The Fleeing Tianyang Venerable

“Where?” Luo Feng pressed, barely containing his excitement. Niuzhou Venerable immediately provided all the detailed Primitive Star coordinates.

“Thank you.”

Luo Feng expressed his gratitude.

“No problem,” Niuzhou Venerable replied, curious. “You’re so interested in Tianyang Venerable. Is there a grudge? He’s a Universe Overlord, after all…”

“A friend’s request,” Luo Feng simply stated.

“Oh,” Niuzhou Venerable nodded in understanding.

…

Above the Primitive Star, Luo Feng, who had been flying in a silver streak of light towards one direction, suddenly arced and flew in another.

“I’ve waited so many years for this! I sought out the fourth black metal plate to enhance my strength precisely for this day!” Luo Feng, clad in silver armor and wings, his eyes filled with anticipation. He couldn’t forget the intense summons from the Shiwu Wings. He believed that once the Shiwu Wings and that black wing were together, a qualitative change would occur.

One must know, the more powerful a True Treasure, the harder it is to obtain.

In the past year, he had killed 82 Universe High-level Venerables and 5 Universe Overlords. However, the 82 Universe High-level Venerables combined only yielded 6 Ordinary True Treasures, and the 5 Universe Overlords combined yielded 18 Ordinary True Treasures and 4 High-level True Treasures (Ordinary True Treasure sets were also counted as High-level True Treasures). Even adding the valuable items in their World Rings…

The total value amounted to only 60-70 True Treasure points.

Still not enough to exchange for a Top-tier True Treasure!

Top-tier True Treasures were already coveted by Universe Masters. Under normal circumstances, even Top-tier True Treasure weapons were typically reserved for Universe Masters! As for Peak True Treasures, like the ‘Calamity Armor,’ they were even rarer and harder to come by. Even Blaze Emperor found it extremely difficult to acquire one.

“I’ve already killed five Universe Overlords, though they all attacked me out of greed. But now, the news is spreading, and it’s hard to encounter such uninformed Universe Overlords anymore,” Luo Feng mused. “I’m already considered extremely wealthy among Universe Overlords, but a Top-tier True Treasure… is still a bit out of reach.”

“But once I get that other wing… once they merge…” Luo Feng grew even more expectant.

This single gain would likely surpass all his accumulated kills over the past year.

Whoosh!

Luo Feng swiftly flew towards the spatial vortex leading to Primitive Star number 02881.

…

Primitive Star number 02881.

“It seemed to be a Hong Alliance Universe Venerable just now; they discovered me.” The mechanical race expert, the eight-armed bald man ‘Tianyang Venerable,’ suddenly emerged from the tall grass. As a mechanical being, his divine body also possessed characteristics of technological weapons, such as his head being able to see in all directions.

His vigilance was extremely high.

“My whereabouts cannot be exposed now.”

“Just in case, I should leave quickly.” A cold glint flashed in Tianyang Venerable’s eyes. He immediately flapped the black wings on his back, breaking through the air and soaring away.

…

The sky was dim, and a Golden Horned Beast hovered high above, scanning its surroundings.

“It’s here.”

“According to Niuzhou Venerable’s intelligence, it’s in this area.” Golden Horn Luo Feng scanned below. Because his Earthling True Body’s reputation was too great now, even Universe Overlords generally avoided him. To prevent Tianyang Venerable from being scared away too early, Luo Feng had come in his Golden Horned Beast clone form.

Moreover, the Golden Horned Beast clone wasn’t using the Shiwu Wings, so… Tianyang Venerable wouldn’t discover him in advance.

“Nothing!”

“Not here?” Golden Horn Luo Feng was slightly puzzled, carefully observing the wild grass. The grass grew very tall, and if a powerful being was lurking inside, it would be impossible to spot without careful inspection.

“Rumble~~~”

An endless golden tide instantly spread out, covering this land, penetrating every inch of the grass and other areas. It instantly enveloped and filled a vast area with a radius of 30 million kilometers. Within this range, no powerful being could escape the scrutiny of this Domain-type True Treasure.

“No powerful beings?” Golden Horn Luo Feng grew even more confused. “Although it took a considerable amount of time to fly here, it was only a little over two days. Universe Venerables often hide on Primitive Stars, waiting for opportunities, and it’s normal for them to wait for a year or even half a year. How could he be gone?”

Golden Horn Luo Feng looked around, the world vast and boundless.

He couldn’t determine where Tianyang Venerable had gone.

Yet, the Shiwu Wings hidden in his World Ring were restless, clearly sensing a location.

“Never mind,” Golden Horn Luo Feng growled. The endless golden tide instantly vanished. At the same time, a True Treasure, the ‘Shiwu Wings,’ emerged from his World Ring and directly integrated into his scaled wings. The ‘Beast God Armor’ then cooperated with the Shiwu Wings. It should be noted that while the ‘Beast God Armor’ was a set, its original design did not include wings.

However…

By integrating those scaled True Treasures onto the ‘scaled wings,’ it still achieved a very high defensive effect. But in terms of flight, it couldn’t compare to these ‘Shiwu Wings.’ Now, with the two cooperating, the effect was naturally excellent.

“Buzz, buzz, buzz~~~” A strong summons emanated from one direction. The Shiwu Wings trembled as if wanting to break free and fly towards it.

“It’s right there!”

Golden Horn Luo Feng looked towards the distant left.

