Chapter 736: First Arrival in the Supreme Plane

Upon arriving in the supreme plane for the first time, Ye Feng indeed faced many difficulties adapting. The first was gravity—here, it was over 1,000 times stronger than that of the higher main planes. Even though Ye Feng’s physical strength had reached the peak of a third-level warrior, he still felt his body heavy and uncomfortable.

However, Ye Feng did not use any gravity-manipulation techniques to counteract this gravity, as he could clearly sense that under such conditions, his body was on the verge of breaking through the limits of a third-level warrior. His strength could potentially surge at any moment.

The second difference was the intensity and density of energy here. Ye Feng could clearly feel the energy floating in the air, so powerful that it didn’t even require him to absorb it—it simply seeped into every pore of his body.

What bothered Ye Feng the most was the complete disappearance of his previous sense of control. In many previous planes, he would ascend after reaching the peak of his cultivation, and with a mere sweep of his soul power, nothing could escape his detection. Space teleportation allowed him to go wherever he wanted. But now, in this supreme plane, Ye Feng was just a minor third-level warrior. Even at full strength, he could only match a sixth-level warrior. Against a seventh-level warrior, he had no chance at all. This gave him a sense of crisis.

“A long-absent supreme plane…” Xue Hai seemed quite nostalgic for this feeling. Although he was a warrior from another realm, he had visited the supreme plane a few times before, always sneaking in secretly.

“How’s the collection of supreme treasures progressing?” Ye Feng asked. They had already agreed earlier in the higher main planes that Xue Hai’s physical puppet would help him gather these treasures. But later, they realized that without fusing them with treasures at the peak or above level, it would be a complete waste of their supreme privileges. So Ye Feng told Xue Hai that only peak-level and ultimate-level treasures were needed.

“To be honest, gathering treasures below the peak-grade treasures isn’t difficult. But peak-grade and supreme-grade treasures are indeed hard to come by,” Xue Hai said helplessly. “So far, I’ve only collected seven peak-grade treasures and none of the supreme-grade ones. However, in the Outer Lands, I’ve obtained over twenty weapons that are comparable to peak-grade treasures, as well as two that are comparable to supreme-grade treasures. The boundary between the Outer Lands and the higher planes is called the Meteor River, a region of stars. With your current strength, you’re not even qualified to enter its outskirts. In those areas, there are very few level-6 warriors, and if any do exist, they’re those who can fight beyond their rank. It’s mainly a place for level-7 and level-8 warriors. Although you can confront level-6 warriors with your current strength, once you go there, you’ll surely be killed instantly. So, I can’t give you the items from the Outer Lands for now. I’ll have those puppets continue collecting. Let’s first get our hands on a few peak-grade treasures from this higher plane.”

“Hmm, where should we wait?” Although he was deeply discouraged by Xue Hai’s words, Ye Feng admitted it was the truth and asked.

“I’ve been to this higher plane three or four times, but each time I sneaked in and didn’t dare wander around. Besides, this plane is extremely vast, and I don’t even know where things are. Let’s first find a town nearby, get a map, and then decide. There’s a town 180,000 kilometers east from here. Let’s go take a look.”

After all, Xue Hai was a peak-level 9 warrior. With a sweep of his soul power, he could see everything at a glance. In a flash, he and Ye Feng appeared at the city gate.

Originally, Xue Hai couldn’t walk openly in this higher plane because level-10 warriors could easily identify his identity. Moreover, the range of a level-10 warrior’s soul power scan far exceeded Xue Hai’s. In other words, if he entered the detection range of a level-10 warrior but stayed outside their scanning range, he would be doomed.

But now, he no longer had such concerns. After signing a master-slave contract with Ye Feng, he took on a human form, and even Immortal couldn’t spot any flaws. This was the collateral effect of the contract, which also made Xue Hai feel somewhat pleased. In the past, whenever he came to this higher plane, he had to act sneakily like a thief. But now, he could go anywhere.

The city before them was called Moonwind City. Due to its great age, no one knew the origin of its name. Such cities in the higher plane could only be considered level-1 small towns, and rarely did warriors above level 4 visit them.

Entering the city, Ye Feng and his companion found that commerce here was not very developed. Although the people here were not strong, there was a clear emphasis on martial arts. Everywhere, they could see people practicing and competing, as well as those training alone… After much effort, they found a small stall and finally managed to buy a landmark crystal. A landmark crystal was a special type of crystal that could project a three-dimensional map in mid-air by simply inputting energy. With the landmark crystal in hand, the two continued their journey. Guided by Blood Sea, they used teleportation several times before reaching the first major city on the highest plane—Ironblood City. The guardian of this city was an eighth-level powerhouse named Ironblood. He had also participated in many battles around the Meteor River and was a highly skilled fighter in actual combat. Even Blood Sea had heard of his fame; it was said that many eighth-level warriors from other regions had died at his hands. “Let’s stay here. This city is roughly located at the center of the entire plane. Those Flesh God puppets will be here soon.” Blood Sea looked at the gates of Ironblood City with a somewhat proud smile. It was the first time he had stood so boldly at the entrance of such a major city. The two stepped into the city, where its prosperity far surpassed that of Moonwind City before. There was constant noise everywhere. However, one thing remained the same: a strong emphasis on martial arts. They found the best inn to stay in. Ye Feng wasn’t afraid to spend money; he had already killed those high-ranking plane warriors who had been hunting him in the higher main planes due to the bounty and taken their treasures, which included many crystals that served as currency in those planes. After booking a room, Ye Feng asked the waiter where he could find information about trades, then left with Blood Sea. The main place for trade information in the city was called AsktheSky Tower, which reportedly had hundreds of branches in major cities across the highest planes. From AsktheSky Tower, Ye Feng purchased a collection of major events that had occurred over the past ten thousand years, a list of upcoming events, the Chronicles of the Meteor River, and a general history of the highest planes, before leaving. Blood Sea wandered around, glanced at the metal tablets in Ye Feng’s hands, said nothing much, and left empty-handed behind Ye Feng. “Don’t you need anything?” Ye Feng couldn’t help but ask, seeing that he had nothing in his hands. “The information I need is already bought by you,” Blood Sea said, pointing to the two metal tablets in Ye Feng’s hands—the Chronicles of the Meteor River and the general history of the highest planes. “I’ll finish reading it first, and then you can take your time studying it.” Ye Feng put those metal tablets into his storage ring.

The two returned to the restaurant and set up a barrier outside the room before taking out those metal pieces. Ye Feng sent his spiritual energy inside, and the information was instantly transmitted to his sea of consciousness. In just a few breaths, Ye Feng memorized all the information. Only then did he throw those four metal pieces into the Sea of Blood…
