Chapter 377: Lord Luo Feng |
Luo Feng had created the Primordial Life-and-Death Path. Although his lifeform had not yet transformed, the “Path” was also a part of his life—he was already completely different from before! Relying on his own “Path,” Luo Feng was able to sense a fluctuation of space-time approaching.
That fluctuation of space-time made him feel a sense of threat.
In the past, when facing Starlight Primordial Lord, Luo Feng could not even perceive the other party’s aura. But now, he could clearly sense the threat from the other side—both had already become existences of the same level.
“Luo Feng, you should know that over the past period of time, more than one-sixth of our Cultivator Faction’s territory has fallen! Massive numbers of Source Worlds and ordinary worlds have been breached, and countless cultivator lives have been annihilated!” Starlight Primordial Lord’s voice continued, “Every one of us Primordial Lords wants the Innate Primordial Lifeform Faction to pay a sufficient price.”
More than one-sixth of the territory—how many lives had perished? Even the Primordial Lords could not count them!
“Our seven Primordial Lords’ main combat clones are currently battling seventy-three Primordial Ancestors!” Starlight Primordial Lord transmitted, “Right now, the outside world does not yet know of the birth of an eighth Primordial Lord.”
“You must keep it secret! All clones outside the Origin Land must not break through. Once they do, it is easy for some Primordial Ancestors of the Innate Primordial Lifeform Faction to detect it. The Origin Land is special—breaking through here will not be discovered.” Starlight Primordial Lord said.
As the final stronghold of the Cultivator Faction, the Origin Land had been painstakingly arranged by the Primordial Lords to block all forms of surveillance.
“I understand. I will keep it secret,” Luo Feng said.
Luo Feng very much wanted to give those Primordial Ancestors a ruthless strike!
“Break through first. We’ll discuss the details afterward.” Starlight Primordial Lord stopped disturbing him.
……
Inside the Cave Dwelling Quiet Chamber, all of Luo Feng’s clones dissipated. Vast amounts of energy began to gather under the control of his mental consciousness, while simultaneously devouring the endless energy supplied by the chamber.
The Origin Land provided incomparably vast energy! In a single breath, it could supply enough energy for a “Complete Stage World-level Primordial Lifeform.”
At this moment, Luo Feng devoured it freely. More than ninety percent of the Origin Land’s energy was prioritized for him, allowing him to absorb at will.
In a short while, deep cyan origins floated within the cave dwelling—countless in number, totaling 108 million.
The 108 million origins formed something like a stellar formation, interconnected as one!
This was also the core of Luo Feng’s physical body.
“Rumble—”
The power of the Origin Land surged in like a tangible torrent, pouring into the 108 million origins.
It flowed endlessly! The 108 million origins seemed bottomless, continuously absorbing.
At the same time, using these countless origins as the core, innumerable veins began to extend outward—some deep cyan veins spread and grew into flesh and blood, some golden veins extended and fused into every part of the body, and some blood-colored veins spread…
A massive black-robed, black-haired man’s body was taking shape.
Within this man’s skin, fascia, bones, and flesh, countless “blood-colored veins” permeated throughout. These blood-colored veins were Luo Feng’s achievements in the Star Tower’s Blood Scales. The influence of the Star Tower’s Blood Scales on him ran extremely deep!
Luo Feng also understood that merely having powerful protective scales on the surface was of little significance. At the level of a Primordial Lord, attacks did not distinguish between internal and external—internal weakness would become a fatal flaw.
Thus, from the Star Tower Blood Scales, Luo Feng comprehended many profound mysteries and perfectly integrated them with his own Physical Body System, creating these blood-colored veins. In truth, these blood-colored veins were another form of “Blood Scales,” except they covered every part of the body. This system also made Luo Feng’s blood appear red.
According to the Primordial Life-and-Death Path, Luo Feng’s blood should have been deep cyan.
It was precisely because of the additional blood-colored vein system that the color of his blood, bones, and flesh had changed.
“My skin and fascia probably only have one-tenth the defensive strength of the Star Tower Blood Scales—not truly indestructible.”
“But every part of my body has this same level of toughness.”
“My entire body has no weak points!”
This massive body continued to expand.
“Still within the range my Mental Consciousness System can control—expand, expand, expand, keep expanding.” Luo Feng absorbed energy to his heart’s content, converting it into a vast physical body.
The Cave Dwelling Quiet Chamber was too small—Luo Feng could not even stand and could only sit cross-legged.
Even sitting cross-legged, he nearly filled the entire space-time of the chamber.
He could only compress his form, yet in reality, his physical body continued to grow.
……
In the Origin Land, the seven Primordial Lords continuously observed Luo Feng’s breakthrough.
“He’s still absorbing energy at the highest limit,” Lord Jin could not help but say. “The energy his body has absorbed has already surpassed mine.”
“His Primordial Life-and-Death Path is centered on life,” Lord Yuan said with a smile. “It is foreseeable that his body will far exceed ours. Only Wulan can compare to him.”
“Comparable to Wulan?” Lord Minghuang shook his head slightly. “That body is far too large.”
Lord Wulan’s body was nearly the size of a normal Source World!
