"Old man!" Yi Feng excitedly walked to Liu Ran's side. Looking at that young face, Yi Feng felt a warm current flowing through his heart.
Liu Ran looked at Yi Feng and nodded calmly. However, Yi Feng could see the satisfaction in his eyes. This filled Yi Feng's heart with joy. How difficult was it to be acknowledged by Liu Ran?
"Have you found the Devoured Pearl?" Liu Ran went straight to the point and asked Yi Feng.
Yi Feng nodded and said, "I found it the last time I went to the Quiet Cloud Sect. However, the Devoured Pearl was too terrifying. I didn't finish all the preparations until now. That's why I went to the Holy Land to ask for help!"
The old man nodded. His eyes seemed to be filled with thoughts. Clearly, he was thinking of something in the past.
Yi Feng saw that the old man was a little absent-minded and couldn't help but ask, "Old man, are you alright?"
The old man shook his head and said, "I'm thinking of something in the past. However, you're really bold. You actually dared to go and retrieve the Devoured Pearl alone."
Yi Feng chuckled and said, "I obtained a notebook. It just so happens that it's suitable for my strength. You also know how tempting the Devoured Pearl is to Soul Catchers. Even if it's dangerous, I still have to give it a try!"
Liu Ran said faintly, "How confident are you?"
Yi Feng thought for a moment and said, "Fifty percent!"
The old man was stunned. Then, he stared at Yi Feng. Yi Feng also felt a chill in his heart. He thought that fifty percent was too low for the old man? However, he didn't expect the old man's next sentence to completely stun Yi Feng.
"Fifty percent is already very high! Previously, in order to retrieve the Devoured Pearl for Geezer, me, Dean Azure, Geezer, and another expert. The four of us only had a twenty percent chance. If it weren't for Geezer using his entire soul body to wrap around the Devouring Bead in a last-ditch attempt to succeed, the four of us would have been left there for good! "The old man was a little absent-minded, obviously recalling the danger back then.
Yi Feng was so scared that he almost fell to the ground. The old man, Geezer, and Dean Azure were all very powerful people. Even if they worked together, they had less than a 20% chance of success. They had almost paid the price with their lives. Yi Feng was a little nervous. He felt that he had overestimated himself! A 50% success rate might be overestimating himself!
Yi Feng took a deep breath and threw the fear in his heart out of his mind. Since he had already come this far, there was no reason to retreat. Back then, the old man and the others had dared to make a move even with a 20% success rate. There was no reason for him to be any worse than them!
"It's not too late to regret now. If you fail, you will pay with your life. You should understand that with the Spirit Lord Technique that you cultivate, even if you can't become an outstanding Spirit Summoner, you will still become a strong person. There is no need to take this risk! "Liu Ran reminded Yi Feng.
Yi Feng shook his head and said, "Since there is a chance to go further, I have no reason to retreat. Besides, in order to reclaim the Devouring Bead, I have already made so many preparations! "
Liu Ran nodded, without a trace of emotion in his eyes. He said faintly, "You can only rely on yourself to reclaim the Devouring Bead. With your 50% success rate, even if I go, I won't be of much help!"
Yi Feng had studied Geezer and the cave master's notes, so he understood this principle. He nodded and said to Liu Ran, "I want a quiet environment. When I reclaim the Devouring Bead, I don't want anyone to disturb me!"
"Okay!" The old man nodded and agreed without thinking. His tone was full of confidence, as if he didn't know what kind of strong person he would be facing.
Yi Feng had more confidence in the old man than in himself. Seeing the old man agree so readily, a smile appeared on his face. Since the old man had promised, Yi Feng believed that he would not be disturbed.
"Right, why did the Sacred Land send you?" Yi Feng asked, puzzled.
Hearing Yi Feng's words, the old man couldn't help but turn to look at Yi Feng. His voice was full of criticism, "You dare to think that you would set your sights on the Sacred Land. Don't you know that the Sacred Land can't be involved in worldly affairs? Even if it's for you! "
When Yi Feng heard the old man's words, he smiled embarrassedly and said, "I had no choice!"
"Hmph! Remember, you can't set your sights on the Sacred Land in the future. Unless it's you … Forget it, you're still far from that time! "Liu Ran warned.
Yi Feng shrugged helplessly, "Then why are you special in the Sacred Land?"
"Because I am the leader of the heretical sects! I have transcended and integrated into the Sacred Land! "Liu Ran replied.
Yi Feng didn't understand the meaning behind Liu Ran's words and wasn't prepared to understand. Anyway, Liu Ran meant that he could do whatever he wanted in the Sacred Land but he couldn't! Wasn't it just because he had some power?
Yi Feng pursed his lips and ignored Liu Ran's words.
Liu Ran seemed to know what Yi Feng was thinking and replied calmly, "If you had my power, you could do the same with your status as the Demon Emperor. However, you're not qualified to ask the Sacred Land for help at this moment. Even if the five old fellows wanted to help you, they wouldn't leave the mountain to help you. The Sacred Land's ancestral teachings can't be broken just for you! "
Yi Feng didn't understand the ancestral teachings but he understood one thing — there was no way he could ask for the Sacred Land's help in the future!
"Didn't the five old fellows give you a token that allows you to command the entire Sacred Sect once? If you really get into trouble that can't be handled, you can use it. With the Sacred Sect's overall power, it wouldn't be a problem to destroy the Azure Blue Royal Family hundreds of times. Do you need to look for the Sacred Land whenever you have a problem? "Liu Ran said to Yi Feng as if he was angry that Yi Feng had asked the Sacred Land to help him this time.
Yi Feng didn't know what taboo he had committed to make the old man so angry and repeatedly reminded him not to ask the Sacred Land to help him again. Yi Feng vaguely understood what was going on. Most likely, the letter that Yi Feng brought this time had caused the Holy Land to be somewhat dissatisfied.
Yi Feng laughed bitterly. Who knew what kind of rules the Sacred Land had?
"I've thought of using the token but I don't trust the people of the Sacred Sect!" Yi Feng said.
Liu Ran didn't deny it. "In the future, even if you have nowhere else to go, you can't let others go to the Sacred Land on your behalf. If it weren't for the five elders and me protecting Tian Ni, he would have died by now! "
When Yi Feng heard the old man's words, cold sweat broke out on his back. He didn't expect that there would be such serious consequences. Thinking of this, Yi Feng was a little scared. If Tian Ni really died in the Sacred Land, he would live with guilt for the rest of his life.
At this point, Yi Feng understood that the Sacred Land was more mysterious than he had thought. There were a lot of taboos. Yi Feng thought of the five elders' attitude towards him. Yi Feng vaguely felt that he had fallen into their trap.
Yi Feng took a deep breath and pushed the thoughts out of his mind. The most important thing now was to devour the pearl. As for the Sacred Land, he would do it himself in the future.
"Oh right! Do you know what attribute this Devouring Pearl you found is? "
"Water Yin attribute!" Yi Feng replied without thinking. Thinking of the feeling he had with Yu Fei last time, Yi Feng compared it with the cave master's notes. It wasn't difficult to determine the attribute of the Devouring Pearl, as long as one was a three-star Spirit Summoner.
