1098 The First to Study

Perfected Deity Eventide was originally cultivating in seclusion under Hallowed Venerable Styx.

However, she also learned of this news. Her expression was very complicated.

“Master, did you force the Hallowed Lord to do this?”

“No, this is the workings of fate. The eighth Chaotic Hallowed Venerable must appear. It’s not that I coerced Lin Feng, but that he knows its workings, and implemented this method in response. The Hallowed Lord is far wiser than you imagine. It’s a pity about your Third Senior Brother. If Easterly were as wise, he might not have taken the initiative to provoke the Nine-headed Taotie…”

Hallowed Venerable Styx shook his head. Lin Feng’s actions could indeed be considered “wise”. It was something neither he nor the other Hallowed Venerables had expected. They had originally thought that Lin Feng would hand over the Chaotic Origin Stone in a very “humiliating” manner. Unexpectedly, Lin Feng still controlled the situation in his own hands in the end.

Hallowed Venerable Styx rather appreciated Hallowed Lord Lin Feng’s course of actions.

“Then, Master, can I go and make an attempt?”

“Of course. How can I stop you when there’s an opportunity to attain the principle? However, if you join the Mutual Assistance Alliance, be loyal. The Hallowed Lord… has a bright future ahead of him!”

“I understand. I will be certain to follow Master’s instructions.”

Hence, Perfected Deity Evenide stood up, and stepped out of Holy City Styx.

There were many top-notch Perfected Deities like Perfected Deity Eventide. Most of them were the disciples or family and friends of the Hallowed Venerables. They all knew that this was a rare opportunity. Perfected Deity Ziji and the others were also eager to make an attempt, and rushed to the Mutual Assistance Alliance.

…

“Great Devil King, Hallowed Lord Lin Feng is publicly recruiting Perfected Deities. As long as they join the Mutual Assistance Alliance, they will have a chance to study the Chaotic Origin Stone. This is our chance.”

“That’s right, that’s right. The Abyssal Devils suffered heavy losses last time, but we can’t lose hope.”

“We must study the Chaotic Origin Stone no matter what! Especially Your Majesty the Devil King. It would be best if Your Majesty can study it personally. With Your Majesty’s cultivation level, you may be able to comprehend the Supreme Rule directly and become a Chaotic Hallowed Venerable. This way, our Abyssal Clan will completely gain a foothold.”

The three Greater Devils were now the only three Greater Devils left in the Abyssal clan. After hearing the news of the Mutual Assistance Alliance, all of them began to develop ideas.

They had never given up on coveting the Chaotic Origin Stone.

The King of Deception, Andre, had a profound gaze. He seemed to be staring in the direction of the Holy City Primum Mobile in the distance. After a long while, Andre said slowly, “Those Chaotic Hallowed Venerables won’t give me a chance to comprehend the Chaotic Origin Stone. However, you have a chance. No matter what, we can’t give up on the Chaotic Origin Stone.”

“Your Majesty, if you can’t study the Chaotic Origin Stone, how can we succeed?”

“That’s right. After all, we’re foreign lifeforms. I’m afraid even if we comprehend the Chaotic Origin Stone, we won’t be able to comprehend the mysteries within.”

“Only Your Majesty the Devil King can comprehend the Supreme Rule by force if you study it personally, and become a Chaotic Hallowed Venerable.”

However, the King of Deception, Andre, smiled slyly and said, “If you study it, it is equivalent to my studying it. Do you still not understand?”

One of the Greater Devils said excitedly, “Could Your Majesty intend to use the diabolic avatar? That’s right. Your Majesty can use the diabolic avatar to hide completely within our bodies. This way, even those Chaotic Hallowed Venerables won’t be able to discover us.”

“As long as we can study the Chaotic Origin Stone, it will be equivalent to Your Majesty the Devil King studying it. Once Your Majesty succeeds in studying it, comprehend the Chaotic Supreme Rule, and become a Chaotic Hallowed Venerable, so what if those Chaotic Hallowed Venerables find out? They can’t do anything to Your Majesty at all.”

“That’s right. We’ll head to the Mutual Assistance Alliance now and strive to join it. We have to obtain the opportunity to comprehend the Chaotic Origin Stone no matter what. I just hope that Hallowed Lord Lin Feng won’t stop us.”

