The Sacred Ruins

Chapter 516: May We Reunite

Panda Novel

Eastern Sea. A certain sea region was suffused with mist and a rather heavy yin energy had enveloped the entire body of water.

The hazy mist grew increasingly dense as Chu Feng went deeper and deeper. Finally, an island came into view and he went ashore successfully.

This was the island on which Mount Eternal was located. Normal people could never find it nor approach it. Chu Feng was only able to make his way here because of the stone he had taken from Mount Eternal. He was able to use it to enter and leave.

The island was too quiet and it could even be said that it was deathly still.

The road was full of stones. There were also plants but all of them were dried or rotten, bearing an intense aura of decay.

He didn’t linger here and made a beeline for the center of the island. There were seven great mountains there—each of them was boundlessly huge and towered into the skies—this was Mount Eternal.

Chu Feng arrived before the mountain gates and once again saw the skeletons with a wisp of spirit and intelligence on them. They were either shriveled or rotten but there was a flame in the depths of their eyes; this was their almost extinguished spirit.

This place was like an island of death, congested with the corpses of countless creatures. There were humans, hundred meter long beasts, ten meter long ants, and an emaciated nine-tailed fox.

There were entities of all races and all of them bore the aura of decay. It seemed as though one had arrived at the entrance to hell where large numbers of deathly creatures were emerging.

Chu Feng rushed to the mountain passage and saw some words carved upon the brown rock. Black Yak and Manchurian Tiger had indeed come out before. They had left a long message for him written in densely packed words.

“Chu Feng, we’re evolving at a god-like speed. Our constitution has advanced by a significant margin and our vitality is undergoing a transition. The progress even scared ourselves. Ah, how worrisome.”

Doubtlessly, this was the black yak’s message. One could already imagine his self-satisfaction even without seeing him.

Old Blackie also added ostentatiously and told Chu Feng that there’s a divine medicine in the depths of Mount Eternal. Whoever at it would undergo a complete transformation and his strength would increase explosively.

“Unfortunately, we can’t bring it out no matter how good the divine medicine is. It seems you’re not destined to enjoy it. The taste is really good. It’s a type of purple berry emitting dazzling radiance like the sun. It dissolved instantly after entering the mouth and its fragrance spread over dozens of kilometers. Purple beams shot out from every pore as though one would grow wings and ascend. It felt as though my legs had left the ground.”

Old Black described everything in detail. Chu Feng could feel his good mood and cocky demeanor.

After that, the old donkey added, “Little Chu, we’re all advancing by leaps and bounds. You have to try hard not to fall behind. Or else, you’ll be shocked after we meet again.”

Chu Feng was speechless. This spineless old donkey had never dared address him as Little Chu. He was a wretched coward who feared death above all else.

But now, this donkey was acting all smug. Chu Feng sensed that they had encountered great fortunes and their strength had increased explosively. Otherwise, this donkey wouldn’t be so confident.

Chu Feng was very happy. Earlier on, he was worried about how the group was doing, but now it seemed they were holding out better than he had expected. There was a divine medicine on this Mount Eternal. It’s indeed astonishing.

“As expected of a place capable of nurturing demonic sages!”

He sighed in admiration. This place was too abnormal—losers would turn into the living dead, but the victors were destined to rise meteorically and become saints in the future.

Other ruins and cave residences were only inheritances and very few of them had limitations. But this place had all kinds of harsh requirements because it was specifically for nurturing demonic sages.

In the end, those who couldn’t become saints would be considered failures!

From this, it was evident just how terrifying Mount Eternal was. No wonder even Yaoyao praised that place and said that Yellow Ox and the others had encountered great fortune. There was absolutely no need for Chu Feng to send them peaches of immortality or cinnabar fruits—they had everything they needed inside! As long as one’s talent and willpower were sufficiently astonishing and managed to survive through all the steps, they would obtain all kinds of benefits and nurturing.

“Brother, Brother Hu here will protect you in the future if you can’t catch up to our evolution speed. Just a while ago, I swallowed the essence blood relic of a golden arhat level black tiger. It shaved my fur, cleansed my marrow and allowed me to undergo a series of transformations. Now, my vitality is flourishing like the ocean!” This was the Manchurian Tiger’s message.

