Boom!
Mad Demon felt his head roar, followed by a blankness. He instantly lost consciousness, completely unaware of everything around him.
Suddenly, the nine-story Star Tower appeared above Mad Demon and directly took him inside.
At that moment, Luo Feng also had Morosa withdraw the barrier. The countless watching members of the Alien Race merely felt their vision obscured for a moment before everything returned to normal.
However, the only ones left where Mad Demon had been were Luo Feng in his white battle robe and Morosa in his silver armor. The Beast Saint Realm Mad Demon had vanished without a trace.
Morosa teleported before City Lord Jing. With one hand, he grabbed him like an eagle catching a chick. City Lord Jing could not move at all.
"Master." Morosa brought City Lord Jing before Luo Feng.
Although City Lord Jing had been captured, his consciousness remained clear. When he heard Morosa's voice and looked at Luo Feng again, his heart was already surging with shock. This Saint Realm expert was actually just a servant of Galaxy? He had not seen how Mad Demon had disappeared, but the man had clearly either died or fallen into Galaxy's hands.
Countless regrets surged into his heart in an instant.
"Take him back first," Luo Feng ordered.
Morosa wrapped Luo Feng in his divine power and teleported away.
The surrounding spectators gradually came to their senses. Those who needed to leave began departing, while a small number who had gained insights during the battle chose to enter seclusion on the spot under the protection of their fellow disciples.
This battle was destined to make Canglan famous.
The Galaxy Domain Master had first defeated the challenger, City Lord Jing, with ease. Then, when a Saint Realm expert had attacked in an attempt to kill the Galaxy Domain Master, the Galaxy Domain Master had withstood several attacks without suffering any harm. In the end, the Galaxy Domain Master had summoned a silver-armored Saint Realm expert, who fought that Saint Realm expert for tens of millions of rounds. The battle had ultimately ended with the Saint Realm expert's mysterious disappearance.
They all guessed that the Saint Realm expert had actually been killed completely. They simply did not know how. All they had were different conjectures.
The news swept through the entire Azure Domain like a hurricane and quickly spread to the other domains as well.
As for the Galaxy Domain Master's prestige, the Azure Domain had quietly recognized him as the strongest in the Nine Regions. As for the other eight regions, they probably recognized Canglan Domain as number one as well.
Luo Feng did not care much about any of this. The position of Domain Master was merely a stage in the process.
Inside the Star Tower's Sealing Space.
Mad Demon, who had been captured, was sealed and imprisoned here.
As for City Lord Jing, he had long since become part of Morosa's Origin.
"Palace Master Lihua wanted to kill me, but she never expected that the person she invited would fall into my hands, did she?" Luo Feng said calmly with a light laugh as he looked at the completely sealed Mad Demon.
Mad Demon had also regained his composure. He looked at Luo Feng with his scarlet eyes and was utterly convinced of his superiority.
He still clearly remembered that Divine Eye. With one glance, he had instantly lost consciousness. The human before him was far more terrifying than merely being an Eternal True God. In terms of will, most Saint Realm experts were probably inferior to him.
He had never even heard of an Eternal True God possessing such a terrifying secret technique.
"Why didn't you kill me directly? Why seal me here instead? This sealing treasure of yours is at least Saint level, right?" Mad Demon asked.
"I'll definitely kill you. But if I kill you directly, that would be a waste."
While Mad Demon had been unconscious, Luo Feng had investigated him. Mad Demon had only one true body and possessed no heaven-defying life-preservation secret technique like the Undying River.
Luo Feng had also considered enslaving him directly, but he was more eager to see Morosa grow. Devouring a Saint Realm expert would probably increase Morosa's strength as well.
"Morosa, I'll leave him to you. Enjoy yourself!"
Morosa's eyes lit up when he heard Luo Feng's words. To him, Mad Demon was an incomparably delicious meal.
"Come on!"
One long black tentacle after another formed from Morosa's body and shot toward Mad Demon. They wrapped around one another, quickly forming a massive black egg around him.
Inside the giant egg, Mad Demon felt countless threadlike tentacles burrowing into his body. He then discovered that his divine power and soul force were being extracted at a terrifying speed.
"No!"
Mad Demon was terrified. He had never seen a method that could extract divine power and soul force like this. Yet under the suppression of the God King level, his entire body was in unbearable pain. He wanted to struggle, but he could not move at all, allowing his divine power and soul to be drawn out bit by bit.
At that moment, he also sensed the terror of death and regretted everything deeply.
Only half a day later.
Mad Demon was already on the verge of death. In the final moment before he died, he could only roar furiously in his subconscious and curse Palace Master Lihua with the most vicious words.
"Delicious."
Morosa withdrew his tentacles, and everything returned to silence. Mad Demon had been completely erased from the world.
"Master, after this meal, my strength should increase considerably. Moreover, with a little more time, I'll be able to nurture my first Saint-level Warrior." Morosa spoke bashfully.
"Good!" Luo Feng's eyes lit up, and he immediately smiled.
Mad Demon had at least been a Four-Origin Saint Realm expert. One of him was worth several First-Origin Saint Realm experts. If Morosa still could not nurture a Saint-level Warrior after devouring him, that would be ridiculous.
Luo Feng planned to first nurture a few powerful Saint-level Warriors and then create a World Beast army. In the early stages, he did not dare expose Morosa, so a large number of World Beast Warriors would not be very useful. A few Saint-level Warriors, on the other hand, would be far more effective.
