The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 2051 - 2040: Divine King Realm! Racing Against Time!
"After you leave the house later, quickly run the Demon Heaven Art within your body. Let the demonic qi from the Demon Heaven Art envelop you. This demonic qi is something ghost cultivators particularly favor. Under its coverage, your human aura will be extraordinarily concealed, thus preventing you from being attacked by ghost cultivators temporarily."
"However, this period lasts only about half an hour."
Just after Old Hei Jiang Yuntian finished explaining to Ye Chenfeng, a deafening roar echoed across the heavens and earth, causing the windows of the house to shudder and the tightly shut door to emit an "eek! eek!" sound.
The ghost cultivators outside who had been incessantly striking the door and windows unexpectedly knelt on the ground one by one.
Immediately, an extremely terrifying energy fluctuation spread throughout the entire Ancient City. Even with the suppression of the Ghost Suppression Seal, Ye Chenfeng and the others felt a surge of blood qi within their bodies.
Qin Zhou’s face slightly changed. His voice trembled a bit as he said, "A Ghost King, this is definitely a Ghost King within the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin. Its strength has at least reached the Divine King Realm."
Divine King Realm?
Ye Chenfeng looked at Qin Zhou with a puzzled expression. He still didn’t know the power levels beyond the Heavenly God Realm! Previously, he never had a pressing need to ask Old Bai and Old Hei, as he was still far from the Heavenly God Realm! Knowing the levels beyond the Heavenly God Realm would only affect his mindset.
However, since a powerhouse above the Heavenly God Realm has appeared, understanding it is reasonable.
Seeing Ye Chenfeng’s puzzled look, Qin Zhou explained, "The Divine King Realm is a level above the Heavenly God Realm. Within forces in the Central Continent, to be classified as a first-tier force, the sect must have at least one Heavenly God Realm, sixth-layer powerhouse, holding the fort, which is the minimum."
"Of course, that’s merely a barely first-tier force. In those top-tier first-tier forces, there must be a Divine King Realm powerhouse holding the fort. Such a Divine King Realm powerhouse is already a peak strongman in the Central Continent. Typically, those reaching the Divine King Realm are thousand-year-old monsters, often in secluded cultivation."
"The Divine King Realm isn’t divided into one to seven layers. It is split into four small realms: Initial Stage, Middle Stage, Later Stage, and Peak. Once reaching the Divine King Realm, crossing one small realm is extremely difficult, with many people unable to cross even in a hundred or thousand years."
After hearing Qin Zhou’s explanation of the Divine King Realm, Ye Chenfeng silently nodded. Now that the Divine King Realm ghost cultivators have appeared in the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin, he couldn’t afford to waste time; he must quickly find the Land of Imprisonment.
Ye Chenfeng sensed the doors and windows around him, finally fixing his gaze on the right window, feeling there were the fewest ghost cultivators outside it. He must seize this opportunity to leave the house.
Ye Chenfeng said, "I need to leave now. We cannot sit here and wait for death. If things go smoothly, I can ensure you all survive. Wait here for my news."
Xue Wanqing directly grabbed Ye Chenfeng’s arm and said, "I want to go with you."
Ye Chenfeng shook his head, saying, "I have a way to make ghost cultivators temporarily ignore me. If you follow me out, it will only worsen the situation. Now, staying here and waiting for me is the best support you can offer."
Seeing Ye Chenfeng’s firm stance, Xue Wanqing bit her lip and finally released his arm.
All the others, including Zhao Bo, who intended to speak, chose silence. They knew Ye Chenfeng had made up his mind. Moreover, if he truly had a way to make ghost cultivators ignore him, following him would only be a burden.
Ye Chenfeng reached the right window, reopened the healing wound on his palm, activating the Divine Blood Art within his body. His palms swiftly formed seals in the air, quickly creating a complex golden imprint.
This golden imprint floated in the air, and Ye Chenfeng attempted to connect his Spiritual Energy with the imprint.
