Chapter 356: Blade
The silver-haired woman and Luo Feng walked through the depths of the Large Hunyuan Hall. Wherever they passed, space-ti shifted and transford.
“Hmm?” Luo Feng saw, in the distance, a ferocious flaming figure trapped within a spatial cage. Its entire body was covered in fur, with strands of fla rising from it. Even its breathing carried Primordial power. At this mont, it climbed about in anger while gazing toward Luo Feng from afar.
rely being stared at by it caused Luo Feng’s heart to tremble inexplicably.
“The gap is enormous.”
“The aura it exhales alone could turn into ashes. With a single claw, even tens of thousands of would be annihilated.”
At this mont, Luo Feng was completely certain.
With his current energy reserves of 1.2 billion tis, in terms of size, he should be able to reach ten to twenty percent of that world-destroying demon god! Yet in terms of “quality,” the gap was far too great. As a result, no matter how many of him there were, facing a true High-Rank Primordial Lifeform, he would have no ability to resist!
“Only by escaping the Cage can there be a qualitative transformation,” Luo Feng thought to himself.
Now, he already had the confidence to escape the Cage by relying on three kinds of High-Rank Primordial Bloodlines!
But Luo Feng was not in a hurry to choose.
What he needed now was to first perfect the Life and Death Path. Once that was done, he would be Guided by Senior Yuan and the others, and at that ti, he should be able to learn the most suitable way to escape the Cage!
“This is a High-Rank Primordial Lifeform,” the silver-haired woman said from the side. “Within the Infinite Primordial Space, Low-Rank Primordial Lifeforms are countless and weak. Only High-Rank Primordial Lifeforms receive so degree of attention and can play a role in factional wars.”
Luo Feng understood.
Low-Rank Primordial Lifeforms had no role at all in factional wars.
“World-level Primordial Lifeforms are already considered powerful beings who wage war across all directions. In ordinary conflicts, it is generally only World-level Primordial experts who participate,” the silver-haired woman said.
Luo Feng also knew this.
High-Rank Primordial Lifeforms, World-level Primordial experts, and Primordial Lords—these were the three major levels for cultivators after escaping the Cage, and the differences between them were imnse.
“Once the Lords enter the battlefield,” the silver-haired woman’s voice turned cold, “it signifies that war has begun! And right now, we are in the midst of war.”
Luo Feng listened.
“In factional wars, our losses are trendous. Entire world clusters can fall, and large numbers of Source Worlds beco food for the native Primordial Lifeforms,” the silver-haired woman said indifferently. “But the native Primordial Lifeform faction also suffers heavy losses. The lowest-tier participants—High-Rank Primordial Lifeforms—die in numbers counted in the hundreds of millions. We have also slain quite a number of World-level Primordial Lifeforms. The seven World-level Primordial corpses placed in the Large Hunyuan Hall of the Dark Sacred Realm were all freshly killed in a war tens of thousands of eras ago.”
Luo Feng was sowhat astonished.
Seven World-level Primordial Lifeform corpses, killed just tens of thousands of eras ago?
“Even Primordial Ancestors have been slain,” the silver-haired woman said, looking at Luo Feng. “This war is different from the past. The native Primordial Lifeform faction does not care about casualties and is attacking at all costs. What the cultivator faction can do is only to fight back!”
“The situation is that bad?” Luo Feng asked.
“Very bad.”
The silver-haired woman looked at Luo Feng. “Cultivator Luo Feng, a practitioner of the Fusion Path—when you are Guided, you will learn more.”
“You know I cultivate the Fusion Path?” Luo Feng looked at her.
“Of course I know.”
The silver-haired woman looked at Luo Feng. “Every puppet lifeform within the Large Hunyuan Hall is a part of . As the guardian of the Dark Sacred Realm, nothing can be hidden from .”
“You have great potential and will beco an important force in our cultivator faction in the future,” the silver-haired woman said. “But for now, you are still too weak.”
She continued forward with Luo Feng.
Luo Feng looked at the surrounding spatial cages. Each cage imprisoned a High-Rank Primordial Lifeform, and every one of them brought him an extrely terrifying sense of pressure.
