Permanent Martial Arts

In the Divine Palace of Bemond, Lin Feng was alone in a secret chamber.

Lin Feng could still remember Divine King Bemond's shocked expression when he learned that he had comprehended the Principle of Space.

In the past, Divine King Bemond had only thought that Lin Feng had the potential to undergo metamorphosis, and had a high chance of becoming a Divine Emperor.

However, Divine King Bemond himself could not guarantee whether it would take 10,000 years, 100,000 years, or even a million years either. That was just potential.

Now that Lin Feng had comprehended the Principle of Space, this meant that Lin Feng was almost halfway to becoming a Divine Emperor. However, Lin Feng still had ambitions. He still wanted to cultivate his combat body to the consummate state again.

The consummate combat body could not only increase Lin Feng's combat power by leaps and bounds, but also lay a solid foundation. In particular, Lin Feng's goal was not just to become a Divine Emperor, but to surpass Divine Emperors, transform into a universe, and achieve transcendence!

This was a goal that even the two famed Divine Emperors, Divine Emperor Void Sky and the Divine Emperor of Silence, could not achieve. As the third practitioner of transformation into a universe, Lin Feng naturally knew very well how important foundations were.

If his foundation was not solid, even if he really comprehended the three Principles of Time, Space, and Life in the future, he might still fail. If he wanted to transcend, every step of cultivation must be incomparably solid.

Lin Feng did not take the matter of the Divine Venerable of Massacre too seriously. With his current strength, with the integration of the three Principles, no one less than a Divine Venerable could do anything to him.

It was precisely because Lin Feng had revealed a little of his strength that Divine King Bemond finally agreed to Lin Feng's method. They would survive this crisis first, before discussing establishing the alliance.

There were still three days left. Lin Feng would not waste them. Divine Heart was still sealed in the Starfell Pearl.

Swoosh.

Lin Feng reached out and grabbed. Divine Heart appeared in the secret chamber.

At this moment, Divine Heart's face was pale, and his eyes were dispirited. He looked despondent. His mighty air of being a Divine Venerable from back then was nowhere to be seen, let alone the demeanor of the Divine Emperor of Silence.

"Divine Heart!"

Lin Feng looked at Divine Heart coldly.

As Lin Feng's voice sounded, Divine Heart gradually raised his head. A mocking smile appeared on his lips. "Ask away. You can ask anything you want. Heh, I lost. I lost completely."

All the energy and spirit of Divine Heart had drained out of him. He looked like it had nothing left to live for.

Lin Feng pondered for a moment and said, "I need to obtain information about it."

Lin Feng flipped his hand, and the Sacred Stone of Anathema appeared in his hand.

"This stone…"

Divine Heart frowned. Then, he seemed to be incredulous as he asked in disbelief, "You hunted me down because of this stone?"

"What do you think?"

Lin Feng was indeed hunting down Divine Heart because of the Sacred Stone of Anathema. In Lin Feng's eyes, the Sacred Stone of Anathema was the most important thing. However, Divine Heart did not know the use of this Sacred Stone. He thought hard, but in the end, he shook his head and said, "I did not inherit memories regarding this stone from the Divine Emperor of Silence."

"Nothing?"

If not, wouldn't Lin Feng's efforts be in vain?

"No, you definitely know! This Sacred Stone is also very important to the Divine Emperor of Silence. You must have inherited this memory. Even if all other memories are gone, the Divine Emperor of Silence would not lose this memory."

Lin Feng's gaze was sharp as a blade as he stared intently at Divine Heart.

Since the Divine Emperor of Silence knew the use of the Sacred Stone of Anathema, and had relied on it to eventually become a Universe Supremacy who dominated an era, the memories of the Sacred Stone of definitely would not be lost.

Moreover, the Sacred Stone of Anathema was so well-concealed in the essence blood in the heart of the Divine Emperor of Silence. It was enough to show how much importance the Divine Emperor of Silence placed on the Sacred Stone of Anathema.

