Chapter 625: Mysterious Existence
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Are these poses not awkward without the accompanying special effects?" Chen Feng asked with a faint smile. When he was shrouded by the pink aura as he activated his ability, he would appear so very mystical and incomparably tyrannical, but now, with his energy being destroyed, he appeared rather awkward.
Senior Zhang's eyes gleamed coldly. "Hmph! Trash," he muttered to himself, though it wasn't clear whether he was talking about Chen Feng or himself.
Bang!
Suddenly, he ignited himself with a dense pink flame.
"This…" Qin Hai's expression changed greatly. "This is bad. He is burning his life force."
"Mhm?" Chen Feng's expression became solemn. Burning his life force? This fellow…
"Senior, it's me. Do you not recognize me anymore?" Qin Hai tried awakening his senior. And yet…
Senior Zhang merely shouted coldly with hatred in his eyes. "Scram!"
"He is not your senior." Chen Feng shook his head. "To be precise, his state of mind is currently being controlled by a certain power, similar to the president. It is pointless to try communicating with them when they are like this."
He had long seen through this. As such, they had to avoid touching anything pink here. Here, pink signified danger.
Qin Hai had an unsightly expression. "What do we do, then?" Senior Zhang had cared for him greatly in the past. He did not wish to see Senior Zhang die this way, dying with an unclear mind by burning his own life force away.
Chen Feng took a deep breath. "Let me give it a try."
Perhaps…
Bang!
A berserk power erupted from Senior Zhang's body. The pink flame increased in intensity. Senior Zhang's life force was being burned away.
"Hehe." He gave off a bizarre laugh as his gaze was fixed on Chen Feng. The berserk pink energy converged without stop, forming a powerful and dreadful pink beam.
"I shall…"
Bang!
He pointed midair. Suddenly, the pink surged toward Chen Feng. Yet before he could even finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Chen Feng, who completed the sentence for him."
"End you!" Chen Feng shouted heroically.
Swish!
A silhouette flashed out of his body. Spirit appeared and, with a shiny red sword, slashed downward with a powerful force. Instantly, the boundless pink was torn apart.
Swoosh!
All the pink vanished.
"You…" Senior Zhang trembled as his eyes rolled up and his body collapsed weekly to the ground.
"Senior." Qin Hai rushed over. "He has lost consciousness from energy exhaustion."
Qin Hai shook his head. This senior's situation resembled the few people they had encountered earlier. All of the energy within them, including the pink energy, had been fully exhausted, resulting in them losing consciousness.
"Mhm." Chen Feng was somewhat absent minded. The "end you" he had shouted earlier had merely been something he had shouted randomly. After all, in fights, shouting these things could only serve to disturb the opponents as far as he was concerned. After all, shouting that was much better than shouting "those who dress up in my female outfits shall be eliminated".[1] 1
Naturally, all this was not important. What Chen Feng cared about was the final expression on Senior Zhang's face before he had lost his consciousness. This was not as obvious as the expression of that devil expert Chen Feng had defeated previously. At that time, numerous expressions such as shock, disbelief, and adoration had appeared. Chen Feng was still confused about all those. Yet this time, from this Senior Zhang's expression, dread had been seen. That's right, dread!
The dread was not something Senior Zhang had felt. Rather, it was the pink energy, not a feeling let off by any specific consciousness. Instead, it was the pure fear exhibited by the pink energy toward Chen Feng's energy. This was rather astonishing.
"Misconception?"
Chen Feng rubbed his head. He did not believe that the present him would still see things wrongly. As such, this pink energy was truly capable of emotions? This Senior Zhang's energy was spatial energy, and it was this energy that the pink energy had combined with. Since Chen Feng's energy had countered them, it was natural for them to feel fear. But then, this was something inconceivable.
"If that's true…"
Chen Feng was able to form an initial conjecture as to what had happened here. An unforeseen event had happened here, not initiated by any person but rather by some power instead? Or perhaps a certain formidable power had formed its own consciousness? This was what Chen Feng guessed.
After discussing with Qin Hai, Qin Hai agreed with this conjecture as well. He put Senior Zhang down and walked forth to open the door. Yet regretfully, the inside was empty apart from boundless pink.
"Seems like the transportation system has been destroyed as well." Qin Hai appeared regretful.
Chen Feng rolled his eyes. "Even if it hadn't been destroyed, I wouldn't dare to use it anyway."
Qin Hai gave it some thought and agreed. Even if the transportation system was fine, would they dare use it?
"Let's continue walking, then."
Qin Hai laughed bitterly and they both continued walking forth. After the appearance of this Senior Zhang, they were even more careful now, especially when passing through the residences of Qin Hai's other apprentice brothers.
Surprisingly, no new enemies appeared. Those apprentice brothers of Qin Hai had seemingly vanished—not a single one of them appeared. Chen Feng pondered. The world of pink was terrifyingly quiet. Had that thing been scared off?
The memory of the dread exhibited by the pink energy was still fresh in his mind. And with the subsequent absence of Qin Hai's other apprentice brothers, his conjecture was seemingly proven.
"Although I don't know what that thing is, it must have been scared off," Chen Feng guessed.
"Or perhaps…" Qin Hai added, "it feels like it isn't a match for you even after combining with my apprentice brothers. As such, it has given up on that to avoid additional losses."
Chen Feng nodded. "That's possible." In a few words, the two of them were able to get the general gist of the situation. As such, that energy was keeping a low profile after seemingly noticing how difficult Chen Feng was to deal with. It decided to stop wasting any energy and to save it until it counted. It was presently preparing something even more terrifying…
"Look."
Qin Hai pointed at a room nearby. There, another apprentice brother of Qin Hai's could be seen. He was similarly shrouded in pink. However, the present him was already fully exhausted of energy and was unconscious.
"He lost his strength."
Chen Feng was able to see it clearly with a single glance. It seemed like Qin Hai's guess was correct. The pink energy was indeed holding back and saving up its power for something else.
"Ignore him."
They only gave the apprentice brother a glance and did not approach him. After all, things might be even safer for this apprentice brother now that the pink energy within him was fully exhausted. However…
"We need to be extra careful," Chen Feng reminded Qin Hai.
"Understood." Qin Hai was similarly prudent as well. The presence of intelligence had made this pink energy even scarier. For it to deliberately give up on several fellows who it felt to not be Chen Feng's match, it definitely had to be preparing something even more terrifying.
One, two, three…
They looked at the buildings all around them, their scalps feeling numb.
"What exactly is this pink energy trying to do?"
They were getting nearer to the center. Just as they concluded that this pink energy was probably planning to have a single decisive battle with them at the center, suddenly, the entire world started flickering, darkening before brightening up without stop. The pink radiance flickered, akin to a breathing lamp. Far away, a pink figure appeared. On the head of that figure was a white hat that appeared so very dazzling.
"White hat…" Qin Hai's pupils shrunk. "Even Senior Mu has fallen!"

Chapter 626: Magnetic Melody
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Senior Mu. This a person had a unique identity and ability. If there were anyone in the Land of Legacy that was immune to the pink energy, it would most certainly be him. Qin Hai had never expected that even Senior Mu would fall to it.
"Be careful," Qin Hai reminded Chen Feng.
"I know." Chen Feng gazed ahead. He was aware of how terrifying this senior's ability was—or rather, how peculiar it was.
Hum—
A faint pink aura flashed past. The hat on Senior Mu's head slowly changed color, becoming pink. Next, an aura that caused one's will to shake gushed out, silently entering their brains.
"Submit... my child…"
The hoarse voice resounded by their ears and echoed within their mind. A momentary blankness appeared in the eyes of Chen Feng and Qin Hai. As the voice echoed without stop, they started feeling sleepy.
This won't do!
Chen Feng gritted his teeth and tried holding on, to the point that his gums started bleeding. He could not allow himself to fall asleep. The moment he fell asleep… he would become a puppet of this fellow.
I must stay awake! Chen Feng roared inwardly. Yet the sleepy feeling became stronger and stronger, seemingly unstoppable even with his S-class strength.
Beng! Beng! Beng!
Chen Feng pointed at the empty air three times. He tried to destroy this power in the same fashion he had destroyed the spatial ability earlier. Alas, this force was coming to him from all directions like a wave. Chen Feng was able to only destroy the small portion of it that was in front of him. He was incapable of blocking the entirety of this force.
"Damn it."
Chen Feng had an ominous feeling. This Master Mu had already been a peak beyond A class in the past. Now that he had fused with the pink energy, he was already at the doorstep of the awakened realm. Chen Feng had no way of stopping his attack. Moreover, the awakened ability he knew of was ineffective against these soft attacks.
This is getting troublesome…
Chen Feng felt his eyelids getting heavier.
His gaze blurry, he looked at Qin Hai. Qin Hai had a fierce expression on his face, evidently struggling against the brainwashing as well. They would need something, something capable of waking them up from this state of mind.
I need some provocation!
Chen Feng pondered with the final speck of consciousness he had. The present him required something exciting, something thrilling, to wake him up from this.
Fast! Fast! Fast!
His drowsiness was getting heavier, to the point that it was almost unbearable. He needed an intense provocation to wake himself up.
Thrill…
Excitement…
Wang Yao?
The first person he thought of was Wang Yao, yet he found that his drowsiness increased further. This won't do. What about horror movies?
Shua!
Chen Feng got Xiao Ying to replay the horror movies he had watched within his brain. With Xiao Ying's present strength, it was not a problem to replay a horror movie with the exact special effects and sounds. Yet with Chen Feng's present strength, this horror movie wasn't even able to bring any changes to Chen Feng's emotions when watching it.
What stupid movie! Why was there nothing thrilling in it? Chen Feng tried getting Xiao Ying to replay a porno, yet it still failed to work. Chen Feng glanced at Qin Hai. That fellow was no longer able to keep his eyes open. If this continued, Qin Hai would soon fall under Master Mu's control. And next, it would be Chen Feng's turn.
"Damn it!"
Chen Feng wanted to clench his fists tightly, yet he noticed that he couldn't exert any strength, as his fists were no longer taking his commands. At present, the amount of his strength he could control was decreasing without stop.
The drowsiness increased without stop.
Movies?
Comedies?
Music?
Chen Feng got Xiao Ying to replay anything that should be able to bring him some excitement or thrill yet nothing worked. Rather, his drowsiness increased.
Am I out of ways out of this?
Chen Feng's train of thought was on the verge of a complete stop. At this moment, he handed everything in his brain to Xiao Ying and Spirit so they could think of something for him, as he was already incapable of thinking and was only able to watch on helplessly as the sense of drowsiness overcame him. Right at this instant, an immensely loud voice resounded:
"Wake up!"
"All who do not wish to be a slave! Use your flesh and build us a new Great Wall!"[1]
…
Hiss.
Instantly, Chen Feng regained a degree of consciousness. What a familiar melody! Back when he had still been a student, this had been his alarm in the morning! Because of that, he had almost been beaten to death by his roommate! This familiar melody had seemingly returned Chen Feng to his previous life, his life as a student… Mhm… Those cute female classmates…
Suddenly, a wave of drowsiness attacked him.
The newly gained consciousness started fading as his drowsiness intensified.
"…"
Spirit and Xiao Ying exchanged glances, appearing to be at a loss. What should they do now?
"Hold on." Spirit started analyzing everything she had seen. Based on the degree of provocation these things had brought Chen Feng, she selected the one with the most intense provocation.
"Hopefully, I will be correct this time." She took in a deep breath. "Xiao Ying, play it. We don't have much time left. This time, play it directly to the outside world at maximum volume so even Qin Hai can hear it as well."
Swish!
Xiao Ying streaked out hastily.
At this time, both Qin Hai and Chen Feng were on the verge of falling under the enemy's control. Suddenly, a magnetic melody resounded.
"Zhejiang Wenzhou!"
"Zhejiang Wenzhou!"
"The largest tannery, Jiangnan Tannery, has gone bankrupt!"
"The bastard boss Huang He, dining, whining, whoring, and gambling. Incurred a debt of 350 million and fled with his mistress! Out of choices, we used the produced wallets to substitute for our pay. The original prices were 100-odd yuan, 200-odd yuan, 300-odd yuan, all sold at 20 yuan! All 20 yuan! Huang He, you bastard, you are not human! We have worked hard for you for half a year yet have received no salary! Pay us our hard-earned money, pay us our hard-earned money!"[2]
…
Qin Hai was alarmed. This magnetic melody, these wondrous lyrics, was seemingly describing a story where love and hate interwove. The song was so moving one could cry, the story told so very heart-rending…
At this moment, Qin Hai seemingly saw a scene where an earnest youth worked hard for a great tannery. He entered Wenzhou just to approach his beloved woman yet was unfortunate enough to only be able to take her older sister as his wife instead…
Chen Feng was alarmed as well. However, he was way too familiar with this song. So familiar was he that it only provoked him slightly and was insufficient to wake him. As for Qin Hai, under the effect of the pink and white energy, he had seemingly immersed himself fully into the world of the song…
Wanting to regain consciousness with a single song? How was that possible?
The white hat shone radiantly, bringing them into an illusory dream. Chen Feng and Qin Hai were both engrossed in some sort of dream-like state, yet at this moment, the magnetic song continued, yet the lyrics were changed.
"Gene Production Association!
"Gene Production Association!
"Went bankrupt!
"Bastard boss, Chen Feng, incurred a debt of 350 million, eloped with Xu Fei! Out of choices, we have to use Xiao Rou to repay the debt…"
…
??!
"Hiss—"
After taking a deep breath, Chen Feng woke up instantly.
"???"
Qin Hai shivered and woke up as well.
Shua!
The both of them regained consciousness immediately, as if cold water had exploded right inside their brains.
What the f*ck?
This was the first reaction of both of them.
The magnetic song continued, "Chen Feng, the bastard, you are not human. We have worked hard…"
"Spirit!" Chen Feng howled and interrupted her.
"Huh? You're awake?" Spirit was overjoyed.
"I want to know why did I have to elope with Xu Fei? Even if it was so the lyrics could rhyme, you should have made me elope with Xiao Rou instead, right?" Chen Feng couldn't understand the logic of this. Why in the world would he elope with Xu Fei, a male? Qin Hai was similarly dumbstruck. He was aware that this music was the work of Chen Feng. As such, could he conclude that these were Chen Feng's inner thoughts? Holy shit, what in the world was Chen Feng thinking on a daily basis?
"Contrast." Spirit smiled. "Only extreme contrast could wake the both of you up."
"Oh." With this explanation, Chen Feng was satisfied. That's right. If he was going to elope, it should be a woman instead. How could it be possible for his innermost thought to be such gay thoughts?
Seems like I am still straight. Chen Feng was pleased. Hold on…
By the side, Qin Hai recalled something. What the hell, how could forget the fact that the lyrics had used Xiao Rou as a means of repaying the debt, yet now, Chen Feng was even thinking of eloping with her? How could he?
Qin Hai glared at Chen Feng grudgingly. "Chen Feng, don't you think that you need to explain something to me?"
Chen Feng: "…"

Chapter 627: Before the Remnant
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Shua!
Light swirled around. The pink and white radiance bloomed, instantly attracting the attention of both Chen Feng and Qin Hai. Distantly, that pink and white hat gradually appeared, revealing the main body of Senior Mu.
"You were actually able to escape my ability?" Senior Mu was astonished. He seemed to have heard some magnetic melody earlier. That thing… "Curing ills with poison?" Senior Mu understood clearly. "However, if you guys believe that this is sufficient to withstand me, you guys are truly naive. Let me show you guys my supreme special ability…"
Shua!
An intoxicating power appeared. Under normal circumstances, this level of power would be sufficient to cause Chen Feng and Qin Hai or anyone else at their level to fall asleep. But now…
"Special my ass." Qin Hai, who had yet to recover from his anger, erupted, slashing at Senior Mu. By the side, Chen Feng erupted as well. Earlier, he had still been thinking of a way to explain the matter pertaining to Xiao Rou. Now that this Senior Mu had interrupted them, he was overjoyed and directly followed after Qin Hai and erupted with a formidable power.
Drowsiness? It no longer existed.
Senior Mu, who was unleashing his ability, was dumbstruck. How was this possible? The both of them had obviously been affected by his ability earlier, so why were they completely fine now? Moreover, he had obviously activated an even stronger ability this time…
Bang! Bang!
A terrifying power erupted.
Pu!
A cold radiance flashed. Countless bloody scars appeared on Senior Mu's body.
Bang! Bang!
Pushing Senior Mu down to the ground, Qin Hai started beating him up. This Senior Mu was nearly unequaled when it came to mind control. Even Chen Feng had nearly fallen under his control. Correspondingly, Senior Mu's melee combat capability was… nonexistent.
Thump! Thump!
Qin Hai vented his anger, beating Senior Mu up in a certain corner.
"I am the grand White…"
"White my ass." Qin Hai punched Senior Mu's nose, blood splashed around.
"I am the noble Mu…"
Thump!
Qin Hai's punch landed on Senior Mu's face.
"You lowly…"
Thump!
Finally, Qin Hai landed a kick on Senior Mu's belly, kicking the noble Master Mu into the shape of a bow. The pink energy on his body faded and ultimately disappeared.
Plop!
His body collapsed to the ground powerlessly.
Shua!
The pink and white energy around them instantly vanished.
It's over!
"The pink energy has retreated…"
Chen Feng's eyes shone. At present, he was already able to see through some things. The pink energy here indeed had a consciousness and was seemingly capable of affecting the people here and controlling their minds.
In short, this pink things is what's creating trouble here? guessed Chen Feng. However, he had a faint feeling that things were not that simple either.
Chen Feng told Qin Hai what he had deduced. "This should be the case."
"So…" Qin Hai was silent for a short moment before he continued, "What's up with Xiao Rou?"
"??!" Chen Feng's expression darkened. "She's fine! I haven't eloped with her either. The Gene Production Association hasn't gone bankrupt either," Chen Feng stated grudgingly. This fellow was still immersed in the tannery song?
"But the lyrics…" Qin Hai muttered as he subconsciously recalled the lyrics.
"Gene Production Association!"
"Gene Production Association!"
"Went bankrupt!"
"Bastard boss Chen Feng incurred a debt of 350 million and eloped with Xu Fei! Out of choices, we had to use Xiao Rou to repay the debt…"
…
"???" Chen Feng wiped his sweat. "How many interpretations have you drawn from this song?"
Qin Hai: "…"
This melody was truly too demonic.
Qin Hai gave Chen Feng a deep glance. "This song must never be spread."
Chen Feng pondered and agreed. The hell, if this song was spread out, it would most probably go viral instantly. And next, everyone would be finished. Chen Feng and Xiao Rou would be finished…Xu Fei… oh, no, this guy would probably be the one to profit.
"I know."
Chen Feng was all too clear how easy it would be for this song to go viral. This thing could absolutely not be spread to the outside world.
"Let's go."
As the two rearranged their thoughts and finished their preparations, they continued forward.
After passing through Senior Mu's residence, they passed through several other residences, but surprisingly, these places were devoid of people.
"None of my senior apprentice brothers are around…" Qin Hai said with a solemn expression.
Chen Feng was surprised. "They have not fallen to the enemy's control?"
"Either they left right before something happened here, or…" Qin Hai shook his head as a terrifying idea sparked on his mind. "They sensed that they are not our opponent and stopped coming out one after another to deliver themselves on a platter to us. Rather… they have now formed a group to deal with us."
Chen Feng's heart chilled. True. If this pink energy had a consciousness of its own, something like forming a group… was quite possible.
Indeed. In their remaining journey, not a single person was seen. Even when they neared the center, nobody else appeared. Only a boundless pink could be seen. Qin Hai and Chen Feng increased their vigilance. This situation…
"Still nobody?" Qin Hai had a bad feeling.
Chen Feng frowned. "Wait." He gave it some thought and decided to send Xiao Ying out to scout ahead of them.
Shua!
The red flashed out. Xiao Ying transformed into nothingness and vanished. With the speed of light, Xiao Ying traversed the entire world of pink. Apart from the center, which he couldn't enter, all the other areas were explored. Not a single enemy was located.
Chen Feng raised an eyebrow. "Nobody?"
Swish!
Xiao Ying replayed the scenes he had seen. The only thing he had found was those they had defeated earlier.
Chen Feng was now sure. "It seems like they are all hiding at the center."
Qin Hai nodded with a solemn expression. "That's possible."
It would still have been fine if they had appeared one after another, but when they were all grouped together, things could be truly terrifying. The both of them continued forth. They braced themselves for a decisive battle, yet just as they reached their final destination, a silhouette of light flashed by suddenly.
"Careful!"
They were instantly on alert.
Shua! Shua!
Numerous pink silhouettes appeared.
"My fellow apprentice brothers, and also…": Qin Hai looked at them and was instantly alarmed. "President and Tianyu Liming."
Chen Feng followed his gaze and looked over. Every person in the Land of Legacy had appeared together here, right before the center of the Land of Legacy.
"All appeared…" Qin Hai muttered in a low voice. He was clear on the actual amount of people residing here.
"Is that so?" Chen Feng looked around with a sharp gaze. Xiao Ying had actually failed to notice their existence. Where had these fellows appeared from? Were they here to stop Chen Feng and Qin Hai from stepping into the center? What was happening within the center?
Bang!
The president's sturdy figure blocked Chen Feng's line of sight. If the pink clothes, pink miniskirt, and pink body hair on him were ignored…
Chen Feng was truly curious. With his eyebrow and body hair all dyed pink, what about the hairs at that specific part of his body?
Mhm…
The sight he pictured caused him to be speechless.
Swish! Swish!
Several silhouettes flickered, and next, Qin Hai's fellow apprentice brothers appeared around them, trying to block their advance.
Chen Feng laughed. "Interesting." With Tianyu Liming and the president as the main vanguard and four of Qin Hai's apprentice brothers as support, they were sealing all of Chen Feng and Qin Hai's escape routes from this place?
Qin Hai sneered. "Looks like we have been surrounded." He was clear on the strength of these apprentice brothers of his. Although they were very powerful compared to ordinary people, they were still the weaker ones among all the apprentices. Perhaps the pink energy was able to sense this as well and had thus grouped them together?
"Show us, then, how strong these apprentice brothers of yours are after fusing with the pink." Chen Feng's eyes became sharp.
Bang!
A bright radiance erupted. Chen Feng had actually taken the initiative to attack!

Chapter 628: Meet Duma
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Genetic Union.
The deputy president was reading the latest update with a solemn expression. This was the information the Research Agency had obtained from the ancient Land of Legacy. The information was rather blurry, yet the verdict pointed to something dreadful.
"That Duma is actually…" Fear appeared on the deputy president's face as he suddenly asked, "How long ago did they leave?"
"Half a day."
"…Got it." The deputy president sighed. Anyone who entered the Land of Legacy would lose contact with the outside world. New information was obtained, yet they had no way of transmitting it to Chen Feng.
"What should we do?" The assistant was anxious. If something happened to Chen Feng and the president in there…
"Trust him." The deputy president forced himself to calm down. "This child, Chen Feng, has created so many miracles throughout his rise. I believe he will be successful this time as well. After all, he is humanity's sole S class. Even if this guy is his opponent…"
He flipped open the information in his hand. There, a picture of a huge life-form could be seen, and by the right side of that life-form was detailed introduction on that life0form.
"Chen Feng… Both you and the president must return alive," the deputy president muttered.
…
At present, in the distant Land of Legacy, Chen Feng and Qin Hai were engaged in a huge battle against the president and the rest. These opponents were very powerful. Regardless of whether it was the president, Tianyu Liming, or Qin Hai's apprentice brothers, they had originally been peak beyond A classes. After fusing with the pink power, their strength had increased dramatically. Alas, it was a pity that regardless of how strong they got, they were still not S classes, not awakened.
Chen Feng pointed midair. "Destroy!"
A formidable power of disintegration bloomed, instantly destroying all abilities. This was his present strength. Even though when facing an opponent of his level, only spatial abilities could be destroyed in this fashion, these lower-level abilities used here were in a completely different league than him. A power below the awakened realm was too weak next to him.
Chen Feng hovered up. "Let this end."
Bang!
A terrifying power erupted. By himself, he faced everyone yet was still able to maintain absolute superiority. Apart from peculiar abilities like what Master Mu had, he did not fear these people.
Bang! Bang!
Once again, the battle escalated. Qin Hai was thinking of giving him a hand, yet with astonishment, he found that there was no need for his assistance. The present Chen Feng was too powerful.
The president and the rest were all peak beyond A classes. Coupled with the power of pink that they had fused with, they were already pseudo S classes. Therefore, their strength was not something one could underestimate. Yet Chen Feng…
With a single punch!
Bang!
The president was flung away.
Regardless of what attack he faced, what ability he faced, or how strong the attack was, before Chen Feng, nothing could escape that single fist of his. His fist appeared extremely normal, yet every single punch brought about an astonishing effect.
Qin Hai was shocked. "Is this the power of an awakened?" But then, how was this possible? Chen Feng, who had almost fallen under Master Mu's control earlier, was so powerful now? One ought to know that the strength of all these people combined was much greater than that of Senior Mu earlier.
Bang! Bang!
The battle ended shortly after. By the time Chen Feng stopped, the president and the rest were already lying on the ground. From the start, Chen Feng hadn't used many abilities or technique as he had delivered them a one-sided beating.
Qin Hai sighed. "Awakened…" He had still underestimated this realm after all.
Chen Feng laughed heartily. "Back then, before I gained an understanding of how to control awakened power, I received quite a lot of beatings as well. Now that I have grasped a certain level of control over the awakened power, it is natural that it's my turn to beat others up." This was what one could call suppression from a higher realm. Even those pseudo-awakened ones were still unable to use the awakened power, similar to the previous Chen Feng who had been clueless in terms of how to control awakened power.
As such, facing Chen Feng, these people here were simply delivering themselves to Chen Feng on a silver platter. The awakened power Chen Feng had comprehended was sufficient to disintegrate all their abilities, rendering everything ineffective. The premise for this was that the attacks first had to have some weakness he could exploit. As long as it was a traditional attack, regardless of whether it was a spatial attack, elemental attack, or some other ability, anything Chen Feng could actually see, he had no fear of facing it with brute force alone.
His present power of disintegration, the power he had gained by becoming an awakened, was something that gave him confidence even when facing people at his level. What Chen Feng feared most were those abilities that couldn't be seen, those with no actual form or shape. Facing those abilities, even if it was unleashed by someone of a lower realm, it might still pose him a threat. An example was the ability of that Senior Mu.
That Senior Mu was obviously a mere peak beyond A class, yet with his white diamond and the pink energy, the unleashed power had nearly caused Chen Feng to fall.
"You shouldn't have any other apprentice brothers with those abilities, right?" he asked.
"Nope." Qin Hai shook his head and looked at the collapsed apprentice brothers of his, who were all lying on the ground. "Those of the Land of Legacy were already low in number. And back then, some of them were killed off by you as well. At present, these are the only ones left here. In there, I reckon only Master is left."
Master…
Suddenly, Chen Feng recalled something. Duma?
Shua!
He raised his head abruptly. In front, around 100 meters from them, was the center of the Land of Legacy. A trace of a dangerous aura was already leaking out as an alarming power spread out of it.
Duma…
That old man?
Chen Feng took a deep breath. He had no idea if he was an opponent of that Duma. Yet from the enemies they had encountered thus far, the enemy seemed to be worried that they would intrude upon the center, right? If so, it was certain that the enemy was not capable of insta-killing him.
Chen Feng contemplated. After all, if that Duma was truly excessively powerful, he could easily insta-kill them both. There was no need to use such methods to stop their advance. Either Duma was too weak… or he was presently occupied with something else and couldn't deal with them. Chen Feng and Qin Hai exchanged glances, both agreeing with this possibility.
Chen Feng lacked any hesitation. "Let's go."
Qin Hai nodded. "Mhm." He was also curious about what exactly his master was planning by doing all this. The two of them advanced prudently. This time, nobody else appeared to stop them.
Clang!
They pushed the immense pink door open and finally entered the depths of the Land of Legacy. Yet the scene they saw gave them an immense shock. Before coming, they had prepared for numerous possibilities. Perhaps they would have to fight it out with this Duma, whose condition was unknown, putting their lives on the line. Regardless of what conspiracy was waiting for them, they were prepared to face it. They were already fully prepared for a bitter battle.
And yet…
Not even in their wildest dreams had they imagined that this would be the Duma they would see. The old man appeared as kind as ever, seemingly appearing exactly the same as before. Yet from the pink beard, pink eyebrow, and pink clothes… it was clear that even Duma had fallen under the control of the pink power.
Qin Hai's eyes widened. "Master?" He did not dare to believe this. He could understand his fellow apprentice brothers and sisters falling; however, how could an existence like his master…
"Hiss—" Chen Feng took in a deep breath in shock as well. He had truly wished dearly that all this was the doing of this Duma. Perhaps his cultivation had gone astray, or perhaps he had gone crazy from dressing up as a female, or for any other reason. It would be fine if all this had been the doing of Duma.
Why? Because if Duma wasn't behind all this, that signified that behind Duma… there was be an even more terrifying existence!

