490. Defeating Du Yuan, Gaining Another Saber World Clue!

Zeng Yushu witnessed the scene before him, almost in disbelief. His master, Du Yuan, had actually been defeated? In his memory, Master Du Yuan had seldom faced defeat, even against other Martial Gods.

But now, he had not only been defeated but also openly admitted his loss. Du Yuan looked at Lin Fei with a complex expression. His acceptance of defeat was wholehearted. The reason was simple: He had utilized his law, yet Lin Fei had not.

The difference between a Martial God using a law and not was immense. Yet, even without employing any law, Lin Fei had emerged victorious. Though Du Yuan was not injured, what was the point of continuing the fight? If Lin Fei had actually employed his law, Du Yuan's defeat would have been even more embarrassing.

"This matter ends here," declared Du Yuan. "From now on, the Zeng family will not trouble Daoist Lin over this matter. Let's go!"

Du Yuan was true to his word. Zeng Yushu could no longer use the secret realm to trouble Lin Fei. Thus, the issue concluded with Du Yuan's defeat.

"Hold on a moment, daoist fellow!"

Lin Fei suddenly called out to Du Yuan.

"Hmm? What is it, daoist fellow?"

Du Yuan narrowed his eyes, fixating on Lin Fei. He had already conceded defeat. What more did Lin Fei want?

"Do you know of any unclaimed Saber Worlds in the Unity faction? Similar to the one left by the Zeng family, transformed into a secret realm. If so, provide a clue. I will be most grateful!"

"You still need Saber Worlds?"

Du Yuan was surprised that Lin Fei still sought Saber Worlds. And he was eyeing those within the Unity faction, which like the Great Dream Sect, was under the auspices of a Martial Ancestor.

However, Lin Fei was a Martial God himself. As long as he didn't violate the rules of the Unity faction, the Martial Ancestor wouldn't interfere, not even the True Monarch would.

Among martial artists, competition and even plundering were common. If no one died, it wasn't considered a serious matter. Still, this approach would offend many Martial Gods. Lin Fei seemed prepared to pay any price.

However, this presented an opportunity. A Martial God like Lin Fei, with such a promising future and already possessing astonishing strength, posed a serious threat in a life-or-death battle. Should Lin Fei utilize his laws, even Du Yuan might fall to him. Thus, Lin Fei's promise of a "significant reward" was not to be taken lightly.

"If we're talking about Saber Worlds, I do know of some clues," Du Yuan said with a half-smile. "But can you provide what I would ask for?"

"Anything but the origin of the world," Lin Fei replied, aware that Du Yuan most likely desired the world's origin.

"Haha, what else would I need if I had the world's origin?" Du Yuan chuckled. "With that, providing many clues would be trivial."

Du Yuan shook his head; he indeed needed the world's origin. But so did Lin Fei. If he had it, why would he be so desperate for Saber Worlds? With abundant world origin to enhance his physique, Lin Fei could confidently face three heavenly tribulations, and even withstand the fourth or fifth divine thunderbolt!

"In that case, there's nothing more to discuss," Du Yuan concluded, preparing to leave with Zeng Yushu.

"Wait."

At this moment, Zeng Yushu suddenly spoke up, hesitating. But considering the circumstances, he felt he needed to recoup some losses for the Zeng family. Not only had they lost their secret realm for nothing, but Master Du Yuan had also suffered a blow to his reputation. The cost was too great.

With a determined expression, Zeng Yushu declared, "I know where a Saber World is! But, senior Lin, you must agree to a condition of mine."

Lin Fei's heart leapt with anticipation. He nodded and said, "State your condition, please."

"I know of a Martial God who possesses a Saber World, maybe even two, "Zeng Yushu revealed. "I'm not entirely sure about the exact number, but there's definitely a Saber World. If Martial God Lin can overpower that Martial God, you can naturally acquire the Saber World. My condition is straightforward. If Martial God Lin can indeed defeat that Martial God and obtain the Saber World, I only ask for one thing: a Blood Consolidation Pearl from that Martial God's collection."

"A Blood Consolidation Pearl?" Lin Fei was unfamiliar with it.

"This pearl aids in the cultivation of bloodlines for Martial Kings. It's a treasure for them," Zeng Yushu explained.

"Even a Martial King family with a Blood Consolidation Pearl may have a greater chance of producing a Martial God." He didn't hide the pearl's significance.

Lin Fei considered this. The pearl was of no use to him. Moreover, if he could obtain one or even two Saber Worlds, what harm would there be in giving the Blood Consolidation Pearl to Zeng Yushu?

"I agree," Lin Fei responded. "If I can defeat that Martial God, I'll certainly get the Blood Consolidation Pearl for you. Now, who is this Martial God?"

Zeng Yushu inhaled deeply and said solemnly, "In the Black Demon Heaven of the Ten Directions Realm, it's Martial God Mi Tian!"

"Martial God Mi Tian? No wonder..." Upon hearing this, even Du Yuan involuntarily gasped. It seemed he was aware of Mi Tian's reputation. But Lin Fei, new to the Divine Realm and still unclear about the powers within the Ancient Covenant, let alone the distant Martial Gods of the Ten Directions Realm, was unfamiliar with Mi Tian.

"May I ask, daoist fellow Du, what is the background of this Martial God Mi Tian?" Lin Fei inquired directly.

Du Yuan looked at Lin Fei and then explained, "Martial God Mi Tian has transcended six heavenly tribulations. He's renowned primarily because, as a Martial God, he's a rare practitioner of illusion techniques. Martial God Mi Tian has mastered the Law of Illusion. Moreover, his specialty is the most feared among cultivators — the Heart Demon Illusion Technique. In other words, once you enter his illusionary realm, you're essentially facing your own inner demons. Even cultivators stronger than him avoid provoking Mi Tian.

Hence, Mi Tian is also known as the 'Heart Demon Martial God.' Only those with exceptionally strong wills and invulnerability to all demons dare to confront Mi Tian. Otherwise, it's best to avoid provoking him. Once caught in his Heart Demon Illusion Technique, even if you survive, the ensuing inner demons could ruin your path of cultivation."

Du Yuan even wondered if Zeng Yushu was trying to use Lin Fei to eliminate Mi Tian indirectly. After all, Mi Tian was not someone to be trifled with easily. Most Martial Gods and Deity Transformation practitioners would rather avoid him. To actively provoke Mi Tian was almost akin to madness. Even Lin Fei looked disapprovingly at Zeng Yushu.

Realizing the misunderstanding, Zeng Yushu quickly explained, "Master, senior Lin, it's true. Because of Mi Tian's notoriety as the Heart Demon Martial God, he has cunningly obliterated many forces. He has plundered many secret realms, and to my knowledge, one of them is a Saber World. There could even be more Saber Worlds among his conquests. If senior Lin seeks Saber Worlds, then Mi Tian definitely has them!"

Zeng Yushu's words were firm and seemed truthful. However, Mi Tian's unique status made most Martial Gods reluctant to provoke him. After all, being haunted by inner demons was no trivial matter.

"Alright, I understand," Lin Fei acknowledged. "If I do defeat Martial God Mi Tian, I will give you the Blood Consolidation Pearl."

With a wave of his hand, Lin Fei indicated the end of their conversation. Du Yuan and Zeng Yushu nodded in understanding and then left the Ancient City without further delay.

Lin Fei, however, fell into deep thought. Unaware before, but now knowing that Mi Tian possessed Saber Worlds, he couldn't stay idle. But Mi Tian, renowned as the Heart Demon Martial God, was not easily provoked. Lin Fei knew he needed to devise a plan.
