Swallowed Star

The Mosha godly body was small. The purity of its godly power was low, and it did not own any true treasure. Even if a Mosha body had been sacrificed, the godly bodies of Golden Horned Beast and the original earthling body could easily recover this minuscule loss by breathing for a short moment. That was the reason why, for the past 30 years, Mosha body was stationed at the external domain of Tilted Peak Sector to deal with areas that involved uncertainties.

Going through the bright screen…

Hua!

“Huh?” Mosha body looked ahead, feeling confused. It was still a tunnel ahead of him, and there was a new bright screen. “Two layers of the bright screens? The three most dangerous lands are the scariest places of Universe Ocean. Unique situations will only arise under certain extremely unique regions.” Mosha body was confused. “Now, there are two bright screens in a row… What could possibly be in there?”

Sou!

Moving forth with agility, he easily passed through that bright screen. The screens on their own would not be able to obstruct the way of intruders… but they could cause all sorts of exploration, even those by godly powers, to fail.

“My god! A third layer of the bright screen?” Mosha body was in great shock.

He continued drilling! The fourth layer! The fifth layer! The sixth layer!

Mosha body was in total shock by then. From the information regarding Tilted Peak Sector, Flowing Countless Mountains, and Universe Boat that the human race had provided, there were descriptions of scenarios of scary true treasures being born. And also, records of scenarios involving the birth of supreme true treasures. But of course, every scenario was different.

There was a total of twelve records on bright screens, of which three were related to true treasures and nine were related to rare treasures. The former three scenarios about true treasures involved a pinnacle true treasure with one layer of the bright screen, a superb pinnacle true treasure with three layers of the bright screens, and a superb pinnacle true treasure with three layers of the bright screens, respectively.

“The seventh layer, the eighth layer… There is… There is actually a ninth layer! A great hidden treasure. This is definitely a super, great hidden treasure. If a great being told me that there was a supreme true treasure within it, I would believe without a doubt!” Mosha body was worked up as he looked at the ninth layer of the bright screen before him. “Judging by the way the Shi Wu Wings put up such a crazy struggle in their efforts to fly into this cave, it is possible that there is another component of Shi Wu Wings inside…”

“Even if it was a component of a supreme true treasure, it would not possibly be so overwhelmingly powerful. It would not be able to wield nine layers of the bright screens.”

Mosha body did not know what to make out of the situation.

Luo Feng was filled with confusion. Firstly, that missing component did not fly out on its own. Secondly, the beckoning was intense. It far surpassed the time when he first encountered Flowing Light Wings. Thirdly, nine layers of the bright screens was unbelievable.

“Could it be that in there is not only a component of Shi Wu Wings, but also another true treasure? For instance, a supreme true treasure?”

Mosha body tried to suppress the many thoughts running through his mind. When it came to hidden treasures, if one held on to overly beautified expectations, the greater the disappointment would be; reality could, at times, be very cruel.

“Whatever. I shall find out for myself.”

Hua!

He drilled passed the ninth layer of the bright screen easily.

“This is—!”

The moment Mosha body passed the ninth bright screen, he realized that the surroundings had become an incomparably gigantic dazzling space. Mosha body still had a fleeting moment to make some quick, careful observations before numerous gigantic dazzling rays swept pass him like blades. Then he felt excruciating pain coursing through his entire being.

Peng!

Mosha Body was annihilated in an instant.

******

Luo Feng was in the cave, outside of the first bright screen.

“What the hell is this?” Luo Feng blinked his eyes in disbelief, completely taken aback. “This—this… My Mosha body is, at the very least, a universe knight, yet this was enough to annihilate a universe knight within an instant. He was not allowed any time to think at all. What an extremely frightening attack. It was comparable to the attack by a universe master.”

Luo Feng pondered a bit.

“I shall try again!”

The next moment, another Mosha body appeared beside him. Like a flash of light, it once again made its way past the bright screen before them.

