Swallowing the Stars: 100x Return for Teaching Apprentices

Chapter 241 Rules Retreat, You Are the Strongest in the Universe!
The Silk Thread Map was, after all, just a map of the Peak Realm made of special materials. The Lord of Yuan'ao was powerful enough to tear apart and destroy even ordinary treasures, so a single Silk Thread Map would naturally be instantly split into dozens of pieces!

Dozens of fragments of the Silk Thread Diagram were impacted by the power of the Lord of the Cave, and immediately flew away in all directions.

Upon witnessing this scene, the various universe lords were initially enraged, and then immediately began to fight over the drifting fragments.

Although they are just fragments, they are still remnants of Xuan Yuan, so even the incomplete maps recorded in the fragments are probably extremely valuable!
For a powerful force, such a fragment of a map that records a safe route to one of the three forbidden zones of the Cosmic Sea is far more valuable than a single rare artifact!

"Damn Lord Gaki-Oku!"

Don't argue with me!

"this is mine!"

The Golden Horn Lord, the Demon Lord, and the other Universe Lords who were originally entangled with the Black Universe Founder immediately abandoned their current targets and flew towards the nearest fragment of the Pulling Silk Diagram.

"Get out of my way!"

Boom~~~
A chaotic battle broke out immediately!
"Boom~~~"

The endless ripples spread out in concentric circles, and the powerful impact immediately repelled the surrounding 'Endless Light Domain'. The Lord of the Nether Lotus of the Zerg immediately used the supreme domain treasure he carried!

"Humph."

The white-faced Lord of the Prison Clan roared, and instantly black waves spread outwards from him, the surging black seawater also spreading outwards in an instant, impacting the surrounding endless light domain and endless ripple area.

The nine cosmic lords present were all prepared for their journey to the Mysterious Realm of Yuan.

There are three people who possess supreme treasures of the highest level: the Lord of Golden Horn, the Lord of the Dark Lotus, and the Lord of the Demonic Eyes.

Previously, when dealing with the Lord of Yuan'ao, the Golden Horn Lord alone only needed to use a supreme treasure of the peak domain type, so everyone was quite united.

But now, in order to compete for this Silk Thread Diagram, how could they possibly unite? Naturally, everyone was fighting desperately. The strong and ambitious wanted to obtain one or even multiple pieces, and they wanted to get the large fragments of the Silk Thread Diagram. The loose alliance that was originally united in purpose turned into enemies in an instant!
Amidst this chaos, the only strongest being in the universe present, the 'Black Cosmic Founder,' let out a sudden low roar—

"You can fight over the Silk-Pulling Diagram, I don't want it, I only want that wondrous object!"

A complete diagram of the silk threads would naturally be extremely valuable to him.

However, now that the Pulling Silk Diagram has been torn into dozens of pieces by the Lord of the Cave, even if he tries his best to snatch them, he would be lucky to get eight or ten pieces, and they might not even be connected, making it impossible to form a clear route. As a result, the value of the Pulling Silk Diagram fragments to him has naturally been greatly reduced.

Instead of wasting time fighting, it's better to grab that rare item that can directly and significantly increase his strength!
Upon hearing his words, the other major powers' universe lords also breathed a sigh of relief.

"it is good."

"it is good."

“Founder of the Dark Universe, we will not contend with you.”

"The wonder is yours."

"The wondrous object is yours, the silk thread diagram is ours."

In terms of strength, the Black Universe Founder is absolutely superior to them. When they were united before, they could completely suppress one of the strongest beings in the universe. But once they are no longer united, if the Black Universe Founder were to erupt and decide to seize it, few of them would be able to stop him. Now that he has taken the initiative to give up, they are naturally happy to accept it.

"Master of the Strange Fate Pavilion, shall we fight over the fragment of the Thread-Pulling Diagram, or..."

On the human side, Luo Feng had already used the Wu-killing Wings to unleash the 'Golden Kingdom,' a hazy golden light enveloping an area with a radius of 1 light-year.

The entire spacetime within the golden light was instantly under control, its power far surpassing that of ordinary universe masters. However, when the endless golden light came into contact with the area surrounding the Black Universe Creator, it was uncontrollably distorted and silently repelled.

