Chapter 563 - Ten Years of Guarding

“Huh?”

Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes.

At the border, faint roars sounded. Terrifying Silent Beasts charged out one after another.

“Starfell Pearl!”

Lin Feng extended his hand and pointed. A pearl instantly flew out of his body. It grew rapidly and expanded to the size of a star in an instant.

“Fall!”

As soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, the Starfell Pearl smashed towards the border.

Boom.

As the Starfell Pearl smashed down, even the cosmos seemed to shake and space shattered. The dozens of Silent Beasts that had just charged out of the border were shattered by the Starfell Pearl before they could even make a sound, turning into cosmic dust.

The cosmos gradually calmed down again. The Starfell Pearl flew back and landed in Lin Feng’s hand. Lin Feng glanced at the border, then closed his eyes again.

“His Highness Lin Feng is so strong!”

“That’s the Starfell Pearl, right? Wow, what a powerful Origin Weapon. Even Grand Emperor Long Yuan couldn’t guard the border with such ease.”

“It’s indeed very powerful. Even the Grand Emperor-level Silent Beasts cannot withstand a single smash from that tiny pearl. Do you still remember the Grand Emperor-level beast that His Highness Lin Feng encountered when he first came to guard the place? His Highness Lin Feng did not even use his combat body. He just threw the Starfell Pearl from afar and smashed it for a few times before the Grand Emperor-level Silent Beast was smashed to death.”

“Impressive, impressive! However, we have an advantage by standing guard with His Highness Lin Feng. There’s no need for us to fight at all.”

Many cultivators carrying out the guarding mission were discussing spiritedly, expressing their admiration for Lin Feng.

No wonder Lin Feng was so popular. It had been five years since he accepted the mission from Grand Emperor Long Yuan. During the five years he guarded the border, Lin Feng had not even moved.

Although he had never moved, Lin Feng had attacked many times. In five years, there were simply countless Silent Beasts that had charged out of the border. Once, even a Grand Emperor-level beast had appeared.

However, under the violent smash of Lin Feng’s Starfell Pearl, even the Grand Emperor-level beast was annihilated, let alone those ordinary beasts. At the same time, even those Venerables and Quasi-emperors did not have the chance to attack. They were also happy to be idle. At least with Lin Feng around, there would not be any danger.

Swoosh.

A figure flew over from afar and stopped in front of Lin Feng.

“Your Highness Lin Feng.”

“Venerable Long Wu, how is it?”

“Your Highness Lin Feng, I’m sorry that I didn’t complete the mission you gave me. I mobilized many friends regarding the spatial divine runes, but found nothing.”

“Yes, I understand. You may leave.”

Venerable Long Wu hesitated, looking as if he was about to say something.

“Anything else?”

“Your Highness Lin Feng, although I haven’t found any spatial divine runes, I once heard a rumor that it might be related to the spatial divine runes Your Highness is searching for.”

“Report!”

“I heard a rumor that a terrifying Divine Emperor of Space in the Silent Galaxy once fought with a few Divine Emperors in the Silent Galaxy for a supreme treasure, causing the Silent Galaxy to undergo an upheaval. Some people even speculate that the various dangerous zones in the Silent Galaxy are also related to that mysterious Divine Emperor of Space.”

“I see.”

Lin Feng remained expressionless. Venerable Long Wu bade farewell and left.

“Divine Emperor of Space…”

After Venerable Long Wu left, Lin Feng muttered softly. A strange glint flickered in his eyes as he quietly looked at the Silent Galaxy at the other end of the border.

Lin Feng was guarding the border and could not leave. Hence, he asked Venerable Long Wu to inquire about the spatial divine runes. After all, Venerable Long Wu was a top Venerable, and had cultivated for a long time and had a wide network. He might be able to find information on the spatial divine runes.

If there were spatial divine runes, Lin Feng was also willing to pay a price for them.

Unfortunately, his last hope was also dashed. Although Venerable Long Wu had searched for a long time and mobilized many friends, he still could not find any news about the spatial divine runes.

As for the myth of the Divine Emperor of Space of the Silent Galaxy, Lin Feng did not care at all. He knew that it was not a myth, but the truth.

“It’s almost impossible to obtain the spatial divine runes through other means, unless I find those cultivators with spatial divine runes and force them to hand over the spatial divine runes. However, that’s impossible. I can’t seal space. It’s too difficult to coerce a cultivator of the Law of Space!”

Lin Feng shook his head, already making a decision.

“There’s only one last way. The Void Sky Divine Palace might have the spatial divine runes left behind by Divine Emperor Void Sky. If I want to enter the Void Sky Divine Palace, I have to enter the Silent Galaxy…”

Lin Feng had never been able to make the decision in the past.

In his opinion, although the Void Sky Divine Palace was important, it was not indispensable. He still had a bright future ahead of him, and his strength could continue to increase. Why take such a risk?

Even a Divine King might go missing or fall after entering the Silent Galaxy, let alone Lin Feng.

However, Lin Feng had already reached a bottleneck in all aspects and could no longer improve. How many new substances or materials would there be in the treasures of a Divine Emperor?

Once he entered the Void Sky Divine Palace, Lin Feng might be able to obtain all the new substances, materials, spatial divine runes, and so on that he needed. Moreover, he might know the various reasons for the failure of Divine Emperor Void Sky’s transformation into the universe. In the future, if he wanted to take the path of Divine Emperor Void Sky, that would be a lesson learned.

In short, the Void Sky Divine Palace was very beneficial to Lin Feng. In the past, there was no need for him to go, but now, it was rather necessary.

Moreover, Lin Feng had the Law of Space with him, and the power of the Starfell Pearl was rather formidable now. Even if it was the Silent Galaxy, it was not impossible for him to venture into it.

“There are still five years left. I’ll wait a little longer.”

Lin Feng still had some reservations. Moreover, there were still five years left to his guarding mission. There was no hurry now. At least, there was still the Sacred Stone of Anathema which could help Lin Feng to comprehend Laws.

If he could comprehend one Law to the ultimate level, Lin Feng’s strength would also increase substantially. The Law of Space was his greatest hope now.

Unfortunately, comprehending the ultimate Law of Space was too difficult. Even with the Sacred Stone of Anathema, it was not something that could be done in a year or two, or three to five years.

Time passed quickly. Lin Feng stayed in the cold and dark cosmos for a full ten years.

In the past ten years, Lin Feng had not moved at all, but his Starfell Pearl had crushed countless Silent Beasts to death. Seeing that the ten-year deadline was up, some cultivators also on the guarding mission were a little reluctant to see him go as well.

With Lin Feng around, they would not be in any danger. If it were any other Grand Emperor, they would not be so idle.

Swoosh.

A figure flew over from the distant cosmos and stopped in front of Lin Feng.

“Your Highness Lin Feng, the ten-year deadline is up. It’s my turn.”

Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes. Seeing that it was Grand Emperor Cursed Blade, he nodded slightly and said, “Grand Emperor Cursed Blade, thank you in advance for your trouble!”

Ten years had passed. Lin Feng naturally would not stay at the border anymore. After handing over the mission to Grand Emperor Cursed Blade, he left directly.

“It’s been ten years. Nothing went wrong while Grand Emperor Long Yuan and Grand Emperor of Annihilation were guarding it. Now, it’s my turn. I can’t disgrace the title of Grand Emperors!”

Grand Emperor Cursed Blade also took this guarding mission very seriously. Hence, the Grand Emperor guarding the border changed from Lin Feng to Grand Emperor Cursed Blade. The cosmos was still calm.
