Chapter 1078: Forging a Reputation

In the sky above another primordial star, a grand river of golden light floated midair, with nine strange beasts roaring and swimming within the river.

“It’s a Domain-type treasure!”

“What strong resistance! Never did I expect Luo Feng to actually possess such a treasure. It’s clear that the benefits received by super geniuses from peak clans are indeed different. Even with such weak strength, he already has a Domain-type treasure.”

“It seems we won’t be able to kill that human Luo Feng this time. Let’s go.”

“Let’s go.”

The three Cosmic Sovereigns from the Northern Border Alliance exchanged messages through divine power, striving to break through the layers of river water as they flew outward, but their speed was extremely slow. This caused the three Cosmic Sovereigns to silently curse, as a mere genius at the Eternal level, although he had killed the Howling Mirror King, should only have the combat strength of a mid-tier Cosmic Sovereign. Yet he had obtained a Domain-type treasure! Combined with the already confirmed ‘Soul-type treasure,’ this was even better than the treasures of many cosmic overlords.

“If it weren’t for the Domain-type treasure, he definitely wouldn’t have escaped.”

“Guess he’s just lucky.”

Suddenly—

In the vast golden river ahead, a faint black beast suddenly appeared. The cold killing intent in its dark golden eyes immediately caused the Cosmic Sovereign flying at the front to shudder. He hastily transmitted a warning, “Be careful!!!”

“Roar~~~”

In an instant, the black beast transformed into a streak of golden light, accompanied by a distant, ancient roar. With inconceivable speed, it directly slammed into the scaled chest armor of the leading Cosmic Sovereign. Boom~~~ The top-tier heavy treasure armor on the Cosmic Sovereign’s body shattered instantly, and his divine body was directly annihilated. The black beast continued its charge, accelerating again to strike the second Cosmic Sovereign.

It was just like a steamroller crushing a wolf.

Although a wolf may be fierce and cruel, once crushed by a steamroller, it would certainly be reduced to pulp.

“It’s a trap, a trap!” The only surviving third Cosmic Sovereign stared wide-eyed with his three emerald-green eyes, his purple lips releasing a terrified and furious divine roar, “Human Luo Feng is the bait, the bait!!!”

Whoosh!

A cold golden blade of light slashed directly from behind. The third Cosmic Sovereign was still desperately trying to fend off the black beast when he suddenly felt his divine body tremble. Then, he knew nothing more.

“Now you realize it’s a trap? Too late.” Luo Feng, clad in silver armor with wings spread, stepped forward gripping the Zhan Yue blade. His gaze swept across the drifting fragments of heavy treasures, weapons, and world rings floating in space before casually collecting them all with a wave of his hand. Sheathing the Zhan Yue blade, he then stored the golden-horned behemoth into his world ring in an instant.

“This is what happens when you’re out of the loop.”

“Other forces in the cosmos don’t have the Virtual Universe, so they can’t receive real-time information,” Luo Feng said lightly. “Especially factions like the Northern Border Alliance and the Nine Regions Alliance, which consist of numerous races. Particularly the Northern Border Alliance… they really have a lot of races. Nearly a third of the alien Sovereigns I’ve killed are from them.”

Only after venturing into the primordial stars did he truly feel the Northern Border Alliance’s overwhelming numbers.

Back in the open square of the Purple Thistle Island, the number of Beast God inheritors from the Hong Alliance was generally around a thousand. However, the Northern Border Alliance had hundreds of thousands! From this proportion alone, one could faintly discern the ratio of strong experts.

“Some Cosmic Sovereigns already know… they should retreat upon encountering me.”

“But there are still some Cosmic Sovereigns who haven’t received this news yet.”

Luo Feng willed his mind, and the endless golden waves vanished. Then he transformed into a streak of silver light flying into the distance. Yet, in the sky where the battle had previously occurred, there wasn’t a trace left—every single fragment of the heavy treasures had been completely taken away by Luo Feng.

Inside the open-air bar of the Hong Alliance City in the Virtual Universe.

Connected to the Virtual Universe through his Infinite Abyss consciousness, Luo Feng usually visited once every ten days or half a month. He had been silently waiting for news from the Tianyang Sovereign. However, with 10,081 primordial stars, it was extremely vast. Moreover, the Tianyang Sovereign was a cosmic overlord who acted alone. Once he had hidden himself in some place, he might remain hidden for hundreds or even thousands of years.

It would indeed take time and luck to find his location.

“Luofeng.”

“Daohe.”

Walking through the open-air bar, many Cosmic Sovereigns greeted him warmly. Even the rare occasional cosmic overlords who appeared were very polite to Luo Feng. After all, Luo Feng’s combat achievements over the past nearly a year in the primordial stars were quite shocking. Although other factions were slow in transmitting information, the Hong Alliance experts had quickly spread the news.

In the past year, the number of alien Sovereigns and cosmic overlords who had perished due to Luo Feng was no small number.

Although they all believed it was the work of a top-tier cosmic overlord hiding in Luo Feng’s world ring, the fact that such a top-tier cosmic overlord was willing to stay in Luo Feng’s world ring proved Luo Feng’s status and position! Naturally, every expert would be willing to befriend such a top-tier cosmic overlord.

Even the Cosmic Lords would highly value top-tier cosmic overlords.

Because—

The combat power of top-tier cosmic overlords was very close to that of Cosmic Lords. Moreover, they could be resurrected after death. However, if a Cosmic Lord died, they could never be resurrected again! This led to top-tier cosmic overlords having a very special status.

“Luofeng.” A familiar voice came.

Luofeng turned his head and saw two experts sitting in a corner not far away, and there were no other experts around that corner.

