Swallowed Star
Swallowed Star - Chapter 665

The grass patch shook violently as the mountain like golden horned beast landed in it. It’s scales revealing traces of gold blood, and parts of its scales were even damaged as golden blood flowed from its eyes and nose.

Immediately, a torrent of world energy swiftly wrapped around the entire golden horned beast body and began to recover its injuries.

In the outside world, Laos world’s Beast God canyon.

Luo Feng who was sitting crossed legged like the other hundred million warriors in training suddenly let out a low noise of pain, both hands gripping hard at the stones on the ground, crushing them to dust.

“Your majesty?”

“Your majesty Luo Feng, are you ok?”

Dylan and Si Fan Qi who were sitting crossed legged beside him were shocked. They both discovered that Luo Feng was in pain.

Luo Feng didn’t answer, he gripped the ground hard, the veins on his forehead throbbing.

“Hu.” He let out a breath and opened his eyes, clearly fatigued as he looked at Dylan and Si Fan Qi, “It’s nothing, don’t worry.”

The two exchanged glances.

Nothing?

It would be weird if it was nothing. He was simply sitting there, under the surveillance of two great undyings, he was definitely not attacked. However, under such circumstances, he was actually in pain, it was simply too strange. Luo Feng was a universe warrior, he wouldn’t fall sick for no reason, it was impossible.

“Looks like his Majesty has some secret.” Dylan thought.

“This human Luo Feng has some secret he’s not willing to share.” Si Fan Qi thought so too.

Luo Feng sat there and looked up, gazing at the incredibly huge sleeping beast god statue, shocked within.

“Why.”

“I was simply carving the scales of the small beast god statue, yet I was hit by a formless pressure that not only acted on the golden horned beast’s body but even its soul. Even my human and mosha souls were affected. How could this be?” Luo Feng found it hard to believe.

He had already completed carving the larger sleeping beast god statue. Yet, why was there a problem in carving the small one!

And the golden horned beast was in his internal world, which was its own territory. Hence, it could never be attacked by absolute warriors. What’s more, Dylan and Si Fan Qi were beside him…

“If I wasn’t attacked by other warriors, what was I hit by?”

“If I wasn’t attacked, there’s no way I would be so heavily injured.”

Luo Feng frowned and pondered.

“The golden horned beast is within the internal world, even so it was heavily injured. The formless pressure affected both the physical body and soul, and was extremely terrifying.” Luo Feng recalled the feeling before and couldn’t help but shudder. It was a feeling where he couldn’t even resist. “There’s only two explanations!”

“The first one is that there’s a being far beyond my imagination, stopping me from carving this little beast god statue, hence he punished me.” Luo Feng thought. “The second one is that if it wasn’t a warrior that stopped me, then it may be the universe laws itself pressuring me.”

The universe was pressuring Luo Feng.

Right.

According to what he understood, the entire universe was bound by laws, like if there was a split in space etc, it would naturally repair itself. The moment one accelerated to light speed, it would travel into the dark universe etc! These were all the physics of the laws of the universe. And if his actions before had triggered or went against these laws, there would be repercussions.

Within the primal universe, one had to follow these laws.

“The universe has special laws, anything that goes against it would have repercussions.” Luo Feng thought. “I’ve seen things that go against them, like the metal nameless manual on earth, it obviously has the ability to go against the foundations of the laws.”

That great being was able to create a technique that went against the universe laws itself.

However Luo Feng…

Obviously against the universe laws themselves, he had only a hair’s worth of understanding. Hence, he couldn’t avoid the repercussions.

“These are the two possibilities.”

“Which one is it though?” Luo Feng thought. “An absolute warrior punishing me? Such a possibility is very low, because he would have to get past elder Si Fan Qi and even attack the golden horned beast within my internal world. To do so, it would be a being far beyond my imagination. And that level of being…is there a need for him to observe me?”

Even though Luo Feng was confident in himself, he wasn’t arrogant.

He wasn’t at a level of which such a being would bother to take notice of.

“And I only got hit when I was carving the small beast god statue.” Luo Feng thought.

He came to a conclusion.

There was a 90% chance of it being the laws pressuring him!

…

“Hu.”

After making the conclusion, he let out a sigh of relief. The universe was vast with trillions of races, producing countless powerful races. However, the laws were still fair without any bias. Even the inherited memories of the golden horned beast mentioned the existence of the universe laws, obviously these laws…were in place to stabilize the entire universe.

It wouldn’t immediately kill any life.

At least within his inherited memories, it never mentioned the universe laws killing anybody.

“My actions before had touched the baseline of the laws?” Luo Feng looked up at the huge beast god statue, getting excited within.

The baseline of the universe laws, what did it mean?

It meant that the secret within the beast god statue, was an absolute pinnacle secret, one that would render intervention from the universe laws themselves.

