Swallowed Star 2: Origin Continent

Chapter 69: Transformation of Will (1)



Chapter 69: Transformation of Will (1)

Luo Feng sat alone on the mountain top of his cave dwelling, watching the drizzle begin to fall from the sky.

He had immersed himself in the “Three Thousand Void Tribulation Beast Diagram” and had only comprehended eight layers before stopping temporarily. On one hand, his mind felt fatigued and needed rest; on the other hand, he needed to pause and carefully contemplate.

“The tribulation beast’s experiences are different from those of ordinary cultivators!” Luo Feng pondered.

“It is born facing endless tribulations, each one forcing it into utter despair and death.”

The world of cultivators still had order.

The tribulation beast experienced only endless tribulations. If at any moment it despaired and gave up, it would die.

Only with an ‘Undying Heart’ could it survive the endless tribulations.

“Each tribulation tempers it, and surviving one is like being reborn from the ashes. But what awaits it is the next tribulation.”

“Such seemingly endless tribulations, just experiencing the fundamental essence of them, sends chills down my spine.”

Luo Feng thought to himself.

He had also gone through hardships and life-and-death trials, but not as much as the tribulation beast.

“Each descending tribulation seems like a high and mighty rule.”

Luo Feng contemplated and felt that this high and mighty rule was different from the supreme rules.

“The mind appears to be the most fragile.”

“Once the mind and will are destroyed and collapse, even the strongest divine body and secret treasures can’t exert any power.”

“But if the mind is strong, just the will alone can sweep away strong enemies.”

“The mind… can be a weakness, but it can also be the strongest weapon.”

At this moment, Luo Feng admired the tribulation beast.

After enduring so many terrifying tribulations, it finally reached the other shore and underwent a complete transformation.

Suddenly, Luo Feng felt the Star Tower inside his body, and Morosa requested to come out.

“Master, master, let me out.”

Morosa’s voice echoed in his mind.

With a thought, Luo Feng made Morosa appear beside him.

Morosa looked at the light drizzle outside, laid down contentedly, and stroked his body comfortably.

“The corpse of Xue Yun is still in the Star Tower. Why are you resting?” Luo Feng looked at him. He was well aware of everything inside the Star Tower.

“I couldn’t hold on anymore!” Morosa lay there comfortably, transmitting through his mind, “I first devoured the corpses of other Eternal True Gods, which helped me a little. But Yutian Hu’s body is too strong, and his bloodline is very special. After absorbing it, I couldn’t digest it immediately.”

Even a Boundary Beast would be overstuffed if it ate too fast.

Yutian Hu’s ability to cultivate with his bloodline, making his divine body comparable to the Infinite Divine Body, showed the terrifying nature of his bloodline.

“You can also be overstuffed?” Luo Feng teased through a mind transmission.

“I feel that after digesting for a while, even if I don’t devour any other divine bodies, I can reach the Chaos level within a few eras.” Morosa stood up excitedly, transmitting through his mind, “Master, if I continue to devour Xue Yun’s body, I think I can directly reach the Chaos level after finishing.”

Luo Feng was surprised, “So soon to reach the Chaos level?” He looked at him.

“Yutian Hu’s divine body is comparable to the Infinite Divine Body, though smaller in size, but his bloodline is extraordinary. And Xue Yun’s divine body attracts me even more than Yutian Hu’s.”

Morosa transmitted through his mind, “I’m sure that after devouring Xue Yun’s body, I will definitely reach the Chaos level.”

“Master, when will you reach the Chaos level?” Morosa transmitted, intentionally asking.

Luo Feng looked at him, “How’s your will training going? Let’s spar in the Star Tower later with our will techniques.”

Morosa smiled sheepishly.

“Go and teach Qingyan. That kid hasn’t even comprehended the ten fundamental laws yet,” Luo Feng urged.

