Chapter 1163: Calling for Help
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
On the surface of the celestial rock was a soul that looked as big as a speck of dust—standing at a height of thousands of kilometers was the human form of Luo Feng.
“Tilted Peak Sector!”
Luo Feng stood on the celestial rock and looked around the vast void space that surrounded him. From afar, he could see the lofty and boundless main mountain with a gigantic waterfall cascading from its peak. It exuded endless power without restraint; this power attracted countless celestial rocks to circulate it while in flight, and it also forced a great amount of chaotic airflow to break apart.
“From today onward, I, Luo Feng, shall start to roam Universe Ocean.”
Radiant rays surged in Luo Feng’s eyes, making them sparkle like crystals.
Shua!
He disappeared from the celestial rock right away and reappeared amidst the faraway void space. Thereafter, he repeatedly teleported himself and charged down toward the boundless water domain that took form upon repeated impact by the cascading waterfall.
Tilted Peak Sector’s external domain could be divided into space domain and water domain. Space domain referred to the void space where many gigantic celestial rocks flew about randomly. The danger level here was extremely low, as only some celestial rocks would occasionally pose a degree of danger. The majority of these countless celestial rocks had already been explored over a long period of time. That was why great beings would more often refer to the external domain of Tilted Peak to the water domain.
The water domain that took form under the impact of the cascading waterfall spread out to encircle the entire main mountain. There were jagged rocks of distorted forms fraught with danger. Many areas would deter even universe masters from teleporting about. Universe masters had to be extremely careful even when they were flying forward. They would only dare teleport when they were by the area near the edge of the water domain and had carefully inspected with a domain type true treasure to ensure that the coast was clear.
“The most common yet most terrifying danger found within the water domain in the external domain of Tilted Peak Region would be… ‘water flow spirit.'”
Luo Feng stood high up in the sky and overlooked the vast water domain beneath him. The water domain was massive, with a diameter of a couple hundred million light years. It was even bigger than an entire human universe kingdom! And bigger than the Ancestral God secret region!
“Water flow spirits have no intelligence, nor do they bear any consciousness,” Luo Feng said to himself. “They only have basic instincts. They will only attack you if you get close to them… A water flow spirit in this water domain will be able to rely on its surroundings for power, and such power is comparable to that of a universe master.”
Thereafter, he was extremely careful as he directly rushed into the water domain below him, causing splashes of water as he landed.
In Universe Ocean, even undying godly spirits would be annihilated the moment they entered. Yet this endless water domain was able to exist. Clearly, there must have been something extraordinary about this “water;” every drop was like a star, and when waves of this water surged, the impact was extremely frightening. However, universe masters would still be able to block off this impact without difficulty.
“The water domain is fraught with danger but loaded with treasures.” Luo Feng was also aware that the treasures within the water domain existed in various forms. To obtain a treasure, one needed luck, power, and guts.
******
When Luo Feng entered the water domain, the depths of the vast and limitless water domain was around 100 million light years. With such a large quantity of undulating rocks, and the water pressure reaching such a frighteningly suppressive degree, even a universe knight could have turned to powder in an instant.
Hong! Long! Long! Long!
One celestial stone slowly rose from beneath, causing the surrounding stones to start vibrating as it continued its gradual emergence… Slowly, it continued.
The entire process took quite a while before coming to a halt. The celestial stone was already jutting out at an approximate height of close to a million kilometers. Then peace resumed.
Being 100 million light years away, Luo Feng did not detect anything amiss. He continued to explore the water domain with extreme care, and he was only at the shallowest region of the water domain.
******
Three million light years away from Luo Feng.
Firestone Master, with his towering godly body vaguely encircled by flames, flew slowly within the water domain. As a matter of course, he had parted ways with Roach Prison Master. After all, while roaming the Universe Ocean, the chances of finding treasures would be higher if one was traveling alone.
