Swallowed Star 2: Origin Continent

Chapter 118: He Is Not at the Peak of Chaos!

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

The Qianxing Tower was merely a relatively ordinary business in the Chu Capital, but today, it was experiencing the most extraordinary day since its establishment! Two First-Class Marquises and three Chaos Realm guest retainers were present inside the Qianxing Tower.

“The Heavenly Fate of that Sage Luo He is shrouded, and the threads of causality are concealed. It’s difficult to probe too much information about him,” the old woman beside Marquis Chu Ji said. “His rise has been swift, and he has few friends and family. He might be the reincarnation of some old fellow. When we take action later, we must give it our all.”

“One must not be careless with any Chaos Realm peak expert,” said the elder with golden rings encircling his left arm.

The man in the green robe sneered, “The peak of the Chaos Realm… in terms of realm, it has already touched the threshold of a Divine King. But this Luo He… specializes in physical body cultivation, and his techniques are rather clumsy, making him easier to deal with.”

Paths like the Origin Path of Time, the Origin Path of Space, the Origin Path of Causality, and so on…

Many paths, if they could reach the peak of the Chaos Realm, would be mysterious and unpredictable, making it very difficult to capture or kill them. Just like how Luo Feng had defeated Marquis Liu Yin before but couldn’t leave him behind.

However, for those who specialized in physical body cultivation, while their bodies were indeed hard to obliterate, they usually had weaknesses in other areas.

“No matter what opponent, one must give their all,” said Marquis Chu Ji.

“A strong physical body is better; it allows for a more satisfying battle!” The black-haired, ugly Marquis Chu Yuan said ferociously, “Later, I’ll smash him with a thousand rods, turning him into a pile of meat! Let’s see how strong his body is!”

The other four Chaos Realm peak experts were already accustomed to Marquis Chu Yuan’s temperament.

In the royal family of the Ancient Flame Kingdom, such rampant madness was rare. But in the royal family of the Ancient Thunder Kingdom, most of the royal family experts were like this; those who could remain calm and rational were the minority.

“He’s here,” the old woman said, looking into the distance, her heart inexplicably thumping with anxiety. She had comprehended the Origin Path of Causality, yet she always felt that the Heavenly Fate of this Luo He was too vague, and she could glean very little.

Whoosh!

A black-clad man emerged from the void, a pair of dark golden horns on his forehead, his face carrying a trace of coldness. As soon as he appeared, he looked towards the Qianxing Tower, his gaze locking onto the two First-Class Marquises and the three Chaos Realm guest retainers.

“Marquis Chu Yuan, Marquis Chu Ji, and the three guest retainers,” Luo Feng looked at them, “You all have your status, yet you dare to make a move on the Eternal True God by my side.”

“Guest Retainer Luo He has been secluded in his abode, not stepping out. We merely used a little trick to invite Guest Retainer Luo He out,” Marquis Chu Ji said with a hearty smile, “Surely, Guest Retainer Luo He is aware of some of the conflicts between us and Marquis Di Chu Yu.”

“Since I arrived in the Chu Capital, I have been in seclusion and am not too clear about the detailed conflicts between the First-Class Marquises,” Luo Feng replied.

Marquis Chu Ji and the others were a bit surprised.

As a guest retainer invited by Marquis Di Chu Yu, he didn’t know about the conflicts between Marquis Di Chu Yu and them?

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know,” Marquis Chu Ji continued, “We offer you two choices: one, stay away from Marquis Di Chu Yu, and from now on, stop assisting him. The second is to continue helping him, making you our enemy. Two paths… choose one!”

Choosing a guest retainer required great caution; Marquis Di Chu Yu was wary of picking a traitor, preferring to choose someone trustworthy and with enough potential to slowly nurture.

When he first invited Luo Feng, Marquis Di Chu Yu thought Luo Feng was an Eternal True God with an Infinite Divine Body, hoping that they could support each other and grow together. Marquis Di Chu Yu had already prepared himself to be patient and endure in the early stages.

