Easy Way of Cultivation: Power Harvesting

The mysterious woman wore a green dress, swaying gracefully like a willow in the wind.

Standing five meters away from Wei Fan, she scrutinized him with a smile at the corner of her mouth, "Does Brother Wei still remember this young lady?"

Wei Fan nodded, "Of course I remember. That day, you slew a Martial Venerable as easily as slaughtering chickens and dogs, how could I forget?"

Not to mention the mysterious woman’s terrifying cultivation, just her extraordinarily beautiful visage was impossible to forget after seeing it once.

The mysterious woman looked Wei Fan up and down, nodding lightly, "Not bad, reaching the Golden Body Eighth Forging before the age of twenty. Even in the outside world, you’d be considered a genius. In this Land of Dao Collapse, it’s even more remarkable. If you hadn’t been born in this Land of Dao Collapse, you would have been a Martial King Powerhouse by now."

Wei Fan showed a look of surprise!

Outside world, Land of Dao Collapse?

Could it be that this woman is not from the Wilderness?

Wei Fan invited the mysterious woman into the pavilion to sit down, "My lady, you came specifically to find me, may I ask for what purpose?"

It was clear the mysterious woman had come specifically to find him, not by coincidence, as could be inferred from her previous words, indicating she had been searching for him for some time.

"My name is Feng Hua, Brother Wei can just call me Feng Hua!"

The mysterious woman spoke with a soft smile, revealing her name, "To be honest, I have something to ask of Brother Wei!"

Wei Fan cupped his hands, "So it is Miss Feng Hua."

He then frowned slightly, "May I ask what it is that Miss Feng Hua seeks? With your abilities, Miss Feng Hua, if even you can’t accomplish it, I’m afraid I may not be able to help."

Although he hadn’t used his Heart Spirit to sense Feng Hua’s cultivation, it was undoubtedly terrifying, perhaps even a mysterious Martial King powerhouse.

Given his cultivation, he was confident that no ordinary Martial Venerable could get this close without him noticing.

This woman called Feng Hua, he was ninety percent sure she was a Martial King expert, and if such a person couldn’t accomplish something, he doubted he could.

Feng Hua shook her head, "If you couldn’t accomplish it, I wouldn’t have come to you, and it’s a good thing for you as well."

Wei Fan looked puzzled; she came to ask for his help and also said it’s a good thing for him.

Feng Hua stood up, gazing at the mountains, and said softly, "Brother Wei, do you know how vast this world is?"

Wei Fan shook his head; he truly didn’t know how vast the world was.

He only knew there were a dozen or so dynasties of the Desert Human Race, each comparable to Huaxia in his previous life. The regions occupied by the Demon Fiend were even more expansive than those occupied by the Human Race, truly hard to measure in size.

Feng Hua shook her head, "Actually, I don’t know how vast it is either; the Wilderness is but a drop in the ocean of the entire world!"

Wei Fan showed a moved expression; he had thought there was a world beyond the Wilderness but hadn’t imagined it would be so vast that such a broad Wilderness could be just a drop in the ocean.

Feng Hua also didn’t know because the world was indeed too vast.

"Miss Feng Hua is not from the Wilderness?"

After listening for a while, he realized that Feng Hua wanted to express that the world is vast, and the outside is fascinating.

And what Feng Hua wanted to express should be related to the help she was seeking.

Feng Hua nodded, "Indeed, I come from another region, not from the Wilderness. Are you not curious why, even though we are all from the same world, you’ve never encountered anyone not belonging to the Wilderness?"

Wei Fan nodded, indeed this puzzled him.

The Divine Realm Martial Sect can fly, and even a Martial Venerable powerhouse can fly continuously for months without issue, not to mention Martial King powerhouses. Yet, to this day, the Wilderness seems isolated from the outside, with no experts from the outside appearing in the Wilderness, nor hearing of any Wilderness experts traveling outside.

"It seems you haven’t delved deeply into understanding the Wilderness!"

Feng Hua walked out of the pavilion, "Come with me!"

As she spoke, her aura surged, and her body soared into the sky.

Wei Fan was puzzled but still followed Feng Hua upward, both of them flying continuously until they reached above the clouds without stopping.

At this moment, Wei Fan felt a terrifying pressure, as if something from the deep sky above was continually falling.

After a while, this pressure became unbearable, as if a world was crushing down on him, rendering him immobile.

Feng Hua’s power swept him up, continuing their ascent for a while longer, until even Feng Hua reached her limit, unable to ascend further.

"Look up!" Feng Hua reminded him.

Wei Fan looked up to find an abyssal void, seeing nothing.

Yet, in his Heart Spirit, he felt as if something majestic and grand in front of him was disintegrating in the void, with an indescribable grand power descending upon him, nearly crushing his Heart Spirit.

"What is that?" Wei Fan exclaimed in shock.

His realm naturally wouldn’t have any illusions; it’s just that the things in the void are too advanced, beyond the reach of his Martial Venerable Realm.

The terrifying pressure also emanated from this magnificent and towering presence.

"You can actually sense its existence, it seems your Primordial Spirit is quite extraordinary!"

Feng Hua showed a hint of surprise, "That is a Dao that is collapsing!"

A collapsing Dao?

Wei Fan was pensive, "Is this why you say the Wilderness is the Land of Dao Collapse? What exactly is the Land of Dao Collapse?"

