Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 321 Centuries Later
The five newly established cosmic kingdoms are named after the five cosmic venerables, and the Myriad Realms Cosmic Kingdom, which is led by Lu Qingshan, is the most expansive of them, containing more than 13,000 star fields of varying sizes, making it quite large among the many cosmic kingdoms of the human race.

The process of establishing a space kingdom is both simple and complicated!
The simplicity lies in the fact that the human race has already completely divided the territories of the five major cosmic nations. Many powerful members of the human race only need to use these territories as boundaries to build many important planets within each cosmic nation, such as administrative planets, military bases, and so on!
Just like within the Myriad Realms Universe Kingdom, a total of eighteen administrative stars have been built in different regions. Through these administrative stars, the entire territory of the Myriad Realms Universe Kingdom will naturally be able to be managed in the future.

With the entire human race as their backing, and with numerous immortal gods leading countless realm lords in their participation, the establishment of these administrative stars was quite rapid. After selecting suitable locations, they were built in a very short time.

The problem lies in the fact that this newly opened territory is far too vast. Even with the resources of the human race, it is impossible to continuously build life-bearing planets in various territories.

After all, there are more than 13,000 star regions in the Myriad Worlds Universe, and each star region has tens of thousands of star systems (similar to the Milky Way where Earth is located in the original work). Theoretically, each star system has hundreds of thousands of life-bearing planets.

It is impossible for humanity to artificially create life-bearing planets in every galaxy. Therefore, in the long years to come, explorers will be needed to continuously discover life-bearing planets in this vast territory.

Of course, such a task, which requires a long period of time, is impossible for the strong among the human race to undertake, so it naturally falls into the hands of those lesser beings at the cosmic or even stellar level.

Just like the adventurer team that discovered Earth in the original work, etc...

They discovered a new planet inhabited by life, and if they had the support of a family, they could become the masters of this planet!

Even without family support, one can still seize this opportunity to acquire a staggering fortune.

If a life-bearing planet has no intelligent life and is only suitable for human reproduction, the family behind its discoverer will naturally transport a large number of life to the new life-bearing planet to reproduce.

If life has already been conceived on a habitable planet, then any alien races should naturally be suppressed.

If the life that is conceived is a branch of the human race, it will generally be allowed to successfully connect to the universe. Of course, there are also cases where the entire race is enslaved.

However, under such circumstances, if a powerful figure rises from this race, the slave traders and others behind him will naturally suffer.

Of course, such a thing seems very important, but it is a trivial matter for some ordinary immortals, let alone a cosmic venerable like Lu Qingshan.

As the ruler of a cosmic kingdom, Lu Qingshan's task was quite simple: he only needed to allocate the territory within the kingdom to his powerful subordinates, and the rest would naturally be planned and developed by the numerous powerful individuals under these families.

For example, members at the World Lord and Domain Lord levels would stay in their respective areas, while members at the Universe and Stellar levels would explore life-bearing planets whose specific coordinates had never been discovered before, and so on...

Under Lu Qingshan's plan, there will be three thousand intermediate-level universe civilizations in the Myriad Realms Universe. These intermediate-level universe civilizations will occupy nearly eight thousand star domains. As for the remaining five thousand star domains, they will be the direct star domains of the royal family of the Myriad Realms Universe, which is Lu Qingshan's family.

In addition, Lu Qingshan also conferred titles upon thirty-six kings and one thousand and eighty marquises in one go.

Some kings in the universe are only capable of being marquises, but the thirty-six kings appointed by Lu Qingshan are all strong enough to be appointed kings simply by relying on their understanding of the laws, having already passed the eighteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven.
As for the 1,080 marquises, they were all immortal and thus truly deserving of the title.

Moreover, the kings and marquises conferred by Lu Qingshan are all powerful individuals who are willing to relocate the main strength of their entire family to the territory of the Myriad Realms Universe Kingdom for development. After being conferred kingships and marquises by Lu Qingshan, they and their families will become the backbone of the Myriad Realms Universe Kingdom in the future.

