The moment Luo Fan stepped out of the ship, a man in a purple robe approached.
"Greetings, Your Highness Luo Fan. We need to verify your identity."
The man spoke politely.
"Proceed."
Luo Fan nodded.
The purple-robed man produced a device and scanned Luo Fan from head to toe.
"Identity confirmed."
"Primal Secret Realm member: Luo Fan."
The man put the device away and shot Luo Fan an apologetic look.
"My apologies, Your Highness. Since you came alone, we must run the procedure."
Luo Fan waved his hand, unconcerned.
"No problem. I understand. May I enter the Blood Luo World now?"
He had already received the arrival signal while still on the ship, but he had not yet been granted entry.
"No problem, Your Highness."
"However, I must remind you of a few points."
"The natives of the Blood Luo World are extremely xenophobic, so it is best not to use items that do not exist there."
"You must also learn the Blood Luo World's language."
"If you encounter danger, simply fly your ship out and we will dispatch rescue immediately."
Luo Fan nodded and returned to his ship.
He already knew all of this.
For weapons, he could have his Mechanical Clan avatar craft a sharp F9-grade war blade. It would not have secret runes, only a plain but very sharp edge.
As for language, his Mechanical Clan avatar learned the eighteen dialects of the Blood Luo World in under a minute.
After disguising the ship to look like a meteorite, Luo Fan piloted it toward the Blood Luo World.
The Blood Luo Continent measured one light-year in diameter, roughly 94 trillion kilometers.
Thick mists covered the world.
There were eighteen layers of cloud qi in the Blood Luo World sky. The higher the layer, the greater the pressure. Only cosmic-level beings could pass through all eighteen layers under their own power.
The natives never ventured beyond the eighteenth layer. They feared that any native who left would be killed by extraterrestrial clans.
No one who had flown past the eighteenth layer had ever returned to the surface alive.
The purpose of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace here was to guard the Blood Luo World, to prevent foreign invasions and to stop natives from leaving.
Soon, Luo Fan passed through the layers of cloud and landed on the Blood Luo Continent.
The instant he broke through the mist, he saw a massive mountain range below.
The ship's scanner swept once. Within that billion-square-kilometer mountain range there were three Domain Lord-level powerhouses and more than ten thousand cosmic-level elites.
Only a few dozen kilometers from where he stood was a Domain Lord.
Luo Fan was about to inspect when he noticed the Domain Lord closing in quickly.
"Well then, you delivered yourself to me."
He stepped out of the ship.
As he crossed the threshold, the F9-grade Mechanical Clan ship was stored into his system space.
"You, a Firmament-level human, dare to come to my Sky-Cloud Mountain Range alone!"
The Blood Luo World used different stage names from the Primal Universe.
Ground Stage corresponded to Planetary level.
Sky Stage corresponded to Stellar level.
Firmament Stage corresponded to Cosmic level.
Domain Stage corresponded to Domain Lord.
World Stage corresponded to World Master.
The creature before him had a lizard-like appearance and wings on its back.
This must be one of the Blood Luo World's wild beasts.
At the moment Luo Fan exited the ship, the beast's expression changed.
"No, that was not a meteorite."
"You are an extraterrestrial."
Because the Blood Luo World had no technological ships, the beast immediately discerned Luo Fan's identity.
Its eyes turned blood-red and murderous intent flared.
"A mere Firmament-level outsider? Ha. Die!"
Its massive tail lashed toward Luo Fan.
Luo Fan remained calm. Being discovered was not a problem.
He could simply kill it.
It was only a Domain Lord rank three. Luo Fan did not need to fight personally.
Just as the tail was about to strike, a vine suddenly shot out from Luo Fan's body.
The vine was emerald green and speckled with starlight. At its tip bloomed a ghostly blue flower, also dusted with stars. The center of the flower seemed to hold countless tiny constellations.
The tail froze the instant it touched the vine. The green vine wrapped around the beast and restrained it.
"What is this?"
"Let go, damn you…"
The Domain Lord-level beast was completely bound, even its mouth stuffed with the vine.
This was the Myriad-Star Flower that Luo Fan had obtained earlier.
Although its rise had been slow due to its high potential and high genetic level, after a century of growth it had reached the World Master level.
Not only would it overpower a Domain Lord rank three, even an ordinary peak World Master could not break through its protection to harm Luo Fan's true body.
After a second, the green vine retracted into Luo Fan's body. The wild beast was absorbed by the Myriad-Star Flower.
Unfortunately, it had no Blood Luo Crystal.
Luo Fan flew onward toward another Domain Lord beast.
Soon he found a creature with a serpent tail and a tiger's body.
This time Luo Fan did not use the Myriad-Star Flower. He acted himself.
He slashed, and a tremendous blade arc shot out.
The beast failed to react and its tail was severed.
"Human!" it roared in fury and charged Luo Fan.
Luo Fan struck three more times, cutting off the tiger head and both foreclaws.
The beast was stricken with terror. It tried to flee.
Domain Lords had terrifying vitality; even beheading them would not always kill them.
Luo Fan would not let it go. He vanished and appeared before the creature.
"Where are you going?"
"Spare me, my lord!"
"I can be your mount!"
A muffled voice came from its body. The tiger head had only partly regrown and could not speak, so another part of the beast made sound.
"I will not waste words. You answer my questions."
"If I am satisfied, you will be allowed to leave alive."
"My lord, ask anything. I will tell everything!"
Luo Fan could hear the flattery in the voice.
"Tell me the local situation. Where is the nearest human city?"
"And most importantly, are there Blood Luo Crystals here?"
