Chapter 1147: Jiuyou · The Sea Eye

“From the side of the Ancestral God Sect?” Luo Feng sensed the underlying implication and couldn’t help but ask, “Lord Jiuyou, does this mean that the Ancestral God Sect isn’t the only one coming here this time?”

“That’s right.”

Lord Jiuyou nodded.

“Not only the Ancestral God Sect, but every superpower in the universe with a Cosmic Sovereign stationed will likely send a Cosmic Overlord here,” said Lord Yunan beside him, his pair of bone wings spread wide while his voice remained gentle. “This includes the Northern Border Alliance, the Starry Sky Giant Beast Alliance, the Demon Race, the Machine Race, the Insect Race, the Crystal Race, the Hell Race, the Human Race, and others.”

Lord Anman’s voice was hoarse, “We have you, the Lord of the Milky Way, leading us and using divine nation teleportation, so we arrived the fastest. Other forces will need some time since this is the territory of Lord Yuan’ao, and probably not many have left tokens here.”

“How would they know to come here?” Luo Feng couldn’t help asking.

“Because they know about the Oddity,” Lord Yunan replied.

“How did they find out?”

Here is the English translation:

“A Wonder is a special item that can only originate from one of the three forbidden zones of the Cosmic Sea. Each of them appears to exist naturally, like a tree or a vine… in short, they seem to have grown on their own, and each possesses tremendous power. They are the closest things to Supreme Treasures. However, Wonders differ from Supreme Treasures in another aspect… to unleash the full power of a Supreme Treasure, one must study and comprehend its mysteries. If its potential has not been fully mastered, its power will not reach the ultimate limit.”

Luo Feng nodded.

The Starry Tower, for example, he could only activate the second layer. But even with just the second layer activated, its power was already incredibly extraordinary.

“But curios are different.”

“Oddities have no inscriptions or carvings, so any powerful being who wields one can directly unleash its maximum power,” Lord Yunan explained gently. “If an ultimate treasure hasn’t been fully harnessed, its power might be comparable to an Oddity. Only when an ultimate treasure’s full power is unleashed does it surpass an Oddity. So you can imagine how precious Oddities are.”

Luo Feng nodded inwardly.

Even the Dual Ancestral Gods wielding supreme peak treasures, or the Milky Way Lord with his twin maces, paled in comparison to this marvel. Even the second layer of the Starry Tower that Luo Feng could activate seemed on par with the Black Divine Tree. And the Black Divine Tree could be instantly deployed at full power. Who wouldn’t covet such a treasure?

(Note: I made the following adjustments for natural English flow while preserving meaning:

“Even the Dual Ancestral Gods”

(Note: I maintained the original formatting and numbering style while translating the content. The translation assumes “祖神” refers to a divine title, hence rendered as “Ancestral Gods” with capitalization to indicate its status as a proper noun. The word “Even” is retained as it appears to be part of the original term’s structure.)

2. “using peak ultimate treasures” → “wielding supreme peak treasures” (more natural collocation)

3. “Lord of the Milky Way” → “Milky Way Lord” (more title-like)

4. “dual maces” → “twin maces” (more idiomatic for weapons)

5. “were inferior to the qiwu” → “paled in comparison to this marvel” (the term qiwu is translated contextually)

6. “Starry Tower Luo Feng could activate” → “Starry Tower that Luo Feng could activate” (grammatical clarity)

7. “black divine tree” → capitalized as “Black Divine Tree” (treating as a proper noun)

8. “used immediately to unleash maximum power” → “instantly deployed at full power” (more concise)

9. “Who wouldn’t want” → “Who wouldn’t covet” (stronger verb for treasure context))

“However, peculiar objects have a major drawback,” Lord Yunan sighed. “They are naturally rejected by the universe! Whether it’s the core and largest Original Universe or various small universes, all reject peculiar objects. Once a peculiar object enters a universe, it affects the stability of the universe’s foundation. It seems that peculiar objects and the universe’s foundation are natural enemies!”

