Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

Chapter 121: Episode 3 Chapter 5: Meeting with the Primordial Ancestor

In the northern part of the Flame Wind Ancient Country, within Yinju City in the Beijiu Chaos State.

Yinju City, as a third-rank large city of the Flame Wind Ancient Country, was comparable in size to Huyang City. The garrisoning forces here far surpassed those of the peripheral national city garrisons.

A single city's military strength was enough to sweep through Jiujiang Primal Chaos State and Liu Yin Primal Chaos State.

"According to Luo Feng, his servant Luo Sa should arrive in Yinju City today," said Primoridal Ancestor, sitting alone at a high floor of an ordinary tavern, drinking and watching the outside world.

As the Deputy General of the City Defense Army, Primoridal Ancestor had specifically taken leave.

The City Defense Army had two groups of soldiers who could alternate shifts. After all, when cultivating in seclusion, one might require a lot of time, hence another Deputy General took over while Primoridal Ancestor was on leave.

"Divine Monarch," the tavern attendant said respectfully, bringing some delicacies with a very humble gesture.

A true god, and also a Deputy General of the City Defense Army, was indeed an existence not to be provoked by an ordinary tavern.

Primoridal Ancestor drank his wine and ate his food, waiting patiently.

"Boom—,"

Suddenly, a terrifying aura spread from afar.

Primoridal Ancestor looked up and saw a young man riding a serpentine exotic beast flying within Yinju City. Following behind him were some trusted aides riding a Flying Boat.

"It's the Garrison Commander's second son, 'General Yu,'" Primoridal Ancestor recognized instantly. This young man was the most unruly figure in all of Yinju City.

The garrison of Yinju City was a Guest Official of the Primal Chaos Realm, responsible for guarding the frontier cities.

He had two sons; the elder one was a disciple of a Godly King, while the younger was kept by his side.

"This is a Primal Chaos Realm exotic beast, controlled by a secret technique. It is said that the Garrison Commander paid a substantial price to obtain it from a Godly King to serve as his son's mount and protector," Primoridal Ancestor reflected inwardly.

A Primal Chaos Realm exotic beast used just as a mount— who in the city, among the eternal true gods, would not envy that?

And who would dare provoke the young General Yu? After all, the protective treasures he possessed, especially his mount, were fearsome.

"Uncle Han, I heard my father has left his secluded meditation?" the young General Yu, brimming with excitement, had hurried back from outside the city.

"Master just left his meditation; young master didn't need to rush over so quickly," the serpentine beast telepathically replied. It had been completely enslaved, its original ferocity long gone, which gave the Garrison Commander the confidence to let it protect his son.

"I want my father to see my trophy, Uncle Han, hurry, hurry!" urged the young General Yu.

The great serpent slightly sped up, darting twice, allowing the trailing trusted aides to clearly see it arriving at the 'Garrison Mansion'.

"We seek a lineage and cannot obtain one; yet General Yu can use a Primal Chaos Realm exotic beast as a mount."

"Just gradually accumulate merit points. With enough, you can still exchange them for a mount," was the discussion among many eternal true gods within the city, filled only with envy.

This was merely the son of a Primal Chaos Realm Guest Official. The sons and core members of the Imperial Clan of the Flame Wind Ancient Country had resources exceeding these by untold amounts.

…

"Luo Feng mentioned that he is now a Guest Official of the Flame Wind Ancient Country," Primoridal Ancestor watched as General Yu rode his mount out of sight, "The resources he can obtain must be comparable to those of Yinju City's Garrison Commander."

At that moment, the straightforward appearing Morosa, with some trusted aides, subdued their auras and arrived at the base of the tavern.

This tavern was the place agreed upon by Primoridal Ancestor and Luo Feng.

"Primoridal Ancestor?" Morosa was a being of the Primal Chaos Realm and immediately identified Primoridal Ancestor inside the tavern.

"You all wait here," commanded Morosa before silently entering the tavern.

The trusted aides dispatched by Marquis Chu Yu could only wait there.

They still did not know… the true purpose of this trip! They only knew to obey the commands of Luo He's servant.

Inside the tavern.

Primoridal Ancestor suddenly turned his head as a straightforward figure pushed the door and entered.

"Luo Sa?" Primoridal Ancestor, having previously been given a detailed description of Morosa's appearance by Luo Feng, recognized him at a glance.

"Deputy Commander?" Morosa gave a slight smile, "I come by the command of Master Luo He."

Primoridal Ancestor nodded with a slight smile.

"We will leave Yinju City now," said Morosa.

"Not coordinating with the City Defense Army?" asked Primoridal Ancestor.

"The fewer the disturbances, the better. As for the handover, everything will be properly arranged," Morosa explained.

Morosa considered this operation to be very cautious; the trusted aides he led did not even know their final destination! However, the struggles among the 'Seven First-Rank Marquises' of Emperor Chu's Lineage were brutally fierce. Thus, no amount of caution was excessive.

As long as they could safely return to Luo Feng's Cave mansion, then everything would be in order.

Morosa said, "We need the Deputy Commander to temporarily reside within a Spatial Secret Treasure."

"Haha, Luo He had already mentioned this," Primoridal Ancestor stood up.

Morosa nodded, then waved his hand and encapsulated Primoridal Ancestor into the Spatial Secret Treasure he carried, quietly exiting the tavern to meet up with the trusted aides.

"Let's go."

Although the trusted aides were still very confused, they obediently left quietly.

If they encountered resistance, the trusted aides would present the "First-Rank Marquis Command" to handle it. If there were no obstacles... they would just leave quietly.

Unnoticed, the Primordial Ancestor had quietly left Yinju City.

