Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 291 All are Lords of the Universe, Lords of the Caverns

Compared to the lords of the universe, the twelve true gods recovered their divine power much more slowly.

The efficiency with which a miniature universe absorbs chaotic energy and converts it into energy is solely dependent on the strength of its origin and is unaffected by other factors.

It took the Eight Heavenly Kings decades and the Four True Gods' servants over a hundred years to expand their divine bodies to their limits.

The difference lies in the fact that when the Eight Heavenly Kings entered the realm of true gods, their life genes were nearly 20,000 times stronger.

Although it's not 30,000 times stronger than the first level of the divine power route, and its advantage compared to the ordinary law route isn't too obvious, the origin of the miniature universe is indeed much more abundant.

Moreover, the miniature universe structure of the four true god servants is relatively weak, far inferior to that of the eight heavenly kings, and the efficiency of their miniature universe power conversion is naturally much lower.

However, after reaching their limit, the divine bodies of the twelve true gods were incredibly exaggerated. Thanks to their supernatural powers, the Law of Heaven and Earth had all been mastered to the third level, making each of them a super-giant divine body spanning a billion kilometers.

In terms of sheer height or length, it is ten times that of a true god at the second level of the divine power path, and its total divine power is a thousand times greater.

Fortunately, the twelve true gods were originally human or animal in form, not plant or rock-like life forms that are relatively inconvenient to move.

Otherwise, such a large divine body would be subject to certain limitations in its actions without the existence of an infinite divine body or a pseudo-divine power.

In the Great Luo Heaven, in the Lingxiao Palace, twelve True Gods entered the palace.

"Meet the Emperor of Heaven!"

The eight Heavenly Kings and four True God servants who had been summoned by Lu Jin bowed respectfully.

"No gift."

Lu Jin waved his hand, and four sets of Blood Sea Armor materialized, landing in front of the Primordial Island Lord, the Demon Beast Ancestor, the True God of Calamity, and the Lord of the Northern Frontier.

"This treasure set can be transformed into supreme treasures in the categories of melee weapons, armor, and domains. Give me your original supreme treasure armor."

Lu Jin spoke to the four progenitors of the demon beasts.

"Thank you, Heavenly Emperor!"

Upon hearing this, the four members of the Primordial Island Lord bowed in gratitude with excitement, quickly removing their original supreme treasure armor from its owner and handing it over, before accepting the Blood Sea Set.

Indeed, following the great Heavenly Emperor means a bright future!
The Bodhi Tree that greatly enhances comprehension, the mysterious divine power burning technique, the unheard-of 30,000 times life gene, the super-large divine body spanning a billion kilometers, and the current top-grade supreme treasure set—it's just too wonderful!

Before they followed His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, the strongest of the four of them was only at the eighth rank, and the weakest was only at the top of the seventh rank.

But in less than ten eras, their strength underwent a dramatic change.

Eighth-tier secret technique, the third level of Three Heads and Six Arms, thirty thousand times the life gene.

Even disregarding the immense physical strength of their billion-kilometer-long divine bodies and the super-powerful armor that grant them such resilience, all four of them are still top-tier eleventh-order true gods, something unimaginable before!
The once invincible Yuan, who roamed the universe, was only at the peak of the tenth rank.

I'm at the top of the eleventh rank, isn't that incredibly awesome?
After putting away the four supreme treasure armors, Lu Jin said, "I have a mission for you. You will go to the Cosmic Sea later and use the sealing treasures to retrieve the alien universe lords and bring them back."

If you are confident in destroying the soul, you can destroy the soul directly.

I will give further instructions on when to cease operations.

The future Heavenly Court's Lord of the Universe level may need to step into the realm of True God with the divine status of a True God-level Law God.

However, for their future, Lu Jin planned to wait until he had fully comprehended the "Miro Supreme Diagram" and modified their divine body genes before letting them become true gods by refining the divine sparks of the laws.

Even if they are true gods who achieved their divine power through external forces, they will not be weaker than true gods of the same level in any aspect.

Therefore, before fully comprehending the "Miro Supreme Diagram", the true god-level law divine status cannot be used for the time being.

In this way, there is no need to focus on hunting down the true gods in the cosmic sea. There are plenty of true gods in the world of Jin.

However, the Godhood of Spacetime Law and the Godhood of Fusion Law are needed.

As of now, there are still hundreds of celestial generals or cosmic venerables within the Temple of the Gods.

Secret techniques are an important component of the power of the Lord of the Universe and the True God, and the Lord of the Universe's efficiency in creating techniques is far beyond that of the Venerable One of the Universe.

