Stellar Transformation-Chapter 440: Episode 14 - 13 The New Golden Punishment Monarch
"You are very strong," the leader of the Law Enforcers, Wen Feng, said to Qin Yu.
"You’re not bad yourself," Qin Yu’s gaze swept over the five people behind Wen Feng and he nodded slightly, "The Law Enforcement Team indeed lives up to its reputation, no wonder it can make those evildoers dread so much."
The five Law Enforcers behind Wen Feng all looked towards Qin Yu, their eyes cold.
At this moment, Elder Liu Tong, who was standing nearby, quickly spoke with a laugh, "I am Elder Liu Tong from Sangyuan Star, and this is Lord Liu Xing, an Interstellar Ascetic. Lord Liu Xing is now also a person of Sangyuan Star."
"Interstellar Ascetic!" Wen Feng muttered to himself, then placed his left fist over his right chest respectfully and said, "Wen Feng is grateful to Lord Liu Xing for killing the Seven-star Emperor-level Metal Beast." The five Law Enforcers behind him also saluted.
Qin Yu smiled lightly and said, "It was just a small effort. By the way, when I was killing that Seven-star Emperor-level Metal Beast, it transmitted a threat to me, saying that if I killed it, its brothers would come for revenge."
The corners of Law Enforcer Wen Feng’s mouth curled up slightly, showing a hint of a smile, "That Seven-star Emperor-level Metal Beast must have miscalculated. I guess even if its two brothers were to join forces, they would be far from being a match for you, Lord Liu Xing."
Qin Yu just nodded slightly.
He stayed on Sangyuan Star for a few more days because he was concerned that the ’brothers’ of that Seven-star Emperor-level Metal Beast might come for revenge against the people of Sangyuan Star; that’s why he stayed a few more days. According to Qin Yu’s estimation, if the brothers of the Seven-star Emperor-level Metal Beast were to seek revenge, it would likely be within these days.
Now that the Law Enforcers had arrived, and judging by their strength, they were more than capable of eliminating the surviving two Emperor-level Metal Beasts. There was no need for him to stay any longer.
"Law Enforcer, please come inside to rest," Elder Liu Tong quickly said. Among this group, only he, Elder Liu Tong, was the weakest.
The Law Enforcers, as Liu Tong knew, pursued those who were evil and disrupted the Dark Star Realm. As a violent force, the Law Enforcers were even more bloodthirsty than those ’evildoers’.
Inside the Elder Hall.
"Elder Liu Tong, these three Emperor-level Metal Beasts first appeared on Yuan Dong Star’s Feng E Star in the north, massacring tens of thousands of people on Feng E Star, even killing the elder of Feng E Star. Afterwards, our Law Enforcement Team took action, mainly splitting into three teams. But at first, we didn’t expect those three Emperor-level Metal Beasts to be so powerful. After they had massacred another Yuan Dong Star, one of our Law Enforcement squads finally intercepted these three Emperor-level Metal Beasts," Wen Feng explained carefully in the great hall, "However, the strongest person we sent was only Ten-star Emperor Level. Out of the six people in that squad, three were killed, and the remaining three fled. The captain of the squad, who was Ten-star Emperor Level, deduced that the strongest of the three Emperor-level Metal Beasts was about Twelve-star Emperor Level. Of course... it does not rule out that one Metal Beast was hiding its strength."
Upon hearing this, Liu Tong was shocked.
He had not expected that two Yuan Dong Stars had been completely slaughtered. If not for Qin Yu, Sangyuan Star would have been the third.
"It probably wasn’t hiding its strength; otherwise, it wouldn’t have just watched as three of your people escaped," Qin Yu judged.
Wen Feng, behind his mask, looked at Qin Yu and nodded, "I believe so too, and moreover, the strengths of the other two Emperor-level Metal Beasts have been determined. One is Ten-star Emperor Level, and the other is Seven-star Emperor Level, without a doubt. Even if the last one is stronger, it couldn’t be much stronger than these two."
"Lord Liu Xing, you said... that Seven-star Emperor-level Metal Beast threatened you before it died, saying its brothers would come after you for revenge?" Wen Feng inquired of Qin Yu.
"Correct," Qin Yu nodded, "Don’t worry, if these two Emperor-level Metal Beasts appear, I will detect them immediately."
By now, Qin Yu’s Immortal Consciousness fully covered the entire Sangyuan Star, and the amount of Soul Power Qin Yu used to continuously cover Sangyuan Star had no real effect on him.
"You all go rest first," Wen Feng ordered his subordinates.
"Yes, my Lord." The five Law Enforcers saluted and then left the great hall. At this moment, Wen Feng’s gaze shifted to Elder Liu Tong, who, very tactfully, also departed the hall. Suddenly, only Qin Yu and Wen Feng remained within the vast space.
Wen Feng looked towards Qin Yu, the mask on his face instantly vanishing.
