Zhutian: Start from Devouring the Stars and Becoming a God

Chapter 426 Twists and Turns
On the primordial planet, number 04993, in the original universe.

On this small primordial star, dozens of cosmic lords have already gathered.

Aside from some universe lords who came to compete for the treasures of the True Spirit Palace, most of them were universe lords from the human and demon races.

Because of the suppression of the Lord of Sirius by Lu Qingshan in the True Spirit Palace, the human race and the demon race are about to engage in a great war on this primordial star.

The demon race's purpose was naturally to kill or suppress Lu Qingshan, thereby rescuing the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf and upholding the dignity of the demon race;
The human race, on the other hand, was there to support Lu Qingshan, so that the suppressed Lord of Sirius could be successfully brought back to the core territory of the human race.

However, there are significantly more universe lords appearing from the demon race than from the human race, so the human race is definitely at a slight disadvantage in terms of overall strength.

However, the human race's task is simply to provide support for Lu Qingshan. Although they will be fewer in number, the unique environment of the Primal Star will actually increase their chances of success.

"The demon race is really going all out this time!"

Seeing the several demon race universe lords rapidly pursuing him in his direction, Lu Qingshan showed no sign of anxiety.

After all, most of the universe lords of the demon race had already been stopped by the universe lords of the human race. He only needed to deal with the few universe lords who were relatively close to him.

"Lord of Gold, Lord of Changjiu!"

Lu Qingshan focused his attention mainly on the two Demon Ancestor Universe Lords, while he didn't need to pay too much attention to the other Universe Lord who was further away from him.

"The Lord of Changjiu is quite powerful. With the Blood Chisel Lord's Floating Pagoda Sea Domain, they still have a chance to stop me!"

As Lu Qingshan made his way towards the vortex passage leading to Primordial Star No. 08654, he secretly planned, "However, the Lord of Changjiu is quite far away from me, and may not be able to stop me before I reach the vortex passage!"

"On the contrary, the weaker Lord of Terror Gold is closer to me. Once I get entangled with that Lord of Terror Gold, the Lord of Changjiu might be able to arrive quickly!"

"So what I need to do most now is to step into the vortex passage leading to the original star number 08654 before the Lord of Changjiu arrives. Then it will be much easier to return to the territory of my clan!"

With that in mind, Lu Qingshan quickly continued to use his movement technique to fly swiftly towards the vortex passage leading to the original star numbered 08654.

Although his speed is currently restricted by the Bloodstained Lord's Floating Pagoda Sea Domain, he possesses the top-tier treasure boots 'Sky-Splitting Cloud-Stepping Boots,' which still provide a certain boost to his movement even under the restrictions of the Floating Pagoda Sea Domain.

call out!
Lu Qingshan used his movement technique to break through the layers of bloody light that enveloped him, and quickly flew towards the nearest vortex passage.

"Lord of all realms, you cannot escape!"

Upon seeing Lu Qingshan's speed continuously increase, the Lord of Changjiu, who was relatively far away from him, immediately roared in anger.

"Humph!"

Lu Qingshan paid no attention to the roar of the Lord of Changjiu.

Although the Lord of Changjiu possesses extremely strong power, he is currently only at the peak of the fourth tier, and is not as terrifying as he was in the original work.

If he had encountered the Lord of Changjiu alone, there would have been no need for him to retreat voluntarily.

However, the demon race currently has the overall advantage in strength. If they are besieged, they might have methods that could threaten him. Therefore, Lu Qingshan definitely needs to leave as soon as possible.

And so, time continued to pass.

A little over a minute later, even with the suppression of the Floating Pagoda Sea, Lu Qingshan had already flown nearly 20 million kilometers.

At that moment, the Demon Lord of Terror Gold had arrived at a distance of less than a million kilometers from Lu Qingshan.

In fact, Lu Qingshan had already discovered the traces of the Lord of Fear of Gold, so it was naturally very easy for him to avoid him in advance.

However, if he changes his route to avoid the Lord of Terror and Gold, it will be even more difficult for him to enter the vortex passage to the original star 08654 before the other universe lords of the demon race catch up with him.

