Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 219 Slaying Six Universe Lords
Inside the Lingxiao Palace.

Lu Jin's mind raced, and he communicated with the Kunlun Mirror to locate a Kunlun token placed in advance by a king-level servant of the Chan Chu clan, activating the remote detection mode.

'Shuh! '

A vast wetland appeared in Lu Jin's God-like perspective.

Within this exploration area, which spans tens of millions of kilometers in diameter, numerous nests are nested in the wetlands.

Most of the nests are inhabited by creatures hundreds of meters long, with an impressive aura, and resembling toads.

This is the sacred land of the powerful Chanchu tribe, known as the 'Ten Thousand Swamps Continent,' inhabited by countless elites of the Chanchu tribe.

The greatest of the Tianchu tribe, the Lord of Bicheng, resides in the 'Tianchu Temple' at the very center of the Wanzhao Continent.

Subsequently, the Kunlun Mirror's observational perspective continued to extend towards the central Chanchu Temple.

Soon, a colorful beam of light shot into the sky in Lu Jin's God's-eye view.

At the base of the colorful, towering pillar of light is a 'Chanchu Temple' that is about 10,000 kilometers high, with many mythical beast reliefs on its walls, and looks like it was cast in crystal.

'It's good that it's still there.'

Gazing at the colorful pillar of light rising into the sky from the Temple of Chuanchu, Lu Jin thought to himself.

Under the 'Stronger Search Mode' of the Kunlun Mirror's God's-eye view, the life aura emitted by powerful beings who are masters of the universe will appear as colorful pillars of light shooting into the sky.

The distant Temple of Bichuan can emit colorful pillars of light from God's perspective, which means that the Lord of Bichuan is currently inside the temple.

Lingxiao Palace, inside Tianyan Fenxu Palace.

'tumultuous--'

The 700,000 top-tier overlord ghost warriors, arranged in seven combined attack formations, all burned their divine power under the control of Hong'er and her seven companions, and a terrifying aura of divine power permeated the entire Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace.

Everything was ready, just waiting for the earth-shattering combined attack to erupt. Hong'er's voice came from the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace: "Master, the legion's combined attack is ready."

"After the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace teleports, the target, Lord Bicheng, will be located eight million kilometers directly in front of us."

After giving the hint, Lu Jin had a thought and activated the Kunlun Realm.

"Shh!"

The next moment, the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace disappeared inside the Lingxiao Palace.

At the same time, in the sky above the sacred land of the powerful clan, the Wanzhao Continent, located in the heart of the territory of the Tianchu clan, which is extremely far from the human territory, a majestic fiery palace, exuding terrifying pressure and standing about ten thousand kilometers high, appeared without warning.

The moment the majestic fiery palace appeared, the Lord of Bichuan within the supreme treasure 'Chuan Chu Sacred Palace', sensing the overwhelming pressure of the treasure 'so close at hand', was terrified. He abruptly raised his fat head and looked towards the direction of the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace.

But at that moment, boundless crimson light rapidly spread out from the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace, as Hong'er activated the high-level treasure, the 'Eight Desolate Divine Fire Mirror'.

In an instant, an area within a light-year radius of the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace was filled with endless illusory flames.

The magnificent, illusory firelight directly enveloped a large portion of the Wanzang Continent.

"Who?!"

A terrifying binding force descended, instantly imprisoning the entire Bichuan Temple in place. Inside the temple, the Lord of Bichuan roared in horror as he questioned the situation.

Hong'er did not answer the question from the Lord of Bicheng, but instead took the lead in controlling her top overlord ghost warriors to launch a legion attack.

*Whoosh!* *Whoosh!* *Whoosh!*

In an instant, 100,000 attacks of ethereal divine power from top-tier overlord warriors burst forth from the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace, instantly traversing a distance of eight million kilometers, and simultaneously and precisely striking the ordinary treasure palace, the Chuan Chu Holy Temple.

While palace treasures are indeed powerful defensively, ordinary palace treasures are rather rudimentary in a battle between beings at the level of universe masters.

All treasures have certain limits and damage values.

As long as the attack power does not exceed the treasure's limit, the treasure's effectiveness will not be affected.

If the attack power exceeds the damage threshold of the treasure, the material-type attack will cause some damage to the treasure, or even completely destroy it.

However, soul-type attacks, because they are intangible and formless, will not damage the treasure even if they exceed its damage threshold.

Like ordinary palace treasures, they are almost completely immune to material attacks from top-tier cosmic overlords, and significantly weaken soul attacks from top-tier cosmic overlords.

However, the combined attack of 100,000 top-tier overlord warriors far exceeded the limits of ordinary palace treasures.

'boom--'

A combined attack of 100,000 ethereal divine powers descended, instantly unleashing an extremely terrifying soul storm centered on the Chanchu Holy Temple.

