Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin Chapter 47: Chapter 44: The Passage of Time
"My complete intelligence report is being sold for 5,000 Cosmic Sand at the Fla Wind Pavilion?" Luo Feng was very surprised.
Moli ng said, "Through causality determination by the Fla Wind Pavilion, it was confird that tonight, a suprely powerful eternal true god, 'Ying Cang,' died within your cave mansion, Lord Luo He."
"The assassin tonight was called Ying Cang?" Luo Feng muttered to himself in a low voice, he genuinely didn't recognize the na. After all, since he had entered the cycle and ca to the Land of Origin, the only large city he had lived in was Huyang City.
Luo Feng only purchased so basic intelligence about the vast endless world outside of Huyang City, so naturally, he didn't recognize Ying Cang.
"This is the intelligence on Ying Cang." Moli ng sent a detailed intelligence report through the transmission token.
Upon reading it, Luo Feng understood that Ying Cang was on par in strength with Moli Xiao and Xue Yun, but most importantly… his survival skills were extrely strong. He had managed to survive despite being hunted by an elite squad dispatched by the Primal Chaos Overlord.
"To think that killing an assassin would cause the price of my intelligence to skyrocket," Luo Feng shook his head and sighed, "If I'd known he was Ying Cang, I'd have taken the bounty on him from the Fla Wind Association's Dark Hall, what a pity to miss out on a fortune."
Luo Feng generally only looked at the bounties within Huyang City.
Bounties from other cities? There were countless.
At the sa ti as Ying Cang's death, the Fla Wind Pavilion also revoked the bounty mission for 'Ying Cang,' with the original reward being deducted by ten percent, and the rest returned.
"It's rely so bounty, insignificant for Lord Luo He," said Commander Moli Xiao.
The Lord of Huyang City also said, "As a frontier tropolis, Huyang City is the front line of conflict with the Shi Kingdom's forces. Commander Moli Xiao and I are also under great pressure, and we need to focus on dealing with the forces of the Shi Kingdom. If Lord Luo He is willing to help, he could easily earn a large sum of bounty."
"The three of you may leave now," Luo Feng said, not wishing to speak with them any longer.
"We won't disturb you any further," the Lord of Huyang City, Moli Xiao, and Moli ng all stood up.
Soon, the three of them took their leave.
As the gate of the cave mansion closed, Moyu Qingyan watched with a trembling heart, "The Lord of Huyang City and the Commander ca together, and the master didn't even go out to greet them. When they left, the master didn't see them off either… and not even the Lord of Huyang City seed upset over this."
"In their interactions, the master was clearly more dominant," Moyu Qingyan also grew excited internally, "What great fortune have I, Moyu Qingyan, stumbled upon that I may have the chance to take the master as my ntor! I must work hard and first comprehend the Ten Fundantal Laws!"
The unfathomable strength of the master made Moyu Qingyan all the more determined.
...
"The Five Great Families and the forces of Shi Kingdom, as long as they don't act foolishly, won't provoke ," Luo Feng thought, "I can take this opportunity to focus on my cultivation for a while."
Luo Feng took a few steps and entered the underground hall.
Inside the underground hall, he released the Star Tower. Currently, Morosa was in one of the tower's levels, digesting food, while Luo Feng went to another level.
With a wave of his hand, the many spoils of war appeared in front of Luo Feng.
"This harvest is not considered significant," Luo Feng glanced at it.
"Qianyu Chong, no matter that he was a leader of Huyang Guard, the treasures he left behind were worth only about 200,000 Cosmic Sand in total. iwu Qi left behind treasures worth about 300,000 Cosmic Sand upon his death. Neither of them was particularly wealthy," Luo Feng shook his head.
This was to be expected, as these mbers of the great families, these ordinary eternal true gods, despite their noble status, had big expenses. And how much could they save from the Cosmic Sand allocated to them by their families? In terms of individual wealth, they were not as rich as the Blood Python Association Leader.
