Even the Divine Kings frequently invited him; he wouldn’t necessarily accept an invitation from a first-rank imperial marquis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, it was a Dao-discussion banquet between two Chaotic Realm transcendents!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Jiufang knew his place—he could afford to be aloof toward those Chaotic Realm cultivators and imperial marquises. But toward Divine Kings and Chaotic Realm transcendents… he kept his posture extremely humble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Luohe,” said Yuanxiu Mansion Master, smiling, “I’ve cultivated for eons, primarily refining a dark mansion prison. Today, I’ll use some dark mansion techniques to spar with Brother Luohe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guests in the main hall immediately realized the core of this banquet had arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a clash between beings of this caliber was rarely seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I specialize in physical cultivation—I’ll use physical techniques to test myself against Brother Yuanxiu,” Luo Feng nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanxiu Mansion Master nodded. His dark robe had slight tears, resembling a fractured dark world, and now tiny dark flames began spreading from the fabric. These dark flames drifted through the main hall toward Luo Feng: “These are Dark Mansion Flames, capable of burning the divine bodies and souls of Dark Mansion prisoners.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng looked at the dark flames, and immediately, his black robe likewise spread black liquid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These black liquids surged like water, swiftly meeting the dark flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sssss~” The dark flames burned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black liquid rapidly enveloped and covered each flame, wrapping every single one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This black liquid was the Yin-Yang particle form of the Black Abyss Transformation Art. Though it appeared as a modest spread, in truth, it had extended over a billion units.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng clearly understood the advantage of his Transformation Art—overwhelming quantity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Their robes aren’t ordinary—Yuanxiu Mansion Master’s robe can transform into Dark Mansion Flames? Luohe Grand Saint’s robe can extend black liquid too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The black liquid has engulfed all the Dark Mansion Flames.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even though the Dark Mansion Flames won’t extinguish, the black liquid easily traps them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The imperial first-rank marquises, second-rank marquises, Chaotic Realm guest advisors, and Divine King disciples—all had extraordinary insight and sensed the terror of both sides’ techniques. Dark Mansion Flames were infamous; even peak Chaotic Realm cultivators dared not resist them directly, for resistance would burn them into nothingness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Luohe Grand Saint was a Chaotic Realm transcendent who specialized in physical cultivation. Everyone knew that a Chaotic Realm transcendent focused solely on physical cultivation was virtually indestructible at this level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What secret art is this black liquid?” Yuanxiu Mansion Master exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could sense the Dark Mansion Flames couldn’t harm the black liquid at all—and if Luo Feng wished, the black liquid could crush and annihilate these flames under its weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng had already tried annihilating a few strands, allowing Yuanxiu Mansion Master to perceive the terrifying nature of the black liquid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng smiled: “Call it Black Abyss Water.” He knew well that a single unit of Black Abyss Transformation Art would be burned and shattered—but a billion units surging together naturally held absolute dominance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Black Abyss Water?” Yuanxiu Mansion Master understood. “Remarkable. Remarkable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The onlookers among the guests were also secretly stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dark Mansion Flames needed no introduction to their reputation. Yet this Black Abyss Water seemed no less formidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huu.” The Dark Mansion Flames retreated, all retracting into Yuanxiu Mansion Master’s dark robe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng thought, and the billion units of black liquid retracted entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have an axe that gathers Dark Mansion power, capable of slaying Dark Mansion prisoners,” said Yuanxiu Mansion Master. Instantly, the surrounding heavens and earth darkened, and a colossal axe blade appeared faintly, like divine punishment. “This is also one of my strongest techniques.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I favor sword techniques—this is likewise one of my strongest direct combat techniques,” Luo Feng waved his hand, and eighty thousand river-like sword lights condensed into a similarly massive blade of light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Thirteen Star Hall, once the gathering place of thirteen Emperor Kings, possessed terrifying arrays.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the array’s operation, there was no concern that the residual shockwaves from the two Chaotic Realm transcendents’ sparring would affect other guests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“These are both their ultimate techniques.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I wonder who’s stronger.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guests watched tensely; some guests in side halls didn’t even have the privilege to observe, only knowing that combat had begun in the main hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hummmmmm~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The colossal axe blade, like divine punishment, descended slowly—not fast, yet its aura made clear it was unstoppable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cut.” Luo Feng’s mind activated, and the massive blade formed from eighty thousand river-like sword lights met the axe with a “River Slash.” Mobilizing so many river-like sword lights while executing a Chaotic Realm-level refined technique placed immense strain on Luo Feng’s mental will—this was indeed his near-limit long-range offensive technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The axe blade and the sword light collided!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, behind the axe blade, a vast shadow of the Dark Mansion prison faintly appeared, as if the entire world’s power reinforced it, carrying annihilation, penetration, divine punishment, and other forces, making the axe blade terrifyingly potent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng’s massive sword light resembled eighty thousand mid-tier Chaotic Realm masters simultaneously burning their divine power to its limit and striking with the “River Slash” intent—its power was too terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The current River Slash fused subtleties from the “Seventy-Two Cuts of Annihilation,” specifically the “Sky-Splitting Line” and “Dark Sky Line”—though simplified, it carried the meaning of dividing one into two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shhh.” The colossal axe blade was cleanly severed in half by the sword light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng’s massive sword light, however, was not a complete weapon artifact—it was the convergence of eighty thousand river-like sword lights. After such a collision, numerous cracks appeared, yet instantly reformed and merged again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The massive axe blade healed instantly—it was a manifestation of the Dark Mansion world's power, not a weapon artifact. \"Impressive,\" said the Yuanxiu Mansion Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Remarkable,” Luo Feng also sensed the difference. The axe blade’s power was far inferior to his own slash, yet it could effortlessly find the cracks in his sword light. It could swiftly identify that the eighty thousand river-like sword lights weren’t unified, naturally penetrating and splitting them apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in this single clash, three of his eighty thousand river-like sword lights were annihilated! Of course, he still possessed a vast reserve of River Transformation Art units.