The Sacred Ruins
chapter-789

The envoy carefully hurled black magnetic flags. A few of which were definitely tactics to confuse people deliberately done in an incomparably complex manner.

After that, this old woman tossed out a few black magnetic flags churning with clouds and mist. As a result of that, mist soared around this region and surrounded the bloody mountain peak.

“The envoy is very cautious. She’s afraid that someone would spy on the domain route here, so she covered it up with black magnetic mist to isolate our sight,” a middle-aged knight at the golden body realm softly said. He led more than a thousand people who were responsible for guarding this region.

Chu Feng originally thought so, too, but he soon saw indications that the old woman and Pu Lin had faints smiles on their faces when they looked at each other.

After Chu Feng activated his Fiery Eyes, golden runes twinkled in his soul. That magnetic mist couldn’t block his sight, and he could still everything very clearly as before.

“These two are odd. Could they be embezzling the divine beast blood?” Chu Feng seriously harbored his suspicions about it.

Those few people who followed the both of them up the mountain were his trusted aides. Pu Lin felt very at ease with them, but the old woman was watching Pu Lin strictly. In the end, Pu Lin only took one trusted aide along with them to be responsible for carrying the jade barrel.

“She’s stealing the divine beast blood!”

At this moment, Chu Feng saw everything clearly. Even if magnetic mist was covering the mountain peak and it was completely hazy, he could still see everything vividly.

The old woman rapidly moved as she retrieved a jade jar and opened a hint of the seal on the barrel used to seal the divine blood. After that, she extracted some of the scarlet yet resplendent divine beast blood and poured it into the jade jar.

She was done in an instant and put the jade jar away.

Besides, they had already arrived at the peak of the mountain at this moment. There were five medicinal herbs here, and its fragrance filled the air to the point where it deeply penetrated one’s heart. It was sparkling, translucent, and glittering brilliantly as it contained the essence of heaven and earth.

After that, the old woman completely removed the seal and blood light charged through the firmament in a split second. Even if the peak of the mountain was covered in mist, it couldn’t cover this kind of light.

Sure enough, the blood of a fully grown divine beast was universally shocking.

Evidently, the blood had been refined and the fiendish qi within it had been removed. If not, the young noble Pu Lin who was at the quasi-golden body realm definitely wouldn’t be able to come in contact with this kind of blood.

If it still contained the divine beast’s fiendish qi, the living beings nearby would explode from the impact; even those at the perfect golden body realm couldn’t withstand this.

Roar!

At this moment, about ten thousand mounts yelled together near the bloody mountain peak. They were incomparably frenetic and were all revering something with a kind of deep sense of fear.

Under such pressuring might, it didn’t matter if it was the ferocious beasts or the raptors because they immediately fell to the ground weakly like soldiers facing their sovereign king.

Those cavalrymen on the mounts were slightly pale and they all hopped off their mounts.

The fiendish qi in the divine beast blood had certainly been thoroughly refined, but the aura unique to a supreme beast king still made the birds and animals tremble as they couldn’t stop themselves from worshiping said aura.

As such, the mounts were making mournful sounds and trembling uncontrollably over here.

Ouyang Feng’s body was stretched taut as well and he felt his scalp go numb. He was a divine beast, too, but when he was before the boiling blood of a fully grown divine beast with surging Yang qi, he was actually horrified.

He was somewhat nervous and increasingly understood why. He was only a divine beast in the Yin Realm and was considered to be a ghostly beast which was vastly different compared to this kind of divine beast that had an abundance of Yang qi.

This resembled a pilgrimage as the ferocious beasts lowly roared, the raptors whined whilst trembling, and various mounts were densely packed together as they all crouched across a vast expanse of land.

In the end, the young noble Pu Lin paled atop the mountain. He personally made a move and poured out a portion of divine beast blood over there and watered five medicinal plants that were only a third of a meter high.

After the divine beast blood had nourished these medicinal herbs, a shocking ball of light erupted all of a sudden. It was abnormally resplendent as many different colors blossomed.

Brilliant rays of dazzling light shone above the mountain peak and some medicinal herbs were completely golden. Others had turned an even darker red, while some were silver white as bright as snow…

After the divine beast blood was used to nourish five kinds of medicinal herbs, their colors changed and dense divinity aura filled the air.

“War God!”

At this moment, over ten thousand knights loudly roared around the bloody mountain peak and shook the mountains and rivers.

They were roaring and praising the War God’s might because they knew where this kind of divine beast blood came from.

Countless fully grown divine beasts had come to take revenge in the few recent days, and as a result of that, they were narrowly massacred. The War God who had comprehended all the mysteries of the world had expropriated an awful amount of blood from the strongest divine beast since he had almost massacred the strongest divine beast thoroughly by covering the sky with a single hand.

