Luo Feng had created "First Arrival." Only one year and two months had passed in the outside world, while roughly twelve thousand years had elapsed in the inheritance space.
But Luo Feng was still not satisfied with being at the peak of the fifth tier.
The fifth tier of an Eternal True God was merely an intermediate standard among Eternal True Gods. Most Eternal True Gods could reach this level.
"First Arrival" was an advanced version of the blade technique "Nirvana Rebirth."
Luo Feng naturally intended to incorporate more laws into "Nirvana Rebirth," "Light of Water and Fire," "Path of Nine Heavens," "Gate of Life," "Radiant Guardian," and "Light of Hope," deducing them all to the Eternal level. Meanwhile, "Gate of Life" was the perfected blade technique of "Curved Blade."
"Light of Water and Fire" primarily centered on the Laws of Water and Fire. The two complemented each other, and once other laws were incorporated, its power became exceptionally terrifying.
Luo Feng could draw inspiration from "Light of Water and Fire," but he could not completely follow its line of thought.
Using "Light of Water and Fire" as a prototype, with water and fire as the foundation, he would merge in various other laws. Fire would serve as the spear, water as the shield, emphasizing fire's violence and water's unending flow. Such a move was best suited for defensive attacks, capable of trapping enemies while still possessing formidable explosive power.
Of course, the most powerful thing remained the Destruction Origin.
The Destruction Origin was the foundation of Luo Feng's current strength. It suppressed all forms of power. So long as the opponent did not possess an absolute advantage, the Destruction Origin could gain the upper hand.
Without the fusion of the Destruction Origin, "First Arrival" might only have been an ordinary fifth-tier Eternal True God blade technique. But after fusing with destruction, it became a peak fifth-tier blade technique. The difference between the two was immense.
Drawing upon his own insights, the Primordial Boundary Tablet, and the ultimate techniques of successive Duan Dong Rivers, Luo Feng continuously incorporated them into his own blade techniques. He sparred with the previous Duan Dong Rivers again and again, constantly refining his blade techniques...
"It lacks the flavor of the Law of Water."
"It is too violent."
"The blade is not fast enough. Its power is insufficient."
"..."
Luo Feng constantly summarized his experiences, absorbed the lessons of every defeat, then improved himself before fighting again.
Year after year passed.
Before he knew it, more than thirty years had passed in the outside world.
Universe Ocean, Sitting Mountain Holy Land Universe.
Crash!
Without warning, the cosmic membrane cracked on a massive scale, layer after layer peeling away. The chaotic airflow of the Universe Ocean was no longer steadily absorbed through the cosmic membrane. Instead, it poured directly inside in a violent torrent.
At the same time, every living being still residing within the mini universe died silently.
Without the universe origin to sustain them, continents, star systems, and planets instantly lost their original trajectories. Swept up by the endless violent chaotic airflow, they suffered cataclysmic destruction as though the apocalypse had descended.
Everything was lifeless and still.
Vast stretches of land, stellar fragments, and the corpses of living beings drifted through space.
At the very moment the cosmic membrane of the Sitting Mountain Holy Land Universe cracked, another bizarre event unfolded in the Universe Ocean.
"Lord Qiu Dan, I truly envy you. Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, you would become an eternal existence as well? If I had listened to you back then and led my race to seek refuge with Mountain Guest, my future days would have been free of worry too." Outside the Universe Boat, three Masters of the Universe sat chatting leisurely as they waited for treasures to emerge.
"Hahaha, it was just luck." Lord Qiu Dan smiled. At the end of the primordial universe era, when the great destruction had loomed and he had failed to seek refuge anywhere, Mountain Guest had ultimately accepted him. Who could have expected that Mountain Guest would soon pass the reincarnation cycle as well, creating the fourth Holy Land Universe of the Universe Ocean? This had made many of Lord Qiu Dan's friends deeply envious.
Entrusting oneself to a Holy Land Universe was equivalent to eternal existence.