The strongest being in the universe has a far greater control over spacetime than the Lord of the Universe. Although the 'Golden Kingdom' is powerful, it is not strong enough to suppress the strongest being in the universe's control over spacetime.

As the Black Universe Founder rapidly approached, Qi Yuan's mind stirred—

boom!
Lightning, endless lightning, spread rapidly!
In the blink of an eye, an endless field of lightning radiating a hazy purple light squeezed out the entangled 'Endless Light Domain,' 'Endless Ripple Domain,' and 'Endless Black Water Domain,' forcefully occupying a large area of ​​the void.

From the very beginning of the battle, Qi Yuan was one of the main forces suppressing and sealing the Lord of Yuan'ao, and therefore he was also the closest to the Lord of Yuan'ao.

Therefore, when this endless lightning domain expanded, it broke through all obstacles and instantly enveloped the Lord of Yuan'ao and the Black Universe Creator who rushed in.

"Luo Feng, use your golden light domain to assist me, let's capture that Lord of Yuan'ao first!"

Qi Yuan gave a low shout.

"understand!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng immediately did as instructed.

hum!
The hazy golden light that enveloped the surrounding area for nearly a light-year rapidly merged with the endless field of lightning, and the power of the entire lightning field instantly surged!
This lightning domain is one of the five supreme treasures that Qi Yuan exchanged for the supreme treasure palace 'Soul Suppressing Tower' from the Giant Axe Founder in the last time - the supreme domain-type treasure 'Sea of ​​Lightning'!
At this moment, under the blessing of Luo Feng's 'Golden Kingdom', the power of the entire 'Sea of ​​Lightning' soared infinitely, almost reaching the level of a supreme treasure of the domain category!

"Chi chi chi~~~"

Endless lightning converged wildly towards the Lord of Yuan'ao and the Creator of the Black Universe, unleashing incredibly powerful binding force that continuously reduced the speed of the Creator of the Black Universe.

As for the Lord of Yuan'ao, he was already enduring the powerful suction force of the Qiyuan Tower, and now he was being constantly impacted by layers of lightning oceans, which made his speed pitifully slow.

"Lord of Kagaku, go inside obediently!"

Qi Yuan let out a low shout, and the power of controlling the Wonderful Fate Tower erupted once again!

boom!
On the first floor of the Qiyuan Tower, three layers of secret runes lit up rapidly, and the devouring power enveloping the Lord of Yuan'ao instantly multiplied!

The third layer of secret runes of the Qiyuan Tower erupted, and its power has truly reached the 'sixth rank' level!

However, Qi Yuan only used the 'seal' effect of the Qiyuan Tower, and the coverage area was only around the Lord of Yuan'ao. Therefore, other powerful figures, including the founder of the Black Universe, did not discover the uniqueness of the Qiyuan Tower.

As for the Lord of Yuan'ao, who was being absorbed and suppressed, he didn't think too much about it at the moment. After all, there had never been a case in the entire primordial universe where a Lord of the Universe controlled a supreme treasure. He simply assumed that what he was facing was a top-grade treasure of the palace-sealing type.

While manipulating the Qiyuan Tower to erupt, Qi Yuan completely ignored the approaching Black Universe Founder and rushed towards the struggling Lord of Yuan'ao!
One was absorbed and bound by the palace treasure and the domain treasure, while the other was able to receive the blessing of the entire treasure domain. The speed difference between the two was like heaven and earth.

In a short while, Qi Yuan's figure appeared before the Lord of Yuan'ao.

"Let me in!"

Qi Yuan didn't draw his sword, but instead struck out with his palm—

woohoo~~~
On his dark red armor, shadowy black lines rapidly converged towards his palms.

Boom~~~~
The surrounding spacetime completely collapsed and shattered, and a huge dark red palm flew out of the air. This palm was millions of kilometers in diameter, and at the same time, countless sinister shadows that looked like tentacles were writhing rapidly within the dark red palm.

An enormous hand descended from below, arriving before the Lord of Yuan'ao in an instant.

"Damn human, you think you can kill me?! Aaaaah!!! Burn me to ashes!!!"

