Capítulo 128: Taking a Master
Luo Feng stood within his cave dwelling, looking at General Xuan Jiao in the sky, and without hesitation, he immediately said, "It is my great fortune that the Emperor is willing to accept me as a disciple. I am naturally willing."
Luo Feng had already prepared for the possibility of being accepted as a disciple by the Emperor and had thought it through carefully.
Among the thirteen emperors of the Yan Feng Ancient Kingdom's royal family, Emperor Chu's strength was terrifying. The few recorded instances of his actions in history all involved sweeping away other ancient beings. He was relatively low-key and had no notorious reputation, usually focusing on cultivation.
Becoming Emperor Chu's disciple was something Luo Feng was willing to do.
After all, he understood very well that with a master's assistance, he could avoid many detours.
Emperor Chu's Palace.
"Very well, follow me," General Xuan Jiao finally showed a smile. With a wave of his hand, an invisible force wrapped around Luo Feng, and they flew together.
"Brother Luo, congratulations," Marquis Chu Yu also congratulated him on the way.
"Thanks to you, Brother Chu Yu, for bringing me to the capital," Luo Feng expressed his gratitude.
"Haha... With Brother Luo's strength, you would have risen quickly even without my help," Marquis Chu Yu said.
Soon, under the guidance of General Xuan Jiao, they all arrived in front of Emperor Chu's palace.
"You all may withdraw. I will take Luo He to meet the Emperor," Emperor Chu said.
"Yes." The guards retreated, and Marquis Chu Yu smiled slightly outside the palace, not continuing to follow.
Then, Luo Feng followed General Xuan Jiao into the palace that seemed to blend into the chaotic darkness.
A moment later.
Luo Feng and Xuan Jiao entered an ancient hall, where they immediately saw a burly figure sitting cross-legged. This burly figure sat there like the center of an endless universe.
It felt as if the universe could perish, but he would not.
His breath was more terrifying than the might of the heavens and earth.
Even Luo Feng felt as if he were facing the essence of the Primordial Path of Life.
Luo Feng understood that the person before him must be none other than Emperor Chu.
"Your Majesty," General Xuan Jiao saluted, "I have brought Luo He."
Emperor Chu nodded slightly, and Xuan Jiao immediately retreated from the hall.
The hall now held only Luo Feng and Emperor Chu.
"Luo He," Emperor Chu said with a smile as he looked at Luo Feng, "Recently, I've learned about your past. You come from the Original Universe?"
Luo Feng was startled but didn't hide it. He immediately saluted, "Yes, I do indeed come from the Original Universe."
Emperor Chu smiled and said, "The beings of the Original Universe are incredibly strong. To grow strong enough to become a True God is extremely difficult. To reach the Chaos Realm Transcendent level... is truly extraordinary."
"But do not take it lightly. The number of ancestors among today's cultivators is small, but nearly all of them emerged from the Original Universe. They came to the Origin Continent and, after countless ages, gave rise to so many beings," Emperor Chu said. "The original natives of the Origin Continent almost all reside in the Eastern Domain."
Luo Feng also knew this.
"Let me ask you, are you a reincarnated cultivator?" Emperor Chu asked again. Even though the Yan Feng Ancient Kingdom possessed advanced methods, there was no way to break through the supreme rules of operation.
"No," Luo Feng shook his head.
Emperor Chu nodded.
"Among the thirteen Emperors, I have accepted the fewest disciples, only two," Emperor Chu said as he looked at Luo Feng. "I choose my disciples carefully. First, I value talent, and second, I consider whether the disciple's temperament aligns with mine. Your talent is exceptional, and I find your character quite likable, which is why I decided to accept you as a disciple."
Emperor Chu continued, "After getting this offer, you must carefully consider whether you truly wish to become my disciple."
"Becoming a disciple is a great karmic bond."
"The relationship between master and disciple is second only to that of close family," Emperor Chu said. "The master chooses the disciple, but the disciple also chooses the master! You must think it through carefully. Once you become my disciple, other top beings in the Origin Continent will no longer be able to take you as their disciple."
Luo Feng naturally understood that the relationship between master and disciple was a significant karmic bond.
But how many of the top beings in the Origin Continent would actually want him as their disciple? Moreover, Emperor Chu was also known for his temperament, and some beings with heinous crimes would never be accepted as disciples by him.
"Disciple has thought it through," Luo Feng immediately knelt down, touching his head to the ground in a grand salute. "Disciple Luo Feng pays respects to Master."
"Luo Feng?" Emperor Chu was slightly startled.
"Luo Feng is my true name. Due to certain karmic ties, I have always used the name Luo He," Luo Feng explained, now that he had decided to become a disciple, there was no need to hide his true name.
"Hahaha... Good, good," Emperor Chu laughed. "From this day forward, Luo Feng, you will be my third direct disciple!"
"Luo Feng, do you need my help to resolve any of your karmic ties?" Emperor Chu asked.
"No need, Disciple can handle it," Luo Feng replied.
Emperor Chu nodded with satisfaction. "Since you are burdened with karmic ties, I will keep your true name a secret." He preferred to see his disciples solve their own problems.
"Since you have become my disciple today, I have prepared three gifts for you," Emperor Chu said as he looked at Luo Feng. "The first gift is that the two inheritances you have chosen, 'Eight Tribulation Life Form' First Tribulation and 'Seventy-two Swords of Annihilation' First Scroll, once you have mastered them, you will receive the subsequent inheritances for free."
