When Luo Feng received the email from Monarch Muna, he had already suspected that it was probably related to the Purple Bell King. Now, upon hearing that even the coordinates of the Sacrificial Tower had been made public, he had no more doubts. It was almost certainly the work of the Purple Bell King, given his vengeful and ruthless personality.
“Purple Bell King, I haven’t come after you yet, but you’ve started provoking me,” Luo Feng thought angrily. “Looks like you’re determined to kill me!”
“You’ve got guts.”
“You really have guts, not fearing that I might expose your possession of the ancient purple bell.”
Actually, when the Purple Bell King returned to his lair after leaving the Sacrificial Tower, he had carefully considered the matter and realized one thing: if the human Yang had no means to deal with him, then since the Purple Bell couldn’t be obtained, Yang would definitely not give up so easily. It was very likely that Yang would spread the news about his possession of the mysterious purple bell. Since Yang was capable of stirring things up behind the scenes, it was most appropriate to force him to come out and kill Yang as soon as possible.
If the human Yang wanted to kill him, the Purple Bell King, and seize the ancient bell, he naturally wouldn’t publicize the information that the Purple Bell King possessed the ancient bell. However, doing this… indicated that Yang posed a greater threat to him, daring to harbor ambitions of seizing his treasures, so he should eliminate Yang even earlier.
In either scenario, the Purple Bell King had to strike first!
“Cruel.”
“You’re really cruel. Originally, I planned to wait until my strength increased further before dealing with you. Since you’ve issued a challenge now… then let’s fight!” A murderous intent filled Luo Feng’s heart. “People who are kind get taken advantage of; horses that are gentle get ridden. You all assume that because I, Yang, maintain a low profile, I’m easy to bully. Then I must seize an opportunity… to show my true capabilities, to strike fear into the hearts of ambitious adversaries.”
Repeatedly engaging in battles against greedy adversaries was foolish.
The optimal strategy was to rely on a truly brutal and insane display of strength to showcase his power and intimidate other powerhouses. By proving his might, he could make them realize that “Yang” was both formidable and dangerous. Naturally, no one would dare provoke Luo Feng anymore. Without enemies and armed with overwhelming power, no powerhouse would challenge Luo Feng simply because he possessed treasures.
After all, in the universe, there were many king-level powerhouses with vast wealth and treasures.
As long as one’s strength matched their riches… no one would dare to provoke them.
…
Monarch Muna looked at Luo Feng and said softly, “Yang, are you alright?”
“I’m fine. I’m just thinking about who’s spreading rumors to cause me trouble,” Luo Feng replied coldly with a smile. “It must be one of those with whom I have deadly enmity.”
“If anything happens, just summon us. We human powerhouses aren’t easy to provoke either,” Monarch Muna continued. “Invite some human powerhouses and other allies from the human faction… If it comes to war, so be it. What’s there to fear?”
“Alright,” Luo Feng nodded slightly.
“Monarch Muna, thank you for informing me of this news. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known when enemies came knocking,” Luo Feng added.
“Oh, don’t blame yourself. This news initially spread most widely among alien races before reaching our human faction. As soon as I learned of it, I immediately came to find you,” Monarch Muna replied.
Luo Feng nodded. “This matter is quite troublesome. I’ll go back first and think about how to deal with it.”
“Go ahead,” Monarch Muna reminded him. “Be careful. In the battlefield beyond the domain, many alien races are mixed together. When dealing with greedy aliens, you must strike hard from the beginning. Once you make them hurt and instill fear in them, they won’t dare to act recklessly. If you fail to hurt them, more aliens might try to get involved.”
“I understand,” Luo Feng nodded.
It seems…
A massacre is inevitable!
…
In the Yanji Continent,
“That message is true. Some King-level powerhouses have already joined forces to forcibly break into the Sacrificial Tower and conducted a thorough search,” two members of the Mechanical Race sat facing each other, with the slightly taller one speaking gravely. “They discovered a complete G-grade metal treasure vault and a damaged G-grade vault inside the tower, but all the treasures had already been taken!”
“A treasure chamber made of G-grade metal?” The shorter mechanical race individual was astonished. “Looks like there really was treasure.”
“Currently, numerous powerful extraterrestrial beings on the Yanji Continent are investigating information about the human named ‘Yang’ through various channels, yet no one has managed to locate him thus far,” the taller mechanical being rasped. “Once this human is found, it will trigger war and bloodshed, potentially drawing in many alien factions.”
“Patz,” the shorter mechanical race individual grinned. “Are you going?”
“Haha, this human is weak, probably just a newly crowned young king. He has no right to possess such a treasure. Of course, I’m going,” the taller member of the mechanical race replied.
“You and I will team up, and split the obtained treasures equally.”
“Deal!”
…
Thus, these two mechanical race individuals formed an alliance. On the Yanji Continent, King-level powerhouses typically had ample free time. Ordinarily, battles between King-level experts seldom escalated into life-or-death struggles. However, the incident involving the “Sacrificial Tower Treasure” had suddenly turned the Yanji Continent into a hotspot of activity, even attracting some King-level powerhouses from the more perilous region known as the “Star Tower” to venture onto the continent.
For a time, the Yanji Continent was filled with tension and unrest.
Even the alien Marquis-level powerhouses were secretly ordered to begin investigating, searching for the whereabouts of the human Yang. However, strangely…
No matter how hard they searched… they couldn’t find him!
“A cowardly human.”
“A despicable human.”
