“Every race in the universe knows about your helper,” Fortress Master Fan Nuo said with a smile, looking at Luo Feng.

“Please wait a moment, I will ask him,” Luo Feng quickly added.

Fortress Master Fan Nuo nodded and waited quietly to the side, feeling a secret sense of anticipation in his heart. “It would be wonderful if I could obtain the desired treasure without a fight! After all, the fact that he could slay Venerable Tianchang, and several Universe Overlords had previously perished at the hands of that Golden Horned Beast, made Fortress Master Fan Nuo reluctant to initiate conflict easily.”

Luo Feng pretended to be contacting someone on the surface… but in reality, the Golden Horned Beast was merely one of his avatars.

Did he even have any new metals?

“Ah.” Luo Feng looked at Fortress Master Fan Nuo with an apologetic expression. “Fortress Master Fan Nuo, my friend says he has no metal on him.”

“None?” Fortress Master Fan Nuo pressed, “Is it that he’s unwilling?”

“My friend said he has none,” Luo Feng maintained his smile as he looked at Fortress Master Fan Nuo. “Then there’s nothing to be done.”

Fortress Master Fan Nuo nodded slightly and sighed with regret, “What a pity.” The moment his words fell, an overwhelming oppressive force suddenly radiated outward, while an endless emerald green light erupted. A massive vine, several kilometers thick, instantly enveloped the heavens and earth, plunging everything into a world of vines.

Boundless, entirely composed of endless vines, they permeated all surrounding space, completely surrounding Luo Feng.

“What a pity. I really didn’t want to resort to force,” an incredibly deep voice emanated from the countless surrounding vines.

“Fortress Master Fan Nuo!” Luo Feng roared in anger, frowning.

Fortress Master Fan Nuo, according to intelligence reports, possessed formidable strength and commanded three avatars. His other two avatars were also extremely powerful, with the strongest being the ‘B Xue Teng’ avatar, which was likely Fortress Master Fan Nuo’s true main body. B Xue Teng was an extremely rare specialized life form in the universe; only five were known to exist. Fortress Master Fan Nuo was one of them, having joined the Thorn Ring Alliance. The other four B Xue Tengs… belonged to other cosmic powers.

The life gene level of the B Xue Teng life forms was rumored to not be particularly high, only around a thousand times, but their size was immense, exceeding a million kilometers!

And they possessed the innate secret technique: Transplantation!

By means of Transplantation, this innate secret technique allowed Fortress Master Fan Nuo to possess two avatars whose life gene levels were nearly identical to his own, despite being smaller than the original B Xue Teng.

This meant……………

Fortress Master Fan Nuo alone was comparable to three top-tier Universe Overlords! This was also the reason for his extremely high status within the Thorn Ring Alliance.

“Luo Feng, tell your friend, that Golden Horned Beast, to hand over all the metal!” The deep voice echoed through the countless vines. “Hand over the metal, and I will spare your life; otherwise… even if that Golden Horned Beast can protect itself, it cannot protect you.”

“Golden Horned Beast?” Luo Feng smiled as he stood in mid-air, looking at the white vines swirling with endless emerald light. “You know quite a lot.”

“Hand it over or not?” the deep voice demanded.

“Hand it over or not?” “Hand it over or not?” “Hand it over or not?”…………

The question echoed repeatedly.

“I’ll let my friend answer,” Luo Feng looked to his side, where a cute, meter-long Golden Horned Beast suddenly appeared.

“Golden Horned Beast.”

A voice came from the vine world. “Hand over all the metal you carry, and I will leave immediately. Otherwise… this human, Luo Feng, is doomed! Answer me, ‘Hand over or not’?”

The Golden Horned Beast raised its head and roared, “Threatening me? In your dreams!”

“Hahahaha…” Luo Feng also burst into laughter.

