“Block him?” The Flame Lord Zhuohuo hesitated immediately. Although he was part of the Monster Alliance, he wasn’t actually a monster himself, but rather the leader of a powerful race. The Blood Cloud Palace Master was notoriously ruthless, having once slain two Cosmic Sovereigns. His strength undoubtedly ranked among the pinnacle of Cosmic Sovereigns. While Zhuohuo was no pushover, he still fell short in comparison.
“Just stall him!” Meng Yaozu ordered. “Besides, you still have a clone!”
“I do have a clone, but this old fellow hasn’t appeared for over 3 million eras. I can’t predict what tricks he might have. If my clone perishes, my treasure will be taken by him! Plus, I’m carrying the token of ‘Zhenchang Valley.'” Zhuohuo hesitated to take the risk.
He was the leader of a powerful race, and the entire race depended on him.
“If your clone perishes, once the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord dies, your treasures will be returned to you,” Meng Yaozu said. “If the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord escapes this calamity, our alliance will compensate you for half of your losses! Hmph, you’re also a renowned Zhuohuo, the Master of Burning Flame. Don’t tell me you can’t even protect your life in front of him?”
“Fine! Since Yaozu has made the promise, I will go and stall him,” Zhuohuo said without further hesitation.
Boom!
He transformed into a streak of light and quickly chased after Luo Feng.
…
The distance between Luo Feng and Zhuohuo wasn’t far, only a few hundred million kilometers.
Luo Feng was flying through space.
“Blood-Cloud Palace Lord, wait a moment,” a powerful voice echoed in Luo Feng’s ears.
“Hmph.”
Luo Feng sneered but continued moving forward.
“Blood-Cloud Palace Lord, I, Zhuohuo, wish to speak with you,” the powerful voice spoke again. Obviously, Zhuohuo didn’t really want to fight Luo Feng. After all, although various factions had deep grudges against Luo Feng, Zhuohuo himself had no major feud with him. If he could stall Luo Feng, that would be a great achievement. And if the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord perished afterward, when it came time to divide the treasures, Zhuohuo would naturally receive his share.
“Zhuohuo! Do you take me for a fool like yourself?” Luo Feng said softly.
“You—”
Zhuohuo was so angered he couldn’t speak for a moment. He couldn’t help but sigh—no wonder the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord had enemies throughout the universe. He was simply too ruthless. They had no personal grudge, yet the moment he spoke, Luo Feng had practically insulted him by calling him a fool. Wasn’t that an insult to a Sovereign of the Universe? If someone else had said such words, Zhuohuo would have roared in fury and challenged them to battle. But since it was the notoriously fearsome Blood-Cloud Palace Lord speaking, his anger quickly subsided.
After all, that was simply the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord’s temperament. Otherwise, how could he have offended all the major powers of the universe?
…
One flew ahead, and the other chased from behind.
“The Blood-Cloud Palace Lord is fleeing at maximum speed. I can’t catch up, so I can only trail him for now,” Zhuohuo followed from a distance while continuously sending messages to Meng Yaozu and Zhen Yaozu.
Moments later.
As Luo Feng flew directly into a vortex passage.
“He has entered the vortex passage. This passage leads to the primitive star numbered 06231,” Zhuohuo immediately reported.
…
The news swiftly spread throughout the Demon Alliance, relayed among super-beings. In an instant, all factions learned that the Lord of the Blood-Cloud Palace had entered the primitive star numbered 06231.
“Star River Sovereign, we are about to arrive at the coordinates of the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord on primitive star 03129.”
“Understood.”
Six Sovereigns of the Universe from the Northern Border Alliance were flying together in the sky above a primitive star, led by the highly esteemed ‘Star River Sovereign.’ Although the Northern Border Alliance had a total of twelve Sovereigns of the Universe participating in this operation, the other six were already on various primitive stars and were en route.
“Stop!” commanded Star River Sovereign.
The other five towering figures halted simultaneously, all turning to face the Star River Sovereign—a towering darkness in the void.
