Chapter 1175: Recognizing its Master Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio As the spirit of Shi Wu Wings was newly born and was not very clear in expressing itself. Luo Feng was naturally extremely patient with it, spending almost half a days’ time before he finally gained some understanding. Although this spirit had just been born, it did have some snippets of memories. It did not remember scenes of battle and fighting; rather, it remembered the looks of its previous owners… Its previous owner, based on what the spirit of Shi Wu Wings said, was a giant with two horns and a towering godly body that had six pairs of wings. Shi Wu Wings made up two out of those six pairs of wings. And… the spirit of Shi Wu Wings was absolutely certain that its six pairs of wings were comparable to one another. Every pair was equally important. Within the structure of the entire true treasure, every pair had its own unique function. A missing pair would deprive the true treasure of true perfection. “Then why is it so powerful?” Luo Feng asked. The spirit of Shi Wu Wings explained that it was because of its origin! “Origin” referred to the core of all six pairs of wings. Based on the communication with Shi Wu Wings and the understanding he gained from it, its origin worked in a way similar to a car engine! And it had “storage” efficiency. Its previous owner was very powerful, and much of his godly power had needed to undergo conversion by the origin before it could be stored. That was the significance of the origin’s existence, and that was why this pair of wings was so powerful. “I have to obtain it, but how do I do it?” Luo Feng asked. “Get it to recognize you as its master,” Shi Wu said. “How do I get it to recognize me as its master?” Luo Feng continued to press for answers. “When a master imprints his godly power on the wings, the moment life imprints are in place, the wings will recognize its master,” Shi Wu said, then anxiously added, “but Master, I am a newborn spirit, and that pair of wings has a spirit, too. Toward the end, when fusion is completed, we two spirits will have to attack and fight each other to the death. One will swallow the other, until finally, there is only one spirit left. Master, if there comes a time to recognize our masters, you must help me. Only you can help me… Then I will be able to devour it.” Luo Feng sighed to himself, it was only half a day of interaction, but the more the spirit of Shi Wu Wings spoke, the stronger its ability in exchanging information grew. “All right, I will help you.” Luo Feng nodded. Shi Wu had been with him the moment it was born. On the other hand, the spirit of the pair of white wings harbored ill intentions. If he had to choose, it would obviously be better to choose Shi Wu. “But Shi Wu, with my godly power, I am unable to get close to that pair of wings. What should I do?” Luo Feng asked. Shi Wu was the spirit of a true treasure. When it was first born, it would naturally be clear on its requirements for recognizing its master. “Recognizing a master is difficult,” said Shi Wu. “Because that pair of white wings has an origin within it, and that origin is its core, the spirit born within that pair of wings was actually a spirit born with the origin as its main body. For us other kinds of wings, we can recognize someone as our masters easily, but it is different for the white pair of wings… The difficulty level for it to recognize someone as its master matches that of a complete wing true treasure.” “What are the requirements?” Luo Feng questioned further. “The requirements for willpower are high,” Shi Wu explained. “For a sector lord, the willpower must match that of a universe knight. For an undying fighter, the willpower must match that of a universe master. For a universe knight, the willpower must match that of a universe supreme master. For a universe supreme master, the willpower must exceed that of one beyond a universe supreme master.” Luo Feng was astounded. He continued to bombard Shi Wu with more questions: “Beyond a universe supreme master? That really exists? “Yes, I vaguely remember so from the snippets of my memories,” Shi Wu said. “There is a much stronger existence than the universe supreme master that Master knows of. My previous master was one of them!” Luo Feng took a deep breath. Really? It was indeed true! Countless great beings within Universe Ocean had speculated about this—especially the universe masters from the two holy grounds. Those universe masters were especially arrogant and regarded their “universe ancestors” as far superior to the ancestors of the various other universe supreme masters. They even considered their ancestors to be more powerful than Teacher Origin, who was said to be invincible! They shouted aloud that their universe ancestors were extremely powerful, that their universe ancestors were invincible! Yet no one had met those two before. However, it did not matter whether it was Teacher Origin or the other universe supreme beings. To the largely damaged miniature universe, they were all considered to be only slightly bigger; the two holy grounds that had two universes were the ones that were massive. The two holy grounds had undergone umpteen rounds of reincarnation, which had caused the other 100-plus powers to be wary of the legendary universe masters of these two holy grounds. In their hearts, they had identified with the fact that these two universe ancestors were possibly terrifying. It was just that no one had met them before. Countless eras… No one had met them before. Therefore, everyone took them to be non-existent. Shi Wu Wings’ previous master was a being that was more powerful than a universe supreme master. Luo Feng was stunned. Really! It turns out to be true! There really is an existence that is more powerful than a universe supreme master… Seems like the universe ancestors of the two holy grounds may have surpassed that level. Could it be… for my miniature universe to achieve eternal existence, I have to surpass a universe supreme master? Luo Feng came to a conclusion. Eternity was a difficult objective to achieve. Countless miniature universes had been destroyed. Only those of the two holy grounds had managed to survive, clearly showing the difficulty level. Seems like this has implicated some of the secrets of Universe Ocean, Luo Feng thought. Luo Feng buried all these thoughts deep within him. After all, in the vast Universe Ocean, where great beings gathered in great numbers, with that modest amount of power he had, he was still far from having a pristine understanding of those secrets of Universe Ocean. “Shi Wu, you mentioned recognizing someone as its master?” Luo Feng could not contain his questions. “The requirements are so high?” “Master, you are a universe knight, so your willpower must match that of a universe supreme master,” Shi Wu said. “I am not so sure about the other extremely powerful true treasures, But I know that it is the case for that pair of white