These people were quite smug. One could see the joy and confidence in their message.

In the end, Chu Feng saw their serious words below after their cocky messages. The group warned Chu Feng to take care. They told him to endure and not risk his life if he were bullied or hunted down by enemies he couldn’t beat. They promised to get revenge for him after coming out!

Chu Feng smiled as a comfortable feeling pervaded his heart. It seemed these people still hadn’t floated into the heavens.

Afterwards, they also complained about the true situation inside and their concerns were written all over the giant rock. They told him that Yellow Ox and Ouyang Feng had vanished for quite some time and hadn’t come out all along.

Chu Feng had long since known that only Yellow Ox and Ouyang Feng would be able to enter the depths of the Mount Eternal refinement grounds—only they could step upon the path of death. They would become peerless demonic masters upon success and turn into zombies if they failed.

Black yak, Manchurian Tiger, the Donkey King, and the Golden Condor knew their own status. They waited outside the absolute zone and didn’t follow them inside.

“Little Yellow finally came out. He was drenched in blood and was so full of injuries that I felt pained at heart. But he’s become much stronger.”

The great black yak revealed the true situation. His message contained both worry and gratification.

“Brother, how are you doing outside? We have no way to know. Don’t show off too much and take care of yourself. We’ll help you vent your anger after we come out. We’re doing very well here. Little Yellow brings back a log of spoils after each return and we are allowed to bask in his glory. And that Ouyang Feng is quite a nice fellow after a period of contact. He brings back a lot of divine medicines and wondrous arts for us and is quite generous with them. It’s just that his mouth is too vile. He said he’s on the verge of vomiting from eating too many treasured medicines. He said he wants to puke after watching us eat the medicines.”

After seeing this, Chu Feng felt that Ouyang Feng had found too many fortunes. Perhaps his strength had long since increased explosively, but he’s still as ostentatious as before.

He felt that this fellow’s habit of shooting sidelong glances will probably have worsened.

He thought about how the toad, after escaping this place, would glance askance at all the divine sons and saintesses with spittle flying all over the place. That scene would probably be quite popular. He was sure to invite a group beating.

Chu Feng recalled the time he met the toad for the first time. It had rained down spittle like an overturned basin and almost drenched him from head to toe.

But Ouyang Feng was indeed a powerful divine beast. He had once fought arduously against Chu Feng and was suppressed only in the end. If he had truly risen to power in this place, he would surely become quite terrifying.

As for Yellow Ox, he didn’t need to worry. He was intelligent and possessed excellent talents—he knew everything Chu Feng did and he had practiced everything to perfection!

The young Yellow Ox had already shown incomparably powerful fighting power back then.

Afterwards, Chu Feng saw yet another message.

“We learned the peerless art of the demon race, but unfortunately, we swore not to pass it to anyone outside of their race. Chu Brat, we can’t give it to you for the moment. We’ll see later.”

“We encountered an astonishing fortune and Yellow Ox has already changed breathing techniques. We’ve had great fortunes in the depths of this place and were able to cultivate the breathing technique left behind by the demonic ancestors. He told me to tell you that the one he taught you seems to be defective and missing the last chapters.”

There were a lot of words on the stone wall and were densely packed. The earlier messages were brought out by the black yak, but later, Yellow Ox himself came out and informed him in detail. He was worried Chu Feng would encounter trouble during evolution.

Apparently, it wasn’t easy for Yellow Ox and Ouyang Feng to come out, so their messages were short. They had to remain fighting in the absolute region for most of the time.

“Chu Feng, your breathing technique should be Earth’s Ultimate Breathing Technique. But, there are a lot of defects after it spread out into the starry skies. You have to search thoroughly and try filling the missing parts. Otherwise, it’ll be hard to support your later evolutionary path. Moreover, the Thunderous Breathing Technique is also defective. We’ve obtained a peerless technique right now, but due to how important it is, I don’t dare leave it on the stone wall. It would be disastrous if leaked. I’ll find a way to pass it to you after we meet later on. I think the demonic ancestor’s oath isn’t that inflexible.”

Yellow Ox’s words made Chu Feng feel warm all over. He carved out words in earnest and began to reply. He told Yellow Ox not to worry about him and that he had already found the latter volume of Robbery Induction.

