Swallowed Star 2: Origin Continent

Lord of Yuanxiu Mansion watched from a distance. He could only see a massive dark world, making it difficult to discern what was happening inside.

“Poof.”

Suddenly, a sword light pierced through the membrane wall of the dark world and swiftly fled out.

Lord of Yuanxiu Mansion was somewhat surprised to see this scene. “Just after the first exchange, Great Sage Biyun is already fleeing?”

Among the Chaos Realm Transcendents on the Origin Continent, even in one-on-one battles, those who could force Great Sage Biyun to flee were very few. Not to mention, this time, she had Great Sage Yansu and the City Lord of Arid Wind assisting her.

“Escaped.” Only after fleeing to a distant place did Great Sage Biyun finally breathe a sigh of relief, glancing at Lord of Yuanxiu Mansion.

“Great Sage Biyun,” Lord of Yuanxiu Mansion greeted politely. In terms of individual strength and background, Great Sage Biyun was far superior to him.

“Brother Yuanxiu, you’re truly wise,” Great Sage Biyun said. “Had you gotten involved, this true body of yours would likely have been lost.”

Lord of Yuanxiu Mansion was shocked. “Great Sage Biyun, what on earth happened inside that dark world? Where are Great Sage Yansu and the City Lord of Arid Wind?”

Great Sage Biyun shook her head before saying, “That Blood Spirit Gold Pearl has nothing to do with us anymore.”

After speaking, she disappeared into the distance.

Lord of Yuanxiu Mansion was secretly shocked. From Great Sage Biyun’s reaction, he could already infer part of what had happened.

“It seems to be one-sided! Three against one, yet they were swept away.” Lord of Yuanxiu Mansion roughly guessed the result and decided not to wait any longer. “The Blood Spirit Gold Pearl mission is over for us.”

Silently, he too left.

…

In the vast dark world, only Luo Feng and the City Lord of Arid Wind remained.

“The Ancient Thunder Kingdom and the Ancient Flame Kingdom are evenly matched, and the entire royal family of the Ancient Thunder Kingdom… primarily cultivates the Primordial Bloodline,” Luo Feng looked at the massive figure of the City Lord of Arid Wind.

The royal family of the Ancient Flame Kingdom also had those who cultivated the Primordial Bloodline. However, in the Ancient Flame Kingdom, the threshold was higher. Normally, one had to become a Divine King and undergo numerous evaluations before embarking on the path of the Primordial Bloodline.

According to the intelligence Luo Feng had, among the thirteen emperors of the Ancient Flame Kingdom, several of them cultivated the Primordial Bloodline. This demonstrated the allure of the Primordial Bloodline faction.

Someone like the City Lord of Arid Wind was just beginning to enter the Primordial Bloodline system, the weakest level. As for Marquis Chu Yuan, whom Luo Feng had once turned into liquid, he didn’t even count as an entry-level cultivator.

“Slash.” Luo Feng looked at the City Lord of Arid Wind. With a single thought, three hundred thousand black rivers transformed into streaks of black blade light, densely packed, all performing Blade River Slash.

Boom!

Wherever the endless black blade light passed, everything was destroyed. Even the membrane wall of the Fettered World showed numerous thin cracks. This terrifying power completely struck the City Lord of Arid Wind, who was unable to evade any of it.

“Sss~~”

Countless wounds appeared on the body of the City Lord of Arid Wind, as though he had been cut by a thousand blades. His body was covered in cyan blood.

But as the power of the blade light passed, the countless wounds on the City Lord of Arid Wind’s body naturally healed.

“You managed to break my skin and draw blood,” the City Lord of Arid Wind laughed heartily. “Luo He, I admit your power is formidable, but unfortunately, I haven’t lost a single drop of divine power.” ℞ÄNòBĚꞨ

Luo Feng also noticed this.

When a body was cultivated to the extent of the City Lord of Arid Wind, surface wounds were insignificant. Only by completely annihilating parts of the flesh could divine power reserves be depleted.

“I advise you not to waste your efforts,” the City Lord of Arid Wind said confidently. Although he was enveloped in the endless black river and couldn’t resist, he was constantly getting closer to Luo Feng.

“I’ll give it a try.” Luo Feng gazed at the City Lord of Arid Wind.

The thirty thousand black blade lights used for the long-range ‘Blade River Slash’ were infused with profound mysteries, extremely sharp, even tearing slight cracks in the Fettered World’s membrane.

However, in close combat, Luo Feng could mobilize nearly ten billion black rivers, relying purely on brute force!

“Merge.”

With a single thought, Luo Feng withdrew the endless black rivers into his body, even reclaiming most of the black rivers that had merged into the dark world, leaving only ‘one billion black rivers’ to maintain the dark world.

The more black rivers integrated into the dark world, the stronger it became. One billion black rivers were already enough to imprison most Chaos Realm Transcendents.

“Hmm?” The City Lord of Arid Wind looked around at the black rivers rapidly surging towards Luo Feng. He was also being drawn closer, surrounded by the currents.

