Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

Chapter 72: Chapter 66 Marquis Liu Yin (End of this series)

In the vast Land of Origin, there are countless forces, and it is quite remarkable for any of them to establish a Divine Kingdom. The strength of these nations varies greatly; countries like Yu Kingdom and Shi Kingdom are considered second-tier nations, significantly weaker than the Mountain Sitting Guest's Jin State, which is a real fringe small country.

Like the legendary Tianmu Kingdom, which possesses a Sector Beast, its strength far surpasses that of the Shi Kingdom, Yu Kingdom, and other countries, rightly claiming the status of a first-class nation.

Yet… the Flame Wind Ancient Country and the Thunder Ancient Country surpass all other nations.

"According to the information described in the legacy, the most powerful in the Flame Wind Ancient Country is the Imperial Clan! The Imperial Clan is fiercely competitive internally, divided into thirteen branches, each of which is eligible to vie for the throne.

Emperor Chu's Lineage is one of these thirteen branches!" Luo Feng finally understood the grand origin of the Master of the Flame Wind Pavilion.

"I never expected to meet His Highness Emperor Chu Yu in this small border city," Luo Feng said politely.

"I am not entitled to be called 'Your Highness'; I am just an eternal true god. You can simply call me Chu Yu," Emperor Chu Yu said with a smile. The other descendants of the Imperial Clan usually put on quite a show outside, but he had no regard for his kinsmen.

To Emperor Chu Yu, anyone who lacked strength was merely a waste within the Imperial Clan.

Why else would the Imperial Clan allow thirteen branches to compete, if not because there were too many incompetents?

Emperor Chu Yu generally didn't reveal his identity while wandering outside, for the name 'Emperor Chu Yu' was enough for anyone slightly knowledgeable to guess his connection with Emperor Chu's Lineage. Usually, he just went by 'Chu Yu.'

"Brother Luo He, you were able to slay Xue Yun, which clearly shows that in all aspects like godly body, realm, and willpower, you have reached an extremely high pinnacle. Within Yu Kingdom, there are very few who could compare to you," Emperor Chu Yu said with a smile, "If you can comprehend the Primal Chaos Laws and become a Primal Chaos Overlord, I can help by recommending you.

I dare not promise anything else, but becoming a Guest Elder of Emperor Chu's Lineage should not be difficult."

"A recommendation to Emperor Chu's Lineage of Flame Wind Ancient Country?" Luo Feng couldn't help but ask, "Brother Chu Yu, you think so highly of me?"

The more he knew, the more he understood how strict the two great ancient countries were in recruiting Guest Elders.

His mentor, Mountain Sitting Guest, wanted to enter the core of the two great ancient countries, but neither would entertain him. To them… a regular Godly King held no significance for the ancient countries.

"Even if you become a Primal Chaos Overlord from the Law Lineage, my Emperor Chu's Lineage generally would not recruit you. But I am willing to recruit you," Emperor Chu Yu said, looking at Luo Feng, "I don't care about your strength; I care about your character."

"You have been in Huyang City for over two decades, and I have seen clearly. Compassion for the weak, deep hatred for the evil, for the sake of your friend Shang Tianyan, you relentlessly pursued Yutian Xu, Yutian Yi, and Xue Yun in anger," Emperor Chu Yu said smiling, "You deeply value loyalty and righteousness, and naturally, I am willing to befriend you.

Nowadays in the Land of Origin, some mighty individuals possess high talent but are selfish and ruthless, who knows when you could be betrayed."

Luo Feng understood.

It turns out that everything he had done had made the Imperial Clan of the Flame Wind Ancient Country admire him.

"Of course, the premise for the recommendation is that I must become a Primal Chaos Overlord, and then I'll be qualified to recommend Guest Elders. Of course, you must also be of the Law Lineage in the Primal Chaos Realm, which is already the lowest threshold for recruiting Guest Elders," Emperor Chu Yu said.

