People are devoured and become Luo Feng's golden finger

Chapter 225 Condensing Yuan Armor; Yaksha and Evil Spirits Attack (6k-word long chapter, please vote)
"Captain, be careful of this guy's last-ditch effort."

Seeing that the sword energy puppet array controlled by Babata and the divine arrows of Lydia's laws were constantly annihilating the divine body of the Fear Golden Hou, its aura gradually weakened.

Nien, whose punch was a kilometer long and had completely annihilated the blue giant wolf at the World Lord level, hurriedly sent a telepathic warning.

Nien's concerns were not unfounded. Once the Golden Hou realized that it could not escape the array prison and would surely die, it would undoubtedly self-destruct its divine body to take someone down with it.

The Golden Hou's strength is approaching that of an ordinary peak immortal, and with its massive divine body spanning tens of kilometers, its self-destruction at close range could absolutely annihilate an ordinary high-level immortal with a relatively small divine body.

Lydia meets both of these conditions perfectly; if she doesn't have any trump cards up her sleeve, she's basically doomed.

Lydia, a veteran of countless battles, was naturally aware of Nien's concerns, so she remained vigilant and kept her distance from the Golden Roc, using ranged divine arrows to wear it down.

In addition, with 810,000 E9-class metal golems relentlessly hindering the Golden Hou, she is still quite safe for the time being.

The self-destruction, occurring more than ten million kilometers away, would at most severely damage her divine body.

"Roar!"

As the Fearful Golden Hou noticed the successive deaths of its demon teammates, it grew increasingly agitated and furious.

It fears that once the nine powerful human realm lords are no longer restrained and they all come together to attack it from outside the array cage, it will have no hope of escaping.

A ferocious glint flashed in the golden eyes of the Fearful Golden Hou. With a single claw, it twisted and destroyed hundreds of E9-level metal golems. Its divine body withstood the bombardment of countless metallic sword energies and charged towards Lydia, who was now a great distance away from it.

Lydia, who was constantly watching the Golden Hou's movements, did not hesitate for a moment and immediately increased the distance.

As immortal deities who achieved their status through the laws of light, they are naturally skilled in speed. Moreover, the wings of the Dream Winged Clan are not just for show; they can enhance the power of the laws of light, causing their speed to increase even further.

Like a white aurora, just as the Golden Hou approached within five million kilometers, Lydia instantly spun around and widened the distance to seven million kilometers, making the two even more distant.

However, Lydia quickly realized something was wrong, because the Golden Roc did not pursue her anymore. Instead, it did not brake and directly approached the edge of the light pillar wall sealed by the array. It raised its giant claw, and the golden claw, several kilometers long, directly separated from the divine body and emitted a dazzling light.

"Oh no! This guy is planning to self-destruct part of his divine body to break the formation and escape!" Lydia reacted instantly, letting out a soft shout. The Immortal Divine Bow in her hand, made with some G-grade metal, burst forth with pure white light, and a thick divine arrow condensed, shooting straight at the Terror Golden Hou.

"Want to run? It's not that easy."

Babata glared, and a waterfall of data cascaded from his silver pupils as he roared.
"The second move of the Taibai Golden Sword Formation, the Heavenly Gang Sword!"

With a thought, Babata instantly manipulated the energy within the 810,000 metal puppets, which, as if connected by tiny nodes, quickly formed 81 golden divine swords.

As of now, the battle has destroyed over 100,000 metal golems, but Babata has stored a total of one million metal golems. Once the number of metal golems destroyed falls below 810,000, they will rush out from the internal space of the golden giant sword to replenish the supply, thus maintaining a full complement of golems.

There's no way around it; we're rich, so we don't lack puppets.

The eighty-one golden divine swords seemed to vanish into the void, instantly appearing around the Fear Golden Hou, and then mercilessly piercing and cutting through its tough body.

When Lydia's massive white arrow, imbued with all her might, arrived, the Golden Roc's divine body was already shattered into pieces, a truly gruesome sight.

Although it looked terrible, the Golden Hou's aura hadn't actually decreased by more than five percent. Although it wasn't immortal and its divine power was more easily annihilated, its divine body was enormous.

The larger the divine body, the higher the margin for error. If it were a human of equal strength, they would probably have been severely injured by now.

boom!
The white arrows that followed struck the shattered divine body of the Golden Horde, causing a violent explosion that instantly annihilated a large portion of the Golden Horde's divine body.

