Golden Smoke Marsh! Donghua Branch!
The river of time flows ceaselessly.
In the vast Cosmic Sea, the Primordial Universe and numerous Small Universe, countless beings are born and countless lives perish, the cycle of life and death repeats itself, but for the strong, it is only a fleeting moment.
In the blink of an eye, more than three hundred years have passed.
Deep within the Cosmic Boat Inner Domain lies the Wave Star Sea.
The vast, cold, deep blue ocean was constantly trembling, surging, and roaring. The space above the Sea Region was completely frozen without any fluctuations, and countless small Bing Ren streaked across the sky, wreaking havoc everywhere.
This is an extremely dangerous place, no less dangerous than the Annihilation Ravine, and even more vast than the Wave Star Sea. There are several places where Supreme Treasure are likely to appear. Each time a treasure appears, it is at least Peak Supreme Treasure (top- Domain-type). Therefore, several forces have strong people stationed here.
Somewhere in the sky above the Sea Region, there floated a tiny, domed, silver temple.
Inside this silver temple, five powerful figures were gathered, all of whom were pillars of the human race.
"Since over three hundred years ago, Luo Feng you dragged the Lord of Five Huns into the Ninth Abyss, your main battle bodies all perished. The Lord of Five Huns lost the God Armor of Annihilation and also lost his extremely special winged Supreme Treasure. After that, he kept a low profile and remained silent. I thought you had been secretly cultivating all these years, but I didn't expect you to become even more heaven-defying." The Void Gold Master looked at Luo Feng, who was wearing silver armor, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Haha... If I hadn't run into Cosmic Boat by chance in the Wave Star Sea, I really wouldn't have believed that you, Luo Feng, had been posing as the 'Lord Lie Jin' all this time, and now your strength has reached the top level of the fourth rank. It really gave me a fright." Lord Huang Jian laughed heartily.
"To have entered the ranks of the Lords of the Universe in such a short time, and to have reached the Tier 4 peak so quickly, is truly incredible. Looking at the entire Primordial Universe and even the Cosmic Sea, and the Earth lineage, it is unbelievable that you and Lin Yan have appeared at the same time." The Void Gold Master sighed in amazement.
Besides the Void Gold Master and the Lord Huang Jian, Luo Feng, the Lord of Ice Peak, and the Chaos City Lord were also present.
Within the Hong Alliance, there are 20 Universe Lords from the human race, most of whom are at least at the third rank. As for the Universe Lords from other races, there are also about 20, but their overall strength is considerably weaker.
Since Lin Yan contributed that extremely detailed map of the Cosmic Boat, almost all of the Hong Alliance's top experts, except those who remained in the Primordial Universe, have rushed to the Cosmic Boat from various dangerous places.
Those with weaker strength venture into outer realms.
Some of them went deeper into the Inner Domain to explore.
The danger of exploring the inner Inner Domain is even greater. Apart from a very few who have strong survival abilities and act alone, the rest form two teams, each led by a Tier 5 Universe Master, the Chaos City Lord and Lord Peng Gong, and embark on their adventure along two separate routes.
Teams can split up or join together, and even when adventuring alone, they won't be too far apart. If they encounter danger, other strong individuals can rush to their aid in time.
The Chaos City Lord's team chose to roam around the Wave Star Sea, and as a result, they witnessed Luo Feng displaying his divine power during the most recent Treasure Appears.
"Back then, you dragged Wuhun to your death. Later, the Giant Axe went to that abyss to search for your Silver Wing Supreme Treasure, but it didn't find it. To this day, we haven't heard about the final fate of your two great Supreme Treasure, Wuhun and the Silver Wing Treasure." The Chaos City Lord looked at Luo Feng and laughed. "Fortunately, you have good fortune. You just lost the Silver Wing Supreme Treasure, but you gained another piece of armor that is second only to the Ultimate Supreme Treasure, making your strength even higher."
