Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 275 Qiqu Starlight Lake: Borrowing the Ancestor's Tricks

Although it's not time for the Universal Alliance to disappear yet.

The vast territory of 4936 star sectors that the Heavenly Court had previously acquired is still not fully digested, even after thousands of years.

There are still many uninhabited or sparsely populated areas, and even some remote star sectors, that have not yet been completely cleared. It is not yet time for the Heavenly Court to launch a new round of territorial expansion.

But the Blood Demon Ancestor is not the Heavenly Court; he is merely a virtuous person.

The most powerful and precious treasures belong to the virtuous.

Your supreme treasure is indeed remarkable, and it has a connection with me, the ancestor. I advise you not to be ungrateful.

In particular, the True God of the Universe Alliance, according to the intelligence data collected by the human race, is a black scaled beast with a powerful claw-shaped weapon, which is very suitable for the Water Qilin clone to use.

Subsequently, Lu Jin began to fine-tune the sixth-order secret technique 'Return to the Void' to make it applicable to all clones and avatars.

On the other side, inside the Star Tower, a magnificent hall surrounded by countless sealed stars.

"Child~"

A gentle voice reached Luo Feng's ears as he awoke from his slumber.

As he stood up and turned to look, Luo Feng saw two figures not far away.

One of the figures was the familiar cosmic lord 'Puti', while the other was an old man over 900 meters tall, wearing cyan armor, with transparent horns on his forehead, radiating endless aura.

The old man exuded a gentle aura, but to Luo Feng, it felt far more powerful than that of his teacher, the Lord of Chaos City.

Most importantly, at this moment, he was unable to perceive the existence of the fundamental laws of the universe.

'The strongest in the universe!'

Luo Feng's pupils constricted slightly as he recalled the characteristics possessed by the strongest beings in the universe that he had researched in the Heavenly Court.

"Child, there's no need to be nervous."

You have acknowledged the Star Tower as your master. From this moment forward, you are the leader of the Earth lineage and are qualified to be among the super-strongest beings in the universe.

The voice of the mountain dweller boomed and entered Luo Feng's heart.

After waiting for countless years, he finally found the inheritor who could recognize the Star Tower as his master!

Puti smiled at Luo Feng and said, "Luo Feng, congratulations."

Luo Feng's expression turned solemn, and he respectfully bowed to the guest sitting on the mountain, saying, "Luo Feng thanks you for your guidance, senior."

After a pause, Luo Feng hesitated for a moment before saying, "As for Ling Xiao, the leader of the Earth lineage, he asked me to tell you that as long as you do not become an enemy of the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Court will owe you a favor."

Make me the leader of the Earth's lineage?

You must be joking!

Upon hearing this, the mountain dweller couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.

In my excitement, I forgot all about that!
Earth?

Earth is no longer his Earth; it has become a nursery for the Heavenly Court.

To take back Earth, we must first get past the Heavenly Court.

Not to mention the large number of powerful figures in the Heavenly Court, the fact that the Heavenly Court has set up its stronghold inside a supreme treasure of the sealing type is simply unsolvable.

Fortunately, Luo Feng has appeared, and the Earth that was once painstakingly transformed has completed the mission it was given.

'If that freak can become a god-king, then this favor will be worth a fortune.'

The mountain dweller thought to himself.

Although the possibility of Lu Jin becoming a God King in the future is very small, looking at his path of growth, it is not entirely without hope.

Without going into too much detail, just from the divine power burning technique that Heaven used to create two more heads and four more arms, the Mountain Dweller could already discern something about it.

Although the effect is the same as the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique of the Jin Kingdom, both of which increase combat power tenfold with each level.

However, after careful observation, he found that the Heavenly Court's secret technique for burning divine power consumed very little divine power, making it far superior to the divine power burning technique he, as a reincarnated god-king, possessed.

Even if it's not the most core inheritance, possessing such a lineage is destined to make one extraordinary.

Seven days later, in the virtual universe, in the Heavenly Court dimension.

Inside a magnificent pavilion, Lu Jin and Luo Feng sat around a stone table, sipping fragrant tea.

"How was it? Was the Star Tower powerful enough? Was the process of recognizing you as its master satisfying?"

Lu Jin asked jokingly.

To be honest, it was somewhat unexpected for Lu Jin.

In the original novel, it took Luo Feng more than six thousand years to successfully recognize the Star Tower as his master.

But nowadays, it's only been a little over four thousand years.

