The Sacred Ruins-Chapter 497: Devastatingly Beautiful

Chapter 497: Devastatingly Beautiful

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

The green grass on the island was like a cushion, and fresh, tender flowers hung from the old peach branches, puffing out auspicious red clouds. A warm breeze brushed by and caused the petals to fall down and flicker with a translucent radiance. A sweet fragrance filled the area.

Such an auspicious, peaceful and beautiful island ought to host some refined and intellectual activities, but now it had become grounds for the beating of a cosmic talent.

Yuan Mo was covered in blood from head to toe and was lying beneath an old peach tree.

Zi Luan's small face was deathly white, fearing that it would be her turn to be beaten in the next round. She didn't dare imagine such an image.

Chu Feng had an extremely brilliant smile on his face. Occasionally he would shoot a glance at Lan Shi. He was quite satisfied, but his smile exposed a bit of a demonic nature.

"Fairy Lan, run away! That demon Chu is preparing to attack you!" Someone was warning her from the starry skies.

This small message caused sentiments on the Origin Beast Platform to boil over as soon as it was transmitted.

The people were in an uproar and simply didn't dare to believe it.

In an instant people berated Chu Feng with loud voices and stern expressions, berating him as a maniac.

There were also fragmented evolvers who let out wolf howls and cried out with unparalleled excitement and agitation. They urgently hoped they could see Demon King Chu dare to take his actions too far and capture that universal celebrity.

"That's a disciple of the Heavenly Music of the Pure Land and a rising star in the music industry. She's bound to be popular throughout the heavens, yet he still has the gall!"

"Demon King Chu nature is… truly that of an evil creature. I like him, though. Go ahead and make your move, capture that celebrity who is about to become a universal sensation! I'll enjoy the live stream!"

"Last time I crossed a solar system just to go see Fairy Lan Shi's concert in person, but in the end, the tickets had long since been sold out. I didn't see anything. Today is a treat for the eyes!"

"Demon Chu, you dare blaspheme my goddess? I'll kill you!"

Chu Feng hadn't taken any action yet, but the Origin Beast Platform had already erupted in a bunch of wolf howls. Of course, there were many who scolded him. It was a big mess.

Dancing peach blossoms filled the sky of the island, each one like a sparkling crystal.

Originally, Lan Shi didn't get involved. She was quite detached, and her face was gentle and tranquil. She faced everybody with a gentle smile and was extremely sweet.

However, at this time her complexion changed due to the flicker of the photon computer where she saw many of her acquaintances sending her warnings. She knew what was happening in an instant.

At this stage, she was destined to become a universal celebrity. As soon as she performed, no matter where she went people would come out from all corners of the universe. In terms of socializing, she had been coming and going from saints' residences. She made friends with only people such as the dao sons from the strongest orthodoxies and imperial court descendants.

Thus she paid very close attention to her image. Even if she had to retreat into secrecy in the future, with her universal reputation, she would absolutely have to marry into a rich and powerful family and become the dao partner of a saint's heir.

Now she suddenly heard that the demon standing before her was targeting her. A divine light flashed across the depths of Lan Shi's beautiful pupils!

In actuality, Chu Feng was currently conflicted. Although he had that kind of intention, he couldn't bring himself to set about it. After all, Lan Shi hadn't provoked him yet.

There would've been nothing to say if she were as unruly as Yuan Mo and asked Chu Feng to scram upon meeting. He could just go up there and beat her black and blue.

Yuan Mo still lay dying on the ground, having been beaten to the point where he didn't even look like a person anymore.

Chu Feng's eyes moved swiftly. One moment they were shooting out divine light beams, and the next they were empty. He would also occasionally gaze towards Lan Shi, instantly making everyone think that he was about to attack.

Even Lan Shi had this thought. The occasional ominous glint in this demon's eyes was directed at her and, in her eyes, this was unforgivable.

She possessed a beauty that could captivate the birds and the beasts and an appearance that shamed the moon and flowers. Added to that was her perfect voice that rivaled the sounds of nature. She was destined to quickly become a universal sensation, and her final home would most likely be one of the ten great planets. Either that or she would marry someone like a dao son or the son of a deity. Because of all this, she certainly didn't want to be tainted by Chu Feng and have her reputation smeared.

Afterwards, Lan Shi decided to attack!

Her figure was graceful and her smile was sweet. She could be counted as an outstanding beauty and was viewed as a rare and exceptional beauty throughout the heavens. However, she suddenly went for the kill with a terrifying power.

