Chapter 1228: Extermination

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Divine Eye Clan, Purple Moon Holy Land, and East Emperor Holy Land had a total of eight universe masters launching attacks at the same time, all of them were blazing their godly powers, then either directly, or transformed into a roaring beast, a huge axe that could hack and shatter everything, countless threads entwined together… various attacking methods they deployed, all directed towards and enveloping Luo Feng alone.
“This detestable bunch of idiots!” Luo Feng was so angry that he was grinding his teeth.
Then, right away, his godly body trembled.
Hua!
Crazy Demon Extermination Godly Armor suddenly expanded. Soon after, it condensed into a beast god—a gigantic, single-horned lizard! It was just like Yin Tuo’s Golden Sulphone Armor and Five Chaos Master’s Crazy Demon Extermination Godly Armor, which could also transform into beast gods; their actual bodies would hide within the beast gods’ bodies. Usually, a protective armor that could expand outward and then condense into the form of a beast god was much more valuable than ordinary pinnacle palace true treasures.
“Roar!” The single-horned lizard let out a piercing roar. No matter how strongly the eight varieties of attacks connected with it, it did not show even a trace of damage.
“Divine Eye Clan, Purple Moon Holy Land, and East Emperor Holy Land!” the single-horned lizard roared with rage. “To think you all could be shameless to such an extent!”
The great beings from the Divine Eye Clan scoffed. “Shameless? What a great joke! With the impending doomsday, this precious Duan Dong River’s inheritance is our only hope for survival. For this inheritance, nothing we do could ever be shameless enough!”
A three-faced elder with eight arms from Purple Moon Holy Land sneered and said, “Luo Feng, you humans want this inheritance too? You are merely a weak little race with a single universe supreme master. How ridiculous!”
The single-horned lizard shot him a look of indifference. Weak? They must have been unaware of the power of Huge Axe Creator.
A cold, gloomy great being from the Divine Eye Clan glared at Luo Feng. “You think you can disregard us just because you have an armor treasure? Everyone, time to take action. Let’s exterminate this greatest threat in our way.”
“Sure.”
“Even if we don’t manage to kill him, we should ensure that he cannot focus on studying the Rhinoceros Emperor Game.”
Suddenly, the eight universe masters continued to besiege Luo Feng. Previously, they had stood afar and merely executed their techniques with their godly powers, so the might of their attacks was not very forceful. But this time, the majority of them were fifth-tiered or at least fourth-tiered universe masters. All of them were executing their killing moves—be they soul attacks or close-range attacks.
“Roar!” The single-horned lizard continued to roar furiously. “A bunch of bastards! You all don’t even dare to go through a round of fair comprehension.”
“What is fairness?”
“You weak human! You are not qualified to ask for fairness. You are too weak!”
“Haha! What a joke you are.”
Amidst all the jests and jeers, they rained attacks on the single-horned lizard without holding back whatsoever.
Hong!
The single-horned lizard reeled back and hit the sidewall, colliding with one of the stone pillars that sported a three-dimensional virtual shadow. This caused the stone pillars to tremble, but they were indestructible. Thus, the eight universe masters grew even more rampant in their attacks. Beneath their onslaught, Luo Feng was rendered helpless with no room for retaliation.
Crazy Demon Extermination Godly Armor, when expanded into a beast god, has extremely strong defense abilities! he thought. It is comparable to a pinnacle palace true treasure… yet its combat power is still at a fourth-tier standard. Out of the eight, six are obviously stronger than me, and I am only on par with the other two. The most terrible thing is that those two are not taking me on one by one—they are all ganging up on me.
Luo Feng was in a panic. He was sustaining the stability of the single-horned lizard by consuming his godly power. Although he was trying his best to put up a fight and evade their attacks, he was still being crushed. Amidst all this fighting, he had to ensure that he was maintaining the stability of the single-horned lizard. This alone, kept him distracted.
The efficiency of comprehending suddenly fell.
“Loathsome!” growled Luo Feng. “Duan Dong River is simply watching all this happen?”
