Chapter 1167: First Beauty

Lao Gu was furious; this was an outrageous waste. Why did he need so much?

He gritted his teeth and said, "You are desecrating the Bloodline Fruit! You might as well just kill yourself to atone!"

This time, Chu Feng felt like hitting him. How could he speak that way?

Of course, he had already anticipated the Bloodline Fruit's astonishing value. His nonchalance was merely a tactic to provoke Lao Gu and ascertain the fruit's true worth.

Among divine medicines, Celestial Venerable Grass, and Great Power Fruits, the Bloodline Fruit was exceptionally unique, truly capable of defying fate and altering destiny.

As long as a bloodline contained genetic fragments of an ancient, supreme being, consuming the Bloodline Fruit would fully activate those genes, leading to a profound transformation.

Ultimately, it could cause an astonishing transformation in a creature's lineage, turning them into—an Aberrant Clan member!

Aberrant Clan members were extremely rare; very few could be found in the Yang Realm, with ninety percent having degenerated. Not all of the supreme races from ancient times could maintain their bloodline purity after surviving into this era.

Even the most powerful races and glorious dynasties had their day of decline and would eventually fade into the annals of time.

The Bloodline Fruit, however, could offer these declining clans a chance to defy fate and alter their destiny, rekindling the glory they once displayed when contending for supremacy in the Yang Realm!

In a sense, the Bloodline Fruit could resurrect their past glory!

To put it more bluntly, it could allow some incredibly terrifying prehistoric races to rise from the ashes.

Some families that vanished in time were truly too powerful. They once made the entire Yang Realm tremble, and even dared to invade the supreme forbidden zones of the Yang Realm!

What kind of glory was that?

There were immortal dynasties that lost their lineage and perished in history. What would happen if their ancestral bloodline were to be recreated?

Most crucially, some decaying families still had half-dead Celestial Venerables overseeing them, and even Great Powers from prehistoric times barely clinging to life.

If they were given a Bloodline Fruit, they would expend the entire clan's resources to cultivate a successor comparable to their progenitor, which would absolutely turn the tide, reverse their decline, and lead to a powerful resurgence.

"Such clans do exist, but they've disappeared," Lao Gu sighed, recounting some old tales. "But given the chance, they could command the winds and summon the rains, once again shaking the Yang Realm!"

Some of these races were even traced and feared by Li.

For example, the Bodhi Buddhist Clan, the Primordial Daoist Clan, and the Human Race with nine-colored blood were all Aberrant Clans that vanished into the river of history, so powerful that their magic was boundless.

One must know that the Buddhist and Daoist Clans themselves were among the foremost great clans. How strong would the Bodhi Buddhist Clan and Primordial Daoist Clan be, having transcended from these clans and established themselves as independent entities?

It is said that in the mundane world, some commoners' wealth does not last beyond three generations. A similar analogy can be made in the evolution realm: the eventual demise of some incredibly powerful races was due to the contamination of their own bloodlines, becoming impure in the end, until they completely declined and then disappeared forever.

“When my elder brother explored the ruined relics of some of the strongest races in history, he once encountered an old fellow from the Bodhi Buddhist Clan in the Three Star Cave. That person was truly earth-shattering, suppressing ancient and modern times, terrifying to the extreme. They fought fiercely, and only then was he finally suppressed.”

“Yes, back then, when the last young man of the nine-colored blood Human Race was born, he dared to fight a group of old fellows in the Yang Realm. My brother hadn't even emerged then…”

Li's grandfather was only sixteen or seventeen at the time and was fortunate enough to witness that person's magnificent bearing from afar. Unfortunately, that young Human King died prematurely; otherwise, the Yang Realm might have had another immortal legend.

"Alright, I understand!" Chu Feng realized he had been led astray by Lao Gu, and almost delayed the main business by listening to his tales of old.

Lao Gu said, “Yes, it’s good that you know. The most terrifying races in history will reappear sooner or later. Because there are a total of three Bloodline Fruits in the Yang Realm; aside from the one we found, the other two might not be truly withered. If they get their hands on the fruits, it could turn the world upside down and change everything completely.”

Dong Dahu muttered, wondering if it felt like a sealed forbidden magic box. Once opened, with the reappearance of some vanished clans, it could radiate immortal light, leading to world-shattering catastrophes.

