Chapter 361 - 1 Bottleneck

A drop of water enveloped Luo Feng, traveling at high speed through the Primordial Space.

“Every time I observe the Primordial Space, I feel shocked.” Luo Feng watched the outside, being able to see from afar a vast Source World. In the blink of an eye, the droplet had already left that Source World behind.

“We beings within the Braided Cage must have the protection of a world. Either we live in the Source World, or in the world created by Senior Yuan and others.” Luo Feng thought, “If we are outside a world, it won’t take long before we perish.”

The Primordial Space is infinitely vast, containing endless violent Primordial Force. This force is not like the refined and gentle force of a ‘Primordial Crystal’, it constantly erodes life.

Only by leaping out of the Braided Cage can one survive long-term in the Primordial Space.

“Even what I observed of the Primordial Space is not even a ten-thousandth of the real Primordial Space.” Luo Feng, in his hometown, the Land of Origin, had also carefully observed the Primordial Space using the Eye of Life and Death.

Under the observation of the Eye of Life and Death, the Primordial Space is magnificent and colorful. Layers of space are breathtaking, with energy passing through countless layers of space, generating more types of energy and evolving various creatures.

Without the Eye of Life and Death, at this moment, Luo Feng observed only darkness in the Primordial Space and occasionally large entities.

“Hmm?”

Luo Feng saw a whirlpool of mist, roughly the size of one-tenth of the Land of Origin. From the whirlpool extended a misty head, gazing distantly in Luo Feng’s direction.

“From the size, it should be a High Level Primordial Life,” Luo Feng guessed.

During transmission, one occasionally encounters a High Level Primordial Life.

Encountering a World Level Primordial Life is extremely rare.

Of course, for those like Luo Feng who haven’t leaped out of the Braided Cage, judging strength is simple—look at size!

In legend, those slightly smaller than an entire Source World are at the Primordial Ancestor level, the most terrifying existence.

Those larger than the Land of Origin are estimated to be World Level Primordial Life.

Comparable to a small part of the Land of Origin is generally High Level Primordial Life.

Of course, this judgment might have errors! After all, some powerful beings might deliberately shrink their size. But for those like Luo Feng who haven’t escaped the Braided Cage, the ability to discern is limited.

“The Dark Sacred Realm is here!”

The droplet surrounding Luo Feng shot straight towards a special world.

This world, entirely black, shimmered with a hint of dark red. It was much smaller than a Source World.

“Swish.”

The droplet instantly entered the interior of the Dark Sacred Realm.

…

The Dark Sacred Realm, at the top of the towering Holy Mountain.

At the peak was a dark lake, from which Luo Feng flew out and landed beside it.

“Dark Sacred Realm?”

Luo Feng felt the suppressive force of the entire world. The suppressive power was comparable to the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, and his Late Stage Divine Emperor ‘Life and Death Dao’ could remain stable in the Dark Sacred Realm without modification.

“My Life and Death Dao already gradually traverses all worlds,” Luo Feng thought.

“Friend, a Flying Boat will arrive shortly to take us to the five cities of the Dark Sacred Realm.” A cultivator nearby said with a smile. The Dark Sacred Realm is more dangerous, and few cultivators dare to act alone, generally opting to ride the official Flying Boat.

Luo Feng looked over and saw more than fifty cultivators gathered, with varied auras, but at least of Late Stage Divine Emperor The Enlightened level.

“Thank you.” Luo Feng responded with a smile.

Then he directly broke through the void and flew away.

Swish!

The figure of Luo Feng flying away blurred, then flew to the horizon, eventually disappearing completely.

This scene left the fifty-plus cultivators shocked.

“In the Dark Sacred Realm, to shuttle through the void over short distances?”

“This, isn’t it something only a Pinnacle level existence can achieve?”

“At the Pinnacle level, only some can do it!”

Some cultivators were visiting the Dark Sacred Realm for the first time, while others had been there multiple times, but all were aware of the difficulty of ‘short-distance space travel in the Dark Sacred Realm’.

To achieve this step, without a doubt is among the most terrifying existences in the Dark Sacred Realm.

“Black clothes, black hair, his appearance… Among the Pinnacle level in the Dark Sacred Realm, I’ve collected intelligence on all the ones with a bit of fame, but this one isn’t in my intelligence.” An old man said in confusion.

“I don’t recognize him either. Of the five cities in the Dark Sacred Realm, I’ve never heard of this Pinnacle existence.” Other cultivators were also puzzled.

In the Dark Sacred Realm, there are only five gathering cities of cultivators altogether.

In each of these gathering cities, the Pinnacle level generally has great fame. Collecting basic intelligence on them is relatively easy.

…

Luo Feng had already obtained detailed intelligence on the Dark Sacred Realm from Yuan Xiang Palace Master and the cultivator team. After leaving the Transmission Holy Mountain, he directly headed to the gathering city ‘Chengfeng City’ where the cultivator team was located.

Chengfeng City is the city closest to the Transmission Holy Mountain among the five cities of the Dark Sacred Realm! This was also the reason Yuan Xiang Palace Master sought their aid initially.

“Phew.”

Luo Feng landed.

