Chapter 1202: Surrender the Treasure

Hearing that the battle outside might involve the Axe Creator, Luo Feng could no longer remain calm.

“Teacher, let’s leave immediately,” Luo Feng urged, simultaneously turning his head sideways. Wisps of hazy divine power flew out from his divine body and condensed nearby into a human form—an avatar.

The “Divine Avatar” technique could be easily used by Cosmic-level Elders.

However, Immortal Beings found it very difficult to use this technique. Their divine power was weak. If they allocated only a small amount of divine power, they couldn’t even maintain basic consciousness. Allocating more, say 50% of their divine body, would result in a very weak combat capability for the split body. This made the Divine Avatar technique rarely seen among Immortal Beings.

But for Cosmic-level Elders, it was much easier.

For example, when the Origin Star opened, many Cosmic-level Elders from the Hong Alliance entered it, and many left avatars behind.

“Alright!”

“We’ll depart immediately,” Kandri agreed without hesitation.

Just a few seconds later,

A towering azure mountain floated upward, flying directly to a higher altitude. Then Kandri activated a massive secret rune array, triggering the hidden space, and they were instantly teleported out.

The hidden space

was left with only a lake, an island, and a divine avatar.

…

Over the endless icy plains, the azure mountain reappeared.

Swoosh!

The azure mountain rapidly flew into the distance at high speed, completely ignoring any danger.

“Compared to other places in the Abyss, that hidden space was like a paradise,” Luo Feng marveled. “No danger, very peaceful. No wonder that ancient supreme being lived there. And the method of entering and exiting is quite sophisticated. Even after watching my teacher perform it, I still can’t learn how to do it myself.”

“You’ll be able to learn it once you become a Peak Cosmic-level Elder,” Kandri glanced at Luo Feng. “By the way, let me remind you—keep your divine avatar there and let it focus on cultivation and comprehension. Don’t suddenly dissolve your divine avatar. I won’t have time to bring you back in again.”

“Got it, got it,” Luo Feng smiled.

Thanks to his mastery of the secret rune arrays, he might be able to contend with Cosmic Sovereigns. But compared to Peak Cosmic Elders and even the ancient, long-extinct beings who were even more terrifying than them, he was still too inexperienced. Since this time he had the chance to study that ancient being’s ultimate supreme technique, he naturally wouldn’t give up easily.

“Anyway, it’s just a divine avatar. At worst, it can just live there permanently,” Luo Feng’s eyes gleamed with excitement. “No matter what, I must study it thoroughly. My secret techniques rely entirely on it.”

Flash! Flash! Flash!

As they talked, the mountain’s speed kept increasing, already surpassing a hundred times the speed of light and continuing to accelerate.

“Wow,” Luo Feng noticed the mountain’s incredible speed.

“Teacher, you’re moving at such an ultra-high speed, breaking the operational laws of the principles. The fluctuations might be detected by the battling Peak Cosmic Elders,” Luo Feng couldn’t help but say. Sitting calmly, Kandri poured himself a glass of fruit wine, “Should I fly there slowly? By the time you arrive, the battle will already be over!”

“But…” Luo Feng was momentarily speechless.

A hundred times the speed of light would still take several days to travel.

Several days?

Clashes between mighty entities were typically brief. Even the most ferocious duels among Peak Cosmic Elders rarely exceeded half an hour—unless it involved pursuit. Some formidable beings could engage in chases spanning thousands or even millions of years. However, direct confrontations were usually resolved with remarkable speed.

Too slow, they’d arrive too late. Too fast, they’d be detected.

“So what if we’re detected?” Kandri took a sip of wine and praised, “Come, come, this wine is great. A friend from the Second Cycle Era gave it to me when I helped him forge a treasure. Try it.”

Luo Feng smiled helplessly. If his teacher wasn’t afraid, why should he worry?

“Wine given to you during the forging of a treasure? I must try it,” Luo Feng stepped forward.

…

The speed of the mountain continued to rise—thousandfold, ten-thousandfold, hundred-thousandfold the speed of light… It surged forward with unstoppable might, leaving a trail of overwhelming power.

Luo Feng had only taken a couple of sips.

Then, “Boom~~” a faint tremor caused Luo Feng’s expression to change slightly.

“We’re here,” Kandri stood up, then swept his right hand. The surroundings turned transparent, and the entire mountain no longer obstructed their vision.

Looking outside, Luo Feng saw a dazzling brilliance in the distance. The surrounding gales had long dissipated, and the scorching lava streams had stopped flowing. Before the battle of the Peak Cosmic Elders, these loosely gathered Cosmic Vessels naturally carried insufficient energy and were clearly at a disadvantage. The powerful fluctuations made Luo Feng shudder.

“I only felt the tremor when we arrived here, but my teacher sensed it back in the hidden space,” Luo Feng realized how vast the gap was between himself and the Peak Cosmic Elders.

He stopped thinking further and focused his gaze outward, trying to see clearly whether the Axe Creator was among the distant combatants.

“Ah?” Kandri was surprised. “One side in the battle is indeed the God-Eye Race—the Third Sovereign and the Sixth Sovereign. But the other side… it’s actually Jinhuang!”

“Jinhuang?”

Luo Feng had heard of him before.

Jinhuang, a Peak Cosmic-level Elder, bore the title of “Jinhuang Demon God,” also known as the “Jinhuang Child.” Originally a warrior from the Mosha Clan—one of the seven supreme races of the Second Cycle Era—he had undergone a special transformation that changed his life. He now resembled a demonic child sculpted from gold, with thirteen pairs of arms. He could split into thirteen separate bodies. Although the Mosha Clan had only one Peak Cosmic-level Elder, thanks to the might of the Jinhuang Demon God, they still ranked among the supreme races of the Second Cycle Era.