Suddenly, Luo Feng, whose body had quickly enlarged, extended his hand and grabbed the neck of the approaching City Lord of Arid Wind.

At this moment, Luo Feng possessed the strength of nearly nine billion black rivers.

“Break!” The City Lord of Arid Wind struggled, even swinging his arms, but Luo Feng’s arm remained immovable, gripping the City Lord’s neck tightly.

“Shatter.”

Luo Feng grasped the City Lord of Arid Wind’s neck with his left hand while the five fingers of his right hand stabbed directly into the City Lord’s body.

Poof—

Luo Feng felt the City Lord of Arid Wind’s body was incredibly resilient. Much of his strength was naturally neutralized by the skin, but in the end, Luo Feng’s fingers still forcefully pierced into his flesh. The flesh layer was even more resistant, as if countless ropes were entangled, trying to resist Luo Feng. Inside, there was also a layer of bone armor. The bone armor was densely packed, and Luo Feng’s five fingers were like penetrating a treasure weapon, forcibly piercing through part of the bone armor before stopping.

Luo Feng’s arm had plunged halfway into the City Lord of Arid Wind’s body but could no longer advance.

“So tough.” Luo Feng was shocked.

“He, he…” The City Lord of Arid Wind was equally astonished. To be pierced halfway into his body with bare hands? His body, strengthened by the Primordial Bloodline, was supposed to be extremely formidable.

Poof! Boom! Tear!

Luo Feng, with one hand gripping the City Lord of Arid Wind’s neck, used his other hand as a blade, claw, and fist, unleashing the full power of nearly nine billion black rivers, tearing apart the City Lord’s body again and again.

“Luo He, how did you cultivate your body? I’m sure you haven’t trained in the Primordial Bloodline, yet your body is even stronger than mine!” The City Lord of Arid Wind, while taking the blows, still had the leisure to ask questions.

“Don’t waste your energy. Although it seems like I’m getting injured repeatedly, I haven’t used up a single drop of divine power,” the City Lord of Arid Wind continued while being beaten. “I can’t defeat you, but the vitality of the Primordial Bloodline is beyond your imagination.”

Luo Feng paused and nodded. “Indeed, your body is incredibly resilient.”

With that, a giant Blood Shadow Knife appeared out of thin air in Luo Feng’s right hand.

“A knife?” The City Lord of Arid Wind still didn’t care.

“Slash!”

Luo Feng grabbed the neck of the City Lord of Arid Wind with his left hand and casually threw him aside. At the same time, his right hand had already swung his blade!

At this moment, the power of nearly ninety billion black rivers condensed into one, channeling through the incredibly sharp and heavy Blood Shadow Knife, fiercely striking the waist of the City Lord of Arid Wind.

Thick skin, resilient flesh, bone armor…

This Blood Shadow Knife, which had undergone a complete transformation through Master Emperor Chu’s hand, had the potential of a weapon aimed at the ultimate realm of Divine Kings. Luo Feng’s strength, focused on the blade, was clearly much more terrifying than using his bare hands.

“Slash—” The waist of the City Lord of Arid Wind was completely cut through, and his body was split in two.

“It’s useless, you can’t—what?”

The City Lord of Arid Wind’s eyes widened in shock.

At this moment, black rivers emerged from Luo Feng’s body, rolling and surging as they immediately enveloped the two severed halves of the City Lord of Arid Wind. After being split in two, the strength of each part began to decrease.

“Slash!” “Slash!” “Slash!” “Slash!” “Slash!” “Slash!”

Luo Feng continuously slashed with the Blood Shadow Knife, repeatedly cutting into the split body of the City Lord of Arid Wind. In just the blink of an eye, the City Lord of Arid Wind had been chopped into dozens of pieces of flesh, each piece condensed into a meat lump.

Even though there were dozens of meat lumps, they were still resilient and filled with endless vitality.

“Even if I become meat lumps, or even turn into pulp or fragments… I still won’t die, hahaha…” The divine power of the dozens of meat lumps surged, and they still emitted sound.

The dozens of massive meat lumps continued to struggle, but all were wrapped tightly by the black rivers.

“Chopped into this state, yet it feels like his strength hasn’t diminished much?” Luo Feng observed the meat lumps. Although they had been split into dozens of pieces, the resistance of each part was greatly weakened, feeling only as strong as that of a peak Chaos Realm being.

“You can chop apart my complete body, I admire that, but you cannot kill me. Even if you were several times stronger, you couldn’t kill me,” the voice of the City Lord of Arid Wind echoed around them.

“The vitality of the Primordial Bloodline is indeed strong,” Luo Feng nodded in acknowledgment.

“Luo He, you can’t suppress me forever, can you? Constantly dividing your attention to suppress me will affect your cultivation,” said the City Lord of Arid Wind.

Cultivation required undistracted focus and complete concentration.

Suppressing the City Lord of Arid Wind with the black rivers indeed required Luo Feng to split part of his attention, which would affect his cultivation.