Yet these terrifying beings were rely the lowest-level soldiers on the factional battlefield.
“If escaping the Cage only results in becoming a High-Rank Primordial Lifeform, then it truly has no value to the entire cultivator faction,” Luo Feng thought. He needed to beco stronger.
The further they went, the more High-Rank Primordial prisoners he saw. Facing the gaze of hundreds of such beings at once was also a test of ntal will. Yet Luo Feng calmly walked through the entire path.
No matter what, they were only prisoners and could not harm him in the slightest.
“You’ve finished viewing the Primordial prisoners. What else do you want to see?” the silver-haired woman asked.
“Let take a look at the corpses of Primordial Lifeforms,” Luo Feng said.
The silver-haired woman nodded.
Space-ti shifted. After walking for only a short while, nurous High-Rank Primordial Lifeform corpses appeared before Luo Feng.
“In war, there are far too many High-Rank Primordial Lifeform corpses, so they are freely exchanged by cultivators,” the silver-haired woman said. “For just one trillion Primordial Crystals, you can exchange for one High-Rank Primordial Lifeform corpse. Many cultivators join forces to purchase one together.”
Luo Feng knew about this.
One trillion Primordial Crystals for a High-Rank Primordial Lifeform corpse might seem expensive, but in reality, dozens or even over a hundred cultivators could pool resources to afford one. After research, the materials from the corpse could still recover most of the cost, so the price was not considered too high.
“So many corpses.”
Luo Feng looked at the massive corpses stretching like mountain ranges. Each corpse still carried strong resentnt—unwillingness, despair, anger. The accumulation of such resentnt from so many corpses made Luo Feng feel oppressed.
After a long while, he finished viewing all the High-Rank Primordial Lifeform corpses displayed in the Large Hunyuan Hall.
“This is—”
Luo Feng saw them.
Seven incomparably massive corpses—each larger than the landmass of the Origin Continent itself.
Compared to them, those High-Rank Primordial Lifeforms were insignificant.
The smallest among them had a volu equal to five-thousandths of the entire Source World of the Origin Continent, while the largest reached two percent of it!
“Too enormous.” Luo Feng looked up in shock. “The hidden space within the Large Hunyuan Hall can actually be this vast, easily accommodating seven such gigantic corpses.”
Facing these seven World-level Primordial Lifeform corpses, Luo Feng truly felt as if he were facing a Source World.
The pressure was overwhelming.
At this level, even a glance from them would likely reduce him to ashes.
Yet in the factional war, they had still died!
“Even thousands or tens of thousands of High-Rank Primordial Lifeforms cannot withstand a single move from a World-level Primordial,” the silver-haired woman said. “The gap between major levels is extrely vast.”
Luo Feng nodded. He could see that clearly.
“On the factional battlefield, even Primordial Ancestors have fallen. Only the Lords of our cultivator faction have never died,” the silver-haired woman said confidently. “The war between the two factions has lasted endless years. Even though we are currently at an absolute disadvantage, I believe the final victory will belong to us. Because the Lords are immortal.”
Luo Feng knew that so Primordial Ancestors had indeed died—one of the blood-red scales of his Star Tower originated from a Primordial Ancestor.
“The Lords are immortal, yet we are still at an absolute disadvantage?” Luo Feng could not help but ask. If even their own side admitted to being at an absolute disadvantage, just how bad was it?
The silver-haired woman was slightly stunned, then softly sighed.
“You will understand once you are Guided,” she did not explain further.
The only thing the cultivator faction could boast about was that their Lords were immortal. It was also what allowed cultivators to believe in eventual victory and continue fighting at all costs.
At this mont, Luo Feng knew the cultivator faction was at a disadvantage, but he did not yet understand the true situation within the Infinite Primordial Space.
……
Afterward, Luo Feng viewed all kinds of rare treasures and secret treasures. Anything stored within the Large Hunyuan Hall, he examined thoroughly.
“You’ve now seen all the rare and secret treasures,” the silver-haired woman said as she looked at Luo Feng. “Is there anything you wish to exchange for?”
