The Emperor Takes a Disciple (Part 2)
Standing inside the cave abode, Luo Feng looked at the Mystic Flood Dragon General high in the sky and said without hesitation, "It is my good fortune that the Emperor is willing to accept me as his disciple, and I am naturally willing."
Luo Feng was prepared for the Emperor to take on a disciple, and he had thought it over carefully.
Among the thirteen emperors of the Yan Feng Ancient Nation Royal Clan, Emperor Chu possessed terrifying strength. His recorded exploits throughout history have consistently swept aside other ancient beings. He was relatively low-key and had no notorious reputation, generally focusing on his cultivation.
Luo Feng was willing to become Emperor Chu's disciple.
After all, he knew very well that with his master's help, he could avoid many detours.
"Alright, come with me." Mystic Flood Dragon General finally smiled, and with a wave of his hand, an invisible wave enveloped Luo Feng, and they flew together to the Emperor Chu Palace.
"Brother Luo He, congratulations." During the flight, Di Chu Yu also offered his congratulations.
"It's all thanks to Brother Chu Yu for bringing me to Chu Capital," Luo Feng said gratefully.
"Haha... With Brother Luo He's strength, he would rise rapidly even without me," Di Chu Yu said.
Soon, led by Mystic Flood Dragon General, Luo Feng and the others arrived in front of the Emperor Chu Palace.
"You may all step back. I will take Luo He to see the Emperor," said Mystic Flood Dragon General.
"Yes." The guards withdrew, Di Chu Yu stood Emperor Chu Palace with a slight smile, without following them any further.
Immediately afterwards, Luo Feng followed Mystic Flood Dragon General into the palace, which seemed to blend into the darkness of chaos.
A moment later.
Luo Feng and Mystic Flood Dragon General entered an ancient hall together and immediately saw a burly figure sitting on the floor inside. This burly figure sat there as if he were the center of the endless world.
It was as if heaven and earth were to perish, but he would not.
His breath was more terrifying than the power of heaven and earth.
Looking at Luo Feng... gave Luo Feng the feeling of facing the Life Origin Great Path.
Luo Feng understood that the person in front of him should be Emperor Chu, one of the thirteen emperors of the Imperial Clan.
"Your Majesty," Mystic Flood Dragon General bowed, "Luo He has arrived."
The Emperor nodded slightly, and Mystic Flood Dragon General immediately withdrew from the main hall.
Only Luo Feng and the Emperor remained in the hall.
"Luo He," Emperor Chu smiled at Luo Feng, "I've recently taken a closer look at your past. You come from the Original Universe?"
Luo Feng was startled, but he didn't hide anything and immediately bowed. "Yes, I do come from the Original Universe."
Emperor Chu smiled approvingly and said, "The beings in the Original Universe are incredibly weak. It is very difficult for them to grow from weak to true gods. You have reached the Chaos Realm Transcendence... that is indeed very good."
"Don't be nervous. The countless ancestors of today's Xing Zhe almost all came from the Original Universe. They came to the Origin Continent and multiplied over countless years to create so many beings," Emperor Chu said. "The original inhabitants of the Origin Continent were almost all in the Eastern Domain."
Luo Feng was aware of this as well.
"I'll ask you again, are you a reincarnated Xing Zhe?" Emperor Chu asked again. Even though the Yan Feng Ancient Nation had sophisticated methods, it could not break through the operation of the Supreme Rules.
"No." Luo Feng shook his head.
Emperor Chu nodded.
"Among the thirteen emperors, I have taken the fewest disciples, only two." Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. "When I take disciples, I value talent first and compatibility between master and disciple. You have good talent, and I also like your personality, so I decided to take you as my disciple."
Emperor Chu said, "Before you become an apprentice, think carefully about whether you really want to become an apprentice."
"Taking a master is Great Karma."
"The relationship between master and disciple is no less than that of blood relatives," Emperor Chu said. "Masters choose disciples, and disciples choose masters! Think carefully. Once you become my disciple, some of the most powerful beings on the Origin Continent will no longer be able to accept you as a disciple."
Luo Feng certainly understood that the master-disciple relationship was Great Karma!
Of the most powerful beings on the Origin Continent, how many would even consider him? Moreover, Luo Feng has his own temperament; Luo Feng is unwilling to become an apprentice to some of the most heinous criminals.
"Disciple has thought it through." Luo Feng immediately knelt down, touched his head to the ground, and performed a deep bow. "Disciple Luo Feng greets Master."
"Luo Feng?" Emperor Chu was taken aback.
"Luo Feng is my real name. I've been using the name Luo He because of some karmic ties." Now that Luo Feng has decided to become an apprentice, he will no longer hide his real name.
"Hahaha... Good, good, good." Emperor Chu laughed upon hearing this. "From today onwards, Luo Feng, you will be my Emperor Chu's, third Direct Disciple!"
"Luo Feng, do you need my help to resolve the karmic entanglements you're involved in?" Emperor Chu asked.
"No need, this disciple can handle it," Luo Feng said.
Emperor Chu nodded in satisfaction. "Since you are entangled in karma, I will keep your real name a secret for you." Emperor Chu was very happy to see his disciple solve his own problems.
"Since you are becoming my disciple today, I have prepared three gifts for you." Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. "The first gift is the two inheritances you have chosen: the first tribulation of the Eight Tribulations Lifeform and the first volume of the Seventy-Two Slaying Blades. Once you have mastered them, you will receive the subsequent inheritances for free."
"Of course, the inheritance I can give you for free will not surpass the God King Ultimate Realm," Emperor Chu said.
