#255 - Even without this...

Earth, Yangzhou City.

A misty drizzle filled the sky as Luo Feng and Xu Xin walked along a mountain path, chatting as if they had endless things to say.

They talked about everything from their parents to virtual games, from the family's prosperity to Luo Ke Di, from cosmic wars to alien assassinations, from the terraforming of Earth to the Zerg nest in Shennongjia.

As you requested, a castle has been built around it and is under strict guard.

Xu Xin said solemnly, "That place is indeed very dangerous. Even though the slave guards are watching very carefully, the Zerg nest occasionally emits poisonous fumes, and three slave guards have died over the years."

Luo Feng nodded.

The Zerg nest was a ticking time bomb. Ever since joining the Virtual Universe Company, Luo Feng had always kept it in mind. Thinking of the immortal-level Zerg nest on the capital star of the Meng You Empire, Luo Feng felt a surge of excitement. A Zerg nest that could produce immortal-level Zerg warriors was a nightmare for enemies.

Fortunately.

He had listened to Yang Wu's advice and invited the Gan Wu Country Lord to oversee it in advance, avoiding massive losses.

His two avatars had already advanced to the World Master level, and because they had received the Demon Sound General's inheritance, their mental power amplification was comparable to a King-level undying being.

The most stringent requirement of the 'Ten Thousand Hearts Soul Control Technique' in the treasure trove was the ability to multitask, with the highest level requiring the ability to multitask ten thousand times.

It was perfect for him.

So, on his way back to Earth, he had already purchased it and started practicing.

According to the description in the book, he needed to complete the third level of the 'Ten Thousand Hearts Soul Control Technique' to have the confidence to control a World Master-level Zerg nest with his World Master-level strength.

He needed to complete the fourth level of the 'Ten Thousand Hearts Soul Control Technique' to have a glimmer of hope of controlling an undying-level Zerg nest with his undying strength.

With Luo Feng's soul amplification intensity, practicing the third level, 'Hundred Heart Realm,' was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

The third level was about to be completed.

By then, enslaving a World Master-level Zerg nest would be a piece of cake, and with Yang Wu's avatar watching over it.

It was unlikely that any accidents would occur.

Xu Xin continued, "By the way, Feng, I have something else to tell you!"

"What is it?" Luo Feng asked curiously.

"Half a month ago, Yang Ge's servant, Suo Qilong, suddenly sent over a strange black metal plate. We've tried various ways to test it, but we still don't understand what it is."

"Oh?" Luo Feng's interest was immediately piqued.

Xu Xin had long since become a member of the Virtual Universe Company's business department, so if even she couldn't figure something out, it must be quite magical.

Moreover.

He didn't believe that Yang Wu would send over an ordinary item. "Where is that thing now?"

Luo Feng said with a smile, "Take me to see it and see what's so magical about it!"

"That thing is now in the family's No. 1 treasure vault!" Xu Xin said.

"No. 1 treasure vault, that's on Earth?"

Some ancient families in the universe would specially leave behind some treasure vaults to prevent the family from rising again in the future if it declined.

Some of these treasure vaults were deposited in banks, while others were hidden on inconspicuous or even unnamed mineral planets in the universe.

The Luo family's No. 1 treasure vault was located in the Luo family's old residence, and Luo Feng couldn't hold back any longer.

"Let's go, take me to see it."

The Luo Family's No. 1 Treasure Vault.

Inside one of the quiet rooms,

Luo Long and Zhou Ling were there.

He was playing with a pure black metal plate in his hand.

"What exactly is this thing?" Looking at the palm-sized black metal plate, the surface had some strange patterns, looking like it had been smashed and cracked.

Luo Feng flipped through the inheritance memories of the Golden Horned Beast, and also, through the permissions in the virtual universe, had Babata inspect it for a long time, but did not find any relevant information.

Finally.

Luo Feng decided to start using his own method to slowly study this black metal plate.

...

Just as Luo Feng was using invisible and intangible mental power threads to scan this metal plate.

A sudden change occurred.

Rumble ~

"Child, come!"

A grand voice immediately sounded in Luo Feng's mind, and his consciousness instantly fell into the illusion contained in that voice.

For a long time—

Until breaking through nearly ten thousand illusions, finally the endless chain of illusions automatically collapsed.

"Holy crap!

"This kind of illusion is really exciting."

Luo Feng, who was sitting foolishly in the quiet room, suddenly trembled, his face flushed, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, looking at the black metal plate in his hand, still with lingering fear from the illusion just now.

Each one pointed directly to the heart, one ring after another, continuous and endless, completely based on inner desires, making people fall into the illusion and unable to extricate themselves.

