In a hundred years, the ordinary people of this world had already been completely replaced. Even some weaker evolvers had died of old age.
In this fallen land, ordinary evolvers had short lifespans. Their lifespans would increase as their cultivation increased. However, they would reach the end of their lives at the age of six or seven hundred even after becoming a god.
"A hundred years."
Chu Feng sighed lightly. He felt an indescribable sense of vicissitudes. An era had passed, and a hundred years of mortals had replaced each other. Many of the marks of life no longer existed.
"Life is too small and insignificant."
He looked up at the sky. The sun and moon existed forever, and the vault of heaven remained the same. Gazing into the distance, the earth was thick and heavy. It bore the weight of millions of lives. No matter how time slipped away or how many years erased it, it would always be here.
Even a rock on the ground could last for a long time, far surpassing all kinds of life.
Life was a miracle, but it was also fragile. Looking at the entire world, it would disappear if one wasn't careful.
"A hundred years. Only Yaoyao and I should be left, right?"
Chu Feng had long since understood that souls that hadn't experienced the baptism of divine beast blood couldn't stay for long in this world full of yang qi. They would be corroded and burned by yang qi. Even if they cultivated unceasingly, they would at most last twenty to thirty years. At most, it would be forty to fifty years.
Now that he thought about it, he hadn't seen Yuan Shicheng, the Undead Silkworm Prince, and Yuan Yuan ever since they separated in this world. They should have returned long ago.
Even Ying Zhexian, the black yak, and Qin Luoyin had returned for decades.
Although he knew he could see them again in the original universe, Chu Feng now felt like the blue seas had turned into mulberry fields. He experienced the parting of life and death in this world.
"It's worth being vigilant. You must know how to cherish returning to the original universe."
Chu Feng's soul light was powerful. He had almost touched the quasi-saint realm. There were sparkling and translucent threads around his body. Those were laws and order. They were incomplete, but they were connected to him.
This was the path of a quasi-saint!
But Chu Feng didn't dare to truly capture them. He didn't dare to fuse them into his body. He was afraid that by any chance he would have an epiphany, become a quasi-saint, and return to Dameng Pure Land, his corporeal body would be burnt to a pile of ashes.
If it were anyone else, they would cultivate with all their might, comprehend the laws of heaven and earth, and capture the lines of order in hopes of becoming a saint. However, he was restraining himself in fear of breaking through.
His dazzling soul light was connected to many sparkling and translucent lines of order. This wasn't Chu Feng's greatest harvest.
His strongest point at the moment was the steady increase in his attainments in the field of domains. He had spent most of his time in this field during the past hundred years, pondering over various complicated terrains and arranging domains.
Chu Feng had become stronger. He had advanced from the middle stage of the grandmaster realm to the late stage. Recently, he had made the most crucial breakthrough and became a great grandmaster!
There weren't many domains. from master to grandmaster, then grandmaster, and then grandmaster.
Once they reached the Saint Expert level, then they would be terrifying. They could effectively and directly get rid of saints!
Now that Chu Feng was a great grandmaster, he was no longer afraid of quasi-saints. At the very least, he could slaughter entities of this level with his domain techniques.
Of course, he had to be fully prepared. After all, he was only an early stage Grandmaster.
Chu Feng stood on the mountain ridge. It was autumn again, and the mountains and plains were covered with yellow leaves. The autumn wind was bleak, and every time it swept past, the leaves would fall all over the sky.
Chu Feng's soul light was strong, but he couldn't stand steadily. He could vaguely feel an indescribable spatial force pulling him up from the ground and leaving this world.
He knew it was the vortex's energy!
This world was rejecting him, and the vortex was calling him. It had been too long, and this world was pushing him away. It wanted to send him back to his original universe.
"I'm not willing to leave just like this." Chu Feng had said he would pick a divine medicine for Yaoyao, but he hadn't put it into action yet.
He glanced at Yaoyao. She was still in seclusion and hadn't appeared. The soul light there was boundless. Strands of it could escape through the domains and intertwine with the divine chains of order, forming a terrifying pressure.
Yaoyao had become stronger again!
"Divine medicine!" Chu Feng spread out the old animal skin map. He wanted to pick a divine medicine for Yaoyao to help her cultivate.