Luo Feng was furious. He was also confused as to Duan Dong River’s true intention. For Duan Dong River to have made such a comment earlier on, it was as if he wanted to make Luo Feng a public enemy! The fact that Luo Feng had a relatively short cultivation time was well-known throughout Universe Ocean, and he was part of the first batch that went in to receive the inheritance for this round. When he had been at the magicube instrument, he had been able to make an impression on Duan Dong River, and he was also the first to successfully comprehend the 124th stage of the Rhinoceros Emperor Game.
Various factors were at play. How could the Divine Eye Clan, Purple Moon Holy Land, and East Emperor Holy Land watch while Luo Feng was about to receive that inheritance? Of course they would use their most devious means to stop him!
“Roar!” The single-horned lizard let out a furious roar, and four hooved feet suddenly stomped onto the ground as it dashed across the shadows and flew toward the other end of the passageway, where another group of undying godly spirits were.
“Not good.”
“Take cover, everyone!”
Those undying godly spirits all had a great shock. They were implicated in a battle between universe masters!
In fact, from the start of the siege, no one had yet to be annihilated because no one knew what rules Duan Dong River would impose. Since it was a one-time selection of candidates, Duan Dong River would most likely not want to see any killing among his candidates, which was why the eight universe masters made the smart move to control hold back while attacking Luo Feng. This was also why all the combat that had been going on did not implicate any of those undying godly spirits.
But now, Luo Feng had charged his way in amongst the group of undying godly spirits. Once the fighting started, even if efforts were put into controlling the situation, even a minor implication would most likely cause an undying fighter to face annihilation.
Peng!
A dazzling, heavy hammer appeared, seeming to fill the whole space between heaven and earth; it hacked the back of the single-horned lizard, causing it to buckle to its knees. Bouts of invisible waves were produced in succession, and the undying godly spirits who had already tried their best to escape at lightning speed were still implicated. Two unlucky ones eventually faced annihilation and were reduced to nothing but ash carried away on the wind.
Hu!
They were instantly dispersed upon annihilation.
“Dead!” The single-horned lizard took one look behind him.
“Two undying fighters have lost their lives!”
The eight universe masters laying siege against Luo Feng were also shocked. They temporarily stopped to observe the movements around them. Shadow Dust Master, Sorcerer Sprite Master, and Deer Bug Master also watched with great eagerness. The three of them had yet to intervene with any matters that concerned Luo Feng since the group of great beings had arrived. Since the three of them—representing the Divine Eye Clan and Purple Moon Holy Land—were the most hopeful candidates for the inheritance, the two groups of powers naturally would not be willing to let them take the risk.
There was silence for a moment. The single-horned lizard and the eight universe masters laying siege on it all watched, waiting to see if the deaths of the two undying fighters would arouse any action from Duan Dong River.
Chi! Chi! Chi!
Suddenly, from the stone pillars with three-dimensional virtual shadows—123 on the left and 123 on the right—there was an outburst of black and white lines. A total of 246 light rays were converging in midair in an instant. They transformed into a single beam that had a spirit of its own, swimming about like a water snake. This ray of light immediately swept toward the universe master from East Emperor Universe who was dealing strikes at Luo Feng with his huge hammer.
The ray of light ray extremely fast. It exceeded 100 times light speed, surpassing the limit allowable by the Universe Law.
Shua!
All the great beings felt a quick and forceful wave.
“Ah!”
A roar of reluctance was heard as that lofty universe master holding his godly hammer was annihilated, leaving behind some true treasures on the ground.
Hundreds of rays of light began to cover and wind about the godly hammer, the armor, and some other true treasures. Then they swiftly were sent to one of the nearest stone pillars with a three-dimensional virtual shadow. The godly hammer, armor, and other true treasures instantly disappeared into the pillar.
Silence resumed within the passageway. A long time later, hushed voices began to speak.
“Fog Creator Master is dead?”
“Fog Creator Master…”
“Fog Creator Master of East Emperor Holy Land Universe…!”
