Mechanical Race Spaceship

“Dewen and Baikaluo, why haven't I heard anything from them for so long?” In the reception room of one of the luxurious estates on Black Dragon Mountain Island in the Virtual Universe, Nuolanshan, clad only in a robe, frowned deeply, his red-tinged eyes fixed on the screen, glinting sharply. “Contact them again,” he commanded.

“Yes, Master,” the fist-sized virtual assistant on Nuolanshan’s shoulder chirped.

*Beep—beep—beep—*

“No, this isn't right.”

“Something’s wrong.”

“When I contact them, they wouldn't dare ignore my call invitation for this long.” Nuolanshan’s eyes widened in terror. “Could it be...”

“Impossible! With Baikaluo’s strength, there’s no way anything could happen to the two of them.” Nuolanshan shook his head repeatedly. “Absolutely not!”

Nuolanshan, who had been waiting in the Virtual Universe for news from Dewen and Baikaluo, had already vaguely sensed that something was amiss. However, he had too much confidence in his most outstanding disciple, Baikaluo. Dealing with something as simple as Earth, there was no way anything could go wrong.

Time ticked by, minute by minute.

Five minutes, ten minutes, half an hour...

An hour, two hours...

Nuolanshan’s expression grew increasingly grim. If he had held onto hope at first, the complete lack of response from his two disciples after more than two hours clearly indicated a problem—

“Argh!”

A furious roar erupted from deep within Nuolanshan’s throat. He violently swept his hand across the table, sending wine glasses and other utensils flying. They scattered in all directions, smashing against walls, decorative murals, and chairs, creating a cacophony of shattering sounds.

“Luo Feng.” Nuolanshan’s eyes were cold, and he gritted his teeth, forcing out those two words.

“You’re ruthless!”

“To think you could find a Universe-level Ninth Tier, or even a Domain Lord-level helper.” Nuolanshan’s eyes were chillingly dark, his fists clenched so tightly that his fingernails dug into his palms.

This defeat was truly devastating!

Firstly, he had lost his crucial subordinates, Dewen and Baikaluo.

Secondly, he knew that if the opponent could easily deal with Baikaluo, then he, Nuolanshan, had no hope of obtaining the treasures on Earth.

“To be able to defeat Baikaluo, the opponent’s expert must be at least Universe-level Ninth Tier. And a Universe-level Ninth Tier... would be perfectly capable of taking that Mechanical Race Spaceship.” Nuolanshan grew even more enraged. “Even if I spend nearly three years to reach Earth, it would probably all be for nothing! What’s more, Earth has that thing...”

...

Solar System, Mars surface.

As Nuolanshan gnashed his teeth in hatred over Baikaluo’s demise...

“Do not resist.” A majestic, rumbling voice echoed across the desert. The colossal Golden Horned Beast coiled on the sand, its mountain-like head lowering from the sky to gaze down at the tiny figure of Baikaluo before it.

“Yes.”

Baikaluo stood there respectfully.

The Golden Horned Beast began to perform the Soul Imprint Secret Art of the Yunmo Star lineage. Gradually, a crystalline liquid, like a single drop of water, flew out from the Golden Horned Beast’s left eye and rapidly descended. If one looked closely at this shimmering drop, they would see intricate imprints floating and dissolving within it.

“Pfft!” The water drop touched Baikaluo’s glabella.

It instantly merged, entering the depths of Baikaluo’s Sea of Consciousness.

Within the Sea of Consciousness.

It was a vast miniature galaxy, a materialized representation of Baikaluo’s soul. This miniature galaxy continuously rotated and moved, its eight spiral arms revolving with it. A single water drop suddenly appeared, then directly fell into this galaxy. Immediately, a crystalline stream of light rapidly spread, beginning to permeate, and everything happened naturally.

...

After about half an hour, Baikaluo, standing in the desert, opened his eyes. In his gaze towards the enormous Golden Horned Beast, there was a trace of reverence that originated from his very soul.

“Master,” Baikaluo bowed.

The Golden Horned Beast’s dark golden eyes also held a hint of dimness. Performing the Soul Imprint of Enslavement was like cutting off a small piece of its soul; the damage was quite significant.

Boom!

The Golden Horned Beast vanished, and Luo Feng appeared.

“The Soul Imprint of Enslavement is truly miraculous.” Luo Feng looked at the Blade Clan warrior, Baikaluo, before him, clearly feeling the reverence and adoration for him within the other’s soul, as if facing his ‘king.’ “It’s incredible that Master could create this Soul Imprint of Enslavement.”

“Difan, Baikaluo, let’s go, back to Earth,” Luo Feng said.

“Yes, Master!”

Difan and Baikaluo replied respectfully in unison.

...

A black saucer-shaped spaceship was flying from Mars towards Earth.

Inside the spaceship’s control room, Luo Feng was conversing with his two subordinates.

“Master, all the intelligent optical computers from the spaceship wreckage have been brought,” Baikaluo reported respectfully. “There will be no leak of the Golden Horned Beast’s transformation scene.”

“Good,” Luo Feng nodded.

Caution is the parent of safety; the secret of the Golden Horned Beast indeed could not be exposed.

“Baikaluo, what trump cards does Nuolanshan have, and what information does he know about Earth?” Luo Feng asked.

“Trump cards?”

