#192 - Anyone who steals a hook will be punished, and anyone who steals a country will be a prince!
Just as Luo Fu had expected, when his strength reached a point where the modern social system couldn't eliminate him even with immense sacrifices, the only thing the five major powers could do was negotiate with Luo Fu.

They would offer certain concessions in exchange for Luo Fu not interfering with the order of various countries according to his own will.
And the diplomatic personnel were responsible for the negotiation process with Luo Fu.
With the help of the Outcasts, and because most of the soldiers in the army, except for a very few elderly members, were strong and healthy young men,
after some twists and turns, the soldiers from the five major powers finally climbed to the summit of Nason Island.
Luo Fu had intentionally transformed this summit into a boundless, flat surface.
The entire Nason Island was somewhat like a trapezoid, with nearly vertical sides going straight up and down, while the highest mountain was topped with a flat expanse.
Upon reaching the summit, these soldiers from various countries, even the young and strong ones, were panting for breath.
Luo Fu, however, was standing in front of a spatial vortex, the vortex behind him rippling like water, displaying visible undulations.
Those present on this mountain platform were all soldiers from the five major powers. They were familiar with warfare, but when it came to negotiation, they were completely clueless.
More importantly, as soldiers, they were no different from prisoners at this moment.
This made them even less confident to speak.
After a period of silence, the temporary workers from 'Under One Person', who had some prior contact with Luo Fu, took the initiative to step forward.
"Immortal Luo Fu, we meet again." Wang Zhenqiu waved at Luo Fu as if he didn't understand the meaning of embarrassment, and said, "You've completely become an immortal now, right?"
Luo Fu glanced at Wang Zhenqiu and said, "Immortal? Aside from not knowing how to ascend to immortality, the immortals you know are probably no match for me."
Wang Zhenqiu, Hei Guan'er, Lao Meng, Xiao Zizai, and others were truly choked by Luo Fu's words.
After his shock, Xiao Zizai put his hands together, strode to Luo Fu, bowed, and said, "Please, Immortal, guide me on how to cut off the killing intent within me."
"You have the potential to become a Buddha, why be obsessed with cutting off the killing intent within you? Once you lay down the butcher knife in your heart, you will surely attain Buddhahood," Luo Fu instructed.
"I was fortunate to receive your guidance last time, and I experienced a long-lost peace of mind. I know my shortcomings, and my comprehension is dull, so I can only ask for your help," Xiao Zizai said frankly.
During their last encounter, Luo Fu had indeed helped Xiao Zizai understand the concept of stopping killing with killing, completely venting his inner killing intent, and laying down the butcher knife to become a Buddha on the spot.
Unfortunately, Luo Fu had achieved all of this through illusion techniques.
Moreover, Xiao Zizai's inner killing intent could not be completely laid down with a single venting through illusion techniques.
Don't forget that the effect of the Inner World is actually better than pure illusion in immersing people.
On Mount Wudang, those Taoists who forcibly tried to comprehend the Feng Hou Qi Men due to insufficient opportunity and eventually fell into the Inner World, which one of them was not a determined person?
Even so, after falling into the Inner World, their consciousness remained unable to return to reality for many years.
This shows how lifelike the Inner World really is.
After a moment of silence, Luo Fu said, "I can indeed help you, but this kind of help is only a temporary solution. If you cannot see through your attachments and lay down the butcher knife in your heart on your own, you will eventually sink into the Asura path."
Xiao Zizai hesitated immediately. Luo Fu was clearly a Grand Luo True Immortal, and he could seek help from Luo Fu, but he couldn't ask Luo Fu for help every time.
More importantly, as Luo Fu said, his inner killing intent came from his nature. Unless he obliterated his nature, even if he relied on external help to vent his inner killing intent, it would eventually make a comeback after a long time.
Since this was the case, it would be better to find a way to understand his mind and see his nature, and rely on himself for a permanent solution.
"What about me? What about me?" Wang Zhenqiu came to Luo Fu's side as if joining in the fun, and said, "Since you've guided Brother Xiao, what about me?"
