The Sacred Ruins
chapter-602

The sound of conversation was unexpectedly heard, and it sounded very strange on this quiet end of the reincarnation road. Even though there were hundreds of millions of spirits, they were all silent as they leapt into the abyss.

As for the desert, those withered creatures carrying longswords on their backs were stiff and didn't say a word.

Now, people were unexpectedly conversing, and this made Chu Feng feel truly unsettled. He carefully listened in.

"My memory is muddled and I still can't remember. There's no difference between ants and dragons on the road to reincarnation; sure enough, all living things are equal. Who are we? Where are we going?"

"We must be sisters. We're going to be reborn, and we've obtained a supreme opportunity. My head hurts, though, and I can't remember anything else."

Chu Feng immediately knew what kind of people they were upon hearing this conversation. Surprisingly, they weren't so muddle-headed and had retained some memories. They were similar to that person who was carrying the gold talisman paper just now, but they were a bit more clear-headed and strong.

As expected, Chu Feng saw a silver light fly over high in the sky and cross the void as it transcended the incomparably pitch-black abyss. Someone had successfully arrived at this shore.

"This is… the other shore. We were successful, but as for what we must do next, I… have no memory."

Chu Feng clearly saw it from the top. This was a couple of twin sisters, and even though they were souls, they looked abnormally real and still retained their appearance from this world.

They both had silver hair and were exceptionally beautiful. They weren't weaker than Qin Luoyin. It could be said that they had perfect faces, yet at the same time, they possessed ghost-like bodies.

Aside from their human-like shape, they also had a pair of silver wings which shone with auspicious light. As they flapped their wings lightly, they seemed even holier than western angels.

They clearly weren't angelic creatures, but rather a type of astonishingly strong race. Even though they had been formatted, they were still supreme spirits comparable to dragons and phoenixes.

Chu Feng thought it over and tore off the bottom half of his sleeves to cover his face. This was because this pair of sisters were relatively clear-headed, and he didn't want them to notice him, an anomaly.

The pair's appearances were impeccable and beautiful without any flaws, especially because they looked exactly the same. This kind of offbeat grace further surpassed that of normal beauties.

Chu Feng suspected that if these two were from the same cosmos as him, they ought to be extremely famous, and they would most likely be ranked in the top ten beautiful women in the universe.

"Just wait until I go and investigate. If two people like this don't exist in my universe, then that should prove some things."

Chu Feng mulled it over in his heart.

The two sisters held a piece of talisman in their hands. Their whole bodies glowed silver and light beams shone from their joined hands.

There was a tadpole-like character on that talisman that looked like one of the ten glaring, gold characters on the millstone!

"A heaven-defying talisman!"

Chu Feng inwardly sighed. Every single thing that involved these ten characters was absolutely extraordinary! That person had previously received asylum, and now these two sisters used this as a pretext to come in the same way!

This was a silver talisman refined for them by a supreme existence. It provided them asylum and served as an offering. When offered here, it would allow them to be reincarnated along with their memories.

This time, Chu Feng whispered noiselessly and took an object out from the spatial bottle, covering his wrist with it. It was his snow-white, glistening diamond chakram.

He was studying the clay idol next to him, which had a string of bones on its hand. He then put on his own extremely valuable weapon that similarly wrapped around his wrist.

This pair of sisters supported themselves with the stone fence poles as they reached the top of the stairs. They were stunned after they saw the two shadows sitting there.

When they saw Chu Feng in particular, they suspected his body was made of flesh, and they felt even more shaken.

Even though they were quite bewildered and currently didn't have many memories, now they also had a type of instinct that came from the depths of their souls and felt it was inconceivable.

In the end, they still crouched down and kowtowed sincerely. Meanwhile, the silver talisman in their hands transformed into a stick of incense. It lit itself and turned into strands of silvery white, glowing smoke that rose in spirals.

Many of the silver smoke threads sank into the string of bones on the clay idol's wrist. There were still some silk-like threads floating around. They surrounded Chu Feng's wrist, but after a moment, the circling silver threads finally sank into the diamond chakram.

Chu Feng revealed a different countenance, but he didn't make any indication. With the two sisters here, he couldn't make any movements.

After the silver stick of incense finished burning, the string of bones on the clay idol's wrist glowed. Sure enough, the reincarnation cave opened once again. An auspicious glow blossomed on the stone wall and holy mist surged about. Everything was divine and peaceful.

The two sisters cried out in surprise and quickly rushed inside.

An astonishing light appeared in an instant. Like the first beam of light during the creation of the world, it brought with it a resonating great dao as it covered their bodies.

"It's… the immortal light of the absolute beginning. To think there was such a great creation! As soon as we descend to Earth, we'll be known as the immortal infants!"

The two sisters recovered their memories and were no longer perplexed. In this state, even they, who had long since prepared their hearts, were shocked beyond compare. They lost their voices as they cried out in surprise.

Clearly, this type of great creation exceeded their original expectations.

"Eh, did you notice? Just now, there were two entities sitting at the top, not just one. What's with that!?"

"I didn't dare look too much. I only noticed the one beside the shrine had a bracelet on its wrist. It's smelted from mother-of-all-gold. It looked like waste at a first glance, but on further inspection it looks rather terrifying. It's different from other world-startling metals of the same type."

