Chapter 650: Initial Hearing of the Secret of Three Divine Seeds

“My old friends who once fought alongside me, some of you are dead, some are crippled; very few remain. Although I am the weakest among those who still live, only I can set foot on this land again. Perhaps I can find that great opportunity which none of us discovered back then.”

The old woman smiled deeply, the wrinkles on her ancient face smoothing out. She gazed at the mountains and rivers, filled with a myriad of emotions, deeply missing those bygone years.

Back then, she was still young, and she could wantonly kill people here, slaughtering the evolvers of the planet ranked eleventh in the starry sky. She felt a profound sense of accomplishment.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…

Nearby, some people began to flee again. To stay would be certain death, and a miserable one at that. Who would wait to die? The human skins on the ground were too eerie; they did not want to meet such a fate.

“Children, your Grandma loves you very much. Come down!” The old woman smiled, gently shaking the Divine Blood-Transforming Banner in her hand. A blood aura permeated the air, directly covering the area ahead. Those who had tried to escape were the first to suffer, falling from mid-air, leaving behind only human skins and skeletal remains.

“Senior, my grandfather was once an attendant to the Purple Python Saint. His relationship with your Spirit Clan has always been close. Please show mercy and let me go.”

The purple-clad youth threw away his folding fan and knelt down, looking terrified, all his earlier high spirits gone.

“This is a bit troublesome, sigh. I think you should just be on your way. After all, only the dead can keep secrets. It’s not appropriate for the emergence of our clan’s Divine Blood-Transforming Banner to be leaked yet. If it becomes common knowledge, there will be big trouble.” The old woman shook her head, a faint smile playing on her lips.

“Senior, please spare my life! I have a secret to tell you in exchange for my life!” the Purple Python spirit shouted loudly.

“Oh, what secret?” The old woman became interested.

“My Purple Python clan is descended from true dragons, but we degenerated into serpentine form due to an accident. However, there are some ancient artifacts in our ancestral land. One of my great-great-grandfathers once discovered an inscription on a stone wall, left by an unknown era. It contained a passage saying that Kunlun might possess…”

At this point, the Purple Python spirit stopped speaking, abruptly falling silent.

“Why did you stop? Are you waiting for me to soul-search you?” the old woman said with a sinister smile.

The Purple Python spirit replied, “I want you to swear by the ancestor of your Spirit Clan that if I reveal the secret, you will let me go and guarantee my safe return to my grandfather.”

“You’re quite audacious, daring to coerce me?” the old woman said coldly.

“I wouldn’t dare. I just want to live. If Senior uses force, my spiritual power will self-detonate. At worst, I’ll just die!” The Purple Python spirit had also decided to go all out.

“Alright.” The old woman finally swore that if it was indeed a valuable secret, she would let the Purple Python spirit leave.

In fact, the Purple Python spirit was very passive and afraid, worrying that the oath might have loopholes, but in the end, it had no choice but to reveal the secret.

“That record was very concise; it mentioned that Kunlun has a Yang World Seed!” the Purple Python spirit stated solemnly.

Upon hearing this, the old woman’s face immediately darkened. “You’re messing with me! Just a few words, and you dare call it a huge secret?!”

However, in the distance, Chu Feng’s heart trembled. He became thoughtful, immediately thinking of the items on him. Could it be them?!

The Purple Python spirit was greatly alarmed and quickly said, “Senior, you do not know this, but the engravings in my clan’s ancestral land have been verified by saints. They are the relics of true dragons from the most ancient era, left by the most eminent figures among the first batch of Heaven-Illuminators who had already passed away in the annals of time.”

“Hmm?!” The old woman was stunned upon hearing this, falling into contemplation. She had to take it seriously.

The True Dragon clan, and the dragon from the most ancient era—its origins were simply too immense, immeasurable even. It could have been the universe’s foremost powerhouse back then!

“According to some clues, those words were believed to have been carved by that most ancient true dragon just before its death. On its deathbed, in a final burst of energy, it divined the location of Kunlun.”

When the old woman heard the Purple Python spirit’s words, she perked up, her expression becoming extremely solemn. Golden light flickered in her eyes as she grabbed him by the collar, pressing him for details.

“In that most ancient era, no one knew where Kunlun was or what kind of place it was; no one had ever spoken of this place in that ancient age,” the Purple Python spirit said with a bitter smile.

He looked somewhat helpless and continued, “It wasn’t until Earth rose to prominence, ranking eleventh, that the name of Kunlun spread throughout the universe. But this was already hundreds of millions of years after that most ancient true dragon had passed away.”

Then, the Purple Python spirit sighed, offering a deduction: their clan believed that the Thearchs might also know this secret, which is why they launched that war in ancient times, annihilating this planet.

“Back then, the Thearchs attacked this planet not only because they felt threatened, fearing their tenth ranking would be jeopardized, but more likely because they coveted the opportunities here, such as the breathing techniques, the Chaos Inheritance Pagoda, and… the Yang World Seed that the most ancient true dragon divined until its death!”

