Swallowed Star 2: Origin Continent-Chapter 171: Luo Feng and Divine King Bolu

“This ‘Eternal Light of the Chaos Void’ secret technique is perfect for me to conceal my identity and act.” Luo Feng also thought. Some powerful beings on the Origin Continent would hide their identities when doing things that could easily offend major forces.

The Eternal Light of the Chaos Void, as seen by the outside world, was merely an unstoppable blade light.

In a battle, Luo Feng would not release the blade light for the opponent to slowly study it. The blade light, refined to the extreme, would not allow the opponent to penetrate or probe it.

It would only be sensed for an instant.

Those with less experience might guess if it was a method from the Origin Path of Matter, or perhaps the Origin Path of Boundlessness. These two paths could also achieve the invincible, endless sharpness that the blade light represented.

Those with a higher realm might be able to perceive a trace of the essence of the Origin Path of Destruction. But on the Origin Continent, there were many Divine Kings who cultivated the “Origin Path of Destruction,” which was a major school of thought.

“After relaxing for a bit, I should focus on the ‘Ten Directions World Form’ again.” Luo Feng continued to comprehend the Ten Directions World Form.

The Paths of Life and Destruction were ultimately the foundation of the “Path of Life and Death.”

The stronger the foundation, the stronger the fusion of the “Path of Life and Death.”

…

At the border of the Ancient Flame Kingdom, in the Boundary City.

A man dressed in white walked up to the Guardian’s Mansion. His appearance was sacred and difficult to distinguish as male or female, but the guards of the Guardian’s Mansion could not see him at all.

“Luo He the Great Sage,” the man in white spoke, his voice transmitted to Luo Feng’s ears through causality.

“So it’s Divine King Bolu.” Luo Feng had already sensed his presence when he entered the city. However, if the other party did not visit, Luo Feng would have pretended not to see him. After all, many people entered and exited the city daily.

Since the visitor had come, Luo Feng naturally went to the mansion’s gate to greet him personally.

“This…” The guards at the gate only now noticed a sacred man dressed in white standing there, and they couldn’t help but be mesmerized by him.

“Divine King Bolu, please,” Luo Feng invited.

Divine King Bolu smiled slightly and then entered.

In the guest pavilion, the two sat across from each other.

Facing Divine King Bolu, Luo Feng felt no pressure. Divine King Bolu was a direct disciple of Emperor Qing and had unmatched strength at the first stage of the Divine King level.

Emperor Qing, being the most transcendent figure among the thirteen emperors of the Ancient Flame Kingdom, had taken a total of fifteen direct disciples, including six Divine Kings, eight Chaos Realm Transcendents, and one peak Chaos Realm cultivator.

These six Divine Kings were all extraordinary. One was at the second stage of the Divine King level, two were at the first-stage invincible level, and three were at the first-stage extreme level. This demonstrated Emperor Qing’s ability to nurture disciples.

No one who could become a Divine King was ordinary.

Divine King Bolu was one of the six Divine Kings. He had reached the invincible level of the first-stage Divine King after converting to the Primordial Bloodline.

Luo Feng believed that, even if he gave his all, he now had the power of a “first-stage Divine King at the extreme level.” As someone still in the Chaos Realm, to possess such strength meant that Luo Feng felt no pressure when facing Divine King Bolu.

“Luo He the Great Sage, we are both direct disciples of emperors and guest officials of the Ancient Flame Kingdom, so we are in similar situations,” Divine King Bolu said with a smile. “As guest officials, we should keep in touch and help each other. That way, the path of cultivation will be smoother.”

“That makes sense,” Luo Feng agreed.

Divine King Bolu was famous for his social skills.

Among Emperor Qing’s direct disciples, he was the most skilled in building relationships, with friends spread across the Origin Continent. What was most admired by the outside world was his excellent relationship with many Divine Kings of the Myriad Realms Kingdom, and he had even successfully apprenticed under the Ruler of the Myriad Realms. Emperor Qing, as his master, allowed him to do this.

A Divine King apprenticing under both Emperor Qing and the Ruler of the Myriad Realms—such a case was unique on the Origin Continent.

Of course, the Ruler of the Myriad Realms had a good relationship with the Ancient Flame Kingdom as well, and many of his disciples served as guest officials there.

“I have established a mutual aid organization called the ‘Tianxin Alliance.’ It has no rules, only for members to contact each other more easily,” Divine King Bolu said. “Our organization mainly invites first-stage Divine Kings. So far, we have over a hundred members, and three of our early members have broken through to the second stage of the Divine King level.”

