Chapter 403 The Mountain Dweller: Little guy, Luo Feng will surpass you sooner or later!

Boom~~

The gates of the Pantheon opened, and almost all the cosmic lords stood up.

The other cosmic venerables were seen talking amongst themselves as they walked toward the golden gates of the Pantheon. As soon as they stepped through the gates, they were all teleported away.

The lords of the universe, on the other hand, were teleported away directly from the Pantheon.

Zhou Ze greeted Giant Axe and the Chaos City Lord, then logged off.

Inside the Holy Master's Mansion, on the top of a small building in Zhou Ze's main residence, he gazed at a spatial rift, slightly lost in thought.

"I never expected that this period would lead to a coalition of other ethnic groups—" Zhou Ze thought to himself with a slight sigh.

As the plot unfolds, the alliance against Luo Feng by other ethnic groups will only be formed when Luo Feng obtains the inheritance of Duan Donghe.

Of course, the pressure that humanity faces now is far less than it was back then.

The giant axe has not yet fallen, and the human race has not yet obtained the inheritance of the Broken East River. Although the insect race, the demon race, and the mechanical race have united, other races and forces are still watching from the sidelines.

In the original story, when the giant axe fell, other races in the universe launched a war, determined to occupy the entire territory of the human race and force them to cower in the initial universe, afraid to come out.

It was because of Luo Feng that they were able to turn defeat into victory by relying on the Star Tower, thus establishing the status of the human race in the primitive universe.

"Take your time—"

Zhou Ze remained remarkably calm. Not to mention that Luo Feng was far stronger than in the original work at this time, he would definitely be much stronger than his contemporaries in the future.

Besides, there's still him.

It has to be said that Zhou Ze's mentality has changed. In the past, he always used Luo Feng as his backup, but now he uses himself as his backup.

Time always slips away unnoticed.

Thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside the Star Tower.

-

Inside the grand hall, surrounded by countless sealed stars, the floor was covered in a layer of blood. Luo Feng sat there, his skin torn open in agony, blood gushing out. The regenerative abilities of a World Lord-level body were incredibly strong; the inexhaustible energy provided by his primordial core allowed him to continuously recover, yet he continued to bleed—

His body was in a state of collapse, and this was just a reaction to the excruciating pain of his soul being torn apart. This shows just how intense the pain of Luo Feng's soul being torn apart was!

In this state, Luo Feng could be said to have completely fallen into a coma, with only a lingering obsession remaining. If this obsession were to dissipate, Luo Feng's will would instantly crumble and his soul would completely vanish.

Puti stood there watching Luo Feng, completely shocked. He couldn't imagine how Luo Feng, who had reached his limit over the past five thousand years, could still stubbornly hold on.

"This Luo Feng is almost as good as his teacher, the Human Saint Master, in terms of potential for mental cultivation—" Puti exclaimed.

The excruciating pain of his soul being torn apart had reached its limit and could no longer be suppressed. Luo Feng could no longer immerse himself in cultivation. At this moment, he had stopped cultivating. Apart from resisting the soul tearing apart, the only thing his consciousness and will could do was cling to one obsession.

"How could I, Luo Feng, fall like this!"

"I want to surpass Teacher Zhenyan, Teacher Hun Dun, and even Teacher Zhou!"

"I absolutely must hold on, hold on to every single moment!"

"persist in----"

Luo Feng's soul had begun to shatter, yet it was forcibly condensed by an invisible will and consciousness—shattering and condensing—struggling.

When Luo Feng accepted the Star Tower's recognition as his master in the original story, his obsession was with his family. But now that Zhou Ze is here, he knows that even if he dies, he can be resurrected, and even if he dies, his family will be taken care of by Zhou Ze.

Even without Zhou Ze, there were Hong and Lei Shen, so his reluctance to part with his family could not be his obsession.

