Flame Wind Ancient Country, Chu Capital, Palace of Emperor Chu.
Within the ancient hall, a towering figure opened his eyes and murmured in a low voice, “To fully comprehend a complete Origin Great Dao is far too difficult. No wonder the ‘Enlightened One Lineage’ holds the most honored status.”
After ceasing his cultivation, Emperor Chu looked around; all the rules and regulations of his surroundings were clearly visible to him, and he also sensed a change in one of the many threads of causality entwined with himself.
The reason he focused on this thread of causality was that it was deeply entangled with him—it was the causality between himself and his direct disciple, Luo Feng!
In the Land of Origin, the relationship between master and disciple is no less than that of blood relatives, and the intertwining of causality can be imagined.
“Luo Feng, has he made a breakthrough?” Emperor Chu revealed a smile, sensing that the other end of their entwined causality—’Luo Feng’—had grown much stronger, “Through the sense of causality, he has become much more powerful than before, almost comparable to the Second Realm of Godly King.”
Seeing his disciple become so strong naturally filled Emperor Chu with joy.
“Luo Feng, come to see me at once,” Emperor Chu transmitted his voice through the causality, reaching out from afar.
“Yes, Master.” Luo Feng responded through causality. In the past, Luo Feng did not have the ability to communicate through causality, but after becoming a Godly King, the laws of his world became much more powerful, and his control over causality deepened.
Soon, Luo Feng arrived at the Palace of Emperor Chu.
“Master,” Luo Feng entered the hall and immediately offered his respectful salutations.
This avatar of his also contained one-thousandth of a World Life Form’s energy reserves, merely with this avatar… he was indeed worthy of being called invincible within the First Realm of Godly King.
“The gap between my teacher and me remains vast.” This time, Luo Feng’s sensing was even clearer. In his perception, Emperor Chu was like the embodiment of the Great Dao of Destruction Origin, like an immense world that was unshakable, every move carrying boundless destructive might.
Luo Feng’s avatar, with life preservation capabilities surpassing even the Ancestral God of the Snow Realm, felt that if his master were to make a move, it would likely annihilate this avatar within two or three strikes.
“Good!” Emperor Chu’s eyes shone with a mysterious light, scrutinizing his disciple from various aspects, and praising him, “Luo Feng, I didn’t expect that having just become a Godly King, you could cultivate the Great Dao of Life and Matter to such profound depths. The combination of the two is even more ingenious, achieving such a powerful physical body.”
“Master flatters me,” Luo Feng felt somewhat ashamed.
He had not cultivated the Origin Dao of Matter.
What he truly cultivated concurrently were the Great Dao of Life and Destruction.
“There’s no need for modesty,” Emperor Chu exclaimed with admiration, “Across the Land of Origin, those who reach invincibility in the First Realm of Godly King without external aid are rare! And you, you’ve just become a Godly King and have already reached this level… haha, no amount of praise is too much!” Experience more on empire
“Master, what do you think of this body of mine? When facing powerful enemies in the future, what should I be wary of?” Luo Feng inquired, as his master was far more experienced and knowledgeable than he was.
“This body of yours is robust and profound, difficult to erode by conventional means, deeply attuned to the mysteries of the ‘Origin Dao of Matter,'” Emperor Chu noted, “and it also integrates the Great Dao of Life Origin. I have a feeling… that even if I strike with all my might and annihilate you, your physical body could still recover from nothingness, brimming with life force.”
“I’m afraid it would take several strikes for me, each one having to break through the Braided Cage’s barriers and annihilate everything, to completely obliterate your physical body,” Emperor Chu stated, “Below the level of Emperors, I fear none could eradicate your physical body.”
Luo Feng understood.
The paths of Life and Matter are both difficult to erode. Combined, their effects naturally stack.
However, a World Life Form puts a great strain on the spirit. They generally can’t execute intricate techniques, and it’s only when Luo Feng wields an avatar with ‘one-thousandth’ of the energy reserve, that he can perform elaborate maneuvers.
