Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

Chapter 94: Volume 2 Chapter 20 Siege (Part 1)

```

After leaving the Dream Flower Tower, Morosa merely used void shuttling twice to arrive above an ordinary cave mansion in the Snow Winter District of Huyang City, where creatures of the Thousand Leaves Vine Clan resided.

"Divine Monarch, Araya has told us everything, we voluntarily follow you to the outside of the city," a true god of void space from the Thousand Leaves Vine Clan said respectfully as he performed a ritual bow.

Although a small number of the clan's members were not present in the cave mansion, there was clearly no time left, and it was already fortunate to be able to take away the vast majority.

"Good," Morosa, who appeared rather honest and simple, nodded and with a wave of his hand directly collected all the creatures and buildings of the entire cave mansion. Only the bare ground and the lakes were left.

While rescuing the Thousand Leaves Vine Clan, Morosa also transmitted his thoughts to Luo Feng: "Master, I have already rescued the Dream Flower Tower Master as well as Araya, and nearly all creatures of the Dream Flower Tower. Araya asked for my help, so I conveniently saved the Thousand Leaves Vine Clan as well."

"Is everything going smoothly?" Luo Feng asked.

"Fairly smoothly, the Heartshadow Sect knows I am the master's servant and did not dare to act against me. Although they wanted to stop me from saving the cultivators of the Dream Flower Tower, I ignored them," Morosa transmitted back.

"The disciples of the Heavenly Flame Sect have established nine artificing shops, and of these, I will need your help rescuing the cultivators from these three," Luo Feng transmitted back, and sent Morosa the detailed addresses of the three artificing shops, "I have already clashed with the Heartshadow Sect, and if they see you again, they might act against you. You need to be careful."

"Haha, it would be better if they act," Morosa said excitedly.

"We must act quickly. I suspect that the Heartshadow Sect has started to gather forces to deal with me now and we cannot delay for long," Luo Feng transmitted.

"Don't worry," Morosa said confidently.

It had been five eras since he reached the Primal Chaos Realm and he had already passed the most vulnerable stage. His godly body had grown to its limits! And his understanding of the Great Dao of Destruction Origin was getting deeper and deeper.

Even if he suppressed his strength to a level comparable to Elder Hearteye, his methods could be much more enigmatic. If he wanted to leave, the Heartshadow Sect couldn't stop him at all.

Morosa naturally did not take the Heartshadow Sect seriously, but what he was afraid of was being pursued and killed by the ancient Godly Kings of the Land of Origin, so he had to do everything according to the master's command, perfectly acting the role of a "protector."

"Sigh." Although Morosa could have arrived at another artificing shop in one step, he still used three void shuttles to finally arrive at one.

...

The Master of the Heartshadow Sect and the Eighteen Elders gathered, some in their true bodies and some as Divine Power Incarnations.

They all watched the scenes revealed by the Sect Great Formation. In one scene, Luo Feng went to an artificing shop and boldly killed some eternal true gods who had slaughtered others and took away all the cultivators from the shop. In another scene, Morosa was also rescuing cultivators from an artificing shop, and upon discovering the slaughterers, he too took action and killed them.

"The servant of Lord Luo He, called Luo Sa, had always disguised himself as a true god of void space. But according to information, Lord Luo He took his servant Luo Sa with him to hunt down Divine Monarch Xue Yun! We have long suspected that this Luo Sa was no ordinary being," they discussed.

"Even under the suppression of the Sect Great Formation, this Luo Sa can easily shuttle through the void! Relying on Mechanical Flow Secret Treasures is one thing, but if it's based on his own strength, he may well surpass most of the elders."

"One Luo He, one Luo Sa. With such strength and yet Luo Sa willingly serves as a servant, he could possibly be a protector sent by a great power. Their strengths should complement each other," they deduced.

These elders were extraordinarily insightful.

They were well aware that two extremely powerful eternal true gods skilled in the ways of the Primal Chaos Realm would likely specialize in different directions. But once they work together, they could make up for each other's shortcomings and confront most dangerous predicaments.

"Once they join forces, it will be even harder to kill them," some of the elders began to worry.

"The force we've sent out is powerful enough," the Master of the Heartshadow Sect said calmly and confidently.

```

Suddenly—

"Sect Leader, I heard that Luo He's servant 'Luo Sa' is also very strong. Do you need me to take action?" a message was sent to the Sect Leader.

"Qiu Yi, you are the hidden power of our Heartshadow Sect, and it is time for you to act when we battle with the great army of the Marquis of Jiu Jiang," the Master of the Heartshadow Sect responded, "To deal with Luo He and Luo Sa this time, we can only use some of our public power.

