Inside the second level of the Wuqi Tower lay a vast world. On the dark red ground, streams of heat surged into the sky, so intense that even a neutron star from the cosmic sea would likely be burned into nothingness.
This world was divided into five regions, each a small independent world.
“Roar! Roar! Roar!” Five dark red rock giants, savage and brutal, charged wildly, battering five soldiers into a desperate state.
In the distance, Luo Feng and the other four soldiers stood silently watching. The other four soldiers’ eyes showed concern.
“The rock giants cannot be killed; we must try our best to buy time,” each of the four soldiers was thinking about how to respond. They had just survived the first level’s battle, unlike the first five soldiers who had rested for a longer period. Therefore, they were taking a brief rest here while also getting an early view of the second level’s dangers.
This was a form of compensation.
After the first group of five soldiers struggled for about half an hour,
“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Space-time around Luo Feng and his group of five soldiers trembled, and they were quickly teleported away.
…
Luo Feng felt the space-time twist around him, as if entering a wormhole. When the space-time stabilized, he had already entered one of the small worlds.
“The teleportation gives us only a short rest time. However, it allows us to learn about the danger in advance, which is actually fair,” Luo Feng raised his head to look at the sky.
A massive ancient rune diagram emerged from the dark clouds above, dazzling and mysterious, covering the entire small world.
Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng!
The ancient rune diagram seemed to possess countless gun barrels like a massive warship, spewing countless beams of light downward. Each beam was as powerful as a blow from a True God! Fortunately, this was merely a trial, so the beams were spread out across the entire area. If they were concentrated together, an attack combining billions of beams might even daunt an Eternal True God.
From this, one could see how extraordinary the ‘Wuqi Tower’ left behind by the King of Gods truly was.
“Hmm?” Luo Feng looked up at the sky, and instantly unsheathed his ‘Blood Shadow Blade,’ which resembled a stone knife on his back.
Dang!
The Blood Shadow Blade blocked an incoming beam, and Luo Feng was forced backward six steps, leaving six footprints in the ground.
Shortly after—
“I’ve blocked nine beams in a row, each of different colors, but all of the same power,” Luo Feng made an accurate judgment. He glanced at the ancient rune diagram in the sky, smiled, and then looked down at the ground. “Rock giant… hurry up and appear. Otherwise, dealing with this ancient rune diagram will consume a lot of divine power.”
“Golden Clawed God!” Luo Feng willed it.
Boom!
Luo Feng’s body transformed instantly. As a mechanical stream artifact, the Golden Clawed God could change its surface color at will. In an instant, Luo Feng transformed into a black humanoid monster, his divine power igniting the Golden Clawed God… instantly boosting his speed, defense, resistance, and attack power by two levels.
Luo Feng didn’t want to use the ‘Annihilation’ technique. Once used, it would consume too much divine power too quickly.
In this situation, his current state was sufficient to handle the crisis.
“Rumble~” The ground trembled, and Luo Feng immediately ascended into the air to survey below.
From the deep cracks in the ground, scorching red liquid surged out, gushing violently. A large amount of red liquid quickly gathered and coalesced into a massive liquid monster. Then, the red liquid rapidly solidified into a dark red rock giant! More red liquid continued to surge from the ground, constantly replenishing the rock giant.
“Roar~~~” The dark red rock giant raised its head and roared, then charged directly toward Luo Feng.
“Good timing,” Luo Feng smiled slightly.
He pushed off the ground with his foot, leaving a massive claw mark on the scorching earth. The Golden Clawed God Luo Feng soared toward the dark red rock giant. In terms of size, the Golden Clawed God Luo Feng maintained a height of one hundred thousand kilometers, his optimal state for maximum power. The dark red rock giant, however, was nearly two hundred thousand kilometers tall, with Luo Feng only reaching its waist.
“Boom!” The dark red rock giant roared, then threw a mountain-sized fist that flashed toward Luo Feng.
Swish!
Luo Feng’s figure flickered, seemingly dodging.
The rock giant’s fist followed instantly, chasing Luo Feng relentlessly. This punch seemed to cover the sky and block any escape.
“His Majesty the King of Gods built the Wuqi Tower. Even a puppet formed from energy has such exquisite boxing skills,” Luo Feng mused. The Golden Clawed God Luo Feng moved like a giant blade shadow, changing direction three times in an instant.
Changing direction three times might seem minimal.
However, true mastery of movement isn’t about changing direction many times but rather changing direction just once to evade the opponent’s attack. That is true skill! In Jiuyan Marsh, Luo Feng had easily dodged attacks from True Gods. But against this dark red rock giant, he had to change direction three times to evade this single punch.
“Whoosh!”
