Volume Seven: Now I'm Confident

"Don't worry, we will conduct a fair bidding process," the Space-Time Old Devil said with a smile. "Whoever bids the highest, you will get it."

"The five of us here are all quite accomplished," the Ten Thousand Laws Tower Lord said with a smile.

All five of them are powerful figures from the Source World, and all of them possess the Clone Technique. Even in Rain Ripple City, they would be considered elders.

Having cultivated for countless years, their accumulated wealth was naturally astonishing. For example, those who served as elders received a fixed allowance each era. The Ten Thousand Laws Tower Lord were able to break through realms and travel to other Source World; their treasures and riches were unimaginable.

"Luo Feng, we are from the same Source World. If the prices are equal, you should favor us," said the Thunder Ancestor.

"Luo Feng, it's your decision." The Yan Feng Ancestor also looked at Luo Feng.

Three Alien Races and two natives—all five of them coveted this Innate Treasure.

"As you all know, this Innate Treasure is of great significance to me," Luo Feng said with a smile and a shake of his head. "I have no intention of selling it."

"What a pity."

The five people present were somewhat disappointed.

"You've also collected two samples of Special Lifeform Remains. Do you plan to sell one of them?" the Space-Time Old Devil pressed.

The core of Luo Feng's cultivation and comprehension lies in the 'Star Tower Blood-Colored Scale' and the 'Life-Death Eye'. After all, the Life-Death Eye and Death is a secret treasure refined from the complete corpse of a World-Level Primal Chaos Lifeform form.

In reality, it's already quite impressive that the God Emperors can use a 'World-Level Primal Chaos Lifeform material' as the core of their cultivation.

If you collect a few copies, study and practice them, you might be able to break free from your Cage!

The two materials Luo Feng collected on the Origin Continent were a dark golden horn from the Dream Domain and a section of black bone. Both were selected by Luo Feng using his Life-Death Eye to observe the Dream Domain and the Sky Pillar Realm, and were extremely valuable.

"Not for sale." Luo Feng grinned.

"In the early stages of cultivation, you are weak and lack resources," the Thunder Ancestor advised from the side. "Selling a Special Lifeform Remains will make your cultivation much smoother immediately."

Luo Feng shook his head. "Everyone, there's no need to persuade me."

The five people present were quite helpless. It was too difficult to obtain the Special Lifeform Remains or top-notch Innate Treasure! Having reached Luo Feng's level of strength and seen the outside world in Rain Ripple City, he would be even less likely to sell them easily.

Therefore, the ancestors of the two countries trained emperors, Three Alien Races also trained other idle god-kings, so that these descendants could help them collect resources.

"No rush," the Space-Time Old Devil laughed. "Whenever you urgently need a transaction, you can contact me anytime."

"When trading outside, you worry about competition and disputes. Trading on the Origin Continent ... is absolutely safe," said the Thunder Ancestor.

They also have enough patience for such a long period of cultivation.

They knew very well that Luo Feng might encounter difficulties one day and have to sell his treasures.

"Haha, good. If we're going to make a deal, I'll definitely contact you all." Luo Feng was very polite and immediately raised his glass.

That evening, after the gathering ended, Luo Feng, carrying the two treasures 'Undying Heart' and 'Palm World', quietly arrived at the Ice Valley. He then used the lake to teleport to the Nine Rivers Holy World.

At the foot of the sacred Holy Mountain in the Nine Rivers Holy World, some Xing Zhe were waiting for the official flying boat.

"This time, I'll fly alone to Rain Ripple City." Luo Feng didn't wait for the official flying boat that only comes once in a century. Instead, he flipped his hand and took out a drop of cyan water, which transformed into the shape of a flying boat.

Immediately, Luo Feng piloted the 'Water Drop Flying Boat' and left the Holy Mountain.

This Water Drop Flying Boat was traded to Luo Feng by the Old Space-Time Old Devil at a loss.

"Back then, the Space-Time Old Devil chose the armor and Abyss Pearl left behind by Emperor Yuan after his death, which was probably only worth 20,000 Primal Chaos Crystal. But this Water Drop Flying Boat... is ultimately a flying boat at the God Emperor Late-Stage level, worth about 100,000 Primal Chaos Crystal. He did lose quite a bit." Luo Feng stood in the flying boat hall, looking out at the outside world.

Of course, Luo Feng also understood that for the Space-Time Old Devil, the transportation cost was the highest when he World-Breaking Teleportation to the Origin Continent with a large number of treasures.