A dilapidated picture scroll depicting mountains and rivers opened up. In it were large mountains reaching through the clouds, great forceful rivers, dense forests, and a marsh surrounded by clouds and mists.

It transformed into a true scenery and covered Chu Feng, suppressing him.

"Fall, demon!" Lan Shi shouted softly.

In a flash, her blue clothes fluttered, showing off the rising and falling curves of her figure. She became increasingly beautiful as she stood straight in mid-air.

She unveiled her picture scroll. Although half of it was already decayed, the remaining parts still glowed and continued to suppress Chu Feng and take him inside. The scene was terrifying.

The affair developed so fast that it exceeded everyone's expectations. The Demon King Chu Feng hadn't even moved, yet Lan Shi suddenly launched an attack that surprisingly succeeded.

Undoubtedly, Lan Shi's sudden attack and her suppression of Chu Feng would inevitably become a story passed on throughout the heavens. Even demonic son Yuan Mo who could hunt down an entire planet had been beaten black and blue, yet Lan Shi was able to defeat this demon just like that. It was undoubtedly brilliant!

"She is worthy to be called the goddess of my heart! She may look exceptionally alluring, but as soon as she makes a decision, she's firm, resolute, and daring. She unexpectedly captured Demon King Chu!"

"It's too unexpected! Everyone was afraid of the consequences and didn't dare attack, yet Fairy Lan Shi emerged from the crowd and suppressed the demon alone! She's seriously such an exceptional talent!"

The Origin Beast Platform was a mess with noise that reached the heavens.

Some people felt it was a great pity that they hadn't seen Chu Feng capture this woman of peerless elegance and had even been suppressed by her. Originally there had been some people who wanted to bid for this famous singer!

The people who liked Lan Shi were first shocked, then they were in high spirits and excitedly celebrating, proclaiming this as a stroke of genius.

Clearly, that picture scroll was an odd murderous weapon. It could not be brought along a star passage; instead, it had been dug up from a ruin somewhere on Earth.

Unfortunately half of it had been decayed, otherwise, it would possess a power that was truly hard to imagine.

Everyone in the island's peach grove was stunned. Even Yuan Mo was beaten miserably, yet the gorgeous Lan Shi reigned victorious, making everyone cry out in surprise.

Within the picture scroll, Chu Feng was suppressed by a large mountain. The mountain on his back caused every bone in his body to creak and groan.

Hnngh!

He let out a smothered grunt as his whole body lit up. He activated his breathing technique and used his force to try and resist the mountain and throw it off him!

However, an old-fashioned seal was glowing on top of the mountain. In an instant, it increased the pressure rapidly. His flesh was going to be smashed to pieces, and his pores overflowed with blood.

"Rise!"

Chu Feng shouted loudly, and as the breathing technique was activated a white mist spurt from his mouth and nose. His entire body's energy was surging and it was translucent and glowing. Even the hairs on his head were like this.

Bang!

Finally, the mountain exploded, and he rose from the dirt and dust like a demonic god. His eyes shot out beams of fire as he searched for an exit.

Chu Feng felt danger. This was a small world and it was currently shrinking. As soon as it transformed into a picture scroll once again, he would become part of the picture and there would be no way out!

Indeed, there was such a terrifying spatial power. Unfortunately, the picture scroll had been badly damaged and half of it had decayed. The interior was like a landslide and had been destroyed.

Otherwise, as soon as this picture scroll opened, whether it was Chu Feng or some stronger being of the visualization realm, they would all be taken inside and immediately crushed into ashes.

Although it was like this, Chu Feng also suffered a terrifying power. He had been restricted and was about to be set in place.

His fiery eyes searched for an escape route, which he quickly found. Two piercing beams of light shot out from his eyes as he spotted a distant rupture that could serve as an exit.

That was an area where the picture scroll had been decayed and was his only way out.

Were it anyone else who didn't have fiery eyes that possessed the power to see through things, they would have been left behind in the picture scroll and certainly suppressed here, unable to see the exit.

Even though he had discovered an escape route, Chu Feng still faced many imminent dangers. In an instant, the numerous tall mountains reaching into the clouds rose up along with black mist, moving to suppress him.

The pressure was terrifying!

Any of those mountains seemed to be able to pierce the firmament. Each of them indistinctly transformed into simple and unadorned seals!

Chu Feng realized in horror that this mountain, sure enough, had a motive! The interior was engraved with domain symbols. It wasn't just a mountain, it was also a weapon. It was just like an "earth-suppressing seal"!

