Chapter 1380
The Grand Sweep
The divine eye high in the sky emitted an ever-strengthening will impact, making it increasingly difficult for the soldiers to resist. “No.” Xuzhong felt his will gradually blurring and becoming indistinct under the repeated impacts. “Wake up, wake up!” He glanced behind him; the Golden Claw God, transformed into a black stream of light, was still pursuing him without the slightest slowdown. “Wake up, wake up.” Xuzhong was frantic, but the will impact only intensified, gradually pushing him towards collapse. “Yinhe! I was wrong, spare me, spare me.” Xuzhong transmitted in his final moments, as the will impact caused his escape trajectory to become erratic. Whoosh! The Golden Claw God Luo Feng, entirely black, roared as he caught up from behind. “Die!” Luo Feng’s cold claw strike sent the white great bird plummeting downwards. Boom! The white great bird crashed onto the grassland, and Luo Feng landed beside it. Luo Feng watched the white great bird, 'Ke Niao', sprawled on the grassland, seemingly unconscious. Other fighting soldiers in the distance looked over; they all knew that the soldier lying there was clearly on the verge of a will collapse and falling into a coma, and would soon be directly annihilated by the divine eye, leaving treasures behind. But seeing the Golden Claw God Luo Feng standing nearby, not a single one dared to snatch the spoils from the tiger's mouth. Swish! A purple light shot from the divine eye, landing directly on the white great bird 'Ke Niao', instantly annihilating Xuzhong, who was protected by a mechanical-type treasure. Only some armor, spatial rings, mechanical treasures, and other remnants were left behind. Luo Feng waved his hand, collecting them directly, then leaped up, transforming into a stream of light and charging into the midst of the fighting soldiers! The number of soldiers was rapidly decreasing. 28... 26... 23... Soldiers fell one by one, either killed by the divine eye or by other soldiers. “Get lost!” A thunderous roar echoed as the Golden Claw God Luo Feng, transformed into a stream of light, directly rushed towards the treasures left behind by a soldier killed by the divine eye. “It's soldier Yinhe.” “It's soldier Yinhe.” The three soldiers simultaneously rushing towards the fallen treasures, upon seeing Luo Feng, immediately changed direction, arcing away to escape. If they had been extremely close to the fallen treasures, they might have been able to grab them. But they were already quite far from the treasures, and even if they managed to get them first, they would likely be caught by soldier Yinhe, which would be a nightmare. Among this group of soldiers, the two who acquired the most treasures were Luo Feng and the plant life soldier! Strictly speaking, the plant life soldier obtained even more treasures! It's worth noting that the entire light domain was only a billion kilometers in diameter, while the plant life soldier's height reached nearly a hundred million kilometers. Its branches and leaves spread out, covering a vast area, naturally allowing it to acquire many treasures due to this advantage. “No!” “I won't accept this!” “Die, die, just die!” The most vibrant flower of the plant life soldier emitted a series of mournful cries. Its strength was formidable. However, the will impact from the 'divine eye' high in the sky made it increasingly strained! As a plant life form, it had a great advantage in combat, but it was inherently lacking in the tempering of will. Although its will had reached the 'True God' level... among this group of elite soldiers, it could only be ranked in the middle. “No... no...” The plant life soldier felt it could no longer resist; its will was even beginning to collapse. “It's dying.” “It's failing.” Other soldiers in the distance looked on, each keeping their distance and watching from afar, their eyes filled with greed. For everyone knew that this 'plant life soldier' possessed the most mechanical-type treasures, making every soldier eager to obtain them. Luo Feng also hovered in mid-air, watching from afar. “No! Die, you all go die, die!” The plant life soldier roared, wildly flailing its branches and leaves. Golden light streamed from each leaf, sweeping outwards, attempting to kill more soldiers. But every soldier kept their distance, staying far away from it. Moreover, the soldiers still alive at this moment had all suffered relatively minor losses in strength. Even if trapped by the plant life soldier, they wouldn't die in a short time. “No—” Following the mournful shriek, all the wildly flailing vines and leaves drooped powerlessly from high in the sky, clearly having lost consciousness. “Hmm?” Luo Feng's eyes lit up. He immediately transformed into a stream of light, his speed rapidly accelerating as he charged directly towards the plant life soldier. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! One by one, the soldiers all rushed towards it simultaneously, each eager to obtain a large number of mechanical-type treasures. Even if they couldn't use them themselves, they could exchange them for military merit. Then, with a massive amount of military merit, they could exchange for something suitable for themselves. Swish! A cold purple light descended, landing on the plant life form, instantly annihilating it into nothingness, leaving behind only a pile of treasures. “They're mine.” A beast soldier, with two wings and a triangular head, flew over with a lightning-fast roar. Among the many rushing soldiers, its speed was the fastest. Whoosh! It flew roaring close to the grassland, instantly collecting all the treasures left on the ground. “You're courting death!” A furious roar came. The avian beast soldier glanced into