“I know you’re also skilled in the Clone Technique,” Emperor Chu said with a smile, “At your level, even Emperors and Monarchs must use their True Bodies to instantly annihilate one of your avatars, granting all your other avatars sufficient time to employ the Reincarnation Technique.”
Luo Feng knew that his ability to preserve life was even more formidable than his master realized.
The True Body of a World Life Form held a thousand times more energy reserves than an avatar! Even Emperors and Monarchs, as powerful as they are, would need some time to destroy it… of course, it would still only take a bit longer.
“Looking over the entire Land of Origin, only four beings can truly kill you,” Emperor Chu declared.
“Which four?” Luo Feng inquired.
“Two Ancestors, the Ancestor from the East Extreme Domain, and Emperor Qing,” Emperor Chu replied, “They have all transcended the Ultimate Realm of God King.”
Luo Feng was shaken. His master had not previously elaborated on the top-tier powers of the Land of Origin, but this time there were no more secrets.
Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng, “You’ve cultivated to your current realm. It’s time you understood the truly terrifying entities of the Land of Origin.”
“These four are very detached; you won’t provoke them for now,” Emperor Chu said with a smile, “When the day comes that you can provoke them, the gap between you and them might not be so large.”
Luo Feng was surprised, only to find Emperor Chu watching him with a smile, “Have confidence. Who knows, maybe one day you might become stronger than the two Ancestors. What cultivator lacks confidence?”
“Indeed,” Luo Feng concurred.
“In any case, it’s still best to avoid Emperors and Monarchs,” Emperor Chu advised, “Especially those cultivating the Primordial Bloodline, for they are always tainted by its corruption night and day, and tend to have foul tempers.”
“Disciple understands,” Luo Feng replied, aware that in the Thunder Ancient Country there was even a half-out-of-control Monarch level powerhouse. Although other Emperors and Monarchs weren’t out of control, their nasty dispositions were entirely understandable.
Marquis Chu Yuan’s temper was something Luo Feng had witnessed before.
“The path of cultivation is difficult. When you reach the Second Realm of Godly King, you will feel it even more clearly,” Emperor Chu said, “Just like it’s easy to comprehend ten basic laws, but to fuse these ten laws into one, to comprehend the ‘Law of Primal Chaos’, is many times more difficult. Similarly, it’s easy to comprehend a few branches of a great dao, but to perfectly fuse them into one complete dao is very difficult.”
“Even I haven’t been able to do it,” Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng.
“Emperors and Monarchs are life forms of the Ultimate Realm of God King, but almost all of them rely on external forces,” Emperor Chu said. “Only Emperor Qing and the Lord of Ten Thousand Realms from this current era of the Land of Origin have truly comprehended a complete Origin Great Dao on their own.”
Luo Feng nodded.
Two Ancestors who transcended the Ultimate Realm of God King and the Ancestral God of the East Extreme Domain were from the previous Reincarnation Era.
Emperor Qing was indeed formidable. As one of the two peerless powerhouses who had comprehended a complete Origin Great Dao in this era, he had even transcended the Ultimate Realm. No wonder he was so extraordinary among the thirteen Emperors.
“When one’s life steps into the Ultimate Realm of God King, there are three paths,” Emperor Chu explained patiently to his disciple.
“The first path is to comprehend a complete Origin Great Dao! This path is the most difficult—Emperor Qing and the Lord of Ten Thousand Realms have done it this way.”
“The second path is like the one your master has taken—relying on a powerful inheritance to comprehend the ‘Secret Technique for Ultimate Realm Life Forms’ at the pinnacle of the Second Realm of Godly King. Using this secret technique and supplemented by precious Primordial Materials, one can fully transition their life into the Ultimate Realm. After the transformation, every action carries boundless power.”
“Lastly, there’s the Primordial Bloodline route, unlocking the potential of the Primordial Bloodline and causing one’s life form to evolve to the Ultimate Realm of God King! This path is relatively easier and has a higher ceiling, but it comes with greater risks,” Emperor Chu explained.
Luo Feng understood.
All three paths could lead a life form to the Ultimate Realm.