"You?" Luo Fu only glanced at Wang Zhenqiu and said, "Instead of testing me here, you should go back and report what you've seen and heard this time to the company's higher-ups."
Wang Zhenqiu's eyes lit up, and he said impatiently, "Does that mean you're going to let us go? Thank you so much, but our ships have all been destroyed by you. How are we going to get back? How about you help us contact the country?"
"No need for such trouble." Luo Fu had already sensed the country's decision.
Pointing to the vortex behind him, Luo Fu said, "Step through this spatial gate, and you will be able to return to the Sanyi Sect's base."
"That's amazing." Wang Zhenqiu looked surprised and said, "A single step here can take us back to the Sanyi Sect's base? The distance between the two is almost half the globe, right? Doesn't that mean you can go wherever you want in the future?"
Hei Guan'er was afraid that Luo Fu would go back on his word, so she quickly said, "Qiu'er, don't make trouble."
After scolding Wang Zhenqiu, Hei Guan'er bowed to Luo Fu and said, "Thank you, Immortal, we'll take our leave then!"
Following Hei Guan'er's call, after some discussion, the Eastern soldiers, based on the principle of voluntariness, had a portion of them return to the country first with the help of the spatial vortex behind Luo Fu.
For safety's sake, the remaining portion of the people voluntarily stayed behind.
This cautious attitude was naturally based on the principle of not putting all eggs in one basket.
Xiao Zizai and Lao Meng chose to stay temporarily, while Wang Zhenqiu and Hei Guan'er, along with the other soldiers, approached the spatial vortex behind Luo Fu and returned.
After the two sides separated, with a near-certain determination to die, the numerous soldiers, Wang Zhenqiu, and Hei Guan'er stepped into the huge spatial vortex behind Luo Fu without hesitation.
With the instantaneous ripples of spatial waves,
these people instantly disappeared from the summit platform of Nason Island.
The others, regardless of whether they were Outcasts or ordinary soldiers, all showed surprised expressions at this moment.
After some communication, they learned that the spatial vortex behind Luo Fu actually spanned half the globe, sending a large number of soldiers to their own country.
These people were immediately thrown into chaos.
Sanyi Sect's base.
Previously, because Luo Fu had displayed his divine abilities in front of everyone, showing the flesh and blood form of the God of War, Chi You, that was over two hundred meters tall,
and afterwards, the rain of stars like the Eastern Wind was blocked by Luo Fu's gravity, and the warheads were also sent outside the atmosphere. After that, Luo Fu even personally appeared and made a gentleman's agreement with the higher-ups.
This resulted in the Sanyi Sect not being affected in any way.
Even because of the over two hundred meters tall form of the God of War, Chi You, after some distorted interpretations by experts, it instead created a situation where the Sanyi Sect's incense was flourishing.
All of this happened in a short period of time. Many streamers had to travel thousands of miles to Southeast Asia to personally see the Sanyi Sect, where the spectacle of the God of War, Chi You, had appeared.
Even now, when Wang Zhenqiu, Hei Guan'er, and many soldiers of the Eastern Navy crossed the spatial vortex and appeared out of thin air in the Sanyi Sect's martial arts field,
it was fortunate that this place was regarded as a forbidden area by the Sanyi Sect because it was the place where the God of War, Chi You, had manifested. It was not allowed to be visited casually, otherwise, the appearance of Wang Zhenqiu, Hei Guan'er, and the numerous soldiers alone would have been enough to cause another internet frenzy.
As soon as Wang Zhenqiu and others appeared, the country immediately learned the news.
The Sanyi Sect itself was built at Luo Fu's request.
However, because of Luo Fu's departure, the Sanyi Sect had completely become a famous but empty shell, lost the Outcasts guarding the back mountain, and completely degenerated into a purely restored landscape.
However, although the back mountain no longer had the Outcasts of the Sanyi Sect guarding it, this place had once been the territory of the Sanyi Sect after all.
The back mountain area was taken over by the 'Under One Person' company.
This was why Wang Zhenqiu and others contacted the country as soon as they appeared.
After learning the result of the five-nation coalition's attack on Nason Island,
the higher-ups became even more determined to negotiate peacefully with Luo Fu.