“Our members come from two ancient kingdoms, three top-tier forces, and many other nations,” Divine King Bolu said with a smile.

“I’ve heard of the Tianxin Alliance before,” Luo Feng said.

His master, Zuo Shan Ke, had been a member of the Tianxin Alliance when he was still the Jin Divine King.

It was merely a platform for Divine Kings to connect with each other, with no binding constraints.

Divine King Bolu had established this platform, and because of it, he had strong relationships with many forces. As the disciple of both Emperor Qing and the Ruler of the Myriad Realms, and being a ruler himself, Divine King Bolu naturally wielded great influence on the Origin Continent.

“Luo He the Great Sage, would you be willing to join?” Divine King Bolu asked.

“Of course,” Luo Feng nodded.

He had joined the Reincarnation Pavilion and could also join other organizations. In fact, the Tianxin Alliance couldn’t even be considered an organization—it merely made it easier for Divine Kings to connect.

Divine King Bolu smiled. “Haha, you are indeed straightforward, Luo He the Great Sage. If you ever have trouble or need help, feel free to ask! Although my abilities are limited, I have friends all over the Origin Continent, and I can solve many problems.”

“Certainly,” Luo Feng nodded.

Divine King Bolu had a good reputation, mainly because he was known for helping other Divine Kings.

“This is the Tianxin Token. After you join, I believe many Divine Kings will reach out to you.” Divine King Bolu handed a token to Luo Feng.

Luo Feng looked at the wooden token and smiled as he accepted it.

“Then I won’t linger any longer,” Divine King Bolu said as he rose to leave.

Luo Feng personally saw him off.

As they walked through the Guardian’s Mansion, they encountered some servants, all of whom were extremely respectful.

“Master.” They suddenly encountered Moyu Qingyan and his wife.

“This is Divine King Bolu,” Luo Feng introduced.

Moyu Qingyan and Zhang Yunge were both taken aback. They were not ordinary Eternal True Gods, and they were well-informed about Divine King Bolu’s fame.

“Greetings, Divine King Bolu,” Moyu Qingyan and Zhang Yunge said respectfully.

“So, this is your only disciple, Moyu Qingyan?” Divine King Bolu looked at Moyu Qingyan and then at Zhang Yunge.

Luo Feng said, “This is my disciple, Qingyan, and beside him is his wife, Yunge.”

“Yunge?” Divine King Bolu asked. “I believe I’ve seen you before.”

“Yes,” Zhang Yunge responded excitedly. “Divine King, you have often given public lectures in ‘Bolu City,’ guiding us weaker cultivators… I’ve attended three of your lectures and listened to your teachings.”

Luo Feng listened from the side.

Divine King Bolu enjoyed helping other Divine Kings, and he also often helped the weak, giving public lectures.

Although the lectures were about basic methods like comprehending the “Chaos Laws,” the teachings of a ruler-level figure were still extremely precious. Each time he gave a lecture, many Eternal True Gods would travel to Bolu City to listen.

“Hahaha…” Divine King Bolu laughed. “Cultivation is difficult, and I only offer a bit of guidance.”

After that, Divine King Bolu didn’t say much more and left Boundary City, accompanied by Luo Feng.

…

“Divine King Bolu is immensely powerful yet incredibly kind,” Zhang Yunge said excitedly after returning to their cave. “Before, when I listened to his lectures, I could only watch from afar. This time, he spoke to me personally, and he was so kind.”

“Indeed, very kind,” Moyu Qingyan agreed.

After all, for a powerful Divine King to speak a few words with two Eternal True Gods was very rare.

“In a few days, Divine King Bolu will give another public lecture,” Zhang Yunge said to Moyu Qingyan. “We should go together! Let’s go listen to the Divine King’s teachings.”

“Go together?” Moyu Qingyan thought for a moment.

“It won’t take long, just a few days,” Zhang Yunge urged.

“Alright, I can adjust my rotation duties in advance,” Moyu Qingyan said with a smile.

City affairs were handled in rotation, and cultivators also needed time for their own cultivation.

…

Bolu City.

On the day Divine King Bolu gave his lecture, Eternal True Gods from all directions gathered in the square. Up to a million Eternal True Gods, their eyes burning with passion, stared at the high platform. When Divine King Bolu appeared, they

were all incredibly excited.

