Luo Feng pondered the deep secret patterns of the Star Tower; countless secret patterns spiraled inward, even time began to stagnate when peering into the profound depths, and then, colorful secret patterns started to emerge at even deeper levels.
The end of the spiraling colorful secret patterns, there lay the blood-colored scales with a twelve-color edge.
Those blood-colored scales, as if representing the supreme rules.
They are supreme.
They are indestructible, eternal.
“The core of the Star Tower’s secret patterns is ‘the thickness, strength, and eternal existence of life’,” Luo Feng had observed too many times, staring directly at the blood-colored scales, which continuously assaulted and tainted his spiritual will.
Luo Feng temporarily withdrew from observation and began to operate his own power.
“Buzz.”
A phantom tower emerged, shaped like a triangular pyramid; the phantom tower gradually solidified, with secret patterns flowing on its surface.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, the phantom tower collapsed.
“How difficult is it to create a ‘Nine Branches Fusion Secret Technique’?” Luo Feng sighed softly.
Just like how ordinary cultivators of the Second Realm of Godly King can create some pinnacle God King Realm secret techniques without much difficulty, but to create an ‘Ultimate Realm Secret Technique,’ the difficulty soars! Figures like Emperor Gui Xu, the Wuxin God King, some emperors of the Flame Wind Ancient Country, monarchs of the Thunder Ancient Country spent endless ages and only created a few Ultimate Realm secret techniques.
The same principle applies.
To date, Luo Feng has created nine secret techniques for the Eight Branches Fusion Technique of the Great Dao of Life and Death.
The previous ‘Great Extinction Style,’ ‘Heavenly Light Silver Shuttle,’ ‘Black Light Escape Technique,’ ‘Blood Dripping,’ ‘Cage’ – these five techniques have also been perfected to the level of Eight Branches Fusion.
“Eight Branches Fusion is already easy for me, having created nine secret techniques. Yet for the Nine Branches Fusion Technique, I couldn’t create even one,” Luo Feng shook his head gently.
The Nine Branches Fusion Technique of the Great Dao of Life and Death belongs to the Ultimate Realm techniques of the Great Dao of Life and Death. Its difficulty is much higher than that of the Eight Branches Techniques.
Instead, with the Great Dao of Life and Destruction having clear Great Dao guidance, and after Luo Feng exchanged for the Destruction Scale and Lotus Heart Seed, he can now create Ultimate Realm secret techniques for them.
“Pure Great Dao of Life, Great Dao of Destruction, their Ultimate Realm secret techniques don’t seem difficult.”
“The fused Great Dao of Life and Death Nine Branches Fusion… is extremely difficult.”
Luo Feng tried to condense the phantom Star Tower with his own power.
The phantom Star Tower, to protect oneself! Pursuing the limit of defense!
“Why is the phantom Star Tower I condensed shaped like a triangular pyramid? Why is it not in the form of a nine-tiered tower?” Luo Feng realized that he still had a long way to go; even true Nine Branches Fusion was just scratching the surface of the Star Tower.
Luo Feng could only calm his mind and devote himself to cultivation.
“What’s wrong with the phantom Star Tower? Why can’t it stabilize?” Luo Feng studied the mystery of the secret patterns carefully as days passed by.
Suddenly, one day—

Long-term contemplation led to a qualitative change.
In Luo Feng’s mind, four branches of the Great Dao of Life and Death – ‘Heavenly Light Branch, Blood Dripping Branch, Walker Branch, Eternal Branch’ – suddenly fused perfectly into one, with no more confusion.
The Great Dao of Life and Death thus stepped into the Second Realm of Godly King!
From then on, Luo Feng had reached the Second Realm of Godly King in all three Daos of Life, Destruction, and Life and Death. Of course, the first two were much easier, and several Ultimate Realm secret techniques had been created.
