Marquis Chu Feng rose as well, seeing a figure that seemed to flicker and already stood nearby—cloaked in a dark robe, simple yet visibly torn. At first glance, it appeared merely a torn dark robe; upon closer inspection, it seemed a shattered dark world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The figure’s face bore blue scales, making it ugly, yet its eyes were calm and gentle, as if containing the entire cosmos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he walked, he naturally influenced the surrounding heavens and earth, as if the very operation of the universe revolved around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mastering one branch of the Primordial Dao grants one the status of a God-King! The complete Primordial Dao of Life can evolve the laws governing the Original Universe. Even a branch of the Dao suffices to sustain the laws of a small universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only thus can a God-King create a small universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>God-Kings each generate their own cosmic laws and possess countless unfathomable abilities. When this figure in the dark robe walked, and heaven and earth revolved around him—that was a common omen of a God-King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master Yuanxiu is merely a transcendent of the Chaos Realm, yet he can influence the operation of heaven and earth—he’s even more terrifying than when I last saw him,” Marquis Chu Feng thought in alarm, then stepped forward to greet him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother, this is Marquis Chu Feng,” the slender three-eyed man said with a smile as he stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chu Feng bows before the Master,” Marquis Chu Feng said humbly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A transcendent of the Chaos Realm is equivalent to a God-King of the First Level. Such beings rarely care for First-Rank Marquises. Only First-Rank Marquises beg for their attention—and whether they deign to respond depends entirely on their mood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Last time I met Marquis Chu Feng, you were still a Second-Rank Marquis,” Master Yuanxiu smiled. “Now you’ve reached First-Rank! To attain this level with an ordinary divine body—you truly are remarkable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master overstates my worth. Master, please be seated,” Marquis Chu Feng said warmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, all three sat down, and servants brought wine and food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I heard Master Yuanxiu came to Chu Capital to visit a God-King?” Marquis Chu Feng asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Indeed, I came to Chu Capital intending to visit a God-King. But I’ve heard… Chu Capital now has a transcendent of the Chaos Realm named Luohe the Great Sage,” Master Yuanxiu said, clearly intrigued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marquis Chu Feng nodded: “Luohe the Great Sage is very reclusive—he rarely acts. Previously, he single-handedly swept five Chaos Realm peak cultivators, revealing his true strength to the outside world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Yuanxiu said: “So reclusive—he must be wholly focused on cultivation. Marquis Chu Feng, I wish to meet this Luohe the Great Sage and engage in a Dao discussion. Please help arrange it—see if he’s willing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marquis Chu Feng’s spirit surged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t afraid a transcendent of the Chaos Realm would ask him for help—he feared they’d ignore him entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, rest assured—I’ll arrange this perfectly,” Marquis Chu Feng said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During his cultivation, Luo Feng occasionally stepped out to relax his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, Marquis Chu Feng personally came to visit,” Mo Luo Sa told Luo Feng. “You were in seclusion, so I didn’t disturb you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He came to visit?” Luo Feng was surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marquis Chu Feng was a First-Rank Royal Clan member. Luo Feng had been in seclusion, yet the Marquis had left without intrusion—quite respectful of protocol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did he say why?” Luo Feng asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Luo Sa said: “Marquis Chu Feng mentioned his friend, Master Yuanxiu, wishes to host a banquet for you and discuss Dao. His visit was to see whether you’d be willing to attend.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Discuss Dao? Master Yuanxiu?” Luo Feng knew of him well—there were only two transcendent of the Chaos Realm in the Di Chu lineage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was Minghuo Marquis, a direct disciple of Emperor Di Chu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other was Master Yuanxiu, a direct disciple of the sovereign of the First-Rank nation, Wanjie Nation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Origin Continent had three First-Rank forces: Tianmu Nation, Wanjie Nation, and Dongji Region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dongji Region was the last refuge of the Origin Continent’s original natives. Though these natives lacked wisdom and insight, their collective strength was enough to form a First-Rank force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianmu Nation possessed a Peak World Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wanjie Nation existed because of its sovereign—the one man who elevated his nation to First-Rank status. Wanjie Sovereign was among the pinnacle beings of the Origin Continent. His disciples were numerous: some served as guest elders in Thunder Ancient Nation, others in Flame Wind Ancient Nation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, will you attend the banquet and discuss Dao?” Mo Luo Sa asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Agree to them,” Luo Feng nodded. A Dao discussion with an equal was of great interest to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, transcendent of the Chaos Realm like Master Yuanxiu, who cultivated through Primordial Matter or Primordial Bloodline, were the norm on the Origin Continent. This was a chance to see how he differed from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Chu Capital, the famed Thirteen Star Hall—Master Yuanxiu hosted the banquet, specifically to invite Luohe the Great Sage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once, thirteen Emperors of Flame Wind Ancient Nation gathered in Chu Capital, and Emperor Di Chu himself established the Thirteen Star Hall. After they met there, the hall became renowned—and hosting a banquet here was costly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Marquis Chu Feng arranged everything, and he did so with great splendor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Two transcendent of the Chaos Realm discussing Dao! How rare!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I heard all six First-Rank Marquises except Marquis Chu Yuan attended.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's a pity we don't have the qualification to witness it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some chefs preparing food whispered quietly—they were all famed chefs of Chu Capital, each an Eternal True God. Today, even a Chaos Realm head chef had been personally invited by Marquis Chu Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In another pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little Fish, I went to great lengths to get you into today’s performance before the hall,” a chubby man urged. “Today, all of Chu Capital’s elite are gathered—six of the seven First-Rank Marquises are here! Two transcendent of the Chaos Realm! Over ten God-King direct disciples! If even one takes notice of you and offers help, you’ll escape your plight.