Ye Feng shook his head: "Guardian Liu, I just said that if you become my follower, I can help you enter the Asking Realm. Do you think I’m joking? Look at what this is..."

As soon as his words fell, a flash of light appeared in Ye Feng’s hand, and then two medicine boxes appeared in Ye Feng’s hand. Ye Feng opened the boxes simultaneously, and instantly, two beams of light enveloped the entire room, suffused with an extremely intense fragrance of medicinal pills.

Once inhaled, people felt refreshed, as if the speed of True Essence circulation had accelerated.

Seeing the pill patterns on those two pills, Guardian Liu was incredibly surprised: "Holy Pill and top-grade Dao Pill?"

Ye Feng smiled slightly: "That’s right, this is a lower-grade Holy Pill, the Nourishing Yuan Saint Pill. You should know the Nourishing Yuan Pill, which consolidates and nourishes the foundation. This is a Holy Pill capable of repairing your damaged foundation. Although the other is only of medium-grade Dao Pill level, its value is comparable to a top-grade Dao Pill. The Asking Pill can help a practitioner at the Great Perfection of Entering Dao to break through to the Asking Realm. Aren’t these two pills exactly what you need now, Guardian Liu?"

Upon hearing Ye Feng’s words, Guardian Liu trembled all over. He felt as if he were dreaming, knowing these were Holy Pill and Asking Pill, which are rare on the Spirit Martial Continent.

Because, on the entire Spirit Martial Continent, the highest level an Alchemy Master reaches is only top-grade Dao Level.

And this Alchemy Master is in the Holy Land, while a lower-grade Dao Level Alchemy Master is top-notch in the Five Continents of Spirit Martial and cannot produce Asking Pills. As for Holy Pills, they are legendary, exceptionally rare, even rarer than top-grade or even perfect-grade Holy Artifacts.

Liu Huayuan’s despair stemmed from knowing that his life’s limit was the Great Perfection of Entering Dao, as his foundation required a Holy Pill for repair, yet there were almost no Holy Pills on the Spirit Martial Continent.

That’s why he gave up, but now, hope appeared again in his eyes, making him incredibly excited.

These two pills were left for Ye Feng by his father in the Sword Palace. The Asking Pill was already very scarce, with only three pieces, which Ye Feng didn’t need. With the Heaven Slaying Sword and his own Destruction Dao Body, comprehending the Dao Principles posed no difficulty for Ye Feng, so he didn’t require them.

Liu Huayuan looked at the two pills in Ye Feng’s hand, unsure of what to say, as Ye Feng directly handed him the pills: "Guardian Liu, take these pills, consume the Nourishing Yuan Saint Pill, and within two months you can recover. Then take the Asking Pill, and in a year’s time, you can reach the early stage of the Asking Realm, and then another elder will join the Daoist School!"

Liu Huayuan was utterly stunned, never imagining such a thing would happen.

His eagerness for Ye Feng to become his disciple was because his foundation was damaged, shortening his lifespan to about a hundred years at most.

To live longer, a breakthrough was necessary, along with repairing his foundation. Liu Huayuan had lost hope and wanted to pass on his legacy. However, if he could break through to the Asking Realm, living another two thousand years would not be a problem.

This shocked Liu Huayuan; standing before Ye Feng, he had lost his usual aloof and majestic demeanor, trembling all over, his body stiff, unsure of what to say.

Ye Feng said calmly: "Guardian Liu, don’t you want the pills? You should need them now..."

Liu Huayuan suddenly stood up and loudly declared: "I, Liu Huayuan, hereby swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao. I wish to follow Ye Feng for life, becoming his follower, and never betray him. If I break this vow, I willingly accept the Heavenly Dao Thunder Punishment, my body and spirit annihilated with no chance of survival!"

As soon as his words fell, the air above the Daoist School hummed with the Heavenly Dao’s roar, like rolling thunder.

Everyone in the Daoist School looked at the void with confusion: "Who else has sworn an oath to the Heavenly Dao?"

The Spirit Martial Continent differs entirely from Earth; Earth’s level is too low, its Dao is incomplete, with no will of the Heavenly Dao.

On Earth, an oath does bring some constraint, but not much. However, the Spirit Martial Continent’s Heavenly Dao has a complete will, and once an oath to the Heavenly Dao is made, it enforces an absolute constraint.

Unless one’s strength exceeds the Heavenly Dao, they must adhere to the oath.

Ye Feng nodded slightly, without any emotional fluctuation. In his view, this was expected. Although Ye Feng is only at True God’s Great Perfection, Liu Huayuan becoming Ye Feng’s follower is considered Liu Huayuan’s good fortune.

"Take the pills!" Ye Feng said calmly, with Liu Huayuan excitedly nodding and putting the pills away.

"I will leave for now; I hope you quickly repair your foundation and break through to the Asking Realm!" said Ye Feng.

"Yes!" Liu Huayuan nodded excitedly, feeling as if he were dreaming. He initially thought today’s meeting with Ye Feng was Ye Feng’s fortune, but unexpectedly, it became his own fortune.

Ye Feng left Liu Huayuan’s courtyard, with Zhang Meng and others surrounding him: "Ye Feng, are you okay..."

Ye Feng shook his head: "It’s nothing. Guardian Liu just told me that Wang Cong brought trouble upon himself, and the elder didn’t blame me. He advised me to keep cultivating. Let’s go back..."

The crowd was thrilled and relieved, knowing there was no problem, so they returned to cultivation. Within a blink of an eye, ten days passed, bringing Ye Feng’s time in the Punishment Hall to an end. During these ten days, Ye Feng continuously absorbed lower-grade Dao Crystals for cultivation, absorbing a total of ten thousand lower-grade Dao Crystals, elevating his cultivation directly to the level of Heavenly Illusion True God. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Ye Feng sighed inwardly, his Destruction Dao Body cultivated top-level Slaughter Heaven Battle Method, consuming vast resources. Generally, an Infinite True God breaks through to the early Entering Dao realm with one thousand lower-grade Dao Crystals.

However, Ye Feng needed ten thousand lower-grade Dao Crystals to break from Mixed Element True God to Heavenly Illusion True God. To break further to Infinite True God, it’s estimated that it would require one hundred thousand lower-grade Dao Crystals.
