The Grand Scheme Unfolds

Standing above the volcano, Luo Feng suddenly vanished into thin air, then reappeared consecutively in various regions across the entire Jue An Continent. Wherever an Undying God was present, Luo Feng would appear within a million kilometers. “Not red.” “Not red.” “Red!” “Not red.”... After hundreds of instantaneous movements, he surveyed these hundreds of Undying Gods in an extremely short time. Among them, 12 caused the Golden Toad’s eyes to turn red. Luo Feng, cautious, immediately heavily bound and space-sealed these 12 Undying Gods, rendering them immobile. “Now, to meet this Jue Lian Master God again.” Luo Feng walked in mid-air, and with a single step, he arrived directly above the majestic divine temple encircled by volcanoes. “Hmm?” Luo Feng frowned. “There are two targets within this divine temple?” He could sense the two targets below perfectly through the Golden Toad. ... Inside the divine temple, in a quiet hall, Jue Lian Master God stood holding his scepter, bound by invisible golden light, unable to struggle free. Suddenly, there was silence. A man with dark green wings slowly descended from high above, landing in the hall at the highest point of the divine temple. The guards of the entire divine temple seemed completely oblivious to everything. Jue Lian Master God looked at the man before him with some trepidation, quickly saying, “May I ask, esteemed one, why you have come to my Yuan Ao Secret Realm? I can inform the Yuan Ao Master on your behalf.” “Why not address him as Yuan Ao Supreme God?” Luo Feng chuckled softly, simultaneously and swiftly determining that it was Jue Lian Master God himself, not some exotic treasure, who caused the Golden Toad’s eyes to turn red. “With such power, esteemed one, you must be a Universe Master from another cosmic force,” Jue Lian Master God said respectfully. Luo Feng did not deny it. “Esteemed one, please command me, Jue Lian will do his utmost,” Jue Lian Master God said with utmost reverence. “I ask you,” Luo Feng said. “Please speak, esteemed one.” As Jue Lian Master God’s words left his mouth, his eyes dimmed, having already fallen into an illusion. Luo Feng frowned, looking at Jue Lian Master God. “He’s probably just an elementary Universe Venerable, yet I can only make him fall into an illusion, not search his memories.” Searching memories requires both skill and a significant power disparity. This Jue Lian Master God was also a Universe Venerable, albeit a very weak one, and skilled in soul techniques. Although Luo Feng could make him fall into an illusion, he couldn’t search his memories. Luo Feng stood there, silently waiting for a moment. “He finally couldn’t resist.” Luo Feng nodded slightly. This Jue Lian Venerable had finally succumbed completely within the illusion. Of course, this only meant Luo Feng could question him; he still couldn’t search his memories. “I ask you, what special secrets do you possess?” Luo Feng asked. “I once ambushed and killed ‘Sido God’...” Jue Lian Venerable, holding his scepter, began to speak mechanically. Luo Feng listened with a frown. Incorrect. It didn’t sound like anything that could harm the Primal Universe... The Primal Universe nurtured billions of races... Even the invincible human ‘Original Ancestor’ was directly suppressed by the cosmic origin. To be deemed harmful to the Primal Universe, and for the Ancestral God to send him, it definitely wouldn’t be these trivial matters. “Have you ever left the Yuan Ao Secret Realm?” “Has the Yuan Ao Master ever instructed you to do anything important?” “Have you ever obtained any exotic treasures, or had any special encounters?” “Compared to other Venerables, what do you think makes you special?” Luo Feng continuously questioned Jue Lian Master God, who, completely lost in the illusion, answered everything. But the more Luo Feng listened, the more confused he became. A thought struck him... Swish! A figure enveloped in golden light flew directly over. This was the other target in the entire divine temple that caused the Golden Toad’s eyes to turn red—an Undying God. This tall, burly, entirely dark-skinned being stood there, his eyes also vacant, having been silently controlled by Luo Feng. “Search his memories.” Luo Feng couldn’t search Jue Lian Master God’s memories, but he could search this Undying God’s. A moment later— “Hmm?” Luo Feng looked at the dark, burly Undying being and Jue Lian Master God before him. “What a coincidence? This Undying God and Bo Wa God, whom I killed earlier, are both soul servants of this Jue Lian Master God?” Combining their memories, Luo Feng discovered this commonality. With a thought! The 12 ‘Undying Gods’ in distant parts of the Jue An Continent, who also caused the Golden Toad’s eyes to turn red, were, with a single thought from Luo Feng, first released from their spatial seals, and then spatially shifted directly into this majestic divine temple. The hall instantly gathered a total of 15 figures: Luo Feng, Jue Lian Master God, and 13 Undying Gods. “They are all targets.” “Search!” Luo Feng immediately began diligently searching the memories of each one, except for Jue Lian Master God. He searched the memories of the 13 Undying Gods... and carefully cross-referenced them. “There’s nothing amiss. They are all very normal Undying Gods! And they all climbed up step by step from the Jue An Continent,” Luo Feng thought to himself. “The only commonality... is that all 13 of them are soul servants of Jue Lian Master God.” “Jue Lian,” Luo Feng looked at Jue Lian, “How many soul servants do you have?” “A total of 20, 4 have fallen. 