High Martial Arts: Liver Becomes the Master of the Universe

Chapter 347 Ultimate Divine Marquis! Number One Among a Thousand Marquises! Huge Improvement!
……

silence.

Deathly silence.

On the battlefield, the aftershocks of the laws that had been boiling over due to the great battle seemed to be frozen at this moment.

In the human camp, a king who had just been grieving the fall of his dear friend suddenly raised his head, his bloodshot eyes fixed on the words, his lips trembling, but he couldn't utter a single word.

To reverse one's fate and become a king?

With the status of a marquis, he slew a... true king?

how can that be!

The difference between being granted a marquisate and being granted a kingship may seem to be only one realm apart, but in reality, it is an insurmountable chasm. It is the essential difference between the Dao Seal and the Law, a vast gap in the level of life.

Historically, there have been monstrous talents who were able to barely contend with newly appointed kings, but they were only able to contend with them, able to hold out for a period of time before finally retreating gracefully.

"Slaying" is a completely different concept!
That means that in a head-on confrontation, the weak triumph over the strong, completely annihilating a king who has mastered the laws of the universe!

Such things, in the recorded history of the universe, are like myths and legends, existing only in the oldest books, and are considered miracles that are almost impossible to reproduce.

But now, this miracle is happening right before their eyes.

The one who created this miracle was the young man they had just risked their lives to cover their escape—Qin Feng!
"Ha ha……"

A low laugh broke the frozen silence.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw the supreme commander of the human race, Devouring King, slowly raising his head.

The weariness and heaviness on his face vanished, replaced by an indescribable ecstasy and pride.

“Hahahahahahahaha——!!!”

The laughter grew louder and louder, eventually transforming into a triumphant roar that shook the galaxy!
The laughter contained gratification, excitement, absolute confidence in one's own judgment, and immense pride in the great achievements of one's disciples!

He pounded his fist on his chest, producing a dull thud like a drumbeat, and addressed the equally stunned Thunderstorm King and the group of human kings beside him, speaking each word with undeniable domineering power and joy:
"My disciple, Qin Feng!"

"Excellent! What a magnificent Limitless Divine Marquis! What a brilliant reversal of fate and the attainment of kingship!"

The Devouring King roared to the sky, and the pent-up frustration in his heart vanished.

While the grief of losing comrades is heavy, the potential and value that Qin Feng is showing at this moment give humanity a glimpse of a brighter future!

This is a... no, it's no longer a rising star.

This is a sun that has already begun to shine with its own light and heat!

The sun is bright enough to illuminate the path of humanity in the coming golden age!

He was filled with emotion, and the scene of him taking Qin Feng as his disciple after the Genius Battle came to mind.

He knew that this disciple's future achievements were limitless; he might become one of the top figures on the King Ranking, and even have a chance to reach the Emperor level.

But he never expected that Qin Feng's growth rate would be so fast and so terrifying!
"Top of the list of conferred titles... this is just the beginning."

The Devouring King muttered to himself, his eyes gleaming with intense light, "Once he has digested all his accumulated power and successfully transformed the Dao Seal into a Law, advancing to the King Realm... then the upcoming Golden Age will no longer be a perilous and bloody quagmire for him, but a broad and unobstructed road that he can traverse freely!"

He has this confidence.

What would it be like if a monster who could defeat a king at the Marquis level were to also step into the King level?

Ordinary kings would probably be no match for him, like clay chickens and earthenware dogs!
"The Golden Age... All Races Compete to Cross..."

A cold, sharp smile curled at the corner of the Devouring King's lips. "With Qin Feng by our side, our human race shall stand at the forefront, overlooking the glory of all ages!"

On the other side, Thunderstorm King also recovered from his initial shock.

Unlike the Devouring King's ecstatic joy and domineering aura, his face showed more of a heartfelt sense of satisfaction, like seeing his own junior achieve success.

He exhaled a long breath of stale air, which seemed to carry a trace of lightning.

"This is...unbelievable."

Thunderstorm King's voice was a little hoarse, and his thoughts involuntarily drifted back to a long, long time ago.