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All my techniques originate from the Dark Mansion,” said Yuanxiu Mansion Master. “The Dark Mansion is my strongest method, Brother Luohe—dare you enter and test its might?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng smiled: “I dare not.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanxiu Mansion Master paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was merely a sparring match, held within the Thirteen Star Hall, in Chu Capital—he naturally followed the rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I can release a portion of my power to test the Dark Mansion’s might,” Luo Feng said, waving his hand. Five Transformation Arts each sent forth ten billion units, coalescing into a single silver-light figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good,” Yuanxiu Mansion Master beamed, immediately focusing on the silver-light figure, preparing to trap it with the Dark Mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hummmm!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terrifying Dark Mansion world power enveloped the silver-light figure, attempting to drag it into the Dark Mansion. But the silver-light figure stood firm, as if rooted in place, utterly immovable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boommmmmmm~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Dark Mansion unleashed its full dragging force, warping the surrounding space into chaos. Even the guests protected by the Thirteen Star Hall array stared in shock at the scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The full display of the Dark Mansion’s power was rarely witnessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It can’t even move it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Dark Mansion is a prison world cultivated within Yuanxiu Mansion Master’s body! Once imprisoned, escape is nearly impossible. Yet the silver-light body formed from Luohe Grand Saint’s partial power—can the Dark Mansion not imprison it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All observers watched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng appeared calm, but his mental consciousness was concentrated on the silver-light body, resisting the Dark Mansion’s drag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hum.” The Dark Mansion’s dragging force was mysterious, capable of influencing mental consciousness—but Luo Feng’s Divine King Level Two mental will, combined with the Lieyuan Technique, ignored this influence entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The world’s dragging force was immense, yet the silver-light body, composed of fifty billion units of Transformation Art, vibrated slightly and broke free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Luohe’s physical cultivation method is inconceivable,” Yuanxiu Mansion Master praised. “I cannot trap it within the Dark Mansion—I can only bring the Dark Mansion world itself to descend.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hummmmm~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dark world descended from nothingness into reality—this was Yuanxiu Mansion Master’s cultivated Dark Mansion. It could exist within his body or be released externally, though external release weakened its power. Now, it actively descended, enveloping Luo Feng’s silver-light body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Dark Mansion world enveloped it, the silver-light body’s constraints intensified, and eight chains wrapped around it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These eight chains were each of a different color, inscribed with mysterious patterns and infused with the aura of Primordial Power. Yuanxiu Mansion Master had smelted Primordial materials into his dark prison to forge these eight prison chains. Luo Feng felt the chains’ binding—sealing, suppressing, restraining, strangling, penetrating, shredding—various forces seeped into his power avatar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silver-light body erupted in power, yet the eight chains remained unharmed, utterly unbroken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph.” The silver-light body suddenly swelled, forcibly stretching the eight chains wide—but still could not snap them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My Transformation Art can scatter and coalesce without form, yet once bound by these eight chains, not a single unit can escape,” Luo Feng marveled. “Only brute force can resist.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silver-light body grew towering, its head touching the main hall’s ceiling, unleashing all its power—yet still could not break free from the eight prison chains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Yuanxiu’s Dark Mansion is indeed formidable. My power avatar cannot break free,” Luo Feng sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I cannot even drag one of Brother Luohe’s power avatars into the Dark Mansion—what use are these chains if they can’t harm a power avatar?” Yuanxiu Mansion Master said aloud, though inwardly he was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had cultivated a secret art and forged this Dark Prison with Primordial materials!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would have thought that Luohe Grand Saint’s physical cultivation had reached such a level—merely a power avatar, and he still couldn’t fully imprison it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I can trap his avatar, but cannot harm it. What if it were his true body? Whether I could trap him at all remains uncertain.” Yuanxiu Mansion Master now confirmed the terrifying nature of this man’s physical cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanxiu Mansion Master thought, and retracted the Dark Mansion world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng likewise retracted his power avatar. Such a massive avatar could only be deployed up close—he had no body division technique; at great distances, he could barely manifest a trace of divine power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This power avatar contained fifty billion units of Transformation Art, yet still couldn’t break the chains—it’s roughly two or three tenths of his true body’s power,” Luo Feng thought. His current total Transformation Art reserve was two hundred billion units. “If his true body were trapped, he might not escape either.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This exchange made Luo Feng understand the terrifying nature of ordinary Chaotic Realm transcendents. This Dark Prison, forged with Primordial materials, could imprison ordinary Divine Kings—only time would be needed for them to escape, and even then, the Dark Prison would remain unharmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This Dao-discussion with Brother Luohe has shown me the might of physical cultivation Chaotic Realm transcendents,” said Yuanxiu Mansion Master, raising his cup. “Please.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please,” Luo Feng also raised his cup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other guests in the main hall watched the sparring in awe—these two’s power… far surpassed the Chaotic Realm, reaching the Divine King realm. Even a fraction of their power could annihilate them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The banquet ended peacefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>News of this clash spread rapidly through Chu Capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1954,"2026-06-20T20:44:59.403Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","a44e7a59c900ad8bcef1899fa5e5377a5bab8ebca6a2217ef441456f0750d5d7","devouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-chapter-127","devouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-chapter-125",340,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdevouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-cover.jpg"]
