Master of Devouring Stars

"Above the lord?"

The small blue snake paused slightly, then nodded: "That's right. According to the way things are done in your world, the Sovereign is a realm above the Lord, and it is also the ultimate goal of cultivation!"

Upon hearing the confirmation from the little blue snake, a hint of excitement flashed in Li Ze's eyes. Although many of the Hunyuan Lords, including Yuan, had previously speculated about a level above the lord, it was only today that the existence of this level was confirmed.

"The path of cultivation you have taken is extraordinary." The blue snake said with great emotion, "You have opened up the universe within your body, and you are the universe yourself. You not only have an incomparably profound accumulation, but you can also integrate all the myriad paths into one."

Li Ze nodded slightly, inwardly marveling at how insightful the little blue snake was, seeing through his path of the inner universe at a glance.

“The normal path of cultivation, at its ultimate end, only leads to the strongest being, which is the Hunyuan Lord of your world.” The blue snake continued, “Only the special path you have taken has a glimmer of hope to break through to a higher level.”

"Normally, your chances of breaking through to the Hunyuan Lord level are very slim, but if you can successfully pass the test of the Ancient Path of the Sovereign, your chances will be much greater."

"The trial of dominating the ancient road?" Li Ze couldn't help but look at the other person: "What trial?"

In his view, this was already the end of the stone steps, so what other challenges could there be?

"Hehe, the stone steps you walked on before were just the passage to the Ancient Road of the Sovereign. This is just the beginning!" the cyan snake laughed. "Next, your test will be to fight against some of the strongest and most powerful beings in our world."

"But in this battle, your life will be in danger!"

Li Ze was silent for a moment, then a surge of excitement rose in his heart.

With his current strength, apart from those who have truly reached the level of a Hunyuan Lord, no one can pose a threat to him. And these supreme experts that the little blue snake mentioned may bring him a lot of trials.

"Of course, in this battle you are only fighting the avatars of those powerful beings and supreme beings. With the arrangements of the Sovereign, they are no different from real life." The cyan snake seemed to see through Li Ze's thoughts and smiled faintly, "This battle is dangerous, but it also has opportunities."

"If you can kill these avatars, you will be able to perfectly absorb some of their cultivation experience, and even comprehend the essence of the Dao that those supreme experts comprehend."

Li Ze was increasingly shocked.

There can be such great benefits?
The essence of the Dao is that any world-class Hunyuan expert who comprehends one aspect of the Dao can break through to the level of Hunyuan Lord.

Although he comprehended many Daos through the uniqueness of his inner universe, he never comprehended the essence of any Dao.

Not only him, but in the entire Infinite Chaos Space, only a few lords in the cultivator camp have comprehended the essence of the Dao.

But now, this ancient path of domination actually possesses a means that allows him to comprehend the essence of the Dao.

If this news were to reach the ears of other powerful figures in the Hunyuan Space, all the Hunyuan powerful figures in the entire Hunyuan Space would probably go completely mad.

"This Ancient Road of Domination is truly defying the heavens!" Li Ze exclaimed inwardly.

"Of course, even if you cannot kill those supreme beings' avatars, as long as you can persist in fighting them for 100,000 years, you can stop fighting at any time and leave the Ancient Road of Domination," the cyan snake said.

Upon hearing this, Li Ze nodded slightly.

"Go, in the battle to come, you will not be able to use any external weapons," the blue snake continued. "You can only rely on your own strength."

After saying that, the small blue snake spat out a blue ball of light, which flew directly towards the stone tablet in the center of the platform and merged into it.

The moment the sphere of light completely disappeared.

Whoosh! The stone tablet suddenly released endless cyan light. This light seemed to have a life of its own, and as soon as it appeared, it covered the endless void in front of the stone tablet.

Rumble~
The entire void trembled, and vast universes gradually appeared under the illumination of the light, stretching out into the distant void like steps.

Whoosh!
Li Ze moved and flew directly into the staircase formed by numerous universes in the distance.

"He's really confident," the little blue snake thought to itself. "I just wonder if he can pass all the tests and obtain what the Sovereign left behind?"

"The strongest beings who can be included in the Ancient Road of the Sovereign are all top-tier."

"I hope you can gain more benefits on the Ancient Path of Domination." The little blue snake shook its head gently.

He thought highly of Li Ze.

But they didn't believe Li Ze could pass all the tests. Whew! Whew!
Li Ze flew off the stone platform and landed on the steps made up of many universes. He immediately felt the surrounding spacetime distorted and everything was isolated.

The small blue snake was not visible.

The stone platform behind cannot be seen.

There was only the universe beneath my feet, and the endless, dark void around me with no sense of boundaries.

"Wow!"

Suddenly.

A vast upheaval erupted in the universe beneath their feet, causing the entire void to rumble.

A dazzling figure appeared opposite Li Ze. It was a handsome man clad in blue armor, exuding unparalleled power, and wielding a silver battle sword.
As soon as he appeared, he lunged at Li Ze with murderous intent.

"Young man, perish." The handsome man in blue armor spoke with a resounding voice.

He brandished his sword and charged.

"Was the first one to appear Canglan?" The moment the handsome man in blue armor appeared, the small blue snake on the already vanished stone platform murmured to itself, "The first incarnation is already the strongest level below the Supreme Power?"

On the steps formed by numerous universes
The moment he saw the handsome man in blue armor charging towards him, the Heavenly Calamity Sword appeared in Li Ze's hand.

"Let me see just how strong this supreme being from another world really is!"

call!
Li Ze directly swung the Heavenly Calamity Sword in his hand, sweeping it across.

At the same time, a virtual universe quietly appeared around Li Ze, with endless Daoist charm emanating from it. Soon, a vast sword-shaped universe appeared around Li Ze.

"Sword Universe, go!" Li Ze shouted softly.

The vast sword-shaped universe immediately slashed forward, instantly merging with the sword light unleashed by the Heavenly Calamity Sword. The boundless sword light, as if splitting the heavens and earth, caused the endless void to be instantly divided in two.

"Clang!" Swords clashed.

The battle blade in the hand of the handsome man in blue armor, the avatar of a supreme expert, was directly severed by the sword light unleashed by Li Ze. Immediately afterwards, the power of the sword light seemed undiminished, continuing to sweep across, as if crushing everything in the myriad realms.

"This, how can your sword light be so strong?" The handsome man in blue armor was shocked and angry, seemingly unable to believe that his attack was so weak, and he tried his best to block Li Ze's attack with both fists.

But the next moment.

"Pfft~"

Sword light crisscrossed, and myriad paths clashed. In just one exchange, Li Ze cleaved through his body with a single sword strike, causing the handsome man in blue armor to explode and be completely annihilated.

In the first universe, everything calmed down.

"Too weak." Li Ze muttered to himself, "This kind of strength is not even as good as an ordinary Primordial Ancestor."

"not enough!"

"not enough!"

"I hope the next supreme expert won't disappoint me," Li Ze muttered to himself.

hum~
Suddenly, the body of the handsome man in blue armor, which had been shattered by the attack, transformed into countless rays of light that rushed into Li Ze's body, and countless insights surged into Li Ze's mind.

"Yes, Not Bad."

"This is a completely different understanding of the Dao from what I've comprehended before. Savoring it carefully has slightly increased my strength," Li Ze muttered to himself.

But it is not enough, far from enough.

boom!
Li Ze didn't linger, roaring towards the distant reaches of space, intending to confront an even more powerful avatar. (End of Chapter)
