Chapter 475: Ascend to Look Down at the World

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

The giant sacrificial altar was like a majestic mountain stretching across the region!

Chu Feng had just approached the altar when he was overwhelmed by the sensation of having to shoulder the blue sky—all the bones in his body began to creak and groan.

At this time, he was like a little bug facing off against the vast starry skies. That which he was facing was boundlessly vast and ancient.

Standing there, his body had been suppressed until he was on the verge of splitting into several pieces. The sensation of being suppressed was almost stifling and seemed as though it would rip him apart.

The altar was simple and unadorned. It had stood there for many long years and the stone steps were the only way up to the top.

Chu Feng strode forth with difficulty. Highly concentrated spiritual energy seeped out from his forehead to deduce the domains therein. He then advanced without hesitation and moved upwards.

Even though it was fairly dangerous, he had no other choice. The only way he had was to forward.

That was because he would likely never get this chance again if he missed it since both the Penglai and the outer realm geniuses already knew of his intentions.

"Where do you think you're going?!"

The Great Qi Imperial Prince was the first to attack. That was because he had been guarding this dimensional space all this time but had failed to obstruct Chu Feng just now. The latter had escaped and charged into this place.

He arrived at almost the same time as Chu Feng, his body enshrouded in draconic qi. His grand fist intent was accompanied by explosive dragon roars as he smashed towards Chu Feng's back.

This imperial prince was very frightening and his true abilities were quite worthy of reverence. He was a true expert who was superior to ordinary saint children.

The fist intent rumbled and shook the entire area.

Apparently, this caused an extremely shocking outcome. The simple sacrificial altar trembled with a radiant glow as domain runes surged up to form a terrifying pressure.

The sacrificial altar had awoken in response to outside interference and was emitting a terrifying aura!

Chu Feng changed his position to evade the grand fist intent and, at the same time, took rapid action.

Magnetic stones began to float up as the domains moved to shield him from the altars pressure. He didn't utilize the Seal of Domain Suppression immediately and was saving it for dangerous situations.

Chu Feng was worried that this black treasured seal wouldn't last long. After all, it was already filled with cracks and badly damaged.

Bang!

Beams of light shot up from the altar. This reaction was brought about by Qi Yu's fist attack.

Swoosh!

Chu Feng was extremely agile—he rose like a rabbit and swooped down like a falcon, charging tens of meters away and up numerous limestone steps.

Behind him, Qi Yu had stopped with a gloomy expression. He really didn't dare chase after Chu Feng rashly because the altar was already glowing and the backlash had sent him staggering backwards.

"Everyone, attack together and cause interference. Don't give him any opportunity!" The Penglai young miss Chen Rong shouted.

The others weren't slow either and arrived at just about the same time. Within a split second, the limestone staircase was drowned in bird cries, beast roars and raging beams of resplendent energy.

Boom!

A huge explosion rang out and all of them were caused to stagger back. All of them suffered counterattacks after their energy struck the altar and some of them were almost wounded.

The altar erupted with light. Although the radiance wasn't strong, the aura it had formed was too terrifying. It was as if a vicious beast had awakened and poised to devour all life.

One couldn't profane this ancient sacrificial altar so casually.

All of them were shaken at heart!

However, they also revealed a delighted expression because Chu Feng's condition on the altar wasn't any better and perhaps even worse than them. He had been obstructed and injured by the surging runes.

There was a strand of blood trickling out from his nose and mouth.

Apparently, the one who had it worst after the altar awoke was Chu Feng.

"Haha… he's truly walking the path to his own demise. Climbing the altar like this is no different than a living target. Everyone, let's continue the attacks and kill him!" Zhu Wuque laughed loudly.

These divine sons and saintesses had eyes as bright as golden lamps. Their gazes were sharp, penetrative and knew exactly how they should deal with Chu Feng.

Boom!

Zhu Wuque revealed his true body. The scarlet-red bird spat out flames from its mouth which engulfed the ancient mountain-sized altar.

