Chapter 955
955 Chapter 954, crippled heavenly venerate
The Vermilion Bird Abyss was pitch-black and deep. It was like a black hole in the universe that cut off the entire land.
There was a lack of vitality nearby. Even the plants had dried up. The ground was filled with cracks that extended far away.
Chu Feng frowned deeply. He had sensed that something was wrong at the first moment. The energy radiation in this area was too abnormal and ridiculously high.
!!
In the abyss, it was like a surging tide. The energy radiation was extremely violent, causing all life in this region to be extinguished. It was on the verge of turning into a dead land.
He was bewildered. This was quite similar to the signs of a God who was about to pass away. His heart immediately sank. Was it the old Vermillion Bird?
Before coming here, he had heard some rumors that the old Vermillion Bird had gone crazy a year ago. He had slaughtered his way into the Savage Beast Plateau and slaughtered a god.
It was reported that that God had once said that once the Vermillion Bird clan declined, it would come and kill them.
In the end, the old Vermillion Bird, in its later years, when it didn’t have much time left to live, went to the door first. It slaughtered its way into another great camp and directly killed the god.
This kind of battle record was too terrifying. After that, the old Vermillion Bird didn’t show itself. Everyone thought that it was going to die completely and die in the abyss.
However, no one dared to provoke it. No one dared to come and take advantage of it in its final years.
Everyone knew that the old Vermillion Bird was too powerful. It had cultivated for a long time. It did not absorb divine particles and dao ancestor materials like other creatures did. Instead, it evolved step by step. Therefore, its old age would not be very miserable. If it really wanted to fight with its life on the line.., it could still fight!
Many people were waiting for an opportunity. Once it was completely dead, they would definitely come and kill it. They would cut off its roots and eliminate its descendants.
“Is it really going to die in meditation?”Chu Feng sighed. He had been like this since a year ago when he received the news on the way.
It was precisely because of this that the Vermillion Bird Abyss had temporarily avoided the flames of war. No one was willing to provoke a terrifying vermillion bird that was dying but could still go crazy and fight bloody battles.
Chu Feng called out softly and transmitted his voice to the Great Abyss, informing him that he had returned.
However, there was no response.
His heart trembled as he sank into the earth layer in an instant. He was using domain techniques to shrink the ground to a distance of 100,000 kilometers and hide in an unknown place.
No one chased after him, which made Chu Feng suspicious.
In the end, he went back and used geomagnetism to detect the movements of the Vermilion Bird Abyss with Earth Qi that was so weak that it couldn’t be touched by outsiders.
A quarter of an hour later, Chu Feng appeared at the bottom of the Black Rift Valley. His expression was uncertain.
There was a divine corpse here, but it definitely wasn’t the old Vermilion Bird’s. It had been set up by someone and its energy radiation was astonishing.
This involved an extremely profound technique. If it wasn’t for Chu Feng’s exceptional attainments in domains, it would be difficult to believe that there was another divine corpse here.
At the same time, he discovered important inscriptions here. Moreover, they belonged to the Netherworld universe. This was left for him to provide clues.
It wasn’t a direct message but a code. It simply mentioned the most powerful path manual. It was marked with the first 81st word, the fourth 13th, the fifth 9th word, and the 39th word..
Chu Feng was speechless. This was the work of the crippled heavenly venerate fox. Back then, he had given Chu Feng a so-called most powerful path manual. It was the culmination of the Old Fox’s master’s hard work and was known as an extremely mature training method.
At that time, Chu Feng had felt regretful that he wasn’t from a “Specialized class”background. He had always been an unorthodox person and hadn’t cultivated to the flawless level in many places.
The crippled Fox had given him this manual and told him that if he had the chance, he might as well give it a try. This was an extremely mature path in the Yang World and was a work of painstaking effort.
Chu Feng deciphered the message. It was a secret location with specific coordinates.
He disappeared and left from there.
This time, Chu Feng didn’t cross the battlefield and no longer went to kill the enemy. Instead, he went into stealth and relied on the origin magnetic pulse to travel. It took him a full two days before he arrived at the location.
However, he still missed this time. There was no one here and it was only a message. After deciphering it, it was still a coordinate address.
Chu Feng had no choice but to set off again. It could be seen that the crippled heavenly venerate fox and the Vermillion Bird family were very cautious. This also meant that their situation was terrible.
If they were powerful enough, why would they need to be so careful?
After Chu Feng deciphered the location five times in a row, he continued to search on the road.
The last place was in a desolate stone forest that stretched as far as the eye could see. After Chu Feng found his destination, he sensed that there were evolvers lying in wait.
Chirp!
With a light chirp, a scarlet bolt of lightning flew over. It brought with it a monstrous flame as it pounced towards Chu Feng at an extreme speed.
He shifted horizontally in an instant and stood on a huge rock dozens of kilometers away. The place where he was originally standing had turned into a lava lake. Following that, a catacombs appeared on the ground. All the lava flowed into it and turned into a vortex.