Luo Feng could completely feel that it was an illusion, but he couldn't forcibly break it. This illusion was purely bullying, just like an undying god teasing a student-level, knowing it was an illusion but only being able to go through it forcibly.

"It seems something has changed."

Luo Feng took a deep breath, and the mental power within the black metal continued to penetrate deeper. Suddenly, messages in the form of text continuously merged into Luo Feng's mind.

A moment later, the transmission of text messages ended.

Pacific Ocean, Sky Castle.

"I didn't expect you would come for this matter."

In the living room on the third floor of the main building, Yang Wu put down his teacup and looked at Luo Feng sitting in front of him, saying.

"What I said is true!"

Luo Feng didn't have Yang Wu's calmness, his expression was very serious instead.

"You… Stop! Don't say it out loud, use telepathy!"

Yang Wu reached out to stop him. If Luo Feng said it like that, the existence of the Nine Calamity Secret Manual might be exposed to the higher-ups.

"That black metal plate you sent contains a very mysterious cultivation manual, with a total of more than 30,000 characters, the entire text is incomplete."

Although he didn't know why Yang Wu did that, Luo Feng reorganized his words and continued to transmit his voice.

"As long as you practice this secret technique, you can promote the automatic evolution of your body's genes."

Luo Feng was shocked by the description of this secret technique when he first learned about it, because it was different from any secret technique he had come into contact with. Many secret techniques were methods of using laws, combat secret techniques.

He had never heard of a secret technique that could actively evolve the body's genes.

"Brother Yang, no matter what, this thing is too precious, I must return it to you!"

Luo Feng's expression was serious, and he took out the black metal plate to hand it to Yang Wu.

He knew that if he didn't say anything, no one would know about this, and this kind of secret technique that could defy the heavens and promote body evolution, transcending the rules of the universe,

It was definitely extremely precious.

No matter what, it must not be leaked, otherwise it would inevitably bring disaster, but at least he couldn't hide it from Yang Wu, which was also his principle.

Inside the living room.

Looking at the black metal plate that was close at hand, Yang Wu didn't reach out to take it, but silently looked at him. After a moment, he suddenly laughed.

"What's wrong, Brother Yang?"

Luo Feng looked at this scene, somewhat puzzled.

"Luo Feng, thank you!"

Before, Yang Wu's attitude towards Luo Feng was just a simple investment plus insurance, and recognition of the other party's character.

And now.

Yang Wu truly recognized Luo Feng as a true brother from his heart!

If he were in Luo Feng's position, he would never reveal any information about a heaven-defying opportunity like the Nine Calamity Secret Manual, and would even pretend that nothing had happened.

And even if Luo Feng didn't say anything.

Yang Wu wouldn't blame him, because he could also understand this approach, but the other party unexpectedly came and told him the truth.

"There are some things you may not be clear about."

Yang Wu stood up and came to the window, watching the white clouds floating by outside the window. "Your ability to obtain this secret technique is your own special opportunity. This is a special opportunity that violates the laws of the universe."

"This secret technique is far more heaven-defying than you imagine. Don't tell anyone else, and don't try to teach it to anyone."

"Why?"

Luo Feng was shocked. He had never seen Yang Wu speak so solemnly. The last time he was so solemn seemed to be when he was talking about the importance of Earth.

"It violates the laws of the universe, but it is not suppressed by the laws of the universe. You probably guessed the strangeness in this."

Seeing Luo Feng's thoughtful expression, Yang Wu continued.

"That's right, it's this black metal plate. The strangeness it possesses allows people to inherit the memories of this aspect without being directly erased by the laws of the universe."

"But if you tell others, their memories will be instantly erased by the laws of the universe."

Luo Feng listened in surprise.

Erase memories?

Luo Feng didn't quite believe it, and finally decided to try it out. He began to tell Yang Wu the contents through voice transmission.

At first, it was normal.

But soon Yang Wu looked blank. "Huh?"

Yang Wu's Destruction Beast avatar was so sensitive to the passage of time that he immediately understood that a piece of his memory had been erased in this short period of time.

"You even did an experiment on me?"

Seeing Luo Feng's expression, Yang Wu knew that the other party didn't believe it just now and had told him the contents through voice transmission.

"This is true."

Luo Feng was stunned at this time. Yang Wu smiled when he saw this.

"Your ability to obtain it is entirely your own opportunity. It has nothing to do with me, because this is its final choice."

After making a choice, Yang Wu could no longer worry about it.

He was a cheat!

Even without the Nine Calamity Secret Manual, he believed that his cheat could make his path smoother and lead him to an invincible path.
