Chapter 924
Ultimate Technique
The endless slaughter within the Ice Prison over countless years left lower-tier beings like those of the Cangjiang Race and Katu Race without hope, some even contemplating death. However, creatures like the Soul-Devouring Beast were unlikely to seek death. As for the Ten Great Kings, who roamed the Ice Prison with arrogant madness, each was brimming with ambition!
Their strength might be slightly inferior to the five great overlords, but they still harbored hope of catching up, and naturally, a sliver of hope for escape.
They fought! They fought with frenzied intensity, absorbing experience and improving themselves.
“Human, you didn't flee when you encountered me. Excellent.” White Bone King's murderous aura permeated the air as he stared at Luo Feng.
“The Ten Great Kings, your renown spreads far and wide. Indeed, other powerhouses in the Ice Prison would flee at first sight of you. But as for me, if you don't defeat me, how could I possibly run?” Luo Feng hovered in mid-air. “Haha, once you defeat me, I'll naturally flee at lightning speed.”
“By then, you won't have a chance to escape,” White Bone King's voice rumbled from his chest cavity. The moment his words fell, the surrounding space instantly solidified, locking it down. Neither party could teleport away.
Boom! White Bone King vanished from his spot, his speed transforming him into a blurry streak of light, directly attacking Luo Feng in mid-air.
“Whoosh!” Luo Feng's wings flapped, tracing a winding trajectory in the air. Simultaneously, eight black orbs floated from his left palm. With a flick of his wrist, the law secret patterns etched on the eight black orbs were activated, and countless golden threads intertwined. In an instant, a Beast God radiating boundless dominance appeared between heaven and earth.
White Bone King's claw struck empty air. He then turned to look at Luo Feng and the Beast God in the distance, chuckling deeply, “Such incredible speed. A Controller, no less. Very good.”
“Roar!” The Beast God roared, tearing through the air as it flew forward.
“Hahahaha…” White Bone King laughed wildly, charging directly towards the Beast God.
Bang!!! A dazzling, blurry whip shadow and White Bone King's claw collided head-on, generating a powerful shockwave that instantly ripped through the surrounding snow and the surface of the icy sea. White Bone King was sent flying backward by the recoil, while the Beast God also paused, its entire form blurring before solidifying once more.
The surrounding snow quickly recovered. White Bone King stood on the distant snow, looking up at Luo Feng: “Human, I now admit, you are worthy of seeing my true combat form.” His voice, like thunder, echoed across the heavens and earth. Simultaneously, a terrifying aura erupted from White Bone King's entire body.
The grotesque bone spurs covering his body began to retract into him, and his divine body gradually grew taller, its color also shifting from its previous fiery red to a pure white. The moment the transformation ceased, White Bone King became entirely silvery-white, like platinum, with layers of twisted bone forming a 'carapace' over his body, exuding a powerful aura.
“White Bone King, is this your combat form? Excellent.” Luo Feng's eyes, from his position high in the sky, were terrifyingly sharp. “Take this!”
The limit of willpower eruption! Powerful will guided his consciousness, controlling his mental force. The Beast God in mid-air became even clearer, then roared and charged directly at White Bone King below. White Bone King, however, stood confidently in place. When the Beast God's tail whipped out like lightning, White Bone King suddenly swung his right claw.
Rip— The right claw tore and twisted space, but the Beast God's tail retracted its strike, only to lash out again with fierce force.
“Cunning fellow.” White Bone King roared, suddenly lunging forward, his claws instantly transforming into phantoms. The claw gauntlets on his sharp claws… were the only heavy treasure White Bone King possessed. If one were to compare powerhouses in the Ice Prison with those from the outside, the primary difference would be the significantly fewer heavy treasures of equivalent power.
For instance, White Bone King, if he were outside, would typically possess several heavy treasures, but in the Ice Prison, he had only one.
Yet, due to the life-and-death struggles and endless pressure within the Ice Prison, White Bone King had frantically studied these heavy treasure claw gauntlets… long ago pushing their power to an extremely high level. Although it was only one heavy treasure, the power it unleashed was in no way inferior to that of outside powerhouses like Xuanmu King, who possessed several heavy treasures.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
White Bone King directly met the Beast God, his claws transforming into countless phantoms, impossibly fast, tearing and attacking repeatedly…
“Bang!” The Beast God's tail was finally torn apart, collapsing directly, and all eight black orbs were sent flying by that single claw strike.
“How overbearing.” Luo Feng, high in the sky, watched White Bone King's rampant charge in his combat form, using his frenzied claw attacks to directly shatter the Beast God. He couldn't help but be shocked. White Bone King's combat power was absolutely on par with Black Razor King, and this demonic combat stance was even more terrifying.
Whoosh!
As White Bone King shattered the Beast God, he charged directly at Luo Feng: “Human, prepare to die!”
Whoosh! Luo Feng's wings flapped, and another winding trajectory appeared in mid-air as Luo Feng quickly fled into the distance.
“White Bone King, your strength is formidable, I admire it. I am not your match right now, so I'll be leaving. Until next time… we shall fight again.” His voice echoed in the air, but Luo Feng had already escaped far away.
White Bone King stopped in mid-air, watching Luo Feng's impossibly fast speed, and roared in anger, his roar shaking heaven and earth. He then ceased his roaring, gazing at Luo Feng's receding figure: “This human has an incredibly explosive instantaneous speed. Even among the five great overlords, none escape this quickly… It seems another super expert has emerged in my Ice Prison.”
