Chapter 1565

Uh...... that serious?

But need to keep quotes? The source includes Chinese quotation marks 「」. In English we can drop them or keep as quotes? Usually we translate content without the quotes. The instruction: translate faithfully, not add or omit. The quotes are punctuation; we can omit them as they are not meaningful content? Usually we keep meaning but not necessarily the same punctuation style. Safer to just output the sentence without the Chinese quotes. We'll output: Uh...... that serious?

Xiao Feng saw Xuan Die's nervous appearance, and also realized the matter seemed much bigger than he had anticipated.

Thus translation: Xiao Feng saw Xuan Die's nervous look, and also realized the situation was far bigger than he had imagined.

We need to keep same meaning, not add. Let's produce: Xiao Feng saw Xuan Die looking nervous, and also realized the matter was much bigger than he had thought.

Myriad Tribulations Pagoda said: "Don't panic, Little Butterfly; the old Taotie has no backing left, it can't control its mouth, it has eaten many strong fellows of its kind, and has long been expelled by several other beast gods of the Savage Beast Clan. Back when it fought the great banyan tree, it was so badly injured that no one came to help it, which says a lot."

Myriad Tribulations Pagoda

Little Butterfly, old Taotie, it, strong fellows of its kind, Savage Beast Clan, beast god, great banyan tree

Thus translation: Myriad Tribulations Pagoda said: "Don't panic, Little Butterfly, the old Taotie has no backing anymore; it can't control its mouth, ate many strong fellows of its kind, and has long been expelled by several other beast gods of the Savage Beast Clan. Back when it fought the great banyan tree, it was so badly injured that no one came to help it, which says a lot."

We need to keep quotes? We'll omit Chinese quotes but keep English quotes maybe. We'll output: Myriad Tribulations Pagoda said: "Don't panic, Little Butterfly, the old Taotie has no backing anymore; it can't control its mouth, ate many strong fellows of its kind, and has long been expelled by several other beast gods of the Savage Beast Clan. Back when it fought the great banyan tree, it was so badly injured that no one came to help it, which says a lot."

This seems to involve some past events.

Xiao Feng, only 21 years old, knows nothing about events from tens or hundreds of thousands of years ago and can only stand by and listen.

Xuan Die shook his head and said, "No matter how you put it, he's still a beast god, one of the Savage Beast Clan's foundations. If you really killed him, that would be fine, but you let his soul escape, planting a huge disaster. Taotie has nowhere to turn; he'll surely beg his old friends for help. Once they come knocking, with my master gone, just the three of us from Myriad Phenomena Forest stand no chance."

Myriad Phenomena Forest

My master is absent.

Just relying on the three of us from Myriad Phenomena Forest.

Thus translation: Xuan Die, hearing that, shook his head and said: "No matter how you say it, it's still a beast god, one of the foundations of the Savage Beast Clan. This little calamity, if you really killed him it would be fine, but you let his soul escape, planting a huge disaster. Taotie has nowhere to go, will surely bow to ask help from his old friends; once they come knocking, with my master absent, just the three of us from Myriad Phenomena Forest are no match at all!"

Myriad Tribulations Pagoda fell silent upon hearing, feeling her concerns were not without reason.

Xiao Feng said embarrassedly, "So... do I have to pack up and leave?"

Myriad Tribulations Pagoda said, "If it's really as Little Butterfly said, then to avoid war between the two clans you must cut ties with the Calamity Demon Clan. Even that Dao‑slaying sword must be returned to Wu Xin Dao Zun, otherwise you'll drag her into trouble."

Calamity Demon Clan, Dao‑slaying sword, Wu Xin Dao Zun

Thus translation: Myriad Tribulations Pagoda said: "If it's really as Little Butterfly said, then to avoid starting a war between the two clans, you really need to cut ties with the Calamity Demon Clan. Even that Dao-slaying sword, you must return it to Wu Xin Dao Zun, otherwise you'll implicate her and she'll be in trouble."

Seven great beast gods, seven venerable ones...

Who can withstand this pressure?

Unless the Dao Ancestor appears in person, no one wants to face such an enemy.

"Alright, you may go."

Xuan Die let out a faint sigh.

She now believes Xiao Feng wasn't boasting, but her impression has undergone a huge, uncontrollable change.

Of course, she doesn't think worse of him; she just no longer sees him as merely a junior.

Being able to slay Taotie...

Even if Taotie was wounded and the attack succeeded via sneak attack, it still proves how terrifying Xiao Feng's strength is.

He is only a lower‑tier Main God realm!

If he reaches the God King or Ancestor God realm, who in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield could stop him?

She even feels that if she were to face him head‑on now, she would be severely wounded by him.

"I originally wanted to form a good affinity with you, hoping you would become the Dao Ancestor and take me away. But now the Savage Beast Clan is powerful; the survival of my Butterfly Emperor Palace would be threatened, so I can no longer treat you as I did these past days. Xiao Feng, I'm sorry—I have no choice." Xuan Die sighed.

