Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 530 - 525: Hun Yuan Green Lotus and the Yin-Yang Realm
```
The azure lotus overflowed with brilliance, and a single whiff of its dense medicinal fragrance was enough to send shivers through one's body; this was the Hun Yuan Green Lotus that Ye Feng had seized on the Outer Battlefield!
Yu Feiyu curiously gazed at the Hun Yuan Green Lotus in Ye Feng's hands. She might not recognize what it was, but she could sense that it was definitely extraordinary. Merely inhaling a whiff of its medicinal fragrance, she felt a trace of Spirit Essence added to her body.
At that moment, Old Man Huang Niu also let out a surprised "Eh?": "Is this... the Hun Yuan Green Lotus!?"
"It is said that the Hun Yuan Green Lotus can allow the person who consumes it to leap into a cultivator's realm in one fell swoop. If one has broken meridians, consuming the Hun Yuan Green Lotus can also make a full recovery— even potentially causing cultivation level to surge again, with no side effects whatsoever. Now, this is a remarkable thing!"
Old Man Huang Niu's eyes flickered, clearly aware of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus's exceptionality.
It was not surprising that Old Man Huang Niu knew of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus. Ye Feng nodded, "Senior, this indeed is the Hun Yuan Green Lotus. The lotus seeds of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus are also known as sacred healing medicine. I seized it in the Outer Battlefield before, and I want to try giving it to Qingyan to see if it can repair the wounds on her divine soul in the Sea of Consciousness."

This was also the reason why he returned from the Outer Battlefield first. He wanted to let Hong Qingyan try the lotus seeds of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus first to see if her injuries could be healed. Previously on the Outer Battlefield, the leader who was driven mad, Gai Jiuyou, had also become conscious again after consuming a lotus seed, which showed that the reputation of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus as a sacred healing herb was no joke.
In general, those who experience deviation either die from corruption or, like Gai Jiuyou, become possessed, their personality drastically changes like becoming a different person, making it very hard to recover.
Yu Feiyu, standing to the side with her mouth slightly agape, was quite astonished. She had not expected the azure lotus in Ye Feng's hand to be so precious. Looking at Hong Qingyan on the sickbed, her eyes filled with a touch of envy.
If the one lying there was me, would Big Brother Ye treat me with the same care?
Yu Feiyu had heard about the dangers of the Outer Battlefield. She could imagine that for Ye Feng, seizing the Hun Yuan Green Lotus must not have been easy, and yet he made a special trip back just to bring the lotus seed.
Ye Feng hadn't thought so much about it as he was preparing to pick a lotus seed to give to Hong Qingyan, and just then, Old Man Huang Niu suddenly spoke up, "Kid Ye, wait a moment!"
Ye Feng's hand froze in midair, looking at Old Man Huang Niu with some confusion. He saw the old man furrowing his brows as if recalling something.
Ye Feng couldn't help asking, "What's the matter, senior? Is there a problem?"
Old Man Huang Niu raised his eyebrows, then looked very seriously at the Hun Yuan Green Lotus and said, "This Hun Yuan Green Lotus has quite a history!"
Ye Feng was stunned. A history?
What kind of history?
Fixating on the Hun Yuan Green Lotus, Old Man Huang Niu continued, "Hun Yuan Green Lotus is not the kind that appears once every thousand or ten thousand years as legends claim, but instead it blooms every thousand years, and there are not just one, but nine lotuses!"
"Nine lotuses!?" Ye Feng was shocked. Such a supreme sacred herb actually appeared every thousand years, and when it did, there were nine lotuses?
Old Man Huang Niu nodded slightly, remembering, and said, "Yes, nine lotuses. But I've read in ancient texts that when nine Hun Yuan Green Lotuses grow, and all nine are united, they break through Yin and Yang!"
Nine Hun Yuan Green Lotuses grow, and all nine united will break through Yin and Yang!
"Break through Yin and Yang..."
Ye Feng repeated, then widened his eyes, speaking hastily with short breaths, "Senior, does breaking through Yin and Yang refer to the legendary Yin-Yang Realm!?"
Yu Feiyu, who was beside him, was completely bewildered by their talk of Yin-Yang Realm, as she didn't understand it at all.
Ye Feng explained gravely, "Feiyu, you might not be very clear about the realms of cultivators yet."
"For cultivators in the entry-level stage, our foundation establishment stage is about continually refining and transforming Spirit Essence. Afterward, Spirit Essence solidifies into a Golden Core, allowing one to wield the power of Spirit Essence, also known as the Power of the Golden Core, which is what we call the Grandmasters of the Golden Core Realm!"
"In the Golden Core Realm, the goal is to transform Spirit Essence into the Power of Yin and Yang. When all Spirit Essence is altered into the Power of Yin and Yang, that is when one can condense the legendary Yin-Yang Divine Body, traversing between the Yin and Yang of this world, and potentially reaching the legendary Undying State!"
Yu Feiyu's eyes lit up with realization, and she was incredibly astonished, "The Undying State, so reaching the Yin-Yang Realm means becoming immortal and undying?"
Before Ye Feng could speak, Old Man Huang Niu laughed, "Silly girl, who can truly be immortal and undying? Although the Yin-Yang Realm is said to be immortal and undying, it merely means having a Yin-Yang Divine Body. The specifics are beyond your reach right now, and there's no need to understand so much."
"For two youngsters who haven't reached the Golden Core Realm, the Yin-Yang Realm is even farther away, so don't think about such things."
Yu Feiyu stuck out her tongue. Just as Old Man Huang Niu said, she wasn't even a Golden Core, so indeed there was no need to consider these matters.
