A vast painting covered an endless expanse, and in a split second, the five figures all merged into the painting, vanishing from sight. Meanwhile, black rain poured down, with white mist forming anew. These white mists caused the temperature to plummet drastically, to an inconceivable degree.
“How ridiculous!” Luo Feng sneered. His body flickered and instantly became towering and massive, clad in a layer of thick blood-colored scale armor. Layers of blood-colored scales covered every part of him, and beneath Luo Feng’s feet, the boundless and endless Blood Sea spread out.
Inside Luo Feng’s body was a Secret Treasure Array Map.
This was one of the two main Secret Treasures Luo Feng relied on in battle now—the ‘Life and Death Tribulation Map’. It was purchased before this hunt with 300,000 Primordial Crystals borrowed from Emperor Qing, along with the few Luo Feng had remaining. This Array Map contained the profound mysteries of life and destruction at the later stages of a Divine Emperor.
The purchase of this Array Map was to augment his Physical Body, the ‘Undying Blood Sea Body’.
“Rumble~~~~”
The Array Map operated.
The boundless and raging Blood Sea became even more wanton and ferocious!
Assisted by the Array Map, it swept across hundreds of millions of kilometers in an instant, turning the entire area enveloped by the vast painting into a blood-red world.
This blood-red world had an endless Blood Wave below and an endless blood mist above.
It was precisely the ‘Life and Death Tribulation Map’, combined with Luo Feng’s Undying Blood Sea Body, that allowed him to derive a large-scale Domain technique—the Blood Sea Heaven and Earth!
Once the Blood Sea Heaven and Earth was formed, the vast surrounding area became a part of his own body. Luo Feng’s Blood Sea, teeming with endless vitality, effortlessly shattered the painting, rain, and white mist—the three kinds of Domain forces.
The immense painting collapsed under absolute power.
The black rain, containing terrifying poison and permeability, still could not match Luo Feng’s stronger life force and recovery ability. It was exhausted in a fierce battle, where the Blood Sea depleted a part, and the black rain had to deplete ten times more. Hissing sounds erupted as the black rain quickly dispersed.
The white mist contained extreme cold, but it could not freeze the Blood Sea.
“Rumble——”
The Blood Sea surged wildly, scattering the black rain, covering the white mist, and tearing the great painting to shreds.
“Not good!”
“We’ve provoked a formidable opponent.”
As the huge painting was torn apart in an instant, the five figures were forced to emerge, showing their shock at having kicked an iron plate!
These Domain techniques were executed in concert by three of them. Yet now, they were suppressed by Luo Feng alone! The gap in their Domain abilities indicated that this Luo Feng was not to be trifled with.
“Being skilled in Domain doesn’t mean they are also strong in other aspects.”
“Since we’ve already clashed, there’s no turning back.”
“Take them down.”
These five, after all, were also at the middle stage of Divine Emperor and considered The Enlightened, naturally very confident in themselves.
“Let’s eliminate the weakest one first.” A figure in a white robe looked at Emperor Qing, and in an instant, boundless radiance appeared that touched Emperor Qing as it shone.
“You think I’m easy to deal with?”
Emperor Qing instantly turned into a Sword Array. Knowing his limits, he minimized the range of the Sword Array, going all out just to deal with this white-robed figure.
“Your opponent is me!” Luo Feng’s towering figure bellowed, the infinite Blood Wave surging in all directions and sweeping toward those five formidable enemies.
“If you’re seeking death, I shall grant it to you.” A cold-hearted man stared at Luo Feng, his body turning into black mud.
This black mud disappeared in the same spot but appeared on the surface of Luo Feng’s body.
On Luo Feng’s towering body, strands of black mud began to penetrate through the blood-colored scale armor on his skin.
“This power?”
Luo Feng felt the extreme poison and permeability of this black mud. It was an evolved version of the previous black rain, far more terrifying! However, Luo Feng’s physical body was crafted after ‘Blood-colored Scale and the Undying Heart’ found within the Star Tower.