Seeing her reaction, Xiao Feng realized he could no longer continue living on Little Jianmu.

He could only nod and say, "I understand. Senior, you need not apologize; your help to me has been immense. No matter how things are now, if I ever get the chance in the future, I will still fulfill my promise."

Without Xuan Die, it's hard to say whether he has reached the Main God realm now; he might even have been killed by Hundun and sent back to the novice village.

This senior Yaohuang has bestowed too many favors on him; he has incurred enormous karma and should not continue staying here to burden her.

"Mm, I didn't misjudge you. As long as you survive this calamity, nothing will be able to stop you in the future. Go see Wu Xin Dao Zun—she is a direct disciple of the Dao Ancestor, existing since hundreds of millions of years ago, and perhaps she can help you resolve some troubles." Xuan Die showed a relieved expression and gave him a reminder.

"Ah? Wu Xin Dao Zun—hundreds of millions of years?" Xiao Feng heard this and felt dazed.

Isn't Wu Xin Dao Zun someone who only appeared out of nowhere tens of thousands of years ago?

Earlier, when Myriad Tribulations Pagoda mentioned her name, he found it strange: how could a Taotie treasure that slept for tens of thousands of years know a person who was just born tens of thousands of years ago?

He never expected Xuan Die's words would directly refresh his understanding of Wu Xin Dao Zun.

Myriad Tribulations Pagoda laughed and said, "Xiao Feng, you're still too young; Wu Xin Dao Zun is not as simple as you imagine. She comes from the same world as you, and her existence predates the entire Myriad Heavens. Originally she had already fallen; it was your human race's Xi Zu who fished her out of the river of time and revived her in this world."

Xiao Feng had a blank face, somewhat unable to comprehend such a level of story.

Older than the Myriad Heavens, already fallen before endless ages, and then... revived?

"Do you know what a spacetime rift is?" Xuan Die suddenly asked.

Xiao Feng nodded, "I know, it's a war zone; I also have a good friend who is an adventurer over there."

Feng Feng Shi comes from the spacetime rift; he remembers this very clearly.

Xuan Die said, "The spacetime rift is a branch of the river of time; beings that emerge from there—whether adventurers or any other identity—actually do not belong to the present age. They may come from the past or the future, but they all perished at some point. If you encounter them, you must be careful, for those who can be revived each have an incredible background; rashly provoking them could bring deadly disaster."

"Wow, that's scary..."

Xiao Feng tightened his neck.

It seems his guess with Da Bai was correct; Feng Feng Shi is not simple, having an eighth‑rank spirit beast as companion, which itself is a symbol of status.

Fortunately he hadn't offended her before; otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Then I'll go check out Yunchu Shan now."

Wu Xin Dao Zun's such special identity makes it worthwhile to go see her.

Moreover, speaking of it, he feels he should now be able to defeat Xun Shuang Xianzi, fulfilling the ten‑year promise early and thus settling a lingering concern.

Xuan Die nodded, a jade slice appearing in her hand, which she handed to Xiao Feng.

"Your strength has reached this level, and you already have many supreme treasures; I have nothing better to give you. This jade talisman contains part of my power, letting you temporarily wield venerable‑level strength. Against an opponent like Hundun, you might have a chance. It's also… a little final help for you."

Xiao Feng received it with both hands.

【Yaohuang Heart Jade】: Special item – using it grants 10% of Yaohuang Xuan Die's divine power, temporarily raising your realm to venerable level for 60 seconds (usable only once). After the effect ends, your level is permanently reduced by 10 and all attributes drop by 90% for 3 days.

This is a lifesaver!

Within 60 seconds you can transform into a venerable, then sacrifice a Dun Dun, carry a Miao Jie, and activate a Xuanwu battle body—simply invincible.

Compared to that, the side effects are negligible.

However, even with venerable‑level power, if the seven great beast gods all come together, he would still struggle to resist.

So this item must not be used unless absolutely necessary.

"Thank you, senior; I will surely not disappoint your expectations, and I will one day step onto the pinnacle." Xiao Feng said solemnly.

"Mm, go; don't return to the Little Cave Heaven for a while." Xuan Die slightly nodded, gave a reminder, indicating he could leave.

Xiao Feng understood that he could at any time be targeted by beast‑god venerables, and indeed the three secret realms cannot be returned to.

Venerable‑level powerhouses can forcibly enter secret realm spaces.

The Prestige Golden Seal mainly counters players who can infinitely resurrect.

And Venerable-level beings possess countless privileges throughout the Myriad Heavens Battlefield; unless it is an Eternal-level golden seal, nothing can stop them.

"Xiao Feng bid farewell." Xiao Feng took back the Myriad Tribulations Treasure Pagoda, made a salute to Xuan Die, withdrew from the sleeping quarters.

Xuan Die watched his retreating figure, feeling a myriad of emotions.

"This little monster is really becoming harder and harder to read. Sigh... If it weren't for my clan's bonds, I would really want to help him more; only when he attains the Dao in the future would he not forget me."