At that time, he was still the city lord of Thunder Universe City, ordered to guard the legacy of the Thunder Emperor.

A young man named Qin Feng fought his way through the perilous Lei Xiang Mountain to escort his daughter Zhou Yu, and finally arrived before him.

At that time, although Qin Feng had already shown extraordinary talent and composure far beyond his peers, in the eyes of a powerful figure like him, he was still just a "good seedling" worth paying attention to.

He admired Qin Feng's loyalty and righteousness and was optimistic about his future, but he never imagined that this "future" would come so quickly and so violently.

How long has it been since?

For these powerful figures who often secluded themselves for tens or hundreds of thousands of years, this amount of time was merely a fleeting moment.

In the blink of an eye, the genius who once needed his protection and wasn't even a domain lord has now grown to a level that even he has to look up to.

First on the list of those to be enfeoffed as marquises!

This is not a list from a certain cosmic nation or star system, but an ultimate list personally evaluated by the will of the universe, encompassing all races in the known universe!

Among all the marquises, he is undoubtedly the number one!

Title: Supreme God Marquis!
A remarkable comeback to claim the title!

Every word was as heavy as Mount Tai, enough to make all the geniuses of the time breathless.

"The younger generation surpasses the older generation..."

Thunderstorm King stroked his bushy beard and laughed heartily, his laughter filled with satisfaction. "Devouring Heaven, you've taken on a fine disciple. Our human race has produced a true prodigy!"

The morale of the human faction was completely ignited at this moment.

Smiles appeared on the faces of all those who were crowned kings; the sadness and exhaustion they had felt earlier seemed to have been greatly diminished by this earth-shattering good news.

They knew that as long as Qin Feng lived, the future human race would have an invincible pillar!

However, in stark contrast to the jubilation of the human race, the entire race camp was filled with an oppressive silence and a terrifying killing intent that seemed to solidify into reality.

When the words "Reverse Slash to Become King" appeared, all the kings of the myriad races were in an uproar.

"Who! Who has fallen!"

A demon king, his body engulfed in black demonic flames, roared in fury.

Soon, news arrived.

In the demon race camp, a newly appointed king named "Mad Slaughter King" had his life-giving soul lamp extinguished not long ago.

And this Mad Slaughter King was none other than the master of Blood Slaughter Marquis, whom Qin Feng had killed on Death Island.

His motive for hunting down Qin Feng is common knowledge.

The answer is self-evident.

"One person was granted a title...and killed a king..."

A queen from the Zerg race, her mental fluctuations filled with malice and coldness, declared, "This child must not be allowed to live!"

"The Path to Limits... The Path of Gods..."

A mechanical king, composed entirely of liquid metal, had its electronic eyes flashing with a dangerous red light. Massive streams of data were frantically processing within its core. "Based on database comparison, this child's growth curve has exceeded the 'monster' category and is defined as a 'threat.' Threat level: Highest. Recommendation: Eliminate him immediately, at all costs and using all available resources!"

If their previous pursuit of Qin Feng was primarily driven by greed for the divine arts inheritance and the Primal Flame he possessed, then...

Now, faced with the achievement of "reversing the odds to become king", a more urgent emotion has been added to the greed - fear!
They were afraid of Qin Feng's rapid growth.

What will a monster capable of killing a king at the Marquis level become if allowed to grow up smoothly?
They dare not think.

All they knew was that if they allowed this sun of humanity to rise, then in the future, all races would forever be shrouded in its shadow!
"He must be killed!"

"While he hasn't truly matured yet!"

"Issue a warrant! A warrant of the highest level!"

Amidst the chaos and angry murmurs, an ancient king from the Holy Light Clan, whose aura was unfathomable, slowly spoke. His voice was not loud, but it clearly reached the ears of every king of the myriad races:

"Everyone, please be patient."

He looked around and said coldly, "We all know that our race, the human race, and even the emperors, saints, and venerables of the major peak races in the universe are all carrying out cosmic will missions concerning the future fortune of their races in some special secret realms and battlefields."

Those tasks take precedence over everything else.

