Swallowed Star (All Chapters) Volume 7

Chapter 1218: A Difficult Choice

Duan Dong River Wu's voice seemed to vaguely resonate within the main hall of the control room, which made the silence within the hall even more apparent.

Deer Bug Master, Liu Jiu Master, Shadow Dust Master, Sorcerer Sprite Master, Jittery Sea Master, and Luo Feng were all going crazy, and their eyes were filled with agony as they struggled on.

Deer Bug Master was in a dilemma amidst his struggles. "To go or not to go! I am from the holy land universe, an eternal being, eternally free from annihilation... If I go, I will be at risk of being annihilated! But if I choose not to go... I will forgo this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"How powerful is that ancient civilization?" Shadow Dust Master squinted his eyes, and the single-eyed shadow behind him was flashing and flickering. Apparently, the ripples of uncertainty he was feeling were extremely strong. "To be able to create the Universe Boat! Such a large quantity of items like the black-striped stone pillars, were only one out of the many items within the Universe Boat. This inheritance that Duan Dong River Wu is referring to—even when placed within the context of that ancient civilization—must be one-of-a-kind! What a valuable inheritance this must be... but for such an inheritance, the difficulty of obtaining it would be as expected..."

"A chance. The one and only chance—one and only chance!" Jittery Sea Master's eyes were filled with insanity. "Bestow upon me the chance."

"This time..." Liu Jiu Master's perfect face registered traces of hesitation.

All who were present were in turmoil.

The same was true for Luo Feng, whose entire body seemed to be going out of control as his godly power raged and surged, producing waves in his surroundings. He had thought the fight to be for the Boat of Mausoleum; who would have expected that... the Boat of Mausoleum was only a supplementary item? The more prominent part of it was that it contained the extremely powerful inheritance of the ancient civilization!

The inheritance was certainly an object of great desire! Yet going after it also entailed the risk of annihilation!

Luo Feng was aware that he might have another body. But given the means of this ancient civilization—who dared to make a remark like "those who covet after our line of inheritance must die"—its punishment surely would not deal solely with one body.

Luo Feng was silently considering his options. "Should I go or not? I, Luo Feng, have gone through merely a dozen or more eras of cultivation! Even without this opportunity, I believe, with my power, I will be able to become a universe master easily. I can still become a universe master later... there is still hope! But the moment I accept this inheritance, I will be volunteering for a perilous adventure! Should I take the risk or not?"

Luo Feng was caught in a dilemma.

"I only have the confidence that I can become a universe master. But I am clueless about how I can become a universe master! Even if I do become one in the future, so what? At most, I can live for as long as three reincarnation eras." Luo Feng quietly mumbled, "If I want true immortality, then I must achieve a successful breakthrough of a reincarnation era. What a pity. Throughout Universe Ocean, for countless eras, who has actually succeeded? Only the two holy land universes."

Luo Feng recalled the individual space within the chamber of the black token, where he saw that smooth and shiny stone wall filled with information left behind by generations of masters of that space.

First master... Second master... Third master...

Starting from Nine Mortal Master, to Five Chaos Master, then to Luo Feng! There was a total of 20,295 space masters! As for the actual number of space masters before Nine Mortal Master, no one knew. Based on the current total, it was clear that an overwhelming number of reincarnation eras had passed.
