Chapter 825: Chapter 825: The Two Women’s Speculation, Exceeding the Population Task Quota

“Congratulations, you’ve become a Saint Entry.”

The Destiny Empress, with her arms folded, looked at Yin Rurong who had just successfully broken through, a smile hanging on her stunning face.

“Thanks to the Empress’s support.”

Yin Rurong bowed slightly, taking off the Tribulation Crossing Holy Armor from her body and returning it to the Destiny Empress.

“Keep this item for your use,” the Destiny Empress waved her hand, “With this holy armor, I can rest easy sending you to Shenzhou on a covert mission.”

“Thank you, Empress!” Yin Rurong felt deeply moved.

She didn’t regret betraying Shenzhou one bit.

In Shenzhou’s Tianmiao Holy Land, she had sat in the Holy Master’s seat for many years, but due to the lack of Tribulation Crossing Holy Weapons, she dared not face the tribulation and remained trapped at the Four-Turn Quasi-Saint level.

It could be said that she had reached the peak of her development within Shenzhou.

Continuing to break through was almost impossible.

Later, her only hope was cut off by Ye Feng, coupled with the split with her best friend and the various experiences of this time, Yin Rurong had long ceased to wish to stay in Shenzhou.

She had only one goal, and that was Saint Ascension!

To achieve her goal, she was willing to resort to any means.

Hence, when she betrayed Shenzhou, Yin Rurong felt no regret, but instead, felt increasingly fortunate.

“Empress, I shall return to Shenzhou now.”

Yin Rurong put on the Tribulation Crossing Armor again.

“Not so fast!”

The Destiny Empress extended her hand, hooking Yin Rurong’s delicate chin, “I still have a lot to talk to you about. If you leave just like that, I will feel very lonely.”

“Hehehe, I understand what you mean!”

Yin Rurong giggled.

Lotus Pond.

The two talked for a long time.

Yin Rurong learned of the existence of the Three Thousand Great Worlds and was greatly shocked; she learned about the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable’s soul transfer plan and heard many other matters.

“So, it turns out that Princess Hu Feifei attracted the Saint Ascension Tribulation because she acquired the Heart of Thunder from the Thunder Pool Grand Hall.”

“That means Ye Feng, holding the Heavenly Stele, can travel between Shenzhou and Suspended Mountain.”

Yin Rurong suddenly realized.

She went on to speculate:

“I also heard that Princess Hu Feifei could only face her tribulation because Ye Feng modified the Thunder Palace, making it operate beyond capacity, producing a Saint Ascension Tribulation every three years.”

“It seems that’s false!”

“Ye Feng didn’t actually modify the Thunder Palace. He just spread false news to glorify himself.”

“Pah! What self-righteousness.”

Yin Rurong expressed her disdain.

The Destiny Empress scoffed,

“Whether the Thunder Palace has been modified or not, I’m not quite sure, but no matter what, it’s impossible for it to produce a Saint Ascension Tribulation. Those from Shenzhou wishing to ascend can only use the Heart of Thunder.”

“I’ve already set up a Heavenly Net around the Thunder Pool Grand Hall. If Ye Feng dares to come again, I’ll ensure he won’t leave alive!”

“Rest assured on that matter.”

Saying this, the Destiny Empress arrogantly tilted up her chin, confident in her stance.

She wouldn’t dare claim she could kill Ye Feng.

After all, even she hadn’t yet figured out a method to deal with Ye Feng’s invincible defense.

But trapping Ye Feng wasn’t difficult.

“Your Highness, I admire your strategic planning,” praised Yin Rurong, her eyes filled with mirth.

…

Whitefloat City.

Shi Lei was tirelessly crafting a new city district, making swift progress.

Half a month later.

The area of Whitefloat City had doubled in size, with the capacity to accommodate over a hundred million more people.

Ye Feng once again entered the True Dragon Realm, employing his space divine skills, releasing a white cloud path that could connect both realms.

A short while later.

One hundred and fifty million people walked through the Cloud-Passage Pathway, entering Whitefloat City with excitement surging in their hearts.

Another wave of astonishment erupted.

At this time, the total population of Whitefloat City reached three hundred and forty million, just one hundred and sixty million short of the five hundred million target.

Nine Cities Star Cloud.

