A group of people were riding a magnificent cloud in the sky above Tiantai.
"The teacher and our disciples are back."
"Many people came back, that must mean they won!" thought the people of Tiantai. Not everyone could participate at the meeting of the emperors, so they couldn't wait to hear about the results.
"Go down!" said Emperor Yu indifferently. Those who weren't direct disciples descended from the sky. Meng Qing and Qiu Yue Xin were annoyed because they weren't direct disciples themselves.
"Teacher!" shouted Lin Feng. Emperor Yu knew what Lin Feng was going to ask. He smiled and said, "They can stay with you."
"Thank you, teacher!" Lin Feng bowed and smiled. Emperor Yu looked at Tiantai's people and said, "The eleven direct disciples were all qualified and had amazed the whole province. I hope that someday, more of you will be able to become direct disciples and that the people of Ba Huang will know your name as well. I hope that someday, you'll reach the clouds. Also, be careful of people from the Qi Clan and Tian Long Divine Castle."
"We understand!" said everybody bowing before Emperor Yu, who then nodded back at them. Then, the cloud with the remaining people on it disappeared.
"What kind of place is the sky above the sky? Is it an empty space castle?" guessed some people.
At that moment, Emperor Yu and the others made it to the sky above the sky.
"It's been a few hundreds of years already, but I don't know when it'll develop." said Emperor Yu, gazing into the distance and smiling indifferently.
"A few hundreds years!" Lin Feng asked, "Teacher, is the sky above the sky your small world?"
Emperor Yu looked at Lin Feng, he looked both wise and calm. He smiled and nodded: "Indeed, this is my small world, one of them at least."
"One of them!" Lin Feng repeated. Emperor Yu had taken him for a walk in that small world before. Many people already lived there. If Emperor Yu had created it a few hundreds of years ago, a thousand years later, it'd probably be incredible. Then what about ten thousand years later? It would be filled with magnificent landscapes.
"So basically, the Jade Emperor's palace was not a small world, the mysterious world holding it was a small world. The palace is just a symbol of that small world, just like Tiantai is a symbol of the sky above the sky." thought Lin Feng.
"Lin Feng, I told you that after you broke through to the Zun Qi layer, I'd give you an opportunity which could change your life. Now you have come back!" said Emperor Yu smiling. He didn't hide anything from the others. All the people there, apart from Meng Qing and Qiu Yue Xin, had also benefited from such an opportunity. The fact that Lin Feng was a direct disciple and had dazzled at the meeting of the emperors had something to do with that opportunity.
"Something that could change my life!" Lin Feng was curious.
"Thank you very much, Teacher!"
"Alright, you move aside." said Emperor Yu to the others.
"Hehe, Lin Feng is already terrifyingly strong and talented. With such an opportunity, he could become even stronger!" said Xing Zhan while smiling fatuously.
Emperor Yu shook his hand and a water crystal appeared in the air. Then, it slowly turned into a dazzling gate which could attract the stars.
"Emperor Shi and I obtained this treasure previously, but we don't know what it is. It seems like it has its own strength, but it also seems to be able to change people's destiny. It can steal the force of the Earth and sky, allowing talented cultivators to improve. Emperor Shi and I rose thanks to it." explained Emperor Yu.
"Some people say grand talents mature slowly when they talk about us. I don't know if Emperor Shi and I are grand talents who matured slowly, but I know that we've been extremely lucky. To be honest, after leaving Tian Chi, I practiced cultivation a lot and I killed millions of people, but I never stopped. I also participated in the meeting of the emperors and so on, however, I became an emperor only thanks to that item." said Emperor Yu, not hiding anything.
"Lin Feng, go inside. I hope it'll be as useful for you as it was me." said Emperor Yu smiling. Lin Feng nodded and walked through the gate, into the dazzling lights.
"Bzzz!" the disciples couldn't even look at it, it was too dazzling.
"How strong!" said Wu Yong, sighing.
"Lin Feng is extremely talented." said Mo Qing Tian. That treasure could show how talented people were in that the more talented someone was, the more dazzling the gate was. After Lin Feng entered, the gate became incredibly dazzling.
Emperor Yu smiled happily. Then, the gate turned into a light and cleansed Lin Feng's body.
"How pleasant. What kind of terrifying treasure is that?" Lin Feng closed his eyes and bathed in the lights. He had an incredible sensation, almost like an orgasm. It felt pleasant all over his body.
He had the sensation his bones and flesh were changing, as well as his strength. It was even more efficient than bathing in the thunders.
"It's changing my physical body, ridding me of my imperfections." thought Lin Feng. No wonder Tiantai's direct disciples were all that strong. Their physical bodies had been changed through this process. To be a strong cultivator, a powerful physical body was essential.
"If I could constantly absorb these energies, that'd be great!" thought Lin Feng. He knew it wasn't possible though.
His blood started boiling and Qi was rotating around him rapidly. The treasure was now modifying his blood, improving it. His blood was fusing together with the Earth and sky.
How incredible, what a perfect feeling.
"Roar, roar!" dragon heads appeared around Lin Feng. All nine of them looked ferocious.
"My spirit is being cleansed too!" thought Lin Feng, astonished. Three of the heads were different, there was a gigantic axe, a pair of silver wings and a shadow.
His dragon Qi was becoming stronger, Xuan Yuan's axe was becoming more explosive, the silver wings were becoming more dazzling and the shadow was becoming even more intangible and silent!