"But I really don't know. Let me think about it…"

Divine Heart seemed to be thinking hard as well. According to Lin Feng's detection, Divine Heart did not have any second thoughts. He had completely admitted defeat. He did whatever Lin Feng asked him to do, almost like a puppet, and did not even beg Lin Feng to spare him.

Divine Heart was ultimately just Divine Heart, not the true Divine Emperor of Silence!

Now that he had been reduced to Lin Feng's prisoner, he had long given up hope.

After a long while, Divine Heart raised his head, as if he had thought of something.

"I indeed do not have any memories of this Sacred Stone. If there's really any, there's only a stretch of memory, and it's completely blank. I can only vaguely understand that there's a memory regarding the Big Bang that's completely blank. Back when Divine Emperor of Silence was only an ordinary Grand Emperor, he participated in the Big Bang and obtained an artifact."

"However, I don't know what this artifact is. From then on, Divine Emperor of Silence embarked on the path of legends, and eventually became the Universe Supremacy!"

Lin Feng's eyes lit up. If it was the Big Bang, that was really possible.

The Sacred Stone of Anathema came from the Chaos, which was in line with Lin Feng's previous hypothesis. However, if that was the case, his plan to obtain clues about the Sacred Stone of Anathema from the Divine Heart would be in vain.

Actually, on second thought, this was within expectations. If there were really clues to the Sacred Stone of Anathema, the Divine Emperor of Silence had dominated a cosmic era back then and become a Universe Supremacy. How could he not search for the Sacred Stone of Anathema?

However, in the end, Divine Emperor of Silence only had one Sacred Stone of Anathema. In all likelihood, Divine Emperor of Silence only obtained this Sacred Stone of Anathema by chance as well.

In the end, the clues were still severed. Back when Lin Feng hunted down Divine Heart, it was because there was a trace of hope. However, that hope was very slim. From the looks of it now, it was more than slim—the clue was severed entirely.

However, Lin Feng did not gain nothing. At the very least, Divine Heart was his gain.

"Divine Heart, you should not have existed in this world in the first place. Perhaps even you did not realize this: you inherited the memories of the Divine Emperor of Silence, yet you also think of yourself as Divine Heart. But in reality? The memories of the Divine Emperor of Silence are constantly affecting you. It has only been a short period of time now. Perhaps you still do not understand. In a thousand or ten thousand years, when your memories are completely overwritten by the memories of the Divine Emperor of Silence, will you still be Divine Heart then? You will be the Divine Emperor of Silence."

"In other words, Divine Emperor of Silence will revive!"

Lin Feng's words were not an exaggeration. It was indeed possible for things to develop to that extent. As Divine Heart continued being affected constantly by the memories of Divine Emperor of Silence, in the future, Divine Heart would no longer be Divine Heart, but the actual Divine Emperor of Silence.

"That's right. Sometimes, I'm also confused. Am I Divine Heart, or the Divine Emperor of Silence? Perhaps the Divine Emperor of Silence was never dead after all."

Divine Heart had lost all hope.

Lin Feng's expression was also very complicated. Divine Heart had devoured a few Divine Kings. What he had done was actually not much different from fiends. In fact, in order to recover from his injuries, Divine Heart would probably not hesitate to devour the entire Pelagios Domain.

Lin Feng would not feel any pity towards Divine Heart.

However, Divine Heart was also affected by the Divine Emperor of Silence. He wanted to recover to the strength of the Divine Emperor of Silence at his peak. But upon careful analysis, this was unlikely.

A Divine Venerable was basically the limit of Divine Heart. The Divine Emperor's heart could only allow Divine Heart to mobilize the power of a Divine Venerable. It was impossible for him to recover to the peak state again.

"Divine Heart, you should not have existed in this world in the first place. In that case, ashes to ashes, dust to dust. Go to sleep…"

Lin Feng's voice drifted. Gradually, Divine Heart felt more and more tired, and finally could not even open his eyes. He knew that he was about to die, and truly fade away.

He thought of how during this period of time, he had relied on the Divine Emperor's heart and worked hard for billions of years, just to take a form. Thinking about it now, it felt like a dream.

Now, it was time to wake up from the dream, and he should return to peace and fade completely…
