Third Avatar

Perhaps the Nine You Master didn't know the true purpose of Luo Feng acquiring the Blood Sea Water, or perhaps he knew but harbored other intentions. Regardless, Luo Feng's objective was achieved!

“Whether he truly didn't know or feigned ignorance, my strength is what truly matters!”

“With the Blood Sea Water in hand, I can now gestate my third avatar.”

Luo Feng was ecstatic.

He had initially thought he would need to rely on Chaos City Lord's favor to obtain the Blood Sea Water, but unexpectedly, merely joining a peripheral organization was enough.

“Many powerhouses in our human race have joined peripheral organizations,” Luo Feng said, a wide smile on his face. “As my strength grows, and with so many opportunities to receive the Beast God Inheritance, I'm fully confident I'll complete the five-layered inheritance in the future. At that point, wouldn't I have to join anyway?”

Candidate God Envoys, Candidate God Generals, and those who have fully completed the five-layered (or higher) Beast God Inheritance are all required to join the Ancestral God Sect's peripheral organizations!

But now, Luo Feng was invited to join.

Peerless geniuses like Zhuchong King, Howling Mirror King, and Luo Feng, who are recognized for their heaven-defying talent—capable of confronting Universe Venerables at the Immortal level, and possessing the might of a Universe Overlord upon reaching the Universe Venerable level, with the potential to achieve Universe Master combat power with further improvement—are snatched up early by the Ancestral God Sect.

After all, if these peerless geniuses fail in the Path of the Beast God, they might not come to Purple Thorn Island. If they pursue the Path of Space-Time, they could still achieve great things. So, they are invited to join beforehand! This prevents future peerless powerhouses from slipping through their grasp.

“I am destined for success on the Path of the Beast God,” Luo Feng murmured.

“If I have to join in the future, joining early makes no difference.”

“Because of this, I've escaped a calamity, hahaha…” Luo Feng hadn't expected that after all his efforts, he would end up as a subordinate of the Nine You Master.

As one of their own, things are easier.

The Nine You Master didn't make things difficult for him.

“Hahaha, exhilarating, truly exhilarating.” The more Luo Feng thought about it, the more excited he became.

“Congratulations, Master, my heartfelt congratulations.”

Inside the grand hall, Tianzhen King bowed respectfully.

“Mm.”

Luo Feng waved his hand, summoning the World Ring that was temporarily with Tianzhen King. He then sat cross-legged, while his Demon Killer Clan avatar, carrying the Blood Sea Water, entered his inner world.

...

Within the inner world's core.

“Owooo~~~”

The Golden Horned Beast, stretching for thousands of kilometers, let out an excited roar. The sound rumbled like thunder, echoing far and wide.

“There are nine World Trees, but the Nine You Master has a full 108 princes. Including the Nine You Master himself, there are 109 beings of their kind,” the Demon Killer Clan avatar said, standing in mid-air. Before him, a basin-sized pool of fresh blood floated and churned, emitting waves of a bloody scent.

“109! The Nine You Master is so powerful, I refuse to believe that every single prince has such an outrageous life level.”

“It must succeed, it must!”

The Demon Killer Clan avatar stared intently at the Blood Sea Water.

Although he rationally believed the success rate was extremely high, Luo Feng didn't know the exact life level of the princes, and he had failed once before. So, at this moment, he couldn't help but feel nervous!

“The moment of destiny!” Both the Demon Killer Clan avatar and the Golden Horned Beast calmed down, their gazes fixed on the basin-sized pool of fresh blood.

Whoosh!

Carried by the 'world power' of the inner world, the mass of Blood Sea Water shot into the sky, flying directly towards the distant high heavens.

The entire world fell silent.

After a long while...

The mass of Blood Sea Water reached the central core of the inner world.

“Innate Secret Technique—Avatar! Gestate!” Luo Feng's will controlled the entire inner world.

As the final of his three lifetime avatar gestations began, the entire inner world vibrated with a rumbling sound... Endless world power surged madly towards the mass of Blood Sea Water at the world's core. The Blood Sea Water instantly dissipated like mist, leaving only the most fundamental life material enveloped by the boundless world power.

A golden sphere appeared high in the sky.

...

“It must succeed.” Luo Feng, sitting cross-legged in the grand hall, and his Demon Killer Clan avatar and Golden Horned Beast, watching the scene in the inner world, were equally nervous, because the previous attempt had failed right at the beginning.

...

In truth, Luo Feng's decision to devour metal to promote the evolution of his 'inner world' had greatly expanded it, reaching a diameter of nearly 100 million kilometers! Therefore, the limit for avatars his 'inner world' could gestate was extremely high. However, the life level of the 'World Tree' last time still exceeded the inner world's capacity.

What about this time?

...

The avatar gestation had begun.

Luo Feng's consciousness constantly sensed everything, and in just a moment.

“Success, all life material has been analyzed, true gestation has begun.” Luo Feng's consciousness quickly perceived this.

“Hahaha…” The Demon Killer Clan avatar laughed loudly. “This third avatar is destined to be the Blood Sea Nine You avatar. In the future, I will possess an endless source of divine power. Even if I fall, I can be reborn. That is true immortality!”

