Chapter 291: Episode 7: Early-stage God Emperor, Life-Death Dao

Yulan City in the dark night was still prosperous. Luo Feng watched the golden-armored figure fly away from afar, feeling the undisguised malice of the other party. In the eyes of that golden-armored figure, 'Qiu Yike', Luo Feng's future days would be miserable.

"They plundered outside the city, failed, and still want me, the victim, to compensate? The Ghost Workshop is not just ordinarily overbearing." Luo Feng shook his head slightly. "As for Elder Tianhe? I'd like to see what he can do to me!"

Luo Feng smiled slightly and continued to stroll to the next shop.

And in Di Qing's cave dwelling.

Luo Feng's clone here had already immediately summoned his companions.

"What's wrong?" Di Ming had been in seclusion cultivating recently and had no intention of hunting. However, he did not block the voice transmissions from Luo Feng and Di Qing, even when in seclusion.

"Brother Luo Feng, what happened?" Di Fu was currently working at the Nine-Ring World Tower in the city; of course, he cultivated the spatial path, and there was also a clone in the cave dwelling.

Di Qing sat to the side and had already guessed: "Is it the Ghost Workshop?"

"Yes."

Luo Feng looked at his three companions and nodded. "Just a moment ago, the Ghost Workshop's Vice Workshop Master, 'Elder Tianhe', sent a subordinate to see me, asking me to compensate fifty million Using Hunyuan Crystals, and the matter of the plundering and counter-killing would be dropped. I refused directly."

"Plundering and counter-killing?"

"You were plundered outside the city?" Di Ming and Di Fu only then realized that the two big thighs they relied on had caused big trouble outside.

Di Qing explained from the side: "On the way back from hunting with Brother Luo Feng, we were intercepted by a Ghost Workshop team. That Ghost Workshop team had a total of five experts at the mid-stage God Emperor Dao-seeker layer. Five experts besieged us... Brother Luo Feng killed one named Kumo, and the other four also fled out of fear."

"Two against five, and killed one in return? And it was at the mid-stage God Emperor Dao-seeker layer?" Di Ming and Di Fu were shocked.

Di Fu was currently still working hard to become a "God King Ultimate Realm."

Di Ming was only at the early-stage God Emperor layer on the Using Hunyuan bloodline path! He knew very well that the mid-stage God Emperor Dao-seeker layer... corresponded to a late-stage God Emperor bloodline cultivator! This level of bloodline cultivator was only one step away from the half-Using Hunyuan layer, and they besieged Luo Feng and were killed in return?

"The Ghost Workshop is threatening me." Luo Feng said, looking at Di Ming and Di Fu. "I'm not afraid of them, but you two need to be careful."

Di Qing also nodded from the side: "The Ghost Workshop's revenge will come soon. There are legal restrictions in the city, and they dare not act openly, so they can't do anything to me and Brother Luo Feng, but you two are too weak. Even some dark means are enough to deal with you two."

"I haven't gone out recently." Di Ming said.

"I have many clones." Di Fu laughed. "The ones who go out are all very poor clones."

Luo Feng and Di Qing then nodded.

"The laws of Yulan City are strict, although some Elders act ruthlessly in secret! But on the surface, heavy arrays shroud the entire city, and they cannot openly violate the laws." Di Qing looked at Luo Feng. "Even if they act in the dark, they are some hidden means. Hidden means cannot do anything to you or me."

Luo Feng agreed.

With his Blood Sea Undying Body, even if Elder Tianhe acted openly, in a battle, Elder Tianhe would probably have to use some techniques to kill one of Luo Feng's Blood Sea Undying Bodies.

It was still safe in the city.

"The Insect Nest, Wan Ying Xiao Lou, and the Ghost Workshop all act very ruthlessly. Their revenge is mainly outside the city." Di Qing said. "If we don't have absolute certainty, let's not go out hunting for the time being."

"Yes." Luo Feng also agreed. "Let's rest well for a period of time."

Di Qing had just become a mid-stage God Emperor and could estimate that it would be very difficult to break through for a long time to come. He needed long-term accumulation, and now that he had offended the Ghost Workshop, he was not willing to take risks in a hurry.

Luo Feng had obtained a large sum of spoils this time and also wanted to digest these treasures well!

The Ghost Workshop's revenge came very quickly.

Just two days later, Di Fu lost his job at the Nine-Ring World Tower, and on his way back from leaving the Nine-Ring World Tower, he was annihilated silently! He couldn't even investigate how the murderer made the move.

"The Ghost Workshop really has no bottom line, acting against you?" Although Luo Feng and Di Qing had expected it, they were still quite angry when it happened.

An organization like the Ghost Workshop simply didn't care about reputation.

"I just had a miscellaneous job, not worth mentioning." Di Fu laughed. "I guess the Ghost Workshop just passed a word to a middle-level person at the Nine-Ring World Tower, and with one sentence, my job was gone."

After all, Di Fu's status was too low; he belonged to the very bottom at the Nine-Ring World Tower.

"The sneak attack on you contained causal means." Di Qing said from the side. "Fortunately, the Jiuhe Holy Realm has great suppression on causality, and the array in my cave dwelling also has an isolation effect. So it couldn't hurt your clone in the cave dwelling."

"If the clone in the cave dwelling had also died, I would have had to travel from the Origin Continent." Di Fu laughed. "I really didn't expect that I, a bottom-dweller in Yulan City, could also be targeted by the Ghost Workshop."

"You were implicated by me." Luo Feng said. "Di Fu, you lost this job because of me! I owe you. Before long, I will return a better job to you."

"Haha, then I've made a big profit." Di Fu laughed. "For a period of time recently, I can just happen to go into seclusion and study some of my gains at the Nine-Ring World Tower."

