The Challenge from King Feijing
After the many inheritors had left, Venerable Jiufeng, along with the Seven Swords King and other inheritors from the Human Race, landed to greet Yang Wu.
"King Shenwei!" Seven Swords King exclaimed in amazement, standing to the side, "I never imagined that you would become Immortal God after only a few thousand years of cultivation, and even manage to save your life from that Venerable Zhaoshi!"
He, the Seven Swords King, can be considered the most outstanding genius of the Human Race in this era. Before Yang Wu appeared, apart from King Mengsui of the Universe Mercenary Alliance, no one could compare with him.
However, in the last few thousand years, there has been an endless stream of unparalleled geniuses among the Human Race. Not to mention the amazingly talented King Shenwei Yang Wu in front of us, even Na Luo Feng, who recently became a disciple of the Chaos City Leader, has a talent that surpasses his by a lot.
After chatting with Yang Wu for a while, everyone left one after another, and Yang Wu returned to his residence with Venerable Jiufeng.
In the living room, Yang Wu and Venerable Jiufeng sat facing each other.
"King Shenwei, you were too reckless today!"
Venerable Jiufeng solemnly said, "Although you have broken through to become Immortal God and are protected by Supreme Treasure, your own strength is still somewhat lacking. If you encounter a powerful being who counters you, you might be in danger!"
As for Venerable Jiufeng, since he had accepted the mission issued by the Human Race to protect Yang Wu, he naturally had to complete it seriously.
Although Yang Wu was assassinated by the Venerable Zhaoshi and ultimately did not encounter any real danger, it still left him somewhat fearful.
Moreover, in Venerable Jiufeng's mind, even if Yang Wu became Immortal God and his strength increased greatly, he would at most be able to rival some of the most ordinary Universe Venerable. After all, human powerhouses are indeed much weaker than those heaven-defying Special Lifeform in terms of the size of their Divine Body and the Life Gene Level.
The reason Yang Wu was able to survive against a High-Level Universe Venerable like the Venerable Zhaoshi was simply because he possessed a heaven-defying defensive Supreme Treasure.
"I understand!" Yang Wu nodded earnestly.
Although he was not afraid of being assassinated by the Alien Race Universe Venerable, he did not refute Venerable Jiufeng.
"If you, King Shenwei, intend to operate within the Ancestral God Religion in the future, you must inform me first!"
Venerable Jiufeng continued, "With me here, I can absolutely guarantee your safety, King Shenwei!"
Although the task of protecting Yang Wu might encounter some trouble, Venerable Jiufeng was still very willing to do it.
Firstly, after accepting this mission, he had already received contribution points from his clan, which could be directly exchanged for Heavy Treasure points;
Secondly, Yang Wu possesses boundless talent, and as many Alien Race have said, he will likely break through to the realm of Universe Venerable soon, or even Universe Master. Venerable Jiufeng would naturally be willing to forge a good relationship with him.
"Thank you Venerable Jiufeng!" Yang Wu did not continue immediately, but instead raised his cup in greeting.
Anyway, he won't need long to conduct the next simulation. Once he breaks through to the Universe Venerable realm, there will be very few powerful beings in the universe who can pose a fatal threat to him, so he doesn't need to worry about troubling Venerable Jiufeng for too long.
While Yang Wu was talking with Venerable Jiufeng, all the major super powers in the universe quickly learned that he had become Immortal God.
Many powerful beings from the Monster Race, the Machine Race, and the Zerg Race were also extremely angry.
After all, once one becomes Immortal God, the mere fact of Undying Body's already significantly increases the difficulty of assassination. Not to mention, becoming Immortal God allows the use of even more powerful Supreme Treasure.
"Chief, that King Shenwei has become Immortal God. If we want to continue assassinating him, there is probably only one way. That is to send Universe Overlord is proficient in Soul Attack, either to infiltrate and invade with his soul or to directly Soul Control. Only someone stronger than that Venerable Zhaoshi has any chance of killing him!"
"Universe Overlord? However, being able to kill a human super genius is worthwhile. Go and choose a suitable candidate!"
The super beings of many super powers are well aware that if the opponent were at the World Lord stage, he would undoubtedly be the easiest to kill. However, now that he has become Immortal God, the difficulty of assassination will naturally increase considerably.
Among the many super powers, the Monster Race undoubtedly reacted the most strongly.
Within the Demon Race Territory, in a Cosmic Secret Realm.
In the silent void, countless flames of boundless power enveloped a space-time, and at the very center of these endless flames floated a majestic temple.
Just as Yang Wu and Venerable Jiufeng were talking, the Divine Power Avatar of the Lord of Youmo suddenly appeared in front of the temple.
"Lord of Sky Wolf!" The majestic voice of the Lord of Youmo resounded throughout this realm.
Before the words had even faded, the temple doors opened, and a colossal, jet-black Tianlang- like figure, surrounded by flames, emerged from within.
