Chapter 860: Rivers of Blade Light

The spatial blockade remained active. Luo Feng gripped the Blood Shadow War Blade, his silver wings fluttering slightly as he hovered midair, observing the eighteen figures swiftly closing in from a distance. Among these eighteen titled kings were two peak-level kings, six high-level kings, and ten entry-level kings. One after another, they charged into the blockade’s range.

“Poor alien beings, I’ll use you to establish my dominance,” Luo Feng murmured silently.

“Kill!”

“Kill this human!”

“Seize the treasure in the pagoda!” The eighteen titled kings were brimming with boundless killing intent, their aura soaring to the heavens, their oppressive might like a living hell, charging straight toward Luo Feng.

Luo Feng’s wings suddenly flapped with immense force, turning him into a phantom-like figure—swift and ghostly. Swish! Swish! Swish! He left behind distorted trails in the air as his blade light surged toward a high-ranking alien immortal at the King level. The high-ranking King-level immortal was engulfed in endless flames, its eyes encircled by fire, wielding a massive chain. As Luo Feng closed in, the immortal’s chain shot out directly, spiraling and coiling toward him.

Whoosh!

Luo Feng moved along a ghostly trajectory while simultaneously blocking the chain with his Venomous Shadow Warblade, producing a metallic clang. In the blink of an eye, he closed in on the immortal and unleashed the “Moonlight Strategy.” A dazzling silver river of blades slashed through the air, its brilliance lingering for a long time. The blade’s radiance had already sliced through the immortal’s outer armor, sweeping across its entire body.

In the mere instant it passed…

0.4 grams of Feimo venom remained…

The flame-enshrouded immortal suddenly widened its eyes in terror, then disintegrated into nothingness, perishing.

“What!”

“Dead?”

“How could a high-ranking titled king be killed instantly?” The onlooking alien titled kings were stunned. Although many of them had witnessed the Heavy Arrow King being slain into dormancy, first, the Heavy Arrow King was already in a weakened state at the time, leading them to believe he was on the verge of dormancy. Second, they had speculated it was related to the Cloudvine.

But this time, they had witnessed firsthand…

That blade river sliced through the body of the High-Level King, reducing it to ashes and utter annihilation. This was a High-Level King at its peak, yet the Cloudvine had not even made an appearance.

Under normal circumstances, a peak-level King could easily defeat an entry-level King, but effortlessly killing a high-level King was an extremely difficult feat unless one specialized in soul attacks. However, soul attacks were inherently complex and challenging. Their immense power made them incredibly difficult to master; generally, among dozens of Kings, there might occasionally be one who specialized in soul attacks.

(Note: “封王” is retained as is since it appears to be a specific term within the context, possibly referring to a rank or title in a cultivation or power system. If there’s an official or preferred English equivalent, it should be substituted accordingly.)

Luo Feng’s slash shocked the watching alien immortals and the other seventeen charging immortals, but the battle didn’t allow those seventeen immortals much time to think.

“The Feimo venom is indeed a drawback,” Luo Feng gathered the fallen immortal’s belongings while his wings flickered, propelling him toward another initial-stage titled warrior. “Just the Venom Shadow Battle Blade touching the chain consumed about 0.5 grams of venom… and piercing through the immortal’s armor used another 0.2 grams. Only the true 0.4 grams of venom actually penetrated the immortal’s body.”

The shortcomings of the Feimo venom were glaringly obvious.

Since it was solidified onto the blade, during the intense battles between titled kings—where weapons clashed and space shattered—the force far surpassed that of colliding stars. Such impacts naturally caused some of the venom on the blade to be lost. Hence, the most effective way to utilize the venom was as demonstrated when slaying the Purple Bell King.

First, shatter the opponent’s divine body, leaving them utterly defenseless.

Then, deliver a single slash into the shattered divine body—without armor or weapon to hinder, how convenient?

