Chaos Heavenly Emperor Art

Ling Feng stared intently at the strange flower, a surge of joy welling up inside him.

Although one of the Sixth-Era Star Lotuses was taken away, what does it matter compared to the Nineth-Era Star Lotus before us?
Nine layers of lotus flowers, dazzling and magnificent!
Nine layers of petals, each radiating different star-like divine light, shone with nine colors, like solidified galaxies of the universe, exuding a majestic aura that made one's soul tremble!
That incredibly rich and exotic fragrance, like the sweetest nectar, seeped into the depths of his soul, making even the depleted chaotic essence within Ling Feng's body leap with joy!
"Master, this must be the legendary Nine-Epoch Star Lotus!"

Zi Ling was equally excited, "Haha, we're so lucky!"

As she spoke, she could hardly resist going forward to pick them.

However, at that moment, Ling Feng reached out and pulled her back, shaking his head slightly at her.

Zi Ling blinked, somewhat puzzled. "What's wrong? The Nine-Epoch Star Lotus is right in front of us!"

But in Ling Feng's eyes, besides surprise and excitement, there was also a hint of solemnity and vigilance!

"I'm afraid it's not that simple!"

Ling Feng shook his head, suppressing the greed deep within him that was almost overwhelming his reason, his gaze fixed on the strange flower rooted on the massive star beast skull.

“An Ruosu said that with the fall of the Star God, all the Star Lotuses will automatically petrify in order to protect themselves. To bloom again, they must be continuously infused with Star Source Power by the Star Source Beast! To catalyze a Nine-Epoch Star Lotus, the Star Source Power it absorbs far exceeds the total amount of Star Lotuses on the bay!”

Ling Feng stared intently and said, "In other words, there should be a powerful Star Origin Beast guarding the vicinity of this Star Lotus."

His gaze was fixed intently on the enormous star beast skull.

The skull was as large as a mountain, and its entire body had a dark, jade-like luster that had been weathered by hundreds of millions of years. The roots of the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus had deeply pierced through its forehead.

But strangely, the aura remaining on this skull wasn't the chaotic, resentful stillness of a Star Origin Beast; instead, it carried an ancient, savage, even...

There was also a faint, almost imperceptible, throbbing sensation, as if it were alive.

"Now...where is its guardian beast?"

Ling Feng's eyes were filled with vigilance.

No matter how you look at it, all of this seems too obvious.

He fell into the deep abyss and was then directly drawn into the special space where the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus grows.

Then, without any obstacles, one can directly harvest the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus.
Although Ling Feng wanted to tell himself that all of this might be luck, reason told him that it wasn't that simple!
His gaze sharpened slightly, and after a moment of contemplation, he summoned the Eastern Emperor Bell.

With a thought, he discovered that although this space was relatively special, it could not block the teleportation ability of the Eastern Emperor Bell.

In other words, he could still use the Eastern Emperor Bell to teleport directly out, but he couldn't leave the circuitous star path directly.

With the Eastern Emperor Bell as a backup, Ling Feng felt much more at ease. If things went wrong, he could simply escape immediately.

of course……

Ling Feng gently pressed his hand to his chest; in his current state, it was not suitable for him to take any risks.

He stared at the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus, forcibly suppressing the greed in his heart, and decided that he could not act rashly.

"Ziling!"

Ling Feng took a deep breath, then looked at Zi Ling and said in a deep voice, "This flower is probably strange. Don't rush to pick it. Wait until my injuries have healed before making any plans. You will protect me and do not act rashly before I wake up."

Zi Ling pouted, but still nodded, "Alright, alright, you're the master, you decide!"

Ling Feng shook his head and smiled. If it were that cheap donkey, it probably wouldn't care about anything and would just charge straight at it.

Ziling is still the most reliable!
However, Ling Feng still missed the days when Jianlu, Zifeng, and Ajin were by his side.

I wonder what the situation is like in the Immortal Realm now.

Shaking his head, Ling Feng banished all distracting thoughts and dared not look at the alluring Nine-Epoch Star Lotus any longer.

The next moment, he darted away, enduring the excruciating pain that felt like his bones were about to break, and sat cross-legged on a relatively flat star-remains platform a hundred feet away from the Star Lotus.

He closed his eyes and began to fully circulate the "Original Creation Technique".

To Ling Feng's surprise, the exotic fragrance emitted by the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus seemed to contain some indescribable life essence!