16 remain,” Jue Lian Master God replied directly. Luo Feng glanced at the 13 numb Undying Gods standing there. “Are they all Undying Gods?” “Three more are Demigods,” Jue Lian Master God said. “Under which Undying God’s command, in which empire?” Luo Feng asked. ... Since he had searched the memories of the 13 Undying Gods, he was naturally very familiar with the geography of the entire Jue An Continent. According to Jue Lian Master God’s words... Luo Feng quickly found Jue Lian Master God’s three Sector Lord soul servants! Upon investigation... Luo Feng was quite surprised, because these three Sector Lord servants did not cause the Golden Toad’s eyes to turn red, clearly not being targets. “Although these three Sector Lords are not targets.” “However—among Jue Lian Master God’s soul servants, the Undying servants are all targets, and he himself is also a target.” Luo Feng pondered, “And Jue Lian Master God himself seems fine. Could it be...” “Jue Lian, is the Yuan Ao Master your master?” Luo Feng pressed. “Yes,” Jue Lian Master God replied mechanically. Luo Feng immediately smiled. “It truly is him...” Then Luo Feng pressed further, “Do you know if the Yuan Ao Master has other soul servants?” “Yes, I know of two more,” Jue Lian Master God replied mechanically. “Tell me their names, and where they are?” Luo Feng said. ... A moment later. The 14 targets, including Jue Lian Master God, were directly annihilated and dissipated. Luo Feng then withdrew the golden domain and instantly teleported away from the Jue An Continent... heading to another, even vaster continent among the 12 great landmasses—the Mogo Continent. ... In the spatial interlayer corresponding to the cosmic space of the Yuan Ao Secret Realm, deep within endless spatial fragments... there was a majestic divine kingdom, seemingly boundless. The divine kingdom was vast and limitless. A gigantic continent floated in the mid-air of the entire divine kingdom, connected by countless black chains, hundreds of millions of kilometers long, directly reaching the bottom of the endless ocean below. The entire floating continent... seemed to be held in place by these hundreds of massive black chains, preventing it from drifting away. In the center of the floating continent, there was a vast lake, filled with scorching black liquid. Even a Universe Venerable would be instantly incinerated and annihilated upon entering it. And an incredibly majestic figure lay there. This majestic figure was like a giant carved from a massive mountain, lying in the endless lake of scorching black liquid. “Whoosh!” The giant suddenly sat up. His head was somewhat square, with only one massive eye and a mouth. His divine body was covered in a constantly flowing, mercury-like gray armor. When he sat up... it was as if a majestic mountain emerged from the black liquid lake, with the black liquid continuously flowing off him and back into the lake. He was the Yuan Ao Master, renowned throughout the cosmos! “A hazy golden domain, capable of making even Jue Lian unable to resist?” “Appearance similar to the Ka Jiu Clan? Possessing unparalleled combat power? Oh, he’s fallen into an illusion?” Yuan Ao Master muttered in a low voice. Jue Lian Master God was his soul servant, so he could naturally communicate telepathically over long distances. The moment he fell into the illusion, he immediately notified Yuan Ao Master. Unfortunately, he quickly succumbed completely, unable to transmit any further messages. “Such powerful strength, a top-tier Universe Overlord? No, he should be a Universe Master.” Yuan Ao Master waited silently. Just a moment later— Yuan Ao Master felt that his servant, Jue Lian Master God, had already perished. “He died, indeed.” Yuan Ao Master’s voice was low, but his eyes burned with a strange glint. “Everything is as expected. Once the plan is activated... the Ancestral God Sect, who claim to be guardians of the Primal Universe’s origin, will certainly make a move. And this move came quite quickly. The Ancestral God Sect must have sent a Universe Master.” “Come on.” “Such a great sacrifice, what’s the point if only the Ancestral God Sect comes? Since the Ancestral God Sect’s powerhouse has arrived... the next step should begin. The Demon Race... the Starry Sky Behemoth Alliance... the Northern Territory Alliance... they should all come one by one.” ... Luo Feng was completely unaware of everything. “Strange, when I killed Bo Wa God, it was understandable that Yuan Ao Master didn’t know. But I’ve killed his soul servant, Jue Lian Master God. Yuan Ao Master must have known immediately.” Luo Feng stood above the endless Mogo Continent, his brows slightly furrowed. “Yet, Yuan Ao Master shows no reaction at all.” Although Yuan Ao Master was powerful, Luo Feng was not afraid. But Yuan Ao Master’s failure to appear... made Luo Feng feel that something was amiss. If someone were wantonly killing powerhouses in human territory, the human Universe Masters would have appeared long ago. Moreover, according to the information gathered from previous investigations, Jue Lian Master God himself and his Undying soul servants were identified as targets. Therefore... since Yuan Ao Master was Jue Lian Master God’s master, the source might very well be with Yuan Ao Master! “Let’s see, I want to see what exactly it is that can harm the Primal Universe.” Luo Feng then had a thought. “Boom~~~” Endless hazy golden light, carrying the power of the Galaxy Lord, descended upon the Mogo Continent, which had a maximum diameter of 5.1 light-years. At this moment... no powerhouse on the Mogo Continent could escape Luo Feng’s control.
