Devouring Stars, becoming Luo Feng's golden finger

"Alien warship wreckage?" Luo Feng thought, noting it in his mind.

A few minutes later.

The blood-red Honghuang-class fighter jet traversed thousands of miles, arriving at Hongning Base City from Jiangnan Base City, decelerating above a giant spaceship structure that was ten thousand meters long.

Luo Feng looked down, instantly stunned by this ten-thousand-meter-long, hundred-meter-high technological behemoth.

"Is this a real spaceship or a fake spaceship?" Luo Feng couldn't help but wonder.

At this moment, the blood-red fighter jet stopped in front of the giant spaceship's hatch. Luo Feng had no time to continue guessing. He lightly jumped from the several-meter-high air to the ground.

A woman in a black uniform walked out of the hatch, smiling as she approached Luo Feng. She said, "Luo Feng, the Curator asked me to pick you up. Please follow me."

Luo Feng followed the woman behind into the hatch.

"Beep!"

"God of War Luo Feng, please enter."

A cold electronic voice suddenly rang out.

The black-clothed woman, seeing Luo Feng's surprised expression, chuckled and explained, "Lord Luo Feng, only a very few high-level members of headquarters have the authority to enter and exit freely. Without permission and the Curator's approval, intruding into headquarters will result in being killed by the defense system here. Even Councilor-level experts cannot withstand the attacks of this defense system; they will be instantly killed."

Instantly kill Councilor-level experts? Luo Feng wasn't too surprised by this. After all, human-made laser cannons could kill King-level monsters, let alone the defense system of this suspected alien warship.

Following the black-clothed woman, they continued deeper into the spaceship structure. Finally, the two stopped outside a quiet room door.

"Lord Luo Feng, please enter." The black-clothed woman gestured.

Luo Feng took a deep breath, pushed open the room door, and stepped inside. What greeted his eyes was not a luxurious decoration. Within the two-hundred-square-meter space, there were no items placed except for two cushions in the middle.

A slender black-haired man sat cross-legged on one of the cushions. Upon seeing Luo Feng, he pointed to the cushion opposite him and said faintly, "Sit."

"Yes."

Subconsciously, Luo Feng responded and then silently sat down opposite the black-haired man.

Hong sized up this suddenly emerging 'peerless genius,' while Luo Feng was also sizing up the man known as the strongest on Earth.

Before seeing Hong, Luo Feng had been guessing what kind of man Hong was. But now, after seeing him, two words floated in Luo Feng's mind—

'Powerful'.

Under the formless and pervasive pressure of the other party, Luo Feng felt as if he had transformed into an ant facing a dragon!

A sense of powerlessness filled Luo Feng's body, even making his mind muddled.

'Not good.' Luo Feng suddenly reacted, biting his tongue and using the stinging pain to slightly clear his dazed self. Looking at Hong again, a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, Luo Feng finally understood why 'Bai' said that even if his strength increased a hundredfold, he wouldn't be able to withstand half a move from Hong.

Just the pressure of his aura affected him, an invincible God of War!

This was too terrifying!

"Luo Feng, you don't need to be discouraged. This guy is a Planet-level Tier 6. His basic strength and mental strength are more than a hundred times yours. Moreover, this guy has also mastered a domain that even Universe-level experts may not be able to comprehend. It's normal for there to be such a huge gap between you. Not to mention you, even ordinary Planet-level Tier 9 would only face death against this guy."

Bai Chen's voice rang in Luo Feng's mind. He didn't want to see Luo Feng's confidence being shattered.

However, Bai Chen underestimated Luo Feng. Not only was Luo Feng not discouraged by the huge gap between them, but a raging flame rose in his heart.

It was a burning desire to become stronger!

"...You are quite good."

Hong, seeing that the young man with a somewhat immature face had so quickly broken free from his mental influence and that his eyes seemed to be burning with 'fighting spirit' towards him, revealed a trace of surprise on his always calm face.

"You're called Luo Feng, right... Speak, what do you want to trade with me?" Hong smiled faintly. Although he was a little surprised by Luo Feng's mental resilience, beings who had reached his level of mental境界 rarely lost their composure.

"Going straight to the point?" Luo Feng took a deep breath, returning to a calm state. He said in a deep voice, "Curator Hong, what do you think of this?"