“He must have fled in fear, surely abandoning the battlefield beyond our territory,” many powerful figures on the Yanji Continent muttered in anger.
Among those most furious and worried on the Yanji Continent was the Purple Bell King.
In a dark, icy mountain range.
The Purple Bell King sat cross-legged on a cold rock, his eyes gleaming with a cold, sinister light as he muttered, “The entire Yanji Continent has been searched multiple times, yet this human Yang has vanished? Unfindable? Hmph, despite being cornered by me, he still hasn’t revealed the information about my possession of the precious ancient bell.”
“It seems this human Yang has great ambitions.”
He must have figured out that I was the one spreading the rumors to force him out. Logically, he should retaliate by exposing my secrets. But he hasn’t said a word… It seems he intends to seize the chance to kill me and take my treasure. Thinking this way means he must have some confidence in his plan.
“Human…”
Deep down, the Purple Bell King was actually wary of Luo Feng.
Because within the Sacrificial Tower, Luo Feng’s speed had been so fast it made one’s heart race. Even within the Purple Bell, where the Cangold King perished while Luo Feng survived, and Luo Feng’s ability to hide his life signs completely until the Purple Bell King used his spatial ring to collect the metal fragment, which finally exposed Luo Feng… all of these demonstrated Luo Feng’s terrifying capabilities.
How could the Purple Bell King dare to underestimate a master with so many tricks up his sleeve?
“This time I also gained nearly a thousand billion Yulan units of wealth,” the Purple Bell King murmured to himself. “I should prepare well. This human is now completely hidden. If he doesn’t erupt now, when he does, it will be very intense.”
…
Whether it was Luo Feng or the Purple Bell King,
Both of them were clear: when they exited the Sacrificial Tower, they had become enemies. And after the Purple Bell King spread that information… they were now locked in a life-and-death struggle!
…
Inside the 026th military camp base, Luo Feng was lying leisurely by a swimming pool in front of a villa on a mountaintop. The mountaintop was covered in snow, but the pool water was warm, creating a misty atmosphere.
Indeed, while the Yanji Continent was in a frenzy searching for Luo Feng, Luo Feng was actually inside the military camp base. In fact, when Luo Feng was dealing with a large amount of treasure, he had already been rushing back to the military camp base rapidly because he needed to conduct transactions with various parties, including the Virtual Universe Company, so naturally, he had to return to the military camp base.
“Looking for me?”
“How can they find me when I’m in the military camp base? Who can do anything to me?” Luo Feng lay relaxed in the pool, completely at ease.
Suddenly, three figures flew in from the distance.
“The Virtual Universe Company people have arrived.” Luo Feng’s body was instantly covered in silver armor, with wings emerging from his back as he burst out of the water and stood on the snowy mountaintop.
“Hello, I’m from the Virtual Universe Company.” The leader, a three-eyed man dressed in a golden robe, appeared very elegant and humble.
He had received orders from his department head, who hadn’t even disclosed the client’s identity and strictly forbade him from asking unnecessary questions. This left the Three-Eyed Man—already a titled King-level powerhouse—feeling somewhat resentful… His department head was a Venerable-level powerhouse in the universe, a true high-ranking executive of the company. Yet even he had barred him from making inquiries, which suggested this matter involved the highest echelons of the Virtual Universe Company.
“I know.” Luo Feng nodded and casually tossed a world ring over.
The three-eyed man caught it and used his immortal force to penetrate inside for inspection. At the same time, he took control of the unclaimed world ring and threw a detection device inside. Manual inspection and instrument detection proceeded simultaneously, while he said, “Because the goods involved are numerous and extensive, my verification and inspection may take some time.”
“No rush.” Luo Feng stood there.
Approximately three minutes later.
The instrument inspection was already complete, and the Three-Eyed King-level powerhouse had finally finished his inspection.
“All the goods are accounted for.” The three-eyed man smiled at Luo Feng. “The payment has been transferred. I won’t take up any more of your time.” The golden-eyed man clearly understood just how astronomical the sum involved in this transaction was—it was a deal exceeding 200 billion Hunyuan units. To engage in such a colossal trade indicated that this silver-armored, silver-winged powerhouse had an extraordinary background.
…
The transactions with Virtual Universe Company were the fastest, while other channels proved more cumbersome. Some goods were sold to shops, some to individuals, and some to alien powerhouses. In fact, due to the enormous scale of the transactions, certain alien powerhouses personally visited the 026th Military Camp Base to conduct on-site inspections and verify the goods.
It took nearly a month in total to finish all the dealings.
“Hah…” Luo Feng stretched lazily in the icy and snowy environment, lying in the misty pool with a slight smile. “All done. The cash amounts to about 560 billion Hunyuan units!”
“What a huge sum!”
“Perhaps to a Venerable of the universe, it’s just a small amount. But among Monarch-level immortals, it’s already an incredibly enormous fortune.”
“I need to think about how to handle this wealth.”
“Should I use it on ‘Original Body Heaven and Earth’ and other methods to enhance my strength?”
“Or should I invest it in auxiliary plant lives like ‘Thousand Vine Star-Eating Grass’?”
“Or should I purchase some weapons from the mechanical race? Even if I don’t end up using the mechanical race weapons, I can sell them later. However, enhancing my own strength and cultivating plant lives can’t be reversed by selling the plants back for money.”
Luo Feng lay in the swimming pool, his mind racing with thoughts.
It was foolish to hold 560 billion Hunyuan units of wealth in his account. Of course, he needed to quickly convert it into strength, making himself even more powerful.
