Devouring the Stars: Blood Sea Demon Lord

Chapter 228 Thousand Vines

"hehe!"

After figuring out the intentions of the human race's higher-ups, Minghai chuckled softly.

100 trillion in military achievements!

As long as he creates his own top-tier secret technique and his understanding of the laws reaches the peak level of a King, he can use the two supreme treasures bestowed by the Lord of Ice Peak: the 'Shadow-Hiding Battle Armor' and the 'Divine Speed ​​Boots'. He can kill not only beginner Kings, but even peak Kings!

Completing the military merit quota set by the Virtual Universe Company is effortless!

Of course, that's all for the future.

Right now, let's think more about how to break through the 'unordinary' level, create a 'common' level secret technique, and raise our combat power to the level of a beginner king!

……

Shallow waters, fragmented star clusters.

This region is composed of billions of continental fragments of varying sizes, densely packed and with limited space. It would be difficult to even maintain sub-light speed, let alone accelerate a spaceship to the speed of light for interstellar travel.

In the void between countless continental fragments, a giant bird, eighteen kilometers long and with a wingspan of over twenty kilometers, is flying at one-tenth the speed of light.

The giant bird exuded the powerful aura of a peak military lord at the immortal level. Apart from its sharp, hard beak, which was hundreds of meters long at the front of its head, and a pair of sharp claws under its belly, its entire body was covered with ferocious blue battle armor.

With a pair of deep, cunning green eyes, the giant bird flapped its wings and flew slowly through the void.

brush!
As it passed a fragment of a continent with a diameter of hundreds of thousands of kilometers, the void ahead rippled, and then, with a whoosh, seven or eight powerful figures appeared around the giant bird, surrounding it completely.

"Ok?"

The giant bird hovered in the void, looking at the suddenly appearing powerful figure. Its green eyes revealed contempt and smugness, showing no sign of tension from being surrounded by enemies. Instead, it had the feeling of a hunter who had succeeded.

"Is it an immortal from the 'Azure Roc' clan of the demon race?"

Blocking the giant bird's path, he exuded the powerful aura of a peak military lord, his body as solid as rock. Holding a massive axe brimming with bloodlust, he stared at the giant bird and laughed loudly:

"You four top races are truly arrogant. Do you think a mere peak military lord can venture alone in a place like the Shallow Water Starfield? Do you think you are a powerful figure like a Marquis or an Immortal?"

"The Mechanical Race faction? The Rock Race?"

Surrounded on all sides by powerful members of the Mechanical Race, the immortal giant bird of the Azure Roc clan of the demon race calmly looked around, then cackled at the enemy leader:
"One peak military lord, one high-level military lord, one low-level military lord, and five world lords with considerable strength—this trip has yielded a decent harvest!"

"How arrogant this demon race is!"

The leader of the Kuiyan Clan, an immortal chieftain, roared angrily:
"Your 'Azure Roc' clan has only ordinary bloodlines, and you're not royalty among the demon race, so what gives you the right to be arrogant? Brothers, let's attack!"

'boom'

Having said that, he mustered his divine power, used his movement technique, transformed into a bolt of lightning, and swung his great axe at the immortal of the 'Azure Roc' demon race.

The Kuiyan Clan excels in close combat. As a fellow peak military lord and immortal, he is not afraid of enemies from the peak race of the demon race.

brush!
Hundreds of sharp swords, unleashed by another mentalist in the group, were linked together in a ring, enveloping the giant bird.

The last immortal's eyes were ethereal, its divine power fading into a soul spear, which it shot towards the giant bird.

The other five realm lords in the group also used various methods, including poison, soul attacks, and long-range attacks from mental cultivators, as their attacks roared and swept towards the giant bird.

The three immortals—one a martial artist skilled in close combat, one a mentalist skilled in long-range attacks, and one an illusionist skilled in soul attacks—along with the five realm lords each possessing their own sharp methods, form a formidable team that is among the most powerful in the entire Shallow Water Starfield.

Any lone army leader who is immortal would be terrified when faced with their siege, and would immediately burn their divine power to break through without thinking.