Baikaluo shook his head slightly. “Nuolanshan doesn’t really have any trump cards. His entire family’s foundation is shallow; if not for Nuolanshan himself holding things together, the Nuolanshan Family wouldn’t have such influence! This time, he dispatched Dewen and me, firstly to retrieve the Mechanical Race Spaceship, and secondly, to kill you, Master, along the way! That scoundrel, daring to try and kill Master, he deserves to die!!!”

Baikaluo’s words were filled with killing intent towards Nuolanshan. Soul servants revere their master from the depths of their soul; the master is the most important thing in their lives.

So, for Nuolanshan to want to kill Luo Feng... the current Baikaluo naturally felt a surge of hatred.

“Haha...”

“That Nuolanshan is just a clown,” Luo Feng chuckled.

“By the way, did you just say Mechanical Race Spaceship?” Luo Feng’s eyes lit up. For the past two years, he had been almost entirely immersed in comprehending the fundamental laws of the universe. In fact, this comprehension wasn’t arduous at all; instead, it felt like being in his mother’s embrace as a child, bringing comfort to his very soul.

Two years of immersive cultivation had made Luo Feng almost forget... that there was still a Mechanical Race Spaceship in the Bermuda region of Earth.

“Yes, that Nuolanshan has always been obsessed with the Mechanical Race Spaceship. That spaceship is definitely worth far more than his entire family’s assets,” Baikaluo replied respectfully.

“Haha...” Luo Feng laughed.

“Babata,” Luo Feng called out. “The spaceship won’t go home for now. After we return to Earth, head to the Bermuda region. It’s time we dealt with that Mechanical Race Spaceship.”

“Understood!” the little devil shouted excitedly.

...

The spaceship plunged into Earth’s atmosphere, flying directly towards the Bermuda sea region. Then, the spaceship vanished into thin air, and Luo Feng and his two companions transformed into three streaks of light, flying into the depths of the sea.

...

In the cold, deep sea, a colossal white shadow vaguely appeared.

“Hmm?” Luo Feng flew closer.

An enormous, silver-white pyramid floated in the seawater. The entire pyramid reached an astonishing height of 1200 meters, far taller than any skyscraper on Earth. As the silver-white pyramid hovered there, it completely distorted the surrounding magnetic field, a phenomenon Luo Feng clearly sensed.

“A Mechanical Race Spaceship,” Difan’s eyes gleamed.

“This is my first time seeing a Mechanical Race Spaceship in reality,” Baikaluo exclaimed. “The Mechanical Race’s technology is truly too advanced. From its exterior, it’s impossible to determine what level this spaceship is.”

Compared to the Mechanical Race, humanity’s cosmic technology was indeed far inferior.

Spaceships built by humans could be clearly identified by their level, and even scans could determine their alloy composition. However, with Mechanical Race alloys, humans simply couldn’t detect their precise level from the exterior.

“However, according to what Nuolanshan told me, this Mechanical Race Spaceship is at least D-grade,” Baikaluo said, pointing towards the open triangular passage beneath the giant pyramid. “The defense of that passage alone reaches C-grade. A spaceship like this is at least D-grade, so its price would be extremely high, many Domain Lords couldn’t afford it.”

“Oh?” Difan looked at Baikaluo in surprise. “That expensive?”

“Don’t you see its sheer size! This is just D-grade. If it were E-grade... that would be terrifying. It would definitely be even more astonishing than the ‘Treasure within a Realm’ that turned the entire Black Dragon Mountain Starfield upside down before.” Baikaluo shook his head. “But the probability of it being E-grade is too low.”

“It is E-grade,” Luo Feng stated.

“Master.” Difan and Baikaluo both looked at Luo Feng in shock. Difan couldn’t help but say, “Master, it’s impossible to determine the level of this Mechanical Race Spaceship from its exterior.”

“It is E-grade! I’m certain.” Luo Feng looked at the giant pyramid before him, then turned to Difan and Baikaluo. “What level are the battle suits you two are wearing?”

“Master, I’m wearing a Third-tier Force Battle Suit inside, and a D3-grade Alloy Battle Suit outside,” Difan replied respectfully.

“I have a Third-tier Force Battle Suit inside, and a D5-grade Alloy Battle Suit outside,” Baikaluo said respectfully.

Luo Feng nodded slightly.

Force Battle Suits are similar to the Black God Set from back then; they can cover the entire body at will. However, the defensive capability of a Force Battle Suit is related to the ‘Force’ level. The stronger the Force, the stronger the Force Battle Suit’s defense. These Force Battle Suits are extremely expensive, comparable to psychic weapons.

Alloy Battle Suits, with their alloy exteriors, have very low technological content. They’re like wearing a large armor, cheap in price, but their drawback is... Alloy Battle Suits have many ‘vulnerabilities,’ making it impossible to protect the entire body 100%.

“Baikaluo, you’ll enter the Mechanical Race Spaceship then,” Luo Feng ordered. “This is an intelligent chip. Once you’re in the control room, just insert it.”

“Yes, Master,” Baikaluo respectfully took the chip from Luo Feng’s hand, then turned and flew directly towards the passage.

*Whoosh~~

From the Mechanical Race Spaceship’s passage, three-colored light beams immediately shot out, but Baikaluo’s speed barely faltered as he directly rushed inside.

“A Mechanical Race Spaceship.” Luo Feng looked at the pyramid-shaped spaceship before him, a wave of emotion in his heart. “The owner of this spaceship is that Mechanical Race Undying expert!”
