The Sacred Ruins

There was a deep, dark cave. It looked to be quite old, and the traces of the years were evident upon it. It was suffused with chaotic energy and all kinds of lights flickered around it.

Was this the cave of reincarnation?

Chu Feng was suspicious. Was he hallucinating after swallowing this mysterious scarlet light? He felt something odd as though he had arrived at the end of the reincarnation path and was standing at the cave.

The path in front was long and mysterious. Back then, he didn’t dare go in because he didn’t want to reincarnate. He was afraid that he could no longer turn back and instead reach the next life.

Now it seemed there was something good inside the cave, and there were a lot of them!

Buzz!

Unfortunately, Chu Feng was dragged back to reality after the brief moment of hallucination. He had been ejected from that state.

Afterward, he found himself akin to a stove. Not to mention his pores, even his hair, lashes, and even his teeth were shooting out divine light.

His entire body was like a burning sun. It was too intense!

Chu Feng circulated the Robbery Induction Breathing Technique to support evolution. He didn’t consume any mutant fruits or pollen. He was able to evolve violently and improve his constitution just by devouring a wisp of light.

“Who goes there?!”

Several figures ran over and glared at Chu Feng in alarmed anger. They had come chasing the scarlet light only to witness this scene. They immediately connected the dots and realized that this person had swallowed their prize.

Chu Feng paid them no attention. He was currently in the process of transformation. He could clearly feel the vital stats throughout his body increasing drastically.

The cloudeater realm stabilized immediately and formed a firm evolutionary foundation. His physical strength improved explosively!

But his tendons and organs were still being strengthened. This made him frown because he didn’t want to fight these people at the moment. He needed to complete this process in silence.

“Young man, who are you? Did you swallow that beam of light?”

“What’s the point in talking to him? Slaughter him!” Another person had quite a violent temper. He drew a scarlet divine blade and swung to toward Chu Feng.

Swoosh!

Chu Feng took action. He used the World’s End Near at Hand and escaped immediately. He didn’t want to fight because he hoped to finish his evolution in peace.

“Where are you going? Stop!” Those behind him gave chase immediately.

“Quick, inform Wei Changhe and the others. The fortune in the secret realm has been stolen. We have to chase him down!”

The group quickly realized their comrades had been killed after seeing the remains of their clansmen in the form of human-shaped piles of ashes.

However, they soon lost track of Chu Feng. The latter was simply too fast after merging with the beam of light. His movements were akin to flashes of lightning.

In the end, he vanished.

He tossed out magnetic stones in a deserted place and set up a domain to hide. There, he continued his evolution in peace.

Outside, the group of nine was seething with killing intent as they searched high and low for him in the dimensional space.

One of them called Wei Changhe was on the verge of insanity. He was an invincible genius from the race favored by Wei Heng. He wasn’t famous in the outside world, but his talents were actually extremely good.

Today, he was only one step away from the transformation realm. Moreover, there were several old geniuses at the transformation realm who had come to assist.

Wei Changhe was absolutely furious after hearing that wisp of light had been swallowed by someone.

He could’ve entered the transformation realm long ago, but he had been suppressing his realm for this fortune. In the end, he was left with nothing to show for it.

“Dig three feet deep everywhere until he’s found. Since he’s devoured the light, I’ll just swallow him whole!” Wei Changhe roared.

The nine experts were all from Wei Heng’s lineage. They searched frantically, but in the end, they found that the exit had been sealed. Their expressions and hearts became gloomy.

“Is this brat planning to deal with us? He’s actually blocked the exit!”

“This is bad, we’ve been isolated from the outside world. I can’t contact anyone.”

For a moment, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.

Within the domain, Chu Feng remained immobile, but yang energy surged about him in a resplendent manner. He was radiant and hot, almost as though a human-shaped sun was burning out.

Boom!

In the end, Chu Feng stood up with surging fighting spirit. Energy swelled within him, granting him an explosive increase in strength. He really had no need to fear anyone from the same generation.

However, his appearance had grown even more handsome. His eyes were as clear as crystal without a single blemish. His entire person looked even more harmless.

A fourteen-year-old who had entered the cloudeater realm was simply too extraordinary. He looked refined and elegant, almost as though he wasn’t from the mortal world.

