Chapter 459: How Lonely It Is to Be Invincible

"I am invincible under the starry sky!"

Chu Feng's hair fluttered as he looked disdainfully at the outer domain. This scene instantly spread to the depths of the universe, carried along the interstellar network, and projected directly onto the Prime Beast Platforms of all major life-bearing planets. At this moment, all the star systems watched intently!

Now, the outer domains were silent, and the starry sky was still. Who was the last person to utter such words, and when was it? It was too ancient, too long ago for people to remember. However, the person who spoke those words today would surely be remembered, destined to be known throughout the cosmos!

At this moment, Chu Feng's kidneys glowed, and a pair of energy wings burst forth from his ribs. He stood suspended in mid-air, with the emerald sea undulating below and the silent starry sky above.

Outside Earth, the three Saints remained silent. Yjiu Que felt an intense headache, genuinely wishing to swoop down and slap him to death! The two Dao children, however, kept their mouths tightly shut, not uttering a word, fearing they might provoke the Saints' wrath.

Across the various star systems and numerous life-bearing planets, there was an utter hush, so quiet that a pin drop could be heard. People were simply stunned. On the Prime Beast Platform, the commentator's mouth felt bitter. He truly had a splitting headache and his temples throbbed. How was he supposed to explain this? Did this native even know what he was saying?! Several specially invited renowned figures had their eyes almost popping out, staring at the screen speechless. They were gasping in cold air, experiencing something like this for the very first time.

"I am invincible under the starry sky!" How dare he utter such words? One must know that even beings capable of illuminating all heavens would not dare to boast in such a way. Anyone who dared to say this would cause a cosmic upheaval, leading to bloodshed and slaughter.

"The younger generation is truly formidable," one renowned figure finally managed to blurt out after a long silence, genuinely afraid to mention the sensitive phrase "invincible under the starry sky" again.

"Indeed, this young native is incredibly confident!" the commentator echoed, regaining his composure, eager to brush off the topic quickly. This was because it touched upon ancient, terrifying, and highly sensitive historical events.

The renowned figures all recovered their wits, unwilling to comment further on the matter. However, what made them flush with discomfort was that the native was still alive, not dead by the Saints' hands as they had predicted. Just a short while ago, they had repeatedly emphasized that Saints were invincible, could never be offended, and should always be treated with reverence. Yet, after cursing the Saints, this native was still jumping around lively, and most importantly, he was still there... feigning invincibility! How thick-skinned must this native be to utter such words? In their view, his shamelessness was truly sky-high!

At this point, ordinary people wore strange expressions. Initially, there was profound silence. But soon, the Prime Beast Platform erupted.

"Oh my! What did I just hear?"

Unlike the commentator and the renowned figures, they had no such reservations. What was there to fear across the interstellar network? Who knew who?!

"A divine being has emerged, invincible under the starry sky!"

"What's this brother's name, Chu Feng? I've memorized it!"

"Heavens above, today we've encountered someone incredibly audacious, a being who, after countless ages, dares to declare himself invincible under the starry sky!"

The Prime Beast Platform became a cacophony of noise. A crowd of people, as if infused with phoenix blood, became completely ecstatic and agitated, almost bursting with excitement.

The news spread incredibly fast, causing a stir across the interstellar network. More people flocked in, starting to enter the Prime Beast Platform to watch after receiving the news. Many had not known earlier, but now, urgently notified by those around them, they quickly connected to the interstellar network and logged onto the Prime Beast Platform.

Earth, East Sea.

Chu Feng stood in mid-air, looking incredibly profound. On the five-colored grand vessel, the silver turtle, propping up a table leg, glared at his back, its teeth itching with hatred, eyes full of savage glints. "Invincible under the starry sky, my foot!" it thought, wishing to strike him dead with a single turtle punch!

Li Lin was also speechless. This native... was truly putting on an act. "If you're so capable, try flying into outer space," she thought. "A single strand of hair from a Saint could sever your body, splattering blood across the sky. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning by proclaiming yourself invincible under the starry sky?"

"Hmph, who dares to contend with me?!"

