Battlefield seven, twenty sixth camp, above the snow capped peaks, a silver armored and winged Luo Feng stood. He was discussing with the staff from the Virtual Universe Company.

This scene was seen by two distant emperors.

"Look, the human Yang."

"It's him."

"All the other race warriors from the other camps in Yan Ji continent have all gone crazy searching for him. No one would expect him to be hiding here in the camp. Ha…the other race warriors would never be able to find him. Even if they knew he was here, they couldn't do anything."

"Do you…think that Yang actually got the treasure from the sacrificial tower?"

"I've been to the tower personally to check and there were battle scars about, it should be true."

"This Yang sure is lucky. Look, he's discussing with the staff from the Virtual Universe Company, he must have bought countless treasures."

"What's the point of being jealous, he got the treasure, what can you do about it?"

"Right, I cannot do anything, who would dare make a move on an ally? However I dare say…if it weren't for the army system, there would probably be other humans making a move on him."

The two other race emperors gazed at the mountain peak hundreds of km away. With their vision, they could see every hair on Luo Feng's face even at such distance.

They watched as they discussed.

...

The news of Yang being in the twenty sixth camp spread quickly, causing the many other race warriors on Yan Ji continent to curse.

"Coward!"

"Weakling!"

"Cowardly punk."

"This human is actually hiding in the camp, bastard!"

"Let's go, leave Yan Ji continent! This human is so scared he's hiding in the camp, what can we do? Even knights cannot do anything, we are just wasting our time. Let's hurry back to star tower! There may be other treasures there!"

The many warriors began to grow disappointed. They had guessed before that the human Yang may leave after getting the treasure, however they never got accurate information, and didn't trust one another.

Afterall, the chances of getting treasure in the outer region wars were extremely slim.

"Human!" Purple Clock raged within a cave. "Prudent and yet cowardly."

"However, you hiding in the camp will make the others see you as even weaker, and it confirms that you have the treasures!"

"However, I do know…"

"Your cowardice is all an act." Purple Clock had been extremely alert about Luo Feng. He had battled with him before, and throughout the treasure hunt in the tower, Luo Feng had remained low profile. Yet he never backed down in face of danger, knowing when not to hold back, "Knowing the right time to act, and vicious at the the right moment."

"Human Yang, what are you waiting for?" He muttered, "Waiting for the right chance to deal with me? If you want to make a move, hurry and do it."

He had a feeling, that the human Yang was simply waiting for the opportune moment…

The two would eventually fight!

******

Within a specially crafted world ring.

Vast grassland.

Black clothed Luo Feng sat crossed legged, his expression serious as he looked at the black briefcase.

"Fei Mo poison!" He muttered. Within this case was the terrifying and expensive Fei Mo poison. He only had ten billion left from the 560 billion. He had almost spent everything and of which, the most expensive thing he bought with 300 billion mixed elements was this one kg of poison.

"Careful."

"Any leakage and my Mosha body will be destroyed." Luo Feng took a deep breath. He didn't even dare deal with it in his internal world, he was worried that any leak would cause the world to crumble, that would be an unjust death.

The mosha body was within the world ring.

His body could be produced again even if it fell, and this was a new world ring. Even if it crumbled, it meant nothing.

"Open." Luo Feng gently opened it.

Pa!

The black briefcase opened and revealed ten crystals, every one of them brimming with terrifying purple liquid, flowing about.

"Fei Mo poison, ten vials, and every one with one hundred drops of Fei Mo poison." His eyes gleamed.

Fe Mo poison: Just one drop was worth 300 million mixed elements. A powerful chemist from humanity Fei Mo had created this, hence the name. It was a powerful corrosive agent, specially used to corrode undying bodies. Normally ten drops was enough to kill an emperor limit. As for one hundred drops or one vial, was able to kill an invincible emperor like True Yan.

Its power was terrifying.

But its weakness was obvious.

Firstly, it was a one time use item and diminished easily.

