Chu Feng and some of the great Kunlun demons had returned, while others, including his parents, were still in space. After all, Yao Yao had issued a warning before her disappearance, which they could not afford to ignore.
Chu Feng flew down from space, landing at the foot of the Taihang Mountains in the north and entering Qingyang Town, his hometown. The spiritual energy was noticeably several times richer. The plants in town were vibrant, their leaves emitting a faint green glow, and more than half of the residents had become extraordinary beings. This was because ordinary exotic fruits were no longer scarce in the fields and mountains, and many ordinary people who consumed them had begun their path to evolution. Furthermore, the changes in the world were now accelerating. All fruits, vegetables, and grains were different from before, and long-term consumption could significantly improve one's physique.
In the distance, the majestic Taihang Mountains towered into the clouds, and with the revival of spiritual energy, the entire range had become even more magnificent. From a distance, silver waterfalls cascaded down from thousands of feet high, resembling roaring silver dragons, while ethereal mist rose, creating a truly spectacular sight. Simultaneously, the cries of apes and the roars of tigers could be heard, while raptors dozens of meters long streaked across the sky, and giant beasts appeared and disappeared within the mountains. In some areas and mountain forests, there were numerous millstone-sized toads and meter-long golden centipedes, making these places a paradise for venomous creatures. Fortunately, they were contained within folded spaces, visible but unable to emerge for the time being.
"This world values balance," Chu Feng said. "The Earth's will is reviving, and it seems to be deliberately controlling things. Until ordinary people evolve to be strong enough, the folded spaces cannot fully merge with Earth's main space, preventing fierce birds, beasts, and venomous creatures from entering." Chu Feng felt slightly relieved.
The yellow ox gazed at the distant Taihang Mountains, lost in thought. It had originally come from the starry path behind this mountain range, where it had met Chu Feng and Zhou Quan.
The small town remained unchanged, having suffered no destruction, though many people were missing. There had been a period when ice and snow covered the sky; that exceptionally cold winter saw the global population decrease by over thirty percent, with no region spared.
"Little Feng!" Uncle Liu stood at the entrance of his general store. His physique was remarkably robust; compared to before, he seemed like a different person, his hair no longer gray, as if he had returned to his middle age.
"Uncle Liu!" Chu Feng hurried over. He returned because he had a premonition that he might soon embark on a distant journey and feared he might never see them again in this life. This feeling prompted him to revisit and see old acquaintances.
The yellow ox also approached. Its "high-end, atmospheric, and classy" communicator had originally been chosen by Chu Feng from Uncle Liu's store, though it was later proven that Chu Feng had tricked it, as it was a discarded item from many years ago.
In an instant, a large man with short, bristly hair, black and shiny like steel needles, rushed over. This was Old Master Zhao from the cold weapon workshop, who had once given his ancestral Great Thunder Sound Bow to Chu Feng.
"Old Master Zhao, have you become young again?!" Chu Feng teased.
Old Master Zhao, a tough man, was now uncharacteristically embarrassed. Uncle Liu explained that Old Master Zhao now had another young son, even younger than his grandson.
"Congratulations, Old Master Zhao, haha!" Chu Feng laughed heartily.
"You little rascal, still daring to mock me!" Old Master Zhao retorted, showing no restraint despite Chu Feng's advanced evolutionary level.
The town was abuzz, as information was now highly developed. Many knew that Chu Feng could travel into space and were even aware of his achievements in the outer regions. As soon as Chu Feng returned to his two-story house, he was immediately surrounded by the town's residents; he couldn't stay there. He could only discreetly give some exotic fruits to Uncle Liu and Old Master Zhao before quickly leaving.
Afterward, Chu Feng entered Shuntian City, the largest city in the north. Soon after, he met with Old Man Lu Tong at Jade Pure Palace, one of the three major extraordinary organizations. Yuan, the master of Jade Pure Palace, had repeatedly targeted Chu Feng and was eventually killed by him in Daye Marsh in Shandong. Afterward, relevant parties invited Lu Tong to emerge and take control of Jade Pure Palace.
