Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

Moyu Hu led his three brothers to the front gate of Luo Feng's Cave Dwelling.

"The Primal Chaos Armor Sector's cave mansion!"

The eyes of the three brothers from the Moyu Family were fervid. This area was legendary throughout Huyang City, neighboring the Primal Chaos Ruins. Those residing here were among the most terrifying beings in Huyang City, and in the past, the three brothers would not have dared to come near.

"Father is indeed remarkable, to have secured such an opportunity for us! This is the greatest opportunity of my life, I must seize it even if it means risking my life!" The eldest of the Moyu brothers was the most burly, with eyes sharp as knives.

"Both my eldest brother and youngest brother have higher talent than me. With Supreme Lord Luo He choosing one among the three of us, my hopes are the slimmest," thought the second Moyu brother, yet he hadn't given up, "I must strive with all my might!"

"The eldest brother has the greatest talent," mused the youngest Moyu brother. "It's hard to know how the eternal true god will select his disciple."

As the three brothers harbored their own thoughts, Moyu Hu had already stepped forward and lightly tapped on the door, sending an invisible ripple spreading.

Soon, the honest-looking Morosa opened the door and glanced at them, "Come in."

"Yes," Moyu Hu responded with a very humble attitude, leading the three children into the cave mansion.

As the three brothers entered such a vast and expansive cave mansion, they felt nervous. The chaos aura here was incredibly rich, almost to the point where Primal Chaos Stones could condense from it.

Inside the pavilion.

"We pay our respects to the Supreme," respectfully saluted Moyu Hu, while the three brothers knelt down immediately.

"Rise," said Luo Feng, holding a book that contained the information on the three Moyu brothers.

"Among you three brothers, the eldest is at the Ninth Realm of True God, and the other two are at the Sixth Realm of True God," Luo Feng spoke, "However, in my eyes, the Realm of True God has no significance."

The hearts of the three brothers trembled.

"I will choose one of you to be my servant," Luo Feng declared, "The time of servitude will be very, very long. Only by passing my trials may you become my disciple."

"We understand," the eldest 'Moyu LieFeng', the second 'Moyu Qingyan', and the youngest 'Moyu Liuxing' all responded with utmost respect.

"I'll make the conditions clear beforehand. Those who are unwilling to be servants can speak up now, but once you become my servant, there will be no chance for regrets," stated Luo Feng.

The three brothers listened attentively.

Luo Feng said leisurely, "Being my servant is dangerous! There will be a number of eternal true gods who want to kill me in the future, and you may get involved. I can't guarantee I'll always be able to protect you. So as my servant, you must be prepared for death!"

The eldest brother, Moyu LieFeng, said, "Since we follow the Supreme, we naturally bear our own fortunes and misfortunes."

"We do not fear death; we only fear not having the chance," added the second brother, Moyu Qingyan.

The youngest brother, Moyu Liuxing, hesitated before inquiring, "May I ask the Supreme, will the Supreme's eternal true god enemies be numerous?"

"Numerous, and they will be unscrupulous," Luo Feng replied with a smile.

In his assassination missions, Luo Feng was most eager to deal with the covert leader of Shi Kingdom, 'Blood Light', known for his violent and brutal methods, and his identity piqued Luo Feng's interest in hunting. The only problem was that he did not know Blood Light's whereabouts.

After all, even with the Five Great Families of the city owner's mansion putting forth all their efforts against Shi Kingdom's infiltrating powers, wanting to kill Blood Light, he remained cautious and well-hidden, making it difficult for Luo Feng to find an opportunity.

Having decided to take on some assassination missions, Luo Feng knew that enemies in the future would not be few.

Of course, he and Morosa, one in the light and one in the dark, would do their best to ensure the safety of their servants.

"Father, I give up," said Moyu Liuxing.

Moyu Hu looked at his youngest son, but wasn't surprised. His youngest son was born latest when he and his wife were in better circumstances, leading to a more comfortable upbringing for the child.

"I'd rather cultivate in peace," said Moyu Liuxing, who disliked a life filled with danger.

"Alright, one has given up," Luo Feng nodded, "After becoming my servant, I will not offer him cultivation guidance or resources."

The eldest Moyu LieFeng and second Moyu Qingyan were both startled.

"He will need to comprehend the laws on his own," Luo Feng continued, "After grasping the Ten Fundamental Laws, he may pass the first trial; only after enduring many trials can he qualify to become my disciple."

"To glean the Ten Fundamental Laws without any guidance?" The surprise was palpable for the eldest and second Moyu brothers.

Creatures born in the Land of Origin could almost always become True Gods, precisely because they relied on the Bloodline Cultivation Method! If one chose the path of laws, the proportion of creatures reaching True God status would diminish drastically.

Grasping the Ten Fundamental Laws is exceedingly difficult!

"Since birth, we have followed the Bloodline Cultivation Method. Even if we exhaust our lives, it would be extremely difficult to perceive the Ten Fundamental Laws," Moyu LieFeng said, "And if we're unable to perceive them..."

"If you're unable to perceive them, naturally you cannot become my disciple," Luo Feng stated, "Even having perceived them, there are still other trials to pass."

Moyu LieFeng was reluctant but still declared, "I give up."

Moyu Hu watched his eldest son, who could endure hardships and was very determined. However, the challenge of 'perceiving the Ten Fundamental Laws' made him choose to give up voluntarily.

"And you?" Luo Feng turned his gaze to the remaining Moyu brother, the second 'Moyu Qingyan', "Will you give up?"

"I am willing to follow the Supreme," Moyu Qingyan answered without hesitation.

Luo Feng nodded in satisfaction and then said to Moyu Hu, "Moyu Qingyan it is, then. From now on, he is my servant."

