After all, five cycles ago, the Luo He Shenjun proved his terrifying power by taking the lives of “Xue Yun Shenjun,” Yu Tianhu, and Yu Tianyi—unrivaled power below the Chaos Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Meng Hua greets the Shenjun.” The master of Meng Hua Tower, accompanied by the young musician “A Luo Ya,” came forward to greet him, her smile radiant. “Shenjun, your usual place?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The usual place.” Luo Feng smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This way.” The master of Meng Hua Tower led the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, they arrived at Lan Xing Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, Lan Xing Hall was used solely by the Luo He Shenjun; all other distinguished guests were directed elsewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Hei Butcher and his disciples followed Princess Yu Shuitianyu to the Capital, Luo Feng usually came to Meng Hua Tower even for meals. He rarely went anywhere else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shenjun, please.” The master of Meng Hua Tower personally poured the wine and sat beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re too kind, Master. Have you composed any new pieces recently?” Luo Feng asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Knowing you enjoy music, I’ve recently composed over a dozen new pieces,” the master replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I’ll be sure to listen carefully.” Luo Feng treated the master of Meng Hua Tower with great courtesy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On one hand, his close friend Sheng Tianyan had a bond with the master; he owed her some consideration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, since his spiritual will had broken through to the God-King level, within Hu Yang City, even with the Seven Emotions Refining Method, only the master’s music could truly immerse him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A Luo Ya, begin.” The master glanced over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng listened appreciatively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young musician A Luo Ya played with full focus; her musical illusion technique had grown far stronger than thirty cycles ago, yet since Luo Feng’s will had reached God-King level, her illusions affected him only slightly—now merely a simple entertainment during meals and drinks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A Luo Ya’s musical illusion has grown even more refined,” Luo Feng praised after she finished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Shenjun,” A Luo Ya bowed respectfully, though inwardly she felt a pang of disappointment. She could see that once, the Luo He Shenjun had been utterly immersed in her music, even moved to tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now? He merely listened with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m still too weak. I can no longer please the Shenjun,” A Luo Ya thought, though she had worked tirelessly. Her illusion lineage had long reached the peak of Void True God, yet she saw no hope of becoming an Eternal True God.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Luo Ya stepped aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The master of Meng Hua Tower sat there, petals floating around her, snowflakes naturally forming, and music spontaneously rising—using heaven, earth, and all things as instruments, her musical illusion carried a magical power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power of musical illusion at the Eternal True God realm was unimaginable. Luo Feng actively activated the Seven Emotions Refining Method, amplifying the illusion’s strength countless times over—only then could he truly sink into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the most important guest of Meng Hua Tower, the master long knew Luo Feng’s tastes; her newly composed pieces all stirred deep emotions within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just some music? Why does the Master like it so much?” Mo Luo Sa, eating and drinking heartily nearby, muttered under his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the dozen or so pieces ended,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Feng’s emotions slowly calmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good. These new pieces of yours are excellent,” Luo Feng praised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Shenjun,” the master of Meng Hua Tower said. After the deaths of Sheng Tianyan and Xue Yun, she had been terrified—but later discovered that the Luo He Shenjun had begun to enjoy her musical illusions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This thrilled her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She even began to doubt: “In the past, the Luo He Shenjun favored A Luo Ya’s illusions and ignored me for over twenty cycles. Yet shortly after Sheng Tianyan and Xue Yun died, he began to favor mine. Could he be pretending, like they did?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sheng Tianyan and Xue Yun’s pretense had shattered her confidence entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What power did the Luo He Shenjun possess? Unrivaled below the Chaos Realm. Could he truly be captivated by her illusions? She had no confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Luo He Shenjun is loyal and emotional. Perhaps he comes here because of his brotherly bond with Sheng Tianyan,” the master reasoned to herself. “Regardless, as long as outsiders believe… the Luo He Shenjun greatly enjoys my musical illusions, that’s enough.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The master of Meng Hua Tower deeply appreciated the Luo He Shenjun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To repay him, she went to great lengths, constantly composing new pieces for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Studying the Three Thousand Void Demon Beasts Diagram exhausts the spiritual will. Listening to musical illusions through the Seven Emotions Refining Method allows me to fully relax—it purifies the soul and washes away all fatigue.” Luo Feng still held the master of Meng Hua Tower in high regard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After long cultivation, one grows weary, numb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Seven Emotions Refining Method could restore the heart’s capacity for feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve fully comprehended the complete Demon Beasts Diagram,” Luo Feng thought. “Yet each time I study it, I gain new insights.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These five cycles had been the period of Luo Feng’s most rapid advancement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Constantly facing the “Origin of Life Dao,” Mo Luo Sa, who had long reached the Chaos Realm, frequently manifested the Principle of Destruction. Luo Feng’s prolonged study had accumulated depth far beyond what he possessed five cycles ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had long since completed his comprehension of the Demon Beasts Diagram; now he merely repeated his study.