Xiangjie City, on the border of the Ancient Blazefeng Kingdom.
In a quiet chamber within the Guardian Manor, Luo Feng sat cross-legged, taking a sip from a flask. The flask contained the ‘Shining Ice Elixir’, a precious medicine he had specifically purchased to aid his cultivation. Made from materials of exotic God King beasts, it made his soul feel cool and much clearer after consumption.
“This is truly a top-tier legacy,” Luo Feng thought. He had spent tens of thousands of days on a preliminary study of the ‘World Lifeform’ legacy. “Just a few pointers from this legacy make these 30 reward points well worth it.”
This legacy was created by Yuan’s friend!
The creator’s strength was immense, far surpassing the creators of ‘Eight Tribulations Lifeform’ and ‘Seventy-two Swords of Decimation’. Even a few words in the legacy made Luo Feng realize some crucial aspects of the cultivation path. “Life within the cage has the primordial Great Dao as a reference, making cultivation less difficult.” “However, outside the cage, cultivation is a blind exploration, a path one must forge oneself, making it infinitely more challenging.” “Therefore, one must enhance their comprehension even when at a low level.” “Every aspect of a cultivator can be improved: physique, movement techniques, intelligence, comprehension, soul, will… there are cultivation methods for all aspects, and comprehension is the most ethereal among them.”
Luo Feng strongly agreed with this point.
Comprehension is very elusive. Among countless cultivators, it is generally improved to a certain extent by consuming rare treasures, such as Origin Crystal Spirit Fruits, which nourish the soul.
Alternatively, strengthening one’s spiritual will. With a strong spiritual will, comprehension indeed improves.
Or by specifically cultivating the soul; the path of the soul is the most difficult, but an intrinsic improvement of the soul does bring about an increase in comprehension.
Or by making the physical body incredibly powerful, which nourishes the soul and speeds up thought processes, thus also helping comprehension.
But these are all indirect methods! “How far one can walk on the Great Dao depends fundamentally on comprehension.” “How to improve comprehension?” “I have a method: use lower-level profound insights to create higher-level secret techniques.”
Luo Feng fully understood the creator’s idea.
For instance, with the Trinity form, if one comprehends all six branches of the life’s primordial Great Dao, creating the Trinity form would be effortlessly easy, without any difficulty.
However, if one only masters the profound insights of the Chaos Realm peak and attempts to create the Trinity secret technique, the difficulty immediately skyrockets. This process of attempting would gradually enhance one’s comprehension.
According to the legacy’s creator, one should not deliberately pursue breakthroughs in cultivation. “Instead, one should continuously create higher-level secret techniques using lower-level realms. Create one, two, five, ten! When the accumulation reaches an incredibly profound level, even without intentionally seeking a breakthrough, one will naturally break through one day.” “At the God King level of cultivation, there is clear guidance from the primordial Great Dao! This is the best time to hone one’s comprehension.”
Once one surpasses the God King level, one is forced to grope in the dark. “Many cultivators are accustomed to the guidance of the Great Dao. Suddenly groping in the dark, they find it impossible to move even an inch, let alone completely break free from the cage.”
This extensive legacy broadened Luo Feng’s horizons.
Luo Feng’s mindset had changed. Before, he had always consumed Origin Crystal Spirit Fruits, yearning to master a branch of the Great Dao and achieve a breakthrough in his realm.
Now, it seemed that training his comprehension through exploration in the dark was fundamental. Breakthroughs in Great Dao realms were a natural progression. “My cultivation progress is already very fast; there’s no need to rush,” Luo Feng thought. “I’ll try to create God King level secret techniques using the profound insights of the Chaos Realm.” Luo Feng realized that those who achieved transcendence in the Chaos Realm through self-created secret techniques were indeed this type of powerful individual.
Luo Feng’s Trinity form was a God King level secret technique, but he had only created one. “I can also research the materials of Primordial Bloodline creatures and study their life forms,” Luo Feng thought. Immediately, a clone of Luo Feng entered the suppressed world through its entrance and headed there.
This suppressed world was called Xiangjie! Many Primordial Bloodline creatures of the Chaos Realm level were thriving there.
Chaos Realm strength indicated that the Primordial Bloodline was at its thinnest. If it continued to degrade, it would begin to lose its Primordial Bloodline characteristics. “Hoo, hoo, hoo~” A massive creature, like a sculpture carved from rock, lay there, its breath causing storms. Its body was streamlined, its enormous hooves resting on the ground, and its head cushioned on one of them.