A fiery-red bird with bright-red sparkling wings was looking at him with its head tilted.
“Chu Feng? !”It cried out in surprise. Its voice was clear and melodious. It was the voice of a young girl.
The Little Vermillion Bird!
It was definitely it. Chu Feng recognized it at a glance. He didn’t expect that the final part of the journey would be so smooth. He found the right place and discovered this race.
Swoosh!
Chu Feng rushed over and came close to it. He looked at it carefully and touched the cluster of bright-red feathers on its head. In the end, the Little Vermillion Bird widened its eyes and pecked at it with its sharp and bright-red beak.
“It Hurts!”Chu Feng shouted. He was somewhat speechless.
This little bird was very aggressive and didn’t even allow him to touch it. Fortunately, he was at the saint level, or else a bloody hole would definitely have appeared on his hand.
The Little Vermillion Bird looked at him warily and warned him not to touch anything.
Chu Feng was speechless. He finally knew what mistake he had made. The voice it emitted was that of a young girl. There was no doubt that this was a proud and beautiful girl with a hint of embarrassment and anger.
“Where are senior Zhu and senior Fox?”Chu Feng asked. This was because after arriving here, there was no fluctuation of life from anyone else. Only the Little Vermillion Bird’s own life and didn’t see its brothers and sisters.
Hearing his words, the little vermillion bird was dejected. Her eyes were filled with tears as she told Chu Feng that it was now a life and death parting and that they would never see each other again.
Chu Feng was greatly shocked when he heard this and hurriedly asked for more details.
The Old Vermillion Bird was a peerless expert among the current generation of divine level experts in the foreign lands. A year ago, she had killed her way into the Savage Beast Plateau to slaughter the gods.
And under the Abyss, the so-called energy radiation was obviously a lie. She should be alive.
“My mother died a year ago.”The Little Vermillion Bird cried. Her entire body was sparkling and translucent like red agate. Her large eyes were filled with tears and she was crying sadly.
The best among the gods of the foreign lands were close to the godly king’s domain, but in the end, they still could not endure it. They had already died.
The Little Vermillion Bird cried as it spoke. Its tears rolled down like pearls. Its mother had not been able to hold on for long after she returned from slaughtering the gods a year ago. Her lifespan was about to come to an end.
However, the old Vermillion Bird was quite tough. It did not want to wait for death. It directly charged into the first forbidden ground of the foreign lands. It wanted to try the last heaven-defying move and fight for a lifetime’s future.
Unfortunately, he failed. Not long after charging into that forbidden ground, his soul light was extinguished and he died there forever.
“Are you sure senior has passed away? Perhaps there might be other opportunities. He’s only temporarily trapped,”Chu Feng comforted.
The Little Vermillion Bird cried and shook his head. At that time, he and the Old Fox had personally sent him off. From Afar, he had seen his mother fall into the forbidden ground forever and never get up again. She was indeed dead.
Chu Feng let out a sorrowful sigh when he heard this. He felt quite displeased and regretful. Back then, the old Vermillion Bird had treated him very well and had made great efforts to send him back to the netherworld.
He didn’t expect that they would be separated forever back then. What it said about persisting for another fifty years couldn’t be realized.
“Where’s senior Fox?”
After a long silence, Chu Feng spoke again.
He didn’t see her here and an ominous feeling arose in his heart. Could it be that the old Fox was completely petrified and had died?
“Here.”The Little Vermillion Bird led the way and walked towards the depths of the stone forest. Finally, they stopped in front of a stone mountain where a small cave dwelling was carved out.
Chu Feng was stunned when he saw the crippled Old Fox. Things had indeed changed when they met again. It had only been a few months in the netherworld, but thirty years had already passed here.
In front of him, a stone statue of the crippled Fox was enshrined on a jade table. Its expression was desolate as it raised its head to look into the distance. It wanted to see through the void and gaze into the Yang realm.
It was completely petrified. There wasn’t a single bit of flesh and blood. It had turned into a stone statue.
“Senior!”
Chu Feng felt even more regret in his heart. He wanted to come and ask for more advice. This Fox’s origins were extremely mysterious and extraordinary. If there was no falsehood, it would be a heavenly venerate.
At this moment, he realized that most things in life weren’t as they should be. There were always regrets in reality that didn’t match his expectations. He thought he would be able to reconnect with an old friend from another realm.
“Poor senior. The night scenery is desolate. I’ve been lonely for half my life and ended up like this.”
Chu Feng sighed and paid his respects here.
Then he said, “Senior, don’t worry. After I enter the Yang Realm, I’ll definitely go to the Fox clan and take good care of your so-called heaven-bestowed genius’s granddaughter.”
“If you don’t give up your evil intentions, I Won’t beat you to death!”Who knew that the stone fox would actually speak. Chu Feng was startled and quickly took a few steps back with his mouth agape.