The Chaos City Lord was filled with emotion.
More than three hundred years ago, when Luo Feng first entered the Cosmic Boat, he saw that his disciple was weak and strictly ordered him not to venture into the Inner Domain because it was dangerous. As a result, Luo Feng not only ventured into the Inner Domain, but also ventured into the Annihilation Ravine and fought against the Lord of Five Huns and the Lord Jiujian.
The final result was astonishing.
Relying on the inherent danger of the forbidden land, the Lord Jiujian perished, and the Lord of Five Huns pursued Luo Feng, both of them falling into the Ninth Abyss, where all the main war lords perished.
When the Chaos City Lord learned of this news, he felt a little sorry for his disciple. Luo Feng's Wing Supreme Treasure was a special treasure that was second only to the Ultimate Supreme Treasure. Once it was lost, it would be very difficult to get it back.
But unexpectedly, it became even more incredible in a short period of time.
"To others, Luo Feng has already stepped into the realm of the Universe Lord, but in reality, he is only Universe Venerable. His divine power is weak, but his secret techniques are extremely powerful. With the help of the Secret Pattern Diagram Flow, he created the Universe Master's Strongest Secret Technique. Furthermore, by activating the secret patterns of that treasure armor, his strength has reached the Tier 4 peak. Once he steps into the realm of the Universe Lord, he will be at the Tier 5 peak." The Chaos City Lord sighed inwardly, "This speed of progress and his opportunities are only slightly inferior to Junior Brother Lin Yan."
"Even the teacher and the Giant Axe have high hopes for him, believing that he has a better chance of becoming the Universe's Strongest than Peng Gong and Darkness."
A hint of expectation flickered in the eyes of the Chaos City Lord.
In his view, Lin Yan's talent was already so extraordinary that it could shake the world and leave everyone in awe. Luo Feng, on the other hand, was only slightly inferior, which was already a terrifying thing.
Luo Feng is his personal disciple, and he is proud of his achievements. If he could become the Universe's Strongest, that would be even better.
Luo Feng, who was standing to the side, smiled.
In fact, his Slaying Wu Wings were not lost, and the armor he wore was the "God Armor of Annihilation" of the Lord of Five Huns. He did not perish in the Abyss. However, this was related to the Star Tower and Master Mountain Master, which could not be explained at all, so he concealed it.
However, regarding the issue of secret techniques, he revealed that he follows the Secret Pattern Diagram Flow.
After a long conversation, only the Chaos City Lord and Luo Feng remained in the hall.
Luo Feng asked curiously, "The Supreme Treasure that you used on the Wave Star Sea just now, teacher, should be the 'Eight Hun Needles' that Lin Yan mentioned before, right?"
"Yes." The Chaos City Lord nodded. "Shortly after your battle with Wuhun, Lin Yan met with us. He gave us some of the Supreme Treasure and sent the rest back to the Primordial Universe."
He made a gesture with his right hand, and eight strange long shuttles immediately appeared in front of him.
"This is an offensive Set Supreme Treasure, extremely powerful, and its value is no less than your armor," said the Chaos City Lord. "I only need to activate the secret runes within it to unleash power that is greater than my previous strength. If I were to create another ultimate technique based on this Supreme Treasure, my power would be infinitely close to that of the sixth rank."
At this point, the Chaos City Lord added, "Lin Yan also specially left you a Supreme Treasure, asking me to give it to you. Did he tell you about it?"
"Yes, I already mentioned it," Luo Feng nodded, "But I didn't specify what kind of Supreme Treasure it was."
"Haha..." The Chaos City Lord glanced at Luo Feng and smiled, "You two have a really good relationship."
Luo Feng was wondering what these words meant when the Chaos City Lord handed him an ancient-looking mirror.
The mirror is made of gold, with a faint meteor-like glow on it, and it looks somewhat similar to the "Golden Line Aurora Mirror," a top-tier Domain Supreme Treasure he had previously obtained.
