Chapter 337: Target Fengshan

Thunder? Are you kidding? The sky is crystal clear and the sun is shining brightly. There's no thunder or lightning anywhere.

Jiang Luoshen let out a soft laugh and smiled sweetly, saying, "Have you been doing too many bad things? Are you afraid of being struck by lightning, which is why you're so nervous and staring at the sky?"

Chu Feng's heart skipped a beat; he really wanted to admit there was some truth to that.

Of course, he wouldn't admit it. He said earnestly, "I feel slightly apologetic towards you, but I've done nothing that goes against my conscience."

"What exactly have you done to feel guilty towards me?" Jiang Luoshen asked warily, feeling strange and generally uneasy. Especially when golden light flowed in his eyes, with sparks of fire, she felt an increasing restlessness in her heart.

"What are you staring at?" she reprimanded softly, as Chu Feng was too unrestrained, openly scrutinizing her up and down under everyone's gaze.

It wasn't their first meeting; was there really a need for such behavior?

"Wow, I think handsome Brother's eyes are so charming," giggled the mischievous girl, young but captivatingly beautiful. "They even have an electric glow when he stares at my sister."

Chu Feng's face flushed red. Although he knew these people weren't aware that he had acquired fiery golden eyes from being refined in the Tai Shang Eight Trigrams Furnace, he still felt a little guilty, as if he had been caught red-handed.

At the same time, he rubbed his nose, fearing that his internal heat was too strong and he might actually get a nosebleed. He even felt he must have developed a stye by now.

He himself felt that it was truly a sin to scan his surroundings so brazenly and unrestrainedly; it was utterly improper!

However, for the moment, he couldn't find a solution. These fiery golden eyes were simply too overbearing; how could he conceal this special ability?

Otherwise, constantly staring at people like this every day would be novel at first, but unbearable in the long run.

For instance, watching Jiang Luoshen and the mischievous girl stroll about in front of him was indeed a visual feast, a beautiful spectacle.

Of course, he claimed it was a purely artistic feast, nothing more. But saying so was truly a bit against his conscience, and he himself blushed.

However, he didn't just see Jiang Luoshen; there were others. For example, he now saw the old Daoist priest approaching, limping with a dark expression on his face.

"Old Daoist, you're truly indecent!" Chu Feng exclaimed. At that moment, he felt his eyes burning and desperately wanted to wash them; this was certainly no enjoyment.

The old man was limping, his Daoist robe worn out. Even though he had changed into a purple robe, it was now tattered.

That wasn't the main point; the issue was that the old man just wobbled directly toward him from the front.

Chu Feng could now see through people to their essence; no clothing could conceal it.

Earlier, when he encountered other male kings, he had only looked at them from the side, reserving his direct gaze for Jiang Luoshen and others.

But now, he felt this shameless old man, despite his incredibly high power, presented a truly unsightly appearance!

The old Daoist priest was seething with anger. He hadn't even uttered a word, yet this youngster spoke first, daring to call him indecent? This was truly intolerable!

"You little rascal, you're really something!" the old Daoist priest roared. "You burned this Daoist priest to the brink of death, and you're still howling and yelling? Are you looking to die, or just looking to die?!"

The old Daoist priest bared his teeth, and grimaced as his wounds were agitated, making it look almost like a sinister grin.

In Chu Feng's eyes, this smile from the old Daoist priest, combined with his wobbly and indecent posture, was truly... perverse!

"You shameless old man!"

Chu Feng felt his eyes had truly been assaulted; it was utterly disgusting. To restore his psychological balance, he immediately turned his gaze to the rebellious girl.

"Boy, what did you say?!" The old Daoist priest was furious. He hadn't even fully erupted, yet this kid dared to disrespect him first?!

Chu Feng avoided looking at him, clearing his throat to cover up. "Old man," he said, "I was just wondering how your child was raised? What did she eat? Her small face is exquisitely beautiful; she can't be very old, but she's developed exceptionally well."

"Chu Feng, handsome Brother, saying that will make me shy," said the rebellious girl. She was still young, but her figure was slender and exceptionally alluring. Her current charming posture made many secretly think, "She's truly a little enchantress, too seductive."

The old Daoist priest immediately bristled, rolling up his sleeves.

"How dare you set your sights on my granddaughter? I'll beat you, you little bastard!" The old Daoist priest glared, having long found this kid obnoxious. He'd been taught a lesson several times, yet he was still so hopeless.

The mischievous girl twisted her slender waist, swaying like a weeping willow, and swiftly moved to block his path. "Grandfather," she declared, "if you keep being so unreasonable and interfering with my private life, I'll disown you!"

"Get out of the way!" the old Daoist priest fumed.

"Old man, as long as you don't wobble directly in front of me, everything's fine!" Chu Feng said, adding, "And I see your situation isn't looking too good."

"What did you say?!" He found this kid incredibly arrogant—telling him not to appear before him? This was truly... too presumptuous.

"Don't misunderstand, Senior, you've been poisoned by the ancient tomb," Chu Feng explained. "A black aura is appearing on your glabella; you need to resolve it quickly." His sharp eyes clearly saw a black mist coiling and rising within the old Daoist priest's body.

The old Daoist priest's expression changed. He had, in fact, already sensed it himself and had only come to take his granddaughter away, not wishing to linger.

He hadn't expected such a terrifying ancient tomb on Earth; it was simply beyond imagination. The mythical figures buried within clearly had extraordinary backgrounds.

"Senior, you need to undergo thorough treatment, or your life will be in danger!" Chu Feng said solemnly.

"Why is there a smell of decay?" someone asked.

Hearing this, the old Daoist priest's face fell. His backside had been brushed by that large, hairy black hand; had it really begun to rot? He himself could smell it now.

