Montanaro

The Meng'an Tribe was a small tribe within the Azure Domain. It had more than a hundred thousand tribesmen, two Void True Gods, and over a hundred True Gods. Everyone else was at the Lord of Laws level or below.

At that moment, An Sai's divine power incarnation had already appeared inside the residence of the Meng'an Tribe's leader, "Montanaro."

"You said those two adventurers appeared from a spatial vortex?" The leader, Montanaro, had a flash of sharp light in his dark blue eyes.

"Yes. An Ruiqi and I both saw it with our own eyes." An Sai nodded.

Montanaro nodded and said with a smile, "An Sai, you did well. Inviting them to visit my Meng'an Tribe was the right thing to do. You did very well!"

"You may withdraw for now. When the time comes, I'll personally go out to welcome them." Montanaro gave the order.

"Yes!" An Sai's divine power incarnation withdrew, but he was somewhat puzzled by his leader's reaction.

An Sai did not know Luo Feng's origins, but Montanaro had made some guesses. Montanaro knew far more secrets than An Sai did.

They should be people from the Universe Ocean who have passed through reincarnation. For two people to transcend reincarnation together at once, they must be extraordinary. I wonder if they're truly geniuses. If they're at the genius level, then my Meng'an Tribe will have rendered great service. I have to tell the Domain Lord about this. Montanaro secretly thought this as a communication token appeared in his hand.

Within the Azure Domain, the "Domain Prefecture City" in charge of governing the entire region was Azure City.

The city lord's residence of Azure City was where the Domain Lord lived.

The Domain Lord of the Azure Domain was also the city lord of Azure City. He possessed the highest authority in the domain and was also its most powerful existence. It was rumored that he was already infinitely close to the Chaos Master realm. However, life in the You Mountain Empire was relatively stable, and the Azure City Lord rarely acted. The outside world could only speculate about his strength.

Inside a grand hall in the city lord's residence, a humanoid lifeform sat leisurely on a throne that stood nine kilometers tall. Beneath his blood-red armor, black currents resembling black hair surged with an evil aura. His head was difficult to make out, completely concealed by the sinister black currents.

He was the Domain Lord of the Azure Domain—Evil Eye Domain Lord.→

"Hm? Montanaro?" Evil Eye Domain Lord sensed a fluctuation from the communication token and transmitted indifferently, "Montanaro, what is it?"

Evil Eye Domain Lord listened in silence, then immediately sat upright.

"Transcendent Reincarnator." Sharp light flashed through Evil Eye Domain Lord's eyes as the black currents covering his head churned. "Montanaro, confirm their identities for me. If they're truly Transcendent Reincarnators, bring them to Azure City. Your Meng'an Tribe will receive great credit, and I will naturally reward you handsomely."

In an instant, the black currents were completely drawn into his head.

A ferocious, enormous mouth appeared on Evil Eye Domain Lord's face. Strangely, he had three eyes on his head, all of them deep black and without pupils. The third eye on his forehead even radiated a blood-black glow.

Those capable of becoming Transcendent Reincarnators have immense potential. I hope you won't disappoint this Domain Lord. Evil Eye Domain Lord secretly anticipated it.

Elsewhere.

Luo Feng and Morosa entered An Sai's mechanical flow ship and hurried toward the Meng'an Tribe.

Within the Origin Continent, the fastest flight speed of a True God was only around the normal speed of light in the Primal Universe, far slower than a mechanical flow ship. A mechanical flow ship could erupt with speeds ten, a hundred, or even a thousand times faster than the speed of light in the Primal Universe.

Unlike the Primal Universe, the Origin Continent, like the Universe Ocean, had no dark universe. Even after reaching the speed of light in the Origin Continent, one was still moving within the original space. Thus, the higher a ship's speed limit, the more exorbitant its price.

From the Duandong River Lineage, Luo Feng learned that the speed of light in the Origin Continent was ten thousand times that of the Primal Universe. Only God King-level existences could break through this speed limit. It was extraordinarily difficult even for mechanical flow ships to break through it. Every mechanical flow ship capable of exceeding the speed of light in the Origin Continent cost as much as a God King weapon. It was incredibly expensive. Even if a Void True God or Eternal True God spent their entire fortune, they might not be able to afford such a ship.

The Blue Molybdenum Crystal Mine was more than ten trillion kilometers from the Meng'an Tribe. Traveling at the current speed of twenty times the speed of light in the Primal Universe, they spent a full seven or eight days—calculating according to Earth time—before finally reaching the Meng'an Tribe.

The Meng'an Tribe was located within a vast ancient forest.

According to An Sai and An Ruiqi, most of the ancient trees in this forest were primordial ancient trees. However, one of them was the plant lifeform "Stone Bone Divine Tree," which the leader of their tribe, Montanaro, had cultivated at tremendous cost. The Stone Bone Divine Tree possessed strength comparable to the limit of the True God level and could even withstand attacks from Void True Gods. In the ancient forest, it had protected generation after generation of Meng'an Tribe tribesmen.

Luo Feng gazed from afar at the enormous ancient forest ahead. Every tree stood thousands or even tens of thousands of kilometers tall, and some were over a hundred thousand kilometers tall. Within the forest, quite a few tribesmen with appearances similar to An Sai and An Ruiqi could be seen.

At the very front of the tribe, the massive leader of the Meng'an Tribe, "Montanaro," seemed to have been waiting for quite some time. When he saw the ship appear, he hurriedly went forward to welcome them.

"I am Montanaro. Welcome, fellow adventurers!" Montanaro's voice was rough and hearty. Seeing Luo Feng and Morosa emerge from the ship, he displayed his goodwill and welcome. "My Meng'an Tribe has always been hospitable and dislikes fighting. Every adventurer who arrives receives the highest welcoming ceremony from my Meng'an Tribe."