The fundamental laws of light are inherently adept at purification, and this was Lydia unleashing a full-force attack using her secret techniques, making it naturally incredibly powerful.

There was another loud noise.

It was the right claw of the terrifying golden beast that exploded after leaving its body.

Compared to the explosion of the white arrow, the self-destruction of the Golden Roc's divine body was hundreds of times more powerful, directly blasting a huge gap in the universe. The golden giant sword, which served as a node in the formation, was also blown away.

The Taibai Golden Sword Formation thus developed a loophole.

"I, Thorvis, will remember you, humans!"

A venomous voice came through the explosion. The Golden Fear Beast, which had somehow managed to restore its divine body, had escaped through a loophole in the formation. It turned its head and let out a roar filled with hatred, as if it wanted to remember the humans who had almost driven it to the brink of destruction.

Dongcang!

Just as the Fearless Golden Hou was about to flee the area, a colossal bronze cauldron, tens of thousands of feet tall and as large as the Fearless Golden Hou, crashed into it.

The immense impact left the Golden Roc slightly dazed. Before it could react, a series of massive bronze cauldrons slammed it back into the Taibai Golden Sword Formation.

Upon seeing this, Babata quickly manipulated the golden giant sword, which served as a node in the sword formation, back into place, imprisoning the Fear Golden Hou once again.

Kong Jinhou: (Looking at this scene with a desperate and blank expression)
At this moment, after it self-destructed some of its divine power, and was then annihilated by sword energy and divine power arrows, its aura had weakened by nearly ten times.

It’s over.

Half an hour later, in despair, the Golden Hou, extremely unwilling, self-destructed all its divine bodies and perished completely.

The torrent of divine power unleashed by the self-destruction directly destroyed more than 300,000 metal golems, and also caused minor injuries to Lydia, who was prepared.

However, if the loss of divine power is not significant, the recovery speed is extremely fast. It is estimated that he can fully recover in ten days to half a month without affecting his performance.

after the war.

The group gathered together and sat down again in the F9-class cabin hall, where the spaceship flew stealthily and steadily.

"Haha, we've struck it rich this time!" The Blade Clan's Demon Blade was overjoyed.

He has been in the extraterrestrial battlefield for hundreds of years, and has only killed two immortal gods with Captain Lydia, both of whom were the weakest ordinary novice immortal gods.

And now? In one fell swoop, they killed a demon king named Terror Golden Hou, who was close to the peak of an ordinary immortal, as well as eleven demons with the strength of a realm lord general.

"Come on, let's calculate our gains and see how much we've earned this time," said Xinmei, the snake-woman beast tamer, with great interest.

The ten men exchanged glances, each able to see the smiles in the other's eyes. Counting money was naturally a pleasant experience.

"The world ring I have, along with its resources, cosmic crystals, and treasures, is worth approximately 15 Chaos Units."

"Wow! My World Ring is worth nearly 800 Chaos Units. I never expected that clumsy elephant demon to be so rich."

Exclamations of surprise could be heard every now and then.

Soon, all the wealth in the hands of the ten people was accounted for.

The total assets of that fearsome golden beast amounted to approximately 22 mixed units.

The remaining eleven Realm Lords and War Generals of the Demon Clan total approximately 5000 Chaos Units.

“Let’s divide these assets according to military merit,” Lydia said.

Their battles were recorded entirely in a virtual universe, and military merits were strictly allocated based on this recording.

In this game, a solo kill earns all military merits, while the merits earned from participating in a kill are distributed according to their importance.

For example, killing the Golden Roc earned a total of 500 million military merits. Babata, as the main force, received 300 million military merits, while Lydia, as a secondary main force, received 130 million.

Luo Feng used the Nine Provinces Cauldron to deliver a devastating blow to the beast. Although it caused almost no injury, it completely cornered the Golden Fear Beast, thus earning him 50 million military merits.

Of the remaining 20 million military merits, Nien, Xinmei, and Modao each received between several hundred thousand and several million.

After dealing with the demon race who were the realm lords, they joined the battle of attacking the Fear Golden Hou from a distance, consuming a lot of the Fear Golden Hou's divine power, so they also made a contribution.

