Master of Devouring Stars

As Li Ze struggled to advance on the path to dominance.

In a hidden space-time area of ​​Tianxun Mountain, several figures stood, and in front of them was the projected image of Li Ze moving forward.

"Ancestor, do you think this descendant named Li Ze can reach the end of the Ancient Road of Domination?" A figure completely shrouded in black mist, with only his head visible, looked at the figure in the middle.

The figure in the middle was none other than 'Tian Xun' whom Li Ze had seen before.

“It’s hard to say. None of us went this far on the Ancient Road of Domination. Maybe he can reach the end, or maybe he will fail in the next moment.” Tian Xun’s eyes were dark as he looked at Li Ze on the light screen: “I can sense that the path he is taking is very special, but in the end, he has not reached the level of the Primordial Lord.”

"If he fails too, when will we ever see someone who has the potential to break through to the level of a lord?" Another figure, whose body was enormous but completely bound and imprisoned by black chains, sighed.

“I think Li Ze can succeed.” On the other side, a short, thin figure said in a sharp voice, “We have all reached the level of Hunyuan Lord, but our performance on the Ancient Road of Domination was far inferior to that of Li Ze.”

These individuals were all once members of the Tianxun Clan who reached the level of Hunyuan Lords, and naturally, they had all entered the Ancient Path of the Sovereigns.

However, their progress on the Ancient Road to Domination was far slower than Li Ze's current pace.

This is not because of Li Zeqiang, but because he follows the path of the inner universe, which makes him naturally suited for enlightenment. And the most important thing on the path to dominating the ancient world is precisely the understanding of the Dao.
The words of the short, thin figure made Tian Xun and the other figures nod slightly.

“We have no other choice but to trust him.” Tian Xun said after a moment of silence, “To break the seal that the Hunyuan Space rules have placed on you, you must possess strength above the Lord level.”

"At present, Li Ze is the most likely to achieve this."

“Even if he doesn’t succeed this time, it doesn’t matter. The marks of time on his body are very short. As long as he doesn’t perish on the Ancient Road of Domination, he will have plenty of opportunities in the future,” Tian Xun encouraged.

In his eyes, Li Ze had immense potential, his talent far surpassed theirs back then, and the cultivation path he followed was something even he couldn't understand. All of this made him even more convinced that Li Ze had the potential to break through to the level of a lord.

suddenly.

"Ok?"

"No!" The figure shrouded in black mist exclaimed in surprise, "Look at him! The changes in him... he really has a chance to reach the end of the Ancient Road of the Sovereign!"

Upon hearing this, Tian Xun and the other figures immediately looked towards the light screen.

The next moment, a look of surprise appeared on their faces as well.

"He... he was able to comprehend the Dao contained within the attack of the Ancient Path of Domination so quickly?" Tian Xun asked in a trembling voice.
He couldn't believe it.

As the Lord of Hunyuan and the first to obtain the extraordinary treasure, the Ancient Road of Domination, he believed his vision was high enough that it would be difficult for anything below the level of Lord of Hunyuan to surprise him.

but now.

Li Ze's performance truly surpassed his understanding and his previous perception of the strong.

"Could it be... a miracle? Could he really reach the end of the Ancient Road of Domination and obtain more secrets beyond the Lord level?" Tian Xun stared at the light screen, watching the changes in Li Ze.

Return to the seemingly endless stone steps of the ancient road of the Sovereign.

Li Ze had gone mad with rage.

At this moment, the number of figures condensed from the ancient path of domination around them had decreased from an endless number to less than a hundred. However, each of these hundred figures controlled multiple perfectly integrated Daos, and their strength had almost reached the level of an ordinary Primordial Ancestor.

Some of these attacks even carried the power of the Dao's essence, approaching that of a true Primordial Lord.

Even someone as strong as Li Ze is now almost in dire straits facing the siege of these figures.

“These figures originate from the source of the ancient treasure, the Road to Domination. Their power seems inexhaustible. If I cannot sever their connection with the source of the Road to Domination, it will be almost impossible for me to destroy them.” Li Ze’s mind raced as he fought.

"Now my strength has almost reached the limit of what I can exert. First, I need to sever the connection between these figures and the origin of the Ancient Road of the Sovereign. I must perfectly integrate the Dao that I originally comprehended with the Dao that I comprehended in the Ancient Road of the Sovereign and incorporate it into my secret technique."

"Only in this way will there be a sliver of hope!"