As he spoke, Montanaro waved his hand. A golden avenue formed from endless golden light extended directly from him to beneath the feet of Luo Feng and Morosa.

An Sai and An Ruiqi were both dumbstruck.

An Sai in particular had no idea that welcoming adventurers involved the Meng'an Tribe's highest etiquette.

Luo Feng was also somewhat shocked. They really were too hospitable.

"Just call me Galaxy. This is my friend, Morosa." After introducing himself, Luo Feng had also learned the language used by the Meng'an Tribe after several days of contact.

Morosa looked honest and simple, even somewhat bashful.

"Hahaha, Galaxy, Morosa, please, come with me to my residence." Montanaro laughed heartily.

Montanaro's residence was situated within the forest. Sensing its aura, Luo Feng guessed that it had been transformed from the Stone Bone Divine Tree. He was not worried that this plant lifeform could injure him, so without the slightest hesitation, he followed Montanaro into the residence.

"He actually entered without hesitation." Montanaro was secretly startled. This plant lifeform's strength had cost him almost his entire fortune, and its current strength could barely reach the Void True God level. If a Void True God were trapped inside, they probably would not be able to escape for a short time. By then, they would be at his mercy.

These two little fellows have only just passed through reincarnation. Are they young, or simply fearless? Could they truly be adventurers? Montanaro secretly wondered.

However, he did not know that Luo Feng and Morosa were merely disguised as ordinary Void True Gods. In truth, they had already reached the Eternal True God level, and Morosa was even close to the Saint level (Chaos Master). How could they fear a Void True God? Even an Eternal True God might not necessarily frighten Luo Feng.

"Come, please sit." Montanaro's body shrank until it was about the same size as Luo Feng.

A refined table and wine cups the size of bowls quickly materialized before them. Luo Feng and Morosa sat down as well.

"This is aged wine made by my Meng'an Tribe. It has been stored for a full ten Reincarnation Eras. Please, have a taste." Montanaro spoke casually.

Reincarnation Era?

Luo Feng's heart stirred. One Reincarnation Era was equal to 360 trillion epochs, and one epoch was 10,081 years. The leader of the Meng'an Tribe, Montanaro, had used the term "Reincarnation Era" when speaking to him. Clearly, Montanaro should know about reincarnation and should also know about the Universe Ocean.

Indeed, "ten Reincarnation Eras" was something Montanaro had deliberately said, mainly to see how Luo Feng and Morosa would react.

Luo Feng nodded with a smile, picked up the wine, and took a sip. It had an indescribable flavor—not unpleasant, but not particularly good either.

"How does it taste?" Montanaro pressed.

"It's somewhat different from the wine in my hometown, but it's all right." Luo Feng replied.

"Oh?" Montanaro was surprised. "Galaxy's hometown? May I ask which nation you two come from?"

Luo Feng looked at Montanaro, then smiled faintly.

"My hometown is in an incomparably distant place. It is called Earth..."

"Earth, Earth..." Montanaro muttered softly. Then his expression changed. After regaining consciousness, he looked at Luo Feng with incomparable respect and admiration.

Luo Feng waved his hand. "All right. Tell me everything you know, including everything about the You Mountain Empire."

At this moment, Montanaro had already become Luo Feng's soul slave.

When Luo Feng had just reached the True God level, he had already been able to enslave fifth-stage World Beasts. Fifth-stage World Beasts were somewhat stronger than the limit of the True God level and were close to the Void True God level. The souls of World Beasts were extraordinarily powerful, and their wills were absolutely at the Void True God level. Now that Luo Feng had reached the Eternal True God level, enslaving a Void True God was effortless.

Montanaro dismissed his other attendants and began slowly recounting everything he knew...

The founding ruler of the You Mountain Empire was the extremely ancient You Mountain God King. Under him were three God Kings and more than ten Saint-level existences, though even Montanaro did not know the exact number. The You Mountain Empire was governed by domains and was divided into nine domains. Each domain had vast lands, within which countless tribes and main cities—the "Domain Prefecture Cities"—were scattered. A tribe like the Meng'an Tribe could only be considered a small tribe, with more than a hundred thousand tribesmen and a strongest member who was merely a Void True God.

Medium and large tribes were abundant within the You Mountain Empire. Although they were not as numerous as small tribes, they had more tribesmen and greater strength. Medium tribes had at least a million tribesmen, while large tribes had tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. Naturally, they produced more experts as well. A medium tribe most likely had an Eternal True God, while a large tribe could even have several Eternal True Gods.

As for tribes with Saint-level existences, they might exist, but the probability was relatively low.

Among a million Eternal True Gods, there might not be even a few Saint-level existences.

Of course, tribes were common minor forces, while Domain Prefecture Cities were the core of each domain. Each Domain Prefecture City covered an area several light-years across and had a huge population. It also contained more super experts. Most of the Eternal True Gods in the empire lived within Domain Prefecture Cities.

The Domain Prefecture City of the Azure Domain was Azure City. The strongest person in Azure City was the Domain Lord—Evil Eye Domain Lord.

"Evil Eye Domain Lord." Luo Feng silently committed the name to memory. From Montanaro, he learned that the city lord of Azure City, Evil Eye Domain Lord, had always instructed him to pay attention to news about "Transcendent Reincarnator." Even anyone suspicious had to be reported to him. Yet after hundreds and thousands of Reincarnation Eras, he had never encountered a single Transcendent Reincarnator—until the appearance of Luo Feng and Morosa.
