Chapter 561: Achieving Divine Abilities

After questioning Zi Ling, Ye Feng returned to the Martial Arts Hall and looked at his other avatars. Aside from the Space-type avatar that arrived later, the cultivation levels of the other avatars’ laws had all reached the seventh stage. The best performer was the Water-type avatar, whose Sealing Law had reached the seventh stage’s perfect form. This was because Ye Feng had only mastered one Water law—the Sealing Law. Although mastering the Sealing Law was extremely difficult, it wasn’t surprising that his progress was faster compared to the other avatars, who were cultivating three or four laws simultaneously.

The slowest was the Thunder-type avatar’s Destruction Law, which had just entered the seventh stage. The Space-type avatar was also making good progress, having reached the peak of the fifth stage and was just short of entering the sixth stage. This was because Ye Feng had only mastered one Space law—the Space Transmission Law. Yet, he could sense that the large stone contained more than one Space law. If he absorbed them all, he could master at least two or three laws.

The thought of so many laws being deeply ingrained in his soul and becoming his innate divine abilities filled Ye Feng with excitement. In his view, innate divine abilities were similar to the natural talents of Xiao Yu and Xiao Bei.

Long Tian and Jin Wen were also progressing well, having mostly reached the sixth stage. Ye Feng planned to wait until they both reached the peak of the tenth stage before giving up their spots to those who hadn’t entered the Martial Arts Hall yet. Since his avatars didn’t count toward the quota, it wouldn’t matter even if they reached the peak of the tenth stage and left the hall.

Bai Yiyi and Luo Yan were unlikely to be able to leave in the short term, as their cultivation progress was slow due to a lack of sufficient pills. Moreover, Bai Yiyi hadn’t even begun cultivating her Soul Law.

After observing everything and making an approximate estimate, Ye Feng returned to his room and resumed absorbing the Absolute Void Rock.

Four million years later, all of Ye Feng’s avatars’ law cultivation levels had reached the perfect form of the tenth stage, including the Space-type avatar Ye Kong. During these four million years, Ye Feng had only absorbed 4% of the stone’s energy and hadn’t mastered any new Space laws. Ye Kong joined Ye Feng in absorbing the stone. Although Ye Kong’s absorption speed was less than one-tenth of Ye Feng’s, it still represented progress. As for the other avatars, since they couldn’t absorb spatial energy, Ye Feng had no choice but to let them meditate like the Dark-type avatar.

By this time, both Long Tian and Jin Wen had reached the peak of the tenth level in their mastery of laws. Ye Feng was highly impressed by Jin Wen’s speed of comprehension—after all, he had practiced over a dozen laws on his own, yet his progress was comparable to Long Tian, who had only mastered four laws. His chaotic constitution must have played a significant role in this as well.

In addition to the extra spots for Long Tian and Jin Wen, Luo Yan also got an extra spot. After reaching the twelfth layer, Luo Yan remained stuck there and couldn’t make further progress. He didn’t dare take the risk of entering the thirteenth layer, so he chose to withdraw instead to look for other reasons.

Ye Feng decided to let all three of them enter the training hall for observation and practical drills. His fire and lightning avatars were also there; as they were hot-tempered and unable to meditate, Ye Feng had no choice but to let them be.

These three extra spots were taken up by Qing Wen, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Bei.

In the Absolute Martial Ark, four million years equaled forty thousand years in the Refining Realm. Besides Qing Wen and the others, Tie Niu had also reached the Saint level, but since he was behind the three, Ye Feng had to ask him to wait patiently.

In fact, people like Shi Tou in the Martial Training Hall had already started practicing laws. Yet Ye Feng still felt that too few people could enter.

After 23 million years, Zhu Zhen and the others finally all entered the Martial Training Hall. By then, Xiao Liu and Yi Fan had already become warriors beyond the Saint realm. Outside, however, only a little over twenty years had passed.

At this point, Ye Feng finally entered a deep meditation state. With no interruptions for the rest of the time, it would be the perfect opportunity for him to absorb that rock. But to his frustration, after absorbing 30% of it, he still hadn’t grasped the second spatial law. He even began to suspect that it might be due to those secret patterns.

As years passed in the Divine Realm, after more than 40 million years, Zhu Zhen and the others finally all became true warriors beyond the Saint realm, with their mastery of laws reaching the peak of the tenth level.

Another 30 million years passed. Ye Feng looked at the Absolute Void Rock, which seemed as small as dust, and shook his head with a wry smile. “Today is the last day. I’ve absorbed the entire Absolute Void Rock, but I’ve only understood one spatial transmission law… Sigh…”

Although unwilling, Ye Feng had no choice but to accept his fate. Reluctantly, after absorbing the last speck of dust, he suddenly felt a strong change within his dantian.

“What’s going on?” He immediately used his soul power to investigate.
The transparent bubble was still about the size of a fist, but it had changed from a fragile, easily punctured state to a dense, transparent spherical stone. Suddenly, the stone emitted a colorless beam of light that shot straight toward his mind sea, aiming at his soul.
Ye Feng was shocked, but there was no time to dodge, and the colorless light penetrated his soul.
After a while, Ye Feng burst into laughter. “Hahaha… So this is a divine ability…”
He never expected that by absorbing an entire Juekong Rock, his mastery of the law would instantly elevate him to a divine ability. His first divine ability turned out to be space transmission, used for escaping—which left Ye Feng both amused and frustrated.
“Why are you laughing so happily?” Zi Ling’s voice suddenly came from behind Ye Feng. As the spirit of the Juewu Ark, she was aware of everything inside the ark. She had seen Ye Feng absorb that stone over the past few days, though she didn’t know exactly what it was.
“I’ve just mastered the space transmission ability from the space domain…” Ye Feng said shyly, as he found this ability rather weak.
“You’ve broken through to the ultimate stage of the law so quickly?” Zi Ling was slightly surprised. “Weren’t your space law abilities the last to reach perfection?”
“Yes, but the first one I mastered was an escape ability…” Ye Feng shook his head with a wry smile.
“Space transmission?” Zi Ling was momentarily stunned. “Actually, this ability isn’t weak at all. It’s already a sixth-level ability and is basically the strongest escape ability. I think it’s quite good.”
“But I want to be able to attack, yet I’ve only mastered one space transmission law…” Ye Feng still felt disappointed.
“Actually, abilities like space transmission can be improved and evolved into the seventh-level Space Exile. I’m not sure exactly how, but I know there’s a powerful warrior who possesses such an ability—capable of exiling people to any place, even to the most desolate areas of the Hongmeng Mysteries, forcing their opponents to die without even lifting a hand.” Zi Ling’s eyes sparkled with longing.

“Uh, indeed, even the same divine ability depends on how the user applies it… I thought exiling someone would at most send them to some other dimension, but there’s such a ruthless method as well…” Hearing this, Ye Feng finally gained a bit of confidence. Although he still wasn’t sure how to evolve this ability, at least he now had an idea. If others could do it, he might be able to too.
“By the way, logically speaking, spatial laws are basically the most difficult to comprehend and practice. Why did you face almost no obstacles and immediately achieve this divine ability?” Zi Ling asked curiously. “What kind of extreme substance did you use to comprehend spatial laws at first?”
“It was the Voidstone,” Ye Feng remembered. He had never asked Zi Ling about the Voidstone before.
“What? It’s actually the Voidstone???” Zi Ling let out a sharp cry of surprise.
