Volume Seven: God Emperor Late-Stage Prey
Call!
The Black Flying Boat moved swiftly forward, passing through the thick clouds, and getting further and further away from Rain Ripple City.
"According to the map, we have already entered the Elder Hunting Area." Emperor Qing became nervous, and he did his best to explore the vast void around him. "In this area, my strength is too weak, and I will have to rely on you, Brother Luo Feng."
"Rest assured."
Luo Feng opened the Imitation Life-Death Eye between his brows, and the 'Mystic Azure Sky Extinction Formation Diagram' within his body was also in operation. Centered on the flying boat, a vast area around it was faintly covered by an array domain to prevent being ambushed.
"Brother Luo Feng, you know the rules of the hunt," Emperor Qing said in a low voice. "I'll just say one thing: when you come to the Elder Hunting Area for the first time, you must remain on high alert!"
The hunting experience and rules are all available for information sale in Rain Ripple City, so Luo Feng naturally knew them.
However, to truly internalize someone else's experience, one still needs to go through repeated trials and tribulations.
"Shhh~~~"
As Luo Feng and his companion slowly steered the Black Flying Boat forward, a phantom creature resembling a centipede was slowly moving around. This phantom creature completely concealed itself, and even Luo Feng's 'Imitation Life-Death Eye' failed to detect it.
It is called 'Blood Demon E Li Si'.
The Blood Demon E Li Si clan is a relatively large and infamous race among Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform, known for its stealth and extreme venom! Xing Zhe are extremely wary of it.
"Shhh~~~" The Blood Demon E Li Si slowly swam around, staring at the Black Flying Boat in the distance. It noticed that there was an array field around the flying boat.
"Two Xing Zhe dare to venture deep into this place? But judging from their appearance, they are not elders of Rain Ripple City." Blood Demon E Li Si observed. As a Blood Demon at the God Emperor Late-Stage, Blood Demon E Li Si held a considerable position within its clan and knew some information about the elders of Rain Ripple City.
The intelligence it obtained was quite outdated.
However, under normal circumstances, the elders of Rain Ripple City have only undergone minor changes over the long years.
"Let's give it a try." After observing for a moment, Blood Demon E Li Si decided not to wait any longer.
Delay will only lead to unforeseen changes.
In time, other members of the same clan might discover these two Xing Zhe, and these two pieces of 'meat' might be eaten by their own clan.
Xing Zhe hunt down Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform, but similarly, these Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform also crave to hunt down these Xing Zhe! Bloodline evolution, increased strength, and complete regaining of freedom—as long as they kill enough Xing Zhe, they can gain all sorts of benefits.
"This is my prey!" The Blood Demon E Li Si lunged forward—
At this moment, Luo Feng Emperor Qing were piloting the Black Flying Boat, maintaining the highest level of vigilance. Luo Feng was also constantly maintaining the operation of the 'Mystic Azure Sky Extinction Formation Diagram' within his body, preserving the array's domain.
But they did not find the Blood Demon E Li Si.
"Tear--"
A terrifying wave instantly pierced through the Mystic Azure Sky array domain, causing Luo Feng's expression to change drastically.
"Not good!" Luo Feng only noticed a twisted creature with densely packed claws, like a centipede, after the powerful enemy had penetrated the array's domain. Just sensing it made Luo Feng feel nauseous, dizzy, and as if the world was turning upside down.
"It's the Blood Demon E Li Si!"
Luo Feng instantly recognized the other party's identity, and at the same time, his Undying Blood Sea Body erupted completely.
Rumble~~~~
The vast, Boundless Blood Sea surged outwards in all directions, also impacting the 'Blood Demon E Li Si' that was attacking! The Boundless Blood Sea operated with the 'Mystic Azure Sky Extinction Formation Diagram' at its core, its terrifying power forcefully blocking the Blood Demon E Li Si's attack.
"I'll put you away first!" Luo Feng unleashed his Undying Blood Sea Body, also to protect Emperor Qing.
