Killing Intent

This was a boundless, endless world of ice and snow. Whoosh! The moment Luo Feng was sucked in, he felt a terrifying pressure bear down on him, as if an colossal mountain had descended upon him. Spreading his wings, Luo Feng forcefully resisted this suppressive power, hovering steadily in the air, gazing down at the boundless icy landscape. “This is the Ice Prison?” Luo Feng surveyed his surroundings. The space felt as if countless invisible blades were constantly vibrating, causing it to tremble ceaselessly. “As expected of a supreme treasure, it keeps the space in constant tremor, making God Kingdom Teleportation impossible to use here.” Luo Feng had anticipated this; any supreme treasure designed for suppression and sealing would inhibit God Kingdom Teleportation. The conditions for executing God Kingdom Teleportation were quite stringent, requiring stable space. During combat or when energy waves were active, God Kingdom Teleportation simply couldn't be performed. “Teleportation is also impossible.” Luo Feng carefully sensed the surroundings and discovered that the spatial fluctuations within the Ice Prison were completely isolated from the outside. “Even with my Demon Killer Clan clone, I can only teleport within the Ice Prison, not out of it. This is quite similar to the forbidden spaces within the Star Tower.” Inside the Star Tower, there were countless forbidden spaces. Powerful individuals could only teleport within one forbidden space, not to others. ...Unable to use God Kingdom Teleportation, unable to teleport, constantly feeling suppressed as if by a colossal mountain—these were Luo Feng's initial impressions upon entering the Ice Prison. The only thing that pleased Luo Feng was... the ability to connect to the Virtual Universe! “Truly incredible.” “Whether I was in the Star Tower, the Demonic Mountain, the Primal Universe, or the Xueluo World... in short, any place I've ever been, I could connect to the Virtual Universe.” Luo Feng couldn't help but marvel, the Virtual Universe was truly omnipresent. Even within supreme treasures and ultimate treasures, the connection remained. “Master, the current space is too unique. Large-scale detectors cannot function properly under this spatial interference. However, miniature detectors are still operating normally.” Babata’s auxiliary AI reported this issue to Luo Feng. Luo Feng nodded inwardly; the technological sophistication of miniature detectors far surpassed that of large-scale ones, proving their utility in this Ice Prison. “Qingdoukou Venerable imprisoned me in this Ice Prison. Surely, he doesn’t intend to keep me here indefinitely. It can’t be that simple, can it?” Luo Feng slowly descended from mid-air, landing on the snow. Treading on the accumulated snow, Luo Feng began to walk, each step covering thousands of kilometers. “I’ll take a good look around this Ice Prison and figure out why Qingdoukou Venerable imprisoned me here.” ...As Luo Feng walked across the snow, his footprints finally attracted another powerful being within the Ice Prison. “Claw prints?” “What kind of claw prints are these?” A blurry dark figure landed on the snow. “None of the powerful beings in the Ice Prison have claw prints like this. Could it be a newcomer?” “Gagaga... My opportunity has arrived.” ...“This Ice Prison is truly vast.” Luo Feng suddenly stopped in the snow, gazing into the distance. “Because the suppressive restraints are too strong, my spiritual force can only cover tens of thousands of kilometers, yet what I’ve explored is clearly just an edge of the entire Ice Prison... I’ve already walked hundreds of thousands of kilometers, and it’s still an endless expanse of ice and snow, with countless ice mountains.” Just like the 'Sealing Star'—the size of a marble—contains a sealing space, or how a single ring might hold an entire world. This 'Ice Prison,' as Qingdoukou Venerable's supreme treasure, contained a space far exceeding its apparent external volume. “Hoo!” Luo Feng took a deep breath, the cold seeping into his chest, then continued to stride forward. “They say many powerful beings are imprisoned in this Ice Prison. I refuse to believe I won’t encounter a single one.” Luo Feng pressed on. ...Footprints were left in the snow, each separated by thousands of kilometers. An ordinary person would be utterly unable to track them, but for a super-powerful being, a thousand kilometers was merely a single stride. “Master, ambush!” The miniature detector swiftly issued an alarm. “Boom!” Luo Feng flapped his wings, causing the very space to tremble, and shot directly into the air. A black streak of light swept past directly beneath Luo Feng, then landed on the snow. “Hm?” Luo Feng looked down from high above. On the snow, a creature coiled, entirely black. It had a body over eight meters long, a saw-like tail slightly longer than its body, and a pair of very long fangs. Its eyes burned with black flames as it stared at Luo Feng, its entire body covered in black scales. “An alien 'Soul Devouring Beast'?” Luo Feng was slightly startled. The Soul Devouring Beast was an extremely rare species in the universe. Like the Golden Horn Behemoth and the Demon Killer Clan, it was renowned for its rarity, and the Soul Devouring Beast's scarcity could fully rival that of the Demon Killer Clan. Such a rare Soul Devouring Beast... also possessed innate secret techniques, and not just one, but two. “Human, you actually recognize me.” A hoarse voice emanated from the Soul Devouring Beast’s mouth. “To encounter a Soul Devouring Beast in the Ice Prison, haha, I suppose we are fated.” Luo Feng smiled, descending slightly from the sky, landing on the snow, and looking at the Soul Devouring Beast, whose eyes were filled with killing intent. “Soul Devouring