The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 420: Chapter 420: Seven Steps to Heaven, Mole, A Brand New Spiritual Beast

“Disaster! This is too hard to comprehend, if one forces their memory, it will quickly fade from their mind.” Ji Ziling managed to understand and remember only the first three sentences before her head swelled with pain, as if she had reached her limit of endurance.

Qiao Jiaxi, Wang Ping’an, and Long Tianxing were just staring at each other in dismay.

Even Ji Ziling, who possessed a Supreme Grade root, struggled to comprehend this scripture, let alone the three of them.

They subconsciously looked towards Ye Feng.

“No need to memorize, I, the Sect Leader, have already mastered this scripture.”

Ye Feng said indifferently.

However, if one observed carefully, they would have seen a hint of pain in his eyes, as if he had lost a big chunk of flesh.

Just now, Ye Feng had activated the mode to spend lavishly.

After consuming a hundred thousand Prestige Points, he had acquired the complete version of the scripture and successfully studied it to the Perfection Stage.

Although the ancient scripture was very important, the sudden loss of a hundred thousand Prestige Points still caused Ye Feng considerable pain.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

“Sect Leader… You’ve comprehended the entire scripture?” Ji Ziling turned back in shock, her almond-shaped eyes wide with disbelief.

She knew full well how abstruse and difficult to understand the scripture was.

Even with her cleverness, known as a “walking encyclopedia,” she could only grasp the first three sentences.

The entire scripture, however, consisted of seven!

“Of course, I’ve comprehended all of it, and I accidentally cultivated it to the Perfection Stage. In a while, I will personally teach you all how to practice.”

Ye Feng nodded slightly.

Although spending lavishly was painful, the result was quite fruitful.

Whoosh!

Just then, the scripture in the sky turned into specks of golden light and dispersed, completely vanishing without a trace.

As for the glowing footprints on the ground, they gradually faded away.

Howl!

A strong wind arrived, carrying the sands, and the prints on the stone slabs began to erode, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

“Lucky that I spent lavishly, otherwise, who could comprehend it so quickly?” Ye Feng was somewhat speechless.

From the appearance to the disappearance of the scripture, not enough time for a cup of tea had passed; even Ji Ziling, with her Supreme Grade root, could only remember the first three sentences, not to mention the others.

It was speculated that without a Divine Grade or Holy Grade root, or an extremely high natural understanding, one wouldn’t stand a chance of remembering this scripture.

“Sect Leader, what does this scripture talk about?” Wang Ping’an was very curious, his eyes widening.

The others looked over as well.

“This is a Secret Technique known as ‘Seven Steps to Heaven,’ created by the owner of these footprints, named ‘Beihe.’ I guess that this person has at least reached the Void Break Realm, a figure at the level of an emperor or venerable ancestor,” Ye Feng explained.

The crowd’s faces were filled with shock.

Void Break Realm?

Could a true dragon emerge from this little place?

“Three thousand years ago, this ancient city was destroyed by the Soul-Devouring Clan. This powerful being named Beihe came here afterward, leaving behind these footprints that contained a Phenomenal Realm, sealing this scripture.”

Ye Feng continued, “He said that the ‘Seven Steps to Heaven’ is very powerful, and also reminded us to be cautious of the Soul-Devouring Clan.”

“Soul-Devouring Clan?”

The disciples had never heard of this term before.

However, a tribe even the Void Break Realm feared, must certainly be strong.

“It is said that those in the Divine Origin Realm can live for three thousand years, while those in the Void Break Realm start with a lifespan of at least eight thousand years, so, after three thousand years, this Beihe person should still be alive, just not sure to what Realm he has reached. Perhaps, he has already annihilated the entire Soul-Devouring Clan!” Ji Ziling pondered for a moment and said.

“That’s hard to say.” Ye Feng shook his head.

“Sect Leader, can you teach us the ‘Seven Steps to Heaven’ right now?” Long Tianxing was already impatient.

“I was just about to…” Ye Feng was just about to speak when he was interrupted by a strange call; he quickly looked towards the source of the sound.

A few dozen meters away, there was a mound of earth.

A mole emerged from the burrow and stood on the mound, making an “ah ah ah” noise.

“A mole???”

Ye Feng’s eyes widened.