The Deputy Pavilion Master laughed and said, "Luo He, remember never to fully align yourself with Yu Kingdom just in case you can't break free later. Such remote small countries ultimately have too few opportunities."

"The Monarch of Yu Country is just a Guest Elder of my Flame Wind Ancient Country," Emperor Chu Yu said, "Some remote small countries can't access the real secrets of the Land of Origin, not to mention top-level resources."

"It's the same with the Master of the Shi Kingdom, who because of his skill in cuisine, is favored by the high echelons of the Flame Wind Ancient Country, which is why his influence is so extensive," the Deputy Pavilion Master also said.

Luo Feng was secretly shocked.

The Master of the Shi Kingdom skilled in cuisine? Favored by the high echelons of the Flame Wind Ancient Country? There was even this layer of relationship, something his own collected intelligence did not record.

"Today is just a preliminary conversation; everything must wait until both you and I reach the Law Lineage Primal Chaos Realm," Emperor Chu Yu said.

"Thank you, Brother Chu Yu," Luo Feng was very grateful to him.

Soon, Luo Feng took his leave and left.

"You're recruiting Luo He so early?" the Deputy Pavilion Master laughed.

"Once I achieve the Primal Chaos Realm and get cultivated by our clan, it will be too late to recruit," Emperor Chu Yu said, "While I am still relatively free now, I should look for a few suitable assistants."

"You seem very confident," the Deputy Pavilion Master said.

"I have completely mastered the nine moves of the Primal Chaos Realm as recorded in the secret tome, which complement each other well. I feel I am very close to the complete Primal Chaos Laws," Emperor Chu Yu said.

The Deputy Pavilion Master was very pleased: "A Primal Chaos Overlord with unlimited godly bodies from the Law Lineage? Hahaha, once you succeed, a massive amount of resources from within our clan will be utilized on you. It turns out I made the right choice in helping you!"

In the Land of Origin, there were quite a few with unlimited godly bodies who became Primal Chaos Overlords from the Law Lineage, but the two great ancient countries did not care about them.

However, if such a genius existed within the Imperial Clan, that would be different, naturally they would fully cultivate them!

"Uncle, you have helped me too much; I remember it all," Emperor Chu Yu said.

...

Primal Chaos Armor Cave Mansion No. 913.

Moyu Qingyan was waiting alone there.

"Yutian Xu, Yutian Yi and even Xue Yun have all been killed; according to what my father said, it's very likely it was the master who did it?" Moyu Qingyan thought about how the master had not returned all night and felt it was very possible.

"Divine Monarch Xue Yun's bounty was a full ten million Cosmic Sand, within Huyang City, even the city owner's mansion could do nothing about him. Could my master really have killed him?"

Moyu Qingyan was alone in the cave mansion, lost in wild thoughts, following his master over these years, he found his master unfathomable.

Whoosh—

The main gate of the cave mansion suddenly opened, and a Flying Boat entered, Luo Feng and Morosa alighted from the Flying Boat.

"Master," Moyu Qingyan immediately greeted them.

"In the coming times, I will have quite a few visitors," Luo Feng said, "Besides a very select few important guests, all others must be refused outright."

"Yes, Master," Moyu Qingyan, having been in service for so long, clearly understood who the important guests were.

Moreover, from his master's words, Moyu Qingyan also realized that it was likely his own master who had killed Xue Yun.

"Stop guessing, Yutian Xu, Yutian Yi, and Xue Yun were all killed by the master," Morosa said directly, "This news won't take long to spread throughout the city."

Luo Feng nodded.

He had killed several strong individuals from the Shi Kingdom mercilessly, and those from the Shi Kingdom must have had a chance to send out a message before dying.

Moreover, the city owner's mansion was also aware that he was the one who had acted.

With so many aware, it was bound to become widely known soon enough.

"Master is formidable," Moyu Qingyan felt honored.

