Chapter 354
Five long years have passed, and the highest place of inheritance is the "Hongmeng
One of the ten heavens of the Five Elements Secret Realm, Ancient Glass Heaven.
Inside the city lord's mansion, the teleportation array's light dimmed, and Luo Feng's figure appeared.
His gaze swept across the surroundings, and he immediately sensed an aura of law that was completely different from that of Geng Jintian.
The sky here is azure green, the air is filled with the fragrance of grass and trees, and as far as the eye can see, the mountains and rivers are lush and verdant, with a rich sense of life and the fundamental laws of wood omnipresent.
Without delay, Luo Feng walked straight out of the city lord's mansion and found a deserted small building to stay in.
"The Law of Wood..."
He sat cross-legged on the rooftop, not in a hurry to comprehend the laws, but instead separated a wisp of his consciousness to enter the Nine Towers Realm.
Nine Towers Realm.
Luo Feng, dressed in black, sat cross-legged in the martial arts hall, with a thick book beside him.
The book cover is dark blue, imprinted with intricate patterns that form four ancient characters—"The Laws of Wood."
Luo Feng turned to the first page and immediately became engrossed in it.
This manual was created by the great Lord of the Primordial Chaos. It systematically expounds the complete laws of wood and is also divided into four parts: beginner, intermediate, advanced, and perfect.
The introductory and advanced sections mainly analyze the seventy-two essential mysteries of the Law of Wood.
The Great Completion Chapter then recounts the three mysteries of the Laws of Wood.
The "Complete Chapter" integrates all the content and elaborates on the complete Laws of Wood.
Luo Feng carefully read the manual while simultaneously diverting his attention to his inner world.
The Enlightenment Tree clone swayed gently, showing a special affinity for the aura of the Law of Wood.
The golden-horned behemoth lay prostrate on the vast land, layers of mysterious patterns emerging on the sharp horn on its forehead.
With the support of Gu Litian's ten-thousand-fold environment, the million-fold increase in perception efficiency has been activated once again!
Luo Feng closed his eyes slightly, as if he had transformed into a seed, sensing the operation of the Law of Wood in the universe.
Time slipped away quietly as I lost myself in contemplation.
One year, three years, five years...
In the sixth year, Luo Feng comprehended all 72 essential principles of the Wood Law;
……
The tenth year.
On the rooftop of the small building.
Luo Feng closed his eyes slightly, and a soft blue ripple spread around his body.
Immediately afterwards, countless cyan light spots emerged from the void, converging into a vast cyan river of light.
Finally, a blue secret pattern containing endless vitality condensed above Luo Feng's head and slowly imprinted itself into his brow.
That year, Luo Feng gained recognition from the fundamental law of wood.
……
The fifteenth year.
Luo Feng, who had been sitting on the rooftop for over a decade, opened his eyes, his gaze seemingly shimmering with azure waves.
"I have fully comprehended the laws of wood."
Luo Feng muttered to himself, a slight smile appearing on his lips.
Without the slightest hesitation, he got up and hurried towards the city lord's mansion.
Next destination: Ruoshuitian.
……
Weak Water Sky.
The Five Elements Secret Realm is a sacred place for cultivating the Law of Water.
This time, it took Luo Feng a full nineteen years to fully comprehend the complete Laws of Water.
……
Sixteen years later.
In Hoututian, Luo Feng perfected his understanding of the laws of earth.
······
One of the Ten Heavens, the Heaven of Fire.
When the light from the teleportation array completely faded, Luo Feng stepped out.
"This is the Heaven of Blazing Fire?"
Luo Feng took a deep breath of the scorching air, a hint of emotion flashing across his face.
Unbeknownst to him, eighty-three years had passed since he began his cultivation in the Five Elements Secret Realm.
For the first thirty years, he comprehended the laws of space in the Great Void Heaven, and his understanding of these laws was comparable to that of a Marquis or an Immortal.
Over the next fifty-three years, he successively comprehended the four lower-level laws of metal, wood, water, and earth.
Four of the five subordinate laws of the spatial school have been obtained.
Luo Feng stepped out of the teleportation array and headed into Li Huo City.
Just like in the previous cities, he found a deserted building and sat cross-legged on the rooftop.
"The Five Elements Secret Realm has a hundred-year cultivation period, with seventeen years remaining."
As Luo Feng studied the "Law of Fire," he thought to himself, "Time isn't plentiful, but... it's enough."
However, just as Luo Feng was immersed in comprehending the Law of Fire.
Deep within the very center of Fire City, in the crimson crystal palace that seems to be made of eternally burning flames.
On the throne, a tall man wearing crimson armor and with two red dragon horns on his forehead slowly opened his eyes.
In his eyes, it seemed as if stars were rising and falling, and two eternal flames were burning.
He is none other than the great being who guards the Li Huo Heaven, a top cosmic overlord ranked nineteenth on the Hongmeng Daoist Temple Heavenly Ranking—the Lord of Li Huo City.
"Hmm~"
"That little guy Luo Feng has finally arrived."
The gaze of the Heavenly Venerable of Fire seemed to pierce through many barriers, landing on the black-haired youth sitting cross-legged on the rooftop.
