The Sacred Ruins

Chapter 680: Cloudeater Evolution

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

In the battlefield filled with the pungent scent of blood, Chu Feng was standing alone while the geniuses of Xilin clan laid in disarray across the place. They were all dissolving and about to disappear.

“The Reincarnation Blade... so vicious, I don’t want to die!”

One of the geniuses wanted to play possum but was now sending out spiritual waves because he felt the fear, even his mind was being eroded and his body and soul were being exterminated entirely.

Chu Feng stood at the same place with a cold and merciless look. He didn’t even need to deal the finishing blows. At this moment, the blood on the Reincarnation Bade had already started to disappear even before dripping to the ground.

Once hit by the sword, the flesh would start to dissolve and in the end, both body and soul would be destroyed.

“Seems like every race had eventually known the origin of this sword.” Chu Feng said to himself. Just by hearing the Xilin clan said the name of the Reincarnation Bade already revealed a lot of information.

Chu Feng had seen this coming because the guardian of the true one, Yuchi Kong, had never left the mother star, but he recognized the Reincarnation Bade and knew its origins.

And as for the powerful races in the universe such as the Deity Race and the Netherworld Race who had ruled the universe for tens millions of years, they had experienced the great extermination of the origin beasts, the black blood tide, the darkening heavens, etc. They had witnessed all kinds of huge disasters in history and the changes of time. Naturally, they would understand a lot of insider details.

In these powerful great races, there was no lack of experienced elders. Eventually, someone had recognized the origin of this sword and spread it to the world.

All in all, someone posted a picture of the dark-red sword in Chu Feng’s hand to the universe. With how vast the latter was, there definitely would be someone who recognized it.

Chu Feng left, leaving behind some human-shaped ashes in place. The dozens of top-notch cloudeater realm geniuses from the Xilin clan would remain there forever.

“I’ll hand over you all to Uncle Ming when I leave.” Chu Feng sighed as he glanced at the old, weak, sick and disabled in the Pristine Jade Bottle.

However, he knew that Uncle Ming would be quite happy because he most likely wouldn’t believe that there were still descendants of Yao Yao’s race living on this dead planet. Even though their situation was quite terrible, it was still good news.

Chu Feng started to run quickly. His body was like the wind and also akin to a flash of lightning—he was extremely fast as he searched for his own fortune.

In this empty place where vegetation was sparse, one could see the occasional sick tree. They had only a few leaves on them, and yet they were filled with a strange aura.

“This is it, the texture of the soil and the energy filling in the air is so similar to the purgatory space.” Chu Feng confirmed that this dimension was formed by the substance that had sprayed out from the purgatory.

Just like that, he started to search because he had longed for that thread of light to appear again. At this moment, he took out the stone box because it was possible that the thread of light might come from the land of reincarnation. Perhaps it would have some sort of attracting effect.

A swamp appeared, and Chu Feng wasn’t quite expecting this. Vitality and water were things lacking the most on this dead planet—even dimensional spaces were no exception.

Buzz!

The void shook and the energy cracked. The swamp suddenly exploded and the ferocious mouth of a beast—one able to swallowing a mammoth—rushed towards Chu Feng.

It was a catfish with the pitch-black outer skin and a body that looked like a tremendous dragon. It soared from the swamp accompanied by boundless death energy, black mist, and energy.

Its entire body was surrounded by death energy. This was a mutant creature that had actually adapted to this dead planet and was living well here.

In the bloody huge mouth, those teeth were taller than half a person. They were sharp, white, and piercingly cold. The tremendous mouth closed instantly after Chu Feng had evaded it, and the teeth knocked against each other, producing a terrifying noise.

Bang!

Chu Feng shot up and struck out with a Lightning Fist. Golden light balls broke out and amidst deafening rolls of thunder—he punched a huge hole through one side of this catfish, causing blood to splash all over the place.

“The transformation realm!” Chu Feng was shocked that this catfish was nearly the golden body level. If it were a creature of the cloudeater realm, it should have been blown off after one punch by him.

Moreover, the energy of this catfish creature was quite unusual, it filled the air with a dense aura of death quite similar to the situation of this planet.

