Chapter 41: Shadow Cang, Luo Feng, and Morosa

The Chaos Armor Cave Mansion No. 913 was Luo Feng’s own cave mansion.

When he returned to the cave mansion, Luo Feng naturally relaxed. This was a common trait among most beings; returning home always brought much relaxation. Moreover, Luo Feng’s absolute confidence in his own strength made him very at ease.

“Rosa, come with me,” Luo Feng instructed.

“Coming!” Morosa happily followed Luo Feng, while Moyu Qingyan obediently walked towards the small building by the gate, tasked with keeping watch.

At this moment, neither Luo Feng nor Morosa noticed the hidden Shadow Cang floating in the air outside the cave mansion.

Shadow Cang was adept at stealth attacks and assassinations. When he hid carefully, he seemed to become part of the space itself. Even Luo Feng and Morosa, both highly sensitive to auras, failed to detect his presence.

“Hoo.” Luo Feng and Morosa were about to fly to the underground palace.

Just then—

“Hmm?”

Luo Feng’s expression changed slightly. A gray-robed figure appeared instantly in front of him, eyes like endless vortices staring at Luo Feng. At the same time, a sword shadow in the figure’s hand had already pierced into Luo Feng’s divine body.

Yes, at the moment Luo Feng discovered him, the sword had already penetrated his divine body.

“Die!”

In the face of Shadow Cang, the cave mansion’s formation was like a sieve. After all, this small cave mansion, along with its formation, only cost 500 Cosmos Sand. The formation could only slightly hinder an ordinary Eternal True God for a brief moment and was completely negligible against someone like Shadow Cang.

“The Huyang City formation is operating, space is sealed. Except for the City Lord’s team, other experts can’t traverse through space.” Luo Feng, upon being pierced in the divine body by a sword, was first surprised that the opponent could traverse through space. “But this assassin can forcefully traverse space, indicating a very high realm in spatial techniques.”

Huyang City’s space seal didn’t mean outsiders couldn’t traverse space at all; for instance, a Chaos Overlord could forcefully traverse space.

This assassin, being able to traverse space in Huyang City, showed his capability.

“Where did such a terrifying expert come from?” Luo Feng was somewhat puzzled. “Even if the Five Great Families wanted revenge, they couldn’t find such an expert in a short time.”

This expert’s methods didn’t align with any Eternal True God in Huyang City.

“Die!” Shadow Cang’s killing intent was intense.

This sword, after piercing, had a phantom sword shadow that went straight for Luo Feng’s ‘soul’ within the True God’s Heart, aiming to directly destroy it.

Simultaneously, this sword also unleashed terrifying power within Luo Feng’s body, a destructiveness beyond imagination. Even though Luo Feng had a Perfect Divine Body and had undergone secondary body tempering, he still crumbled and disintegrated under this terrifying power, a power that rivaled a Chaos Overlord’s ordinary strike.

This sword was a culmination of Shadow Cang’s achievements, attacking both the divine body and soul!

If either defense failed, one would die!

“The soul attack is average in power!”

The Star Tower guarded the True God’s Heart, and Luo Feng’s mental will countered the phantom sword shadow first! Having reached the peak of a Chaos Overlord in mental will and long honed by the Great Destruction Tempering Heart Technique, he was fearless of external attacks.

Boom~~~

Luo Feng’s mental will, like an unshakable blade, shattered the phantom sword shadow upon collision.

“Such strong mental will.” Shadow Cang was secretly shocked by the phantom sword shadow’s collapse. “But, my sword attacks both soul and divine body. Your divine body will still be annihilated.”

Usually, when hit, even if the soul could withstand it, the shock would affect it, creating vulnerabilities in the divine body’s defense. Even if the first strike failed to kill, Shadow Cang could usually finish with two or three more strikes.

“Soul attacks are insignificant.” Luo Feng, having been ambushed, felt the damage to his divine body from the sword. “But the damage to the divine body is strong. This sword actually destroyed about one ten-thousandth of my divine body.”

Luo Feng was indeed surprised.

As a Perfect Divine Body, his divine power reserves were immensely vast. To destroy one ten-thousandth of his divine body with one sword was indeed a fearsome attack.

“I have ultimately broken through to Eternal True God for too short a time. I haven’t even completed the three body temperings of the ordinary body tempering secret method, the Chaos Force Diagram, and my understanding of the Chaos Laws is still shallow.” In the face of this sword, Luo Feng immediately realized his own accumulation was still relatively weak.

He relied purely on the Perfect Divine Body to withstand it.

“Hmph.”

With a thought, Luo Feng summoned the domain of his small universe, enveloping the surroundings in darkness.

At the same time, Luo Feng extended his hand, instantly burning divine power. His arm expanded, and his hand, carrying unmatched might, crushed forward.

Facing this palm, Shadow Cang dared not confront it head-on. He knew this palm could penetrate the body of the ‘Purple Jade Howl.’ His own body strength was not as high as mechanical treasures, so he instantly transformed into mist, dodging Luo Feng’s terrifying palm.

“What a strange technique.” Luo Feng donned a dazzling golden armor, with brilliant golden wings unfurling behind him.

Six pairs of golden wings spread out behind Luo Feng.

