Domain Lord Ninth-tier Opponent

Three deep, dark caves lay before him. With no path to retreat, Luo Feng once again transformed into a shuttle, attempting to enter the deep cave on the left.

“Hmm?”

“There’s no suction force, nor that terrifying demonic sound.” In the deep cave, in shuttle form, he flew for over a hundred thousand kilometers in one breath, finally reaching the end of this cave passage. Ahead, 38 other rock-ice passages appeared, and on the ground, he saw three corpse remains.

“Someone has been here.”

“It seems relatively safe.” The shuttle reverted to human form. He couldn’t keep flying in ‘shuttle’ form, after all; any warrior or mentalist who saw him would surely be astonished.

...

Three days later.

Luo Feng, in his Earthling main body disguised as a ‘black-horned youth,’ was cautiously advancing, yet his mood was relaxed.

Ever since leaving the ice-rock forest through that deep cave on the left, he hadn’t encountered any more strange situations. Everything was normal, just like in the early days after entering Demonic Sound Mountain, occasionally encountering native powerhouses or lone phantom beasts, with the demonic sound posing little threat.

“Now it seems the ice-rock forest area was indeed very special,” Luo Feng recalled that experience. “The deeper one went into the ice-rock forest, the stronger the demonic sound invasion became, until reaching the very end. Then came the ‘devouring’ and ‘demonic sound invasion’ from that deep cave… After escaping that ordeal, there hasn’t been any danger since.”

That deep cave was a ‘terminus.’

“I always feel like that deep cave holds some secret,” Luo Feng thought subconsciously.

“What are you thinking about? The suction cave you encountered in the ice-rock forest earlier?” Babata’s voice rang out.

“Yes.”

“I knew you would. That’s right! Crisis often comes with opportunity… Such terrifying death traps, with one crisis after another, but if you can survive, you might gain astonishing rewards.” Babata said, “This is why many great beings love to explore cosmic secret realms.”

“However, one must know their limits.”

“There are countless places in the universe that nurture treasures, yet many powerful beings have fallen before those treasures,” Babata continued. “Your strongest Golden Horn Beast clone hasn’t even reached the Sector Lord level. And you want to challenge this death trap? Even Undyings can fall. As for you, the probability of death is over 99%, unless you get incredibly lucky.”

Luo Feng instantly snapped back to reality.

The entrance alone was so terrifying; he probably couldn’t withstand what lay inside.

“Do things according to your strength. Don’t be greedy! Greed will cost you your life.”

Luo Feng looked at the seemingly endless rock-ice cave before him, the cold air invading his body, and couldn’t help but feel insignificant. Compared to the myriad mysterious places in the vast universe, his current strength was truly too weak. Even Undyings fell one by one; compared to an Undying, he was just a tiny ant.

“Work hard!”

“Only by becoming a true super powerhouse can I control my destiny and protect my home and loved ones in this vast universe filled with experts.” Luo Feng took a deep breath. “Keep moving forward!”

...

Deep within the rock-ice cave Luo Feng was traversing.

A lean man, about 2.6 meters tall, looking like a bamboo pole at first glance, with two long silver horns on his forehead and a goatee. His appearance seemed somewhat aged and sinister. This lean, goatee-wearing elder was comfortably lying on a lounge chair carved from the rock-ice. Golden light flickered faintly in his closed eyes, and comfortable hums emanated from his nostrils.

“Harder, a little harder.”

Two native youths, one massaging his legs, the other his shoulders. Standing nearby were twelve other youths, some handsome, some charming, some honest, some brave. Some were Universe-level, others Domain Lords.

“Hmm.”

The lean, goatee-wearing elder opened his eyes, smiling at the Universe-level youth massaging his legs. “Come here.”

“Old Ancestor,” the Universe-level youth swallowed.

“The Old Ancestor told you to come,” a Domain Lord man standing nearby shouted.

The Universe-level youth nervously approached. The lean, goatee-wearing elder chuckled, extended his withered hand, grabbed the Universe-level youth’s hand, and praised, “Youth is truly different.” The Universe-level youth seemed utterly uncomfortable, his body trembling as he abruptly pulled his hand back.

“Interesting.” The lean, goatee-wearing elder smiled, his powerful World Force pressing down on the Universe-level youth, binding him as if with a rope, rendering him immobile, and pulling him directly closer.

“Kill me, just kill me!” The Universe-level youth suddenly screamed, tears streaming down his face.

“So courageous. If you’re so courageous, you can kill yourself.” The lean, goatee-wearing elder suddenly turned his head, looking into the distance of the deep cave passage. He saw a black-horned youth walking in the distance, who also abruptly stopped.

They were over a hundred kilometers apart.

But at this moment, they could clearly see each other.

“Oh, tsk tsk… another Universe-level Ninth-tier little guy. Look at his eyes: vigilant, reserved, resolute. I don’t see any fear? A top-grade specimen, I like it.” The lean, goatee-wearing elder smiled faintly. “Kamulu, go personally and bring him to me.”

