Chapter (277): [Compensation]

(5th of Volume 7)

************************************

"Buzz." "Buzz." "Buzz."...

The blood-colored worms repeatedly concealed themselves and disappeared, repeatedly attempting to penetrate the world's membrane. However, each time they were blocked by the much thicker and sturdier world's membrane.

"I've heard that theft is quite common in Yulan City, but seeing it today, their methods are indeed impressive." The three clones of Luo Feng within the inner world simultaneously looked at the blood-red bug and said with a smile.

"Let me out, I won't bother you again." The blood-colored bugs floated in the air and made a sound.

"Haha, if you want to steal, then steal. If you want to get into my inner world, then get in. Now you want to leave?" The three Luo Feng looked at the blood-colored bugs.

"Too late!"

The blood-colored bug was furious; its six pairs of small wings flapped simultaneously, disappearing in an instant.

When it reappeared, it was already close to one of the clones, which was one of Luo Feng's five types of clones, the Heavenly Light(Tianguang) Clone.

[T/N: Here Tian has different meaning such as sky, heaven and celestial. I will use heavenly for this clone.]

The Heavenly Light Clone is the most indestructible of the five clones, its body is akin to a God-Emperor Level weapon or treasure. Luo Feng also places great importance on this clone, but its energy reserve capacity is not high.

The more energy this clone possesses, the more powerful the Heavenly Light Clone will be in collapsing and condensing itself, and it will also have more higher requirements on one's spiritual will.

Two times the energy reserve of a 'perfect divine body', if the Heavenly Light Clone collapses then it can only be condensed once.

Three times the energy reserve of a perfect divine body, if the Heavenly Light Clone collapses, it can be condensed for the second time.

Tenfold perfect body energy reserve is the strongest form that Luo Feng can maintain now.

It collapsed and condensed three times. As for the stronger form, Luo Feng's spiritual will wasn't enough to make it collapse and condense.

"Bang." The blood-colored worm itself was like a treasure, and when it collided with the Heavenly Light Clone, it was as if two treasures were colliding, both completely unharmed.

"What? It's clearly the weakest clone in terms of energy..." The blood-colored worm was very surprised.

The clone of heaven and earth merged with the inner world inside his body.

At this moment, the vast energy of heaven and earth formed a giant grinding disc. This is also one of the ultimate secret techniques of the "Dao of Life and Death" created by Luo Feng, known as the "Grinding Disc of Life and Death."

[T/N: Here Grinding Disk meaning is: The Vast energy of heaven and earth formed a grinding disk shaped structure.]

The enormous Grinding Disk completely trapped the blood-colored worm, intending to crush it.

But this blood-colored worm's body, like a treasure-seeker, showed no fear of being crushed.

"Not good." The blood-red worm was trapped inside the giant grinding disk, continuously being crushed and unable to escape.

"Luo Feng, do you really want to...?" The blood-colored bug let out an angry roar, and Luo Feng frowned upon hearing it.

The intelligence of these thieving forces is really powerful. I just registered my basic information in the city today, and these thieving practitioners already know my name.

"Slash"

The cause and effect clone beside him immediately cast the curse-killing technique.

Luo Feng's five types of clones: World Clone, Heaven and Earth Clone, Time Clone, Heavenly Light Clone, and Cause and effect Clone.

The causalclone is very clear in terms of cause and effect perception, naturally having this advantage, making it suitable for cause and effect secret techniques.

Luo Feng then used the Dao of Life and Death to create the ultimate realm of life and death. The secret technique of the life-terminating, formless causal curse mainly fell upon those blood-colored bugs.

"Ah," with just one strike, the blood-colored worm let out a piercing scream, its breath instantly started to weaken significantly.

"Stop, stop." The blood-red worm immediately spoke up.

"A little bug can withstand my causal strike?" Luo Feng was surprised: "Let's try again."

"I give up, I give up." The blood-red worm said eagerly.