Yue Kun also revealed his true form. His body, in the shape of a faint golden diamond ape, was as big as a small hill. He lifted his spike mace and swung forward with great ferocity.

Energy surged wildly like the ocean waters that had breached the dike and flooded the area in front.

Within moments, numerous saint children had taken action. Molten lava began to gush out from the ground as if a group volcanoes had been activated. It was a terrifying scene.

The most important was the altars reaction. After such an attack, it immediately erupted with a blinding light.

Dong Dong Dong Dong!

Four light sounds rang out as four Dragon Locking Pillars appeared around Chu Feng to safeguard his surroundings, forming a narrow but safe space between them.

If not for this, he definitely would've been torn asunder. That was because the altar had become incomparably frightening. A layer of mysterious and complicated runes was flowing about like waves of water.

The entire altar was no longer simple and had become lustrous, containing a shocking killing intent!

This was where the ancients offered sacrifice to the heavens. Ancient emperors had taken part in these rituals and this altar was crafted by powerful individuals. No offense would be tolerated!

Boom!

Zhu Wuque, Yue Kun, and the others all paid the price. Energy runes flowed out immediately from the altar and seemingly branded themselves in the air. They possessed an almost corporeal sense of metallic coldness.

Bang Bang!

Zhu Wuque coughed up a mouthful of blood and flew backwards, its feathers dropping amidst the flames.

Yue Kun let out a roar and was sent flying backwards. The spiked mace in his hand flew out immediately as his finger webs were torn apart.

Although they had already expected a retaliation, the intensity still made them quite terrified.

"Let's withdraw and use secret treasures to attack the altar. We must prevent him from climbing to the top!"

Someone thus advised. They had to stop him from getting his way at all costs.

That was because there were good things on top of the altar. There was a multi-colored jade table so big that it seemed to have been prepared for a giant. The items on top were all rare sacrificial objects surging with auspicious qi.

Afterwards, numerous secret treasures erupted with light as they were shot out directly towards the altar.

On the stop steps, Chu Feng's expression changed. This was the scenario he was the most worried about. And it was also why he had been hesitating if he should climb the altar.

The domains would become extremely dangerous if other people were to interfere while he was ascending the altar.

Dong!

Domain runes exploded like a layer of undulating waves and spread across the altar. The area became extremely dangerous.

The many secret treasures were rapidly withdrawn, but two of them suffered a counter-attack and exploded into fragments after being drowned in domain runes.

Yuwen Feng, Zhu Wuque, Chen Rong and Lie Shan were visibly moved—this place was too terrifying. In order to stop Chu Feng, they would have to pay a considerable price.

Those were secret treasures! Who could endure such a torment?

Most of their secret treasures had already been destroyed during their exit from the star passages and all of them possessed only a few.

Energy runes fluctuated upon the altar as the four Dragon Locking Pillars shook wildly and seemed close to falling down. Some cracks had begun to appear on them and it seemed as though they were about to break down.

"Haha!" Chen Rong laughed loudly. She ordered some people to hurl a damaged bronze pagoda towards the altar.

This was a treasured pagoda of the visualization realm. It had been partially burnt by the essence flames of extreme yang from Chu Feng's diamond chakram. Presently, it was being discarded and used to launch an attack.

Crack!

The pagoda disintegrated and exploded.

However, even a damaged visualization realm treasure would still induce a big backlash when it crashed into the altar.

As expected, the altar surged with blinding radiance. Chu Feng was now in a dangerous situation—the four Dragon Locking Pillars began to crack and then metallic fragments flew out from it.

Chen Rong revealed a delighted expression. Zhu Wuque, Zhi Luan, Zhan He, Bai Ling and the others all revealed cold smiles as they watched Chu Feng struggle at death's door.

However, things didn't go as they had expected. The Dragon Locking Pillars had only shed a layer of copper and revealed an even more lustrous brass pillar within.

Chu Feng was still quite calm. He had long since known that the Dragon Locking Pillars were an exceptional treasure and that it wouldn't break that easily. It had also unlocked two restrictions within the Revered Eight Trigrams Furnace on Mount Lu.

