Thirty-four Luo Feng avatars guarded various locations within the core area of Raincloud City.

After eliminating one leader team and suppressing a second, the remaining three leader teams were filled with terror and immediately began to frantically flee.

“How is this Luo Feng so strong?”
“Why does an entire leader team stand no chance against him?”

These leader teams couldn’t accept it. The city had fallen, they were about to enjoy their feast, but then they suddenly encountered such a catastrophe.

“Help!”
“King, help!”
The leaders of the second suppressed team cried out anxiously for help, dying one after another. This only intensified the panic among the fleeing leaders.

Roughly half of the leader-level powerhouses from the Illusionary Worm and Soul-Devouring Serpent races across the entire Nine Rivers Holy World had come to Raincloud City, but now they faced their doom!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The black-robed Luo Fengs’ flight and evasion techniques continued to improve. Initially, tearing through the fabric of space and time created significant commotion, but gradually, the disturbance grew smaller. A blurry rift in space and time would appear, and Luo Feng would step out, instantly covering a vast distance.

When Luo Feng transformed into a sea of blood and trapped the third leader team, it deepened the despair of the other fleeing leaders. “Flee separately!”

“Disperse completely, hide yourselves by possessing!”
The remaining leaders quickly scattered, attempting to possess cultivators.

“Disperse?”
Luo Feng had numerous avatars surrounding them. Moreover, the avatars with ‘100x energy reserves’ split again, each dividing into two, forming new avatars with ’50x energy reserves’, causing the number of avatars to surge.

After all, these leaders were dispersed, and their individual resistance was far weaker than that of an entire leader team.

Luo Feng’s glabella also possessed the ‘Biomimetic Extinction Eye’, completely locking onto the true body of every single leader!

Whoosh!
As each Luo Feng stepped through a spatial rift, transforming into a streak of blood-light and passing a leader, that leader died instantly.

Acting alone, they couldn’t even withstand a single move from Luo Feng.

“Luo Feng!”
The ‘King’, appearing as Hall Master Yu Yang, was indeed enraged. Its illusory form actively charged towards the nearest Luo Feng avatar. Luo Feng stood high in the sky, observing this without evasion, and coldly watched the King’s assault. “I didn’t expect such a powerful being like you in Raincloud City! Fortunately, Hall Master Yuan Xiang didn’t truly value you; if he had, we might not have been able to breach Raincloud City.” The King’s voice resonated in Luo Feng’s mind.

Luo Feng looked at the ‘King’ resembling Hall Master Yu Yang.

He was already the City Lord of Raincloud City, though it hadn’t been announced. Fortunately, he had made a breakthrough at a critical moment; if he had been slower… Raincloud City might have been completely annihilated.

Boom!
The instant the King approached, its innate secret technique, ‘Delusion Heart’, was unleashed.
In a flash, it completely enveloped Luo Feng’s mind and consciousness.

This ordinary avatar of Luo Feng did not possess the ‘Undying Heart’ or ‘World in Hand’. At that moment, Luo Feng only felt a massive influx of information into his mind, completely disorienting his perception.

“Who am I?”
“Am I an Illusionary Worm? No… Of course, I am Luo Feng!”
Luo Feng’s eyes remained clear.

The ‘Dao’ of a God-King at the ultimate stage already offered resistance against will attacks. At the God-Emperor level, as the ‘Dao’ grew stronger, so did its impediment to will attacks! This is also why the weapons and secret treasures refined by God-Emperors could obstruct will attacks. Luo Feng’s ‘Dao of Creation and Destruction at God-Emperor Late Stage’ had already reached an extremely high level. Under this great Dao’s obstruction, even the mind and will attack of an Overlimit-level Illusionary Worm was instantly weakened by 70 to 80 percent.

Furthermore, the Yuan Art guarded him! And the power of Raincloud City protected him!

All will power was suppressed, and the mind-bewildering ability was greatly weakened. Luo Feng merely received a large amount of information transmitted by ‘Innate Delusion Heart’!

