CHAPTER 400: CHAPTER 400
The Qilin's Former Lair
Giant rocks lay in disarray in front of him. This place was like a stone formation suffused with white mist. It would be easy to get lost if one were to charge in rashly.
This was the qilin's former lair, the former residence of the auspicious beast.
Chu Feng wandered around the place. It was quite large and occupied a vast area. There were giant rocks and small rocks piled up together in clusters.
This place was simply like a labyrinth, because regardless of whether it was the boulders or the clusters of rocks, many of them were similar. Together with the special energy substance — — immortal mist that surged continuously, ordinary people would definitely lose their sense of direction if they walked in.
Chu Feng was sure that there were domains within. The interior of this place was like a natural ghostly labyrinth. Evolvers would be trapped if they weren't careful.
The qilin's former lair was half-destroyed, but the damaged domains and large areas of stone piled up here were still full of mysteries.
"There are a lot of extraterrestrials here!"
Chu Feng walked around in a circle and sensed wave after wave of vital magnetic fields.
This area of giant rocks and rubble was about the size of a giant city. Just the periphery was filled with mutant trees and fruits.
Among them, there were some that could allow one to sever their sixth shackle.
"The qilin's lair is indeed rich in natural resources!" Chu Feng sighed. But now, it had been occupied by the descenders. A group of extraterrestrials had been hiding here for a long time.
Doubtlessly, there were great fortunes in the depths of this divine beast lair. Otherwise, they wouldn't have stayed here and refused to leave.
If they only wanted to sleep, they could always find a good place to do so.
Chu Feng moved stealthily and drifted into the rubble like a specter. He was now approaching the lair.
The place was indeed quite large with numerous rubble piles and dense mist. Moreover, he could see a thatched cottage or stone house every thousand meters. All of them were inhabited by extraterrestrials.
There were also mutant trees growing near some of the stone houses.
"What a good place!" Chu Feng sighed inwardly.
This area was even more powerful than those famed mountains. At the very least, it had recovered to a higher degree at this stage. The medicinal herbs and mutant trees were all overflowing with vitality.
The deeper he went, the greater the energy density and the more luxuriant the mutant trees became.
Up until now, Chu Feng had discovered more than ten residences, which also meant that there were more than ten descenders, and this was only the tip of the iceberg.
He shivered. The number of aliens who had come to Earth in the past 22 years was really not small!
However, they had remained silent for so many years. They could really endure it.
"It seems like some of these descenders know about domains and have effectively avoided some dangerous areas."
Chu Feng discovered that wherever there were domains, there were no thatched cottages or stone houses. It was very spacious with only a few mutant trees growing.
In some places, the mutant trees were full of fruits, the fragrance assailing the nostrils, but no one went to pick them.
Chu Feng was tempted, but he didn't dare to act rashly.
"That's …" His pupils constricted. There was a region where the white fog was very thick. There were no rocks, and it was very spacious. There were no aliens either.
There was a snow-white bamboo forest there. There was an old bamboo that was extremely thick, snow-white like jade. There was a bunch of fruits on it that looked like a bunch of mutton fat grapes.
It was truly odd. There was only one old bamboo in the entire bamboo forest that had produced fruits like a bunch of white grapes. The fragrance it emitted was extremely refreshing.
"This bunch of fruits can help one sever at least seven shackles," Chu Feng judged.
His eyes were burning with passion as he immediately put his thoughts into action. He walked step by step into the forest. He knew this place was very dangerous. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so spacious and devoid of extraterrestrials.
But riches were sought amidst danger. He longed to evolve and wanted to pick that string of mutton fat fruits.
Apparently, this string of fruits, together with the thunderstruck wood and toad blood, was enough to refine a batch of treasured medicine in the Revered Eight Trigrams Furnace. It would allow him to sever his ninth shackle and evolve once more.
As long as he could pick that string of snow-white fruits on this old bamboo, Chu Feng's trip wouldn't have been in vain. He could retire after accomplishing his mission.
It was worth the risk to refine treasured medicine and allow him to evolve!
Chu Feng approached and entered the bamboo forest. Within moments, he felt the world spin around him. Even as a domain researcher, he was terrified.
The domains here were somewhat frightening. He had just entered and almost lost himself. It could interfere with one's spiritual magnetic field.
Swoosh!
Chu Feng carved magnetic stones and tossed them in all directions.
Within moments, the white mist in the area became even denser and engulfed him and the bamboo forest. Chu Feng hid his traces. He was worried that the extraterrestrials would discover him.
Afterwards, he sat down on the ground and sensed the earth energy in detail. He wanted to find a safe path and walk directly to that old bamboo.
Before long, his face turned slightly pale. This area was a corner of the qilin's lair covered by a damaged domain. It was extremely dangerous.
Chu Feng believed that one wrong step would consign him to eternal damnation. This bamboo forest could destroy one's physical body and erase one's spirit!
"It's extremely dangerous!" Chu Feng sighed. He felt somewhat distressed. He had a premonition that this string of snow-white fruits would be difficult to pick, but he didn't want to give up. He wanted to try.
If he could really pick it and bring it back to refine medicine, his strength would increase explosively!
Now that the world was in chaos and descenders were appearing continuously, nothing was more important than one's own strength in order to deal with the crisis.
One day, two days …
Chu Feng studied here for several days with a frown. He couldn't open up a path because this was a corner of the qilin's lair. Even if it was crippled, there were still unknown dangers.
On Mount Lao, Mu Qing was standing on the peak of a mountain. Her white clothes danced in the wind as she gazed at the vast blue ocean below. Her fair and beautiful face was quite calm.
