Chapter 458: Chapter 34: Heart Honing
In a vast region, here, dazzling divine light illuminates everywhere, causing space-time to collapse and twist into a gigantic space-time maze.
Inside this twisted space-time maze, at the source of the dazzling divine light, there is an enormous figure with eight hoofed feet and sixteen multicolored eyes observing multiple space-times.
He is Bawei Yu, a powerful existence ranked among the top thirty in the Endless Primordial Space.
“Who killed my clan member?” Bawei Yu sensed something, and an uncontrollable rage surged through him. For any tribe, a world-level Primordial is considered a core member! A name on the Ancestors’ key focus list.
Bawei Yu followed the sensation and gazed into the distance.
In terms of Void mastery, he is among the top ranks and could immediately see the place where his clan member perished, where a man in black clothes with black hair was standing.
Bawei Yu’s heart trembled.
“Luo Feng?” Bawei Yu instantly calmed down.
“Why did he kill my clan member?” Bawei Yu was puzzled. His sixteen eyes were watching that area from a distance, observing everything that happened in the past.
He clearly saw his clan member devouring a Source World Origin and encountered Luo Feng during the process. The moment Luo Feng descended, he annihilated that world-level Primordial.
“Was it because my clan member was consuming the Source World Origin, so Luo Feng came to kill him?” Bawei Yu pondered, “But this is my clan’s territory! These Source Worlds are food for my clan. Facing such fatal disaster for consuming food?”
“These Cultivator Lords all originate from within the Source World! They care about every single Source World… Is that why they took out their anger on my clan member?”
“But they have already occupied 3600 World Groups, and still not satisfied?”
Bawei Yu knew very well that the Cultivator Lords have been striving to expand their domain.
From the beginning with just one lord, ’Yuan’, as more lords emerged, the Cultivator Territory continuously grew! Now with Luo Feng, the newly advanced lord, who is terrifyingly powerful, has already ranked among the strongest in the Endless Primordial Space!
“Do they want to expand their territory again?” Bawei Yu pondered.
If the death of a clan member had been at the hands of other Ancestors or other world-level Primordials, Bawei Yu would not rest easily!
However…
Since it was Luo Feng, the leader of the Cultivator Camp, who acted, Bawei Yu decided to turn a blind eye.
No choice, as a weak force, Bawei Yu couldn’t afford to provoke the Cultivator Camp!
“If the Cultivator Camp truly wants to expand its territory, the ones who will have the most trouble are the Innate Primordial Camp and the Ice Peak Camp.” Bawei Yu thought, “I’d better keep my distance.”
…
“Such boldness, who dares to kill my clan member?”
The Thousand Eyes Ancestor was shocked and angry. Being a friend of ’Silent Extinction Ancestor,’ one of the Nine Emperors, it held a considerable status within the Innate Primordial Camp. Its clan only had a few dozen world-level Primordials, each highly valued by it.
In the vast territory under its command, there were also numerous world-level Primordials from other races! If world-level Primordials of other tribes perished, the Thousand Eyes Ancestor could handle it calmly. But this time, the one who died was a ’world-level Primordial of its own clan,’ naturally infuriating the Thousand Eyes Ancestor.
The Thousand Eyes Ancestor followed the sensation and gazed from afar, wanting to see who dared to kill its clan member.
Thus, it saw that black-haired, black-clothed figure.
The enraged Thousand Eyes Ancestor immediately calmed down.
“Luo Feng?”
The Thousand Eyes Ancestor whispered, “These Cultivator Lords are truly unscrupulous!” It didn’t dare seek trouble with Luo Feng and promptly informed its friend, Silent Extinction Ancestor, of the news.
The Nine Emperors are the highest ruling echelon of the Innate Primordial Camp.
…
With 3,916 avatars, Luo Feng killed about 3,000 world-level Primordials in a short time, around 500 from some weak forces, about 800 from the Ice Peak Camp, and about 1,700 from the Innate Primordial Camp.
The weak forces endured it, as the losses, relatively speaking, were minor.
“What is this Luo Feng doing?” The Ice Peak Ancestor on the 20th floor of the Abyss of Destruction, originally waiting for Luo Feng’s challenge, received the news that many of Luo Feng’s avatars acted across various domains, annihilating quite a few world-level Primordials.
