Chapter 44: Chapter 41 Ying Cang, Luo Feng, and Morosa
Primal Chaos Armor Chamber No. 913, this was Luo Feng's own mansion.
When Luo Feng returned to the mansion, he naturally relaxed considerably. This was a common trait among most living beings; they would relax a lot when they came home. Moreover, his absolute confidence in his own strength made Luo Feng quite at ease.
"Luo Sa, follow me," Luo Feng ordered.
"Coming!" Morosa gleefully followed by Luo Feng's side, while Moyu Qingyan obediently headed toward the small building next to the main gate, as he was to guard the door.
At this moment, Luo Feng and Morosa had no inkling of Ying Cang, who was hidden in the sky outside the mansion.
Ying Cang, skilled in stealth and assassination, became nearly indistinguishable from the surroundings when he concealed himself, as if he were a part of space itself. Even Luo Feng and Morosa, who were extremely sensitive to aura, did not notice his presence.
"Huh." Luo Feng and Morosa were just about to fly to the Underground Palace.
It was at this precise moment—
"Hm?"
Luo Feng's expression changed slightly as a figure in a grey robe appeared in front of him as if teleporting. The figure's eyes seemed like endless vortices fixated on Luo Feng, while a shadow of a blade in his hand had already pierced into Luo Feng's body.
Indeed, at the instant Luo Feng noticed, the blade had already stabbed into his godly body.
"Die!"
The formation around the mansion was like child's play before Ying Cang; after all, the small mansion along with its formation was worth only 500 Cosmic Sand. This formation could only slightly delay an ordinary eternal true god for a short while, and it could be completely ignored in the face of an existence like Ying Cang.
"The grand formation of Huyang City is in operation, spatially sealed. Aside from the city owner's mansion's team, other powerhouses can't traverse the Void," Luo Feng thought in surprise as the blade pierced his godly body, "Yet this assassin could forcefully traverse the Void. His mastery over spatial realms is probably very high."
The spatial seal of Huyang City doesn't mean outsiders can't traverse the Void at all, such as the Primal Chaos Overlord who could forcefully do so.
This assassin, capable of moving through the Void within Huyang City, obviously had significant ability.
"Where did such a terrifying expert come from?" Luo Feng was slightly puzzled, "Even if the Five Great Families wanted to retaliate, they couldn't find such an expert in a short time."
This expert's methods didn't match those of any eternal true god within Huyang City.
"Die!" Ying Cang's murderous intent was biting.
After this stab, a phantom sword shadow directly targeted the 'soul' inside Luo Feng's True God's Heart, seeking to completely destroy the soul.
At the same time, this stab released a terrifying force inside Luo Feng's body, its destructiveness beyond belief. Even with Luo Feng's Perfect Divine Body and having undergone two rounds of body refinement, he was still collapsing and annihilated before this horrific force; it was comparable to an ordinary move of a Primal Chaos Realm master.
This stab was the culmination of Ying Cang's achievements, targeting both the godly body and the soul!
If either defense failed, death was certain!
"This soul attack isn't very powerful!"
Star Tower protected the 'True God's Heart,' while Luo Feng's Spiritual Will counteracted the phantom sword shadow ahead of time! His Spiritual Will, having reached the Peak of Primal Chaos Overlord and constantly honed by the 'Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique,' was not the least bit afraid of external assaults.
Boom~~~
Luo Feng's Spiritual Will, like an immovable blade, collided with the phantom sword shadow, causing the latter to directly collapse.
"What strong Spiritual Will." Ying Cang was inwardly shocked by the collapse of the phantom sword shadow, "But, my stab targeted both the soul and the godly body; your godly body will still be annihilated."
Usually, even if the soul could resist, it would be affected by the shock, leading to vulnerabilities in the godly body's defense. Even if one didn't die after being stabbed once, Ying Cang's next two or three stabs would usually suffice.
"The soul attack is negligible," Luo Feng thought as he felt the stab's destruction of his godly body, "But the damage to the godly body is quite severe. This one stab has destroyed about one ten-thousandth of my godly body."
Luo Feng was still shocked.
After all, as a being with a Perfect Divine Body, the reservoir of his Divine Power was frighteningly vast to be able to destroy one ten-thousandth of his godly body with a single stab was indeed a fearsome attack.
"After all, I've only recently made the breakthrough to eternal true god, and I haven't even completed three rounds of the standard Body Refining Secret Technique 'Primal Chaos Great Strength Diagram,' and my understanding of the Primal Chaos Laws is still rather shallow." Faced with this attack, Luo Feng immediately realized his accumulations were still relatively weak.
He was merely withstanding it by virtue of his Perfect Divine Body.
"Hmph."
With a single thought from Luo Feng, a small Cosmic Domain descended, and darkness immediately enveloped the area surrounding the mansion.
At the same time, Luo Feng stretched out his hand, instantly igniting Divine Power, and his arm swelled as his palm crushed down with an unmatched might.
Whoosh.
In the face of this palm, Ying Cang dared not resist, knowing it could penetrate the body of 'Purple Jade Gen.' He didn't think his own body was as strong as a Mechanical Flow Treasure, so he instantly transformed into a mist, flickering away and avoiding the terrifying palm strike from Luo Feng.
"Such a peculiar movement technique," Luo Feng remarked as a dazzling set of golden armor appeared on his body, and pairs of resplendent golden wings unfurled.
Six pairs of golden wings spread out from Luo Feng's back.
Luo Feng looked at Ying Cang as the forces of heaven and earth condensed into Primal Chaos Currents, rich and abundant Primal Chaos Power filled every space, also suppressing and constraining Ying Cang.
