Berserk

“Luo Feng, those two True Masters are inside the abyss. Their senses are very keen. To avoid detection, my speed won't exceed a hundred times the speed of light. So, it will take about five days to reach you,” Zuoshanke said. Luo Feng’s heart stirred. He still had three final areas he hadn't visited, and his teacher seemed quite far away. He could definitely explore one more area. “Teacher, let's meet at another location then.” Luo Feng immediately reported the closest of the remaining three areas. “Alright, I’ll need about six days to get there,” Zuoshanke replied. He then cut off communication. Holding the token, Luo Feng was no longer anxious; only excitement and anticipation filled him, his eyes gleaming. “Once Teacher Zuoshanke arrives, all danger will vanish! As soon as he knew I was in the abyss, he rushed here immediately...” In his heart, he had always been quite wary of Zuoshanke. But Zuoshanke’s swift arrival this time filled Luo Feng’s heart with warmth. ... Six days later. Amidst the rolling, icy mountain ranges, the surface of the solid ice was wreathed in Frozen Lake Thunderfire. The blood-colored Star Tower was nestled within this swirling Frozen Lake Thunderfire, completely invisible to the naked eye. “Of the last three areas, I’ve searched this one too, and found nothing!” “So, only two areas remain.” Luo Feng desperately craved the last two scales of the Extermination God Armor. Without those final two scales, the entire Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor would be incomplete. “Luo Feng!” A message suddenly transmitted. Luo Feng’s face lit up with joy. Holding the token, he immediately sent a voice transmission: “Teacher, I’m here.” “Come over. I’ve arrived. I’m at the peak of that triangular mountain,” Zuoshanke said. “Triangular mountain peak?” Luo Feng immediately understood. This area of rolling, icy mountain ranges had numerous peaks, many of them peculiar, some resembling Rubik’s Cubes. Indeed, there was one peak that, when viewed from the side, appeared triangular, as smooth as if cleaved by a blade. Swoosh! The blood-colored pyramid swiftly flew out of the Frozen Lake Thunderfire, soaring towards the peak. It passed over numerous mountains and soon spotted the triangular peak, smooth as if carved. It flew directly to the summit, where scattered icy rocks were visible everywhere, but Zuoshanke was nowhere to be seen. “Teacher, I’ve arrived. Where are you?” Luo Feng asked repeatedly. Whoosh! Among the frozen rocks on the mountain peak, one rock changed color, turning dark green, and then floated up. Simultaneously, a tiny cave, small enough for perhaps only an ant to crawl through, appeared on its surface. “Come in.” “Yes.” The Star Tower, like a speck of dust, flew directly into the cave. Inside the rock, however, it was incredibly magnificent, like an inner world made of glazed glass. Numerous small worlds were scattered within it, and after Luo Feng entered... he was directly guided into one of the core worlds. This vast core world teemed with life, even countless animals, plants, and other races, including humans. “Teacher.” Luo Feng immediately spotted Zuoshanke standing on a distant mountain peak. “Hmm?” Zuoshanke turned his head, his gaze quickly focusing on the black armor Luo Feng wore. He frowned, examining it closely, then said, “This is... the Extermination God Armor?” “Yes,” Luo Feng replied with a smile and a nod. He had intentionally allowed his teacher to discover it; otherwise, with a thought, he could slightly alter its color and form, making it naturally difficult to identify. “Your harvest this time is quite significant. To think you obtained this Extermination God Armor. I’ve long heard of its renown, but never seen it,” Zuoshanke said. “Let me examine it closely.” “Yes.” Luo Feng knew his teacher was a supreme existence in crafting ultimate treasures. With a thought, the semi-finished Extermination God Armor immediately flew towards him. Zuoshanke stood there, extending his hands to hold the Extermination God Armor, examining it meticulously, even scrutinizing the secret patterns on its surface. The more he looked, the deeper his frown became. “It’s called...” Zuoshanke turned to Luo Feng, “The Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor?” “Teacher, how did you know?” Luo Feng was startled. This Extermination God Armor had been with Wu Hun Master before and hadn't been circulated. Its true name, ‘Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor,’ should have been unknown to other powerhouses. Zuoshanke chuckled softly. “Naturally, your teacher has had some special encounters, so I’ve long known of the Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor’s existence. However, this is my first time examining it closely, and only now do I realize... Wu Hun Master’s Extermination God Armor is indeed the Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor. This is also a supreme treasure, but there’s one thing you must remember.” Luo Feng listened intently. “The Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor, once you enter a berserk state, the more berserk you become, the more its power will gradually increase. However—once you lose your self-awareness and fall into a state of absolute madness, you will be unable to awaken on your own. Another powerhouse must awaken you within a short period! If no powerhouse breaks your berserk state and awakens you... you will permanently lose your self-awareness,” Zuoshanke explained. Luo Feng’s expression changed drastically. “This disciple will remember.” Fortunately, his teacher had guided him. “Hmph.” Zuoshanke let out a soft snort, his eyes seemingly piercing through endless time and space. “The Universe Ocean is unfathomably mysterious; I only learned some of this knowledge by chance. You needn't worry. When using the Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor, control your inner self and don't let the madness control you. Once your will can rival that of the