Chapter 79: Hiring Divine Lord Luo He?

| Return to List |

“Divine Lord Luo He?” The colossal legion’s mechanical secret treasure observed the inconspicuous small cave mansion with some trepidation.

“Uncle-Master, the Sect Master has long ordered us not to touch Divine Lord Luo He’s cave mansion,” the disciple said.

“I know.”

Although the Heart Shadow Sect’s army appeared mighty and domineering, wantonly occupying one cave mansion after another, they had already thoroughly investigated the details of Huyang City before leaving Shiguo. They were well aware of the owner of each cave mansion in Chaos Armor District.

The mansion at Chaos Armor No. 913 had long been on their list as one that could not be occupied.

“I am the Pavilion Master of Yunbao Pavilion’s branch in Huyang City. Are you planning to invade my cave mansion?” Yunbao Pavilion Master, who had a giant single eye, angrily rebuked the disciples of Heart Shadow Sect.

A colossal mechanical secret treasure patrolling the sky immediately turned its gaze towards him.

A cold voice rang out, “Yunbao Pavilion Master of Huyang City’s branch, if you don’t want to die, get out quickly!”

Yunbao Pavilion Master looked up, exchanged a glance with the colossal mechanical secret treasure, and couldn’t help but tremble. He reluctantly lowered his head, “I… I’ll move out right away!”

With a wave of his hand, he collected some commonly used items from the cave mansion and took two old servants with him. He didn’t bother with the other subordinates and left alone.

The subordinates, frightened, quickly fled the cave mansion as well.

“I am Qiu Shisan, the Vice President of Qianshi Trading Company’s Huyang City branch!”

A stern old man looked around and said, “You want to invade my cave mansion too?”

“Vice President Qiu!”

A colossal plant-based lifeform descended slowly, speaking in a much gentler tone, “Please don’t make it difficult for us. If you continue to live here, you might get caught up in the conflict if a war breaks out. What do you think?”

The stern old man looked at him.

In terms of background, aside from the most exalted Yan Feng Pavilion, Qianshi Trading Company came next in Huyang City.

“We won’t disrupt Qianshi Trading Company’s business, but the Eternal True Gods of Qianshi Trading Company shouldn’t get involved in the war either.”

The colossal plant-based lifeform was still patiently persuading.

The stern old man understood that if the branch was destroyed, the headquarters might be furious. But the fact that their Eternal True Gods’ cave mansions were being invaded wasn’t significant enough to be reported to the headquarters.

Qianshi Trading Company’s business spanned multiple countries, and a large city branch was relatively insignificant.

Moreover, the Divine Kings backing Qianshi Trading Company were unwilling to get involved in the conflict between Shiguo and Yuguo.

“Fine, I’ll move out!”

The stern old man had no choice but to swallow his anger.

Luo Feng soon returned to the cave mansion with Morosa and Moyu Qingyan.

“Wow, it’s really lively!” Morosa stood on the mountaintop, looking around. With his strength, he was naturally unaffected by Huyang City’s formation and could see the situation in each cave mansion in Chaos Armor District.

“Heart Shadow Sect is frantically occupying cave mansions!”

Luo Feng also stood on the mountaintop, leisurely observing the surroundings. “Regardless of whether it’s local families, dark forces, or major factions with backgrounds, all their cave mansions in Chaos Armor District are being occupied one by one!”

“Master, they didn’t occupy our cave mansion!” Moyu Qingyan noticed the huge flying boats and colossal mechanical secret treasures in the distance, feeling very nervous.

Morosa sneered, “They may be arrogant, but they’re also smart enough to know who not to provoke!”

“Don’t brag, Heart Shadow Sect isn’t to be trifled with!” Luo Feng laughed.

There was no need for him to get involved in the struggle between Marquis Liu Yin and Marquis Jiugang!

For him, the most important thing was to grow. The three ancient rulers of Shiguo were his true enemies.

“Luo He!” Huyang City Lord used the transmission order to contact Luo Feng.

“City Lord is looking for me. What’s the matter?” Luo Feng took out the transmission order.

“Luo He, you’ve seen it too. Heart Shadow Sect has suddenly attacked Huyang City. Their strength is too formidable, and my City Lord’s Mansion is completely incapable of resisting!” Huyang City Lord transmitted.

