The Vatican Divine City was like a mottled ancient scroll that had been unfolded. Majestic buildings stretched out in a continuous chain. Regardless of whether it was the ancient castles or the churches, all of them had a sense of history.
"The city we are standing in right now is exactly the same as the Holy City of the Holy See's most glorious era as recorded in the history books. This is truly a miracle that has reappeared in the present age."
Chu Feng's group of three, accompanied by Ovidius, were currently learning about this mysterious city.
All of the buildings were glowing with a dark golden luster. After experiencing the baptism of countless years, they were still suffused with a holy radiance. There was a kind of solemn and divine energy lingering around them.
"Oh, you are Chu Feng?"
A golden-haired young man walked over from the opposite side of the street. His hair was resplendent as if it was burning with golden flames. His entire person looked like a sun god. When his eyes opened and closed, terrifying golden beams of light would fly out.
Needless to say, this was a terrifying expert. His strength was extremely tyrannical, like the legendary divine knights of the Holy See. There was a kind of divine energy pervading the air.
"The Golden Lion King!" Ovidius was on guard. He immediately revealed his origins to warn Chu Feng's group.
This was a Lion King with four severed shackles. He was extremely famous in the Vatican and possessed astonishing strength. Normally, not many people were willing to provoke him. In addition to his own strength, his identity was also extraordinary.
Behind him was an old Lion King with six severed shackles. That existence was not a king of the current era. He was already close to being invincible many years ago.
Although the two were not related by blood, they were from the same race. This was enough!
The Golden Lion King walked over with his long golden hair dancing like flames. The street was illuminated in a splendid contrast. Every movement of his was accompanied by a terrifying aura.
He smiled and looked at Chu Feng. His golden pupils were suffused with a terrifying energy. It was extremely dangerous!
The scarlet flying knife on Chu Feng's body was already glowing in the dark. He was ready to strike at any moment. No matter how extraordinary this Golden Lion King was, he would not hold back as long as they were enemies.
Of course, if he could reasonably avoid becoming enemies with such an expert, he would naturally not take action.
He did not want to cause trouble, but he was not afraid of it either!
The Golden Lion King's attitude was unclear as it circled around Chu Feng. Its terrifying aura was still fluctuating like the vast ocean. Soon after, its pupils became even more glaring, like two small suns.
Yellow cattle and the black yak knew that things were not looking good. They were ready for battle.
"Oh, little lion, you're here too." At this moment, an aged voice rang out. An old man walked over from the end of the street.
He was very old, and his curled hair was already snow white. However, his dark blue eyes were still deep, and his face was also very rosy. He was also hale and hearty.
This was an old man from the west. As soon as he appeared, the Golden Lion King's body tensed up. Its pupils rapidly contracted as it took a few steps back.
"Schiller." The Golden Lion King spoke. He was extremely fearful of Schiller. Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept a safe distance.
The old man named Schiller smiled and nodded at him before slowly approaching.
The Golden Lion King also smiled and returned to normal. He then turned around and patted Chu Feng's shoulder. He gave him a deep look and immediately left.
At the corner of the street, the Dhole King and Panther King appeared to welcome the Golden Lion King. The two were very disappointed and quickly left with him.
Chu Feng's eyes burst out with divine light. The Lion King just now was indeed coming for him. It was the Dhole King and Panther King who had invited him.
"Thank you, senior." Chu Feng said to the old man. He knew that this old man had good intentions in scaring away the Lion King.
"We're all humans. It's no trouble at all. There's no need to say too much." Schiller laughed and also left.
Ovidius took a deep breath and said, "You guys have to be careful of the experts in the city. Don't provoke them for no reason."
The Black Dragon King, Undead Phoenix King, Arctic King, Silvermoon Wolf King, and Schiller were the most powerful existences in the Vatican. They had all severed six shackles.
Schiller was the old man from just now. It was said that he came from the Holy See and was known as the last knight. He was incomparably familiar with this city.
Chu Feng and Yellow Cattle were both alarmed. It was truly astonishing to see so many peerless experts gathered in a single city.
The streets were paved with smooth stones, without a speck of dust on them. The buildings along the streets were built in the style of a thousand years ago, simple and dignified.
"The Elder Lion King didn't come?" the black yak asked.