"Cough!" Chu Feng let out a cough which shook the area.

He'd really feared those two sisters would turn back and investigate, and in the end he made such a sound. The pair of sisters instantly turned pale in the face, and they ran without looking back. Next they were enveloped by the immortal light of the absolute beginning, and just like that they were reincarnated!

The reincarnation cave disappeared, and the stone wall returned.

Then Chu Feng felt a fit of pain in his teeth. He'd released another great creation. Although he'd never heard of the immortal light of the absolute beginning before, it looked even stronger than the purple clouds of the primal chaos. It was extremely heaven-defying.

His heart was racing a bit now. He wanted to loot a creature carrying the talisman and burn incense here instead to reincarnate.

However, there was a matter gnawing at his mind. He had lived in the present age and wanted to be his original self even more.

"In this age, I'm no weaker than others. There's no need for envy. Under normal circumstances, I'll be able to reach this height eventually!"

Then, Chu Feng removed the diamond chakram and discovered something different when he looked at it. This bracelet had become increasingly translucent; it was snow-white and sparkling.

"I don't know how my power is now. What kind of result will there be if I fire it?" Chu Feng said to himself.

Afterwards, he felt bewildered because this diamond chakram was emitting a misty radiance. The inside of the circle was like a space about to take form, saturated with a frightening energy.

"This… they said it was an ultimate garbage that cannot develop any special divine powers. I can only throw it to strike targets at a distance. Now that I look at it, though, it seems it will transform."

Chu Feng was happy that this weapon was no longer silent.

He didn't leave because he'd learned some things from the pair of sisters. This might be an extraordinary period, so they could come to burn incense in search for a shortcut. They would then obtain the supreme fortune of being reincarnated with their memories.

Chu Feng decided to stay and look carefully.

As expected, another person came after a day. This time, it was a man with a dragon tail and the wings of a vermilion bird. He retained his human form, so his actual race was unknown.

He also carried a talisman, which was purple and engraved with a complicated character. He used this as pretext to cross over from high in the sky. The talisman then self-combusted and transformed into a stick of incense.

Chu Feng felt joy as the purple clouds floated over and twisted toward his wrist. They merged into the diamond chakram, which made it even more translucent and filled it with spirit.

This man was very brash. After entering the reincarnation cave, he recovered his memories and instantly said in an incomparably conceited way, "Those who chant my name will see eternal life in their reincarnation!"

Chu Feng cast a sidelong glare at him. He looked at that lofty background in the cave and thought to himself, "You're going reincarnate, yet you're still acting big?"

He picked up a stone and threw it at the back of the man's head.

"Ow!"

The dragon-tailed, lofty humanoid man with the vermillion bird wings didn't turn around in the end. He felt frightened and ran off wildly. Here, he too received the unimaginably great fortune.

Chu Feng sat here just like this for half a month until he had welcomed the last person holding talismans. Before this, there had been eight groups of people and nine people all together.

Now he welcomed the ninth group and the tenth person.

This was a daoist priest, yet he possessed a sneaky and crafty-looking face. He hadn't even kowtowed, but from time to time, he would glance toward Chu Feng and expose a flabbergasted look.

"How strange. This seems a bit wrong. Why is there another one? Where did it come from?" This young Daoist priest was clearly extraordinary. His consciousness was relatively clear and wasn't lost. He stealthily touched and sized up Chu Feng.

Chu Feng decided now was the time to attack and snatch his creation. Otherwise, this Daoist priest would certainly discover his abnormality.

At the crucial point when the Daoist priest was having his suspicions, Chu Feng smashed his diamond chakram forward.

The diamond chakram had become increasingly extraordinary ever since it enjoyed several offerings of incense. Now it descended and struck the crafty daoist so hard that he cried out in pain and collapsed, face up.

However, at this time the black talisman in his hand had already self-combusted, and the reincarnation cave in the stone wall had opened ahead of time.

Chu Feng jumped down and used the stone box to stop the stick of incense from burning. Then he made it reveal its original form of a black talisman.

However, the black talisman was missing a corner which had clearly been burnt away just now.

Chu Feng wanted to leave. He'd stayed here for far too long, yet he had no way to cross the abyss, so he snatched this crafty daoist's talisman.

Who told the Daoist priest to peep at him? Chu Feng had originally wanted to rob him, and this fellow had directly got in his line of fire, so he attacked just like that.

"Daoist, I won't treat you unfairly. I'll send you to your reincarnation."

Chu Feng picked up the semi-conscious Daoist priest and threw him right into the reincarnation cave. He didn't know if he would obtain the supreme opportunity just like the others.

Then Chu Feng decisively ran along. He didn't want to stay here any longer.

This was because he felt fear and trepidation when he was with the clay idol, and he was anxious something big would happen.

"Aw sh*t, who jumped me? Dammit, I haven't burnt the incense yet. The ceremony hasn't finished! How was I thrown into the cave?"

Chu Feng held the black talisman and was high up in the sky as he crossed the void. This was the last voice he heard from above the abyss. Then he vanished and decisively ran.

This talisman was truly heaven-defying and could allow him to freely push his way through this place. Moreover, if the day came when Chu Feng wanted to die, he could come here and choose the route of reincarnation. He could obtain the supreme fortune in the reincarnation cave and possess the aptitude of a heavenly infant or immortal infant.