"Control Primal Chaos?" Ying Cang appeared not far away, "His control of Primal Chaos is nearly akin to that of a real Primal Chaos Overlord. Under this suppression, I can't even traverse the Void."
"And he was unharmed after being struck by my sword?"
"It could also be that he's pretending to be unharmed. With a few more strikes, he might die," Ying Cang, with his rich experience, was very confident in his killing moves.
```
His sword was a single-entity mechanical treasure, the "Sword of the World's Core", which excelled at condensing divine power to a high intensity.
Sha Wu Wings could also condense and transform divine power, but its formidable strength came from Luo Feng's overpowering Perfect Divine Power. Once condensed and transformed, it could rival the divine power of a Primal Chaos Overlord.
Ying Cang's divine power, however, was significantly inferior to Luo Feng's. It was only by relying on the "Sword of the World's Core" that he could condense his power to a level nearly on par with the Primal Chaos Overlord's divine power.
This sword had only one function, "Condensing Primal Chaos Divine Power", and because of this, it was valued at more than a million Cosmic Sand!
As for the killing move he executed just now, it was something Ying Cang had comprehended on his own.
It was quite normal for eternal true gods of formidable strength to devise one or two Primal Chaos Realm moves. Only when they comprehended many moves and accumulated deeper knowledge could they aspire to master the complete "Primal Chaos Laws" and become a Primal Chaos Overlord.
"Hmph!" Ying Cang turned into a wisp of mist and, in a flash, pressed in on Luo Feng.
Luo Feng's Sha Wu Wings unfolded, controlling the Primal Chaos to suppress the area around him. Ying Cang was unable to penetrate the Void, but his agility and speed in flight were still superior to Luo Feng's.
"Pfft."
Ying Cang closed the distance in an instant, with a shadow of his sword striking swiftly.
Luo Feng tried to block with his hands, unleashing Sha Wu Wings that lashed out like wing blades—a power at the eternal true god stage... possibly even stronger than the Bloodshadow Knife.
Despite his hands and wings, Luo Feng could not touch Ying Cang.
Ying Cang's sword was unpredictable and mysterious, seemingly traversing the Void even under the suppression of the Primal Chaos currents, occasionally leaving a sword mark on Luo Feng's body.
Each strike was less powerful than the initial sneak-attack move but still destroyed and obliterated vast amounts of Luo Feng's divine power.
"His accumulated knowledge at the eternal true god stage is too profound; his realm of techniques is higher than mine," Luo Feng thought, relying entirely on his Perfect Divine Body acquired from his second body refinement and burning his divine power, allowing him to crash through.
But his techniques were indeed crude.
"The formidable opponents I've encountered before were all very close to my own realm. After a failed sneak attack, it was hard for me to land additional blows. This Lord Luo He... his techniques are so rough I can strike freely!"
To be considered a formidable opponent by him, one generally had to have deep accumulations at the eternal true god stage, and might even comprehend Primal Chaos Realm moves.
Luo Feng had only deciphered three out of the six World Breaking Nine Blades moves on the eternal level, indicating that his accumulation was still relatively shallow.
"Had I known his realm was so weak, I could have killed him straightforwardly," Ying Cang thought. "In this brief engagement, he's been struck by my sword twelve times already; his godly body should almost be at its limit."
"Forget it, fighting you doesn't help my blade technique," Luo Feng suddenly shook his head and sighed.
When the skill disparity was too great and one-sided, there was no effect from sharpening one's skills.
Luo Feng waved his hand.
Boom~~~~
A mighty blood-colored river spread out, engulfing the entire cave mansion in an instant, as well as Ying Cang.
Luo Feng's second Mechanical Flow Treasure—the Life Blood River—was obtained from the Blood Python Association Leader.
Sha Wu Wings and Life Blood River, as eternal mechanical flow singular treasures, contained Primal Chaos Realm moves.
Since his own realm was not sufficient, he might as well wield the 'Primal Chaos Realm moves' inside the Mechanical Flow Treasures.
Merely using one percent of his own divine power to control the 'Life Blood River', it was already vast and overwhelming, covering Ying Cang and naturally starting to suppress, restrain, erode, and destroy Ying Cang's godly body.
"Why is the Life Blood River so powerful?" Ying Cang's complexion changed.
Under the guidance of Luo Feng's Perfect Divine Power, the Mechanical Flow Treasure in his hands naturally unleashed its formidable might.
The 'Control Primal Chaos' of Sha Wu Wings and the erosion and destruction of the Life Blood River doubled down to suppress Ying Cang, who then sensed the threat of death!
"Not good, I need to get out of here fast!" In an instant, Ying Cang deployed his escape Mechanical Flow Treasure. Having taken assassination missions for so long and still being alive, his abilities to save himself were extraordinary.
Whoosh!
In an instant, Ying Cang transformed into a streak of Liu Guang, tearing through the raging Blood River and breaking through the Primal Chaos obstruction, attempting to escape.
"What a waste of my time, all for nothing," thought Ying Cang escaping, as he flashed past Morosa and Moyu Qingyan, who were trembling in fear at a distance in a small building.
"Luo He only has two servants; let both the servants die," Ying Cang was always one to kill as he pleased, and his escaping light naturally swept across that small building—
"Whoosh~~~"
Standing at the edge of the small building, Morosa, with a terrified expression, suddenly opened his mouth, which became enormous, spanning half the cave mansion and swallowed the Liu Guang that Ying Cang had become.
"Get out of here!!!" A roar came from within the mouth as Ying Cang fought back frantically.
"Gulp."
Morosa swallowed hard, completely ingesting it; he grinned at Luo Feng from a distance: "Master, he happened to rush right to my mouth."

Thank you to the two Alliance Hierarchs for their rewards: Xiao Jinyu and Guan Fu.