Chapter 629: Duma Is Not a Name
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Master?" Qin Hai called out, his voice shuddering. He truly wished that his master had merely suffered from his cultivation going astray. After all, things like this were rather usual. If that was what had happened instead…
"Hehe, you have arrived." Duma raised his head and gave Qin Hai a glance, the same kind expression still on his face. Yet in his eyes, killing intent could be seen. Qin Hai sank into silence. Duma's present state was completely the same as Qin Hai's fellow apprentice brothers. Even his master had fallen to the pink energy!
"Qin Hai." Chen Feng took a deep breath and asked, "Your master is only dressed up like this because his hobby is cross-dressing, right?"
Qin Hai: "…" He knew what answer Chen Feng was wishing to hear. Alas… Qin Hai sighed. "He has fallen."
Chen Feng's hands trembled. "F*ck." That was indeed the case! His lips felt dry. This plot did not seem right. Normally, the plot should have developed in a manner where after they charged in with great difficulty, they would be able to encounter the final boss. After killing the final boss, they could return victorious. Yet now even the final boss had turned pink. This was too excessive! Wasn't Senior Mu supposed to be the only one who possessed the power to brainwash everyone here in this Land of Legacy? Yet Senior Mu was clearly already dead.
Fine, Duma had already fallen under the enemy's control, but this posed a new question. Who was the person behind Duma? Transforming the power within the Land of Legacy and controlling everything here, who was it, exactly?
Suddenly, a feeling of horror arose in Chen Feng's heart. This was no longer a question of whether he could defeat Duma. Rather, the question was, after defeating Duma, what else would appear? This seemed like game over to him.
"Spirit, is Luck Aura done upgrading?" Chen Feng asked.
Spirit shook her head. "Nope."
Chen Feng: "…" It seemed like he would not be able to rely on his cheat this time. Ever since he had reached S class, it had been unreliable. He could only rely on himself now.
Shua!
The power of the awakened flashed in his hands. Chen Feng prepared for the start of the battle. Facing an enemy at the level of this Duma, he did not dare to be careless.
Duma looked at Chen Feng. "You are very strong. However, it is ineffective against me."
"Why are you guys stopping my advance, then?" Chen Feng's gaze swirled around as he instinctively started searched the area. "Where exactly is the source of that pink energy that was controlling all of you?" Chen Feng fixed his gaze on Duma as he said, "Perhaps… it's right here?" Indeed, the moment he finished his sentence, a nervous expression could be seen on Duma's face.
"Xiao Ying, search," Chen Feng urged inwardly. "Be careful of this guy. Do not approach him."
Shua!
Xiao Ying flashed out and went underground.
"Looks like it's indeed here." Chen Feng maintained a calm expression. "Therefore, you guys have been trying to stop our advance without stop, since if we battle here, that thing might be affected, right?" asked Chen Feng. He had a feeling that he would be able to obtain some clues from Duma. As for Spirit, she was analyzing all available information faithfully for Chen Feng.
Duma laughed. "Heehee. You are indeed extremely intelligent." He was clearly an old man, yet the tone with which he spoke was extremely bizarre. Combined with his pink clothing, he exuded a rather sinister aura.
"Unfortunately, you will not be able to find it," Duma said indifferently.
Shua!
Chen Feng and Qin Hai exchanged glances. Not able to find… In short, the source of the power that had transformed the entire Land of Legacy was really here? Moreover, from his words, that thing might truly be a certain power, or some other thing, instead of a person.
It seems like Duma might have been influenced by something he obtained… Chen Feng guessed. Qin Hai arrived at a similar conclusion as well. After all, things like items with unique powers that affected their masters were rather common occurrences. Besides, just recently, they had also found out about the existence of that small town called Mysterious Town.
Those primordial remnants there… Duma might have obtained something similar to those things. Both Chen Feng and Qin Hai were extremely intelligent people. In a short period of time, they were able to deduce a rather huge amount of information. Duma might have obtained an item from the Primordial Era and wanted to study it. In the end, he had been controlled by that item instead, and the power of that item had spread and enveloped the entire Land of Legacy. This sequence of events was rather logical.
Chen Feng heaved a sigh of relief. "Fortunately." If so, all would be fine as long as he could last long enough for Xiao Ying to discover that thing. Chen Feng exchanged glances with Qin Hai. Qin Hai agreed with his conclusion. If that was the case, they still had hope! As long as they found that thing, there might still be a way out of this!
Drag!
They both decided to drag this out.
Swish! Swish!
Xiao Ying streaked around underground, searching everywhere at a rapid speed.
As the previous awakened they had encountered had been able to discover Xiao Ying, this time, Xiao Ying was moving around cautiously to avoid detection, searching around while hiding carefully. This would require some time. Since this old man was a chatterbox, this was advantageous to Qin Hai and Chen Feng.
"Are you both thinking that I am a chatterbox?" suddenly, Duma asked.
What? Their hearts sank.
"Foolish children…" Duma smiled. "You two… I don't know what exactly you two are thinking about, nor I am aware of the reason you are trying to drag this out. But dear children… for me, time is a nonexistent factor. It is fine for Chen Feng to not be aware of this, but Qin Hai, my dearest disciple, even you are not aware of this?"
Hum—
A faint radiance surged out. Suddenly, Chen Feng and Qin Hai felt the energy within their bodies being exhausted at a rapid rate. Apart from that, even their appearances were aging at a rapid pace. Yet in front of them, Duma was turning young instead.
"???"
Chen Feng was alarmed. This…
Time! Duma was actually capable of controlling time! Suddenly, he recalled that the young lady from back then was apparently the daughter of this Duma. She had even given Chen Feng a figurine molded after herself. That young daughter lady seemed to possess the power of time as well!
One ought to know that the power of time was a power at a tier far above the power of space. Was this the power of an awakened? Chen Feng was shaken.
"He is absorbing our time!" Spirit said with a solemn expression.
Chen Feng pointed. "Disintegrate!" Alas, it was ineffective.
This power of his that had been able to disintegrate everything was ineffective against the power of time, which had no shape or form. Besides, this was also a power at the same level as his own. As such, the probability of his power working against it was rather low.
"Spirit, deduce the operation method of his ability," Chen Feng said inwardly.
"Deducing. However, time is required." Spirit appeared helpless.
Chen Feng was walking a path no human had ever walked before. As such, there were no predecessors he could learn from. As the first awakened of humanity, he would have to learn everything himself, including the how to use awakened power.
Two abilities had been learned from studying that devil expert. Now, facing this ancient awakened, Chen Feng had to study once again. Yet, worryingly, with this speed, by the time the study bore fruit, he would probably have been devoured to death by this Duma. The power of time was too scary. Yet at this moment, a trace of doubt and astonishment appeared on Qin Hai's face. As he immersed his senses in this power, he recalled something.
"Time… Such a power... Master once gave me something to read. Back then, I couldn't understand it."
Chen Feng recalled the scene back then. Suddenly, he gained some sort of understanding. "That mysterious race… That peculiar species… I understand now."
Qin Hai seemed to have finally understood something. "Duma… is in fact not a name!"

Chapter 630: What Exactly Is Duma Trying to Do?
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Chen Feng looked at Qin Hai. "What do you mean?"
Qin Hai laughed bitterly. "Hehe… What else can I mean? Before the Holy War, way before that… Master already existed. He had been alive for countless eras. Do you think anyone can stay alive for countless eras? No, that's not the case. Even the devil race, with their tenacious vitality... That devil expert was only able to increase his life span via a constant cycle of hibernation and waking up. Yet Master…" Qin Hai looked at Duma.
Chen Feng frowned. "He can absorb life force, right?" Duma's ability of was very terrifying. If he could truly control time, it would not be a problem for him to stay alive for countless years, since he could absorb time. Chen Feng had once had a dream. If each person in the world gave him a penny each, he would be able to be the richest person in the world. Naturally, this dream had gone unachieved.
As for Duma, if everyone gave him a second each… he would achieve eternal life!
"This is the story. Qin Hai sneered, "In the history of the ancient race, there was a mysterious period called 'God's Anger.' On that day, everyone was able to feel some abnormalities. Naturally, with their strength at that time, they were not able to discover anything. Even the records of the later generations only mentioned this in passing without an in-depth explanation. However, if one thinks back to this now, one might notice that the so-called 'God's Anger' was merely a leap in time. Each and every person lost a single second of their life. This is what actually happened."
Chen Feng took in a deep breath. "Hiss—" Damn, this old man had truly done that? One had to know that in Chen Feng's previous life, there had indeed… Oh, forget it, that was in the past. Since this old man had succeeded in his undertaking, what was Qin Hai's intention in mentioning this?
"Do you think that regularly, one would be able to absorb so much time?" Qin Hai shook his head. "That's not possible. Don't think that it is a good thing if a normal person were to suddenly have a lot of time. The moment the time of the entire world gathered in a single person, there would be only one result. That person would have his time extended so much that he suffers death."
So that's the case. Chen Feng found himself in agreement to that.
Suddenly, Chen Feng recalled the Spirit Bomb from Dragon Ball in his previous life. This was a supreme technique created by gathering everyone's energy. A power at that level wasn't something an ordinary person could sustain.
"A human can't, an ancient can't, and a devil can't." Qin Hai coldly continued, "In this world, for someone to be able to endure such power, there is only one possibility…"
Chen Feng couldn't help himself. "El... elder?" [1] 1
"What?" Qin Hai blanked. "What's that?"
"No, nothing." Chen Feng coughed. "You are referring to…"
"Scarab." Qin Hai looked at Duma and said, "The early Primordial Era was a wondrous era. At that time, the war had yet to erupt. At that time, gods were still everywhere. At that time, there was a particular race said to be the descendants of gods. They possessed formidable strength, their bodies were sturdy and strong, and naturally, what others envied the most was their long life spans. Their life spans were second to none. Even a certain powerful deity once said that if a war between races were to erupt, the scarab race might be the race to survive, as they could simply outlive all the other races, including the gods."
Before him, Duma maintained his silence, merely looking at him with a cold gaze. There were several times where Duma had wanted to make a move yet had been restricted by some unknown power.
Chen Feng's lip twitched. "Outliving gods…" Truly worthy of being a race with a long life span. However, the term scarab was something he had heard before. Despite his low understanding of it, he could clearly remember from his previous life on earth that this was something related to pyramids, pharaohs, or something similar, a legendary life-form of the west. Of course, if one wanted Chen Feng to describe this thing called a scarab, it would be a dyed beetle.
In short… Chen Feng looked at Duma. This old man is in fact a huge beetle?
Duma: "…" He had no idea what Chen Feng was thinking, yet he still felt annoyed by Chen Feng's gaze. Of course, if he knew what Chen Feng was thinking about, he would most certainly have been enraged then and there.
Qin Hai narrated, "The scarab race is legendary. Due to them being too amazing, it is said that in the beginning of the war, they were the first race to be eliminated. Although the other races all hated each other, if any members of the scarab race were to appear suddenly, they would temporarily forget their hatred and join hands to kill the scarabs."
Chen Feng remained silent. This scarab race was so hated?
Qin Hai shook his head. "They were too powerful, thus attracting hatred due to jealousy. This was something they couldn't do anything about either. In a war-torn era, everyone knew that the scarab race was capable of outliving everyone. If so, how could anyone give them a chance?"
"Are you sure it's not because of their smell?" Chen Feng started imagining a sight where there were so many beetles that the sky was covered, and he was horrified by his own imagination.
Qin Hai blanked. "What smell?"
Chen Feng coughed. "No, nothing."
"???" Qin Hai glanced at Chen Feng with an odd gaze. He did not think much of his comments and continued, "Back then, Master was the one who told me the story of the scarab race. I never expected that a member of the scarab race indeed survived. That very survivor is Master! The language of the scarab race is very complicated, and I have never studied it. I forgot about it not long after master told me about it. But earlier, I recalled something… and after thinking about Master's name, I was finally able to understand everything." Qin Hai completed his narrative, "In the scarab race's language, 'duma' means chief, and the chief was the strongest among the scarab race."
Shua!
Chen Feng was instantly alarmed.
Duma… was actually the chief of a powerful race from the Primordial Era? This was too inconceivable!
Duma merely laughed coldly. "Hehe."
He looked at these two idiots as they gradually grew old within his ocean of time. Regardless of Chen Feng or Qin Hai, both were becoming old. Each second they dragged on, death approached. As such, Duma wasn't bothered with stopping them and merely watched on as they courted death themselves, watching on as they wasted their precious lives, becoming older and older.
"Are you thinking that we are very stupid?" Qin Hai smiled. "My master once told me a lot about the scarab race, the scarab race's abilities, their legends, and also"—suddenly, Qin Hai's expression became cold—"the battle of the scarab race." As he finished his sentence, he lifted his hand lightly. "You are exhausting our time away, but I am also waiting for time. Time is the strongest trump card of your scarab race, yet it's also your biggest weakness."
Swish!
Qin Hai pointed.
Bang!
With that point, a bright radiance erupted. A faint power of time bubbled up and started rupturing from within. All the power of time started transforming, aging, and all failed. Instantly, Qin Hai's and Chen Feng's somewhat aged appearances reverted, transforming back to their youthful appearances. The backlash of the formidable power of time had started.
"You…" Duma couldn't believe it. "You actually know of this?"
Qin Hai laughed. "Hehe. Therefore, you are definitely not my master. Even if you are controlling his body, controlling his consciousness, you will never be him… You… are too weak!"
Bang!
The terrifying power of time shattered. Chen Feng and Qin Hai returned to normal, and an expression of suffering appeared on Duma's face due to the backlash. He started yelling, and numerous bizarre radiances flashed past his face.
Finally… accompanied by a loud roar…
Shua!
An immense black figure appeared. After being ravaged by the power of time, Duma had revealed his real body!

Chapter 631: Where's the Promised Scarab Race?
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Chen Feng's expression became solemn. Here it comes! He knew that the moment Duma's real body appeared was also the moment the true battle would start. Both he and Qin Hai had been waiting for this. Alas, even though Chen Feng had prepared himself for this, when his gaze landed on Duma's body, he blanked. This… where was the promised scarab? Where was the promised beetle? What appeared wasn't a bug at all. Rather, it was a huge and imposing turtle that was exuding a dreadful amount of vitality.
Chen Feng was stupefied. "Tur... turtle?"
"Yeah," Qin Hai answered, as if this was what it should be. "Due to their omnipotent shells, they were called the scarab race. Even during the Primordial era, they were the strongest race."
Chen Feng was astonished. "Oh, so the so-called divine shell actually refers to turtle shell."[1] 1
"What else?" Qin Hai felt like this buddy of his was rather absent minded today.
Chen Feng spoke instinctively. "I thought it was a beetle."
Shua!
The world lapsed into silence. Qin Hai's lip twitched. Even Duma, who had just completed his transformation, became furious as he heard this. Evidently, he had finally understood what Chen Feng's gaze from earlier had meant.
Duma was furious. What the f*ck, you are the one that's a freaking beetle! Your entire family is a beetle! Intense killing intent leaked from his body as he prepared to move against them.
Chen Feng finally understood. In short, Duma wasn't some beetle. Rather, he was the legendary turtle chief! Chen Feng gasped in admiration.
Bang!
Duma's killing intent intensified. A terrifying power gathered as he decided to no longer hold back. Even though his consciousness was presently being controlled, he still possessed the sanctity of the scarab race. This feeble human deserved death!
"Careful," Qin Hai warned Chen Feng. Both of them increased their vigilance to the extreme. Yet at this precise moment, a sudden and bizarre sound traveled over.
The door of a nearby building was suddenly opened. A little turtle wobbled out of it, swaying while humming a song at the same time.
"The shell is too heavy, if I don't sway, I will be pushed to the ground."
"The shell is too heavy, if I don't sway, I will be pushed to the ground."
"The shell is too heavy, if I don't sway, I will be pushed to the ground."
…
Shua!
The entire world seemed to lapse into silence. Only the intoxicating song of the turtle lingered in the air. Chen Feng and Qin Hai looked at the little turtle that was walking over with astonishment. Even the furious Duma calmed down and looked at that swaying little turtle with a bizarre gaze. Yet that turtle did not seem to notice anything. While wobbling, the turtle sang. As a turtle, it was evident that despite being so drowsy, this turtle was still able to stand steadily without collapsing to the ground.
Chen Feng looked at the turtle in astonishment. "It's him!" Even though the size of this fellow had been greatly reduced, Chen Feng was still able to recognize him with a single look. This was precisely that giant turtle they had encountered in the frigid cave back then.
Mhm, had he still been an F class back then, or had he been E class? In any case, it was this turtle. Back then, this turtle had been driven away by Wang Yao. Ultimately, he had been killed by Chen Feng's group below the sea. Yet unexpectedly, they once again saw this turtle here! This was rather inconceivable!
Qin Hai was similarly shocked as well. "This turtle…" He remembered clearly that rather than being his master's pet, this turtle was actually his master's favorite food. Every day, this turtle would experience numerous methods of dying before being cooked, whether he was lightly fried, deep fried, or cooked via one of numerous other methods. As part of the scarab race, a race that also had shells, it was truly excessively cruel for his master to do this to a turtle…
And thus, Chen Feng, Qin Hai, and Duma looked at the little turtle with odd gazes. The turtle wobbled three times each step he took. Just like that, the little turtle walked past the battlefield. Something did not feel right…
Chen Feng and Qin Hai exchanged glances. Qin Hai nodded slightly, evidently feeling that something was wrong as well, yet at the same time, he had a feeling that everything was right. This little turtle…
When they glanced over once again, their pupils suddenly widened. At this moment, they had finally discovered the abnormality they had been feeling earlier. This damnable turtle seemed fine and was even residing here… yet it's color was normal instead of pink!
At a place like this, this appearance was incredibly out of place. Even a final-boss-type character like Duma, the scarab, had fallen. How had this turtle remained fine? Could it be that the actual final boss was actually…
"Swaying along with the shell, swaying along with the shell. Ao ao ao~" The turtle was still singing that enchanting melody. When he passed the battlefield, suddenly, his eyes opened wide. All four limbs paddled at a rapid speed as he ran at an insane speed.
"Mom, the old turtle has gone crazy! So scary! I don't want to cross-dress!"
…
Swish!
With a flash, the turtle vanished. Chen Feng swore this was the first time he had seen a turtle run so fast. Even with the super vision he had as an awakened, he had failed to follow the movements of this turtle. This speed was too shocking.
Before Chen Feng and Qin Hai could move, Duma, who as by their side, suddenly shouted, "Where are you running?"
Bang!
He took a single step forward.
Bang!
The earth trembled.
Duma raised his head high as a sinister appearance appeared on his pink turtle head. "As a turtle spirit, instead of allowing me to eat you obediently, you are thinking of rebelling?"
Bang!
With a roar, Duma gave up on Chen Feng and Qin Hai and started chasing after the little turtle.
This…
Chen Feng was stupefied. What plot was this? This plot did not seem right? He rubbed his head. They had both dragged the time on nonstop to allow Xiao Ying to discover the origin of the pink energy. What about Duma, then? Chen Feng could clearly feel that this guy was trying to drag this out as well. Why was that?
"Perhaps, some traces of master's consciousness remain?" Qin Hai guessed.
"Perhaps." Chen Feng did not comment much on it. He looked at Duma, who was chasing after the little turtle. "Turtle spirit… What exactly is the identity of that little turtle?"
"I don't know." Qin Hai shook his head. "Master has eaten that fellow countless times and has resurrected him countless times as well for some unknown reason. I don't know what it is that he is seeking."
Chen Feng: "…" Eating and resurrecting… Suddenly, he had a rather alarming guess. "In short, at present, your master's innate instinct as a foodie has prevailed over the control of the pink energy?"
"How is that possible?" Qin Hai rejected that instinctively, yet when he looked at his master, who was chasing after the little turtle, he couldn't say anything.
Holy shit… this can't be true, right?
This… was even more unacceptable than his master being controlled by someone else! Even though his master had fallen under the control of the pink energy, from the steps and preparations of his master from a long time ago, he could sense how unfathomable and powerful his master was. It turned out that his master had long prepared for this situation where he was controlled by the pink energy. So it turned out that everything his master had taught him and the things he had given him were useful after all…
Yet…
What in the world was this? The awakening of his instinct as a foodie?
"Ahahahahahahahah—I am unwilling to be eaten by you! I am the spirit turtle, not turtle jelly! Duma, screw you!"

Chapter 632: The Lag That Hadn't Been Experienced for a While
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"I am the divine spirit! It is pointless for you to eat this young master here. My purity is too high, so high your idiotic scarab race can never hope to absorb it. Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah." The little turtle ran as he screamed. Chen Feng and Qin Hai watched on with amazement. So this fellow was actually the spirit turtle of the scarab race.
Bang! Bang!
Duma chased after the little turtle in a frenzy. Chen Feng and Qin Hai watched on and allowed this to drag on. In any case, they could end this the moment Xiao Ying found the source of the pink energy. Alas, at this moment, the little turtle howled, "Qin Hai, why are you still not saving me?"
Qin Hai: "…"
"We have known each other for so many years. Even if there are no emotions between us, there should be some degree of bromance, right?" the little turtle cried for help.
Qin Hai: "…"
Each time I saw you, you were in master's pot. Where was the bromance?
"I knew of your identity as a human, yet I never exposed you," the little turtle howled. "What's that saying of the humans? Familiarity begets fondness. We have been together for so long, there should be some fondness by now, right? Quick, save me!"
Qin Hai: "…"
Who in the world was together for long with you? If you don't know the human sayings, don't use them in such a misleading manner, all right?
The little turtle screamed miserably. "Ao—"
"Is there a need for this?" Qin Hai rolled his eyes. "This is not your first time being eaten. Why are you struggling so bitterly?"
"No, it's not the same!" the little turtle screamed. "This stupid Duma seems off today. If I really get eaten by him today, I will most probably be gone for real. Holy shit, I have no intentions of being food for real!"
Gone for real…
Chen Feng and Qin Hai exchanged knowing glances.
"What should we do?" Qin Hai asked.
"Save him," Chen Feng said without hesitation.
What they had said earlier about foodies had, after all, been a joke. For Duma to have given up on Chen Feng and Qin Hai even in this situation where he was being controlled and instead concentrate on chasing after the little turtle, there was only a single possibility: the little turtle contained boundless energy. If Duma ate the turtle, he might very well become even stronger. This was what they were worried about.
Therefore, no matter what, the little turtle had to be rescued!
Shua!
Both stood up instantly, thinking to stop Duma.
Duma waved his hand casually. "Scram!" A formidable power enveloped both Chen Feng and Qin Hai. This was still the power of time.
Chen Feng tried to destroy time.
Destroy!
The black diamond on Qin Hai's forehead shone.
Extinguish!
In a well-practiced manner, they destroyed the power of time enveloping them only to discover that in fact, a long time had passed in the outside world.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah—"
The little turtle was already on the verge of being captured.
"Time…" Chen Feng's head ached. If they faced Duma with brute force, even if the power of time would trouble them, they could still keep Duma busy. But now, Duma only needed to use his power of time to create a time difference to render the both of them completely useless.
"This won't do," Qin Hai said with a solemn expression. If this continued, they would never be able to save the little turtle.
Chen Feng concentrated his gaze. "Time…" This power was too scary, seemingly flawless. Even if he could destroy Duma's ability with brute force, he would still be affected by the power of time. As such, he and Qin Hai would always be too late to rescue the little turtle. They were both awakened ones, yet the difference between him and Duma was so very large. If not for the abnormal state Duma was in, Duma could probably eliminate both Chen Feng and Qin Hai any time he wished.
Shua!
The two moved and were once again trapped in time. It was the same time difference ability Duma had used earlier.
"Let me think…" Chen Feng rubbed his head. The flow of their time would forever be slower than Duma's. This wouldn't do. However, they had no access to powers capable of contending against the power of time. Therefore…
Hold on.
Suddenly, Chen Feng thought of something. Time! Yes, time! Duma was not the only one with the power of time. Chen Feng had an ability with the power of time as well. Time Quicksand! His eyes shone brightly.
He couldn't control, change, or absorb time like Duma; he could only exhaust time. However, if he could use it in an appropriate manner…
Shua!
Once again, he moved. Duma wasn't the least bothered. With a casual wave, the power of time was unleashed again.
Time Quicksand!
Shua!
Time jumped forward. Whether it was Chen Feng or Duma, Qin Hai or the little turtle, everyone's time leaped shortly.
One second!
And the power of time unleashed by Duma vanished noiselessly within this one second.
Success!
Chen Feng's eyes shone. Now! Move!
Bang!
A bright radiance erupted. Duma's pink claw that was about to land on the little turtle was smashed away by Chen Feng, brushing past the little turtle.
"You actually managed to arrive…" Duma's eyes gleamed coldly. The time difference ability he had unleashed had actually been broken by Chen Feng. That was the power of time! How had this kid…For the first time, he looked at this young human seriously.
"Hahahaha. Kill him!" The high-spirited little turtle stood behind Chen Feng. "You pink turtle, actually thinking of touching this young master? Just you wait to be transformed into turtle soup!"
Chen Feng: "…"
Had this fellow forgotten that he himself was also a turtle?
"Interesting," Duma said in a deep voice. He had never believed in coincidences. During that split second earlier, he had sensed a familiar power. The time difference he had unleashed had actually skipped to the future. "You possess the power of time skip?" Duma sneered. "In that case... let me show you the power of unlimited time skips."
Bang!
His four pink claws stood on the ground. A faint chronal power shrouded his surroundings, a powerful force lingering within.
What is this? Chen Feng and Qin Hai frowned. Everything felt fine for them.
And yet, as they were about to make a move, their expressions changed greatly. At this moment, they finally understood the function of this new ability Duma had unleashed.
Shua!
Chen Feng raised his hand, clearly feeling his movement slowing down.
"This…"
Fear appeared on his face. Lag! Time Lag! His line of thought had already been transmitted. His body had already moved. And yet his reaction time was evidently slower by one or two seconds now. Even after his brain stopped urging his body to move, his body would still continue moving for an extra one or two seconds due to inertia. This…
Chen Feng took a deep breath. Lag, a term that should only exist in online games for him. He had never imagined that a day would come when he would even lag in real life, and for it to be so scary! This was a feeling he hadn't felt for a very long time. In his memories, the last time he had suffered such lag and ended up killed in a ridiculous fashion by his enemy had been in his previous life when he'd played a game called PUBG.
Bang!
In a flash, he and Qin Hai were blasted away, since their movements were now lagging behind. Their brains were able to move at normal speed, but everything else lagged. Their entire bodies seemed to move much slower than before. This was the scariest aspect of lag. This time, they were in deep trouble.