The Lord of Yuanao's voice roared like thunder, and a huge vortex of fire appeared around the divine body. The dazzling vortex of fire shrank madly and gathered completely on the black sacred tree, which suddenly expanded rapidly.

boom!
Endless power gathered on this black divine tree, like a pillar reaching to the heavens. The black divine tree slammed down heavily, directly striking the giant hand that was coming from below!
"Boom boom boom~~~~"

The Lord of Yuan'ao's divine body trembled, the huge black divine tree in his hand was shaken high into the air, and his entire body was pushed back a great distance.

Even his divine body trembled violently, cracks appeared, and then quickly recovered.

At this moment, Qi Yuan was wearing the Blood Soul Divine Armor, a supreme treasure armor that he had received as a gift when Long Ji broke through to the Universe Venerable realm last time!
In addition to its inherent defensive capabilities, it can also draw upon the 'blood soul power' contained within the armor, thereby unleashing unparalleled power!
Qi Yuan's palm strike just now, purely in terms of power, definitely reached the top level of the fifth rank!

Lord Nayuan was forced back by the force of this palm strike, and was further engulfed by the endless terrifying power of the Qiyuan Tower and impacted by the lightning sea domain blessed by the Golden Kingdom. He could no longer hold on and his body staggered backward into the huge abyss passage below the Qiyuan Tower.

"Master of the Strange Fate Pavilion, I'm handing over this wondrous item to you. How about you let me go?" Lord of Yuan'ao roared in a low voice.

"Master of Qiyuan Pavilion, we cannot let him go, he must die!" The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds immediately warned from afar.

"Yes, kill him."

"Can't let him go!"

The other universe lords also quickly transmitted their messages.

Even though the consciousness of the Lords of the Universe is so powerful, as they are fighting with all their might for the fragment of the Puzzle Diagram, they still noticed the scene of Qi Yuan chasing after Lord Yuan Ao.

All of them naturally wanted the Lord of Yuan'ao to die. Once the Lord of Yuan'ao fell, all their major forces would have made a great contribution, and their clans and forces would receive the blessings of the primordial universe.

"Give me a rare object?"

However, upon hearing the words of the Lord of Yuan'ao and the other lords of the universe, Qi Yuan's lips curled into a mocking smile. "Yuan'ao, then hand over that strange object. Hand it over, and I guarantee you can leave!"

"Master of the Strange Fate Pavilion, you mustn't!" the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds transmitted his voice.

"No, humans, we can't let him go!" The Lords of the universe, including the Flame Emperor, the Lord of the Nether Lotus, and the Lord of the Demonic Eyes, all shouted loudly!

"Hahaha, human, you're lying to me!"

Before Qi Yuan could speak, the Lord of Yuan Ao burst into maniacal laughter, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You think I'll just hand over the treasure and let you do whatever you want with me? I'm not that stupid!"

Unrestrained laughter echoed through the starry sky.

"Then just go die!" Qi Yuan sneered, and his right hand swung out again, forming a giant hand that covered millions of kilometers of space once more!
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

Sensing the power of this palm strike, the Lord of Yuan'ao roared madly, "You want me dead? You want the supreme treasure? Then don't even think about it being so easy for any of you!"

"Blow it up!!"

Boom~~~~
The Lord of the Cave, a divine body of the universe millions of kilometers tall, contains terrifying divine power!
Such a massive divine body self-destructed in that instant. The power of the self-destruction even surpassed the strongest attack previously unleashed by the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, completely reaching the limit bound by the entire 'Primordial Universe'!
Endless energy waves surged in all directions in an instant, even the Qiyuan Tower, which had been enveloped by the shockwaves, was thrown away and tumbled repeatedly.

As for Qi Yuan, because he was closest to the Lord of Na Yuan Ao, although he was protected by the Supreme Treasure Armor and would not be injured, he could not stop himself from retreating.

"Yuan Ao blew himself up."

"Protect the silk thread diagram!"

"Protect the fragments of the silk thread diagram!"

"Be careful."

The nine cosmic lords, who were originally fighting and vying for power, were completely terrified by the self-destruction of the Lord of Yuan'ao.

