Level 500 is a major hurdle; after breaking through, one becomes a Main God.

Translate: "Level 500 is a major hurdle; after breaking through, one becomes a Main God."

Check: we must not add words not in source. Source: "500 level is a big pass, after breaking through it is main god." Literal: "500 level is a big pass, after breaking through it is main god." We'll translate: "Level 500 is a major hurdle; after breaking through, one becomes a Main God." That's fine.

However, Xiao Feng still hasn't met the conditions for breaking through.

Translate: "However, Xiao Feng has not yet met the conditions for breakthrough."

We need to use Xiao Feng.

At the moment his level reached 500, the system popped up a small notification box.

Translate: "At the instant his level rose to 500, the system popped up a small hint box."

【You have not yet met all the conditions to break through to Main God!】

Condition 1: Level 500 (achieved)

Condition 2: Willpower reaching 1,000,000 (not achieved)

Translate: "Condition 2: Willpower reaching 1,000,000 (not achieved)"

Condition 3: Comprehending at least one law power (achieved)

Translate: "Condition 3: Comprehending at least one law power (achieved)"

Two of the three conditions have now been met.

Willpower currently is still under 500,000, far short.

Translate: "Willpower currently is still under 500,000, far short."

After reaching level 500, Xiao Feng's cultivation also stalled and could not increase further, just like the earlier Demigod Realm; he must break through before he can continue growing.

Note: there is a typo "500 level" but same. Translate: "After reaching level 500, Xiao Feng's cultivation also stalled and could not increase further, just like the earlier Demigod Realm; he must break through before he can continue growing."

The seven female demon seniors noticed he was no longer absorbing energy, and all showed satisfied expressions.

The seven all rose and landed beside the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Pool to wait for him.

Translate: "The seven all rose and stood beside the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Pool, waiting for him."

Xiao Feng said gratefully: "Thank you, seniors, for your help; otherwise, even with a supreme treasure assisting me, I would hardly reach the perfection of the Upper God in such a short time."

Translate: "Xiao Feng said gratefully: \"Thanks to all your help; otherwise, even with the Supreme Treasure's aid, I could hardly reach the Upper God's perfect state in such a short time. \""

18 days, six months—if he were leveling normally by clearing dungeons, he should be around level 455 now; even with some encounters and special cultivation methods, at most he'd be around level 465.

Translate: "18 days, six months—if he upgraded normally by clearing dungeons, he'd now be around level 455; even with some lucky encounters and special cultivation methods, at most he'd be level 465."

Such rapid progress is entirely thanks to the assistance of the seven butterfly demon seniors; naturally we should thank them.

Translate: "Such rapid progress is entirely thanks to the seven butterfly demon seniors' help; naturally, we should thank them."

Zixi smiled and said: "Just verbal thanks? How about some real action, like massaging the sisters' legs and shoulders?"

Translate: "Zixi smiled and said: \"Just verbal thanks? Show some real action—like massaging the sisters' legs and shoulders. \""

"Uh... okay." Xiao Feng replied.

Having received such a great benefit, this small effort shouldn't be shirked.

"Then come up here~"

Xiyun covered her mouth and laughed lightly.

After soaking in the Heavenly Pool's heavy water for 18 days, Xiao Feng had grown tired of it and immediately got up to leave.

Translate: "After soaking in the Heavenly Pool's heavy water for 18 days, Xiao Feng had grown tired of it and immediately rose to get out."

But as he stood up, he suddenly felt a chilly draft below.

The system's built-in whiteboard base... had actually been obliterated into nothing by the pool water filled with temporal power!

Translate: "The system's built‑in whiteboard lining… was actually obliterated into nothing by the pool water saturated with temporal power!"

"Holy shit!"

Holy shit!

Xiao Feng couldn't help but blush, quickly jumping ashore and swiftly putting on his equipment.

Translate: "Xiao Feng's face flushed involuntarily; he hurriedly jumped ashore and quickly put on his gear."

The female demons burst into cheerful laughter; aside from Cai Yi, they all wore mischievous expressions.

Xiyun teased: "We've already seen you naked for over ten days, why are you still shy?"

