Within the Primordial Secret Realm the Virtual Universe Company, in the Desperate Level Secret Realm of Demon Mountain, a deep and icy cave, an adorable ice bear is cautiously exploring alone, looking around.
"Twelve years! Junbao has been trapped in the Purgatory Abyss for twelve years without any news!" Luo Feng, now an ice bear, still had a hint of restlessness in his eyes, something he had deliberately kept hidden.
Now, after years of being influenced by Zhang Junbao, Hong, and Thunder God, the Golden Horned Beast's killing intent could no longer affect him. However, Luo Feng still retained a trace of manic killing intent, because only in this way could he never let his guard down.
Although Luo Feng's state of mind was not as profound as that of Zhang Junbao, Hong, and Thunder God Shen, he had honed the First Layer level of mental cultivation to an extremely deep level, forging his own path of self-cultivation.
Over the past twelve years, Luo Feng has made considerable progress. Although he is still at the peak of the First Layer in the three realms of mind cultivation, Luo Feng has gone further than Zhang Junbao and the other two in the First Layer level. With his strong will, he has proven that even if one only maintains the First Layer of mind, one can make one's heart incredibly strong.
Never compromise, never yield. With the fortitude of the Law of Metal and the First Layer of cultivation, Luo Feng's heart is as pure and spotless as a blade, reflecting the truest essence of his own being.
Do not seek external influences, tolerate nothing, and only respect your true self! Bring the characteristics of Understanding the Heart and Seeing One's Nature to their fullest potential.
"In the previous Qualification Battle, the werewolf ' Krov ' from the Primordial Secret Realm Member did not appear in the final battle. He was still carrying out Desperate Level Mission during the Qualification Battle."
Whether they are alive or dead is still unknown!
Junbao has been trapped in the Purgatory Abyss for twelve years; the dangers he has faced are unimaginable!
Even for Virtual Universe Company, it's difficult to ascertain whether some geniuses are alive or dead.
Especially in the special circumstances of a desperate mission, such as when Zhang Junbao is trapped in the Purgatory Abyss, if he is suddenly killed by an Immortal and his body destroyed, even the Virtual Universe Company cannot confirm whether Zhang Junbao is alive or dead.
The more unusual the environment, the more difficult it is to confirm whether someone is alive or dead.
A flicker of lingering fear crossed Luo Feng's eyes. First Zhang Junbao, then the werewolf ' Krov ', two top geniuses from the Virtual Universe Company, had lost contact with each other in the Desperate Level Realm.
After discovering the secrets of the Blood Luo Crystal in the Blood Luo World and gaining tremendous benefits, Luo Feng initially felt a sense of smug satisfaction, a confidence born from his surge in strength.
Within the Demon Mountain, he even obtained the ' Demon Sound Divine General Inheritance,' a powerful inheritance that could potentially increase his chances of becoming Universe Venerable. Even for members of the Primal Secret Region, the chances of surviving and becoming Immortal are still very low, while becoming Universe Venerable is something no one can guarantee.
The birth of a Universe Venerable requires talent, hard work, and luck—all three are indispensable.
"The requirements of each cultivation task are inherently very dangerous. These have all been specially assessed by the Virtual Universe Company, so there will certainly not be much deviation."
In the Blood Luo World, I was fortunate enough to obtain the Beast God Statue and glimpse a sliver of the Blood Luo Crystal's secret. This alone has caused my strength to skyrocket.
"As for the Demon Sound Mountain, just surviving for three years is already considered a ' Desperate Level ' mission. Within three years, just avoiding the terrifying Demon Sound, the World Lord Level natives and the phantom beasts is already considered Desperate Level Mission for Universe Level being."
If it weren't for my Moshaa Clan Clone, I probably would have perished on Demon Sound Mountain long ago.
For other Universe Level beings, attempting to seize the Demon Sound Divine General Inheritance is a death mission. It's an inheritance left for those King-level Immortal. I was incredibly lucky to be able to enter it.
Such luck doesn't come every time, and you can't go far on luck alone.
"I have already gained enough benefits from the training missions. This time, after leaving Demon Sound Mountain, I will immediately break through to become Domain Lord."
That way, at least I can return to the Ganwu Universe Country and protect Earth at any time.
