The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal-Chapter 1060: The Origins of the Four Great Ancient Races

Ocean Star’s surface.

Ye Feng’s figure appeared out of nowhere, gazing at the boundless azure sea, his eyes fixed on the edge of an island.

"So it was here!"

Ye Feng’s body flickered, he entered an undersea channel, and quickly arrived inside the crust where the Heavenly Venerable’s Hall was located.

"Heavenly Venerable’s Hall!"

Looking at the majestic structure of the hall, Ye Feng was quite surprised. He then turned to look at Shi Lei and others, sitting cross-legged on black stone pillars. With a sweep of his Divine Sense, he understood their experiences.

"Black Tortoise Clan, Four Ancient Clans, three checkpoints!"

"So, they came to Ocean Star to undergo a transformation and promotion for Ma Liang’s Brush."

"And the Black Tortoise Clan, originally in slumber, was awakened by the fluctuations during Ma Liang’s Brush’s tribulation."

"So, is this some kind of fate?"

Ye Feng murmured as he looked around.

His appearance immediately caught the attention of an elder of the Black Tortoise Clan, who, along with several members of the clan, flew over.

"Sir, who are you?"

The elder of the Black Tortoise Clan looked at Ye Feng, eyes full of astonishment, for he found that he couldn’t see through him at all.

"Misty Sect’s Sect Master, Ye Feng." Ye Feng pointed at Shi Lei and the others, continuing, "They are all disciples of my sect. I did not expect them to come here."

"So, you are the Misty Sect’s Sect Master!" The elder of the Black Tortoise Clan’s expression shifted slightly, "I am an elder of the Black Tortoise Clan."

Unlike other tribes, the Black Tortoise Clan has only one elder, similar to both a clan leader and great elder, commanding the entire situation.

Apart from the elder, all others are members of the clan.

If there’s a decree, all clan members must obey the elder.

"Four-Turn Quasi-Saint, not bad!" Ye Feng appraised the elder of the Black Tortoise Clan, offering a compliment.

"Sect Master Ye, you flatter me, compared to you, I really am nothing." The elder’s tone shifted, "Speaking of which, does the Misty Sect really have members of the Dragonfolk Clan among its living members?"

Ye Feng nodded, "Yes, there is a disciple in the sect named Long Tianxing, who is indeed a descendant of the Dragonfolk Clan."

As he spoke, Ye Feng stretched out his hand, and an image of Long Tianxing entering his Dragon Transformation Form and True Dragon Form flickered above his palm.

"Hmm, they are indeed true members of the Dragonfolk Clan, but it’s a mystery how they preserved their legacy."

"That, I am not well aware of."

Ye Feng shook his head.

The Dragonfolk Clan, to which Long Tianxing belonged, received the legacy of the Dragon God and were honored as the Son of the Dragon God, which later led them to rename themselves as the Dragonfolk Clan.

In Ye Feng’s view, the legacy, and the Dragon God himself most likely came from the true Dragonfolk, allowing this ancient tribe that should have vanished to successfully continue.

"So, how did the Four Ancient Clans come into existence, and why are they guarding the Heavenly Venerable’s Hall?"

Ye Feng gestured towards the distant majestic hall.

The elder of the Black Tortoise Clan sighed softly, saying:

"Originally, the Four Great Ancient Races started as four individuals who each received a drop of divine beast blood and successfully merged with it, later becoming the Dragonfolk, Winged People, Black Tortoise, and Fierce Tiger, gradually developing into four ancient tribes."

"Our four tribes are entirely different in temperament."

"The Dragonfolk have always been proud, so they ventured to the outside world to forge realms and territories but were later said to have been annihilated."

"The Winged People Tribe is unsociable, preferring to fly alone, and also left Ocean Star, gradually quieting down."

"The Fierce Tiger Tribe loves to battle, so they are either fighting or on their way to fight."

"Only our Black Tortoise Clan remains unworried by worldly concerns, ultimately receiving a calling to come to the underground ocean, becoming guardians of the Heavenly Venerable’s Hall, protecting this place for life."

"Only when it’s time to nurture the next generation do a few clan members travel to the sandy beaches of the outer world’s islands."

"This way of life has continued for many tens of thousands of years."

Hearing this, Ye Feng roughly understood the origins of the Four Great Ancient Races, appearing thoughtful.

"I think, I might know the origin of the Dragonfolk Clan to which Long Tianxing belongs."

