The Sacred Ruins

Chapter 693: A Group of Cloudeater Realm Brothers

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

The Eastern Sea was immensely vast, with its jade waves spanning millions of kilometers.

After exiting Mount Eternal, Chu Feng jumped into the sea and sped away with the same speed with which he had dived in.

Before long, he was approaching the Dragon City in the Eastern Sea. This place was an underwater city built of beautiful corals, many kinds of giant seashells, and turtle shells. All of these materials caused the city to glisten, and it was extremely beautiful.

This was especially true of the glowing scarlet corals and the beautiful fist-sized pearls glowing with a prismatic radiance. They provided a dazzling source of light for this underwater city.

The underwater world was extremely beautiful with numerous mutant trees lining the area around the city. Their pretty leaves were a golden color and glowing with purplish brilliance, while some of them were silvery white like jade. It could be said that the city was a garish display of colors and filled with vitality.

There were rainbow colored fish roaming the city, white sharks swimming about, and flood dragons moving around... there were all kinds of creatures here.

It was almost a fairy-tale world, one so beautiful that it was ethereal.

This wasn’t the first time Chu Feng had come here, but the scenery was just as attractive and pleasing as the first time.

He changed his appearance and headed boldly toward the center of the underwater city. That was where the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace was located. The seafloor vines grew in large patches in this rare pure land.

Although the city was densely populated, the crystalline dragon palace was unusually quiet.

This was especially true of the palace halls. The marine race members on guard didn’t quite look like the natives. It was a type of twin-headed flying snake sporting bright colors and cold eye, fairly different from the ones before.

“Is the Dragoness here?” Chu Feng stepped forward.

The pupils of those twin-headed snakes constricted upon seeing him, and one of them hissed, “Come here.”

Most places in the sea used spiritual transmission to communicate.

But the area was special. It had formed an odd space of its own, isolating the Dragon Palace from the ocean.

Chu Feng sighed as he realized that the Dragon Palace had encountered trouble. These guards didn’t belong to the Eastern Sea Dragon Race. His expression turned cold as he walked forward.

He was somewhat worried about the Dragoness.

In truth, he already had a hunch after rushing here. After all, so many holy sons, races, and clans had arrived in the Eastern Sea, and it was quite likely that the power balance here would be shuffled. Now, that really seemed to be the case!

Chu Feng had a worried expression and was hoping that the Dragoness was safe.

“Boom!”

The next moment, domain runes lit up in front of the Dragon Palace and trapped Chu Feng inside. Apparently, the power in charge here had long since thought of various scenarios and had made preparations to capture people related to the Dragon Race.

“Accept your capture obediently!” The twin-headed snakes sneered. Their expressions were malicious and the fangs in their mouths were frightening.

“Fools who don’t know life from death!” Chu Feng stomped down with his feet and extinguished all the domain runes in the area. Next, he swung his palm over.

Bang!

One of the twin-headed snakes was shattered and turned into a pool of blood. Even his bones had dissolved.

Boom!

Afterward, he shot out a lightning-fast attack and wiped out another twin-headed snake.

Chu Feng dragged the only living serpent over and tapped a finger on his forehead, probing his memories. To evolvers at a much lower level, he could use this method to explore their memories.

Chu Feng quickly became serious. Some outer realm marine races had killed a part of the Eastern Sea Dragon Race and occupied this place as their temporary palace.

“You people deserve to die!” Chu Feng crushed the snake with a bang.

Presently, those occupying this place were the Seagod Snakes and the Sea Yaksha. These races favored the aquatic environment and would mostly live here when they were not laying siege to Mount Eternal.

“Get out here!”

Chu Feng was surging with killing intent as he charged in. At the same time, the alien marine race guards rushed out amidst loud shouts.

Thump!

With a single punch, a fist radiance lit up the entire Dragon Palace. The attack sent the group flying—some were torn, some blasted apart, and others burnt. This was the Yang-Realm divine technique, Lightning Fist.

It could be said that it was simply too powerful!

“Who dares court death here and disturb my sleep?!” An angry roar appeared from the depths of the Dragon Palace as a sea yaksha appeared. Its face was as ugly as a malevolent ghost and its skin was golden in color. The body was muscular and strong, with horns growing on his head.

“Your daddy’s here, get out here!”

At this moment, he had revealed his true appearance and his eyes were bloodshot. The Dragoness had a good relationship with him. If she had really died in these people’s hands, then it was useless even if he killed everyone.

“You’re... Chu Feng?!” The yaksha was shocked out of his wits. Seeing Chu Feng return made his heart beat wildly, and he was absolutely unwilling to fight.

