<h4>Chapter 1455: Land of Darkness</h4>
Trantor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In less than half a day’s time, Luo Feng arrived at Tilted Peak Sector, which had been surrounded by an endless water domain.
Hua!
Luo Feng dove right into the waters and immediately teleported toward his targeted venue—he advanced towards the “space of wings.”
Earlier on, the “space of wings” was where he had obtained the pair of white wings and the origin! If he had taken the usual route to get to the Land of Darkness, he would have had to enter that mountain peak and charge through the vast region within the peak to finally enter the core. However, by taking another passage via the space of wings, he could reach the core immediately.
“The first time I came here, I was very careful.”
Maneuvering Star Tower, Luo Feng drove through the space of wings and entered another passageway. He was already very familiar with the ce. Previously, during the time when he was trying to achieve the breakthrough to get his godly body to the third level, Luo Feng had taken this passageway several times to get to the Land of Darkness.
“Previously, this was where I got the ‘origin.’ If I can get ahold of another origin, that would be great. But such things are always happening by chance. It’s not as though I can simply get one by asking for it.”
Luo Feng shook his head with a sigh. The origin was very powerful; it was important to note that even for a true god of void space, it was a difficult task to destroy a true god weapon (supreme true treasure), yet with the help of Shi Wu Wings, which could release a billion beams of de rays, the origin was able to destroy such a true god weapon.
Luo Feng definitely wanted to get his hands on more such trump cards. This was why, as early as the billionth era, while he was in the World of Jin, he had once requested that General Harmonious Snow execute his automaton-type treasure to transform and store his godly power, then attempt to bring this stored power out of the World of Jin.
A pity… The moment the power was exposed to the outside world, the transformed power had automatically dispersed and had been annihted.
“The intangible, supreme universew exerts its influence over everything,” Luo Feng muttered to himself. “Within the World of Jin, all the great beings were not able to get out. If they set foot outside, they are bound for death. Even the transformed godly power cannot be brought out. Only some lifeless objects—like weapons, treasures, blood, skin, and hair samples—are allowed out of the World of Jin. If only General Harmonious Snow and his warriors coulde out, then that great army of Sector Beasts would have been annihted ages ago.”
The Sector Beasts might have been very powerful, but they were, after all, still in their breeding period. To the various races of Universe Ocean, it was a great crisis. But to the World of Jin… it would have been a breeze. Sending millions of true gods aboard Jin Luo Universe, they could have swept out the entire Sector Beast nest. Or perhaps if eternal true gods were to be sent out instead, they could have swept out everything, too. Unfortunately, all of them were stuck in the World of Jin. Obviously, all of these were under the influence of the intangible, supreme universew.
“When the Jin nation was destroyed, all lives of the World of Jin became trapped win that miniature universe for eternity, forever void of the chance toe out.” Luo Feng shook his head andmented.

Sou!
Star Tower barged about in a rampage, at times teleporting, at times flying at high speed, paying no heed to safety or dangers. Of course, there were scary regions that one would not be able to leave the moment they fell within, such as “Three Extreme Abyss” and “Icy Wind Devil Cave.” These were ces that even Luo Feng had to take a detour around. These were ces known to be thends of nightmares. Maybe he had the ability to escape upon falling in, but he was not ready to take the gamble! If he was really stuck in there, it would be a dumbfounding turn of events.
Amidst the red-hotva, Star Tower continued to advance.
Flying out of theyer ofva, far into the distance, it was approaching the endless whirlwind whirlpool. Every whirlwind was like a de of light from a super great being, with an incredibly powerful tearing force. Star Tower was, undoubtedly, able to charge in easily. Even though it was not affected by the influence of the whirlwind and was able to stay on course, Luo Feng took an extra step in borrowing the strength of these whirlwinds to propel Star Tower ahead at an even faster pace.
“It is the 10,000 Waves water region ahead!” Luo Feng said to himself. “After I get to the 10,000 Waves water region, I will be near the Land of Darkness. Zhen Jia Emperor and Dragon Rock Ancestral God are both at the 10,000 Waves water region.”