After all, Luo Fu's strength in instantly wiping out the five-nation coalition was already terrifying enough.
Not to mention that, according to the analysis of these soldiers, Luo Fu's control over electromagnetic force should have reached the point where he could disassemble and even manipulate chemical bonds.
This kind of physical world, creator-like ability, was no longer something that the modern technological system could target.
Not to mention that Luo Fu had also shown the means to cross the long distance of half the globe through a spatial wave, moving Wang Zhenqiu, Hei Guan'er, and many soldiers from Nason Island to the Sanyi Sect's base in an instant.
This meant that there was really no way to contain Luo Fu anymore.
They could only choose to coexist peacefully with Luo Fu.
After learning the news from the military, the diplomats also sped up their pace and immediately set sail, heading straight for Nathanson Island.
While actions were unfolding domestically, new turmoil was brewing on Nathanson Island.
The primary cause of this was the soldiers from various countries who knew that Luo Fu's spatial ripples could send them home.
These people were now completely terrified of Luo Fu.
Many even changed their title for Luo Fu directly to God.
After all, a creator of the physical world who could disassemble and manipulate chemical bonds was essentially no different from God.
No one wanted to be enemies with Luo Fu anymore.
If Luo Fu was truly provoked, it could even lead to the complete annihilation of human society.
Neither ordinary people nor异人 (yì rén, people with special abilities) could accept such a future.
But this was just the opinion of ordinary people.
People like Ron Keller from Behemoth Corporation were convinced that the reason Luo Fu could display such terrifying power was because he had obtained the divine tree on Nathanson Island.
Despite having witnessed Luo Fu's terrifying strength, the greed in Ron Keller's heart drove him to develop a strong desire for Luo Fu.
He quietly approached Colonel Sean and said, "Sean, find an opportunity to attack Luo Fu. We must capture him. He must have obtained the transcendent power of the divine tree to have such terrifying strength. If we can seize this secret from him, then we can become creators of the physical world in the future. This power and glory should belong to America."
As a soldier and an employee of Behemoth, Colonel Sean had no reason to refuse Ron Keller.
After struggling internally for a moment, Sean said resolutely, "Director, if we attack Luo Fu at this time and anger him, we will all die here."
"The secret on Luo Fu is worth the risk."
Ron Keller had just finished scolding Colonel Sean and was about to continue giving orders when he suddenly noticed that Colonel Sean was looking at him with a terrified expression.
Subconsciously looking down at his body, Ron Keller let out a deafening scream.
Visibly,
Ron Keller's lower body had disappeared without a trace at some point. This disappearance continued to spread upwards.
From the knees, to the legs, the abdomen...
"No! No! Save me, save me!"
The disappearance accelerated, and Ron Keller only managed to cry out for help a few times before he completely vanished into thin air in front of everyone.
"That was..." Sean staggered back a few steps.
He could sense that what had just made Ron Keller disappear was not some flashy magic trick, or even some common异能 (yì néng, superpower) ability.
Ron Keller had disappeared after being completely disassembled.
So far, Sean only knew of one person who could do this.
Luo Fu.
Only his electromagnetic force manipulation, which had reached the point of being able to disassemble chemical bonds, could achieve such an incredible effect.
Sure enough, the moment Sean subconsciously looked at Luo Fu, Luo Fu gave him a meaningful look.
Instantly, Sean's body was soaked in cold sweat.
His speech became stuttering.
Sean said tremblingly to Luo Fu, "Mr... Mr., please don't misunderstand. This... this is just Director Ron's idea. We... we..."
Waving his hand, Luo Fu interrupted Sean and said, "The person who was disrupting peace has disappeared, and you are just soldiers. Now you can also choose to return to your country through the spatial vortex behind me. Of course, if you are not willing to accept defeat, you can continue to wage war against me, but next time, I will not be so merciful."
"We... we can also leave?"
At this moment, Sean and the American soldiers, who had been scared out of their wits, didn't bother to think about whether Luo Fu's words were true or false. Whether this strange spatial vortex led back to their country or to hell, it didn't matter.
All they wanted now was to escape from Luo Fu, the creator of the physical world who could disassemble their bodies at the molecular level!