As he spoke, a jar appeared out of thin air in Luo Feng's palm, filled with red blood pills.

This move made Hong's eyes narrow. Was this a storage treasure? Could it be that this young man named Luo Feng had obtained a treasure from an undiscovered ancient civilization ruin?

Hong's heart stirred slightly. Storage treasures were extremely rare. He himself had only one space ring on the entire Earth, obtained from a dangerous ruin. He didn't expect to see a second one now. After a slight sigh, Hong shifted his attention from the storage treasure to Luo Feng's jar.

He saw Luo Feng pour out a blood pill from the jar and throw it to Hong. The latter caught it and began to carefully sense it.

"There is a very pure energy in this pill." Hong narrowed his eyes, looking up at Luo Feng. "Is this pill what you want to trade with me?"

Luo Feng nodded slightly and then shook his head, saying, "This is just one of them; there are others."

"Such as that treasure of yours that can store things?" Hong asked curiously.

"...This thing is not for trade for the time being." Luo Feng shook his head. He didn't have any storage treasures; that was 'Bai's' ability.

Because he often needed to trouble Bai to collect monster corpses, he had once asked Bai if he could create treasures like storage rings. However, Bai said that the universe's space was very solid and that creating a space ring required a lot of energy. He told him not to rush and to wait until he obtained a physical space ring to analyze its structure and collect some space materials. Then he could create an ultra-large space ring with extremely low energy consumption.

"Alright." Hong felt a little regret in his heart. His second brother didn't have a storage treasure, and he had originally planned to get one for Lei Shen. But since Luo Feng wasn't willing, he wasn't one to force others.

Pinching the red pill between his fingers, Hong swallowed it in one gulp, carefully experiencing the pill's effects.

With his powerful mental strength and the mental realm of being able to introspect himself, Hong could completely grasp the changes in his body.

After entering his body, the blood pill quickly melted, turning into streams of incomparably pure energy that traveled through his limbs, strengthening his skin, flesh, bones, internal organs, and cells...

However, this energy was too weak for Hong. It was completely digested and absorbed in just ten seconds.

"This..." Hong suddenly opened his eyes, a trace of surprise flashing in them.

With the special ability to introspect himself through the mental realm, his calculation ability was much more accurate than a punch force tester. Hong clearly felt that he had increased a hundred kilograms of strength!

A hundred kilograms of strength was insignificant for Hong, whose body strength was measured in tons, but—

No matter how insignificant, it did indeed increase his strength by a trace!

There were very few treasures on Earth that could help with cultivation. For experts who had cultivated to Hong's level, it became increasingly difficult to increase even a little strength.

Hong's gaze couldn't help but fall on the jar in Luo Feng's hand. With just one glance, he calculated the number of pills in the jar—'99' pills.

One pill increases a hundred kilograms, so ninety-nine pills would be nine thousand nine hundred kilograms... Still insignificant for Hong, but for experts below the Planet level, this strength was not to be underestimated.

"Will the effect of this pill diminish with repeated use?" Hong asked in a deep voice, his eyes burning with intensity.

He didn't ask Luo Feng how many of these pills he had. Since the other party dared to trade with him, he naturally couldn't just have this one jar; otherwise, he would be looking down on him too much. The number of these pills should be considerable!

Therefore, Hong focused on the pill's effect. As far as he knew, the effects of many natural treasures would diminish with repeated consumption, such as the Dragon Blood Potion. The first use had the greatest effect, the second use had half the effect, and the third use had almost no effect.

If this pill had a limit on the number of times it could be taken like the Dragon Blood Potion, then... it wouldn't move him.

Luo Feng, seeing that Hong's eyes and aura had changed, knew that the other party was interested. He didn't dare to be negligent and said, "No, at least I have taken hundreds of blood pills, and their effect has not weakened in the slightest."

Hong took a deep look at Luo Feng and then said, "I want as many of these pills called Blood Pills as you have. As for the price, I won't treat you unfairly."

"I don't lack money." Luo Feng shook his head. The wealth of Earth was almost meaningless to him now.

"Speak." Hong actually guessed that Luo Feng had gone to so much trouble to find him, so it was certainly not just to trade some paper money.

He was very curious about what Luo Feng wanted to obtain from him.

"All the cultivation secrets about mentalists, and I hope to exchange for some treasures from Curator Hong." Luo Feng said, emphasizing, "Treasures from ancient civilization ruins."