A normal Source World was mostly void inside, but Lord Wulan’s body was a supermassive material form! The material of his body was at the Primordial Lord level—extremely tough and nearly indestructible, far beyond soil or rock within a Source World.
With such a body, even in the Infinite Source Space, Lord Wulan might be injured—but even if more than seventy Primordial Ancestors besieged him, they would only restrain him, unwilling to waste too much effort.
In the Infinite Source Space, there were several beings with terrifying defensive abilities.
Some even surpassed Lord Wulan—for example, the Primordial Ancestor-level existence “Initial,” an absolutely spherical creature representing the pinnacle of the “Path of Defense” in the Infinite Source Space.
Of course, both Lord Wulan and the Primordial Ancestor “Initial” shared a common weakness—their ability to kill enemies was relatively weaker. Their methods were clumsy among those of the same level, and many attacks could not even touch their opponents.
“He’s already absorbed more energy than me,” Lord Naigu also spoke.
“He’s reached one-tenth of mine,” Lord Wulan observed from afar.
Among the seven Primordial Lords, Naigu ranked second in body energy, yet he only had one-tenth of Wulan’s.
As the seven Primordial Lords watched, Luo Feng continued to absorb energy like a bottomless abyss.
“He’s reached fifty percent of mine,” Wulan said in surprise.
“He’s reached eighty percent of Wulan’s!” Jin exclaimed. “How can he absorb so much energy?”
Yuan watched from afar and could not help but say, “He’s already caught up to Wulan… and he’s still absorbing?”
“More than Wulan—and quite a bit more,” Starlight Primordial Lord said.
Lord Minghuang laughed. “Looks like we’ve gained another one who can’t be killed.”
Previously, among the seven, only Wulan dared claim he could withstand attacks indefinitely. Now, judging from Luo Feng’s energy absorption, he too possessed extremely strong survivability.
“The stronger his survivability, the weaker his killing ability will be,” Lord Momán frowned.
The other Primordial Lords all nodded.
All of them had grasped Paths of the highest level of power—they were existences of the same tier, with only slight differences.
Each Primordial Lord had their own strengths!
Wulan was terrifyingly strong in defense.
Jin and Momán were unbelievably strong in killing power.
Yuan excelled in formations! He could amplify the combined strength of the seven Primordial Lords by several times, making him the most crucial figure in large-scale warfare.
“His Path leans toward life,” Yuan said. “The life path does have some killing methods, but ultimately they are somewhat inferior.”
“Luo Feng walks the path of Breaking All Techniques with Strength,” Starlight Primordial Lord smiled. “He may be immature now, but in the future, he will make up for this weakness.”
The Primordial Lords present all agreed.
Breaking All Techniques with Strength indeed had greater potential.
“After he completes his breakthrough, we’ll understand his methods in detail and decide how to coordinate,” Yuan said.
“He’s absorbed far too much energy,” Jin shook his head. Among the Primordial Lords, his body energy was near the bottom—only slightly above Momán.
“He’s finally stopped… more than three times mine?” Even Wulan was astonished.
“With this much energy, it would be extremely difficult for enemies to exhaust him,” Momán sighed. “If only I had one-tenth of his energy.”
As the Primordial Lord with the least energy, Momán had only one-thirtieth of Wulan’s—about one percent of Luo Feng’s.
From another perspective, however, his killing methods were terrifying—those Primordial Ancestors could not escape his techniques.
……
Inside the Cave Dwelling Quiet Chamber.
A black-robed, black-haired man returned to normal size. Centered on him, a terrifying domain naturally spread outward.
Just like how the Source World Origin had its system of Supreme Laws, Luo Feng’s body—now even more terrifying than a Source World Origin—naturally affected the surroundings with its “life-and-death operational system.” Within the vast range covered by a single main combat clone, even World-level Primordial Lifeforms would perish under this system.
“Finally full.” Luo Feng felt a sense of satisfaction as the 108 million origins within his body reached full capacity.
Although his physical body was enormous, it had long since reached its limit of growth.
It was only because the 108 million origins could contain such vast energy that he was able to absorb so much.
“Although my body is huge, the energy contained within the 108 million origins is ten times that of the body itself,” Luo Feng easily determined.
“If I fully reveal my physical body, it should be about one-third the size of my home Source World,” Luo Feng judged.
A body one-third the size of a Source World—every part possessing one-tenth the defensive strength of the Star Tower Blood Scales—entirely composed of such flesh. Its power was unimaginable; every movement carried boundless might.
“I’ve completely broken through.”
With the full evolution of his lifeform, he now truly wielded the might of a Primordial Lord.
Luo Feng felt that with his current strength, a mere breath could reduce World-level Primordial Lifeforms to ashes.
“Luo Feng, here are the Paths of us seven Primordial Lords, along with all the intelligence we’ve gathered on Primordial Ancestor-level existences in the Infinite Source Space. Study them, then quickly create battle techniques suited to yourself,” Starlight Primordial Lord’s voice sounded.
At the same time, a stream of information was transmitted.
With a single thought, Luo Feng received it.
Having just become a Primordial Lord, he would soon head to the battlefield—one against more than seventy Primordial Ancestors. Even Luo Feng felt pressure.