Qin Yu’s eyes slightly widened in surprise.
Wen Feng’s appearance indeed startled Qin Yu. He had never imagined that a person from the Dark Star Realm could bear a resemblance to the people of the Demon World— a third eye!
To be exact, there was a closed slit on Wen Feng’s forehead, which Qin Yu’s Immortal Consciousness could discern housed an eye.
"Lord Liu Xing, your strength is sufficient for me to unveil my mask. Allow me to introduce myself. Wen Feng, the newly-appointed chief captain of the Law Enforcement Team, a Fifteen-star Emperor-level Expert," said Wen Feng, a rare smile appearing on his face.
Qin Yu felt an uncertainty in his heart, wondering what purpose this Wen Feng in front of him held.
"My name is Liu Xing, just an ordinary Interstellar Ascetic," Qin Yu introduced himself quite succinctly.
"A man even I, Wen Feng, cannot see through, yet you call yourself an ordinary Interstellar Ascetic? Not long ago, the Holy Star called upon all Golden Punishment Sect experts of Fifteen-star Emperor Level from across the entire Dark Star Realm to fill the position of the leader of the Three Great Sovereigns—Golden Punishment Monarch. I wonder... With such strength, why didn’t you go to the Holy Star?" inquired Wen Feng directly.
The position of one of the Three Great Sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm was coveted by all. And the Golden Punishment Monarch, being the leader of the Three Sovereigns, held an even more supreme status!
With a smile, Qin Yu said, "Speaking of which, what about you? You seem to have also reached the Fifteen-star Emperor Level, so why did you not take up the position of the Golden Punishment Monarch, but instead become the captain of the Law Enforcement Team?"
Qin Yu was indeed filled with doubts regarding this.
Wen Feng gave a self-deprecating smile, "Do you think I don’t want to? The Golden Punishment Monarch, the leader of the Three Sovereigns, holds a revered status..."
"Emperor-level Metal Beast has arrived," Qin Yu abruptly interrupted Wen Feng.
Wen Feng stopped talking as well, and with one glance exchanged between them, they both vanished into thin air from the great hall.
...
A fierce bird made entirely from blue metal circled in the sky. This Metal Beast, having reached the Ten-star Emperor Level, was hesitating... whether to annihilate Sangyuan Star.
"Big Brother, we must leave quickly; there’s a powerful master here," a voice sounded in the mind of the Metal Beast.
The fierce bird felt a chill in its heart, "This is bad, danger looms." But just as it was about to perform the Great Teleportation to escape, a hand materialized out of nowhere and grasped its neck firmly.
"Little bird, still thinking of fleeing?" a voice tinged with a hint of teasing sounded.
The Metal Beast turned its head to look at the youth floating in the air, smiling as he held its neck. Unknown to the beast, just a few days prior, its younger sibling was captured in the same manner by the same person.
At that moment, another figure appeared beside Qin Yu, none other than Wen Feng.
"We let it slip away," Wen Feng said, his expression turning a shade uglier. "That Twelve-star Emperor-level Metal Beast is hiding in space. It has set up a Formation around it, preventing me from using Great Teleportation to get close to it directly."
"Formation, even Metal Beasts can set up formations?" Qin Yu was somewhat surprised.
Wen Feng laughed at himself, "Who knows? It’s also my first time seeing this. However, there have been records in history of formidable Emperor-level Metal Beasts setting up formations, possessing human wisdom. It’s not impossible for them to arrange formations."
"You’d better release me, or my Big Brother will definitely come to kill you all," the fierce bird actually spoke human words.
"Haha..."
Qin Yu laughed, "Hey, little bird, do you know that, just a few days ago, that Seven-star Emperor-level Metal Beast was also captured by me like this. When I wanted to kill it, it also threatened me in the same way."
"It was you who killed Third Brother." The fierce bird glared at Qin Yu.
But the fierce bird realized that after Qin Yu grasped its neck, its Gold Core was completely enveloped by Qin Yu’s ’Power of Gold,’ and it couldn’t use a trace of energy.
"Wen Feng, even if that Twelve-star Emperor-level Metal Beast was within the formation, you shouldn’t have failed to capture it," Qin Yu wondered.
After all, Wen Feng was a Fifteen-star Emperor-level expert.
Wen Feng shook his head and said, "Trapped in the formation, incapable of using Instantaneous Movement or Great Teleportation, that Twelve-star Emperor-level Metal Beast blinked and left the formation from another direction, directly escaping for its life."
"How do we deal with this little bird?" Qin Yu looked towards Wen Feng.
"It’s up to you. Just kill it, and naturally, the Gold Core and body will be yours," Wen Feng said indifferently.
As if sensing the coming of doomsday, the fierce bird looked at Qin Yu with great horror, "Lord, spare me, please. I’ll do anything you ask as long as you spare me."
