Swallowed Star 2: Origin Continent

Chapter 102: Making a Move

After cultivating the Transformation Technique, Luo Feng’s divine body became like the most terrifying weapon. His fingers were incomparably sharp and contained boundless power, effortlessly piercing into the chest of the Snow Realm Envoy.

“Hmm?” Luo Feng, who had emerged from the void, was somewhat surprised. “Is this Snow Realm Envoy so fragile?”

Mechanical secret treasures like the Heart Demon Yuan, Heart Shadow Demon General, and the Snow Realm Envoy were widely reputed to rival Chaos-level weapon secret treasures, known for their extreme toughness. However, Luo Feng’s hand had just pierced through it, allowing him to confirm the true defensive capability of the Snow Realm Envoy.

“The material of this Snow Realm Envoy is among the lowest quality even within Chaos-level weapon secret treasures. Moreover, because it’s a mechanical secret treasure, a mechanical combination, its stability is somewhat lacking.” When Luo Feng pierced through it, he thoroughly confirmed the reality of the Snow Realm Envoy. “An Eternal True God definitely can’t break through this Snow Realm Envoy, but a slightly stronger Chaos-level being could damage it.”

“The material is slightly inferior, and the stability is slightly lacking. However, the manufacturing process is quite complex, allowing a group of weaklings to unleash tremendous power. A single Snow Realm Envoy is worth about the same as an ordinary Chaos-level weapon secret treasure, approximately 2 billion Cosmos Sand.” Luo Feng’s master, Zuo Shan Ke, had provided him with detailed intelligence, making Luo Feng’s valuation of mechanical secret treasures and weapons quite accurate.

After all, his master used to sell these things.

“Buzz.”

As Luo Feng’s finger pierced into the chest of the Snow Realm Envoy, he immediately sensed all the drivers inside the Snow Realm Envoy.

One commander, thirty-six supporting Eternal True Gods, and forty-nine thousand Void True Gods—all were now consumed by endless fear.

“A thick scent of blood.” Luo Feng could sense the bloodthirsty aura deep within the souls of the commander, Liu Yin Yan, and the thirty-six Eternal True Gods. They had all entered under the tutelage of the Snow Realm Ancestor and learned the Blood lineage techniques.

As for the forty-nine thousand Void True Gods, they didn’t have much of a bloodthirsty aura; they were not yet qualified to learn the Divine King-level inheritance.

After all, cultivation required the consumption of a large amount of blood food. The consumption by those at the Chaos level and numerous Eternal True Gods was already enormous, not enough to go around. Naturally, the use of blood food was prohibited for Void True Gods. In desperate situations, some lower-level offenders were even turned into blood food.

“Being born in the Snow Realm is indeed your misfortune.” Luo Feng harbored no intention to kill those forty-nine thousand Void True Gods.

He knew well how pitiable the mid and lower levels in the Snow Realm were.

Born in that territory, there was no escape.

“Buzz!”

Luo Feng’s thoughts moved quickly. As his hand pierced into the chest of the Snow Realm Envoy, his palm directly grasped the commander, Liu Yin Yan, while an invisible wave swept through the thirty-six supporting Eternal True Gods, killing each one.

Simultaneously, he expelled all forty-nine thousand Void True Gods, sending them tumbling into the distance.

“Pierce the chest, damage a part of the chest component, and it can still be used after repairs. It can be sold for a good price.” Luo Feng put away the Snow Realm Envoy. After all, he was poor, and a Snow Realm Envoy worth about 2 billion Cosmos Sand was something he had to treasure.

Luo Feng then looked at the blood-robed youth, Liu Yin Yan, held in his palm.

Liu Yin Yan, grasped in Luo Feng’s hand, looked up and saw the familiar black-robed man. At this moment, Luo Feng coldly stared at the blood-robed youth, as if he were looking at a filthy piece of trash.

“Luo He?” Liu Yin Yan couldn’t believe it. “You… you broke through to the Chaos level?”

Piercing the Snow Realm Envoy with just one hand was definitely not something an Eternal True God could do.