Undoubtedly, the energy released when this type of giant stamp descended would be enough to kill an evolver of the carefree realm effortlessly.

"Die!"

Chu Feng saw with his fiery eyes that the small world was densely covered in aura-concealing domains and separated from the outside world. Therefore, without any reservations, he put his trump card to use.

This was his first time revealing the world-startling picture scroll that had been created with his own vital blood serving as paper and his spirit serving as ink. The one hundred strongest stars came into view, and the universe was vague and vast. Coupled with his vital breath, it solidified with him to become a single entity.

Boom!

Following Chu Feng's quaking, the exceptional picture scroll opened. It trembled violently as though it would jolt and break all living things into pieces. With a booming sound, it crushed the suppressing mountains into a fine powder.

Chu Feng dashed over. Alongside him was a rushing river of energy. It attacked him, but as soon as the peerless picture scroll opened, the river dried up!

There was a marsh that wanted to trap him. In the end, the hundred stars shook and the giant pond was annihilated!

Chu Feng moved as fast as lightning. Since he had just studied the World's End Near at Hand, he was able to move through the dense forest at an unimaginable speed. He rushed through and emerged from the decayed section of the picture scroll!

The next moment, all of the mountains and rivers shrunk and once again condensed into a picture scroll. It had been a close call—had he been one step slower, Chu Feng would have become a part of the picture scroll's scenery.

At that time he would have become meat on a chopping block, and his life would be in the hands of another.

Bang!

Chu Feng reached out and grabbed this old-fashioned picture scroll that dropped from mid-air. His black hair danced in the wind, and a cold lightning burst from his eyes.

The entire island was silent.

Originally, sentiments on the Origin Beast Platform had still been boiling over, but now it became tranquil. Chu Feng had escaped without a single hair on his head being harmed. This really exceeded everyone's expectations!

Lan Shi stood in the distance, vigilant. When she pulled out the picture scroll, she had made all kinds of preparations. If she succeeded, then she could take the picture scroll and leave. If she failed, then she could easily retreat.

Once she saw that Chu Feng had indeed escaped, a scroll in her hand began to glow. It transformed into a splendid multicolored light and enveloped her. It was just like she had ascended to heaven to become immortal, and she was on the verge of disappearing in a blink.

This was a scroll from the distant past and was classified as an "evasion device". It could ignore space and take a person to a distant place thousands of kilometers away, even taking them back into space.

"Suppress!"

Chu Feng shouted as he opened the decayed picture scroll in his hand. It abruptly moved and covered the heavens, ready to take Lan Shi inside.

"You dare!" There was a cold shout coming deep from within the heavens. Unfortunately, the distance was too great, and their threats were useless.

"You also dare to suppress a woman who the young deity fancies. You're courting death!"

An Origin Beast Platform member with a gold account threatened and berated Chu Feng.

It was still useless though. One couldn't say that Chu Feng just didn't take notice of it; even at the first time he learned of it, he still ignored it. No matter what, he would still attack as needed.

Boom!

The decayed picture scroll covered the sky and submerged the area.

However, the ancient scroll was also extremely astonishing. Its multicolored light was torrential and its magnificence was terrifying. It formed a concentrated array of domain symbols that wrapped around Lan Shi's body. With great effort she struggled to break free, wanting to get far away.

Other people could no longer see the unusual domain runes contained by the two ancient weapons. They disturbed the heaven and earth, and even the monitoring of heaven's eye from the outer realm lost its effectiveness.

Only Chu Feng, who was close up and had the fiery eyes, could see clearly.

Woosh woosh woosh...

The half-decayed picture scroll that possessed an astonishing swallowing power was about to suck Lan Shi inside, glowing and struggling. In the end, Lan Shi's clothes and hairpins were all sucked into the picture scroll.

Following that, all of the miscellaneous items on her body were sucked in, followed by her undergarments.

Chu Feng was dumbstruck. Ahead of him was a big white sheep enveloped by the splendid light of the scroll, without a single silken thread on her body and all snow white. All of her clothes had been stripped away by the decayed scroll.

Her body looked as though it had been carved from ivory. She was snow white and translucent with curves that dipped and rose. She was especially perfect. Even though her back was to Chu Feng, he could still see the rising and falling lines.

Chu Feng was not the least bit kind or honest as at this kind of moment. He gave his assessment and said, "Now THIS is a devastatingly beautiful woman. She's even more beautiful when she's not wearing clothes!"
