The Sacred Ruins - Page 526/592

Chu Feng saw everything clearly after arriving at the seafloor secret realm once again. The true Dragon Lair was indeed unfathomable. Even now it was difficult for him to charge in.

There were fields of Thunderstruck Trees in the depths of the ruins and draconic qi surged in the depths of the stone cave. The atmosphere was truly extraordinary.

Dragoness had long since left, leaving Chu Feng alone here. His heart was somewhat stirred as he focused his gaze and golden lights shot out from his fiery eyes.

Within the mysterious cave, there was a little tree with a dragon head and horns growing from it. It was just like a dragon whelp growing slowly through the ages, vague but also very tangible. That was a Dragon Embryo Tree.

Moreover, there was a beautiful flower with dazzling petals, each akin to a dragon’s scale growing reverse. That was a Reverse Scale Flower—some were bright red like blood, some were surging purple mist while others were resplendent like gold.

“Good stuff!” Chu Feng sighed lightly. Although he was moved, he didn’t charge in forcefully because he knew the ins and outs of this place.

Back then, a domain master had come here with great ambitions but left with lifelong regrets because he simply couldn’t take the fortunes here.

Now Chu Feng was also a domain master, but he might die if he seized the fortunes forcefully.

As for the Thunderstruck Trees and Dragon Blood Grass outside of the cave, he could take some of them.

“It won’t be able to escape in the end. As my attainments in the field of domains increase continuously, this place will eventually become my place of rebirth!” Chu Feng revealed a resolute expression.

In the past, that domain master had come here not to pick medicines but to construct a special domain to nurture himself and achieve supreme evolution!

This was nonsense. There were true examples of such cases.

There was once a devilish domain genius who had once laid down a world-shaking self-nurturing ground using 80 domains. He formed an area with frighteningly dense vitality around an abandoned phoenix nest. In the end, he stayed within the nest, brought about numerous rebirth evolutions, and became a great character of the generation in the end.

This kind of evolutionary path was extremely odd. He was much bolder—he didn’t eat mutant fruits but instead devoured the mountains and rivers. Of course, he had also borrowed the phoenix nest’s rebirth abilities.

The True Dragon’s Lair naturally also possessed such a divine and secret power.

Back then, the great domain master took a fancy to this place, but unfortunately, his abilities weren’t enough. In the end, he wasn’t able to utilize this place.

Chu Feng was confident that, once his domain attainments were deeper, he would be able to set this place up and make it a place where he would rise to power.

“I should stop thinking about it for the time being!” Chu Feng was resolute and quickly calmed himself down.

Afterward, he began to cultivate here. He had gained much during the opening of the Eastern Sea cave residence and became the final winner. It was worth celebrating.

He had gotten his hands on some rare materials and naturally, he hoped to convert them into strength. Otherwise, it was all empty.

The Eastern Violet Qi Fist was one of the oldest manuals of this world. Now that it had appeared once again, Chu Feng was full of expectation because he had already figured out that this was a top-grade combat technique!

Presently, he was deducing the art by using it repeatedly and analyzing it in his mind. He was studying it earnestly.

Before long, the violet qi became so thick that it drowned the entire area and wouldn’t disperse. It was as though a large patch of mist had covered the region.

Bang!

Boom!

Very soon, loud sounds were heard like thousand-layered waves striking the heavens. The sounds were deafening as though mountains were exploding.

Chu Feng was glowing within the purple mist. His fist was jade-white as he applied the technique, but the force caused even the air to distort and explode continuously.

Afterward, the place became silent once again. He was still brandishing his fists, but his movements had slowed down and would even pause from time to time.

Chu Feng studied the fist art for an entire two days and nights. He forgot everything else and stared only at the stone tablet. The only things on his mind were the words recorded in this ancient fist manual.

In the end, he exhaled deeply and stopped his practice.

His fist intent was majestic. He had comprehended the art but a real battle was needed for him to understand thoroughly and reach the apex.

Afterward, he ate a Golden Snake Fruit—he could sense a power within this vessels but the effects weren’t very powerful.

Chu Feng nodded. There were two reasons for this. Everyone knew the first reason; this fruit had great effects on the serpent race, but not so much for the others. Secondly, Yaoyao had told him that he was a pure descendant. It was likely that he had achieved atavism.

“It seems I should exchange these Golden Snake Fruits for other mutant fruits.”

Afterwards, Chu Feng began to practice the Heavenly Halberd Nine Forms. He happened to have a big white banner on him, one which he had seized from one of the Xilin geniuses.

This weapon seemed heavy, but it was in fact very light because it was a weapon used in conjunction with spiritual power.

Although it was very light, it was also very sharp. When waved by Chu Feng, it was as though a silver river pouring out to envelope the air—it was extremely resplendent and surging with killing intent.

“The Heavenly Halberd Nine Forms is indeed extraordinary. It’s practically out of this world!”

No wonder it was said that the vermilion bird ancestor grasped the Heavenly Halberd Nine Forms and swept through half the cosmos. At that time, it was known as a peerless bird king of the generation.

Those families from the starry skies had fulfilled Chu Feng’s requests and completed the nine forms for him.

