Chapter 7: Arrival at Huyang City
Chapter 7: Arrival at Huyang City
“He hasn’t even arrived at Huyang City and he’s dead?” President Zanyun pondered, “Where did he die? And why? I have no idea. This must be reported immediately!”
He did not dare to hesitate. With a single thought, a small universe descended, clouds rolled around Tianyun Tower, naturally concealing the entire top floor.
When Eternal True Gods used the ‘Universe Creation with a Thought’ technique, it was usually silent and subtle. The descending cosmic scene seamlessly integrated with the surrounding environment, completely controlling the area.
President Zanyun then stood up and respectfully performed a secret technique. A speck of blood-colored flame emerged out of thin air, exuding an aura of calamity and darkness.
“Lord Hou,” President Zanyun respectfully said, “Just now, my communication token could no longer sense Black Domor.”
“His life token has shattered; he is indeed dead,” the blood-colored flame slowly emitted a disastrous aura. “Did he die right after arriving at Huyang City? Was it an expert sent by Yuguo or by Jiugang Marquis?”
Shiguo eyed the surrounding Divine Kingdoms covetously, and the relationship between Shiguo and Yuguo was naturally poor, with their covert struggles never ceasing.
Losing subordinates was quite normal.
“He hasn’t even reached Huyang City,” President Zanyun immediately explained.
“Oh?” The blood-colored flame was puzzled. “He should have arrived.”“Black Domor was supposed to arrive today, the last day of the deadline,” President Zanyun respectfully said, “Just today, I even contacted and urged him. He said he needed a few more days to arrive but didn’t mention anything else.”
The blood-colored flame’s voice emerged, “Since he said he would arrive in a few days, he should still be within Jiugang Chaos State. Keep an eye on it and find out how he died.”
“Yes,” President Zanyun respectfully replied, “Lord Hou, my experts are a bit scarce…”
“Very soon, that won’t be an issue,” the blood-colored flame then disappeared.
President Zanyun breathed a sigh of relief. “Black Domor, that fool, lost his life just traveling. Whoever killed him must be extraordinarily powerful. I have no ability to investigate! I’m sure Lord Hou won’t blame me.”
Serving a Chaos Sovereign, even venturing into another kingdom’s territory, taking such a huge risk, of course, President Zanyun wanted to reap significant benefits.
As for risking his life? He would avoid it if possible.
Behind Black Domor’s death, there was undoubtedly a formidable expert, and President Zanyun had no intention of investigating.
Had he charged ahead recklessly in everything, he wouldn’t have lived this long.

Under the night sky.
Luo Feng sat cross-legged beside a Blue-Purple Blood Crystal Flower.
That captured flying boat could wait until the Blue-Purple Blood Crystal Flower was harvested before being released.
“I arrived on Origin Continent and fought the local Eternal True Gods for the first time. It indeed exposed many of my weaknesses,” Luo Feng thought, “I have just become an Eternal True God and haven’t started practicing many secret techniques.”
In this encounter, he was thoroughly beaten in close combat.
Relying on his Perfect Divine Body, he withstood all the attacks.
“If I encounter one adept at trapping enemies, I might be subdued in just two or three moves. Then I would have to rely on willpower techniques or mechanical treasures!” Luo Feng thought, “In the long run, my future opponents will likely be at the level of the three masters of Shiguo.”
“So, I still need to enhance my strengths, practice the Lieu Yuan Technique, and elevate my willpower to a higher level!”
“At the same time, improving my major realm is crucial. I need to find a way to break through to the Chaos Sovereign realm.”
“To become a Chaos Sovereign, one must comprehend the Chaos Laws,” Luo Feng thought, “On one hand, actively comprehend the Chaos Laws; on the other hand, learn some secret techniques related to Chaos Laws.”
From practice, grasp some basic mysteries of the Chaos Laws.
Combining practice and theory, mastering the Chaos Laws could be faster.
“The body refinement secret techniques I chose, the Chaos Force Diagram and Nine Blades of Breaking the Realm, are all paths to the Chaos Realm.” Luo Feng lacked no secret techniques, only resources.
“In the future, I will primarily practice Chaos Force Diagram, Nine Blades of Breaking the Realm, and Lieu Yuan Technique, and additionally practice Annihilation, Donghua, and Nine Specter Realm.”
From the perspective of his own growth, he decided on the main and auxiliary practices.
The three major inheritances of the Undying River of the Broken Eastern River lineage were good but mainly auxiliary, making past inheritors more adept at preserving their lives. As for resources, inheritors had to fight for them themselves.
“This Chaos Force Diagram requires refining the divine body like a treasure, needing vast resources. I wonder how long this one Blue-Purple Blood Crystal Flower will last me,” Luo Feng thought.
The key to the divine body was the True God’s Heart. As long as it was protected from damage, the divine body could be refined at will.
Hence, generation after generation of strong practitioners on the Origin Continent created various body refinement secret techniques. Undoubtedly, the stronger the divine body’s foundation, the better the effects after practicing these techniques. Luo Feng, with his Perfect Divine Body, naturally chose body refinement techniques to make his divine body even stronger!
