Chapter 321: Interdependent Fortune and Calamity

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

The ice and snow had melted on Mount Kunlun. The old trees had begun to sprout and vitality was surging.

However, the hearts of the host of kings were clouded and all of them were in low spirits.

The group of people had become extremely weak after having the energy in their bodies cut away and their levels dropped.

This was a major incident—Kunlun would be definitely be eradicated if people found out about this. The dozens of king level entities had become ordinary birds and beasts. The effects were simply too great.

After returning to Kunlun, the old llama got in touch with the Golden-Winged Roc King, asking him to come return and hold the fort here. The latter was also born here at Kunlun and later left to become the sect master of Mount Hua.

"Our losses are too great." The Mastiff King laughed ruefully.

The whole world was evolving and every land was thriving. New king level entities were appearing in droves—only Mount Kunlun was covered in the mists of anxiety. Their top grade powers had all fallen.

The old black bear sighed as he contacted his grandson Xiong Kun, instructing him to stay low key in the outside world and not cause trouble.

The host of kings were feeling lost. In the past, Kunlun was able to gaze disdainfully at the world and overlook all heroes. However, right now, they could only hide cautiously within the mountain, licking their wounds and watching experts rise everywhere.

There were no windproof walls. Kunlun was simply too lowkey these days—the host of kings had withdrawn within the mountain after their return and never showed themselves.

The outside world was astonished. Had Mount Kunlun become weak?

"Reportedly, those great demons suffered greatly at the Himalayas. It's suspected that they'd lost their combat abilities. Kunlun might fall from now on!"

This news was simply too shocking. People could hardly believe this at first, but as time went on, many signs indicated that Kunlun had indeed encountered a major incident!

The whole world was suddenly shaken and everyone began to pay attention.

At this time, Chu Feng was frowning. The black and silver substances were transforming crazily after he came in contact with the stone-skinned scripture tube. In the end, they formed an equilibrium within his body. Both the black and silver substance existed within his body.

In the past, it was either pure black or pure silver. But now it was no longer the same.

At the same time, the energy within his body had been drained clean with absolutely nothing left. The most terrifying was that he had made no progress for several days. There was no way to recover like the great demons of Kunlun who were improving day by day.

Chu Feng's delight in obtaining the Thunderous Breathing Technique was greatly diluted. He was somewhat taciturn because his current situation was terrible.

Yellow Ox helped him diagnose the problem. The former's little face was extremely tense and his expression solemn. "This incident is simply too bizarre. I would have never expected something like this to happen."

"Look, the black substance and the silver substance are entangled with each other and flowing slowly like a rotating millstone."

Chu Feng was deeply astonished. It was just as Yellow Ox said—the black and silver substances were coexisting and they were indeed acting like a millstone. It was precisely because of this that his energy was being ground away.

The white and black millstones were crushing the energy in his body. There was no way to retain any.

"This might be a fortune!"

Yellow Ox was delighted after a moment of worrying. He told Chu Feng that this was a tempering refinement. It was extremely shocking to see such an item at this stage.

Chu Feng felt somewhat helpless. He would rather not have such a fortune—he was now crippled with no signs of improving at all.

"Come look inside my body," said Yellow Ox.

He was very cautious and went to check their surroundings before running back into Demon Ox Palace to show Chu Feng his secret.

There was a certain ineffable item within Yellow Ox's body. It was a medicinal mortar seemingly refined from brass, but it wasn't really it. It was mysteriously hidden within his body.

Outsiders would never find it if he hadn't revealed it himself.

"This is my fortune. However, I can't use it at the moment because I'm too young. Refining my bodily medicine now will damage my blood energy."

Yellow Ox revealed his secret and future support. According to him, it was another fortune had obtained together with the mysterious breathing technique.

"What is this thing?" Chu Feng was puzzled.

"This item was left behind by a great character. In the future, it would help me temper the energy in my body. It would wash my physical body, cleanse my bones and tendons, resulting in various advantages such as eliminating impurities, etc."

Yellow Ox told him that these items were left behind by Bodhisattva level powerhouses for their descendants. It would help them purify their bloodlines and temper the energy within their bodies, etc.

The yellowish pestle in the mortar was able to squeeze out the mottled impurities from energy and temper his bodily medicine.

"In the past, the best choice for you was to use pollen for evolution while I could eat mutant fruits without caring for future dangers. That is because I have this item in my body to help me purify them." Yellow Ox revealed his secret.

According to him, the glistening yellow mortar lay between energy and material states. It was quite bizarre—outsiders had no way to see through this item in his body if he wished to hide it.

"Only the holy sons of the orthodoxies from great realms would have such objects within their bodies. That was because sects with no Bodhisattva level experts couldn't leave such a fortune for their descendants."

Chu Feng was astonished. There was such a case?

Following which, Yellow Ox mentioned the black substance. In truth, it was also something used to temper the energy within one's body and simmer the great bloodline medicine, etc.

However, the black substance would normally require the user to reach a very high level because it was simply too tyrannical.

To creatures of a lower realm, it was a lethal poison, but for evolved beings at the level of a divine knight or golden arhat, it was a precious item to yearn for.