“Yes, Master.”

The highest-ranked Domain Lord Ninth-tier man standing nearby respectfully responded, then transformed into a streak of light and shot directly towards Luo Feng.

...

Luo Feng saw the lean, goatee-wearing elder, especially as the other party was actively radiating his aura, and immediately felt something was wrong: “A Sector Lord level expert, probably at the Sector Lord Sixth or Seventh-tier.”

Escape!

Luo Feng turned and fled!

“Anyone my Old Ancestor fancies can’t escape.” A silver-horned man chased like lightning. “Little guy, don’t worry, my Old Ancestor won’t kill you, he’ll just dote on you!”

Luo Feng’s face changed, and goosebumps rose.

Damn it! A guy who likes men.

In the universe, with billions of races, many have such preferences. But humanity’s general custom is male-female… that’s the natural way! While Luo Feng disliked such preferences, he wouldn’t interfere. But now it was happening to him; how could he not be disgusted?

“Haha, Luo Feng, I didn’t expect you’d encounter this,” Babata said.

“That disgusting old man,” Luo Feng cursed. “The Universe-level youth next to him earlier was probably forced by him, truly sickening.”

Whoosh!

The Domain Lord Ninth-tier silver-horned man quickly chased.

Since they were initially over a hundred kilometers apart, this chase quickly covered several thousand kilometers.

“Don’t resist, or I might accidentally hurt you. Then the Old Ancestor will be heartbroken.” The silver-horned man instantly appeared in front of Luo Feng.

“Go to hell!” Luo Feng’s eyes turned cold.

Whoosh!

He switched bodies, instantly transforming into his Demon Killer Clan clone’s appearance. Luo Feng had goosebumps from this encounter, so he didn’t bother using his Earthling main body to kill. While his Earthling main body could kill a Domain Lord Ninth-tier with Moyun Teng, it would take more time and be more troublesome.

The Demon Killer Clan clone made it much simpler!

Whoosh!

Shadow Phantasm!

Luo Feng instantly appeared behind the silver-horned man, and his blade flashed!

“Pfft!”

The battle blade sliced across the silver-horned man’s chest and abdomen, cutting directly through a gap in his armor. The blade energy raged, directly shattering his life core. The silver-horned man’s eyes widened: “This, this—” The seemingly weak opponent instantly vanished, and then he was killed. He had no power to resist.

“Truly sickening.” Luo Feng glanced at the corpse, then his body flickered, escaping far away.

...

The goatee-wearing elder lay there, frowning: “Hmm, why isn’t Kamulu back yet?”

“Master, perhaps that Universe-level little guy would rather die than submit, so Senior Brother is taking more effort,” another Domain Lord youth said.

“Hmph.”

The goatee-wearing elder let out a low snort, and his World Force spread out, extending rapidly, instantly covering the area where the silver-horned man’s corpse lay.

“Boom!” The goatee-wearing elder’s eyes blazed with fury. He violently waved his hand, and the Universe-level youth he had been toying with exploded with a bang, turning into minced meat and shattered bones. The others nearby scattered in terror.

“My Kamulu, who killed you!!!”

“I’ll kill him!!!”

The goatee-wearing elder roared, instantly transforming into a streak of light and rushing off, his World Force extending wildly. But how fast was Demon Killer Clan Luo Feng? He had already shot out of this passage. How could this old man find him?

...

Luo Feng fled for a million kilometers in one go, passing through seven deep passages before stopping.

“Although I’ve heard of it, and even seen it before. But for such a male-liking powerhouse… to try and capture me, it’s truly disgusting.” Luo Feng looked back. “My strength isn’t enough right now. If I were to use my Golden Horn Beast clone, the cave is only a dozen kilometers wide. The Golden Horn Beast’s body length is so astonishing… it wouldn’t be able to move.”

“Forget it.”

Luo Feng shook his head, not wanting to think about it anymore. If he were strong enough to encounter someone trying to capture him like that, he would have slapped them to death.

...

Half a day later.

Luo Feng rested on the ice, a sliver of his consciousness connected to the Virtual Universe Network, playing with his wife Xu Xin and their large group of children at home. Over 30 years of cultivation in Chaos City (corresponding to 100 years in the original universe) plus 80 years in the Xueluo World, had brought tremendous changes to Luo Feng’s family.

“Luo Feng, 19.2 kilometers ahead, a Domain Lord Ninth-tier man is advancing,” Babata’s voice sounded.

Luo Feng’s split consciousness quickly returned. He looked ahead.

Soon, a Domain Lord Ninth-tier man appeared ahead, short and stout, with a pair of black horns.

“Another Domain Lord Ninth-tier?” Luo Feng shook his head.

“Hmm?” The short man over ten kilometers away saw Luo Feng, a fierce glint in his eyes.