Chapter 633: How the Hell Are We Supposed to Fight with This Lag?
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Ah ah ah ah ah… you perverted pink turtle! There are so many things you can learn, yet you learned to lag?" The little turtle ran away while scolding endlessly. "The scarab race's face has been thrown away by you! What is the point of learning this thing? Isn't it better to learn to preserve time rather than lag it?" Amazingly, this little turtle did not seem affected by the lag effect at all.
Hold on… What's up with preserving time? So even turtles have the problem where they can't "last long"?[1] 1
Even more amazingly, due to the time lag, every action of Chen Feng's and Qin Hai's was delayed by two seconds. The entire world seemed to be lagging. What feeling was this? Those who had gamed before would understand this feeling, a feeling where one wished one were dead instead. One had obviously hit the enemy, yet the lag caused them to deal no damage. One had obviously evaded the enemy attack, yet they discovered that they had still received damage. This was simply absurd.
At present, this was exactly what they were experiencing. Saving the little turtle? Well, it wasn't possible now. In their current circumstance, even preserving their own lives posed a problem.
Chen Feng was shaken. "Is this the real strength of Duma?"
Shua! Shua!
The sight before his eyes would sometimes skip forward or sometimes be cut short, causing him intense discomfort. This could not be allowed to continue. Chen Feng and Qin Hai exchanged glances. If they allowed Duma to capture the little turtle and consume him just like that, Duma's strength would most probably be temporarily boosted. At that time, it would truly be game over for them.
"Spirit, can you study this for me?" Chen Feng asked inwardly. His thoughts were simple. Since everything lagged by one or two seconds, they would simply have to deduce the events two seconds into the future. Through deductions, they could adjust their movements so it flowed naturally. Alas…
Spirit shook her head helplessly. "It won't work."
This was not a simple deduction. Rather, to make up for these two seconds of lag they were experiencing, only those mythical and powerful foresight abilities would work.
"No?" Chen Feng was somewhat disappointed. "Then, what if you study Duma's ability?"
Suddenly, Chen Feng thought of something. Back then, the devil expert had used advanced spatial abilities. After an intense and bitter battle, Chen Feng had studied him thoroughly before breaking apart his ability. Through that, Chen Feng had obtained a minor disintegration ability and a major spatial-destruction ability. Now, facing Duma…
Shua! Shua!
Numerous numbers flashed through his brain. This was all the data they had collected since this battle had started.
"Are there any results?" Chen Feng asked.
Spirit shook her head. "Nope. Your disintegration ability, though weak, is still your core ability. From the data obtained through this battle, I have already improved your disintegration ability. In the future, you will be able to disintegrate the power of time as well. Naturally, this is only limited to basic time abilities."
"How about this lag…"
Spirit shook her head. "Nope."
This lag was obviously a major ability of Duma's that involved complex calculations. In a short period of time, it was impossible for it to be fully studied. Spirit could only record it down to slowly study it in the future.
Bang! Bang!
In the distance, a bright eruption could be seen. Duma was only a slight distance away from the little turtle now. However, even this was the lagged scene that Chen Feng was seeing. Perhaps the little turtle had already been caught by Duma.
Damn it! Chen Feng cursed inwardly. Was there no other way? It wasn't like this was an online game where a VPN could settle the lag…
Chen Feng felt too helpless to even berate this.
However, just as this thought flashed through his mind, he blanked. V... VPN? Yes! If a VPN could be used for online games, why couldn't one be used for him? Essentially, VPNs were just accelerators. By way of changing connection nodes, it could help one's internet speed improve, counteracting the lag. For this VPN to work, it would require a better server to serve as the connecting node between his internet and the online game. And now, this server was what Chen Feng required, a real-life server!
"I need a server to see the actual situation without the lag. On top of that, this server must also be able to transmit what it sees to me. Therefore…"
Chen Feng's eyes flashed. Only Xiao Ying fit the requirements for this.
"Xiao Ying! Leave the lagging area and observe this place from long distance and reconstruct the scenes you see in my brain," Chen Feng commanded inwardly.
Swish!
Xiao Ying shot out, leaving the lagging domain. His real body shot off far away. Staying in his half-illusory mode, he transmitted the real scene of what was happening to Chen Feng. Within Chen Feng's brain, Spirit speedily rearranged all the transmitted data.
Inwardly, Chen Feng spoke solemnly. "Spirit, the scene sent by Xiao Ying is from his long-distance angle. I need you to study and analyze it, transforming it into a first-person view from my perspective."
Spirit nodded. "Understood." She couldn't read the future. However, through the scenes sent by Xiao Ying, she would not have any problems transforming the scenes sent by Xiao Ying into a first-person perspective for Chen Feng.
Shua! Shua!
Soon after, Spirit was done. And next, when Chen Feng once again opened his eyes, he saw the real world! Perfect! No lag!
"Success!" Chen Feng was overjoyed. A brand-new world could now be seen. That was not his only gain. With Xiao Ying observing from far away, Chen Feng's new vision covered an even wider area. He could see things he couldn't normally see, including behind him! This was the benefit of transforming a third-person view into a first-person view. The additional scenes that had been eliminated from his view after the transformation to first-person view were now transforming into floating screens and indicators, flickering around Chen Feng.
So powerful! Chen Feng himself was shocked by how overpowered this was. This was no longer something as simple as seeing through things. Rather, this was an eye technique, in a sense.
Furthermore, this new ability he had created could not only be used to solve this lag problem. He could even use it to enhance his sight in environments where one's sight was restricted, enabling him to see different things.
"This thing here…" Chen Feng lamented. If he had to give this new ability a name, he would name it "Xiao Ying VPN."
Shua!
He swept his gaze around. Following the indicator, he saw that the distant Duma was already grabbing the little turtle in his hand. With a sneer, Chen Feng acted without hesitation.
Bang!
The earth crumbled. Duma retracted his hand coldly and gazed at Chen Feng while frowning. He couldn't imagine that Chen Feng was actually able to escape his lag domain. That was, after all, the lag domain…
Duma looked over and saw that Qin Hai was still flickering about persistently within. Evidently, Chen Feng was the only one that had escaped the domain.
"Coincidence?" he assumed instinctively.
Shua!
Once again, he grabbed at the little turtle.
Bang!
Once again, Chen Feng smashed his hand away.
Finally, Duma realized the truth. "You have indeed broken free." He was sure now that Chen Feng had broken out of his lag domain. No traces of energy could be felt, no abilities had been used—just like that, he had noiselessly broken out. This fellow…
Fear flashed through Duma's eyes before they flashed pink. Finally, his gaze moved away from the little turtle to focus on Chen Feng.
"Looks like I have to first kill you."
Bang!
Boundless killing intent surged from Duma's body.

Chapter 634: Signs of Returning to Mother's Womb
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
This old man was getting serious. Chen Feng had a solemn expression, feeling like he had a thorny problem on his hands. The time lag was still tolerable, as Xiao Ying VPN was capable of showing him what was happening out there in real time. Coupled with Spirit's deductions and analysis, he was able to deal with it. The lag effect seemed to be ineffective against Spirit. It might seem like the time taken for Xiao Ying to transmit the scenes and for Spirit to complete the deduction would still slow Chen Feng's reaction time, but in actual fact, it did not affect him much.
Shua!
Duma canceled the time lag. The world before Chen Feng's eyes turned back to normal, yet he did not dare to reduce his vigilance. This was Duma, the leader of the scarab race. Based on what Qin Hai had said earlier, the scarab leader was an extremely respectable and authoritative position, akin to being the king of an entire race. Regardless of who it was, the one who reached this position would be called Duma.
The scarab race was good at time abilities. Time abilities were the most unique of all abilities and were extremely rare. Since Duma was the king of this scarab race, there was no doubt that he would be good at time manipulation.
Time leap? Time slow? All these were mere basic abilities for him. For the scarab race to be considered a threat by all other races during the Primordial Era, their prowess was evident.
Chen Feng looked at Qin Hai. "What will he do this time?"
Qin Hai shook his head. "No idea. Most time abilities are related to one's consciousness. Under normal circumstances, this wouldn't be too big of a problem for the user. But now, with Master's unstable state as a result of being controlled by the pink energy, he won't be able to display the true power of time. Therefore, the abilities he has used and will use are all abilities that won't be influenced by the state of his consciousness," Qin Hai explained.
"I see." Chen Feng contemplated. It was no wonder that he kept feeling like Duma's abilities weren't that powerful. Moreover, even though Duma seemed to have everything under control, no move had been made against Chen Feng and Qin Hai. The reason for that was his lack of confidence in totally killing them. For the present him, the little turtle was the utmost priority.
If so, this killing intent…
Chen Feng gazed at Duma, who had locked on to him. Suddenly, he was startled awake as he realized something. He had nearly fallen for Duma's trick. This guy seemed to be preparing an ultimate ability, yet in fact, his target was still the little turtle. As he thought of this, Chen Feng directly lifted the little turtle and placed the turtle on his body.
"…" The killing intent that Duma had been condensing stagnated. "You are courting death." He was truly furious now.
Shua!
Numerous abilities appeared in Duma's brain. These time abilities all seemed so terrifying, yet after browsing them all, he noted that he couldn't use most of them due to this damnable consciousness. Fortunately, there were still some powerful abilities he could use. His focus landed on the few abilities that he could still use. If it was this ability…
Shua!
Suddenly, his gaze flickered and glimmered with a faint radiance.
Hum—
Power of time, bloom!
"What is this?" Chen Feng was on alert. Even though the present Duma was half-crippled and could only unleash a small portion of his real strength, this small portion alone was already sufficient to kill both him and Qin Hai. This was, after all, the power of time…
Hum—
The faint energy rippled past. Chen Feng frowned, not feeling any changes. Time? The time undulation hadn't changed. Age? No changes there either. Just as he was feeling puzzled, suddenly, his body felt somewhat different. With astonishment, he noticed that he had become slightly weaker.
"???" He was dumbstruck. A time ability capable of reducing one's strength? What in the world? Even more shocking was the fact that Chen Feng had noticed with horror that both he and Qin Hai had become slightly younger.
This…
Chen Feng took in a deep breath. Time reversal! Damn it! Finally, Chen Feng understood. In fact, they had once encountered numerous time-reversing abilities. However, most of those abilities had only been capable of inferring things that had happened in the past. They had been abilities used for investigation and analysis. Here, what Duma had used was a true reversal of time.
He was reversing time, reversing Chen Feng to the Chen Feng from before. Last year, the year before that, three years ago, this would continue all the way until before he had even been born. The moment he reached that point, he would directly die. Naturally, there wasn't even a need for the reversal to go that far back, as it would waste too much energy. As such, the reversal only needed to reach the period when he was at his weakest…
"This is one of my minor abilities." Duma sneered. "After all, the opponents during the Primordial Era all had long life spans. Even those not of the scarab race had extremely long life spans, rendering this ability useless. Any random person would require me to reverse several thousands of years for it to be effective. As such, even for me in my peak form, this ability is rather useless. But against you guys… humans… Hahahaha, you guys are too short lived! Let me take a good look at your weakest period."
Bang!
The power of time bubbled up.
Chen Feng's expression darkened. Damn it! For others, this ability might need to reverse ten-odd years or even several decades for it to be effective. But for Chen Feng? Only several years would be required for Chen Feng to be reduced to a normal person. The time he had cultivated was too short. This wouldn't do.
"Spirit, are you not done yet?" Chen Feng urged anxiously. From the start of this battle, Spirit had been studying Duma's power of time. He wanted to do the same thing he had done when he'd faced the devil expert, creating an ability unique to him from this. Alas, he had yet to succeed even now.
"No." A conflicted expression appeared on Spirit's face. "This power is much more complicated than the devil's power."
So far, the results of their study could only improve Chen Feng's disintegration ability. Apart from that, it was useless.
How about Xiao Ying? Forget it, he's probably still searching for the source of the pink energy. Chen Feng rubbed his head. Suddenly, he found that he was out of external options. Spirit and Xiao Ying were occupied, while Luck Aura was still silent. At present, he could only rely on himself.
Power…
Chen Feng started recalling all the abilities he had. Time Quicksand? He did not dare to use it. The moment time skipped, he might die as well.
At present, his time was flowing backward. If he dared to skip time, it was likely that only a second would pass in the real world yet he would already be near death.
God Punisher…
Forget it. This thing contained Time Quicksand. He couldn't use it either. Naturally, against an opponent on the level of Duma, these normal abilities wouldn't work anyway. Facing an awakened one, only powerful awakened powers would work. As for Chen Feng, he only had two awakened abilities. One was the Useless Void Destroyer, which only worked on spatial abilities, while the other was his Star Disintegration Finger.
--
Star Disintegration Finger: a basic awakened ability capable of disintegrating basic abilities of all ability types.
--
After being improved by Spirit, this Star Disintegration Finger was even more powerful. Unfortunately, facing an advanced ability such as this time reversal, a formless and directionless ability, Chen Feng was helpless and could only watch on.
In short… there were no solutions? Chen Feng's heart chilled. It was over. He watched on as his strength declined rapidly as time reversed unendingly. He was nearing the bottleneck before S class. He knew that it wouldn't be long before he would drop from S class. At that time, it would truly be game over for him. Yet he couldn't do anything and could only watch on as he reached the border of S class. On the verge of dropping from S class…
Huh?
Suddenly, an odd expression appeared on his face. This…

Chapter 635: Thank You, Bro!
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Time reverse! This ability that was regarded by Duma as trash was presently displaying an astonishing effect. Even Chen Feng, who was similarly an awakened, was helpless before it.
"Humans…" Duma smiled. Humans were truly too weak. During the Ancient Era, any random one of those old fellows would have had a life span of several thousand years. If he had tried using his time reversal on them, he would probably have exhausted all his energy before being able to do anything of substance to the enemy. But here… Humans had a short several-decade life span, and this Chen Feng was even younger.
Duma waved his hand indifferently. "Die." The time he needed to reverse to reduce Chen Feng from the awakened realm was not even several decades. Only a short period of time needed to be reversed on Chen Feng and he would be able to easily kill Chen Feng.
Mhm… it's about time. He could see that Chen Feng's aura was becoming unstable. That's right. Chen Feng was going to drop back to A class soon. His awakened aura became unstable. Right at this moment, he noted that Chen Feng's expression became weird. A smile appeared on Chen Feng's face.
?!
This guy…
Duma raised his brows. Had Chen Feng's brain been reversed so much that he had become retarded? He had no idea what was happening to Chen Feng. However, this smile of Chen Feng's, for reasons unknown, gave him an uncomfortable feeling. As such, he sent a probing attack at Chen Feng.
Swish!
A simple ray of light shot at Chen Feng. This was a simple awakened attack. However, with Chen Feng's present state where he was on the verge of dropping out of the awakened realm, it was impossible for him to block this attack.
Therefore…
Duma widened his eyes, his gaze fixed on Chen Feng. Indeed, Chen Feng did not even bother blocking the attack. Just like that, he allowed the light to sweep past him.
Shua!
Just like that, the ray of light vanished.
"???" Duma was dumbstruck. Gone? Chen Feng had obviously not moved… What did this guy… Duma had an ominous feeling.
At present, at a certain location within the unknown region, within a dense forest that humanity had yet to reach, a leopard was lazing about by a lake. It had been eating so much that it was as plump as a ball.
Ahh, too comfortable. Since this leopard had given up covetting that damnable stone, life had been beautiful. At present, this leopard had even become the guardian of that stone.
Mhm…
Anyone thinking of touching that stone would have to first pass through this leopard. It could remember clearly the first time it had protected the stone. It had merely been trying to hunt those injured animals to fill its stomach. Yet as time had passed, it noticed that its strength had been increasing rapidly. This was seemingly related to that stone.
Mhm…
The leopard reasoned that this had to be the blessing of the gods. From that day onward, the leopard had been the guardian of the stone. Life had been too comfortable since then. The leopard flipped its plump body around.
Suddenly, a faint aura swept past. The leopard shivered as all its fur stood up. The leopard stood up abruptly and looked at the center of the lake. There, the stone, which had remained silent for so long, was shaking.
Hum—
Hum—
The stone shook and flickered at the same time. A terrifying power shimmered around the stone, causing the hearts of all onlookers to be petrified.
The leopard was confused. What was up with the stone?
Howl!
Howl!
The forest became noisy. Numerous powerful beasts came. Evidently, they had also sensed this bizarre aura. Their greedy gazes were fixed on the stone.
The leopard howled as it stood by the lake. It knew that this would be a bitter battle. "Howl—"
"Howl—"
Accompanied by a loud howl, the battle began. At this time, in the Land of Legacy, Duma was looking at Chen Feng in panic as well. Evidently, he had no idea what had happened to this kid to give him such peculiar feeling.
Chen Feng looked at him and said with a laugh, "Thanks."
"What?" Duma was somewhat dumbstruck. What was there to thank him for? Chen Feng was actually saying thanks to him?
"Thank you for allowing me to sense this familiar power… I don't know how long this will last. However…" Chen Feng smiled. Since he had entered the awakened realm, his improvement had mainly been on understanding and comprehension. Even his attacks and deductions had all been related to Xiao Ying and Spirit. Not a single one of his improvements had been related to his body. Therefore, although the time had been reversed, so long as he was still in the awakened realm, the effect on him wasn't much, almost nonexistent. However, there was one single point Chen Feng could not let go.
"Did you not feel anything?" Chen Feng asked with a toying smile.
"?!" Duma's hair stood on end.
Pu!
Suddenly, he spurted out a mouthful of blood. What happened? Duma looked at Chen Feng in horror. He had no idea what was happening. This power…
He cast his senses through his body and noticed with horror that the origin of this power was in fact himself. This was the backlash from the time reversal he had used. He had actually suffered from the backlash of reversing time!
Duma was alarmed. How was this possible? One ought to know that this would only happen when he was trying to use his time reversal on someone much stronger than him. Yet he had only used it on a mere human, the weak Chen Feng, who was a brand new awakened.
"This is impossible!" Duma howled. And next…
Pu!
He spurted out another mouthful of blood. His energy was still being exhausted without stop as he suffered backlash from his time reversal.
"You…" His eyes widened, and he looked at Chen Feng with an incredulous expression.
"Are you feeling comfortable?" Chen Feng smiled faintly. "You had touched upon something you shouldn't have…"
Shua!
Chen Feng stepped out. Everything around him started operating according to his will. Chen Feng could even maintain this time reversal, not allowing it to disappear. He did not know why this was happening; however, so long as he could continue this, it would be fine.
"Spirit, maintain the time reversal at this exact moment. Don't continue reversing, and don't cancel the reverse."
"All right."
"Spirit, render all of Duma's attacks ineffective."
"All right."
"Spirit, start going all out researching and analyzing Duma's power."
"All right."
"Spirit, assist Xiao Ying in looking for the source of the pink energy. I need the coordinates as soon as possible."
"All right."
…
Chen Feng gave commands without stop, and Spirit acted accordingly.
Shua! Shua!
Chen Feng was slowly gaining the advantage, while opposite him, Duma was still in a daze. Why had this happened suddenly?
Patter! Patter!
Time passed.
"This…"
The little turtle's head popped out, and he took a glance with horror before withdrawing his head back into his shell noiselessly. This power… he could sense an ominous aura.
"I refuse to believe this." Duma wiped his blood and unleashed an attack once again. Unfortunately, all his attacks had become ineffective now. For numerous absurd reasons, all his attacks failed to kill Chen Feng. This weakling Chen Feng had suddenly become so mysterious.
"What power…" Duma said, gazing at Chen Feng with an incredulous expression, "…are you using, exactly?"
"No power." Chen Feng smiled. "You are the one who activated this for me. To speak the truth, it has been a long time since I last felt this power. What a familiar feeling."
Shua!
Chen Feng opened both his arms wide. The breeze brushed past him, feeling incredibly comfortable.
Luck Aura: Full activation!
That's right. Luck Aura. This Luck Aura, which had been temporarily deactivated due to the upgrade, had been forcefully reversed by Duma, returned to its state prior to the deactivation. At present, Luck Aura was fully activated.
At this instant, Chen Feng had entered a brand new realm. Luck Aura was an extremely odd thing. This Luck Aura, which was supposed to be updating had been forced to stop its update. Even so, it still gave Chen Feng a mysterious feeling. Luck Aura seemed to be different now?
This instant, Chen Feng felt like he was incomparably powerful. This instant, he felt like he was omnipotent. This instant, Chen Feng could feel that far away, beyond the horizon, something seemed to be resonating with him. As his thoughts willed, that thing would respond to him. It was an incredibly wondrous feeling.

Chapter 636: Ultimate Trump Card of the Scarab Race
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
This… is this a semi-upgraded Luck Aura? Chen Feng was overjoyed. He did not know how long would he be in this state. Perhaps this state would be gone the moment Duma's time reversal stopped. As such, he had to make use of this state to its fullest extent. With Luck Aura, he could assist in deducing his very own awakened power. With Luck Aura, he could search for the source of the pink energy.
Shua! Shua!
Spirit deduced at a rapid speed. Time abilities, studying awakened power, coordinating of the source… Everything advanced in an orderly fashion. The moment this Luck Aura was activated, the moment Chen Feng entered this state where he had bottomless luck value to use, he was unequaled. The entire world revolved around him! This was the prowess of Luck Aura!
A smile appeared on Chen Feng's face. "In my world of luck, nobody can defeat me."
Shua!
He lifted his hand calmly.
Pu!
Suddenly, Duma started coughing blood. "Damn it." He looked at Chen Feng in alarm. What in the world had happened to this fellow? He could feel that Chen Feng was presently in a mysterious and unique state. Chen Feng's present momentum was so mighty that he seemed unequaled. Too powerful, so powerful it was petrifying. What was going on with this human? Duma had no answer to that. The only thing he could do was increase the speed of the time reversal. Regardless of what power Chen Feng was using, so long as he dropped from his awakened realm, all his power would be gone.
This was what Duma believed. Well, in any case, this was his line of thought after a certain wondrous power "guided" his line of thought. And next…
Bang! Bang!
As this continued on, he finally found out that this damnable Chen Feng was still an awakened. Moreover, it seemed impossible for his realm to drop.
Could it be…
Suddenly, Duma understood something.
Shua!
He stopped the time reversal. At that instant, everything returned to normal. Even Chen Feng's younger appearance returned to his present age, like everything that had appeared earlier had just been an illusion.
And along with that, the unequaled and mysterious aura around Chen Feng vanished.
"I see…" Finally, Duma understood. After dropping from the awakened realm, Chen Feng would actually enter such a state. As time reversed, Chen Feng would actually become stronger! Duma had finally understood everything. All his previous assumptions had been wrong. So long as he stopped using his time reversal, this Chen Feng would remain a weakling. Perhaps Chen Feng had once possessed some formidable power in the past that he could no longer use for some reason.
So that was the case!
Finally, Duma understood clearly. Despite his heavy injuries, he smiled. Opposite him, a somewhat regretful expression appeared on Chen Feng's face. What a pity. He had already used Luck Aura the best he could to search for that source, yet his luck value had, after all, still been limited. The absolutely unrestrained manner in which he had used his Luck Aura earlier had been something that couldn't have lasted long. His opponent, Duma, wasn't an idiot, after all. The moment his luck value was fully exhausted, Duma had understood the truth. Duma was still Duma, even if he only had access to a small portion of his strength. He was still an illustrious awakened.
Is it over? Chen Feng took a deep breath and looked inwardly. Indeed, not only was his luck value exhausted, but his Luck Aura had once again been deactivated. But then, so what? Suddenly, Chen Feng smiled.
"You can still smile?" Duma sneered. Even without his time reversal, he still had countless means at his disposal to eliminate this weakling.
"Naturally." Chen Feng shrugged and smiled. "Because I have seen through your power."
"Mhm?" Duma blanked before sneering. "Naive."
Shua!
Once again, he searched his memory for a powerful time ability and unleashed it. Next…
Chen Feng pointed. "Disintegrate!"
His Star Disintegration Finger was activated, and Duma's activity was forcefully crushed.
"How is this possible?" Duma cried out in alarm.
"Hehe." Chen Feng smiled calmly. With Luck Aura, nothing was impossible. Even though Luck Aura was no longer active, earlier, his Luck Aura had been like a cheat for Spirit. She had been able to complete all the deductions. Now, Chen Feng's Star Disintegration Finger was nearly perfect. All advanced spatial and chronal abilities were now ineffective against Chen Feng. Apart from some super trump cards, they wouldn't work against him at all.
Chen Feng pointed.
Disintegrate!
Yet another one of Duma's time abilities was disintegrated.
"I told you. Your abilities are now ineffective," Chen Feng stated faintly. "If you can't unleash the powerful technical abilities unique to Duma himself, you will not be able to harm me."
The Duma before him was essentially a "semicompleted product".
"So that's the case." Duma sneered. Finally, he understood his current predicament. If so…
Bang!
Once again, he moved. This time, his attack target wasn't Chen Feng. Instead, it was the ground.
Shua! Shua!
A huge time cage exuding a faint undulation appeared. Everyone near the time cage would be warped by time itself, feeling like death itself would be an escape to this suffering. This power locked the entirety of the Land of Legacy down. However, from this attack that did not seem like an attack, Chen Feng could not feel any killing intent.
Oh?
Chen Feng raised his eyebrow, not understanding what this fellow was trying to do.
Duma spoke calmly. "This is not a killing move. This is, in fact, a defensive ability, an ability that will defend the both of us."
Chen Feng did not understand.
Duma appeared calm. "From now on, I reckon we both will have to coexist peacefully."
Chen Feng was still confused. What was this? Peaceful coexistence? What? Had this guy recovered his consciousness? Chen Feng looked at Qin Hai. Qin Hai merely shook his head. Evidently, this pink turtle was still under the control of the pink. If so, what did he mean, then?
"You don't understand?" Duma shook his head. "This is the ultimate trump card of us scarabs. Although I can't use much of the real power of this body, this particular ability does not have any limitations."
Finally, Chen Feng's expression became solemn. "Oh?"
Trump card, huh? This ability…
He had never expected that a day would come when he would need his opponent to explain a trump card to him. But then, it seemed like Duma was very happy to provide this explanation? After all, he was seeking peaceful coexistence, right? Chen Feng wanted to know what this so-called peaceful coexistence trump card was all about.
"Do you still not understand?" Duma's expression was calm as he said, "The flow of time in here is somewhat different than the outside world. Naturally, the speed is in fact still normal. Since we are all together in here, maintaining this does not exhaust much energy on my part. The reason for the low exhaustion is because this is an ability with only a single function: trapping us all in here, trapping us here eternally. Here, time is boundless. Let us see who can live longer!"
Finally, Chen Feng understood. What the hell? No wonder this turtle wasn't anxious at all. His so-called trump card was actually outliving his opponents? What in the world? The scarab race was shameless! Competing in longevity after failing to defeat an opponent? This was too excessive! This method of operation…

Chapter 637: Origin Power
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
At center of the Land of Legacy, the chronal undulation swirled around. Chen Feng tried approaching the edge of the cage. He even tried attacking the cage, but it felt like all the power he put in his attack vanished amid the river of time. This was the scarab race's trump card, a trump card where everything about the enemy, including the enemy's strength, would be meaningless. So long as one was not immune to time effects, one would be trapped forever. In the history of the scarab race, during the olden days, it had been said that they had once outlived a powerful god with this move. This was also the reason the scarab race had been feared by all.
"It's over." The head of the little turtle popped out of his shell, despair evident in his widened eyes. He was extremely clear on the history of the scarab race. There was only one result that awaited all trapped by this cage.
"Numerous years will also pass in the outside world as well?" Chen Feng asked with a frown.
"Nope." The little turtle was so horrified that his head became green. "When the trapped person dies, his life will be taken as the sacrifice to revert time. When the trapper returns to the outside world, only several hours or several days will have passed…"
Chen Feng was shocked. "This works?" Worthy of being the scarab race feared by all.
"Bro, can you stop being shocked?" The little turtle cried a tearless cry and continued, "You are not from the Shock Department, right? Why in the world are you being shocked all the time? Why not think of a solution? I don't want to be trapped here…"
Chen Feng gave the little turtle a glance. "Aren't you the spirit turtle? I doubt you will die…"
"I won't die, but I will be bored." The little turtle was going crazy. "For people in the outside world, only several hours will have passed, yet for the trapped, several tens of thousands of years will have passed. No female turtles, no anime, nothing! I can only count the patterns on my turtle shell to pass time every single day. This is not the life I want!"
The little turtle was going crazy.
"Ah." Chen Feng was speechless. Indeed, such a life wasn't something anyone could endure. This was no longer a problem of one's life span. Before one's life ended, one would probably first be tormented to insanity by boredom itself.
"Theory…" Chen Feng started thinking. He now knew about the scarab race's trump card. How about the theory behind it?
Duma did not seem worried that Chen Feng would break out of this cage. After all, if that was possible, it would have already been done back during the era long gone. It had been proven that this cage could not be broken.
"There's no theory." The little turtle appeared dispirited. "This is purely the exhaustion of one's time. In fact, the time in here flows much faster than in the outside world even though you can't feel it. Moreover, even your appearance won't change—you won't get older. Only when enough time has passed for one's life span to end will this ability end, taking the life span of that person as the sacrifice. The person whose life span has ended will vanish into nothing," the little turtle said with a painful expression.
"What if I kill Duma, then?" Chen Feng asked suddenly.
The little turtle shook his head. "It's pointless. The moment this cage is activated, only the exhaustion of one's life span is real. Everything else is illusory."
Chen Feng finally understood. "So that's the case."
Exhaustion of time…
Chen Feng was maintaining a calm expression, but he had the urge to laugh out loud. The accumulation of luck value required time, as did Luck Aura's upgrade. Wasn't this act of Duma's an act of giving him the ultimate chance?
Interesting…
Chen Feng laughed toyingly. In that case, he would wait. As he thought of this, he ignored them all and selected a corner to quietly sit down in. He sat cross-legged, waiting for his Luck Aura to finish its upgrade.
"This guy…" A question mark appeared in Duma's brain, yet he continued waiting patiently. He was sure that Chen Feng would not give up just like that. As such, he wanted to see clearly what this guy was planning.
Time passed quietly.
Due to the unique power of time, they had no idea how much time had passed. However, Chen Feng could sense that at the very least, one month had passed. Or perhaps even more. Therefore…
He cast his senses inward and was alarmed to see that Luck Aura was still upgrading.
Chen Feng frowned. Odd. It had been an entire month. He could feel the accumulation of luck value. However, shouldn't the upgrade have been completed by now? Perhaps it would be completed soon?
He shut his eyes and rested once again.
Next… several months passed. After checking again, he noted that Luck Aura was still upgrading.
"!!!" His eyes gleamed. There had to be a problem somewhere! The upgrade was taking way too long! From the moment when Chen Feng had first returned to this planet until now, including the time passed in the cage, several months had passed. The upgrade should have already been completed. Alas, it had yet to complete.
Chen Feng was aware that Luck Aura was a unique existence. Chen Feng could even accept it if this Luck Aura was immune to time. However, previously, it had been clearly proven that the power of time could restore Luck Aura to its earlier state…
If so… what was the problem now? This was the very first time he had started viewing this issue gravely. He could feel that something extraordinary must have happened to Luck Aura, causing it to fail to upgrade.
Chen Feng scratched his head. "Has the connection been severed?" He recalled how in his previous life, when software had failed to update, it could be due to a severed connection. Back then, during that single instant when Luck Aura had been reactivated, he had clearly sensed something. That powerful thing had been trembling. Perhaps there had been a system error of some sort due to Luck Aura being forcefully activated earlier?
Chen Feng tried searching for the reason, yet this mysterious thing was, after all, different from a computer. With Chen Feng's strength, it was impossible for him to troubleshoot it. What is happening to Luck Aura? Chen Feng questioned inwardly.
Suddenly, Duma spoke. "Seems like you have failed." He had been paying attention to Chen Feng's expression. From the initial indifference to joy to downcast and doubtful, which had just appeared a short while ago, it seemed like Chen Feng had failed at whatever he had been attempting. Chen Feng merely raised his head calmly and gave Duma a single glance.
Duma sneered. "Still not giving up?" Nobody could hope to survive this cage. As such, his opponents mostly tried to stop him when he tried activating this ability, as they understood this ability way too much, knowing the precise weakness of this ability.
As for Chen Feng, he knew nothing. Moreover, due to the short life span of humans, he would even die before long.
Chen Feng wasn't surprised. "Mhm." Half a year had passed since they'd been trapped in here. After a short while, yet another year would pass. Time truly worked in a bizarre fashion here in this cage. If this continued, he would truly die.
But then… it shouldn't be long before it's done, right? Chen Feng muttered to himself, seemingly waiting for something.
Duma sneered inwardly. "Still not giving up?"
Fine, let's see how long you can last before you succumb to insanity.
But then, due to the short life span of humans, he probably wouldn't even last long enough to be driven insane. Perhaps Chen Feng will exhaust his life span before that, Duma speculated inwardly.
Right at this instant, a formidable power erupted suddenly.
Bang!
Duma's expression changed abruptly. What is it?
Finally, Chen Feng's gaze intensified. "Here it comes…"
Bang! Bang!
The ground started collapsing. From a certain corner of this unique cage, a formidable pink power started surging out wantonly, directly collapsing this world.
"How is that possible?" Duma cried out in alarm.
Bang! Bang!
The pink destroyed the world, and Duma and Chen Feng were forcefully returned to the real world. There, in a certain corner of the Land of Legacy, the pink energy was surging out like a fountain. This was the very thing that had destroyed Duma's cage.
"That is…" Duma's body trembled. He couldn't believe what he had seen.
Chen Feng's mouth curled up, forming a smile. "Looks like… the source of your power has been found…"
Bang!
The entire world seemed to tremble. The pink power erupted and Duma's expression sank.
Swish! Swish!
Xiao Ying appeared and attacked the pink origin without stop.
Duma's expression changed. "Damn it!" The pink origin was the core of all the pink energy. The moment it suffered damage, the integration with Duma's original consciousness would suffer as well. Cracks appeared among the consciousness and pink that had been fully integrated earlier.
Pu!
Duma coughed out a mouthful of blood and nearly collapsed to the ground.
"You dare?" he howled, and he stood up, clenching his teeth.
Alas, after taking only a few steps forward, he collapsed powerlessly. All the pink around his body faded slowly, becoming white. Ultimately, he transformed back into that plain old man.
"Master." Qin Hai rushed over."Unconscious due to energy exhaustion…" Qin Hai said after taking a look at his master. Only energy exhaustion would free one from the pink's control. This did not surprise them, as it should be the same even for Duma.
Bang! Bang!
The pink fountain was still surging out. Xiao Ying had already returned to Chen Feng noiselessly. The origin had been found. If so… it was time to find out the truth behind all this! The true identity of the pink origin, the one who had controlled Duma, should appear soon, right?
Hum—
From the pink fog, a light wave spread out. The pink origin had appeared.

