Swallowed Star - Chapter 632
Rubbing the palm sized black metal in his hand, it was cold and slippery, almost like touching a piece of jade.
“Feng, do you have any clue just what this black metal is?” Xu Xin asked.
Luo Feng gently shook his head.
Since he had never seen this black metal, even within the huge inherited memories of the golden horned beast, he had seriously studied the f grade and g grade metals before. However there wasn’t such a metal within the memories at all.
“Babata, do you know about this?” Luo Feng asked within.
“I’ve already scanned it and the scan wasn’t able to get any information, there’s no way to penetrate it, this is a black metal I’ve never seen before.” Babata said with curiosity within Luo Feng’s consciousness.
Luo Feng suddenly used both hands to hold the board.
“He!”
His eyes gleamed and he fiercely used his strength…as a domain lord level 9 warrior, he could easily destroy a life planet! However his powerful force didn’t even have any effect on the small metal board. It was almost as though Luo Feng’s strength was like an ant trying to shake a tree.
“What a strange metal.” Luo Feng frowned curiously, “Let’s return home.”
Luo Feng brought his wife and left the treasure trove.
…
On the balcony of the bedroom, Luo Feng sat there silently, it was already about 3 or 4am in the morning, the moon shone brightly in the sky, the cool chilly night breeze blew through the windows.
“With my authority right now, I’m able to search for many mysterious items and materials in the virtual universe company, I’ve mostly seen everything once before. And within the golden horned beast memories, there are many other special metals etc, I’ve seen that too.” Luo Feng rubbed the black board in his hand, “However there’s no information on this at all!”
“There must be something.” Luo Feng’s eyes gleamed.
He was very clear.
Even though his position was high, just within humanity itself…There were many much higher than him. Even though his primal region member position seemed powerful, above him were the emperor level undyings, and his teacher True Yan’s authority, was even higher than the normal emperor level undyings.
And above him were the universe country leaders.
Anyway!
Even though amongst the 1,008 universe countries of humanity, he was considered higher up, it wasn’t the true upper echelon. The information he knew naturally was little.
“However…I can’t even find this in the golden horned beast memories. Then this metal must really be very special.” Luo Feng couldn’t help but stare.
It was a treasure.
A definite treasure!
“The engravings on this broken black metal board surface, why does it look so normal.” Luo Feng stared at it, with his vision, he could analyze things through the superficial level down to even the cell level! However, even so, he couldn’t find anything special.
“Since I can’t see it visibly, I’ll try using spirit energy to scan it properly.” Luo Feng’s thoughts moved.
Chichi…
Formless, colorless, incredibly thin gentle threads of spirit energy gently scanned the board.
“Hm?” Luo Feng’s expression changed, revealing a look of surprise.
“Haha! So its that way, it’s really special!”
Joyful surprise filled his gaze.
As he scanned it with his spirit energy, his energy threads didn’t go through the metal board at all, almost like air above it. It however scanned the interior of the board…and he could feel the many layers of obstruction.
“This metal has a definite effect of blocking spirit energy.” Luo Feng was incredibly excited, “However, my energy scan feels like it’s floating through air with this metal…maybe it isn’t a metal board, but a material that’s incredibly sturdy. Or maybe it’s a very special kind of metal! Anyway…I have to use spirit energy to invade it!”
“What’s inside?”
Luo Feng controlled his spirit energy.
Hundreds of spirit threads acted like needles piercing through the interior of the board, the many layers of obstruction, working hard at going all the way in.
After a while…
“hm?” Luo Feng’s expression changed slightly, he felt his spirit energy couldn’t go any deeper.
“I can’t pierce through?”
“I don’t believe this?” He squinted.
Within his internal world.
In the vast continent, that mountain range like golden horned beast raised its head and let out a huge roar, simultaneously the engravings on the 4 horns on its head lit up…
Natural ability strengthen!
It wasn’t simply strengthening the physical body of the beast, but even its soul…the soul within the core was strengthened too!
“Go!”
On the balcony, Luo Feng’s gaze was like lightning.
His earth body was currently domain lord level 9, and the golden horned beast was also domain lord level 9, since they were the same level, the soul within the core could withstand the strengthened spirit energy from within, his earth body wouldn’t crumble from the power!
If his human body was only universe level 9, he would be unable to use the spirit energy of the core.
As the difference was too huge, his human body would be able to take it.
Normally, if the difference was between 2 to 3 levels, the body could withstand it.
“Chi!” With the power of origin laws and increase in strength, Luo Feng immediately managed to pierce through even deeper into the black metal board.
