Swallowed Star Volume 5 - Chapter 58: HUGE COMMOTION

VOLUME 5 CHAPTER 58: HUGE COMMOTION
Representative Farr froze…..
Luo Feng was surprised too. Keep in mind that this entire misty island was full of mist and visibility was low here. And for things like spirits of nature, there are times where it would be hard to recognize one even if it was right in front of you. Whoever finds more gets to keep more? Why would this investigator Liu accept such conditions?
“It’s up to you” Investigator Liu looked towards the golden masked man.
“Ok” the golden masked man slightly nodded.
Whoosh!
He flew into the distance and hovered above the misty island. Afterwards, the mysterious golden masked man extended both of his hands and closed his eyes. A formless, special power spread towards every direction with him at the center, as if a radar was emitting radio waves.
This process lasted about five to six seconds.
Whoosh! Like a bolt of lightning, the mysterious golden masked man directly flew into the misty island.
…..
This scene shocked Luo Feng and representative Farr, who were still in midair. Usually, searching for spirits of nature with all this mist was an extremely difficult task. If the spirits of nature don’t attack, then they would be hard to recognize even if they’re right in front of you! So there isn’t much of an advantage for existences surpassing the wargod level in searching for spirits of nature.
But why……
Does investigator Liu seem so confident in letting this mysterious golden masked man take action?
“Representative Farr, just keep me company here. It’ll be easier for you and it’ll be easier for me” investigator Liu glanced at him. Representative Farr just sneered as he continued to hover in midair. Representative Farr didn’t have any special methods to help him search for spirits of nature, so it would be better for him to just stay here and keep investigator Liu with him.
Suddenly——
Four shadows raced below and one of them even soared into the air.
Luo Feng observed carefully and saw that the one who flew up was indeed Phantom Demon Catalan. A black light extended below Catalan’s feet and seemed to take the shape of a pedal. Phantom Demon Catalan’s feet stepped on those black pedals as he hovered in midair.
“Representative Farr, representative Farr” Catalan said out of anger and resignation, “We were digging up an unknown spirit of nature, but it was stolen right at the most important moment. The opponent was too fast and powerful. He was probably an existence surpassing the wargod level, so the four of us couldn’t fight back at all”
Representative Farr’s face changed as he heard this.
“As for the spirits of nature that Li Yao discovered earlier, they were already taken by the time we arrived” yelled Catalan again.
“HAHA……” investigator Liu laughed loudly as he heard this.
Representative Farr’s face turned green as he heard this.
And Luo Feng was absolutely flabbergasted. Damn, that mysterious golden masked man has an ability where he can easily find spirits of nature in all this mist? Usually, spirits of nature are extremely hard to identify if they don’t attack.
“Investigator Liu, I wonder which of the three royal guards he is? Ice Mountain?” representative Farr’s face was green, “Who would’ve thought that the head of the Dojo’s three royal guards have such special abilities”
“You’re quite smart. He is indeed Ice Mountain”
Investigator Liu slightly smiled, “However, is this worth getting surprised over? Everyone has different abilities after breaking through the wargod barrier and becoming an existence surpassing the wargod level. Your ability is just fire. And Ice Mountain of the three royal guards has an ability you would never even dream of”
There are five big investigators under ‘Hong’ of the Dojo of Limits.
But, other than the five investigators, few people know….. that Hong has three royal guards. These three royal guards have been following Hong with all their body and heart since a long time ago! They are absolutely loyal. Hong also guides these three royal guards and assists them as much as possible….. all three royal guards are existences surpassing the wargod level!
People say that the five big investigators are horrifying…..
But more fighters are afraid of these three royal guards! Other than Hong, nobody knows who they are. People only know their nicknames, which are: “Beast” “Ice Mountain” “Allure”.
“Royal guards?” Luo Feng was stunned, “Not investigators?”
“Young man” investigator Liu smiled as he glanced at Luo Feng, “Hong is not as simple as you think he is. The three royal guards below him are all existences surpassing the wargod level. And each of the royal guards, under Hong’s teachings, have extraordinary strength. Otherwise…… why would the world’s powerful countries and organizations all fear Hong so much?”
Luo Feng froze.
One person, single handedly raised three existences surpassing the wargod level.
Holy!
“RUMBLE~~”
“HU!”
It was all black below. Sonic boom after sonic boom carried from the mist covered island below. The sounds of attacks landing on a plant. Clearly, these sounds were caused by that royal guard.
In midair.
A shield created out of a breeze covered Luo Feng and investigator Liu.
“Investigator?” Luo Feng looked at investigator Liu with shock.
“Just a small trick so representative Farr won’t be able to hear us” smiled investigator Liu, “Let me introduce myself. I’m Liu He. The head’s rating of you is quite high, saying that you’re one of the top spirit reader geniuses on earth. After consuming a thousand year willow heart….. what level did your spiritual force reach?”
Luo Feng hesitated.
“Peak of the advanced level wargod level” said Luo Feng.
Investigator Liu took in a breath as he looked at Luo Feng with disbelief on his face. He couldn’t help but to say: “How old are you?”
“19 years old!” answered Luo Feng.
“19 years old, peak of the advanced level wargod level spirit reader?” investigator Liu couldn’t help but to shake his head as he started laughing, “I’ve always heard how powerful the geniuses from the legends are. During the Grand Nirvana period, the head and chairman Thunder God only took a few years to become existences surpassing the wargod level. I’ve also seen a few that only took a short 2 to 3 years to become wargods at the peak of the advanced level wargod level”
“But…… it’s my first time seeing a 19 year old peak of the advanced level wargod level spirit reader” investigator Liu’s gaze towards Luo Feng softened quite a bit.