As for those realm lords and demon race members, regardless of their strength, each one is guaranteed ten million military merits.

In the military merit system, killing an ordinary realm lord grants a fixed 100 military merits, an elite realm lord grants 1000 million military merits, and a realm lord general grants 10 million military merits.

Ordinary Immortals at the initial level earn 100 million military merits, Ordinary Immortals at the advanced level earn 500 million military merits, and Ordinary Immortals at the peak level earn 1 billion military merits. Reaching the peak of the King level earns 100 trillion military merits.

It looks like a lot, but it's not actually that much, because in the military merit system, the ratio of military merit to mixed units is 10 military merits to exchange for 1 mixed unit.

Even if you kill a peak-level alien king, ten quadrillion military merits are only equivalent to ten billion mixed units.

However, these are all extra gains. All the rewards from killing alien races would have belonged to the user, and many valuable items in the military merit system are not available for purchase outside the military merit system, so the value of military merit is still very high.

At least, as far as Luo Feng knew, military merits could even buy valuable treasures, but the amount of military merits required was ridiculously high.

The remaining Chaos City slots, resources for comprehending the Chaos Stele, and various precious materials are all readily available, second only to the clan's treasure vault.

"Of the 22.5 Chaos Units, I received 4.795 Chaos Units. The Demon received the most, with 11.065 Chaos Units, followed by Galaxy with 2.213 Chaos Units, Nien with 0.737 Chaos Units, and Heart Charm with 0.611 Chaos Units. The one with the least was the Greatsword, with only 0.243 Chaos Units."

Lydia quickly calculated the allocation plan.

No one objected to this, as it was based on military merit, considering who made the greatest contribution. While not absolutely fair, it was relatively fair.

After everyone had divided up the spoils, their gazes fell on Babata and Luo Feng, especially on Babata, whose eyes were filled with amazement.
"Let's not even talk about Galaxy, after all, its strength is undeniable. To be able to drive that Golden Roar back to its cage at a crucial moment, Demon, you've really been hiding your strength well." Demon Blade clicked his tongue in amazement.

An elite realm lord possesses a trump card that can defeat even a powerful beast like the Golden Roar, whose strength is close to that of an ordinary immortal peak. This is simply defying the heavens.

However, they could barely accept it, since Babata's trump card mainly relied on external forces.

Moreover, Babata suffered such a huge loss this time.

“Didn’t I say before that, apart from Captain Lydia, none of you are my match?” Babata said smugly.

Nien's lips twitched, feeling slightly embarrassed. He had indeed looked down on Babata before, but he hadn't expected to be proven wrong in less than ten days.

After a few words of conversation and laughter, Lydia coughed and got down to business.
"Demon, how much damage have you suffered this time? Do you need to go back to base to replenish and rest?"

The others also looked at Babata with great attention upon hearing their captain's words. Demonstrating strength naturally earns respect, and at this moment, the core of Lydia's team had unknowingly become Lydia and Babata.

As a core fighting force, they are naturally very concerned, as this also involves everyone's gains and safety.

“No need, this loss won’t affect the execution of my Taibai Golden Sword Formation.” Babata shook his head.

Its million E9-class mechanical golems suffered significant losses in this battle, with over 24 almost completely destroyed and beyond repair, and approximately 18 suffering minor damage that required repair before they could be used.

Currently, only about 58 mechanical puppets remain intact, which is insufficient to unleash the full power of the Taibai Golden Sword Formation.

Under normal circumstances, he would definitely need to return to base to rest and replenish his energy, but... Babata turned his gaze to Luo Feng, secretly transmitting his voice in a humble and ingratiating tone,

"Boss, about the mechanical puppets..."

Luo Feng pulled some of his thoughts away from the transformation of the elemental particles, glanced at Babata speechlessly, but said nothing.

On a whim, he opened the exchange shop provided by 'Bai'.

Search - Mechanical Puppets Category

Soon, hundreds of different types of mechanical puppets appeared in the exchange shop.

From the lowest-level E9 mechanical puppets to F9 and even G9 mechanical puppets. From lower-level law mechanical puppets based on metal, wood, water, fire, earth, light, lightning, and wind, to higher-level law mechanical puppets based on time and space, everything is available.

Of course, the price differences are also extremely exaggerated.

