Blood Vein Crystal
A locked room.
Hearing that Tang Ping had agreed to recruit him...
Luo Feng nodded slightly. "There is a mortal enemy on Falling Ink Star, whose identity is sensitive, so it has never been made public. You must keep this a secret, or your life will be in danger."
"Furthermore, including you, Falling Ink Star only has four disciples. You should have heard of Hong and Thunder God; I'll introduce you to them later."
"Born on Earth, I have long admired Lord Hong and Thunder God!" Tang Ping nodded excitedly.
Luo Feng couldn't help but chuckle.
He understood that feeling all too well. When he first met Hong, didn't he also feel that the other person was as unattainable as a god?
He raised his hand to activate the spatial device on his wrist. "This is our first meeting. I just came back from the Virtual Universe and wasn't prepared. I'm giving you this Hunyuan Unit as a congratulatory gift. Also, Babata has already told me about your 'Lay Flat Capital.' If you need any further cooperation, just contact it. Forget about my share; you can keep it for your own cultivation."
If you have any questions about cultivation, feel free to ask me. I'm not an expert in the Wind and Thunder Laws, but I know many friends who have studied them extensively.
A Hunyuan Unit!
Atmosphere!
Tang Ping's eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly said, "Patriarch, I have another treasure here that I would like to give you."
Luo Feng smiled faintly, not taking it to heart. As Domain Lord -level genius of the Primal Secret Region of the Virtual Universe Company, the reward for any mission could reach tens of thousands of Hunyuan, and ordinary treasures were simply not worth his attention.
"No need, your kindness—oh!"
The words abruptly stopped.
When Tang Ping took out the palm-sized Black Stone Tablet from his Space Ring, Luo Feng's aura suddenly froze. The stone slab was icy to the touch, and its surface was engraved with countless twisted patterns, resembling both writing and star charts, which caused his long-dormant spiritual senses to issue a warning.
This thing is crucial to him.
The moment Luo Feng received the stone slab, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
A low shout rolled out from his throat, and the power of a peak Domain Lord Ninth Rank was poured into his hands without reservation, his knuckles turning white from the force. This kind of power was enough to crush the core of a star, but when it landed on the stone slab, it was like a mud ox sinking into the sea, not even causing the slightest tremor.
"What a strange material." Luo Feng frowned, his fingertips tracing the patterns, a faint suction force emanating from within the stone slab.
He pondered deeply. He was intimately familiar with the rare items in the Virtual Universe Company's access database and the Star Core Secret Records in the Golden Horned Beast's inherited memories, yet he had never seen a similar substance before.
"There are no records of even the Golden Horned Beast's past memories—" Luo Feng's gaze grew even more profound.
He was well aware of his own importance. In the 1008 human Universe Country, although the Primal Secret Region Member held high positions, they were far from touching the true core. There were also King Zhen Yan and Universe Country Lord; behind those powerful figures, there must be many more secrets he did not know.
This stone slab is definitely not ordinary.
Luo Feng carefully stored the stone slab in his Space Ring, then looked up at Tang Ping, his handsome, honest, and loyal grandson-in-law. The young man stood silently to the side, his eyes filled with nothing but pure respect, devoid of any reluctance.
This kind of mindset is even more precious than talent.
After a moment's thought, he took out ten crystals from his Storage Space.
Those translucent triangular prisms floated silently in my palm, their surfaces shimmering with a blood-red aura, each beat radiating a powerful life energy like a heartbeat.
"Tang Ping, your willpower is quite strong. This Xueluo Crystal is hereby bestowed upon you." Luo Feng's voice deepened. "This is a restricted-level treasure obtained through training at the Virtual Universe Company, its value far exceeding that of Heavy Treasure."
It can rewrite gene sequences, allowing for a leap in physical strength, deepening the understanding of Laws of Origin, and directly boosting combat power.
With a flick of his finger, a Xueluo Crystal floated before Tang Ping: "The method is simple, just drip blood into your body to fuse it. But remember, each crystal core retains the Killing Will of the Beast God, and you must resist it with your own will when fusing."
Those with weak willpower will go mad on the spot.
"Moreover, the difficulty increases with each strike. The Will Impact of the tenth strike is comparable to the pressure of a World Lord Rank expert." Luo Feng's gaze swept across Tang Ping's face. "When the physical body is subjected to the energy surge, the pain will increase exponentially."
After fusing three, you must take Soul Calming Potion to maintain cell activity; otherwise, your physical body will disintegrate in the energy torrent. The Universe Origin Laws will also repel you, and very few people can fuse more than ten. Just do your best; there's no need to force it.
I will send you the detailed usage instructions and precautions later.
