Ye Feng looked at Qingshan and Zimo and said, "You may rise now..." Qingshan and Zimo were visibly tense, thinking Ye Feng would reject them, but both resolutely declared, "Brother Ye Feng, if you don’t accept us, we won’t stand up. We’ll only rise once you agree to let us become your followers!"

Ye Feng nodded, "Alright, you may rise..." Upon hearing Ye Feng’s agreement, both Qingshan and Zimo were thrilled.

At that moment, Qingshan and Zimo immediately swore an oath to the Heavenly Dao, "We swear to the Heavenly Dao that from this moment onward, we will follow Ye Feng, always loyal and never betray him. Should we break this vow, we will perish without reincarnation!"

"Boom~~" A thunderous sound erupted from the mysterious Heavenly Dao, akin to the roar of thunder.

Ye Feng then waved his arm, and the storage rings of the people he had just killed appeared before the two.

"Consider this your greeting gift for becoming my followers..." Ye Feng said calmly.

Qingshan and Zimo were elated, without pretense, they accepted the rings directly, "Thank you, Brother Ye Feng!"

The storage rings didn’t contain Daoist Crystals, pills, or the like, but they did hold numerous techniques, martial skills, and Dao Artifacts, which were of little value to Ye Feng but a significant fortune to Qingshan and Zimo.

"Alright, let’s move!" With those words, Ye Feng led Qingshan and Zimo into the third layer of the Heavenly Prison Maze, where the prisoners were already aware of Ye Feng’s presence and dared not act recklessly.

The scene they witnessed was enough; these people, mostly at or below the pinnacle of the True God Realm, dared not provoke Ye Feng, who single-handedly eliminated thirty-two True God Great Perfection experts, including two Infinite True God Realm powerhouses.

For those who hadn’t even reached the Great Perfection, challenging Ye Feng was out of the question.

Upon entering the third layer of the Heavenly Prison Maze, Ye Feng faced no obstacles as before, easily navigating through to the exit.

Once Ye Feng and his followers exited the maze, they saw Daoist Minghuo waiting outside, his eyes filled with shock upon seeing Ye Feng.

"Ye Feng? Did you use a Teleportation Talisman?" Daoist Minghuo asked in disbelief.

Ye Feng took out his Teleportation Talisman and shook his head, "No, I exited through the third layer."

Daoist Minghuo was even more shocked, "Impossible! How could you exit within half a day?"

Ye Feng replied calmly, "I am a Grandmaster of Formations; the Heavenly Prison Maze couldn’t trap me..."

Daoist Minghuo was astounded, "You’re a Grandmaster of Formations!" His expression was one of disbelief. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Indeed!" Ye Feng nodded, then took out his crafted Formation Flag, sending it out. Instantly, Ye Feng drew formation runes, intertwined to form a powerful Sword Array! Sword Qi condensed into a sharp Sword Qi, emitting dazzling multicolored light, top-tier Divine Formation!

Daoist Minghuo was immensely surprised; this formation could kill even True God Great Perfection experts!

Daoist Minghuo knew a Formation Flag, while a treasure, could only be manipulated by an Array Master, otherwise, it couldn’t easily set up an array. Many Array Masters could defeat enemies across realms using formations.

However, setting up formations was time-consuming, and enemies wouldn’t foolishly enter them to die.

Hence, Formation Flags allowed Array Masters to place formations swiftly.

Yet, Formation Flags were extremely rare, as crafting them required an Artifact Refiner to engrave the formation during crafting, requiring perfect collaboration with an Array Master, which typical Refiners couldn’t achieve.

There was another exception: if the Artifact Refiner was also an Array Master, they could craft Formation Flags easily. Ye Feng, possessing enough materials, could forge Formation Flags with ease, as he was both a Grandmaster of Formations and an Artifact Refiner.

Upon witnessing Ye Feng’s formation, Daoist Minghuo believed Ye Feng could navigate the maze effortlessly.

At this moment, Daoist Minghuo asked doubtfully, "If you’ve cleared the trial, why didn’t Daoist Qingzhu report to me?"

Upon hearing Daoist Minghuo’s words, Qingshan and Zimo grew nervous, uncertain of Ye Feng’s response.

Ye Feng replied calmly, "I killed them..." Daoist Minghuo was taken aback by Ye Feng’s words.

Qingshan and Zimo were startled, surprised by Ye Feng’s straightforwardness.

"Why! Why did you kill him?" Daoist Minghuo’s eyes showed fury.

Previously, seeing Ye Feng at True God Pinnacle, Daoist Minghuo couldn’t believe Ye Feng could kill Daoist Qingzhu.

Now, witnessing Ye Feng’s grand formation capable of killing Infinite True Gods, Minghuo didn’t doubt.

Ye Feng explained truthfully, without embellishment, recounting the incident.

"Bastards! These bastards secretly conspired with maze prisoners to kill you; this is a capital offense. You did well to kill them! Ye Feng, I won’t blame you; I’ll report to the sect elders. Rest assured, the sect won’t blame you!"

Daoist Minghuo assured, and Ye Feng nodded indifferently, unconcerned, even if Daoist Minghuo tried anything against him, Ye Feng wouldn’t fear. Soon, ten days passed, almost everyone emerged from the maze.

Those who didn’t emerge had died inside the maze; Ye Feng, Qingshan, Zimo effortlessly passed the trials and became outer court disciples of the Daoist School.
