Before long, the “Fire Realm Feast” that led the Black Butcher to his epiphany and breakthrough was served.
“Mm!” Luo Feng devoured the feast, his eyes lighting up with excitement. He was a regular at the Fire Realm Restaurant, but today’s banquet with large chunks of meat meticulously refined his godly body and stimulated his soul.
The soul stimulation was tenfold greater than before.
“Good, good, good.” Luo Feng praised repeatedly. The Fire Realm Restaurant’s fare already suited his taste, but now, after the Black Butcher’s culinary skills had broken through to the Source of Law realm, Luo Feng was becoming infatuated with the Fire Realm Feast.
It was simply delightful!
The completely transformed Fire Realm Feast was the top delicacy Luo Feng had ever tasted within Huyang City.
“This flavor…” Sang Shuiyun, who was tasting beside him, also seemed excited, “I’ve lived in Huyang City for so long, and the Black Butcher’s cooking skill can now be considered the best in Huyang City.”
There were indeed several eternal true gods in Huyang City who loved cooking, but the Black Butcher was the only one who had stepped into eternity through the art of cooking.
Having fully comprehended the essence of the Source of Law as a cultivator of the Law Lineage, his culinary arts were naturally even more extraordinary.
“This Fire Realm Feast, I feel, greatly benefits my cultivation,” Luo Feng could feel that the transformed “Fire Realm Feast” was even more effective than many auxiliary cultivation items.
“Brother Luo He, why not take the opportunity to understand the mysteries of artifact refining?” Sang Shuiyun suggested.
“Good idea, I certainly have some confusions,” Luo Feng mused as he ate and drank, contemplating the numerous intricacies of the Primal Chaos Great Strength Diagram for his third body refinement.
With more than two decades of cultivation experience, he had accumulated a great depth of knowledge.
Thinking all the while, Luo Feng also discussed with Sang Shuiyun. His insights seemed heightened by the soulful stimulation from the delectable food. Some perplexities cleared up after just a few words from Sang Shuiyun.
…
After the Black Butcher’s enlightenment of the Source of Law, his small cosmos back in his homeland began to expand.
“With Lord Luo He present, my transformation within the Fire Realm Restaurant is actually the safest,” the Black Butcher suppressed his excitement and meditated in the small building, patiently waiting for the expansion of his small cosmos to complete.
In his home region of the Primordial Cosmos, time flowed 10081 times faster than in the Land of Origin.
So, just in the time of a chat and drinks, his small cosmos back home had completed its transformation! The Black Butcher’s “True God’s Heart” had fully transformed, and his entire godly body began evolving to a higher level.
An endless stream of Divine Power transmitted from his distant homeland through the “True God’s Heart” to his whole body.
“I’ve finally broken through to the Eternal True God Realm,” the Black Butcher was overwhelmed with emotion, having waited far too long for this day! In Huyang City, he had seen guests come and go, always greeting them with a smile.
He had even maintained a smiling face under the pressure of the dark forces.
At last, he had made his breakthrough! He had fully entered the ranks of the powerful in Huyang City!
“Even though I’ve broken through, I’m just a newly advanced eternal true god. Within Huyang City, I still need to tread carefully. The most important thing for me is to maintain my relationship with Lord Luo He,” the Black Butcher was very clear about this.
He immediately left the small building and headed straight to where Luo Feng and Sang Shuiyun were.
Moyu Qingyan did not stop the Black Butcher, allowing the restaurant owner to go in.
“Black Butcher, congratulations,” Luo Feng said with a smile.
“My achievements today are all thanks to the Divine Monarch,” the Black Butcher bowed deeply in respect, “Without your protection, how could I have amassed such resources over these two decades and achieved today’s breakthrough? For this great kindness, I do not know how to repay you.”
Luo Feng laughed, “When I visit your restaurant in the future, just give me some discount. Now that your culinary skills are renowned as the best in Huyang City, the prices are sure to rise a hundredfold. I’m going to feel the pinch.”
“Divine Monarch, from now on, your meals at my restaurant will always be free,” the Black Butcher declared generously.
Luo Feng looked at the Black Butcher and said, “Then it’s a deal! I won’t pay with Primal Chaos Crystals anymore.”
