Chapter 967: Space Whirlpool
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Nine World Trees are living here together, which makes this a bit tricky, thought Luo Feng. But I only need a leaf of the World Tree. It shouldn't be that big of a problem.
Actually, Luo Feng was also worried about another issue. The dwelling place of those World Trees was as strange and exotic as the mountain beside him. It was a place called Nine Remoteness Space.
Nine Remoteness Space was 12 light years long—apparently not as large as the mountain beside him. However, it was one of the most dangerous areas in the Ancestral God secret region. Luo Feng had already known of several creatures that could rival universe masters. The nine World Trees occupied only a corner of that space, but a few other powerful special organisms lived there as well. That was all the information the intelligence had revealed.
The Ancestral God School instructed the heirs about the eight most dangerous places, and Nine Remoteness Space was one of them. These were the places that could trap even a universe master. Creatures that could rival universe masters, which had been discovered by unlucky heirs, might only be the surface of it.
"I need to be careful," Luo Feng reminded himself. "Even universe knights can be trapped in Nine Remoteness Space forever. I need to step lightly and maintain a low profile. I'll let the Mosha body do the work if I run into dangers because my internal world can recover it even if it is destroyed. However, if my original earthling body is damaged and trapped in one of those dangerous places, I might never recover my true treasures."
Luo Feng was indeed a bit nervous, which was perfectly normal given the reputation of Nine Remoteness Space.
"No risk, no reward," he said. "I need to be cautious. But surely I can get a leaf of the World Tree with my multiple bodies technique."
Nine Remoteness Space was extremely dangerous, whereas it was visited the most by the heirs. Why was that? Because they were not afraid of death. Throughout history, heirs who couldn't achieve their breakthroughs had resorted to venturing into this dangerous place. Nine Remoteness Space was indeed dangerous, but it contained the most treasures. Even though many heirs met their demise there, many others gained a lot. A random precious object obtained in Nine Remoteness Space could be a true treasure, which was tempting even to universe knights.
There were many more heirs in ages past. Now, there only around 100 million. Of those who had died in other places, most had died in the secret region.
Luo Feng ate something and relaxed. After half an hour, he flew into the depths of the space alongside the mountain. Sometimes he flew, and sometimes he teleported himself. Always, he was careful.

Inside the palace at the peak of Thunder Island.
Primal Chaos City Leader, dressed in a golden cape, stood in front of his palace overlooking the vast Thunder Island. Below was one palace after another. Countless undying gods lived there, and the undying fighters lived at the bottom. There was a mountain in the middle of the island, and along the hillside lived universe knights. Universe masters lived on the top of the mountain. The summit was surrounded by mist, shrouding the peak from those living below.
The palace of Primal Chaos City Leader was at the peak of the mountain. Standing at the top, Primal Chaos City Leader could see all of Thunder Island, including Yu Xiang Mountain floating afar, where his students were being trained and instructed by the powerful ones.
"Can my student acquire part of a World Tree…?" Chaos City Leader mumbled to himself. "He's bold enough to choose the World Tree as his third body. But, on second thought, everyone who wants to be a supreme being is bold. Although it's dangerous, he has the multi-body technique. I don't need to worry about him falling."
"Nine Remoteness Space," he mused. "Even I haven't been there. That place belongs to the Ancestral God School, and many of the places of that school are off-limits to the six major races. The treasures can only be obtained by the heirs of the Ancestral God School."
Nine Remoteness Space was famously dangerous. However, this was not the case for Gigantic Axe Founder.
Gigantic Axe Founder could, by all means, go in and take all the treasures there, which would have infuriated the three ancestral gods. The Ancestral God secret region belonged to the ancestral gods, and many special organisms were owned by the Ancestral God School, along with other treasures. The ancestral gods could certainly have taken them all; instead, they left them there for the students. After all, such treasures were of no use to them.
The heirs were cultivated by the Ancestral God School and were given some special treatment. They would become sub-members of the school. As for the six major races, the Space Beast Alliance, and the Northern Territory Alliance, they were given no chance of getting in.
"Luo Feng," he said. "It all depends on you now. You need power, brains, and luck. Let's see whether your internal world is strong enough to breed the World Tree body."
