Swallowed Star

“Starting from the laws, use the simplest and most general way to explain!”

“Staring from an undying, one will start by learning certain fundamental laws like gold laws, wind laws, and many more. After becoming a universe knight, one will shift to studying laws like time laws and space laws…”

“Actually, the path of the laws was to consistently climb up from a lowest, most minute point, and the ultimate target is for the ten fundamental laws of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, time, and space to be completely unified. And also, they must all be combined into a unified law of chaos.”

The moment Luo Feng gave this explanation, everyone revealed shocked expressions on the spot. Even Huge Axe Creator was so taken aback he rose to his feet.

Opposite Huge Axe Creator’s host seat, another host seat appeared out of nowhere. Along with it, a white-robed figure appeared.

“Did you mention the Law of Chaos?” said the white-robed man. He stared at Luo Feng, and in his eyes, there was a kind of light that no one had seen before.

“Teacher Origin!” Huge Axe Creator was shocked.

“Teacher.”

Primal Chaos City Leader, Darkness, and Ice Mountain were all surprised and delighted. They immediately bowed respectfully to greet him. Others like Peng Gong Master, Qing Dong Master, Void Gold Master, Long Yan Master, and Deserted Mirror Master were excited beyond words as they shouted, “Teacher Origin!”

Luo Feng was also shocked to see this white-robed man before him. He… was the legendary Teacher Origin?

Judging by his appearance alone, Teacher Origin looked like any ordinary man. He looked like a perfect introvert with the perfect innate character. He gave people around him a sense of comfort, like the refreshing spring breeze. He was on a totally different scale compared to the other great beings.

“Luo Feng, did you say Law of Chaos?” Teacher Origin asked persistently.

“Yes.” Luo Feng replied without delay. “Everything takes form because of the Law of Chaos, and the ultimate goal is for everything to return to the origin in order to comprehend the ultimate Law of Chaos. However, if we do manage to comprehend the Law of Chaos, then the power we gain will be even more formidable than that of Duan Dong River’s. The Law of Chaos, in other words, is the ultimate law. Gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, time, and space are the ten fundamental laws! We can use them to compose various combinations like the combination of gold and space to form the golden space path. Or the combination of wood and space to form the wooden space path! We can even form the Eight Beast Gods path, whereby the Eight Beast Gods path can also form various combinations among themselves. Of course, the combination of gold and time would be the golden time path, and that of fire and time would form the fire time path…”

As Luo Feng was speaking, Huge Axe could not help interrupting with his questions. “Gold, wood, water, fire, and earth are the five main elements. Do they not belong to the space type? How can they form a complete combination with time?”

“Everything is possible,” Luo Feng replied with a smile. “Because everything is formed amidst chaos, everything is possible…There are three laws that can be possibly combined or even four laws. Or maybe as many as five laws can be combined…” Luo Feng shook his head, then continued, “Of course… it is just like how some of the basic materials found on mineral planets can be used to form numerous universe planet ships.

“The ten fundamental laws will ultimately become the Law of Chaos. The mysteries, experiences, techniques, and hardships involved can get unbelievably trying. Burying one’s head or trying one’s luck will not equate to success. Anyone from the ancient civilization will know that the ten fundamental laws will ultimately become the Law of Chaos! Even for the pulse of Duan Dong River, when it has chosen the absolute heir who is extremely gifted and provides limitless guidance to help him in his cultivation, there is a possibility that this heir may be able to attain mastery of the Law of Chaos, but such cases were very rare.”

Luo Feng had seen the core inheritance. How the True God stage might be cultivated thereafter, and how many levels it was divided into, no one knew. However, from some things that were occasionally said about it, one could roughly come up with some information. For instance, a memory stone from the core inheritance once said that the number of people from the pulse of Duan Dong River who had mastered the Laws of Chaos was a miserable few.

What did this prove? One: not only one! Two: The most powerful three generations of ancestors from the pulse of Duan Dong River stood at the pinnacle of that ancient civilization. They were the strongest beings of the pulse of Duan Dong River, and since there was not one but three of them, he had obviously surpassed the level of mastering the Law of Chaos.

Luo Feng merely gave a short talk about the Law of Chaos since he knew very little about it. He only knew about the process of progressing from an undying to reach the ultimate limit of a universe supreme master (true god). Thereafter, Luo Feng continued to analyze the path of the laws on an even deeper level.

Everyone present, including Huge Axe, listened exceptionally carefully.

The white-robed Teacher Origin only looked on, observing everything happening without saying much. What attracted his attention was merely the information on the Law of Chaos. Nothing else mattered to him. Since he had been suppressed for such an endless time, if he were to head out, he needed full confidence in the fact that he could transcend a reincarnation. And if he dared to say he had full confidence, then naturally, he must have broken through the true god stage and reached another level that was beyond that of a universe supreme master.

This was why what Luo Feng was talking about was something new—and slightly interesting to him. What was truly helpful to him was the part mentioned earlier—that the ultimate target was to master the Law of Chaos. Earlier, Teacher Origin was still at a loss as to where he should start. Now, he had a direction. He knew he should follow this path and advance into the Law of Chaos.

Teacher Origin was watching everything happening before him. The white-robed Luo Feng was preaching. The other universe masters were listening intently.

The scene tugged at Teacher Origin’s heartstrings as he reminisced, “A long, long time ago, I also used to preach, just like what I am seeing now. I am the one who brought the human race up to ranks of a pinnacle race and made possible the first major turning point for our destiny. And this Luo Feng. He brings with him the wisdom of the entire ancient civilization, and he will be the one to bring about the second major turning point for my human race! And this time around, the change will be much more impactful and far-reaching.”

