Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

Luo Feng flew to the main entrance of the main building of the Flame Wind Pavilion, where the attendant who had taken care of him last time was already waiting.

"Divine Monarch," the attendant immediately approached with a smile, "the Deputy Pavilion Master instructed me to invite you over."

"Deputy Pavilion Master?" Luo Feng nodded slightly, "Lead the way."

The attendant led Luo Feng away from the main building, flying into the depths of the entire structure of the Flame Wind Pavilion, and landed in front of a small building whose door was open. The attendant said, "The Deputy Pavilion Master is already waiting inside for you."

Luo Feng nodded, then walked into the small building, with the attendant waiting outside.

Inside the small building.

A figure of condensed gray mist was sitting there, its two cavity-like holes appearing to 'smile' as it watched Luo Feng.

"Lord Luo He, please take a seat," the gray mist figure offered wine personally.

Luo Feng sat opposite.

"How about tasting this wine?" the gray mist figure said.

Luo Feng picked up the wine glass and saw the liquid emanating a chill, with vague terrifying exotic beasts roaring inside; Luo Feng, quite curious, lifted it gently and took a small sip, only to feel a coolness spreading through his soul.

"This wine is brewed using the blood of the Godly King Level Exotic Beast 'Myriad Realms Ice Wind Beast' as raw material, which nourishes the soul and can enhance cognition," the gray mist figure stated, "One cup can maintain the effect for a day."

"Enhancing cognition?" Luo Feng was surprised.

Myriad Realms Ice Wind Beast? In the Duan Dong River heritage, it was recorded that this Godly King level exotic beast was composed of ice. Its icy scales naturally nurtured numerous universes—so many that it was known as the Myriad.

The 'wind' it breathed possessed a trace of the power of the Origin Great Dao, hence it was long known as the 'Myriad Realms Ice Wind Beast.' It had not been long since it appeared in the Land of Origin when the Flame Wind Ancient Country captured it! They've been raising it and continuously extracting its body's materials to concoct various treasures and fine wines.

"When I left the Flame Wind Ancient Country, I brought some with me. I only serve it to friends whom I admire," said the gray mist figure.

"The Deputy Pavilion Master flatters me," Luo Feng indeed felt the coolness continuously spreading through his soul, significantly increasing the speed of his soul's thoughts, just as the other party had said about the enhancement of cognition.

The gray mist figure shook its head, "In a relatively remote country like Yu Kingdom, resources are ultimately limited. Being able to kill the Blood Python Association Leader one-on-one at the Eternal True God stage is quite formidable!"

Luo Feng laughed.

Indeed, the Blood Python Association Leader had deep accumulations in all aspects and used Mechanical Stream Secret Treasures, making his strength truly formidable. An Eternal True God killing him? Indeed difficult. Figures like Xue Yun and Moli Xiao were elites nurtured by the Divine Kingdom.

"I came here today to claim the bounty," Luo Feng said.

"Before your confrontation, only you, Lord Luo He, took on the task. And soon after taking the task, the Blood Python Association Leader died," the gray mist figure stated, "However, according to the rules of the Flame Wind Association's Dark Hall, you still need to present proof of your kill."

"Since only you took on the task, simply presenting the body, or even remains of the body or his primary weapon or treasure, will suffice," the gray mist figure said.

If several powerful figures had taken on the task at the same time, the Flame Wind Pavilion's verification process would be much more stringent.

"Would this suffice?" Luo Feng flipped his hand and took out the armor left behind by the Blood Python Association Leader, which had several inconspicuous cracks and wounds. However, as an Eternal Level Armor Secret Treasure, these cracks and wounds could heal slowly with nourishment by Divine Power.

Having a glance at it, the gray mist figure smiled and nodded, "That will do!"

"Here is your bounty of 160,000 cosmic sands!" The gray mist figure waved lightly, and a jade vial appeared in front of Luo Feng.

Luo Feng took the jade vial and penetrated it with Divine Power to check, finding inside the 160,000 cosmic sands. Evidently, the Flame Wind Pavilion had prepared them well in advance.

"If Lord Luo He does not need to use the large amount of cosmic sand immediately, it can be temporarily stored at the Flame Wind Pavilion," the gray mist figure said with a smile, "It can be exchanged at any Flame Wind Pavilion across the entire Land of Origin."

"No need," Luo Feng stood up.

He knew about the storage services offered by the Flame Wind Pavilion, especially for those powerful cultivators who died without arranging for heirs. In those cases, their deposits in the Flame Wind Pavilion naturally became the property of the pavilion.

"Deputy Pavilion Master, I shall take my leave now," Luo Feng stated.

The gray mist figure stood up to see him off.

After Luo Feng departed, a muscular man suddenly appeared in the small building.

"Pavilion Master, wouldn't you want to chat with him for a bit?" the gray mist figure looked at the muscular man.

"To be able to kill the Blood Python Association Leader single-handedly, one generally has some background. Either they are elites nurtured by a Divine Kingdom, or they have had some unique adventure, undergoing numerous hardships... But this Luo He, the Flame Wind Pavilion had no prior records of him," the muscular man gently shook his head, "I feel he's like a wisp of mist."

"Uncle, don't you think he's too reckless? He walked into the Blood Python Association Headquarters in broad daylight, killed the Blood Python Association Leader. After killing, he immediately came to our Flame Wind Pavilion to claim his bounty," the muscular man frowned, "Doesn't he guess that many forces in Huyang City must be watching the doors to the Flame Wind Pavilion?

Him coming to the Flame Wind Pavilion at this time must have been noticed by many forces."

The gray mist figure nodded, "Indeed, he is quite reckless."