It was already a miracle that Chu Feng's physical body was no longer being corroded and had merely been returned to an ordinary human.

"That's why the changes in your body are very strange. The black substance changing into the silver substance is a rare occurrence since ancient times. There are very few examples and legends of it which only exist in the ten most powerful stars. The most critical part is that now the black and white substances have both appeared and are now able to coexist. Additionally, they've transformed into a millstone-like object. This is too bizarre." Yellow Ox sighed.

Chu Feng was lost in thought. The black substance and the fantastic objects left behind by Bodhisattva level experts for their descendants were the same. But the item within his body was a combination of two things.

"Will my strength ever return?" Finally, Chu Feng asked the most important question. Everything else was empty. The only important thing was to step back onto a king's path.

"I don't know either. The black and silver substances within your body are still transforming, looking more and more like millstones. You might recover after they fully materialize."

At the same time, Yellow Ox proposed another possibility.

"Various corruptions might occur if the object isn't perfect. At that time, you might really become an ordinary person."

This caused Chu Feng to frown. Becoming an ordinary person after evolving to the king level—there was a great disparity.

"How long until a confirmation?" Chu Feng asked.

"I think 10 days should be quite enough," replied Yellow Ox. He consoled Chu Feng that this might be a great fortune, providing him with an opportunity to become a sage ancestor in the future.

Two days later, the numerous kings of Kunlun decided to spread their forces. The Sword Palace of Mount Shu, Mount Kongtong, and Mount Hua became shelters for the great demons of Kunlun. They were afraid that Kunlun would be wiped out if they remained there. A single Golden Roc King wouldn't be able to protect all of them.

There were no airtight walls—the outside world had already guessed something had happened to the kings of Kunlun and that they had lost their combat power!

Danger would befall Kunlun anytime since the secret had been publicized.

The host of kings were very decisive. They split up there and then, heading towards various places.

The old grandmaster of Wudang arrived. He personally escorted Chu Feng away and guaranteed his safety. Yellow Ox went to the Sword Palace of Mount Shu since he wanted to study the Imperial Sword Technique. The black yak and the Manchurian Tiger followed him there.

"We won't go to Wudang because the ancient ritual ground there suppresses demons."

Chu Feng secretly passed on the Thunderous Breathing Technique to Yellow Ox before his departure and told him to teach the black yak at a suitable time.

The great demons of Kunlun totally dispersed in a single morning, shaking the world.

Everyone was inquiring about this matter, but in the end, they found out that the demon kings of Kunlun had fallen in level and Chu Feng was also crippled at the ancient temple in the Himalayas. The world was boiling over at this news.

Some people sighed. They felt it was too sudden and unfortunate.

Many people felt regretful because Kunlun was an important power of the East. Would their decline cause the marine race to become unrestrained and show aggression once again?

"How can this be? The illustrious kings of Kunlun who beat back the Eastern Punitive Expedition have dispersed overnight, scattering far and wide. What a pity!"

"How is Chu Feng?"

"Reportedly, he's in an even worse situation than the others!"

Of course, there were also people laughing delightedly at such a development.

The experts who had risen recently and the new experts with six severed shackles wouldn't feel sorry for the fall of these old kings. They would be able to take this opportunity to rise even higher.

"The new replaces the old. It's a rule that governs myriad living things. The declined will die in the natural selection as the strong ultimately rise."

A new top-grade expert thus said implicatively. Who wouldn't understand his obvious attitude?

"How regretful. I wanted to climb Kunlun and compare notes with Chu Feng," said a certain rising human youth. His technique of choice was the Baji Fist.

The new rising top grade experts were in high spirits. They felt that they could improve even more because the energy on every famed mountain was becoming denser by the day. They might perhaps be able to sever their seventh shackle when those divine trees burst into bloom.

Additionally, the bewildering mists were beginning to disperse over new areas on the famed mountains. They would soon come into being.

Obviously, higher level experts would soon emerge once people could charge into these areas.

The marine race naturally became restless. Large batches of them came ashore and began to move on the continent. However, they didn't start a massacre in accordance with the oracle's will.

The various corporations saw an explosive increase in strength. This was a rare opportunity for them. They'd been waiting in silence for the divine trees to burst into bloom.

"Heh, heh, Chu Feng is finally silent. I really hope he can pass his final years in peace."

A certain corporate agent said these words. Although he seemed to be expressing his opinion, this actually stated the attitude of many corporations.

Chu Feng was still young but they said he should pass his final years in peace. This was a type of ridicule.

After all was said and done, no one dared to make rash moves. After all, they couldn't confirm whether Chu Feng could still engage in a so-called "final battle".

Just a while ago, the marine race was tricked into a miserable outcome.

However, many powers had a premonition that this time, Chu Feng had really encountered trouble. They believed he was no longer lying and pretending.

During this period, a continuous stream of people came to Mount Wudang to call upon Chu Feng. They were all quite amiable and no one dared to act rashly.

Time went by quickly and ten days had passed before long. The most critical time for Chu Feng had finally arrived.
