Chapter 151 Ranking and Penalty (End of this Episode)
In the ancient country of Yanfeng, the border city 'Xiangjie City' is as prosperous as ever, and countless practitioners live their normal lives.
The underground palace of the tutelary fort.
Luo Feng sat cross-legged in the hall. Five billion black rivers formed the 'Black River World' that suppressed the entrance to the world. The creatures of the Hunyuan bloodline had long since left.
"I face the origin of life head-on. The deeper I comprehend, the more I vaguely sense that countless lives will eventually be destroyed. It turns out... this huge cage governed by the supreme rules will also usher in great destruction." Luo Feng smiled.
After learning this secret, Luo Feng didn't care at all.
When he was on Earth, he was still weak. People were born, grew old, got sick and died, and many people lived for no more than a hundred years.
And what about him?
He had grown up all the way to this day, and even experienced the reincarnation of the original universe! And the destruction of the entire source world, it is unknown how many reincarnation eras there are from now.
“Being able to live to see the destruction of the entire source world is something to be proud of. There is no reason to be unwilling.” Luo Feng had long been satisfied, and he enjoyed every day of his practice.
Cultivation is never for the final moment.
But every moment during the practice!
I am comprehending the essence of how the world works and improving the essence of my own life. This process itself is filled with endless joy.
……
Time passes, and the era of the heavenly mission is about to expire.
Luo Feng also left an avatar at the Blood Spirit Star, which carried three billion Black Rivers. Luo Feng was also worried that when he was in charge of suppressing the entrance to the world, someone would take the opportunity to fight for the Blood Spirit Gold Pearl. Three billion Black Rivers were enough to make other Chaos Realm Transcendents give up.
The Blood Spirit Star had indeed ushered in its third wave of outbreaks! During the outbreak, Luo Feng used the Black River World to cover the Blood Spirit Star, and this time he obtained a total of 53 Blood Spirit Gold Beads.
Chu capital, Luo Feng cave.
"Brother Luo He, today is the last day of the Heavenly Grade Mission, and the rankings will be announced soon." Di Chuyu and Luo Feng sat opposite each other. At this moment, Di Chuyu was very nervous. After all, the resources of the Heavenly Grade Mission were too important to him.
"Don't be anxious. You have already tried your best. No matter how anxious you are, you can't change the ranking." Luo Feng was drinking leisurely.
"I am the undisputed first in this Blood Spirit Gold Orb mission, and I am far ahead." Di Chuyu looked at Luo Feng, "During the third eruption of the Blood Spirit Star, the other first-class marquises all wanted to buy those Blood Spirit Gold Orbs. Brother Luo He, you didn't sell a single one, and those first-class marquises might hold a grudge against you."
Luo Feng continued to pour the wine and said with a smile: "Would I care about them?"
Di Chuyu also laughed.
He knew the strength of his friend! Even among the first-level God Kings in the Origin Continent, Luo He was considered one of the strongest.
A first-class marquis of the royal family? There are thirteen branches of the royal family, and there are nearly a hundred first-class marquises!
"This Heaven-level mission has three sub-tasks in total. My two sub-tasks are the third and fourth," Di Chuyu said. "Brother Luo He, the sub-task you are helping with is definitely the first."
"I wonder which subtask it is when the three are combined." Di Chuyu thought.
"I heard that Chu Yinghou got first place in both of his sub-tasks?" Luo Feng asked.
"Ah."
Emperor Chuyu nodded, "Chu Yinghou did not use any external objects, but comprehended the great Dao just like Brother Luo He. Both of his subtasks this time were amazing. He should be the next Divine King of our Emperor Chu royal family."
Luo Feng nodded. Emperor Qingdu had praised Chu Yinghou before, which showed his potential for comprehension.
"Of course, in terms of comprehension potential, he is far inferior to Brother Luo He." Di Chuyu sighed, "Brother Luo He, you created your own secret method to become the first in the Chaos Realm. All forces in the entire Origin Continent recognize you. It won't be long before you become a Divine King."
Chu Yinghou's potential for comprehension is considered outstanding among the royal family.