“It’s Jinhuang?” Luo Feng exhaled in relief. “Good. The one fighting the God-Eye Race isn’t the Axe Creator.”

If the Axe Creator had been drawn into a battle with the God-Eye Race because of him, it would be a problem. Winning would be fine, but if the Axe Creator got injured, it would be concerning.

Luo Feng focused his gaze.

In the distance…

Space and time twisted. Within that warped realm, countless meteors streaked across brilliantly. At the center was a massive bizarre beast, towering and immense, resembling an octopus with thirteen tentacles. Looking closely, one could see that the entire body of the beast was constructed entirely from weapons.

The thirteen tentacles swept through the void, annihilating everything.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Countless brilliant meteors slammed into the beast. The thirteen tentacles of the beast lashed out wildly, swatting away meteor after meteor.

And there were two dazzling emerald beams. These emerald beams, hundreds of thousands of kilometers long, were incredibly sharp. Side by side, they repeatedly slashed through the warped space, aiming at the beast.

“Jinhuang Demon God,” Luo Feng murmured softly. “The Third Sovereign and the Sixth Sovereign.”

These legendary figures each had their signature treasures.

The Jinhuang Demon God was currently using the “Jinhuang Beast,” a treasure second only to the supreme treasures, comparable to the Mad God Annihilation Armor. However, clearly, when used by the Jinhuang Demon God, its power was vastly different from when Wuhun Sovereign wielded the Extinction Divine Armor.

The Third Sovereign, known as the Star Sovereign, was wielding the endless meteors, a domain-type supreme treasure known as the “Star Kingdom.”

The Sixth Sovereign, known as the Emerald Eye Sovereign, was wielding the two emerald beams, which were actually a bizarre soul-attacking supreme treasure known as the “Emerald Eye Light.”

“Teacher, how is it that the Jinhuang Demon God, not wielding a supreme treasure, can withstand the Third Sovereign and the Sixth Sovereign?” Luo Feng asked.

“No,” Kandri shook his head and smiled. “First, although Jinhuang seems to be using only the ‘Jinhuang Beast,’ there’s actually a palace-type supreme treasure within the Jinhuang Beast’s body. That’s why Jinhuang can easily endure.”

“The Third Sovereign and the Sixth Sovereign aren’t using their full strength either.”

“The Star Kingdom is merely a domain-type supreme treasure, and the Star Sovereign is just casually launching star attacks. The main attacker is actually the Sixth Sovereign,” Kandri explained. “And you should know, the Third Sovereign possesses two supreme treasures.”

Luo Feng nodded.

Indeed.

Among the three Peak Cosmic-level Elders present—the Jinhuang Demon God, the Sixth Sovereign—they each possessed one supreme treasure. But the Third Sovereign had two supreme treasures! This made Luo Feng sigh. In the Primordial Universe, there were still Peak Cosmic-level Elders who didn’t possess supreme treasures. However, the Cosmic Elders from the earlier eras—the First Cycle and Second Cycle Eras—who had lived longer…

They had a higher chance of obtaining supreme treasures.

“Because the two of them know that Jinhuang has a palace-type supreme treasure on his person, even if they keep attacking, they can’t defeat him. So they haven’t used their full strength,” Kandri explained. “Jinhuang, unwilling to be bullied, is merely using the Jinhuang Beast to resist… But strangely, why don’t the two God-Eye Sovereigns give up, when they clearly know that Jinhuang has a palace-type supreme treasure and can’t be killed?”

“They’re probably communicating telepathically,” Kandri said. “Let me investigate.”

Boom!

A hazy black light radiated outward from the azure mountain, quickly spreading into the battlefield.

“Zuoshanke! If you’re just here to observe the battle, then observe. Why are you interfering?” A cold, furious roar sounded. Under Kandri’s guidance, Luo Feng could also sense this voice through divine power.

“Zuoshanke, are you going to join the fight?” Another voice mocked.

“Sixth Sovereign, I’m just curious. Why are you two attacking Jinhuang? You know Jinhuang has that palace-type supreme treasure. You can’t defeat him, so why not give up?” Kandri laughed heartily. “As for the Third Sovereign asking if I’ll join the battle, I don’t like fighting. Watching from the sidelines is just fine. You still haven’t explained why you’re so persistent?”

“Hmph! This Jinhuang has taken the Extinction Divine Armor and the Silver Wings. Without him handing over those two treasures, how can we let him leave?”

“Exactly! We may not be able to defeat him, but two other Sovereigns from our God-Eye Race are on their way. Even with the protection of a palace-type supreme treasure, the four of us together will be able to seal and suppress him!”

“Emerald Eye! Star!” A high-pitched voice came, “You two are going too far. First, the Extinction Divine Armor and the Silver Wings were left behind in the Abyss. Even if I obtained them, what of it? Second, you two were so arrogant before, blocking my path and questioning me. I found it very annoying, so I said I had obtained them. But in reality, I truly didn’t get the Extinction Divine Armor, nor did I obtain the Silver Wings. You two just refuse to believe me!”

“Do you think we’d believe you?” The Sixth Sovereign roared in anger.

“I’m here. Could I be the only one who obtained them? Zuoshanke is also here. Perhaps he obtained them too,” the high-pitched voice said.

“If I said I obtained them, would you two believe me?” Kandri teased.
