Chapter 575: Ye Feng Feeling Threatened
Pearl walked toward Ye Feng in her high heels, the snapping sound of her heels on the ground drawing everyone’s attention, with many showing nervous expressions.
“Well, satisfied with the results of the interrogation?” Pearl lifted the cup of coffee in her hand. This instant coffee was basically her daily drink, and she would ask Ye Feng for it almost every two months. Ye Feng naturally let her have it—it was better than her drinking cocktails.
Ye Feng nodded indifferently. He couldn’t say he was fully satisfied with the results, as it was bad news, and troublesome at that. However, judging by the thoroughness of the interrogation, Pearl had obtained quite complete and accurate information.
“It seems I’m quite good at this kind of thing. Come to me next time. I have plenty of such ‘games.’ It’s only my first time playing—just two rounds so far. I wonder when I’ll find someone to play the rest with.” Pearl glanced at the others present. Seeing her look their way, they quickly turned their heads elsewhere—some looked down at their feet, some stared at the ceiling, and others gazed blankly at the white walls…
“If there’s nothing else, we’ll head back first,” Pearl said, shoving the coffee cup into Ye Feng’s hands. “Next time you have time, get me a coffee machine. I’ve tried every brand of instant coffee.”
With that, she took Bai Yiyi by the arm and headed for the door, adding without looking back, “I haven’t tried the cup in your hand. It’s for you.”
Ye Feng glanced at the coffee cup in his hand, remembering he hadn’t had any in a while, and took a sip.
“By the way, that cup is my special one. Don’t forget to wash it clean after drinking and bring it back to me,” Pearl said with a smile after hearing him take a sip.
“Uh…” Ye Feng knew he had been tricked by Pearl again.
Long Tian and the others all looked amused.
After Pearl left, Sherlock quietly asked, “How do you know this woman?”
“It’s a long story. I’ve known her for a long time,” Ye Feng replied with a wry smile and shook his head.
Ulbeca’s eyes sparkled. “I wish I had such a sister…”
“My lady…” The other women looked at Ulbeca helplessly. They knew well that Ulbeca admired such individualistic female villains the most. Her idol was the female villain from the primary main plane, Casalina. Women with such personalities made Ulbeca admire them blindly.
“She did it on purpose, right?” Long Tian whispered to Ye Feng, “As far as I remember, she hasn’t been this crazy in a long time. It might also be a side effect of her improved cultivation level…”
“I don’t know. I’ve only heard the saying ‘A woman’s heart is like a needle hidden deep in the sea’—that’s all I know about women,” Ye Feng replied in a whisper.
“Uh, I forgot—you’re still a virgin…” Long Tian teased, “Hurry up and find a beautiful woman to marry!”
“You’re not much better, old bachelor!” Ye Feng retorted.
…
“Let’s focus on the important matters and figure out how to overcome the crisis in a hundred years,” Sherlock managed to restore order after the chaos caused by the guiding pearl.
“Let’s make a few copies of that recording for everyone to take back and show to the other rulers,” Ulbeceta suggested. “Then we should report this to the higher realms so they can prepare in advance. If necessary, use reverse teleportation to bring in powerful warriors to resolve this crisis.”
“That’s the best solution,” Ye Feng agreed. “If those aliens really send warriors at the nebula level, it will be a disaster for us.”
…
After some discussion, the rulers of the other sacred lands left, each taking a copy of Ye Feng’s recording. Ulbeceta asked Ye Feng to get to know Pearl and the other women first before leaving with her group of sisters. She seemed very excited, completely different from the intelligent beauty Ye Feng had seen before.
As for the mantis beast, it wasn’t killed immediately but was handed over to Ye Feng and the others.
Although this matter seemed resolved, it was far from over. If the aliens attacked in a hundred years, the entire sacred realm might fall.
After unlocking the sixth domain, Ye Feng had free access to all the items in the fifth sacred realm. Thus, numerous corpses of peak Supreme Saint-level warriors were provided to the two earliest female worms, which were placed in the guest rooms of the Absolute Martial Ark. With a million-fold time acceleration, they quickly reached the Starlight level. Their method of upgrading was simple: eating. As long as they had enough food and time, they would keep evolving. By the Starlight level, their cultivation progress slowed down because their food was only Supreme Saint-level corpses.
Yet this was sufficient, as both had mastered the law of reproduction and reached their current cultivation level, giving them one chance to give birth to new species.
Ye Feng made the ant queen give birth to a miniature parasite that could directly parasitize other species’ brains and control them. As for the bee queen, he made her give birth to pure combat creatures, similar in structure to the chaotic wolf demons like Xiao Jin, with every part of their bodies serving as a weapon. After that, Ye Feng began feeding the second generation of female insects and insect warriors. These creatures had basically reached the Supreme Saint level, and with enough food, they could soon reach the Starlight level as well. It should be noted that there were millions of these insects, the result of countless instances of mutual consumption, with only the finest remaining. Ye Feng knew well that if a war really broke out, he could only rely on this massive army of insects. After all, an individual’s strength was limited. Moreover, his ultimate trump card, bodyguard Luo Yan, was currently engaged in deep-level cultivation to reach the fifteenth level, and no one knew when he would finish. At the same time, Ye Feng also planned to refine medicinal pills to enhance his cultivation level. Although he didn’t have many herbs that could surpass the Saint level, he still had a considerable supply. Buying medicinal pills directly was expensive, but he could buy plenty of herbs. As for the Nine-Direction Cauldron, Ye Feng had long anticipated that it would be needed one day, so as soon as he obtained the Absolute Martial Ark, he placed it in the guest room and accelerated time by a million times to help the fire essence inside grow stronger. Calculated according to the time within the Absolute Martial Ark, that had happened over 400 million years ago. He had been focused on spatial laws before and hadn’t paid attention to it. After achieving his divine powers, he left right away without checking on the changes in the Nine-Direction Cauldron. In fact, the medicinal pill formulas were also a problem, but if necessary, he could use his privileges to exchange for some good formulas, so he wasn’t worried about that. Entering the Absolute Martial Ark again, Ye Feng approached the Nine-Direction Cauldron. “Nine-Direction, how’s the fire essence?” “It’s already capable of refining items from the star realm,” Nine-Direction understood what Ye Feng meant. “Given enough time, it’s even possible for me to break through to the Virtual Treasure level.” “That’s great. We’ll have medicinal pills to use in the future,” Ye Feng said with a smile. “Do you have any formulas for medicinal pills suitable for my cultivation level? I remember my second brother once telling me he used you to refine some things, right?”
“There are two pill formulas he used back then to test his skills—one to enhance soul cultivation and the other to improve overall cultivation level; they’re suitable for warriors at the Star Universe tier. With your current strength, you can’t refine them, and even with my help, the failure rate is quite high,” Jiu Fang said.
“Are you looking for pill formulas?” Zi Ling suddenly appeared behind Ye Feng. Her habit of showing up like this left Ye Feng speechless. “I have some here. Although we are martial cultivators, we do have some simple pill formulas. Moreover, I’ve cultivated all the way up, and I’ve been through your stage as well, so I have formulas that are very suitable for you.”
