And why is he so stubborn?” The Skywhale Monarch was exasperated. In raw power, he wasn’t afraid of Luo Feng. He could even unleash greater pressure—if he wanted to fight, he fought; if he wanted to leave, he left. Luo Feng couldn’t stop him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if Luo Feng’s ten incarnations moved against Shiguo, he couldn’t stop them either—he had only one true body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He ruled the vast second-tier nation “Shiguo,” with its clans and numerous followers. But Luohe was unattached; the ten Chaos States he’d just acquired were a gift from Yugo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barefoot aren’t afraid of the shodden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Skywhale Monarch was the shodden—he controlled too much land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng was barefoot—he had little territory and no ties. He even had only one disciple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they truly fought, could Shiguo withstand it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine.” The Skywhale Monarch’s blood-red eyes fixed on Luo Feng. “I underestimated you, Luohe Shenwang. I didn’t expect a mere Shenwang of the First Realm to possess such terrifying power. These ten Chaos States are yours—as compensation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re quite straightforward, Skywhale Monarch.” Luo Feng nodded. “Now we’re neighbors. We’ll have to deal with each other often.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph.” The Skywhale Monarch was even more pained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d already been troubled by the second-tier nation “Yugo” beside him. He could freely swallow up third-tier nations, but facing equals was far harder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Skywhale Monarch’s eyes, Luo Feng’s faction was even more troublesome than Yugo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Skywhale Monarch flapped his wings and vanished into the heavens and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ten silver-robed Luo Fengs, towering as high as heaven and earth, vanished in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s over.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I never expected Luohe Shenwang to be on par with the Skywhale Monarch.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Another formidable overlord has emerged on the Origin Continent.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All watching factions realized Luo Feng was not to be trifled with. The Skywhale Monarch’s deadliest attacks had been absorbed by any one of Luo Feng’s incarnations—with barely any damage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when swallowed into the stomach sac did Luo Feng deliberately detonate himself. Otherwise, the sac’s erosion alone could never kill even one incarnation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My disciple has already reached parity with the Skywhale Monarch.” Zuoshanke’s eyes glowed red with overwhelming emotion. “I should go see Luo Feng.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Huyang City, within the governor’s mansion, atop a pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Younger Brother Luohe, thank you so much!” The Yuwater Monarch’s avatar arrived, deeply moved. Luo Feng’s power had surpassed his expectations—the matter had been resolved too smoothly. If Luo Feng had been merely a normal invincible Shenwang of the First Realm, this affair would have dragged on with countless conflicts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It was nothing.” Luo Feng smiled. “Younger Brother Yuwater, I heard your true body is in the treasure land ‘Tianhe.’ Be careful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They may outnumber me, but I’m not easy to bully.” The Yuwater Monarch was confident. “Younger Brother Luohe, be careful too. You’ve angered the Skywhale Monarch deeply because of me. Given his nature, he won’t let this go. If you run into trouble, just call out—I’ll come at once.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng smiled: “You might not know—I just demanded ten Chaos States from Shiguo as compensation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His negotiations with the Skywhale Monarch had been sealed off from all outside perception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?” The Yuwater Monarch was stunned. “You demanded ten Chaos States?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since we’ve angered him, let’s anger him thoroughly.” Luo Feng smiled faintly, gazing toward the distant Shiguo. “Now we’re neighbors too. There’ll be plenty of fighting ahead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you need Yugo’s help, just call,” the Yuwater Monarch replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, when Shiguo invaded, Luo Feng had unhesitatingly chosen Yugo’s side—deeply moving the Yuwater Monarch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without doubt, in the future, Yugo would stand firmly with Luo Feng’s faction against Shiguo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the royal palace of Shiguo’s capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big Brother.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Monarch.” The other four Shenwang of Shiguo stared at the Skywhale Monarch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That Luohe has enveloped ten of our Chaos States with his world force, declared them his from now on, and ordered all Chaos Realm cultivators to evacuate within a day,” Wu Xiang Laozu pleaded urgently. “Big Brother, are we really just giving up ten Chaos States?