The Black Butcher was somewhat excited by this and repeated, “It would be my honor.”
“Black Butcher, you’re really lucky,” Sang Shuiyun remarked as he looked at the Black Butcher.
At their level, they wouldn’t really take advantage of petty benefits from eating and drinking.
By saying this, Luo Feng was expressing an attitude — the Fire Realm Restaurant was his place!
After all, the strongest eternal true god of Huyang City who specializes in cooking may face many involuntary situations. With Luo Feng’s protection, the Black Butcher, a newly advanced eternal true god, could truly stand firm in Huyang City.
No choice, too many powers lurk in Huyang City, and a newly advanced eternal true god who doesn’t rely on a major power will encounter plenty of troubles. Unless one is unattached like Sang Shuiyun.
“I’ll go down and cook a few more dishes for the Divine Monarch,” the Black Butcher said with a laugh before excusing himself.
Inside the small building.
“Brother Luo He, are you going to protect the Black Butcher from now on?” Sang Shuiyun asked in surprise.
“In all of Huyang City, I like his cooking the best, and his temperament is also good,” Luo Feng said with a smile, “By protecting him, I’m also protecting my gastronomic pleasure.”
“You’re too kind, willing to help the weak,” Sang Shuiyun said, “Sometimes, being kind and benevolent can be costly in this world.”
Luo Feng looked at him, “My kindness depends on who the recipient is.”
“By the way, since you’re studying key skills in body refinement, are you interested in learning artifact refining?” Sang Shuiyun asked, “I know a bit about weapons, armors, and Mechanical Flow Secret Treasures. Although I’ve taken many disciples, in terms of talent in this area, you are far stronger than any of them.”
“I’m not interested for now,” Luo Feng replied, “When I am, I’ll ask you for guidance.”
“Alright, whenever you want to learn, I’ll teach you,” Sang Shuiyun was still willing to teach.
Actually, in terms of inheritance in artifact refining, his master Mountain sitting guest was a Godly King in the artifact refining lineage, so Luo Feng naturally had access to this system of inheritance. It’s just that understanding it was quite esoteric – having Sang Shuiyun’s guidance could save him from taking many detours.
The two of them talked about artifact refining and the situation in Huyang City. Only after they finished eating, drinking, and discussing, did they part ways.
“Let’s go.”
Luo Feng, carrying Morosa and Moyu Qingyan, left when the entire Fire Realm Restaurant was in a celebratory mood.
“Master has become an eternal true god.”
“Master has made a breakthrough.”
The many disciples of the Black Butcher, including Suo Zi, were wildly excited.
Previously, they were just disciples of a true god of void space! But now, they had ascended to heaven… each one of them had become a disciple of an eternal true god! Their status within Huyang City had greatly risen.
Under normal circumstances, how difficult it was to take an eternal true god as a master! And the price was even more exorbitant!
They were all from the lower echelons of Huyang City, merely learning from a true god of void space. Now, happiness had descended from the heavens, their master had broken through by himself! Naturally, each of these disciples was thrilled.
“Suo Zi, congratulations, you’ve really hit the jackpot, becoming a disciple of an eternal true god straight away,” Suo Yun, who had grown accustomed to looking down on his brother over the past two decades or so, said.
His brother was content to be a chef, something Suo Yun looked down upon, thinking him fearful, incompetent, and lacking in ambition.
Wanting to become powerful in a place like Huyang City, how could one not fight recklessly? Not take risks? Not seize every opportunity? If it weren’t for the frequent encounters with Lord Luo He, Suo Yun would have been too lazy to have too much to do with his brother.
But who would have thought fate could be so magical!
Suo Zi had actually become a disciple of an eternal true god.
“It’s the master’s greatness; we’re just lucky,” Suo Zi said, filled with joy at the moment.
Meanwhile, Luo Feng, Morosa, and Moyu Qingyan had already left on the Flying Boat.
…
Standing in the cabin of the Flying Boat, Luo Feng looked outside at the endless Huyang City covered in snow, so beautifully enshrouded in mist—Huyang City had completely turned into a city of ice and snow.
He really liked this city!
