Chapter 1473: The Final Gambit of the Boundary Beasts

The chaotic streams of chaos energy drifted about, while the land continuously condensed, extended, and expanded. On this vast land stood an exquisite palace—that was the palace of Zuo Shanke.

“It’s almost been twenty days now,” Zuo Shanke sat leisurely, a crystalline table before him holding a wine pot. He elegantly held a wine cup in his hand.

It had nearly been twenty days since he arrived in Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos, and he had been waiting all this time for the moment when the Boundary Beasts would devour Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos. The reason for the long wait… Actually, it had taken Luo Feng a very short time to fly to the micro-cosmos region of the first Cycle Era. The main delay was due to the Boundary Beasts fighting and devouring each other for a long time.

The Boundary Beasts originally required several trillion eons to evolve into the final king. Even with the process accelerated, they still needed some time to digest after each consumption. Moreover, crossing stages—like from third to fourth, and fourth to fifth—required significant time.

“Boom~~”

An invisible might instantly spread throughout the entire microcosm.

“Hmm?” Zuo Shanke’s expression changed abruptly. “Has the devouring begun?”

When Boundary Beasts consumed the essence, normally the lives within the micro-cosmos couldn’t sense it. However, this time, with 450,000 Boundary Beasts simultaneously devouring, the resulting violent tremors in space-time affected the entire micro-cosmos.

Inside Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos essence:

“Whoosh~~”

Ten thousand planets revolved around a central void, which continuously rotated and absorbed energy. The immense suction force caused chaotic streams of energy in the void outside the micro-cosmos to form a massive vortex.

Suddenly—

Another powerful force pierced through space and directly descended into the essence, beginning to forcefully devour the essence energy.

“It’s here.” A divine projection emerged from the essence, which was none other than Luo Feng’s divine projection.

“Block it!” Luo Feng’s willpower bolstered the essence as he desperately resisted.

“Rumble~~”

The entire essence trembled.

The ten thousand planets, which had been rotating calmly, suddenly flared with intense light and began spinning wildly. The central vortex of void generated a colossal suction force, causing the 450,000 devouring forces to collapse instantly.

It was like a tug-of-war!

Luo Feng was pulling inward, while the 450,000 Boundary Beasts were pulling outward!

Yet upon contact, the Boundary Beast side collapsed entirely.

“What!” Luo Feng was stunned.

“How is this possible!”

The 450,000 Boundary Beasts surrounding Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos were equally astonished.

Both sides were shocked.

No one had expected such an outcome.

“Did it really succeed so easily?” Luo Feng carefully sensed his own essence. Ten thousand planets revolved around the void, everything converging into the vortex. At that moment, Luo Feng suddenly understood.

“The Ten Thousand Heavens, the Beginning of the One?”

“I see now.” Luo Feng instantly grasped the mystery.

Ordinary True Gods, even those from the Dandonghe lineage or the successive champions of the Jin God King, their cosmic structures, although wondrous, still had flaws. Facing the Boundary Beasts’ devouring, they were destined to be consumed. Their willpower could only slow the process… but Luo Feng’s was different.

The structure of the Beginning of the One and the Ten Thousand Heavens came from Luo Feng’s insight into the most profound life gene hierarchy patterns of ten thousand life forms, leading to his ultimate realization.

It shared the same principle as the ten thousand life gene hierarchy patterns!

They shared a common characteristic—completeness, no leakage!

Luo Feng’s divine power could even transform into Boundary Beast power. His micro-cosmos, even if violently shaken or if planets within the essence shattered, could rapidly regenerate the Ten Thousand Heavens as long as the “Beginning of the One” remained. It was eternal, the source of all, perfectly complete and without flaw. This was a micro-cosmos inherently perfect from its birth. Since it was complete and without flaw, no amount of devouring could succeed.

In contrast, other micro-cosmoses were not born complete and without flaw, hence they could be devoured.

This was also why other True Gods’ micro-cosmoses were only one hundred million light-years in diameter, while Luo Feng’s was one billion light-years.

Perhaps Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos was not as vast as those of Void True Gods or Eternal True Gods. However, once Luo Feng became a Void True God or Eternal True God, his would undoubtedly surpass theirs. Because this was an inherently complete and flawless structure!

In fact, the evolution of Boundary Beasts was also progressing toward becoming a perfect ultimate life form. When the final king was born, the last Boundary Beast king would, like Luo Feng, be able to transform Boundary Beast power into divine power, easily change its aura and manipulate everything, and possess many innate abilities, such as reproduction and devouring.

The devouring power of a Boundary Beast king would be truly terrifying.

Even Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos or the Primordial Universe itself could not resist it!

Because the Boundary Beast king represented true “destruction.” The Primordial Universe would have to self-destruct and revert to its essence to resist. Although Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos had potential, it was significantly inferior in innate abilities and thus still vulnerable to suppression.

However!

That was only against the Boundary Beast king. These ordinary Boundary Beasts had not even completed their evolution into perfect life forms. Relying merely on their innate abilities, they were naturally unable to find any weakness in Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos, which had already achieved perfection and flawlessness! They couldn’t devour even a shred!

Luo Feng was first stunned, then ecstatic.

The 450,000 Boundary Beasts outside were also incredulous. They had always considered themselves superior, believing their birth to be extraordinarily noble… thinking that micro-cosmoses could only be devoured by them. Yet today, they had bitten into an iron plate and shattered their teeth, gaining nothing.

“Luofeng?” Zuo Shanke, who had teleported out of the palace, looked serious as he directly addressed the chaotic streams of energy in the distance, “Do you need my protection?”