"Hmm? Deputy Commander Yuan's Identity Command Token, how did it disappear?"

At the City Defense Army, it was possible to pinpoint the location of all members at any time, but now the whereabouts of Primordial Ancestor's token could not be tracked.

Since it was only a Deputy Commander, the City Defense Army immediately reported the news! This message, in a short time, couldn't reach the Garrison Commander.

...

The Garrison Commander of Yinju City was spending time with his second son.

"Hmm?" The Garrison Commander suddenly received a piece of information.

"A First-Rank Marquis of the Imperial Clan 'Marquis Chu Yu' requested a transfer order, moving the Deputy Commander 'Yuan'?" the Garrison Commander frowned slightly, "A First-Rank Marquis making a transfer request for just a minor deputy commander?"

This kind of order, once passed by the Imperial Clan, was already confirmed. He, as the Garrison Commander, had no right to object.

In the Flame Wind Ancient Country, the Imperial Clan managed all aspects of the nation, even the distribution of some tasks was done by the core of the Imperial Clan. Even the most distinguished Guest Officials... only had the right to choose tasks and refuse missions; they had no right to interfere in the management of the Flame Wind Ancient Country.

With Yuan transferred away, the Garrison Commander had no right to object, only the right to be informed.

"Check where the City Defense Army's Deputy Commander 'Yuan' is?" the Garrison Commander started to give orders.

"His Identity Command Token cannot be locked? He probably has left Yinju City already?" the Garrison Commander frowned slightly, "This Yuan, his identity must be extraordinary. Marquis Chu Yu must be worried about my interference spoiling his plans."

Even with his official power, the Garrison Commander had no right to stop it.

But as a powerful Guest Official of the Primal Chaos Realm, he naturally had the ability to obstruct without anyone knowing.

******

By the time the other First-Rank Marquises of Emperor Chu's Lineage noticed this transfer order, Yuan had already left Yinju City.

Five days later.

In Chu Capital, Morosa had quietly returned to Luo Feng's cave mansion.

"Master." Morosa, along with Primordial Ancestor, came to report back on the mission.

Luo Feng had naturally come out early to welcome him and spotted the grey-robed man walking with Morosa at a glance.

"Yuan." Luo Feng smiled as he spoke, the two of them had long discussed their respective names in the Land of Origin. The title 'Primordial Ancestor'... would immediately make outsiders realize the special significance of Primordial Ancestor to Luo Feng.

"Luo He." The Primordial Ancestor also looked at Luo Feng with a smile, calling him by this name.

"Master, everything went very smoothly," Morosa said.

Luo Feng nodded: "Very well, you've also worked hard, go rest now."

Morosa understood that his master and Primordial Ancestor had matters to discuss, feeling that... Primordial Ancestor and master seemed even closer, he could only obediently leave.

"Yuan, come with me." Luo Feng immediately took Primordial Ancestor into the quiet room, entering the Star Tower.

...

Inside one of the layers of the Star Tower.

"Look." Luo Feng pointed ahead, where a vast amount of items were stored, including heritage scriptures, various rare treasures of heaven and earth, refined precious medicines, and Weapon Secret Treasures, "These are what I confiscated after defeating the Heartshadow Sect, they have limited help for those in the Primal Chaos Realm, but there are many treasures that aid the cultivation of eternal true gods."

The Heartshadow Sect, being set to train elite disciples, naturally had a systematic collection of various rare treasures and artifacts.

"So many?" Primordial Ancestor also saw the scriptures leading to the Primal Chaos Realm, Godly King scriptures were rare, but Primal Chaos Realm scriptures were plentiful.

"Previously, in Yinju City, I diligently sought ways to accumulate merit points to exchange for a good inheritance," Primordial Ancestor lamented, "yet now before my eyes is a pile stored."

Luo Feng laughed.

Before, he wanted to help Primordial Ancestor, he had to first learn an inheritance himself, then through the Memory Stone, teach it to Primordial Ancestor back in his homeland in the Primordial Cosmos Region.

Now that the two of them had met in the Land of Origin, Primordial Ancestor could learn by himself.

"These resources, Primordial Ancestor, feel free to choose," Luo Feng said.

"Resources still need to be properly planned; many of our Human Race descendants will have to come over later," Primordial Ancestor looked at the massive amount of resources; he had previously been just an ordinary eternal true god, a minor Deputy Commander in the City Defense Army, all his treasures combined were not worth one hundred thousand Cosmic Sand, yet here were treasures worth billions of Cosmic Sand.

Luo Feng laughed, "By the time other Human Race cultivators come over, these treasures will really not be worth mentioning." Experience new tales on m v|l e'-NovelBin.net

Not to mention anything else.

Just digesting the "First Calamity" of the "Eight Tribulations Life Form" properly, perfecting his Transformation Method, he would be enough to advance further.

"Primordial Ancestor, you practice here slowly, just say the word if you want to go out," Luo Feng said.

"You go ahead." Primordial Ancestor was currently full of fighting spirit, especially since the inheritances and resources in front of him could allow him to thoroughly study and utilize them.

Luo Feng nodded, then immediately disappeared, going to his own layer of space in the Star Tower.

Luo Feng was in the middle of his cultivation but had specifically come out to meet Primordial Ancestor.

Now he continued to study the "Chapter of Life Spirituality" in the "First Calamity" of the "Eight Tribulations Life Form"; previously, Luo Feng had learned the simple application of life spirituality by studying Primal Chaos Layer Creature. However, this "Chapter of Life Spirituality" contained all the mysteries of the Life Spirituality Lineage, with many applications and Secret Techniques.

Luo Feng wasn't in a hurry to perfect his Transformation Method but was first gradually learning and accumulating.