But once the Life Imprint was imprinted, an ancient message came through, and Luo Feng's heart skipped a beat, his face showing shock and astonishment.
"The 'Golden Smoke Marsh,' Peak Domain Supreme Treasure?" Luo Feng stared wide-eyed at the golden ancient mirror in his hand. "And it's a top-grade supreme treasure among Peak Domain Supreme Treasure?"
This is actually a Domain Supreme Treasure comparable to the "Meng Zu Domain" of the Ancestor Meng Yao!
"Although Lin Yan left behind this 'Golden Smoke Marsh,' it is slightly inferior to your Silver Wing Supreme Treasure, but it can still greatly make up for your loss in this regard," the Chaos City Lord said with a smile. "Now that you are stronger, with the assistance of this Golden Smoke Marsh, it will be easier for you to go to the Black Patterned Stone Pillar to temper your will and deal with the dangers in the Cosmic Boat Inner Domain."
"This is his personal gift, not a distribution of the tribe's treasures. You should know that."
"Yes." Luo Feng nodded solemnly.
If the treasures were distributed according to the clan's rules, he would certainly not be able to obtain this "Golden Smoke Marsh." The clear distinction between public and private property is a consistent tradition of human clans.
He knew that Lin Yan had indeed obtained many precious Supreme Treasure, but he never expected that he would be given a top-grade treasure of the Peak Domain Supreme Treasure directly.
You should know that when Lin Yan last obtained the Mysterious Item Divine Wood, he contributed it to his clan and only received this Supreme Treasure in return. He was immediately moved.
"But my Slaying Wu Wings haven't been lost." Luo Feng's eyes gleamed, and he couldn't help but tremble. "The perfect Slaying Wu Wings are comparable to rare treasures. Add to that this top-grade Golden Smoke Marsh and the Miniature Universe, and the three combined, how terrifying will it be?"
"Lin Yan, you've really helped me a lot."
More than 1,700 years later, Lin Yan returned to the Primordial Universe.
It took him 900 years to travel to the Green Token Space, but he chose a more dangerous route on his return trip, which actually saved him a lot of time.
If it weren't for the need to return the treasure to his clan, he might have wandered the Cosmic Sea for much longer.
The first thing he did upon returning was to send the many Supreme Treasure from Jie Fanzi and True Lord Zhendan's treasure trove to the Chaos City of the Initial Universe. The specific arrangements were left to the Chaos City Lord to worry about, while he returned to his own divine kingdom.
In the vast divine kingdom.
The entire void of the divine kingdom formed a huge and awe-inspiring Secret Pattern Diagram, which transformed into endless Chaos Qi flow that permeated the divine kingdom. Layer upon layer of crystal walls seemed to contain layers of space and time, and the vast divine kingdom was constantly expanding.
The majestic Cang Green Ancient Tree constantly emitted a sound that captivated the soul. Lin Yan stood before the magnificent temple above the Ancestor Tree, overlooking the boundless divine kingdom.
"I'm back."
Lin Yan's eyes were distant, his thoughts wandering.
Before entering the Cosmic Sea, his strength was at the Tier 6 peak, but this was limited to the "Myriad Tribulations Secret Technique". The divine power consumption of the Myriad Tribulations Secret Technique was extremely terrifying, and it was entirely supported by the divine power supply of the Green Line Devouring Worm clone.
Normally, one's mastery of secret techniques is only at the Tier 4 peak.
Now, his abilities in all aspects have become more solid. He has not only created a secret technique that is almost perfect at the level of the Lord of the Universe, but his understanding of the "Water Fire Origin" is also gradually improving, and he is beginning to find a new path.
In addition, they also obtained many treasures.
Call!
Lin Yan's mind stirred, and three treasures appeared before him.
A Golden Ancient Sword, an ancient city that faintly exudes golden light, and a golden vine-like treasure.
