The Sacred Ruins-Chapter 756 - Divine Seeds Evolve

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

That seed that was currently germinating was considerably unique. It took the shape of a treasured bottle the last time it fell to the ground after it matured. The bottle had star shapes on it and the golden speckles resembled the sun whereas the green specks were crowded together like planets.

It was now budding and broke through the soil. It was actually a dual-colored leaf! It was full of youthful life energy. One was golden like the first hint of sunrise while the other was a pure dark green color and sparkled like chalcedony. Its rhizome was pure white like fine white tallow jade.

It was rapidly growing and brilliant light overflowed from it.

Whoosh, whoosh!

Young shoots were growing at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. The sound it made was like praise to life. Light speckles could be seen as dense life forces swirled around the leaves.

At this moment, a large pile of very high-grade mutant soil was piled up on the ground with the stone box buried within it. Chu Feng had diligently gathered all of this over a long period of time, just like the soil from the Nine Yin Sparrow planet.

What was comparatively more unfortunate was that he simply didn't pay any attention to those mutant soils the last time Uncle Ming and the rest pillaged the Deity and Spirit Race. If not, Chu Feng didn't need to worry about mutant soils in the future.

This was a vine with golden and green leaves with vines that were snow-white. It was growing violently and its entire being dazzled when its final three metres grew into appearance.

"Huh? Flower buds appeared this time without needing to see the splendor of stars and sunrise? It's even going to bloom and bear fruit?" Chu Feng was amazed.

He soon felt at ease. The reason why it needed those components before was most likely because this seed lacked Yang qi. Now that he helped replenished it a little, it wasn't too deficient in Yang qi anymore.

Moreover, the time it needed this time around wasn't that long. Soon, flowers that were as big as a human's face that had green and golden stripes on it started blooming.

Pop!

When the first soft sound could be heard and a field of petals stuck up, it was as though immortal mist was flowing. Pollen sprinkled on the ground and it deeply penetrated one's heart. It made Chu Feng feel agile all throughout and the mist seemed to fill the air all the way into his bones.

His whole body was shining and his body was filled with even stronger vitality every time he took in large breaths!

This surprised him. He had already evolved to the cloudeater realm, yet the pollen this seed released after germinating and blooming was still effective on him?

Soon, he understood that it ought to be due to the mutant soil's exceedingly high quality which caused the seed to germinate. The flower buds formed after it grew was of the ultimate quality too!

Bang!

After that, a soft sound rang out and the whole plant dazzled one's eyes. The flower buds that were initially covered in green and golden stripes blossomed. It was just like a sun the size of a human head. It illuminated the whole cave dwelling and was strongly fragrant.

Subsequently the whole plant's colour changed completely. After the dazzling light shone, it started becoming gentle especially where the flower the size of a human head was located at the top of the plant. It was as though specks of stars covered a vast expanse in the sky and brightened the whole area.

Stamens were densely packed together; all of which were sparkling and translucent specks. It was as though a sea of stars had gathered together and were brilliantly flowing in the cave dwelling, especially when the pollen dispersed. White mist swirled and made that place resemble a starry sky even more.

This was a strange occurrence. It was as though a starry sea as far as the eye could see was slowly swivelling on top of Chu Feng's head.

But he didn't take any of these into consideration. He circulated his Dao Induction breathing technique and took in large breaths. All of the pollen mist were surging towards him.

Almost a year had passed when he finally experienced the joy he felt at that time. There was a certain sense of satisfaction from profiting throughout the process of the divine seed blossoming to the point where it flowered and bore fruit.

Chu Feng's pores relaxed and expanded. In the end, all of the white mist flocked over to him. He was rapidly absorbing the white mist through his breathing and the pores on his skin.

A small region of the starry sea in mid-air made out of pollen light was shaking. In the end, all of it charged into his body. At the same time, a picture scroll appeared; Chu feng used his spirit as the dye whereas his blood and qi formed the paper. The top 100 planets and a good deal of stars appeared.

