Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

"According to what Master said, the Ancestor of the Thunder Ancient Country was dedicated to researching various Primordial Bloodlines, and this is one of the special creatures cultivated by the Ancestor," Luo Feng carefully examined the scale beetle.

From the many inheritances and resource information in the Inheritance palace, Luo Feng had a preliminary understanding...

The vast world governed by supreme rules is like a giant Braided Cage. Places such as the Land of Origin and the three thousand Primordial Cosmoses are all within a complete Braided Cage. Outside of the Braided Cage, where there is Primordial Force and Primordial Materials are produced, the creatures born in that space possess Primordial Bloodlines!

The upper echelons of the Imperial Clan of the Thunder Ancient Country, the vast majority cultivate with the help of Primordial Bloodlines.

"This is a Primal Chaos Realm creature, yet it possesses a \'Ten Directions World form\' that is more profound than the Trinity form?" Luo Feng extended a finger, and a thread of silver silk flew from the tip of his finger, entering the golden scale beetle\'s mouth and quickly siphoning a drop of blood.

Luo Feng began to dissect this drop of golden blood.

"It\'s already dead, and yet the blood is still so stable?" Luo Feng\'s fingers, edged with sharpness, sliced the blood into particles.

"This golden scale beetle, each particle contains powerful spirituality, indeed stronger than a perfect Primal Chaos Layer Creature. No wonder it can fight against a Godly King without being at a disadvantage."

Snap.

As a golden particle was dissected, nine smaller particles appeared inside.

These nine smaller particles were divided into three parts, with each part consisting of three merged particles.

The three parts maintained a certain distance, rotating slowly but steadily.

"Could it be this kind of \'Ten Directions World form\'?" Luo Feng was astonished as he watched, "The \'Ten Directions World form\' recorded in the \'First Calamity of the Eight Tribulations Life Form\' within the \'Body of Life Lineage\' is divided into seven types, and this one before me is indeed among them."

The description in the inheritance wasn\'t as good as witnessing it with one\'s own eyes.

One large particle contained nine smaller particles. Every three of the nine smaller particles merged into one group, and the three groups were forever rotating and chasing each other, yet they never touched.

Even with Luo Feng\'s comprehension at the Pinnacle of the Primal Chaos Realm within the Body of Life Lineage, he found value in studying such a form.

"Wonderful, wonderful, truly wonderful."

Luo Feng watched excitedly, "These three particles merge perfectly, also forming a Trinity form."

The Trinity form also has many variants.

Perfect Primal Chaos Layer Creatures consist of one large particle, with internal Yin and Yang particles forming the Trinity form.

Whereas the fundamental construct of the golden scale beetle\'s \'Ten Directions World form\' also has three particles fused together, representing a type of Trinity form.

"Two different Trinity forms..."

Luo Feng observed carefully, cutting open to watch as the collapsing Trinity form revealed countless solidifying Primal Chaos Secret Patterns.

"The Trinity form can also form a cyclical system with each other?" Luo Feng diligently studied the underlying mysteries, his understanding of the Trinity form improving.

...

During his time in Chu Capital, Luo Feng received top-notch inheritances and precious resources, naturally immersing himself wholeheartedly in cultivation. He couldn\'t be bothered to get involved in the various disputes of Chu Capital.

"What?"

Marquis Chu Ji and Marquis Chu Yuan were originally drinking and chatting leisurely when they simultaneously received a mission issued by the Imperial Clan, shocking them as they received it.

"Heavenly level?" Marquis Chu Yuan\'s ugly features twisted even more, his eyes bulging.

"A Heavenly Task?" Marquis Chu Ji was also somewhat dazed.

Being of the Imperial Clan, the highest level of tasks they had access to were normally emperor level.

However, every once in over a thousand eras and even tens of thousands of eras, there would occasionally be a higher \'Earthly Task\'.

And over even longer periods, spanning hundreds of thousands of eras or more, there would occasionally be a \'Heavenly Task\'. A Heavenly Task was also the highest level of tasks that a first-class marquis of the Imperial Clan could encounter in their lifetime.

