Chapter 441: The Saint Has Arrived

"Boss Chu has finally extended his 'sinful demonic hand' towards those arrogant beings from beyond our realm. Even the Saint Child was so utterly devastated that he was seething with rage, his anger reaching the heavens!" muttered Du Huaijin, known as "Tele-eye."

"From now on, who in this world or beyond will not know Devil King Chu?"

Ouyang Qing, Ye Qingrou, and the others were deeply moved. Ever since they met Chu Feng, he had constantly "tormented" their nerves, with one astonishing feat after another, each more terrifying than the last.

The news spread across the world, causing a huge commotion. Chu Feng's act of single-handedly eliminating a group associated with the Saint Child was earth-shattering, leaving evolutionaries from both East and West dumbfounded.

The same shock reverberated across the oceans; various sea tribes were left wide-eyed and speechless upon hearing the news.

Reportedly, the Old Dragon King of the South Sea swore that very day to obtain the Dragon Transformation Fruit.

The world trembled. Was Devil King Chu defying the heavens? Everyone was deeply astonished.

Meanwhile, on the famous mountains and star paths, the divine maidens and saint children who heard the news were all lost in thought, remaining silent for a long time.

"Ah..." On the sea outside Penglai Immortal Island, a broken ship drifted. Chen Sheng was wailing, filled with humiliation and indignation.

In today's events, he had become an absolute joke. Without a doubt, he would be the subject of ridicule during people's conversations.

While he wasn't the primary antagonist in the incident, and nowhere near as devastated as Yuwen Feng, the detrimental impact on him was no less significant.

He had set out aggressively that day, only to flee in panic after hearing about Chu Feng's terrifying achievements. The Devil King had powerfully shot off one of his arms, forcing him to escape like a stray dog.

He was certain that in the eyes of others, he had brought this upon himself, rushing headlong into danger, and looking utterly ridiculous in the process.

"Chosen Son? That's a joke! With the power of Penglai, I initially thought killing him would be like crushing an insect, but... we can't deploy our top experts. Who can tell me how to deal with him now?!" Chen Sheng roared, his voice chillingly sharp.

An elder tried to console him: "Young Master, please calm down. The world has only just begun its revival, and it's far too early for the secret realm to open. Your uncles and those ancient, revered seniors cannot yet escape their confinement, so they naturally cannot manifest their powers in the human world."

An elderly woman also spoke, saying, "In fact, in a little more time, several of your brothers and sisters might be able to emerge from the secret realm and assist you in your revenge."

Upon hearing about his siblings, Chen Sheng's face grew even darker. Touching his severed arm, he said, "I used the Yin-Yang Breathing Technique, reversing Yin and Yang and practically crippling myself. Yet they are all fine, each more stable than the last. Even my younger brother is significantly stronger than me."

The elder replied, "Young Master, you were too impatient. The Yin-Yang Breathing Technique is incomplete, with many missing parts. It was one of the strongest breathing techniques on Earth in ancient times. Without the complete chapters, attempting to reverse Yin-Yang, life, and death to achieve nirvana and aspire to greater transcendence is inherently fraught with peril. However, possessing such courage, your future achievements after recovery may be limitless."

"My arm is broken; I'm already a cripple. What future is there to speak of?" Chen Sheng's eyes were gloomy. Despite his words, he showed no signs of despair or dejection.

"The Earth is recovering, and potent medicines will soon appear across various regions. Regenerating a severed limb won't be overly difficult. In fact, deep within our Penglai secret realm, we already possess such exotic fruits."

"I now harbor a deep resentment; I don't want Chu Feng to live. I want him dead immediately. Which other grottoes and caves did Penglai leave behind in the outside world? I want them excavated to retrieve the 'heavy weapons' and immediately blast him!"

"Young Master, this... please reconsider. Those places are far too dangerous; we might die if we go!"

