Luo Feng took all the items left behind by the youth in black armor, completely removing and scattering them across the vast grassland, covering an area spanning millions of kilometers.
Although there were many items, only a few were truly valuable.
One item in particular immediately drew Luo Feng’s attention.
“A 29-centimeter segment of ‘Thousand-Year Light’?” Black Luo Feng crouched down, looking at a substance resembling a laser beam. This 29-centimeter-long “light” lay on the grass. If one stared at it closely, one could feel the distortion of time around it, and would involuntarily become immersed in it.
Thousand-Year Light was a unique substance, a precious material used to forge time-based weapons. Such materials were usually formed accidentally within the cores of black holes or in some peculiar cosmic secret realms.
Priceless.
“This 29-centimeter segment of Thousand-Year Light would cost me about 3 billion points if I were to purchase it from the treasure vault,” muttered Black Luo Feng. “This Nasi Clan expert actually had such a rare treasure.”
“Qingguang Baimu Wood, 32 kilometers long, with a cross-section diameter ranging from 2.1 meters to 8.2 meters, varying in thickness.”
“Nine-Purity Light Sand, 360 grains.”
…
Black Luo Feng quickly identified the items, growing increasingly delighted.
“It seems this Nasi Clan youth had accumulated so many materials, definitely intending to forge a powerful time-based law weapon,” Luo Feng murmured. “That black whip was also made from decent materials, capable of expansion and contraction, and contained time law patterns, but its estimated value was only between 100 million to 200 million points. Nowhere near the value of these materials… Just these materials alone would cost about 8 billion points if I were to buy them. This Nasi Clan youth must have paid an even greater price. If this weapon were completed, its power would be immense.”
After sorting through all the items,
Black Luo Feng wore a smile.
Good.
The efficiency of accumulating military merits to earn wealth and treasures could not compare to killing individuals with backgrounds. A single successful kill could yield a vast amount of treasures. Of course… the more powerful the background, the greater the difficulty in killing them. Killing the youth in black armor wasn’t as difficult as killing the Machine Clan’s Cvikka. And compared to killing Luo Feng himself, killing Cvikka was much easier.
The youth in black armor, Cvikka, and Luo Feng all had backgrounds, with their backgrounds growing increasingly formidable. Successfully killing Luo Feng would grant treasures such as the Shiwu Wings, Beast God Armaments, Lock God Water, the black metal plate, and the Jiang Armor. That would be a true fortune.
Although they had backgrounds, the Cosmic Sovereigns behind the youth in black armor and Cvikka were too afraid to enter the battlefield beyond the domain. As for Luo Feng’s teacher, the Chaos City Lord, he had even stated that he hoped never to see the day when Luo Feng would call for help, since even though he had the authority to enter the battlefield beyond the domain,
it would still be somewhat degrading for someone of his status to do so.
He would not do it unless pushed to the very last moment.
…
“Hmm.”
“Good haul,” said Black Luo Feng, nodding.
Beside him, the Gold-Horned Giant Beast was looking down at the countless items scattered below when it suddenly noticed a seemingly ordinary crystal. The Gold-Horned Giant Beast lowered its head, its dark golden eyes fixed on the crystal hidden among the chaotic pile of items. It was a seemingly ordinary transparent crystal, shaped like a polyhedral sphere.
Swoosh!
Black Luo Feng also flew over to take a closer look.
The polyhedral crystal was about the size of a soccer ball, lying on the ground, appearing completely ordinary.
“Shiuu!” A thread of world force swept across the crystal’s surface for observation before directly penetrating into its interior for further examination.
“Buzz!”
As the world force entered the crystal,
it suddenly lit up.
Whoosh!
Colorful beams of light radiated in all directions from the polyhedral crystal like a dazzling multicolored sun. In an instant, the endless multicolored light engulfed an entire world. Under this infinite multicolored glow, both Black Luo Feng and the Gold-Horned Giant Beast clone felt the distortion and chaos of time.
“Heavens!” Luo Feng’s eyes widened.
“Woof!” The Gold-Horned Giant Beast growled lowly, its dark golden eyes also wide open.
The two clones stared at the crystal that had just been ordinary but was now radiating endless multicolored light, enveloping the entire world. The mysterious and powerful aura, along with the strange sensation of time distortion, instantly made Luo Feng realize!
“Treasure!”
“I’ve hit the jackpot!”
“Wow, this must be the true treasure of that youth in black armor. I’ve always wondered… how he, with just a King-level cultivator, could use ‘Time Pause.’ They say that technique is even harder than teleportation. It must be this treasure. Definitely this treasure,” Luo Feng muttered, staring intently at the dazzling crystal.
Actually, when the Nasi Clan youth had used Time Pause, Luo Feng had initially thought it was a talent ability combined with his comprehension of the laws.
But now, seeing this mysterious crystal sphere…
Luo Feng was instantly convinced that it was almost certainly because of this crystal. Luo Feng had seen many treasures before, but ones with such a massive aura were rare indeed.
“Crackle, crackle, crackle~~~” Dense, mysterious characters began to appear on the surface of the crystal. These strange characters resembled law inscriptions. Although Luo Feng didn’t understand these characters, he could instantly grasp their meaning just by looking at them.
“These characters!”
Luo Feng’s eyes widened.
“These are the same characters I saw during the Demon Sound General’s inheritance! The same ones from the inheritance palace when I received the Demon Sound General’s legacy!”
Yes.
