Five Pairs of Wings

“You can’t escape!” Peixing stared at the pristine jade-colored boat in the distance, his eyes filled with boundless battle intent. The four black wings on his back instantly erupted with five streaks of light, representing the five law energies of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. These five bands of light shot into the sky like a rainbow, directly enveloping the pristine jade-colored boat in the distance. In Peixing’s view, even if the opponent hid inside a palace-type supreme true treasure and refused to come out, he could still trap them with his binding secret technique, then drag them into some extremely dangerous environment within the Tilted Peak Sector’s inner region, and use the perilous surroundings to kill them. Afterward, the ownerless treasure... would likely fly to him on its own, drawn by their mutual attraction. “A treasure,” Peixing anticipated with immense excitement. “Peixing!” a voice rang out. “Hmm?” Peixing paused, a sudden premonition of danger washing over him. He saw the pristine jade-colored boat in the distance also come to a halt, and from it emerged a man with six silver wings. Peixing initially rejoiced at the sight of the six silver wings, as his own wings were naturally silver. But when he saw the man... his expression instantly changed. A human? Black hair? Silver wings? Immediately, a name surfaced in his mind—Luo Feng!!! The very object of his deepest envy, how could he not recognize him? A Universe Master without a palace-type supreme true treasure stood no chance against Luo Feng. “No!” Peixing turned and flew towards the three-story spire behind him. He knew he couldn't escape. But he was unwilling! He had spent a full 18 reincarnation eras in the Holy Land Universe, such an immense span of time, only to finally reach the Universe Ocean... He felt his path to fame in the Universe Ocean had just begun. He was unwilling to die, so unwilling! Even knowing he couldn't escape, he still ran... desperately trying to grasp a sliver of hope for survival. “Why run?” Luo Feng shook his head. “It would be much better to chat.” Luo Feng extended his left hand, and a small Star Tower appeared in his palm. Whoosh! The Star Tower flew out directly, rapidly expanding. A deep abyssal black hole appeared at its base, aimed directly at Peixing. An incredibly powerful suction force immediately acted upon Peixing, causing him to let out a painful shriek as he was pulled away from the three-story spire he was flying towards. Peixing was drawn towards the Star Tower, utterly powerless to resist. “Why? Why won't you give me a chance, a sliver of hope to survive?” Peixing had lost even the will to struggle. He had previously harbored the extravagant hope that Luo Feng wouldn't use a killing move, and that with a little time, he might escape. For a Universe Master... the Star Tower's suction was a nightmare! He hadn't expected Luo Feng to unleash such a deadly move right away. “You're quite cooperative. If you weren't from the Purple Moon Holy Land, I might have spared your life. Unfortunately, you are, so just die cleanly.” Luo Feng shook his head. The Star Tower, which had been drawing Peixing in, was instantly activated by Luo Feng with its fourth-tier secret pattern, unleashing the 'Smash' technique. To ensure a swift and decisive end, Luo Feng even unleashed 'Annihilation' in that instant! Boom! The Star Tower, carrying boundless power, struck Peixing's four-faced head like lightning. Peixing's sixteen arms simultaneously tried to block it, but they were instantly pulverized before the tower smashed into his head... Immediately after... Bang!!! His entire being was utterly annihilated. Eight-tier peak power, used to kill Peixing, who had just emerged from the Holy Land Universe, lacked even a peak true treasure armor, and whose divine body defense barely matched a four-tier peak? Too weak. Peixing's only advantage was his binding abilities. As for combat power, defense, and so on, they were all at a four-tier level. Only his proficiency in binding and escaping allowed him to be classified as a five-tier. He couldn't even be considered a five-tier peak. An eight-tier peak killing a four-tier peak meant a difference of four entire tiers. It was like a five-tier peak (Chaos City Lord) killing a one-tier peak (a newly appointed Universe Master whose genetic level was only a hundredfold, with extremely poor true treasures, theoretically the weakest Universe Master)... Naturally, it was a one-hit kill! After all, this attack was comparable to the strongest power of the Haolei Star Master, so killing someone with a four-tier peak defense was naturally effortless. ... With a single smash from the Star Tower, he was instantly annihilated. Only various true treasures like armor, wings, and the three-story spire were left floating around. “Whoosh!” The two pairs of wings, which had reverted to their silver color, instantly transformed into silver light and flew directly towards Luo Feng. “Collect.” Luo Feng waved his hand, gathering all of Peixing’s other true treasures. For now, he couldn't be bothered to check what treasures Peixing might have had. After all, in Luo Feng's mind... how many good treasures could someone who had just emerged from a Holy Land Universe possess? Having two pairs of wings was already quite good. “Wings.” Luo Feng grabbed the two pairs of silver wings that flew towards him, then grinned and flew directly into his pristine jade-colored boat. The Shi Wu Wings were, after all, an absolutely super-powerful treasure, and the aura and pressure from their fusion were incredibly strong. It was better to test them inside the Tombstone Boat. ... Purple Moon Holy Land Universe. “No!” “Luo Feng!!!” With a mournful roar, Peixing’s divine power avatar directly dissipated. The guards who had been standing outside the palace were all stunned. What happened to the great Universe Master? His divine power avatar dissipated? Had he fallen? “Hmm?” At the core of the Purple Moon Holy Land Universe—the origin of the universe—a purple figure turned his head and gazed into the distance. His gaze pierced through temporal barriers, directly seeing that palace. This was, after all, his miniature universe; everything that happened within it... if he deliberately sought to understand, he could even reverse time and space to investigate past events. He greatly valued Luo Feng. Furthermore, one