This blood-colored worm is one of the three life-bound insects he cultivated at a great cost. If this life-bound bug dies, he would be severely injured himself. The key is that most of his stealing methods rely on this insect.

"Want to leave after admitting defeat?" The three Luo Fengs looked at him simultaneously.

"I am willing to compensate!" The blood-colored worm was quite unwilling, but could only obediently nod.

Although the life-sustaining worm was like a treasure, the curse-killing method was very effective against it. If the life-sustaining worm were to come again, it would be instantly annihilated.

"How much can you compensate? I won't settle for anything less." Luo Feng said.

"Ten thousand Hunyuan Crystals, I am willing to pay ten thousand Hunyuan Crystals!" the Blood-colored Bug said.

Luo Feng sneered, "This bug isn't a clone, but it acts like one, and it's much more valuable than an ordinary weapon or treasure. I don't need many, just 200,000 Chaotic Source Crystals. If you give me one less, I'll kill him right now."

"200,000 Chaotic Source Crystals?" The blood-red bug exclaimed.

Too ruthless, asking for so much!

"I'll give you three breaths to consider. If you don't agree within three breaths, I'll kill him." Luo Feng didn't waste any time with him.

Previously, he had visited too many stores and had seen similar bugs.

After hearing the attendant describe the training requirements, Luo Feng estimated that the total cost of the opponent's training should start at 300,000 Chaotic Source Crystals, and it could even reach 500,000 to 600,000 Chaotic Source Crystals.

"Three, two..." Luo Feng looked at the blood-red worm.

"Alright." The blood-colored worm, though unwilling, ultimately complied.

"Give me some time, I'll bring the Hunyuan Crystal over soon." The blood-red worm said.

"You should know where my cave is, right?" Luo Feng said.

"Later, bring the Chaotic Source Crystal to my cave. You give me the Chaotic Source Crystal, and I'll give you this blood-colored worm."

After collecting the Chaotic Source Crystals outside, Luo Feng was still worried about being ambushed, so it was safer to collect compensation in the cave.

The blood-colored worm could only respond with grief and indignation.

Luo Feng nodded.

"Whoosh." Luo Feng didn't continue to wander around.

He immediately transformed into a streak of light, soaring directly to his cave dwelling.

This was a deal worth 200,000 Chaotic Source Crystals, so Luo Feng naturally had to take it seriously.

"Compensate me with 200,000 Chaotic Source Crystals?" The short figure in the distance gritted his teeth, but there was no other option.

"The internal intelligence of the organization is clearly problematic. This Luo Feng's methods are unpredictable and his numerous clones are too difficult to deal with." He quietly left as well, to prepare the Hunyuan Crystals.

"What? You were robbed, and you even trapped a special bug of theirs?" Di Qing looked at Luo Feng in surprise.

"That bug is quite formidable, sneaking into my inner world without a sound. However, while it can get in, it can't get out." Luo Feng chuckled.

Purely relying on the inner world indeed couldn't stop that bug, but the Heaven and Earth Clone is most suitable for merging with a realm, which is why it was able to imprison the bug.

If He doesn't have enough for compensation, Luo Feng will kill this special bug.

"You just arrived in Yulan City, and he already knows your name, which means the forces behind him are likely related to the elders of the Elder Palace." Di Qing pondered and said.

"Of course, the elders wouldn't be so idle as to target a newcomer like you. At most, it would be an order from their middle management. Brother Luo He, if you take those 200,000 Chaotic Source Crystals, they will definitely have their eyes on you." Di Qing said.

"Do you think we can't take it?" Luo Feng looked at Di Qing.

"The forces of these thefts are nothing to be afraid of." Di Qing said with a smile.

"We have clones coming out of the Origin World. Besides high-level Chaotic Source Beings, what is there to fear in life? Just be mentally prepared; they will try to undermine you in the future."

Luo Feng nodded.

The powerful beings who came from the Origin World often had clones in their homeland.

When they ventured outside the Origin World, it is usually their clones that would die in battle or lose their treasures.

Only by breaking free from the confines of the Origin World could they be soul-corrupted and die from a distance.

