Seeing Luo Feng’s expression, the Chaos City Lord couldn’t help but chuckle and teased, “Then I shall look forward to it.”
The Qianbao River was one of the supreme treasures. Even among the numerous Sovereigns who stood at the peak of the universe, most could not obtain such a treasure. He had only mentioned it casually, intending merely to give Luo Feng another goal. Deep down, he had never truly believed that Luo Feng could so easily obtain a supreme treasure.
“Master, you probably don’t know… I already have two supreme treasures under my name. That ‘Jia Jia’ armor is probably no weaker than the Qianbao River. As for ‘Star Tower,’ it is one of the strongest treasures in the universe,” Luo Feng thought to himself.
Suddenly, the Chaos City Lord began to rapidly shrink, and within moments, he transformed from a towering giant rivaling a planet to someone of Luo Feng’s height.
“Luo Feng, there’s something I need to ask you, and I want you to make the choice yourself,” the Chaos City Lord said.
“Please speak, Master,” Luo Feng replied earnestly.
The master and disciple stood at the edge of the palace complex, by the bank of the Qianbao River, and began their conversation.
“Zhenyan and you are also master and disciple, so I must tell you about his affairs,” the Chaos City Lord said, his eyes calm. “In fact, Zhenyan also cultivates the Path of the Beast God.”
“What!” Luo Feng was stunned.
“There are actually quite a few powerful individuals who cultivate the Path of the Beast God, but they’ve always kept it a secret,” the Chaos City Lord explained. “Among the most outstanding of your generation, you and the Qijian King are also cultivating the Path of the Beast God. However, the Beast God is connected to the Ancestral God Sect, whose existence is a major secret in the universe. Therefore, the cultivation of the Beast God Path within our human race is generally kept confidential. For instance, your cultivation of the Beast God Path has never been made public.”
Luo Feng nodded.
Indeed, his cultivation of the Beast God Path was a secret known to very few.
“I’m telling you this because your master, Zhenyan, cultivates the ‘Earth and Space’ fusion path of the Beast God,” the Chaos City Lord continued.
“What!” Luo Feng was surprised again. “Earth and Space!”
Wasn’t the Beast God Inheritance Token he had obtained precisely for the ‘Earth and Space’ Beast God Path?
“You probably already understand my meaning,” the Chaos City Lord gazed at the vast Qianbao River. “Qijian King received a Beast God Inheritance Token from his clan. Given your talent, once you become an immortal god, it would be very easy for the clan to make the decision to give you one as well.”
“But your master, Zhenyan, cannot. His talent is actually inferior to yours. He spent a very long time cultivating and had guidance from powerful clan members before finally reaching the peak of a King. Obtaining a Beast God Inheritance Token directly from the clan is simply impossible for him. His master even applied on his behalf, but the clan has consistently denied the application. To obtain a Beast God Inheritance Token, he can only acquire it himself. However, the universe is vast, and the Beast God Inheritance Tokens are extremely rare. It’s entirely a matter of luck—one could be a World Lord and still stumble upon one by chance, while a Cosmic Sovereign might scour the entire universe and find none.”
The Chaos City Lord looked at Luo Feng. “The clan’s resources belong to all of humanity. Although there are countless treasures within, they must be given to those with the greatest talent, and this decision must be discussed by all the clan’s senior leaders.”
“There is, however, a way to help your master now.”
“You’ve probably guessed it… That is, you directly transfer your Beast God Inheritance Token to your master,” the Chaos City Lord said, looking at Luo Feng. “This will be a great opportunity for him to go to the Inheritance Site. He may even break through to become a Cosmic Sovereign. Of course, he might also fail, as his talent is far inferior to yours and Qijian King’s. You two have already caught up with him despite your short cultivation periods.”
“I’ll give it to him. I’ll give it to my master,” Luo Feng replied without hesitation.
How could he not repay the kindness Zhenyan had shown him?
It’s just that he would have to wait until he became an immortal to receive the Beast God Inheritance Token from the clan. He would just have to wait a little longer. After all, once his third avatar is confirmed and nurtured, he will enter the immortal stage! His master had endured countless eons of hardship. What was a little patience to grant him such a tremendous opportunity?
“Have you made your decision? Will you not regret it?” the Chaos City Lord asked, looking at Luo Feng.
“No regrets,” Luo Feng nodded without hesitation.
“Hmm.”
The Chaos City Lord nodded slightly. “You will give your Beast God Inheritance Token to your master. However, you don’t necessarily have to wait until you reach the immortal stage to go to the Inheritance Site. I will apply to the clan on your behalf… Normally, you would only receive the token once you reach the immortal stage, but I believe that the Tianlang Sovereign will definitely announce the news of Daohe King.”
“Tianlang Sovereign?” Luo Feng was puzzled.
“Yes, Daohe King is actually a World Lord! He will definitely make this information public, and he will also amplify it. Once it spreads… Ha ha, a World Lord being this powerful? Other top clans will all target you, wanting to assassinate you,” the Chaos City Lord sighed. “Of course, our human race will also become fully aware.”
“I’ve been keeping your identity as Daohe King a secret, even from many of the highest levels of our clan, but soon… they will know.”
“I will use this opportunity to apply for a Beast God Inheritance Token for you.”
“Since your strength already rivals that of the Qijian King, you should at least meet the basic threshold for the Inheritance Site,” the Chaos City Lord smiled. “Although the Inheritance Site is dangerous, these are merely the inherent elimination risks of the inheritance process, and you won’t be assassinated by outsiders there. After all, it is a sacred place of the Ancestral God Sect, and no one would dare attempt an assassination there.”
