Chapter 44: The Passage of Time

Chapter 44: The Passage of TimeLuo Feng was astonished, “My complete intelligence report, sold for 5,000 Cosmos Sand by Yan Feng Pavilion?”

Magili Meng said, “Yan Feng Pavilion confirmed through causality that tonight, an extremely powerful Eternal True God, Ying Cang, died in your cave mansion, Divine Lord Luo He.”

“The assassin tonight was called Ying Cang?” Luo Feng murmured. He truly didn’t recognize the name. After all, since arriving on Origin Continent through reincarnation, the only large city he had resided in was Huyang City.

In the vast and endless world outside Huyang City, Luo Feng had only purchased some basic information and naturally did not know Ying Cang.

“This is Ying Cang’s information.” Magili Meng sent a detailed report via transmission order.

Luo Feng quickly understood. This Ying Cang was on par with Magili Xiao and Blood Cloud in strength. Most importantly, his survival ability was extremely strong. He had survived a pursuit by an elite squad dispatched by the Chaos Overlord.

“Killing an assassin made the price of my intelligence soar.” Luo Feng shook his head and sighed, “If I had known he was Ying Cang, I would have taken his bounty in Yan Feng Pavilion’s Dark Hall. What a pity, I missed out on a huge sum.”

Luo Feng generally only looked at the bounties within Huyang City.

The bounties in other cities? Too numerous to count.

With Ying Cang’s death, Yan Feng Pavilion also revoked the bounty for Ying Cang. The original reward, after deducting 10%, would be refunded to the respective parties.

“It’s just some bounty, insignificant to Divine Lord Luo He,” Commander Magili Xiao said.

City Lord Huyang also spoke, “Huyang City, being a border city, is at the forefront of the conflict with Shiguo. Commander Magili Xiao and I are under great pressure, and we need to fully counter Shiguo’s forces. If Divine Lord Luo He is willing to help, you can easily earn a substantial bounty.”

“The three of you can leave now,” Luo Feng did not wish to continue talking with them.

“Won’t disturb you further.” City Lord Huyang, Magili Xiao, and Magili Meng all rose and quickly took their leave.

As the gate to the cave mansion closed, Moyu Qingyan watched in awe, “The City Lord and the Commander came together, yet the master did not greet them. When they left, the master did not see them off either, and they were not the least bit angry.”

“When interacting, the master was clearly more dominant.” Moyu Qingyan was also excited inside, “What great opportunity have I, Moyu Qingyan, stumbled upon, that I even have the hope of becoming the master’s disciple! I must strive to first comprehend the ten foundational laws!”

The unfathomable strength of his master made Moyu Qingyan even more determined.



“The Five Great Families and the forces of Shiguo, as long as they aren’t foolish, won’t dare provoke me,” Luo Feng thought. “I can now peacefully cultivate for a while.”

Luo Feng took a few steps and entered the underground hall.

In the underground hall, he released the Star Tower. At this moment, Morosa was inside one of the layers of the Star Tower digesting food, while Luo Feng went to another layer.

With a wave of his hand, Luo Feng brought out numerous spoils of this time’s battle.

“This time’s harvest is not significant,” Luo Feng glanced at the items.

“Qian Yuchong, a dignified commander of the Huyang Guards, left behind treasures worth only about 200,000 Cosmos Sand after his death. Mei Wuqian’s relics were worth about 300,000 Cosmos Sand. They weren’t very wealthy,” Luo Feng shook his head.

This was understandable. The ordinary Eternal True Gods of these large clans, although noble in status, had high expenditures. The Cosmos Sand they got from their family wasn’t much they could accumulate. In terms of individual wealth, they were not as rich as the president of the Blood Python Society.

“Ying Cang was still the wealthiest,” Luo Feng looked at the other numerous spoils, “Ying Cang’s most precious belongings were two single-type mechanical flow treasures. The value of his other portable treasures and Cosmos Sand was average. All his belongings were worth about 3.5 million Cosmos Sand.”

“Compared to his status, it was still a bit less. He probably used most of his accumulated wealth on his cultivation,” Luo Feng understood.

Bloodline cultivation consumed a vast amount of resources.

An enormous amount of resources was poured in to make the bloodline stronger, a bottomless pit. Many strong individuals poured in vast resources yet still couldn’t become Chaos Overlords.

“Two mechanical flow treasures, one is the Realm Sword, which has only the ‘Condensing Chaos Divine Power’ move, worth about 1.5 million Cosmos Sand. The other is the ‘All Realms Stealth Order’, which Ying Cang used to teleport within Huyang City. Even under my ‘Mastery of Chaos’ suppression, with this treasure, his agility still surpassed mine.”

When Luo Feng utilized his Wu Feather Wings and performed Mastery of Chaos, the power was terrifying, rendering the president of the Blood Python Society powerless.

Ying Cang, even under such suppression, had agility that surpassed Luo Feng’s. This wasn’t achieved through skill alone, but through a powerful stealth-type mechanical flow treasure.

“Mechanical flow treasures are quite helpful to me now, but their usefulness will diminish in the future,” Luo Feng understood this point.

Even if the second refinement of his Perfect Divine Body was at a lower level and his moves were crude, their power was already comparable to mechanical flow treasures.

The Ziyu Hun was also pierced through by one strike from Luo Feng.

“As my level rises, the power of my Perfect Divine Body will increase. If I undergo a third refinement, there will be a significant increase. The mechanical flow treasures’ help will be even less valuable.”

The Perfect Divine Body and his will were his true reliance.