"In the short term, we cannot mobilize higher-level combat forces to deal with Qin Feng."

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over the heads of the kings.

indeed so.

The golden age is approaching, and undercurrents are already stirring deep within the universe.

Those truly powerful individuals who can determine the rise and fall of a clan are engaged in an even more brutal and crucial struggle.

For this reason, the title of King represents the highest level of conventional combat power that various ethnic groups can currently utilize openly.

"But... even the Mad Slaughter King was killed by him. Who among the ordinary Kings can guarantee that they can defeat him?"

One of the kings asked unwillingly.

A cold glint of shrewdness flashed in the eyes of the god-king: "Just because we can't kill him doesn't mean others can't."

He paused, then said, word by word, "In the common name of the Alliance of All Races, issue the highest-level 'Godfall Hunt Order' to the entire universe!"

"We're raising the bounty to an unprecedented level! In addition to massive resources, clan contribution points, and top-tier treasures, we're adding one more thing—"

"Any living being, regardless of race or origin, whoever successfully kills Qin Feng of the human race and brings back his Dao Seal Core will receive a chance to meet the 'Universe Venerable' and listen to his personal teachings, guaranteed by ten of our most powerful races: the Holy Light Race, the Mechanical Race, the Demon Race, and more!"

"hiss--"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.

The teachings of the Cosmic Venerable!

What kind of concept is that?

That is an existence standing at the top of the cosmic pyramid, whose every word and action contains the ultimate truth of the universe.

A single word of guidance from them is enough to enlighten a peak-level King and help them find the path to becoming an Emperor!
This kind of opportunity is something countless powerful people dream of, yet they can never obtain in their entire lives.

Would you use such a reward to offer a title of nobility?
This is truly unprecedented and will likely never be repeated!
"You're insane! You're all insane!"

"With such a bounty, those lone kings hiding in the dark side of the universe who will stop at nothing for resources, and those old monsters whose lifespans are nearing their end and who are going mad in their search for breakthroughs, will pounce on them like sharks smelling blood!"

"And then there are those geniuses who have also embarked on the path to godhood, but are suffering from a lack of cosmic treasures! For them, the [Primordial Flame] on Qin Feng's body is their only hope for achieving enlightenment!"

The god-king sneered, "That's exactly the effect we want. We want Qin Feng to become a piece of fat meat in the eyes of all ambitious people in the universe, a walking treasure trove!"

"Not only that!"

He abruptly changed the subject, his voice becoming even more sinister, "Spread the news immediately! Tell them that Qin Feng of the human race not only obtained the complete divine inheritance and possesses at least one complete divine technique, but has also refined one of the thirty-six [Primordial Flames]! He is the key to unlocking the divine treasure vault!"

"We want everyone to know that killing him is the same as getting everything!"

"The golden age is coming soon. The geniuses who have been sleeping for countless years and the monsters who have been sealed away waiting for their chance will all emerge from their dead ends and come to compete in this magnificent era."

"And Qin Feng, along with the treasures he possesses, will be our first grand gift to these awakened peerless geniuses!"

"No matter how strong he is, can he be stronger than an entire era? No matter how many people he can kill, can he kill all the madmen and ambitious people in the universe?"

"He is dead."

As the plan for the gods to crown a king was swiftly approved, an invisible net, centered on the Seven Heavens Abyss, spread across the entire universe.

Qin Feng, a human race member and a supreme god-marquis, defied the odds by defeating a king at the level of a marquis and ascended to the top of the marquis list.

He possessed a complete lineage of divine arts and had refined the cosmic artifact, the Primordial Fire.

Kill him, and you will receive a personal sermon from the Supreme Being of the Universe.

These three messages, like three nuclear bombs detonating in the universe, spread to every corner at an unprecedented speed.

Countless ancient beings who were in seclusion slowly opened their eyes.

Countless geniuses, who had sealed themselves within the divine source and awaited the golden age, shattered their shackles.

Countless bounty hunters, roaming the edge of the universe and licking blood from the edge of a knife, revealed greedy smiles.

