Chapter 759: The Phoenix’s Fortune

Translator: Alsey  Editor: Chrissy

The inside of the unfathomable ancient cave was very large. Stone eggs that were as big as fists to the size of a human head and to the size of a lower millstone were in abundance and there were various kinds of eggs too.

Chu Feng looked every single one of them over and circulated his Phoenix breathing technique in hopes that he could resonate with that kind of emotion. There was a faint passion burning in his heart. Could a phoenix egg be here?

If this was true, the value of it was enough to make one go insane. Not only was it a divine bird, but it was also one of the best living beings. If it really were to grow and mature, who would dare to say that they could suppress it?

Other than that, the breathing technique it inherited in its blood was absolutely priceless.

At the very least, Chu Feng wanted it very much.

“Hehe, little sister, you’re rather cute. So many years have passed and these eggs have even turned to stone due to time, the curse inflicted on them and the volcano. Do you still want to search for one that has life in it? Don’t waste your energy.”

An elegant young noble prince smile as he waved his folding fan while he struck up a conversation with Chu Feng.

Veins appeared on Chu Feng’s forehead. He really wanted to launch a spirit attack on him!

He couldn’t be bothered to take notice of the other party. He disregarded the other party’s very existence and continued searching for that kind of fluctuations because he really wanted to find that egg.

A few people entered the cave in turn. They were flabbergasted, but that soon turned into a sneer appearing on their faces. However, they didn’t mock him once they saw his outstandingly delicate appearance because they had no way of occupying certain dominance over a beautiful person.

Ninety percent of them mistook him for a naive girl; some evolvers even enthusiastically went up to help him. They were making it too obvious that they were courting his favour.

After he revealed a wisp of his terrifying aura, the few remaining people disappeared and only Chu Feng was left searching here alone. It was rather peaceful.

“F**k your grandfather. If you dare to aggravate me even more than this, I’ll sell all of you!” Chu Feng ground his teeth and started kicking the eggs one after the other. He had no choice but to do so because there were far too many stone eggs and he couldn’t find the one he was looking for.

That fluctuation was extremely strange. He would be getting closer to or further away from the fluctuation from time to time, so he couldn’t pinpoint its location in the end.

“Little birdy, I’m your father. Come out.” Chu Feng transmitted his voice with his spiritual energy and it reverberated in the cave.

But it was like throwing a stone and seeing it sink without a trace in the sea. There was no response at all. His old face turned completely red because he had the nagging feeling that he was like a suspicious uncle deceiving children.

Bang!

Chu Feng circulated the Phoenix breathing technique to the maximum. His whole body was covered in light blames and he enveloped the stone eggs in his vicinity, almost burning them to a crisp.

“If it’s a phoenix egg, it’s only right for it not to be afraid of fire.”

Stone eggs cracked from being burnt on the ground. Many of them even turned to lava because the Phoenix breathing technique was too impressive. The temperature overflowing from Chu Feng was terrifying.

In the end, lava flowed through the whole ancient cave. All of the stone eggs had melted, but even then, he didn’t see anything resembling a special divne egg.

Chu Feng was very disappointed as he aimlessly set things on fire over here. Even the air he exhaled were raging flames and he practically resembled a fire-breathing dragon in human form!

He opened up this ancient cave numerous times. The stone walls melted and flowed out of the entrance to the cave before it came together to form a lava waterfall that hit the ground.

“Hmm?!”

Chu Feng suddenly heard the sound of something coming in contact with water. The flames from the circulation of his Phoenix Race breathing technique burnt off a large chunk of the stone wall. Something fell from it and splashed into an area of lava.

Previously, the stone wall would melt immediately and nothing would fall out.

Whoosh! Chu Feng got close in a flash with the World’s End Near at Hand. The lava shook apart when he waved his fist and he saw an ashy egg in a glance.

It was boring and grey and was as big as a grown man’s fist. It had a stone hull and had turned into stone an unknown number of years ago.

There were a few cracks on the eggshell as well. It occupied half of the egg’s surface and it was considerably severe.

Chu Feng sighed. How could an egg that turned to stone still be incubated? It even had cracks! But it was rather strange that this egg didn’t fear flames and didn’t melt.

He circulated the Phoenix breathing technique again and he emitted a large field of flames that enveloped this egg.

