Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

As time passed, more and more powerful beings arrived here.

Incarnations of Power of Primordial Ancestor, Primal Chaos City Lord, Zhenyan, and others rushed over. The birth of a true god of void space in the Primordial Cosmos was a significant event, attracting a great many onlookers.

"Luo Feng." Hong, Thunder Lord, the two of them also arrived by Secret Treasure.

"Big brother, second brother." Luo Feng greeted them with a smile. The three of them had started their journey from Earth, so their bond was naturally extraordinary.

"Once Mountain Sitting Guest makes a breakthrough, he'll have to face the Samsara, right?" Hong said. After all, he was also a True God. Luo Feng had already asked them to wait before making a breakthrough and to first discuss it with him and the Primordial Ancestor.

Luo Feng looked into the distance, "Right, after the breakthrough, one must face the Samsara within a year."

"Brother." Luo Hua, with their father Luo Hongguo, mother Gong Xin Lan, and under the protection of 'Ximo,' also arrived here.

"Mountain Sitting Guest is your teacher. His upcoming challenge in the Samsara is a given for us to witness," Luo Hongguo said. The fact that Mountain Sitting Guest was Luo Feng's teacher was widely known in the Primordial Cosmos.

Luo Feng nodded slightly and continued to watch the expanding miniature universe.

The expansion of the miniature universe continued for over a month, reaching a diameter of 7.2 billion light-years before stopping.

"Huff."

An elderly figure flew out from the miniature universe, it was Mountain Sitting Guest.

Luo Feng approached alone.

"Teacher." Luo Feng flew closer.

"I've been in the Primordial Cosmos for so long, it's time to return," Mountain Sitting Guest sighed. Though he had lived here for more than one Reincarnation Era, this place was ultimately not his homeland.

"Going to face the Samsara now?" Luo Feng looked at Mountain Sitting Guest.

Mountain Sitting Guest nodded, "Right now."

"How will we meet in the future?" Luo Feng asked.

After his teacher arrived at the Land of Origin, he was to undergo reincarnation. The Divine Power incarnation that remained in the Primordial Cosmos would also disperse, making it difficult to meet again.

"When it's time to meet, we will meet," Mountain Sitting Guest smiled at his disciple. "My greatest accomplishment since arriving in the Primordial Cosmos more than a Reincarnation Era ago was taking you as my disciple."

"A mediocre disciple primarily relies on his teacher's support. But a truly dazzling disciple, the teacher merely provides assistance," Mountain Sitting Guest looked at Luo Feng. "How far you can go ultimately depends on yourself."

Luo Feng nodded.

"Remember, don't rush," Mountain Sitting Guest reminded. "When you are strong enough, aiding me in my revenge is just the natural order of things. When you are not powerful enough, rashly intervening will only lead to your demise."

"I understand, I have patience," Luo Feng nodded.

Mountain Sitting Guest nodded, "I'm off to face the Samsara, no need to see me off!"

After speaking, Mountain Sitting Guest gave a slight nod to the many powerful beings in the distance and then flew toward the 'Samsara Channel' in the Tilted Peak Sector.

Luo Feng watched this scene from afar.

...

Everything went as planned. After Mountain Sitting Guest faced the Samsara and arrived at the Land of Origin, he quickly used the Reincarnation Secret Technique and was born as a native creature of the Land of Origin.

"Luo Feng." Primal Chaos City Lord hurried over.

"Teacher." Luo Feng greeted him. From starting his growth from Earth, Zhenyan, Primal Chaos City Lord, Mountain Sitting Guest, these three teachers had all provided him with great help, and he always respected these teachers.

"The miniature universe of Mountain Sitting Guest has begun to collapse!" Primal Chaos City Lord said anxiously.

Luo Feng nodded.

"He's your teacher, aren't you worried?" Primal Chaos City Lord asked in confusion. "You and many human True Gods have said that as long as one breaks through to the True God Realm before facing the Samsara, success is guaranteed. How could Mountain Sitting Guest have died?"

Primal Chaos City Lord didn't have much of a personal connection with Mountain Sitting Guest, but he had devoted his life to the human race, so he naturally worried about the future safety of so many human True Gods.

"Teacher Mountain Sitting Guest successfully faced the Samsara," Luo Feng said. "He died after he had completed it."

Primal Chaos City Lord was somewhat puzzled, "He died after he completed it?"

"Supreme laws limit what I can say," Luo Feng said.

"I understand," Primal Chaos City Lord nodded, aware of this limitation too.

