880 Brutal

Empyrean City was one of the main cities of human cultivators on the Hallowed Beast Continent. With more than one Perfected Lord guarding over it, Empyrean City was rather safe.

Lin Feng landed outside Empyrean City with the five Chaotic Perfected Persons, but the city gate did not open. As for flying directly into Empyrean City, that was impossible, because there was a defensive array.

This defensive array was more than just a Perfected Lord’s array. It was even personally presided over by a Perfected Lord. Even Chaotic spirit beasts could forget about breaking the array.

“I’m Lu Ba. Open the gates quickly.” One of the Chaotic Perfected Persons stepped forward and shouted.

“Eh, Lu Ba, you’re back so soon? As usual, one Chaotic prime crystal per entry.”

Many Chaotic Perfected Persons stood on top of the Empyrean City. A few of them were even peak Chaotic Perfected Persons. They did not open the city gate directly, but asked for Chaotic prime crystals.

“Senior, Chaotic prime crystals are a specialty of our Hallowed Beast Continent. They only appear on the Hallowed Beast Continent. They are Chaotic crystals accumulated by some dire beasts that absorb Chaotic aura over many years, and contain extremely pure energy. They are very useful for both cultivation and setting up arrays. If you want to enter Empyrean City, every cultivator has to pay a Chaotic prime crystal. I’ll help you to pay for Senior’s Chaotic prime crystal.”

Lin Feng nodded and remembered this Lu Ba. He was quite sensible, and was trying to befriend Lin Feng with just one Chaotic prime crystal. However, even though he knew that Lu Ba was trying to befriend him, Lin Feng still remembered it in his heart.

After paying the six Chaotic prime crystals, the city gate opened. Lin Feng and the others quickly entered. Then, the city gate quickly closed. They did not dare to let their guards down at all.

This was because just now, Lin Feng had even sensed something spying outside the city gate. Those were probably some powerful Chaotic dire beasts eying Empyrean City menacingly.

According to Lu Ba, just outside the city gate, the Chaotic dire beasts had once ambushed some Chaotic Perfected Persons, causing those Chaotic Perfected Persons to suffer heavy losses. Some had even fallen.

This made even Lin Feng’s heart palpitate slightly. This was really an era where cultivators were struggling at death’s door. The dire beasts of Chaos were the true dominators of the entire Chaotic Continent!

The city was very spacious, and it was clean and tidy. There were many people walking on the streets, but almost none of them were ordinary people. They were all cultivators above the level of half-Chaotic lifeforms.

Even Chaotic lifeforms could be found everywhere.

According to Lu Ba, there were a million people living in Empyrean City, but there were only 20,000 to 30,000 Chaotic Perfected Persons, and most of them were half-Chaotic lifeforms.

There were very, very few people who were not even half-Chaotic lifeforms.

Those half-Chaotic lifeforms were doing hard labor in the city. They would almost never leave Empyrean City in their entire lives, because outside the city lied the territory of the Chaotic dire beasts. Once they left Empyrean City and lost the protection of the array of the city, these half-Chaotic lifeforms would probably not even survive for an hour before being torn to pieces by the Chaotic dire beasts.

Only by becoming a Chaotic lifeform could one enter and exit the city and fight with those dire beasts. After winning, they would obtain some spoils of war, and thus enjoy an extremely high status in the city.

It was brutal!

This was the most direct feeling Lin Feng had after understanding the basic situation on the Hallowed Beast Continent and Empyrean City. This continent was truly brutal, not to the Chaotic dire beasts, but to the cultivators.

Without metamorphosing into a Chaotic lifeform, it was very difficult to even survive outside the city. Even in Empyrean City, half-Chaotic lifeforms could only have the minimal guarantee of livelihood.

As for ordinary people?

That would be the bottom of the bottom tier. However, there was nothing unfair about it. Even the ordinary people at the bottom thought so.

This was because those Chaotic lifeforms had fought with their lives to earn their status! It was those Chaotic Perfected Persons who granted safety to millions of people in the entire city.

Fortunately, people here, even the most ordinary and those in the lowest class, could cultivate. Moreover, good cultivation techniques were all publicized. Once they took the risk to go out, they might even be able to obtain great benefits, which would allow them to ascend to the top in a single bound.

Lin Feng followed Lu Ba into Lu Ba’s home. Lu Ba was a Chaotic lifeform after all. Although he was only the most ordinary Chaotic lifeform, as a dignified Perfected Person, he had already exceeded 90% of the people in Empyrean City.

He could be considered to have a certain degree of status. His home was very spacious, and there were even servants and maidservants. They were all half-Chaotic lifeforms. Even Lin Feng, who had dominated the Incendium Continent and almost become the ruler of a Chaotic continent, was rather surprised to see this scene.

In the Incendium Continent, where would one see half-Chaotic cultivators become servants to others? Moreover, these were the lowest and most ordinary servants who served tea and did the housework.

However, such a thing was too common on the Hallowed Beast Continent. After all, the number of half-Chaotic lifeforms were the greatest, but their status was far inferior to Chaotic lifeforms.

Of course, these servants were not slaves. They also had freedom, and came to Lu Ba’s house to be maidservants and servants for remuneration. Once they earned enough money, they would leave, or purchase cultivation techniques, and work hard to metamorphose into Chaotic lifeforms.

This was how things were for almost everyone. They cultivated with all they could. Hence, although there were very few people on the Hallowed Beast Continent, the quality of the cultivators was rather good.

If a cultivator from the Hallowed Beast Continent actually came to the Incendium Continent, even cultivators from a main city could easily defeat the entire Incendium Continent.

“Senior, please stay in this residence during this period of time. There are maidservants arranged at your service. If you have any requests, just instruct them.”

Lin Feng nodded and said, “All right, I’ll tell the servants if anything happens.”

“Then I’ll be taking my leave.”

With that, Lu Ba bade farewell and left Lin Feng’s residence.

Lin Feng was alone in the residence. There were four maidservants, all of whom were outstanding-looking women. Moreover, all of them were half-Chaotic lifeforms, and had a unique aura.

However, Lin Feng did not have any other thoughts. After confirming that the residence was indeed safe, Lin Feng entered the quiet room directly and asked Ao to stand guard outside.

Lin Feng immersed his consciousness in his internal universe, and arrived in front of the 17 Terrestrial Dragons in an instant.

These were 17 Chaotic dire beasts, and there was even an advanced dire beast among them.

“Refine.”

Without any hesitation, Lin Feng began to refine these 17 Chaotic dire beasts, hoping to condense a second Chaotic Hole. After all, in the past, Lin Feng had refined all kinds of divine medicines and miraculous items obtained in the Incendium Divine Palace over billions of years, but he still could not condense a second Chaotic Hole.

One, two, three…

All the 17 Chaotic dire beasts were refined by Lin Feng, but there was still not a trace of joy on Lin Feng’s face. The reason was very simple. There was still only one Chaotic Hole in his body.

For the third level of the Primeval True Scripture, condensing a Chaotic Hole was even more difficult than Lin Feng had imagined.