“Guiyi Sovereign, Buzhi Sovereign?” Luo Feng was secretly startled. He now understood why there were no other experts nearby. These two held extraordinary statuses—Guiyi Sovereign was a highly valued disciple of the Chaos City Lord, while Buzhi Sovereign was a disciple of the Axe Creator. Both were exceptional figures.

Luofeng immediately smiled and walked over.

Guiyi Sovereign was dressed in a crimson battle robe as always, barefoot and bald, and seeing him naturally made one feel inner peace. However, Luo Feng, who had been cultivating for 180 million years, had a willpower stronger than before. He had already reached the threshold level of a Cosmic Lord, so he was completely unaffected.

Luo Feng had met Buzhi Sovereign once before, during a virtual universe communication. Buzhi Sovereign was dressed the same as last time, wearing a peculiar battle armor covered with tens of thousands of vines. His face was covered with vines, and only his pair of emerald-green eyes remained, exuding the same eerie aura. Back when Luo Feng was still weak, he had once fallen victim to this.

In the eyes of the younger Luo Feng and Zhenyan King, Buzhi Sovereign and Guiyi Sovereign were both Cosmic Overlords, towering figures beyond reach. However, nowadays, Luo Feng clearly understood the capabilities of these two. Guiyi Sovereign was at the normal Cosmic Overlord level, only that his treasures were better, and he was skilled in both illusion techniques and close combat.

Buzhi Sovereign had a great reputation. His actual combat strength was just at the normal Cosmic Overlord level. However, his survival ability was strangely strong, and no one had been able to kill him so far. He had been given the universally recognized title of ‘Undying.’

“Senior Brother,” Luo Feng walked over with a smile, “Buzhi Sovereign.”

“Sit down,” Guiyi Sovereign smiled.

“You’ve grown up quickly. Back then, you were very weak, far from the Eternal level. A mere glance from me affected you. But back then you were able to eventually shake off my gaze’s influence. Now it turns out you’re indeed extraordinary. I’ve heard that dozens of Cosmic Sovereigns have perished because of you. Haha, impressive, very impressive,” Buzhi Sovereign’s voice was strange and sharp. However, Luo Feng, who had spoken with him before, knew that Buzhi Sovereign naturally spoke this way.

“Luofeng, both Buzhi Sovereign and I are curious. Exactly how many alien Sovereigns and overlords have perished because of your top-tier Cosmic Overlord friend?” Guiyi Sovereign smiled.

“Not too bad,” Luo Feng smiled. “In total, 82 Cosmic Sovereigns and 5 Cosmic Overlords.”

“Five Cosmic Overlords?”

Both Guiyi Sovereign and Buzhi Sovereign showed a trace of shock on their faces. They themselves were at this level, of course, with great background and strong treasures, their survival abilities were much stronger. Even so, they still felt it unbelievable.

“It’s mainly because, at the beginning, many alien Sovereigns who saw me and felt greed came to hunt me down, but ended up being killed instead… especially in the first half month, many aliens perished. But later, as the news spread, more and more aliens became aware of these events. When they saw me, they would stay far away. Occasionally, I would encounter some aliens who were out of the loop. It’s been three months, and I’ve only met one unlucky guy,” Luo Feng explained.

This was indeed the truth.

The news spread faster and wider over time. The consecutive deaths of several well-known Cosmic Sovereigns completely established Luo Feng’s reputation! Even alien Cosmic Overlords would go out of their way to avoid him upon seeing him, not daring to get close.

“Who exactly is your friend?” Guiyi Sovereign couldn’t help but ask. “Can you tell us?”

“He’s called Luo Feng,” Luo Feng smiled.

“Don’t joke around,” Guiyi Sovereign laughed. “If you don’t want to say, it’s okay.”

Luo Feng sighed inwardly.

Truly, no one believed him. Not a single expert believed it was him until now! No wonder, in the eyes of these experts… even if he had broken through to become a Cosmic Sovereign, the comprehension of laws couldn’t be rushed. It was normal for someone to spend a hundred million years advancing from the fourth to the seventh level of the Beast God Path.

In the eyes of these experts, in such a short time of nearly 20,000 years, his mastery of secret techniques must still be very low. Even if his divine body was somewhat stronger… it was still far inferior to the existence of cosmic overlords like the “World Tree,” “Purple Rain Sovereign,” and “Tian Shi Lord.”

“If you insist on knowing a name… Jin Feng Sovereign,” Luo Feng said.

“Jin Feng Sovereign?”

Guiyi Sovereign and Buzhi Sovereign exchanged glances, both showing confusion. Who? They hadn’t heard of him.

“Are you messing with us?” Buzhi Sovereign’s emerald eyes carried a trace of suspicion.

“I’m not lying. You’ll find out eventually,” Luo Feng smiled.

“Is he an alien?” Guiyi Sovereign asked.

“He can be considered an alien,” Luo Feng nodded.

Just then, Luo Feng noticed from the corner of his eye a figure in the distance repeatedly glancing his way. Looking closely, it was indeed the Niuzhou Sovereign. When Niuzhou Sovereign saw Luo Feng looking, he quickly signaled with his eyes.

“Senior Brother, Buzhi Sovereign, I’ll go meet a friend,” Luo Feng stood up with a smile, then walked toward Niuzhou Sovereign, who promptly came forward to greet him. Upon meeting, he immediately lowered his voice and shielded their surroundings: “Daohe, Tianyang Sovereign has been located.”

Tianyang Sovereign?

It was as if a bucket of icy water had been poured over his head, Luo Feng’s mind jolted awake, and his eyes instantly lit up.
