Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

"Musician Su Ya takes her leave." The black-clad Musician Su Ya respectfully withdrew.

Luo Feng paid no attention to Morosa, nor to the green-robed attendant on the side, and drank alone.

In the huge hall, for a moment neither Morosa nor the green-robed attendant dared to make a sound.

Luo Feng silently drank, his eyes deep.

His will was currently enduring the honing of the "Seven Emotions of Heart Refining Technique."

Just like steel needs to be forged and struck repeatedly, a creature needs to go through setback after setback to gradually grow.

The same goes for the will.

It needs to be tempered over and over again! The stronger the tempering, if the will does not collapse, it will become even stronger!

The "Seven Emotions of Heart Refining Technique" is special as it tempers one\'s own will with various emotions. As the secret technique is activated, intense feelings surge and continuously assault the will.

"I have cultivated for too long, my emotions have become deeper and more restrained, who would have thought that in this Dream Flower Tower, I would return to the time when my emotions were most intense," reminisced Luo Feng.

"Within the \'Lie Yuan Technique\', there are various secret techniques for cultivating will, I had long chosen the \'Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique\' to temper my will. I have already practiced it numerous times during my retreat of over an epoch. This secret technique has a high upper limit, while the \'Seven Emotions of Heart Refining Technique\' ultimately has its limits.

After all, I cannot always be in the midst of emotional turmoil, otherwise, I would go mad," thought Luo Feng.

The "Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique" is about using the mood of utter destruction of all things to grind away at the will!

What Luo Feng needed to do was to resist with his will!

Because Morosa inherently mastered the \'destruction of the origin\', Luo Feng could directly observe and even attempt to condense the mood of great destruction, making this secret technique highly effective.

Destruction of the origin is on the same level of existence as the \'Life Origin\' of the Primordial Cosmos! Enslaving a Sector Beast to directly observe \'destruction of the origin\', Luo Feng naturally chose the "Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique" as his main practice.

"However, those memories are indeed beautiful," Luo Feng\'s emotions gradually stabilized.

"Is this Musician Su Ya the one who most strongly affects emotions with illusion techniques from your Dream Flower Tower?" suddenly asked Luo Feng.

Upon hearing the question, the green-robed attendant promptly replied, "Our Dream Flower Tower\'s strongest illusion techniques naturally come from the Tower Master, but she only occasionally hosts the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and only invited guests can participate. Among the other musicians, there are more than ten who are close to Musician Su Ya\'s level."

Luo Feng nodded, "Let them come and play their music."

"Very well," said the green-robed attendant, feeling a bit puzzled inside. Why would an eternal true god care so much about illusion techniques from a true god of void space level?

In Huyang City, there were some eternal true gods who liked the Dream Flower Tower Master, and there were even a very few who were madly infatuated with her. But... it was unheard of for an eternal true god to particularly fancy illusionists of the true god of void space level.

But since Luo Feng had commanded it, the green-robed attendant naturally went to arrange it immediately.

...

While Luo Feng was practicing the "Seven Emotions of Heart Refining Technique", he continuously experienced the illusion techniques of these musicians. Although they all came from the same tradition, each had their own strengths. Some even created an illusory world, making Luo Feng a part of the story within that world.

"Supreme one, are you satisfied with these musicians?" the green-robed attendant inquired, "Our Dream Flower Tower has several other interesting novelties. The musicians\' illusion techniques are just one of them."

"Today, I have had my fill! I shall return another time," said Luo Feng as he got up. He glanced at a petite woman covered with leaves, who appeared a bit shy. Named \'Araya,\' she was a plant creature from the Land of Origin. Her music had a special charm that stirred Luo Feng\'s emotions the most intensely, far surpassing the other musicians, "This Musician Araya is very good."

Saying this, Luo Feng casually threw a grain of sand that seemed ordinary but instantly drew the gaze of many creatures present.

"Cosmic Sand?" the green-robed attendant exclaimed, swiftly adding, "Supreme one, all expenses tonight at the Dream Flower Tower are on us, you need not..."

"I dislike taking unfair advantage," Luo Feng stated as he walked out.

Morosa then swept up the nearby wine jug with a wave of his hand and quickly followed Luo Feng, not without glancing at the piece of Cosmic Sand left on the table, "Since my master has given it, you\'d better accept it quickly."

The green-robed attendant then picked up the Cosmic Sand, admiring the nascent universe contained within it and marveled.

The night\'s expenses were actually just over two thousand Primal Chaos Crystals, but Luo Feng\'s piece of Cosmic Sand was worth far more.

"Araya, the Supreme one is very pleased with your music, a reward of 10 Primal Chaos Crystals," said the green-robed attendant.

"Thank you, Steward Yulu," the plant creature \'Araya\' exclaimed joyfully, bowing in gratitude. The other musicians could only look on with envy; they only received the basic service fee, while Araya obviously won the favor of that eternal true god the most.

At the deepest part of the Dream Flower Tower\'s grand formation lay an unassuming little tower.

A figure in a loose robe stood there, overlooking almost the entire Dream Flower Tower, taking everything in view.

"Master," said the green-robed attendant respectfully, "That eternal true god has left, and he also paid with a Cosmic Sand."

The Dream Flower Tower Master nodded slightly, "Tell me all his information in detail."

"Yes," the green-robed attendant respectfully began, "His servant had visited us multiple times before, but this unfamiliar eternal true god was here for the first time. He seemed to only care about the music and illusion techniques at the Dream Flower Tower."