universe’s strongest, then no matter how berserk you become, this Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor won't be able to make you lose your self-awareness.” “Also, it seems this armor is incomplete?” Zuoshanke looked at Luo Feng. “Yes,” Luo Feng nodded. “This disciple has some other scales, but currently, the last two scales are missing, preventing many of the scales from fusing. I still have two final places to investigate, and I believe those two scales should be in those areas.” “Where? I’ll accompany you,” Zuoshanke chuckled. “Obtaining the Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor is a great help to you.” ... Luo Feng immediately set off with Teacher Zuoshanke to the last two areas. On the third day. “I feel it, I feel the summons! It’s in that direction.” Luo Feng pointed remotely in a direction, and the rock immediately turned, speeding towards it. This rock was an ultimate treasure personally refined by Zuoshanke, crafted with immense effort and at great cost. Normally, it transformed into a mountain peak... Zuoshanke typically sat atop this peak, and it was widely recognized in the Universe Ocean as a supreme ultimate treasure. However, Luo Feng only learned during a previous conversation with his teacher that... while this ‘Zuoshanke Peak’ had numerous functions, it still hadn't reached the level of a ‘supreme ultimate treasure.’ Zuoshanke had said: “I am a unique special lifeform. This ultimate treasure I refined is most compatible with my life... and I crafted it myself, even integrating wondrous objects into it, making it indestructible. Although it’s not a supreme ultimate treasure, in my hands, it’s not far off from one.” “What suits you best is the best,” Zuoshanke then added. “Of course, in the vast Universe Ocean, no one can compare to me when it comes to refining ultimate treasures. Other powerhouses, however, must go and seek ultimate treasures.” Luo Feng was speechless. Who else could be so formidable? He had provided his disciple with the Star Tower and the Zuoshanke Peak. Moreover, Zuoshanke possessed countless methods, always unpredictable, and to this day, no one in the vast Universe Ocean knew Zuoshanke’s true strength. This was because Zuoshanke never engaged in direct confrontations! He always relied on various means to force other universe’s strongest beings into awkward situations, making many factions unwilling to offend this ‘lone strongest being, Zuoshanke.’ “It’s there.” “In that direction,” Luo Feng guided. Boom! The flying rock broke through numerous obstacles, only to crash into the endless, icy ground. “There’s no way in,” Zuoshanke said. “But I feel it, it’s right below,” Luo Feng insisted. Zuoshanke also frowned. Below was an endless expanse of ice, incredibly thick, without the slightest crack. “I’ve been to the abyss before. This endless ice earth is indestructible,” Zuoshanke murmured. “And it’s completely frozen solid. Those two scales couldn’t possibly have flown down there.” “But the sensation is definitely from below,” Luo Feng also wondered. “I haven’t heard of anyone being able to break through the endless ice layer,” Zuoshanke said, helpless. “Let me think.” “Teacher, let me go out and take a look too,” Luo Feng said. “Alright,” Zuoshanke nodded. He couldn’t think of a solution immediately, and perhaps Luo Feng might get lucky. Immediately, Luo Feng, riding the blood-colored pyramid, and Zuoshanke, riding the Zuoshanke Peak, began to investigate this endless ice earth. ... High above Flame Water Lake, within the swirling Frozen Lake Thunderfire. Rumble~~~ A giant axe tore through space and time, impacting the Frozen Lake Thunderfire with terrifying speed. It shot upwards at ultra-high velocity, flying towards the very top. Once the endless abyss black hole appeared, the giant axe immediately began to decelerate. “Arrived!” “I rushed here from the Tilted Peak Sector, which took a bit more time. If the God-Eye Clan’s universe’s strongest beings also advanced at full speed, they’ve probably arrived too.” After decelerating, the giant axe then followed the suction force, flying directly into the endless, dark abyss. ... Deep within the Ninth Abyss, the endless ice earth. The blood-colored pyramid and the dark green rock both flew above the endless ice earth, investigating. But two full days passed, and they found no solution. “Logically, if the two scales are down there, I should be able to get in,” Luo Feng fretted. “Hahaha, Luo Feng, I’ve found it! I’ve found a way to get in,” Zuoshanke’s voice rang out. “Come over, to me.” “Found it? Yes, I’m coming!” Luo Feng was instantly excited. The blood-colored pyramid immediately flew into the dark green rock. Zuoshanke chuckled confidently. “The Twelve Abysses are notoriously barren of ultimate treasures, and few powerhouses are willing to enter. Who would have thought this endless ice layer held such profound mysteries? This endless ice layer... is very special. Looking across the Universe Ocean, among the three reincarnation eras and two holy land universes, perhaps no more than three beings could uncover the mysteries of this ice layer. Your teacher, I, can claim to be second to none in refining ultimate treasures, and it still took me this long to discover its secrets. If it were you, young man... even if you cultivated here to become a Universe Master, I fear you still wouldn’t be able to enter this endless ice layer.” “Teacher, Teacher, let’s just go in,” Luo Feng couldn’t help but interrupt his teacher’s self-aggrandizement. “I’m quite curious myself. Watch my methods!” Boom~~~~ The entire dark green mountain peak suddenly swelled, then directly descended onto the ice layer. Immediately after, the dark green mountain peak emitted countless rays of light. These lights twisted, forming innumerable secret patterns, and began to bore into the endless ice layer. In an instant, a colossal secret pattern diagram, spanning tens of billions of kilometers, appeared on the vast, endless ice layer.