“Yes, yes.” Morosa didn’t dare to boast and immediately turned into a shadow, flying down the mountain to find Moyu Qingyan.

Luo Feng shook his head slightly.

……

Time passed day by day. Apart from resting once every few days, Luo Feng spent all his time comprehending the tribulation beast diagram.

One day, suddenly.

“Master, master!”

Moyu Qingyan urgently transmitted.

“What’s the matter?” Luo Feng was in the underground hall of the Star Tower, comprehending the tribulation beast diagram. He knew Moyu Qingyan wouldn’t disturb him easily.

“There’s a message! It’s a personal letter from Marquis Liu Yin!” Moyu Qingyan felt pressured. A personal letter from a Chaos Overlord was something he dared not ignore and had to report to his master.

Boom…

The door of the underground hall opened.

Luo Feng walked out, and in a flash, he was at the main entrance of the cave dwelling.

“Divine Lord Luo He!” At the main entrance stood a rock creature who smiled warmly.

“I am Chen Shi Jiu from the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce, entrusted by Marquis Liu Yin to deliver this personal letter.”

The Qianshi Chamber of Commerce was a large merchant association spanning multiple kingdoms, backed by several Divine Kings, with a branch in Huyang City as well.

“Thank you, President Chen,” Luo Feng recognized the other party’s identity.

“Just delivering a letter, I’ll take my leave now!” The rock creature smiled.

As the president of the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce’s branch in Huyang City, his status and influence in the city were top-tier.

Even though he stood before Luo Feng, he remained humble.

Luo Feng took the letter and watched him leave.

The door closed, and Luo Feng flashed to the mountain top.

He immediately wanted to read the letter.

As soon as he unsealed the outer layer,

Buzz…

The letter began to burn, turning into a ball of blood-colored flame, which startled Luo Feng.

“A divine power incarnation?”

Luo Feng recognized that the letter contained a trace of terrifying divine power, which was triggered upon opening.

The blood-colored flame condensed into a figure, wearing dark red armor and exuding a faint aura of darkness and calamity.

He smiled at Luo Feng, with two burning blood-colored flames in his eyes.

Even though he was smiling, Luo Feng still felt the darkness and terror, with a strong sense of threat.

“Marquis Liu Yin?” Luo Feng knew some basic information about him.

“It’s me!” Marquis Liu Yin nodded with a smile, “I heard there’s an extraordinary Eternal True God in Huyang City, so I came to see you personally.”

“Marquis, you overpraise me. Compared to you, we Eternal True Gods are insignificant.”

Luo Feng immediately replied.

“Today you are an Eternal True God, and perhaps in the future, you will be a Chaos Overlord, my peer.” Marquis Liu Yin stood on the mountain top, looking at the vast city.

“Huyang City is a beautiful city. I intend to make it part of my fiefdom. What do you think?”

Luo Feng immediately said, “The conflict between Liu Yin Chaos State and Jiugang Chaos State is not something an Eternal True God like me can decide.”

Marquis Liu Yin looked at the vast world, sighing, “The Origin Continent is full of mixed forces, and every resource has an owner. Even Divine Kings often have no chance to intervene in many precious resources.”

“We strive to climb the path of cultivation, to evolve our lives to higher levels. Cultivation is one part, and resources are the other.”

Marquis Liu Yin looked at Luo Feng, “The fiefdom of a Chaos Overlord can continuously produce resources. Unfortunately, I only have one Chaos State as my fiefdom, which is too small.”

Luo Feng listened.

“According to the rules of Shiguo, a Chaos Overlord can have only one Chaos State as a fiefdom. To have more, one must conquer it themselves.”

Marquis Liu Yin continued, “Jiugang Chaos State is next to mine, making it the most suitable target.”

“For my cultivation path, I need to expand my fiefdom,” Marquis Liu Yin said. “No one can stop me. Whoever stands in my way, stands in the way of my cultivation.”

Marquis Liu Yin’s voice carried an unshakable will.

