Early in the morning, the rosy glow of the morning sun shone upon the room, warming his body. Chu Feng opened his eyes. He had slept soundly.
The blood and negative emotions from last night had long been cast aside. He was an optimistic person who knew how to relieve stress from time to time. A new day had begun, and he was full of energy.
Chu Feng did not practice any special breathing technique. After getting up, he went straight to his parents' room and knocked on their door. He was looking forward to seeing how the two of them were doing after one night.
Obviously, after eating the purple pine nuts, their bodies were indeed transforming. They slept longer than usual. Otherwise, they would have been up by now.
"Ah!"
Chu Feng was shocked when he heard the scream. He hurriedly knocked on the door and shouted, "Mom, don't take things too hard. So what if you have horns? At worst, you can go to the beauty salon and cut them off."
He was really worried that Wang Jing would do something stupid.
"This is …"
Soon, he heard Chu Zhiyuan's voice. It seemed that he was also shocked and was tongue-tied. He only managed to spit out two words and then there was no sound.
"Dad, if you grow horns, you don't have to cut them off. How cool is that? Open the door!" Chu Feng hurriedly shouted from outside the door.
"Brat, how can you talk like that?" Wang Jing opened the door. Her voice was no longer fearful. Instead, there was a slight smile on her face.
"Ah?" After the door was opened, Chu Feng also let out a cry. He was quite surprised.
Because, not only did Wang Jing not grow horns, but her complexion was also very good. She looked much younger all of a sudden. The wrinkles at the corner of her eyes had disappeared.
"Who is this? When did I get a sister?" Chu Feng shouted exaggeratedly.
When Wang Jing heard this, she was even happier. However, she said, "You're so rude. How can you say that?"
It was obvious that even her eyes were smiling. She was very happy. Her previous worries had disappeared without a trace. She was very satisfied with this change.
"Mom, you've become younger. Try to feel if there are any other changes," Chu Feng urged.
He was also very happy. His mother was almost 50 years old. Time waited for no man. She was no longer young. There were already wrinkles at the corner of her eyes.
Now that the wrinkles had disappeared, his complexion was especially good. He was suddenly full of vigor, as though he was ten years younger.
Wang Jing now looked like she was thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old, which made her especially happy and excited.
There wasn't a woman who didn't love beauty, especially those who were no longer young and had lost their youth. Regaining what was lost was even more precious.
"Is this … real?" It had been a long time, but Wang Jing was still in a daze in front of the mirror. She couldn't believe it.
As for Chu Zhiyuan, he was already in the living room with Chu Feng. Both father and son were in a good mood and were chatting with each other.
Chu Zhiyuan's transformation was also very obvious. The white hair on his temples had disappeared. His hair was now black and full of vigor.
He looked like he was in his forties. His face was ruddy, and the dark bags under his eyes were gone.
"I'm full of energy right now. I feel like I have an inexhaustible amount of energy in my body. I feel even better than when I was young!" Chu Zhiyuan was talking about his feelings.
"Dad, take a closer look and see if you've grown anything," Chu Feng reminded him with a smile.
"You little brat, do you really want your parents to grow scales and horns?" Chu Zhiyuan stared at him and laughed as he said this.
"That's great! You didn't turn into a weird person. In fact, you look much younger!" Wang Jing finally calmed down. Her face was full of smiles as she walked over.
"What do you two want to eat? I'll go to the morning market to buy some ingredients," Wang Jing said. She wanted to cook a feast to celebrate.
"There's no need to be so particular about breakfast. Let's braise all the meat that Feng brought back. If we can also buy a duck, it would be nice too. Also, see if there's any mutton. Oh, and don't forget the eggs and milk," Chu Zhiyuan said.
Wang Jing immediately stared at him and said, "This is what you meant by 'no particular about breakfast'. How much more do you want to eat?"
"I don't know why, but I'm very hungry." Chu Zhiyuan's face was slightly red.
At this time, Wang Jing also felt very hungry. The hunger was very strong, and she really wanted to eat.
"That's normal." Chu Feng smiled and told them. After the physical evolution, one's appetite would increase at the beginning.
"I don't feel anything special. I just feel that my essence, Qi, and spirit are full. My strength has increased a lot."
During breakfast, Chu Zhiyuan talked about his feelings in detail.
Wang Jing nodded. She was sure that she also felt the same. She did not get any mysterious ability.
Chu Feng frowned. This did not seem right. Wouldn't people get some supernatural abilities after eating the strange fruit? His parents did not even have it.
He tested his father's strength. It was very strong, even stronger than a few strong guys added together. But it was not a mysterious ability.
Wang Jing did not care about it. She was already very satisfied. To her, becoming younger was the best gift from God.
Chu Feng turned on his communicator. After a short moment of hesitation, he sent some text messages to Linnoy. He asked her if eating the strange fruit would cause a mutation.
Celestial Biology had a deep understanding of this field. Before the world changed, it had already known many secrets.
Soon, Linnoy replied. She told him that it was not like that. Some people lacked the mysterious factor in their body, so eating the strange fruit would not cause any mutation.
Chu Feng was in a daze.
