The Sacred Ruins-Chapter 770 - Mutant Technique

Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng were at least more than five hundred meters away from the bloody mountain peak. The scenery they saw on the way made them frown. There were many caves in the ground with ten thousand people buried in it. There was a very strong smell of rotting.

A few life forms were having an awfully bloody fight along the way. They even saw Quasi-saints crossing by in the sky; that was a bat chasing after a golden flying elephant. The scene was incomparably brutal. They were both Quasi-saints, but the bat was absolutely on the winning end.

They didn’t see the final outcome of the battle because the blood qi coming from beings at that level was too terrifying. It was as though god-ranked flames were burning fiercely. Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng couldn’t bear it any longer and didn’t dare to get close.

They were very startled. The life forms in this world seemed to be very powerful, so as Yin spirits, their life was in danger at every turn.

“There’s something wrong with the direction we’re headed in. There are too many powerhouses. Most of them are life forms at the later stages of the golden body realm. Let’s change directions!”

If they were all at this level, they had no need to tarry because it would be better for them to return to Dameng Pure Land immediately and forget about it. It could be said that there was no hope for them in the slightest if they continued on.

Lead clouds densely covered the sky and they would split open once in a while, causing a vast stretch of blood-coloured light to sprinkle down on the earth like the glow of the setting sun.

The ground reeked of blood as the living creatures fought fearsomely at close quarters. A large area of black mist emerged from the many holes in the ground.

After the duo changed directions, they realized that the tyrannical life forms had decreased and the whole region was much quieter.

Squeak, squeak, squeak…

Some ear-piercing sounds came from up ahead.

This region lacked vegetation. It resembled a desolate wasteland with its many stones and dried up rivers.

Ouyang Feng rubbed his fists and wiped his palms together as he said, “We finally encountered weak life forms. Let’s capture one and interrogate it for that kind of mutant technique. Later on, we’ll try it out in this world too and if it’s effective, we might be able to become spiritual saints in this world!”

He saw a few life forms resembling mice, but they were very large and were as big as wild boars. Their snow-white teeth were extremely sharp and had bright purple fur with eyes that were bright and full of expression.

Four purple mice attacked a brown vulture. Their movements were extremely quick and they resembled four rays of purple lightning violently shooting out in the sky. Large blood flowers bloomed every time they attacked.

That vulture let out a blood-curdling screech as the mice kept tearing at its wings and flesh.

These purple mice had very strong flying capabilities and moved swiftly. Even if their enemy was a flying vulture, it would still be caught up in their ambush ring and be at an impasse.

“Those mice are all at the visualization realm!” muttered Ouyang Feng. He was at this realm a few months ago and had only advanced by leaps and bounds recently to become an evolver at the mid-cloudeater realm.

Ultimately, a purple mouse opened its mouth and bit off the vulture’s throat. It let out a mournful cry before it fell to the ground and died a violent death.

Chu Feng’s emotions were stirred. Even if they were like mice, they were proficient in killing techniques, too. They were well-coordinated with one another and he unexpectedly saw some indication of divine beat martial arts being utilised.

He confirmed this with Ouyang Feng.

Toad nodded and said, “That’s right. There’s certainly some indication of the divine beast martial arts. These mice are really impressive!”

After that, the four purple mice the size of wild boars fell to the ground. They shone as they activated some kind of secret technique and swelled up. After that, a few specks of light flew out from the insides of the vulture’s body that was on the ground. They rapidly absorbed what looked like some kind of special substance.

“Just like I thought. The life forms in this world have cultivated some mutant technique. Let’s capture them now and interrogate them for this kind of cultivation technique!”

“Youngsters, crawl over and pay your respects to the Divine King!”

Ouyang Feng was self-assured. As a soul, he emitted a faint light. He took graceful swan strides as he slowly walked over with the turtle shell on his back and hands turned palms up.

Ever since he entered this world, he had suffered heavy blows. He first fled for his life with much difficulty from under the dangerous tyrannosaurus’ mouth. After that, he watched monsters flaunt their viciousness one after the other and even discovered Quasi-saints contending for hegemony. All of this didn’t make Ouyang Feng angry because he had been trembling with fear.

