Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 215 It's time to pull off another big heist!

In Lu Jin's eyes, the cosmic venerables below the overlord level are nothing.

However, in the eyes of the demon race inheritors at the immortal stage, Venerable Lan Cang was definitely a big shot.

Right now, Venerable Lan Cang is furious enough, which is a good opportunity to win his favor. Immediately, many demon clan inheritors jumped out to denounce the Time Dragon clone.

"You lowly ant, are you tired of living? How dare you provoke Venerable Lan Cang of my demon race?"

"King of Time, my demon race's Venerable One is not someone a mere Realm Lord can provoke."

"You filthy worm, why don't you kneel down and beg for mercy at once?"

At this moment, angry shouts from the inheritors of the demon race rose and fell across Glory Square.

"Ah~"

With a sigh, Lu Jin looked around at the demons and said, shaking his head, "A bunch of ignorant beasts. Little do they know that when you disrespect Lord Dragon, your future demise is already a foregone conclusion."

After a pause, Lu Jin said arrogantly, "Of course, Lord Dragon is a magnanimous dragon. As long as you kneel down and shout 'Lord Dragon, I was wrong' three times, Lord Dragon won't bother to argue with you beasts."

Having suspended the "demon-catching operation" for quite some time, shouldn't it be restarted?

After his original self was assassinated by the demon race, Lu Jin ordered his immortal servants to go to the demon race's territory to capture demons.

At first, things were fine, but after capturing too many, the demon race realized something was wrong and sent many experts to stake out the area, causing Lu Jin to lose many of his immortal servants.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Court has the Immortal Transformation Pool, and since the soul servants cannot be enslaved a second time, there was not much loss, only some F-grade immortal divine weapons and a little bit of divine source liquid.

The probability of further losses was not low, and given that the number of demons in the Mountain and Sea Heaven had already exceeded trillions, and that they had probably already emptied the demon population of several star fields, Lu Jin stopped his demon-catching operation.

But it seems that the demon-catching operation still needs to continue.

Anyway, the Shanhaitian region is very large, a super landmass with a diameter of 129600 light-years. Even if all the demon races in the entire universe were squeezed inside, it wouldn't be crowded.

At this moment, the black book in front of him trembled slightly. Seeing that a successor had accepted the challenge, Lu Jin said, "A dog that bites a dragon doesn't bark. Just barking is useless. I, the Dragon Lord, only seek defeat. If you have the guts, then accept the challenge."

Alright, Lord Dragon still has battles to fight, so I won't waste my breath on you lowly beasts.

After saying that, Lu Jin's figure disappeared from the square.

Battle world.

Above an endless desert, the figure of the Time Dragon's clone appeared.

With a thought, Lu Jin activated the 'Light God Transformation' secret technique. As platinum light shone, the Time Dragon clone transformed into a six-meter-tall dragon-man, simultaneously manifesting the Myriad Transformations Dawn Light three-piece set.

Of course, in the battle world, inheritors at the third level and below are restricted from using treasures of the highest rank or above. This Myriad Transformations Dawn set is just a G-grade replica.

At that moment, the opponent's figure also appeared in the distant sky.

The opponent in the first battle was quite burly, looking like a rock giant over ninety meters tall, with four arms, wearing a set of tan armor, and carrying four large axes over eighty meters long.

"Diyao tribe, barbarians."

"The rock giant said in a deep voice."

"Special life, time."

Seeing that the other party was quite polite in introducing himself, Lu Jin said the same thing.

"war!"

The rock giant roared, his divine power ignited, and his aura surged. Wielding his great axe, he transformed into a streak of light and charged forward.

Lu Jin also burned his peak divine body from the Battle World. With a flap of his six wings, he activated the Wings of Dawn Secret Technique and transformed into a platinum arc of light, swiftly streaking across the sky.

"puff!"

Two figures passed each other. Relying on his absolute speed advantage, Lu Jin dodged the giant axe that the rock giant was about to strike down, and the three pairs of Radiant Wings on his back, which were like blades, slashed out in an interlocking pattern.

In an instant, a terrifying sharpness erupted, and the rock giant's enormous divine body was directly cleaved into pieces by the wings of the Dawn God.

"Shh!"

The next moment, the rock giant god reassembled, his rock-like face filled with disbelief.

Before he could even cry out in alarm, the platinum light struck again, accompanied by a terrifying burst of platinum sharpness, and the rock giant was once again cleaved into pieces.

"boom--"

A few minutes later, a sharp platinum claw beam shot out, and the rock giant's divine body was finally completely annihilated by Lu Jin.

"A bit tough to kill~"

Seeing the extra Glory Point on the black book, Lu Jin couldn't help but complain.