Luo Feng's current obsession is to become stronger, to persevere, and to surpass. Once he dies, even if he is resurrected, he will lose the opportunity he gained, and he will never be able to obtain the Star Tower, such a powerful treasure, again. He will also lose the Nine Tribulations Manual and the chance to become the leader of the Earth lineage, and will be completely reborn as an ordinary person.

He simply could not accept this consequence!

Luo Feng was no longer able to think; his soul, teetering on the brink of collapse, could no longer bear the weight of thought.

It's just an obsession!

This keeps the entire soul from completely collapsing.

"Still persisting, even though their souls have long since collapsed," Puti sighed.

"Child, you're too tired. If you can't take it anymore, give up. As the eldest disciple of the human race's holy master, even without receiving the Star Tower's inheritance, with your talent, comprehension, and willpower, you might surpass me in the future and become the strongest in the universe."

With his power as the Lord of the Universe, he had long ago seen through the state of Luo Feng's soul. He was already starting to feel sorry for Luo Feng, this child, for being able to hold on until this point.

"Even with the inheritance of life and death, he has only lived for a mere ten thousand years."

"Too young, like the human saint, he's still just a child." Puti shook his head slightly. He was the first servant of the Mountain-Sitting Guest. In the most ancient times, in the earliest stage of the evolution of this vast primordial universe, he followed the Mountain-Sitting Guest.

His lifespan was incredibly long; in his eyes, the limit of a World Lord's lifespan, "1000 epochs," was at most considered adulthood.

"The human race's holy teacher once said that the most difficult thing to improve is one's willpower. Even he couldn't provide effective guidance. The improvement of one's willpower can only be achieved through one's own hard work and self-cultivation!"

"This child's talent in mental will is unprecedented. Coupled with being the eldest disciple of a human race's holy master, the probability of him breaking through to become the strongest in the universe is even greater than the probability of other invincible kings breaking through to the Venerable realm!"

Puti looked at Zhou Ze, who was unconsciously trembling and making sounds, his expression distorted, and his skin torn, and sighed slightly.

"I don't know how Master Zuoshanke managed to create such a wondrous place as Earth, producing one human saintly master after another, and prodigies like Luo Feng!"

At this moment, Puti realized that even after following the Mountain Guest for trillions of years, he still couldn't understand him at all.

Inside the Star Tower, in the myriad forbidden spaces, the immortal beings from all corners of the universe were suddenly shocked.

"What happened?"

"Why is the forbidden area shaking?"

Boom~~

The vast forbidden space seemed to be shaken by a giant, all experiencing a sudden tremor. At the same time, the Star Tower, which was nine light-years high, trembled slightly.

-

Meanwhile, in an incredibly distant and dangerous place, deep within endless air currents, a solitary palace, faintly emitting bursts of blue light, floats suspended.

Inside the palace were servants, all of whom were supreme beings of the universe.

"Um?"

On the throne in one of the palace's main halls, a towering old man, over 90,000 kilometers tall, stood there with a serene expression. Suddenly, his face changed slightly, and he turned to look in a certain direction, as if he could see Luo Feng in the Star Tower through endless time and space.

"The Star Tower's most basic recognition of its master has lasted for so long! Luo Feng has actually persevered. Luo Feng and Zhou Ze, this master and disciple pair, have truly exceeded my expectations time and time again!"

"Ha ha----"

"After billions of years of waiting, a leader has finally been born for the human race on Earth—"

To be honest, the Mountain Lord has been somewhat depressed these past few years. Back then, Zhou Ze was born from the Earth lineage and obtained an opportunity that even he couldn't see through. Moreover, he possessed talent, comprehension, and opportunities that even he, a God King, found hard to believe.

But Zhou Ze refused to become an apprentice.

Fortunately, there is Luo Feng. Although he is not as good as Zhou Ze, he is still a very good inheritor who can accept the Star Tower's inheritance.

"Hmph, little guy, just you wait and see. Your future disciple will definitely be no worse than you, and under my tutelage, Luo Feng will even surpass you sooner or later!"

The man sitting on the mountain felt somewhat indignant.

Whoosh!

The mountain dweller has vanished into thin air.
