**Chapter 217: Between Emperors**
Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, Chu Capital.
Under the cloak of night, the black-robed Luo Feng flew leisurely through the city’s sky.
“Having reached the second level of God-King on the Path of Destruction… I can now glimpse the complete Great Dao of Destruction. The utility of Moro Sa has significantly decreased.” Luo Feng smiled faintly.
Mastering a branch of a Dao allows one to glimpse a portion of the Great Dao.
Reaching the second level of God-King allows one to glimpse the complete Great Dao and mobilize its power to a certain extent.
If one were to reach the Ultimate Realm, they would have fully mastered the complete Great Dao.
“Once my Path of Life also reaches the second level of God-King, the assistance of the Original Universe will become negligible.”
Many precious opportunities of the past are constantly diminishing in importance!
For example, the Wu-Slaying Wings, once a mechanical-flow secret treasure for Eternal True Gods, helped Luo Feng when he first arrived in the Origin Continent. But as his strength increased, it became little more than a treasure of sentimental value.
The Original Universe will soon be useless, and Moro Sa might still be of some help if it becomes an Ultimate Realm existence.
“The ‘Lie Yuan Art,’ the most profound mental technique I’ve ever seen, is still of great help. The Star Tower… it only grows more important as time goes on!” Luo Feng found this amusing.
Back in his home universe, when he was weak, he thought the Tomb Ship, the Wu-Slaying Wings, and the Bloodshadow Saber were more valuable than the Star Tower.
This showed that when one’s strength is low, it is difficult to see the true worth of treasures, even when they are right in front of them.
Even his master, Sitting Mountain Guest… who personally refined the Star Tower, only considered it a God-King level secret treasure! He did not see through its true nature.
“Hoo.”
While pondering, Luo Feng flew leisurely, soon arriving at the Imperial Chu Palace.
He came to the Imperial Chu Palace to receive the subsequent inheritance of the *Eight Tribulation Lifeform* and *Seventy-Two Severing Blades*. He only needed to demonstrate the mysteries of the second level of God-King on the Path of Destruction to prove his realm had reached that level.
A moment later.
Luo Feng had now acquired the complete inheritance for all God-King stages of the *Eight Tribulation Lifeform* and *Seventy-Two Severing Blades*.
Of course, Luo Feng was currently only using these two inheritances as references.
“Compared to Special-Class inheritances, these are indeed much simpler, and the secret techniques are also more ordinary,” Luo Feng thought.
Special-Class inheritances, theoretically the strongest techniques at the same stage, have a difficulty that reaches an inconceivable level.
For example, the Twenty-Four Phase Form Lifeform, ‘Comprehending the Essence of the Twenty-Four Phase Forms’ and ‘Researching Materials Adaptable to the Twenty-Four Phase Forms.’ Luo Feng had only comprehended one aspect and still had not grasped it.
For example, the Unification Secret Technique of the *Chaoshole Beast Body* is a combat method that complements the Chaoshole Beast Body! Luo Feng only comprehended the combat method, but he did not comprehend the ‘Chaoshole Beast Body.’ Instead, he used the combat method with an even stronger World Lifeform.
Therefore, Luo Feng had only comprehended a portion of the theoretically strongest techniques of these two Special-Class inheritances.
…
After learning the inheritances, Luo Feng naturally went to pay his respects to his master. These two inheritances had saved him approximately two hundred million Court Envoy merits, so he naturally had to thank his master.
“Luo Feng.” When Emperor Chu saw Luo Feng, he couldn’t help but smile.
He was extremely satisfied with this disciple.
In just over two hundred cycles since becoming a God-King, he had already reached the second level of God-King. Emperor Chu was amazed by this talent.
“Master, I have already received the subsequent content of the two inheritances,” Luo Feng said.
“Mm.”
Emperor Chu nodded in satisfaction. “When you first became a God-King, you were already invincible at the first level. I knew your talent was terrifying enough, but to reach the second level of God-King in such a short time… there are very few in the history of the Origin Continent who are faster than you.”
Luo Feng knew that there were indeed those who had reached the second level of God-King faster than him.
This was also because he had tempered his comprehension by ‘comprehending higher-level secret techniques at a lower realm.’
“Your path of cultivation is very smooth,” Emperor Chu said. “Some highly talented individuals may be dazzling in the early stages, but suddenly get stuck at a bottleneck… and become mediocre. But you have smoothly broken through to the second level of God-King.”
“For you, the next goal is the Ultimate Realm!” Emperor Chu said expectantly. “The Ultimate Realm is many times more difficult than the second level of God-King. You must still cultivate diligently and not be careless in the slightest.”
“Disciple understands,” Luo Feng, of course, understood.
“Your strength is getting stronger and stronger…” Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. “Some of my struggles and conflicts will likely involve you.”
“Involve me?” Luo Feng was taken aback.
“You are my disciple,” Emperor Chu said. “Before, when your strength was weak, the most powerful existences in the Origin Continent wouldn’t pay attention to you. But now that you have become a second-level God-King, you have entered their field of vision.”
“Who are they?” Luo Feng asked.
Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng: “Who do you think my enemies in the Origin Continent might be?”
After Luo Feng’s mind and will transformed, he fully restrained his will and concealed himself, but he was still keenly perceptive! His master, sitting there, exuded an intangible pressure that was extremely terrifying. It was much stronger than the Returning Ruins Emperor, and even stronger than the Mother River Master!
Luo Feng had personally seen the Mother River Master and the Wind Capital Empress. These two were able to contend with Emperors by relying on their realm and secret treasures. But in terms of lifeform aura, they were far inferior to the Emperors.
“With your strength, Master, your opponents in the Origin Continent are mainly other Emperors and Monarchs. There are very few rogue cultivators who can be your match,” Luo Feng said.
