Inside the grand hall.
Puti gazed down at Luo Feng: “Child, you are the most outstanding of the Earth lineage. You’ve passed all the previous hidden trials, and only the final life-or-death path remains. Succeed, and you will become the true leader of the Earth lineage! You will have the opportunity to become a true overlord in the vast universe, and even possibly reach the level of our teacher.”
“Reach the level of our teacher?” Luo Feng thought in astonishment.
That powerful being from another race was one of the strongest in the vast universe, rivaled only by the Founding Father of the Halberd Alliance.
“This is what our teacher personally stated,” Puti said solemnly. “Of course, it’s only a possibility… Everything, from cultivation of any law to the creation of secret techniques, must rely on yourself. Take my second senior apprentice brother, the leader of the Flame God Clan, for example—he has cultivated for countless eons, yet still falls slightly short of our teacher.”
Luo Feng nodded slightly.
Actually, the leader of the Flame God Clan, who had become a cosmic lord and made the human race reluctant to provoke him, was already extremely strong.
“What is the final life-or-death path?” Luo Feng asked urgently.
“The Star Tower!” Puti replied softly. “The final life-or-death path is… the Star Tower’s master selection!”
“The Star Tower’s master selection?” Luo Feng’s body trembled.
To become the master of a supreme treasure is considered a life-or-death path?
“Our teacher was unparalleled in forging powerful treasures, the strongest in the universe,” Puti sighed. “However, even among the universe’s strongest beings, there are many hidden and unique secrets they cannot fully comprehend. The Star Tower was created by our teacher in a particularly dangerous place through a stroke of luck. When it was nearly completed, a golden ray from the cosmos accidentally merged into it, making the Star Tower today somewhat different from our teacher’s original concept.”
“Our teacher already has his own supreme treasure, so he doesn’t need the Star Tower.
“However, our teacher discovered that finding another master for the Star Tower, allowing it to choose a master, was extremely difficult,” Puti said. “The Star Tower is already considered one of the strongest supreme treasures in the universe, nearly equal to our teacher’s own treasures, and its criteria for choosing a master are even more stringent.”
“Stringent?” Luo Feng furrowed his brows.
Puti gazed down at Luo Feng: “Yes! The stronger the candidate’s soul, the more terrifying the process of choosing a master becomes. Long ago, our teacher once selected over ten thousand powerful beings from across the cosmos, ranging from World Kings, Immortals, to Cosmic Sovereigns, to test the Star Tower… All of these chosen candidates perished.”
Luo Feng sighed inwardly. This powerful being from another race was ruthless indeed, casually capturing a group of powerful beings for experiments, treating even Cosmic Sovereigns as test subjects.
“From those experiments, our teacher concluded…”
“World Kings and Immortals still have a chance at being chosen. Cosmic Sovereigns have absolutely no possibility.”
“The choosing primarily tests the mind and willpower!”
“That’s why our teacher cultivated the Earth lineage, the lineage that progresses the fastest in terms of the mind,” Puti explained. “You are currently a World King, so there’s still hope for success. Historically, the previous two candidates from your Earth lineage were a World King and an Immortal, both with extremely high mental realms, yet they both failed and perished.”
“A World King?” Luo Feng looked at Puti. This Puti’s insight was too sharp.
“I can see through your soul at a glance.”
“You used a supreme treasure to hide your life aura, which might deceive a Cosmic Sovereign, but not a Cosmic Overlord,” Puti smiled slightly. Luo Feng suddenly understood. Previously, the Chaos City Lord had also easily seen through his origins, knowing that he had clones, etc. Perhaps Puti’s strength was somewhat inferior to that of the Chaos City Lord.
But he was still a great existence, a Cosmic Overlord.
“I know you have clones.”
“But once the master selection process begins, you will have no way back. Even if your Chaos City Lord comes personally, he cannot save you,” Puti said solemnly. “Although the Chaos City Lord is formidable, especially invincible within the Primordial Universe, when he comes to the original universe, to the Star Tower, even he would be helpless.”
“Once the master selection process of the Star Tower begins, no one can stop it.”
“If you fail…”
“Your willpower will completely collapse, and your soul will completely disintegrate. There will be no doubt about your death,” Puti said seriously. “Although your Chaos City Lord teacher can reverse time and space to resurrect you, he cannot restore the memories related to the ‘Nine Calamities Secret Canon.’ You, who have inherited the ‘Nine Calamities Secret Canon,’ cannot be resurrected with the inheritance. The ‘Nine Calamities Secret Canon’ is something that cannot exist in the universe.”
“If you die.”
“Even if you are resurrected in the future, the ‘Nine Calamities Secret Canon’ will disappear, and the transformation your body’s genes received from it will also vanish. Even if you obtain the Jia and Wang armor again, you won’t be able to use them. In short, you will lose the qualification of being the leader of the Earth lineage and all the abilities that come with it.”
Luo Feng took a deep breath. If he lost these, his strength would plummet drastically.
…
“Boom~~~” Suddenly, the hall surrounded by countless sealed stars began to tremble.
“It has begun.”
Puti turned his gaze toward the center of the hall. “The master selection is about to start.”
“The Star Tower is the treasure that the leader of the Earth lineage should possess.”
Whoosh!
Rays of light shot out from various parts of the hall and gathered in the center of the hall’s midair, forming a transparent crystal bead with faint golden threads.
“Luo Feng.” Puti turned to look at him. “The first candidate lasted 2,600 years before perishing. The second candidate lasted 3,300 years before perishing. I hope you can survive.”