Perhaps due to the Xuan Sha Tian Will Training Ground, Luo Feng's will is stronger than in the original story, resulting in a shorter time for him to recognize the Star Tower as his master?
Upon hearing this, recalling the countless brushes with death he had faced during the process of the Star Tower recognizing him as its master, Luo Feng was still filled with lingering fear, even though the Star Tower had now been recognized by him.

Luo Feng, who had finally overcome his hardships, smiled and said, "Fortunately, I spent a lot of time in the Willpower Training Ground before, otherwise I would have really missed the Star Tower."

The process of recognizing the Star Tower as its master is painful, but after recognizing it, he is happy.

Not to mention the Star Tower, a supreme treasure that combines the functions of a palace, a seal, a weapon, and a soul, the will he gained from undergoing trials and tribulations and reaching the level of a cosmic venerable was of immense benefit to him.

At this moment, noticing a slight discomfort in his lower back, Luo Feng remembered something important and immediately said to Lu Jin with gratitude, "Thank you so much for Xu Xin's matter."

To be honest, Luo Feng was shocked when he learned that Xu Xin had gone from being the Venerable of Bright Moon to the Lord of Bright Moon.

Aside from Lu Jin, he is the strongest genius of the human race in this era.

Even a genius like him is only a realm lord at the moment.

However, his wife, who was considered a "cultivation failure," had already mastered spacetime and become a universe lord who was high enough to rank among the highest levels of her race.

It's outrageous!
He wouldn't have believed it if the facts hadn't been right in front of him.

Lu Jin waved his hand and said, "It wasn't given away for free. You'll have to pay it back slowly. When are you planning to become immortal?"

After pondering for a moment, Luo Feng said, "Let's break through after we've fully comprehended the three profound mysteries of the two superior laws."

If one can fully comprehend the three profound mysteries of the two superior laws at the realm master stage, one will be able to reach the peak of kingship upon entering immortality and become a cosmic overlord upon entering the venerable stage. This is far more efficient than slowly comprehending the superior laws later on.

"By the way, what exactly is the situation with the Universal Alliance?"
"I've only spent a few thousand years inside the Star Tower, but it feels like the entire structure of the primordial universe has changed?"

Recalling the current situation facing the human race that he learned about after leaving the tower, Luo Feng couldn't help but ask Lu Jin.

Lu Jin said nonchalantly, "More than three thousand years ago, the Heavenly Court swept through the Crystal Clan Alliance and the Prison Clan Alliance, and also killed two demon ancestors of the demon race."

Four true gods perished in the primordial universe, followed by a group of withered bones in their graves. Fearing that the Heavenly Court would also sweep them into the dustbin of history, they banded together and formed an alliance for mutual support.

"I've heard that the Universal Alliance has ten of the strongest beings in the universe and nearly eight hundred universe lords. Can they handle it?"

Luo Feng asked with a worried expression.

Lu Jin said, "Apart from your teacher, Zuo Shan Ke, the rest are no problem."

The old man who sat on the mountain was rather cunning. He did not achieve true godhood through the path of divine power, but through the path of laws. Therefore, his divine body was no stronger than that of other true gods.

However, he was once a god-king level treasure refiner. As long as he had enough materials, he could refine a set of top-grade and supreme treasures for himself without any problem.

In addition to the secret techniques and divine power burning secret arts he has mastered, his true strength must far exceed his current level.

Of course, if it were within the primordial universe, Lu Jin wouldn't be afraid of the Mountain-Sitting Guest.

It's not impossible that even numerous Blood God Child incarnations, transformed by divine bodies, could join forces to capture the Mountain-Sitting Guest and imprison him in the Fanlong Heaven.

"Is Teacher Zuoshanke really that strong?"

Luo Feng couldn't help but be a little surprised.

In Luo Feng's view, Master Zuoshanke's ability to refine Star Towers of the highest level of treasures shows that he is a master of treasure refining.

However, someone who has achieved such great success in the art of treasure refining must inevitably be much weaker in terms of combat power.

But judging from Lu Jin's words, the strongest person in the Universal Alliance is actually his own teacher, Zuo Shan Ke?
Lu Jin asked in surprise, "Do you have some misunderstanding about treasure refiners?"
Unlike pharmacists, treasure refiners are quite powerful, especially those at the level of supreme treasure refiners.

The most powerful treasures contain multiple layers of secret patterns. The level of these patterns indicates the level of the treasure refiner's secret techniques.

It can be said that a strong person is not necessarily an excellent treasure refiner, but an excellent treasure refiner is definitely a strong person.

