Chapter 732: Charging through the Skybridge

Luo Feng stood before the Nine Heavens Heaven-Reaching Bridge, gazing at the endless bridge stretching into the distance, and smiled slightly, “Old friend, it’s been a while since I last came to play. Since I must stir up heaven and earth today, let’s go all out and show off some real power.”

Zoooom!

In an instant, he transformed into a golden streak of light, gliding along the bridge and vanishing into the distance, beginning his challenge of the Heaven-Reaching Bridge.

As Luo Feng began his challenge, Guardian Bafen started sending mass emails.

“Such a rare genius, born once in ten thousand eons. There are truly so many powerful figures paying attention to Luo Feng,” muttered Guardian Bafen, “They’ve all ordered me to notify them the moment Luo Feng begins challenging the Heaven-Reaching Bridge.”

In an instant, dozens of emails were sent out.

Among Luo Feng’s generation of geniuses from the Genius Competition, three stood out: Bolan, Ronjun, and Luo Feng himself. Bolan and Luo Feng were both recognized as rare prodigies born once in ten thousand eons, while Ronjun was considered a priceless treasure by some high-level executives of the Virtual Universe Company, who competed to take him as a disciple.

At least for now, among these three peerless geniuses, Luo Feng was leading the way.

King Lonyu extended a crystalline finger and lightly tapped the air, creating a screen. The screen displayed an email.

“Has Luo Feng begun challenging the Heaven-Reaching Bridge?” King Lonyu’s exquisite face bore a strange smile as he murmured, “This kid always likes to shock people. Others from his Genius Competition often challenge the Heaven-Reaching Bridge, especially Bolan… he’s already passed the eighth level!”

“I wonder how many levels he’ll pass this time. The ninth? Or the unthinkable tenth?” King Lonyu smiled and immediately set off toward the Heaven-Reaching Bridge realm.

King Zhenyan, King Lonyu, King Tonnan… and Lord Beicang, a total of 86 immortal beings, over half of them were King-level, the rest were Marquis-level. These 86 immortals arrived at the Heaven-Reaching Bridge realm space within ten seconds of each other.

On the island of the Heaven-Reaching Bridge realm space, a group of powerful immortal beings gathered around King Zhenyan.

“Haha, so many people,” King Zhenyan laughed, looking around.

“King Zhenyan, who else but you could have such an outstanding disciple,” a huge man with golden eyes and a beard like golden needles said, “My Venerable ordered me to keep an eye on this young man, and I dare not slack off even a bit. As soon as I heard Luo Feng was challenging the Heaven-Reaching Bridge, I came immediately to watch the live stream.”

“Yes, we all received orders from our Venerables,” the Kings and Marquises smiled.

The atmosphere was quite pleasant.

King Zhenyan turned his head with a smile toward King Lonyu beside him, teasing, “Lonyu, you should inform the Nine-Sword Venerable of these developments. With so many powerful figures watching Luo Feng… the Nine-Sword Venerable must be feeling some pressure. Don’t let my disciple achieve great things in the future only to be poached by other powerful figures.”

“What belongs to the Venerable is the Venerable’s. No one can take it away,” King Lonyu’s bright eyes swept over the gathered immortal beings, causing them all to burst into laughter.

The Venerables (Cosmic Sovereigns) within the Virtual Universe Company were also competing with each other. The more powerful warriors and followers they had, the more advantageous their position. Moreover, acquiring more peak King-level immortals could potentially lead to one of them even breaking through to become a Cosmic Venerable.

Forming factions and alliances, the Cosmic Venerables also grouped together, forming various factions. And since the Venerables themselves couldn’t always act directly, having powerful subordinates was extremely important.

“It’s hard to recruit ordinary King-level immortals, but when Luo Feng reaches the level of his teacher, King Zhenyan, he could form his own school,” a woman with a snake tail and wearing black gauze smiled, “Even the Nine-Sword Venerable wouldn’t be able to stop it. Then, many Venerables and Sovereigns will each use their means to attract Luo Feng… it’s hard to say whom Luo Feng might choose to follow.”

“You really have high hopes for Luo Feng,” King Lonyu looked at her.

“At least, there’s that possibility,” the woman in black gauze smiled, “Let’s hear everyone’s opinions. Which level do you think Luo Feng will pass this time?”

“At least the eighth level! Bolan from their Genius Competition has already passed the eighth level.”

“I think he might reach the ninth level. Luo Feng always likes to surprise people.”

“Yes, I also think it’s likely the ninth level.”

“The ninth level is the limit! Every three levels is a checkpoint; it’s unlikely he’ll reach the tenth.”

“The ninth level.”

“Perhaps even the tenth level. Then everyone will be so shocked their eyes will pop out.”

“King Zhenyan, what do you think?”

A group of Kings and Marquises, representing the Venerables, were all discussing freely. Even though some of the Marquises might be weaker, being entrusted with such matters clearly indicated they were trusted confidants.

“It seems the majority believe he’ll reach the ninth level,” King Zhenyan smiled faintly, glancing around at the crowd, “Let’s just watch. Oh, the battle has begun!”

Immediately, the 86 immortal beings turned their gazes toward the screen.

On the screen, Luo Feng had just flown to the end of the eighth level of the Heaven-Reaching Bridge, exchanged a few words with the blue-robed opponent formed from meteor fragments, and then immediately engaged in battle.

The fight lasted briefly before ending.

He passed the eighth level!

“His victory over the eighth-level opponent wasn’t very decisive; the ninth level might be a stretch.”

