The Sacred Ruins

The six-meter-ear macaque rushed forward and grabbed him. He said, “Let’s Go and drink. If you want a great sage’s great grandson-in-law, I will definitely help you.”

The old Daoist was too powerful. The void distorted when his body moved slightly and then split apart, forming a black heavenly domain that clashed with the entire world.

The earth trembled and the surrounding divine kings felt as if the end of the world had arrived. They trembled and almost knelt on the ground.

There was no need to mention the others. Their minds were blank and their bodies were weak. They couldn’t stand. It was only after the heavenly venerate had disappeared that many saints and divine beings realized they had collapsed to the ground. Their image was very bad.

“Everyone, please excuse me. I’m going into seclusion!”

Chu Feng disappeared in a flash. In fact, he wanted to run away and was prepared to leave quietly.

However, a shadow flashed in the dark and revealed an old man with a white beard and hair. He was none other than the heavenly venerate Yu Shang. His body was in decline and he had reached his old age. He was lonely and had no one to rely on. Until now, he didn’t have a successor.

Back then, the stone embryo with nine orifices was born in the East Victory Divine Land. He had been schemed against by others. Although Yu Prefecture was adjacent to that place, in the end, he didn’t fight over it with others. That heavenly embryo had been snatched away by others.

Later on, the stone embryo changed masters several times before finally falling under the wing of the Yongzhou Overlord and becoming his grand-disciple.

Now that Yu Shang saw Chu Feng, he felt something in his heart. He felt that this young man had an affinity for him and wanted to take him in as a disciple. He really didn’t have many years left to live.

“Little friend, this way please. The cave dwelling in your tent is here. You can go into seclusion in peace.”

As a heavenly venerate, Yu Shang personally greeted Chu Feng and arranged for him to enter a cave dwelling in his tent. The mountain peak was shrouded in white mist and auspicious multicolored light was gushing out from the peak. The spiritual spring was gurgling and overflowing. The spiritual essence of heaven and earth was extremely dense and suitable for seclusion.

Chu Feng was truly helpless because of his enthusiasm. He could only enter this place.

“These three talisman papers were personally refined by me. I can ensure your safety,”Yu Shang said as he personally handed Chu Feng the three old and yellowing talisman papers.

There were bright red bloodstains on them, outlining complicated patterns and containing terrifying energy. However, they were all restrained and didn’t leak out.

Only people with exceptionally powerful soul lights like Chu Feng could sense that these three talisman papers were too terrifying and could make one’s heart tremble. They could probably exterminate a divine king!

“Senior, these are...”

“These are the three talisman papers made before my blood rotted. They can protect you.”Yu Shang was truly old. His voice was low and his eyes were somewhat turbid.

This was his normal state. Only during battle would he be able to barely concentrate the last bit of essence energy in his rotted blood and allow himself to recover.

Chu Feng’s heart was greatly moved. This was a top-grade talisman paper made from heavenly venerate blood. Not to mention the value of the talisman itself, this favor alone was boundless.

One could imagine that Yu Shang was no longer able to refine this kind of talisman in his current state.

“Senior, you also need these!”Chu Feng declined. This gift was too precious.

Yu Shang shook his head and said, “What use do I have for it? An old and weak body, a declining body, and a withering life. No one will find trouble with me. Even if they don’t kill me, I won’t have many years left to live.”

Afterwards, he revealed a somewhat sorrowful expression and said, “When I see you, I think of a child from back then. He was only sixteen years old but had already become a great sage. He was a heaven-bestowed talent, but in the end, he was killed by someone.”

He was very sad. That was the youngest child’s only bloodline in the world and also his last descendant. In the end, he was feared by his enemy and was killed by someone else.

That young man was a great sage!

One had to know that such an achievement was rare throughout history. It was rare to see one in ten thousand years!

Today, Yu Shang was especially emotional. After seeing Cao de’s performance today, his heart was filled with sorrow.

“Senior, don’t you have any other descendants?”Chu Feng asked.

“No, they’re all dead.”The old man was very sad.

He was a heavenly venerate. In the real world where even great powers were dying and unable to come into being, he roamed the world and rarely had an opponent.

But in the end, his family and disciples had all died and were killed by others. He was powerless to take revenge and had no way to change that tragic outcome.

“Ah?”Chu Feng was very surprised. As a heavenly venerate, he was so miserable.

Yu Shang had clearly entered his old age and wouldn’t live long. He didn’t even have any family or descendants by his side. He didn’t even have a disciple. It was truly sad and pitiful.

“My eldest son was once the fifth God in the world, but... he died in a secret realm. Was it an accident? I Can’t deduce it. His... Skeleton was nowhere to be found.”

Yu Shang sat down shakily. His eyes were filled with unwillingness and endless sadness.

At this time, he didn’t look like a heavenly venerate. Instead, he looked like an old man in his dying years. He had the desire to talk.

“My daughter, the third god King, is publicly recognized as a heaven-sent god King. However, when she was looking for the strongest god King level pollen, she accidentally fell into the forbidden land and never appeared again. I went to the scene and found some traces. Someone had once blocked her path of return.”

Speaking up to this point, Yu Shang increasingly did not look like a heavenly venerate. Instead, he was just a lonely old man. Tears appeared in his murky old eyes.