Luo Feng had been here multiple times. Secretly, he had chanced upon the discovery that both Zhen Jia Emperor and Dragon Rock Ancestral God were at this ce. However, to avoid attracting unnecessary attention from the Sector Beasts, Luo Feng had not made any moves. Compared to the Sector Beast crisis, both Zhen Jia Emperor and Dragon Rock Ancestral God were merely ants that were not worth a dime of attention.
“When I am in a true confrontation with the Sector Beasts, and there is time to spare, I will just end it with you two along the way.”
Hong! Long!
Star Tower flew right into the 10,000 Waves water region without pause, then started to close on the Land of Darkness. The faraway boundary of this vast water region was shrouded in total ckness. It was a kind of darkness that would bring shudders to the human soul. When the Sector Beast was yet to be born, if one were to fall into the deep abyss of this Land of Darkness, they would be lost for eternity. Escape was almost impossible.
Generally, many would just roam about the borders, or if some universe masters had other bodies, they might dare to step into the abyss because even if that body were to die, it would only mean losing one of their multiple bodies.
“Morosa.” Star Tower came to a halt at the border of the Land of Darkness. Luo Feng looked far off into the distance, where the sight of endless darkness greeted him.
******
Within Luo Feng’s miniature universe…
“Morosa, hand me the star map of the Sector Beasts’ nest,” the godly powered avatar said. “And also, the positions of every single one of those millions of Sector Beasts—indicate them on the map.”
Morosa replied with great deference, “Yes, Master. But Master, I may be able to remotely detect the position of every Sector Beast, but the distance between them is far too great, so the coordinates I give can only indicate an approximate region. It is already scaled down to a smaller area. The degree of precision won’t be very on-point.”
“That will do.” The godly-powered avatar nodded.
As Morosa carefully tried to detect the location of the other Sector Beasts, traces of Sector Beast power also started to dissipate from the surface of his body to be suspended in midair. These traces of Sector Beast power condensed to form a huge sphere with a diameter of around one million kilometers.
“The entire Sector Beast nest has be a sphere,” Morosa exined. “It has the ability to affect all the senses; if any of you true gods from the Universe Ocean fall deep into it, you all be lost within it.”
Thereafter, that sphere, with a diameter of one million kilometers, started to show specks of light, and around every speck was a halo. There were countless such spots.
“Every spot of light here represents one Sector Beast,” said Morosa. “The area that the halo spreads out over is the region where the Sector Beast might possibly be found. This is the best I can provide: an approximate region for every Sector Beasts’ location.”
Shortly after, on the gigantic Sector Beast nest model, some mountain ranges and rivers started to emerge.
“There are other material objects to be found in the Land of Darkness. I may be your servant, but I am unable to detect your whereabouts, my Master.”
The godly-powered avatar nodded. It was difficult to detect one’s whereabouts within Universe Ocean, which was why there were often incidences of individuals getting lost within Universe Ocean. Even though Morosa was Luo Feng’s servant, it was unable to detect the exact location of Luo Feng’s whereabouts. On the contrary, it would be able to detect the locations of all the other Sector Beasts. This was a talent that these Sector Beasts were born with.
“Master, you may want to rely on the mountain ranges, rivers, and gigantic mountain rocks to determine the coordinates of your own whereabouts,” Morosa suggested. “Of course, you can also rely on the location of the Sector Beasts to help determine your own whereabouts. The only problem with this method is that the beasts will discover you easily. Presently, the number of Sector Beasts, excluding myself, reaches a total of more than 9.2 million.”
“Very well,” said the godly powered avatar. “Please mark out and indicate for me the location of 10,000 Waves water region.”
“There is no way I can mark that out,” Morosa said. “After the Land of Darkness takes a spherical form, internally, it is revolving very slowly and continuously every moment. Rtive to the revolution on the inside, some mountain ranges do not change locations. But to the outside world… the Land of Darkness is ever-changing. Thus, it is easy to lose one’s way within the Land of Darkness.”