Chapter 638: The True Culprit
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Amid the starry sky.
Hum—
A shockwave flashed past.
Bang!
A battleship exploded loudly. Along with the intense tremors, it transformed into numerous particles before vanishing. At this time, in outer space, the countless battleships of the rich that had once orbited the planet had all vanished. Amid the starry sky, only a single battleship remained. One could also say that only an eternal throne remained here. On the throne, a person was seated. A pair of indifferent eyes were gazing upon the planet where humans lived.
Shua!
With a casual wave of his hand, numerous phantoms surged out. From the throne, numerous wondrous and mysterious rays of light shot out. In the starry sky, these rays of light converged before slowly assuming the shapes of numerous battleships, like they had never been destroyed in the first place, as if nothing had ever happened in this part of the space, as flourishing as ever.
The night seemed deeper.
…
On a certain faraway world, a group of people was working busily. The one leading had a pair of horns on his head. Evidently, this was the Twin Horns World, a world Chen Feng was familiar with.
"How's the progress on the trail?" an elderly voice asked.
"We can't follow it."
"After Chen Feng left, all traces vanished," that person reported in shame.
An angry rebuke resounded. "Trash! Didn't we let him go on purpose just to discover the planet he originated from? You guys actually failed to tail after him? What's the point of keeping you guys around, then?"
From the furious rebuttal, an alarming piece of information was revealed. Chen Feng had actually been released deliberately by them. This was understandable, though. Compared to this mysterious and powerful Twin Horns World, Chen Feng was too weak. If they hadn't intended his escape in the first place, it would have been impossible for Chen Feng to escape.
"Chen Feng used an irregular method to leave." The person was prostrated on the ground and shuddered as he spoke. "We tailed after the traces when he left. However, we noticed that the trail led us to a chaotic space where logic did not apply. There are no spatial tunnels there. All the people we sent have died there."
Shua!
The old man sunk into silence.
After a long time, his voice, filled with killing intent, resounded, "In short, you are telling me that Chen Feng entered a sure-death location and hasn't returned to his planet at all?"
"I…"
The questioned person did not know how to answer this question. They had originally believed that Chen Feng had returned to his own world. After all, Chen Feng was the only person they had ever seen who was capable of transmigrating independently. As such, they had deliberately allowed his escape. Alas… they had never expected that this would be the result.
Chen Feng's transmigration wasn't a return to his home world as they had expected. Rather, he had crashed into the spatial currents, a location of sure death. And next… there was no next. Chen Feng was gone. They had no idea if he was still alive. The trail had been severed, rendering them incapable of tailing him.
Was this some unique method of operation by Chen Feng? The old man muttered to himself for a short period of time before ultimately saying, "Since this is in past, forget about it. Now, I want you guys to focus on the trails left by Chen Feng and tell me how long will be required before we can enter that world."
The person that was prostrating on the ground said, "…That is impossible."
The old man's voice became sharp as he asked, "Why?"
The person spoke in a daze. "The departure of Chen Feng and Kong Bai severed all sources of information. We will forever be unable to reach Chen Feng's world."
Bang!
The aura of the old man engulfed the entire world in his anger, causing countless people to tremble in fear. As for the person that was prostrated before the old man, he was sweating profusely, yet he truly had no other choice. Sometimes, no meant no.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah—" The old man was furious. "Will we be trapped here forever? Do we truly have no hope?"
His overcast cry resounded. There were no replies. This unique world, this Twin Horns World, still operated by the mode set by him.
…
At the center of the Land of Legacy, Chen Feng's group had just finished dealing with Duma. When Xiao Ying had attacked the pink energy, they had finally been able to see the person behind the scenes, their true enemy.
Alas… beyond their wildest imaginations, this enemy was actually…
Qin Hai's expression changed greatly. "Why is it you?"
Shua!
A powerful shockwave spread out. In the sky, a boundless radiance started converging together.
Shua!
Light swirled around. A scene in the Land of Legacy appeared. Here, the Land of Legacy had seemingly returned to its initial state where everything was still normal. At that time, Duma had just ended his seclusion. In the scene, Duma's expression did not seem too calm. He seemed to have found out about something. After picking up some stuff, he entered seclusion once again.
"Those things…" The little turtle was shocked. He was the only one who knew the functions of these things. Each time he had been revived by the old man after being eaten, it had been using these things.
This is… time restoration!
Bang!
Duma destroyed the timeline forcefully. From amid the myriad timelines, he restored time and ultimately rescued a certain person from the river of time. The person rescued was the woman that had been killed by Chen Feng previously, Qin Hai's senior apprentice sister, the pink diamond who had been rumored to be capable of controlling all life-forms. This was Duma's strongest ability: resurrection!
Qin Hai took in a deep breath. "Master actually resurrected senior sister."
"This fellow…" The little turtle was similarly horrified. He was, in fact, a spirit body; hence, resurrecting him wasn't too big of a deal, as it was not in violation of any laws. Yet resurrecting that woman… Duma would have to exhaust a huge amount of his power. Indeed, after the resurrection, Duma's strength declined greatly. As for the one resurrected by him, the senior apprentice sister that had returned, she had changed somewhat.
And next, something scary happened. The pink energy engulfed the world. This pink-diamond senior sister with the ability to charm the world had evolved. From controlling beasts, she had evolved and become the controller of everything. Ultimately, the entirety of the Land of Legacy had fallen under her control.
Shua!
Light swirled around. The pink and light that filled the sky vanished without a trace.
They raised their heads and gazed over. From the depths of the pink Land of Legacy, a figure they were all familiar with was slowly walking out. On her forehead, the pink diamond shone dazzlingly. Her seductive figure swayed about and her rich chest bounced about. The one that had been pulling the strings behind the scene was precisely Qin Hai's senior apprentice sister.
Qin Hai sighed. "Senior sister…" Prior to this, who would have guessed that the one hidden behind the scenes was his senior apprentice sister? But then, it was understandable. Only his senior apprentice sister's charming ability would be able to affect everyone here.
The senior apprentice sister spoke with a smile. "Long time no see, my junior brother."
"Why?" Qin Hai could not understand her reason for doing this.
"Because you all deserve death." The senior apprentice sister's expression became cold. "I sent my distress signal, and someone obviously received it, yet nobody came. I waited until the final moment before I was killed by that little girl. Nobody came… You all deserve death!"
Qin Hai sank into silence. The one to receive the distress signal back then had been him. At that time, his senior apprentice sister had been controlling the devils to attack Star City. Chen Feng had been defending there, and Wang Yao had been in charge of assassinating this senior apprentice sister. The only thing he had been able to do to help was to sever all of his senior apprentice sister's reinforcements, as he was ultimately still a human.
"How about Master?" Qin Hai focused his gaze on her. "Master treated you like his own daughter. He even resurrected you! Is this how you repay his kindness?"
"Kindness?" The senior apprentice sister started laughing wildly. "Whatever kindness it was, it is still no match for you, right? That old bastard obviously saw through your real identity long ago. He obviously saw through the fact that you are human long ago… Hehehehe." Senior apprentice sister's voice became sharp. "Yet he decided to conceal everything, causing my death!"
Qin Hai's heart thumped wildly.
Saw through…
Identity…
It seemed like he had been seen through by his master long ago? That was understandable. He was one who had traveled through time several millenniums into the past. There were some things his fellow apprentice brothers and sisters couldn't remember, but it was impossible for his master to not remember it. He had ultimately underestimated Duma. But then, his master had actually chosen not to expose him! Why?
"Because he has grown old. He has already lost the burning spirit he once had when he was younger. He wished to stay out of everything, including his disciples. He claimed that if he employed his power of time excessively, he would suffer retribution. Therefore, I became curious if he can still use the power of time. Indeed, he once again employed his power of time to resurrect me. And next, he indeed suffered retribution. He had believed that that would be sufficient to pay me for the betrayal I suffered…
"How is that possible? I hate you, I hate Chen Feng, I hate all of you! None of you will ever know how scary that little girl Wang Yao is. None of you will ever understand what it feels like when your heart is stabbed by her. That feeling… is no different than being in hell!
"That little girl has a scary power capable of delivering one the utmost suffering. I dithered between life and death. I sought survival amid the primal chaos and couldn't die for real even when I wanted to… You all will never be able to imagine what I experienced after my death!"
The senior apprentice sister's furious voice had a trace of fear mixed in when she talked about her experience. Chen Feng and Qin Hai exchanged glances and were both shocked. Utmost suffering…seeking survival, couldn't die for real even when she wanted to… Was this the fate of all killed by Wang Yao?
Moreover, Chen Feng could keenly feel that despite the intense hatred this senior apprentice sister was feeling, not an ounce of the hatred was directed against Wang Yao. Why was that? She was afraid… even Chen Feng could hear her fear toward Wang Yao. Was this a shadow left in her heart after being killed by Wang Yao?
Or was it because…
Bang!
The terrifying pink energy surged sharply. Finally, the senior apprentice sister erupted with her powerful might.
"I will kill all of you!"
Her killing intent surged.

Chapter 639: Destroying the World
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Qin Hai," Chen Feng shouted.
"Understood." Qin Hai nodded before retreating with Duma.
"Thinking of leaving?" The senior apprentice sister blasted forth with a pink radiance from her hand.
Bang!
The pink radiance abruptly exploded in midair. The senior apprentice sister stopped her attack and regarded this young man that was blocking her. This was the very person that had foiled all of her plans today as well.
"Chen Feng…" the senior apprentice sister muttered. Awakened… human! Very well. Perhaps this might be the most optimal puppet for her.
Hum—
The pink energy spread out.
"Your strength…"
A trace of fear flashed through Qin Hai's eyes. He was very clear on the strength of this senior apprentice sister. Although she was very powerful, she was still a beyond A class and was not as wise as Duma. No, this strength she was showing did not seem right!
Hum—
The pink energy emanated out. Qin Hai's pupils shrunk as he felt a terrifying undulation.
"Chen Feng, careful! There are some issues with her strength!" said Qin Hai.
Shua!
Light swirled around. The pink swept forth, targeting Chen Feng.
Her dream-like voice resounded as the faint pink energy surrounded Chen Feng. "Hehe. Human… fall obediently! Since those pieces of trash have failed to contain you, let me control you instead."
Swish!
Chen Feng had an ominous feeling and retreated quickly. Alas, the pink energy surged out in great amount abruptly and erupted all over Chen Feng before vanishing once again.
"Gone?"
Chen Feng knitted his brows tightly. Something was wrong with this senior apprentice sister here. Even Duma had fallen under her control after a moment of carelessness. He had to guard against her.
Shua!
Chen Feng activated his defense.
"Spirit, pay more attention for me."
"Understood."
"Xiao Ying, search for the energy that went missing."
Swish!
Chen Feng's gaze was sharp as he looked around cautiously. However, before both Spirit and Xiao Ying returned with his asked-for results, he was assaulted by intense drowsiness.
"Not good," he muttered.
Disintegrate! Disintegrate! Disintegrate!
He attacked three times in a row. The powerful awakened power was pointed at the empty air around him, yet the intense drowsiness wasn't affected at all. Chen Feng was getting more and more drowsy.
His expression sank. It's over.
The pink energy had dissipated amid the air and seemed to be everywhere. The lack of trajectory and form made it impossible for Chen Feng to attack. This time, he was truly in danger.
Shua!
His eyes darkened. Chen Feng was completely falling.
Qin Hai was anxious. "Chen Feng!" He tried rushing over to rescue Chen Feng but was immediately blasted away by his senior apprentice sister.
"My adorable junior brother. Hehe. Just you wait. I will watch on with my own eyes as he kills you." The senior apprentice sister's voice was filled with malice. Her eyes were filled with hatred, and there was a twisted expression on her face.
Ka!
A crisp sound echoed. Qin Hai looked over immediately and found that Chen Feng's fingernails had turned pink. He was on the verge of falling under the enemy's control.
Qin Hai's heart sank. "Chen Feng…" He had never expected that even with Chen Feng's present strength, Chen Feng would still not be a match for his senior apprentice sister, to the point that Chen Feng couldn't even survive a single attack. His senior apprentice sister was presently so powerful that one couldn't even begin to imagine the extent of her prowess.
"What happened to you exactly?" Qin Hai did not dare to believe this. A single death and resurrection and she was already this strong? It was impossible!
Senior apprentice sister merely laughed but did not reply. Her indifferent gaze landed on Chen Feng. She wanted to see all of Chen Feng turn pink, falling completely under her control, before killing each other with Qin Hai. Mhm… She had been looking forward to this for a long time.
"Damn it!" Qin Hai was aware that he had no other options left.
Leave!
He would return after his master had recovered. This was what Qin Hai thought. Alas, just as he started retreating, a flash of light streaked past his back and a pink barrier appeared to obstruct his escape route.
"It's useless, my adorable junior brother. From the moment you both entered, I had already prepared everything… Hehe. This is the graveyard I prepared for you two," the senior apprentice sister said with a sinister expression.
Shua!
The body hairs on Chen Feng's arm had turned pink.
In these short few seconds, both his hands had completely fallen. Both his hands were shrouded in pink now. Chen Feng was starting to fall, and nobody seemed capable of stopping this. Charming was a unique ability capable of ignoring one's strength and penetrating the depths of one's heart to fully control a person. Currently, the fallen Chen Feng's consciousness and thinking were blurry, and his memories were becoming unclear. In the world of the charm his consciousness was in, he led his own life independently.
"Soon…" The senior apprentice sister fixed her gaze on Chen Feng. This was merely the start. As the charm deepened, Chen Feng's inner thoughts would be exposed without stop. His past memories would also appear without stop. She would make use of all those before improving her control over Chen Feng. This was the reason why those who had fallen under her control had never been able to throw her control off.
She monitored Chen Feng's consciousness, trying to lure him over. Her world of charm was akin to a cage. The moment Chen Feng's consciousness fell entirely and was entirely imprisoned in the cage would also be the moment he fell under her complete control. In the world of her charm, even Duma couldn't escape. This world belonged to her.
Come…
Come…
Her consciousness transmitted this message to Chen Feng's mind without stop. Chen Feng's mind wavered on the verge of being completely under her control.
Soon. The senior apprentice sister was overjoyed. However, she failed to notice that within Chen Feng's consciousness, a petite and beautiful figure was watching everything and sighing, seemingly waiting for something.
Her soft voice drifted through the air. "This fellow… is acting more and more wantonly…"
At present, the senior apprentice sister, who was immersed in her plans to devour Chen Feng's memories to obtain full control over him, suddenly discovered that among Chen Feng's memories, an extremely clear figure had appeared. That petite figure… that red clothing… those huge lively eyes… and that boundless killing intent!
Senior apprentice sister shivered and was instantly scared awake. "It's you!"
Wang Yao!
She had actually seen that damnable young girl in Chen Feng's memories.
However, senior apprentice sister wasn't an ordinary person. She only required a short instant to realize that this must be Chen Feng's final counter. This guy had ultimately built a mental defense against her. However…
Her expression became sinister. "Is such a defense sufficient?" With force, she tried snatching Chen Feng's consciousness into her own consciousness.
Shua!
She waved her hand. The formidable power of charm bloomed. A certain figure was tossed into the cage.
Senior apprentice sister sneered. "Success!" However, when she looked over, she was dumbstruck as she found that the thing that had been charmed over wasn't Chen Feng's consciousness. Rather, it was an odd thing. It seemed like a tiny red snake with a peculiar appearance. At present, this snake's eyes appeared to be lifeless, and the snake's body was waving around without stop. Occasionally, the snake would grow limp, and occasionally, it would harden. At times, it would thrust back and forth. Mhm…
Senior apprentice sister was dumbstruck.
No, this isn't right…
She had obviously charmed Chen Feng. How could she have gotten the wrong consciousness? Just as she was in doubt...
Bang!
The world of charm collapsed, and Chen Feng, who she had believed was already under her control, opened his eyes, killing intent flashing through them. With a single step, he stepped into the world of charm. He wasn't pulled into the cage by her. Rather, he made his way in by himself.
The senior apprentice sister was alarmed and angered at the same time. "You dare?" She had never imagined that Chen Feng was actually so clear headed and was still capable of making a move against her. How was this possible?
Chen Feng sneered. "Ah."
Bang!
With a punch, he broke the world of charm.
Bang!
It collapsed.
Chen Feng's sharp gaze swept past the fragments of this collapsed world. This was the world created by the pink energy, the world of charm created with utmost care by this senior apprentice sister, which could be used to control others. In addition to Chen Feng, her own consciousness and numerous memory fragments were contained in this world as well.
Bang!
Chen Feng punched out without stop and watched on as this world withered. From the countless memory fragments, he found the fragment unique to this senior apprentice sister. Next, from that fragment, he searched for the secret behind her increase in strength.

Chapter 640: Primordial Power
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Ah. It was over. Chen Feng's mouth curled up, forming a smile. His consciousness and Xiao Ying's were connected in the first place. Therefore, all the charm and spiritual attacks launched by senior apprentice sister had all been transferred over to Xiao Ying. This was also the reason for Xiao Ying's bizarre actions…
Bang!
Chen Feng acted and destroyed everything.
The senior apprentice sister's mournful scream reverberated through the air. "No!" She stared on blankly as her world of charm collapsed and her body received heavy injuries instantly. She had never imagined that even after her rebirth, she would have to suffer this. This was not supposed to be possible. She was the strongest existence. Even her master had fallen under her control. How could she suffer at the hands of a mere human?
No! Impossible! She went crazy.
Chen Feng sneered and ignored her. "Ah." He focused on the memory fragments and looked for the real source of her strength. There had to be a reason for her abrupt increase in strength. Chen Feng's sharp gaze swept past the memory fragments before stopping on a certain fragment. It was a pink fragment, yet the pink on this particular fragment was deeper and had a slight glossy tint to it. Even amid the sea of countless pink fragments, it appeared unordinary.
"Related to this?" Chen Feng instinctively reached out to grab it. Astonishingly, just as his hand was about to land on that fragment, the fragment streaked away and instantly vanished over the horizon. The speed it had moved at was petrifying.
"This thing…" Chen Feng was shocked. It actually had an independent consciousness?
"A primordial power could be felt," the little turtle said as his head popped out of his shell behind Chen Feng.
Chen Feng: "…"
He looked at the vanishing ray of light with his brows knitted together tightly. Primordial power? Why had this power appeared here? Why had it appeared in the body of Qin Hai's senior apprentice sister? Chen Feng sank into contemplation.
The sharp voice of the senior apprentice sister resounded. "Chen Feng!" She was already heavily injured and hadn't noticed the departure of that pink energy at all. She was trying to regain control of the situation. A mere human…
She reasoned that since Chen Feng had personally left his sea of consciousness and had separated from that tiny snake, her charm would most certainly work on him now.
Shua!
Once again, the power of charm bloomed.
Chen Feng snorted. "Ridiculous." With a light jab of his finger, all of her power disintegrated. Indeed, after losing the support of that wondrous energy, the present senior apprentice sister had returned to how she had been before, a peak beyond A class. She was still extremely formidable, but against Chen Feng…
Shua!
With a random wave of Chen Feng's hand, she was blasted away.
Bang!
Blood splattered about.
Chen Feng sighed. "It's finally over."
Hum—
A faint radiance swept out. The earth trembled and the pink energy receded. Slowly, the world returned to normal. All the pink started to vanish. The center of the Land of Legacy returned to normal.
Chen Feng gazed upon the sky. "The sky is clear now."
The sky, which had been enveloped in pink for a long time, was once again blue and sunny.
Qin Hai sighed. "Yeah." They hadn't been in this Land of Legacy for long, yet what they had experienced made it feel like several years had passed. The numerous unimaginable abilities that they'd had to deal with had caused them extreme exhaustion. Fortunately, it had all ended.
Chen Feng noticed some movement. "The Genetic Union is coming." Since the abnormality surrounding the Land of Legacy had vanished, the Genetic Union would most certainly enter shortly.
"I know," Qin Hai said. "I will take them away first. You can come later."
Chen Feng nodded slightly. "Mhm." With Qin Hai's identity, it was indeed rather unsuitable for him to appear before the other humans.
Shua!
Light swirled around. Qin Hai vanished with Duma and the rest. After a short while, the Genetic Union members arrived.
They were all overjoyed to see him. "Chen Feng!"
"Clear up the things here," Chen Feng said with a smile.
"It's good that you are fine." Li Lei was incomparably agitated. Shortly after, he looked around the Land of Legacy. "What in the world happened here, exactly?"
"Some minor problems." Chen Feng gave a rough description.
Li Lei gasped in astonishment. "Pink origin… Primordial power…" He had never expected that in such a short period of time, so many things had happened. He had also never expected that the primordial power was the reason for all of this.
"I will let you handle the rest over here," Chen Feng said. "I still have something I need to do."
"Understood." Li Lei paused and continued, "Remember to be extra careful."
"Mhm." Chen Feng left. Qin Hai was waiting for him at the ancient race's palace. When he arrived, Duma and the rest were already regaining consciousness.
Chen Feng cupped his hands and greeted Duma. "Senior."
He wasn't particularly afraid of this Duma. The present Duma had been greatly weakened and was not as powerful as he had once been. Otherwise, Chen Feng would probably have killed him off earlier when he'd had the chance.
"Many thanks…" Duma said with a complicated expression. At this time, Qin Hai's other fellow apprentice brothers woke up, exchanged glances, and thanked Chen Feng before leaving. Regardless of how much they were against the integration of humans and ancients, as Chen Feng had saved them during this incident at the Land of Legacy, they were no longer qualified to object to the integration.
"Yo, old turtle, you're awake?" The little turtle clicked his tongue in wonder. "How does it feel, for your body to be fully exhausted of energy?"
Duma: "…"
This fellow…
Chen Feng did not know whether to laugh or cry either.
"Senior," Chen Feng said with a solemn expression. "May I ask, what exactly happened?"
Everything that had happened at the Land of Legacy had originated from the mysterious pink energy. However, where had the mysterious energy come from? Why had it appeared? How had it happened? Chen Feng was clueless.
Duma sighed. "Due to my greed. I once saw an item somewhere. From it, I sensed primordial power. As such, I wanted to take it for my own use. Unfortunately, even with my strength, I was unable to approach that item. As such, I unsealed a remnant item of the Primordial Era that I had, trying to fight poison with poison. As a result…"
Duma shook his head. "I received grave injuries, and the energy contained in the remnant item from the Primordial Era escaped."
Chen Feng contemplated. So the pink energy was what escaped?
"I was gravely injured at that time, and that girl was good at controlling others…" Duma laughed bitterly. He had never expected that a day would come when he would fall under the control of one of his disciples. Initially, he had only wanted to use the power of the Primordial Era to obtain that stone that similarly contained the power of the Primordial Era. Unexpectedly, he had still overestimated himself…
"Although I lived through the Primordial Era, at that time, I was a newborn. Otherwise, I wouldn't have escaped the calamity that happened to everyone else. I don't have much understanding of that era… However, that pink energy is definitely not something ordinary. Even back in the Primordial Era, it should have been qualified to be listed in the ranks of the strongest powers. Otherwise, it could not possess such strength. Now that it has escaped…" Duma was deeply worried. "Things will be extremely dangerous."
If it was able to find another person like Qin Hai's senior apprentice sister, it might be able to control the entire world for real.
"My strength will not recover anytime soon. I'm afraid you will have to be the one to deal with this." Duma looked at Chen Feng. "I have seen the rise and fall of countless eras. It has indeed been hard for humans and ancients to reach this level. Hopefully, you will not turn on each other. Naturally, as the price for this peace, you can ask me anything you want to know. I can tell you everything I know about the awakened."
Shua!
Chen Feng's eyes shone.
He knew nothing about the awakened. If Duma could teach him, perhaps he could truly improve and become even stronger.
As for that pink energy… he had never intended to leave it alone anyway. The so-called primordial power gave him an extremely ominous feeling. He could not allow such a mysterious and peculiar power to continue existing.
…
In a certain city, Han Yula returned home after finishing his work for the day.
"Little Tong." [1] 1 He opened the door, filled with expectations. Unfortunately, nobody was found.
Is she out?
His heart chilled. He knew that Little Tong was "playful" in nature and enjoyed "those activities." However, they had already been married for a month, and he was capable of cloning himself now, capable of fulfilling her desires.
"Little Tong?" Han Yula called out several times, and his heart chilled when he received no response. Just as his heart chilled, suddenly, his expression became solemn. With his powerful senses, he discovered something abnormal.
Above their bed, on their wedding picture, two sweetly smiling people could be seen. Different from the past, in this picture, a different color had appeared: pink.
"Little Tong… What happened?"