Although White Bone King's battle with Luo Feng was brief, he instantly assessed Luo Feng's combat power… slightly stronger than an ordinary King, but his instantaneous movement speed was arguably 'number one in the Ice Prison.' Such a human posed a threat no less than that of their Ten Great Kings.
“Haha, this is interesting.”
“The Ice Prison has become even more interesting.” White Bone King was not angry but delighted. In his long life in the Ice Prison, he disliked its monotonous boredom. Occasionally, the appearance of special powerhouses made the Ice Prison truly interesting.
…
After Luo Feng escaped the space lock, he burrowed deep into the snow. Then, Extreme Rainbow King appeared, directly using teleportation to take Luo Feng… to a deep snowy area in the eastern Ice Prison.
He easily constructed an underground dwelling deep within the snow.
“I still underestimated the powerhouses of the Ice Prison.” Luo Feng sat on a chair, sipping fine wine, recalling the battle. “I thought… when these powerhouses in the Ice Prison were imprisoned, most of them weren't too strong. Many of them grew slowly over endless years. I thought they didn't have powerful heavy treasures, or if they did, only the strongest few would have one or two.”
“But I was wrong.”
“If one heavy treasure is utilized well, it's no worse than possessing ten heavy treasures,” Luo Feng mused.
Even if a powerhouse had ten or eight heavy treasures for combat, during battle, they would have to go all out… naturally, they could only fully utilize one offensive heavy treasure.
“Moreover, Ice Prison powerhouses are different from those outside. The pressure in the Ice Prison is greater, squeezing them more intensely. They are constantly striving to improve themselves. If they obtain a heavy treasure, they will definitely study it thoroughly, pushing its power to the absolute limit of what they can achieve,” Luo Feng thought. “Although outside powerhouses also study heavy treasures after obtaining them, they don't have this kind of pressure, so they wouldn't study them with such frenzy.”
“White Bone King.”
“In terms of divine body foundation, I feel he's only at the level of an ordinary peak King. But he has a heavy treasure, and his claw technique is perfectly suited for it, executed with extreme finesse. His claw technique, movement technique… they complement each other perfectly, almost flawlessly.” Luo Feng believed this must be White Bone King's self-created ultimate technique, because learning another powerhouse's ultimate technique would be difficult to achieve such perfection.
Luo Feng pondered for a long time, then silently nodded.
Ice Prison powerhouses focus more on themselves, able to unleash greater power from heavy treasures.
Outside powerhouses have more treasures and more methods.
This is the difference between the two.
“I was wrong.”
“Ever since I comprehended the first form of 'Mingyue Ce,' I haven't rushed to study ultimate techniques since leaving Chaos City,” Luo Feng sighed. “But seeing White Bone King today made me realize the importance of one's own strength. And an ultimate technique must also be paired with an offensive heavy treasure. My supreme treasure, the 'Star Chart,' is incredibly powerful. I should quickly create an ultimate technique that complements the Star Chart.”
'Mingyue Ce' is a blade technique, a combat method for the Shi Wu Wings… after all, Luo Feng's strongest combat power, the Golden Horned Beast, follows a close-quarters combat style, and the Shi Wu Wings shouldn't be wasted. Therefore, the creation of 'Mingyue Ce' cannot be neglected.
But Luo Feng also needed another ultimate technique, a combat ultimate technique for a mental-force controller.
“Let's begin.”
“Heavy treasures, supreme treasures, genes, amplification secret techniques, ultimate techniques… there are external and internal aspects.” Luo Feng murmured, “My external strength is already sufficient and cannot be improved temporarily. In the Ice Prison, I will strengthen my internal aspects, enhancing my ability to unleash my power. With an ultimate technique that complements the Star Chart, the Star Chart can unleash even more heaven-defying combat power.”
The Star Chart (Star Chart of the Dao), was the most suitable combat supreme treasure in Luo Feng's possession!
Although the Tower Bead, Star Chart, and Shi Wu Wings were all supreme treasures, barely crossing the threshold of supreme treasures, their functions were different. The Shi Wu Wings focused more on escape, the Tower Bead more on guarding the soul, and the Star Chart more on offense! For the Shi Wu Wings, primarily used for escape, Luo Feng's combat power amplification wouldn't be significant.
But for the 'Star Chart,' which was inherently designed for offense, its power was formidable. If utilized well… it would be even more terrifying.
After all, even among the invincible Kings in the universe, how many possessed offensive supreme treasures?
…
Luo Feng began his secluded cultivation deep in the snow, his consciousness connected to the virtual universe. In the virtual universe, he repeatedly experimented with his combat secret techniques. He didn't need to simulate the 'Star Chart'; he only needed to repeatedly create mental-force weapon control secret techniques, forming something similar to a mental-force weapon.
“He's actually focusing on mental-force weapons now,” Chaos City Lord muttered to himself, puzzled, as he provided opponents for Luo Feng to fight.
Previously, Luo Feng used a battle blade; now he had switched to mental-force weapons.
But Chaos City Lord didn't rush to criticize Luo Feng, because he knew very well… without letting Luo Feng stumble and suffer losses, lecturing him wouldn't be very effective. However, Chaos City Lord also didn't know… that Luo Feng's Earthling true body was indeed most suited for the mental-force master path, and this would be even more true when he eventually became an Undying God.
