Chapter 862: Ancient Clock
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
When the name of Blade River emperor spread about, many emperors that Luo Feng had gotten close to immediately contacted him. They were incredibly passionate with their greetings. Luo Feng initially still dealt with them, "I was forced to do so, Blood Beast and Heavy Arrow both wanted to kill me. I had no choice but to give my all! Hence it ended up like that."
"Luck, just luck."
"Haha, thanks."
After dealing with some friends, he couldn't be bothered anymore and shut off his virtual universe reception.

Within his internal world.
A silver armored Luo Feng stood at the peak of a mountain, looking at the few treasures that laid there. Those emperors had ancient robes, powerful weapons and seemingly special perfect armors and some world and space rings. Luo Feng's gaze naturally landed on the ancient clock.
"Ancient clock." Luo Feng thought, "I better examine this carefully."
To examine this ancient clock, he sent his earth body into the internal world. As for outside…he let the golden horned beast with the Sha Wu wings lay hidden within a cave. In terms of strength, the beast was much stronger than his earth body, as it didn't fear any warriors outside.
"These words…"
The ancient clock had countless complex words on it, they were blocky letters but not like any he had seen before.
"Babata, do you recognize these words?" He asked mentally. Babata had frequently searched through the virtual universe network, and any language that Luo Feng could search for with his status had been completely memorized by Babata.
"I know countless languages, yet I haven't seen this one before." Babata replied.
"Ah."
Luo Feng nodded and didn't ask anymore, and gathered his focus on the clock. It was about 3m tall and had a diameter of close to 3m. There were also countless words on it. From the looks of it…these words seemed to have some relationship, almost like a formless thread weaved through them, forming peculiar engravings.
"I don't understand it." He shook his head.
"I'll first meld with it." He gently touched its body. A heat wave pulsed through him, almost like a soldering iron, he immediately sent spirit energy in. The ownerless clock swiftly absorbed the energy and easily recognized Luo Feng as its new master.
Rumble…its consciousness howled.
An ancient message poured into Luo Feng's mind before it finally stopped.
"Battle technique, Demon note Flame god clock?" Luo Feng frowned. A technique on how to use the clock pulsed through his mind, however all he got was the first level. Only when one had completed this first level would he be able to read the second level.
However the requirements for this first level alone were extremely harsh. It required one to comprehend the fire and space laws well to make progress.
"It's no wonder Purple Clock could control the force of the flame god crystal explosion that way to kill Gold Cang. He should have completed the first level." Luo Feng muttered. "Just the requirements for the first level alone are so high. Looks like this is a treasure suitable for knights."
Luo Feng's perspectives were incredibly high, like these items that were incredibly strong right from the beginning, which had harsh requirements too, obviously it was suited for warriors to grow to knights before using.aaawassss
"Fusion!"
Luo Feng tried fusing it into his body, but it seemed to be stopped at his skin level. The general armor imprint on his body shook violently.
"Hm?" He frowned. With a thought, the silver armor vanished and he forced the General armor pearl out. at this point, he was only wearing the cloud contact armor. He tried fusing with the ancient clock again.
Hu!
In an instant, the clock melded into his body, into his muscles and organs, becoming one with him.
"So it's like that." He shook his head, "This ancient clock is worthless to me, it's such a pity."
The clock was indeed a true treasure. I could diffuse 90% of soul and physical attacks! It's defensive abilities seemed to be on par with the General armor. Of course, the general armor gave him the strength of 10,000 sector lords…this was something the clock didn't have, however the general armor had harsh requirements for usage too. Other humans couldn't even use it. But the ancient clock didn't have such problems in recognizing its owner, as long as one sent in his spirit imprint, that would do it.
He had to admit that this was a true treasure.
And a priceless one at that.
But it was useless to him.
Because defensive items had ultimately limited usage. For example, those that could meld with his skin meant that he could only wear one of these. It wasn't such that…one warrior could simultaneously wear ten to hundred armors. The general and soldier armor pearls melded into the muscles and organs etc, that meant he could only have one at a time.
It was impossible…
For one to wear several king armors, general and soldier armors together. To wear another, he had to first force out the previous one.
To meld with the ancient purple, he had to force the general armor pearl out!
The logic was the same, similar defensive items couldn't work together.
The general armor and the ancient clock, Luo Feng could only pick one at a time. He would naturally pick the general armor.
