By the side of the railings of the pagoda, Luo Feng turned to look down. There, he saw, right in the middle of his courtyard, Double-Face Ancestor God.

“Ancestor God.” With a flash, Luo Feng reached the side of the other party.

Double-Face Ancestor God was fair-skinned and benevolent-looking. As he looked at Luo Feng, Luo Feng felt as though he were basking in a spring breeze, and he started to thank Ancestor God repeatedly, “Thank you for coming to my rescue, Ancestor God.”

Five-Color Aurora Lake enveloped the core ground of the entire Ancestral God School. When it suddenly disappeared, many islands, Eight Beast God Palace, Guarding Beast God Palace, 72 General Continent, and many others were quick to notice its absence. When a predominating treasure like Five-Color Aurora Lake went missing, wouldn’t it consider that a major event?

Even though everything returned back to normal very quickly, it still sparked an endless debate. The Ancestral God School had many peripheral members who normally lived on other islands. They were all discussing this proactively. At the same time, they were secretly sending news back to the powers behind them!

“Five-Color Aurora Lake is a supreme true treasure. Barring a critical moment, it would be impossible to get it to unleash its full potential. Normally, just a little aurora is enough to annihilate enemies.”

“For it to instantly disappear, Five-Color Aurora Lake must be putting in its all and doing everything it can.”

“Who could cause this?”

“Who provoked Five-Color Aurora Lake into retaliation at full might?”

Though they were peripheral members, the possibilities included Jiu Feng Knight, who might be a candidate for the post of Heavenly General. But such individuals would definitely pledge their loyalty to their human race! Who would have provoked Five-Color Aurora Lake?

With Ancestral God School as the core grounds, the news was secretly and rapidly disseminated.

“The predominating treasure of Ancestral God School, Five-Color Aurora Lake, was activated once, then it disappeared within an instant, but was recovered to original state within a fleeting moment.”

“Something major must have happened.”

“Pushed to such extremes, could it be a universe supreme being has barged its way into the core grounds of Ancestral God School?”

The other eight of the top nine powers of the universe were no fools. Each came to a conclusion quickly, especially the top three powers—the bug soldiers, the demons, and the automaton race—who were waiting quietly and expectantly. Upon enlisting the help of Virtual-Real Devil Master, Father God of the automaton race had notified the demons and bug soldiers that he had invited a universe supreme being to take up the matter.

“It must be the killing of Luo Feng that incurred the wrath of the Ancestral God School.”

“Haha! So long as Luo Feng is eliminated, with that hard stone’s ability, it would be able to take its leave easily.”

News spread to the outside world rapidly, but Luo Feng was oblivious. He did not have an inkling of what was going on because Redbud Island was within the universe that was under the control of Double-Face Ancestor God, so the candidates on Redbud Island were unaware of the sudden, momentary disappearance and reappearance of the Five-Color Aurora Lake.

“What!” Luo Feng could not suppress his shout of surprise. “Ancestor God, you—you have been protecting me…?”

“Hahaha…” Double-Face Ancestor God smiled and said, “I was the undying demon staying next to you, I transformed into that appearance so no one on Redbud Island would discover my true identity.”

Images of an undying demon in the form of a two-headed white wolf immediately sprang up in Luo Feng’s mind. That was him?

“If I were not staying next to you and you were to meet with sudden danger, how would I be able to come to your rescue in time? I couldn’t have done it from my Ancestor God Palace.” Double-Face Ancestor God smiled. “Virtual-Real Devil Master has extremely strong powers. He could appear on Redbud Island in an instant. If I had been at Ancestor God Palace, by the time I realized he was here, even if I did my best to rush here… I’m afraid I still would have been too late to save you from annihilation—or to save you from being controlled by another soul.”

“Being controlled by a soul?” Luo Feng’s brow twitched.

