Chapter 247: Sixth Volume: The Third Force of the Origin Continent

The stronger his power, the more beings Luo Feng was willing to protect.

Of these 729 Chaos States, some regions were the back gardens of the Thunder Ancient Kingdom, others were buffer zones between the two Ancient Kingdoms, the Myriad Realms Kingdom, and the Heavenly Wood Kingdom. How could Tie Xiao Mo Jun and Hei Jiu Lao Zu have long plagued these lands without the tacit approval of the Emperors and Monarchs of the two Ancient Kingdoms?

"By seizing this territory, I've finally stepped into the open," Luo Feng thought. "With a public identity, I can more easily conduct trade with the two Ancient Kingdoms and the three alien races."

Though he had killed Di Yuan, Luo Feng still wished to trade with the Yan Feng Ancient Kingdom.

He believed the Yan Feng Ancient Kingdom would handle their relationship rationally.

If the Yan Feng Ancient Kingdom truly went mad… Luo Feng had no objection to striking again and making them see sense!

"Master, how do we seize this territory?" Mo Luo Sa looked at his master.

"Mo Luo Sa, conquering these 729 Chaos States rests entirely on you," Luo Feng smiled at Mo Luo Sa.

"Me?" Mo Luo Sa pondered, his eyes gleaming. "Master, these 729 Chaos States involve too many factions—can I really wage war alone?"

"As my servant, you can unleash your peak Jie Shou power," Luo Feng said. "As a peak Jie Shou, is seizing this region a problem?"

Mo Luo Sa felt his blood boiling, his eyes tinged with crimson as he exclaimed excitedly: "After waiting so long, my master finally allows me to unleash the true power of a Jie Shou!"

He had held back too long, far too long.

Luo Feng's eyelid twitched and he warned: "Mo Luo Sa, you know what to do—and what not to do."

He intended to rule these 729 Chaos States, not ignite a cataclysmic holocaust.

"Rest assured, Master despises evil—I know exactly what to do," Mo Luo Sa replied. "Shall I begin now?"

Luo Feng nodded.

Though in raw power, he himself—having comprehended the Dao of Birth and Death and wielding the Star Tower—was stronger.

But in terms of diverse techniques, an Ultimate-level Jie Shou possessed far more.

…

Nightfall. Mo Luo Sa hovered high above, gazing down at the vast world.

His gaze was distant; desires rooted in his soul stirred restlessly.

"I've held back too long. Now, with my master's permission, I can finally indulge a little," Mo Luo Sa knew his actions must remain within the boundaries set by his master.

"Master despises evil—those burdened with great sins, I kill, and Master won't object."

"Hehehe, you're next."

"Delicious meals, I'm coming."

Mo Luo Sa was far superior to Luo Feng in locking onto targets—in an instant, he had identified every Divine King within the 729 Chaos States.

This was normal for a Ultimate-level being.

…

The third-rate kingdom of Fenglang Kingdom was an obscure small state nestled in the buffer zone between the Myriad Realms Kingdom and the Thunder Ancient Kingdom. The central narrow belt Luo Feng had designated happened to include Fenglang Kingdom.

"With Tie Xiao Mo Jun's territory in chaos, I hope it doesn't spill over to me," Fenglang's monarch sat upon his throne, swallowing a crystal sphere whole—inside it imprisoned over a hundred million lives.

Fenglang's monarch was a guest minister of the Thunder Ancient Kingdom and possessed the Hunyuan bloodline; this third-rate kingdom supplied him with sufficient blood offerings.

For someone like him, ruling a peripheral small kingdom, consuming blood offerings within his own borders in moderation was already extremely low-key!

"I'm a guest minister of the Thunder Ancient Kingdom, and Ling You Zun Zhu of the Myriad Realms Kingdom is my close friend," Fenglang's monarch believed his position was secure no matter how the outside world changed.

Suddenly, an invisible force enveloped him.

Fenglang's monarch stared in shock around him—only to find himself inside a dark void, its edges wrinkled.

"Spare—" Fenglang's monarch barely opened his mouth when his body and soul melted away entirely, becoming part of the dark void.

"This Fenglang monarch cultivated the Hunyuan bloodline, yet he's still too weak. Next," Mo Luo Sa murmured with a smile. Divine King-level food, especially when consumed whole—body and soul together—was too rare.

And so…

One offering after another.

Mo Luo Sa treasured his food, taking them one by one.

Even Hei Jiu Lao Zu fell to Mo Luo Sa's consumption.

"How is this possible?" Hei Jiu Lao Zu was stunned. In a hidden palace, his avatar was suddenly devoured! His Hunyuan bloodline carried deadly toxins—even Ultimate-level beings suffered damage from it.

Yet now, someone had simply swallowed him whole?

Instantly, his avatar vanished; his other avatars across the world were likewise obliterated by an invisible curse, leaving only his avatar on Thunder Mountain alive.

"Last time it was the black-robed warrior's mental assault—now I'm devoured and cursed?" Hei Jiu Lao Zu felt humiliated. He was a famed figure, yet only his avatar on Thunder Mountain had barely survived.

…

Mo Luo Sa devoured nine Divine Kings burdened with great sins—only Hei Jiu Lao Zu survived. The other eight Divine Kings, no matter their survival techniques, could not escape the peak Jie Shou's assassination.

"What?"

"Eight Divine Kings died in succession?"

"Two Divine Kings of the Second Layer, six of the First Layer? I wonder if any of them reincarnated."

