Its body, like a vast world, was entirely crimson, with flames rising around it. It possessed eight pairs of enormous wings, and its four massive hooves seemed to support the entire world. Its single, enormous eye was coldly fixed on Luo Feng's direction.

"Rumble~~~" Every movement was difficult for it, because chains were binding it. These chains came from nothingness and permeated every part of its body and soul, making it difficult for it to resist.

It stared in Luo Feng's direction, its eyes filled with terrifying killing intent.

Luo Feng even saw traces of the past on it, traces of its growth, from a weak and insignificant Calamity Beast to a creature that grew step by step, just like the process that the "Three Thousand Void Calamity Beast Diagram" went through.

The traces of the past that I see now are much more detailed and terrifyingly oppressive than those in the "Three Thousand Void Calamity Beast Diagram".

"This is an image of a powerful being watching Calamity Beast." Luo Feng understood somewhat. "That powerful being was able to see traces of the Calamity Beast in the 'past time and space.' And he recorded and preserved this image."

If someone were weak, upon seeing the Calamity Beast, they would likely be driven to spiritual annihilation and die instantly.

The ability to see the traces of the Calamity Beast in the past at a glance was beyond Luo Feng's imagination.

Even the emperor of the Yan Feng Ancient Nation observed the Calamity Beast Shadow and drew Calamity Beast Diagram of them.

The Calamity Beast Diagram is only a part of the real Calamity Beast.

"The Calamity Beast is actually bound?" Luo Feng was somewhat shocked. The chains extending from the void clearly made it difficult for the Calamity Beast to break free.

"Even with my God King Second Realm Mind Will, I can only see the Calamity Beast Shadow. The Calamity Beast's strength is definitely Above God King Ultimate Realm. Such an existence is still bound and trapped."

While Luo Feng was shocked, he also instantly deduced...

The more powerful beings who bind the Calamity Beast should be from the Xing Zhe' side. After all, the Calamity Beast Shadow originated from the Yan Feng Ancient Nation.

"Judging from the growth trajectory of the Calamity Beast, it shouldn't be one of the Xing Zhe," Luo Feng thought. "It should be a terrifying life form outside the Cage."

Luo Feng had to admit it.

Just by observing the growth trajectory of the Calamity Beast, Luo Feng felt admiration. Yet, there were still even more powerful beings capable of restraining the Calamity Beast.

"I must have a sense of awe." Luo Feng silently advised himself, "Even terrifying beings like the Calamity Beast, who are Above God King Ultimate Realm, are still bound. And I... am only a minor Chaos Realm right now."

Luo Feng carefully memorized this video.

After all, it takes a lot of effort to watch it once, and the Inheritance Hall gives enough time.

The original "Three Thousand Void Calamity Beast Diagram" was a painting, but this one is a time-space image, much more realistic and detailed. Luo Feng was immersed in it, carefully experiencing and observing it.

"Only those with Undying Heart can overcome endless tribulations." After careful observation, Luo Feng gained a deeper understanding of the Undying Heart of the Calamity Beast.

"It can abandon everything, even its own life, only by being willing to sacrifice everything... through repeated rebirths and transformations, has it reached this point." Luo Feng shook his head slightly. "But precisely because of this, it has even abandoned its former friends."

"It even devoured its friends who had shared its hardships on several occasions."

Luo Feng saw much more detailed traces of growth than those in the "Calamity Beast Diagram".

In its final stages, the Calamity Beast had become incredibly powerful, with several followers. Yet, driven solely by the desire to become even stronger, the Calamity Beast continued to eliminate its friends one by one, killing and devouring them.

It became more powerful.

On the road to growth, it doesn't need partners; it only needs to become stronger.

Finally, one day, it was captured! Before it could even see who made the move, a mere shift in space and time had imprisoned it in a prison world, binding it with void chains from which it could never escape.

"This is the fate of the Calamity Beast?" Luo Feng looked on, somewhat sighing. "They were captured just because of a shift in spacetime? They didn't even see who their opponent was?"

