Chapter 427: Inheritance of the Infernal God King
The mysterious young man was none other than Luo Feng, the strongest human being, and the old man was none other than Xu Feng, an ordinary human being who had been crowned a king.
The gap in strength between the two is huge. Logically speaking, Xu Feng would never be able to catch up with Luo Feng in his lifetime. However, in the past 3 million years, Xu Feng has never given up this idea, even for a moment.
At this moment, Luo Feng did not have his usual friendly look, and he looked at Xu Feng as if he was looking at a stranger.
After a moment, the old man frowned, looked up and saw Luo Feng's gaze, and asked Luo Feng: "Who are you?"
Luo Feng smiled slightly: "Whoever you say I am, I am that person..."
The old man sighed, looked at Luo Feng deeply, and prepared to start a new round of forging, but his face showed deep doubt.
"That's enough, you two. Every time you meet, you talk about cultivation. Can't you spend some time with your family when you're together?"
Following the voice, a beautiful young woman walked out of the villa. It was Xu Xin.
Xu Xin glared at Luo Feng, came to the old man, sat beside him, poured him a cup of tea, and said, "Brother, why have you been practicing so hard?"
"Brother, are you doing this to protect your family? Luo Feng is already the strongest man in the world. You no longer need to work hard on your training. Isn't it better to just spend time with your family and enjoy eternal life?"
The old man was also confused when he heard Xu Xin's question. "Yes, why am I practicing so hard?"
Luo Feng raised his head and looked at the old man calmly, and asked: "Is it to surpass me? Then what do you want to do after you surpass me?"
"What do you want to do after surpassing Luo Feng?" The old man was silent for a while, then he sighed and said.
"Haven't you remembered it yet?" Luo Feng sighed.
The old man looked up at the sky, and after a while, he shook his head and said, "What exactly am I practicing for, and what do you want me to remember?"
Luo Feng raised his head, looked at the old man, and said calmly: "It's the 50th year. There are still 100 years left to the 50th year. I hope you can remember it."
The old man picked up the teacup and put it to his lips, but he never moved.
Luo Feng retracted his gaze and looked at the force weapon forged by the old man for a long time, then said softly: "It's not time yet... No..."
Soon 3 million years passed, Hong also reached the level of Lord of the Universe, and Lei Shen also entered the level of Universe Venerable. At the same time, Xu Feng's will also entered the level of Universe Overlord. Luo Feng's son Luo Hai also caught up with his second uncle Xu Feng and reached the level of Venerable.
However, Xu Feng was still constantly forging weapons. For 3 million years, in addition to forging weapons, Xu Feng had been thinking about why he was practicing so hard. Even though Xu Feng gave up practicing, his own realm had entered the Venerable realm because of the dwarf forging method.
At this moment, Xu Feng is in Mingyue Community, forging a top-notch and precious weapon.
Luo Feng appeared again. Xu Feng looked up at the unfamiliar Luo Feng and asked calmly, "Is it still you?"
"Are you still unwilling to end it?" Luo Feng sighed.
Xu Feng was at a loss and asked, "Why do you want to end it? This kind of life is good... except that I don't know who you are!"
"There's still one year left?" Luo Feng asked again: "It's the same question again, what is the real purpose of your cultivation?"
Xu Feng retracted his gaze and cast it on the top treasure in his hand for a long time, then said softly: "I haven't found the answer yet."
At this moment, in the Purgatory Abyss, inside the Purgatory Demon Palace, the palace spirit Hellfire had a very serious expression. He stared at Xu Feng, who was practicing with his eyes closed, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
"It's been 99 years... Hasn't Xu Feng condensed the divine fire yet? In another year, if Xu Feng still can't successfully cultivate the Red Lotus Karma Fire, then he will completely lose the qualifications to become the master of the Purgatory Demon Palace..."
"Does Lord Hellfire have to wait for hundreds of epochs before he can meet his true successor?"
The third picture is said to be a test, but in reality, it is also a great opportunity to temper your will!
The most effective way to cultivate the Red Lotus Karma Fire is when you accept the illusion for the first time. After condensing the Red Lotus Karma Fire, the soul will have a certain resistance to illusions, and the effect of accepting illusion trials in the future will naturally be greatly reduced.
But relatively speaking, the first time of practicing the Red Lotus Karma Fire is also the most dangerous and critical one. If one cannot escape from the illusion and condense the divine fire within a hundred years, the practitioner will be forever addicted to the fantasy world.
"Oh, I hope this kid can pull through..."
Three million years later in the fantasy, Mingyue Community.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Xu Feng was holding an iron hammer, forging his first treasure like crazy!
