Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

Luo Feng looked at the immense figure in the yellow robe before him, his heart somewhat astonished.

"I hadn't expected that my first encounter with a Godly King from the Shi Kingdom on the Land of Origin would be in the 'Infinite Space,' a treasure site left by Yuan." Luo Feng had learned about each Godly King on the surface of the Land of Origin, so he naturally recognized at first glance that this figure in the yellow robe was one of the five Godly Kings of the Shi Kingdom, the Wuxiang Elder.

Among the five Godly Kings of the Shi Kingdom, the Wuxiang Elder ranked second in strength.

The early leaders of the Shi Kingdom were the Emperor of Tian Kun, the Wuxiang Elder, and the Ancestor of the Blade Demon. Originally, it was these three who had annihilated the Jin State and were the deeply hated enemies of the Mountain Sitting Guest.

The Emperor of Tian Kun was at the Second Realm of Godly King. The Wuxiang Elder was at the very limits of the First Realm of Godly King, even more powerful than the Elder of Snow Realm. The Ancestor of the Blade Demon was also a remarkably strong existence at the First Realm of Godly King.

"Elder brother helped me become a peripheral member of the Two Realms Palace, accumulating a great amount of merit points just to exchange for a single opportunity to enter this treasure site. This Luo He, a mere transcendence of the Primal Chaos Realm, could enter as well," the huge figure in the yellow robe said as he looked at Luo Feng, filled with jealousy and quite displeased.

He was very aware of how much he had sacrificed to enter this treasure site!

"Do I have a few tricks up my sleeve?" The Wuxiang Elder sneered at Luo Feng, "Since you are courting death, I shall satisfy you!"

Once a body in Infinite Space perished, to enter again? That would require a new qualification, another use of the token.

Every available slot to enter the treasure site was extremely precious.

"Hmph." Luo Feng looked at him, likewise harboring a killing intent!

With his current strength, he could do nothing against the three Sovereigns of the Shi Kingdom. But he didn't mind destroying the opponent's body in Infinite Space, cutting off one opportunity for him.

The two stood opposite each other, neither backing down.

"He's quite confident?" Underneath his domineering attitude, the Wuxiang Elder was also very cautious, "He hasn't become a Godly King in the outside world, so how high could his realm possibly be in Infinite Space when blazing a new path?"

Infinite Space sealed off nineteen Origin Great Daos, excluding Spiritual Will; normal combat relied on blazing new paths!

Even an Emperor's newly blazed paths might not be particularly strong.

This was also why the Wuxiang Elder was quite confident; he had blazed new paths and though he hadn't comprehended a complete branch of the Great Dao, he had conceived two Godly King Level Secret Techniques.

Blazing new paths was like this, without clear Great Dao references! Generally, one needed to comprehend multiple Godly King Level methods before one could derive a branch of the Great Dao.

"Annihilate."

Under the Wuxiang Elder's cautious demeanor, with a thought, an invisible force ignited upon Luo Feng's body.

Hiss hiss hiss~~~

Colorless, transparent flames scorched Luo Feng's body and his Spiritual Will.

"This is the 'Flame of Sin,' a new Great Dao rooted in the Origin Dao of the Infinite that I have blazed," The Wuxiang Elder was very confident, and although he hadn't mastered a complete branch of the Great Dao, he was confident in the power of the Flame of Sin.

"This flame?" Luo Feng was also somewhat shocked; the Flame of Sin was too bizarre.

He hadn't seen the opponent make a move, yet colorless flames spontaneously appeared and burned both his Physical Body and Spiritual Will.

His Spiritual Will was already powerful, even without the Lie Yuan Technique, and at this moment, it wasn't something the Flame of Sin could extinguish. Under the protection of the Lie Yuan Technique, the scorching of the Spiritual Will only felt soothing to Luo Feng.

But the Physical Body was somewhat problematic.

"Hiss hiss hiss." Luo Feng's Physical Body was very special, full of endless vitality, yet constantly grinding down its own power.

It was somewhat similar to the Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique, constantly honing its own body, parts that couldn't endure were annihilated, and afterward, new parts were born.

