Chapter 314: Lift Me Up

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

For a moment, people everywhere were restless. An odd extraterrestrial object had fallen into the southern sea. However, the people on the continent had no way to enter the ocean.

They only knew that the southern sea was in chaos. The hegemon experts of the marine race were fighting fiercely as they all wanted to obtain the dozen meter metallic item.

"Just what is that thing?" The major powers of both east and west could no longer sit still. Some of them were worried, while some were envious.

However, all these things were temporarily unrelated to Chu Feng. They had arrived at Mount Kunlun and were received warmly by the group of great demons. It was almost like a festive celebration.

Because not only had Chu Feng saved a peerless expert like the Mastiff King back at Mount Longhu, he had also protected others like the Snow Leopard King and the Horse King.

"Come, Brother Chu, let's drink some wine. Just forget about those vexing matters. This old horse won't ignore you even if you become an ordinary person. You must meet my daughter this time without fail. I'll immediately call her back from that temple in Tibet. She can't keep cultivating all the time."

The Horse King had drunk too much and his speech was slurred. He and Chu Feng had their arms around each other's shoulders. The overly passionate man, with his shiny bald head, was emitting a strong scent of alcohol.

The Snow Leopard King also comforted Chu Feng. "Brother, you just recuperate here. You might have a chance to recover when the mists at the depths of Kunlun clear up and the home of myriad gods open.

Currently, they had already understood that Chu Feng had truly encountered a serious problem and wasn't just pretending. His body was enshrouded in diffuse black light and his energy had fallen below the king level.

"The old llama will return tomorrow. We'll go to the Himalayas together at that time to search for fortunes. I believe we'll be able to help Brother Chu Feng break his curse," said the Chiru King.

All the kings believed Chu Feng had been cursed by an evil spirit. They didn't know about the seriousness of the black material at all. Some people felt that there would be a way to suppress and dissolve this problem after entering the ancient Buddhist grounds.

"Everyone, rest well. We will move out within a few days!" the Mastiff King spoke. He had a great reputation among them.

Because Chu Feng had saved his life back at Mount Longhu, the Mastiff King felt that he had to go to that ancient temple and find a way to help Chu Feng deal with his plight.

After the banquet dispersed, Yellow Ox helped Chu Feng perform a detailed examination and was momentarily dumbfounded. The mysterious black and silver substances were shifting between each other.

The old llama returned on the second day accompanied by the Elder Lion, who had completely surrendered and converted to Buddhism.

The Elder Lion was known to be unrivaled and was counted within the top ten greatest experts. But now, he was extremely obedient and had become the old llama's mount.

Gazing from a distance, the old llama was like a golden arhat. He slit open his wrist and, as promised, gave Yellow Ox some of his blood.

However, something odd happened when the latter tried to baptize Chu Feng with the processed mixture of king level blood. The blood hadn't even approached Chu Feng when they were burnt away and immediately turned to ash.

"Although I knew the effects wouldn't be evident, I had never expected things to turn out this way." Yellow Ox was distressed. He told Chu Feng that the material in his body had far exceeded his imagination and that he currently had no solution for it.

"Don't worry. I'll adapt to it slowly," Chu Feng replied.

He wasn't pessimistic because although he would be weakened when the black substance appeared, he could be able to recover and even grow stronger when the silver substance emerged.

He was gradually able to get the knack of it after arriving at Mount Kunlun.

Perhaps, this experience wasn't a bad thing and might become a fortune instead.

The black substance corroded his physical and spiritual power, but from another point of view, perhaps it was tempering and refining away the "impurities".

The silver substance would raise his strength while the black one would drag him to hell. He was fluctuating constantly between the peaks and troughs—this, in and of itself, was a type of tempering.

When the metallic Rubiks Cube from the outer realm fell, it ripped apart the mist and clouds in the sky to reveal the sun. But now, it was gloomy once again.

However, the great snowfall was visibly reduced and was now only showering small snowflakes. This was a silver lining amidst the misfortune. It was just that no one knew when they would see clear skies once again.

The constellation vines that had appeared on top of the various cities were still hanging from the sky with exuberant vitality, completely unafraid of the cold.

Furthermore, there was news during this period that some people who had climbed up those vines had obtained certain things like exotic fist technique manuals.

"There are outer realm inheritances in the space above the divine vines!"

It was uncertain when such a news began to circulate but it became worse and worse in the recent days.

Additionally, it was already confirmed that the news wasn't baseless. Some life forms had indeed obtained some odd arts. This caused a great commotion.

"What situation is this?!"

Chu Feng asked Yellow Ox, puzzled.

In truth, the various major powers were also astonished and somewhat restless.

"Disciples from certain realms are currently looking for methods to cross over. They're looking for representatives to work for them and would impart some arts in return!" Yellow Ox explained. That was his judgment.

"Won't this cause great chaos?" Chu Feng frowned.

Yellow Ox said, "This world is simply too enticing. When the ice and snow recede and the numerous famed mountains recover, numerous divine trees will appear, laden with fruit. Even fairies and divine children will covet them. Naturally, they have to reveal certain miracles and tricks so that some people would serve them."

Chu Feng was dissatisfied. With the current problems with his body, it would really be an unfortunate timing if the divine trees on famed mountains appear laden with fruit.

"Don't worry, everything is empty unless the masters can cross over. The representatives they find won't amount to anything." Yellow Ox was disdainful.

"Why don't I climb up there, pretend to be a representative and swindle a few inheritances?" Chu Feng laughed.

"Makes sense!" The black yak nodded beside him.

Yellow Ox said, "What good item can they offer? They certainly wouldn't leak the actual sect defining breathing techniques. Just ignore them. It's better we go to that ancient temple. If the Thunderous Breathing Technique really appears there, even an outer realm Bodhisattva level expert will be jealous of us!"