At this, Chu Feng boldly challenged, gazing towards the starry sky. He genuinely couldn't see the Saints outside the domain, but that didn't stop him from feigning a stare. At this moment, he exuded the demeanor of a true master, appearing even more profound.

Outside the domain, the three Saints remained silent. Yjiu Que, however, wore an expression of severe constipation; it was unbearable. This native was incredibly arrogant, and when considering the cause, it all stemmed from him. This put Yjiu Que in a truly difficult spot, making him want to instantly kill the native!

Now, the viewers on the Prime Beast Platform grew even more excited, each one seemingly having drunk true dragon blood or sacred phoenix blood, completely overstimulated. Seeing the Saints frustrated and someone challenging authority in such a way, many people cheered loudly. More and more people entered the Prime Beast Platform, overflowing its capacity and nearly causing the platform to crash at one point. From various star systems and different life-bearing planets, countless individuals surged in.

Undoubtedly, Chu Feng's name now shone brightly on the Prime Beast Platform, crashing down upon everyone with an overwhelming force, leaving an indelible impression. Regardless of whether his reputation was good or bad, at the very least, he truly began to make a name for himself across the cosmos!

At this point, not just the general populace, but also the major evolution sects, prominent evolution families, and even some sacred lands, were no longer peaceful. For a time, the heavens themselves seemed to boil with commotion!

Outside Earth, Yuwen Chengkong spoke, "I wish to shatter this planet!"

As a Saint, known as the Hundred Transformations, capable of melting all things, he could naturally destroy a star with a mere flick of his hand. However, he also knew this place was different. Sword Saint Duanmu also began to emanate chaotic energy, causing the outer domain to tremble. He slowly shook his head and said, "Unless one can illuminate all heavens."

Otherwise, the domain field here could not be dismantled at all, for it was set up by the Saint Teacher! However, those capable of illuminating all heavens had always been apprehensive, fearing that the Saint Teacher was not dead and would return. Moreover, this planet was once ranked eleventh in the universe, and some "remnants" had survived, constantly fleeing in exile. In the past, some had tried to wipe out this place, but they met with a counterattack that directly led to the destruction of their own planets and the annihilation of their entire races! Undoubtedly, that was a huge deterrent!

The "remnants" wandering in exile were, in their view, extremely terrifying individuals, greatly feared. Of course, such individuals were becoming fewer and fewer, nearing extinction. However, if the Saint Teacher were to truly reappear, it would be terrifying. He was considered by some to be the greatest source of terror; he could organize galaxies, control the heavens and earth, and was capable of destroying many life-bearing planets. Such a cost was unbearable for anyone. Even the powerhouses capable of illuminating all heavens, unafraid for themselves, had to worry about their descendants.

"I believe the Saint Teacher is dead!" the Hundred Transformations Saint Yuwen Chengkong stated, his voice deep and resolute.

"We have been waiting for news; the mystery of the Saint Teacher's life and death is nearing its final resolution." Just then, Ancient Saint Juntuo, who had been completely silent, finally spoke. His words were astonishing, moving even Sword Saint Duanmu and Yuwen Chengkong! This contained much information; perhaps Juntuo's visit here this time also held a deeper meaning. In the past, Juntuo was one of the primary Saints, having attacked Earth and slaughtered Saints here.

"Take this!"

Just then, Juntuo bestowed an item upon a Dao child, while he himself remained seated in his stone chariot, shrouded in chaos, completely unseen. It was a sarira, its brilliant light illuminating the outer domain, dazzlingly bright. It was left behind by a Golden-bodied Bodhisattva upon death and had been obtained by Juntuo. Undoubtedly, such an item was exceptionally precious. Even though Juntuo had absorbed eighty percent of its contained Saint source while healing in ancient times, it was still a priceless holy artifact. This object made Yjiu Que's eyes red with envy, but he dared not speak further.

The Dao child unleashed it, sending it towards the East Sea to continue the assault on Chu Feng. This Saint-level sarira belonged to another Saint, so using it this way would not incur karmic retribution; if there were any backlash, it would only target that Golden-bodied Bodhisattva.

