Luo Feng's Strength

“Who wants to go first?” Luo Feng gazed at the three powerhouses in the distance. “I’m a bit weaker than the other two. How about I go first? Otherwise, if Chaman King or Lishuo King goes, Daohe King, you might suffer a terrible defeat,” Thousand Rain King teased with a smile. Chaman King and Lishuo King watched, waiting for Luo Feng’s choice. “Bring on the strongest,” Luo Feng stated directly. “Alright.” Chaman King and Lishuo King exchanged glances. Then, Chaman King’s voice, ethereal and echoing across the heavens, declared, “Lishuo King and I are quite similar in strength, so I’ll go first. But Daohe… don’t underestimate us. Though we keep a low profile, among the Beast God lineage within the human race, there are only two or three other titled Kings stronger than us. As for newcomers like Seven Swords King, they are still weaker than us.” “I would never underestimate you,” Luo Feng replied. He knew well that the human race had many old powerhouses. They might have been stuck at the final step for an incredibly long time, but some of them possessed terrifying strength. Most simply maintained a low profile. In contrast, newly risen figures like Seven Swords King and Dream King were famous, but if they couldn't break through within 100 million epochs, they too would likely fade into obscurity, forgotten by later generations. Such was the nature of time. *** In mid-air, Luo Feng and Chaman King faced each other from afar. “First, familiarize yourself with your Divine Body,” Chaman King said. “A word of caution: since this battle will take place in a virtual world, both sides will immediately burn their Divine Bodies from the start, engaging in the most frenzied combat. Don’t think like you would in reality, where you’d be reluctant to burn your Divine Body.” “Understood,” Luo Feng replied, sensing his virtual Divine Body. “Boom~~~” Immense power surged through his entire being. Every cell was composed of incredibly potent and condensed Divine Power. If he willed it, he could instantly transform into boundless Divine Power, and even if his Divine Body shattered, it could instantly recover. This feeling of immense power and absolute control far surpassed what he experienced as a Sector Lord. A Divine Body with 100,000 times the power of a Sector Lord! “Compared to reality, there are both advantages and disadvantages,” Luo Feng mused as he familiarized himself with this Divine Body. “In reality, even with the assistance of a General Soul, my psychic power is only at the initial King-tier level. It’s only through my will, which is stronger than most Universe Venerables, that I can achieve an effect comparable to a pinnacle King-tier. But now, even without a General Soul… this etherealized Divine Power alone is at the pinnacle King-tier, and combined with my will and consciousness, it’s naturally even stronger.” Origin Power and psychic power, during the Sector Lord stage, merged to form World Power. At the Immortal stage, it became Immortal Power. Etherealized Immortal Divine Power… could be used for soul attacks. “In reality, the soul amplification secret technique I obtained from the Demon Sound General’s legacy was limited because my World Power was too weak. Even after amplification, it was nothing compared to that General Soul,” Luo Feng thought to himself. “But now… my etherealized Divine Power can be amplified again.” From the perspective of Divine Power and amplification, Luo Feng had improved significantly. However, there were also weaknesses. He lacked the supreme treasure ‘Star Map,’ whose power could allow Luo Feng to overcome two or even three minor tiers. “Weapon.” Luo Feng flipped his hand, and 600 golden spheres floated before him. These translucent golden spheres were covered in intricate law runes, fully embodying Luo Feng’s strongest ultimate technique. This was a very ordinary psychic weapon Luo Feng had created through the Virtual Universe. After all, in Glory World battles, only ordinary weapons could be used. *** “Are you adapted?” Chaman King asked. “Haha, Chaman King, don’t lose too badly. You’ll need to unleash your strongest power!” Luo Feng instantly roared, every cell in his body igniting, his aura skyrocketing, his strength surging a thousandfold in an instant. “How long have you been cultivating? I’ll show you that us old-timers aren’t to be trifled with. I’ll finish you within three moves.” Two claw-blades, massive claws worn over his fists, suddenly appeared in Chaman King’s hands. “Buzz.” Luo Feng’s 600 golden spheres hovered. “A Psychic Controller?” Chaman King frowned slightly, looking at Luo Feng with confusion. The clan should have informed them before they went to the Land of Inheritance… that Psychic Controllers would be at a great disadvantage on the Beast God path. How was Daohe King still a Psychic Controller? Luo Feng casually tossed them. The burning etherealized Divine Power, channeled through the complex law runes on the 600 golden spheres, instantly activated the origin fusion laws… and a colossal Beast God appeared in the sky. Unleashing this move by burning his Divine Power made this Beast God appear even more real, its scales and tail exuding boundless might. “Hmph.” Chaman King let out a low growl. Boom, his entire body rapidly transformed, scales appearing all over him, his arms thickening, resembling a humanoid Beast God. Behind him, a vast, indistinct phantom of a Beast God also appeared. His eyes were filled with madness. A once elegant human powerhouse instantly became savagely frenzied, transforming into a streak of light and charging directly at Luo Feng. *** Thousand Rain King and Lishuo King watched intently from a distance. “Daohe King is truly formidable! He was only slightly at a disadvantage but quickly adapted to Chaman King’s fighting style,” Thousand Rain King exclaimed with surprise. “They’re actually evenly matched.” “Don’t be so quick,” Lishuo King said softly. “Chaman King believes Daohe has cultivated