After receiving Luo Fu's affirmative answer, the numerous American soldiers rushed towards the spatial vortex as if they were crazy, hardly worrying that there might be a trap behind it.
In a short period of time, all the Americans had disappeared from the summit of Nathanson Island's mountains.
With people from the East and America rushing into the spatial vortex one after another,
For a time, the remaining members of the EU and the UK also felt a bit tempted.
The psychological pressure that Luo Fu, this God of the physical world, brought them was truly too terrifying.
They would rather die than face Luo Fu, the creator of the physical world.
After all, death was only a momentary thing.
But staying here meant enduring prolonged psychological pressure. This pressure was enough to drive a normal person crazy.
Ron Keller's terrifying death alone made Luo Fu seem like a demon in the eyes of these soldiers from various countries.
Severely watching their bodies being gradually turned into nothingness by the creator of the physical world through the disassembly of chemical bonds, the mental shock was the most despairing.
For Luo Fu, the greatest value of these soldiers was to allow him to complete the deterrence of the various countries.
When Luo Fu wiped out these naval fleets, these soldiers had already lost their original value.
Who told Luo Fu to have already completed his own deterrence?
Seeing these people eagerly wanting to escape from Nathanson Island, which was more terrifying than hell to them, Luo Fu went with the flow and adjusted the coordinates of the spatial vortex on the other side.
Sending the soldiers of these countries' fleets back to their respective countries.
After Luo Fu completed the deterrence, Zhang Chulan, the sixty-sixth generation Tianshi (Heavenly Master) of the domestic Longhu Mountain, also learned about everything that had happened on Nathanson Island because of his past relationship with Luo Fu.
Upon learning that Luo Fu was safe and sound, Zhang Chulan felt both happy and worried. He was happy that Luo Fu, his childhood playmate, had actually withstood the deterrence of the five major powers. He was worried that from now on, he would probably never have the idea of avenging his grandmaster, Zhang Zhiwei.
Although he knew that Zhang Zhiwei's death was not directly caused by Luo Fu, and even, to be precise, it was not Luo Fu who killed Zhang Zhiwei, but the ironclad rule of the population red line and the modern social technology system of ordinary people that suppressed the异人 (yì rén, people with special abilities).
But Zhang Chulan obviously did not have Luo Fu's strength, nor did he have the confidence to directly challenge the rules that had been tacitly agreed upon for thousands of years like Luo Fu.
Because of his special identity, Zhang Chulan also became part of the second wave of domestic diplomatic members.
Everything on Nathanson Island has become clearer to the country after this period of time.
Obviously, neither the异人 (yì rén, people with special abilities) in the San Yi Sect who followed Luo Fu nor the islanders on Nathanson Island appeared during Luo Fu's confrontation with the five-nation coalition.
It was impossible for these people to have died, so the only explanation was that these people had entered Luo Fu's blessed land to live.
If there was anything that Zhang Chulan was most worried about now, it would definitely be Feng Baobao.
After all, Feng Baobao became Luo Fu's hostage after the previous San Yi Sect incident because she was following him.
Whether it was from the Xu San and Xu Si brothers or from his own feelings for Feng Baobao, Zhang Chulan could not sit idly by and watch Feng Baobao continue to follow Luo Fu, this dangerous guy.
This time, as part of the second wave of diplomatic personnel, Zhang Chulan, in addition to shouldering the responsibility of using his identity as a former playmate to get closer to Luo Fu on official matters, the bigger reason was that Zhang Chulan wanted to take this opportunity to bring Feng Baobao back.
As for the secret on Feng Baobao, Zhang Chulan's only hope now was that Luo Fu had not yet noticed Feng Baobao's abnormality.
After all, Feng Baobao's special characteristic lies in her seemingly immortal lifespan.
Even if she suffers serious injuries, she will recover in a very short period of time. But for Luo Fu, the latter effect is not obvious, and the former requires enough time to be noticed.
The sooner he brings Feng Baobao back from Luo Fu's side, the lower the probability of exposure. This is why Zhang Chulan eagerly agreed the moment the country proposed to include him in the list of the second wave of diplomatic personnel.