As for the trivial matters in the development of the territory, Lu Qingshan naturally stopped paying attention to them and handed them over to Lu Hongwen and Hoggs.

Of course, Lu Qingshan did not completely abandon his duties. Instead, he borrowed a group of experienced immortal gods from Yanfeng Kingdom Lord and dozens of other universe kingdom lords to assist Lu Hongwen and Lu Qingshan in developing the Myriad World Universe Kingdom.

After settling matters within the Myriad Realms Universe, Lu Qingshan naturally focused his main energy on the Primal Star.

With his current strength, even his weaker second avatar (due to the size of the treasure and divine body) is enough to suppress all unexpected situations encountered in the Myriad Worlds Universe. Therefore, his main body will naturally continue to explore the Primordial Star.

After all, there are countless opportunities on the original star. Even if you just casually get your hands on one or two ordinary treasures, it would be enough to provide countless resources for the development of the Myriad Worlds Universe Kingdom.

……

Centuries later, on the original star numbered 06437.

At this moment, in the sky above a vast grassland, a figure clad in purple-gold armor was relentlessly attacking a terrifying figure that was over ten kilometers long, covered in golden scales, with a head resembling a wolf's head but possessing a single horn, and whose scales were engraved with complex secret patterns.

These two figures were none other than Lu Qingshan, the Venerable of Myriad Realms of the human race, and the Crimson Gold Venerable of the Fear Golden Hou lineage of the demon race!
This Crimson Gold Venerable also possessed the strength of a cosmic overlord. Although he was weaker than Lu Qingshan, he was still able to withstand the attack for a period of time thanks to his massive divine body.

Previously, a supreme weapon was created here. By the time Lu Qingshan arrived, the fully created treasure had already been collected by the Crimson Gold Venerable.

Faced with this situation, Lu Qingshan was naturally extremely unwilling, so he immediately attacked the Crimson Gold Venerable.

When he was first attacked by Lu Qingshan, the Crimson Gold Venerable knew that he was no match for Lu Qingshan and had thought of escaping by taking his own top-level flying palace treasure. However, he did not expect that Lu Qingshan would have a palace treasure with the function of sealing.

Left with no other choice, the Crimson Gold Venerable had to fly out of his palace-type treasure and fight Lu Qingshan.

"Venerable One of the Myriad Realms, don't be so arrogant!"

The Crimson Gold Venerable, whose divine body was constantly being damaged by Lu Qingshan's attacks, couldn't help but roar, "My demon race's experts are already on their way, and you'll be the one who suffers then!"

"Hahaha!"

Lu Qingshan swung his sword again, then said coldly, "Crimson Gold Venerable, let's see if you can hold out until your demon race's experts arrive!"

"I'll say it again: hand over the treasure you just acquired, and I'll let you leave safely. Otherwise, once your divine body is further damaged, you won't have this opportunity again!"

"The Venerable One of All Realms!"

After hearing Lu Qingshan's words, the Crimson Gold Venerable roared again, "Don't push your luck too far!"

"Hahaha, so what if I bully you?"

Lu Qingshan roared angrily, and then charged towards the Crimson Gold Venerable with the Meteorite Mark in his hand.

As time passed, the divine power of the Crimson Gold Venerable was also constantly being depleted.

Ninety percent, eighty percent...

Facing Lu Qingshan, who maintained a perfect state, Venerable Crimson Gold was quite anxious.

Because he knew very well that as his divine body weakened, his strength would also decline, and the loss of divine power would continue to increase when he was attacked by Lu Qingshan.

However, he was extremely unwilling to give up the treasure he had just acquired.

After all, he had been adventuring on the Primordial Star for hundreds of years and had only managed to seize this one treasure. Moreover, he had already lost a great deal of divine power for it, so giving it up would be a huge loss.

"Why hasn't Venerable Songming arrived yet?" Venerable Chijin thought anxiously.

Long before he could escape using a top-tier flying palace-type treasure, the Crimson Gold Venerable had already sought help from other powerful figures in the demon race.

