The Clan Master Can t possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 523: Chapter 523: My Name is Wang Ling, the Core of the World, Ancient Battlefield
 

Even the nine Element Gathering Realm elders were all shocked, their faces soon filled with disbelief.

Could it be that the ancestor had them stack these countless bodies here in order to cultivate this spiritual corpse?

“Sect Leader, could it be that the spiritual corpse lies within that coffin?” Yan Ruyu was also frightened, clutching at the corner of Ye Feng’s clothing.

“Yes, it is.”

Ye Feng nodded.

Upon hearing this, everyone felt a tingling sensation on their scalps.

Some disciples were shaking so badly they could barely hold onto their spiritual artifacts. If it weren’t for Ye Feng being there, they truly wanted to flee.

“What’s there to panic about? It’s just a first-layer Divine Origin Realm spiritual corpse. Even after tens of thousands of years of cultivation, I reckon it’s only at the level of the fourth layer of the Divine Origin Realm, not strong.”

Ye Feng said indifferently.

“Exactly, I can beat him down,” Hu Feifei stepped forward, scraping her nose with her finger.

Upon hearing this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, those nine Element Gathering Realm elders were trembling uncontrollably.

They felt as though the sky was falling.

It turned out that the so-called “Divine Spirit” their ancestors had been worshipping generation after generation was actually just a spiritual corpse!

“Sect Leader, has the spiritual corpse awakened?” Huo Yunjie asked.

“Not yet,” Ye Feng shook his head.

In fact, there was a flaw in the formation.

The former master of the spiritual corpse could never have lived a second life; all his efforts were in vain.

However, after tens of thousands of years of cultivation, the spiritual corpse had absorbed the remnants of countless souls’ power and combined them with the memories of its previous life, giving birth to a new, stronger being.

He possessed the memories of the spiritual corpse’s previous life.

But he was no longer him.

Moreover, there was a flaw in the cultivation of the spiritual corpse. It couldn’t awaken just yet; it had to rely on external forces to break through the bottleneck.

Whiz!

Ye Feng released five strands of Wind Element Spirit Energy, transforming them into pure power that fused into the coffin, breaking the last restraint on the spiritual corpse.

Creak!

The lid of the coffin suddenly popped open, revealing the main coffin inside, followed by the lid of the main coffin soaring into the air, exposing the spiritual corpse lying within.

It was a young man with handsome features.

He appeared to be in his thirties, with three strands of long beard, exuding a somewhat unique charm.

His body emitted the aura of a fourth-layer Divine Origin Realm.

Hum!

The young man’s eyes burst open suddenly.

His gaze was clear, like that of a newborn baby.

But soon he was bombarded with the vast memories from his previous life, a headache splitting his head as he couldn’t help but clutch it and groan.

“Ah…”

The young man let out a scream.

The terrifying divine might merged into his cries, shaking heaven and earth. Hu Feifei instantly entered her First Combat State. With her imposing aura unleashed, she neutralized the momentum of the young man.

“My name is Wang Ling.”

“I existed ten thousand years ago.”

“I died, yet I have lived again, in an alternate way.”

“I am no longer who I once was, but I have inherited all the memories of my predecessor, thus in a way continuing his life.”

The young man suddenly sat up straight, his tone low and magnetic as he spoke.

All beings within the Spirit Origin Realm could hear him clearly.

“Wang Ling… undead spirit? This name, it seems it was destined to be!” Ye Feng couldn’t help but comment to himself upon hearing this.

Whiz!

Wang Ling rose into the air, startling everyone.

Stomp!

Hu Feifei quickly moved forward three steps, the Explosive Stick resting on her shoulder, her pink hair cascading down and wildly dancing in the wind.

Standing there, she alone confronted Wang Ling.

“Let him come here!”

But Ye Feng said this.

Hu Feifei didn’t hesitate and shifted her body to the side.

With a piercing gaze, Wang Ling looked at Ye Feng from across the space, and after a long moment, suddenly gave a salute with his hands, “Thank you, Sect Leader, for helping me break through the bottleneck. Without your help, I could not have come back to life.”

Without Ye Feng, he would have been a spiritual corpse without a complete consciousness, never able to awaken.

“So, what do you plan to do next?”

Ye Feng asked with profound meaning.