Zixi even whistled: "Young but well-endowed, let's play together sometime~"

Translate: "Zixi even whistled: \"Young but well‑endowed; let's play together sometime. \""

Xiao Feng instantly became even more embarrassed; even his years‑forged thick skin could hardly cope.

Translate: "Xiao Feng instantly became more embarrassed; even his years‑trained thick skin could barely hold up."

"In front of a distinguished guest, you guys don't even know to restrain yourselves," Cai Yi said helplessly.

Translate: "\"In front of a distinguished guest, you guys don't know how to restrain yourselves. \" Cai Yi said helplessly."

She threw a Baundu leaf and told Xiao Feng: "Come up, Your Majesty should also be done; now I'll take you to see her."

Translate: "She threw a Jianmu leaf and said to Xiao Feng: \"Come up; His Majesty should also be free now—I'll take you to see her. \""

With Cai Yi defusing the situation, Xiao Feng's embarrassment eased a bit.

He equipped his full gear and landed on the Baundu leaf.

The leaf then enlarged, carrying everyone away from the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Pool toward the divine tree known as the "Baundu Sprout".

Translate: "The leaf then enlarged, carrying everyone away from the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Pool toward the divine tree of the Jianmu sprout."

Over the past ten days or so, Xiao Feng would chat with the seniors when idle, also gaining some understanding of the Myriad Phenomena Forest.

Translate: "Over the past ten or so days, Xiao Feng would chat with the seniors when idle, also gaining some knowledge of the Myriad Phenomena Forest."

The Myriad Phenomena Forest is the territory of the Calamity Demon clan, although strong members of the Beast, Holy Insect and other clans also operate there, but the top‑tier forces have remained unchanged.

Translate: "The Myriad Phenomena Forest is the territory of the Calamity Demon Clan, although experts from the Wilderness Beast Clan, Holy Insect Clan and other major groups also operate there; but the top‑tier powers have remained unchanged."

Within this legendary secret realm, three demon emperors reside long‑term; the Xuan Butterfly's Emperor Palace is located on the "Little Baundu".

Translate: "In this legendary secret realm, three demon emperors reside long‑term; the Profound Butterfly's Butterfly Emperor Palace is located on the Little Jianmu."

The "Invincible Demon Emperor", possessing Xuanwu blood, resides in the "Gui Shui Lake".

Translate: "The \"Undefeated Demon Emperor\", possessing Xuanwu bloodline, resides in Guishui Lake."

These three places are separated by at least millions of kilometers, yet for a demon emperor a single thought suffices to reach them.

Translate: "These three places are separated by at least millions of kilometers, yet for a demon emperor a single thought suffices to reach them."

Xiao Feng also heard about the fourth and strongest of the Calamity Demon clan's four demon emperors.

Translate: "Xiao Feng also heard about the last of the Calamity Demon Clan's Four Great Demon Emperors—the strongest among them."

That demon emperor's true form is the Golden‑Eye Holy Ape, titled the "Holy Ape Demon Emperor", usually abbreviated as the "Ape Emperor", and is one of the top‑tier experts on the Myriad Realms Battlefield.

Translate: "That demon emperor's true form is the Golden‑Eye Holy Ape; his title is Holy Ape Demon Emperor, commonly called the Ape Emperor, and he is one of the elite Venerables of supreme strength in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield."

The Ape Emperor once gave guidance to the Xuan Butterfly Demon Emperor; he has existed for endless ages, cultivating since antiquity to the present, witnessing the rise and fall of countless eras.

Translate: "The Ape Emperor once gave guidance to the Profound Butterfly Demon Emperor; he has existed for endless ages, cultivating since the primordial era to the present, witnessing the rise and fall of one era after another."

Although the Myriad Phenomena Forest lacks the Ape Emperor's palace, the whole forest can actually be considered his cavern abode.

Translate: "Although the Myriad Phenomena Forest has no palace for the Ape Emperor, the whole forest can actually be said to be his cave abode."

Because this secret realm is none other than the territory he seized!

Translate: "Because this secret realm is none other than the territory he seized!"

This legendary secret realm is extremely vast.

Translate: "This legendary secret realm is extremely vast."