Once they are surrounded by other universe lords of the demon race, they will surely be caught in a fierce battle.

Therefore, for Lu Qingshan, proceeding directly along the original route and quickly breaking through the enemy's obstruction when encountering the Lord of Fear of Gold was undoubtedly the best option.

"Lord of all realms, you cannot escape!"

The Lord of Terror roared, and a dazzling golden light shot out from the sharp horn on his head.

Knowing that there was a gap between his current strength and that of Lu Qingshan, the Lord of Fear of Gold immediately unleashed his strongest techniques.

Although the horn on his head had not reached the level of a peak treasure, it was already considered a top-grade treasure weapon. Combined with his life gene level, which had been raised to four thousand times that of ordinary life in the universe, the power of this dazzling sword light was extremely terrifying.

At this moment, the Lord of Fear of Gold did not seek to harm Lu Qingshan, but only hoped to continue to slow down Lu Qingshan's speed so that he could wait for the arrival of other powerful members of the demon race.

"Get out of my way!"

Seeing the Lord of Terror attacking him with his ultimate move not far away, Lu Qingshan roared and immediately unleashed the strongest secret technique of the Lord of the Universe, the Purple Thunder Profound Heaven Slash, which he had just created not long ago!
Wow!

With a gentle flick of his Purple Thunder Demon-Slaying Sword, Lu Qingshan unleashed a dazzling beam of sword light that shot towards the location of the Lord of Terror.

And within this dazzling sword light, there were even wisps of chaotic energy.

Rumble!
The dazzling sword light collided with the golden light thrust out by the Lord of Terror Gold, instantly annihilating it completely. Then, carrying its remaining power, it slammed into the Lord of Terror Gold's divine body.

call!
Under the impact of this terrifying force, the divine body of the Lord of Terror was directly forced back, retreating for hundreds of thousands of kilometers before stabilizing itself.

"This……"

Upon sensing the loss of his divine power, the Lord of Terror couldn't help but show a look of shock: "My divine body has actually lost one-thousandth of its power?"

In fact, the divine bodies of the Lord of Fear and the Lord of Sirius are almost identical in size and genetic level.

The reason he lost more divine power after enduring Lu Qingshan's attack was entirely because he was wearing a top-tier treasure armor.

Lu Qingshan's previous attack had already reached the limit that the top-tier treasure armor could withstand, causing the top-tier treasure armor, which could originally reduce the attack power to one ten-thousandth, to only one-thousandth of its original power.

Although a loss of one-thousandth of one's divine body may seem small, it was caused by Lu Qingshan's casual strike, and it was an attack that he had blocked with his ultimate move.

This means that if he were to encounter Lu Qingshan alone, Lu Qingshan would only need to make several hundred consecutive attacks to completely annihilate his divine body.

With sufficient divine power, Lu Qingshan could unleash hundreds of attacks in just a few minutes at most.

Of course, Lu Qingshan had no time to kill or even pay attention to the Lord of Fear of Gold.

So after defeating the Lord of Terror with a single blow, Lu Qingshan once again used his movement technique to quickly fly towards the vortex passage leading to the original star number 08654.

Attacking the Lord of Fear of Gold did slow him down, but the Lord of Fear of Gold was far weaker than him, so the effect was not very noticeable.

If things continue like this, even with the obstruction of the Lord of Fear of Gold, Lu Qingshan will have enough time to reach the vortex passage leading to the original star numbered 08654 before the other universe lords of the demon race arrive.

The demon race, the rulers of the universe, naturally discovered this problem as well.

"not good!"

"That Lord of All Realms is incredibly fast and powerful; I'm afraid Jin won't be able to stop him at all!"

"After seeing that Lu Qingshan's speed was not greatly affected, the universe lords of the demon race all became somewhat anxious."

"Fear of gold!"

At this moment, the Lord of Changjiu, who was already quite close to Lu Qingshan, transmitted his voice to the Lord of Kongjin, saying, "We must stop that damned Lord of Myriad Realms! If he gets away, what will become of our demon race's reputation?"

"I've done everything I could!"

