Chapter 835

Treasure Chamber

Cangjin King, Ice Blade, and Zizhong King's group quickly split into two, exploring along two corridors. “Cangjin King is the strongest and incredibly fast, I'll follow him,” Yechen King transmitted. “Huci King, Yang, you two take the other corridor... absolutely do not let Ice Blade and Zizhong King get the treasure.” “Understood.” “They're dreaming if they think they'll get the treasure,” Huci King grinned sinisterly to Luo Feng. They swiftly transformed into two streaks of light and gave chase, while Yechen King also swiftly pursued in Cangjin King's direction. Both teams split into two paths in pursuit! Because the entire sacrificial tower contained incredibly complex sacrificial law secret patterns, under special application, the entire interior of the sacrificial tower was completely space-sealed, preventing teleportation. Thus, both teams could only rely on speed to fly. It was then that Luo Feng's advantage became apparent; with a flap of his silver wings... Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Through the winding corridors, he rapidly changed direction and constantly accelerated, making it impossible for even Huci King to keep up. “Yang, you go ahead and block them, hinder them,” Huci King said, knowing his speed couldn't match Luo Feng's. After all, Luo Feng's strength was inferior to theirs; the very reason he was invited was this advantage. “Don't worry, leave it to me.” Luo Feng's speed continued to soar. Because the corridors were inside the sacrificial tower, and the core area was only tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter, this deep, winding corridor stretched for hundreds of thousands of kilometers, encircling numerous areas of the core region. Some places were very narrow, constantly twisting and turning, even with nearly 180-degree sharp turns, forcing Luo Feng to sharply decelerate to almost a stop before immediately turning. In such a passage... Just as they accelerated, they had to immediately decelerate, then accelerate again, then decelerate again. Each turn, whether a few kilometers short or a hundred kilometers long, was easily covered by a King-level expert in a single dash. This made it incredibly frustrating for the many experts desperate to gain speed. It was like the winding alleyways of a slum on Earth; even the best sports car couldn't reach top speed in such twists and turns. For beings whose maximum speed approached the speed of light, turns that were a few kilometers short or a hundred kilometers long were sheer torture. “The longest turn is only a hundred kilometers; we have to decelerate right after accelerating. We can't pick up speed at all, only maintain flexible transitions at low speeds,” Cangjin King growled, his eyes filled with fury. “Haha, Cangjin King, your speed is astonishing, but in such narrow spaces, your advantage can't be utilized. I am of the Winged Human race, skilled at changing direction, haha,” Yechen King called out from behind. “Hmph!” Cangjin King let out a low snort and turned to look at Yechen King. Boom! A lightning bolt as thick as a water vat burst forth directly from Cangjin King's eyes. The moment it erupted, it immediately dispersed, coiling like countless electric snakes, forming a massive electric net that directly enveloped Yechen King behind him. The passage was only so wide, and the electric net completely blocked the entire passage. “Bang.” A cold glint flashed in Yechen King's golden eyes. His entire being faintly transformed into a streak of white light, forcefully breaking through the electric net, but it also affected his speed. “Want to surpass me? Haha, Yechen King, you junior are dreaming. I'll always be ahead of you. As long as a treasure is found, I'll definitely be the first to get it,” Cangjin King transmitted with a sneering laugh. From time to time, he would turn his head and shoot lightning from his eyes to obstruct Yechen King, who gritted his teeth but could do nothing. ... Yechen King and Cangjin King were so entangled, while on the other side. Luo Feng, however, was different. Due to the naturally twisting and turning corridors, none of the six great experts could reach their maximum speed, and Luo Feng was no exception. But Luo Feng was skilled at changing direction... which gave him a significant advantage. In such a bizarre passage, he could almost reach ten times the speed of Zizhong King and Ice Blade. Ten times, what a concept? He caught up in an instant. “Still trying to escape,” Luo Feng thought as two figures, one large and one small, appeared in his sight ahead: Ice Blade and Zizhong King. “He caught up,” Zizhong King jumped in surprise as he caught sight of Luo Feng out of the corner of his eye while turning. “This Yang, so fast.” “It's fine, this Yang is the weakest among the three of them. He probably just excels at flying in these narrow, winding areas,” Ice Blade said confidently. “Zizhong King, it's up to you now.” “I can blast them back with a single strike,” Zizhong King said confidently. Luo Feng's speed was too great. He was about to overtake them directly from the side! “Roar~~~” Zizhong King opened his mouth, and a faint roar, barely audible, rang out. At the same time, an invisible, strange wave directly struck Luo Feng. The silver armor withstood the impact of the roar. The remaining impact acted upon the Moyun Battle Armor beneath the silver armor and was directly blocked. Although Luo Feng easily blocked it, his speed was still affected. “Hmph.” Luo Feng's silver wings flapped violently, and he directly unleashed the 'Three-Shake Universe Shuttle' technique. “Whoosh!” With an acceleration, he shot out like a streak of silver light directly from the sides of Zizhong King and Ice Blade, so fast that Zizhong King didn't even have time to attack. “Quick, stop him,” Ice Blade said urgently. “Zizhong King, you're the best at obstructing!” “Bastard.” Zizhong King gritted his teeth and roared again, instantly unleashing a visible bell formed by ripples. This massive bell flew like lightning, its attack speed naturally far surpassing Luo Feng's flying speed. The ripple-formed bell directly enveloped Luo Feng, then violently vibrated with a 'buzz~~~' and burst apart, the attack almost entirely absorbed by Luo Feng. “Damn it.” Luo Feng's body also trembled, and his speed sharply