Because of his relationship with Linnoy, someone from Celestial Biology had used his hair to examine it. They had already concluded that he could not mutate.
However, he did not know it himself.
"Why is it like this?" Chu Feng sent another message.
Linnoy told him that it was very complicated. But it was not a bad thing. It would take time to find out.
From the beginning to the end, Chu Feng did not mention whether he would mutate or not. Linnoy did not ask either.
"Feng, don't frown. Just let nature take its course. Those supernatural abilities are useless to us even if they are given to us," Chu Zhiyuan said.
"Yeah, do you still expect me and your dad to fight and kill? Forget it. We are already old, how can we endure those kinds of scares? "Wang Jing also said.
"Your mom and I both want to live a peaceful life. Think about it, at our age, do you think we still need to go fight monsters in the wilderness?" Chu Zhiyuan comforted.
Chu Feng nodded. That was indeed the case. Even if his parents obtained the mysterious ability, he would not let them do that.
He only wanted his parents to have some ability to protect themselves.
But now it seemed that the situation was very complicated. Different people had different mysterious factors in their bodies. This kind of thing was still hard to understand.
Soon, Chu Feng felt relieved. He said, "With me here, of course I don't need you to go through danger."
He felt that as long as he was strong enough, he would be able to intimidate others. They would not dare to go against his parents. Moreover, he wanted to become even stronger!
Chu Feng pondered. If necessary, he could show some of his sharpness, or even his "fangs", to some people.
Suddenly, he remembered that he still had the breathing technique!
"Dad, mom, there is another way. I don't know if you want to try it."
It was not possible before because the two of them had never come into contact with the mysterious pollen. But now that they had eaten the fruit, they should be able to try it.
"Yellow Cattle, how did you pass on the breathing technique to me? It's that secret technique. Hurry up and tell me." Chu Feng contacted Yellow Cattle, wanting it to tell him.
The breathing technique was divided into "form" and "spirit". The "form" could be imitated and learned. Chu Feng had learned it very quickly back then.
But in order to truly grasp it, he needed to obtain the "spirit". Back then, Yellow Cattle had used a strange power to resonate with Chu Feng's soul. Only then did he truly obtain it.
That kind of method was akin to "empowerment".
As for the Thunderous Breathing Technique, both Chu Feng and Yellow Cattle had imitated it, but the results were not ideal. There was only one reason — there was no way to obtain the "spirit". No one could help "empowerment".
In the distance, Yellow Cattle was enraged. It immediately replied to Chu Feng, telling him not to even think about it. He had already made an exception by teaching it to him. He absolutely could not teach it to anyone else!
"Can you not be so serious?" Chu Feng shamelessly begged.
"Moo!"
Yellow Cattle frantically poked at the communicator, telling Chu Feng that this was not a joke and that it would never teach it to anyone else. If he mastered this breathing technique, he and Chu Feng might meet with a great calamity in the future.
Chu Feng saw that it was anxious and didn't ask for more. He hurriedly inquired about the specifics.
Yellow Cattle told him that this breathing technique had a great origin and was known as a top-notch technique. It was comparable to the complete Thunderous Breathing Technique and was a supreme secret technique.
It warned him that if he were lucky enough to obtain it, it would be best to keep a low profile and not leak it. Otherwise, he would meet with a great calamity one day!
Unless he became a sage one day, only then would he be able to offset that terrifying pressure. This was Yellow Cattle's warning. It was incomparably serious.
Chu Feng was shocked out of his wits. The special breathing technique he had mastered seemed to have an excessively great origin. It gave off a feeling that it could oppress the heavens!
Yellow Cattle added. It could be considered to have obtained it fairly openly, but it was different for Chu Feng.
Chu Feng felt a headache coming on and didn't say anything for a long time. This matter was of great importance.
However, he wasn't too worried. Yellow Cattle had once said that the world would become extremely astonishing after the upheaval. One year's harvest here was equivalent to ten or even a hundred years' harvest in other places.
"I'll go all out to become a sage ancestor!"
This was Yellow Cattle's goal. Now that it had been borrowed by Chu Feng, he had to achieve it.
Afterwards, he asked if it was possible to transmit a form without a spirit.
Yellow Cattle indicated that there was no problem. Just like the Thunderous Breathing Technique, there were also "forms" circulating in the outside world. It wasn't considered a top secret.
Chu Feng began to teach his parents a special breathing technique while the sun was not too strong. This breathing technique was very suitable for early morning.
"Cough …"
Sure enough, the two of them had the same problem as Chu Feng when practicing this breathing technique. They almost choked on their own breath.
Although it was only a "form" and could only be considered an incomplete breathing technique, it would still take a lot of effort to master it.
Chu Feng didn't plan to teach them the Thunderous Breathing Technique for the time being because it was too tyrannical and could easily injure one's body. It was like a thunderbolt striking one's flesh and bones.
The two of them gradually grasped the technique. Chu Zhiyuan heaved a sigh of relief and felt that it was inconceivable.
"Little Feng, don't worry about us. This breathing technique is not bad for our health. We don't want to become experts at all. In fact, we are more concerned about you. What have you experienced during this period of time? "
After calming down, Chu Zhiyuan finally began to inquire.
