Episode Nine: Mind-Consciousness System (Part 2)
"Please God Emperor Yuhe for me." Luo Feng sent a message. He now knew the information about the top-level experts in the entire Dark Holy World. After all, there were only about a thousand known experts, God Emperor Yuhe was one of them.
"By the way, Brother Luo Feng," God Emperor Boshiu reminded him, "Didn't you plan to buy powerful life-and-death type treasures at a high price? I've also spread the word that there are now five God Emperors in Chengfeng City willing to sell life-and-death type treasures. They can come to visit at any time, so... when you meet God Emperor Yuhe, why don't you also invite these five of them to meet us?"
"Alright, thank you, Brother Boshiu." Luo Feng was quite tempted.
Relying solely on the Undying Heart and the Palm World makes my combat methods too simplistic. If I possessed a few more powerful secret treasures, their combined use could significantly enhance my strength.
Moreover, these treasures contain higher-level mysteries that are beneficial to cultivation.
"It's nothing."
Boshiu didn't care at all. His three companions had gone to Rain Ripple City and talked with the Hall Master Yuan Xiang! So they knew Luo Feng very well and knew that Luo Feng had indeed grown to this level in a very short time! The three of them had secretly discussed following God Emperor Luo Feng for a period of time.
As long as God Emperor Luo Feng doesn't break free of his Cage, they will patiently continue to follow him!
The three of them did not share any information about Luo Feng, and the Hall Master Yuan Xiang also did not share this news after completely returning to the Source World.
******
In a small cave abode on the outskirts of Chengfeng City, a man in a pale white robe, known as 'God Emperor Jixiu', received a message.
"Demonic Emperor Luo Feng summoned me? He wants to buy my creation-destruction type treasure?" Ji Xiu revealed a look of delight.
Call.
He dared not hesitate and immediately left the small cave abode.
Ji Xiu looked up at the sky, where black snowflakes drifted down, chilling to the bone. But Ji Xiu was filled with excitement and joy. "Finally, I've encountered a peak being willing to buy my creation-destruction type secret treasure! Perhaps, I can make a fortune from this!"
These powerful treasures command different prices depending on the recipient. The price offered varies greatly depending on whether the recipient is a God Emperor Late-Stage Enlightenment Seeker, a Half Primal Chaos Enlightenment Seeker.
God Emperor Late-Stage Enlightenment Seeker are notoriously stingy, typically negotiating around two to three billion Primal Chaos Crystal, with only minor price increases. They're simply too poor! A few billion Primal Chaos Crystal represents the culmination of their entire life savings. Even the most outstanding among them, those who have mastered two God Emperor Late-Stage Daos, like the Master of Insect Nest ... even a few billion Primal Chaos Crystal requires careful consideration!
Those Half Primal Chaos Enlightenment Seeker, such as Hall Master Wei Yang and Hall Master Gai Tao, may have accumulated hundreds of billions of Primal Chaos Crystal over a long period of time. Naturally, they would also need to calculate the price of a powerful secret treasure.
Only those at the pinnacle can be truly 'generous'. They are willing to pay a premium for the treasures they need.
"I hope that this God Emperor Luo Feng will offer more for his so-called high-priced acquisition," Ji Xiu thought.
A little bit leaked between the fingers of God Emperor Luo Feng.
It might be all that Ji Xiu had painstakingly accumulated over countless years.
"Call."
Ji Xiu flew through a world of black ice and snow, finally arriving at the core area of Chengfeng City. Each cave abode here was much larger, and the array formations set up were even more terrifying.
"Hurry up and come in, you're the last one to arrive."
"God Emperor Luo Feng is currently meeting with God Emperor Yuhe. The five of you will wait here for a while."
Upon arriving at the cave abode of the God Emperor Boshiu, Ji Xiu was led by a puppet servant to a side hall, where several other God Emperors had also gathered.
Ji Xiu glanced at it.
Of the five God Emperors waiting there, three were at the God Emperor Late-Stage Enlightenment Seeker level and the other two were at the Half Primal Chaos Enlightenment Seeker level. They were all waiting patiently without showing the slightest impatience.
Luo Feng is currently entertaining God Emperor Yuhe.
God Emperor Yuhe has black feathers all over his body and a bird's head!