Bang!

He broke out of the domain. He was like a dazzling lighthouse with terrifying energy fluctuations and brilliant radiance around him.

“There!”

The people had discovered him. Immediately, they called out for the others to surround and attack him.

Chu Feng sneered, “You’re not running even after seeing me?”

“Swoosh!” He stepped forth to meet them like a bolt of lightning and attacked proactively.

“Brat, hand over your life!” Someone shouted. He held an unopen heaven-collecting umbrella which he used as a spear.

However, he was panicked after sensing Chu Feng’s aura. The umbrella opened as a defensive measure.

But it was too late. Chu Feng whipped out a red blade which tore through the void and hacked out like a flash of lightning. With a clang, the umbrella was slashed into two, and following it, the man’s body. A rain of blood ensued.

A single slash had ended one of Wei Heng’s descendants.

“This…” The others were furious. At the same time, they were frightened at this terrifying youth.

“You’re Wu Lunhui?!” Finally, one of them recognized Chu Feng. Because they had come later, they had heard about this young superstar expert and seen his photos.

“That sword… it’s the same as Chu Feng’s!”

“This grandpa is Chu Feng! I’ll let you understand before you die!” Chu Feng laughed. However, his face was young and tender, while his eyes were big and clear. Although he was trying his best to assume a violent stance, there was simply no valiant aura about him.

“Little bastard, die!” An old man at the transformation realm appeared. He hurled a black flying knife which carried with it an aura of death.

“Trying to kill me? You’re really too far off!” Chu Feng’s other hand swept over with the Spirit Blood Banner and blocked the flying knife. The projectile trembled and turned dark, immediately destroyed by the secret treasure of the spirit race.

Buzz!

The Spirit Blood Banner looked like a river of blood as it swept through space. The old genius started screaming, but what horrified him was that he had no way to escape.

“Pfft!” One of his arms was wrapped around by the banner. He let out a miserable scream as he started withering at a rapid pace. He had no choice but to endure the pain, cut off his arm and flee.

However, Chu Feng’s other hand arrived with the Reincarnation Blade and cut off his head.

They had only begun exchanging blows when two people had fallen.

Wei Changhe walked over, causing the ground to tremble with every step. He had already broken through just now and entered the transformation realm. That was because he had already realized that he was not fated to have the wisp of light.

Especially after seeing the exit blocked, he realized he had encountered a vicious person intent on killing all of them. He thus threw caution to the wind and used the gap just now to advance.

“Wu Lunhui, Chu Feng, get here!” Wei Changhe’s heart was dripping with blood. He was only one step away when the light was snatched from him and devoured. This filled his heart with hate!

Chu Feng was serious. He knew that this person was extraordinarily powerful, much more so than the Xilin divine son he had killed back then. This person warranted his seriousness.

Boom!

A great battle ensued.

Wei Changhe had a knot in his heart because he was Wei Heng’s chosen one. The latter had taught him before and planned to have him kill Chu Feng in the future. Now that they had run into each other, both old and new enmities arose in his heart, and he wanted nothing more than to take Chu Feng’s head.

Lighting Fist!

Chu Feng erupted with power on sight. No matter who it was, he wouldn’t take them lightly. He went all out with the Yang-Realm’s divine art. The attack was naturally terrifying!

In a moment, yang energy surged to the astonishment of everyone here. They were incomparably apprehensive in the face of this wondrous art.

In truth, Wei Heng had already taught Wei Changhe a forbidden art called Blood Dissolution Divine Art. As long as he could lock onto the other party’s blood energy, he would be able to devour it.

This was Wei Heng’s own invention. He had taught it to Wei Changhe in order to deal with Chu Feng.

However, Chu Feng’s body was suffused with rolling yang energy. No matter how Wei Changhe tried, he couldn’t lock onto him. The art became useless as there was no way to absorb even a strand of Chu Feng’s vitality.

Boom!

In the end, after over a hundred moves, Chu Feng’s Lightning Fist struck the man’s arm, causing it to explode. Wei Changhe was flung away immediately in great misery.

“Kill!” The people around him attacked.

Just now, Wei Changhe was proud and arrogant. He wanted to kill Chu Feng on his own and get rid of the knot in his heart. He asked the others to stay their hands because he wanted to prove himself. In the end, he failed miserably.

