I'll Quit Being a God-Novel

Chapter 209: Eight Trigrams in the Palm of One's Hand

In the sea of stars, Lu Heng earnestly explained the situation to Yu Huaifeng.

Yu Huaifeng, however, didn't suspect that the Wolf God was holding back.

• Or, even if the Wolf God was holding back, they would not be able to verify it.

At the very least, the Wolf God has always treated people with sincerity and would not deceive them in such matters.

The inheritance of ancient gods may be very attractive to others, but for the Wolf God, whose Taoist cultivate has already been established, it is nothing special.

We are all ancient gods, and you want me to inherit your legacy? If I inherit it, won't I be inferior to you? Where would that leave my dignity?

Yu Huaifeng, who is unaware of the owner's identity in this starry sea, speculates on the Wolf God's thoughts.

He even suspects that the Wolf God is not incapable of inheriting this starry sea, but rather unwilling, which is why he came out so quickly.

Judging from the Wolf God's familiarity with this place, it doesn't seem like the first time he has entered this starry sky. Perhaps the ancient god who created this star system is an old acquaintance of his…

While Yu Huaifeng speculated in his heart, he maintained a smile on his face.

"In that case, I am grateful for the guidance of the Wolf God. We always thought this starry sea was left by our ancestors to contain demons. We didn't expect that we were passing over a precious treasure. If it weren't for the Wolf God's guidance, we would have truly wasted it."

Yu Huaifeng calculated in his mind that he must inform Lord about this matter as soon as he returns and select a suitable Mermaid for the Extreme Hell Prison as soon as possible.

If a destined person could truly be found to completely control this galaxy, the national power of the Mermaid Kingdom would become even stronger. Even if they encounter demonic turmoil in the Extreme Abyss again, they will be able to handle it more easily.

Lu Heng nodded and said, "Then, please let Master Yu take me to meet Miss Huo Feng… the mysteries of this place are left to all of you."

Although the inheritance of Fu Xi was tempting, Lu Heng was not very interested.

The thunder technique that Lu Heng cultivated was different from that of the cultivators in the world below. If he wanted to inherit this galaxy, he might have to abandon his thunder cultivation.

This might not be a good thing for Lu Heng. Although inheriting the Great God's legacy was powerful, was it necessarily stronger than cultivating thunder?

This may not be the case.

Now, Lu Heng's study of the Taoist classics has gained some insight. If he continues to cultivate his Heavenly Thunder Way, it may not be inferior in the future.

Perhaps the great god also saw this, so he reluctantly sent Lu Heng away.

Otherwise, it is unlikely that Lu Heng's identity as a descendant of Xuanyuan alone could trigger the Starry Sea Formation specially reserved for those who are predestined.

At least that divine thought, if it was really triggered by the bloodline of Xuanyuan, it could not have spoken out the phrase "Xuanyuan's bloodline" only after Lu Heng appeared, and it would not have let Lu Heng leave with disappointment.

If he was called in because of his Xuanyuan bloodline, he should at least say a few words and catch up, right? The disappointed tone isn't at all like meeting a long-lost relative with the same bloodline.

Lu Heng suspected that he was qualified to inherit this starry sky as per the requirements of the deity.

However, the deity was disappointed as he saw no need for Lu Heng to inherit his legacy and gave up.

Furthermore, although the vague figure claimed to have nothing to offer Lu Heng, a faint Eight Trigrams pattern appeared in the palm of Lu Heng's hand when he left.

Under the spiritual connection, there seems to be a mystery within the Eight Trigrams pattern that is even more suitable for Lu Heng than the inheritance of this starry sea.

However, now that Lu Heng is in the starry sea and in the presence of Yu Huaifeng, he is temporarily unable to trigger the mysteries hidden within the Eight Trigrams pattern.

Having left this starry sea together with Yu Huaifeng, they continued their journey deeper into the starry sea.

The area where Huo Feng is being held is far away, deep in the vast galaxy.

Meanwhile, Lu Heng and his group are only at the edge of the starry sky. To put it in figurative terms, they have just entered the prison gates.

On the other hand, the location where Huo Feng is being held is at the center of this vast galaxy, a massive star emitting a faint blue glow.

With a diameter of nearly a hundred yards, it can be considered a colossal object.

It should be noted that in this ocean of stars, most stars have a diameter of only about three meters.

Upon arriving at this star emitting a faint blue light, Yu Huaifeng took out a seal and said to Lu Heng.

"With the seal in hand, the Wolf God can visit your friend inside this star. But be sure not to linger for too long, as the seal only exists for half an hour, after which the Wolf God will have to remain within the star."

Saying this, Yu Huaifeng looked somewhat worriedly at the little girl beside him.

He wasn't afraid of the Wolf God being trapped inside, considering that it wouldn't take too long to create another seal.

But if the Wolf God were to be imprisoned inside it, that silver-haired wolf-eared girl might get angry and destroy the stars with a single sword strike…Though the stars in this vast and numerous starry sky cannot be reproduced and would be gone once destroyed.

No matter how numerous the stars are, they cannot withstand such turmoil!

Lu Heng saw the concern in Yu Huaifeng's eyes and felt somewhat helpless yet amused.

He patted Xiao Ai on the shoulder and said, "I'll go in later. If I can't come out in time due to delay, please don't destroy the stars here."

Lu Heng's advice made Xiao Ai blush and feel embarrassed.

With a hearty laugh, Lu Heng took the seal handed over by Yu Huaifeng, and went straight to the hundred-meter-diameter blue star ahead.

As he approached, Lu Heng felt a slight burning sensation, but it was not serious.

When he was ten meters away from the star, a portal appeared in the void ahead. Lu Heng stepped in and found himself inside the star.

Unlike what Lu Heng had imagined, the inside of this star was not a gloomy and terrifying prison, nor was it a raging sea of magma, but a vast grassland.

Above the grassland stands a towering, ancient tree without leaves, only with withered branches and aged bark, appearing lifeless and seemingly dead.

And in the form of a woman, Huo Feng now sits cross-legged under this huge withered tree, without shackles or chains, yet afraid to leave the area covered by the tree roots, obediently sitting still under the tree.

Lu Heng's appearance surprised Huo Feng for a moment, then filled her with great joy.

"Senior Wolf God!"

Despite his excitement, he merely stood up and dared not take a step outside.

This scene made Lu Heng realize that this strange withered tree was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Huo Feng appears to not be wearing shackles, but it's only because they're not visible.

As he approached the withered tree, Lu Heng smiled and spoke to the woman below from several meters away.

"Brother Huo seems to be quite interested, as you came to play in such a secluded place. It made it quite difficult for me to find you."
