Swallowed Star - Chapter 1351
A powerful inheritance was not easily imparted in the world of the ancient civilization. The inheritance of an army! Especially the inheritance of Python River Army was enough to be regarded as a superior inheritance.
Of course, this was only a small portion of the most fundamental part of this superior inheritance. Anything beyond this would need to be exchanged with more military credits! The inheritance of the pulse of Duan Dong River was regarded as a super inheritance, and Luo Feng had the entire set.
After I have mastered this set of secret techniques on blazing my godly power, I will be able to execute the first stage of Extermination, Luo Feng thought. World of Jin is very stringent in its management of the inheritance. If I were to execute Extermination by blazing my godly power but be unable to tell where I learned this secret technique on blazing godly power… I will be sentenced to death.
******
Just as Luo Feng was putting on a show of learning the fundamental inheritance…
In the human territory of the primal universe, in Milky Way Holy Land, Luo Feng’s new Remote Ocean body sat cross-legged in a towering hall on the ninth story. There was nothing in the surroundings; only the vast space could be seen.
“Huh?” He opened his eyes and stood up right away. He turned his head to look into the distance.
Sou!
A streak of light flew by. It was the Ancestral God School’s Double-Face Ancestral God.
“Milky Way Horde Leader.” Double-Face Ancestral God stepped onto the black-jaded floor of the hall on the ninth story and smiled as he looked at Luo Feng.
Luo Feng was surprised as he returned the smile. “Ancestral God, why have you come calling on me?”
“You and I are good friends. Even if there is nothing going on, can’t I just come calling on you?” Double-face Ancestral God teased.
Luo Feng smiled in return. “Of course you can. If you are willing to, you may stay for as long as you please.”
This Double-Face Ancestral God had saved him once. Out of the three great ancestral gods, Luo Feng was indeed most fond of Double-Face Ancestral God.
Double-Face Ancestral God said right away, “Of course I do have a purpose in coming here. Milky Way Horde Leader from the World of Jin, you have gained a lot. Otherwise, you would not have alarmed the willpower of the primal universe origin. My purpose in coming here this time around is to represent the willpower of the primal universe origin.”
“Oh?” Luo Feng was shocked.
Represent the willpower of the origin? Who had said he had gained a lot?
It seemed like the primal universe origin knew a lot about him, which made sense though, as he did not feel constrained when he was in the World of Jin. He had also tried comprehending the memory stones found in the space of inheritance of the Boat of Mausoleum, but he realized he was still unable to view the more profound content. That was when Luo Feng realized that the willpower of the primal universe origin still wielded influence over him.
World of Jin existed within the Universe Ocean, and under the guidance of the willpower of the primal universe origin, it would be strange if there was no control at all.
“I have gained a lot?” Luo Feng laughed. “How so?”
“Milky Way Horde Leader should know,” Double-face Ancestral God said indifferently. “I may not be that clear about it, but according to the willpower of the primal universe origin, out of all the great beings from the first batch to enter the Universe Ocean, you are one of those with the greatest amount gained.”
Luo Feng squinted. The greatest amount gained? Now that he had been accepted into Python River Army, he had gained a set of Python River Armor.
Python River Armor was a true-god level armor and was regarded as a supreme true treasure. However, Luo Feng had discovered that when his Shi Wu Wings were extended into a suit of armor, the armor was still much stronger than the Python River Armor. By donning the armor that was an extension of Shi Wu Wings, any attacks that were weaker than eighth-tier combat power would not be able to harm the godly body under its protection. But Python River Armor was only capable of keeping the godly body safe from any attacks that were below the seventh tier.
As for the magnitude of the weakening effect, both were on par. However, the limit of endurance of Python River Armor was far from the limit of endurance of the armor that was an extension of Shi Wu Wings. If he’d had no means of comparison, he would not have known. But upon comparison, Luo Feng was all the more aware of how impressive Shi Wu Wings were!
Other than gaining the Python River Armor, the most important gain he had made was his identity as a Python River Army warrior! A warrior of a special troop, whether it was military credits or the inheritance that could be exchanged, was greatly superior.
