Swallowing the Stars: Realm of Control

Chapter 52 The Truth

Thinking this, a cold glint flashed in Luo Feng's eyes, and his physical strength erupted at that moment.

Even without any rules to aid him, the perfect coordination of all the muscle cells in his body allowed him to reach the speed limit that his body could achieve.

call!

The figure arrived in front of Adamostel and slashed out with a sword, but the target was not Adamostel himself, but the sword in Adamostel's hand.

By using this method of leveraging someone's strength against them, I'm making him hurt himself!

Clang!

As the two blades clashed, Luo Feng unleashed his full power with this strike, skillfully transferring the force of his blade entirely to his opponent's.

It was clear that Adamostel's knife had indeed been subjected to a great force, making it somewhat difficult to control, but he only managed to retreat a dozen or so steps.

His knife did not slip and impact itself.

Although Adamost's knife skills were crude, this man who had lived for hundreds of years still knew the first principle of holding a knife.

Furthermore, since his sword was a precious artifact with a strong ability to deflect force, what could the force of this strike do? It completely caused his sword to go out of control.

At this moment—

"Adamostre, do not resist, I need your body."

After finishing his incantation, Germer's expression turned solemn.

He is at the third level of the Qi Manifestation Realm. Although he cannot yet gather his form to kill enemies from a thousand miles away, he can possess another body by using this formation and the mental power of another body.

The figure on the lotus altar transformed into a beam of light and instantly entered Adamostel's body; in that instant, his eyes changed.

At the same time, Adamostel took out a pill and put it in his mouth. Before long, a wave of energy emanated from him, and Adamostel's aura became visibly stronger.

Luo Feng's face was grim; having arrived here, he had lost all will to fight.

The guy in front of me, after being possessed, will definitely have a huge increase in strength. It's hard to say whether I can even fight against him.

but.

He wanted to escape, but Germer, who was behind him, saw it immediately and blocked Luo Feng's path with his body.

"Get out of here!"

Luo Feng slashed with an extremely sharp blade, but his opponent didn't even dodge or defend. Instead, he swung his blade back at Luo Feng's body.

Luo Feng had no choice but to change his tactics to defend himself.

Clang!

The two knives clashed.

The opponent had changed; his power was no less than Luo Feng's. More importantly, the magical longsword he was wielding was even more powerful and terrifying, causing Luo Feng to retreat several steps.

"How could this happen?"

Luo Feng sensed the strangeness of this world, which made his scalp tingle.

If he is stronger than his opponent, he can still have the initiative, since he can attack the opponent's weapon.

If his strength is only on par with his opponent, he will be at a complete disadvantage: his attacks will be easy for the opponent to parry or defend against, as long as they can avoid the attack and land it on him.

The initiative was lost all at once.

However, if the opponent's strength and power are superior to his, then the difficulty for him is hellish.

If it weren't for the limitations of Adamostel's body, this guy's strength would probably have increased even more. He should feel fortunate.

Before he could react, the body possessed by Germer had already charged towards him at a speed no less than Luo Feng's.

Luo Feng's face was grim; he could only focus on resistance.

"Why? Why can't my attacks hurt you?"

Luo Feng still asked the question with a look of reluctance.

Why?

Germer couldn't help but laugh.

He said with a ferocious and mocking expression, "Since you're about to die in this world, telling you won't hurt."

"You beings from beyond the heavens certainly have great potential, great talent, and great strength, but we Qi Spirit Clan, once we reach the Awakening Spirit Realm and condense a spiritual body, cannot be killed by you."

"The only way you can kill us is by using your newly created clones."

"It's a pity you gave up your clone. Without a clone, what good is your strength? You'll still die."

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng immediately understood.

It turned out that the rules of this world were at play. He once thought it was this cave dwelling and some of Adamost's methods.

Therefore, he has to pay close attention to the growth of his clone.

