Chapter 166: The Complete Divine General Inheritance — Jiufeng Zifeng Zunzhe's Good Fortune

In the towering divine temple above Ling Feng Continent, King King Fengying Wang was quietly comprehending the Law of Time, attempting to fuse the three branches of the Origin Law of Time—which he had long since fully comprehended—into one, transforming it into the true Origin Law of Time.

But unfortunately, over the long years past, King King Fengying Wang had already tried countless times, yet had never been able to fully comprehend the complete Origin Law of Time.

But just at this moment…

Boom!

King King Fengying Wang, who had been in quiet cultivation, suddenly sensed a terrifying aura of an Origin Law descending.

"This aura?"

Sensing this strange aura, King King Fengying Wang was briefly stunned: "Could someone have broken through to the Venerable Realm?"

Although he had long heard people say that accepting a Divine General inheritance gave one a chance to break through to the Venerable Realm, King King Fengying Wang had been stationed on this Ling Feng Continent for a very long time, yet had never personally witnessed it.

"If only the one breaking through were my junior brother Jiufeng!"

King King Fengying Wang's gaze seemed to pierce through endless space, then he looked with great envy toward the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance site: "Hahaha… I really do let my imagination run wild!"

Although such a thought flashed through his mind, King King Fengying Wang knew this was fundamentally impossible!

After all, his relationship with his junior brother Jiufeng Wang was extremely good, so he also understood Jiufeng Wang's strength very well.

Although Jiufeng Wang had now passed the 20th level of the Tongtian Bridge, he had only mastered one of the three branches of the Origin Law of Time—'Time Pause'—and had not even comprehended 'Time Acceleration' or 'Time Deceleration,' let alone fully comprehending the complete Origin Law of Time.

Thinking of this, King King Fengying Wang could not help but speculate inwardly: "I wonder if the one who broke through this time is Liekong Wang, Xueying Wang, or that alien-race powerhouse Feihua Wang?"

As the guardian of the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance site, King King Fengying Wang naturally had an extremely thorough understanding of the information regarding the person who had come this time to accept the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance.

And in his view, only Liekong Wang and those other two, who had fully mastered the three branches of the Origin Law of Time, had the chance to break through.

Among these three, Liekong Wang was a super genius of the Giant Axe Battle Arena faction, and in just over thirty million years of cultivation, he had already mastered the three branches of the Origin Law of Time;

Xueying Wang, on the other hand, was a powerhouse of the human race within the Hong Alliance City, but did not belong to any of the five major factions of the human race;

As for Feihua Wang, he was an alien-race Hei Fengwang within the Hong Alliance.

Under normal circumstances, Hei Fengwang under the five major factions would naturally find it easier to accept a Divine General inheritance, so aside from geniuses like Liekong Wang who cultivated extremely fast, it was generally rare for anyone to comprehend a higher Origin Law to its limit before accepting a Divine General inheritance;

As for Hei Fengwang not under the five major factions, and alien-race Hei Fengwang within the Hong Alliance, accepting a Divine General inheritance was far more difficult!

Besides having to pay far more wealth than the Hei Fengwang of the five major factions, they also needed to make sufficiently great contributions to the human race, so they often needed to prepare for endless years before having a chance to accept a Divine General inheritance!

"I should still report this matter to the upper echelons of my Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, and the upper echelons of the Hong Alliance!"

Thinking of this, King King Fengying Wang quickly sent out the message, then swiftly set off for the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance site located at the center where the Origin aura had descended.

Someone had broken through to the Venerable Realm while accepting the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance, so naturally he had to go over and offer congratulations!

……

And in an inheritance divine temple within the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance site.

On the 2400th step, Mo Long Wang of the Virtual Universe Company faction had just finished accepting this level's Ling Feng Divine General inheritance.

"This Ling Feng Divine General inheritance is truly too miraculous!"

Mo Long Wang looked at the Initiator Reward Temple not far ahead: "I've only cultivated for a little over two years, and my strength has already tripled!"

"According to what my teacher said before, my cultivation speed should count as upper-middle among all the Hei Fengwang accepting the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance this batch—I should reach the 3333rd level within twenty years and obtain the Initiator Reward!"