Chapter 641: Resonance
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Ancient race's palace.
Chen Feng was silently looking at the information shown on the screen. That's right, this was the palace of the ancient race. With the assistance of humans, the ancients had installed the most advanced technological equipment here as well. Naturally, as they were still rather unfamiliar with operating this equipment, half the staffers here were humans.
After this equipment had been installed, the study on the topography of the ancient race's territory, environment, and species had begun. With this, the exploration of the planet had increased rapidly. After one month of study, the results had finally come out. At present, 58% of the planet had been explored. This was a rather astonishing amount. One ought to know that back then, when Chen Feng had first become a Genetic Warrior, only 18% of this planet had been explored. Now, the figure had increased by more than two times. At present, 58% of this planet had been explored, with the remaining 42% still unknown.
However, from the map, they deduced that the remaining 42% could very well be comprised of oceans, a domain humans did not need to reach for the time being.
"If the remaining 42% is truly all ocean, we can use blue to indicate it in the map. With that, the map of the entire planet will be clear. Look, this used to be the devil race's territory." The technician pointed at a huge blank zone. "Although this territory is now abandoned, when we were hunting the devils in the past, this area was reconnoitered as well. There are no dangers there. As for these…" The technician pointed at the red signs on the map. "Some areas have powerful beasts, whereas some are hard to enter due to environmental factors. Due to our limited manpower, we have yet to investigate these areas thoroughly. However, these areas only comprise 1% of the planet and will not affect our overall development. We can just mark them as danger zones on the map for now and leave it alone."
Chen Feng nodded. "Mhm." These special danger zones were not only available in the devil race's territory. In the human territory, there were many such locations as well. An example was the Frozen Sea they had been to previously. Toward the end, they only needed to focus on confirming such locations before marking them with a warning sign.
As for the remaining areas, most of them were the territory of the ancient race. After talking it out with the ancient race, they had cheerfully accepted the convenience offered by the Genetic Union. Communicators were introduced to the ancients, chips were installed, and monitors and numerous detection radars and even numerous other facilities, such as Ironclouds, were directly installed in the depths of the ancient race's territory.
The ancients were extremely happy with the convenience brought by technology. As for the Research Agency, they were incredibly busy these days. As the major figure in the technological industry, Stormtech Company had also set out to become a role model and had gifted the ancients numerous pieces of equipment. With this, the speed at which humans gained understanding of the ancients increased even faster than they had imagined.
It wasn't that the ancients were too stupid. Rather, the facilities the humans offered were truly too convenient. Moreover, at the same time the humans were penetrating deep into the lives of the ancients, the ancients were doing the same to the humans. This was essentially a double-edged sword of sorts.
With the present harmonious relationship between humans and ancients, nobody dared to act recklessly. The appearance of Ironcloud had also increased the speed of their integration. If no mishaps happened, after several decades, the humans and ancients would slowly fully integrate into a single entity.
However, this was on the premise that none of those formidable powers of the Primordial Era were lurking around. Based on what Duma had said, the powers of the Primordial Era would appear occasionally. This was precisely the reason for his seemingly random occasional disappearances all this while, even if these powers might appear rather feeble.
Duma solemnly advised Chen Feng, "The moment one of these powers appears, it must be destroyed. Nobody knows what terrifying thing will be awakened by the appearance of these powers. For example, these powers might awaken something in a similar fashion to the way the devils awoke themselves. Or perhaps… some formidable existence might be awakened."
These years, he had destroyed numerous powers of the Primordial Era that had appeared abruptly. This had continued until that stone had appeared. He hadn't even been able to touch that stone. For him, the pink origin wasn't an issue. What he was worried about the most was that stone.
"As of now, each power that has appeared has been a remnant of that era, a fragment of that era. However, that stone gives me an extremely bizarre feeling, as if it is a complete entity." Duma was extremely anxious.
Mysterious stone…
Duma spoke a lot, yet Chen Feng merely listened on silently.
"What is a primordial power? Primordial power is comprised of all the powers that existed during the Primordial Era. Any power that existed in that era will bear a trace of the aura from that era. They were extremely powerful and dreadful. What's important isn't the might of these powers. Rather, it is the fact that all the aura leftover from that aura will have some sort of resonance with those existences that have slumbered or been dead for several millennia. How dreadful the resonance of that era is is something you can't even begin to comprehend," Duma said with a heavy tone.
Resonance…
Chen Feng frowned. For the primordial powers, the most important thing was resonance? What exactly was this so-called resonance? Chen Feng had way too many questions about all this.
Duma shook his head. "It is impossible to describe. If you encounter it in the future, you will know. Naturally, I hope that the day will never come… Although the powers of the Primordial Era are mighty, there are still differing levels, with some being weak as well. An example is the awakened ones. During the Primordial Era, awakened ones existed. If the power of resonance is not taken into consideration, their strength is in fact similar to ours. There was nothing special about them."
Chen Feng was astonished. "Oh?" The awakened of the Primordial Era was actually similar to present awakened ones? It seemed like the Primordial Era was not a big deal, then…
Suddenly, Chen Feng thought of something. "Oh, right. What exactly does awakened mean?"
"Awaken?" Duma contemplated. "I recall that, at that time, it was said that an ordinary person that had awakened the power of resonance would be called an awakened. As for their increased combat power, it was merely a supplementary effect of being awakened."
Chen Feng: "…"
Increase in combat power was merely a supplementary effect? In short, what he had achieved so far was nothing but a mere side effect of others when they awakened? So he was in fact a fake?
Hey, hold on.
Suddenly, Chen Feng recalled that the first time he had heard the term awakened had been on the Twin Horns World. Why would they be using the same term? Chen Feng was able to guess something. The Twin Horns World, the so-called alien world, the arena that was the so-called savior of space travelers, had probably been built by some refugees of that era? If so, this would be acceptable. Chen Feng's thoughts moved rapidly, numerous thoughts swirling around in his brain. With Duma's explanation, he was getting more curious about the so-called resonance power. However, even with this, Duma couldn't explain it to him.
"Resonance…" Duma shook his head. "I can't say it, I can't use it. It's too mysterious. If I provide an excessive explanation, I might truly attract the resonance of some existences."
"???" Chen Feng's eyes widened. Holy shit, a mere explanation would give rise to resonance as well?
Duma smiled bitterly. "Why else? This is also why those existences were akin to the sun, the moon, and the stars of the Primordial Era, why the world revolved around them. I hope that I will never see the power of resonance ever again."
Chen Feng raised a brow. Is that so? Resonance… was something one couldn't even speak about? This was the first time he had realized how scary this power could be. This was akin to a censoring software that would censor someone whenever they said something…
An example would be "water , Duma's ," and so on. One would never be able to see the full word, just a bunch of asterisks.
Resonance was evidently such an existence.
Suddenly, Chen Feng thought of something. "Can you use such a power, then?" One ought to know that Duma was also an awakened of that era.
Duma nodded his head. "Yes. The inheritance of our race is a bloodline inheritance. Everything will appear as we age. I still remember all of them. However, even now, I have never used them once, as I dare not. Even at the risk of becoming as weak as the present me, I still didn't dare use them." Duma gazed at the remaining pink on his body. "Although I don't know what will happen, the power of resonance… is something I will never use, if possible," Duma stated firmly, causing Chen Feng to exclaim in admiration at the prowess of resonance. Even if he had to be controlled by his disciple, even when near death, he still dared not use the power of resonance.
What exactly was this thing?
Suddenly, Chen Feng thought of something, and his eyes shone brightly. "Do I have such power?"

Chapter 642: Green, the World's Rescuer
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"I have such a power as well?" Chen Feng was happy to hear this.
"Yes. However, without anyone guiding you, you will forever unable to achieve resonance," Duma stated without any hesitation.
So that's the case. Chen Feng contemplated. Since Duma didn't dare to mention it, he would stop asking.
Chen Feng laughed bitterly. "It seems like I have been busy for nothing again." He had initially believed that he would be able to learn a lot of things here. However, after gaining some understanding, with great helplessness, he found that without using the power of resonance, nobody was any better than anyone else. After all, all the awakened powers were merely supplementary effects of the awakening.
Mhm…
This applied to even Duma. As such, he could stop dreaming about learning anything too powerful here.
"If so… I have one final question." Chen Feng looked at Duma. "Since you have such strength, are not part of the ancient race, and have also witnessed the birth and fall of numerous races and even lived through countless eras, why would you partake in the Holy War?"
Shua!
Duma raised his head abruptly. Holy War…
Compared to the distant Primordial Era, the Holy War was akin to something that had happened a short while ago, to the point that everything that had happened at that time was still vivid in his mind. So vivid was his memory that he could still remember that the Chen Feng and Qin Hai before him had also been there during the Holy War back then.
Duma shook his head. "Have you forgotten my duty? Ancients, devils, and humans, I don't really care who wins in the end. Otherwise, do you think I would have allowed the humans and ancients to integrate?"
Instantly, Chen Feng blushed with shame. That was true. If Duma had truly wanted to get involved in the affairs of the ancient race, those minor schemes Chen Feng had used on the ancients would have been pointless. All of humanity might have been destroyed instead.
"The rise and fall of a race is as the natural order should be and is unrelated to me. Back then, the only reason I got involved in the affair pertaining to the barbarians was because of their chief…" Duma frowned and continued, "He employed a primordial power! From somewhere unknown, he obtained some fragments of primordial items and nearly caused a resonance. I was forced to act."
Primordial…
Resonance…
Instantly, Chen Feng understood everything clearly. So it was because of that. If so, the barbarians hadn't been destroyed for nothing back then after all.
"How about the devils…" Chen Feng asked.
"They surprised me as well." Duma's head ached. "I was only forced to act on the barbarians. Next, it should have been the time for the devils and ancients to grow and further develop with the absence of the barbarians. Unexpectedly, scenes of me participating in the war were spread. Perhaps I had defeated the barbarians way too easily back then, scaring the devils to the extent that they all started slumbering."
Chen Feng was speechless when he heard this. So it turned out that the devils entering their slumber had been unexpected. This… If those devils were to find out the truth, they would probably be so angry that they started turning in their graves, right?
"You must pay more attention to that stone," Duma said with a solemn tone. "The moment the power of resonance is activated, it will be unstoppable. The Primordial Era might descend upon this world once again. Therefore… regardless of which primordial power it is, the moment it appears, you must destroy it. There's also that pink power…" Duma pondered and spoke solemnly. "I will teach you some techniques to search for and capture primordial powers. You will have to finish the job."
New technique acquired!
Chen Feng walked out of the palace and sighed deeply. He had initially come to increase his strength, yet ultimately, he had instead learned some scanning and scouting techniques that could be used on primordial powers. As for his personal combat power, there hadn't been many changes.
He pointed at the empty air three times.
Disintegrate!
Disintegrate!
Disintegrate!
He could feel the empty air disintegrating. This was a power far surpassing the comprehension level of an ordinary person, so powerful that one couldn't even begin to imagine its prowess. However, even something so powerful was merely a supplementary effect of the power of resonance?
Resonance… how powerful was it?
Chen Feng's heart chilled. Despite how powerful and attractive such powers were, if possible, Chen Feng did not wish to witness the appearance of such a power, since nobody knew what would happen afterward. Well, for now, he should first focus on dealing with the escaped pink power. Chen Feng shook his head and discarded his extra thoughts.
Shua!
With Spirit's assistance, Chen Feng was able to master the techniques quickly.
Hum—
A faint light wave swept out. From a certain distant location, a faint aura traveled back to him. It was precisely the pink origin that Chen Feng had encountered previously.
"Found you." Chen Feng was happy at the discovery. This technique to search for primordial powers was much more powerful than he had imagined.
Surprisingly, the pink origin was actually located within a human city in a certain flourishing metropolis.
Chen Feng had an ominous feeling. "Not good." He had once experienced himself how scary this thing was. If the pink decided to attack without prejudice, something might happen to an entire city with a population of several million residents. As he thought of this, Chen Feng rushed over.
Shortly after, Chen Feng arrived in the city. Even without using the searching technique, he was already able to feel the existence of the pink origin. Following after the aura, he was able to locate it soon after.
However, when Chen Feng saw the pink, he froze. He had guessed that the pink would probably latch upon another person. However, he had never expected that the pink would actually select her! Xie Zhongtong!
At present, the scantily dressed Xie Zhongtong was having "fun" with a group of people. Numerous hands roamed her body, and numerous peculiar voices resounded amid this alley.
This fellow…
Chen Feng sighed. Xie Zhongtong and Han Yula had gone through numerous hardships before they had been able to put this wild side of hers under control and finally been able to be together. Unexpectedly, something had still happened to her. Initially, he had believed that due to their experiences together, at most, Han Yula would suffer a little amount of green[1] 1 . But now, it seemed like the green on Han Yula's head was as wide as a grassland, to the point that horses could run on it.
Shua!
Chen Feng flashed over and was about to act when he suddenly saw the dazed expression in Xie Zhongtong's eyes. Instantly, he was alarmed. This appearance… Could it be…
Chen Feng stopped moving and observed carefully for a short while. Finally, he confirmed one astonishing fact. That powerful and mysterious primordial power was in fact enjoying this! That's right, the pink power was enjoying being caressed by this group of people here.
Chen Feng was truly startled. "This…" This was a primordial power! These people should be akin to bugs and tools for this primordial power! Yet this power was actually enjoying this…
"Could it be…" Chen Feng took in a deep breath. "Such a dreadful power has actually been influenced by Xie Zhongtong's nature?"
If that was the case, how "passionate" was Xie Zhongtong as a person for her to even influence a primordial power?
"It's possible," Spirit agreed without hesitation. "In fact, after that senior apprentice sister was possessed, the pink was influenced by her to a certain extent as well. That is why the pink hated you so much. However, that senior apprentice sister's willpower seemed rather ordinary, as toward the end, she was fully under the pink's control. As for this Xie Zhongtong… and if this is truly the pink origin… based on the strength of that senior apprentice sister after fusing with this pink origin, the moment this pink fused with Xie Zhongtong, the power was sufficient to cover this entire city," Spirit deduced seriously. "That senior apprentice sister's ability is merely charming, controlling one's mind. As for Xie Zhongtong, she can induce a mass breeding season! Her only weakness thus far is that her strength is too weak. But after fusing with the pink power, this weakness no longer exists. This is what's scary about this situation. The moment Xie Zhongtong unleashes her full power, this entire city, the several million inhabitants, nobody will be able to escape."
Chen Feng: "…"
Chen Feng started to imagine the scene where, after this incident, numerous new videos were uploaded onto those amateur porno websites. As he thought of that, his head ached. Perhaps that was the reason the pink power chose Xie Zhongtong? The only mishap was that, after latching on to Xie Zhongtong, the pink power had surprisingly been influenced by Xie Zhongtong's nature instead and had started enjoying all this…
Chen Feng sighed. "Scary." Our dear friend Han Yula is truly pitiful.
Spirit continued deducing seriously. "It doesn't matter. In any case, he is already so green that his heart is hopeless. Why would he bother with increasing the intensity of his green? He is already so green that he's a forest now."
Chen Feng sighed endlessly. From the alley, bizarre panting sounds resounded without stop. Spirit was still making deductions. "From her expression, tone, and her bodily reaction, she will be fully engrossed in this state of utter bliss soon… The moment you act, she will be jolted awake from this state of utter bliss in an extremely miserable manner. At that time, there is a 96% probability that she will then unleash a wide area attack. The possibility of this entire city falling victim is incredibly high. Therefore, I suggest that you don't do anything for now and continue observing the development."
This was Spirit's proposal.

Chapter 643: Epicenter
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"How long will it take to free itself from Xie Zhongtong's influence?" Chen Feng asked. Based on the previous circumstances of the senior apprentice sister, this pink power was capable of invading one's mind, from the initial slight influence to the final complete control. Chen Feng did not know how long Xie Zhongtong could last before she was fully under the pink's control.
"Mhm…" Spirit paused, doubt on her face, and lowered her head to ponder seriously for a while before saying, "I don't know."
Chen Feng looked at Spirit in astonishment. "You don't know?" Weren't deductions extremely easy for Spirit?
"Mhm…" Spirit scratched her head. "I am indeed able to deduce when it comes to regular people. However, Xie Zhongtong is rather unique. From my observations, I noticed that the fusion of that pink origin and Xie Zhongtong has gotten deeper and deeper. To be more accurate, the pink power has submitted to Xie Zhongtong's nature… It seems to have fallen."
Huh?
Chen Feng was dumbstruck. Fallen? A magnificent primordial power had fallen to Xie Zhongtong?
Hiss—
Chen Feng took in a deep breath in shock. In short, this nature of Xie Zhongtong's was incredibly astonishing? Her previous act of "destroying" an entire family all by herself had already been an act of incredible restraint?
Holy shit.
Chen Feng was shocked speechless. In this wide world, everything was indeed possible.
"Based on the circumstances of a human body, the primordial power poses no threat in this state. Rather, for the forever-alone single males, this is a special benefit. There is no need to worry about this primordial power for now. You can also say that Xie Zhongtong's nature has temporarily semi-sealed the primordial power."
Chen Feng nodded. "Understood."
It seemed like this pink power had been temporarily rendered ineffective. In any case, before he found a way to prevent the growth of this pink power, he should not wake it up from this state. It would be the best if it could forever sink into depravity…
"Take your time enjoying the beauty of mankind." Chen Feng retired himself noiselessly. There, in the alley, the most natural of voices a human could make resounded without stop.
"It's a pity for Han Yula." Chen Feng's heart ached somewhat. After all, Han Yula had put in great effort in order to be with Xie Zhongtong. He had learned a lot of new abilities, such as cloning abilities, multitasking abilities, and so on. Telling Han Yula about this? Forget it. Chen Feng did not wish to see Xie Zhongtong awoken from her present state. For humanity, Han Yula would have to suffer.
Chen Feng pondered and turned his screen on noiselessly. Next, he entered a certain music website and gifted Han Yula 10 years worth of green diamond VIP access to the music streaming website. Hopefully, this would serve as some sort of consolation for him…
When Han Yula felt lonely, he could listen to some songs here. Perhaps it would help improve his mood. For example, Miss Dong, A Little Happiness, Youth Justice Bao, and so on. Chen Feng had no idea if this world had these songs or not, though. [1] 1
For now, this pink power affair could be momentarily put aside. Chen Feng intended to go pay that mysterious stone mentioned by Duma a visit. Based on what Duma had said, that mysterious stone was floating above a lake. It was terrifying and powerful. However, if one did not approach the stone, one wouldn't suffer from anything.
Alas, when Chen Feng arrived, nothing could be found there. The stone had gone missing. Not only the stone, the entire lake had gone missing as well. On the ground, only a huge hole was left behind. Seemingly, the stone and every single drop of water in the lake had been moved away.
Chen Feng was alarmed. "Taken away by someone else?" That stone was so terrifying. If it fused with someone… it would be a disaster!
Shua!
He tried searching for the stone using the technique taught by Duma. Unfortunately, nothing was found. That stone had seemingly vanished from the face of the world. It was unable to be found at all.
Chen Feng frowned. "Has it been taken away?" The present him was extremely strong, the apex of humanity. However, the stronger he was, the more intense the fear he felt. The enigmatic primordial powers that kept appearing without stop, the unknown existences hidden within the undeveloped regions, and the astonishing news that came without stop from that mysterious town…
Perhaps an ordinary human would instead be the one to live a happy life, as ignorance is bliss?
Chen Feng sighed. "Looks like things are getting somewhat troublesome."
The disappearance of that stone hadn't allowed Chen Feng to feel relieved. Rather, it caused his entire body to chill due to the fear of the unknown he was presently feeling.
"This place…" Chen Feng stepped into the hole. He wanted to see if any traces were left here. Suddenly, his entire body shivered, as his Luck Aura, which had been silent for so long in his body, started blooming intensely.
A terrifying aura erupted.
Bang!
Chen Feng was alarmed. And then, before he could even react to it, his Luck Aura once again deactivated and went silent, as if what happened earlier had been but an illusion.
What was going on?
Chen Feng was stupefied. Why had Luck Aura raged suddenly before vanishing? Chen Feng pondered as he looked at the leftover traces in the hole. Perhaps the feeble leftover aura here had influenced his Luck Aura? If so, if he truly found that mysterious stone, Luck Aura could very well wake up from its slumber and might even undergo a transformation.
This thing… Chen Feng vowed that he had to find this thing. With the present understanding humanity had of this world, so long as that stone hadn't entered the boundless ocean, which remained unexplored, he would most certainly be able to find it.
"I will get the deputy president to help me…" Chen Feng turned his communicator on and was about to give an order to the Genetic Union.
Suddenly, a loud boom resounded.
Bang!
The earth trembled. From a certain location so far that the naked eye couldn't see it, a huge shaking could be felt. Even with his present strength, he was still unable to sense the precise location it originated from.
Chen Feng was horrified. "How far away is it?" It was confirmed that something had happened. For even him to be unable to sense the exact location, that signified that the location was extremely far away. However, this distance wasn't the scariest thing about this. What was scary was that, despite how far it was, Chen Feng could still feel the tremors.
Shua!
He turned his screen on quickly. The internet, which had been peaceful for a while, was presently bustling.
"What happened?"
"No idea. That scared the shit out of me. I nearly got into an accident."
"My factory suffered a disastrous loss as well. Fortunately, there were no casualties. The tremors are so intense. Where did it happen?"
"No idea. I was on the verge of winning a public match. Because of the tremors, I missed my ultimate."
"You should be happy with that. Do you know that I was getting it on with my lovely wife earlier? With the sudden shaking, I inserted my 'tool' in the wrong hole."
"…Take care, bro."
"I'm fainting. Where exactly did this happen?"
"No idea. Here in the East, we only felt the tremors."
"Same for the West."
"It should be the same for the South."
"The tremors in the North aren't that bad."
Countless people started indicating that they were safe and sound online. Alarmingly, almost everyone had only sensed the intense tremors. Not a single location had been reported to have suffered a huge disaster.
Chen Feng frowned. "How can this…" He got Spirit to gather the information online and noted that almost all cities in existence had reported that they were fine, even including the cities of the ancient race. In short, the location where the disaster had happened…
Chen Feng gazed in the direction of the boundless ocean, the unexplored and undeveloped 48% of this planet! Had something happened there? That was Chen Feng's guess.
Right at this instant, his communicator buzzed. He glanced at it and noted that it was the deputy president. "Chen Feng, I'm afraid you will have to come over. We were able to detect the origin of the tremors. But the location… is in the depths of this planet's core."

Chapter 644: Great Changes at the Core
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
At the planet's core, a purple-black aura rolled about, akin to a huge hand. A mysterious and powerful aura was spreading around the planet's core. At present, this core was completely unlike humanity's understanding of what a planet's core was like. The entire core currently resembled a trembling life-form. Suddenly, the purple-black aura converged together and assumed the shape of a sinister door. Next, a familiar yet unfamiliar aura was guided in…
Bang! Bang!
Numerous mysterious and powerful existences appeared.
They cheered in an insane manner.
They cried tears of joy.
Trembling, they sensed the aura of the world.
"We… have returned!"
Bang!
A terrifying aura spread out.
…
Genetic Union.
Chen Feng was looking at the information regarding the undulation that had suddenly appeared.
"A few hours ago, we detected large-scale activity at the core. Based on our investigation, this is not a natural disaster." With a solemn expression, the technician continued, "After getting the assistance of the Genetic Union, we were able to confirm that these detected signs of activity are related to the tremors."
In short, this was what had caused the tremors? Chen Feng looked at the traces indicated on the screen. As this was information they had obtained through some unique scouting ability, they had only been able to obtain a rough outline of the cause. However, from the looks of the outline…
Chen Feng's eyes flashed with a petrifying radiance. "Human?"
"We are still not sure yet. The outline is too crude. We were unable to obtain a clearer image and can only judge that these signs of activity were the result of certain life-forms," the technician explained.
"Life-forms…" Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. He fixed his gaze on the outline for a short while before saying, "I am not good at science. However, isn't the planet's core a place an ordinary person can't even hope to reach?"
"That's right." The technician nodded. "That place has a vile environment. It is simply impossible for an ordinary person to survive there. Since the start of the Genetic Era, humanity's strength has increased greatly. We were once worried that someone would go destroy the core with their newfound strength, causing a disaster for the entire planet. As such, we indeed deployed some people to the core back then to reconnoiter the area. Then, we found that… that place is probably the firmest part of this entire planet. It is impossible to destroy."
Chen Feng frowned. "Oh?" The firmest part of the planet?
The technician nodded. "Yes. This unique era didn't just affect the life-forms of this planet. Even the core was affected and transformed. How should I put this… That is a place that can no longer be described using science. Regardless of who it is, entering the core is an act of suicide."
"Why is that?" Chen Feng was astonished. A technician that did not possess much understanding of genetic abilities would actually be so sure of this fact.
"Because…" The technician inhaled before continuing, "…that is a place where all abilities are rendered ineffective."
Chen Feng's eyes widened. "What?"
"All abilities will be rendered ineffective," the technician repeated. "Regardless of what one uses, either unique abilities or unique methods, upon reaching the core, all abilities will be instantly deactivated. Regardless of what ability or method you have, it will be useless there."
Deactivated…
Chen Feng frowned. Genetic abilities were the only things genetic warriors could rely on. The moment they were deactivated, a genetic warrior would be as good as a cripple even in the outside world, let alone in the core. Chen Feng recalled the frozen sea. Back then, the scariest aspect of that place had been its effect of rendering one's abilities ineffective before killing one instantly. This resembled the core greatly. The only difference was the location, as at the core, one would have no place to escape.
Hold on…
Chen Feng looked at the outlines drawn on the screen. How about these guys?
The technician smiled bitterly. "Right, that's what we are most worried about. Numerous experts were deployed there previously, yet all of them were instantly killed upon arrival. That is a place nobody can survive. Yet these life-forms…"
So that's why. Chen Feng's expression became solemn as he finally realized how grave this was. The main point wasn't the effectiveness of genetic abilities down there at the core. Rather, those unknown existences were the main point here.
A place that humanity still couldn't enter even after the joint effort of Research Agency and Genetic Union but where, in an unfathomable manner, some bizarre life-forms had appeared, moving around down there like they were on the surface instead. They had even caused a tremor that had shaken the entire world. This could be considered a light tremor. If they were to truly do something crazy down there, such as creating a larger tremor, thus creating numerous disaster-level earthquakes worldwide, humanity wouldn't be that far off from extinction. The core was indeed extremely solid, seemingly incapable of being destroyed, yet this fact was only proven for humans.
The technician was anxious. "We must deal with this. We must figure out what exactly those fellows are. Are they life-forms that came into existence naturally at the core? Or perhaps…" He paused and then continued, "They are humans."
Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. Humans... Although they only had a rough outline of the shapes and couldn't see clearly, what they could see greatly resembled humans. If these were truly humans…
"Is there any other news?" Chen Feng asked.
The technician shook his head. "No. Since their appearance, they have been staying there all this while."
"What are you guys planning to do?" Chen Feng asked. There were countless geniuses of multiple disciplines in both the Research Agency and Genetic Union. Although these people's strength was rather ordinary, they would still be able to help think of some solutions.
"We have already proposed and started a plan. The blue-diamond senior from the ancient race seems to be able to send people directly to the depths of the core. As such, we at the Research Agency created suits that were supposed to grant immunity to the damage dealt by the core, with some extra survival functions integrated into the suits as well. With this, we thought we might be able to encounter those life-forms," the technician reported honestly.
"What's the result of that?" Chen Feng had a rough guess.
The technician's expression darkened. "All dead. They are extremely powerful. All our people were instantly killed before we were able to gather any data."
The cameras they had installed had been destroyed before the cameras had even been able to capture the appearance of those life-forms.
"What is the assessment of their strength?" Chen Feng asked.
"Unknown." The technicians shook his head. "However, the people we sent were all pure beyond-A-class warriors with formidable physical prowess even without any genetic abilities."
If the Genetic Union were sending people there, they would definitely send the elites.
Beyond A classes…
Instantly killed…
Could those people be awakened ones? How was that possible? Chen Feng shook his head. It seemed like these newcomers were definitely not simple. However, Chen Feng was still feeling doubtful, as all this seemed too weird. The Research Agency had monitored the core for so many years, yet not a single life-form had been found.
That was the core, not some unknown region. If so, where had those fellows come from? After the integration of the humans and ancients, at present, only the ocean remained unexplored on this planet. Could it be that these fellows had come from the depths of the ocean?
"Beyond A class… Instantly killed… Awakened…" Chen Feng frowned. Suddenly, his eyes widened as he seemingly recalled something. Abruptly, he charged toward the screen, fixed his gaze on the outlines, and said, "Enlarge their heads."
Shua!
"Yes, this part, their temples. Enlarge it. More!"
The crude looking outlines were enlarged. Immediately, Chen Feng's expression changed. Even if the outlines appeared incredibly crude and had a lot of details missing, Chen Feng was still able to see something familiar there… On two sides of their heads, two things could be seen protruding out. Those seemed to be… twin horns!