This was also an understanding from Luo Feng's path within the Great Dao of Life and Death, concluding the Godly King Level Body Refining Method, "Life and Death Body."

Now being scorched by the Flame of Sin, for Luo Feng, was also a kind of refining for the physique, the weaker parts naturally and actively destroyed, and vitality transformed, allowing new power to be reborn.

In just moments, the constantly rejuvenating body rapidly enhanced its resistance against the Flame of Sin.

"Pure life is not resilient enough."

"Only by continuously annihilating the weak, preserving the strong, can the physique evolve stronger," Luo Feng was very satisfied with the power of the newly comprehended 'Life and Death Body.'

Luo Feng looked at the Wuxiang Elder, "Wuxiang Godly King, is it my turn yet?"

"You—"

The Wuxiang Elder, seeing that Luo Feng could withstand the Flame of Sin, could not help but be astonished.

At this moment, Luo Feng stood in his place, already waving his hand!

Palm as a blade!

The Blade Light was refined as silk, containing both the resilience of life and the destructive force of cutting in two.

This strike was precisely the Godly King Level Blade Technique, 'One Strike Two Divisions'!

Whiz—

The Blade Light flashed and dissipated, like a silken thread slicing through the body of the Wuxiang Elder, who couldn't dodge in time.

"Whoosh." The Wuxiang Elder turned into a colorless flame, enduring this strike; he felt the remaining Blade Force slicing through his body, filled with resilience, continuously wearing down his physique. He exerted himself to suppress it, and it took a moment or two for the Blade Force within the flame body to be completely annihilated.

"You, a being of the Primal Chaos Realm, have blazed new paths that reach the Godly King Level?" The Wuxiang Elder, now a flame body, truly couldn't believe it, "Why haven't you become a Godly King already with your original paths?"

"No rush." Luo Feng looked at him, "Wuxiang Godly King, this body of yours is quite interesting, but how many strikes can you endure from me?"

"Life Unending!"

Luo Feng's body suddenly split apart, instantly dividing into as many as thirty-six Avatars.

"Avatars?" The Wuxiang Elder knew trouble was coming, "He must have Avatars hidden elsewhere if he can exert Avatars even with paths newly blazed in Infinite Space! Trying to cut off his opportunities in Infinite Space is nearly impossible."

"Chop!"

Luo Feng's thirty-six Avatars all simultaneously swung their arms, the hand blades chopping down!

With the strength of Luo Feng's Spiritual Will, he could have exerted this Godly King Level Blade Technique using over fifty Avatars. But thirty-six Avatars cooperating was precisely enough to form a Blade Formation.

"One Strike Two Divisions, Life and Death Reincarnation!"

The thirty-six Luo Fengs simultaneously swung their hand blades, the thirty-six silky Blade Lights immediately enveloping the body of the Wuxiang Elder like a Heavenly Net, continuously slicing!

"No, no—" As the Wuxiang elder was slaughtered by the Heavenly Net-like Blade Lights, he quickly noticed his flame body rapidly depleting, the power of the blade force was terrifying!

While its destructive power was formidable, it was also filled with resilience.

These Blade Forces would also return to continue the slaughter again and again, like an endless reincarnation.

"Stop, stop!" No matter where the Wuxiang elder tried to flee, those thirty-six Blade Lights enveloped him like a Heavenly Net, constantly slaughtering him.

"Stop, let's talk, let's talk. I am willing to pay a price for compensation, please spare me!" The Wuxiang elder, seeing Luo Feng becoming anxious, no longer cared about his dignity, for if his body died, he would be expelled from Infinite Space. Earning an entry slot once was tremendously hard!

Luo Feng looked at him.

Let's talk?

Against ordinary opponents, Luo Feng was indeed merciful, and would have let them go for compensation.

Unfortunately, you are one of the Three Sovereigns of Shi Kingdom! You are my master's archenemy!

"No—"

"A treasure worth a million merit points."

"I can give you treasures worth five million merit points."

"Everything is negotiable!"

"Why do you deceive me so!"