The greatest feature of his body was its immortality!
“How is his body so difficult to penetrate?” The cold-hearted man found it incredibly challenging; as he eroded, he himself was constantly depleting.
“We still need to kill him face-to-face.”
Endless white mist coalesced in mid-air, turning into the same towering ice giant creature.
This ice creature, similar in height to Luo Feng, had two heads and eight arms—all made of ice, sparkling and crystal-clear under the light, and stunningly beautiful. It instantly rushed in front of Luo Feng, all eight arms attacking simultaneously.
“Break.”
Luo Feng clenched his fists, wearing Secret Treasure Gloves on both hands, unleashing their power all at once.
Boom—
Luo Feng did not care about the direction of the eight-armed assault; he just hammered his fists straight ahead. The area where his fists struck trembled under the overwhelming pressure, shattering four of the arms trying to block and finally impacting the chest of the ice creature, blasting a huge hole in its chest. The ice creature was hurled back from the terrifying impact.
“His close-quarters combat is so fierce too?” This scene took the five powerhouses from the Deceit Workshop by surprise.
Each Cultivator has their strengths, and being skilled in Domain doesn’t mean they are also powerful in other aspects.
Yet Luo Feng’s large-scale Domain and close-quarters combat abilities were both extremely strong among middle-stage Divine Emperor The Enlightened.
“Unite against him.”
“Surround and kill him!”
Black mud persistently permeated the surface of Luo Feng’s towering body.
The ice creature’s chest wound healed rapidly, returning to normal as the ice swiftly mended. Stepping forward, it charged at Luo Feng, fierce and heedless of life.
More blue ribbons flew in, enveloping the vast Void, binding Luo Feng from all directions, leaving him no way to dodge.
A massive blood serpent suddenly appeared, instantly coiling around Luo Feng’s right leg and waist with such force that even Luo Feng felt a twinge of pain.
“Hmm?”
Luo Feng struggled at this moment, but the blue ribbons were too tenacious, likely formidable Secret Treasures invincible to him.
Crack, crack, crack, crack~~~
As the giant serpent constricted, cracks appeared on the blood-colored scales on Luo Feng’s body, but they healed instantly.
Surrounded by four attackers, Luo Feng’s body was still able to withstand the onslaught.
“He sure is tough, his body barely took any damage.”
“But he can’t fight back. Imprison and suppress him, then slowly kill him.”
The four strong ones from Deceit Workshop communicated with each other through instant transmission of thoughts.
Watching this scene from a distance, Emperor Qing, who was battling another formidable enemy, became somewhat worried: “One against four is still too difficult. The combined strength of the four from Deceit Workshop is too tricky to handle.”
Although worried, Emperor Qing was not panicked.
They were the strong ones from the Source World, even if they died in battle today, they still had their Avatars!
“Hahaha…”
Bound and unable to resist, Luo Feng burst into laughter.
“Do you think this is my real Physical Body?” Luo Feng looked at them and laughed heartily, “The Physical Body Method I created, I named it ‘Undying Blood Sea Body’. Have you thought about… why I named it that?”
The five strong ones from the Deceit Workshop immediately sensed something was wrong upon hearing these words.
“Because the Blood Sea is my true body!” Luo Feng laughed heartily as his towering figure instantly disintegrated, turning into Blood Waves that merged into the endlessly bright and boundless Blood Sea.
Yes.
The Undying Blood Sea Body, where the endless Blood Sea holds eighty percent of the Energy Reserve, and that condensed Physical Body is just twenty percent of the Energy Reserve.
Moreover, the body can transform between the ‘Blood Sea’ and ‘Physical Body’ at any time. This is true immortality!
“Uh?” The four strong ones from Deceit Workshop attacking him were somewhat dumbfounded; the towering figure they had been fighting dissolved into the Blood Sea, blending into the boundless expanse.
How were they to fight now?
“Rumble—”
The Blood Sea turned heaven and earth upside down!
In an instant, it covered the entire world!