Based on what he knew, a universe supreme being was merely one notch stronger than the strongest universe master. The difference was not all that far apart. Luo Feng’s willpower and consciousness were at the universe master level. Furthermore, he had Force Armor to reduce attacks on his soul, and he had one of the components of his supreme true treasure Star Tower, “Tower Pearl,” to guard his soul. With those, he assumed he would not be that weak.

“Don’t believe me?” Double-Face Ancestor God said. He looked at Luo Feng and shook his head laughingly. “He is called Virtual-Real Devil Master. The ‘virtual-real’ part of his name comes from the fact that he possesses the skill of creating illusions which are identical to reality.”

“Illusions? Identical to reality?” Luo Feng was secretly in shock.

“The moment you fall into an illusion he created, you will still feel the universe laws in motion, you can still cultivate… and in the process of cultivation, you can still master the skill of law comprehension. Everything is perfectly real.” Double-Face Ancestor God smiled at Luo Feng, “Of course, once you are able to break free from the illusion, you will realize that you have not undergone any change, only your willpower and memory will have some changes. Of course, the laws that you have cultivated within the illusion must be one of those that he personally knew of. If he didn’t know the laws, he wouldn’t have enabled you to cultivate.”

Luo Feng was stunned.

Cultivating laws within an illusion? This bore a resemblance to the virtual universe.

Actually, the virtual universe allowed countless life forms to enter at any one point in time, and within the virtual universe, any kind of law could be cultivated; there was almost no difference from the real world. A true super great being could clearly differentiate the virtual world from the real world without confusion. Only the ordinary humans who were weaker, and who were immersed in virtual games on a long-term basis would confuse the real and virtual worlds as time passed. However, the moment one’s willpower got stronger, the confusion would stop.

There was a fundamental difference between the virtual universe and an illusion. The virtual universe was open and aboveboard, like another universe—the universe of consciousness.

“Once you fall into his illusion, you may feel as though a short instant in the actual, real world was equivalent to tens of thousands of years, or even more, in the illusionary world,” Double-Face Ancestor God explained.

Luo Feng was appalled and commented, “Could this time be used for cultivation? This would be a very smart way of saving time.”

“No.” Double-Face Ancestor God walked along the stoned pavement encircling the pond and said, “Sustaining an illusion consumes a large amount of godly power. Besides, he has to give his best; getting an ordinary human to fall into an illusion and sustaining it for a long time is easy. But, getting a universe master to fall into an illusion and make him feel as though 10,000 years have passed within the blink of an eye… The amount of godly power needed is truly unbelievable. How can it be used for cultivation? Moreover, the path of your choice may not be familiar to Virtual-Real Devil Master. His strongest ability is illusion. I have lived by your side for 62 years. Having observed you for so long, I can also judge that your willpower and consciousness must have already reached the level of a universe master; your godly body is probably comparable to the special life forms that were one of a kind.”

Luo Feng was in great shock. How frightening! He had not engaged in any battle and was only observing, completely in the dark. After a long period of watching Luo Feng, Double-Face Ancestor God had been able to make a judgment about his level of power. Even Primal Chaos City Leader Teacher could only make a judgment if Luo Feng was in the primal universe.

“For a soul to kill you would be as difficult as trying to kill a universe master,” said Double-Face Ancestor God. “But Virtual-Real Devil Master can achieve that. His ability to create illusions is horrifying. Given the willpower and consciousness of a universe master, at the very least, he would have to possess a top-tier soul type true treasure in order to not be fearful of Virtual-Real Devil Master. This is the strength of his ability under a certain amount of restraint upon being suppressed by the universe origins.”

“A top-tier soul type true treasure?” Luo Feng held his breath.

A top-tier soul type true treasure was comparable to the value of a pinnacle true treasure. Among all the universe masters, a great majority did not own one.