"I don't care. Kill Chu Feng immediately. Also, I find his breathing technique very unusual; it might have an incredible origin, and I want it! From now on, gather intelligence for me, learn all the characteristics of his breathing technique. I want to verify its secrets." Chen Sheng's face was grim; his heart felt as if it were being chewed by a beast; he couldn't wait any longer.

As the world buzzed with uproar and astonishment, Chu Feng arrived at Longhu Mountain.

He gazed from afar at the Taoist ancestral home, majestic and immense.

Longhu Mountain's soil was unique, composed of reddish earth and rock, resembling the Danxia landform.

In ancient times, the entire mountain range was perpetually shrouded in fiery clouds, rumored to be a result of alchemy.

Deep within the mountains, legend held that there was a divine city, hailed as the capital of Taoism, which connected to various star domains. For countless ages, many Taoist traditions from across the starry sky would undertake pilgrimages there.

Yet, all of it was fleeting, like a night-blooming cereus, withering at its peak, fading away too soon.

Upon revisiting Longhu Mountain, Chu Feng felt an even greater difference.

While this mountain range lacked the delicate beauty of Yandang Mountain or the magnificent grandeur of Huangshan, its aura was truly extraordinary, imbued with the essence of immortal Taoism. Now, a unique energy factor, the "immortal mist," grew denser, permeating the mountains.

Longhu Mountain's terrain was extraordinary. Now, crimson mists swirled around its peaks, and the air was filled with the fragrant scent of herbs.

There were many peaks, but the main peak was the most unique. When the demonic woman appeared that year, her presence in that demon-refining place was earth-shattering and awe-inspiring.

Now, halfway up the main peak, a bronze palace stood, supported by copper pillars, with jade walls, and covered with bronze tiles excavated from the ruins of Longhu Mountain. It served as the residence of that mysterious woman.

"Halt!"

A magpie spoke, perched on a large pine tree outside the copper-tiled palace, issuing the warning.

"I wish to see the owner of this place," Chu Feng stated.

The copper-tiled palace was not small, suggesting the mysterious woman had no intention of compromising on comfort and would likely be very comfortable living there.

With the mountain now enveloped in special "immortal mist" energy, accompanied by swirling crimson clouds, the atmosphere here was extraordinary, resembling a celestial dwelling.

"The master is not here," the magpie replied.

Just then, a wildcat emerged from the pine forest near the copper-tiled palace, stepping elegantly as it scrutinized Chu Feng. After a slight hesitation, it said, "Are you Chu Feng? The master said that if you arrived, I could tell you her whereabouts. She went along the star path to relax and visit old friends."

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng was utterly bewildered. What exactly was going on?

That person... could easily step into space? Traveling through the cosmos for leisure — wasn't that utterly terrifying?

Still, he always felt there was a hint of exaggeration. Ever since he met that demonic woman, or rather, goddess, he'd felt a bit disoriented. She seemed particularly prone to bragging!

If she possessed such immense power, why was she confined to Longhu Mountain all those years ago?

Although the energy tower on the moon stated that this woman possessed exceptional talent, it never specified her cultivation level.

In fact, Chu Feng even suspected that *this* woman wasn't *that* woman.

"Are you certain she said that?!" Chu Feng then released his spiritual energy, suppressing the two strange creatures.

He could tell that these two strange creatures had only just attained kingship. If they truly were that woman's subordinates, she certainly wasn't particular, having casually taken a bird and a beast into her service.

"Ah, Devil King Chu, please don't kill me!" the magpie shrieked, clearly terrified.

A person's reputation casts a long shadow. As a local evolutionary, it knew Chu Feng and greatly feared him; its earlier composure vanished completely.

The wildcat, which had been strolling elegantly, also let out a yelp, leaping high onto the copper-tiled palace. It first tried to appear fierce, then became utterly terrified, and finally completely surrendered, quickly confessing everything.

"The master said that if I couldn't fool you, then it didn't matter," the wildcat admitted sheepishly.

What was going on? Chu Feng's face darkened; he sensed a major deception. Was that woman really such a big liar?!

"Where exactly did she go?" Chu Feng pressed.

