The Sacred Ruins

Chapter 461: In Over Your Head

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

In the starry skies, howls rang out on the origin beast platform.

"Oh heavens! The top character of an advanced planet’s younger generation, the strongest orthodoxy’s saintess has unexpectedly surrendered under the evil clutches of that native!"

"Oh God, quickly bring down thunder and hack that evil creature to bits! And then let me come as a replacement. Make him disappear! The saintess is mine!"

"Oh god, the goddess of my heart has been photographed for that scoundrel’s photobook, chop him to death! Ah, ah, ah... divine Chu Feng, please give me a copy of that photo book!"

Li Lin’s voice was gentle and beautiful, and she sounded especially sweet when she sang. She was actually obeying that native’s orders and singing his song. This made the group of people who had originally been on the platform howl in anguish like starving wolves.

This was especially true because Chu Feng had indeed mentioned the photobook just now. This made their eyes go red. They wanted to slap Chu Feng to death—how could he blaspheme the saintess like this? They were truly full of jealousy, admiration, and hatred.

Many people looked like they had been injected with the blood of a holy phoenix. The expression in their eyes was dreadful.

The pleasant-sounding singing voice resounded on the platform, and many people were recording it. It was easy to see that even the songs of those outstanding disciples from those sound wave researching holy lands weren’t this well-received.

Of course, there were also many people who, mad with grief and indignation, were shouting. They absolutely wanted to slaughter that aboriginal. They could not tolerate this kind of cruel outcome.

"Saintess Li Lin is using her body to feed the demon. I can’t bear this! I’m going to set foot on the star passage right away to go and save the goddess!"

Even knowing that it would be about a year before they would reach Earth, there were still some people who had set off to slaughter the devil, harboring unbounded resentment, indignation, and rage.

Outside of Earth, the dark-faced big fellow, the Sword Saint Duan Mu’s expression had long since changed. His eyes were filled with a primal chaos, thunder, and interweaving lightning. The saint’s fury caused terrifying heavenly phenomena to appear!

He had come for Li Lin, the saintess of his old friend’s family, and unexpectedly saw this scene. How lonely that saintess was, being forced to sing without rival!

Ding!

The resplendent light of a sword overflowed and illuminated the solar system! It was too brilliant!

Earth, on the Penglai Immortal Islands.

The group of people had been dominated. The weak were shivering and their calves and stomach were cramping. They were extremely horrified.

Chu Feng actually had this much influence? Some people felt relieved. He had such a background, so it was no wonder he had risen to power so quickly. Immediately, their scalps felt numb in a fit of horror.

Penglai believed itself to be the orthodox lineage, but if Chu Feng had truly come from a direct line of descent, then wouldn’t that make them a joke!?

At this moment, the glaring sword light in the sky and came down threaded together. It was incomparably frightening and seemed as if it was going to cut open the past, present, and future. It was poised to sever the flow of time and prove itself against eternity.

"Ah..."

Ahead, many Penglai evolvers were horrified. This was genuine divine light and it pressured them to the point of choking. Many people went limp and fell to the ground shivering.

The brilliant light from the sword was like the burning sun. Afterwards, it exploded!

Following that, all of the light surged down and was about to sink the multicolored ship. The scene was world-shaking!

At this moment, Chu Feng felt his hair stand on end. One could not say that he wasn’t nervous. At this moment, he felt like he had stepped into a ghost world and was so close to death.

Although he looked callous and had the temperament of an unfeeling devil, his cheeks had actually gone numb. He had been constricted by that qi and could not change his expression. Even his body had gone rigid.

However, in the eyes of the everyone from Penglai, this type of attitude was revered as god-like. That was the demeanor of a paragon!

Many people believed that he had summoned an undying saint!

"Ah, we have sinned. I said early on that the ancestors’ teachings cannot be disobeyed. We are servants, and everything was bestowed back then by our master. Breathing techniques, medicine farms, the treasures... all these things belonged to that bloodline, and they were given to us for free. Yet in the end, we bite the hand that feeds us. We wanted to betray them, and today our judgement has come."

The old man’s face went deathly pale and his voice trembled.

