Chapter 313: Kun Peng Temple, Ancient Legacy

The team explored this island in an orderly manner. Now and then, they would encounter some difficult beast, which Qi Shaoxuan would deal with.

Actually, Shen Tian also wanted to help, but everyone stopped him. They believed that Shen Tian had to conserve his energy to control the chaotic aura inside him.

The rest of them could settle all the fights.

And it was true. When the team cooperated and gave their all, no beast on that island was a match for them, especially when Qi Shaoxuan and Ao Wu worked together to execute their special attack. Their combined battle prowess became enhanced.

Even if that giant octopus came back to life, it would probably not be able to withstand their attacks.

Of course, it was still impossible for them to kill that beast in one move.

Explore, split the loot.

Explore, split the loot.

Explore, split the loot.

...

Everyone had a very relaxing and happy experience, and they all attained a significant fortune. A fortune that could match up to multiple years of cultivation in the outside world.

The Chaotic Star Island domain was indeed the most bountiful mystic realm in the North Sea.

After the team explored the periphery of the island, they started to move toward the inner regions.

A thick layer of chaotic aura also engulfed the core region. Luckily, there was an opening in the center.

After exploring over 100 miles into the inner region, the team “inadvertently” came across a temple.

The temple was magnificent. It was hundreds of feet in height, piercing through the clouds.

It was like it had merged into the heavens. One couldn’t help feeling awed by the sight.

This splendid temple was like a massive beast, exuding a wild and barbaric aura.

And at the front of the temple was a huge gate.

A gold plaque hung above the door. Four mighty demonic words were carved onto it.

Shen Tian just glanced at the four demonic words and felt like his soul was being sucked right in. He nearly sank right into it.

Even Shen Tian had nearly fallen into a trance. The rest were no exception.

All except for Qi Shaoxuan, who was already at the Nascent Soul stage, and his soul power was greatly enhanced after refining the Sea God’s Star Tear. He was the only one who managed to fend off the effects of those four words.

The others, like Ao Wu, Yu Pianxian, and the four princes, were all completely entranced by the words. They stood there in a daze as if their soul had been sucked in!

“Wake up!”

Brows slightly furrowed, Shen Tian activated the Pure Reincarnation Earth’s power in his divine consciousness before shouting out.

Everyone instantly snapped out of their trance. Their backs were drenched in cold sweat.

“What bizarre-looking words. They possess such a profound power.”

“If not for Brother Shen calling us back to consciousness, we might find it very difficult to wake up.”

“It was rumored that in ancient times some people ended up being in a trance for over 100 years before finally waking up enlightened.”

“If we saw these four words in the outside world and managed to gain enlightenment after snapping out of our trance, it would be a good thing. But inside Chaotic Star Island, the curse would take effect if we got stuck in a trance.”

“I have yet to repay Brother Shen for saving my life previously, and now, he has saved me again.”

“Saving my life twice. How can I ever repay Brothen Shen!”

...

Shen Tian felt a little exasperated. “Let’s focus here, guys. Does anyone recognize these words?”

The White Prince studied the words carefully. After deliberating for some time, he looked like he did know what those words meant. His face was filled with excitement. “If I am not wrong, those four words should be: Kun Peng Temple.”

Kun Peng Temple?

What a domineering name. Could this be the legendary abode of the deities?

The White Prince saw the dubious looks on everyone’s faces. He explained. “I saw this in some ancient records.

“In ancient times, it was said that the Southern Border’s Great Golden Peng race and the North Sea’s Great Void Kun race both originated from the same bloodline. They are both descendants of the Kun Peng.

“If the Kun race bloodline reached a certain level, they could grow feathers to become Peng. They would then possess two different true bodies and transcend to a totally new level.

“Similarly, if the Great Golden Peng race bloodline reached a certain level, they could also attain the powers of the Great Void Kun race.”

Ao Wu was curious. “Could this Kun Peng Temple hold the legacy of the Kun Peng race?”

The White Prince replied, “No one knows for sure. But according to ancient records, every time a Kun Peng divine beast appears in North Sea, it will herald a major catastrophe for the five regions.

