Shi Wu Wings' Second Form

The dilapidated farmlands, overgrown with weeds, vaguely showed the shadows of several monsters. The long-cracked highway was littered with various ruined cars, some overturned, the dust on the road narrating its history. A lone figure walked along this highway.

"Protected zone?" Luo Feng walked on the ruined highway, recalling the distant past when his younger, naive self first joined the Fire Hammer Squad to venture into the wilderness.

He still remembered Chen Gu, who had treated him exceptionally well with his thermal weapons...

Zhang Ke, who once lost an arm...

The Wei family brothers, skilled with curved blades...

And of course, the formidable Captain Gao with his twin wind hammers...

"Over a hundred thousand years have passed," Luo Feng shook his head with a smile. Some of those brothers with whom he had shared hardships back then... Luo Feng had spent most of his time adventuring in the cosmos, rarely even seeing his family, let alone these old friends, whom he had only met a few times. However, the Luo family had always secretly helped these old friends without interfering with their lives. Yet, time was merciless, and more than half of his old companions had grown old and passed away.

Although the Luo family possessed endless wealth, the resources for their own descendants were strictly controlled.

While they helped their old friends, they wouldn't forcefully elevate their strength to Universe-level or Domain Lord-level.

...

Even now, Earth still retained several protected zones. These protected zones were remnants from the 'Base City Era,' where some monsters were preserved as rare animals! They were allowed to live freely within these zones. Due to the immense passage of time, the cracked highways, overturned cars, and dilapidated residential buildings were actually 'reconstructed and renovated.'

New materials were used, capable of enduring extremely long periods.

The appearance was merely aged, as it was impossible for the concrete and other materials from back then to remain intact for over a hundred thousand years. Furthermore, to visit these 'protected zones,' one had to travel by spaceship, observing from high altitude. Trespassing was forbidden, as was attacking the monsters within.

Of course...

Luo Feng entered with a single teleportation, and as the highest authority of Earth's defense system, he naturally encountered no obstacles.

"Swoosh!"

Luo Feng leaped up, directly onto the rooftop of a six-story residential building. He sat down, gazing at the bright moon in the sky, listening to the faint roars of beasts from within the protected zone.

"It feels a bit like the old days," Luo Feng murmured.

"Hmm?"

Luo Feng's brow furrowed slightly.

Whoosh!

He vanished from the rooftop.

...

Approximately 800 light-years from Earth, in a stretch of starry sky, lay a majestic and magnificent complex of palaces. Palaces rose and fell, one after another, and powerful guards could vaguely be seen. Sector Lord-level guards and even Undying guards patrolled the winding corridors, tens of thousands of kilometers long, maintaining a strict and solemn atmosphere.

This was Luo Feng's Divine Temple residence.

Inside the most majestic main hall of the palace complex, flames burned beside each of the 12 colossal pillars. A towering figure suddenly appeared on the throne in the great hall—it was Luo Feng, tens of thousands of kilometers tall, looking down at the three figures below the Divine Temple.

"Greetings, Lord Yinhe."

The three figures bowed simultaneously.

"Ganwu, Niuzhou, Beiming," Luo Feng looked down, smiling. "You've all worked hard these past days." These three had been handling various miscellaneous tasks as he instructed, and only today had they completely resolved everything and returned. Of course, he had to meet these three meritorious officials, and in the years to come, there would be plenty of opportunities for these three Universe Venerables to serve.

"It is our honor to serve the Lord," Universe Venerable Niuzhou said, looking up. Universe Master Ganwu and Universe Venerable Beiming also looked up at Luo Feng.

Luo Feng smiled and nodded: "From now on, you three will preside over everything here. If anything arises, you can contact me directly through the Virtual Universe. If it's urgent, you can crush the token I gave you."

"Yes," the three Universe Venerables bowed.

Luo Feng nodded: "Go."

Universe Master Ganwu, Universe Venerable Niuzhou, and Universe Venerable Beiming bowed slightly, then left the great hall.

Luo Feng, tens of thousands of kilometers tall, rested his hands directly on the armrests of the throne, looking up at the majestic Divine Temple. This Divine Temple was tens of thousands of kilometers high; even Luo Feng, with a single glance, felt as if this majestic main hall of the Divine Temple was like the endless starry sky itself.

"No wonder Divine Temples are bigger than each other," Luo Feng murmured.

"Hmm, for a while, I've been focusing all my efforts on researching the second level of the Star Tower. Yet, the second level of the Shi Wu Wings, which is supposedly less difficult than the Star Tower, has remained elusive. During this quiet time on Earth, I'll dedicate myself to cultivation and focus on studying the Shi Wu Wings first." Luo Feng's figure instantly vanished.

This place was less than a thousand light-years from Earth; a single teleportation was enough to reach it.

As for the three Universe Venerables, numerous Undying guards, a large number of Sector Lord guards, and many attendants... they were arranged by the Virtual Universe Company! Under normal circumstances, a Universe Master would select some Universe Venerables as disciples. There were only so many Universe Masters in the human race, and most were unwilling to take on many disciples. Therefore, most Universe Venerables could not become disciples of a Universe Master!

Chaos City Lord had suggested Luo Feng take disciples, but Luo Feng needed to focus on comprehending and cultivating, and secondly, his understanding of laws hadn't reached the Universe Master level. So, he hadn't taken any disciples. In the end, he only selected three Universe Venerables to help him manage affairs.

These Universe Venerables, directly subordinate to Luo Feng, were essentially relying on Luo Feng as a powerful backer!

Having a backer and not having one was completely different.