Snap!

Boom!

The piercing divine light exploded not far above Chu Feng’s head. There was a bursting sound of lightning and thunder as all kinds of dazzling runes appeared and interweaved madly. It was truly a brilliant sight to behold.

That was the runes of the Earth’s domain colliding with the shocking light of the sword. It created an endlessly terrifying scene.

Chu Feng was motionless as he stood surrounded by the world-destroying thunder, sword light, and runes. He steadfastly stood his ground. In this kind of a scene, his elegant bearing was truly like that of a demon!

Actually, the corner of Chu Feng’s mouth wanted to twitch and he wanted to curse. He did not want to act cool, but he really could not move.

Flop! Flop...

The large group of people sank to their knees and bowed down in worship. They were nearly scared out of their wits being faced with such a terrifying sight. Many were kowtowing, and their foreheads even bled.

The effect was exceptionally good. Groups of people kept kneeling down in repentance towards Chu Feng. Their foreheads were badly injured while tears and snot flowed down their faces.

Chu Feng was still cool, like a deity that had descended to the mortal world, but he was cursing mentally. When would he be able to move? He really didn’t want to keep playing this role. It was too exhausting, and he was a little bit nervous.

That sword’s light was truly dreadful and it only targeted him. Even if it couldn’t touch his body and spirit, its formless "influence" was still able to make his whole body go rigid.

"Being unrivaled is so lonely..." Li Lin was still singing. She hadn’t been affected because the Sword Saint Duanmu had come to save her.

At this time, the expression in Li Lin’s eyes was peculiar. She was watching Chu Feng attentively and really wanted to say, this scoundrel can really pretend. Even she could not see through the facade. He really was like the son of the demon!

Her graceful singing voice floated through the air. Add to that the lightning coming down from the Ninth Heaven, the horrific runes, and the interweaving sword light, the area was filled with indescribable, abnormal omens and an evil atmosphere.

At last, Chu Feng slowly took in a breath. His body still couldn’t move, but he could open his mouth, even though it took a great deal of effort. His voice was a bit hoarse as he said, "Your offerings, the objects for the gods and saints—give them to me!"

This was said through almost clenched teeth. His voice was hoarse, but it seemed increasingly grim.

At this time, even the silver turtle admired him. It exclaimed inwardly, this youngster can really play the part. He was too profound, too alike!

Many of the people of Penglai were rolling and crawling frantically. They quickly moved to find suitable objects. They went to the treasury to search for offerings so that they could revere Chu Feng as a god.

They were afraid that the frightful saint behind Chu Feng would come to slaughter everyone here.

Now, Duan Mu’s sword light finally ceased. This was because the attack was useless and he’d suffered a backlash instead. The essence blood of a saint had replaced him in being obliterated in outer space.

Chu Feng was finally able to move. Without delay, he told Li Lin to stop singing. He had also become a bit frightened; that Sword Saint was truly terrifying.

"What are you smiling about!?" He saw the silver turtle casting a sideways glance. It had discovered the truth of the situation, that Chu Feng was appearing fierce while being cowardly at heart, and was jeering at him in secret. Chu Feng went up and with a clang, he kicked it twice.

If it didn’t have the tortoiseshell, it was most likely that this mixed-blood galactic turtle would have died from the kick!

The silver turtle wanted to curse. It had truly become a punching bag. Following this, it had once again become padding to fill the gap underneath the table legs.

"Just look at your turtle self. You have the same morality and conduct as your ancestors. You’re so meaty and have no drive!" As a matter of fact, Chu Feng wasn’t talking nonsense because he had already provoked Jun Tuo. But in the end, aside from dropping the strange phenomena and getting angry, he did not make a move itself.

Outside of Earth, Jun Tuo was sitting cross-legged in his war chariot. From beginning to end, he didn’t show its face, but now he was transmitting a cold and detached voice to speak to the two saints.

"The ones I want to kill are the remnant survivors, the true sages. I don’t want to waste essence blood here!"

He had guessed that by targeting Earth like this, those remaining survivors might jump out and attack the planet he was on. In that case, he would rip apart the starry skies in an instant and charge back to behead the surviving members of that evil regime!

