Swallowed Star 2: Origin Continent - Chapter 26: This is Interesting
While Luo Feng was making his move inside the headquarters of the Blood Python Society, the outside world was in chaos.
A patrol team of the Huyang Guards, driving the mechanical treasure ‘Fire Yun Snake,’ arrived near the headquarters of the Blood Python Society.
A giant, fiery red snake twisted through the void and a booming voice spread out: “All cultivators, exit the ‘Earth Net’ area!”
The power of heaven and earth condensed into ropes, forming an Earth Net formation that surrounded the Blood Python Society’s headquarters.
The location of the Blood Python Society’s headquarters was not very good, far from being comparable to the ‘Chaos Armor Zone.’ Therefore, the caves here were very cheap, and naturally, the entire headquarters was very large, spanning ten billion kilometers in length and width.
At this moment, the Earth Net formation covered an area with a diameter of thirty billion kilometers!
“Retreat.”
“Hurry, retreat.” The cultivators of various races watching from afar quickly moved back, avoiding the range of the ‘Giant Earth Net.’ Morosa and Moyu Qingyan also retreated with the crowd.
“Master, this commotion…” Moyu Qingyan was a bit nervous.
Morosa watched carefully, ready to respond to any unexpected events.
At this moment, in the Tengjiao Legion, a massive plant suspended above the East Gate of Huyang City.
“Quick, quick, quick!”
“Close all Tengjiao hatches.”
The Tengjiao Legion, one of the top ten legions of Huyang, was urgently mobilized. The numerous True Gods who had been moving in and out along the vines saw the hatches closing and quickly leaped down.
The entire Tengjiao Legion began to operate, led by a top Eternal True God and over ten thousand Void True Gods, along with tens of millions of elite True Gods, all controlling this massive legion-type mechanical secret treasure, whose power was naturally terrifying.
The numerous True Gods who usually entered and exited were off-duty True Gods!
The on-duty True Gods, numbering in the tens of millions, could not leave their posts.
“The Tengjiao Legion, there is a confrontation happening at the Blood Python Society’s headquarters in Huyang City.” In the core cabin of the Tengjiao Legion, General Jiang Chengrong of the Tengjiao Legion was listening to the orders of the Supreme Commander Magili Xiao. “I have only one requirement: ensure that the confrontation at the Blood Python Society’s headquarters does not affect innocent outsiders! Anyone who harms the innocent will be severely punished! As for the life and death within the Blood Python Society? Do not interfere.”
“Rest assured, Commander Magili!” Jiang Chengrong smiled. “Anyone who disrupts the order of Huyang City will face the full might of our Tengjiao Legion.”
The virtual image of Magili Xiao displayed in front had four purple curved horns resembling a crown, and his face looked somewhat aged. Even as a virtual image, he exuded a powerful oppressive aura. He was the strongest existence among the five great families of the City Lord’s Mansion.
Jiang Chengrong, an Eternal True God from the Jiang Family of Jiugang Marquis, greatly admired and respected Magili Xiao. Magili Xiao was the strongest Eternal True God he had ever seen!
“Boom~~~”
The Tengjiao Legion was in action.
The Ten Great Legions of Huyang and the Huyang Guards were not restricted by the grand array of Huyang City, allowing them to traverse through the void directly. This meant that once the higher-ups made a decision and transmitted the orders, the legions would only take a little time to mobilize. The legion itself, traversing through the void, appeared above the headquarters of the Blood Python Society in an instant.
“What is this?”
Outside the headquarters of the Blood Python Society, cultivators of various races saw the immense plant that had crossed the void.
“It’s the Tengjiao Legion.”
“The Tengjiao Legion is one of the Ten Great Legions of Huyang City. The entire legion has been mobilized?” The observing cultivators of various races were very surprised.
“Ordinary conflicts that violate regulations within Huyang City or clashes between dark forces usually only involve the Huyang Guards. But this time, the entire legion is in action. It seems the internal conflict at the headquarters of the Blood Python Society is too terrifying! The Huyang Guards can no longer suppress it.”
“It must be the most terrifying beings within Huyang City fighting. We should stay farther away! Even the Huyang Legion might not be able to protect us.”
Many observing cultivators of various races controlled their flying boats to retreat billions of kilometers, still able to see the headquarters of the Blood Python Society from afar with their True God-level observation abilities.