Luo Feng first chose 'Universe Master Ganwu' and 'Universe Venerable Niuzhou,' with whom he had good relations. Then Universe Master Ganwu recommended his friend 'Universe Venerable Beiming.' Thus... these three Universe Venerables came under Luo Feng's command, directly subordinate to him. With Luo Feng as their backer, at least Universe Master Ganwu wouldn't fall into such a difficult situation as he once did.

"Ganwu, your help in speaking up allowed me to serve under the Lord. This favor..."

"Beiming, you and I have a life-and-death friendship, and you've helped me many times. This is nothing."

Universe Master Ganwu, Universe Venerable Niuzhou, and Universe Venerable Beiming had all turned their fortunes around.

Having a backer truly made a difference.

It should be noted that as soon as they pledged allegiance to Luo Feng, each was bestowed a common supreme treasure! This was enough to make other Universe Venerables who hadn't been able to serve under a Universe Master envious and jealous.

...

Luo Feng constructed a fixed passage, connecting his Divine Kingdom and Earth!

He could easily return to his Divine Kingdom from Earth... and quickly reach Earth from his Divine Kingdom. With this fixed passage, even with spatial tremors and other various situations, nothing could hinder his arrival.

...

Silent years slipped away, and in the blink of an eye, twelve years had passed.

"Haha, these Shi Wu Wings were harder than I expected. It took a full 12 years, but I've finally comprehended the second level."

Whoosh!

With a single teleportation, Luo Feng instantly moved from the Luo family estate on Earth to a silent starry sky several hundred light-years away. He dared not recklessly test the power of the Shi Wu Wings' second form on Earth. With his current strength, even a slight burst from the Shi Wu Wings could cause Earth to disintegrate, leading to irreparable regret.

In the silent starry sky, stars shone brightly.

Luo Feng, clad in silver armor and silver wings, stood in the starry sky, his eyes filled with anticipation: "Let me see the power of these Shi Wu Wings' second form."

These 'four-winged' Shi Wu Wings were a top-tier supreme treasure. Its first form alone was far stronger than the second form of the 'two-winged' Shi Wu Wings from back then. Now, this second form should be even more powerful than the third form of the 'two-winged' Shi Wu Wings.

The first form... was named 'Chaotic Space-Time.'

So, what about the second form?

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle~~~" Countless burning divine power surged into the Shi Wu Wings on his back, rapidly extending along the intricate secret patterns. Precisely activating each carving, it instantly activated the entire second layer of carvings on the Shi Wu Wings. Immediately, the silver wings began to transform.

Each feather became sharper, and golden threads intertwined around them, adding golden patterns to the entire wing, emanating an aura of noble power.

This mere pressure alone made the Shi Wu Wings stronger than ordinary top-tier supreme treasures.

"Boom!!!"

Vast... the endless starry sky was enveloped by a faint, indistinct golden light, boundless and infinite.

Luo Feng stood stunned in mid-air.

He remained silent for a long time.

The power of the Shi Wu Wings' second form, no matter how strong, shouldn't have shocked Luo Feng. But the power the Shi Wu Wings displayed at this moment completely astonished him.

"This, this..." Luo Feng looked around in all directions.

"At 1.2 light-years away, a Star-level alien beast lives on that planet." Luo Feng then turned his head in another direction. "At 2.9 light-years away from me, a construction team from the entire Milky Way Galaxy is modifying that planet."

"At 3.8 light-years away, a spaceship is continuously flying."

"At 19.6 light-years away, a Sector Lord squad from my Divine Temple is patrolling the starry sky."

...

Vast and mighty, centered around Luo Feng, a radius of 80 light-years was enveloped by an invisible, ethereal golden light! This entire golden light-covered area was under Luo Feng's control, a complete mastery within his heart.

"How can this be, how can this be..."

The more Luo Feng sensed everything, the more he was shocked. "Even a Universe Master, when controlling a region of space-time, wouldn't have such an absurdly large range!"

"Suppress!"

With a single activation from Luo Feng, the space-time within this 80-light-year radius instantly saw its binding power greatly increase, causing the speed of spaceships far within this starry range to sharply decrease, and some planets even began to tremble. Fortunately, Luo Feng deliberately controlled it; otherwise, at full power, those planets would have long since been annihilated.

"Full suppression." Luo Feng pointed at a distant star.

Boom~~~

That star, along with its three large planets and numerous smaller planets, was instantly annihilated and vanished under a power capable of destroying Universe Venerables. That entire star system disappeared from the starry sky.

"What immense power." Luo Feng applied the full suppression to himself, immediately feeling an overwhelming pressure. "It's even stronger than the oppressive binding of a Universe Master controlling a region of space-time!"

Luo Feng had personally experienced the binding of a Universe Master controlling space-time!

So he could clearly judge... his control over this vast cosmic space with an 80-light-year radius was a full notch stronger than a Universe Master's control over a region of space-time. Of course, it was definitely weaker than a Universe Supreme Being's control over cosmic space!

"In terms of range! In terms of power! It's stronger than a Universe Master's control over a region of space-time."

"My Shi Wu Wings..."

Luo Feng was overjoyed. "The first form causes space-time to become chaotic, and the second form is complete control over space-time! And it surpasses a Universe Master's control, with a far greater range." As Luo Feng deliberately controlled it, the vast, hazy golden light rapidly shrank. In the blink of an eye, it reduced from an 80-light-year radius to just around Luo Feng.

"The range can be large or small."

"The power is absolute." Luo Feng smiled. "From now on, with this move, I naturally control space-time. Who would dare doubt that I am not a Universe Master? Haha..." The activation of the Shi Wu Wings' second form possessed such power; it was indeed an unexpected yet extremely delightful gain for Luo Feng.

"The second form of the Shi Wu Wings shall be called..." Luo Feng, clad in silver armor and silver wings, enveloped by endless golden light, softly spoke, "The Golden Kingdom!"