His clones are not tools, nor are they a transition; rather, they are his means of survival in this world. Without clones, he would be left to die if he encountered someone stronger.

Germer's next words struck Luo Feng's heart even more deeply: "Stop struggling. You so-called extraterrestrial visitors will not have a good ending once you enter this world. Your temporary strength is nothing more than a breath away. Your ultimate fate is the same: to die here."

A thought flashed through Luo Feng's mind: thinking about this sentence is useless.

He parried Germer's attacks one by one, but because he couldn't launch an offensive and was no match for the guy in strength, he was almost at a disadvantage.

Luo Feng never gave up the idea of ​​escaping.

If you can't win, then run away.

It wasn't that he couldn't escape; with his swordsmanship, it would be a joke if he lost to this guy.

His previous expression was just an act; he was just trying to get a reason out of me.

Luo Feng's swordsmanship suddenly changed.

Now that he knew the truth, there was no need for him to stay any longer. Although he still focused on defense, the change in the softness of his swordsmanship gave him a natural guiding ability, allowing his opponent's moves to be guided and manipulated by the power of the sword in his hand, thus creating some openings and opportunities.

Clang!

Having withstood Germer's attack with a single strike, Luo Feng suddenly unleashed a burst of Qi within his body, especially the power accumulated in his legs, which he then channeled downwards.

The powerful force of his legs suddenly increased his speed by 20%, and Luo Feng seized the opportunity after the clash of swords to rush towards the cave entrance.

"This is bad." Germer realized he had been tricked.

He hadn't expected that this guy would suddenly change his swordsmanship. He had never seen such exquisite swordsmanship before, and only now did he realize that he had been guided.

Seeing that the other party was trying to rush out during that opening, he immediately rushed after him.

Unexpectedly, everything was under Luo Feng's control.

Luo Feng realized that a knife was coming from behind, so he quickly turned around and used his sword technique to deflect the knife. He then used the momentum to rush to the cave entrance.

Without the slightest hesitation, he took off running.

Inside the cave, only Germer's rage remained.

His physical energy is too weak; he can't use his techniques at all.

His body instantly detached from Adamostel's, and he commanded, "Find a way to chase after him, see if you can catch up."

Adamostel nodded and immediately rushed out after him.

When he arrived outside the cave, Luo Feng's location had completely disappeared, and he had no idea which direction to go.

"Damn it, he still managed to get away."

"Lord Germer cannot leave the cave; otherwise, with his abilities, he might be able to catch up."

Having lost his way, Adamost had no choice but to turn back into the cave.

When Germer saw Adamostel return, he could understand, after all, that guy's speed had far surpassed Adamostel's.

"Next, keep an eye on your people and make sure they don't try to possess and refine any more bodies, especially those with Heavenly Apertures," Germer instructed.

Without a Heavenly Aperture, even refining an avatar is useless and offers little help. Therefore, the other party must find a way to refine someone who possesses a Heavenly Aperture. However, those who possess a Heavenly Aperture have generally awakened their Qi sense and have essentially cultivated to the level of a spiritual body. At this level, they are very difficult to refine.

Unless it is the first clone of an extraterrestrial visitor, which seems to be a protected being with the power to forcibly possess another's body, the first clone is the most unsolvable problem for their Qi Spirit Clan.

However, if the first one fails, refining the second one becomes very difficult.

"Yes, Lord Germer." Adamostel nodded repeatedly.

Germer nodded, a thought flashing through his mind: "Now that this guy has fallen under the jurisdiction of my Five Peaks Sect, it won't be so easy for him to leave this 'Peak Continent'."

Thinking it over, he looked at Adamostel: "When you get back, compile a list for me of all the people in your Maoshan Village who haven't undergone the Heavenly Aperture Examination, and include their portraits."

In the future, if anyone from Maoshan Village rises to prominence, this comparison will easily reveal whether they have been possessed and refined. As for the others, this extraterrestrial visitor will likely not be so easy to find if they wish to hide.