“Humph! Humanity sent Luo Feng into Universe Ocean, probably for him to hone his skills and steel himself. They want to cultivate his ability well. We, the non-human races from the Hong Alliance, did not have such opportunities.” Firestone Master was filled with bitterness. “He was able to gain so many true treasures without having to take any risks. It was said that, at the sector lord level, he already owned a few true treasures. We shall see. See how much trouble this fellow can create. I think it won’t take him long to start calling various parties for help.”
Firestone Master was filled with disdain. Such occurrences of great beings seeking help were not unprecedented. Way back when the demons of the primal universe wanted to cultivate and train Chang Vulture Master, who was an extraordinary genius with staggering powers and extremely high potential, they sent him into Universe Ocean to enable him to hone his skills. They bestowed him with some formidable true treasures for self-protection. When he met with dangers that he could not ward off or resist, other great beings from the demon race would send help immediately.
After a long period of training and cultivation, Chang Vulture Master eventually became a universe master known to be the cream of the crop and a most frightening figure! He was high in the ranks, only second to Dream Demon Ancestor and Shock Demon Ancestor. Apparently, Dream Demon Ancestor and Shock Demon Ancestor were incredibly sharp in identifying Chang Vulture Master’s potential.
But… this did not conceal the fact that Chang Vulture Master had sent out calls for help on several occasions, and those calls for help had created quite a commotion among the entire demon alliance.
“Luo Feng has great potential. Definitely an extraordinary genius with astounding power but obviously still at the bottom of the ranks. If he were to run into the older universe masters, he would be at a great disadvantage and would probably have to send out calls for help.” Firestone Master shook his head. “Make a scene, just go ahead and make a scene. There is only one thing that I don’t know. Will he be able to reach the level of Chang Vulture Master of the demon race in the future?”
Although he was displeased, Firestone Master knew that the moment Luo Feng asked for help, if he was nearby, he would immediately dash over to wherever Luo Feng was to render help.
“If he asks for help and I provide him with help, I’ll be able to give him a piece of my mind,” Firestone Master said to himself.
He knew that this would make Luo Feng unhappy, but he was a universe master who had undergone an immeasurable period of cultivation. Why should he allow himself to be bound by any rules—or anything else at all? If he wanted to laugh, he would; if he felt like scolding, he should; he was die-hard stubborn. So what?
I am unhappy with you, he thought. I would curse at you. I simply cannot find anything pleasing about you, Luo Feng. So what can you do?
Firestone Master was in the depth of the water domain, careful to avoid the water flow spirits in the distance. The water flow spirits were all white. At times, they took the form of white airflows. Other times, they took the form of humans, and other times, they were in the form of beasts. They were always in different strange forms as they drifted about the water domain.
This area was already considered quite deep and extremely dangerous. The speed of flight was way much slower. And teleporting? It was impossible to teleport at all! After all, once a water flow spirit attached itself to any being, the results were scary to imagine.
“Huh?” A sudden realization gave Firestone Master a good shock, “A sealed space?”
The space waves within the surroundings of the water domain ceased in a split-second. Firestone Master knew there was trouble looming. He looked around carefully and saw a spot of light in the distance.
The spot of light laughed. Its laughter was transmitted via the water domain, and almost within an instant, it reached Firestone Master.
“Hahaha, Firestone Master from the human alliance of the primal universe?”
That spot of light… It was a life form taking the form of a human. His entire body gave off a hazy, white light, and at the back of his head, there was a circular white light. Amidst the white light, was a vague form of a gigantic, single-eyed shadow.
“Divine Eye race!” Firestone Master immediately transformed into a beam of light and fled.
The Divine Eye race was one of the pinnacle races from the first universe era and was said to be the strongest pinnacle race during that era, with a total of seven universe supreme beings within the race! The Divine Eye race was a very secretive and scary race. They could have emerged in the first universe reincarnation era possibly due to certain unique accidents that happened during the evolution of the primal universe, and they possessed astounding power.
