The depth of Tianhe was equally endless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deep within Tianhe floated a flying vessel, inside which sat a figure covered in fur, meditating cross-legged, naturally absorbing Tianhe’s waters into his body to nourish his primordial bloodline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph. Tiankun and the others still won’t give up, still blocking me on the periphery,” Yu Shui Guozhu sneered. “But they lack the courage to enter the deepest reaches of Tianhe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tiankun Guozhu’s faction had six formidable beings, who searched for Tianhe’s treasures, cultivated within Tianhe, and simultaneously sealed off key zones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Shui Guozhu was also patient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even a hundred centuries, but even a thousand centuries—Yu Shui Guozhu had the patience to wait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just endure. If I advance further, and awaken the ‘Ultimate Realm Secret Art’ from my primordial bloodline—I’ll be able to handle all six of them myself.” Yu Shui Guozhu longed for advancement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet they all knew: after hundreds of millions of centuries, no one had advanced. To break through? How difficult!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Yu Shui! The Blue Duo Lord of the Thunder Ancient Kingdom has entered Tianhe! Flee immediately!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon receiving the message, Yu Shui Guozhu’s heart trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Yu Shui Guozhu retracted his flying vessel and plunged unhesitatingly into Tianhe’s depths!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom—boom—boom~~~” The deeper into Tianhe, the greater the dangers, the more terrifying the hidden threats—but Yu Shui Guozhu now charged recklessly into the depths!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, he spotted an underwater mountain range. Yu Shui Guozhu immediately moved toward it—but as he drew closer, invisible ripples eroded his body, causing it to rapidly disintegrate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go.” Yu Shui Guozhu hurled the divine king-level secret treasure, his flying vessel, away. Inside it lay all his accumulated gains from countless eons in Tianhe. The vessel withstood the mountain range’s ripples—clearly far more resilient than his own body—and finally landed within the mountains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Shui Guozhu immediately turned and fled toward another direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He fled frantically, yet after only a dozen breaths, he sensed a terrifying force locking onto him from afar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Blue Duo Lord.” Yu Shui Guozhu looked up. The terrifying force had locked onto him—and he saw its source: a towering figure clad in aquamarine robes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His entire body was covered in blue-white scales, with three scaled tails. His features were holy, his gaze cold, gazing remotely at Yu Shui Guozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through karmic ties, he could easily lock onto Yu Shui Guozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even across vast distances, within Tianhe’s domain, the Blue Duo Lord merely cast a glance—and boundless power descended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shhh—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Shui Guozhu’s body was tough, teeming with vitality, constantly absorbing Tianhe’s waters to sustain himself—but under the boundless might, over half of him was instantly annihilated. In less than a breath, his body was utterly erased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are all the hidden treasures secured?” The Blue Duo Lord glanced once, then continued hunting other targets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianhe appeared immense, yet truly safe zones were few. The Blue Duo Lord patrolled with intimate familiarity, determined to survey nearly every safe zone within Tianhe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My Lord.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Greetings, Blue Duo Lord.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within Tianhe, every ancient divine king who sensed this Lord’s power bowed in profound reverence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither of the two ancient kingdoms’ imperial clan divine kings were targeted; even the guest divine kings of the Thunder Ancient Kingdom were spared! As for the rest? Any other divine king the Blue Duo Lord discovered—he eradicated without mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s the Blue Duo Lord of the Thunder Ancient Kingdom!” Tiankun Guozhu received the news and, with his companions, fled frantically into the depths of Tianhe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tiankun Guozhu was a guest of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom! The Blue Duo Lord would not spare him either!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only moments passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Blue Duo Lord approached near Tiankun Guozhu; his invisible domain had already locked onto him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s over.” When Tiankun Guozhu felt the terrifying force lock onto him, he knew it was over—he knew even begging would be useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tiankun Guozhu’s body was likewise erased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among Tianhe’s ancient divine kings—mostly scattered ones and Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom’s guest divine kings—over ninety percent had their true bodies destroyed under the Blue Duo Lord’s patrol. Only a handful survived, either through exceptional escape ability or by exploiting Tianhe’s environment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this patrol, both Yu Shui Guozhu and Tiankun Guozhu’s true bodies perished. Of Tiankun Guozhu’s five companions, four died; only one barely escaped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Yang City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?” Luo Feng also received the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No choice—terrible luck. I ran into the Blue Duo Lord of the Thunder Ancient Kingdom!” Yu Shui Guozhu sent a message.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng had never been to Tianhe: “I heard Tianhe’s environment greatly aids water-based forces but repels other Dao paths. Only the two ancient kingdoms have ‘Di Xuan’ and ‘Blue Duo Lord’ with water-based primordial bloodlines, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, only those two. They’ve accumulated deeply and rarely come to Tianhe anymore.” Yu Shui Guozhu sighed. “But whenever they do, they patrol once—killing all except the imperial clans and their own kingdom’s guest divine kings.