Chapter 289: Episode 7: The Death of Kumo
Di Qing, in the distance, heard what Luo Feng said and felt his blood boil, laughing loudly: "That's right, we experts from the Source World have never been afraid of forging enmities!"
The four experts from the Ghost Workshop all felt that things were looking bad. Experts from the Source World generally acted quite prudently for the sake of a stable cultivation environment. But if they truly tore off the mask and fought to the death...
Source World experts might lose treasures, but they could send clones from their homeland continuously!
"I felt from the start that killing two mid-stage God Emperors wouldn't be that easy. We should have taken a fee and let them leave. But Kumo insisted on making a move."
"We can't find the place where Kumo is imprisoned in this endless blood sea at all; even if we wanted to save him, we have no way to do so."
The four experts from the Ghost Workshop were also quite troubled.
Suddenly—
"You guys help me think of a way; he is refining me, and I can't hold on much longer." The imprisoned cold-looking man anxiously transmitted his voice to the outside. "My body has already been refined by twenty percent!"
"Beg for mercy, negotiate, I don't care what method you use, just find a way to save me." The cold-looking man contacted them via transmission. "As long as you can save me, I am willing to give each of you ten million Using Hunyuan Crystals."
The four experts from the Ghost Workshop heard this.
"Refined by twenty percent?" They were shocked. Those natural Using Hunyuan lifeforms all had life cores! But they, the cultivators, had no vital points; either their soul was completely annihilated, or their physical body was completely destroyed.
"If Kumo dies, this endless blood sea might imprison another one of us, breaking us one by one."
The ice creature transmitted its voice to its three companions from afar.
Once these words were spoken, the three companions also felt a jolt in their hearts.
Everyone had joined the Ghost Workshop; did they have such deep friendship? Naturally, that was impossible.
"Go."
"Hurry and go."
After the four of them unified their thoughts, the light shadow that had been fighting Di Qing flashed and merged with the other three companions.
"Kumo, we will tell your master and let him find a way to save you." The four of them transmitted a sentence, then joined forces, transforming into a hazy light. The hazy light tore through all obstacles and forcibly fled into the distance.
If both sides fought, it would be hard to determine a winner in a short time, and Luo Feng would also have to spend time breaking them one by one.
Once they fled with all their might, Luo Feng's endless blood sea could not intercept them.
*Whoosh. *
The hazy light was extremely fast, and within two breaths, it had vanished at the edge of the distant horizon.
*Whoosh. *
The endless blood sea condensed into a black-robed figure; it was Luo Feng.
"They're gone." Di Qing also flew to Luo Feng's side, looking at the distance with a smile. "I didn't expect that two against five... they lost one, and the other four fled directly."
"These plundering forces, how could they have any deep friendship?" Luo Feng sneered.
"By the way, do you have a way to kill that God Emperor you imprisoned?" Di Qing asked.
"A moment will suffice." Luo Feng said.
Di Qing immediately revealed a smile: "Satisfying, truly satisfying. They wanted to kill us, so we should kill them! After killing that God Emperor, the spoils might be even more than the spoils from this hunt."
Luo Feng's heart stirred.
"Experts from the myriad worlds don't have clones! So the treasures they accumulate are always carried on their bodies." Di Qing laughed.
Luo Feng understood.
Some auxiliary rare treasures, inheritances, etc., might have been gone long ago. But the habitual weapons, secret treasures, and some materials needed for cultivation were generally carried with them.
"To prevent them from finding help, let's leave here first." Luo Feng said. At this moment, he was fully refining the imprisoned Kumo.
"Let's go."
Di Qing and Luo Feng immediately drove the black flying boat together and left rapidly.
Within Luo Feng's body, the "Eye of the Blood Sea" of the Undying Blood Sea Body.
Inside the spatial prison deployed by the secret treasure array map.
*Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle. *
The life-death chains condensed from the array's power bound Kumo's figure, eroding and strangling Kumo's body.
"This Kumo's body is condensed from countless rule-based poisons." Luo Feng's clone arrived here, observing the opponent with the Imitation Life-Death Eye. Kumo's body was actually endless black mire.
Blasting his body apart only caused him to disperse into countless poisons, with no loss at all.
Luo Feng had made his move this time by covering a vast area with the endless blood sea, imprisoning all the "black mire poison" in one fell swoop, which was the only way to prevent Kumo from escaping.
*Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle. * At this moment, the life-death array joined forces to refine, constantly refining and consuming the rule-based poisons one by one.
"They fled?"
Kumo was furious, but then he felt relieved.
In the entire Yulan City, the only one truly close to him was his master! Who else truly cared about his life or death?
"What a terrifying array." Kumo could not escape. Feeling the erosion and strangulation of the life-death array's power, he had originally not been afraid of close combat. This time, he had been the first to attach himself to Luo Feng's body, wanting to erode Luo Feng's body.
Who would have thought that in terms of body, Luo Feng was clearly stronger.
"My 'Ghost Poison Body' can be used to engage in close combat with mid-stage God Emperor low-level Using Hunyuan lifeforms, can erode them, and can injure them."
"But my Ghost Poison Body cannot fight against this life-death array's power." Kumo's body gradually twisted, with only his head maintaining a normal appearance, while his body began to become a large amount of black mire.
The black mire was constantly being refined and consumed.
"Luo Feng."
Kumo kept his normal head and looked at Luo Feng.
Luo Feng stood not far away, observing Kumo's current state with the Imitation Life-Death Eye.
"I don't know what conditions you need to let me go." Kumo looked at Luo Feng.