“Hmm?!” Chu Feng was surprised. Half of the flames sank into the egg and it disappeared without good cause. The egg even absorbed the Yang qi created from him circulating his breathing technique.

He stuck his palm on the surface and cautiously comprehended it. Finally, he felt that indistinct wisp of fluctuation once more and knew it came from this egg.

It only responded when he used his Phoenix breathing technique. If not, there wasn’t any effect.

Chu Feng’s heart trembled; he was extremely excited. Could this be a divine egg? He decisively stored it away because this place wasn’t suitable for him to do his research!

Moreover, he came here in search of the Nine-Leaf Nirvana Grass because he wanted to increase his mental strength.

Chu Feng ducked and entered the depths of the complicated cave. The roads here were like spiderwebs; many passages were connected and people had gotten lost within it before.

Rumble!

Lava surged and a heat wave violently assaulted the insides of the cave. A wide expanse of lava flowed backwards and smacked onto Chu Feng. But when he was at this realm, it had no effect on him whatsoever so he passed through it.

He headed down a spiral-shaped tunnel because the legendary Phoenix nest was beneath the volcano and only the exit was before his eyes.

As expected, the temperature rose the deeper he went, but these roads were even sturdier and were gradually unwrecked and had roaming orthodoxy marks.

Chu Feng finally reached the depths of the underground region. It wasn’t dark in the slightest because flames were jumping about and illuminating this place.

He was a little shocked. There was actually a vast body of lava resembling the ocean underground. He couldn’t see where it ended when he looked across the body of lava and there were a few islands on the lava sea. At this moment, many evolvers were flying over the lava sea and searching the area.

Chu Feng put his armour on and covered his whole body. Naturally, they had all been sacrificially refined once more. If not, the armour and weapons on him were illegal goods that couldn’t see the light because he had peeled them off the bodies of saints.

Even his head and face were covered for him to avoid unintended trouble. Since he had mastered the Phoenix breathing technique, he had a huge advantage here and might even harvest quite a number of items.

He emitted flames in a flash and divine flames leaped about around his body. He crossed the lava sea and released his powerful mental energy as he searched all around him.

“Hmm?!”

He reacted to something not too long ago and was taken aback. This Phoenix Race breathing technique was surely advantageous here because it resonated with the whole lava sea.

This was undoubtedly where the Phoenixes had inhabited in the past because it left behind order and rules which made Chu Feng feel as though he was like a fish back in water. The scope at which he could probe about with his spiritual strength dramatically increased.

Chu Feng was elated. He had heard that shady boss’s presentation before he came. He said that this place was very unpleasant to all evolvers. Even though it was too dangerous, but once one used their spiritual energy to probe around, the lava would rapidly swallow a portion of it very easily.

But he was not amongst them because possessing the Phoenix breathing technique made him immune to such things!

Chu Feng was convinced that there was some kind of spirit medicine up ahead. He had captured the wisps of vitality it was emitting in advance.

Whoosh! Chu Feng flew over and passed a few islands. He ascended fifteen kilometres before diving into the fiery red lava.

A few evolvers who were scattered nearby were very sensitive and people immediately crowded around.

Chu Feng descended more than five kilometres in a single breath as he rapidly dove deeper nimbly and quickly like a fish swimming in the sea. He opened his Fiery Eyes in the liquid that was of high temperature and saw a plant.

Were it not for the fact that the Phoenix breathing technique could resonate with this area and that the Fiery Eyes could break through the fabrication, he wouldn’t have been able to detect this spirit medicine at all,

It was a vine that was completely red like blood. Wisps of flames emerged from it and brilliantly pushed the lava around it away as it burned brightly like a bright light.

As he got close, he could smell a faint fragrance even in the lava.

Chu Feng was amazed. This was surely a great medicine and it was actually so magical!

To say that it was a vine, but in actuality, it was less than a meter long. It was very delicate and its leaves were extremely unique — they resembled a phoenix spreading its wings. This was undoubtedly the Blood Phoenix Vine!

Chu Feng rapidly swam over and entered the light ball it had opened up. A heavy fragrance assailed his nose and all he saw was red.

Its roots were less that a third of a metre long and it was growing by absorbing the energy in the lava.