Chapter 645: This World Is Too Dangerous
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
At the depths of the core, a faint radiance was swirling about. A brand-new camp had been built here at this place where a mysterious aura pervaded. Several life-forms with twin horns on their heads were seemingly observing the environment here.
"The camp has been built."
"The coordinates have been confirmed. We are building a teleportation tunnel."
"How long will it take?"
"Ten days."
"Very good," the leader said.
Ten days…
After only ten more days, everyone in their world could descend. They had been trapped at the Twin Horns World for way too long… so long that they had already forgotten their origin, to the point that they had forgotten that this was in fact the planet they had originated from. However, despite the fact that the time for the mass arrival had already been set, the captain leading this team was still somewhat doubtful, a blank expression on his face.
The rest were curious as they saw this. "What's up?"
"There are still some things I am worried about."
"Oh?"
Anxiousness surfaced on his face. "For example, who is the one who suddenly sent the coordinates of this place to us?" After Chen Feng's departure, he had believed that he would forever be unable to reach this planet. However, just as they had been about to give up, they had received some coordinates. At that time, they who had given up input the coordinates and sent their strongest vanguard team to enter. That had led to everything that had happened next on this planet. They had returned and had been extremely excited to be back. However… who had delivered the coordinates to them?
The person beside him frowned and pondered for a bit before saying, "Perhaps it was merely a coincidence? People who have fallen into spatial currents will send distress signals out. Although most of the time, the signals won't work, they still try sending signals anyway. Maybe the coordinates we received was a distress signal sent by a human trapped amid the spatial currents? Perhaps this was a coordinate he sent when he had just fallen into the spatial currents, before the currents could sweep him away?
"At the same time, we, who were looking for signals, received it and rushed over immediately. Although we didn't arrive in time to rescue that person, we still arrived on his world. This would precisely be the place that was near where that person was swept into the spatial currents," that person analyzed calmly. As the scout of the vanguard, he was normally good at logical deductions.
The captain gave it some thought and agreed that such a possibility could be true. "That is possible." These years, they had received coordinates numbering in the tens of thousands, yet only a very few of them had been useful, let alone them being the coordinates of a planet with life on it. After so many trash coordinates, it was about time they had received useful coordinates for once.
The captain nodded. "That would be for the best." He truly wanted to believe this completely. However, as the captain of the vanguard, he had to keep watch on the general situation and consider all possibilities. Based on his judgment, the possibility of this being true was around 10%. There was another possibility…
"What is the other possibility?" the other person asked.
"Chen Feng!" the captain said without hesitation.
"Ah?"
The others were somewhat stupefied. Chen Feng? The little guy who had just entered the awakened realm? How could this relate to him?
"Think about it. Is it possible that these coordinates were sent by Chen Feng?" The captain paused.
"What?"
Everyone's expression changed greatly. Initially, they hadn't thought of this. Now that the captain had reminded them, everyone was sweating profusely. If it was truly Chen Feng…
"Luring us here to kill us?"
They were instantly horrified. The last person that had transmigrated to their world was Chen Feng. And yet, this time, they had been able to appear here. Was this purely coincidence? If Chen Feng had told his clan or the other experts of this world about the Twin Horns World after returning to this world, if those formidable existences found out about the Twin Horns World…
As they considered this, they took in a deep breath in shock.
Hiss—
Their expressions became solemn. "How cruel!" At this time, they could no longer believe in a so-called coincidence.
The moment they considered this possibility, they were certain that this was most definitely the work of that Chen Feng! Naturally, the only thing they could rejoice about was the fact that they had actually appeared at the core.
"I suppose that, at present, the human world is already laden with traps waiting for us. The moment we leave, we will be discovered by the humans," the captain said in a gloomy voice. Planetary transportation was already a process that used vague coordinates in the first place, since they would only have the coordinates of the planet and would arrive at a random location within. The humans had to have already prepared for their arrival. Fortunately, their place of arrival was the core. Otherwise…
"What should we do, then?"
They were all anxious. As they thought about the traps and humans waiting at the surface to kill them, they couldn't help being anxious. They were rather fearful of the so-called Genetic Era Chen Feng had mentioned before.
"Why don't we go out and scout the strength of this world first?" someone suggested. They hadn't been back for long. The only contact they'd had with anything of this world was Chen Feng's arrival to their world. As such, they urgently needed to understand this world.
The captain rejected the proposal. "No, it's too dangerous. We can roughly guess the strength of this world. The words of Chen Feng can't be believed. However, his identity is something worth considering. Have you forgotten his strength back then? A young man of 20 years old was actually able to enter the awakened realm. This is rather astonishing. If this world is filled with such awakened ones…" He was filled with anxiousness as he continued, "…This might very well be a world where awakened ones walk everywhere."
As the rest heard this, their mood became heavy. True, if the strength system of this world was so scary, if Chen Feng had merely been a youngster sent out on a trip to temper himself, so what if they were finally able to return to this world? So what if this was a big world?
If they were to leave and were discovered, they would most probably die. They were here as the vanguard to reconnoiter this planet, not to feed Chen Feng.
Their expressions became solemn. "So that's the case."
"Remember. Before the main team arrives, do not leave. We can't attract their attention. Regardless of whether this world is presently strong or weak, we must remain low profile and observe this world silently. We must calmly await the arrival of our lord." That person spoke of the lord with a respectful expression. "Only when our lord descends upon this world will we be able to kill our way out and carve out a piece of territory for our race. That will be our sole superiority."
"Yes!"
They all accepted their orders. They were aware that only when that lord arrived would they be able to strike back against the people of this planet. Once again, the core sunk into silence. Each of them reduced their breath to the bare minimum, afraid of attracting the attention of outsiders. Only the teleportation node near them was flickering without stop.
Hum—
Hum—
Their gaze swept over. They knew that after 10 days, the teleportation tunnel would be completed. They were merely the vanguard. Only when the true experts of the Twin Horns World arrived would it be time for them to make their debut on this world.
The ambushes of the humans…
Luring them over to be killed…
We will not fail like this!

Chapter 646: Attack into the Core
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Genetic Union.
Chen Feng was looking at the scanned image anxiously. Looking at the vague outline of twin horns, he wondered how those terrifying fellows had arrived at this world. He hadn't stayed at the Twin Horns World for long, yet from his short time at the arena, he had been able to gain a rough understanding of the strength of that world.
On that world, those below the awakened realm were only qualified to work at the arena to provide entertainment for the masses. Only an awakened one could stand out among his peers. Beyond this realm, there was an existence even more terrifying, an existence he had once overheard Ruo Shui mention as the lord, or something like that.
As such, the first thing Chen Feng had done after returning was get Kong Bai to erase all traces of their transmigration. Unexpectedly, those fellows had still arrived here, and during such a crucial moment for this planet too.
Chen Feng let out a long breath. "Hu—"
The primordial power that had latched onto Xie Zhongtong's body…
The Mysterious Town under the control of Research Agency…
The twin-horns race that had appeared suddenly at the core…
This seemingly peaceful world had, at an unknown time, suffered significant damage. Chen Feng had an ominous premonition.
"I will have to deal with them one at a time, then." Chen Feng pondered. The first two issues were related to primordial power, and he couldn't do anything about them. At present, he could only try to deal with the twin-horns race. Those terrifying fellows had appeared at the core for unknown reasons. Chen Feng wasn't worried that they would destroy this planet. This planet was huge and incredibly sturdy. Destroying this planet would be even harder than wiping out the humans on it.
The only thing he was worried about was the tremors they had caused before. If those fellows tried using the core to cause a huge disaster on the surface world, things would be very troublesome.
Core…
Tremor…
Chen Feng frowned. He was still somewhat doubtful. To a certain extent, he understood the people of the Twin Horns World. Those people did not have particularly powerful physiques. If the core was capable of rendering all abilities ineffective, how were those people surviving down there?
Chen Feng raised a brow. "Their abilities can still be used down there."
The technician shook his head. "That's impossible. We tested it previously. That place…"
Chen Feng shook his head. "No, the abilities I am referring to are awakened abilities."
The technician scratched his head. "Oh." They truly hadn't conducted any tests on awakened abilities. After all, that was something they had never touched upon before. Huh? Hold on. His eyes widened and he looked at Chen Feng. "Are you saying that all of them are awakened ones?"
Chen Feng nodded. "Yes."
"How is that possible…" the technician cried out in alarm. Those fellows at the core were all awakened ones? One ought to know that among humans, Chen Feng was the only awakened one. As for those fellows…
He looked at Chen Feng. "How do you know that?"
Chen Feng gave a rough explanation of what he knew.
Alien world…
Twin horns…
The technician took all this in quickly and recorded everything down before entering a contemplation, seemingly rearranging the new information he had gained.
"If they are truly awakened ones… Let me think about it… A lot of things can now be explained." The technician rearranged all the data quickly and explained, "The core prevents the usage of abilities. However, they are all awakened ones and are not under such restrictions. That is also why all the beyond-A-class warriors we sent were killed instantly. Since we had no understanding of the enemy, we weren't able to evaluate them properly, but now…"
He compared the data they had gathered with what Chen Feng had given him. "Based on the damage the genetic warriors received when they were killed, we can judge that the strength they demonstrated was around 20% of the awakened strength you registered back then. If so, I judge that they must have been influenced somewhat by the core as well. The awakened strength they can muster has been weakened by at least 80%." The technician reached a conclusion quickly. "There are five of them, with each being an awakened with only 20% of their strength."
Chen Feng gasped at the analytical capability of this technician. Impressive.
The technician had only said this out loud to explain to Chen Feng. On the screen, lots of data flashed past without stop. Evidently, this conclusion had been reached and verified after countless calculations. Worthy of being a specialist indeed. However, even if they only had 20% of their awakened strength, they were still not something beyond A classes could contend against. The Genetic Union simply had no means of eliminating them. At present, humans were still too weak.
"We will have to rely on you for this," the technician said with a bitter smile.
"I know." Chen Feng looked at the data analyzed by the technician silently. Five awakened ones, huh…
It might seem very tempting to make a move on them with their 20% strength. However, even if Chen Feng and Duma both went there, they would similarly be restricted by the core as well and would only be able to muster 20% of their strength. Moreover, the present Duma was no different than a cripple.
Chen Feng's head ached. "Let me think about it…" The position and strength of the enemy had been ascertained. However, they just couldn't defeat the enemy. What else could they do? Ordinary abilities were completely restricted, and awakened abilities were weakened by 80% down there.
Mhm…
Suddenly, Chen Feng's eyes shone. Perhaps… there is still a way. "Prepare the best equipment immediately."
"Yes."
"Bring along all the detection equipment as well. These fellows might very well be the vanguard of the Twin Horns World. We must capture a few of them for research."
"Yes."
Chen Feng sneered. "Let us meet them with force for once, then."
Time passed silently.
At the depths of the core, the twin-horns members were silently awaiting the completion of their teleporter.
Hum—
Hum—
The teleporter glowed with a faint radiance, yet no connection had been established yet. It was already the third day. The teleporter had already progressed to a certain degree. Everyone waited there and erased the undulations of the teleporter with their mighty prowess, preventing this from being leaked out.
"How much longer?"
"Five days. Things are progressing much smoother than we imagined."
"Excellent." The captain nodded before looking at a different person. "How's the energy test?"
"The activity level of the energy is rather low. Our abilities are somewhat weakened," that person stated.
"Mhm." The captain nodded, not too bothered about that.
Since they were on a different planet, the activity level of the energy here would be different. Naturally, the might displayed by the same abilities would be different as a result. However, something like this would affect everyone, Chen Feng included. If everyone was similarly weakened, nothing would change during battle.
The captain looked at the communication crew. "Has the connection been established with them?"
"Nope." That person shook his head. "The barrier around this world is too powerful. Before the teleporter is completed, no connection will be possible. However, we can send a one way pre-recorded message back."
The captain nodded. "That's better than nothing." The faster they could send a message back, the faster they could start preparing. Soon, the preparations to send the message were completed.
The captain coughed before starting to report their gains during this trip. "Presently, we have just arrived on the human world. This world is much larger than we imagined. From the energy intensity at the core, this planet is much larger than the Twin Horns World. The activity level of the energy here is rather low. Perhaps that is a result of the suppression of some powerful force. We have yet to encounter the inhabitants of this world…"
Suddenly, a booming explosion resounded.
Bang!
Above them, a hole had been blasted open. From it, a bright and resplendent blue flashed, and numerous figures landed loudly on the ground.
"Who is it?" The expressions of the twin-horns members changed greatly. From the hole, numerous figures descended. The one leading them all was an extremely familiar person.
"Chen Feng!" The captain was alarmed as he saw Chen Feng.
"Hehe." Chen Feng merely sneered before waving his hand. "Go!"
Bang!
All the figures charged forth.
The vanguard members were all furious. "Courting death." What they feared were the awakened ones of this world. This did not mean that they feared Chen Feng. This was especially true since all these people brought by Chen Feng were unawakened. The captain glanced around and noted that all of them were unawakened ones. All of them were trash!
Bang!
The powerful power belonging to awakened ones bloomed.
They bombarded those figures immediately. Alas, they were all alarmed to find that all their attacks were ineffective when landing on those figures. Those figures had taken on all the attacks with their bodies and weren't even slowed down in their charge.
"Kill!" With numerous shouts, those figures charged at the twin-horns members.
The expressions of the twin-horns members changed greatly. "What should we do?"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Once again, numerous powerful awakened powers bloomed as numerous energy balls exploded midair, sweeping toward those charging figures. Alas, alarmingly, those figures… continued to ignore all attacks. They were immune to all attacks and moved quickly and violently, like ferocious beasts, petrifying the twin-horns members.

Chapter 647: Too Scary
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
The captain looked at these people in fear. "You guys are…"
Pu!
A punch came flying. The captain felt a surging force land on his body before blasting his internal organs into a mess.
Bang!
Just like that, his awakened body was smashed apart.
Hum—
Energy flashed about as light swirled around the captain's body, restoring his body once again. On the face of this newly built body, fear was plastered. Before he could even do anything, another punch landed, and once again, his body was smashed apart.
One time, two times, three times…
Pop!
Pop!
The continuous sounds of meat being pummeled were petrifying. The body of an awakened was so powerful that it should be unequaled, yet here, this awakened fellow was being ravaged like a punching bag to the point that he couldn't even fight back. They were actually suffering a one-sided beatdown.
The captain was thoroughly dumbstruck. "This is impossible." They were awakened ones. They were the elites of the Twin Horns World! They were the experts of the vanguard. Why had they failed to even beat a few humans here on this planet? This wasn't possible! He looked at the black uniform those figures were wearing…
Oh…
Right, it had to be the suits they were wearing! Due to the suits, their enemies were immune to their attacks. The captain guessed that the development of the awakened ones on this planet was probably much higher than their Twin Horns World. That was why they had suits and other methods capable of countering the awakened ones.
In that case... The captain's eyes flashed. All will be fine if their suits are torn apart!
Bang!
He gave the order decisively. All the twin-horns members that were being ravaged erupted with their respective trump cards at the same time. A terrifying force swept out. Their sole objective was tearing apart these people's suits.
Bang! Bang!
The core became as bright as day from all the powerful attacks being unleashed. Indeed, under the joint attacks of the twin-horns members, the suits were finally torn apart. Finally, the true appearance of these figures was revealed. However, the twin-horns members were instead stupefied by what they saw.
What were they seeing? Children?
Those figures dressed in black suits were actually all young kids! All of them looked around 15 or 16 years old, even younger than Chen Feng!
"All 15- and 16-year-old kids…"
"How is this possible…"
They were all rendered speechless. Wait, they had to have been so strong because of the suits…
Shua!
One of the twin-horns members unleashed his awakened power. Next, with his very own eyes, he watched as his attack exploded on the body of one of those kids yet no damage whatsoever was dealt.
…
At this, all the twin-horns members sank into silence.
Kids…
Fifteen, sixteen years old…
Immune to awakened attacks…
Holy shit, the human world had developed to such an extent? Their hearts chilled.
"Take them down," Chen Feng commanded coldly.
Shua!
The kids swarmed the twin-horns members. With great sorrow, the twin-horns members discovered that they were completely helpless before these kids.
"Remember," the captain howled toward the message he had been recording earlier, "never... ever... come…"
Bang!
His eyes darkened as he was punched into unconsciousness.
"What was he saying?" Chen Feng frowned as he looked at the unconscious twin-horns members. Next, he got someone to destroy the teleportation formation before getting brother blue diamond of the ancient race to send them back. Chen Feng was extremely satisfied with this mission.
The planet's core… was truly a wonderful place! Due to the terrain, awakened power was weakened by 80% there. He had specifically selected the most elite of the children among the barbarians and gathered a bunch of barbarian kids with energy immunity reaching 95% or above. When the natural weakened state combined with the barbarian kids' immunity, the awakened ones were reduced to nothing.
With the powerful bloodline of the barbarians, they had taught these twin horns fellows what true strength was. Next, he would have to consider how to study these fellows. After all, these were twin-horns members… If Chen Feng's guess was correct, their ancestors were once from this planet as well. For some unknown reason, they had moved away.
A race with twin horns? Chen Feng wondered if they were related to Teletubbies or not.
Shua!
Chen Feng and the rest vanished from the core gradually.
After they left, a transparent undulation vanished amid the space. This was the imprint left behind by the twin-horns members.
Hum—
This clump of energy traveled through space and finally returned to the Twin Horns World. There, the Twin Horns World had already assembled their troops. They were ready for the expedition. Everyone was filled with joy and was looking forward to leaving this crude and small planet, returning to the legendary huge planet. Everyone waited longingly for the completion of their teleporter.
Alas…
Bang!
With a loud boom, the teleporter exploded. Everyone was dumbfounded. Exploded?
"What happened?"
They were all alarmed. Just as they were in the midst of bewilderment, that clump of energy returned noiselessly and landed on a microphone. Next, the message sent by the vanguard captain was played.
"Cough, cough."
"At present, we have just arrived at the human world. This world is much larger…"
A familiar voice could be heard speaking. Everyone looked over instinctively. Alas, not long after, they heard alarming news from the speaker.
Chen Feng…
Kids 15 to 16 years old…
A one-sided beatdown…
All this caused their hearts to palpitate in fear. This was especially true for the final words of the captain. The entirety of the Twin Horns World sunk into silence. Tens of thousands of awakened ones paled as they heard all this. They were awakened ones in their 30s and were considered elites to have been able to awaken at such an age. Unexpectedly, on that world, the humans were actually that powerful even at 15 or 16 years old?
Humans… were truly scary…
This was clearly a higher-level planet! In other words, the Twin Horns World was a low-tier martial world, whereas the human world was evidently a high-tier martial world.
"Perhaps… these are the only experts they have?" one person meekly said. The rest looked at him like they were looking at an idiot.
"Our Twin Horns World is too small and is incapable of containing a great population, but the human world is different. Based on what we heard from those who accidentally arrived at this world back then, the human world has a population surpassing a hundred million. Our only hope was for that world to possess ordinary combat power, or perhaps we could settle at some part of the planet they had yet to discover. But now, it seems like…"
Everyone sunk into silence. Countless years had been spent looking for a way back to their home planet.
Now, they had indeed found the way back. Unfortunately, the human world was already so terrifying. The vanguard had only arrived three days ago and had been hiding at the core all along, yet they had already been discovered? How scary were the humans? None of them knew!
The humans had a population surpassing a hundred million. Among the sea of awakened ones they had, how strong would the elites be? Even if their lord was with them… could he be victorious? They had no idea, and they did not dare take this gamble.
"Our only superiority is the fact that the humans have yet to discover our coordinates. However, if we keep sending people over, it is very possible that we might be the ones being invaded instead…"
"Yes."
Everyone agreed with this. They still remembered clearly how easily Chen Feng had transmigrated around. The humans' study of transmigration and spatial teleportation could very well be much more advanced than their own.
"Therefore… we must never act rashly. We must prepare fully. When we enter that world next time, we must ensure that we can at least survive on that planet. We do not even need to try to defeat the humans. We only need to survive… to keep living on the humans' world! Presently, we are still too weak. Let's… postpone this plan to enter the human world for now."

Chapter 648: The Care from a High-Tier Martial World
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Research Agency.
The research of the twin-horns race had officially started. After finding out about the strength of the Twin Horns World from Chen Feng, they did not dare to slack and vowed to figure out the truth behind the appearance of these twin-horns members in this world. Why had they come? How had they come? All of these were things they had to find out. The captured twin horns were telling everything they knew.
"Our ancestors were once inhabitants of this planet as well. They accidentally fell into that piece of space. As the amount of the fallen ones increased, the new generation started a new life there, creating the present Twin Horns World.
"It's real. Everything I have said is the truth. Why did we come? Well, the Twin Horns World is too small. After all, that is simply a piece of space. Although we call it a world, in fact, it is the remains of a space created by a lord. Therefore, as the energy of that space started drying out, the living space there started shrinking as well. Everyone has no choice but to think of a way to leave there.
"How's the strength? Our strength there is very weak. Only the most outstanding of our soldiers are able to awaken. The ordinary people can only reach the peak of the unawakened realm, unlike your world…"
The captain sighed deeply, evidently ashamed by how weak the Twin Horns World was despite all these years of development. "There's really no helping it. The resources on the Twin Horns World are too low in amount and can only support so many people. If we had too many awakened ones, the speed at which our world dried up would probably increase."
…
At a different location, the Genetic Union president, Research Agency, and the higher-ups of the Gene Production Association were listening in to the questioning. As they heard this, they all sunk into silence, feeling as if they had just been slapped in the face.
Limited resources, my ass! Even with limited resources, you fellows are already so amazing. If you guys weren't limited by resources, perhaps you guys would even be able to reach the heavens?
"Around how many awakened ones do you guys have?" Chen Feng asked.
The twin-horns captain sighed shamefully. "Only around a hundred thousand."
Chen Feng: "…"
A hundred thousand…
The twin-horns captain had looked at the screen as he'd answered. Instantly, the president and the rest trembled. The threat of this twin-horns race was much larger than they had imagined. Such a terrifying race…
Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. "How did you guys arrive here?"
"How? We have no idea. Our research into space was stuck for a long time. The other day, we accidentally received a distress signal. Surprisingly, after inputting the coordinates, we truly arrived on this planet. I am only the vanguard. These are the only things I know." The captain put forth his guess: "I suspect that this distress signal was sent by some awakened human that encountered some misfortune."
Human awakened…
Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. The twin-horns members' guess was rather logical. However, they were wrong, as in fact, there were no other awakened humans. Beyond the newbie awakened Chen Feng, there was no second awakened one. Had it been Duma? Not possible. Based on what Qin Hai had said, Duma had been spending his time recovering these days. He claimed that turtle meat was nutritious and had been cooking and resurrecting the little turtle without stop these days.
If so, he shouldn't have the extra time to do something like this. Who had it been, then? Chen Feng sank into contemplation. Chen Feng pondered. Perhaps this was the work of that damnable pink power? Apart from him and Duma, the pink power was probably the only one capable of this. At present, Xie Zhongtong was the pink power.
Chen Feng contemplated. "Looks like I have to start paying more attention to her."
"You seem to be answering everything we ask?" Li Lei said with a smile.
"That is natural," the captain answered. "As long as it is something I know, I will cooperate earnestly. In actual fact, we are merely looking for a place we can live peacefully. We never intended to wage war on humans."
"Is that so?" Chen Feng asked with a faint smile. Peace my ass. If we hadn't discovered this fast enough, we would have been eliminated by the twin-horns race before even realizing what was happening.
The captain laughed dryly. "Of course! Your world is a high-tier martial world, while we, the insignificant twin-horns race, are merely from a minor world with a low-tier martial level. We would not dare to even dream such ridiculous dreams!"
…
Chen Feng and the rest sunk into silence.
High-tier martial…
Low-tier martial…
Chen Feng's eyes shone as he felt like he was on to something here.
"Have the twin-horns race truly built a connection with this planet?" Chen Feng asked with a serious expression.
Suddenly, the captain paled. "No! Absolutely not!"
"Oh?" Chen Feng's gaze became sharp.
"Really, there's no connection!" the captain swore. "We only had a unidirectional connection. That is why we were sent to first reconnoiter this planet. After your surprise attack, I transmitted a message back before destroying the connection."
Chen Feng was stunned. "You destroyed the connection?"
The captain smiled bitterly. "Yes."
Interesting…
Chen Feng was now sure that he had guessed correctly, and he pushed on. "In that case, how should one enter the Twin Horns World?"
The captain shook his head. "…That is not possible. All possible routes have been sealed off."
"I have one more question." Chen Feng smiled faintly. "What if we were to send some coordinates to them to lure them over, just like how you guys arrived in the first place."
Shua!
The captain's body chilled. However, as he thought of what he had done earlier, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, "No, that's not possible. Even if you guys were to send coordinates over, they would not come. Before I was taken away by you guys, I already sent a message to them. They are already clear on the strength of humans. At the very least, they will absolutely not come before they have surpassed humans in strength." The captain looked at Chen Feng. "You should just give up on this."
He felt like this fellow called Chen Feng was the most terrifying of all. He was strong, and his schemes were deep as well. He was actually thinking of using such a method to lure the people of the Twin Horns World? This was too excessive! His "How did you guys arrive" question earlier had totally been a trap! That had simply been a test to see if the captain had been speaking the truth. The captain was absolutely certain that the coordinates they had received had been sent by Chen Feng. That had to be the case.
"Anything else you ask, I will answer to the best of my ability. As for entering the Twin Horns World…" The captain shook his head resolutely. "That is not possible. I reckon they severed all connections the moment they received the message I sent. You have no way of locating them anymore."
Chen Feng smiled. "Is that so?"
Di—
His wristband buzzed.
The investigation result was being transmitted to him by the Research Agency. "We have indeed discovered traces of the transmittance of something there. However, everything seems to have been destroyed already…"
"Got it."
Finally, this burden was lifted from Chen Feng's heart.
The captain was overjoyed as well. "You all have no chance of finding our world." Excellent, those guys had indeed received his message.
"I know." There were no changes in Chen Feng's expression.
"Ours is but a small world where life is hard. It is nothing but a crippled world. Why must you guys insist on destroying our world?" The captain smiled bitterly and spoke cautiously. "As the ruler of this huge world, I believe you guys do not even care about the tiny bit of resources we have. So long as you do not do anything that will compromise our world, I will cooperate in whatever way you want me to."
Chen Feng's eyes shone. "Is that so?"
The captain nodded solemnly. "Yes." For the future of the Twin Horns World, he was willing to sacrifice everything. Moreover, he had once studied the cultures of numerous alien worlds. He was sure that as someone from a low-tier martial world, he was nothing in a high-tier martial world like this, let alone when he was but a mere prisoner.
As such, he absolutely had to express his willingness to submit, then wait for a chance…
He believed that a day would come when the twin-horns race would descend upon this world! When that lord woke up, he would come with his comrades. At that time, the Twin Horns World would be able to dominate this world!
"Good." Chen Feng was pleased with this captain's performance thus far. "Well then, eat this thing first." Chen Feng gave him several bottles of gene reagents. "You are still too weak, not even worth studying. Eat these and increase your strength so you can be qualified to be our test subject."
The captain smiled bitterly. "All right." Even with his strength, he was still too weak to even serve as a test subject? Well, that was understandable. After all, this was a high-tier martial world.
Gulp.
He poured the gene reagents down his throat. He had no idea what they were. However, amazingly, he could feel his strength rising after consuming them. It was a tiny improvement, however…
He was endlessly amazed. "One can actually improve in strength this way?"
Even back on the Twin Horns World, his strength had been stuck for a very long time. Yet here on the human world, with a mere gene reagent, his strength had increased. This was truly too terrifying!
"Not bad." Chen Feng was very satisfied with his performance. "We can supply you this thing without limit. Increase your strength until you can no longer increase it first. Afterward, we will give you even higher-tier things to use."
"All right." The captain was happy. In any case, increasing one's strength was something joyous. And thus, in this lowest floor of the Research Agency, the place where the security was the strictest, in the laboratory jointly constructed by Chen Feng and Duma, the twin-horns captain started increasing his strength rapidly.
Gulp!
Gulp!
Numerous gene reagents were poured down his throat. His strength increased without stop. Each bottle of gene reagent only granted a minute increase. However, with the huge amount of gene reagents supplied, his progress was still great. Around him was nothing but an area of white. This so-called laboratory was in fact something constructed with the twin-horns arena as a reference. As such, he wasn't unfamiliar with this environment.
This was evidently the work of Chen Feng. Even as a prisoner, the captain wasn't mistreated. Rather, he was given good food and drinks, and lots of mysterious entertainment was provided without limit. TV shows, movies, games, everything was provided. He only needed to contribute some of this blood essence or contribute his body for them to study occasionally.
The generosity of humans indeed surprised him. Worthy of being inhabitants of a high-tier world! The captain was melancholic. Perhaps, in the eyes of these humans, their tiny world was nothing. This was the bearing of a high-tier world! Humans were truly amazing! This was all the captain thought. His good life continued until one day when he realized that his breasts were getting more and more plump. Only at this point did he start noticing that something did not seem right.