Zuo Shanke had a feeling that the massive disturbance was likely due to the Boundary Beasts attempting to devour the micro-cosmos.

“No worries, Master. Those Boundary Beasts can’t do anything to me,” Luo Feng’s voice came through.

“Can’t do anything?” Zuo Shanke was astonished.

“They can devour other True Gods’ micro-cosmoses, but not mine,” Luo Feng replied.

Zuo Shanke was astounded, then a smile gradually spread across his face. Indeed, even he had never heard of anyone whose micro-cosmos could reach a diameter of one billion light-years at the True God stage. Such uniqueness must have led to this outcome.

“Haha, then you don’t need me anymore,” Zuo Shanke laughed heartily and immediately departed from Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos.

In the distant region of the first Cycle Era’s micro-cosmos, within a void, Luo Feng was locked in battle with the fifth-stage Boundary Beast, Qiya.

Qiya was unleashing “Destruction,” desperately trying to survive!

“Beidi was only fifth-stage, probably not even at the peak of fifth-stage. I’m stronger than him. Maybe I can survive,” Qiya unleashed Destruction with all his might. Suddenly, a message reached him.

He was stunned.

Could it be…?

Could it really be…

That devouring Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos had failed? That they couldn’t devour Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos?

“Hmph.” Facing Qiya’s shock, Luo Feng, holding the Blood Shadow Blade, relentlessly attacked.

Luo Feng was eager to fight a fifth-stage Boundary Beast.

Because fifth-stage Boundary Beasts could unleash “Destruction.” Last time, he had only seen Beidi use it twice, each time giving him an opportunity to glimpse the “Essence of Destruction”… This time, Qiya, in his frenzy, had already used it three times, giving Luo Feng significant gains.

“I can’t escape it even with Destruction,” Boundary Beast Qiya immediately prepared to use the Boundary Light Passage.

At that moment—

As Luo Feng’s Blood Shadow Blade struck, a single droplet silently and instantly invaded Qiya’s body. It was none other than Luo Feng’s most skilled and powerful soul enslavement technique, the “Three Star Realm.” Previously, he had used this very technique to enslave Morosha. The success of such enslavement heavily depended on the soul and willpower!

From first to sixth stage, Boundary Beasts were all True God level. Though they evolved, their souls didn’t develop significantly. Mainly, it was their “Boundary” within that improved, along with their comprehension, allowing them to unleash increasingly sophisticated combat techniques, such as the Boundary Light Passage, Boundary Light Domain, Destruction, and more!

Qiya’s soul was somewhat stronger than Morosha’s, but not by much.

As for willpower?

Both were top-tier Boundary Beasts. In this intense, rapid evolution, although Qiya’s “Boundary” within was growing stronger, it hadn’t significantly enhanced his willpower. Just like Luo Feng… it was only when he comprehended the ten-thousandfold life gene hierarchy and the mysteries of cosmic operation that his willpower transformed to the “Eternal True God Limit.” As for the transition from Cosmic Lord to True God itself, his willpower hadn’t improved at all.

“Theoretically, if I can enslave Morosha, I can also enslave Qiya,” Luo Feng thought inwardly.

“What is this…”

Qiya’s two solitary eyes first showed confusion, followed by painful resistance. “Explode!” He detonated himself with a thunderous boom.

Seizing that fleeting moment of clarity, Boundary Beast Qiya self-destructed.

He knew that if he hesitated any longer, he would be completely overwhelmed. Boundary Beast Qiya didn’t have time to use the Boundary Light Passage to escape. He chose the only path to freedom left—self-destruction!

“Failed to enslave him?” Luo Feng frowned.

Back then, in the Boundary Beast nest, he had to act cautiously, so he didn’t enslave any Boundary Beasts.

But this time, he intended to wreak havoc.

If he could enslave a fifth-stage Boundary Beast, he could have it split off with him to kill even more Boundary Beasts.

“This Qiya, like Morosha and Beidi, was already among the elite. His willpower was naturally extremely strong,” Luo Feng shook his head. “Perhaps if I target one with slightly weaker willpower, I could succeed.”

Swoosh!

Luo Feng immediately vanished in a flash, teleporting to hunt down the next Boundary Beast.

Boundary Beast Qiya’s death didn’t stir the least bit of reaction within the Boundary Beast herd because the entire Boundary Beast race was stunned and enraged by the news that Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos was inedible.

“Initiate the final Sacrifice Plan!”

“The Sacrifice Plan!”

“This is a disgrace to the Boundary Beasts!”

“The final plan!”

When the Boundary Beasts initially fled from their nests, they had prepared plans. The final Sacrifice Plan was the cruelest of all, requiring many Boundary Beasts to sacrifice themselves. It was extremely unfair, yet the Boundary Beasts believed it was the only plan that could definitely produce a sixth-stage Boundary Beast! To implement this plan was considered a disgrace among the noble Boundary Beasts, but now, they had no choice but to do so.

They couldn’t harm Luo Feng.

They couldn’t devour Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos either. Luo Feng could freely slaughter and enslave them.

They had to make one final gamble! Produce a sixth-stage Boundary Beast. According to the Supreme Rules’ restrictions, this would force Morosha to appear and allow the final king to be born! Once the Boundary Beast king was born… Luo Feng would surely die! This was the cruel plan that many Boundary Beasts were reluctant to execute, choosing it only as a last resort—the Sacrifice Plan!

“Go!”

“Go!”

“Go!”

The over 450,000 Boundary Beasts, originally surrounding Luo Feng’s micro-cosmos, suddenly teleported in all directions, quickly fleeing far away.