Swish swish swish~~~~
The Tengjiao Legion hovered above the headquarters of the Blood Python Society, countless vines spreading out, completely enveloping the headquarters. However, these vines did not penetrate the small universe domain.
Obviously, they did not want to get involved in the internal conflict.
“I wonder who is fighting the Blood Python Society.” General Jiang Chengrong of the Tengjiao Legion overlooked the scene below. “During the day, countless tribes outside the city come to Huyang City for trade. After dark, all non-residents of Huyang City must leave.”
“During the day, it’s the busiest and most prosperous. The City Lord’s Mansion absolutely does not allow harm to innocent people.” Jiang Chengrong and his comrades were determined to uphold order.
For instance, the residences of the True Gods were absolutely safe, covered by a vast array that protected countless True Gods’ residences, prohibiting attacks by dark forces, allowing them to cultivate in peace.
During the day, in the bustling and lively areas, anyone daring to kill would be seen and recorded by many True Gods. With conclusive evidence, the City Lord’s Mansion had to take action.
Dark forces had to operate in secluded areas.
This was why the vast majority of residents dared not to pay the “residence fees” demanded by dark forces. The dark forces had limited members and dared not break the rules, so how could they manage the vast number of residents?
Only those residents who worked in the city or needed to act in the city at night would obediently pay the fees demanded by dark forces.
……
Luo Feng naturally understood some of the rules of the City Lord’s Mansion, and he would not break those bottom lines either.
After killing Vice President Lai Mo, Luo Feng waved his hand to collect Lai Mo’s corpse and his remaining staff weapon and other items.
Blood Python Society President Mu Yang watched calmly. Both of them had guessed the actions of the City Lord’s Mansion, but neither of them cared!
“Admire, admire,” Blood Python Society President Mu Yang praised, “Lord Luo He, your speed is incredible, nearly comparable to traversing the void over short distances!”
“No choice, Vice President Lai Mo fled too fast!” Luo Feng said.
The technique he had just used was one of the three great skills of the Broken Eastern River lineage, “Donghua”!
Vice President Lai Mo had fled from the beginning, and Luo Feng, distracted by dealing with the million poisonous insects, had to use the Divine King-level skill “Donghua” to completely eliminate Vice President Lai Mo.
“Lord Luo He,” Blood Python Society President Mu Yang said amicably, “You have killed both vice presidents and collected their remaining treasures. Could Lord Luo He perhaps stop now?”
“Stop?” Luo Feng was astonished.
“In this world, having one more friend is better than having one more enemy,” Blood Python Society President Mu Yang said. “The death of the two vice presidents is nothing. I am more willing to be friends with someone like Lord Luo He. To show my sincerity, I am willing to offer fifty thousand cosmos sand to Lord Luo He. Would Lord Luo He give me this face?”
“Be friends with me?” Luo Feng chuckled lightly, “Are you worthy?”
Blood Python Society President Mu Yang’s expression stiffened, his gaze turning cold. “I ask one last time, how did I offend Lord Luo He? Why must you take action?”
“You killed Diao Rong Yan,” Luo Feng said.
“Diao Rong Yan is mediocre among the Eternal True Gods. How can he compare to you and me? I killed him because of the survival of the fittest,” Blood Python Society President Mu Yang said.
“Accumulating resources through alchemy, upright and honorable, I quite admire that. But you dark forces’ Eternal True Gods are all scum! Hunting for prey among the weak, plundering the wealth of those True Gods and Void True Gods, you are the most despicable among the Eternal True Gods,” Luo Feng said. “All of you deserve to die!”
He truly thought so.
Whether being a servant, a butcher, or a miner, it was all upright and honorable.
The City Lord’s Mansion only charged True Gods a basic residence fee, everything above True Gods was free, and they also had to maintain city order. But the dark forces were bottomless in their extortion, even crazily hunting for fat sheep to slaughter and plunder.
Slaughtering all beings to nourish oneself.
Luo Feng naturally looked down on these Eternal True Gods of the dark forces.
“I understand.” Blood Python Society President Mu Yang nodded lightly, “But I need Lord Luo He to understand that no matter how despicable I may be, as long as I am powerful, I am still high and mighty.”
“The law of the jungle is the fundamental truth!” Blood Python Society President Mu Yang’s face, covered with black scales, was ferociously crazed. “I want to see just how strong you, Luo He, are to dare to come and kill me!”