Origin Continent had only a few hundred Divine Kings total—eight dying in succession sent shivers through the others, filling them with dread and sorrow, fearing they'd be next!

"Time for the next step," Mo Luo Sa chuckled after consuming several sinful Divine Kings. In an instant, he split into twenty-three avatars, each heading toward other Divine Kings lingering in this territory.

Yunlan Kingdom, capital city.

"The Divine Kings in neighboring kingdoms have been dying one after another…" Yunlan Divine King felt uneasy. Suddenly, darkness engulfed the entire capital—a stout old man appeared, gazing at her coldly.

Beneath the invisible aura, Yunlan Divine King felt her own insignificance!

This old man could kill her with a single thought.

Yunlan Divine King sensed, deep within her soul, that this was the most terrifying being she had ever encountered. "Your Excellency," she immediately bowed deeply, posture subservient.

"My master intends to rule the surrounding 729 Chaos States—including your Yunlan Kingdom," Mo Luo Sa looked at Yunlan Divine King. "Your sins are light—you may live."

Yunlan Divine King instantly understood.

The eight dead Divine Kings had indeed been deeply sinful.

"You have two choices: one, pledge allegiance to my master. Two, leave immediately," Mo Luo Sa said to Yunlan Divine King.

"May I ask, who is your master?" Yunlan Divine King asked, tense yet excited.

She felt she had encountered a truly terrifying entity of the Origin Continent!

This old man was the strongest being she had ever seen—and yet he was merely a servant. How terrifying must his master be?

"Not long ago, my master killed Di Yuan," Mo Luo Sa said.

Yunlan Divine King knelt without hesitation, bowing with utmost reverence: "Yunlan pledges loyalty."

Throughout the long history of the Origin Continent, only one mysterious being had ever slain an Emperor of the Yan Feng Ancient Kingdom. And most importantly… the Yan Feng Ancient Kingdom had not retaliated. They had endured it.

"Good," Mo Luo Sa nodded.

Original text continues!

Similar dialogues unfolded simultaneously at the other twenty-two locations.

These Divine Kings had either retired here, harbored ambitions, or been dispatched…

But upon encountering Mo Luo Sa's avatar, his aura fused with the Dao of Destruction—such overwhelming terror made even Second-Layer Divine Kings tremble, with not a shred of resistance in their hearts.

Most of these Divine Kings departed; a few chose to pledge allegiance.

Mo Luo Sa did not forbid the spread of news—the departing Divine Kings quickly disseminated the information.

"The Black Robe intends to seize the 729 Chaos States?"

"His servant is suspected to be Ultimate-level?"

These two pieces of intelligence spread rapidly; all factions waited for the two Ancient Kingdoms' reactions! After all, these 729 Chaos States were dangerously close to the two Ancient Kingdoms, with many regions bordering them directly.

And such a vast territory now loomed right against the two Ancient Kingdoms.

Would the two Ancient Kingdoms allow such a massive power to emerge?

Yet strangely, the two Ancient Kingdoms remained utterly silent, taking no action.

…

The 729 Chaos States were rapidly integrating. In the central region of the territory, a major city was selected as the foundation for massive expansion, destined to become the future "capital."

"Follow me," Mo Luo Sa walked ahead, nine Divine Kings trailing beside him.

These nine Divine Kings had chosen to follow the Black Robe.

The Black Robe, the Golden Masked Warrior, had clashed fiercely with the Yan Feng Ancient Kingdom—following him carried risk, but also immense opportunity!

Moments later.

Deep within the palace, they saw a silver-robed figure standing there.

"Silver robe?" The nine Divine Kings were puzzled.

"Master," Mo Luo Sa bowed respectfully.

"We pay homage to our Sovereign," the nine Divine Kings also bowed deeply.

Luo Feng turned his head, clad in silver robes, wearing a golden mask, gazing down upon them calmly: "You all know I intend to rule these 729 territories and establish a Divine Kingdom. This kingdom shall be named 'Silver River.'"

"Silver River Divine Kingdom?"

"Silver River…"

They heard the name for the first time and immediately praised it.

"Congratulations, Sovereign! From this day forward, the Silver River Divine Kingdom shall stand equal to the two Ancient Kingdoms!"

"The two Ancient Kingdoms are decaying; our Silver River Divine Kingdom is rising!"

These Divine Kings praised enthusiastically, their hopes for the future kindled.

Luo Feng watched this scene.

Naming the Silver River Divine Kingdom was merely the first step. In the near future, Luo Feng would fully reveal his identity.

"With the Silver River Divine Kingdom established, the powerful humans from my homeland should all guess my identity," Luo Feng thought.

"BOOM~~~"

Luo Feng activated the Star Tower within his body with a single thought, naturally affecting an infinite expanse.

The lifeforms of this world cannot reflect the narrow, ribbon-like expanse of the 'Galactic Divine Realm'—but with the aid of the Star Tower, the domain's reach could be vastly greater, sufficient to encompass the entire Galactic Divine Realm.

"SWISH SWISH SWISH~~~~"

Above each of the 729 Chaos States, faint crimson rivers appeared, causing countless beings to look upward.

"From today, the Galactic Divine Realm is established."

"The range of the Blood River Domain is the range of the Divine Realm."

Through the endless Blood River, a vast, thunderous sound spread, echoing across every corner of the 729 Chaos States.

This terrifying might made the ancient beings of the Origin Continent tremble in their hearts!

They realized...

The third force of the Origin Continent was born from this moment.