As soon as the soul storm that raged in all directions took shape, the Lord of Bichuan in the ordinary palace's treasure, the Temple of the River and Wood, felt an irresistible impact of ethereal divine power. Then his consciousness went black, and his soul was completely annihilated without any power to resist.

'good! ’

From God's perspective, Lu Jin was overjoyed to see the colorful pillar of light representing the life force of the universe dissipate and transform into a colorful ball of light representing a supreme treasure.

According to Hong'er's previous calculations, the combined attack of the basic legion of 100,000 top-tier overlord-level ghost warriors could rival that of a third-tier universe lord who excels in soul attacks.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Lord of Bicheng, whom he chose as an easy target, does not possess any high-grade or higher soul treasures.

After all, a universe master possessing a high-level soul treasure should be able to ignore soul attacks from universe masters of the third rank or below.

"End?"

Inside the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace, Cheng'er, who had just sensed the dissipation of the powerful aura of the Lord of the Azure River in the distance and was preparing to control her ghost warriors to unleash a legion attack, asked...

"It's over."

Hong'er nodded and urged the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace to fly to the sky above the Chan Chu Holy Temple.

Instantly, a powerful force of absorption appeared, and the now ownerless Chan Chu Holy Temple, along with the corpse of the Lord of Bi Chan within the Treasure Palace, was directly absorbed by Hong'er into the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace.

The next moment, Lu Jin's thoughts shifted, and the Kunlun Token, which had been used as a location marker, dissipated. He then activated the Kunlun Mirror to teleport the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace back to the Lingxiao Palace.

The Kunlun Token was naturally used to teleport the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace back to the Lingxiao Palace.

The Kunlun Token that served as a location marker had disappeared, but Hong'er and the other six each possessed a Kunlun Token.

The illusory flames that enveloped the entire world, along with the terrifying binding force, dissipated, leaving the numerous immortal beings and a few venerable ones of the Chan Chu clan on the Wanzhao Continent utterly bewildered.

What's going on?
"Oh no! The temple is gone!"

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

With a cry of surprise, a dense stream of light streaked across the sky, and a large number of powerful members of the Chanchu tribe, resembling toads, arrived at the original location of the Chanchu Holy Temple.

"Where is my great Lord of Bicheng?"

A cosmic venerable of the Chuan Chu clan said with an incredulous expression.

Before long, a streak of light flew in from the distance, and a King of the Bichuan clan cried out in terror, "Elders, something terrible has happened! A spatial rift has appeared in the sky above the divine kingdom of the great Lord of Bichuan!"

Upon hearing this, a single thought crossed the minds of all the powerful members of the Bichuan clan present. Just moments ago, their great Bichuan lord had fallen.

Lu Jin, the instigator, was unaware of the reactions of the many powerful members of the Chuan Chu tribe on the 'Ten Thousand Swamps Continent'.

Even if Lu Jin knew, he wouldn't care.

In the universe, the strong prey on the weak. As long as it's not human, he won't hesitate to kill it.

Even if the Chan Chu tribe, having lost its only Universe Lord, fell from a powerful tribe to an ordinary one, with its territory being encroached upon by other surrounding tribes, resulting in the deaths of many Chan Chu tribe members, Lu Jin would not feel the slightest guilt.

Because the person who is doing bad things now has already done good deeds and has accumulated 'immeasurable merit'.

Guilt and remorse are absolutely nonexistent for me.

Not to mention, even a benevolent person like Lu wouldn't see these sufferings, would he?

If you can't see it and it doesn't affect your interests, then just pretend you don't know.

After teleporting the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace back to the Lingxiao Palace, Lu Jin immediately activated the Kunlun Mirror to locate the Dark Feather Clan's Lord of the Night, and then teleported the Heavenly Flame Burning Void Palace to the other side.

Not long after, the Dark Feather Clan, a race of flesh and blood, saw its strongest member, Lord Yaoye, perish! The Dark Feather Clan fell to the level of an ordinary race, unless a new cosmic ruler rises within their ranks.

The Purple-Eyed Clan, a rock-type life form, has fallen, its strongest member, the Lord of Purple Light, perished! The Purple-Eyed Clan has fallen to the level of ordinary races.

The troll race, a race of flesh and blood, has fallen. Its strongest member, the Troll Lord, has perished! The troll race has fallen to the level of ordinary races.

The Mammoth Clan, a race of flesh and blood, has fallen. Its strongest member, the Sky-Supporting Lord, has perished! The Mammoth Clan has fallen to the level of an ordinary race.

The hunt was over in less than half an hour.

Unsurprisingly, the six second-tier Universe Lords, chosen by Lu Jin as his hunting targets, all perished under the combined attack of the top-tier overlord Ghost Warrior legion.