“The resources needed for body refinement techniques can only be purchased in Huyang City,” Luo Feng decided, then began to comprehend the Nine Blades of Breaking the Realm.
…
In one of the spaces within the Star Tower.
A flying boat was there, and the clan leader, along with more than a dozen True Gods, looked around this space in confusion. The surroundings were gray and misty, with time and space completely sealed, making it impossible to leave.
“Clan leader, what does the Supreme One intend to do with us here?”
“Could it be that we will be used as test subjects?”
“I heard that many True Gods go to test medicines in Huyang City. Is this Supreme One planning to use us as test subjects?” The True Gods in the group speculated, feeling uneasy, as they were powerless to resist.
Suo Zhi and Suo Yun, the two young True Gods, also listened to the elders’ discussions with various worries.
The clan leader smiled, “If it weren’t for this Supreme One, we would all be dead by now. This Supreme One has saved our lives. If he needs us to do something, it is our opportunity. In Huyang City, many True Gods are eager to work for an Eternal True God but have no chance.”
Having dealt with Eternal True Gods before, the clan leader knew very well that these lofty beings did not care about the weak.
Since he had saved them, he would not kill them unnecessarily.
“Clan leader, what should we do now?” Suo Zhi asked.
“Wait patiently,” the clan leader replied.
…
Day and night alternated.
A day on the Origin Continent was very long. Luo Feng had been cultivating beside the Blue-Purple Blood Crystal Flower for three days, gaining some insights into the Nine Blades of Breaking the Realm, Lieu Yuan Technique, and Annihilation.
“A day on the Origin Continent is as long as a year on my home planet, Earth,” Luo Feng thought.
The sky was now bright, with white clouds floating. It was daytime, but if one looked up, they could still see a few of the brightest stars.
“Hmm?”
Luo Feng suddenly smelled a stronger fragrance from the flower, which made his soul feel incredibly pleasant. He turned to see the Blue-Purple Blood Crystal Flower swaying gently, its petals seemingly glowing.
“It’s finally fully matured.” Luo Feng smiled. After emitting the strongest fragrance, the Blue-Purple Blood Crystal Flower’s glow finally receded, becoming ordinary and silently falling from its stem.
With a wave of his hand, Luo Feng enveloped the flower with his divine power, making it float before him.
“I heard this Blue-Purple Blood Crystal Flower greatly aids in bloodline cultivation,” Luo Feng admired, “But I’m not native to the Origin Continent and cannot perform bloodline cultivation.”
The geniuses who came from the three thousand original universes through the cycle of reincarnation to the Origin Continent could only comprehend laws.
Natives of the Origin Continent had various latent special bloodlines, qualifying them for ‘bloodline cultivation.’
Luo Feng stored the Blue-Purple Blood Crystal Flower in a wooden box.
“It’s time to go to Huyang City.”
With a step, Luo Feng traversed the void, simultaneously summoning Morosa and Moyu Hu.
“Moyu Hu, continue to guide the way,” Luo Feng instructed.
“Yes,” Moyu Hu dared not ask more. He glanced around and continued to lead the way.
Luo Feng glanced at Morosa beside him, “You seem delighted, have you had a fruitful harvest?”
“Indeed, I’ve had quite a good harvest,” Morosa showed a joyful expression, communicating through spiritual voice, “Master, if I could have such opportunities a thousand times, I might reach the Chaos Realm.”
Luo Feng gave him a glance.
Devouring a thousand Eternal True Gods? What a dream!
“You better continue absorbing the power of heaven and earth,” Luo Feng said, paying him no more heed. On the Origin Continent, the energy in the heavens and earth was so dense that it turned into mist, and absorbing this energy was also quite effective.
Whoosh—
After traversing the void for a long time, Luo Feng’s eyes suddenly lit up.
“What’s that?” With his Perfect Divine Body, Luo Feng could observe far and wide, and now he saw a vast, towering city at the end of his flight path
.
The city looked like the wall of the world; its walls were taller than any mountain Luo Feng had seen since coming to the Origin Continent! Compared to the height of these walls, Black Domor’s true form was less than one ten-thousandth.
Under the clouds formed by the energy of heaven and earth, the towering city was faintly visible, with Luo Feng unable to see the end of its walls.
“Though I knew the large cities on the Origin Continent were enormous, seeing it with my own eyes is still shocking,” Luo Feng thought.
“Supreme One, we are about to reach Huyang City,” Moyu Hu, also seeing the city’s outline in the distance, said, “There are only three large cities in the entire Jiugang Chaos State, each built on a Chaos Ruin, constructed jointly by mechanical experts, forming incredibly sturdy fortress cities.”
As they flew closer, Moyu Hu pointed ahead, “Supreme One, the eastern gate of Huyang City is ahead. The two enormous objects floating above the eastern city wall are two of Huyang’s ten military corps—the Vine Jiao Corps and the Golden Jade Corps!”
Luo Feng saw a massive plant floating above the southern side of the city wall, entirely green, with numerous vines. He could see countless True Gods entering and exiting through the vines.
Above the northern side of the city wall floated a huge golden octahedron, with countless True Gods entering and exiting through light bands.
A giant plant and a golden octahedron—these were two of Huyang’s ten military corps.