Although Luo Feng knew that these training missions probably concealed great opportunities, such opportunities were often accompanied by terrible dangers.
Since Zhang Junbao's accident, he has not been able to connect to the Virtual Universe Network for twelve years. Even the werewolf Krov, who is also a genius of the Primordial Secret Realm, is in the same situation. Such a high level of danger forces Luo Feng to make a careful choice.
Not long after, Luo Feng left Demon Sound Mountain and, with the confirmation of the Virtual Universe Company, was promoted to Domain Lord. He chose to be sent back to the Ganwu Universe Country.
" Luo Feng, now that you have broken through to the Domain Lord and decided to return to the Ganwu Universe Country, I must remind you that the enormous force that once coveted Earth has already begun to take action."
What I find strange is that during your training period, he clearly had many opportunities to suppress Earth, but he waited until you left Demon Mountain and decided to return to the Ganwu Universe Country before making his move, as if he was waiting for you to return."
In the Virtual Universe Network, in the Public Region of Yuxiang Mountain, opposite Luo Feng, Bolan, Rong Jun, and Wuka were all present. Luo Feng's sudden breakthrough to become Domain Lord had put pressure on the three of them. Breaking through to the Universe Level meant becoming a regional governor, taking on an important position in Universe Country, no longer just Universe Level genius within the Virtual Universe Company. He would have to face even stronger geniuses; many Domain Lord Level geniuses had cultivated for thousands, even tens of thousands of years. Now, Luo Feng, a mere hundred-year-old 'kid,' dared to enter the Domain Lord Level and compete with those geniuses who had cultivated for tens of thousands of years—the pressure was immense.
However, just as True Yan King said to Luo Feng, as a strong person, one should naturally challenge stronger enemies. If one is clearly capable of advancing, but instead hides at the Universe Level and competes with a group of newcomers, that would be too boring. A genius with such a mentality is destined not to become a top-tier expert.
Throughout history, the strong have always wielded their swords against the stronger; only the weak enjoy confronting the weaker. True strength disdains bullying the weak.
Within the Virtual Universe Company, a Universe Level genius is equivalent to a fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenager. Although they possess outstanding talent, they still need to be protected and carefully nurtured.
Reaching the Domain Lord Level means becoming an eighteen-year-old adult again, needing to start learning to acknowledge responsibility, take ownership of oneself, and understand the universe.
Many geniuses who lost the protection and nurturing of the Virtual Universe Company, at the Domain Lord Level, were attracted by the allure of the outside world and no longer focused solely on cultivation like those at the Universe Level. They became the new elites of the cosmic forces, possessing outstanding talent and high status, with countless people eager to curry favor with them. This caused some geniuses to lose themselves, unaware that some crises were quietly approaching.
"The forces that King-level Immortal and are spying on Earth, and they're even waiting for my return, they probably don't have good intentions. Don't worry, I won't let my guard down this time I go back."
Before entering Chaos City, Thunder God had already subdued the geniuses in the Ganwu Secret Realm. When I return, I will contact them to try to obtain support from the major powers within the Ganwu Universe Country and from the Ganwu Country Lord.
"There are also many King-level Immortal within the Ganwu Universe Country. Even if that King-level Immortal has designs on me, he should still consider the other King Rank powerhouses."
Luo Feng did not stubbornly try to fight against the King-level Immortal on his own. At present, his strength and influence were far inferior to those of the King Rank experts, and he had no chance of winning at all.
The only hope is to leverage external resources.
"Long before we entered the Virtual Universe Company, Junbao had already planned everything. He sent Thunder God to subdue the geniuses in the Ganwu Secret Realm first, and used these geniuses as a springboard to win over the major forces within the Ganwu Universe Country."
As a Primal Secret Region Member of my Virtual Universe Company, upon returning to the Ganwu Universe Country, my status would be comparable to that of Marquis Immortal, and I would also be able to serve as one of the giants of the Virtual Universe Company stationed in the Ganwu Universe Country.
Such a status is enough to make even Marquis Immortal take me seriously, and even King-level Immortal would not easily oppose me.
That's the advantage of having power!