Looking at Shadow Cang, the surrounding world gathered into a dense flow of chaos, the rich chaotic force filled the area, naturally suppressing and binding Shadow Cang.

“Mastering chaos?” Shadow Cang reappeared not far away. “His mastery of chaos is nearly that of a true Chaos Overlord. Under this suppression, I can’t traverse space.”

“And he’s unharmed after being hit by my sword?”

“Maybe he’s pretending to be fine. A few more strikes, and he might be dead.” Shadow Cang, experienced and confident in his killing techniques, was sure of himself.

His sword was a single-target mechanical secret treasure, the ‘Sword of the Realm,’ best at highly concentrating divine power.

Like the Wings of Slaying could concentrate and transform divine power, the Wings of Slaying’s power was formidable because Luo Feng’s perfect divine power was strong. Once concentrated and transformed, it could match the divine power of a Chaos Overlord.

Shadow Cang’s divine power was much weaker than Luo Feng’s. It was through the Sword of the Realm that he could concentrate it to near Chaos Overlord levels.

This sword had only one function, ‘concentrating chaos divine power,’ which made it worth over a million Cosmos Sand!

As for the killing move he used earlier, it was his own creation.

It’s common for terrifying Eternal True Gods to create one or two Chaos-level moves. When they create more moves and accumulate deeply in various aspects, they can hope to master the complete ‘Chaos Laws’ and become Chaos Overlords.

“Hmph!” Shadow Cang transformed into mist again, swiftly closing in on Luo Feng.

Luo Feng spread the Wings of Slaying, mastering chaos to suppress the surroundings. Shadow Cang couldn’t traverse space but still had superior flexibility and speed in flight compared to Luo Feng.

“Slash.”

Shadow Cang closed in instantly, his sword shadow attacking.

Luo Feng’s hands moved to block, and the Wings of Slaying spread out like blade wings, attacking. At the Eternal True God level, the blade wings were even more powerful than the Blood Shadow Knife.

Both hands and wings failed to touch Shadow Cang.

Shadow Cang’s sword moved unpredictably, seeming to traverse space even under chaotic suppression, occasionally leaving a sword mark on Luo Feng.

Each sword strike, though weaker than the initial ambush, still destroyed a significant amount of Luo Feng’s divine power.

“His accumulation at the Eternal True God level is profound, his moves’ realms higher than mine.” Luo Feng relied entirely on his secondary tempered Perfect Divine Body, burning divine power to charge recklessly.

But his moves were indeed a bit clumsy.

“The powerful opponents I’ve faced had realms close to mine. Failing the ambush, it was hard to land more strikes. This Divine Lord Luo He’s moves are crude; I can easily strike again!”

To be considered powerful by Shadow Cang, one typically had deep accumulation at the Eternal True God level, capable of creating Chaos-level moves.

Luo Feng had only created three out of six blades of the Nine Blades of Breaking the Realm at the Eternal level, showing his relatively shallow accumulation.

“If I had known his realm was so weak, I could have killed him head-on.” Shadow Cang thought. “In this short exchange, he has taken twelve of my strikes. His divine body should be nearing its limit.”

“Forget it, fighting you is a waste of my time and doesn’t help my swordsmanship.” Luo Feng suddenly shook his head and sighed.

The disparity in skill was too great; it was one-sided with no tempering effect.

Luo Feng waved his hand.

Rumble~~

A vast blood-red river spread out, instantly covering the entire cave mansion and Shadow Cang.

Luo Feng’s second mechanical treasure—the Life Blood River! It was obtained from the Blood Python Society Leader.

The Wings of Slaying and the Life Blood River, as Eternal mechanical single-target secret treasures, both contained Chaos-level moves.

Since his realm wasn’t enough, he used the Chaos-level moves within the mechanical treasures.

Only using one percent of his divine power to drive the Life Blood River was already vast, naturally beginning to suppress, bind, corrode,

and destroy Shadow Cang’s divine body.

“Why is this Life Blood River so powerful?” Shadow Cang’s expression changed.

Driven by Perfect Divine Power, the mechanical treasures in Luo Feng’s hands naturally unleashed immense power.

The Wings of Slaying’s ‘Mastering Chaos’ and the Life Blood River’s corrosion and destruction, under dual suppression, Shadow Cang felt the threat of death!

“Not good, I need to escape!” Shadow Cang instantly activated his escape mechanical treasure. Having taken on long-term assassination missions and survived until now, his ability to stay alive was extraordinary.

Swish!

In an instant, Shadow Cang transformed into a stream of light, tearing through the rolling blood river and breaking the chaotic obstruction, trying to escape.

“Such a waste of my time, all for nothing.” The fleeing Shadow Cang passed by the terrified Morosa and Moyu Qingyan in the distance, both hiding in the small building.

“Luo He only has two servants. They should die too.” Shadow Cang, always killing as he wished, naturally passed over the small building—

“Whoosh~~~”

Standing at the edge of the small building, the terrified Morosa suddenly opened his mouth wide, his mouth becoming incredibly large, occupying a significant part of the cave mansion, swallowing the escaping stream of light in one gulp.

“Get out of my way!!!” A furious roar came from within the mouth, as Shadow Cang fought back fiercely.

“Gulp.”

Morosa swallowed, grinned at Luo Feng in the distance, and said, “Master, he just happened to run into my mouth.”