“Nothing is absolute. Strong bloodlines are certainly formidable," Lao Gu argued, "but some people with ordinary bloodlines can still astonish the past and present, become unrivaled, and perhaps even more formidable!”

Lao Gu gave examples, such as Li and the Martial Maniac. Each of them was exceptionally powerful, but he hadn't heard that they were born into prominent families; they rose solely through their own efforts.

“Some fruits, even if you had a thousand catties of celestial gold stone or a pile of rare treasures, you couldn't exchange for them. For instance, the Bloodline Fruit, or the invincible pollen and strongest exotic fruits mentioned in the article on the exploration of the evolution path published by the Black Blood Research Institute. No matter how many resources you offer, no one would trade with you, and you couldn't buy them.”

Lao Gu further elaborated on how precious fruits capable of altering destiny were.

“Hmm, I understand. How about this, Lao Gu, later, you try using your token to rally people to attack the Mo family. Test the caliber of that organization and see if it's still in the hands of your old brother. If that truly doesn't work, I'll release one or half a Bloodline Fruit.” Chu Feng said, very seriously and earnestly.

“You must consider the Martial Maniac's murderous intent!” Lao Gu reminded him.

After all, when they harvested the Bloodline Fruit, they had eliminated a formidable figure from the Martial Maniac's faction. That was a Three-Reversal Absolute King, practicing the Seven Deaths Body, following the Martial Maniac's path from back then.

It went without saying that this person's identity was far from simple and absolutely terrifying.

“I've been at odds with them for a long time. People from this lineage have wanted to chop me to death ever since we parted ways at the Border Wilderness Dragon's Nest. What does one more offense matter?” Chu Feng was confident they wouldn't find him. It wasn't as if he hadn't killed core disciples from this lineage before. What difference would one more person practicing the Seven Deaths Body make?

Of course, he hoped it wasn't the Martial Maniac's illegitimate child!

Thinking about it, it was impossible. Even God-Kings found it difficult to have offspring, and Celestial Venerables were almost sterile. How much more so for the Martial Maniac? If he were to have a child at that level, it would truly be a miracle of creation!

As long as it wasn't his biological son or illegitimate child, a person like the Martial Maniac would likely remain expressionless even if Mount Sumeru collapsed before his eyes, still in secluded cultivation, seeking another breakthrough.

Of course, Chu Feng was also a little apprehensive. Although the Martial Maniac might not necessarily bother him, what if he really revealed the Bloodline Fruit? Hundreds of thousands of dark organizations would surely act like sharks sensing blood, frantically searching for his whereabouts.

That was the real trouble, so for a while, he truly didn't dare to use that fruit. He wasn't afraid of one power searching for him, but rather of all organizations in the world turning their attention to him.

Lao Gu was also conflicted, pondering whether or not to test that organization.

However, a startling change occurred. Before they could make a move, someone else had already struck, and quite decisively!

While the Mo family's experts had all gone out, heading to various places to seek revenge on the hundred thousand dark hunters, two individuals approached the Mo family's cemetery, each delivering a strike, then leaped into the void and vanished.

The Mo family cemetery exploded!

The so-called Mo family cemetery held immense significance. It was the burial ground of true Human Kings from all generations!

This was their hallowed ground, the resting place of their ancestors. Even though countless years had passed since their deaths, and some had even transcended in prehistoric times, their bodies remained lifelike and incorruptible.

The Human King bloodline was supremely formidable, persisting even after death.

This incident had an immense impact. Both individuals were very strong, and surprisingly, they were Celestial Venerables, directly attacking the Mo family's ancestral tombs.

Grave mounds crumbled, and terrifying stone tablets surged upwards, reaching hundreds of thousands of feet into the sky, grand and majestic. Supreme runes shimmered, epitaphs flowed, shattering the void.

It must be said that the Mo family's ancestral tombs were incredibly well-arranged. After enduring two palms from Celestial Venerables, they weren't destroyed, merely damaged.

Some grave mounds were overturned, revealing divine wood coffins and exposing five-colored burial grounds. Some coffins were even shattered, with Human King corpses tumbling out.

Other grand tombs remained unshaken and immortal, emitting wisps of shimmering colorful mist.

Of course, some other grand tombs were even more severely damaged, with Human King corpses bleeding.

“Ah…”

Within the Mo family, there was an owl-like howl. A skeletal old woman appeared, completely bald, her cultivation realm unfathomable. In one step, she arrived at the cemetery.