Presently, Chu Feng was employing them one by one. The big halberd drew out profound trajectories. Its every move was complex and possessed thousands of variations if one were to study it in detail.

Anyone who thought there were only nine forms would be gravely mistaken. The nine fixed patterns were accompanied by all types of blossoming runes to display boundless possibilities!

Chu Feng was immersed within it and only stopped after two days and two nights. He memorized the myriad variations and matched all types of mysterious runes with the halberd in his mind.

He still required a true battle to test the art and, moreover, two days and nights wasn’t quite enough to thoroughly study such secret volumes.

He knew that there would be a lot of battles in the future. Presently, he had sowed the seeds of his Eastern Violet Qi Fist and the Heavenly Halberd Nine Forms. These two secret arts would light up when he clashed against the young god’s men and mature amidst the blood and flames.

Afterwards, Chu Feng produced a piece of jade. It was sparkling, translucent and contained a drop of black fluid within. This was the Hellish Ant Elixir that could strengthen one’s constitution!

Chu Feng would never be miserly about such a beneficial item.

After concluding his study of the fist manual and Heavenly Halberd Nine Forms, he crushed the jade, poured the glowing liquid into his mouth and swallowed it.

The taste wasn’t that great. It was somewhat tart and a bitter.

But this Hellish Ant Elixir’s effects were astonishingly good. Just within this short moment, Chu Feng’s body erupted with black light as though his entire body had been painted black.

Moreover, a terrifying entity appeared within this black radiance. It was a Hellish Ant, or to be more precise, it was the ant’s seal. Its image appeared as though it were real.

Afterwards, the black light attacked. It entered Chu Feng’s flesh and blood to reach his organs and marrow. He was baptized once over by the black light.

Chu Feng’s body couldn’t stop trembling because his metabolism was too fast. It was rather terrifying. Sweat flowed freely and his pores continuously expunged mucus as his cellular activity increased dramatically.

At this moment, his entire body felt tired and painful as his constitution underwent an upgrade.

This body was shaking and his bones were emitting metallic sounds. Chu Feng circulated his breathing technique to match the changes and make himself even stronger.

The Hellish Ant Elixir was indeed extraordinary. It activated the origin within his body and invoked a transformation.

When everything stopped in the end, the black glow receded and his body became increasingly white. He was suffused with a gentle, treasured halo.

“My power and physical strength have increased by six times. The effects are indeed miraculous!” Chu Feng sighed in admiration.

He didn’t stop there and continued to take the second drop of Hellish Ant Elixir. Black light drowned him once again as though he were a demonic god standing within a black sun.

It was still effective this time but unfortunately, the upgrade wasn’t quite evident.

The two continuous drops of Hellish Ant Elixir upgraded his strength and physique by about seven times.

“This is likely the limit for the current phase.” Chu Feng muttered to himself. No wonder people said one drop of Hellish Ant Elixir was enough and it was indeed true.

Chu Feng didn’t linger and exited isolation immediately.

He drilled out of the sea with a splash and kicked up giant waves. Afterward, he sensed that the atmosphere over the entire sea region was somewhat tense.

That was because some big things had happened during his absence.

Some people from the outer realm had arrived through the star passages. They were only lacking the final resolution and could cross over at a moment’s notice. Many native entities felt apprehensive.

In the outer realms, there was a beautiful white-robed lady. Relatively speaking, her hair wasn’t very long and only reached her snow-white neck. She was accompanied by an indifferent and calm demeanor as she strode through space outside of earth, each of her steps causing a golden lotus to bloom in the void. That was an energy form.

As she walked on, a field of golden lotuses swayed gently amidst a shower of golden light.

She wasn’t alone. There was a group following behind her, of which she was the leader.

“When does the demon hunting begin?!” She muttered to her self in cosmic language. Without a photon computer, those on earth would never understand.

In truth, her group wasn’t the first to arrive; there were others. The young man nearby for instance—he who looked like a Daoist in his twenties, but his deep eyes seemed to have undergone the vicissitudes of time and his entire body was golden in color.

There was similarly a group of people behind his young man and all of them possessed extraordinary strength.

At this time a blue-robed young lady also walked over with a group of people in two. A faint smile appeared on her face as she said, “We have a golden arhat level character leading the group. But can we really enter this planet’s main space after mustering such a force?”

These were people from famous orthodoxies who came from high-ranking planets. Their divine sons and saintesses were once captured and sold off by Chu Feng.

In the end, every family had to pay exorbitant ransom to exchange their descendants. But how could they accept being blackmailed like so?

Now some of those powers had formed an alliance and mobilized a group led by a golden arhat, poised to descend onto earth.

“Rest assured, there will be a chance for us to enter earth’s main space. Wait patiently.” At this moment, the golden-haired young man spoke. He had his hands clasped behind his back as he stood outside of earth with eyes like electricity. He also had a group behind him.

Batch after batch, there were hundreds of such units and each was comprised of at least 20 to 30 people.

Not all of them were visitors from the sects of the kidnapped divine sons and saintesses; there were also bounty hunters and mercenaries. The composition was quite complex.
