The human camp was shaken. The Galaxy Lord's will impact, indiscriminately spreading to friend and foe alike, caused 37 of the 39 Universe Masters guarding the Endless Abyssal Sea to instantly fall unconscious. Only Void Gold Master and Buhuan Master remained conscious, as their wills had reached the 'Universe Supreme Master' level.

The entire Hong Alliance was stunned!

And this was just a diffused spread.

How terrifying would it be if concentrated on an enemy?

“Doesn't that mean the Galaxy Lord's will impact alone can sweep aside almost all Universe Masters?”

“Even Universe Supreme Masters, if their will is weak, would likely suffer.”

The high-ranking members of the Hong Alliance were deeply shocked.

Chaos City Lord issued a strict order: “My Hong Alliance forbids the dissemination of any information. The detailed situation is known only to the Universe Masters of my Hong Alliance. If leaked… it will be considered treason!”

The Galaxy Holy Land and Primal Secret Region immediately became heavily guarded.

All news was concealed. Although many Sector Lords, Undying, and others had fallen unconscious, they did not truly know how terrifying Luo Feng's will impact was.

“Luo Feng… no matter what, you must return alive.” Chaos City Lord stood far from the Endless Abyssal Sea, gazing into the distance, murmuring in his heart.

Chaos understood.

Such a heaven-defying method could not be easily obtained. Just by observing Luo Feng's complete lack of contact with the outside world, it was clear… Luo Feng might be in extreme danger.

...

Jinzhi World, Wuqi Tower's eighth floor.

Luo Feng's divine body was covered in specks of purple light, with a massive purple pattern integrated into every ounce of divine power.

Boom!

Waves of will impact spread outwards.

“Third stage!”

“He has entered the third stage! Before him, only one other in my Jinzhi World reached this eighth floor of Wuqi Tower, and they failed almost immediately after trying… I never imagined that my Jinzhi World could truly produce a miracle, with a Law Master capable of entering the third stage. Just one more step… and success will be achieved.”

“Once successful, haha…”

“My long years of waiting have been for this very moment.”

The black-robed figure could barely conceal its excitement.

Yet, it was also nervous.

“Failure is not an option.”

“This is the final stage, absolutely do not fail. If it fails… a miracle was born once, but will it be born a second time?”

It had long understood that the probability of success for any life form within Jinzhi World was practically zero! The so-called title mission… was merely a pipe dream, hoping only for a miracle to appear, and now, a miracle truly had.

Countless geniuses from the various great powers of the ancient civilization had never succeeded.

It even sighed, calling it a miracle!

...

Within the Scroll World.

The Purple Horned Beast watched Luo Feng nervously. It could see what a terrifying nightmare this Law Master was enduring.

“This is the baseline.”

“My master created this ultimate technique, and the demands on your soul are so high, this is the baseline. If you cannot meet this baseline, there is only death! Little one…” The Purple Horned Beast was anxious and worried, “You must persevere, you must hold on, and pull through. As long as you endure… you will enter a brand new world.”

Time flowed by.

During the cultivation of the 'Na Yin Secret Art,' especially upon entering the third stage, Luo Feng immediately felt his soul on the verge of shattering and annihilating. Yet, just as he seemed unable to bear it, his soul would undergo a transformation. In the third stage… each time he reached the limit, his soul would rapidly adapt.

“Am I naturally suited for this secret art?” Luo Feng couldn't help but ponder this thought even at his limits.

Like recognizing the Star Tower as his master, or resisting the God-Eye Will Impact before, he had relied on his will to fight.

However, cultivating this 'Na Yin Secret Art' actually had little to do with will. After all, among the super geniuses of the ancient civilization's great powers, there were heaven-defying monsters at the Law Master stage whose will had reached the 'Eternal True God' level, yet they still failed. This was because the Na Yin Secret Art only had partial requirements for will; it was primarily about the soul itself!

Luo Feng's soul, pushed to its limits, was rapidly adapting under the 'Na Yin Secret Art,' transforming the initial agonizing sensation of his soul shattering into a feeling of comfort and ease.

“Comfortable.” Luo Feng actually began to enjoy the sensation of cultivating the third stage of the Na Yin Secret Art.

...

After nearly 90 years of Luo Feng cultivating the third stage, everything finally came to fruition.