The death of around 800 world-level Primordials did not concern the Ice Peak Ancestor.
After all, more than 90% of these world-level Primordials were not the clan members of the Ancestors! For one race to produce an ’Ancestor’ is extremely difficult.
In the Endless Primordial Space, there are over 30,000 world-level Primordial races! With barely over 200 Ancestors!
“He’s not solely targeting the Ice Peak Camp but all world-level Primordials acting against ’Source World.’” The Ice Peak Ancestor quickly discovered this fact.
“These lords are all very concerned about those Source Worlds.”
The Ice Peak Ancestor, annoyed.
Whenever a Cultivator Lord is born, their power can stabilize within the top twenty. Yet, each of them is undying and undying.
It should be noted that out of the top twenty, the Cultivator Camp occupies eight!
Thankfully, the Cultivator Lords are not greatly covetous of ’resources’ and do not frantically plunder numerous resources. This is also why the Ice Peak Camp and the Cultivator Camp have historically had good relations.
But as the Cultivator Camp continues to grow stronger and more lords emerge, the Ice Peak Camp is also feeling the pressure.
“The Innate Primordial Camp occupies the most expansive territory, let the Innate Primordial Camp and the Cultivator Camp fight.” The Ice Peak Ancestor silently watched and endured.
…
“Killed nearly 1,700 of our world-level Primordials?”
“All encountered Luo Feng’s avatars while acting against the Source World?”
The Infinite Snake Ancestor, having understood the situation, was also quite frustrated.
“These Cultivator Lords kill as they please! They often intervene even with Source Worlds outside their domain.” The Infinite Snake Ancestor had encountered such situations many times.
Like the Starlight Lord and Lord Mo Man, they frequently recruit some talented cultivators from countless Source Worlds outside the Cultivator Territory! While recruiting, they often crush some world-level Primordials acting against the Source World as well.
It must be known that the Cultivator Camp has collected the bloodlines of all ’world-level Primordial’ races! Over 30,000 races, 100% documented! Mostly achieved by the Starlight Lord.
The Starlight Lord, in order to document the bloodlines, once caused great panic among all world-level Primordials throughout the Endless Primordial Space!
Especially in some races that only have one world-level Primordial! Even more terrified!
“This Cultivator Camp, in the end, will become a significant threat!” The Infinite Snake Ancestor last attempted to push the entire camp into a large-scale war, but it ended as Luo Feng broke through.
Now, merely killing such a small number of world-level Primordials?
This won’t even trigger a large-scale war!
After all, as opposing camps, small-scale conflicts often occur under normal circumstances.
“Luo Feng’s strength already rivals Starlight and Sha Zhou. Even if a hundred ancestors from our side join forces, we can’t be sure of defeating the entire Cultivator Camp.” The Infinite Snake Ancestor was quite troubled.
“Unless, unless we join forces with the Ice Peak Camp.”
The Infinite Snake Ancestor immediately rejected the idea.
In terms of conflicts, the inherent conflict between the Innate Primordial Camp and the Ice Peak Camp is even greater!
The Cultivator Camp only cares about the Source World! They place far less importance on other resources.
The Ice Peak Camp, however, competes for all the resources needed by the Innate Primordials! The enmity between the two sides has lasted for endless ages!
******
Innate Primordial Camp Territory.
The black-clad, black-haired Luo Feng stood in the void, looking at a Source World ahead. In his vision, the past history and past sufferings of this Source World unfolded one by one.
He saw that this Source World once flourished, with myriad forms of life and the Myriad Clans vying for supremacy.
Just like his hometown Source World, there were also human-like clans and other races, all creatures within this Source World. Their cultivation systems influenced and borrowed from each other, exploring as they progressed forward.
Among them, Primal Chaos Realm had also been born!
But afterward, a World-level Primordial came…
“Everyone died, all the creatures of a Source World perished.”
Luo Feng looked at the past of this Source World.
After becoming a Lord, Luo Feng had long been able to see beyond the Cultivator Territory, to see numerous Source Worlds beyond the dominion, and to see the hardships those Source Worlds had endured.