Venerable Songming is the most powerful cosmic overlord of the Demon Alliance on this primordial star. Although he is not a demon race expert, he is a member of a powerful race within the Demon Alliance and possesses many treasures for protection.

If the other party arrives in time, they will naturally be able to save him and escape unscathed.

A moment later, just as the Crimson Gold Venerable's divine body had lost thirty percent, a rather powerful domain descended.

"The Flowing Sands Sea of ​​Venerable Songming?"

Feeling the pressure of that powerful domain on his Black Wind Sea, Lu Qingshan instantly recognized the person who had come.

He had encountered Venerable Songming before when a top-tier treasure was created. After a brief exchange, Venerable Songming, who had not gained the upper hand, chose to retreat.

However, the opponent's Quicksand Sea Domain is very strong. Although both it and the Black Wind Sea Domain that Lu Qingshan borrowed from Venerable Zifeng are ordinary domain-type treasures, it is slightly superior in power.

At this moment, Venerable Chijin, who had already received news of Venerable Songming, also quickly fled in the direction of Venerable Songming.

"Damn Venerable Songming!" Lu Qingshan cursed inwardly!
If Venerable Songming hadn't arrived in time, Venerable Chijin might have been killed by him.

"Hahaha!"

Using the recoil from his previous encounter with Lu Qingshan, Venerable Crimson Gold transformed into a streak of light and flew swiftly toward Venerable Songming.

"Trying to escape?" Lu Qingshan snorted coldly and gave chase again.

In truth, Lu Qingshan knew very well that even with the Black Wind Sea Domain, he would not be able to kill the Crimson Gold Venerable once Venerable Songming arrived.

However, he still wanted to deplete the Crimson Gold Venerable's divine power as much as possible, so that it would take the other party more time to recover his divine power!

As for his own losses, firstly, because he belonged to the stronger side, the divine power he lost was much less than that of the Crimson Gold Venerable; secondly, the divine power he lost was insignificant to the Endless Divine Sea Avatar.

"Hahaha!"

After rushing into Venerable Songming's Flowing Sand Sea domain, Venerable Crimson Gold's divine body was less than 60% intact, but he was quite happy at this moment.

Although he lost a lot of divine power this time, he did obtain a supreme treasure after all.

The lost divine power can be slowly restored over time, but the treasures gained are real and tangible.

Thinking of this, Venerable Crimson Gold couldn't help but turn around and roar at Lu Qingshan, "Venerable of Myriad Realms, you can't do anything to me, so why are you chasing me?"

"The Crimson Gold Venerable!"

At this moment, Lu Qingshan had already withdrawn his Black Wind Sea Domain, and then said coldly, "I hope you will have such good luck next time we meet!"

"Humph!"

As the Crimson Gold Venerable flew toward the Songming Venerable, he sneered, "Venerable of Myriad Realms, you're only relying on your massive avatar. If you were to encounter a top-tier cosmic overlord of my demon race, let's see if you'd still dare to be so arrogant!"

"pure gold!"

After reuniting with Venerable Crimson Gold, Venerable Songming glanced at Lu Qingshan with considerable apprehension, then said to Venerable Crimson Gold beside him, "This Venerable of Myriad Realms is quite troublesome. Even if the two of us join forces, we'll probably suffer at his hands. Let's leave quickly!"

"Alright!" Venerable Crimson Gold nodded slightly, and then he and Venerable Songming transformed into two streaks of light and quickly departed.

"What a pity!"

Watching the departing figures of Venerable Chijin and Venerable Songming, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

If it were any other cosmic venerable one, he might have gone after them and killed them.

But Venerable Songming was different!
Although the opponent is not a top-tier cosmic overlord, his strength is in no way inferior to Lu Qingshan's, and he also has domain-type and palace-type treasures protecting him. With Lu Qingshan's current strength, he simply cannot do anything to the opponent.

"I never imagined that after acquiring a palace-type treasure that also has sealing functions, it would be so difficult to make any progress!"

Lu Qingshan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Among the powerful individuals who dared to compete with me for the supreme treasure, this Crimson Gold Venerable was already relatively weak, yet I still couldn't defeat him in the end!"