"Exchange for one million E9-level Metal Law mechanical puppets." With a thought, a large portion of the metals and alloys he stored in his cheat code space vanished instantly.

With the crafting materials available, the Immortal Points were consumed in small amounts, not even a single point was used; only about 0.1 points were consumed.

After all, killing an ordinary novice immortal god only yields one or two immortal points, so immortal points are quite valuable.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Feng exchanged for another three thousand F9-level Golden Void Fusion Law Mechanical Puppets.

With the support of the array, the individual combat power of an E9-level mechanical puppet can barely reach that of a normal ninth-level World Lord. Without the support of the array, it has only one-tenth the combat power of a normal ninth-level World Lord.

However, even without the support of formations, these three thousand F9-level Golden Void Fusion Law mechanical puppets possess individual combat power at the level of elite realm lords. Coupled with their hard bodies, which are difficult for ordinary immortal gods to destroy, each one can rival tens of thousands of E9-level mechanical puppets.

Once the formation is activated, each aircraft's combat power can even reach the level of a World Lord General.

Of course, the ordinary realm master generals with only two or three hundred million military merits are not the realm master generals with one billion military merits and strength comparable to ordinary primary immortals.

After placing one million E9-level Golden Law Mechanical Puppets and three thousand F9-level Golden Void Fusion Law Mechanical Puppets into a world ring and handing them over to Babata.
"Aww, boss, you're my boss for life!" Babata exclaimed excitedly as he explored the World Ring with his mind.

If there weren't other people around, it would definitely have jumped up and howled to release its overwhelming excitement.

Luo Feng smiled without saying a word, but a faint sense of emotion lingered in his heart.

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, several months have passed.

The Seventh Battlefield is a notorious battle zone known as the Shattered Star Belt.

A white, standard E-class spaceship is docked on one of the star fragments.

Inside the spaceship were Lydia's team of ten.

"Come on, cheers! Let's celebrate the success of our operation!" Demon Blade laughed heartily, his face flushed, as he drank spirit wine heartily with Babata, Nien, and the others.

"Demon, where is Yinhe? Why is he still in his seclusion room?"

After drinking for a while, Lydia asked curiously. She felt that Galaxy was a very mysterious man who could make demons willingly call him Boss. The longer she got to know him, the more she felt that there was a layer of mystery surrounding him.

Unfortunately, the man was a man of few words, and although Lydia longed to get to know him better, she could never find the opportunity.

"You mean the boss? He's made a breakthrough in his cultivation and will be out in a bit. We can drink our own drinks and don't need to worry about him," Babata said nonchalantly.

It knew the inside story. Since Luo Feng specifically sent it a telepathic message telling it not to disturb him, it must be at a crucial moment, and naturally it couldn't let Lydia and the others disturb Luo Feng.

Although Babata got along quite well with this group of people after spending several months together, it was only a "good" relationship.

"After Luo Feng's breakthrough this time, he'll probably have to say goodbye to them." Babata drank a cup of spiritual wine, looking at the group of people laughing and joking freely, and felt a little emotional.

Although Luo Feng didn't say it, Babata had this premonition.

Because Luo Feng had recently completed his mission of earning 1 billion military merits, he was no longer bound by any restrictions and could now move freely on the battlefield outside the region.

As for its military merit quota? It is only an elite realm master, and its military merit quota is only 20 million, which it had already met when it killed the Terror Golden Hou.

Inside the spaceship's closed chamber.

Wisps of gray energy flowed around Luo Feng's body, interspersed with traces of gold.

As time passed, those wisps of gold completely disappeared, transforming into a gray current of air.

"After three months, I have finally transformed all 840 million Dragon Elephant Particles in my body into Primordial Elephant Particles." Luo Feng slowly opened his eyes, a hint of joy flashing in them.

With a thought, he felt tens of thousands of primordial particles surging within his body, instantly amplifying his power by tens of thousands of times.

Although the empowerment is the same as the previous Dragon Elephant Particles, the smoothness and speed of power flow are more than ten times faster, giving a feeling of complete freedom.

"Let's try condensing Yuan Armor." Luo Feng's heart stirred, and he closed his eyes slightly, beginning to cultivate the secret technique of 'Yuan Armor'.

On Luo Feng's body, wisps of gray energy gradually intertwined, eventually etching mysterious gray patterns onto his skin.