This task was issued specifically for the members of the Imperial Clan. Guest Elders did not qualify to receive it.

"To think there would be a Heavenly Task." Marquis Chu Yuan and Marquis Chu Ji looked at each other.

"Big brother," Marquis Chu Yuan said with fervent eyes, "if we rank high in completing this Heavenly Task... the resource rewards we\'ll receive will be substantial, truly terrifying."

"We must prepare well for this task," Marquis Chu Ji said, his voice tinged with madness at the moment.

That day, all the emperor level and first-class marquises of the Flame Wind Ancient Country\'s Imperial Clan received the Heavenly Task.

It all started when the Primogenitor Yan Feng sent back a batch of precious resources, and according to the rules of the Imperial Clan, the thirteen Emperors and those in the Second Realm of Godly King were allocated a certain amount of resources according to their status, with no need for competition.

But for those in the First Realm of Godly King and the first-class marquises, competition was fierce.

The outstanding ones would receive more.

The mediocre would receive less.

...

Within the mysteries of a Virtual World palace, thoughts converged.

"Flame Wind Ancient Country has obtained a batch of rather precious resources, Heavenly Level resources! The Godly Kings of the First Realm and first-class marquises of the Flame Wind Ancient Country\'s Imperial Clan all have to compete. The distribution of resources will be based on ranking."

"They will need assistance in competing. We can help." Discover more stories at M V L

"If those Godly Kings of the First Realm and the first-class marquises voluntarily give us a portion of the resources they obtain. The thirteen Emperors of the Flame Wind Ancient Country won\'t be able to stop them."

"Helping out and taking a small reward in return is perfectly justifiable!"

The Land of Origin had many ancient existences that had long been coveting the two great Ancient Countries.

The resources of the two great Ancient Countries were so vast, that the Primogenitor Yan Feng and the Primogenitor of the Thunder Ancient Country, having obtained a huge amount of resources they themselves did not need, left a great deal for their own people.

"In terms of talent and potential, the elite cultivators selected from the countless cultivators of the entire Land of Origin definitely surpass the Imperial Clan of the two great Ancient Countries."

"But it\'s just by virtue of cultivating with an enormous amount of precious resources, they toughly raised thirteen emperors of the Flame Wind Ancient Country and nine Monarchs of the Thunder Ancient Country. In terms of resources, what we use doesn\'t even come close to one ten-thousandth of those emperors and Monarchs."

"Serving as Guest Elders, we toil and accumulate tens of millions of Merit Points, but that\'s still far from being enough for one Ultimate Realm inheritance."

"The Ultimate Realm inheritances of the two great Ancient Countries start at thirty million Merit Points each! Those exorbitantly priced Primordial Bloodline inheritances, or those cultivated with the assistance of Primordial Force, are even more expensive, costing upward of hundreds of millions of Merit Points."

"And there are many resources that are simply not available for exchange."

These ancient existences were very envious.

To serve as Guest Elders to the two great Ancient Countries, fighting to the death, and to exchange for an inheritance was very difficult.

Whereas the Imperial Clan of the two great Ancient Countries could casually choose inheritances and had piles of various precious resources. These ancient existences, though clearly very strong, did not dare to rob openly. They could only use some legitimate means to make the Imperial Clan willingly give them some.

"Fortunately, there is Yuan, who has given us, wanderer cultivators, the same competitive opportunity as the Imperial Clan. Otherwise, we would never emerge victorious."

"Without Master Yuan, the two great Ancient Countries would only exploit us more."

After these ancient existences chatted for a while and exchanged intelligence, they dispersed.

Luo Feng exited his cultivation retreat to welcome the visiting Emperor Chu Yu.

"Brother Chu Yu, what\'s the matter? You seem to be in a hurry," Luo Feng asked with a smile. Generally, a message would suffice, but this time Emperor Chu Yu insisted on a face-to-face conversation.

"My Flame Wind Ancient Country\'s Imperial Clan has issued a Heavenly Task. Are you aware?" Emperor Chu Yu inquired.

"Heavenly Task?" Luo Feng was somewhat surprised.