“The Blood-Cloud Palace Lord has left primitive star 03129 and arrived at primitive star 06231 through the vortex passage,” Star River Sovereign announced.
“What do we do now?”
“This complicates things.”
The other five Sovereigns of the Universe all felt uneasy.
“What is the fastest route to reach the vortex passage coordinates of primitive star 06231?” Star River Sovereign ordered.
“By transferring through eight primitive stars, we can minimize our travel time,” one of the Sovereigns immediately responded.
“Then let’s move out.”
Star River Sovereign commanded.
Boom!
The six Sovereigns of the Universe immediately changed direction.
…
The news indeed caused dissatisfaction among many factions hunting the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord, but they were helpless. Each primitive star had a total of 10,081 vortex passages, which posed a major challenge for the pursuit. Perhaps… this was also one of the reasons the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord dared to appear on primitive stars.
…
Zhuohuo’s towering figure also entered the vortex passage and arrived at another primitive star.
As soon as he entered, before he could even control the space and time of this realm to examine it,
“Hmm?”
Zhuohuo was shocked as he gazed into the distance. About a hundred million kilometers away, endless black mist was spreading. Within the black mist, there was a faintly visible ancient palace. In front of the ancient palace stood a figure in the air, appearing hazy and indistinct within the black mist.
“The Blood-Cloud Palace!” Zhuohuo immediately recognized the famous treasure.
The Blood-Cloud Palace was a top-tier ultimate treasure, a flying palace surpassing the Tianlang Palace by an entire level. It was incredibly sturdy—difficult even for the strongest beings in the universe to destroy. Additionally, the Blood-Cloud Palace could emit black mist covering a range of billions of kilometers. With swirling black mist and a towering palace, that was the Blood-Cloud Palace.
Relying on the Blood-Cloud Palace, the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord had repeatedly escaped death.
“This Blood-Cloud Palace Lord hasn’t fled?” Zhuohuo was secretly astonished.
“Hahaha! Zhuohuo, are you afraid?” The black mist suddenly expanded, directly engulfing Zhuohuo, and a voice rang out, “Didn’t you chase me? It’s been so long since I had a fight. Now, I give you this opportunity!”
“Hmph!”
Zhuohuo snorted angrily. This Blood-Cloud Palace Lord didn’t seem to take him seriously at all.
“Haha! Indeed, you’re a coward.” The Blood-Cloud Palace Lord’s voice came again, “Then I won’t keep you company anymore.”
“Blood-Cloud, dare to not run!” Seeing the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord continue to fly away, Zhuohuo roared furiously and transformed into a streak of light, chasing after him.
“Hahaha!”
Boom!
The Blood-Cloud Palace Lord waved his hand, retracting the Blood-Cloud Palace. Holding a long shuttle, he whistled through the air toward Zhuohuo.
“I’ll show you my strength,” Zhuohuo roared, wielding two massive hammers, flames from his nine head tentacles flaring. Luo Feng also flew rapidly toward him, holding the long shuttle. At the same time, he secretly sighed that among the countless races of the universe, especially among some super-beings, many used ‘hammers’ as their weapons.
Hundreds of millions of kilometers separated them, but they flew toward each other and met in no time.
“Blood-Cloud, die!” Zhuohuo roared.
With a swing of his hammer, came a naturally furious roar, as if echoing from ancient times. Zhuohuo had fully mastered the path of the Fire and Space Beast God. With one hammer strike, the surrounding stable space seemed to shatter like glass crushed under a tank.
“Just you?” At this moment, Luo Feng’s height reached over a thousand kilometers, as did Zhuohuo’s.
The long shuttle in Luo Feng’s hand, transformed from the Star Tower through the disguise of the Blood-Cloud Pearl, was over three thousand kilometers long.
