Ancestral God's Message

Luo Feng memorized all the 'basic inheritance' of the Python River Army. He was also quite surprised; while this basic inheritance naturally paled in comparison to the 'Duan Dong River lineage inheritance,' it was definitely top-tier when compared to the vast amount of memory stones he had acquired. This was based on his understanding of ancient civilization. Powerful inheritances were not easily taught in the ancient civilization world. Military inheritances! Especially the 'Python River Army' inheritance... it could already be considered a 'high-grade inheritance.' Of course, this was merely a small, foundational part of a 'high-grade inheritance.' Beyond this... it required military merits to acquire! The Duan Dong River lineage inheritance was considered a super inheritance, and Luo Feng possessed a complete set. "With this divine power burning secret technique, I can at least perform the first stage of 'Extinction'," Luo Feng mused. "The Jinzhi World has extremely strict management over inheritances. If I were to directly use the 'Extinction' divine power burning technique and couldn't explain where I learned the 'divine power burning secret technique'... I'd be sentenced to death." While Luo Feng was feigning learning the basic inheritance, in the Original Universe, within human territory, at Yinhe Holy Land, Luo Feng's new Youhai clone sat cross-legged on the ninth floor of a majestic hall. The surroundings were empty, offering a view of endless space and time. "Hmm?" Luo Feng opened his eyes, then stood up and turned to look into the distance. *Whoosh!* A streak of light flew over, revealing the Two-faced Ancestral God of the Ancestral God Sect. "Yinhe Lord," the Two-faced Ancestral God said, stepping onto the black jade-like floor of the ninth-floor hall, smiling at Luo Feng. "Why would an Ancestral God visit me?" Luo Feng asked with a surprised smile. "You and I are old friends. Even if there's nothing urgent, can't I still visit?" the Two-faced Ancestral God teased. Luo Feng chuckled, "Of course, you can stay as long as you wish, Two-faced Ancestral God." The Two-faced Ancestral God had saved him once before, and among the three Ancestral Gods... he indeed had the best impression of the Two-faced Ancestral God. The Two-faced Ancestral God immediately said, "Of course, I do have a purpose for coming. Yinhe Lord, your gains in the Jinzhi World have been immense; otherwise, how could you have alarmed the Origin Will of the Original Universe? I am here now, representing the Origin Will of the Original Universe." "Oh?" Luo Feng was startled. Representing the Origin Will? And saying his gains were immense? It seemed the Original Universe's Origin Will knew him very well. That made sense; although he felt unrestricted in the 'Jinzhi World,' he had tried to comprehend the memory stones within the Tomb Mausoleum Boat's inheritance space, only to find... he still couldn't access the more profound content. At that time, Luo Feng realized that the Original Universe's Origin Will could still influence him. The 'Jinzhi World' appeared in the Universe Ocean, guided by the Original Universe's Origin Will... it would be strange if it had no control whatsoever. "My gains are immense?" Luo Feng chuckled. "What do you mean by that?" "Yinhe Lord, you know yourself," the Two-faced Ancestral God said calmly. "Though I am not privy to the details, according to the Original Universe's Origin Will... you are the one among all the powerhouses who entered the Universe Ocean in the first batch to have gained the most." Luo Feng's pupils contracted. Gained the most? He had now joined the Python River Army and obtained a set of Python River Armor. The Python River Armor was a True God-level battle armor, considered an ultimate supreme treasure. However, Luo Feng discovered... the Python River Armor was slightly inferior compared to the battle armor extended from the 'Wu Qi Wings'. The battle armor extended from the Wu Qi Wings rendered all attacks below the eighth tier harmless to the divine body. Yet, the Python River Armor only protected against attacks below the seventh tier, though the weakening effect was the same for both. But the Python River Armor's endurance limit was far inferior to that of the Wu Qi Wings' attached battle armor. Without comparison, one wouldn't know, but after comparing... Luo Feng couldn't help but marvel at the power of the Wu Qi Wings! Aside from the Python River Armor, the most important gain was his identity as a soldier of the 'Python River Army'! Soldiers of special legions, whether through military merits or the inheritances they could exchange for, received higher-grade benefits. Not many powerhouses from the various major forces initially entered the Universe Ocean, numbering over 200. Many perished at the outset, and even if some managed to infiltrate the military, none besides Luo Feng had truly succeeded in joining a special legion like the 'Python River Army'. A myriad of thoughts flashed through Luo Feng's mind in an instant. He then looked at the Two-faced Ancestral God before him and asked, "Ancestral God, what is your true purpose for coming?" "I am here to guide you, as instructed by the Original Universe's Origin Will," the Two-faced Ancestral God said, looking at Luo Feng. His entire body gradually exuded an aura of pressure, not overbearing but distinctly superior, a pressure far surpassing that of a Void True God, even more transcendent. This was clearly bestowed upon him by the Original Universe's Origin. "In a normal reincarnation era, the Fourth Absolute Land would not appear," the Two-faced Ancestral God slowly stated. "But this current era... is clearly not ordinary, which is why the Fourth Absolute Land has emerged." "This is both an opportunity and a great calamity." The words struck Luo Feng's heart like a heavy hammer. A great calamity? Luo Feng frowned slightly. The appearance of those humanoid creatures! And the Original Universe's Origin Will even guided them, telling them how to enter the 'Jinzhi World'... there must be a purpose behind such assistance. After all, with the Origin Will's usual transcendence, it should remain uninvolved. But it clearly had a purpose! It had once suppressed the Original Ancestor! It had once sought to kill Yuan Ao Master and expel strange objects! It wanted to kill Haolei Star Master and two others. Everything indicated that... the Original Universe's Origin Will also had its own stance. "Speak," Luo Feng said, looking at the Two-faced Ancestral God. "What do you want me to do?" "You are destined to be the foremost powerhouse in the entire Universe Ocean," the Two-faced Ancestral God slowly stated. "You need not deny this. Your strength will surpass even the Original Ancestor's! All calamities... will require you to face them, and how to face these calamities depends on the Jinzhi World!" "Remember!" The Two-faced Ancestral God looked at Luo Feng. "Follow the rules within the Jinzhi World, and strive to gain benefits to strengthen yourself... Your strength is the hope of the Original Universe's Origin Will. You are a child of the Original Universe; what is detrimental to the Original Universe... will also be detrimental to you." "Remember, everything is in the Jinzhi World." "Strengthen yourself." *Whoosh!