Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1625 - 1608: Cultivators’ Assembly (Outbreak, Seeking Support)

"Don’t worry, according to the prophecy, it’s not a dead end, which means there’s room for reversal." Seeing the two women so concerned about him, Lin Feng felt a warmth in his heart, smiled, and told them to rest assured. He had thought this way from the beginning, although there was no life-threatening danger for him, he hoped that nothing bad would happen to the two women, which is why he initially asked them not to go with him this time.

"Alright then, Sister Leng and I won’t follow you to the new world. We’ll wait outside." Upon hearing Lin Feng say this, Ding Wan’er finally breathed a sigh of relief. She thought seriously for a moment and finally agreed to Lin Feng’s request. Her and Leng Mei’s strength were still too low. If they followed Lin Feng, it would only distract him as he would have to care for them. Since the situation was dangerous this time, they couldn’t be burdens for Lin Feng. As long as Lin Feng was fine, they would be too.

"Leave the matters outside to Wan’er and me; rest assured, promise us that nothing will go wrong," Leng Mei added from the side. She knew she couldn’t change Lin Feng’s decision, so she decided to do more things to reassure him.

"Rest assured, I won’t get into trouble." Lin Feng felt a warmth in his heart after hearing the two women’s words. He said lightly, then embraced the two women for a brief moment of warmth before leaving directly.

Above the vast cloud layers, Lin Feng stood alone on the cloud top with his eyes closed. This journey’s peril made him feel a sense of crisis, so at this moment, he decided he had to enhance his strength as much as possible. No one would have expected that high above the clouds, the aura was rolling unstoppably, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was furiously gathering towards Lin Feng, and at this moment, he seemed like a standing statue of Buddha, emanating a faint golden glow. Even a layer of halo appeared within several dozen meters around him...

Meanwhile, Zhang Tianzhen was chatting with a few people in a room.

"Have you arranged what I tasked you with?"

"What Master Zhang instructed, how could we not accomplish it."

"Things have changed a bit this time, we need to change our method of action."

"What method?"

...

The voices of Zhang Tianzhen and the others were very low, and with the cover of formations, no one knew that people had come to visit him. Lin Feng’s appearance disrupted his setup, so now he could only reorganize. Even though he was just a Formation Master, who truly understood his real strength?

Their conversation finally ended around midnight, and they quietly left Zhang Tianzhen’s place. After they were all gone, Zhang Tianzhen’s face was very sullen.

"Lin Feng, let’s see how you leave alive this time!"

Watching the moon in the sky, Zhang Tianzhen viciously thought to himself. Although dealing with Lin Feng was risky, as long as he used the right method, no matter how strong Lin Feng was, it wouldn’t matter. After all, he was a Formation Master, and to eliminate such a powerful potential threat, Zhang Tianzhen was willing to pay any price to ensure Lin Feng died...

As the morning sun slowly rose, not far from the entrance to the new world, a high platform had already been erected. The platform led directly to the entrance of the new world. On the platform, however, was a long table, and sitting behind it were the Family Heads of the four great families, as well as two patriarchs, Hu Nan and Jiang Tianhun. Besides them was an unfamiliar face, which was the Lei Family’s Family Head, Lei Yan.

In fact, sitting at this place made Lei Yan feel very uncomfortable, but he had no choice. No one could find where Lin Feng had gone, so he could only be here on behalf of the European Cultivation Forces Alliance. Seeing tens of thousands of people below made his scalp tingle, yet to substitute for Lin Feng, he could only endure the immense pressure to hold the conference with the leaders of the other six great forces.

The crowd below was very loud, as all the Loose Cultivators were very excited at this moment. For them, this opportunity was incredibly rare. With so few cultivation resources usually available, entering the new world was truly a godsend. Not to mention the abundance of celestial treasures inside the new world, just the ample spiritual energy in the new world alone was enough to make them thrilled.

An elderly man wearing a white long robe walked onto the platform and stood on top of it, shouting to the numerous Loose Cultivators below, "Quiet down!"

The voice was like a great bell, instantly enveloping tens of thousands of people. Upon hearing this, everyone immediately stopped discussing and focused their gaze on the elderly man in white, eager to know what he intended to say.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Yuan Feng, the Head of the Cultivators’ Conference Organizing Committee for this event. Sitting behind me on the high platform are seven leaders of the top forces in the Cultivation World. The purpose of this Cultivators’ Conference, I believe, is clear to everyone; it’s to enter the new world on top of this platform."

