Chapter 550: The Jiaoyang Holy City Lord's Speculation, Physical Body Saint Path
"The City Lord has actually left the Holy Temple."
"Could it be that something catastrophic has occurred in the Shenzhou Continent?"
"I don't know, but the City Lord is a Quasi-Saint. If he had to personally get involved, it's best we don't meddle and worry ourselves unnecessarily lest we get tainted by karma and encounter misfortune."
"Shh!"
As the Jiaoyang Holy City's City Lord left in the flesh, the Void Break Realm Elders of various major powers buzzed with speculation.
They were all very curious about this matter.
But for the sake of their lives, no one dared to follow.
Even if they wanted to, with their speed, they couldn't hope to catch up to even one percent of the Jiaoyang Holy City's City Lord.
...
Zhongyuan City.
After erasing the traces of the ruined temple, Ye Feng crushed the Teleportation Talisman and appeared in the Whitefloat City's City Lord's Mansion.
There was a Medium-Sized Transport Formation here, linking to the "Heavenly Thunder City", the imperial capital of the Leiwu Dynasty, eight million miles away.

And the reason Ye Feng teleported here was, of course, because he had created a brand new Teleportation Talisman, compatible with the Medium-Sized Transport Formation, capable of transporting over a hundred thousand miles in a single use.
"Eh, who are you?"
The Element Gathering Realm Cultivator responsible for guarding the Transport Formation scrutinized the suddenly appearing Ye Feng, only to see that the person in front of him was enveloped in a golden mist, making it impossible to recognize who it was.
Whoosh!
Ye Feng paid no heed to the man and instantly vanished, and when he appeared again, he was sitting on the wisteria chair at the peak of Misty Peak.
"Ah, comfortable!"
He lay down to rest, a smile playing on his lips.
This trip to Zhongyuan City not only resolved the backing behind Wang Xuanping but also uprooted the stronghold built by the Soul-Devouring Clan in the ruined temple. At the same time, it doubled his Slaughter Energy, making it a huge gain.
...
Zhongyuan City.
The void rippled like water.
A colossal transparent figure appeared out of thin air, surveying the surroundings.
This person was the City Lord of Jiaoyang Holy City.
A powerful Quasi-Saint!
"Strange, the traces here seem to have been forcefully erased; I can't deduce anything... Never mind, I'll still force a deduction and see if I can discover anything."
The Jiaoyang Holy City's City Lord murmured to himself.
He formed seals with his hands.
An ancient incantation echoed, but no one in Zhongyuan City could hear it, nor could anyone see the City Lord of Jiaoyang Holy City there.
He was like a wisp of air.
Or rather, as if he was in an entirely different time and space.
After a short while.
The events that had recently unfolded in Zhongyuan City began to replay, but Ye Feng's figure was very blurry, making it hard to discern his face—only the stature of a tall man was discernable.
In the images.
Ye Feng, shrouded in a golden fog, emitted a Quasi-Saint level aura, and with a palm strike, he blew up five Void Break Realm Elders from afar.
"Nothing much!"
The Jiaoyang Holy City's City Lord murmured to himself.
As a Quasi-Saint, it was easy to crush Void Break Realm individuals with a single palm, nothing to be proud of or boast about.
But what followed in the images made him narrow his pupils.
Within the ancient Life Star behind the space rift, there were also terror-inducing Quasi-Saint level beings making a move, especially that dark gold long spear that even made the Jiaoyang Holy City's City Lord frown slightly.
However, the mysterious figure that Ye Feng had transformed into didn't even need to act to shatter that spear.
"Such defensive capability... Is he a Physical Body Saint Path Saint?"
The City Lord of Jiaoyang Holy City took a sharp breath of cold air.
Who else but a Saint of the Physical Body Saint Path could shatter a Quasi-Saint's full-strength attack with their own defensive aura?
"Terrifying!"
The City Lord of Jiaoyang Holy City thought with increasing alarm, "Perhaps, this is a rare Physical Body Saint Path Saint. This is a grave matter; I must immediately enter the small world to consult with the Saint!"
Whoosh!
The Jiaoyang Holy City's City Lord immediately left, preparing to report the matter to the Jiaoyang Ancient Saint.
...
In the depths of the starry sky.
The Ancestral Star of the Soul-Devouring Clan.
A super giant face towering a hundred thousand miles high floated in the starry sky, looking down at the Ancestral Star below. It was seen that one-tenth of this massive Life Star had been neatly sliced off by Ye Feng's Sword Qi.
Soon after, the sliced-off fragment was shattered into dust by the exploding Sword Qi, instantly annihilating billions of lives.
