Volume Six: Confrontation
Luo Feng was also surprised.
Having explored the Deep Layer Area of the Dream Domain for over a hundred epochs, he had never encountered any competitors! This most precious 'Thousand Dream Fruit' was about to ripen, yet it had already attracted five powerful individuals, including himself, who were waiting to obtain it.
"That makes sense. I only explore once per era, and each time I only explore about ten spaces." Luo Feng thought, "There are very few people in the entire Origin Continent who are qualified to explore the Deep Layer Area! The probability of encountering one is indeed extremely low."
Luo Feng remained completely calm even after being discovered by the invisible spatial domain.
He had made ample preparations in order to compete for the Thousand Dream Fruit.
Currently, all the clones within the Dream Domain are equivalent to 12 times the Perfect Divine Body Energy Reserve! And this time... Luo Feng came to compete for the Thousand Dream Fruit, and the super-powerful clone he sent out was a full 10 times the energy of Perfect Divine Body.
In terms of physical strength alone, it is dozens of times stronger than the clone that fought against the Dark Heaven Venerable.
Luo Feng believed that his physical body was comparable to that of an 'Ultimate Realm Lifeform'.
"Um?"
Emperor Lord Jiu Feng, Emperor Lord Wu, the Gray-Robed Figure, and the Purple-Robed Woman all saw the figure in Black Robe and a golden mask.
"Black Robe, golden mask? This aura..."
"Is it that mysterious powerhouse who killed the Heaven Kun Country Lord?"
These four individuals were all at the pinnacle of existence on the Origin Continent, so they naturally knew about the 'Black-Robed Golden-Masked Expert'. This mysterious powerhouse had only made a move once! Yet, he used either soul techniques or Mind Will techniques to instantly annihilate the Heaven Kun Country Lord, preventing the Heaven Kun Country Lord from reincarnating.
"Hahaha, this is truly remarkable!" Emperor Lord Jiu Feng laughed. "I thought that the Thousand Dream Fruit would only attract two or three competitors. Who would have thought that five powerful figures would gather here today!"
"Indeed interesting." Di Wu observed the gray-robed figure, the purple-robed woman, and Luo Feng. "Three mysterious experts! There aren't many idle cultivators with such strength. It's truly rare to have three of them here."
As the emperors of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, they naturally possessed arrogance and looked down on idle cultivators.
"Emperor Lord Wu, Emperor Lord Jiu Feng, your Yan Feng Ancient Nation's emperors dare not carry any precious Weapon Secret Treasure in the Deep Layer Area of the Dream Domain, yet they are still so arrogant?" The Gray-Robed Figure chuckled softly.
Yes.
Including Luo Feng, none of the five present who came to the depths of the Dream Domain carried any 'treasures surpassing the God-King level'. After all, the Deep Layer Area the Dream Domain are fraught with unpredictable dangers, and losing a clone is insignificant. But losing a precious treasure would be a regret that would be too late.
"This Black Robe Expert, is it you who killed Heaven Kun?" Emperor Lord Wu looked at Luo Feng.
"It's me," Luo Feng nodded.
"Have we met before?" Emperor Lord Wu looked at Luo Feng. The Gray-Robed Figure and the Purple-Robed Woman were opponents he had encountered before, and he had some guesses about their true identities, but he had never fought the Black-Robed Golden-Masked Expert.
Luo Feng smiled at Emperor Lord Wu and Emperor Lord Jiu Feng: "If the two emperors are willing to give up the Thousand Dream Fruit, we can sit down and have a good chat."
"Hahaha..." Emperor Lord Jiu Feng laughed loudly, "This Black Robe Expert is skilled in soul techniques or Mind Will techniques. Even someone like the Heaven Kun Country Lord, who has reached the God King Ultimate Realm, is still powerless against him. Even if we can withstand such techniques, our strength will be greatly reduced. In my opinion, the four of us should join forces to drive away this Black Robe Expert first."
Emperor Lord Wu also looked at the Gray-Robed Figure and the Purple-Robed Woman: "Let's drive away the Black Robe Expert first, and then the four of us can fight it out."
"Hmph, the three of us are idle cultivators, while you two are emperors of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom. The three of us naturally have to join forces, otherwise all the good treasures will fall into your hands." The gray-robed figure said without hesitation.
"The three of us should join forces," the Purple-Robed Woman said.
Luo Feng, dressed in Black Robe and wearing a gold mask, also nodded.
