***********************************

The high-level Hunyuan lifeforms of the Blood Crane Territory, who had all prostrated themselves in submission, suddenly felt a trace of power penetrating into their bodies, merging with the surface of their life cores and forming an incredibly profound mysterious secret pattern.

They could sense..... that this "secret pattern" was unfathomably more profound than their own bloodlines. The slightest activation of it would undoubtedly annihilate their life cores.

"Our life cores have been refined." The high-level Hunyuan lifeforms of the Blood Crane Territory also understood.

Among them, many had clones that had followed the Shadow Lord into the territory of the practitioners.

During their time there, they had long heard that the practitioner faction would refine the life cores of all captured high-level and world-class Hunyuan beings, ensuring they could never rebel or betray.

They also knew that only by having their life cores refined would the practitioner faction dare to employ them.

"We survived!" The Blood Crane Territory's inhabitants secretly sighed in relief.

Their greatest fear had been that this practitioner lord would deem them unworthy and simply annihilate them.

"From this moment onwards, I will command the entire Blood Crane Territory and lead it to the practitioners' domain," Luo Feng's voice boomed, resounding throughout the entire territory.

"We're going to the practitioners' domain?"

The inhabitants of the Blood Crane Territory realized that their entire homeland was about to be relocated.

"Rumble- "

The vast and immense Blood Crane Territory began to move slowly.

Soon after, shadow power spread outward, enabling the entire territory to perform short-range space-time teleportation!

"Too slow."

As he guided the Blood Crane Territory, Luo Feng shook his head slightly.

"The Blood Crane Territory is simply too massive. Even though the 'Shadow Power' it contains is adept at travel, its maximum traveling speed is still considerably slower than that of a world-class Hunyuan being."

Each short-range teleportation of the Blood Crane Territory covered only a tiny distance. A hundred such shuttles wouldn't even match the distance Luo Feng could traverse in a single step.

"At this speed, it would take about ten epochs to reach the practitioners' domain and arrive at the 'Dark Holy Realm'." Luo Feng calculated and felt somewhat speechless.

As a practitioner lord, even if he wasn't particularly skilled in travel, it had only taken him a little over a hundred days to journey from the practitioners' domain to this place.

Yet relocating the entire Blood Crane Territory would take ten epochs.

"This is already considered fortunate. Some mysterious realms can't even be relocated." Luo Feng knew this well.

Each mysterious realms had their own peculiarities.

Some are highly movable- for instance, Lord Xing Mang's "Time Star" could go wherever it pleased, often drifting across different timelines.

Some are completely immovable, such as the "Eternal Land", the "Abyss of Destruction", and other unique locations.

Places like the "Origin Land" and the "Blood Crane Territory" fell into a relatively normal category among mysterious realms- they could move, but their speeds are sluggish.

"Hah."

Luo Feng left behind an clone to guide the Blood Crane Territory while his main combat clone departed in an instant.

There are still many matters to attend to in the practitioners' domain.

Moreover, the Blood Crane Territory possessed near-infinite energy, allowing Luo Feng to instantly condense a main combat clone with a single thought.

He also had little fear that anyone would be foolish enough to attack him within the Blood Crane Territory.

Outside, his defensive capabilities are inferior to lords like Lord Wu Lan.

But within the Blood Crane Territory?

Even if a hundred Hunyuan Ancestors gathered, Luo Feng would fear nothing!

With just the energy contained within the Blood Crane Territory, he could repeatedly unleash "Origin Destruction".

..........

Luo Feng's main combat clone donned a blood-red robe.

"Whoosh-"

He traveled swiftly.

Although he was getting farther and farther away from the Blood Crane Territory, since he had already refined it, the territory's origin had become part of his life power, continuously empowering him with its powers.

This empowering power is the "Blood Sea Power", a fusion of "Blood Power", "Immortal Power", and "Shadow Power".

The amalgamation of these three supreme-tier powers, even when only partially utilized, felt endlessly profound to Luo Feng.

"Incredible!"