With one hand, she reached into the void, runic light swirling. It was as if she could crush the firmament and freeze time, attempting to trace back the past and capture those two individuals.

However, the two individuals were fully prepared, carrying secret treasures that concealed their aura, making them untraceable. The two Celestial Venerables vanished without a trace.

They successfully escaped, disappearing just like that.

Undoubtedly, the old woman was a Great Power, a female Human King of the Mo family. Having awakened from her deathly seclusion, she had rushed out directly.

With a whoosh, she disappeared again, pursuing them. Her eye sockets were sunken, like two dancing ghost fires, as she hunted down those who had attacked.

This area of heaven and earth silently annihilated, then exploded, revealing a terrifying wormhole. The old woman looked frail, but her power made veteran evolutionaries from all sides tremble and their scalps tingle.

No one knew how strong she truly was!

“So what if you chase me down? Do you think I'm afraid of you? If you've got the guts, find me! Your Grandfather Long Dayu fears nothing!”

Long Dayu spoke up, using a cosmic brain to challenge them, completely fearless. He was openly challenging the Mo family.

This was truly something; not wanting Ji Dade to monopolize the glory, he also made a move, contacting his old brothers from back then, with whom he shared life-or-death friendships, to help him vent his anger.

After these two strikes, let alone others, even Chu Feng was astonished, left gaping. This sly strange dragon was actually a tough character, truly making a move. And it was against the ancestral tombs of the Aberrant Clan—how ruthless!

“Long Dayu, whether it's up in the heavens or down in the netherworld, we will slaughter you! By the name of the Mo family ancestors, we swear to execute you!”

All the Mo family members, men, women, old and young, were infuriated, their eyes bloodshot. This was even more terrifying than a hundred thousand devils appearing simultaneously and destroying their properties; this was an attack on the Human King's cemetery!

Fortunately, the Mo family's tombs were all very special and had been arranged with protections. Otherwise, they would have been completely destroyed, and not a single ancestor resting there would have escaped; all would have been unearthed and desecrated.

“Do you think I, your grandpa, was scared easily? Those two were merely disciples of two of my old friends. Don't think you're the only ones with experts. I solemnly warn you, if you don't withdraw the bounty, this matter isn't over. I'll continue, with even more severe methods!”

Long Dayu's intimidation truly stunned evolutionaries across the Yang Realm. This individual was even more audacious than Ji Dade, also making grand moves that threatened to overturn the heavens.

“Long Dayu, your death won't be enough to atone! You've disturbed the souls of our ancestors! We will grind your bones to dust! Kill him!”

Throngs of Mo family members rushed out, employing every connection and method available, to search the entire world and drag Long Dayu out.

“Can you even catch me?” Long Dayu, with the demeanor of a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, left one last image, discarded the cosmic brain, and fled.

At this moment, Ji Dade reappeared, challenging the Mo family. He told them to withdraw the arrest warrant, giving them one last chance, or face the consequences.

The entire Mo family was in an uproar, enraged and feeling that there was no justice. They were a Human King family, yet they were being tormented by two young rascals, suffering heavy losses, which made them utterly furious.

At the same time, Chu Feng tried to contact Long Dayu, leaving a private message on a certain platform.

“Brother Dayu, your tactics, your bearing, truly peerless and magnificent. I admire them greatly. We share similar aspirations, so how about I invite you to be the first of the Four Beauties?”

Long Dayu: “#&…”

Long Dayu utterly detested Ji Dade. He had inexplicably made him a scapegoat, and now he even dared to tease him, calling him the first beauty?!

“Long Dayu, how could you misunderstand my good intentions and curse at me?” Chu Feng called out. “If you want to join later, you'll only be second!”

Long Dayu stamped his foot in anger. He currently had no idea what the 'Four Beauties' were or what organization they referred to. He only thought Chu Feng was mocking him, so he gritted his teeth.

“Ji Dade, just you wait! Don't let me catch you!” He discarded that cosmic brain and fled once more.

“Long Dayu, you truly misunderstand my good intentions! Listen to me, our Four Beauties are destined to be etched in history, shaking the Yang Realm and illuminating the past, present, and future!”

“Oh, for heaven’s sake!”

At the same time, Chu Feng changed locations and used a different cosmic brain. He then shouted at the Mo family: “So you're not withdrawing the arrest warrant? The Celestial Venerable Slaughter event is officially commencing!”

He was issuing his final threat and intimidation.
