Chapter 60: The First Stage of the Indestructible Body Cultivation Achieved

A few hours later, a 'stuffed' Luo Feng slowly let out a breath, thinking to himself,
"Given my current physical constitution, consuming gold still offers the highest efficiency for practicing the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill."

Other high-grade metals, such as mysterious iron and purple light iron, could also be absorbed and digested, but the process was rather slow, making them inferior to simply eating gold.

Touching the muscles on his arm, Luo Feng could indeed feel a slight enhancement in his body's strength.

It wasn't much, but after all, today was only the first day of his cultivation.
After practicing for ten days or half a month, the effects would presumably become quite noticeable.

....The days that followed returned to tranquility.

Luo Feng spent most of his time every day heading out to the wilderness to cultivate, and in between his training sessions, he would conveniently hunt monsters to earn points.

At the same time, he also carved out a little time every day to spend with his family and his girlfriend, Xu Xin.

Speaking of which, there was an interesting anecdote: once, Luo Feng and Xu Xin had a rather late date, and when Luo Feng dropped her home, the Xu family manor was pitch black with its gates locked tight, completely devoid of anyone.

Luo Feng and Xu Xin were not fools; both of them immediately guessed the reason. It was nothing more than the Xu family growing anxious, eager to see their daughter and Luo Feng—a genius powerhouse whose fame in the upper circles of warriors was growing day by day—cook their rice into cooked porridge as soon as possible, so as to avoid any other unexpected developments.

One couldn't blame the Xu family for overthinking. After all, nowadays the Luo family frequently had aristocratic young ladies coming and going. On the surface, they claimed to be visiting the two uncles and aunts, Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan, but in reality, who didn't know the score in their hearts?

Weren't they all aiming for the Luo brothers, Luo Feng and Luo Hua?

While ordinary forces and families dared not compete with the Xu family for Luo Feng as a son-in-law, there was no shortage of powerful factions that did not fear the Xu family and completely disregarded them. Regardless of whether you were boyfriend and girlfriend, as long as the hoe was wielded well, no corner couldn't be dug up!

Besides, even if they were married, it wasn't impossible to take a second wife.
On Earth in the Base City era, marriage—especially the marriage of warriors—was strongly encouraged. Because the children born to warriors had a much greater chance of becoming warriors themselves, if a male warrior was willing to take multiple wives, it was fully supported by the law.

After all, everything was for the development and continuation of humanity.

...However, what Luo Feng found a bit regrettable was that Xu Xin, being a young maiden, had a rather thin skin. In the end, stamping her foot with a blushing and shy expression, she asked Luo Feng to drop her off at a villa she owned, having no intention of playing with fire as a lone man and woman with Luo Feng.

When the Xu family later learned of this incident, they beat their chests and slapped their thighs in frustration, feeling utterly distressed.

Yet they were powerless to do anything about it, and could only work on Xu Xin's mindset on one hand, while continuously creating opportunities for her and Luo Feng on the other.

....

In the wilderness, the familiar ruined metropolis of Modu, Sector 003.

"Crunch, crunch~"

A strange chewing sound echoed inside the silvery-white gravity chamber.

On the gravity chamber's wall, the display screen showed the number '3000'.

Under such terrifying gravity—enough to instantly grind a peak God of War into a mist of blood and entirely unbearable for a second-tier planetary-level warrior—Luo Feng, bare-chested, seemed completely unfazed.

At this moment, the skin on Luo Feng's body emitted a faint golden luster, making his entire person shine brilliantly like a little golden statue.

Surrounding him, hundreds of tons of gold were piled casually. With his eyes closed, Luo Feng circulated the secret technique of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill while using his spiritual telekinesis to levitate the gold directly into his mouth. Like eating noodles, he chewed and swallowed it down into his stomach with rapid crunches, after which the secret technique surged wildly, transforming the metal into wisps of golden vapor that fused with his body to reinforce his defense.

