits for seven, eight, and nine transformations are mid-Dao Venerable, late Dao Venerable, and peak Dao Venerable respectively."

"If I can transform ten times, evolving into a Nine-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree, I can possess the potential to become a Grand Dao Venerable cultivator of flora. Beyond that, I’m not sure."

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng realized.

The colors, Seven-Colored and Nine-Colored, of the Enlightenment Tea Tree, as well as the number of transformations, represent the cultivation level upper limit of a cultivator of flora after transformation, belonging to the cultivation aptitude.

"Alright, I’m ready to provide the materials needed for your third transformation, you should cultivate with all your might and strive to break through to early Dao Monarch as soon as possible."

Ye Feng said affirmatively.

He could apply over ten thousand times of time acceleration formation to the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree for prolonged periods.

Thus, cultivation proceeds quickly.

"Yes." The Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree blinked its eyes, equivalent to a human nodding.

[Sect achievement count +1]

At this moment, Ye Feng’s hand chimed with a notification sound, he quickly opened the system panel to check the progress.

[Sub-task 1]

[Sect Leader Cultivation Level: Quasi-Heavenly Venerable/One-Turn Heavenly Venerable]

[Sect Heavenly Venerable Count: 113/100]

[Sect Achievement Count: 100/100]

Upon seeing this, Ye Feng was overjoyed.

Aside from the Sect Leader’s cultivation level not yet meeting the standard, the Sect Heavenly Venerable count has exceeded the requirement, and the Sect Achievement Count has just reached one hundred, thus fulfilling the requirement.

"In over two months, after I pass through the last few Heavenly Tribulations, I can complete the evolution."

Ye Feng clenched his fist.

He aims to transform the Three-Lifetimes Universe into the Chaos Three-Lives Universe, with a total of nine Heavenly Tribulations, one each month, the time referred to is that of the Origin of All Things, even if Ye Feng applies ten thousand times of time acceleration to himself, it is ineffective.

So, still need to wait.

After resting a bit, Ye Feng returned to the event platform, leading Mo Ying, Chu Tianlan, and other core members of the Sect on a grand procurement, acquiring various Divine Weapons for the Sect.

"I’ll take this." The Radiant Daoist set his eyes on a piece of golden ore, which was Immortal Gold capable of repairing his Life-bound Divine Weapon, the Radiant Divine Mirror.

"Alright, I’ll buy it for you." Ye Feng generously spent one hundred million Origin Stones, purchasing this item for the Radiant Daoist.

The Radiant Daoist is not a member of the Sect.

But, this person is quite loyal to Ye Feng, currently the most reliable fighter, naturally one should do their utmost to help improve his strength to play a greater role.

Soon after, everyone continued the procurement.

Meanwhile, in the center of a super city far away from Soaring Sky City, inside the Floating Holy Palace.

Crunch!

An awe-inspiring middle-aged man dressed in golden armor and emitting light glared at the just-woken Young City Lord of Shenque City, his eyes full of rage and a hint of disappointment.

"You fool! Insisting on a conflict with Ye Feng, look what happened now, a token of Annihilation Dao Venerable, which should have cost twenty or thirty billion, ended up costing seventy billion!"

"Prodigal son, you’re a prodigal!"

"Being wasteful is one thing, but losing in one-on-one combat to Ye Feng in public, utterly crushed with no ability to resist, you are nothing but a complete and utter failure!"

"Back in the day, I should have left you as a stain on the wall!"

The City Lord of Shenque City was furious, cursing and kicking the Young City Lord of Shenque City relentlessly.

"Father, father, stop hitting... ah!"

The Young City Lord of Shenque City pleaded for mercy, looking amiss towards Uncle Thirteen standing nearby, but the latter merely stared at his nose, then at his heart, showing no intention to intervene.

"No..."

Eventually, the Young City Lord of Shenque City was beaten unconscious, before he passed out, he let out a heart-wrenching scream, his hatred for Ye Feng reaching its peak.