However, Luo Feng is absolutely number one among all the Chaos Realm masters.
"It's not that easy to become a God King." Luo Feng shook his head. He comprehended the three branches of the Great Dao of the Origin of Life and the two branches of the Great Dao of the Origin of Destruction. Even with the help of the Hunyuan Crystal Spirit Fruit and practicing some secret techniques, he still couldn't make a breakthrough.
Time passes slowly.
Not only the Emperor Chu lineage, but all the first-class marquises of the thirteen royal lines of the ancient Yanfeng country are waiting for the ranking of the heavenly-level tasks.
At some point -
The thirteen royal clans of the ancient Yanfeng nation jointly published the rankings of the heavenly-level tasks.
"It's out, the ranking is out." All parties are paying attention to the news.
……
The capital of Chu.
“The Liangjie Palace is such a waste!” Marquis Chu Chang looked at the final ranking. There were seven first-class marquises in the Emperor Chu lineage, and Marquis Chu Chang ranked fourth.
If we can get into the top three, resource allocation will be better.
The resources of the fourth place have indeed been significantly weakened.
"My own individual tasks are fourth and fifth. The Blood Spirit Golden Pearl task is third." Chu Changhou shook his head. He was originally of middle level, so the Two Realms Palace chose him.
Only when we are not sure of our own success will we be willing to allocate enough resources.
"If I didn't make it into the top three, I don't need to give any share to the Two Realms Palace." Chu Changhou snorted secretly. On the one hand, he cursed the Two Realms Palace for being incompetent, and on the other hand, he also felt that he had earned some money in vain.
……
Luo Feng Cave.
Di Chuyu and Luo Feng were together, waiting for the final ranking.
"Second!" Di Chuyu was so excited that the wine glass in his hand fell down. He looked at Luo Feng excitedly, "I'm second! I'm a newly promoted first-class marquis, and I can actually be second!"
"Chu Yinghou is number one?" Luo Feng asked.
"Well, he's first, I'm second." Di Chuyu was very excited, "Chu Fenghou is third, Chu Changhou is fourth, Chu Jihou is fifth, Chu Linhou is sixth, and Chu Yuanhou is seventh."
Luo Feng nodded, which was also expected.
Chu Yinghou, both individual sub-tasks are first, and the Blood Spirit Golden Pearl task is second!
Di Chuyu ranked third and fourth in two individual sub-tasks, but he was definitely first in the Blood Spirit Golden Pearl task.
Chu Fenghou, the two individual sub-tasks are the second and the third respectively, and the Blood Spirit Golden Pearl task is the fourth one which is taken by Palace Master Yuan Xiu.
These are the top three.
Chu Yuanhou, who ranked last, was ranked seventh in both of the two individual tasks that tested his comprehension potential because of his cultivation of the Hunyuan bloodline! He was ranked zero in the Blood Spirit Gold Pearl task, still at the bottom.
In the ancient country of Yanfeng, it is generally forbidden for people in the Chaos Realm to cultivate the Chaotic Origin Bloodline. Even in the first level of the Divine King Realm, there are very few people who cultivate the Chaotic Origin Bloodline. One must pass many tests before being qualified to practice, and the threshold is extremely high.
Because the threshold is extremely high and the practice is very cautious, in the ancient country of Yanfeng, no one who practices the Hunyuan bloodline has lost control.
This is also the difference between the two ancient countries.
The ancient country of Yanfeng has always been wary of the Hunyuan bloodline and has practiced very cautiously. For example, the contemporary emperor "Emperor's Husband" became an emperor by relying on the Hunyuan bloodline, and he did not lose control, but in the end he still chose to reincarnate and abandon this path, without any external force, and became an emperor again through the formation path.
From the attitude of the top leaders, we can see their vigilance against the Hunyuan bloodline.
The Thunder Ancient Country fully embraces the Chaos Source Bloodline, and those in the Chaos Realm can begin to practice, and the God Kings can practice more deeply! The Mountain Guest joined the Thunder Ancient Country because the threshold for this aspect of the Thunder Ancient Country is very low.
"Brother Luo He, I'm going back first." Di Chuyu stood up, "I will go to Di Chu Palace to collect resources soon."
