Chapter 364: Acquisition

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

"You've broken through?" The toad was curious. It looked on with bulging eyes and asked, "Could you have severed the shackle on your little thing?"

Chu Feng's head was full of black lines. This outrageous toad dared to say anything.

Bang!

Chu Feng kicked the toad away and began to observe the changes in his body.

Following which, Chu Feng's eyes shot out divine light akin to two golden lamps. That was because the shackle he had severed just now belonged to the eye region. In truth, he had long since expected this.

Since the Fiery Eyes began to appear, he knew that this part of his body had become activated—the energy there had become denser. He knew it was likely his evolution would be based therein.

Now the result was just as he had expected. If his earlier Fiery Pupils could be called an initial stage, then now it was at a great accomplishment stage and would be able to display all of its abilities.

It would be impossible for others to gain such an ability as the Fiery Eyes while opening their eye shackle.

The important part was the refinement within the eight trigrams furnace. The benefits were astonishing.

Additionally, very few people have ever severed a shackle in the eye region. Those who did succeed would at most obtain spiritual eyes.

It was said that an ability like Fiery Eyes was difficult to find across the stars even throughout the long ages!

The Revered Eight Trigrams Furnace had truly played an important role!

Currently, after complete activation, this ability was now much stronger. Golden beams erupted from his eyes in the blink of an eye and directly penetrated the ground.

He was already able to see the magnetic crystals under the earth and rocks, as well as the veined patterns within them!

This petrified Chu Feng. It was shocking!

What did this signify? In his future domain path, he would be able to rob the heaven and earth of all fortunes because he could now see through many domains.

One had to know that the runes carved on the magnetic crystals would eventually sink into the interior. And due to the extraordinary material, it was difficult to see through them.

But now, he was capable of seeing them despite the thick layers of earth, metals, and stones between them. He was able to understand them thoroughly. This was absolutely heaven-defying!

Seeing through the innate essence, pursuing the origins. This was one of the Fiery Eyes's heaven-defying uses. It was now countless times stronger than before!

Earlier on, he could see through people's clothes. It could, at most, be considered an initial stage x-ray vision. It was just scratching the surface.

As Chu Feng abruptly opened his eyes, his eyes began to release bright light. Two beams of terrifying light shot out and pierced through the metal wall of the ruins with relative ease.

"This…" He himself was greatly astonished. Such a sturdy metallic wall was as delicate as paper before the destructive powers of his eyes.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh..."

Chu Feng's eyes swept over and destroyed all of the metallic walls in the ruins, turning them into small particles. This kind of attack method was enough to shock the world!

This was even sharper than a flying knife, a terrifying killing weapon!

When describing enemies, some books would write: "If glares could kill, the victim would've died ten thousand times over." But now, this description was becoming a reality. Chu Feng's stare could kill an expert!

This was the true ability of the Fiery Eyes.

The toad was flabbergasted. It tried hard to glare but no beams of light came out from its eyes. It felt somewhat apprehensive and said, "You're not allowed to look at me. I won't cast sidelong glances at you anymore."

It was truly afraid that Chu Feng would shot out divine light from his eyes and kill it.

Following which, it began to drool non-stop as he gazed at the golden pill shaped mutant fruit. It immediately picked one and put it into its mouth, thinking it was the fruit that helped Chu Feng activate his ability.

"Stop wasting resources. Go wait on one side." Chu Feng shooed it away. He no longer allowed it to eat the divine fruits recklessly.

That was because any single fruit here could help someone sever their sixth shackle and produce a top-grade king. The toad had already reached such a level so it would be a waste to eat more.

The toad went to the side to digest his meal. It tried its utmost to concentrate energy towards the eyes. "That's odd, I don't have any shackles in my body. Why can't I produce the Fiery Eyes? Is it because my body is too perfect and overly balanced, without any special outstanding features?"

It was quite narcissistic and had always believed itself to be perfect.

Chu Feng didn't pay it any attention. He closed his eyes and began to sense the changes in his body. There seemed to be a great furnace within his eyes, gushing with shocking amounts of energy.

Using this kind of energy to nourish the eyes allowed the area to become even more resplendent. The radiance then extended towards his whole body and caused his energy levels to rise rapidly. He had grown stronger by a level.

After severing his sixth shackle and becoming a peerless expert of the continent, Chu Feng's strength increased significantly. He was much stronger than before!

For a long time, the changes in Chu Feng's body were rather subtle. After the increase in energy, he was confident that he could sweep through his opponents. Even if they grouped up against him, it wouldn't be much of a problem.

He was confident that he could cross over one realm and battle those terrifying existences with seven severed shackles. For instance, Li Canghe and the old woman.

He was currently capable of contending with those extraterrestrials and might even be able to suppress them!

"I feel I've become stronger. Give me one more fruit," the toad cried out. It had no bottlenecks on the path to evolution and would normally have a smooth road compared to other people. Additionally, its strength would be astonishing once it forged ahead. It was, after all, a divine beast.

Chu Feng was moved and told the toad to go and pick one itself. But he warned it not to waste fruits if they were ineffective.

In truth, he himself immediately violated the rule. That was because he saw that the bright red fruit on the other tree looked similar to the legendary cinnabar fruit. He immediately picked one and began to eat.

"It tastes so good," Chu Feng mumbled as he ate. He squinted his eyes while enjoying the indescribable deliciousness as the bright red fluids flowed into his mouth and transformed into red mist. An intense fragrance rose up and almost intoxicated him.

