Volume Seven: Seven Hundred Epochs in Rain Ripple City

Time flies.

A Black Flying Boat has already begun its return journey, heading towards Rain Ripple City.

Inside the flying boat's front hall, Emperor Qing piloted the boat, observing and sensing the surroundings. Luo Feng sat to the side, his Imitation Life-Death Eye between his brows open, observing the vast expanse in all directions while also feeling somewhat wistful.

"It's been over seven hundred years since I came to Rain Ripple City, and this is my third hunt with Emperor Qing, but my 'Life-Death Path' still hasn't broken through to the God Emperor Early-Stage." Luo Feng sighed inwardly.

Seven hundred years is a very long time.

In the Origin Continent, it would have taken Luo Feng only five hundred epochs to grow from an Eternal True God to someone capable of killing Emperor Yuan.

"I reached the God Emperor Early-Stage with just a little cultivation on the paths of life and destruction. But to merge the two... is much more difficult." Luo Feng shook his head slightly. He had consumed some Auxiliary Cultivation Treasure, and he also had the 'Life-Death Eye' to view a large number of Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform materials. With the help of the 'Undying Heart', 'Life-Death Eye', and 'Star Tower', his cultivation could be described as progressing by leaps and bounds.

The Life-Death Path is too vast.

"Brother Luo Feng, I thought that after the third hunt, when I broke through to the God Emperor Mid-Stage, my strength would be comparable to yours." Emperor Qing, still quite excited, exclaimed, "Who would have thought that your strength has improved even further since the last hunt!"

"It's just creating a Movement Method," Luo Feng said.

"Your Movement Method is truly terrifying." Emperor Qing exclaimed. "I have just reached the God Emperor Mid-Stage. When the two of us joined forces, I never expected that we could actually kill a Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform at the God Emperor Mid-Stage."

Luo Feng smiled.

Yes.

In their third hunt, they killed a total of seven Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform at the God Emperor Early-Stage and one Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform at the God Emperor Mid-Stage.

"You fought that Flame Ferocious Beast head-on with your physical body and gained an overwhelming advantage. I was just covering for you, and you still managed to kill that Flame Ferocious Beast, which God Emperor Mid-Stage." Emperor Qing still clearly remembered that scene.

Luo Feng revealed his powerful Movement Method, his entire body covered in a layer of blood-red scales. Those blood-red scales possessed terrifying defensive capabilities. The Flame Ferocious Beast attacked Luo Feng relentlessly, but only a few cracks appeared on the scales on his body, which quickly healed.

With each strike from Luo Feng, the Flame Ferocious Beast suffered massive wounds. Moreover, Luo Feng dragged it with one hand while launching a frenzied attack with the other, and waves of blood surged forth, making it impossible for the Flame Ferocious Beast to escape.

Emperor Qing merely used the Sword Array as a supplementary attack, adding a few powerful blows to the Flame Ferocious Beast, and Luo Feng completely killed Flame Ferocious Beast.

"My physical body is only comparable to that of Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform in the God Emperor Mid-Stage," Luo Feng said with a smile.

Indeed, it's only about the same.

Because Luo Feng's techniques for killing enemies and protecting himself are more profound, and he also has two great treasures to help him, he was able to suppress the Flame Ferocious Beast in all aspects.

"It's terrifying that your physical body is almost on par with that of Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform at the God Emperor Mid-Stage," Emperor Qing said with emotion. "Their advantage lies in their physical body. Our advantage is our cultivation level. With your cultivation level, and by utilizing such a physical body... you could hunt down Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform at the God Emperor Mid-Stage in a one-on-one fight."

"A typical hunting team for God Emperor Mid-Stage consists of at least three experienced God Emperor Mid-Stage Enlightenment Seeker, and sometimes as many as six or seven," Emperor Qing said. "Your current strength is considered extremely high among God Emperor Mid-Stage."

Emperor Qing praised him, his feelings were complicated.