"Indeed it possesses human wisdom." Qin Yu remarked with admiration.
Spare?
Would he spare it? Qin Yu still remembered the Law Enforcement Team leader ’Wen Feng’ saying these three Emperor-level Metal Beasts had slaughtered two Sangyuan Stars. How could such a ferocious Metal Beast be spared?
His fingers exerted a little more force.
A sound like steel shattering rang out, the neck of the Ten-star Emperor-level Metal Beast was completely twisted apart, and its Gold Core was directly coiled out by Qin Yu.
"Wen Feng, I asked you earlier, and you haven’t answered yet. Aren’t you a Fifteen-star Emperor-level expert? Why haven’t you become the new Golden Punishment Monarch?" Qin Yu still harbored this question in his heart.
Wen Feng shook his head helplessly with a wry smile, "I too once wanted to become the Golden Punishment Monarch, so I worked hard on my cultivation. Half a year ago, I finally made a breakthrough, reaching Fifteen-star Emperor Level. When I returned to the Holy Star, only then did I find out... a super expert had already returned to the Holy Star, and this super expert had already been determined to be the new Golden Punishment Monarch. The formal announcement should come in half a year. I was somewhat helpless at that time, so I took up the position of captain of the Law Enforcers, chasing down some people to vent a bit."
"I didn’t expect that you became the captain of the Law Enforcement Team just to vent. By the way... you mentioned the new Golden Punishment Monarch has already been determined. How strong is that person?" Qin Yu inquired.
Wen Feng’s fists clenched tightly as he said, "The new Golden Punishment Monarch is extremely strong, terrifyingly strong!"
Qin Yu was surprised.
If even Wen Feng says he is terrifyingly strong, just how powerful is this new Golden Punishment Monarch?
"No matter how strong, just how strong can he be?" Qin Yu said with a smile, but Wen Feng seriously responded, "No, he really is very strong. I too was quite resentful at first, wondering why he was chosen as the new Monarch. Only later did I find out that person was already an Eighteen-star Emperor-level expert!"
"Eighteen-star Emperor Level!"
Qin Yu was taken aback.
Seventeen-star and Eighteen-star Emperor-level experts, their Soul Realms are generally at the Ninth Level Immortal Emperor stage, all nearing the phase of Crossing Divine Tribulation. An Eighteen-star Emperor-level expert appearing is exceedingly rare.
"Eighteen-star Emperor Level, then his tendons and muscles are as tough and formidable as Upper Grade Divine Artifacts." Qin Yu felt a bit intimidated.
Suddenly, Qin Yu furrowed his brows.
Such an expert emerging without any prelude. Qin Yu turned to ’Wen Feng’ and asked, "Where is this super expert from? How did the person emerge so suddenly?"
"Dark Star!"
Wen Feng said solemnly, "From the eighteenth Dark Star among the Eighteen Emperor-level Trial Dark Stars."
"Lord Liu Xing, you should know, anyone who can last an hour on the eighteenth Dark Star is considered an Eighteen-star Emperor-level expert. Over so many years, I’ve not seen anyone opt to cultivate on that eighteenth Dark Star, but... about a year ago, suddenly a person emerged from the Interstellar Transmission Array linked to the eighteenth Dark Star."
As Wen Feng said this, Qin Yu also understood.
All eighteen Dark Stars have Transmission Arrays leading to them. Anyone who can emerge from the Transmission Array connecting to the eighteenth Dark Star is undoubtedly an Eighteen-star Emperor-level expert.
"Alas, who would know that there were still people on that eighteenth Dark Star? Someone surfaced so abruptly. Two months after that person appeared, another person emerged from the Transmission Array leading to the seventeenth Trial Dark Star."
Qin Yu was stunned.
"Another one? This one should be a Seventeen-star Emperor-level expert. It seems the Golden Punishment Monarch position was not unjustly taken from you. By the way, how did these two super experts suddenly appear?"
Wen Feng responded with a bitter smile, "How would I know? According to the records of the Interstellar Transmission Array, the last transmissions to the seventeenth Emperor-level Dark Star and the eighteenth Emperor-level Dark Star were hundreds of years ago. Most people thought that even if some had entered, they would have been crushed to pieces by the terrifying pressure and died long ago. Who would have thought they’d return after so many years."
Qin Yu nodded jokingly, "It’s quite frightening. Imagine if one day from the eighteenth Emperor-level Dark Star, suddenly a group of ten or twenty people emerged. Just think about that scene."
Wen Feng shuddered at the thought.
"The seventeenth Emperor-level Dark Star and the eighteenth Emperor-level Dark Star rarely see anyone go into cultivation. Likewise... nobody knows if there are any super experts enduring the hardship of cultivation inside those stars," Wen Feng sighed.
Qin Yu nodded.
"Well, it’s time to head toward the Eighteen Emperor-level Trial Dark Stars," Qin Yu thought to himself.