Luo Feng closed his eyes, began to sense the tangible chaos laws in the nearby ‘Chaos Ruins’, and immersed himself in cultivation.

All forces in Huyang City believed that the Five Great Families would not give up and wanted to see the upcoming conflict between them and Divine Lord Luo He.

But the result was… the Five Great Families chickened out!

At first, all forces thought the Five Great Families were secretly hiring experts and needed time to get to Huyang City. But as time passed, everyone understood.

As for the news that ‘Ying Cang was killed by Divine Lord Luo He,’ since it was intelligence worth 5,000 Cosmos Sand, very few forces purchased it, and they would not spread it.

Why should other families easily obtain intelligence that they themselves had paid a great price for?

As time passed, the news that ‘Divine Lord Luo He killed Ying Cang’ was known only by the highest tiers of Huyang City’s forces, and these forces naturally became more fearful of Luo Feng.



Time in cultivation flowed like water, and unknowingly, twenty-six eras had passed.

Huyang City, within a dark hall.

A white-robed figure wearing a red mask stood there, looking at a blood-colored flame in mid-air, which emitted a dark and calamitous aura.

“Lord Hou,” the white-robed figure respectfully saluted.

“Blood Cloud, you have been in Huyang City for quite some time,” a voice came from the blood-colored flame, “but until now, you haven’t completed the task I assigned you.”

Divine Lord Blood Cloud replied respectfully, “Lord Hou, I dare not slack off. I have tried everything to trace the complete formation diagram of ‘Huyang City.’ However, the city’s formation has been repaired and supplemented through generations, making it vast and complex. The formation masters who personally conducted the repairs only know the small area they were responsible for and can’t understand the entire formation.”

“I only want results,” the voice from the blood-colored flame was cold, “I give you one era, and you must obtain the complete formation diagram of Huyang City. I will send two experts to assist you. If you still fail within one era, return. I will make other arrangements for the matters in Huyang City.”

Divine Lord Blood Cloud was shocked.

Failing within one era, he would no longer be responsible for Huyang City?

As the leader of Shiguo’s forces in Huyang City, although it was quite dangerous, Shiguo would continuously provide him with resources. Many of these resources ended up in Divine Lord Blood Cloud’s hands.

Divine Lord Blood Cloud, who had the desire to become a Chaos Overlord, naturally needed vast resources.

If he were recalled and the mission failed, his future resource acquisition would be greatly reduced.

“Lord Hou, I will risk my life to obtain the complete formation diagram of Huyang City within one era,” Divine Lord Blood Cloud said respectfully.

“I have arranged helpers for you and didn’t skimp on resources. I hope you won’t disappoint me again this time!” The voice from the blood-colored flame was icy and eventually extinguished quietly.

Only then did the respectful Divine Lord Blood Cloud relax.

No matter how powerful he was, he did not dare to show any disrespect before Lord Hou, who had become a Chaos Overlord through endless years. After all, even the mightiest Eternal True God could be easily crushed by such an ancient Chaos Overlord.

“Lord Hou is running out of patience,” Divine Lord Blood Cloud thought, “He must be planning something big.”

“I wonder how strong the two helpers sent by Lord Hou will be,” Divine Lord Blood Cloud was patient, planning to wait for the arrival of the two powerful helpers before deciding on a plan to obtain the formation diagram of

Huyang City, “Within one era, even if I can’t get the complete formation diagram, I must achieve enough merit. Otherwise, Lord Hou won’t spare me!”

Having received vast resources, he naturally had to earn them.



Snow was falling heavily, turning the world into a white expanse.

The heavy snow in Huyang City was extremely cold, each snowflake as crystalline as a gem.

Luo Feng sat on the mountaintop of his cave mansion, catching falling snowflakes with his hand. Each snowflake’s structure was incredibly intricate, like a formation diagram.

“Comprehending laws is becoming increasingly slow,” Luo Feng thought, “It has been twenty-seven eras since I arrived on Origin Continent. My progress was rapid initially, but now it is much slower.”

This was normal too. In terms of realm, he was already at the peak of the Eternal True God level.

Integrating numerous scattered comprehensions into a complete ‘chaos law’ was not an easy task.

“Mm?” Luo Feng looked down the mountain and saw his servant, Moyu Qingyan, also deep in thought.

“You silly boy, is comprehending the laws so difficult? To this day, you haven’t comprehended the ten foundational laws,” Morosa said while gnawing on meat.

Moyu Qingyan couldn’t help but retort, “Divine Lord Morosa, I have comprehended eight of the foundational laws in just over twenty eras, which is already fast. My father says my comprehension speed is quite good.”

“Too slow! With my guidance, and you still haven’t comprehended the ten foundational laws, you are just dumb,” Morosa said disdainfully, “Comprehending the laws is very simple. You must understand that these laws are not isolated; they are interconnected.”

“It is precisely the combination of different laws that leads to the operation of all things,” Morosa said, “I told you long ago to consider their interconnections and think about their essence.”

“I don’t understand,” Moyu Qingyan shook his head.

“Alas, your eldest and third siblings in the Moyu family have both become Void True Gods. Only you are still a True God. You must put in more effort. Your weakness is embarrassing to me!” Morosa shook his head, “Whether it was the master or me, we both cultivated faster than you back then!”

Moyu Qingyan remained silent. He wanted Morosa’s guidance, so he naturally didn’t dare to talk back and had to find ways to appease him.

Whoosh!

Luo Feng descended nearby.

“Master,” Morosa and Moyu Qingyan immediately stood up.

“Follow me out for a trip,” Luo Feng ordered.