News came from the southern sea two days later.

This so-called Rubik's Cube really seems to be magical. It contains arts which allowed large snakes to become flood serpents and also many other marine race methods and inheritances. That place has become holy land on the ocean floor.

So far, the conflict outside of the sea eye had intensified. Every race wanted to approach the place and obtain a quota.

Yellow Ox's expression became serious after hearing of this news. "I think the metallic cube in the ocean is quite extraordinary. It should be more suitable to enter than the realms behind the constellation vines. They really might establish a marine sect and form a holy land on earth!"

"Is it really that fantastic? Do we need to join hands and snatch that metallic cube?!" A thieving gleam appeared in the black yak's eyes.

"Are you really that capable?" Yellow Ox shot him a sidelong glance.

Because according to Yellow Ox, certain demonic sages and golden Bodhisattvas had inevitably paid a great price in order for that metallic cube to reach this place through a crack deep in the starry skies.

"This place isn't an ordinary place. The ancestors of peerless orthodoxies had all undergone a bloodbath here countless ages ago," Yellow Ox said solemnly.

More news arrived from the southern sea on the third day and caused a huge commotion.

Words had formed on the metallic cube, suggesting that the founders of various sects establish a new order in the ocean and restore their ancient glory.

The flood dragon race, the marine human race, sea god tiger, merpeople, and yaksha… depictions of many major races appeared on the metallic cube.

"Impossible. Could the ancestors of these races have worked together to produce this metallic cube?" Yellow Ox was shocked.

Naturally, he hadn't gone to the ocean and as such wasn't clear of the details. So he couldn't make a proper judgment.

When the last piece of news came from the southern sea, all the continental life forms could no longer sit still.

Rumor has it that the metallic cube has become half transparent and within it was a female. She looks like a corpse yet also as if she was sleeping. She lay within the metallic cube without moving at all.

"It can't be…" Yellow Ox was astonished.

Finally, the group comprising Yellow Ox, the old llama, and the Mastiff King began to move. They were headed towards the Himalayas in order to search for fortunes.

Chu Feng stayed back. After much thought, everyone advised him not to take the risk.

"We should be back within half a month whether or not we're successful," said Yellow Ox.

Chu Feng originally planned to go along, but in the end, he decided not force himself. He was clear that his situation wasn't stable. It would be extremely dangerous if they encountered some unexpected situations.

The host of great demons from Kunlun all set out hurriedly as they felt pressured by the constellation vines and the metallic cube in the sea. The life forms of the outer region were growing impatient—they were trying various methods to gain the initiative, searching for representatives and hoping to borrow external power to contest for sacred trees on the famed mountains.

The host of great demons all set out in secret. They didn't want other people to know.

At this time, there were various rumors flying about in the outside world, for instance, that a powerful race had obtained a primordial bloodline opening technique from the metallic cube, etc.

There were also rumors stating that some outer realm life forms had folded space and would soon charge over.

During the following days, Chu Feng ignored the matters regarding the outside world. On one hand, he was studying the bizarre material within his body, and on the other, he was delving into the Domain Heavenly Book.

It could be said that studying this heavenly book at Kunlun was the most suitable and favored by nature. That was because this place originally possessed obvious domains that could release lightning. Back then Chu Feng and the Woodpecker King had entered this place and almost died.

At the same time, there were many domains in the mysterious and mist-enshrouded depths of Mount Kunlun.

At first, Chu Feng was only fumbling around but after several days, he began to neglect sleep and forget about food as he was completely absorbed in it.

He found that he was rather gifted in the study of domains and had unknowingly found out many methods.

"Brother Chu, you're simply too absorbed. You don't seem to have the slightest worry." The Snow Leopard King arrived. After seeing Chu Feng pondering in the depths of Mount Kunlun and caressing the towering cliffs, he didn't know what to say.

That was because 20 days had gone by in a flash. Yellow Ox, the old llama, and the others said they would be back within half a month but they hadn't returned until now.

"Ah, how long has it been?" Chu Feng was astonished after suddenly jolting away. There was dust all over his face and his clothes were ragged. He almost seemed to have entered a trance during this period of isolation and had forgotten everything else.

At this time, Chu Feng became worried. Yellow Ox, black yak, and the others hadn't returned. This wasn't very assuring.

For Kunlun, this was a terrible situation because there weren't many king level entities left at Kunlun since most of them had gone to the Himalayas.

If these people disappeared and were unable to return, how would they defend Kunlun? It would definitely be divided up and change owners.

What's worse was that marine race people arrived two days later to assault Mount Kunlun.

"What situation is this? The marine race wants to attack Mount Kunlun?" Chu Feng was astonished. He felt he had been too muddle-headed during the days that he had lost himself in studying the Domain Heavenly Book. He became isolated with the world.

"Yes, a group of people came. They seem to have found out that Kunlun was empty and that all the experts had left and disappeared within the Himalayas!" The Snow Leopard King sighed.

"What do we do?!" There weren't any experts among those left at Mount Kunlun. The group of minor demons was all panicking.

"How many marine race people have come?!" Chu Feng enquired.

"A large group of them!" The Snow Leopard King's expression was solemn.

"Let me see if I can deal with them!" Chu Feng replied.

The group of people on Mount Kunlun revealed odd expression. They felt somewhat helpless because they knew Chu Feng's body was problematic, and that he was no longer a peerless expert.

"You don't believe me? Carry me over there and I might be able to force myself to fight one last battle!" Chu Feng said.

Everyone was speechless. Could he really fight another battle? Hadn't he already fought two "final battles"?!

"Lift me up, let's go take a look!"