Above the sea, Saint power boiled. The sarira bloomed with thousands of golden lights, as if to deliver all sentient beings. A Bodhisattva figure appeared, its golden body sacred and pure, descending with suppressive force. Chu Feng felt a splitting headache, his entire body tensing. He sensed an apocalyptic aura; what seemed sacred to others, to him, undoubtedly represented death and destruction. With the appearance of this golden Dharma-form, it exuded an invincible might! Any Golden-bodied Bodhisattva, upon emerging, was unparalleled, capable of leveling demons and sweeping across an entire star domain. Even in its current incomplete state, it was still terrifying.

Earth's domain field revived, vast and unfathomable, personally laid out by the Saint Teacher. The domain field had once disintegrated, torn apart by powerhouses capable of illuminating all heavens. However, after a great catastrophe, it was whole again. It was precisely because of this that people grew more wary, suspecting that the Saint Teacher was not dead and had returned here to re-establish it!

Rumbling!

In the sky, the golden Dharma-form gradually dimmed, eroded by the unparalleled domain field, slowly fading away, unable to approach the five-colored grand vessel near the East Sea. This was the Saint Teacher's method; the domain field was unmatched, making the sarira reveal itself!

In the depths of the starry sky, not just others, but even the commentator swallowed hard, and the renowned figures' pupils constricted.

"The Saint Teacher!" one person couldn't help but exclaim, though he quickly silenced himself, as this was a taboo figure, not to be discussed much.

On the Prime Beast Platform, however, the crowd had fewer reservations and expressed their amazement. Regarding the Saint Teacher, even though he was a taboo figure whom many races and top sects forbade mentioning, numerous young disciples were still curious about him and had researched various records about him. A significant portion of people revered him, almost to the point of worship, because he was a defiant individual who had left behind too many legends. Even now, on the moon, the physical body of an invincible Demon Saint—the White Tiger—provided energy for some lunar facilities, proving how defy-the-heavens the Saint Teacher's methods once were. Many people knew these things.

Earth, East Sea.

With a final soft sound, the sarira flew away, swallowed by an invisible force. It was Immemorial Mountain again. It was like a famished prehistoric beast, craving high-level energy, immensely desiring Saint blood, Bodhisattva sarira, and the like.

Outside the domain, silence fell once more. The three Saints, shrouded in chaotic mist, their eyes deep and profound, instantly shot out terrifying beams of light, gazing towards Immemorial Mountain! This matter was unusual, somewhat eerie. Because even the three Saints could not detect Immemorial Mountain!

Chu Feng stood in mid-air, flapping his light wings, feeling a little guilty. A cold sweat broke out on his body; that had been a Golden-bodied Bodhisattva, descending to suppress and kill. He deeply felt how much the Saints outside the domain wanted to kill him; they had even sacrificed such a sarira, acting with considerable resolve!

Outside Earth, the Dao child was also sweating cold. The sarira was lost, never to be retrieved! Such an item was a priceless treasure even for Saints; its loss would cause them immense heartache. The child was somewhat afraid.

At this moment, Chu Feng steadied his mind and spoke again, pointing towards the outer domain, "What kind of skill is it to repeatedly ambush me? If you have the guts, come down and fight me fair and square!"

Outside Earth, there was no sound, only deathly silence. The atmosphere was terrifying to the extreme. On the Prime Beast Platform, the commentator was dumbfounded, truly not knowing how to describe this native; he was incredibly thick-skinned! The renowned figures also grumbled inwardly: if the Saints could enter that planet, would they let you jump around? A single glance would be enough to shatter you into a mist of blood. However, they couldn't be so direct. One renowned figure smiled amiably, "This young man has great courage, but despising Saints is a capital offense."

The renowned figures didn't dare to comment much on Chu Feng because he kept jumping around lively, repeatedly defying Saints, yet he wouldn't die and was perfectly fine. This contradicted their repeated warnings to the public about maintaining reverence for Saints and never blaspheming them, anytime, anywhere. But this native seemed to exist solely to defy common sense!