"Furthermore," he emphasized, "This item is strictly prohibited from being distributed or sold outside the company; violators will be targeted by the Virtual Universe Company's enforcement team."
"Yes, sir!" Tang Ping took the Xueluo Crystal with both hands. The moment his fingertips touched the crystal, he felt its vigorous yet violent energy and quickly bowed in agreement.
Luo Feng waved his hand, his expression indifferent.
Although Xueluo Crystal are precious, he had gained quite a lot in the secret realm, so he wasn't stingy. However, the difficulty of fusing them was far beyond what outsiders could imagine.
If he hadn't possessed the formidable physical body and soul of the Golden Horned Beast, and hadn't received numerous fortunate opportunities, he might not have been able to fuse several. Tang Ping's physique was ordinary; achieving one or two would have been his limit.
He picked up the spiritual tea on the table, and as the steam rose, he said, "Go back and refine it first. If there's a significant discovery with that stone slab, I won't forget your share."
This is tantamount to an order to leave.
Tang Ping happily accepted the Xueluo Crystal and bowed before taking his leave.
You must understand that if one can become Black Warrior, their physique will already surpass that of most humans who are immortal. Compared to the fleeting wealth of those Hunyuan Unit, this Supreme Treasure that can reshape one's foundation is the true, immense opportunity.
As expected of the head of the family, so magnanimous.
Loyalty!
Tang Ping stood outside the hall for a moment. Luo Xiaoyu's figure had just disappeared behind the hall door when she came out with light steps. Her smile was so bright that she couldn't hide it, and her eyes and brows were full of joy.
Clearly, Ancestor Luo Feng had also given her a precious gift.
After the three met up, they walked together towards the outside of the hall. In the distance, they saw King Dragon Wing standing at the door, chatting and laughing with the three Marquis Immortal giants of the Ganwu Branch.
King Dragon Wing glanced up and saw the expressions on the three people's faces, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.
This was precisely why he brought these three little ones along; who doesn't know how to build relationships? It's just that he was much more adept at maintaining a proper demeanor than others.
Although Luo Feng is now renowned and considered a top figure among geniuses, he is, at his core, just a minor Domain Lord. Compared to a veteran powerhouse like himself, his strength is worlds apart, a difference of a hundred thousand light-years.
King Dragon Wing, mindful of his status, kept his interactions with Luo Feng to a minimum. There was no need for him to act like the three giants of the Ganwu, who, despite being noble Marquis Immortal, had to lower themselves to deliberately curry favor.
Moreover, while the so-called Inspector Envoy could oversee the daily operations of the three giants, he had no say in his affairs.
Furthermore, a review of past records reveals that while geniuses abound in the universe, very few can truly cross the threshold of immortality. Most perish in the brutal trials of the World Lord Rank, and even those who manage to survive only achieve the highest rank of King-Rank Immortal in their lifetime, remaining on equal footing with him.
Licking? Absolutely unnecessary.
Could it be that Luo Feng can defy fate and become one of those legendary Venerable who can rule over a Universe Country and overlook billions of stars?
Thinking of this absurd possibility, King Dragon Wing couldn't help but chuckle, waved his hand, and decisively led Tang Ping and the other two away, leaving behind a carefree figure.
Watching the four figures disappear into the distance, the smiles on the faces of the three leaders of the Ganwu gradually faded, and they fell into a brief silence.
"Just who are these three Universe Level little guys?" The first to break the silence was Purple Lightning Monkey, the Ganwu Branch the Commerce Department of the Virtual Universe Company, who was dressed in a purple robe and whose ape-man face was full of curiosity.
Upon hearing this, the girl "Marquis Black Annihilation" Vissa, draped in a black gauze robe and barefoot, chuckled and explained, "The little girl in White Clothes is Luo Feng's direct descendant, named Luo Xiaoyu; that one named Feng Lun was Luo Feng's teammate in the previous Genius Tournament."
As for Tang Ping, he was a genius discovered by Luo Feng's Smart Life in a virtual game. These past few days, the three of them have been leading a team, going around to branches to discuss investment, hoping to build up their company.
"Oh?" The Purple Lightning Monkey's eyes lit up.
What he was most wary of was that newly appointed Inspector Envoy like Luo Feng were unambitious and had no desires. Once the other party lost his weakness, they, the veterans who had worked in the branch for many years, would be at a loss.
"Don't worry, the investment department has already taken the initiative to reach out." Marquis Black Annihilation Vissa smiled calmly, her tone confident.
Upon hearing this, the other two giants exchanged a knowing glance, and relaxed smiles returned to their faces.
Everyone has weaknesses, especially geniuses like this who are connected to their families and friends.
Now they can finally rest easy.
Hopefully, the newly appointed Inspector Envoy, Luo Feng, will be more pragmatic.
