Chapter 1392: The Gift of the God-King

No wonder since entering the Jin World, Master Zuoshan had never contacted him or asked about the situation within the Jin World, nor had he heard of Zuoshan entering the Jin World.

“Among the many powerful beings in the Cosmic Sea, who wouldn’t be curious about the Jin World?”

“Even the Chaos Lord and other powerful figures in the Hong Alliance were curious and often asked me about it. Yet Master Zuoshan never inquired at all.”

“I’ve always been puzzled—how could Master Zuoshan, merely a True God, create the ‘Nine Calamities Secret Canon’ and forge the Star Tower?” Luo Feng began to understand, although he still hadn’t fully grasped the mystery of the enigmatic Zuoshan, at least he now realized that Zuoshan must be connected to the Jin World.

The core of the Jin Kingdom?

The Jin Kingdom had been destroyed, the God-King had perished, and countless mighty warriors who had followed the God-King into battle must have perished as well. Zuoshan is a True God, that much is certain. Then…

“Did Zuoshan, like me, obtain an inheritance? Perhaps the inheritance of the God-King himself, or of one of the mighty warriors under his command?” Luo Feng considered various possibilities, then temporarily buried his doubts deep within his heart.

At least now, he understood a bit more about Zuoshan.

Numerous thoughts flashed through Luo Feng’s mind, yet he continued conversing normally with the God-King: “Your Majesty, you mentioned those three supreme existences—who exactly are they? I should at least know their identities.”

“That goes without saying,” the magnificently robed man smiled. “These three are the founding monarchs of another great power—the savage ‘Feast Kingdom.'”

“The founding monarchs of the Feast Kingdom?” Luo Feng nodded, then asked curiously, “Where are they now? Could it be… that the Feast Kingdom has already been destroyed?”

All the ancient civilization remnants he had discovered were signs of destruction; only the Jin World remained.

“Destroyed?” The magnificently robed man paused thoughtfully, then sighed softly, “Indeed, it has been a very, very long time. Perhaps the Feast Kingdom has indeed been destroyed.”

Luo Feng couldn’t help but ask, “Your Majesty, if they are still alive, how would I find them in the future?”

The Cosmic Sea…

It was too mysterious.

No one had ever fully explored the edge of the Cosmic Sea. For example, the massive object that resembled the corpse of the God-King had flown from the farthest reaches of the Cosmic Sea! Could there be other beings or terrifying powers lurking in those distant depths?

No one knew.

For a True God, the Cosmic Sea was simply too vast and distant. Traveling too far could easily lead to getting lost.

“To find them? There’s no rush,” the magnificently robed man smiled. “When your strength becomes truly formidable, all secrets will gradually reveal themselves before you. Regarding whether the Feast Kingdom has been destroyed, I’ve thought carefully—Even if the Feast Kingdom has indeed fallen, it’s unlikely that all three founding monarchs would have perished.”

Luo Feng nodded, memorizing this.

“Look,” the magnificently robed man pointed toward an empty space nearby, where a mechanical construct suddenly appeared.

“What is this…” Luo Feng looked closely at the mechanical construct before him. It had a streamlined body, a monkey-like form, and a flexible tail. Even while silently sitting there, it exuded a presence that made Luo Feng feel uneasy.

The magnificently robed man said proudly, “This is the divine-level mechanical construct I created—the Wuqi Divine Construct. It can be used by a single warrior and is among the most supreme of all individual divine-level constructs. It can unleash your maximum combat potential. Its only drawback is that it consumes divine energy extremely quickly. Your divine body is already quite large, but you still need to be careful not to recklessly unleash your power, or else the energy consumption will be enormous, making it difficult for your divine body to recover.”

Luo Feng nodded, his eyes gleaming as he stared at the Wuqi Divine Construct before him.

Trouble with replenishment?

Joke’s on them—he had the Infinite Abyss Clone!

“You completed the Title Task and have become a Title-holder, so you are now qualified to claim this Wuqi Divine Construct. It now belongs to you,” the magnificently robed man declared.

“Belongs to me… but what about the military merits…” Luo Feng looked toward the magnificently robed man.

The Wuqi Divine Construct required 30 million military merits to obtain.

“Haha, completing any task grants military merit rewards,” the magnificently robed man laughed heartily. “The Title Task is extremely difficult, so I set the reward at 30 million military merits. Are you planning not to claim the Wuqi Divine Construct and instead choose other treasures? Of course, that is entirely up to you.”

“Of course I’ll claim it!” Luo Feng quickly replied.

So this was how it worked.

Completing the Title Task rewarded 30 million military merits—effectively gifting the Wuqi Divine Construct to whoever completed the task.

“Wuqi Divine Construct…” Luo Feng stared at the structure before him. “The Cosmic Sea is currently in a state of immense chaos, particularly with the emergence of the Fourth Abyss. The fundamental will of the Primordial Universe even actively guided it! And the power that Lord Hao Lei wielded before his death, completely opposite to divine energy… There must be some hidden truth behind all this.”

Luo Feng felt a sense of impending storm.