"Fine."
Emperor Lord Jiu Feng glanced at the Thousand Dream Fruit in the distance, "The Thousand Dream Fruit will ripen soon. Before it ripens, we will have already fought a battle."
Emperor Lord Jiu Feng Emperor Lord Wu remained relatively calm. For them, this rare treasure could indeed help them repay part of their enormous debt to their clan, but even if they didn't obtain it, it wouldn't have a significant impact on them.
On the contrary, the three idle cultivators were more eager for the Thousand Dream Fruit.
"Make your move," Emperor Lord Wu commanded coldly.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~
His body instantly transformed into a black river, a mighty torrent sweeping across the surrounding area, instantly engulfing a vast expanse. Luo Feng and his companions either had to flee far away, abandoning the rare treasure, or they would be swept away by this black river.
"Hiss hiss hiss." Luo Feng stood still, letting the black river entwine around him, as if it were giant pythons coiling around him, frantically eroding his body.
"Emperor Lord Wu also cultivates the Life Origin Great Path, but he is Ultimate Realm Lifeform! This avatar sent to the Dream Domain, I wonder how much of his true body it occupies." Luo Feng thought, "The binding force is insignificant to me! On the contrary, this corrosive power..."
The Black River's waters possess terrifying corrosive power, but Luo Feng's colossal World Lifeform, with ten times the energy of Perfect Divine Body, completely resisted it. The rate of erosion was slower than the rate of recovery of Luo Feng's massive body.
"Emperor Lord Wu, is this all you've got?" The Purple-Robed Woman chuckled softly. Despite the Black River's erosion, she didn't bother to dodge, standing there letting the waters wash over her without fear.
"Emperor Lord Wu, this clone of yours only accounts for about 30% of your true form; its power is too weak." The Gray-Robed Figure stood there, his form indistinct and somewhat translucent. Eighty or ninety percent of the black water's corrosive power had been neutralized; the remaining trace of its corrosive power had no effect on the opponent.
"Town!"
The rolling black river water was formed by three giant hands, which powerfully crushed Luo Feng and his two companions.
Luo Feng and the other two no longer cared. 'Emperor Lord Wu,' who was purely pursuing the Path of Life, was relatively weak in terms of offensive power without his super-powerful secret treasure.
On the contrary, Emperor Lord Jiu Feng, who follows the 'Path of the Origin of Space', is the opponent we should be most wary of.
"This clone of Emperor Lord Jiu Feng, who travels through space, may have a complete body and a complete soul." Luo Feng was quite wary.
"Make your move."
The Gray-Robed Figure transmitted a message.
The Gray-Robed Figure, the Purple-Robed Woman, and Luo Feng all attacked almost simultaneously, targeting Emperor Lord Jiu Feng at the same time.
"Destroy!" Emperor Lord Jiu Feng also made a move instantly, but all his power was directed at Luo Feng! In the eyes of Emperor Lord Jiu Feng Emperor Lord Wu, the Black-Robed Golden-Masked Expert was the one they feared the most.
Naturally, we need to deal with this troublesome issue first.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~"
A breeze is blowing.
This wind is the wind of space! It blows through every part of the space where Luo Feng is, penetrating even the smallest components of Luo Feng's physical body.
This gust of wind...
Even the finest structures of space were shattering. Every basic life structure of Luo Feng's vast World Lifeform was attacked by 'space shattering'. However, each of Luo Feng's life units was a perfect combination of the twenty-four world prototypes. Even with minor damage, it quickly recovered under the endless vitality.
"What?" Emperor Lord Jiu Feng was very surprised.
Some idle cultivators can rival emperors and monarchs. However, in terms of physical strength alone, very few can compare to ultimate-level life forms.
There are only a handful of them, such as the WanJie Kingdom Master, the World Beast, and the Fire Ancestor.
"My Extinguishing Wind of Annihilation couldn't even destroy his physical body? It feels like he's no less Ultimate Realm Lifeform." Emperor Lord Jiu Feng's heart sank. "With such a strong physical body, this is troublesome."
"Boom!"
As soon as Emperor Lord Jiu Feng's move failed, he felt as if his soul was being torn apart.
The terrifying attacks tore apart Emperor Lord Jiu Feng's soul time and time again.
"Zong Fu!" Emperor Lord Jiu Feng stared painfully at the Gray-Robed Figure. "It's you?"
