On Earth, in the Yangzhou City of the Huaxia Nation on the Asian continental plate.
Luo Feng retracted his spaceship and descended directly toward the West Lake Estate below. It was already late afternoon, with the red sun hanging at the western horizon, casting its glow onto the now yellowing lawn. On this lawn stood an enormous alloy arena, where two boys wielding battle blades fought, their movements leaving afterimages.
Boom! Boom!
The air exploded, their speed generating sonic booms.
“Stop!” A seemingly honest bald man with thick lips and strange runes on his head smiled. His appearance resembled some of the odd symbols found in Earth’s Buddhist traditions.
The two boys halted.
The bald man with thick lips bowed slightly, his eyes filled with genuine respect. “Master.”
“Difan, thank you for your help,” Luo Feng said as he landed, his battle boots touching the arena.
“Dad!”
“Dad!” Luo Hai and Luo Ping, both with shining eyes, joyfully ran toward Luo Feng.
Luo Feng smiled at his two sons. Two years had passed, and his sons had become much more accomplished. With ample resources and the secret techniques from the Yimo Star lineage and the inheritance memories of the Golden-Horned Giant Beast, they had received the best training.
Now, both of them possessed the combat power of “High War God” level.
Such a level might seem extraordinary on Earth, but in the universe, it was nothing special.
At six or seven years old, children of good bloodlines could easily reach the Stellar Level even without special training.
“How have these two boys been lately?” Luo Feng smiled, looking at the bald man with thick lips, Difan.
“The two young masters are quite diligent, and their swordsmanship foundation is solid,” Difan praised.
“Dad, did you hear that?”
“We’ve been working really hard.”
The two boys proudly declared.
Luo Feng couldn’t help but laugh. “Go play first. I need to talk with your Uncle Difan.”
“Okay.”
The two boys nodded enthusiastically, exchanged glances, their eyes gleaming with excitement, and then dashed toward the castle. For them, entering the virtual universe to play “virtual games” was a very joyful thing. There were many children their age inside.
“Difan, how has your recent cultivation been?” Luo Feng asked with a smile.
“The secret technique ‘Soul Blade Slash’ you passed on is indeed profound. I’ve recently made some progress, but… there are many confusing parts,” Difan replied respectfully.
“Tell me,” Luo Feng said.
“Please, Master, guide me,” Difan bowed. “Regarding the first layer of ‘Soul Blade Slash,’ about how to condense soul power into a blade…”
Difan asked, and Luo Feng answered.
More accurately, it was Babata answering, because the ‘Soul Blade Slash’ technique was one of the most powerful secret techniques from the Yimo Star lineage, accidentally obtained by the Yimo Star Master from an ancient ruin. Therefore, its cultivation did not have any special and strict requirements, unlike the ‘Soul Seal’ technique, which required a soul transformation.
Babata had records of the cultivation experience for the ‘Soul Blade Slash’ technique.
Therefore, when Difan encountered difficulties, Babata provided the answers, and Luo Feng relayed them.
“This Difan…”
After finishing, Luo Feng saw Difan lost in thought and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, “I’m really lucky to have bought this servant.”
Yes!
Difan was a servant Luo Feng had purchased, and he was a Level 9 Cosmic Servant!
In the vast universe, the method of controlling servants through biochips could only control up to Level 9 Cosmic Servants. Once a servant broke through to Domain Master, they could destroy the chip in their brain and survive. Therefore, the highest level of servants sold in the market was only Level 9 Cosmic.
Among them, a Level 1 Cosmic Servant usually cost between ten to thirty million cosmic credits, equivalent to the price of dozens of life-bearing planets.
A Level 4 Cosmic Servant cost between one hundred million to three hundred million cosmic credits.
A Level 7 Cosmic Servant cost between one billion to three billion cosmic credits.
A Level 8 Cosmic Servant cost between three billion to ten billion cosmic credits.
A Level 9 Cosmic Servant also cost between three billion to ten billion cosmic credits.
Why were the prices for Level 8 and Level 9 Cosmic Servants similar? Because purchasing a Level 9 Cosmic Servant carried risks! Although breaking through to Domain Master was extremely difficult and rare for a Level 9 Cosmic Servant, it was still possible. One day, a Level 9 Cosmic Servant might break through!
Once they reached Domain Master, they would no longer be controlled by the biochip and would regain their freedom!
They might then angrily kill their master who had always commanded and controlled them. In the universe, there had been many instances of Level 9 Cosmic Servants breaking through and then wreaking havoc, which is why the price of Level 9 Cosmic Servants was actually similar to that of Level 8 Cosmic Servants.
Difan was a Level 9 Cosmic Servant, and reaching that level showed his extraordinary talent.
When Luo Feng bought Difan directly from a slave merchant, the merchant had even advised him, “Sir, this Level 9 Cosmic Slave is dangerous. Once he breaks through, no one can control him. Why not buy a Level 8 Cosmic Slave instead? Although it’s one level lower, it’s much safer. When the Level 8 Slave breaks through to Level 9, you can sell him, and you won’t lose anything!”
“I’ll take him!” Luo Feng had said without hesitation.
After purchasing Difan, Luo Feng transformed into his Golden-Horned Giant Beast form and used it to cast the “Soul Enslavement Seal,” which he had just successfully cultivated. He ordered Difan not to resist!