Hong looked at the young man and smiled, "Yes, that's not a problem at all. As long as you have enough of these Blood Pills, I can even give you the entire Limit Martial Hall."

Hong created the Limit Martial Hall not because he had a heart for hegemony, but purely because he wanted to cultivate more experts for the Earth to share the pressure on himself and Lei Shen. If he really had a heart for hegemony, he wouldn't have ignored things all year round and instead delegated power to the five great inspectors under him.

For Hong, who knew about the existence of cosmic civilizations and the situation on Earth, improving his own strength was always the top priority!

Hearing what Hong said, Luo Feng couldn't help but feel embarrassed, "Curator Hong, don't joke around."

However, the somewhat unfamiliar atmosphere had become much more harmonious because of Hong's joke.

"I'll show you the treasures I have here first, and you can see which one you want to exchange for." Hong smiled faintly and waved his hand. Three-dimensional virtual projections of various treasures immediately appeared in front of Luo Feng.

Luo Feng cast his gaze over, seeing that the virtual projections were divided into many categories: "Secrets," "Intelligent Fighters," "Battle Armor," "Weapons," "Elixirs," and so on.

Under each category, there were many physical projections. Luo Feng was dazzled by the various treasures.

"There are a total of 62 kinds of treasures for you to choose from. The price is marked next to each treasure. Take a look for yourself." Hong gestured, thinking for a moment and adding, "The value of one Blood Pill is calculated as 0.01 Star Units."

0.01 Star Units per pill?

Was that a lot or a little?

While Luo Feng thought to himself, he scanned the treasures. The first thing he noticed was the intelligent fighters.

King-level Intelligent Fighter: 2 Star Units

Qiankun-level Intelligent Fighter: 15 Star Units

Honghuang-level Intelligent Fighter: 60 Star Units

"The Honghuang-level fighter requires 60 Star Units?" Luo Feng's eyes lit up. He calculated that to exchange for a Honghuang-level fighter, he would need to spend 6,000 Blood Pills?

6,000 Blood Pills could increase 600,000 kilograms of strength, which was more than the basic strength of a peak High-level God of War, whose strength was between 256,000 and 512,000 kilograms.

Luo Feng looked at the other items again.

Battle Armor Category.

Black God Suit - 5 Star Units.

Effect: Can reduce the impact of attacks on the body to one-tenth of the original, and can be deformed and extended to a certain extent.

Good stuff! Luo Feng's eyes lit up. This was much more powerful than any SS-level combat suit. With this Black God Suit, plus his Netherblade's power magnification on his defense, his defense would immediately increase to a perverted level!

His life-saving ability would be greatly improved!!

He must exchange for this! Luo Feng noted it in his mind and continued to look at other treasures.

"Mentalist Basics" - 3 Star Units.

Must have!

Duntian Shuttle - 60 Star Units

Description: Mentalist weapon.

Must have too!

Dragon Blood - 1 Star Unit

Description: Can greatly increase body strength, the first effect is the best. (Side effect 'severe pain')

Get a bottle of this too.

Luo Feng scanned the exchange list, seeking the opinion of 'Bai' in his body and silently noting the items he needed to exchange.

After reading the last treasure, Luo Feng said, "Curator Hong, I want the Black God Suit, Duntian Shuttle, Dragon Blood, Mentalist Basics..."

Hearing Luo Feng rattle off the names of the items like he was ordering dishes, Hong's heart skipped a beat. Did this kid really have so many Blood Pills?

"If I had known, I would have raised the price of the Duntian Shuttle a little higher." Hong regretted a little. He originally thought that the price of 60 Star Units was already very high, after all, that was 6,000 Blood Pills.

He didn't expect this kid to not hesitate at all, as if he was buying vegetables.

But no matter how much he regretted it, Hong had the face of a strong person. He silently calculated the price of the treasures Luo Feng listed and finally said,

"It's a total of 84 Star Units, which translates to 8,400 Blood Pills."

"Curator Hong, do you have any alien warship wreckage here? I also want to exchange for some." Luo Feng thought of the Honghuang-level fighter, so he mentioned his needs together.

Instead of exchanging for a Honghuang-level fighter from Hong, it would be better to get the materials and let 'Bai' manufacture a strengthened version of the Honghuang-level fighter at a low cost.