However, shattering the opponent’s divine body was extremely difficult.

“You get what you pay for; 300 billion Primordial Units for a kilogram, with decent power, these drawbacks are within acceptable limits,” Luo Feng effortlessly dodged the attack from the initial-stage Undying King, as a dazzling river of blades swept across the immortal’s head. Instantly, the initial-stage Undying King disintegrated into nothingness.

Perished!

“Killing a primary-level Feng Wang is truly effortless; their strength is inherently inferior to mine. Only 0.1 grams were consumed breaking through the armor, while the remaining 0.3 grams fully penetrated its body.”

“Kill!”

Luo Feng charged toward another high-level titled king.

Luo Feng’s blade light was indeed beautiful. As a self-created peak technique, in terms of skill application, even the Chaos Lord had praised it. Thus, one can imagine how pleasing it was to the eye. A blade river across the sky, an immortal perished… one after another, blade rivers illuminated the sky, immortal after immortal fell.

No one could resist. Each blade river signified the fall of a celestial king.

“Surround him.”

“Surround him.” The alien immortals battling Luo Feng tried to encircle him, but his speed was too erratic and phantom-like. Among the 18 immortals who attacked, including those already defeated, none could match Luo Feng’s pace. As his silver wings hummed, they left ghostly afterimages in their wake, allowing him to effortlessly evade other titled kings and charge straight toward his target.

Luo Feng chose his targets freely.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The blade rivers, both breathtaking and terrifying, were accompanied by screams of horror. These high-level and mid-level Undying Beings had no hope of being resurrected by a Universe Master in the future.

“Escape!”

“Quickly escape!”

“We can’t withstand his blade; this human’s blade is too terrifying.” The other titled kings immediately fled. However, even if they tried to escape, how could their speed compare to Luo Feng’s? As his silver wings vibrated, Luo Feng’s figure circled around the fleeing kings once more, and three blade rivers illuminated the sky.

Three more Feng Wangs perished… Finally, the last five alien Feng Wang immortals, terrified, fled into the watching immortal crowd.

In the void, Luo Feng gripped the Blood Shadow Saber, his gaze sweeping across the now 200-strong crowd of alien titled kings. The entire space fell into silence, every being stunned and horrified by the events that had just unfolded.

Eighteen kings charged forward, with only five surviving. Among these five surviving alien immortals were two peak kings, one high-ranking king, and two low-ranking kings.

The other thirteen feudal lords were completely annihilated!

Thirteen Kings Enfeoffed!

In the long history of the Yanji Continent battlefield, the probability of a King-level powerhouse perishing was inherently very low. Such a large-scale annihilation of thirteen King-level experts at once had not occurred for a very long time. The last time such a massive loss of King-level figures took place was hundreds of millions of years ago during the “Ghost Tomb King’s” rampage… which also earned the Ghost Tomb King his formidable reputation as a renowned powerhouse among countless species.

“Actually, he managed to continuously kill so many titled kings, among them some high-level titled kings whose strength was already very close to the peak of titled kings, yet they were still slaughtered.”

“His swordsmanship is truly exquisite, the laws seem to be interpreted beautifully. Moreover, that slash didn’t resemble spatial law, nor the law of metal, nor any other known law.” They were unaware that Luo Feng cultivated the Beast God Path, the fusion path of ‘space and metal.’

This was an exceedingly rare phenomenon in the universe, and none of these alien kings had ever encountered it before.

“What are you afraid of!”

“What are you all afraid of?” A short alien immortal at the pinnacle of titled king rank roared telepathically. “Haven’t you noticed that human only dares to kill initial-stage and mid-stage titled kings? He has never attacked a pinnacle-tier titled king? That’s because his strength is insufficient. Otherwise, why wouldn’t he make a move?”

“Burning Nong King, didn’t you see Blood Beast King fleeing and Heavy Arrow King being slain into dormancy?”