“Hahaha, I managed to create nine ‘Eight Branches Fusion Techniques,’ and only then did the Great Dao of Life and Death step into the Second Realm of Godly King. Without accurate Great Dao guidance, the requirements for accumulation are indeed much higher,” Luo Feng was in high spirits, “I wonder how many reward points the Infinite Space will give.”
Infinite Space highly values spiritual will and the pioneering of Great Daos.
…
Infinite Space.
On an island in the heart of a lake, there were no spiritual beings, just an avatar of Luo Feng was here, with fog covering most of the lake.
“Second Realm of the Great Dao of Life and Death.” Luo Feng sat cross-legged on the shore of the island, looking at the lake in front of him, and with a single thought, he began to display the mysteries of the Great Dao.
Whoosh.
A streak of power left Luo Feng and flew out, drawing a trajectory in mid-air, effortlessly slicing through all layers of space and even cutting a black crack in the most fundamental membrane of Infinite Space, and then, this streak of power condensed into a drop of blood.
This drop of blood turned into a star, slowly rolling between heaven and earth, causing the universe to tremble.
Then this tiny star turned into a dark abyss, naturally beginning to devour everything around.
The dark abyss was collapsing, turning into a point of light, and with the appearance of the light point, a terrifying domain spread in all directions.
…
Just a streak of power fully displayed the many mysteries of the four branches of the Great Dao of Life and Death – ‘Heavenly Light Branch, Blood Dripping Branch, Walker Branch, Eternal Branch.’ Only by fully understanding the mysteries can one manipulate the four major branches to fuse and transform at will.
Finally—
“Buzz.”
An information imprint appeared in Luo Feng’s palm.
“Trialist: Luo Feng from the Land of Origin”
“Based on the Great Daos of Life and Destruction as the foundation, a new Dao has been opened. Evaluation of the new Dao: Special. Reward points: 100,000 points. On this new Dao, you have finally taken the second step, more effort is needed to fully master this Dao.”
“Before mastering a complete Dao, your spiritual will has successfully broken through the Godly King limit. Evaluation of the spiritual will: Special. Reward points: 100,000 points. Your spiritual will is excellent. Perhaps, you can go even further?”
“Reminder: Any killing of spiritual beings is prohibited. Violators will be completely expelled from Infinite Space.”
“Reward Points total to 184,193.03.”
Luo Feng, upon understanding this piece of information, felt quite encouraged.
Opening new paths, achieving the Second Realm of Godly King, rewards 100,000 points! Including the 100,000 points rewarded when Spiritual Will surpassed the Beyond God King Level. That’s a total of 200,000 points, by far the largest fortune of my own.
Having been in Infinite Space for so long, Luo Feng has always been cautious with the use of Reward Points.
Major expenditures were mainly for the Lotus Heart Seed and Destruction Scale!
As for exchanging inheritances, it was mainly the inheritances from the First and Second Realm of Godly King! Those extremely expensive inheritances, I haven’t yet had the heart to exchange.
“I can’t kill any Spiritual Beings, so the only way to get Reward Points… is to open new paths and continue to advance my Spiritual Will,” Luo Feng thought.
“Looking at the information description, fully mastering the ‘Great Dao of Life and Death’ should be rewarded.”
But Luo Feng also understood something.
Daos such as time, space, life, infinite, destruction, and so on, exist within the Supreme Rules; yet even so, throughout the long eras of Land of Origin, the only ones who could comprehend the complete daos on their own were Emperor Qing and the Lord of Ten Thousand Realms!
Great Dao of Life and Death, having no reference! The difficulty of comprehending the complete ‘Great Dao of Life and Death’… one can only imagine.
“Ordinary paths have guidance. Those Emperors and Monarchs who comprehend five or six Ultimate Realm Secret Techniques might not necessarily comprehend the entire dao. From this, one can infer that without guidance for the Great Dao of Life and Death, one would probably need to comprehend at least ten Ultimate Realm Secret Techniques to have a hope of unlocking the dao.”
“What does it mean for Spiritual Will to go a step further?” Luo Feng was somewhat puzzled.