Now, he finally saw a few life forms that were weaker than him. Ouyang Feng’s spirit trembled with excitement as he looked at the four purple mice from the corner of his eye and adopted an arrogant stance.

Squeak, squeak!

Four purple mice bared their teeth and pounced over on their own accord immediately . They were really too warlike!

“Are you courting death?!” Ouyang Feng was calm and unruffled in the midst of chaos. He stretched his hand out to grab and imprison a mouse.

Squeak, squeak!

An ear-piercing cry rang out as the purple mouse the size of a wild boar screeched as though it had gone mad and caused the ground to shake.

“Screech as much as you want until your throat breaks because it’s useless for you to do so!” Ouyang Feng chuckled mischievously and looked very wretched as he picked the purple mouse.

No matter how one looked at him, he looked like a great villain with this sort of stance.

“God can’t even save you now!” Ouyang Feng was lofty as he put on airs like he had grasped the vicissitudes and everything else in the world in his hands.

But Chu Feng’s scalp went numb and he stabbed Ouyang Feng’s waist.

“Don’t mess about! I’m extorting a confession from this mouse and intend to acquire an exceptional mutant technique so that I can abruptly rise above all from now on,” said Ouyang Feng. After that, his voice came to a grunting halt. He sensed it too and he suddenly raised his head. His face immediately turned green in a flash.

Countless pairs of verdant eyes appeared as purple mice squirmed out of the cracks in the ground in the distance one after another. There was an ample amount of shadows spanning further than the eye could see.

This was just like an ocean of mice. They were packed densely together, and there were simply too many of them to count.

Ouyang Feng’s face stiffened and he put on a fake smile as he said, “Fellow elder and younger mouse brothers, I think there’s a slight misunderstanding here. Let’s talk about it. A gentleman uses his mouth and not his fist. Come, let’s sit down and have a chat.”

“Little mouse brother, please, quickly sit down. I was only joking with you just now. Let us both have a slow chat.” Ouyang Feng gently let go of the purple mouse he had captured.

“Why are you spouting nonsense? Let’s flee!”

Chu Feng made a move and kicked four purple mice away in his spiritual state, but he didn’t kill them for fear that this group of mice would go mad. He pulled Ouyang Feng and ran.

Squeak, squeak, squeak…

Ear-piercing screeches linked with one another like a landslide and a tsunami. Countless mice were charging out from the hole in the ground. Some even had the blood plasmas of decayed corpses on the corner of their mouths. It was extremely sinister!

“Capture them! The two Yin spirits are very strange. They ought to be ghosts from some foreign country or city. Capture them and interrogate them for details!”

In the midst of the squeaking coming from the back, all of the mice started pursuing them. Some were running on the ground like ferocious lions whereas others were flying in the sky in groups.

Ouyang Feng, who had a contemptuous attitude before because he thought that this group of mice were very weak, was completely terrified now. This was a mouse tide! There were too many of them! If he really were to get stuck in it, he would die beyond a shred of a doubt.

To their surprise, they realized that there were many purple mice at the visualization realm and there was a considerable portion of those at the cloudeater realm. The ground was full mouse shadows.

It was no wonder that this region was very silent because it was being governed by this pack of mice.

Squeak, squeak…

At this moment, green light violently shot out from all the mice’s eyes. They turned into feathered arrows that hid the sky and covered the earth before shooting forth.

“Where is the natural order of things behind this? The light from the mice’s eyes condensed into light arrows!” Ouyang Feng cried out as an arrow shot his but. Fortunately, he was a spiritual body. If not, he reckoned he would be dripping with blood and a hole would open up on his butt.

“Squeak, squeak!”

After that, the mouse at the rear end of the tide kept screeching without end. The blood qi of countless purple mice surged up and was unexpectedly more terrifying than that of the silver tyrannosaurus’ after all of them came together. Blood qi overflowed from the sky as it engulfed and suppressed the sky and earth.

Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng sensed that the rear mouse’s masculine blood qi was too terrifying. Even their spiritual forms had been suppressed to the point where their bodies almost collapsed.

“Let’s go!”

On the whole, they were sufficiently quick because if they were even a fraction too slow, they would have undoubtedly died and exploded under the pressure of that blood qi.

“They’re such bullies!” Ouyang Feng sat on a rock and while his anger was not appeased, he said, “Grandfather Ouyang is a divine beast, yet mice have actually bullied me! Where is the logic in that?!”