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng clicked his tongue and said, "Teacher Zuoshanke should not be an enemy of the human race. As long as the Heavenly Court is confident in dealing with the other powerful figures of the Universal Alliance, that's fine."

When I first heard that the Universal Alliance had so many powerful figures, I almost thought we were facing a crisis of annihilation.

As expected, the Heavenly Court's strength remained unchanged, always surpassing that of its enemies.

That's right. Although Brother Jin is a playboy, he never fights a battle he's not sure he can win.

Since they've already started, they must have considered the consequences and made preparations.

Several hundred years later, inside the Hall of Ascension, Lu Jin completed the fine-tuning of the sixth-order secret technique, 'Return to the Void'.

It can be not only a gun technique, but also a sword technique or a claw technique.

Subsequently, a Blood God Child whose divine body had been transformed into perfect genes left the Hall of Ascension to Immortality, visited the Hall of Lingxiao and the Hall of Spiritual Treasures, and then headed to the Netherworld God Kingdom.

"Shh!"

In the boundless starry sky of the Northern Frontier Alliance territory, a blood-haired figure clad in crimson armor descended.

After its establishment, the Universal Alliance set up its headquarters not far from the headquarters of the Northern Frontier Alliance.

Having determined his direction, Lu Jin used teleportation repeatedly, heading towards the headquarters of the Universal Alliance.

Before long, a magnificent palace complex stretching for trillions of kilometers came into Lu Jin's view in the far distance.

"Who comes from?"

A loud shout rang out, and a beast-like universe lord covered in earth-yellow scales teleported in, staring solemnly at the Blood God Child avatar, this uninvited guest emanating fluctuations in spacetime.

“You lowly ants, hurry and go and announce that your Universal Alliance’s true god must kneel to welcome the arrival of our ancestor.”

Lu Jin said arrogantly.

Upon hearing this extremely arrogant tone, coupled with the image of blood-armored and blood-haired, the Lord of Jianyao, who came from the Northern Frontier Alliance, recognized the identity of the Blood God Child's incarnation.

Although surprised that the Blood Demon had entered the ranks of the universe so quickly, the Lord of Jianyao was also burning with rage.

Lowly ants?
How could I, a dignified third-order universe master, be considered an ant?
And you expect the strongest player in the league to kneel before you? You think you're worthy?
However, upon remembering that this 'Blood Demon' was truly immortal and had now become the Lord of the Universe, making him far more difficult to deal with, Lord Jianyao had no choice but to suppress his thoughts of resorting to force.

The Lord of Jianyao warned with an unfriendly expression: "Blood Demon, although you have become the Lord of the Universe, my Universal Alliance is the strongest force in the original universe, and this place is the headquarters of the Alliance. I advise you to maintain a sense of awe."

"You mere ant, how dare you call me Blood Demon? My name is 'Blood Sea Demon Ancestor,' how dare you disrespect me! You deserve to be executed!"

Lu Jin rebuked him without any politeness. A flash of blood-red light appeared in his hand, and a huge skull appeared on the hilt of a sword. The blade was covered with a ferocious blood-red flame.

"Whoosh—" With the first level of the Three Heads and Six Arms technique activated, a terrifying pressure spread. Lu Jin used the sixth-order secret technique 'Return to the Void' and slashed down with the top-grade treasure sword he named 'Blood Demon Sword'.

Of course, due to the illusionary supernatural power, the divine body of the Blood God Child's incarnation did not change when he activated the three heads and six arms.

Otherwise, wouldn't using three heads and six arms expose his identity?
"Shh!"

A massive secret pattern materialized, and in an instant, a ten-thousand-mile-long black sword beam radiating an intense sense of annihilation appeared, then instantly ripped through space and struck the divine body of the Lord of Jianyao.

"boom--"

A violent roar resounded, and the moment it was struck by the dark sword light, boundless dark light erupted, instantly engulfing the Lord of Jianyao.

At that moment, the Lord of Jianyao felt an incomparably terrifying attack upon him, and then his divine body, which stretched for hundreds of kilometers, turned into nothingness and he perished on the spot.

With a perfect genetic body and a sixth-order secret technique, even without the most powerful treasures, Lu Jin's Blood God Child incarnation still possesses the strength of a sixth-order universe master.

Furthermore, with the first level of the Three Heads and Six Arms technique, which increases combat power tenfold, one's strength can reach the seventh rank.

Even if limited by the original universe, it can still reach the top level of the sixth rank.

