Unaware that his senior in the Sect was experiencing the greatest crisis in history, Ye Feng was still outside the stone gate where the Puppet Master resided. After failing to issue verbal commands, he shifted his focus to utilizing his Soul Thought, as suggested by Xuan Lao.
He had just implanted a soul consciousness into the Puppet Wolf Fang Beast's mind. Now, by using his Soul Thought again, he aimed to control this Puppet Beast through the resonance of thought.
This method quickly proved effective! The Wolf Fang Beast, which had lost its ability to move, suddenly felt a voice speaking in its mind. Its hollow eyes emitted a strange light, and ultimately, it let out a howl!
This howl filled Ye Feng with excitement; he had finally succeeded!
"Wow, I didn't expect you to have such talent. You possess the potential of a Puppet Master, which is rare among thousands. Not bad!" Xuan Lao finally offered his praise.
Ye Feng smiled, feeling greatly pleased; this was indeed an unexpected joy! The Wolf Fang Beast seemed to fully obey him now, no longer glaring at him with hatred but instead adopting a somewhat respectful demeanor.
The only downside was that this Wolf Fang Beast's combat ability had greatly diminished. If Ye Feng hadn't deliberately spared its life earlier, it would have likely perished already.
At this moment, with no danger between them, the atmosphere felt somewhat strange. Ye Feng carefully observed the beast and planned to help it with its injuries.
The limbs that had been pierced by Heavenly Seven Fingers could not fully recover, and since there were no medical facilities available, Ye Feng could only take out some simple medicine from his Heaven and Earth Four Element Cauldron. After bandaging it up and transferring some of his energy, the near-death Wolf Fang Beast finally showed some signs of vitality!
However, its mobility was still severely impaired. Watching it struggle to walk, Ye Feng could only think of it as disabled. He felt frustrated looking at it and thought that bringing along such a Wolf Fang Beast would be more of a burden than an asset in battle!
Yet he was reluctant to give up on his first Puppet Beast. At that moment, Xuan Lao suggested, "Actually, you could take out some fragments of the Nine Nether Divine Tree for it to chew on; it might have some good effects!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng was puzzled: "Would unrefined fragments really be effective?" He wasn't hesitant about giving them away since there were plenty of fragments from the Nine Nether Divine Tree—enough to fill a small mountain—so sharing a few pieces with his Puppet Beast wouldn't matter much.
Xuan Lao explained further: "For humans, those fragments would have no effect at all. But for magical beasts, it's different; they are born and nurtured by nature and eat wild things. So even raw materials can have some effect on them—though not significantly."
As soon as he heard this, Ye Feng seemed to understand why the Blood Wolf Demon in Haotian City could naturally convert food into power; perhaps that was one of the unique benefits of being a magical beast!
Thinking this way, Ye Feng took out several pieces of the Nine Nether Divine Tree fragments. However, the Puppet Wolf Fang Beast appeared to disdain these root-like items; after sniffing them a few times, it stubbornly refused to eat!
Ye Feng was at a loss for words. Such a treasure, even if others wanted it, he would be reluctant to give it away. Yet this beast had a look of disgust on its face! However, under his firm command, the Wolf Fang Beast obediently swallowed it.
After consuming it, Ye Feng did not rush to set off immediately. Instead, he watched as the injuries on the Wolf Fang Beast's limbs miraculously began to heal, and the creature's strength was fully restored. He looked at the beast in astonishment, gaining a deeper understanding of the effects of the Nine Nether Divine Tree.
He even considered whether to give a few more pieces to this beast. After all, as his Puppet Beast, the stronger its combat power, the more beneficial it would be for him!
Old Xuan interrupted him, saying, "Too much consumption is harmful. Don't you understand this principle? No matter how good the medicine is, taking too much will do you no good. Moderation is key. Even if you possess the entire Nine Nether Divine Tree, I must remind you that you will need it in many places in the future!"
"Save what you can; don't think of yourself as invincible... Otherwise, you'll have reason to regret!"
With that said, what could Ye Feng say? He touched his nose and collected his thoughts before mounting the Wolf Fang Beast, preparing to set off on his next journey.
The Wolf Fang Beast had not had a master for many years and had never been ridden by a human before, yet it was quite obedient. It seemed to understand the benefits of following this master and let out a howl before quickly starting to run! Its speed was impressive; if not for the constraints of the Underground Palace's environment, it seemed comparable to that of the Cloud Chaser Leopard!
Facing the cold winds of the Underground Palace and twisting rapidly at high speed, Ye Feng's mind flashed with maps, stopping at the third dangerous location—Nanxi!
"First the Soul Guiding Banner, then the Nine Nether Divine Tree. What treasures could be hidden in the Divine Beast located in the Southwest Corner?" Ye Feng appeared calm on the surface but felt extremely excited inside, filled with an urge to take action.
No matter what dangers lay hidden in that place, he was determined to give it a try!
The Southwest Corner was easier to find than both Southeast and East locations. Although there were many twists and turns that would confuse an ordinary person, Ye Feng had no obstacles with the map guiding him. Eventually, riding on the imposing Wolf Fang Beast, he arrived at a corner of Nanxi!
