Chapter 227: Morosa’s Food
After Moyu Qingyan’s bloodline transformation, he still needed divine body transformation and divine body growth.
During his seclusion, the Blade River Sect also began the largest disciple recruitment since its establishment. The “disciple preliminary selection” was conducted simultaneously in every major city across the 155 Chaos States under the Blade River Sect’s command.
As long as one passed the preliminary selection, they became an ordinary disciple of the Blade River Sect.
Afterwards, these disciples would all be sent to Huyang City, where the sect headquarters would conduct stricter selections to choose the more elite “core disciples.” Only the core disciples had the qualification to cultivate at the headquarters in Huyang City, while the vast number of ordinary disciples cultivated at branch divisions.
Above the core disciples, there would be a very rare, dazzling few geniuses, who had the hope of becoming disciples under the Sect Master, the “Divine King Luo He,” as his registered disciples.
As for becoming Divine King Luo He’s personal disciple?
That depended on fate!
Since the founding of the Blade River Sect, Divine King Luo He had accepted only two personal disciples in total. One was “Senior Brother Moyu Qingyan,” who had followed him ever since Luo He was still at the Eternal True God-level. The other was “Second Senior Brother Xinyu,” chosen when the Blade River Sect was first established.
……
Blade River Sect, main hall at the headquarters.Sect Master Luo Feng sat high above the grand hall, with Yuan, Morosa, Xinyu, and Divine King Liuyu seated to his left and right. Divine King Liuyu was currently a guest elder of the Blade River Sect.
In the hall, there were as many as thirty-two registered disciples. These registered disciples were essentially the entire sect’s upper echelon! Each registered disciple held great authority, being responsible for numerous sect affairs.
“Qingyan.” Luo Feng sat high above the grand hall, smiling as he looked at his eldest disciple.
Moyu Qingyan was extremely moved.
His master was too powerful, and thus the pressure on him as a disciple was immense.
Especially with such a large group of registered disciples of outstanding talent, each of them dreamed of becoming the next to follow after “Second Senior Brother Xinyu” in stepping into the Chaos Realm. The pressure Moyu Qingyan felt as senior brother within the sect was imaginable.
“From today onward, you are the fourth elder of my Blade River Sect. I grant you a set of secret treasures, one hundred billion Cosmos Sand, and the Ten Auxiliary Cultivation Treasures.” Luo Feng smiled and with a wave of his hand, bestowed an entire set of Chaos Realm supreme-grade weapon secret treasures, along with one Cyan Jade Bottle and one Black Jade Bottle.
The treasures given to the eldest and second disciples were equal in value, but of different types.
What was given to Second Disciple Xinyu focused mainly on cultivation assistance, since Xinyu had immense potential and the hope of becoming a Divine King.
What was given to Eldest Disciple Moyu Qingyan focused instead on enhancing strength and protection. After all, having stepped into the Chaos Realm through the bloodline path, Luo Feng no longer expected him to become a Divine King. ṛáNỘʙĚṦ
“Thank you, Master.” Moyu Qingyan respectfully accepted.
“The Master is still stingy. What he gave Qingyan and what he gave Xinyu were of equal value.” Morosa sat to the side, watching, and thought inwardly, “But the treasures I gave Qingyan were far more than the Master’s.”
Now, the 155 territories under the Blade River Sect’s control were primarily managed by Morosa and Yuan as the core figures. Naturally, they also received a vast share of resources and benefits—no less than what Divine Kings in Shiguo once had.
Luo Feng treated his disciples equally.
But Morosa was completely biased towards Moyu Qingyan.
When the celebration came to an end—
“Congratulations, Senior Brother.”
“Senior Brother.”
The registered disciples all came to congratulate Moyu Qingyan. They were all aware that Senior Brother held a special place in the eyes of the sect’s upper echelons, for he had followed the Master far earlier than anyone else.
……
After the celebration dispersed, Morosa sought out Luo Feng.