But Ye Feng's gaze was burning with determination. He would definitely reach the Yin-Yang Realm!
"Senior, does that mean that if I can find all nine Hun Yuan Green Lotuses, I could possibly..."
Ye Feng asked with some expectation in his eyes.
But before he could finish, Old Man Huang Niu cut him off, "Impossible. No one has ever been able to find all nine Hun Yuan Green Lotuses. Over the past two thousand years, only eight have been found by someone, and nobody has been able to locate the ninth, which is said to be the supreme lotus among the nine Hun Yuan Green Lotuses. It's very likely to be in Alien Space-Time!"
Alien Space-Time!
Ye Feng was again shaken. It seemed plausible; otherwise, why hadn't the ninth lotus been found for two thousand years? Alien Space-Time...
Ye Feng smiled wryly, as Alien Space-Time was still an unknown to him.

"However, Kid Ye, you could also try collecting them," Old Man Huang Niu said. "With each additional Azure Lotus you gather, the effect becomes stronger. Even if you don't get all nine, gathering eight would greatly enhance the Cultivation Level of anyone in the Yin-Yang Realm."
It seemed that Old Man Huang Niu had seen through Ye Feng's thoughts and comforted him accordingly.
"Judging by the time, these years are indeed the seasons for the Hun Yuan Green Lotus to appear. If you enter the Outer Battlefield again, you could try to collect them all. Who knows, you might even find the ninth one."
Old Man Huang Niu said with a smile, a premonition faintly forming in his heart that Ye Feng might really have a chance to find the ninth lotus, considering his heaven-defying luck.
Ye Feng nodded and picked off a seed of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus, "Let's not worry about these things right now. I will keep the Hun Yuan Green Lotus for later; first, let's see its effect on Qingyan."
Without saying anything more, Old Man Huang Niu watched as Ye Feng administered the lotus seed to Hong Qingyan. The seed melted as soon as it entered her mouth, flowing directly into her body.
The moment Hong Qingyan ingested the Hun Yuan Green Lotus, her body emitted a faint green glow. Ye Feng's eyes brightened slightly, for he knew this meant the medicine was starting to work. Her complexion also began to grow rosier with the green light.
But the faint green glow lasted only a short while before fading. Hong Qingyan remained unconscious, still not awakening.
Seeing this, Ye Feng was slightly disheartened. It seemed that even the Hun Yuan Green Lotus seed had a limited effect on Hong Qingyan. The strain of using the Wings of Light twice had been too great, and not even the Hun Yuan Green Lotus seed could wake her.
At that moment, Yu Feiyu came over to Ye Feng and took his hand.
"Big Brother Ye, Sister Qingyan will surely wake up soon, so don't worry too much," she said to comfort him.
Yu Feiyu offered reassurance.
Ye Feng nodded. At this point, there was no other solution; all he could do was wait quietly.
There was definitely no need to worry about Hong Qingyan's safety in the Northwest Little Mountain Village; all that could be done now was to wait for her body to heal itself.
After spending a while in the Northwest Little Mountain Village and sharing a meal with Yu Feiyu, Ye Feng left.
When Ye Feng returned to Northern Cloud Residence, he issued an order, "Summon Sima Zhantian, Xiao Chuanqi, Leng Wuming, Shadow, Gai Jiuyou, and Cao Tian at once to see me!"
A moment later, the six, including Sima Zhantian, flew to Ye Feng and knelt on one knee before him.
"My Lord!"
Cao Tian was the descendant of Cao Yi, Boss Cao.
Ye Feng glanced at his people. On their last venture to the Outer Battlefield, everyone had made considerable gains, nearly reaching or approaching the Half-Step Golden Core Realm, but this was far from enough!
"Rest for a day. Tomorrow, we return to the Outer Battlefield!" Ye Feng declared solemnly.
After a visit to the Outer Battlefield, Ye Feng had realized that to advance their abilities, they must face the challenges in that perilous place, filled with life or death situations and opportunities. Remaining in Xuanyuan Nation would no longer facilitate progress.
The Outer Battlefield was an essential destination. Knowing that the Great Wall of Heaven could hold for at most three more years, Ye Feng felt an urgent need to increase their strength.
In three years, the situation would drastically change. To survive the upcoming upheavals, they must become stronger. Only by empowering himself could he protect Hong Qingyan and his friends, and possibly safeguard Xuanyuan Nation itself.
"Understood!"
The group responded in unison, yet none left right away but remained kneeling on the ground.
Ye Feng frowned at them, "Why aren't you resting? Is there something else?"
Xiao Chuanqi and Sima Zhantian exchanged glances, and it was Xiao Chuanqi who finally spoke up.
"My Lord, we have a request!" he said, his voice grave.
Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, "Go ahead."
Xiao Chuanqi suddenly looked up, his eyes sparkling with determination, "My Lord, after careful consideration, we six wish to ask for your permission to part ways and seek our own trials after entering the Outer Battlefield!"
"Impossible!"
Ye Feng immediately refused. His face hardening, he said, "It's suicide to allow you six to venture alone in the treacherous Outer Battlefield. With threats from the Fusang Yin-Yang Hall, the Western Vampire Divine Court, and the wizards from Snow Wolf Country, you would surely be besieged if encountered alone. Moreover, if you find yourself in a crisis, the delay in support is far too dangerous."
Ye Feng shook his head, firmly disagreeing. He knew Xiao Chuanqi and the others wanted to improve their strength through solo trials, but by staying by his side, they could also gain strength and have a higher survival rate working together in the Outer Battlefield.