At this, the anger of the Soul-Devouring Clan's ancestor was uncontrollable.
"Damn the Human Race saints, once I ascend to sainthood, I shall annihilate your entire race and join forces with other starry sky saints to tear you into a million pieces!"
The frigid voice spread throughout the Ancestral Star of the Soul-Devouring Clan.
The numerous beings below had never seen the Ancestor of the Soul-Devouring Clan so enraged before, each one was quiet as a cicada in winter.
Very soon.
The news that a mysterious Human Race Saint had slashed away one-tenth of the Soul-Devouring Clan's Ancestral Star with a single sword strike spread like wildfire.
Light-years away.
The Great Elder of the Horn-Fluff Tribe was discussing the detailed plan for invading the Shenzhou Continent with the Ancestor of Tree Demons.
Before long.
A scout arrived with news about the Ancestral Star of the Soul-Devouring Clan.
Upon hearing this, both elders were taken aback with shock.
"The Soul-Devouring Clan is a mighty race of the starry sky, guarded by a Quasi-Saint. Yet they had one-tenth of their Ancestral Star destroyed. That is truly tragic!"
"Who could it be that was so valiant?"
"That's hard to say. On the Shenzhou Continent where the Human Race dwells, openly, only the Nine Great Holy Lands have Saints overseeing them. But they are all too mysterious, difficult to discern."
"Regardless, this time, the Soul-Devouring Clan has fallen into great misfortune, not only losing one-tenth of their star body but also five Elders of the Void Break Realm. They will need at least a thousand years to recover."
"Just in time for the other starry sky mighty races to rise to the occasion."
The Ancestor of Tree Demons and the Great Elder of the Horn-Fluff Tribe exchanged glances, both breaking into malevolent grins.
"Alright, let's set aside the matter of the Soul-Devouring Clan for now and continue discussing how to infiltrate the Shenzhou Continent undetected."
"I believe we could enter through those secret realms."
"This method is feasible, but how to find these secret realms is an issue worth considering."
"I know of a fellow called 'Ancestor of the Underground Cavern.' He's set up a secret realm underneath the Mystique Kingdom, supposedly his tomb, fostering a group called the 'Tomb Guardians' of the Underground Cavern Alien Race.
We could attempt to connect to the channel left by the Ancestor of the Underground Cavern in the starry sky, and then our true bodies could descend upon the Shenzhou Continent."
"Is that so?"
"Of course."
"Then that's marvelous!"
The Ancestor of Tree Demons and the Great Elder of the Horn-Fluff Tribe's conversation grew more elated, their smiles twisting gradually.
They even began celebrating the success of their plan prematurely.
"When Ancestor Lingmiao and Ancestor Jinling see our true bodies descend, they will certainly be dumbstruck, won't they?"
"And Ye Feng of the Misty Sect, he will surely be scared witless."
"Most certainly."
The two great elders laughed heartily.
They did not know that the mysterious Human Race Saint who had slashed away one-tenth of the Soul-Devouring Clan's Ancestral Star was none other than Ye Feng, whom they took so lightly.
Fate is indeed beyond words!
Nor did Ye Feng know that in Mo Ying's homeland, the small world of the Underground Cavern Alien Race suppressed by the Ancient Soul Clan, there hid an ancient pathway leading to the starry sky.
...
In the Holy Temple of Jiaoyang Holy City.
The City Lord opened a light gate and stepped into a vast world filled with dense spiritual energy, teeming with powerful beings, and where Spiritual and Divine Medicines bloomed everywhere.
"What's the matter?"
No sooner had the City Lord of Jiaoyang Holy City set foot into the Jiaoyang Realm than a majestic, ancient, and profound voice imbued with supreme divine might inquired indifferently.
"Lord Ancient Saint, I have a matter to report."
"Speak!"
"In the southern part of the Shenzhou Continent, there is a small country known as the South Ming Country. Recently, a battle of Quasi-Saint Level erupted above its capital, Zhongyuan City... and one of the contenders seems to have achieved the Physical Body Saint Path, capable of automatically smashing the full strength blow of a Quasi-Saint."
"Physical Body Saint Path?"
The voice of the Jiaoyang Ancient Saint remained indifferent, but the pace of his words quickened slightly, revealing the shock within.
"Yes, highly likely."
The City Lord of Jiaoyang Holy City projected the scenes that had been deduced over Zhongyuan City into mid-air.
After browsing the images, the always unseen Jiaoyang Ancient Saint, with a slightly deepened voice, said:
"This person has formed an Invincible Domain around his body, a definite sign of achieving the Physical Body Saint Path. I had not anticipated that hidden within the Shenzhou Continent would be such a powerful being."