“You think you can escape us?” he great being from the Divine Eye race said.
Hong! Long!
Countless grains of sand appeared out of nowhere, and these countless grains filled the surrounding area with a radius of three light years within an instant. The surrounding space was earlier sealed, but even if it had not been sealed, no one would have dared to teleport through it without inhibitions. After all, this area was a dangerous land located deep within.
A radius of three light years… How could Firestone Master possibly fly out of it within a short time?
“Ice Sand Ocean!” Firestone Master gritted his teeth and looked back at that human form life-being dazzling with white light. With a furious hum, he spurted flames out of his nostrils. “An Yong Master, I have not gained any incredible true treasure. And I escaped the moment I saw you. Must you chase after me so relentlessly?”
“Life is limited,” the human form dazzling with white light slowly articulated. “Eternity is hard to find. Through endless killings, I seek the path to eternity. This is my only path now. Firestone Master… meet your doom.”
Hua!
Enshrouded in white light, with circular white rays at the back of his head, the single-eyed shadow of An Yong Master approached at an extremely high speed and charged towards Firestone Master at full force.
“Damn,” said Firestone Master, then he roared in rage, “Want to kill me? In your dreams!”
Yet he continued fleeing at full throttle, trying his very best to stall for time… At the same time, in the primal universe, his other body was speedily calling for help within the virtual universe.
“Previously, I was still commenting about Luo Feng’s pleas for help. Who would have thought that, in the blink of an eye, I would become the one asking for help? This lunatic from the first universe era, he truly is insane! How unlucky I am, to have bumped into An Yong Master.”
Firestone Master was filled with anxiety. He knew that he was facing true danger now.
“I only have a hope of surviving if either Primal Chaos City Leader or Peng Gong Master rushes over now.”
Firestone Master was also aware that those who were able to make it over to him within the shortest time possible were those few he had met up with earlier at the gathering point: Remote Lord Master, Roach Prison Master, and Absolute Darkness Master. But they were not powerful enough, and Luo Feng was not even worth a mention…
Only Primal Chaos City Leader and Peng Gong Master could save him. But those two were so powerful that they would most probably be at the internal domain of Tilted Peak Sector, and if they were really at the internal domain, then rushing over here would take a long time.
******
The call for help was sent, and the virtual universe system transferred the call to the universe masters of the human alliance who were within Universe Ocean at that very moment right away.
Within the deep mountain region of Tilted Peak Sector’s main mountain.
“Firestone Master is calling for help? An Yong Master of the Divine Eye race from the first universe era is hunting him down?”
Hong! Long! Long!
Flames shot up into the sky. Every flame exerted an impact that was strong enough to annihilate a universe master. A barbaric giant whose every step was elusive like that of a phantom, flashed past the erratic outburst of flames.
“I am too deep inside. Even rushing back will take a long time. I won’t be able to make it on time.”
“Firestone, you have to depend on your luck.”
******
“An Yong Master?”
At that moment, Roach Prison Master was considered the nearest to Firestone Master; it was somewhere within the water domain, more than one million light years away from Firestone Master. On its gigantic head, its eyes blinked.
“Big trouble. I’m afraid my presence will not make much of a difference, but I will try my best and see if I can be of any help.”
Hua!
Roach Prison Master sped up and charged into the sky. With a single teleportation, he was in the upper skies of the water domain. Thereafter, he repeatedly teleported through the void space to get to his intended destination in the fastest time possible.
******
Luo Feng also received the call for help.
“Huh? A call for help? Firestone Master is calling out for help? The address indicates that the place is only slightly more than three million light years away from me.”
Luo Feng did feel some resentment toward Firestone Master, but they both were, after all, fellow members of the human alliance.
“An Yong Master… is not one to be trifled with.”
Shua!
Luo Feng teleported out of the water domain right away and thereafter teleported repeatedly and speedily, rushing toward his destination.
