Chapter 777

Nuolanshan?

The Yan Ji Continent is comprised of a main continent and numerous surrounding land fragments. Though merely fragments, some of the larger ones are so vast that even light would take one or two months to traverse them completely, giving a sense of their immense scale. A black flying saucer soared above one of these land fragments. "It's truly enormous," Luo Feng remarked, standing in the control room, gazing down at the boundless, seemingly endless land below. "Even just a land fragment, and I can't see its end." "Luo Feng, according to the star map, the main continent is Yan Ji Continent Land No. 01. The land fragment we are currently passing over is Land No. 09, with a maximum diameter of approximately 900 billion kilometers. Our flight path around it is about 700 billion kilometers. Even if we maintain a continuous speed of 290,000 kilometers per second, it would still take about a month to fly across this area," Babata's voice echoed in the control room. Luo Feng nodded. In the Shattered Star Belt, Luo Feng's team's operational range was only a few days' light travel. This Land No. 09, surrounding the main continent, would take about a month to fly across, making it perfectly suited as a battlefield for powerful experts from various races. "Immortal Gods leading legions?" "Hmm, tsk tsk, is that the Chi'an Race? My first time seeing a Chi'an Race lifeform. Just as adorable as described in the inherited memories. Looking solely at their appearance, it's probably impossible to imagine the true terror of these 'adorable' Chi'an Race members." "Oh, a Marquis-level Immortal God?" As the spaceship flew above Yan Ji Continent Land No. 09, Luo Feng clearly observed many teams within a billion-kilometer radius through the detection instruments. Just as he suspected, this Land No. 09—though only a land fragment—was so vast that many alien experts were still lurking within it. The various teams and numerous alien experts were clearly much stronger than those in the Shattered Star Belt. At the very least, Immortal Gods were a common sight. Luo Feng was dazzled by the spectacle. After a while, Luo Feng lost the inclination to scrutinize every team. He simply instructed, "Babata, you're in charge of the detection instruments. Only alert me if something happens." Then, Luo Feng returned to the rest cabin, which was made of F9-grade metal—one of the spoils of war accumulated by Prince Meng Weina over the years. ... After flying above Yan Ji Continent Land No. 09 for over half a month. Inside the rest cabin, Luo Feng was meditating cross-legged. "Luo Feng, Luo Feng!" Babata's urgent and anxious voice reverberated through the cabin. "What's wrong?" Luo Feng asked. "Come to the control room, quickly!" Babata urged. "So mysterious," Luo Feng chuckled, then walked out of the cabin and quickly entered the control room. The control room had already automatically activated the external virtual display. Luo Feng immediately looked down, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Babata, why did you stop the spaceship? We planned to enter the main continent. Why are we stopping above Land No. 09?" "Hehe," Babata chuckled strangely. *Buzz!* A projection screen appeared before Luo Feng. On the screen was an image of a person: a man in a dark green combat suit, with pointed ears and red, scorpion-like eyes. Just looking at the image made one feel his coldness. "Nuolanshan?" Luo Feng was startled. "Babata, why are you showing me a picture of Nuolanshan? Could it be—" Luo Feng's eyes lit up. "Hehe, congratulations, you guessed it," Babata said proudly. "You actually found Nuolanshan?" Luo Feng was surprised. Even with a hunch, he couldn't quite believe it. How vast was the Outer Territory Battlefield? Although he had traveled through a huge area in his spaceship, sweeping with detection instruments, the scanned area was still only a tiny fraction of the Outer Territory Battlefield. To actually encounter Nuolanshan—this was truly 'fate'! "The spaceship was flying above Land No. 09, with the detection instruments constantly active. Although we saw a very small number of human teams, there was nothing special. Just now, the detection suddenly picked up Nuolanshan. Of course, I immediately confirmed the signal and stopped the spaceship. Back then, Nuolanshan used many methods to seize the treasures on Earth. You and your family almost fell into his hands," Babata said. "Now that you've encountered him, as they say on Earth... fate wants you to take revenge on him!" "Hmm." A hint of coldness flashed in Luo Feng's eyes. Nuolanshan, back then, first dispatched an interstellar fleet directly to Earth, using military might to intimidate the planet. Many Earthlings died in the process, forcing Earth's elites out of their 'base fortresses,' threatening to destroy Earth's Base Cities... Fortunately, Luo Feng became Earth's Lord in time, using the laws of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire to force them to retreat. The Nuolanshan family, unwilling to give up, secretly left behind a special elite team, swiftly and covertly kidnapping Earth's leaders, as well as Luo Feng's wife, Xu Xin, and his younger brother, Luo Hua, to use as leverage. Many of their methods failed. They even arranged for two Universe-level experts to come, one of whom died, and the other became Luo Feng's soul slave. Finally, because of the 'Realm-within-a-Realm' incident, Luo Feng asked a powerful expert to kill Nuolanshan, but Nuolanshan had already fled in fear, directly to the Outer Territory Battlefield. One layer of schemes after another. If any one of them had gone wrong—for example, if Luo Feng had become Earth's Lord a little later, Earth might have become a ruin, with countless casualties. If Luo Feng hadn't successfully rescued his family, they