Chapter 330: Chapter Eight: Luo Feng and the Ultra-Limits

“Stop them, buy time!”

The Elders of Yulan City each activated the city’s arrays, unleashing countless array energies to strike at the Low-Level Hunyuan Life army; though the army could easily withstand the array assaults, their flight speed was severely hindered.

“Hurry.”

“We must hurry!”

“If we delay too long, Luo Feng will imprint his arrays within Yulan City—his arrays are far more terrifying than the combined efforts of over three hundred Elders! Then we’ll be in deep trouble!” The five ‘Wangs’ clearly understood the situation.

Though the emergence of a powerhouse like Luo Feng had made the situation dangerous, these Ultra-Limit beings still refused to give up.

Without an Ultra-Limit infiltrator breaching from within, their chance of breaking the city was negligible!

Now that the city has fallen, this is the moment to fight to the death!

“Shadow, act!” From within the Low-Level Hunyuan Life army, a blue-and-white figure moved with astonishing speed, arriving at the core zone first.

“Understood.” The Ultra-Limit Delusion Worm immediately rushed forward, seeking to join forces.

“Are those two going to unite?”

Luo Feng’s thirty-four clones guarded their positions; with the Simulated Death-Eye observing and the City-Seal sensing every movement within, he knew perfectly well that these two ‘Wangs’ intended to merge and attack together.

“The Ultra-Limit Shuanguang Demon Lord.” Luo Feng observed the blue-and-white figure—it had eight thick, razor-sharp hooves, its body covered in blue-and-white scales, and its upper half resembling a humanoid form with two powerful arms.

Its face was cold, its eyes glowing deep blue.

Shhh.

As it moved, it flashed like streaking light; though it did not pierce space, its speed was extraordinary.

“Do you think I’ll let you unite?”

Luo Feng moved.

The strongest clone, endowed with the Immortal Heart and the Palm Realm, surged forward—Luo Feng took one step, walking between the cracks of heaven and earth, and in just two strides, he closed the distance to the massive blue-and-white figure.

“Boom—rumble~~~~”

In the instant Luo Feng drew near, he transformed into an endless sea of blood, ready to drown the towering blue-and-white form.

This endless sea contained five hundred times the energy reserve, and its core was the secret treasure ‘Immortal Heart’! After attaining the ‘Late Divine Emperor’s Path of Birth and Death,’ Luo Feng’s understanding of the ‘Immortal Heart’ had reached a far higher level—the hidden power unleashed now surpassed even the Late Divine Emperor’s Path of Birth and Death.

This was the advantage of secret treasures—they allowed cultivators to exceed their limits.

Each drop of this endless sea was unbreakably resilient; the vast waves carried terrifying binding power.

“Riiip!”

Shuanguang Demon Lord, with its massive body, stomped the void with its eight thick hooves, moving at incredible speed, crushing through the sea of blood. Each claw tip was like a blade, slicing through the blood waves’ bindings.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!” The hooves stomping the blood sea shook heaven and earth; Shuanguang Demon Lord forcibly broke free from the blood sea’s restraint, its eyes filled with icy malice: “Die!”

It gave no quarter—its opening move was a desperate attack; its entire body erupted in blinding blue-and-white light. Its vast internal energy exploded in an instant—in the eyes of Yulan City’s cultivators and the distant Low-Level Hunyuan Life legions, only an immense, blinding blue-and-white orb appeared, as if a giant light sphere had formed in the heavens.

The giant orb engulfed the entire sea of blood, as if seeking to incinerate it.

Yet the ‘Immortal Heart,’ this secret treasure, excelled most in defensive resilience—the blood sea remained unharmed, not a single drop damaged.

“The Immortal Heart offers supreme defensive strength, but its offensive power is lacking. With just the Immortal Heart, I can remain invincible and suppress this Shuanguang Demon Lord—but killing it will be difficult.”

“To deal with one Ultra-Limit, I must deploy two secret treasures.”

Luo Feng increasingly recognized the flaws in his cultivation methods. If his ‘Immortal Blood Sea Body’ and ‘Simulated Death-Eye’ techniques were perfected to a higher level, killing an Ultra-Limit would be far easier.

……

“The Ultra-Limit Shuanguang Demon Lord is terrifying.”

The Elders of Yulan City, witnessing this explosion of power, trembled inwardly.

Under such power, any Elder would be reduced to ash in a single glance.

“Is Lord Luo Feng being suppressed by this Ultra-Limit Shuanguang Demon Lord?” The Elders could not discern the situation—only seeing the Demon Lord’s hooves crushing the blood sea, and endless light burning it.

……

“My desperate attack didn’t even scratch him?” Shuanguang Demon Lord sensed that every drop of the endless sea remained unbroken, utterly intact—it felt a creeping unease.

Suddenly—

“Boom—”

From within the endless sea, a colossal, furry claw suddenly shot out!

At close range, Shuanguang Demon Lord had no time to dodge—it felt heaven and earth split apart, forming a spatial prison. The colossal furry claw seized its body in one grip.

“How is this possible?” Shuanguang Demon Lord strained its arms with all its might, struggling violently.

Yet it felt utterly powerless against the furry giant claw—the claw’s power was terrifying, forcibly suppressing its resistance, tightening further still. Its razor claws had already shattered many blue-and-white scales, gradually piercing into Shuanguang Demon Lord’s body.

