    Luo Feng was somewhat surprised. The Marquis of Jiu Jiang had always been reluctant before; could it be that the methods Luo Feng had disyed in the confrontation with the Heartshadow Sect had finally moved him? Such arge amount of Cosmic Sand was still very important to him.


    "If Marquis is willing to offer one hundred million Cosmic Sand, Luo He is naturally willing to join Marquis''s army," Luo Feng said.


    "Hahaha, good," the Marquis of Jiu Jiang nodded in satisfaction, "This one hundred million Cosmic Sand, do you want it transferred to your ount at me Wind Pavilion, or handed to you in person?"


    "Handing it to me is fine," Luo Feng replied.


    "Alright, I will personally deliver it to you within three days," the Marquis of Jiu Jiang said and, raising his ss to look at Morosa, proimed, "Let''s drink together!"


    Luo Feng and Morosa both raised their sses and drank together.


    "As for this employment, it will be considered over once Heartshadow Sectpletely gives up, right?" Luo Feng followed up with another question, knowing that Marquis Liu Yin''s territory bordered the Marquis of Jiu Jiang''s and, even if they failed this time, there might second and third provocations in the future.


    "The employment will end once Heartshadow Sectpletely gives up. The employment period will not exceed ten eras," the Marquis of Jiu Jiang promised.


    Luo Feng understood and raised his ss, "To the Marquis."


    The Marquis of Jiu Jiang was also in high spirits.


    Though he had given up some wealth, it indeed greatly strengthened the power of his forces.


    After the banquet had dispersed, the Marquis of Jiu Jiang ordered a servant, "Take Luo He and his servant to their residence."


    "Yes," the servantplied.


    Luo Feng and Morosa stood up and, led by the servant, proceeded to their temporary residence in the small town.


    In the pavilion, only the Marquis of Jiu Jiang was left sitting alone.


    "Father," a figure in blue clothing emerged from one side, a young man who bore a strong resemnce to the Marquis of Jiu Jiang. He couldn''t help but speak up, "Hiring this Luo He at the cost of one hundred million Cosmic Sand seems too much. We spent only sixty million Cosmic Sand to hire General Yue."


    The Marquis of Jiu Jiang nced at his son and shook his head, "The strength Luo He had previously disyed indeed wasn''t worth it. But in this battle, the Primal Chaos Pinnacle Will he revealed is extremely useful on the battlefield."


    "With him present, those more than a hundred superrge mechanical treasures were mostly rendered useless, hardly daring to rampage around. After all, if they encountered Luo He, even if those superrge mechanical treasures formed an array, it would be tantamount to suicide," the Marquis of Jiu Jiang exined.


    Upon hearing this, the young man nodded in realization, "That makes sense. The previous Six Shadows Killing Formation consisted of six superrge mechanical treasures working together; it had the strength for a head-on fight sufficient to entangle Luo He.


    But under the assault of the Spiritual Will, at that time, five of the superrge mechanical treasures lost their ability to resist and were easily swept away by Luo He."


    "Spiritual Will, in the face of group tactics, has a miraculous effect," the Marquis of Jiu Jiang remarked, "An eternal true god possesses Primal Chaos Pinnacle Will. It''s truly incredible! Your father, despite cultivating for endless ages, has only reached Primal Chaos Pinnacle Will."


    The young man nodded, "With Luo He present, those superrge mechanical treasures can only hide within the Killing Formation, significantly reducing the threat."


    "Let''s not forget, he also has a servant. If the master is in danger, how could the servant stand by and do nothing?" the Marquis of Jiu Jiang said with a smile, "Hiring one, but getting another as a bonus."


    The young man nodded in agreement.


    Seeing it this way, one hundred million Cosmic Sand was indeed well spent.


    "Father, when do we make our move?" the young man asked.


    "Our strength is still insufficient for now, let''s wait a little longer," the Marquis of Jiu Jiang said, his Divine Power Incarnation having gone to the Royal Capital to ask for assistance early on.


    Originally, the power difference between Liu Yin Primal Chaos State and Jiu Jiang Primal Chaos Prefecture wasn''t too great.


