The sacred land, the streets outside the cultivation residence where Luo Feng and his companions dwelled were completely blocked. A vast number of Golden-Horned Clansmen sat cross-legged along the streets. Directly opposite the entrance to Luo Feng’s residence sat a young man clad in purple battle armor and possessing dark skin—’Beiqiu’. Beiqiu sat with eyes closed, meditating silently.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Suddenly, a streak of light shot out from within the cultivation residence, swiftly flying into the distance.
“They’ve flown away.”
“Human Luo Feng is among them.”
“He actually dared to flee?”
Tens of thousands of Golden-Horned clansmen quickly erupted into an uproar, rising to their feet one after another. They pointed toward the distant horizon, watching the streak of light vanish into the horizon, each filled with intense fury.
The cross-legged Beiqiu also opened his eyes, gazing coldly at the scene. His eyes seemed to burn with flames as he muttered lowly, “Human Luo Feng… a coward beyond measure!!!”
Boom!
Beiqiu also transformed into a streak of light, flying toward the Elder Divine Palace. His younger brother and other followers quickly followed.
…
When Luo Feng stirred ripples within the Holy City of the Golden-Horned Clan’s Rasua World, in a distant region of the Savage Universe Nation’s territory, a dark and silent expanse of space stretched endlessly. No stars or planets existed here, only occasional interstellar dust drifting by. Within the spatial rift corresponding to this starry sky…
A magnificent and vast divine realm existed.
An endless golden land stretched far and wide. Within a grassland and forest region lived many humans, alongside numerous technologically advanced structures. Cities built with advanced technology were scattered throughout, with nearly a thousand billion humans spread across hundreds of cities. Each city housed a towering statue of a god.
Countless people came to worship the gods.
The human-inhabited area was merely a tiny portion of this divine realm.
Approximately thirty million kilometers away from the human settlements stood towering mountains reaching into the clouds. These mountains exceeded a million kilometers in height. At the very peak of the mountains stood a grand temple radiating brilliant golden light. The temple was one hundred thousand kilometers tall, filled with many figures, clearly indicating the presence of numerous individuals.
Inside the temple.
“Zizi!”
“Roar!”
Massive, differently-shaped warrior bugs roamed the halls of the temple. Occasionally, golden warrior bugs (immortal warrior bugs) could be seen. Besides the warrior bugs, many humans clad in white robes, golden robes, or armor also moved about. These humans and warrior bugs often crossed paths but remained peaceful toward one another.
At the highest level of the temple.
A massive, crater-like bug hive, over ten kilometers tall, stood at the center of the uppermost level. Around it gathered countless golden warrior bugs, numbering no less than ten thousand.
“Master!”
Three humans clad in golden robes, surrounded by a large number of warrior bugs, respectfully bowed.
“Calling me. What for?” A soft voice, like a peerless beauty whispering in one’s ear, echoed throughout the grand hall.
“Master.” The leading golden-robed human respectfully replied, “One of our immortal deities embedded within the Golden-Horned Clan’s Rasua World has just sent a message. The human prodigy Luo Feng is currently in the Holy City of the Rasua World.”
“No.9?” The soft voice questioned.
“Yes.”
The leading golden-robed human continued respectfully, “There is another matter to report, Master. No.9 Luo Feng’s progress has been astonishing. He publicly defeated Beichuang, a ninth-stage genius of the Golden-Horned Clan at Domain Lord level, in the Holy City’s martial arena. According to human classification standards, Beichuang’s comprehension of laws was strong enough to pass the ninth level of the Heaven-Piercing Bridge. Luo Feng, during his first qualification, barely managed to pass the eighth level.”
“Do you have the video?” The soft voice asked.
“The battle was public, so there are many videos. Our immortal deity embedded within the Golden-Horned Clan’s Rasua World has also sent the video.” The golden-robed human immediately pointed toward the air, and a projection screen appeared, displaying the entire battle between Luo Feng and Beichuang.
The battle was one-sided, with Beichuang completely dominating Luo Feng.
In the end, Luo Feng unleashed his power and defeated Beichuang.
After watching the video.
“Within the Human Virtual Universe Company, among the cosmic-level prodigies, only one has reached the eighth level of the Heaven-Piercing Bridge.” The golden-robed human respectfully stated, “Yet Luo Feng, within just a few decades, has surpassed even the strongest among previous cosmic-level prodigies in terms of law comprehension. At this rate, he will likely still rank among the top in the Domain Lord qualification battle hundreds of years from now. His rate of progress is truly terrifying. In human history, only the most exceptional prodigies, appearing once every several ten thousand eons or even hundreds of thousands of eons, could match this level.”
“Hmm.” The soft voice issued an order, “Upgrade his ranking. List him as No.3. Other targets will shift their rankings accordingly.”
“Yes.” The golden-robed human respectfully complied.
“Also, issue orders to the immortal deities embedded in the Rasua World.” The soft voice continued, “Instruct one of them to attempt an assassination. Sacrificing a regular immortal deity puppet is not a big deal if it can kill Luo Feng. However, our Bug Race has very few agents embedded in the Golden-Horned Clan’s Rasua World. At most, only one immortal deity can be exposed. No more sacrifices are allowed. If the assassination fails, wait patiently for the next opportunity.”