decreased. “You human, don't even think about getting the treasure! The treasure is mine!” Zizhong King roared via telepathy. “Up!” Luo Feng's wings flapped, the Shi Wu Wings were indeed formidable. Although he had been affected earlier, with just a flap of his wings, he shot out again, making it impossible for Zizhong King and Ice Blade behind him to catch up at all. “Now I know why Yechen King invited him. This human's flight is too bizarre, and his instant burst of speed is too astonishing, to be so fast even in these narrow, winding areas,” Ice Blade said. “Zizhong King, with this little skill of yours! Haha... you can dream of getting the treasure,” Luo Feng transmitted via telepathy. At the same time, he himself turned and entered another bend. Zizhong King behind him could no longer see Luo Feng with his naked eye and couldn't even attack if he wanted to. “Bastard.” “Chase.” Zizhong King and Ice Blade, the two great experts, gritted their teeth and pursued from behind. ... In the sacrificial tower's core control room, the four great native experts of Yan Ji Continent were watching the two sides chase each other. “These foreign races are really fighting fiercely.” “The fiercer they fight, the better. It'd be great if they killed each other off,” Qiu Chika said coldly, looking at the virtual projection. “These foreign races... it was the four peak races who opened up a battlefield back then, destroying our race and occupying our homeland. In the future, in the future, in the future, we must make them taste the flavor of racial annihilation!!!” “Let them also know the taste of racial annihilation!” The four King-level experts all gritted their teeth, endless hatred filling their chests. But they themselves knew that this was merely their wish... an unachievable wish. Even if their race had still existed back then, countless times stronger than now... they would still have been easily crushed by the peak races. Hunters kill a large number of prey, and prey naturally want revenge. But if a hunter feared the prey's revenge, they wouldn't be a hunter. This was the law of the jungle! Cosmic resources were abundant, but billions of races were also terrifyingly numerous. Which race occupied more resources... depended on whose strength was greater! The naked law of the jungle. “Of the two corridors, the path chosen by those four foreign experts... is the closest to the first treasure chamber. That silver-winged human is the fastest; he's almost at the first treasure chamber,” Qiu Chika said softly. ... As Luo Feng flew along the corridor, he also quickly observed the large chambers beside it. They were clearly visible to the naked eye, each one empty, incredibly clean, and devoid of anything. “Hmm?” Luo Feng instantly saw that a hundred-meter-wide hatch of a passage chamber ahead was half-open. And at the entrance of the hatch lay the corpse of an Immortal God. “It's the Immortal corpse of a native from Yan Ji Continent, likely having suffered a soul sweep and instantly perished,” Luo Feng mused. Based on the chamber's location, unlike the haphazard placement of many previous chambers, this one was centrally located, with the corridor encircling it. This made Luo Feng slightly decelerate and take a careful look inside. At a glance. Inside, a translucent platform was set up, and in front of it, a body sat cross-legged. Judging by Luo Feng's aura perception, it was likely the corpse of an Immortal God who had already perished. On the platform, three gray boxes, about the size of ordinary books, were solemnly placed, making Luo Feng's eyes light up. Whoosh! Luo Feng's wings flapped, cutting an arc, and he whistled into the chamber. Inside the chamber, which was hundreds of meters long and wide, Luo Feng glanced at the cross-legged corpse but paid no attention. His gaze mainly fell on the translucent platform in the center, about ten meters long and wide. On this translucent platform was dense, intricate text, which was clearly present in humanity's language database. “It's the language of the Yan Ji Continent natives,” Luo Feng thought. He had long since mastered all the languages in his database. With Luo Feng's consciousness calculation speed, a language could be learned and flexibly used in a matter of seconds. “This is...” Luo Feng understood immediately upon seeing the text. The text described: “Our race is facing a great catastrophe. Each of the three treasure boxes in this treasure chamber contains a world ring, and these world rings hold a large number of treasures. We hope that future generations of our race can make it rise again. The treasure boxes contain a sensing and detection system; only members of this race can open them; foreign races cannot.” “Exquisitely crafted, treasure boxes made from G9-grade metal imbued with law secret patterns?” Luo Feng's gaze swept over them, seeing the dense, intricate patterns on the treasure boxes. “To forcibly break them open, one would probably need the strength of a Universe Master. These meticulously crafted boxes alone are worth over ten million mixed yuan units. As for opening them...” “Who cares, I'll figure it out later.” Luo Feng revealed a slight smile and casually took all three treasure boxes. “Leave the treasure!” Ice Blade, flying outside the chamber, suddenly accelerated. Looking into the chamber, he immediately gritted his teeth and roared via telepathy. “The treasure is mine!” Zizhong King's eyes were even more filled with madness. Although they didn't see the treasure boxes, they saw Luo Feng standing inside the chamber... Given the urgency of searching for treasure, it was impossible for him to stop in one place. If he stopped, it must mean there was treasure that attracted him. “Cangjin King! Yang got the treasure!” Ice Blade suddenly roared. With Immortal Divine Power as the transmission medium, this roar immediately spread along the passage. The speed of divine power transmission was astonishing, and the corridor Cangjin King had chosen... and the corridor Luo Feng's group had chosen, originally had interconnecting spiral passages. “Treasure?” A sharp glint flashed in Cangjin King's eyes, who was currently entangled in a fight. “Yang got the treasure?” Yechen King was instead delighted. Whoosh! Whoosh! The two great experts immediately swiftly flew along the passage in the direction the sound came from.