Bang!

Chu Feng's body violently trembled. He felt as though his muscles, bones, skin, flesh, blood, and spirit had gone through purification. Even the picture scroll he constructed when he was at the carefree realm had been sorted out.

Pop!

The final sound lightly rang out and an extremely dazzling light exploded from the plant once more.

After that, dazzling flowers completely withered like before. The whole plant disintegrated and fell to the ground before turning to dust.

It was only a seed, yet it was like a star as it fell to the ground. The essence of the whole plant was condensed within the seed, making it incomparably plump.

It was as big as a pigeon's egg, yet it was like a miniature version of a planet. Cloud traces covered its surface and it was similar to those stars that appeared earlier on.

Chu Feng didn't pay attention to it; he still circulated his breathing technique and only soared up at the very end. The void buzzed and trembled like gale blowing a piece of paper through the mountain as he unleashed his exquisite technique.

He was very regretful because he felt his body changing. His bones, inner organs, blood, skin and flesh were all solidifying and becoming sturdier and more powerful. For example, his heart was like a blazing sun that supplied energy to him like an endless stream.

Moreover, his spiritual energy increased too, but in the end, he couldn't achieve the fundamental level of evolution. He only made up for the deficiencies that his body originally had.

But Chu Feng didn't feel disappointed because when the seed grew roots and germinated the last time, he was still at the shackled realm. For the flowers and fruits to be of use to him now the next time it bloomed was already very rare.

He felt that the main reason was because the quality of the mutant soil was high enough.

Chu Feng realised that the mutant soil had vastly darkened, but a large chunk was still pure, sparkling and translucent. This made his heart tremble. Maybe the seed could still grow in this kind of soil?

He placed the stone into the stone box again and buried it in the sparkling and translucent five-coloured soil.

The stone box was shut very tightly. From previous experiences, roots wouldn't grow from the seed nor would it germinate with mutant soil alone without the stone box.

Pfft!

A shocking thing happened. This seed really still could grow in this high quality soil.

A wisp of starlight blossomed and burst forth from the pile of soil. After that, a plant resembling a Bodhi grew considerably and it was soon three meters tall.

This time, the speed at which it was growing was not slower than before. In the end, gentle starlight swayed gently and his body was covered in small flower buds; it was no longer a sole flower bud.

"Bodhi?!"

Chu Feng was astounded. It really seemed to turn into the Bodhi Tree this time. What's more, it's colour turned from being a gentle one to that blazed magnificently at a shocking speed.

Woomp!

The whole tree was fragrant as many flower buds blossomed. A strong fragrance assailed Chu Feng's nose and he absorbed the mist that surged toward him.

After that, dazzling holy light erupted from the whole tree. The Bodhi Tree reached a height of twenty meters and the flowers on the whole tree swayed gently. There was a heavy fragrance coming from it and a divine splendor shone gloriously as the flowers sprinkled down.

It was as though Chu Feng could hear the world breathing for a moment. That was the sound of the Dao, the sound of scriptures that symbolised all living things starting to move.

The Bodhi Tree was also called the Wisdom Tree. Chu Feng comprehended that a seed like this defied the natural order far too much. Every transformation it underwent had its purpose and was compatible with the unavoidable path of evolution.

At this moment, his eyes were abstruse. He looked at the tree full of Bodhi Flowers and the gorgeous flapping leaves. It was as though he saw pages of scriptures being flipped over.

He vaguely seemed to see the wings of a Phoenix. Time and space collapsed and stars dried up. He could see time passing and the world fading away. He saw reincarnation and rebirth as well as the great terror from purgatory...

At this moment, Chu Feng saw many things; he saw every manifestation of nature in the world with his endless imagination.

He was lost in thought while his breathing technique was circulating on its one. He finally comprehended what he was thinking in his heart. Under this Bodhi Tree, he could see something when pollen sprinkled down.

This was related to the various objects he visualised at the visualisation realm and closely resembled it too.

