Chapter 467: Chapter 249: The Dao of All People, Feng Hua’s Pursuit

Ji Qingyue listened, feeling a surge of longing. So she too had the potential for a Martial King, but was born in the Wilderness.

"The martial arts outside are so brilliant, aren’t all the demon fiends killed?" Ji Qingyue showed a look of curiosity.

It was also her first time hearing about the outside world, and she was eager to know more.

Feng Hua shook her head: "No, the human race outside is strong, but the demon fiends are even more terrifying. The impact of the Dao Collapse affects not only the human race; the demon fiends in the wilderness are also affected by its aftermath, and they are even more greatly affected.

For example, the Five-Colored Demon Bull, martial artists from your wilderness think that the name comes because their tribe can at least condense the Five-Colored Golden Body, but that’s actually wrong.

In the outside world, the real origin of the name Five-Colored Demon Bull is because this tribe has an incredibly powerful innate divine ability called the Five-Colored Divine Light, which can penetrate everything in heaven and earth, hence the name Five-Colored Demon Bull.

Now, the Five-Colored Demon Bulls in the wilderness aren’t even aware of this divine ability.

And the Dragon-Horned Deer, the reason this demon is named so isn’t because their horns resemble dragon horns, but because their antlers truly possess the terrifying power of dragon horns.

The demon fiends in the Land of Dao Collapse have their bloodline and innate abilities suppressed to extremely low levels, and here, since it once was the place where Qi Daozhen reached his Dao, the powerful demon fiends were long ago slain by him, resulting in incomplete demon inheritance!"

Ji Qingyue shook her head and sighed.

She thought that with the martial arts being so prosperous outside, the human race would have wiped out all demon fiends, or at least suppressed them. To her surprise, the word was that the demon fiends outside are even more terrifying.

Wei Fan looked at Feng Hua: "If Qi Daozhen was so strong, how did he die? Was it because his lifespan was exhausted or was he killed by someone stronger?"

He wasn’t too concerned about whether the demon fiends outside were strong, but rather curious about the cause of Qi Daozhen’s death.

The unparalleled expert who cultivated the Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations to the seventh level should have no problem living for tens of thousands of years, although it wasn’t said that he was immortal. And from Feng Hua’s tone, Qi Daozhen didn’t die from exhaustion of his lifespan!

Feng Hua shook her head: "Almost no one knows exactly how he died outside. Some say he was ambushed and killed by a powerful demon while undergoing the eighth transformation of the Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations.

Others say he failed the eighth transformation, and his primordial spirit collapsed and he died.

This happened ten thousand years ago and few people knew how he died even then, and now there are even fewer who know.

Only when his Dao suddenly manifested and began to collapse did people realize he had already died."

Wei Fan speculated it was probably the latter.

After all, for a powerhouse like Qi Daozhen, being assassinated silently and without a trace is impossible. Dying during the process of primordial spirit transformation seems relatively reasonable.

He himself was cultivating the Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations and naturally knew that during the process of primordial spirit transformation, there were indeed certain risks.

Ji Qingyue asked: "Then how many more years will Qi Daozhen’s Dao Collapse continue to affect the Wilderness?"

That is the main issue. If Qi Daozhen’s Dao Collapse continues, then the martial dao of the Wilderness will always be incomplete.

The aftermath of the Dao Collapse not only acts as a cage blocking the Wilderness from the outside world, but also isolates various Daos of heaven and earth. If it lasts for a few hundred years, it’s fine, but if it continues for a few thousand years, she would have no hope of reaching the Martial King realm in her lifetime.

Upon hearing this, Feng Hua lightly furrowed her brow: "This is hard to say. Dao Collapse doesn’t happen frequently, and not every strong person’s death results in a Dao Collapse. Only when some special martial dao powerhouses die does a Dao Collapse happen.

Dao Collapse generally lasts from ten thousand to twenty thousand years, but before I came here, an elder said the Wilderness’s Dao Collapse might continue for another one to two thousand years, making it hard to determine precisely.

Unfortunately, the Celestial Desolation Empire’s Saint Master failed two thousand years ago; otherwise, the Dao Collapse would have ended by now."

Ji Qingyue frowned. One to two thousand years is an uncertain timeframe. Although some Martial Venerable powerhouses can live for over a thousand years, if she had to wait until she was a thousand years old for the Dao Collapse to disappear, by then her qi blood would have declined, leaving her without the energy to strive for the Martial King realm.

If the Dao Collapse takes another two thousand years to vanish, she might already be dead.

Wei Fan squinted: "Do you mean, Miss Fenghua, that the Saint Master of the Celestial Desolation Empire two thousand years ago wanted to solve the Dao Collapse problem?"

Feng Hua nodded: "I am not sure if he wanted to solve the Dao Collapse, but if the Celestial Desolation Empire’s Lord could have subdued the demon fiends and united the Wilderness, the Dao Collapse issue would have naturally been resolved.

I just mentioned that Dao Collapse only occurs when certain special martial dao powerhouses die.

After these special powerhouses die, because no one inherits their Dao, it begins to collapse. If someone could inherit their Dao, not only would the Dao Collapse disappear, but they would also ascend rapidly, becoming one of the era’s powerhouses.

Qi Daozhen’s Dao back in the day was the Way of the People. If the Celestial Desolation Empire’s Lord had subdued the demon fiends and united the Wilderness, he would have naturally been revered by the people and inherited Qi Daozhen’s Dao!

