Chapter 1456: Golden Sea Pearl

As Luo Feng drew closer, the giant rock transformed back into him, clad in silver armor, with five pairs of radiant wings behind him. At this moment, Luo Feng’s eyes were infinitely cold—he had only one goal: to kill the World Beast Beidi, a resolve that could not be shaken by anyone!

Beidi, the World Beast, was the strongest among them.

Killing it would significantly delay the World Beasts’ ability to produce a sixth-stage existence, effectively giving all the races of the Cosmic Sea more time to prepare.

“Beidi must die!” At this moment, Luo Feng’s mind was filled with only this single thought: to kill Beidi!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

After over a hundred long-range teleportations, Luo Feng finally sensed a faint ripple in the distance. “There it is!” Luo Feng immediately teleported toward the disturbance, then instantly cast the ‘Spatial Solidification Technique,’ preventing the target from escaping through teleportation.

Just having ascended to the fifth stage, World Beast Beidi was in high spirits, preparing to deal with other fourth-stage World Beasts. It had even deliberately maintained the same teleportation range as when it was at the fourth stage.

“Hmm?” Beidi instantly sensed a disturbance.

Immediately, the surrounding space solidified.

It hadn’t detected any presence of a World Beast, so the approaching enemy must be from one of the Cosmic Sea races. Could a Cosmic Sea expert really infiltrate the heart of the Dark Lands unnoticed and come directly for him?

Was it really that coincidental?

The Dark Lands housed nearly a million World Beasts, all possessing the ability to cause disorientation. The odds of someone evading detection by all of them and happening upon Beidi were practically negligible.

“It must be Lord Luo Feng of the Milky Way, the only one who, having enslaved Moros, could know the location of every World Beast in the Dark Lands.” Beidi quickly deduced.

“Who is it?” Beidi knew teleportation was no longer an option. He let out a low, angry growl but remained calm, turning both of his heads toward the source of the disturbance.

In the distance,

A silver-armored human stood in the void, his five pairs of silver wings fully unfurled behind him. His eyes were cold as he stared at Beidi, like a wolf eyeing a sheep.

“You are the Cosmic Sea’s strongest warrior, Lord Luo Feng of the Milky Way?” Beidi asked coldly, though inwardly he was confident. He had already ascended to the fifth stage, and had begun to grasp part of the Destruction Origin, experiencing a fundamental leap in power. His earlier shorter teleportation range had merely been a ruse to mimic a fourth-stage being.

In the World Beast evolution system, fifth-stage power was nearly at the peak.

The advantage of sixth-stage over fifth-stage was mainly in the ability to split into thousands of clones and sustain prolonged battles. Otherwise, the differences were minimal.

“Beidi?” Luo Feng spoke.

“You know me?” Beidi’s two solitary eyes glowed with a sinister light. “I suppose Moros told you. You’ve infiltrated the Dark Lands unnoticed, undetected by any World Beast. You’re truly impressive… I didn’t sense you until you revealed yourself. So your target was me all along.”

“Correct.” Luo Feng nodded.

Though their exchange seemed cold and brief,

Luo Feng was carefully observing Beidi. This World Beast showed no sign of panic. Its calmness and indifference surprised and alerted him. Moros had transmitted a great deal of information to every World Beast before being enslaved. Clearly, a fourth-stage World Beast would be helpless against Luo Feng, either panicking or fighting desperately.

Yet, Beidi’s calmness was strange.

“I was thinking of killing you in the future. Since you’ve come to me, then—” Beidi’s solitary eyes gleamed with madness.

“It is I who will kill you!” Luo Feng roared.

Boom!

The five pairs of wings on Luo Feng’s back suddenly expanded, and his divine power, burning at its peak, surged into the Shiwu Wings. He unleashed the first three volumes of “Duanmie.” Even within the inheritance of the Jin World, burning three layers at the True God stage was already the limit. Luo Feng’s divine power rapidly activated the third secret pattern of the Shiwu Wings.

Instantly, an area spanning several light-years was shrouded in a dense mist.

One Thought Void!

Powerful binding forces wildly ensnared Beidi, prompting it to laugh loudly: “Haha, is this the same move that forced Moros to use the World Light Passage? This technique might be decent against third-stage World Beasts, but for me, hahaha… it’s nothing but a joke!”

Buzz~~~ A hazy glow spread outward, aggressively eroding the One Thought Void area. Its strength even slightly surpassed the One Thought Void. It kept expanding, while the space controlled by One Thought Void kept shrinking.

“Hmm?” Luo Feng’s expression changed. “Why is the World Light Domain so strong? Logically, the World Light Domain of a fourth-stage World Beast should be roughly equal to my One Thought Void. Could Beidi really have ascended to the fifth stage?”

The same World Light Domain,

When used by fifth-stage and fourth-stage World Beasts, produced vastly different effects.

Because the power of the ‘World’ domain depended on the ‘World’ itself, and clearly, a fifth-stage World Beast’s ‘World’ was superior.