“If I can comprehend this huge secret, it would be just like Xi Luo Duo said, I’d become an invincible being, that would be true.” Luo Feng thought. “It’s no wonder over the countless years none have been able to comprehend this sleeping beast god. After all, this sleeping statue…is the same life form as the little statue.”

“Universe pinnacle secret.”

Luo Feng was really excited now.

Because he had felt…that he had gotten an incredible encounter!

The beast god statue may have a guidance path to becoming an invincible being in the universe! Even if one was as confident as Luo Feng, he was very clear how hard it was to become a powerful being. Humanity, gold horn race etc, these beings have been in the universe for countless years, yet the number of universe knights are still so few.

Then, beings like Xi Luo Duo, a super being that led an entire race, how rare was a being like him.

At least in the history of the gold horn race, there was but one.

“My little beast god statue is obviously much more valuable than this big one.” Luo Feng thought. “I had no problems carving the bigger sleeping one. However, I received punishment from the universe laws when I carved the little one. Also…the small statue obviously has a unique charm, much like a lifelike beast god. And I got this statue from where it used to live, the Blood River continent. Hence, there is a high possibility that it is the original. This huge statue however, may have been carved by some super being.”

…

After realizing what the beast god statue represents, Luo Feng was very clear he had to grab hold of this opportunity!

“The huge beast statue should be a low level statue.”

“The small statue should be a high level one.” Luo Feng deduced within. “Carving the big one is fine, and even though its aura is strong, it has no charm within.”

“Then!”

“I’ll take a bit at a time and study this huge statue’s scale veins. When my strength is enough, I’ll study the small statue.” Luo Feng thought. “This small statue was also left behind by some great being. Naturally if someone could carve it and leave it, it is possible to withstand the universe laws.”

Luo Feng was clear that he was but a little ant amongst humanity, and humanity was but one of the pinnacle races of the trillions of races in the universe.

Compared to the universe laws.

He was simply too small.

“Begin.”

He looked at the huge statue in the beast god canyon, releasing his spirit energy to feel every scale’s veins. Even though he had successfully carved out a similar statue, it had no aura at all, Luo Feng had to figure out why.

“Hm?”

“Ripples?”

As his spirit energy carefully scanned the veins, not like his quick overall scan before, he dug deep in and felt each vein.

Gradually, Luo Feng could feel ripples of universe laws within the veins. It wasn’t gold, wood, water, fire, ground, wind, lightning, light, time or space, but rather a ripple that made one shudder within.

A formless pressure that was made from these ripples.

“So the wonder is here!”

“How can the veins of the scales make these ripples. Hm, these scale veins seem to be continuous…” Luo Feng slowly began to notice some things.

Actually, whatever he just noticed, the many generations of warriors of the gold horn race and humans had all discovered long ago.

Otherwise it wouldn’t garner so many warriors gathering here to keep studying it.

…

Within his internal world.

As his earth body was carefully analyzing the huge statue, in the grass patch within, the golden horned beast was once again carving another sleeping beast god statue.

“I was wrong before.”

“The carving should be completed in one continuous motion. All of the over 90 thousand scales should be carved out in one slice, forming a wonder of the origin law that triggers the gold, wood, water, fire, ground, wind, thunder, light, space and time universe ripples.” Mosha Luo Feng looked at the golden horned beast carving out the statue.

Mosha Luo Feng was watching the carving.

The earth body was studying the sleeping beast god statue.

Occasionally Mosha Luo Feng would study the little beast god statue and feel its charm within, letting the other two bodies feel its presence too.

…

Studying it over and over so that he could feel it over and over.

The principle was an old dull way to study the origin laws, which was to replay one powerful warrior’s technique over and over, according to the way he unleashed it. Be it one time, ten thousand times, trillions of times…naturally, as time passed one would feel the law ripples too.

This was a dull and stupid way.

Not studying the wonders of the law, but only the way to unleash it. This method was set so that one would never completely comprehend the laws.

However Luo Feng understood that the secret within this statue may be even harder than comprehending the time or space laws, maybe even much harder than becoming a universe knight.

The universe knight level was already so far away from him.

To comprehend this secret must be even further away.

Since that was so.

Then he’ll use the stupid way, 1 time, 10k times, trillion times, replaying.

“This replaying technique doesn’t work well for the others mainly because this sleeping statue doesn’t have the imagery and charm of a true beast god.” Black clothed Luo Feng looked up at the golden horned beast carving. “However I have an accurate comparison.”

Mosha Luo Feng looked down at the tiny statue in his hand.

It was simple.

While carving, he would let the feeling of the beast god in the tiny statue emanate over and over, so that while the beast was carving…

There would be a form and presence.

Only through that way would it be complete. This was also why Luo Feng believed that using the stupid method to study this statue was the most practical way to help improve his level of strength.

“I’m not aiming to comprehend its wonders right away. Even if I comprehend only just a small bit of it, with that I would be satisfied. When I get strong enough, then I’ll look more into it.” Luo Feng thought that way, knowing oneself was extremely wise.
