Chapter 1603 Luo Feihong
The towering buildings rise from the ground, all reaching into the clouds. Observing them from high in the sky feels quite different.
Then within these buildings, countless warships, flying swords, and war chariots move from top to bottom, resembling innumerable ants. Cultivators with lower realms would even feel dizzy at a glance.
Chu Mo also noticed a problem: the higher up, the higher the status of those people seems to be. From their attire to the aura, demeanor, and presence they exude, they all surpass those below. Two faint rays of divine light shot from Chu Mo's eyes towards the very bottom.
Indeed, the people walking on the streets at the very bottom don't have high realms. Chu Mo even saw some young people in the Primordial Infant stage strolling along the streets, oblivious under the gazes shot down from the upper world above.
Chu Mo sighed lightly: It seems that everywhere there are classes, there are differences.
Although Canggu City is huge, it's completely different from here. Looking at the gigantic towering buildings before him, Chu Mo thought to himself: It probably takes quite a while for these people to fly from the bottom of these high rises to the top. Those with lower realms indeed cannot fly up.
A vast defense shield covers the entire massive ancient city from the skies above, like a huge pot placed over the entire One Side City.
Therefore, the fierce winds from the high skies can't blow into the city. Similarly, the energy consumed by this defense shield daily must be an unimaginably large number.
Chu Mo shook his head slightly, retrieving that ancient map from his sea of consciousness.
This map is very powerful; as soon as Chu Mo's spiritual waves touched it, he could distinctly feel the map emanating a faint force, encompassing the entire city. Then, the map's scene changed, the universe previously displayed in its entirety instantly turned into a zoomed-in view of here!
Including every street, every high-rise building... all appeared clearly in Chu Mo's spiritual conscious sea.
"Truly impressive!" Chu Mo quietly praised in his heart.
Thinking of what Gu Bingbing had previously told him, about the residence of the direct descendant of the Luoshui Family, after confirming the location on the map, he flew directly towards there.
Still quite far away!
The young prince of the Luoshui Family lives right in the center of One Side City. He is not the City Lord, but the City Lord here is his subordinate.
This young man is named Luo Feihong, and he is extremely renowned among the younger generation of the Luoshui Family. He is only over four hundred years old this year and already advanced to the ancestral realm a hundred years ago. This is quite a rare cultivation genius in the history of the entire Luo Family.
Luo Feihong looks exceptionally handsome, often dressed in white robes, with long hair flowing as he roams around. Rarely seen practicing hard, yet his realm keeps swiftly advancing. This is true talent, something to be envied but impossible to acquire.
Luo Feihong cultivates a reincarnation Great Dao, reportedly a path that hasn't been successfully cultivated in the Luoshui Family for over ten epochs. By Luo Feihong's generation, the reincarnation Great Dao had fallen to the point where no one cultivated it anymore.
It's not that this Dao is bad; in fact, it's quite profound! Cultivating to a high level can lead to insights into some mysteries of reincarnation. But getting this Dao refined to that level is extremely difficult; the Luoshui Family once had an ancestor who cultivated reincarnation Great Dao to the mid-late stage. His combat power was overwhelmingly strong, rarely experiencing defeat.
Before Luo Feihong stepped into the ancestral realm, he chose reincarnation Great Dao. Many family elders advised him against attempting such a path, as failing in cultivation would not only waste time but also deal a huge blow to confidence.
Even several patriarchs of the Luoshui Family disapproved of Luo Feihong, a rarity of talent, cultivating reincarnation Great Dao. But Luo Feihong stood firm in his choice, not listening to them.
Now, a hundred years have passed, he has cultivated the reincarnation Great Dao to its later stages!
With each gesture, that reincarnation power is enough to plunge opponents into an abyssal plight.
This also allowed Luo Feihong to successfully outrank his cousin Luo Feihu among the younger generation of the Luo Family, becoming the foremost.
Even countless elders are far from being his match, only watching as his silhouette moves further away.
Therefore, anywhere Luo Feihong appears, whatever he does, attracts countless attention.
But recently, many people are baffled by Luo Feihong. Because there are rumors outside now, saying that Luo Feihong actually fell for a cultivator from the Investiture of the Gods of a universe on either side of the Tunnel.
Investiture of the Gods cultivators... in the eyes of the big figures of the Ancient Tunnel Clan, are almost synonymous with slaves. Of course, there are other names like war slave, war servant, etc.
Anyway, they're slaves!
No matter how astonishing a cultivator was, once on the Investiture of the Gods, it equals to completely losing freedom!
The godhead suppressed in their sea of spiritual consciousness would linger forever like a mark of shame!
