Thirty-four of Luo Feng’s avatars were stationed at each core area of Yulan City.
After obliterating one leader squad and suppressing a second, the remaining three leader squads were filled with terror and started fleeing frantically without hesitation.
“How is Luo Feng so powerful?”
“Why can’t an entire leader squad even put up a fight against him?”
These leader squads couldn’t accept it. The city had been broken, and they were about to enjoy a feast, only to be met with such disaster suddenly.
“Help!”
“King, help!”
The suppressed second leader squad cried out anxiously for help as one by one they perished. This further heightened the panic among the fleeing leaders.
Throughout the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, about half of the leader-level powerhouses of the Enchanting Heart Worm tribe and the Soul-devouring Snake tribe had come to Yulan City, but now they were facing their doom!
“Huff.” “Huff.” “Huff.”
One black-clad Luo Feng after another perfected their flying escape technique, the initial massive rift-tearing commotion getting quieter. A blurred rift in the world appeared, and Luo Feng stepped out, crossing great distances.
When Luo Feng transformed into a blood sea, trapping the third leader squad, the remaining fleeing leaders became even more despairing.
“Scatter!”
“Disperse and hide, possess someone!”
The remaining leaders quickly scattered, attempting to possess cultivators.
“Scatter?”
Luo Feng’s numerous avatars, initially cloned with ‘hundred times energy reserve,’ split again into avatars with ‘fifty times energy reserve,’ drastically increasing their numbers.
With the leaders dispersed, their individual resistance was much weaker than an entire squad.
A ‘biomimetic destruction eye’ appeared between Luo Feng’s brows, locking onto the true body of each leader!
“Huff.”
As each Luo Feng avatar walked through the rift, transforming into blood light and sweeping past a leader, they’d kill them in an instant.
Individually, the leaders couldn’t withstand even a single move from him.
“Luo Feng!”
The ‘King’ in Master Wei Yang’s guise was indeed furious. It charged towards the nearest Luo Feng avatar. Luo Feng, standing in the high sky, watched the King without flinching, his expression cold.
“I didn’t think there’d be such a strong person in Yulan City! It’s a good thing Palace Master Yuan Xiang hadn’t fully employed you. If he had, breaking Yulan City would’ve been impossible,” the King’s voice echoed in Luo Feng’s mind.
Luo Feng looked at the ‘King’ in Master Wei Yang’s guise.
Employed?
He was already the city lord of Yulan City, having just made a breakthrough. Luckily, the breakthrough happened in time; if he’d been slower, Yulan City might have been completely destroyed.
“Boom.” As the King approached, its innate secret technique ‘Enchanting’ was already enacted.
In an instant, it completely shrouded Luo Feng’s mental consciousness.
This ordinary avatar of Luo Feng did not possess the ‘Undying Heart’ or ‘Palm World’; he felt a massive influx of information flooding his mind, thoroughly disturbing his awareness.
“Who am I?”
“Am I an Enchanting Heart Worm? No… I am, of course, Luo Feng!”
Luo Feng’s eyes cleared.
The ‘Dao’ of the Ultimate Realm of God King had begun to counteract will attacks. The ‘Dao’ of the Divine Emperor realm, as it became stronger, increasingly obstructed will attacks. This was why weapon secret treasures crafted by Divine Emperors could hinder will attacks.
Luo Feng’s ‘Life and Death Dao’ at the late Divine Emperor stage had reached an incredibly high level. Under its immense obstruction, even the mental will attack of a transcendent-level Enchanting Heart Worm was weakened by seventy to eighty percent in a moment.
Furthermore, with the Lie Yuan Technique guarding him and the power of Yulan City protecting him!
Every ounce of willpower was suppressed; mental confusion abilities were greatly reduced. Luo Feng only received a large amount of information transmitted by ‘Innate Confusion’!
He was fully awake, easily filtering through the information, as though reading a book.
“Suppress.” As Luo Feng maintained clarity, this avatar transformed into a blood sea, creating a formation to trap the transcendent-level Enchanting Heart Worm.
“My mental attack is completely ineffective against him? His realm indeed rivals mine!” The King immediately understood.
Divine Emperor Perfection-level low-level primordial beings and half-primordial-level Dao Enlighteners were at the same level.
One side had more resilient life forms, while the other fully understood the essence of the ‘Dao.’ Without weapon secret treasures, their strengths were similar. However, with weapon secret treasures crafted by ‘cage-transcendent beings,’ Dao Enlighteners naturally had higher combat power. Both Master Wei Yang and Master Gai Tao could defeat Divine Emperor Perfection-level low-level primordial beings one on one.
Transcendent-level low-level primordial beings at the same level as those mastering two half-primordial-level Daos.
“Luo Feng’s realm is no less than ours!”
The King immediately sent a mental message to the other four transcendent-level comrades, “He should have mastered two half-primordial-level Daos!”
“Hmm?”
The four transcendent-level beings, already in Yulan City and quickly heading toward the core area, felt a shock.
“We have five transcendent-level beings and over two thousand Divine Emperor Perfection-level warriors! Attacking together, we could completely annihilate him,” the King sent.
One transcendent-level being was comparable to more than twenty Divine Emperor Perfection-level experts.
When over two thousand Divine Emperor Perfection-level experts joined forces, the resulting might could destroy the world!
