Chapter 607: Chapter 607: The Big Fat Orange Cat that Dined and Dashed, Eighteen Ancient Clans
“You’ve disappeared for over half a month, and I thought you might have run off with the carcasses of demonic beasts! So, I specifically came looking for you,”
Ye Feng lied.
He didn’t want to reveal that it was a serendipitous image presented by the Wind Spirit Pearl that led him here.
“What?”
“Over half a month?”
“Could it be that we were unconscious for so long?”
Xie Jiaren immediately widened her almond-shaped eyes in disbelief.
Next to her, Pang Haiyun quickly lowered her voice and said, “Jiaren, it’s all your fault for insisting on listening to that ancient beast’s words. If Sect Master Ye hadn’t come to save us, we might have been trampled to death by the ancient exotic beasts here.”
Hearing this, Ye Feng was utterly bewildered.
That ancient beast… what was that?
He didn’t feel like expending Wind Element Spirit Energy to divine any further and directly asked Xie Jiaren about the cause and consequences.
“Sect Master Ye, this is what happened,”
“Over half a month ago, I concocted an upgraded version of Supreme Grade spirit beast feed that could improve the cultivation level even after being consumed by a Demon King.”

“Then, an ancient beast resembling a cat was attracted by the scent. The little guy didn’t look formidable, but it was a genuine Demon King wanting to snatch my spirit beast feed.”
“Later, perhaps finding its conscience, it left a treasure map before it left.”
“So, I called Haiyun,”
“We slid along this nearby passageway for several days until we finally arrived here, but no sooner had we caught sight of the wandering ancient giant beasts than we were attacked by poisonous vines and passed out.”
“When we opened our eyes again, we saw you.”
Xie Jiaren explained the details of the incident.
“So that’s what happened!”
Ye Feng understood and nodded slightly.
He was very curious about the cat-shaped ancient exotic beast mentioned by Xie Jiaren and found its location with a strand of Wind Element Spirit Energy.
“Wait for me for a moment,”
Ye Feng performed a hand seal and used Space Great Shift to leave.
Thousands of miles away,
In the bustling County King City,
A fat orange cat, barely a meter tall, wearing clothes fit for human children, and donning a hat, sat on a chair like a human, holding a cup of hot tea in its chubby paws and began to drink.
“This is so delicious!”
After taking a sip, the fat orange cat lay back on the chair comfortably and patted its round belly with a hand.
“Hey, patron, time to pay…”
“Here’s a treasure map for you!”
The fat orange cat left behind a wrinkled treasure map, strutted away, leaving the teahouse owner in disarray amidst the wind.
Half an hour later,
“A stinky cat dares to dine and dash, brothers, let’s stew cat for dinner tonight!”
After dining and dashing numerous times, the fat orange cat was pursued by a group of cultivators at the Spirit Sea Realm. It held onto the hat on its head with one paw while using the other three to flee at a rapid pace.
Whoosh!
Suddenly a golden light appeared, blocking the fat orange cat’s path.
“It’s Sect Master Ye!”
The cultivators of County King City recognized the suddenly appearing Ye Feng and bowed in salute.
“I’ll pay for this fat orange cat,”
Ye Feng grabbed the fat orange cat by the scruff of the neck, lifting it up, while his other hand left behind some Spirit Stones, then performed a hand seal and disappeared in a flash of golden light.
“Sect Master Ye took away the fat orange cat that ate without paying,”
“Who cares, as long as Sect Master Ye paid, we’re not at a loss, right?”
“That’s true indeed!”
“We actually spoke with Sect Master Ye, tonight, I can boast about it in front of my wife.”
People were discussing animatedly.
Tens of thousands of miles underground.
Ye Feng appeared beside Xie Jiaren and Pang Haiyun, holding Fat Orange Cat, and dropped it to the ground, saying, “It was this fellow that gave you the treasure map, right?”
“Ah, you big fat orange!”