"This is definitely a treasure, one that is used by knights." He said softly. "It's a pity that I have the general armor already! The golden horned beast even has the stronger king armor! These armors are better suited for me…"
...
Even though he was somewhat disappointed, he was still very happy, as this was still a true treasure. In terms of price it should far exceed the 560 billion, and he had another thought…True Yan had always been good to him, this may help him.
"Let's see my other rewards." Luo Feng instantly left the internal world and entered a world ring.
A vast desert was within the world, and there lay a powerful undying body. Even in a comatose state, the formless pressure…was still as terrifying.
"Heavy Arrow emperor."
He smiled and faced him. "Back when you were heavily injured, you chose to self destruct. If you did so…countless years later you may be revived, even though you'll have to pay a huge price. However, after becoming my slave, you'll never have that possibility. Back then you still had the hopes of fleeing, you didn't expect the three thorns of the cloud contact vine to pierce your body, forcing you into a comatose state."
It was extremely rare for such a thing to happen.
Heavy Arrow didn't expect the cloud contact vine to pierce his body and corrode his undying body, forcing him into a coma.
"From today on, you'll become my slave." Luo Feng looked at Heavy Arrow before him, nad unleashed the 10,000 soul control technique. Unlike controlling the bug queen Alina before, even though she too was in a comatose state, that was a technique Hu Yan Bo had used on her.
The moment Luo Feng used his move, Alina awoke and began to resist.
Heavy Arrow however was seriously injured, and he had lost his consciousness. Right now he was like a fish waiting to be sliced, with no resistance whatsoever.
In an instant…
"Success." Luo Feng smiled.
However as he looked at Heavy Arrow lying there lifelessly, he frowned. Right, he had control over Heavy Arrow, but it did nothing to help his injuries. He was still in a comatose state from his injuries, like this, Heavy Arrow was useless to him.
"I have to recover his strength and his undying body." Luo Feng pondered. "There are many treasures in the universe that can help his recovery, but they are all extremely expensive. How much should I spend to recover this emperor limit slave, is it worth it?"
"However, this is an absolutely loyal slave, who is able to teleport. With him helping me, my exploration of the universe will be much more convenient."
"I'll first go research."
******
He had killed fourteen emperors in total this time. A few armors, weapons and treasures in world rings added to a lot. Like the silver armor Purple Clock wore, this alone was worth fifty billion in the Hong alliance city shops, as it was capable of diffusing 50% of physical attacks!
50% and 90%, it may seem small in difference.
In truth, diffusing 50% allowed Purple Clock's defense to double. Diffusing 90% meant ten times the defence! It was obvious that the ancient clock, general and king armor, these were all extremely priceless. The general and king armors could be used in many ways, and their prices were definitely shocking. Even so, the king armor was still only regarded as being worth fifty billion in the Hong alliance treasure shop.
...
Luo Feng spent two days through the virtual universe network and Hong alliance before finally confirming the price of his goods.
Heavy Arrow's wealth was worth about sixty billion mixed elements (Luo Feng took off his ring and forcefully broke into it to take his treasures.)
The wealth of the thirteen emperors added together was about fifty billion mixed elements.
Purple Clock's wealth was worth about 120 billion, not counting the ancient clock!
In total.
230 billion mixed elements plus the ancient clock!
"It's still best to deal with powerful warriors like Purple Clock, as the rewards are much higher." Luo Feng muttered. "After killing the normal emperors, thirteen of them only gave me fifty billion, and it created such a fuss. The more I kill them the more I'd attract the attention of the super beings."
"Hmph."
"Purple Clock type of warriors are the best. However, these special encounters warriors usually have powerful trump cards." He thought, "Killing them is hard too."
"Like me, whoever kills me would truly strike it rich."
"But killing me wouldn't be that easy." He thought, "If forced into a critical situation, I can call for the primal chaos city leader to save me! The moment he appears, anyone would be stunned! Seems right, the Sha Wu wings are such a treasure, I only got it because he gave it to me. If it weren't a gift from such a super being, stealing it would only be a dream."
Stealing the ancient clock was still possible.
But the Sha Wu wings? That was but a dream.
"If I have to let him appear, I would be too much of a failure." Luo Feng shook his head.
"What should I do now, how should I deal with these goods and the sleeping Heavy Arrow?" Luo Feng had more problems now, but fortunate problems.