The Emperor Qing was now teetering on the brink of collapse.
The Blood Demon E Li Si is poisonous simply by looking at it.
If it is touched, the consequences will be hundreds or thousands of times more severe.
"Hoo." While transmitting his voice, Luo Feng also put away the Emperor Qing.
The poison of this 'Blood Demon E Li Si' is too terrifying. Even God Emperor Late-Stage Enlightenment Seeker has attained enlightenment could be directly poisoned to death if his physical body is weak! Emperor Qing must not even touch it.
Only after putting away the Emperor Qing could Luo Feng focus all his efforts on fighting the Blood Demon E Li Si.
"This is extremely poisonous." Luo Feng blocked the Blood Demon E Li Si with his Boundless Blood Sea, but he also touched the opponent. The terrifying poison contained in the Blood Demon E Li Si naturally entered the sea of blood and spread wildly.
"Die!" The Blood Demon E Li Si was extremely confident in its own deadly poison. No matter how lowly they were, they were still Primal Chaos Lifeform of the Primordial Chaos, born to break free from their Cage! Its poison was even more terrifying.
Sometimes, with the help of potent poison, one can repel or even kill God Emperor Late-Stage Enlightenment Seeker.
"Whoosh—"
Luo Feng's Undying Blood Sea Body was enormous enough that he couldn't care less about anything else at the moment and swung his claw back.
The enormous, furry claw was simply too big! It covered a large area with a single strike, and the Blood Demon E Li Si had nowhere to dodge, being torn apart by the furry claw.
The moment it was touched and torn apart, the Blood Demon E Li Si naturally split into billions of tiny 'centipedes' that merged into the Boundless Blood Sea.
"One strike shattered my true form!" Blood Demon E Li Si was startled by the claw attack. "So fierce?"
The power of that claw was too terrifying to withstand; it could only split apart completely.
"Hiss hiss hiss~~~~"
The world has turned upside down!
A vast sea of blood!
"Mystic Azure Sky!"
Luo Feng's Mystic Azure Sky Extinction Formation Diagram operated at full power, Boundless Blood Sea covered a vast area, enveloping all the 'billions of super-small centipedes' within it and taking them all into the Blood Sea Eye.
Within the Blood Sea Eye, the array was in operation, with spatial Cage imprisoning billions of ultra-small 'Blood Demon E Li Si'.
Countless tiny Blood Demon E Li Si, launched a frenzied counterattack, causing the spatial Cage to tremble and shatter.
"The Undying Heart, Suppress!"
Suddenly, a Cyan Treasure Pearl appeared. Guided by the Cyan Treasure Pearl, countless veins extended from it into Luo Feng's body and spread into the endless sea of blood.
With this layer of veins spreading everywhere, the power of the Boundless Blood Sea increased several times over, and its toughness increased dozens of times, giving it a touch of immortal charm.
The Blood Sea Eye, as the core of the 'Undying Blood Sea Body', has now merged into the Cyan Treasure Pearl.
With the blessing of the 'Undying Heart', the stability of the Blood Sea Eye soared, and the stability of the spatial Cage also soared, forcibly suppressing billions of ultra-small Blood Demon E Li Si.
"Hiss~~"
Inside the Blood Sea Eye, rolling waves of blood coalesced into a furry claw. This furry claw possessed terrifying power, crushingly grabbing at the tiny Blood Demon E Li Si.
One claw, two claws, three claws... each time, a large number of Blood Demon E Li Si were pulverized.
"No, no!"
"How is that possible? He's not even on the list of elders of Rain Ripple City, how can he be this strong?"
The billions of tiny Blood Demon E Li Si were constantly being crushed. They were struggling to resist, but they couldn't escape. Moreover, the power of the 'Undying Blood Sea Body', which had increased dramatically, was too terrifying when it used its furry claws. With just six claws, Luo Feng tore apart the hidden 'Blood Demon E Li Si' Life Core. Once the Life Core was broken, all the Blood Demon E Li Si naturally fused together and revealed their true form.