Having regained his footing, the Lord of Terror roared once more and charged toward Lu Qingshan's location, replying telepathically, "However, the Lord of Myriad Realms is too powerful. With my strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stop him!"

Of course, despite saying that, the Lord of Terror quickly caught up with Lu Qingshan with the help of the Floating Pagoda Sea, and then once again unleashed his strongest technique on Lu Qingshan.

boom! boom! boom!
Lu Qingshan and the Lord of Terror repeatedly clashed, with the Lord of Terror being blasted back time and again, its divine body constantly being depleted. Meanwhile, Lu Qingshan was also steadily making his way towards the vortex passage leading to Primal Star No. 08654, the distance between them steadily decreasing.

However, the entanglement of the Lord of Terror did affect his speed to some extent, so during this process, the distance between him and the Lord of the Demon Clan, Changjiu, began to get closer and closer.

Of course, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Lu Qingshan should still be able to enter the vortex passage leading to the original star number 08654 before the Lord of Changjiu catches up with him.

But just when Lu Qingshan was less than 30 million kilometers away from the vortex passage...

hum!
Lu Qingshan felt a surge of ethereal divine power instantly penetrate his mind, attempting to attack his soul.

Fortunately, the power of this soul attack was not too strong, and Lu Qingshan himself had a strong will and the 'Floating Pagoda Heart Lamp', a top-grade soul treasure, protected his soul, so he was not greatly affected.

But just as Lu Qingshan was freeing himself from the effects of this soul attack...

Wow!

A dazzling white light instantly traversed countless layers of space, shooting directly towards Lu Qingshan's location.

The power contained in this white light was extremely strong, far surpassing the golden light previously unleashed by the Lord of Terror.

So when he saw the white light coming, Lu Qingshan immediately swung his Purple Thunder Demon-Slaying Sword to block it.

Rumble!
The golden and white light directly struck the dazzling sword light that Lu Qingshan had just unleashed. The power of both sides annihilated and consumed each other, resulting in a draw for a moment before they were completely annihilated.

After being attacked by this white light, Lu Qingshan's speed was naturally greatly affected.

"Lord of the Seastorm, you're courting death!"

As Lu Qingshan continued to accelerate towards the vortex passage leading to the original star numbered 08654, he looked towards the owner of the white light.

The other person was slender and graceful, dressed in a blue gauze robe, exuding a strong sense of allure. She was none other than the insectoid powerhouse, Lord Hailan, who had also entered the True Spirit Palace.

"hehe!"

At this moment, the Lord of the Sea was smiling as he looked in the direction of Lu Qingshan, and then said with a smile, "Lord of All Realms, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Why don't you wait a little longer!"

Lord Hailan's gains in the True Spirit Palace this time were not great. Apart from obtaining a flame of the True Spirit Heart Lamp, he only obtained resources worth a little over a hundred Treasure Points.

After leaving the True Spirit Palace, Lord Hailan happened to appear near the vortex passage leading to Primal Star No. 08654.

She originally planned to leave this primordial star directly, but she happened to witness the battle between the human race and the demon race, all the cosmic lords, so she stayed to watch the spectacle.

For a powerful insectoid being like Lord Hailan, watching the powerful humans and demons fight each other, especially on this scale, is definitely a good thing.

If Lu Qingshan had fled directly, this fight might have ended just like that.

However, if Lu Qingshan is caught up by other powerful members of the demon race, then a great battle will be inevitable.

Whether the human race or the demon race wins, it will be a good thing for the insectoid race.

Therefore, upon seeing that Lu Qingshan was about to flee and having also received a telepathic message from the Lord of the Demon Clan, Lord Hailan quickly decided to take action against Lu Qingshan.

As for Lu Qingshan's animosity towards the human race, it had no effect on her at all, given that she possessed a supreme palace-level treasure for protection.

In fact, because the Zerg universe overlords are relatively few in number, they are extremely adept at survival.

Just like the human race, every newly ascended Universe Lord receives a resource equivalent to a top-tier treasure weapon.