******

Before the ninth bright screen, Mosha body gritted his teeth.

“The moment I enter, I shall execute my talent technique Domain. That will be able to keep me alive for a short period of time. I shall see for myself just what treasures there are in this land of hidden treasures—to be able to enshroud the surroundings with such a fearsome power.”

Hua!

In a split-second, he had drilled his way past the ninth bright screen, and the moment he entered, he executed his talent technique Domain. Within that immeasurably vast space, Mosha body had completely conformed to an area of 10,000 kilometers.

Hong!

Countless mighty rays swept across everything like sharp blades. In this vast space, “Universe Space” itself had become an endless stream of particles. Not long after Mosha body had transformed into Domain, he felt the impact of the earth-shattering power that attacked him, annihilating him in an instant.

******

Luo Feng stood frozen before the first bright screen deep within the cave, too stunned for any reaction. The next instant, his eyes lit up.

“Heaven-destroying and earth-shattering! This destroys everything within the universe space! Time and space constitute the Universe. My Mosha body executed its talent technique, Domain, but was still unable to survive. This is utterly…”

Luo Feng was greatly fearful as the realization dawned upon him, but at the same time, deep within his heart, he felt a surge of immeasurable ecstasy. Hidden treasures were absolutely the utmost, greatest, top-tier hidden treasures, and it was highly possible that a supreme true treasure was hidden within them!

The so-called “force-breaking method”! All laws in the face of such an absolute power would have to retreat.

It was just like how universe supreme beings could ensure that their orders, once given, would be strictly enforced. Even the origin of the primal universe would temporarily retreat from the battle without a fight! Similarly, the power unleashed by a supreme true treasure could form an absolute domain for a certain area, and all laws pull back and no longer exert any influence within this domain. Within this domain, even universe masters might be annihilated.

“The mysterious land beyond the ninth bright screen… is already so powerful that it can destroy time and space. Force breaking method! I suppose it would be something on the level of universe supreme masters and supreme true treasures.”

Luo Feng revealed a trace of glee. There was not a hint of fear, only excitement and happiness. The stronger, the better. Its strength represented the fact that this treasure was undoubtedly fearsome. Luo Feng was not at all worried that he would not be able to get that treasure.

“I have Blood Cloud Palace and Star Tower with me,” Luo Feng said to himself. “Blood Cloud Palace is a flying palace type true treasure. It was extremely powerful and was best in defense against material attacks. Even if universe supreme beings dealt a full blow with all their might, they would not be able to destroy Blood Cloud Palace. Even the power dispersed by a supreme true treasure would not be able to easily annihilate a top-tier flying palace true treasure.”

This was common knowledge. With a top-tier flying type true treasure, one could run rampant within the Universe Ocean. But Luo Feng was unaware that, before him, Imperial Master of Divine Eye clan had tried to intrude the same region as he did now—while hiding within a top-tier palace type true treasure. Imperial Master had tried to intrude by flying in while hiding in his palace type true treasure… and he had come to a tragic end.

“Blood Cloud Palace and Star Tower, especially Star Tower, are supreme true treasures,” Luo Feng said to himself. “Based on what Teacher said, there is not a place in the three most dangerous lands that would be able to cause damage to my supreme true treasures. But, before I enter, it is always better to first understand the situation inside well.”

I don’t believe that the blade-rays that tore my Mosha body apart could be so pervasive a presence, Luo Feng thought.

Previously, Mosha body had been annihilated twice without a glimpse of the actual situation inside. It only knew that the dazzling blade-rays sent him to his doom.

******

Shua!

Mosha body intruded once again. As expected, it was met with the sweeping strokes of those mighty, endlessly dazzling blade-rays to be annihilated within a split-second right away.

The third time, followed by the fourth, then the fifth…

“I shall try 100 times if that’s what it takes. I don’t believe that I will end up being annihilated every single time.”

