Chapter 956: Luo Feng’s Strength Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio "Who would like to start?" Luo Feng asked, looking at the three strong beings in the distance. "I am slightly weaker than Cha Man Emperor and Li Li Emperor," said Thousand Rain Emperor. "How about I take the first shot? Blade River Emperor, if you fight them first, you might lose pretty badly." Both Cha Man Emperor and Li Li Emperor looked at Luo Feng, waiting for him to choose. "If you want to fight, bring in the strongest one," Luo Feng said bluntly. "Fair enough," said Thousand Rain Emperor. Cha Man Emperor and Li Li Emperor looked at each other. And then, the world was filled with Cha Man Emperor's eerie voice. "Li Li Emperor and I are basically on the same level," he said. "I can fight first. However, Blade River… do not underestimate us just because we are low-keyed. There are only two to three Beast God-level emperors among humans who are stronger than us. Newcomers like Seven Blade Emperor are weaker than us." "I surely won't underestimate you," said Luo Feng. He knew very well that among humans, many of the older guys maintained low profiles. Although these guys had probably been stuck in the last step for an eternity, some of them possessed intimidating, tremendous strength. On the contrary, rising newcomers like Seven Blade Emperor and Dream Fire Emperor may have been enjoying great fame, but if they couldn't even break through 100 million eras, they would fade to obscurity in future generations. That was simply the cruel nature of time. ****** In midair, Luo Feng and Cha Man Emperor faced each other across a distance. "Familiarize yourself with your godly body," said Cha Man Emperor. "Let me remind you that we will be fighting in the virtual world. Hence, as soon as the fight begins, we will both burn our godly bodies and fight frantically. Do not be as reluctant to burn your godly body as you are in reality." "Hmm," said Luo Feng, feeling his own virtual godly body. Boom! With vigorous power filling his body—his every cell comprised of unparalleled godly force—Luo Feng could, if he were willing, turn into an inexhaustible godly force in an instant. Even when his godly body was shattered to pieces, he could recover in the blink of an eye. His confidence in his own dominance and absolute control was much stronger than when he had been a sector lord. This was a godly body 100,000 times stronger than that of a sector lord! "There are pros and cons," Luo Feng said, acclimating to this godly body. "In real life, even with the assistance of the general soul, my spiritual force is only on the low emperor level. Thanks to my willpower, which is more domineering than most of the universe knights, I can ultimately rival pinnacle emperors. But right now, even without the general soul, I have reached the pinnacle emperor realm with virtual godly force. Coupled with my willpower and consciousness, I will naturally grow stronger." During his sector lord period, the primal force had combined with the spiritual force, becoming the strength of a world. During his undying period, they became an undying force. Now, with the virtualized undying godly force, he could strike a soul attack. "Previously, in the real world," Luo Feng muttered, "my strength of a world was too weak. My soul was nothing compared to the general soul, even after my soul amplification using the techniques that I inherited from Demon Note God-General. But now… my virtualized godly force is amplifying completely once again." From the aspects of godly force and amplification, Luo Feng had, indeed, improved a lot. But there was a weakness. The supreme treasure, the Star Map, was gone. The power of the Star Map could have helped Luo Feng skip two or even three levels. "Weapon." As he turned his palms over, 600 semi-transparent golden globes filled with mysterious engravings, which were the interpretations of Luo Feng's mightiest techniques, started to float above his hands. These were very common spiritual weapons Luo Feng made through the virtual universe. After all, only common weapons could be used during battles in the World of Glory. "Have you gotten used to it?" said Cha Man Emperor. Luo Feng laughed. "Cha Man Emperor," he said, "you'll have to exert your greatest effort to avoid a humiliating defeat." With a booming sound, Luo Feng's breath intensified. His every cell started to burn completely, and his strength became 1,000 times stronger in a split second. "How long have you been cultivating?" asked Cha Man Emperor. "A little friendly advice: Don't mess around with us old tough guys. I will defeat you within three moves." Abruptly, two giant, blade-shaped claws appeared, covering Cha Man Emperor's fists. Buzz. The 600 golden globes floated as Luo Feng turned his hands over. "Spirit reader?" said Cha Man Emperor. He frowned slightly, looking at Luo Feng in confusion. Before heading to the land of inheritance, spirit readers should have been told by the members within their races that they would be at a disadvantage if they were to take the beast god path. Why was Blade River Emperor still a spirit reader? Luo Feng tossed the globes randomly. Through the intricate patterns on the 600 golden globes, the burning virtualized godly force activated the law of merging ultimate sources. Suddenly, an enormous Beast God appeared high in the air. Since this move was unleashed by burning godly force, this Beast God was more real—so much so that its scaled tail had infinitely formidable power. "Humph!" Cha Man Emperor snorted deeply. Boom! Cha Man Emperor transformed swiftly into a human-shaped Beast God with thick shoulders covered in scale armor. Behind him, a giant, semi-visible Beast God shadow also emerged. His eyes were fraught with madness. This powerful human being, quite genteel a moment before, had suddenly become insanely barbaric. Cha Man Emperor became a beam of light and pounced at Luo Feng. ****** Thousand Rain Emperor and Li Li Emperor watched attentively from afar. "Blade River Emperor is indeed impressive," said Thousand Rain Emperor, pleasantly surprised. "Though he is in a slightly unfavorable position, he has gotten used to Cha Man Emperor's fighting style in no time. They are running neck and neck." "Hold on," Li Li Emperor said in a soft voice. "Cha Man Emperor thinks that Blade