"After obtaining the Initiator Reward, I should be able to go further; even if I can't reach the 6666th level, I should still be able to raise my soul amplitude to over fifty times!"

One should know that, unlike Lu Qingshan, Mo Long Wang had already applied for this Ling Feng Divine General inheritance slot over ten million years ago.

So over this past period, besides cultivating and adventuring through the cosmos, Mo Long Wang had also gathered a great deal of information about the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance, and even sought guidance from some Hei Fengwang who had accepted the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance.

Precisely because of this, Mo Long Wang's understanding of the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance could be said to be the most thorough among this batch of Hei Fengwang accepting the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance.

Thinking of this, Mo Long Wang was about to step onto the 2401st inheritance step ahead and continue accepting the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance.

But just at this moment…

Rumble rumble rumble!

Above one of the inheritance divine temples, a tri-colored vortex had actually appeared.

Light, thunder and lightning, and the aura of the Origin Law of Wind merged with one another, and soon drew forth an even more noble and majestic aura of the 'Origin Law of Time'!

And at the core of that tri-colored vortex was a stretch of void, as if an invisible mysterious passage connected to the incomprehensibly mysterious Origin Land of the cosmos.

"The Origin Law of Time has descended?"

"Who is this? They actually comprehended the complete Origin Law of Time and became a Venerable?"

Gazing from afar at the tri-colored vortex above a distant temple, Mo Long Wang could not help but reveal a trace of shock and envy on his face: "I've long heard people say that accepting a Divine General inheritance gives one a chance to break through to the Venerable Realm—I never expected I'd actually encounter it!"

One should know that becoming a Venerable was absolutely the cultivation goal of any Hei Fengwang.

But crossing into the Venerable Realm was truly too difficult; under normal circumstances, even with the vast territories of the human race, it would take a very long time before another Venerable could appear!

"It's a pity my Law comprehension is still far from enough!"

Mo Long Wang sighed inwardly: "If I had mastered the three branches of the Origin Law of Time now, I might be able to seize this chance to break through to the Venerable Realm!"

But unfortunately, he had only passed the 19th level of the Tongtian Bridge so far, still some distance from comprehending one of the three branches of the Origin Law of Time—'Time Pause'—let alone fully comprehending all three branches of the Origin Law of Time.

And while Mo Long Wang was sighing inwardly, the Hei Fengwang accepting inheritances in the other inheritance divine temples naturally also discovered that someone at the inheritance site had broken through to the Venerable Realm.

"The Origin Law of Time has descended!"

"Who is this? Such luck—breaking through while accepting the inheritance!"

"Too incredible! So what my teacher told me was really true!"

Any Hei Fengwang, without exception, dreamed of breaking through to the Venerable Realm!

And within the human race, there was an enormous difference in status between Venerables and Hei Fengwang!

For example, on Lei Ting Island of the Virtual Universe Company, even an invincible Hei Fengwang could only reside at the foot of the mountain, while Venerables could reside halfway up the mountain, or even join the Highest Council to contribute to the entire human race!

If these Hei Fengwang were not at the critical moment of accepting the Ling Feng Divine General inheritance, they probably could not have restrained themselves from going out to congratulate the Venerable who had just broken through.

"Enough, I'll wait until I've finished receiving the inheritance before going to congratulate that Venerable!"

"Accepting the inheritance is more important!"

After their shock, the Hei Fengwang accepting inheritances in the other inheritance divine temples quickly calmed down again.

After all, going to congratulate others on their breakthroughs counts only as social exchange, while continuing to accept the Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance can directly relate to their own strength improvement; naturally, they would not be foolish enough to leave the Inheritance Temple now!

On the other side, Lu Qingshan, who was currently on the 8888th step of the Inheritance Staircase accepting the Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance, naturally also perceived the scene of the Time Origin Law descending in the outside world.

It must be said that although he had no particular interest in accepting the complete Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance, he was quite envious of this Hei Fengwang, an Undying King who had managed to break through to the Venerable Realm.