"No, it's already chaotic enough with this Golden Lion around," Ovidius replied. Even an old knight like Schiller with six severed shackles wouldn't dare to touch him.
Chu Feng discovered that he had established his might in this battle and saved him a lot of trouble. At the very least, ordinary king level entities wouldn't dare to cause trouble. However, the Golden Lion King and the Qilin King were definitely not among them.
This was especially true for that Golden Lion King from just now.
The black yak was indignant and said, "Find an opportunity to skin it. Was that a silent threat just now? If it wasn't for old man Schiller, it might've attacked already. "
The divine city was very large. Some of the buildings glowed from time to time, and the sounds of prayers could be heard coming from the churches.
Ovidius told them that this was the sound of a thousand years ago, engraved into the ancient walls.
Finally, they walked into the center of the divine city. There was a medicinal garden there that was enveloped by a layer of light. It was as if a large glowing bowl had been placed on the ground, preventing anyone from entering.
This was the Sacred Medicinal Garden, the most astonishing place in the Vatican. All the king level entities had come for it!
It was verdant and lush. The plants in the garden were all sparkling and glistening. Their entire bodies were translucent and emitting an astonishing amount of vitality. It was obvious at a glance that they were divine species.
There was a small, dark green tree that was only as tall as a person. However, its trunk was upright and strong, and there was only a single fruit between its leaves — a golden peach. It swayed in the gentle breeze and blossomed with golden radiance.
Just the sight of it was enough to move one's heart. This was no ordinary fruit.
On the other side, there was an ancient red tree that was three meters tall. From its branches to its leaves to its roots, it was as if it had been carved out of red agate. There were a few flower buds as big as the mouth of a bowl that were currently in full bloom. They were surrounded by a scarlet mist and suffused with a red mist. Needless to say, this was a divine flower!
Not far away, there was a purple vine that was coiled around a huge boulder. At the end of the vine was a purplish-golden fruit the size of an infant's fist.
Looking inside, there was an ancient tree that was more than ten meters tall. Its entire body was silvery white, and there were actually snow-white flower buds that were more than a meter in diameter on its branches.
…
At this moment, Chu Feng, Yellow Cattle, and the black yak's eyes were wide open. A casual glance was enough to see more than a dozen divine plants.
Yellow Cattle asserted that any of the plants they had just seen was enough to allow them to evolve and improve their strength!
No wonder so many king level entities had rushed over. Who wouldn't be tempted by the growth of such divine plants?
Moreover, this was only the outer region of the medicinal garden. The deeper parts were hazy and couldn't be seen clearly. They could only vaguely see the silhouettes of a few ancient trees.
"There are people on those ancient trees?" Chu Feng was astonished.
Through the hazy light, they could see the ancient branches swaying. It was as if there were some humanoid creatures hanging from them.
Unfortunately, they couldn't see them clearly.
"They're not humans, they're fruits," Ovidius informed.
At first, they saw the silhouettes of flowers, but as time passed, the flowers bloomed, withered, and finally, human-shaped fruits grew out!
This was too astonishing!
"There's something even more astonishing. Look over there."
Ovidius led the three of them a dozen steps forward and looked from another direction. There were a few withered old trees in the medicinal garden. They had very few leaves, and some of their roots were exposed on the ground. The scene was astonishing.
"What are those things?!" Even the black yak was stunned.
The roots of these ancient trees were connected to living beings!
One of the ancient trees had more of its roots exposed on the ground, so they could see it most clearly. There was a lady with her back facing the group, revealing her snow-white back and long golden hair.
She was lying there, and the lower half of her body was still buried in the ground. There was a root connected to her body — she had grown out from the ground!
"What's going on?" Even Chu Feng was flabbergasted.
Although he used to talk nonsense to the three seeds in the stone box, saying that he would grow the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens, it was only a joke. He didn't think it would come true.
But now, these ancient trees had really grown living beings!
Chu Feng looked at the Yellow Cattle, wanting to hear its opinion.
"This sacred medicinal garden is similar to the area in the depths of Kunlun that we can't enter. There are holy trees reviving, but the things growing out of them … are incomprehensible!"
Even the Yellow Cattle couldn't completely understand it. It couldn't determine whether the roots were connected to living beings or fruits.
