Chapter 1382: Supreme Being's Evolving Terrain

A legendary figure has appeared!

Chu Feng's scalp tingled, and his blood surged, threatening to burst from his head. This was truly beyond imagination. The large black dog's frantic barks suggested that the White-Clothed Empress, whom it spoke of, was indeed still alive in the mortal realm, manifesting in this era?!

Chu Feng felt somewhat numb. Others might not understand, but how could he not? He had personally witnessed the man on the tattered bell and knew they had fought their way to the Soul River, battling across the four extreme floating lands. Throughout heaven and earth, from ancient times to the present, how many could compare to them? Now, a legendary figure had appeared, astonishingly residing in this Supreme Desolate Land for countless years. He was utterly awestruck.

At this moment, even the ox-headed creature, whose head was covered in thick green hair, fell silent, clamping its mouth shut, as if fearing to disturb or startle something. Its large, bell-like eyes were filled with awe and terror. It was actually trembling uncontrollably, utterly terrified.

The peak of the small mountain exploded, and white mist diffused. The woman emerged, exceptionally graceful and clad in spotless white, like a bright moon rising into an eternally desolate, dark night sky. She was divine and ethereal; as her hair danced, she seemed poised to ascend to heaven, transcend the mortal world, and stand above all realms.

"Greetings… Empress!"

The entire Celestial Race prostrated themselves, bowing repeatedly and fervently, as if they had witnessed a myth, an ultimate being that had created heaven and earth. The Buddhist, Daoist, Yuan, and other races were also dumbfounded. Their spirit light trembled, and they shivered uncontrollably. Many could not restrain themselves and were about to bow down as well. The Strange Wilderness Great Thunder Sound Buddhist Race and others, who had survived countless calamities and truly knew some ancient secrets, were now deeply shaken to their core. The supreme being of old, the legendary Empress of yesteryear, had actually reappeared in the mortal realm?! Individuals from certain great clans who had some knowledge were utterly dumbfounded.

However, Chu Feng still found it somewhat unbelievable. Why was the white-clothed woman here, and why hadn't she moved for so many years? He recalled the imprinted fragments the black giant beast had shown him. The White-Clothed Empress should have journeyed far away, embarking alone on a path of no return, crossing an isolated, suspended bridge. That was how it was supposed to be!

Chu Feng activated his Fiery Golden Eyes to get a closer look, but the pressure emanating from that area was so immense that he felt as if his entire body would explode. Especially when golden light erupted from his eyes, he felt a sharp sting. Before he could even clearly see the woman's true face, blood tears began to stream from the corners of his eyes. At the same time, experts from the Strange Wilderness Golden Body Daoist Race, Yuan Race, and others also groaned, faring even worse than Chu Feng. They, too, were observing, some using Celestial Eyes to probe, resulting in their eyes almost shattering and blood tears flowing freely.

"We pay our respects to the Empress!"

A group of people from the Celestial Immortal Island overseas almost prostrated themselves with every step, moving forward to approach the small mountain. This was a complete act of pilgrimage. In fact, other powerful clans, those who had heard of that period of history, felt a growing apprehension and had already knelt down, also wishing to join the pilgrimage.

"Don't go closer!" Chu Feng finally spoke. He wiped away the blood from the corners of his eyes, his heart throbbing with unease. He felt that the area was extremely strange and terrifying. Therefore, he shouted a warning. Then, he silently began to deduce, using domain methods to probe and ascertain the situation there.

The Celestial Race did not stop; they continued forward. At this point, not to mention Zhou Zhengde, even the ultimate progenitor of the domain field would not make them change their minds. They held a broken ancestral artifact in their hands, which resonated with the small mountain ahead, sensing that it was indeed the aura of the supreme expert they sought. Moreover, why had they come here? It was because, through various clues, they were convinced that a portion of the path the White-Clothed Empress had taken back then passed through this very location! However, they had not expected to witness it with their own eyes right now.

"This is a forbidden land, no less dangerous than the Supreme Terrain itself. Stop at once!" Chu Feng shouted. His impression of the Celestial Race was not bad; after all, this race was prostrating before the white-clothed woman, and his old acquaintance, Jiang Luoshen, was also among them.

"Empress, why is there no response?" At this moment, the woman from the Celestial Race with a crystalline red mole between her eyebrows whispered, realizing something. What kind of person was the White-Clothed Woman back then? She had swept across all ages, always moving with unparalleled arrogance. How incredibly sharp were her divine senses? How could she be so quiet after being called? She even seemed… lifeless!

"Could it be that the Empress… has died?!" This thought spread uncontrollably among some of them, causing everyone present agonizing pain in their hearts and a shudder. She was their faith, the pioneer their ancestors had always pursued. How could she be dead?

Finally, Chu Feng, basing his deductions on the terrain and referring to the surrounding mountains, deduced something. Not long ago, on the silver page he had obtained, there was a similar vague record with a related description: Ultimate evolvers, supreme beings, when suppressing a region of mountains and rivers with their aura, essence, and spirit, can spontaneously evolve and develop it into a special terrain! This was… a similar place!

"Brother Zhou, please enlighten us," the goddess leader of the Celestial Race said, having already stopped. This exceptionally graceful woman spoke, leading everyone to retreat. This was because she had trembled uncontrollably just moments ago. As she approached the small mountain, she had an inexplicable intuitive realization that she could not proceed; touching it would mean certain death! At this moment, the vivid, crystalline mole between her eyebrows was also glowing with rosy light. However, almost instantly, she let out a muffled groan, blood seeping from her brow, her body trembling violently, and she stumbled backward. The backlash she suffered was even more severe; the Celestial Eye on her brow was almost destroyed!

"Don't act recklessly!" Chu Feng declared. At this moment, the Buddhist Race, the Heng Race, and others all quieted down. They realized that in this terrain, Zhou Zhengde, a genius in the domain field, possessed immense, indispensable abilities. Everyone watched him, waiting for his analysis.

"May I venture to ask if I could borrow your clan's ancestral artifact for a moment?" Chu Feng inquired. Immediately, everyone from the major powerful clans looked forward, staring at the exceptionally distinguished female leader. In people's minds, she might be the direct descendant of Evil Spirit Island, potentially becoming a supreme evil spirit in the future. The ancestral artifact in her hands must be of extraordinary origin. Of course, others believed she was indeed from the Celestial Race and would become a Celestial Immortal in the future.

"You may!" The woman handed it over. It was just a bronze fragment, about the size of a thumb, and it was impossible to tell what artifact it came from.

"By borrowing the runes of heaven and earth, activating the ultimate being's aura, let the mountains take form and the terrain emerge!" Chu Feng commanded. He activated his profound domain techniques, using the aura of this ancestral artifact fragment to resonate with the mountains, making them vibrate together to reveal the truth. Special terrains formed by supreme evolvers suppressing mountains and rivers can be effectively resonated with by finding their relics or related auras, thus dispelling some mysteries. Of course, the prerequisite is that one understands such mountains and possesses profound mastery of domain techniques; otherwise, it would be meaningless.

Boom!

Like the creation of heaven and earth, streaks of blood-red lightning intertwined in the void. Then, blood rained down, as if heaven and earth were about to overturn. The entire world turned crimson, on the verge of being completely subverted and utterly shattered.

"Ah…" Many people cried out, startled. The sight before them was too terrifying. What was happening?

"The scenes of yesteryear are reappearing!" Chu Feng murmured.
