Swallowing the Stars: Starting with Optimizing the Five Hearts Towards the Sky

Chapter 488 Luo Feng's Paper Strength

Nameless starry sky, inside the Blood Cloud Palace.

"Teacher, are you telling the truth? You want me to go to the Primordial Star?"

Luo Feng couldn't help but say, "But I remember there's still some time before the Primal Star opens, isn't there?"

The pattern of the primordial star's opening can be predicted, and the human race has a dedicated department that constantly calculates the opening time of the primordial star.

The closer to the moment of the birth of the original star, the more accurate the calculation results will be.

With Luo Feng's authority, there were almost no secrets about the entire human race that could be hidden from him, and he was naturally fully aware of the calculation results regarding the birth time of the Primordial Star.

"According to the calculations of the human race, it will be about 50,000 to 100,000 years before the original star is fully born."

Luo Feng shook his head and said helplessly, "Teacher, you're not planning to make me wait tens of thousands of years before starting the test again, are you?"

"Haha, of course not."

The Mountain-Sitting Guest smiled. "Since I mentioned the Primal Star to you, I naturally have absolute confidence that I can activate the Primal Star in the near future."

"Are you confident?" Luo Feng was taken aback.

As far as he knew, the opening of the primordial star involved the operating rules of the primordial universe. How could his teacher even influence this?

At this moment, Luo Feng thought of the mysterious Star Tower, which was also created by his teacher. Although his teacher said that the Star Tower was completed due to the influence of "golden light from outside the sky", it could also be just a pretext.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, who exactly are you?"

"?"

The mountain dweller was initially startled, wondering how his secrets had been discovered by his two disciples in succession. Fortunately, he quickly recovered and immediately laughed, "What? You think the opening of the Primordial Star has anything to do with me?"

"You've misunderstood me. Your teacher doesn't have that ability."

As he spoke, he shook his head with a sigh: "There are indeed people in the entire universe who can modify the rules governing the original universe, and you know this person. How did you connect this to me?"

"I know him?" Luo Feng was taken aback again. He frowned and pondered, then suddenly a flash of inspiration struck him, and he exclaimed, "Senior Brother Chen Yuan!"

"Yes, it's Chen Yuan."

The Mountain Guest immediately laughed and said, "You've heard quite a bit about his deeds, haven't you? The most important one is his extraordinary resurrection ability."

"Yes." Luo Feng nodded and said, "I've heard that the Lord of the Universe has the power to reverse time and space and resurrect the dead, but there is a limit to this resurrection, which is no higher than that of the Overlord of the Universe."

"To be precise, only the strongest being in the universe—that is, a true god—can achieve this level."

"That's right," said the Mountain-Sitting Guest. "In fact, this power of resurrection also comes from the gifts of the primordial universe, including the true god's words becoming law."

"Therefore, the effects of these powers are fixed, and no matter how strong one is, it is impossible to resurrect the existence of the Lord of the Universe."

"But Chen Yuan's powers are different. He can not only resurrect the Lord of the Universe, but even the True God."

"And all of this stems from his control over the primordial cosmic power."

"Similarly, through some of his powers, Chen Yuan can also mobilize some of the operating rules of the primordial universe, so it's no problem for him to bring the primordial star into existence ahead of time."

"I see." After hearing the teacher's explanation, Luo Feng couldn't help but exclaim, "This is too abnormal, it's like they're on a completely different level from us—I really don't know how Chen Yuan did it."

"Who knows?" The Mountain Guest smiled. In fact, he remembered why Chen Yuan held this power. The Supreme Rules had only erased his memory of what Chen Yuan was going to do in the future.

However, he couldn't say these things aloud, so he could only try to appease his apprentice.

"So, under Chen Yuan's influence, the Primordial Star will be born very soon?"

"Of course." The Mountain Guest nodded. "He mentioned this to me a long time ago, saying that he planned to use the Primal Star as your training ground."

"By this time, he has probably already convened a top-level meeting and announced this matter."

"Using the Primal Star as my training ground—" Upon hearing this, Luo Feng couldn't help but swallow hard. "So, Teacher, that's why you had me impersonate the Blood Cloud Palace Master and survive on the Primal Star?"

"No, teacher, you're pushing me into a fire pit!" he couldn't help but say. "I'm just a minor Universe Venerable, and now I'm facing the pursuit of all the powerful beings in the universe?"

It should be noted that the primordial universe has now been unified by Chen Yuan. When he issues an order, all the powerful beings in the primordial universe must take action.

Not to mention the actions of those true gods, even a universe lord of the level of the Chaos City Lord would be too much for him to handle.