“Secret treasures worth more than ten million Battle rits aren’t stored here?” Luo Feng asked.
The exchange price of secret treasures ranged from ten thousand to fifty million Battle rits.
“Yes. The Large Hunyuan Hall only stores secret treasures worth under ten million Battle rits,” the silver-haired woman said. “As for those above ten million Battle rits, any single one of them may be comparable in value to a World-level Primordial Lifeform corpse. Therefore, they are specially stored and not kept within the Dark Sacred Realm.”
Luo Feng understood.
He had also noticed this.
Secret treasures worth over ten million Battle rits corresponded to those worth over one hundred thousand Reward Points in the Infinite Space—not inferior to the Eye of Life and Death. So were even more precious!
“Secret treasures above ten million Battle rits are limited to one purchase per cultivator and cannot be traded,” Luo Feng sighed inwardly.
In the Infinite Space, exchanges using Reward Points were not limited in quantity—but the acquisition of Reward Points was restricted.
“You may study them carefully.”
The silver-haired woman smiled slightly, then departed.
……
Luo Feng returned to his cave dwelling, which was located within the Large Hunyuan Hall. He could exchange for treasures at any ti. He carefully studied the detailed information of each secret treasure worth over ten million Battle rits.
“My Life and Death Path has deviated sowhat,” Luo Feng realized as his accumulation deepened.
“My path of cultivation has been most influenced by the Star Tower! Back in the Origin Continent, I carefully observed that blood-red scale. It was like a lamp in the darkness, guiding my direction,” Luo Feng frowned. “But in that blood-red scale, the secret patterns I observed were composed of 34.2% Life and only 9.2% Destruction.”
“Using it as guidance caused my Life and Death Path to lean more toward Life.”
What Luo Feng pursued was an ultimate, massive lifeform, and then transforming that imnse vitality into destruction, naturally achieving terrifying destructive power.
But this path, in essence, leaned more toward Life.
Even at the Divine King stage, his cultivation already leaned toward Life.
“My Life and Death Path, strictly speaking, is a fusion of seventy percent Life and thirty percent Destruction.”
“From the very beginning, influenced by the Star Tower, my direction was already skewed. I can no longer turn back. I can only walk this path to the end,” Luo Feng clearly understood there was no such thing as a wrong path.
Even pure Life could reach the highest level.
A fusion of seventy percent Life and thirty percent Destruction could still reach the Half-Primordial Level and continue onward.
“I still need a secret treasure that can mutually verify with the Star Tower’s blood-red scale,” Luo Feng thought. By cross-referencing the two, he could broaden his perspective.
“This secret treasure must contain the profundity of the Primordial Ancestor level, include both Life and Destruction, and lean toward Destruction,” Luo Feng thought.
The blood-red scale focused on Life.
Then the other treasure should focus on Destruction.
With both as references, his Life and Death Path could progress more smoothly.
“From this perspective, it should be this one.”
Luo Feng selected one of the secret treasures.
Split-Sky Blade: A weapon naturally ford in a mysterious region of the Infinite Primordial Space. It contains the highest-level profundity of Destruction, yet within endless, terrifying destruction, it also harbors vitality. This blade is suitable for practitioners of the Destruction Path and the Life Path. Exchange price: 30 million Battle rits.
“It contains the highest-level Destruction profundity, yet also harbors vitality? Primarily Destruction, supplented by Life? This is it.” Luo Feng chose it. He had always liked blades but had never encountered a suitable blade-type secret treasure.
Now, he had finally found one!
“Cultivator Luo Feng, are you sure you want to exchange for the Split-Sky Blade?” a gentle voice sounded.
“Confird,” Luo Feng replied.
“Should the Split-Sky Blade be transmitted to the Dark Sacred Realm, or to your ho Source World?” the gentle voice said. “Although the Split-Sky Blade was not refined from native Primordial Lifeform materials, its value is extrely high. Outside the Source World, it may still attract danger.”
“Transmit it to my ho Source World,” Luo Feng said.