On Nathanson Island,
On the towering mountain peak, after only ordinary people returned to their country through the spatial vortex,
Xiao Zizai, Lao Meng, and others who remained on the mountain quickly discovered a problem that needed to be solved urgently.
Food and water.
Not to mention that the original Nathanson Island was in a state of food and clothing shortage. After being extensively transformed by Luo Fu, the current Nathanson Island can no longer be described as an island.
But a towering mountain that suddenly emerged from the vast ocean.
All around are smooth mountain walls like those hewn by knives and axes. There is no vegetation at all. It can truly be said to be a desolate place where not a blade of grass grows and no birds shit.
The platform on the summit was as if it had been meticulously leveled with a spirit level. It was a completely solid piece of stone, the smooth surface so seamless that not even a crack could be found, let alone a source of food or water.
As for the idea of venturing into the sea to catch fish, it's best to just think about it and forget it.
You must understand that the Nason Island platform is nearly a thousand meters above sea level, and the only way to climb up is via those steep metal steps. It would be more accurate to call them ladders.
Standing on the steep cliffs, the energy required for just one round trip up and down is more than a mere one or two fish could replenish.
More importantly, there are a large number of soldiers left behind, and the only place within the surrounding area where they can set foot is the platform on Nason Island.
They had spent a great deal of effort to climb up before, and even the young and strong were panting for breath as they climbed such a mountain.
Asking them to climb down and then climb back up, such a round trip is simply impossible in their current exhausted state.
And at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by the sea on all sides, there is no place to set foot except for the steps that were twisted and reconstructed from the warships of the five nations.
Right now, for the people on the mountain, their situation is almost desperate.
Naturally, Luo Fu couldn't really let these Eastern soldiers who survived the disaster, along with Xiao Zizai, Lao Meng, and the others, wait for the arrival of the national diplomats while suffering from hunger and thirst.
After all, not to mention these soldiers who were originally here to target and strike at him, Xiao Zizai and Lao Meng had not offended Luo Fu in the previous encounters. In fact, Xiao Zizai was quite respectful to Luo Fu because of his past help, and Lao Meng because of Chen Duo's matter.
Luo Fu's blessed land had become a small world-like existence.
Although it doesn't have the sun, moon, and stars of the real universe, with only the islanders of Nason Island and a handful of former followers of Luo Fu, it can not only be self-sufficient, but even provide enough supplies to the outside world.
Now that Luo Fu has mastered the Divine Tree, he can manipulate the time within a certain area of the blessed land, so naturally he doesn't need to worry about the problem of survival supplies.
Although the country has already begun to send diplomatic personnel to Nason Island to contact Luo Fu.
But the ships that the diplomatic personnel are traveling on are different from warships.
Crossing half the Earth, it will take at least a few days to get here at the fastest.
And during this time, these soldiers would probably die of thirst even if they didn't starve to death.
When Luo Fu took the initiative to provide survival supplies, the many Eastern soldiers, Xiao Zizai, Lao Meng, and others present finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Time flew by, and several days later, a fleet of ships from the East finally appeared around Nason Island.
At first glance, seeing the towering mountain that seemed to be a thousand meters high, these diplomats were immediately dumbfounded.
The height was so terrifying, and this Nason Island, with its cliffs on all sides, only had some ladder-like steps that could lead directly to the top of the mountain.
The steepness, coupled with the height of Nason Island's peak, would leave even a strong adult panting for breath when climbing up the steps, or simply the ladder.
Not to mention that these people from the East had prepared some other supplies. Right now, there wasn't even a platform to place them.
Because after Nason Island was completely changed by Luo Fu, there wasn't even a place to moor around it.
Just when these people were at a loss.
The metal steps that were originally close to the mountain suddenly twisted and transformed on their own, and in just a short moment, they turned into a square platform.
The platform extended all the way to the direction of the approaching ships.
The next moment, a man wearing a suit and glasses, who at first glance looked like a taciturn middle-aged office worker, appeared out of thin air on the metal platform in a wave of spatial ripples.
After looking around, Xiao Zizai quickly saw the personnel and ships sent by the motherland this time.