Beast, I’ve just entered this Ice Prison. Would you be willing to explain the situation here to me?” “Arrogant and reckless human!” The Soul Devouring Beast shrieked, then moved with a whoosh. Swift as lightning! Constantly suppressed within this Ice Prison, its speed was undoubtedly greatly reduced, yet the speed the Soul Devouring Beast displayed was still astonishing. “Hoo.” Luo Feng flapped his wings, easily dodging the attack. “I’m willing to talk with you, why resort to fighting immediately?” Luo Feng said with a relaxed smile. The Soul Devouring Beast, however, let out a hoarse cry and vanished into thin air. “Teleportation?” Luo Feng’s pupils contracted. Behind Luo Feng, the Soul Devouring Beast appeared out of nowhere, opening its gaping maw to bite him. Luo Feng, sensing the bite, simply spread his wings... allowing the Soul Devouring Beast to attack. “Crunch!” The Soul Devouring Beast bit down hard on the Shi Wu Wings, but it felt like biting into G-grade metal. “Soul Blade!” Luo Feng turned to face the Soul Devouring Beast. His immensely powerful will and consciousness guided his ethereal spiritual force, shaping it into a blade, and directly struck the Soul Devouring Beast’s soul according to the ‘Beast God Concept’! A very simple soul attack! Although Luo Feng hadn't delved deeply into soul techniques, his will and consciousness were incredibly strong and precise. While executing intricate illusions might be difficult, a direct soul attack was not. Following the Beast God Concept, the Soul Blade struck directly. Though the technique's intricacies might seem crude, the Beast God Concept was, after all, extremely advanced... Luo Feng's move was no less potent than a casual soul strike from a peak King-level soul master. “Buzz!” The Soul Devouring Beast suddenly stiffened, seemingly dazed by the attack. Luo Feng waved his left hand. Six black spheres shot out consecutively, striking the 'dazed' Soul Devouring Beast. Without any resistance, the first black sphere shattered its bones, the second caused it to completely explode, and the remaining spheres whistled past, scattering the Soul Devouring Beast into countless fragments. Whoosh! The Soul Devouring Beast simply vanished. “Vanished?” Luo Feng’s expression changed. “It didn’t solidify, nor did it teleport. How could it disappear? I didn’t even use Feimo Venom.” To teleport and escape, one must be in a solidified form. If a powerful being is shattered into fragments, those fragments cannot teleport away. If it could disappear even as fragments, there was usually only one explanation: the Soul Devouring Beast’s true body was far away. In that case, even if this divine body shattered, allowing the immortal divine power to dissipate, that power, already imbued with the Soul Devouring Beast’s spiritual imprint, would still return to its true body. “Could it be—” “Clone Technique!” Luo Feng was secretly alarmed. “This was merely a clone of the Soul Devouring Beast.” The Soul Devouring Beast possessed two major innate secret techniques: the first, ‘Soul Devour,’ was an extremely terrifying offensive method; the second, ‘Clone,’ was a powerful escape technique. After activating the innate secret technique Clone, the resulting clone... naturally possessed far less power than the true body, and the clone couldn't even use innate secret techniques itself. However, a clone would at least comprehend the mysteries of laws; as long as the true body understood law insights, the clone would too! ...After being ambushed once, Luo Feng continued forward, but unexpectedly... the Soul Devouring Beast launched two more consecutive sneak attacks. The second time, the Soul Devouring Beast used a soul attack. With Luo Feng’s terrifying will and the secret technique ‘Beast God Roar,’ he naturally resisted it with ease, without even needing the assistance of the ‘Tower Pearl’. The third time, the Soul Devouring Beast employed an illusion technique, which was also ineffective. Luo Feng’s counter was always the same: using the ‘Star’ from the Star Map to directly smash the Soul Devouring Beast to death! “Master, the Soul Devouring Beast is repeatedly attacking you through its clones, clearly probing your true strength. If it perceives you as not much of a threat, it will likely come with its true body to kill you. If it finds you too strong... it will cautiously avoid you. It is truly cunning,” Extreme Rainbow King said from within the World Ring. “Master hasn’t even unleashed his true power yet, not even using Feimo Venom,” Heart Refining King added. Luo Feng carried these two powerful beings within his World Ring. As for his other powerful slave-servants, they were with his Golden Horn Behemoth clone. Heart Refining King was a master of soul techniques. Extreme Rainbow King, moreover, carried the Purple Bell. The two, combined, could absolutely turn the tide of battle at critical moments. When Luo Feng initially planned to steal the black metal plate, he naturally considered the possibility of being captured, which is why he left two powerful helpers with his Earthling Original Body. After all, while his Earthling Original Body was strong, it couldn't burn divine power, which was the fundamental difference between Luo Feng and other powerful beings. Without burning divine power, Luo Feng could dominate many powerful beings. But once divine power was burned, Luo Feng would be at a disadvantage. “I’ll just wait patiently for it, to see if its true body will appear.” Luo Feng continued to walk through the snow, advancing step by step. He also believed there were other powerful beings in the Ice Prison. “Qingdoukou Venerable’s words before, and Talasha’s words, clearly indicated that this Ice Prison is extremely terrifying. But what exactly makes it so terrifying?”