Tsch!

At that moment, Chu Feng took out an ancient pole weapon with a banner hanging on it. It fluttered as he spread it out in the wind, filling the air with a terrifying aura.

The Spirit Blood Banner!

This was a secret treasure he had snatched from an old golden-body-level woman of the Spirit Race when he was on earth. It was mysterious, frightening and boasted incomparable might—it wasn’t even afraid of a slash from the Reincarnation Bade.

The air was filled with blood energy. The pole moved out as Chu Feng hurled it forward like a javelin.

Although the catfish creature had impressive power, it was still a little muddle-headed and confused. Chu Feng guessed that it had something to do with the environment of this planet.

Pfft!

The Spirit Blood Banner pinned itself onto the gigantic dragon-like catfish and it immediately started to gobble up its vitality. The creature struggled violently and produced a mournful spiritual howl.

However, it was simply useless since it couldn’t get rid of the weapon. In the end, it became nothing but a fish skin because its essence had been entirely devoured.

“These methods are all quite fitting of a demon king.” Chu Feng mumbled. Be it the Spirit Blood Banner or the Reincarnation Bade, they were all quite ruthless.

But fortunately, he had the lightning fist. The move was fairly divine because every time he shook his fist, the brilliance was comparable to the sun moving through the sky. The scene was resplendent and dazzling.

In the swamp, he continued to kill six catfish creatures. Chu Feng burned the corpses to destroy the evidence, even the fish skins because the Spirit Blood Banner couldn’t be allowed to see the light.

Besides, he even wanted to use it afterward and let the Spirit Race take the blame.

“Is there really such a light?” someone was discussing up front.

“There must be. The old ancestor Wei Heng had already sent out word, it can’t be false. It was really unexpected that the saints guarding the black jail didn’t report it to their superiors and let their descendants look for opportunities here instead. Fortunately, people from our branch also found out.”

“When will Wei Changhe arrive? Old ancestor Wei Heng has great expectations for him. If he can meld with the light, he’ll certainly become a saint or even a level higher!”

Chu Feng observed secretly and found out that these people were the descendants of Wei Heng, not the same lineage as those whom he had just killed.

“Eh, it’s here! That light has appeared again. I must catch it this time. Quick, open the black stone box bestowed by the old ancestor Wei Heng!” one of them shouted.

The genius of the Wei Heng lineage was very excited because this was their third time seeing that thread of light. They missed the first two times and now they were trying once again.

Chu Feng felt surprised because he felt the light was coming at him, more precisely, it was coming at the gorgeous flame inside the stone box on him because they all originated from the purgatory.

There was only a small flame remaining inside the stone box because he had used up too much during the battle at Kunlun.

But it was enough to attract that thread of light. The glow swooped directly towards him and flew around him. It was so splendid that it brightened up his entire body.

Chu Feng was deeply astonished because he didn’t think that it would actually be so easy to attract this thread of light. He thought he might need to wait for a long time and spend all of his efforts to hunt it.

This thread of light contained threads of primal chaos qi. It was splendid with thriving vitality and caused the pores on his body to expand—the sensation was especially comfortable.

This wasn’t inferior to consuming a great medicine. Just the aura relaxed his entire body and spirit—he wished nothing more than to swallow the light in one bite.

“Oh, over there!”

“Eh, why is there someone else? He just attracted that thread of light!”

The descendants of Wei Heng were shocked because as they found out that the thread of light had entered a hilly area. They rushed over right afterward and saw Chu Feng surrounded by the thread of light.

They immediately went in for the kill. No matter who it was, even for the descendants of the saints guarding the black jail, they would kill for the treasure.

“Young man, go away!” one of them shouted. He wanted to knock Chu Feng away and take his place.

“Leave immediately and I’ll spare your life!”

It wasn’t that these people were kindhearted. They were just worried that Chu Feng might swallow the light all by himself because it was very weird that this light was swiveling around him.

“You are the ones who need to leave!” Chu Feng sneered. He turned around, set aside the light for a while and rushed towards them with his sword.

A battle broke out. Chu Feng wouldn’t be careless about something related to his dao fruit. He went all out and fought with his life on the line.

