Chapter 758: The Final Evolution of the Illusory Realm

Ye Feng didn’t know how long he had practiced in this non-existent place, but it didn’t matter. Time didn’t exist within this space, so no matter how long he stayed there, the outside world wouldn’t notice.
“Three breaths’ time?” Though not entirely satisfied with this result, it was difficult to make further progress in such a short period. He planned to use his supreme privileges or comprehension powers to improve himself once he finished his tasks here.
Leaving the non-existent place, Ye Feng slowly got up from the shattered ice layers and moved his slightly frozen body around a bit.
The replica seemed unimpressed by his appearance and reappeared in front of him in an instant.
“Hmph, Time Stop!” With a cold snort, Ye Feng halted the replica’s movement.
He quickly switched to a powerful sword and used his level 177 divine skill to pierce through the replica’s head.
But instead of abandoning the corpse, Ye Feng transformed the leaves of the Imperial Demon Plant into chains to bind it.
“If you wake up once, I’ll kill you once—this will make things much simpler,” Ye Feng said, a fierce look in his eyes.
A moment later, the replica woke up again, its strength surging once more. Yet even at the level of an eighth-tier powerhouse, it couldn’t break free from the chains of a peak-grade treasure.
Ye Feng pierced its head again.
It woke up once more and was killed again.
When it woke up for the third time, Ye Feng’s chains were violently torn apart into fragments.
“Damn it…” Ye Feng immediately retreated, but the replica, now an tenth-tier powerhouse, was too fast. In the blink of an eye, it grabbed his throat.
“Time Stop!” Ye Feng used the skill again and swung his sword at the replica’s forehead. But the blade only penetrated halfway before he quickly retreated. The replica then rushed forward and punched Ye Feng in the head. Ye Feng tried to block with his sword but was sent flying. Even the bones in his arm were shattered beyond recognition.
Ye Feng took a deep breath. He had rarely fought so fiercely. He finally understood just how astonishing his combat strength would be once he reached the tenth tier—its physical resilience was even beyond what even the most powerful treasures could overcome.
However, the bigger drawback was that his Time Stop skill, which could once freeze the opponent for three breaths, could now only do so for one breath due to the huge strength gap.

Ye Feng also knew this, as this existence had once told him that with his current strength, if he encountered a level-10 warrior, he would only have time to stay still for a moment. So when the opponent rushed at him, he didn’t use his enhanced abilities, as there simply wasn’t enough time.

A furious shout was heard, and Ye Feng’s vision blurred again as his throat was choked once more. The scar on the forehead of that face identical to his own was healing at a visibly rapid pace. The opponent’s blood-red eyes revealed clear intent to kill.

Seeing the opponent throw a punch at his face, Ye Feng’s vision went dark once again.

“Damn it! My copy’s actual combat strength as a level-10 warrior is actually this fierce,” Ye Feng couldn’t help but curse in that non-existent place.

“Who told you to kill him so early? I gave you the Time Manipulation ability just to help you deal with him and get through these ten days. Yet in less than a minute, you killed him twice in a row, forcing him to rise from a level-8 warrior to a level-10 warrior. With your copy’s current combat strength, there are very few people in that space who can defeat him,” the existence scolded bluntly.

“I temporarily forgot that level-10 warriors can crush peak-grade treasures… Using the Imperial Demon Vine to bind him was a complete mistake. I should have tied him up from the start without fighting him, so he wouldn’t be able to improve his strength or break free,” Ye Feng said helplessly.

“I’ll give you another boost. As for how to deal with that guy, you figure it out yourself.” As soon as the existence finished speaking, Ye Feng felt something being taken out of his mind sea.

“Elder, you…” Ye Feng didn’t know what the existence was doing, but he felt something closely related to him seemingly losing contact with him.

“Don’t worry. I’ve just taken out your Void Domain. This thing is truly peculiar—although it’s just a true treasure, it can be elevated to the level of a supreme treasure. Seeing that it’s still devouring other supreme treasures, I accelerated the process for it. I also threw in the supreme treasure from your ring. I’ll give it back to you once it’s ready,” the existence’s voice echoed softly.

After a while, another tremor came from his mind sea.

“Alright. How you deal with it from now on is your concern. If you still can’t handle it, you can always be sent back to me,” the voice said, and the existence vanished without a trace.

Ye Feng left the Non-Existent Land once again and heard the projection of the Void Realm transmitting a message to him, “Master, back in that special space just now, I have already elevated all the peak supreme treasures on you to the level of ultimate supreme treasures…” Before it could finish speaking, another dark shadow appeared. Ye Feng wasn’t in a hurry. He waited until the opponent captured him, then instantly used his time-stopping ability. At the same time, dozens of chains that had been upgraded to the level of ultimate supreme treasures wrapped around the opponent. He took this risk because he knew the opponent was too fast to capture directly. He had to use himself as a bait to freeze the opponent’s movements and then lock them down.