The Ancient Sacred True Dragon and the Star River Quasi-Saint were busily recruiting.

Another seven days passed.

The pair brought in another two hundred million people, temporarily housed in the True Dragon Realm, exceeding the task assigned by Ye Feng.

Shi Lei also took advantage of this gap to devote himself to drawing the city, finally expanding the urban area of Whitefloat City to a radius of a thousand miles.

This range was enough to accommodate ten billion people.

He, too, had exceeded the task!

Above Whitefloat City.

Ye Feng yawned.

Lowering his head, he looked down at Whitefloat City with its extraordinary momentum, lingering spiritual energy, clean and tidy streets, and elegant cultural environment; a look of satisfaction spread across his face as he could not help but smile.

“Very good, I’ve finally waited for this day.”

Ye Feng effortlessly tore through the void.

When he reappeared, he was above a vast plain in the True Dragon Realm, watching the people gathered there, carrying large and small bags.

One hundred and eighty million ordinary people.

Twenty million cultivators.

Their cultivation levels were generally in the Qi Refining Realm, a small part in the Element Gathering Realm, and a very few in the Spirit Sea Realm.

As for the Divine Origin Realm, there were only a handful.

“Let’s go, ascend to Whitefloat City!”

Once Ye Feng appeared, he issued a commanding voice akin to that of Heavenly Dao, resounding in everyone’s mind.

Everyone looked up.

They saw a towering figure, glowing all over, point a finger, and a thousand white cloud vortexes unfolded in the sky.

A moment later.

All were devoured by the vortexes.

Around Whitefloat City.

Dozens of giant white vortexes appeared, white cloud pathways stretching ten miles wide extended from the vortexes, reaching continuously to the new district of Whitefloat City.

The people stepped down.

Looking at this world like a fairy tale, everyone couldn’t help but exclaim in astonishment, even the dozens of Divine Origin Realm cultivators were intimidated by the powerful auras at the center of Whitefloat City.

“Sect Leader, the population has reached over 550 million.”

Half a day later.

Gong Qingqiu placed a thick book on the natural wood-colored table beside Ye Feng, reporting the situation.

“At present, everyone has been settled. In terms of population, we have indeed exceeded the task.”

Gong Qingqiu said once more.

“Very good!” Ye Feng nodded, “Now, Whitefloat City can apply for Four Star city certification, right?”

Gong Qingqiu hesitated for a moment, then said,

“The City Lord’s cultivation level, total population, and proportion of cultivators all meet the criteria; however, there are many other minor requirements left. I need some time to sort them out to ensure that nothing is overlooked.”

Ye Feng nodded in agreement, “Do that, get to it!”

“Yes.” Gong Qingqiu continued his busy work.

With a total population of over five hundred million, managing the sprawling urban expanse of a thousand miles around Whitefloat City was a significant challenge.

To handle this properly, Gong Qingqiu had specially divided Whitefloat City into three thousand districts.

Each Floating Garden corresponded to one district.

Each district had a manager who was directly responsible to the City Lord’s Mansion.

Their places of residence were these very Floating Gardens.

As long as each district manager worked diligently and responsibly, many difficulties would be easily overcome, and the complexity of management would be greatly reduced.

Several days later.

The people of Whitefloat City had all been settled and were performing their respective duties. Although occasional minor issues arose, they were not serious.

Whitefloat City was prospering day by day.

The day for the Four Star city certification was drawing ever nearer.

…

In the depths of the ocean.

Feng Chuan stood under a huge Tree of Life, observing the giant fruits cracking open, with nearly ten thousand mature second-generation reincarnators falling to the ground.

They all possessed cultivation levels.

The strongest had reached the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm.

The weakest were at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm.

The vast majority were in the Element Gathering Realm.

“They’ve finally been born!” Feng Chuan turned to Yin Rurong, “Tianmiao Holy Master, we can begin the next step of the plan.”

“Mhm.”

Yin Rurong nodded slightly, appearing very aloof, with just a casual wave of her hand, she instructed,

“Deploy your people from Tianji Pavilion to send all the second-generation reincarnators to various places in Shenzhou… To be safe, try to avoid making appearances near Whitefloat City.”

“Yes.” Feng Chuan hurriedly followed the orders.