Chu Feng thought for a while and decided to tell them. Of course, some of the more dangerous things were covered in a few sentences. He didn't want them to worry.
The couple was shocked. After listening to Chu Feng's recount of his recent experiences, they didn't speak for a long time. This was simply too inconceivable.
"Little Feng, are you hurt anywhere?" Wang Jing asked with a lingering fear.
"I'm fine. I can be considered a top-notch expert now." Chu Feng said with a smile. He wanted to reassure them.
"The Mu Family and that girl named Xu are both troublesome." Chu Zhiyuan said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Wang Jing also revealed a worried expression. She had also thought of many things in a short period of time. She said, "This time, Little Feng has uprooted all thirteen mutants. That girl will definitely wake up in an instant. She will know that something is wrong."
Chu Feng nodded. The disappearance of thirteen mutants would definitely shock that girl. At the same time, she would also realize that there was something wrong with him.
However, he had no other choice but to do this. How could he let them go?
"Do you already have a plan?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.
"Yes!" Chu Feng nodded. Since he was going to be exposed, he had to plan ahead.
"Let me think about it." Chu Zhiyuan was deep in thought. This was related to his son's safety. He had to help make a plan to ensure the safety of his family.
"You are very strong now. They might not be able to do anything to you in a short period of time. However, people's hearts are unpredictable. They have too many tricks up their sleeves. It is impossible to guard against them. Moreover, they will probably use me and your mother to deal with you." Chu Zhiyuan said.
"Actually, I'm not afraid of myself. I'm just worried about you." This was Chu Feng's Achilles heel.
"You are very strong, but you are alone. It is time for you to make a decision." Chu Zhiyuan said.
Chu Feng nodded. This was his plan.
"Bodhi Genetics is strong enough to fight against Celestial Biology. There are also the Pre-Qin Research Institute, the Extraterrestrial Civilization Research Institute, the Tonggu Alliance … all of these forces are very strong." Chu Zhiyuan said.
Recently, some major corporations and forces had gradually surfaced. They fought a bloody battle on Mount Song for the Vajra Bodhi Tree. Although they failed, it was still shocking.
"Actually, there is one more powerful force that is worth joining." Chu Zhiyuan suddenly laughed.
"Which one?" Wang Jing asked.
"Boss, of course it is the government," Chu Feng said, but he was also frowning. "I'm afraid that I won't be able to stand being controlled by someone else."
"Not necessarily. Nowadays, the government is recruiting mutants. If you are strong enough, you will have full freedom. They won't even put any restrictions on you. As long as you are willing to help out at the critical moment," Chu Zhiyuan said.
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and ask your old classmate." Wang Jing urged.
His father had an old classmate in the army. Chu Feng had met him once, but he didn't know much about him. He only knew that his father had a good relationship with him.
Chu Feng revealed a strange expression. Could it be that the old classmate had a high military rank?
"It's not what you think. He is only in the logistics department." Chu Zhiyuan laughed. He knew that Chu Feng was overthinking.
"But he knows a lot about the military. I will ask him." Chu Zhiyuan turned around and went to contact his old classmate.
After a long time, he returned to the living room and told Chu Feng some important information.
"I know that the White Tiger is one of their people. He is very free and does not have any restrictions. He only needs to help out at the critical moment."
This meant that as long as one had the strength of King Kong, the Fire Spirit, and the White Tiger, he would be able to do whatever he wanted.
"No problem!" Chu Feng nodded. He was not afraid of the position of strength.
"If you really want to join, I heard that there are many benefits. For example, the ancient martial arts manuals, the latest news, family protection, and so on." Chu Zhiyuan said.
Chu Feng was immediately tempted. Not only could he protect his family, but he could also read the ancient martial arts manuals? The conditions were too good!
In this land, who had more ancient martial arts manuals than the government? Of course not!
"It's not for free. It depends on your contribution. The more you contribute, the more you will get. If you don't contribute anything, then you will get nothing. Even the level of protection given to family members is based on their contributions, "Chu Zhiyuan said.
These words would not be spread outside. It could only be said within the government.
"Is it dangerous?" Wang Jing asked. This was what she was most concerned about. She was afraid that something bad might happen to Chu Feng.
"That depends on your choice. Some contributions are not that easy to make. For example, the big move right now." Chu Zhiyuan said solemnly.
"What big move?" Chu Feng asked.
"Do you know why the Ash Wolf King on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau went crazy? The beast tide in Shu Land and the beasts attacking Shuntian were all to distract the government."
"Huh?" Wang Jing was puzzled.
"Now that everyone is fighting for the famous mountains and rivers, the government will definitely take action. At the very least, they need to control two or more famous mountains. The battle is extremely fierce. If they can't control two or three of the mountains, they will use their ultimate weapon to destroy them. "Chu Zhiyuan said.
So fierce? Chu Feng was surprised.
"One of them must be obtained no matter the cost. We must have it in our hands no matter what!" Chu Zhiyuan said.
"Where is it?" Chu Feng asked.
"The Pilgrimage Ground that every dynasty has to go to!"