might have died tragically. "Nuolanshan!" Luo Feng's heart was filled with killing intent. "It's been over 4,000 years. I wonder how strong you've become." "Babata," Luo Feng commanded, "Detect the current Nuolanshan and project it." "Yes." Immediately, a shocking battle scene appeared on the projection screen in front of Luo Feng. On one side were humans, consisting of two Immortal Gods, nearly 200 Sector Lords, nearly 2,000 Domain Lords, and nearly 20,000 Universe-level cultivators. On the other side was the Demon Race, led by a Demon Race Immortal. This Immortal was a creature with four thick, clawed hooves, its entire body covered in scales, with a thin layer of combat armor faintly covering the scales. It had two grotesque heads; one head had golden eyes, and the other grotesque head had silver eyes. This powerful Demon Race Immortal God, fighting two-on-one, actually suppressed the two human Immortal Gods. At the same time, the thousands of Demon Race warriors at the Sector Lord, Domain Lord, and Universe-level tiers had varied appearances. The smallest was over ten meters long, and the largest reached 32 kilometers in length. Though only a few thousand Demon Race warriors, their aura completely overwhelmed the human side. Among the nearly 200 human Sector Lords, there was a figure—Nuolanshan! "A Third-tier Sector Lord?" Luo Feng glanced down from the spaceship's control room, but could only see endless mist, not the battle scene below. He then looked up, continuing to watch the projection, and sneered, "Nuolanshan has made quick progress. In over four thousand years, he's actually reached the Third-tier Sector Lord. The effect of life-and-death tempering is indeed quite good." "Distress call, distress call. We have encountered a Demon Race Immortal with the peak strength of an Immortal General." A distress message was sent directly to Luo Feng via the military system through the virtual universe network. Distress calls are sent directly to all allies and comrades within a 10 billion-kilometer radius. Luo Feng was less than 100 million kilometers from the battlefield, but because his detection instruments were advanced, they blocked the detection of both sides below. Therefore, neither side could detect him. However, the human side could know the coordinates of allies and comrades within a certain range through the 'military system.' "Luo Feng, one of the human Immortal Gods in the battle below is requesting to speak with you," Babata said. "Connect," Luo Feng nodded. "Transfer it to my arm-guard screen." A white-robed man appeared on the arm-guard screen, his face full of urgency: "Comrade, please help us. My detection instruments can't find you, but I know your location through the military system. Your strength should be greater than ours. Especially with our two Immortal Gods, we should be able to deal with that Demon Race Immortal. Please help. The two of us are almost at our limit, and those weaker Universe-level, Domain Lords, and Sector Lords will also collapse and scatter. Sector Lords might have a chance to escape, but the probability for Universe-level and Domain Lords will be very low. We are all humans, please help." "Hmm," Luo Feng nodded. *Snap*, he closed the communication. "That Nuolanshan is truly cunning," Luo Feng said, looking at the battle situation on the projection. "As a Third-tier Sector Lord, he's naturally no match for those peak Sector Lord Demon Race members. Yet he's letting other Sector Lords cover for him. It seems he has good connections." "If this continues, he might escape. Many Universe-level and Domain Lords, however, will die," Luo Feng shook his head. His black combat armor quickly extended, forming a black helmet, and his combat boots integrated with the full armor. At the same time, a strange, disc-shaped stone plate, about three meters long and half a meter wide at its widest point—the Luofu Liupan—appeared beneath his feet. In one hand, he held a magnificent golden shield, about two meters tall, with carvings of Beast Gods along its edges. "The Golden Horned Beast doesn't need to use Beast God Weapons, so this Beast God Weapon is for my Earthling body," Luo Feng thought to himself. The Luofu Liupan, the Beast God Weapon... these were Luo Feng's standard combat equipment for the future. *Boom!* The hatch had already opened, and Luo Feng swiftly shot out. Then, he plunged downwards. ... Above a vast mountain range, two teams, human and demon, were locked in battle. On the stone walls of the mountains, one could still see some massive, ancient carvings, left by the indigenous inhabitants of the Yan Ji Continent. However, after billions of years, the indigenous people were all gone. Although these carvings contained some strange energy, they were still very dilapidated. "Second Brother, I can't hold on much longer," Nuolanshan said anxiously. "We're about to collapse. Let's prepare to escape." "Fifth Brother, you must leave quickly." "Fifth Brother, you're only a Third-tier Sector Lord. You'll surely die against these peak Sector Lords. Many Universe-level and Domain Lords are starting to scatter. You must escape quickly. We have to buy you time." "Second Brother, you—" Nuolanshan was anxious. "Go." "We won't die." Amidst the frenzied battle, Nuolanshan, outwardly pained, thought to himself: "This is my 63rd escape on the Outer Territory Battlefield. Indeed, life-and-death battles easily forge brothers. Without these brothers, I wouldn't have survived until today. What a pity, over a thousand years of emotional investment might just be wasted." Just as Nuolanshan was about to flee—a terrifying aura suddenly descended from the sky. "Awoo~~~" A cry echoed through heaven and earth. A gigantic, incredibly beautiful phantom of a flying beast swooped down from high above, shocking both sides.