While dodging, the Golden Clawed God Luo Feng deliberately grazed the rock giant’s arm, causing it to wobble slightly.
Taking advantage of this, the Golden Clawed God Luo Feng darted to the rock giant’s side.
“Boom!” The ancient rune diagram above unleashed countless beams of light, many striking the rock giant, but none touched Luo Feng.
“Roar~~~” The rock giant turned to attack Luo Feng.
“Once I get close to you, just be a shield for me,” the Golden Clawed God Luo Feng moved like a ghost, each movement appearing as a straight line, yet changing direction several times in a flash, making the dark red rock giant spin helplessly. The rock giant roared, turning suddenly or sweeping its fist to attack in all directions! Even its fist transformed into red liquid, covering Luo Feng.
It tried every method.
But the Golden Clawed God Luo Feng kept circling around the rock giant, using it as a shield. The beams raining down from the sky no longer touched the Golden Clawed God Luo Feng.
The Golden Clawed God Luo Feng preferred occasional confrontations with the rock giant rather than being hit by the beams even once.
“For me,”
“The rock giant is not a trouble but a great help. With it, it’s like having a massive shield. Using this shield… I can easily evade all the beam attacks.”
Luo Feng fully displayed his terrifying movement techniques, dodging whenever possible, using the rock giant as a shield, and only occasionally blocking when necessary.
Luo Feng never engaged the rock giant in direct combat!
Because he knew… even if he did, the rock giant would quickly recover from any injuries. It was practically immortal. Engaging in direct combat would only accelerate his divine power consumption.
Moreover, without using the ‘Annihilation’ technique and focusing mainly on evasion, with the rock giant shielding him from the beams above, Luo Feng’s divine power consumption was extremely low…
…
In the third level of the silver-gray palace beside the Wuqi Tower in the King of Gods Valley.
Inside the grand hall.
Floating screens displayed the battle scenes from the ten small worlds, clearly showing the situations of the ten soldiers.
On the four thrones above the hall, the huge black mist on the leftmost throne suddenly vibrated.
“Movement technique…” a voice emerged from the black mist.
Whoosh!
The screen, originally showing ten small worlds, instantly reduced the other nine to small windows while one expanded, occupying ninety percent of the screen. In that small world, Luo Feng was fighting the dark red rock giant!
“This movement technique…”
“So… so…”
The Black Mist Commander seemed completely astonished. As one of the four commanders of the King of Gods Valley, having witnessed countless elite soldiers through generations of Wuqi Tower trials, this was the first time he had seen such a terrifying movement technique!
Although this movement technique was extraordinary, it didn’t necessarily mean the other aspects were equally impressive. However, being able to reach such a level in movement technique indicated that this soldier’s other abilities, even if slightly inferior, were likely far superior to many elite soldiers.
“Why didn’t the four generals tell me about this soldier?”
“This soldier is definitely one of the most important seeds, the kind His Majesty the King of Gods needs most. Yet this soldier wasn’t on the list given to me.” The Black Mist Commander’s voice was filled with anger. His purpose in the King of Gods Valley across endless eons was to find the peerless individual sought by the King of Gods.
“Soldier He Feng?”
“Snake River Army?”
“Oh… he’s newly joined the army. No wonder the four generals didn’t tell me. He joined the army and immediately undertook the title mission, showing absolute confidence. He Feng? He Feng?” The Black Mist Commander’s voice carried a hint of joy, “You three, wake up, come quickly!!!”
The voice rumbled, echoing throughout the silver palace, directly reaching the depths beneath the silver-gray palace.
There, the other three commanders were sleeping.
In the King of Gods Valley, there were no other matters, so the four commanders took turns managing the overall affairs of the King of Gods Valley and the entire ‘King of Gods Realm.’ They would only gather the other three commanders when encountering special circumstances.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Three powerful presences surged upward, causing the True God guards within the King of Gods Valley to be startled.
…
In the third level of the silver-gray hall, on the four thrones above, besides the black mist on the leftmost throne, the second throne on the left was occupied by a beautiful woman wearing silver armor. Her eyes seemed to be the source of all light; being looked at by her felt like being bathed in the warmest light, involuntarily entering a world of light.
Beside her sat a tall, muscular commander clad in crimson armor. This commander wore a battle helmet adorned with nine silver horns resembling crescent blades, radiating an aura of overwhelming dominance.
On the far right, coiled a massive black-scaled beast with two faces, each possessing a single eye. One eye was open, while the eye at the back of its head was closed. The open eye was pitch black, as if capable of devouring everything… radiating an endless, intense killing aura.
“You three, quickly look, look at that soldier controlling the Golden Clawed God,” a voice emerged from the black mist.