Cultivator Faction from various races, but they generally prefer to take forms similar to those of 'Senior Yuan', while those who maintain their racial form like God Emperor Yuhe are extremely rare.
"This World Origin Pearl is also one of my spoils of war. I've had it for hundreds of millions of years, but I've never used it. Now that Brother Luo Feng needs it... it seems that it is destined for Brother Luo Feng." God Emperor Yuhe smiled with his pointed beak, while also carefully observing Luo Feng.
Although the top figures in Chengfeng City do not know as much about Luo Feng as the Hall Master Yuan Xiang and the God Emperor Boshiu.
But they can be certain of one thing—
Before coming to the Dark Holy World, Luo Feng was already a peak-level existence! This alone was enough to make other peak-level existences wary. When facing Luo Feng, they naturally lowered their stance.
Only the city lord's side, the Mystic Ruins God Emperor's side, and the Eight Heavenly Wolf Friends, the three most powerful forces in the city, still have enough confidence when facing Luo Feng!
"Thank you, Brother Xie Yuhe," Luo Feng said with a smile. "I need this World Origin Pearl for my current cultivation."
Luo Feng and God Emperor Yuhe chatted casually, with Boshiu, Baiyin, and Chizheng keeping them company.
"Brother Luo Feng has other guests, so I won't disturb you any longer." God Emperor Yuhe was also trying to curry favor with Luo Feng this time, hoping to establish some friendship. After chatting for a while, she took the opportunity to bid farewell.
Luo Feng also got up to see him off.
"The God Emperor Yuhe cultivates the paths of death and destruction! He's notoriously fierce; I've never seen him so friendly before," the red-robed youth Chizheng said with a smile after the other party left.
"There are very few people in the entire Chengfeng City who can suppress his ferocity! Brother Luo Feng is naturally one of them." Boshiu also smiled.
"Let the other five guests come over as well," Luo Feng said.
Soon, all five guests arrived.
"Greetings to God Emperor Luo Feng, greetings to all God Emperors." The five of them felt pressured upon arriving here.
Boshiu and his two companions were already at the pinnacle of Chengfeng City, holding extremely high positions. While the three of them sat to the side, Luo Feng was seated in the main seat, clearly demonstrating the difference in their status.
"You're planning to sell your creation and destruction-type treasures?" Luo Feng smiled. "Take them out, and I'll offer a suitable high price. You can sell them if you want, or you can leave if you don't."
"Yes."
The five of them each took out their prepared secret treasures.
To have cultivated to such strength, they each had their own fortuitous fortuitous opportunity, obtaining powerful treasures. However, not every powerful treasure is suitable for them.
Even if a treasure is suitable for you, sometimes you still need to exchange 'world-class life materials' or 'powerful treasures' for resources! The Yan Feng Ancestor and the Thunder Ancestor did this before; they couldn't help it, they were quite poor in the Dark Holy World. Earning resources by risking their lives was too difficult.
Luo Feng looked at the five treasures in front of him.
A Pill Furnace, a diagram of an array, a large axe, a long spear, and a painting.
"Buzz".
Luo Feng's thoughts permeated the area, and he began to examine each of the five secret treasures one by one.
These treasures are mainly based on the combination of 'life and destruction', and some also contain other mysteries.
"I'll offer 20 billion Primal Chaos Crystal for this Pill Furnace. I'll offer 10 billion Primal Chaos Crystal for each of the other four items," Luo Feng said. "You can decide whether to sell or not."
The five god emperors all showed joy upon hearing this.
"We are willing."
"We are naturally willing."
All five of them were very satisfied with the price. A powerful secret treasure that usually only sells for 3-5 billion, Luo Feng offered 10 billion. Pill Furnace that usually sells for nearly 10 billion Primal Chaos Crystal, Luo Feng offered 20 billion.
Even peak-level beings wouldn't usually offer such a generous price! After all, Luo Feng earned over seven trillion Primal Chaos Crystal in one go, and with his strength, he could easily hunt Lowly Primal Chaos Lifeform just by wandering around in the wild, which is why he could offer such a high premium.
"This God Emperor Luo Feng is exceptionally generous." God Emperor Jixiu was also very excited at this moment. He had negotiated the price of his spear with other Xing Zhe several times, and the price was generally between three and four billion, but he had always been unwilling to sell it.