"I have dispatched the Heart Devil Kite, the Six Shadows Killing Formation, and the Great Destruction Ultimate Formation. These already account for fifty percent of the Heartshadow Sect's power, which should be enough to deal with them," the Master of the Heartshadow Sect responded.

"Alright," Qiu Yi did not say more.

The Master of the Heartshadow Sect thought of the disciple Qiu Yi from his sect and felt somewhat relieved.

He had not expected that assembling the disciples scattered across the Land of Origin would yield such a pleasant surprise. Initially, Qiu Yi, who could only be considered a somewhat excellent Eternal True God, had grown to a point close to that of Elder Hearteye.

The most important thing was that Qiu Yi had cultivated the Godly King Level inheritance "Heartshadow Secret Art" to an exceedingly profound extent and could even control one of the sect-protecting Mechanical Treasures, the 'Demon General of Heartshadow'.

The Heartshadow Sect had a total of five Godly King Level inheritances, and any Eternal True God Level disciple who passed the test could learn parts of the Godly King Level inheritance.

Among these five inheritances, the "Heartshadow Secret Art" was held in the highest regard and was also the most difficult to cultivate. The entire name of the Heartshadow Sect was derived from the "Heartshadow Secret Art."

Once Qiu Yi managed to control the sect-protecting treasure 'Demon General of Heartshadow', he would be even more difficult to deal with than Elder Hearteye's Heart Devil Kite.

"This Qiu Yi is quite arrogant and unwilling to interact much with the other Elders. With his strength, he is fully capable of taking on the position of an Elder. It's a pity that once this war is over, he will leave," the Master of the Heartshadow Sect was helpless, "Not just him, even Elder Hearteye will leave after the war."

They had come back this time, either because of the gratitude for the teachings of the sect or because of the orders from the Primal Chaos Realm.

Even more than half of the disciples of the Heartshadow Sect, who had already taken root in many places across the Land of Origin, ignored the summoning of the Heartshadow Sect.

"This Luo He is really ruthless and vicious."

"The disciples of the Heartshadow Sect that were found and slaughtered were killed effortlessly."

The Sect Leader and Eighteen Elders watched anxiously.

"Elder Hearteye, have you not arrived yet?" They looked towards the Divine Power Incarnation of Elder Hearteye.

"Just by controlling the Heart Devil Kite, I am only on par with him. I cannot stop him at all. Once I appear, he might directly flee," Elder Hearteye spoke, "I am waiting for the 'Six Shadows Killing Formation' to join up. Then I, along with the Six Shadows Killing Formation, will trap him. After that, when the Great Destruction Ultimate Formation is activated, we can completely annihilate him."

The Great Destruction Ultimate Formation, which required three hundred sixty Eternal True Gods to operate, was one of the genuine killing moves of the Heartshadow Sect.

...

"Lord Luo He and his servant Luo Sa have both taken action, and they are rescuing the disciples of the Heavenly Flame Sect who established the Artificing Shop."

"Both of them are quite ruthless when they take action."

"This Luo Sa's power seems to be not less than that of Divine Monarch Xue Yun," the leaders of the Five Great Families in the City Owner's Mansion watched the monitored scene with some surprise.

Luo Feng's strength being considerable was normal, but the strength of his servant Luo Sa was somewhat surprising to them.

"When Her Royal Highness the Princess came on behalf of the nation's ruler to recruit Luo He, Luo He refused. He really does have an important background," said the Lord of Huyang City. "This servant Luo Sa keeps a low profile, yet his strength is close to matching Luo He's."

"Haha, the stronger the two of them are, the better."

"With Lord Luo He and his servant assisting, the help in the war will be tremendous." The leaders of the Five Great Families felt their hopes for victory rise significantly.

After all, an eternal true god of such caliber is equivalent to an elite army. Not to mention that two had appeared all at once.

...

At the Flame Wind Pavilion, Pavilion Master Emperor Chu Yu was also watching the progress of the civil war within the city.

"This Luo He really does have some background," Emperor Chu Yu watched and said with a smile.

"No matter what background, it is not comparable to that of Emperor Chu's lineage," the Deputy Pavilion Master said.

The Imperial Clan of Flame Wind Ancient Country is recognized as the most substantial support in the Land of Origin! The only ones who could match them were the Imperial Clan of Thunder Ancient Country!

Of course, if the legendary 'Yuan' were willing to take disciples, the attraction would naturally be even greater. But Yuan was not the type to take leisure in teaching disciples earnestly; to gain an opportunity left by him was already extraordinarily fortunate.