Coming to the Land of Origin, choosing to live in Huyang City. One reason was he wanted to see more of the world; another was to avoid the Primal Chaos Overlords and the Godly Kings. That’s why he chose this frontier metropolis ‘Huyang City’.
“Before becoming a Primal Chaos Overlord, it’s better to stay hidden here,” Luo Feng understood that he was still weak and not fit to clash with Primal Chaos Overlords.
“It’s time to prepare for the third body refinement,” thought Luo Feng.
After today’s conversation with Shang Tianyan, mastering the three body refinements of the Primal Chaos Great Strength Diagram was only a theory.
Those who could complete the three body refinements were considered skilled in the field of artifact refining. Luo Feng’s progress was so rapid that even Shang Tianyan wanted to teach him more artifact refining skills.
“The third body refinement requires materials estimated to be worth 3.6 million Cosmic Sand,” Luo Feng frowned slightly, “I only have just over a million Cosmic Sand, quite a bit short.”
“I’ll have to sell one of my Mechanical Flow Treasures.”
Luo Feng thought.
Of the four Mechanical Stream Secret Treasures currently in his possession, the Sha Wu Wings with ‘Control Primal Chaos’ and ‘Wing Blade’ were useful. The super-wide Primal Chaos Domain was still of great use to Luo Feng. Moreover, Sha Wu Wings held special significance to Luo Feng; naturally, he couldn’t sell it.
His primary method of combat relied on the Perfect Divine Body! The Myriad Realms Escape Command, a Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure, was of great help to him.
The Life Blood River was less important compared to the Myriad Realms Escape Command.
The Sword of the World’s Core, which only had the effect of ‘Condensing Primal Chaos Divine Power’, was of no use to Luo Feng, as his Perfect Divine Power, with the aid of Sha Wu Wings and Life Blood River, transformed and condensed power no less than Primal Chaos Divine Power.
“Within Huyang City, there are mainly three forces: the city owner’s mansion, the Shi Kingdom, and the third local force,” Luo Feng considered, “Let the city owner’s mansion and the local force make an offer.”
“Whoever offers more, I’ll sell to them.”
Luo Feng made his plan and immediately sent a message to Moli Meng and Zhu You, informing them that he intended to sell the Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure ‘Sword of the World’s Core’.
******
The Sword of the World’s Core held little attraction for Luo Feng.
But for eternal true gods with higher realms and those who had mastered moves of the Primal Chaos Realm, it was very attractive! Their Divine Power was not as pure as Luo Feng’s. Possessing the Sword of the World’s Core could significantly boost their strength.
‘Ying Cang’ relied on the Sword of the World’s Core for such terrifying assassination power.
While the city owner’s mansion and local forces were all focused on the Sword of the World’s Core, an ordinary-looking dark red Flying Boat arrived at Huyang City.
Inside the dark red Flying Boat.
Two figures stood in the cabin, looking out at the city.
“It seems the Marquis is ready to act, to fully seize Huyang City,” a female figure with an icy body said, “That is why he sent the second brother here to join forces with Xue Yun.”
“Behind Huyang City stands the Marquis of Jiu Jiang,” the burly figure stood firm as if he himself were an unshakable world, “Although Marquis of Jiu Jiang has quite a reputation, he is still a notch below the Marquis compared to our superior.”
The icy-bodied female nodded in agreement.
Though both were venerable Primal Chaos Overlords, fame was built over long years through strength. The ‘Marquis Liu Yin’ of their backing, Shi Kingdom, indeed had a greater reputation than the Marquis of Jiu Jiang.
“Our siblings, as well as Xue Yun, together, are enough to turn Huyang City upside down!” the burly figure declared, “It’s just that this Xue Yun is too cautious, unwilling to take risks, and hasn’t made big gains in Huyang City. When I see him later, I’d like to compare our strength… if he’s less powerful than me, he’ll have to listen to me.”
“This Xue Yun, although he is from an older generation, is probably not a match for my second brother,” said the icy-bodied female, well aware of her second brother’s strength.
“We’ll know after we compare,” said the burly figure.
The dark red Flying Boat moved quietly forward to meet with Divine Monarch Xue Yun.