He was already a great grandmaster. It was difficult for the domains of this world to stop his footsteps, but once he picked a divine medicine, it was very likely to alarm the gods. In that case, it would be incomparably dangerous. It would be difficult even if he wanted to leave!
At first, the gods didn't care about the sacred medicine, so it didn't matter if he picked it. But divine medicine was different. Even the gods would pay attention to it.
Chu Feng glanced at the mountain ridge and left some words for Yaoyao. Then, he left this place alone. He crossed the earth and moved by controlling the qi of the earth. He could travel thousands of miles in a flash.
He arrived at the Vicious Beast Plateau first and was stunned to find out about a major event that had happened in the past few decades.
The Moon Goddess had entered her later years and was eliminated. She was replaced by a new god who called herself the Dark Moon Goddess. The Moon Goddess' faction had been purged!
This was the land of the Fallen. It was incomparably cruel. Even gods would meet a tragic end once they entered their later years. They would be killed by covetous people.
In reality, they themselves had also ascended to their positions like this. Any divine throne was stained with blood and behind them were thousands of corpses.
The Moon Goddess was charming and outstanding at that time. She seemed pure and holy, but she had also ascended to her position by devouring an old god.
In reality, it wasn't only gods. Even ordinary evolvers were fighting and using mutant techniques to refine Divinity Granules after killing their opponents. They advanced in this way.
In short, this world was very cruel. The road to the rise of the strong was accompanied by blood.
"The Sorcerer God has also entered his later years. Only the Martial God is still considered strong. As expected, the change of the scepter on the Vicious Beast Plateau is a bloody storm."
Chu Feng paced back and forth here. After understanding enough, he felt that the Sorcerer God had already entered his later years and that his divine medicine garden was the ideal destination.
But he didn't make a move immediately. He hurried toward the abyss again because he wanted to see the situation of those divine beasts.
On the way to the wasteland where Qin Luoyin, the Little Daoist, Ying Zhexian, and the others had once resided, Chu Feng stopped slightly. Very soon, he was stunned because he saw a familiar creature here.
The yellow fur on that lame fox's entire body had almost fallen off. The latter half of its body had been petrified, but it was still alive and basking in the sun in front of a cliff.
This was a fox that called itself the Yang Realm Celestial Venerable.
Its eyes were slightly turbid. It already had one foot in the grave and its condition wasn't very good.
"Senior Celestial Venerable."
Chu Feng stopped and greeted it.
"You're …" The lame and petrified fox was slightly startled. After that, it came to a realization very quickly and said, "So it's you. You haven't left yet. This world really isn't that wonderful. Living here for another day means more danger in the future. How can it compare to your own universe?"
Chu Feng was astonished. This petrified fox knew a lot of things. Could it really be a Yang Realm Celestial Venerable?
"Then why haven't you left yet, Senior?" asked Chu Feng.
The yellow-furred fox laughed miserably. The latter half of its petrified body shifted slightly as it said, "I'm an abandoned chess piece. Someone threw me here. Where can I go? I might die if I leave this place."
"Senior, since you dare to call yourself a Celestial Venerable, who would dare to throw you here? Just go back," said Chu Feng.
He was very curious about this mysterious fox. Clearly, this stone fox had an extraordinary identity and had an extraordinary past.
"Go back?" The lame and petrified fox was slightly lost in thought. After that, its face was full of loneliness. It was very human-like and could truly and subtly display its emotions. It said with disappointment and heartache, "I can't go back."
After that, it became absent-minded and said, "The Yang Realm is very vast and boundless. Experts come forth in large numbers. Even a Celestial Venerable doesn't dare to say he's invincible. That's the true place where geniuses contend for hegemony. In other universes, such as here or the Yin Realm, the strongest geniuses that have been nurtured for many eras could only shine in a corner of the Yang Realm. When they truly step onto the big stage, they're still far from being able to compete with the inheritors nurtured by some old fellows or the disciples of some glorious orthodoxies. "The Yang Realm is too resplendent. There are only stronger and no strongest. Some almighty figures have gone into hibernation for who knows how many eras. Some sects have declined and been rebuilt. The orthodoxies within the monastery have changed one after another. But occasionally, the first ancestor of the first generation sects will come out alive from the most ancient layer of soil beneath the monastery. It's a daunting sight. There are also forbidden lands that have existed since ancient times. Even the almighty figures of the Yang Realm don't dare to attack them. There are endless mysterious legends that make people yearn for them. Even I want to know what kind of things or people are lying dormant there. "
Chu Feng didn't say anything and listened quietly.