Thinking it over, Li Ze immediately took action. His mind raced, and his inner universe began to rapidly simulate, evolve, and merge, improving his secret techniques one by one and applying them to battle.

Wow~
A white sword light suddenly flew out from the Heavenly Calamity Sword in Li Ze's hand. Its power was extremely vast, containing endless creative energy. Wherever it passed, vast universes were opened up and born, and countless lives were created within them.

Wow~
Another incredibly dark sword light flew out from the Heavenly Calamity Sword. Wherever the sword light went, everything turned into nothingness, as if it wanted to destroy everything.

At this moment of near despair, Li Ze's heart became increasingly calm, and his mind rapidly deduced one sword technique after another.

The source of the world was devoured over countless years, allowing for rapid comprehension along the ancient path of domination.

Li Ze's understanding of the Dao was already profound enough, but his desires were too grand and vast. It was not enough to gather all the Daos of the Primordial World into himself; he also wanted to completely integrate some of the Daos from the Primordial World and some of the Daos from the Ancient Road of the Sovereign.

Normally speaking, even with his talent, it would take him a long time to achieve all of this.

but now.

Li Ze was unsure whether he would truly perish if he failed, after all, Tian Xun had said that entering the Ancient Road of the Sovereign was life-threatening.

In this life-or-death situation, Li Ze's full potential was unleashed, and he vowed to surpass his past achievements, create even stronger secret techniques, and carve out a path to survival for himself.

"boom!"

"boom!"

However, the numerous figures that the Sovereign Ancient Road had gathered would not give Li Ze a chance to calmly comprehend the Dao. Their attacks became increasingly violent and vast, bombarding him relentlessly.

Their attacks landed on Li Ze, making him increasingly unsteady and his breath gradually weaken.

suddenly.

"All paths merge into one." Li Ze suddenly moved, and endless energy burst forth from his inner universe, impacting all directions.

"Given my current situation, it is almost impossible for me to fully comprehend the Ancient Path of Domination and integrate it into the Dao I have previously comprehended."

"However, these paths are not without roots. They are all contained within the universe within my body. Since they cannot be perfectly integrated, then let's unleash them in the form of the universe. Isn't that a secret technique?"

"After all, everything I have is based on the universe within my body!" Li Ze thought it through very clearly.

Since it is impossible to fuse all the Daos to create a more powerful secret technique in a short time, then let's use the inner universe as a carrier and directly unleash them!

now.

The endless power of origin spread outward, instantly condensing into a miniature universe around Li Ze, completely enveloping him. Within the universe, numerous Daoist principles materialized, directly blocking the attacks from the many figures around him.

Although the universe trembled violently, it was able to barely cope with the impact thanks to the support of Li Ze's inexhaustible primal power.

"The myriad paths of the universe naturally possess endless defense!" "And now, I need to integrate them into sword light and unleash them as an attack!" Li Ze's mind raced.

With the universe within his body, it was easy for him to condense a similar universe outside his body to contain the many Daos he had comprehended, but it was extremely difficult to transform them into a single sword technique!

Countless insights collided in Li Ze's mind, and the universe evolving around him was also changing rapidly.

Time passed little by little.

While struggling to keep going, Li Ze continued to study and deduce.

until a certain moment.

It was as if a flash of inspiration came to mind, or as if it were a natural progression.

"Om~"

Li Ze felt as if everything around him had slowed down, and the universe surrounding him was undergoing strange and unpredictable changes.

Gradually, the universe transformed into a sword!
"Using the universe directly as a sword to attack?" Li Ze observed the evolution of the surrounding universe. The Dao contained within the entire universe seemed to be undergoing irregular evolution, yet it also seemed to be following some special law.

prior to.

The universe that Li Ze condensed outside his body was extremely powerful, but he could not use it to launch proactive attacks.

But from this moment on, the universe becomes a sword. Li Ze no longer needs to wield the Heavenly Calamity Sword. With just a thought, he can transform the entire universe into sword light.

"This universe is based on the universe within me, and is also a manifestation of the universe within me."

“Even with a real weapon, such as the Heavenly Calamity Sword, a Lord-level Primordial Treasure, I could not possibly bear the power of the entire universe within my body.” A smile appeared on Li Ze’s lips. “But now, without using a weapon, I can unleash a sword strike that far surpasses what I used to.”

Even the most powerful Hunyuan Secret Treasure has its limits.

In particular, after Li Ze's strength increased to the level of Hunyuan Lord, even a Lord-level Hunyuan Secret Treasure like the Heavenly Tribulation Sword could only bear a portion of his power at most. This power was only a very small part of the total power of the universe within Li Ze's body.

