Absolute Land

The Golden Horned Beast was thrown into that spatial vortex... and the colossal mountain giant, the 'Lord of Craftsman God,' standing tens of millions of kilometers tall, silently watched the spatial vortex leading to the Absolute Land. The Lord of Craftsman God was a mountain tens of millions of kilometers high, with numerous gigantic glazed arms extending from it, easily numbering over a hundred. Simultaneously, a massive eye was embedded in the mountain's rock face. “Golden Horned Beast, if you're trapped in the Absolute Land for hundreds of millions of years, don't blame me.” The Lord of Craftsman God gazed at the spatial vortex. “Everything is arranged by Teacher Zuoshanke.” “Poor fellow.” The Lord of Craftsman God sighed softly. The Lord of Craftsman God absolutely carried out Zuoshanke's instructions. In truth, with his power, his artifact refining capabilities, and his colossal mountain divine body towering tens of millions of kilometers... he truly wasn't afraid of Universe Supreme Masters! Firstly, because of his immense strength, enormous divine body, and the flying palace-type supreme treasure 'Craftsman God Star,' which allowed him to withstand Universe Supreme Masters for a long time. Secondly, he had a vast network of friends; among Universe Supreme Masters alone, several were very close to him. Many races, such as the human race and the demon race, had excellent relations with him and frequently sought his help in refining supreme treasures. Therefore, if any other Universe Supreme Master dared to 'instruct' him directly, he would simply disdain them. But Zuoshanke was different... The Lord of Craftsman God held absolute respect for Zuoshanke! Back then, he loved refining weapons and had extraordinary talent in this area. In the earliest stages of the universe's birth, life was still scarce, and the Lord of Craftsman God was already a 'Universe Venerable.' While he was refining an artifact, Zuoshanke happened to observe him, which enraged him. How could the techniques for refining supreme treasures be seen and learned by other powerhouses? He was furious, but alas, Zuoshanke was already a Universe Supreme Master at that time. His mere control over the surrounding universe rendered the Lord of Craftsman God immobile. Subsequently—Zuoshanke evaluated the Lord of Craftsman God's strengths in artifact refining, pointed out his weaknesses, and even suggested ways to improve and refine his techniques. This instantly astonished the Lord of Craftsman God... And so, during that period, the solitary Zuoshanke resided on the Lord of Craftsman God's planet. At that time, the Craftsman God Star had no reputation and had not yet been transformed into a flying palace-type supreme treasure. Zuoshanke would occasionally offer guidance... This caused the Lord of Craftsman God's skills to advance by leaps and bounds! His comprehension of laws also improved significantly, finally achieving a breakthrough and entering the Universe Master level! His weapon refining reached an extremely high degree of mastery. “Your skills are already extremely high. My guidance is no longer useful. From now on, you must rely on your own comprehension.” One day, Zuoshanke simply left. From beginning to end, Zuoshanke never said he would take him as a disciple. He didn't impart any cultivation secret techniques, nor did he give him any supreme treasures. Zuoshanke's help... was merely residing on this planet for an extended period and guiding him in artifact refining techniques. Yet, the Lord of Craftsman God always referred to him as 'Teacher Zuoshanke,' having long regarded Zuoshanke as his master in his heart! He even tried to formally acknowledge him as his master several times... but Zuoshanke never agreed. This time, for the task Zuoshanke entrusted him with, the Lord of Craftsman God naturally executed it perfectly, without the slightest delay. “Poor fellow, but you're also a lucky little one.” The Lord of Craftsman God sighed, “Teacher Zuoshanke setting up this trial for you probably means he considers you a disciple too.” “However, Teacher Zuoshanke's vision is incredibly high. If you can't get out on your own, you'll be trapped in the Absolute Land forever.” The Lord of Craftsman God sighed inwardly. Whoosh! Immediately, that colossal figure vanished into the void, returning to the Craftsman God Star. Just a moment later—“Teacher is back.” “Teacher is back.” “Hurry and prepare! Soon, Teacher will test you. Those who pass the final examination will be able to become Teacher's disciples.” At the foot of Craftsman God Mountain, the more than five hundred Universe Venerables and Immortals, who had been kneeling, possessing talent in weapon refining techniques, looked on with pleasant surprise as the three disciples of the Lord of Craftsman God, flying down from high in the sky, shouted. Meanwhile, Universe Venerables from various races within the architectural complex also quickly emerged. “Hurry, the Lord of Craftsman God is about to appear.” “Quick!” “The chance to ask the Lord of Craftsman God to refine a supreme treasure is coming!” Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, thousands of Universe Venerables appeared. “Youluo, the Lord of Craftsman God is about to appear, Youluo, Youluo.” Venerable Yonghe searched Luo Feng's residence but couldn't find him, sighing inwardly with confusion. ...In the Yinfa Secret Realm, inside the cosmic spaceship floating in the void, Luo Feng's Earthling true body sat there. Beside him, a Youhai Clone also appeared (previously, when the Golden Horned Beast resisted the Lord of Craftsman God's grasp, the Youhai Clone had exhausted its divine power and dissipated to replenish the Golden Horned Beast's divine body, so it naturally reformed). “Where exactly is it?” “Where is my Golden Horned Beast clone? I can connect with its consciousness, but I can't sense its location at all.” Luo Feng was shocked; this had never happened before. Even on the Original Star, his two clones could sense each other's positions. “Where did the Golden Horned Beast clone go?” “The Absolute