Land of Inheritance

On the very day Luo Feng received the Beast God Inheritance Token, he immediately informed his teacher, Zhenyan King. Zhenyan King promptly departed Chaos City, arriving at the Primal Secret Region that same day. The Primal Secret Region's concentrated teleportation area buzzed with activity. Luo Feng, clad in black combat armor and boots, and Zhenyan King, in golden combat armor, descended side-by-side from the hatch of a spaceship high above, landing directly on the vast void land. This expanse was dotted with numerous teleportation channels, and here, one could perform God Kingdom teleportation without fear of other powerful beings detecting their God Kingdom coordinates. “Teacher, the Land of Inheritance is incredibly far from here,” Luo Feng inquired. “Do you have any token coordinates closer to it?” “The closest token coordinate to the Land of Inheritance is still a billion light-years away,” Zhenyan King replied. “That far?” Luo Feng was astonished. Even the fastest spaceship would take over a year to travel that distance in the dark universe. “I do have a servant whose token coordinate is considerably closer; it would take about half a year by spaceship,” Luo Feng said, then waved his hand. Beside him appeared an alien creature covered in scales, its face veiled by a thin purple membrane. This immediately drew the attention of other human powerful beings on the void land. “That’s Zhenyan King.” “How is it possible? Zhenyan King actually left Chaos City?” “He really did come out.” “Who is that beside Zhenyan King? Dressed in black combat armor…” “Could it be Daohe King? Rumors say Daohe King is Luo Feng, and that’s highly probable. Look how close that black-armored man is to Zhenyan King. Luo Feng is Zhenyan King’s disciple, after all. And we’ve never seen this black-armored man before… his aura is so powerful, he might very well be Daohe King, having concealed his supreme treasure wings!” Although their discussions were hushed, these human powerful beings deliberately made no effort to block their voices, clearly intending for Luo Feng to overhear and observe his reaction. Luo Feng and Zhenyan King exchanged glances. “They’re quite accurate with their guesses,” Zhenyan King transmitted telepathically, a hint of amusement in his eyes. “Disciple, your reputation is truly extraordinary now.” “It’s not surprising they guessed it. Many have speculated that Daohe King is Luo Feng, and there are also rumors that my supreme treasure is those silver wings,” Luo Feng transmitted back, a touch of helplessness in his voice. “Moreover, there are only so many powerful beings in the human race, and most know each other. For an unfamiliar face to suddenly appear, walking so closely with you, Teacher, and with my physique being similar to an Earthling’s, their guesses aren’t strange.” “Haha, you’ve got quite a bit of trouble on your hands,” Zhenyan King teased. “Who cares? Being famous isn’t necessarily a bad thing.” Luo Feng looked at his servant and commanded, “God Kingdom teleportation.” “Yes.” The alien servant immediately initiated the God Kingdom teleportation. *Buzz*—a hazy, sea-blue light enveloped them. Within this light, Luo Feng and Zhenyan King vaguely saw the vast world at the other end of the connecting channel—that was the alien servant’s God Kingdom. *Whoosh!* Luo Feng, Zhenyan King, and the alien servant vanished simultaneously. … Using the God Kingdom as a transit point, they quickly arrived at a secluded location, immeasurably distant from human territory. It was inside a star within a remote starfield in the cosmos. “Your servant is interesting, hiding the token inside a star.” “There are countless stars in the cosmos, and stars are so vast with such strong energy fluctuations. Hiding tokens there is indeed a good idea.” Master and disciple, a golden light and a black light, flew out of the star, side-by-side. “Disciple, what’s the maximum speed of your spaceship?” Zhenyan King asked. “72 times light speed in the dark universe,” Luo Feng replied, a hint of frustration. “I originally had an 80 times light speed biological spaceship, but it was taken by that Universe Venerable.” “You’re quite something, to provoke the Qingdoukou Venerable,” Zhenyan King said with a shake of his head and a smile. The two had conversed for a long time when they met in the Primal Secret Region earlier. Zhenyan King had asked Luo Feng how he obtained the Beast God Inheritance Token, and Luo Feng had given a rough explanation. Although he concealed some important information, he directly mentioned the Qingdoukou Venerable and others. “My spaceship, however, can reach nearly 90 times light speed,” Zhenyan King chuckled. “Haha, finally something to be proud of.” “Nearly 90 times light speed?” Luo Feng was surprised. Zhenyan King waved his hand. A streamlined, shuttle-shaped spaceship, gleaming golden, appeared in the starry sky. “Master,” the golden shuttle-shaped spaceship spoke, “you’re finally using me! It’s been so many years; I haven’t been able to fly freely in the dark universe for ages.” “This is a metal lifeform,” Zhenyan King explained with a smile. “Ever since I entered Chaos City, I haven’t brought him out for a long time. Come, let’s go in.” The hatch opened. Luo Feng and Zhenyan King entered the shuttle-shaped spaceship. Immediately, the spaceship transformed into a golden streak, its speed rapidly accelerating, quickly reaching light speed and entering the dark universe. Once inside the dark universe, it accelerated even more frantically, its speed continuously climbing… “89 times, 90 times, 91 times! Oh, no more acceleration, hahaha, it’s over 91 times light speed!” The metal lifeform’s cheerful voice echoed through the spaceship. “Gagagaga, Master is out adventuring again! It was so lonely, so lonely!” A cute girl’s avatar also appeared on the spaceship’s control panel, chirping away. “A girl?” Luo Feng, sitting on the sofa with a wine glass, spat out his drink. Zhenyan King