“War God!” Loud roars shook the mountains and rivers.

“F*ck me!” Ouyang Feng couldn’t help but to curse because he almost exploded following this kind of roar.

Those knights felt hot blood surging through them as their moods were lifted up high. They were shouting out for the War God in an almost crazed worshiping manner. At this moment, their blood and Yang qi had charged outside of their bodies.

In a split second, everyone’s blood qi rushed up and filled this area of the sky. Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng found it difficult to endure this, and they rapidly withdrew further back.

They reckoned they would explode if a few more roars like this were unleashed!

Even so, Ying Xiaoxiao turned pale, too, as cracks appeared on her soul. The roars almost killed her!

After that, Chu Feng stared at the mountain peak from a sufficiently distant place. He saw the young noble Pu Lin stealing the divine mistt; when he was watering the five medicinal herbs, he used a jade jar to fetch a share of the blood.

“He’s taking bribes!”

Chu Feng had a fervent gaze, and he almost drooled.

One could see that resplendent red clouds had charged up into the sky from the mountain peak. There was no need to doubt the medicinal efficacy of that divine beast blood because it was definitely very shocking.

He increasingly longed to obtain it. This kind of item most likely could truly wash off the Yin qi tangled around their body completely. Their souls could then transform and dense Yang qi will appear thereafter.

There were more than one bloody mountain peaks, and a few rare worldly-treasured medicines were growing on each respective one of them. One barrel of divine beast blood was divided equally amongst them.

Regardless of whether it was that envoy or Pu Lin, neither dared to steal the divine beast blood again for fear that they would meet with mishap. They started to play their part as they seriously watered the medicinal herbs on the few remaining mountain peaks.

This envoy had to arrange new arrays each time she climbed the mountain to open up a safe route.

Chu Feng frowned because the domains arranged on the few bloody mountain peaks were different which increased the pressure on him. If they were arranged in the same manner, he could observe and emulate it many times thereby comprehending it thoroughly.

“Have you polished and refined it?” Ouyang Feng secretly sent a voice transmission because he was really looking forward to it.

“It’s very difficult. I reckon it will be very difficult for a common great domain master to break it even if one were to come. That envoy really doesn’t have a profound mastery of domains, but rather he ought to have seen a detailed explanation of domain maps before.”

In the end, the envoy left feeling perfectly content.

Pu Lin also had a smile stretching across his whole face. He was very delighted to collaborate with the old woman this time because each one of them got a jar of divine beast blood. This was really too precious.

At this moment, there was sparkling and translucent scarlet light coming from a few bloody mountain peaks. They were still shining after the divine beast blood seeped into the soil.

“Time waits for no man. That divine beast blood has seeped into the soil. If this continues on, it’s going to dry up and all we can do is watch helplessly as that happens.” Ouyang Feng was very anxious.

At this moment, the young noble Pu Lin walked over with a bright expression as he said, “Yan Luo, I set a condition for you to temporarily retreat from the rest of the knights. Leave this region and seize the opportunity to enlist those Yin spirits to us by offering amnesty to them. I quietly await good news!”

There was no doubt that the main reason why he was leaving so urgently was to obtain the divine beast blood because he wanted to try out its effects.

Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng banded together and really wanted to get rid of this young noble so they could snatch the divine beast blood he was pouring away. However, there were too many knights by his side; their blood qi surged, and there was no way for them duo to get close to him.

Ying Zhexian dealt with it very appropriately. She told Pu Lin that she would definitely have an outcome that would satisfy him in a few days and he could wait for good news.

“Very good!” Pu Lin burst out laughing and led the troops to leave.

A smile appeared on Chu Feng’s face. Since these people had left into the distance, he had to make preparations to make a move and see if he could attempt to ascend one of the bloody mountain peaks.

But his smile quickly vanished. Three knights left and returned; Pu Lin had sent these trusted aides of his and said it was to provide assistance to Chu Feng and Ying Zhexian in helping them to overcome various difficulties.

In reality, Pu Lin still didn’t feel too at ease and was afraid that Chu Feng and the rest would run away.

“Yan Luo, when are you going to subdue those Yin spirits?” asked a knight sat on a barbaric beast as he overlooked Chu Feng from up high. There was an unruly brilliance in his eyes.

After he finished looking at Chu Feng, he stared at Ying Zhexian without the slightest scruple and there was even somewhat of a passionate look in his eyes.

He felt that if he could find a suitable physical body for Ying Zhexian, she would be reconstructed as an extraordinarily beautiful woman in this generation.

“I’m not in a hurry,” Chu Feng responded. How could he possibly leave now. He was rushing for time and was still prepared to steal the sacred medicine and draw the divine beast blood, too.

“What do you mean? The young noble left and set out this condition for you, yet you’re actually slacking off during work! Aren’t you going to quickly enlist yourselves to us by offering amnesty!?”