"Accepting this Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance indeed provides some help for breakthroughs!"

Lu Qingshan couldn't help but think silently in his heart: "It's a pity my comprehension of the Time Origin Law is still too low; otherwise, I might have been able to grasp the complete Time Origin Law by taking this opportunity!"

Moments later, all fluctuations completely dissipated.

Inside a temple on the 10000th step of the Inheritance Staircase within one of the Inheritance Temples.

Jiu Feng, who had already broken through to become a Time Venerable, showed no reaction, instead continuing to immerse himself in the endless information flooding into his mind.

Only after successfully completely absorbing the multitude of information that had flooded into his mind did Venerable Jiu Feng slowly open his eyes.

"Hmm?" A trace of confusion appeared in Venerable Jiu Feng's eyes, followed immediately by shock.

"This kind of power? So I have unknowingly stepped into the Venerable Realm!"

Feeling the numerous changes within his body, Venerable Jiu Feng couldn't help but reveal an expression of awe on his face: "This is the complete Time Origin Law; I never expected to grasp it so easily!"

It must be known that before accepting the Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance, Venerable Jiu Feng's goal was merely to catch up with his senior brother, King King Fengying Wang.

And even if he wanted to become an invincible King like King King Fengying Wang, he still had a very long road to walk.

Besides improving the Soul Amplification Secret Art, he also needed to improve his Life Gene Level, create even more powerful Secret Arts, and find ways to obtain heavy treasures that matched himself...

Only by fulfilling all these conditions could he become an invincible King like King King Fengying Wang, one capable of preserving his life against a Venerable!

But now, having spent just over two years accepting the Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance, his strength had undergone an incomparably astonishing change!

"This kind of power..."

Feeling his basic strength, Venerable Jiu Feng couldn't help but reveal an expression of shock on his face: "Now, even without activating the Amplification Secret Art, my basic strength alone has probably reached a billion times the power of a Domain Master!"

"According to what my teacher said, the basic strength of an ordinary Venerable is only ten million times the power of a Domain Master; it seems my Life Gene Level was raised to a hundred times that of ordinary life in the universe the moment I broke through; this is simply too incredible!"

It must be known that when Venerable Jiu Feng became an Undying King, he had also fused Blood Luo Crystals under his teacher's guidance, but he ultimately only fused two Blood Luo Crystals; even later, when fusing the more precious Beast God's Blood refined from a hundred Blood Luo Crystals, he only fused five drops, so his Life Gene Level only reached twice that of ordinary life in the universe.

Although the Human Race Treasury and the Hong Alliance possessed other treasures to improve Life Gene Levels, the price was far beyond what he could afford!

But now, simply by choosing to accept the complete Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance, his Life Gene Level was raised to the hundredfold limit allowed by the laws governing the universe!

"Of course, my greatest gain this time is still this heaven-defying Talent Secret Art I just obtained!"

Thinking of this, Venerable Jiu Feng quickly began to recall the Talent Secret Art he received after fusing that strange light spot.

Talent Secret Arts possessed by some powerful races and special life forms in the universe are generally imprinted on the skin or on the Life Core.

However, the Talent Secret Art Venerable Jiu Feng received this time was directly engraved within his soul.

Talent Secret Art, 'Little Ling Feng'!

A soul attack method with extremely immense power; once unleashed, it is enough to rival the peak Secret Arts of a Universe Master!

Even with Venerable Jiu Feng's current realm, when comprehending the power of the Talent Secret Art 'Little Ling Feng', he still found it somewhat mysterious and unfathomable!

"Simply by accepting the complete Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance, my Life Gene Level, Soul Amplification, and even my soul attack method have all improved to such a terrifying extent!"

"No wonder one can possess strength on the level of a Universe Overlord after accepting a complete Divine General's inheritance!"

Feeling the changes in his own strength, Venerable Jiu Feng couldn't help but sigh: "With my current strength, if I unleash this 'Little Ling Feng' while in a state of burning Divine Power, even my teacher might not be able to withstand it!"

"To raise one's strength to such a terrifying realm in such a short time is simply too incredible!"