"Fairy, we've confirmed several times that Han Wenze and Huang Weiyue are dead. They died on Mount Zhijin in Jiangning. It seems they were killed by the domains."
Someone came to report that the upper echelons of Celestial Biology had submitted to Mu Qing in just a few days and were doing their best to work for her.
"Stupid!" Mu Qing didn't turn back. This was her evaluation of Huang Weiyue and the others.
She had known that something had happened to them several days ago but didn't take any action.
"Chu Feng's attainments in domains are astonishing. If this goes on, he will become a disaster in the future. His progress is too fast," said Mu Qinghe.
There were two major powers in Celestial Biology, the Mu family and the Lin family.
Now, a maid of a heaven-chosen prince had successfully crossed over and unexpectedly had the same surname as the Mu family. An important figure of the Mu family, Mu Qinghe, had immediately submitted.
"It's not necessarily a domain strangulation," Mu Qing said indifferently.
"Is Chu Feng so powerful that he can already fight several experts with nine severed shackles? But there are indeed traces of domains being activated in that area, "Mu Qinghe said in a low voice.
Mu Qing didn't pay attention to his words and said to herself, "This Chu Feng is quite patient. I've been waiting for him on Mount Lao for four days and he actually hasn't appeared."
Mu Qinghe's expression turned cold. This woman was really calm. Was she waiting for Chu Feng to come to her?
"Chu Feng is very strong," he cautiously reminded.
"An ant-like thing. If he really comes, I can slap him to death with one slap!" This time, Mu Qing didn't hide her arrogance. She didn't need to put on a fake smile in front of her new confidant.
Mu Qinghe was scared. Just how strong was this beautiful woman? One had to know that she was just a maid of that prince.
"Well, even if he comes, I won't kill him. I'll just subdue him." Mu Qing revealed a faint smile. Then, she looked at a spiritual peak in the distance. That was Linnoy's residence.
Mu Qinghe's eyes flickered and said, "Fairy, if you're sure, you can kill your way to Kunlun, destroy Wudang, and flatten Mount Song. The people on these famous mountains are all related to Chu Feng."
"You're too selfish." Mu Qing glanced at him and said, "Chu Feng killed a son of yours named Mu in Mount Taihang, right?"
Mu Qinghe lowered his head. He knew that he wasn't the only one who had submitted. There were others, and he told Mu Qing some of his situations.
"I'll wait for him for two more days. If he still doesn't come, I'll go out for a walk," Mu Qing said calmly.
…
For five days, Chu Feng didn't succeed no matter how hard he tried. He couldn't pick the string of mutton-like grapes. He could only sigh and withdraw.
These five days, the qilin's lair was still very calm. The disappearance of the stone man and the large winged lizard didn't attract anyone's attention.
That was because this place had been too peaceful for the past 20 years. No one had ever dared to break in, and no one dared to act presumptuously. The guards outside rarely changed shifts.
Chu Feng discovered that it was still calm. He continued to explore.
He went deeper into the qilin's lair and continued his search.
There was a dense fog in the deepest part of the lair. There was a stone forest there, and it was also the place where the domains were the most intact. Chu Feng's pupils constricted from far away.
What did he see? The legendary qilin flower!
There were many clusters of flowers in the stone forest. They were purple and lustrous. The bowl-sized flower buds were in full bloom, and there were qilin patterns on the petals. It was extremely astonishing.
A faint fragrance wafted out. It wasn't that the flowers weren't strong enough. In fact, when they bloomed, multicolored light surged and broke through the dense fog. However, there was a domain shrouding it, so the true fragrance couldn't overflow. As for pollen, there was no need to even think about it.
"This is a qilin flower! It's priceless!" Chu Feng's eyes turned red. However, he couldn't enter and could only stare blankly.
This stone forest used to be the qilin's residence. It was an important place. Those were flowers produced by the qilin's blood energy and energy.
Unfortunately, no one could pick them. Even if there were many extraterrestrials living nearby, they couldn't do anything and could only stare blankly.
No one could take a single step into the most central stone forest of the qilin's lair. The true fortunes were all within, and some people even suspected that there were qilin youngsters inside.
There were some relatively large stone houses outside the stone forest. The most powerful extraterrestrials lived there.
Chu Feng walked around the central area from a great distance. He saw a rain of light rising from the stone forest from time to time. There was actually a medicinal field in front of him filled with rare divine plants.
He swallowed his saliva. Even though he didn't recognize them, he understood that they were definitely priceless rare herbs.
He couldn't charge in forcefully because the domains in the central area were the most terrifying. If he were to really set foot inside, his mind would probably be destroyed.
"Forget it, I'll endure and restrain myself!" Chu Feng sighed and suppressed the impulse in his heart. He didn't attempt to break the domains. He couldn't even step foot into the bamboo forest outside, let alone here.
In the end, he chose to approach a stone house. There was an old tree in front of the house with a number of scarlet agate fruits growing on it.
Some of the fruits on the tree had ripened while others were still a bit short of maturity.
Chu Feng believed that these fruits could allow one to sever the seventh shackle and could be harvested to refine medicine.
The stone house here was a safe zone.
Chu Feng guessed that these fruits had long since lost their use to the owner of the stone house. Otherwise, they wouldn't have allowed them to grow like this without being picked.
The creatures in the house were all in deep sleep.
Chu Feng silently drifted over and hid within the white mist. It was quite convenient for him to move about.
Afterwards, he began to pick the mutant fruits. There were six in total, both ripe and unripe. He plucked all of them in one go!
To him, this signified an evolution. It would allow his strength to increase explosively!