“What?” Shuanguang Demon Lord erupted in light, layers of radiance shielding its flesh, struggling desperately.

“Still alive after one claw? These Ultra-Limits truly are born Hunyuan Lives—their vitality is indeed formidable.”

Luo Feng was slightly surprised.

Boom—

The colossal furry claw dragged Shuanguang Demon Lord’s body deep into the endless sea.

The blood sea churned, fully engulfing Shuanguang Demon Lord; the blood sea array activated, layer upon layer of binding force crushing the Demon Lord, subjecting it to the combined pressure of the entire array.

“No—” Shuanguang Demon Lord struggled, the blood sea surging—but it could not break free.

As it struggled, Luo Feng did not pause—the colossal furry claw struck again and again, each blow capable of grievously wounding Shuanguang Demon Lord.

One devastating strike after another—Shuanguang Demon Lord endured over ten blows; its battered body was pierced through by countless blood holes from the furry claw, its life core finally exposed and shattered.

Shuanguang Demon Lord’s eyes dimmed instantly.

Its ruined, massive body lost all capacity to resist.

The corpse of the Ultra-Limit ‘Shuanguang Demon Lord’ floated in the depths of the blood sea.

“Finally killed it.” Luo Feng sighed inwardly.

For him now, defeating an Ultra-Limit was easy—but killing a Low-Level Hunyuan Life Ultra-Limit still required both the ‘Immortal Heart’ and the ‘Palm Realm.’ After all, he had only just broken through!

Whoosh—Luo Feng immediately sent a thought, storing Shuanguang Demon Lord’s corpse in his storage treasure.

……

In the eyes of Yulan City’s Elders, among countless cultivators observing, and within the gaze of the Low-Level Hunyuan Life army, the clash between cultivator ‘Luo Feng’ and the Ultra-Limit Shuanguang Demon Lord lasted only about seven breaths.

Since being seized by the furry giant claw and dragged into the depths of the blood sea, Shuanguang Demon Lord struggled for a few breaths, causing the blood sea to ripple and tremble—then it died completely.

This scene shocked both sides!

“That was an Ultra-Limit Low-Level Hunyuan Life.”

“Legends say even cultivators who master two and a half Hunyuan Dao paths need sufficient accumulation and the right secret treasure to hunt one.”

“In less than ten breaths, one-on-one, this Ultra-Limit was killed?”

The cultivators of Yulan City who witnessed this battle felt exhilarated, thrilled.

But the Low-Level Hunyuan Life army was stunned and enraged—especially the other four Ultra-Limits!

“Luo Feng has grown within Yulan City—just recently, he was still far from a Hall Master. Even after breaking through to his current realm, he should be newly ascended! How could he kill Shuanguang so easily?”

“Newly ascended, even with powerful secret treasures, he shouldn’t be this strong.”

The four Ultra-Limits could not comprehend it.

Master Yuanxiang also found it incomprehensible.

“Luo Feng’s cultivation, in my view, follows the Paths of Life and Destruction.” Master Yuanxiang, in his ordinary cave dwelling in the outer district, had deduced Luo Feng’s path from the earlier Birth-and-Death Array: “Even if he has advanced both Life and Destruction to half-Hunyuan level, combining them effectively still requires time and accumulation.”

Two half-Hunyuan Dao paths must be perfectly fused to achieve a qualitative leap beyond a single one-and-a-half-Hunyuan Dao path.

“Perhaps he possesses a very powerful secret treasure?” Master Yuanxiang speculated.

In the Infinite Space, every secret treasure worth over 100,000 reward points can create miracles.

“Regardless, Yulan City is saved this time.” Master Yuanxiang’s confidence grew stronger: “I just don’t know how many cultivators will die. If casualties stay under thirty percent, that’s already good.”

He knew well—the army had already breached the city! Over two thousand Divine Emperor Perfects, tens of thousands of Divine Emperor Late Stage…

At the moment the city fell, heavy casualties were inevitable.

……

At the moment Shuanguang Demon Lord died, the Ultra-Limit Delusion Worm instantly turned phantom and retreated rapidly.

The colossal entity in the winding mountains, the Thunderous Multi-Tentacled Beast, the flying creature with vast black wings—all three Ultra-Limit beings changed course, actively seeking to unite.

“We cannot face him one-on-one.”

“We must unite first—then all four Ultra-Limits will attack him together!”

“From his battle against Shuanguang, his realm is slightly higher than ours, and he wields powerful secret treasures. That furry giant claw… I can sense it was forged from the corpse of a High-Level Hunyuan Life.”

“These cultivators are granted suitable secret treasures. We have nothing suitable at all. This battle is inherently unfair!”

“There’s nothing we can do—this is ultimately a place where cultivators nurture their successors. Naturally, they favor these cultivators.”

“If we returned to the domain ruled by the Ancestor, these cultivators would be our food.”

All four Ultra-Limits harbored resentment—but since being captured by the cultivators’ faction’s escapees and cast into the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, they had no choice but to obey the rules.

The four Ultra-Limits now actively united early—though this wasted time and allowed Luo Feng to fully focus on imprinting arrays—they had no other option. Alone, they would die; even two together might not survive.