On the Prime Beast Platform, ordinary people were in an uproar. Seeing the native repeatedly provoke the Saints and remain alive, they were immensely excited.

"Xinyu, quick, come to the Prime Beast Platform! A shocking event is happening here!"

"Yumo, log into the Prime Beast Platform right away! A holy war is underway here, with a native single-handedly challenging three Saints; it's practically defying the heavens!"

Those who had watched the live broadcast earlier continuously called their friends, attracting more people. The platform grew even more boisterous, with countless cultivators from various races pouring in. The owners of the Prime Beast Platform, several prominent figures, were delighted. For the first time, they felt a liking for Chu Feng and thought that if there was an opportunity, they should provide him with some support. At the same time, they felt that they should ensure this native remained alive for now, as he was truly an eye-catching cosmic celebrity, worth "investing" in. This was because viewing live broadcasts on the Prime Beast Platform was not free; it required spending a certain amount of cultivation resources.

Earth, East Sea.

Chu Feng's eyes were clear, his hair flying, as he spoke.

"Who dares to fight me?!"

Outside the domain, the three Saints' faces were almost as strained as if they were constipated. They naturally knew that the interstellar network covered this area, and a live broadcast was underway.

Boom, boom, boom...

Subsequently, above the East Sea, destructive energy continuously erupted, with various phenomena manifesting, almost tearing apart the cosmos, terrifying to the extreme. In the sea, all creatures trembled. Those who could escape fled; those who couldn't remained there, shivering and submissive.

Chu Feng's hair stood on end. He repeatedly felt death approaching; the Saintly might was irresistible. Yet, in the end, he did not die. He was still alive, standing right there.

"Well, old man, I just won't die!" he challenged, now like a mischievous boy with a provocative smile. This scene instantly ignited the starry sky. Many people took screenshots, saving this image. Evidently, Chu Feng was unaware that his popularity was skyrocketing and that he was now known throughout the outer domain.

"Such a wicked smile, so handsome!" A young woman even let out such a cry, making many men on the Prime Beast Platform dissatisfied.

People knew that the Saints had lost face this time; it remained to be seen whether they could effectively kill Chu Feng next.

At this moment, the Prime Beast Platform's probes provided a close-up of Chu Feng's location, making the image even clearer and capturing the scene on the five-colored grand vessel behind him. In that instant, many people were petrified!

What did they see? Ancient Saint Juntuo's descendant—Yin Hong!

Not long ago, people already knew the backstory; someone had posted Yin Hong's photo on the Prime Beast Platform, and now they had found the real thing.

"What the f—, is that Ancient Saint Juntuo's descendant? It's there..."

"Oh my god, Saint Yin Hong is actually... propping up a table leg? Am I seeing this right? Used as a mere prop!"

This image clearly captured the silver turtle's predicament, propping up a table leg, shocking all beings in the starry sky and leaving them utterly dumbfounded. In an instant, these people felt that Chu Feng was a truly profound individual. Perhaps this was the legendary "elevated style," directly raising his status. That was Ancient Saint Juntuo's descendant, used to prop up a table leg—this was simply defying all norms!

Soon, someone else cried out in alarm, having discovered Saintess Li Lin.

"Ah, isn't that the goddess of my heart? Why is she there too? Heavens, she's actually wearing a maid's outfit! Damn you, native Chu Feng, what have you done?!"

The Prime Beast Platform erupted into chaos.

Next, the three Saints outside Earth seemed to grow enraged, launching a barrage of attacks aimed at killing Chu Feng. Lightning flashed and thunder roared, making the scene exceptionally terrifying. Chu Feng was extremely apprehensive, feeling too close to death, as if he could perish at any moment. In the depths of the starry sky, even more people began to pay attention to this matter, with some Saints even emerging from their seclusion to observe.

When another terrifying burst of holy light ended and the assault ceased, Chu Feng stood motionless. He had genuinely been shaken to his core moments before, his mind unsettled, and was now trying to calm himself. Finally, he made his eyes profound, deeper than ever before, and declared, "How lonely it is to be invincible!"

In an instant, the entire starry sky fell silent.