I suspect that the Demon Saint of the Profound Crane Sect and the Martial Saint of the Guangling Sect knew this, which is why they perished together to stop the Celestial Desolation Empire’s Saint Master."

This indeed explains why Wei Hong, the Martial Saint of Guangling Sect, and the Martial Saint of the Profound Crane Sect, fought to the death to stop the Celestial Desolation Empire’s Saint Master from uniting the Wilderness, as none of them wanted to see the Celestial Desolation Empire’s Saint Master inherit Qi Daozhen’s Dao.

The secrets unknown to others, even if the powerhouses at the Martial Saint level do not know them, they can comprehend some things. Perhaps these three Saint-level masters are survivors from the time when the Dao collapse first appeared.

"Although he failed, it was not all in vain. At the very least, his confrontation with the other two Saint-level powerhouses accelerated the Dao collapse. Otherwise, it would have been extended for thousands more years.

You might not know this, but it was precisely because that battle influenced the momentum of the Dao collapse that the Demon Hunter Organization took the opportunity to send experts into the wilderness to help the Human Race resist the Demon Fiends!"

Wei Fan sat in silence, digesting the news brought by Feng Hua.

Ji Qingyue also remained silent, completely unprepared for the fact that the Battle of the Fallen Saint two thousand years ago contained so much.

After a while, Wei Fan looked at Feng Hua with blazing eyes: "What Miss Fenghua says, entering the wilderness from the outside is extremely difficult; even Martial King powerhouses would be crushed by the aftermath of the Dao collapse. Since you could come in, you must have mastered a special method or had access to a special passage.

The matter you seek, I will do my utmost to achieve it. If I fail, I will say nothing. But if, by chance, I succeed, I hope you can share with me the method to leave the wilderness."

Since Feng Hua could enter, she could naturally leave. Otherwise, she would have to be out of her mind to plunge headfirst into the wilderness.

Ji Qingyue also looked at Feng Hua with eager eyes, naturally wanting to leave the wilderness and see the true world outside.

Feng Hua smiled gracefully: "This is exactly the condition I am offering you!"

This was precisely the purpose of her saying so much to Wei Fan. If she had directly asked at the start for him to do something, and she would take him out of the wilderness, it would be natural for Wei Fan to think she was crazy.

By showing Wei Fan the splendor of the outside world and making him aware of the difficulties in leaving here, the preciousness of the reward she offered immediately became apparent.

Previously, Wei Fan was still hesitant, but now he immediately pledged to do his utmost.

Because after hearing so much, as long as Wei Fan still had some ambition, he wouldn’t continue to hide in this wilderness.

In ten thousand years, only three Saint-level masters have been born here, and they might not even have been born after the Dao collapse. It’s not that breaking through to Martial Saint is impossible here, but the difficulty might be a thousandfold greater.

How could a demon-like talent like Wei Fan be content to linger in the wilderness?

Of course, it wasn’t that she couldn’t offer other things tempting enough for Wei Fan, but she also wanted to bring this demon-like talent out of the wilderness. An Eighth Forged Martial Venerable under eighteen was rare even in the outside world.

Such a talent, once beyond the wilderness, would surely stir up storms and shine with astonishing brilliance. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Such a demon-like talent should go out and compete with the true geniuses, suppress those mythical-level demons, rather than be delayed or even obliterated by this incomplete Martial Dao land of the Dao collapse.

"However, my way of coming and going here is not by mastering any secret technique or having any special passage, but by using a secret treasure from my sect, which can take one person out!"

She spoke frankly about the method.

Upon hearing this, Wei Fan frowned. He thought it was some method or special passage he could master to take some friends and leave this prison.

It seems that’s not possible!

Ji Qingyue also looked disappointed, her expression even turning gloomy.

Wei Fan was about to leave with Feng Hua, but she had to remain forever in this land of Dao collapse.

"Can this secret treasure be used more than once?" Wei Fan asked.

If it could be used repeatedly, it would be possible to take a group of friends. However, judging by Feng Hua’s tone, it seems it can only be used once; otherwise, she wouldn’t have presented the method of leaving the wilderness as so precious.

Feng Hua nodded gently: "Yes!"

She wasn’t foolish; the fact that Wei Fan asked such a question clearly indicated his desire to take others with him. She continued, "If you wish to take others out, you can find a way once you’re outside. Although the momentum of the Dao collapse is terrifying, after ten thousand years of abatement and the influence of the Battle of the Fallen Saint, entering here is no longer as difficult as reaching the sky.

Moreover, if you’re willing to pay the price, I can also ask my sect’s experts to help refine more of these secret treasures for you!"

Wei Fan was elated; though there was no way in the wilderness, it didn’t mean there was no way in the outside world. The reason no one came to the wilderness wasn’t that the outside world was utterly helpless against the momentum of the Dao collapse, but because to the outside, this was a land of incomplete Martial Dao, and they weren’t willing to expend vast efforts to come to the wilderness.

Just like people living in the Capital City, would they spend a large amount of money just to take a look at the deep mountains and forests?

"Then, Miss Fenghua, what do you want me to do? Please, let it be known!"

However, regardless of what was said, it was still important to clarify what Feng Hua wanted. Feng Hua was certainly a Martial King powerhouse, and he was curious about what kind of matter someone like her couldn’t accomplish.

Feng Hua didn’t seem like the kind of crazy person who would spend a lot of money just to take a look at the deep mountains and forests. She must have had a purpose in coming to the wilderness.

Feng Hua said softly: "Actually, I just want you to go with me to a place!"