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If we don’t give them up, do you think Luohe will stop?” The Skywhale Monarch sat on his throne, coldly glancing at Wu Xiang Laozu. “His ten incarnations stormed into Shiguo. Which one of you four could stop even one?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four Shenwang froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had witnessed it—each incarnation was terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If we truly fight, Shiguo will never know peace again,” the Skywhale Monarch shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“True, he has ten incarnations, but in direct combat, Big Brother still holds the upper hand,” Dao Mo Shenwang said. “If we drag it out, he’ll lose.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I can’t outlast him,” the Skywhale Monarch said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xiang Laozu, Dao Mo Shenwang, Liu Yu Shenwang, and Ku Feng Shenwang all froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“His massive body has extreme regenerative capacity—it seems to carry its own source of life. He recovers even while fighting. In the battle just now… his energy reserves didn’t drop a single bit.” The Skywhale Monarch said. “Even with the upper hand, I can’t destroy even one of his incarnations.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s even more troublesome than the Yuwater Monarch.” The Skywhale Monarch shook his head. “Until we find a way to deal with him, don’t provoke him again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.” The four Shenwang exchanged glances and obediently replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If even their own Monarch admitted he couldn’t destroy a single Luohe incarnation, there was no point in fighting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Skywhale Monarch rose and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, within the treasure land “Tianhe,” the Skywhale Monarch arrived in just over a dozen breaths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An endless, boundless Tianhe river surged through space and time, engulfing all things, roaring ceaselessly. Merely its aura made Shenwang tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a treasure land valued higher than “Infinite Space” in the outside world. Especially for those cultivating Water-type Hunyuan bloodlines, it was of immeasurable importance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Skywhale Monarch transformed into his true form and merged into the Tianhe’s waters. The river naturally washed over his massive body, refining it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Merely drifting within it was cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You can’t deal with Luohe either?” The Skywhale Monarch sent a thought through karmic threads to his five other friends. “I’ve taken a heavy loss—he forced me to hand over ten Chaos States.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you can’t erase even one of his incarnations, neither can we.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And through karmic sensing, I’ve confirmed—he has hidden incarnations in Huyang City, Chudu, and Xiangjie City. Ten incarnations… may not even be his limit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“His explosive power is slightly weaker than ours. But he’s just too hard to handle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These powerful beings all feared Luo Feng and avoided provoking such a foe. They could unite against the Yuwater Monarch—but against Luo Feng, they had no consensus. None were willing to fight him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since we can’t pressure Yuwater from outside, let’s find a way to eliminate him within Tianhe.” The six still had patience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among all Origin Continent cultivators, only a dozen or so Water-type Hunyuan bloodline practitioners had reached their level. Below the Emperor, the greatest threat to them was the Yuwater Monarch—he was perfectly adapted to Tianhe and acquired treasures far beyond them. They had to unite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Yanfeng Ancient Nation, Bolu City, Bolu Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master.” Zhang Yunge, summoned by a Shenwang, hurriedly came to pay respects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After so long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the first time her master had summoned her specifically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yunge.” Bolu Shenwang smiled at Zhang Yunge. “Luohe just became a Shenwang, and now he’s battled the Skywhale Monarch to a standstill. I’m going to congratulate him—you’ll come with me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bolu Shenwang was in high spirits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yunge’s heart trembled. Congratulate Luohe Shenwang? And she would accompany him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve been on the mountain so long. This time, when you return, you can reunite with Mo Yu Qingyan,” Bolu Shenwang smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yunge hesitated, then dared not hide it: “Master, I’ve already parted ways with Qingyan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Parted?” Bolu Shenwang frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I entered your sect to focus entirely on cultivation. I didn’t want distractions. So I parted with Qingyan,” Zhang Yunge said respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bolu Shenwang’s gaze turned cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As an invincible Shenwang of the First Realm, a Hunyuan bloodline cultivator, Bolu Shenwang usually treated all beings kindly. But he, too, had been tainted by residual bloodline will—though he’d always maintained full control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, anger