Chapter 1607: A Deed That Benefits a Thousand Generations

Ye Yuan's cultivation level soared until it could no longer rise, only then did he stop devouring spiritual energy.

In the end, his cultivation reached the peak of the Great Perfection of the Return to Void stage, just one step away from the Divine Lord realm.

Seeing that Ye Yuan had finally stopped breaking through, the others breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh my god, it's finally stopped! I thought he was going to keep breaking through like this forever!"

"Elder Ye is truly monstrous. This is the first time I've heard of someone breaking through like this in the Return to Void Divine Realm!"

"What do you know? This is what they call accumulating over time! With his talent, how could he have not broken through for a hundred years? He accumulated for a century to achieve this feat today!"

"That's true, but breaking through from the middle stage of Return to Void to the peak of the Great Perfection in a hundred years is still incredibly heaven-defying."

...

The spiritual energy of the Sky Eagle Imperial City finally calmed down, and the spirit-gathering formation slowly began to restore the inner city's spiritual energy.

These days, Ye Yuan had devoured an unknown amount of spiritual energy, almost to the point where the spirit-gathering formation could not keep up with his consumption.

His breakthrough this time was truly like eating a fat man in one go. Even the breakthroughs of Divine Lord realm experts could not match his speed of absorbing spiritual energy.

"Hahaha, congratulations, Elder Ye, on attaining the Dao!"

"Elder Ye is truly a peerless genius, comprehending the Law of Space in just a hundred years!"

"Congratulations, Elder Ye!"

...

A group of elders came forward to congratulate Ye Yuan.

They knew that with his powerful return this time, his momentum for rising was unstoppable.

Moreover, he had brought back a great figure.

They had clearly heard that Zheng Qi, the Grand Elder of the Martial Tower, had called that old man 'Grandmaster'!

At that moment, Zheng Qi also approached with Leng Yu, and directly cupped his hands to Ye Yuan, saying, "Elder Ye, I am extremely grateful that you have brought back Grandmaster Leng Yu, who had been missing for over a hundred thousand years!"

Ye Yuan raised an eyebrow, showing a hint of surprise, and said in astonishment, "Brother Leng... uh, Senior Leng is actually the Grand Elder's grandmaster?"

As soon as he spoke, Ye Yuan realized something was wrong.

The Grand Elder of the Martial Tower called Leng Yu grandmaster, and he called Leng Yu brother—wasn't that clearly taking advantage of everyone?

It was fine in the Space Inheritance, but back in the imperial city, knowing Leng Yu's seniority, he naturally could not address him casually.

Although Ye Yuan had his own pride, it did not mean he was ignorant of worldly affairs.

If he kept calling him that, although others would not say anything out of respect for Leng Yu, they would certainly be displeased.

After all, he was only a Return to Void realm martial artist.

Ye Yuan was not afraid of making enemies, but provoking enemies unnecessarily was obviously not wise.

Before Ye Yuan could say anything, Leng Yu said nonchalantly, "Kid, you don't need to be polite with me. Let's each keep our own terms! From now on, you can still call me Brother Leng. As for others, let them be as they are. I've been trapped for over a hundred thousand years, why would I care about such trivial formalities? Hmm, Zheng Qi is the disciple of my most proud student. I never expected that after over a hundred thousand years, he would become the Grand Elder of the Martial Tower."

Leng Yu didn't care, but Zheng Qi and the other elders looked a bit embarrassed.

Since you, senior, have said so, what else can we say?

Ye Yuan was not one to be awkward either, and he smiled, saying, "It seems that Brother Leng's lineage is indeed full of extraordinary talents! Although I haven't interacted much with the Grand Elder, I've long heard that he is unmatched in martial prowess and the pillar of the Sky Eagle Imperial City!"

Leng Yu heard this and said angrily, "Let me tell you a joke, brother! Look at this: I, the grandmaster, am only at the third level of the Divine Lord realm, while this grand-disciple is already at the ninth level of the Divine Lord realm!"

Every time Leng Yu spoke, Zheng Qi's face grew more embarrassed.

But this phenomenon was indeed quite speechless.

It wasn't that there had never been cases of the student surpassing the master, but Leng Yu's talent back then had stunned the entire imperial city.

Yet, who could have predicted the vicissitudes of life? After a hundred and thirty thousand years, he had only reached the third level of the Divine Lord realm.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Leng, don't be like this. With your current realm and insights, breaking through to the ninth level of the Divine Lord realm is only a matter of time. When the old man loses a horse, who knows if it might be a blessing? Perhaps you can accumulate over time and break through to the Divine God realm!"

Leng Yu chuckled and said, "That's true! If I hadn't been trapped in the Space Inheritance back then, I might have broken through the shackles and charged toward the Divine God realm by now."

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Leng, you and I are fated. When I break through to the Divine Lord realm, I will help you refine pills to assist you in breaking through as soon as possible!"

Leng Yu was stunned, then remembered that Ye Yuan's identity seemed to be an elder of the Alchemy Tower, not the Martial Tower.

He was a bit curious about how Ye Yuan had become an elder of the Alchemy Tower.

Seeing Leng Yu's confusion, Zheng Qi said, "It seems Grandmaster doesn't know about Elder Ye's monstrous nature. A hundred years ago, he refined a Void Spirit Divine Grade Sun and Moon Qiankun Pill, which caused a sensation in the imperial city at the time!"

Leng Yu's pupils contracted, and he exclaimed, "Void Spirit Divine Grade! Sun and Moon Qiankun Pill! Are you kidding me?"

Zheng Qi smiled and said, "Zheng Qi would never dare to joke with Grandmaster. All the elders present witnessed this event."

Leng Yu gasped, pointing at Ye Yuan, speechless: "You kid, you're truly a monster! I was once hailed as the unparalleled genius of the Sky Eagle Imperial City throughout the ages, but compared to you, I'm nothing!"

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "It's just luck! By the way, Grand Elder, I have improved the Space Inheritance of the Martial Tower. From now on, if anyone wants to enter and comprehend the Law of Space, it won't be so dangerous. The predecessor who left the inheritance was too extreme. Although the inheritance method was very profound, it was also too perilous."

Ye Yuan didn't want to dwell on this topic, so he changed the subject.

Zheng Qi trembled all over and said in disbelief, "Elder Ye, are you serious? Please... please don't joke!"

Not only Zheng Qi, but all the elders and stewards nearby, and even the protectors farther away, were extremely excited upon hearing this news.

To say that the pie of the Law of Space was in their own home—it would be a lie to say they weren't tempted.

But this pie was poisonous!

Take one bite and die—who would dare to eat it?

Back then, including Leng Yu, hadn't they all entered the Space Inheritance for the supreme Law of Space?

And what was the result?

Except for Leng Yu, who was trapped inside, not a single one came out!

Now, Ye Yuan said he had improved the Space Inheritance—how could they not go crazy?

Ye Yuan smiled wryly and said, "Grand Elder, how would I dare to joke about such a major matter? However, after my improvement, although the Space Inheritance has become much gentler, the difficulty of comprehension has also greatly increased. With my current level of insight, I can only do this much."

Zheng Qi, however, didn't mind and said excitedly, "Elder Ye, you have truly done a deed that benefits a thousand generations for the Martial Tower!"
