Floating in midair, the black armor and the six curved blades flying in the air were all under Luo Feng’s control through his divine power, turning around and flying back to him.
“Just an ordinary treasure-grade armor.”
“Six ordinary treasure-grade weapons—probably a set. Together, they’re worth about the same as a single high-grade treasure weapon.” Luo Feng put away the treasures and summoned a world ring from a distance. This world ring belonged to Fan Guang Lord, which directly fell to the ground after his death. Luo Feng examined it briefly; it contained merely dozens of heavy treasures and other items, none of which could match the value of even an ordinary treasure.
After killing Fan Guang Lord and collecting the spoils, Luo Feng’s human divine body, although greatly drained from unleashing its ultimate move, remained at peak condition thanks to the supplement provided by the Youhai Clone.
“Whoosh!”
With a flap of his wings, Luo Feng transformed into a streak of light and flew away. His speed remained steady, flying just below light speed.
Surrounding him was complete silence, with no signs of disturbance or traces left behind.
No one could tell that a Cosmic Monarch had just perished here.
…
In the vast territory controlled by the Northern Border Alliance, within the starry sky where the Zhiye race lived, there was a life-bearing planet entirely dark red in color. On this planet stood the palace of Fan Guang Lord.
The palace wasn’t large, but it was considered one of the holy sites of the Zhiye race. The Zhiye race had six Cosmic Monarchs—Cosmic Monarchs were already the strongest beings in the Zhiye race. Thus, the entire race was divided into six territories, each managed and cultivated by one of the six Cosmic Monarchs.
Inside the palace, disciples and servants respectfully and worshipfully gazed at a distant figure—the avatar left behind by Fan Guang Lord after he departed for the Origin Planet.
The avatar’s power was extremely weak.
However, it was still an extension of Fan Guang Lord’s consciousness, sufficient enough to guide disciples and handle affairs.
“I—”
Boom!
The avatar suddenly exploded and vanished.
“Huh?”
“Lord!”
“Teacher!” The three disciples and several personal servants waiting nearby were shocked. The space around this planet was sealed, and even Fan Guang Lord couldn’t teleport away. How could the avatar suddenly disappear?
“Don’t panic. The teacher must have encountered something extremely important that required his full attention, so he retrieved his consciousness and divine power. That’s why the avatar disappeared.”
“Let’s check the tokens he gave us.”
“Check the tokens.”
The three disciples immediately took out their tokens.
These tokens were objects imbued with the life imprint of Lord Fan Guang, functioning akin to ‘owner-recognized treasures.’ Once shattered, Lord Fan Guang would sense it and rush to the disciple’s aid.
“The token has become unclaimed!” A sharp voice came from one disciple’s throat, and the dual voices from his two heads added a chilling note.
“Unclaimed!”
“Mine has also become unclaimed!”
The three disciples of Zhiye exchanged glances, their eyes brimming with horror and dread. They fully grasped the implications! There were only two ways for an owner-bound artifact to become unclaimed: either the owner personally retrieved the life imprint, or the owner had been slain.
Since Lord Fan Guang was not present to retrieve the mark, the answer was evident—
Fan Guang Lord had perished!!!
“Hurry, notify the other lords.”
“Hurry up!”
“Notify the clan’s high-level leaders.”
The Zhiye race had six Cosmic Monarchs. These six Cosmic Monarchs were the pillars of the entire clan. The loss of one was like the collapse of one of the clan’s supporting pillars. This was a devastating blow to the Zhiye race.
Within moments.
The three Zhiye Cosmic Monarchs who had not gone to the Origin Planet arrived. After carefully questioning Fan Guang Lord’s disciples, the three Cosmic Monarchs dismissed the disciples and servants.
Inside the palace.
The three purple-crystal, two-headed beings stood upright, the atmosphere heavy and oppressive.
“Fan Guang has perished!”
“Who could kill Fan Guang? He didn’t even have time to call for help! Fan Guang had an ordinary treasure-grade armor and stronger offensive capabilities. Killing him… Could it be the work of a Cosmic Sovereign?”
“Even if it wasn’t a Cosmic Sovereign, it must have been an extremely powerful Cosmic Monarch.”
The three Cosmic Monarchs fell silent.
Indeed.
Figures like Fan Guang Lord, Jiufeng Venerable, Peifeng Venerable, and Qixue Palace Lord were all considered typical Cosmic Monarchs. However, there were also some extraordinary Cosmic Monarchs, such as certain special lifeforms with genetic potential reaching 8000 or 9000 times that of ordinary beings. Their divine power was a hundred times more refined than that of typical Cosmic Monarchs! Even with the same attacks, their power was a hundred times stronger!
Moreover, these extraordinary Cosmic Monarchs often obtained even stronger treasures… making their combat abilities truly formidable. Combined with their usually massive divine bodies, they could even withstand attacks from Cosmic Sovereigns for a long time.
“Entering the Origin Planet carries the risk of being killed. We shouldn’t even think about seeking revenge… Beings capable of killing Fan Guang like this are far beyond what our Zhiye race can challenge.”
“Right.”
The three Cosmic Monarchs nodded.
“We must apply to the Northern Border Alliance for Fan Guang’s resurrection.”
“Fan Guang was a Cosmic Monarch. To resurrect him, only the Grand Alliance Leader can do it… You all know the Grand Alliance Leader’s temper. We’ll probably have to wait until he’s in a good mood before he comes to resurrect Fan Guang.”
For Cosmic Lower, Middle, and High-level Venerables, resurrection usually occurs not long after their demise, at most delayed by a few thousand or ten thousand years.
But for Cosmic Monarchs, it’s a different matter.