“It was said the last time a Kun Peng appeared in the five regions, it was during the forbidden period 10,000 years ago.

“That time, the Kun race had a Kun prodigy with unprecedented talent and powers. His bloodline reached the top levels, and he turned into a Kun Peng, dominating all.

“During his peak, he even executed the Great Sky-Swallowing Technique from the Northern Underworld, annihilating a Perfected Immortal.

“His powers were as great at the Immortal Phoenix Queen during that era!”

Yeap, at that time, Ao Bing had already fallen.

The eyes of the team glittered as they listened to the White Prince describe just how powerful the Kun Peng was.

Annihilating a Perfected Immortal at the Sage stage. What kind of power was that?

A prodigy could fight beyond their own level during a battle. But that was only for the lower levels.

Many people across the five regions managed to fight beyond their own level when they were at the Foundation Establishment stage.

But a Nascent Soul level cultivator beating a Soul Formation practitioner? A Soul Formation practitioner beating a Sage? The number of prodigies who managed to do that could be counted on one hand.

As for a Sage cultivator killing a Perfected Immortal—this was even rarer.

After all, anyone who managed to reach the level of a Perfected Immortal was definitely not your usual prodigy!

It would be near-impossible for someone to transcend a level to beat them.

But that Kun Peng from ancient times had managed to do that. He had defeated a Perfected Immortal while he was still at the Sage stage.

With that kind of power, no wonder he was legendary across the five regions!

...

Qi Shaoxuan tightened his grip around his halberd. “This means that that Kun Peng might have left behind this temple?”

Shen Tian shook his head. “This temple is so magnificent. As powerful as that Kun Peng might be, it would be very difficult for him to create such a splendid abode.

“Moreover, cultivators above the age of 500 are unable to enter the Chaotic Star Island domain due to the Chaos Array.

“But I believe that the Sage Kun Peng did come to this temple when he was young.”

The White Prince nodded. “According to ancient records, that Sage Kun Peng did enter the Chaotic Star Island domain before. His powers increased dramatically after visiting the domain, and he started to reign over all his peers. He became indomitable.

“A pity that this Sage ended up being ambushed and killed by those Evil Spirits from the outside world. He did not leave behind his legacy.”

Shen Tian slowly walked to the front of the Kun Peng Temple. “There’s nothing to feel pity about. Since this temple is still here, perhaps there’s still some fortuitous opportunity left. We will know after we enter to take a look.”

With that, Shen Tian pushed the gates to the Kun Peng Temple. He felt a huge force pushing back against his hands.

The massive gate was glowing, and divine scriptures appeared all over it. It exuded a formidable power.

Shen Tian felt like the door had become as heavy as a towering mountain. It was unmovable.

It was clear that this was some sort of test.

Those whose powers were not great enough were not worthy to enter this gate.

“This bit of power is not enough to stop me.”

Shen Tian’s eyes glowed. He exuded a mighty aura all over his body.

Standing firm, his right hand suddenly magnified by 10 times and radiated with pristine golden light.

Behind Shen Tian, one could see the vague image of a golden eagle.

Eagle Seizing Dragon!

Ahhh!

It was as if Shen Tian had morphed into a divine eagle from ancient times. He charged against the gate.

The massive gate was finally gradually pushed open with a rumble.

The expansive, empty temple was revealed before everyone’s eyes.

...

Yes, expansive and empty.

There was nothing at all inside the temple. Not even a single chair.

It was clear that someone had already raided this place before them and taken away all the treasures.

For a moment, everyone felt rather deflated. Shen Tian was the only one who stepped in resolutely as if he had already expected this.

He slowly closed his eyes and seemed to be recalling or sensing something.

Shen Tian opened his eyes again and continued to make his way forward.

This temple was so big it was like a world of its own. It was at least a thousand miles in floor space.

Nonetheless, Shen Tian soon found his target in that endless infrastructure.

It was a huge manor with a flourishing garden in the center.

Yes, these were the spirit herbs growing within the Kun Peng Temple.

Although others had already raided the Kun Peng Temple, the spirit herb garden had not completely died off.

The herbs in the garden had grown again after 10,000 years. A large batch of superior-grade herbs was once again thriving.