Luo Feng was pleasantly surprised to hear this.
All the content of these two inheritances will be obtained for free up to the God King Ultimate Realm?
The first tribulation of the "Eight Tribulations Lifeform" and the first volume of the "Seventy-Two Slaying Blades" that I currently possess are both at the God King First Realm, each worth approximately 100,000 merit points. If I were to advance further... this level of technique at the God King Second Realm would require around 3 million merit points. And this level of technique at the third level of the God King realm (Ultimate Realm) would require a staggering 100 million merit points.
In order to obtain these methods, some of the Divine King's retainers had to fight to the death for the Yan Feng Ancient Nation.
These two lineages are worth around 200 million merits! As long as you reach the required level, you can obtain them for free! This is the difference between outsiders and Direct Disciple.
"This is my second gift to you." Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng, and with a flick of his hand, took out a stone box. Inside the box were ten pale red fruits. Just smelling the fragrance of the fruit, Luo Feng felt his soul being nourished, and his thinking speed increased several times. "These are 'Primal Chaos Crystal Spirit Fruit,' which were given to me by the Ancestor. They are no longer of any use to me, so I'm giving you ten of them."
"This Primal Chaos Crystal Spirit Fruit is the fruit of a fruit tree cultivated using Primal Chaos Crystal Jade. It has a miraculous nourishing effect on the soul. After consuming it, one becomes more in sync with the Supreme Rules and one's comprehension is greatly enhanced," Emperor Chu said. "This is not a product of the Source World, and its quantity is extremely rare. It cannot even be exchanged for merit, so be sure to use it sparingly."
"I suggest that you consume five fruits when you reach the Chaos Realm level, and then consume five more fruits when God King First Realm."
"Yes, Master." Luo Feng sensed his master's sincerity.
Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng: "What weapon do you use most often?"
Luo Feng flipped his hand and took out the Blood Shadow Blade: "It's this blade."
Emperor Chu glanced at it. "Is it a God-King level sword blank?"
Emperor Chu thought for a moment, then flipped his hand and took out a clump of seven-colored soil. He casually tossed it, and the seven-colored soil landed on the Blood Shadow Blade, which eagerly swallowed it completely in the blink of an eye.
"Originally, your blade prototype would have reached its peak at the God King First Realm," Emperor Chu said. "Now, however, its potential has increased significantly, and it is expected to reach the God King Ultimate Realm."
"However, I've provided the main materials, but you'll need to prepare some of the auxiliary materials yourself. Because the most crucial aspect of a weapon blank is its nurturing by your own hands. This is the detailed method for nurturing a weapon." Emperor Chu spoke, a stream of light landed on Luo Feng, revealing a Secret Method for nurturing weapons.
Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng and said, "The Ancestor has decreed that even Direct Disciple must accumulate merit through their own efforts."
"Master has already done so much for his disciple." Luo Feng was very grateful.
Each of these three gifts is extremely valuable.
"I'm not good at teaching disciples." Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. "I'm not good at the Life Origin Great Path, so you'll have to rely on yourself. As for the Destruction Origin Great Path ... that happens to be my path as well. If you have any questions, you can ask me."
Luo Feng nodded. "Disciple understands."
"Is there anything you want to ask now?" Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng.
"Not at the moment," Luo Feng shook his head.
His own Destruction Origin Great Path is still very weak, not even reaching the top level of the Chaos Realm. He is still in a period of rapid growth; he should only ask questions when he truly encounters a bottleneck and progress becomes difficult.
"Alright." Emperor Chu smiled and nodded. "As my Direct Disciple, you have priority in choosing many special missions. They will be assigned to the First-Class Marquis of the Imperial Clan afterward."
"Understood." Luo Feng nodded.
"Go, cultivate diligently, and become a God-King as soon as possible. None of my disciples... have become God- Royal Capital," Emperor Chu sighed.
"This disciple will certainly strive to do his best." Luo Feng immediately bowed and said, "This disciple takes his leave."
Luo Feng immediately left the hall.
Looking at the chaotic darkness outside the main hall, Luo Feng felt somewhat excited.
The ten 'Primal Chaos Crystal Spirit Fruit' given to me by my master Emperor Chu, are so potent that even just smelling them greatly aids in cultivation. Imagine how much better they would be if I actually took them! This is the first time I've encountered such a rare treasure since arriving on the Origin Continent!
Luo Feng couldn't wait to head back, wanting to try one first.
Inside the main hall, Emperor Chu watched Luo Feng leave.
"My third Direct Disciple." Emperor Chu looked at him and shook his head slightly. "Unfortunately, my abilities are limited, and I am unable to properly guide my disciple's cultivation."
Like Emperor Qing, one of the thirteen emperors, because of his high level of cultivation, he can quickly identify the problems of his disciples, even those who teach different paths, and guide them to a good method.
What about Emperor Chu? He can only provide more precious resources! The rest is up to the disciples themselves.
"What good is taking on disciples?" Emperor Chu gazed at the endless world outside the main hall. "This Source World will eventually come to an end. When that time comes, how many will still be alive?"
"Even the progenitor walked in darkness. Emperor Qing has also embarked on this path, and he may also be able to help the progenitor in the future."
"The rest of us are indeed strong enough on the Origin Continent, but what are we if we leave this Source World?"
"And my disciples probably don't even have the right to leave the Source World."
"Cherish your connection with them in this Source World." Emperor Chu gently shook his head, closed his eyes, and began to cultivate in seclusion.