Every great being present was taken aback. Even Luo Feng felt a shudder in his heart. This was simply terrifying. Originally, he had thought that even if Duan Dong River were to mete out punishment, it would probably be something like deploying his monster-like subordinates, like Cuello. But much to his surprise, the numerous stone pillars along the passageway contained secret techniques, which could be activated even after their masters had been annihilated countless reincarnation eras ago. One strike, and Fog Creator Master was exterminated!
Fog Creator Master had been a special life-form that lived within East Emperor Holy Land Universe. He was skilled in techniques like the trapping of enemies, and furthermore, he was originally a living soul composed out of a mass of fog. Even after he had been condensed into human form, killing him was still extremely difficult. He had spent innumerable reincarnation eras cultivating his achievements in secret techniques, so even though he was just a living soul made up of fog, he was able to execute extremely strong attacks. In terms of power, he was definitely comparable to Primal Chaos City Leader! And in terms of the ability to protect himself, he was a notch stronger!
This life form had lived through incomparably long ages. He had been a being that could roam Universe Ocean without restraint. Even universe supreme masters found him to be extremely difficult to exterminate. And in a single stroke, he had met with annihilation?
“Horrifying!”
“This is just too scary.”
“Fog Creator Master is exterminated—just like that.”
Some of the weaker undying godly spirits showed fear in their eyes.
Luo Feng, on the other hand, discreetly let out a sigh of relief. Duan Dong River was indeed impressive. Although a thunderous technique would have probably been enough to frighten this bunch, Duan Dong River was vicious, executing instant extermination and plundering the treasures immediately.
“Previously, when we were laying siege on human form Milky Way, Lord Duan Dong River did not stop us at all,” said the gloomy and cold man from the Divine Eye Clan. “This time around, it must be because undying godly spirits were implicated, so Fog Creator Master had to die.” He added in an aloof manner, “So long as we do not implicate any great beings around us, we should be fine.”
“True. We were fighting for so long, yet he did not stop us. He did not punish us!”
“Let’s get moving.”
“We are the three groups of powers with the greatest advantage now. We must not let Luo Feng be the ultimate candidate to accept that inheritance. We must restrain him first. As for we three groups of powers, we shall just have to rely on each other’s abilities.”
“I propose that all undying godly spirits and universe knights temporarily go into the palace true treasure,” the gloomy and cold man said immediately. “We already know the rules. Now we just have to familiarize ourselves with how to play the game. Let them stay within the palace true treasure to work on comprehending the game first. This will ensure that they cannot possibly be implicated in any way.”
“Good idea.”
“I second that.”
The three groups of powers—the Divine Eye Clan, Purple Moon Holy Land, and East Emperor Holy Land—hesitated no longer. With the universe masters taking charge and all universe knights and undying godly spirits under their command, all were sent into the palace true treasure for the time being.
******
Luo Feng was in the form of a single-horned lizard as he stood where he was, looking at the other seven figures in the distance.
“Fog Creator Master is already dead! Do you all seek your deaths too?” The single-horned lizard let out a low growl.
A man from East Emperor Holy Land Universe whose entire body was surrounded with vines and green leaves retorted with a jest, “Fog Creator Master’s main body was annihilated, but he still has his other body kept alive! All of us surrounding you can divide our bodies. So long as we can destroy you so that you are unable to lay hands on the inheritance… does it even matter if our main bodies are annihilated?”
“That’s right. So long as this human is dead, our deaths are worthwhile.”
“I came here, originally, with no intentions of getting that inheritance. So long as I can remove all the obstructions in the way for my clan’s members to be able to get that inheritance, annihilation is worthwhile.”
The seven universe masters were all mentally prepared. If they were to be annihilated, they would do so most willingly—not to mention that they were willing to be exterminated in the passageway, which would only mean the extermination of their bodies. Their divided bodies would still be kept alive.
“You weak little human, dream on! This inheritance… You will never get it.”
Seven figures surrounded the single-horned lizard and charged toward it at the same time. They were all prepared and would rather give up their chance of comprehending the Rhinoceros Emperor Game just to ensure that they had this human under control—so that they could destroy him!
