Luo Feng watched the departing Gui Yi Knight and felt a little regret. He simply could not comply this time, and while things might not seem any different on the outside, there was bound to be a knot formed in their hearts.
"What a pity," Luo Feng said quietly. "My soul type true treasure, Tower Pearl, is one of the treasures from the Star Tower and already recognizes me as its master. Universe knights who try to merge with it will die! If it was an ordinary soul type true treasure, temporarily loaning it to Gui Yi Knight wouldn't be a big deal. Anyway, the Original Star opens for 1,000 eras. I can also wait for a few hundred eras. My power is bound to get much stronger. Who knows? I might even become a universe knight."
"Luo Feng." Bloody Wing Knight walked over. "I think, you should lend it to Gui Yi Knight. Gui Yi Knight is of a different status. It is not easy for him to make such a request."
"Haha! That goes without saying." Luo Feng laughed and shook his head.
It wasn't because he did not want to him lend the treasure. He couldn't.
"It's up to you," Bloody Wing Knight said good-naturedly. "You are quite ambitious."
"Well, I would like to give it a shot," Luo Feng replied.
Indeed, Luo Feng wanted to experience what it was like on the mysterious Original Star. But he knew his power still did not make the grade.

Time flew by, and many universe knights approached Luo Feng, wanting to borrow his true treasures. Naturally, most great beings would think that Luo Feng would not want to enter the Original Star. Yet, they all were met with rejection.
Of those who approached Luo Feng, some were friends, some were close acquaintances, and others were complete strangers.

News of how the earliest batch of universe knights was rejected when they went to Luo Feng to borrow his true treasures spread fast. Almost all the universe knights came to learn of it. Blade River Emperor Luo Feng actually wanted to venture into the Original Star, and anyone who wanted to borrow his true treasures could banish all thoughts of it. Conversations on the topic were common.
"Luo Feng wants to enter the original star?"
"He is merely an undying fighter. Although he is said to be impressive, he is still just a secondary universe knight... Yet he owns so many true treasures. In the Original Star, he will be a walking treasury! Any supreme beings from the other races will attack him as soon as they meet him. Isn't he courting his doom?"
"If he wants to die, what do you care?"
"Going into the Original Star at that level is purely suicidal!"
"Let's see what his end shall be when he enters the Original Star."
"It is okay for him to die. But if he dies, the true treasures will land in the hands of the other races. That will be a loss for our entire race—a most egregious sin!"
"Fret not. He will not die so easily. Primal Chaos City Leader values him a lot. He will help him. Who knows? Primal Chaos City Leader may even arrange for two other universe overlords to form a team with him..."
There was indeed quite a crowd of universe knights who either found Luo Feng's very presence an eyesore or were jealous of him. These universe knights were always fighting hard to obtain valuables to offer their race so they could earn Contributions in exchange for valuables and resources they needed for themselves. Yet, as a sector lord, Luo Feng could obtain soul type true treasures... Of course, this would cause the other universe knights to develop a great deal of resentment, discontent, and even hostility toward him.