Suddenly, a man in black appeared nearby.
The colossal creature suddenly opened its eyes, its yellow gaze fixed on Luo Feng. “A cultivator?” The creature looked at Luo Feng with apprehension and hostility. “What are you doing in our world? Get out of here, quickly!” Throughout its life, cultivators had frequently entered this world, and occasionally, some Primordial Bloodline creatures would be taken away, never to return. “Boom!”
Luo Feng stretched out his hand, and a billion black rivers surged forth, forming a giant palm that clamped around the colossal creature’s neck.
He lifted the massive creature directly into the air. “Let go of me, let go of me,” the creature cried out in panic, looking at Luo Feng. “Are you going to take me away? I know, you cultivators always take away a batch of Primordial Bloodline creatures, and those taken, they all die, don’t they?”
In fact, that was true.
The taken Primordial Bloodline creatures would have their bloodline refined repeatedly until they completely died. They were bred and nurtured precisely for the purpose of extracting ‘weakened military-source bloodline’. “I need to select some Primordial Bloodline creatures to take,” Luo Feng said casually, his giant black river-palm still clutching the creature’s neck. “However, if you just give me some body materials, I can let you go.” “You’ll let me go for just some materials?” The colossal creature, whose neck was being squeezed, could feel the enormous disparity in their strengths – a gap that left it utterly powerless to resist.
In Xiangjie, even the most perfect Chaos Realm Primordial Bloodline creatures could only instinctively contend with ordinary God Kings. They were still no match for Luo Feng at this moment. “Yes, some materials. You must ensure you don’t destroy these materials with a thought. If the materials are destroyed, I’ll have to take you with me personally,” Luo Feng stated.
The Ancient Blazefeng Kingdom would send envoys to collect creatures. However, these Primordial Bloodline creatures couldn’t distinguish whether someone was an envoy or not.
In their eyes, anyone from outside their world was a cultivator. “Okay, I’ll give them to you,” the colossal creature said, meekly submitting in the face of such overwhelming power. “Very good,” Luo Feng nodded in satisfaction. “I’ll choose the materials.”
As per Luo Feng’s request, he took one of the creature’s claw blades, a piece of membrane, a small bone fragment, and some blood. Though many types, the total amount was very small.
The colossal creature could fully recover in just a few breaths.
“He’s letting me go for just this tiny bit of material?” it secretly rejoiced.
Luo Feng then frequently collected materials in the suppressed world. For the Ancient Blazefeng Kingdom, as long as he didn’t kill these Primordial Bloodline creatures and didn’t hinder the extraction of ‘Primordial Bloodline’, they wouldn’t care, no matter how fiercely he might beat them.
Luo Feng would either deceive them, beat them, or even directly capture them into the Star Tower!
Capturing one into the Star Tower instilled fear in the other Primordial Bloodline creatures of this world, making them more willing to hand over materials.
Of course, Luo Feng also encountered stubborn ones who wouldn’t yield no matter how much he tormented them, refusing to give even a drop of blood for his research. In such cases, Luo Feng could only temporarily imprison them in the Star Tower. This also served to maintain his ‘notoriety’ in this world, letting other Primordial Bloodline creatures know that if they didn’t hand over materials obediently, they would be taken away.
Of course, if one day, an envoy from the Ancient Blazefeng Kingdom came to inspect, Luo Feng could just release the imprisoned creatures back.
According to Luo Feng’s understanding, envoys from the Ancient Blazefeng Kingdom usually came to inspect only once every thousand eras or even longer.
Time passed quickly for cultivators; immersed in their studies and practice, eras flowed by ceaselessly.
The outside world had originally thought that Luo Feng, who became the top transcendent in the Chaos Realm through his self-created secret techniques, would surely stir up some waves and accrue significant benefits for himself given his strength.
But to their surprise…
Luo Feng became very low-key.
He no longer accepted any missions, nor did he involve himself in any disputes. Even in Huyang City, Xiangjie City, and Chu Capital, very few cultivators managed to visit or meet Luo Feng.
In the blink of an eye, a hundred eras had passed since Luo Feng began guarding Xiangjie City.
In Thunder Ancient Kingdom, Zuoshan City was the territory of the newly ascended Chaos Realm transcendent, ‘Zuoshan Jin’, of the Thunder Ancient Kingdom.