He then opened the right window. Once opened, the Ghost Suppression Seal on the window would lose its effect.
Without hesitation, Ye Chenfeng slipped through the window, closing it behind him.
Once the window shut, Ye Chenfeng connected to the floating golden imprint inside the house via a small gap through the window. The connection with his Spiritual Energy caused the imprint to rapidly affix itself to the window, replenishing the lost Ghost Suppression Seal.
Outside the window, the kneeling ghost cultivators had risen upon smelling the blood and flesh scent. As they were about to rush towards Ye Chenfeng, he quickly ran the Demon Heaven Art, using the dense demonic qi to mask his blood and flesh scent.
With the scent gone, the ghost cultivators calmed down again. After all, they lacked consciousness, attacking purely based on the scent of blood and flesh.
Seeing the ghost cultivators calm down, Ye Chenfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief. These ghost cultivators were Spirit God Realm and Earth God Realm; his current strength was barely enough for them to fill their teeth gaps!
Wrapped in dense demonic qi, Ye Chenfeng began searching quickly within the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin.
Inside the house.
Qin Zhou, Xue Wanqing, and the others, realizing Ye Chenfeng truly remained unscathed by the ghost cultivators, felt slightly relieved. Nonetheless, Xue Wanqing’s beautiful brows remained deeply furrowed, her cold face filled with endless worry.
Zhao Bo said, "Alas, Chenfeng is desperately fighting for us, yet we stand here powerless. I can see even that ability to make ghost cultivators ignore him has a time limit. This old man owes Chenfeng many lives."
Li Xinwen from Qingyue Sect, the only one accompanying them to the Central Continent, stared intently at the window through which Ye Chenfeng had left, clenching his fist tightly, without uttering a word. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Ling Jiang, Sect Master of Tian Feng Sect, also said, "In the future, Brother Ye will be our Tian Feng Sect’s benefactor. If we survive, Tian Feng Sect will go through fire and water for him."
Ling Wushuang murmured, "Saved me once in the tomb, now saving me again. If I survive, my life belongs to you, but I still won’t give up challenging you."
Qin Zhou also shook his head at the window, thinking, "In the ancient tomb, Brother Ye saved my life. If we survive, I will owe him another life. Now I’ve left Flame Heaven Valley, not to mention my Sea of Consciousness has Young Brother Ye’s Divine Sense imprint."
"If we truly survive leaving the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin, I, Qin Zhou, am willing to wholeheartedly acknowledge Brother Ye as my master. For now, let’s leave everything to fate."
The entire Ancient City of Heavenly Origin was filled with dense darkness.
Quickly roaming the streets, Ye Chenfeng attentively sensed every movement within the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin.
Informed by Old Bai and Old Hei, he must avoid places near Divine King Realm ghost cultivators, fearing he couldn’t fully hide his blood and flesh scent before them.
Of course, if Ye Chenfeng’s dantian contained a sufficiently powerful Heaven and Earth Flame, the Green Flame could effectively combat the ghost cultivators. However, the current power of Green Flame was too weak, likely unable to deal with even Spirit God Realm ghost cultivators!
For Ye Chenfeng, it’s now a race against time.
His figure meticulously probed the ancient city.
As time ticked away second by second.
At last, Ye Chenfeng sensed a unique aura in the northern part of the ancient city, where Old Bai and Old Hei deemed the Land of Imprisonment might be located.
However.
As Ye Chenfeng approached quickly.
The half-hour limit expired.
While the demonic qi still masked Ye Chenfeng’s blood and flesh scent, it wasn’t concealed enough to remain undetected by ghost cultivators.
The nearby ghost cultivators, drawn by traces of the scent, rapidly gathered towards Ye Chenfeng.
Witnessing ghost cultivators of Spirit God Realm, Earth God Realm, and even Heavenly God Realm converge from all directions, Ye Chenfeng desperately sped northward. If surrounded by them, even with Old Bai and Old Hei’s help, his life would be at stake.