Although he chose ‘Chengfeng City’ as the first city to anchor himself, Luo Feng was not in a hurry to proceed; he was filled with curiosity about the entire Dark Sacred Realm.

“The number and quality of Low Level Primordial Life in the Dark Sacred Realm far exceed those in the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm.” Luo Feng was somewhat expectant, “Even heard that occasionally Primordial Prisoners appear.”

Primordial Prisoners are High Level Primordial Life with sealed power.

Apart from being imprisoned in large-scale Primordial Halls, a few Primordial Prisoners can also be found in the wild! Their powers are completely suppressed, each discovery of a Primordial Prisoner attracts cultivators to form teams to hunt them down.

“In the Dark Sacred Realm, acting alone at the Peak Level is quite dangerous.”

“But for me, the threat is rather nominal.”

Luo Feng walked on the ground.

The Biomimetic Destruction Eye on his forehead also observed in all directions.

Having taken the ‘Hundred Tribulations Heart Essence’, with a thinking speed boosted by three thousand times, and in a constantly inspired state, it lasted for most of an era. Such cultivation efficiency is stronger than Luo Feng’s normal couple of millennia of practice.

Thus, during the previous retreat, Luo Feng’s Life Path and Destruction Path encountered some obstacles, yet still reached the ‘Half Primordial Level’.

However, improving the ‘Life and Death Dao’ became difficult.

Luo Feng slowly progressed from the ‘Late Divine Emperor Life and Death Path,’ absorbing the nourishment of life and destruction, starting smoothly but gradually becoming harder until he was stuck in a bottleneck there.

Stuck in a bottleneck, unable to move forward! Only then did Luo Feng shift to perfecting the ‘Undying Blood Sea Body’, ‘Biomimetic Destruction Eye’, and other Secret Techniques.

“I am still some distance from reaching the Half Primordial Level in Life and Death Dao, just stuck in a bottleneck.” Luo Feng also feels the challenges other cultivators encounter, when hitting a wall in understanding, unable to progress.

Nonetheless, compared to the battle in Yulan City, Luo Feng’s accumulation in ‘Life and Death Dao’ is deeper. Moreover, the Half Primordial Level Life and Destruction Paths contribute to it, naturally elevating his realm much. The powers of various Secret Techniques have significantly increased.

“Hmm? I’ve discovered a Primordial Life team.” Luo Feng’s Biomimetic Destruction Eye can now see farther, and he spotted a team in the distance.

It was a team of the Primordial Wild Hoof Clan.

“In the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, Primordial Wild Hoof usually act alone, rarely together in groups of three to five. But here, there’s a team of 82 Primordial Wild Hoof acting together?” Luo Feng gazed, “Among them, seven are at Divine Emperor Perfection Level, seventy-five at Late Stage Divine Emperor Level?”

A team like this, if it encountered Wei Yang Palace Master strength, likely wouldn’t last a single exchange.

Luo Feng interestedly walked over.

With a step, he traveled through a space fissure and arrived nearby.

“Hmm?”

82 Primordial Wild Hoof noticed Luo Feng almost simultaneously.

“A lone cultivator?”

“Kill.”

“Kill him!”

These Primordial Wild Hoofs didn’t hesitate, in the Dark Sacred Realm’s environment, Low Level Primordial Life and cultivators have fought endlessly; killing has long become instinct.

“Boom~~~~” As the Primordial Wild Hoof Clan moved, countless blue thunders condensed in the Void, like water, pouring from heaven, and struck down toward Luo Feng like watery thunder.

Luo Feng stood still, letting the thunder strike; yet, these watery thunders couldn’t touch a strand of his hair, blocked by an invisible force.

The speed of the Primordial Wild Hoof Clan was initially very fast, attacking Luo Feng in unison. But upon noticing their released thunder couldn’t hurt a single strand of Luo Feng’s hair, this scene made them all tremble, and every Primordial Wild Hoof began slowing down, preparing to escape without hesitation.

“Since we’ve met, don’t leave.” Luo Feng reached out his hand.

His palm turned into a large furry claw, which instantly pierced the Void, covering a vast area ahead.

The space of heaven and earth was divided, trapping the Primordial Wild Hoof team in that isolated space.

“Phew.”

Luo Feng withdrew his hand, in his furry palm were the 82 imprisoned Primordial Wild Hoofs.

In Luo Feng’s palm, the Primordial Wild Hoof Clan team seemed like mere toys, devoid of any resistance.

“Buzz.”

Each body remained intact, but their Life Cores silently split open, dying one after another.

“Meeting is fate!” Luo Feng promptly stored all these bodies into his Storage Treasure.

This Low Level Primordial Life team posed no threat to Luo Feng indeed.

According to Luo Feng’s own estimation, in the battle of Yulan City, he could suppress four Super Limit Level entities alone! Today, he can suppress ten by himself! He alone can rival a Peak Level team.

“But my current strength is far from invincible.” Luo Feng is well aware of this.

Invincible is a whole level above Peak Level.

At least equating to twenty or thirty Peak Level existences, that’s the minimum threshold for invincibility!

In truth, if the Spiritual Will emerges from the Braided Cage, Peak Level before such existence would be powerless under the will’s crushing.

Luo Feng walked to a lakeshore, suddenly sat cross-legged, contemplating the puzzles of cultivation.
