Chapter 1163: The Lord of Anyong and Luo Feng

In the abyssal depths of the Realm of Tumbling Peaks, two colossal figures were engaged in a frenetic battle.

The Lord of Anyong wielded a golden scepter, using it alternately as a long staff and a heavy hammer. Whether as a staff or hammer, the secret techniques he unleashed were all “Ultimate Secret Techniques.” And with every clash… the Lord of Anyong made no attempt to block the attacks of the Lord of Suishi, fully adopting a strategy of trading injuries!

“Fool.”

“All the masters of the First Cosmic Era are fools, and the Lord of Anyong is the greatest fool among fools.”

“Arrrrgh!”

The Lord of Suishi roared inwardly with pain and fury. He desperately tried to keep his distance, prolonging the intervals between each clash to extend the duration of the battle. However, within this “Ice-Sand Sea,” his speed was significantly slower, and in direct combat, he was clearly at a disadvantage, constantly being caught up to by the Lord of Anyong.

“Stonelord of the Primordial Cosmic Alliance, Suishi, rest in peace and become a sacrifice on my eternal path.” The Lord of Anyong spoke softly, yet his scepter seemed to tear through the cosmic space with a thunderous roar~~~~~ The golden scepter thrust straight forward, its head shaped like an oval sphere, with the tip of the oval forming a spout-like point!

Rip!

The scepter howled through the air, twisting space and time, easily evading the long lance swung by Suishi, and directly striking the chest of the Lord of Suishi.

Without any divine treasure weapon to intercept the blow, the full force of Anyong’s strike hit Suishi’s chest. Crackling sounds echoed as his armor vibrated, his chest jolted violently, and his divine body showed signs of fractures. He was sent hurtling backward without any resistance.

Of course, before he was sent flying, his long lance also struck Anyong.

“Boom!”

The strike produced an incredibly deep sound.

Although the Lord of Anyong was struck, his divine body was immediately affected, but quickly recovered. He merely paused briefly before continuing his assault.

“Fool.”

“A super fool. Why did I have to run into him! Even if I faced other masters from the First Cosmic Era, I wouldn’t be in such a dire situation.” As Suishi was thrown backward, he raged inwardly. In terms of strength, he was among the peak masters of the cosmos, comparable to the likes of Emperor Yan.

The Lord of Anyong wielded superior divine treasures and possessed a slightly stronger divine body, giving him an overall advantage over Suishi by one level.

Suishi was at the peak level.

Anyong was at the top tier, rivaling the human “Icepeak Lord”!

In theory, a single level difference shouldn’t pose a life-threatening danger… However, Anyong’s fighting style was “trading injuries,” purely relying on rapid consumption of divine bodies. Even masters of the same level would find this difficult to handle, let alone Suishi, who was a level below.

Earlier, when Luo Feng fought against the Lord of the Milky Way.

The Lord of the Milky Way’s ultimate move, “The River Under the Night,” still caused some damage to Luo Feng’s divine body even after using the “Star Tower” to block it. Without the ultimate divine treasure “Star Tower” to intercept first, but instead trading injuries… one move might have been enough to annihilate Luo Feng’s divine body!

Trading injuries…

It’s not something one can do at will. Suppose Suishi wielded his axe ability effectively, blocking Anyong’s scepter every time, naturally preventing Anyong from trading injuries.

But in reality, Anyong had the advantage in secret techniques, alternating between several ultimate secret techniques, sometimes wielding the scepter as a hammer, sometimes as a staff, sometimes as a spear… unpredictable and each move’s power was terrifying, making it impossible for Suishi to block most of them.

Daring to trade injuries…

One must also have enough confidence in their own defense and divine body. After all, while striking the opponent, the opponent is also striking back. If the divine body is too weak, one might end up exhausting oneself before defeating the opponent, which would be a joke.

“Suishi, the range covered by this Ice-Sand Sea is so vast that I dare not recklessly enter, and I cannot help you. You’ll have to rely on yourself.” A voice echoed through the waters.

“Lord Lang’an.”

The Lord of Suishi first felt joy, but quickly disappointment followed.

It’s useless. Lord Lang’an’s strength was comparable to his own. Currently, within the several light-years covered by the Ice-Sand Sea, instantaneous movement was impossible. It would take a long time to fly there, so he couldn’t rescue him. Even if he could fly here… Lord Lang’an’s strength wasn’t sufficient.

“No one can save you. Your divine body has less than 50% remaining. Ten more moves should be enough to kill you.” The Lord of Anyong held his scepter, smiling as he instantly appeared.

“Cursed!”

“Isn’t it just because of your armor and your clone divine body?” The Lord of Suishi roared inwardly. The reason he immediately fled upon seeing Anyong was precisely because he knew Anyong’s fighting style.

Anyong’s armor was a top-tier armor, said to be able to reduce attacks to one ten-thousandth of their original power!

Anyong’s divine body had a life gene level nearly ten thousand times higher!

Anyong carried a clone with him, a plant lifeform with a colossal divine body spanning millions of kilometers. Even when trading injuries, with the constant replenishment from the plant life’s massive clone… he could use this move with great ease.

“My divine body is also a special lifeform, with a height of 100,000 kilometers. If I can block his attacks with my weapon, it would take a very long time for him to wear me down. Trading injuries… obviously accelerates divine body consumption by hundreds or even thousands of times.” Despite his desperate efforts, the Lord of Suishi still took a hammer strike.

Boom~~~

His divine body was rapidly depleting: 42%——37%——31%——

“Accept your fate and die.” The Lord of Anyong smiled.