Clad in his blood-red robe and wielding the Blood Sea Power, Luo Feng could sense shadows across vast distances with a single thought.

Wherever physical matter existed, so too did its corresponding "shadow"!

Shadow Power is omnipresent!

Although Luo Feng is merely borrowing it, the range of his shadow-based teleportation is still far greater than before. Like a phantom, he traversed vast stretches of space-time in rapid succession again and again.

"My current travel speed should now be close to the mid-tier among practitioner lords?" Luo Feng thought, "Three times faster than before."

Previously, his speed had only been slightly faster than Lord Wu Lan's.

Now, he surpassed both Lord Wu Lan and Lord Nai Gu, approaching "Lord Jin's" level- likely about fifty to sixty percent of "Yuan's" speed.

As for Lord Xing Mang, Lord Mo Man, and Lord Ming Huang, their speeds far outstripped Luo Feng's current pace.

Among the infinite vastness of the Hunyuan Space, these three ranked at the very pinnacle.

"In terms of speed, I'm now mid-tier among practitioner lords. Compared to the Hunyuan Ancestors, though, I'd rank in the upper echelons." Luo Feng was quite satisfied with his current pace.

The larger one's physical form, the greater the resistance to space-time traversal. Given his size, achieving such speed is already remarkable- all thanks to the unique properties of the Blood Crane Territory's powers.

"My defensive capabilities have also improved significantly."

Luo Feng could sense that the Blood Sea power's greatest enhancement was to his resilience.

After all, the three powers it comprised were all defense-oriented.

In terms of vitality, Luo Feng wasn't overly concerned- it still couldn't compare to his "Hunyuan Life-Death Dao".

However, the Immortal Power imbued his physical body with a trace of immortality, drastically increasing its toughness.

The Shadow Power, meanwhile, granted his body partial shadow-like properties, allowing him to dissipate much of an enemy's offensive power as though it were passing through a mere shadow. Only thirty to fifty percent of an attack's full power would actually land on him.

Previously, he could withstand the combined attack of thirty-four Hunyuan Ancestors.

Now, Luo Feng estimated he could endure the siege of sixty to seventy Hunyuan Ancestors without much trouble.

Of course, compared to someone like Lord Wu Lan, who could casually shrug off the siege of Hunyuan Ancestors, there was still a gap.

"My strengths grow ever stronger," Luo Feng smiled, "But my offensive methods haven't improved much."

...........

It took Luo Feng's main combat clone only thirty-nine days to return to the Dark Holy Realm.

The Origin Continent's Origin World....

"Finally, I have some free time."

Luo Feng's territory no longer required his direct intervention. As for rebuilding the regions that had fallen during the war- that was the task of his world-class Hunyuan subordinates, high-level Hunyuan beings, and countless servants.

"Out of the 3,600 world-groups, only the hundred or so world clusters occupied by the 'Icepeak Faction' have not been recovered."

"The Icepeak Faction's strength is no less than that of the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction. Moreover, their twelve 'Undying and Immortal' existences make them, in some ways, even more troublesome than the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction." Luo Feng frowned slightly.

The Icepeak Faction is a loose alliance, but of the twenty-eight seats in the Eternal Land, they held twelve.

The Hunyuan Ancestors of the Innate Hunyuan Lifeform Faction still feared death- but the Icepeak Faction did not!

"It would be best to resolve this through negotiation." Luo Feng thought.

After having just concluded a major war, the practitioner faction was reluctant to engage in another conflict with the Icepeak Faction.

The cost would be too great.

Thus, the negotiations are being handled by Yuan.

"The Origin Continent has been rebuilt quite well." 

Luo Feng glanced at his homeland. In just over three epochs, the Origin Continent had undergone a heaven-shaking transformation.

The entire continent is now a hundred times vaster than before, yet it is now ruled by a single, absolute authority- the Galaxy Kingdom.

The Galaxy Kingdom's prestige spread across the entire Origin Continent and even influenced the 100,000 Original Universes!

In the past...

The Original Universe regions had been unable to discuss any information about the Origin Continent.