The entire universe was utterly shaken and driven to madness by one person's name.

At the eye of the storm, Qin Feng was completely unaware of this.

He had just survived a life-or-death battle and was now silently licking his wounds in some unknown star system, preparing to digest the gains from the battle.

Unbeknownst to him, a far more terrifying pursuit, sweeping across the entire universe, had already quietly begun.

He has become the first... ultimate prey targeted by all hunters in this coming golden age.

……

Time passes silently, and stars and rivers flow.

On a Class C life-bearing planet called "Emerald Heart," located far from the central cosmic orbit and within the territory of the Sirius Universe Kingdom, three thousand years quietly passed.

Seventy percent of this planet is covered by pristine forests and azure oceans. The concentration of psionic energy is moderate, and its civilization is still in the early stages of interplanetary travel. To the vast universe, it is as ordinary as a grain of sand in the desert, utterly insignificant.

It is precisely because of its ordinariness that it has become an excellent hiding place.

Deep within a mountain range known as the "Emerald Dragon's Backbone" on the southern continent of the planet, inside a cave concealed by a natural illusion array and dense vegetation, a figure sitting cross-legged slowly opened his eyes.

What kind of eyes were those?

The moment it opened, it seemed as if billions of stars were being born and dying within the cave, with the chaotic energy of the beginning of the universe and the deathly silence of the end of all things alternating within it.

A single, unconscious glance caused the surrounding mountain walls, which were incredibly hard and comparable to high-grade alloys, to develop countless Dao-patterned cracks, as if they were about to be completely annihilated by the power of a higher dimension at any moment.

Qin Feng gently exhaled a long breath.

This breath, like a condensed white rainbow, shot out of the cave, soared into the sky, and instantly pierced through the clouds tens of thousands of meters above, forming a huge, ring-shaped void that lingered for a long time.

After three thousand years of cultivation, it has finally come to a complete and perfect conclusion today.

The price paid for defying the odds and being granted the title of king was far greater than imagined.

The backlash from the laws before the Mad Slaughter King's death nearly tore his [silver-white body] apart, and the origin of his Dao Seal was also violently shaken.

For the past three thousand years, he has not engaged in any high-intensity cultivation. Instead, like an ascetic, he has devoted all his energy to self-reflection and the insights he gained from that battle.

At this moment, his aura was completely contained, and he looked no different from an ordinary human. Only his eyes, which occasionally flashed with divine light, proved the earth-shattering power contained within this body.

"call……"

Qin Feng stood up, stretched his muscles and bones, and a terrifying sound, like the roar of an ancient dragon and elephant, immediately came from his body, causing the entire cave to tremble violently.

"My injuries have fully healed, and my foundation is now firmly established in the 'Divine Forbidden' domain." He muttered to himself, beginning a comprehensive review of his own condition.

"However, there is still a considerable distance to go before one truly reaches the level of being crowned a king."

Qin Feng frowned slightly, lost in deep thought.

Three thousand years of experience have given him a much clearer and deeper understanding of the "path to becoming a king" than before.

Being crowned a king is not merely an accumulation of power, but an ultimate leap in one's level of life.

Its core is to condense and sublimate everything one has learned, understood, and created, ultimately transforming it into a unique "law" that can be recognized by the will of the universe and permanently engraved in its name.

Your laws are the ultimate proof of your existence in this universe.

For other cultivators, the Dao Seal constructs a small world within their own body. But the laws of a King-level expert add a completely new rule to the vast universe.

“My path is the path of ‘limits’. My foundation is divided into two cores.”

Qin Feng had a sudden thought and looked inward at himself.

First, there is the Primordial Furnace located in the Dantian Qi Sea.

It represents devouring, forging, and unification, and is the source of Qin Feng's power.

Secondly, there is the supreme system that permeates his limbs and bones, penetrating into every cell and particle—the [Limited Body], constructed from hundreds of millions of top-tier secret techniques.

It represents bearing, creating, and immortality, and is the embodiment of Qin Fengdao.

