<h4>Chapter 826: Chapter 826: Kain Bar</h4>


    Especially those with higher realms.


    In the path of cultivation, the higher the realm, the more difficult the cultivation bes.


    Starting from the Earth Rank, sometimes advancing just a small realm can be as hard as climbing to the heavens.


    Many Earth Rank martial artists often spend over ten years, if not decades, trying to advance a small realm.


    It’s inevitable, as the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is simply too scarce.


    And reaching the Earth Rank, every breakthrough requires a massive amount of spiritual energy.


    Thus, cultivators can only spend time slowly umting it.


    And often, umting once takes over ten years.


    This is a real disadvantage.


    Especially for older cultivators, for whom time is truly running out.


    But if there is Divine Spirit Wood, this situation can significantly change.


    Because the Divine Spirit Wood itself contains arge amount of spiritual energy.


    This energy is far purer than the spiritual energy in the world.


    The main thing is that cultivators can directly absorb it with no side effects.


    For cultivators, it’s simply a treasure beyond value.


    Especially for those above Earth Rank.


    Because just a small piece of Divine Spirit Wood can save them over ten years of cultivation time.


    This is extremely enticing.


    For cultivators, time is money, time is everything!


    Only with ample time can they strive for higher realms.


    Otherwise, when lifees to an end, everything will be in vain.


    As the saying goes, "An innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth!"


    It’s impossible for the Kane family, possessing such a treasure, not to be coveted and envied by outsiders!


    Given the Kane family’s strength and background, they theoretically needn’t fear any singr power.


    However, it’s not only one power coveting the Divine Spirit Wood!


    The entire Ancient Martial World of Europe is eyeing this sulent piece of meat.


    It’s simply too enticing.


    Initially, no one tore off the pretense.


    But continuously, powers came seeking to trade for some Divine Spirit Wood.


    Yet, the Kane family resolutely refused.


    They wouldn’t share the Divine Spirit Wood with outsiders, not even for an equal exchange.


    This selfish stance naturally strained the rtionships between the Kane family and other forces in Europe’s Ancient Martial World, making them hostile.


    There was even a time when several major European forces united andunched a war against the Kane family, seeking to divide the Divine Spirit Wood.


    However, the Kane family relied on their strong foundation to repel these major forces.


    Yet as a result, the Kane family suffered significant losses, requiring a long time to recover.


    From that moment on, the Kane family realized they couldn’t continue monopolizing this.


    If more such wars erupted, even with the Kane family’s profound resources, it wouldn’t have been sustainable.


    Consequently, following an internal unanimous vote within the Kane family.


    They finally decided not to monopolize the Divine Spirit Wood any longer, but to open it to the outside.


    Of course, this opening was conditional, not an indiscriminate gift.


    Instead, a certain amount of Divine Spirit Wood would be awarded to the ultimate winner in the form of apetition.


    Thispetition is held once every ten years.


    Cultivators worldwide, as long as their strength is below the Heaven Rank, can participate for a one million dor registration fee.


    The Kane family even gave thispetition a very grand name—Divine Spirit Festival!


    The introduction of the Divine Spirit Festival effectively resolved the conflicts between the Kane family and various forces.


    And through it, the Kane family amassed a tremendous amount of money.


    Think about it, held once every decade with Divine Spirit Wood as the reward, how many cultivators would it attract?


    With each costing a million dors, the total amounts to an astronomical figure.


    A reclusive ancient martial family like the Kane family originally didn’t have many industries in the mortal world, practically penniless.


    But by capitalizing on the Divine Spirit Festival.


    In recent years, the Kane family swiftly established a vastmercial empire in the mortal world, earning richly.


    It’s undeniable that the Kane family made a wise choice inunching the Divine Spirit Festival.


    By sharing a small amount of Divine Spirit Wood, it not only brought peace and harmony to the family but also earned them status and vast wealth.


    This is absolutely a win-win, risk-free deal.


    So the Kane family has continued the Divine Spirit Festival to this day.


    As of today, this is already the seventh Divine Spirit Festival!


    ...


    Near Tuck Forest, in a small town called De La.


    Logically, a small town near the Ancient Forest should be rather deserted.


    However, even as it reaches deep into the night.


    The whole town is still brightly lit and bustling.


    It’s as if it was a lively city, with the streets crowded with people.


    And these aren’t ordinary people; everyone is an ancient martial artist of considerable strength.


    No need to ask, these masters must be here for the Divine Spirit Festival.


    Because the Divine Spirit Festival is set to begin tomorrow.


    And De La Town is the closest to Tuck Forest.


    So it naturally bes the resting ce for many masters.


    Chen Feng and Ye Qianrou were no exceptions.


    The two also stayed in De La Town.


    While searching for a ce to stay, they also inquired about the Divine Spirit Festival, gaining a general idea about it.


    Especially when Chen Feng learned that the ultimate reward was Divine Spirit Wood, his eyes lit up even more.


    This was like a gift from the heavens!


    He had been worrying about how to stealthily take the Divine Spirit Wood from the Kane family’s protection.


    Now it seemed unnecessary, he just needed to sign up for the Divine Spirit Festival and win.


    With that, all problems could be easily resolved.


    This excited Chen Feng to the extreme, so much so that he couldn’t even bother to find a ce to sleep, and after learning the registration location, he quickly dragged Ye Qianrou along.


    On the easternmost side of De La Town, there is a bar named after Kane.


    And this Kane Bar is the registration location for the Divine Spirit Festival.


    Participants need onlye here, register their information, pay the registration fee, and receive an identity card topete normally!


    Chen Feng, with Ye Qianrou, hurried along the road until they finally reached the entrance of Kane Bar.


    Seeing the flow of people going in and out of the bar, Chen Feng shook his head with a wry smile.


    It seemed this was the most bustling ce in the whole town.


    After all, many ancient martial artists, like Chen Feng, had just arrived, so they could onlye to register at night.


    If they waited until tomorrow, registration would close.


    Amidst the crowded group, Chen Feng with Ye Qianrou squeezed for a long time, finally making it inside the bar...