Secondly, it only works after making contact with the undying body, most warriors all wear armors and the poison has no effect on armors. Hence, one has to tear through the armor and let it touch the enemy's skin. Or attacking a place that wasn't protected like the face…

Also, it was a liquid that had to be carried by an agent, like rubbing it on a weapon and attacking after letting it dry. When the weapon slashes through the enemy…only a small portion of it may actually enter the body, dealing too little damage.

Lastly, if a hundred drops entered True Yan the first time around, with his strength, he would discover the poison destroying his body. He would instantly give up fighting and would start to focus on his undying energy to push the rest of the poison out. By then, only one or two drops would have probably succeeded while the others would be wasted. Hence, each attack usually did best with a little of the poison, acting before the enemy can drive it out.

Although it had its weaknesses, it was not as pricey as other heavenly weapons.

Like the Ka Suo dagger, it could be used over and over, piercing into an emperor limit would instantly kill him. Whether it was longevity or effectiveness, it far exceeded the Fei Mo poison. However its price was absurd too.

...

Luo Feng brandished a blood shadow blade. This was a newly ordered blade, using expensive G grade metals, which were on par with the treasure room of the sacrificial tower. The Fei Mo poison was very weak on metals, and it had no way to corrode this new metal blade.

Of course, this blade cost close to one hundred million points.

"I've simulated it in the virtual universe over 1,000 times, nothing should go wrong." Luo Feng carefully coated the blade with the poison. The blade was fairly small in size, and it could at most have fifty drops of the poison on its surface.

After awhile…

Luo Feng gripped his new blade and looked at it glow with purple light, smiling, "From today on, this blade shall be called Poison shadow blade. A blood shadow blade and a poison shadow blade…I'll use the blood shadow blade most of the time and only use the poison shadow blade in critical moments."

"I have to be patient."

"The Golden horned beast has to train Deities of the world and the cloud contact vine has to evolve, I have to wait…" His eyes gleamed, "Purple Clock emperor, it'll be soon!"

*******

One year later, in his internal world.

"Howl!" The beast raised its head and let out an excited howl. It had finally depleted the large amount of resources that cost 110 billion, amplifying Deities of the world to sixteen times.

"Everything is going according to plan!" Luo Feng stood on the grass. His eyes were filled with anticipation. "Cloud contact vine."

Xiu!

A beam of light flew over, it was the 256 vines cloud contact vine. Luo Feng had used eight billion points to evolve it from 216 vines to 256, and its power rose from pinnacle official to low emperor! If he wanted to raise it more to 360 vines (High emperor), that would require over a hundred billion points, with a success rate of less than 50%.

If nurtured from young to have 360 vines, only about ten billion points would have been required.

It was obvious that upgrading a weak plant later on would cost tens to hundreds of times more than simply nurturing a strong one.

"Hu!"

The vine flew over like an octopus instantly wrapping about Luo Feng and melding with his skin. "Master." It communicated excitedly.

"Ha…" Luo Feng smiled.

This plant had been with him for so long, risking life and death with him, what was a few points? He would rather spend more points on this one than nurture a new one. The only thing was that he wasn't wealthy enough right now. Plus, with threats mounting, he hadn't reached the level of being able to spend over a hundred billion mixed elements to gamble on something with less than 50% success rate.

"Space lock band." Luo Feng placed a water god crystal into its energy chamber.

"Silver armor." A silver armor appeared, protecting the cloud contact armor and the arm band.

"Sha Wu wings." Silver wings opened on his back, it covered the original sector lord energy and powerful energy emanated about.

The silver winged and armored Luo Feng smiled, his eyes gleaming.

"Babata." He ordered, "Send a mail immediately to all the emperor friends I know on Yan Ji main continent, get their help to search for the automaton camp Qi Chang race Purple Clock emperor."

"Yes!"

Babata immediately sent bulk mails to get help.

"I wonder if they can find him." Babata said. "He was probably afraid of dealing with you when he spread that news earlier, he might have hidden himself."

"If I can't find him, I'll put a bounty of him." Luo Feng said softly.

Just like how the automaton Ci Wei Ka had placed a bounty on Luo Feng back then, spending up to ten million as a reward, it would make the warriors of the human camp search for Purple Clock madly.