"It has a strong Mind Will, but in the end, it comes down to strength."

"If it doesn't have enough strength, it will also become a prisoner."

This also serves as a warning to Luo Feng.

Defeating an enemy solely through Mind Will is extremely difficult; it requires a significant advantage in Mind Will, as well as an advantage in secret techniques of willpower. The advantages of the "Lie Yuan Art" diminish as one's strength increases.

He was able to completely annihilate some Chaos Realm because, on the one hand, the will of the Chaos Realm cultivators was much weaker than his own, and on the other hand, the "Lie Yuan Art" had a great advantage.

However, the gap between the willpower secrets cultivated by some ancient beings on the Origin Continent and the "Lie Yuan Art" will narrow.

"Even the emperors of the Yan Feng Ancient Nation and the monarchs of the Thunder Ancient Nation have never been known to kill a God-King through sheer willpower." Luo Feng understood this point. "Mind Will is ultimately just one factor in cultivation. Comprehending the Great Dao... is the foundation of cultivation."

Witnessing the Calamity Beast Shadow strengthened Luo Feng's resolve to pursue the Dao, and made him realize that there are no shortcuts in cultivating the Great Dao! The help he received from the "Lie Yuan Art" would eventually weaken. On the other hand, it also made Luo Feng realize that there are always higher levels to reach, and he should always maintain a sense of awe.

As time passed, Luo Feng became even more focused on comprehending the Great Dao.

Twenty-seven centuries had passed since Luo Feng arrived in the Chu Capital.

The hidden space of the Original Universe Origin Source Land the universe.

Luo Feng's Divine Power Clone faces the complete Life Origin Great Path, and can see the six major branches of the Life Great Path at a glance.

"I have already cultivated the Life Body lineage to the peak of the Chaos Realm." Luo Feng looked at the Life Origin Great Path in front of him. "I have collected seven sets of perfect Chaos Layer biological materials, but I still haven't been able to comprehend the 'Trinity Form'."

The first tribulation of "Eight Tribulations Lifeform" records three major branches: Life Spirituality, Life Body, and the Life Source. Among them, Life Spirituality and Life Body have now been advanced to the peak of the Chaos Realm.

Before becoming a God-King, there is no further improvement.

"I've been trying to understand this for so long, but I still can't figure it out. Do I really have to become a God King to comprehend the Trinity Form?" Luo Feng thought. "Perhaps I can try consuming a Primal Chaos Crystal Spirit Fruit."

Luo Feng originally planned to reach the peak of all five major branches he had studied. After that, he would consume the Primal Chaos Crystal Spirit Fruit and use the remaining four Primal Chaos Crystal Spirit Fruits to attempt to break through to the God King level.

Currently, only two major branches have reached the peak of the Chaos Realm.

"As Master said, five pills are needed for the Chaos Realm and five pills for the God King First Realm," Luo Feng thought. "To reach a higher level in the Transformation Method, taking one pill is worthwhile."

Refining the Transformation Method can also deepen one's understanding of the two major branches.

"Luo He, come to my Emperor Chu Palace."

Suddenly--

Luo Feng's mind received a telepathic message from his master Emperor Chu.

"This is the first time in over twenty centuries that Master has summoned me on his own initiative?" Luo Feng was somewhat surprised, and his true body naturally rushed to the Emperor Chu Palace immediately.

******

Emperor Chu Palace.

Emperor Chu sat on the ground, his figure imposing, yet his brows were slightly furrowed.

"The Ancestor sent back a batch of resources, all for his own clan." Emperor Chu pondered. Not long ago, all thirteen emperors of the Yan Feng Ancient Nation were summoned by the Yan Feng Ancestor and bestowed with a large amount of resources.

This batch of resources is divided into thirteen portions, one portion for each of the Thirteen Royal Lineages.

As instructed by the ancestor, these resources were naturally intended to nurture the clan.

Such was the nature of the Yan Feng Ancestor; he naturally cultivated his own people in various ways, while recruiting outsiders as guest retainers. Guest retainers had to work hard to earn merit in exchange for benefits.