Luo Feng suddenly understood.

Natural enemies?

No wonder! No wonder the Ancestral God said something harmful to the Original Universe was happening here.

“Unfortunately, Lord Yuan’ao is merely a solitary wanderer. While solitude grants freedom, it also means no one shares secrets with him. Moreover, rare artifacts seldom emerge. Even I only recently learned of these secrets from the Ancestral God,” Lord Yunan said with a smile. “Lord Yuan’ao remains unaware that the black divine tree is rejected by the Primordial Universe, which is why he retrieved it. Had he not activated it, all would have been well. But the moment he wielded it, the divine tree’s power instantly clashed with the universe’s foundation. Ordinary cultivators might not have detected it, but the Cosmic Sovereigns could distinctly sense the presence of this extraordinary artifact.”

Luo Feng nodded.

“Although the black divine tree can’t be brought back to the Original Universe, bringing it back is a crime! However, most super cultivators usually wander in the Cosmic Sea, so they can keep the black divine tree in the Cosmic Sea and guard it themselves. This alone makes it a ‘sub-ultimate treasure,’ so how could the various factions not go crazy over it? If the Cosmic Sovereigns didn’t know that the other factions were also aware, they probably wouldn’t have sent Cosmic Overlords but would have come themselves.”

Luo Feng completely understood; everything was like this.

“Yuan’ao must have retrieved the Artifact long ago,” Lord Jiuyou said slowly. “Since Artifacts are rejected by the Original Universe, they gradually merge part of their aura into the bearer, causing the Original Universe to begin rejecting them as well. Therefore, this time… we must also eliminate Lord Yuan’ao.”

Luo Feng was secretly shocked, “Its aura blending into him?”

“Oddities are very special, very sinister, and very powerful,” Lord Jiuyou said. “Not many cultivators can resist their temptation.”

“A sub-ultimate treasure, who could resist its temptation?” Lords Yunan and Anman also sighed.

Luo Feng nodded.

The ultimate treasures are exceedingly rare. At least in the Original Universe, no Cosmic Overlord has ever been recorded to possess one. Even the Lord of Chaos, the Lord of the Milky Way, or even the founding figures like the Great Axe—none of them have ultimate treasures! Who wouldn’t desire a wondrous artifact, slightly inferior to an ultimate treasure?

(Note: “奇物” is retained in pinyin as it appears to be a proper noun or a specific term within the context. If it refers to a known concept like “artifact” or “wondrous item,” it can be translated accordingly.)

“It holds no temptation for me,” Lord Jiuyou shook his head with a smile. “In every battle, my clones are always ready for annihilation. I would never carry important treasures.”

Luo Feng couldn’t help but smile.

“Let’s go. Our Ancestral God Sect is the fastest. Even the fastest-arriving forces from other factions will probably take at least half a day to get here. In the meantime, I’ll go deal with Lord Yuan’ao first. I want to see just how powerful he can be with the artifact,” Lord Jiuyou said directly.

“Let’s go.”

“Alright.”

“I’ve never seen Lord Jiuyou in action before,” Luo Feng smiled.

Whoosh!

Instantly, the four supreme beings of the Ancestral God Sect vanished from this vast expanse of void.

In the void, the four figures spread out, gazing from a distance at the massive twelve floating continents.

“How do we get that guy to come over?” Lord Yunan asked. The simplest method would be to launch a long-range divine power attack that explodes on one of the continents, naturally provoking Yuan’ao’s anger and drawing him out. However, Lords Yunan and the others all held high status and wouldn’t do such a thing unless ordinary lives had provoked them.

“I’ll handle it,” Luo Feng said, drawing glances from Lords Jiuyou, Yunan, and Anman.

“Whoosh!”

Luo Feng spread his four wings.