Having over a million Eternal True Gods was already considered a small number, mainly because the journey was too far, and traveling as an Eternal True God was dangerous.

“Divine King Bolu’s lectures are indeed extraordinary,” Moyu Qingyan praised after listening.

He admitted it.

Divine King Bolu’s teachings were more detailed than even his second master’s. Of course, Divine King Bolu only taught for one day! On the other hand, Morosa’s guidance lasted much longer and could be tailored to Moyu Qingyan’s specific questions.

“I feel I’ve made some progress again,” Zhang Yunge said excitedly. “If I had a Divine King as my master to guide me regularly, maybe I could hope to reach the Chaos Realm.”

As the cultivators in the square dispersed.

“Moyu Qingyan, Zhang Yunge, the Divine King requests your presence,” one of Divine King Bolu’s servants came to invite them.

“Invite us?” Moyu Qingyan and Zhang Yunge were both flattered and followed the servant to the only mountain in the city, “Mount Bolu.”

In a quiet place on Mount Bolu.

Moyu Qingyan and Zhang Yunge saw Divine King Bolu sitting leisurely.

“Greetings, Divine King,” they both bowed respectfully.

“Moyu Qingyan, how is your master doing?” Divine King Bolu asked.

“My master is doing well, as always, focused entirely on his cultivation,” Moyu Qingyan replied.

“Luo He the Great Sage has a pure heart. His future is far brighter than mine,” Divine King Bolu praised, then looked at the two of them. “Since you traveled from the border to listen to my lecture, it shows your sincerity. Now, show me some of your techniques.”

“Yes.”

Moyu Qingyan and Zhang Yunge each demonstrated their techniques.

Divine King Bolu gave them pointers, and the two juniors listened carefully, feeling they had gained much.

“You two have average talent, but with greater diligence and focus, you may hope to reach the Chaos Realm,” Divine King Bolu said.

“We understand,” Moyu Qingyan and his wife listened attentively.

“Moyu Qingyan has Luo He the Great Sage as his master, so I don’t need to worry about him. Zhang Yunge… If you are willing, you can become my disciple,” Divine King Bolu said. He had taken in many disciples, with over three hundred personal disciples to date.

Zhang Yunge was overjoyed with excitement.

In her clan, she could not even meet the Divine King Ancestor.

In Boundary City, Luo Feng would only occasionally give a few pointers to his personal disciple, Moyu Qingyan, and usually left his teaching to Morosa. Zhang Yunge had even fewer opportunities.

“Disciple greets Master.” Zhang Yunge immediately knelt and formally acknowledged him as her master. How could she miss the opportunity to apprentice under a Divine King?

Moyu Qingyan was also happy for his wife. Becoming a disciple of a Divine King meant a brighter path for her cultivation.

“Good.” Divine King Bolu nodded with a smile.

“As my disciple, you will be given a residence on the mountain. You and your husband can live there or return to Boundary City whenever you wish.” Divine King Bolu said, and a servant soon led Moyu Qingyan and his wife away.

Divine King Bolu watched them leave.

“Master, Zhang Yunge’s talent is mediocre. She has no hope of reaching the Chaos Realm. Why did you take her as a disciple?” asked an old servant in the Chaos Realm, puzzled.

“Nothing is absolute. If she focuses on cultivation, there might be a miracle,” Divine King Bolu said. “Besides, I took her as a disciple because of Luo He the Great Sage. It’s a small way to form a karmic connection.”

“Luo He the Great Sage?” the old servant said. “But he is merely a Chaos Realm Transcendent.”

“He is a Chaos Realm Transcendent who can rival a powerful first-stage Divine King with his self-created secret techniques,” Divine King Bolu said. “Once he becomes a Divine King, he will quickly reach the invincible level of the first-stage Divine King. Across the entire Origin Continent, there are perhaps only five people who can reach the invincible level of the first-stage Divine King without external assistance, and Luo He will soon be one of them.”

Divine King Bolu looked at the old servant who had followed him for countless years. “Luo He will one day be much stronger than I am.”

“The path of cultivation is difficult and filled with endless risks. Even I could fall if I’m not careful. Making friends is one way to defend against those risks, and making powerful friends is even more important.” Divine King Bolu turned and walked away.

The old servant understood and quickly followed.

…

“Master, Divine King Bolu has taken Yunge as his disciple.” Moyu Qingyan sent a message back.

In Boundary City, Luo Feng received the news.

“That is good,” Luo Feng replied.
