Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

Luo Feng was observing Emperor Qing, and through the domain formed by the Star Tower, he could sense the sharpness contained within Emperor Qing. Even his own Endless Blood River was not certain to withstand that terrifying sharpness.

"Not unworthy of being the only one Above God King in the Land of Origin of this era." Luo Feng thought silently.

The ancestors of the two countries and the Ancestor of the East Extreme Domain do not belong to this era.

"His talent is a cut above the rest, far surpassing other Cultivators." Luo Feng understood this. Not counting himself, Emperor Qing was the most terrifying of his contemporaries, followed by the Ultimate Realm Lord of Ten Thousand Realms, and then by Emperor Fu, Emperor Ming, Wind City Empress, Fire Ancestor, and so on.

Emperor Qing only had eyes for Luo Feng, not caring about the Sector Beast at all.

Because the minimum threshold for teleporting away from the Source World is an 'Ultimate Realm Life Form.' Outside of the Source World, there's a convergence of elites from many Source Worlds and countless other worlds. In that place, being at the Ultimate Realm is only the basic level, so he naturally didn't care about a Sector Beast.

"I originally thought that in our era of the Land of Origin, only I and the Lord of Ten Thousand Realms emerged." Emperor Qing's eyes were enthusiastic, "Who would have expected that as the Land of Origin gradually entered its twilight, the Galaxy Ruler appeared. Haha, it truly is a joyous occasion."

Being from the same Land of Origin, they were obviously the most suitable companions in life and death.

Having a trustworthy companion during adventures in the outside world is too precious!

"If you don't mind, I would like to call you Galaxy Brother." Emperor Qing smiled as he looked at Luo Feng.

"Of course that's okay." Luo Feng said. The thirteen Emperors of the Flame Wind Ancient Country all have different ways of doing things! Emperor Qing belongs to the most dazzling kind, with exceptional talent, outstanding above all! He disdains Primordial Bloodline, disdains devouring creatures, and other devious paths; by just comprehending the operations of the Heaven and Earth Rules, he naturally became an Ultimate Realm being.

Even while cultivating within the Land of Origin, he broke through the Ultimate Realm and reached Above God King!

It was indeed the case that resources helped him reach this point.

But other Emperors and Monarchs of the two great Imperial Clans, with similar vast resources, have not even produced one Ultimate Realm being! This shows just how terrifying Emperor Qing's talent is.

"As for Emperor Yuan's matter, it was his own fault." Emperor Qing didn't care, "His greedy nature, repeatedly devouring countless creatures, has caused a lot of trouble! Such a troublemaker and waste, according to my personality, should have been killed long ago. But the rules of the Flame Wind Ancient Country Royal Family were set by the Ancestor, and I couldn't readily change them."

Luo Feng listened with some surprise. Emperor Qing did not come to pick a quarrel but instead thought Emperor Yuan deserved to die?

"The Ancestor was lenient, believing that the Great Dao is immeasurable and need not be overly constrained." Emperor Qing shook his head with a smile, "Let's not talk about that. I came today also to invite Galaxy Brother to leave the Land of Origin and join me in adventures outside."

"Invite me, to join forces?" Luo Feng was a little surprised.

"In the outside adventures, dangers are everywhere." Emperor Qing looked at Luo Feng, "Alien races are not reliable and can betray at any time. You and I are both from the Land of Origin, even if we move on to the next era of the Land of Origin... We will still have Avatars staying in the Land of Origin, destined to coexist for endless eons, so naturally, we are the most trustworthy."

"Like Primogenitor Yan Feng and Thunder Ancestor, they have been lifelong companions through endless eons, supporting each other, and only then did they reach today." Emperor Qing looked at Luo Feng, "I really need a companion who is trustworthy and also has enough strength."

"I heard that teleporting away from the Land of Origin will lead to different places?" Luo Feng said, "It's not certain that I can meet up with you, Emperor Qing, right?"

"I have the Primordial Space Coordinates, which can lock onto the destination. I can send out an Avatar to teleport with you, so we can teleport to the world where I am." Emperor Qing said, "When I first teleported, it was to this world, where I have rooted myself for many long years, and I have established some foundations. Joining forces with me, your start will certainly be much smoother."

Luo Feng was quite tempted upon hearing this.

But he himself was not even an Ultimate Realm Life Form yet! Not qualified to leave the Land of Origin.

"The Land of Origin is too small for both of us." Emperor Qing urged passionately, "Outside the Source World! There are strong beings from a multitude of other Source Worlds and countless other worlds... That's where we should be going."

"I am currently cultivating a Secret Technique." Luo Feng thought for a moment and then said, "I'll wait until this Secret Technique is mastered before heading outside the Land of Origin."

"Cultivating a Secret Technique?" Emperor Qing asked, "How long will that take?"

At their level of cultivation, if they devoted themselves to cultivating a powerful Secret Technique, it would be quite normal to take hundreds of thousands or even millions of eons.

"About a thousand eons," Luo Feng said.

Luo Feng received three kinds of Ultimate Realm Primordial Bloodline Biological Materials and naturally wanted to elevate the World Life Form to an even higher level! Those Ultimate Realm Primordial Bloodline Creatures, despite their low intelligence, have such strength. If Luo Feng succeeds, by relying solely on his Physical Body he may well match those Above God King!

Coupled with a deeper accumulation of the Great Dao of Life and Death, Luo Feng felt that by then, he could try to venture outside the Source World to gain some insight.

The most crucial point is... to pass through the teleportation channel, you must at least be an Ultimate Realm Life Form! This is the threshold set by the Universe.