“Die!” Luo Feng stared at his opponent from afar, his divine power already burning, continuously pouring into the long shuttle in his hand. Now, the complex secret patterns carved into the Star Tower were only partially understood by Luo Feng—he had only deciphered the first layer. Though he was close to deciphering the second layer, he still fell short, so he had to consume more divine power, and its power wasn’t as strong as when he could fully activate the second layer.
Activating the Star Tower shuttle!
Through the shuttle, he unleashed the Sovereign of the Universe’s ultimate secret technique, “Blood Light,” a newly created ultimate secret technique that was being used in actual combat for the first time.
“Shatter!” Zhuohuo roared.
The divine hammers unleashed boundless power, as if the sky and earth were collapsing…
Suddenly, a dazzling crimson light shuttle flashed by in an instant, terrifyingly fast—so fast that even Zhuohuo’s two divine hammers couldn’t block in time.
“Thud!”
The crimson light shuttle pierced directly into Zhuohuo’s chest.
“Boom!” Zhuohuo gritted his teeth and slammed his divine hammers into the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord.
Boom!
Boom!
Both were sent flying backward.
“How fast! So fast that I couldn’t even block,” Zhuohuo thought. Though he had expected some changes after over 3 million eras without seeing the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord, he hadn’t anticipated that the new ultimate treasure, the ‘long shuttle,’ could be this fast. Although he was somewhat unprepared, it was still incredibly fast.
“Truly worthy of being the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord. Despite my divine body’s massive size, I still suffered nearly 1% damage. His strength is definitely among the peak ranks of the Sovereigns of the Universe,” Zhuohuo thought in astonishment. “Thankfully, this was only once. Next time, I won’t let him directly strike my divine body.”
In general combat,
They would clash weapons… and the residual power after being blocked by weapons would be much weaker. But this time, it was purely an exchange of injuries without weapon blocking. Luo Feng’s shuttle pierced Zhuohuo’s body directly, while Zhuohuo’s heavy hammer struck Luo Feng directly.
“The Jia Armor is indeed powerful, weakening the attack to one ten-thousandth. That hammer strike’s damage to my divine body was almost negligible, recoverable in an instant,” Luo Feng glanced at the shuttle in his hand. “Truly worthy of being an ultimate treasure. I can only activate the first layer to control this ultimate treasure, so I’m only displaying a fraction of its power. Yet it’s already much stronger than my strongest strike against Banfu Sovereign before.”
This battle, Luo Feng was well-prepared.
The Jia Armor was even stronger in defense than the Beast God Armor, so Luo Feng temporarily exchanged with his Earthling self. The ‘Blood-Cloud Palace Lord’ wore the Jia Armor temporarily! Wielding the Star Tower shuttle!
“Blood-Cloud Palace Lord, I admire your strength. But you won’t get another chance,” Zhuohuo roared.
“Hahaha! Big talk is easy for anyone.”
Luo Feng and Zhuohuo clashed again.
Boom!
This time, Zhuohuo defended with all his might. The first divine hammer still couldn’t block, but the second one barely managed to intercept. This allowed Luo Feng to only completely knock Zhuohuo flying.
“The Star Tower’s power is too strong; I’m only utilizing a fraction of it. Back when I fought Banfu Sovereign, even with the microcosm universe power enhancement, I could only suppress him… Now, I’m utterly dominating and crushing Zhuohuo,” Luo Feng fully felt the Star Tower’s might. Each thrust was terrifyingly fast, and each impact sent Zhuohuo flying far away. This complete domination and annihilation brought Luo Feng an unprecedented sense of exhilaration.
Transforming into the Blood-Cloud Palace Lord granted Luo Feng immense freedom.
Now, wielding the Star Tower to crush Sovereigns of the Universe brought him even greater joy.
Luo Feng had only a tiny portion of the second layer’s secret patterns left to decipher. Before coming to the primitive star, he had already mastered the fifth level of the Beast God Path and had deeper insights into the secret pattern art. In this state of mind… during his 35th clash with Zhuohuo, he suddenly and unknowingly fully activated the second layer’s secret patterns in an instant.