In the last few hundred years, Lu Qingshan's gains have not even come close to those in the first few decades after the Primal Star was first opened.

Although Lu Qingshan caught the alien races off guard when he used the palace-type treasure, he only managed to kill one cosmic overlord and five high-level cosmic venerables.

Even if you add in the spoils from the treasures you've gained in recent years on the original planet, it still doesn't amount to more than ten treasure points.

Of course, compared to the gains of other cosmic overlords, Lu Qingshan's ability to gain nearly ten treasure points in just a few hundred years is already an astonishing achievement.

Moreover, he doesn't need to spend time and resources to restore his divine power, which gives him an even greater advantage.

……

Just as Lu Qingshan forced back the Crimson Gold Venerable and the Songming Venerable, four Universe Lords had already gathered on the Primordial Star No. 00456.

It should be noted that all the universe masters in the entire primordial universe combined number less than a thousand, while there are a total of 10081 primordial stars.

Furthermore, some powerful cosmic lords would never venture onto the original planets, so on average, there would be no cosmic lord on every ten original planets.

Now, four cosmic rulers have gathered on a primordial star, naturally because a precious treasure has been born.

The treasure that has appeared this time is a top-tier armor. Although it is not as precious as top-tier treasures of the domain or soul type, it is still extremely valuable to ordinary universe lords. They would not hesitate to start a great war for it.

These four Universe Lords come from two different forces. The first to seize the newly discovered treasure is the 'Lord Blue Maple' of the top-tier Liulan Alliance. The other three Universe Lords are from the Demon Clan Alliance, one of the eight super powers.

When the three universe lords of the Demon Clan Alliance arrived at this primordial star, the top-tier treasure armor that had just been revealed to the world had already fallen into the hands of Lan Feng, the lord of the Liulan Alliance.

However, faced with such a precious treasure, the three universe lords of the demon race alliance were clearly unwilling to give it up, so they directly gathered together to besiege Lord Lanfeng.

At this moment, Lord Lanfeng had lost 10% of his divine power. Although another universe lord from the Liulan Alliance was on his way, Lord Lanfeng knew very well that even with the other party's help, it would be difficult for him to escape unscathed with the top-tier treasure armor he had just acquired.

Therefore, Lord Blue Maple ultimately had no choice but to hand over the top-tier treasure armor he had just acquired.

"Hahaha!"

After waving his hand to collect the supreme treasure handed over by Lord Lanfeng, one of the demon race's universe lords quickly laughed loudly: "Lanfeng, you think you can fight against our demon race alliance?"

"Humph!"

Lord Blue Maple didn't say anything more, but after letting out a cold snort, he flew directly into the distance.

"At least Lan Feng knows what's good for him!"

After Lan Feng left, the demon race universe lord who had put away his treasure said again, "If he continues to fight with the few of us, he might become the first universe lord to fall after the opening of the Primordial Star!"

"Black Lion!"

Another Universe Lord standing nearby quickly spoke up, "No matter what, Lord Lanfeng is a Universe Lord of the Liulan Alliance, and also a member of the Liulan Clan. We should still give him some face!"

"Yes!"

The last universe lord nodded and said, "The Liulan Star Lord of the Liulan Alliance is not someone to be trifled with. If we really kill the Blue Maple Lord, I'm afraid the Liulan Star Lord will go mad!"

"What are you afraid of?"

The Demon Race Universe Lord immediately said coldly, "That Liulan Alliance is nothing more than a top-tier power, far inferior to my Demon Race Alliance!"

"Moreover, that Lord Liulan Star is nothing to be afraid of! Not to mention my two Demon Ancestors, even if we summoned the Lord of Annihilation and the Lord of Blood Chisel, they could easily suppress that Lord Liulan Star?"

"That's true!"

After hearing the words of the Demon Race Universe Lord, the other two Universe Lords of the Demon Race Alliance nodded in agreement.

The reason they chose to lead their clan to join the Demon Clan Alliance was because the Demon Clan possessed two of the strongest beings in the universe, far surpassing even the other super powers in the original universe!