Feng Hua pointed ahead, "Take a look, this is roughly what the Wilderness looks like."

She didn’t directly answer Wei Fan’s question. At this moment, the two of them had already reached a great height, and the Extreme Martial Sect was completely out of sight. Even the entire Zhao Kingdom did not occupy much space in his vision, as the entire outline of the Wilderness appeared.

Surrounding the Wilderness was a lifeless expanse of yellow sand, as the Wilderness was like an oasis in the desert.

"Is the Wilderness isolated from the outside world by this barren desert, so outsiders can’t come here, and people here can’t get out?"

Wei Fan was still a little puzzled. Even if the Wilderness was surrounded by a lifeless desert, with the ability of a Martial Venerable powerhouse, flying for months or years should be able to get out, right?

Feng Hua shook her head, "You’ve felt this pressure, haven’t you? This pressure is the aftermath of the Dao Collapse. It’s not only in the sky; the entire perimeter of the Wilderness is also enveloped by the aftermath of the Dao Collapse. Under its influence, not just Martial Venerables but even Martial Kings would be crushed to death and unable to cross!

The lifeless sandy area is also formed by the aftermath of the Dao Collapse."

Wei Fan’s face changed slightly, meaning the entire Wilderness is a cage, a cage shrouded by the Dao Collapse, and being able to fly wouldn’t help unless one could withstand its aftermath.

Luckily, the aftermath of the Dao Collapse affects only the surrounding area of the Wilderness; otherwise, all living beings here would perish!

"How was this Dao Collapse formed?"

The two began to descend from the heights, as Feng Hua couldn’t withstand the Dao Collapse for long periods.

They landed at the Extreme Martial Sect, and at this moment, Ji Qingyue also emerged from the Hidden Merit Hall searching for Wei Fan. She and Feng Hua greeted each other and introduced themselves, then the three found a place to sit.

"Countless years have passed, and it seems much of the Wilderness’s heritage has been lost. You don’t even know what a Dao Collapse is, or why the Wilderness has become like this!"

Feng Hua sighed, "Ten thousand years ago, a world-shaking powerhouse named Qi Daozhen emerged here. It is said that this Senior Qi Daozhen acquired the legendary Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations and cultivated it to the Seventh Transformation, unmatched in the world, overwhelming Demons.

Wei Fan’s heart stirred; could this person Feng Hua mentioned be the same one Long Jianying referred to in the past?

"Qi Daozhen reached enlightenment in the Wilderness, and his Dao covered the entire Wilderness. When he was alive, the Wilderness was the supreme cultivation Holy Land.

But with his passing, his Dao also collapsed, turning the Wilderness into this current state of incomplete Martial Dao."

Wei Fan drew a sharp breath; the magnificent presence he felt was actually the Martial Dao of a legendary master.

This is terrifyingly frightening. To be at such a high level that even after so many years posthumously, his Dao hasn’t completely collapsed and vanished, causing the vast region’s Martial Dao to become incomplete.

Ji Qingyue’s eyes fixed, "Is the Martial Dao of the Wilderness incomplete?"

Feng Hua glanced at her, "You don’t even know whether your Martial Dao is incomplete; this kind of incompleteness is not about the lack of cultivation techniques but the incompleteness of the Martial Dao itself.

Outside the Wilderness, there’s no concept of One-Color, Two-Color, and Three-Colored Golden Body for the Martial Venerable Realm; anyone who can achieve it would naturally cultivate a Seven-Colored Golden Body.

This is the impact of Qi Daozhen’s Martial Dao collapse on the Wilderness; you haven’t been outside and don’t know what the normal world is like.

Here, breaking into the Martial Venerable Realm before a hundred years is considered a Demon-level talent, but outside, a hundred-year-old Martial Venerable is a waste. True talents almost always reach the Martial Venerable Realm before the age of twenty and become Martial Kings by fifty.

The truly peerless ones reach the Martial King Realm in their twenties."

Ji Qingyue and Wei Fan were both secretly moved; where everyone possesses a Seven-Colored Golden Body, a hundred-year-old Martial Venerable is a waste, and only breaking through to Martial Venerable before twenty qualifies as a genius.

Looking across this Wilderness, apart from Wei Fan, it seems no one else has been heard of reaching Martial Venerable before the age of twenty.

"The Martial Dao outside is so dazzling!" Wei Fan’s eyes lit up.

He finally understood the terror of the Land of Dao Collapse; not to mention Martial Kings in their twenties or thirties, just the prevalence of Seven-Colored Martial Venerable is enough to illustrate how terrifyingly incomplete the Wilderness’s Martial Dao is.

At this moment, he developed the idea of exploring the outside world.

Ji Qingyue also appeared longing; with her talents, if she were born outside, she might already be a Martial King powerhouse by now.

Feng Hua shook her head, "It’s far more than that. In a normal world, not only is cultivation easier, but also various extraordinary physiques are born. For example, some people are born with a condensed Divine Soul, naturally a Divine Realm Martial Sect.

More exaggerated could be those born with a condensed Golden Body, with incredibly formidable physiques!

This place is just a shallow pool; it can’t nurture a True Dragon. If you both were in the outside world, Wei Fan at the very least would be a Martial King powerhouse.

Ji Qingyue, even if not a Martial King, wouldn’t be much far off."