This time, God Emperor Luo Feng bought it for 10 billion Primal Chaos Crystal at a premium that God Emperor Jixiu might not earn that much in the Dark Holy World, even after countless years of fighting to the death.
The transaction was completed quickly.
Quiet Room.
Luo Feng looked at the five powerful treasures displayed in front of him with great satisfaction. He knew very well that without a sufficient premium, these powerful treasures were all unique, and negotiations would require a lot of effort, and there was no guarantee that he could buy them.
Double the price! That's enough. If the seller is still greedy? Luo Feng will simply kick them out.
Although he liked these powerful treasures, as the number of them increased, it didn't make much difference whether he had one more or one less.
"With these five treasures, along with the 'Undying Heart' and the 'Palm World,' my strength will increase considerably." Luo Feng nodded in satisfaction. Of course, among these treasures, he valued the Undying Heart the most.
This was obtained from the Infinite Space, and it has the strongest life-saving ability.
Call.
After putting away these powerful treasures, Luo Feng took out the World Origin Pearl. This black World Origin Pearl faintly glowed with purple light. After Luo Feng's power permeated the World Origin Pearl, he easily refined it.
"What a magnificent World Origin Pearl! No wonder it can assist in opening up Miniature Source World within the body, and even serve as the origin of that Miniature Source World. Its energy is indeed abundant." Luo Feng was very satisfied.
After refining the World Origin Pearl, its power can be easily converted into one's own energy.
Rumble~~~~
The conversion process lasted three days.
Luo Feng's physical energy reserves surged to a million times.
"A million times the reserves of Perfect Divine Body! Now, even with such a physical body, my strength has decreased rather than increased." Luo Feng felt the strain, but a smile remained on his face. "It's a good opportunity to explore some of the mysteries of the Mind-Consciousness System."
Time passed.
Luo Feng consumed various rare and powerful supplements, maintaining a mental processing speed of over a hundred times! His Mind-Consciousness System was also slowly taking shape over time.
Over a thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.
There were some forces within Chengfeng City that were originally eager to ambush and kill Luo Feng when he left the Chengfeng City! However... Luo Feng stayed in the cave abode of the God Emperor Boshiu for a long time and went into seclusion to cultivate, so they couldn't do anything about it.
They also understood that the wisdom of a peak-level being would not easily give them the opportunity to plunder.
Over the course of thousands of years, Luo Feng has exchanged Merit Points with the city lord's side twice, and the total of 30 million Merit Points has been fully traded.
"Buzz~~~"
The place where Luo Feng was in seclusion was sealed by layers of arrays, but on this day, the sealing arrays suddenly opened on their own.
Boshiu, Baiyin, and Chizheng naturally sensed the commotion of the array activating.
"Brother Luo Feng has emerged from seclusion?" The three of them immediately came to greet him.
They saw the familiar man in black with black hair walk out. They were quite familiar with Luo Feng, but when they saw Luo Feng walk out this time, it was as if they were watching an endless world approaching them.
They actually felt suffocated.
"Um?"
Upon seeing this, Luo Feng immediately realized the problem. "This time, my complete physical body emerged from seclusion, and the pressure was too strong." Previously, when handing over Merit Points, he had only sent out clones; this time, he was bringing his massive physical body with him.
A thought.
The powerful physical body temporarily hid inside the super-powerful treasure 'Scroll World' that it carried with it, leaving only a clone with 'ten thousand times the energy reserves' outside! The oppressive feeling naturally decreased rapidly.
Boshiu and the other two also felt that Luo Feng's pressure quickly returned to normal.
"Brother Luo Feng seems to have gained quite a bit from this seclusion," Boshiu said with a smile.
Baiyin and Chizheng also looked at Luo Feng, both secretly alarmed.
They all clearly remembered the 'oppressive feeling' they had just experienced. It was an oppressive feeling that even the two strongest figures in the Dark Holy World, 'God Emperor Jike' and 'Dragon Nine Daoist', could not bring.
"I have made some progress." Luo Feng smiled slightly, then shook his head gently. "However, there are indeed many obstacles in cultivation, which is quite troubling for me. I'm going to the Large Primal Chaos Hall in Primal Chaos City."