"I..."
Even at the moment of its death, the Blood Demon E Li Si refused to believe that its path of growth would end today!
"Finally, I killed it." Looking at the enormous corpse of the Blood Demon E Li Si, Luo Feng breathed a sigh of relief. "It took me both of my great treasures to kill it."
Even with his Palm World alone, he couldn't contain the Blood Demon E Li Si.
Only the 'Blood Sea Undying Body', empowered by Undying Heart, can completely suppress the Blood Demon E Li Si. Only then can one have a chance to severely injure or even kill the opponent with a single claw strike.
"I've killed a Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform at the God Emperor Late-Stage," Luo Feng said with a sigh.
At the elder level, only a few can kill Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform in the God Emperor Late-Stage in a one-on-one fight.
Luo Feng was also aware that he had relied on the power of the treasure.
Having lost the treasures 'Undying Heart' and 'Palm World', his strength would plummet. He would have no chance against the Blood Demon E Li Si.
"Huh? It's dead, but the poison is still seeping in?"
Luo Feng frowned.
Within the Boundless Blood Sea, the 'Undying Heart' provides protection, greatly slowing down the rate of poison's corrosive effects.
But it only slows it down! The area affected by the highly toxic substance is constantly expanding, without decreasing at all.
"This poison cannot be eliminated." Luo Feng didn't care about anything else. In a moment of thought, he separated all the 'energy' that had come into contact with the Blood Demon E Li Si, and abandoned all of it that was contaminated with the poison.
Luo Feng completely separated out about one-twentieth of the vast Boundless Blood Sea.
Highly toxic and corrosive!
Luo Feng watched helplessly as the one-twentieth portion of the blood sea that had been separated was quickly and completely eroded away, leaving only a twisted, enormous mass of deadly poison.
This highly toxic substance is entirely dark black, shaped like a sphere about three thousand kilometers in diameter, constantly twisting and tumbling, containing countless thread-like substances.
Suddenly, the sphere formed by the twisting of countless threads rapidly collapsed and shrank, eventually condensing into a fist-sized 'black liquid'.
"I can't do anything about it." Luo Feng was shocked; he dared not touch the deadly poison directly.
This is what makes the Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform special.
Ultimately, they are beings born to break free from the Cage, and there will be some incomprehensible aspects to them.
Some of them are hidden, and Xing Zhe cannot see them at all.
Some even managed to breach Rain Ripple City's layers of defenses and infiltrate the city directly. In every era, Xing Zhe within the city were killed by these infiltrating, Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform.
Luo Feng lives in the Inner City and has not been there long enough to encounter such a thing yet.
"The E Li Si's Poison can fetch a high price; let's store it away for now." Luo Feng immediately used a storage treasure to collect the fist-sized black liquid.
The E Li Si's Poison must be stored with utmost care, and must not come into contact with any living thing. Once touched, it will immediately seep into and corrode the body. As long as one remains within its Cage, one's own energy cannot extinguish this deadly poison.
"Hurry up and leave, don't linger." Luo Feng instantly transformed into a blood-red shadow, silently merging into the world and disappearing.
The first rule of the hunt: After killing Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform, leave the battlefield immediately.
After disappearing for a while...
Luo Feng then released the Black Flying Boat and also Emperor Qing.
Although Emperor Qing was still feeling a little uncomfortable, he was able to remain completely conscious.
"It escaped?" Emperor Qing looked around and quickly reminded him, "The Blood Demon E Li Si has a strong tracking ability. Since its attack failed, it will probably follow us in secret, and may even summon its companions."
"Don't worry, it's dead," Luo Feng said.
Emperor Qing was taken aback.
"The Blood Demon E Li Si is very troublesome. I used all my strength and it was not easy to kill it," Luo Feng said. "Now we are quite far away from the battlefield and it is relatively safe. Let's continue hunting."