for too short a time and lacks advanced secret techniques, so he hasn’t used his true strongest ultimate technique yet. Look… isn’t Daohe King at a disadvantage now? Hmph, now that their Divine Bodies are equal, what’s being tested is law comprehension, secret techniques, Divine Power amplification, experience, and so on… Chaman King has already perfected these aspects. His secret technique is also a pinnacle ultimate technique, and his Divine Power amplification was inherited from a Demon Sound General.” Pinnacle ultimate techniques were not uncommon. Universe Venerables could almost all create their own pinnacle ultimate techniques, and those peerless geniuses who hoped to become Universe Venerables naturally held themselves to high standards. Especially those who couldn't break through for a long time placed even greater importance on creating secret techniques. Unless a race was very weak and lacked good teachers, with proper guidance and enough time, many could indeed create pinnacle ultimate techniques. Luo Feng was praised back then simply because he created his ultimate technique in a very short amount of time. “For Daohe King to be nearly equal is already impressive. Chaman King is not… what!” Lishuo King was shocked. “Daohe King, Daohe King—!” Thousand Rain King’s eyes widened. Daohe King had suddenly erupted. Before, they were evenly matched, but then Daohe King’s strength seemed to surge dramatically, instantly suppressing Chaman King. *** In mid-air. “Fall,” Luo Feng’s eyes gleamed with madness, his will instantly reaching its absolute limit. “Rumble~~~” The colossal Beast God’s scaled tail in mid-air was like a steamroller, crushing this space. Rumble, rumble, rumble~~~~ The space trembled. The tail’s whip was incredibly fierce, its power boundless and utterly domineering. At the same time, its speed was terrifyingly fast. Bang! Chaman King, in his humanoid Beast God form, roared, using his claws to resist the striking scaled tail. “Bang~~” He was directly struck with explosive force, and his Divine Body’s consumption immediately intensified. “Surrender!” Luo Feng pressed his advantage relentlessly, attacking furiously, repeatedly overwhelming Chaman King until his Divine Body completely dissipated. Luo Feng won! Luo Feng stood in mid-air, looking at the astonished Thousand Rain King and Lishuo King. In his heart, he was surprised: “I can’t believe I was pushed to this extent. I used my self-created ultimate technique, and compared to them… I even have the advantage of Beast God Intent!” While other inheritors relied on ‘law comprehension’ to activate their ultimate moves, Luo Feng used ‘Beast God Intent’ to drive his secret techniques. In terms of pure comprehension of fusion laws, Luo Feng was at a mid-level triple comprehension, but his Beast God Intent had actually surpassed the perfect triple comprehension, reaching the threshold of the fourth level! After all, Luo Feng’s current Beast God Intent was extremely close to the 21st level of the Sky-Reaching Bridge. Therefore— With Beast God Intent, Luo Feng had a significant advantage! Coupled with his strong psychic amplification, it wasn’t a weakness either. However, at the beginning, when Luo Feng hadn’t fully unleashed his will, he was actually at a slight disadvantage. This made Luo Feng sigh with emotion. But once his will, which was more extraordinary than most Universe Venerables, erupted, the benefits of a powerful will were not as obvious for martial artists, but it was different for Psychic Controllers. Will is the commander, consciousness the general, and psychic power the soldiers. The extreme strength of his will instantly boosted the power of Luo Feng’s psychic weapon by two tiers, transforming him from being at a disadvantage to completely overwhelming Chaman King. “I lost.” Chaman King flew over, looking at Luo Feng in disbelief. “Daohe, how could you…” “I concede too, no need to fight.” Lishuo King shook his head and sighed. “Daohe, your reputation is truly well-deserved. Aside from treasures and such, your personal strength… we are convinced.” Both of them felt quite disheartened. Although they kept a low profile, they were very confident in their strength, ranking in the upper-middle among countless geniuses in the Land of Inheritance. One must know that once a certain level is reached, further improvement becomes incredibly difficult. They had reached a near-perfect state in terms of will, consciousness, secret techniques, and Divine Power amplification. Yet, they still lost, and were decisively defeated. “Only by simultaneously unleashing these two absolute advantages—Beast God Intent and will—could I completely suppress Chaman King,” Luo Feng thought to himself. *** Meanwhile, in the distant core of the Ancestral God Sect, on Purple Thorn Island, the inheritors who had sent challenge letters to Luo Feng, who had been discussing the matter in small groups, soon received their replies. “Daohe King is only a Sector Lord after all. In the virtual world, stripped of all real-world treasures, it’s all about true strength. Hmph, didn’t Zhuchong King have to bow his head back then?” “He probably received tens of thousands of challenge letters. I know of many myself.” “With so many challenge letters, how many would he dare accept?” “Haha…” “Uh—he also accepted my challenge.” “What, he accepted?” “You’re lucky, he probably just picked a few of the weakest ones, haha. Ah—he accepted my challenge too.” “I also received a reply, he accepted the challenge.” In the Glory World, in the open-air plaza, large numbers of alien powerhouses were checking their Black Books. Every single one of them had received a reply. Challenge accepted! “He accepted the challenge.” “Accepted.” “Daohe King accepted the challenge.” Voices echoed from all corners of the open-air plaza, astonishing the inheritors from billions of cosmic races: “How many challenges did this Daohe King actually accept? It must be in the tens of thousands.”