For example, if he had a Saint-level Warrior, he could send it to deal with Mad Demon without risking Morosa's exposure.
Saint Realm experts could not see that Morosa was a World Beast, but God Kings might not be unable to tell.
"There are also some materials here, all obtained from Mad Demon. See whether you can nurture two Saint-level Warriors." Luo Feng waved his hand, and a small mountain of materials appeared before him. The various materials were worth seventy or eighty thousand Qiankun Units in total, nearly equal to Evil Eye's entire wealth.
Of course, Mad Demon's wealth was not limited to this. The most valuable items were still with Luo Feng, all of them precious treasures. If they were exchanged at the Thousand Treasures Pavilion, they could probably be traded for more than a hundred thousand Qiankun Units.
"Master, according to the normal divisions, after devouring these materials, I can nurture one Saint-level Warrior equivalent to a Mid-tier Third Source. If it is a High-tier Second Source Warrior, I can nurture one and a half, nearly two. If it is a High-tier First Source Warrior, I can nurture at least three. As for an Early-tier First Source Warrior, I can nurture around six," Morosa said.
"Let's nurture a Mid-tier Third Source one first. As for the others, we'll find a way later." Luo Feng did not hesitate. Before Morosa could be exposed, quality mattered more than quantity.
Killing an Early-tier Fourth Source Mad Demon and adding some materials to it could produce a Mid-tier Third Source Warrior. This was completely an unexpected delight. With a Mid-tier Third Source Warrior as a guard, Luo Feng should have no problem preserving his life in the You Mountain Empire.
From Mad Demon's memories, Luo Feng had also learned that Palace Master Lihua was an Early-stage Fifth Source Saint Realm expert. However, she excelled at Soul Illusion and was comparable to a Sixth Source Saint Realm expert in that aspect.
However, Luo Feng had the Star Tower, and his will was also close to the Saint Realm Limit. This happened to counter Palace Master Lihua.
As long as he remained in You Mountain, Luo Feng was not particularly afraid of Palace Master Lihua.
Even Palace Master Lihua could not kill Luo Feng silently. If she could not kill him through illusion, she would not dare attack him in the city.
Moreover, Luo Feng also had a World Beast Warrior equivalent to a Mid-tier Third Source expert. World Beast Warriors had no soul will of their own and were not afraid of illusion attacks. They were pure, fearless death soldiers. Faced with a World Beast Warrior that did not fear death, even Palace Master Lihua would probably find it troublesome.
More importantly, Palace Master Lihua was currently away on a mission and would not return until a full Era of Reincarnation had passed. She was not in You Mountain. By the time that Era of Reincarnation had passed, Luo Feng probably would not fear her anymore.
During the time that followed, Morosa began nurturing World Beast Warriors with all his strength, while Luo Feng dealt with the many insights he had gained from his battle with Mad Demon.
Luo Feng had benefited enormously from fighting Mad Demon.
He had also been able to observe and comprehend Morosa's battle with Mad Demon from the closest possible distance. It had stirred many thoughts within him. In particular, regarding the mysteries of the Time Origin and Destruction Origin, countless flashes of inspiration collided in his mind, and Luo Feng felt that he could comprehend even more mysteries.
After comprehending the Time Origin, Luo Feng felt that time was actually the same as the Destruction Origin and the other Origins. In a certain sense, it was also a kind of power. It was simply that people had habitually used it to measure the changes of the past, present, and future.
But the essence of time was—
Time was everywhere. It was like metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, merely manifesting in a different form.
Before comprehending it, Luo Feng had believed that time was one whole. The time of the universe, the time of the Universe Ocean, and the time of the Origin Continent were all one whole. The reason some places could achieve Time Acceleration was that they had isolated the influence of other temporal forces.
But now Luo Feng saw that time could be one whole while also being divided into different individuals.
The time in every place could be different.
For example—
The trajectory of a blade extended from its starting point to its endpoint, and the entire process took a certain amount of time.
However, if the power of the Time Origin acted upon the blade, the blade could move so quickly that the duration was ignored. The beginning would be the end. The blade's speed would be as though it had never experienced "time."
The same applied to time's "speed." Its "slowness" was the opposite.
From the battle between Mad Demon and Morosa, Luo Feng had also clearly sensed that Mad Demon's strange ease in blocking Morosa's attacks involved the "slowness" of the Time Origin's mysteries. Under the influence of the Time Origin, Morosa's staff appeared slower to Mad Demon than it normally would, allowing him to dodge with ease...
Inside the Inheritance Space.
Luo Feng repeatedly swung the Blood Shadow Blade, comprehending the "speed" and "slowness" of the Time Origin's mysteries.
The blade light seemed fast yet slow, or slow yet fast, appearing incomparably strange.
"First Arrival" and "Water and Fire Scorch Heaven" had originally contained the Time Law. Now that the Time Law had advanced another step and reached the level of Origin Mystery, the power of these two techniques had risen by an entire level in Luo Feng's hands.
"First Arrival" had originally been only a sixth-level Blade Technique, but after the Time Law transformed into the power of the Time Origin, the move had forcibly reached the seventh level.
The seventh-level "Water and Fire Scorch Heaven" had likewise reached the eighth level.
An eighth-level Eternal True God technique possessed power equivalent to that of a technique formed by fusing at least nine Laws. Yet Luo Feng, relying on his Laws and rudimentary comprehension of two Origin Mysteries, could still accomplish this.