The seagod snake was on the surface and only the sea yaksha was here. The latter felt that things weren’t going well right now.

“Come here and accept your death!” Chuy Feng shouted. He was absolutely furious as reached out and grabbed the yaksha.

Boom!

The sea yaksha wanted to break away. The many sea snakes and yakshas in the vicinity attacked at the same time, but they were all crushed into oblivion.

The Sea Yaksha Race’s holy son was caught by Chu Feng, who duly broke most of the bones in his body. The yaksha then collapsed on the floor and could no longer move.

The sea yaksha discovered that the disparity between them was too great. This Demon King Chu was even more powerful than he was rumored to be. He was practically the holy son among holy sons. Almost none within the same generation were his match.

“Where’s the Dragoness? I’ll flay you alive if you dare to lie!” Chu Feng’s expression was cold and his heart was filled with killing intent.

The trembling sea yaksha was cooperative. “Divine Son Chu Feng, please have mercy. We really wanted to capture the Dragoness, but she’s already run away. Additionally, some of the Dragon Race has also escaped in advance, so we didn’t manage to kill all of them.”

“What holy son? What divine son? You think I wish to share such titles with you guys? All of you are just appetizers and hard currencies to exchange for resources.”

Chu Feng stomped down and interrogated the details. In the end, he breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that the Dragoness was alive.

In order to avenge the Eastern Sea Dragon Race, Chu Feng gave him a quick death with his fist.

Afterward, he went on a rampage through the marine races occupying the place and swept the entire palace clean.

He then stood there and waited silently.

Many native races had witnessed the chaos in the underwater city and were all astonished.

Chu Feng sat down to meditate there. Instead of leaving, he circulated his breathing technique to calm himself down.

As expected, someone approached him and said in a whisper, “You’re... really Chu Feng?!”

“Yes!” Chu Feng nodded.

“Please, this way!” A marine race evolver led him away.

In the end, they left the city and stopped within a sea ravine. The loyal white turtled stopped here and asked Chu Feng for a token of his identity.

Chu Feng gave it some thought before bringing out the red flying knife he had used long ago and passed it to him.

“Okay, please wait a while!” The white sea turtle actually possessed a secret treasure. He tore through space and vanished in the blink of an eye.

“Chu Feng, it really is you!” In the end, the Dragoness rushed over. She was delighted and excited to see him. At the same time, she was also a bit sad that some of her race members had died.

“It’s me, I’ve returned.” Chu Feng was also happy to see his friend alive. He could finally do away with the suspense in his heart.

“Didn’t you enter the starry skies, when did you return? The outer realm people are laying siege to Mount Eternal to target you. You better be careful.” The Dragoness reminded.

Chu Feng nodded. “Rest assured, I’m here for those hundred evolutionary clans. They want to lay siege to Mount Eternal? I think they’ve made a big mistake in their calculations. We will hunt them down instead, come with me!”

He wanted to bring the Dragoness to the True Dragon Den. He wished to give her some evolutionary materials and raise her power to the cloudeater realm.

“Cloudeater?!” The Dragoness’ eyes widened after hearing this, and her expression was full of astonishment.

“Yes, for now, we can only get to the cloudeater realm. I can’t bring in better materials since the home planet has certain restrictions. It will only allow a cloudeater realm expert inside, the same goes for mutant fruits and weapons.”

Before long, they appeared in the sea eye of the Eastern Sea and entered the True Dragon Lair.

They had just entered when Chu Feng discovered that something wasn’t quite right. Numerous evolvers had come here before, including a domain master. There were traces of blood and corpses strewn across the place.

At the end of the ruins and near the forest was a dragon cave. The dragon’s lair built of Thunderstruck Wood was faintly discernible and gushing with draconic energy.

Chu Feng frowned. “I underestimated this place. I had thought that a peak domain master would be able to enter the dragon lair, but now, it seems I was too optimistic about it. This land is actually awakening too and even more terrifying than before. The outer realm people had attempted to attack this place but were defeated.

He investigated the place, entering the ruins and cracking the remnant domains. He discovered even more corpses and two domain masters.

In the end, Chu Feng sighed. He took away some Thunderstruck Wood and three-evolution Dragon Blood Grasses and gave them to the Dragoness. They should bring great benefits to her.

“Let’s go, we can’t enter the true dragon den in our current state.” Chu Feng stared at that ancient cave helplessly.

The draconic energy here was growing denser and the fragrance rushed into once senses. Vaguely, Chu Feng saw the dragon embryo tree and reverse scale flower. Covered in scales and emitting an intense fragrance these two plants were like a part of a true dragon.