A top-tier sixth-order warrior fighting a third-order warrior, and this Lord of Jianyao was relatively poor, lacking any top-tier treasure armor for protection. His top-tier treasure armor was practically useless, and he was instantly killed by a single sword strike.

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

Just then, four more Universe Lords teleported to the distant headquarters of the Universal Alliance.

"Blood Sea Demon Ancestor, neither the Northern Frontier Alliance nor the Universal Alliance has ever offended you, so why are you resorting to such ruthless attacks?"

After glancing at the several treasures left behind by the fallen Lord Jianyao, a Lord of the Universe angrily questioned.

Lu Jin ignored him and turned her gaze to a figure that was silently approaching from a distance.

This was an old man whose divine body did not appear very large. He resembled a human, with white hair and beard, and his entire body was covered in wrinkles, making him look rather eerie.

"Hehe~, who do we have here? It turns out to be our young friend Blood Demon. What a rare guest."

The leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance squinted and chuckled, seemingly unconcerned that Lu Jin had previously killed a Jianyao leader from the Northern Frontier Alliance.

The leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance was naturally aware of the strength of the Lord of Jianyao.

The fact that Blood Demon could kill Lord Jianyao in one move shows that his strength has reached at least the level of a sixth-order universe lord.

Regardless of how Blood Demon acquired his strength as a sixth-order universe lord, he deserves to be treated with utmost care by this true god.

After all, in the primordial universe, even a true god could only unleash the strongest sixth-tier power at most, not to mention that the Blood Demon was extremely difficult to deal with and could not be killed at all.

Lu Jin said, "Northern Frontier, surely your Universal Alliance wouldn't refuse the friendship of our Ancestor?"

Northern Frontier Alliance Leader: "."

Good grief, are they trying to extort the Global Alliance?

It's not that the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance thinks this way, but rather that Blood Demon has a history of such behavior.

Before he became the master of the universe, he dared to extort the four races of humans, insects, demons, and machines. Now that he has become the master of the universe and has gained power, wouldn't he become even more ruthless?
After a moment of contemplation, the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance said, "Blood Demon, if you can deal with the Human Heavenly Court, then this matter is not unnecessarily negotiable."

It's best to avoid provoking a ruthless character like the Blood Demon if possible.

If they can get rid of them, or even turn their attention to the human race, then the Universal Alliance might be able to come up with something substantial.

"very good!"

Lu Jin nodded in satisfaction and said, "Friendship is mutual. Now that the Universal Alliance has accepted the Ancestor's friendship, it is your turn to show the Ancestor your friendship."

As we all know, the most powerful and precious things belong to those with virtue.

This humble ancestor, though unworthy, considers himself a person of great virtue.

So, Northern Frontier, lend your Qiqu Starlight Lake to our ancestors for a bit of fun.

"Don't worry, I was just playing around for a while, I'll return it to you soon."

If you borrow and repay, it's easy to borrow again.

If someone borrows money and doesn't repay it, kill the creditor and take it all.

"It's easy to leave without seeing him off."

The leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance said with a gloomy expression.

He had tried to overestimate the Blood Demon's appetite, but he still underestimated it.

Do you want my Qiqu Starlight Lake?
I want to eat fart!
Seeing that the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance was not welcoming him, Lu Jin immediately scolded, "You despicable thief, quickly return the Ancestor's Qiqu Starlight Lake, or the Ancestor will surely turn you to ashes!"

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance was so angry that he laughed.

I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone this shameless.

"This alliance leader wants to see just how capable you are, young man!"

After saying that, the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader's divine power ignited, and amidst the terrifying aura of divine power, countless starlight points appeared out of thin air.

In an instant, the entire area within dozens of light-years was enveloped by countless points of starlight connected by fine threads.

Others may fear the Blood Demon, but he is not.

Unlike the true gods from the pinnacle of their races, he doesn't necessarily need the Northern Frontier Alliance.

As long as the Blood Demon is no match for him, he has no fear of any retaliation from the Blood Demon.

"Indeed, Ancestor's Qiqu Starlight Lake is a treasure!"

The powerful restrictive force of the supreme treasure of the domain descended, but Lu Jin did not care and instead commented.

"Shh!"

The next moment, with a thought from Lu Jin, his figure disappeared from the spot.

In its place stands a towering, blood-red palace, light-years high.

"Whoohoo-"

Immediately afterwards, under Lu Jin's control, the Lingxiao Palace, which had been transformed into a majestic blood-red palace, unleashed a terrifying suction power that directly affected the divine body of the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader.

