Chaos Sea

Chapter Twenty-Six

Fifty million light-years from Azure City stood a gigantic wormhole. Passing through this wormhole was the shortest route from the Imperial Capital to You Mountain.

Suddenly—

Ripples of space spread through the void within the wormhole.

An alien being in the form of a strange beast appeared.

The alien was nearly ten thousand meters tall, with two legs and four arms. Its head was ferocious and terrifying, its huge mouth lined with two long fangs, while its eyes were scarlet and bewitching. His entire body was clad in dark crimson armor. Of his four arms, two were thin and long, while the other two were thick and somewhat shorter.

With his appearance, the surrounding space seemed to have been dyed scarlet.

"This wormhole should be the closest one to Azure City. There are still fifty million light-years left. Traveling by teleportation will be quite fast—I should arrive in about two months. Even if Galaxy leaves Azure City during those two months, I'll still be able to catch up to him quickly."

The one who had traveled tirelessly to this place was the Saint Realm expert Mad Demon, whom Palace Master Lihua had hired.

When Palace Master Lihua contacted Mad Demon and offered a high-grade Saint level supreme treasure as payment for capturing an Eternal True God, Mad Demon had naturally been tempted.

Mad Demon had lived through countless ages as a Saint Realm existence. He was now at the initial stage of the Four-Origin Saint Realm, with three Origin Mysteries already cultivated to major accomplishment. Although he had only grasped a little of the fourth Origin, dealing with an Eternal True God—even one who had comprehended an Origin—would still be effortless for him.

A high-grade Saint level supreme treasure. Galaxy's life is truly valuable. Mad Demon thought, then teleported away. When he reappeared, he was already several light-years away.

Far away in Azure City, tens of millions of light-years from there, Luo Feng knew nothing of this.

Luo Feng's true body was within the Star Tower, studying the fifth layer of secret engravings on the Chaos Golden Wings.

Under the pressure from "Teacher Evil Eye," Luo Feng naturally wanted to raise his strength as quickly as possible. Aside from laws and insights into Origin Mysteries, the fastest path available to him now was undoubtedly activating the fifth layer of the Chaos Golden Wings and the seventh-layer spatial secret engravings of the Star Tower.

In comparison, the fifth layer of the Chaos Golden Wings should have been easier.

By Luo Feng's estimation, he had already fused seven of the ten fundamental laws—metal, wood, water, earth, time, space, and light. He had also faintly touched upon the fifth-layer secret engravings. With a little more time, he should be able to activate them.

The Chaos Golden Wings were a domain-type Mechanical Flow supreme treasure suited for Eternal True Gods. The first four layers could all be activated below the Eternal True God level, while only the fifth layer required the Eternal True God level. Luo Feng had a feeling that it would bring him a surprise. Based on his experience with the first four layers, the fifth layer was highly likely to be the "Chaos Domain" of the Saint Realm, the Chaos Masters.

The Chaos Domain was far stronger than the Thoughtless Universe. Within a Chaos Domain, even a Thoughtless Universe would collapse.

The universe originated from primal chaos. When a Chaos Domain was controlled by a Saint Realm expert, the Thoughtless Universe naturally lost its meaning. However, nothing was absolute. If a Miniature Universe was supported by an Origin, it would naturally be much more stable. As long as one's insights into Origin Mysteries were high enough, it could even overpower a Chaos Domain.

Within the Inheritance Space, the ten-thousandfold time acceleration remained active.

Luo Feng focused most of his attention on fusing the seven laws of metal, wood, water, earth, time, space, and light. Once he fused them to major accomplishment, he estimated that he would be able to activate the fifth layer of the Chaos Golden Wings. He was currently stuck at this bottleneck, yet he felt that he could break through at any moment.

Finally, after a hundred years within the Inheritance Space...

"I did it." Luo Feng was delighted. He casually slashed with his palm like a blade, and a streak of blade light flashed through the void. Seven different powers of law appeared at once, intertwining as though they were one, yet seeming separate as they reflected different powers of law. It was remarkably mysterious.

With the seven laws fused to major accomplishment, together with the Destruction Origin Mystery, it was enough to create a peak seventh-rank blade technique.

Of course, the most important thing was the Chaos Golden Wings.

Within the Star Tower's space.

The six pairs of wings behind Luo Feng spread freely. Divine power, burned to its limit by the third level of Annihilation and transformed by Yuan, surged madly into every pair of wings. The profound golden patterns on the wings shone brilliantly, and their violent, powerful aura affected the surrounding space-time.

"Fifth layer, activate!" Luo Feng's will followed the secret engravings of the wings and directly activated the fifth layer.

Buzz!