River Emperor is weak in techniques due to his short cultivation time. That's why Cha Man Emperor didn't use his most powerful secret technique from the start. Look, Blade River Emperor is losing out, isn't he? Humph. Now that their godly bodies are on the same level, it is the comprehension of laws, secret techniques, godly force amplification, experience, etc., that are at stake. Cha Man Emperor is perfect in those aspects. His secret technique is a pinnacle technique, and his godly force amplification is inherited from the Demon Note God General." Pinnacle techniques were not uncommon. Almost every universe knight could create pinnacle techniques, so those remarkable geniuses who had the potential to become universe knights would certainly put stricter demands on themselves. Particularly in the event that they couldn't break through the endless ages, those geniuses would put greater emphasis on the creation of pinnacle techniques. Under the instruction of good teachers, many talents from peak races had created pinnacle techniques over an extended time. Luo Feng had complimented simply because it had cost him a short time to invent his pinnacle techniques. "It is not bad for Blade River Emperor to be on a par with Cha Man Emperor, who is…" Li Li Emperor trailed off, stunned. "What…?" Thousand Rain Emperor was also stupefied. "Blade River Emperor, he—" But he couldn't even finish his sentence. To their surprise, Blade River Emperor's energy suddenly burst. Previously, the two opponents had been equally matched. But now, Blade River Emperor's strength seemed to surge, suppressing Cha Man Emperor immediately. ****** In the air. With his gaze burning crazily, Luo Feng maximized his willpower in an instant. "You shall lose," he said. Boom! With a rumbling sound that trembled the surrounding space, the scaled tail of the giant Beast God pushed through time and space like a steamroller. The thrashing of the scaled tail was terrifyingly fast and ferocious. Bang! Roaring, the human-shaped Beast God of Cha Man Emperor resisted the whipping of the scaled tail with his two claws. Bang! He was beaten so hard that his godly body deteriorated rapidly. "Admit your defeat!" demanded Luo Feng. Gaining momentum, Luo Feng attacked Cha Man Emperor repeatedly until the godly body of Cha Man Emperor vanished entirely. Luo Feng had won! Standing in midair, Luo Feng gazed at the dumbfounded Thousand Rain Emperor and Li Li Emperor in the distance. In astonishment, he muttered to himself, "I can't believe that I am pushed to this extent to exert my own pinnacle techniques. Compared to them, I still have the advantage of the Beast God conception!" While other heirs were arousing their pinnacle techniques using law comprehension, Luo Feng stimulated his by Beast God conception. In terms of the comprehension of the combination law, Luo Feng belonged to the intermediate level of the third stage, but his Beast God conception had already surpassed the third stage, reaching the threshold of the fourth stage! After all, Luo Feng's current Beast God conception was incredibly close to the 21st level of Heavenly Bridge. Therefore, Luo Feng had great advantages with his Beast God conception! Besides, Luo Feng's spiritual force amplification was also very strong and couldn't be considered a shortcoming. Still, Luo Feng couldn't help but sigh. At the beginning of the battle, before his willpower broke out completely, he had been at a slight disadvantage. In the end, his willpower—which was more incredible than most universe knights—had burst. If he were just a fighter, the benefits of strong willpower wouldn't have been obvious, but things were different for a spirit reader. Willpower was the commander in chief. Consciousness was the general. And spirit force was the soldier. The might of Luo Feng's willpower made his ability to control his spiritual weapon upgrade two levels, turning his unfavorable position into complete suppression over Cha Man Emperor. Cha Man Emperor flew over, looking at Luo Feng incredulously. "I have lost. Blade River, how did you…?" "I admit defeat, too," said Li Li Emperor. "There's no need to compete." Li Li Emperor sighed, shaking his head. "Blade River, you truly live up to your fame. We are convinced by your treasures as well as your strength…" They both felt rather bitter. As low-profile as they were, they were quite confident in their strengths, for they ranked on the middle-upper level in the land of inheritance, a place with numerous talents. It was obviously very difficult to improve once they had reached certain levels. In the aspects of willpower, consciousness, secret techniques, and godly force amplification, they had nearly achieved perfection. Yet they had still lost. Luo Feng had won in a landslide. It was only through the simultaneous outburst of two absolute advantages—my willpower and my Beast God conception—that I could overwhelm Cha Man Emperor, Luo Feng thought to himself. ****** On the distant Bauhinia Island, the core land of the Ancestral God School, the heirs who had sent Luo Feng invitations to fight were discussing this matter in small groups. They soon received their replies. "Blade River Emperor is just a sector lord, after all," said one heir. "In the virtual world, he must abandon every treasure he owns in the real world and rely on his actual strength to fight. Humph. Zhu Chong Emperor also yielded before, didn't he?" "It is estimated that hundreds of thousands of challenges to fight have been sent to him," replied another. "How many does he dare accept?" "Haha…" "Well—he has accepted mine." "What? He accepted? Lucky you. Perhaps he chooses the weakest ones to battle. Haha. But alas! He has also accepted mine." "I have also gotten his response. He has agreed to fight." On the open-air square of the World of Glory, numerous strong beings of other races were flipping through their black books. Every one of them had received replies accepting their challenges! "My challenge has been accepted," they said to one another. "So has mine." "Blade River Emperor has agreed to battle!" Soon, frantic discussions were heard in every corner of the open-air square. The heirs of hundreds of millions of races of the universe were left in great astonishment. "How many challenges has Blade River Emperor accepted? Probably tens of thousands!"