Luo Feng had only seen these mysterious characters once before, during his acceptance of the ‘Demon Sound General’s inheritance’ at the Demon Sound Mountain. The characters floating in the inheritance palace were exactly like these. Though he couldn’t recognize them, they conveyed their meanings clearly and magically.
The content was simple, roughly stating…
“This is the inheritance crystal of the Dreamlight Envoy. Any Sovereign-level lifeform with a soul may accept the complete inheritance of the Dreamlight Envoy.”
“Upon accepting the inheritance, one may begin cultivating the ‘Dreamlight Envoy Secret Art.'”
“Once the entire secret art is perfected, one becomes a Candidate Envoy. A Candidate Envoy may then fuse this inheritance crystal into their body. If successful… they will become the new ‘Dreamlight Envoy.'”
“In the vast universe, there is only one Dreamlight Envoy at any given time.”
“If the current Dreamlight Envoy is still in power, other inheritors who complete the training can only become ‘Dreamlight Envoy Candidates.’ Only when the current Dreamlight Envoy perishes will a new ‘Dreamlight Envoy’ emerge among the Candidates.”
“This inheritance crystal can be passed on once every 10,081 eons. The last inheritance from this crystal was 82 eons ago, so it will still take approximately 9,999 eons before the next inheritance can occur.”
…
Black Luo Feng blinked after reading through the message.
He now understood clearly. This ‘Dreamlight Envoy’ inheritance… seemed to have more than one person who had completed it. Obviously, its cultivation difficulty was much lower than that of the ‘Demon Sound General’ inheritance. Back then, the Demon Sound General’s inheritance stated that throughout countless years, no one had ever successfully completed the entire inheritance.
Moreover, the inheritance methods seemed different.
The Demon Sound General’s inheritance was step by step, reaching the end of the steps meant achieving perfection.
The Dreamlight Envoy’s inheritance, on the other hand, granted a complete set of secret techniques first, which one then cultivated. Upon reaching perfection, one became a ‘Candidate Envoy.’ Only upon the current Dreamlight Envoy’s death could one ascend to become the new Dreamlight Envoy.
“Still need to wait 9,999 eons before the next inheritance?”
“Damn.”
“100 million years?” Luo Feng chuckled wryly. “It seems the last inheritance from this crystal was obtained by that Nasi Clan youth. He must have received this mysterious inheritance secret art, which is why he was so powerful, able to use that ‘Time Pause’ technique.”
“What should I do with this inheritance crystal?” Luo Feng muttered.
It was a treasure, but he had no use for it himself.
It was easy to guess that it was related to the time law, while he followed the path of the Beast God. His Beast God path was the true great way leading to the Cosmic Sovereign, mainly focusing on ‘space and metal.’ Naturally, he wouldn’t waste time studying the ‘time law.’ Specialization was key, and his time should be spent on his own strengths.
Yet, even if he couldn’t use it,
its value couldn’t be denied. This was an inheritance crystal, capable of passing on the inheritance every 10,081 eons. Its worth was truly immeasurable.
“I can’t use it either.”
“Keeping it is just a waste. Even if someone wanted to use it, they’d have to wait 9,999 eons.” Luo Feng shook his head. “Perhaps only those ancient experts who had lived long enough and had the patience to wait could benefit from it.”
“Well, I should go ask my teacher how to deal with this treasure.”
Luo Feng made his decision instantly.
…
The Dreamlight Envoy’s inheritance crystal was something Luo Feng had never even seen in the treasure vault, clearly an extremely rare treasure. The best way to handle such a treasure was to consult the Chaos City Lord.
“Teacher Zhenyan cultivates the space law and is now stuck at the final step, wanting to become a Cosmic Sovereign. This treasure would be of no use to him.” Luo Feng was deeply grateful to Teacher Zhenyan. If he could help his teacher, he would be willing to give it away, but… Zhenyan was stuck at the final step, and many precious treasures were of no help to him.
The treasures that could help him were ones Luo Feng couldn’t offer.
…
In the virtual universe, at the highest peak of Thunder Island, deep within the endless chaotic currents, there was a palace—this was the Chaos City Lord’s palace.
Swish.
Luo Feng suddenly appeared outside the palace gate and then stepped inside, walking step by step into its depths.
“Teacher.” Standing in the grand hall, Luo Feng respectfully saluted.
“What do you need?” A calm voice came from deep within the chaotic currents.
“Disciple recently obtained a treasure in the battlefield beyond the domain by sheer coincidence,” Luo Feng respectfully said. “I have never seen this treasure before. When I examined it, mysterious characters automatically appeared on the crystal’s surface. I realized it was the inheritance crystal of the Dreamlight Envoy.”
“A Divine Envoy inheritance crystal?” The Chaos City Lord emerged from the endless currents.
Although he did not display his aura, his superior life form naturally made Luo Feng feel an instinctive reverence. The Chaos City Lord’s expression was amiable, his eyes as deep as the stars, and he smiled slightly: “You actually managed to obtain a Divine Envoy inheritance crystal. Your luck is indeed good. The Hong Alliance has collected more than 8,000 Divine Envoy inheritance crystals, but even among them, the Dreamlight Divine Envoy inheritance crystal is extremely rare, with only one in the Hong Alliance.”
“Eh—?” Luo Feng blinked.
“Don’t be surprised.”
The Chaos City Lord said, “You once went to accept the Demon Sound General inheritance. Even the Demon Sound General inheritance hall had 32 halls. If there are dozens or even hundreds of Dreamlight Divine Envoy inheritance crystals, what’s so strange about that?”