"Go ahead." Luo Feng said with a smile. Di Chuyu left immediately.
******
In a vast world.
A figure was sitting cross-legged on the ground. There were vast numbers of different formations operating in the whole world, and many of them were in harmony with each other.
"Based on the "Ten Thousand Formations Diagram" and the "Eight Volumes of the Remaining Formations of the Hunyuan Space", do you want to go further?" The figure pondered, and suddenly a thought came from afar through cause and effect.
"Emperor!" A domineering and wanton voice came from the first emperor of the ancient country of Yanfeng, 'Emperor Yan'.
"Brother Di Yan, is there something wrong?" asked Di Fu.
"Guarding the border city 'Xiangjie City' is the mission of my Di Yan lineage. At the beginning, I sent Yan Su to guard Xiangjie City, and Yan Su has been guarding it until now without any mistakes." Di Yan's voice came, "But not long ago, Na Luohe directly attacked the border city and killed all the clones of the guard Yan Su in the city! It even caused a riot among the creatures of the Hunyuan bloodline."
"Brother Di Yan, this was originally the mission of your Di Yan lineage." Di Fu said with a smile, "I thought you had discussed it with Di Chu."
"Before, the entire royal family was busy with the heavenly mission. Now that the dust has settled, I am dealing with this matter." Di Yan said, "I think the attack on the border city Xiangjie City must be severely punished. After all, it suppresses the entrance to the world. That world... was opened up by the ancestor himself. It is the ancestor's hard work."
"I know. He deserves severe punishment." said the Emperor.
"Luo He has many clones. Ordinary punishments are not worth mentioning to him and will not have any effect on punishing him." Di Yan said, "I think it would be more appropriate to let him guard the 'Lava Demon'."
The Emperor frowned.
The Lava Demon is an extremely powerful demon among the God-King-level Hunyuan bloodline creatures cultivated by the Ancestor of Yanfeng. His strength is comparable to that of the emperors, so he is imprisoned in solitary confinement.
This old lava demon is more powerful than the emperors in terms of the Hunyuan bloodline alone, and is extremely polluting.
“With Luo He’s strength in guarding the lava demon, it’s easy for him to be contaminated.” Di Fu said.
"The place where we are imprisoned is still very safe." Di Yan said.
"Brother Di Yan, I won't hide it from you! Half a century ago... Di Chu told me about this." Di Fu said, "He said that his disciple Luo He made a mistake, and he admits it! His punishment must be in accordance with the laws of the ancient country of Yanfeng! If it exceeds the scope of the law, he will resist the punishment! He can even report the matter to the ancestor!"
"Resist punishment?" Di Yan was a little surprised.
Emperors have the right to resist punishment.
If some decisions made by the current emperor are too extreme, other emperors can choose to resist the punishment! They can even report it to the ancestor!
"For such a small matter, you want to resist the punishment and report to the ancestor? This Emperor Chu has always been such a reckless person." Emperor Yan was quite angry.
Emperor Chu, however, did not cultivate the Chaotic Origin Bloodline. He had been a tyrannical and overbearing person since he was young. He was extremely protective of his shortcomings and did not care about the overall situation! He was always ready to break the sky! However, because of this, Emperor Chu cultivated the Great Dao of Destruction Origin quite smoothly.
"What Di Chu said makes sense. No matter what, we must abide by the law." Di Fu said, "Otherwise, if we really resist the punishment and report it to the First Ancestor, we will all be in trouble."
"Then tell me, how should we punish him?" Di Yan was helpless.
What can he do when he encounters someone who flips the table over when he disagrees with someone, and even resists punishment?
"Since Xiangjie City does not have a general to guard it now, we will punish Luo He to guard it." Emperor Fu said, "We will let him guard it for a thousand years, but he will not have any merit."
Guarding the border is a tough job, but the rewards for this mission are usually very high.
As a punishment, the merits were naturally erased.
"About ten thousand epochs." Di Yan said.
"Okay, then it will be ten thousand epochs." The Emperor's husband also responded.
……
The capital of Chu, the Emperor Chu Palace.