"Ying Cang was the wealthy one," Luo Feng looked at the other large quantity of spoils of war, "The most valuable items Ying Cang had on him were two solo-type chanical Stream Secret Treasures, the other possessions he carried with him were average in value. All of his left treasures were worth about 3.5 million Cosmic Sand."
"Compared to his status, it's still a little less, he probably invested his accumulated wealth into his own cultivation," Luo Feng understood.
Bloodline cultivation consud a vast amount of resources.
An enormous amount of resources are poured in hoping for the bloodline to evolve to beco more powerful, and it is an abyss with no end. Many powerful beings invest trendous resources and yet cannot beco a Primal Chaos Overlord.
"The two chanical Flow Secret Treasures, one is the Sword of the World's Core, possessing only one move, 'Condensing Primal Chaos Divine Power,' valued at about 1.5 million Cosmic Sand.
The other is the 'Myriad Realms Escape Command.' It was with this that Ying Cang could move instantaneously within Huyang City, and even under the suppression of my 'Control Primal Chaos,' this treasure still allowed him to outpace ."
Wielding the Sha Wu Wings and using Control Primal Chaos, Luo Feng's power was terrifying; the Blood Python Association Leader was so suppressed he couldn't even put up a fight.
Ying Cang resisted such suppression and still managed to outpace Luo Feng... this was not sothing that could be achieved solely by one's realm, but rather with a powerful escape-class chanical Flow Treasure.
"chanical Stream Secret Treasures are quite helpful to now. But in the future, the help will beco less and less significant," Luo Feng understood this point.
A Perfect Divine Body refined for the second ti, even if it is lower in realm and simple in techniques, can already rival the power of chanical Stream Secret Treasures.
Purple Jade Gen was also effortlessly pierced through with a single strike in front of Luo Feng.
"As my realm advances, the power wielded by my Perfect Divine Body will beco stronger. If I refine it a third ti... there will be a substantial improvent. chanical Flow Secret Treasures will beco even less significant to ," Luo Feng reasoned.
The Perfect Divine Body and willpower are his true reliance.
Luo Feng closed his eyes and began to focus on sensing the Primal Chaos Laws from the 'Primal Chaos Ruins' nearby, tangible as if real, imrsing himself in cultivation.
...
Within Huyang City, the various powers all assud that the Five Great Families would not let things rest and were keen to see the upcoming conflict between the Five Great Families and Lord Luo He.
But the result was... the Five Great Families backed down!
At first, everyone believed that the Five Great Families were secretly hiring experts, which might take so ti to arrive at Huyang City. But as ti passed, everyone began to understand the situation clearly.
As for the news of "Ying Cang being killed by Lord Luo He," after all, it's intelligence worth 5000 Cosmic Sand. Very few forces who had purchased the information would be willing to let it leak out.
Why should other families easily obtain the intelligence that one's own family had paid a great price to acquire?
As ti elapsed, those within Huyang City who knew of "the news that Lord Luo He killed Ying Cang" remained only the few top forces within the city, and these forces naturally grew increasingly wary of Luo Feng.
******
Cultivation ti, like running water, passed by unnoticed for more than two decades.
Huyang City, within a dark and gloomy hall.
The figure in a white robe wearing a red mask stood there, looking at the speck of blood-red fla in midair, the fla emitting an aura of disaster and darkness.
"Marquis," the white-robed figure greeted respectfully.
"Xue Yun, you've been in Huyang City for quite so ti now," the voice ca from the blood-red fla, "Yet to this day, you've not accomplished the task I gave you."
Divine Monarch Xue Yun replied with utmost respect, "Marquis, I dare not slack off, and I've tried every possible thod to track down the complete Formation Diagram of 'Huyang City.' But the Huyang City Formation has been so extensively modified and supplented over generations that it has beco incredibly complex. The Array Masters who personally repaired it...
only know a small area of the Formation they were responsible for. It's impossible to understand the entire grand formation."
"I only want results," the blood-red fla replied coldly, "I will give you one last era to obtain the complete Formation Map of Huyang City. I will send two experts to assist you. If you are still unable to do so within an era, you may as well co back! I will make other arrangents for the matter of Huyang City."
