The Great Ruler: Starting from the Lower Plane

Chapter 152 Preparation and Response

"Although I have already cultivated the Blazing Sword Body, the Supreme Spiritual Liquid required for cultivating this kind of Dharma Body Divine Ability is extremely high. Supreme Spiritual Liquid, this kind of cultivation resource, is still an indispensable part..."

After carefully comprehending the Supreme Dharma Body he had cultivated, Ye Feng murmured softly and sighed.

Just cultivating the Blazing Sword Body had cost him 60,000 Supreme Spirit Liquids, leaving him with only 30,000.

Even if we add the 60,000 Supreme Spirit Liquids that Tianfeng Pavilion currently possesses and converts, there are only a little over 90,000 left, less than 100,000.

While over 90,000 drops of Supreme Spiritual Liquid may seem like a large number, it is only enough to satisfy his cultivation up to the fourth rank of Supreme.

If used to cultivate the Dharma Body's supernatural powers, it would be squandered in no time.

"What kind of supreme Dharma body is the Pavilion Master cultivating? It's terrifying!"

Throughout Tianfeng City, countless people looked up at the colossal figure that resembled a god descending to earth, their hearts filled with indescribable awe.

"These kinds of Dharma bodies don't seem to be among the ninety-nine types; perhaps our understanding is too shallow—"

""

Amidst the vastness of the world, gasps and whispers mingled together as everyone gazed upon the colossal Dharma body, their eyes filled with awe.

They could clearly sense that the pressure emanating from that Dharma body was far beyond that of ordinary supreme Dharma bodies.

The two auras, so sharp and intense, intertwined, seemed capable of burning everything and annihilating all things.

Qianxuan, Chen Duanjin, and Li Baixing stood in mid-air, their gazes fixed on the Dharma body, speechless for a long time.

"Supreme Dharmakaya————"

Chen Duanjin murmured, his voice trembling slightly.

"When the Pavilion Master fought with others before, he never used his Dharma Body. I thought he was hiding something, but it turns out he has never cultivated it at all—"

"Since the Pavilion Master has not yet cultivated the Dharma Body, he is no match for Supreme beings of the same level. After cultivating the Dharma Body, his strength will surely be even more terrifying."

Li Baixing picked up the conversation, his eyes filled with admiration for Ye Feng.

Following this pavilion master was a rare opportunity.

Although he did not receive the Supreme Heaven Pill as a reward this time, he did receive a reward of one thousand Supreme Spirit Liquids.

This would have been unimaginable in the past.

Qianxuan didn't speak, but clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with reverence.

He could sense that the pressure emanating from the Pavilion Master's Dharma Body was far beyond what his own Sea Abyss Dharma Body could compare to; the difference between the two was like a firefly compared to the bright moon.

The more powerful the Dharma body, the more difficult it is to cultivate. The Ocean Sea Dharma Body alone took him a tremendous amount of effort.

"Lord Pavilion Master, you are truly unfathomable—"

"...

'

Just as everyone was discussing this, the golden-red Dharma body in the sky slowly retracted and then disappeared.

Ye Feng emerged from the meditation room, standing in mid-air, his black robes fluttering, his handsome and refined face exuding an air of authority.

"Let's call it a day."

Ye Feng spoke softly, his voice not loud, yet it resounded like a great bell throughout the heavens and earth.

As if waking from a dream, everyone bowed and dispersed.

Only Qianxuan, Chen Duanjin, and Li Baixing remained in place, clearly having something to report.

"What is it?"

Ye Feng glanced at the three of them and asked.

"Sect Master, I have broken through to the Second Grade Supreme Realm some time ago and have come to report back."

Chen Duanjin was the first to cup his hands in gratitude, his eyes filled with thanks.

His breakthrough from the peak of the first-grade supreme to the second-grade in less than a month was all thanks to the Supreme Heaven Pill bestowed upon him by the Pavilion Master before him.

"It's good that you made a breakthrough."

Ye Feng nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over Chen Duanjin before he nodded in satisfaction.

After his breakthrough, Chen Duanjin's foundation was solid and his spiritual power was abundant. Although he could not compare with those second-grade supreme beings with profound foundations, he was already able to meet the requirements of guarding Tianyin City.

Chen Duanjin's breakthrough is a good omen, signifying that Tianfeng Pavilion's development is on the right track.

He believed that as his strength increased, those second- and third-rank supreme beings who had submitted to him would completely abandon their ambitions and gather under the Heavenly Wind Pavilion.

"From now on, you will have full authority over Tianyin City and the surrounding area. If you encounter any problems that you cannot resolve, you may report to me at any time."

Ye Feng gave the order in a calm voice.

"Your subordinate obeys!"

Chen Duanjin bowed and responded, a surge of loyalty welling up in his heart.

If it were anyone else, a mediocre first-grade supreme being like him wouldn't receive such treatment. The most crucial thing is that this kind of trust is rare.

All things considered, he hadn't been a member of the Heavenly Wind Pavilion for very long, and the Pavilion Master had treated him exceptionally well.

"Sect Master, according to reliable sources, the war of conquest of the Great Luo Heaven Domain will begin in two months."

Qianxuan's expression was solemn as he bowed and reported the news.

"Two months—"

Ye Feng's gaze narrowed slightly, and thoughts raced through his mind.

Two months is neither a long nor a short time.

This is enough for him to complete some arrangements and further consolidate the power of Tianfeng Pavilion.

"Pass down the order to all cities under my command to prepare for battle at any time."

"In addition, be prepared to retreat and shrink at any time."

Ye Feng pondered for a moment, then looked at the three of them.

When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it. As long as the Great Luo Domain Lord Mandala doesn't personally intervene in the war of conquest, everything can be controlled.

