Back to cultivating the Ten Directions World Form.” Luo Feng resumed his contemplation of the Ten Directions World Form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Life and Destruction were the foundational pillars of the ‘Life-Death Dao.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The firmer the foundation, the stronger the fused ‘Life-Death Dao’ would become.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the border of the Yanfeng Ancient Nation, Xiangjie City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A white-robed man walked to the front of the Garrison Headquarters; his appearance was holy, gender-ambiguous, yet the guards at the gate could not see him at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Luohe the Great Sage,” the white-robed man spoke, his voice already reaching Luo Feng’s ears through causality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So it’s Divine King Bolu.” Luo Feng had sensed his arrival the moment he entered the city, but if the man didn’t come to visit, Luo Feng would pretend not to notice—after all, countless beings came and went daily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the man had come to visit, Luo Feng naturally went to the gate to greet him personally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This…” The guards finally saw the holy white-robed man standing there, some even becoming entranced without realizing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Divine King Bolu, please come in.” Luo Feng spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divine King Bolu smiled slightly and stepped inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the reception pavilion, both sat facing each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Divine King Bolu, Luo Feng felt no pressure. Bolu was Emperor Qing’s direct disciple, peerless in the Divine King First Layer realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emperor Qing, the most transcendent of the thirteen Emperor Monarchs of Yanfeng Ancient Nation, had taken fifteen direct disciples: six Divine Kings, eight Transcendent Chaos Realm cultivators, and one peak Chaos Realm cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All six Divine Kings were extraordinary—one was Divine King Second Layer, two were peerless in Divine King First Layer, and three were at the extreme limit of Divine King First Layer—demonstrating Emperor Qing’s exceptional ability to cultivate disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one who became a Divine King was ordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divine King Bolu was one of the six; he reached peerless Divine King First Layer strength only after switching to the Hunyuan Bloodline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng knew that even if he gave his all now, he possessed only ‘extreme limit’ Divine King First Layer strength. As a Chaos Realm cultivator possessing such power… naturally, he felt no pressure facing Divine King Bolu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Great Sage Luohe, you and I are both direct disciples of the Emperor and guest ministers of Yanfeng Ancient Nation—we share similar circumstances,” Divine King Bolu smiled. “We guest ministers should strengthen our connections, help each other, and walk our cultivation paths more smoothly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That makes sense,” Luo Feng agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divine King Bolu was famous for his exceptional social skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among Emperor Qing’s direct disciples, he was the most gifted in networking, with friends scattered across the Origin Continent. Most admired by outsiders was his excellent relationship with many Divine Kings of the Ten Thousand Worlds Nation—even successfully becoming a disciple of the ‘Ten Thousand Worlds Sovereign.’ Emperor Qing, his master, had permitted it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Divine King who was simultaneously a disciple of both Emperor Qing and the Ten Thousand Worlds Sovereign—there was only one such person on the entire Origin Continent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the Ten Thousand Worlds Nation and Yanfeng Ancient Nation also maintained good relations; many of the Sovereign’s disciples served as guest ministers in Yanfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I founded a mutual aid organization called ‘Tianxin Alliance,’ with no rules—just to make it easier for everyone to connect,” Divine King Bolu said. “Our organization mainly invites Divine Kings of the First Layer. We now have over a hundred members, and three early members have broken through to Divine King Second Layer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Our members come from two Ancient Nations, three top-tier factions, and numerous kingdoms,” Divine King Bolu smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve heard of the Tianxin Alliance,” Luo Feng said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His own master, Mountain Guest, had once been a member of the Tianxin Alliance when he was still Jin Zhi Divine King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was simply a platform for Divine Kings to connect, with no constraints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divine King Bolu, for establishing this platform, had cultivated excellent relations with many factions. As a disciple of both Emperor Qing and the Ten Thousand Worlds Sovereign, and a sovereign-level force himself, his influence on the Origin Continent was immense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Great Sage Luohe, would you care to join?” Divine King Bolu asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course,” Luo Feng nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had joined the Wheel of Rebirth Pavilion, yet he could join other groups too. The Tianxin Alliance wasn’t even a faction—it merely facilitated easier contact among Divine Kings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divine King Bolu smiled: “Hah! Great Sage Luohe, you’re straightforward. If you ever encounter trouble or need help, don’t hesitate to ask! Though my abilities are limited, I have friends scattered across the Origin Continent—I can find ways to resolve many matters.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I will,” Luo Feng nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divine King Bolu had a good reputation precisely because he willingly helped other Divine Kings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Here is the Tianxin Token. After joining, many Divine Kings will surely reach out to you,” Divine King Bolu handed Luo Feng a token.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng looked at the wooden token, smiled, and accepted it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I won’t stay any longer,” Divine King Bolu rose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng personally escorted him out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they walked through the Garrison Headquarters, they encountered servants, all of whom bowed deeply in reverence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master,” they suddenly met Mo Yu Qingyan and his wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is Divine King Bolu,” Luo Feng said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yu Qingyan and Zhang Yunge both trembled inwardly—they were not ordinary Eternal True Gods and were well-informed, aware of Divine King Bolu’s renown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We pay our respects to Divine King Bolu,” Mo Yu Qingyan and Zhang Yunge both bowed respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So this is your only disciple, Mo Yu Qingyan?” Divine King Bolu smiled at Mo Yu Qingyan, then noticed Zhang Yunge beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng added, “This is my disciple Qingyan, and beside him is his wife Yunge.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yunge?” Divine King Bolu said. “I believe I’ve met you before.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yunge was excited. “Divine King, you’ve compassionately given public sermons many times in ‘Bolu City,’ guiding us humble cultivators… I’ve attended three times to listen to your teachings.