I thought I had broken through and become God Emperor Mid-Stage. I thought I should be entitled to a 50/50 split of the spoils this time.

"By the way, let's split the spoils of war three to seven," Emperor Qing said.

"Didn't we agree to split it 50/50?" Luo Feng asked, looking at him.

Both parties agreed on this before departure.

At that time, Luo Feng also borrowed some Primal Chaos Crystal from Emperor Qing and bought a secret treasure array diagram, which was also used to assist this physical body.

"I didn't expect you to be able to kill a Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform in the God Emperor Mid-Stage all by yourself," Emperor Qing said. "I got the better deal last time, but not this time! A 30/70 split is enough."

If it were a 20/80 split, then in terms of merit, Emperor Qing wouldn't be worth only one-fifth.

Emperor Qing felt that a 30/70 split, taking up 30%, was enough.

Looking into Emperor Qing's eyes, Luo Feng understood what the other was thinking and immediately smiled and nodded, "Okay, then let's split it 30/70."

Having lived in Rain Ripple City for over seven hundred epochs, Luo Feng had yet to reach the 'God Emperor Early-Stage' in the Path of Life Life-Death Path. However, his cultivation had deepened over time, and he had even created some Secret Method that combined life and death.

The strongest of these Secret Method is a physical body Secret Method created by using the 'Star Tower Blood-Colored Scale' as a template and drawing upon the powerful battle body secrets of the 'Undying Heart'.

It is known as the 'Undying Blood Sea Body'! This method is currently the highest achievement on Luo Feng's cultivation path.

With his pure physical body, he is comparable to Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform in the God Emperor Mid-Stage!

"I have only explored a few of the mysteries of the Star Tower Blood-Colored Scale and the Undying Heart, yet I have created such a method." Luo Feng knew very well, "When my realm advances further, this Movement Method can be further improved."

In the past, Movement Method relied on Formless and Faceless transformations.

Now, he has to rely entirely on his own enlightenment to understand the physical body! The Path of Life is about thoroughly studying this aspect, and Luo Feng's comprehension went smoothly.

"Luo Feng's growth rate is indeed terrifying." As Luo Feng's teammate, Emperor Qing clearly felt Luo Feng's growth speed. "He has only been in Rain Ripple City for seven hundred years, and at the beginning, his strength was slightly inferior to mine. Now, among the God Emperor Mid-Stage Enlightenment Seeker, he is considered to be at an extremely strong level. If he advances another step, wouldn't he be God Emperor Late-Stage Enlightenment Seeker?"

The ancestors of both countries were only at this level of strength.

"Is this the talent of the very top few in countless worlds?" Emperor Qing sighed inwardly. He was incredibly dazzling in the Origin Continent, but compared to the vast number of powerful individuals in the Source World and countless worlds, he could only be described as 'one in ten thousand'.

Within a single cycle of the Source World, Emperor Qing became God Emperor Mid-Stage Enlightenment Seeker, a truly astonishing feat. In Rain Ripple City, there were only tens of thousands with such strength, including many old men who had cultivated for countless years.

"In the Nine Rivers Holy World, I'm considered one in ten thousand. This Luo Feng is at least one in a hundred million," Emperor Qing thought to himself.

The Black Flying Boat continued its flight.

After Emperor Qing reached the God Emperor Mid-Stage in the Great Dao of Space, his ability to observe the void also greatly improved.

"Hmm?" Emperor Qing carefully sensed his surroundings. The world around him was normal. In the distance, clouds and mist rolled, and dust swirled in the earth.

"We've fallen into the formation," Emperor Qing transmitted to Luo Feng.

Luo Feng remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he became wary.

"I don't sense any danger." Luo Feng's Imitation Life-Death Eye was also observing.

"It's a very powerful void technique. The transition through the void is so natural that I only realized it when I was trapped in the formation. I'll turn around immediately and escape with all my might," Emperor Qing transmitted his voice.

