Chapter 2375: The Primordial Sun God (2)
Yun Lintian frowned slightly but didn’t say anything.
“However, I soon discovered that I couldn’t refine its power further. It was as if it merely rested inside my body.” Ouyang Feng said further.
“I see,” Yun Lintian nodded slowly. “How did True God Xuanming discover it? And how did he take it away from you?”
“After learning about my former subordinates, I went to the Eastern Divine Region and encountered an ambush from True God Xuanming. At first, he was interested in my treasure and how I managed to come back alive. Later, he discovered the Primordial Sun God’s power within my body. He simply dug it away.” Ouyang Feng said with a hint of anger in his eyes. He didn’t expect to be betrayed by his former subordinates.
“He could actually refine it?” Yun Lintian was puzzled.
“It might sound strange, but I believed it was merely finding a place to stay and wait for the rightful inheritor. Perhaps it needed something to keep itself alive.” Ouyang Feng said with a frown. He always felt that the power didn’t belong to him.
Yun Lintian looked at his Divine Core and saw the Sun symbol was shining ethereally. It was as if the Primordial Sun God’s power had completely merged with the Sun relic.
Ouyang Feng looked at him and said. “It seems you are the rightful inheritor.”
Yun Lintian furrowed his brow as he spoke. “I don’t think I am the one but I also cannot explain it.”
If he could truly absorb the Primordial Sun God’s power, would this mean he could absorb the others as well?
Yun Lintian was completely clueless about the Primordial Gods’ power. He had no idea how powerful and special they truly were. Now that he possessed one, he needed time to study it carefully.
He sighed. “I’m sorry. This should belong to you.”
Ouyang Feng shook his head. “I’ve always believed that no matter how hard you try, what doesn’t belong to you will never stay with you. Moreover, I’m clearly incapable of wielding such power. It would be wasted on me anyway.”
Yun Lintian didn’t know what to say. He felt bad for taking his friend’s chance, but there was nothing he could do.
“Rest here for the time being. If you want to go back, you can contact Ruanyu,” Yun Lintian said.
“Thank you,” Ouyang Feng replied, nodding slowly.
Yun Lintian got up and left the room.
“Brother Feng…” Zhu Jiuxin started to speak, but Ouyang Feng raised his hand to stop her.
“There’s nothing to feel bad about. The moment I came into contact with the power, I knew immediately it wasn’t mine,” Ouyang Feng said with a smile. He pulled the two women into an embrace. “Thank you for working so hard to rescue me.”
“It was our duty,” Zhu Jiuxin said softly, closing her eyes and enjoying Ouyang Feng’s embrace.
“What should we do now?” Gong Yuxiao asked.
“You were expelled from your sect, weren’t you?” Ouyang Feng asked softly.
The two women fell silent. They had been trying to find someone to help them over the past few months, and their sect master had initially tolerated it. In the end, though, they were mercilessly expelled. However, they didn’t complain, as the result was worth it.
“We will stay here,” Ouyang Feng said gently. “Let’s get to know everyone. They are good people. The environment here is also ideal. We can cultivate with peace of mind.”
“Mhm,” Gong Yuxiao and Zhu Jiuxin responded softly.

Leaving the tower, Yun Lintian was puzzled. He had always thought the power of a Primordial God would be far beyond his reach. He hadn’t expected it to come to him so soon, and now he was at a loss for what to do with it.
At that moment, Lin Yitong approached. Her gaze was filled with surprise as she looked at Yun Lintian. “This power… The Primordial Sun God?”
“It’s been a while, Senior,” Yun Lintian greeted her. Clearly, she had just returned.
“How did you obtain it?” Lin Yitong asked.
Yun Lintian quickly explained.
After listening to his narration, Lin Yitong was amazed by how he had managed to absorb it. It was indeed bizarre and incredible.
“Senior, how did you find the other Primordial God inheritors?” Yun Lintian asked. Previously, Lin Yitong had mentioned that the inheritor of the Primordial Star God was killed
by Fan Shen. He was curious how she had learned this.
“Follow me,” Lin Yitong said, waving her hand.
Soon, she led Yun Lintian to the Tower of Fate.
Looking at the thirteen shining paintings, Yun Lintian was even more puzzled. Wasn’t the Star God inheritor already dead? Why would the painting still shine so brightly?
Lin Yitong stepped forward and placed her hand on the Sun God painting. A scorching heat immediately filled the room.
Yun Lintian instantly recognized that the heatwave was exactly the same as the Sun God’s power within his body.
“This…” Yun Lintian was stunned.
Lin Yitong said nothing. She walked to the Moon God painting and placed her hand on it. The heatwave was instantly replaced by moonlight.
As Yun Lintian watched in surprise, Lin Yitong explained, “Previously, no one knew that these paintings contained a characteristic of each Primordial God. I discovered this later.”
Lin Yitong naturally couldn’t tell Yun Lintian that it was Yun Wushuang who had told her.
“I memorized their auras and searched for them throughout the entire Primal Chaos. The first one I encountered was the Star God inheritor. He lived in the Stardust Realm. However, before I could contact him, he was silently killed by the Primordial God Tribe,” Lin Yitong continued.
“Later, I visited the remnants of Yaoxi Palace with Madam Leisure and found a trace of the God of Light’s aura. There’s a very high chance that Yao Xi is the inheritor of the God of
Light.”
Yun Lintian nodded slowly. He finally understood how Lin Yitong had found them. If it weren’t for the paintings, it would be almost impossible to find any trace of them.
“Yao Huang is apparently in contact with the Primordial God Tribe. He’s currently hiding inside the Ancient Devil Realm. There are a few True Devils protecting him. I barely managed to escape from their grasp,” Lin Yitong said.
She frowned slightly. “As for the rest, I couldn’t find them anywhere. Now that the Sun God is
here, it means we are missing the God of Fate, the God of Life, the Mountain God, the God of
Time, and the River God.”