In the battle world, regardless of whether it is a battle between the first level inheritor or the third level inheritor, the divine bodies of both sides are all at the peak of the King-level.

For an inheritor whose comprehension of the laws of fusion is only at the first level, a divine body at the peak of the King level is clearly far beyond the limit.

With a strong divine body and a large health bar, the time required to kill a monster naturally increases significantly.

The battle is over. The rock giant, the loser, has been kicked out of the battle world, and the figure of the second challenger appears in the distant desert sky.

On the other side, in the Great Luo Heaven, at the Lingxiao Palace.

The Blood God Child, in his incarnation, sat upon the nine-colored throne and summoned the Golden Scoundrel King, the manager of the alien servants.

To be honest, these foreign servants were quite disappointing.

After becoming his soul servants, there are quite a few king-level demon servants who failed to comprehend the three profound mysteries but managed to grasp the higher-level mysteries.

However, so far, there are zero individuals who have been able to integrate the three superior mysteries and transform them into complete superior laws.

It can only be said that the difficulty of becoming an Immortal and then a Cosmic Venerable is truly immense.

Even if the fundamental laws manifest within the Great Luo Heaven, and the cultivation environment far surpasses that of the outside world, it still cannot provide significant assistance.

"Owner."

Transforming into human form and clad in golden armor, the Golden Scoundrel King bowed respectfully.

Lu Jin instructed, "Call all your subordinates over here."

It's time to pull off another big heist!

"Yes, Master."

King Jinjiao bowed and withdrew from the Lingxiao Palace.

Before long, more than 12,000 figures with extraordinary auras appeared in the Lingxiao Palace.

With a wave of his hand, Lu Jin unleashed a surge of world power, and a metal tablet, inscribed with the first three levels of the soul enslavement technique "Ten Thousand Hearts Controlling Soul," materialized and landed before King Jin Jiao. Lu Jin glanced at the assembled servants and said, "Next, you will complete a plan called 'Demon Capture.' Jin Jiao, you will be the commander-in-chief of this plan."

This metal tablet records a secret technique for enslaving souls. Once mastered, it grants 100 soul enslavement slots. Those who haven't learned the enslavement technique should seek out the Golden Sly King to replicate it.

I have opened the Western Heavenly Gate in a remote part of the demon realm. You should leave all your valuable treasures in the Heavenly Court and then leave the Heavenly Realm through the Western Heavenly Gate.

I want you to gather 1000 vacant soul enslavement slots in the shortest possible time.

These 1000 vacant slave positions can be your own, your servants', or even your servants' servants'. Just make sure you have at least 1000.

Once you have gathered 1000 vacant slave slots, the demon-hunting plan will enter its prelude phase, avoiding areas with a high concentration of demon royalty, royal families, powerful individuals, and those near high-level secret realms.

Then, all 1000 vacant servant positions were allocated to star lords within the demon race's territory.

After enslaving the star field lords, they passed on this secret method of enslavement to them, enabling these star field lords to enslave the realm lords within their respective star fields.
In short, I require that most of the star system lords within the demon race's territory be part of this vast network of soul enslavement.

Once everything is ready, Jin Jiao, set a time. When the time comes, the demon-hunting plan will officially commence.

Have all the servants in this network capture all the demons in their respective areas and bring them into the world ring. After gathering them, infuse the token with divine power, and then I will teleport you back to the Heavenly Court.

The actions must begin simultaneously, and they must be swift. Do you understand?

After saying that, Lu Jin waved his hand and gave each of the servants present a Kunlun Token.

"I understand!"

Upon receiving the ancient Kunlun Token, the servants responded in unison.

At this moment, King Jin Jiao said, "Master, such a massive plan is bound to encounter many unexpected situations."

Lu Jin waved his hand dismissively: "It's alright. I can accept whatever the outcome of the demon-hunting plan is. Go and prepare the plan."

"Yes, Master!"

The demon servants spoke in unison and then orderly withdrew from the Lingxiao Palace.

'I wonder how successful this demon-hunting plan will be?'

Lu Jin thought to himself.

The demon race has two demon ancestors, plus numerous royal and royal families, making the race overall very powerful and occupying a much larger territory than the human race.

However, with over 12,000 servants, each with 1000 enslavement slots, under extreme conditions, this would be equivalent to enslaving 12 million demon star domain lords.

Assuming each star sector contains 10,000 star fields, this would cover 1,200 star sectors, enough to encompass the vast majority of star fields within the demon race's territory.

Once the net of soul enslavement is woven in place and the demon-hunting operation officially begins, even if only one percent succeeds, that one percent will still be members of the non-secret realm and non-divine kingdom demon race, which is an astronomical number.

As for the complete annihilation?

The complete annihilation is nothing; it simply means that all twelve thousand immortal servants at the peak of the King level or above, including King Jinjiao, will die once.

