Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

“Rumble!!——”

In the void, deafening echoes spread, turning all the stars and meteorites within tens of thousands of light-years into dust.

Under the remote control of the City Lord of Chaos' divine power, the dark golden chains displayed ever-changing forms, sometimes transforming into long whips, batons, and maces.

They relentlessly attacked the pyramid-shaped temple from all directions in the starry sky.

At the same time.

The aftershocks from the attacks of the supreme treasures spread, devastating the starry sky, making it difficult for even ordinary universe lords to resist.

Despite this, the twelve alien universe lords in the Void Temple were all doing their best to resist.

Surging divine power, bloodshot eyes… all showed that they were fighting desperately.

There was no other way.

If they did not resist, the only outcome awaiting them would be death.

Because that chain was too powerful, it was simply not something their small arms and legs could withstand.

As for counterattacking with the power of the Void Temple, they were even less able to do so.

The reason was simple.

If they consumed too much of their accumulated power and divine power in counterattacking, they probably wouldn't last until reinforcements arrived.

Right now, they could only use the limited divine power they could expend to fight against these human universe lords and the Void Chain that could determine life and death.

“It's probably just a few more days, and the Queen will come here to rescue us,” the twelve universe lords silently hoped as they worked to maintain the temple's defenses.

“Rumble!!——”

Only the sound of mountains collapsing and tsunamis sweeping in from all directions could be heard, and the entire Void Temple suddenly felt much heavier.

They looked up at the same time, their hearts filled with indescribable horror.

It turned out that countless treasures exuding a chilling aura, like a rushing river, were surging towards the periphery of the pyramid-shaped Void Temple.

They continuously washed over the Void Temple, bringing immense pressure to those inside.

“What is this!? The City Lord of Chaos' Thousand Treasure River!?”

An alien universe lord exclaimed in horror.

A pair of large eyes looked at the huge treasures exuding a chilling aura, their eyes filled with confusion.

“Why does this Thousand Treasure River feel so much stronger than before!?”

“I feel it too, the previous Thousand Treasure River didn't have such a powerful pressure, could it be that the City Lord of Chaos strengthened it again!?”

“I don't know… anyway, I feel that things are not simple, everyone must be careful.”

“……”

After a brief and hurried exchange, the twelve universe lords once again decided to be shrinking turtles.

No matter how the City Lord of Chaos attacked, they would not go out.

Their main strategy was to defend without attacking!

The truth was indeed so.

Because among the treasures given by Lin Ye, the City Lord of Chaos specifically selected some higher-level treasures to add to the Thousand Treasure River, greatly increasing its power and damage.

At the same time.

Not only did the City Lord of Chaos use his Thousand Treasure River, but the other universe lords also displayed all their treasures in a flurry.

It could be said that the Eight Immortals crossed the sea, each showing their unique abilities, and none of the universe lords were hiding anything, but instead went all out to attack the Void Temple.

“Rumble!!——”

“Rumble!!——”

“Rumble!!——”

“……”

Waves of world-destroying power instantly filled the vast space of hundreds of millions of kilometers around.

These violent powers directly shattered time and space into countless streams of particles… continuously impacting the defenses of the Void Temple.

In an instant, the speed at which this supreme treasure pyramid temple consumed divine power suddenly increased several times.

“This feels bad!”

“The attacks of these universe lords are too strong, how can there be such powerful universe lords!?”

One by one, the universe lords looked out through the walls of the Void Temple, and when their eyes clearly touched the outside world, they couldn't help but shrink.

The outside void was completely shattered.

The vast and terrifying power that emanated made them extremely fearful even through the Void Temple.

“They're all crazy! Completely crazy!”

“Is it really okay for them to attack our Void Temple so recklessly!?”

“We have so many Void Temples, why are they only attacking us? Could it be that they know that there isn't a universe supreme master stationed here, and they're pinching our soft persimmon?”

A universe lord looked at the outside with a gloomy and suspicious expression, seemingly muttering to himself: “That seems… unlikely!”

“It shouldn't be possible, because there aren't any spies or undercover agents from the human race among us, so we can directly rule out this option.”