"Luo He, Luo He, very well, I remember this!"

The thirty-six Blade Lights revolved around him, merely slaughtering for more than ten breaths of time, the Wuxiang elder's body of flame finally completely extinguished, and at the moment of extinguishment, the Wuxiang elder stared at Luo Feng with a crazed look in his eyes.

Luo Feng looked at him, yet remained very calm.

This was just an appetizer!

"You and I, we have now met," Luo Feng murmured softly.

This was his first interaction with one of the Three Sovereigns of Shi Kingdom.

...

Shi Kingdom, Wuxiang City.

The grand palace, countless guards and servants, a strictly organized system.

"Luo He, Luo He!!!" An angry, deep voice came from the depths of the palace, even spreading throughout the entire palace, causing the disciples, guards, and servants within to change color.

Such terrifying aura was obviously that of the Wuxiang elder.

"Seems like the elder has erupted in fury?"

"Does it have something to do with Luo He?"

Inside the palace, everyone held their breath, everyone could sense the elder's immense anger!

In a large hall deep within the palace.

The Wuxiang elder's eyes were bloodshot with burning anger.

"To actually destroy my opportunity in the treasure land," the Wuxiang elder choked with indignation and fury. He still had over twenty reward points left to exchange, and having been rooted in Infinite Space for a long enough time, he could have accumulated more points to exchange for more precious resources.

He paid a great price just for the chance to enter.

Now, it was all ruined.

"I was even willing to apologize, but he didn't give me a chance," the elder fumed with extreme anger. "In reality, in the Land of Origin, the Origin Great Dao is not sealed. This Luo He's strength will only be stronger. He truly isn't afraid of me."

"But, elder I, am not afraid of you either. Even if you become an overlord in the future, what of it?"

The Wuxiang elder was also more powerful in reality, an extreme existence in the First Realm of Godly King, unafraid even when facing the Second Realm of Godly King.

"I don't believe you have no weaknesses. Those close to you by your side, they have no weaknesses," the Wuxiang elder's eyes were cold. "You destroyed my opportunity, you have to pay the price."

"I need all the information about Luo He! All the information on his close associates, disciples."

The Wuxiang elder never thought of enduring and immediately bought this information at the Two Realms Palace.

...

Chu Capital, in a Quiet Room inside Luo Feng's Cave Dwelling, within the Star Tower.

Luo Feng was in meditation.

"This time in Infinite Space, although I killed the Wuxiang elder's body and cut off his opportunity in Infinite Space, his strength should not be underestimated," thought Luo Feng. The opponent had indeed mastered a Godly King Level Secret Technique on the new path; it was just that he encountered me.

With my godly body, Avatar, and Blade Formation, all aspects of my understanding allowed it to be one-sided.

"My 'Great Dao of Life and Death' ultimately hasn't developed a complete branch of the Dao. If I become too arrogant, I might end up like the Wuxiang elder and hit a snag," Luo Feng thought, aware that Infinite Space concealed various powerful ancient beings who might have developed new branches of the Dao.

"I will continue cultivating silently for one hundred eras, accumulate enough depth, and can then consume the Primordial Crystal Spirit Fruit again. This time, I can also use that bottle of Clearing Spirit Liquid," Luo Feng decided.

The Clearing Spirit Liquid, Luo Feng had inquired about its value from his master Emperor Chu, knowing that it was worth even more than a Primordial Crystal Spirit Fruit. Even the elite of the Imperial Clan only receive a portion occasionally. It was Emperor Chu Yu who had given it to Luo Feng.

A bottle of Clearing Spirit Liquid was just one portion.

"Hu." Luo Feng took out a Primordial Crystal Spirit Fruit and began to eat it, with the golden bottle also placed alongside.

Accumulate normally, once accumulated enough, then consume treasures.

With the help of treasures! To advance further!

"The effect of the Primordial Crystal Spirit Fruit is still so miraculous," Luo Feng felt his soul nourished, his thought speed greatly accelerated, then he picked up the golden bottle next to him, pulled out the cork, and drank it all in one gulp.