Why is the Dojo of Limits powerful? Unity!
Raise up geniuses to strengthen the Dojo and not worry about the young ones surpassing the old ones. On Luo Feng’s path of a fighter…… he’s been taught and helped by instructor Jiang Nian, chief instructor Wu Tong, envoy Yang Hui, teacher Jiang Fang, and others. They tried their best to guide and advise Luo Feng, which was why he was able to grow so successfully!
His talent is important, but so is his environment.
“Very good” investigator Liu smiled as he nodded, “With your strength, you can already be nicknamed ‘invincible wargod’. A spirit reader at the peak of the advanced level wargod level, hehe, this is quite a challenge. They seem to fly quickly and are quite peculiar underground, making it hard for people to chase after them”
Luo Feng couldn’t help but recall the scene that previously unfolded.
Representative Farr, couldn’t catch him in midair!
“But don’t get too cocky. You’re invincible within wargods, but once you encounter an existence surpassing the wargod level….. it won’t be so easy! Every existence surpassing the wargod level has a special ability” investigator Liu lightly smiled, “And everyone has different strengths. For example, I fly much faster than representative Farr”
Luo Feng nodded. That mysterious golden masked man is one of Hong’s three royal guards, ‘Ice Mountain’. He’s actually able to easily find large amounts of spirits of nature.
Investigator Liu carefully reminded Luo Feng that he can’t let his guard down. There are tons of existences surpassing the wargod level that can get rid of Luo Feng.
“Show me the ten thousand year willow heart” said investigator Liu.
“Investigator” Luo Feng took out the ten thousand year willow heart.
Investigator Liu took it and looked at it. The flowing green essence with hints of gold inside the oval shaped crystal caused investigator Liu to squint. He nodded, “This ten thousand year willow heart is definitely something special. I have a feeling that this one ten thousand year willow heart is more important than 10 thousand year willow hearts”. Luo Feng let out a smile as he heard this.
Isn’t that right?
Cutting down nine willow trees is who knows how many times more easier than cutting down a willow tree king. The ‘ten thousand year willow heart’ in the willow tree king is definitely something special.
“But a treasure like this cannot be consumed without care. We have to show the head to figure out how to use it properly” said investigator Liu seriously, “If a treasure isn’t used properly, it’ll take lives. One year there was a guy who consumed a certain treasure and his body directly blew up because of it”
Luo Feng nodded.
You can die from eating too much food. This ten thousand year willow heart is much better than a thousand year willow heart so, without absolute confidence, Luo Feng wouldn’t foolishly eat it.
“Anyways, Luo Feng, you’ve done something big this time” said investigator Liu, “Reporting the location of the misty island gets you 10%. And you also obtained the ten thousand year willow heart, so that counts as helping us get the treasure. When the time comes, we’ll give you more”
“And now you’re a…… spirit reader at the peak of the advanced level wargod level. The head will probably organize something for you. There’s no need for you to stay in the elite training camp” smiled investigator Liu, “Why would the head not use someone as talented as you? There might be a huge reward for you. The head isn’t a stingy person”
“Investigator…..”
Luo Feng was a bit worried.
“Hm?” investigator Liu looked at Luo Feng, “speak”
“I just want to ask the investigator… I don’t know if the head would be willing to reward me with a Black God set” asked Luo Feng.
Investigator Liu froze, this kid sure doesn’t hold back.
After the battle on this misty island, Luo Feng really wanted a Black God set. The effect of this Black God set is too amazing, way better than a SS grade battle uniform set. Actually, Luo Feng still hasn’t officially obtained the title of wargod. The law says he still isn’t a wargod. Technically, Luo Feng can continue to stay in the elite training camp and get first place over and over again….. wouldn’t he obtain gigantic rewards this way? And also obtain the Black God set?”
“If I stay in the training camp, I’ll have a chance to get it” clowned Luo Feng.
“You kiddo, you’re already invincible in the wargod level and you still have the face to fight over with those kids?” investigator Liu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “However, I really can’t decide over the Black God set. We’ll have to see what the head says when we return!”
Investigators rarely interact with students.
Investigator Liu took the initiative to introduce himself and to talk to Luo Feng. He wanted to get to know Luo Feng. Who would’ve thought that Luo Feng would act like a kid even though he’s an invincible wargod, a figure that can shock an area of the earth. Oh wait….. Luo Feng is only 19, so he actually is a kid.
***
“BOOM~~”
In the night, the entire misty island shook, which shocked Luo Feng, investigator Liu, and representative Farr.
“Let’s hurry up and go!” a loud sound rang.
The golden masked man came back in a rush, “whoosh!”. In the distance, a black purplish vine that had a diameter of 20 cm shot towards him…… with just a glance, you couldn’t tell how long the vine was. With just the light coming from representative Farr’s fire, the naked eye could see a length of 500 to 600 meters; there was still an unknown length in the distant mist.
As if a vine that stretched across the heavens and the earth!
This vine was like a tentacle that stretched across hundreds of meters, and was still rapidly extending as it wrapped towards the golden masked man. The golden masked man’s bag was completely bulged up as it clearly held large amounts of spirits of nature.
