Swallowed Star 1369 Luo Feng's Automaton Type Treasure

Wu He was being watched by Luo Feng. Left with no other alternative, Wu He, through gritted teeth, finally had to reveal the most important treasure he had brought along with him when he joined the army this time around. And Luo Feng, who saw the treasure appearing on the piece of empty land, immediately showed his great pleasure.
A moment later, the deal was completed.
"Milky Way, I shall not further impose on you." Upon obtaining a true G.o.d corpse, Wu He left without further ado.
"Yes, yes." Luo Feng nodded and smiled, maintaining a friendly disposition.
Wu He transformed into a streak of flowing light and, with one teleportation, departed.
Luo Feng could not resist shaking his head as he sighed. "He is truly worthy to be a child of the master of Northern True Ocean. Quite extraordinary, indeed. This deal is definitely worth it!"
The deal this time around had cost Luo Feng one true G.o.d corpse. As for Wu He, the price he had paid consisted of a true G.o.d level armor, a large quant.i.ty of law master weapon armors, and… an automaton-type treasure!
This automaton-type treasure was named "Seven Searing Flying Armor," and it was pretty average in most aspects. However, it was most skillful in survival and escape, as it was very adept at changing directions and dodging. To have traded for it at the military point would have cost 120,000 military credits. On the other hand, if one wanted to trade it in at the military point in exchange for military credits, the treasure would only earn 100,000 military credits. This showed how corrupt the military point was.
100,000 military credits was enough to turn a hopeless situation into an advantage. Thus, one could stay alive. Furthermore, it was impossible to gain military credits if one had not completed the a.s.signed mission. In fact, by gaining the true G.o.d corpse from Luo Feng, Wu He had not only managed to stay alive but had also gained 10,000 military credits.
Wu He had been quite careless in his considerations. Originally, he had thought that by bringing various treasures along with him, he could weather a disaster-level mission no matter what. Yet, when the mission had begun, he had been stupefied.
First, it was the great melee, where he had merely managed to acc.u.mulate a partial amount of military credits. Then, after the series of melees…
Wu He was aware that when the final battle between Xuan Yu Mountain and Nine Smoke Marsh came to an end, both parties would be extremely vigilant. The idea of closing in on a few thousand law masters and killing them all by the edge of Nine Smoke Region was a pipe dream. As for the three other troops headed by the captain, Ku Fa, and Yu Luo, every troop had managed to obtain at least a portion of weapons and armor. But Wu He was alone. With the other three troops moved about in groups, the moment he got involved with them, he was bound to be eliminated.
The most terrible thing was that before he completed his mission, there was no way he could trade for anything at the military point. Therefore, he was unable to use Seven Searing Flying Armor to trade for military credits.

His only recourse had been to turn to Luo Feng for help.
******
After the deal with Wu He, Luo Feng still had over 30 true G.o.d corpses in his possession, so he was in no hurry to get to the military point to purchase treasures. Meanwhile, the warriors from one troop were continuously trying to establish contact with Luo Feng's transmission token.
"Milky Way, please! Help me just this once. I will never, ever forget your kindness. I am willing to give you all the other treasures I have with me to trade for one true G.o.d body."
"Milky Way, so long as you are willing to help me, from this moment on, I will only listen to your command. If you ask me to kill Captain, I will charge out and kill him without hesitation."
"Milky Way…"
They had not given up trying to get Luo Feng to spare them a true G.o.d corpse. At the moment, Luo Feng was in the military camp, and everyone could forget about trying to kill him. Instead, they had to keep their heads bowed obediently if they wanted to strike a deal with him.
Luo Feng's reply was curt and straightforward. "I only have one condition," he said. "Use a treasure that is worth 100,000 military credits to exchange for one beast true G.o.d corpse. If you do not have any treasures worth 100,000 military credits… then I can't be bothered about whether you live or die!"
Previously, these warriors had been indifferent to Luo Feng's survival. Why should he concern himself with their fate, now?
Of course, if they could offer a treasure that was worth 100,000 military credits, it was still worth considering whether or not he should deal with them. He was, after all, here to fight for the future of his race.
