Chapter 288: Book Seven: The Indestructible Blood Sea Body

A massive painting engulfed an infinite expanse; the five figures instantly merged into the painting and vanished. Black rain poured down, while white mist arose, causing temperatures to plummet to an unimaginable degree.

“Pathetic!” Luo Feng sneered, his body shifting instantly into a towering, colossal form, his skin covered in thick layers of crimson scales, each overlapping the next to blanket every inch of his body; beneath his feet, an endless, boundless sea of blood spread out.

Within Luo Feng’s body lay a secret treasure array diagram.

This was one of the two secret treasures Luo Feng now relied upon in battle—the “Diagram of Birth and Destruction”—a diagram he and Di Qing had purchased before the hunt, spending 300,000 Hunyuan Crystals plus his remaining credits, containing the profound mysteries of life and destruction at the peak of a Divine Emperor’s cultivation.

He bought this diagram specifically to complement his own fleshly cultivation—the “Indestructible Blood Sea Body.”

“Boom—”

The diagram activated.

The boundless, surging blood sea grew even wilder and more ferocious.

With the diagram’s aid, it instantly swept across hundreds of millions of kilometers, turning the entire area covered by the giant painting into a crimson world.

Beneath this crimson world lay endless waves of blood; above it, boundless clouds of blood mist.

This was the vast-range domain technique Luo Feng had devised—“Blood Sea Heaven and Earth”—by combining the “Diagram of Birth and Destruction” with his Indestructible Blood Sea Body.

Once the Blood Sea Heaven and Earth formed, the vast surrounding area became part of his own body; Luo Feng’s blood sea, brimming with boundless vitality, crushed the painting, the black rain, and the white mist like dry grass before a wildfire.

The giant painting collapsed under absolute force.

The black rain carried terrible toxicity and penetrating power, but Luo Feng’s body possessed even greater vitality and recovery; he simply wore it down—each unit of blood sea consumed required ten units of black rain to neutralize. Hiss-hiss-hiss—the black rain rapidly dissipated.

The white mist carried extreme cold, yet it could not freeze the blood sea.

“Boom—”

The blood sea surged wildly, sweeping away the black rain, drowning the white mist, and tearing the giant painting into tatters.

“Bad!”

“We’ve angered a powerful opponent.”

The instant the giant painting shattered, the five figures were forced to materialize, their faces filled with shock—they realized they’d kicked a ironclad.

These domain techniques were the combined efforts of three among them; yet now, Luo Feng had suppressed them all alone! Such a gap in domain mastery meant Luo Feng was no one to be trifled with.

“Being skilled in domains doesn’t mean he’s strong in other areas.”

“We’ve already struck—there’s no retreat.”

“Kill them.”

These five were all mid-stage Divine Emperor Dao-seekers, naturally confident in their own strength.

“First, eliminate the weak one.” A white-robed figure fixed his gaze on Di Qing; instantly, boundless light erupted, illuminating the space and reaching Di Qing.

“You think I’m easy to handle?”

Di Qing instantly transformed into a sword array; he knew his limits—shrinking the array’s range, he devoted all his strength to countering only this white-robed figure.

“Your opponent is me!” Luo Feng’s towering form roared; boundless waves of blood surged in all directions, sweeping toward the five enemies.

“If you seek death, I’ll grant it.” The cold man stared at Luo Feng, his body dissolving into black sludge.

This black sludge didn’t vanish from its original spot—it appeared directly on Luo Feng’s body surface.

On Luo Feng’s towering form, fine threads of black sludge seeped through his crimson scales.

“This power?”

Luo Feng sensed the black sludge’s toxicity and penetration were an evolved version of the black rain—far more terrifying. But his body was forged by studying the crimson scales and Indestructible Heart within the Star Tower.

His body’s greatest trait was its indestructibility.

“How is his flesh so hard to penetrate?” The cold man struggled desperately; as he eroded, he himself was being drained.

“We still need to kill him directly.”

Boundless white mist coalesced in the air, forming a colossal ice creature of equal height to Luo Feng—two heads, eight arms, entirely forged from ice, translucent and exquisite under the light.

It instantly lunged toward Luo Feng, all eight arms attacking at once.

“Break.”

Luo Feng clenched his fists, his hands clad in secret treasure gloves, their power exploding simultaneously.

BOOM—

Luo Feng ignored the direction of the eight arms; he simply drove both fists forward. The space ahead was crushed into trembling ruin, forcibly shattering four of the arms before his fists slammed into the ice creature’s chest, blasting a gaping hole. The ice creature was flung backward by the force.

“He’s this brutal in close combat?” The scene stunned the five Ghost Workshop elites.

Each cultivator has strengths; mastery in domains doesn’t imply strength elsewhere.

Yet Luo Feng’s vast-range domain and close combat were both among the strongest among mid-stage Divine Emperor Dao-seekers.

“Combine forces against him.”

“Surround and kill him!”

The black sludge continuously seeped into Luo Feng’s towering form.

The ice creature’s chest wound sealed instantly with ice; it stepped forward again, ferocious and fearless.

Blue ribbons flew in, stretching across vast space, binding Luo Feng from all sides—he had nowhere to evade.

A massive blood serpent suddenly appeared, its supple body instantly coiling around Luo Feng’s right leg and waist; the crushing force made him feel a pang of pain.

“Hmm?”

