The Sacred Ruins-Chapter 736 - Earth’s Ranking Restored

Several fuzzy figures emerged in the space outside Earth, each with a terrifying aura. As their eyes opened, they reflected images of the fall of the sun and moon, and of the collapse of the starry skies.

As gods, they were ancient existences whom various races across the universe worshiped on their altars. They were veteran heaven-illuminators!

The sagemaster was right. Those who were defeated were unreconciled and unsatisfied. It was unexpected that they would suffer a crushing defeat when facing a monster who had lost his bearings. Their blood splashed throughout the starry skies, and they had lost their helmets and armor. And so they wanted to come back and have a look.

These people were all top-notch experts, some of which were even old antiques and living fossils who had lived for many years. They obviously knew Yaoyao’s grandfather wasn’t in a normal state. There might be strong after effects, and perhaps they have finally waited for their opportunity.

The sagemaster could sense this but was fearless.At this stage, Yaoyao’s grandfather had woken and he too had found medicine to extend his life. If they were to be truly ruthless, they could totally put their all into the fight!

Though they still couldn’t directly oppose all of their enemies from back then, none of the orthodoxies could handle them if they visited them on the sly!

The only pity was that Yaoyao’s grandfather was out of his senses. This was the biggest drawback.

“Would the Deity Race be forced out of the Top Ten?” The sagemaster smiled gently. Now, he pushed aside the magnetic fields and clouds near Mount Zhijin using his hand and looked toward the outer realms.

The demeanors of those in the outer realms shifted as they saw his nonchalant attitude.

Some were happy, while others mourned the death of their kind. They were worried that their race would be the next one to be injured. After all, they were cruel toward Earth back then.

“Sagemaster, you’re so confident. Aren’t you worried that I’ll destroy your home planet with a slap and wipe out all of the creatures here!?”

An elder began to speak. He was hiding in the primal chaos, but his eyes were terrifying and simmering like lava with an insistent blaze. They illuminated the outer realms and were tremendously large!

This astonished people as the eyeballs were comparable to the Earth.

The sagemaster spoke quietly and said, “Do you dare ruin the purgatory on this planet? Try it if you really have the courage to do so. Back then, there were people who wanted to blow the Earth up, but in the end, didn’t they all run away?”

As these words came out, the outer realms were silent. If the purgatory on Earth was really blown up once again, who knew what would happen. Back then, there had been great issues arising.

Some great heaven-illuminators had almost perished due to these issues.

However, in those days, they had stopped in time and discontinued their actions.

The sagemaster spoke once again and said, “You dare to threaten me, but in reality, you’re reminding me and peeving us. When we turn around, we’ll go to the planet you’re on and destroy your foundations and blow your home planet up. Let’s see if you dare be so arrogant again!”

An old geezer from the Netherworld Race also came riding on a skeletal dragon. His body became rigid after hearing these words and his race was the most concerned.

In those days, the Netherworld Race was one of the main armies. If they were now to seek revenge, they would definitely bear the brunt.

As for the Deity Race their foundations were profound and they possessed what was known as the top ten weapons in the universe. If they were truly to give their all, they would probably be very terrifying.

The old freak from the Netherworld Race looked gloomy. He said, “Yi Chen, if you act carelessly, I don’t mind fighting as if my life depended on it. I won’t hesitate even if the purgatory retributes me from blowing this planet up!”

“We’ll visit each and every one of those who threaten this planet, and one day, we’ll pay back all the old debts,” the sagemaster responded calmly.

This simple interaction shocked the top-notch experts in the outer realms. The sagemaster’s tender lesson and threat was also a way of negotiation aimed at everyone.

Big shots from various sides were all fearful with some rather worried.

No one could have thought that the once eliminated planet from the old war was now so powerful that a monster had emerged. The sagemaster had also survived through difficult times and now illuminated the heavens. This dazed the hearts of those in the outer realms.

In particular, today’s battle was destined to have serious effects and would rewrite the layout of some influences!

People could tell that the sagemaster’s words just then were meaningful. They weren’t said casually, and he wasn’t threatening nonchalantly. In fact, his statement that the Deity Race would drop out of the Top Ten was reminding everyone else, and as a result, a bloody storm could unfold!

This was because it would be an absolutely horrifying matter if someone did drop from the Top Ten. Would the veteran orthodoxies and those highly ranked dispatch their troops at this crucial moment and carve up the Deity Race!?

Without a doubt, communities who were once in the Top Ten had excessively ample stores of worldly materials, treasures, and cultivation resources. Everyone was envious.

Some communities would unlikely be able to protect the divine medicines and supreme scriptures they possessed if they suddenly declined in one night and if there was a mismatch between their power and the starry regions they controlled. Others could massacre them and seize everything!

