Devouring the Starry Sky: Eclipse Palace Master

Chapter 155 "Lord of the Flame God" and "Emperor of the Flame"

In the vast starry universe, Li Yang, the only leader of the human race today, has plunged headfirst into the research of the blood and corpses of the world beasts since he obtained the blood and huge corpses of the world beasts that contained the aura of the endless law of chaos and annihilation.

Time flows slowly, passing away quietly like the gurgling stream.

During this long period of time, the human race has grown rapidly like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, and many strong people have emerged.

As for Li Yang, relying on the increase in the number of strong people in the human race, his own "speed of increasing understanding" is also growing at an astonishing rate.

Now, every time Li Yang immerses himself in the perception of the laws of the universe, he seems to be able to perceive the laws of the operation of the universe. Those mysterious laws flicker and gather in his mind like bright stars.

……

Soon, Li Yang's comprehension broke through to the initial stage of God King realm. In the cognition of the powerful God Kings in the Origin Continent, this was the first stage of God King realm.

At that moment, the light of law flashed in his eyes, as if he could see through the trajectory of all things in the universe.

Then, he devoted all his energy to the study of the corpse of the world beast.

Countless days and nights passed, and Li Yang successfully comprehended the law of destruction corresponding to the law of life.

At this time, Li Yang had reached a new height in his comprehension of the laws, fully meeting the requirements for breaking through to the Chaos Saint realm.

However, he was not overwhelmed by the joy.

He knew clearly that his own gene multiples had not yet reached the perfect 10-fold genetic level, and there was still room for improvement.

This is just like the foundation of a high-rise building is not yet solid, and blind breakthroughs will only bring hidden dangers.

So, he calmed down and continued to study the route of divine power in seclusion, working hard to increase his gene multiples.

Li Yang thought to himself, "Haste makes waste. On this long road of cultivation, steady progress is the right way. I have plenty of time, so why rush for a breakthrough?"

……

During the time when Li Yang was in seclusion and practicing, many interesting things were quietly happening in the vast starry sky of the human race's territory in the original universe, like undercurrents surging beneath the calm surface of a lake.

The first thing that caused a stir was the rise of the Yanshen clan among the human population.

Cao Benqi, who was once the selfish Emperor Yan in the original novel, was carefully cultivated by the human race's True God Baishan. He went through countless hardships and obstacles and finally broke through to the realm of the Lord of the Universe.

This breakthrough, with the help of the treasure bestowed by the True God Baishan and the blessing of his own genetic multiples, directly reached the strength of a third-level lord of the universe.

In order to reward his breakthrough, the tribe gave him an extremely precious and top-level treasure.

Emperor Yan thought about it again and again, and finally chose a top-level treasure that he did not have.

Afterwards, Cao Benqi stood on the ancestral star of the Yanshen Clan, his eyes flashing with pride and greed, and loudly declared to his people and many powerful humans: "From today on, I am the Yan Emperor, and this world will tremble under my flames!"

……

However, fate always seems to play tricks.

Before Emperor Yan could fully enjoy the supreme glory of the Yan Clan, Xi Qihang, a disciple of the Yan Clan accepted by True God Yunling, the seemingly inconspicuous little guy, followed Cao Benqi's footsteps like a dark horse and broke through to the realm of the Lord of the Universe.

Xi Qihang has a straightforward and resolute character. Although his character is not outstanding, he is much better than Emperor Yan in dealing with people and doing things.

Since there are too many Lords of the Universe in the human race nowadays, just like the former Lords of the Universe, they will simply upgrade their authority in the virtual universe and will no longer hold a special welcome party.

Therefore, today, the Lord of the Universe of the human race will announce his title of Lord of the Universe to his own race after a breakthrough.

Xi Qihang was naturally no exception.

He stood on the ancestral star of the tribe, his 1-meter-tall human body proudly standing, facing the surprised eyes of the crowd, and shouted loudly: "I am the Lord of the Flame God. In the name of the God of Fire, I will protect the glory of my Flame God tribe!"

This time, it stirred up a hornet's nest.

When Emperor Yan Cao Benqi heard this title, his face instantly darkened and he was secretly angry: "This kid actually dared to compete with me. He really doesn't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is!"