He stared at the rather dumb-looking mole, which seemed to disregard their group entirely, basking in the sun, grooming its fur on the head with its paws, its movements exuding a touch of coquettishness and allure.

This scene was very much like a beaver washing its face and hair in the water.

However, the real sound of a mole is “squeak squeak squeak,” so why was this mole making an “ah ah ah” sound?

Ye Feng was full of confusion and activated the Scouting function of the Spirit Beast Pavilion.

“`

After that, his gaze became sharp.

This mole, not even half a meter tall and chubby, cute, and simple, was actually a middle-rank Demon General!

If he hadn’t used the scouting function, he would have really thought the other party was just an ordinary mole.

“A brand new spiritual beast has been found.”

Soon, Ye Feng’s lips curled up slightly.

“Eh, what kind of demonic beast is this?” Wang Ping’an saw the mole on the mound and immediately charged over with his large black pot on his back.

The mole wasn’t scared when it noticed someone approaching.

It stood on the mound, facing the warm sun, using its paws to comb through its fur on its head, quickly styling it into a sleek pompadour.

“This little mouse even knows how to groom its fur!”

Qiao Jiaxi also walked over and squatted beside the mole, gestured with her hand, and realized that it was only as tall as her knee.

“This is a mole, known for being good at digging and considered a little expert at that.” Ji Ziling walked over and began to narrate, according to what she had read in ancient books.

The mole, seeing the people gathered around, showed no fear in its eyes, as if it was looking at air.

It shook its head, took out a copper mirror, looked with satisfaction at its newly arranged hairstyle, raised its head, and stared fiercely at Wang Ping’an, then furiously slammed the mirror on the ground, letting out a loud “ah” scream.

This time, its voice contained a deep vitality power, like a storm, sending the four people present flying out.

“It’s a middle-rank Demon General!”

Wang Ping’an’s face turned green.

Who would have thought that the other party would be a Demon General, looking no more than a foot tall and without having transformed into human form!

“No wonder we couldn’t sense its presence; its bloodline is very special. Without taking action, it can perfectly hide itself.”

Ye Feng walked over and explained.

Upon hearing this, everyone realized how formidable this mole was.

“You messed up my hairstyle, I’ll shave you bald!” the mole actually spoke human language.

However, its voice sounded like a little child, whiny and fierce.

It leaped up, instantly arriving in front of Wang Ping’an, propped itself up with its front limbs, and with a leg sweep, knocked Wang Ping’an to the ground, then sat on his chest.

Its little chubby paws continuously slapped Wang Ping’an’s face.

“Ouch, Senior Brother, save me!”

Wang Ping’an, scared into tears, hastily called for help.

Seeing this scene, Ye Feng laughed.

The mole was angry, but it had no intent to kill and its attack wasn’t heavy; it seemed like it just wanted to teach Wang Ping’an a lesson.

“Ping An, apologize to it quickly, it’s all your fault for messing up its beloved hairstyle.” Ye Feng walked over, pinched the mole’s thick neck flab, and lifted it into the air.

At this moment, it was still waving its paws, unaware that it had been lifted off the ground.

“Ah?”

Only after about five breaths did the mole realize it had been picked up, and it turned around quickly, widening its eyes to look at Ye Feng.

“Little guy, join our Misty Sect’s Spirit Beast Pavilion, and have meat every day, how about that?” Ye Feng dangled the mole he was holding.

As he spoke, Ye Feng took out a piece of meat.

This was double-cooked pork he had casually taken from the kitchen before leaving.

Made by Li Jiaojiao, as soon as it appeared, it emitted an enticing meaty aroma.

Even though moles are generally herbivores, it was deeply drawn by this scent and couldn’t resist hugging the large piece of meat with its paws, vigorously gnawing away.

After finishing the meat, the mole used its greasy paws to comb a shiny, oiled pompadour.

Only then did it nod in agreement to join the Misty Sect.

“Hey, bought over by a meal, such a simple little guy!”

Ye Feng’s lips slightly curled, he took a drop of blood from the mole’s forehead, and then used the Spirit Beast Pavilion to complete the beast-taming process.

From then on, the mole became the 12th Mountain Guardian Spirit Beast of the Spirit Beast Pavilion.
