Luo Feng's Battle Plan

“Self-destruct, this must be an Immortal controlled by a soul!” Luo Feng was greatly alarmed. “Woooo~~~” The Golden Horn Behemoth let out a painful roar. At such close range, it was impossible to dodge an Immortal’s sudden self-destruct attack. Cultivating to become an Immortal was incredibly difficult, and the energy truly contained within an Immortal was no less than that of a star. With this self-destruct, billions of years of accumulated Immortal power instantly erupted! Since it self-destructed, how could any Immortal power remain? Moreover, this was a Flame Immortal. “Boom~~~” It was hundreds, even thousands of times hotter than law-infused flames. Even fragments of cosmic space instantly melted into a particle stream. It was as if the process of a supernova explosion was condensed into a single instant, producing an unbelievable amount of power. The Golden Horn Behemoth, being the closest, was naturally the first to be struck by this terrifying explosion. Its golden right claw was the hardest part of the Golden Horn Behemoth’s entire body. If the Golden Horn Behemoth’s overall strength increased by approximately 330 times, then other parts of its body only saw a 30-fold increase. However, its golden right claw was thousands, even tens of thousands of times stronger than an ordinary hoof-claw. This is why the average overall increase was 330 times. This greatly enhanced golden right hoof-claw... was even harder than many Immortal weapons. In the face of the particle stream formed by this terrifying explosion, even cosmic space melted, yet the golden right claw stubbornly resisted. “Sizzle sizzle sizzle~~~” “Woooo~~” The Golden Horn Behemoth roared in agony. The neck and abdomen, closest to the golden right hoof-claw, were both impacted. The black scales on its neck and abdomen instantly turned fiery red, then immediately disintegrated into ash. “Sizzle sizzle sizzle~~” The thick, powerful, intertwined muscles within, which could tear through cosmic space, burst forth with immense power. Yet, in the face of the scorching particle stream from the Flame Immortal’s self-destruct, these muscles almost instantly burned to ash. Its internal organs instantly turned to ash! Its golden bones, clearly much stronger than its muscles and scales, were slowly changing color, their original golden hue gradually dimming. ...The particle stream impact generated by the self-destruct spread in all directions! The Golden Horn Behemoth was only one direction among many. In other directions were numerous shattered corpses of Universe Lord-tier pinnacle insectoids. These corpses were, after all, Universe Lord-tier pinnacle insectoids, each with incredibly tough scales. Even with an E9-grade laser gun, it would be difficult to blast through a single piece of their carapaces. This was mainly because insectoid corpses were inanimate, with no energy infused into their carapaces. True Universe Lord insectoid warriors had even stronger defenses! The corpses were considerably weaker, yet still not to be underestimated. Thus, the explosion was originally powerful enough to spread over tens of millions of kilometers. However, the surroundings were filled with endless Universe Lord-tier pinnacle insectoid corpses. When the intensely hot particle stream struck these corpses, they instantly melted into ash. The particle stream continuously surged outwards, burning vast numbers of insectoid corpses to ash, while others became fragments, scattering everywhere. The self-destruct affected a range of tens of thousands of kilometers. Almost all Universe Lord-tier pinnacle insectoid corpses within a hundred kilometers turned to ash. Between a hundred and tens of thousands of kilometers, many insectoid corpses were further shattered, but most were merely propelled afar by the impact, suffering little damage. After all! After layers upon layers of resistance from Universe Lord-tier pinnacle insectoids, even an Immortal’s self-destruct could only penetrate so many layers. ...However, the Golden Horn Behemoth, with a body length of just over a hundred kilometers, suffered the most terrible impact. The most intense period of the self-destruct lasted only 0.01 seconds, after which the explosion’s impact rapidly weakened. Even the collapsing cosmic space automatically repaired itself. One could see... under the fading burning flames, the Golden Horn Behemoth ‘trembled’ as it hovered in mid-air. At this moment, the Golden Horn Behemoth... resembled a ‘Skeleton Golden Horn Behemoth’. Only its right hoof-claw, the tip of its tail, and the edges of its scaled wings were still covered in scales. The main part of its body was reduced to dim bones, and even its head was just a skull with five sharp horns. “Too terrifying.” “This power is so immense that even the Golden Horn Behemoth clone couldn’t withstand it, turning into a Skeleton Golden Horn Behemoth,” Luo Feng mused inwardly. At the same time—Whoosh! The Skeleton Golden Horn Behemoth continued to fly rapidly into the distance. Simultaneously, about eighty thousand kilometers from the Golden Horn Behemoth clone, there were some shattered Moyun Teng vine fragments. Yet, among these shattered fragments, several vines were wrapped around an entire insectoid corpse unit within a few kilometers! At the core of these vines... was an insectoid scale! Swish! The scale instantly transformed into Luo Feng—his Earthling true body. “Whoosh!” Luo Feng also swiftly flew towards the distant Skeleton Golden Horn Behemoth. When the two were close, the Golden Horn Behemoth vanished into thin air, directly entering his ‘inner world’. ...Yes. Luo Feng’s true life core, the ‘origin core,’ was not inside the Golden Horn Behemoth at all. Earlier... when Luo Feng discovered Assassin No. 6 Kelalunsi, he wanted to use this battle to test himself. However, he also knew very well... that the means to infiltrate the heavily guarded Wulong Starfield and assassinate him must be extraordinary. To prevent playing with fire and losing his life. So, when Luo Feng formulated his battle plan, the first thing he considered was... what if he couldn’t defeat his opponent? He considered failure before victory! Therefore—when Luo Feng unleashed the Moyun Teng, allowing its 216 main vines to spread out over tens of thousands of kilometers, he had already transformed his ‘Demon Killer Clan clone’ into a vine leaf attached to one of the main vines, and placed his origin core within the Demon Killer Clan clone’s body. Furthermore! At that time, the main vines, stretching tens of thousands of kilometers, had another purpose: to send the ‘Demon Killer Clan clone vine leaf’ tens of thousands of kilometers away from the battle. That vine leaf directly hid inside the ‘Universe Lord insectoid corpse cluster.’ The moment it entered the corpse cluster, the Demon Killer Clan clone vine leaf transformed into an ‘insectoid scale.’ Blended into that corpse cluster, it was completely inconspicuous. Then, when the Flame Immortal appeared, it instantly caused a large number of Moyun Teng vines to shatter and explode, sending fragments flying. At that moment, how could the Flame Immortal... possibly notice a single scale fragment within an insectoid corpse cluster tens of thousands of kilometers away? After all, the surrounding insectoid corpses were endless, making suspicion impossible. Subsequently! The World Projection spread out, covering tens of thousands of kilometers. Simultaneously, the Golden Horn Behemoth appeared, and Luo Feng’s Earthling true body instantly entered his inner world! ...The Golden Horn Behemoth’s battle against the Flame Immortal fully allowed Luo Feng to achieve his goal of testing his combat power. If successful, it would naturally be a joyous occasion. If it failed, the Golden Horn Behemoth would self-destruct directly! It was merely the loss of a clone. At worst, he would just expend a bit more World Power to nurture another Golden Horn Behemoth clone within his inner world! As for the Blood Luo power in its right hoof-claw... if he could retrieve the remnants of the right hoof-claw afterward, that would be good, as it could be refined and integrated into the new Golden Horn Behemoth’s body. If the opponent took away the remnants of the right hoof-claw... at worst, he would just consume another 100 Blood Luo Crystals to integrate into the Golden Horn Behemoth clone. ... “Whether I succeed or fail, I stand in an invincible position. And if things truly go south, encountering an incredibly powerful enemy, when the Golden Horn Behemoth falls in battle, I can still throw out my Earthling true body, and at the same time casually toss out some items from a spatial ring, pretending that my inner world has collapsed, and let the enemy kill my Earthling true body. This would make the enemy believe they have truly killed me,” Luo Feng mused inwardly. This was truly the worst-case scenario. Luo Feng would only resort to this tactic against an opponent so powerful that even the Golden Horn Behemoth’s self-destruct couldn’t kill them. And no matter what, the Demon Killer Clan clone, transformed into an ‘insectoid carapace,’ would definitely remain hidden within the endless sea of insectoid corpses... ...For any unforeseen situation, Luo Feng had devised countermeasures. In short, with his Demon Killer Clan clone, Golden Horn Behemoth clone, Earthling true body, and immensely vast World Projection, he could formulate many contingency plans. “Damn!” “The power of the Flame Immortal’s self-destruct is truly immense.” Luo Feng looked around. The surroundings were empty, and in the distance, he could see some charred remnants of insectoid corpses. The previous law-infused flames, self-destruct, and so on, had destroyed at least nearly 1,000 insectoid corpse units. This was mainly because these insectoid corpses were too concentrated and no longer possessed any energy from when they were alive. “Such heavy losses?” “Nearly 1,000 insectoid corpse units, and all of them Universe Lord-tier pinnacle insectoids.” Luo Feng’s gaze swept across. “The Wulong Starfield, upon discovering a loss of nearly ten million mixed-element units, will probably be furious.” “Hmm?” A thought flashed through Luo Feng’s mind. He instantly flickered! He flew several hundred kilometers away, and at the same time, his inner world spread out, directly sweeping up three hundred Universe Lord insectoid corpse units and hiding them within his inner world. “Hmph!” “Anyway, nearly a thousand Universe Lord insectoid units have already been damaged. Adding these 300 insectoid units won’t be noticeable,” Luo Feng muttered to himself, secretly delighted. Three hundred Universe Lord insectoid corpse units! They would genuinely cost three million mixed-element units to buy, yet he had acquired them just like that. Although he would need to expend a fair amount of World Power to restore the Golden Horn Behemoth, that energy consumption would only amount to a few mixed-element units. These 300 Universe Lord insectoid units were his biggest gain from this attack. However, he didn’t dare take too many. After all, too many would easily expose flaws. “Consider it compensation. If I didn’t have the Golden Horn Behemoth clone, I might have truly died this time. The Wulong Starfield’s response mechanism is truly terrible. I even called Longjue King for help, yet not a single powerful being has arrived yet,” Luo Feng stood in cosmic space, doing nothing, silently waiting. The battle with the Flame Immortal lasted 50 seconds. The peak power of the self-destruct lasted less than 0.01 seconds. The Golden Horn Behemoth returned to the inner world in approximately 0.1 seconds. Afterward... Luo Feng looked around, thought of seizing an opportunity to grab 300 Universe Lord insectoid units, and then truly moving these insectoid units into his inner world, which took about 1 second. ...The description is slow, but in reality, for a powerful being like Luo Feng, whose consciousness reaction speed rivaled a quantum computer and whose instantaneous speed reached tens of thousands of kilometers per second, it was naturally as fast as lightning. Having done all this, Luo Feng silently waited in cosmic space, assuming the role of a victim. “I am a victim, after all,” Luo Feng muttered to himself.
