Chapter 250 Fei Peng is almost broken

“We have an ancient saying in the Li Realm.”

“When a soldier on campaign lightly steps his horse, a mountain fire erupts a thousand miles away.”

“Could it be that some unintentional action of mine caused the future to change drastically?”

Ye Feipeng frowned, carefully recalling every single detail since his Rebirth.

He tried to find the root of the anomaly.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard he racked his brain, he couldn't come up with even one remotely plausible explanation.

After half a day, he finally gave up in frustration.

“No matter what, the future in my memory is no longer accurate.”

“It can only be used as a reference; it cannot be fully trusted.”

“Then, what I should be most concerned about is whether Crimson Flame Burning Sea will still happen? And will the Immortal Lords join forces to slay Crimson Flame as scheduled?”

The fatty exerted all his strength, performing a rough deduction.

After a long while, he came to a conclusion.

“Crimson Flame Burning Sea should still happen.”

“But in the previous life, the several Soul Transformation Cultivators of Congyun Sea joining forces was likely because Zhang Haobo informed Wanxian Island in advance.”

“Riding the wind to Wanxian, facing an Immortal Lord directly…”

Ye Feipeng shivered, his face showing difficulty.

“I can't do it!”

“Let me think, at that time, only two of those who participated in the encirclement were native Cultivators of Wanxian Island; the rest were temporary reinforcements.”

“If there are only two people, caught off guard facing Crimson Flame directly…”

The fatty's face turned pale.

“It's simply impossible to be evenly matched.”

“Doesn't that mean all my calculations were for naught?”

His face alternated between light and shadow, and after a long time, a hint of ruthlessness appeared in Ye Feipeng's eyes.

“No, I must find a way to spread the news that Crimson Flame is about to burn the sea.”

“Even if I make this matter known to everyone…”

Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat, and Ye Feipeng quickly shook his head.

“No, no.”

“It's too dangerous. If someone deduces that I'm behind this, wouldn't the outcome be worse than death?”

After struggling for most of the day, Ye Feipeng, still feeling helpless, couldn't help but feel a bit dejected.

Feeling vexed, he left the Barren Island, wandering aimlessly while pondering countermeasures.

In a trance, he unknowingly arrived at some sea area.

A magnificent and spectacular scene before his eyes startled him from his contemplation.

He saw that the sun in the sky had disappeared.

In its place was a giant eye suspended in the center of the sky.

The giant eye stared at the ocean below.

Wherever its gaze reached, the seawater, islands, and living beings were all covered in a layer of silver light.

Then, under the effect of the silver light, they seemed to be pressed alive into a painting.

They transformed into illusory, flat images, and along with the silver light, flew into the giant eye in the sky.

“This is…”

Breaking out in a cold sweat, Ye Feipeng suddenly sobered up.

“Extracting the heaven and earth spirit! A Nascent Soul cultivator is advancing to Soul Transformation!”

Although this was Ye Feipeng's first time witnessing it personally.

The scene before him was almost identical to the description in books: “Mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas, everything in the world, all return to the Grotto-Heaven!”

Ye Feipeng held his breath and quietly retreated.

Cultivators who are undergoing Breakthrough are extremely sensitive.

If he were mistaken for having malicious intentions and then casually killed.

That would truly be an unjust death.

Silently praying that the other party wouldn't discover him, Ye Feipeng used the fastest speed he had ever achieved, wanting to get away from this dangerous sea area.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned.

The giant eye in the sky moved slightly.

Its gaze immediately locked onto Ye Feipeng.

Ye Feipeng, who was riding the wind and waves, was instantly frozen in place, unable to move.

He was enveloped in a layer of silver light.

The next moment, he was about to be completely compressed and absorbed by the Grotto-Heaven.

Just then, a dazzling blue light emerged from his body, pushing away the silver light.

“Oh?”

A figure instantly appeared in front of Ye Feipeng.

His hair was snow-white, and his dark eyes seemed to contain infinite wisdom.

“Zhang Zhiliang?!” The moment he saw this person, Ye Feipeng's mind was greatly shaken.

Because he knew this person; it was the Great Master of Formations who, several years later, would jointly besiege Crimson Flame with several Immortal Lords.

“Shouldn't he be a Nascent Soul cultivator? How could he be about to Breakthrough to Soul Transformation?”

Zhang Zhiliang slowly extended his hand and drew in a wisp of blue light.

Silver light flashed, and the blue light was then decomposed inch by inch.

“An oddity of the earth?”

A trace of surprise flashed in Zhang Zhiliang's eyes, and he looked at this small Foundation Establishment cultivator with interest.

“You seem to know me?”

Before the terrified Ye Feipeng could answer.

Zhang Zhiliang's eyes showed no emotion as he lightly tapped his glabella.

In Ye Feipeng's pupils, strands of images immediately appeared.

A great sun hung in the sky, illuminating the newly appeared heaven and earth spirit.

Five Immortal Lords, and he, Zhang Zhiliang, jointly fighting Crimson Flame.

Congyun Twenty-Eight Swords, Golden Core slaying the Dao.

…

The giant eye in the sky instantly opened wide in anger.

There was no change in his facial expression, but his slightly trembling body indicated Zhang Zhiliang's extreme inner turmoil at this moment.

“What is this?”

He stared intently at the continuously twitching Ye Feipeng, and with another finger, he tried to extract more things from his mind.

At the critical moment of life and death, an endless blue light surged from Ye Feipeng's chest, instantly enveloping him.

Zhang Zhiliang's face changed, and he was about to mobilize the power of the Grotto-Heaven to suppress the blue light.

Suddenly, the Congyun Sea below seemed to violently surge and tremble.

The waves roared, and the control of the Grotto-Heaven Dharma Domain inadvertently revealed a flaw.

The blue light, carrying Ye Feipeng, instantly moved far away, escaping to an unknown destination.

Only Zhang Zhiliang remained, standing blankly in place.

After a long time, he seemed to awaken from a dream.

“A Rebirth person?”

“heaven and earth spirit?”

The Dharma Eye Grotto-Heaven disappeared from the sky, and the sun reappeared high above.

The world returned to normal.

But on Zhang Zhiliang's body, there seemed to be a persistent shadow that could not be dispelled.

“Dao…”

“Dao…”

He kept repeating, his eyes shining with an inexplicable divine light.

…

Inside the tianxuan mirror.

Li Fan, who had been awakened from his Cultivation and witnessed all of this, stroked his chin.

Ye Feipeng wandering around and accidentally encountering Zhang Zhiliang, who was undergoing Breakthrough, was something Li Fan had not expected.

The little fatty was too guilty, and Zhang Zhiliang noticed the anomaly.

Furthermore, the other party used a soul-searching technique to dig out the secrets in his mind.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, the cang hai pearl erupted and saved his life.

Ye Feipeng seemed to have suffered severe mental trauma and fell into a deep sleep.

What puzzled Li Fan was that despite this anomaly, Ye Feipeng's fate not only did not suffer a blow.

Instead, it underwent an even more mysterious change.

Even the current Li Fan could not see through it.

“Interesting.”

“It seems the cang hai pearl is determined to protect Ye Feipeng.”

“Could it be that there are other hidden secrets on him that I haven't noticed?”

“And Zhang Zhiliang, having learned in advance that Crimson Flame would descend, and his strength having advanced to Soul Transformation, what will he do?”

“Where will Crimson Flame Burning Sea in this life lead…”

“It's truly exciting.”

Li Fan let out a low laugh.

Still one chapter short, I'm currently on a business trip and it's not very convenient.