“Yes.” The golden-robed human respectfully replied, “I will immediately issue orders to the branch members in the Qianwu Universe Nation and also to our members within the Golden-Horned Clan.”
“Go.”
The soft voice said.
The three golden-robed humans simultaneously bowed and then retreated together.
…
At the edge of the Qianwu Universe Nation’s territory, within the Rasua World of the Cosmic Secret Realm.
In the Holy City.
Inside a quiet residence.
“Assassinate Luo Feng at all costs?” A Golden-Horned immortal deity clad in stone-gray battle armor sat there, murmuring to himself, “At all costs… at all costs…”
Swish!
His eyes suddenly opened, his crimson pupils coldly staring ahead.
“Luo Feng?” The immortal deity whispered.
“Elder, Elder!” A Golden-Horned youth rushed in, shouting, “Just received the news. That human prodigy Luo Feng didn’t even fight Beiqiu. He simply flew away from his cultivation residence directly to the Elder Divine Palace. This Luo Feng is truly a coward, not daring to fight when faced with the mighty Beiqiu.” The youth clenched his teeth in anger.
The stone-gray armored man issued a low command, “You may leave now.”
“Yes, Elder.” The youth respectfully complied.
“Elder Divine Palace?”
The stone-gray armored man transformed into a phantom, swiftly flying out of his residence, heading directly toward the Elder Divine Palace.
…
The human territory is vast. The Bug Race and humanity, the two supreme cosmic races, have been at war for over countless eons. The Bug Race has long embedded spies within every Universe Nation and even every star region of the human domain. The Bug Race’s soul invasion and soul control abilities are terrifyingly powerful, even immortal deities of humanity cannot escape their control.
Conversely,
The Golden-Horned Clan is entirely gathered within the Rasua World. Normally, the Bug Race has little opportunity to infiltrate. Only when certain Golden-Horned Clan warriors assist humans in battles do the Bug Race occasionally get a chance to quickly perform a soul invasion on a Golden-Horned warrior. Then, allowing that warrior to return with his clan.
Only in this way can a pawn be embedded.
The Rasua World is vast and boundless, yet the Bug Race has embedded very few agents, resulting in extremely slow and limited intelligence. Only after Luo Feng caused such a massive commotion in the Holy City did one of these ‘pawns’ notice and come to the Holy City, finally confirming a series of events regarding Luo Feng.
The efficiency was undoubtedly extremely low.
…
Luo Feng’s group landed at the foot of the Elder Divine Palace mountain range and then proceeded toward the Elder Divine Palace.
At this moment, Luo Feng was completely unaware that even in such a secret location of the Golden-Horned Clan, there might be assassins from other races. After all, the Golden-Horned Clan’s living area was unknown to many immortal deities among humanity. Even many immortal deities were unaware that humans had an ‘appended race’ known as the Golden-Horned Clan.
Since even within humanity so few knew of them, it was certainly extremely difficult for other races to embed spies.
Despite this, Luo Feng remained cautious.
After all, currently serving as an external inspector, assassinations by other races were very common. This was one of the reasons why Luo Feng did not want to expose his excessively powerful abilities. Defeating Beichuang had already attracted attention from other races. If he were to defeat Beiqiu, those races would likely spare no expense to eliminate him.
“Senior Sifanqi.” Luo Feng said, “You should take the lead. If the Elder is willing to see me, I will enter.”
“Alright.”
Senior Sifanqi easily entered the Elder Divine Palace, while Luo Feng and the others remained outside the palace gates. The guards stationed at the palace entrance curiously observed Luo Feng and his companions, as it was extremely rare to see humans here.
“Prince Luo Feng, the Elder wishes to see you. Please come in.” Senior Sifanqi’s voice echoed in Luo Feng’s ear.
“Oh?”
Luo Feng’s eyes lit up. He immediately instructed, “Everyone else stay here. Dylan, come with me.”
Luo Feng, accompanied by Dylan, directly entered the main gate of the Elder Divine Palace. The palace guards had clearly received orders and did not attempt to stop the two.
…
“The Rasua World has extremely low temperatures, and the Elder Divine Palace is even colder.” As Luo Feng walked through the palace, it felt like he was traversing the icy caverns of the Demon Sound Mountain. The palace guards, servants, and disciples of the Elder Divine Palace lineage were frequently seen along the way. After walking for a while, they arrived at a quiet grand hall.
This grand hall was a place the servants, disciples, and palace guards dared not approach.
Two immortal deities, a man and a woman, stood at the hall’s entrance.
“Human Luo Feng, the Elder is waiting for you inside.” The male immortal deity said.
“Hmm.”
Luo Feng nodded and, with Dylan, stepped across the threshold into the vast hall.
The moment they entered, it felt like stepping into another dimension. Everything outside was cut off, leaving only the cold and solemn grand hall. Inside stood dozens of immortal deities, each appearing quite respectful. Atop the hall sat an elderly man wearing an Elder’s crown, draped in a starry robe, his chest partially exposed.
Sitting there, the space around him revolved centered on him.
His gaze… filled with infinite majesty, making it impossible for anyone to harbor even the slightest thought of resistance.
“Honored Elder of the Golden-Horned Clan, I pay my respects.” Luo Feng deeply bowed, showing utmost respect. Dylan followed suit beside him.
For existences as great as the Cosmic Sovereigns, respect was only fitting.