The galactic turtle bloodline didn’t have many clansmen. They were already settled down and did not fear retaliation in the least!

However, now after seeing Chu Feng venting at his descendant and scolding the old tortoise, he was truly furious. This was intolerable!

On the multicolored ship over Penglai Immortal Island, Li Lin revealed a strange appearance. She looked up at the blue dome of heaven, looking pensive as she harbored suspicions about the disappearance of the sword light.

"What happened?" inquired Chu Feng.

Li Lin was undisturbed as she wanted to create a certain pressure for Chu Feng. She said, "You had better let me go. I think a senior has come to take me away."

Chu Feng sneered. The Earth’s domains had recovered, and saints could not enter.

"That’s a close friend of my ancestral teacher. He will not give up until he has saved me," said Li Lin.

Chu Feng laughed and said, "It ought to be your founder’s pursuer, right?"

"Don’t speak such nonsense!" Li Lin reprimanded him, but she still felt a bit powerless.

Chu Feng saw through her expression and instantly understood. It was more or less the same as he’d guessed, and he instantly burst out laughing and said, "This saint is so stupid. He pursued all the way to the end only to be friend-zoned gloriously! Actually, he’s quite the failure."

"Stop making things up!" Li Lin instantly retorted.

Boom!

The origin beast platform had exploded. Some people had gone as far as to dig up the saint’s emotional history. It was quite .

"Oh my, I really couldn’t have imagined that Sword Saint Duan Mu had tried and failed to woo saintess Li Miao, haha... such a dark past!"

"Or it’s precisely because Sword Saint Duan Mu’s feelings were thwarted that he was able to establish the unparalleled sword arts, hehe..."

The origin beast platform was filled with noise and loud rumbling. The people were excited and their emotions were stirred up, as they were incredibly interested in the Saint’s dark past.

The commentator’s face instantly went green. This kind of matter was too terrible.

As for the renowned guests, they also shrunk back. They certainly wouldn’t participate in such a thing, and did not dare make even a single comment.

"Hehe, in those days that old codger Duan Mu persistently pursued the fairy Li Miao, sending her unicorn orchids every day, rain, hail, or shine—in the end though, he still left weeping bitter tears."

At this time, a saint appeared on the origin beast platform to expose the story.

"Oh my god, the Saber Saint has appeared! It’s indeed this saint, he’s logged in with an approved account to publish his opinions. Is he defying the heavens!?"

A few people knew that the Sword Saint and the Blade Saint were great rivals back then. This was because when they were young, they had both pursued saintess Li Miao.

Now, nobody dared to emerge and arbitrarily comment except for the saints on that level.

Li Lin did not know that her simple few sentences had triggered a huge quake in the heavens. This was because she could never have imagined that every major galaxy was watching Chu Feng’s live stream right now.

One must know that Earth was on the edge of the universe. Before, there was no interstellar network. How could she predict that now it would have this kind of coverage!

At this moment, Sword Saint Duan Mu’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he could no longer hold himself back as he shouted, "Li Lin, what kind of nonsense did you say!"

At the same time, on the Penglai Immortal Islands, there was a murderous spirit surging. A group of old people was crossing the waters, carrying power killer weapons to bombard and kill Chu Feng.

"Little evil creature, you dare swindle our clansmen?! You’re courting death!"

The Penglai Immortal Island was as big as a large continent. Chu Feng and his party were merely on the external area. This kind of fame and power could dominate normal evolvers, but the old monsters in the depths of the island won’t allow themselves to be pushed around. Were it not for the island’s area being as huge as a continent and them being far away, they would have come to kill as soon as they got the report!

"Run!" commanded Chu Feng immediately.

However, saintess Li Lin was unresponsive even with the threat of the photobook because. That was because, right then, she was stunned. She knew who had come—it was Sword Saint Duan Mu who had come in person.

Boom! Boom!

Chu Feng hurriedly moved to drive the multicolored ship himself and initiate a spatial leap. He had no regrets; he’d already known he couldn’t swindle offerings and valuable treasures.