Divine Monarch Xue Yun was taken aback.
If he could not succeed within an era, would the affairs of Huyang City no longer be his responsibility?
As the leader of the Shi Kingdom's forces within Huyang City, although it was quite dangerous, the Shi Kingdom would continuously provide him with resources. Many of these resources ended up in Divine Monarch Xue Yun's own hands.
Divine Monarch Xue Yun, with a desire to beco a Primal Chaos Overlord, naturally needed a vast amount of resources.
If he were to be recalled, coupled with the failure of the mission, the resources he would receive in the future would be greatly reduced.
"Marquis, within an era, I will spare no effort to seize the complete Formation Diagram of Huyang City," Divine Monarch Xue Yun said respectfully.
"I've arranged your assistants, and you haven't been shorted of resources. I hope that this ti... you won't disappoint again!" The blood-red fla's voice was ice-cold, and it gradually extinguished.
Only then did the exceedingly respectful Divine Monarch Xue Yun relax.
Even as powerful as he was, he dared not show the slightest disrespect before the Marquis, an ancient Primal Chaos Overlord who has journeyed through the long years. After all, even the most powerful eternal true gods would be effortlessly crushed by the Marquis.
"The Marquis is losing patience," Divine Monarch Xue Yun pondered, "He's so urgent, it seems the Marquis must have so significant action planned."
"I wonder how strong the two assistants sent by the Marquis will be." Divine Monarch Xue Yun was patient, planning to wait for the arrival of the two formidable assistants before deciding on the plan to capture the Formation Diagram of Huyang City, "Within an era, even if I cannot get the complete Formation Diagram of Huyang City, I must earn sufficient rit points.
Otherwise, the Marquis will not spare !"
Having taken a large amount of resources, naturally, corresponding rits were expected.
...
Snowflakes were swirling down, the world blanketed in white.
The snow of Huyang City was extrely cold, each snowflake like a glittering gem.
Luo Feng sat on the peak of his cave mansion, stretching out his hand to catch the falling snowflakes, each snowflake's structure extrely intricate, like a Formation Diagram.
"Comprehending the laws is also getting slower," Luo Feng thought, "I've been in the Land of Origin for twenty-seven eras already. I made rapid progress in the early stage, but now my advancent is slowing down."
This was normal, as his realm could be considered at the pinnacle level of an eternal true god.
To thoroughly integrate a multitude of scattered insights, and to comprehend the complete 'Primal Chaos Laws,' was certainly not an easy task.
"Hm?" Luo Feng looked down the mountain, seeing his servant 'Moyu Qingyan' also deep in contemplation.
"Is comprehending the laws so difficult for you? You still haven't grasped the Ten Fundantal Laws," Morosa said while gnawing on at, shaking his head.
Moyu Qingyan couldn't help saying, "Lord Luo Sa, it took just over two decades to grasp eight of the Basic Laws, which is already quite fast. My father even says that my comprehension speed is very quick."
"Too slow! With my teaching, not having comprehended the Ten Fundantal Laws by now ans you're dull," Morosa said disdainfully, "Comprehending the laws is a very simple matter. You need to understand that these laws don't exist in isolation; they are interconnected."
"It's due to the combination of different laws that all things operate," Morosa explained, "I've said it before, you need to consider their interconnections to think about their essence."
"I don't understand," Moyu Qingyan shook his head.
"Alas, both the eldest and third of the Moyu family have beco true gods of void space, only leaving you as the lone True God. Put so effort into it; your weakness is embarrassing, even to !" Morosa shook his head, "Both your master and I progressed much faster when we were cultivating!"
Moyu Qingyan kept quiet, as he still wanted Morosa's guidance and dared not talk back, and he had to think of ways to appease him.
Whoosh!
Luo Feng landed beside them.
"Master," Morosa and Moyu Qingyan imdiately stood up.
"Co with on a trip," Luo Feng instructed.