He himself was perfectly lucid, able to easily filter this information as if reading a book.

“Suppress.” While remaining clear-headed, this avatar of Luo Feng transformed into a sea of blood, activating an array formation to trap the Overlimit-level Illusionary Worm.

“My mind attack is completely useless against him! His realm is indeed no less than mine!” The King immediately understood.

A God-Emperor Completion level low-tier Chaos Origin Lifeform was considered on the same level as an enlightenment practitioner at the half-Chaos Origin level.

One side had a more tenacious life form, while the other fully comprehended the essence of the ‘Dao’. Without weapons or secret treasures, their strengths were comparable. However, when combined with weapons and secret treasures refined by ‘beings who transcended the cage’, the combat power of an enlightenment practitioner was naturally greater, like how Hall Master Yu Yang and Hall Master Gai Tao could individually kill a God-Emperor Completion level low-tier Chaos Origin Lifeform in a one-on-one fight.

An Overlimit level low-tier Chaos Origin Lifeform was also considered on the same level as an enlightenment practitioner who had comprehended two half-Chaos Origin level Daos.

“This Luo Feng’s realm is no less than ours!”
The King immediately transmitted a mental message to its four Overlimit-level companions: “He must have comprehended two half-Chaos Origin level Daos!”

“Hmm?” The four Overlimit-level beings who had already entered Raincloud City and were rapidly approaching the core area were all startled.

“We have five Overlimit-level beings, and over two thousand God-Emperor Completion level beings! A coordinated attack will be enough to completely destroy him,” the King transmitted.

One Overlimit-level being was comparable to twenty or thirty God-Emperor Completion level beings. The combined might of over two thousand God-Emperor Completion level beings working together would be earth-shattering!

“Fortunately, we’ve already breached the city. Otherwise, if we hadn’t, it would have been troublesome,” the King transmitted.

“Shadow, I’ll team up with you first to entangle him!” A blue and white figure, whose flight speed was the fastest and whose form was blurry, was already the closest among the four Overlimit-level beings to the core area.

After its mind attack proved useless, the King’s massive Illusionary Worm body suddenly swayed, instantly tearing apart Luo Feng’s avatar’s sea of blood array formation, and quickly breaking free.

Luo Feng’s avatar coldly watched this scene.

“Without a secret treasure, a mere ordinary avatar is still weaker than an Overlimit-level being,” Luo Feng realized this.

This was also why his strongest secret techniques, ‘Undying Blood Sea Body’ and ‘Biomimetic Extinction Eye’, were not yet perfected. Some ordinary secret techniques held no deterrent power when dealing with Overlimit-level beings.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
While Luo Feng engaged with the King, his other avatars had already eliminated all the other leaders. After their elimination, Luo Feng returned to thirty-four avatars.

The thirty-four avatars continued to guard the core area. “This, this, how is this possible?”

The elders of Raincloud City could control the array formations they had inscribed within the city. Through these arrays, they could sense the entire city, and thus clearly saw what had just happened in the core area!

Luo Feng, by himself, split into thirty-four avatars! He completely annihilated all leader-level infiltrators! Even the ‘King’, after clashing with one of Luo Feng’s avatars, could only retreat in vain.

“He, by himself, destroyed thirty God-Emperor Completion level low-tier Chaos Origin Lifeforms?”
“Even an Overlimit-level Illusionary Worm couldn’t do anything to one of his avatars?”
“God-Emperor Luo Feng, he…”

Anyone who wasn’t blind could see that Luo Feng’s strength had far surpassed the Hall Master level! He had reached a higher tier.

“Luo Feng, he has comprehended two half-Chaos Origin level Daos?”
All the elders came to this conclusion.

Even in the Dark Holy World, beings who comprehended two half-Chaos Origin level Daos were considered among the peak ranks! As for even stronger, invincible beings, they were legends in the Dark Holy World, difficult to even glimpse.

