"The Fallen Phoenix Hill is too dangerous. It wasn't easy to open up a path with the Heavenly Ladder and suppress the danger. Don't touch that ladder so easily. We'll think of another way to deal with the domains in this area."
The group of people felt a headache coming on. Although their eyes were fiery, they didn't dare approach the small tree in the central divine land. Although the distance wasn't very far, the earth and rocks would flash with frightening runes from time to time. They were discussing countermeasures in low voices.
The soil where the small tree had taken root was granular and would gush out from time to time with red, golden, purple, and other earthen qi. These energies intertwined with the half-buried golden box.
Chu Feng's heart was burning with passion. Apart from the great medicine, the soil here was astonishing. It contained vitality and special energy that far surpassed the famed mountains in the outside world. Perhaps it could allow the three seeds in his body to sprout here.
He looked forward to these three seeds more than anything else. After all, even the stone box was used to store the three mysterious seeds.
Chu Feng observed for a moment and found that these people were all focused on the immortal medicine and didn't pay too much attention to this side. They had relaxed their vigilance towards the path of retreat.
He quietly retreated and arrived before the Heavenly Ladder. He wanted to see if he could successfully put it away and cut off the group's path of retreat.
However, he didn't act blindly without thinking. This kind of domain secret treasure had now transformed into a ladder and was placed horizontally on the Fallen Phoenix Hill. It would probably take some effort to put it away and cause a great commotion.
After all, this was the Fallen Phoenix Hill. Terrifying incidents could happen at any time, so it wasn't advisable to move carelessly.
Moreover, it wasn't worth it to alarm that group of people now. Even if he forcefully put away the Heavenly Ladder, he might not be able to complete it before they arrived.
Chu Feng bided his time and laid in ambush here. He would wait for them to open up the path to the divine medicine and attack at the critical moment.
"Everyone, you must work hard and overcome this difficulty. I'll wait for you to succeed!"
Chu Feng hid himself and prayed for them in secret, wishing them success in their mission.
There weren't many plants in this area, but all of them possessed strange phenomena. They were translucent like agate and jade and possessed a lustrous luster. Moreover, they were overflowing with strands of energy.
Golden ginseng was growing in the cracks of the rocks, blossoming with radiance. It was as thick as a radish, and Chu Feng's eyes were glued to it. Just how nutritious was this thing?
In the distance, there was a jujube tree that was four feet tall. Its leaves were green and lush, but it was covered in purple jujubes, giving off a sweet fragrance. However, the thorns on the jujube tree were also quite shocking and extremely sharp.
"Ah!" someone shouted.
An old man wanted to pull out a ginseng that looked like a golden radish, but he was hit when he passed by the jujube tree.
An expanse of sparkling purple thorns flew out from that jujube tree, impaling him. Even the space between his brows had a fine bloody hole, passing through his brain, killing him on the spot.
"Oh no, be careful!"
A domain researcher shouted loudly, warning them not to move recklessly.
Boom!
Not far away, a walnut tree shone. No one touched it, but it took the initiative to erupt with power. The fruits on it were both silver and golden. Among them, the golden ones had long since ripened. Some flew out, exploding with terrifying energy that surpassed most nuclear weapons.
The group of old men was sent flying. Some were covered in blood, while others were in tatters. It was a miserable sight.
Fortunately, the golden walnuts were very targeted after flying out. They exploded for a short period of time, and the mushroom cloud had just risen. The shockwave hadn't even spread in all directions when it was absorbed by the domains here.
But this also formed a terrifying scene. More and more runes appeared on the ground as the domains were activated.
A total of three old men died.
The group's faces were ashen. The plants here couldn't be approached because they were all mutated species.
The seemingly peaceful pure land was filled with killing intent at every step. The group of old men had gloomy expressions. They observed carefully and confirmed that the plants here could all be used as tools of war.
Chu Feng was secretly apprehensive as he sat on the green bamboo boat. Fortunately, there was this group of people opening the way in front. Otherwise, he would have suffered greatly if he had gone to dig up the "radish".
"There's no other way. We can only use the magnetic powder. It's just that … I really can't bear to use it."
A domain master from the Deity race sighed. He carefully removed the spatial bracelet on his wrist and took out some sparkling and translucent powder from within. It was bright red and glistening.
In the distance, Chu Feng was quite astonished. The Deity race was indeed worthy of being one of the top ten races. They had accumulated countless years and possessed shocking foundations.
The so-called magnetic powder was a mutated substance within the divine magnetic ore. It was also a companion of the divine magnetic and could effectively weaken the divine magnetic's energy and special effects.
But this thing was extremely rare. Divine magnetic was a priceless item and very difficult to find. It was difficult to find a divine magnetic ore even on a resource-rich planet, and this companion was even rarer. It was already quite good if one out of ten divine magnetic ores produced magnetic powder.
At the same time, the domain master took out some small flags. Those were domain breaking flags. He smeared the scarlet powder on them in order to paralyze the domains in this area.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …
Eight triangular flags flew out and stuck into the ground in the distance. They were all bright red as they were smeared with magnetic powder.
As expected, the symbols on the ground dimmed and finally disappeared.
