Swallowing the Stars: The cheat system only comes when I'm almost a god?

Not long after, on the edge of the demon race's territory, in a hidden part of the starry sky.

Three figures emerged from the void; they were none other than Venerable Jiaoyun, Venerable Mengmo, and Venerable Xiaoyan.

"It's a success?" Venerable Jiaoyun looked at Venerable Mengmo, his eyes filled with anticipation.

After a moment of silence, the Dream Demon Venerable shook his head: "We didn't succeed."

His voice was hoarse: "My soul attack did hit him, but it was blocked by something."

Venerable Jiaoyun frowned: "Blocked it? With your soul cultivation, how could an Immortal King possibly block it?"

"It's not his own power," the Dream Demon Venerable said slowly. "I feel that he should have a supreme treasure of the soul defense type, because my attack couldn't penetrate it at all."

"A supreme treasure? And a soul-type one at that?" Venerable Jiaoyun asked incredulously. "He's just a King-level Immortal. Even if Venerable Yanyue adores him, she wouldn't give him a soul-type supreme treasure, would she? Besides, Venerable Yanyue herself hasn't been at the breakthrough stage for very long. She might not even have a treasure of this level."

Venerable Xiaoyan interjected, "Perhaps it was his own good fortune. The universe is vast, and there are always some lucky ones who can obtain heaven-defying opportunities. I remember that 30,000 epochs ago, didn't the Machine Race have a King who accidentally obtained a fragmented domain-type treasure in a secret realm?"

The Dream Demon Venerable nodded: "Xiao Yan is right. The information returned by my soul attack is indeed like that."

If it were just a soul-type treasure, my attack would at least have some effect, but the one I just attacked didn't even make a sound.

Only a supreme-grade defense could withstand such a perfect attack.

After a moment of silence, Venerable Jiaoyun finally accepted the explanation.

"That kid got off easy!" he said bitterly. "But at least I was able to destroy one of his main battle clones, which is enough to give back to the clan. It will take him a lot of time and resources to recreate that clone."

Venerable Xiaoyan laughed and said, "At least we destroyed that divine kingdom teleportation point and also killed three kings of virtual universe companies. This operation wasn't a loss."

"Let's go back and report." Venerable Jiaoyun took one last look in the direction of the human territory, a trace of unwillingness flashing in his dragon eyes, but in the end he turned around, tore open space, and disappeared into the dark universe.

The Dream Demon Venerable and the Xiaoyan Venerable followed closely behind.

After the three demon lords disappeared, the starry sky returned to silence.

……

The primordial universe, Chaos City.

On the rooftop of his cultivation residence, Lin Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were calm, but a cold glint flashed deep within them.

"Is this how you play games..." Lin Yuan muttered to himself, "I've been keeping such a low profile, and you guys still want to cause trouble."

The three Venerable Ones joined forces, one of whom was a true cosmic overlord; their intention was to completely annihilate him.

"Jiaoyun Venerable... Dream Demon Venerable... Xiaoyan Venerable..." Lin Yuan silently memorized these three names.

He originally planned to continue cultivating in a low-key manner, and only go out to contribute to the human race after breaking through to the Universe Venerable realm. But now it seems that those guys from the other three peak races can't wait.

"Since you don't want me to cultivate in peace, then I don't need to endure it anymore."

……

At the same time, on the second battlefield outside the region, at the No. 058 military base.

An elderly man with gray hair slowly opened his eyes. He was wearing ordinary silver-white armor and his aura was only at the initial stage of King-level. He was not conspicuous in the 058 military base, where King-level experts were concentrated.

But at that moment, a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes, a glint that did not match his outward appearance.

"The demon race...is good at bullying the weak, isn't it? Then don't blame me for going out and bullying your little brats!" The old man muttered to himself, a smile curving his lips.

He stood up, straightened his armor, and then walked towards the exit of the barracks base.

The immortal deity in charge of base affairs bowed respectfully upon seeing the old man: "King Moyun, are you going out on another mission?"

"Hmm." The old man, known as King Moyun, nodded, his voice hoarse: "I've been in the base for decades, time to stretch my muscles."

"May you have great success in your military campaigns."

Mo Yunwang smiled and stepped out of the base.

His figure flickered a few times in the starry sky before disappearing.

……

The Senluo Sea is not a true ocean, but a vast and boundless strange star field filled with chaotic energy storms.

The spatial structure here is extremely unstable, with energy turbulence surging and colliding like the ocean, forming all sorts of bizarre vortices and storm belts. It is one of the most dangerous places in the Second Battlefield, and also an area where powerful kings like to go on adventures and hunt.

Mo Yunwang's figure moved silently through the dark universe, a cold flame burning deep within his eyes.

Although the attack by the three demon race universe venerables, including Venerable Jiaoyun, did not truly damage his core, the blatant bullying of the weak by the strong completely ignited the anger in his heart.

Yes, the Mo Yun King before us is Lin Yuan's true Yan God Clan clone. After the Divine General inheritance ended, he sent him to the Second Battlefield. The one who attended the Lava Venerable's banquet and perished was merely a divine power clone.

Lin Yuan already knew he was on the alien race's assassination list, so why would he ostentatiously attend a gathering in a public place?

Since he possesses a large divine body, as long as the total amount of divine power contained in his divine power clone is the same as that in his normal clone, others will basically not be able to tell the difference. This is also why Venerable Jiaoyun and the others did not find any great treasures at the scene after they killed Lin Yuan's clone.

"Demon race... Since you disregard the rules and send cosmic venerables or even overlords to hunt me down... then don't blame me for giving you a taste of your own medicine."

Lin Yuan sneered inwardly, "I can't touch the Universe Venerable for now, but those lone brats of your demon race should prepare to pay the price."