Even the path his master had taken, Luo Feng could sense its difficulty: one first needs a record of the ‘Secret Technique for Ultimate Realm Life Forms.’ To comprehend an Ultimate Realm level secret technique within the Second Realm of Godly King! And then, with the provision of precious resources, one could succeed in the cultivation.
“When it comes to strength, we Emperors and Monarchs should be weaker than those who have comprehended a complete dao, like the ‘Lord of Ten Thousand Realms.’ Their secret techniques are more refined,” Emperor Chu said with a smile. “But we have powerful Weapon Secret Treasures bestowed by Ancestors. Combined with the secret treasures, we can naturally contend with the Lord of Ten Thousand Realms and that Sector Beast.”
Luo Feng understood.
The thirteen Emperors of the Flame Wind Imperial Clan were at least at the ‘Sector Beast’ level! Moreover, they each specialized in different abilities, making their collaboration even more terrifying.
Then there were Emperor Ming, Emperor Husband, and Emperor Qing—each one more dazzling than the last.
Of course, behind the imperial clan, there was also the Primogenitor Yan Feng, who didn’t participate in the Land of Origin’s conflicts.
“This is the strength of the high-level Flame Wind Ancient Country imperial clan,” Luo Feng sighed inwardly. It’s no wonder that the two imperial clans occupied most of the resources—their power was overwhelming in the Land of Origin.
Even the Lord of Ten Thousand Realms and the Sector Beast of Tianmu Kingdom had to find ways to make connections with the two Ancient Countries. The East Extreme Domain could only shrink into a corner of the continent…
“The Monarchs of Thunder Ancient Country are also terrifying,” Emperor Chu continued, “The Ancestor of Thunder followed the Primordial Bloodline Path himself, and all the Monarchs of Thunder Ancient Country cultivate the Primordial Bloodline. The power they exhibit is even more troublesome and fearsome than that of the Emperors of Flame Wind Ancient Country who cultivate the Primordial Bloodline.”
“Besides the two ancient imperial clans, there are the scattered God Kings,” Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng, “The other creatures of the Land of Origin constitute the vast majority, and the number of Second Realm God Kings they produce is far greater than those of our imperial clans.”
Of course, Luo Feng understood that places like the Reincarnation Tower had quite a few Second Realm God Kings.
“Among this group of Second Realm God Kings, there are also those of stunning brilliance. Their talents may even surpass mine,” Emperor Chu said, “They cultivate multiple Great Daos and powerful Special Grade Inheritances. Even if they haven’t stepped beyond life-wise, their many powerful secret techniques allow them to be comparable to us.”
“These scattered Second Realm God Kings need to cultivate, want to grow stronger, and hope to reach the Ultimate Realm too. Naturally, they contend for resources with our two great imperial clans,” Emperor Chu said with a smile. “They want to compete, and the imperial clans want to compete too, so naturally, conflicts arise, and so does animosity.”
“In the Land of Origin, there are also alien races stirring trouble in secret,” Emperor Chu shook his head. “Luo Feng, the stronger you get, the more cautious you must be in everything you do, lest you be foolishly exploited without even realizing it.”
Saying so, Emperor Chu extended his hand from afar, and a streak of flowing light flew towards Luo Feng.
Upon touching Luo Feng, a flood of information was transmitted.
Luo Feng was shocked.
Intelligence about the alien races in the shadows, information on some terrifying existences in the Land of Origin, reports on numerous treasure locations, chances left by Yuan, and detailed information on many fearsome powerhouses…
Aside from the scant descriptions of Emperor Qing, the Ancestral God of the East Extreme Domain, and the two Ancestors who were ‘Beyond God King Ultimate Realm,’ all other powerhouses were recorded in detail, including even some imprisoned mad beings.
Each piece of information, if bought, would be extremely expensive, and now it was all given to Luo Feng.
“Thank you, Master,” Luo Feng felt grateful.
“I am your master,” Emperor Chu said. “By the way, in the Land of Origin, there are some God Kings who cultivate the ‘Origin Dao of Causality.’ They have a deeper control over causality and can determine through it that your life has transformed. So, the news of you becoming a God King… It won’t take long for it to spread! You need to be prepared.”
