Chapter 111: Right to Use the Training Realm

Long Yue and the others, who hadn’t left the apartment where Ye Feng and the rest were having lunch, heard that Mu Rong was a disciple of the Emei Sect and warmly invited her in. They gathered around her, asking various questions.
Zhenzhu, who had spoken little these past days, also became curious and joined in. She wanted to know what kind of place her mother had lived in before and to hear about the people and stories around her.
Ye Feng, on the other hand, pulled Long Tian aside.
“Brother Long, I might have to leave for a while these days…” Ye Feng’s gaze still held a hint of confusion.
Long Tian remained silent for a long time without asking anything, only nodding. “Go then…”
Though not entirely sure, Long Tian could roughly guess the reason for Ye Feng’s state. Kong Xu’s words had indeed been hurtful, but they were also true. With Ye Feng’s current strength, fighting at the Yuan Ying stage was quite challenging. Although he had countless tools at his disposal, if a Yuan Ying-level expert saw through his fighting style, he would be killed. His mission this time was likely to find a way to become stronger.
Ye Feng was well aware that if his enemy was someone like Long Tian, who understood his fighting style, he could be killed instantly before he even had time to use his tools. He urgently needed a way to become strong enough to confront Yuan Ying-level experts head-on!
“When will you return?” Long Tian couldn’t help but ask.
A bitter smile appeared on Ye Feng’s lips. “I don’t know… I’ll return the day I’m strong enough!”
……
Upon entering the Void Realm, Ye Feng didn’t ask Ai De this time. He simply said two words: “Become stronger!”
The shelves immediately changed. With just that simple keyword, a large number of items appeared. It was true that there were many items within the range of 100,000 domain values.
Ye Feng glanced around and saw mostly medicinal pills and some weapons. He frowned slightly.
“I need a place with abundant spiritual energy for cultivation, so that my strength can truly improve in the shortest time possible, rather than just increasing the energy in my body.” Ye Feng looked up at the sky and shouted to the Void Realm, “I don’t need medicinal pills, nor weapons!”
“Insufficient permissions! Unable to search for this item!” Such a message appeared before Ye Feng’s eyes.

Ye Feng silently lowered his head. After a long while, he raised it again and said, “Can it be rented? I know it can’t be searched for or purchased, but one can pay the corresponding domain value to rent it! This isn’t a consumable item; I just need the right to use it, not ownership. Just like I have the right to use yours—how about that?”
Hearing this, Ed, who had previously ignored Ye Feng, finally turned his head to look at him, a look of approval in his eyes.
After a long silence, the Virtual Realm finally responded.
“Ultimate item—Refining Realm. For sale: the right to use the first layer!”
The price varies depending on the time ratio:
1:1 with external time: 1 point of second-tier domain value consumed per day;
10:1 with external time: 10 points of domain value consumed per day;
100:1 with external time: 100 points of domain value consumed per day;
1000:1 with external time: 1000 points of domain value consumed per day.
A ratio of 1000:1 means that for every day outside, a thousand days pass inside the Refining Realm…
“1000:1? That means almost three years inside for every day outside,” Ye Feng said, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
“I want to know if there’s an environment in the Refining Realm suitable for my training—like the location, weather, temperature, surrounding conditions…” Ye Feng raised his question.
At that moment, a small book appeared in the void and slowly floated toward Ye Feng.
Ye Feng knew it was the user manual for the Refining Realm. He read it word for word, spending several minutes carefully going through it. The more he read, the more excited he became.
“No wonder it’s called an ultimate item. It’s even more terrifying than ultimate items. One can choose various enemies according to the user’s needs. It’s completely like a game where you fight monsters to level up…” After reading the manual, Ye Feng didn’t hesitate to choose the 1000:1 time ratio.
“Let’s buy one day first to see how it works!” With a slight smile, as soon as he spoke, a dialog box appeared in front of Ye Feng:
“Purchase of usage rights successful!”
At a ratio of 1000:1 with external time, 1000 points of domain value are consumed per day. For one day, 1000 points of second-tier domain value are deducted.
One usage right for the first layer has been used; two remain!
Maximum usage time: 365,000 days. 1000 days have been used; 364,000 days remain!
“Are there limits on the number of usage rights? And a maximum usage time limit too?” Ye Feng stared at the dialog box in front of him, eyes wide.

At that moment, Ed’s voice came through faintly, “What you’ve purchased is only the right to use it, not ownership. So its functions will be limited—this isn’t mentioned in the manual. There are two restrictions on selling ownership in the Purgatory: one is that ownership can only be sold three times, after which it can no longer be used. The other restriction is that the maximum usage time for the first layer of the Training Domain is only 1,000 years within the Purgatory. If you choose the 1000:1 ratio, it corresponds to one year in the outside world. Beyond that time, the Training Domain can no longer be used!”
“Only three times? Is this limit permanent? Or is it only for the first layer?” Ye Feng’s heart sank. If he could only use it three times in total, then he had really wasted his chance this time.
“This limit applies only to the first layer. You’ll still have three chances to use the second layer, but the time limit will change slightly,” Ed said nonchalantly, obviously knowing what Ye Feng was thinking.
“The Training Domain is a very special item. Many powerful people who use the Virtual Realm don’t even know it exists. Since you discovered it so early, it can be said you have some strength. I can take back my earlier claim that you’re just lucky and useless, but that doesn’t mean I think you’re the most suitable candidate…” Ed left those words hanging in a somewhat arrogant tone before walking over to the shelf.
“Ugh, so arrogant…” Ye Feng was speechless about Ed’s attitude.
“As the second person to purchase the right to use it, you receive a reward of 10,000 points in Domain Value of the second level.”
Another line of text appeared before Ye Feng’s eyes. He saw his Domain Value had changed: 32,574 points in the second-level Domain Value.
“What does this mean?” Ye Feng was confused.
“It means exactly what it says. The Virtual Realm is constantly evolving. Every time someone develops a new way to use it, they receive a reward. The second person to use that method also gets a corresponding reward. Each new method only appears on the shelf after two people have used it. In other words, starting now, products selling the right to use will appear on the shelf,” Ed replied while searching through something on the shelf.
“What kind of reward will I get if I develop a new method?” Ye Feng pressed further.
“The rewards vary depending on the method. It depends on how much impact the Virtual Realm believes that method will have on its future use,” Ed said, picking up a book and starting to flip through it.

“Well, I won’t chat with you anymore. I’m going to the Training Realm to train!” Ye Feng said, opening the door to the Virtual Realm and stepping out firmly.
Eid slightly lowered the book that was blocking his view, watching as Ye Feng left…