However, just as this elite squad of the machine race launched their attack, the void, spanning millions of miles, suddenly erupted in chaos. Rumble...
A terrifying plant, 100,000 kilometers tall, covered with dense, green vines, each vine radiating a powerful aura of immortal divine energy, suddenly appeared, towering majestically in the void.

Brush brush!
Countless green vines of varying thicknesses but tens of thousands of kilometers in length flew through the air, instantly sealing off the void and trapping eight powerful members of the mechanical race.

"what?"

"Ah, I'm entangled by this thing! It's draining my life energy! Captain, save me!"

……

Shocked exclamations and terrified screams came from the elite squad members of the mechanical race who were attacking the giant bird.

"This is a thousand-vine plant, a peak-level military lord-level thousand-vine plant! Retreat, retreat quickly!"

Captain Kuiyan, a peak military commander of the Kuiyan Clan, was knowledgeable and experienced. He recognized the terrifying green vine that had suddenly appeared and immediately shouted loudly.

As he shouted, he quickly began to burn his divine power. With a 'boom,' golden flames blazed fiercely, and his aura instantly surged a thousandfold.

However, the immortal 'Kuiyan Clan' whose strength increased a thousandfold by burning divine power did not attack the giant bird, nor did he show any intention of rescuing his teammates. Instead, he quickly changed direction and rushed towards the outer perimeter.

Plant life is usually huge, with strong vitality, good at trapping and killing enemies, and can fight against enemies of different levels. Thousand-plant vines are the best among them.

A single thousand-vine plant at the peak of the military lord level, when fully unleashed, can even trap a Marquis-level immortal!

The 'Kuiyan Clan' expert was merely a peak military lord immortal. When he was trapped and killed by a thousand vines of the same level, he was too busy protecting himself to rescue his teammates.

‘Swish swish’

Green vines danced in the air, flashing like lightning, and the five realm lords died instantly.

Then came the immortal who used a soul-binding technique to attack the giant bird of the 'Azure Roc' clan. Immediately afterward, the immortal mentalist was also entangled, his life force was rapidly drained by the azure vines, and he perished on the spot.

Only the captain of the 'Kuiyan Clan', who immediately burned his divine power upon seeing the situation was dire, swung his great axe and cut off more than a dozen long blue vines that were wrapping around him, still struggling desperately.

But faced with the endless onslaught of terrifying blue vines, its demise was only a matter of time; it was merely making its final struggle.

As for the dozen or so green vines that were cut off, they have long since recovered completely.

The bodies of immortal gods are composed of immortal divine power. As long as they are not completely destroyed, they can reassemble themselves at any time, and can be gathered and dispersed at will.

The same applies to the thousand-vine plant; no matter how many vines break, they can be easily reconnected.

Whoosh whoosh!
Just as this 'Kuiyan Clan' was in despair, the countless green vines that had surrounded him like a tidal wave suddenly disappeared.

The giant bird of the Qingpeng clan, whom he had previously regarded as a fool for venturing alone in the Shallow Water Starfield, appeared before him, its green eyes looking at him with mockery.

"As expected of the 'Kuiyan Clan,' who excels in close combat, they actually severed thirteen of my precious vines after burning their divine power!"

The giant bird of the Azure Roc clan spread its wings, its wingspan exceeding twenty kilometers, covered by a ferocious azure battle armor, blotting out the sky and the sun. Looking at the immortal of the Kuiyan clan, it laughed:

"Come on, I won't use the Thousand Vine to bully you, let's have a fair one-on-one fight!"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, the immortal of the 'Kuiyan Clan' who had almost died was overjoyed. His eyes darted around, and he thought to himself:
"This 'Azure Roc' demon is really arrogant, and it's good that it's arrogant!"

If the 'Azure Roc' demon clan continues to surround and kill it with the Thousand Vines, even if it burns its divine power, it will not be able to escape at all.

But it actually put away its thousand vines and challenged me to a one-on-one duel. We were both peak military lords and immortals, and I had even burned my divine power. Who was afraid of whom?