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng listened nearby. Divine King Bolu not only helped other Divine Kings—he also generously aided the weak, frequently giving public sermons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he taught only basic methods like how to comprehend Chaos Laws, the explanations of a sovereign-level being were still priceless; each sermon drew countless Eternal True Gods to Bolu City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahahaha…” Divine King Bolu laughed. “Cultivation is difficult. I merely offer a few small pointers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, without further words, Divine King Bolu departed with Luo Feng’s escort, leaving Xiangjie City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Divine King Bolu’s power is supreme, yet he is incredibly benevolent,” Zhang Yunge returned to her cave dwelling, still exhilarated. “Before, I only watched and listened from afar. Today, he spoke to me so kindly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He is very kind,” Mo Yu Qingyan agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, a powerful Divine King speaking a few words to two Eternal True Gods was rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In a few days, Divine King Bolu will give another public sermon,” Zhang Yunge looked at Mo Yu Qingyan. “Let’s go together! Let’s go listen to the Divine King’s teachings.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go together?” Mo Yu Qingyan paused to think.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s soon—just a few days,” Zhang Yunge urged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, I’ll adjust my duty shift ahead of time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yu Qingyan smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>City affairs were rotated; cultivators needed time for their own cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bolu City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the day of Divine King Bolu’s sermon, Eternal True Gods from all directions gathered on the square—nearly a million of them stared eagerly upward; when Divine King Bolu appeared, all were filled with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over a million Eternal True Gods had come—already a small number, due to the great distances and dangers of travel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Divine King Bolu’s sermon is truly extraordinary,” Mo Yu Qingyan remarked after listening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He admitted it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bolu’s teachings were even more detailed than those of his second master; though Bolu taught for only one day, Mo Luo Sa’s guidance lasted longer and could be tailored to Mo Yu Qingyan’s specific questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I feel I’ve gained new insights,” Zhang Yunge was also excited. “If I had a Divine King as a master to guide me regularly, perhaps I too could reach the Chaos Realm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cultivators on the square began to disperse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mo Yu Qingyan, Zhang Yunge—the Divine King requests your presence,” a servant of Divine King Bolu came to invite them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He wants to see us?” Mo Yu Qingyan and Zhang Yunge were stunned, then immediately followed him into the only mountain within the city—Bolu Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A secluded spot on Bolu Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yu Qingyan and Zhang Yunge saw Divine King Bolu sitting calmly there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We pay our respects to the Divine King,” they bowed deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mo Yu Qingyan, how is your master?” Divine King Bolu asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My master is well, as always—devoted entirely to cultivation,” Mo Yu Qingyan replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Great Sage Luohe has pure intentions—he will surely surpass me in potential,” Divine King Bolu praised, then looked at them both. “You came from the border to listen to my sermon—your sincerity is evident. Show me some of your techniques.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yu Qingyan and Zhang Yunge demonstrated their techniques in turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divine King Bolu gave each precise guidance; the two young cultivators listened intently, feeling immense gains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your talents are merely average—you must work harder and focus more if you hope to break into the Chaos Realm,” Divine King Bolu said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We understand,” Mo Yu Qingyan and his wife listened carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mo Yu Qingyan has Great Sage Luohe as his master—he needs no further guidance from me. Zhang Yunge… if you wish, you may become my disciple,” Divine King Bolu said. He had taken many disciples; over three hundred now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yunge was overjoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her clan, she had never even met a Divine King ancestor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Xiangjie City, Luo Feng rarely gave more than occasional advice to his direct disciple Mo Yu Qingyan, leaving most guidance to Mo Luo Sa—let alone to Zhang Yunge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Disciple bows to Master,” Zhang Yunge immediately knelt down—how could she miss such an opportunity to become a disciple of a Divine King?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yu Qingyan, beside her, was also delighted—his wife’s cultivation path now had hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm.” Master Bolu smiled and nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As my disciple, the mountain will assign you a residence—you and your spouse may live there, or return to Xiangjie City whenever you wish.” Master Bolu spoke, and a servant immediately led Mo Yu Qingyan and the others away for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Bolu watched this scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, Zhang Yunge has average talent—she has no hope of breaking into the Chaos Realm. Why take her as your disciple?” the Chaos Realm elder servant asked, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nothing is absolute. If she focuses on cultivation, perhaps a miracle may occur,” Master Bolu said. “Moreover, I took her as my disciple because of that Luohe Great Sage—it’s a small karmic connection.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Luohe Great Sage?” the Chaos Realm elder servant said. “He’s merely a Chaos Realm transcendental.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s a Chaos Realm transcendental who created his own secret art and rivals the peak strength of a God King of the First Layer,” Master Bolu said. “Once he becomes a God King, he will swiftly achieve ‘Invincible in God King First Layer.’ Across the Origin Continent, fewer than five can reach such a state without external aid. Luohe will soon be one of them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Bolu looked at his long-serving elder servant: “This Luohe will one day be far stronger than I am.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The path of cultivation is hard, filled with endless dangers—even I could fall with a single misstep. Making friends is one way to mitigate risk, and such a powerful friend is worth cultivating.” Master Bolu turned and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder servant understood and hurried after him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, Master Bolu has taken Yunge as his disciple.” Mo Yu Qingyan sent word back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Xiangjie City, Luo Feng received the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s a good thing,” Luo Feng replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",2127,"2026-06-20T20:44:59.403Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","98d3625812d13f0ab9745fa3ba003b6e8d935c29be10e32d08658925906351ef","devouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-chapter-172","devouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-chapter-170",340,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdevouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-cover.jpg"]