He knew clearly that it was not an accident. Someone had caused his daughter’s death.

Every time he thought of his daughter’s innocent and charming appearance when she was young and the way she wound around him, his heart would be broken. His daughter’s heaven-warping and heroic appearance when she grew up was not inferior to others. This made him feel gratified. However, now, his heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife.

“I still have a younger son. Although he is not ranked, he is probably one of the strongest godly monarchs. He died for no reason.”

Someone had bewitched his younger son to cultivate the seven deaths body, but in the end, it was a damaged copy. In the end, his body and soul were destroyed.

Before this youngest son met with an accident, he left behind his only son. He was carefully nurtured by the old man, and his descendants relied on each other. In the end, after that child became a great sage, another accident happened. His lineage was completely without descendants.

As for his disciples, he had also taken in a few of them. In the end, they all died one after another.

At this time, Yu Shang’s eyes were dim and lustrous. His mood was downcast and he looked somewhat pitiful.

These were all things that happened tens of thousands of years ago. However, the memories in his heart were still so clear and profound as if they had happened yesterday.

Chu Feng felt emotional and sad for him.

At the same time that he sympathized with this old man, he was also suspicious. It was obvious that someone was targeting this bloodline and was very vicious!

At the same time, he was also very surprised. This was because Yu Shang’s descendants all had extraordinary bloodlines and were ranked so high among evolvers of the same level.

Could it be that this race had quite a background?

“After so many things happened, I didn’t dare take in a disciple. However, after seeing you being targeted today, many old fellows with evil intentions appeared and wanted to stifle the geniuses. I couldn’t help it anymore!”

...

Yu Shang’s gaze was clear, finally, he sighed, “But after thinking about it, I could only give up on that thought. I feel that even after tens or millions of years, some people still won’t give up. If I were to take you in as a disciple, disaster would still befall my disciple.”

Yu Shang felt that he didn’t have many years left to live. Everything would end with his death.

However, he told Chu Feng that if he needed anything, he could look for him. Moreover, he would do his best to protect him in the company camp so that nothing unexpected would happen to him.

“Thank you, Senior!”Chu Feng saluted.

At the same time, his heart wasn’t at peace. The youngest son of the old man had died during the seven deaths practice and obtained a damaged copy. Could it be the work of the mad martial artist’s lineage?

Only the strongest of the mad martial artists could practice such a supreme secret manual.

He shook his head again. Even if the old man didn’t mention the past, it would be difficult for him to guess who the culprit was. At the moment, it seemed the old man wasn’t willing to say anything more.

With a flash of light, Yu Shang disappeared.

In a deserted place, Yu Shang sighed inwardly. Who Would he hand that thing to in the future? Cao De’s bones and tendons were indeed heaven-defying, but would it harm him? This was a warning to him!

Chu Feng calmed his heart and began his seclusion after a moment. He was very relaxed. With such a heavenly venerate protector, he was completely immersed in his own comprehension.

This time, his gains were too great. He had obtained too many opportunities from the DAO fusing grand meeting.

...

He had broken through from the golden body to the quasi-sage realm. Not long ago, he had transcended the tribulation and subsequently advanced to the saint level. Furthermore, he was a great sage!

He needed to go into seclusion, comprehend, and consolidate his DAO Foundation. He needed to consolidate his rapidly advancing cultivation so that the dao fruit would become heavier and more flawless.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, more than fifty days had passed. Chu Feng opened his eyes and couldn’t help but sigh. This cultivation speed was too fast, and even he himself was a bit uncertain.

He had already reached the late stage of the Saint Realm!

He knew that he was approaching the checkpoint. Since ancient times, it was almost impossible to advance without using pollen. There was no way forward.

What he needed to do now was to polish the great sage Dao fruit and carry out the hellish extreme squeezing and grinding to become the strongest body. After that, he would frantically use pollen to evolve!

Chu Feng observed that the laws within the small Netherworld Dao fruit were interwoven. It was much stronger than before. Only this kind of divine king core could be considered an expert. It was many times stronger than the previous Divine King Dao Fruit!

The dao fusing grass produced in the small secret realm had changed so much.

And there were still hundreds of small secret realms in this battlefield. How could Chu Feng not be tempted?

Originally, he had wanted to run away, but now he was wavering. Especially with heavenly venerate Yu Shang protecting the dao, he really wanted to stay for a period of time to explore the secret realm.

Chu Feng came out of seclusion. He felt that he could use the three seeds very soon. It wouldn’t be too long before he realized a super evolution and shocked the Yang world!

“Monkey, where are you? Come out and have a drink. Xiao Yao, I’m your uncle-in-law. Why aren’t you coming out?”

Chu Feng entered the Golden Body Allied camp and looked for a few sworn brothers.

The group of golden body evolvers looked at him as if they were looking at a deity. Their eyes were burning with passion as they approached him.

“Great Sage CAO, have you come out of seclusion? I’ll help you call for the Heavens!”

“Great Sage Cao, you have walked out of our camp. You should come back often!”

..

The area was filled with noise. It was completely surrounded.

Recently, everyone from the godly monarch company to the Golden Body Company had spread the name of Cao de. It could be said that his name had shaken the entire battlefield.

Even the people from the southern and western regions had heard of him. They were all asking around.

After all, the appearance of a great sage was really too rare!