surged. Invisible malevolent energy spread naturally. Zhang Yunge felt her soul tremble, her mind going blank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fool!” Bolu Shenwang snarled coldly, then swept his sleeve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An invisible force seized Zhang Yunge and instantly teleported her out of Bolu Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Zhang Yunge regained awareness, she found herself in Bolu City. She looked around and saw the distant sacred mountain—Bolu Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve been banished by my master?” Zhang Yunge couldn’t believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You may not return to the mountain without my permission,” her master’s voice echoed in her mind—a permanent imprint burned into her soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yunge’s heart shuddered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had thought her master, towering above all, was a direct disciple of Emperor Qing and a dominant force on the Origin Continent, renowned far and wide. She thought such a master, who taught openly to countless beings, would never care about personal emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fool. My master called me a fool.” That rebuke would haunt her forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A master who showed compassion to all beings had still shouted at her—his fury was undeniable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was wrong,” Zhang Yunge gazed at Bolu Mountain, feeling cold inside. “I thought my master helped the weak, taught openly to countless lowly beings, out of mercy and boundless benevolence—unlike the Eternal True Gods.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I was wrong. My master and the Eternal True Gods are the same—they court the strong, entangled in interests.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her master’s single cry of “Fool,” Zhang Yunge finally understood: her master took her as a disciple not out of fate or compassion, but to curry favor with Luohe Shenwang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once she parted from Mo Yu Qingyan, her “master-disciple bond” with him faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huyang City had grown far more bustling. Many mid- and small-scale factions reacted swiftly, paying premium prices to buy up the city’s many cultivation caves. They understood—Huyang City would become the center of the surrounding twenty Chaos States.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One after another, flying vessels swiftly departed Huyang City, heading toward the surrounding Chaos States to begin taking control of major cities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng’s world force enveloped his territory, so the evacuations by Shiguo and Yugo proceeded orderly. The teams sent by Huyang City received each city without resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“With your strength, twenty Chaos States are still too small,” Bolu Shenwang said with a smile as he visited Luo Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have no desire to vie for territory,\" Luo Feng said. \"When Yu Shui asked me for help this time and offered twenty Chaos States outright, I still tried to take fewer. But that Lord of the Food Nation, the Tiankun—since he moved first, he must pay a price.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Luo He, you’re magnanimous—only ten Chaos States to aid Yu Shui’s lord and incur such a bitter enemy,\" Mo Lu Shenwang sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Origin Continent, any powerful being you summon to sever ties with the Food Nation would demand far more than ten Chaos States.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s another matter—I owe you an apology, Luo He,\" Mo Lu Shenwang said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is it?\" Luo Feng asked, surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Earlier, I took your disciple 'Mo Yu Qingyan’s' wife, Zhang Yunge, as my own. But it ended up breaking their marriage,\" Mo Lu Shenwang shook his head. \"I’ve already expelled Zhang Yunge from the mountain. Let her cool down and reflect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng smiled. \"If they’ve parted, it means they were never meant to be. I thank you, Mo Lu Shenwang—for helping them see each other more clearly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Lu Shenwang nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Hu Yangcheng, when Luo Feng met Mo Lu Shenwang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Xiangjiecheng, a mysterious guest arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng sensed a powerful aura flying straight into the Garrison Mansion, accompanied by an invisible voice carried through karmic ties: \"Luo Feng.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Calling my name directly? Luo Feng’s heart jolted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Few on the Origin Continent even know my name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng entered a courtyard and saw a stranger standing there—a tall figure with blue-scaled wings, turning to smile at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he looked at Luo Feng, the stranger’s face shifted, transforming into the likeness of Zuo Shan Ke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Luo Feng, it’s been a long time,\" Zuo Shan Ke smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of this episode)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this episode concluded, Fanqie will pause for two days to carefully plan the plot for Episode Five.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Planning a full episode’s storyline in just one day is too rushed.