Centered on Luo Feng, everything within a radius of several hundred light-years—within the vast Star Tower space, free of suppression by the Origin Continent's space—transformed into an endless Chaos Domain. Within the domain, the power of primal chaos was denser and more powerful than in the Universe Ocean, and its suppressive force was clearly stronger. Even a sixth-rank Eternal True God would likely be crushed and annihilated outright.

"It really is a Chaos Domain. Although it's a simplified version, it's more than a hundred times stronger than the Golden Kingdom." Luo Feng understood that this was merely a simplified Chaos Domain. Compared to some powerful Saint Realm experts, it might still fall far short.

However, it was enough to rival the middle and upper stages of the First-Origin Saint Realm.

"With this Chaos Domain, my close combat should be enough to make me invincible beneath the Saint Realm." Luo Feng did not feel that he was exaggerating in the slightest. The Star-Seizing Hand within the Thousand Treasures Pavilion was a purely offensive Mechanical Flow supreme treasure. A sixth-rank Eternal True God could rely on it to become invincible beneath the Saint Realm. The Chaos Golden Wings should be more advanced and versatile than the Star-Seizing Hand. It was only natural that Luo Feng could now achieve invincibility in close combat.

Of course, Luo Feng's comprehension of the Destruction Origin Mystery was not low either. It had already reached the minor accomplishment stage. Combined with the Chaos Domain of the Chaos Golden Wings, it was equivalent to the middle and upper stages of the First-Origin Saint Realm.

"The fourth layer was the Golden Kingdom. As for this fifth layer, I'll call it the Chaos Sea." Luo Feng came up with a name.

The Chaos Sea was the highest layer of secret engravings on the Chaos Golden Wings, the strongest form of the Chaos Golden Wings.

Luo Feng could finally activate it perfectly. At this moment, even the spirit of the wings transmitted jubilant cheers.

The Chaos Golden Wings had drifted through the Universe Ocean for countless ages. At last, they could once again display their former glory.

Compared to the Chaos Golden Wings, the Star Tower was far more difficult.

The seventh-layer secret engravings of the Star Tower could be activated by an Eternal True God, but Luo Feng felt that their complexity was a hundred or even a thousand times greater than that of the Chaos Golden Wings. Even with his current strength, he still felt far from sufficient.

Without any clue where to begin, Luo Feng could only continue studying blade techniques first.

With the seven laws fused to major accomplishment, perhaps he could try raising the Path of Nine Heavens to the level of a peak seventh-rank Eternal True God blade technique.

Time passed. Soon, another ten years passed in the outside world, while ten epochs passed within the Inheritance Space.

"Morosa has returned." Luo Feng sensed Morosa coming back from outside. His true body immediately ended its cultivation, and Luo Feng appeared out of thin air within his private residence in the City Lord's Manor.

"Master." Morosa said respectfully.

Luo Feng looked at Morosa. With his aura unrestrained, Morosa was steadier and stronger than when he had first broken through, clearly lacking the previous instability in his aura.

"It seems you ate quite a lot." Luo Feng smiled.

"Master, not that much—only a little over sixty. As you instructed, they were all far from Azure City." Morosa chuckled foolishly. After breaking through to the Saint level, Morosa could teleport across a vast range, so in accordance with Luo Feng's request, he had teleported to relatively distant places.

"Master, City Lord Jing of Jing City challenged you ten years ago. Have you not accepted the challenge?" Having returned from outside, Morosa had naturally heard some rumors and could not help asking.

"City Lord Jing challenged me?" Luo Feng was surprised.

That was right. Luo Feng had remained in seclusion throughout these past ten years, naturally shutting off all communications. Even the two stewards in his residence had been unable to enter, so he had naturally been unable to learn any news from the outside world. Of course, such a situation was normal. It was common for a domain lord to sever all communications while away or in seclusion, and it could not be considered a refusal to fight.

Luo Feng restored communications and soon received City Lord Jing's challenge, messages from the two stewards, and many other communications.

"City Lord Jing actually challenged me? He chose a location outside the city?" Luo Feng laughed. Previously, he had specifically sought City Lord Jing's help in investigating information about Teacher Evil Eye. City Lord Jing's attitude at the time had even made Luo Feng feel that he had inwardly accepted submission. Yet in the blink of an eye, he had challenged him.

"This City Lord Jing seems to be an ambitious man as well. But if he wants to test me, then I can only indulge him." Luo Feng chuckled. Perhaps the deterrence from his battle against Evil Eye had not been enough. Everyone merely believed that he had happened to counter Evil Eye.

Perhaps it was time to kill a chicken to warn the monkeys.

Without the slightest hesitation, Luo Feng accepted the challenge, leaving the time and place for City Lord Jing to decide.