This is the solidification of the physical body by the Yuanjia Secret Pattern.

After engraving a complete gray secret rune on his chest, Luo Feng exhaled lightly, opened his eyes, and then with a thought, the hundred Yuanxiang particles in his body boiled and instantly merged into the gray secret rune on his chest.

The gray secret pattern glowed slightly, transforming into a fine gray skin layer that covered Luo Feng's skin.

Luo Feng raised his hand, removed his nails, revealing his slender palm with an ancient gray skin.

“A single Yuan Armor Secret Rune can be integrated with one hundred Yuan Image Particles. Each Yuan Image Particle, amplified by the Yuan Armor Secret Rune, can withstand a material attack with a strength one hundred times that of a Realm Lord.” Luo Feng carefully sensed the strength of this gray membrane and was amazed.

One hundred Yuanxiang particles, amplified by the Yuanjia Secret Runes, are enough to withstand a material attack with a power ten thousand times stronger than that of a Realm Lord.

What does this amount to?
This means that even if Luo Feng were naked and allowed to be attacked by immortal gods below the initial level of the King rank, they would not be able to break through his defenses unless the opponents used secret techniques or burned their divine bodies to fight to the death!

"If we wear the Seven-Colored Light Crystal Armor, and the physical attack is weakened by a hundred times, then..." Luo Feng's expression shifted slightly.

Without comprehending the special runes, the Seven-Colored Crystal Armor can only weaken material attacks by a hundredfold. After comprehending the first rune, it can weaken material attacks by a thousandfold.

Comprehending the second and final level of the secret runes can weaken physical attacks by ten thousand times.

Of course, even top-tier treasures have their limits. It's impossible for it to be weakened ten thousand times in front of a universe overlord. Reaching the level of a universe overlord's attack would already exceed the limit of the Seven-Colored Light Crystal Armor.

"Unfortunately, the armor and the seven-colored crystal armor cannot be worn at the same time," Luo Feng said with some helplessness.

Although the armor is not a top-tier treasure, it still cannot be stacked with the Seven-Colored Crystal Armor. At any given time, Luo Feng can only use one piece.

If they could be stacked, wouldn't all those cosmic lords and universe masters have to wear several or even dozens of precious treasures and armors to protect their lives?

"Never mind, one shouldn't be too greedy." Luo Feng chuckled softly, then got up and left the secluded cultivation room.

The primordial particles have been completely transformed. Next, one can cultivate and condense primordial particles while simultaneously cultivating the 'Primordial Armor' secret technique.

There's no need to rush this, just take your time.

"Galaxy, you've finally come out! We just won a battle and you went into seclusion. You're being way too diligent." The enthusiastic Demon Blade, with a wine cup in his left hand and a wine pot in his right, walked up to Luo Feng and chuckled.

"I've made some progress, and my seclusion is also for better organization." Luo Feng smiled faintly.

After the banquet, he planned to leave the team with Babata.

After all, staying in this squad means many things can't be exposed, and you're held back.

"Boss, an alien spaceship is approaching. Wait, they've spotted us and are creeping this way."

Just as Luo Feng took the wine glass and was about to relax a bit, Babata's expression changed slightly, and he sent a telepathic message to Luo Feng.

Its body was equipped with extremely advanced detectors, many times more advanced than those of the Vilydia team.

"According to the images detected by the detector, the other party is the powerful vassal group of the demon race, the 'Yaksha Evil Ghost' clan. There is one Yaksha Evil Ghost at the peak of the Marquis level and two Yaksha Evil Ghosts at the initial Marquis level on the spaceship!"

In the Shattered Star Belt, there are many teams led by Realm Lords and quite a few teams led by Immortal Gods, but those at the Marquis level are few and far between.

Those who achieve the highest rank, become immortals, or are even stronger, primarily appear on higher-level battlefields.

For example, the Fiery Sacrifice Continent, the Devil's Starry Sky, and the Dark Chaos Domain.

Therefore, the chance of encountering a Marquis-level Immortal in such a vast star-shattering belt is like winning the lottery.

Not to mention three people!

"Let me do it. Your current Taibai Golden Sword Formation, if used unexpectedly, can at most deal with those barely at the Marquis level," Luo Feng said with a smile, stopping Babata who was eager to try.
