Chapter 14: Sitting Mountain Guest's Expectation | Swallowed Star 2: Origin Continent [Trans]

“Master?” Mo Luo Sa also felt that Luo Feng was too affected; it was merely an illusion cast by a Void True God.
Luo Feng glanced at the black-clothed woman and nodded, “You may leave first.”
“Su Ya takes her leave.” The black-clothed woman, Musician Su Ya, respectfully withdrew.
Luo Feng paid no attention to Mo Luo Sa, nor to the green-robed attendant serving beside him, but drank alone.
Within the massive hall, Mo Luo Sa and the green-robed attendant dared not utter a sound for a time.
Luo Feng silently drank, his eyes deep.
His will was currently enduring the tempering of the Seven Emotions Heart Refining Method.
Like refining steel a hundred times, it requires repeated hammering. A being needs to experience setbacks to gradually grow. The will is the same.
It needs to undergo repeated tempering! The stronger the tempering, if the will doesn’t collapse, the stronger it becomes!
The Seven Emotions Heart Refining Method is unique in that it tempers one’s will with various emotions. As the secret technique is activated, intense emotions surge repeatedly, constantly impacting the will.
“I have cultivated for too long, and my emotions have become deeper and more reserved. Who would have thought that in this Dream Flower House, I would return to the time when my emotions were most intense.” Luo Feng had a look of reminiscence in his eyes.
“There are many secret techniques for cultivating the will within the Lie Yuan Technique, and I had long since chosen the Great Destruction Heart Refining Method to temper my will. During the more than one epoch of closed-door cultivation, I have already cultivated it many times. This secret technique has a high enough upper limit, while the Seven Emotions Heart Refining Method has a limited upper limit after all. After all, I can’t always be in a state of emotional shock, or I would go crazy.” Luo Feng thought.
The Great Destruction Heart Refining Method uses the artistic conception of the great destruction of all things to grind down the will!
What Luo Feng needed to do was to resist with his will!
Because Mo Luo Sa inherently possessed the ‘Source of Destruction,’ Luo Feng could directly observe it and attempt to condense the artistic conception of great destruction, making this secret technique efficient enough.
The Source of Destruction is equivalent to the ‘Source of Life’ of the primal universe! By enslaving a World Beast, one can directly observe the ‘Source of Destruction,’ so Luo Feng naturally focused on the Great Destruction Heart Refining Method.
“However, those memories are indeed beautiful.” Luo Feng gradually calmed his emotions.
“Is this Musician Su Ya the one whose illusions influence emotions the most in your Dream Flower House?” Luo Feng suddenly asked.
The green-robed attendant, hearing the question, quickly replied, “The strongest in illusions in our Dream Flower House is naturally the House Lord, but the House Lord only occasionally holds the Hundred Flower Banquet, which only invited distinguished guests can attend. Among the other musicians, there are more than ten who are close to Musician Su Ya.”
Luo Feng nodded, “Have them play for me and see.”
“Yes,” the green-robed attendant replied, somewhat puzzled. How could an Eternal True God care so much about the illusions of a Void True God?
In Hu Yang City, there were some Eternal True Gods who liked the Dream Flower House Lord, and even a very few who were madly infatuated with her. But…he had never heard of an Eternal True God being particularly fond of Void True God-level illusionists.
But since Luo Feng had ordered, the green-robed attendant naturally went to arrange it immediately.
While Luo Feng was using the Seven Emotions Heart Refining Method, he successively experienced the illusions of these musicians. Although these musicians came from the same lineage, they each had their own strengths. Some even created illusionary worlds, making Luo Feng a part of the story of the illusionary world.
“Honored one, are you satisfied with these musicians?” the green-robed attendant said. “Our Dream Flower House also has other interesting little novelties. Musician illusions are just one of them.”
“Today, my pleasure is exhausted! I’ll come again later!” Luo Feng stood up and looked at the petite woman covered in leaves. This petite woman was somewhat shy, named ‘Aroya.’ She was a plant life form from the Origin Continent, and her music had a special charm, arousing Luo Feng’s emotions the most intensely, far surpassing other musicians. “This musician Aroya is very good.”
As he spoke, Luo Feng casually threw down a seemingly ordinary grain of sand, but the grain of sand instantly attracted the attention of many beings present.
“Cosmic Sand?” the green-robed attendant exclaimed, quickly saying, “Honored one, all expenses for tonight in the Dream Flower House are on us. No need…”
“I don’t like taking advantage,” Luo Feng said as he walked out.
Mo Luo Sa waved his hand and collected all the wine pots to the side, then quickly followed, unable to resist glancing at the Cosmic Sand left on the table. “Since my master gave it, you should hurry and accept it.”
The green-robed attendant then picked up the Cosmic Sand, marveling at the embryonic universe contained within it.
Tonight’s expenses were only a little over two thousand Chaos Crystals, but this Cosmic Sand from Luo Feng far exceeded that.
“Aroya, the honored one was very satisfied with your music. A reward of 10 Chaos Crystals,” the green-robed attendant said.
“Thank you, Manager Yu Luo,” the plant life ‘Aroya’ said, bowing in delight. The other musicians could only envy her. They could only receive basic service fees. Aroya was clearly the most favored by that Eternal True God.

