"Brother Chu, please tell me if there's a way to enter?!" Li Canghe grasped Chu Feng's shoulders and shook them with great strength. He was so excited that even his fingers were trembling.
The results would be simply unimaginable if such an imperial court of evolved beings were to come into being. It far surpassed all the sects on their mother stars and could allow a planet to directly cross over to a higher realm.
That was because the knowledge from these evolved civilizations would allow them to avoid many winding roads!
"Senior, my bones are about to break," Chu Feng said with a frown.
"Forgive me. I forgot that you've fallen below king level. But, don't worry. As long as you lead us inside, we'll definitely repay you and help you find a way to recover."
Li Canghe thus promised. This inheritance was greater than the star from which he had come. If he could obtain it, he would undoubtedly become the ancestor of a sect.
At this time, his eyes were aflame. It wasn't just excitement but also ambition. Why must he serve someone else?
His current identity was merely that of a servant and not an actual descended being. He wanted to surpass his current status and become the master of the Origin Magnetic Immortal Cave!
"Let me see if there's a suitable path and if we can safely approach the energy pagoda," said Chu Feng.
"Great! If we can successfully assault this place, I'll be your escort in the future and allow you to become a most respected guest of the descended beings," Li Canghe promised.
Chu Feng felt indifferent in his heart. This kind of promise was meaningless and cheap. He hadn't forgotten the old man's actions when the toad ate the purple apple just now.
At that time, there was a certain coldness in the bottom of Li Canghe's eyes. If even a single mutant fruit could upset him, then there was no longer a need to discuss the more valuable things.
If he really obtained this inheritance, this seemingly kind Li Canghe might be the first to silence him.
However, Chu Feng was still smiling on the outside and didn't reveal his thoughts.
"Chu Feng, I'll give you a delightful surprise if you can break this domain." Princess Lin's smile was extremely charming. She whispered beside Chu Feng's ear, her breath comparable to an orchid.
"I'm afraid it'll be a shocking surprise instead," replied Chu Feng.
Zhou Yun smiled and said, "If you can dig open the energy pagoda here and prove yourself a genius in the field of domains, our Princess Lin might really devote her life to you."
If was obvious that Zhou Yun treated Chu Feng quite well and would help him speak from time to time. She was looking forward to Chu Feng and Princess Lin forming a good relationship.
Although she felt that the possibility of the two coming together wasn't that great, it wasn't so bad to become friends either.
Chu Feng glanced sideways at the princess.
Her clothes were fluttering in the wind, making her perfect curves even more evident. Even her hair was lustrous and glowing, as was her delicate jade-like skin. She was quite alluring when she smiled.
Princess Lin was natural and unrestrained. Her fair countenance was still smiling as she met his gaze with her charming eyes. Although she felt that it was impossible for her to be with Chu Feng, she didn't refute Zhou Yun's words immediately.
"How would I tell my family if I were to marry an extraterrestrial? My parents will be shocked. That's not too appropriate," said Chu Feng.
Some people looked over with cold eyes as if they wanted to say, "Do you really think you can climb that high?"
This was especially true for the descender scions. Disdain flashed through their eyes. They understood that Chu Feng's talents with domains were extraordinary, but he wasn't quite at the level of a great master yet. They felt that he was still quite far from being able to stay on equal footing with evolved beings of heavenly talent.
The unconcerned Chu Feng, however, began to study the local geography.
The ruins were quite large and there were bronze roof tiles everywhere. Even though it was a dilapidated land, there were broken metallic walls everywhere. The place was obviously quite majestic. It went to show just how glorious and thriving this place was in the past.
Chu Feng investigated several times and, once again, called for people to probe the road ahead. Li Canghe and the old woman agreed without hesitation and ordered the corporate people to probe the road ahead with their lives.
In the end, fifty men were wiped out and died within the mist. They were killed by the brilliant patterns on the ground.
The higher-ups from the corporations were greatly frustrated and their hearts were dripping blood. They secretly hated Li Canghe for his cold-bloodedness. They were totally being used as cannon fodder.
At the same time, everyone present felt disappointed and anxious. All fifty paths had led to dead ends. Could it be that this place was a land of death that couldn't be entered?
"I'll go in myself and slowly play it by ear. I can't sacrifice more people," said Chu Feng.
"That won't do. It's too dangerous. We won't feel easy if something happens to you. You must take care of yourself," Li Canghe objected.
Of course, the man wasn't truly caring about Chu Feng but was instead afraid that there would be no one else capable of breaking domains after his death.
"I am 50% confident that I can enter. There won't be any more hope if we go back just like this," said Chu Feng.
He had already found the path and was over 80% confident that he could enter. He had found that new path just now.
Even if it resulted in failure, he had methods to safely retreat.
Although his chances were good, he wouldn't tell them everything because he didn't want these people to follow him. He wanted to go and explore alone.
Everyone was moved. A 50% certainty was worth taking a risk for. The benefits would be huge if he succeeded!
Everyone inwardly agreed in the blink of an eye. They wished for him to take the risk and open the road!
That was because they felt a sense of urgency. At the moment, the earth was constantly recovering and the outer realm beings were rushing over. A large batch of divine sons and saintesses might descend at any moment.