"Only about a thousand eons?" Upon hearing this, Emperor Qing laughed, "No rush, no rush. Galaxy Brother, cultivate well and perfect your Secret Technique, and then we can set off together."

Luo Feng nodded.

According to the intelligence on Emperor Qing and from their current interaction, Luo Feng found that Emperor Qing was suitable to be a companion.

Most importantly, both sides are from the Land of Origin! In the future, they would have to coexist in the Land of Origin for a long time, and they also had to consider their friends and disciples. Coming from the same Source World, the possibility of betrayal was extremely low.

"If Galaxy Brother doesn't mind, shall we spar a bit?" Emperor Qing looked at Luo Feng, "Our confrontation will also show the forces of the Land of Origin that they dare not make enemies with Galaxy Brother again."

"Spar? Sure." Luo Feng was also quite looking forward to it.

"Good, then let's go outside the continent, into the Universe Ocean," Emperor Qing said. "That way, we won't involve the innocent."

Luo Feng nodded.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

They came one after another, traversing the vast and remote distances to arrive outside the land of the Land of Origin, within the 'Universe Ocean'.

This vast expanse of the Universe Ocean, close to the Land of Origin, was already devoid of any creatures.

"Please." Emperor Qing said with a smile, he who had traveled and battled in the outside world, encountering countless strong beings from different realms. Under the power constraints of the Land of Origin, Emperor Qing naturally felt no pressure.

He was now merely curious about the strength of this 'future companion'. He only wished for his companion to be as strong as possible!

Luo Feng stood there.

"Be careful." Luo Feng brimmed with fighting spirit, such an opponent was rare indeed. With a single thought, his form instantly transformed into an Endless Blood River, which roiling and spread to an infinite expanse in a flash.

The scope of the Blood River enveloped its own realm! The Blood River's length and width had no end; those without sufficient strength would never be able to fly out of its bounds.

"Break!"

Emperor Qing stood still, yet from him radiated terrifying sword lights that cut in all directions.

These sword lights were condensed to the extreme, cutting through all obstacles, even severing the operating rules! Even though Luo Feng's Endless Blood River was thick, each current like a world of its own, it was still being cut through by these sword lights.

Nineteen sword lights that could cut through All Things Even managed to slice open the obstructions of the Blood River realm, reaching the adjacent Universe Ocean.

"Boom~~~" The Universe Ocean was struck, creating void chasms, and even the membrane of the Source World had long cracks.

The might of these nineteen terrifying sword lights, unobscured and flagrant, instantly alarmed every Godly King in the Land of Origin.

"This—"

"This power?"

Every Godly King in the Land of Origin felt a heart palpitating sense of power, that could easily annihilate them, bursting forth at the edge of the continent, within a part of the Universe Ocean. Instantly, they each tried to pry into the scene.

The powerful Godly Kings could cast Secret Techniques to watch from afar.

The weaker Godly Kings needed to use the images from the Flame Wind Pavilion and Thunderclap Commerce to peer into the scene.

"The Galaxy Ruler and Emperor Qing have clashed."

"Is Emperor Qing stepping up for the Flame Wind Ancient Country? Is he avenging Di Yuan?"

Various powers were stirred up.

"Emperor Qing has made his move." Di Yan, Di Kong, Di Wu, and other monarchs were very excited; they had full confidence in Emperor Qing.

"Emperor Qing once said that he could do nothing against the Galaxy Ruler, so why would he still make a move?" Di Fu watched the scene from afar.

...

"Luo Feng!" Among the many Godly Kings watching, there was also the Mountain sitting guest.

The Mountain sitting guest had long known the identity of the black-robed golden-faced figure.

"Luo Feng's strength could easily suppress the combined forces of eight monarchs. I wonder how he will fare against Emperor Qing?" Although Mountain sitting guest was somewhat nervous, he still had confidence in his disciple.

This disciple of his, with such exceptional talent, was even above Emperor Qing and the Lord of Ten Thousand Realms.

Merely hundreds of age-cycles upon arrival at the Land of Origin, he had grown so much! How terrifying was this talent and potential?

...

Within the Universe Ocean near the land.

Luo Feng could naturally sense the gazes of numerous Godly Kings watching from afar; he also understood Emperor Qing's approach—to make a bigger scene, to make the various powers truly understand the strength of the 'Galaxy Ruler'.

"If you have strength, you must let them witness." Emperor Qing stood there, "Once they see it clearly, they will become very obedient!"

Outside the Endless Blood River stood no less than nineteen sword lights, naturally forming a massive Sword Array!

"Brother Emperor Qing's Sword Array is indeed formidable, able to effortlessly tear through my Blood River," Luo Feng remarked.

"Water flow fears not being torn asunder." Emperor Qing laughed, "I have struck nineteen swords, yet your Endless Blood River hasn't weakened in the slightest. But next, I shall get serious."

"This Sword Array, named 'Three Thousand Kill Array', draws from the core mysteries of an ancient Witch Array, integrated into one. Although it is restricted by the Supreme Rules, its power is limited. However, its profound mysteries can be fully displayed," Emperor Qing said smilingly, "Please receive my strike."

Upon finishing his words.

The immense Sword Array suddenly erupted with light, countless sword lights converged and rotated, turning the entire formation into black and white hues, seeking to annihilate the entire Blood River.

Yet the Endless Blood River was immensely thick; despite the black and white sword lights' efforts to rend it asunder, tendrils of blood infiltrated the sword lights, causing them to collapse.

"A Dao of Life Blood River?" Emperor Qing determined in an instant, "Each strand of the Blood River's life force is terrifyingly powerful, once contaminated, it can even corrode and destroy my sword lights."
