The Zi Zhong King was shattered into dust by the explosion of the Flame God Origin Crystal. Just as he began to re-form his body, he saw Luo Feng arriving, leaving him completely stunned: “How is this possible? I immediately started to re-form my divine body after it was shattered. The time elapsed was so brief. How could he possibly arrive at such a critical moment? Unless—the explosion of the Flame God Origin Crystal didn’t shatter his divine body! That’s absolutely impossible!”
But the truth was that the explosion indeed hadn’t shattered Luo Feng’s body!
Back then, in the Sacrificial Tower, when the elder Qiu Chika self-destructed inside the sealed treasure chamber, Luo Feng was able to withstand the blast.
The explosion of the Flame God Origin Crystal was ten times more powerful than Qiu Chika’s self-destruction!
Back then, the treasure chamber was completely sealed, while now it was an explosion in the endless void, spreading across millions of kilometers. Environmentally speaking, the sealed chamber naturally amplified the explosion’s power.
Previously, it was only Qiu Chika’s self-destruction alone, but this time there were two Flame God Origin Crystals.
Considering both factors together, the explosion power of the two Flame God Origin Crystals was only about ten times the power of Qiu Chika’s self-destruction in the sealed treasure chamber.
Back then, Luo Feng’s Moyun Battle Armor was at the peak of Marquis-level, its toughness comparable to that of a low-tier King-level human.
Now, his Moyun Battle Armor is at the early King-level, its toughness comparable to that of a high-tier King-level human!
The shockwave, already weakened by the ‘Shi Wu Wings’ and ‘Silver Armor’ to just one-thousandth of its original strength (equivalent to the explosion of an early King-level being), was barely able to crack the Moyun Battle Armor under the defense of armor comparable to high-tier King-level durability, and was completely dissipated in the process. It was even insufficient to reduce the armor to dust.
“When compared to the explosion in the Sacrificial Tower, the blast power has increased tenfold, but my Moyun Battle Armor has also greatly improved. You all were shattered into dust, yet I am unharmed,” Luo Feng directly withstood the impact. To be precise, it was the Moyun Battle Armor, protected by the Shi Wu Wings and Silver Armor, that absorbed the shockwave. As long as the armor could withstand it, Luo Feng naturally remained unscathed.
…
Luo Feng easily endured the explosion. Combined with the mere thousands of kilometers between him and the Zi Zhong King, a single flap of his wings sent him roaring toward the Zi Zhong King. The Zi Zhong King’s divine body had just begun to re-form from dust, still riddled with cracks. As per Luo Feng’s original plan, he immediately drew out the Poison Shadow Blade and slashed at the Zi Zhong King!
This slash was truly ruthless!
“How could he possibly arrive here so quickly?” Zi Zhong King was still filled with confusion. However, upon seeing Luo Feng’s slash, he sneered in his mind, “That Flame God Origin Crystal couldn’t even kill me. This slash of yours won’t even be able to shatter my divine body. It’s just too—ah!”
Puchi!
The blade pierced in!
The Poison Shadow Blade pierced into the Zi Zhong King’s immortal body, which was still full of cracks. Instantly, the Feimo poison began to erode it.
“No!” Zi Zhong King was completely terrified by the toxicity of the Feimo poison. Immediately, he chose to completely disintegrate his divine body again, but it was too late! It would take 10 grams of the poison to kill a peak King-level expert, but a mere 1 gram would suffice for an ultimate King-level expert.
Generally, when struck by a blade, even with the fastest reaction, about 0.3 to 0.8 grams of poison would still enter the body.
Zi Zhong King’s divine body had already dropped to less than 50%, and 0.72 grams of poison instantly entered his body, spreading to every fragment of his divine form, eroding every cell… Zi Zhong King was completely powerless to resist.
“I’m done for!” Zi Zhong King instantly realized this. His consciousness was filled with unwillingness, anger, and regret, but before death, Zi Zhong King quickly connected to the virtual world.
…
In the virtual world.
“Send mass emails! Mass emails!!!” Zi Zhong King’s consciousness formed a body standing in the hall, roaring.
According to his plan, one of the contingencies was that if the human Yang proved to be extremely formidable, he would drag down a large number of King-level experts from the Machine Race faction with him. He had already prepared mass emails, with the coordinates clearly written—the location of the cave he had previously occupied.
Swish, swish, swish~~~~~
Emails flew out like snowflakes, instantly reaching a large number of King-level experts in the Machine Race faction, prompting a flood of King-level experts to arrive.
“Has the human Yang appeared? Is he there?”
“The Sacrificial Tower treasure!!!”
“Hahaha…”
“He has appeared.”
Upon receiving the emails, a large number of King-level experts were instantly stirred into a frenzy. Although they were extremely excited, these King-level experts were not foolish… nor would they immediately teleport directly to the coordinates upon receiving the email. For one, only a very few could teleport. For another, what if it was a trap? Therefore, many of them naturally began to join forces, forming groups of King-level experts. With more experts, their strength increased, and even if it was a trap, they wouldn’t fear it.
“Haha… Hahaha…” Feeling his consciousness dispersing.
Zi Zhong King threw his head back and laughed maniacally, his laughter filled with madness.
He, Zi Zhong King, always considered himself extraordinary. After obtaining the mysterious ancient bell through his fortune, he had even used it to kill two ultimate King-level experts and several peak King-level ones, becoming an absolutely powerful figure among the Qixiang Race. He still harbored the desire to become a Cosmic Sovereign, yearning to become an even greater existence.
Yet—
It was all because he had provoked that human Yang. Although he had prepared detailed countermeasures, none of them had the chance to be implemented. The explosion of the Flame God Origin Crystal, combined with the Feimo poison, had sealed his fate.