Deep within the area shrouded by the Dream Flower House’s formation, in an inconspicuous small building.
A figure in loose robes stood there, her gaze taking in most of the Dream Flower House in her observation.
“House Lord,” the green-robed attendant said respectfully, “That Eternal True God has left, and he paid with a Cosmic Sand.”
The Dream Flower House Lord nodded slightly, “Tell me all the information about him in detail.”
“Yes,” the green-robed attendant said respectfully. “His servant has been here many times before, but this unfamiliar Eternal True God came for the first time. In the Dream Flower House, he only cared about the music illusions.”
“Those musicians are only Void True Gods. Logically speaking, they should have very little influence on an Eternal True God,” the green-robed attendant said. “But he liked it very much.”
“He even shed tears while listening to it, which is indeed somewhat puzzling,” the green-robed attendant himself didn’t quite understand. “And according to what he said, he will come again.”
The Dream Flower House Lord smiled softly, “Billions of beings each have their own peculiarities. This unfamiliar Eternal True God is perhaps more susceptible to emotional fluctuations.”
“The illusions of those musicians have such an impact on him. If the House Lord were to act personally…” the green-robed attendant said in a low voice, “He might become fanatically infatuated with the House Lord.”
The Dream Flower House Lord looked out the window.
Over the long years, there were only two Eternal True Gods who were infatuated with her. After all, Eternal True Gods had extraordinary willpower. Even if they were temporarily immersed, they would recover once the illusion ended. Those who were truly infatuated with her were ultimately few.
“When he comes next time, tell him that I will hold a ‘Hundred Flower Banquet’ in ten days and invite him to attend,” the Dream Flower House Lord said softly.
“Yes, House Lord,” the green-robed attendant responded respectfully.
A day on the Origin Continent was very long. In the following days, Luo Feng, in addition to cultivating, was also taken by Mo Luo Sa to many places for various expenses, which could be considered as broadening his horizons.
When he came to the Dream Flower House again, Luo Feng also received an invitation.
“Honored one,” the green-robed attendant said enthusiastically, “Our House Lord will hold a Hundred Flower Banquet in ten days. Many Eternal True Gods from Hu Yang City will be invited, and the House Lord also invites the Honored One to attend.”
“The Dream Flower House Lord’s Hundred Flower Banquet?” Luo Feng asked in surprise, “Is it in ten days?”
“Yes, it’s in ten days! The next time the House Lord holds a Hundred Flower Banquet might be several epochs later,” the green-robed attendant said.
Luo Feng smiled, “Since I’m invited, I’m naturally happy to attend. I’ll take the opportunity to see the House Lord’s attainments in illusion arts.”
“May I ask for the Honored One’s name? Some preparations are needed for the Hundred Flower Banquet,” the green-robed attendant said.
“Luo He,” Luo Feng said.
The green-robed attendant immediately memorized the name firmly.
This Hundred Flower Banquet was actually for the person in front of him. If this Eternal True God ‘Luo He’ became fanatically infatuated with the Dream Flower House Lord, then the Dream Flower House Lord’s influence in Hu Yang City would naturally increase.

The area surrounding the primal universe.
Sitting Mountain Guest was very solitary and had almost no contact with other True Gods. At this moment, Sitting Mountain Guest left his miniature universe alone and flew towards Luo Feng’s miniature universe.
“It’s only been a little over ten thousand epochs since I left the Origin Continent, but the time flow rate in the primal universe area is more than ten thousand times that of the Origin Continent. I’ve waited here for too long!”
“Over the long period of time, I’m only a True God now! My strength hasn’t improved much either,” Sitting Mountain Guest’s simple face showed a hint of loneliness. “I can only endure the torment of the passage of time.”
Sitting Mountain Guest thought as he continued to rush towards Luo Feng’s miniature universe. Finally, he could vaguely see the massive miniature universe.
“Hmm?” Sitting Mountain Guest was taken aback. He opened his eyes wide and carefully observed Luo Feng’s miniature universe.
“The speed of absorbing chaotic airflow has greatly slowed down.” Sitting Mountain Guest was somewhat excited. “It seems that Luo Feng’s divine body has finally grown to its limit.”
“His miniature universe with a diameter of thousands of billions of light-years absorbs a huge amount of chaotic energy every moment! Continuing for so long…cumulatively, his divine body on the Origin Continent should be between 15 billion kilometers and 20 billion kilometers in height,” Sitting Mountain Guest, as the former Jin God King, was very accurate in judging energy scales.
“Good, good, good.”
Sitting Mountain Guest’s eyes showed excitement. “Such a huge divine body far surpasses others of the same level. When he becomes a God King in the future, just in terms of divine power advantage, even if ten or eight God Kings joined forces, they would be far from being able to compare with him.”
“With Luo Feng, I have hope of revenge,” Sitting Mountain Guest had endless hatred in his heart. Everything he cared about most in his life was destroyed by the three Nation Masters of the Shi Kingdom.
His senior sister, his wife, his friends, his brothers, his many fellow disciples…
Everything was gone.
From that day on, Sitting Mountain Guest had only one thought in his mind—revenge!
To this end, he would do anything! He was fortunate that he had cultivated Luo Feng!
“My strength is much weaker than Tian Kun Nation Master, the leader of the three Nation Masters of the Shi Kingdom. I was only able to escape in the first place by relying on secret treasures. In a head-on confrontation, I’m completely unable to match him,” Sitting Mountain Guest was very clear about this. “Only when Luo Feng grows up will I have hope of revenge.”
“Just relying on the huge advantage of his divine body, Luo Feng should be able to overpower the three Nation Masters of the Shi Kingdom!” Sitting Mountain Guest said silently.
After Luo Feng ventured into reincarnation and went to the Origin Continent, he continued to stay in the primal universe area, wanting to understand the divine power reserves of Luo Feng’s divine body.
Now, Sitting Mountain Guest was relieved.
“It’s time to prepare to venture into reincarnation. I’ve been away from the Origin Continent for too long,” Sitting Mountain Guest immediately flew towards his miniature universe, beginning the final preparations and arrangements before venturing into reincarnation.