Xuanyuan Sword!
Primordial Emperor City!
Donghua Branch!
There was actually another Water Fire Lotus, but because it was a rare object, it was not brought into this Primordial Universe.
With Lin Yan's current cultivation level, all four treasures can unleash the power of the Tier 6 peak! The Xuanyuan Sword and the Primordial Emperor City are of course beyond question.
"Over the years, based on the 'Two Realms Lotus,' and according to the inherent characteristics of this wondrous object, I have comprehended the Dao of Water and Fire, and have reached a limit. I have created a unique technique called 'Water Fire Lotus,' which complements and enhances each other, without the slightest flaw. It is extremely compatible with the Two Realms Lotus, and its power has been raised to another level."
"But we are still stuck at this step and cannot achieve a fundamental breakthrough to the sixth rank."
He then looked at the golden vines.
On his return journey, relying on his strength, he ventured into some dangerous places and made some gains. The most noteworthy of these was this Ultimate Supreme Treasure the True God Level!
This also took advantage of a chance opportunity.
The Donghua Branch is Restraint Treasure belonging to the category of telekinetic weapons.
Binding, like Domain Supreme Treasure and the ability to Control of Space-Time, has similar power, but it has its own emphasis compared to telekinetic weapons.
Once someone reaches the level of a Universe Lord, it is very difficult to kill them. Even if you are stronger than them, it is difficult to stop them from escaping. However, as Restraint Treasure, once it is used, it becomes easier to kill the enemy head-on.
It has significant practical implications.
"I easily comprehended the Third Form Secret Patterns in this 'Donghua Branch.' With this treasure, if I were to encounter Tier 6 Universe Master like Lord Youzan, unless it's Palace-type or defensive type, I would have a good chance of killing him. As for the fifth-order... it would be a piece of cake," Lin Yan thought to himself.
Before this, let alone the Lord Youzan, even the Lord of Five Huns would find it difficult to kill him head-on once he condensed the Five Beast God.
"I have four things to do right now."
"One is the Panwang Mountain Inheritance, but one must Will Polished to the level of a true god in order to meet the limited conditions and unlock the opportunity."
"Secondly, there's Tier 6 Secret Technique. I do have a guess about this, and I can test it out when we go back to the Cosmic Boat."
"Thirdly, there's the system's opportunity. There are still two chances left. Once I obtain the Panwang Mountain Inheritance, I won't need to stay at the level of Universe Venerable anymore. In recent years, I've only obtained the Donghua Branch. I can't miss this last chance... I also have a goal in this regard."
"Finally, there is the Duan Donghe Inheritance. If we follow the timeline of the original story, it will appear in the world very soon."
Lin Yan pondered.
The Duan Donghe Inheritance is a King of Gods level inheritance.
In fact, according to the inheritance conditions in the original work, if he really wanted to compete, his chances of becoming the final winner would be more than 99%, or even inevitable.
However, he wasn't very interested.
"The Core Inheritance of Duan Dong He are 'Duan Mie,' 'Donghua,' and 'Undying River'!" Lin Yan thought to himself. "'Duan Mie' is Divine Power Burning Secret Technique, similar to my 'Annihilation' talent, except that my Annihilation Talent is only equivalent to the first level."
"Donghua is a secret technique for escaping death, and it overlaps with the Nine Heavens Secret Art, so there should be no need for it."
"The Undying River is a life-saving secret technique, and it is very similar to the [Undying Day] that I fused with the Initial Star. I not only have the 'Sun Moon Twin Pupils', but also clones, so I don't need to think about it much."
Of the three Core Inheritance, only "Duan Mie" is useful. And such a Divine Power Burning Secret Technique as "Duan Mie" may be obtained in places like the Jin Zhi World in the future. For now, there is also the Talent Secret Method "Annihilation", so it is not urgent.
Moreover, there may also be some elements in the Panwang Mountain Inheritance.