The twelve universe lords: “……”

“In the end, they still have the virtual universe network left by the old monster Primal Ancestor, which can almost cover the entire original universe, so they must have some means to detect it.”

“Not only that, but the human race has also produced a Thousand Tribulation Lord who can fight against and kill powerful existences like 'Heavenly Prison Venerable', which has really brought too much trouble to our attack.”

“Yes, not only has the entire race encountered trouble, but even we few are trapped here, encountering a life-and-death crisis!!”

These universe lords were all pieced together from the five peak races, and they didn't originally belong to the same race but were forcibly gathered together.

Therefore, there were still many gaps in cooperation, with most of them being the uncooperative type.

But… now that they were in a life-or-death crisis, no matter what problems or contradictions they had before, they wouldn't joke with their lives.

After all, once they left this Void Temple, most of them would be fish on the chopping board, able to be slaughtered by the City Lord of Chaos and the others at will.

You must know that most of these twelve universe lords were not very strong, and it would already be very remarkable if they had the strength to rival the Void Gold Lord.

Not to mention… there was still a dark golden chain of the same level as the pyramid temple in the outside void.

“Why doesn't… someone first use a divine power clone to test the waters and see how strong these human universe lords are!?”

A universe lord muttered in a low voice, obviously lacking confidence.

“……”

In the temple, the other companions did not answer.

Except for the strongest one, he glared at the universe lord who spoke and said directly: “I suggest you split off a wisp of divine power to test the waters, so that everyone can have a little more confidence.”

“Agreed!”

“I also agree!”

“Me too!”

“……”

In unanimous agreement, these universe lords all looked at this 'companion' who had spoken first, their eyes filled with wild anticipation.

“My strength is very… very weak, why don't we… just forget it!”

He said weakly, but what greeted him were fierce, jackal-like gazes.

“Do it!”

Being stared at by everyone made him feel a little frightened, and in the end, this universe lord gritted his teeth and directly accepted this deadly task.

Who told him to be the first to make the suggestion? He would never do it again in the future.

“Next, everyone, watch carefully. The divine power clone I condense has about one or two tenths of my main body's power. I think there won't be any problem going out to test the treasure formations of the City Lord of Chaos and the others.”

“Okay!” x11.

Hearing the words of this universe lord, the other partners all nodded lightly, expressing their approval.

Their expressions all showed that they were somewhat relaxed.

The reason was simple.

With him taking action this time, the remaining people would be able to smoothly avoid this calamity.

As for the person taking action… they wouldn't have any pity, the five peak races were originally a temporary team.

In countless past years, they had all been competing against each other, fighting to the death.

Now they were only gathered together for a unified goal, so naturally they couldn't have much deep feelings and cooperation.

It would already be a blessing if they didn't stab each other in the back!

“Buzz buzz buzz!!”

As this universe lord's divine power surged, a hazy shadow was rapidly condensing beside him, and then quickly taking shape.

Before long, a universe lord who looked exactly like him appeared before the eyes of the many universe lords.

Except for the aura being slightly weaker than the main body, almost everything else was completely the same.

If there wasn't a universe lord who was proficient in detection, they definitely wouldn't have discovered that this was still a divine power clone!

“Well done, **Lord!” A universe lord stood up from his formation, excitedly said.

“You are our hope, we're counting on you now!”

“Okay, I'll go try!” This universe lord, who had spent one and a half tenths of his divine power to condense a clone, nodded lightly,

Then, he stretched out his right hand and pointed straight at the newly condensed clone, a ray of light passed from his finger and reached the latter's brow, transmitting a message:

“Go!”

With just a transmission of thought, this divine power clone immediately set off into the starry sky.

……

“Boom!!”

The universe lord-level divine power clone, wrapped in an ordinary supreme treasure armor, felt an unprecedented sense of restraint and pressure as soon as it left the temple.

Even the divine power in his body was sealed, and the supreme treasure armor on the surface of his body cracked layer by layer under the invisible pressure, like fragments falling off the surface of a statue, scattering like clouds and smoke.

“Crack!!”