The enemy didn't rush to attack; they patiently waited for them to penetrate deeper into the formation.

But if they turn and run, the enemy will probably attack immediately.

"Call out!"

The Black Flying Boat suddenly turned around and sped away at supersonic speed.

"Buzz." A massive phantom array appeared around the flying boat, covering its surface with a layer of sword light! The sword light enveloped the flying boat, increasing its escape speed significantly.

"They found out?"

"That's quite perceptive."

A colossal picture emerged from the void, its scope vast. The Black Flying Boat that Luo Feng and his companions were piloting was merely a small black dot within this enormous picture.

"You think you can escape after entering my treasure?" A cold laugh echoed from all directions.

"Tear".

Suddenly, two hands materialized above the Black Flying Boat.

These two enormous hands suddenly erupted, unleashing the mysteries of life and death, forcefully tearing a gap in the giant painting. The Black Flying Boat immediately escaped the painting along the gap.

"Hmm?" Five figures stood in different directions, watching the Black Flying Boat that had escaped.

"So it was some friends from the Strange Workshop."

The Black Flying Boat disappeared, and Luo Feng Emperor Qing appeared, treating each other with great courtesy.

Luo Feng also observed the five figures occupying positions in the distance. The three major raiding forces were the first to attempt to steal his treasures, the Insect Nest was the first, the last Plundering Team he encountered was Myriad Shadow Pavilion, and this time he encountered Strange Workshop.

I've dealt with all three major raiding forces.

"The leader of the Strange Workshop has a very special cultivation method. He calls himself the 'Lord of the Strange Realm,' and his methods are extremely ruthless. Most of his subordinates are the same." Luo Feng naturally knew some general information about the Strange Workshop.

"Emperor Qing, your Sword Array, and the large hand that just managed to escape the treasure map... it seems you two have both reached the God Emperor Mid-Stage." Five figures looked at Luo Feng and the others.

"Gentlemen, shall we proceed according to the rules?" Emperor Qing said.

The fact that our side managed to escape the ambush is already proof of our strength.

According to the rules, a fee is paid as a reward for the Plundering Team's hard work.

"Dealing with those two won't be easy," a tall figure transmitted. "Give them a fee and let them go."

"According to the intelligence, Emperor Qing and Luo Feng were both considered to be in the God Emperor Early-Stage. Even if they broke through to the God Emperor Mid-Stage, it was only recently, and their accumulation is not deep." A cold-looking man with a blood-red vertical line between his eyebrows transmitted his voice, "The five of us in the God Emperor Mid-Stage have been cooperating for a long time and are very experienced. If we join forces to deal with them... we have a very high chance of success."

"They are both from the Source World. Even if we destroy them, they might still have clones."

"Those who come from the Source World sometimes possess very special treasures. If we manage to snag even one, we'll have struck it rich," the sinister man transmitted telepathically.

Upon hearing this, the other four were all tempted.

Yes.

Compared to the free-range nature of the billions of worlds, the powerful beings of the Source World have obtained more resources, such as the Special Lifeform Remains, Innate Treasure, and even some treasures that can be exchanged in the Infinite Space, all of which are coveted by the powerful beings of the billions of worlds.

Luo Feng and Emperor Qing were on high alert.

"Rule?"

"There are no rules Rain Ripple City!" The sinister man sneered. "Today, both of you will die!"

As soon as he finished speaking...

Black rain appeared, covering an endless, vast area. Within this vast area, the enormous picture reappeared, once again enveloping Luo Feng and Emperor Qing.

"They're going to kill us!" Emperor Qing's expression changed drastically, and his eyes flashed with madness.

Not all robbers follow the rules.

Once the rules are disregarded, it becomes the naked Principle of the jungle!

"Emperor Qing, I'll take on four, you take on one!" Luo Feng's eyes were filled with icy killing intent.