Rumble…
“My child!” A faint resonating voice resounded within Luo Feng’s mind, immediately his consciousness was dragged into that illusion…
After a while…
Luo Feng’s body which was sitting on the balcony suddenly jolted, his expression struggling, he gritted his teeth and opened his eyes fiercely.
“Damn, I’ve never encountered such an illusion!” Luo Feng’s head was filled with perspiration, this was the most peculiar illusion he had ever come across, unlike the illusion techniques of humanity, they would normally be directed towards one’s heart and desires, character etc, making them fall in and unable to break free.
This illusion however…
Was one that purely bullied the person!
With that voice resonating, the many illusions that were created from it…As Luo Feng broke through one, more would appear. This resulted…in Luo Feng constantly breaking through the many illusions with more and more being generated from it, making him fall into an endless nightmare.
“I broke through close to 10,000 illusions, finally the endless illusions began to crumble.” Luo Feng took a deep breath, his spirit energy continued to search deep in the black metal board, suddenly words and information began to enter through his spirit energy.
After awhile, the words and information ended.
“Hm?”
“This is actually an inheritance storage item.” Luo feng rubbed the metal board curiously, “These words, are chinese characters, yet I don’t recognize them at all.”
Many chinese characters.
There were a total of 36,923 words.
It was a pity he didn’t recognize a single one.
“It kind of feels like ancient words from ancient china, yet it isn’t.” His consciousness calculation speed was shocking, he had some understanding of the mysterious ancient words of china, and the words from this board seemed like them, yet, wasn’t completely like it.
“Babata.” Luo Feng shouted.
“Hm? Found something?” Babata asked.
“Do you recognize these words?” Luo Feng found a complicated character from within, a total of 92 strokes and wrote it in mid air.
“This, this…” Babata was shocked, “This is a word from the Flame god race!”
“Flame god race?” Luo Feng was shocked.
He quickly searched through the memories of the golden horned beast and found some records of the Flame god race.
The flame god race was one of the trillions of races in the vast universe, a powerful race that shouldn’t be messed with.
Even though his inherited memories of it were very few, it strongly warned that they shouldn’t be messed with.
“Babata, how much do you know about the flame god race?” Luo Feng asked.
“When I was with the master, I had never even heard of them.” Babata said, “However, after you became a primal region member, as your assistant, I can definitely help search through the networks…hence…with your authority, I’ve searched up on lots of information and stored them within.”
Luo Feng laughed.
While he was training usually, Babata would be bored and thus study and go through information available.
“Tell me about the flame god race.” Luo Feng asked.
“The races that are able to survive in the trillions of others in the universe are all not to be underestimated.” Babata began to explain, “Of course, humans, bug clans, automaton, demons etc all belong to the pinnacle races. These races stand above the rest and have terrifying power.”
“Like the bug clan, it’s incredibly united, they think as one! And the powerful mother nest is able to create undying soldiers…”
“Endless armies of bugs, any mother nest can easily dominate a star field.”
“The automaton race, everyone of them is a living AI and the higher level they are, the more terrifying! Just their advanced weapons alone can be used to kill undyings…”
“Humanity, everyone of them can be trained and grown to be strong. Plus their numbers are huge…with that, they can produce many geniuses and nurture many absolute warriors that can dominate the universe.” Babata said, “Maybe in terms of one body, they cannot compare to the bug clan pinnacle fighters or the automaton pinnacle warriors, however they have huge powerful numbers!”
“Anyway!”
“The pinnacle races usually have 2 strengths, 1 is powerful force, the 2nd is that they have their own techniques like bug clan, automaton and human techniques.
Other than the pinnacle races, there are others that are small in numbers but still extremely powerful. Hence they have a definite position in the universe. Their position may be high or low!” Babata said, “A few weaker races have long become subservient or already been swallowed. The flame god race…is one of the powerful mysterious races.”
“They are few in numbers, hence the territory they own isn’t big.”
“And because they have many absolute beings, plus their territories isn’t too huge, hence even humans and the bug clans, the other pinnacle races do not wish to mess with them. They cannot bear the losses.”
Luo Feng nodded, from the inherited memories he had.
The races.
Could broadly be separated into pinnacle races, powerful races, normal races and weak races.
Humans belonged to the pinnacle races.
The flame god race belonged to the powerful races.
The golden horned beast race? It was slightly weaker than the flame god race, mainly because its numbers were simply too few.
1 elephant, compared to 1 hundred million ants, there was no doubt the ants were stronger.
“The character you wrote earlier was one of the flame god race.” Babata said, “They have a very ancient history, they probably existed back when the universe was first born, and this black metal board has actually been on earth for about 600 million years, from that, we can understand their history exceeds 600 million years.”