As a servant, Difan naturally did not resist!
Thus…
Luo Feng implanted the “Soul Enslavement Seal” deep into Difan’s soul, integrating it into his very essence. From that moment on, Difan became Luo Feng’s most loyal servant, loyal at the very core of his soul!
“Using the Soul Enslavement Seal to control someone will also affect your own soul. Your teacher controls only nine immortal servants, so you must value quality over quantity!” Babata reminded Luo Feng.
“I understand.”
Luo Feng had thoroughly studied the “Soul Enslavement Seal” technique, carefully reading about the side effects and precautions of the “Soul Enslavement Seal.” He naturally understood that choosing a servant required utmost care. Because this was a servant controlled through the soul, there was a connection between their souls. The master could completely control the servant, but the servant could also affect the master.
“Difan has been a slave for a long time. As a slave, his external conditions for cultivation were extremely poor, yet he managed to reach this level. I have also checked his background… He is worthy of becoming one of my soul servants.”
Difan was the first true servant under Luo Feng’s command!
…
The Nolanshan Family’s spaceship could arrive on Earth at any moment, so Luo Feng had not entered the nutrient chamber in recent days and was quietly waiting on Earth.
…
October 28, 2065, Huaxia Time, at the edge of the solar system.
A streamlined axe-shaped D3-class spaceship, like a meteor, was flying toward the solar system.
Inside the spaceship’s control room.
Bakarlo, wearing a black robe, and Dewen, wearing a blue battle robe, stood side by side at the control panel. The spaceship projected an external view, allowing them to clearly see the beautiful solar system in the distance. Around the dazzling central star, planets revolved eternally, and one distant, small, and unremarkable blue planet caught their attention.
“Earth!” Bakarlo’s voice was cold.
“Yes, Earth. We’ve arrived,” Dewen smiled, turning to Bakarlo. “Bakarlo, do you remember the teacher’s words? We shouldn’t alert the Earthlings first. Let’s quietly retrieve the Mechanical Clan’s spaceship first!”
“I know,” Bakarlo replied coldly.
Dewen felt displeased but still smiled outwardly.
…
At this moment, at the edge of the solar system, among some scattered asteroids, there were some ‘satellites’ disguised as asteroids. In fact, throughout the solar system, there were many such disguised detection devices. It could be said that the entire solar system was already under extremely tight surveillance. Unless it was a spacecraft with Mechanical Clan technology, it would be impossible to go undetected by these detection devices!
A randomly shaped disguised asteroid.
“Beep—beep—beep—”
The signal quickly transmitted the captured footage to the Earth’s planetary defense system command center—the castle of Luo Feng’s home.
A series of signals.
This D3-class spaceship was completely detected and clearly identified.
…
Earth, around 7 PM Huaxia Time.
The night had already fallen.
The entire Yangzhou City was bustling with bright lights. As the holy place for countless warriors in Yangzhou—the West Lake Estate, the residence of Luo Feng, was filled with laughter.
The Luo family was gathered around the table, having dinner.
Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan, his wife, along with his younger brother Luo Hua, his wife, and their child, as well as Luo Feng himself, his wife, his two sons, and, of course, his first servant, Difan, were all present.
“Uncle Difan, I really practiced swordplay for an hour this afternoon, right?” Xiaohai called out.
“Yes,” Difan smiled and nodded.
“Mom, did you hear that?” Xiaohai raised his eyebrows, looking at his mother, Xu Xin.
Luo Feng looked at his son’s cute appearance and couldn’t help but smile. Suddenly, the bracelet on his arm made a sound: “Beep—beep—beep—”
“Hmm?” Luo Feng’s expression changed slightly.
This was an alarm he had set up in advance. Only when several major issues arose in the planetary defense system would it directly alert him.
Luo Feng looked down and saw a dynamic video on the bracelet screen. A streamlined axe-shaped spaceship was flying rapidly at the edge of the solar system, heading toward Earth.
“They’re here,” Luo Feng’s eyes flashed with sharpness.
“Dad, Mom, you continue eating. I have something to do,” Luo Feng smiled as he stood up.
“You always have the most things to do,” Luo Hongguo said.
Luo Feng grinned, patted the heads of his two sons, held his wife’s hand, and whispered, “Xu Xin, I’m going out for a while. I’ll probably be back tomorrow morning.”
“Be careful,” Xu Xin said.
The family knew that Luo Feng sometimes had important matters to attend to. Sometimes, he would even shut himself away for half a month. Therefore, it was already rare for Luo Feng to have dinner with the family. They were already used to him suddenly leaving, though it did mean he hadn’t finished his meal, prompting a few words of complaint from his father, Luo Hongguo.
“Difan.” Luo Feng signaled to Difan with a glance.
Difan also stood up.
The two quickly left the castle.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
They shot into the sky, directly flying toward the upper atmosphere of Yangzhou City. A black, disc-shaped spaceship suddenly appeared in the sky. After Luo Feng and Difan boarded the spaceship, they immediately changed into alloy battle suits, battle boots, and other gear.
Boom!
The spaceship accelerated, directly breaking through the atmosphere, quickly leaving Earth and heading into space.
The battle!
It was about to happen in space. A Cosmic-level battle would be catastrophic for a planet.