“Don’t think we can’t recognize you just because you’re wearing clothes!”
“How dare you deceive us into this godforsaken place, causing us to be unconscious for half a month, you’re asking for a beating!”
Recognizing Fat Orange Cat, Pang Haiyun and Xie Jiaren rushed over and started beating it up.
“How terrifying!”
Though Fat Orange Cat was a Demon King, at that moment it lay on the ground, shivering, because it was afraid of Ye Feng.
After entering the Human Race world, Fat Orange Cat had heard Ye Feng’s name and seen his portrait more than once.
It knew that he was a deeply unfathomable human Great Power!
Especially when Ye Feng was holding it and used Space Great Shift, Fat Orange Cat was utterly astonished.
Shifting tens of thousands of miles in a single move?
This strength, could it be much stronger than those undying elders of the eighteen Ancient Tribes underground?
It was considering all this that Fat Orange Cat did not dare to get angry, and could only let Xie Jiaren and Pang Haiyun hit it.
However.
After all, it was still a Demon King and was not in the least afraid of Xie Jiaren and Pang Haiyun who were at the Element Gathering Realm, perceiving their beating as little more than tickling.
“Alright, stop hitting, stop hitting now!”
Ye Feng waved his hand, stopping the furious Xie Jiaren and Pang Haiyun, and looked at Fat Orange Cat.
“Little kitty, what’s your name?”
“Reporting to Master Ye, my name is Cat Pudding, but my nickname is Little Orange.”
“Little Chrysanthemum… Pfft!”
Xie Jiaren burst out laughing.
Fat Orange Cat, Cat Pudding, immediately stood with hands on hips and glared, saying, “It’s the orange of an orange cat, not the chrysanthemum!”
“Pfft, I still want to laugh.” Xie Jiaren mocked mercilessly.
Fat Orange Cat really wanted to scratch her, but it was afraid of being slapped to death by Ye Feng, so it just had to bear it.
“What’s going on with this world?”
Ye Feng looked around, feeling eighteen ancient and extremely ancient auras in this old underground world.
“Reporting to Master Ye, this is a transmission site built by the eighteen Ancient Tribes, also called the Little Desolate Realm,” said Fat Orange Cat, not daring to withhold anything.
“What is the eighteen Ancient Tribes?” Ye Feng was very curious.
Xie Jiaren and Pang Haiyun also blinked, looking curious and all ears.
Fat Orange Cat, Cat Pudding, explained:
“Master Ye comes from the present age, so it’s very normal for you not to know about the eighteen Ancient Tribes. Countless years ago, the Southern River Basin above was actually a prosperous cultivation area, with eighteen Ancient Tribes in power.”
“But one day, a terrible war broke out in the predecessor of the Southern River Basin, the masters of the eighteen Ancient Tribes all came out and were still killed.”
“The whole Southern River Basin was also destroyed.”
“Even the only Super Large Spirit Vein that existed back then shattered, with its Spiritual Vein Core divided among the eighteen Ancient Tribes, leading to the rapid decline of the previously prosperous Southern River Basin’s predecessor.”
“Later, the eighteen Ancient Tribes hollowed out this place, forming the Little Desolate Realm, and moved the remnants of the Spirit Vein here, making this a new, thriving cultivation world.”
“As for the eighteen Ancient Tribes, they placed the gates that could lead to the Cave Heaven Worlds they inhabited in certain areas of the Little Desolate Realm, isolating themselves from the outside world.”
“It is said that the elders of the eighteen Ancient Tribes have foreseen that many years later, the Southern River Basin will return to its peak and become suitable for cultivation; at that time, they will re-emerge into the world.”
“All of this has been passed down by my ancestors,” Cat Pudding, the Fat Orange Cat, added lastly.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng, Xie Jiaren, and Pang Haiyun all widened their eyes, their faces full of disbelief.
An ancient war?
The eighteen Ancient Tribes?
The more they thought about it, the more shocked they became.
