The starry skies were silent and there was nothing left. The bronze coffin that was drifting toward the edge of the universe and the figures that had disappeared never again appeared in this world.
In the end, this place became completely silent.
Chu Feng stood in the hall and gazed at the receding starry skies. That place had once again become hazy and indistinct, becoming the roof of the stone palace.
Everything had disappeared, but Chu Feng's heart was unable to calm down. It was as though he had traversed many years and experienced a journey of time. It was exceptionally heavy, difficult to forget and erase.
"You've passed the last trial. The conditions are met. You may activate the inheritance."
It was at this time that an emotionless, mechanical voice rang out beside Chu Feng's ears. Perhaps it could be said that it was a spiritual wave in his heart.
An energy pagoda appeared here. It was even more dilapidated and seemed to be made of black technology. It had been paying close attention to everything about Chu Feng. His thoughts and even his brainwaves were clearly captured.
From bloodline to spirit, all sorts of ineffable indicators were clearly sensed by it. It believed that Chu Feng had met the pre-set standards and could be allowed to try.
"Do you want to activate the inheritance?" The dilapidated energy pagoda asked coldly. It lacked warmth and didn't seem to know how to be flexible.
"Will I obtain everything smoothly after activating it?" Chu Feng asked.
"No, it's a narrow escape, but you can choose to withdraw at every stage," the dark red energy pagoda replied.
"Activate!" Chu Feng replied without the slightest hesitation.
"Chi!"
In an instant, the damaged dark red energy pagoda pierced through a tunnel. It was like a narrow wormhole and directly sent Chu Feng into it.
His expression was solemn and solemn. He took a step forward and appeared in a large ring-shaped pit. This place was like the moon with dim starlight.
It was completely silent here. There were only rows of rocks scattered haphazardly in front of him.
His heart trembled violently the moment he walked over. That was because there were symbols on every rock. Those were domain characters. What entered his eyes was exactly what he wanted!
Chu Feng focused all of his attention and didn't dare miss a single detail. He observed these seemingly everlasting rocks and memorized all the symbols on them.
There was no need to worry about not being able to recognize them. A spiritual wave would linger around him during this period and inform him of the meaning of these domain symbols and their uses.
This was simply an experienced great teacher, directly imparting his knowledge to Chu Feng. This was something impossible in the past. No one had ever explained it to Chu Feng before. He had to rely on his own experience to figure it out.
It was the first time in his life that someone was imparting Dao to him. The explanation was very detailed, but the speed was very fast. Every time he swept past a rock, the spiritual wave would only be demonstrated once.
If he could memorize it, he would. If he couldn't, no one would repeat it for him.
Chu Feng hungrily memorized the symbols on every rock and branded them in the depths of his soul. Now that he understood, he understood. This made his spirit happy, and a smile appeared on his face.
There were some things that he had studied before, but he didn't fully understand them. Now that someone had enlightened him, he understood everything.
There were simply too many domain symbols.
Chu Feng's speed gradually slowed down, and the time he spent in front of each rock grew longer and longer. He was digesting and absorbing, and was not in a hurry to memorize everything.
He wasn't just memorizing everything. He was thoroughly understanding everything and would often let out a knowing smile. That was a sign of his spirit's delight and resonance.
In the end, the symbols flickered one after another. Chu Feng walked from the first rock to the last. He didn't know how much time had passed, but he felt that he had learned everything.
"Are you willing to withdraw?"
At this time, that cold voice rang out once again. The dark red energy pagoda accompanied him the entire time and appeared silently within the ring-shaped pit.
Apparently, this was the first stage. It could be considered to have come to an end, and Chu Feng had the right to withdraw from this place.
"No!" He shook his head. This was the first step, and he still had to continue.
But he found it strange that the dark red energy pagoda was silent after hearing this. It no longer paid him any attention and didn't even ask him if he wanted to open the next inheritance.
Time passed by, but he was still unable to enter the second stage.
Chu Feng was puzzled and couldn't help but ask. He had already understood the domain symbols on these rocks, so why couldn't he continue? Why didn't it continue?
"Eh?" He noticed that the situation wasn't right. He gazed at the surroundings and the rocks. He even jumped up to higher ground and looked down at the area.
"These rocks …"
The rocks looked messy and disorderly, but upon closer inspection, one could clearly see the embryonic form of domains. Some of the rocks had even formed strange giant symbols after being grouped together.
Chu Feng's mind was shaken. The stage he had just completed only gave him the right to withdraw, but he was still far from the next stage. There were still some profound mysteries he hadn't comprehended and hadn't triggered.
At this moment, Chu Feng was arranging the rocks continuously and pondering over them in detail. Every time he formed a new domain symbol, a spiritual wave would echo and explain it to him once again.
This wasn't something he had created himself. Instead, it was a combination of the symbols he had learned before and a thorough understanding of the things he had been taught. Only then could he advance a step further.
In the end, he didn't just see the rocks but also a type of qi. It was the aura of a field, or field qi for short. According to the ancient records, this was a mysterious and mysterious thing.
Only those who had understood certain domains to a certain degree would be able to sense them at a glance. That was a type of glowing qi that was as thin as silk and as continuous as an endless stream.
To some domain researchers, seeing the field qi was the best affirmation of their work. It was something they yearned for even in their dreams!
Chu Feng gazed intently at the field qi. One thread after another was connected and wrapped around different rocks. There was a hint that they were related and formed a giant symbol.
In the end, as his understanding deepened, he could see that the entire area was interwoven with endless glowing threads like a spider web.
