The tomb's barrier shattered, and the once tranquil mountain peak erupted into chaos. In an instant, countless figures dashed toward the ancient tomb at the summit. Within minutes, the first cultivators arrived at the peak.
"Ding Dong!"
"Congratulations! You've opened the Nirvana Realm powerhouse's cave with your own strength, subverted the original storyline, and received 258 distributable attribute points."
It was only a minor change in the plot, so Ye Feng received 258 attribute points—still a respectable sum.
"Young Master Ye," Lin Qingtan called out with a smile.
Ye Feng nodded, understanding her intent. With a thought, the scenery blurred around them. In the blink of an eye, he had brought Lin Qingtan, Lin Dong, and Lin Langtian to the mountaintop.
A massive stone gate lay ahead, hidden beneath lush greenery. It had been violently shattered, large fragments scattered around. The lingering aura made it easy to guess the culprit—Wang Yan of the Wang Clan.
"He's a good seedling," Ye Feng said calmly.
Wang Yan's talent was impressive. Even without a golden finger, he had risen to rival Lin Langtian—who himself had the advantage of a grandfather with a golden finger, Master Mu. With the guidance of a true master, Wang Yan's future potential would be boundless.
"Young Master Ye, don't tell me… you're planning to take in another disciple?" Lin Qingtan teased, already knowing the answer.
She had been by Ye Feng's side long enough to witness his obsession with recruiting disciples.
"If you enjoy it that much, why not just take in a thousand at once?"
Ye Feng chuckled. "You're not wrong. After we finish exploring this tomb, I'll begin the disciple recruitment trials."
"You're serious?" Lin Qingtan blinked. She'd only been joking.
"Of course." Ye Feng's smile was as calm as ever.
Hearing this, Lin Langtian's heart stirred. He turned to glance at Lin Dong. Originally a branch family member, Lin Dong had obtained a strange flame and gained the power to challenge Nirvana Realm experts—all because he had become Ye Feng's disciple.
If Lin Dong could achieve that… then I, Lin Langtian, can surpass him.
With firm resolve, Lin Langtian made up his mind. After the tomb exploration, he would throw himself into Ye Feng's trials and become his disciple no matter what.
"Langtian, Lin Dong—you two go explore the tomb on your own. Qingtan, come with me," Ye Feng ordered.
In the Lin family, Ye Feng's word was law. No one objected.
Passing through the shattered stone gate, Ye Feng remained composed, though Lin Qingtan sensed a subtle energy disturbance that slightly slowed her spirit flow.
Following the storyline, Lin Dong chose the fifth corridor on the left. Lin Langtian selected the ninth. Ye Feng and Lin Qingtan entered a central passage.
Stone doors lined the hallway. Behind them were chambers, most of which had already been looted.
Ten minutes later, the pair reached the end of the passage and stepped into a vast hall resembling a square plaza. Dozens of other passages led into the same space. Already, a crowd had gathered—among them, members of the Wang and Qin families.
They were attacking a shimmering light shield suspended in the air. Each strike caused ripples across the barrier's surface.
"Spiritual treasures!" Lin Qingtan gasped.
Inside the barrier, six radiant items floated—blade, arrow, shield, armor, and more. All of them were rare spiritual-grade weapons.
"As expected from a Nirvana Realm powerhouse's tomb," she muttered in admiration.
"Want one?" Ye Feng asked, glancing at her.
"I do. I'm still missing a suitable weapon," Lin Qingtan replied honestly.
"Alright. Leave it to me." Ye Feng raised a hand.
With a flick of his finger, the barrier shattered like glass.
The hall fell silent. The six spiritual treasures shot through the air and floated before Ye Feng.
"Hey! Don't even think of hoarding everything—hand them over!"
"Yeah! Are you looking to die?!"
"Hand over the treasures!"
Three loud explosions rang out.
The cultivators who had spoken were reduced to blood mist before anyone could react.
The rest of the crowd fell silent, fear etched into their expressions.
"What kind of weapon do you want?" Ye Feng asked Lin Qingtan.
"That sickle," she said. In the original story, she had wielded the Dark Holy Scythe.
"No. You're a girl. Knives, swords, hammers… they don't suit your style. I'll refine a proper weapon for you—a masterpiece." His tone was decisive.
Lin Qingtan smiled. "Okay."
With a flip of his palm, Ye Feng summoned the Emperor Flame. The temperature surged instantly, the air shimmering.
The Heavenly Flame expanded and wrapped around the six spiritual treasures. They began to melt, releasing black smoke—impurities being purged.
Soon, the items turned into a pool of molten crimson metal.
"Too ordinary," Ye Feng muttered.
Closing his eyes briefly, he sensed the materials: monster scales, rare ores—valuable to most, but unworthy in his eyes.
"Come."
Ye Feng reached out to the void.
Far beyond the planet's atmosphere, a meteorite streaked through the sky, blazing like a falling star. Under his control, it descended rapidly and landed beside him with a thunderous crash.
"A meteorite… from outer space?!" Wang Yan exclaimed.
"It's huge—about the size of a bed!" Qin Shi gasped. "What's it worth?"
"But… why is it silver?" Wang Yan asked, confused.
He didn't understand. This was no ordinary space rock.
It was Dark Silver—a mysterious metal from the Super God Academy Plane. Naturally formed, unimaginably sharp. It could even kill a fourth-generation divine body Demon Queen.
For Ye Feng, only the best would do.
If he was going to forge a weapon for Lin Qingtan, it would be a divine weapon. A treasure that could shock gods and ghosts alike.
The meteorite gradually shrank under the Emperor Flame. Ye Feng used spatial power to compress and mold it.
Before long, a sleek longbow took shape.
As it cooled, Ye Feng dipped his fingers into the refined essence of the melted spiritual treasures. With precision, he carved intricate runes into the bow's body. Each completed inscription caused pulses of energy to ripple out, making the bow shine brighter.