of his Universe Masters had fallen, and before his demise, he had called out Luo Feng's name, naturally drawing his attention. “Peixing? Fallen? Luo Feng?” The Purple Moon Ancestor immediately transmitted a command, “Juehua!” “Ancestor.” Juehua True God, who was in his divine palace, suddenly heard a voice resonate in his mind and immediately responded respectfully. The Purple Moon Ancestor continued, “Peixing has fallen, likely killed by Luo Feng. Issue an order... for all our Universe Masters in the vicinity of Peixing’s location to be cautious.” Juehua True God was utterly shocked. Wasn't Peixing in the Tilted Peak Sector? Shouldn't Luo Feng be in the Universe Boat? Right, Luo Feng had been missing for so long; at a Universe Master's fastest speed, he could indeed have reached Peixing's location by now. He immediately responded, “Yes, Ancestor, I will issue the order at once.” ... The ink-black boat was currently piercing through the void, clearly indicating that Luo Feng had changed the color of the Tombstone Boat again. Luo Feng didn't care what reaction Peixing's death would provoke from the Purple Moon Holy Land; his full attention was now on his Shi Wu Wings. “Rumble~~~~” Inside the Tombstone Boat, within the inheritance space. Luo Feng looked up at the sky, where five enormous pairs of wings were fully unfurling. Simultaneously, these five pairs of wings were furiously merging and connecting with each other, emitting waves of pressure that grew increasingly powerful, even surpassing the Black Prison Tower, Yan Jun Rod, and Haolei Battle Armor—all supreme true treasures Luo Feng had encountered. “Just five pairs of wings, and the pressure is ridiculously strong.” “What a treasure,” Luo Feng exclaimed in awe. Everything was as expected. After all, two pairs of wings were already second only to a supreme true treasure. What about three? Four? Five or six pairs? According to Luo Feng's estimation, it was only natural for them to be several tiers stronger than a regular supreme true treasure. Since two pairs were already close to a supreme true treasure, then theoretically, three perfectly integrated pairs of wings should possess the power of a supreme true treasure. In mid-air... The transformation continued. As the five pairs of wings constantly changed and combined internally, many secret patterns integrated with each other, forming even larger and more complex patterns. Finally, everything came to a halt. “Shi Wu Wings.” Luo Feng pointed from afar, and divine power immediately poured into them. “Hmm?” “They are indeed damaged,” Luo Feng murmured. He wouldn't have known without comparing. Compared to the first two pairs of wings, which had been repaired by absorbing the blade energy from within the Source, these newly acquired two pairs were clearly a tier lower. Especially when divine power flowed through them... their power was significantly diminished. “Last time, a large amount of blade energy from within the Source was consumed. I hope to be more economical this time; I still haven't found the anticipated sixth pair of wings,” Luo Feng sighed. Boom! The Source, which Luo Feng had placed inside the first pair of Shi Wu Wings, now, as Luo Feng controlled the newly acquired two pairs of wings to absorb its power, instantly... a massive amount of terrifyingly powerful blade energy stored within the Source rapidly surged out. One could visibly see streaks of blade light emerging from within, constantly circulating over the surface of the Shi Wu Wings. The third and fourth pairs of wings, in particular, seemed like dried riverbeds, greedily absorbing the circulating blade light the moment it touched them. “I'll have to wait patiently.” Luo Feng immediately sat cross-legged, quietly waiting. He was quite experienced. Because last time, absorbing the Source's energy to repair two pairs of wings had taken a day and a half. Time passed minute by minute. After approximately 35 hours, the terrifying fluctuations constantly emanating from above finally ceased. One must know that each streak of blade light was more terrifying than any attack from a universe supreme master. Even a peak palace-type true treasure would be pulverized under such an assault; how intense were these fluctuations? “Shi Wu, how much of the Source's energy was consumed?” Luo Feng pressed. “Last time, about twenty percent was consumed. This time, also about twenty percent,” Shi Wu replied. Luo Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Good. Six tenths of the blade storm energy within the Source remained! So, even if the last pair of wings needed repairing, there would be enough energy. The energy within the Source belonged to an existence far surpassing a universe supreme master—whether by one tier or more was unknown, but it was certainly superior! The energy converted and stored by such an existence within the Source was absolutely his greatest trump card, his most terrifying trump card. Unconsciously spreading out, it could destroy a peak palace-type true treasure. If concentrated, even a supreme true treasure would be annihilated. Especially when unleashed through blades, it was even more terrifying. Luo Feng had never used it. In the Primal Universe, he was reluctant to use it; in the Universe Ocean, there had been no need. The Primal Universe had an iron rule: any attack unleashed by a single powerful being, no matter how strong, would be suppressed to a six-tier peak level. The energy within the Source came from such a powerful being. If it were unleashed and suppressed to a six-tier peak by the rules of the entire Primal Universe, wouldn't Luo Feng regret it to death? Although he doubted whether the Primal Universe's origin could truly suppress it, he wasn't willing to gamble. After all, this Source in the Universe Ocean... was absolutely capable of sweeping aside everything. However, in the Universe Ocean, he needed to find a suitable opportunity, as Luo Feng's current strength could handle most dangers. “Come!” With a thought, the five pairs of wings in the sky rapidly descended, directly merging into Luo Feng's back. Ten wings unfurled fully behind Luo Feng, and as divine power surged, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~~ the Shi Wu Wings actually extended into a set of silver armor, swiftly enveloping Luo Feng's entire body. “Battle armor? A supreme true treasure-tier battle armor?” Luo Feng was dumbfounded.
