Chapter 767: Re-entering the Meteor River

In the core area of the Meteor River, which was originally a battleground for level-10 warriors, three level-9 warriors arrived on this day. When Ye Feng and his two companions stepped into the core area in front of numerous level-9 warriors, those warriors were stunned. They naturally recognized Ye Feng as the level-6 warrior from some time ago who had gained fame in the outer areas. But they never expected this young man to rise to the level of a level-9 warrior so quickly and even enter the core battle area reserved for level-10 warriors.

When Ye Feng appeared with Luo Yan and Jin Wen, many level-10 warriors found it impossible to determine the level of Ye Feng’s divine powers. Only Tian Dao’s eyes lit up upon seeing the three of them.

“You three have improved so rapidly?” Tian Dao couldn’t help but exclaim. “We really have three great reinforcements this time!”

“This conflict came too early. I had planned to cultivate in silence for a while,” Ye Feng said with a wry smile.

“Isn’t it the same for me?” Tian Dao also seemed helpless. “Ever since I learned from you that the second elder of the Devouring Clan was about to make a breakthrough, I wanted to find an opportunity to cultivate until I made progress before coming out. But unexpectedly, Shi Hun and the others started this conflict under the pretense of avenging Shi Kong, actually just to delay your cultivation and prevent you from growing stronger. However, your speed of improving your divine powers is too fast—this was their miscalculation. But after three years of preparation, they must be well-armed. We need to be extremely cautious.”

“Mm, I understand,” Ye Feng nodded. “They hastened this conflict because of me. I certainly won’t disappoint them. I’ll show them my true strength.”

The reason Blood Sea didn’t appear was, first, that his presence in such a situation would only provoke resentment among Tian Dao and the others. Second, Blood Sea was reluctant to be harsh on his own kin. Although he had previously played tricks on others secretly, he had never directly caused his own clan members to perish. Third, most of those present recognized Blood Sea’s appearance, making it awkward for him to show up.

However, with his current strength, Blood Sea was indeed terrifying. After obtaining Ye Feng’s life essence, his understanding of divine powers was almost on par with Ye Feng’s. Moreover, as a level-10 warrior, the only one in the human camp who could likely defeat him was probably Tian Dao alone.

On the opposing side, it was indeed the Grand Elder of the Devouring Clan—Elder Demon Devourer—who led them this time. If not for the internal information about the Devouring Clan that Ye Feng obtained from the Void Devouring Place, all the human warriors would likely think that Elder Demon Devourer was the strongest being in the Outer Lands. After all, Elder Demon Devourer was truly formidable, with his divine powers reaching over 800 levels, barely inferior to those of Tian Dao. He had always been Tian Dao’s greatest rival.

Upon seeing the powerful warriors on the opposing side, Tian Dao remained silent for a moment before sending a message to Ye Feng, “I don’t see the Third Elder of the Devouring Clan. Be careful. That guy is also extremely strong; it is said his divine power level has surpassed 400 recently.”

Ye Feng nodded. If the opponent’s divine power was only around 400 levels, he wouldn’t need to worry too much, as his own divine power had already reached 430 levels. But since Tian Dao mentioned it, Ye Feng still had to be cautious to avoid a surprise attack. According to Tian Dao’s guess, this war was aimed at him specifically—they wanted to crush him right from the start.

On the side of the Outer Lands camp, Soul Devourer whispered something to Elder Demon Devourer, occasionally glancing over at Ye Feng’s side, clearly discussing matters related to him.

After a while, Elder Demon Devourer finally spoke up, “Tian Dao, this young man by your side must be Ye Feng, the top genius in your human camp these days, right?”

His words were malicious. With just one sentence, everyone in the Outer Lands camp knew about Ye Feng. The hidden meaning in his words was clear—as well: “This is humanity’s top genius. We must eliminate him at any cost in this struggle.”

