Swallowed Star - Chapter 1373

Chapter 1373
On board the silver battleship, he looked down at the vast continent in the distance . As the ship closed the distance via a long-distance teleportation, the faraway continent soon came clearly into view .


This vast continent was named Godly King Sector .
Technically speaking, there were five major continents in the World of Jin . The East Army, the West Army, the North Army, and the South Army each commanded a vast expanse of land and a part of the ocean . On the vast ocean, there were many islands scattered all over, and the biggest among them all was Godly King Sector . Furthermore, it was the place of residence of His Majesty the Godly King, so naturally, it had a unique status, even though its size was far from comparable to the other four continents . Because of its unique status, it was regarded as one of the five major continents .
"Godly King Sector . " Luo Feng looked down .
At first glance . The entire continent was covered with undulating mountains and lakes . The breathtaking view was quite a sight to behold .
"Huh?" Luo Feng felt a sudden jolt of shock .
Those countless rolling, undulating mountains looked like numerous law engravings . Even the lakes resembled nodes . Just by looking down at the entire Godly King Sector, Luo Feng could feel countless mysteries surging into his mind . Yet they were so mysterious that they were far beyond what Luo Feng could understand or comprehend at his current level .
"That's right . " Luo Feng nodded . "Based on the information I have gathered, Godly King Sector was, after all, the place of residence of Godly King . Normally, living souls of the World of Jin would not be allowed access in here . I have applied for a mission to receive a title . That's why I am allowed access within the period of this era . The place of residence of the Godly King… How could there not be special formation, secret techniques, and the like, enough to hold all underlings in shock and awe?"
Luo Feng laughed . Just like how many important grounds within the primal secret region would reverse time and space to plant dangers around the land, there would certainly be extraordinary traps if His Majesty the Godly King of the World of Jin was personally responsible for the dangers .
******
Just as Luo Feng was maneuvering the Boat of Mausoleum to maintain flying in the sky, a lone figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere on the vast land below . Soon, this figure was flying toward Luo Feng at high speed .
An angry command was transmitted: "On the grounds of Godly King Sector, trespassing is prohibited . Stop . "
The voice seemed to come in rolling waves . Suddenly, the surrounding time and space around the Boat of Mausoleum seemed to be isolated from the outside world . There was no way the ship could attempt to escape .
"A true god of void space . " Luo Feng was taken aback .
Luo Feng exited through the cabin doors of the Boat of Mausoleum and directed his introduction to a faraway spot . "I am Milky Way, a warrior from Python River Army of the East Army . Because I am assigned with a mission to receive a title, I have come to Godly King Sector . "

"Warrior Milky Way?"
The true god of void space took one look in the distance and carefully surveyed what he saw, then—
Hua!
Everything in the surrounding time and space resumed normality .
"Follow me," the true god of the void space beckoned .
Luo Feng put away the Boat of Mausoleum and flew over without further delay . Before this true god of void space, he entertained no other thoughts . After all, considering the power of a true god of void space, even if he put in his all, he would still be hunted down and killed . Of course, it would be wiser to be obedient .
As he flew over, Luo Feng took the chance to observe this true god of void space . He was a tribal warrior, meaning it was a humanoid life form with a dark, golden body that seemed to be cast in bronze . It had six ears and a pair of eyes that radiated red light . Even while standing amid the void space, it exuded an arrogant and domineering aura .
"Milky Way pays respect to you, my Lord . " Luo Feng bowed reverentially upon flying close .
"I am one of the guards of Godly King Sector . I am North Cang," the true god of void space said right away . "If you want to carry out your mission to receive a title, then do follow me . I will bring you to Godly King Valley . Without my lead, you will not be able to arrive at Godly King Valley . "
"Understood," Luo Feng replied .
Sou! Sou!
With North Cang, the guard of Godly King Sector, leading the way, both traveled via an extremely long-distance teleportation as they made their way to Godly King Valley .
"My Lord, North Cang . " The more Luo Feng gazed at the sight below, the more mysterious he found it . "I feel that… Godly King Sector continent seems to have law engravings everywhere . Does that mean there is danger everywhere?"
North Cang, the guard, took one look at Luo Feng and revealed a rare smile . "You are right . The Godly King Sector continent is indeed fraught with danger . This continent is, after all, beyond huge . If a large number of law masters and true gods were left free to roam about, even with quite a handful of guards, it will still be impossible to look out for every single one of them . But the moment they are caught trespassing, they will be in danger of imminent annihilation . This is the exact reason why, normally, no one will dare to enter the Godly King Sector . "
Luo Feng nodded . The information he had obtained also included a prohibition against trespassing . Death awaited all intruders .


"As for the law engravings found everywhere…" North Cang, the guard, sighed, "Because the whole of Godly King Sector, is actually a super automaton type true treasure that was created by His Majesty the Godly King . "
"Automaton type true treasure?" Luo Feng was dumbfounded .
A true treasure or a supreme piece of a valuable—one that could be regarded as an automaton type true treasure by true gods of void space of the World of Jin—would be something that other valuables within Universe Ocean would not be able to hold a candle to .
"Such a large automaton type true treasure?" Luo Feng was dumbfounded .
The length of the Universe Boat was around 100 million light years . This Godly King Sector continent was, after all, one of the five major continents . Even though it was barely comparable to the other four continents, its diameter was certainly more than one billion light years . How could such a majestic and resplendent continent turn out to be an automaton type true treasure?
"Haha! His Majesty the Godly King was most highly skilled in automaton type treasures . " North Cang, the guard, sighed as a great sense of pride swept through him . "This Godly King Sector continent was merely an experimental product that His Majesty the Godly Kind left behind… His Majesty still has a true Godly King Sector, and that true treasure followed him on his various expeditions as he roamed about endless worlds with ease . He was simply unrivaled . "