"Of course, the inheritances I give you for free will not exceed the God King Ultimate Realm," Emperor Chu added.
Luo Feng was pleasantly surprised.
The entire content of those two inheritances would be provided for free up to the God King Ultimate Realm?
Currently, the 'Eight Tribulation Life Form' First Tribulation and 'Seventy-two Swords of Annihilation' First Scroll that he had obtained were at the God King First Realm level, each worth around 100,000 merit points. But advancing further... the techniques at the God King Second Realm level would require around 3 million merit points. Techniques at the God King Third Realm (Ultimate Realm) would require at least 100 million merit points.
To obtain these techniques, some guest officials had to fight tooth and nail for the Yan Feng Ancient Kingdom.
Two inheritances, valued at roughly 200 million merit points! As long as his cultivation reached that level, he could obtain them for free! This was the difference between an outsider and a direct disciple.
"The second gift I give you," Emperor Chu said as he looked at Luo Feng, taking out a stone box. When the box was opened, ten pale red fruits were inside. Just the scent of the fruit made Luo Feng feel his soul being nourished, and his thought process speed up several times. "These are 'Primordial Crystal Spirit Fruits,' a gift from the Ancestor to me. They are of little use to me now, so I will give you ten of them."
"The Primordial Crystal Spirit Fruits are cultivated from a tree grown with Primordial Crystal Jade, and the fruits it bears have miraculous effects in nourishing the soul. After consuming them, you will become more aligned with the supreme rules, and your comprehension will be greatly enhanced," Emperor Chu explained. "These are not products of the Inner World; they are extremely rare and cannot be exchanged for merit points, so be sure to use them sparingly."
"I suggest you take seven of the fruits while at the Chaos Realm level, and the remaining three when you reach the God King First Realm stage."
"Yes, Master," Luo Feng could feel the care his master had for him.
Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. "What weapon do you use most often?"
Luo Feng flipped his hand and took out the Blood Shadow Blade. "This blade."
Emperor Chu glanced at it. "It's a God King-level blade embryo, I see."
Emperor Chu thought for a moment, then flipped his hand and took out a mass of multicolored earth. He casually tossed it onto the Blood Shadow Blade, and the blade almost instantly absorbed it all eagerly.
"Originally, your blade embryo had the potential to reach the peak of the God King First Realm, but now its potential has been significantly enhanced. It may even reach the God King Ultimate Realm," Emperor Chu said.
"But the main material has been provided by me; you will need to acquire the auxiliary materials yourself. The most important thing about a blade embryo is that it must be nurtured by its owner. Here is a detailed method for nurturing a weapon." As he spoke, a stream of light fell upon Luo Feng, which was a secret technique for nurturing weapons.
Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. "Even as a direct disciple, you will still need to earn your merit points through your own efforts."
"Master has already done so much for this disciple," Luo Feng was deeply grateful.
Every one of these three gifts was extremely valuable.
"I am not particularly skilled at teaching disciples," Emperor Chu said as he looked at Luo Feng. "You must rely on yourself for the Primordial Path of Life, as it is not my specialty. However, the Primordial Path of Destruction... fortunately, that is aligned with my path. If you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me for guidance."
Luo Feng nodded. "Disciple understands."
"Is there anything you wish to ask now?" Emperor Chu asked as he looked at Luo Feng.
"Not at the moment," Luo Feng shook his head.
His understanding of the Primordial Path of Destruction was still in its early stages, far from the peak of the Chaos Realm. He was still in a rapid growth phase, so he would wait until he encountered real bottlenecks and challenges before seeking advice.
"Very well," Emperor Chu nodded with a smile. "As my direct disciple, you will have priority in choosing many important tasks. These tasks would normally be issued only to the royal family's First Marquis."
"Understood," Luo Feng nodded.
"Go now, cultivate well, and become a God King as soon as possible. Among my disciples, not one has yet become a God King," Emperor Chu lamented.
"Disciple will do his utmost," Luo Feng immediately
Luo Feng then left the small hall.
Looking at the chaos and darkness within the small hall, Luo Feng couldn't help but feel a bit excited.
The ten 'Primordial Crystal Spirit Fruits' that Master had given him, just by smelling them, provided great assistance to his cultivation. How effective would they be when consumed? Since arriving at the Origin Continent, he had never encountered such rare treasures!
Luo Feng could hardly wait to return and try one.
Inside the small hall, Emperor Chu watched as Luo Feng left.
"My third direct disciple," Emperor Chu thought, shaking his head slightly, "Unfortunately, my abilities are limited, and I cannot provide much guidance to my disciples in their cultivation."
Among the thirteen Emperors, there was 'Emperor Qing,' whose cultivation level was high enough that he could swiftly identify his disciples' problems, providing them with excellent guidance.
But as for Luo Feng? He could only provide some precious resources. The rest was up to his disciples.
"What does it matter to take on disciples?" Emperor Chu thought as he gazed at the vast universe within the small hall. "This Source World will eventually have an end. By that time, how many will still be alive?"
"Even the Ancestor walks alone in the darkness. Emperor Qing has also embarked on that path, and I hope to assist the Ancestor in the future."
"And as for the other twelve of you, while you may be powerful in the Origin Continent, what will you be outside of this Source World?"
"And my disciples, I'm afraid they may not even have the qualifications to leave the Source World."
"Treasure your time with us in this Source World," Emperor Chu thought, shaking his head heavily before closing his eyes to immerse himself in cultivation once more.