"Regardless of whether any one of us four returns to the Ganwu Universe Country, it will quickly become our base of operations. Other powerful individuals who want to deal with us will inevitably have to be wary of the forces behind us!"
Although members of the Virtual Universe Company's Primal Secret Region Member have a more prestigious status, it would be much more convenient to handle urgent matters if they could receive support from local forces Ganwu Universe Country the Ganwu Universe Country.
"If Junbao were here, he might even gain the respect of the Ganwu Country Lord."
When Zhang Junbao participated in the Genius Battle, the Ganwu Country Lord gifted him many treasures, and Zhang Junbao publicly thanked the Ganwu Country Lord. The two had already established a relationship. Even now, a legend still circulates in the Ganwu Universe Country that Zhang Junbao was able to shine in the Genius Battle precisely because of the Ganwu Country Lord's discerning eye for talent.
The Ganwu Country Lord is considered Zhang Junbao's mentor, on par with the Chaos City Lord. This rumor circulates in many places within the Ganwu Universe Country. Although the Ganwu Country Lord once came out to 'clarify' it, the rumors only spread further.
At this point, Luo Feng had to admire Zhang Junbao's foresight. Although the four of them had become Core Member of the Virtual Universe Company, they had no power outside. Relying solely on the power of Earth and the Milky Way Galaxy, it was simply impossible for them to contend with other powerful entities.
Therefore, as early as the moment they stepped into the universe, Zhang Junbao had already begun to make plans, trying to tie the Ganwu Universe Country to his own war machine. As long as Earth was within the territory of the Ganwu Universe Country, then the Ganwu Universe Country, and even the Ganwu Country Lord, would be their backer.
Gaining the support of a Universe Country Lord is no easy feat.
Luo Feng was dispatched to the Ganwu Universe Country. Although his status was still far below that of the Ganwu Country Lord, given his past relationship with Zhang Junbao, if a crisis truly arose and he sought help from the Ganwu Country Lord, he might be able to lend a hand.
"Since Junbao has made arrangements in advance, we can rest assured. After all, our forces are too far from the Ganwu Universe Country. If we want to mobilize more power, we need my father to take action. The power I can use right now is limited," Wuka said.
"Don't worry, it doesn't necessarily mean it will conflict with the King-level Immortal."
Luo Feng naturally didn't want to have a direct conflict with a King Rank expert; that would be extremely irrational. No matter how outstanding his talent was, before becoming a true expert, he absolutely couldn't believe he could be an enemy of King-level Immortal, otherwise he wouldn't even know how he died.
He could glean from the True Yan King that the power of King-level Immortal far exceeded what Luo Feng could currently imagine.
Leaving the Virtual Universe Network, Luo Feng returned to the Ganwu Universe Country in a short time through Dylan's Divine Kingdom Teleportation. Dylan was the leader of the guards specially arranged for Luo Feng by Luo Feng teacher, True Yan King. He was a disciple of Bloodthirsty King, the third disciple of True Yan King, and possessed the strength of a peak Immortal Army Lord, close to the Marquis Level.
Even compared to Hu Yanbo back then, his strength is not much different.
On the surface of an unnamed mineral planet within the territory of the Ganwu Universe Country, a dazzling light appeared out of nowhere, and a flat spaceship materialized out of thin air.
"Your Highness, this is the Pengyan Star Field, within the borders of the Ganwu Universe Country."
Luo Feng nodded. The Immortal God's ' Immortal Divine Power ' is unique. As long as the mark of the Immortal Divine Power is left, it can be quickly teleported to the location of the mark through positioning and using the God Kingdom, which is very convenient.
However, the God Kingdom is an extremely important secret for Immortal Expert. Once the location of the God Kingdom is discovered by other powerhouses and Destruction, the strength of the Immortal Expert God Kingdom inevitably be severely damaged.
Therefore, only those whom one absolutely trusts will be chosen by Immortal Expert to use the God Kingdom for teleportation.
" Dylan, come with me to the Universe Galaxy Bank to transfer the funds for the Divine Kingdom Teleportation to you."
"Your Highness, no need." Dylan shook his head. In terms of seniority, Luo Feng was his senior uncle. Although the cost of Divine Kingdom Teleportation was not small, it was still within Dylan's tolerance, so he didn't care.