This time, it was even more intense. It had actually unlocked its third restriction!

As expected, the area was temporarily stabilized.

Chu Feng breathed a long sigh of relief and put away the Seal of Domain Suppression.

Clang clang clang clang!

Whenever Chu Feng took a step forward, the four Dragon Locking Pillars would follow along. They would follow him and plant themselves on the stairs, ensuring his safety.

Down below, the eyes of the group of people constricted and their unsightly faces revealed frosty intent.

"Try again!"

Someone said in a low voice. How could they ever let Chu Feng go up there? The things atop the altar were too attractive. There were peaches of immortality and ginseng fruits, all emitting alluring radiance. They were still fresh to this day and could easily ensure one's rapid evolution once eaten.

Within moments, ten secret treasures flew out amidst a blinding light. They were like ten suns hurtling towards the altar.

Boom!

As if immortal lightning had descended from the outer realm, the deafening sound almost tore apart everyone's eardrums. The altar surged with terrifying light and dense runes. It was becoming more and more terrifying.

Before the altar, dozens of the followers of the eight divine sons and saintesses exploded and turned into bloody mist.

The altar's backlash was too intense and far exceeded everyone's expectations. Chen Rong, Zhan He, Bai Ling, Zhu Wuque and the others successfully escaped. However, their followers were one step too late and were annihilated on the spot.

Atop the altar, Chu Feng's body shook and he spat out a large mouthful of blood.

He turned back and stared coldly at the crowd.

"Keep going if you still have secret treasures!" He refused to believe that they would be able to fire out these things continuously.

The current altar had been activated with terrifying domain runes. This made it difficult for Chu Feng to take each step forward.

A scarlet red bird soared into the sky and wanted to launch a sneak attack against Chu Feng. In the end, it had just jumped up into the air when it was torn into several pieces with feathers and blood flying everywhere.

"Fool! This is where the ancients offered sacrifice to the heavens. How can birds be allowed to pass through the sky? Flight is not allowed here! Everyone, don't act rashly!"

The divine sons and saintesses warned their followers.

At this time, Chu Feng, with his Fiery Eyes, had moved away along with the four Dragon Locking Pillars. It was fortunate that the had this eye ability. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to climb up the stairs even with his domain methods and the Dragon Locking Pillars.

The Fiery Eyes could see through reality and emptiness. He could understand and slowly avoid the most dangerous areas on the stairs as he advanced.

But the further up he went, the heavier his heart became. The domains up the limestone steps had become increasingly complex and dense. The four pillars could hardly hold on.

There were numerous times where the pillars almost flew out from the impact.

Chu Feng stepped forward slowly with great difficulty. During this time, there were times where was sent staggering back from the vibrations, blood running out of his nose and mouth.

He sighed lightly and retrieved the Seal of Domain Suppression. At the same time, he put away the Dragon Locking Pillars—he didn't dare take the risk anymore.

That was because the moment the black stone came out the domains around him started losing their effects. It was no use leaving mere brass pillars out.

The black stone seal glowed and engulfed Chu Feng with its light, protecting him within. The black light formed a peaceful isolated zone around him.

But, the area was very small since the black light was being suppressed and couldn't expand outwards. How terrifying was this sacrificial altar?

Of course, from another perspective, the Seal of Domain Suppression was astonishing. IT could actually resist the invasion of the altar's domain runes!

Chu Feng had already reached a very high place. He had already succeeded the greater half of his endeavor and would have reached the top of the majestic altar in a few steps.

Below him, the group of people had cold expressions on their faces. They weren't willing to see such a thing happen.

Chen Rong was gnashing her teeth and staring fixedly at the black stone seal in Chu Feng's hands. That item was from Penglai and it was also why they had guessed that Chu Feng would come here to obtain fortunes.

Penglai had also made such plans before and even attempted going up the altar. Unfortunately, they had failed to climb up even with the Seal of Domain Suppression!

