The Chu Capital, ranking among the top of the entire Origin Continent in prosperity, is an incredibly bustling city where God Kings and numerous Chaos Realm beings reside. Emperor Chu personally oversees the city, so no faction dares to cause trouble here.
Many major clans from the Origin Continent have established family branches here.
Countless independent Eternal True Gods come here seeking opportunities. Individuals like Yu Youyi, who excels in musical illusions, are among them.
"Everyone, I have a way to introduce you to become disciples under Marquis Chu Chang," said a black-scaled Eternal True God among a group gathered in a simple tavern.
"Marquis Chu Chang is one of the seven First-Class Marquises. Even if we join him, we'd just be servants, right?" The other Eternal True Gods were not easily swayed by a few words.
Luo Feng's illusory clone was also among them.
His illusory clones could change appearances. Currently, he maintained nine different illusory clones, living in the Chu Capital under nine identities.
These nine illusory clones either joined ordinary forces as key members, ran businesses, acted as independent cultivators integrating into various groups, or joined hidden forces as peripheral members.
His illusory clones were also real physical bodies; on the surface, there was no difference to be seen, and their strength was about 30% of his true self.
Previously, even the five peak Chaos Realm beings like Marquis Chu Ji and Marquis Chu Yuan couldn't tell that these were just clones. Unless he encountered God King-level beings, it was almost impossible for them to be exposed.
"Yuan Qi, haven't you always wanted to obtain the God King-level inheritance of the Illusion lineage? It's very difficult for us Eternal True Gods to get such an inheritance. But if Marquis Chu Chang is willing, he could easily bestow a God King-level inheritance," an Eternal True God said to Luo Feng with a smile.
"Even if it's Marquis Chu Chang, we'd probably need to establish enough merit before being granted a God King-level inheritance," Luo Feng's illusory clone said calmly.
"I'm afraid that even after ten thousand eras, you still might not receive the inheritance."
"As long as it's Marquis Chu Chang, he'll immediately grant the God King-level inheritance. I'm willing to lead you right now."
"Are you willing too?"
"As long as he gives us the inheritance, of course we wouldn't refuse."
Including Luo Feng, the Eternal True Gods all spoke up.
"Even though Sheng Qingcheng is recruiting subordinates, wanting a God King-level inheritance as soon as you join is a bit wishful," the white-scaled Eternal True God shook his head heavily.
"Marquis Chu Chang's recruitment of subordinates is probably related to the competition among the First-Class Marquises," another Eternal True God said. "I heard that recently the First-Class Marquises are fiercely competing, all bringing a group of subordinates to participate in trials, and many subordinates have died."
"I've also heard that besides bringing subordinates for trials, the First-Class Marquises have even invited Chaos Realm Transcendents to take action, to seize the Blood Spirit Golden Pearls."
"City Lord Huang Feng, Spirit Star Saint, Luo He Little Saint, Sheng Qing Little Saint, as well as Yuanxiu Palace Master—a total of seven Chaos Realm Transcendents had a skirmish over the Blood Spirit Golden Pearls! They're fighting over the Blood Spirit Golden Pearls all because of one of your Emperor Chu lineage's First-Class Marquises."
The group of independent Eternal True Gods became excited when talking about the Chaos Realm Transcendents.
They were seeking opportunities in the Chu Capital, naturally eyeing the forces of the God Kings, focusing on the Chaos Realm Transcendents, and then the royal family's First-Class Marquises.
"I heard that in that fight, Spirit Star Saint was the most formidable, City Lord Huang Feng next, Luo He Little Saint and Yuan Zu Little Saint were close, and Yuanxiu Palace Master ranked last."
"I also heard that City Lord Huang Feng and Luo He Little Saint confronted each other head-on; both are skilled in physical combat, and every move is earth-shattering."
"But ultimately, both of them are no match for Spirit Star Saint."
These independent Eternal True Gods are keen on collecting all sorts of information about powerful beings. Whether the news is true or false, they drink and talk animatedly.
Luo Feng's illusory clone also chatted enthusiastically, sometimes praising Sheng Qing Little Saint, sometimes extolling Spirit Star Saint.