After an hour, they quietly commenced their operation. They grabbed a purple mouse who was left alone and didn’t alarm the mouse tide. After that, they exhausted what they were capable of and flew as far away as they could from that region.

These two people forced a confession from this mouse together and searched the spirit light ball in this mouse’s head. From there, there understood many things.

This place bordered the Vicious Beast Plateau and was considered to be an extremely overgrown region. It was considered to be relatively tranquil and wasn’t that dangerous.

Unfortunately, this mouse’s realm was too low so it didn’t understand much.

But the bits of information Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng found out from the mouse was enough to shock them because the evolvers in that Vicious Beast Plateau were incomparably terrifying.

According to the mouse, all of the fully grown divine beasts that rashly burst into the Vicious Beast Plateau would perish. There were a few old tyrants in the depths of the plateau who were extremely ancient which made them an enigma and impossible to predict!

Ouyang Feng didn’t look that good. Even mature divine beasts were killed?

Chu Feng was stirred as well. In the pond universe they were at, once a divine beast matured, they were evolvers at the heavenly-illumination realm at the very least!

Moreover, the universe he was at was considered to be the Yin realm that had various incomplete breathing techniques. As such, it was very difficult for life forms to achieve the extent that those powerhouses from the Yang realm could.

What about this place? Was the world and evolutionary system sufficiently complete? How powerful were the divine beasts?

In any case, they were definitely very powerful and terrifying since mature divine beasts would still perish upon entering the depths of the Vicious Beast Plateau!

This was slightly terrifying upon closer consideration!

“There’s even greater power even further out. Is there a city? Do they have humans and evolutionary sects?” Chu Feng inquired about other matters.

This mouse was somewhat at a loss. It had always lived here and didn’t know what was going on in the outside realm at all.

After that, Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng had their wish fulfilled as they obtained a kind of mutant technique that was similar to the breathing techniques. They could absorb substances within an organism that could advance their evolution!

“It seems as though we’re absorbing the source of life energy, but reality says otherwise. We’re extracting some kind of unique substance that can advance our evolution!”

This was the result of Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng’s analysis. After all, one had mastered the Robbery Induction breathing technique, while the other was cultivating the Divine Beast breathing technique so they had an extremely high foothold and were at the summit of the pyramid in the universe they belonged to. The scope of their world far exceeded that of the normal person.

This purple mouse only stemmed from a race that was instinctively using their inherited mutant technique and had never considered the essence and outcome of said mutant technique.

After that, Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng brainwashed this purple mouse and removed part of its memory before releasing it.

The two of them stared at the mouse and watched it attentively as it returned to where the Mouse Race resided. They stared at the the mice secretly and watched them hunt.

This was close to the Vicious Beast Plateau. The Mouse Race had no shortage of food because vultures and mutant beasts flew by from time to time.

Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng observed them for a few more hours and looked at their prey. The duo was eager to give it a try after they verified that there was no problem with the mice using the kind of mutant technique.

They soon encountered a monster covered in thorns. It looked like a hyena, but it seemed as if it was a hedgehog, too. Purple steel needles covered its entire body and it was very violent.

Roar!

This monster was at the cloudeater realm, yet in spite of that, it was unusually powerful. To Ouyang Feng who hadn’t adapted to losing his physical body, he could only control it after expending much effort.

“Foreigners, Yin spirits!” roared this monster. Ouyang Feng broke through its forehead and it softly fell to the ground.

“Strange. These life forms seem to know there are outsiders. Could it be that they frequently encounter such things?” Ouyang Feng was suspicious.

Shrrp, shrrp, shrrp…

A vast area of feathered arrows flew over and three more monsters charged over from afar. They roared with ominous glints in their eyes. They resembled hyenas with purple steel needles covering their entire body.

At this moment, the long purple thorns on their bodies dropped off and violently shot at them like densely packed feathered arrows.

Clank!

Chu Feng used his soul bell which was also the Yang realm seed and blocked all the feathered arrows. The black bell shook and shattered all of the arrows.

Pcht!

Chu Feng’s body shone at the same time and he hastened his spiritual energy right away. Three light beams flew out and tore the heads of those three monsters open in a split second to kill them.