The endless vine world fell silent for a moment, seemingly shocked that the Golden Horned Beast dared to refuse. Did the Golden Horned Beast have the confidence to protect Luo Feng? Simultaneously, Fortress Master Fan Nuo was surprised that Luo Feng could still laugh at this moment.

“Since that is the case, then death it is…” The voice had not finished speaking.

“You die first!”

The Golden Horned Beast and Luo Feng roared in unison!

“Rumble…” Endless golden waves surged out violently, immediately spreading in all directions. They permeated through the gaps between the countless vines. What looked like river water was actually a special energy domain transformed from burning Divine Power using the Nine-Dragon River Supreme Treasure. In an instant, it covered a radius of 30 million kilometers.

However, the B Xue Teng avatar of Fortress Master Fan Nuo easily resisted it.

“Big! Big! Big!” the Golden Horned Beast roared, looking up.

Swish!

The Golden Horned Beast began to grow rapidly. Meanwhile, the white vines swirling with emerald light started to wrap and attack the Golden Horned Beast, which was clad in the top-tier Supreme Treasure set, the Beast God Armor. Every part of its body was a weapon. It wantonly brandished its hooves and claws, amidst which countless golden secret patterns flowed… and streaks of golden light flashed.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Countless white vines were thrown aside, utterly unable to impede the Golden Horned Beast’s growth.

“He’s not even concerned about that human Luo Feng anymore,” Fortress Master Fan Nuo was astonished. At the same time, numerous vines transformed into streaks of emerald light and rushed toward Luo Feng.

Luo Feng, clad in silver armor and silver wings, smiled as he watched everything.

“Break!”

Luo Feng softly let out a cry. The wings behind him suddenly stretched tens of meters long, and as countless secret patterns flowed, they instantly transformed into dazzling golden wings. He was employing another secret technique he now possessed. Besides the Ultimate Secret Technique for Universe Masters, Luo Feng had also created an Ultimate Skill for Universe Overlords, which he named Mist Light. Using his wings as blades… Luo Feng was already intimately familiar with this, but now he was simultaneously wielding four Wing Blades! Moreover, the newly transformed Shi Wu Wings were in no way inferior to the Zhan Ming Blade in terms of offensive power.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh ~ Dazzling arcs of golden light resisted those vines.

Luo Feng stood suspended in the void, his massive wings sweeping, effortlessly blocking all attacks. In just a few seconds… all the vines completely vanished.

Of course, this wasn't due to Luo Feng’s true Earthling body, but because of the Golden Horned Beast!

“Big! Big! Big!”

Shading the sky and covering the earth!

This was the Golden Horned Beast! A towering Golden Horned Beast, definitely exceeding a million kilometers in length, stood in mid-air, entirely black, exuding an infinitely ferocious aura. It must be known that the amplification secret technique, Myriad Forms of the True Body………… after reaching the third level of perfection, allowed for extreme growth or shrinkage.

For an ordinary Golden Horned Beast, reaching one hundred thousand kilometers was the limit. But Luo Feng’s normal divine body was over ninety thousand kilometers long! Even if he only magnified himself by 36 times, he would be millions of kilometers long. As long as the divine body did not exceed a certain limit, his combat strength would not be affected.

With the Golden Horned Beast being so massive, it naturally overwhelmed the B Xue Teng, preventing it from enveloping him any further.

A beast a million kilometers long faced off against the B Xue Teng, which was a million kilometers in diameter.

The two stood opposed from a distance.

Luo Feng also stood atop the Golden Horned Beast’s head and observed from afar. He saw that all the distant, endless vines extended from a single Deep Cyan Fortress. Clearly, the core of the B Xue Teng was completely hidden within that fortress, and countless vines emerged from the fortress’s exits.

“Luo Feng… it seems the universe’s alien races misjudged you. You already possess the strength of a Universe Overlord… Have you advanced to the Universe Venerable level?” Above the countless vines, a figure also stood—it was the giant man, Fortress Master Fan Nuo.

Fortress Master Fan Nuo stood above the B Xue Teng.