“So… it’s very likely that the Beast God Inheritance Token will be approved.”
“But I can’t be 100% sure. This is a resource of the entire clan, and I can only lead the faction of the Virtual Universe Company. When the senior leaders discuss it internally, the application might still be rejected, as the normal convention is to go to the Inheritance Site only after reaching the immortal stage,” the Chaos City Lord said. “I would say there’s more than a 50% chance.”
“Thank you, Master,” Luo Feng said gratefully.
Even brothers might have disputes.
Of course, there would be some behind-the-scenes struggles among the five major factions of the human race, and the resources of the clan were not entirely under the Chaos City Lord’s control. It could be imagined that there would be some difficulty.
“Haha, the more dazzling you are, the more confident your master will be in fighting for resources for you,” the Chaos City Lord smiled, looking at Luo Feng before him. The Chaos City Lord was very satisfied in his heart… Although he had judged Luo Feng’s character from their usual interactions and his growth trajectory, when Luo Feng was willing to give the Beast God Inheritance Token to Zhenyan without hesitation, it still made the Chaos City Lord very happy.
Clearly, Luo Feng understood gratitude! And respected his teacher!
…
The human Daohe King was actually a World Lord!
This news struck like a bolt from the blue, shocking countless powerhouses. It spread at an astonishing speed, and within just a day, many of the human race’s top experts had learned of it. Throughout the Hong Alliance City, discussions about the Daohe King were ubiquitous, with numerous monarchs exchanging information about him.
“Daohe King is actually a World Lord!”
“He can easily kill a peak King-level immortal, yet he’s a World Lord? Can a World Lord be this strong? Impossible!”
“This is impossible.”
“The news must be true. Both the Demon Race and the Mechanical Race have issued public bounties for the assassination of Daohe King.”
“If the Daohe King were a World Lord, how could so many powerful figures fail to detect it? The aura of a World Lord is entirely different from that of an immortal.”
“There have long been rumors that Daohe King obtained a supreme treasure, and all supreme treasures can hide one’s aura and emit a certain amount of pressure.”
“A supreme treasure?”
“Daohe King possesses a supreme treasure? Even Cosmic Sovereigns are fiercely competing for supreme treasures.”
…
They went crazy.
The news nearly drove everyone insane. The revelations that “Daohe King is a World Lord” and “Daohe King possesses a supreme treasure” were enough to drive countless powerhouses mad with envy. The mere appearance of the Sealing Star had already caused such an uproar, demonstrating just how irresistibly tempting and terrifying the allure of a supreme treasure truly is.
“If Daohe King is a World Lord, then which World Lord is he? He is so terrifyingly powerful, even more incredible than historical figures like Kedi.”
“He is very likely Luo Feng, the most extraordinary World Lord of this generation of the human race, who has already passed through the Primordial Tower of the World Lord level! Comparable to geniuses like Kedi.”
“In my opinion, it’s not Luo Feng, but a hidden super-genius within the human race. This genius is even stronger than Kedi and Luo Feng, which is why they would hide his identity, give him the title of Daohe King, and specially provide a supreme treasure to help him conceal his aura and disguise himself.”
“Are there so many geniuses? Luo Feng is already a once-in-a-millennium prodigy.”
“Perhaps Daohe King himself is one of the most extraordinary geniuses in the history of the human race, even stronger than Kedi and Luo Feng.”
“I still believe Daohe King should be the same person as Luo Feng. How could such a genius remain hidden and unknown?”
…
Across the boundless universe, among countless civilizations, at least in the past ten days or so, the majority of races became aware of the news regarding “Daohe King,” making him an absolute celebrity throughout the cosmos, known to innumerable powerful beings.
All the countless races came to know that Daohe King was a peerless genius nurtured by the human race. As for Daohe King’s true identity—who he truly was, whether it was Luo Feng—it remained merely a speculation… Yet many powerful beings suspected it was Luo Feng, for among the World Lords within the human race whose capabilities could be confirmed, only Luo Feng possessed such prowess.
“Dad, are you that Daohe King?”
“Some of the super families in our Qianwu Cosmic Nation were discussing Daohe King during business dealings. I overheard people speculating that Daohe King might actually be you, Dad.”
In the virtual universe, at the Black Dragon Mountain Island, in the Nine Star Bay Community, Luo Feng was having dinner with his family when his sons, Luo Hai and Luo Ping, asked him such questions.
“I also heard a lot of discussions about it at the Yuxiang Mountain,” Xu Xin looked at Luo Feng.
“Don’t ask too much,” Luo Feng softly warned.
Luo Ping and Luo Hai immediately smiled, because if it wasn’t true, their father would have denied it long ago.
“Wow, Dad, you’re too awesome,” Luo Hai exclaimed with wide eyes.
Luo Feng helplessly looked at his two sons: “Remember, don’t spread this outside.”
“Understood.”
“We know how serious this matter is,” Luo Ping and Luo Hai quickly replied, even more excited.
Nonetheless, although the Daohe King is not yet the supreme existence in the universe, he has at least established a formidable reputation and will leave his name in the annals of countless races. Many powerhouses cultivate and strive precisely for the purpose of achieving true renown across myriad races. Luo Feng has accomplished this goal, thanks to the promotion by the Monster Race.
“This is only the beginning of my ascent. Since they’ve thrust me into the spotlight, it will only serve to strengthen me. The demon clan… you will ultimately miscalculate,” Luo Feng whispered under his breath.
