Xu Mei's pearly white teeth accentuated her sexy lips as she smiled faintly. She didn't say anything, but her large beautiful eyes drifted towards Chu Feng's figure.

Yu Hanzhi said, "Xu Mei, don't tell me you're love-struck again? Could it be that you want to recruit a son-in-law for father? On second thoughts, it's not impossible with Chu Feng's status."

She was also laughing but with a tinge of mockery. Their tone was somewhat irreverent towards Chu Feng, quite different from their kind attitude earlier.

"Enough, let's be careful. That toad is hopping nearby and might hear us. It'll be bad if it's a divergent race with keen divint instincts." Li Xinghe cut them short and forbade them from continuing.

But there was still a cold smile on his face which clearly proved his attitude towards Chu Feng.

In truth, the toad's senses were sharper than all of these people but he wasn't angry at all. He continued looking around in the distance and was secretly happy that these people were denouncing Chu Feng.

"Thump!"

Chu Feng sent it flying with a single kick. He couldn't flare up against those people just yet, so he naturally took it out on the toad after seeing its attitude of schadenfreude.

"Ah, didn't he say that he can't be separated from the toad that saved his life? Why did he kick it just now?" Liu Wucheng whispered.

"I've found it. There's an entrance to the tomb here. We can go in now," Chu Feng shouted from afar. It was precisely where he had kicked the toad flying.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…

The group rushed over. Even the bird king, in her human form, had landed in the area. They observed in detail because it was different from the entrance they had found last time.

Cai Ying couldn't help but reveal an expression of ridicule. He dared call himself a domain researcher when he couldn't even find the entrance?

"Sir, the real entrance to the tomb is on the rock. There's an opening there," Li Xinghe reminded. At this time, he was, once again, standing in front of Chu Feng with a pleasant expression.

"Do you really understand domains? You can't even find the correct entrance." Cai Ying mocked with a soft voice.

"That one is a death pathway. If you really go through that door, you'll be roasted by the earthen flames. This one is the life pathway," explained Chu Feng.

At this point, he made the group dig into the ground at their current location.

"Let that bird do it. A single claw here will reveal everything," Chu Feng advised.

"You… what is that tone?!" The bird king Cai Ying was furious.

"Allow me." Liu Wencheng laughed as he spat out a beam of light which ground apart the grassland like a flying knife. The radiance rose like a whirlwind and drew the soil to one side.

This was metallic Qi from within his lungs. It was indeed mysterious and moved even Chu Feng.

That was because such a method, according to rumors, belonged to ancient sword immortals. Some people cultivated flying knives while others nurtured metallic qi within their lungs. At high levels, they were powerful enough to kill enemies hundreds of kilometers away.

A stone slab appeared under the meadow soil with patterns from an ancient era. They appeared coarse but were able to leave a special imprint of that particular era.

The group was astonished to see that there really was a secret passage here. Cai Ying was flabbergasted and didn't know what to say.

Chu Feng didn't take action because he was pretending to be a cripple and instead let the others do the excavation work.

People like Yu Hanzhi and Li Xinghe were used to having other people work for them. But now they could only accept the situation and work personally according to Chu Feng's instructions.

A huge stone slab was revealed after clearing out the area. There were unimaginable things carved upon it—flying yakshas, ferocious wolf totems, etc—they were things no one recognized.

"Be careful! A great tomb lies below after we uncover this area."

As expected a pitch-black graveyard appeared after moving the stone slab away. It smelled of mold and decay.

"Eh? Why are there no flames here? We encountered divine flames when we last tried to enter and were almost murdered." Xu Mei was astonished and still somewhat apprehensive.

"But why is there a smell of decay here. It feels like the tomb of an ordinary person and not that of a divine khan," said Yu Hanzhi.

Chu Feng shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I'm only searching for a safe path according to the domain fluctuations. I don't understand other things related to grave robbing.

Xu Mei laughed, "Doesn't Brother Chu know? Some sage tombs were arranged by domain researchers and all of them lie in extreme forbidden areas. The fields touched upon by your kind are indeed very vast."

Chu Feng was dumbfounded. In truth, he had nothing to fear if they really were to begin from the field of domains.

He even looked forward to it. Could it be that the powerful evolved beings were all entombed amidst special geography according to domain logic?

"Were there many sage tombs on those ancient life stars in the outer realm celestial systems?" He was somewhat expectant.