“Lord Hou will soon dispatch forces to support us, but the most critical thing now is to defend the City Lord’s Mansion! The City Lord’s Mansion is the core of Huyang City.”

The three restricted areas were important; they were connected to Huyang City’s grand formation. But the City Lord’s Mansion was the heart of this ‘colossal mechanical city,’ capable of unleashing terrifying power.

Even with Heart Shadow Sect’s strength, attempting to forcibly attack the City Lord’s Mansion would result in some casualties.

“City Lord, how could I possibly withstand an entire massive sect on my own?”

Luo Feng transmitted, “My strength isn’t sufficient!”

“No Eternal True God in Yuguo could single-handedly resist the entire Heart Shadow Sect, but if you come to the City Lord’s Mansion, with your assistance, we can certainly defend it!”

Huyang City Lord transmitted.

“Hide with you in the City Lord’s Mansion?” Luo Feng transmitted, “I’m just a wandering Eternal True God; I don’t want to get completely involved. If I, an Eternal True God, get caught up in the struggle between Marquis Liu Yin and Marquis Jiugang, who knows when I might die.”

“You don’t need to worry. In the conflict between the two nations, the Chaos Overlords won’t bully the weak!”

Huyang City Lord transmitted, “As long as you’re willing to help, any conditions are negotiable!”

“Any conditions?” Luo Feng asked, “How about one billion Cosmos Sand? If you offer that, I’ll naturally be willing to help!”

“One billion Cosmos Sand?” Huyang City Lord was somewhat shocked. This Divine Lord Luo He was really greedy.

Such a vast amount of wealth could make even a Chaos Overlord feel the pinch.

Although Chaos Overlords had territories that provided a steady income, they also needed to support numerous subordinates, cultivate younger generations, and spend on their own cultivation. They typically didn’t keep too much in savings.

If one carried around a billion Cosmos Sand, it was already quite impressive!

Some Chaos Overlords, living rather frugally, had nearly exhausted their income, making it difficult to come up with a billion Cosmos Sand immediately.

“This price isn’t high at all!” Luo Feng said.

“I’ll report to Lord Hou first!” Huyang City Lord didn’t dare agree on his own. The bounty for Divine Lord Xue Yun was only ten million Cosmos Sand.

Three to five million Cosmos Sand was usually enough to hire the top Eternal True Gods in Yuguo to participate in a battle.

That was the normal market rate.

Of course, it also depended on whether the person had the time and was willing to come.

“You go ahead and report to Lord Hou!” Luo Feng said, then cut off the transmission.

“This price isn’t high at all. My strength is slightly stronger than the top Eternal True Gods in Yuguo!”

Luo Feng murmured to himself.

But only slightly stronger.

Although he had the Perfect Divine Body, Luo Feng only planned to display strength close to the limit of the Infinite Divine Body.

This was logically sound.

After all, there had been no practitioners of the Perfect Divine Body before on Origin Continent.

If he revealed strength far beyond the range of an Eternal True God, vastly superior to the geniuses of the two ancient nations, it would likely arouse the suspicions of some ancient entities.

“My strength must appear normal!”

“Logically normal!”

Luo Feng was very cautious. He bore the hope of revenge for his master Zuo Shan Ke, as well as the future of the human race.

His small universe alone was home to countless humans living and multiplying.

Of course, he had to be cautious, never letting his guard down.

“Master, almost all the surrounding cave mansions have been occupied!”

Morosa looked around, “Only the five great families’ mansions and Master’s mansion remain. Heart Shadow Sect truly acts tyrannically!”

“Marquis Jiugang won’t just sit back and watch,” Luo Feng said.

The original mansion of the Zhu Clan had become a temporary gathering place for Heart Shadow Sect’s high-level members.

The Sect Master and the Eighteen Elders were all gathered there.

“Sect Master, only the five great families’ mansions and Divine Lord Luo He’s small mansion remain in Chaos Armor District!”

An elder said, “Should we target the five great families’ mansions?”

“No rush!” The three-eyed man glanced at the Eighteen Elders, “We need to first pacify the two major threats within Huyang City—one is Yan Feng Pavilion, and the other is Divine Lord Luo He.”

