Great God Heaven Exchange

Regarding what Azure Profound Monarch had said, Luo Feng felt rather dazed.

He also roughly understood why the Nine Nether Great Emperor needed to nurture them. The biggest reason likely came from the Chaotic Space-Time Sea:

The Devouring Life within it would devour and consume this world's laws. In particular, as the influence of the Eternal Dao weakened, the greater the number of Devouring Life, the more this world's perception of its laws would be weakened in ways unseen. Some laws that affected life would also change as a result, making the entire world bloodthirsty, frenzied, and less intelligent.

After returning to his residence, Luo Feng was unable to calm down for a long while.

The things within the Chaotic Space-Time Sea seemed to be identical to the Heaven of Annihilation in Primordial Chaos Space. Luo Feng had always harbored a doubt: why did the Nine Nether Great Emperor not act? Why did the three Apex Realms of Primordial Chaos Space not act?

He could understand Primordial Chaos Space. After all, Great Destruction existed there, and the three Apex Realms could only passively confine themselves in place, using their Dao domains as defensive regions.

But the Nine Nether Earth had no Great Destruction. With the Nine Nether Great Emperor's abilities, he should have been able to resolve the things within the Chaotic Space-Time Sea. Could it be that this also involved the restraints of the laws?

Even someone like the Nine Nether Great Emperor, who had reached his realm through the Emperor Way, was suppressed by the laws as well?

He simply could not understand it. The higher-level things in this world were, the more unfathomable they seemed.

"Dark Nether Realm, Chaotic Space-Time Sea... Above the source of the Nine Hells River lies the Dark Nether Realm, and between the Dark Nether Realm and Primordial Chaos Space is the Heaven of Annihilation..." That information had all been revealed in the past by Ke Er Te of the Dark Realm Race. Luo Feng found it inconceivable. How had the Dark Realm Race learned of it?

Thinking about it now, could the Chaotic Space-Time Sea be a region belonging to the Heaven of Annihilation?

That was entirely possible.

"There's no use thinking too much about it now." Luo Feng shook his head and could only bury these questions deep within his heart.

"Luo Feng." Following the voice, Luo Feng saw Xu Xin approaching with a smile. "What is it? Even a lifeform at your level has worries?"

"It's nothing." Luo Feng smiled and shook his head. "How is your comprehension of the Soul Dao? You shouldn't be too far from the God Heaven Realm, right?"

Back in Primordial Chaos Space, especially after Lian Xin emerged, Xu Xin's comprehension had clearly improved greatly compared to before. Coupled with Luo Feng's influence, her cultivation had soared all the way upward.

Her comprehension of Eternal Fate had progressed the fastest and had now reached perfection. Only the Soul Dao had been much slower; she was still some distance from perfecting her soul.

"The Soul Dao isn't easy. I'm still far from it. Though I've been influenced by you, my comprehension is still somewhat inferior to theirs." Xu Xin pursed her lips.

By now...

The nine lords of Dao Peak Continent, including Hong, had all reached the God Heaven Realm. Among humanity's experts, a group including Yuan Zu, Chaos City Lord, Zhen Yan, and Lie Gu was also advancing toward the God Heaven Realm. With Luo Feng's resources, as long as their comprehension was sufficient, their progress was still quite fast.

"Once you reach the God Heaven Realm, I'll have Molosa take you all out to see this Nine Abyss World. It may not be as beautiful as Primordial Chaos Space, but it's still very nice." Luo Feng smiled.

Yuan, Hong, Jin Chuan, Star Radiance, and the others had all chosen to explore the Nine Abyss World after the celebration in Primordial Chaos Heaven for the two newly born Great God Heavens. For them, this world centered on slaughter was equally challenging.

Luo Feng did not interfere with the human Primordial Chaos Realm cultivators either. By now, they had basically all gone out to explore. Once they ventured out at the Primordial Chaos Realm, Primordial Chaos Heaven would not actively shelter them, making the difficulty extremely high. Their lives would likely be far more exciting than they had been in Primordial Chaos Space.

Xu Xin, on the other hand, mainly focused on cultivation.