The other party was none other than the Lord of Sky Wolf Clan, the greatest being of the Sky Wolf Race, one of the Demon Race Royal Family of the demon race.
"Lord of Youmo, what brings you here?" The Lord of Sky Wolf's voice was very gloomy, causing a chill to run down one's spine upon hearing it.
When the Lord of Sky Wolf and the Lord of Youmo were evenly matched in strength, their relationship was quite good. Of course, in terms of their status among the Monster Race, the Lord of Sky Wolf was naturally superior.
"Lord of Sky Wolf, do you still remember that peerless genius of the Human Race, the King Shenwei Yang Wu?" the Lord of Youmo asked in a deep voice.
"Oh? It's that little fellow?" The Lord of Sky Wolf was slightly surprised, then asked, "Didn't you already arrange for the Venerable Zhaoshi of the Loach Clan to assassinate him? The Loach Clan had even migrated to the Aodolan Star Sector! What, did something unexpected happen?"
"It's a bit unexpected!" the Lord of Youmo said in a deep voice. "Just now, the King Shenwei appeared on Bauhinia Island. Having become Immortal God, he directly withstood the Soul Attack and material attacks of the Venerable Zhaoshi!"
"He's become Immortal God? And he even withstood the attack of the Venerable Zhaoshi?" The Lord of Sky Wolf frowned slightly, then said, "This is rather troublesome!"
"Yes!" the Lord of Youmo nodded and said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to find you, Lord of Sky Wolf!"
"Lord of Sky Wolf, you have successfully orchestrated numerous assassinations of super geniuses from the other Three Great Peak Races, so your experience must be extremely rich. In your opinion, how should my Monster Race deal with that King Shenwei next?"
"Hahaha! You've come to the right person!" the Lord of Sky Wolf laughed heartily.
Over countless years, he has orchestrated the assassinations of numerous geniuses from the other three major races, eliminating many threats to the Monster Race. This is indeed his proudest achievement.
"Now that the King Shenwei has become Immortal God, our first task is to ascertain his strength!"
The Lord of Sky Wolf said earnestly, "You must know that the Human Race certainly values a peerless genius like the King Shenwei highly, and may have already helped him create several Clones!"
"Clone?" The Lord of Youmo nodded slightly as well.
Although the ability to Clone Technique is a rare talent bestowed upon certain rare races and Special Lifeform by the universe, it cannot be obtained through cultivation and is extremely rare.
However, for these super beings, helping a World Lord Level genius possess the Golden Horned Beast, the Qiuhe Giant Beast, or other beings with the ability to Possession Clone, or even some heaven-defying Special Lifeform, is an extremely common thing.
The only difference lies in whether they are willing to pay these prices for a genius.
Given how extraordinary the King Shenwei's performance was, it would be abnormal if the Human Race did not help him obtain the means to Clone!
"Furthermore, since the King Shenwei was able to withstand the Venerable Zhaoshi's attack with his Immortal body, he must possess some special abilities. We must find out!"
The Lord of Sky Wolf continued, "If the other party achieved this through a treasure, that's fine. But if they did it through their own strength, that's much more troublesome!"
"Relying on their own strength to withstand the full-force attack of the Venerable Zhaoshi?" The Lord of Youmo was slightly taken aback. "That's unlikely!"
He had never considered this issue before.
"You Demon, you haven't cultivated for long enough!"
The Lord of Sky Wolf sighed, "Such things are rare, but throughout the endless ages, there have been some such geniuses in the universe!"
"Just like the Lord of Changjiu in my Monster Race, who could achieve this level even at the Immortal God stage!"
"The cultivation speed of that King Shenwei seems to be even faster than that of the Lord of Changjiu back then. He might even be able to achieve this!"
"The Lord of Changjiu?" The Lord of Youmo was startled.
The Lord of Changjiu is currently considered one of the most powerful Universe Master within the Monster Race, second only to the two Universe Supreme Being. Although the Lord of Youmo is also Universe Master, he is far inferior to the Lord of Changjiu.
"If that's really the case, then the threat posed by the King Shenwei is far too great!" the Lord of Youmo sighed softly.
"Indeed!" Lord of Sky Wolf exclaimed in agreement. "I still vividly remember Lord of Changjiu's experience of constantly growing stronger amidst assassinations from the three major races: the Human Race, the Machine Race, and the Zerg Race. Compared to that, Venerable Zhaoshi's attempt to assassinate the King Shenwei is nothing!"
"Lord of Sky Wolf!" The Lord of Youmo then asked seriously, "What do you think we should do to figure out the methods of that King Shenwei?"
"I need to think about this seriously!"
The Lord of Sky Wolf pondered for a moment, then said, "Since the King Shenwei has already appeared within the Ancestral God Religion, this matter should be resolved within the Ancestral God Religion!"
"If we want to test their abilities, we can send a Beast God Inheritor at the Immortal God stage to challenge them. I think they won't refuse a challenge between experts of the same level!"