It is necessary to elevate the top overlords and celestial generals within the Heavenly Temple to the ranks of the Lords of the Universe.

Moreover, although the Eight Heavenly Kings and the Four True Gods' servants are not skilled in soul magic, they do know it, just not as powerful as physical attack magic.

Even if the cosmic rulers they encountered had supreme soul treasures protecting their souls, they might not be able to withstand the soul annihilation.

"Yes, Heavenly Emperor!"

The crowd bowed in response.

"Heavenly Emperor, will you indiscriminately suppress and kill them, or will you specifically target the universe lords of certain forces?"

Dhritarashtra asked the question.

"It doesn't matter, as long as it's not the ruler of my human universe."

Lu Jin said nonchalantly.

There is no cosmic lord or true god that the Heavenly Court dares not kill in the Cosmic Sea.

Back then, when the Blood God Child disguised himself as the real Blood God and searched for treasures inside the spaceship, he also hunted down many universe lords from various forces.

Aside from the subsequent actions that resulted in the complete annihilation of the Divine Eye Clan, no other force dared to retaliate.

It's not that these forces have become vegetarians; rather, they know they can't afford to offend the Heavenly Court, so they can only pretend not to know.

After a pause, Lu Jin looked at the Island Master of Shihua and said, "Shihua, you have the strongest will. Go to the Black Pattern Stone Pillar space of the Spaceship and bring back the Blood Sea Demon Armor that roams the Demon God."

The three cunning old foxes—the Rampaging Demon God, the Blood Orchid Ancestor, and the Star Lord of the Black-Patterned Stone Pillar Space—are incredibly shrewd.

After the Blood God Child's incarnation challenged them to a fight, he immediately ran into the high-intensity will impact zone of the Black Pattern Stone Pillar space and stayed inside, refusing to come out.

Because he had not honed his willpower for very long, Lu Jin was stronger than them in terms of overall strength.

But in terms of willpower, they really can't compare to Hengxing, Xuelan, and Beichi, who have been tempered over countless years.

Even if the Blood Orchid Ancestor and the Star Lord of Beichi possessed supreme treasures, they weren't worth his special attention.

But the Rampaging Demon God is different. The Blood Sea Demon Armor is a treasure at the level of a Void True God, and its value is incomparable to that of a True God-level supreme treasure armor.

Besides, does a mere rampant demon god deserve to use the same name of a supreme treasure armor as the Blood Sea Demon Ancestor?
"Yes, Heavenly Emperor."

The Lord of Shihua Island responded.

Little one, only at the top of the eighth rank, easily handled.

On the other side, the primordial star.

"Tsk~, another treasure."

After driving away the crowd of onlookers and putting away the ordinary treasure sword that had just appeared, Luo Feng couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a primordial planet teeming with treasures.

Having been on the Primordial Star for only two hundred years, in addition to the spoils of war, he had previously acquired a high-grade treasure weapon, a common treasure armor, and dozens of other precious treasures.

Compared to exploring secret realms, the probability of finding treasures on the Primordial Star is frighteningly high.

However, on the other hand, three low-level treasures are simply useless!
Luo Feng hadn't forgotten that the top-tier domain treasure he possessed, the 'Golden Light Domain,' was rented from the Spirit Treasure Hall.

Moreover, the rental fees are not low; not counting the loot, the gains so far are not even enough to cover the rental fees.

"If I use the Star Tower as a telekinetic weapon, my strength will be roughly at the level of a third-tier universe lord. If I use it as a palace-type treasure, even the strongest beings in the universe will be unable to do anything to me."

How about we go to the Cosmic Sea? I've heard that many treasures emerge there, and of relatively high quality.

Luo Feng thought to himself.

Suddenly, at that moment, Luo Feng felt a strong disturbance in the 'Wings of Slaughter' that his teacher, the Lord of Chaos City, had given him as a treasure of flight wings.

"what's the situation?"

Luo Feng was shocked when he glanced at the suddenly trembling wings of the Wu-Slaying Warrior.

This tremor was extremely sudden and completely uncontrollable, as if there was an enormous magnet in the distance attracting the 'iron' that was Shi Wu Yu Yi.

'Could it be another part of the wings that killed Wu?!'

After a moment's thought, Luo Feng came up with the only possibility.

A treasure that has been given a master is theoretically not subject to the possibility of going out of control.

However, if they are individual Arcana pieces, then it makes sense; it's the unique appeal between the individual pieces of an Arcana set.

When scattered Arcana items appear within a certain range, they will attract each other.

"Whoosh!"

Without hesitation, Luo Feng transformed into a streak of light and flew at top speed toward the direction from which the attraction was coming from.