"Not enough. Bring some more!" Another domain master spoke. He felt that there was still danger and didn't dare to step forward rashly.
Following which, another eight domain breaking flags flew out and were also smeared with red powder. They were inserted into the pure land and formed a safe passage to the divine tree.
Chu Feng immediately stood up and waited solemnly. The Deity race was rich and overbearing. They actually had such a method to use the rare magnetic powder to paralyze the domains here. It seemed they might succeed.
Swoosh!
An old man strode forward and tried to probe the waters. It was very calm along the way, and he was actually rapidly approaching the center. He was only a hundred steps away from the small tree.
"Good!"
The people behind were delighted and excited. They stared at the immortal medicine and, of course, paid more attention to the golden box under the small tree.
Chi!
Suddenly, symbols appeared on this supposedly safe path once again. The domains began to awaken and emit terrifying energy.
"Save me!" the old man cried out.
In the back, the domain master's expression changed. Although he was heartbroken, he still fished out a handful of magnetic powder and scattered it in front of him.
However, after the domain calmed down for a moment, it shone once again. With a pfft, a beam of energy flew out from the pure land and chopped off one of the old man's arms. Even his shoulder was sliced off, and it almost struck his head.
"Quick, don't use it sparingly. Scatter the magnetic powder and let him pluck the great medicine and bring it back to the golden box."
Another domain master roared, requesting to buy time for the old man leading the way so that he could survive.
Chi, chi, chi …
Patches of scarlet light scattered everywhere. That was magnetic powder. The people from the Deity race had used up all the stock in the spatial bracelet, causing the rugged and dangerous path to be dotted with specks of red light in many places.
It was finally peaceful. This area no longer emitted a terrifying energy aura.
The one-armed old man turned into a beam of light. A hundred steps was too close for him. He arrived in front of the divine tree with a single step and was about to pluck the fruit.
Pfft!
At the last moment, a vine beside the small tree suddenly stood up like a spear and pierced toward him like a bolt of lightning. It was as though it had a life of its own.
In a split second, blood splattered everywhere. The old man's chest was pierced by a dark vine and he was lifted up on the spot. At the same time, a mechanical voice rang out.
"After examination, the bloodline does not match. The race is hostile. You are not a native of this planet. You have been invaded by a great enemy of the past!"
An energy pagoda appeared in the pure land. It was as black as ink and was the same color as the vine. It was precisely this pagoda that was emitting spiritual energy fluctuations.
Just like in the Qinling Mountains, one had to undergo a bloodline test to distinguish one's genes and physique in order to obtain everything in the pure land. This old man from the Deity race had been rejected.
"Behead the deity!"
The black inheritance energy pagoda emitted a demonic glow. Along with the last three words, the thirty-six connected mountain peaks in the distance began to emit a faint glow.
"Run!"
Outside the pure land, the domain master was incomparably terrified. He roared at the one-armed old man with a deathly pale face.
Chi!
One of the thirty-six mountain peaks was like the head of a deity opening its mouth. A crack appeared on the mountain and a dazzling beam of light flew out into the pure land.
With a pfft, the one-armed old man's head tumbled down. Following which, it began to burn and turned into a pile of ashes. Both his body and soul were destroyed.
That was a terrain that could even kill a saint. Who knew how terrifying it would be after being arranged into a domain. Naturally, it would be easy to kill an evolver two levels above the visualization realm.
Moreover, that wasn't all. The sixteen domain breaking flags all exploded under the divine light and vanished into thin air. Only the magnetic powder on the ground didn't disappear.
Chi!
At the same time, the divine light that had flown out from the deity's head rotated like a spiraling flood dragon. It strangled the two domain masters and eight elders who had approached the pure land. Their heads rolled and were finally burned to ashes.
Those standing at the edge of the area felt a chill run through their bodies. That light was too fast and they couldn't react in time. If it had attacked them, they would have been completely annihilated!
"We were just one step away from success, but in the end … so many people died. How regretful and hateful! We need to go out and capture a native. His bloodline will definitely match the requirements of this place. In a while, we'll come back to obtain the inheritance and pick the immortal medicine. "
An elder from the Deity race said furiously. The people from the Netherworld race were also ashen. Just now, five of their people had been beheaded and died here.
"Even if we bring some natives, we might not succeed. This place is too strange. With the black energy pagoda leading the way and the legendary deity's head topography, it'll turn into a land of death if we're not careful!"
They were discussing with furrowed brows and all of them were incomparably depressed. If the Fallen Phoenix Hill behind them were to be activated, it would make them feel even more despair.
Fortunately, the Heavenly Ladder could temporarily suppress it.
Chu Feng retreated quietly and made preparations in secret. He was rather excited because his opportunity had arrived if things went smoothly enough!
Once these people retreated and were slightly careless, he would be prepared to intercept and kill them. He would take the risk of flipping over the Heavenly Ladder and send them on their way first.
At that time, he could calmly go to the pure land to pick the great medicine. His bloodline should meet the requirements, so it was expected that he could obtain the inheritance in the golden box.
The only uncertain risk was that the Fallen Phoenix Hill was too terrifying. Would activating the Heavenly Ladder lead to a backlash?