"You should concentrate on your cultivation, you haven't even mastered the Ten Fundamental Laws yet," Morosa urged, "Considering I taught you personally, it's quite a disgrace."

"I will certainly focus," Moyu Qingyan responded immediately.

"Morosa and I are going to seclude ourselves now," Luo Feng declared, and then he led Morosa to the underground hall.

In the underground hall.

He first released the Star Tower, and both Luo Feng and Morosa entered it.

"I've given you your food." Luo Feng placed all the corpses of eternal true gods in one of the layers of the Star Tower's space, "You can digest it slowly on your own."

"Thank you, Master. I have a feeling that this time my strength will increase significantly, maybe enough to reach the Primal Chaos Realm," Morosa said excitedly.

Among the various foods this time, the first was the corpse of Yutian Xu, whose bloodline was extraordinary, and his godly body was comparable to the unlimited godly bodies, the assistance provided by devouring this godly body... far exceeded ordinary godly bodies.

And the corpse of Xue Yun was even more attractive to Morosa than that of Yutian Xu.

This was indeed an unprecedented feast!

Immediately, Morosa dived into his designated layer in the Star Tower and started to enjoy the sumptuous meal.

"Morosa's strength is increasing rapidly, maybe he will reach the Primal Chaos Realm before me," Luo Feng thought, "Unfortunately, any normal cultivator understanding the 'Law of Primal Chaos' has to accumulate it slowly."

Even Emperor Chu Yu, of the imperial family of the Flame Wind Ancient Country, also had to wander through various places in the Land of Origin, enduring long years of arduous cultivation.

Comparing cultivation speeds with Morosa was indeed asking for self-punishment.

"My spiritual will should be sufficient now," Luo Feng considered.

Even when he was still a True God, his spiritual will had reached the peak of Primal Chaos Overlord!

Lately, he broke through from True God to eternal true god in a short time! His godly body was much stronger, and his soul was much more powerful as well.

Although a weak soul can also have strong will,

the soul is the bearer of will; the weaker the soul, the more difficult it is to enhance will.

"My soul now is much stronger than when I was a True God, and having cultivated the Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique and the Seven Emotions of Heart Refining Technique from the Lie Yuan Technique for over two decades, I feel that I have been making slow progress, but there has been no qualitative change yet."

Will, transitioning from the Primal Chaos Realm to Godly King, is indeed a fundamental transformation and quite challenging.

"The resources I've gained this time are plentiful enough that I need to acquire some treasures specifically for will cultivation," Luo Feng firmly decided, "With the bounty this time and numerous spoils of war, nearly 30 million Cosmic Sand. Plus what Brother Shang gave, accumulating just over 30 million Cosmic Sand. I must transform these resources into strength!"

Being so wealthy, it was natural to accelerate his own cultivation pace.

...

Shi Kingdom, Liu Yin Primal Chaos State, within a secluded hall.

A figure in dark red armor sat there, his eyes two blazing orbs of crimson flame, spreading an aura of dark calamity.

"Yutian Xu, Yutian Yi, and Xue Yun, all dead?" Marquis Liu Yin whispered softly, "This Luo He, a close friend of Shang Tianyan, went on a vengeful killing spree after Shang Tianyan's death?"

"His nature of detesting evil makes it difficult to use him for my purposes," Marquis Liu Yin realized.

He reached out to touch a crystal sphere in front of him.

This crystal sphere was a complete universe personally crafted by a Godly King, with an internal space of trillions of light-years in diameter, teeming with countless creatures living and cultivating.

He cherished this crystal sphere, for the universe had nurtured some of his subordinates and even produced hundreds of eternal true gods, all small feats in his eyes.

What he loved most... was the feeling of controlling the entire evolutionary process of the universe and the lives of countless creatures, which was also a form of cultivation for spiritual will.

"With Luo He in Huyang City, the original plan is no longer suitable," Marquis Liu Yin thought, "Well then, let's concede some resources of Huyang City and have the Heartshadow Sect make a move."