The search lasted for several days.

During this time, Lin Yuan also encountered several alien races that had been granted the title of Marquis, and even sensed energy collisions between those at the initial stage of the title of King, but he suppressed his desire to make a move.

Small fish and shrimp were not enough to quell his anger; he needed a sacrifice of sufficient weight.

Finally, near a relatively stable fragment of a continent, he locked onto a powerful aura.

She was a demon queen, hovering on a huge dark red rock platform, seemingly taking a rest.

Its shape is similar to a human, but it is more slender and elegant, about two meters tall. Behind it are a pair of wide wings that swirl with a blue halo. Each feather is like a piece of jade, but the edges gleam with a cold metallic light.

Her face was obscured by a light blue energy mask, making it impossible to see her features clearly, but her pupils were a dazzling gold, exuding an air of authority.

"Peacock Clan... Azure Wing King." Lin Yuan quickly retrieved relevant information from his memory.

The Peacock Clan is considered a mid-to-high-ranking lineage among the demon races, with a Universe Venerable overseeing them, but they are not one of the Sixteen Royal Clans or many royal clans.

This race is known for its speed and mastery of the fundamental laws of wind. Their divine bodies are generally small, similar to those of humans, which puts them at a disadvantage in head-on confrontations, but they excel at hit-and-run tactics and long-range attacks.

King Qingyi, a peak-level King, ranks among the top five among the current Kings of the Peacock Clan. He is known for his unpredictable "Azure Feather Illusionary Light Kill" and his outstanding escape ability in the Senluo Sea region. He has successfully hunted down Kings from other factions many times and has even escaped from the hands of Kings at the limit.

"It's you." Lin Yuan's eyes flashed even colder.

Without hesitation, Lin Yuan activated his mind and immediately located the coordinates of the Azure Wing King.

The next second, he silently merged into the spatial folds, and the bizarre and dazzling scenes of the dark universe flashed through his senses.

On a fragment of a continent thirty million kilometers away, the Azure Wing King hummed a little tune, appearing to be in a very good mood.

The news that "Chaos King Lin Yuan was killed by three Venerables in a joint attack" has spread through the demon race's intelligence system. Although only an avatar of the other party was killed, she still felt quite relieved that her old enemy had suffered a setback.

That's right, she was one of the twenty alien kings who chased down the Firewood Squad with her colleagues more than 500,000 years ago, only to be casually killed by Lin Yuan's Soul-Scattering Sand. The more unlucky Lin Yuan was, the happier she was.

"It's a pity that the Dream Demon Venerable couldn't destroy all of his clones through soul penetration." King Qingyi shook his head.

But just as her mind began to relax slightly—

hum!

Without warning, a thin crack appeared in the void less than a hundred meters to his side, and an elderly human with gray hair stepped out like a ghost.

"Who?" The Azure Wing King's pupils suddenly contracted, and his wings suddenly spread open, with countless azure-gold feathers about to shoot out.

However, it was too late.

Lin Yuan didn't waste any words, nor did he give his opponent any chance to react or ask for help.

At the moment of its appearance, a terrifying body vibration of 99.98 times erupted. The life gene level of the Yan God Clan clone, which was already as high as three thousand times, was now driven by a vibration of nearly one hundred times, and every bit of divine power burst out with earth-shattering power.

That wasn't enough. To ensure absolute success, Lin Yuan made a resolute decision and directly ignited his divine body.

boom!

The seemingly aged body transformed into a blazing human-shaped star, thrusting out a spear in its hand.

Fiery Dragon Break!

A dark red fire dragon, tens of thousands of miles long, roared and crashed into the Azure Wing King.

"No--!"

The opponent only had time to let out a shrill scream; all her defenses were now ridiculously weak.

Her divine body shattered and exploded. Although it quickly reformed, all her struggling movements ceased, and the violent energy fluctuations stopped abruptly. She lay quietly in the void.

Forced into sleep!

A demon king, known for his agility and unpredictability, was struck so hard that his divine body collapsed and his consciousness was forced into a deep sleep before he could even ask the enemy's name or send out a valid distress signal!

Before receiving the inheritance of the Blazing Cloud God General, Lin Yuan's strongest skill was the soul attack method he developed based on the Soul-Slaying Blade. He could quickly kill any strong person with a soul, even if they were at the limit of the King-Sealing Realm.

However, there is another downside: because his physical attack methods are average, when facing a powerful opponent of this level, he either has to destroy the opponent's soul or watch the opponent self-destruct.

However, there is another downside: because his physical attack methods are average, when facing a powerful opponent of this level, he either has to destroy the opponent's soul or watch the opponent self-destruct.

Both outcomes would result in the enemy's death, but would leave them with the hope of being resurrected by the ruler of their race's universe in the future; the Azure Wing King is a living example of this.

However, he had already transformed his clone into a member of the Yan God Clan. The improvement in his genetic level would naturally lead to an increase in his divine power. In addition, with the physical amplification inherited from the Divine General, Lin Yuan could now burn his divine power to unleash the Flame Dragon Break, and knock a powerful King-level expert who was not protected by any treasures into a deep sleep with a single blow. There was absolutely no problem with that.

Lin Yuan sheathed his spear, and the burning divine power quickly subsided. He reached out and grabbed the Azure Wing King's body along with the World Ring.

The battle was surprisingly brief, and the chaotic environment of the Senluo Sea provided cover. Although some powerful figures in the distance sensed the fluctuations and were surprised, none dared to approach and investigate immediately.

"The first one," Lin Yuan uttered in a low voice, without any emotional fluctuation.

"After we go back, we'll sell her to the intelligence department, and the demon race will lose this genius of the peacock clan forever."

"I'd like to see just how many king-level experts you have that I can kill!"