Chu Feng was speechless. He already made out that the gaze this knight had when he looked at Ying Zhexian wasn’t right. Thus, he implicated him and was now urgently forcing him to leave.

“Femme fatale,” he secretly said to Ying Zhexian.

“Simple. We’ll just kill him.” Ying Zhexian was rather decisive because they would leave after they finished plucking the sacred medicine from this place. As such, she was not afraid of shedding all pretense of cordiality with them.

“Aren’t you going to hurry up and do what you were asked to do? Didn’t you hear the order I gave you!?” The quasi-golden body realmed knight’s face sank.

“I know when it is time to go. Also, the young noble asked you guys to stay behind to cooperate with us, not for you to be hoity toity and boss people around as you please,” said Chu Feng.

He didn’t make a move immediately because he was afraid of alarming the knight who left just now. At the very least, he had to wait for their torrential blood qi to completely disappear from the end of the horizon.

“You really made yourself out to be a dish. Even if you rely on us for help, you’re still a ghostly slave,” lashed out this knight at the quasi-golden body realm.

The two other knights laughed and had irreverent expressions too.

“I can’t help but to remind you that a yin spirit like you are incapable of being on equal standing with us from the very beginning. Mind the way you speak. You’re only the young noble’s ghostly slave,” said one of them.

“We can make our move now!” Ying Xiaoxiao secretly sent Chu Feng a voice transmission to indicate that she was already prepared.

On another hand, an ominous glint flashed in the depths of Ouyang Feng’s eyes, too. He was already itching to make a move since a long time ago. He secretly informed Chu Feng that he too was prepared.

Even Ying Xiaoxiao was seething. She was extremely displeased.

“Die!”

There was a cold and sinister look in Chu Feng’s eyes. He suddenly attacked and immediately struck his Soul Bell. After the black bell flew out, it collided with the quasi-golden body realmed knight head’s and shattered it into pieces with a plop.

“You…” The knight at the quasi-golden was furious. His spirit body charged out, and he was incomparably startled yet furious as he looked at his tattered physical body.

His body was actually destroyed. If it wasn’t for the fact that he had rapidly reacted, his soul would have blown up as well.

Pff!

Pff!

Ouyang Feng and Ying Zhexian attacked respectively, but they didn’t succeed in doing so in the first possible moment. After their soul light rumbled through the two knights’ physical bodies, the sound of tearing could be heard as that scorching blood and yang qi injured them!

“How daring of you!” The two of them were furious.

“Shoot! Their physical bodies are protecting them! Their innate blood qi is restraining us!” Ouyang Feng cried out in bewilderment.

Bang!

In a split second, Chu Feng utilized his soul light, too, and launched it at one of their heads. In the end, that person encountered the same outcome, and his soulforce burned as a result of his physical body.

He couldn’t help but to suck in a cold breath of air. It was no wonder that Ying Zhexian’s Five-colored Divine Light would lose its effectiveness and even his powerful soul light did nothing because their opponent’s blood qi burned them.

Chu Feng immediately knew where the crux of the issue was, so he shouted, “You guys, retreat!”

He commanded his Soul Bell and engaged in a fierce battle with the both of them. In reality, the both of them were already stamping with fury and had charged over to attack. Were it not for the fact that their physical bodies were protecting them, they would have been done for a moment ago.

At the same time, they were very startled because they normally used a special method to train their physical bodies in the army.

Dong…

In the end, the soul bell rumbled and injured the two knights’ souls as though they were struck by lightning.

The key thing was that Chu Feng’s black bell wasn’t purely a soul weapon; it had a material existence, too, and was formed out of the Yang Realm Seed so it was harmful to their physical bodies and souls, too.

Pfft pfft!

The two of them were killed!

At the same time, that soul at the quasi-golden body realm from before turned around and fled upon seeing this. He sensed that things were taking a turn for the worst. In the end, he struck the Soul Bell and launched a frightening expanse of bell waves to wring him to death.

Even though they had successfully killed three knights, Chu Feng, Ying Zhexian, and Ouyang Feng looked grave. The people they encountered in the army were actually so intractable.

“They’re from the army so they have fiendish blood on them as well as the densest Yang qi, all of which are specially used to restrain spirit bodies with Yin qi like us!”

“We can’t attack them with soul light next time. When we encounter those from the army next time, it’s much more dependable for us to attack them with soul weapons right away.”

After the root cause was analysed, they were increasingly resoluted to baptize the Yin qi from their bodies as early as possible. If they were to do so, they wouldn’t be restrained like this.

Chu Feng used the local resources and dug up a few magnets from the earth nearby. He started arranging them to establish a safe route as he continuously got closer to a bloody mountain peak.

They were prepared to acquire the divine beast blood and pluck the sacred medicine!