Luo Feng strained to break free, but the blue ribbons were too resilient—likely a powerful secret treasure—and he couldn’t escape.

Crack-crack-crack-crack—

Under the serpent’s constriction, cracks appeared on Luo Feng’s crimson scales, but they healed instantly.

Under the assault of four, Luo Feng’s body still held firm.

“His body is incredibly tough—barely damaged.” “But he can’t fight back. We’ll subdue and imprison him, then slowly kill him.”

The four Ghost Workshop elites exchanged silent thoughts.

Far away, Di Qing, locked in battle with another foe, noticed this and grew concerned: “One against four is too hard. The four Ghost Workshop elites together are too stubborn.”

Though worried, Di Qing wasn’t panicked.

They were Source World cultivators—even if they died today, they still had their avatars!

“Hahahaha…”

Bound and unable to resist, Luo Feng laughed aloud.

“You think this is my true body?” Luo Feng laughed at them. “The flesh technique I created—I named it the ‘Indestructible Blood Sea Body.’ Do you know why I chose that name?”

The five Ghost Workshop elites instantly realized something was wrong.

“Because the blood sea is my true body!” Luo Feng roared with laughter; his towering form dissolved into rolling waves, merging into the boundless, endless blood sea.

Yes.

!

The Indestructible Blood Sea Body stored eighty percent of its energy in the blood sea; the solidified body was merely twenty percent.

And his body could shift instantly between “blood sea” and “flesh” states—that was true indestructibility.

“Hmm?” The four Ghost Workshop elites attacking him were stunned—the towering figure before them had dissolved into waves, merging into the endless blood sea.

How do we fight now?

“Boom—”

The blood sea surged to the heavens!

In an instant, it covered all of heaven and earth.

“First stage of the secret treasure array—‘Diagram of Birth and Destruction’: Birth and Destruction Prison!” At the core of the boundless blood sea—the “Eye of the Blood Sea”—now combined with the array, a spatial prison formed within the Eye, now enclosing only the massive black sludge.

The black sludge reshaped into the cold man.

“What is this?” The cold man looked around.

This was a spatial prison formed within the Eye of the Blood Sea, completely cut off from the outside.

The forces of birth and destruction flowed ceaselessly, steadily eroding the enemy.

“Better to sever one finger than injure ten.” Luo Feng’s form materialized inside the prison. “I’ll kill you first.”

Luo Feng knew his limits—his Indestructible Blood Sea Body, combined with the array, could only safely imprison one enemy. Too many, and the prison might break, letting them escape.

Only one! His chances increased dramatically.

“You think you can kill me?” The cold man spoke, scanning his surroundings.

As the array activated, chains formed from birth and destruction forces appeared out of thin air, naturally binding the cold man—he could not resist.

“His power surpasses mine. No luck here.” The cold man realized his peril and immediately activated his life-saving artifact.

Hum—

The cold man instantly became intangible, slipping free of the chains, and slammed into the prison walls. Though the prison struggled to block him, it was pierced instantly—then he struck the multiple membranes of the “Eye of the Blood Sea.”

The Eye of the Blood Sea was the core of the Indestructible Blood Sea Body, like an internal world; Luo Feng’s heavenly avatar had merged with it, reinforcing the Eye.

“Boom.”

The intangible cold man struck the Eye’s membrane, piercing three layers before his momentum exhausted.

This artifact excelled in flight—its ability to pierce spatial membranes was inherently weaker. After piercing the prison and three layers of the Eye’s membranes, he could escape no further.

“What?” The cold man regretted it now.

He regretted buying too few life-saving artifacts!

He thought traveling with four companions was safe enough—just one artifact was sufficient.

“Looks like you didn’t escape!”

The prison rapidly repaired itself, instantly enclosing the cold man again; Luo Feng’s form appeared, smiling faintly. “Looks like today is truly your last day.”

“Spare me! Please spare me!” The cold man, bound again by the summoned chains, felt his body being eroded by birth and destruction forces—he panicked. “If you spare me, I’ll give you all my treasures!”

“Joke. When you’re dead, aren’t your treasures mine already?” Luo Feng looked at him.

"I have many close friends in the Ghost Workshop—if you kill me, you’ll make countless deadly enemies," the cold man said rapidly.

"So your meaning is, only you can kill me, but I can't kill you?" Luo Feng spoke, yet the suffocating grip of the Life-Death Prison showed no sign of slowing, continuously wearing down the man's body.

The cold man’s bodily energy dwindled further.

"No, no—" The cold man was frantic, simultaneously sending mental messages to his four companions.

…

The other four Ghost Workshop elites were stunned—was one of their own companions imprisoned in this boundless sea of blood?

“This sea of blood is his body—he must possess an ‘internal space,’ skilled at trapping enemies.” These four elites could not locate the Eye of the Blood Sea within the vast crimson expanse.

"Save me, save me. Even my life-saving artifact couldn’t get me out."

"Hurry, save me."

His companions were pleading for help.

The four elites were startled.

"Luo Feng, you’ve only been in Yulan City for a short time—if you kill 'Ku Mo,' his master and friends will surely target you," spoke the ice creature.

"If you kill him, the Ghost Workshop will not let you go, for the sake of our honor," the giant serpent also said coldly.

"Hahaha…"

The boundless sea of blood laughed, “I am a champion from the Source World—do I fear making enemies? If you want to kill, come! I’ll see who fears whom in the end!”