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Marquis Chu Le, thank you so much! Without your help, I probably wouldn’t be alive today,” said a woman in green robes. “Sigh—I’m a Third-Rank Royal Clan member with no power whatsoever.” The chubby man shook his head. “In Chu Capital, I’m no match for even those Chaos Realm cultivators with real authority.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Di Chu Royal Clan had twenty-nine marquises; only two possessed ordinary Chaos Realm strength—Marquis Chu Le was one! To the Royal Clan, resources flowed to the weakest ordinary Chaos Realm cultivators—naturally deemed useless, with no cultivation potential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng’s single Silver River blade flash carried the power of a mid-level Chaos Realm cultivator burning all divine energy in a full strike—far stronger than Marquis Chu Le.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marquis Chu Le was accustomed to this life—he preferred pleasure and had many like-minded friends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let me warn you,” the chubby man said. “The two highest-ranking transcendent of the Chaos Realm here—one is Luohe the Great Sage. He loves music!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The green-robed woman’s eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is secret information about Luohe the Great Sage—I spent many cosmic sands to obtain it,” the chubby man said. “When he was in Huyang City, he favored two musicians skilled in music. If your music pleases him, your status in Chu Capital will be secure.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Marquis Chu Le,” the green-robed woman said gratefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s all I can do—the rest is up to you,” the chubby man waved and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The green-robed woman waited patiently—she wasn’t the only performer at this banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this banquet, those entering the main hall included six Royal Clan First-Rank Marquises, eight Royal Clan Second-Rank Marquises, nine guest elders, and fifteen God-King direct disciples, along with their attendants. Of course, the two most central seats were reserved for the two transcendent of the Chaos Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Luohe the Great Sage has arrived.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This banquet’s main purpose was to host Luohe the Great Sage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Luo Feng arrived with Di Chu Yu, all eyes turned to them. Royal Clan Third-Rank Marquises, families of First- and Second-Rank Marquises, and idle Chaos Realm cultivators waited in side halls; servants and attendants strained to catch a glimpse of the black-robed man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black-robed man appeared; Di Chu Yu stepped slightly behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the main hall, Master Yuanxiu appeared voluntarily to greet him personally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Luohe Brother,” Master Yuanxiu smiled at Luo Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yuanxiu Brother,” Luo Feng replied, smiling at this transcendent of the Chaos Realm—his dark robe subtly centered the operation of heaven and earth’s laws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can influence the laws of heaven and earth?” Luo Feng thought in awe—he couldn’t do that! In terms of Dao comprehension, he still lagged behind these transcendent of the Chaos Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Yuanxiu was also observing Luo Feng. His greatest strength was the dark prison-fortress he cultivated within his body—a single thought could imprison all things within a vast surrounding realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Incredible body,” Master Yuanxiu thought upon seeing Luo Feng—the black-robed man, whose aura was utterly concealed, felt heavier than the vast surrounding heavens and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So heavy—trying to drag him into the dark prison would be extremely difficult!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his level of insight, even without combat, a single glance gave him partial conclusions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“His body is heavier than many ancient beings newly entering the God-King realm,” Master Yuanxiu thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Luohe Brother, please.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Yuanxiu and Luo Feng were both courteous—they were here only to discuss Dao, so both were polite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had this been combat, it would have been entirely different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They walked into the main hall together; all First-Rank Marquises, Second-Rank Marquises, guest elders, and God-King direct disciples rose to greet them, then took their seats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Begin the banquet,” Marquis Chu Feng ordered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The banquet officially began, with dishes, wine, and fruits served one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng tasted them, surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The weakest dishes here were at least on par with the Black Butcher’s from Fire Realm Restaurant; some far surpassed him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A simple plate of sliced food seemed to gather the essence of heaven and earth, highly appetizing. Luo Feng took a bite—its effect on his soul surpassed many heavenly treasures, sharpening his perception of all things and greatly aiding his cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Younger Brother Yu’s culinary skill has improved further,” Master Yuanxiu said after tasting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To reach the Chaos Realm through culinary arts is truly remarkable,” Luo Feng knew this man—Yu Jiufang, a Chaos Realm guest elder of Di Chu lineage. His strength was merely peak Chaos Realm, yet he had attained it through culinary arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the undisputed top chef in all of Chu Capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You flatter me,” Yu Jiufang now entered the hall. He held pride before Royal Clan Marquises, but before the two transcendent of the Chaos Realm, he was humble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dishes, rare spiritual fruits, and precious wines kept arriving!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dance, music, song…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Performers here had at least reached Eternal True God level through their respective paths. Weaker cultivators watching would be mentally overwhelmed. Luo Feng and the others watched with ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No wonder Chu Capital is famed—several performers today surpassed the music artistry of Dream Flower Pavilion’s master,” Luo Feng mused. “I could use this to practice the Seven Emotions Cultivation Method.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long-term cultivation often dulls emotions, making feelings increasingly flat. The Seven Emotions Cultivation Method helps awaken the heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Performance ended.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the green-robed woman finished, she sensed the guests smiling, chatting, and drinking. The two transcendent of the Chaos Realm at the main seat seemed to be chatting casually, paying her no special attention. She dared not stare; as soon as time was up, she obediently withdrew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1974,"2026-06-20T20:44:59.403Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","510399f3c39bb4fdc2b381df02f608e6bbbf33bf8630b67e57652e13e8ee9656","devouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-chapter-126","devouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-chapter-124",340,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdevouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-cover.jpg"]