the distance, transmitting with a sneer, “Soldier Yinhe, I may not be as strong as you, but when it comes to flying speed, I'm not afraid of you.” Boom! Luo Feng roared as he approached. “Is that so?” The entirely black Golden Claw God Luo Feng suddenly transformed. The Golden Claw God form vanished completely, and Luo Feng instantly became a silver-white avian creature—a Ke Niao! “A Ke Niao!” The avian beast soldier was greatly alarmed. Swish! Ke Niao Luo Feng's speed instantly soared, clearly surpassing the avian beast soldier by a significant margin, and he directly caught up. Luo Feng's eyes were filled with coldness... It was a joke. After Xuzhong died and he obtained the Ke Niao, he had already intended to acquire a large number of treasures in this third level. Naturally, he immediately sent the 'Ke Niao' into the Tomb Mausoleum Boat for the Golden Horn Behemoth to experiment with. The Golden Horn Behemoth, with ten thousand times time acceleration in the 'cultivation space' of the inheritance space, studied the Ke Niao. Although it took over a day of research in the cultivation space to fully grasp the secret method for controlling the Ke Niao, less than ten seconds had passed in the outside world. “How could this be...” The avian beast soldier panicked. For a new mechanical-type treasure to be used optimally, it usually took a long time just to study it. How could soldier Yinhe use the Ke Niao immediately after obtaining it? Little did it know... Luo Feng already had extremely high achievements in secret methods, and with ten thousand times time acceleration, how could he not be fast? “Everyone says you're powerful, but I refuse to believe a mere Law Master can be that much stronger than me,” the avian beast soldier roared in anger. “Get down here!” The Ke Niao instantly caught up. Its massive wings transformed into streams of light, unleashing the 'Light of Water and Fire' blade technique, directly striking the avian beast soldier and sending it crashing down onto the grassland below, creating a large crater. As it descended, Luo Feng, who had been a silver-white great bird, instantly transformed back into the Golden Claw God. After all, the Golden Claw God was stronger in terms of attack! “Die!” The Golden Claw God furiously fought around the avian beast soldier. For a moment, dazzling golden claw shadows, like massive waves, instantly engulfed the avian beast soldier. “How—” The avian beast soldier tried to resist. But once Luo Feng got close, and with Luo Feng's superior strength, the avian beast soldier couldn't even escape. Rumble~~~ Under the sweep of endless blade light... the avian beast soldier, already having suffered significant strength loss in Wuqi Tower's second level, was utterly ravaged, completely unable to fight back. In just over thirty seconds, the avian beast soldier was annihilated! “Hmph.” Luo Feng instantly collected the treasures. “As expected of an elite soldier. Even severely wounded, it lasted longer than that True God from Nine Smoke Marsh.” Other soldiers in the distance watched in astonishment as a powerful elite beast soldier, unable to escape, was brutally slaughtered in just over thirty seconds! Fear! Regret! Various emotions surged within them. This was Luo Feng's first true act of killing a soldier on the third level; 'Xuzhong' had been killed by the divine eye. This display of his methods... made the other soldiers realize how wise their previous caution and avoidance had been. Buzz~~~ The divine eye high in the sky emitted endless golden light, its will impact growing ever stronger. “Ah.” “Only fifteen can survive!” Especially those soldiers who felt the will impact pressing them to their limits became even more frantic, fighting desperately. The number continued to decrease. 20... 18... 16... until only 15 remained! When only 15 soldiers remained in the entire area illuminated by the divine eye, the will impact had reached the 'peak True God' level, already close to the limit of a True God. Apart from Luo Feng, the other 14 soldiers were all struggling immensely. “Eight million epochs of long years.” Luo Feng scanned the other soldiers in the distance, sighing inwardly. Will impact? Even a will impact approaching the limit of a True God was negligible to him. When he first received the Duan Dong River lineage's inheritance, his will had already reached the True God level. And then, over the long years... he had the 'inheritance space' to temper himself. The inheritance space was a perfect training ground for super-strong individuals. Within the inheritance space, one could naturally temper their will. Maintaining the tempering of will under ten thousand times time acceleration... for Luo Feng, an unprecedented period of over eight million epochs had forced his will to break through from its previous True God level... to an even higher tier. Luo Feng speculated that his will should be at the Void True God level. A will at the Void True God level was relatively common among True Gods; even in the Universe Ocean, several True Gods had reached this stage, let alone in Jinzhi World. However, Universe Masters whose will reached the 'Void True God level' were very rare. “With the inheritance space at my disposal, if I still couldn't break through, it would be a joke for the Duan Dong River lineage,” Luo Feng thought to himself. Every successor of the Duan Dong River lineage, at the Universe Master stage, could easily reach the Void True God level of will. Swish! Swish! Swish!... The divine eye high in the sky vanished into nothingness. Simultaneously, 15 pillars of light descended, enveloping Luo Feng and the other fifteen soldiers, causing them to disappear directly from this third level of Wuqi Tower.