“Owooo~~” The Golden Horned Beast let out an excited roar.

“Exhilarating, truly exhilarating.” Luo Feng, who had been sitting cross-legged in the grand hall, stood up directly, laughing heartily. He grabbed the nearby Tianzhen King, “Tianzhen, drink with me.” He even summoned some other Pinnacle King-tier servants, and they drank heartily, thoroughly enjoying themselves!

...

As the avatar gestation began, Luo Feng's consciousness also sensed that gestating this third avatar would likely take over 600 years!

The stronger the inner world, the easier the gestation.

The more powerful the lifeform being gestated, the longer the gestation time.

The Earthling body took just over a year to gestate.

The Demon Killer Clan avatar took three years and nine months.

The Blood Sea Nine You avatar, however, required over 600 years. If Luo Feng hadn't chosen to devour metal to promote his inner world, but instead used a normal Golden Horned Beast's 'Sector Lord Level 9' inner world for gestation, it would probably take over ten thousand years.

“Over 600 years for successful gestation is within my expectations, after all, it's a special lifeform.” Luo Feng was in a joyful mood. Before, he had taken risks and tried every method to find this third avatar. Now that gestation had begun, he could relax and focus on cultivation.

What's 600 years? He could easily pass these 600 years in cultivation, and then his third avatar would be complete.

“To the Ancestral God Sect!”

“During these 600 years, I must diligently study and comprehend. Breaking through to Immortality won't be difficult for me, but becoming a Universe Venerable will be quite challenging.” Luo Feng was well aware of this. His space laws had only truly grasped 'teleportation.' While he had some insights into 'space strangulation' and 'space lockdown,' he was still far from fully comprehending them.

Only by comprehending all three aspects.

And integrating them into one, would he truly master complete space laws! Countless peerless geniuses had comprehended all three but couldn't take that final step. Like Zhenyan King in the past, and Zhuchong King, Howling Mirror King, and others... all were like this. Luo Feng dared not be careless.

“The more profound the accumulation, the more beneficial it will be for breakthroughs.”

“Also, since I've comprehended the third chapter, it's time to create the third forms of the 'Star Preaching Diagram' and 'Bright Moon Strategy,'” Luo Feng thought, realizing he indeed had many things to do.

...

After a hearty drinking session, Luo Feng reported to Chaos City Lord. Chaos City Lord was overjoyed to learn that Luo Feng had managed to gestate his third avatar without even using his favor. He repeatedly said, “Haha, those powerful Universe Masters who have close ties with the Ancestral God Sect, though they are leaders of various factions within the Ancestral God Sect's peripheral organization, are still just peripheral members. This Nine You... has lived for too long. Comparing himself with those old fellows has become his amusement.”

“Luo Feng, work hard. Since the Ancestral God Sect values you so much, Zhuchong King has two supreme treasures. The benefits from the Ancestral God Sect, don't hesitate to take them. Don't be soft-hearted then.”

“Yes, Master,” Luo Feng replied.

That same day.

Luo Feng's Earthling body left the Primal Secret Region and, via God Kingdom teleportation, arrived directly at the Ancestral God Sect's Purple Thorn Island.

...

Upon returning to Purple Thorn Island, Luo Feng first met with his master, Zhenyan Venerable, and friends like Thousand Rain King, Chaman King, and Lishuo King. Soon, news spread across Purple Thorn Island: “Daohe King is back!” “Daohe King has returned from the Nine You Space-Time!”

“Did Daohe King's supreme treasure fall into the core region accessible through the Nine You Vortex?”

“It must have been lost. That place is so dangerous that even Universe Venerables rarely return alive. Daohe King must have revived again using his innate avatar technique, just like when he was assassinated.”

“But I can't sense Daohe King's Sector Lord aura?”

“Yes, I also saw Daohe King, but didn't detect his Sector Lord aura.”

“I think Daohe King's supreme treasure might still be with him.”

“How is that possible? Even Venerables can't survive there, let alone him? In my opinion, either Daohe King has broken through to Immortality, or he has acquired a new supreme treasure.”

“A new supreme treasure?”

“The human race is a pinnacle race. While some lesser supreme treasures might be coveted by ordinary races, pinnacle races have plenty of them.”

The news spread wildly across the Glory World's open plaza, reaching Howling Mirror King's ears.

Inside his mansion.

Howling Mirror King's divine body had fully recovered, but his eyes were colder than ever. He was naturally cold and ruthless, and having been defeated by Zhenyan Venerable this time, he was filled with suppressed rage.

“No Sector Lord aura displayed. Has he broken through to Immortality? Or does he have a new supreme treasure?” Howling Mirror King gritted his teeth. “If he's reached Immortality, I'll kill him head-on! I am a powerful and noble special lifeform! If he has a supreme treasure, I'll snatch it! Daohe King, Zhenyan Venerable! Just you wait!”

...

Regardless of the rampant rumors outside, Luo Feng remained as steady as a mountain. After initially gathering with his master and friends, Luo Feng began a long period of secluded cultivation in his mansion.
