Divine Blood

Luo Feng was reluctant to use the 'Source' within the Slaying Wu Wings lightly. He had two main ideas for it. One was to use the energy stored within the Source to restore the Slaying Wu Wings when he eventually acquired the other three pairs of wings for the complete wing supreme treasure. Just as the Slaying Wu Wings had previously absorbed vast amounts of energy to recover from hidden damage, such high-tier treasures, even mechanical ones, required energy to self-repair. At his current level, Luo Feng's energy was too low to restore a super-treasure like the Slaying Wu Wings. This was one idea.

The other idea was to use it as a trump card! Each blade of energy was more terrifying than an attack from a Cosmic Overlord, capable of shattering even top-tier Palace Supreme Treasures! If billions of blade energies erupted simultaneously, not randomly but bursting from the edges of the white wing, even an Ultimate Supreme Treasure would likely be pulverized! A Cosmic Overlord would undoubtedly be annihilated beyond recovery!

Of course, this move could only be used once.

“I should first try to find the other three pairs of wings and absorb energy to restore them. The remaining blade energy would then be sufficient for attacks,” Luo Feng mused. In truth, the Source contained immense energy; only a fraction would be needed to kill a Cosmic Overlord, but he couldn't utilize it effectively for anything other than a single, all-out attack.

The Tomb Mausoleum Boat departed the Tilted Peak Sector, heading towards the Original Universe.

“Master! The wings are damaged. When you infuse divine power to activate them, the divine power passing through these damaged areas will be greatly affected. This will severely impact their performance,” Slaying Wu transmitted. “Therefore, it must devour some precious materials. Generally, the main materials used to craft peak supreme treasures are of the required caliber. Devouring a peak supreme treasure directly would also work, but the cost is too high.”

“And more importantly…”

“There are still three divine bloodstains on the white wing. These three bloodstains also have a significant impact. However, with the three pairs of wings now merged, expelling them should be relatively easy. But if the sixth pair of wings could be fully repaired, the expulsion would be even faster.”

During the journey back to the Original Universe, Slaying Wu Wings frequently brought this up. After all, being damaged and constantly having to suppress the divine bloodstains naturally made it eager for a solution.

“I will collect materials once I return. It’s just that I have very few suitable materials with me right now,” Luo Feng communicated with Slaying Wu.

He did possess some supreme treasures. During the inheritance trial, many powerful beings were ultimately annihilated. However, before accepting the basic inheritance, the powerhouses who proactively withdrew from various factions had already departed with their Ultimate Supreme Treasures, peak supreme treasures, and many other important treasures! This was because every powerhouse had witnessed the deaths of the two true masters of the God-Eye Clan, understanding that even Ultimate Supreme Treasure palaces couldn't protect them. Knowing that only one would survive the basic inheritance, almost all of them went in empty-handed, without their treasures.

However—

Some powerhouses had fallen during the battle with the monster Kui Luo! Universe Masters had been killed in the Rhinoceros Emperor Game, affecting even undying beings! And a large number of powerhouses from the God-Eye Clan lineage had been slain… Ultimately, two Ultimate Supreme Treasures and one precious supreme treasure were given by Duan Dong River to the 'Thunder-Clad Demon God'. But the other supreme treasures carried by the two true masters, along with the supreme treasures of over a dozen Universe Masters, were all within the Tomb Mausoleum Boat, naturally becoming Luo Feng's.

Therefore…

Luo Feng’s greatest true gains were primarily the numerous supreme treasures from the slain God-Eye Clan powerhouses, excluding the three items mentioned.

“It’s just that they came to accept the inheritance prepared for their demise, so many didn’t bring their supreme treasures,” Luo Feng sighed inwardly. “In total, there are only three peak domain-type, peak palace-type, and peak soul-type treasures combined! As for ordinary peak supreme treasures, top-tier domain-type, and palace-type… there are only 12 of these in total. Anything below that is not worth mentioning, not even qualifying to be devoured by the Slaying Wu Wings for restoration.”

Such treasures were probably equivalent to the net worth of a Cosmic Overlord (excluding Ultimate Supreme Treasures). It could only be said that very few who came for the inheritance carried precious supreme treasures, unless they were like the Seventh True Master, who attempted to rely on the Ice Cliff Fortress for survival.

“Master,” Slaying Wu transmitted.

“Hmm?” Luo Feng listened.

“This sixth pair of wings originally had four bloodstains. Over the long years, one bloodstain was expelled, forming a drop of divine blood,” Slaying Wu explained.

“Divine blood?” Luo Feng was startled.

Due to the damage to the sixth pair of wings and the influence of the bloodstains, divine power infusion would be greatly affected. His previous practice had relied purely on brute force. He hadn't truly inspected this sixth pair of wings (the complete wing supreme treasure consists of six pairs; Luo Feng initially obtained the first and second pairs, the white wing was the sixth pair, and he still lacked the third, fourth, and fifth pairs).

“The divine blood should be the bloodstain of an enemy of the wing supreme treasure’s previous owner.”

“It contains boundless power.”

“Master, you cannot envelop it with your divine power. First, force it out through the wing… then let the Star Tower contain it. Afterward, you can study it slowly,” Slaying Wu advised.

“Alright.”

Luo Feng was very excited and expectant. Divine blood? The divine blood of a super-being capable of damaging the complete Slaying Wu Wings? The will emanating from just that bloodstain was so strong; such divine blood would have many uses.