“Hmph, if he really tries to stop us, Your Majesty the Devil King can just as well just kill him immediately and seize the Chaotic Origin Stone. I believe that by the time those Chaotic Hallowed Venerables find out, they definitely won’t dare to attack us for real. Otherwise, we’ll just perish together.”

These devils were all very insane. They were wandering lifeforms to begin with, and had endured all kinds of suffering in the Dark Domain. Now that they had finally entered a complete world, they naturally wanted to gain a foothold completely.

For this, they would not hesitate to pay any price!

…

Holy City Primum Mobile was already surging with people. All kinds of Chaotic Perfected Deities in the Chaos had already rushed to the Holy City Primum Mobile.

“Thank you for your trouble, Perfected Deity Ruyi!”

At this moment, Perfected Deity Ruyi was setting up a divine array for Lin Feng. This was Lin Feng’s request. The place to study the Chaotic Origin Stone was set in the center of the divine array. Even if fighting was forbidden inside Holy City Primum Mobile, the temptation of the Chaotic Origin Stone was too great. In order to deter people from taking the risk, they had to adopt the necessary preventative measures.

The top divine array master in Holy City Primum Mobile was Perfected Deity Ruyi.

“All right, once this divine array is set up, anyone other than the Hallowed Lord would be trapped for a period of time. Even if the Hallowed Lord personally takes action, they will at least be delayed for a period of time. It’s guaranteed that no one will be able to bring the Chaotic Origin Stone out silently,” Perfected Deity Ruyi said to Lin Feng with a smile.

“Haha, I naturally trust the divine array set up by Perfected Deity Ruyi.”

Perfected Deity Ruyi looked at Lin Feng with a complicated expression. Back then, he had done Lin Feng a favor. He had originally hoped that when Lin Feng became a Perfected Deity in the future, and had the strength of a top-notch Perfected Deity, he would be able to make Lin Feng fulfill his promise.

But now, after Lin Feng became a Perfected Deity, he was far more than just a top-notch Perfected Deity. He had actually become a Hallowed Lord in one leap, the only Hallowed Lord in the Chaos, and dominated the era!

How shocking was this? There had never been a Hallowed Lord in the Chaos, but Lin Feng had become a Hallowed Lord. Moreover, this Hallowed Lord was someone who could fight his way through the countering force of the entire Chaos, and establish his supreme authority.

No one dared to underestimate the Hallowed Lord. Hence, even though Perfected Deity Ruyi was very confident in his strength, he grew uncertain about his previous plan. Lin Feng had suddenly become a Hallowed Lord, and his strength far exceeded Perfected Deity Ruyi’s own.

Hence, Perfected Deity Ruyi did not mention the promise that he needed Lin Feng to fulfill for a long time.

“Perfected Deity Ruyi, don’t worry. The promise I made back then is valid at all times.”

Lin Feng thought that Perfected Deity Ruyi was worried about the promise he had made back then. Hence, he assured Perfected Deity Ruyi not to worry. However, the more Lin Feng said this, the more complicated Perfected Deity Ruyi felt.

“Moreover, Perfected Deity Ruyi has worked hard to set up the divine array this time. Are you interested in joining the Mutual Assistance Alliance?”

“Join the Mutual Assistance Alliance?”

Perfected Deity Ruyi was slightly stunned.

“That’s right, join the Mutual Assistance Alliance. The Chaotic Origin Stone has been placed in the divine array for some time. Unfortunately, the first person to study it has yet to appear. If Perfected Deity Ruyi is willing to join the Mutual Assistance Alliance, your contribution of setting up the divine array for the Mutual Assistance Alliance is enough. Hence, the first person to study the Chaotic Origin Stone would be you, Perfected Deity Ruyi. What do you think, Perfected Deity Ruyi?”

“What? You’ll allow me to study the Chaotic Origin Stone?”

Perfected Deity Ruyi’s eyes widened in disbelief. That was the Chaotic Origin Stone, the supreme treasure that all Perfected Deities dreamed of obtaining. Even Perfected Deity Ruyi did not have extravagant hopes of studying the Chaotic Origin Stone.

But now, an opportunity had really appeared in front of him.

“That’s right, it’s to study the Chaotic Origin Stone. Perfected Deity Ruyi, are you willing?” Lin Feng confirmed again.

“Yes, yes. How can I not be willing? I don’t think any Perfected Deity in the entire Chaos can refuse such magnanimity…”

Perfected Deity Ruyi’s entire body trembled. Even as experienced and knowledgeable as he was, he could not suppress the excitement in his heart.
