Chapter 254: God King 'Original Ancestor'

In a tavern within Huyang City, Hong sat alone in a small building, enjoying fine wine and delicious food.

"Only after coming to Origin Continent did I realize there's always something beyond, and how truly insignificant I am," Hong murmured with a smile, watching the many cultivators outside the window, piloting various flying secret treasures.

In their home region, the Original Universe, excluding Original Ancestor and Huge Axe, Hong was the 23rd True God in the human race, achieving it even slightly faster than Luo Feng.

Of course, Luo Feng intentionally remained at the Universe Master stage for an extended period to pursue a higher level of divine body, ultimately achieving the 'Perfect Divine Body'. Nevertheless, Hong's talent remained exceptionally brilliant within the human race.

Many seniors appeared to become True Gods earlier than Hong, but their cultivation time far exceeded his.

"Excluding Luo Feng and Original Ancestor, eleven members of the human race have successfully traversed the reincarnation path to Origin Continent, and I am the eleventh," Hong thought. Having only recently arrived on Origin Continent, he found everything novel and exciting.

The bustling Huyang City, with its diverse life forms and various cultivation schools, offered countless places for him to explore.

"Void True God, Eternal True God, Chaos Master, God King," Hong pondered. "God Kings are further divided into three realms, with the Emperors and Monarchs of the two ancient kingdoms comparable to the ultimate realm of God Kings."

"Above the ultimate realm of God Kings are the two nations' ancestors, the Eastern Extremity Domain Ancestor, Di Qing, and... the Milky Way Lord!"

"Third Brother, have you truly reached this level?" Hong felt his blood surge with excitement.

While many forces on Origin Continent were unaware, Hong, Peng Gong, City Lord of Chaos, Original Ancestor, and other human powerhouses knew very well that the Milky Way Lord was Luo Feng.

In their homeland, Luo Feng was known as the Milky Way Ancestor.

"Third Brother hasn't been on Origin Continent for long, yet he's already beyond the God King level?" Hong was deeply shocked. "Back when he was still a Universe Master, he was already invincible across the entire Universe Ocean. After becoming a True God, he resolved the calamity of the Beast Gods."

"He managed to become an Eternal True God even in the harsh cultivation environment of the Universe Ocean. Upon arriving at Origin Continent, he truly soared," Hong mused, a hint of sigh in his voice.

He had watched Luo Feng grow step by step from weakness.

Back then, he was the chief curator of the Limit Martial Arts Academy! Luo Feng was just a nascent martial artist...

Yet, Luo Feng gradually grew stronger, even helping him and Thunder God.

Hong acknowledged that his ability to become a Void True God and traverse reincarnation to Origin Continent, despite the harsh cultivation environment of the Original Universe, was primarily due to Luo Feng's assistance.

Without Luo Feng, the Original Ancestor might never have been freed! Among the entire human race, perhaps only the City Lord of Chaos had a slim hope of traversing reincarnation on their own.

In terms of talent and comprehension, Hong couldn't even rank among the top five within the human race.

"Coming to Origin Continent, I've realized that powerhouses are as numerous as clouds," Hong thought. "There are native geniuses of Origin Continent, countless geniuses born from small universes, and even geniuses who traversed reincarnation from three thousand Original Universes... Compared to them, I am much more ordinary."

For any member of the human race capable of traversing reincarnation to Origin Continent, Luo Feng had prepared the highest-grade cultivation resources, ensuring their smooth progress in cultivation.

However, Hong, Peng Gong, Darkness, and others understood that while their talents were exceptional in their homeland, on Origin Continent, even becoming an Eternal True God was a struggle for them!

"Hmm?" Hong suddenly received a message. He looked at it and couldn't help but show joy.

"Original Ancestor has become a God King!" Hong was quite excited.

Only upon arriving at Origin Continent could one truly see the vast difference in talent, with Original Ancestor's talent far surpassing that of other human powerhouses. Hong immediately stood up.

"God-Lord, was the meal to your satisfaction?" The waiter serving outside the small building asked with extreme reverence. Hong's strength might be negligible in Huyang City, but as a 'Core Disciple of the Saber River Sect,' merchants in Huyang City dared not treat him lightly.

"Yes." Hong paid the bill casually, then with a wave of his hand, he summoned his flying shuttle and swiftly headed straight for the Saber River Sect headquarters.

At the Saber River Sect headquarters, in Original Ancestor's cave abode.

At this moment, powerhouses from the human race were continuously arriving.

"Rumors outside say that the Milky Way Lord has an old servant, an ultimate realm Beast God," "That must be Elder Morosa," "Luo Feng has been in seclusion recently and doesn't meet guests. However, when we came to Origin Continent, Luo Feng personally guided each of us."

When the human powerhouses gathered, they naturally discussed Luo Feng and Morosa.

The Milky Way Lord, and his ultimate realm Beast God old servant... For the human powerhouses, it was simply too exciting. They had, quite literally, found the strongest possible backing.

"After eight hundred epochs of cultivation on Origin Continent, I've finally become a God King," Original Ancestor said with a smile, looking at his companions. "Of course, my ability to become a God King is largely thanks to Luo Feng's help."

"Simply relying on resources isn't enough to become a God King; talent and comprehension are more crucial," Luo Feng said with a smile from the side.