As Lingfeng's cultivation technique circulated, wisps of fragrance seemed to possess a spirit, actively merging into his pores and permeating his entire body!
boom!
Like rain after a long drought!
A gentle yet powerful life energy exploded within Ling Feng's body in an instant!

This energy was extremely pure, frantically nourishing his shattered internal organs, broken meridians, and even his life essence that was on the verge of depletion!

"Well……"

Ling Feng couldn't help but let out a suppressed groan, feeling as if he were immersed in the fountain of life, with every cell cheering and jumping for joy!
The terrifying injuries inflicted by the Northern Underworld God of War and Ares began to heal at a visible speed under the nourishment of this vast life-giving star source!
The broken arm bone was reconnected as the divine runes flowed, the shattered internal organs were reshaped by new flesh and blood, and the depleted primordial power was like a deep well filled with clear spring water, regaining its vitality!

Ling Feng was slightly surprised; simply absorbing the fragrance had such an effect.

If we could refine this Nine-Epoch Star Lotus into a pill, or completely refine and absorb it, that would be incredible!

Ling Feng suppressed his excitement and continued to meditate and regulate his breathing.

After one day and one night.

Ling Feng suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze flashing with a sharp light.

He slowly got up, stretched his muscles and bones, and a slight but powerful boom came from his body!
Although he is still far from his peak condition, his injuries have recovered most of the time!

This was at least several times faster than he had expected!
"Owner!"

Ziling came forward, glanced at Ling Feng, and asked with a look of surprise, "You're all better?"

"It's just an external injury."

Ling Feng shook his head and smiled, then looked back at the radiant nine-layered flower with an even more complicated expression.

This incredible stroke of luck is right before our eyes, almost within our grasp!
But reason told him he had to stay calm.

"hold on……"

Ling Feng took a deep breath, suppressing his surging desire. "Let's wait until my origin is completely stable and I can handle any unexpected situation before we talk about it!"

He sat down cross-legged again, preparing to take advantage of this rare opportunity to adjust his condition to its best.

However, just as he calmed his mind and prepared to meditate—

A whisper, brimming with endless allure and seemingly emanating from the depths of his soul, quietly resonated in his mind:

"Come... come closer to me... touch me..."

"You will gain power beyond all..."

"You will uncover the ultimate secrets of the universe..."

"You will... become the new Star God..."

"..."

The voice possessed an indescribable magic, shattering Ling Feng's mental barrier almost instantly! The greed within him surged uncontrollably!

The light of the nine-layered lotus before him became incomparably dazzling, as if all the most beautiful things in the world were opening their arms to him!
Greed, like a poisonous vine, instantly entangled his reason!
"Mine...it's mine!!!"

Ling Feng's eyes were instantly filled with greed!

He suddenly stood up, as if pulled by invisible threads, and walked step by step, staggering but determined, toward the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus!

His footsteps quickened, until he almost became a blur!
"Master! Stop now!"

Zi Ling's terrified scream exploded like thunder in Ling Feng's mind!

But at this moment, Ling Feng's mind was completely bewitched by that demonic sound!

He paid no heed, his eyes fixed only on the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus so close at hand!
Ten zhang... five zhang... three zhang...

His hand, trembling uncontrollably and filled with an extreme yearning for supreme power, slowly reached towards the outermost dark golden petal...

My fingertips were almost touching the edge of the petals!

At this critical moment!
“Buzz——!!!”

Deep within Ling Feng's spiritual sea, the "seed" that had been condensed by cultivating the "Primordial Creation" according to the ancient god's method suddenly throbbed violently!
Immediately afterwards, a chilling coldness pierced Ling Feng's soul like an ice pick!

"wrong!!!"

Ling Feng suddenly jolted awake!
The greed in his eyes vanished instantly, and his eyes regained their clarity!
In an instant, cold sweat had soaked through my back!
He was horrified to discover that he was standing on the giant star beast skull, less than three feet away from the Nine Era Star Lotus!
The once sacred and beautiful nine-layered flower in front of us has now become incredibly hideous and twisted!

In an instant, a wildly spinning black vortex surged from the center of the flower's heart, and a chilling aura, like an ancient ferocious beast awakening, locked onto Ling Feng, who was standing right next to it!
"Roar!!!"

A terrifying shriek suddenly erupted from the depths of his soul. Ling Feng felt as if his sea of ​​consciousness had been struck by a heavy hammer, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

He retreated frantically, his eyes fixed on the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus in utter astonishment.

At this moment, the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus seemed to come "alive"!