“I die, but you won’t get away unscathed!!!” Zi Zhong King roared fiercely.
Pah!
His consciousness-formed body burst like a bubble, vanishing instantly, never to appear again.
Although he belonged to the Machine Race faction, the supreme Machine Race ‘Cosmic Sovereign’ might, in the future, massively resurrect the fallen. However, when it came to the Qixiang Race, they would at most resurrect the ultimate King-level Qixiang experts. Even if Zi Zhong King was lucky enough to be among those resurrected, the presence of the Zi Zhong within him would greatly interfere with the resurrection. The backlash from the cosmic laws due to the bell might even rival the backlash of resurrecting a Cosmic Sovereign. Thus, upon discovering that Zi Zhong King was carrying the ‘Zi Zhong,’ the Cosmic Sovereign would certainly choose to abandon the resurrection automatically.
Possessing a powerful treasure, ironically made resurrection after death much more difficult!
And if one were to forcibly restore the damaged treasure, the cost might be ten or even a hundred times the value of the treasure itself! Even without restoring and merely bringing back the treasure, its very existence would significantly increase the difficulty of ‘resurrection.’
…
He, Zi Zhong King, possessed the Zi Zhong, and was thus destined to be irrevocably lost! Unless the Cosmic Sovereign was willing to bear such an enormous cost!
Zi Zhong King had thus… perished!
…
In other distant regions of the Yanji Continent, many King-level experts from the Machine Race faction were conversing and forming alliances through the virtual world.
Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!
Experts with teleportation abilities carried other King-level experts and gathered together.
“Dream King, this news suddenly spread, all sent by Zi Zhong King. Obviously, it was a mass email sent to all the experts in the Machine Race faction. Could there be some kind of plot in this?” A group of King-level experts from various races, with different appearances, gathered in the sky. Their only commonality was that they all belonged to the Machine Race faction.
“There might be a trap!”
“But it could also be real.”
The group of King-level experts were exchanging telepathic messages when suddenly one of them, a short, stout, rock-covered deity, shouted: “I tried to contact Zi Zhong King, but the virtual world system notified me that Zi Zhong King has perished.”
“He has perished?”
“He is dead?”
The King-level experts, who had been skeptical, immediately tried to confirm for themselves. The virtual world system indeed confirmed Zi Zhong King’s demise. This made them instantly believe nine out of ten parts of the message… The virtual world system confirming Zi Zhong King’s death meant that at the time of his death, Zi Zhong King was connected to the virtual world, and the system had detected the circumstances of his demise.
Only when something is detected can it be completely confirmed.
Like the master of the Ink-Moon Star, Huyan Bo, who did not activate the virtual universe system to monitor his own condition, quietly perished. His death went unnoticed for ten thousand years.
“Hurry and set off!”
“Since Zi Zhong King has perished, the battle must have been fierce.” A group of King-level experts immediately shouted excitedly, “But our Machine Race faction will definitely have many experts rushing there. With so many experts, we fear no human.”
“We’ll teleport directly to a location tens of thousands of kilometers away from the coordinates. Even if there’s trouble, we can prepare ourselves slightly.”
“Let’s go.”
Xiu!
This group of experts immediately teleported away, heading toward the battlefield.
Although their strengths varied, even including some early King-level experts, they were not afraid. After all, they belonged to the same faction and would not turn on each other. As long as large groups of experts worked together, their safety would be greatly increased. Moreover, killing a King-level expert was no easy task. They believed that Zi Zhong King’s death must have cost the enemy a significant price.
…
On the Yanji Continent, and even in the distant Star Tower.
Batch after batch of King-level experts from the Machine Race faction began teleporting toward the battlefield! Of course, the group of King-level experts on the Yanji Continent were the first to arrive. As for the group from the distant Star Tower… they still needed to first find a safe location, then use their divine kingdoms for teleportation, and finally teleport to the destination. This would likely take quite some time!
…
At the battlefield, the shattered cosmic space was rapidly repairing itself, visibly stretching and restoring.
“A!” the Blood Beast King roared, his divine body fully reformed.
“My immortal body has suffered a loss of 42%—how long will it take to recover?” The Blood Beast King’s single eye was filled with fury and resentment. The loss of the divine body also meant the loss of the soul. Such losses could either be slowly repaired over a long period of time or accelerated with the help of certain rare treasures in the universe. However, those treasures were extremely valuable, and where would they get them?
On the other side.
“My immortal body has lost 59%!!!” the Heavy Arrow King was even more miserable, “My strength is now less than a tenth of what it was before! Even a peak King-level expert could now suppress me.”
Although the strongest Flame God Origin Crystal had a certain probability of killing an ultimate King-level expert, who didn’t have some means of survival? Special battle armors might not be able to reduce nine-tenths of the damage, which would be extraordinary, but reducing two or three tenths was still possible. In addition, there were plant lives, metal lives, and so on. These ultimate King-level experts almost all had such means.
Even so, their losses were still severe.
…
And in another direction.
Luo Feng, clad in Silver Armor and Silver Wings, held the Poison Shadow Blade in his hand, looking at the treasures left behind by the disintegrating Zi Zhong King—his world ring, weapons, armor, and the Zi Zhong. With a wave of his hand, he collected all of them into his own world ring.
“Thank you, Zi Zhong King,” Luo Feng said softly.
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, Luo Feng turned his head sharply. Tens of thousands of kilometers away, space trembled violently. Dozens of King-level experts from various races suddenly appeared. Immediately after, space in other directions also trembled. One group after another of King-level experts from the Yanji Continent began to arrive successively.