The Hundred Battles Domain simply lacks Earthly Sovereign experts, so even if the Three Emperors were to take action, there would be people to stop them.

However, the territory currently occupied by Tianfeng Pavilion is not enough for a fifth-rank supreme being of the King level to make a move.

Furthermore, if they are truly outmatched, Tianfeng Pavilion can temporarily shrink its defenses and relinquish some benefits.

Once his strength increases and the Heavenly Wind Pavilion develops, the entire Hundred Battle Domain, and even the Northern Realm, can be brought under his control. There's no need to compete for anything in this war of conquest.

This campaign against the Great Luo Heavenly Domain wasn't without its benefits; it served as a selection process for the members of the Heavenly Wind Pavilion.

Tianfeng Pavilion was newly established, and after a recent war in the surrounding areas, its forces were a mixed bag, and people's hearts were hard to fathom.

This impending storm will be a perfect test of the loyalty of those under my command.

How many people are currently in the Lingfeng Guard?

Ye Feng's eyes flashed as he asked, "Reporting to the Pavilion Master, after this campaign, the Lingfeng Guard has expanded to a thousand men, all of whom are elites at the Three Heavens Realm or above. Among them, one hundred have overcome the physical body challenge, seventy have overcome the spiritual power challenge, and twenty have overcome the divine soul challenge."

Qianxuan reported respectfully, his voice tinged with pride.

In just one year, Lingfengwei has grown from nothing to its current scale, an achievement that is truly remarkable.

"A thousand people..."

Ye Feng nodded slightly, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his deep black eyes.

"The number of people is still too small. We will draw people from various cities under our command to continue expanding. In two months, the Lingfeng Guard will be expanded to two thousand people."

"With such an army, even if we suffer a defeat in this war against the Great Luo Heaven Domain, the Heavenly Wind Pavilion can still grow rapidly after the war."

Ye Feng pondered for a moment, a resolute glint in his eyes.

Compared to when it was first established, Lingfeng Guard has grown considerably in size, but it is still far from enough.

"yes!"

Upon hearing this, Qianxuan bowed and accepted the order, then hesitated before speaking.

"Sect Master, to expand to two thousand people, the required Supreme Spiritual Liquid..."

"I will allocate 10,000 units of Supreme Spirit Liquid to you for the expansion of the Lingfeng Guard."

Without hesitation, Ye Feng tossed a ring to Qian Xuan.

In this Hundred Battles Domain, the army is the lifeblood of a power. Even if Qian Xuan has not mastered the will to fight, with such a large army, he still has the strength to fight against a second-grade supreme being.

As the strength of the Lingfeng Guards increases, the future of this army is clearly visible.

With the support of resources, Ling Fengwei believed that it wouldn't be long before supreme powerhouses would emerge from among them, including those at the Fusion Heaven Realm.

Even those at the Transformation Realm will not remain in their original state indefinitely.

Although it may be difficult for all members of Lingfeng Guard to break through to the Supreme Realm in the future, Lingfeng Guard is not static and will have some screening and elimination mechanisms.

If Qianxuan still cannot comprehend the fighting spirit after the end of this Great Luo Heavenly Domain campaign, then it will be inappropriate for him to continue to control all the Lingfeng Guards.

However, that's all for later. Right now, we need to build up our strength in preparation for the impending war.

"Thank you, Pavilion Master!"

Qianxuan accepted the mustard seed bracelet, bowed, and clasped his hands in greeting.

With 10,000 drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid, it wouldn't be difficult to expand the Lingfeng Guard to 2,000 people within two months, and there might even be a large surplus.

A person struggling with physical strength can overcome spiritual difficulties by consuming a dozen or so drops of Supreme Spiritual Liquid. With a bit of luck, one or two drops of Supreme Spiritual Liquid can buy items that help people in the Three Heavens Realm break through their bottlenecks. Supreme Spiritual Liquid is the hard currency for cultivators, and Ling Fengwei's treatment is the envy of everyone in the surrounding areas.

"Nothing else for now, you may all leave."

Ye Feng waved his hand, signaling the three of them to step back.

"yes!"

The three bowed and turned to leave.

"In these two months, the cultivation of the Divine Body of the Blazing Fire Sword Body and the cultivation of spiritual power cannot be neglected."

Looking at the damaged hall caused by the cultivation of the Supreme Dharma Body, Ye Feng didn't pay much attention. After muttering something, he raised his hand and waved it to set up a spiritual energy restriction.

Two months is far from enough time for him to break through to the fourth rank of Supreme, but it's certainly enough to improve his spiritual power.

During this time, he can also calmly comprehend and cultivate the supreme divine power of the Blazing Fire Sword Body.

Time flows like water, passing by silently.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

On the stone platform, Ye Feng sat cross-legged quietly, his body surrounded by a surge of seven-colored spiritual energy, and a sharp and unparalleled sword intent emanated from within him.

Before him, several jade bottles floated silently, their mouths open, from which pure and vast supreme spiritual liquid continuously flowed, transforming into torrents of spiritual energy that surged into Ye Feng's body.

However, these supreme spiritual liquids did not flow into the supreme sea, but were guided by Ye Feng to surge into the Li Huo Xuan Jian body that was perched above the supreme sea.

"Fire Sword Slash!"

Above the Supreme Sea, Ye Feng let out a low shout, his hands forming a seal. The thousand-foot-tall golden-red Dharma body within the Supreme Sea suddenly opened its eyes, and two beams of golden light shot out from its eyes.

The Dharma Body held a sword in its left hand, and the dark golden patterns on the sword suddenly lit up, with a terrifying wave of energy capable of scorching the heavens and boiling the seas emanating from the sword.