"Sages are difficult to kill, and as such, those restricted areas are quite rare. But there are indeed some." Li Xinghe smiled.

Yu Hanzhi was secretly disdainful and spoke telepathically to the others, "One must know his own value. This person won't amount to much. How laughable of him to have designs on sage burial grounds with his meager skills."

"Let's go. Stop overthinking it. He's currently very useful to us. Why would you care what about his future?"

Afterwards, they went deeper into the great tomb. They saw many large stone tools along the way and then found large numbers of bronze burial containers, etc.

Chu Feng was astonished. There were such items during the primordial era? It seemed there was indeed a gap in civilization.

That was because, according to them, this divine khan's tomb had existed on earth for several tens of thousands of years.

This was a very large and majestic tomb occupying a large area. But Chu Feng couldn't find anything related to evolved beings even after walking one whole circle.

The large area was the size of several football fields.

Chu Feng came to the surface once again to take more measurements and observe the geography in detail. He then pondered for a long time before opening his eyes.

"Enter and keep on digging after you reach the tomb."

It would be waste of free labor if he didn't use them well. He ordered them about quite skilfully.

Liu Wucheng and the others were smiling on the surface but were quite displeased inside. They had found a domain researcher but the man actually refused to do any manual labor and had them digging and moving stones instead. These scions of descended beings felt the labor to be coarse and menial.

Within the tomb, Chu Feng would perform calculations in every area and make these people dig together.

They had dug hundreds of meters and had long since left the confines to the tomb. They were headed deep into the earth, and soon, the soil around them gradually became different.

The air in the area was boiling hot while the soil was dry and hard. Sparks would occasionally fly out from the dirt.

Suddenly, the earth before Liu Wencheng collapsed with a boom as he exerted some force. Flames leapt up from within and almost swept him into it.

Chu Feng didn't go down but he could see clearly from above.

The group rushed up rapidly and stared at Chu Feng in fury.

"Chu Feng, what's going on? There are divine flames underneath. You almost sent us to our demise!"

"Do you really understand domains? You stand up here in safety while playing with our lives. Your fate won't be any better if we are to encounter misfortune."

Apparently, these words of rebuke came from their hearts.

The group felt that they had almost encountered danger just like the last time. They gazed at Chu Feng with cold and gloomy expressions without any fear of revealing their true behaviors.

Chu Feng replied, "Rest assured. It looks dangerous but it's actually quite safe down there."

Liu Wencheng, Yu Hanzhi, and the others felt they had gone overboard with their words. Their eyes flickered as they resolved the awkwardness with smiles.

Li Xinghe said, "Brother Chu, please forgive us. We spoke irresponsibly because we really thought ourselves to be in mortal danger."

"Rest assured, I'll go down with you this time. I feel I've found the right path. We'll arrive on the holy ground after passing through the flames. There should be fortunes there." Chu Feng had them bring him along this time.

"Brother Chu, let me bring you down," Xu Mei said with a smile. Her large watery eyes were fairly charming.

She embraced Chu Feng and headed down. The others followed right behind.

The toad immediately sighed after witnessing this scene and cursed in secret, "What use is there in being handsome? Isn't it just a hug from a beauty? I can jump down fine on my own." With that, he jumped down directly.

After arriving at the collapsed area, they witnessed a sea of fiery red. The place was glowing resplendently and the temperature was shocking.

"Jump down. You'll arrive on the holy ground after passing this flaming region," said Chu Feng.

The group looked at each other. They didn't dare to act recklessly because they didn't completely trust him.

"Let me go and find a path. When you all come down, later on, remember to jump straight down. Don't touch the flames in the distance." At this point, Chu Feng jumped down voluntarily.

He immediately disappeared.

The group wore serious expressions. Should they really enter?

At this time, the toad arrived.

Li Xinghe's eyes were cold as he grabbed the toad and threw it violently into the sea of flames.

"Croak, croak, croak…" The toad croaked. Actually, it was swearing at them with the four letter word. It would've started a massacre long ago if Chu Feng hadn't instructed it to endure for a while.

"Grandson, you dare throw me like this? I'll definitely beat you to death in a while!" the toad shouted. In the group's ears, however, he was just croaking.

"Why didn't you squish him to death just now?" the bird king Cai Ying mumbled.

"We can't do it now. We can push it towards certain doom next time we need to probe the road ahead," Yu Hanzhi said softly.