"After discussions among the committee, we’ve balanced various relationships and made the following regulations regarding those who may enter the new world. First, each of the seven forces will have their elite teams entering, but there are limitations on the number of participants. Each force must not exceed 500 people. As for the Loose Cultivators, we will not set a specific number, but there is a requirement for strength. Loose Cultivators wishing to enter the new world must have reached the late stage of the Transcendent Realm, otherwise, they will not have the ability to protect themselves inside the new world."

"Many Loose Cultivators may not have reached the late stage of the Transcendent Realm yet and still wish to enter—this is not without opportunity. The seven forces will send a judging panel, and you can go for an assessment there. If you meet the requirements, you can also qualify to enter the new world."

"Lastly, I want to add that once you enter the new world, anything can happen. Our committee will not offer any guarantees. Once inside, life and death will be left to fate. Therefore, I advise all Loose Cultivators to consider this issue. While exploring the new world is exciting, personal survival must also be considered. That’s all I have to say. The registration point is on the left under the platform, and the judging panel is on the right. Loose Cultivators may proceed to sign up."

Yuan Feng briefly relayed the agenda of this Cultivators’ Conference to inform the numerous Loose Cultivators below of the rules for entering the new world. Once he finished speaking, discussion erupted among the many Loose Cultivators below the platform.

"Is it really this simple?"

"How can it be this simple? With the seven forces there, if they enter, how will we Loose Cultivators have any scraps left?"

"But they have a limit in numbers, whereas we don’t?"

"Who are the ones leading the seven forces? Surely Super Powerhouses of patriarch status. Once we encounter them, who can guarantee surviving?"

"True, then we’d better avoid them and not confront them, wouldn’t that solve the problem?"

"Then what benefits can we get?"

"Well, it’s better than dying. Let them have the meat; we’ll just drink the soup."

"Hmm, I’ve decided to go in. I’d be unwilling to die without seeing the so-called new world."

"Exactly, I’ll sign up too. Once we’re inside, we’re all Loose Cultivators. By banding together, we can protect ourselves, even if trouble arises."

...

No one among the Loose Cultivators had imagined that the requirements for entering the new world would be so low. They thought there would be some huge competition, but this was good; everyone had a chance to enter. However, the basic condition was somewhat high—reaching the late stage of the Transcendent Realm. For Prominent Families, this was not very difficult, but for Loose Cultivators, this condition was rather high, effectively preventing about ninety percent of people from entering.

Loose Cultivators above the late Transcendent Realm continuously headed to the registration points, relieved that they could smoothly enter the new world. As for the others who were unwilling, they swarmed toward the judging panel, undergoing assessments one by one according to requirements. The assessors were late-stage Transcendent Realm experts sent by the seven forces. Only those who could successfully challenge them or survive for half an hour without defeat could pass.

The judging panel prepared ten arenas for this purpose. However, there were too many who wanted to enter the new world. Even with the dangers they might face, they all wanted to try their luck. With the ten arenas conducting assessments simultaneously, Loose Cultivators kept stepping onto the platforms. Most couldn’t pass the assessments, leaving regretfully. Only a small portion with exceptional combat capability earned the right to enter.

Once these activities were proceeding in an orderly manner, the seven great force representatives on the platform departed the scene. Such things were quite tedious and time-consuming; there was no need for them to sit there all the time, and they had their own affairs to attend to. Coming here was merely for show and to shake things up.

The conference was in full swing, and the scene was chaotic, with some people excited, some downcast, some hesitant, and some bewildered. The myriad facets of human nature were all present here...

Two days later, the Cultivators’ Conference finally concluded. After two days of evaluation and registration, in the end, only more than a thousand Loose Cultivators met the standards, a mere one percent compared to the nearly ten thousand cultivators present.

To ensure the stability of the new world entry and for safety considerations, the entry method to the new world would use a Teleportation Formation. Zhang Tianzhen had set up a short-distance teleportation device a day earlier. With his level as a Formation Master, setting up such a short-distance, same-plane teleportation was quite easy.

The Teleportation Formation covered a large area, able to transport five hundred people at a time. Undoubtedly, the European Cultivation Forces Alliance led by Lin Feng was to be the first wave of transmission. Following the sequence, it would subsequently be the Xia Family, Song Family, Gu Family, Kong Family, Southeast Asian Cultivation Forces Alliance, American Cultivation Forces Alliance, and finally the Loose Cultivators.

Although this sequence had been predetermined, no one opposed it. Everyone knew that the first batch to enter would acquire more resources, and since the seven forces hadn’t objected, why should the Loose Cultivators? Under the envious gazes of many Loose Cultivators, Lin Feng led the elites of the European Cultivation Forces Alliance and his own followers onto the Teleportation Formation, leaving only the two women with the European Forces Alliance.