"Let me see what this kid has been up to all these years."
Li Huo Tianzun thought to himself.
As a high-ranking member of the Hongmeng Dojo, he easily obtained Luo Feng's recent information.
For the past fifty-three years, Luo Feng has not ventured into the Fire Space.
He didn't even stay in the Great Void Heaven; instead, he went to comprehend the four lower-level laws of metal, wood, water, and earth.
"Interesting, really interesting."
The Lord of Li Huo City couldn't help but laugh.
Geng Jintian, three years to comprehend the laws of metal.
Gu Litian comprehended the Laws of Wood in fifteen years;
Ruoshui Tian, nineteen years to comprehend the laws of water;
Hou Tu Tian spent sixteen years comprehending the laws of earth;
……
The speed at which he comprehended the laws was simply heaven-defying.
Even with the Five Elements Secret Realm's ten-thousand-fold increase in comprehension efficiency, this speed is still incredible.
However, what is truly astonishing is not only Luo Feng's speed of comprehension, but also his extremely high talent for almost every law.
Whether it's the law of space, the law of metal, or some other lower-level law...
Luo Feng's cultivation speed is nothing short of terrifying.
"It seems I was right after all."
"Luo Feng is a genius born for my Five Elements School!"
"I just wonder how many years it will take him to fully comprehend the Law of Fire?"
The Lord of Li Huo City was filled with emotion.
For powerful beings in the universe, comprehending a law, even a lower-level one, takes millions of years. When did it become measured in "years"?
This kind of situation only occurs in a monstrous talent like Luo Feng.
"Besides Luo Feng, there seem to be a few other promising talents in this year's Hongmeng Competition."
The Lord of Li Huo City nodded slightly, and took the opportunity to check on the situation of the geniuses in this year's Hongmeng Grand Competition.
Luo Feng's record on the eighteenth level of the Torch Space still ranks first among this group of geniuses.
Second on the list is Death God Berlan, who broke through the seventeenth level of the Flame Space twelve years ago.
Subsequently, Rong Jun, Qian Shui, Wu Ka and dozens of other geniuses have already passed the fifteenth level of the Firework Space;
After that, the vast majority of geniuses remain at the thirteenth or fourteenth level.
It's fair to say that during the years Luo Feng didn't venture into the Flame Space, the other geniuses' drive was indeed incredibly rapid. Especially Death God Berlan, who was only one level behind Luo Feng.
But thinking about it, it's quite normal.
For the past fifty-three years, Luo Feng has been distracted by comprehending the four lower-level laws of metal, wood, water, and earth, while other geniuses have been wholeheartedly comprehending the laws of space.
With the Five Elements Secret Realm's comprehension efficiency increased tenfold, fifty-three years is equivalent to five hundred and thirty thousand years of cultivation.
It should be understood that those who can enter the core layer of the Hongmeng Dojo are already unparalleled geniuses... It is quite normal for them to reach a level of understanding of the laws comparable to immortals.
At this time, there are still seventeen years left before the one hundred-year cultivation period in the Five Elements Secret Realm. After seventeen years, most of these geniuses will be able to pass the eighteenth level, and Bolan will be able to reach the nineteenth level.
"Ah."
"This one named Bolan is not bad either. At least he has a glimmer of hope of becoming the master of the universe. It's just that he is not very suitable for our Five Elements School."
"He does... have a bit of a talent for the time-travel genre."
The Lord of Li Huo thought to himself calmly.
There are many schools of thought within the Hongmeng Daoist Temple, after all, there are many possibilities for the arrangement and combination of the ten fundamental laws.
The Five Elements school is just one of them.
The Spacetime School first integrates the two most profound higher laws of time and space, and then gradually integrates other lower laws.
However, within the Hongmeng Dojo, the number of powerful individuals who follow the spacetime cultivation path is the smallest.
Time flew by again.
One year, two years, three years...
On the rooftop of the small building.
Suddenly, Luo Feng's seated figure was filled with the aura of the profound laws of fire.
Immediately afterwards, a flame mark quietly appeared on his forehead.
"Ok?"
"To have gained the recognition of the Fire Law so quickly?"
Inside the City Lord's Mansion, the flames in Li Huo Tianzun's eyes flickered slightly, revealing a hint of surprise: "This speed of comprehension... perhaps within ten years, he will be able to comprehend the complete Law of Fire."
······
at the same time.
Virtual world, Hongmeng space.
Wisps of primordial purple energy, like light gauze and thin mist, flow and change eternally, constructing the most primordial chaotic landscape.
A majestic figure silently materialized and emerged within this primordial purple aura.
He wore ancient, blood-red armor, with two dark red dragon horns on his forehead, and his body was surrounded by flames that seemed capable of burning everything.
He was none other than the Celestial Venerable of Li Huo.
The Heavenly Venerable of Li Huo turned his gaze forward.
There floats a towering building that defies description, exuding an ancient, vast, and supreme Taoist aura.
The outlines of the high-rise buildings were faintly visible in the primordial purple mist, making it difficult to see their full appearance.
