Silver Combat Armor

Luo Feng reached out and took the 100 world rings. Such large transactions always came with free opportunities for treasure hunting. Purchasing 10,000 units of insectoid corpses was a hundred times more than his last purchase, so naturally, he earned a century of free treasure hunting. “It’s much more enjoyable to freely treasure hunt in Wulong Starfield,” Luo Feng said with a smile. “Haha, connect to the Virtual Universe Network,” Longjue King said. “I need to send you the monitoring map. This step must be verified by the Virtual Universe System.” “Understood,” Luo Feng nodded. The Virtual Universe System possessed numerous functions, including witnessing and verification. Organizations like the Universe First Bank, Cosmic River Bank, Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, and Giant Axe Martial Arena all relied on the Virtual Universe Network. This made Luo Feng, despite already knowing its power, marvel at the Virtual Universe System once more. … A moment later, Luo Feng received authorization, and the monitoring map of the entire Wulong Starfield appeared on his arm guard screen. “Longjue King, I’ll go treasure hunting now,” Luo Feng said with a smile. “I wish you good fortune in finding rare treasures,” Longjue King replied. “Haha…” Luo Feng chuckled, then transformed into a streak of light and departed the palace. Watching Luo Feng leave, Longjue King couldn’t help but think, “Wasting time treasure hunting in a debris field? Hmm, he’s reached the Sector Lord level… he’s probably preparing for a life-and-death trial. Before such a trial, he likely wants to relax and enjoy some treasure hunting. Poor fellow, I wonder if he’ll survive the trial.” Historically, too many super geniuses had fallen during life-and-death trials. Without undergoing trials, one could never become a true powerhouse. Humanity knew the dangers, yet still sent their Sector Lord-level geniuses to experience these trials. … Wulong Starfield was almost entirely filled with countless remnants from past clan wars. Various debris clogged the starry sky, though it was systematically divided into sections. “Last time, when I was searching for carapace fragments, that guide kept following me, which was truly troublesome. This time is better… I’m alone, free and unburdened.” Luo Feng, aboard his spaceship, looked down at the monitoring star map on his wrist. “Hmm, so many white dots on the star map must be internal personnel. These red dots… wait, my current coordinates are also a red dot. It seems they represent outsiders.” Soon, Luo Feng understood the monitoring star map. In fact, the monitoring star map’s secret permissions weren’t very high. Even internal grassroots personnel had access to it, so with Luo Feng’s current authority, he could easily obtain authorization. “Babata, stop here.” “Understood.” The Yunmo Star ship rapidly decelerated, stopped, and then transitioned back to the original universe. Poof! A blood-colored triangular spaceship suddenly appeared at one of the internal docking points within Wulong Starfield. “Huh?” Luo Feng flew out of the cabin. “Summon!” Luo Feng felt the summoning and turned to look into the distance. “It’s in that direction, there are carapace fragments there.” With a flick of his hand, Luo Feng put away the Yunmo Star ship and swiftly flew in that direction. His speed rapidly increased, soon approaching light speed, moving at approximately 280,000 kilometers per second. … Light speed was the ultimate speed limit in the Primal Universe. Accelerating to light speed would ‘kick’ one into the dark universe, completing cosmic travel. Immortals could all achieve physical cosmic travel. Most Sector Lords, however, could not. Even the peak human Sector Lords generally had a maximum speed of 150,000 kilometers per second. The main reason was that Sector Lords’ physical bodies weren’t strong enough; as speed increased, the physical load grew exponentially! The Golden Horn Beast’s body was powerful enough to achieve physical cosmic travel. This was extremely rare! Even Luo Feng, who had cultivated the nameless secret manual and whose physical body was three times stronger than a normal peak Sector Lord, still couldn’t achieve physical cosmic travel. However, Luo Feng possessed the treasure ‘Combat Armor’. Back when Luo Feng was a peak Domain Lord, he couldn’t fully utilize the Combat Armor’s power, but now he could. The Combat Armor could unleash 1,000 times the power of a peak Sector Lord. During acceleration, the Combat Armor could resist over 90% of the load, allowing Luo Feng to easily reach a speed of 280,000 kilometers per second. Reaching light speed would also not be difficult. “Haha, good luck.” “This time, I immediately found two silver carapace fragments.” Luo Feng stood in a debris field, his face beaming with joy. “Last time, it took two years to find only 232 black carapace fragments, 12 silver carapace fragments, and 1 broken blade. That was just enough to assemble two sets of Combat Armor.” Combat Armor was truly wondrous. It offered strong defense, provided immense power, and had an obstructing effect against mental attacks. However, a single set of Combat Armor adding 1,000 times the power of a peak Sector Lord was impressive for the Golden Horn Beast back then, but after 1,200 years in Chaos City, the current ‘Golden Horn Beast’ was much stronger… a single set of Combat Armor no longer provided a significant boost to the Golden Horn Beast’s strength. One must remember that the Golden Horn Beast’s base strength alone was 30 times that of a human (a normal Golden Horn Beast was 10 times, plus the 3-fold amplification from the nameless secret manual, totaling 30 times)! Driving its right claw with Blood River energy added an 11-fold