"It means, he didn't consider those forces worth his regard," the muscular man laughed, "But one thing is very certain, he values this bounty highly."

"Most cultivators have to struggle for resources," the gray mist figure sighed, having seen too many Eternal True Gods behave ruthlessly for wealth during his tenure at the Flame Wind Pavilion.

Huyang City, Primal Chaos Armor 913 Cave Mansion.

"Lord Luo Sa, I'm good just guarding here," Moyu Qingyan was meditating in a small building near the cave mansion's main gate, while Morosa also kept an eye on the main gate.

"Don't mind me," Morosa scolded.

"Oh." Moyu Qingyan immediately shut up, daring not to say more.

Morosa patiently waited.

Finally, the formation of the cave mansion operated, and the grand door naturally opened as Luo Feng flew in from the outside.

"Master." Morosa instantly darted out to approach Luo Feng, smiling ingratiatingly. Moyu Qingyan also immediately followed out and waited by the side.

Seeing Morosa's demeanor, Luo Feng laughed and said, "Don't worry, I tried my best to preserve your food."

"Thank you, Master." Morosa was overjoyed.

"Qingyan, focus and comprehend the laws deeply," Luo Feng instructed.

"Yes," Moyu Qingyan immediately responded.

Following that, Luo Feng took Morosa and went to the underground grand hall.

"Master is truly formidable, directly assaulting the headquarters of the Blood Python Association. I wonder if the leader of the Blood Python is dead or alive," thought Moyu Qingyan as he returned to the small building at the side. The stronger Luo Feng became, the more he filled with anticipation.

After all, if he passed the test, he hoped to become an apprentice.

Moyu Qingyan sat cross-legged in the small building, beginning to carefully contemplate the Ten Fundamental Laws.

...

In the underground grand hall, inside the Star Tower.

With a wave of his hand, Luo Feng threw out the corpses of Vice President Lai Mo and Association Leader Mu Yang of the Blood Python, the two massive bodies exuding a rather terrifying aura.

"Two bodies?" Morosa's eyes lit up.

"There's also a vice president whose body is of poisonous insects, transforming into millions of poisonous insects," said Luo Feng, "I destroyed the millions of poisonous insects, and he was utterly eradicated and vanished. However, I suspect he might still be alive because, with such a body, if trained sufficiently, each insect is a life. But his strength was weak, so it's not necessary to mind."

Morosa nodded, his eyes fervently fixated on the body of the Blood Python leader, "Still, the body of a powerful one is preferred. The lineage of this Blood Python leader probably reached the Tenfold Realm of an eternal true god. Moreover, the lineage he primarily cultivated is also very powerful."

"If you like it, that's good," said Luo Feng as he nodded and then went to another layer of space in the Star Tower.

Morosa then sat cross-legged, beginning to absorb the powerful lineage and various energies contained in the two bodies.

...

Luo Feng was alone in a layer of space in the Star Tower.

"Let's see how much I gained this time." Luo Feng waved his hand, taking out all the spoils of war from his trip to the headquarters of the Blood Python Association.

"Wow, how could the Blood Python leader carry so much Cosmic Sand?" Luo Feng eyed the treasures storing Cosmic Sand in front of him and, after a brief tally, couldn't help but be astonished, "Including what the two vice presidents carried and the bounty, the Cosmic Sand amounts to over 980,000 pieces!"

This enormous amount of Cosmic Sand delighted Luo Feng.

"An eternal true god's resources are either used in cultivation or exchanged for powerful treasures," Luo Feng was surprised, "It's unexpected that the Blood Python leader carried so much Cosmic Sand on his person."

"The resources for a second body refinement should be enough," Luo happily looked towards the floating blood-colored disc, its surface glistening with a flow of light. Upon closer observation, he discovered a massive blood river flowing inside it.

Luo Feng stretched out his hand and grasped the blood-colored disc, Perfect Divine Power permeating through it.

Whumm~~~

After Perfect Divine Power was infused, it quickly refined this masterless Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure and extracted a large amount of information from it.

"An eternal true god-level individual Mechanical Treasure, 'Life Blood River'?" Luo Feng was secretly shocked, "With this mechanical treasure, one can transform their godly body into a blood river, almost flawlessly."

"Whether it's for protection, killing enemies, escaping, eroding, or creating avatars... this Life Blood River possesses Primal Chaos characteristics, very powerful."

"From value assessment, my Sha Wu Wings are valued at around 1,000,000 Cosmic Sand, while this 'Life Blood River' is valued at about 1,500,000 Cosmic Sand, even higher!" Luo Feng deduced.

An eternal true god-level Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure, commanding some power of the Primal Chaos Realm, this was already among the pinnacle in the Land of Origin. Typically valued between 500,000 to 5,000,000 Cosmic Sand, there's no essential disparity in them.

A Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure worth 5,000,000 Cosmic Sand is more like a perfect combination of several Mechanical Stream Secret Treasures!

Whumm~~~

With a thought, Luo Feng infused a full one percent of his Divine Power into this blood-colored disc, and although he hadn't studied the 'Life Blood River' this Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure in detail, relying on Perfect Divine Power, he could crudely use it right after acquiring it.

Boom-boom-boom~~~ The blood-colored disc trembled.

The one percent of Luo Feng's Divine Power was even more massive than that of an 'unlimited godly body' eternal true god.

A blood river that seemed to sweep across and devour everything formed, as if it wanted to submerge all things and return everything to chaos, integrating into the blood river.

Watching the fearsome blood river floating in front of him, Luo Feng wore a smile.

"Such a formidable treasure was squandered by the leader of the Blood Python!" Luo Feng lamented. In terms of combating enemies, the Sha Wu Wings were not as troublesome or fearsome as this 'Life Blood River'."