Luo Feng stood above the Golden Horned Beast.

“Think whatever you like,” Luo Feng said lightly.

“Hand over the metal, and I will let you leave,” Fortress Master Fan Nuo commanded. He was actually starting to feel a sense of dread, glancing involuntarily at the colossal Golden Horned Beast exuding a ferocious Beast God aura. This Golden Horned Beast gave him a feeling incredibly close to the Beast God of Metal; even the subtle essence was very similar.

Furthermore, the secret technique the Golden Horned Beast displayed earlier made him highly vigilant. While the secret technique Luo Feng used with his wings was formidable, it was clearly inferior to the Golden Horned Beast’s.

“Fortress Master Fan Nuo, you seem quite confident?” Luo Feng looked at Fortress Master Fan Nuo. “In my opinion, you should leave quickly.” Considering Fortress Master Fan Nuo possessed a flying fortress and a divine body millions of kilometers long, Luo Feng truly had no desire to fight.

“The siege attacks from my B Xue Teng avatar’s countless vines are just very ordinary attacks, not my strongest secret technique,” Fortress Master Fan Nuo shouted. “The B Xue Teng avatar is sufficient to entangle that Golden Horned Beast, and I can kill you.”

“I don’t believe it.”

Luo Feng in the distance merely smiled casually.

This infuriated both Fortress Master Fan Nuo and the giant B Xue Teng. With a heaven-shaking roar, a magnificent green world instantly enveloped the surrounding several thousand kilometers, and then it clashed with the golden river of the Nine-Dragon River. It was clearly also a domain-type Supreme Treasure! Judging by its might, it should be an ordinary Supreme Treasure.

“Battle!” Fortress Master Fan Nuo and the B Xue Teng attacked simultaneously.

Boom! Fierce vines intertwined. The countless vines transformed into eight massive vines, each thousands of kilometers thick, resembling eight giant whips… They turned into dazzling emerald whip shadows, sweeping across the heavens and earth, lashing out toward the Golden Horned Beast!

Roar~ The Golden Horned Beast lowered its head and charged forward.

Luo Feng retreated and stood suspended in mid-air.

“Luo Feng, you are courting death yourself!” Fortress Master Fan Nuo flew over directly.

Luo Feng instantly drew the Zhan Ming Blade from behind him, facing the approaching Fortress Master Fan Nuo.

Hoo! Fortress Master Fan Nuo produced a huge divine whip in his hand. The whip was covered in ancient, countless secret patterns, and driven by his burning divine power, he lashed out directly at Luo Feng.

Whoosh!

A hazy golden light flashed. Luo Feng was executing the Universe Overlord Ultimate Skill, Mist Light. Regarding the two secret techniques he created, one for the Universe Master Ultimate Secret Art named Golden Light, and the Universe Overlord Ultimate Skill named Mist Light, it could be seen that Luo Feng’s transformation after cultivating for one hundred and eighty million years was reflected. Back when Luo Feng first created a peak ultimate skill, he was extremely expectant, and he pondered endlessly over the name. But now that the mysteries of the universe had revealed some of their secrets before Luo Feng, he named the ultimate skill very casually. Representing the ‘Path of the Beast God of Metal,’ it was simply named Golden Light.

The two forces collided!

Luo Feng was sent flying backward, followed immediately by a continuous barrage of whip shadows. Luo Feng used the Zhan Ming Blade and the Shi Wu Wings to defend, but the power of the whip shadows was too immense. Despite Luo Feng’s strenuous defense, they still struck the Divine Body Tribulation Armor on him. However, with the protection of the Tribulation Armor… Luo Feng was able to withstand it completely.

“This is bad,” Fortress Master Fan Nuo, though overpowering Luo Feng momentarily, watched in horror at the distance. The B Xue Teng avatar could no longer hold on; all its vines retracted into the Black Fortress, transforming into streams of light and beginning to flee.