“Hmm.” Luo Feng turned to look at the crystal bead.
A turning point in fate!
This master selection process would be a turning point in his fate.
If he failed, even if his Chaos City Lord resurrected him, he would lose everything related to the ‘Nine Calamities Secret Canon.’ At that time, he would only be considered a genius, but without such an opportunity, his future performance would definitely be much weaker. The Chaos City Lord’s regard for him would also decrease. He would be lucky to become a ‘Cosmic Sovereign,’ and even a Cosmic Sovereign… in the eyes of the powerful beings from other races, was just a mere ant’s life.
But if he succeeded…
He would become the leader of the Earth lineage, have the opportunity to become a dominant force in the vast universe, and even have the chance to become a cosmic overlord rivaling the powerful beings from other races!
“Succeed!”
“I must succeed.” Luo Feng roared inwardly.
“Master, master.” The consciousness of the King of the Heavy Arrow suddenly reached out to Luo Feng. “I’ve already escaped that void. Although I warned the Quwu King through a transmission that the Tianzhen King was suspicious, the Quwu King still fell under the siege and assault from the Demon Faction! Master, where are you? I can sense your location, but I can’t reach you.”
“Quwu King perished?” Luo Feng couldn’t help but feel a surge of killing intent. “Tianzhen King! I will definitely kill you!”
“Zhongjian, you first leave the Star Tower, even leave the battlefield outside the domain. Wait quietly. I will contact you through the virtual universe later.” Luo Feng ordered. He had previously given Zhongjian some anonymous virtual universe network consciousness sensors.
“Yes, master.”
…
“Luo Feng, you must persevere. The master selection process is extremely painful, making each day feel like a year. At least the first two candidates proved one thing… enduring 3,300 years was still not enough.” Puti looked at Luo Feng.
“Hmm.” Luo Feng nodded solemnly.
Kill Tianzhen King?
He should first get through this current disaster. If he failed this time and perished, his servants would also perish. Even if he was resurrected… without the Jia and Wang armor, he wouldn’t have the strength to deal with Tianzhen King.
“I must endure this calamity.” Luo Feng silently said.
“Then it begins!”
Puti was extremely serious. He gently pointed his finger at Luo Feng from afar. Instantly, the seemingly ordinary crystal bead, which floated in the air without any pressure or special aura, flew toward Luo Feng. At the moment it touched Luo Feng, he didn’t even feel the contact, and the crystal bead had already entered his mind.
“Boom!”
At the moment the crystal bead touched the core pearl inside Luo Feng’s body,
The true core of Luo Feng, the original nucleus hidden in the world ring, trembled violently. Even the soul of the Mosha Clan clone and the Golden-Horned Giant Beast clone also trembled… Just like when the soul controls Luo Feng’s Earth human clone, it can fully control Luo Feng’s other clones, the same principle applies!
The soul is divided into three parts, with the original nucleus as the core. The consciousness can easily shift between the souls of the three clones.
If the nucleus breaks or is destroyed, it’s not a big issue. However, if one of them is controlled by the soul and becomes a slave, the others will all be affected.
This crystal bead fusion will also affect the original nucleus. If it fails, even the original nucleus will disintegrate.
“No feeling?”
“Wasn’t it said to be very painful, making each day feel like a year?” Luo Feng sat cross-legged, slightly puzzled in his heart.
“Boom!”
That inconceivable and terrifying pain instantly erupted from the depths of the three clones and the original nucleus, as if some monster wanted to drill out from the soul.
…
Puti sat on the hall’s throne, his purple beard hanging down, looking at Luo Feng, who sat cross-legged and showed a pained expression, trembling. He sighed silently: “Becoming the leader of the Earth lineage is not easy. I hope you, the third candidate, can succeed.”
…
There was once a rebirth in Luo Feng’s life, when he burned his soul and perished together with the Golden-Horned Giant Beast. Luo Feng survived through soul transference.
Since then, his fate had changed!
Now, this is the second rebirth of his life, and it all depends on whether Luo Feng can survive this rebirth process…
…
Deep within the boundless streams of air.
An old man, about ninety thousand kilometers tall, with a faint black glow all over his body, sat cross-legged on a floating mountain, his forehead adorned with two crystalline horns, spoke in a majestic voice: “Montuo Sovereign, I have no intention of interfering in your conflict with humanity, but… those 91 small grains of sand, I need them!”
“Old man, our clan has finally suppressed that human, and you want to take one of the three treasures with just a few casual words?” A thunderous voice, making the endless streams of air tremble, exploded directly beside the old man who was ninety thousand kilometers tall.
“If you refuse, I will help the humans.” The towering old man was not the least bit annoyed.
Suddenly, the towering old man’s expression slightly changed. He turned his head and gazed into the infinite void, as if seeing through the endless distance to the Star Tower in the seventh battlefield of the battlefield outside the domain.
“The third candidate has begun?” The towering old man’s eyes showed a glimmer of expectation. “I hope that young man can succeed.”
“Old man, you’re really bold! Don’t give me a chance!”
The voice of the great existence in the distant place roared in anger, causing lightning to emerge from the boundless streams of air. Then, 91 brilliant rays of light streaked across the boundless streams of air, flying toward this old man.
“Lord Montuo, Ruler of Chaos City, I shall trouble you no more!” The towering elder laughed heartily as he sat upon the floating mountain. In an instant, a dazzling streak of light flashed by, carrying the mountain away as it vanished into the boundless currents of the deep sky.