While it's true that powerful artifacts can give you the upper hand in battle, that doesn't mean there's no way to counter them.

He wanted to see whether the restrictive power of the domain-type supreme treasure was stronger, or whether the Lingxiao Palace, which could unleash the full potential of the palace-type and sealing supreme treasure, was stronger.

"The most powerful palace treasure?!"

The Northern Frontier Alliance Leader exclaimed in horror as he struggled against the powerful suction force emanating from the majestic crimson palace.

Lu Jin said, "Now that you recognize this treasure, why not quickly kneel down and surrender?"

"Hmph~, so what if you have the most powerful palace treasures?"

The leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance spoke coldly, and at the same time, through the divine avatar left in the headquarters of the Universal Alliance, he summoned the strongest beings in the universe to come and provide support.

"You're so stubborn, you'll regret it later!"

Lu Jin made a sarcastic remark, and then teleported the Lingxiao Palace back to the Netherworld God Kingdom.

"!!!"

Upon seeing this, the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance's pupils contracted, and he was greatly alarmed.

This Blood Demon, even within the domain formed by the Starlight Lake of Qiqu, was still able to perform spatial teleportation?

However, just as the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance was shocked, the majestic blood-red palace reappeared.

And this time, the majestic crimson palace appeared directly in front of him, not far away.

'boom--'

A powerful suction force erupted once again from the blood-red, majestic palace.

'not good! '

The Northern Frontier Alliance Leader's expression changed drastically. Even with the help of the supreme domain treasure, his divine body still could not completely resist and gradually flew uncontrollably towards the Lingxiao Palace.

"Damn it!"

Seeing that he was about to be taken into a palace-type supreme treasure, the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader had no choice but to curse inwardly and manifest a peak palace-type supreme treasure to hide inside.

"Shh!"

With the appearance of the supreme treasure of the Peak Palace, coupled with the supreme treasure of the Domain category, 'Qiqu Starlight Lake', the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader was able to block the absorption of the Lingxiao Palace.

If he were facing the "Map of Mountains and Rivers" at this moment, he would most likely have no chance.

However, the Lingxiao Palace is not a special type of sealing treasure, but a palace-type treasure. Its sealing effect is not as strong as its defensive effect, so the two sides fought to a standstill.

Having blocked the opponent's palace-type supreme treasure from absorbing its power, the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice, "Blood Demon, retreat quickly, and I will let bygones be bygones."

Lu Jin chuckled and said, "Hehehe—, I'm putting my words here today: either hand over Qiqu Starlight Lake, or die!"

Let bygones be bygones?

They simply chickened out when they saw the situation was turning against them.

Immediately, within the Great Luo Heaven Immortal Palace, over a hundred Blood God Child incarnations, whose divine bodies had been transformed into perfect genes, headed to the Netherworld Heavenly God Kingdom.

If you can't overwhelm your opponent in terms of quality, then overwhelm them in terms of quantity.

Today, he not only intends to kill the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance and seize the supreme treasure of the domain, the Qiqu Starlight Lake, but also to launch another major attack.

Lu Jin was certain that the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance was already secretly calling for reinforcements.

I wonder how many true gods I can kill this time, and how many supreme treasures I can acquire?

The reinforcements from the Global Alliance arrived even faster than Lu Jin had anticipated.

'boom--'

Before the Blood God Child's avatar could even leave the Immortal Ascension Palace and teleport in, a powerful aura appeared in the distant starry sky.

Looking into the distance, Lu Jin saw a huge, oval-shaped black sphere, radiating endless pressure, descending from the starry sky dozens of light-years away.

Following that, the strongest warriors arrived one after another.

A gigantic purple sphere, a golden-scaled beast stretching over 90,000 kilometers, a dragon-headed beast with nine sharp horns on its head, a silver-haired figure with a face that is both male and female, wearing a purple robe, a green-skinned hunchbacked old man with tentacles, a massive beast covered in black scales, a fire giant wearing black armor, and a majestic old man with transparent double horns on his head.

"Heh~, all ten true gods of the Universal Alliance are present, it's quite a grand occasion."

Inside the Lingxiao Palace, Lu Jin's voice boomed, carrying for hundreds of light-years.

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

At the same time, within the Netherworld God Kingdom, Lu Jin communicated with the Kunlun Mirror and teleported one hundred Blood God Child avatars into the Crimson Lingxiao Palace.
