Swallowed Star
chapter-1279

Human territory, Earth.

Luo Feng arrived at Earth through god country transportation. Although Sitting Mountain Guest arrived at the human territory, he didn’t go to the primal secret region. After all, it was heavily guarded, and there was a large group of universe masters… Even Sitting Mountain Guest couldn’t get in without being noticed.

Luo Feng arrived at his palace in Yangzhou City. His palace only had a few guards. As for the Luos, they were in the primal universe already.

“Teacher?” Luo Feng turned his head around and looked to the northeast. He could feel the force emanating from that direction.

Although there were guards, they couldn’t see Luo Feng walking past them. Nor did they notice his presence. After a short while, he entered a giant garden where the Luos appreciated beautiful scenery. There were all kinds of plants of different colors and shapes. They were all breathtaking. There was also a variety of animals, and Sitting Mountain Guest stood, playing with a blue-feathered bird.

“Teacher!” shouted Luo Feng.

“This garden looks nice,” Sitting Mountain Guest said, playing with the bird. “You clearly invited a master to design this. It’s indeed different to have power; you don’t even need to give an order, and countless talented creatures will serve you. However, I’m a loner without any power… It seems I need to find a group in order to be an alliance master.”

Luo Feng smiled. “If you join the Hong Alliance…”

“Then what? I’ll be the leader of the Hong Alliance?” Sitting Mountain Guest looked to Luo Feng. “Do the humans want me to be their leader?”

Luo Feng smiled awkwardly. It was impossible. The human race was a pinnacle race, and no pinnacle races would recognize a supreme master from another race as their leader. The pride ingrained in humans forbade them from doing that! They could regard Sitting Mountain Guest at the most senior being, but they wouldn’t give Sitting Mountain Guest very much power.

“Even if you did give that position to me, I wouldn’t do that.” Sitting Mountain Guest shook his head. “The human race is in danger now, and countless powers want to fight you. I’m not stupid enough to enter Hong Alliance now.”

“Teacher,” said Luo Feng. “You’re right. The human race is indeed in danger, and it needs lots of help. Can Teacher join our team?”

Sitting Mountain Guest sat down in a green chair and said, “Luo Feng, I’ve told you before that you’re on your own on the path to becoming a great being, so I can’t help you much. The time you were trapped in the ninth abyss was an exception, as I didn’t know how long you would be trapped there. As for the human race, it has nothing to do with me. I couldn’t care less about the humans. With your power, you’re 100 percent safe in the original universe now—not to mention, you have Star Tower and Boat of Mausoleum. I don’t see any reason I should meddle.”

Luo Feng was dazed. It was a firm no. Luo Feng had thought there was at least some hope. “Teacher…” he said.

“Stop asking,” said Sitting Mountain Guest. “I won’t join the humans. Say no more. I came here…” He looked at Luo Feng. “Because last time you sent a message to me, you mentioned that you acquired a drop of blood from a great being of an ancient civilization. The godly blood has enormous mental force, and you want me to make a true treasure using that?”

Luo Feng nodded. “Yes, that drop of godly blood can spread its mental force in all directions. However, I want to concentrate it in a single direction, which will make its shock much more powerful! Can you achieve that, Teacher?”

“I’ve promised you that every time you kill a universe master, I’ll make a true treasure for you.” Sitting Mountain Guest smiled. “I heard that you killed Demon Universe Master, so I’m here.”

Luo Feng had mixed feelings. Wow…! he thought.

His teacher was so fixated on the promise. It seemed that his teacher had been back in the original universe for a long time, but he only came after he knew his disciple had killed a universe master.

“Give me the godly blood first,” said Sitting Mountain Guest.

“Okay, but we should enter space interlayers first,” said Luo Feng. “This ‘mind shock’ is too powerful, and I don’t want to harm the earthlings.”

That drop of godly blood might annihilate all the humans on Earth. After all, the mental force could put universe masters in agony, let alone ordinary humans.

“Okay.” Sitting Mountain Guest shook his body, and a space crack showed up.

Both Sitting Mountain Guest and Luo Feng entered the crack.

******

Inside the space interlayers were countless space fragments. There, Luo Feng and Sitting Mountain Guest appeared.

“Please take a look, Teacher,” said Luo Feng.

He turned his hands, and Boat of Mausoleum showed up. It grew bigger and turned into a boat 10 meters long. The drop of blood emerged from Boat of Mausoleum and showed up on the top of the boat. It was surrounded by a black halo.

Hong! Hong! Hong!

The “mind shock” spread, striking Luo Feng and Sitting Mountain Guest. However, even Luo Feng could withstand it—let alone Sitting Mountain Guest.