“Yes.”

The 86 immortal beings watched the screen and commented, but soon fell into silence.

The ninth-level opponent still used the sixth stage of the Divine God Weapon, the ‘Sword World,’ which had reached a high level of mastery. Luo Feng also used the ‘Sword World’ to fight the opponent for dozens of rounds, carefully feeling out the opponent’s attack techniques before finally defeating him.

Ninth level passed!

The tenth-level opponent was a yellow-robed figure who used the seventh stage of the Divine God Weapon, ‘A Staff Strike Shaking Heaven and Earth,’ which was actually an advanced version of the ‘Sword World’ at its peak. Luo Feng similarly sparred with the opponent for dozens of rounds before finally unleashing his full power to kill the opponent.

Tenth level passed!

The eleventh-level opponent was also a yellow-robed figure who used the eighth stage of the Divine God Weapon, ‘Golden Sword Severing Void,’ and Luo Feng once again sparred for dozens of rounds before killing the opponent.

Eleventh level passed!

On the island of the Heaven-Reaching Bridge realm,

A large group of immortal beings gathered in silence, staring at the screen in shock, their eyes filled with disbelief and horror.

Was it possible?

In just a few hundred years, he had progressed from being able to pass the seventh level of the Heaven-Reaching Bridge to passing the eleventh level. Moreover, all the immortal beings could see that Luo Feng was clearly holding back. In each battle, he sparred for dozens of rounds before killing his opponent, clearly indicating that even the eleventh-level opponent had not posed a significant challenge to him.

“Heavens!”

“How is this possible?”

“How could his progress be so fast? Even if he were a World Lord, let alone a Domain Lord, in just a few hundred years, he couldn’t possibly improve so much continuously.”

“Frightening!”

“Too frightening!”

Each of these Kings and Marquises was terrified. Luo Feng’s rate of improvement had surpassed the realm of ‘peerless genius’ and even transcended the first definition of ‘monstrous prodigy.’ He should be described as… a monster! An extraordinary genius monster who exceeded people’s imagination and defied normal developmental rules!

Just like Kedi in ancient times… a Cosmic-level, Domain Lord-level, World Lord-level being who continuously succeeded in conquering the Primordial Heaven-Reaching Mountain. At the peak of the World Lord level, he was comparable to an immortal King, and could even kill a Marquis-level immortal!

This was a monstrous existence!

Luo Feng’s power was naturally far inferior to Kedi’s at the same stage, but in terms of the rate of progress over a few hundred years… he might even surpass him!

“Could it be that he can even pass the twelfth level of the Heaven-Reaching Bridge?”

“Could it be that comprehending the laws is as easy for him as drinking water? How is that possible? There must be a limit, right?”

“Among the ten Domain Lord-level members of the Primordial Secret Realm in our Virtual Universe Company, the strongest has only passed the eleventh level, after thousands of years of cultivation. Could Luo Feng, in just a few hundred years, catch up to other peerless geniuses who have cultivated for thousands of years? That’s impossible!”

The immortal beings were completely breathless.

On the island of the Heaven-Reaching Bridge realm, it was deathly silent, no one spoke, all were staring intently at the screen.

Levels 7-9 of the Heaven-Reaching Bridge were in space. Levels 10-12, however, were inside a planet, with the bridge extending from the planetary core, through the magma layers, all the way to the surface.

On the surface layer.

Luo Feng stood at the end of the twelfth level of the Heaven-Reaching Bridge, overlooking the vast land below: “Finally made it to the surface.”

The ground beneath the Heaven-Reaching Bridge trembled slightly and emitted a rumbling sound: “Choose your opponent: Warrior, Controller, or Illusionist. Defeat him to pass the twelfth level.”

“Controller,” Luo Feng said.

Boom! Boom!

The earth trembled, countless earth-yellow lights flying out from all over the ground, quickly gathering in midair. In an instant, they transformed into a mysterious, powerful figure clad in yellow battle armor and wearing a mask. He carried a dark golden long staff and stood on a Dark Cloud Shuttle, staring at Luo Feng and speaking in a low voice: “A Domain Lord reaching the twelfth level is truly exceptional. No Domain Lord in the Virtual Universe Company has ever passed this level.”

“Then I’ll break this record,” Luo Feng smiled.

“You’re quite confident,” the yellow-clad figure said coldly, “I’m still using the eighth stage of the Divine God Weapon, ‘Golden Sword Severing Void,’ but I’m much stronger than the one at the eleventh level. Be careful.”

“Come on,” Luo Feng smiled faintly.

Boom! Boom!

Behind Luo Feng and the yellow-clad figure, countless golden lights erupted simultaneously, quickly forming into small golden swords, 81 of which rapidly converged into one.

Both of their bodies were surrounded by 108 small golden swords, which floated around them, each emitting numerous golden threads. Powerful law fluctuations surrounded them, the spatial law and the golden law harmonizing perfectly, rapidly merging together.

“Combine!” Luo Feng and the yellow-clad figure almost simultaneously shouted.

The 108 small golden swords instantly gathered, transforming into a golden broadsword about 2.8 meters long.

A golden broadsword floated in front of each of them.

“Buzzzzzz~~~” The golden sword in front of Luo Feng vibrated slightly.

“Mental Amplification! Explode!” Luo Feng felt some difficulty controlling the golden sword, so he increased his mental amplification to 1200 in one breath, instantly feeling much more at ease. It was as if an ordinary person struggling to lift a barbell suddenly had their strength increased twelvefold… naturally lifting the barbell would be effortless.