"The path to advancement for the [Primordial Furnace] is relatively clear: it needs to absorb higher-level energy and matter, such as more [Primordial Fire] or the legendary Seventy-Two Divine Metals, in order to complete its transformation."

"However, it is extremely difficult for the [Limited Body] to be elevated to the 'Limit Law'."

Qin Feng focused his thoughts on his physical body.

His silver-white body is indestructible and impervious to all magic; its essence is a "humanoid mobile fortress" composed of countless high-precision and ultra-complex arrays.

These formations are the culmination of his knowledge and wisdom.

To upgrade this "fortress" into a "law" that can influence the rules of the universe, there must be a "base," an absolute core that can bear and govern all formations and elevate them from "tangible" to "intangible."

This core must be of extremely high quality, that is, the most supreme divine object in the universe.

"Seventy-two divine metals..."

A hint of helplessness flashed in Qin Feng's eyes.

Back in the Tomb of the Gods, he obtained a mysterious piece of black divine gold, whose toughness was beyond imagination. It is still being burned and refined day and night in the Primordial Furnace, but the progress is extremely slow.

For three thousand years, he had been accessing the vast, publicly available top-level databases within the Human Holy Academy by connecting to the cosmic network, and finally confirmed one thing.

"That piece of divine metal, although of extremely high quality, even surpassing the main material of many king-level and emperor-level treasures, unfortunately, is not one of the seventy-two primordial divine metals that constitute the cornerstone of the universe in legend."

This is a problem that is neither too big nor too small, but enough to block his path to promotion.

It's like building a towering divine structure. It has the most perfect blueprints (countless secret techniques), the most skilled craftsmen (Qin Feng himself), and a vast amount of high-quality building materials (various rare and precious materials), but it lacks only the unique Creation Stone that serves as the foundation.

Without it, everything is just a castle in the air.

"This is only what is needed for promotion to kingship."

Qin Feng's gaze went further, and his expression became increasingly solemn.

"When we reach the Emperor Realm in the future, both the Primordial Furnace and the Ultimate Body will need to undergo another transformation. At that time, both of them will probably require more than one type of divine metal and Primordial Fire as resources for advancement. The resources required for each step forward on this 'Path to the Limit' will be astronomical figures for ordinary cultivators."

The road ahead is more difficult than we can imagine.

However, if he succeeds, his strength will far surpass his peers, reaching an unbelievable and terrifying level.

The same applies to every divine path; without abundant resources, one can only reach the King level on a divine path.

This is precisely why the battles during the Golden Age were extremely fierce.

"However, one must eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time."

Qin Feng quickly adjusted his mindset, realizing that excessive worry was pointless.

He then began to assess his current actual combat strength.

"The reversal of the slaying of the Mad Slaughter King was no fluke. It was the ultimate penetration of the [Inch of Light], plus the doubled amplification of basic attributes by the first level of the [Nine Tribulations Battle Scripture], and the doubled amplification of the killing power by the first level of the primordial secret technique [Kill]. The combination of these three factors created that earth-shattering strike."

"That attack exhausted 99% of my strength at the time. This also means that my regular combat strength, or rather my ability to fight continuously, is far from being able to easily crush someone who has just entered the Kingship realm."

Qin Feng calmly analyzed: "All things considered, my current strength should be comparable to those ordinary kings who have been famous for a long time."

It can reliably kill those who have just entered the King realm, but if it is against those who have been immersed in the King realm for tens of millions of years and have a deep foundation, the gap is still huge.

As for those legendary kings who have also stepped into the 'forbidden realm'... I'm afraid I wouldn't even have the power to fight back."

"The gap in understanding and skill level is always the biggest divide."

This is a clear and objective self-positioning. Although he created a myth, he was not blinded by it.

"Fortunately, my greatest advantage is not my current combat strength, but my future potential."

A confident smile appeared on Qin Feng's lips.

"The Primordial Secret Technique [Kill] is already so domineering at just the first level. What if one could master the second and third levels? Its power would increase exponentially."

"The divine art [Nine Tribulations Battle Scripture] is all-encompassing and profound."