glared, shouting at the control panel, “Weren’t you an old man before?” “After being suppressed for billions of years, old turns young, male turns female, is that not allowed?” the intelligent lifeform retorted. “Haha…” Luo Feng burst into laughter. “Teacher, oh Teacher, you’ve suppressed your intelligent lifeform for so long, it’d be strange if there weren’t some changes.” Zhenyan King shook his head, glaring in exasperation. … Interstellar travel was monotonous. The external scenery remained unchanging. At first, Luo Feng chatted with Teacher Zhenyan, but after a heavy drinking session, both returned to their respective cabins to slowly cultivate. Although the spaceship was incredibly fast, it would still take four months to reach the Land of Inheritance. In his cabin, the Demon Killer clone remained, while Luo Feng’s Earthling true body returned to his inner world to cultivate the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual. Inside the inner world, on the endless grasslands, a gentle breeze made countless green blades of grass sway. Luo Feng looked up at the majestic Golden Horned Beast in the distance. “The third metal plate of the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual has truly brought me immense gains,” Luo Feng thought, filled with joy. Previously, obtaining the first two metal plates only granted him the secret arts for the first, second, and fifth tribulations, leaving gaps in the other six. However, with the addition of the third metal plate, the third and fourth tribulations were perfectly completed. This meant Luo Feng could now cultivate three more tribulations consecutively. “The first tribulation triples the gene level. The second tribulation makes it six times, the third 12 times, the fourth 24 times, and the fifth 48 times,” Luo Feng mused, gazing at the Golden Horned Beast in the distance. During his two thousand years trapped in the ice prison, the Golden Horned Beast had long since successfully cultivated these. But as he continued cultivating, Luo Feng discovered a major problem! The Golden Horned Beast’s inherent gene level was already powerful, 10 times that of a human. Now, cultivating the first five tribulations of the heaven-defying Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, this Golden Horned Beast’s gene level reached an astonishing 480 times that of a human! This was an incredibly heaven-defying figure. Many special lifeforms weren’t this extraordinary. Neither Doukou nor Yinmou, for instance, were more than about a hundred times that of a human. “480 times… truly heaven-defying,” Luo Feng secretly marveled. “This means that when I become an undying being, a normal King-level undying human’s divine body has a basic limit of 100,000 times Sector Lord battle power, but the Golden Horned Beast can easily reach 48 million times Sector Lord power.” “Many special lifeforms aren’t even this strong.” Special lifeforms generally possess gene levels around a hundred times that of humans, with the weakest still being at least ten times. A very small number of lifeforms can exceed 500 times, and it’s extremely rare to find those exceeding 1,000 or even several thousand times. The more heaven-defying they are, the rarer their numbers. Conversely, special lifeforms with lower gene levels are more numerous. For example, there are quite a few Doukou. In contrast, beings like the ‘Beast God’ or Sitting Mountain Guest’s divine body are simply too extraordinary; each is unique in the cosmos. “I had already guessed that as the life gene level becomes stronger, the effect of Blood Luo Force would diminish,” Luo Feng sighed to himself. “Back then, Blood Luo Force could strengthen my right hoof by a hundredfold and my overall body strength by tenfold.” “However…” “Blood Luo Force, after all, is not omnipotent.” “It can strengthen humans, and it can strengthen the Golden Horned Beast. But can it strengthen lifeforms at the Beast God level? Blood Luo Force is essentially the essence energy contained within the Beast God’s blood,” Luo Feng mused. When the body’s life gene level was low, Blood Luo Force had a very noticeable effect. But for lifeforms like Sitting Mountain Guest, or some unique, heaven-defying special lifeforms in the cosmos, Blood Luo Force would likely be completely useless! The same principle applied. The Golden Horned Beast, cultivating the unique Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, had already become comparable to a special lifeform, reaching a 480-times gene level. When the Golden Horned Beast activated the Blood Luo Force within its body again… it still had an effect, but it was significantly weaker. “The Golden Horned Beast’s right hoof is still very strong, but it now only accounts for 2 times the body’s overall strength,” Luo Feng thought. Back then, it was equivalent to 10 times the body’s overall strength. Now it was only 2 times. Moreover, ever since successfully cultivating the third tribulation… Luo Feng discovered that the right hoof’s power had reached its limit and could no longer be improved. The fourth and fifth tribulations could not enhance the right hoof’s power; it had already reached its peak. “Once Blood Luo Force is activated, increasing it by two times, the Golden Horned Beast’s basic gene level will exceed 1,000 times,” Luo Feng mused. “This is extremely rare even among special lifeforms. I should be content. I’ll continue cultivating. The Nine Tribulations Secret Manual truly lives up to its reputation as a heaven-defying secret art that, despite requiring the Heavenly Soul Crystal to bear its power, is still restricted by the cosmic operational laws, allowing only a single practitioner.” … As his cultivation grew stronger, the power of the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual gradually revealed itself. Four months later. “Disciple, disciple, we’re about to reach the Land of Inheritance, come out quickly!” Zhenyan King’s voice echoed. The Land of Inheritance had arrived!