But later, Luo Feng’s strength exceeded his expectations.

“Choose between two paths?” Luo Feng looked at them, half-smiling, “You think you’re worthy of making me choose?”

Marquis Chu Yuan, Marquis Chu Ji, and the three guest retainers immediately changed their expressions.

“Worthy or not?” Marquis Chu Ji’s eyes flashed with anger, and the already hot-tempered Marquis Chu Yuan was even more enraged, with lightning surging all over his body.

“Hmph.”

The man in the green robe snorted coldly, and the illusory avatar of Yuanzu, which had been bound and unable to move on the side, instantly disintegrated. At the same time, the sky around the Qianxing Tower darkened ominously.

The old woman glanced at Luo Feng, “Buzz~~~” An inaudible psychic attack enveloped Luo Feng, obscuring his mind and dulling his senses.

But with Luo Feng having already reached the second level of the Divine King realm in terms of mental will, and possessing the Lieu Yuan Technique, he was entirely unaffected by such a feeble attempt at obfuscation.

“Causal concealment?” Luo Feng noticed the opponent’s move. The mental will of his opponent had barely touched the threshold of the Divine King realm, and the psychic attack was meant to obscure all perception. “So this is the Xu Guest Retainer beside Marquis Chu Ji, skilled in the art of causality, the Origin Path of Causality indeed mysterious and unfathomable.”

The elder with the golden rings on his left arm gazed at Luo Feng, and the rings on his left arm vanished into thin air.

“Hmm?”

Five illusory golden rings appeared out of nowhere, encircling Luo Feng, and instantly tightened, binding his body with the combined might of sealing, restraint, strangulation, and suppression.

“This Luo He couldn’t even evade my golden rings?” The elder sneered upon seeing this.

“His true body is doomed,” seeing the five golden rings trap Luo Feng, the man in the green robe smiled, and a massive array vaguely appeared in the sky. As the array operated, countless chains of the heavens descended, enveloping Luo Feng.

Marquis Chu Ji smiled faintly; victory was assured.

The moment Luo He was bound by the golden rings, the outcome was sealed.

“Is this your method?” Luo Feng’s voice suddenly sounded. He exerted a bit of force, and the foundational elements of his five transformation techniques had already turned into ‘Yin-Yang Particle Form,’ greatly enhancing his power.

Among Luo Feng’s five transformation techniques, four were for close combat.

In the Galaxy Transformation Technique, when performing the Chaos Realm blade techniques, Luo Feng could now simultaneously unleash twenty-three thousand galaxy blade lights.

And close combat was purely a burst of strength, with minimal mental burden. Luo Feng could simultaneously unleash the power of ‘over a hundred billion units’ of transformation techniques. The strength was simply beyond imagination.

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!!!!!”

With a single exertion, the five golden rings shattered one after another!

The countless chains of the heavens disintegrated the moment they touched Luo Feng’s clothing.

This scene left the two First-Class Marquises and three Chaos Realm guest retainers momentarily stunned!

“My five golden rings… shattered?” The elder couldn’t believe what he was seeing, “This is a secret treasure, and it shattered?”

He could accept if the rings were merely expanded.

But to shatter instantly?

The chains of the heavens, condensed by the great array controlled by the man in the green robe, disintegrated the moment they touched Luo Feng’s clothing. He could clearly sense… the inconceivable power when the chains he controlled touched Luo Feng’s clothing.

Touch it, and it’s annihilated!

“Flee! He’s not at the peak of the Chaos Realm, he’s transcended beyond the Chaos Realm!” The man in the green robe transmitted a message while attempting to flee.

“Boom~~~”

Centered on the Qianxing Tower, endless silver light emerged, forming a massive silver cage that completely enveloped the entire Qianxing Tower.