And that godhead also functions to suppress cultivation. When it first descends, it brings a new feeling to the cultivator, as if truly stepping out of the Three Realms, beyond the Five Elements. Feeling themselves reborn!
Once you enter the Tunnel, that feeling will slowly disappear, replaced by... a cultivation speed that is countless times slower than before!
Of course, the change in divine nature also has a process. It doesn't manifest all at once. Therefore, even those astonishingly talented cultivators like the monkey and the Sky Patriarch haven't noticed this matter yet.
Gu Bingbing certainly knows, but she can't say anything! Because she has no power to change it all! Nor does she dare to change it!
So, she can only try to provide these people with more resources, so slow cultivation can be compensated with resources to eventually catch up.
In short, cultivators with divine nature in their spiritual sea, within the Tunnel, within any family, no matter his status, are actually viewed as servants by those major figures. They're people who can't hold their position.
Under such circumstances, Luo Feihong, a peerless talent of the Luoshui Family appearing once in endless years, has actually taken a liking to a woman on the Investiture of the Gods? Even though this woman is transcendently gorgeous, even though her demeanor is so noble that even the princesses of the Luoshui Family feel ashamed... the Luoshui Family's upper echelon still won't allow it!
Not to mention giving blessings, it is something not even to be considered.
This time, it's entirely different from Luo Feihong's past choice to cultivate the reincarnation Great Dao. Hence, there are too many voices of opposition filling Luo Feihong's ears, and even attempts to assassinate the woman he loves.
This enraged Luo Feihong tremendously, and he personally killed two assassins sent by the Luoshui Family's upper echelon. Then, feeling annoyed, he took the girl to One Side City.
This place is entirely his domain, and the City Lord here is his trusted subordinate.
In other words, he left the Royal City of the Luoshui Family, wanting to find some peace. Simultaneously, deep within Luo Feihong's heart, there has always been a rebellious thought; he wants to find a way to shatter the divine nature!
He truly likes this girl, the kind of liking with full devotion. Before her, he had never been moved by any other woman. He has rejected the family's many proposals to find a marriage match for him. Fortunately, his status is unique, and no one forced him.
The people of the Luoshui Family never dreamed that Luo Feihong, whose standards are extraordinarily high, would eventually choose a woman from the Investiture of the Gods.
Disgrace!
Shame!
The ultimate humiliation!
No face left!
This is no joke, the feelings within the upper echelon of the Luoshui Family are just like these few above.
Otherwise, they wouldn't risk angering Luo Feihong by sending people to assassinate that girl.
The girl's name is Chuchu, as irresistibly charming as the name suggests.
"Chuchu, what are you looking at?"
At the center of One Side City, at the top floor of the tallest skyscraper, stood a devastatingly beautiful girl in a blue dress, quietly looking out the window, gazing into the distance.
Behind her, a man dressed in white, extremely handsome in appearance, with a gentle smile on his face, softly asked.
The girl didn't turn back, instead she said with a hint of coldness, "Young Master Luo, give it up."
The man's eyebrows twitched slightly, his voice still exceptionally gentle but resolute: "No."
"Why bother? You should feel it; I don't like you. I only feel gratitude towards you, but no affection. It's not worth turning against your whole family because of me. You're not a child anymore, you know very well whether it's worth it or not." The girl said quietly.
"Whether it's worth it or not is my business. If I think it's worth it, then it is." The man said calmly, walking over and standing beside the girl, looking into the distance, saying lightly: "For the kingdom, I can raise my arm and call out, causing countless deaths; for the one I love, I can similarly be angry and reverse Heaven and Earth. As long as I'm willing."
The girl's face showed a faint smile: "You know, this trick doesn't work on me, I won't be moved."
The man also smiled: "Chuchu, sometimes I really wonder if you sprang out of a rock? I've treated you like this, yet how can you not feel anything for me?"
"Of course, I didn't spring out of a rock, I have parents, flesh, blood, affection, and loyalty. I just don't like you, what's strange about that? Just like these years, haven't you rejected countless girls who liked you?" Chuchu's side face was beautiful to the extreme, as she too gazed at the scenery afar.
"Is it because of that piece of divine nature in your mind?" Luo Feihong lightly sighed: "Such things truly can't be changed by us. Moreover, among your batch of Investiture of the Gods cultivators, except for those two who escaped, you are the only one who knows the divine token is no longer in the hands of the Luoshui Family. I once calculated, and that divine token has completely disappeared without a trace. If I can find it, I will destroy it in front of you!"
Chuchu smiled slightly: "Brag away."