If one were to dissect Luo Feng's body, they would discover that not only were his bones a pale golden color, but even his blood carried specks of golden light.

After a long while, when the hundreds of tons of gold had been completely devoured by Luo Feng, a brilliant golden light burst forth from his body. A moment later, the golden light receded beneath his skin, returning his complexion to its normal tone.

"Hoo~" Luo Feng let out a soft breath, slowly opening his eyes with a smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

"The first stage of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill has finally been successfully cultivated."

It had taken a full month and the consumption of thousands upon tens of thousands of tons of gold to finally master the first stage.

"According to the description after successfully mastering the first stage of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, my physical strength right now is sufficient to withstand the attacks of a third-tier planetary-level powerhouse without my defense being breached," Luo Feng thought to himself.

The third-tier planetary-level here referred to the "extreme force that a conventional third-tier planetary-level warrior in the universe could unleash," not a third-tier planetary-level on Earth.

The specific difference between the two was that planetary-level powerhouses on Earth generally had a force amplification amplitude of only four to five times, with figures like Thor and Hong reaching six or seven times at most, and even then, these amplitudes were incomplete. Meanwhile, planetary-level powerhouses in the universe with complete inheritances could generally reach a force amplification multiple of around fifteen times, and basically all of them practiced certain secret techniques for explosive power.

Therefore, the Vajra Indestructible Body forged by practicing the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill was designed to withstand—a third-tier planetary-level warrior with a force amplification amplitude reaching fifteen times who also practiced ordinary explosive power secret techniques.

"Judging by the standard power output of Earth's planetary-level warriors, I reckon even a fifth-tier planetary-level might not necessarily be able to break through my defense," Luo Feng smiled faintly.

In other words, apart from Hong and Thor, no other entities could even break his skin.... No, wait, those two peak planetary-level beast emperors still had to be factored in.

"Should I go test the effects of the Vajra Indestructible Body?" Luo Feng felt a stir of eagerness.

Having just achieved some success in practicing the divine skill, if he didn't test its effects, wouldn't that mean he had eaten tons of gold in vain for a whole month?

One had to know that over the past month, eating gold had reached the point where Luo Feng felt slightly nauseous just seeing yellow-colored food.

Hundreds of tons a day.... He had eaten until he was utterly dazed and disoriented.

"Let's head to the ocean. The number of king-level monsters on land is small, and they've all gone into hiding, making them really hard to find," Luo Feng thought to himself. Afterward, he stepped out of the gravity chamber, his figure transforming into a streak of golden light that vanished into the horizon, heading straight for the ocean waters near Sector 003.

According to statistics from the human side, the number of king-level monsters in the oceans was at least close to a thousand!

In contrast, the number of land-based king-level monsters was only a little over a hundred, a disparity of nearly tenfold.

As for the human side... there were only a little over fifty planetary-level existences in total.... Given this massive gap in numbers, if it weren't for powerhouses like Hong and Thor holding the line at the front, and the fact that the monsters themselves lacked internal unity, humanity would have long since been wiped out by the monsters.

....

The coastal waters.

A streak of golden light pierced the sea, instantly plunging hundreds of meters deep into the ocean—it was Luo Feng.

"So many monsters."

This was Luo Feng's first time entering the ocean, and seeing this for himself came as quite a shock.

Right before his eyes and all around him, dense swarms of marine beasts were swimming about. Within a radius of several kilometers as far as the eye could see, the number of sea beasts easily exceeded a hundred thousand!

Although the vast majority of them were soldier-grade monsters, this quantity and density were utterly terrifying.

With a single thought, Luo Feng retracted the Black God Set covering his body back down to the portion wrapping solely around his palms, leaving his body bare. Then, his figure shot forward like a golden lightning bolt, brutally barrelling straight into the monster horde ahead.

In an instant, blossoms of blood mist exploded throughout the deep sea, possessing a poignant and desolate beauty.