“In that case,” the godly-powered avatar replied immediately, giving its orders, “you must continue to sense them carefully. When those Sector Beasts change location, you have to change the model ordingly to ensure that you are in tune with the changes all the time.”
“Yes, Master.” Morosa showed absolute obedience.

“Go in.”
Star Tower was at the border of 10,000 Waves water region before it finally flew straight into the endless darkness. Star Tower was shrinking.
Luo Feng carefully controlled Star Tower. Although it was said to be darkness, to a strong being like Luo Feng, dark was no different from light. Through his influence over time and space, he could still see clearly what was far in the distance.
“Dead silence.” As though there is nothing at all.”
Luo Feng held his breath. He did not dare to be the least bit careless.
At that very moment, he was very unclear about where he was. He needed to rely on the reference points within the Land of Darkness to understand what was around him and what was happening, but the period before he found those reference points… was the most dangerous time.
“I hope that by being ‘Invisible and Formless,’ will not be discovered by the Sector Beasts. The moment I am discovered, my first n will have failed.”
After all, there were more than 9.2 million Sector Beasts now. It was too densely popted in the nest. It would be just like how Huge Axe had been annihted shortly after falling into the Land of Darkness, or how Hong and Eye Devil God were discovered shortly after they entered. It was almost a given fact that Luo Feng was bound to be discovered, too, so he could only pin his hopes on the power of being Invisible and Formless—and seeing if the Sector Beasts would overlook any loopholes.
“Hide!”
Star Tower vanished, and Luo Feng appeared within the void space. Soon after, his body transformed.
“Change!”
A floating stone was charging toward the Land of Darkness, sometimes teleporting, sometimes just floating. This stone was void of life, just like an ordinary mountain rock.
As it was advancing, it was also sensing the space ripples. Luo Feng knew that his teleportation distance could be much further than the Sector Beasts, and naturally, he could detect things over a longer distance. If he did not detect anything amiss, he would continue to teleport again and again.
“Huh?” Luo Feng felt a sudden shock and immediately stopped.
A short momentter—
Hua!
A hideous-looking Sector Beast teleported over. Relying on its ability to detect things in space, it had discovered the presence of the rock right away.
“Eh?” The two singr, bloodshot eyes stared at the rock. “Why is there a rock here, suddenly out of nowhere? Could it be a piece that flew over from the mountains that copsed and shattered when the other fellows were fighting one another? Humph!”
This hideous-looking beast stomped on the rock without warning. With a loud sound, the rock shattered into many pieces. The Sector Beast disyed indifference and left.
Luo Feng started to detect around him again. After waiting a long while after the Sector Beast left, he said, “Condense!”
The rock condensed again, but this time, upon transformation, it took on a different look.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
Once again, he teleported to advance.
******
This was how Luo Feng carefully relied on his “Invisible and Formless” power to avoid being discovered by the Sector Beasts. He had encountered three Sector Beasts in total, and based on their locations, he determined his own approximate coordinates. Then, finally, he arrived at a certain spot on that floating mountain range.
This mountain range was a trillion kilometers tall. Rolling on, it floated amid the air in thend of Darkness.
Hu!
A piece of rock fell from the mountain range and instantly took on human form.
Luo Feng heaved a sigh of relief. “My location is now confirmed.”
Determining his coordinates was only the first step.
“Depending on my ability to stay Invisible and Formless, the Sector Beasts cannot recognize me,” Luo Feng said to himself silently. “However, the moment I start fighting the Sector Beasts… the moment one Sector Beast discovers me, it will be the same as being discovered by all the Sector Beasts. By then, I will be forced to execute another n.
“It’s fate’s call. I can only sneak-attack one Sector Beast. In that case… I can destroy the leader, and his gang will be the next to fall. Since I can only sneak-attack one of them, I shall choose ‘Beddy’!”
A look of aggressiveness shed in Luo Feng’s eyes. Earlier, Morosa had specially marked out the whereabouts of the 100 most powerful Sector Beasts in the nest, and the most powerful one of them all was none other than Beddy.