“Indeed, Beidi has ascended to the fifth stage,” Luo Feng’s voice was cold, yet it spread across several light-years.

“Haha, no wonder you’re the strongest in the Cosmic Sea, to figure out my ascension so quickly,” Beidi laughed wildly. Though his eyes were filled with madness, there was a coldness within. Luo Feng had learned from Moros that Beidi was inherently cold and ruthless.

“I have indeed ascended to the fifth stage, and you come right to me—what a fool you are! Your space-time techniques are no match for my World Light Domain. You’ve come here to die—”

Suddenly, Beidi paused.

Because from Luo Feng’s palm flew a dazzling crystal bead, radiating golden light.

This golden bead hovered above Luo Feng’s head. As his divine power, burning at its peak, continuously poured into it, it was transformed by the golden bead into endless golden waves, splashing and surging across several light-years.

The golden waves combined with the One Thought Void, amplifying their power, instantly suppressing the World Light Domain and forcing it to retreat.

This golden bead was named ‘Golden Sea Pearl,’ a very precious treasure Luo Feng had brought back from the Jin World. It was a divine artifact of the Machine Stream at the Void God level, albeit a common one that any ordinary Void God could use. After all, the peak of self-created secret techniques for ordinary gods was only at the ninth tier.

Luo Feng had long surpassed this limit while comprehending the Chaos Transformation.

In terms of cultivation level, he was fully capable of matching an ordinary Void God!

Thus, he could activate the Golden Sea Pearl. In fact, within the Jin World, treasures Luo Feng exchanged for could be resold to the military equipment world at the same price. Therefore, Luo Feng had collected a large number of treasures to test whether he could activate them—if they proved too difficult, he could simply return them.

Take the Wuqi Divine Treasure, for example. It was a top-tier artifact of the Machine Stream for True Gods, divided into three levels, with the third level being especially difficult to activate—more challenging than many Void God-level Machine Stream artifacts!

“The third level of the Shiwu Wings, though containing profound secret techniques, is relatively simple,” Luo Feng mused. “I could activate it even at the Cosmic Lord stage, and ordinary True Gods can do the same. Moreover, the Shiwu Wings lack the ‘Origin,’ so this move’s power is indeed weaker compared to the World Light Domain.”

The higher the level of the secret technique, the greater its power.

“One Thought Void,” even in its simplified form, was far below Luo Feng’s current capabilities. Unfortunately, Luo Feng had not yet fully grasped the fourth level of the Shiwu Wings, “One Thought Creates the Universe.” Once he mastered and unleashed it, its power would be truly formidable.

As for the Golden Sea Pearl, its complexity was naturally far beyond One Thought Void. It was a treasure that only an ordinary Void God could activate, reaching nearly the peak of what Luo Feng could currently harness.

Being a Machine Stream artifact, though not as refined as the Shiwu Wings, its power was still significantly stronger than One Thought Void.

The boundless golden sea and One Thought Void combined, relentlessly compressing the World Light Domain.

“Hmph.”

Beidi snorted angrily. The World Light Domain had shrunk to just a thin film surrounding its body. Despite this, the density of the ‘World Light Film’ was extremely high, still resisting all attacks.

“Lord Luo Feng of the Milky Way,” Beidi sneered, “you’re only relying on your treasures. You must have used treasures to capture Moros into your Star Tower and enslave him.”

The truth was not far from this.

Luo Feng had used the power of One Thought Void, the pressure of space, and the might of the Cosmic Origin to prevent Moros from resisting or self-destructing.

“I’ve heard you have an endless ocean clone,” Beidi said.

Beidi was particularly arrogant. He indeed had every reason to be confident. As he spoke, endless black light radiated from him, quickly enveloping Luo Feng in the distance.

So fast was it that Luo Feng couldn’t even dodge.

Countless black threads wildly entangled Luo Feng, wrapping him up entirely, turning him into a cocoon.

“But you were originally human and have now ascended to the True God level. You must return to your human form eventually… Your endless ocean clone is probably gone. Killing you? There’s no need to fight you directly; I just need to drain your divine power!” Beidi sneered at the black cocoon in the distance. “The same move, when used by a third-stage World Beast and a fifth-stage World Beast, is completely different. My power is purer, stronger. The ‘World’ power’s absorption ability is also far more powerful.”

Hiss~~~

Inside the black cocoon, Luo Feng did not rush to break free. Instead, he furiously burned his divine power, wildly attacking the surrounding black cocoon.

Divine power and World Beast power clashed violently in a fierce struggle.

“Want to compete in divine power?” Luo Feng sneered inwardly. He could easily transform his divine power into World Beast power, making it impossible for the opponent to sustain the struggle. But why not enjoy the contest?

“According to Moros, the divine power reserves of a fifth-stage World Beast might rival a True God with a height of over ten million kilometers,” Luo Feng mused. “Still, it’s less than a trillionth of mine.”