Apparently, this fruit wasn't that effective for him. It could only help people sever their sixth shackle while he had already reached such a level.

"Heh, heh, as expected, eating different mutant fruits brings great benefits. It can allow me to continuously grow stronger," the toad said somewhat provocatively, both delighted and satisfied.

It didn't have any shackles. It wouldn't get stuck like others or require various requirements to be met before breaking through to the next realm. It would grow continuously, and although the magnitude was limited, it would keep on improving all the time. This was quite frightening.

Chu Feng didn't say anything else and went up to give it a beating.

This toad just wouldn't behave without a beating. Moments later, it was wailing like a ghost and began to scuttle away while muttering how the world was so unfair. The toad was beaten until its face was swollen and blue. It was so angry that it wanted to bang its head against the ground.

It was indeed indignant because it thought its strength was continuously improving. However, it was still insufficient to prevent it from being abused by Chu Feng.

Chu Feng plucked off all the remaining fruits and stuffed them into the Pristine Jade Bottle. He was planning to keep them for Yellow Ox and the others. He didn't know how they were doing, but with these fruits, it would be enough to let them evolve!

At this time, his whole body felt warm from the intense energy. His spiritual power had become incomparably powerful.

Rumble! Growl!

Unfortunately, before long, his stomach began to rumble as a terrifying sense of hunger appeared. The unbearable hunger made him extremely nervous.

This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened.

Fortunately, he had supplies prepared within the pristine jade bottle. There was some king level meat. For instance, there was southern sea flood serpent meat and bird king wings, etc.

He had cooked food and also cleaned fresh meat. Chu Feng began to stuff cooked meat into his mouth while his right palm began to glow with flames as he roasted meat on the spot.

Like the wind sweeping away the clouds, he gobbled up a huge pile of king level meat in one sitting. Even then, he had only slightly alleviated the hunger, but he didn't continue.

That was because he didn't want to drag too long lest problems arise. It was best to deal with the energy pagoda as quickly as possible.

"The scriptures will rush into your head as soon as you enter the pagoda," said the toad.

It had heard about this from the people who spoke to it of the dao during the long period on Mount Tai before it came into being. It couldn't remember everything clearly, but sometimes, it would recall them when encountering certain things.

"You go and try it," Chu Feng said while casting a sidelong glance at it.

"Fine!" The toad was bold. Seeing that Chu Feng didn't quite trust its words, it immediately jumped into the energy pagoda.

Swoosh!

Just as it was approaching, a light flew towards it and enveloped its body, rendering it immobile.

Chu Feng was astonished. This energy pagoda was like a precise instrument. It had locked onto the toad and was scanning it, seemingly to perform a certain test.

The energy pagoda erupted with light which carried a certain message which they could all sense. The toad had been denied because it didn't meet the requirements. It couldn't receive the inheritance.

"What damn thing is this? It's alive?! It told me that my bloodline and breathing don't match each other!" The toad was astonished.

The toad retreated swiftly as the light receded.

"What's the matter?" Chu Feng asked.

"The energy tower talked to me!" The toad was bewildered.

Finally, Chu Feng stepped up and attempted it personally.

Within moments, a light flew out from the tower and enveloped him. He was scanned from head to toe and even into his flesh and blood.

"Why does this energy inheritance pagoda feel so scientific?!" Chu Feng was astonished. He was even feeling more strongly that this was a type of precision apparatus.

Suddenly, he heard the chanting of sutras from within the pagoda. He was quite familiar with this rhythm. Soon, he was astonished because he knew what it was.

There was a type of breathing technique within the energy pagoda, and it was a little bit similar to the one given to him by Yellow Ox. Some places were actually identical, but such similarities were few and far between.

After listening in detail, he felt that the breathing technique within the energy pagoda wasn't as intricate as the one he had obtained from Yellow Ox. It could only be said that this was a simplified version.

At this moment, energy began to circulate within his body as the breathing technique given to him by Yellow Ox began to activate. White mist escaped from his nose and mouth.

Within moments, the whole energy pagoda began to shake!

There was a certain message hidden within the energy which told him that he was exceptionally compatible with this inheritance!

With a swoosh, the silver box from within the energy pagoda flew out and landed in Chu Feng's hands.

A certain mechanical sound rang out in Chu Feng's heart: "Mission accomplished. Item returned to rightful owner."

In truth, it wasn't a voice but more like a manifestation of energy containing this message.

Chu Feng was shocked. What was going on?

This pagoda was helping him preserve the silver box which originally belonged to him? It was returning the item to the rightful owner? He was distressed. How was it possible?!

He thought about it and immediately recalled a certain possibility. It should be the effects of the breathing technique Yellow Ox had taught him. Only those from the lineage of this breathing technique would be allowed to take the silver box away.

As expected, he obtained some confirmation later on.

The mechanical sound rang out in his heart once more as the energy pagoda transmitted more information. It said that not only could the inheritance within the energy pagoda not compare to Chu Feng's inheritance, but it was also fragmented and incapable of performing a true transfer.

Chu Feng thought about many things in a flash.

The inheritance pagoda within an imperial court of evolved beings actually said that its own inheritance couldn't compare to certain other lineages. The court was merely helping that lineage preserve the item!

This was truly terrifying!

Just what could be within the silver box. He was full of doubt and anticipation!

At the same time, he recalled how Yellow Ox wasn't willing to discuss more about this mysterious breathing technique no matter how he asked. He would just avoid this topic. It was obvious that he was hiding something. Could it be related to earth?