"Those musicians are all true gods of void space, so theoretically, their impact on an eternal true god should be very minimal," said the green-robed attendant. "But he seems to really enjoy it."

"Even to the point of shedding tears upon listening, it is indeed quite inconceivable," the green-robed attendant, who was also confused, added. "And from what he said, he will come again."

With a light smile, the Dream Flower Tower Master said, "Every creature is unique, this unfamiliar eternal true god may just be more susceptible to emotional fluctuations."

"If those musicians\' illusion techniques have such an influence on him, if the Tower Master were to take action personally..." the green-robed attendant whispered, "he might develop an ardent obsession with the Tower Master."

The Dream Flower Tower Master looked out the window.

Over the eons, only two eternal true gods had developed an infatuation with her. After all, eternal true gods have extraordinary wills; even if they get immersed temporarily, they would revert to their senses once the illusion was over. Very few would truly become enamored with her.

"When he comes next time, tell him that I will hold a \'Hundred Flowers Banquet\' in ten days and invite him to attend," the Dream Flower Tower Master said softly.

"Yes, Tower Master," the green-robed attendant replied respectfully.

...

A day in the Land of Origin is very long, and Luo Feng, over the following days, aside from cultivation, was taken by Morosa to various places for different types of consumption, broadening his horizons.

When Luo Feng returned to the Dream Flower Tower, he also received an invitation.

"Supreme," the green-robed attendant greeted him enthusiastically, "my Tower Master will host the Hundred Flowers Banquet in ten days. Many eternal true gods from Huyang City will be invited, and the Tower Master has also invited the Supreme to attend."

"The Dream Flower Tower Master\'s Hundred Flowers Banquet?" Luo Feng was surprised. "In ten days?"

"Yes, in ten days! It might be several eras before the Tower Master holds the next Hundred Flowers Banquet," said the green-robed attendant.

Luo Feng smiled, "Since I\'m invited, I would be happy to attend and look forward to witnessing the Tower Master\'s mastery over illusion techniques."

"May I ask for the Supreme\'s honored name? The Hundred Flowers Banquet requires some preparations in advance," the green-robed attendant said.

"Luo He," Luo Feng replied.

The green-robed attendant made a point to remember this name firmly.

This Hundred Flowers Banquet was actually for this very eternal true god \'Luo He\' before him. If \'Luo He\' became fervently enamored with the Dream Flower Tower Master, then her influence in Huyang City would naturally increase.

On the outskirts of the Primordial Cosmos.

The Mountain sitting guest was very reclusive, hardly interacting with other true gods. At the moment, he left his own small cosmos and headed toward Luo Feng\'s.

"It\'s only been over ten thousand eras since I left the Land of Origin, but time flows tens of thousands of times faster in the regions of the Primordial Cosmos. I have waited here for far too long!"

"Throughout this elongated time, I\'ve remained but a true god! And made no progress in strength," lamented the Mountain sitting guest, his ancient face tinged with desolation, as he endured the torment of time\'s passage.

Thinking this, the Mountain sitting guest continued his journey towards Luo Feng\'s small cosmos, and finally, he could vaguely see that vast cosmos.

"Hmm?" The Mountain sitting guest paused, his eyes widening as he carefully observed Luo Feng\'s small cosmos.

"The rate of primal chaotic current absorption has slowed down significantly," said the Mountain sitting guest, somewhat excited. "It looks like Luo Feng\'s godly body has finally grown to its limit."

"His small cosmos, spanning hundreds of billions of light-years in diameter, absorbs vast amounts of primal chaotic energy every moment! Having continued for so long... the accumulated total should put his godly body between 15 and 20 billion kilometers tall in the Land of Origin," calculated the Mountain sitting guest. As the former God King Jin, he was very accurate in estimating energy scales.

"Good, good, good."

Excitement filled the Mountain sitting guest\'s eyes. "With such a massive godly body, far surpassing his peers, once he becomes a Godly King, even if ten or eight Godly Kings joined forces, they couldn\'t compare to him in terms of Divine Power advantage."

"With Luo Feng, there\'s hope for my revenge," thought the Mountain sitting guest, harboring endless hatred. Everything he valued most had been destroyed by the Three Sovereigns of Shi Kingdom.

His sister-in-law and wife, his friends and brothers, his many fellow disciples...

All were gone.

From that day on, the Mountain sitting guest had only one thought – revenge!

For this, he spared no expense!

Everything he did in the Primordial Cosmos was for this single goal. Fortunately, he had cultivated Luo Feng!

"My strength is much weaker than that of Tian Kun, the leader of the Three Sovereigns of Shi Kingdom. I only managed to escape death by relying on a Secret Treasure. A direct confrontation is impossible for me," the Mountain sitting guest was well aware. "Only with Luo Feng\'s growth do I hold hope for vengeance."

"Just with the enormous advantage of his godly body, Luo Feng should be able to overwhelm the three sovereigns of Shi Kingdom!" the Mountain sitting guest muttered to himself.

After Luo Feng set off on his reincarnation journey to the Land of Origin, the Mountain sitting guest continued to stay in the Primordial Cosmos Region, intending to understand the divine power capacity of Luo Feng\'s godly body.

Now, the Mountain sitting guest was reassured.

"It\'s time to prepare for my reincarnation. I\'ve been away from the Land of Origin far too long," the Mountain sitting guest immediately headed toward his own small cosmos and began his final preparations before his reincarnation attempt.
