Moluo

Because of the upcoming Qualification Battle, Luo Feng made every effort to gather sufficiently detailed intelligence on the Universe-level members of the Primal Secret Realm.

In terms of strength, these three veteran members of the Primal Secret Realm were much stronger than Sajin Huolong of the Yan Poluo Clan, whom he had once defeated. At least for now, in the Virtual Universe's Qualification Battle, he had no confidence whatsoever in defeating any of the three. Of course, in reality, it might be different.

Among the three veterans, Luo Feng actually had the best impression of Moluo.

Moluo hailed from the remote Southern Fox Cosmic Nation.

He was originally an orphan, nameless and without family, born amidst the chaos of a desert planet. Later, he was captured by the Mo Clan, which owned thousands of life planets, and taken to a concentration camp specifically for training elite death warriors for the family. However, during his training, Moluo displayed incredible talent... so he was quickly absorbed directly into the family and granted the family surname 'Mo'.

From then on, the name Moluo came to be!

After receiving the full cultivation support of the Mo Clan, Moluo's progress was even more astonishing!

Soon, even the Mo Clan's patriarch, a Universe-level Ninth-tier expert, had nothing left to teach him. Not long after, Moluo was discovered by members of the Virtual Universe Company's branches stationed across various regions of the vast universe and was directly recruited as a special elite of the Virtual Universe Company.

The elites recruited by the Virtual Universe Company also competed amongst themselves.

Soon, Moluo was directly absorbed as a 'Core Member'. In the same year, Moluo challenged the Heaven-Reaching Mountain, thus gaining direct entry into the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm.

Subsequently!

After two Qualification Battles, he directly advanced into the Primal Secret Realm! Becoming one of its esteemed members.

...

Luo Feng and his peers entered the core layer of the Virtual Universe Company through the Universe Genius Battle. Moluo, however, gradually rose through the Virtual Universe Company's own elite recruitment system to eventually enter the Primal Secret Realm.

Luo Feng had the best impression of 'Moluo' for two reasons.

First, his arduous rise to power.

Second, the combat technique he used was his self-created 'Beast Fist'!

Most warriors use various weapons such as sabers, swords, spears, axes, and staffs.

But Moluo relied on his body, on his fists and feet!

"According to my teacher, Zhenyan King, everyone initially uses secret techniques created by senior experts. But as one's comprehension of laws deepens and others' secret techniques become unsuitable, creating one's own secret technique becomes incredibly important." Luo Feng understood this clearly, because almost 99.99% of Immortal beings have created a set of secret techniques best suited for themselves!

A secret technique isn't necessarily better if created earlier.

When one's comprehension of laws is weak, it's not suitable to create secret techniques, as limited understanding can easily lead one astray.

Yet, Moluo's 'Beast Fist' was even praised by Zhenyan King.

Luo Feng had also watched videos of Moluo demonstrating 'Beast Fist' and was filled with admiration.

...

In a deep, cold, ancient, and vast cave, a youth in golden combat armor fought lightning-fast with a towering ape-like Illusory Beast chasing him, all while retreating.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The cave trembled, and the ice cracked. The ape-like Illusory Beast roared, wildly smashing with its fists and swatting with its palms. The youth in golden combat armor was incredibly agile and swift as lightning, dodging repeatedly. However, the ape-like Illusory Beast was clearly much faster, and soon, with a large stride, it appeared directly in front of the youth.

"Big guy!" the youth in golden combat armor looked up.

"Roar~~"

The ape-like Illusory Beast suddenly swung a palm, striking downwards.

Whoosh!

The youth in golden combat armor surprisingly stood his ground, and only when the palm was about to strike did he shoot upwards, attempting to evade. The ape-like Illusory Beast immediately stopped its swing and instead swept its palm horizontally. The moment its wrist turned, the youth in golden combat armor swiftly pounced upwards.

"Fly for me!" The youth in golden combat armor grabbed one of the ape-like Illusory Beast's fingers, which was over ten meters long, and swung it forcefully!

Rumble!

The ape-like Illusory Beast, approximately 300 meters tall, was entirely thrown into the air and violently slammed onto the rocky ice ground. Rumble~~~ Such a colossal creature, like a small mountain, crashed onto the rocky ice, sending shattered ice flying and cracking the surrounding ice layer.

Because he swung the entire ape-like Illusory Beast by one finger, that finger joint was more than half broken.

"Snap!" The youth in golden combat armor exerted force again, directly breaking off that finger.

"Roar~~"

The ape-like Illusory Beast roared in fury, immediately scrambling up and swatting with its hand.

...

Watching this scene from a distance, Luo Feng was secretly astonished: "A pounce, and his entire body was like flowing water, wrapping around and holding the finger. When he exerted force, he actually used the Illusory Beast's own swinging power, borrowing its momentum to throw the entire Illusory Beast. Finally, adding fuel to the fire with another burst of strength, the Illusory Beast's finger broke. So exquisite... incredible..."

It seemed simple.

But facing a hand as heavy as a mountain, Luo Feng admitted to himself that he wouldn't dare to meet that huge palm and grab a finger.

He didn't have that capability!

"Moluo, Universe-level Ninth-tier, with golden armor on his body, which is a Domain Lord Ninth-tier auxiliary metal lifeform," Babata said. "That Illusory Beast's aura strength is approximately Realm Lord Second-tier. Observing his close-quarters combat, his entire body moves as one, he can probably achieve 100 times force exertion."

