Chapter 493: Chapter 491: Asleep

"Are you so sure?"

Xu Feng looked at Silver Horn with some hesitation.

"Almost for certain!"

"Is this a speculation?"

"Decades of experience have led me to this conclusion, Xu Daoist friend, trust my judgment," Silver Horn said with emphasis.

"A matter of mere tens of thousands of years, I can wait," Xu Feng said.

The Hongmeng Immortal Boat flew above the clouds; Xu Feng watched the numerous Preaching Arenas below, his expression somewhat solemn.

Because he noticed that the large Daoist Fields, previously only occasionally visited by alchemists, were now nearly half occupied.

"Is there any benefit to guessing correctly?" Xu Feng asked curiously.

"If you guess right, you can sell the spot."

"6 billion years ago, I guessed the first place and secured a forward position."

"Then, that position was bought by a top Xuanhuang Alchemist for 5000 Contribution Points," Silver Horn had an expression like someone reminiscing about winning a 5 million prize.

"At that time, I began to take this seriously and started to deduce the location of the Great Elder’s preaching based on various pieces of information."

"Some time ago, I inadvertently came across a piece of minor news."

"In the Alchemy Area, there’s a Xuanhuang Alchemist who is a blood descendant of that Chief Great Elder."

"And now, this descendant is in this Daoist Field."

"If we go now, we can definitely secure a prominent position."

The Hongmeng Immortal Boat landed outside a large Preaching Arena.

Xu Feng and Silver Horn quickly entered the Daoist Field.

At that moment, nearly 30% of the seats had been occupied.

"That slightly yellow-skinned member of the Alien Race is the Chief Great Elder’s descendant," Silver Horn transmitted his voice to say.

"What is his level?"

"He has at least comprehended the thirty-fifth part of the Xuanhuang Alchemy Great Scripture."

As each questioned and answered, they chatted while waiting in the Daoist Field.

Xu Feng had long heard of this Chief Great Elder of the Alchemy Area and was even more astonished after learning about some of his deeds.

Besides being a top Hongmeng Alchemist, he was also a Peak Ninth Realm powerhouse.

It is said that when the Hongmeng Dao Palace was initially established, because they needed to set up the Alchemy Area, he collaborated with many top Hongmeng Alchemists to create thirty-six volumes of the Xuanhuang Alchemy Great Scripture.

As of now, in Xu Feng’s view, the thirty-six volumes of the Xuanhuang Alchemy Great Scripture are the unparalleled choice for the entire Alchemy Dao lineage.

With 50,000 years to spare, the bored Xu Feng began to preach to Silver Horn.

Wherever there was confusion, Xu Feng would break it down gently for Silver Horn.

During these 50,000 years, Silver Horn always remained excited, pulling Xu Feng to wait together here, in order to consult him about some Alchemy Dao confusions during their wait.

"Bang!!!"

A sound like a bell ringing in the depths of Chaos echoed.

Immediately, all Xuanhuang Alchemists received the message.

In an instant, the Xuanhuang Alchemists in Xu Feng’s Daoist Field boiled with excitement.

Soon after, in less than a moment, this area’s Preaching Arena was filled to capacity.

"If there are no seats, can’t we listen to the Great Elder’s preaching?" Xu Feng asked.

"You can hear it in other Preaching Arenas too, but it’s somewhat inferior."

"The Chief Great Elder, seen only once every million years; if one can leave an impression in front of him, even a slight guidance could save a great deal of detour in future Alchemy Dao," Silver Horn looked towards the principal seat of the Preaching Arena, his eyes shining with insight.

"Two Daoist friends, would you be willing to sell this spot for 4000 Contribution Points?" a cool voice arose.

A humanoid lion-headed member of the Alien Race appeared between Xu Feng and Silver Horn.

"Not selling~" The Silver Horned Man simply uttered a phrase, causing the Alien Race to stop pestering and immediately left to inquire other Xuanhuang Alchemists.

Soon, several more Xuanhuang Alchemists came to inquire, all of whom were turned away by the Silver Horned Man.

After one day had passed, the sound of the Chaos Bell reverberated.

A blurry figure appeared above the high platform of the Preaching Arena.

In Xu Feng’s eyes, that blurry figure seemed like a space of Nihility; upon closer inspection, it imposed a great pressure on Xu Feng.

Xu Feng withdrew his gaze and began to calm his Heart God.

"I forgot to tell Xu Daoist friend, one should not directly gaze at Ninth Realm powerhouses." The Silver Horned Man slightly bowed his head, refraining from looking at the figure on the high platform.

"Thank you for the information."

At that moment, the blurry figure on the high platform began to speak slowly.

"Hard to believe a million years have passed in the blink of an eye, I have aged, I have aged~"

"Thinking back to those million years, Alchemy Dao emerged from nothing and directly reached the Hongmeng Realm."

"Unexpectedly, after such a long time, Alchemy Dao still exists in such Realms, without opening a new path for you all," the Great Elder said and let out a slight sigh.

"Enough talk, let the teaching begin."

"From part one to thirty-six of the Xuanhuang Alchemy Great Scripture."

"Everyone, please listen attentively..."

The Great Elder started from the first part of the Xuanhuang Alchemy Great Scripture, and Xu Feng listened attentively.

Not much time passed, and when it reached the fifth part, a look of enlightenment appeared in Xu Feng’s eyes.

Finally, up to the thirty-fourth part of the Xuanhuang Alchemy Great Scripture, something blurry presented itself in Xu Feng’s mind.

At that moment, his copy of the Classic of Mountains and Seas in his mind suddenly started to flip slowly like the wind, with some indescribable, obscure entities being injected into it.

When the Great Elder began to speak about the thirty-fifth Alchemy Great Scripture, Xu Feng’s heart suddenly trembled, a familiar dizziness overcame him.

When he regained consciousness, the teaching had already ended.

"I..."

For some reason, Xu Feng suddenly felt like he was about to fall over drunk on the eve of ordering hot dishes in Cong Province.

Currently, numerous Xuanhuang Alchemists in the entire Preaching Arena were deep in sleep.

The Silver Horned Man standing beside him, upon seeing Xu Feng wake up, enviously inquired, "Xu Daoist friend, how was your comprehension?"

"As you saw, I actually fell asleep at the critical moment."

Xu Feng said while looking around the arena, noticing about a hundred other Alien Race Xuanhuang Alchemists also in deep sleep.

"Do not panic, Xu Daoist friend, this is all normal."

"Only those Alchemists who contemplated the last two parts of the Xuanhuang Alchemy Great Scripture could fall asleep," said the Silver Horned Man.

"The troubling part is, I didn’t feel any change," Xu Feng sensed his own being and sensed the Alchemy Dao, seeming to have no change compared to before he fell asleep.

"I am not sure about that, but I know it must be useful, otherwise those top Xuanhuang Alchemists wouldn’t have spent such a cost to stay closer to the Great Elder."

"I feel you’re right about that."

"I’ll go back to reflect on the Alchemy Dao first, and will contact you if there are any insights."

Saying this, Xu Feng left the Wan Dao Pavilion Great World and returned to his territorial stars.

In the Cultivation Realm, Xu Feng held the thirty-five parts of the Xuanhuang Alchemy Great Scripture and began to contemplate.

Then, a familiar feeling came.

When he awoke again, 300 years had passed.

"Xiao Hua, any changes compared to before?" Xu Feng asked.

"The duration of sleep has shortened, previously when master contemplated the Alchemy Dao, the sleep usually lasted between 330 to 340 years."

"This time, master only slept for 300 years."

"..."

"Uh, that’s also a kind of progress."