However, Xi Qihang didn't care about the anger of Emperor Yan at all. He knew that in this world where the strong are respected, only strength can win real respect. The teacher of the Lord of Yan was the True God of the Human Race.

The True God Yunling and his teacher, the Ancestor Tianshi, have the same style in training their disciples; both are generous and not stingy in giving rewards.

Before Xi Qihang became powerful, he was given the opportunity to create a clone by his teacher, the True God Yunling. After a long period of nurturing, he successfully created three clones.

Now, with his original body, he alone possesses the combat power of the four masters of the universe. The treasures on his body are dazzling, and each of them exudes a powerful aura that makes people's heart frightened.

In comparison, Emperor Yan Cao Benqi's situation seemed a bit embarrassing.

In terms of strength, he is no match for Xi Qihang;
As for his prestige among the Yanshen clan, he has long been unpopular due to his selfish and self-interested style of behavior.

At this moment, his title of "Emperor Yan" was like a hot potato. If he kept it, he was not as strong as others and his clansmen did not support him; if he changed his name, he would feel embarrassed, as if he was showing weakness and admitting defeat to Xi Qihang.

……

The more Emperor Yan thought about it, the angrier he became. Instead of looking for the problem within himself, he secretly resented his teacher, True God Baishan: "Humph, it's all that old guy's fault. He's not as generous as True God Yunling. If I had more resources and opportunities, I wouldn't have ended up like this!"

Over time, the True God Baishan became so perceptive that he naturally noticed the little thoughts in Emperor Yan's mind.

He looked at his second disciple, who he once had high hopes for, but now had become so narrow-minded and selfish. He was filled with disappointment. He knew that even if he trained him, he would just be an ungrateful person who could never be tamed. Naturally, he gradually began to distance himself from Emperor Yan.

Having lost the support of his teacher, the True God Baishan, Emperor Yan's life among the human community became increasingly frustrating.

Every time he attended a gathering or event of the Lord of the Universe of the human race, he could feel the strange looks and whispers from the people around him. Some of those looks were mocking, and some were disdainful.

But what can he do? The human race today is no longer as powerful as it used to be.

The number of Lords of the Universe is about to break through the 150 mark, and many of them have several clones. If we talk about the combat power at the level of Lords of the Universe, it will surely break through 300.

The number of true gods is also the highest in the universe. Not counting the three incarnations of the ancestor of Tianxie, there are as many as 12.

In front of such a powerful clan, Emperor Yan is just a drop in the ocean. No matter how much dissatisfaction and resentment he has in his heart, he can only bury it deep in his heart, endure it all silently, and dare not show any expression at all.

He knew very well that if he did anything to let down the human race, even if it was just a small thought, once it was discovered, he would be spurned and punished by the entire race, and then he would have nowhere to escape.

Li Yang was silently following all these developments.

Today, Li Yang, the founder of the Sky Eclipse, controls the highest authority in the virtual universe. Through the virtual universe, he can see every detail of the human race.

Whenever he saw Emperor Yan's embarrassed look as he was cautious and careful in his conduct, the corners of Li Yang's mouth would slightly rise, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

He was secretly happy in his heart: "It really is true that as long as you are strong enough, no one will dare to do anything bad to you. This Emperor Yan was once so arrogant and domineering, but now he can only behave himself. It's really ridiculous. And I will go further and further on this road to becoming a strong man and protect the glory of my human race!"

……

As time goes by, the development of human population becomes more and more vigorous.

In the endless starry sky, the territory of human race, and on the planets as numerous as stars, magnificent interstellar cities rise from the ground, shining with brilliant light, like dazzling pearls inlaid on the canvas of the universe.

In every city, there live countless powerful humans and ordinary people. They work hard in their respective positions and contribute their strength to the prosperity of the human race.

And after a long period of seclusion and practice, Li Yang finally raised his gene multiples to a new level, reaching 99999 times.

At this moment, he was only one step away from the perfect 10-fold genetic level.

He slowly opened his eyes, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes, as if it could penetrate the barriers of time and space.

Standing up, Li Yang stretched his body, and his bones made crackling sounds. A powerful aura spread around like surging waves.

He knew that he was about to have a major breakthrough.