He understood that with Luo Feng teaching all he had learned, the human race would gradually undergo transformation. The number of universe knights would consistently increase, and there would be more and more universe masters emerging. Even the number of universe supreme masters would gradually increase. After this reincarnation era came to an end, the human race could become the greatest power in the entire Universe Ocean! Even stronger than the two holy lands!

“Humans…”

“Destiny…”

“Turning point…”

Teacher Origin listened silently. Although he was not sure whether he could possibly survive the suppression and gain his freedom, he still could see that in the future, the human race was going to be strong beyond words. Luo Feng’s preaching… Its influence would be pervasive.

Luo Feng started out with using layman’s terms to give a brief overview, then proceeded talking about some major guiding theories at great length; thereafter, he started to give a thorough elaboration of the various difficulties involved within each theory and how they should try to achieve breakthroughs and to become a universe supreme master from a universe master.

The topic of guiding theories alone took Luo Feng more than three months to complete sharing. Starting from the path of the laws, it took up almost every minute of his time to complete whatever he needed to say. If he were to start from his godly power, it would only take him half a day.

Because it was so difficult, few in the ancient civilization would want to begin their cultivation with godly power. Therefore, information related to this area was naturally a small amount. Probably only half a day’s time was required.

“These are all guiding theories, guiding thoughts.” Luo Feng laughed. “That is why it does not take me long to finish talking about them! When I return from the Universe Boat, I will bring back more detailed information about secret techniques of the inheritance. For example, information on combat methods. It is just that, all these techniques are boundless. Verbal sharing alone isn’t enough. Perhaps I could use my memory to show you all, but that would take far too long.”

Luo Feng had depended on the memory stones to infuse a large amount of memories into his mind, and that process alone took ages. Such a vast and powerful secret technique… Even thousands of eras spent preaching about it would never be considered enough time!

“Similar to the law of combined attacks of the Divine Eye Clan?”

“Some unique secret techniques?”

“The combat secret technique of a universe supreme master?”

Everyone was filled with eagerness to know more.

Luo Feng gave a hearty laugh and said, “A universe supreme master? From an undying to the ultimate limit of a universe supreme master, such a secret technique and various combat secret techniques… Even if there are thousands and millions of them, they mean nothing much because there are simply too many.”

There were countless manuals. Indeed, a deluge of them.

Previously, in the basic inheritance he accepted during the selection of candidates, Luo Feng had seen the 360 blade techniques. Now that he had become the master of a space of inheritance, among those 100 million inheritance stones, there were some that could contain thousands of different techniques within them. Those the pulse of Duan Dong River had collected were simply too numerous to keep track of.

“Of course, various manuals were only for reference purposes—to teach us all about the techniques universe supreme masters had,” said Luo Feng. “The more secret techniques you expose yourself to, perhaps you may develop an interest for something. The guiding theories and secret techniques are provided for reference. Anything more than these, you can only depend on yourselves. After all, this is a huge threshold! The difficulty levels of becoming a universe knight and a universe master are nothing compared to this. This is much tougher… External supplementary aid aside, this is entirely self-dependent.”

Everyone fell into deep thought, even Primal Chaos City Leader. It had been an impactful three months for them, and they all knew they should go about trying their best. But whether they could eventually succeed or not depended on themselves.

After all, knowing and being able to achieve something, were two matters exclusive of one another.

Luo Feng heaved a sigh of relief. “Finally, my lesson is done.” He shook his head helplessly. “I had not expected Huge Axe Creator to be such a difficult character to deal with. Sharing my teachings with the other teachers about how they can become universe supreme masters took me slightly more than three months at most. But sharing what I knew with Huge Axe about how to cultivate to the ultimate limit of a universe supreme master… actually took twelve years.”

Sharing his knowledge with Primal Chaos City Leader and Darkness Master, Luo Feng was burning with passion and filled with hope for the future of the human race.

On the other hand, while sharing with Huge Axe, he had started out with excitement, yet, toward the end, simply found it toilsome.

“I shall continue to study, then.”

Luo Feng continued to bury his head in comprehending right away. What he had accepted was the foundation of an entire ancient civilization. How extensive was that? Although everything was in his memory, studying it all certainly required a long time. Thus, Luo Feng was forced to make choices regarding what he should or should not comprehend.

He would mainly focus on two areas: namely, close-range combat blade techniques and spiritual weapons.

******

It had been 9,106 years since Luo Feng had become an heir.

“The studies have come to an end.” Luo Feng opened his eyes. “I may have acquired an immeasurable amount of knowledge, but it does not mean that the more I learn, the better my power becomes! I still must move on to cultivating the knowledge I have acquired.”

Knowledge alone was useless! Knowing how to use the knowledge was crucial!

The three core sets of lost knowledge of the pulse of Duan Dong River were Duan Mie—which literally meant “annihilation”—Dong Hua, and Undying River. They constituted the knowledge he had acquired but had yet to learn how to use.

He had given himself ample time to devise paths of advancement regarding his blade technique, spiritual weapons, and others. The paths that he would take… He already had them in place, yet not a single step was made.

“‘Annihilation’ is the most powerful body of knowledge for combat. It can unleash an incredible power in an instant. For now, even if I rely on the blade technique at the level of a universe supreme master, I am still weak in terms of godly power—maybe only at the fifth-tiered stage. If I were to make use of Annihilation, the body of lost knowledge created by three generations of ancestors… Tsk, tsk. It’s a hefty price to pay. If I use this move, the consumption of my godly body is going to be massive.”

“Dong Hua is pretty important to me. As for Undying River, there is no pressing need for it now. I have another body now, so there is no need for the cultivation of Undying River. When I have become a universe supreme master and all my bodies combine into one… When I only have one original body, then I will need to cultivate Undying River.”

Luo Feng put Undying River aside for the time being and started his cultivation of Annihilation and Dong Hua.
