Inside the palace where Luo Feng resided, within the Thousand-Treasure River Realm.
When Luo Feng opened his eyes, Tianzhen King and Jihong King, who had been waiting beside him, immediately called out, “Master!”
“Has Master finally decided to breakthrough to Immortality?” Tianzhen King asked.
“You two, step aside first.”
Luo Feng waved his hand.
“Yes.”
Though puzzled, Tianzhen King and Jihong King couldn’t imagine Luo Feng failing to break through to Immortality. In their eyes, if Luo Feng couldn’t achieve Immortality, it would be the greatest joke since the birth of the universe.
…
In the silent grand hall, Luo Feng followed the steps of the side hall, ascending them one by one until reaching the highest level of the entire palace.
Leaning on the railing, he gazed at the endless Thousand-Treasure River.
“Ever since the day I left the base city to venture into the wilderness on Earth, I have never given up!” His eyes were as sharp as blades. “The Origin Core restriction? Even if this Origin Core is this powerful, it still cannot stop my path to Immortality.”
“Breaking through the restriction, all external treasures and such are useless.”
“It depends on the comprehension of laws, secret techniques, mental power amplification, and willpower!” Luo Feng murmured. “It’s difficult for me to improve my willpower in the short term; I can only gradually temper it through the passage of time. As for mental power amplification, it cannot be increased for now either. My Beast God Intent and comprehension of laws have already reached the peak among those below the rank of Cosmic Lord.”
“The only thing that can push me forward significantly is… secret techniques!”
Luo Feng murmured to himself.
“Among the inheritors of Purple Cloud Island through the ages, some have elevated their secret techniques to the level of ‘Ultimate Techniques.’ Take my mentor, Venerable Zhenyan, for example. After countless ages, his secret techniques have already approached the threshold of ‘Ultimate.'” Luo Feng pondered silently. “If they could achieve it, so can I!”
Zhenyan’s conditions were even worse than Luo Feng’s, after all, he didn’t have the continuous guidance of Chaos City Lord.
“I will create an Ultimate Technique! My strength will surge tenfold again! I refuse to believe I still won’t succeed!” Luo Feng clenched his lips, his eyes sharp. “If I still fail, I will find every means to enhance my mental power amplification, temper my willpower further, and improve my Beast God Intent.”
“No matter what…”
“I must succeed! Failure is not an option!”
Luo Feng tightened his right hand, leaving an imprint on the railing. He then turned and left, while the railing gradually returned to its original state… it contained memory metal.
…
Although Luo Feng occasionally spent time with his family, even during meals where he learned about the family’s current status, most of his consciousness was still immersed in researching secret techniques. This time… Luo Feng wasn’t studying sword techniques anymore, but was fully focused on the “Ten Thousand Stars Preaching Chart.”
100 years, 200 years… 900 years, 1000 years…
Time flowed like water.
After 3,000 years had passed, within the virtual universe martial arts training ground.
“Perish.” Standing atop a ruined peak, Luo Feng pointed at a distant rock-based lifeform. On 1,600 crystal spheres, intricate patterns spread across their surfaces. These 1,600 crystal spheres connected together, forming the tail of the “Beast God.” In midair, countless law threads intertwined, forming the figure of a Beast God.
The tail of this Beast God was incredibly vivid, while the rest of its body appeared blurry.
“Roar~~” Accompanied by a furious roar.
The Beast God vanished in a flash and reappeared before the rock-based lifeform.
“Boom~~~” The rock-based lifeform suddenly erupted with endless, scorching flames. Yet what awaited it was as if countless “rain threads” of illusions. The Beast God moved with incomparable precision. If its speed was astonishing, its tail moved hundreds of times faster than its main body.
That long tail left behind a trail of afterimages, like countless rain threads filling this space, omnipresent. Seemingly harmless, yet the rock-based lifeform let out an angry and terrified roar as those countless starlight threads penetrated every inch of its being.
“Peng!”
The rock-based lifeform trembled slightly, then shattered and was completely annihilated.
“Lightning rushing across stars, starlight like threads weaving the universe.”
“The first move is finally complete.” Luo Feng nodded slightly from afar.
“Luo Feng.”
A golden-robed figure flew over from a distance—it was Chaos City Lord.
“Teacher.” Luo Feng respectfully saluted.
“You’ve spent these three thousand years studying the first move of your ‘Ten Thousand Stars Preaching Chart,’ and now you’ve finally evolved the first move to the level of an ‘Ultimate Technique.’” Chaos City Lord’s eyes held a trace of confusion. “But why did you invest so much effort into researching secret techniques? You already have the ability to break through to Immortality.”
“My strength is still insufficient.” Luo Feng replied respectfully.
Chaos City Lord shook his head with a smile, thinking Luo Feng was being too humble.
“At least you’re not arrogant.” Chaos City Lord said. “Tell me, when do you plan to break through to Immortality?”
“I wish to evolve the first three moves to the ‘Ultimate’ level.” Luo Feng replied.
“The first three moves?” Chaos City Lord was surprised.
Creating an Ultimate Technique was an immensely challenging task. Otherwise, the number of Ultimate Techniques developed on the Purple Vine Island—which gathered the most brilliant geniuses from countless races across the cosmos—would not have been so scarce.
The first move, based on the first level of the Beast God inheritance, was relatively simple.
The second move, based on the second level of the Beast God inheritance, was much harder.
The third was even more difficult.
Luo Feng now had a high vantage point, profound comprehension of laws, and the guidance of Chaos City Lord, which enabled him to create the first move of the ‘Ultimate Technique’ within three thousand years.