If Luo Feng had not taken the initiative to attack Purple Moon Holy Land, all the powerhouses of the Universe Ocean would have unanimously believed that Purple Moon Holy Land could never be destroyed.
"I don't have your kind of luck..."
Another Master of the Universe had just begun to respond when, before he could finish, he suddenly discovered in shock and terror that Lord Qiu Dan beside him had silently collapsed. His life aura was completely gone, yet his divine body was entirely unharmed.
"Lord Qiu Dan."
"Lord Qiu Dan."
The other two Masters of the Universe instantly rushed over to Lord Qiu Dan and discovered in horror that he was already completely dead.
At the same time, several Masters of the Universe entrusted to Mountain Guest's Holy Land Universe silently collapsed at other locations in the Universe Ocean, their life auras entirely extinguished.
Everyone traveling alongside Masters of the Universe from the Sitting Mountain Holy Land Universe was horrified by this sight.
Such a silent collapse either meant that one of their avatars had been soul-killed, causing all avatars to die, or that there was a problem with the universe to which they were entrusted.
Yet some of them had no avatars at all, and they had still died during their adventures.
Lord Qiu Dan, for example, had no avatar.
The three Masters of the Universe had been in the same region. The other two were unharmed, while only Lord Qiu Dan had died. That was completely unreasonable.
"Lord Qiu Dan is dead. Could something have happened to the Sitting Mountain Holy Land Universe?" The other two Masters of the Universe were unwilling to believe it. After all, they had never heard of a Holy Land Universe being destroyed after its creator had passed reincarnation.
"Lord Banshe, were you traveling with Lord Qiu Dan?" Not long after Lord Qiu Dan's death, Lord Banshe, one of the Masters of the Universe accompanying him, received a message.
"Yes," Lord Banshe replied. "But he is dead."
The other side fell silent for a moment before replying, "Lord Taman is dead too."
After that, several more Masters of the Universe contacted Lord Banshe to confirm the matter.
The Masters of the Universe who had emerged from the Sitting Mountain Holy Land Universe were all dead, and they had all died in the same way. No matter how unwilling they were to believe that a Holy Land Universe could be destroyed, it was now a fact.
"Proceed at full speed to the Sitting Mountain Holy Land Universe and sweep up its treasures."
Once it was determined that the Sitting Mountain Holy Land Universe had most likely been destroyed, the Masters of the Universe from all sides who first learned of the news either rushed over personally or informed Masters of the Universe and strongest beings from their own races.
This explosive news swept through the entire Universe Ocean like a hurricane.
Especially after some people went to the Sitting Mountain Holy Land Universe to confirm it, those who had harbored doubts were instantly stunned with horror.
"A Holy Land Universe can be destroyed too?"
Purple Moon Holy Land Universe had been destroyed by Luo Feng back then. That was entirely different from collapsing on its own.
Purple Moon Holy Land and Eastern Emperor Holy Land had existed for countless reincarnation cycles. The races of the Universe Ocean had no idea exactly how many, only that these two Holy Land Universes were eternal existences that had endured through innumerable reincarnation eras.
The destruction of the Sitting Mountain Holy Land Universe shattered their understanding.
A Holy Land Universe was not eternal!
All races were shaken. Some sighed, some secretly rejoiced, and some gloated over the misfortune.
When Mountain Guest had just broken through back then, the various races had done everything possible to curry favor with him, hoping their races could gain the qualifications to entrust themselves to his Holy Land Universe. Yet barely thirty years had passed, and this Holy Land Universe had been destroyed. If Mountain Guest had agreed to their requests back then, they likely would have had no path but death as well.
Whoosh!
A massive figure teleported outside the Sitting Mountain Holy Land Universe.
Seeing endless chaotic airflow stream into the universe through the cracks in its cosmic membrane, the figure shed tears.
It was True God Puti.
"Teacher..." Puti found it difficult to accept this fact for a moment. His mind was in turmoil.