At this time, Chu Feng's voice came from below, "Come down. It's very safe here. This place is quite divine and fantastic."

After hearing this, the group hesitated for a moment before jumping into the sea of flames in succession.

As expected, they dropped straight down through the sea of flames but weren't burned at all. Afterwards, they saw a bizarre scene.

There was a peaceful land below the sea of flames. It was as gentle as spring and glowing brilliantly like the holy ground of a god.

The soil beneath their feet possessed a light golden luster, a stark contrast from the rotten tomb above. Additionally, there weren't any frightening dangers and flames either.

The area was filled with light and difficult to imagine as a place deep underground.

"This is the real ancient divine tomb. This is the real burial ground of the divine khan," explained Chu Feng.

At the same time, the collapsed earth just now was the only entrance to this place. He had found the correct entrance.

The four were astonished. They couldn't help but acknowledge Chu Feng's attainments in the field of domains and were much more polite towards him.

Chu Feng strode forward and had the others follow him without charging in randomly.

Before long, they were shaken as they discovered faint golden light in the depths of this holy ground. There was a coffin hovering in the air surrounded by meteorites arranged in starry patterns.

"The coffin of the divine khan?" Liu Wencheng was excited and eager to rush forward.

A divine tomb would inevitably hold items of shocking value.

The coffin and the meteorites were all floating in the air with brilliant light shining from their midst.

They became increasingly alarmed as they walked forward. It felt as if they had become smaller like ants, while the coffin, akin to a mountain, was becoming bigger before their eyes.

Additionally, those meteorites were just as vast and majestic. It was terrifying.

At this time, it felt as if they were looking upon a river of stars as they gazed at the distant coffin.

"Divine tomb. It's an ancient divine tomb without a doubt. Could this place really be connected to the starry sky?!" Yu Hanzhi was shaken.

Chu Feng was puzzled. He felt the coffin area was extremely dangerous and thus didn't rashly unravel the domains there.

At this time, the intense fragrance of fruit wafted towards them from afar. The intense scent made all of their mouths water.

Although the holy ground was radiant and even the soil was glowing, the vegetation was sparse. Now that there was fruit fragrance in the air, it naturally attracted their attention.

There were flames flickering in an area far in the distance. The fruit fragrance came from there.

Li Xinghe said, "Let's go and see what kind of mature mutant fruits there are. They wouldn't allow us to sever our seventh shackle, would they? According to reason, the current revived vegetation shouldn't have reached such a level."

Chu Feng led the way while paying attention to the possible domain traps.

They finally arrived. There was a small tree enshrouded in flames. It was as thick as an arm and one meter tall. Its trunk was emitting golden light while its leaves were thin and long like pine needles.

It would resemble a golden pine tree without detailed observation.

There were two brilliant golden yellow fruits upon it. The fragrance became even more intense as they approached.

"Extreme Yang Divine Fruit?!" Li Xinghe was overwhelmed.

"Indeed, it looks quite similar. But aren't they supposed to grow on meteorites near the sun? How could they grow underground?" Yu Hanzhi cried out in surprise.

Extreme Yang Divine Fruit. It was a rare mutant fruit. There was only a minute chance of its mother tree appearing on meteors facing the sun.

This thing was extremely difficult to find.

They felt that it was impossible for such a divine tree to grow underground.

Only Chu Feng knew that this area was quite different. It was a gathering place of large amounts of extreme yang essence. Once it erupted, the nine suns would traverse the sky amidst cries of the golden crow.

He was also starting at the beautiful and resplendent mutant tree. It was flowing with intense fiery essence and suffused with fruit fragrance. It truly made people drool.

The toad immediately began to drool and rushed over to grab the fruit.

"You fool!" the bird king Cai Ting said disdainfully.

The toad was furious and really wanted to slap her to death.

Li Xinghe observed for a long time before saying, "Ah, this isn't a true Divine Fruit of Extreme Yang. Those things have stringent growing conditions. It's difficult to find them even after searching several suns. It might become a divine tree of extreme yang if it undergoes the baptism of vicissitudes, nurtured by the essence of extreme yang."

"Even so, the mutant fruit before us definitely has potent medicinal effects. I wonder if it'll help us evolve!" Yu Hanzhi's beautiful eyes were burning with incomparable hope.

"Brother Chu, do you have the means to pick the fruits?" Liu Wencheng asked longingly.