“The first tribulation of the ‘Life and Death Tribulation Map’ Secret Treasure Array Map — Life and Death Prison!” At the core of the vast and endless Blood Sea was the “Blood Sea Eye,” which, now in conjunction with the Secret Treasure Array Map, naturally formed a space prison inside the Blood Sea Eye. This prison now enshrouded only a clump of massive black mud.
The black mud transformed into a cold and gloomy man.
“What is this?” The man looked around.
This was a space prison formed within the Blood Sea Eye, completely isolated from the outside world.
With the Power of Life and Death circulating endlessly, it constantly whittled away at the enemy.
“It’s better to break one of his fingers than to hurt his ten fingers.” Luo Feng’s figure materialized in the prison, “Let’s start by killing you first.”
Luo Feng was well aware that the Life and Death Prison he deployed with his Undying Blood Sea Body and the Array Map could only dare to imprison one enemy. Imprisoning too many enemies would be risky, as they might be able to break out of the prison.
Just imprison one! Luo Feng was much more confident.
“Do you think you can kill me?” The cold man said while observing his surroundings.
Under the operation of the Formation, chains formed by the condensed Power of Life and Death appeared out of nowhere, naturally binding the cold man who couldn’t resist at all.
“With his strength above mine, I shouldn’t harbor any hope of luck.” The cold man sensed danger and immediately used his life-saving treasures.
Buzz—
The cold man turned ethereal in an instant, breaking free from the binding chains, and collided against the space prison. Though the prison desperately tried to stop him, he pierced through it instantly. He then collided against the layers of the Blood Sea Eye.
The Blood Sea Eye was the core of the Undying Blood Sea Body, akin to an inner world. Luo Feng’s Heaven and Earth Avatar had merged with it, reinforcing the Blood Sea Eye.
“Thump.”
The ethereal cold man collided against the membrane of the Blood Sea Eye, breaking through three layers before losing momentum.
This Secret Treasure excelled at Flying Escape! When it came to piercing through spatial membranes, it was somewhat lacking, and after consecutively breaking through the space prison and three layers of the Blood Sea Eye’s membrane, he could no longer escape.
“What?” The cold man regretted at that moment.
He regretted not having bought more life-saving treasures!
He thought traveling with four comrades was safe enough, and one life-saving treasure would suffice.
“It seems you didn’t escape!” Luo Feng’s figure, which rematerialized quickly, looked at him with a smirk, “Looks like today, you’re really going to die.”
“Spare my life, please spare me,” pleaded the cold man, bound again by the chains that formed out of nowhere, his body eroding under the Power of Life and Death, panicked, “If you let me go, all the treasures on me are yours.”
“What a joke, if you die, won’t the treasures become mine?” Luo Feng looked at him.
“I have many friends in the Deceit Workshop. If you kill me, you’ll incur many great enmities,” the cold man continued.
“Do you mean, only you can kill me, but I cannot kill you?” While Luo Feng spoke, the Life and Death Prison continued to squeeze and erode away at his Physical Body unabated.
The cold man’s body was losing energy more and more.
“No, no—” In desperation, the cold man attempted to contact his four comrades.
…
The other four strong ones from the Deceit Workshop were somewhat stunned; one of their comrades had been imprisoned in the boundless Blood Sea?
“This Blood Sea is his body; he must have an ‘Inner Space’, skilled at imprisoning enemies.” These four strong ones could not find the Blood Sea Eye in the vast Blood Sea.
“Save me, save me. Even my life-saving treasure couldn’t help me escape.”
“Quick, save me.”
Their comrade was pleading for help.
The four strong ones were shocked.
“Luo Feng, you haven’t been in Yulan City for long. If you kill ‘Kumo’, his master and friends will definitely come after you,” the icy creature spoke.
“If you kill him, for the sake of our Deceit Workshop’s reputation, we will not let you go,” said the great serpent coldly.
“Hahaha…”
The endless Blood Sea laughed, “I, a strong one from the Source World, afraid of making enemies? If you want to kill, just try! I would like to see, in the end, who will be afraid of whom!”