“How long will this take?” Chaos City Lord asked.
“As long as it takes.” Luo Feng replied respectfully.
Chaos City Lord was somewhat surprised. In his view, Luo Feng’s reputation had already spread across countless races in the universe. Such fame alone should have pressured Luo Feng into rushing toward Immortality.
“Well, I’m not in a hurry. As a World Lord, you have a clearer connection to the cosmic source, which is indeed suitable for creating secret techniques.” Chaos City Lord said. “However, although I guide you and set up opponents for you, you will soon find that you are helpless against them. Ultimately, the way forward still depends on yourself.”
“I am deeply grateful for your guidance, Teacher.” Luo Feng replied respectfully.
“Alright, then do as you wish.” Chaos City Lord no longer tried to persuade him.
As one of the earliest existences to rise from the human race, Chaos City Lord had lived an incredibly long life, and his patience was boundless.
…
Luo Feng devoted himself to studying the second move. The second move was clearly much more difficult than the first. Fortunately, Luo Feng’s comprehension of laws was far ahead, so he handled it with ease, gradually overcoming one challenge after another. This time, it took over 8,000 years… before he finally evolved the second move to the level of an Ultimate Technique.
“Ya~~” A nine-thousand-kilometer-long, scaled-winged avian special lifeform emitted a silent shockwave, directly piercing Luo Feng’s mind.
Luo Feng’s will was firm, completely unaffected.
“The 2000th opponent.”
“Today is the day of your demise.” Luo Feng controlled the giant Beast God hovering in the sky. 5,200 crystal spheres were still located at the tail of the Beast God, but now the entire Beast God was incredibly clear. The towering Beast God… under Luo Feng’s deliberate control, stretched to three thousand kilometers in length.
The avian special lifeform had transformed into a black streak of light. Wherever it passed, distant stars and planets were directly annihilated merely by being grazed by the black light. Yet the Beast God hovered motionless in the sky, the two special lifeforms about to collide in the high heavens.
“Kill.” A sharp gleam flashed in Luo Feng’s eyes.
He had failed more than 900 times before this 2000th opponent.
Finally, the Beast God’s several-thousand-kilometer-long tail moved. In an instant, it transformed into a dazzling rainbow of light, like the last explosive burst of a dying star, or the final gleam of a falling meteor… This dazzling streak of light was silent, as if teleporting, instantly slicing through the incoming black light.
The black light shattered and was annihilated.
Hua~~~
At this moment, a massive rift finally appeared in the starry sky, followed by a huge shockwave spreading outward, “Boom~~~” the sound continued endlessly.
“Brilliant as the sun and stars, the rainbow light cuts through the night like a blade!” Luo Feng softly recited. “The second move is complete!”
…
The Ultimate Technique, “Ten Thousand Stars Preaching Chart,” took three thousand years for the first move.
Eight thousand years for the second move.
Then Luo Feng began studying the third move. In fact, the reason Luo Feng was able to create the first two moves so quickly was mainly due to three factors: first, Chaos City Lord had set up one opponent after another for him, each directly targeting the weaknesses in Luo Feng’s secret techniques. Second, Luo Feng had already mastered the third level of the Beast God Intent, so creating the first two levels of Ultimate Techniques wasn’t too difficult. Third, he had the assistance of his Gold-Horned Beast clone and Mosha Clan clone.
The Mosha Clan clone had an extraordinary perception of ‘space,’ being able to fully merge into it. The Gold-Horned Beast clone, having fused with numerous Blood-Net Crystals, often gained inspiration while observing the ‘Beast God Statue,’ which was another major contributing factor.
However—
When Luo Feng started creating the third move, he truly encountered difficulties.
His comprehension of laws was only so high, and his Beast God Intent was barely at the level of the 21st Floor of the Heaven-Soaring Bridge. Creating a third move at the level of an ‘Ultimate Technique’ was extremely difficult. Luo Feng struggled to defeat one opponent after another, constantly refining the third move, continuously enhancing its power.
It took a full 20,000 years! Luo Feng had only defeated the 1,520th opponent. The higher the number, the more difficult the opponent. At this rate, it might take hundreds of thousands, even millions of years to complete.
“Break!”
“Break through!”
Inside the Origin Core, the human form of Luo Feng, transformed from the Origin Pearl, used the second move of the Ultimate Technique and the incomplete third move, repeatedly throwing himself into attacking the inner wall of the Origin Core.
“Boom~~~” The inner wall cracked, the entire inner wall of the Origin Core completely fractured. However, the hazy, chaotic color slightly flowed, and the Origin Core was restored as if nothing had happened.
“If I still haven’t succeeded.”
“Do I really have to spend a million years creating the third move of the Ultimate Technique?” Luo Feng was indeed becoming anxious. For the past 30,000 years, he had been silent, causing many alien races, and even factions within the human race, to spread various rumors. Many had originally believed that Daohe King would quickly become an Immortal.
But so far, there had been no news at all. The once brilliant Daohe King seemed to have completely vanished.
“I’ve actually become this impatient.”
Luo Feng suddenly realized. Nearly 30,000 years of secluded cultivation, combined with the rumors outside, had indeed affected him.
“If I can’t succeed in secluded cultivation, why not take a journey across the universe? I’ve lived for tens of thousands of years since birth, yet I’ve never truly taken the time to observe the universe. I’ve only known how to fight and kill all the way.” Luo Feng suddenly had the thought to travel the universe, and once he had the idea, he naturally acted on it immediately.
Luo Feng, with his high level of mental cultivation, clearly understood what he should do and when…