A Water Drop Flying Boat was probably just one of the inconspicuous treasures he carried.

"I don't like taking advantage of others. I'll find an opportunity to replenish the supplies for that Space-Time Old Devil," Luo Feng thought.

Call out!

This Water Drop Flying Boat is a purely life-type flying artifact, its greatest strength being the ability to conceal one's life force. In terms of flight speed and concealment, however, it is far inferior to void-type flying artifacts.

"This flying boat is too ordinary. Fortunately, with my level of cultivation, I can perfectly unleash the power of this Water Drop Flying Boat. Furthermore, with the assistance of the 'Imitation Life-Death Eye,' the flow of life and death can be even more effective, and the concealment of its aura is even stronger," Luo Feng thought.

The fact that this spacecraft can perform at such an exceptional level only means that it is somewhat weak.

"I need to get a better flying boat this time when I return to Rain Ripple City," Luo Feng thought.

Call!

The airship concealed its presence completely throughout the journey, flying with utmost caution.

Luo Feng's 'Imitation Life-Death Eye' has a much wider observation range than before. Even among the elders of Rain Ripple City, few can match Luo Feng in terms of observation and spying. He can detect Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform from extremely far distances and avoid them from afar.

"Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform can be encountered everywhere." It took Luo Feng a full twelve days to travel to reach Rain Ripple City. "I found a total of 39 Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform along the way."

Luo Feng didn't dare to make a move even once! Because it wasn't in the usual hunting area.

"The Nine Rivers Holy World is mostly the territory of Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform. Xing Zhe can only rely on the thirty-five cities and hunt around them. If things go wrong, they can always escape back to the city." Luo Feng was well aware of this.

Those Xing Zhe must strictly adhere to the hunting grounds. This is a lesson learned from the deaths of numerous Xing Zhe.

"Rain Ripple City!"

Luo Feng only relaxed after piloting the Water Drop Flying Boat and flying into the city gate.

Luo Feng had already visited many shops throughout Rain Ripple City, and he knew exactly which shops sold which goods, the prices, and the reputation of the merchants.

"Brother Luo Feng." Luo Feng arrived at a shop, and a woman in red in charge of the shop immediately greeted Luo Feng warmly.

"Brother Luo Feng recently fought against the Strange Workshop team, two against five, and not only did he win, but he also killed that Ku Mo God Emperor. Now the whole city is talking about your fame, Brother Luo Feng," the woman in red said enthusiastically.

"I don't like killing, but they insisted on courting death, so there was nothing I could do," Luo Feng said calmly.

"I admire you," the woman in red said with a smile. "Come on in, have a seat."

For regular guests, a standard waiter is sufficient to greet them.

According to the information Luo Feng has now made public, his strength has already ranked among the top 2000 in Rain Ripple City. Such a powerful person would naturally be personally entertained by the owner of the merchant's house.

"He managed to kill the Strange Workshop Sect's raiders?"

"This person must be extraordinary."

"I wonder when I will become a God Emperor."

Some of the waiters in the shop whispered to each other. They couldn't afford information about the God Emperor, but they knew that as one of the three major 'theft and plunder' forces, the Strange Workshop had very strong Plundering Team.

Upon entering an elegant pavilion, Luo Feng and the woman in red sat down.

"I've come today to buy a formation diagram," Luo Feng said, pointing to one of the array diagrams among the Weapon Secret Treasure floating outside the pavilion. The diagram depicted a colorful and beautiful world in the center, with three special characters.

Luo Feng didn't recognize the characters, but he could sense the will contained within them and knew that they meant 'Mystic Azure Sky'.

"Oh?" The woman in red looked at the array diagram in surprise. "The Mystic Azure Sky Extinction Formation Diagram? That requires 8.5 million Primal Chaos Crystal."

The Profound Azure Sky Extinction Diagram, a secret treasure array diagram at the Half Primal Chaos level!

Whether Half Primal Chaos level contains one Dao or two Daos, its value will naturally differ.

Those containing one Dao are easier to wield, cheaper, and suitable for a wider range of Xing Zhe. Those containing two Daos are more difficult to master, more expensive, and applicable to a smaller group.

"One price, 8 million Primal Chaos Crystal. I'm also planning to buy a flying boat." Luo Feng already knew about their discounts. "I'll take that 'Grand Void Dark Pupil Ship' too. Let's make it 10 million Primal Chaos Crystal together with the two treasures."