The last time he mentioned the old Fox’s descendant, Chu Feng’s eyes lit up. He had said that the fox race had many beauties and that he wanted to take a look and help the old Fox take care of his descendant. In the end, he was sprayed with saliva at that time.
“Senior, did you come back to life? No, you’ve come back to life. You have to thank me. It was my words that stimulated you to come back to life!”Chu Feng muttered.
In truth, he knew that the old Fox hadn’t died at all. His current condition was terrible. His body had been petrified, but his soul light hadn’t dispersed.
The crippled Old Fox glared at him. In the end, he wasn’t angry. He sighed and said, “Seeing the pent-up anger on your face, you must have either lost your parents or lost all your relatives. How miserable is life?”
These words caused Chu Feng’s face to be filled with sorrow and dejection.
The Little Vermillion Bird couldn’t help but sigh. The older the ginger, the spicier it was. The Stone Fox didn’t bicker with Chu Feng or berate him. Just a few words had made him listless.
After Chu Feng was heartbroken, he quickly came to a realization. This old fellow really wasn’t at a disadvantage. Every time he opened his mouth, he would stir up his depressed emotions. He was incomparably shrewd.
“Senior, I’ve missed all of you. We’ve been separated for so many years and I can’t wait to come back and listen to your teachings. However, I was hindered by the affairs of the world and wasn’t able to come in time.”
“Tell me, what happened?”The Crippled Stone Fox asked.
He had already admitted that his condition wasn’t good. His Master had dealt a heavy blow to him, causing him to fall from his original realm. After being trapped in this world, his condition deteriorated day by day. One day, his soul would also become rigid and completely petrified.
Chu Feng sighed. That Almighty from the Yang realm was too ruthless. Even his own disciple could be punished like this without any mercy.
His eyes were dim as he briefly spoke about the Netherworld universe.
“One of Tai Wu’s Dao bodies has died. This is truly unexpected.”The Stone Fox was moved and then told Chu Feng that its current condition was terrible. Every communication time was limited, so he had to get to the main point.
“I want to become stronger. I want to become a god. I want to rise up in this world as soon as possible!”Chu Feng said. Then he asked where the other Little Vermillion Bird brothers and sisters had gone.
The old fox said, “I used all my methods and finally sent them into the Yang realm. Unfortunately, I can’t guarantee their survival.”.
Chu Feng immediately became spirited and said, “Senior, send me into the Yang realm as well. I’ll sneak over and kill them all!”
“Do you think I still have the strength to attack in my current state?”The Old Fox stared at him and said, “It’s actually a physical body?”
In truth, the Little Vermillion Bird had also been sizing up Chu Feng. His physical body descending into the foreign realm was quite astonishing!
Chu Feng didn’t dare mention the stone box. After all, the Old Fox was known as a heavenly venerate and was truly afraid of any mishaps. After experiencing the Tai Wu incident, he could see that the heavenly venerate’s desire for this ultimate item was too strong.
He took out the soul bell and said, “I only dared to set off with its protection. You saw it the last time and used it to protect the Little Vermillion Bird. I almost succeeded in entering the netherworld.”
Although the Old Fox’s eyes were made of stone, they seemed to be very deep. He stared at him for a few moments and said, “At least you still have a conscience and know how to come back and welcome the Little Vermillion Bird.”
Then.., he spoke again, “However, since you’ve cultivated the incomplete version of the six paths of time technique and have decided to evolve crazily in this world, then you should be prepared to be strangled by the strange substance in your later years. It will be very tragic and very miserable. You’re really ignorant and fearless.”
“Senior, please help me resolve it.”Chu Feng’s expression was solemn as he asked for advice.
“A heavenly venerate in his peak state can naturally save those whose problems aren’t too serious. However, you will cultivate for a hundred years and become a deity through this. You are destined to be unsolvable.”The crippled heavenly venerate Fox shook his head.
Chu Feng didn’t speak and frowned deeply.
“There’s only one way. Go and get the talisman paper,”said the Old Fox.
“What Talisman Paper?”Chu Feng was stunned.
The crippled heavenly venerate fox said, “Didn’t you come into contact with it on the path of reincarnation? This time, I’ll guide you to a place. Take two and give one to the Little Vermillion Bird.”
“This kind of talisman paper? !”Chu Feng was shocked, putting aside whether he should take this path or not, just this kind of thing was enough to make his heart palpitate. This was because it was too rare. Even in the Yang realm, it was priceless. Only during special times.., one could occasionally take it out after entering the most terrifying forbidden grounds in the Yang realm.
As for the young Daoist who claimed to be a heavenly venerate, in their world, the world’s great sects had joined hands and finally vanished into thin air. Only a few people were left to take out a black talisman paper from their first forbidden ground, it fell into the young Daoist’s hands.
Now, the Old Fox lame legs opened his mouth and wanted to guide him to take out two pieces?
He helped someone advertise: “The city’s most powerful landlord”becomes the landlord and takes in tenants from all walks of life..