“Master, the food is gone.” Morosa looked at Luo Feng. “When can I have some powerful food? I also want to break through sooner.”
“Powerful food isn’t so easy to find.” Luo Feng laughed. “I’m working on it.”
Morosa obediently nodded.
He too yearned to advance further, to completely reach the Ultimate Realm! By then, he could act freely. As for now? According to Luo Feng’s orders, he was absolutely forbidden from using his Realm Beast power in the outside world before reaching the Ultimate Realm.
“You are still too weak right now. Once exposed, the trouble would be enormous.” Luo Feng said. “But after you break through, there will be many things we can do.”
A perfected Ultimate Realm that mastered a complete Origin Path possessed means far more profound than those of Emperors and Monarchs.
For example, in the aspect of “isolating causality,” once the Origin Path reached perfection, one could completely sever causality! By then, when acting, even the two Ancient Kingdoms would find it a hundredfold, a thousandfold harder to trace his movements.
Stealth, escape, curses, coordinated combat… in every aspect, Morosa could be of great help to him.
“Ever since I came to the Origin Continent, I have always endured.” Morosa said.
“Hahaha…” Luo Feng chuckled.
After Luo Feng seized the territory of Shiguo, the first gathering of the Wheel Reincarnation Pavilion took place.
“Hahaha, Luo He’s talent is truly remarkable! Now, within our Wheel Reincarnation Pavilion, Luo He’s strength ranks only below Queen Fengdu and the Great Earth Divine King.” Master Great Freedom laughed.
Queen Fengdu sat silently with a smile. Back when Luo Feng was still only at the Chaos Realm, she had already invited him to join. Time had proven her vision!
“Yes, unknowingly, he has even surpassed me.” Emperor Guixu sighed. “This is the difference in talent.”
“I merely have more clones.” Luo Feng said quickly.
“Clone techniques are already extraordinary means.” Divine King Wuxin said from the side. “If I or Guixu also had several powerful clones, each clone able to sustain the power of the original body, the deterrent would be completely different. Even the two Ancient Kingdoms wouldn’t dare press us too much.”
“That’s right. At Luo He’s level, even if he acted domineeringly, the two Ancient Kingdoms wouldn’t easily make a move.” The Blackfire Demon Lord agreed.
Among the members of the Wheel Reincarnation Pavilion, aside from “Divine King Yuntian,” who was still only at the First Stage of the Divine King Realm—
All others, Master Great Freedom, Blackfire Demon Lord, King Tiandu, Emperor Guixu, and Divine King Wuxin, had all reached the peak of the Second Stage of the Divine King Realm! Yet none of them had the ability to face Emperors or Monarchs head-on.
But figures like the “Ark Master” of the Time-Space Ark, Puxin, and the widely acknowledged Divine King Luo He—though their power was also at the peak of the Second Stage of the Divine King Realm—possessed the ability to contend with Emperors!
The Ark Master was the most accomplished cultivator of the “Time Path” on the Origin Continent. He could stand still and let Emperors and Monarchs attack. Even if his present body perished, his future body or past body could repair the present. The Ark Master bore enmity with the Ruler of the Myriad Realms, yet even that ruler, who had mastered a complete Origin Path, could do nothing to him.
Puxin was even more mysterious. Each time he appeared, it was with a mental body! Only soul-type and mental will-type means could harm him. Even Emperors and Monarchs were powerless against him.
As for Luo Feng, he had many clones, and each clone’s physical body was incredibly resilient! His body felt even tougher than many “Second Stage Divine King Primordial Bloodline creatures,” strong enough to rival one of the Lords of the Destruction Legion! Just one clone was enough to give Emperors and Monarchs headaches—let alone when Luo Feng’s number of clones was uncertain!
The Ark Master, Puxin, Luo He—such overwhelming survivability truly made the other peak Second Stage Divine Kings envious.