“You have to know that among the universe supreme beings, he has the most frightening skills when it comes to illusions.” Double-Face Ancestor God looked at Luo Feng. “In the case of an ordinary soul type true treasure, his blurry godly power can tear it apart any moment; as for a senior soul type true treasure, they are also defenseless against him. These victorious moments are proven proved by his credentials.”

Luo Feng nodded and made sure he remembered all this information well. This information was considered confidential. For Double-Face Ancestor God to tell him all this was indeed an act of great kindness. Actually, for Double-Face Ancestor God to be willing to stay in solitude beside him for 62 years meant that, during the times when he gained fame—leading to him being hunted down by bug soldiers, demons, and the automaton race—Double-Face Ancestor God had already been living a secluded life beside him.

“Force Armor can only weaken the force by one level; with Tower Pearl alone, is it not enough?”

Seems to me I must bring Star Tower with me at all times, Luo Feng told himself.

The moment Tower Pearl returned to Star Tower, the latter would shrink and park itself within Luo Feng’s godly body. Then, it would naturally be guarding his soul!

Star Tower consisted of various functional components like attacking, soul type, flying palace type, sealing type, and many more. He might only have the soul type component, but with the entire Star Tower within his body, according to Luo Feng’s assessment, it should be comparable to a pinnacle soul type true treasure. Or, at the very least, Luo Feng felt it would make a difference.

Just as what Sitting Mountain Guest said, with Star Tower, he would fear no one! The best form of defense would be to hide within Star Tower!

Regardless of material or soul attack, Star Tower would be able to ward off everything! If he hid within it, even a universe supreme master would not be able to do anything to him! But of course, doing so would only reveal the fact that he owned Star Tower, which would arouse the greed of the group of universe pinnacle great beings. There was no way one could be on guard against theft day in and day out. Once a universe supreme being started eyeing him, there was no way he could possibly remain within Star Tower all the time. Any moment of carelessness would spell danger.

Next time around, I have to put Star Tower within my godly body, to guard and protect my soul. I have underestimated the universe supreme beings. It was said that a universe supreme being was only slightly stronger than the most powerful universe master—just a hit stronger. But I did not expect them to be so powerful. Seems like… I have also underestimated the powers of universe masters.

Luo Feng had always thought that after he became a universe knight, he would be able to compete head-to-head with a universe master.

A sudden realization dawned on Luo Feng. Among universe masters, there were stronger ones and weaker ones, too! He could probably stand against the weaker ones. However, for the strong ones like Primal Chaos City Leader—who was only a small fraction less powerful than Virtual-Real Devil Master, judging from Virtual-real Devil Master’s showcase of skills—the strongest of all top-tier universe masters was certainly much stronger than he was.

The supreme true treasure Star Tower guards the soul, thought Luo Feng. Force Armor protects the body. With a godly body more than 55,000 miles tall, even a universe supreme being should not be able to harm me. Hmm. I have to hurriedly get Star Tower back.

Luo Feng had gotten too complacent. The showcase of power by a universe supreme being this time around had sobered him up.

Double-Face Ancestor God turned to look at Luo Feng. “Word of you killing Flourishing Light Horde Leader and Para-chopper Knight has spread, especially when you turned up at Redbud Island. I proceeded to discuss your situation with two other ancestor gods. The bug soldiers, the automaton race, and the demons would stay away for the moment, but as time passed, we knew they would probably close in on you. Therefore, the second day after you arrived at Redbud Island, I started living in the palace next to your mansion.”

“Thank you Ancestor God.” Luo Feng expressed his gratitude.

This kind sentiment… He had to put it to heart! Kindness begot kindness!

“It has been a long time since a promising being such as yourself has turned up at the Ancestral God School,” said Double-Face Ancestor God. “Your potential is much stronger than Purple Knight.” He smiled at Luo Feng, then added, “We at the Ancestral God School hope that you will grow and mature to a stage where you are comparable to your teacher, Primal Chaos City Leader. At that time, the Ancestral God School will bestow you with the title of Guarding Godly Master.”