This intense summons was just like before, clearly caused by Tianyang Venerable’s black wing.

“This time, I won’t let you escape.” Golden Horn Luo Feng swiftly flapped his wings, his speed rapidly increasing, continuously climbing until it reached near light speed, then he flew in a straight line towards that direction.

…

Hundreds of millions of kilometers away from Luo Feng, in a swamp, Tianyang Venerable’s skin had completely turned murky. He lay submerged in the swamp. If not for divine power or domain-based detection… he would be invisible to the naked eye.

“Buzz, buzz, buzz~~” Tianyang Venerable’s flowing light wings also trembled. The intense summons made them unable to calm down.

“Hmm?”

Splash!

A bald metal head emerged from the swamp, its cold gaze fixed on the distance.

“It’s him, that Golden Horned Beast. I sensed you the moment you arrived on this Primitive Star, but I didn’t expect you to fly in my direction.” Tianyang Venerable’s eyes were filled with a cold light. He certainly hadn’t forgotten their encounter nearly twenty thousand years ago. That Golden Horned Beast possessed a True Treasure wing that was extremely important to him. In that battle, the Golden Horned Beast’s strength was clearly weaker, yet it relied on its powerful True Treasure armor and massive divine body, causing him to suffer a disadvantage.

“That hateful fellow, bothering me again?” Tianyang Venerable gritted his teeth. “His strength is clearly inferior to mine, but he has at least High-level True Treasure armor, and his divine body is huge. Fighting him… my divine body would be exhausted, while he wouldn’t have consumed much.”

“Damn it.”

“If your divine body wasn’t so massive, I would definitely fight you.” Tianyang Venerable gritted his teeth fiercely.

Boom!

He immediately transformed into a streak of light and flew in one direction.

…

The Golden Horned Beast could vaguely sense the location from which the summons emanated, but as he flew towards it, the source of the summons also moved, continuously flying further away.

“He’s fleeing?” Golden Horn Luo Feng was astonished.

“Why is he fleeing?”

In their last battle, Tianyang Venerable had the upper hand. Luo Feng only gained a slight advantage by relying on his large divine body, but Tianyang Venerable still controlled the flow of battle. He shouldn’t be so scared as to flee just by sensing him, right?

“If you flee, I’ll chase.”

“Let’s see how long you can run.” Luo Feng maintained his maximum speed in pursuit.

…

An eight-armed bald mechanical race expert and a Golden Horned Beast flew, one in front, one behind, separated by hundreds of millions of kilometers.

But no matter how Tianyang Venerable flew, the Golden Horned Beast could clearly sense his location, making it impossible for him to escape.

“Damn it.”

“Why is he still chasing! Does he think he can fight me if he catches up? Besides Universe Masters, even top-tier Universe Overlords might not be able to kill me. Damn it—if it weren’t for this critical moment, I would teach you a harsh lesson.” Tianyang Venerable was fuming from being chased for so long.

But he forcibly suppressed the rage in his heart.

“To another Primitive Star.” Tianyang Venerable saw a spatial vortex in the distance and immediately flew into it, passing through to another Primitive Star.

About half an hour later.

The Golden Horned Beast also arrived.

“According to the sensation, he disappeared at this location.” The Golden Horned Beast saw the spatial vortex in the distance. “Even if he self-destructed, that wing wouldn’t be destroyed, and I should still be able to sense it. Clearly, he entered another Primitive Star.”

Boom!

The Golden Horned Beast also passed through the spatial vortex, arriving at the other Primitive Star.

…

After entering the new Primitive Star, Tianyang Venerable flew for about a hundred million kilometers before temporarily stopping and concealing himself: “That hateful Golden Horned Beast knows he can’t catch me, and he can’t do anything to me. He probably won’t chase, right?” But just a moment later, that familiar intense summons returned, and the black wings on his back trembled.

“Damn it!!!” Tianyang Venerable was utterly enraged.

“Golden Horned Beast!” Tianyang Venerable hated it. If it weren’t for this critical moment where he didn’t want to expose himself, he could have fled openly, or even summoned mechanical race experts to take the opportunity to destroy this Golden Horned Beast.

“Alright, alright, alright, I’ll wait for you.”

“Let you know… the gap between you and me.” Tianyang Venerable was completely furious. He stood silently in the heart of the forest, waiting.

…

Luo Feng was also very puzzled: “Huh, he’s not fleeing anymore, that’s strange. Whatever, not fleeing is a good thing.” Luo Feng was equally confident… unless a Universe Master personally descended, Luo Feng truly feared no one.

Boom!

The Golden Horned Beast swiftly flew towards the location. In just a moment, it reached the sky above the forest, then directly swooped down, flying towards the clearly sensed position of the other wing.

“Hateful Golden Horned Beast.”

The eight-armed mechanical race bald man stood on a treetop, his black wings slightly flapping, looking coldly at Luo Feng.

“Tianyang Venerable,” the Golden Horned Beast quickly flew over.

“Damn it!”

Tianyang Venerable roared in anger, the suppressed fury from being chased for so long completely erupting. Rumble~~~ The world suddenly plunged into endless black light. The Golden Horned Beast, which had been flying at extreme speed, immediately felt as if it had fallen into a quagmire, its speed sharply decreasing.

“It’s a Domain-type True Treasure!” Golden Horn Luo Feng was shocked. When did this Tianyang Venerable acquire a Domain-type True Treasure?
