Chapter 639 - 638: Preparing to Break Through
A glint appeared in Qin Feng’s eyes. A technique manual materialized in his mind, and with a point of his finger, a stream of light shot into Yu Yao’s mind.
"This is...?"
Yu Yao’s body trembled, and unconcealable shock filled her beautiful eyes. Her red lips quivered. "The Legendary Skill Qiankun Celestial Phenomenon Technique?"
Yu Yao could hardly believe it.
Qin Feng had just casually passed such a precious cultivation technique on to her.
Pressing her red lips together, a crimson gleam flickered in her eyes.
A True Inheritance!
With this True Inheritance, advancing to the Martial Arts Giant Realm, and even the Martial Arts Great Power Realm, was no longer just a dream!
Taking in Yu Yao’s expression, Qin Feng said, "It’s just one True Inheritance. No need to get so excited. As long as you serve me with all your heart, there will be no shortage of such cultivation techniques and treasures for you in the future!"
After saying this, Qin Feng gave a few instructions to Luan Xiaochuan, Xu Jie, Zhao Yuan, Chen Guang, and the others who had rushed over. Then, he grabbed Yu Yao and shot away from Heavenly Red Peak like a stream of light, heading for Yunhu City.
「Three days later.」
After a journey at lightning speed, Qin Feng appeared in the sky above Yunhu City.
"So this is Yunhu City?"
Beneath the Sea of Clouds, Yu Yao gazed at the endless stretch of buildings spanning hundreds of miles, a trace of awe flashing in her eyes.
Without a doubt, this was a megacity.
Compared to this metropolis, Mountain and River City was like a toddler just learning to walk.
She was about to become the de facto ruler of such a colossal city. The thought made the desire for power in her veins practically boil over, and for a moment, her body couldn’t help but go weak.
Her beautiful eyes narrowed.
Watching the woman who was excited to her core, a flicker passed through Qin Feng’s eyes. ’This woman was practically born for power.’
With a flash, Qin Feng enveloped Yu Yao and appeared inside the City Lord’s Mansion.
Within the City Lord’s Mansion, a demonic and enchanting youth in black robes was sitting majestically with his eyes closed. Suddenly, they snapped open.
"Ancestor!" Mo Yi quickly stood up.
Yu Yao’s beautiful eyes looked with curiosity at the youth who looked almost identical to Qin Feng.
"He is my clone," Qin Feng said lightly.
With a wave of his large sleeve, Mo Yi transformed into a stream of light and merged into Qin Feng’s body.
Just then, sensing the distinct Void Fluctuation from the City Lord’s Mansion, four streams of light shot in like meteors.
The figures of the four Guardian Elders—Bao Wen, Cui Haoming, Cui Wenxiang, and Zhong Wanwu—appeared one after another.
’Four great figures at the Sea of Reincarnation Realm?’ Yu Yao’s expression changed, but she regained her composure in the next moment.
Seeing the young man in the main hall, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"City Lord!"
"Rise. There’s no need for formalities," Qin Feng said with a wave of his hand.
"City Lord, this young lady is?"
The four men guessed that Yu Yao must be some kind of beloved concubine to their City Lord.
Qin Feng said, "She is the future chief steward of our Qin Family. If you run into trouble in the future, you can consult with her first."
’Chief steward?’ The four of them understood. ’This woman is undoubtedly one of the future wives of the Patriarch!’
Yu Yao blushed slightly. Being quick-witted, how could she not understand the expressions on the faces of Bao Wen, Cui Haoming, Cui Wenxiang, and Zhong Wanwu?
However, if she could become a lady of the Qin Family, she wouldn’t refuse.
With Qin Feng’s current status, he was definitely worthy of her!
Qin Feng didn’t bother to explain. He just waved his hand dismissively while processing the streams of information being transmitted from Mo Yi in his mind.
He was catching up on everything that had happened during his absence.
Nothing major had occurred in Yunhu City. Four of the Five Great Families had fallen, and the remaining Li Family had adopted an aloof attitude, putting the Qin Family first in all matters.
