Swallowed Star 2: Origin Continent

Chapter 32: Foreign Powerhouses

Deep within an ancient mountain range, a tribe resided and thrived. At this moment, however, the tribal settlement was silent, with tens of thousands of beings lying motionless within the tribe.

Suddenly—

Threads of breath flew out from the bodies of these tens of thousands of beings. These threads merged into one, forming a figure in a gray robe, his face obscured by his clothing.

“The minds of these tens of thousands of beings are too weak. My bloodline has devoured their consciousness without any resistance,” the gray-robed figure shook his head slightly. “Even if I devour hundreds of millions of such weak true gods, it would scarcely benefit me.”

“I still need some precious resources. If I could absorb the blood essence of a Chaos-grade beast, it would be much more helpful,” the gray-robed figure thought.

“Following the bloodline cultivation path to become a Chaos Overlord is incredibly difficult.”

The bloodline cultivation path was easy in the early stages, but as one progressed, the need for resources increased exponentially. The limit of bloodline cultivation on the Origin Continent was the ‘Chaos Overlord’ realm. To break through to the Chaos Overlord level naturally had numerous thresholds.

“Hmm?” The gray-robed figure flipped his hand to take out the Causality Communication Token. He was not worried about being traced by causality because the lofty Chaos Overlords didn’t care about him, and as for the Eternal True Gods?

In his eyes, Eternal True Gods were merely his prey!

“Jiugang Chaos State, Huyang City, Luo He? He killed the leader of a dark force in Huyang City, ‘Blood Python Society President Mu Yang’, and possesses at least two mechanical flow treasures valued at possibly over 6.5 million Cosmos Sand?” The gray-robed figure was tempted.

“In terms of sneak attacks and assassinations, few Eternal True Gods can survive my hands,” the gray-robed figure was confident.

He had traversed many Chaos States and had rich experience in fighting strong opponents.

“Let’s go to Huyang City. Once there, I’ll visit the Yan Feng Pavilion to investigate this Luo He’s details and then formulate a sneak attack plan.” With a movement, the gray-robed figure merged completely into the world, disappearing.

He was moving through the void at terrifying speed, heading straight for Huyang City in Jiugang Chaos State.

Meanwhile, in the area he had just left, the bodies of the tens of thousands of beings lying there disintegrated silently.

Many tribal people living in the wild longed to live in large cities. This was because in the wild, one might encounter a catastrophic disaster any day.

A terrifying beast passing by could devour an entire tribe in one bite.

An Eternal True God passing by might annihilate a tribe with a flip of his hand for cultivation, wealth, or simply to vent his anger.

Only by living in a city could one have a stable life.

Huyang City.

“Brother Entropy, do you have time? I’ll treat you at the Fire Realm Restaurant,” Luo Feng contacted Entropy Tianyan.

“If Brother Luo He is treating, how many Eternal True Gods in the entire Huyang City wouldn’t eagerly accept? Of course, I have time! I can set off right now!” Entropy Tianyan replied enthusiastically.

“Haha, good, see you at the Fire Realm Restaurant later.” Luo Feng liked Entropy Tianyan’s straightforward nature.

With the appointment made, Luo Feng immediately set off with Morosa and Moyu Qingyan.

Inside a flying boat.

Morosa said from the side, “Master, Entropy Tianyan is just an ordinary Eternal True God. Why do you give him so much face?”

In Morosa’s eyes, his master Luo Feng, who could enslave boundary beasts and possessed a Perfect Divine Body, was definitely a genius among geniuses. Ordinary Eternal True Gods were not worth much attention from his master.

“Making friends is not just about strength,” Luo Feng said.

“Is that so?” Morosa didn’t quite understand. In his eyes, those ordinary Eternal True Gods were just food.

“Besides, I have favors to ask from Brother Entropy,” Luo Feng said. “I often ask him about refining techniques, and he always guides me without reservation.”

Morosa said, “It’s his great fortune that Master asks for his help.”

Moyu Qingyan, listening on the side, didn’t dare to interrupt.

He sometimes wondered why his master, who was very powerful, allowed Divine Lord Morosa, just a Void True God, to speak so casually.

“Master is too kind to tolerate Divine Lord Morosa’s disrespect,” Moyu Qingyan thought. He didn’t dare be disrespectful himself.

“Qingyan,” Luo Feng spoke.

“Master,” Moyu Qingyan responded respectfully.

“I heard from Magili Meng that your father ‘Moyu Hu’ has taken a position in the City Lord’s Mansion?” Luo Feng asked.

Moyu Qingyan said, “My father also instructed me to thank you when you came out of seclusion. I had been looking for an opportunity to mention it.”

“Thank me? Your father is very polite,” Luo Feng nodded.

“My father has always been dedicated to the three of us brothers. I was fortunate to follow you, Master. My father also managed to get my elder brother into the Zhu Clan and my younger brother into the Tianyan Sect,” Moyu Qingyan said. “Later, after you killed Blood Python President, my father was recruited into the City Lord’s Mansion. My elder brother also made rapid progress in the Zhu Clan, being accepted as a disciple by an Eternal True God ‘Zhu You’.”

Luo Feng was surprised, “An Eternal True God from the Zhu Clan ‘Zhu You’ accepted your elder brother as a disciple?”