Chapter 649: Research Result
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Research Agency.
Chen Feng was looking at the latest recordings. Feminization. This had been Chen Feng's initial goal. After what had happened to the ancients, he was now certain that after the target was feminized, their state of mind would change slowly as well. After the transformation, the target would be much easier to interact with. At the very least, if they maintained their rationality, it would be too easy for them to see through the humans' true strength.
Therefore, transforming them into females and then locking them in the laboratory forever to serve as test subjects, squeezing information about the twin-horns race from them, was the most apt course of action. From the latest recordings, it seemed like this was a feasible plan. At the very least, the feminization gene reagent was effective even on the awakened twin-horns race members.
"How's the status of the target?" Chen Feng asked.
"At first, the target was very shocked and couldn't accept it. However, after a period of time, the target was able to calm down and is now handling it better," the staffer replied.
"Has he ever doubted the gene reagent?" Chen Feng asked.
The staffer shook his head. "No. We have been feigning innocence and have even asked him if the changes are due to his body being not acclimatized to this planet. We asked if the target was feeling any unusual emotions…" At this, an odd expression appeared on the staffer's face. "Initially, we only wanted to mislead the target and erase their doubt. Unexpectedly, the counterparty is truly feeling an unusual set of emotions. As such, we played along and led him along…"
"Huh?" Chen Feng was astonished. There was a surprise harvest?
"This was what happened." The staffer explained in detail. "When we asked if he was feeling an unusual set of emotions, he said frankly that he had been crying frequently recently. Since he was rather interested in the entertainment of humans, he had been watching a lot of TV shows recently as well. A short while ago, he had even been completely hooked on some soap opera."
Chen Feng was dumbstruck. "Soa... soap opera?"
"Yes. In one shot, he watched 72 episodes of a soap opera where the male lead suffered from an accident and the female lead suffered from cancer, 38 episodes of soap operas where the male lead and female lead find out they are actually biological siblings, and around 30 episodes of soap operas with storylines featuring tragic memory loss. He cried rivers of tears while watching. He said that it seemed like his emotions started losing control from that point onward," the staffer finished with a cold expression.
Chen Feng: "…"
Holy shit, soap operas could be used in such a manner?
"Next, we told him that this might be a normal side effect of an alien life-form arriving on an alien world. Since we have never encountered an alien life-form, we requested his cooperation and told him that such soap operas are something generally only watched by human females. If one watched too many of them, one might suffer from some side effects…" the staffer said with a serious expression.
"Next?" Chen Feng asked.
The staffer had a flat expression. "He believed everything we said."
Chen Feng: ...This works?
"Therefore, recently, when we are working on him, he has been cooperating fully. Moreover, he has also requested some male TV shows filled with masculinity, or perhaps some such movies," the staffer stated honestly. "Next, we recommended to him some of the hottest male movies of this year: War Dogs 2, Fast and Furious 8, and so on." [1] 1
Chen Feng: "…"
This was quite a refined method of operation.
The staffer continued, "In short, the target has stabilized. These days, he is completely hooked up with these soap operas and movies. Occasionally, he will tell us something about the Twin Horns World. Although he only mentions them briefly, we can gather and rearrange everything into a proper data set."
"How about that world's strength system?" Chen Feng asked. For him, the most important thing was the system the Twin Horns World used to classify different strength levels. At present, apart from mentioning that they had several tens of thousands of awakened ones, there wasn't anything else.
The staffer shook his head. "We are still unclear about that. Every time we touched on this topic, he didn't say much. However, we believe that as time passes, he will tell us about it. A few days ago, we even got Miss Tianyu Liming to placate him. After all, they are all ex-males… As such, they should have common topics to talk about." The staffer coughed before continuing, "At present, the two are already as close as sisters and talk about everything. I think it won't be long before he spills everything."
Chen Feng was astonished. "The president is fine with this?"
"Oh, I think so," the staffer said after thinking about it.
Chen Feng: "…"
Being so magnanimous, he was truly worthy of being the president. However, as Chen Feng pondered the matter, it was rather understandable that the president was fine with this. After all, both Tianyu Liming and the target had had their gender changed, and under the full monitoring here, they couldn't do anything they were not supposed to anyway.
Chen Feng pondered the matter and said, "I suppose it's fine that way. I will let you guys handle the matters here, then. Get him to spill everything in the shortest time possible, especially the strength system of the Twin Horns World."
The staffer nodded. "Understood."
"How's the progress on the research of the twin-horns body?" Chen Feng asked. The physical body of a twin-horns member was also a rather rich harvest for them.
"We are almost done with that," the staffer replied. The study of their bodies, blood, energy, everything had been finished. The only thing that posed a problem so far was those horns.
"The twin-horns race seems completely the same as humans apart from their horns. At present, we have yet to discover the usage of those horns. Every time we ask this question, that fellow is unwilling to talk. I think we need more time."
Chen Feng frowned. "Nothing has been discovered?"
The staffer reported things thoroughly. "Nope. The target's strength does not seem to correlate to the horns, yet he still regards them with utmost importance. As such, even now, we still don't know the reason for that… After our tests, we found that the horns occasionally release an undulation at a certain frequency."
This was everything they had on the horns.
Frequency…
Undulation…
Hold on, could this be a signal? Chen Feng's expression darkened. Wasn't this totally Teletubbies, then?
Chen Feng kneaded his head. "Continue the tests." He refused to believe that those horns were merely there for decoration. "We must figure out everything about them. Although they will temporarily stop coming to this world, it is still only a matter of time before they eventually come," Chen Feng stated. "The mysterious person who transmitted the coordinates to them, figuring out whether what this captain told us the truth or not... All of these are things we must consider thoroughly."
"Understood," the staffer answered with a solemn expression. He was clear just how important his task was.
Chen Feng nodded. "Good." The people of the Research Agency were rather unscrupulous when doing their job. With this, it wouldn't be long before the target fully integrated with humans.
"Unfortunately, we did not get the coordinates of the Twin Horns World." Chen Feng felt somewhat regretful. "If we had their coordinate, we could airdrop countless feminization gene reagents there. I suppose that after several decades, we would be victorious over them without fighting a single battle."
The staffer: "…"
This Chen Feng seemed so very well practiced with such acts of genocide. After leaving the Research Agency, Chen Feng went over to the Genetic Union to get some updates. With astonishment, he found that the coordinates sent to the twin-horns race were unrelated to Xie Zhongtong at all.
"Miss Xie has been under our monitoring. At present, she is completely infatuated with the mass 'assembly' she's in and hasn't done anything else. Everything she has done has already been recorded. If you are interested, you can take a look any time you want. We have ensured that she never leaves our monitoring."
This was the report received by Chen Feng. They were extremely loyal. But then, for an unknown reason, they seemed rather pale and weakened nowadays…
As for the recordings, Chen Feng had no interest. He reckoned they only needed to slap a code on those videos and they would be good to go to be sold as porno. He had no intention of suffering Han Yula's wrath in the future. Mhm…
"Continue the monitoring," Chen Feng ordered.
The two beyond A classes happily agreed to this task. "Yes!"
"Looks like it's not Xie Zhongtong." Chen Feng sank into contemplation. It wasn't Duma, nor was it Xie Zhongtong. Who could it be? Had some mysterious primordial power appeared recently? Or perhaps… Chen Feng shut his eyes. "I will know after taking a look."
Hum—
A faint undulation spread out.
In Chen Feng's eyes, the entire world seemed to have changed color. He had activated the ability used to search for primordial powers. However, he found that after searching the entire world, only that astonishing pink could be found.
Nothing else?
He shook his head. Just as he was about to exit this state, suddenly, numerous formidable auras surged out from this illusory world. Next, the primordial auras erupted.
"This…" Chen Feng's eyes widened. The pink seemed to have dimmed, and the formidable auras that had appeared flickered with seven colors before engulfing the entire world. This wasn't any singular aura. Rather, it was a combination of a number of powerful primordial auras.
"That place…" Chen Feng gazed in that direction. Ultimately, something had still happened there!

Chapter 650: Primordial Items
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
In a certain desolate frontier, a group of people in white uniforms were solemnly waiting for something. Soon, a fully armed armored car slowly hovered over.
They went forth to welcome the arrival of the armored car. "You guys have worked hard." Within the car, an item contained in a transparent glass case was taken out. This item shone with a faint gold glimmer, was very small and seemed like a broken part of a much larger item.
"Has it been recorded?"
"Mhm."
"Be more careful."
"Understood."
They put the item on a floating piece of equipment, trying to maintain its balance so the item would not fall.
"Unknown energy."
"Unknown type."
"Unable to analyze."
"With our present technology level, it is not recommended to study this thing. I propose we seal it away."
The newcomer passed on the report.
The person in a white uniform nodded. "Understood." He turned on the screen and scanned the data to input it into the storage before carefully pushing the floating piece of equipment behind him.
Hum—
The floating piece of equipment gently floated on. Carrying that item, it left unhurriedly, floating toward a distant town. Along the way, all the staffers looked around as that floating piece of equipment safely entered the depths of the town. There, countless similar items were stored.
"Item number 2014," the ice-cold voice of the system resounded, "registration complete, input complete."
They heaved a sigh of relief. "Done." Finally, yet another item had been safely sealed away. Not long ago, the appearance of that pink thing had horrified them greatly. Through that, they had gained a clear understanding of how scary the sealed items here could be, even if they were mere fragments and none of them were in their complete form.
Their job involved delivering these items here to be sealed away, awaiting the day when humans reached a high enough level to study these things to come and revisit them. However, unknown to them, that fragment they had just delivered into the town did not stop after reaching the depths of the town. Rather, it continued on, seemingly being attracted by some power.
The floating piece of equipment that should have stopped moving continued on in a certain direction. Distantly, a faint radiance glimmered, shining upon the Mysterious Town.
Hum—
Hum—
In the depths of the town, something seemed to be trembling.
Shua! Shua!
The floating piece of equipment stopped gradually as it reached where the light was shining. There, an even larger item was flickering with light. It could be seen that on a certain corner of this item, a small chip had been broken off, causing it to appear rather incomplete. This missing part seemed completely in harmony with the newly entered fragment.
Hum—
Slowly, the two items approached each other.
Ka!
With a crisp sound, the two faint golden items combined together, not leaving even a crack behind, as if they had always been a single entity.
Shua!
The item shone with gold. As the two combined, an astonishing aura erupted.
Bang! Bang!
The terrifying gold engulfed the entire town.
Countless people there were alarmed. "What's up?" With a gaze of disbelief, they looked toward the town that had been silent for so many years, not knowing what was happening inside.
What's happening?
Bang!
Instantly, a primordial power erupted. The mighty power engulfed and shook the entire town. With the appearance of this aura, the numerous astonishing powers that had been slumbering within the town all appeared together at the same time. These powers were all… primordial powers!
Bang!
One!
Bang!
Two!
Bang!
…
The heavens and earth seemed to be changing colors at the appearance of these primordial powers.
In a short instant, the lights of Mysterious Town flooded the sky, erupting with numerous colors, shining upon the entire world.
Something had happened at Mysterious Town!
…
At this time, the Genetic Union, the Research Agency... everyone that had sensed this set off immediately. Alas, when they arrived, it was already too late. Mysterious Town could no longer be seen. Where Mysterious Town used to be, only a boundless radiance could be seen. Radiances of a multitude of colors filled their entire vision.
"Let me." Someone tried entering. However, before he could even approach, his body trembled and he collapsed to the ground.
"Bombard it!"
The Research Agency deployed their bombers.
Alas… it was ineffective as well.
The dense multicolored radiance seemed capable of resisting all attacks, causing everyone that wanted to attack or enter the town to be helpless. This place had completely fallen to the unknown enemy. Helpless, the Genetic Union could only surround this place, unable to do anything else.
"Damn it!"
"What happened?"
"No idea. I think it is related to the fragment we sent in today."
"Did we not confirm that the fragment posed no threat and was the broken part of some item? How could it cause this?"
The staffer smiled bitterly. "It was indeed a broken part. However… From the final recorded data of the now-destroyed recorder, we saw that the fragment combined with a certain item within the town."
"You mean…"
"That's right. The item we just sent inside was the broken part of a certain item that we discovered a long time ago. After combining together, the primordial item seemed to awaken…"
"Hiss—"
As they heard this, they inhaled deeply in shock. Primordial item… awaken…
Suddenly, they recalled the pink-power incident. Would the Land of Legacy incident replay itself here?
"Retreat! Leave this place immediately! Lock down everything 50 kilometers around this place. Do not allow anyone to enter."
"Understood."
Shua!
The Research Agency acted quickly.
With the ancients' Land of Legacy serving as an example, the staffers here made the smart choice and withdrew their forces immediately, then observed from a distance. When Chen Feng arrived, this was what he saw.
"Everyone has already withdrawn."
"Within a distance of 50 kilometers, there is only this single town. Nobody else had been affected. In Mysterious Town, there is only a single complete primordial item. All other items are purely fragments. After the withdrawal of the main group, we tried numerous methods yet were unable to enter," the staffer reported with fear still lingering in his heart.
Chen Feng gazed at the town. Is that so?
Hum—
Around the town, a faint radiance shimmered. Everyone that tried to enter was repelled.
Shua!
Chen Feng waved his hand. An illusory shadow flashed forth and swirled around before easily entering Mysterious Town.
"Huh?" The staffers were somewhat dumbstruck as they saw this.
Just like that?
It seems like the repelling force of the town is ineffective against awakened ones, Chen Feng realized. As such, this would be much easier to deal with. He had long wanted to enter this town and have a look at the primordial items within. The pink power had only become so powerful because its growth had gone unchecked for too long. As for this primordial item, it had only recently awoken. Perhaps this would be a good chance for him.
Shua!
Chen Feng's figure flashed forth as he entered Mysterious Town. Within the town, numerous colors swirled around. Each of the colors seemed to contain a primordial item blossoming with a charm unique to itself.
Each color occupied its respective region. Although all these primordial items had awoken, it seemed like they repelled each other as well, causing this Mysterious Town to be split into numerous portions. Chen Feng had arrived at the region that used to be the town's entrance, a region of blue.
"The first primordial item at the entrance?"
Chen Feng braced himself for what was to come. However, when he entered, his expression changed greatly as the blue radiance suddenly shone intensely, then erupted with a dreadful force.
Bang!
The intense blue radiance surged forth like a tidal wave, instantly submerging Chen Feng.

Chapter 651: Chaos Is Coming
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
At the Land of Legacy.
Duma gazed in the direction of Mysterious Town. "Chen Feng already went over?"
Qin Hai nodded. "Mhm." The sudden change at Mysterious Town was incredibly suspicious. At a glance, it appeared like some coincidence where a random fragment delivered there turned out to be a broken piece of a certain primordial item discovered countless years ago. As it had been discovered before the era of computers, that item hadn't been recorded and nobody had realized this, resulting in this accidental reunion. However, if one gave it some serious thought, was that truly the case?
A primordial fragment… Why were these things called fragments? That was because they were already broken! That war had been too long ago, so long ago that it had practically vanished from history. All the broken primordial items had transformed into countless fragments and disappeared amid the long annals of history. Even the small amount of tiny fragments that had been discovered thus far had all merely been flukes.
A single primordial item could very well be comprised of hundreds or even thousands of fragments. These were what were normally discovered nowadays. Yet for this particular primordial item, only two parts had been required for the item to become whole again? No, that was not supposed to be possible. It would be reasonable for a primordial item to require several hundreds of fragments before it could be whole again.
Yet discovering such an amount of fragments alone was an impossibility, as most of these fragments had vanished in the truest sense. That was the case for most primordial items contained in Mysterious Town. Yet now… a mere two fragments had made a primordial item whole. Even more coincidental was the fact that this involved a primordial item that had been discovered before the era of computers, before data had been recorded in computerized databases.
What a coincidence!
In any case, Duma refused to believe that such coincidence existed. That was why this incident had to be investigated. Perhaps there was a culprit behind this. For example… the fellow who had lured the twin-horns race over. This fact alone made it a must for them to investigate this thoroughly.
Duma shook his head. "He's too rash." There were no problems with Chen Feng's investigations. The real problem was the fact that the location of this incident was that Mysterious Town! Duma had previous experience handling primordial items. As such, he was clear on how terrifying these items were. Regardless of whether there was a third awakened one lurking around, so long as it was something happening at that town, things would never be simple.
"Chen Feng alone won't do. You guys go give him help," Duma said.
"Only awakened ones can enter that place," Qin Hai said with a bitter smile. Unawakened ones couldn't even approach that place.
Duma frowned. "Is that so… Let me think of something."
…
At this time, in Mysterious Town, Chen Feng, who had just entered, felt only an intense brightness before him.
Blue.
Endless blue.
Chen Feng was astonished. "Where is this place?"
Bang!
The illusory blue started solidifying. The world before him slowly became distinct. This was actually a beach that was incredibly beautiful. Countless turtles were playing about, having the time of their lives.
What is this place?
Chen Feng felt doubtful. He tried walking forth but noticed that he couldn't walk around. He couldn't control his body and could only watch on with his eyes wide open.
Shua!
A turtle passed through his body, not obstructed by his presence at all.
Chen Feng contemplated. I have transformed into a projection? Or perhaps… this world was the actual projection. He did not belong to this world. As such, he couldn't see any other things.
Mhm…
Chen Feng looked over. On this beautiful beach, apart from the turtles, there was a hut as well. Surprisingly, there on the hut, two people stood.
Chen Feng's heart jolted. Humans?
Shua!
Light swirled around. Instantly, he appeared up there as well. There, by the table, an old man and a young woman were seated. Similarly, these two seemed completely unaware of Chen Feng's presence.
"These children…" The old man looked at the little turtles with a kindly expression. "I wonder when will they be able to grasp the technique for transforming into a humanoid shape."
The young woman by his side spoke gently. "Don't worry. We can take our time. Humanoid transformation also signifies that they have reached adulthood, officially entering this world. I truly don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. We didn't enjoy a childhood back then. Hopefully, these children can enjoy a good childhood and live fulfilling lives."
The old man shook his head. "How could things be so easy? These two days, abnormalities have appeared without stop. I feel like great chaos will descend soon. I wonder if our scarab race can survive this…"
Chen Feng's heart jolted. Scarab! Could this be…
"In the annals of history, there have been numerous chaotic times. Which of those did our race fail to survive?" the woman said with a smile.
"No, this is different," the old man muttered. "It's different this time."
Next, he shook his head. Even if he told her, she wouldn't understand.
The old man changed the topic. "Is Chen Er not back yet?"
"Mm." The woman's expression dimmed. "It has been three years since he last came back."
"Three years… Well, he is, after all, the chief of our scarab race. It is inevitable that he has to work hard." The old man sighed as he looked at her belly. "This child, it has been three months, right?"
A content smile appeared on her face as the woman rubbed her belly. "Mhm…" Although her husband, Yu Xian Chen, was not here most of the time, she was lucky enough to be pregnant, to have this child accompanying her.
Chen Feng: "…"
Three years…
Three months…
Chen Feng felt like the math did not seem right here. But then, after thinking about it, he realized that he had indeed been thinking too much. After all, this was the scarab race. From his memories, fertilization would indeed take years for some turtle species. Since the scarab race was essentially a race of turtles as well, perhaps they might require 100 years of fertilization.
Mhm, that must be the case.
Chen Feng rearranged his thoughts and continued watching on.
"Let me take a look." The old man placed his hand before the woman.
Hum—
A faint radiance flashed.
Suddenly, the old man's eyes gleamed as a shocked expression appeared on his face. He retracted his hand and looked at the woman. "This is…"
The woman blanked. "What's up?"
The old man's expression dimmed. "The child…"
"What happened to my child?" the woman asked anxiously. "What happened?"
"The child is fine." The old man trembled and sighed. "However the child's entire body is enveloped in gold and shines with unusual radiance. There is a faint resonance with the aura of the Saintly Ancestor…"
The woman's eyes widened abruptly. This characteristic… Could it be…
The old man sighed. "That's right. This child is the future Duma! The future leader of our scarab race!"
Bang!
The woman's heart jolted.
Duma… had appeared once again! However, her husband was clearly the present Duma. Why…
Plop.
She collapsed weakly to the ground. In the scarab race, at any given time, only a single Duma could exist. Only when the present Duma died would that unique and powerful aura return to their race to be reincarnated once again.
In short, Yu Xian Chen had…
The lady knelt on the ground, weeping bitter tears.
The old man sighed.
Something had indeed happened. Including the scarabs, the leaders of several races had encountered misfortune. This was a bad omen. It seemed like a dreadful calamity was on the verge of erupting.
The old man sighed. "Something still happened in the end." As he was about to comfort the woman, suddenly, his expression changed. He seemed to have seen something terrifying, as he left immediately, leaving only a single sentence behind.
"Take good care of the children."
On the beach, the group of adorable little turtles was still playing around without any worries. The breeze brushed past, and the blue sky above the beach seemed even deeper now.

Chapter 652: Soul Entering the Primordial Era
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Mysterious Town.
Within the town of numerous radiances, each color occupied a certain region. Suddenly, a cold radiance streaked toward a certain area. Filled with killing intent, the formidable power pierced directly into the primordial item.
Ka! Ka!
A crisp shattering sound echoed. A huge primordial item was about to burst apart. However, despite the numerous attacks against it, the primordial item still maintained its original appearance. It flickered with a faint blue, even when its entire body was filled with cracks.
…
Hum—
A faint radiance flashed past.
As the old man left, Chen Feng felt like the world before him was turning more lifelike. The gentle breeze brushed past his face, and the fishy smell of the ocean lingered in his nose. Everything appeared clearer.
Chen Feng felt doubtful. This…
"You, who are you?" The woman who had been weeping earlier was looking at Chen Feng in alarm.
Chen Feng was astonished. "You can see me?"
"Yes, I can. You, who are you?" The woman was afraid. She could sense that this person didn't have the aura of the scarab race about him. How had this person arrived here? One ought to know that this was the scarab race's forbidden ground. Could it be that something bad had indeed happened to the scarab race? She recalled the scene earlier where the old man abruptly left. Her heart chilled as she wondered if their enemies had indeed entered even their forbidden ground.
"You can even understand what I'm saying?" Chen Feng was even more astonished. Based on what Duma had said, the language of the scarab race was absolutely different from the language of the Genetic Era. However, what Chen Feng saw and heard was all in a single language. This was truly quite wondrous. He wondered if this was an illusion. He had seen and experienced countless illusions. None of them had ever been so lifelike. This lifelikeness didn't refer to the people in the illusion. Rather, it referred to how harmonious the illusory world seemed. This was a rather odd feeling.
Chen Feng became suspicious. Perhaps… this is an illusion released by an awakened?
Shua!
A cold gleam flashed past.
He tried to lock his senses on to this woman, yet right at this instant, he felt his mind tremble and the memories in his brain start to sway about. All the memories regarding Duma were about to vanish. All his memories about the Genetic Era started becoming blurry as well.
This…
Chen Feng's pupils shrunk abruptly. He retracted his killing intent, which had been directed to that woman earlier. Only then did his memories stabilize.
Hiss—
He took in a deep breath. Suddenly, a realization dawned upon him. This was no illusion. Rather, this was the real world. The present young woman was indeed the mother of the future Duma. Earlier, Chen Feng had intended to kill her. If so, Duma would have disappeared. As such, the memories of Duma had started becoming blurry. Without Duma, there would have been no one dealing with the awakened primordial powers in secret. Without that, the world would not have been so peaceful, thus resulting in the change of his memories regarding the Genetic Era…
Chen Feng was startled. In short, everything before him was real! The scarab race and this woman, they were all real!
Chen Feng was shaken. "I have actually returned to the Primordial Era."
That Mysterious Town contained numerous abilities within. Each primordial item was incredibly powerful. As such, Chen Feng had been extremely cautious when he'd entered. Unexpectedly, just as he'd entered, he had already fallen victim to one of the powers. He hadn't been able to resist it at all. After being enveloped by that blue radiance, he had been directly sent back in time.
"Spirit?" Chen Feng tried asking. No reply came. His question to Spirit was akin to throwing stones to the sea.
Chen Feng frowned. "Spirit didn't return with me?"
That shouldn't be possible. Since Spirit was a consciousness birthed by him, she should follow him at all times. How had she gone missing suddenly? Chen Feng wasn't used to the lack of Spirit's assistance.
However, with astonishment, he found that his Luck Aura could once again be used, and 9,999 luck value was waiting for him. This was a terrifying amount.
"Has it returned to its state prior to the upgrade due to time travel? No, this doesn't seem to be the case. How many years ago have I returned to?"
Chen Feng felt his thought process become sluggish.
The sudden disappearance of Spirit, the sudden appearance of Luck Aura, everything seemed related to this mysterious Primordial Era. However, he couldn't figure out the truth.
"Is this the power of a primordial item?"
Chen Feng felt a lingering fear. He found that he had still ultimately underestimated the strength of primordial items. Regardless of whether it was his Luck Aura or his time travel, both were pointing at how terrifying primordial powers could be.
"No, don't kill me." The woman trembled and looked at Chen Feng. "My child will be born very soon. I can't let him die here."
Chen Feng looked at her and smiled bitterly. Can't die here? That's certain. If something were to happen to her…
Bang!
A loud boom resounded in the distance. A terrifying power erupted, engulfing the entire world. Distantly, the entirety of the huge mountain belonging to the scarab race started collapsing.
Something has indeed happened!
Chen Feng's heart thumped. He recalled the history Duma had told him, and understanding dawned upon him. Perhaps this was the moment when the scarab race encountered that disaster. As for the woman here, Duma's mother, she had escaped at this instant and eventually gave birth to Duma, making him the only descendant of the scarab race.
So that was the case.
Finally, Chen Feng gained some sort of understanding amid all the confusion. How had this woman escaped? Chen Feng looked toward the surging aura before looking at this weak woman that seemed incapable of escaping. He could not imagine that this woman would actually be able to escape. Suddenly, he laughed helplessly.
In short, the one protecting Duma's mother while she escaped had actually been Chen Feng?
Chen Feng was shocked. "What happened, exactly?" He was sure that the one who was supposed to protect this woman in her retreat wasn't supposed to be him. Analyzing what he knew so far, that person should have been the old man earlier.
At the crucial moment, the old man had left. Moreover, right after his departure, something had happened. This was way too odd. As for Chen Feng… he had actually appeared here coincidentally.
"Something must have happened." Chen Feng was sure. However, no matter what, he knew that he couldn't allow any mishaps to happen to this woman, regardless of whether it was for the sake of Duma or the stability of the future human world.
Truthfully, Chen Feng had always maintained a certain level of doubt with regard to Duma's task of "protecting world peace" and "defending the world in the dark." He had merely spared Duma's life since he had seen that Duma had lost his combat power and wouldn't be able to recover anytime soon. However, from the way his memories acted here, he was certain that what Duma had told him was true.
As such, no matter what, he had to preserve Duma's life. At present, the woman was thoroughly dumbstruck. The sudden appearance of an enemy and then the collapse of the mountain symbolizing the scarab race told her that a calamity had descended upon the scarab race.
The woman slumped weakly to the ground. "It's over."
Chen Feng looked at her and asked, "Do you want to survive?"
The woman raised her head abruptly, her eyes shining.
"Do you want your child to survive?" Chen Feng asked seriously. "If your answer is yes, follow me."
A tinge of color reappeared in the woman's dim expression.
Bang!
The distant booming sound echoed without stop as Chen Feng led the woman and left in a certain direction. The collapsing mountain had blocked all escape routes. As such, going this way was their only hope.
"These children…"
She looked at the little turtles that were panicking on the beach.
Chen Feng shook his head and sighed. "We can't take them along. Even if it's you alone, I do not have confidence in getting you out alive."
The woman sunk into silence.
She was not the holy mother. As such, during such a crucial moment, she knew what her priority should be. Her child, the future Duma, was the single most important person.
Bang! Bang!
The distant booming sound approached them. Chen Feng and the woman arrived before the collapsing mountain.
"It's a dead end here," the woman said.
"I know." Chen Feng inhaled deeply. "As such, the enemy will never expect to find us here."
Shua!
He raised his hand slightly.
Myriad Illusions!