Under Luo Feng’s control, a crystal-red drop, surrounded by layers of dense black light, gradually emerged from the surface of the white wing. The moment this drop of blood appeared, it naturally fell, landing on the floor of the Star Tower’s control room. The floor immediately indented, as if forming a small bowl. The drop of divine blood landed perfectly, then flowed within the concave bowl, forming a sphere, completely enveloping the divine blood.

“Ordinary treasures really can’t bear this divine blood,” Luo Feng mused. At least his divine power couldn't.

When cultivators reached the undying level, their bodies became fully energy-based, with their life imprint branded onto every bit of energy. However, upon becoming a Cosmic Overlord, they returned to their origin, with multiple clones merging into one, completely 'materializing' from an 'energized' state. They could also burn flesh and blood to fight, and the flesh and blood of super-beings had other uses.

“This drop of divine blood contains immense energy and an extremely strong will suppression,” Luo Feng thought. “Under the current conditions in the Universe Ocean, it would likely be difficult to unleash the energy of this divine blood. However, crafting this drop of divine blood into a soul-attack treasure wouldn’t be hard. One would only need to focus the will impact within this divine blood in one direction.”

The crushing will of the divine blood spread in all directions, requiring a Universe Master at their absolute limit to withstand it even in its presence. But if it were focused in one direction, like sunlight instantly turning into a laser, its power could instantly surge a hundred or a thousandfold… even a Cosmic Overlord’s will might barely be able to resist it.

“At that time!”

“Just this will impact, if used in battle, would immediately cause Universe Masters with weaker wills to kneel in agony,” Luo Feng smiled. “Even a Cosmic Overlord’s will, though capable of continuing to fight, would likely be caught off guard and affected by a sudden will impact.”

Divine blood—

Its energy could be unleashed! It could be used to contaminate Ultimate Supreme Treasures! Its will suppression could be utilized!

The first method was currently impossible, the second was too wasteful of the divine blood, and the third was the most suitable. Moreover, he happened to have a teacher in the Universe Ocean who was considered the best at refining treasures!

“But these are just my ideas; whether they can be realized is hard to say.”

“I don’t have the ability to refine such a treasure.”

“Once I return to the Original Universe, I’ll go find my teacher, Sitting Mountain Guest, and hear his thoughts,” Luo Feng mused. Teacher Sitting Mountain Guest was truly proficient in this field and would know how to effectively utilize this drop of divine blood.

Tsk, tsk…

A drop of blood from a super-being of an ancient civilization! An existence capable of damaging the 'complete six pairs of wings,' which were even more powerful than many Ultimate Supreme Treasures, how strong must such a being be? No wonder just a single drop of blood possessed such immense power.

“Slaying Wu! I don’t have many supreme treasures, and the human race doesn’t have that many precious materials. So—I’ll arrange for my Golden Horn Behemoth clone to take you to the depths of the Universe Boat to retrieve Jie Fanzi’s remaining treasures,” Luo Feng communicated mentally. “Jie Fanzi was a lone Cosmic Overlord who went to challenge reincarnation. He probably only took his Ultimate Supreme Treasure and other helpful items, leaving behind a pile of other treasures like peak Palace Supreme Treasures. Perhaps Jie Fanzi’s legacy will yield more treasures than what I got from the slain God-Eye Clan lineage.”

“Good, good, let’s go quickly!” Slaying Wu was impatient.

Mid-journey, they began to separate.

The Golden Horn Behemoth clone, wearing the Robbery Armor, carrying the Slaying Wu Wings, and bringing the Star Tower! With the Star Tower… going to the depths of the Universe Boat to retrieve Jie Fanzi’s legacy treasures would be simple.

Meanwhile, the Earth Human original body, wearing the Mad Demon God-Slaying Armor, carrying the Blood Shadow Blade, and bringing the Tomb Mausoleum Boat, returned to the Original Universe!

These two clones…

The Golden Horn Behemoth and the Earth Human original body were Luo Feng’s two main combat bodies.

The Earth Human original body was stronger with the Blood Shadow Blade.

The Golden Horn Behemoth clone had the Slaying Wu Wings, and within the Slaying Wu Wings was the 'Source', which was Luo Feng’s ultimate trump card.

Both were capable of traversing the Universe Ocean, fearing no Cosmic Overlord.

Soon.

Luo Feng returned to the Original Universe. As soon as he arrived, the highest echelons of the human race naturally became aware.

In the Virtual Universe, outside the Giant Axe Shrine.

The 19 Universe Masters of humanity (including Luo Feng) and the Giant Axe Founder gathered there to celebrate.

“Luo Feng has returned safely! Back in the Original Universe, there is no longer any danger,” Peng Gong Master laughed heartily. “Other reincarnation eras and the two Holy Land Universes simply cannot enter the Original Universe. And even Cosmic Overlords in the Original Universe can only exert limited power. With Luo Feng’s current strength, he can almost go head-to-head with them.”

“With everything stable, our human race is about to enter a period of rapid development,” Chaos City Master said, full of anticipation.

“Indeed.”

“As our human race develops, it is destined to become the foremost power in the entire Universe Ocean,” Void Gold Master stated directly.

The highest echelons of the human race were all overjoyed. They had previously worried about complications during Luo Feng’s return, but thankfully, he had come back safely! They could already envision the future strength of the human race.