Luo Feng held his breath . Previously, he had seen that humanoid life form . Given that the humanoid life form was so massive, for it to be able to come up with such an outrageous automaton type true treasure was nothing out of the ordinary .
If that massive object really was His Majesty the Godly King, then why has he been reduced to this state? Even his World of Jin became easily accessible by universe masters and true gods from our Universe Ocean . Yet his people from the World of Jin will die the moment they step out?
Luo Feng felt that Universe Ocean and the World of Jin seemed to be at odds with one another . And Universe Ocean had the upper hand!
The living souls of Universe Ocean could enter World of Jin, but living souls from the World of Jin were unable to enter Universe Ocean!
******
Chatting while on the move, they soon arrived at their destination above a beautiful mountain valley .
"This is Godly King Valley . " North Cang, the guard, pointed down where there was a beautiful and incomparably tranquil valley . "Back when His Majesty the Godly King was here in Godly King Sector, this was where he often stayed in Godly King Valley . I have conveyed the news of your arrival . Let the guard of Godly King Valley know when you get there . They will not stop you . "
"Thank you, North Cang, my lord," Luo Feng said .
"Also, that nine-story tower!" North Cang, the guard, pointed at the highest building within Godly King Valley . "That is Wu Qi Tower . Move along . I hope you are able to complete the mission to receive a title… and make it out alive . "


Then, while shaking his head, North Cang teleported and disappeared .
Luo Feng looked at the nine-story tower and thought, Make it out alive? Not only must I make it out alive, but I must also find out why, since time immemorial, no law master has been able to make it to the top! I must find out what might stop me!
Luo Feng, ever so proud and confident, would not lose confidence just because of the dangers of a mission to receive a title . If he lacked the confidence, he would not have come .
Sou!
Luo Feng flew over without further ado!
*****
Security was very tight in the Godly King Valley . However, the guards knew that Luo Feng was entering as someone who was here to carry out a mission to receive a title, so they did not stop him . All they did was convey one message to him via voice transmission: "In Godly King Valley, flying is prohibited . "
Therefore, Luo Feng moved about on foot while in Godly King Valley . He walked over to Wu Qi Tower without delay .
Wu Qi Tower, taller than 1,000 light years, was the tallest building in Godly King Valley . At the bottom of this towering building, there were six figures .
One of the six figures entrenched over there—a single-horned beast—ordered in a low voice, "Warrior, come here . " This single-horned beast was the only true god in the area . The other five figures were law masters .
As Luo Feng made his way over, his eyes swept across his surroundings .
"You are the sixth law master of this batch," the single-horned beast growled . "According to the rules, every ten warriors must enter Wu Qi Tower together . Now, in the Wu Qi Tower, there is a total of three batches . You are the fourth, but first, you have to wait . You will enter when we have ten warriors here . "
Luo Feng nodded to indicate that he understood . On this grassland, the other five warriors were at ease . They were either standing, sitting, or even lying sprawled on the ground (that would be the beast warrior) .
"Python River army? You are from the East Army?" A warrior walked over . He was a tall, skinny, strange-looking warrior with a black beard . He was clad in battle armor that had bizarre beast patterns, and his helmet also had the pattern of a roaring beast head .
"You are from Sleeping Dragon army?" Luo Feng asked with a smile .
Sleeping Dragon Army was also a special army troop of the East Army .
"I am Xu Zhong from Sleeping Dragon Army!" said the tall, skinny warrior, introducing himself .
"I am Milky Way from Python River Army!" said Luo Feng, likewise introducing himself .
That tall, skinny warrior expressed his friendly intentions, but he lamented . "The other four warriors are all from other armies, not from our East Army . Fancy meeting someone from the East Army here . How delightful! Which major troop from the Python River Army are you from? This is my first time seeing you . "
"I am a new recruit," Luo Feng said casually .
The moment this was said, the tall, skinny warrior let out a trace of shock . Even the other four warriors who were not too far away expressed some interest .
"A new recruit?" A realization struck Xu Zhong . "No wonder I have never seen you before . You must have just joined within the past few eras . The number of special army troops in our East Army are not many to start with, and I know the majority of the outstanding ones . For you to be able to make it here to execute this mission for receiving a title, you must be someone with extremely strong powers . I believe that soon enough, you will make a name for yourself throughout the various special army troops of the East Army . "
Luo Feng laughed .
Entering Wu Qi Tower was extremely dangerous, and since they were all from the East Army, he knew he should get well-acquainted with this warrior . Perhaps this might be helpful to him when he was in Wu Qi Tower .
******
In the blink of an eye, almost six days had passed . Warriors had been arriving in succession .
"We have ten warriors!" growled the single-horned beast true god . "You all will be the fourth batch of warriors to enter Wu Qi Tower this time… A prior warning to you all: Presently, within Wu Qi Tower, more than half of the warriors from the third batch are dead . I hope I will be able to see you all again, walking out of here alive . "
The ten warriors were shocked . More than half from the previous batch were dead?
Even Luo Feng was astounded . Those who dared to come here would certainly be the absolute elites from the four armies .
Hong! Long! Long!
From afar, the towering doors were as tall as a few hundred light years . They were slowly starting to open up with a rumble . The towering doors radiated dazzling, colorful lights, which made it difficult for Luo Feng and company to look straight at it . An endless oppressive force was spreading out from within Wu Qi Tower .
"Go in," the single-horned beast true god said .