In an instant, he revealed his true form, towering like a mountain, covered with dense black scales. With a slight flick of his scale-covered tail, time and space twisted, destroying numerous buildings around him. Many members of the Blood Python Society hiding in the buildings were affected and turned to dust in terror.
“No—”
“President!”
Many members of the Blood Python Society saw the massive black-scaled tail in the darkness and could tell from the aura that it was their president. They cried out miserably, but President Mu Yang didn’t care about them at all at this moment.
“Boom!” The Blood Python Society President burned his divine power, his eyes fixed on Luo Feng. His divine body instantly surged with a blazing blood-red aura.
“Die for me!”
A blood-red shadow slashed through the darkness in an arc, striking at the tiny Luo Feng.
Luo Feng stood still, clearly seeing the blood-red shadow, which was the massive scaled tail exuding a blood-red aura. The huge tail seemed to split the chaotic world as it slashed toward Luo Feng.
“Whoosh.” The terrifying scaled tail struck where Luo Feng stood, causing the ground to sink suddenly, but Luo Feng had vanished into thin air.
Using the “Donghua” technique, Luo Feng instantly appeared at the chest of the towering Blood Python Society President Mu Yang. His arm grew, and his hand, like a knife, stabbed toward Mu Yang’s chest. This knife strike seemed ordinary but contained the essence of the “Life and Death Blade” of the Nine Blades of Breaking the Realm. Luo Feng’s perfect divine body, having undergone one body refinement, concentrated its endless power into this hand-knife.
“Thud—” This hand-knife made President Mu Yang’s face change color. The scales on his chest dented and cracked under the terrifying power, causing him to fly backward.
“Armor-type secret treasure? Armor integrated with scales?” Luo Feng, aware of his strong divine body, confirmed that what he felt from that strike was indeed an armor secret treasure.
Whoosh!
Luo Feng instantly caught up with the flying President Mu Yang, raising his arm to slash down. It was like wielding a giant axe, carrying the essence of great destruction, slashing at Mu Yang’s shoulder.
This slash was the “Return to the Void Blade” of the Nine Blades of Breaking the Realm that Luo Feng comprehended!
After a century of seclusion, Luo Feng had temporarily mastered three of the Nine Blades of Breaking the Realm: the Life and Death Blade, the Reincarnation Blade, and the Return to the Void Blade. The “Return to the Void Blade” carried the essence of returning everything to chaos with great destruction. Luo Feng had quickly mastered this blade because he had the “Path of Destruction” of Morosa as a reference.
This blade was also the most ferocious and destructive of the three.
“Crack~~~” Despite being an Eternal True God of the tenth stage, wearing an armor secret treasure, and burning divine power, President Mu Yang still felt an unmatched force slashing his shoulder. His scale armor was directly slashed and cracked.
“My armor secret treasure was slashed open?” President Mu Yang felt a tremor in his heart. “Luo He’s hand-knife is like a full-force strike of the Huyang Legion using a legion-type secret treasure. I can’t withstand it even when burning divine power.”
President Mu Yang was the first to experience the explosive power of the perfected divine body at its peak.
Too fierce!
President Mu Yang even suspected that Luo He might be the legendary Infinite Divine Body.
“Boom!” As Luo Feng slashed through the armor secret treasure, he immediately pounced forward, clearly intending to tear President Mu Yang apart with his bare hands.
Suddenly—
Boom!!!
A massive blood-red hand appeared out of thin air, slamming into the pouncing Luo Feng.
The gigantic hand was so large, and Luo Feng’s figure was so small. With one slap, Luo Feng flew backward, crashing into the buildings at the headquarters of the Blood Python Society, shattering many structures and causing the hidden members of the Blood Python Society to wail in anguish.
“Hahaha, hahaha…” Luo Feng, who had been slapped away, stood up, his eyes full of excitement as he looked ahead. “Interesting, this is interesting.”
That slap really hurt! It made his entire perfect divine body feel the pain.
“I didn’t expect you to have a single-target mechanical treasure.” Luo Feng felt his blood boiling. The real excitement of this battle was just beginning.
“Everyone who has seen this mechanical treasure of mine is dead.” From the intense blood light came the cold voice of Blood Python Society President Mu Yang.