The self-destruction of that cosmic lord's divine body, millions of kilometers high, caused endless energy to erupt in an instant, with an impact force a billion times greater than that of a supernova explosion...

Remove all obstacles!
bang bang bang! ! !
In the distance, some enormous, high-speed space debris instantly transformed into particle streams, and the surrounding space itself became a stream of spatial particles! Meanwhile, the cosmic lords of the nine major powers each exerted their utmost efforts, either using supreme treasures of the pinnacle domain or burning divine power to form massive barriers.

"Block!"

"We can't let that shockwave destroy the Thread Diagram." Even the creator of the Black Universe tried his best to manipulate space to suppress and resist the shockwave.

"Boom boom boom~~~"

The shockwave traveled a considerable distance before striking the combined defenses of the nine major powers' universe lords. Although the shockwave's power had weakened considerably, it still put immense pressure on the many universe lords of the nine powers, as they not only had to protect their divine bodies but also the distant fragments of the Thread Diagram.

Even through a layer of defense, the vibrations transmitted through the defenses still shattered the space into countless particles.

Fragments of the silk thread pattern drifted within, and the vibration caused them to fly erratically in all directions.

More than just a string pattern!

The power of the explosion by the Lord of Yuan'ao was so great that even the world ring he carried was shattered. Some ordinary materials and items were directly annihilated into nothingness, while some precious treasures survived the explosion and were thrown around by the huge shock force.

Shield!

Hammer!

Holy Grail!

Gray armor!

……

One by one, the treasures scattered in the void and flew in all directions.

The enormous black divine tree that was originally in the embrace of the Lord of Yuan'ao was naturally also impacted and sent flying into the distance.

And the direction in which it drifted away was, coincidentally, the direction in which the creator of the Black Universe was located.

The Black Universe Founder was initially entangled with the Golden Horn Lord and the Demon Lord, and later suppressed by the Thunder Sea and Golden Kingdom controlled by Qi Yuan and Luo Feng. Therefore, he was far from the Lord of Yuan'ao. Originally, seeing that the Lord of Yuan'ao was about to be swallowed up by Qi Yuan's palace treasure, he no longer had much hope of obtaining that wonder.

However, unexpectedly, the situation changed drastically in a short moment. The Lord of Yuan'ao actually self-destructed, and the black divine tree was affected by the shock wave of the Lord of Yuan'ao's explosion and flew towards him on its own!

"Haha, what a coincidence! It seems this wondrous object is destined for me. You humans have wasted your efforts!"

The Black Universe Founder laughed heartily, enduring the dual suppression of the sea of ​​lightning and the golden kingdom, and rushed towards the black divine tree that was flying towards him.

As the strongest being in the universe, even when suppressed in this primordial universe, his speed far surpasses that of all the universe lords!

"The wonder is mine!"

Golden flames shone brightly in the eyes of the Black Universe Founder!

However, at that moment, Qi Yuan, who had regained his balance amidst the explosion, also turned his gaze over.

"This founder of the Black Universe is really lucky; he managed to find an opportunity even with this. It seems we can't keep a low profile any longer."

Qi Yuan stared at the Black Universe Founder, which was constantly approaching the black divine tree, and his entire will trembled slightly.

Boom!

Suddenly——

Around Qi Yuan, the rules of the universe rapidly retreated, and the vast void around him seemed to be instantly drawn into a kind of 'vacuum state,' with nothing able to hinder his speed!

Qi Yuan stepped into this 'vacuum', and his speed began to soar dramatically. Ten times the speed of light. A hundred times the speed of light. A thousand times the speed of light. Ten thousand times the speed of light.
Almost instantly, his speed reached an extreme!

It was as if he had traveled through countless times and spaces, and when he reappeared, his figure was already standing in front of the black divine tree.

"Black Universe, the wonder is mine." Qi Yuan smiled faintly at the founder of Black Universe, but his hand quickly reached out to grab the black divine tree.

Not far away, the Black Cosmic Founder, witnessing this scene, immediately narrowed his eyes—

"The rules of operation have been forced to retreat! You... you've broken through to become the strongest being in the universe!!"