“No, no——” The Lord of Suishi tried every means possible, either dodging rapidly or desperately blocking with his weapon, but it was futile! The Lord of Anyong’s seamless transition between several secret techniques was unpredictable and left him unable to defend against them.

In the shallower regions of the waters, the Lord of Lang’an looked at the endless Ice-Sand Sea and could only sigh: “Suishi, only Lord Penggong and Lord Huntu might be able to arrive in time to save you. No one else can help.”

Boom!

A figure suddenly appeared beside him.

“Lord Lang’an.” A familiar voice sounded.

The Lord of Lang’an quickly turned his massive head and saw a figure clad in silver armor, a black-haired human.

“Luo Feng?” The Lord of Lang’an immediately felt disappointed and transmitted his voice, “Luo Feng, the Lord of Suishi is being pursued by the Lord of Anyong. Unless Lords Penggong and Huntu appear, we can do nothing to help. Don’t rush in either. Once you enter that Ice-Sand Sea, you’ll also be in danger.”

“I may not be a match for the Lord of Anyong, but I’m not afraid of him either.” The black-haired human replied directly.

“Hmm?” The Lord of Lang’an was somewhat taken aback.

Then——

A boundless golden light suddenly appeared in the endless waters. Accompanying this golden light, a violent golden flame roared outward, surging with power. With the enhancement of the “Golden Kingdom,” the golden flames swept forward, overwhelming and shattering the Ice-Sand Sea.

The Wings of Slaying Wu (Shi Wu Yuyi), the Flame Sand Cup… merged together!

Despair.

The Lord of Suishi was truly desperate now. His divine body had already been reduced to just 20% remaining, and his ability to resist had weakened significantly.

“Perish.”

The Lord of Anyong continued smiling as he advanced.

Suddenly——

The Lord of Anyong’s expression changed drastically.

“Who is it!!!” The Lord of Anyong roared in anger.

“Boom~~” As if heaven and earth were collapsing, the ‘Ice-Sand Sea,’ which had trapped Suishi like a quagmire, slowing his movements to an absurd degree, instantly disintegrated. The endless waters around him transformed into a ‘Sea of Flames.’ Under the cover of endless flames, Suishi’s face lit up with excitement.

“Lord Suishi, don’t you run now!” A voice echoed in his ears.

“This voice…” Suishi was stunned.

A familiar voice—it was none other than Luo Feng, the human he had scolded and disciplined before?

“Run now! Hurry!” The voice urged.

Zoo!

Lord Suishi fled immediately. As he ran, he felt an indescribable sense of relief. Previously, within the Ice-Sand Sea, he had felt as if he were trapped in a swamp. But now, the endless golden flames offered no resistance whatsoever. Instead, they continuously assisted him, propelling him forward and increasing his speed rapidly.

The fate of Lord Anyong was the opposite.

His speed sharply decreased!

“Who is it!” Lord Anyong roared furiously, “This is the Flame Sand Cup of the Primordial Universe’s Lord Yuan’ao. That golden light domain can control space and time. Who exactly are you!”

His divine power was clearly stronger than Luo Feng’s, yet he still suffered a disadvantage.

It was precisely because divine treasures and secret techniques had different requirements for divine power.

Both divine treasures and secret techniques had minimum thresholds and maximum limits.

For example, the technique ‘Microcosm,’ Luo Feng initially reached the threshold at the immortal level, and each use consumed at least 10% of his divine body. This was the minimum threshold.

However, as Luo Feng’s strength continued to improve… he would approach the maximum limit more closely! Suppose Luo Feng became a Cosmic Lord, and his divine body increased a hundredfold. Then, even the ultimate secret technique ‘Microcosm’ would not consume 10% of his divine body in one go! As those Cosmic Lords repeatedly used ultimate secret techniques, the consumption was also limited.

Ultimate secret techniques and supreme secret techniques naturally consumed different amounts of divine power instantly.

Divine treasures were the same.

They could only be activated once a certain strength threshold was reached.

The higher the strength, the stronger the divine treasure’s power, but there was still a limit to the divine treasure’s power. Hence, ‘ordinary divine treasures’ were abandoned by the Cosmic Lords, who coveted peak divine treasures or even supreme divine treasures.

Top-tier divine treasures.

Peak divine treasures.

Supreme divine treasures.

“If I possessed a supreme domain divine treasure, you wouldn’t have had the chance to escape.” Lord Anyong was enraged and immediately lifted the spatial blockade.

Swish!

Far away, the fleeing Lord Suishi was delighted and immediately teleported to the shallow waters.

“I want to see who it is.” Lord Anyong, relying on his spatial perception, naturally sensed that ‘Lord Suishi’ had merely teleported a few light-years away… so in a flash, Lord Anyong also immediately teleported there.

Luo Feng and Lord Lang’an were both within the waters when, suddenly, Lord Suishi appeared beside them. Upon seeing Luo Feng, Lord Suishi felt somewhat awkward: “Luo——”

“Not now,” Luo Feng’s expression slightly changed.

Because another figure appeared not far away… a humanoid being wielding a scepter, radiating a hazy white light, with rings of white light circling his head, within which was a ghostly image of a single eye—the Lord of Anyong.

The Lord of Anyong’s eyes were filled with rage as he stared at Luo Feng, who had spread his wings.

“Human? I’ve never seen you before!” The Lord of Anyong roared angrily.

“You’ll know who I am soon enough.”

Luo Feng glanced at the Lord of Anyong.

Swish!

Luo Feng and the other two immediately teleported. This time, they teleported directly out of the water, fleeing far away.

“Human, the silver-winged, black-haired human!” The Lord of Anyong let out a sharp, frenzied roar, his howl filled with fury.