“Everyone, a storm is coming. Are you prepared?”

The sagemaster played it down again with a sentence. Before, people might have belittled him without caring, but now, they were cautious as they thought of how serious the issue was.

The situation of some communities would shift after today’s battle.

The Spirit Race was an example. Would they still have heaven illuminators after the death of their old ancestor?

The Deity Race, for example, did have another expert after the Great Deity died. But he was beaten up a few months ago by the sagemaster in that battle, and his state had fallen. Had he already recovered? If they didn’t have another fierce old monster defending them, then the tigers would probably focus on them!

In fact, the universe couldn’t remain still at this moment. Various orthodoxies were debating on several great platforms, and they were discussing about the rankings of the races within the universe!

Today’s battle was indeed too unexpected. Many evolvers knew that the rankings of some of the great races were going to change.

“Could the Netherworld Race still be ranked eleventh? Surely, they will fall. Would their position be returned to the descendents of the evolvers on the ancient Earth!?”

This was a hot topic and numerous people were in dispute.

“Everyone, I think the Deity Race have it the hardest. They could be carved up by the Dao Race, the Origin Demon Race, and the Demon Race. If by any chance the Quasi-Immortal Race and the Buddhist Race attack them, too, they’ll definitely encounter a race extermination calamity!”

This kind of topic inevitably led to a stir!

“The Spirit Race will definitely be stunned. Who told them to be so flashy! In the end, the Spirit Ancestor’s body and soul were destroyed. Nevermind the ranking, they most likely won’t even have a foothold in the top 100!”

It was at this moment that many people believed that even though the Earth was recovering, experts were bound to descent after this ordeal.

The sagemaster had doubtlessly extended his life and could live on, while Yaoyao’s grandfather had emerged by accident. Their attack power was unimaginably high!

Some reckoned that most conservatively, the Earth could return to its place in the top couple of dozens!

Points would be taken away because it was unsure how long the sagemaster’s life could be extended for, as well as Yaoyao’s grandfather’s lost of sense. It was unclear whether or not he would come round.

Were it not for this, their ranking would be even higher!

Indeed, soon after, rating institutions from the Black Blood, Wormhole Express, and other of the most veteran magnates gave the Earth new positions and raised its ranking.

At their initial judgement, the Earth could be ranked within the top 50.

Their considerations were rather comprehensive. After all, the Earth’s history was divided into periods and was lacking mid-range evolvers. At the peak of the pyramids were two ancient experts whose lives were unstable, yet below them they were missing many core forces from many periods.

This created a huge sensation!

“The ancient Earth is recovering and rising up from defeat. Their ranking is returning!”

This became a heated subject.

Although they weren’t ranked eleventh yet, it was remarkable for them to appear in the ranking tables and return to their position again. It was heaven-defying, especially since it happened overnight.

People were also waiting to see if the Deity Race, the Netherworld Race, and the Spirit Race would drop in ranking or not. There were old frightening ‘hunters’ who were quietly waiting for their crisis to appear!

“Roar!”

Suddenly, commotion came from within the depths of the Earth’s core. The iron chains in the small world rang incessantly. Something was wrong with Yaoyao’s grandfather, and he was trying to struggle free.

The formidable sagemaster’s countenance shifted and he could no longer remain tranquil!

Yaoyao was too matchlessly concerned and was afraid that problems arose in her grandfather. She had only just seen him, and she couldn’t handle it if there were any mishaps.

“It’s alright. The old man already defies the natural order. He won’t be in danger,” Chu Feng consoled her quietly.

The sagemaster opened his mouth and said, “We’re not worried about the old man. The numbers of his vital statistics are so high its ridiculous. I’m afraid he can’t control himself, which will affect the Earth.”

Whoosh!

The next moment the sagemaster, Yaoyao, and Chu Feng charged into the depths of the Earth’s core.

The crowd of great demons crawled up in front of Mount Zhijin too. Although they were showing their teeth ,they were also wearing grave expressions in fear that an accident would happen after Yaoyao’s grandfather came out. At the present, it was important that nothing happened to the old man.

Otherwise, the vicious tigers in the outer realms, who were in waiting, could divide and consume them!

Ka-cha!

The old coffin underground burst open and Yaoyao’s grandfather charged out with scarlet eyes. At the same time, he knocked over the bronze coffin the sagemaster had left here.

He roared in a low voice and rushed out of the small world!

The sagemaster had a headache and his face was pale as Yaoyao’s grandfather became manic once he reached the surface. He reckoned not many people were left.