If they couldn't grasp this opportunity, the competition, later on, would be even more intense. Many people would find it hard to make progress.
An early step would put one in the lead every step of the way. The most important was to occupy the lead!
"Brother Chu Feng, you must be careful. Although breaking the domain is important, but it's greatly inferior compared to your own life. You have to put your own safety above all else!" said Li Canghe.
Chu Feng said compassionately, "Elder brother, please rest assured. I'll exhaust every method at my disposal to help everyone hack open a safe path."
He kicked the toad and made it come along. It could help at the critical moment.
The toad was completely unwilling. It glanced sideways at Chu Feng and almost revolted. In the end, it agreed to go along when Chu Feng patted its shoulder without saying anything.
That was because it suddenly remembered that someone as shameless as Chu Feng wouldn't risk his life this way and was probably looking to grab fortunes. It had to go along.
It became quite impassioned, stating that it had thought things through and that it would follow and protect Chu Feng even to his death.
"Go!" Chu Feng gave it a kick.
"Croak!"
They gradually disappeared into the mist and began to approach the energy pagoda.
Before long, the area became completely covered in rolling mist. They saw an ethereal pagoda before, but now they couldn't see anything.
Additionally, the white mist had turned into a greyish brown color. It was bizarre and unsettling.
In the end, the mist turned as black as ink. It would be hard to see one's fingers after extending the hand. The area had become completely isolated.
"Brother Chu Feng!" someone shouted.
However, everything before them was quiet. No one replied.
Everyone glanced at each other. They felt a sense of foreboding because the area had become an isolated space. They could no longer sense anything inside.
Could it be that Chu Feng had died inside? Were the ancient domains activated to form a forbidden land?
"Chu Feng!" Some people began to call out.
Lin Naoi walked forward and began to observe in detail. She then called out gently but still there was no reply.
"Damn, he probably failed and paid with his life," some people concluded.
Feng Hong complained, "He seems to have overestimated his own abilities too much. How could one charge recklessly into such a place? He shouldn't do such things if he's not confident."
Many people wore ugly expressions because Chu Feng was the only person proficient in the field of domains. If he died in there, their future paths would come to an end.
"Ah, how comfortable. The energy in here so so dense."
The toad's mood, on the other hand, was completely opposite that of the other people. It opened its eyes wide and gazed fixedly at the energy pagoda in front.
In truth, Chu Feng had already brought the toad inside successfully. However, the area began to transform the moment he stepped inside. Some of the special domains were activated.
That was why dense mist began to rise and the area was isolated from the outside.
Originally, Chu Feng wanted to put down a domain of his own to isolate everyone's perception, but now, it seemed unnecessary.
The place was filled with rubble and the metallic buildings had melted in some places. After cooling down, they formed many irregular lumps.
There was a four-storeyed pagoda at its center. It was very faint and stood 12 meters tall above the rubble. Strands of silvery white energy were pouring off of it.
According to Li Canghe, this was the inheritance tower! The imperial court was destroyed back in the year after it was attacked by invaders. This land became a ruin, but they had left a way out. This energy tower was formed after the passage of many years in order to pass on their legacy.
This was a method that belonged to a top-grade sect!
Li Canghe revealed that this energy tower contained vast amounts of information. One would be able to obtain various books and volumes belonging to this orthodoxy after entering.
"Eh?!"
Chu Feng noticed a certain object within the tower. It was a silver box.
The box hovering in the space within the tower wasn't very big. It was quite odd because Li Canghe had told them that the inheritance was recorded within the energy. There shouldn't be any objects left behind.
But there was definitely a silver box in the tower before him. This went against logic.
Chu Feng made a judgment immediately. This silver box was likely more important than the main inheritance of this imperial court!
It was placed within the heart of this pagoda because it was more valuable.
"What could be inside?" Chu Feng stared at the box, and at the same time, began to walk around the energy pagoda. Ther were broken domains here but no immediate danger.
That was because this area was one of the most important targets of enemy attack. Everything here was destroyed. Currently, the domains here were far less perilous than the ones outside.
Even the damaged domain runes could form some isolation. They were like walls but one could easily jump over them.
"So fragrant. There are mutant fruits here!" the toad suddenly cried out while opening and closing its nostrils. It was quite excited.
Chu Feng noticed it after walking through a patch of rubble and arriving on the other side of the pagoda. He sensed a deeply penetrating fragrance.
Very soon, they saw two little trees rooted behind a metallic wall, each of them bearing several fruits. They happened to be in their most fragrant state. It seemed they had long since matured.
Fortunately, they were mutant fruits. Although they were fully ripe, they didn't fall to the ground and were still growing on the tree.
Among them, the fruits on a certain jade green tree were completely golden and only the size of a longan. They were glowing resplendently like golden pills and flowing with prismatic lights, their fragrance, intense and lingering.
The other silvery white tree carried a number of bright red fruits, each as large as a fist. They looked like legendary cinnabar fruits, but they were too big.
One tree with five fruits and the other with four. They could be considered quite the high yield!