Every time, Luo Feng felt both angry and oppressed; reason told him that only greater strength could change the situation. In the past, he was unwilling to watch for too long.
Because it was indeed too tragic.
Both the countless creatures inside the Source World and the Source World itself were mere food.
The combined strength of the eight Lords was still insufficient to change it all. So, he couldn’t bear to keep watching.
But now…
Luo Feng continued to watch.
He even watched the histories of these Source Worlds, carefully observing every bit of suffering.
As he watched, scenes of tragic and oppressive moments filled Luo Feng’s heart, and his murderous intent within kept rising, the flames of his anger burning ever hotter! Luo Feng seemed to be forging a weapon, and this continuously accumulated murderous intent and anger were refining his ’heart’.
“My Heart of Destruction is still not strong enough!”
During his first contact with the Mountain of Destruction in the Hidden Space-Time of the Abyss of Destruction, he was struck by endless murderous and hateful intent, and memories surged into his mind as if he were personally experiencing them.
That incident triggered Luo Feng, intensifying his murderous intent.
He seemed to transform into each sufferer, going through countless despair, filled with endless hatred towards those Innate Primordial Lives!
At that moment, Luo Feng realized…
He had found a path to ’forge his Heart of Destruction’!
His Heart of Destruction was indeed not strong enough!
After all, he became the highest-level life form in the Endless Primordial Space, an Immortal Lord! He had also turned the tide of the Cultivator Camp’s wars, protecting the 3600 World Group. Most crucially… his hometown Source World, with all those beloved friends and family that he cared deeply about, could all be revived from the rivers of time.
Everything about his hometown Source World was what he cared about the most.
When they could all come back to life, Luo Feng was exuberantly happy, and with his heart filled with joy, his Heart of Destruction naturally became less intense.
As for the countless Source Worlds beyond the Cultivator Territory… in the end, he was just a bystander! Though a bystander might be angry, it falls far from forging a ’Heart of Destruction’.
Only upon touching that Mountain of Destruction did he truly feel…
That it was a personal experience, which truly stimulated Luo Feng.
“The Origin Continent Origin World is the most important to me, the place where I guard with my life.”
“But outside the Origin Continent Origin World… in what way are other Source Worlds different? They are all the same Source World creatures.”
“Because my strength is not enough, I cannot protect the innumerable Source Worlds beyond the territory.”
“In the future, if my strength is not enough, even the 3600 World Group could be flattened!” Luo Feng understood this well, because not long ago, had he not broken through, the Innate Primordial Camp might have achieved their goal, flattening the entire Cultivator Territory.
“If the 3600 World Group is flattened, could my hometown Source World survive alone?”
The Endless Primordial Space has never been a safe haven.
The Cultivator Camp is also in competition with other camps, and those Ancestral Beings are more numerous and can give rise to some extremely powerful existences as well.
All parties are competing!
If we do not advance, we retreat!
If satisfied with the current strength, someday in the future, should a potent individual master the highest-level Mysterious Land and flatten the Cultivator Territory with invincible power, annihilating the hometown Source Worlds of all Lords?
Even if I am immortal, what then? If my hometown Source World is destroyed and all beloved friends and family are gone? For me, it would be endless torment.
“With blood and fire, eliminate all enemies.”
“With endless destruction, protect the lives of the clan.”
Luo Feng’s 3916 avatars walk through different territories, observing Source Worlds one by one, watching all that happened in the past.
Those scenes of suffering told Luo Feng.
If the Heart of Destruction is not heavy enough, I cannot protect what I wish to protect!
Numerous Source Worlds had experienced suffering in the long years past, devoutly watched by Luo Feng, as every bit of suffering was etched deeply into his mind. These sufferings seemed like pieces of firewood, fueling the ’fire’ in Luo Feng’s heart to burn ever brighter, and this ’fire’ was refining Luo Feng’s Heart of Destruction.
And in the Hidden Space-Time of the ’Destruction Mountain’, Luo Feng also sent down an avatar.
The avatar sat cross-legged next to the Destruction Mountain, occasionally reaching out to touch it, feeling that endless murderous and hateful intent, as if becoming a creature that died with endless grievances, experiencing everything they had once gone through.