Luo Feng was filled with greed, yet these warriors were wallowing in poverty. There was no way poor soldiers would own treasures worth 100,000 military credits. The captain would certainly have such treasures, but he had already managed to seize a true G.o.d corpse. That was why Luo Feng spent his time cultivating and waiting. But after one full year, not a single deal had been successful.
"Milky Way, you're too greedy."
"Luo Feng, you really don't deserve to live."
"Loathsome…!"
Unable to get what they wanted, the soldiers were furious to the extent of hatred. But Luo Feng wasn't bothered in the slightest.
"As if I care whether you all die or not!" he jeered.
*******
It was the third year after Luo Feng finished his military mission, and once again, he was at the military point to exchange the Seven Searing Flying Armor and the other 33 true G.o.d corpses for military credits. Then he began trading for treasures.
He mainly spent it on an automaton type treasure "Golden Claw G.o.d," which used up 400,000 military credits! The remaining military credits were used to purchase a domain type supreme true treasure (true G.o.d level), which cost him 30,000 military credits. Golden Claw G.o.d!
Luo Feng stood in a big hall within a gigantic stone house on his own island. The hall was empty except for a golden sculpture that stood erected. Luo Feng was looking very carefully at this golden sculpture.
"Golden Claw G.o.d?" Luo Feng said softly. "A single-body type automaton treasure. It can be considered to be in the same category as that most mysterious Wu Qi G.o.d. However, it has much lesser power."
This so-called less power was a matter of relative comparison with Wu Qi G.o.d.
After all, this was an automaton type treasure that he had spent 400,000 military credits on. It surely must have been more powerful than Black Cloud Wings and the few others.
"Defense, attack, speed… strong in every aspect." Luo Feng nodded slightly. "It is complete."
Being strong in every aspect meant that it might not be invincible in all aspects, but it did not have any shortcomings.
Deep in his heart, Luo Feng was eyeing up Wu Qi G.o.d. That was why he got a simplified version of Wu Qi G.o.d: Golden Claw G.o.d. In his heart, he was inclined toward such automaton-type treasures without shortcomings. Previously, he had not had enough military credits. After giving up Seven Searing Flying Armor, he had finally acc.u.mulated enough military credits.
"Let's try using it." With a move of intention, the golden sculpture flew swiftly to land on Luo Feng's body.
Hua!
Golden light began flowing in an instant. It enshrouded Luo Feng in his entirety. Right away, he transformed into a lofty, golden monster wearing a mask. This golden monster took the form of a human, had a pair of claws in place of hands, and also a pair of claws for legs. Its head was triangular, and it exuded a wild, fearsome aura. Because he was wearing Golden Claw G.o.d, it had forced his Python River Army's standard armor into a temporary retreat. The two would never be able to coexist.
Luo Feng felt as though he had transformed into a supreme true treasure armor.
"Blazing G.o.dly power!" Luo Feng made a move in his mind.
Hong!
Blazing G.o.dly power rapidly integrated into the golden claw G.o.d armor, and powerful energy coursed through every secret engraving found in this Golden Claw G.o.d. Yet the result was… uncontrollable! Apparently, the internal secret engravings were much more difficult; Luo Feng could only stop his G.o.dly power from blazing further so that he could first comprehend these secret engravings carefully.
Given Luo Feng's level of secret technique, he had to study for more than three days to finally comprehend how to control this entire Golden Claw G.o.d. Very quickly, a great amount of blazing G.o.dly power was infused into Golden Claw G.o.d, which then coursed through the countless lines of secret engravings. The precise union of G.o.dly power and secret engravings finally gathered at several points of the entire Golden Claw G.o.d armor—namely, one point on the back, two points on the shoulders, and two points on the knees. There was a total of five main centers.
Energy conversion!
Si! Si!
Golden filaments of tenacious energy were speedily transmitted to every inch of the entire Golden Claw G.o.d. The golden energy and Golden Claw G.o.d were so compatible that there was a sudden outburst of energy.
"Just as I thought," said Luo Feng, delighted. "This is definitely something quite extraordinary. Simply one conversion, and the energy is increased by two levels. My ninth-tier attack, if executed with Golden Claw G.o.d… Will it become an eleventh-tier attack?"
Luo Feng felt how truly impressive this automaton-type true treasure was.