Perhaps it could be said that it was more like the interweaving veins of a river of stars.
After Chu Feng finished his comprehension, he understood the various domain symbols here. He even had matured models and constructed many small modules.
There were defensive modules, offensive modules …
Chu Feng deduced and engraved them in his heart. He only stopped after confirming that he couldn't see anything else and that he couldn't comprehend anything further.
"You've completed the first stage of the foundational chapter. Do you want to continue and open the inheritance?" The mechanical voice rang out. However, it was no longer as cold as before.
"Continue!" Chu Feng nodded.
He didn't know that exceeding was a kind of evaluation. It was a shocking affirmation!
Before this, the dark red energy pagoda would give a star evaluation. One star was already considered a pass, while five stars were considered excellent and could be considered an excellent inheritor.
After Chu Feng had completed all this, it didn't give him any stars and instead gave him an evaluation of exceeding.
"Your performance in the first stage was outstanding and you've completed everything in excess. In view of this, I have no choice but to warn you that it might be dangerous if you're still as stunning in the second stage. You might even lose your life."
The dark red energy pagoda's tone slowed down and actually spoke more words. It was no longer as cold as before.
Chu Feng was startled. Was this an affirmation and a high evaluation of him? Only at this point did he notice that this cold and emotionless energy pagoda was somewhat gentle toward him.
"Thank you!"
Chu Feng expressed his gratitude.
With a swoosh, the damaged dark red energy pagoda pierced through a small wormhole and sent Chu Feng inside.
When Chu Feng walked out from within, his blood vessels expanded and his hair stood up in anger. His whole body was trembling.
This was still a large ring-shaped crater. If nothing unexpected happened, it was still on the moon.
A horseman clad in black and gold armor was laughing sinisterly as he chased after a group of women and children with an iron spear in his hand. He stabbed forward fiercely and, with a pfft, picked up a youth of twelve or thirteen years old and sent him flying. Then, with a violent jolt, the youth let out a blood-curdling scream as he was torn into pieces.
Wasn't this the scene Chu Feng had seen when he looked up from the palace? It was actually happening right now!?
"Animal!" Chu Feng shouted loudly. His eyes were about to split open as his spiritual fluctuations surged. He immediately took out the diamond chakram and was about to strike out.
However, the dark red energy pagoda's mechanical voice rang out once again, "Use domains to kill the enemy. Learn and apply. You must maintain a calm heart under all circumstances!"
Chu Feng discovered that although he was holding the diamond chakram, he couldn't throw it out. It had been restricted.
He immediately became clear-headed and glanced at the surroundings. There were all kinds of magnetic stones on the ground. He moved quickly and took a step forward. Many of the magnetic stones jumped up as he rapidly carved them with his fingers like knives.
Then, like raindrops, the magnets flew forward with a pitter patter.
However, it was already too late. An old woman was trampled by the sinister-looking horseman and fell into a pool of blood.
Was this something from the past or was it really happening now? Chu Feng felt his body go cold and then his blood surged with anger. It was impossible to rely on him to carve the magnetic stones manually. He couldn't keep up with the horseman's speed.
"Imprint!"
The next moment, Chu Feng's forehead lit up. His spiritual energy condensed into a beam of light which penetrated his bones and shone down on the ground. He was using his spiritual energy to imprint domain runes and enter the various magnetic stones.
Following which, he took a step forward and all the magnetic stones on the ground leapt up. They transformed into flowing lights and flew out, cutting off the horseman's path and enveloping him.
At this time, the horseman's ghastly white teeth and grim smile had already closed in. His iron spear was about to touch a four or five-year-old girl and was just a bit away from piercing through her.
She was very beautiful, but her little face was as pale as snow. There was despair and sorrow in her eyes as she gazed at her relatives lying in a pool of blood in the distance.
Chu Feng's heart was stifled. He seemed to have seen this scene under the starry skies before. This little girl's face was very familiar. He leapt up and pounced over. With his back against the iron spear, he picked up the little girl and rolled away.
Behind him, the horseman's cruel expression froze. That was because he couldn't stab out with this spear. The magnetic stones surrounded him and emitted a dazzling brilliance. They blocked him and formed a small offensive domain. With a boom, he was crushed and turned into a bloody mist.
Chu Feng embraced the little girl and felt her body temperature. She had tear stains and was still breathing. Those large tear-filled eyes and mournful little face were so pitiful that it made one's heart ache.
He was indescribably shaken!
This is a real body, so all of this is not a test? Not an illusion? His heart was trembling.
"Big brother, thank you!" The little girl looked up at him and expressed her gratitude in a weak manner. Then, strings of tears rolled down her cheeks as she gazed at her deceased relatives.
Soon after, she turned into a ball of light and disappeared from Chu Feng's embrace. That weak but grateful voice faded away amidst the rain of light. "Thank you …"
"This …" Chu Feng stood up and watched as the rain of light drifted into the starry skies. He felt somewhat disappointed and frustrated as if his heart was about to enter the boundless sea of stars.
Then, his eyes were blazing as he stared into the distance. There were armored horsemen galloping unhindered and numerous figures. All of them were pursuers and executioners.
Many women and children were fleeing for their lives. The helpless cries of young children made one's heart ache. The crooked figures of the disabled elders made one's heart feel stifled.
"Kill!" Chu Feng let out a low roar like a wounded beast. He let out a mournful howl and charged forward. He wanted to fight and threw himself into it wholeheartedly.
However, he didn't lose his cool and maintained a clear mind.
