Chapter 317, Still Alive
Virtual Universe, Nine Star Bay.
When Hong rushed over, he was startled to see Xu Xin, who was in tears and looked haggard, and Thor, who was pale and frowning.
Thor recently finished his external assignment and returned to Chaos City to comprehend the laws in preparation for breaking through to the Realm Lord level. He is currently not in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom. As for himself, he has spent the last few hundred years after breaking through to the Realm Lord level training in the Eighteen Star Domains Prison. If it weren't for Xu Xin sending him several emails in succession, he might not have been willing to come over.
"What happened?" Hong, still unaware of what had transpired, asked. Had someone taken advantage of their absence to bully Xu Xin and the others? But Luo Feng was still there. Could it be...?
"Brother Hong, something's happened to the third brother." The white-robed Thor, with his brows furrowed, spoke first.
Hong, dressed in black, suddenly narrowed his eyes.
Suppressing the turmoil in his mind, Hong said, "What happened? Tell me slowly."
"The sky won't fall down."
When Hong said this, he used a bit of illusion magic. Even if Xu Xin had the Heart of Eternity, it was only because Luo Feng had forcibly pushed her to the cosmic level. How could she possibly withstand Hong's illusion magic?
Hong's illusion calmed Xu Xin down considerably. Although she still looked haggard, she was able to clearly express what had happened.
Just a few days ago, Xu Xin received an email from her husband, which included everyday moments, affection, memories of the past, and his final entrustment.
He said he would return in the distant future, perhaps ten thousand years, or even a million years.
After all, for a powerful figure like the Master of Shadow Blades, even a small delay could last for millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of years.
Hong had already become a disciple of the Mingwu Venerable Master, and also had the Nightfall King as his senior brother, so he naturally knew what Luo Feng meant by "coming back" in the email.
This is a fallen creature that has been resurrected!
Why was Luo Feng convinced he was doomed? He was merely training on the outer battlefield! He had become a disciple of the Shadow Blade Master, a great being, and had many extremely powerful senior brothers. He believed that if Luo Feng's life were in danger, he would surely use the life-saving methods given to him by the Shadow Blade Master!
The battlefield outside the domain can hold off the Venerable King, but it absolutely cannot hold off a great being like the Shadow Blade Master!
"I remember the third brother has a soul servant, isn't it Baikaro from the Blade Clan?" These thoughts flashed through Hong's mind for only a moment before he spoke, pointing directly in one direction, "If something happens to the third brother, something will definitely happen to Baikaro too!"
"Yes, and Baikaro too!" As if sunlight pierced through the dark clouds, Xu Xin suddenly remembered Baikaro, the captain of the guard who was still on Earth and a world lord-level powerhouse.
Baikaro is fine!
The information was immediately confirmed through the virtual universe connection, and Xu Xin's gloom dissipated considerably.
"I can't contact the Shadow Blade Master, the teacher of the third brother, but I can ask my teacher to inquire about the situation," Hong said, both to comfort Thor and to reassure Xu Xin.
"Thank you for your trouble." Even as a core member of the Virtual Universe Company, Xu Xin had no access to powerhouses at the level of the King. She didn't know how strong her husband's teacher was, but he was definitely much stronger than the King.
"It's alright, we're all brothers."
In the virtual universe, Hong told his teacher on the throne about everything and asked him to inquire with Luo Feng's teacher, the Shadow Blade Master, about Luo Feng's current situation.
During the foggy time, Hong, with his own state of mind, felt that his teacher, whose state of mind had always been superior to his own, suddenly froze for a moment.
"Can."
A calm and indifferent voice came from the throne.
In the primordial universe, on the outer battlefield Star Tower, the Mingwu Venerable, clad in dark red armor, suddenly appeared. The White Phoenix Palace Master had already gone to the newly conquered territory to oversee the border and suppress the alien races. Now, the one overseeing the outer battlefield was another cosmic overlord, the Fengtian Venerable, an extremely ancient overlord and also the personal disciple of the Dragon Lord.
Ripples spread through the space, and Ye Muxuan, dressed in a simple white robe, appeared here. No one could sense the appearance of the two universe masters.
"It seems it's Luo Feng this time." Standing side by side, the two cosmic lords looked at the towering, bronze-colored, massive tower, and Ye Muxuan suddenly spoke.
"I originally thought Hong Geng had a chance," said Master Mingwu.
In fact, back on Earth, the broken metal plate that Mingyu had thrown away ended up in Xu Xin's hands, and then in Luo Feng's hands. Both of them knew this, and thus knew the outcome.
The reason he uttered those words now was simply because returning to this familiar place had stirred up deep memories in his mind.
Without cultivating the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, one is not qualified to claim the Star Tower as their master. Ordinary Earthlings born from the original soul might be qualified to use it, but the master of the Star Tower must definitely be someone who has cultivated the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual.
Or rather, without cultivating the Nine Tribulations Secret Scripture, one cannot sense the Star Tower's summons. This is the Mountain-Sitting Guest's calculation; once any powerful being from the primordial universe enters the game, regardless of their strength, no one can break free.
Perhaps Ye Muxuan could, because he doesn't enter the game. If you don't enter the chessboard, you're not a piece, nor are you the one playing the game; you're just an observer, so naturally you don't need to break the game.
"How many years did you persist back then?" Ye Muxuan, dressed in a simple white robe, looked at Mingyu and asked.
"More than three thousand years, I suppose." The Mingwu Venerable, clad in dark red armor, spoke. Even after his resurrection, this memory remained etched in his heart and unforgettable. "I remember Puti saying that the first candidate persisted for more than two thousand years."
"It's a pity he's a realm lord and can't be resurrected." Ye Muxuan, dressed in a simple white robe, spoke with a hint of regret in his voice. "Otherwise, I would really like to know, if neither of you had recognized the Star Tower as your master, whose realm would have been higher in the future?"
The first candidate for the Mountain and Sea Realm was a Realm Lord, who lived hundreds of billions of years ago. Even if he was the Lord of the Universe, he could not resurrect a Realm Lord who had vanished into the river of time.
"How many years has Luo Feng persisted here?" It's impossible to compare him to someone who has already perished, not even by reversing time.
"It's been over six thousand years, but his aura is still here." Ye Muxuan, dressed in a simple white robe, spoke. "The level of his understanding of the laws he displayed in the virtual universe some time ago should be enough to pass the twentieth level of the Bridge to Heaven."
More than six thousand years ago.
The Mingwu Venerable, clad in dark red armor, paused for a moment.
What a terrifying guy.
However, even without the Star Tower, he would not worry about his future.
The Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, the Star Tower, the leader of the Origin Star—this is a path, the path arranged by the Mountain-Sitting Guest, but the path I've forged myself is also a path! A broad and prosperous road ahead!
"Go and talk to Luo Feng's family. I have some inspiration, and perhaps we should take that step." After looking at the Star Tower carefully for a while, Lord Mingwu spoke, and with the ripples in the space, his dark red figure disappeared into the outer battlefield.
"Okay." The dark red figure disappeared, but Ye Muxuan's voice still traveled through the layers of space.
An email was sent to Xu Xin. It contained nothing fancy, just a single sentence: "It has been confirmed that Luo Feng is in seclusion and is still alive. He has not perished."