Both the Primordial Ancestor and Luo Feng had faced the Samsara, one was the teacher of Primal Chaos City Lord, the other his disciple. He was very clear about the restrictions of the supreme laws.

"As long as one breaks through to the True God Realm, it is good to be safe in the Samsara," Primal Chaos City Lord nodded. "As for Mountain Sitting Guest..."

"In the future, you will know, teacher," Luo Feng said.

******

Land of Origin, Yu Kingdom, Huyang City.

"Boom, boom, boom~~~"

The doors of the underground grand hall in the cave mansion opened, and Luo Feng exited his retreat.

"Master." Morosa swiftly came to greet him, while Moyu Qingyan also quickly arrived from afar.

"Hmm." Luo Feng nodded to them. With a step, he reached a distant mountain, sat on a large rock, and drank alone.

This scene left Morosa and Moyu Qingyan looking at each other, somewhat perplexed.

"Get on with your business," Morosa instructed Moyu Qingyan, then quietly flew closer to Luo Feng, smiling obsequiously at him.

"What's up, Master? You seem a bit down," Morosa inquired.

"Not down," Luo Feng said softly, shaking his head,. His teacher had reincarnated to prepare for vengeance, and the biggest hope for his teacher's revenge was clearly on him, his disciple. Since the Shi Kingdom had managed to invade far and wide and survive to this day, it was definitely powerful. To confront the rulers of the Shi Kingdom...

it wasn't going to be easy, and Luo Feng naturally felt some pressure.

"Not down?" Morosa observed Luo Feng closely.

"I am contemplating several formidable enemies," Luo Feng said.

"Your enemies, Master? And more than one?" Morosa asked, "Who are they? Do you need my help?"

Luo Feng eased up a bit at the sight of Morosa.

He needed to hone his will, diligently practice secret techniques, and comprehend the laws, steadily increasing his strength step by step. But Morosa only needed to eat, drink, and absorb some energy to naturally reach a level far above the Shi Kingdom in the future.

"If I need your help, I'll tell you," Luo Feng said. "I believe I should be able to deal with them."

"When the time comes, leave the corpse to me," Morosa quickly reminded.

Luo Feng smiled, "Don't worry."

"By the way, Moli Meng has passed a message through Moyu Qingyan, wishing to visit you," Morosa said.

"He passed the message through Qingyan?" Luo Feng was surprised.

"It's said that Moyu Qingyan's father, 'Moyu Hu,' has been recruited by the city owner's mansion, and is now an official there," Morosa said with a smile.

Luo Feng had quite a good impression of 'Moyu Hu,' the first creature he had become acquainted with upon arriving in the Land of Origin. Moyu Hu would spare no effort for the sake of his three children. Just because of this, Luo Feng admired him greatly.

"Let Moli Meng come," Luo Feng said.

"Yes, I will make the arrangements immediately," Morosa left quickly.

Since the Moli Clan's cave mansion was also in the Primal Chaos Residential Area, it took only a moment for Moli Meng to arrive with Diaorong Qi for the visit.

"Lord Luo He," Moli Meng greeted with great enthusiasm.

"Supreme," Diaorong Qi, with tears in her eyes, immediately knelt down, "Thank you, Supreme, for taking action to avenge my father and the many lost lives of the Diaorong Family."

"Please, take a seat," Luo Feng said, already seated.

Moli Meng took a seat opposite Luo Feng, while Diaorong Qi sat to the side.

"I am Moli Meng, fortunate enough to serve as Deputy City Lord of Huyang City," Moli Meng said with a smile. "Hearing about Brother Luo He's slaying of the Blood Python Association Leader, I am filled with admiration and have come to visit."

The many important affairs of the city owner's mansion are decided jointly by the Five Great Families, and Moli Meng represents the Moli Clan, also serving as the Deputy City Lord.

"It's a trivial matter," Luo Feng remarked.

"It may be trivial to Brother Luo He, but to our city owner's mansion, it is certainly not. Throughout the Land of Origin, Dark Forces are innumerable and indestructible," Moli Meng said shaking his head. "Our city owner's mansion can only try to restrain them, unable to eradicate them completely.

If we do not give them a little sustenance, Dark Forces would completely turn hostile, rampantly killing and plundering."

"Maintaining order is not easy," Luo Feng nodded.

With a wealth of intelligence information from the veins of God King Jin and Duan Dong River, he was aware of how insanely berserk some terrifying beings could be, causing mayhem and plunder, against which the weaker True Gods were utterly powerless.