I haven't even fully grasped the basics of the first level, the "Conferring of Titles" chapter. The supreme theories it contains regarding Dao Seal amplification, physical tempering, and soul strengthening are like an inexhaustible treasure trove.

Every glimpse I glean from it allows me to deduce several entirely new, top-tier formations perfectly integrated into my [Limited Body] form.

These two supreme secret techniques are the greatest guarantee for his continued leap in strength in the future.

"call……"

Having sorted out everything about himself, Qin Feng's confusion dissipated, and the path ahead became crystal clear once again.

He removed the restrictions from the cave and stepped out.

After three thousand years of isolation, it's time to return to this magnificent cosmic stage.

Sirius Cosmic Kingdom, B-72 Starfield, Trade Transit Star "Anvil Star".

This is a planet that has undergone complete industrialization, with ninety percent of its surface covered by massive metal domes.

Beneath the dome stand towering skyscrapers that pierce the clouds, and anti-gravity airways that are like a spider web between the buildings.

Hundreds of millions of spaceships take off and land here, and beings from different races and civilizations conduct trade, exchange intelligence, and engage in various gray-area transactions.

This is a paradise for adventurers and a haven for fugitives.

Qin Feng walked along a bustling commercial street.

He changed into a simple mercenary outfit, concealing his aura to the extreme, blending into the bustling crowd of people of all shapes and sizes, completely inconspicuous.

Three thousand years is enough time for many things to ferment and settle.

He needs to stay informed about the latest developments in the outside world.

Huge holographic screens on the buildings lining both sides of the street continuously played various advertisements and news.

There are the latest warp drive spaceships, top-quality wines from the Elven planet, and recruitment information for a powerful mercenary group.

Suddenly, Qin Feng stopped in his tracks.

He looked up at the largest holographic light screen directly in front of him, which occupied the entire exterior wall of the thousand-story building.

That wasn't a commercial advertisement, but a wanted poster.

A "Godfall Hunt Order," the highest-level order personally issued by the Alliance of All Races, with the most striking blood-red background in the universe as its background.

At the center of the wanted poster is a lifelike projection of a figure.

The man had black hair and black eyes, a resolute face, and a calm, deep gaze—it was exactly like himself.

Below his projection, lines of text composed of Daoist runes emanated a chilling aura of killing intent:
[Target: Human, Qin Feng]

[Title: Ultimate Divine Marquis (Number One on the Marquis Ranking)]

[Known Abilities: Suspected to have mastered a complete divine magic inheritance; possesses the cosmic artifact 'Primordial Fire'; combat strength is rated as divinely forbidden; has a confirmed record of defeating a king who was previously enfeoffed...]

[Bounty:]

[I. Three trillion cosmic coins or equivalent resources from the Alliance of All Races.]

[II. Top-tier groups have contributed one billion points.]

[III. Choose any one top-tier King-level secret treasure.]

【Four,……】

[Final Reward: Guaranteed by the ten most powerful races, including the Holy Light Clan, the Undead Clan, the Starry Sky Beast Clan, and the Demon Clan, you will receive a chance to meet the 'Cosmic Venerable' and hear his personal teachings!]

……

This wanted poster was played openly and continuously, 24 hours a day, in the most bustling commercial center of Iron Anvil Star.

Countless creatures passing by would instinctively stop in their tracks whenever they saw this wanted poster, their eyes revealing a complex mix of emotions—awe, greed, or fanaticism.

"Tsk tsk, is this the legendary Limit God Marquis? To be able to kill a king at the Marquis level, he's a monster."

"So what if he's a monster? He's the enemy of the entire universe now! I've heard that even some ancient monsters that have been dormant for tens of millions of years have awakened, and their target is him!"

"More than that! Those ancient prodigies who also embarked on the 'Path of Godhood' are all searching for him like madmen. The [Primordial Flame] on his body is their only hope for achieving enlightenment!"

"The teachings of the Universe Venerable... My God, if I could get this opportunity, let alone becoming a King, I might even be able to break through to become an Emperor! Unfortunately, I don't have the fate to take it."

The murmurs flooded into Qin Feng's ears like a tidal wave.