This was a big fortune!

Chu Feng was somewhat regretful at first, but he revealed a shocked and delighted expression later on. From a different perspective, it meant one could come here after their strength had increased. Domain researchers possessed heaven-defying methods and were capable of borrowing the True Dragon Lair and the Phoenix Nest to gather the power of the mountains and rivers and absorb fortune. He could put himself to sleep in the lair and undergo a reincarnation, setting out on an extremely terrifying evolutionary journey.

Ordinary evolvers could ingest mutant fruits to increase their constitution and evolve. Meanwhile, domain researchers used this kind of method to devour the essence of the mountains and rivers—it was even more terrifying and astonishing.

Of course, the risks were also greater.

Additionally, how many intact True Dragon Lairs and Phoenix Nests could there be in this world or even throughout the cosmos?

“Mmm, that’s fine. I won’t use it now. I’ll come again when I’m a level higher and at that point, the effects will be even greater.”

Reincarnating at a high level was more optimal than using the fortunes of this land to evolve in a rush.

In the end, Chu Feng sent the Dragoness to Mount Eternal. There, he had her raise her constitution and began her evolution. Meanwhile, he left the place again, crossed the vast seas, and moved toward the continent.

Chu Feng arrived in the Shandong area, ran toward the He Ze region and made for the Daye Pond which had appeared only after the upheavals.

According to historical records, this was the place where the qilin had appeared and was captured by Xishou.

Chu Feng had come here before and really found the old qilin lair. However, it had long since become a residence for the outer realm people. He couldn’t deal with them back then, but now, it should be no problem.

Walking along the road into the depths of Daye Pond, Chu Feng was assaulted by myriad emotions. This was where he had killed old man Lu Tong’s superior, the master of the Hollow Jade Temple, Yuan!

The Old Qilin Lair was quite lively these days with numerous evolvers operating in groups, acting in accordance with the instructions of the four domain maters. They were attempting to crack this area.

It could be said that the outer realm people had mobilized in full force and had garrisoned themselves here in a bid to claim the Qilin Lair for themselves.

“As expected, this place isn’t as frightening as the True Dragon Lair. That’s because this place has been blasted open during ancient times and was no longer a complete lair. Perhaps this was related to the qilin being killed before it had come of age.

Chu Feng investigated the geography and found that this wasn’t right for a reincarnation.

“Here it is! My brothers are quite lucky this time. The fortune they need is within the intense qi left behind by the qilin.”

There was qilin energy here. The creature was one of the four most powerful auspicious beasts with divine blood flowing within it. Any place the qilin had stayed in would become a pure land filled with divine lights, auspicious radiance. They would all condense together with the qilin qi and was extremely suitable for cloudeater realm evolvers to ingest.

“There’s a qilin flower in the lair gathering intense qilin energy! I mustn’t miss it!” Chu Feng was delighted.

The so-called eating light and devour qi referred to the cloudeater realm.

Chu Feng stared at the group of people and found that their progress wasn’t that fast. At this rate, they would need at least half a month before they could break into this broken qilin lair.

“I’ll let you do the hard work first. I’ll come back and take over after my brothers are prepared!” Chu Feng said with a smile.

Then, he left!

Eight days later, Chu Feng returned with a group of people. Seated on the green boat, they crossed the Eastern Sea unknown to anyone.

“Eh? They’re working day and night. It looks like they’ll finish in two more days.” Chu Feng was astonished, then his smile grew even more resplendent.

“I can hardly wait with all this excitement.” The old donkey was so excited that he almost started kicking about.

“I can’t wait, either, I really want to enter the cloudeater realm and devour the qilin’s tyrannical energy in one go!” The Manchurian Tiger howled.

The Dragoness, the black yak, Ouyang Feng, Yellow Ox, Wu Qifeng, and the old llama couldn’t stay calm, either. Everyone felt their blood boiling and wanted nothing more than to charge in.

Chu Feng spoke, “Fine, we’ll act ahead of time to avoid complications. If we wait for them to open the lair, the people they had made appointments with might appear. Let’s act two days in advance!”

What followed was a one-sided battle!

The battle was quite fierce in the beginning. After all, there was a number of domain masters overseeing this place. Yet, Chu Feng dealt with them later on. He knew both domains and combat, so he suppressed everyone along the way.

One day later, Chu Feng opened up the damaged Qilin Lair personally.

“Roar...”

The group of great demons howled, filling the area with delighted cries. Soon, dazzling lights flickered and cloudy mists surged as they began breaking through, accumulating the first strand of qi and cloud of the cloudeater realm!

Hence, a group of cloudeater realm evolvers was born!