"When will this boundary disappear?" the black yak asked. He was a bit impatient and wanted nothing more than to kill his way in and pluck the mysterious fruits.
With so many ancient trees bearing fruits or blooming flowers, this was the best time to do so.
And in the depths of the medicinal garden, there was an area that couldn't be seen. Who knew what was growing there?
"The boundary isn't stable. At this point, the sacred medicinal garden could open at any time," Ovidius said.
"In fact, we've tried to kill our way in but suffered great losses." He pointed towards the medicinal garden, hinting for them to take a closer look.
"Eh?"
Chu Feng noticed that in front of an ancient tree, there was a large rusty sword stuck in the ground. Only a small part of it was exposed to the ground; it seemed to be an antique.
In another area, he saw a spear. It was originally golden, but now it had lost its luster and sharpness.
There were six or seven weapons in all directions. All of them were ancient objects that had existed for countless years.
"These weapons are terrifying. Let's not talk about the others. Just take the large sword under the ancient tree as an example. It looks rusty, but last time, it automatically rose from the ground and released a resplendent radiance, cutting the beast king in half!" Ovidius said solemnly.
Not to mention the other weapons, this large sword alone had killed a beast king and left a terrifying wound on the Chilin King's body.
Chu Feng was shaken!
The two oxen were also astonished. They had to be careful of the ancient weapons once they entered.
But when they turned to another direction, they saw several ancient trees glowing. Each of them had bowl-sized flowers blooming with auspicious colors.
"A single flower bud can allow us to evolve. These are divine petals." Yellow cattle was drooling.
"There are some miraculous scenes that you guys can't see now. When we entered, we discovered a certain area in the depths. Pollen filled the sky and gushed out multicolored light. Sigh, it's a pity we couldn't get close at that time!" Ovidius sighed regretfully.
The pollen condensed into a glowing mist and did not disperse into the distance.
Even Chu Feng was moved. He wanted nothing more than to kill his way in.
At this time, they saw a lady.
Her black hair hung loosely behind her slender figure. She was currently gazing at the sacred medicinal garden. They could only see the side of her beautiful figure without any flaws. She should be a beauty.
She turned around. In the blink of an eye, raging black flames engulfed her. She emitted a terrifying aura and surged towards the group.
Ovidius's expression changed. He hurriedly pulled Chu Feng's group back.
"Undead Phoenix King!" he whispered, informing Chu Feng's group.
"How many of you were loitering outside my residence?" the lady spoke. Although her voice was pleasant, it was extremely cold.
"We were deceived. Someone wants to harm us," Chu Feng replied.
Boom!
A mass of raging black flames transformed into a spirit serpent on the ground. It rapidly approached, intending to engulf Chu Feng's group.
Yellow cattle's body tensed up. One had to know that this was an entity with six severed shackles. She was known as the Undead Phoenix King!
Chu Feng held the diamond chakram in his hand, ready to strike at any moment!
However, the black flames finally stopped advancing and gradually retreated.
On the other side, a white-haired middle-aged man appeared. He smiled at the Phoenix King and said, "The sacred medicinal garden will open at any moment. The Phoenix King must conserve his energy."
The raging flames danced around the black-haired lady's body as she turned to leave.
"Many thanks, Arctic King!" Ovidius expressed his gratitude.
"Don't mention it. The Phoenix King actually had no intention of attacking." The Arctic King laughed. His white hair was very eye-catching. He nodded at Chu Feng's group and left just like that.
The Arctic King, the Black Dragon, Schiller, the Undead Phoenix, and the Silvermoon Wolf King were currently the strongest forces in the Vatican. They could be considered peerless experts.
They came from different places — some from the North Pole, some from the Mongolian Steppe, and some from the most terrifying existences in Europe.
"I want to become stronger!" the black yak roared.
In truth, Chu Feng and Yellow cattle were also incomparably anxious. They wanted to enter the sacred medicinal garden and begin their evolutionary journey.
After going around in a big circle, they finally had a better understanding of the Vatican and the situation in the medicinal garden. The boundary here was unstable, and there was an opportunity to barge in at any time.
Finally, Chu Feng's group, accompanied by Ovidius, chose a place to stay and waited for an opportunity.
Two days later, the opportunity arrived!