Sure enough, many powerful warriors in the Outer Lands turned their attention toward Ye Feng.

Many powerful warriors on the human camp side frowned slightly; they naturally understood the trick Elder Demon Devourer had played just now.

“I thought, given that he’s only at the level of a ninth-grade warrior, you’d send him to the area reserved for ninth-grade warriors,” Elder Demon Devourer continued.

Ye Feng immediately guessed where the Third Elder of the Devouring Clan might be—likely he had gone to the internal area to block him.

“If I were to go to the internal area, it would take just a short while for me to wipe out all the Outer Lands warriors there. Wouldn’t that be boring?” Ye Feng stepped forward with a smile.

“As expected, as arrogant as the rumors say!” Elder Demon Devourer waved his sleeve, sending a surge of dark energy toward Ye Feng.

Just as Ye Feng was about to act, Tian Dao beside him let out a cold snort, dispelling the attack. “Demon Devourer, don’t forget—your opponent is me.”

“Hey, even so, let’s fight then. I’m curious to see who can save this kid once I hold you back.” As the Demon Devourer spoke, he vanished. The Heavenly Dao disappeared at the same time. Seeing this, Soul Devourer glanced coldly at Ye Feng. “Soul Devourer, the number one among the Four Kings of the Outer Lands—do you really intend to trouble a young man?” A familiar voice came from behind Ye Feng—it was Immortal. With a single step, he confronted Soul Devourer, and the two began fighting. Although Immortal’s divine powers were not as strong as Soul Devourer’s, after dying three times in the secret realm last time, his soul strength, physical strength, and cultivation level had improved tremendously. Even those who had truly reached the highest realms would find it difficult to kill him instantly, which was why he could dare to challenge Soul Devourer. Ye Feng had originally been eager to defeat the Demon Devourer, as his own divine power level was a full hundred levels higher, allowing him to easily handle him. But Immortal didn’t know his own strength level, so he naturally didn’t want to take risks. Moreover, the Devouring Clan had some restraint over Immortal’s bloodline—once completely consumed, he could not be revived. Scanning the area, Ye Feng spotted a blood-red figure—the patriarch of the Blood Demon Clan, whose divine power level was also over 300, not as high as Soul Devourer’s but not far behind. Realizing his own bloodline level was only at 8, Ye Feng became interested in this target. Luo Yan behind Ye Feng also looked in that direction, his gaze filled with anticipation. “Luo Yan, what’s wrong?” Ye Feng asked. “It’s the Progenitor fighting against that Blood Demon,” Luo Yan replied with reverence. “Is it Senior Blood Endless?” Ye Feng was thinking about how to get the opponent to fight him instead when he learned it was Blood Endless. In just a flash, he appeared at the battlefield along with Luo Yan and Jin Wen. Blood Endless, dressed in an imperial robe, had pitch-black eyes, prompting Ye Feng to glance at Luo Yan beside him. “Gah gah…” Upon seeing Ye Feng and the others approaching, the Blood Demon Patriarch was not alarmed but delighted. He stretched out three tentacles, aiming at them. “Be careful!” Before Blood Endless could finish speaking, three silver flashes appeared, severing all three tentacles. The one who did this was none other than Jin Wen, who now possessed the forbidden treasure, the Imperial Extreme Demon Plant. “Senior Blood, let me take on this opponent. I need to enhance my bloodline,” Ye Feng said, looking at Blood Endless.

Seeing the three’s performance just now, Xue Wuya was stunned. Even he couldn’t easily counter the attacks from the Blood Demon Clan Leader. The strength of Ye Feng and his two companions clearly surpassed his own.
“Well then, I’ll give it to you.” Xue Wuya stepped back. “But from now on, call me Big Brother Wuya, not ‘senior’. I’m also the son of the Immortal Father…”
“Thank you, Big Brother Wuya.” With a flash, Ye Feng rushed forward to confront the Blood Demon Clan Leader.