At this moment, Xu Feng was forging and hammering the weapon embryo while whispering: "Why am I practicing? To surpass Luo Feng?"
"Luo Feng finally reached the level of Hunyuan Lord. How could I possibly surpass him! What's the point of me practicing to become so strong?" Every time he beat the embryo, a red thread appeared in Xu Feng's eyes. Until the embryo was finished beating, Xu Feng's eyes were full of red, and combined with the image of the old man who was as dry as a bone, he looked like a devil crawling out of hell!
At this moment, the embryo of the treasure in Xu Feng's hand was also forged into a peerless magic sword emitting monstrous demonic energy!
After the quenching was completed, Xu Feng stared at the treasure embryo in front of him as if possessed by a demon, and said self-deprecatingly, "As a time traveler, I can only reach the realm of the universe master. Haha, how ridiculous."
"I'd better live a life of eating and waiting for death from now on. Anyway, with City Lord Luo around, I can enjoy eternal life."
Just as Xu Feng was preparing to enchant the magic knife and complete the last step of refining the weapon, a mysterious energy suddenly came out from the Meteor Tear and injected into Xu Feng's sea of consciousness, and his eyes regained a bit of clarity again.
"No, instead of just eating and waiting to die, it's better to go out into the universe and look for various opportunities!"
"The Origin Universe still has a long time to live, which is enough for me to cultivate to become the strongest in the universe and look for opportunities in the ocean of the universe. It's a rare rebirth, so if I don't try, what's the difference between me and salted fish?"
After finding the direction again, Xu Feng in the illusion felt that various familiar powers appeared in his body, including the power of the stars!
Xu Feng's eyes became brighter and brighter, and countless cultivation experiences, memories, and various states of mind of the most powerful way flooded into his mind.
"I finally remembered that my goal is not to surpass Luo Feng, but to surpass Lord Hunyuan!"
Xu Feng looked at the peerless magic sword in his hand, "It turns out that this is not a treasure embryo at all, but the sword of my will!"
Xu Feng was afraid that if he hadn't remembered everything at the last moment, he might have been trapped in the illusion forever.
Luo Feng appeared in front of Xu Feng again and looked at him with satisfaction.
"Have you finally remembered?" Luo Feng asked Xu Feng.
"Yeah, I remember now." Xu Feng looked at the 'Luo Feng' in front of him and finally knew who Luo Feng was.
"It's time to go back." Luo Feng turned back into the Soul Fire, and then into a deep red flame, condensing on the Sword of Will to activate it.
The evil spirit of the precious long sword began to gradually disappear, and the sword of will also became holy and powerful.
As the Sword of Will transformed, Xu Feng's will also became stronger, until the Sword of Will became strong to an extreme, and Xu Feng's will finally reached the realm of the Lord of the Universe! Xu Feng's eyes revealed a trace of wonder, he stared at the Sword of Will in his hand, and swung his hand violently to perform the third move of the Wanxiang Sword Technique, Fiery Flames Burning the Sky, and a dazzling red light came out and rushed straight into the sky.
The dazzling knife light cut through the entire world.
The knife light was extremely domineering. Wherever it passed, it was like a hot iron placed in the snow. The world here suddenly disappeared.
A deafening sound suddenly came from the sky, rumbling loudly and dispelling all the haziness around.
The old man's appearance also became younger and younger as the world dissipated. The whole world disappeared, and Xu Feng turned into the young boy again!
Xu Feng's eyes were calm, and there was a strange change in his whole appearance compared to before he entered the illusion, but this change was hidden very deeply by him and was difficult to detect.
But you can see that his eyes are clearer than before, like the starry sky.
Xu Feng took a step forward, and the whole person disappeared into nothingness, walking out of the illusion.
. . . .
Inside the Purgatory Palace, Hellfire was looking at Xu Feng anxiously.
"It's almost been 100 years, haven't you woken up yet?"
Just when Yuhuo thought that Xu Feng’s training had failed, Xu Feng finally opened his eyes!
"Huff, huff~~" Xu Feng suddenly broke free from the illusion, and at this moment he was sweating profusely.
Xu Feng reached out and wiped the sweat off his forehead, feeling the red flame in the center of his sea of consciousness that evolved from the soul fire: "Is this my divine fire?"
"...My willpower finally broke through! It was only a hundred years in the outside world, but it was more than 6 million years for me! Although the laws of perception in the illusion were useless, I gained some new insights and new ideas. Finally, when I accepted all the memories of the illusion, I broke through to the will of the Lord of the Universe! If I didn't have Meteor Tears..."
"I'm afraid that even if I go through countless reincarnations, I will never awaken. Fortune and misfortune are interdependent!"