He stood quietly, looking at his own face on the screen, the face that was wanted by the entire universe, without the slightest anger or panic.

He even... smiled.

The smile was faint, carrying a hint of understanding, a touch of amusement, and a deep-seated calmness hidden in his eyes, as if he were watching a play with a pre-written script.

Because all of this was within his expectations. In fact, it was part of his plan.

The reason he chose to settle in this star system is because it is still within the radiation range of the [Mount Eternal Life].

For three thousand years, he never thought of escaping this place of right and wrong.

Because he knew that his plan to fake his death required a sufficiently influential and believable "executioner".

Looking across the entire universe, no one is more suitable for this role than the Golden Emperor.

Qin Feng slowly turned around and merged into the crowd, his thoughts swirling in his mind.

"To be honest, compared to the Golden Emperor, I am actually more wary of those king-level geniuses who crawled out of the dusty archives and also embarked on the path to godhood."

The image of the Heavenly King's cold, desire-filled eyes flashed into his mind.

That was a terrifying existence who dared to challenge even an Emperor while only being at the King Realm.

He represents a different level of combat power. With the arrival of the Golden Age, monsters like him will be far from being the only ones.

These ancient prodigies possessed unpredictable methods and numerous trump cards, and each harbored an unyielding desire for the Primordial Flame.

Once entangled with them, it will be endless trouble, and even with the Twin Masks, there is a real risk of death.

The Golden Emperor is different.

Although he was powerful, a top figure among the emperors, his purpose was pure and direct—to kill him and eliminate his greatest threat.

Qin Feng also learned about his methods through the human intelligence network.

A powerful, predictable enemy is far easier to deal with than a group of unknown, insane enemies.

Or rather, it's easier to... exploit.

Qin Feng walked into a noisy tavern filled with mercenaries of various races.

He casually found a corner to sit down, ordered the cheapest beer, and while seemingly drinking it casually, he spread his vast mental energy like an invisible network, silently eavesdropping on all the valuable information in the tavern.

He quickly obtained the information he wanted.

"Mount Eternal Life... will open again in ten thousand years."

"At that time, the hundreds of thousands of powerful emperors trapped inside will be freed. The Golden Emperor will also come out to find me immediately."

a thousand years.

This period of time is neither long nor short.

"The original plan was to 'fall' at the hands of the Golden Emperor after being promoted to a marquis, thus faking my death and escaping." Qin Feng's fingertips tapped lightly on the rough wooden wine table.

"But now it seems that the plan needs some minor changes."

His progress exceeded his own expectations.

To die in battle at the level of a "divinely forbidden" marquis is certainly shocking, but it seems to lack a certain weight.

That wasn't enough to convince everyone that he had truly reached a dead end.

"Perhaps... I should be a little crazier."

An extremely audacious idea slowly took shape in Qin Feng's mind.

"Ten thousand years... If we can find one of the seventy-two divine metals before then, allowing the [Limited Body] to complete its final transformation..."

"Then, I will face the wrath of the Golden Emperor with the honor of being 'conferred a king'!"

With his extraordinary talent, newly promoted to the rank of King, he unfortunately encountered his destined enemy and ultimately died from exhaustion in an earth-shattering battle against the Emperor, his blood staining the starry sky...

Only a script like this is tragic enough, shocking enough, enough to make the whole universe sigh with regret, and enough to make everyone believe that this brilliant and talented God of Limits has truly fallen.

At that time, he can use the Twin Masks and the backup plan set up by his avatar "Vanguard" to completely hide behind the scenes and gain a precious period of time in the early days of this golden age where he can cultivate in peace without being disturbed.

Thinking of this, a glint of light flashed in Qin Feng's eyes.

He downed the rest of his ale in one gulp, stood up, and walked toward the information terminal in the corner of the tavern, which was used to post and receive various mercenary missions.

He wasn't there to accept a mission.

Instead, they seek, buy, and exchange.

In these final ten thousand years, he will use every means at his disposal to find any clue about the legendary "Seventy-two Divine Golds".

The final piece of the puzzle for faking death begins to be found right now.