"That's right. The plant just now corresponded with my carefree realm whereas the Bodhi Tree corresponded with my visualisation realm this time!"

Chu Feng meditated with rapt attention and swallowed the pollen that resembled immortal mist. His skin turned sparkling and translucent and his five visceras rumbled, unleashing sounds of thunder as he violently trembled.

At the same time, his bones trembled and regrew with much more life and vitality.

Other than that, his flame spirit flourished even more intensely!

Chu Feng still hadn't truly realized the realm's great evolution, but his physique had truly increased. This was beneficial to his former state.

"I've already evolved to the mid-cloudeater realm. If I visualize that the pollen at this level is still effective on me now, this really defies the natural order." He couldn't help but sigh.

In the end, the Bodhi Tree that was twenty meters tall had sublimated as far as it could. All of its flowers fell and all that was left was a flower at the highest point of the tree that was absorbing the essence qi of the whole tree with all its might. Its petals withered and it condensed into a Bodhi Seed with inexhaustible inscriptions carved on its surface as though it was bringing together all living things.

Chu Feng was slightly expectant when he reached this moment. If the seed could continue growing like this all the way, it would soon be effective to him and it could make him evolve again.

A large pile of mutant soil on the ground was still brightly colored. Dense spirit qi filled the air like soil dug out from an immortal mine.

Chu Feng was joyous because he could still plant it again. It appeared as though the mutant soil he had gathered from the outer domain the last time was of bizarrely high grade. After all, it was soil from where Dao was practiced on the Yin Sparrow Race's ancestral planet. To living beings relative to that level, it was very impressive even if it wasn't that rare or precious.

As expected, soil could make that seed grow roots and germinate successfully.

At first, the two leaves on this plant could still be regarded as being ordinary, but after a moment, life and essence qi fiercely gushed out. It was actually resembling a plant less and less.

The two leaves rapidly grew bigger and turned into some raptor's wings. Its whole body was shining brightly and the rhizome beneath it was supplying nutrients to it, encouraging its fierce growth.

In the end, other than its rhizome, the upper half of the plant was a bird that was as tall as a human. It spread its wings with the intent to fly. The pair of wings flourished brilliantly like the sun and its brilliance was dazzling to the eyes.

When the divine sage's aura hit him in the face, there was a surge of battle intent accompanying it too!

There's no flower this time? Chu Feng was stunned.

After that, he remembered the joke from before of wanting to grow the Mysterious Lady of the Nine Heavens. Could it really still come true? A resplendent raptor had grown out of it now.

In the end, the cry of a bird reverberated through the cave-dwelling. It absorbed a wisp of bizarre multicolored sunlight in accordance with the philosophy of nothingness.

This wisp of multicolored light pounced right into Chu Feng's body and merged with his body following the circulation of his breathing technique. He felt a little different as he started transforming and evolving.

As expected, this plant corresponded with the cloudeater realm and increased his mid-cloudeater realm physique once more. He started evolving intensely and a layer of mucus immediately appeared on the surface of his body. That was what little impurities in his body that he excreted along with his bodily fluids.

"You're not blooming anymore, but you're gifting a divine bird to me?!" While Chu Feng was simultaneously evolving, he was quite astonished.

But even though this divine bird was flourishing with life and essence qi, it couldn't move!

Woomp!

The energy in Chu Feng's body boiled and there was even more mucus coming out of his pores. His metabolism was increasing to the point where it was slightly shocking and he was transforming drastically. He was certain that he could evolve to the later stage of the cloudeater realm this time!

One had to know that there was a level of difficulty in evolving when someone was at this level. He never would've thought that he could actually rapidly achieve evolution through this divine seed. His strength was about to increase dramatically!

It was considered beneficial for him to be able to go through such a phase before entering Dameng Pure Land. When the time came, he had confidence in facing the geniuses in the whole universe.

At this moment, that resplendent raptor opened its beak and spat out an object that made Chu Feng's pupils constrict!