Luo Feng came here to see his master.
"Your sentence has come down. You will guard Xiangjie City for 10,000 epochs." Emperor Chu looked at Luo Feng. "Although the sentence is a bit heavy, it is still within the scope of the law and is considered a normal punishment."
Luo Feng nodded: "Thank you, Master."
As long as it is within the normal penalty range, Luo Feng is not worried.
"No need to thank me." Di Chu said, "If you were not my disciple, Di Yan would not target you, so this matter is my responsibility. If you can't even protect your disciples, isn't that a joke?"
"This is the array talisman of the world entrance formation of 'Xiangjie'." Di Chu waved his hand, and a golden array talisman flew towards Luo Feng.
Luo Feng took the golden array talisman and received two pieces of information from it. They were the method of controlling the array talisman and the method of controlling the array of the entire Xiangjie City.
There is a clear method, and Luo Feng can easily master it at his level.
"With your strength, combined with the formation, it will be easy for you to guard Xiangjie City." Emperor Chu said, "The only problem is that you have to guard it for 10,000 epochs. This is the penalty imposed by the Emperor himself. Even if you become a Divine King, I'm afraid you won't be able to shorten the period."
"I have many disciples, so I don't care." Luo Feng said.
Di Chu nodded with satisfaction: "Go ahead."
Luo Feng immediately left respectfully.
……
Luo Feng was punished to guard Xiangjie City for ten thousand epochs. This news spread quickly among the high-level officials of the ancient Yanfeng country, and many of the first-class dukes of the royal family soon learned the news.
"Brother Luo He." Di Chuyu felt quite guilty. He went to visit immediately after receiving the heavenly mission resources from Di Chu Palace.
"It's all because of my Blood Spirit Golden Pearl mission that Brother Luo He and Yan Su became enemies, and now he has been punished to guard Xiangjie City for ten thousand epochs." Di Chuyu looked at Luo Feng. For this Blood Spirit Golden Pearl mission, Brother Luo He didn't receive any benefits from him, but was severely punished instead. Di Chuyu was naturally very apologetic.
Luo Feng shook his head: "Don't worry about it! I couldn't stand the evil spirit, so I took the initiative to kill Yan Su in Xiangjie City, killed several of Yan Su's clones, and took away his God King weapon. That's how I got rid of my evil spirit."
"No matter what, all these things happened because of me." Di Chuyu flipped his hand and took out a golden bottle, "This is a bottle of 'Mind Cleansing Liquid' that I got when I received the resources for the Heaven-level mission. It is helpful for comprehending the Great Dao and strengthening the mind's will."
This bottle of 'Purifying Spirit Liquid' is the most precious resource he has obtained, and its value is equivalent to nearly half of the resources he has harvested this time.
Di Chuyu felt that without Luo Feng's help, he might not even be able to get the third place. It was only right for him to give his most precious resources to his good friend.
"It is beneficial to the Great Dao and the will of the mind?" Luo Feng did not refuse and accepted it directly, "Thank you."
"I have to thank Brother Luo He." Di Chuyu said with a smile, "For this Heaven-level mission, the first-ranked person has the most resources. I'm second-ranked, and I have half as many resources as Chu Yinghou! And the third-ranked person only has 30% of mine. The next four have even less."
This is the case with the royal family of the ancient country of Yanfeng. The more outstanding they are, the more emphasis they will receive in cultivation.
"I'll go back first. Since I got second place this time, I'm also very busy." Di Chuyu said.
Luo Feng nodded, watched him leave, and then looked at the bottle of "Purifying Spirit Liquid" in his hand. This was a treasure that was not recorded in the Heritage Hall, and it should be only for the high-ranking members of the royal family. In fact, even Di Chuyu only got this bottle after completing a heaven-level mission.
"Brother Chu Yu, there is still a long time to come." Luo Feng whispered softly.
“Guarding Xiangjie City for ten thousand epochs? Even if you become a God King, the punishment period will not be shortened?” Luo Feng didn’t care at all. He accepted the punishment after making a mistake.

Tomato will take a day off tomorrow and think about the detailed plot of the fourth episode.