amplification. And the ‘Original Body World’ (7.5 times) and ‘Talent Secret Technique’ (2 times) amplifications could boost the body by 15 times! All combined, this amounted to 4,950 times the power of a Sector Lord! The reason for such an outrageous figure was primarily the ‘nameless secret manual’ and ‘Blood River energy’. Without these two, the Golden Horn Beast would only be 150 times that of a human Sector Lord, which was the normal strength of a peak Sector Lord Golden Horn Beast. ‘Blood River energy’ and the ‘nameless secret manual’ caused the Golden Horn Beast’s overall physical strength to skyrocket! The utility of that Combat Armor, therefore, seemed less significant. … Luo Feng, in Wulong Starfield, was like a treasure-seeking rat, diligently searching through one debris field after another. Finding silver carapace fragments was very difficult. Initially, the efficiency was decent, but as time went on… the efficiency gradually declined. In the interim, he even managed to collect several sets of Combat Armor. Clearly, black carapace fragments were much easier to find, but his primary goal this time was silver carapace fragments. Luo Feng did not give up. In fact, Luo Feng dedicated only a sliver of his consciousness to treasure hunting, while his Golden Horn Beast clone and Demon Killer Clan clone continued to study the second layer of ‘Yan Shen Seven Transformations’. … Virtual Universe, Black Dragon Mountain Island, Nine Star Bay. “Dad!” “Dad!” Luo Ping and Luo Hai called from outside the door. “Luo Ping, Luo Hai, your dad just got back. Can’t you let your dad and me have some time alone?” Xu Xin said playfully. “Come in.” “Dad, haven’t you been back often these past 21 years?” Luo Hai laughed heartily, striding in. The two young men walked in. Although they had lived for over four thousand years, they showed no signs of aging. Luo Ping appeared somewhat refined; he now managed the major affairs of the Luo family, exercising the ‘family head’s authority’, which made him appear calm and naturally endowed him with an air of noble elegance. Luo Hai, in contrast, was like a wild barbarian, his eyes burning with fighting spirit. Two sons, two distinct personalities. “Dad, have you been in Wulong Starfield for these past 21 years?” Luo Hai asked. “Yes,” Luo Feng smiled and nodded. Assembling a set of silver Combat Armor was not easy, and he hadn’t succeeded yet. Moreover, his plan was to assemble two sets! He would need to stay in Wulong Starfield for some time. As the saying goes, ‘sharpening the axe won’t delay the chopping of wood.’ Only by thoroughly preparing all his methods could he fully dedicate himself to venturing into the outer battlefield. “After Wulong Starfield, are you going to the outer battlefield?” Luo Hai couldn’t help but ask. “Dad, can you take me with you? I have a Sector Lord-level plant life auxiliary, so it’s very safe.” “You?” Luo Feng shook his head. “You’re still far from ready. Although you have a plant life auxiliary, you yourself are only at Domain Lord Ninth Tier strength… you’d be cannon fodder on the outer battlefield. A sweeping mental attack from other powerful races could affect you, and your life would be over. Even I have to be extremely cautious on the outer battlefield and can’t afford to be distracted protecting you. You should focus on cultivating. Adventuring within human territory is fine for now, but don’t even think about the outer battlefield until you reach peak Sector Lord and possess strength comparable to an Immortal.” “Oh,” Luo Hai responded, hanging his head. Within the family, Luo Hai was fearless and unruly. However, he feared his father, Luo Feng, the most. “Calm down,” Luo Feng instructed. “The resources you have are something others can only dream of. You must cherish them.” “Understood, Dad,” Luo Hai replied. The Luo family was now one of the most prominent families in the Ganwu Universe Nation, naturally possessing considerable foundation. Back when Earth was coveted by many Universe Venerables, Luo Feng, during his transaction with the Virtual Universe Company, left approximately 10 million mixed units of Locke Divine Water with the family to cultivate plant life. 10 million mixed units of Locke Divine Water were enough to cultivate hundreds of peak Sector Lord plant lives. And Luo Feng had plenty more Locke Divine Water; this was just a drop in the ocean. Of course, the family was still weak and had no Immortals stationed there, so Luo Feng didn’t dare leave too many treasures with them—though the family’s home base was Earth, and Earth’s safety was now beyond doubt. “Hmm?” Luo Feng’s face suddenly showed a hint of joy. “What’s wrong, Dad?” Luo Hai asked boisterously. “Dad?” Luo Ping also looked at Luo Feng in confusion. “Good news,” Luo Feng smiled. … Wulong Starfield, inside a debris field. “How many years has it been? 21 years. I’ve collected a full 1,985 black carapace fragments, and only now have I finally gathered these 113 silver carapace fragments.” Luo Feng stood inside the debris field, having already forced the ‘Combat Armor Pearl’ out of his body. The large number of silver carapace fragments had long since merged into his body, and a special transformation had begun. Fusion! Luo Feng had experienced this transformation once before, and he knew exactly what it meant… a set of silver Combat Armor was complete! A large amount of silver liquid converged and fused within his body, having reached its limit! Boom! A dramatic change occurred instantly! Luo Feng felt a slight tremor throughout his body, and then a mysterious text imprint appeared on his chest. It was a faint silver text imprint, the Yan God Clan character for ‘General’! Luo Feng looked down at the silver text imprint on his chest and softly murmured, “General?”