* After speaking, the Two-faced Ancestral God smiled faintly, then transformed into a streak of light and departed. Luo Feng stood there silently, gazing into the distant void in the direction the Two-faced Ancestral God had left. "The Origin Will truly values me," Luo Feng murmured softly. Everything that had happened before also made Luo Feng understand... The Origin Will couldn't act directly; everything required the hands of other powerhouses. Clearly, the Origin Will had set its sights on Luo Feng, believing him to be the true strongest in the future! Thus, it had guided and supported him all along, intending to make Luo Feng its 'Origin Will's' sharp sword, to destroy all enemies. "I am a child of the Original Universe; what is detrimental to it is detrimental to me?" Luo Feng silently repeated in his mind. These words were clearly telling Luo Feng that the Original Universe's Origin Will and he, Luo Feng, were on the same side. "And I'm supposed to believe what you say?" "The appearance of the Jinzhi World... the power completely opposite to divine power that Haolei Star Master displayed before his death... the active guidance of the Original Universe's Origin Will..." Luo Feng secretly thought. "Everything has a purpose. And the Origin Will is merely a will; it cannot attack directly. As long as my strength is sufficient, becoming the foremost powerhouse in the entire Universe Ocean, then I will have true authority." "We'll see..." "We'll see what ultimately happens. Before that, what I need to do is improve my strength." Luo Feng wasn't resistant. The Original Universe's Origin Will made him feel a sense of crisis, urging him to improve himself more urgently, and he would indeed do so, as strengthening oneself was never wrong. In the Virtual Universe, atop Thunder Island, Luo Feng and Chaos City Lord met. "Teacher, this is the Python River Army's 'divine power burning secret technique'," Luo Feng said, recording the Python River Army's inheritance within the Virtual Universe and sending it to Chaos City Lord via email. "Divine power burning secret technique?" Chaos City Lord examined it carefully. "Yes, even in ancient civilization, the divine power burning secret technique could only be created by extremely powerful beings," Luo Feng stated solemnly. "However, Teacher, remember that once you enter the Jinzhi World, special techniques like the divine power burning secret technique must absolutely not be used. Otherwise, the military will thoroughly investigate... and if you can't explain where you learned it, you will be executed. The Jinzhi World's internal management of inheritances is extremely strict." Chaos City Lord nodded, "Don't worry." "Also, just now, the Origin Will sent me a message through the 'Ancestral God'...," Luo Feng slowly said. "It spoke of a great calamity and told me to try my best to improve my strength within the Jinzhi World." "Hmph." Chaos City Lord snorted coldly. "I've spoken with the Original Ancestor. Don't pay too much attention to this 'great calamity.' It's trying to scare you. Even if it's its great calamity, it might not be ours. Look at the East Emperor Holy Land... it has existed for countless reincarnation eras and is still thriving, isn't it? According to the Original Ancestor, the Original Universe's Origin Will is not invincible, so there's no need to be overly concerned. Of course, improving your strength... that is correct." Luo Feng nodded. Indeed. The Origin Will might want to use him as a blade, but it also depended on whether he was willing. "However, seize this opportunity," Chaos City Lord said solemnly. "According to the information I've received, more and more powerhouses are dying in the Jinzhi World. It's said that some from the God-Eye Clan joined the military, but they were killed inside the barracks shortly after joining... very few survive in the military. Regardless, if the major forces of the Universe Ocean want to enter again, they'll have to wait another epoch. You currently have an advantage, so you must try your best to seize this opportunity." Luo Feng nodded with a smile. Poor God-Eye Clan, killed in the barracks? Ordinary military... was indeed much more lax. While special legions were forbidden from fighting each other in their barracks, ordinary soldiers were far more undisciplined. Only by distinguishing oneself from an ordinary legion and joining a special legion could one receive true specialized training. While the major forces of the Universe Ocean were anxious, Luo Feng remained safe within the Jinzhi World. Jinzhi World, East Army, Python River Army 'Lord of Laws' barracks, Basic Inheritance Island. "Yinhe, we're taking on a military mission tomorrow," Wuhe flew over from a distance. "This is a disaster-level mission. Have you gained anything from cultivating these basic inheritances?" "I've mastered the divine power burning secret technique," Luo Feng said casually. Wuhe's eyes immediately widened, and the wings on his neck stopped flapping. "What, that quickly?" Wuhe was shocked, then foolishly added, "Right, you could defeat me even without the divine power burning secret technique. Especially your blade technique... it's truly terrifying. The blade energy is incredibly condensed, passing through my battle armor without dispersing, causing immense consumption to my divine body. And your close-quarters evasion and changes are too fast; I couldn't block you. You used me as a target, striking so many times that my divine body was depleted by 50%." Luo Feng grinned. They had fought for a full half-hour, with fewer than 1,000 survivors out of 3,000 who went for selection. One could imagine how long the battle raged and how swift his blade was. He had struck Wuhe countless times, yet only managed to deplete 50% of his divine body. "Let's go, get some good rest. We're heading out tomorrow. I hope we can come back alive this time," Wuhe muttered.