At the same time, he was delighted for Yellow Ox. The calf and Ouyang Feng were destined to become terrifying experts. They would surely be able to sweep through an entire region once they emerged!

The black yak, Manchurian Tiger, and the old donkey, etc. also saw explosive increases and strength. Yellow Ox and Ouyang Feng brought not only heaven-defying divine medicines but also various types of secret arts.

“Chu Feng, it’s difficult to find divine medicines outside. So, don’t rush into the carefree realm. It’s best to find divine medicines to aid the process and sever all the shackles in the body. This is the demonic ancestor’s message mentioned several times during the early stages of demonic sage nurturing.”

Yellow Ox informed Chu Feng in all due seriousness.

At this point, Chu Feng exhaled a long breath. It seemed Mount Eternal was, just as Yaoyao had said, not lacking in anything. There were abundant fortunes allowing one to grow all the way and become a peerless demonic descendant.

Chu Feng left a message, telling him to rest assured. He told Yellow Ox that he had already overturned the Sacrificial Altar on Mount Tai and have no lack of divine medicines. There were even Peaches of Immortality and Cinnabar Fruits left over.

At the same time, he also passed on Yaoyao’s understanding of evolution to them.

“Chu Feng, this grandpa is going to make you my mount when we meet again. I’ll ride you to experience the world, collect fairies and display my peerless style!”

Such an undisguised provocation was naturally Ouyang Feng’s work. One could easily imagine the toad’s sidelong glance. Truly… asking for a beating.

Afterwards, Chu Feng saw their final message and the matter made him delighted.

There’s an ancient energy pagoda in Mount Eternal which contained intact will and was capable of sensing the changes in the outside world. It told Yellow Ox, Ouyang Feng, and the others that the earth was undergoing drastic changes recently, that they should perhaps be let out into the real world to battle and experience the results of their evolution.

“The energy pagoda told us that this so-called refinement ground isn’t just limited to Mount Eternal. Earth’s space, in its entirety, will be such a place when the time is ripe! Long ago, Mount Eternal chose earth because it felt that there will be great winds and waves here sooner or later with all kinds of heavenly talents vying for hegemony. A brilliant era was the most optimal tempering grounds.”

Chu Feng was naturally excited. This indicated that his friends would come out at any moment and they would be reunited once again.

Chu Feng decisively left a message, telling them of the most recent developments—for instance, how he had kidnapped saint children and sold saintesses, etc.

“Come out quickly. Now I have fairies and saintesses paving the way whenever I travel and to accompany me at night. Just come out as soon as possible!”

At the same time, he informed them that he was going to fight a saint on the Origin Beast Platform. Moreover, he had already made enemies like the young god of Deity Planet and the divine son of the Xilin Clan.

A great tempestuous era was nigh. Chu Feng told them about those enemies and opponents, lest they know nothing when they emerged.

Afterwards, Chu Feng brought out a crystal holding a drop of golden liquid within. That was the Deity Elixir.

He crushed the crystal and swallowed the fluid within.

That was because Yellow Ox, Ouyang Feng, and the others had advanced by leaps and bounds. They would soon emerge and the brothers, reunited, would conquer those enemies. He naturally had to be stronger.

In a split second, Chu Feng’s entire body erupted with golden light which soon enveloped him from the outside. In a flash, he was glowing like a brilliant sun and was incomparably dazzling.

At the same time, his hair turned golden, grew to his waist and danced behind his body. His eyes had also turned golden.

Chu Feng was golden yellow from head to toe and extremely eye-catching.

The Deity Elixir had a miraculous effect of readjusting his body, healing hidden injuries, and erasing all types of hidden damage. It allowed his body to become flawless, lustrous, and more powerful.

Chu Feng felt that his entire person had become unfathomably agile. All the untoward effects left behind by severing dozens of shackles on Mount Tai had disappeared. Back then, his vitality had almost dried up and he nearly died on Mount Tai. Even though he had eaten the Starcore Turtle eggs after returning to Mount Longhu, there were still numerous small problems that required gradual recuperation.

But now everything was fine. His entire body was golden yellow, his vitality was dense to the extreme and his spirit was also incomparably pure!

Chu Feng revealed a smile. He knew he could evolve once again without worrying about an unstable foundation. The Deity Elixir had solved all of his problems!