Scene after scene involuntarily surfaced in his mind...
"Teacher..." Puti murmured.
At the same time.
Flame Emperor of the Flame God Race also appeared outside Mountain Guest's Holy Land Universe. Looking at the cracked cosmic membrane, he could not help bursting into wild laughter.
Compared to Puti, Flame Emperor was clearly far more crazed.
"Hahaha, you biased old bastard, so you have a day when you fall too! What does transcending reincarnation matter? Didn't you still fall? Yet I, Flame Emperor, am alive and well! Hahaha..." Flame Emperor's mad laughter rolled through the endless chaotic airflow and spread far and wide.
It felt wonderful!
At this moment, Flame Emperor felt incomparably exhilarated.
He had feared Mountain Guest. Even though Mountain Guest had been biased, Flame Emperor had not dared show the slightest defiance and could only act according to Mountain Guest's wishes. Now that Mountain Guest was dead, the resentment buried deep in his heart finally burst forth.
"You ungrateful wretch!"
Far away, Puti heard Flame Emperor's voice and saw him laughing madly. At that moment, Puti could no longer restrain the killing intent in his heart.
Boom!
His divine power burned directly. Puti suddenly teleported in front of Flame Emperor, wielding an ancient long staff as he fiercely smashed it toward him.
With the enhancement of the Reincarnation Armor, the power of this strike had astonishingly reached the peak tenth tier, the limit of a True God.
"What?!"
"You old bastard!" Flame Emperor was terrified and utterly unable to react.
It had all happened too suddenly, filling him with instinctive fear. Setting aside the sudden ambush, even if he had faced it head-on, he had no confidence in blocking such a powerful attack.
Bang!
The staff struck Flame Emperor directly, sending his entire body flying like a cannonball.
"What? I lost thirty-one percent of my divine body in an instant." Flame Emperor was horrified. "When did this old bastard become so strong? The power of that strike is absolutely among the very strongest in the entire Universe Ocean."
In an instant, Flame Emperor realized that he could not fight him.
Flame Emperor was warlike, but he feared death too!
Puti clearly wanted his life. That one strike had already severely wounded him.
Run.
Flame Emperor immediately made his decision, summoning a palace-type True God treasure and hiding inside it.
The surrounding void had been frozen by Puti, leaving him unable to teleport. He could only hide within the palace-type treasure and slowly fly away.
Puti also possessed a palace-type True God treasure, but since the two were of comparable level, he naturally could not use it to suppress a treasure of the same grade. Thus, Flame Emperor was not afraid of being suppressed.
"This old bastard is far too strong. He has hidden himself well." Watching Puti continue his pursuit through the treasure, Flame Emperor was filled with lingering fear. More than thirty percent of his divine body had been lost in one strike. Four strikes would likely be enough to kill him.
"You ungrateful wretch, can you hide for now, but can you hide forever?" Puti's killing intent was boundless.
With another strike, he blasted Flame Emperor's tower-type treasure away again.
Flame Emperor hid inside the treasure without suffering the slightest harm, and he could not help sighing in relief.
"Old bastard, you want to kill me? With just you?" Though Flame Emperor felt stifled, he sneered inwardly. There are no dangerous lands nearby. I have no need to fear him. Let him strike as much as he wants.
After attacking several times in succession, Puti discovered that he truly could not do anything to Flame Emperor while he hid within the treasure, so he could only give up.
"Hmph. You ungrateful wretch, you had better pray I do not encounter you within a dangerous land. Otherwise, that will be the day you die." Puti's voice rumbled out. If they were within a dangerous land, he was still highly confident in killing a True God with a palace-type supreme treasure.
After all, Luo Feng had killed Star Master Hao Lei that very way back then.
"With just you?" Flame Emperor sneered. Sensing that the spatial blockade had been lifted, he still feared death and immediately teleported away, afraid that Puti might suddenly change his mind.
Before you continue
