While Luo Feng was dedicating himself to cultivation, a transcendent being from the Primal Chaos Realm arrived in Chu Capital.At one of Marquis Chu Feng's other residences.

A handsome man with three eyes looked into the distance and immediately stood up. Marquis Chu Feng also stood up and looked, only to see a figure that had seemingly appeared close by in a blink of an eye. The figure was clad in a simple yet slightly tattered dark robe. At first glance, it seemed merely a damaged robe, but upon closer inspection, it felt like looking at a tattered dark world.
The figure had a face with blue scales, appearing ugly, yet his eyes were calm and gentle, as if they contained the worlds of heaven and earth.
As he approached, he naturally influenced the surrounding environment, as if the very operation of heaven and earth revolved around him.
To master a branch of the Origin Great Dao is to become a Godly King! The complete Great Dao of Life Origin can evolve the operational laws of the Primordial Cosmos. A branch of the Dao is also sufficient to sustain the cosmic operational laws of a small universe.
With this, a Godly King can create a small universe.
Godly Kings operate the laws of the cosmos independently, possessing unimaginable abilities. When figures like the one in the dark robe arrive, the cosmos centering around them is a common phenomenon seen with Godly Kings.
"Lord Yuan Xiu of Yuan Xiu Mansion is clearly only a transcendent of the Primal Chaos Realm, yet he can influence the operation of heaven and earth, more terrifying than the last time I saw him," Marquis Chu Feng thought apprehensively, and immediately went forward to greet him.
"Brother, this is Marquis Chu Feng," said the handsome three-eyed man, stepping forward with a smile.
"Marquis Chu Feng greets the mansion lord," Marquis Chu Feng said with considerable humility.
Becoming a transcendent of the Primal Chaos Realm is equivalent to reaching the first realm of the Godly King. Such beings seldom care about first-rank marquises. Only a first-rank marquis needs to seek them, and whether they bother with a marquis depends on their mood.
"When I last saw Marquis Chu Feng, he was still a second-rank marquis," said Lord Yuan Xiu with a smile, "Now, he has already become a first-rank marquis! For someone who cultivates with a regular godly body to reach this level, Marquis Chu Feng is truly extraordinary."
"Lord, you flatter me, please, have a seat," Marquis Chu Feng said warmly.
Soon, the three of them sat down, and attendants brought over food and drinks.
"I heard that the mansion lord came to Chu Capital to visit a Godly King?" Marquis Chu Feng asked.
"Indeed, I intended to visit a Godly King this time in Chu Capital. However, I heard... there is a transcendent of the Primal Chaos Realm in Chu Capital now, known as Great Saint Luo He," Lord Yuan Xiu said, clearly interested.
Marquis Chu Feng nodded, "This Great Saint Luo He is quite mysterious, rarely making moves. He previously fought against five by himself and swept through five pinnacle beings of the Primal Chaos Realm, revealing his true strength to the outside world."
"Given his low profile, it seems he also focuses on cultivation. Marquis Chu Feng, I desire to meet this Great Saint Luo He and have a dialogue on the Dao. Please help me arrange it to see if Great Saint Luo He is willing," said Lord Yuan Xiu.
Marquis Chu Feng's spirits lifted.
He wasn't afraid of a transcendent of the Primal Chaos Realm asking for help—he was afraid they might ignore him entirely.
"Rest assured, lord, I will arrange everything properly," said Marquis Chu Feng.
...
During his period of cultivation, Luo Feng occasionally came out to relax his mind.
"Master, Marquis Chu Feng personally paid a visit," Morosa told Luo Feng, "But you were in closed-off cultivation at the time, so I didn't disturb you."
"He paid a visit?" Luo Feng was surprised.
After all, Marquis Chu Feng was a first-rank nobility of the Imperial Clan, and he had left after finding Luo Feng in closed-off cultivation, respecting the protocol.
"Did he mention what it was about?" Luo Feng asked.
"Marquis Chu Feng also mentioned that his good friend, 'Lord Yuan Xiu of Yuan Xiu Mansion,' intends to host a banquet for you to discuss the Dao. His visit was to see if you would be willing to attend the banquet to discuss the Dao?" Morosa said.
"Discuss the Dao? Lord Yuan Xiu?" Luo Feng naturally knew of him; Emperor Chu's lineage had only two transcendent beings of the Primal Chaos Realm.
One was Marquis Dark Fire, a direct disciple of 'Emperor Chu.'
