Under Zhang Xiaoling's nurturing, Ye Feng, whose soul had been reduced to a mere wisp, recovered at a visible speed.
However, after reviving Ye Feng's soul, Zhang Xiaoling did not stop there. Instead, he tossed out a large amount of materials from his spatial ring and refined a body for Ye Feng on the spot.
Seeing Zhang Xiaoling's skillful techniques, Ye You couldn't help but marvel, "This Zhang Xiaoling can casually refine a body, and reviving Ye Feng, who possessed Saint cultivation, was so effortless. He doesn't seem restricted by the Heavenly Dao at all..."
"Brother, compared to him, who is stronger?"
Ye Ling shook his head, "I've only met him a few times and don't know him well. I can't determine who is stronger."
"However, one thing is certain: Zhang Xiaoling is definitely not a native of Earth."
Given Earth's environment, even ancient demon gods like Chi You, who had lived since the primordial era, had their cultivation stalled before reaching the Emperor realm and couldn't surpass Earth's limits.
But based on Zhang Xiaoling's displayed strength, his cultivation was at least at the Supreme level. As for his peak limit, Ye Ling couldn't judge as he hadn't fought him.
Hearing Ye Ling's words, Ye You couldn't help but mutter, "He's so strong, what does he want by reviving Ye Feng?"
"Who knows?" Ye Ling said indifferently, manipulating time to fast-forward to the moment Zhang Xiaoling had fully revived Ye Feng.
Ye Feng lay on the altar and slowly opened his eyes. He happened to see Zhang Xiaoling by his side. As if seeing an unfathomable being, he quickly got up and knelt to pay respects to Zhang Xiaoling, "Ye Feng pays respects to the Venerable Master!"
"Venerable Master?" Seeing Ye Feng's action, Ye You's confusion deepened.
Ye Ling explained, "Little You, you might not know, but Zhang Xiaoling is the First Venerable Master of the Hongchen Pavilion. Theoretically, he should be the owner of the Hongchen Pavilion."
"Zhang Xiaoling is the owner of the Hongchen Pavilion?"
Hearing Ye Ling's words, Ye You's heart was stirred by immense waves, filled with disbelief.
For the past hundred years, the entire world had lived under the shadow of the Hongchen Pavilion. Major powers were subservient to the Hongchen Pavilion; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say the Hongchen Pavilion actually ruled the world!
And who the First Venerable Master of the Hongchen Pavilion was... remained a mystery forever.
Ye You never expected to see the Venerable Master of the Hongchen Pavilion here!
Ye You recovered and asked again, "Since Zhang Xiaoling is so strong, why didn't he intervene when the Hongchen Pavilion was destroyed before?"
"With Zhang Xiaoling's strength, he shouldn't fear even the Shadow Hall in the Immortal Realm, right?"
Ye Ling shook his head, "Although he is the Venerable Master, he never interfered with the affairs of the Hongchen Pavilion. It's likely he never cared about the Hongchen Pavilion's survival from beginning to end."
"Good heavens..." Ye You clicked his tongue, finding it somewhat unbelievable.
The Hongchen Pavilion, as a top force that dominated the globe, could easily change the entire world with a little attention from its leader. The course of Earth's history itself could undergo earth-shattering changes with just a word from the leader!
Someone could just discard such supreme power at will?
While Ye Ling and Ye You were discussing Zhang Xiaoling, Zhang Xiaoling in the replicated spacetime looked indifferently at Ye Feng kneeling before him and said, "Do you still remember that you were the chosen one?"
Hearing Zhang Xiaoling's words, Ye Feng trembled and quickly replied, "S-sorry... Xuan Xiao's strength was too great, and my mind was momentarily clouded, resulting in..."
Zhang Xiaoling interrupted Ye Feng, "It's fine... Now that the ultimate power within you has been taken, there's no point in saying anything."
With that, Zhang Xiaoling produced a piece of parchment in his palm and handed it to Ye Feng, "This is a recommendation letter to join Void. From now on, you are no longer the Venerable Master of the Hongchen Pavilion, but a member of the organization Void."
"The Shadow Hall has taken away your power. You need to reclaim it yourself. Void is a secret organization formed by the Primordial Saints. If you utilize it well, dealing with the Shadow Hall won't be difficult."
Ye Feng solemnly accepted the parchment and bowed deeply to Zhang Xiaoling, "I will not disappoint the Venerable Master this time!"
Zhang Xiaoling waved his hand, "Don't call me Venerable Master anymore. If you don't reclaim your power before the Shadow Hall sacrifices it to an extraterrestrial powerhouse, then you have no reason to exist."
"At that time, I will personally erase you."
Ye Feng trembled, a flicker of fear in his eyes, "I-I understand."
"Remember... this is your last chance." Zhang Xiaoling looked deeply at Ye Feng, and with a gust of wind, his figure dissipated.
Ye Feng bowed deeply towards where Zhang Xiaoling had left, "Farewell, Venerable Master!"
After performing the three kowtows and nine bows, Ye Feng slowly stood up, took out the recommendation letter, ascended into the air, and fled in a certain direction.
Ye You watched Ye Feng's actions throughout. As Ye Feng departed, she couldn't help but murmur, "I never expected such a formidable figure to be so subservient when facing Zhang Xiaoling."
Ye You could clearly see the reverence and fear in Ye Feng's eyes, which were genuine and not at all concealed.
Ye Feng truly feared Zhang Xiaoling!
Ye Ling calmly watched in the direction Ye Feng had left, his eyes growing deeper as he pondered something.
Seeing that the matter here was settled, Xu Xiaoqing asked Ye Ling, "Senior, what should we do next?"
Hearing Xu Xiaoqing's voice, Ye Ling slowly came back to his senses, looked up at the sky, and murmured, "There is one more thing I need to know."
Before this, Ye Ling had not held much hope for the Earth spacetime replicated by the Law of Time.
After all, everything presented here was a replication and playback of past events by the Law of Time.
If someone on Earth had strength or a level exceeding the Law of Time, logically, the Law of Time would not be able to record all the events that had occurred.
However, after Ye Ling mastered the Law of Time, he vaguely sensed that the foundation of this replicated spacetime was not the Law of Time, but the more advanced Dao of Spacetime.
Since the Dao of Spacetime was above the Law of Time, it meant that this replicated spacetime could also replicate the Heavenly Dao!
Now, Ye Ling desperately wanted to know who had seized the opportunity to erase the consciousness of the Heavenly Dao when he encountered Chu.
With this thought in mind, Ye Ling no longer hesitated and began to manipulate the timeline.
The surrounding scenes rapidly changed, and Ye Ling and the others soon left the Immortal Realm and arrived in a world of pure white.
A sphere of light, emitting a soft yet powerful radiance, floated in the center of the world.
Ye Ling looked at the white sphere of light before him and his lips curved slightly, "As expected, it's possible!"
The white sphere of light was the Heavenly Dao Origin, containing infinite power!
And the consciousness of the Heavenly Dao was hidden within the sphere of light!