Land, where in the universe is it?” Luo Feng grew increasingly puzzled. Even having reached his current level, Luo Feng still felt that the universe was incredibly difficult to fully comprehend, with mysterious places constantly appearing. ...The starry sky shifted. Passing through the massive spatial vortex, the Golden Horned Beast appeared in a new starry region, looking around in bewilderment. “This, where is this?” The Golden Horned Beast gazed into the distance. A brilliant starry sky stretched out, with distant stars, planets, and even a red giant star visible... With the Golden Horned Beast's vision, it saw a vast, endless sea of stars. It appeared to be a very ordinary, common starry region. Yet, the Golden Horned Beast clone understood—this place was anything but ordinary! It couldn't sense spatial fluctuations! It couldn't sense its God Kingdom! It couldn't sense the Virtual Universe! “How is this possible?” “Where are the spatial fluctuations?” The Golden Horned Beast roared, hovering in the starry sky, looking around. “There's no spatial lockdown, so how could the spatial fluctuations disappear?” This endless starry sky seemed to naturally lack any spatial fluctuations, as if completely isolated from the original universe. “I can't sense the Virtual Universe!” “I can't sense my God Kingdom.” “I couldn't connect to the Virtual Universe when I was on the Original Star, and this is the second place in the universe where I can't connect to it.” The Golden Horned Beast looked around. It knew the capabilities of the Virtual Universe, and a place that could sever its connection was definitely not ordinary. Previously, the only place it knew of was the Original Star! “Where's the spatial vortex?” The Golden Horned Beast looked around. It had come to this starry region directly through a spatial vortex, but now that vortex had vanished. “How could it disappear?” “Could it be—” “That the massive spatial vortex near Craftsman God Star can randomly teleport one to various points?” Luo Feng was utterly perplexed. Back in the Ancestral God Secret Realm, Luo Feng had encountered some randomly appearing spatial vortices that would teleport him to a certain core area, where his Demon Killer Clan Clone eventually evolved. ...Luo Feng's Demon Killer Clan Clone appeared in mid-air, while the Golden Horned Beast clone was concealed within the World Ring. “What secrets does this Absolute Land hold? I haven't found any dangers yet?” Luo Feng observed carefully, but because he couldn't sense his God Kingdom, he naturally couldn't use God Kingdom teleportation, and thus, his injuries couldn't be healed. “Teacher Zuoshanke, what kind of scheme has he set up for me?” Luo Feng mused. Luo Feng wasn't foolish! When he tried to steal the fourth metal plate, he hadn't assumed a connection between the Lord of Craftsman God and Zuoshanke. But when his Golden Horned Beast clone obtained it and was about to escape... the Lord of Craftsman God appeared, which was normal. What wasn't normal was that he merely gave him a minor punishment, didn't reclaim the black metal plate, didn't even take any supreme treasures from him, and simply threw him into the spatial vortex leading to the Absolute Land! “A weak alien.” “Daring to steal.” “And this alien could even emerge alive from the black gourd, surely possessing powerful supreme treasure armor. Knowing this... the Lord of Craftsman God didn't even take a single treasure from me. Was he truly that benevolent? If he were benevolent, he could have just killed me directly. If he wanted to punish me, there were countless ways, so why throw me into this Absolute Land?” “As a super powerhouse, he would fight fiercely for top-tier supreme treasures on the Original Star, yet he didn't even glance at the precious supreme treasures right under his nose.” “If there's no trickery, then he must think I'm a fool.” Luo Feng pondered silently. “It must be Teacher Zuoshanke's arrangement.” Luo Feng felt gratitude towards Zuoshanke, but he also constantly pondered Zuoshanke's intentions and purpose. Zuoshanke usually paid him no mind, yet he had him acquire three black metal plates at the 'Sector Lord,' 'Immortal,' and 'Venerable' levels respectively, clearly three trials. “That time I went to Venerable Qingdoukou and Venerable Zidoukou... and was eventually imprisoned in the Ice Prison. If not for the Lord of Sirius's intervention, I would probably have had to endure there for a long time, killing many powerhouses in the Ice Prison, and then emerge.” Luo Feng mused. “Was that Teacher Zuoshanke's previous objective?” Luo Feng was only guessing, as Zuoshanke's arrangements were quite casual. Even if Luo Feng had escaped midway due to the 'Lord of Sirius' and 'Chaos City Lord,' Zuoshanke wouldn't have interfered. “What about this time?” “What is the objective this time? Last time, if not for the Lord of Sirius and the Chaos City Lord, I would have been trapped there for an extremely long time.” Luo Feng looked at the endless starry sky. “In this mysterious Absolute Land, I can't sense my God Kingdom, I can't sense the Virtual Universe, and I can't even determine my cosmic coordinates! I can't call for help! My divine body's consumption also can't be replenished by the endless Youhai...” “If I fail, my Tribulation Armor, Nine Xia River, and Wu Killing Wings will be gone.” Luo Feng mused. “I can't worry about all that.” “Whatever scheme Zuoshanke has set up, he's cultivating me, and I'm relying on him to quickly improve my strength. No matter what—strength is fundamental!” Luo Feng stopped overthinking. Whoosh! He immediately transformed into a streak of light and flew rapidly, his speed continuously soaring, quickly reaching the speed of light. “Hmm?” Luo Feng's eyes widened. “Speed of light!” “I've already reached the speed of light! No, I've started to exceed the speed of light! Why haven't I entered the dark universe yet?” Luo Feng, now a streak of light, was utterly bewildered. “What kind of place is this? Is it even the original universe, or is it another universe similar to the primordial universe?”