Because within the entire Northern Border Alliance, only the Grand Alliance Leader could resurrect a Cosmic Monarch! Other Cosmic Sovereigns couldn’t do it. If the Grand Alliance Leader was delayed for some reason for hundreds of millions of years… no one dared to complain.
“Never mind, apply to the alliance and wait patiently.”
“Yes, once Fan Guang is resurrected, we will know exactly how he perished.”
…
The Origin Planet is the closest place to the fundamental essence of the universe. Flying through the skies of the Origin Planet… feels quite wonderful.
Luo Feng flew with a smile, recalling the previous battle.
“This was my first time fighting at full power, and the might was astonishing,” Luo Feng was very satisfied with the power. “It’s no wonder it’s an ultimate secret method of a Cosmic Sovereign. The divine power consumed by this move was extremely extravagant. If it weren’t for my Youhai Clone constantly replenishing it, that single move would have cost me half of my divine body.”
Back in the Beast God Realm, when Luo Feng fought against the Progenitor, he didn’t even burn his divine body. As an immortal being, he could fight without consuming divine power as long as he didn’t burn his divine body.
But in that decisive battle just now, Luo Feng burned his divine body!
Figures like Qixue Palace Lord and Bajian Venerable would cause significant damage to their divine bodies when unleashing their ultimate techniques. Luo Feng’s ultimate secret method of a Cosmic Sovereign, the ‘Golden Light,’ was far superior to the techniques of Qixue Palace Lord and Bajian Venerable. Without deliberately consuming energy, the Golden Light had already drained more than half of Luo Feng’s divine power! Of course, his Youhai Clone quickly replenished it.
The consumption was immense!
And the power was outrageously strong!
“Too powerful.”
“I could feel his ordinary treasure-grade armor was fragile under my blade. If my attack were even stronger, I might have destroyed the treasure,” Luo Feng mused.
With a life genetic potential of 9800 times and a divine power amplification of 100 times, Luo Feng’s divine body was no less formidable than that of a typical Cosmic Monarch! Even unique special lifeforms like the World Tree and Cold Whale in the Ancestor’s Secret Realm, which were comparable to Cosmic Sovereigns in combat power despite being Cosmic Monarchs, had divine power only two levels more refined than Luo Feng’s.
However, Luo Feng’s ultimate secret method of a Cosmic Sovereign was two levels stronger than the World Tree and Cold Whale’s techniques!
The advantage in secret methods compensated for the slight deficiency in divine power.
In terms of combat power!
Once Luo Feng unleashed the ultimate secret method of a Cosmic Sovereign, he could rival even the most extraordinary special lifeforms among the Cosmic Monarchs!
“His treasure armor was too weak, only reducing half of my attack’s power. That’s why his divine body was annihilated.”
“If he had worn a high-grade treasure armor, I estimate I could only have severely injured him. To kill him, I would have needed a few more strikes,” Luo Feng mused. This clearly showed the importance of armor. With a ‘Calamity Armor’ on, even a Cosmic Sovereign would find it hard to deliver an attack that reaches the armor’s ‘limit value.’
“180 million years of cultivation, and the achievements are indeed great.”
Luo Feng nodded in satisfaction.
His profound mastery of the rune diagrams made his current cultivation of the Space Law feel effortless. Although it had only been a few days since he left the Beast God Realm, he had already comprehended the last profound mystery of the Space Law—’Annihilation.’ Now, he only needed to combine ‘Teleportation,’ ‘Sealing,’ and ‘Annihilation’ into one to ascend to the level of a Cosmic Venerable.
However, this final barrier slightly hindered Luo Feng.
Just like some experts who were highly accomplished in the Space Law but were hindered by the final barrier of the Metal Law, Luo Feng, despite his great achievements, was also slightly affected by this barrier. As Situoshake had said, he could break through at any moment, and even if it took longer, he would definitely ascend to the level of a Cosmic Venerable within a thousand years at most.
“When I become a Cosmic Venerable, my divine body will rival extraordinary special lifeforms like the World Tree and Cold Whale. And my secret techniques are even more powerful. At that time, I might truly be able to rival a Cosmic Sovereign,” Luo Feng thought with anticipation. “Moreover, I will then be able to use the Star Tower.”
Luo Feng smiled and continued flying.
He was waiting…
waiting for the next alien expert, like Fan Guang Lord, to come and kill him.
“Come on, I’m a walking treasure trove,” Luo Feng smiled.
…
“Look, look, that’s Luo Feng the human!!!” In a hollow on a plain, three High-Level Cosmic Venerables from the Thorn Ring Alliance were hiding. They were silently waiting for energy fluctuations, but one of them, Ji Qi Venerable, was shocked and looked up at the sky, urgently sending a mental transmission.
“Luo Feng? What Luo… you mean that lucky human kid?” The other two Cosmic Venerables immediately looked up.
All three carefully observed and identified the figure in the sky.
Silver armor, silver wings, black-haired human…
“It’s him, Luo Feng the human.”
“It’s definitely him. He must have at least six treasures on him! And he definitely has soul-type treasures, maybe even a flying palace-type treasure.”
“He dares to come to the Origin Planet. Does this peerless genius think he’s invincible? How dare he be so arrogant…”
“What arrogance! He’s basically a walking treasure trove.”
“Be careful… This human Luo Feng might have some hidden strength.”
“What hidden strength? Even if he has a Cosmic Monarch secretly guarding him inside a world ring, so what!”
The tall grass around them concealed their figures. The three of them watched the figure flying past overhead, each of them burning with excitement in their hearts…
“We must succeed. Our strength is far superior to his, but if he escapes and flies at near-light speed, we won’t be able to catch up. I have a plan that will definitely prevent him from escaping.” The shortest and stout four-legged alien transmitted urgently, and the other two Cosmic Venerables listened carefully.