It could be said that any one of those herbs growing in that garden was enough to make a Heavenly Venerable on the outside go green with envy.

“A bountiful harvest! A bountiful harvest!”

“This is a Black Red Cherry. It is even more potent than a Sage-level elixir!”

“This is a Dark Blood Orchid. It can be refined into a pill that will enhance one’s bloodline. It is priceless!”

“Could this be the legendary Sea Heart Grass? It can greatly improve one’s ability to control water. It is a divine grass favored by the great ocean itself.”

...

It was clear that this was a team who knew their stuff. These herbs were very attractive to them.

In contrast, Shen Tian looked like he was not interested at all in those herbs. He knew that they were not the biggest fortuitous opportunity to be found here.

The team carefully distributed the herbs, brilliant smiles on their faces. Of course, Shen Tian got the biggest share.

After all, everyone believed that Shen Tian was the Son of Providence. He had the ability to foresee fortuitous opportunities.

Otherwise, how could they get such great goodies every single time?

If they allocated the rewards according to contribution, it was only right for Shen Tian to get the lion’s share.

After keeping the herbs, Shen Tian led the team deeper into the Kun Peng Temple.

It must be said that the Kun Peng Temple was indeed very mysterious. Even after being raided once in ancient times, it still contained many secret rooms that were sealed off.

Formidable ancient techniques sealed off those secret rooms. No normal cultivator would be able to break through.

Only an immortal could try to break those seals.

However, Shen Tian’s target was not those secret rooms. He bypassed those rooms and arrived at the innermost region of the Kun Peng Temple.

It was a huge mountain, suspended in mid-air. Tens of thousands of feet in height, it looked very majestic.

It was worth mentioning that it looked like someone had hacked this mountain in half. There was a gap measuring several hundred feet right down the middle.

But compared to the mountain’s towering height, this gap of several hundred feet was nothing.

The mountain looked whole and complete from afar.

It was also worth mentioning that there were two drawings, one on each half of the mountain.

The drawing on the left side was of a massive azure green wave, crashing and rolling in a majestic manner. And a large, imposing figure was swimming in that giant wave.

The figure looked like a fish, but it was even bigger than the mountain. It was at least several thousand miles long.

Yes, several thousand miles!

The mountain was clearly less than several thousand miles in size, but when the team looked at the painting, they could just tell that this massive fish was that big.

Kun!

The team knew that this was a formidable Kun.

Its cultivation was definitely at an unimaginable level, far surpassing that of the Sage level.

This was because everyone here had seen their fair share of Sage-level cultivators. None of them were as tremendous as this.

Any living creature that was able to grow to a size of several thousand miles—its power was definitely beyond imagination. Otherwise, it would collapse unto itself.

The Kun in the wall drawing had truly existed. Its power was enough to astound all five regions!

And the drawing on the right side was of a boundless sky, within which soared a huge Peng.

It looked even more magnificent than the Kun on the left. Its wings covered the sky as the sun reflected against its body, which dazzled with golden light.

Below it, the earth, sea, and states were all submerged in its shadow.

A fierce draft was created when it spread its massive wings, which tunneled for thousands of miles. The Peng soared high up into the empty sky!

For a moment, everyone was dumbstruck.

They were clearly still-drawings, but the team felt like they were seeing it in real-time.

On the left, the team could nearly smell the scent of the ocean.

On the right, the team could almost hear the high shrills of the Divine Peng!

...

A mystic humming could be vaguely heard echoing through the air.

Imperceptible sound waves drifted out of the wall drawings.

The sound waves drifted slowly toward Shen Tian and his team, transforming into a special energy within their bodies.

This energy circulated inside their bodies as if imparting them with some supreme Dao.

This supreme Dao was too profound. The team had no idea how to decipher it.

“Let’s quickly ingest a Sea God’s Star Tear now!”

Shen Tian took out a Sea God’s Star Tear as he reminded everyone.

Deciphering a new Dao required vast amounts of soul energy. Fortunately, everyone in this team had a good store of Sea God’s Star Tears.

There were diminishing returns on a Sea God’s Star Tear’s ability to enhance one’s soul energy. Although the effects from anything beyond five Sea God’s Star Tear would be negligible, there were no limits on its effectiveness in replenishing soul energy.