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng nodded: “Tianhe’s environment is still hard to hide in.” In Dream Realm, there were countless spaces, each existing independently—only if you shared the same space could you be found. Safety was naturally far higher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Infinite Space, one must forge one’s own Dao path—even emperors entering had the same flesh, their strength greatly weakened. Scattered divine kings were naturally far safer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many treasure lands offered some protection to the weak, but the strength varied. Tianhe’s flaw was that safe zones were easily discovered, while the perilous depths… were hard to enter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Misfortune and fortune are intertwined,” Yu Shui Guozhu sent a message. “Tianhe is a treasure land for us, usually without great danger! Its dangers come from other cultivators. Encountering an Emperor or Lord? Just bad luck.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is there anything I can help you with?” Luo Feng asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need. Tiankun Guozhu’s true body was also destroyed.” Yu Shui Guozhu chuckled in his message. “He won’t dare cause trouble again. I sense six of my enemies—five of them lost their true bodies this time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone suffered heavy losses; Yu Shui Guozhu now felt balanced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng sighed inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single Lord’s patrol swept everything in its path!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom had thirteen Emperors; Thunder Ancient Kingdom had nine Lords!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among scattered cultivators, only Wanjie Guozhu and Jie Shou possessed Ultimate Realm status; only five others—like Wind Capital Empress and Mother River Lord—could rival Emperor-level strength. Over half of these were allied with the two ancient kingdoms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though scattered cultivators were numerous, their top-tier strength was vastly inferior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was still because the ancestral figures of the two kingdoms and the Eastern Pole Domain Ancestor rarely intervened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No wonder scattered cultivators hide in shadows, even joining forces established by the three alien races,” Luo Feng sighed. With the guidance of those three alien races, scattered cultivators could compete with the two ancient kingdoms for resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One more thing to be grateful for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The greatest rivals of these Emperors and Lords were each other—giving scattered cultivators breathing room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Treasure land ‘Infinite Space’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On a vast, desolate lake floated a small island, where one of Luo Feng’s avatars cultivated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Mo Luo Sa reached Divine King Second Layer, he could manifest the full Destruction Primordial Dao! Luo Feng’s cultivation of the ‘Destruction Primordial Dao’ entered a period of explosive growth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All past accumulations were undergoing transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shhh.” In the center of Luo Feng’s palm appeared a dark void, dense beyond comprehension, yet brimming with life’s resilience. Within the void, forces spun, countless refined dark blade lights swirling and converging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Five Veins United.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Void Unextinguished Light.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng watched as a blade light, nearly solid, formed within the dark void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power of this blade light was terrifying—far more potent than the strongest technique Luo Feng had ever used against Mo Luo Sa, even when channeling one-third of a world-life entity with Blood Shadow Blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Void Unextinguished Light is now fully perfected.” Luo Feng stared at the blade light forming in his palm, disbelief rising. “My first Secret Art of Divine King Second Layer… is a Life-Death Dao art.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Void Unextinguished Light was a technique Luo Feng had long ago conceived in prototype, fusing the Destruction Dao’s “Sky-Splitting Vein, Dark Sky Vein, Chaos Sky Vein” with the Life Dao’s “Source of Life, Life Spirit”—five branches total. As Luo Feng’s realm accumulated, these five branches had steadily merged and refined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just now, without realizing it, Luo Feng had fully fused all five branches into this technique: Void Unextinguished Light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Techniques Luo Feng was studying—‘Twenty-Four Forms’ and ‘Unification Secret Art’—were theoretically the ultimate limits achievable at Divine King First Layer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Void Unextinguished Light now was a fusion of five branches—though these branches came from two Dào paths!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Life, Destruction, Life-Death… I’ve created my first Divine King Second Layer Secret Art from Life-Death Dao.” Luo Feng felt a pang of wonder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, creating a Secret Art did not mean one had reached Divine King Second Layer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True breakthrough required complete mastery of the Dao’s essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like Di Xu Emperor and Wu Xin Divine King—they had, through fortune, created Ultimate Realm Secret Arts! But they were still far from fully comprehending the complete Dao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, as a technique with all five branches fully fused, Void Unextinguished Light was already extraordinary among Divine King Second Layer cultivators—after all, Life Primordial Dao and Destruction Primordial Dao each had only six branches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Mo Luo Sa’s current techniques did not match the subtlety of Luo Feng’s Void Unextinguished Light!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Life-Death…” Luo Feng sat cross-legged on the grass, murmuring to himself, as sudden insight flashed through his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first time he had awakened a Divine King Second Layer Life-Death Secret Art, Luo Feng’s understanding of Life-Death Dao underwent a transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One by one, ‘Life-Death Dao branches’ took shape within Luo Feng’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1665,"2026-06-20T20:45:00.697Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","e744cb8fba8b3bddf01a4a3dd8a42abf5e7109ca027e089b60370a21bf63bee3","devouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-chapter-207","devouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-chapter-205",340,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdevouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-cover.jpg"]