Primal Chaos City Leader knew that a result would come in a month or two. He wasn't sure if Luo Feng's internal world could breed the World Tree body. The internal world of the golden-horned beast could breed a body that was 100 times stronger than their original bodies. As for the World Trees at the sector lord level, they were two levels lower than the most powerful one. Perhaps it was just within the limit of Luo Feng's internal world.
"Luck…" said Primal Chaos City Leader. "We shall see whether he has the luck of breeding a World Tree."
Expectations flashed through Primal Chaos City Leader's eyes.

Luo Feng was going forward carefully and trying to dodge all the dangerous places. He wouldn't even go to places he thought might hold treasures, as his only target was the World Tree in Nine Remoteness Space. He didn't want to trouble himself. In the Ancestral God secret region, where there were treasures, there was danger.
Sou!
Luo Feng sped up like a flash of light, followed by his macro-detector and micro-detector, constantly scanning for danger around him. He teleported himself only in some safe areas.
0.8 light years away from Luo Feng, there was an area without any celestial bodies. Luo Feng arrived there after flying and teleporting himself for an hour.
"According to my information, there were hidden dangers in this information." Luo Feng looked at the boundless space. "But, alas, this is the safest route, to my knowledge. I still need to pass 12 dangerous areas to arrive at Nine Remoteness Space."
It was impossible to find an absolutely safe route to Nine Remoteness Space. Luo Feng was, after all, still very weak. Many areas that would have been safe for universe knights were hazardous for him. This area was one of them. Universe knights might have flown across it or teleported through it instantly, whereas the farthest Luo Feng could teleport was one lightyear away.
"Careful…" Luo Feng told himself. He used World Projection, which helped him detect the danger around.
Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou! Sou!
Every time, Luo Feng teleported within the range of World Projection, and each teleportation was tens of millions of miles away. Luo Feng teleported hundreds of times. After teleporting a lightyear away, Luo Feng stopped and started to rest.
"Such short-distance teleportation," Luo Feng said, shaking his head. Ahead of him was still the boundless space.
Weng!
Without warning, a space whirlpool with a diameter of about six thousand miles came into being around Luo Feng. The pressure from the space whirlpool was unbreakable for him.
"Shi Wu Wings!"
Luo Feng opened the wings and tried to drive. With the help of his current level of law comprehension, the complicated Shi Wu Wings were connected by countless threads.
Before, in the outer-region warzone, Luo Feng could only carry out the first form of transformation of Shi Wu Wings. Now, with more and more law threads utilized by Luo Feng, all the edges of the Shi Wu Wings were lengthened and turned golden. The feathers on the wings had previously looked like ordinary feathers with sharp edges. Now, they were long and sharp, like miniature sabers—silver wings with golden edges.
Hua La!
The Shi Wu Wings swung, and the saber-shaped feathers on its edge cut through space. Under the space energy of the Shi Wu Wings, a windy turbulence was formed.
"Break!" Luo Feng shouted.
Trapped in the space whirlpool, Luo Feng struggled to get out. The space whirlpool was blocked entirely from the outside, and he couldn't teleport himself. His only recourse was to damage the space whirlpool with his Shi Wu Wings.
Peng!
After only two seconds, the space whirlpool faded like smoke. Luo Feng was relieved. However, he was dazed at the sight of his surroundings.
"Where… where am I?"
Luo Feng was surrounded by solid ground covered by all sorts of plants and trees. They all had different colors, and a flowery fragrance drifted through the air. A mountain blocked his view in the distance. The sky above the ground was filled with blue air.
"Better check the universe coordinates," Luo Feng said. He was astonished after checking the coordinates. "I—I'm 300 light years away from the space I just left? That space whirlpool must be a natural portal."
Luo Feng frowned and looked around. That whirlpool had disrupted his plan. Fortunately, according to the coordinates, he was actually closer to Nine Remoteness Space, now. As long as he could get out, it would only take him ten days to arrive at Nine Remoteness Space.
"What is this?" he wondered. "I have no information that describes this place."
He looked around, alert. It was an unidentified area, and he had been transferred here by a space whirlpool that had come out of nowhere. Surely, that had been no accident. It was highly likely that there was danger lurking here.
Both the macro-detector and the micro-detector started to scan the surroundings.
"The space ripple here was completely separated from the outside world," he said, "and that blue air seems to be responsible. I can't feel any space ripple outside that layer of blue air."
Luo Feng looked up. It was common for certain districts in the secret regions of the universe that could block teleportation.
"Now I'm in trouble."