…

Luo Feng stood in the sky above the Feng Yi District, holding Liu Yin Yan in his palm. Naturally, this scene was seen by everyone.

“Divine Lord Luo He, he… he became Chaos level?” In the City Lord’s Mansion, General Yue Wu, General Yong Hu, and other Eternal True Gods were all shocked. So many Eternal True Gods longed to take that step.

Even General Yue Wu, widely acknowledged to be capable of reaching the Chaos level in the future, didn’t know when that would happen.

Now, the Divine Lord Luo He, whom they thought they knew well, had truly reached the Chaos level.

“He’s actually Chaos level.” The Dream Flower Pavilion Master murmured to himself.

“Was he Chaos level all along, or did he just recently break through?” The City Lord of Huyang City also pondered quietly.

“My master is Chaos level?” Moyu Qingyan was somewhat dazed, and beside him, Morosa glanced at him with a smile.

…

The hundreds of billions of lives in the Feng Yi District were the most excited. They looked at the scene in the sky, where Luo Feng held Liu Yin Yan with one hand, feeling both grateful and thrilled.

“We survived.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“My father, mother, wife, and all my children survived. My fellow disciples, my clan… all survived.” The various clans living in the Feng Yi District, including some small sects and minor powers, all survived.

“That is Divine Lord Luo He.”

Most of the billions of lives didn’t recognize Luo Feng. However, some Void True Gods, who knew some information, recognized Luo Feng at a glance.

“It was Divine Lord Luo He who saved my entire clan.”

Many cultivators were filled with gratitude.

…

“That Young Master Yan has been captured, the thirty-six Eternal True Gods are all dead, and I’m free?” The forty-nine thousand Void True Gods who had fallen in all directions had different thoughts.

Born in the Snow Realm’s territory, they had lost their freedom of choice from birth and had to serve the massive force known as the ‘Snow Realm.’

Some failures even became blood food.

“Leave here, and I’ll never return to the Snow Realm.” Some Void True Gods silently left.

“With the Snow Realm Envoy taken, how will we return to the Snow Realm?” Some loyal Void True Gods still thought about returning to the Snow Realm. However, this was Yuguo, far too distant from the Snow Realm.

They could only hope that the Snow Realm would come to retrieve them, or that Marquis Liu Yin would find a way to send them back.

“We, the weak, the Snow Realm probably won’t care about us, will they? I’ve fought so hard, and now? I can’t return?”

“My clan has only a few left alive, this grudge, I will definitely avenge it.”

The forty-nine thousand Void True Gods had various thoughts.

As the old devil known as the ‘Snow Realm Ancestor,’ whose sins ranked in the top ten across the entire Origin Continent, the rule of his territory was extremely brutal. The number of people who hated the Snow Realm Ancestor was countless.

But the Snow Realm Ancestor didn’t care. As long as his disciples reached the Eternal True God level, he would grant them a drop of blood, teaching them the Blood lineage inheritance.

Once they absorbed that drop of blood, they would naturally be loyal, never to betray.

Thus, in the Snow Realm, while there might be much resentment and hatred at the lower levels, the middle and upper levels were incredibly loyal.

******

With a casual move, Luo Feng changed the fate of forty-nine thousand Void True Gods and hundreds of billions of lives in the Feng Yi District.

“Unexpectedly, Luo He has already reached the Chaos level.” In the Yan Feng Pavilion, Di Chu Yu and the Deputy Pavilion Master watched this scene, feeling very pleased.

“I can take Luo He back to the Ancient Flame Kingdom with me.” Di Chu Yu thought.

Di Chu Yu then sent a distant message, “Luo He, you and I have both entered the Chaos level, so once this matter is settled, we can return to the Ancient Flame Kingdom. By the way, do not kill Liu Yin Yan! If you publicly kill Liu Yin Yan while the two armies are facing off… Marquis Liu Yin, for the sake of face, will definitely come after you.”

…

Luo Feng heard Di Chu Yu’s message and looked at Liu Yin Yan in his palm.