Among the eleven powerhouses who arrived later, only the City Lord of Chaos had become an Eternal True God; all the others were merely Void True Gods. This clearly showed the disparity in potential.

"Even achieving the first realm of God King felt quite difficult, and I encountered many confusions," Original Ancestor said, shaking his head. "The path of cultivation truly becomes increasingly arduous." The human powerhouses listened intently.

"You are all nominally part of my lineage," Original Ancestor said, looking at the human powerhouses. "Now that I've become a God King, I can also arrange some official positions for you. There won't be any opposition within the Saber River Sect if I do so now."

Having become a God King, Original Ancestor's status within the Saber River Sect naturally increased significantly.

"Cultivation isn't just about secluded meditation and comprehension," Original Ancestor stated. "Taking on official positions and dealing with affairs allows for more interaction with other powerhouses, which also benefits your cultivation."

"Yes," all the human powerhouses responded.

Luo Feng's gaze fell upon Huo Qiong, and he asked with a smile, "Huo Qiong, you've been on Origin Continent for over a hundred epochs. How is your cultivation progressing?"

"I still need some accumulation before reaching Eternal True God," Huo Qiong replied respectfully.

"Cultivate diligently. Once you become an Eternal True God, I can publicly accept you as a registered disciple. Only when you reach the Chaos realm can I publicly accept you as a direct disciple," Luo Feng said, looking at his disciple with anticipation.

If he were to forcibly accept a weak disciple as a registered or direct disciple, it would do more harm than good to Huo Qiong. For now, as an ordinary core disciple, he lacked no resources, and Luo Feng would even personally guide him.

"This disciple understands," Huo Qiong responded.

Seeing this, Original Ancestor also smiled and said, "If any of you have doubts about your cultivation, feel free to speak up. I, Luo Feng, and Elder Morosa can all provide guidance."

The human powerhouses immediately rejoiced and began asking questions one by one.

Original Ancestor, Luo Feng, and Morosa each began explaining in detail, according to their areas of expertise. Because their questions were generally concerning the Void True God and Eternal True God stages, it was easy to see the differences between Luo Feng, Original Ancestor, and Morosa. Luo Feng's fundamentals were the most solid. With special inheritances in cultivation, he repeatedly created high-level secret techniques from lower realms, possessing a profound understanding of fundamentals.

The gathering finally dispersed, leaving only Luo Feng and Original Ancestor.

"Listening to your insights, I gained much," Original Ancestor mused, "In terms of fundamentals, I can't compare to you."

"In the Boundless Space, I once fortuitously obtained several special inheritances, and under their guidance, my foundation was forged to be sufficiently solid," Luo Feng said with a smile. "Original Ancestor, I've also prepared a gift for you."

"Oh?" Original Ancestor was surprised.

Luo Feng flipped his hand and took out a silver token.

"This is a token to the treasure land, 'Boundless Space'," Luo Feng explained with a smile. "Not long ago, this very token was discovered within my Milky Way Divine Kingdom."

Tokens for the Boundless Space appear randomly across Origin Continent. Therefore, the wider one's territory, the easier it is to acquire such treasures.

"'Boundless Space' token?" Original Ancestor showed a look of surprise and delight. Given his status, he had access to many secret intelligence reports of the Saber River Sect and naturally knew about the treasure lands across Origin Continent.

The Boundless Space particularly valued willpower and the pioneering of Grand Paths.

"Original Ancestor, you cultivate along the paths of 'reality and illusion'," Luo Feng explained. "The real world has clear Great Paths of World Origin as reference. However, the 'illusory world' lacks such a path. Across the entire Origin Continent, perhaps only the treasure vault of the Boundless Space can provide inheritances helpful to you."

"Luo Feng, you've helped me too much," Original Ancestor said with deep gratitude.

Back then, Luo Feng himself had to exhaust every possible method to find opportunities. Now, he could easily pave the way for Original Ancestor.

"In terms of cultivating human powerhouses, my energy is limited. Often, I need you, Original Ancestor, to dedicate more effort," Luo Feng stated. "For me, and for the entire human race, the stronger your power, the better."

Original Ancestor looked at the token, feeling a surge of warmth in his heart.

He became a God King by comprehending a branch of the 'Great Path of World Origin'! With a detailed reference, breakthroughs were naturally much easier. However, on the illusory path, Original Ancestor encountered too many obstacles; he was even confused about its branches.

"This is a map of the Boundless Space," Luo Feng said, casually pointing. A stream of light flew towards Original Ancestor. "It also marks my current location. After you go to the Boundless Space, you can quickly meet up with me."

"Various forces are contending for the native creatures of the Boundless Space. My spiritual will has already covered twelve native creatures, which I can transfer to you," Luo Feng said.

"Good."

Holding the token, Original Ancestor immediately, with a single thought, used it to send a wisp of his consciousness remotely into the Boundless Space.

Luo Feng was quite expectant. In his view, given Original Ancestor's research into the 'illusory path,' he believed Original Ancestor would also excel in willpower, and pioneering new paths would earn rewards from the Boundless Space.

"With the Boundless Space, Original Ancestor should be able to go much further," Luo Feng thought.

He had provided all the help he could, but ultimately, a cultivator's final achievements depended on themselves.