"Even if the Panwang Mountain Inheritance doesn't include the Three great forbidden zones, I will definitely travel to them all in the future. It's impossible to only have these two inheritances. For example, Liuzhong Mountain also has many special features."
"On the contrary, it is very important to Luo Feng. Without this inheritance, he would probably have to wait for the arrival of the Jin Zhi World."
Lin Yan was quite frank about it.
When he first broke through to the Planetary level and couldn't even leave Earth, he was unwilling to go and obtain the Yun Mo Star Inheritance. If he had gone, it would have been inevitable.
When he was at the Domain Lord level, he saw the fragments of the "Nine Tribulations Scripture" and made the same choice. Now that he's in the Duan Dong He, Lin Yan has hardly thought about it at all.
"This is the path I've chosen." Lin Yan pursed his lips and said softly, "My life should have its own scenery, and it should never... use Luo Feng's life as the price for me to move forward."
"Even if I die on this road to the top because of my choices, I still demand that I have a clear conscience."
He had taken the Loch God Water Lake and Jie Fanzi's token, but these were minor details that had almost no impact on Luo Feng and could even help him grow faster.
For example, this "Golden Smoke Marsh" will lose its current meaning in the future.
"I use the 'known' to make my path smoother, and the 'unknown' to give me more anticipation for the future," Lin Yan thought to himself, then shook his head and smiled. "Thinking about it, it's pretty absurd... How come that guy is catching up again? There's really pressure!"
Lin Yan smiled and said he felt pressured, but he felt very relaxed inside.
"I need to work harder too."
After obtaining the "Golden Smoke Marsh," Peak Domain Supreme Treasure, Luo Feng met with Lin Yan in the Virtual Universe and received news that greatly surprised him.
Lin Yan actually said... he saw a powerful figure in the Flame Ice Domain who possessed a wing Supreme Treasure very similar to the Slaying Wu Wings!
The Slaying Wu Wings consist of six pairs of wings. Luo Feng only possesses two pairs, and there is one more pair in the Winged Space. The whereabouts of the other three pairs of wings are still unknown.
If it were to acquire another pair of wings, its power would undoubtedly be greatly enhanced!
Pity--
Luo Feng never imagined that his trusted friend would deceive him without batting an eye.
Lin Yan considered that taking Jie Fanzi's token in advance wouldn't have much other impact, but it might prevent Luo Feng from going to the Flame Ice Domain. That's why he made up this reason to lure him there, since there was no way to verify such a thing anyway.
Similarity doesn't prove anything; Golden Smoke Marsh and Golden Line Aurora Mirror are similar too!
Upon hearing this, Luo Feng immediately took it to heart.
Lin Yan rested in the Primordial Universe for three months, and during this time he also paid attention to some of the people around him.
With the resources at his disposal, King Tong Nan and Longyu King helped them break through to the Universe Venerable a long time ago, and also prepared some Supreme Treasure for them. Now they are forming a team with True Yan Venerable and adventuring together on the Original Star.
These two friends, who had faced life and death together millions of years ago, seem to have gone through a cycle of reincarnation, and their cooled passion has been rekindled.
Lin Xiao and Lin Ci's reputations gradually grew among the Myriad Races in the universe.
Lin Du ventures into some dangerous Cosmic Secret Realm, continuing his research.
Thunder God has also broken through to immortality.
Lin Yan even made a special trip to the Mothership Planet to transmit the 64 Secret Pattern Diagram of the Secret Pattern Diagram Flow to the Mu Xing Country Lord.
Although the Mu Xing Country Lord perished once, Operation Rule erased some of her memories, her Life Gene returned to a hundredfold, but the Strongest Talent Secret Method she obtained was preserved.
This Secret Pattern Diagram Flow should be helpful to her.
Three months later—
Lin Yan was ready and left the Primordial Universe, stepping once again into the vast Cosmic Sea!