The other was Lord Yuan Xiu, a direct disciple of the sovereign of the first-class country 'Wanjie Kingdom.'
In the Land of Origin, there are three major first-class forces: Tianmu Kingdom, Wanjie Kingdom, and the Eastern Extreme Territory.
The Eastern Extreme Territory is the last surviving place of the original aborigines of the Land of Origin. Although these aborigines are somewhat lacking in intelligence and perceptiveness, their gathering also qualifies them as a first-class force.
Tianmu Kingdom is known for possessing a Pinnacle Sector Beast.
Wanjie Kingdom's prominence comes from the sovereign of Wanjie Kingdom! The sovereign's power alone has transformed a region into a first-class force, ensuring that he stands among the pinnacle existences of the Land of Origin. The sovereign's disciples are numerous; some serve as guest elders in the Thunder Ancient Country, others in the Flame Wind Ancient Country.
"Master, will you attend the banquet to discuss the Dao?" Morosa asked.
"Agree to it," Luo Feng nodded. A dialogue on the Dao with a peer at the same level of strength interested him as well.
After all, like Lord Yuan Xiu, those who have achieved transcendence through Primordial Items or Primordial Bloodline are the norm in the Land of Origin. This would also be an opportunity to see the differences between him and them.

In Chu Capital, the celebrated Thirteen Star Hall, Lord Yuan Xiu was hosting the banquet here, specifically to honor Great Saint Luo He.
Previously, the thirteen emperors of the Flame Wind Ancient Country had gathered once in Chu Capital, and that time Emperor Chu himself had established the Thirteen Star Hall. After the gathering of the thirteen emperors here, the Thirteen Star Hall naturally became famous, and hosting a banquet here was also costly.
This time, everything was arranged by Marquis Chu Feng, naturally done in a grand manner.
"A dialogue between two transcendent beings of the Primal Chaos Realm! This is really rare!"
"I heard that aside from Marquis Chu Yuan, the other six first-rank marquises have all come to attend the banquet."
"Too bad we're not qualified to see it."
Some chefs preparing food quietly discussed this. They were all well-known chefs within Chu Capital, each one at the Eternal True God Level. Today, there was even a chef from the Primal Chaos Realm present, personally invited by Marquis Chu Feng.
In another building.
"Sister Yu, I went to great lengths to arrange for you to perform in front of the hall today," said a chubby man earnestly, "Today, the upper echelons of Chu Capital are gathering, six of the seven first-rank marquises are here! Even two transcendents from the Primal Chaos Realm! There are more than ten direct disciples of the Godly Kings.
If even one of them takes an interest in you and is willing to help you, you could escape your predicament."
"Marquis Chu Le, thank you so much! If it weren't for your help, I might not have survived till today," said a woman dressed in light blue.
"Alas, as a third-class noble of the Imperial Clan, I hold no power," the chubby man shook his head. "In Chu Capital, I'm even less influential than those with actual power in the Primal Chaos Realm."
There are 29 marquises in the Emperor Chu's Lineage, but only two of them possess the strength of the average Primal Chaos Realm, and Marquis Chu Le is one of them! To the Imperial Clan, those of the weakest Primal Chaos Realm are considered worthless, with no cultivation value.
Luo Feng's Blade Light of the Galaxy had the force of a limit-burning Divine Power full strike at the mid-layer of the Primal Chaos Realm, much stronger than Marquis Chu Le.
Marquis Chu Le had grown accustomed to such days, preferring pleasure and making numerous like-minded friends.
"I must remind you," the chubby man said, "the two highest-ranking guests at this banquet are from the Transcendence of the Primal Chaos Realm, one of whom is Great Saint Luo He. He really enjoys listening to music!"
The woman in light blue's eyes lit up.
"This is secret information about Great Saint Luo He that cost me quite a bit of Cosmic Sand," continued the chubby man. "Back when he was in Huyang City, he favored two Musicians who excelled in music. Your performance... if it pleases him, your status in Chu Capital will be solidified."
"Thank you, Marquis Chu Le," the woman expressed her gratitude.
"That's all I can do; the rest is up to you," the chubby man waved his hand and left.
The woman in light blue patiently waited; she was not the only performer at this banquet.
...
The banquet admitted six first-class nobles of the Imperial Clan, eight second-class nobles, nine Guest Elders, and fifteen disciples directly taught by Godly Kings, along with their attendant servants. Of course, the two most central seats in the main hall were reserved for the two transcendents from the Primal Chaos Realm.