But after Luo Feng refined the Origin World, he rewrote the rules!

Now, all 100,000 Original Universes knew that upon reaching Void True God, one could traverse the Reincarnation Passage and arrive at the Origin Continent- the only way to reach it.

The core of the Galaxy Kingdom is the Galaxy Capital, a supermassive city formed by merging the former Huyang City and Galaxy Royal Capital, then expanding it on a grand scale.

The Galaxy Capital is now as large as an entire Chaos State.

Countless factions sought to establish roots here, wanting to be closer to the great Lord Luo Feng!

The Galaxy Kingdom is governed by three major factions, with the highest authority resting in the Nine Grand Administrators:
1: Xu Xin (Luo Feng's wife)
2: Luo Ping (Luo Feng's son)
3: Si Mo (one of the first lifeforms Luo Feng created)
4: Original Ancestor (Yuanzu)
5: Chaos City Leader
6: Giant Axe (Yu Fu)
7: Morosa (Luo Feng's soul servant)
8: Zuo Shan Ke (Luo Feng's master)
9: Di Chu (Luo Feng's master)

Originally, Luo Hai (Luo Feng's second son) was supposed to take the third seat, but he refused, finding administrative duties too burdensome.

Thus, Si Mo- who had immense influence within Luo Feng's faction- took his place.

The position of Giant Axe had also been contested. Hong (Luo Feng's sworn brother) held a lofty status in the Original Universe's human race, and Zhen Yan (Luo Feng's teacher) was also highly qualified.

However, Hong is Giant Axe's disciple and supported him, while Zhen Yan deeply admired Giant Axe and also backed him.

Given Giant Axe's immense influence among the human race's upper echelons, he ultimately became one of the Nine Grand Administrators.

Even if the Nine Grand Administrators are weak in combat, they each possessed an "Administrator's Decree", personally forged by Luo Feng.

These decrees protected their bodies and souls while granting them Ultimate God King Realm power- enough to handle any threat within the restricted environment of the Origin Continent.

Beneath the Nine Grand Administrators are Seventy-Two Deputy Administrators, all personally approved by Lord Luo Feng.

As for those below them?

Luo Feng no longer intervened.

The Galaxy Capital housed the estates of God Kings, God Emperors, and the Deputy Administrators, while the Grand Administrators' estates are even larger.

At the very center of the capital stood the estate of Lord Luo Feng himself.

"Finally, I have time to create the complete inheritance."

Half an epochs after returning from the Blood Crane Territory, Luo Feng finally created a complete Inheritance:

"Hunyuan Life-Death Dao"

This inheritance contained multiple chapters, such as:

"Flame of the Soul"

"Immortal Body"

"Hunyuan Power"

"Life Origin"

And other chapters....

It us a complete path, starting from the most basic stage of God King level and extending all the way to the Lord level.

The other seven lords had all left their legacies in the Origin Land, where any lord could freely study them.

However, while one could learn from these legacies, they could not truly master them.
For example:

Luo Feng pursued the "Hunyuan Blade Dao", focusing on destruction.

Lord Jin's "Hunyuan Destruction Dao" also emphasized destruction.

Yet their mentalities, spiritual wills, and paths are completely different- even incompatible in many ways.

When Luo Feng first became a lord, Lord Jin had been extremely enthusiastic toward him.

But after sensing Luo Feng's hostility toward "Calamity-Type Practitioners", Lord Jin grew distant and never again mentioned visiting the Abyss of Destruction together.

"Luo Feng, I've seen the legacy you left in the Origin Land." Yuan's voice transmission carried a hint of amusement, "Once we fully reclaim our territory, I'll make sure to study it thoroughly."

"I have been busy refining the Blood Crane Territory- only recently did I finalize the legacy." Luo Feng replied before asking, "By the way, Brother Yuan, have you approached the Icepeak Faction yet?"

"I'm on my way there now." Yuan answered.

Luo Feng nodded.

He could only hope the negotiations would go smoothly- and that the practitioner domain could be peacefully restored.