However, Luo Feng also had his own principles. The cost of this Divine Kingdom Teleportation was about 8 Hunyuan Unit. Some Immortal God had less than 10,000 Hunyuan Unit in wealth. One Divine Kingdom Teleportation required 8 Hunyuan Unit. Even Immortal Expert were reluctant to Divine Kingdom Teleportation repeatedly unless there was a very urgent matter or they were escaping for their lives.
This time, Luo Feng was in a hurry to return to the Ganwu Universe Country, so he chose to ask Dylan to help with the teleportation, but Luo Feng would not let Dylan pay for the teleportation in advance.
Eight Hunyuan Unit. Back when Luo Feng bought the Yan Shen Armament, it cost about the same.
Zhang Junbao had already passed on Hu Yanbo's legacy to Luo Feng, and now Luo Feng is also able to access the wealth left behind by Hu Yanbo.
Now that Luo Feng has reached the Domain Lord Level, he has long met the conditions to retrieve all of Hu Yanbo's inheritance.
Inside the exclusive confidential room for five-star clients of the Universe Galaxy Bank, Luo Feng saw a flash on the light screen, displaying a line of numbers. "Balance: 312,2810 Hunyuan."
"3.12 million Hunyuan Unit! Teacher Hu Yanbo actually left behind such a huge fortune!" Even though Luo Feng's status is different now, he was still very excited when he saw this number.
He now possesses treasures such as the ' Yunmo Star Ship ', 'nearly ten thousand Blood Luo Crystal ', and ' Ultimate Flame Void Gold ', each of which is Supreme Treasure worth millions of Hunyuan Unit. However, it is precisely because he obtained these Supreme Treasure that he realized it would take many years to earn millions of Hunyuan Unit.
Luo Feng transferred the three Hunyuan Unit from the sub-account into his own account. With millions of cash on hand, Luo Feng felt much more confident.
Although he earned a lot by exploring the Cosmic Secret Realm, with a gluttonous clone like the Golden Horned Beast that devours Clone, no amount of resources was ever enough.
Luo Feng transferred the 8 Hunyuan Unit from the Divine Kingdom Teleportation to Dylan. Just as he was about to turn and leave, he received an urgent call request from his wife, Xu Xin.
" Xu Xin, what's wrong?"
" Luo Feng, this is bad! Earth's monitoring system has detected that several alien spaceships have suddenly appeared near the Milky Way Galaxy, and they are heading straight for Earth."
"What?"
Luo Feng exclaimed in surprise. He had just returned to the Ganwu Universe Country and made a transfer at the bank. The other party immediately knew his whereabouts and even dispatched a spaceship to the Milky Way Galaxy.
This was like an old cat teasingly watching Luo Feng, this little mouse. The moment Luo Feng made a move, the cat would swat him with its paw, as if playing a game.
" Xu Xin, immediately take your family into the survival pod. They're after me. I've arrived in the Ganwu Universe Country and will be back on Earth soon. Wait for me!"
Luo Feng's face was extremely ugly, and his gloomy eyes were filled with murderous intent.
By doing this, the other party was clearly treating Luo Feng as prey to be tortured and killed at any time, enjoying the pleasure of toying with him at will.
" Dylan, come on, let's get back to Earth right now!"
"Your Highness, what happened?"
"A large number of spaceships have entered the Milky Way Galaxy, their target being my home planet Earth!"
"What? Your Highness's hometown has a protection team dispatched by the Virtual Universe Company. Who would dare to be so audacious?"
"A King-level Immortal, whose identity is still unknown, but their intentions are clear: they're coming for me!"
"You take control of the spaceship; I need to immediately access the Virtual Universe Network to discuss this matter with my teacher."
Luo Feng hadn't expected that his opponent wouldn't give him any time to react. As soon as they realized he was back in the Ganwu Universe Country, they immediately began to suppress him. He didn't have time to win over the other King-level Immortal in the Ganwu Universe Country, so he could only place his hopes on his teacher, True Yan King.
A King-level Immortal is coming in with overwhelming force. Even though Luo Feng is Core Member of the Virtual Universe Company, their status is vastly different. As long as Luo Feng isn't killed, even if Earth is completely destroyed, the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters can't punish King-level Immortal too severely.