"Thank you, Supreme," Moyu Hu had observed his children's choices from the beginning. Aware of his sons' temperaments, he was not surprised by their decisions.

Luo Feng nodded, "From now on, Moyu Qingyan will live here."

"Then we shall take our leave," Moyu Hu respectfully bid farewell, leading the other two children away, leaving only the second son, 'Moyu Qingyan', behind with Luo Feng.

"As I said, I will not guide you and will not provide you with cultivation resources," Luo Feng addressed Moyu Qingyan, "You must diligently comprehend the Ten Fundamental Laws. As for the minor matters within the cave dwelling, follow Luo Sa's arrangements!"

"Yes, Supreme," Moyu Qingyan said respectfully.

"Kid, you need to call the master just like me," Morosa said.

"Yes, Master," Moyu Qingyan obediently replied.

"Luo Sa, help me teach him well," Luo Feng waved his hand dismissively. He wouldn't give any advice or resources, but he didn't forbid Morosa from giving some guidance.

"Kid, come with me!" Morosa stretched out his hand and grabbed Moyu Qingyan by the neck, happily walking out. From now on, he could order Moyay Qingyan to serve him and the master.

Luo Feng watched the scene with a smile.

The biggest flaw in the Bloodline Cultivation System was its shaky foundation! It relied solely on the power of the bloodline to progress until eventually hitting an insurmountable bottleneck.

Both the Duan Dong River lineage and God King Jin's lineage noted in their heritage that the top families in the Land of Origin insisted that their members 'at least master the Ten Fundamental Laws.' Understanding these basic laws made it much easier to comprehend the Bloodline Cultivation Method. The path of bloodline cultivation would then be much more promising.

"As my disciple, even if you can't follow the Law Lineage, at the very least, your journey in bloodline cultivation should take you far," Luo Feng thought. "In the Land of Origin, the environment for perceiving the laws is much better than in the Primordial Cosmos! And Morosa might give some tips occasionally!

If he can't master the Ten Fundamental Laws even under these conditions, then he truly is worthless and doesn't deserve to be my disciple!"

...

Moyu Hu and the two children returned to their dwelling.

"The path you choose is your own; just don't regret it," Moyu Hu spoke only after arriving home.

"Father, I am not afraid of death, but I fear having no chance to rise," the eldest, Moyu LieFeng, said solemnly. "I am already at the Ninth Realm of True God. With more effort, I might reach the state of the true god of void space. And concerning the so-called Ten Fundamental Laws, I've tried to comprehend them before, and fear that I may not grasp them in my lifetime."

The third child, Moyu Liuxing, smiled, "Father, I willingly chose my own path."

"Good, no complaints then," Moyu Hu nodded and didn't say much; their paths were theirs to forge!

And he also felt that the path of his second son, Moyu Qingyan, would not be an easy one.

******

Night fell.

Inside the large cave mansion of the Diaorong Clan.

"Qi went to the Moli Clan again; she's quite close to Moli Feiyun," The old man with the fuzzy tail thought, "She spends more time with Moli Feiyun than with me, her father."

He was actually quite pleased; after all, the Moli Clan was one of the Five Great Families!

Suddenly—

A blood-red aura instantly burst into the large cave dwelling. The formations that were constantly operating within the mansion were torn apart in the blink of an eye.

"Who is it!" The old man 'Diaorong Yan' with red eyebrows changed his complexion drastically, and a terrifying fluctuation burst out from the center of his being, the dazzling red light spreading directly towards that blood-red aura.

"The cosmos is formed in a thought; my dwelling is enveloped and completely isolated from the outside world," Diaorong Yan knew something was wrong and immediately manifested his massive True Body—a creature with fuzzy tail and erect red fur.

"What's happening?"

"What's going on?" The members of the Diaorong Clan inside the mansion, seeing Diaorong Yan's towering True Body, were somewhat panicked.

"I didn't expect you, a mere alchemist, to have some tricks up your sleeve," a cold voice resonated within Diaorong Yan's consciousness. "Unfortunately, before me, they are worth nothing."

Boom, boom, boom~~~

Diaorong Yan said urgently, "Please, stop, we can talk this over."

A gigantic blood-colored hand appeared out of nowhere, and in the moment it appeared, it grasped Diaorong Yan's True Body, causing it to disintegrate immediately. What followed was an endless sweep of Blood Light across the entire mansion, eradicating all creatures within it, whether they were from the Diaorong Clan or were servants and guards.

...

At the city owner's mansion in Huyang City, inside a hall.

"The cave dwelling of the Diaorong Clan has suddenly been enveloped by a small Cosmic Domain, and a massive burst of Divine Power has been detected in that area," a group of officials responsible for monitoring the entire city noticed the disturbance at the location of the Diaorong Clan's dwelling.

"Quickly report to the City Lord."

...

Inside the cave mansion of the Moli Clan.

Diaorong Qi and Moli Feiyun, the two women, were sipping wine and chatting leisurely.

"I like my senior brother, but he doesn't care about me…" Moli Feiyun was slightly tipsy from drinking.

"I want to become a disciple, to take Commander Moli Xiao as my master, but Commander Moli Xiao doesn't think much of me. I want to take Lord Luo He as my master, but Lord Luo He looks down on me as well…" Diaorong Qi said in annoyance as she drank her wine.

Suddenly—

Diaorong Qi received a message on her transmission token.

"Qi, my killer is the Blood Python Association Leader 'Mu Yang.' You must remember this…" a message of final words came through.

A small cosmic domain isolated the inside from the outside; normal transmission tokens couldn't send information through. However, Diaorong Yan used an expensive Karmic Messenger Order, managing to send out a message before death.

"Father!" Diaorong Qi jerked awake, completely sobered.

"What's wrong?" Moli Feiyun asked in a daze.
