The leader of the Phoenixes was only one of the descendants of the True Phoenixes. He wasn't even a Phoenix, just a male Phoenix. His son, Yuan Feng, was even younger in terms of seniority. But ability couldn't be judged by seniority alone.
For example, the Kun he gave birth to created the Kun Devourer Realm, which was on par with the Phoenix Perch Realm. Yuan Feng became much stronger than his father and left the Phoenix Realm a long time ago. As for whether he went to the Phoenix Perch Realm, no one knew.
After hearing this, Du Feng couldn't help but feel excited. There were so many experts, but most of them didn't live in this world. He suddenly thought of a question. Since Du Tulong had the Myriad Beasts Garden, did that mean he had his own world? If that was the case, wouldn't he be similar to the True Dragon and True Phoenix?
"I'm pursuing that realm, but I haven't reached that level yet."
Du Tulong was honest. He was indeed pursuing that realm. Including the opening of the Myriad Beasts Garden to the cultivators in the Lower Realm to use the various War Beasts, he was actually giving himself more energy. When the cultivators were weak in the Lower Realm, they did need War Beasts to improve themselves. And as the War Beasts grew, he was actually benefiting too.
When the cultivators reached the Heaven Realm, which was the Middle Realm, they didn't rely so much on War Beasts. When they reached the Immortal Realm, they didn't need War Beasts at all. If Tengu created ten or twenty clones to go out and collect energy. Then Du Tulong created tens of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions of clones to go out and collect energy.
But his method of gathering energy was more dispersed, so he collected less each time, and the uncertainty was greater. Because once the cultivators died, the War Beasts would turn into monsters and escape. If they couldn't devour them in time, the clone would be useless and contribute to the monsters.
Du Feng seemed to understand something. If a human cultivator ascended to the Immortal Realm, the War Beasts he carried would automatically return to Du Tulong. No wonder no one used War Beasts to fight in the Immortal Realm. Only he could use the Innate Skills of a bunch of War Beasts. Moreover, ever since he arrived in the God World, Du Tulong's strength had grown especially rapidly.
The reason was that he had recovered a lot of energy. If this guy hadn't let it slip today, I really wouldn't have known that he had played such a big game of chess.
"Alright, since you've seen through me, I have nothing else to say."
Du Tulong admitted that he was playing a very big game of chess. The stakes were bigger than those of the Tengu and the Ghost Servant, and the risk was also higher. Therefore, he also found a back-up for himself, and that was Du Feng. If he and Du Feng were to be so closely linked, even if he did not become a Sage, he could also bask in the glory of becoming a Quasi-Sage.
On top of that, his original Myriad Beast Garden was very intense, so he could also create a Myriad Beast Realm. In that case, he would have the Coiled Dragon Realm, the Phoenix Perch Realm, and the Kun Devouring Realm. His efforts would not have been in vain. At the very least, he could build a world that truly belonged to him in the crevice outside this layer of the universe. Even if this layer of the universe perished, his world would not perish.
To put it bluntly, even if he traveled to different planes of the universe, it would not be as good as having his own world. After all, if he traveled to other planes of the universe, he would still have to rely on the environment there to survive. If that place was destroyed, he would have to go to another one. This was similar to the difference between renting a house and having one's own house.
Even if he was in the Quasi-Sage Realm, if the place he liked was also liked by a Quasi-Sage, they might end up fighting. If a Saint took a liking to him, he might be chased out by that Saint. But it was different with his own world. For example, although the True Dragon and True Phoenix were not Sages, they would be extremely powerful in their own world. With the support of all the living beings in the world, even Sages would not dare to invade.
Du Tulong had the same idea. Even if he could not become a Sage, at least he could become similar to the True Dragon and True Phoenix, and his strength would be comparable to a Sage.
Of course, he could not completely give up on the opportunity to become a Sage. Relying on Du Feng was only one of the stakes. If he became a Sage, Du Feng could also benefit from him. Du Feng could understand this. After all, no one would give up the opportunity to become a Sage. He would do the same if he was in Du Feng's shoes.
As for who could become a Sage first in this layer of the universe, it would depend on one's ability and luck.
"Sure, if you become a Saint, you can also make me a Quasi-Saint."
Du Feng was open-minded. Back then, Du Tulong had said that if he became a Sage, he would make him a Quasi-Sage. Now, he was using these words.
"If you want to become a Quasi-Sage, you have to become a Quasi-Sage first."
Alright, Du Tulong was speaking the truth. If he wanted to become a Quasi-Sage like a Sage, the prerequisite was that he had to have a Quasi-Sage body.
"Then make me a Quasi-Sage first."
Du Feng was quite open-minded. If he hadn't become a half-step Saint by then, he'd just be a half-step Saint first and then continue to cultivate. Unexpectedly, Du Tulong replied with another sentence.
"Equivalent to a Quasi-Sage, you have to reach the peak of the Divine Emperor Realm first."
That's right, this was the truth. Even if it was equivalent to a Quasi-Sage, it was not that easy. Not only did he have to reach the peak of the Divine General Realm Level Nine Cultivation, he also had to be very strong. To put it bluntly, he had to be at the level of an experienced Divine Emperor.
Currently, Du Feng was only at the Divine General Realm Level Seven Cultivation. There was still a long way to go before he reached the peak of the Divine General Realm Level Nine. If Du Tulong really became a Sage now, he could at most raise his Cultivation by two levels. He would not be able to become a Quasi-Sage.
"Alright, I understand. I can't rely on you for this. I'll do it myself."
Du Feng chuckled. He did not feel discouraged at all because he was very confident in himself. Moreover, he also believed that it would not be that easy for Du Tulong to become a Sage. If it was that easy for him to become a Sage, why would he stay in his body and not leave? When it came to cultivation, he was still the most reliable.
Since the ghost servant had gone to get the materials, he might as well make use of the time to cultivate. Now that he had taken over the old man's bookstore, he should properly organize the books. Perhaps he would be able to organize some good stuff. If there was a chance, he really wanted to go to the Coiling Dragon Realm to take a look.
After all, the Coiling Dragon Realm was a Divine Realm that was independent of this layer of the universe. In a sense, it was of a higher level than the Divine Realm. No matter how powerful the Divine Realm was, it still depended on this layer of the universe to survive. Perhaps the members of the Dragons would advance faster in the Coiling Dragon Realm. Otherwise, the old man in the bookstore would not have gone to the trouble of going there.
Of course, there was also a possibility that the old man came from the Coiling Dragon Realm. It was the same reason why the old man from the Dragon Realm came to the Heavenly Realm to open a bookstore.