Emperor Lord Jiu Feng naturally recognized this familiar move... It was the former strongest minister of the Yan Feng Ancient Nation, and now the leader of the largest rebel force in the Yan Feng Ancient Nation — the Mother River Master, 'God King Zong Fu'.
Furthermore, an invisible force infiltrated Emperor Lord Jiu Feng's body, eroding this Ultimate Realm Lifeform, and his physical body began to break apart.
This invisible force is also eroding the mighty Black River of Emperor Lord Wu.
"Hissing sounds" The Black River water was rapidly diminishing under the erosion. It should be known that even a Life Great Path Ultimate Realm Lifeform of the Great Dao of Life, with only 30% of its body, possesses terrifying vitality.
However, the water level of the Heihe River is rapidly decreasing, and it is clearly at a disadvantage.
"Not good."
Emperor Lord Jiu Feng and Emperor Lord Wu felt terrifying pressure.
"Emperor Lord Wu, this Purple-Robed Woman is at the Ultimate Realm! She might even be the Eastern Domain Progenitor."
"The Eastern Domain Progenitor should have more than this strength."
"Foolish! The Eastern Domain Progenitor was merely deliberately concealing his strength; this rare treasure is equally attractive to her."
They both knew something was wrong.
Without any extraordinary secret treasures, the Ultimate Realm beings who have mastered the complete Great Dao naturally surpass the Emperors in all aspects of their power.
If the Eastern Domain Progenitor were to take action and bully the weak, the situation would be even worse.
"Only a mere 30% of the Ultimate Realm Lifeform dare to come out," the Purple-Robed Woman sneered.
Luo Feng stood there, and suddenly two golden beams shot out from his eyes.
These two golden lights seemed to be the very first rays of World Splitting, and they instantly struck Emperor Lord Jiu Feng's body. Emperor Lord Jiu Feng's body was already greatly weakened by the attacks of the God King Zong Fu and the invisible power of the Purple-Robed Woman. At this moment, the two golden lights pierced through Emperor Lord Jiu Feng's body in an instant.
These two golden beams were as fast as lightning, impossible to dodge, and pierced through Emperor Lord Jiu Feng 'Emperor Lord Jiu Feng body back and forth, causing his body to collapse even faster.
This golden light is the "Sky Light Silver Shuttle," one of the "Six Branch Fusion Technique" of the Life-Death Great Path that Luo Feng comprehended.
Luo Feng was attacked by Six Paths silver shuttles in the Darkness Area of Dream Domain. While comprehending the Star Tower, he created a similar move. He can instantly release two 'Sky Light Silver Shuttle' to kill enemies in combination.
"Let's go." Emperor Lord Jiu Feng was, after all, a complete body and soul. Even though he was surrounded by three powerful figures, his body still had 70% of its energy reserves.
On the contrary, the Black River of Emperor Lord Wu has been mostly eroded away.
"Call."
In an instant, Emperor Lord Jiu Feng, carrying the waters of the Black River, left this Deep Layer Area space with a single thought.
Emperor Lord Jiu Feng was naturally skilled in spatial escape. If he wanted to leave, Luo Feng and the others couldn't stop him.
Emperor Lord Jiu Feng fled with Emperor Lord Wu, leaving only Luo Feng and the other two around.
"The Gray-Robed Figure is the Mother River Master, 'God King Zong Fu'." Luo Feng knew how troublesome this person was.
Long ago, the God King Zong Fu was able to rival the first emperor of the Yan Feng Ancient Nation, Emperor Yan, with a super-powerful secret treasure. However, Emperor Yan could not tolerate him and spared no effort to kill Zong Fu in order to seize Zong Fu treasure.
This also made the two sides irreconcilable enemies. The God King Zong Fu was too terrifying. He killed more than a dozen Imperial Clan God Kings of the Yan Feng Ancient Nation. Even the Yan Feng Ancestor could not tolerate it and personally intervened.
The Yan Feng Ancestor destroyed all of its clones and resurrection vessels. Yet, in the end, the God King Zong Fu still lived.
He cultivates the path of life and cause and effect, and his ability to preserve his life is unbelievably strong.
As time goes by, the accumulation of knowledge naturally deepens.
"The other one... seems even more powerful." Luo Feng looked at the Purple-Robed Woman.
"God King Zong Fu, and this Black Robe Expert," the Purple-Robed Woman smiled at her two companions, "Now only the three of us remain! It seems we must settle our differences!"