“Trying to escape?” Luo Feng took a step forward, his figure traversing the void, appearing beside the man in the green robe. His five fingers grasped the man’s body, and in an instant, the area several feet around the man turned into chaos, with all layers of space disintegrating, and the terrifying power impacting the world membrane.

With a single strike, the body of Sage Tianyu was utterly annihilated, leaving no room for resistance.

First, the five golden rings shattered, then the chains of the heavens disintegrated, and now, Sage Tianyu couldn’t withstand even a single blow. This series of events had a profound impact on Marquis Chu Ji and the others. Although Sage Tianyu’s divine body wasn’t particularly strong, as a cultivator of the Origin Path of the World, his strength was on par with that of Marquis Liu Yin, with strong life-saving abilities. Yet, before Luo Feng, he was pitifully fragile.

“Boom!” “Boom!”

Luo Feng’s arms suddenly expanded, like heavenly pillars, his hands simultaneously reaching out to grab the elder and the old woman.

Luo Feng naturally had detailed information on the two First-Class Marquises and the three Chaos Realm guest retainers. In fact, the three Chaos Realm guest retainers had the strongest escape abilities! So Luo

Feng first dealt with Sage Tianyu, who controlled the heavens, then turned to the other two guest retainers.

As for Marquis Chu Ji and Marquis Chu Yuan? Though they were strong, their escape abilities were weak.

“Buzz.”

Luo Feng’s hands pierced through the void, appearing out of nowhere in front of the two Chaos Realm guest retainers.

“Marquis, we must go,” the old woman grabbed Marquis Chu Ji, and they vanished in an instant.

The elder’s body dispersed, evading Luo Feng’s grasp. When his body reappeared in the distance, he looked towards the galaxy cage in shock and anger, “This cage has severed the space, isolating the inside from the outside.”

Luo Feng’s silver light cage had severed all layers of space, leaving only the world membrane intact.

“Whoosh.”

The old woman had already fled with Marquis Chu Ji to the skies above the distant Marquis Residence, finally relaxing as she looked back towards the Qianxing Tower.

“Marquis, I can now barely take one Chaos Realm lifeform with me into the Causal Escape Technique,” the old woman said, “I could only bring the Marquis out.”

The Causal Escape Technique, where one merges into the threads of causality to escape, was an extremely powerful escape technique that the old woman had developed after comprehending the Origin Path of Causality, based on the heritage she received from the Ancient Flame Kingdom.

This escape technique becomes increasingly difficult when carrying another lifeform along the threads of causality.

“Thanks to Guest Retainer Xu, if not for her, I wouldn’t have escaped,” Marquis Chu Ji said with a mix of anger and fear as he looked far into the distance, his gaze penetrating the spatial barriers to glimpse the galaxy cage, “That cage can isolate the inside from the outside; escaping is extremely difficult.”

“Guest Retainer Xu, is there any way to save Marquis Chu Yuan and the others?” Marquis Chu Ji asked.

“No way.”

The old woman shook her head, “That Luo He’s every move is not only extremely fast but even under the control of the heavens by Sage Tianyu, he could still traverse the void! If I were to use the Causal Escape Technique to infiltrate, the moment I appeared, I would likely fall prey! My divine body is not as strong as that of Brother Tianyu. If I get hit, this true body is doomed.”

“He should be a Chaos Realm transcendental who specializes in the physical body. Just by relying on his physical body, he can compete with Divine Kings; he’s not someone we can provoke.” The old woman was also somewhat frightened.

Marquis Chu Ji’s face darkened, “I never expected that only the two of us would escape this time.”

……

As a First-Class Marquis, Marquis Di Chu Yu naturally had excellent intelligence within the Chu Capital. He was the first to receive news of the battle at the Qianxing Tower.

“What? Marquis Chu Yuan, Marquis Chu Ji, and the others are dealing with Brother Luo He?” Marquis Di Chu Yu was alarmed, “Didn’t I warn Brother Luo He to be careful? How did he still fall into their ambush?”