"The first-generation Dragonfolk Clan ventured out to open the heavens and the earth but encountered a clan extinction disaster, yet the true blood of the Dragonfolk remained, sealed within the mini Three Thousand Realms in the Shenzhou Continent."

"Moreover, the second-generation Dragon God, who is Long Tianxing’s ancestor, accidentally acquired the true blood of the first-generation Dragonfolk, becoming the brand-new Dragon God."

"So, the inheritance continued in this manner."

Having said this, Ye Feng looked at the Elder of the Black Tortoise Clan, "What do you think?"

"It should be!" After hearing this analysis, the Elder of the Black Tortoise Clan pondered for a moment and also felt that this was very likely the case.

"I wonder how much longer they will need." At this time, Ye Feng looked at Shi Lei and the other four disciples sitting cross-legged on the black stone column and started muttering.

"Sect Master Ye, if you are interested, you could also try, and if you can pass through the three checkpoints, you might just be able to enter the legendary Heavenly Venerable’s Hall."

The Elder of the Black Tortoise Clan suggested.

"That’s fine, but I would like to wait," Ye Feng said to the Elder of the Black Tortoise Clan, asking, "As guardians of the Heavenly Venerable’s Hall, have the Black Tortoise Clan ever entered it?"

"No, we are just guardians; we really don’t qualify to enter the Heavenly Venerable’s Hall. However, the young ones in our clan have participated in the three-checkpoint assessment, yet they all invariably failed at the final challenge and could not enter the Heavenly Venerable’s Hall."

The Elder of the Black Tortoise Clan immediately shook his head.

Even if they wanted to enter the Heavenly Venerable’s Hall as guardians, they needed to pass the assessment.

"I see," Ye Feng nodded and looked at the Heavenly Venerable’s Hall, employing the Eye of Insight.

[Name: Heavenly Venerable’s Hall]

[Grade: None]

[Function: Unknown]

[Note: Possesses the three checkpoints of Heart Demon, Wisdom, and Century Mortalization. If one can smoothly pass through the challenges and trigger an opportunity, one may obtain one of the Nine Great Heavenly Venerable Divine Abilities, "Hand of Myriad Transformations", which has the powerful ability to alter reality]

Seeing this, Ye Feng’s breath hitched.

So, the Heavenly Venerable’s Hall harbored one of the Nine Great Heavenly Venerable Secret Arts, the "Hand of Myriad Transformations", which could alter reality!

Thinking about this ability, Ye Feng’s eyes flickered, looking at Ma Liang’s Brush placed on Shi Lei’s lap.

This Sacred Arms also had the ability to alter reality.

So, if he could pass through the three checkpoints and trigger an opportunity, acquiring the "Hand of Myriad Transformations", couldn’t he use it to transform Ma Liang’s Brush, making it stronger?

The more he thought about it, the more Ye Feng wanted to tackle the challenge.

"Sect Master Ye, Sect Master Ye?"

Suddenly, the Elder of the Black Tortoise Clan’s voice rang by his ears, pulling Ye Feng out of his thoughts.

"Hm?" Ye Feng came to his senses and looked at the Elder of the Black Tortoise Clan, "What happened?"

The Elder of the Black Tortoise Clan was embarrassed and said, "Nothing, I just wanted to ask you if you have any thoughts about participating in the assessment now."

"Let us wait a while!" Ye Feng shook his head.

The disciples were still undergoing the assessment; he wanted to wait a bit longer to see if Shi Lei, Shen Yu, Han Yonghui, and Zhang Tianyuan could pass the ultimate assessment.

After they came out, he could also casually ask them what they experienced, which would better prepare him to face the upcoming three-checkpoint assessment.

"Alright!"

The Elder of the Black Tortoise Clan could only hold his tongue.

...

Atop the black stone column.

Shi Lei sat cross-legged, his face showing a complex mix of anxiety, anger, disappointment, and fear, as if he was experiencing some significant event.

In the world of consciousness.

Shi Lei stood on the summit of Misty Peak, staring at the Old Sect Leader who pierced him with his talons, his expression quite complicated.

"You really are my Heart Demon!"

"The Old Sect Leader treated me like his son, he would never do such a thing to me, so my judgment is not wrong!"

Shi Lei yelled at the Heart Demon before him.

Hearing this, the Old Sect Leader’s face gradually changed, from initially benevolent to now cold.