"Let's go!" The old Daoist priest grabbed the mischievous girl and turned to leave immediately; there was no time to delay.

This time, even the rebellious girl felt the situation was serious; she didn't argue and quickly left with him.

"Brother Chu Feng, what exactly happened just now? Why was there a blaze soaring into the sky?" someone asked. "All those people were burned to death, yet you... are unharmed?!"

At this moment, a group of people gathered around him, constantly asking questions. Some were confused, some skeptical, and some even harbored killing intent.

So many experts had died; this incident had a huge impact.

The factions who had lost experts were naturally heartbroken and furious, while those not directly involved were relaxed and merely wanted to know the full story.

"I warned everyone long ago not to trespass into that forbidden area, or great disaster would strike," Chu Feng stated. "I warned everyone, but some didn't listen to my advice and also implicated me!"

Chu Feng pointed to his body. His skin was now blackened, and he appeared to have sustained significant burns, at least on the surface.

"You see," Chu Feng said indignantly, "especially my eyes, I can barely see anything anymore. They've completely ruined me!" As he spoke, he blinked his eyes, and instantly, golden light blazed forth.

This instantly left some people speechless. Were his eyes truly damaged? They seemed even more vibrant, like two golden lamps.

"Chu Feng, are you alright?" Lin Yaoyao stepped forward, her face exquisitely beautiful, pure, and captivating.

Chu Feng looked at her, then choked and coughed repeatedly. Although he had known her for a long time and had even been her nominal boyfriend, this was the first time he had looked at her so directly, so bright and dazzling.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I was just burned by the fire, and I have too much internal heat."

*Crack!*

A clap of thunder sounded, and Chu Feng's body tensed instantly. He cursed, "Damn it, is heaven really going to strike me with lightning?!"

His body stiffened as he looked up at the sky.

However, no lightning descended; the sky remained clear and boundless.

"It's not from the sky; the thunder is coming from near the energy field on Zijin Mountain," someone reminded him.

"Oh, is that so? That's great!" Chu Feng breathed a long sigh of relief, a classic case of a guilty conscience.

He added, "I've degenerated severely and am half-crippled, so my divine senses aren't as keen."

As Chu Feng spoke, he looked inward, further reducing the energy within his body and channeling it into the black and white millstone.

Regardless of their personal opinions on Chu Feng, everyone agreed that his mastery of energy fields was currently unrivaled on Earth, and they still needed to cooperate with him.

The people who died had met such an unjust end, and the affected parties were all utterly enraged!

A group of people accompanied Chu Feng back to the mountainous area, observing from a distance.

"That underground tomb is about to cause some sinister disturbance; it actually attracted void lightning," someone said with a solemn expression. "The thunder just now was clearly meant to deter whatever is underground!"

Chu Feng observed for a long time, then said, "This place can't be used for now. The balance has been broken; next time, an ancient corpse might even crawl out of a coffin."

Painful groans came from that area. A piece of "charred remains" moved, struggling to crawl out, making everyone's hair stand on end.

Looking closely, it was actually the old woman from Genesis Biological. She hadn't died, but had lost the lower half of her body. Her vitality was astonishingly tenacious; she was still alive.

The young man with the crimson mark on his brow glanced indifferently at Chu Feng, then quickly rushed over and helped her up.

A group of people gathered around, as they now knew this might be an extraterrestrial being of immense origin!

No one expected that she would nearly die before achieving anything; she had only just emerged and was already burned to ruin.

However, all factions were very cautious and respectful, wanting to establish a connection with her to secure a path for the future.

"Senior, you're truly a miracle, with such powerful vitality," Chu Feng said, stepping forward with feigned compliments. Then he seriously added, "Where is your divine mountain? I'd like to enter the mountain with you to study the energy fields."

He genuinely wanted to go now. With his strength recovered and holding the Vajra Loop, he truly wasn't afraid of anything. He had set his sights on the energy field books collected by the old woman and others, intending to take them all.

Of course, if these people harbored ill intentions, he wouldn't mind going on a rampage within Genesis Biological.

The old woman felt a surge of anger and deep humiliation. She had only just emerged from the mountain, only to be ruined like this!

Now that Chu Feng was asking to enter the mountain with her, she was truly bewildered, even slightly fearful. She suspected whether the previous blazing energy field of the Eight Trigrams, which incinerated enemies in all directions, was somehow related to this young man.

Everyone left the area together and returned to Jiangning City.

For the time being, this area could no longer be utilized.

However, all factions still wanted to leverage Chu Feng's power to "nurture" and upgrade their divine weapons and other artifacts.

At this moment, someone was staring at the Vajra Loop in Chu Feng's hand, their eyes burning with desire.

"We can choose another location and set up again," someone from a conglomerate said.

"Let's go to the Land of Fengchan. Is there any more astonishing terrain than that?" someone suggested. "With Brother Chu Feng's astonishing mastery of energy fields, he might even be able to open a path there, leading us into a mysterious space with altars and ancient sacred trees, allowing us to seize a great opportunity."

Someone made this suggestion because, long ago, a medicinal fragrance had emanated from Mount Tai, yet people had never been able to find the entrance to its hidden space.

Yet, in such an important place, few people had gained opportunities there so far, which was clearly abnormal!

Everyone believed the Land of Fengchan was the foremost sacred site; once the correct path was found to enter the ancient folded space, the gains would undoubtedly be terrifying.

The Master of Jade Pure Palace's expression changed; he didn't want others to go there.

Hearing this, Chu Feng said, "Alright, let's go there!"

Because he truly wanted to try and explore the true nature of the Land of Fengchan.

If even Zijin Mountain had the topography of the Tai Shang Eight Trigrams Furnace, what about the Land of Fengchan?