With the Immortal Transformation Pool in hand, the only losses were some Divine Source Liquid and the Immortal Divine Weapons carried by the servants, which Lu Jin didn't care about.

Moreover, even if the entire army is wiped out, that will only be the final, formal stage of the operation. The demon race will inevitably suffer losses in the prelude stage, which enslaved the twelve million demon star lords.

Those who can become Starfield Lords must be immortal gods.

If they can wipe out twelve million immortal demons, then all the effort Lu Jin has put in will not have been in vain.

However, even if this job is successful, or even if it is only half successful, it will still be a great catastrophe for the demon race.

As time passed, half a month later, the Time Dragon clone, having completely ended its battle journey, achieved a perfect record of 1528 wins.

While it's impossible to pinpoint the exact number of the 1528 battles, Lu Jin believes that the contribution of the Nine-Beast Lan Cang Venerable of the demon race was undoubtedly significant.

After all, among these 1,500-plus battles, there were quite a few first-level inheritors who, after he sent out challenge letters that were rejected, took the initiative to send him challenge letters again.

Of course, compared to the Water Kirin clone's more than 130,000 victories, the Time Dragon clone's record is nothing.

But that's enough. 100 Glory Points can be exchanged for one Inheritance, and more than 1,500 Glory Points is equivalent to 15 Inheritance opportunities.

With these fifteen opportunities for inheritance, his understanding of the laws of light and time fusion must have already reached the third level.

If one's understanding of the Light and Time Fusion Law reaches the third level, then the tens of thousands of Glory Points possessed by the Water Kirin clone will be equivalent to the Glory Points of the Time Dragon clone.

If the two clones fight each other, setting a limit not exceeding the Glory Points held by the Time Dragon clone, and then the Water Kirin clone either doesn't participate or throws the match, the Glory Points in the Water Kirin clone's account can be transferred to the Time Dragon clone's account.

Three days later, another major event occurred on Zijing Island.

The special life form 'King of Time', a Realm Lord-level being, accepted the invitation from the Bloodfire God General to join the Ancestral God Cult.

Then, amidst the endless lightning, the Thunder Beast God descended and bestowed upon them two supreme treasures: a suit of armor and a bowl.

Crystal Palace, within a world.

'Tsk~, not having perfect genes, yet the treatment is so different?'

Looking at the two treasures that appeared in front of him, Lu Jin couldn't help but curl his lips.

The Light-type Common Treasure Armor 'Glowing Star Armor' is a set of armor that is filled with starlight and dotted with stars.

The Radiant Glazed Cup, a top-tier treasure in the Light Element realm, is a colorful jade cup that resembles a piece of glazed glass, containing countless tiny white gold specks.

From Lu Jin's perspective, the combined value of these two treasures is only about 5 treasure points, far less than the ordinary treasures of the domain, soul, and palace types that the Water Kirin clone obtained back then.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Eight thousand times the life gene, although only two thousand times less than the perfect gene, represents completely different meanings.

Furthermore, the talent displayed by the Time Dragon clone in the Law of Light and Time Fusion is far inferior to that displayed by the Water Kirin clone in the Law of Spacetime Fusion.

It can only be said that the Water Kirin clone with perfect genes is an exception, while clones like the Time Dragon are the normal phenomenon.

What Lu Jin didn't know was that, in the eyes of the dual-faced Ancestral God, the fact that the Water Kirin clone possessed perfect genes that were theoretically impossible was definitely the result of special care and favor from the Origin Will.

Putting aside everything else, the fact that the Water Qilin clone is specially favored by the Origin Will alone means that the Ancestral God Sect must give it special treatment.

With the two treasures acquired, the Time Dragon clone replaced the top-tier domain treasure 'Radiant Glazed Lamp' with the supreme treasure 'Dawn Temple', replacing the top-tier treasure 'Radiant Paradise' which combined domain and palace-type treasures.

As for the ordinary treasure armor 'Liuguang Xingchen Armor', with the 'Wanhua Xiguang Pearl' already available, this treasure armor has become a dusty item in the warehouse.

To be honest, in Lu Jin's opinion, unless it is a common treasure of the domain, soul, or palace type, treasures of this level are somewhat useless.

Aside from what he uses right now, his ordinary treasures are neither particularly good nor bad.

The human venerables nurtured by the divine status of the higher laws, who were the heavenly generals of the Heavenly Court in the early stages, were all cultivated by Lu Jin into cosmic overlords.

For a cosmic overlord, ordinary treasures are somewhat insufficient; even the most basic armor and weapons require at least high-level treasures.

Otherwise, without high-grade treasure armor, given the size of their divine bodies, they would most likely be instantly killed by a top alien cosmic overlord unleashing their full power.