    But with Heartshadow Sect entering the war, being a Godly King level sect, it greatly upset the bnce. The Marquis of Jiu Jiang had to find a way to gather reinforcements, solely relying on Luo He and his servant would not be enough.


    ...


    The cave mansion where Luo Feng and Morosa were temporarily staying spanned over an area of more than a hundred thousand kilometers and was considered quite exquisite.


    In the meditation chamber of the cave mansion, Luo Feng sat cross-legged.


    Inside the Star Tower within his body.


    A Divine Power Incarnation of Luo Feng descended.


    "Lord Xie," greeted the many Cultivators gathered there, who had been rescued by Luo Feng.


    "Everyone," Luo Feng looked at them, "Brother Shang and I have a deep friendship. This time, Uncle Qiu asked for my help, and I only had enough time to rescue Cultivators from nine Artificing Shops. I couldn''t do anything for the rest of the disciples of the Heavenly me Sect."


    The disciples of Heavenly me Sect were numerous and scattered everywhere, so only the ninergest Artificing Shops could be saved.


    "Just saving nine Artificing Shops is something for which all disciples of my Heavenly me Sect are immensely grateful," the Silverlight creature, Uncle Qiu, said excitedly, feeling that Lord Luo He had made a great sacrifice for them.


    "And there are also many guests from the Artificing Shops," Luo Feng addressed them, "During the previous battles, to prevent any harm to you, I had to take you out of Huyang City. If you wish to return to Huyang City, I will send you back once this war is over."


    "We are not in a hurry."


    "We are willing to follow the God," they responded.


    "God has shown great kindness to us," they added.


    These guests, consisting of True Gods of Void Space and even more so, numerous True Gods, already found survival in Huyang City challenging. Being associated with Lord Luo He was considered a stroke of good fortune.


    After soothing these Cultivators, Luo Feng met with Dream Flower Tower Master, Araya, and the Moyu Family.


    "Dream Flower is grateful for God''s life-saving grace," the Master of Dream Flower Tower expressed her thanks.


    "It wasn''t really life-saving," Luo Feng said with a smile, "Heartshadow Sect probably wouldn''t have killed you."


    The Dream Flower Tower Master shook her head, "If not for the God''s help, all treasures this time would have been plundered. Even I, only skilled in music and Illusion Techniques, would probably have been caught by the higher-ups of the Heartshadow Sect, to be used as a musician, or even worse, as a ything."


    If she had been willing to be a musician or ything, she would not havee to establish the Dream Flower Tower in Huyang City. Many powerful families and sects would wee an Eternal True God level musician like her.


    ```


    "Then you must cultivate diligently. Only by relying on yourself can you endure in the long run," Luo Feng said.


    "Cultivate? How easily said than done?" The Dream Flower Tower Master shook her head, while Araya by her side listened with even moreplex feelings. As a true god of void space from the Thousand Leaves Vine n, she was still far behind in music and Illusion Techniquespared to the Tower Master.


    "As long as you keep umting, there will eventually be a harvest. Araya, you must also work hard," Luo Feng said with a smile, ncing at Araya.


    "Okay," Araya nodded.


    Luo Feng looked towards the Moyu Family to his side, Moyu Qingyan, the family of Moyu LieFeng, and the pregnant Mo Youshang.


    "Lord Xie has saved our Moyu Family," Moyu LieFeng said gratefully.


    Luo Feng said with emotion, "Moyu Liuxing was very smart; it''s a pity that he encountered this catastrophe."


    Mo Youshang was the most saddened at the moment.


    Like a family member, her master ''Shang Tianyan''s'' death was a huge blow to her. Now that her husband, Moyu Liuxing, had also died, she was fortunate to still have the child in her belly. This was the only thing she cared about in the world now.


    "Thank you, Lord Xie, for avenging Liuxing," Mo Youshang said with gratitude.


    ...


    Another space within the Star Tower.


    Throughout the long years of Luo Feng''s cultivation journey, he had seen much joy and sorrow, unions, and partings. Even he found himself powerless many times.


    "Swoosh." "Buzz." "Whoosh."


    One could see distant Primal Chaos Layer Creatures flying cheerfully. These were fifteen creatures that Luo Feng had captured alive in the Primal Chaos Layer during thest five eras, each harboringplete Primal Chaosws within.