“Yes,” Moyu Qingyan nodded. “My father said that both the City Lord’s Mansion and the Zhu Clan want to associate with you, Master. There are few in Huyang City connected to you, so they showed favor to my father and us brothers.”

Luo Feng smiled.

Indeed, he had only two followers, Morosa and Moyu Qingyan.

Various forces could only start with the Moyu family, which had greatly changed the family’s fortunes.

“What about your younger brother?” Luo Feng asked.

“My younger brother is still learning basic techniques in the Tianyan Sect,” Moyu Qingyan said. “The refining techniques in the Tianyan Sect have strict requirements. He must learn step by step from the basics.”

Luo Feng nodded. “Your father is quite adept at choosing. The Tianyan Sect has a good reputation, and their sect leader Entropy Tianyan is my friend. The Zhu Clan is also the number one local family in Huyang City. He sent one child to the Tianyan Sect and another to the Zhu Clan, showing great care.”

The City Lord’s Mansion’s five great families were not local families.

They were either branches of Divine King families or branches of Chaos Overlord families.

The strongest local family, rooted and prospering in Huyang City, was the Zhu Clan. The Zhu Clan was straightforward in their business dealings and didn’t involve themselves with dark forces, but their strength was formidable.

In Huyang City, those capable of killing Blood Python President were few, and the Zhu Clan’s leader, ‘Zhu Hu,’ was one of them!

In terms of strength, none of the five great families dared claim to be stronger than the Zhu Clan. However, in terms of background, the five great families had such vast backgrounds that they could summon terrifying beings at any time.

“My father did indeed go to great lengths for us three brothers. But for my father to enter the City Lord’s Mansion, and my elder brother to be accepted by an Eternal True God, we have you to thank, Master,” Moyu Qingyan said gratefully.

“If you want to thank me, master the ten basic laws as soon as possible,” Luo Feng said.

“Yes,” Moyu Qingyan knew he had encountered a great fortune, but he had to seize it!

Mastering the ten basic laws was the first test for being accepted as a disciple. He devoted over ninety percent of his time to comprehending these laws daily, not daring to slack off. He even tried to please ‘Divine Lord Morosa,’ seeking his guidance.

…

Fire Realm Restaurant.

“Your Excellency!” The Black Butcher greeted enthusiastically in advance. Recently, as time passed, news of Blood Python President being killed by Luo He had spread from Huyang City’s upper echelons to the middle echelons.

The Black Butcher, who managed a restaurant and was well-informed, had heard the news.

Moreover, with the Blood Python Society’s headquarters turned to ruins, the merchants who had to pay ‘tribute fees’ had been discussing it fervently.

“Haha…” Luo Feng looked at the excited Black Butcher and joked, “Black Butcher, has the Blood Python Society waived your tribute fees?”

“The Blood Python Society is gone, so naturally, there’s no tribute fee,” the Black Butcher said gratefully. “Moreover, the two dark forces vying for the Blood Python Society’s territory have both told me that my Fire Realm Restaurant will be exempt from tribute fees in the future.”

“The two dark forces vying for the Blood Python Society’s territory? Who are they?” Luo Feng asked curiously.

“One is the Qianshan Pavilion, and the other is the Six Lords Alliance. But they are very friendly to my Fire Realm Restaurant,” the Black Butcher said gratefully. “I know it’s all because of you, Your Excellency.”

Luo Feng smiled slightly. “They are quite sensible.”

“They fear if they take tribute fees, you’ll destroy them too,” Entropy Tianyan walked out from a distant small building. “Brother Luo He, you’re

slower than me even when treating.”

“I came as fast as I could,” Luo Feng laughed, walking over. “Black Butcher, prepare some food and drink, and put in some extra effort.”

“I will do my utmost,” the Black Butcher said energetically.

Luo Feng and Entropy Tianyan entered the small building together.

“Feel like many forces in Huyang City revolve around you now?” Entropy Tianyan laughed. “Huyang City seems full of strong beings, but ultimately, the most powerful ones decide everything. And now, you are one of those who influence the order. Most importantly, you have no attachments, no family! Naturally, many forces want to win you over, willing to pay a high price.”

“Want to win me over? I won’t even look at ordinary offers,” Luo Feng personally poured wine for Entropy Tianyan. “Come, let’s drink.”

“Few have the privilege of drinking wine poured by Brother Luo He himself,” Entropy Tianyan said happily, lifting his cup.

After a cup of wine, Entropy Tianyan looked out in surprise.

At this moment, Moyu Qingyan was naturally standing guard outside the small building, while Morosa was sitting on a large rock not far away, holding a jug of wine and drinking while also ordering some food from the Fire Realm Restaurant.

“Your follower is quite casual,” Entropy Tianyan said.

“He has followed me since I was a True God. Though he is called a follower, he is like a brother,” Luo Feng said. “By the way, I invited you today because I encountered some confusion in body refinement.”

“Body refinement is just a branch of refining. Feel free to ask anything,” Entropy Tianyan said with great confidence when it came to refining.

One asked, one answered.

Luo Feng asked about some perplexing aspects of the second body refinement in the “Chaos Force Diagram,” and Entropy Tianyan explained them from various angles, making Luo Feng suddenly see the light.