Zuoshan Jin, having fully joined the Thunder Ancient Kingdom as a Chaos Realm transcendent, was naturally bestowed with a city. “Primordial Bloodline truly holds countless secrets,” Zuoshan Ke mused in a quiet chamber. He appeared ordinary, his aura completely concealed. “The Primordial Bloodline is like the most perfect weapon and treasure, containing endless profound mysteries of the Great Dao.”
Zuoshan Ke was also continuously researching the composition of the Primordial Bloodline and the profound Great Dao mysteries contained within it.
In the process of uncovering the bloodline’s potential, his mastery slowly improved, naturally leading him to achieve transcendence in the Chaos Realm.
For normal cultivators, once they convert to cultivating the Primordial Bloodline, their strength undergoes a transformation. “What I’m exposed to is the weakest Primordial Bloodline, and even the lingering will is somewhat troublesome,” Zuoshan Ke muttered, a faint red glow appearing in his eyes, which he quickly suppressed. “This will can be suppressed, but not annihilated.”
The lingering will held an extremely high status. “Hmm?”
Zuoshan Ke suddenly flipped his hand and took out a round token. “This is the latest intelligence from the Gluttonous Kingdom’s Sovereign,” a piece of information suddenly transmitted.
Zuoshan Ke’s enemies, the three sovereigns of the Gluttonous Kingdom, were led by ‘Sovereign Sky Roc’, who was also the true ruler of the Gluttonous Kingdom.
In Zuoshan Ke’s view, his disciple Luo Feng’s talent was dazzling, brilliant, and terrifying. The other two sovereigns posed little threat and would not be difficult to eliminate in the future. However, the leading ‘Sovereign Sky Roc’ was somewhat troublesome.
Sovereign Sky Roc, after all, was a God King of the Second Tier. Even an Emperor-level expert wouldn’t dare claim to be able to completely kill him. Zuoshan Ke’s hatred had long been ingrained in his soul; his clan and his wife were too weak to perform the reincarnation secret technique, destined to be utterly gone. He naturally yearned to completely kill his enemy. “The Sovereign of the Gluttonous Kingdom, together with several friends, set up an ambush in the treasure land ‘Sky River’ to besiege the Sovereign of the Yu Kingdom. Forced into a corner, the Sovereign of the Yu Kingdom deliberately dove deep into the Sky River. The Sovereign of the Yu Kingdom is in danger of his true body falling.” This piece of intelligence made Zuoshan Ke’s expression subtly change.
The Sovereign of the Gluttonous Kingdom and the Sovereign of the Yu Kingdom already had significant conflicts, and this time, the Sovereign of the Yu Kingdom had suffered a major setback. “The Sovereign of the Yu Kingdom also cultivates the Primordial Bloodline, with countless resources poured into his body. If his true body falls… his strength will be greatly diminished in the short term,” Zuoshan Ke thought.
The Sovereign of the Yu Kingdom wouldn’t truly die, but if his true body was gone, recovering with a resurrection vessel would require purchasing new Primordial Bloodline and new resources for cultivation. “The situation between the Gluttonous Kingdom and the Yu Kingdom might completely change,” Zuoshan Ke worried. “Looking at the Gluttonous Kingdom Sovereign’s multiple actions, he must have joined a major power to quietly gather several God King Second Tier experts to act together repeatedly.” “Powerful himself, and also able to quickly receive assistance from companions.”
The more information Zuoshan Ke gathered, the more he understood the difficulty of vengeance. “I wonder how my disciple is doing now.” Zuoshan Ke understood that relying on himself was hopeless; reaching the invincible level of God King First Tier with the Primordial Bloodline was already remarkable.
But this level was still weaker compared to Sovereign Sky Roc, let alone completely eradicating him. His only hope still lay with his disciple. “My disciple, whose miniature universe and divine body surpass the history of Origin Continent! He was able to master Yuan-Tier techniques even when weak. In just a few decades on Origin Continent, he became the top transcendent in the Chaos Realm.” “However, there hasn’t been any news about him in the last hundred eras.” Zuoshan Ke wasn’t entirely clear about Luo Feng’s situation, nor did he intend to reveal his identity to Luo Feng.
In his plan, the time for reunion would only come when Luo Feng’s strength was at least comparable to that of Sovereign Sky Roc.