    Fifteen Primal Chaos Layer Creatures,prising six species.


    For instance, the Silverlight Creatures, Luo Feng had caught three of them, each formed from 108, 397, and 1091 Silver Droplets, respectively.


    The other species each had their own characteristics.


    By studying these creatures, Luo Feng''s understanding of the Primal Chaosws deepened as well.


    "Up till now, I''ve deduced up to sixteen Primal Chaos Realm techniques. And I canbine these Primal Chaos Realm techniques," Luo Feng thought to himself. Just like some precious Mechanical Treasures, which may contain several Primal Chaos Realm techniques that can bebined with each other, significantly enhancing the strength they can unleash.


    "Despite such umtion, I still have not deduced the Law of Primal Chaos," Luo Feng felt rather tormented.


    It was as if the Law of Primal Chaos was right before him, clearly visible.


    But when he tried to touch it, it was like grasping at air. No matter what, he couldn''tprehend it fully, always just a bit short.


    "Just a bit short."


    "When I deduced ten Primal Chaos Realm techniques, I felt like I was just a bit short of mastering the Law of Primal Chaos. Now after figuring out sixteen techniques, I''m still just a bit short," Luo Feng mused.


    Luo Feng was exceptionally talented, possessing a vast godly body that far surpassed historical figures, which gave him a powerful soul! Coupled with Godly King Level will, his efficiency inprehension was naturally extremely high.


    Yet even so,prehending the Law of Primal Chaos felt arduous.


    Always feeling just a bit short.


    "As long as you keep umting, there will eventually be a harvest," Luo Feng sat cross-legged and began to concentrate onprehension.


    ******


    Time passed day by day.


    Huyang City gradually returned to calm, except the true gods of void space and the eternal true gods within were almostpletely looted. The Heartshadow Sect had indeed made a killing.


    At the highest peak within the Primal Chaos Armor Sector,


    the Master of the Heartshadow Sect and the Eighteen Elders gathered, all looking in the direction of the city owner''s mansion.


    "Sect Leader, shall we not pay a price in casualties to take down this city owner''s mansion?" the One-eyed Elder proposed.


    "What''s the rush?"


    The Master of the Heartshadow Sect looked towards the distant city owner''s mansion, "We havepletely sealed off the city owner''s mansion now, they can''te out, and they pose no threat to us."


    "The city owner''s mansion is, after all, the core of Huyang City. This superrge mechanical city has been built over generations by controllers, making it a formidable superrge Mechanical Secret Treasure," the One-eyed Eldermented, "Once this superrge mechanical city falls into the hands of an Array Master, it can y a powerful role."


    "Marquis Jiu Jiang will probably send an Array Master to enter the city owner''s mansion," the Master of the Heartshadow Sect observed, "All we need is to wait patiently, seize one, and we kill one."


    By retaining the city owner''s mansion, they could intercept all reinforcements.


    "We have indeed set up a Great Formation in advance,pletely trapping the city owner''s mansion. Any supporting Array Master whoes, we can intercept and kill. But… I think we should conquer the city owner''s mansion beforehand. That way, Marquis Jiu Jiang won''t be able to control Huyang City," the One-eyed Elder said.


    Elder Hearteye spoke up, "I agree with the Sect Leader. The key is to kill the Array Masters! We''ve taken Huyang City this time, next we might have to attack Xuyin City. In the future, we might even be forced to assault Jiu Jiang City!"


    "There are threerge cities, and top-notch Array Masters aren''t easy toe by. Marquis Jiu Jiang inviting outsiders might be lucky to get one. Killing an Array Master is far more important than taking the city owner''s mansion," Elder Hearteye reasoned.


    "Without an Array Master, the threerge cities won''t pose much of a threat," said the Master of the Heartshadow Sect.


    Large cities were perfected over generations, and even before the Yu Kingdom, Divine Kingdoms had reinforced them.


    As a result, eachrge city had extremelyplex formations.


    The deeper the understanding of formations, the greater the might that could be unleashed from therge city. Potentially in terms of potential, it surpasses the Heartshadow Sect''s ''Great Destruction Ultimate Formation''.
