Chapter 1472: Devouring Luo Feng’s Universe

Inside Luo Feng’s small universe.

Zuoshan Ke flew into a gradually forming dimensional space. As the vast land gradually took shape, Zuoshan Ke observed carefully and nodded with a smile: “This cosmic structure is truly extraordinary.”

Although the true nature of the cosmic structure was unknown, even a glimpse revealed its uniqueness, and Zuoshan Ke could vaguely sense something different.

“Luo Feng.”

With a wave of Zuoshan Ke’s hand, an elegant palace appeared nearby, and he directly stepped into it while saying, “I will stay inside your small universe. Right now, the 450,000 World Beasts are outside your small universe… carefully sense them. Once they launch an attack, immediately inform me.”

“Yes, Master,” came a voice from afar.

The 450,000 World Beasts were not attacking yet; it was merely a show of intimidation! Luo Feng couldn’t expect Zuoshan Ke to protect him forever, as maintaining such protection for his vast small universe must come at a great cost. Naturally, he would wait until the World Beasts started devouring before informing Zuoshan Ke.

At another location within the small universe.

Inside a spaceship.

Luo Feng’s divine-clone and Mosha were together.

“Master, the number of World Beasts in that area has sharply decreased to fewer than 50,000,” Mosha quickly reported.

Luo Feng nodded.

At this moment, his true body was approaching that area. He had stopped advancing because there was no clear target yet! After all, with so many World Beasts… once he attacked one, all the others would know. Therefore, the moment he acted, he had to capture a big one. He would wait!

“Mosha, you keep monitoring. Sense the aura of each World Beast carefully,” Luo Feng instructed. “Some World Beasts devour more, others devour less. Watch closely those that devour more. Once you sense one nearing the fifth-stage transformation, immediately report to me.”

From 450,000 down to fewer than 50,000.

On average, only one out of every nine World Beasts survived. However, in reality, some powerful World Beasts devoured faster, possibly consuming twenty or thirty others. Others might have struggled for a long time before finally defeating an opponent, having only devoured five or six. Naturally, the chances of evolving into a fifth-stage World Beast varied greatly.

“Yes,” Mosha respectfully replied.

Time passed.

Luo Feng clearly saw the number of glowing points on the massive model continuously decreasing. The 450,000 World Beasts surrounding his small universe had remained inactive, obviously waiting for Luo Feng’s move before responding accordingly.

“Less than 3,000 now,” Luo Feng observed the glowing points. The number had sharply declined from 450,000 to fewer than 3,000, illustrating the rapidity of the reduction.

With fewer than 3,000 glowing points, Luo Feng could now see each one clearly.

“No fifth-stage transformations yet?” Luo Feng asked again.

“Rest assured, Master,” Mosha replied. “There are only suspected cases of fifth-stage transformations so far. Even if one has transformed, it would have just crossed over and lacks full certainty. If you were to attack now, you would alarm the entire World Beast swarm, which would be counterproductive. If we wait a little longer, there will definitely be several that reach the fifth stage.”

Luo Feng nodded.

“One thing to remember: never let a sixth-stage transformation happen.”

“I will be cautious,” Mosha quickly replied. “It’s extremely difficult for a World Beast to reach the sixth stage. Previously, among the 450,000 World Beasts, it would require the energy of almost two-thirds of them converging into one World Beast to undergo the transformation into a sixth-stage being. Therefore, Master, rest assured, I will inform you in advance of any potential threats.”

Luo Feng nodded.

Time passed second by second…

Not only was Luo Feng anxious, but the True Gods in the Virtual Universe’s Hall of Gods were equally anxious. However, they dared not disturb Luo Feng.

“Master, it’s time to move out,” Mosha suddenly said.

“Move out?” Luo Feng’s eyes lit up.

“The total number of World Beasts in that area is now less than 1,000, and among them, three are definitely fifth-stage,” Mosha replied.

“Only three confirmed fifth-stage?” Luo Feng pondered.

“These three World Beasts have been extremely fast in their battles and devouring. Based on the number of World Beasts they’ve consumed… they must have become fifth-stage. Of course, they are still far from reaching the sixth stage.”

The difference between fifth and sixth stages.

It required thirty-three fifth-stage World Beasts to transform into one sixth-stage.

“Not yet,” Luo Feng frowned. “I can only kill a limited number of World Beasts. Let them grow stronger first before striking. Let them consume more World Beasts…”

The number of World Beasts continued to decrease.

800—600—300—

“Master, the remaining number of World Beasts is now only 210,” Mosha anxiously reported. “Ten of them are definitely fifth-stage, while the other seven have likely just recently reached the fifth stage. Among them, these three are the strongest.”

“Really?” Luo Feng looked over immediately.

It was time to act!

Waiting any longer would only increase the chances of a sixth-stage transformation.

“The three!” Luo Feng locked his sights on those three World Beasts.

In the endless chaotic currents, Luo Feng, clad in silver armor, stood in the void.