The Eighteen Elders listened.

“Yan Feng Pavilion is a coalition of the most powerful forces of the Ancient Flame Kingdom. No matter how the war develops, we must maintain respect for Yan Feng Pavilion and not give them any reason to intervene,” the three-eyed man said.

“Understood!”

“Only a madman would provoke Yan Feng Pavilion!”

The Eighteen Elders were well aware that Yan Feng Pavilion didn’t interfere in the affairs of other nations.

But Yan Feng Pavilion was not to be challenged.

Those who dared to provoke them faced consequences far more terrifying than challenging the Nine-Source Great Saint.

Previously, provoking the Nine-Source Great Saint had led to the death of one Heart Shadow Sect’s Chaos Realm expert and the escape of two others, causing the decline of the sect.

If

they provoked Yan Feng Pavilion, there would be no escape.

The Lord of Shiguo might personally capture them and deliver them to Yan Feng Pavilion for punishment.

“I will personally visit Yan Feng Pavilion.”

The three-eyed man said, “Yan Feng Pavilion is the most formidable force in the city, and Divine Lord Luo He is the most powerful individual in the city. As planned, Elder Xin Yan will visit him!”

“Leave it to me!”

The blind elder calmly replied.

As one of the most profound in cultivation within the sect, the blind elder had mastered many legacies, making him far stronger than Divine Lord Xue Yun.

“Remember, do not make an enemy!” The three-eyed man looked at the blind elder.

“Don’t worry, I know what to do!” The blind elder nodded.

There was no choice. Among the Eighteen Elders, the others didn’t dare visit Divine Lord Luo He, fearing that a single misstep might lead to their death at his hands.

If they only sent a divine power incarnation, it would appear disrespectful.

So, the blind elder was the most suitable candidate.

When the Heart Shadow Sect was at its peak, ruling over three Chaos States, the blind elder had been the strongest Eternal True God.

After the sect’s decline, the blind elder had traveled across Origin Continent, continuing his cultivation, and his accumulation had deepened even further.

…

Soon, the blind elder, accompanied by two disciples, quietly arrived outside Luo Feng’s cave mansion.

“Chaos Armor No. 913!”

The blind elder looked at the mansion.

One of the disciples went to knock on the door.

As he knocked, an invisible ripple spread out, and the disciple spoke, “Heart Shadow Sect’s ‘Elder Xin Yan’ is here to visit Divine Lord Luo He!”

Soon, the door opened.

Moyu Qingyan smiled, “My master is waiting for you!”

The blind elder looked up, sensing the terrifying aura on the mountaintop not far away.

“It is indeed the Infinite Divine Body!”

The blind elder could feel the vast and boundless aura, seemingly infinite.

Every time he faced the Infinite Divine Body, the blind elder had mixed feelings.

He came from a humble background, initially cultivating through the bloodline path. Even though he gradually displayed his dazzling talent, his body was ultimately no match for the Infinite Divine Body. Despite the Heart Shadow Sect’s nurturing and the abundance of resources, his bloodline growth was still inferior to the Infinite Divine Body!

Monsters like Yutian Hu, whose bloodline-based divine body could rival the Infinite Divine Body, were extremely rare.

“So what if it’s the Infinite Divine Body? Those who fell to me included more than one Infinite Divine Body!”

The blind elder took a step forward and, in a flash, reached the mountaintop.

His two disciples quickly followed.

Luo Feng sat in front of the pavilion on the mountaintop, leisurely drinking wine, as he saw a blind man approaching with two disciples.

“Hmm?”

Luo Feng could sense the blind man’s restrained aura, hiding an endless sharpness.

It even made Luo Feng slightly uneasy.

“The hidden sharpness within him actually threatens my Life and Death Domain!”

The Life and Death Domain was an invisible domain formed by the integration of Luo Feng’s three Chaos Realm techniques of the Life and Death path.

“Xin Yan greets Divine Lord Luo He!”

The blind elder said, his two disciples respectfully saluting.

“I’ve long heard of Elder Xin Yan’s great name. Please, have a seat.”

Luo Feng smiled, “Qingyan, bring the wine!”