"She should still be on Earth, gone to seek opportunities," the wildcat whispered, its voice increasingly lacking conviction.

"This female trickster, this grand deceiver, could it be that she's not even from that family at all? What if she just happened to know old stories and appropriated various identities for herself!"

The more Chu Feng pondered, the more plausible it seemed. If she truly were a young lady from a supreme family left behind from Earth's most glorious era, having endured countless ages, separation by death, the loss of loved ones, and the pain of a fiancé's betrayal, how could she still maintain such a youthful and carefree demeanor?

"Where exactly is she, and what is she searching for?" Chu Feng asked sternly.

The wildcat was so frightened it was almost in tears, its legs cramping, and it quickly blurted out its answer.

"She might have gone to the Land of Ten Thousand Gods to find the ancestral root of the immortal peaches, wanting to pick the Peaches of Immortality. It seems... she wants to revive someone buried beneath Longhu Mountain."

Chu Feng's heart pounded with alarm. Could this truly be real?

It now seemed that woman was indeed peculiar. There were others here, apparently waiting for her to revive them. Who could they be?!

He glanced at the wildcat, which was far too easily scared, spilling everything with just a slight threat. The magpie was even worse, trembling so much it was nearly falling from the tree.

Undoubtedly, that woman had simply taken in two strange creatures to guard her home, without putting any real effort into cultivating them.

The Land of Ten Thousand Gods, located in the deepest part of Kunlun, was still far from opening. The fact that the woman dared to go there indicated she possessed extraordinary strength, certainly far greater than Chu Feng's.

He pondered for a moment, then decided not to follow, opting instead to wait at Longhu Mountain.

He intended to search the area to see if he could find the person awaiting revival.

Chu Feng waited there for two days, constantly searching the mountains, but found no clues regarding the living dead person.

Instead, his expression grew increasingly solemn. Longhu Mountain was far more terrifying than he had imagined. Despite his significantly increased mastery of domain arrays, he still couldn't reach the summit of the main peak.

From a distance, he saw several corpses on the mountaintop, their blood still vividly red. There was also a horned dragon, broken into multiple segments, yet he couldn't get close to it.

Furthermore, he witnessed an even more astonishing sight: a hazy immortal city, appearing and disappearing, reflected within the mountains.

"Is there truly a Taoist capital?" Chu Feng was astounded.

However, he believed the actual location was terrifyingly distant, and what he saw was merely a reflection.

Simultaneously, deep within Longhu Mountain, Chu Feng spotted several star paths. Within those folded spaces, numerous beings, including many God-Child level figures, were active.

He paid them no mind, as he wasn't in the mood.

Over the next few days, Longhu Mountain remained peaceful, and other regions of Earth gradually settled down. While the commotion Chu Feng had caused still lingered, it no longer sent tremors across the land as it had just days before.

Meanwhile, in the realm beyond Earth, earth-shattering changes were unfolding.

A massive fleet departed from Neptune, Mars, and other planets, drawing closer to Earth.

What was even more terrifying was that from the depths of space, a formidable aura of war beasts permeated the void, with auspicious light swirling, as if it could suppress all the stars in the heavens!

A grand chariot slowly approached, emanating an immense and unfathomable pressure that caused the starry sky to tremble. Even the warships quivered like rootless duckweed upon a vast ocean.

Then, a golden path of light unfolded from the depths of space, extending into the solar system.

A war beast, pulling a grand chariot, moved slowly along the golden path, its entire presence exuding an aura of ultimate power.

Instantly, the starry sky fell silent, and the sun and moon dimmed!

In Earth's outer space, Yang Xuan, Qing Lan, and the third person were struck with awe, then began to tremble uncontrollably, their bodies convulsing. They felt an irresistible urge to prostrate themselves, their hair standing on end.

"A... Saint... is approaching, intending to act here!" Their teeth chattered, and their voices trembled with fear.

As the annual college entrance examinations approach, I wish all readers taking the exam excellent results and success in gaining admission to their desired schools.