Xiao Feng asked Cai Yi for map sharing, and has now fully unlocked the map of the Myriad Phenomena Forest, allowing him to see the general information of each location.

Translate: "Xiao Feng asked Cai Yi for map sharing; he has fully unlocked the Myriad Phenomena Forest's map, allowing him to see the general information of each place."

This secret realm is actually an independent plane on par with the Nine Provinces Immortal Realm and the Elemental God Realm, parasitic on the Myriad Realms Battlefield, with stable space and many powerful beings.

Translate: "This secret realm is actually an independent plane comparable to the Nine Provinces Immortal Realm and the Yuan Su Shen Yu, parasitic on the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, with stable space and many powerful beings."

Excluding the three demon emperors, the Myriad Phenomena Forest already knows of twenty to thirty Ancestral‑God‑level experts!

Translate: "Excluding the three demon emperors, the Myriad Phenomena Forest alone is known to host twenty‑to‑thirty Ancestral God‑level experts!"

About half of them are attached to the three great demon emperors, while the rest occupy favorable spots in the Myriad Phenomena Forest to cultivate and have their own forces.

Translate: "About half of them depend on the three great demon emperors; the rest occupy favorable spots in the Myriad Phenomena Forest to cultivate, each with their own forces."

Below the Ancestral Gods are the Divine Kings.

Translate: "Below the Ancestral God is the God King."

At this level there are even more, numbering in the hundreds; just under the Xuan Butterfly Demon Emperor alone there are a full 78 Divine Kings!

Translate: "At this level there are far more—several hundred strong—and just under the Profound Butterfly Demon Emperor's command there are a full seventy‑eight God Kings!"

Zixi and the others, being butterfly incarnates nurtured by the Xuan Butterfly Demon Emperor's enlightenment, are considered close confidants and may reside near the Little Baundu.

Translate: "Zixi and the others, being butterfly incarnates nurtured by the Profound Butterfly Demon Emperor's enlightenment, count as confidants and may reside near the Little Jianmu."

Those Divine Kings who are not close confidants all cultivate in the outskirts around the Little Baundu.

Translate: "Those non‑confidant God Kings, however, train in the outskirts around the Little Jianmu."

Below the Divine Kings, the Main God tier is far more numerous—too many to count—with at least hundreds of thousands in the Myriad Phenomena Forest.

Translate: "Weaker still are the Main God‑level beings—too many to count, with at least hundreds of thousands in the Myriad Phenomena Forest."

The density of experts in the entire Myriad Phenomena Forest is roughly comparable to that of the outside Myriad Realms Battlefield.

Translate: "Overall, the density of powerful beings in the Myriad Phenomena Forest is roughly the same as that in the external Myriad Heavens Battlefield."

But the number of top-tier experts is considerably greater.

These strong individuals are the targets that players will need to overcome in the future.

Either become a disciple to learn skills, or curry favor, or directly kill them to loot equipment.

In short, these monsters—or NPCs—are all interactive.

Moreover, the environment of the Myriad Phenomena Forest itself is very suitable for cultivation; after reaching level 500, if one has the ability to settle in some blessed spots here, it will be more advantageous than residing in some small Mi Jing.

Xiao Feng's level is now sufficient, and he will soon break through to the next realm.

Little Jianmu is right before them; Cai Yi leads him and several demon kings straight toward the treetop of Little Jianmu.

Approximately seventy or eighty big and small houses have been built on the entire Little Jianmu; every powerful being of Ancestral God-level loyal to the Black Butterfly can reside there, and some favored God Kings as well.

Some parts are currently vacant, serving as cultivation chambers and guest rooms.

The Butterfly Emperor Palace is located at the treetop's highest point, half-hidden within the canopy, with part of it obscured by huge leaves.

Nevertheless, one can still see that the entire palace is woven from branches, green leaves, and vines, elegant and natural, with no traces of artificial craftsmanship, as if finely carved by nature itself, very beautiful.

Xiao Feng saw the palace on this divine tree and suddenly understood why the little Black Butterfly, upon seeing the vine house of the Azure Moon Cave Heaven, took a liking to it and moved his little silkworm cocoon inside.
