Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin-Chapter 303 - 11 Return to the Land of Origin

Having read the intelligence reports, Luo Feng had a rather clear understanding of the various forces operating in the open and in the shadows within Yulan City.

"Even the Elders have to rely on the three Hall Masters," Luo Feng mused secretly. Yulan City had hundreds of millions of cultivators and millions of Divine Emperors; it was such a massive piece of flesh that one wouldn't be qualified to partake without substantial strength.

"As for a newcomer like me who doesn't stand out, I can only rely on hunting," Luo Feng smiled, without taking it to heart.

Having received such high rewards in the Infinite Space, it's clear that the Infinite Space itself recognized his talent.

As for the future, Luo Feng was naturally confident.

...

Luo Feng began his purchasing since he had the Illusion Realm Maze that could store treasures, he wasn't worried about theft. After all, several million Primordial Crystals were a huge sum for newcomers, but among Divine Emperors... indeed, it was nothing to mention.

"My goodness." Luo Feng's Biomimetic Eye of Destruction opened between his eyebrows, observing a leaf in front of him. It was a piece of remains from a Low-Level Primordial Life known as the 'Chaotic Devourer,' which was a rather large group of Low-Level Primordial Life, and this particular remain possessed the strength of 'Middle Stage of Divine Emperor'.

"What's the lowest price for this piece of remains?" Luo Feng turned to the attendant.

The attendant still had a smile on his face: "Each piece of remains has a detailed description and a price next to it. It is clearly stated that this piece costs 5,000 Primordial Crystals."

Luo Feng looked at the attendant, "I am asking for the lowest price! I am buying in bulk."

These remains came from various sources, and different vendors had different asking prices. Naturally, Luo Feng wanted to purchase as much as possible at the lowest price.

"For a total purchase of 500,000 Primordial Crystals, you can have a 10% discount. For a total purchase of 5 million Primordial Crystals, you can have a discount of 15%," the attendant said, "That's the lowest we can go."

Luo Feng nodded.

Based on the intelligence he had gathered, if the transaction volume was particularly large, of course, one could negotiate a lower price. However, his 'vast fortune' wasn't significant enough to warrant an exception from the vendors.

"I'm still too poor," Luo Feng said, looking at the remains, "I can only afford to buy the cheapest variety of Low-Level Primordial Life remains."

Remains like a piece of scale, contained secret patterns that naturally weren't nearly as profound as the Life Core and other vital parts. Those important parts had uses in Artifact Refining and alchemy and were far too expensive.

"Their prices are fair."

"I need a batch of goods," Luo Feng said to the attendant, waving his hand, and a detailed list appeared in front of him, "This list adds up to 520,000 Primordial Crystals."

Upon hearing this, the attendant immediately beamed with joy; if their clients made a purchase, they would also benefit.

"A 10% discount totals 468,000 Primordial Crystals," the attendant said enthusiastically, "I will get your goods ready right away."

Soon.

Luo Feng paid a pile of Primordial Crystals and received a storage bag filled with a large amount of cultivation materials.

...

It took Luo Feng just one day to visit every vendor in Yulan City. Once he had determined the goods he wanted, with his realm, he could naturally calculate the best way to purchase them.

In the end, after spending a total of 3.22 million Primordial Crystals, he returned to his residence contentedly.

"Brother Luo Feng," in the public garden of the cave mansion, Luo Feng saw Di Fu and Emperor Ming, who were drinking and chatting. Di Fu greeted him warmly, "How was your first hunt outside the city?"

"Emperor Qing has a wealth of experience, and the hunt went quite well," Luo Feng smiled.

"Congratulations," said Emperor Ming beside them. He was somewhat envious; he too had joined a team comprised of 'Early Stage of Divine Emperor' Bloodline Cultivators, who were not well-regarded by the real hunting teams of Yulan City, so they had to band together.

The team was still recruiting and it would probably take several epochs before setting out.

"I wonder what it would be like when I go hunting," Emperor Ming thought to himself. He also had plenty of intelligence about the outside of the city. On one hand, Emperor Qing provided him with information, and on the other hand, these Early Stage of Divine Emperor Bloodline Cultivators also exchanged information.

They were generally weak and very poor! Their goal was to join forces and kill a Low-Level Primordial Life of the 'Early Stage of Divine Emperor'.

If they killed one, it would be considered a success.

Because they were so poor, the plundering teams couldn't be bothered with them. Those Early Stage of Divine Emperor Bloodline Cultivators might have powerful friends!

Killing a group of paupers would yield little, and could potentially bring trouble. The plundering teams didn't want to do this kind of work!

"Brother Luo Feng, I found a job in the 'Nine Ringed World Tower,'" Di Fu said joyously. Having been in Yulan City for so long, he had finally passed the entry test of the Nine Ringed World Tower and found work.

"Nine Ringed World Tower?" Luo Feng understood, "That's a good place, congratulations!"

"Ha ha, thanks to Emperor Qing for providing enough information, I also purchased some heritage knowledge from the True Witch sect and managed to pass the entry test," Di Fu said with a smile.

The master of the Nine Ringed World Tower, who is also one of Yulan City's Elders, was known for his expertise in Formation in the city, ranking among the top few. However, he claimed to be a practitioner of the 'True Witch' sect. According to the classification of Yulan City, those who haven't absorbed the Primordial Bloodline but ponder the essence of the Dao can also be considered a branch of the Enlightenment Seeker Sect.