"You want to live that much?" Luo Feng looked at him. "I want to live."
Kumo nodded.
"Since you want to live, why act so ruthlessly? I gave you a sum of Using Hunyuan Crystals, yet you still insisted on making a move?" Luo Feng said. "When you chose to make a move, you should have understood that once you fell into my hands, I wouldn't give you another chance."
Kumo nodded, a smile appearing on his cold face: "Walking along this path, I've killed too many living beings; it's finally my turn to be killed."
Kumo closed his eyes.
At this moment—
He recalled his journey.
The world he was born in, the Great Dao was poisonous! The more one cultivated, the closer one was to "death." One had to break through to the next realm before each calamity arrived to continue surviving with difficulty.
He had walked through over three hundred worlds, witnessed the destruction of nineteen worlds with his own eyes, and had also caused the destruction of three worlds.
He himself had ascended three times!
He had forcibly reached the God King layer before the final "Great Dao Death Calamity," mastering a branch of the Great Dao. Only by mastering a branch of the Great Dao could one escape the "Great Dao Death Calamity." Afterward, he had even mastered the complete poisonous Great Dao...
!
After arriving in Yulan City, he realized the Ghost Workshop's inheritance was too suitable for him, and he used it to practice the Ghost Poison Body.
Killing and plundering were as common as breathing to him; he didn't even care about destroying worlds.
"I reached the God King layer to escape the Great Dao Death Calamity."
"However, over the long years, I've become accustomed to it—accustomed to killing, accustomed to plundering, accustomed to all of it."
"Habit has long since seeped into my soul."
At this moment, nearing death, Kumo finally understood.
The pressure of the "Great Dao Death Calamity" and the numerous calamities from his weakness to the God King layer had influenced him too deeply.
*Whoosh. *
His body had been nearly refined, with only a small amount remaining.
At this moment, Kumo tried to contact his companions, but because the distance was too far, he could no longer contact them. The Jiuhe Holy Realm had strong suppression in all aspects, and the communication range of communication treasures was relatively small.
"I can't contact them."
At this moment, Kumo thought of his only master.
His master's talent was much stronger than his; he was able to escape the death calamity and reach today thanks to his master.
"Master, don't avenge me." Kumo murmured. "I didn't die at the hands of other cultivators; I died at the hands of the Great Dao Death Calamity."
*Whoosh. *
Finally, the remaining small amount of black mire was also completely refined.
Kumo vanished completely, leaving no residue.
Only when he died did secret treasures and other items remain.
Luo Feng watched the entire refining process from beginning to end. A cultivator with the "strength of a mid-stage God Emperor Dao-seeker"—he believed his cultivation career was a legend, and Luo Feng knew their cultivation was not easy.
Moreover, Luo Feng also knew that the predecessors of Yuan had spent a lot of effort to cultivate powerful cultivators.
Therefore, in Yulan City, Luo Feng was very low-key and didn't cause trouble.
But when the other party wanted to kill him, Luo Feng would not hold back!
"You are the first God Emperor I've killed." Luo Feng said softly, waving his hand to put away the secret treasures Kumo had left behind.
These secret treasures included the treasure storage "Phantom Realm Labyrinth" and ghost poison secret treasures.
As for the inside of the Illusion Realm Labyrinth, a large quantity of items is stored there.
Among them were a large number of low-level Using Hunyuan lifeform materials, leaning toward the ghost poison type. There were also other spoils obtained from successful plundering; the secret treasure "Phantom Realm Labyrinth" alone contained three items.
"There are quite a few cultivators who died at his hands." Luo Feng thought. "Many of the materials he bought are also high-quality."
Unlike his own poverty-stricken purchasing method.
Kumo's purchasing was much more luxurious; of course, a large number of materials were also to assist him in refining poison.
"I estimate these materials and treasures are worth about 80 million Using Hunyuan Crystals." Luo Feng judged. Most of the gains from a cultivation career would be consumed, such as purchasing auxiliary rare treasures or purchasing a super-strong inheritance.
What was carried on the body were just common cultivation items, and their value was relatively limited.
"80 million Using Hunyuan Crystals is also quite good." Luo Feng was very satisfied.
The subsequent journey home was much smoother; they didn't encounter any more plundering, and the black flying boat successfully arrived at Yulan City.
"Brother Luo Feng, you killed Kumo, and this information will spread quickly." Di Qing said. "In Yulan City, your fame will be much greater than before."
Previously, Luo Feng was too low-key, and the outside world even thought Luo Feng was an early-stage God Emperor.
This time...
Luo Feng fought one against four, dealt with four mid-stage God Emperors, and even killed a mid-stage God Emperor, "Kumo"! This strength was definitely at an extremely strong level among mid-stage God Emperor Dao-seekers, enough to attract the attention of many forces.
"Looking at Yulan City, your strength is enough to rank in the top two thousand." Di Qing said. "With greater fame, even if you don't cause trouble, I'm afraid trouble will find you."
Luo Feng nodded.
"By the way, according to the information, God Emperor Kumo only had one true friend and relative in Yulan City, and that is his master, 'Yu Yong'." Di Qing said. "His master, Yu Yong, is much more troublesome."
"My presence in the Jiuhe Holy Realm is only a clone, so what is there to be afraid of?" Luo Feng laughed easily.
The opponent was a true body, while he was a clone.
The one who should be panicked was the opponent!
*Whoosh. * The black flying boat flew in the high sky of Yulan City, heading straight for the direction of the Using Hunyuan Palace.