"Is this... the third formation eye?" Ye Feng paused. Before he could dismount his steed, he was stunned by what lay before him... Compared to the simple environments of the previous two formation eyes, the Southwest Corner was far too eye-catching!
Two vividly carved Lions perched before a staircase without any doors blocking it. These Lions were neither too big nor too small; they were just about the same size as his Wolf Fang Beast. However, they looked so lifelike as if they were sleeping lions rather than mere statues!
Ye Feng gazed at these two Lions and inexplicably felt a sense of grandeur. Then he summoned his True Energy and cautiously urged the Wolf Fang Beast forward into the entrance of the staircase...
Inside the entrance, a spectacular scene unfolded, with countless beast statues standing in all directions! Some of these beasts were familiar to Ye Feng, such as the Silverhorn Beast, resembling a white rooster with silver horns, and the Golden Crystal Beast, with eyes like a leopard. There were also many bizarre creatures that Ye Feng had never encountered even in books. Numerous such beasts were carved into statues stationed at the formation's eye in this Southwest Corner, creating a dazzling effect!
Ye Feng was even more curious about what this place concealed regarding the Ancient Divine Artifact.
Soon, the answer was revealed! At the very back of the staircase entrance stood an Altar, upon which was inserted the Ancient Divine Artifact of this formation!
It was a spear! The spear was incredibly dark, seemingly forged from Black Gold, emanating a round and bright glow. It had no tassels adorning it and measured about eight feet long. The spear's body was engraved with a dragon pattern that appeared faintly, and its spearhead was diamond-shaped, with sharp edges resembling a dagger!
This spear completely captivated Ye Feng's attention; he had never imagined that a weapon could evoke such an invincible feeling! However, looking at the Hidden Dragon Black Gold Spear, Ye Feng felt that wielding it would undoubtedly allow him to charge forward fearlessly and conquer all!
"What is this all about?" Ye Feng murmured to himself, seemingly beginning to understand why so many strange beasts guarded this spear. If such a spear did not receive treatment akin to that of the king of beasts, then it would be too much of an insult to the title of the master of weapons!
Thinking this way, his words were indeed meant for Xuan Lao. Naturally, Xuan Lao, who was dormant in Ye Feng's mind, understood that this kid was seeking his guidance. However, for a moment, he fell silent—not because he didn't know the origins of this spear but because he was also stunned by its appearance...
It seemed understandable for such a spear to appear in this Underground Palace. The only thing Xuan Lao found difficult to comprehend was that the spear's owner belonged to a true Divine Sect in ancient times. Even if he wasn't invincible during that era, he certainly had no rivals!
Clearly, anyone whom Xuan Lao truly considered part of a Divine Sect in ancient times must have lasted for Ten Thousand Years. Yet why would that Divine Sect figure—who once said that when the spear perished, so too would its wielder—leave his spear here?
It didn't make sense!
"Xuan Lao, are you listening to me?" Ye Feng sensed something was off with Xuan Lao and couldn't help but speak up!
Xuan Lao was finally pulled back from his memories into reality. He let out a heavy sigh, which only left Ye Feng more puzzled!
"Xuan Lao, what's wrong? Do you know the origins of this spear?" Ye Feng voiced his most pressing concern!
Xuan Lao fell silent for a long time before slowly saying, "Kid, if you aren't just incredibly lucky, then you've had some terrible luck. Even Old Man doesn't know if this is a good thing for you!"
Ye Feng was even more confused by this statement, but he vaguely felt that Xuan Lao still had more to say.
Sure enough, Xuan Lao continued, "Even if this Underground Palace is the place sealing the ancient Titan Demon God and contains so many Exotic Treasures, it's not entirely incomprehensible. However, from the moment you discovered the Nine Nether Divine Tree in the Underworld, Old Man felt something was off!"
"Perhaps you don't believe in the existence of the Underworld right now, but I must tell you that if the Underworld truly descends upon the human realm, it would be even more terrifying than the Titan Demon God. However, this should never become a reality."
"Xuan Lao, what exactly do you want to say?" The more Ye Feng listened, the more confused he became. He couldn't stand Xuan Lao's tone any longer. Although he seemed to guess that Xuan Lao's change in demeanor was definitely related to the origin of this spear.
"Don't rush me; let Old Man finish! You probably know about the origins of the Titan Demon God, so I won't elaborate on that. However, many events from ancient times are beyond your comprehension. The appearance of the Nine Nether Divine Tree in the human realm is already a bad omen. The Soul Guiding Banner is one thing..."
"As for the Ancient Witch God, although it had some reputation during the Ancient Era, it pales in comparison to the Nine Nether Divine Tree and cannot even be compared to this spear you see before you!"
"Is it really that powerful?" Ye Feng was somewhat skeptical. Although this spear was crafted from incredibly precious Black Gold, it didn't seem that impressive at first glance. The feeling of having everything after possessing it had only flashed by; mostly, he still felt confused.
Xuan Lao scolded without holding back, "Someone like you can't even distinguish true treasures! Let me tell you, even if you can lift this spear, you might not be able to unleash even one ten-thousandth of its power!"
Hearing this, Ye Feng clicked his tongue in disbelief but pretended to remain unconvinced and said, "Xuan Lao, although my experience is far from yours, please don't try to fool me!"