Although he had already reached the level of a level-10 powerhouse, ultimate supreme treasures were among the strongest weapons and armor in the highest realms and could definitely not be destroyed by an ordinary level-10 powerhouse.

This time, Ye Feng didn’t attack the opponent. Instead, he used the chains to lock them down, preventing them from moving at all. Then he sat aside, patiently waiting for the remaining nine days to pass.

The ordeal of this day had already been exhausting for him. However, after these several battles, Ye Feng’s strength had improved significantly. His physical strength had already reached the peak of a level-6 powerhouse, and with two more upgrades, it was now extremely close to that of a level-7 powerhouse. The same was true for his soul strength.

When he extended his soul power into the Void Realm, the atmosphere of the entire realm had completely changed.

The original projection of the Void Realm finally took physical form and was no longer his own appearance.

“Are you a spirit of a weapon?” Ye Feng asked.

“You could say that, but I am also the Void Realm itself,” the Void Realm nodded. “The Ninth Realm has been opened, and you, Master, will receive supreme rewards.”

“What kind of rewards are there?”

“1. Once every hundred days, you will receive the reward of supreme privilege.”

“2. Every ten days, you will have three opportunities for supreme comprehension privilege and three opportunities for supreme bestowal privilege.”

“3. All other privileges can be used ten times a day.”

“4. All items within the scope of these privileges can be obtained for free, without any restrictions!”

“5. For items outside this scope, you can borrow one every hundred years, or use ten supreme privileges to borrow one.”

“Items outside this scope?” Ye Feng raised his eyebrows. “If even ultimate supreme treasures can be obtained easily, what else could there be outside this scope?”

“Items that transcend the laws of heaven… for example, items of the same level as me,” the Void Realm replied.

“At your same level?” Ye Feng was momentarily confused. “Aren’t you the ultimate treasure?”
“The me now is not the ultimate treasure. I could throw tens of thousands of ultimate treasures at you at will—do you still think I am the ultimate treasure?” Xu Yu said with a smile.
“Then what rank are you?” Ye Feng pressed further.
“I don’t know either. There seems to be no rank that can define me anymore,” Xu Yu replied. “Because we have transcended the category of tools. We can take on human form, just like you humans, possessing human emotions and desires. We can even get married and have children.”
“Become humans?” Hearing this, Ye Feng was stunned.
“That’s right. There’s no need to be so surprised,” Xu Yu said with a smile. “I’ll give you all the rewards now.”
A moment later, all the rewards had been transferred.
“What about borrowing?” Ye Feng asked.
“In this infinite universe, there are five items like me that have evolved from tools to this level, including me. There’s a sword, a blade, an armor set, and a shield. I’m a special case—without offensive or defensive capabilities, but with some special abilities. After learning of my existence, they immediately contacted me, wanting to borrow my abilities for other purposes. These abilities are the Supreme Privileges. Their request was one hundred uses of the Supreme Privileges in exchange for one chance to use them. Every hundred years, I store some Supreme Privileges for backup. If you really need them, I can transfer them to you for trading. Initially, they wanted three days per use, but after bargaining, I managed to get ten days.”
“It sounds quite powerful… But what special effects do those weapons and armor have?” Ye Feng asked further.
“They are the only weapons that can harm those who have condensed a higher plane within their bodies and thus become powerful beings in this infinite universe. They are also the only defenses that can protect against such attacks.” Despite the complicated explanation, Ye Feng understood.
“Condensing a higher plane…” Ye Feng certainly knew this was the goal that the Heavenly Dao Master had been pursuing all along—yet even he hadn’t succeeded. “I see. If I need to borrow them, I’ll contact you then. The chances of encountering such enemies should be low anyway. By the way, the strength of my body and soul is almost enough to elevate me to the level of a seventh-tier powerhouse. I just need to wait a few more days until the number of powerful beings in the higher planes within my body reaches the required threshold before I can ascend.”

“Use the Supreme Bestowal Power directly to bless the universe within the body; it can accelerate the cultivation speed of the lifeforms in that universe,” suggested the Void Realm.
“Good, then let’s do it. Use it three times in a row—exactly nine days,” Ye Feng nodded at the Void Realm.
“Use the Supreme Bestowal Power three times to bless the universe within the body!”
Ye Feng was instantly enveloped in a beam of light, which passed through his body and penetrated into the universe within him…
