“Amazing, truly worthy of being the strongest Godly King in the history of the Land of Origin, ascending to the First Realm of Godly King in just over two centuries and has even reached the Second Realm!” the Monarch of Yu Country exclaimed.
“In the Land of Origin, there are many stronger than me,” Luo Feng laughed, inadvertently acknowledging himself as being in the Second Realm of Godly King.
The ‘Chaotic Hole Undying Light’ and ‘Great Extinction Style’ he had realized, along with the Second Realm secret techniques he would realize in the future! Possessing such powerful secret techniques, who would believe he was still in the First Realm of Godly King?
Moreover, Luo Feng was intentionally creating higher realm secret techniques at a lower realm to hone his comprehension. In fact, in terms of accumulation, the paths of life and destruction, could easily propel him to the Second Realm of Godly King if he pursued them deliberately.
By acknowledging himself as in the Second Realm of Godly King, his strength seemed more reasonable.
“With your talent, Luo He, you have every chance of reaching the Ultimate Realm,” the Monarch of Yu Country said.
“The Ultimate Realm is much harder than the Second Realm of Godly King,” Luo Feng replied. In the Land of Origin, a fair number of secret techniques of the Ultimate Realm had been realized by Emperors and Monarchs, even those at the level of Emperor Gui Xu could manage it. But in this era… only the Lord of Ten Thousand Realms and Emperor Qing had reached the Ultimate Realm.
“Yes, it’s very difficult,” the Monarch of Yu Country sighed, having not even realized a single Ultimate Realm secret technique himself!
…
The news that Luo Feng had defeated a Second Realm Godly King with a single ‘Chaotic Hole Undying Light’ spread rapidly, even detailed battle images were available!
“This Luo He, without showing his physical strength, simply released a blade light to defeat an ordinary Second Realm Godly King?” the Emperor of Tian Kun of Shi Country, also keenly watched the battle images, “This blade light is not from a Weapon Secret Treasure, but from condensed prowess! It possesses such terrifying power. With attributes like ‘All Things Can Be Cut,’ ‘Unavoidable,’ ‘Energy Eternal,’ it has many terrifying aspects.”
The Emperor of Tian Kun, being a high-ranking overlord, recognized many fearsome traits of this blade light.
“This blade light reaches a very high realm.”
“I can’t perform such a refined move myself,” the Emperor of Tian Kun admitted, his feelings complex, “Even if I were to utilize my full power with the Primordial Bloodline, I probably could only match this one blade light.”
“Is this what they call a peerless talent?”
The Emperor of Tian Kun, himself a reigning overlord, felt a sense of powerlessness facing Luo He.
Last time, Luo Feng’s techniques were still clumsy, merely relying on having many avatars and a resilient physical body to entangle the enemy. In just over two centuries, his previously weakest aspect, ‘realm,’ had already surpassed that of the Emperor of Tian Kun.
“I’d better keep more distance from him in the future,” the Emperor of Tian Kun thought silently.
Of course, he wasn’t alarmed.
Even if Luo Feng’s realm was high enough to master Ultimate Realm secret techniques, comparable to Emperor Gui Xu or Wuxin God King, so what?
Even at the Emperor level, no one would dare claim they could destroy the Emperor of Tian Kun in one stroke, leaving him no chance for reincarnation. The life force of the Emperor of Tian Kun, with his Primordial Bloodline, was also exceptionally robust.
…
Below the endless flames, a figure appeared, none other than the first Emperor ‘Di Yan’ of the Flame Wind Ancient Country.
“Luo He has reached the Second Realm of Godly King?” Di Yan nodded slightly, “His realm has greatly improved, and he’s skilled in creating avatars! For my Flame Wind Ancient Country, he could be very useful, handling many tough and arduous tasks.”
Among the Guest Elder Godly Kings, Luo Feng was already considered a powerful force, with his multitude of avatars equivalent to a group of Royal Family Godly Kings.
“The only obstacle is his master ‘Emperor Chu’,” Di Yan frowned.
He believed that, on one hand, the Emperors’ strength was a deterrent, and on the other hand, offering merit resources, Luo Feng would obediently bow down and toil without complaint. But with Emperor Chu around, he would certainly protect his disciple’s interests.
******
Revealing some of his strength had stirred up some disturbances, but Luo Feng continued to leisurely stroll around.
“Although the large cities of Shi Country are prosperous, the wilderness outside the cities… is much more brutal and cruel,” Luo Feng frowned slightly, watching a warship approach a tribe in the distance.
The tribe comprised merely a few thousand creatures.
The warship carried a crack troop consisting of ten true gods of void space and a hundred true gods, who now led with a secret treasure that produced a massive bag, aiming to completely swallow the whole tribe.
“This is bad.”
“Run!”
Panic ensued within the tribe.
However, the troops on the warship were quite casual, having grown accustomed to such tasks. Every so often, they had to capture enough creatures to offer up! If the numbers fell short, they would have to pay with their own lives.
“Scram!” A commanding shout instantly transported the warship billions of kilometers away, and the tribe miraculously survived.
The few thousand creatures in the tribe stared blankly at the scene, the massive bag and warship that had dominated the sky disappeared.
“Hurry.”
“We’ve been discovered, we must hide deeper in the mountains.”
“Quick, move quickly.”
The tribe swiftly mobilized, taking only essential items, and moved to a more secluded location aboard a Flying Boat.
From afar, Luo Feng watched the entire tribe relocate.
“This is Shi Country, known for its cuisine, but also for devouring countless creatures,” Luo Feng shook his head lightly. When he annexed ten Primal Chaos Prefectures of Shi Country, he discovered that their wilderness tribes all lived in extremely remote areas.
“That Emperor of Tian Kun… he intends to consume countless creatures over the long term.”