“Hoo.” Luo Feng opened his eyes, a smile on his face, feeling incredibly relaxed.

Right before him, the Purple Horned Beast was sprawled, its large face directly in front of Luo Feng, startling him when he opened his eyes.

“Spirit of the Secret Art, what are you doing…” Luo Feng couldn't help but take two steps back, creating some distance.

The Purple Horned Beast, however, stared intently at Luo Feng, muttering, “I'm watching, trying to figure out where a Law Master like you came from, to actually succeed.”

“Nevertheless, congratulations, you are qualified to cultivate this ultimate technique created by my master,” the Purple Horned Beast said proudly.

“Who is your master?” Luo Feng couldn't help but press.

Is it the Jinzhi God King? It doesn't feel like it.

“Hmph, listen carefully. Although my master doesn't know you,” the Purple Horned Beast said, “he has, at the very least, bestowed upon you this ultimate technique, so you must firmly remember his name! My master… is named ‘Yuan,’ a truly free and unfettered super-being, unbound by any power.”

“Yuan?” Luo Feng silently noted the name.

“Alright, you have mastered the Na Yin Secret Art and met the requirements, so you are naturally qualified to receive this great secret art created by my master,” the Purple Horned Beast sighed. “After living for so long, I can finally return to the secret art itself.”

Whoosh~~~

Immediately, the entire Purple Horned Beast disintegrated, transforming into specks of starlight that surged directly into Luo Feng's consciousness. A massive influx of information poured in at once.

...

That expanse of void on Wuqi Tower's eighth floor.

The black-robed figure had watched with nervous anticipation for nearly 90 years. It was only when the light on Luo Feng's body dissipated, and especially when the countless starry characters that had originally surrounded the void surged madly towards Luo Feng, integrating directly into his body, that it truly let out a sigh of relief, revealing a joyful and satisfied smile.

“My existence now has meaning,” the black-robed figure said with a smile, then immediately dissipated.

In this expanse of void, only Luo Feng remained on the floating land.

Luo Feng stood there, motionless.

After a long while… he slowly opened his eyes.

“The eighth-floor world.” Luo Feng looked around. The void around him was now devoid of those characters. After learning the detailed information of the secret art, Luo Feng understood that those characters must have integrated into his body.

“Yuan?”

Recalling the information about the secret art he had just received, Luo Feng couldn't help but feel immense admiration for this being.

This powerful secret art, named 'Lie Yuan Art,' seemed ordinary, but it was actually a true super ultimate technique of the ancient civilization. Moreover, this 'Lie Yuan Art' was also a will secret art, though vastly different from the 'God-Eye Secret Art.'

The 'God-Eye Secret Art' could be cultivated as long as one's will reached the Void True God level. For example, Luo Feng could cultivate it now.

The 'Lie Yuan Art,' however, required one's will to become sacred before cultivation could even begin.

To be precise.

The God-Eye Secret Art was considered lower-tier, but it was extremely useful for True Gods, Void True Gods, and Eternal True Gods.

The Lie Yuan Art, however, was enough to drive God Kings and other super-beings into a frenzy. This was a heaven-defying ultimate technique. If the Jinzhi God King were to successfully cultivate the 'Lie Yuan Art,' his strength would likely skyrocket, allowing him to suppress many other powers. This was an ultimate technique that could completely reshape the power dynamics of various factions.

Yet, it was created by 'Yuan,' a free and unfettered being with no desire for conquest. This ultimate technique had long ignited countless wars and massacres in the ancient civilization.

Although the Jinzhi God King had obtained it, he himself could not cultivate it. He had tried to have his subordinate geniuses attempt it, but they had all failed… until Luo Feng appeared.

...

“Boom!”

A pillar of light descended from the void, enveloping Luo Feng and causing him to vanish from the eighth floor of Wuqi Tower.

...

Reaching the ninth floor meant success, granting access to Wuqishen and a special conferment.

“Hmm?”

Luo Feng stood within a tranquil, square courtyard. The courtyard walls bore ancient carvings, showcasing the unique civilization style of Jinzhi World.

“This is the ninth floor of Wuqi Tower?” Luo Feng's eyes gleamed. Besides his anticipation for the title and Wuqishen, Luo Feng also wanted to know…

…all the secrets hidden within this final stage.

“Come in.”

A voice came from the tranquil dwelling ahead.
