Qianxing Tower was merely a relatively ordinary business establishment in Chudu, but today marked its most extraordinary day since its founding. Inside, two First-Rank Marquises and three Chaos Realm Guest Officials were present.
“The Heavenly Secrets of Luohe Great Sage are obscure, and his karma is reclusive, making it difficult to detect much information about him,” said the old woman beside Marquis Chuji. “He rose rapidly, with very few relatives or friends. He might be the reincarnation of some old expert, so when we act, we must go all out.”
“We cannot be careless with any peak Chaos Realm expert,” said the old man whose left arm was encircled with golden bands.
The man in blue robes scoffed, “A peak Chaos Realm expert has already touched the threshold of a God-King in terms of cultivation. But this Luohe… he specializes in body cultivation, so his techniques are somewhat clumsy, making him easier to deal with.”
Like the Great Dao of Time Origin, the Great Dao of Space Origin, the Great Dao of Karma Origin, and so on…
Many Great Daos, if cultivated to the peak of the Chaos Realm, become incredibly elusive and unpredictable, making capture or killing very difficult. For example, Luo Feng could defeat Marquis Liuyin before, but couldn’t keep him. However, for those specializing in body cultivation, while their bodies are indeed hard to destroy, other aspects usually tend to be weaker.
“No matter the opponent, we must go all out,” said Marquis Chuji.
“It’s better if his physical body is strong; then I can fight more vigorously!” the ugly, black-haired Marquis Chuyuan snarled. “Later, I’ll bash him with a thousand, ten thousand blows, smashing him into a pile of flesh! Let’s see how strong his body truly is!”
The other four peak Chaos Realm experts were already accustomed to Marquis Chuyuan’s temperament. Such unbridled madness was rare among the imperial family of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom. However, in the imperial family of the Thunder Ancient Kingdom, most imperial experts were like this; those who remained calm and rational were a minority.
“He’s here,” the old woman said, looking into the distance, a strange sense of dread filling her. She had comprehended the Great Dao of Karma Origin, yet she always felt that Luohe’s Heavenly Secrets were too vague, allowing her to glimpse too little.
Whoosh! A black-clad man emerged from the void. A pair of dark-gold horns adorned his forehead, and his face held a hint of coldness. As he stepped out, his gaze immediately fixed on Qianxing Tower, instantly locking onto the two First-Rank Marquises and three Chaos Realm Guest Officials.
“Marquis Chuyuan, Marquis Chuji, and the three Guest Officials,” Luo Feng said, looking at them. “You are all people of standing, yet you attacked an Eternal True God close to me.”
“Guest Official Luohe has always stayed in his grotto-mansion, so we simply used a small method to invite him out for a meeting,” Marquis Chuji said with a cheerful smile. “Presumably, Guest Official Luohe is also aware of some conflicts between us and Emperor Chuyu.”
“Since arriving in Chudu, I’ve been in seclusion and am not very clear about the detailed conflicts between the First-Rank Marquises,” Luo Feng replied.
Marquis Chuji and the other five were somewhat surprised. As a Guest Official invited by Emperor Chuyu, he didn’t know about Emperor Chuyu’s conflicts with them? “It doesn’t matter if you don’t know,” Marquis Chuji continued. “We’ll give you two choices: one, distance yourself from Emperor Chuyu and never help him again. Second, continue helping Emperor Chuyu and become our enemy. Two paths… you choose one!”
Choosing a guest official required great caution. Emperor Chuyu had initially worried about encountering an ingrate, preferring to slowly cultivate someone trustworthy with great potential. When he first invited Luo Feng, Emperor Chuyu thought Luo Feng was an Eternal True God with an Infinite Divine Body, and had hoped they could support each other and grow together. Emperor Chuyu was already prepared for a period of early forbearance. It was only later that Luo Feng’s strength proved unexpectedly powerful.
“Two paths?” Luo Feng looked at them, a half-smile on his face. “You lot, are you even worthy of giving me choices?”
Marquis Chuyuan, Marquis Chuji, and the three Guest Officials instantly changed expression. “Are we worthy?” Marquis Chuji’s eyes flashed with anger, while the already short-tempered Marquis Chuyuan surged with lightning across his entire body.
“Hmph.” The man in blue robes let out a cold snort. The illusory avatar of the Original Ancestor, who had been bound and unable to move nearby, instantly vanished. At the same time, the sky around Qianxing Tower darkened. The old woman glanced at Luo Feng. A silent “Om” sound accompanied a spiritual attack that enveloped Luo Feng, obscuring his mind and blurring his perceptions. However, Luo Feng, whose mental will had reached the God-King Second Stage and who possessed the Lieyuan Art, was completely unaffected by this deception.
“Karma Obscurement?” Luo Feng recognized the opponent’s technique. Their mental will was only at the initial threshold of a God-King, but this spiritual attack was meant to blur all self-perception. “This must be Guest Official Xun, Marquis Chuji’s associate, skilled in Karma techniques; the Great Dao of Karma Origin is indeed mysterious and unfathomable.” The old man with golden bands around his left arm gazed at Luo Feng, and the golden bands on his arm vanished into thin air.
“Hm?” Five illusory golden bands appeared out of nowhere, enveloping Luo Feng and instantly tightening. The five golden bands restrained Luo Feng’s body, containing multiple powers of sealing, binding, strangling, and suppression.
“Luohe couldn’t even dodge my golden bands?” the old man sneered upon seeing this. “This true body of his is doomed.” Seeing Luo Feng trapped by the five golden bands, the man in blue robes smiled. A vast array subtly appeared across the entire world; as the array activated, countless chains of heaven and earth enveloped Luo Feng.