“Luckily, we breached the city; otherwise, we couldn’t surround him,” the King communicated.
“Shadow, I will first join forces with you to entangle him!” A blue-white figure, the fastest flyer, appeared blurry and was already the closest among the four transcendent-level beings to the core area.
…
After the King’s mental attack failed, its massive Enchanting Heart Worm body swung and instantly tore apart Luo Feng’s blood sea formation, quickly escaping.
Luo Feng’s avatar coldly watched.
“Without secret treasures and with only an ordinary avatar, I am still somewhat weaker than a transcendent-level being,” Luo Feng realized.
That was also why his most powerful secret techniques ‘Undying Blood Sea Body’ and ‘Biomimetic Destruction Eye’ were not yet perfected; ordinary secret techniques lacked deterrent power against transcendent-level beings.
Huff! Huff! Huff!
While Luo Feng clashed with the King, his other avatars had already wiped out the other leaders. After annihilating them, Luo Feng reverted to thirty-four avatars.
Thirty-four avatars continued to guard the core area.
…
“How, how is this possible?”
The elders of Yulan City, who controlled the formations carved into the city, sensing the entire city through them, naturally saw clearly what had just taken place in the core area!
Luo Feng, single-handedly, split into thirty-four avatars and completely exterminated all the leader-level lurkers! Even that ‘King’ couldn’t gain any advantage in its confrontation with one of Luo Feng’s avatars and had to retreat empty-handed.
“Single-handedly exterminated thirty Divine Emperor Perfection-level low-level primordial beings?”
“Even a transcendent-level Enchanting Heart Worm couldn’t do anything against one avatar?”
“Luo Feng Divine Emperor, he…”
Anyone with eyes could see that Luo Feng’s strength had far surpassed the Palace Master level, reaching an even higher tier.
“Luo Feng has mastered two half-primordial-level Daos?”
The elders speculated.
Even in the Dark Sacred Realm, those who mastered two half-primordial-level Daos were at the pinnacle! As for stronger invincible beings? In the Dark Sacred Realm, they were mere legends, rarely seen.
“Luo Feng actually possesses such power?” The Insect Nest Master trembled, “Any Palace Master-level being would probably die in just one or two moves against him now.”
“He and I have enmity. Even if Yulan City is defended, there will be no place for me there anymore,” the Insect Nest Master realized.
In the world of cultivators, strength was paramount.
Even if Luo Feng wasn’t the city lord, his strength to overturn Palace Master-level beings would make him the uncrowned king of Yulan City! If he wanted to expel the Insect Nest, it would have no place to live in Yulan City.
“I’ll help defend the city for now and leave once it’s safe. His hostility should lessen,” the Insect Nest Master decided.
“Luo Feng’s strength?” The Master of Shadow Tower, Master of Deceit Workshop, Elder Tian He, Building Master Changqing, and Elder Xingyi were all in shock, each lost in thought.
This level of power made someone the uncrowned king in any city within the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, and in the Dark Sacred Realm, it placed them at the peak.
“We are saved.”
“Yulan City is saved.” Many elders were excited, seeing hope.
“Palace Master, Palace Master! We must have Luo Feng Divine Emperor imprint formations in the core area of Yulan City. With his power and the city’s formations, we might completely drive off the low-level primordial army.”
“Yes, Palace Master, Luo Feng Divine Emperor must imprint the formations as soon as possible,” the Master of Shadow Tower also transmitted instantly, “The sooner the better; only Luo Feng Divine Emperor can save Yulan City.”
“Palace Master…” The Insect Nest Master and others transmitted urgently.
“Everyone, rest assured, I have already given the City Building Seal to Luo Feng Divine Emperor. From now on, Luo Feng Divine Emperor is the lord of Yulan City!” Palace Master Yuan Xiang transmitted, “Luo Feng, please respond to everyone.”
“Everyone.” As the city lord, Luo Feng instantly transmitted to all elders, “I have refined the City Building Seal and am now the city lord of Yulan City.”
“City Lord.”
“Lord Luo.”
“With Lord Luo here, Yulan City is saved.”
“The billions of cultivators are saved.” The elders were all elated.
Luo Feng transmitted, “Everyone, the low-level primordial army won’t wait. They’ll attack me at all costs! So, I ask all of you to use Yulan City’s formations to deal with them.”
“Understood.”
“We understand.”
“City Lord, leave it to us.” The elders had seen the hope of victory.
…
The vast low-level primordial army surged towards the core area from all sides. Luo Feng’s Biomimetic Destruction Eye observed closely. The most terrifying force was the five transcendent-level beings and over 2600 Divine Emperor Perfection-level entities!
“Kill Luo Feng.”
“Destroy each of his avatars.”
“Exhaust his energy, and he won’t be able to save Yulan City.”
At this moment, the five transcendent-level beings, over 2600 Divine Emperor Perfection-level entities, and tens of thousands of late-stage Divine Emperor-level low-level primordial beings were all in a frenzy. Breaking into a city was their best chance to gain freedom in this lifetime!
They had been confined in the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm and yearned for the moment of their freedom.
Luo Feng was the hope of survival for Yulan City’s billions of cultivators, but at the same time—
Luo Feng was the greatest obstacle to the low-level primordial army’s freedom!
Both sides would stop at nothing!