“If Jiugang Marquis blocks me, I will personally deal with him.” Marquis Liu Yin looked at Luo Feng, “And in the battles at the level of Eternal True Gods, you alone can surpass the entire Huyang City’s legion. I hope you won’t interfere.”

“If you don’t interfere, I’ll present you with a gift, and we can be friends.”

“If you interfere and ruin my plans,” Marquis Liu Yin looked at Luo Feng, “think carefully, is it worth risking your life for an unrelated Jiugang Marquis?”

After speaking, Marquis Liu Yin’s figure dissipated.

Having learned about Luo Feng’s personality, knowing he was upright and hard to use, Marquis Liu Yin decided to intimidate him.

If he could make Luo Feng back down, it would naturally be good.

Even if he didn’t succeed, he wouldn’t lose anything.

“This Marquis Liu Yin is determined to take Jiugang Chaos State!”

Luo Feng frowned slightly. Clearly, Chaos Overlords valued the continuous resource production from their fiefdoms.

“I need to be more cautious in my actions from now on,” Luo Feng thought.

In fact, Luo Feng had never planned to fight for Jiugang Marquis.

Whether it was the usual behavior of the Five Great Families in the City Lord’s Mansion or his need to lie low to deal with the future Shigu

o lords, there was no need to put himself in danger.

“Marquis Liu Yin personally came to find me. It seems Huyang City and the entire Jiugang Chaos State are about to face a war.”

Luo Feng thought for a while and then returned to the underground hall.

The ownership of Jiugang Chaos State was a concern for Jiugang Marquis and the Divine Kings of Yuguo, not for him.

The benefits were too small to risk his life.

In the Star Tower, Luo Feng sat cross-legged, looking at the “Three Thousand Void Tribulation Beast Diagram” floating in mid-air.

“At the 533rd layer, the tribulation beast faced numerous tribulations. During this process, it encountered some companions.”

Luo Feng saw that, apart from the tribulation beast, there were other tribulation-like creatures reflected in the void diagram.

“But its companions fell one by one, and some were even killed by the tribulation beast!”

“At the 679th layer, the tribulation beast had no companions left. At this moment, it became even more lonely and stronger. Its mind and will became more terrifying, and the tribulations it faced were resolved.”

Luo Feng vaguely sensed a path of mind cultivation that belonged to the tribulation beast.

At over 600 layers, the tribulation beast’s mind and will had grown to an extremely terrifying level, far surpassing the current Luo Feng. Just a thought could cause the vast heavens and earth to perish and make the intangible rules’ tribulations collapse.

Luo Feng comprehended a trace, feeling his own mind slowly transforming.

“At the 852nd layer, the tribulation beast faced the most terrifying tribulation in history. It was another tribulation-like beast. The two beasts fought to the death.”

“This terrifying battle lasted a long time. Until the 873rd layer, the tribulation beast completely won, undergoing a major transformation.”

Just by watching the “Three Thousand Void Tribulation Beast Diagram,” Luo Feng felt like he was growing alongside the tribulation beast, gaining a lot.

“The mind can be large or small, large enough to oppose the supreme rules, and small enough to merge with countless weak ones.”

“Countless weak ones merging can match the supreme.”

At the 873rd layer, when the tribulation beast completely won and transformed, Luo Feng sensed more about the tribulation beast’s mind cultivation method, and his own mind slowly transformed.

“Boom…”

Long ago, when he was a True God, his will was already at the peak of a Chaos Overlord.

With a strong body nurturing it, the “Lieu Yuan Technique” refining it, and various resources assisting, especially the insights gained from the “Three Thousand Void Tribulation Beast Diagram,” Luo Feng finally broke through that bottleneck in his mind and will.

======

Today is June 8th, coincidentally Luo Feng’s birthday.

On this day, Luo Feng’s mind and will broke through to the Divine King level.

What a coincidence.