Before long, Luo Feng saw a humanoid powerhouse with gray secret patterns on his face and three pairs of wings spread out on his back, flying rapidly towards him.

'Dark Feather Venerable?'

Luo Feng immediately recognized the other party's origin.

Dark Feather Venerable, a cosmic overlord, comes from the powerful Ji Feather Clan.

The Feathered Race was originally a member of the Mechanical Race Alliance, and is now one of the many powerful races under the Universal Alliance.

"The Human Dao River Venerable?"

Upon seeing that the other party was the Daohe Venerable, who had single-handedly killed the 'Lord of the Azure Beast' a hundred years ago in the Primordial Star and was extremely famous, the Dark Feather Venerable was startled and hurriedly ran away.

"Are you kidding me? The other party is a top-tier universe overlord who can single-handedly kill a second-tier universe master. I'm just a universe overlord with a hundred times the genetic power. How am I supposed to fight him?"
"Humph!"

Luo Feng snorted coldly, his divine power ignited, and he activated the top-tier domain treasure 'Golden Light Domain'. As the dazzling golden light bloomed, endless golden water flow instantly enveloped the fleeing Dark Feather Venerable.

"Golden light!"

The ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe, 'Golden Light,' was unleashed. Luo Feng slashed out with his top-tier treasured battle blade, and a dazzling golden blade light burst forth.

"boom!"

A violent roar resounded, and the Dark Feather Venerable's divine body turned into dust.

The next moment, Venerable Dark Feather's divine body reassembled, but the life force he emitted weakened significantly, and his strength was reduced to less than one-hundredth.

"Lord Daohe, spare my life, and I will hand over the treasured wings!"

As soon as the divine body was reunited, Venerable Dark Feather shouted.

Clearly, Venerable Dark Feather was also perceptive, knowing that if he didn't hand over the 'Radiant Wings,' he wouldn't be able to save his life.

"bring here."

Luo Feng said in a cold voice.

Dark Feather Venerable dared not be negligent. He hurriedly broke the bond with the master, forced out the wing treasure that had merged with his divine body, and threw it at Luo Feng.

"Where did you get this winged treasure?"

"Put away the silver-colored 'Killing Wu' wing component," Luo Feng asked.

Since the wings of the assassin Wu are incomplete, and now that one component has appeared, the possibility that there are other components cannot be ruled out.

Dark Feather Venerable dared not conceal the truth and hurriedly said, "This supreme treasure of wings originally belonged to Venerable Tianyang, the top cosmic overlord of the Mechanical Race. Later, when my Jiyu Race attacked the Mechanical Race, Venerable Tianyang was killed by the Lord of Jiyu Race of my race. At that time, I also participated in the war against the Mechanical Race, and the great Lord of Jiyu Race bestowed this supreme treasure of wings upon me."

'Wow—'

The next moment, Luo Feng's divine power became ethereal, and he activated the soul enslavement secret technique 'Ten Thousand Hearts Controlling Soul'.

"You despicable human, you break your promise!"

Upon sensing the intrusion of the ethereal divine power, Venerable Dark Feather was immediately enraged, and then a resolute look appeared in his shocked and angry eyes.

Fortunately, he possessed a top-grade ordinary soul treasure; otherwise, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand the opponent's soul enslavement technique.

"boom--"

A violent roar resounded, and a terrifying energy shock suddenly appeared. Knowing that he was definitely not going to escape today, Venerable Dark Feather directly self-destructed his divine body.

There's still a chance of resurrection if you self-destruct, but if you become a soul slave, then you're truly finished.

In particular, the alchemists of the Heavenly Court of the human race concocted the extremely evil Divine Source Tower, which is simply a nightmare for immortal and higher-level soul servants.

Once you become a soul slave and enter the Divine Source Tower, you're basically stuck there for life.

Did I promise to let you go?

Luo Feng curled his lip, stepped forward to collect the treasure left behind by Dark Feather Venerable after his self-destruction, and then left the Primal Star.

In Luo Feng's view, Lu Jin is not only a good role model for him, but also a guiding light.

As is widely known, His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor is known for his lack of martial virtue.

Moreover, in a world where the strong prey on the weak, it's understandable to be unethical when dealing with enemies.

One month later, inside the Lingxiao Palace.

"Heavenly Emperor, the rampaging demon god has been slain, the Blood Sea Demon Armor has been brought back, and there are also some corpses of universe lords."

The other world ring was a reward from the collapse of the rampaging demon god's miniature universe.

As he spoke, the Lord of Shihua Island handed over two supreme-grade world rings.

