Lord of Sirius

Inside the Ice Prison, within Sirius’s palace.

Sirius watched his maidservant anxiously, worriedly, and expectantly. She was currently connecting to the Virtual Universe to ‘verify’ something.

“I’ve been trapped here for countless eons; whether I can leave depends on this moment!” A fierce glint involuntarily flashed in Sirius’s emerald-green eyes—this was its true nature. “It must connect, it must!” Time ticked by, minute by minute, but to Sirius, each second felt like a year.

The maidservant opened her eyes.

“Is it done?” Sirius growled.

“Master, there has been a response,” the maidservant said respectfully.

“A response?” Sirius’s massive divine body trembled slightly, his blood instantly boiled. He had never been so excited in all his long years.

“Hahahaha, good, good, good,” Sirius involuntarily threw back his head and let out a wolf howl.

The howl echoed directly from the palace.

Luo Feng, however, was watching from the side.

“Sirius,” Luo Feng said.

“Haha, Human, you truly keep your word.” Sirius looked down at Luo Feng. The ‘response’ naturally meant the message had been confirmed and would be sent to his teacher. Knowing he was about to leave, how could Sirius not be excited? The previous Sirius was as steady as an iceberg, but the current Sirius was full of fighting spirit, like a volcano about to erupt.

“Then I’ll be taking my leave,” Luo Feng smiled faintly.

“Haha…” Sirius laughed. “Then I won’t see you out.” With a rumbling sound, the main gate of the palace opened.

Luo Feng glanced at it, then flapped his wings, transforming into a streak of light and vanishing.

“Congratulations, Master!”

“Congratulations, Master.”

The maidservants in the hall immediately offered their congratulations.

Sirius, however, transmitted his voice, barking, “No need for details. Although that Qingdaokou Venerable couldn’t possibly monitor everything inside the ‘Ice Prison’ at all times, if he discovers us, it would still be troublesome. Before we leave… don’t cause any trouble. We’ll wait quietly. I believe we’ll be able to leave in just a day or two.”

Sirius raised his head, gazing through the palace’s main gate at the endless icy world outside, muttering silently to himself, “Human, I don’t want to cause any more trouble. This Beast God Inheritance Token will temporarily remain with you for a moment. Once a super-being from my Beast Race descends… hmph, hmph, the Beast God Inheritance Token will still be my offering to the Beast Race.”

“Hahahaha…” Sirius involuntarily let out bursts of laughter, but this time, he deliberately controlled it, and the sound only echoed within the great hall.

...

Shortly after Luo Feng flew out of the great hall, Extreme Rainbow King appeared beside him, then teleported… far away.

Deep within the snowy plains of the Eastern Ice Prison.

Inside Luo Feng’s lair.

“The Beast God Inheritance Token is already in hand.” Luo Feng’s heart was filled with boundless joy. “I never imagined the Ancestral God Sect was so powerful, with its eight Beast God positions… Right, that golden pool Seven Swords King brought out back then had sculptures of Beast Gods on it.”

A scene suddenly flashed in Luo Feng’s mind: when the Sealing Star was born, the Machine Race’s Lifefall King led his powerful subordinates to ambush Seven Swords King, who then brought out a special golden pool.

“That must be related to the Ancestral God Sect.”

“It seems Seven Swords King also received a special inheritance.” Luo Feng grew even more expectant. “I should go see what the Ancestral God Sect’s highest-grade Beast God inheritance ground is truly like.”

“Sirius.”

“I have to thank you this time.” Luo Feng looked up, a faint smile appearing on his face. “I wonder which being from your Beast Race you, Sirius, will be able to summon, and if they can compare to my teacher, Chaos City Lord.”

...

The Beast Race had indeed set up many intelligence networks within the Human Virtual Universe. However, ordinary Beast Race Immortals were not qualified to use these networks. Even elite members of the race, such as Beast Race Feudal King Immortals, were normally forbidden from using them, only occasionally permitted in special circumstances or important moments.

Because each use of the intelligence network was extremely dangerous.

Even with extreme caution and numerous methods, the Virtual Universe system’s surveillance was omnipresent; any slight trace would be noticed. Thus, each use of the Virtual Universe… carried the risk of exposing an intelligence network, and the cost was extremely high!

“Sibuwa is actually still alive!”

Within the Beast Race territory, on an incredibly prosperous planet where countless young Beast Race members lived, a powerful Universe Venerable from the Beast Race royal family, the ‘Sirius Race’, secretly resided.

“Sibuwa is my third disciple, a disciple I took in right after becoming a Universe Venerable. He had been missing for an unknown amount of time, and now, he’s actually still alive!” A Sirius, just over two meters long, with feathers shimmering green all over, seemed somewhat pleased in the quiet palace, letting out low growls. “And he even cultivated to the Feudal King Undefeatable level, hahahaha! Trapped in a place like the Ice Prison, without any resources or guidance from a teacher, he could still cultivate to the Feudal King Undefeatable level. Haha, I always believed Sibuwa had great potential to become a Universe Venerable within my Sirius Race. It seems my guess was indeed correct.”