The Purple Python spirit’s words made the old woman’s expression shift between cloudy and clear. She was a Starry Sky Rider and had personally been dispatched to this place back then, so she understood the Thearchs’ attitude most clearly.

Recalling the bloody events she had participated in, she carefully remembered and found that the Thearchs indeed almost turned Kunlun upside down, as if searching for something.

Unfortunately, their actions were too rushed and were interrupted!

“There’s something to it, but revealing such a secret would lead to your clan’s extermination. You really dare to speak!” the old woman sneered.

“It is precisely because such a secret cannot be easily leaked, otherwise the consequences are unforeseeable, that I ask Senior to spare me. Your Divine Blood-Transforming Banner and the records on our clan’s stone wall must both remain hidden. Therefore, we can keep each other’s secrets.”

“You stand aside for now.” Evidently, the old woman’s killing intent had not receded, but she did not act immediately. She wanted to harvest the lifeblood of the others to prevent anyone from leaking the news.

“Ah…”

A chorus of screams filled the air, and many people perished, dying terribly.

However, when it was Chu Feng’s turn, she let out a soft “oh?” and smiled, saying, “How exquisite! So ethereal and fairy-like even at such a young age. What an incredible beauty she’ll be when she grows up. Hmm, excellent. Erase her memories and have her serve as a maid for my twenty-first generation descendant.”

Chu Feng was distracted. After hearing about the Yang World Seed, his emotions surged. He immediately thought of the three seeds on him, items so carefully stored in the stone box, absolutely extraordinary. But he hadn’t imagined they could be even more astounding than he thought.

A true dragon from the most ancient era, an apex being among the first batch of Heaven-Illuminators, the universe’s foremost powerhouse from hundreds of millions of years ago, had actually divined and sought them until its death!

So, he was slightly absent-minded, but to outsiders, he simply looked bewildered, somewhat cute, which made the old woman suddenly smile kindly and pleasantly, greeting him.

“Come here, little girl. Becoming a maid for my direct descendant will certainly not disgrace you. Only girls as ethereal, exquisite, and with such excellent innate potential as you are qualified to follow him. Do you know who he is? Myriad Star Physique Xu Chengxian! He is an invincible physique destined to dominate the star sea in the future!”

The old woman’s face was wreathed in smiles. The emergence of a Myriad Star Physique in her lineage made her smile even in her dreams; she had always been proud of him. That descendant was destined to inherit everything of the Spirit Clan!

Chu Feng finally came back to his senses. He was so angry he wanted to curse. *You old hag, you old stick! What do you want this young master to be? I’m a man!*

He even wanted to shout that Xu Chengxian, that jinx, shouldn't even dream of becoming Dao companions with Qin Luoyin! Chu Feng wanted to say that he was born to restrain the Spirit Clan!

Seeing his displeased expression and his large eyes blinking, the old woman’s smile deepened. “Come to Grandma’s side. We are descendants of gods. By following a god, your future achievements will be immeasurable.”

At the same time, she also threatened, “Do you see these human skins on the ground? They are all pitiful ants, simply because they were too weak.”

Anger flared in Chu Feng’s heart; he was ready to strike!

“Come, child, I’ll take you to see the beast tide riots, to see rivers of blood flowing across this land. We’ll go harvest the fresh blood of these natives. Back then, Grandma and a group of friends trampled this place with our horses, slaughtering countless beings and stirring up endless turmoil. It was truly nostalgic.”

Upon hearing these words, Chu Feng, who had originally wanted to erupt, ultimately walked over, listening to her words. He acted very reserved, his large eyes incredibly clear, looking as pure and simple as a blank sheet of paper.

“Excellent, Grandma likes children like you the most. I feel your innate potential is superb. One day, you will become the left and right arm of my good child,” the old woman said with great satisfaction.

One had to admit, Chu Feng’s appearance was too deceptive: harmless to humans and animals, with pure, crystal-like eyes, coupled with his reluctant and somewhat timid actions.

This was the first time he had utilized his altered physical form.

The next moment, he suddenly attacked. A dark red long blade, like a bolt of lightning, abruptly cut through the void. At such close range, no one could react in time.

With a *poof*, the strike was fierce and accurate, incredibly swift. The red light sliced through the air, causing a massive explosion, and effectively struck the old woman’s body.

“Ah… you!” The old woman was shocked. She had felt no killing intent earlier, nor had she seen through the disguise of this youth.

All she had seen was a simple little girl, but in the end, a blade suddenly erupted and swung violently towards her. In an instant, with blood spurting and sword energy blazing, she was cut in half at the waist!

Blood splattered as her upper and lower body separated!

“Starry Sky Rider, you old butcher, you more than deserve death! You still dare to step onto this land? You came here to pay with your life, to be sacrificed with your blood!”

“And you, old hag, still want to find a maid for your idiotic descendant? Do you know who this young master is? Go to hell, old woman! This young master is a man! Take a closer look, damn it, you infuriated me!”

Although Chu Feng successfully cut the old woman in half at the waist, he was still filled with resentment.