With his status, he also had access to some common high-level intelligence of the Land of Origin and naturally knew that the highest level task for the marquises of the Imperial Clan was the \'Heavenly Task,\' which afforded the most terrifying resources.

At that moment, Luo Feng did not yet know that when his master, Emperor Chu, obtained that batch of significant resources, he had summoned him first.

"Possibly every few hundred thousand eras, there comes a Heavenly Task," Emperor Chu Yu said a bit anxiously, "I\'ve only recently become a first-class marquis, and I encountered a Heavenly Task. Alas! Among the seven first-class marquises of Emperor Chu\'s Lineage, my strength is the weakest, and this competition is very troublesome."

"Very troublesome?" Luo Feng looked at him.

"The Heavenly Task is divided into three subtasks," Emperor Chu Yu explained, "The first two subtasks are personal tasks that I must undertake on my own. Only for the third subtask... can I seek external assistance."

Luo Feng nodded in understanding.

Two subtasks depended on oneself? The weakest, Emperor Chu Yu, indeed suffered a disadvantage.

"If this Heavenly Task had been delayed by one hundred eras, I would have reached the Pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm," Emperor Chu Yu said, also somewhat helplessly. Even with the assistance of a plethora of resources for cultivation, there was still some distance to the Pinnacle of the Primal Chaos Realm.

"No matter what, you have to fight for it. If you miss this time, who knows when the next Heavenly Task will be," Luo Feng said.

"Among the three subtasks, one is the battle for the Blood Spirit Golden Pearl," Emperor Chu Yu stated, "For this task, I can only trouble Brother Luo He, as only your strength holds hope for competing for it."

Luo Feng understood.

In the entire Land of Origin, the Blood Spirit Golden Pearl was produced only in one place, located at the border area between the two great Ancient Countries.

"Don\'t worry," Luo Feng nodded.

"As long as Brother Luo He helps me complete this task, for other tasks later on, I won\'t trouble Brother Luo He anymore," Emperor Chu Yu stated, as long as this Heavenly Task was completed well enough and he secured enough resources.

Even if he lay idle for tens of thousands of eras afterward, it wouldn\'t matter.

Luo Feng smiled and said, "Brother Chu Yu, rest assured, I will give it my all for this task."

It was because of him that Luo Feng had come to Chu Capital to serve as a Guest Elder and had been taken in as a Direct Disciple by Emperor Chu, earning merits for Emperor Chu Yu.

Merely for this relationship, Luo Feng also needed to help earnestly.

"Remember, after the Blood Spirit Golden Pearl is born, it must be delivered back to Chu Capital within ten days, for after ten days, the Blood Spirit Golden Pearl will become a \'Blood Spirit Poison Pearl,\' and won\'t count towards the task\'s Merits," Emperor Chu Yu stated.

Luo Feng nodded.

"There are seven first-class marquises from Emperor Chu\'s Imperial Clan Lineage," Emperor Chu Yu continued, "Although I\'m the weakest in strength, I\'ve already reached the top tier of the Primal Chaos Realm. Moreover, my two personal tasks are also tests of comprehension, temperament, and many other aspects, so I\'m not necessarily the bottom ranker"

"As for the battle for the Blood Spirit Golden Pearl, among the seven first-class marquises, not many can obtain the assistance of those transcendent from the Primal Chaos Realm."

"I estimate I could fight for the third or fourth place," Emperor Chu Yu said.

Seven first-class marquises.

From the first to the seventh place, the resources allocated were vastly different.

If he could fight for a middle position, Emperor Chu Yu would be very satisfied.

"Leave the Blood Spirit Golden Pearl task to me," Luo Feng said, obviously unsure about Emperor Chu Yu\'s final ranking. Who knew how Emperor Chu Yu would fare on his own two personal tasks?

"Here is the detailed information about the Blood Spirit Golden Pearl task. I\'ll send it to you," Emperor Chu Yu sent it over immediately.

Luo Feng received the task and immediately reviewed it.

Now was the preparation period for the task, and in one thousand days, the Heavenly Task would officially begin.

The whole Heavenly Task would last one era.

After one era, the overall ranking would be calculated.