Every move Xu Feng made exuded an extremely strong will.
"Not only that! My self-created secret method has finally reached the peak of the 4th level. I can break the nucleus at any time. I only need to select materials to breed clones, and then I can break through to immortality!"
Hellfire suddenly spoke up and said with a smile: "Xu Feng! Congratulations! You are about to become the new master of the Purgatory Palace!"
Changing the subject, Hellfire said with relief: "I can finally venture out into the outside world again..."
Xu Feng smiled and said, "Haha, it's all thanks to Lord Yuhuo's care."
Hellfire laughed and said, "Xu Feng, you are about to become the master of the Purgatory Palace. I won't hide it from you."
"In fact, I am the spirit of the God King-level treasure Purgatory Demon Palace. Once you successfully recognize me as your master, you will be my master. Don't call me sir in the future."
“A divine king-level treasure!”
Hearing this, Xu Feng immediately became uneasy and asked, "A divine king-level treasure? Could it be that the master of the Purgatory Demon Palace is a divine king?"
A look of reminiscence appeared on Hellfire's face. "The old master was once a god-king-like existence. He was well-known even in the Origin Continent. His nickname was the Purgatory God King."
"But countless years have passed, and I don't know if there are any legends about the master left in the Origin Continent..."
"After the old master took the last step, he surpassed the realm of God King and reached a higher level of world, so he left behind his inheritance, and it will be passed down to you, kid."
Hearing this, Xu Feng was stunned for a while, and suddenly remembered that the realm above the God King seemed to be the Hunyuan realm, and asked: "Could it be that the Purgatory God King has set foot in the Hunyuan realm?"
Hellfire glanced at Xu Feng in surprise: "I didn't expect you to know the realm of the descendants of the God King. It seems that your inheritance is not simple either."
"But it doesn't matter, as long as you can spread the title of Purgatory God King throughout the Origin Continent again and pass on the legacy."
Hellfire's expression suddenly became solemn, "Xu Feng, are you willing to take Hellfire God King as your master and pass on the old master's lineage?"
Xu Feng immediately thought of the Duan Donghe lineage, which was also a single-line lineage. The difference was that Duan Donghe had been passed down for many generations, while he was only the second generation of the Purgatory God King lineage.
"It seems that there is nothing to lose. Not to mention the Red Lotus of Karma Fire, I also want to obtain the skills of the Purgatory God King."
"After learning someone else's skills and taking their treasures, it would be a bit unreasonable not to become their disciple."
Xu Feng also replied solemnly: "I do!"
Hellfire smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, then Xu Feng, you should acknowledge the Ancestral Prison Temple as your master!"
With a wave of his hand, Xu Feng arrived at a mysterious space. In front of Xu Feng was a small 18-story silver tower floating.
Hellfire said: "This is the 18th floor of the Purgatory Temple, which is also the core of the Ancestral Prison Temple. You only need to refine this core Purgatory Tower with the newly awakened Red Lotus Karma Fire. However, if you want to activate the Ancestral Prison Temple, you also need to comprehend the secret patterns of the Ancestral Prison Temple."
"The Zuyu Temple has a total of twenty secret patterns. The True God level can activate the first three secret patterns, the Void True God level can activate the fourth, fifth, and sixth secret patterns, the Eternal True God level can activate the seventh, eighth, and ninth secret patterns, the Chaos Lord can activate the tenth, eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth secret patterns, and the God King level can activate the remaining seven secret patterns!"
"However, with your current understanding of the law, you can barely activate the first level of secret pattern."
“But the secret patterns of the Ancestral Prison Temple are not simply the secret patterns of the origin laws or the fusion laws, but the patterns of laws that truly contain all the laws! It may be a little more difficult to comprehend.”
"By the way, the first floor of the Purgatory Temple stores countless secrets, including many secrets from the Lord of Laws to the God King. In your spare time, you can read and learn the secrets of the next level."
"As for the information about the origin continent and other information, it is on the second floor. However, there is too much information there. I suggest you only read the crystal catalog recorded in the first memory crystal and select the information you need to read. I have already sorted out those crystals."
After Xu Feng digested these words, he asked, "Where is the treasure?"
Hellfire laughed loudly: "Hahaha, the treasure is on the third floor of the Ancestral Prison Temple. After you acknowledge the Ancestral Prison Temple as your master, you will know all this information. I won't say much. If I were to introduce it to you bit by bit, it would take me decades to finish!"
Thank you for your reward, Boss Dream·Death's Sky~ I am sincerely grateful. I have finished the two updates and will continue to update. The writing time may be longer during the May Day holiday, and I will try to write more words by then.