After Luo Feng mastered the Eight-in-One Form, he underwent a complete transformation, reaching a new level of strength. Among God King First-Tier beings, he could be considered extremely powerful.
"The seven minor branches have all reached the peak of the Chaos Realm."
Luo Feng gazed at the nearby tranquil Blood Spirit Star.
Because he had consumed the Primal Chaos Crystal Spirit Fruit, his original Splitting Heaven Lineage and Dark Heaven Lineage had reached the pinnacle of the Chaos Realm. Now that Morosa had reached the God King level, Luo Feng could personally observe the concrete manifestation of the fragmented branches of the 'Splitting Heaven Lineage' and 'Dark Heaven Lineage.' Naturally, he progressed extremely quickly, and those two lineages naturally reached the peak of the Chaos Realm.
"The gap between the peak of the Chaos Realm and the God King is very small."
Without the detailed inheritance of the first tribulation of 'Four Tribulation Life Forms' and the first volume of 'Annihilation Seventeen Blades,' Luo Feng didn't know how to proceed on the path ahead.
That's the drawback of not having a complete inheritance.
Without an inheritance to guide him, Luo Feng couldn't divide the path to break through bottlenecks into multiple steps.
Progressing step by step, allowing one's accumulation to deepen until one day becoming a God King.
"Practicing some powerful secret techniques, or even creating some unknown secret techniques, can all make one's accumulation even deeper," Luo Feng thought.
Secret techniques are the practice.
Using the mysteries at the peak of the Chaos Realm to practice secret techniques. Like Yuanxiu Palace Master and Spirit Star Saint, they have even practiced some extremely powerful Primal Chaos secret techniques, possessing Chaos Realm Transcendent strength.
Their accumulation in terms of realm can naturally be deeper.
Like Luo Feng, being able to comprehend the 'Eight-in-One Form,' which can be called a God King-level move, his understanding of life's spirituality and life body is naturally deeper.
"The only way to become a God King is to slowly accumulate," Luo Feng knew; it's not something that can be rushed.
In a blink, nearly half an era had passed since the first eruption of the Blood Spirit Star.
The Blood Spirit Star, which had been quiet for a long time, accumulated energy again to a certain threshold and began boiling once more, with liquid flames surging on its surface.
"Hahaha, it's about to enter another eruption phase." The towering and massive City Lord Huang Feng had already arrived at a distance from the Blood Spirit Star. At this moment, he stood up on his seven hooves, with desolate winds spreading around.
"The competition is about to start again," Yuanxiu Palace Master continued watching from afar. "While they're fighting, I can take the chance to collect as many as I can."
Yuanxiu Palace Master did not plan to get too close; it was too risky and not worth it.
At the same time, the clouds in the sky were also observing the Blood Spirit Star. Sheng Qing Little Saint was also ready to take action at any time.
"It's about to begin," Yuan Zu, hidden in the void, leisurely watched the Blood Spirit Star, and suddenly his expression changed slightly.
Because a figure had directly arrived near the Blood Spirit Star—it was Luo Feng.
The Blood Spirit Star hung low, with City Lord Huang Feng and Luo Feng on its right and left sides.
"Luo He? He comes and wants to compete with me immediately?" City Lord Huang Feng's eyes were fierce. That Luo He Little Saint's physical body was not inferior to his, and that vast Milky Way could suppress his Desolate Wind Domain. "Very well, this time we can decide the winner. Let's have a good fight... I've prepared some gifts for him."
Luo Feng glanced at City Lord Huang Feng.
He hadn't said a word, yet City Lord Huang Feng's eyes were full of ferocity; the tangible killing intent made the surrounding heavens and earth dim slightly.
"Chaos Realm Transcendents who cultivate the Primal Chaos Bloodline all have such violent tempers," Luo Feng shook his head secretly. In the Thunderstorm Ancient Nation, cultivating the Primal Chaos Bloodline leading to violence is not a very good outcome.
"Yuan Zu Little Saint," City Lord Huang Feng stared at Luo Feng and said, "You and that Luo He have some old grudges. In my opinion, the two of us can join forces... so that Luo He won't get a single Blood Spirit Golden Pearl."
"Good."
The gray shadow-like General Yuan Zu appeared, leisurely nodding. "City Lord Huang Feng's suggestion is good."