Knowing Marquis Liu Yin’s nature, with so many children, losing one Liu Yin Yan… Marquis Liu Yin wouldn’t be too heartbroken! But if, during a standoff between two armies, a Chaos-level being like himself made a move, Marquis Liu Yin wouldn’t tolerate it, if only for the sake of appearances!

“Divine Lord Luo He, my father is Marquis Liu Yin, and my master is the Snow Realm Ancestor. I beg your forgiveness for my previous disrespect, please spare my insignificant life.” Liu Yin Yan pleaded.

He guessed that a newly ascended Chaos-level being would likely not dare to publicly kill him.

But he didn’t dare gamble on it!

After spending so much time in the Snow Realm, he had seen plenty of madmen. The cultivators of the Snow Realm acted with utter disregard, killing as they pleased!

Background? Only if it mattered, would it be of any use.

“Luo He, you are not yet a guest official of the Ancient Flame Kingdom. Even if you become one… the Ancient Flame Kingdom won’t intervene in the disputes of its guest officials. After all, many Divine Kings from border nations are guest officials of the Ancient Flame Kingdom. They frequently fight amongst themselves, and the Ancient Flame Kingdom doesn’t interfere.” Di Chu Yu sensed something was wrong and quickly sent a message, “Even the disciples of the emperors

, fighting outside, have died quite a few times! As long as it’s a battle between equals, the Ancient Flame Kingdom won’t interfere.”

“If you kill Liu Yin Yan, Marquis Liu Yin will be furious! While he wouldn’t dare touch me because I’m part of the royal family of the Ancient Flame Kingdom, I wouldn’t be able to stop him either!”

Di Chu Yu sent a message of persuasion.

He thought highly of Luo Feng, who was loyal and hated evil. But precisely because of his hatred for evil, Di Chu Yu worried that Luo Feng might act impulsively and kill Liu Yin Yan.

“He instantly killed thirty-six Eternal True Gods but only captured Liu Yin Yan alive.” The Deputy Pavilion Master beside him said, “This Luo He, he shouldn’t be a reckless person.”

“I advised him, but he didn’t agree to spare Liu Yin Yan. I still feel something is off.” Di Chu Yu said, “It’s not worth risking his life for a mere Eternal True God.”

…

While Di Chu Yu tried to persuade him, Jiugang Marquis, who was also in the City Lord’s Mansion, was similarly advising through a message, “Brother Luo He, congratulations on breaking through to the Chaos level. However, there is a vast difference even among those at the Chaos level.”

“In this era, I have invited friends from various factions, yet still haven’t found reinforcements. As a newly ascended Chaos-level being, there’s no need for you to get involved. I’ll settle things with Marquis Liu Yin and decide the outcome. If I lose, I’ll give up the fiefdom.”

“Jiugang Marquis, are you giving up?” Luo Feng sent a message back.

“There’s a nine out of ten chance that I won’t be able to hold this fiefdom.” Jiugang Marquis responded. “As a newly ascended Chaos-level being, what you need is time to grow slowly, not to get involved in this matter now.”

Luo Feng understood.

He then looked into the distant sky.

In the sky, a wisp of blood-colored flame gathered, forming a dark red armored figure, who looked at Luo Feng.

“Release my child, hand over the Snow Realm Envoy, and give 10 billion Cosmos Sand as compensation to the Snow Realm.” The dark red armored figure said coldly, “Then I’ll spare you and give you, a newly ascended Chaos-level being, a chance to live.”

“Otherwise, dealing with you wouldn’t be considered bullying the weak.” The dark red armored figure looked at Luo Feng.

“Are you so confident?” Luo Feng looked at him.

“If you seek your own death, go ahead and act.” The dark red armored figure coldly watched.

Luo Feng nodded and exerted force with his fingers.

Splat!

“No—” The Young Master Yan was filled with terror but was still crushed to dust, turning to ashes.

This scene left Jiugang Marquis and Di Chu Yu stunned! Even the dark red armored figure in the distance had a slight change in expression.

“Come on then, let’s see how I’ve brought about my own death.” Luo Feng looked at the dark red armored figure.
