Swallowed Star (All Chapters) Volume 6

Chapter 1067: A Technique Made in Heaven

"No way..." Ancestor was shocked as he looked down at a faraway spot. "How is it possible that he could comprehend the heart of the beast?"

Weeds grew all over the plain. There was a towering sculpture of a gigantic lizard positioned in a slight squat as though poised for takeoff. And at the back of the Gold Beast God sculpture, Luo Feng lay on a bed of scales, eyes squinting. He was looking in midair, where countless complicated gold threads of engravings flowed continuously.

His hundreds of millions of years of painstaking cultivation were no different from one another. In fact, Luo Feng had fallen into a unique state. He'd spent hundreds of millions of years studying the eight pictures of engravings of the Gold Beast God, where every picture of engravings represented a different aspect of the Gold Beast God. Eight pictures of engravings... Luo Feng felt as though he was looking at a different face of the Gold Beast God every day, and day after day, month after month, year after year...

The years went by. Luo Feng went on studying these eight pictures of engravings, and for a good many years, he felt as though he had the company of Gold Beast God every waking and sleeping moment of his life.

Currently, Luo Feng had lost himself to the 180 million years spent on studying these pictures of engravings. He forgot who he was. Now... he felt as though he actually was a beast god!

Joy, happiness, anger, rage, insanity... He was roaming the universe! He was fighting his enemies in bloody battles stretching to endless voids. The fighting extended to other galaxies... until finally, he unwillingly breathed his last.

Luo Feng lay unmoving, his eyes gradually closing. Only the Gold Beast God was real! All else was fabricated.

His sleep went on for a whole millennium.

During this millennium, even Luo Feng's original earthling body and his Remote Ocean body went into a deep slumber. No matter who tried, no one at all was able to contact Luo Feng! Over the course of 1,000 years, Luo Feng forgot his human memories; he forgot everything. In his deep slumber, he thought of himself as a beast god...

A millennium went by peacefully. Then Luo Feng opened his eyes.

"Is this the so-called 'Transformation of Things'?" asked Luo Feng. "Was it my illusion or was it reality?"

The moment he opened his eyes, he was in a trance-stupefied and unable to differentiate whether he was Luo Feng or a beast god. But quickly, he sobered up. Hundreds of millions of years' worth of human memories came flooding back and overrode the memories that he had collected while he was incarnated as the beast god.

"A beast god? What a magical feeling."

Luo Feng lay on the back of the Gold Beast God sculpture, reminiscing about the feeling of being a beast god, which was still so vivid to him. He felt as though he could go back into that state easily.

A beast god was an entirely different existence from that of humans. It was in a state that was detached, free, and true to its own nature.

At the apex of the mountain, Ancestor watched the entire episode, shaking his head amidst sighs. He found it all so ironic.

"The final bottleneck of the beast god path," he said. "'Heart of Beast God.' The most difficult stage to comprehend and the most difficult to find, yet he has mastered it?"

The beast god path, according to the Ancestral God School, was divided into a total of seven major inheritances. Upon figuring out the entire Beast God path, one would have attained the universe master level and become a pinnacle existence in the universe... Yet it was not that simple for one who wanted to become a universe master. Just as it was with the golden horned beasts' lineage, after countless eras, they only had a total of two universe masters. Similarly, the flaming star beasts' lineage had only one universe master.