This was also why Shi Country was so brutally aggressive in its expansion.
In fact, with the strength of Shi Country… annexing some third-rate nations through sheer force was usually unchallenged. Through normal negotiations and intimidation, annexation was easily achieved.
This was a common way for many second-rate nations to expand their territories.
However, Shi Country preferred bloody massacres. When annexing a nation, usually, every single resident of the ‘Royal Capital’ of that nation was devoured, leaving no one alive. As for the wilderness tribes, there were mass captures for consumption.
“The Emperor of Tian Kun, protecting the prosperity of large cities and maintaining the sustainability of wilderness tribes, only periodically captures some. Only when annexing other nations… does he have his feast.”
“In the Land of Origin, this isn’t considered unusual.”
Luo Feng sighed.
The Land of Origin was more brutal and wicked than the Emperor of Tian Kun, with many others still far surpassing it.
They occupied vast territories, devouring countless Creatures at will, with no hope for these Creatures to ever rise up!
Compared to that, the mysterious force that had previously enslaved and controlled “Xue Fengyu” only enslaved a few geniuses. In the Land of Origin, when it came to sin, they were hardly worth mentioning.
…
Luo Feng wandered from place to place.
Second-rate nations, numerous third-rate nations, he even visited the Tianmu Kingdom and the Wanjie Kingdom, passing through many smaller neighboring countries, and finally took a route around the Thunder Ancient Country, stepping onto the Tianji Icefield from the border of the Thunder Ancient Country…
Except for the most remote East Extreme Domain, Luo Feng had traveled all across the Land of Origin.
During this process, Luo Feng also took on some registered disciples.
“Hoo hoo hoo~~~”
The wind and snow howled.
The deeper into the Tianji Icefield, the colder it got; most outdoor areas were uninhabitable for ordinary tribes. Thus, countless Creatures built cities.
Luo Feng walked alone through the snow.
“Hm?” Luo Feng’s ears twitched.
He heard the sound of melodious music.
“Beautiful piece.”
Luo Feng’s eyes lit up. Having traveled through most of the Land of Origin, he had heard many pieces of music, but fewer and fewer moved him.
Looking ahead, Luo Feng saw a desolate city covered with ice in the distance, atop its walls a figure held a leaf, playing solo. The music spread and filled the whole city.
The lonely melody, however, warmed the soul.
Luo Feng saw memories of his days in school with his wife Xu Xin, and playful moments with his sons Luo Ping and Luo Hai… Luo Feng naturally immersed himself in these beautiful memories.
“An Fengya, are you done playing? If you’re finished, I’ll make my move.” An elite military troop was also near the city walls, waiting for the music to stop before their leader spoke.
The young man in white on the walls, smiling, said, “Thank General Yun for allowing me to finish this newly created piece.”
“An Fengya, duty calls, don’t blame me.” General Yun said, “Are you going to surrender, or should I take action?”
“Please.”
The young man in white said with a smile.
Suddenly, the elite military squad transformed into a giant black Exotic Beast, charging towards the young man in white! The young man in white pulled out an oval musical instrument and began to play a tune that turned into various Illusory Realms, capturing the black Exotic Beast.
Alas, the black Exotic Beast, with unified Spiritual Power, was not afraid.
“My strength is insufficient,” the young man in white sighed as the huge claw of the black Exotic Beast loomed over him.
“Little guy, the piece is nice.” A voice sounded.
The young man in white looked over in shock.
A man in black sat atop the city wall holding a wine jug, drinking and smiling at him. Meanwhile, everything around became quiet, and the huge black Exotic Beast froze mid-air.
“An Fengya has met the Supreme,” the young man in white immediately greeted.
“An Fengya?”
Luo Feng nodded slightly and contacted the Flame Wind Pavilion to obtain all the detailed information about An Fengya.
“An Fengya, you love music and wander through many cities,” Luo Feng observed him, “because you saw a small city’s hundreds of millions of Creatures about to be devoured, you injured the son of Jiu Ye God King and saved the city’s people. Is this elite army chasing you under Jiu Ye God King’s command?”
“Yes.” An Fengya respectfully answered, this Supreme knew everything.
“Knowing he was the son of Jiu Ye God King, why did you intervene?” Luo Feng asked.
“One life for hundreds of millions, it’s naturally worth it,” An Fengya smiled, “After I intervened, those hundreds of millions of lives immediately dispersed and fled, and I believe most of them survived.”
“Are you willing to exchange your own life for the lives of hundreds of millions of unfamiliar Creatures?” Luo Feng was surprised.
Luo Feng knew he couldn’t do it.
He was willing to sacrifice for his hometown and tribe, but he could not sacrifice for strangers.
“All of us are the essence of heaven and earth, all of us brilliant lives,” An Fengya smiled with a smile so infectiously.
Luo Feng could feel that An Fengya spoke from his heart.
Perhaps, it was a soul that genuinely loved and devoutly cherished all life that could create such music.
“I currently have nineteen registered disciples, would you like to become the twentieth?” Luo Feng asked him, drawn by his love for music. Most of the registered disciples Luo Feng had taken on during his travels across the Land of Origin were skilled in music, with two specializing in culinary arts.
An Fengya was startled and couldn’t help but say, “Supreme, I have offended the son of the Jiu Ye God King.”
“From today onward, there will be no Jiu Ye God King in the Land of Origin.” Luo Feng smiled at him.
A mere First Realm Godly King causing trouble far and wide.
Since he had a grudge against my disciple, he had tied himself to the same fate!
Might as well deal with him now!
An Fengya was surprised and immediately knelt down: “Disciple An Fengya, greets Master!”
“Ha ha ha…” Luo Feng laughed, very satisfied.
At the same moment, an avatar of Luo Feng already traversed through the void, searching for that Jiu Ye God King.
