10: Robbing the Primordial Ancient Mine [Please continue reading]
"You? A Quasi-Emperor? Hahaha! Chu Feng, you're blowing this out of proportion! If you're a Quasi-Emperor, I... I, Ji Ziyue, would even be willing to be your wife! Hahahaha!"
She laughed while pointing at Chu Feng, thinking this was the most ridiculous and hilarious joke she had ever heard in her life.
In this era where even a Second Heaven of the Immortal Platform Great Power can be called a hegemon of a region, and a Dao Severing King remains in seclusion, a Quasi-Emperor?
That is a Realm that only exists in ancient legends, almost a myth! Which Quasi-Emperor isn't an old antique who has lived for thousands or tens of thousands of years? Which Quasi-Emperor doesn't possess a spirit that swallows mountains and rivers, and the power to suppress the galaxy?
Who would be like him, excessively young, boundlessly handsome, yet so poor that he even has to borrow points for teleportation, mooching off food and drink in a young girl's room? This is simply an insult to the word "Quasi-Emperor"!
Seeing that Little Moon not only didn't believe him but was laughing so "rampantly", and even set a new "flag", Chu Feng was not angry but happy instead, his eyes instantly shining like stars!
He suddenly grabbed Little Moon's hand and said excitedly, "This is what you said! Little Moon! If I am a Quasi-Emperor, you will be my wife! I've already recorded it using the Chat Group's recording function! The evidence is solid, you are not allowed to go back on your word!"
The warmth from his palm made Ji Ziyue's cheeks flush red. She tried hard to pull her hand back but failed, so she had to glare at him angrily, "Hmph! If you want to take advantage of me, just say so! Stop making up these ridiculous excuses!" She didn't believe him at all!
"Of course, if you really could be a Quasi-Emperor, it wouldn't be a loss for me to be your wife, consider it me climbing the social ladder!" She said in a teasing tone, not taking it seriously at all.
"Hahaha! Good! It's a deal! My Little Moon wife!" Chu Feng laughed happily and swept Ji Ziyue, who hadn't reacted yet, up into his arms, "Talk is cheap! Let's go, Hubby will take you to see what it means—to travel like a Quasi-Emperor!"
"Ah! What are you doing! Let go of me!" Ji Ziyue exclaimed. She only felt a blur before her eyes, and the surrounding space instantly distorted and changed. By the time she regained her senses, she discovered that she was already being held tightly in Chu Feng's arms, and the two had already left that cozy boudoir.
The dizziness from the spatial shift had not yet fully faded when Ji Ziyue felt her feet touch the ground. A cold wind, desolate, ancient, and carrying a dense aura of the primordial, blew towards her, making her shiver involuntarily.
She looked around in a daze, only to see that the surroundings were a vast expanse of crimson earth, with craggy rocks like hideous ghosts.
The sky was filled with an eternal, undissipating mist of Chaos, obscuring the stars, sun, and moon. Only some strange Ore emitted a faint glow, illuminating this dead and dangerous land.
The air was filled with dense Spiritual Qi, but it was also mixed with a sense of ominousness and oppression that made one's Soul tremble.
"Th-this is?" Ji Ziyue's voice carried a trace of trembling. She was extremely sensitive to space and was absolutely certain that just in that instant, they had crossed an unimaginable distance, from the Ji Family in the Southern Region of the Eastern Wasteland to a completely unfamiliar forbidden land.
Chu Feng released his hold on her, his face still wearing that relaxed and easygoing smile, as if he had just taken her for a stroll in the back garden, "Don't look anymore, Little Moon, welcome to the Primordial Ancient Mine. Hold on tight to me, next, your husband will take you to 'borrow' some dowry points."
The Primordial Ancient Mine?!
Ji Ziyue's brain went "buzz" and instantly went blank! This was one of the seven great Life Forbidden Zones of Big Dipper, a forbidden land that had buried countless experts, where even ancient Sages had no way out once they entered!
She... she had actually been brought here by this bastard?!
And Chu Feng had already leisurely activated the Chat Group's live streaming function and @-ed all members.
Chu Feng: "Ahem... Good evening, Fairies. You're not asleep, are you? Next, I, Chu Feng, will take everyone to observe the legendary interior of the Primordial Ancient Mine from a first-person perspective. It's a rare opportunity, don't miss it if you're passing by!"
This message was like dropping a giant boulder into a calm lake, instantly blowing out all the lurking members.
Saintess of the Jade Pool: 【The Primordial Ancient Mine?! Fellow Daoist Chu, you...】
Yan Ruyu: 【This place is dangerous, retreat quickly!】
An Miaoyi: 【My God! Are you really in the Primordial Ancient Mine? Are you tired of living?!】
Witch: 【Wow! Playing this big? Big Sister likes it! Quickly let Big Sister see what the later generation's Forbidden Zone looks like!】
The group was filled with exclamations and dissuasions, with the exception of the Witch, but Chu Feng just smiled reassuringly at the live stream camera, then took the hand of the still-dazed Ji Ziyue and walked towards the depths of the ancient mine.
At first, Ji Ziyue was still terrified, clutching Chu Feng's arm tightly, fearing that some Primordial creature might jump out from somewhere or that she might trigger some lethal array pattern. But as they walked, her gaze was attracted by those plants on the roadside emitting a glowing treasure light.
"That is... Five-Colored Jade Essence Orchid? It has at least five thousand years of medicinal age!"
"Heavenly Star Grass! So many!"
"Fire Cloud Ganoderma! It's almost become a spirit, right!"
As they gradually went deeper, the grade of the Spirit Medicine that appeared became higher and higher, from treasure medicines with thousands of years of age to small Medicine Kings over ten thousand years old, and finally, there even appeared stalks of—Saint Medicine, surrounded by rosy light and born with the Dao rhyme!
Saint Medicine! These are peerless treasures that can make even a Saint go crazy! Outside, it's hard to find even one, enough to cause a war between Holy Lands! But here, they grew like weeds, in patches, and were arranged exceptionally neatly, as if they had been carefully cultivated by someone.
"Chu Feng! Look! So many Saint Medicine! We've struck it rich!!!" Ji Ziyue instantly threw her fear to the nine heavens, her eyes shining, like a little hamster that had discovered a Treasure Trove, she cheered and rushed up, starting to carefully pick those Saint Medicine.
While picking, she didn't forget to store the harvested Saint Medicine through the Chat Group's warehouse function, her little face overflowing with happiness and excitement, her previous fear having long since vanished into thin air.
Inside the live stream room, the four Fairies, through the perspective shared by Chu Feng, watched Ji Ziyue picking stalks of Saint Medicine—which were enough to trigger bloody battles in the outside world—like pulling radishes, all of them dumbfounded.
An Miaoyi: 【Th-these are all Saint Medicine? I'm not dreaming, right?】
Saintess of the Jade Pool: 【Deep in the Primordial Ancient Mine... there are actually so many Saint Medicine gardens? It seems the ancient records are correct, this place is indeed the place where ancient existences slumber.】
Yan Ruyu: 【Picking from a Supreme medicine garden... Chu Feng, you...】 (Her cold voice carried unbelievable shock.)
Witch: 【Wow! Little Moon, hurry and pick! The purple one on the left! Yes! That's it! It looks delicious! Chu Feng, you brat, not bad, taking a girl to tour a forbidden zone and pick flowers, I give this romance full marks!】
They had previously thought Chu Feng was joking, but seeing it with their own eyes now, they truly believed that they were really inside the Primordial Ancient Mine, and were wantonly harvesting the "property" belonging to the Forbidden Zone Supreme Beings!