Luo Feng knew very well.

Di Fu seemed not to care, but in fact, he cherished that job at the Nine-Ring World Tower very much. When he first got that job, the four of them celebrated it. Now that he had lost his job, how could Di Fu not feel heartache and disappointment?

"Ghost Workshop, Elder Tianhe!" Luo Feng's eyes turned a few degrees colder.

... An official flying boat passed through Yulan City, and Luo Feng changed his appearance and aura with "Formless and Faceless," boarding the official flying boat very low-key.

Afterward, from the lake at the foot of the Holy Mountain, he performed a transmission through the Infinite Using Hunyuan Space and returned to the Origin Continent.

Origin Continent, Huyang City, City Lord's Mansion.

"I'm back."

Luo Feng stood on the high building of the City Lord's Mansion, looking at the huge, furry palm that held up the entire Huyang City. This huge, furry palm was the natural secret treasure Luo Feng controlled, "Palm World."

"Palm World, its value is quite close to the 'Undying Heart'." Luo Feng thought. "But to truly exert its power, the difficulty is higher than the Undying Heart."

The Undying Heart was a secret treasure Luo Feng specifically chose in the Infinite Space Treasury that was most compatible with himself. With the two paths of "Life and Destruction" as the core, it was naturally the easiest to deploy.

The natural secret treasure "Palm World," according to the judgment of the Yanfeng Ancestor at the time, should have been a claw of a high-level Using Hunyuan lifeform, and it had been gestated for long years within the body of that world-level Using Hunyuan lifeform in the Dream Realm before forming such a natural secret treasure.

It had very distinct life characteristics, just like the blood-colored scales of the Star Tower, with life as the core, but also containing a large number of other paths.

This natural secret treasure "Palm World" was the same; life was the core, while also containing many profound mysteries such as world, destruction, space, matter, and immeasurable. So the difficulty for Luo Feng to exert its power naturally increased greatly.

!

"Whoosh."

Luo Feng took a step and immediately returned to the Star Tower.

One of the cultivation spaces of the Star Tower stored a large amount of low-level Using Hunyuan lifeform materials.

Luo Feng waved his hand at this moment, and materials with even stronger auras descended.

"Low-level Using Hunyuan lifeforms with late-stage God Emperor strength, there are 800 materials in total, with an average price of 38,000 Using Hunyuan Crystals per piece. In the Jiuhe Holy Realm, I have also collected about seventy percent of the low-level Using Hunyuan lifeforms suitable for me at this level."

"Low-level Using Hunyuan lifeforms at the God Emperor Perfection level, there are 80 materials in total, with an average price of 390,000 Using Hunyuan Crystals per piece."

"I also purchased three 'Super-Limit' low-level Using Hunyuan lifeform materials, spending a total of 10.2 million Using Hunyuan Crystals."

Luo Feng's main wealth was invested in materials.

Low-level Using Hunyuan lifeforms were divided into different races. Within the same race, the weak ones might be early-stage God Emperors, while the strong ones might be God Emperor Perfection level.

Just like among cultivators, there were some whose strength was extremely tyrannical, far exceeding those at the same level.

Among the "God Emperor Perfection level" low-level Using Hunyuan lifeforms, there were also a very small number of extremely dazzling ones, whose strength far exceeded their peers. In the Jiuhe Holy Realm, they were called "Super-Limit."

One-on-one, even the three Hall Masters of Yulan City generally couldn't fight them.

The so-called "Super-Limit low-level Using Hunyuan lifeform" corpse materials in the Jiuhe Holy Realm were generally transported from the Dark Holy Realm, where the intensity of fighting was much higher, making it relatively easier to obtain corpses at this level.

For Super-Limit corpse materials, even the scraps were worth at least several million Using Hunyuan Crystals each.

"Each of these low-level Using Hunyuan lifeform materials contains the profound mysteries of 'Life and Destruction'." Luo Feng was quite delighted. "The gains this time are much more than before. And I also purchased quite a few auxiliary rare treasures for cultivation."

"This time, the Life-Death Dao must break through."

The Life-Death Eye between Luo Feng's brows opened, and he began to carefully study these newly obtained materials, starting his cultivation.

Cultivation at the God Emperor level often involved hundreds or thousands of epochs of seclusion. This time, Di Qing had also decided to go into long-term seclusion for cultivation, and Luo Feng had also prepared for long-term seclusion.

However, this time Luo Feng had purchased too many low-level Using Hunyuan lifeform materials, and many of them were systematic.

For example, for the same race, Luo Feng collected early-stage, mid-stage, late-stage, and perfection-level God Emperors. By comparing and contemplating them, Luo Feng naturally gained more.

Luo Feng studied the materials one by one, and he hadn't even finished studying the first pass! He only studied about seventy percent, spending nearly two hundred epochs, and the "Life-Death Dao" naturally completed itself during the slow accumulation, forming a qualitative change.

"Hmm?"

Sitting cross-legged in the Star Tower, Luo Feng habitually contemplated, studied, analyzed, and integrated, and naturally integrated the complete "early-stage God Emperor Life-Death Dao" in his heart.

Luo Feng was stunned at first.

Then, he was filled with joy.

The joy of enlightenment was what cultivators were most obsessed with.

Many God Emperors were already invincible in their original home worlds and could enjoy everything they could enjoy, but in the end, they still risked death to go to the Jiuhe Holy Realm, continuing to fight and explore. They wanted to pursue a higher-level Dao and wanted to see more scenery.

"Nine hundred epochs since I went to Yulan City! The Life-Death Dao has finally crossed from the God King Ultimate Realm to the early-stage God Emperor." Luo Feng whispered with a smile.