Venerable Jiu Feng couldn't help but think silently in his heart: "If one could continue to break through even after accepting this complete Divine General's inheritance, even I myself would find it hard to accept!"

At this moment, the middle-aged man's light shadow, who had previously guided Venerable Jiu Feng, appeared before Venerable Jiu Feng once again.

"Senior!" Seeing the middle-aged man's light shadow appear, Venerable Jiu Feng hurriedly greeted him respectfully.

"Candidate Divine General, no need for such courtesy!"

The middle-aged man's light shadow quickly said with a smile: "I have waited here for endless ages just to await your appearance as a Candidate Divine General; now it has finally succeeded!"

"Candidate?" Venerable Jiu Feng couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

He had originally thought that after accepting the complete Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance, he would become the true Ling Feng Divine General; he never expected to be merely a Candidate Divine General!

"That is correct!"

The middle-aged man's light shadow quickly nodded and said: "This Ling Feng Divine General Inheritance Forbidden Land was created by the Zushen Sect, and the Zushen Sect is the spokesperson for the Original Universe's Origin Will and simultaneously the greatest power in the Original Universe; naturally, it is impossible for them to have built only this one Ling Feng Divine General Inheritance Land!"

"Since you, Candidate Divine General, were able to accept the complete Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance, it is naturally possible that life in other Ling Feng Divine General Inheritance Lands will also accept the complete Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance!"

"Every single Ling Feng Divine General Inheritance Land was built by the Zushen Sect at a great cost!"

"And once a life form accepts the complete inheritance, the entire Inheritance Land will directly collapse!"

Under Venerable Jiu Feng's gaze, the middle-aged man's light shadow continued: "And the universe is fair; since you have gained benefits, you naturally must also pay a price! Therefore, every Candidate Divine General who receives the complete inheritance will become an outer member of the Zushen Sect!"

"Of course, after you, Candidate Divine General, accept the complete Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance and become an outer member of the Zushen Sect, you will already be qualified to inherit the true Ling Feng Divine General's honorable position and become the true Ling Feng Divine General!"

"Once you become the true Ling Feng Divine General, your strength will also be able to increase significantly!"

"However, to inherit the Ling Feng Divine General's honorable position, you must travel to the Zushen Sect located within the Zushen Secret Realm, and furthermore, the Ling Feng Divine General's honorable position must be in a vacant state!"

Upon saying this, the middle-aged man's light shadow waved his hand, and a stream of light rushed into Venerable Jiu Feng's mind.

"This is the specific coordinates of the Zushen Sect in the universe!"

The middle-aged man's light shadow continued: "As long as you travel to these coordinates, someone will naturally guide you!"

"So that is how it is!" Venerable Jiu Feng nodded slightly.

"Very well!"

The middle-aged man's light shadow waved his hand again and said: "Some more specific information will naturally be known after you, Candidate Divine General, arrive at the Zushen Sect; now, come with me!"

"Where are we going?" Venerable Jiu Feng couldn't help but ask.

The middle-aged man immediately said: "Of course, to obtain the reward for your having accepted the complete Ling Feng Divine General's inheritance!"

Hearing these words, Venerable Jiu Feng's heart stirred, and he immediately hurried to follow.

You should know that just by receiving the inheritance of the Spirit Wind Divine General on the 6666th inheritance staircase, he had already obtained the Obsidian Flowing Light Wings, which had made him quite happy at the time.

【121】 After accepting the Spirit Wind General's inheritance on the 6666th level of the inheritance staircase, he had already gained the Black Obsidian Flowing Wings—and back then, he had been quite delighted.

It's just that once his strength reached the level of a cosmic overlord, the Obsidian Flowing Light Wings were no longer of much help to him!

【122】 But now that his strength had reached the Cosmic Overlord realm, the Black Obsidian Flowing Wings offered him little benefit!

"Perhaps this time's reward will be a true treasure!" Venerable Jiufeng thought to himself.

【123】 "Perhaps this reward will be a true treasure!" Jiu Feng Zifeng Zunzhe thought to himself.

At this moment, the middle-aged man's phantom continued, "Candidate Divine General, actually your luck is quite good, and your choice was also very wise!"