The not-so-crisp cracking sound was very clearly heard by all the universe lords.

As far as the eye could see, a universe lord had just walked out of the Void Temple when he was targeted by the elusive dark golden chain.

From appearance to piercing through his divine body, it took less than a breath.

Then this thick, sky-supporting pillar-like

Seeing the divine power clone that had been completely annihilated into dust, all the universe lords in the palace fell silent with fear.

This was really too terrifying!

Even a divine power clone probably had one or two tenths of that universe lord's combat power, but it was directly killed after just one trip out, which was enough to show how powerful and terrifying the supreme treasure formations outside were.

If it were their main bodies who went out, they would probably not be able to last a few rounds before being killed.

“……”

“Everyone, what should we do? Are we just going to surrender?” The universe lord who had lost a lot of divine power just now asked with a pale face and an extremely weak tone: “Could it be… that we are really going to be buried here!”

“If it weren't for that dark golden giant chain, the power of their other supreme treasures wouldn't be able to match our Void Temple even if we fought head-on!!”

A female universe lord wearing a purplish-red robe and covered with long red hair said: “If our Void Temple is so easily annihilated, then wouldn't all the plans of the progenitors be in vain!?”

……

The universe lord squad led by the City Lord of Chaos was attacking the Void Temple and the universe lords inside according to plan, slowly eroding their energy and patience.

Everything was in order.

But in another place, the situation was not so optimistic.

In the distant outer domain battlefield.

The Lord of Ghost Flames, as the squad leader, encountered big trouble when facing the Void Temple.

Although he had experts like the Void Gold Lord and the Lord of Nether Marquis under his command, and even a large pile of various powerful supreme treasures, he still couldn't achieve much effect.

On the contrary, the attack was somewhat hindered.

There was no other way.

Because this squad was unlucky, they directly encountered the Mechanical Race Father God who was controlling the Void Temple.

The Void Temple, presided over by a universe supreme master, was completely on two different levels in terms of power, with a world of difference.

Fortunately, Lin Ye had already prepared for this situation at the beginning of the discussion.

Speaking of which, the method was very simple, that was—

Each squad carried a divine power clone condensed by Lin Ye, with a strength roughly equivalent to four or five tenths of his.

Although it couldn't compare to Lin Ye at full strength, and didn't have any supreme treasures, this divine power clone was still extremely powerful.

At least, it was several times stronger than the City Lord of Chaos at full strength.

“Since the Demon Ancestor of Shock is here, then let's kill this demon ancestor's leader first, and then deal with the temple.”

“If not, we can attack head-on, consume its divine power energy as quickly as possible, and I will lurk in the dark, waiting for this old bastard, the Demon Ancestor of Shock, to come out.”

Lin Ye's clone transmitted a message in secret, because in his opinion, the threat of this universe supreme master was even greater than the Void Temple.

Only by killing or severely injuring these universe supreme masters would the subsequent battle be simpler.

If it really didn't work, Lin Ye had also prepared the most extreme plan—divine power clone self-destruction!

In his estimation, even if the divine power self-destruction of this clone couldn't completely kill the Demon Ancestor of Shock, there was still a very good chance of blowing up more than 80% of his divine body.

The premise was that he walked out of the tortoise shell of the Void Temple's protection.

“I agree to attack head-on and force the Demon Ancestor of Shock to come out and fight.”

After receiving Lin Ye's message, the Lord of Ghost Flames ordered without hesitation.

“Okay!”

“Kill!”

As the Universe Masters of the human race, their coordination had become incredibly refined through countless years of practice.

Therefore, their offensive rhythm was remarkably consistent!

Outside the grand formation centered around the massive dark golden chains, the Universe Masters of the human race used all their abilities, launching attacks without reservation.

"Go!"

The Ghost Flame Master also transformed back into his three-headed, six-armed form… arcs of saber light flew from his body, containing immense killing intent.

The towering and majestic Void Gold Master's long hair fluttered as he unleashed the full power of his treasures, his usually amiable face now filled with ferocity.

The other Universe Masters were the same, unleashing their most powerful attacks without holding back…