However, each Zerg Queen, upon breaking through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, is immediately able to obtain a top-grade treasure similar to the Sirius Palace, a high-level palace-type treasure.

After breaking through to the level of the Lord of the Universe, the Zerg Queen can not only enhance her strength in terms of protective treasures, life gene levels, and combat techniques, but she can also enhance her strength by continuing to breed Zerg warriors.

A Zerg Queen at the level of a Universe Lord, while not as invincible as a Zerg Queen at the level of a World Lord or an Immortal, is definitely one of the most troublesome opponents among those at the same level.

As for Lord Hailan, who possesses a supreme palace-level treasure for protection, she has little fear of Lu Qingshan, let alone the giant axe founder of the human race or the two demon ancestors of the demon race.

On the other hand, after seeing Lord Hailan blocking Lu Qingshan from leaving, the human and demon races reacted differently.

"Damn Lord Hailan!"

Upon seeing Lord Hailan stop Lu Qingshan, Lord Huangjian, who had been blocking the second avatar of Lord Miejin from afar, immediately roared, "How dare you block a strongman of my human race?"

The Lord of Huangjian had suffered a loss at the hands of the Lord of Hailan back then, so he was naturally extremely angry to see Lu Qingshan being stopped by the Lord of Hailan this time.

"Hahaha!"

Upon hearing the roar of the Lord of Desolate Mirror, the Lord of Annihilation, who already held an absolute advantage in the battle, immediately laughed loudly: "Lord of Desolate Mirror, you'd better take care of yourself!"

"Moreover, Lord Hailan is protected by a supreme palace-type treasure. What are you human races compared to her?"

The Lord of Changjiu stopped transmitting his voice and instead laughed loudly, "Hahaha! Lord of Hailan, thank you for helping me stop this Lord of Myriad Realms. My demon race will suppress him later and reward you handsomely!"

He said these words not to thank Lord Hailan, but to bind Lord Hailan to his own cause and make him continue to help the demon race fight against the Lord of Myriad Realms.

As he said this, the distance between the Lord of Changjiu and Lu Qingshan continued to shrink.

"Ha ha……"

Seeing that Lord Changjiu had been able to stop Lu Qingshan, Lord Hailan immediately smiled and withdrew from the battlefield, then continued softly, "Lord Changjiu, with so many of you, you probably don't need my help!"

"Damn Lord Hailan!"

Seeing that Lord Hailan had left the battlefield and was no longer blocking Lu Qingshan, Lord Changjiu cursed inwardly.

In fact, he knew very well that the Lord of Hailan had not stopped Lu Qingshan to help their demon race, but to make them continue fighting against the human race, hoping that both sides would be severely injured.

However, Lu Qingshan, the Lord of All Realms, is their biggest enemy and target now, so the Lord of Changjiu won't care too much about this matter.

Wow!

With a thought, the Lord of Changjiu suddenly conjured up streaks of purple flames in the surrounding void, instantly repelling the endless blood-red light that permeated around Lu Qingshan.

"Another supreme treasure of the pinnacle realm?"

Seeing the endless blood-red light that had been binding him being repelled, Lu Qingshan showed no sign of relief.

Because the binding force of this newly appeared purple flame was no less than that of the endless blood light before, it was obviously also a top-level domain treasure, and a top-level domain treasure that had no information about it.

"Lord of All Realms!"

The Lord of Changjiu looked at Lu Qingshan, who was less than a million kilometers away, and then said coldly, "This is the first time I've used this Purple Fire Domain since I obtained it!"

"Hand over the suppressed Sirius, and I can let you leave safely!"

"Lord of Changjiu!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingshan immediately sneered, "You think you can make me release the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf? You're truly boastful!"

Although he felt a great binding force in the endless purple flames, it only consumed more divine power and affected his speed, which was nothing to him.

"court death!"

The Lord of Changjiu's icy gaze swept over Lu Qingshan, and then, with a thought, a silver-white battle blade appeared in his hand.

call!
The silver-white battle blade suddenly swelled, instantly reaching a length of over a million kilometers, and then, as if it were about to cleave the heavens and earth, it slashed rapidly towards Lu Qingshan.