“My greatest enemies are mainly the other Emperors of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom!” Emperor Chu’s eyes turned cold. Luo Feng was startled.
“The Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom and the Thunder Ancient Kingdom are naturally opposed! When facing external enemies, the thirteen Emperors of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom will naturally join hands to fight. As natural enemies, their grudges are clear,” Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. “But the situation inside the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom is different.”
“Whether it is exploring various treasure lands, opportunities, or resource allocation, there are many contradictions and conflicts.”
“In the depths of the treasure lands, they kill fellow Emperors to seize treasures…”
“They ruthlessly attack the disciples of other Emperors, exterminate their families, and seize their treasures.”
Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. “On the surface, there are thirteen Emperors of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, but the hatred between them is even greater than that between the rogue cultivators outside.”
Luo Feng was secretly alarmed.
It had long been rumored that the relationships between the Emperors were extremely poor, and this was indeed true.
“In the future, you must clearly distinguish who is an enemy and who is a friend,” Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. “Among the thirteen Emperors of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, Emperor Qing is the most detached and has the strongest appeal.”
“Next is Emperor Yan. This is someone you must be careful of,” Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. “Emperor Yan is the first Emperor of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom. He once led the ancient kingdom and controlled the power to allocate a large amount of resources… Because at that time, he was the only Emperor of the ancient kingdom, and he was very friendly to the royal family, helping many descendants. So now, he also has great power.”
“He and Emperor Wu are like siblings, with a life-and-death relationship.”
“He and Emperor Xi are married.”
“He, Emperor Xi, and Emperor Wu have always advanced and retreated together. Because they are ancient enough and their methods are ruthless enough, the treasures they have accumulated are also the most numerous,” Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. “The three of them have a complete set of secret treasures that surpass the God-King level. The three of them joining hands are even more terrifying.”
“Among the thirteen Emperors of Yanfeng, Emperor Qing ranks first, while Emperor Yan, Emperor Xi, and Emperor Wu, when they join forces, can be considered second.”
“Emperor Ming has a mental will that surpasses the God-King level! This allows his Primal Chaos Bloodline Body to unleash even more terrifying power. His mental will secret techniques are also terrifying… He should be considered the third force among the thirteen Emperors of Yanfeng.”
“All other Emperors, including Emperor Fu, have their own interests and do not permanently band together,” Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng.
“Those who follow the bloodline cultivation path, except for Emperor Ming, are generally more violent and willful.”
“Those who follow the Primal Chaos Body Refinement path are relatively rational, but once they scheme, they will be even more difficult to deal with.”
Luo Feng understood.
It was said that Emperor Fu had high enough talent to possibly be the next Emperor Qing! But in terms of strength, among the twelve Emperors other than Emperor Qing, Emperor Ming was the strongest.
“My greatest enemy is Emperor Wu. We are life-and-death enemies,” Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. “This also leads to Emperor Yan and Emperor Xi targeting me.”
“Disciple understands,” Luo Feng understood.
“I was ambushed by her in the past and fell into the deepest part of the ‘Heavenly Pillar Realm,’ the number one treasure land of the Origin Continent, into the Stained Blood River. If ordinary second-level God-Kings were to be contaminated with the Stained Blood River, they would be directly killed by the contamination, and the pollution would even affect their avatars, causing them to die completely,” Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. “I sank to the bottom of the Stained Blood River. Even Ultimate Realm lifeforms were eroded more than 90%, and I was about to die. Fortunately, I obtained a secret treasure at the bottom of the river before I rushed out and survived.”
“As long as I have the opportunity, I will definitely destroy her,” Emperor Chu said calmly.
“She deserves to die,” Luo Feng nodded.
“Are there any Emperors who have a good relationship with Master?” Luo Feng asked.
Emperor Chu paused slightly before saying, “No!”
“Although they can’t be considered friends, at least I don’t have a life-and-death feud with the other Emperors,” Emperor Chu said. “As for the grievances between the other Emperors… I’ll send you a detailed report.”
Luo Feng received the information and looked at it.
Upon closer examination, Luo Feng discovered that Emperor Chu was actually not that bad.
Like Emperor Kong! He had a bad relationship with all the Emperors.
Emperor Ming! He had attacked all Emperors except Emperor Qing, forcibly seizing treasures! Because his strength was strong enough, none of the other Emperors dared to form a life-and-death feud with him. But similarly… Emperor Ming had no true friends either.
“My master, Emperor Chu, is considered not bad among the thirteen Emperors,” Luo Feng thought. “I didn’t expect Emperor Ming, who was so friendly to me, to be so domineering and tyrannical.”
“If other Emperors are involved, tell me immediately,” Emperor Chu said. “Don’t make rash decisions easily, or you might easily get caught up in it.”
“Don’t worry, Master,” Luo Feng replied.
******
As his master, Emperor Chu, had predicted, after only half a cycle, Luo Feng’s Court Envoy token received a mission.
In Huyang City, Luo Feng looked at this mission in surprise. Over the long years, he had received many missions, but the content of this one was somewhat special.
Mission Content:
“In the Royal Forbidden Ground, one hundred and ninety-two worlds are each cultivating 192 Primal Chaos Bloodline Beast Eggs. Requires the strength of a second-level God-King and requires arranging 192 avatars to carefully care for the beast eggs. Only needs to carefully care for them for three thousand cycles. Very few Court Envoys can complete this mission. After discussion by several Emperors, Court Envoy Luo He has been designated to accept this mission.”
Luo Feng was very surprised.
“Designated me?”
Unless it was a punishment like guarding Realm Aspect City, normal Court Envoy missions were entirely voluntary, and the Court Envoy had the right to refuse.