As for training disciples? Whoever trains the disciples provides the resources.

"This time, the Imperial Clan elites will all receive a batch of resources," Emperor Chu thought. "Of my three disciples, the other two often come to see me and ask for my guidance. But my third disciple, Luo Feng ... hasn't come even once in the past twenty-odd epochs."

Compared to the Imperial Clan elites, Emperor Chu was also very close to his three Direct Disciples.

In Emperor Chu's view, since the Imperial Clan elites receive resources, he should also provide some resources to his Direct Disciple.

"Master."

Luo Feng walked in from outside the hall at this moment and bowed respectfully.

"Since you became my disciple, more than twenty centuries have passed, and you haven't come to ask me for guidance even once." Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. "Do you have any questions about cultivation?"

Luo Feng respectfully said, "Master, I have some questions about the Life Origin Great Path."

Emperor Chu's eyelids twitched slightly.

The Life Origin Great Path?

He doesn't understand!

"Destruction Origin Great Path? Did you comprehend it smoothly?" Emperor Chu asked, as this was his forte.

"Things are going quite smoothly so far," Luo Feng said.

Although the Heaven Splitting Lineage and the Dark Heaven Lineage, as recorded in "Seventy-Two Slaying Blades," are only at the top level of the Chaos Realm, the main problem is that they cannot directly face the complete Origin Dao. Moluo Sa is ultimately only at the Chaos Realm. Therefore, his progress is slower than that of the Life Origin Great Path.

Emperor Chu nodded, and could only ask, "What confusion do you have about the Life Origin Great Path?"

Luo Feng waved his hand, and a gray particle appeared in front of him. The gray particle split open, revealing two particles inside that were a fusion of yin and yang.

"This is the most basic particle form of a perfect Chaos Layer being— the Trinity Form," Luo Feng said. "I have also studied it quite a bit, but ultimately I have not been able to fully comprehend it."

Emperor Chu felt a headache after reading it.

He focused solely on cultivating the 'Destruction Origin Great Path', and had some knowledge of the Material Origin Great Path, the Karma Origin Great Path, and the Space Origin Great Path, but he was only at the level of an ordinary God-King.

As for the Life Origin Great Path? He truly did not understand it.

"This disciple is very confused," Luo Feng said. He had devoted most of his energy to this over the past twenty-odd epochs. "Please guide me, Master."

"Trinity Form? That's a fairly basic body composition." Emperor Chu said as he quickly thought, his thinking speed as an emperor was unimaginable.

Call.

Emperor Chu suddenly waved his hand, and a Golden Scale Armor Insect corpse appeared in the hall. "This is the corpse of a Chaos Realm creature. Its body structure is the 'Ten Directions Ten Directions World Form,' which is more advanced than the 'Trinity Form.' It can fight against God Kings even if it is of a higher level, just by using its body. If you study the more advanced 'Ten Directions World Form' carefully, you might be able to understand it by going back to study the simpler 'Trinity Form.'"

Luo Feng stared blankly at the corpse of the Golden Scale Armor Insect in front of him.

The corpse exudes a powerful aura.

"This corpse?" Luo Feng asked in confusion, as he had never heard of such a creature before.

"The Thunder Ancestor devoted himself to researching various Primal Chaos Bloodline, and this is one of the special creatures he cultivated," Emperor Chu said. "Go back and study it. After you have studied it and accumulated more knowledge, and then take the Primal Chaos Crystal Spirit Fruit, you may be able to comprehend the Trinity Form in one fell swoop."

"Disciple understands." Luo Feng understood and immediately put away the corpse.

"Go ahead, go ahead," Emperor Chu waved his hand.

Luo Feng immediately and respectfully withdrew.

"I originally planned to give him some resources. This Golden Scale Armor Insect corpse is worth Million Merits, so that can be considered as giving him resources." Emperor Chu was satisfied. Since he had taken on a disciple, he was unwilling to mistreat him.