“So, you should release me,” the City Lord of Arid Wind urged. “It was my fault for offending you this time. Release me, and I will give you a hundred billion Cosmos Sand as compensation. How about that?”

“Release you?” Luo Feng smiled. “Your true body is quite valuable.”

Even if the City Lord of Arid Wind chose to destroy this body, the weapons and treasures carried by his true body were still of great value.

Moreover, Luo Feng knew very well that a true body with the Primordial Bloodline was extremely important. Destroying it and cultivating another one? That would be very troublesome and come at a great cost.

“Are you going to keep suppressing me?” The City Lord of Arid Wind began to struggle. The dozens of pieces of his flesh continued to thrash about with terrifying force, but Luo Feng immediately suppressed them with the black rivers. “You’re really going to divide your attention and suppress me indefinitely? How will you cultivate?”

“Collect.”

Luo Feng wrapped each of the meat lumps with the black rivers and sent them into the Star Tower.

In one of the spaces within the Star Tower, this layer of space was naturally divided into over a thousand small spaces. Luo Feng threw the dozens of meat lumps into these thousands of small spaces.

“Suppress.” The Star Tower itself had the ability to suppress and seal.

“Hmm?”

The dozens of meat lumps twisted, taking on the form of multiple versions of the City Lord of Arid Wind.

The dozens of City Lords of Arid Wind were astonished, looking around. Even though they could see each other through the distance between the small spaces, they were unable to come closer.

“Open!” The dozens of City Lords of Arid Wind frantically attacked the small spaces, but it was clear they couldn’t shake them at all.

The stability of the Star Tower was such that not even Luo Feng at full strength could budge it. This level of stability… Luo Feng believed it was beyond what a Divine King First Level palace treasure could achieve. Now that the City Lord of Arid Wind had been divided, his resistance power had only reached the peak of the Chaos level, making it impossible for him to resist.

“Let me out! Let me out!” The dozens of City Lords of Arid Wind were furious, but under the sealing of the small spaces, their voices couldn’t be heard.

“Is it a Divine King-level palace treasure? He actually has a Divine King-level palace treasure?” The City Lord of Arid Wind couldn’t believe it.

Even Great Sage Biyun only had one Divine King-level weapon, the Heaven-Cutting Sword.

A Divine King-level palace treasure, even one at the lowest First Level, was worth far more.

“He’s suppressing me in a Divine King-level palace treasure. He doesn’t need to split his focus to handle me at all. Am I going to be suppressed forever?” The City Lord of Arid Wind realized the severity of his situation. Initially, he thought Luo He wouldn’t be able to keep dividing his attention to suppress him for long and would eventually let him go.

“Should I abandon this body?”

The City Lord of Arid Wind knew very well how much effort it had taken to cultivate this body with the Primordial Bloodline. He didn’t even have a Divine King-level weapon, as most of his resources had been spent on this body.

“Luo He, just tell me, under what conditions will you let me go?” The City Lord of Arid Wind finally gave in. “As long as it’s within my power, I’ll do it.”

“How much treasure can you offer?” Luo Feng’s voice finally sounded.

“I’ll figure something out. I can gather eight hundred billion Cosmos Sand,” the City Lord of Arid Wind replied.

“Eight hundred billion Cosmos Sand?” Luo Feng couldn’t help but comment. “You, a Chaos Realm Transcendent, can only come up with eight hundred billion Cosmos Sand? That’s too poor. I offered over a thousand billion Cosmos Sand just to acquire materials for a perfect chaos-level lifeform.”

The City Lord of Arid Wind felt aggrieved.

Not long ago, he had sold 12 Blood Spirit Gold Pearls to the Two Realms Palace and earned 360 billion Cosmos Sand. If not for that sale, he wouldn’t even have been able to gather eight hundred billion Cosmos Sand.

“Primordial Bloodline cultivation consumes a lot of resources,” the City Lord of Arid Wind explained. “Eight hundred billion Cosmos Sand is everything I have.”

“Then you’re not getting out,” Luo Feng said. He was joking—eight hundred billion Cosmos Sand could only buy the most basic First Level Divine King weapon, and this wouldn’t be enough to redeem the City Lord of Arid Wind’s body.

The City Lord of Arid Wind fell silent.

He had another option. As a member of the royal family of the Ancient Thunder Kingdom, he could ask the royal family for help to redeem him. However, the price they paid would be something he’d have to repay later.

…

Luo Feng stood beside the Blood Spirit Star, sensing the City Lord of Arid Wind imprisoned within the Star Tower.

“A body with the Primordial Bloodline—no way I’m releasing it without sufficient compensation,” Luo Feng looked up at the Blood Spirit Star. As the flames of the Blood Spirit Star erupted, nine more Blood Spirit Gold Pearls emerged, wrapped in the Dark World domain and sent to Luo Feng’s hand.

Luo Feng looked at the nine Blood Spirit Gold Pearls floating above his palm.

“The Blood Spirit Gold Pearl mission… there are no more opponents left. Brother Chu Yu, I’ve done my duty to you,” Luo Feng smiled.