The petrified fox rambled on and said many things. Some of them were so shocking that even Chu Feng was shocked.
For example, he said that there was a sect that had been passed down for eight million years. It didn't lack deities and even had a few divine kings overseeing it. There were even characters that were close to the Celestial Venerable Realm. But because they wanted to go to some inauspicious land to dig up treasures, the entire orthodoxy was completely annihilated in a single night. The deities of that clan all died tragically. Only a divine king went mad and survived. He shouted when he saw anyone that their ancestor who had died was in those ruins. It was very strange.
How could a divine king be afraid of ordinary things and living beings? He was actually scared half to death and went mad in the end. Just thinking about these things was terrifying.
"That master of mine is so ruthless. He has the most heartless heart of the almighty figures of the Yang Realm …" When it reached the end, the lame petrified fox actually shed tears.
It was very depressed. It didn't know how many years it had been in this world. It had lived longer than many deities because there was something on its body that allowed it to linger on at death's door temporarily.
After that, it lost control of its emotions when it talked about the sad part. It was stifled for a long time and told a few things to Chu Feng.
"Youngster, I advise you to leave earlier. If you have the chance, go to the Yang Realm. Perhaps the root of your illness can be cured there," the lame fox advised.
Chu Feng was stunned and said, "What kind of illness do I have?"
"This is a land of depravity. The whole world is sick, let alone you. There isn't a single person who isn't sick. How long do you think the deities can live? How is it possible for them to reach the end of their lives at six to seven hundred years old? "
"I'm sick," Chu Feng said to himself.
"You've been in this world for a hundred years, so your illness isn't light. The most effective way is to barge into some forbidden land to try your luck. If you can bring out a mysterious talisman, then you can reincarnate. This is the safest method, but it's also the most unrealistic. You can't do it. Even almighty figures will be killed when they barge into the forbidden land. Not many people can succeed in that kind of place unless many almighty figures of the Yang Realm join hands to beg for it. "
The lame fox gave him a suggestion.
Chu Feng was speechless. Was this world so terrifying? Would there be big problems in the future after staying here for a hundred years?
"You can't walk this kind of path, so try to go to the Yang Realm. There are special mountains and rivers there. Some places might have rare fruits or special Celestial Venerables that can help you cure it."
"Is it that terrifying?" Chu Feng couldn't help but ask. The Land of the Fallen was really too shocking. He had only lived here for a hundred years, yet there was actually such a problem.
"It's even more terrifying than you can imagine. Do you know that this world has long been reserved by that almighty master of mine? He wanted to refine it into a treasure of time, but he gave up in shock in the end."
"What?!" Chu Feng was gobsmacked.
He had already heard Young Lady Xi say that back then, this place was called the Land of the Fallen by the people of the Yang Realm. Back then, the gods had attacked the Yang Realm and tore a corner of this land.
However, so many gods and even divine kings were wiped out by a disciple led by an almighty figure of the Yang Realm. Not a single one was left.
In the end, that almighty figure of the Yang Realm wanted to refine this world into a treasure of time. This might also be the reason why the flow of time here was so terrifying.
He never thought that today, Chu Feng was fortunate enough to learn that there really was such an almighty figure of the Yang Realm, and his disciple was right here.
"Refining a world into a treasure of time. Just how shocking is this ability?" Chu Feng was shocked as he looked at the lame yellow-furred fox.
He had many things he wanted to ask and many things he wanted to consult on. This was too shocking.
Chu Feng felt that he had encountered an extraordinary creature. This petrified fox was too terrifying. She was that person's disciple, so she should have personally experienced these things.
At the same time, this person should have truly understood what was wrong with this world.
"Senior, you're his disciple?"
"Yes. Back then, I even attacked together with my master and killed the gods and divine kings of this world. What a pity and also very sad. In the end, I fell to this world myself and I'm going to rot with it."
When talking about this, the petrified fox almost shed tears as she thought of some sad things.
"Master, you're so cruel!" the petrified fox murmured.