Now, he uses all the Dao within his inner universe as a foundation, transforming the universe into a sword. Although he still cannot unleash all the power of his inner universe in an instant, its power far surpasses all the sword techniques he created before.

"From this day forward, I will transform the universe into a single sword." Li Ze murmured to himself, "The power unleashed will likely far surpass that of an ordinary Chaos Lord!"

If it were any other powerful being, even those world-level Chaos Origin beings whose bodies were like the Origin World, whose every move contained power comparable to the Origin World, they would simply be unable to contend with any Chaos Origin Lord level being.

But Li Ze's inner universe is different.

On the one hand, although his inner universe is smaller than any other source world in terms of volume, the endless years of devouring massive amounts of source world power have caused the energy accumulation within his inner universe to far exceed that of the most advanced source worlds.

On the other hand, the universe within his body contains almost all the Dao found in the source worlds, and even some Daos not found in many source worlds of the Hunyuan Space, such as the Dao of the Primordial World.

When these principles are perfectly combined, the power contained within his body's universe far surpasses the total power within the body of an ordinary Hunyuan Lord.

Li Ze, however, was simply unable to unleash these powers to their fullest extent.

"If one day in the future..."

“My inner universe has evolved into a higher-level source world. I can unleash the full power of my inner universe in an instant.” Li Ze thought to himself, “Then, I’m afraid there will be no strong opponent for me in the vast primordial space.”

"This is my way."

"Based on the universe within my body, it transforms into a sword of slaughter." Li Ze felt the terrifying power contained within the surrounding universe after it transformed into a sword shape, and thought to himself, "Let's call this move 'Sword Universe'."

call!
With a thought, the sword-shaped universe around Li Ze instantly emitted a hazy light, and the vast sword light swept outwards in an instant.

The figures that had been frantically attacking him were instantly enveloped by the sword light.

this moment.

Through the Sword Universe, Li Ze directly saw the connection between the figures around him and the Ancient Road of the Sovereign, and also saw the vast and endless primordial power at the end of the Ancient Road of the Sovereign.

"Now that you've seen it, then break it for me!"

With a thought, the vast amount of primordial power within Li Ze's body instantly vanished into nothingness, and the sword light, carrying endless Daoist aura, directly annihilated the endless void surrounding the stone steps.

The many figures that had been besieging Li Ze were instantly shattered by the sword light.

In an instant, the area centered around the ancient stone steps leading to the main road where Li Ze was located fell silent.

And it was at this moment that Li Ze saw the end of the Ancient Road of Domination.

At the end of the stone steps, a square stone platform is suspended in the air.

Li Ze stepped directly up the stone steps.

Soon, he climbed onto the stone platform.

In the center of the stone platform, there is nothing but an ancient, blue stone tablet.

Li Ze looked at the stone tablet and saw two mysterious symbols engraved on it. The moment he looked at these two symbols, the word 'Dominator' appeared in his mind.

"Is this the end of the Path to Domination? Why haven't I received any information?" Li Ze stared at the words "Path to Domination" on the stone tablet, puzzled.

at this time.

hum~
Countless blue light spots flew out from the stone tablet, and as the light spots danced, a small blue snake appeared not far from Li Ze.

"Congratulations, you have passed the outermost test of the Sovereign's Ancient Road, the 'Ten Thousand Stone Ladders'." A gentle voice rang out from the little blue snake: "Next, you are qualified to fight against many of the Sovereign's supreme experts."

"If you pass, you will receive the legacy left by the Sovereign; if you fail, you will remain here forever."

"Ok?"

Li Ze stared in astonishment at the slightly ethereal blue snake not far away and asked, "Was the previous test just an outer trial? Who are you?"

The small blue snake looked at Li Ze with a human-like smile: "I am the embodiment of the rules of this Ancient Road of Domination. You cannot see me unless you pass the outer trials."

"Just like those beings from your world who came into this world over the endless ages, they couldn't even get through the outer stone steps, so naturally they couldn't make me show myself."

"And you, with your extraordinary performance, are the first life in this world to meet the rules originally set by the Sovereign." The blue snake praised, "Moreover, the path of cultivation you have taken is very extraordinary, and you have the potential to become the Sovereign of this world."

"Dominator?" Li Ze paused, then seemed to understand something and asked, "Dominator, is that a realm above the Chaos Origin Lord?" (End of Chapter)