Thick, dark gold roots, like countless wildly dancing venomous pythons, burst forth from the star beast's skull, accompanied by a shrill whistle that tore through the void and a viscous, foul-smelling dark green sap, sweeping towards Ling Feng like a tidal wave!

"Owner!"

Zi Ling immediately flew towards Ling Feng, protecting him with both hands. At the same time, she raised her hand, and countless Shadow Insects rushed towards the Nine-Year Star Lotus.

However, the roots of the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus actually entangled Zi Ling's Shadow Insects, and then, like pulsating blood vessels, began to frantically devour the life force of those Shadow Insects.

Ling Feng's eyelids twitched violently, and he hurriedly exclaimed, "Zi Ling, don't summon the Zerg army!"

Zi Ling also realized instantly that the more army she summoned, the more the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus could "have a feast"!

It turns out that the Star Lotus had already developed sentience!
In fact, it was originally a Star Lotus in that bay. After absorbing a large amount of star power, it gradually recovered its vitality and bloomed again.

It knew very well that once it fully blossomed, it would definitely be devoured by those Star Origin Beasts, so it created such a distorted space to avoid them.

However, because of this, it lost the infusion of Star Source Power. It can only slowly absorb some scattered Star Source Power, or lure some Star Source Beasts into this place to devour.

The enormous skeleton it was currently rooted in was actually the overlord-level Star Source Beast that had originally infused it with Star Source Power, and its power was even greater than that of the four giant whales.

After a long period of time, it finally barely managed to touch the threshold of the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus and complete its final transformation.

Ling Feng, this special being, gave it hope.

Although not a member of the Star Spirit race, Ling Feng possesses a powerful origin unique to the Star Spirits.

Once it completely devours Ling Feng, it will surely be able to complete its final breakthrough.

However, it does not possess strong combat capabilities, which is why it wanted to lure Ling Feng into picking the fruit while he was injured, and then launch a sneak attack when he was weak.

Unexpectedly, Ling Feng was so cautious and refused to fall for the trick. Seeing that Ling Feng's injuries were almost healed, it had no choice but to risk exposure and launch a seduction attack on Ling Feng.

Unexpectedly, it still ended in failure!

And that's why the Star Lotus became even more violent at this moment.

Wherever the roots passed, even the void was torn apart, leaving behind corrosive black marks!

"Back off first!!!"

Ling Feng's expression suddenly changed drastically. Zi Ling quickly spread a pair of huge wings behind her, grabbed Ling Feng's shoulders with both hands, and retreated frantically.

At the same time, Ling Feng frantically activated the power of the Chaos Origin, his gaze sharpened, and the God-Slaying Spear was unleashed.

The reason I didn't use the Chaos Origin before was because I was worried about revealing my identity.

But now, within this independent space created by the Right Nine Era Star Lotus, he no longer needed to hide his strength!

"Godslayer Spear Technique! Godslayer - Piercing the Sun!"

scoff!

A scarlet spear aura, condensed to its extreme, tore through the air in an instant and slashed fiercely at several of the thick roots that were the first to attack!

puff!

puff!

The roots, as tough as meteorite iron, snapped instantly!

A large amount of foul-smelling, dark green liquid spurted from the broken surface, making a sizzling, corrosive sound as it fell to the ground!
But then, even more roots, like endless sea serpents, surged in from all directions!
"The Barrier of Insects!"

Zi Ling reacted extremely quickly, letting out a sharp shout!
In an instant, countless shadow beetles surged out from her shadow, like a boiling black tide, forming a huge, constantly writhing wall of insects in front of her and Ling Feng!

Bang bang bang!
The dense impact sound was like rain hitting banana leaves. The tough insect wall fluctuated violently under the violent lashing of the roots. A large number of beetles were crushed into dust, but more beetles fearlessly filled the gap!

"Master! What's going on? Isn't that the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus?"

Zi Ling was both shocked and angry, and asked with a frown.

Ling Feng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid all of this is a trap set by that flower!"

With his intelligence, he had probably guessed most of it by now.

It wasn't that there were no guardian beasts around that Nine-Epoch Star Lotus, but rather that the so-called "guardian beasts" had long been devoured by it.

Fortunately, he was cautious and did not act rashly.

Otherwise, if he had rashly picked the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus while he was still seriously injured, he would probably be a corpse by now.

What a treacherous and cunning "flower"!
Ling Feng clenched his fists, his gaze turning cold as he stared at the Nine-Epoch Star Lotus, and coldly shouted, "Trying to devour me? You're not worthy!" (End of Chapter)