Marquis Chuji revealed a faint smile. They had won. With Luohe trapped by the golden bands, the outcome was already decided.
“These are your methods?” Luo Feng’s voice suddenly rang out. He exerted a slight force, and the basic components of his five transformation techniques had all converted into ‘Yin-Yang particle form,’ causing his power to surge completely. Four of Luo Feng’s five transformation techniques were close-range. When employing the Chaos Realm blade technique, Luo Feng could now simultaneously unleash twenty-three thousand streaks of Galaxy Blade Light. Close-quarters combat merely involved explosive power with very little mental burden, allowing Luo Feng to simultaneously unleash ‘over ten billion units’ of his transformation technique’s power, a strength so immense it was utterly inconceivable. *Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!!!!!* With a single exertion of force, all five golden bands shattered! And the chains of heaven and earth naturally annihilated upon touching the surface of Luo Feng’s clothes.
This scene stunned the two First-Rank Marquises and three Chaos Realm Guest Officials! “My five golden bands, shattered?” the old man stared in disbelief. “These are weapon artifacts, shattered?” He could accept the golden bands being stretched. But for them to shatter instantly? When the numerous chains of heaven and earth, condensed by the blue-robed man’s grand array, touched Luo Feng’s clothes, they simply vanished. He clearly perceived the incredible power encountered when his controlled chains made contact with Luo Feng’s attire. Touch and die! “Escape quickly! He’s not a peak Chaos Realm expert; he’s a Chaos Realm Beyond!” The man in blue robes transmitted his message while attempting to flee.
Rumble! Centered on Qianxing Tower, endless silver light emerged and enveloped the area, forming a massive silver cage that completely encompassed the entire building. “Trying to leave?” Luo Feng took a step, and his figure traversed the void, instantly appearing beside the man in blue robes. His five fingers clasped onto the man’s body. In an instant, a several-zhang radius around the man turned into chaos, all spatial layers annihilated, and the terrifying power impacted the world’s membrane wall.
With a single strike, Great Saint Tianyu’s body was utterly annihilated, without even a trace of ability to struggle. First the shattering of the five golden bands, then the annihilation of the chains of heaven and earth, followed by Great Saint Tianyu being unable to withstand even one strike – this was a huge shock to Marquis Chuji and the others. Although Great Saint Tianyu’s divine body wasn’t particularly strong, as a practitioner of the Great Dao of World Origin, he was roughly on par with Marquis Liuyin in strength and possessed strong life-saving abilities, yet he proved incredibly fragile before Luo Feng.
Boom! Boom! Luo Feng’s arms suddenly swelled, like pillars supporting the heavens, as he simultaneously reached for the old man and the old woman. Luo Feng naturally had detailed intelligence on the two First-Rank Marquises and the three Chaos Realm Guest Officials. In fact, the three Chaos Realm Guest Officials had the strongest escape abilities! That’s why Luo Feng dealt with Great Saint Tianyu, who controlled the world, first, before turning to the other two Guest Officials. As for Marquis Chuji and Marquis Chuyuan? While strong, their escape capabilities were weak.
Om. Luo Feng’s hands pierced through the void, appearing out of nowhere right before the two Chaos Realm Guest Officials. “Marquis, let’s go,” the old woman grabbed Marquis Chuji, and they vanished without a trace in an instant. The old man’s body, however, disintegrated, avoiding Luo Feng’s grasp. When his body reappeared in the distance, he looked with shock and anger at the Galaxy Cage: “This cage has sliced through the void, separating the inside from the outside.”
Whoosh. The old woman, carrying Marquis Chuji, had already escaped to the distant Marquis’s residence above. Only then did she feel relieved enough to look back towards Qianxing Tower. “Marquis, I can only barely take one Chaos Realm being with me to merge into the Karma Escape method,” the old woman said. “I could only bring you, Marquis, to escape.” The Karma Escape method, where one integrates into karmic lines to flee, was a supremely powerful escape technique that the old woman had finally cultivated from the heritage she received in the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, after comprehending the Great Dao of Karma Origin. This technique’s difficulty dramatically increased when carrying another life during a karmic escape.
“Thanks to Guest Official Xun, I wouldn’t have been able to escape without you,” Marquis Chuji said with a mix of shock and anger, looking into the distance. His gaze pierced through spatial obstructions, revealing the Galaxy Cage. “That cage can isolate inside from out; it would be very difficult to escape from it.” “Guest Official Xun, is there any way to save Marquis Chuyuan and the others?” Marquis Chuji asked. “No way,” the old woman shook her head. “Luohe’s every move is not only extremely fast, but he can also traverse the void even when Great Saint Tianyu was controlling the world! If I were to use the Karma Escape method to infiltrate it, I would likely be struck the moment I reappeared! My divine body is not as strong as Brother Tianyu’s; if I were hit, this true body would surely die.” “He must be a Chaos Realm Beyond expert specializing in body cultivation, able to contend with God-Kings purely with his physical body. He’s not someone we can provoke,” the old woman added, a hint of lingering fear in her voice.
Marquis Chuji’s face was grim. “I didn’t expect that this time, only the two of us would escape.”
As a First-Rank Marquis, Emperor Chuyu naturally had excellent intelligence in Chudu. He received news of the battle at Qianxing Tower immediately. “What? Marquis Chuyuan, Marquis Chuji, and the five of them are confronting Brother Luohe?” Emperor Chuyu panicked. “Didn’t I tell Brother Luohe to be careful? How did he still fall into an ambush?”