Before mastering the Great Dao, reaching Divine Emperor Level in Spiritual Will is rated as Special Evaluation.
What then could be a step higher?
“Forget it.”
Luo Feng began to check the Infinite Space Treasure Vault.
“Hm?” Luo Feng was a bit surprised, “The ‘Divine King Ultimate Chapter’ of Perfection Level Inheritance is still unseen?”
Perfection Level Inheritance, the God King Second Realm Chapter, generally requires 10,000 Reward Points. The Ultimate Chapter? Luo Feng’s current Reward Points don’t even qualify to see it.
According to the pricing model of Infinite Space, the Ultimate Chapter is typically 20 times that of the God King Second Realm.
“I’m rated as Special Evaluation for both, and yet I don’t qualify to see the ‘Perfection Level Inheritance’s Ultimate Chapter.’ Just what kind of talent is needed to be eligible to learn the Ultimate Chapter of Perfection Level Inheritance?” Luo Feng lamented in secret.
“Relying on the Formless and Intangible, the Ultimate Realm Primordial Bloodline Creatures within Land of Origin are already my limit of transformation.” Luo Feng thought, “And I don’t cultivate the Origin Dao of Matter, so it’s unnecessary to exchange for the Ultimate Chapter of ‘World Life Form’.”
These Reward Points must be spent on the essentials.
Luo Feng carefully checked the information of one inheritance after another.
“Let’s see the treasures.”
Luo Feng was very interested in those treasures because, as Emperor Qing said, treasures that start from 100,000 Reward Points all lend a certain assistance to ‘escaping the Braided Cage’ and are also highly coveted by external cultivators.
…
The number one ranked treasure, a sword, requires 180,000 Reward Points to exchange.
This sword is crafted with materials from the corpse of a Primordial Ancestor. Thunder Dao, Destruction Path, and Material Path cultivators are all suitable for exchange, and by comprehending it, one may hope to escape the Braided Cage.
Reminder: Such treasures should be contemplated within the Source World, and must not be taken out of the Source World, otherwise endless troubles will ensue!
…
The second-ranked treasure, the Space-Time Mirror, requires 180,000 Reward Points to exchange.
This is a mirror refined from the rare treasures of Primordial Space, by which one can retain memories and reincarnate into any Source World without being rejected by any Source World’s Supreme Rules.
To cultivate under different Supreme Rules in different Source Worlds, the cultivation benefits are immense.
Reminder: 1. The Space-Time Mirror is suitable for exchange by those cultivating the paths of time or space. For cultivators of other paths, the gains from exchange are lower.
2. This treasure must not be taken out of the Source World.
…
One by one, the treasures left Luo Feng staring agape.
“Even if both the path opening and Spiritual Will reach Special Evaluation, exchanging for one of these treasures would almost deplete the Reward Points.” Luo Feng felt the high threshold for wanting to exchange for such treasures.
In the arrangement by Senior Yuan, even the most dazzling peerless talents could only exchange for one of such treasures!
“The treasure is not wasted, provided the talent is high enough,” Luo Feng mused as he continued to look.
Suddenly—
The thirty-fourth ranked treasure, the Eye of Life and Death, requires 120,000 Reward Points to exchange.
This is an eye, ‘Eye of Life and Death,’ refined from the whole body of a World Level Primordial Life ‘Life and Death Pupil Beast.’ By utilizing this eye, one can glimpse the ‘vitality’ of all things, as well as the ‘Destruction Weakness’ of all things.
It’s suitable for exchange by those on the path of life or destruction and can assist in comprehending the mysteries of life and destruction to aid in escaping the Braided Cage.
Reminder: This treasure must not be taken out of the Source World.
…
“A superb treasure.” Luo Feng’s heart soared with fervor.
There are other high-ranking treasures suitable for destruction, suitable for life.
The Eye of Life and Death, though, is simultaneously suitable for both life and destruction.