"With this treasure…! I was already standing at the peak of Universe Ocean. With this Golden Claw G.o.d from the ancient civilization, who within Universe Ocean can be my match?"
Luo Feng was extremely satisfied. In terms of combat power, he was now even stronger than Teacher Origin had been back when he was at Luo Feng's current level. Of course, this was possible for him for two reasons. One, Teacher Origin had not known of the secret technique of blazing G.o.dly power, and two, Teacher Origin had not had an automaton type treasure.
With the influx of various powers from Universe Ocean entering the World of Jin, the combat power of the entire Universe of Ocean would also increase in its entirety. However, only warriors from special troops were qualified to trade for automaton-type treasures, and the amount of military credits required was costly. Within a short period of time, various groups of powers from Universe Ocean who had intentions to trade for automaton-type treasures would face great difficulties.
******
After obtaining Golden Claw G.o.d, Luo Feng put great effort into studying it—even to the extent of specially wearing Golden Claw G.o.d in the s.p.a.ce of inheritance within the Boat of Mausoleum for cultivation.
Time and again, cultivation had caused Luo Feng to sigh. His emotions were running high. No wonder the ancient civilization had records that expressed great compliments for automaton-type treasures. Other than the beings that stood at the peak of the ancient civilization, ordinary great beings would also be able to make use of automaton-type treasures to release outbursts of power that far surpa.s.sed their own. A complete Golden Claw G.o.d could enable the power to soar by two levels.
"This is only for single-body automatons. For those in groups, with thousands of true G.o.ds up to millions of true G.o.ds controlling the automaton type treasure…" Luo Feng sighed.
Large-scale wars were like that. When millions of true G.o.ds were controlling a single automaton-type treasure, they would dare to go after an eternal true G.o.d!
*****
Time pa.s.sed.
It was the 5,600th year since Luo Feng first arrived at the World of Jin, and Wu He had secretly gone to Luo Feng's island.
"Milky Way, Milky Way! Did you know? Captain and the others are back." Wu He seemed to be gloating over their misfortune.
"Oh?" Luo Feng was surprised. Half an era had pa.s.sed. He had almost forgotten about the captain and the other troops. "How are they?"
"How else can they be? Of course, they are in a mess." Wu He's hideous head was swaying about. "More than half of all their troops were killed. Even Yu Luo has died! Ku Fa made it back alive, though."
"Yu Luo is dead?" Luo Feng was shocked. Yu Luo was a leader in that troop; it should not have been difficult for him to acc.u.mulate enough military credits.
"Who knows? I heard the battle was very intense," Wu He lamented. "From the start, this might have been a disaster-level mission, but it should not have been severe enough to claim so many lives! I also heard that Captain had been way too vicious, forcing Ku Fa and Yu Luo to finally enter a state of frenzy. Yu Luo died, and Ku Fa barely survived. And in the meantime, Captain seems to have gained quite a lot."
Those experienced warriors had suffered a severe loss this time, but Luo Feng and Wu He—the two new recruits—showed no traces of sympathy.
Of the warriors who had made it back alive, some bore hatred for Luo Feng. There were even some who would curse and swear angrily when they flew across Luo Feng's lake island. They only acknowledged him in regards to his impressive ability to move and dodge. They did not fear him, but if they were to see how Luo Feng killed true G.o.ds, they would likely not have dared to disregard him anymore. A pity. Only the captain had managed to personally witness such a situation, but he would never publicize such a matter.
Of course, there were some who hated Luo Feng and also some who simply could not be bothered with him. But there was also a final portion that would take the initiative to get acquainted with Luo Feng.
"Let there be an uproar then. I am just a pa.s.sing traveler. I just hope that before I leave the World of Jin, all of you are still alive." Luo Feng was not concerned about these warriors at all; during this quiet period, he had gone to the military point to apply for a mission to receive a t.i.tle.
Receiving a t.i.tle was dangerous, yet there was a 10 percent chance of survival at the very least. Luo Feng self-a.s.sessed that he was absolutely within the top 1,000 of the most top-notch elite warriors, so his chances of surviving were high enough. Furthermore, he had the ability to divide his body. This mission to receive a t.i.tle… Why not give it a shot?
Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, an era had pa.s.sed since Luo Feng first stepped into the World of Jin. Time flew by just like that.