Chu Feng revealed a smile and immediately picked a fruit resembling a lustrous golden pill and popped it into his mouth. Golden light immediately erupted and illuminated his whole body.
His pores began to relax. It was simply too comfortable. This longan immediately melted and transformed into a warm flow which rushed towards his bones and limbs accompanied by intense fragrance.
Chu Feng's sixth shackle was instantly severed. Unlike before, he didn't even spend any energy. It could be said that progress came easily as the time was ripe.
In truth, he could have broken through since eating the golden fruit back in the tomb of the divine khan. It was just that, he didn't dare to act to vigorously for fear of disturbing the balance in his internal environment and hence causing the grinding stone's evolution to be imperfect.
Now, he had evolved calmly without any intense activity. That was because he had simply accumulated too much, and his body automatically started to evolve after eating another fruit today.
"The sixth shackle! I didn't even get to choose the region. It actually severed on the spot," Chu Feng mumbled with an odd expression. At this moment, he felt incomparably powerful.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Brother Chu, please tell me if there's a way to enter?!" Li Canghe grasped Chu Feng's shoulders and shook them with great strength. He was so excited that even his fingers were trembling.
The results would be simply unimaginable if such an imperial court of evolved beings were to come into being. It far surpassed all the sects on their mother stars and could allow a planet to directly cross over to a higher realm.
That was because the knowledge from these evolved civilizations would allow them to avoid many winding roads!

The energy in here so so dense."The toad's mood, on the other hand, was completely opposite that of the other people. It opened its eyes wide and gazed fixedly at the energy pagoda in front.In truth, Chu Feng had already brought the toad inside successfully. However, the area began to transform the moment he stepped inside. Some of the special domains were activated.That was why dense mist began to rise and the area was isolated from the outside.Originally, Chu Feng wanted to put down a domain of his own to isolate everyone's perception, but now, it seemed unnecessary.The place was filled with rubble and the metallic buildings had melted in some places. After cooling down, they formed many irregular lumps.There was a four-storeyed pagoda at its center. It was very faint and stood 12 meters tall above the rubble. Strands of silvery white energy were pouring off of it.According to Li Canghe, this was the inheritance tower! The imperial court was destroyed back in the year after it was attacked by invaders. This land became a ruin, but they had left a way out. This energy tower was formed after the passage of many years in order to pass on their legacy.This was a method that belonged to a top-grade sect!Li Canghe revealed that this energy tower contained vast amounts of information. One would be able to obtain various books and volumes belonging to this orthodoxy after entering."Eh?!"Chu Feng noticed a certain object within the tower. It was a silver box.The box hovering in the space within the tower wasn't very big. It was quite odd because Li Canghe had told them that the inheritance was recorded within the energy. There shouldn't be any objects left behind.But there was definitely a silver box in the tower before him. This went against logic.Chu Feng made a judgment immediately. This silver box was likely more important than the main inheritance of this imperial court!It was placed within the heart of this pagoda because it was more valuable."What could be inside?" Chu Feng stared at the box, and at the same time, began to walk around the energy pagoda. Ther were broken domains here but no immediate danger.That was because this area was one of the most important targets of enemy attack. Everything here was destroyed. Currently, the domains here were far less perilous than the ones outside.Even the damaged domain runes could form some isolation. They were like walls but one could easily jump over them."So fragrant. There are mutant fruits here!" the toad suddenly cried out while opening and closing its nostrils. It was quite excited.Chu Feng noticed it after walking through a patch of rubble and arriving on the other side of the pagoda. He sensed a deeply penetrating fragrance.Very soon, they saw two little trees rooted behind a metallic wall, each of them bearing several fruits. They happened to be in their most fragrant state. It seemed they had long since matured.Fortunately, they were mutant fruits. Although they were fully ripe, they didn't fall to the ground and were still growing on the tree. Among them, the fruits on a certain jade green tree were completely golden and only the size of a longan. They were glowing resplendently like golden pills and flowing with prismatic lights, their fragrance, intense and lingering. The other silvery white tree carried a number of bright red fruits, each as large as a fist. They looked like legendary cinnabar fruits, but they were too big.One tree with five fruits and the other with four. They could be considered quite the high yield!Chu Feng revealed a smile and immediately picked a fruit resembling a lustrous golden pill and popped it into his mouth. Golden light immediately erupted and illuminated his whole body.His pores began to relax. It was simply too comfortable. This longan immediately melted and transformed into a warm flow which rushed towards his bones and limbs accompanied by intense fragrance.Chu Feng's sixth shackle was instantly severed. Unlike before, he didn't even spend any energy. It could be said that progress came easily as the time was ripe.In truth, he could have broken through since eating the golden fruit back in the tomb of the divine khan. It was just that, he didn't dare to act to vigorously for fear of disturbing the balance in his internal environment and hence causing the grinding stone's evolution to be imperfect.Now, he had evolved calmly without any intense activity. That was because he had simply accumulated too much, and his body automatically started to evolve after eating another fruit today."The sixth shackle! I didn't even get to choose the region. It actually severed on the spot," Chu Feng mumbled with an odd expression. At this moment, he felt incomparably powerful.