An endless golden light suddenly spread outward, directly forming a vast, hazy golden space with a radius of 18 light-years. This was the ‘Golden Kingdom,’ completely enveloping the twelve continents. This move immediately drew astonished looks from Lords Jiuyou and others. Such an enormous range? Even the best domain-type ultimate treasures couldn’t cover such a large area. Instantly, none of them dared to underestimate this human named Luo Feng.

“Yuan’ao!” Luo Feng shouted fiercely.

“Yuan’ao!” “Yuan’ao!” “Yuan’ao!” “Yuan’ao!” “Yuan’ao!” “Yuan’ao!” …

Luo Feng’s voice passed through the Golden Kingdom, instantly echoing in every inch of space across the twelve continents. The sound caused countless beings on the twelve continents to feel terrified and uneasy.

“Human Luo Feng!!!”

A furious roar arose.

A dazzling stream of flame erupted from one of the landmasses, then instantly teleported into the void, appearing merely a million kilometers away from Luo Feng and his companions.

“You fled in disgrace before, and now you dare to come back?” The towering Yuan’ao, with his single eye full of madness, swept his gaze and sneered, “No wonder this cowardly Lord of the Milky Way dares to come, he’s brought help. Let me see who these are? Two little ones, and… isn’t this Lord Jiuyou? The famous Lord Jiuyou, the mighty Lord Jiuyou. Jiuyou, what, are you planning to team up with these three little fellows to attack me? I don’t care at all.”

Lord Jiuyou looked at him, “Rest assured, I alone am enough.”

“I admit you’re a madman, with an inexhaustible divine form. I’d rather confront the Lord of the Milky Way or the Lord of Chaos than you. Without those strange artifacts, I’d steer clear of you if we ever crossed paths. But now… I’m not afraid of you,” Yuan’ao chuckled. “I’m not even afraid of the Cosmic Sovereigns.”

“Is that so?”

Lord Jiuyou moved, instantly sealing the surrounding space completely.

“Come on.” Yuan’ao also summoned the black divine tree radiating endless power, his single eye full of confidence and madness.

Luo Feng, Lord Yunan, and Lord Anman watched from afar.

As Lord Jiuyou dashed toward Yuan’ao, he suddenly let out a sharp roar. Swish, swish, swish~~~ Suddenly, Lord Jiuyou transformed into an endless sea, the sea surging with waves thousands of kilometers high, directly crashing toward Yuan’ao. Yuan’ao also wildly unleashed his ultimate secret art, ‘Burning Destruction.’

Boom~~~

The sea surged, forming a massive whirlpool that completely engulfed Yuan’ao.

“Jiuyou, Sea Eye,” Lord Yunan couldn’t help exclaiming.

Luo Feng held his breath.

‘Jiuyou, Sea Eye’ was a legendary ultimate move, one that only Lord Jiuyou could perform.

“Boom~~~” The endless sea completely formed a huge whirlpool. Then, suddenly, it first expanded violently, followed by a contraction as violent as a star exploding and then collapsing into a neutron star. The massive whirlpool expanded and then violently contracted, unleashing an explosion of divine power at that moment!

The power erupted instantly! This was a terrifying move at the cost of self-destruction.

Luo Feng also knew this move.

Microcosm Universe: Cosmic Annihilation!

Of course, Luo Feng’s was granted by his innate secret art, while Lord Jiuyou created this move ‘Jiuyou·Sea Eye’ based on his own nature of the Jiuyou Sea.

“Bang, bang, bang~~~”

The endless whirlpool sea violently exploded and instantly contracted to the size of an ordinary Earthling’s fist, then completely annihilated and dissipated, revealing the very battered Yuan’ao, now only fist-sized. The power generated by the previous violent contraction had already turned the surrounding space into a scorching stream of particles, countless streams like soup boiling in a pot…

Everything dissipated.

The shrunken Yuan’ao, now fist-sized, suddenly expanded again.

Luo Feng secretly looked forward to the day when he became a Cosmic Overlord, his ‘Oceanic Clone’ would also be able to unleash an attack of the same power!