【124】 At that moment, the middle-aged man's light-shadow ahead continued: "Candidate General, your luck has been quite good, and your choice was wise."

"Hmm?"

【125】 "Hm?"

Hearing these words, Venerable Jiufeng couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled.

【126】 Hearing this, Jiu Feng Zifeng Zunzhe couldn't help but feel puzzled.

The middle-aged man's phantom then continued, "Under normal circumstances, among those who come to receive the Spirit Wind Divine General's inheritance, the fastest would only reach around the three-thousand-plusth inheritance staircase in a matter of years!"

【127】 The middle-aged man's light-shadow continued: "Under normal circumstances, the fastest inheritors to reach the Spirit Wind General's inheritance take several years to clear just over three thousand levels."

"And among the many inheritors this time, besides you, Candidate Divine General, who managed to reach the final inheritance staircase in just over two years, there was another inheritor who reached the 8888th inheritance staircase!"

【128】 "Among all the inheritors this time, besides you, Candidate General, who reached the final level in just over two years, another inheritor cleared the 8888th level!"

Saying this, the middle-aged man's phantom turned to glance at Venerable Jiufeng: "If you, Candidate Divine General, had chosen to give up receiving the final Spirit Wind Divine General inheritance back then, that other inheritor might have been able to reach the final level as well, and thus receive the complete Spirit Wind Divine General inheritance!"

【129】 Here, the middle-aged man's light-shadow turned to glance at Jiu Feng Zifeng Zunzhe: "Had you chosen to abandon the final Spirit Wind General's inheritance, perhaps that other inheritor could have reached the final stage and received the complete Spirit Wind General's inheritance."

"What?"

【130】 "What?"

After hearing the middle-aged man's words, Venerable Jiufeng couldn't help but feel a slight shock in his heart, followed by a wave of relief!

【131】 After hearing the middle-aged man's light-shadow, Jiu Feng Zifeng Zunzhe was startled, then flooded with relief.

Fortunately, he was the one who reached the final staircase first!

【132】 Fortunately, he was the first to reach the final level!

After the relief passed, a trace of curiosity quickly rose in Venerable Jiufeng's heart: "I wonder who exactly that inheritor who reached the 8888th inheritance staircase is?"

【133】 After the relief faded, a flicker of curiosity rose in Jiu Feng Zifeng Zunzhe's heart: "Who is the inheritor who cleared the 8888th level?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's phantom waved his hand, and an illusory screen immediately appeared before Venerable Jiufeng, displaying the figure of Lu Qingshan.

【134】 At these words, the middle-aged man's light-shadow waved his hand, and a phantom screen appeared before Jiu Feng Zifeng Zunzhe—displaying none other than Lu Qingshan's figure.

"It's actually the King of Wan Jie!" Upon seeing Lu Qingshan's figure on the screen, Venerable Jiufeng couldn't help but feel somewhat surprised.

【135】 "It's the Wan Jie King!" Jiu Feng Zifeng Zunzhe was startled upon seeing Lu Qingshan on the screen.

Lu Qingshan had only recently broken through to the King-Sealing level, and although Venerable Jiufeng didn't know much about him, he had still heard of him.

【136】 Lu Qingshan had only recently broken through to the Hei Fengwang realm; though Jiu Feng Zifeng Zunzhe knew little of him, he had heard of him.

"I didn't expect the King of Wan Jie to be able to reach the 8888th inheritance staircase in such a short time!"

【137】 "I never expected the Wan Jie King could clear the 8888th level in such a short time!"

Venerable Jiufeng thought to himself: "It seems he definitely had a chance to receive the complete Spirit Wind Divine General inheritance, but unfortunately, I was still one step faster!"

【138】 Jiu Feng Zifeng Zunzhe thought inwardly: "He clearly had the potential to receive the full Spirit Wind General's inheritance—but unfortunately, I got there first!"

Thinking of this, a trace of pride couldn't help but rise in Venerable Jiufeng's heart!

【139】 Thinking of this, a hint of pride rose in Jiu Feng Zifeng Zunzhe's heart.