“As soon as I kill one World Beast, I will be immediately discovered,” Luo Feng thought to himself. “Then the other World Beasts will start fleeing… but I can teleport much farther, so I can definitely kill another one. Therefore, I can at least kill two World Beasts. Killing three would be my limit, and killing four would depend purely on luck.”

Luo Feng’s targets were naturally the strongest World Beasts.

“Let’s go!”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Luo Feng immediately began high-frequency, ultra-long-distance teleportation, heading toward his destination. He had already been near that area, and within only three minutes, he approached the World Beast that Mosha valued the most. Mosha added, “Master, this is the World Beast Qiya! When I was at my peak, he was already nearly my equal. Before this devouring began, I suspected he might be a fourth-stage. Now, after this massive consumption, he has devoured the most World Beasts. Based on my estimation, he is the one closest to reaching the sixth stage. His current strength must be at the pinnacle of the fifth stage.”

“Qiya?”

Luo Feng immediately teleported closer while carefully sensing.

“Hahaha!” A ferocious World Beast floated in the void, devouring another World Beast. “It’s your honor to be eaten by me. I am destined to be the ultimate ruler.”

World Beast Qiya was confident.

He had been at the peak of the World Beast clan early on. When Luo Feng had previously annihilated over eight million World Beasts, many top-tier World Beasts perished, especially Baidi, whose death allowed Qiya to become a fourth-stage World Beast, naturally placing him at the pinnacle. And in this mutual devouring, he naturally gave it his all, confident he was the fastest.

“Once I become a sixth-stage World Beast, I can split into countless clones. I will become immortal, and I will have countless ways to wear down my enemies. Even if I am surrounded, it will only cost me a clone. I can afford to fail hundreds or even thousands of times, but those World Beasts cannot afford to fail even once,” World Beast Qiya was filled with confidence. “The ultimate ruler will definitely be me.”

The one who first reaches the sixth stage is almost destined to be the ruler, for this very reason.

“The next one.”

World Beast Qiya sensed the nearest World Beast and immediately prepared to teleport and kill it.

“Buzz~~~” Suddenly, the space around him solidified.

“Not good!” Qiya’s heart trembled.

He hadn’t even seen who it was, but the mere solidification of space made him panic.

It was the Milky Way Lord—it had to be him!

He was now at the forefront of evolution, with the greatest hope of becoming the ruler. However, the greatest enemy on his path to rulership was the Milky Way Lord Luo Feng! If intercepted by him, everything would be over. If not intercepted, he would soar to become a sixth-stage World Beast and eventually the ultimate ruler.

“Roar~~” Both of Qiya’s heads turned. In the distance, a silver-armored man appeared, his dazzling five pairs of wings shining brilliantly.

Regret.

Qiya’s two solitary eyes were filled with madness and unwillingness.

Such deep regret.

Just a little more!

If it weren’t for this Milky Way Lord intercepting him, he would have had a great chance of becoming the ultimate ruler. But now, everything was lost! According to the plan established by the entire World Beast clan, the Milky Way Lord’s attack on them represented the most brutal scenario.

The Milky Way Lord Luo Feng had already abandoned his small universe! And the first to be attacked was naturally the sacrificial lamb. Qiya had become that sacrificial lamb.

“Milky Way Lord,” Qiya roared, “You will regret it! You will regret it!”

However, the silver-armored man in the distance paid no attention. The dazzling wings behind him emitted radiant light as his divine power, pushed to its peak, surged through them, instantly enveloping the endless space around him and forming a small universe.

“The Milky Way Lord is attacking me! He is attacking me! He is here, right here!” Qiya immediately began furiously broadcasting mentally to all the other World Beasts (except Mosha), “Destroy his small universe! Destroy his small universe! My comrades, avenge me!”

Filled with rage and resentment, Qiya roared and charged directly at the distant silver-armored man. At the same time, the blood-red patterns on his body began to rotate, clearly unleashing his ultimate killing move, “Destruction,” without hesitation.

“He is here!”

“He is here!”

“Destroy his small universe!”

“Destroy his small universe!”

World Beast Qiya’s voice, filled with hatred and fury, echoed in the minds of every World Beast. This was the joint plan agreed upon by the 900,000 World Beasts. They were determined to fight to the death, aiming to produce a sixth-stage World Beast. Once a sixth-stage World Beast emerged, the World Beast faction would almost certainly claim victory in this battle.

“He dared to come out and attack us while his small universe is surrounded by us?”

“This Milky Way Lord is truly reckless, not caring about his small universe anymore.”

“He is willing to pay any price!”

The World Beasts were furious too.

Was the Milky Way Lord willing to pay any price?

So were the World Beasts!

“Eat his small universe!” In the void surrounding the massive small universe, over 450,000 World Beasts were densely scattered. As their furious roars echoed, all the World Beasts immediately teleported closer to the small universe.

Soon, they entered the range where they could begin devouring.

“Devour it!”

“Devour it!”

Over 450,000 World Beasts simultaneously emitted countless twisting beams of light from their bodies, directly penetrating the void and faintly enveloping the immense small universe of Luo Feng in the distance.