Yuan Zu acted in this way; since there was enmity, there was no need to hold back.
"They're going to join forces?" Luo Feng glanced at City Lord Huang Feng and Yuan Zu Little Saint.
In previous confrontations, each Chaos Realm Transcendent fought on their own without any alliances. Once they deliberately join forces and perfectly coordinate, the threat posed by Yuan Zu Little Saint and City Lord Huang Feng would significantly increase.
"Yuan Zu, we are all members of the Flame Wind Ancient Nation. This City Lord Huang Feng is from the Thunderstorm Ancient Nation, yet you want to join forces with him?" From afar, Yuanxiu Palace Master spoke, his voice resounding through the heavens and earth.
"Hahaha... Yuanxiu, you're mistaken," Yuan Zu said leisurely. "We are merely guest officials of the Flame Wind Ancient Nation; the Flame Wind Ancient Nation has never considered guest officials as part of the nation! Even you, Yuanxiu, as the personal disciple of the Lord of Ten Thousand Worlds, the Flame Wind Ancient Nation probably considers you a member of the Ten Thousand Worlds Nation."
Yuanxiu Palace Master shook his head heavily.
"Moreover, the Flame Wind Ancient Nation has never restricted guest officials from making friends, nor prevented guest officials from becoming enemies. Whether guest officials fight to the death, the Flame Wind Ancient Nation doesn't care," Yuan Zu said.
"Well said," Sheng Qing nodded in agreement.
Yuan Zu looked at Luo Feng in surprise; Sheng Qing Little Saint, who was merged with the heavens and earth, was also surprised at Luo Feng's reaction.
"Whether guest officials fight to the death, the Flame Wind Ancient Nation indeed doesn't care," Luo Feng nodded. On the Origin Continent, many God Kings have been guest officials of the Flame Wind Ancient Nation; haven't they all fought and battled?
"It seems Brother Luo He understands," Yuan Zu nodded. "Brother Luo He, you should see the situation clearly; as for the Blood Spirit Golden Pearls, you should give up on them."
"Buzz~~~"
The massive Blood Spirit Star was boiling more intensely, with liquid flames splashing turbulently. That scene also drew the attention of the Chaos Realm Transcendents.
"The Blood Spirit Golden Pearls are about to erupt. City Lord Huang Feng, let's join forces to push him back as much as possible," Yuan Zu said. As long as they forced Luo Feng further away, with Sheng Qing's lavish means of seizing the Blood Spirit Golden Pearls, they were sure that he wouldn't get a single one.
"Good," City Lord Huang Feng nodded. This time, he instantly took out the chain he carried on his back and fiercely threw it toward Luo Feng. As soon as the chain flew out, it transformed into white little snakes with terrifying might.
Luo Feng watched that scene.
Now, he could naturally control the vast domain around him, which was the 'Realm Domain' naturally possessed by his incredibly powerful physical body. At this moment, with a single thought, as many as eight billion White Rivers instantly merged into the 'Realm Domain.'
Whoosh!
In all directions, a vast white-dark world suddenly appeared. The membrane of that world was extremely thick, formed by the condensation of eight billion White Rivers.
The white-dark world trapped everything inside.
"What's going on?" Yuanxiu Palace Master was astonished as the heavens and earth darkened. A white-dark world enveloped all directions, completely sealing off. "This is a world even larger than my Dark Mansion."
"What's that?" Spirit Star Saint, who had merged with the heavens and earth, also found himself trapped. "The inner world is completely isolated? This is an independent world!"
City Lord Huang Feng had just thrown out his chain to deal with Luo Feng but then stared blankly at the extremely vast white-dark world. The world was too vast, and its aura was so heavy that even he felt a bit startled.
"I can't sense the Inner Realm Void," Sheng Qing Little Saint was also shocked at the scene. That white-dark world completely isolated the inside, even partially obstructing karma, showing the power of its sealing and isolation.
At the center of the white-dark world, Luo Feng stood there, his aura no longer restrained, wantonly emanating. His incredibly terrifying physical body's aura had already affected the surrounding heavens and earth; even the most fundamental rules retreated.
Such terrifying aura made all the Chaos Realm Transcendents present tremble in their hearts.