A deep sense of awe flashed in Li Huo Tianzun's eyes.
Even though he had reached the pinnacle of the Universe Venerables and his combat power was no weaker than that of the Lord of the Universe, he still felt as insignificant as dust when facing this Inheritance Tower, which was personally created by the great Hongmeng Dao Lord.
This tall building... is the highest place of inheritance of the Hongmeng Daoist Temple, the Hongmeng Great Dao Tower!
In the Hongmeng Dojo, only those whose strength reaches the level of a universe master are qualified to set foot here.
Li Huo Tianzun entered the Hongmeng Dao Building and did not linger on the first floor.
The second floor is an incredibly spacious silver hall.
The main hall was boundless, as vast as the universe.
"The Celestial Venerable of the Blazing Fire".
What secret technique do you wish to exchange for?
A magnificent voice seemed to come from the ends of the universe.
With a solemn expression, the Celestial Venerable of Li Huo bowed slightly towards the depths of the empty hall.
"I wish to exchange for the 'Yan Gu Refining Technique'."
The voice of the Celestial Venerable of Li Huo echoed clearly in the silent hall.
"The Ancient Flame Refining Technique is an Eternal True God-level secret technique with four levels. It requires one million Treasure Points to exchange for the entire manual."
The majestic voice spoke softly.
"One million Treasure Points?"
Li Huo Tianzun's lips twitched. Even if he were sold, he wouldn't be worth this much money.
"I wish to exchange for the first chapter of 'Yan Gu Refining Technique'."
Li Huo Tianzun continued.
"The first chapter of 'Yan Gu Refining Techniques' requires 3000 Treasure Points. Venerable Li Huo, your current Treasure Point balance is 3125. Confirm redemption?"
The majestic voice rang out once more.
"exchange."
Li Huo Tianzun gritted his teeth and finally confirmed the exchange.
3000 Treasure Points!
This is definitely a large sum of money for him, enough to exchange for a pretty good top-tier treasure in the dojo's treasury.
The Celestial Venerable of Blazing Fire currently possesses only one supreme treasure, which was bestowed upon him by the Lord of Primordial Chaos back then!
These 3125 treasure points are the result of his countless years of accumulation.
"Having one more top-tier treasure will at most increase my strength by 20% to 30%."
"However, the first level of the 'Yan Gu Refining Technique' is a refining technique capable of forging supreme treasures!"
"The second level can even be used to refine the most powerful treasures!"
Li Huo Tianzun was well aware of this.
Once I obtain the "Yan Gu Refining Technique," I will likely have the ability to refine ultimate treasures in the future!
Looking across the entire primordial universe, there are only a handful of weapon-refining masters capable of crafting ultimate treasures.
At that time, will I still be worried about these three thousand treasure points?
"Confirming redemption... 3000 Treasure Points deducted."
"The first level of the 'Yan Gu Refining Technique' is hereby awarded."
The majestic voice faded away.
hum~
In the center of the silver hall, a point of golden light appeared out of thin air and instantly transformed into an ancient scroll that was neither gold nor jade, and whose material was unknown.
"Lord Li Huo, please read the secret manual here. You may leave only after you have memorized it all."
"Note that once you leave this hall, you may not read the manual again."
The majestic voice spoke softly.
Li Huo Tianzun nodded.
He knew the rules of the Hongmeng Avenue Building!
All the secret techniques collected here would be shielded from the primordial universe if placed outside; they can only be displayed within this primordial space.
Thinking of this, even the Heavenly Venerable Li Huo had to admire the Lord of Hongmeng Dao, who could even contend with the primordial universe.
"The Yan Gu Refining Technique... truly profound and complex. Three thousand Treasure Points, well worth it!"
Li Huo Tianzun sat cross-legged on the ground, reading carefully, his heart filled with emotion.
Those in power outside only know that he, the Heavenly Venerable of Li Huo, has three incarnations.
The first clone, the main battle clone, conquers the cosmic sea and various secret realms of the universe;
The second clone is stationed in "Li Huo Tian", one of the ten heavens of the Five Elements Secret Realm;
However, no one knew that his third incarnation was a massive volcanic mountain range—"Liyuan Volcano".
The Liyuan Volcano is a unique life form found nowhere else in the universe, with a divine body that is hundreds of millions of kilometers tall.
Because his divine body was too enormous to move easily, this third avatar of the Heavenly Venerable of Blazing Fire had never appeared in the universe; he only provided divine power to the other two avatars.
However, besides its enormous size, Liyuan Volcano has another unique characteristic: it possesses an exceptionally high innate talent for weapon crafting.
Very few people outside the industry know about this.
All the outside world knows is that, in addition to being a super strong person, Li Huo Tianzun is also a master craftsman who can forge high-grade treasures.
"Woo~"
"After observing the ancient weapon-forging techniques of Yan Gu, I discovered that the weapon-forging methods of the primordial universe had completely gone astray."
"If we follow this line of thinking, I'm afraid we'll never be able to forge the most powerful treasure in our entire lives."
The Celestial Venerable of Blazing Fire devoured the contents of the manual, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light. (End of Chapter)