“Hmph, are you frightened by that? Most likely, that human also resorted to some ultimate methods to accomplish those feats, right? After all, it’s obvious to everyone that his true strength hasn’t reached the pinnacle of a King-level. Achieving such feats must have cost him an exorbitant price. Those methods might work once, but can they be used again? Besides, we’ve already assembled over 200 King-level immortals. Could it be… that all 200-plus of us are too intimidated to act against a single human?”

“If you’re so brave, you go first. Don’t just incite others to throw their lives away.”

The watching immortal crowd was divided in opinion.

Suddenly, a loud voice echoed through the void.

“Esteemed immortal warriors of the Mechanical Race faction.”

This voice caught the attention of all the alien immortals. It was the human powerhouse ‘Yang’ who had been surrounded. Now, Luo Feng, clad in silver armor with wings and wielding the Blood Shadow War Blade, smiled and said, “Don’t worry, everyone. How formidable are pinnacle kings? Do I have the means to easily eliminate them? I just need to pay a certain price. For example, I have this—”

Luo Feng flipped his hand, revealing a beautiful black crystal. Its surface had a crimson glow, and the entire crystal had 10081 facets, covered in law runes. All the alien immortals present felt a heart-pounding energy emanating from it.

“The Ultimate Flame God Core Crystal!”

“A single one costs a thousand billion Yu Lan units!”

“It has a certain chance to kill a pinnacle king and guarantees the death of a peak king!”

The over 200 alien kings present immediately became restless, with many immortals displaying fear in their eyes. This was the highest-grade Flame God Core Crystal ever created, its power beyond imagination. Should this Ultimate Flame God Core Crystal detonate, even if all 200-plus immortals pooled their strength to resist, they would likely face a 90% casualty rate! After all, none among them had reached the pinnacle of kingship.

Facing the more than 200 agitated alien kings, Luo Feng simply smiled. At the same time, he contacted the Chawu King through the Virtual Universe and also deactivated the “spatial blockade.”

This time, his intention was merely to establish dominance—to intimidate those beings and make them understand… that he was not someone to be trifled with!

As for going on a killing spree?

He only had four Ultimate Flame God Core Crystals in total, two of which had already been consumed, leaving just two. Moreover, if he were to almost completely annihilate the titled kings of the Mechanical Race faction on the Yanji Continent in one fell swoop, it would certainly provoke the fury of many super powerful beings from the Mechanical Race faction. Some peak-tier titled kings might join forces to attack him, and some powerhouses with strong backgrounds and hidden trump cards might also come after him.

That would be troublesome.

“Just intimidation is enough. Being overly aggressive without sufficient strength will invite trouble,” Luo Feng mused. “And my current strength is clearly insufficient to confront the strongest immortals of various alien races head-on.”

More than two hundred alien titled immortals encircled Luo Feng. When the black mist phantom, the ‘Chawu King,’ suddenly materialized beside Luo Feng, it was taken aback.

“So many alien kings?” King Chawu was stunned. “Yang, what’s happening?”

“Don’t worry.” Luo Feng held the Ultimate Flame God Core Crystal in his hand.

Seeing the Ultimate Flame God Core Crystal in Luo Feng’s hand, Chawu King was startled again. Then, glancing at the more than 200 alien immortals, he guessed the situation… these alien immortals were probably frightened by the Ultimate Flame God Core Crystal. He couldn’t help but admire Luo Feng inwardly: “This Yang is truly bold and crazy enough to provoke over 200 alien immortals; he must have some real ability.”

“Let’s go.” Luo Feng transmitted mentally.

“Alright.” Chawu King immediately took Luo Feng with him.

Whoosh.

They vanished into thin air, having already teleported away.

The over 200 spectators who witnessed the coronation saw Luo Feng and his companion teleport away, yet not a single one dared to intercept them. They were utterly intimidated by the overwhelming aura of the Ultimate Flame God Core Crystal.