The Rampaging Demon God was merely a top-tier eighth-order True God clad in the Supreme Treasure Armor. Compared to the top-tier eleventh-order Primordial Island Lord, their strength was worlds apart.

After some effort, the Lord of Shihua Island killed the rampaging demon god who refused to hand over the Blood Sea Demon Armor.

Moreover, he killed the true god by shattering his heart, bringing back not only the Blood Sea Demon Armor but also the corpse of the rampaging demon god.

"Ah."

Lu Jin nodded in satisfaction and took the two supreme-grade world rings to examine them.

"Huh? So many corpses of universe lords?"

As soon as the divine power seeped in, Lu Jin said with a look of surprise.

Inside one of the supreme treasure-level world rings, besides the Blood Sea Demon Armor and the corpse of the rampaging demon god spanning over 90,000 kilometers, there were also more than 800 corpses of cosmic lords, each ranging in size from thousands to tens of thousands of kilometers.

"Heavenly Emperor, many universe lords have gathered within the space of the black-patterned stone pillar."

The Lord of Shihua Island said solemnly.

There are sixteen black-patterned stone pillars in the space, and around each black-patterned stone pillar, there are many universe lords tempering their will.

The number of cosmic lords gathered in the entire space is far more than eight hundred.
Once the Supreme Domain was activated, all the universe lords of the first and second reincarnation eras who possessed souls, except for a few who fled when things went wrong, were wiped out in one fell swoop.

Of course, there were originally many more, but some of them possessed the secret technique of creating clones and self-destructed after entering the supreme domain.

Lu Jin: "."

"Well done. Inform Chiguo and the others that the hunt for the Lord of the Universe can be stopped."

Lu Jin gave a word of praise.

The more than eight hundred corpses of universe masters are enough to allow all the top universe overlord-level heavenly generals in the Heavenly God Temple to step into the realm of universe masters, and may even add nearly a hundred more spacetime law godheads.

The Lord of Shihua Island completed the task he was given very quickly and excellently, which is commendable.

award?

The reward has already been given; the Blood Sea Set is already given, so there's no need to give it again.

"Yes, Heavenly Emperor."

The Lord of Shihua Island bowed in response.

After the Lord of the Primordial Island left, Lu Jin stuffed the corpses of the rampaging demon god and many universe lords into the Demon Refining Pot to decompose them, obtaining a True God-level Law Godhead, dozens of Fusion Law Godheads, and nearly eight hundred Spacetime Law Godheads.

As for the Blood Sea Demon Armor, I'll keep it for myself.

It is, after all, a supreme treasure armor of the Void True God level, with a higher upper limit than the World-Destroying God Armor transformed from the World-Destroying Lotus.

Subsequently, Lu Jin summoned Zi Zhenfeng and gave him more than seven hundred spacetime law divine sparks, which were then handed over to the top cosmic overlord-level heavenly generals in the Heavenly God Palace for refinement.

After this batch of spacetime law deities was distributed, all the Earthlings and natives of the Qiankun Realm who had voluntarily become his soul servants became masters of the universe.

The 'Old World Lord' who voluntarily became his soul servant, as well as the native humans he took in the Blood Luo World, are now all cosmic overlords, and a large portion of them have become star sector guardians under the Heavenly Court, guarding a region of territory.

As for those alien servants, their status and strength were quite different; they were merely high-level managers in the Mountain and Sea Realm, but they had all become Universe Venerables.

All celestial generals will ascend to the position of rulers of the universe, and the overall strength of the Heavenly Court will increase.

In the future, the Heavenly Court will further increase the requirements for the strength of its heavenly soldiers and generals.

The Heavenly Generals of the Heavenly Court can only be appointed by the Lord of the Universe in the future.

Even the most powerful cosmic overlords will only be celestial soldiers in the future.

True Gods and Heavenly Kings, Lords of the Universe and Heavenly Generals, Venerable Ones of the Universe and Heavenly Soldiers—this will become the standard for the future Heavenly Court.

As for immortal gods?

The Heavenly God Temple will no longer recruit Immortal Heavenly Soldiers. All existing Immortal Heavenly Soldiers will be nurtured into cosmic overlords by Lu Jin using high-level Law Godheads and high-level Law Beads of the Three Profound Mysteries level.

Within the world of Jin, life becomes immortal upon reaching adulthood. The Universe Venerable is merely an ordinary tribal warrior, and the Universe Lord is simply a powerful warrior within the tribe.

Surely the future Heavenly Court can't be inferior to the 'native tribes' of the Jin world?
Decades later, the cosmic sea.

"Shh!"