The people in the depths of the Immortal Island weren’t stupid. How could they possibly be fooled?

He was already perfectly content with his current accomplishment.

"Grandchildren of Penglai, grandfather is leaving. Remember, you all crouched down, kowtowed and worshipped me! In the future, don’t act pretentiously in front of me. You group of servants, your backbones are already broken!"

With a whoosh, the multicolored ship disappeared as it leapt into space.

Behind him, the group of people was angry and in a towering rage. They had been disgraced. this was truly extraordinary shame and humiliation!

The group of people on the origin beast platform watched in interest and laughed.

In their eyes, Chu Feng was too unconventional, constantly challenging the saints’ dignity. He was originally grassroots and aboriginal, so they felt a strong connection with him. They hoped that he would "offend" the saints a few more times.

"This fellow is really a model for our generation. He finished pretending and then ran!"

"Oh my, this guy is too shameless. He took advantage of them and then left! Is he trying to infuriate the people of that Penglai island? He’s worthy of being called one of us!"

In the outer realm, three saints’ faces were quite ugly. They had discovered the comments on the Origin Beast platform. Surprisingly, they did not receive any sympathy.

The Saber Saint emerged again and said, "This kid is to my liking. His actions are tyrannical; he snatched Fairy Li Miao’s descendent and made her his maid. If I were this aggressive back then, I might not have become like this. As for Sword Saint Duan Mu, that fellow who only knows sniveling, there’s no need to give any more thought. Give him another opportunity, and he’ll just wipe his tears. If there’s a time when Chu Feng comes to the depths of the heavens, I, the Blade Saint, will treat him to a drink!"

These words brought howling laughter and incited excitement on the origin beast platform. They hoped he would say more and produce more breaking news material.

Sword Saint Duan Mu was so angry that his fingers were trembling.

Not long afterwards, a startling crisis appeared.

This was because a saint was angry and vowed to eliminate Chu Feng.

The saint’s techniques were endless. They could certainly kill anyone once the appropriate price was paid and as long as they didn’t wantonly damage Earth.

Chu Feng drove the multicolored ship. It was very leisurely at first.

He suddenly looked up and his pupils rapidly contracted. This was because the sky was densely packed with battleships. They were like dumplings as they constantly appeared and landed amidst pitter-patters.

"Is it a strange phenomenon?!"

Initially, he still had his suspicions as to whether this was another saint’s technique creating the illusion of a heavenly phenomenon.

However, the fine hairs on his body immediately stood up. He drove the multicolored ship and promptly fled.

"I’ll see who dares save you. Who can save you!?" said the ancient saint Jun Tuo. His desire to commit murder was awe-inspiring. Up until now, he hadn’t made a move, but in the end, he couldn’t hold back anymore.

His descendant had been beaten, and he had been criticized as an old turtle, triggering the laughter of many people on the origin beast platform. Jun Tuo, the ancient saint, could not take it anymore.

There were many battleships in the solar system that had been constantly researching how to enter Earth safely. Now, they were summoned by Jun Tuo, who had given them the protection of holy blood and permitted the battleships to land.

One could see that many warships had a red light outside of them; they were protected by a secret force.

"There’s never been one I, Jun Tuo, can’t kill!" said Jun Tuo with a cold and detached voice.

"Jun Tuo you old tortoise, grandpa won’t die! What can you do to me!?" challenged Chu Feng. Jun Tuo’s cold words had penetrated through space and reached his ears.

Boom!

In the next moment, he felt the threat of death. A certain battleship erupted with light as it came to attack him.

Additionally, the experts of the machine race had appeared. Their bodies were enveloped in a faint red light. They had come diving down towards him from the blue dome of heaven.

This was consuming holy blood, protecting them and enabling them to enter Earth to kill Chu Feng.

The saint had paid the price in blood and sent the machine race down. He swore he would kill Chu Feng, and he wouldn’t give him any way to survive.

"Oh crap! This time you’re in over your head!" Chu Feng’s complexion changed, and he was secretly speechless. He had really gone too far. This kind of crisis had never appeared before. This was a matter of life and death. A great catastrophe was imminent!
