Chapter 648: Chapter 217: Soaring Rankings! Top 100 on the Combat Power Ranking! The Shock of the Sealing King Inheritance Mastery

The tip of the spear was like a true, miniature black hole.

A formless yet irresistible and terrifying Will instantly blanketed an area tens of thousands of miles wide.

Under this Will, everything in the surroundings seemed to freeze. Time and space themselves ground to a halt.

As he prepared for a final, desperate struggle, Lang Qi was horrified to find his body, his thoughts, and even the Spiritual Energy within him completely immobilized by this Will. Escape was impossible.

Then, a terrifying suction force emanated from the "black hole" at the spear’s tip.

Lang Qi’s body was pulled uncontrollably toward the devastating spear tip.

The Sealing King legacy had reached Great Completion!

"DIE—!"

On the brink of life and death, Lang Qi erupted in a final frenzy.

Lang Qi poured every last bit of his remaining strength into his menacing Power Claws, launching a final, suicidal attack at Qin Feng.

He had no other choice. The terrifying suction force left him no room to escape; his only option was to clash head-on with Qin Feng.

The result was obvious.

CRACK—!

With a crisp, shattering sound, Lang Qi’s Power Claws—strong enough to tear through Warship Armor—crumbled inch by inch the moment they touched the "black hole."

Following that, his custom-made power armor, the wolf pelt that symbolized his status, his powerful physical body that he took so much pride in...

Everything—all of it—was like paper before that terrifying, immense power. It all exploded, turning into a torrent of primal energy that was completely devoured by the "black hole" at the spear’s tip.

With Lang Qi’s complete Annihilation, the Jade Token on Qin Feng’s wrist immediately provided feedback.

[You have killed contestant ’Lang Qi’]

[You have received 3,289 points.]

[You have obtained resources: 99,921 tons of Lightless Water, 3 Heaven-Reaching Vine Fruits, 3,231 tons of Cyan Cloud Liquid, 10 tons of Purple Extreme Gold Stone...]

Next came the loot information from killing Wolf Ten.

[You have killed contestant ’Wolf Ten’]

[You have received 2,987 points.]

[You have obtained resources: 12 stalks of Seven-Star Grass, 3 kg of Void Source Stone, 20 liters of Dragon Blood Essence...]

Looking at the long, densely packed list of resources displayed on the Jade Token’s light screen, even someone like Qin Feng couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

"So many resources," Qin Feng couldn’t help but marvel.

The sheer quantity of these resources was truly substantial.

Many of them were top-tier resources used for enhancing Mental Power or refining the physical body, their value no less than that of a Heaven-Reaching Vine Fruit.

A rough estimate placed the total value of the loot from both kills at the equivalent of about two hundred Heaven-Reaching Vine Fruits.

’It seems Lang Qi hasn’t been idle these past few years, not after backstabbing Tie Muer and taking all the fruits for himself. He’s been frantically hoarding resources,’ Qin Feng realized.

Moreover, most of these items required long periods of secluded cultivation to be slowly absorbed.

’Lang Qi probably planned to finish this job, find a place to hide and cultivate, and then re-emerge after his strength had greatly increased. But in the end... all his efforts have just benefited me.’

Qin Feng moved all the loot into his storage space.

His eyes were brighter than ever before.

’As I thought. In this bloody Trial Ground, the fastest way to plunder resources is to take them from others.’

This thought was like a door opening to a whole new world for Qin Feng.

Finding your own resources was simply inferior to taking them from others.

-----------------

The starry sky returned to its ancient, dead silence.

Qin Feng floated quietly in the void, holding [Star-Devourer], feeling the new power surging within him from his breakthrough to the Great Completion realm.

He cast his gaze down at the massive, sullied planet below—the Heart of Rot.

On the planet’s surface, in the center of a giant crater, space was warping unnaturally, rippling like water.

That was the entrance to the secret realm previously occupied by Lang Qi and Wolf Ten—a fragment of Subspace containing a complete Insect Race’s Nest.

Qin Feng’s powerful Mental Power could clearly sense that during the time he was fighting and hunting down Lang Qi and Wolf Ten, quite a few "sharks" who had smelled blood—other contestants lurking nearby—had already slipped into the secret realm’s entrance, hoping to profit from the chaos.

When a top-tier prodigy falls, the Resource Point they occupied naturally becomes ownerless, attracting countless covetous eyes.

The old Qin Feng might have entered immediately without hesitation, clearing out both the threats and opportunities within.

But now, he merely gave it a calm glance before looking away.

He opened the Jade Token’s light screen on his wrist and looked at the astonishingly long list of loot plundered from Lang Qi and Wolf Ten.

[Lightless Water]: 99,921 tons. [Heaven-Reaching Vine Fruit]: 3. [Cyan Cloud Liquid]: 3,231 tons. [Purple Extreme Gold Stone]: 10 tons. [Seven-Star Grass]: 12 stalks. [Void Source Stone]: 3 kg...

In comparison, while the core Will of the Insect Race’s Nest was also quite valuable, it paled in significance next to this haul of loot.

More importantly, it would take time to absorb these resources and convert them completely into personal strength.

A thought surfaced clearly in Qin Feng’s mind, and he quickly identified it as the optimal solution.

’There’s no need to go in.’

Qin Feng’s gaze was calm.

’These resources are enough for me to enter a deep seclusion and raise my strength to the next level. The core Will of that Insect Race’s Nest isn’t going anywhere.’

Qin Feng decided to enter seclusion right here on the planet Heart of Rot.

He would lie in wait.

If someone was lucky enough to successfully retrieve the core Will from the dangerous Insect Race’s Nest while he was in seclusion, then what awaited that person would be him—the proverbial "oriole" that had already bared its fangs.