"They're here."
"Great Saint Luo He is here."
The banquet was primarily in honor of Great Saint Luo He.
When Luo Feng arrived with Emperor Chu Yu, they naturally attracted attention from all sides. Some lesser nobles, families of first and second-class nobles, casual members of the Primal Chaos Realm, and even some servants and attendants eagerly looked forward to glimpsing the man in black.
As the man in black appeared, Emperor Chu Yu slightly lagged behind.
Whoosh!
Outside the main hall, Lord of Yuan Xiu Mansion personally appeared to greet them.
"Brother Luo He," Lord of Yuan Xiu Mansion smiled at Luo Feng.
"Brother Yuan Xiu," Luo Feng also spoke, smiling back at this transcended being of the Primal Chaos Realm, the center seemingly governed by the cosmic operational laws.
"Able to influence the cosmic operational laws?" Luo Feng inwardly sighed, something he was incapable of! Solely in terms of the 'path' realm, he was still inferior to these Transcendents of Primal Chaos Realm.
"Hmm?"
Lord of Yuan Xiu Mansion observed Luo Feng, his strongest technique being the Dark Mansion Prison cultivated within his body, capable of imprisoning everything far and wide within an instant.
"What a terrifying physical body," Lord of Yuan Xiu Mansion noted upon seeing Luo Feng, perceiving that the unassuming man in black, despite appearing ordinary, was much denser than the vast cosmical environment around him.
Immensely dense, probably very difficult to pull into the Dark Mansion!
Even without a fight, just by looking once, Lord of Yuan Xiu Mansion already made some deductions.
"His physical body is much denser than some who first entered the God King Realm from ancient existences," he thought to himself.
"Brother Luo He, please."
"Please."
Lord of Yuan Xiu Mansion and Luo Feng both remained very polite, as their interactions this time were merely about discussing the path, so both sides were courteous!
Had it been a fight, things would have been starkly different.
Together, they entered the main hall, and the numerous first and second-class nobles, Guest Elders, and disciples of Godly Kings all stood up to greet them and soon took their seats.
"Commence the banquet," Marquis Chu Feng instructed.
The banquet officially began, with courses of exquisite food, wine, and fruits presented.
Luo Feng tasted some and was surprised.
The dishes, at their weakest, matched the standards of Black Butcher of the Fire Realm Restaurant; some even far surpassed him.
A seemingly ordinary platter appeared almost like the essence of heaven and earth converging, very appetizing. After trying one, Luo Feng felt this dish's influence on the soul; it even exceeded many heavenly rarities, sharply enhancing his sensitivity to all things and significantly aiding his cultivation.

"Elder Brother Yu's culinary skills have indeed become even more impressive," Lord of Yuan Xiu Mansion commented appreciatively after tasting.
"Culinary skills reaching Primal Chaos Realm, truly remarkable," Luo Feng also knew him, one of Emperor Chu's Lineage's Guest Elders, 'Yu Jiufang,' whose strength was at the top tier of the Primal Chaos Realm; but it was his culinary skills that had reached this realm.
In the entire Chu Capital, he was the best in culinary arts!
"You flatter me too much," Yu Jiufang, who had also entered the hall, had his pride before some noble marquises but showed much humbleness before the two transcendents of the Primal Chaos Realm.
Diverse dishes, rare spirit fruits, and exquisite wines continued to be served!
Dance, music, songs...
Performers at the banquet were at least at the Eternal True God Level in their respective arts; weaker individuals watching these performances would find their spirits uncontrollably affected. Luo Feng and others, however, could enjoy them with ease and pleasure.
"Truly worthy of Chu Capital, several performers today are more skilled than even the Dream Flower Tower Master," Luo Feng remarked in admiration, thinking to himself, "In the future, I could utilize this for 'Seven Emotions of Heart Refining Technique.'
Long years of cultivation tend to make emotions increasingly indifferent, with smaller fluctuations. However, 'Seven Emotions of Heart Refining Technique' facilitates awakening of the spirit.
"The performance has ended."
As the performance by the woman in light blue concluded, she noticed the surrounding distinguished guests all smiling and chatting jovially. The two transcendents occupying the main seats seemed to be casually chatting and didn't seem particularly interested in her. Not daring to stare directly, she promptly and obediently exited once her time was up.