“Are you an abnormality?! How can you sort them out so easily?” Ouyang Feng was shocked.

“I’ve recently looked into a kind of spiritual assasination technique.” Chu Feng had a serious expression. If he didn’t look into this kind of soul technique, he had to expend some tricks too because these monsters were really very ferocious.

“This won’t do. I have to choose a kind of spirit attack from my divine beast martial arts and attentively research it too.” What Ouyang Feng lacked the most was a top-notch secret technique.

Various branded fragments in his blood were activated as a result of the obliteration of the curse, so he mastered the divine beast inheritance his ancestors left for him.

“Let’s try this world’s mutant technique,” said Chu Feng.

They stared at four of these ferocious beasts that had been killed. After that, they circulated the mutant technique they obtained from the Mouse Race.

Whoosh! A few specks of light flew out from the four ferocious beasts’ bodies and entered their bodies.

In the blink of an eye, the duo felt warm all over and they felt incomparably relaxed!

Unfortunately, a considerable portion of light specks passed out of their body and couldn’t be retained. They guessed that it was possibly because they didn’t have a physical body.

Besides, the kind of mutant technique the Mouse Race had wasn’t at a high enough level. The efficiency was comparatively low and had more of a wear and tear to it.

But Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng definitely sensed that their spiritual energy was increasing and evolving. It was just that it was on a slightly shallow level!

“This defies the natural order of the world a little. If we can obtain a kind of high-ranked mutant on a level technique equivalent to the Robbery Induction breathing technique, wouldn’t we be able to move unhindered within this world?” Chu Feng’s heart burned passionately.

“Are we going to return to that bloody mountain peak?” asked Ouyang Feng. He felt that it wasn’t going to be a problem for them to work on their own. They were presently leading, so maybe they could continue laughing until the very end.

“I’m not in any hurry to return. Let’s understand the state of affairs a little more,” said Chu Feng.

He could see regions that were extremely far away with his Fiery Eyes and could avoid those dangers beforehand. This was their source of confidence in going out to explore alone.

“I think we can become spiritual martial saints here!” Ouyang Feng was brimming with confidence!

The lead clouds dispersed and the sun finally appeared. It was completely red just as though it was dyed with blood and looked a little terrifying.

Under this blood-coloured dusk, a bloody massacre was still being staged on the region outside the Vicious Beast Plateau from time to time. Ferocious beasts duelled violently and raptors fell from the sky.

Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng were hunting and in search of the truth about this world, or to put it another way, the essence of this plateau.

Unfortunately, they had very few suitable prey. The ones they encountered were enormously vicious that couldn’t be provoked and monsters at the later stage of the golden body realm were at every corner.

The main reason was because the area was bordering the Vicious Beast Plateau and the monsters that charged out of this region were all very terrifying!

“Hmm? There’s a humanoid life form!”

This was the first time they saw a life form with a human form in this wasteland, so they were immediately filled with vigor.

“Cloudeater realm!”

The both of them charged over and Chu Feng activated his murderous spiritual technique. That person let out a blood-curdling screech when the spiritual light beam shot him with a bang. He immediately grabbed his head and fell down on the ground.

On closer inspection, this wasn’t a human; it had beast fur on its body and green scales were growing on its face—this was only a living being that resembled a human!

He wailed out and started berating them. Unfortunately, Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng didn’t understand what he was saying, so he subsequently activated his spiritual voice transmission technique.

“Daring Yin Spirits, you have the audacity to attack a servant of a deity?! I am a Deity Envoy!” He was very strict as he lashed out at Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng.

“Deity Envoy? What is that? I’ll beat you!” Ouyang Feng whipped him with his bright swan wings.

“Stop! I’m the subordinate of the holiest Moon Goddess from the depths of Vicious Beast Plateau! You guys can’t treat me like this!” this life form that resembled a human bellowed out his grievances.

Ouyang Feng didn’t stop at all, but rather he beat the other party up with all his strength!

“Stop! The holiest Moon Goddess is omnipotent. Even though she dwells in the depths of Vicious Beast Plateau, she stands high above the masses and is omniscient while being omnipotent. You guys can’t treat me like this! You will suffer punishment from the deities!”

“Now, Divine King Ouyang is going to punish you! Got it?!”