“The stronger my power becomes, the better my ability to respond,” he thought to himself. “Besides, this time I entered the Wuqi Tower, especially reaching the third floor, I obtained a large collection of mechanized treasures, divine-level armor, weapons, and more from other warriors. I can exchange some of these mechanized treasures at the military depot for military merits, then use those merits to acquire treasures suitable for our human race.”

How many treasures did one person really need?

Especially once he became a True God, he would only have a single main body. A few powerful treasures would suffice. Therefore, most of the mechanized treasures would be prepared for the benefit of humanity! Of course, he couldn’t just hand them out directly—there was no such thing as a free gift from the heavens.

“Boom!”

Luo Feng reached out and touched the Wuqi Divine Construct. His life imprint effortlessly merged into it, and with a flash…

The entire construct, pitch-black and monkey-like, instantly fused with Luo Feng’s body, transforming him into a tail-wielding humanoid monkey, though his face remained his own.

“How complex.”

As Luo Feng examined it, he immediately sensed that the Wuqi Divine Construct’s rune patterns and diagrams were extremely intricate, far surpassing those of the ‘Ke Niao’ or ‘Golden Claw Divine Construct.’

“This is a divine-level mechanical construct, and among the very best of its kind,” the magnificently robed man beside him explained. “To unleash its full power, your comprehension of divine techniques must reach an extremely high level among True Gods. Of course, even as a Law Sovereign, you can still use it, as it has three different tiers of combat power.”

Luo Feng smiled.

Indeed.

There were three different control modes. Even the first tier was more complex than the Ke Niao or Golden Claw Divine Constructs. As for the third tier, it would likely only be usable after he became a Void True God.

“Store the Wuqi Divine Construct properly,” the magnificently robed man said. “I simply didn’t want many warriors to know that the Title Task held great secrets, so I used the Wuqi Divine Construct as bait to entice Law Sovereigns and True Gods. In truth, it’s not that remarkable of a treasure.”

Luo Feng didn’t argue.

Certainly.

To a great God-King, even a divine-level mechanical construct was nothing special, even if it was the pinnacle among them.

But he was merely a Law Sovereign. During his time as a Law Sovereign and even after becoming a Void True God, the Wuqi Divine Construct would be his best treasure. Even after becoming a Void True God, the Wuqi Divine Construct would still have some use.

“Since I hope for you to become a God-King in the future, I will naturally grant you cultivation methods,” the magnificently robed man shook his head. “However, my expertise lies in forging treasures, clearly not your strength. As for battle-oriented cultivation… I’m not particularly skilled in that, but I have prepared a legacy for you.”

Luo Feng’s eyes lit up—another inheritance?

The more, the better!

“You can study it yourself,” the magnificently robed man tossed him a black-glowing crystal.

“My Jin Kingdom has only one God-King—myself. Therefore, the battle-oriented inheritance I give you will naturally be somewhat inferior,” the magnificently robed man explained. “It is a compilation of inheritances from warriors under my command and those I have slain. It will assist you slightly in your path toward becoming a God-King.”

Luo Feng nodded, holding the inheritance crystal with great anticipation.

However, absorbing an inheritance would take a long time, so it would be better to study it after leaving the Wuqi Tower.

“Granting you this inheritance will require time for cultivation and improvement. While the Wuqi Divine Construct will greatly aid you, you will still be in danger if you encounter a Void True God,” the magnificently robed man continued. “Within the Jin World, I grant you the authority to draw upon the power of the world itself.”

“The power of the world?”

Luo Feng was surprised.

“You completed the Title Task and have been honored accordingly,” the magnificently robed man stated directly. “Your status is now equal to the Four Generals outwardly, but in reality… the Four Generals themselves know that you are the most important figure in the Jin World, someone who must not be harmed. Within the Jin World, you possess absolute authority. Should anyone dare to offend you, you may draw upon the world’s power to deal with them.”

Luo Feng’s face lit up with joy: “How powerful is the Jin World’s world power?”

“It can suppress Eternal True Gods and kill any Void True God,” the magnificently robed man replied bluntly. “However, do not recklessly kill.”

Luo Feng nodded: “I understand.”

The reason why the Jin God-King treated him so well was because he had inherited the ‘Lieyuanshu’ cultivation method, and the hope of slaying the three founding monarchs of the Feast Kingdom rested entirely on him, as the God-King himself had already perished.

Because of the immense expectations placed upon him, it was only natural to bestow him with sufficient status and authority.

At least within the Jin World, he could be granted all the power he needed.

“Being able to draw upon the Jin World’s world power?” Luo Feng’s heart swelled with exhilaration. “With this, the lives and deaths of all the powerful figures from various factions in the Cosmic Sea who have entered the Jin World will be in my hands.”

The God-King merely told him not to kill recklessly.

The implication was clear—if he truly wished to kill, he could.

“I’ve given you everything I can, helped you as much as I could. I have already perished, so this is all I can offer,” the magnificently robed man said. “From now on, it’s up to you. Go now, it’s time for you to leave the Wuqi Tower.”

Luo Feng immediately bowed in gratitude. Regardless, the other had helped him immensely.

Boom!

A beam of light descended, striking Luo Feng.

With a thunderous roar, Luo Feng vanished from the Wuqi Tower and reappeared outside of it.