The Immortal Altar, which is used for force testing, has a limit of 100 times.

"But it's useless!"

"The most terrifying thing about Illusory Beasts is that no matter how severely they are injured, they won't die," Babata said.

Luo Feng nodded. Even if an Illusory Beast was cut into pieces, it would still gradually merge and recover. The distant youth, 'Moluo', was fighting the ape-like Illusory Beast. The Illusory Beast was constantly getting injured, but it still held the absolute upper hand.

"Let's give him a hand," Luo Feng smiled slightly.

...

"What a nuisance," Moluo muttered, standing on the ape-like Illusory Beast's head. "No matter how severe the injury, it's useless!"

Slap!

The ape-like Illusory Beast's palm swept past, forcing Moluo to quickly flash away, running and flickering across the Illusory Beast's massive body.

Suddenly—

A colossal silver-white pyramid appeared in the distance. The tip of the silver-white pyramid also condensed a dazzling white light.

"Laser cannon?" Moluo's eyes widened in alarm, and he immediately flashed three times in quick succession, moving far away.

Sizzle!

A light beam, approximately 200 meters in diameter, instantly swept past the ape-like Illusory Beast. More than half of the Illusory Beast's massive body instantly vanished, leaving only its head and two feet. All other parts completely melted away. After melting the entire ape-like Illusory Beast, the energy of the light beam also weakened significantly, finally landing on the distant ice-rock wall, merely melting a portion of the ice.

Mechanical Race Spaceship—E3-class Laser Cannon!

Whether it was the nine E3-class Laser Cannons or the three Star Destroyer Main Cannons on the Mechanical Race Spaceship, they were all large caliber. For example, an E3 Laser Cannon could emit a laser beam with a diameter controllable between 30 meters and 3000 meters.

"Mechanical Race Spaceship?" Moluo looked over in surprise.

The silver-white pyramid quickly disappeared, and a young man with a black horn walked over, his face and skin color fully restored to Luo Feng's original appearance.

"Moluo," Luo Feng called out.

"Luo Feng?" Moluo looked at Luo Feng in surprise. "You've come to Demonic Sound Mountain too?"

"If you can come, why can't I?" Luo Feng chuckled.

Moluo was very surprised. He was naturally preparing for the upcoming Qualification Battle, and among the geniuses who might become his opponents, he paid close attention to Luo Feng! Because Luo Feng was simply too formidable; not long after joining the Virtual Universe Company, he had already defeated Sajin Huolong! How could such a rapid pace of progress not make one feel pressure!

"Roar~~" The ape-like Illusory Beast's head on the ground still let out a low growl.

Moluo glanced at the Illusory Beast's head, his expression slightly changing, and he quickly urged, "Luo Feng, let's go quickly! Hurry!"

Whoosh!

Moluo swiftly fled!

Luo Feng was puzzled but also transformed into a streak of light, following Moluo in a rapid escape.

...

Moluo in front, Luo Feng behind, they flew through three deep cave passages before finally stopping.

"Luo Feng," Moluo landed on the ice, smiling as he looked at Luo Feng. "I've heard much about your reputation, but we've never had a chance to talk. I didn't expect us to meet on Demonic Sound Mountain."

Luo Feng nodded, then frowned and asked, "By the way, Moluo, why were you in such a hurry to run just now?"

"Oh."

Moluo shook his head helplessly. "It's like this, actually, not far from where I was fighting the Illusory Beast just now, there's an Illusory Beast lair. These past two days, I've actually been chased by Illusory Beasts, trying every possible way to escape. But... relying on my own strength, I couldn't even deal with that Illusory Beast just now. Using a spaceship? Spaceships are fast in a straight line, but in winding, deep caves, constantly accelerating and decelerating, their speed is actually inferior to what I can achieve with a metal lifeform."

Luo Feng nodded.

The acceleration of most spaceships is very slow; it takes a long time to reach light speed.

Of course, high-performance Mechanical Race Spaceships accelerate much faster, but they are still far slower than the instantaneous burst speed of a Demon Killer clone!

"My spaceship doesn't have a laser cannon as powerful as yours," Moluo shook his head. "So I've been stuck in a stalemate."

"Illusory Beast lair?" Luo Feng nodded slightly.

He had encountered them before; Illusory Beast lairs were indeed terrifying.

"Anyway, I wouldn't dare go back to that place," Moluo shook his head, then looked at Luo Feng curiously. "Luo Feng, how long have you been in Demonic Sound Mountain, and haven't you encountered any danger?"

"Less than four months," Luo Feng said. "Not as long as you've been here."

Before he came in, two Core Members had already challenged the Demonic Mountain.

It could now be confirmed that Moluo was one of them.

"It seems you also want to stay for the full three years," Moluo's eyes gleamed slightly, and he sighed. "This Demonic Sound Mountain is too dangerous, especially the 'Demonic Sound'. Fortunately, I found a pattern. Otherwise, I would have become a walking corpse long ago."

"Pattern?" Luo Feng looked at Moluo.

"You've survived until now, and you haven't discovered the pattern of the Demonic Sound?" Moluo retorted.

Luo Feng was startled.

Aside from the cave with the terrifying suction force, other Demonic Sounds posed no threat to him, so he truly hadn't paid attention to any patterns.

"First, you can't stay in one place for too long. As time passes, the strongest Demonic Sound you experience each day will grow stronger," Moluo chuckled. "You must know this; even the natives know it."