"That's a good idea!" The Lord of Youmo nodded seriously. "However, to deal with that King Shenwei, we'd probably need one of the top ten super beings among those Immortal inheritors, but none of them are strong members of our Monster Race Alliance!"
"That's easy!" the Lord of Sky Wolf said with a smile. "We can contribute some resources to invite powerful figures from other forces to take action. This might even incite conflict between other forces and the Human Race!"
"That's true!" The Lord of Youmo pondered for a moment, then said, "In that case, I have a good option!"
"The King Feijing of the Northern Territory Alliance is inherently greedy and selfish, but he is quite powerful, and has even defeated Universe Venerable in a direct confrontation."
"Moreover, after that King Shenwei opened the Ancestral God Religion's first treasure trove last time, that King Feijing also had some conflicts with him. Now that the King Shenwei has risen to fame, the other party is probably unwilling!"
"Hmm?" The Lord of Sky Wolf nodded slightly and said, "I remember that the King Feijing should be under the command of the Lord of Qilan in the Northern Territory Alliance, and he has some connection with the Lord of Qilan. He is indeed a good choice!"
"Haha!" The Lord of Youmo also smiled and said, "The Lord of Qilan is Fourth-Order Universe Master. His strength ranks among the top in the entire Primal Universe, and he even holds a very high position in the Northern Territory Alliance. If he were to clash with the Human Race, that would be quite interesting!"
In fact, there are conflicts to varying degrees among the many super powers in the universe.
The Lord of Youmo and the Lord of Sky Wolf were well aware that even if either the King Feijing or the King Shenwei perished, it wouldn't significantly affect the relationship between the Human Race and the Northern Territory Alliance. However, some of their close associates would become hostile towards each other, and their objective would be achieved.
"In that case, I'll send someone to invite the King Feijing to make a move!" the Lord of Youmo said with a smile.
Generally speaking, the Lord of Youmo's true form within the Ancestral God Religion had already begun summoning his powerful subordinates to make contact with the King Feijing.
At this moment, Yang Wu was completely unaware of the schemes of the two Universe Master the Monster Race. He was still in his mansion exchanging insights with Venerable Jiufeng.
Venerable Jiufeng is Universe Overlord, whose Law Comprehension has long reached an astonishing level. Yang Wu benefited greatly from his exchanges with him.
"King Shenwei!"
Just then, a piercing sound suddenly rang out outside the mansion.
"It's King Feijing!"
"King Feijing has actually come looking for King Shenwei!"
The commotion caused by Yang Wu had not yet subsided, and people were still paying attention to his residence. Therefore, it was not long before someone discovered the identity of the newcomer. He was none other than the extraordinary Special Lifeform from the Northern Territory Alliance, the King Feijing.
"The King Feijing? What's he doing here?"
Yang Wu and Venerable Jiufeng were inside the mansion, also noticed the arrival of King Feijing and then left the mansion together.
"That damned King Shenwei has indeed become Immortal God!"
Feeling the growing pressure emanating from Yang Wu, King Feijing sneered inwardly, "You dared to ignore me back then, now I'll make you pay the price! And those treasures you possess will surely be mine too!"
Although Yang Wu had just blocked the Venerable Zhaoshi's full-force attack, the King Feijing was not concerned. After all, the Venerable Zhaoshi was killed by the Five-Colored Aurora after only a short while of attacking. If it were a duel, he could keep attacking the King Shenwei. With his massive Divine Body, he could wear down the opponent even if it was just a matter of attrition!
"King Feijing, what are you doing here?" Venerable Jiufeng asked, frowning.
"Venerable Jiufeng!" King Feijing spoke up, "I have come to see King Shenwei!"
"King Shenwei?"
The many inheritors around them became excited.
"The Venerable Zhaoshi just perished while assassinating the King Shenwei, and now the King Feijing has arrived!"
"Yes, I wonder what that King Feijing is up to?"
Although the Venerable Zhaoshi is stronger, his fame is far inferior to that of the King Feijing.
Therefore, the appearance of King Feijing immediately attracted the attention of many inheritors.
Yang Wu looked at King Feijing and asked with interest, "King Feijing, what do you want with me?"
"Hahaha... It's been thousands of years since we last met. I never imagined that you, King Shenwei, have become Immortal God!"
King Feijing looked at Yang Wu and said earnestly, "Congratulations!"
"King Shenwei, you established your reputation at the Limit King Level even during your World Lord stage, and you even opened the First Treasure in the Treasure Land. Now that you have become Immortal, you have even managed to save your life from the clutches of the Venerable Zhaoshi!"
As King Feijing spoke, his jealousy grew ever stronger.
He has cultivated for countless years, yet his wealth is still less than that of an ordinary life that has only cultivated for a few thousand years!
"King Shenwei, your strength is so great!"
King Feijing smiled and said, "I came here to challenge you. I wonder if you dare to accept?"