A figure clad in battle armor, with two pairs of silver wings unfurled on its back, teleported continuously toward the Peak Realm.

'I wonder if the Cosmic Sea has the third pair of wing components for the Wu-Slaying Wings.'

Luo Feng thought to himself.

After obtaining the second pair of 'Radiant Wings' and comprehending the secret runes of the wings, Luo Feng discovered that even with all four wings, the Slaying Wu Wings were still incomplete; there was at least a third pair of wing parts.

The single Wu-killing Wings and the Flowing Light Wings are just ordinary treasures.

However, the combined four-winged Wu-killing wings became a top-tier treasure.

Luo Feng had never heard of such a significant boost to the set effect.

If we could find a third component, it might surpass the level of a peak treasure and become the strongest treasure directly, right?

Luo Feng believed that the complete Killing Wu Wings were at least as powerful as a supreme treasure, otherwise the set effect would not be so outrageous.

Over the years, he has searched through all the well-known powerful beings in the primordial universe who possess winged treasures, but to no avail.

With his wife Xu Xin burdened with huge debts, Luo Feng decided to try his luck at Qingfeng Realm, one of the three forbidden lands of the Cosmic Sea.

Even if I can't find the third part of the Wu-killing Wings, I should still collect more treasures to pay off my debts and grow stronger in battles against powerful beings in the Cosmic Sea.

A week later, based on the map, Luo Feng arrived outside the Qingfeng Boundary.

"What a huge mountain!"

Looking at the towering, imposing mountain peak in the far distance, whose summit was abruptly cut off, Luo Feng couldn't help but sigh.

Suddenly, Luo Feng frowned slightly.

In the far distance, within the Qingfeng Realm, a figure flew out through the air.

Its figure was extremely tall, its divine body towering for millions of kilometers, clad in gray armor, and nearly humanoid, with a single eye on its enormous head.

'The master of Heng'ao?'

Luo Feng raised an eyebrow, recognizing the other party's origin.

Lord of Yuan'ao, a special life form, is the ruler of the primordial universe's 'Yuan'ao Secret Realm'. According to the intelligence collected by the human race, he possesses the strength of a top-tier fourth-order universe lord.

'The recently renowned Daohe Venerable of the Human Race?'

As a spy servant, Lord Yuan'ao had specifically gathered intelligence on various forces in the primordial universe.

He had naturally heard that the Human Race's Daohe Venerable had single-handedly killed the Lord of the Qingfu of the Universal Alliance within the Primordial Star.

"Humanity is powerful in the primordial universe. Why not pretend to fight a major battle and leave Venerable Daohe here? Human powerhouses will likely come to investigate later."

Then I'll be forced to hand over the silk-threading diagram, and wouldn't that allow me to complete the task my master assigned me?

Recalling the task entrusted to him by his master, King Zhenjia, Lord Yuanao thought to himself.

King Zhenjia, one of the Beastmen's servants, is also the mastermind behind the Giant Axe's fall in the Dark Land in the original story.

Recognizing the Lord of Yuan'ao, Luo Feng paid no attention and continued to teleport towards the Qingfeng Realm.

The Lord of Yuan'ao is a solitary universe lord in the primordial universe. He has not joined the Universal Alliance and, from a standpoint, is not an enemy of humanity.

Although intelligence indicated that his opponent was stronger than him, Luo Feng was not afraid.

The Star Tower's defenses are so formidable that even a true god couldn't break through them, let alone the Lord of Yuan'ao.

Before long, Luo Feng and the Lord of Yuan Ao passed each other from a great distance.

But at that moment, the Lord of Yuan Ao changed his teleportation direction and teleported directly to a spot not far from Luo Feng.

The next moment, endless crimson-gold radiance spread, and golden flames instantly enveloped an area of ​​dozens of light-years. It was the Lord of Yuan'ao who activated the top-level domain treasure, the 'Flame Sand Cup'.

"Wow—"

"Lord of Yuan'ao, do you intend to become an enemy of my human race?"

Luo Feng, activating the second form of the Wu-Slaying Wings, 'Golden Kingdom,' amidst endless golden light, barely managed to open a golden flame domain and roared.

Luo Feng couldn't understand why the Lord of Yuan'ao, a universe lord with no background, dared to attack him. Wasn't he afraid of being hunted down by human powerhouses?

"This winged treasure can be used as a top-tier domain treasure? That's lucky!"

Lord Kagaku praised him briefly, but didn't pay much attention to it.

As the master of the universe, while the other party was merely a cosmic venerable, even though the Flame Sand Cup was not a top-grade domain treasure, he still held the upper hand in the domain confrontation.