When the Resonance Technique and Spiral Technique were used with the long sword, a frightening scene was brought out as soon as the battle began. The sword shook and rumbled as it thrust forward, smashing a person into pieces. This wasn’t the slash but the resonance that had smashed them into a bloody mist—it was incredibly frightening.

“Who are you?!”

“Someone who’s going to kill you!” Chu Feng didn’t want to waste time talking. He only wanted to quickly settle them so that he could swallow the light and advance his level here without a hitch.

Pfft!

At last, the few men were killed by Chu Feng and the hills became quiet for the time being.

Chu Feng put away his sword and stood there. When he tried to attract that light, however, he suddenly felt frightened and broke out in goosebumps. As the light was approaching him, his body nearly collapsed and his mind almost exploded.

Right afterward, he opened up his Fiery Eyes to look clearer and saw a wisp of blood in the light. It was very faint but there were order symbols on it. It possessed the power of rule and was exceptionally frightful!

Chu Feng was on pins and needles because the conjecture of the Xilin clan was true, there was blood in this light and it might be related to Yao Yao’s father!

He immediately operated the Robbery Induction Breathing Technique to calm himself down.

Crash!

It was only a little wisp of blood but it produced a sound akin to a rocking chain. That was the divine chain of order.

It then left the light and started to swivel around Chu Feng. This caused his blood to flow so wildly throughout his entire body that he nearly exploded. It hadn’t even touched Chu Feng and yet he couldn’t stand it.

Finally, a scene appeared from the wisp of blood, a man of heroic bearing. There were some similarities between him and Yao Yao, such as the eyes—they were filled with an incredibly confident luster.

Chu Feng could only operate the Robbery Induction Breathing Technique to endure this terrifying pressure and had no idea what would happen in the end.

At last, the Robbery Induction Breathing Technique resonated with the wisp of blood. It made Chu Feng’s body shake continuously and erupt with brilliant light!

In a whoosh, the wisp of blood containing the chain of order disappeared all of a sudden!

Without a doubt, those without the Robbery Induction Breathing Technique would gain nothing here and might face a mortal calamity.

“What a pity, the youngest heaven illuminator in history was finally killed by the ancient races like the Deity Race and the Netherworld Race,” Chu Feng sighed.

The so-called reborn by a drop of blood certainly had its conditions. The group of overlords of the universe during that time must have killed the vitality of Yao Yao’s father and obliterated every single thread of his spirit willpower.

Therefore, even though his flesh remained, without the soul, Yao Yao’s father was still unable to come back. He was completely dead.

Whoosh!

After the wisp of blood disappeared, a mysterious light flowed into the stone box in Chu Feng’s hand. It seemed to be rolling in the brightly colored reincarnation flame before soaring up again. This was a fairly unusual energy material.

Chu Feng hesitated a little and he opened his mouth to inhale the light. At the same time, he also prodded through the proverbial window paper without any hesitation and entered the cloudeater realm.

Bang!

Chu Feng’s body was shaking severely and releasing divine light, as resplendent as the sun. He had entered the cloudeater realm and was causing prismatic lights to shine across the sky.

Whoooo...

The Robbery Induction Breathing Technique circulated as he respired light. It was the first light he had absorbed in the cloudeater realm, which duly merged into his flesh and blood.

Right now, Chu Feng felt that the condition of his body was incredibly good because his foundations were firm and profound. The bones and organs inside his body were producing cracking sounds because, after the evolution, his constitution was still increasing rapidly.

“I heard that after devouring the mysterious light, not only will my strength at the cloudeater realm increase, but some remarkable abilities will also develop. What did I get?”

Chu Feng was incredibly curious about this mysterious light. The evolution inside his body was still proceeding and his constitution was continuing to increase.

Suddenly, his body shook. He seemed to be arriving at the end of the reincarnation road and was entering an ancient cave!

Chu Feng was in fear. He was always so curious about the cave but he didn’t go inside. Did this light... really come from there? What would he see next?

A “fourteen years old” super genius young man was evolving and his power was advancing by leaps and bounds. Clearly, it would lead to a string of unforeseen events.