The Mountain-Sitting Guest waved his hand dismissively at his disciple's worries: "Don't worry, Chen Yuan assured me that the True Gods won't intervene this time. Only those Universe Lords dare to besiege you."

"Lord of the Universe—" Luo Feng was speechless: "Teacher, aren't you overestimating me?"

It's not that I think too highly of you.

The man sitting on the mountain shook his head. "You underestimate yourself."

Luo Feng was taken aback.

"You are already a cosmic sage, and your genes will soon be transformed to a factor of ten thousand for perfection."

The Mountain-Sitting Guest said, "If you burn your divine power, you can activate the third form of the Calamity Armor, whose basic divine power is equivalent to that of a Universe Lord with two thousand times the genetic potential."

"You have an avatar from the Nine Nether Seas, and your divine power is almost inexhaustible. Burning your divine power can be used as a regular secret technique."

"In other words, in terms of divine power, you are only five times weaker than the strongest cosmic ruler."

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng suddenly realized that his teacher was right. After breaking through to the Universe Venerable level, the gap between him and the Universe Lord was actually not that big.

The difference in divine power level is five times, which at most makes him relatively weak in battle. Even a powerhouse of the level of the Chaos City Lord's teacher would not be able to defeat him in one move.

Sure enough, the Mountain-Sitting Guest continued, "Furthermore, in terms of secret techniques, the secret techniques you created have reached the ultimate level, not to mention the strongest secret techniques bestowed upon you by the Primal Universe. In this respect, your foundation is no less than that of a fourth-order Universe Lord."

"Wait, teacher," Luo Feng couldn't help but ask, "What is a fourth-order universe master?"

"This is a classification of the power of a universe master, roughly divided into six stages —"

The Mountain-Sitting Guest explained to Luo Feng the division of the Universe Lords from the first to the sixth level, and then said, "But you don't need to worry. There are currently no sixth-level Universe Lords in the Primordial Universe. At most, only fifth-level Universe Lords will come to besiege you."

"With your divine power and secret techniques, plus the combination of various supreme treasures, your strength is already close to the fourth level. Even if a fifth-level universe lord were to make a move, it would be impossible for him to kill you."

After hearing this, Luo Feng couldn't help but mutter, "So I'm this strong—"

There was no way around it; ever since he broke through to immortality, he had hardly engaged in any decent battles. His grasp of his own strength was still at the level of a realm lord, which was why he felt that the Lord of the Universe was still so high and mighty.

After the teacher's explanation, Luo Feng realized that he had unknowingly come into contact with one of the most advanced life forms in the primordial universe.

In fact, the reason why Chen Yuan and Zuo Shan Ke specifically activated the Primal Star was to allow Luo Feng to learn in battle and quickly master his rapidly increasing strength.

"Of course, although you are not weak now, you only look strong. You haven't experienced many battles at the same level."

The Mountain Guest reminded him, "There's one more thing you shouldn't forget: while you're playing the role of the Blood Cloud Palace Master, you won't be facing one-on-one battles, but rather encirclement and suppression from various major forces."

"One fifth-tier expert can't do anything to you, but a group of fifth-tier experts can easily take you down, so you still need to be wary of attacks."

Luo Feng nodded; what the teacher said made a lot of sense.

Even if he is strong, he is still in danger of dying if he is too arrogant.

Not to mention, all this strength is just on paper. He hasn't even fought the Lord of the Universe yet. Who knows what it would be like if they actually fought?

Thinking of this, Luo Feng vaguely understood his teacher's intention, so he said, "Teacher, don't worry, I will act carefully."

After hesitating for a moment, he asked again, "However, facing the encirclement and attack of many universe lords, I can't just stand by and do nothing. What if I accidentally kill someone? —"

"Don't worry about that," said the Mountain-Sitting Guest. "The higher-ups of the human race are aware of your situation, so they won't take action, or if they do, they'll only make a move."

"As for those alien alliances, most of the universe lords who dare to attack you actually have avatars, so you can deal with them normally."

Even if you kill someone, the opponent will only lose one clone at most.

At this point, the Mountain-Sitting Guest looked at his disciple with a half-smile: "Most of those who can become Lords of the Universe cherish their lives very much. You don't think that killing a Lord of the Universe is a simple matter, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng breathed a sigh of relief: "Since Master says so, then this disciple has no more reservations."

"You little rascal—" The mountain dweller shook his head with a smile, then took out a blood-red bead.

"This is the Blood Cloud Pearl, which can help you completely transform into the appearance of the Blood Cloud Palace Master to conceal your identity."

"And this Blood Cloud Palace, a top-tier flying palace treasure, is now yours too."