The Twelve Aristocratic Families and the various guild factions were also behaving themselves.
The Qin Family was thriving.
But then, one piece of information caught Qin Feng’s attention.
"A series of young women have gone missing in Tide Sea City. The missing are all Xuanyin Women, born in a yin year, yin month, and yin hour, or Yang Maidens, born in a yang year, yang month, and yang hour!"
This news reminded Qin Feng of that lecher from the Joy Sect who had ambushed the Jin Family.
Qin Feng was knowledgeable about both ancient and modern times and knew many secrets.
Some ancient beings, having slumbered for too long, required special rituals to awaken.
For example, some Great Powers who cultivated the Yin Yang Law needed a blood sacrifice of virgin boys and girls, whose bodies contained pure yin and yang auras, to awaken.
SHUFFLE! SHUFFLE!
Just then, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the hall. Qin Qingyun, Qin Qinghong, Qin Qingyue, Qin Yumei, and others had arrived.
The three Elders were beaming, their prestige seemingly growing by the day. When they saw Qin Feng, especially the black Star God Robe he was wearing, their expressions jolted before turning to elation.
"Patriarch, you’ve completed the True Inheritance Ceremony and advanced to True Inheritance?"
Qin Feng nodded. "That’s right. I have advanced to True Inheritance. I’ve returned to Yunhu City for now, but in two months, I must head to the Barbaric Battlefield to assume my post."
"Congratulations, Patriarch! Our sincerest congratulations!"
The three Elders were overjoyed, beaming as if they themselves had advanced to True Inheritance.
With Qin Feng’s advancement to True Inheritance, the status of everyone in the Qin Family would naturally rise with the tide.
If word of this got back to Mountain and River City, their own statuses would rise yet again. Even the Qin Family’s old ancestor would have to show them more respect.
Qin Qingyun suddenly said, "Patriarch, your advancement to True Inheritance is the greatest joyous occasion for Yunhu City! We should hold a grand banquet for a city-wide celebration! This is the perfect opportunity to let the rulers of the surrounding territories see the might of our Yunhu City!"
Qin Feng said, "You can handle that matter. I won’t be staying in Yunhu City for long."
For Qin Feng, the most important thing right now was to adjust his state, perform the Heaven and Earth Creation, and break through to the Nirvana Realm.
Everything else was a minor detail.
"Yu Yao, from now on, you will enter the City Lord’s Mansion to handle administrative affairs. Elders, starting today, Yu Yao is the Civil Affairs Official of the City Lord’s Mansion. Handle all general matters through her. If there is something she truly cannot resolve, then you may report it to me."
"Yu Yao!"
The expressions of the Qin Family members changed. They had, of course, heard the name Yu Yao. Seeing the current situation, it seemed this favored daughter of the Yu Family had been taken into the Patriarch’s fold.
Qin Yumei looked Yu Yao up and down. Yu Yao could clearly feel that this favored daughter of the Qin Family seemed to have an almost natural hostility towards her.
This hostility stemmed from Qin Feng, who stood beside her.
’A secret crush?’ A bewitching smile touched Yu Yao’s red lips. ’It seems this is my first bit of trouble since arriving in Yunhu City.’
Qin Feng turned and disappeared into a secret chamber within the City Lord’s Mansion, releasing Mo Yi once again.
Inside the secret chamber, Qin Feng sat cross-legged. He had now fully comprehended eighteen types of Void Profound Mysteries. Condensing the Void Origin, Fusion Dao, Harmonization, and even proving his Dao would not be difficult for him.
Perhaps the only trouble would be opening his Inner Heaven and Earth.
’The Heaven and Earth Backlash!’
When an ordinary Sea of Reincarnation Realm expert attempted Heaven and Earth Creation, their chances of survival were slim to none, precisely because of this backlash.
However, Qin Feng was quite confident.
With his current strength, he was far beyond what an ordinary big shot at the Sea of Reincarnation Realm could compare to.
What worried Qin Feng was that after breaking through to the Nirvana Realm, his foundation might be so profound that he would advance straight to a Martial Dao Great Power, triggering a great worldly calamity...