wings.” After all, they were both wings born from the same origin, so naturally, Shi Wu would understand the white wings well. “What if I cannot reach that level of willpower?” Luo Feng pressed. “Then you cannot succeed,” Shi Wu replied without hesitation. “At most, you fail to get it to recognize you as its master. Your life will not be in any form of danger.” “Recognizing someone as its master does not have any relation to life gene level?” asked Luo Feng. “Not at all,” Shi Wu answered with certainty. Luo Feng’s pupils contracted as he squinted. He had found the white wings suspicious earlier on. Now that Shi Wu had been born, from the various information he had acquired from Shi Wu, there was clearly no relation between recognizing a master and life gene level. Actually, thinking back to when he’d gotten Star Tower to recognize him as its owner, his life genes had not been involved at all. And the spirit of that pair of white wings had lied to him… lied by saying that a universe knight would need the willpower of a universe master. The truth was otherwise. A universe knight would require the willpower of a universe supreme master! “Shi Wu,” Luo Feng said. “Previously, when I was interacting with that pair of white wings…” 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺 Luo Feng told Shi Wu every detail about the previous conversation he had with the pair of white wings. “It is lying to you, Master, it is lying to you!” Shi Wu said quickly. “Your current willpower, Master, is not enough at all. It will be too dangerous. I suspect that it is tricking you into believing that it will recognize you as its master. It is highly possible that it wants to kill you, Master. Just one of the rays from its wings could annihilate you.” “I am already aware of that, Shi Wu. Tell me, what should I do to get hold of it?” “When Master’s willpower has reached an appropriate level, there are two ways. One is to imprint your godly power on that pair of wings. Once imprinted, your godly power will naturally spread to every inch of the wings.” Shi Wu elaborated further: “The other way is to get the pair of white wings to hand over its core origin. Once its origin makes its way to Master, Master can imprint his godly power onto its origin. Then it would have to recognize you as its master. But it has to be the origin. Any other individual component would be useless.” Luo Feng nodded. He understood. Just like how Star Tower recognized him as its master, it had to be Tower Pearl fusing with the soul; if any other component within Star Tower—for instance, a sealed star—attempted to recognize someone as its master, it would not be of any help to Star Tower at all. “Master, you should wait,” Shi Wu continued. “Wait patiently. If that pair of white wings starts to panic, then there might be a chance. So long as it gets its origin to fly out, I can clearly judge whether that is its origin or not. By then, Master can trap its origin within Star Tower. Star Tower is extremely powerful. If the origin is trapped within one of its space, it would definitely be able to escape. Master, you may as well loosen up for a long, slow wait. Go hone your willpower until your willpower reaches the threshold. Then you can obtain the origin to make it recognize you as its master.” Luo Feng nodded. “All right. I will wait!” ****** With the passing of time, the spirit of Shi Wu grew rapidly and at a visible range. Its intelligence level was not high, but its operational speed was extremely high, so when it came to the dissemination of information, it was naturally even clearer and more lucid. Shi Wu was rearranging the snippets of its memories, then combining them with the various materials gathered from the present-day Universe Ocean to churn out a large number of deductions. Another three years passed. Finally, the pair of white wings transmitted a communication wave to Luo Feng. “Human,” the spirit of the white wings said. Luo Feng laughed to himself. Indeed, it had come looking for him. “Are you stalling for time on purpose?” began the spirit of the white wings. “You know that I want to self-restore; you have unlimited life. You have come to know that this place is a good place for honing your willpower and that it is hard to come by, so you are not in any hurry, right?” “Right,” Luo Feng replied honestly. “You are very straightforward, but you are not willing to take out a single pinnacle true treasure,” the spirit of the white wings said. “That is very disappointing.” “I’m not willing to take the gamble,” said Luo Feng. “If I failed, wouldn’t I be losing a pinnacle true treasure? A pinnacle true treasure is very important to me.” “I am much stronger that a pinnacle true treasure,” the spirit of the white wings said. “But you have yet to recognize anyone as your master,” Luo Feng replied. “Why should you be so insistent about my giving you a pinnacle true treasure first? If you recognize me as your master, I will own you, an extremely powerful true treasure. Naturally, I will find ways to make you even more powerful. A super great being only needs a few true treasures that suit himself. No one great being, after owning a true treasure such as yourself, would let your potential go to waste by not finding ways to boost your ability.” Silence. Soon after, the spirit of the white wings retreated. Luo Feng closed his eyes and continued to train his willpower. He was in no rush at all. ****** In the blink of an eye, another three years went by. The communication wave came along again. “All right, I concede defeat,” the spirit of the white wings admitted. “Hahaha, don’t worry,” said Luo Feng. “So long as you recognize me as your master, I will definitely find ways to restore you and allow your power to grow tremendously. You are my trump card. Wings, this process about recognizing your master—it requires your core component, doesn’t it? “Yes,” the pair of white wings said. “I am now going to release a core component. Grab it and imprint your godly power. Then I will have to recognize you as my master. I hope you won’t disappoint me.” “I will not disappoint you,” Luo Feng said. Hua! A speck of light came flying out of the edge of the pair of white wings. The very next moment, the densely gathered blade-rays were sent flying away in random directions due to the impact of the collision. They were sent tens of thousands of kilometers away. At times, a random blade-ray would happen to hit this speck of light right in its middle. Far away, amidst the endless blade storm, that speck of light was flying about haphazardly. “Shi Wu, is that the origin?” Luo Feng asked quickly. “No, Master,” said Shi Wu. “The origin is the source of those lights. If it flies out, then countless blade-rays will be following it around as it flies. It is the true core of the endless rays. That is fake. I am sure of it. There is a blade-ray concealed within it. If you try to get it to recognize you as your master, the blade will attack you right away… Then Master will die.”
