Everyone was waiting for Ye Feng to emerge from the Life and Death Pavilion, believing he had been slain by the Daoist School ancestor.

However, that was not the case. Ye Feng’s aura was rapidly strengthening, his cultivation continually stabilizing, his True Essence becoming purer. Within just an hour, Ye Feng’s cultivation was impressively stable, ready for a breakthrough.

A smile appeared at the corner of Ye Feng’s mouth as he thought to himself: The Peace of Mind Pill seems effective; I should refine more in the future.

Ye Feng could indeed refine the Peace of Mind Pill, and as his cultivation rose, each time he ascended a level, the time needed to stabilize his foundation lengthened. Ye Feng estimated that if he advanced to mid-stage Entering Dao, fully stabilizing his cultivation for further elevation would take at least a year, but with the Peace of Mind Pill, this time could be greatly reduced.

A flash of light appeared before Ye Feng, and then one hundred thousand superior Daoist Crystals materialized.

At this moment, if Ye Feng absorbed these hundred thousand Daoist Crystals, he could effortlessly advance his cultivation to mid-stage Entering Dao.

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Feng activated his Slaughter Heaven battle method, and instantly, endless energy flowed.

Ye Feng’s whole being transformed into a human-shaped black hole, madly absorbing the power of those superior Daoist Crystals.

Soon, vast spiritual energy vortexes appeared above Ye Feng’s head, with the pure forces within the crystals constantly entering his body, becoming a part of him, accumulating more and more power.

The superior Daoist Crystals were frantically consumed, while Ye Feng appeared as a bottomless pit, unafraid of being overwhelmed by their energy. Vortexes of spiritual energy above his head continued to increase, rising faster and faster.

The Daoist Crystals incessantly turned to powder—within less than half a day, Ye Feng had absorbed twenty thousand superior Daoist Crystals.

Witnessing this, Ning Tianyu, the Daoist School ancestor, revealed shock in his eyes, thinking: "Worthy of being a Supreme Daoist God! To possess such a terrifying constitution that can absorb so many Daoist Crystals in such a short time!"

Normally, even if a cultivator’s cultivation was stable and their Dao comprehension sufficient, with enough Daoist Crystals, they still could not raise their cultivation quickly because each Martial Artist has a limit to how many Daoist Crystals they can absorb at once. Absorbing too many would result in their bodies failing, leading to death by explosion.

Normal early-stage Entering Dao cultivators could absorb a maximum of a hundred superior Daoist Crystals at a time and would need a lengthy rest before continuing. Even when Ning Tianyu was at early-stage Entering Dao, he could absorb at most a thousand superior Daoist Crystals in one session.

He would have to rest for half a month before he could continue absorbing the energy of Daoist Crystals for cultivation. But now Ye Feng seemed like a bottomless pit, having absorbed twenty thousand Daoist Crystals without showing any signs of reaching his limit.

Ye Feng appeared like a massive bottomless pit, and no matter how many Daoist Crystals were absorbed, he couldn’t be filled.

Ning Tianyu sighed inwardly: "Worthy of being a Supreme Daoist God!" Although Ye Feng’s resource consumption for breakthroughs was hundreds or thousands of times that of normal cultivators, as long as resources kept up, Ye Feng’s cultivation speed far surpassed that of regular Martial Artists!

Time quickly passed, and three days elapsed. The people in the Daoist School felt very puzzled.

Ye Feng had been inside the Life and Death Pavilion for three days, yet he hadn’t emerged.

Normally, those who entered the Life and Death Pavilion lasted no more than half a day before dying.

Once deceased, their bodies would be transported out of the Life and Death Pavilion, but now, after three days, Ye Feng still hadn’t emerged, which was an unprecedented occurrence in the Daoist School’s history.

Now, Ye Feng had remained in the Life and Death Pavilion for three full days without appearing, leaving everyone very perplexed.

At the same time, inside the Life and Death Pavilion, the hundred thousand superior Daoist Crystals in front of Ye Feng had turned to powder.

At this moment, Ye Feng’s power reached saturation; without hesitation, Ye Feng operated his cultivation method and directly broke through, propelling his power towards the bottleneck. Suddenly, with a muffled sound, an immensely strong wave of energy burst from Ye Feng, which Ning Tianyu contained in the Life and Death Pavilion, preventing it from spreading out.

Ye Feng’s bottleneck instantly fractured into countless pieces, shattered in a split second, and Ye Feng’s power quickly rose, his momentum soaring.

In mere moments, Ye Feng easily broke through the bottleneck, advancing his cultivation from early-stage to mid-stage Entering Dao, and clearly felt his power had multiplied!

A faint smile appeared on Ye Feng’s lips; with his mid-stage Entering Dao cultivation, Ye Feng’s power was already extremely formidable.

At this moment, even without unleashing his Destruction Dao Body’s power, Ye Feng could easily instantly defeat mid-stage Great Perfection powerhouses. If Ye Feng unleashed everything, even without external assistance, he could easily defeat or even kill early-stage Asking experts, reaching an incredible level.

Simultaneously, Ye Feng sighed internally, noting that as his cultivation rose, breakthroughs became increasingly difficult.

Advancing from early-stage to mid-stage Entering Dao had cost Ye Feng one hundred thousand superior Daoist Crystals. If he wanted to advance from mid-stage to late-stage, it would take one million superior Daoist Crystals, and Ye Feng currently had only about four hundred thousand.

Not only this, Ye Feng would need at least a year to fully stabilize his foundation.

In other words, if Ye Feng wanted to swiftly raise his cultivation, he would need at least three Peace of Mind Pills and one million superior Daoist Crystals. Ye Feng stood up, looking at Ning Tianyu: "Senior, I wish to leave now!"

Ning Tianyu nodded: "Ye Feng, my young friend, would you like me to help clear obstacles for you?"

Ye Feng shook his head: "No need, if I encounter someone I can’t defeat, then you can step in. Besides, I want to see just how strong I am now!" With those words, Ye Feng walked towards the Life and Death Pavilion’s exit...