"While venturing outside, even if you are careful and try to avoid trouble, there will always be those who seek it out. These little troubles are not worth mentioning."

Luo Feng didn't care; since the other party had already targeted him, they would have to pay the price.

A moment later, a guest arrived at the cave entrance.

"Here they come." Luo Feng and Di Qing both stepped out together.

A figure in a black robe stood there, with mist swirling inside the robe. The mist twisted and also observed Luo Feng and Di Qing.

"Luo Feng, right?" The black-robed figure's mist twisted, "Are you sure you want 200,000 Chaotic Source Crystals?"

"You can choose not to give it?" Luo Feng looked at him, while Di Qing calmly watched the black mist beside him.

The strong who came out of the Origin World all had pride in their bones. If it came to a fight to the death, who would be afraid of whom?

"Very good." The black-robed mist nodded, and suddenly a bag flew out from the mist.

"Check it out, there are 200,000 Chaotic Source Crystals inside." Luo Feng reached out, took it, and used his consciousness to probe it. He nodded, confirming it was correct.

Immediately, Luo Feng focused his thoughts and expelled the blood-colored insect that was imprisoned within his inner world.

As soon as the black bug appeared, it instantly vanished.

The black-robed mist turned and left.

"I was ordered to deal with Luo Feng. I failed this time, and I can't bear the full cost of 200,000 Chaotic Source Crystals myself." The small figure said

The small figure and the black-robed mist figure returned together to the interior of the massive spherical creature.

The shadow in the black robe, shrouded in mist, glanced at his subordinate and said coldly, "Observing the prey is the most basic skill. You failed because your abilities are lacking."

The short figure felt quite aggrieved; it was normal to fail at stealing, and getting caught after hitting a dead end was also possible.

However, the cost of this failure was too high, losing a full 200,000 Chaotic Source Crystals this time.

"Remember not to fully trust the intel." The black-robed mist said.

"He took so many of my Chaotic Source Crystals, and just like that, it's over?" The short figure was quite unwilling.

"Di Qing is from the Origin World, and this Luo Feng should also be from the Origin World." The black-robed mist said.

"Don't act rashly against the God Emperors who have come out of the Origin World. It's not worth it to strike out for a moment of satisfaction."

The short figure seemed quite displeased.

You're not the one losing out! Of course, you don't care!

"You have to wait for the right opportunity, wait until the right moment to strike once... then let that Luo Feng truly feel heartache and regret." The black-robed mist glanced at the short figure.

"Powerful beings from the Origin World, a few clones don't affect them at all; we must seize their true treasures."

"You can keep an eye on Luo Feng. As soon as you find out he has news of a treasure, tell me immediately. Once we succeed, I'll give you one share." The black-robed figure instructed.

The short figure nodded; he was already looking for prey, so naturally, he would pay more attention to Luo Feng.

Just arrived in the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, the most lacking thing is the Chaotic Source Crystals.

After Luo Feng received this 200,000 Chaotic Source Crystals, he was quite pleased. Adding to the 100,000 that Di Qing lent him, he now had a total of 300,000 Chaotic Source Crystals, allowing him to indulge a bit.

Immediately, Luo Feng began a large-scale purchase, carrying no more than 5000 Hunyuan Crystals each time he went out.

After spending three days observing carefully and making dozens of purchases, using over 190,000 Hunyuan Crystals, he finally procured everything he needed and began his seclusion training.

Luo Feng looked at the many resources piled up in front of him. The most abundant were the remnants of innate chaotic source life form--either a vial of blood, a feather, or a bone.

Over three hundred of these remnants had been purchased, with an average price of around 300 Chaotic Source Crystals each.

Compared to the mysteries contained in the 'Eye of Life and Death' and the 'Star Tower', the mysteries contained in these low-level Chaotic Source lifeforms remains are much more superficial, slightly more profound than the complete Dao, and easier to understand.

Transforming these resources into strength, Luo Feng began to calm his mind and practice.