None of them dared act rashly because the aura of the extreme yang essence flames was too intense. They were afraid of being immolated while picking the golden fruit.

They didn't dare to act recklessly, especially since they were in such a mysterious and unknown area.

"I might be able to attempt it if I have good materials," said Chu Feng.

"Heh, heh. This, brother Chu, you don't have to worry. We have long since prepared them for you. Here are some rare materials," said Li Xinghe.

He was wearing a bracelet. Its color was dark and without any luster. It could be said that it was not in the least outstanding. But now, he had actually retrieved a large pile of magnetic stones from within.

Doubtlessly, this was a spatial equipment!

Chu Feng's eyes shone as he stared at the bracelet.

Li Xinghe said with a satisfied expression, "Ah, brother Chu has probably not seen such a thing before. It's carved from rare spatial rock and contains 10 cubic meters of space within."

Apparently, he wasn't aware that Chu Feng possessed a spatial bottle. He would probably kill for the Pristine Jade Bottle if he knew it could now hold 800 cubic meters within after being refined on Mount Zhijin.

"Brother Chu, don't be envious. This item is indeed extraordinary, but we'll gift you a spatial rock if we find one in the future." Li Xinghe patted Chu Feng's shoulder.

Chu Feng's eyes were resplendent. But was it envy? Obvious not. He was only staring at the fat sheep.

Afterwards, Chu Feng was moved because a large pile of magnetic stones was poured out. Perhaps it would be more accurate to call them magnetic crystals. All of them were valuable materials rarely found on earth.

He understood that these things were dug up from the origin magnetic immortal cave in the north pole. Perhaps the magnetic crystals were easily found in that area!

"Very good. This shouldn't be a problem. I should be able to pick those treasured medicines which resemble the Divine Fruits of Extreme Yang," Chu Feng said in delight.

How could he not be happy? He felt that it was pleasant surprise to be able to borrow the fruit's strength to evolve!

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…

Before long, Chu Feng tossed out the magnetic crystals with runes carved on them and deployed them into different areas. Immediately, the whole place lit up with intersecting patterns as a domain was formed.

Within the blink of an eye, the essence flames of extreme yang around the golden tree disappeared. The fire receded into the ground, drawn away by an ineffable energy.

"Can we pick it now?" Liu Wencheng couldn't wait any longer.

"Not yet." Chu Feng shook his head. In truth, it was already fine to pick them but he continued carving runes onto the magnetic crystals and threw them out to form another domain. This caused the little tree to become hazy and gradually disappear from sight.

"What's going on?" Li Xinghe frowned because the area seemed to be isolated from the outside world.

"Ah, this is a wondrous property of domains. I'm trying to divert the essence flames of extreme yang. Let me go in and see if it's successful," said Chu Feng.

The others all nodded in agreement.

Chu Feng appeared quite cautious. He approached the area slowly and finally disappeared from sight.

After entering, Chu Feng immediately picked a golden fruit and took a bite out of it. A strong fragrance rapidly filled his mouth as golden light erupted within.

This feeling was too wonderful. This fruit was exceptionally tasty.

Swoosh!

A human figure flashed past. Liu Wucheng arrived in time to witness this scene. He immediately shouted in fury, "You're f*cking courting death! Who do you think you are to dare steal our divine fruit? Put it down and come receive your death!"

He secretly followed Chu Feng in because he felt somewhat uneasy and just happened to witness the latter eating the mutant fruit.

Chu Feng delivered a single slap. It landed rapidly on the man's face with a pow and sent him flying with blood pouring out of his nose and mouth.

"So noisy. I wanted to bear with you lot for some time but you're simply too indiscreet. Do you lot think it's a great sin that I'm strong enough to pick this fruit? Do you think of me as a slave?" Chu Feng laughed coldly.

This place was isolated from the outside, so he wasn't worried those outside would hear him.

"You…" Liu Wencheng was shocked that Chu Feng was actually able to slap him away.

Afterwards, he leapt up immediately and spat out sword intent from his mouth to deliver a direct lethal blow. Additionally, he called out to the others to come in.

Unfortunately, those outside couldn't hear him due to the domain's isolation.

Pa!

Yet another slap was whipped onto Liu Wucheng's face, sending him flying across the area. He was filled with shock and anger. Not only was his face in unbearable pain, but he also felt greatly humiliated.