Chu Feng grabbed it and was incomparably happy. This was a great medicine and was exceptionally rare. It could be counted as being invaluable on the market because this was a medicinal herb that grew by relying on the absorption of the Phoenixes aura.

One was unlikely to exchange a Blood Phoenix Vine even if they used ten drops of Deity Elixir on the black market.

That was because the medicinal properties of this item was very powerful. It could activate the blood activity of a living being and awaken a few ordinary ferocious beasts for them to obtain their ancestors’ inheritance so that they could occasionally go back to them and obtain a portion of the divine beast bloodline.

If a normal person ingested it, they could temper their body and strengthen their physique.

Someone assessed that this was one of the rarest medicinal herbs to an evolver at the visualisation realm.

Chu Feng could ust it now, but not for too long. This would be of great use to him once he broke through. It could help him visualise and nurse his powerful body.

But even if he was very discrete and wanted to avoid trouble, someone had his eye on him. What’s more, the incoming people weren’t weak. They chased after him as they followed the fluctuations of the high-temperature liquid that was left behind in his body.

Boom!

Lava sprayed everywhere and a glaring light punched Ouyang from behind to the right as he wanted to mount a sneak attack on him.

Bang!

Chu Feng turned around and faced the punch with a punch of his own. It was actually the Vairocana Fist. This was specially prepared because of Wu Lunhui’s identity.He temporarily couldn’t use the Lightning Fist anymore.

The waves overflowed in a flash and lava wrecked havoc.

The ones who came flew back with a bang and they realised that their arms were shacking to the point where they were going numb. A look of astonishment appeared on their faces. This was an expert at the visualisation realm who almost had Chu Feng tear his arm off with his Fist Imprint.

He let out a long whistle as he summoned his assistants like a malicious spirit howling.

Chu Feng frowned and stared at him. This ferocious-looking evolver with dishevelled hair really did look like a demon and the words Corpse Race immediately came to his mind.

A number of people flew together in just a split second — they were Ying Wudi, Yuan Shicheng, Immortal Silkworm Prince as well as a pale young man without the colour of blood in him.

“There’s a medicinal scent on him. He might have plucked a great medicine.” The expert from the Corpse Race who attacked just now reported to the pale young man.

“Oh, friend, if you plucked any spirit medicine, you might as well sell it to me. I definitely won’t let you get the short end of the stick,” said the pale young man from the Corpse Race with a slight smile that appeared to be slightly shady. He introduced himself as Yan Luo.

He was the number one young expert from the Corpse Race and his status was on par with that of Yang Wudi’s in the Quasi-sage Race.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t pluck any spirit medicine, and even if I did, I wouldn’t sell it,” was Chu Feng’s reply.

“Is that so? Dao friend, it’s not that peaceful here. If you don’t sell the great medicines you plucked in time, you might be attracting trouble to yourself,” said Yan Luo with a slight smile.

After that, a formless aura coming from him filled the air and oppressed Chu Feng.

Bang!

Chu Feng didn’t mind it in the slightest and he didn’t cower because of that. He circulated his Phoenix breathing technique and intense energy surged as a great lava wave that was thousands of meters high burst forth between him and the number one young powerhouse Yan Luo in a flash.

Everyone’s countenance changed. Yuan Shicheng and Ying Wudi were amazed because an unknown evolver covered in armour from head to toe could actually stand off against Yan Luo.

“Beg my pardon. You’re actually an ultimate powerhouse from my generation. I have to recognise that you have the right to compete with me and the rest here.” Yan Luo was rather straightforward to as he immediately withdrew.

He could sense how terrifying the person in front of him was. If he wanted to take him down, he would most likely have to go through a lot of trouble. Dameng Pure Land’s distinguished meeting was about to begin, so he didn’t want to fight someone to the death before then. He had to preserve himself at peak condition at all times and truly go all out in Dameng Pure Land!

“It’s nice to meet you,” replied Chu Feng.

At this level, their divine senses were extremely sharp. Yuan Shicheng and Immortal Silkworm Prince could sense how dangerous Chu Feng was and they went on their own way.

Whoosh! Chu Feng went far off into the distance and crossed the lava sea as he searched this area.