Luo Feng was not someone who took risks easily. Star Tower might be powerful enough to keep him safe, but that only represented the fact that Star Tower was able to ward off material attacks. In the information provided by humans, there were more than a handful of records of such dangerous lands where even Star Tower would not be able to escape if it fell in.

Getting Mosha body to die repeatedly was a way to gather more information. It was out of safety considerations. As for Mosha body, even if it had to be annihilated 100 times, the godly power that it consumed would only require a short moment for the original earthling body and Golden Horned Beast body to bring it to recovery.

Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua!

It was being annihilated insanely and repeatedly. Every single time, he would come to face with a high-frequency, mighty, and endless storm of blade-rays and be annihilated in an instant.

The 39th time, Mosha body intruded all over again.

“Ha!”

Mosha body was elated to see that the gigantic and endlessly dazzling blade-rays had gathered into a “storm.” This boundless storm surrounded him all around, but it did not touch him at all, albeit momentarily. Mosha body immediately scanned his surroundings, speedily observing everything inside.

Not even a millionth of a second! But with the speed of Luo Feng’s consciousness, he could get a clear view of the scene.

This was an incomparably vast space; amidst the pitch-black space, there was a chaotic flow of countless rolling particles, and that endlessly dazzling blade storm swept everything in the surroundings. The area was so wide that one sweeping look around would be measured in light years! Within this vast space, the most dazzling sight was something far away—

It was gigantic….

It left Luo Feng completely at a loss for words…

Wings! Endlessly tall and trillions of times more dazzling than the sun!

The two outspread wings were infinitely huge. The dazzling rays of those white wings gave out a power that was so strong that even from high up, Luo Feng could feel the terrifying power bringing his consciousness to a standstill within a split-second. Shortly after—

Hong!

Mosha body was swept up and strangled to death by the blade storm.

******

Deep within the dark, winding cave, outside the first layer of the bright screen, Luo Feng stood rooted to the same spot. His mind was filled with that soul-shaking scene…

It was an endless pair of wings trillions of times more dazzling than the sun. He felt like it was a pair of incomparably huge light wings. The sense of superiority they exuded gave Luo Feng the feeling of being subjugated.

“Wings? A pair of wings? This mysterious land is actually a pair of wings?” Luo Feng was dumbfounded. “Could it be that this terrifying pair of wings makes up a component of my Shi Wu Wings? Is that possible? This… Is this possible? You’ve got to be kidding me!”

Luo Feng had seen many kinds of true treasures. Even supreme true treasures were not novel sights to him. He himself owned a supreme true treasure, Star Tower. Star Tower was extremely powerful. Its swallowing capacity alone could form the nine whirlpool nebulas, which was considered very powerful. As for the true power of Star Tower, even Luo Feng was unclear; after all, Star Tower had always stayed in silence in the outer domain of space. He only knew that the four pinnacle races once fought and killed one another over it. Many universe supreme masters had come forth to vie for it, but none had succeeded.

“Those dazzling, huge light wings must be a supreme true treasure. It must be! With such strong powers, if it is not a supreme true treasure, then something must be wrong. And judging from that extremely crazy blade storm, this must belong to an attack-type supreme true treasure.”

Luo Feng was overflowing with excitement, which was understandable. Any super great being within the universe would be equally excited if he could lay hands on such a supreme true treasure.

Shortly after, endless confused thoughts started surging into Luo Feng’s mind. He could not help frowning.

Very strange. Through the endless storm, he thought he had vaguely seen or even concluded that the wings likely did not have a Master. Yet they did not fly over to him out of their own accord. The Shi Wu Wings he was wearing wanted to fly over instead…

“Is it really a component?” Luo Feng muttered under his breath. “Two of my wings put together would, at most, be at the top-tier true treasure level. That one pair of wings is already so strong on its own. Besides, how could a mere component of a supreme true treasure be so powerful?”