The number of great beings of groups of top powers from the Universe Ocean who had entered Python River for the first time was not that many—around 200 or more. Yet, right from the start, quite a few were already being annihilated. There were some who had managed to sneak their way into the army, but to further worm their way into a troop as special as the Python River Army… Other than Luo Feng, there was no one.
******
Instantly, various thoughts started to surface in Luo Feng’s mind. He looked at Double-Face Ancestral God, who was right before him. “Ancestral God, your purpose here… What is your true intention?”
“I have come under the orders of the willpower of the primal universe origin to guide you.” Double-Face Ancestral God looked at Luo Feng. His entire being radiated oppressive force. Though not overwhelmingly strong, it was obviously still a very powerful force that far surpassed a true god of void space—to the extent of transcendence. Obviously, this was something the universe origin of the primal universe had bestowed upon him. “For a normal reincarnation era, there will not be a fourth most dangerous land appearing,” he articulated slowly. “And this era now… is obviously not normal, which is why a fourth most dangerous land has appeared. This is a great opportunity, but also a great disaster.”
His voice was like a heavy hammer that pounded against Luo Feng’s heart. A great disaster?
Luo Feng frowned. The appearance of that humanoid life form! The willpower of the primal universe origin had provided them with guidance and told them the way to enter the World of Jin. Going such great lengths to help them—it must have had a purpose for doing so. After all, the willpower of the origin was normally so detached. By right, there should be no reason for it to interfere as such.
Obviously, it must have had a purpose! It, who had once suppressed Teacher Origin! It, who had once killed Yuan Ao Master and banished a strange object! It, who had wanted to annihilate three great beings such as Great Thunder Star Master.
All of these factors went to show that the willpower of the primal universe origin had a standpoint of its own.
“Out with it.” Luo Feng looked at Double-face Ancestral God. “What is it that you want me to do?”
“You are going to be the Number One Master of the entire Universe Ocean.” Double-Face Ancestral God slowly made his point. “This is something you cannot deny. Your power is going to be much stronger than Teacher Origin in the future! All the disasters… You need to deal with them. And how should you deal with them is that you need to rely on the World of Jin!”
“Remember!” Double-Face Ancestral God looked at Luo Feng. “Adhering to the rules within the World of Jin, try your best to gain benefits that can allow you to empower yourself… Your strength and power will be the hope of the willpower of the primal universe origin. As a child of the primal universe, whatever does harm to the primal universe will also be harmful to you. Remember, everything is in the World of Jin. You have to get stronger.”
Sou!
Double-Face Ancestral God smiled after he finished saying his piece, then transformed into flowing light and left.
Luo Feng stood in silence at the same spot, gazing into the distance in the direction Double-Face Ancestral God was going.
“The willpower of the origin truly values me,” Luo Feng mumbled to himself in a hushed tone.
Everything that had happened earlier on had allowed Luo Feng to understand this…
The willpower of the origin was unable to make any moves on its own, so in everything that it needed to accomplish, it would have to borrow the hands of other great beings. Apparently, the willpower of the origin had set its eyes on Luo Feng and felt that he would be the one true strongest being in the future! This was the reason it had been providing him with help and guidance all this while. It had the intention of getting Luo Feng to become a keen tool of the “willpower of the origin,” someone who could damage and destroy all enemies.
I… I am the child of the primal universe. Anything that harms it will also harm me? Luo Feng was asking himself this question repeatedly in his heart.
This was obviously telling Luo Feng that the willpower of the primal universe origin stood on the same side as him.
“Whatever you say, I should just believe? The World of Jin appearing… Before Great Thunder Star Master was annihilated, the power he executed was something entirely different from his godly power. The proactive guidance by the willpower of the primal universe origin… Everything has to have a purpose. The willpower of the origin cannot directly attack on its own. So long as my power is strong enough, and I can become the number one master of the entire Universe Ocean, by then, I will truly dominate the right to speak.
“Let’s see… Let’s wait and see what is going to happen. Before whatever is in store for me, I need to brush up on my ability.”
Luo Feng felt no resentment. The willpower of the primal universe origin had wanted him to understand this crisis so he would feel the sense of urgency in elevating himself. He would do just that. After all, there was nothing wrong in making oneself more powerful.