The city owner's mansion attempted to maintain balance by enforcing constraints while providing some sustenance. This had become a desirable place to live for the weaker True Gods.

"The residential areas of True Gods are absolutely safe! During the bustling day and at some thriving places at night, we absolutely forbid Dark Forces from making a move," Moli Meng continued. "But if someone wanders into secluded and shadowy places and gets killed by Dark Forces, there's nothing we can do."

"This is also to give Dark Forces a slight reprieve; otherwise, if they're driven too hard, they would defect to Shi Kingdom's Forces," Moli Meng said, shaking his head. "Shi Kingdom's Forces are truly the biggest scourge for the Huyang City."

Luo Feng listened.

"Little Qi, you may leave first," Moli Meng looked over at Diaorong Qi, who respectfully bowed to Luo Feng with gratitude before withdrawing.

"Brother Luo He," Moli Meng spoke in a low voice, "I want to ask, if the city owner's mansion offers a bounty, would you be willing to take action to kill the leader of Shi Kingdom's Forces, 'Xue Yun'?"

"I've heard that the leader of Shi Kingdom's Forces, 'Xue Yun,' has had several confrontations with the city owner's mansion. Even the full mobilization of Huyang City's great formation and the personal involvement of Commander Moli Xiao haven't been enough to deal with Xue Yun?" Luo Feng said.

Acting in Huyang City, the city owner's mansion has the advantage of home ground.

Yet, Xue Yun remains at large.

"He is very strong," Moli Meng admitted.

"So, you're looking to hire me. Naturally, the price has to be higher," Luo Feng said.

Moli Meng was surprised.

He really dared to accept?

"How much?" asked Moli Meng.

"Besides the bounty offered publicly by the Flame Wind Pavilion, I'd add an extra five million Cosmic Sand," Luo Feng said. "I can give it a try, but I do not guarantee success. If I fail, I won't ask for the bounty."

Moli Meng shook his head. "That's too high. If the city owner's mansion was really willing to offer that much, we would have already publicly put up a reward of six million Cosmic Sand at the Flame Wind Pavilion. That way, some terrifying powerhouses from other places would probably come rushing over."

"How much can you offer?" Luo Feng inquired.

"The current bounty from the blood cloud at the Flame Wind Pavilion is one million Cosmic Sand; we can add another million Cosmic Sand," Moli Meng said, looking at Luo Feng.

Luo Feng shook his head. "Too little!"

"If Brother Luo He is interested, I could think of a way, but adding five million Cosmic Sand is impossible," Moli Meng said.

"You folks better find Xue Yun first," Luo Feng said no more. Before killing the Blood Python Leader, Luo Feng had thought about dealing with Xue Yun. But the biggest problem... they couldn't find him.

Moli Meng nodded: "He's hiding very carefully. Once we find him, we'll contact you."

"We'll talk about it then," Luo Feng agreed.

"Oh, by the way, Brother Luo He, the Blood Python Leader must have sent messages to several forces before his death," Moli Meng said. "I've received one."

"Oh? What message did he send before he died?" Luo Feng asked.

"Brother Luo He, give me one communication imprint, and I will send you the message in full," Moli Meng said.

Luo Feng also took out a transmission token, and both parties left a communication imprint, enabling them to contact each other.

"An ordinary transmission token?" Moli Meng recognized it.

Such ordinary transmission tokens have a range slightly larger than that of Huyang City and can even be blocked by small Cosmic Domains. However, the more powerful beings are, the more willing they are to use these ordinary transmission tokens.

"This is the message he sent me," Moli Meng immediately sent Luo Feng a copy.

Luo Feng laughed upon seeing it: "His Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure is worth 1.5 million Cosmic Sand, and mine is worth 5 million Cosmic Sand? I wasn't aware that my Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure was so expensive."

Moli Meng was secretly alarmed; this Luo He was so confident that he didn't even hide his possession of the Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure right in front of him.

Clearly, Luo He had confidence in himself.

"Brother Luo He, you must not be careless," Moli Meng warned. "Such a vast fortune could attract some terrifying powerhouses from other places to come to Huyang City to deal with you."

"Would they believe it?" Luo Feng asked.

"There may be some who do. Anyone who dares to make a move will have some sort of reliance," Moli Meng said.

Luo Feng nodded. "Brother Moli, thanks."

Deep inside, Luo Feng was quite looking forward to having some powerful beings show up; he could become even wealthier.