Chu Feng held the black stone seal in his hand and his Fiery Eyes had been activated. He was greatly alarmed at the moment—if not for his great attainments in the field of domains and the fact that his eyes could see through all disguises, he would surely die even with the Seal of Domain Suppression!

"You want to take away those rare sacrificial items? How can you do as you please?!" Chen Rong was an exceptional beauty, but now her face was full of coldness and malice.

She brought out a simple and unadorned little stone bridge the size of a palm and said, "Everyone, I'll gift you all a fortune. Let's go fight for the sacrificial offerings on the altar and kill Chu Feng at the same time!"

That was a world-crossing bridge!

It could cross over domains and leap past killer mechanisms. It could be considered a rare treasure.

Of course, such an item was exceptionally rare and most were imitations. When Chu Feng first came here, the problem lady's grandfather, the Daoist with the barking butt, had also taken out a similar item. In the end, he had failed to ascend the altar.

"An imitation?" Li Feng revealed an odd expression.

Chen Rong smiled indifferently. "Correct, it is indeed an imitation. But it should be able to reach where Chu Feng is. We will go up there, catch him off-guard and either kill or seize him. Then we'll take his Seal of Domain Suppression and ascend the altar."

She had been waiting for this opportunity all along. She watched Chu Feng climb up to a certain position before bringing out the World Crossing Bridge.

That was because Chu Feng would exceed the scope of this bridge if he kept on climbing.

"Heh, very well!"

"We can do that. Let's go and kill him!"

"Yuwen Feng, Zhu Wuque, the Great Qi prince Qi Yu expressed their consent. They would climb up the altar to kill Chu Feng!

Swoosh!

The next moment, the world crossing bridge erupted with light and directly shot upward. It formed a safe passage from energy, through which Zhu Wuque's group ordered their followers to charge up. They would follow from the back after making sure there weren't any problems.

"young Miss, how can we let them go up? The fortunes on the altar will land in their hands!" An elder from Penglai beat his chest and stamped his feet.

"What else can we do? Otherwise, the items will land in Chu Feng's hands!" Chen Rong said coldly.

"He might not necessarily succeed. We can observe a while longer!" An elder was feeling grief and lament. Penglai had been eyeing these things for a long time.

"Humph, it's not a big deal. It's fine as long as the fortunes don't fall into Chu Feng's hands." Chen Rong replied in a cold voice. "I'd rather offer it to friends than give it to a slave!"

At this time, she no longer suppressed or disguised her voice. That was because Zhu Wuque's group had already charged up and had arrived near Chu Feng.

At this moment, Chu Feng was shocked. He saw a beam of light connect to his area and immediately moved to defend. A big bell imprinted with complex energy runes emerged around his body.

Additionally, he turned around after hearing Chen Rong's words and said in a cold voice, "You b*tch!"

He was truly furious. What mindset was this? He really wanted to capture her and kill her slowly.

Boom!

At the critical moment, Chu Feng shot out six profound magnetic stones. This was his trump card, something he had taken from Li Lin during the struggle for the monastic robe.

Of course, he had shot them out directly to cut off that energy tunnel. He didn't dare approach and activate them because he was afraid he would be suppressed.

Boom!

Down below, energy surged wildly as the path was obstructed.

Afterwards, Chu Feng didn't turn back. He held onto the Seal of Domain Suppression and kept on climbing as quickly as possible. His fiery eyes could see through everything and thus he was able to choose the safest path to charge up.

In the end, he finally began to approach the top. He was only one step away.

Bang!

Chu Feng had succeeded. At that moment, he looked down as though he were watching the world from the sky.

"Success! I shall baptize my body with divine medicine, sever all the remaining shackles in one go and condense my dao. Everyone down there should wash their necks and wait for me!" Chu Feng growled.

He walked forward in large strides and arrived before the multicolored table. The place was suffused with auspicious qi. It was simply too divine! At the same time, there was also a terrifying suppressive might.

Chu Feng's target was clear and had his eyes fixed on the bright red peaches of immortality. He had come for this divine medicine!