After waving to the ships from afar, Xiao Zizai said loudly: "Hello, I am Xiao Zizai, a temporary worker from All Company, East China. This time, I am following the instructions of Real Person Luo Fu to guide you up the mountain."
"This... how do we get up?" The diplomatic head, also wearing a suit and glasses, looked at Xiao Zizai in confusion and said, "Comrade Xiao, we also brought a lot of supplies. This kind of... ladder-like steps, and such a high altitude, I'm afraid it's impossible to climb up."
"It's okay." Xiao Zizai said with a calm expression: "The people and supplies responsible for going up the mountain to see Real Person Luo Fu only need to be placed on this platform, and Real Person Luo Fu will take us up."
"Can this platform fly? Is this an anti-gravity system?" A younger diplomatic member couldn't help but blurt out.
Xiao Zizai shook his head and really gave the other party an explanation. "No, Real Person Luo Fu is a Great Luo True Immortal, who can easily manipulate gravity and magnetism. We only need to stand on the platform, and the Real Person will naturally have a way to lift the entire platform to the top of the mountain."
These words were specially instructed by Luo Fu before Xiao Zizai left the top of the mountain.
At this moment, they were almost unadornedly retold by Xiao Zizai.
Xiao Zizai's words also made these people instantly realize that what they were going to face this time was not some foreign politicians or diplomats, but a different person who possessed all kinds of magic, like a god in mythology.
"Then we will trouble Real Person Luo Fu and Comrade Xiao."
As the people on the ship quickly became busy, the supplies specially prepared by the country, and many personnel, stepped onto the platform one after another.
When everyone was ready, for a time, their eyes were all focused on Xiao Zizai.
Xiao Zizai, who was not at ease, also specially asked, and after receiving an affirmative answer, he followed Luo Fu's instructions and remotely sent a message to Luo Fu.
Silently, the metal platform began to rise out of thin air, heading straight for the summit of Nason Island.
"It... it can really be done?" The head of the diplomatic mission had only been an ordinary person before, and what he had come into contact with were some normal countries. Although he had heard of so-called different people, today was the first time he had truly seen the means of different people.
Controlling gravity, manipulating magnetism, different people can be like superheroes in comics.
Xiao Zizai's temperament is obviously not the type who is good at communicating with people.
But in order to complete this task, and because Xiao Zizai is an employee of All Company, even if he is a temporary worker, he is considered half of his own people.
After the head of the diplomatic mission was curious about the platform under his feet, he quickly came to Xiao Zizai and said: "Comrade Xiao Zizai, in addition to seeing Real Person Luo Fu this time, the more important thing is to take you home. Have you communicated with Real Person Luo Fu? What kind of person do you think Real Person Luo Fu is, and what is the best way to contact him?"
This question made Xiao Zizai fall into a short period of silence.
In fact, Xiao Zizai's influence on Luo Fu is really a bit vague.
He personally, naturally, is very grateful to Luo Fu, but from the company's perspective, Luo Fu is an out-and-out criminal.
Of course, now Luo Fu can no longer be described as a criminal.
He who steals a hook is punished, and he who steals a country becomes a prince. Luo Fu has undoubtedly reached the latter state.
His strength to easily destroy the five-nation coalition forces is enough to give Luo Fu the confidence to dominate the earth.
Since becoming a temporary worker of the company, Xiao Zizai has completely become accustomed to considering issues from the company's standpoint.
But it is precisely because of this that he helplessly discovered that, within his range of knowledge, he could not accurately locate Luo Fu.
After thinking about it, Xiao Zizai said: "Real Person Luo Fu is a true cultivator of the Dao, his realm is unfathomable, like a Great Luo True Immortal, you only need to treat Real Person Luo Fu with sincerity."
Sincere treatment sounds simple, but for a diplomat, this is the most difficult thing to do.
You can't just say whatever the other party asks in the exchange with Luo Fu, right? Wouldn't that be treason?
Seeing the other party's embarrassed look, Xiao Zizai quickly looked to the side, "Get ready, we'll be there soon!"
The head of the diplomatic mission in silence was stunned.
So fast?