"There's nothing much to say," the old man said. "I'll treat you to a drink, and then I'll help you evolve. Right now, the one thing we're not lacking is exotic fruits."
Chu Feng gazed at Shuntian City. Numerous large mountains outside the city were almost connected to this modern metropolis, and with various giant beasts and raptors roaming, the scenery was quite magnificent for those with strength. Clairvoyant Du Huaijin, Clairaudient Ouyang Qing, and Ye Qingrou also arrived. During the fierce battle at the Great Abyss, they had cheered and rallied alongside the yellow ox, expressing their desire to join the battle in the outer regions, though the yellow ox had not allowed them to go.
The group gathered and drank heavily. As they became slightly tipsy, any initial unfamiliarity caused by differences in time, space, and power dissipated, and everyone completely relaxed.
"Chu Feng, I never imagined you'd already fought your way into space while we're still stuck on Earth. It's too surreal," Du Huaijin slurred.
"Don't worry, I'll give you exotic fruits later, and you'll all be able to improve further," Chu Feng said, patting his shoulder.
"You're back this time, you're not going to stir up another big commotion, are you?" Old Man Lu Tong, who knew Chu Feng well, asked.
"Yes, I'm going to revive all the famous mountains and great rivers!" Chu Feng replied. This instantly sobered up the group.
"Come with me," Chu Feng invited, hoping to give any extraordinary treasures that might emerge during the revival of the famous mountains to his friends. Similarly, seeing these people again, Chu Feng felt a pang in his heart, an inexplicable premonition that they might not meet again for a long time, perhaps even that this could be their last reunion, their final farewell in this life. This sudden premonition, this inexplicable realization, made his heart tremble.
After the meal, Chu Feng immediately set out, accompanied by a group of great Kunlun demons, Old Man Lu Tong, and others. On the way, he communicated with the Demon Ancestor's Cauldron, asking when they would travel to the alien realm.
"Wait until I digest this energy and deduce a suitable day," the Demon Ancestor's Cauldron replied.
"Still need to deduce?!" Chu Feng was truly anxious, fearing that the little Vermilion Bird in the alien realm might become an old one; if they arrived too late, it would be terrible.
"Do you think connecting two realms is that easy? Each time it nearly takes my old life!" the Demon Ancestor's Cauldron said, displeased. It also warned Chu Feng that recklessly opening it could bring a large amount of strange substances from that realm; it was better to be careful and choose a special and safe time node.
Upon hearing this, Chu Feng nodded solemnly. Although he wanted to save the little Vermilion Bird and bring it over sooner, he knew he couldn't be too impulsive or careless.
"Chu Feng, how do you plan to revive the famous mountains?" Lu Tong asked. Earth was already in the process of revival; what other methods could he possibly use to accelerate it?
"Oh, my dears, just wait and witness the miracle," the old donkey chimed in. "We've emptied out places like the Celestial Race, Xilin Race, and Netherworld Race. If that still can't intensely revive Earth, then Chu Feng, as a grandmaster of domain, would be too ashamed." The old donkey looked smug, as if he were about to display his heaven-reaching abilities.
"Is this the donkey demon who stripped the outer-realm saints of their underwear and socks?" Du Huaijin remarked.
"How dare you speak like that!" the old donkey's face twitched. This dark history was well-known on Earth and could not be concealed.
"Let's start with the Taihang Mountains," Chu Feng said. He then took out dozens, even hundreds, of spatial bracelets, opened them all, and with a roaring sound, poured out vast amounts of exotic soil, scattering it across the mountains and rivers. Simultaneously, he used his domain methods to open ancient sealed lands, causing the spiritual energy in the Taihang Mountains to surge dramatically. Billions of auspicious rays of light appeared, shocking the creatures in the mountains and nearby residents. It was truly like the revival of an immortal mountain!