He couldn’t help but gasp in surprise. This place really was too vast.; he actually hadn’t reached the end after crossing over ten thousand meters.

Chu Feng believed this to be a secret realm.

A few islands adorned the fiery red sea in fragments. Not even a blade of grass grew on them and volcanic craters were emitting thick smoke. This was a very terrifying scene.

He travelled alone for three days in a row and used his Phoenix breathing technique to resonate with this area in search of a fortune.

In the end, he sensed something at the end of the third day. He jumped back in the sea and rapidly swam down where he saw a blade of grass shining tens of metres deep into the sea. Light was flowing and it was overflowing with colour that was not only bright and multi-coloured, but dazzling too.

Upon closer inspection, it had nine leaves and it was emitting a fragrant order that made Chu Feng’s soul tremble.

“Nine-Leaf Nirvana Grass!” Chu Feng was overjoyed. To his surprise, such an item really did exist! To many people, this was a divine medicine that could dramatically double their mental strength!

But it was really difficult to find this item. If it hadn’t collided with the surface of the lava sea, it was practically equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack in such a vast region.

Moreover, such a divine item would wilt on its own if it wasn’t plucked at each interval in time.

Chu Feng rejoiced. Thankfully, he had mastered the Phoenix breathing technique. If not, this item would melt in such a vile environment and even saints were unlikely to find it even if they came here.

After all, this fiery sea swallowed a person’s mental strength, and saints were no exceptions either. It was only not that effective on Chu Feng.

He kept the Nine-Leaf Nirvana Grass in the jade box with a pop and sealed it up before he charged out of the surface of the sea with a splash.

Over the next two days, he gathered whatever he could here until there was nothing left for him to harvest.

Chu Feng felt as though he ought to leave; he couldn’t tarry for too long.

Many people were leaving too when he emerged from underground and walked out through the grand volcanic cave. That was because they were concerned about the distinguished meeting at Dameng Pure Land and were thinking of rushing back a little earlier.

“Everyone, please come here. Those who harvested something, hand over a great medicine whereas those who hadn’t harvested anything are to give a few spirit items. You have to know that our prince had done you guys a great favour here.”

Someone was blocking the way and was actually collecting a protection fee!

The evolvers who had just emerged immediately didn’t accept this. On what basis did they have to be so tyrannical? This was a land with no master and such a thing had never happened before.

But someone noticed that blood was dripping from the corners of the lips of many of the evolvers who came out before. It was obvious they had been wounded which made everyone tremble in fear.

“Do you guys know that this is the Phoenix’s nest? Fires frequently erupt here and the one from before was especially dangerous. This whole ancient land was about to explode, but my prince was the one who helped you guys suppress the eruption which is why you guys didn’t end up in a terrible tragedy,” said a youth who looked like a retainer. He wore a slight smile on his face as he looked down at everyone. A prince dressed in white was sitting on a rattan chair behind him with his eyes closed.

“Who is this? They’re too overbearing, aren’t they?!” someone was unconvinced.

“Silence! They’re from the Deity Palace!” someone whispered.

Someone immediately curled their lips and said, “Tsk, the Deity Race got beat yet they’re still so overbearing. If they have the balls to do so, they should go to Earth and find Demon King Chu. Why are they flaunting their might at us for?!”

“Attention, it’s the Deity Palace. They’re from the primal chaos. They’re not the Deity Race!” someone beside him pointed out as he was sweating cold sweat. His whole body was covered in blood because he was seriously damaged from before.

“Earth? We’ll go hunting there soon. I’ll slap you since you dare to profane the Deity Palace,” said the maid who was currently massaging the shoulders of that prince dressed in white.

After that, that young male retainer abruptly made his move as he drew close with a slap. That evolver who ridiculed the Deity Race with a very straightforward tone a moment ago actually couldn’t dodge the attack and was slapped across the face. He immediately let out a blood-curdling shriek because the lower half of his face decomposed and his lower jaw exploded.

Such tactics were too ruthless. Everyone’s expression changed!

“Who do those evolvers on Earth think they are? They should just wait to be annihilated,” coldly said the youth who attacked just now.

Chu Feng’s gaze turned cold and his heart couldn’t remain tranquil. Someone from the Deity Palace in the primal chaos actually came to this universe? They had genuine deities overseeing their race.