Luo Feng himself was nearing Dao Seizure, so he naturally would not send another avatar out. Luo Feng knew it, and Xu Xin knew it as well. Thus, she had spent this time accompanying him. His parents and the others he had brought over from Primordial Chaos Space, along with early teachers such as Zhen Yan, were also by Luo Feng's side.

Within Knife River Hall, there was not much distance between them.

Luo Feng greatly enjoyed such days, and his heart became calmer than ever before. Dao Seizure was only to make life safer and better, to bring everything under his control. And there was also the pinnacle he wished to pursue. Though this journey forward was dangerous, it was never dull, constantly giving him motivation.

Within Luo Feng's residence in Knife River Hall, Luo Feng was playing chess with Zhen Yan when he suddenly raised his head slightly.

"What happened?" Zhen Yan noticed Luo Feng's movement.

Luo Feng smiled. "A friend has arrived." As he spoke, he left behind only an avatar to continue playing chess with Zhen Yan, while his true body vanished immediately.

High in the skies of Primordial Chaos Heaven.

Not only Luo Feng, but Azure Profound Monarch, Wind God, and the other Great God Heavens also appeared one after another in the void.

The newcomer was Ermons, the second ancestor of the Void Refining Ancient Race. Beside Ermons stood another figure—Ya Mi Xiu Fu.

"Sword Demon, Blade Demon." Ermons looked toward Azure Profound Monarch and Luo Feng.

The other Great God Heavens were inconsequential in their eyes.

"Sword Demon, Blade Demon, I, Ya Mi Xiu Fu, apologize to you here for my previous offenses." Ya Mi Xiu Fu spoke as well, his voice quite loud in a display of sincerity.

Luo Feng and the others were slightly surprised. When they had encountered Ya Mi Xiu Fu in the Void Refining Ancient Race before, his attitude had been nothing like this. They had not expected him to be so capable of yielding and adapting.

"Ermons, could it be that you've gathered enough treasures this time?" Azure Profound Monarch smiled. There was no need for him to respond to all that miscellaneous nonsense. He treated Ya Mi Xiu Fu's apology as nothing more than air. In his eyes, someone like Ya Mi Xiu Fu would only grow weaker and weaker.

"Yes. After scraping together what we could, we barely managed to gather the amount you requested. Although our Void Refining Ancient Race is one of the Ten Great Emperor Races, cultivating to our level consumes an enormous amount of treasures. You are Great God Heavens as well, so I believe you understand this deeply." Ermons said.

"Didn't Ya Mi Xiu Fu obtain an Emperor Weapon in Asura Purgatory? With that Emperor Weapon, plus the Emperor Weapon in your hands, Ermons, wouldn't that make two? I don't think that should be difficult for you. When I named my conditions before and asked for two Emperor Weapons, that was not excessive." Azure Profound Monarch said with a smile.

Ya Mi Xiu Fu's face twitched. This Sword Demon truly wanted their lifeblood.

Fortunately, the Chaotic Space-Time Sea was about to open this time. If he killed enough Devouring Life within it and earned sufficient merit, he could exchange for one himself.

But the Chaotic Space-Time Sea had remained unopened for far too long. Once it opened this time, the amount of Devouring Life inside would surely be terrifying. Without an Emperor Weapon, there was a high chance he would perish—or, at the very least, fail to earn enough merit to exchange for an Emperor Weapon.

"Sword Demon, you said before that other treasures could be used as substitutes. We have also brought sufficient sincerity and hope to fulfill the conditions on both sides. This is our sincerity for this visit. You may take a look." Ermons merely smiled and waved toward space. A vast number of treasures appeared at once, densely packed together, numbering more than six hundred.

The blood drops of the Ten Great Emperor Races were all stored in jade bottles, each one radiating a powerful aura. There were simply too many of them.

There were also all sorts of miraculous treasures. Spatial treasures were the most numerous, but there were also treasures related to time, flames, lightning, and more.

There were even items similar to Primordial Chaos Spiritual Treasures, along with special materials.