“If he could have been within the race, receiving resource supplies and guidance, he would probably have become a Universe Venerable long ago.”

“Hmm.”

This seemingly ordinary Sirius paced back and forth on all fours.

Suddenly, a voice came: “Teacher, have you emerged from seclusion?” In the main hall of the majestic palace, a Sirius, over ten kilometers long, slowly appeared, then rapidly shrank, also becoming just over two meters long. This Feudal King Immortal Sirius… was another disciple of this Universe Venerable, and also the master of the entire planet.

“I have something to attend to,” the green Sirius let out a low growl, then vanished into thin air. “I’ll be back in a few days.”

“Yes, Teacher.”

...

Deep within the Beast Race territory, a palace floated in the endless starry sky, surrounded by flames. Clusters of black, white, purple, red, green, blue… various colored flames, each the size of a star, circled the palace.

If one were further away, none of this would be visible.

Clearly, the space-time around the palace was distorted, forming its own pocket of space-time.

The floating palace itself resembled solidified flames. The palace was silent, utterly still. On the massive plaza in front of the palace, a hazy light and shadow appeared out of thin air, then condensed into a green Sirius, about ten kilometers long.

“Leader,” the green Sirius prostrated respectfully.

On this solidified flame palace, an eye-like carving suddenly blinked, and the entire palace let out a rumbling sound: “Speak your business.”

“Leader, I just received news from my disciple. This disciple of mine was one I took in right after becoming a Universe Venerable, and I had the highest hopes for him, but… not long after becoming my disciple, he disappeared,” the green Sirius said respectfully. “His name is Sibuwa.”

“I…” the rumbling voice said, “know of him. A long, long time ago, he was on the list for reversing space-time to revive. I tried to reverse space-time to revive him, but… it failed, he couldn’t be revived. I thought he was controlled by another powerful being’s soul, but it turns out he’s still alive.”

When Sibuwa disappeared, his strength back then wasn’t as heaven-defying as it is now. But as a rising genius within the Sirius Race at the time, his strength was sufficient to qualify for the race to attempt reversing space-time to revive him. Unfortunately, the revival failed, and he was naturally forgotten in a corner.

“I have news of him,” the green Sirius prostrated respectfully. “He is currently in the Ice Prison of the Wuhua Secret Realm. For countless years, he has been trapped in the Ice Prison.”

“The Ice Prison of Zidaokou and Qingdaokou?” the rumbling voice asked.

“Yes, Leader.”

The green Sirius prostrated respectfully, “He was imprisoned in the Ice Prison, without resources or guidance from powerful beings, and has now cultivated to the Feudal King Undefeatable level.”

“Feudal King Undefeatable?” the rumbling voice asked, with a hint of surprise.

“He wouldn’t dare lie,” the green Sirius said. “Leader, I want to rescue my disciple, but facing that Qingdaokou Venerable and Zidaokou Venerable… especially Zidaokou Venerable, who is one of the 72 Divine Generals of the Ancestral God Sect, I have no confidence whatsoever in bringing my disciple back from there. So I wanted to ask ‘Tianhua Venerable’ for help, but I’m worried Tianhua Venerable won’t give me face, so I ask Leader to speak on my behalf.”

Tianhua Venerable is the second-ranked being within the Beast Race’s Sirius Race. His strength is extremely formidable; although at the peak of Universe Venerable, he possesses combat power comparable to an ordinary Universe Master. He is definitely considered a ‘Cosmic Overlord’.

The first-ranked in the Sirius Race is the Lord of Sirius!

And also the master of this palace.

“If Tianhua steps forward, coupled with the deterrence of my Beast Race… then Qingdaokou Venerable and Zidaokou Venerable would certainly not dare to disrespect us,” the green Sirius said.

“Tianhua is currently in a dangerous place, and I cannot contact him. He left the original universe this time, and when he will return is unknown,” the rumbling voice from the palace said. “Since he is a Feudal King Undefeatable of my Sirius Race, then I will go personally.”

“Leader, you, personally going, this…” the green Sirius prostrated in gratitude. “Sibuwa, upon knowing this, will surely be immensely excited, grateful, and honored.”

“It has also been a long time since I last saw Zidaokou.”

Suddenly—

Around the floating palace, those star-sized clusters of flames began to rapidly fly towards the palace. Each cluster of flames rapidly compressed and shrank as it approached the palace, turning into tiny flame-like wisps, and quickly merged into the solidified flame carvings on the palace. Once merged, the entire palace’s aura began to grow even more powerful.

In just a moment, all the countless colored flames around the palace vanished, while the solidified flame carvings on the palace itself now faintly swirled with flames.

“This is a supreme treasure,” the green Sirius thought, secretly envying it.

This palace…

was the greatest supreme treasure of the entire Sirius Race, the ‘Sirius Hall’, a supreme treasure that the Lord of Sirius obtained not long after the universe was born.

“I’m going.”

The entire palace vanished into thin air.

In this part of the starry sky, only the green Sirius remained, suspended in space. His emerald-green eyes were filled with joy: “With the Leader going, Sibuwa will surely be brought back.”