He was considering whether or not to use his domain methods to first send Yaoyao’s grandfather away. But doing this, they could get attacked by the experts in the outer realms. Then a battle of life and death would be unavoidable! He thought that the old man wasn’t in great condition and could be in danger.

“Grandpa, wake up!” Yaoyao called with emotion again and again.

At last, her grandfather’s figure stopped and the bloody glimmer in his eyes dimmed considerably. Radiance shone from deep inside his eyes, flickering as it replaced the ferocious scarlet glimmer.

“My granddaughter, Yaoyao…” He bellowed, but in the end, he rushed out of the small world with force and charged outward.

The sagemaster was shocked because this time, he was unhindered. His domains had failed, and Yaoyao’s grandfather charged past. The sagemaster was worried that a great calamity would occur outside so he chased after him.

Naturally, Yaoyao and Chu Feng quickly reached the surface following them.

“Where are they?”

“Kunlun. They’re rushing in the direction for Kunlun!” The big black yak, Ouyang Feng, and the others felt fear and trepidation in the face of disaster. Just then, it had been too terrifying. The aura had made them shiver, and they felt as though they were almost blasted open.

Chu Feng sighed a long sigh. Yaoyao’s grandfather wasn’t completely lost and knew how to control his own energy waves. Otherwise, many would’ve been killed if he was let loose.

“What is he doing going to Kunlun?” Ouyang Feng murmured.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…

Yaoyao and Chu Feng rushed toward Kunlun. At the same time, the great demons crashed their way through with them.

In the other realms, someone laughed in expectation.

For someone as strong as they were, they could naturally see what was going on the ground. Hearing Yaoyao’s grandfather’s roar, they knew his body was in terrible condition.

“Let him run wild. Let’s hope that there’ll be a chance to kill him!” someone said.

At this moment, there were more and more supreme experts in the outer realms. They had a feeling that this time was an opportunity hard to come by!

A scarlet red sword twinkled. Even the old Sky-Piercer ancestor, who was dying and seriously hurt with just his head remaining, had arrived. He was reborn from a drop of blood and his body had recovered, but his vigor was already greatly damaged. With a murderous treasure in hand, he was hiding in secret, waiting for his opportunity.

Needless to say, experts from the other races were also doing so!

At Kunlun, Yaoyao’s grandfather charged straight toward the ‘Hell’s Gates’. Thunderbolts often struck this extremely weird area.

At first, when Chu Feng had approached Mount Kunlu,n the Zhijin Woodpecker King had tricked him into the gates of Hell and he had experienced the thunderbolt attacks.

Afterward, when Chu Feng escaped from a spatial crack, he had discovered that one of the exits was connected to the gates of Hell.

Now, Yaoyao’s grandfather charged headfirst into the gates of Hell and dashed into the underground. The sagemaster frowned at this as he knew what kind of place it was, so he followed.

After Yaoyao and Chu Feng arrived here, they too followed them and came in after trailing their auras.

Of course, Chu Feng’s guess was right. Yaoyao’s grandfather was going along the road and charging toward an old mining hole, which was connected to the purgatory!

Chu Feng’s countenance shifted as the old mining hole was terribly scary. He was heavily tortured when he was walking through earlier.

However, he felt that Yaoyao’s grandfather was certainly unafraid of those ghosts. He had no fear of strange and inauspicious things, but if the old man charged in this way, he would directly reach the purgatory. Who knows what would happen then!

Even now, Chu Feng still didn’t understand the secrets of the purgatory. He was sure there were many horrifying areas he hadn’t discovered.

Jiu, jiu, jiu…

The voice of ghosts started sounding. Then the sound of footsteps and cries came from within the old mining hole.

“Ah, remarkable. There’s definitely something unimaginable held within this area!” The sagemaster found a big problem.

“Roar!”

Yaoyao’s grandfather went in and broke into the old hole. His roar shook the age-old and unusual mine and those ghost voices disappeared.

“Give me… the medicine for immortality. I need to save Yaoyao!”

The old man bellowed. His voice was unclear, but that was what he meant. Had he ran here to seek the medicine for immortality!?

Chu Feng was startled and Yaoyao’s grandfather’s origins came to his mind. He was from the Yang Realm and didn’t belong to this part of the universe. Perhaps he knew the purgatory’s ultimate secret.

In fact, Chu Feng had been suspecting all along that one had to pass through the path of reincarnation in the purgatory in order to enter the Yang Realm. Regardless of whether it was reincarnation or another method, it was likely related to the end of the path of reincarnation.

Now, Yaoyao’s grandfather had ran here roaring. Was he asking for the medicine of immortality from another existence? Chu Feng’s mind was shaken and he felt shocked.