Part of them had been excavated from Asura Purgatory, including one Asura Fruit.

Ermons watched with a smile. Perhaps the Sword Demon and Blade Demon would be greedy and still consider this insufficient, but the Great God Heavens of Primordial Chaos Heaven would surely be tempted upon seeing so many treasures.

It was rumored that an Asura Fruit was a treasure that could greatly increase one's strength, even allowing an ordinary Great God Heaven of the Celestial Race to reach the level of a race ancestor. That one Asura Fruit alone was likely precious enough—two Emperor Weapons could create two Great God Heaven battle powers of the Emperor Race as long as one's comprehension of the Eternal Dao was sufficient, while an Asura Fruit, though slower, could also produce one race-ancestor-level battle power.

"Sword Demon, our Void Refining Ancient Race is willing to pay so much because we sincerely wish to reconcile with you. Our reputation has already been ruined, and we will not pursue the matter further. The price we are paying now is sufficient as well. Two Emperor Weapons would at most give you two more Great God Heaven battle powers of the Emperor Race in the short term. One Asura Fruit of mine can achieve the same." Ermons said.

"Qing Ge, what do you think of these treasures?" Luo Feng transmitted his voice.

"The value of Emperor Weapons should far exceed our imagination. They cannot be compared to Dao Weapons. In a sense, they are completely comparable to Innate Primordial Chaos Spiritual Treasures. Still, the Void Refining Ancient Race is indeed showing enough sincerity by offering so much. What Primordial Chaos Heaven needs is not actually Emperor Weapons, but treasures that can nurture them into Great God Heavens." Azure Profound Monarch transmitted back to Luo Feng. From his words, he clearly basically agreed to these terms.

If they truly forced the Void Refining Ancient Race to hand over two Emperor Weapons, they would certainly be unwilling. But for the Void Refining Ancient Race to produce so many treasures had already met Azure Profound Monarch's expectations.

The Void Refining Ancient Race had likely come with the intention of befriending Primordial Chaos Heaven as well.

"The number of treasures is barely acceptable. For the sake of your first race ancestor, I can agree to this exchange. However, I must still warn you: if you offend Primordial Chaos Heaven again, you should know the consequences." Azure Profound Monarch looked at Ermons and gave a cold warning.

At that moment, Ze Ji Er Qi flew into the void alongside Ke Er Te. The two had also been summoned by Azure Profound Monarch, mainly regarding the Dark Realm Race lifeforms. They should know something about how many Dark Realm Race lifeforms remained.

When Ermons saw Ke Er Te and the others, he understood Sword Demon's intentions.

"Sword Demon, then accept these treasures first." Ermons smiled. After watching Azure Profound Monarch put away all the treasures, he waved again. A great number of lifeforms appeared at once. Most still possessed a trace of life, while only nine had fallen.

These lifeforms bore some resemblance to Ke Er Te and Ze Ji Er Qi. There were nearly a hundred of them.

However, these Dark Realm Race lifeforms had extremely weak auras.

"Sword Demon, these Dark Realm Race lifeforms only have incomplete souls. Their bloodline power and source blood are basically still intact. Given time, they can slowly recover. However, after releasing them, I have one request: I hope the Dark Realm Race will not seek revenge against us. We have released them, which is already a display of great sincerity. Even if we had killed them, their people would not have known. We are releasing them entirely out of respect for you, Sword Demon." Ermons looked at Sword Demon and tossed the matter to Azure Profound Monarch.

Azure Profound Monarch nodded slightly. "Ke Er Te, Ze Ji Er Qi, let this matter end here. From now on, your Dark Realm Race may be free, and there is no need to dwell on the grudges of the past."

"Thank you, Sword Demon. I can make the decision on this matter. We will not dwell on past grievances." Ke Er Te immediately said. He understood Sword Demon's meaning clearly. The other side was showing Sword Demon respect, so Sword Demon naturally had to return that respect. If Sword Demon lost face, it would be difficult to bring this matter to an end.

"You should be able to do that, right?"

Azure Profound Monarch then looked toward the nearly hundred Dark Realm Race lifeforms.