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He occasionally ventured into the Chaos Layer! He had captured over a dozen living beings like the “Silver Light Creatures,” which contained complete Chaos Laws. As his power grew, capturing them became easier. “Without these opportunities, five hundred cycles of cultivation wouldn’t match these five,” Luo Feng thought. The assistance of these several opportunities had been immense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just the Origin of Life Dao alone had propelled him forward dramatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My current realm accumulation still surpasses Xue Yun’s.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yet I still haven’t comprehended the Chaos Law!” Luo Feng frowned. “The Law path is indeed far harder than the Bloodline path.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yun, with his accumulation, had evolved his bloodline to the Chaos Realm through life-or-death battles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For me to comprehend the Chaos Law, I need far deeper accumulation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daytime was the busiest, most vibrant time in Hu Yang City, with countless cultivators entering through its various gates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flying vessel was flying above Hu Yang City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the flying vessel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nineteen figures stood upright, the leader a three-eyed man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three-eyed man, clad in a gray robe, gazed through the vessel’s walls at the vast Hu Yang City and smiled. “This is Hu Yang City—the eternal foundation of our Xin Ying Sect’s future.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Our Xin Ying Sect finally has a true foundation,” the other eighteen figures said, their emotions complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of them had once left Xin Ying Sect and settled elsewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, Xin Ying Sect sought to firmly establish a sect foundation. At the sect’s summons, and with secret support from two Chaos Dominators, these elite members had returned, forming the current eighteen Elders of Xin Ying Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eighteen Elders were each terrifyingly powerful—some even stronger than the Sect Master!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xin Ying Sect had suffered repeated declines and internal fractures. Though these returning elites from the Origin Continent had strengthened the sect overall, they also deepened its divisions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet on the matter of seizing a sect foundation, they were united.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the two hidden Chaos Dominators demanded they seize the foundation. Once those two Dominators achieved breakthroughs and no longer feared their enemies, they would return to the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No one in the Nine Jiang Chaos Region can stop us,” the three-eyed man declared. “Even if the Nine Jiang Marquis appears, Liu Yin Marquis will handle him personally. We only need to sweep away all Eternal True Gods.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even in our weakened state, sweeping through the Eternal True Gods of a Chaos Region is effortless,” said a figure formed of flowing water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve heard the most troublesome figure in Hu Yang City is the Luo He Shenjun,” said a blind man. “I’d like to test his strength myself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elder Xin Yan, the Luo He Shenjun is extremely powerful. Only you have the strength to challenge him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Without Elder Xin Yan, we’d have to rely on arrays to deal with the Luo He Shenjun.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other Elders spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all held a degree of fear toward this Elder Xin Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Xin Ying Sect was whole, he was its most formidable being. After the sect’s decline and fracture, he left alone, wandering the Origin Continent to hone himself. To bring him back, Liu Yin Marquis had personally sent a manifestation to visit him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All of you…” The three-eyed man’s gaze swept over the eighteen Elders. “Let Hu Yang City tremble in fear because of our Xin Ying Sect!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahahaha…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eighteen Elders all brimmed with battle lust, each commanding vast numbers of Eternal True Gods, Void True Gods, and True God disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zzzzzz~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flying vessel suddenly expanded to immense size, and around it appeared countless other massive vessels—in an instant, over a thousand large flying vessels hovered above Hu Yang City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This spectacle drew the attention of countless cultivators in Hu Yang City and the city’s authorities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dozens of super-large military artifacts materialized out of thin air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahahaha…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ve waited too long. Today has finally come.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Giant humanoid beings, colossal monstrous beasts, strange lakes, colossal plants, a massive golden eye, a hunched creature bearing a sword…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One hundred and thirty-nine super-large military artifacts appeared simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each of Xin Ying Sect’s military artifacts was piloted by at least ten Eternal True Gods and ten thousand Void True Gods—no True Gods at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hu Yang Army, by contrast, typically operated with one Eternal True God, ten thousand Void True Gods, and tens of millions of True Gods. Xin Ying Sect required no True Gods, instead adding multiple Eternal True Gods—making their power even greater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the thousand large flying vessels, countless disciples were present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, not long ago, they had been a large sect with three Chaos Dominators. After five cycles of gathering scattered disciples, they now possessed nearly forty percent of their former strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.” Groups of Hu Yang Guards arrived through void travel, staring in dread at the one hundred and thirty-nine massive military artifacts and the towering flying vessels—each vessel radiated terrifying energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is your purpose in coming to Hu Yang City?” asked a Hu Yang Guard commander, tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1806,"2026-06-20T20:44:59.403Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","72dbf9647ef0726b96e30cd6742e9128fb5fcaa162ce8527a809cbe04e8e38bd","devouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-chapter-78","devouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-chapter-76",340,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdevouring-the-starry-sky-2-the-origin-continent-cover.jpg"]
