Chapter 37

Possession

A month later, Luo Feng returned.

Mariana Trench, Meteorite Star.

"Everyone, I'm back!"

Luo Feng greeted Hong, Lei Shen, and Zhou Tong happily.

"Quickly, Luo Feng, show us your Earth Lord identification!"

Thor rushed to Luo Feng's side first, grabbed Luo Feng's neck, and urged him curiously.

Luo Feng immediately raised his right hand, and the computer projected a document.

"It's similar to a real estate contract on Earth, except I'm buying a planet."

Babata revealed himself and began to explain: "The universe is complex, but not that complex. If you want a life-bearing planet, as long as you have enough strength, it doesn't matter whether you have this contract or not."

When our master first occupied Earth, he also conveniently destroyed the Blue Silver Empire's fleet. However, because our master was an immortal-level powerhouse, they could only obediently accept it and even had to congratulate him on taking over Earth.

"Alright, it seems I need to work even harder in my cultivation. Once I become an immortal, I'll also want to get my hands on a few planets to play with."

Thor's nonsensical joke only earned him Babata's merciless mockery.

"Immortal? Luo Feng only had a slight chance by possessing the Golden Horned Beast. You, Thor and Hong, are incredibly lucky to have become cosmic-level beings in this lifetime."

"Forehead..."

Thor glared defiantly at Babata, while Hong frowned, looking sullen.

Although they obtained the martial arts cultivation method of Meteorite Star, they had no one to guide them and could only study it on their own. This was roughly equivalent to giving junior high school students some high school knowledge and letting them study on their own to get into a prestigious university.

Therefore, although Hong and Thor were not convinced by Babata's taunts, they could only remain silent. They were well aware of their own abilities, and without guidance, they would most likely end up like Babata had predicted.

"You should still have dreams; you never know, they might just come true!"

The somber atmosphere was suddenly broken by Zhou Tong, who laughed and chimed in, "Only the future knows what the future holds. Right now, all we need to do is set a goal and work hard. Whether we succeed or not, we'll only know after we try. What if, like Zhou Tong said, we succeed!"

"That's right. Back then, I only thought about becoming a martial artist, buying a big house, and not letting my parents suffer anymore, but I didn't realize that I've ended up like this."

Luo Feng responded to Thor with emotion.

Hong then smiled and chimed in, "If we work together, we'll be the best on Earth, and it's not impossible for us to go to the universe too."

Babata did not criticize or mock them; on the contrary, he was pleased that they had such faith.

Having followed Huyanbo for so long, Babata knows that while talent and resources are important for someone to become a strong person, having a firm belief is even more crucial.

Clearly, Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen all possess sufficiently strong beliefs.

So Babata urged again, "If you want to become a top powerhouse in the universe, you can't waste any more time. Luo Feng can start possessing the Golden Horned Beast."

At this moment, Zhou Tong suggested, "It is indeed possible to possess the Golden Horned Beast. Once a human clone is conceived, Hong and the Thunder God will be able to break through to the Heng Star level."

"Then the three of you can go to space to become mercenaries and get used to cosmic adventures. Around that time, the ultimate cosmic genius battle will begin."

Luo Feng nodded and asked in return, "And what about you? Aren't you coming with us?"

Zhou Tong shook his head: "Once you successfully possess the Golden Horned Beast, I will go on an adventure in the universe first. My strength is sufficient now, but I still lack many special resources for cultivating the Three Thousand Great Daos. Some of them cannot even be bought with money, and I can only collect them myself."

The Great Origin Technique that Zhou Tong most wants to master now requires either the aura of war and slaughter or even better faith and willpower. The Great Salvation Technique, which he uses to subdue the Zerg Queen, also requires faith and willpower.

Many of the cultivation resources required for the Three Thousand Great Paths are quite special, and most of them are not mainstream cultivation resources in the universe. Only Zhou Tong himself can collect them.

Besides, there are no more resources on Earth for Zhou Tong to cultivate. If he wants to improve, he can only go to the universe. It is absolutely impossible for him to just wait on Earth and watch others improve while he can only stay in the same place.

.....

After some planning and preparation, another month passed.

Luo Feng chose the ruins of a mining site on Mars as the location to possess the Golden Horned Beast.

Although all the mined ether crystals were taken away before, there are still more ether crystals in the vein, which will be just right to feed the Golden Horned Beast.

A huge space was carved out of the dilapidated mine, just big enough to fit the Meteorite Starship.

Luo Feng's servants took the golden-horned behemoth from Zhou Tong's hands, which was imprisoned in the Crimson Copper Mother's cell, and carried it back to the Meteorite Starship.

This is because their spatial rings cannot store living beings; they can only transport them individually.

Zhou Tong came to Mars to protect Luo Feng, while Hong and Lei Shen, unable to offer much help, stayed on Earth to cultivate.

"Luo Feng, I will use the Great Soul Technique to severely injure the Golden Horned Beast's soul, and then you will follow up and begin the possession. I will protect you."

Luo Feng nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, I've made ample preparations. The first account my teacher left me had a full 100 billion Qianwu coins. I spent nearly a third of it to buy a lot of treasures to replenish soul consumption and temporarily strengthen soul power. In addition, you severely injured the Golden Horned Beast's soul, so success is guaranteed."

Seeing Luo Feng's confident demeanor, Zhou Tong felt relieved. The reason he had specifically followed him was because he feared that his interference might cause Luo Feng to fail in his possession attempt, or even die. He couldn't bear the consequences of that now.

"Great Soul Spell!"

Without a trace or a sound, the golden-horned behemoth suddenly let out a mournful howl and collapsed onto the metal floor.

"Now!"

At Zhou Tong's prompting, Luo Feng, who was sitting cross-legged on the floor, suddenly glared at the golden-horned beast, shouting in his mind, "Mental Technique: Possession!"

In an instant, a surge of tangible spiritual power erupted from Luo Feng's brain, condensing in the air into a uniquely shaped pagoda, which was none other than the soul defense secret technique of Meteorite Star: the Tower of Void.

As for why the Void Tower, which was originally invisible to the naked eye, could materialize, it was because Luo Feng had consumed a treasure that strengthened and replenished his soul, resulting in a large amount of soul power.

As the Void Tower rushed into the Golden Horned Beast's body, Luo Feng's body instantly went limp and he collapsed onto the floor.

At the same time, Luo Feng's soul rode the Void Tower straight towards the core of the Golden Horned Beast.

The Golden Horned Beast's core was originally covered with golden runes that emitted a dazzling golden light, but now it has lost its luster, and even the golden runes on the core have become dim and silent.

Without any hindrance, Luo Feng's soul entered the core of the Golden Horned Beast.

"Awooo!"

The golden-horned behemoth, which had been slumped on the floor, suddenly leaped up and slammed into the cage the moment Luo Feng's soul entered the primordial core, as the pain in its soul was simply unbearable.

Fortunately, the golden-horned behemoth's pain was short-lived and soon subsided.

At the same instant, Zhou Tong sensed Luo Feng's soul aura from the Golden Horned Beast.

At the same time, Babata, who had been silent since Luo Feng began his possession, suddenly started waving his arms and legs around the golden-horned beast and shouting incessantly.

"It worked! It worked! Thank goodness! Hahaha~"