After stripping the treasures, the six divine bodies were intact, but the corpses, whose souls had long since perished, were stuffed into the Demon Refining Pot by Lu Jin for decomposition.

Before long, the Demon Refining Pot contained a massive amount of Universe Lord-level Life Source Crystals, a few Lower-level Law Godheads, six Spacetime Law Godheads, and six Bloodline Source Crystals, each with a power of a thousand times.

One of the criteria for a second-order universe master is possessing a thousand times the life genes.

Generally speaking, the life genes of a second-order universe master are exactly one thousand times larger.

Because the price difference of gene treasures at each stage is very large, with gene treasures having an upper limit of ten times, one hundred times, one thousand times and ten thousand times the effect, the price of them increases precipitously.

Once all other aspects reach the second-tier level, with the strength to crush even the top cosmic overlords, one can obtain wealth that can enhance life genes a thousandfold.

However, once the efficacy limit exceeds a thousand times that of genes, the price of gene treasures will skyrocket again. Continuing to increase genes by hundreds of times is not very meaningful, so it is better to buy stronger treasures and choose those with higher power to improve cost-effectiveness.

This resulted in the second-order universe masters in the original universe having a life gene count that was a thousand times greater.

"Shh!"

With a wave of his hand, Lu Jin took out the six spacetime law divine sparks from the Demon Refining Pot and placed them in front of Cheng'er and the other six.

"Thank you, Master!"

After receiving the divine spark of the laws of space and time, Cheng'er and the other six hurriedly expressed their gratitude.

"Go on, once you become a master of the universe, seize the time to train your legion warriors and improve your arcane skills as soon as possible."

Lu Jin waved his hand.

After Cheng'er and the other six left, Lu Jin looked at Hong'er and said, "Hong'er, you've done a great job this time. Would you like a reward?"

"Uh-huh!"

Hong'er nodded with a longing look on her face.

She didn't care what the specific reward was; she would like any reward from her master.

The rewards lasted for three days. After rewarding Hong'er and himself, Lu Jin began to examine the spoils he had obtained from killing the six universe lords.

With the Demon Refining Pot in hand, and given that these six Universe Lords weren't particularly strong and weren't qualified to possess too many good things, the bulk of their spoils would undoubtedly be the various resources obtained after dismantling the corpses.

But besides the corpses, the treasures possessed by these six cosmic lords were also considerable spoils of war.

Moreover, since they were all instantly annihilated using soul-based methods, none of the treasures suffered any damage.

After a thorough inventory, the spoils of war regarding treasures were tallied.

There are six top-tier treasure weapons, three high-tier treasure weapons, and five ordinary treasure weapons.

There are six top-tier treasure armors, two high-grade treasure armors, and four ordinary treasure armors.

One treasure for the higher realms, three treasures for the ordinary realms, two treasures for the ordinary souls, and three treasures for the ordinary palaces.

These are all the loot I've collected, all of which are worth at least as much as ordinary rare treasures, estimated to be worth around 1600 treasure points.

All six cosmic lords possess top-tier treasure weapons and armor, and also carry some lower-grade treasure armor and weapons.

However, those without a strong background cannot obtain high-end treasures such as those in the realm, soul, or palace categories.

To be honest, Lu Jin was already somewhat surprised that a high-level treasure could be found.

This high-level treasure is named 'Thousand-Jin Divine Thunder Domain'. Its appearance is a purple thunderball filled with lightning, and it was extracted from the body of the Suanyuan Lord of the Purple Suan Clan.

Since his own strength is still low, the high-level realm treasures in his hands are no different from ordinary realm treasures. He could give them to Zi Ni Chang or Zi Er.

After some careful selection, Lu Jin kept two ordinary soul treasures and the ordinary water-type palace treasure dropped by the Lord of Bicheng.

The Water Palace Treasure is given to the main body, and two Soul Treasures are given to the main body and the Time Dragon clone, one each, replacing the original top-tier Soul and Palace Treasures.

Afterwards, Lu Jin left the Great Luo Heaven and returned to the Time Palace, giving all the remaining treasures to Zi Ni Chang.

So many treasures?

Zi Nishang couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Although they can only be considered weak among the universe masters, they are still six universe masters who control time and space, so they still have some assets."

Not all six of these top-tier treasure armors are suitable for Hong'er and the others. Look in the clan's treasury and choose seven top-tier treasure armors for them. The rest you can decide how to arrange.

As Lu Jin spoke, he pointed to the six top-tier treasure armors.

Hong'er and her six companions have now all entered the realm of universe masters through the divine spark of the laws of space and time. Since their insectoid warriors occupy most of their strength, they can do without top-tier treasure weapons, but they still need top-tier treasure armor.

As for the other treasures...nmmp~, I'm still poor, I'll add them later.

"Ah."

Zi Ni Chang nodded.

Top-tier treasure armor isn't exactly a rare item; some are still found in the clan's treasury.