******
Virtual universe, the peak of Thunder Island.
Luo Feng and Primal Chaos City Leader met up.
“Teacher, this is the secret technique on blazing godly power of Python River Army.” Luo Feng had stored records of the inheritance of Python River Army in the virtual universe and sent them over to Primal Chaos City Leader as a message.
“Secret technique on blazing godly power?” Primal Chaos City Leader looked through thoroughly.
“Yes, even for the ancient civilization, this secret technique on blazing godly power can only be created by an extremely strong existence,” Luo Feng explained solemnly. “But Teacher, you have to bear in mind that the moment you enter the World of Jin, such special methods like techniques on blazing of godly power must not be executed. Otherwise, you will be investigated by the army in the most stringent manner… and if you are unable to tell them where you acquired such a technique, you will be sentenced to death. Internally, the World of Jin is extremely strict with how it handles its inheritance.”
Primal Chaos City Leader nodded. “You can rest assured.”
“Also, just a while ago, the willpower of the origin sent me a message through Ancestral God…” Luo Feng said slowly. “He mentioned some kind of great disaster, and he wanted me to do my best to increase my power when I’m in the World of Jin.”
“Humph!” Primal Chaos City Leader gave a hostile snort and said, “I have spoken with Teacher Origin. You need not be bothered about any great disaster. It is only intimidating you. Even if there was a great disaster, it might not be a disaster directed at us. Like East Emperor Holy Land… it survived through countless reincarnation eras, and is it not still going strong? According to Teacher Origin, the willpower of the primal universe origin is not invincible, so you need not be overly concerned. But of course, increasing your power… There is nothing wrong with that.”
Luo Feng nodded.
Yes. The willpower of the origin had decided to use him as its weapon, but that also depended on whether or not he was willing to be used.
“But you have to make sure you grasp the right opportunity. Based on the information I received, there are more and more great beings being annihilated in the World of Jin,” Primal Chaos City Leader said in a solemn tone. “It was said that Divine Eye Clan had sent in its army, but the moment its army entered, it was killed in the military camp. Only a handful survived. Regardless, groups of top powers of Universe Ocean would have to wait another century before they could enter. Now, you have an advantage over them, so you must try your best to grab the right opportunity.”
Luo Feng nodded with a smile. The pitiful Divine Eye Clan, killed in the military camp? The ordinary army was more scattered and dispersed. While the special army was prohibited from mutual killing in the camp, the ordinary army was looser on such discipline. Only by standing out from the crowd to be accepted into the special army would one be able to truly receive specialized cultivation.
******
World of Jin, East Army, military camp of the “law masters” of the Python River Army, the island of the fundamental inheritance.
No matter how anxious the various groups of top powers of Universe Ocean were, Luo Feng had come to the World of Jin in peace.
“Milky Way, tomorrow is the day we must receive our military mission,” Wu He said, flying over from afar. “This is a disaster-level mission. Have you gained anything from cultivating on the fundamental inheritance?”
“I have mastered the secret technique on blazing godly power,” Luo Feng said casually.
Wu He’s eyes widened instantly. The wings attached to his neck also stopped their fanning motion.
“This… It has only been how long since you started?” Wu He was shocked. Then he senselessly said, “When you have yet to receive that technique of blazing godly power, you are already able to defeat me. That blade technique of yours is especially terrifying. The power of your blade could be so well-condensed that it could penetrate my armor without causing any external damage and yet cause my godly body to be greatly consumed. And your close-combat dodging allows you to transform so quickly that I have no time to resist. Being your target and enduring so many blows from you, an entire half of my godly body was used up.”
Luo Feng merely grinned in response.
Back then, they had battled for half an hour. 3,000 had turned up for the selection, but not more than 1,000 had survived to the end. It was hard to imagine how long it took Luo Feng to kill and how fast his blade was. The number of blows hacking onto Wu He’s body was unknown, but it had destroyed 50 percent of his godly body.
“Let’s go have a good rest,” Wu He said. “We are heading out tomorrow, and I really hope we can make it back alive.”