Everyone immediately ingested a Sea God’s Star Tear, and a faint blue glow spread throughout their bodies.

The divine humming was sounding clearer and clearer by the minute. It was like the universe was now spinning in reverse. It was as if they were trapped in the space between the great ocean and the vast skies.

Below them was the giant Kun, swimming in the churning ocean.

Above them was the massive divine Peng, its wings blocking out the sky and the sun.

The giant Kun and divine Peng were imparting their Dao via the mystical soundwaves, directly imprinting the knowledge into their brains.

This was the Kun Peng Dao!

Time passed by the minute and second. It was clear that everyone had gained a lot.

A huge Kun avatar appeared behind Yu Pianxian. She had a rather good understanding of the Kun Dao.

Meanwhile, Qi Shaoxuan’s purple aura had formed into the shape of a soaring Peng. It was like he had learned a brand new supreme technique.

The most surprising was the Shark Prince. With his machete on his back, he was the group’s sternest and most unsmiling person.

But now, it was like he had gained a certain great epiphany. His demeanor underwent a huge change.

Behind him was an avatar of a huge black-red shark, frolicking in the ocean waves. Following that... the shark gills spread out to become bird wings.

Yes, this fellow actually managed to decipher the “Wing Transformation” part of the mystical soundwaves. His avatar started to morph into a “Shark Eagle”.

It looked extremely bizarre, but it would be a great benefit to him if he truly understood it.

...

As for Shen Tian himself, he gained the most.

He slowly closed his eyes, and Rainbow Divine Light surrounded him.

The five extraordinary items inside his body were also humming with power, helping Shen Tian enhance his power source.

Red and white flowers bloomed around Shen Tian, symbolizing Yin and Yang, perfectly complementing the Kun Peng drawings.

The white Hurricane Lily represented Yin and illusion, which matched with the Kun Dao. The red Hurricane Lily represented Yang and reality, which matched with the Peng Dao.

The Hurricane Lilies kept turning back and forth between red and white. The Kun and Peng Daos were also rapidly transforming.

The avatars of two massive divine beasts appeared behind Shen Tian.

One was the black giant Kun, while the other was the golden divine Peng. The two were merged into one formidable power source.

Rumble!

The towering cliff vibrated gently. The formerly tranquil soundwaves started to surge wildly into Shen Tian.

Shen Tian’s soul was already immersed in the process of deciphering the Dao, so he was completely unaware of the changes around him.

His Golden Core—originally about an apple’s size— rose up and rapidly increased in size.

A cultivator’s Golden Core would morph according to their understanding of Dao. Generally, the more one understood, the more cracks there would be, and the more powerful their Golden Core would become.

For example, Fang Chang had managed to gain a certain level of understanding of the Lightning Dao and successfully reached the Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage.

Qi Shaoxuan had also managed to gain a certain level of understanding of the Purple Mansion Dao, Nirvana Dao, and Divine Dragon Dao. As a result, he had successfully reached the Golden Core 10th Refinement Stage.

On top of his Mixed Divine Lightning Dao, Shen Tian had now gained an understanding of the Yin Yang Kun Peng Dao. Consequently, his Golden Core actually grew bigger.

In just a few hours’ time, the Golden Core above Shen Tian’s head was now as big as a pomelo.

The aura exuded by that Golden Core was extremely oppressing.

The problem was that there was not a single divine emblem on it!

...

“The Northern Underworld has fish—known as the Kun. They are all several thousands of miles in size.

“When transformed into birds, they are known as Peng. Those Pengs are also several thousands of miles in size.

“Flying in rage, its wings are like clouds hanging down from the skies. Causing ripples in the water, which spread across 3,000 miles, now soaring over 90,000 miles into the sky aided by the wind.”

Shen Tian subconsciously recited.

His golden wings suddenly spread open, looking extremely resplendent.

Suddenly, divine light showered Shen Tian.

At that moment, it was like he had morphed into an ancient Kun Peng.

Regal, powerful, majestic, indomitable!

Boom!

Shen Tian moved.

The void between heaven and earth suddenly started to crumble!