“One of Luo He’s clones can rival a Lord of the Destruction Legion. If seven or eight of his clones worked together, wouldn’t that rival the entire Destruction Legion?” Master Great Freedom exclaimed.
“This is the power of cultivating multiple Origin Paths.” The Great Earth Divine King said. “Luo He cultivates the three Origin Paths of Life, Matter, and Destruction. Each has reached the Second Stage of the Divine King Realm. Complementing each other, his means are naturally stronger. He is the only one on the Origin Continent who has reached the Second Stage of the Divine King Realm in three Origin Paths.”
“We who cultivate only one Origin Path are indeed far behind.” The Blackfire Demon Lord sighed.
“One path alone—if you reach the Ultimate Realm—you would still be formidable.” Divine King Wuxin laughed.
Envy was useless.
Generally, Divine Kings focused on a single Origin Path. The more paths one cultivated, the harder it was.
Those who could achieve the Second Stage of the Divine King Realm in two Origin Paths were already extremely rare on the Origin Continent!
As for three Origin Paths all reaching the Second Stage of the Divine King Realm? None existed at present.
Luo Feng indeed cultivated three Origin Paths: Life, Destruction, and Life-and-Death. But his Life-and-Death Path had not yet reached the Second Stage of the Divine King Realm.
During the gathering, everyone chatted casually.
Divine King Yuntian was the weakest present. She too longed for a breakthrough. Given the uniqueness of her Primordial Bloodline, if she could step into the Second Stage of the Divine King Realm, her deterrence would skyrocket to terrifying heights.
“When will I become a Second Stage Divine King? All eight other members of the Wheel Reincarnation Pavilion are already at the Second Stage.” Divine King Yuntian thought.
“Brother Blackfire, is there any way to acquire a complete corpse of a Second Stage Divine King Primordial Bloodline?” Luo Feng asked the Blackfire Demon Lord.
“A complete corpse?” The Blackfire Demon Lord looked at Luo Feng. “That’s difficult! Even in the Ancient Thunder Kingdom, what they usually sell to outsiders is only a single refined portion of the Primordial Bloodline. At most, they might sell some incomplete corpses.”
“Because they refine only occasionally, even the incomplete corpses available for sale are scarce. You must wait for the right opportunity.” The Blackfire Demon Lord explained. “As for complete corpses? I’ve never heard of them being sold.”
Luo Feng nodded.
“Complete corpses have too many uses.” The Blackfire Demon Lord continued. “For example, refining into powerful puppets, feeding to Realm Beasts, or using for possession… all pose too great a threat to the two Ancient Kingdoms. If anyone traded for one with them, the Ancient Kingdoms would certainly investigate, probing into the buyer’s motives.”
Luo Feng understood.
Incomplete corpses were just remnants left after refining out the bloodline. Waiting for enough to gather the “quantity” Morosa needed to transform into the Ultimate Realm could take an extremely long time.
As for complete corpses… the risks involved were immense.
“To let Morosa break through to the Ultimate Realm is truly difficult.” Luo Feng sighed inwardly. “If it were only by devouring heaven-and-earth energy, pure energy, it would require endlessly long ages.”
Perhaps because a peak Realm Beast existed, the two Ancient Kingdoms were especially cautious in this regard.
The Blackfire Demon Lord looked at Luo Feng.
For someone of Luo He’s strength to still seek complete Primordial Bloodline corpses?
“A complete corpse of a Second Stage Divine King Primordial Bloodline—impossible.” The Blackfire Demon Lord said quietly. “But stronger incomplete corpses of Primordial Bloodlines, even remnants of Primordial Lifeforms that have transcended the Caged World… those are possible.”
Luo Feng was startled.
“What method?” Luo Feng could hardly believe it.
“Three foreign races.” The Blackfire Demon Lord said quietly. “The two Ancient Kingdoms raised large numbers of Primordial Bloodline creatures, brought back by the two Ancestors from outside. Those three foreign race experts can likewise bring back small remnants of Primordial Lifeforms.”