“Luo Feng actually possesses such strength?” The Master of the Insect Nest, Yeke, also trembled slightly. “Hall Master-level beings would probably die in one or two moves before the current Luo Feng.”

“He has a grudge against me. Even if Raincloud City is defended, there will be no place for me in Raincloud City in the future.” The Master of the Insect Nest realized this. In the world of cultivators, strength was fundamental.

Even if Luo Feng wasn’t the City Lord! His power, capable of obliterating Hall Master-level beings with a flick of his wrist, would make him the uncrowned king of Raincloud City! If he wanted to expel the Insect Nest, it simply couldn’t survive in Raincloud City.

“I’ll help defend the city first, then leave voluntarily after the defense is over. His hostility should also lessen then.” The Master of the Insect Nest immediately made a decision.

“This Luo Feng’s strength…” The Master of Myriad Shadow Pavilion, the Master of Guifang, Elder Tian He, Pavilion Master Chang Qing, Elder Xing Yi, and others were all inwardly shaken, each with their own thoughts.

A being of this caliber would be an uncrowned king in any city within the Nine Rivers Holy World.

In the Dark Holy World, they would be among the peak ranks.

“We’re saved.”
“Raincloud City is saved.” Many elders were excited; they saw hope.

“Hall Master, Hall Master! God-Emperor Luo Feng must engrave array formations in Raincloud City’s core. With his strength, and by utilizing the city’s arrays, there’s hope of completely repelling the low-tier Chaos Origin Lifeform army.”

“Yes, Hall Master, God-Emperor Luo Feng must engrave the arrays as quickly as possible,” the Master of Myriad Shadow Pavilion immediately transmitted. “The sooner, the better. Only God-Emperor Luo Feng can save Raincloud City.”

“Hall Master…” The Master of the Insect Nest and others actively transmitted their messages.

“Everyone, rest assured,” Hall Master Yuan Xiang transmitted. “I have already handed the City Creation Seal to God-Emperor Luo Feng. God-Emperor Luo Feng is already the City Lord of my Raincloud City!” He then added, “Luo Feng, please respond to everyone.”

“Everyone,” as City Lord, Luo Feng instantly transmitted to every elder, “I have refined the City Creation Seal. From this moment on, I am the City Lord of Raincloud City.”

“City Lord!”
“City Lord Luo!”
“City Lord Luo has arrived; our Raincloud City is saved!”
“Hundreds of millions of cultivators are saved!” All the elders were greatly uplifted.

Luo Feng transmitted, “Everyone, the low-tier Chaos Origin Lifeform army will not simply wait to die. They will surely besiege me at all costs! Therefore, I ask all elders to utilize Raincloud City’s array formations to deal with the low-tier Chaos Origin Lifeform army.”

“Yes.”
“We understand.”
“City Lord, please rest assured.” The elders all saw hope.

The vast low-tier Chaos Origin Lifeform army was surging directly towards the core area from all directions. Luo Feng’s Biomimetic Extinction Eye observed closely: the most terrifying elements of this massive army were the five Overlimit-level beings and over 2,600 God-Emperor Completion level existences!

“Kill this Luo Feng!”
“Destroy every one of his avatars!”
“Exhaust his energy, and he’ll no longer be able to save Raincloud City!”

At this moment, the five Overlimit-level beings, over 2,600 God-Emperor Completion level beings, and tens of thousands of God-Emperor Late Stage low-tier Chaos Origin Lifeforms were all utterly frantic. Having breached a city, this was their most promising chance at freedom in their entire lives!

Kill, kill, kill! By killing enough cultivators, they could escape the great cage that was the Nine Rivers Holy World.

Bound within the Nine Rivers Holy World, what they most anticipated was the moment they regained their freedom.

Luo Feng was the hope for hundreds of millions of cultivators in Raincloud City to survive. Yet, he was also the greatest obstacle to the low-tier Chaos Origin Lifeform army achieving their freedom!

Both sides would stop at nothing!