“What Xilin genius? You guys are just not enough!” Chu Feng added, “If your evolutionary levels weren’t higher than mine, I could’ve killed all of you in one slap.”

He was fighting seven powerful experts alone without the slightest of rest. Even so, he was rather calm as he displayed all of his wondrous arts.

He had reached a certain comprehension after merging with the mysterious light and derived a mysterious art. The attack blasted out with just a raise of Chu Feng’s hands.

A stone cave appeared vaguely in front of Chu Feng’s palm and immediately swallowed three of the enemies.

The cave was identical to the one at the end of the reincarnation cave. Even Chu Feng himself had no idea how powerful this secret art was. He was taking it out for a practice run at the moment.

Moreover, his expression was odd because the secret art had actually formed a blurry cave. Was it really reliable?

In truth, Chu Feng could no longer sense those three people after they were devoured by the cave. Even he had no idea what their situation was.

The others attacked frantically after seeing this. Even Wei Changhe joined the fight with his remaining arm.

In the end, the cave trembled and tossed the three prisoners out. In the blink of an eye, everyone was astonished, and even Chu Feng himself was no exception.

The three had different appearances. One of them was completely dead; he was all skin and bones with no vitality whatsoever. When the second person fell out, his entire body was covered in hair. His hip was swung backward, his eyes were large, and his jaws were prominent, almost like a gorilla. The devolution was serious—he was no longer an evolver, but rather, showed signs of returning to his ancestry. The ape-man proceeded to let out constant incoherent shouts. The third was very normal without any special changes, but he made no movement at all. That was because his spirit had been dissolved entirely.

Chu Feng was dumbfounded. Even he himself had no idea what was going on, let alone the others. After being swallowed into the cave, the three actually revealed different fates.

The others glared at Chu Feng as though he were a demon. They were afraid of suffering this malicious attack.

“Kill!”

In the end, Chu Feng attacked once more. After an intense battle, he blasted Wei Changhe into pieces with his Lightning Fist and then used that odd secret art once more on the others.

At last, the entire area was quiet and everyone had died. The people taken into the cave later all met peculiar fates. For instance, one of them was covered in black handprints as though he had been touched by evil spirits. Even his expression was one of horror.

“Ghosts!” Chu Feng was suspicious and puzzled. Just like that, he left the dead star and went to meet up with Uncle Ming.

Meanwhile, in the Dameng Pure Land.

Qin Luoyin and the tiny daoist were engaged in a war. She had cut open her abdomen several times, but that child was ephemeral and suffused by a wisp of energy that allowed him to vanish immediately.

Qin Luoyin had almost broken down because her belly had started to swell up after several months. She could no longer hide the fact.

“This daoist is very resilient! Even if my own mother wants to destroy me, I will not give in so easily. I will come into this world alive!” The little daoist was filled with grief and indignation. “But, will she throttle me to death once I come out? Dad, oh father, where are you? Come and save me!”

During these months, he felt his spirit becoming more and more stable. He was gradually growing stronger and had become an evolver. He was now at the awakening realm!

One had to know that he was still developing in the womb.

In the end, Qin Luoyin braced herself to visit that important saint of the pure land.

The saintess was shaken after hearing this. She had already heard Qin Luoyin mention this before, but she was delayed by certain matters and returned to the pure land only today. “This is a divine embryo!”

She hesitated for a while and said, “Give birth to him, we must keep this child!”

At this time, the little daoist inside could already sense the outside world. He was delighted upon hearing this and said, “You’re truly my good grandma.”

The saintess then spoke again. “But, if you give birth just like that, it’ll affect your chastity and prestige. I think we should transfer it to someone else and have her deliver as a surrogate.”

The little daoist was just calling the saintess his grandmother. At this moment he changed his tone and said, “Goddammit, you old hag!”

The saintess paced about and said, “Oh right, the black divine dog in our pure land is at reproductive age. You can have it feed the child afterward.”

“F*ck!” The daoist spewed out a string of profanities. He was, after all, still in the womb and developing. He couldn’t hear very clearly. All he could make out was that he was going to be breastfed by a dog. “Old hag, mother, this daoist is going to fight it out with you!”