"Judging by his moves, his accumulation of realm mastery is profound, but somewhat chaotic," Emperor Chu Yu observed. "His Primal Chaos Realm technique contains the flavor of both the Great Dao of Life and the Path of Destruction. And moreover, it's a mixture of both."

Emperor Chu Yu shook his head slightly, "From this, it can be seen that his background inheritance is quite ordinary, probably just a regular Godly King at best."

"Yes."

The Deputy Pavilion Master nodded, "The supreme laws contain the Origin Great Dao, and each and every Origin Great Dao provides a clear direction. To mix the two... indicates that there is no direction at all, only groping in the dark. Progress will be very difficult."

These imperial clansmen are very clear, one must not be greedy in cultivation! By focusing on a single path and having a complete inheritance and clear Origin Great Dao guidance, one can naturally progress much more smoothly.

Merging different Great Daos?

Without an inheritance or clear guidance, the difficulty can increase by more than a hundredfold!

"No matter, once he returns to the Ancient Country and receives part of Emperor Chu's lineage inheritance, he will know how to cultivate properly," Emperor Chu Yu said.

******

Luo Feng directly collected all the artifact refiners, apprentices, and customers in every Artificing Shop he passed, and wherever he knew there was an eternal true god of the Heartshadow Sect committing slaughter, Luo Feng also casually killed them.

"Strange, why is the Heartshadow Sect moving so slowly?" Luo Feng had long been prepared, but he had yet to encounter any powerful killing moves of the Heartshadow Sect.

Luo Feng had already taken over the fifth Artificing Shop.

"Lord Luo He," the artifact refiners and apprentices of the Artificing Shop were all excited. As for the surrounding disciples of the Heartshadow Sect, they scattered and fled without hesitation upon seeing Luo Feng.

"Hmm?"

Luo Feng's Realm of Life and Death sensed something, and he immediately first swept up the many cultivators from the Artificing Shop with a wave of his hand, then looked up into the distance.

In the distance, a black avian-shaped Mechanical Treasure appeared, along with six super-large Mechanical Secret Treasures forming a formation.

"Heart Devil Kite!" Luo Feng recognized it at a glance, one of the Heartshadow Sect's renowned Sect-Protecting Treasures—the Heart Devil Kite.

The Heartshadow Sect's Sect-Protecting Treasures were all very strong, containing many mystical aspects. However, throughout the long years, some were lost, and the remaining treasured treasures... the Heartshadow Sect mostly could not utilize them.

The threshold for wielding Sect-Protecting Treasures was extremely high.

"Morosa, another Artificing Shop will be left to you as well," Luo Feng transmitted another address to Morosa.

Out of the nine Artificing Shops, he had collected five, with the other four having to be left to Morosa.

"Don't worry, master, leave it to me," Morosa was still quite relaxed, as he had not encountered any significant resistance.

"Luo He!" this massive black avian, with eyes emitting a blood-red gleam, declared, "My Heartshadow Sect has shown you respect, yet you act so recklessly; you are truly seeking your own death."

"Spare me the nonsense." Luo Feng was disinclined to waste words, as the longer time passed, the stronger the forces that the Heartshadow Sect could mobilize would be.

Boom!

Luo Feng shot up into the sky in an instant.

Hum~~~~ From the high in the sky, the dark great formation unleashed its full might, engulfing and binding with its vast dark vortex. Meanwhile, the Heart Devil Kite and the 'Six Shadows Killing Formation' both moved at the same time.

"Hmph." At this moment, Luo Feng ignited his Divine Power, burning it as he deployed the Realm of Life and Death.

A vast domain that seemed like a Taiji cloud spread in all directions, directly crushing the dark vortex!

After all, this was a super large-scale Sect Great Formation, which, in targeting an individual, had only a bit more power than the original formation of Huyang City, far inferior to Luo Feng's Realm of Life and Death.

The enormous Taiji cloud raged in all directions, with Luo Feng standing in the center, holding the Bloodshadow Knife in hand.

"Seal."

Six gigantic, blurred shadows stood in six directions, as if they trapped this domain of heaven and earth, imprisoning Luo Feng as well.

The Heart Devil Kite let out a piercing screech, lunging to attack Luo Feng.

This screech struck directly at Luo Feng's will!

"Die." While launching a will attack, the Heart Devil Kite fiercely struck at Luo Feng, its claws tearing through space, causing rifts in the void.

"Boom!!!!"

Under the will attack,

It was as if a fragile egg, carrying an unstoppable will, fiercely smashed into a mountain!