"Is Brother Luo Feng back?" Emperor Qing appeared in the distance.

Luo Feng nodded.

"Brother Luo Feng, after this hunt, I plan to go into closed-door cultivation for some time. Next hunt, perhaps in two to three hundred epochs?" Emperor Qing looked at Luo Feng.

"I was also planning to go into serious closed-door cultivation," Luo Feng nodded, "I'll go out again after two to three hundred epochs."

Each hunt was a walk on the edge of life and death.

So it's common for strong individuals from the Source World to digest their 'harvests' from each hunt before venturing out again.

If they are strong beings that came from infinite worlds, they are even more cautious and careful without avatars.

"Alright, I will notify Brother Luo Feng after I exit closed-door cultivation." Emperor Qing smiled and nodded as he was used to habitual seclusion; each time yearning to make another step forward.

Although he had already stepped into the middle stage of Divine Emperor, stepping in with the other foot still required more accumulation.

...

Emperor Qing went into seclusion, Di Fu went to work in Yulan City's 'Nine Ringed World Tower', and Emperor Ming frequently went out to meet up with teammates, plotting a hunting expedition, albeit still in the preparation process.

"I am going to the Holy Mountain!" Luo Feng quietly boarded an official Flying Boat to the Holy Mountain from Yulan City.

"The official Flying Boat costs 1000 Primordial Crystals per trip. Much more expensive than the price last time Emperor Qing asked for." Luo Feng silently reflected; within the entire Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, there was only this official Flying Boat for transport once every epoch.

The official Flying Boat would first pass through thirty-five cities, carrying a large number of passengers, and ultimately reach the Holy Mountain. Then, it would return from the Holy Mountain carrying new cultivators and would pass through each of the thirty-five cities again on its return trip.

The rules in the thirty-five cities were strict; Divine Emperors could pilot their own Flying Boats to the Holy Mountain, but were prohibited from taking passengers.

However, at the Holy Mountain, the rules of the thirty-five cities did not apply, as Divine Emperors could bring some new cultivators back to their own cities when they piloted their Flying Boats back. When they took passengers, the cost was generally only a tenth of the official price.

After all, in terms of speed and safety, it was somewhat inferior to the official one.

"Emperor Qing is skilled in the Dao of spatial paths and adept in Formations, daring to pilot the Flying Boat alone." Luo Feng thought to himself; his cultivation of the Life and Death Path was not on par with Emperor Qing in terms of travel.

Hoo.

Inside the official Flying Boat, the cabin was vast, with more than five thousand passengers onboard. Luo Feng glanced around and sensed that the majority were at the Divine Emperor level from their aura.

After all, those below the Divine Emperor level were too poor; the cost of a round trip was quite expensive.

The pilot of the official Flying Boat was a late-stage Divine Emperor Bloodline Cultivator, slightly stronger than Emperor Qing in terms of piloting. But this Flying Boat was a very special Secret Treasure, with a flying escape speed that was much faster.

Along the way, the Flying Boat passed by city after city.

During the journey, some cultivators disembarked, while others boarded, all with a consistent fee of 1000 Primordial Crystals.

"Relying on the official Flying Boat, one can also reach any of the thirty-five cities." Luo Feng silently observed this scene.

Even with a great detour, after merely two days, the Flying Boat had already reached the Holy Mountain.

At the Holy Mountain.

Over half of the passengers flew out.

Luo Feng looked towards the majestic Holy Mountain and also saw the deep pool at the foot of the mountain, where more than a hundred figures congregated.

"This is the official Flying Boat of the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm." In front of the Flying Boat, the towering figure of the pilot 'Lank Divine Emperor' flew out, his aura terrifying and vast.

"The cost per ride is 1000 Primordial Crystals or an equivalent value item," Lank Divine Emperor said, "You can reach any city among the thirty-five cities of the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm by taking a Flying Boat."

More than a hundred figures began to board the Flying Boat one by one.

But Luo Feng came to the deep pool at the foot of the mountain.

"Whoosh."

He jumped down.

After diving into the deep pool, Luo Feng quickly sensed a dense array of spatial coordinates, immediately locking onto the most familiar one—the Land of Origin. Afterwards, Luo Feng, enveloped by a droplet of water, swiftly left the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm.

...

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!

The droplet, enveloping Luo Feng, sped through the Primordial Space at a high velocity. From afar, a massive Source World appeared, whooshing into view and then whooshed by, out of sight.

"Although this is the second time experiencing such a scene, it's still quite astonishing." Luo Feng admired the view outside.

Following the same route as on the way here, he returned.

Finally, a familiar Source World appeared in his field of vision.

"The Land of Origin," Luo Feng revealed a pleased expression.

Hoo.

In the blink of an eye, this droplet entered the interior of the Land of Origin.

In a secluded area of the Tianji Icefield on the Land of Origin, within the gloomy deep pool in a valley, a droplet fell into it, followed by Luo Feng flying out of the deep pool.

"I'm back," Luo Feng looked around; this time only an Avatar had returned. His other Avatars remained in Yulan City.

"I've brought back all the treasures I purchased." Luo Feng was quite exhilarated.

A significant amount of Low Level Primordial Life Remains were far too inefficient for comprehension in the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm.

On the Land of Origin, with the observance of the Eye of Life and Death, and the possibility of exchanging for treasures from the Infinite Space Treasure Vault, that was the most efficient method.

"Hoo."

With a thought, Luo Feng locked onto Huyang City distantly, and with one step, he was already back in Huyang City.