Chapter 653: Primordial Era? No Big Deal
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Open!
Before Chen Feng's eyes, a cave appeared. With the woman, Chen Feng entered the cave. Next, the entrance closed behind them without a sound. The earth opened up a path before them. Chen Feng and the woman advanced, blending together with the earth. This was the power of Myriad Illusions, the ability capable of everything! When used by Chen Feng with his awakened strength, this ability was even more terrifying.
"It had been a very long time since I last used this ability." Chen Feng was filled with melancholy. Ever since his Luck Aura had gone dormant, he hadn't used Myriad Illusions. This ability contained countless abilities. Apart from the brain-dead method of allowing it to erupt as it wished, only Luck Aura could help Myriad Illusions reach its potential. Otherwise, the user would forever be unable to guess the next ability that Myriad Illusions would release.
"Splendid."
Chen Feng clenched his fists. "Let's go." He looked at the woman. "If the enemies are truly planning to eliminate the scarab race, they will not allow anyone to escape. They will notice you sooner or later. Therefore, we must leave as soon as possible."
The woman nodded. "Mhm."
Shua!
Myriad Illusions, activate.
Bringing her along, Chen Feng streaked forth underground, quickly leaving this place. As for the hut they had been at earlier, unsurprisingly, the enemies had destroyed everything there. With their powerful strength, they had killed all the turtles there.
On the beach, numerous turtles were sprawled everywhere with their bellies facing upward as a dense smell of blood pervaded the air. A beast with an odd appearance appeared.
"Have all of them been killed?" He had the face of a ferocious tiger and the body of a human. His gaze swept past the beach, and he frowned. "Why am I still sensing someone alive?"
He sniffed at the empty air. Sniff—
"This annoying aura." His eyes gleamed coldly. "Indeed, there are still survivors. Confirm it for me immediately."
"Understood." The eyes of one of his underlings flashed, as if a myriad of worlds had just flashed before his eyes. He said, "Lord, based on my preliminary investigation, one particular corpse seems to be missing from the scarab race."
"Who is it?"
"The wife of their present Duma, someone called Xiao Wu. After marrying into this place, the scarab-race members only dare to call her Madam. As for her real full name, even our spies weren't able to find out."
"No real full name… Forget it, then. We can only chase after her," the tiger-faced man said coldly. "I believe everyone here has already experienced how terrifying the scarab race is. Since we have already destroyed their race, we must not allow any survivors."
"Understood," the rest answered, wearing solemn expressions.
For all the other races, the scarab race was akin to a dreadful nightmare. Even with only a single survivor, perhaps that single survivor might still be able to return and take revenge against all of them.
"Chase!"
Some of them with powerful detection abilities set off and started tracking the survivor. When they noticed that the survivor had already crossed over the mountain, they destroyed the entire mountain directly.
Bang!
A formidable power boomed. A tunnel was forcefully blasted through the mountain.
"Let's go."
Following the lingering aura in the air, they directly chased after their target, not stopping at all. Not a single thing seemed capable of stopping their advance.
Bang! Bang!
They advanced, leaving numerous booms in their path. At this time, Chen Feng and that woman had yet to get far away. As they heard the sounds, they were horrified. This was way too fast! If this continued, they would not be able to escape.
Shit.
Chen Feng felt his scalp going numb. The experts of the Primordial Era were truly somewhat excessive. Even though they were similarly awakened ones, Chen Feng felt like he would be insta-killed by these people. That feeling… is that the power of resonance? This won't do. Chen Feng tried creating some diversions with his Myriad Illusions, yet those people weren't even slowed. They were seemingly unaffected at all.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
All the diversions he set were instantly destroyed.
Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. This is getting troublesome… He had never felt like he could be these people's opponent. This was especially true for the current him, since he was lugging a burden around. Mhm… two burdens, to be precise. What to do?
Chen Feng looked at the despairing woman and pondered as the enemies neared them.
"Let's split up," Chen Feng said after taking in a deep breath.
The woman's eyes widened. Was she being abandoned?
Hu—
Chen Feng heaved out a long breath and ignored her. He cast his senses on the path she had walked and remembered the unique scarab aura she had left behind.
This feeling…
Shua! Shua!
Chen Feng activated Myriad Illusions with his hand. Next, several drops of energy dripped down before dissipating in the air. The newly dissipated aura was actually exactly the same as this woman's aura.
Shock appeared on that woman's face. "Huh?"
"With this, the aura will be correct…" Chen Feng pondered before saying, "Next is the body…"
Shua!
From Myriad Illusions, one particular ability was selected. Mhm… Chen Feng decided that this ability was usable. Next, his body started transforming, assuming the appearance of a woman.
He looked at the woman and started talking. When he talked, even his voice was no longer the same. "With this, there won't be any problems."
The woman was shocked. "Are you…"
Chen Feng sighed and said, "Let me lure them away. Leave quickly. At the very least, you must survive until the birth of this child, right? The future of the scarab race now lies on your shoulders."
"Many thanks," she said, gratitude filling her eyes. She was aware of the implication of what he had just done.
"Leave." Chen Feng sighed. Without hesitation, he strolled around the area, leaving a chaotic trail before fleeing in a different direction, carrying the aura of the scarab race on his body. Shortly after, the pursuers arrived. They blanked shortly after sensing the chaotic aura here. However, soon after, they found a familiar aura amid the chaos.
They all reached the same conclusion. "This way."
Shua!
Once again, the pursuers set forth.
The woods…
Underground…
Above the trees…
They felt like their target was fleeing everywhere like a monkey, bringing them great inconvenience as they chased after this target. Fortunately, they could feel that they were nearing their target. That woman would not be able to escape them.
Soon, after half a day, they finally laid their eyes on that person at the precipice of a certain waterful.
"Found you," the tiger-faced man said with a smile. Worthy of being Duma's wife indeed. Her strength was not low. If this had been a normal scarab-race member, they would have caught up long ago. Unfortunately, in the end, she would still have to die here.
Shua!
The group surrounded her cautiously. Previously, there had been several times when they'd almost caught her yet she had still been able to escape in an absurd manner. This time, they blocked all the escape routes in advance so as to prevent any mishaps from happening.
"Madam, you won't be able to escape this time," the tiger-faced man said.
"I know," a soft voice replied as the woman turned around. The tiger-faced man and his group were momentarily shocked when they saw the woman's face. They had never expected that the scarab race would look so very stunning after assuming a humanoid form.
"It is rumored that the scarab race is incredibly spiritual. By breathing in the spiritual essence of nature, they can assume a humanoid form. As such, they are all top-notch appearance-wise. I originally did not believe this, but now that I lay my eyes upon this madam, I find this rumor believable," the tiger-faced man lamented. The others around him agreed as well.
Chen Feng sneered. "Hehe." So it seemed like these primordial fellows were weak to women as well. It was truly unfortunate that Xie Zhongtong wasn't here. Otherwise, she alone would be sufficient to be the end of all these fellows.
"Hehe, if Madam is willing to accompany me… I might allow Madam to live two extra years," a fellow with an odd appearance said as he stood out.
Another fellow walked out. "Yeah. If Madam can serve us well, perhaps we can allow you to keep living."
"What are you guys doing?" the tiger-faced man rebuked.
They glanced at him. "What are you pretending for? Are you not clear yourself on the appearance of the females of your tiger race? Among the ten thousand primordial races, the one race with the greatest resemblance to those existences, the one race with the greatest spiritual nature, is the scarab race! Hehe, moreover, this woman is Duma's wife…"
"Even ignoring her appearance and figure, the spiritual aura about her body alone is…"
"There's also the aura of luck lingering about her…"
"Can you guys truly bear to give up on all this?" that person said with a perverted expression.
"Spiritual nature…" The tiger-faced man looked at the woman, his heart tempted. If he was able to interweave his fate with this woman's fate, perhaps he would truly be able to gain a fraction of her luck and spiritual nature. With that, his future would perhaps be much better! As they thought of this, all of them were tempted. They fixed their eyes full of greed on this woman. Some of them even started undressing.
A snake-like person took off his pants and walked toward the woman with a perverted expression on his face. "Here I come… hehe."
"Hehe." Chen Feng sneered inwardly at what he saw. The "length" of the primordial fellows did not seem that special after all. He had the urge to pull his "buddy" out of the skirt he was wearing to show these guys what it meant to be "blessed by the heavens."
Naturally, this was merely a monologue; Chen Feng did not pull his "buddy" out. If he truly did that, this would probably be the end of him. Regardless of how ridiculous these fellows seemed to be, they were still ultimately experts of the Primordial Era. Any random one of them could easily kill Chen Feng. This time, it wouldn't be that easy for Chen Feng to survive this.

Chapter 654: What Does It Mean to Be Humanoid?
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
At a certain location, a certain woman was fleeing hastily, cutting a sorry figure as she sped forth. Her face was pale as she ran with a huge belly. The elegance of the finest beauty of the scarab race was nowhere to be seen. Chen Feng had lured the enemies away for her. At present, she could only flee without stop, heading toward a location far away based on her memory. Alas, just as she was about to leave this area...
"Madam, where are you going?" a sinister voice resounded. Madam's expression changed greatly as she raised her head abruptly. On the tree trunk before her, a monkey-like fellow could be seen. He had an ugly appearance and presently had his eyes locked on her.
Madam's expression changed. Not good! She tried fleeing in a different direction, yet in a split second, that monkey reappeared in front of her again with the same sinister smile on his face.
"Madam, you won't be able to escape." The sinister voice caused Madam's entire body to chill.
Madam paled. "How is it possible for you to…" She recalled that the person from earlier had obviously lured everyone away.
The monkey sneered. "Hehe. Are you referring to those idiots? Indeed, I also saw those traces and also saw all of them chasing after that aura. However, none of them noticed that under the chaotic aura, an aura so feeble one couldn't miss it was hidden as well. Granted, that aura seemed like a diversion in and of itself. However, at that time, I asked myself, Why are there so many chaotic auras here? If the purpose was to confuse us, why is there such a clear aura trail after the chaos? That aura is way too clear, so clear that all the diversions seem pointless.
"That did not seem too logical. Thus, what was the point of the diversion? I thought about it for a long time. Perhaps those auras had all been left for the sake of hiding the real aura? Therefore, I discovered the weakest aura… Hehe." A proud smile appeared on the monkey's face. "If I followed after those bastards, even if we managed to locate Madam, there wouldn't have been anything left for me in any case. I figured I might as well follow this single trail by myself. The probability of my guess being correct was low. However, so long as I found you, Madam, I would profit greatly."
Madam's heart chilled. So that's the case.
"Hehe… I have been wondering why Madam fled. So that is the reason?" the monkey said as he looked at the woman's belly, and he started laughing maniacally. "Haha, I reckon those bastards never imagined that the madam of the scarab race actually got pregnant. Mhm… True, Duma hasn't returned for three years, as he was killed when he was outside. Logically, you shouldn't be pregnant. As such, they never thought of this. However, the scarab race…
"Rumors have it that yours is a race capable of pregnancy even three or five years after sex. Hehe, if my guess is correct, the child inside you is the future Duma, since you are the sole surviving scarab-race member. Duma…" the monkey said in a trance-like manner. "That is the soul of the scarab race. Now that it has entered the body of this child, if I can cook and eat this child…" The monkey laughed maniacally. "Hahaha! The luck of the entirety of the scarab race shall belong to me!"
Madam's body chilled.
Greed appeared on the monkey's face. "Don't worry. I will take you away. I will care for you properly until the birth of this child."
Despair appeared on Madam's face.
At this time, at a certain faraway location, Chen Feng was also facing a life-or-death predicament, as he was surrounded by the tiger-faced man and others.
Chen Feng frowned. What should I do? God Punisher? This was the strongest single target attack Chen Feng had at the moment. However, after thinking about it, Chen Feng realized with great grief that regardless of how strong God Punisher was, even if he could insta-kill his target, it was still a single target attack. He could only kill one of them with it. That would not do.
Yet his others abilities would be even more useless against these people. He wasn't their opponent. If so, the only thing Chen Feng could rely on was his Luck Aura.
He glanced at his luck value. At present, only half was left. The amount of 9,999 had seemed very terrifying, yet to ensure their escape earlier, he had been using it up without stop. Ultimately, Myriad Illusions hadn't been powerful enough. To conceal himself from these people that were far stronger than him, a huge amount of luck value had been required.
Ten luck value exhausted…
Ten luck value exhausted…
…
Chen Feng sighed inwardly. This won't do. Although he had absolute superiority in terms of "length," his strength was still lacking. Moreover, this absolute superiority was only against their humanoid forms. If the opponents were to transform back into their true forms… Mhm… Perhaps Chen Feng would be able to witness a "big bird" the size of several dozen meters.
They approached him without stop. "Hehehehe."
Suddenly, Chen Feng asked, "Why are you fellows staying in this form?" He felt like he could try dragging this out by asking them some questions. "Aren't your true forms even more powerful?"
"It is a surprise that madam's taste is so heavy," the tiger-faced man said in astonishment. "The beast form is, after all, still a primal form. Regardless of race, only the humanoid transformation is an indication of them being an expert. Madam…"
The rest of them were rather shocked as well. Why was this madam asking such an idiotic question?
Chen Feng's heart thumped. Humanoid… This was not the first time he heard this term. The Primordial Era should not have any humans. Why did the term "humanoid" exist, then? All these races prided themselves on being able to assume a humanoid form and regarded only those capable of assuming a humanoid form as true experts. How had such an idea appeared?
Chen Feng could vaguely feel that he had perhaps stumbled upon something amazing. But then… it was destined that these people would not be able to answer his questions.
The tiger-faced man narrowed his eyes. "Looks like Madam is trying to drag this out."
"Madam's voice is so charming. I reckon that Madam will perform very well in foreplay. However, too lengthy a foreplay isn't too nice, am I right?" the snake-shaped man said as he approached.
…
Chen Feng looked at the precipice behind him. From his memories, in all the movies he had watched, the main characters could survive by leaping down the precipice. Since he had the assistance of Luck Aura, it shouldn't be a problem for him to jump down as well. Instinctively, he glanced downward. Next, he noticed a rather powerful-looking beast falling down due to carelessness. Instantly, the beast transformed into dry bones.
At the sight of this, Chen Feng's heart chilled.
Shit, this wasn't how plots progress in the movies!
The tiger-faced man saw Chen Feng's action and thought that "she" was contemplating suicide. Since they were planning to capture Madam alive, they could never allow suicide. "Go!"
Bang!
A terrifying energy erupted.
The tiger-faced man's eyes gleamed coldly. "God Convergence!"
His calm eyes turned gold. From the gold pupils, terrifying energy shot out and locked onto Chen Feng's body.
Shua!
Instantly, Chen Feng's body stiffened. He was no longer able to move.
Chen Feng was horrified. What damnable ability is this?
Luck Aura, activate!
Shua! Shua!
His luck value dropped crazily. Instantly, several thousand luck value disappeared. Finally, Chen Feng's body was no longer stiff. However, the "Madam" appearance he had been assuming started flickering, nearly disappearing.
Shit!
When Chen Feng saw a perverted hand reaching out, trying to grope him, he turned around and directly leaped down.
Shua!
With a leap, he entered the endless abyss of sure death.
"Not good."
The tiger-faced man grabbed forth hastily, yet he failed to reach Chen Feng in time. With his eyes wide open, he stared blankly as Madam's body started flickering in an odd fashion before entering the abyss.
Bang!
With a loud boom, Madam's body vanished.
They all sank into silence. The water down in the abyss was such that, regardless of how powerful a person was, death was assured by a single touch of the water. Not a single person was an exception to this. They had expected that Madam would attempt suicide. However, they had never imagined that they would fail to stop her.
The snake-shaped man angrily glared at the tiger-faced man. "Didn't you say that you could stop her suicide?"
The tiger-faced man was speechless. He had never imagined that the God Convergence he was so proud of would actually fail. One ought to know that this ability had a 99.99% success rate against awakened ones at the same level as him. The last time this ability had failed him was when he had used it on his second uncle.
Damn it! he cursed inwardly. However, despite his regret, they weren't terribly troubled, since their mission was to only ensure the death of the sole survivor of the scarab race.
"Well then, let's announce the completion of this mission."

Chapter 655: Tampering with History
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
At Mysterious Town, a figure streaked past. With astonishment, Chen Feng found that he had returned to the Genetic Era.
What's going on?
He was bewildered. In his memories, as he had been falling from the precipice, just as he had been about to land on the surface of the water, a blue radiance had flashed before his eyes, and next, he had returned. What had happened? Could it be that the Duma-rescuing mission had been successful? Chen Feng was bewildered.
He raised his head and saw a broken turtle shell before him. This turtle shell appeared rather peculiar. It had clearly been broken apart, yet all the pieces were still sticking together. Shining with a blue radiance, suddenly, a scene appeared in the empty air.
Shua!
Light swirled around. Once again, a primordial aura descended. Chen Feng could see clearly the fleeing Madam being chased after on the screen.
"She was discovered?" Chen Feng's heart thumped. Could it be that his mission of rescuing Duma had failed instead?
Shua!
She raised her head. In the scene, Madam had already been forced to desperation.
"Madam, just surrender," the monkey said with a smile. Surprising him, Madam, who had been despairing and struggling bitterly all along, suddenly calmed down.
"In short, you are the only one who followed this trail?" Madam asked with a calm gaze.
The monkey had an ominous feeling. "So what if that's the case?"
"Have you heard of a legend?" Madam asked calmly.
The monkey was on high alert now. "What?"
"Never… ever…" Madam said, one word at a time, "…face a scarab race member solo!"
Monkey's expression changed greatly.
Damn it!
Shua!
His body retreated rapidly.
Alas… it was already over for the monkey.
Madam pointed at the empty air. "Condense!" A terrifying radiance swirled around and locked on to monkey directly. The flow of time in an area a hundred meters around them vanished. The monkey had obviously reached the edge of this hundred-meter area, yet he was forcefully reversed back to where he had stood previously.
Madam's eyes gleamed coldly. "Even if my present strength has declined… I am still an expert of the scarab race!" She would have been helpless against a huge number of people. However, if it was only a single opponent…
Hum—
A faint undulation surrounded the area. A formidable chronal power severed this area from the outside world.
Chen Feng's eyes widened. "This…" He recognized this ability. This was the trump card of the scarab race, an ability Duma had once used on him and also the scarab race's most terrifying ability, an ability where the turtles trapped their opponents and outlive them.
And thus, in the scene, for the first time, Chen Feng witnessed the prowess of this ability. He saw the birth of Duma, he saw the deranged monkey try to make a move against Duma, he saw Madam end this ability before sending Duma away.
And next…
He saw madam cough blood before once again using this ability to trap the monkey, who wasn't able to escape in time.
"Are you sick? I already told you, I will not kill you. Why are you still trapping me?" the monkey said, furious.
Madam's voice was instead exceptionally calm. "Since you already know the truth, you cannot be allowed to survive."
And thus, time passed. From Chen Feng's point of view as an observer, he could see that in a short few seconds, within the trap, a very long time passed. The two of them grew old and died from old age…
The madam and the monkey perished together.
There, outside the trap, was only the newborn Duma. Breaking out of the eggshell, a gold turtle head popped out, and a dense radiance was swirling around the turtle. Slowly, a pair of inquisitive eyes opened. At the instant the eyes opened, gold radiance surged.
"The exact same time I leaped down the precipice?"
Finally, Chen Feng understood. So that was the case.
Finally, Chen Feng understood the reason for his successful return to the future. The blue radiance before him intensified. The turtle shell seemed no longer capable of persevering, and a gentle voice drifted over from the horizon. "Thank you…"
Chen Feng's heart thumped. This was Madam's voice!
Ka!
The shell shattered. Instantly, the blue zone vanished, leaving behind only a pile of broken shell pieces.
"Are you the one who guided me back in time?"
Chen Feng understood. This was a broken shell left behind by Madam back then. For some reason, it had been delivered to this Mysterious Town, subsequently guiding him back in time to rescue Duma.
However… why? History had originally flowed correctly. Why had he been required to correct history now? What exactly had happened to the Primordial Era? Chen Feng had no idea. What exactly had happened here? Since his memories hadn't changed, perhaps he had at least done the right thing this time.
"Spirit?" Chen Feng called out.
Spirit replied promptly as usual. "Here."
"Replay everything you saw earlier," Chen Feng said.
"All right." Spirit replayed the scene of what had happened earlier. Chen Feng had stepped into the blue region, shut his eyes for only five seconds, and then once again reopened his eyes.
In short, the time he'd spent at the Primordial Era had been skipped. That made things interesting. He had a solemn expression on his face as he wondered about what had happened here.
What was up with that ability capable of twisting history? If history was truly altered, perhaps the entire Genetic Era would be affected as well. Perhaps Chen Feng wouldn't even transmigrate over from Earth this time. Everything was unknown.
"I don't suggest you continue advancing." Spirit's tone became solemn. "This place is giving me an extremely ominous feeling."
Chen Feng stared ahead. "I know."
This Mysterious Town seemed even more terrifying now. However, Chen Feng had no way out. The scarab-race incident had planted an utmost fear in his heart. The act of changing history was truly way too scary. Even Duma might have been erased from his roots. How could a human be safe, then? He had to stop the opponent, even if he still had no idea who the opponent was!
"After all… I am the sole awakened of the human race," he said calmly.
Shua!
Light swirled before his eyes. He picked the turtle shells up. Perhaps these things might still prove helpful.
Bang!
He walked out of the region purged of blue. Step by step, he moved deeper. With the blue fading, the distant green appeared exceptionally distinct. That was the next region. The outline of Mysterious Town was becoming clearer. In the midst of green, one could vaguely see a primordial item flickering unceasingly, maintaining this green region. Evidently, this was the next primordial fragment Chen Feng had to face.
"Hopefully, you won't disappoint." Chen Feng inhaled deeply before stepping into the green.
Shua!
Light swirled. Instinctively, Chen Feng tried grabbing at the primordial fragment. However, the instant his foot entered the green...
Bang!
All the green was instantly cleared. A terrifying force swept down from the horizon. All the green was destroyed, and a brand-new dazzling red radiance suddenly shone, seemingly enveloping the entire world.
Ka!
The green primordial fragment had actually been instantly destroyed.
Destroyed?
Chen Feng had an ominous feeling.
Bang!
The radiance before him intensified. The terrifying red shone dazzlingly. When the brightness faded, Chen Feng had once again descended into a brand new world. With a single glance at this world before him, his entire body chilled.

Chapter 656: Whose World?
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Somewhere within Sea City, Xu Fei, who was in the midst of an intense "battle" with his opponent, was looking at a pop-up in excitement. "The time has come for this lord to earn merit again?"
"Brother Xu," his "opponent" called out sweetly.
"We will continue after I return." He spanked her butt before turning around and leaving in a carefree manner.
At the same time, Kong Bai, who was on the way to the hospital for plastic surgery, was also looking at his screen with doubt as he muttered, "How did that old man Duma find out about me?"
…
Mysterious Town.
There, the resplendent red was shining upon an entire region. The green had already been entirely destroyed, the primordial fragment included. However, within the boundless red, a spark of green could be seen shining.
Hum—
The faint green shone before sweeping toward Chen Feng and enveloping him.
Bang!
The red intensified. The furious red flashed and destroyed the green. Alas, it was already too late. The final dot of green had been able to tear open a hole with a wondrous method.
Shua!
Light swirled. When Chen Feng opened his eyes, he saw a brand new world. A gloomy sky above him, a light drizzle pattering down, a huge crowd, and a world tinged in ancient-looking colors. This was a scene he had never seen before. Distantly, numerous tall buildings and tall mansions stood. Oddly, these buildings gave off an extremely ancient feeling, lacking the feel of modern buildings. The architecture did not seem like any of the cities Chen Feng was familiar with.
"Weird… Where is this place?"
Chen Feng was sure that he had never seen such a scene. However, for an unknown reason, what he saw gave him an unprecedentedly familiar feeling, as of something imprinted in the depths of his soul, causing his very soul to tremble. He tried stretching his hand out, yet he found that he was unable to move, just like the previous time he'd traveled back to the Primordial Era.
Chen Feng frowned. "I can't move right now. This should be something similar to what happened before. In short, I have returned back to a certain unique era? From the looks of it, this should be a civilization preceding the Genetic Era. Mhm…"
He looked at the vehicles that were moving without stop and watched on as the world became clearer and clearer, yet he still could not move. After pondering his previous experience, he gained some understanding.
"It seems like that terrifying existence is capable of changing history. Or perhaps one could say that this is a terrifying ability one stands to gain by owning a whole primordial item. Time and space can be easily reversed. History can be tempered with to achieve his goal. With his ability, he tried to change everything. As for these radiances of differing colors in Mysterious Town…"
The truth seemed to be appearing before Chen Feng. The radiances of numerous colors were not the helpers of that fellow. On the contrary, these radiances were all resisting that fellow.
"In short…"
Chen Feng drew a conclusion. That complete primordial item was trying to tamper with history, to erase the origin of all existences to reach a certain goal. As for these fragments here, due to their spiritual nature, they refused to permit this happening. This was the reason the large-scale undulation had erupted. That was the origin of the multicolored radiances surging straight to the sky. That was the origin of all that had happened in Mysterious Town.
"So that's the case."
Chen Feng finally understood. Each of the different regions occupied by different colors was a node to change history. He had coincidentally entered the blue region first, entering Duma's world.
Chen Feng thought about it. "If I wasn't there at that time…" If he hadn't been there, the scarab race's history might have truly changed, and Duma might have truly disappeared for real. This was in accordance with his conclusion. In short, what he needed to do was spoil this fellow's numerous attempts at changing history? As he thought of this, he had an ominous feeling, as this time, he had reached a modern society rather than the Primordial Era.
Chen Feng's heart chilled. "Something seems wrong." This was supposed to be yet another primordial fragment. Since that fellow was trying to tamper with the history that this particular primordial fragment was imprinted with, he should have traveled to the Primordial Era. Why had he arrived at a modern society, then?
Green…
Primordial…
Modern…
Chen Feng contemplated. When he had entered this world, the situation had seemed somewhat different from his previous time travel, as this time, the green radiance had been destroyed prior to his time travel. That unknown existence had forcefully destroyed the green.
In short, this unknown existence had initially unleashed an AoE, triggering the resistance of all the other fragments. Now, on top of the AoE, this unknown existence had unleashed a single target attack as well. With that, the green fragment had been directly destroyed.
No, this reasoning did not seem right. If the opponent was truly this powerful, the turtle shell could have been destroyed previously as well. If this opponent had decided to unleash the AoE and single target attack at the same time, none of the other fragments would have been able to resist the attack. However, this opponent had obviously not done that previously. As such, this reasoning wasn't right.
Chen Feng thought of another possibility.
Perhaps…
"When I arrived, the green had already been defeated by the AoE in the first place?" Chen Feng guessed. Could it be that just as he'd arrived, the history imprinted here had already finished being tampered with? A certain part of the Primordial Era's history had been erased? This was the only conclusion he could reach. This was also the only possible explanation for what had happened.
Shua!
Light swirled before his eyes. This modern world still operated before his eyes. Amid the light drizzle, a middle-aged couple appeared with an umbrella. They seemed to be holding onto a child, hugging the child tightly for fear of the child suffering from the cold.
The family of three seemed to be in a rush, and this entire world seemed to become clearer along with their appearance.
These two are the main characters this time…
Similar to the woman from the scarab race earlier, when the main character appeared, the entire world became clear.
However… Chen Feng found that he still couldn't move. He was still playing the role of an observer.
Chen Feng frowned. What's going on? Suddenly, he thought of a possibility. Previously, he had only been able to move thanks to the help of the primordial fragment, that turtle shell. Now, the green fragment had already been destroyed. As such, he could no longer participate in what was happening in this part of the history.
Chen Feng smiled bitterly. "So I can only watch on?" Fine, he would play this role, even though he was clueless as to whose history this was.
Bang! Bang!
In the sky, two muffled peals of thunder sounded, and the rain became heavier. By the road, the masses moved hurriedly. Most of the people without umbrellas were taking cover within the shops. Chen Feng's gaze was focused on the middle-aged couple.
"The point where the course of history is altered…"
Chen Feng watched on silently.
Du du—
The cell phone sounded.
"Hello. Mhm, I know. Don't worry, after settling down the child, I will go over with my wife immediately. Haha, don't worry. I will succeed for real this time."
The middle-aged man ended the call and left quickly with his wife and child. Just as the family of three turned a corner, suddenly, a truck that had gone out of control rushed at them.
Bang!
The out-of-control truck charged forth like a ferocious beast and crashed through several cars in a row. Even the street lamps were being knocked over everywhere, yet the truck was still heading directly toward the couple.
Chen Feng's eyes gleamed coldly. "Here it comes!" This damnable primordial item was indeed altering history!
"Careful!" The middle-aged man pulled his wife and child and retreated to the side hastily. Alas, the out-of-control truck was still heading toward them. They retreated hastily, dropping the umbrella in their panic. For the first time, the appearance of the child that was being hugged tightly by the woman was revealed to Chen Feng.
With a single look, Chen Feng was alarmed.
No, this should be a mere resemblance…
However, when his gaze trailed downward, when he saw the stone hanging around the child's neck, he finally understood. This was his world! This child was him! This damnable primordial item was trying to erase his existence as well!