“Godly blood?” Sitting Mountain Guest nodded. “I rarely see this kind of strange object. How did you get it?”

“By luck,” said Luo Feng.

“You need power, too,” said Sitting Mountain Guest. “Otherwise, if you don’t have strong enough willpower, you couldn’t even be near it. Besides, ordinary valuables couldn’t hold that drop of godly power, and ordinary godly power can’t be near it.” He smiled. “Lots of great beings wouldn’t be able to even extract that godly blood.”

Luo Feng was amazed that Sitting Mountain Guest could already tell so much before even studying it.

“Do you have a plan, Teacher?” asked Luo Feng.

“You want to make a true treasure out of this drop of godly blood and concentrate the mind shock, don’t you?” Sitting Mountain Guest nodded. “If I consume enough material and spend enough time, I can make a supreme true treasure out of it. However, it’ll take a long time, and chances are, I’ll fail.”

“A supreme true treasure?” said Luo Feng. “I only need a true treasure for its ‘mind shock’ ability.”

“Okay,” said Sitting Mountain Guest. “For you humans, I suppose a strange valuable that can attack all great beings with minds inferior to universe supreme masters is more useful than a supreme true treasure. The core of this true treasure is godly blood! All I need to do is concentrate that mind, so it’s much easier than making pinnacle true treasures. It’s not difficult to make them. It’ll only take three days to make it. As for the material? It’s not precious. I have a lot, so I’ll use what I have.”

Luo Feng was exhilarated and said, “Teacher, I have two drops of godly blood. Can you make two…?”

“Two drops?” Sitting Mountain Guest was amazed.

Luo Feng smirked. Ever since acquiring the white wing, he had used his contribution points to exchange for lots of precious materials for the white wing to swallow! Some of the damage to it had been healed, and a puddle of blood had been repelled, forming a drop of godly blood.

He had two drops of godly blood in total now. While he had been fighting the demon race, there had been one drop in Boat of Mausoleum and another drop in Star Tower.

“Don’t count on it.” Sitting Mountain Guest shook his head. “I told you that for every universe master you kill, I can make you a true treasure. This is your first time, and the materials are not expensive, so I’ll use my own. However, you’ll need to kill another universe master if you want me to make the second one.”

“Teacher,” said Luo Feng. “I killed a universe master during the fight, and I used Boat of Mausoleum to capture three! Those three are dead now, so I can say I killed them.”

“Dead? Were they killed in the primal universe?” Sitting Mountain Guest shook his head. “That doesn’t count. You used the primal universe origin to kill them, not your own power.”

Luo Feng was rendered speechless.

“Okay,” decided Sitting Mountain Guest. “I’ll only make one true treasure for you. Say no more. Otherwise, I won’t even make this one.”

Luo Feng could only lower his head and agree.

Sitting Mountain Guest took out his green mountain, and the drop of godly blood fell on it, which easily contained it.

“I’ll give you the true treasure three days from now,” said Sitting Mountain Guest.

“Teacher,” said Luo Feng. “I obtained the inheritance of Duan Dong River…”

“Huh? The inheritance of Duan Dong River?” Sitting Mountain Guest turned around and glanced at Luo Feng. “Do you think you can read about how you transcend incarnations under the original mind?”

Luo Feng was dazed. “I can’t.”

“Then it’s useless!” Sitting Mountain Guest shook his head. “I’m the best at making true treasures in Universe Ocean. Unless it’s information about incarnation transcendence, it’s useless to me! I’m just one step away…”

Luo Feng blinked. Damn it, he thought.

He had planned to tell Sitting Mountain Guest something about the information about universe supreme masters in Duan Dong River inheritance, but Sitting Mountain Guest didn’t give a damn about it.

“You’ll understand after you reach my level. The information is useless,” said Sitting Mountain Guest. “Like your teacher, Primal Chaos City Leader. He might also be stuck at the last step, and he can only become a universe supreme master after making that breakthrough. The training experience you have on hand is also useless to him. Training experience is useful to those who haven’t reached the limit, but it’s useless to those who have.

“However, although it’s useless to me, none of the other beings in the original universe have reached the limit of a universe supreme master yet—even the late Huge Axe Creator. Only Teacher Origin reached the limit. If he hadn’t been suppressed, he might have transcended incarnations already.” Sitting Mountain Guest stared at Luo Feng. “All those lone universe supreme masters want to transcend incarnations, so you must be wary of them. Even the old beast god and the three ancestral gods.”

“Okay.”

“As for me, I’m just an audience.” Sitting Mountain Guest laughed and disappeared in the space storms.

Luo Feng stood in the distance.

Luo Feng stayed on Earth and waited, and after three days, Sitting Mountain Guest came back with the true treasure he had made.