This was a Spiritual Corpse of the fourth layer of the Divine Origin Realm, whose body had been nurtured by formations for ten thousand years and had already become an Indestructible Vajra Body, achieving true dual cultivation of magic and body, with unrivaled combat strength.

In a battle amongst equals, rarely did it have a match.

“As the Sect Leader has granted me life, Wang Ling will naturally stay by your side for my whole life in gratitude.”

Wang Ling spoke thus.

He had the memories of his previous life and knew the situation of the outside world.

Although he did not know what force Misty Sect was, he could tell that Ye Feng was very mysterious. He seemed to have no cultivation level but had numerous methods, making him the most suitable figure to follow.

“Then you shall join Misty Sect and become an Inner Sect Elder!”

Ye Feng said with a smile.

He had helped Wang Ling break through his bottleneck, clarified all his chaotic consciousness, and ensured the other party’s awakening, hoping that he would join Misty Sect and become a great combat force under his banner.

As Wang Miao wrote down Wang Ling’s information in the Book of Names and stamped the Sect Leader’s Seal, the system’s prompt sounded in his mind.

“Ding, Inner Sect Elder ‘Wang Ling’ recruited, Indestructible Vajra Body, Supreme Grade foundation, Divine Origin Realm Fourth Layer.”

The next moment.

Ye Feng felt a magnificent force bestow upon him, adding to him the strength of a power at the Divine Origin Realm fourth layer level.

“We’ve seen Elder Wang Ling!”

Li Zilong, Gong Qingqiu, Mo Ying, and others paid their respects one after another.

They also did not expect that right upon arriving in the Secret Realm, the Sect would gain an Inner Sect Elder of the Divine Origin Realm level.

However, this was good news and worth celebrating.

“Greetings everyone!”

Wang Ling looked around and greeted everyone with a handfold.

Afterward, he turned towards those nine Element Gathering Realm elders and as their gazes crossed, the latter continuously bowed their heads, not daring to meet Wang Ling’s eyes.

“Thank you for your years of service as Tomb Guardians.”

Wang Ling spoke.

Tomb Guardians?

The nine Element Gathering Realm elders bitterly smiled.

So the significance of the three ancient towns’ existence was to guard a tomb!

But then they thought, to be a Tomb Guardian for a Great Power of the Divine Origin Realm was also an eight-lifetime blessing.

At this time, Ye Feng said, “Wang Ling, now that you are awake, we should return to the Sect.”

“Sect Leader, not so fast!”

Wang Ling pointed to the coffin below, “In my memories, within the Spirit Origin Realm, there lies a shocking secret.”

“Eh?” Ye Feng was startled.

He quickly activated his Eye of Insight to observe the coffin below, but found nothing special.

However, when he raised his head to look at the artificial sun in the sky, created from spiritual energy, his pupils shrank.

“The Spirit Origin Realm can actually be relocated!”

Previously, he hadn’t noticed the sun in the sky, but now he realized that the world core of the Spirit Origin Realm was hidden inside this artificial sun.

And the imprint of the world core had been branded on Wang Ling’s body during the ten thousand years of nurture.

In other words, Wang Ling was the Boundary Master of the Spirit Origin Realm!

“Rise!”

Wang Ling formed hand seals and shouted loudly.

The next moment, waves-like ripples emitted from the artificial sun, sweeping across the entire Spirit Origin Realm. Under the astonished gazes of everyone, the entire Spirit Origin Realm transformed into a blur of light, entering the artificial sun.

Soon, the radiant light gradually faded.

As everyone came back to their senses, they found themselves above the mountain range at the entrance of the Secret Realm.

The light screen in the mountains had vanished.

In its place was a ten-meter-diameter artificial sun suspended above Wang Ling’s head.

“Is this the Spirit Origin Realm?”

The crowd asked curiously, pointing at the artificial sun.

“That is correct!”

Wang Ling nodded, “The Spirit Origin Realm was not created by me in my former life, but was a large Cave Heaven World that I obtained by chance. To my knowledge, within this Secret Realm, there is a portal sealed that leads to an Ancient Battlefield.”

Ancient Battlefield!

Upon hearing these four words, Ye Feng’s gaze sharpened.

For him, an Ancient Battlefield meant a vast amount of Ancient Heroic Spirit Force; if he could go to the battlefield, his strength would surely surge.

This discovery was of immense significance!