The woman in red smiled at Luo Feng. Normally, a 5% discount was the maximum. This time, the price she negotiated was clearly even lower than 5%.

"Alright, alright, let's round it up." The woman in red smiled. "Brother Luo Feng, you'll have to patronize our business more often in the future."

"Okay." Luo Feng nodded in satisfaction.

After the last hunt and the spoils from killing Ku Mo, he only had a little over ten million Primal Chaos Crystal left. After this expense, he was poor again.

"I need to buy Half Primal Chaos level secret treasure now. In the future, there will be fewer and fewer secret treasures suitable for me." Luo Feng shook his head slightly. There was no other way. Without relying on any secret treasures, he was already considered quite strong among the God Emperor Late-Stage Enlightenment Seeker.

With the Undying Heart and the Palm World in hand, only Half Primal Chaos level treasure can increase one's strength.

"With the 'Profound Azure Sky Extinction Diagram,' I can now set up an array in my Boundless Blood Sea," Luo Feng thought.

While the Undying Heart enhances the 'Undying Blood Sea Body', it only makes the 'Undying Blood Sea Body' extremely strong in direct combat; it cannot form a large-scale domain! Relying solely on its own abilities to create a domain is still somewhat weak.

With the help of this array, the power of the Blood Sea Domain can be increased several times.

"This 'Grand Void Dark Pupil Ship' is a vessel containing the mysteries of life and death, and it is quite compatible with my 'Imitation Life-Death Eye'." Luo Feng paid ten million Primal Chaos Crystal with satisfaction in exchange for these two treasures.

Emperor Qing, who was in seclusion, received a message from Luo Feng and immediately came out of seclusion.

"Brother Luo Feng, you've come out of seclusion so quickly?" Emperor Qing asked in surprise. "Didn't I say I was going to be in seclusion for a long time? We've offended the Strange Workshop, and without a certain level of confidence, it's not suitable for us to go out in the short term."

Luo Feng smiled slightly, "I'm confident."

"Are you confident?" Emperor Qing was taken aback. He was certain that only 360 epochs had passed since this seclusion. Emperor Qing pressed on, "We have offended the deputy head of the Strange Workshop, Sky Crane Elder. Are you confident in dealing with Sky Crane Elder?"

Luo Feng nodded.

Emperor Qing felt his brain buzzing and was somewhat dazed! He realized what Luo Feng's nod meant.

"You've already reached the God Emperor Late-Stage Enlightenment Seeker level?" Emperor Qing looked at Luo Feng, unable to believe it.

A single 'Life-Death Path in the God Emperor Early-Stage' is comparable to that of God Emperor Late-Stage Enlightenment Seeker.

Not to mention that his paths of life and destruction are both at the God Emperor Mid-Stage! Not to mention, he also possesses the two great treasures, the Undying Heart and the Palm World! Luo Feng certainly has the confidence to deal with Sky Crane Elder.

"This period of seclusion can be considered a breakthrough," Luo Feng said with a smile.

"I... I... you... you..." Emperor Qing was stunned and didn't know what to say.

He watched Luo Feng grow up right before his eyes.

How could he, a God Emperor Enlightenment Seeker stuck at the God Emperor Mid-Stage for so long and finally broke through, bear this?

"I've long heard that the world's top few have terrifyingly high talents." Emperor Qing looked at Luo Feng. "Now I've witnessed it firsthand."

Luo Feng smiled.

He truly didn't find it difficult! In the Original Universe, before reaching the immortal stage, every step he took was solid. Each step reached an inconceivable limit at the same level, even exceeding it. That's why he cultivated Perfect Divine Body, and why his Mind Will was so high.

On the Origin Continent, his foundation at every level was also extremely profound. This exceptionally deep foundation allowed him to obtain treasures such as the Star Tower and the Life-Death Eye, which in turn made his cultivation even smoother.

"Reaching the Half Primal Chaos level is not difficult at all." Luo Feng had discussed this with Yuan.

In the eyes of Senior Yuan and his ilk, groping one's way to the Half Primal Chaos in the dark is relatively easy. Powerful beings like this are everywhere in the Dark Holy World!

The real challenge lies in breaking free from the Cage.

"In any case, it is my honor to be able to team up with Brother Luo Feng for hunting," Emperor Qing with emotion.

"I'm going hunting, do you want to come?" Luo Feng asked.

"Yes, of course I'll go!" Emperor Qing replied immediately.
