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

Lin Yuan did not answer, his figure vanished like a ghost, and reappeared behind the Iron Bone Venerable.

"Flame Light Strike!"

The Crimson Meteorite Spear's spear light transformed into a beam as thin as a hair, piercing straight into the back of the Iron Bone Venerable.

"clang!"

The beam of light struck the metal casing, producing a crisp impact sound.

The power of this attack exceeded the defensive limit of the top-tier armor worn by the Iron Bone Venerable, causing his divine body to be directly damaged by nine percent.

"Such strong penetrating power!" Iron Bone Venerable was shocked.

Knowing he could no longer passively endure the beating, he immediately roared, and golden light shone brightly from his body.

"Iron Crystal Domain, open!"

Centered on him, the temperature within a radius of millions of kilometers plummeted, and countless metal particles condensed from the void, forming a metal storm.

This is the Iron Crystal Clan's innate secret technique, used by a high-level Venerable. Even if it's not as effective as a top-tier domain-type treasure, it's not far off, and it can also play a significant suppressive role in an environment like the Primordial Star.

"A trivial skill."

With a thought, Lin Yuan unleashed the full power of the Myriad Streams Flame Light Realm.

"Buzz!"

A pale red light curtain instantly covered the metal storm, and the flames collided with the metal particles, producing a piercing friction sound.

The two domains eroded each other. Although the Myriad Flow Flame Light Realm clearly had the upper hand, the opponent's Iron Crystal Realm did play a certain role, reducing Lin Yuan's domain suppression power by at least half a percent.

"There's a chance!" Hope flashed in the eyes of the Iron Bone Venerable.

His metallic outer shell began to deform, transforming into countless sharp metal spikes.

"The Thousand Crystals Shatter!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"

Millions of fine metal spikes rained down on Lin Yuan, each capable of easily blasting apart a star.

Faced with this overwhelming attack, Lin Yuan simply shook his head slightly.

"Too slow."

With his flowing wings unfurling behind him, he moved freely through the endless net of metal spikes, effortlessly dodging all attacks as if strolling through a garden.

"This is impossible!" The Iron Bone Venerable was utterly desperate.

His strongest attack was so easily neutralized by his opponent.

Just then, Venerable Yan Yue and Lawrence had also dealt with another high-ranking Venerable of the Iron Crystal Clan and were closing in on them.

Three against one.

The Iron-Bone Venerable knew that he was doomed to die today.

"Humans..." A resolute glint flashed in his eyes, "Even if I die, I will make you pay the price!"

The divine body burned wildly, just a hair's breadth away from igniting all the remaining divine power.

"Trying to self-destruct? Did you even ask me?"

Suddenly, Lin Yuan's voice rang in his mind.

The next moment, a soul impact ten times stronger than before slammed into the Iron Bone Venerable's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Soul-Slaying Storm!"

This is a new move created by Lin Yuan by combining the Soul-Slaying Blade and the Soul Storm. It is also one of the strongest tiers among the peak secret techniques, and is specifically designed to target opponents who want to self-destruct.

"ah--"

The Iron Bone Venerable let out a piercing scream as the process of burning his divine body was forcibly interrupted, and his consciousness fell into chaos.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Venerable Flame Moon's Blood Flame Spear pierced through his chest.

"Flaming Phoenix Burns the Heavens!"

A burst of intense flame erupted from the tip of the spear, instantly spreading throughout the Iron Bone Venerable's entire body.

Before he could even catch his breath, Lawrence's Sky-Splitting Sword arrived.

"Breaking Through the Void, Severing the Boundary!"

……

"No...no..."

In a desperate roar, the Ironbone Venerable's divine body was completely obliterated by the three's relentless attacks, leaving only a world ring and a few treasures.

The battle is over.

"Gather the spoils and leave immediately." Venerable Yan Yue sheathed his Blood Flame Spear and warily scanned his surroundings. "The clash of domains just now was too loud; it must have already attracted the attention of other powerful figures."

Lawrence quickly collected the spoils, and the three of them transformed into streaks of light, flying towards the depths of the glacier.

Less than five minutes after they left, several figures appeared in the sky above the battlefield.

Most of them were Venerables from the Northern Frontier Alliance. They were afraid of being hunted if they were alone, so they prepared to leave this area as a group.

Of course, there are also powerful figures from other forces among them, but they are all from neutral groups. The powerful figures from the six top races would not come together at this critical juncture.

"It's the Iron Bone Venerable of the Iron Crystal Clan." A Venerable from the Northern Frontier Alliance recognized the lingering aura. "He actually fell too..."

"This human squad is terrifying." Another Venerable said with a solemn expression, "Although Venerable Ironbone didn't have a supreme treasure armor to protect him, his race is naturally incredibly resilient. With his strength combined with top-tier heavy treasure armor, his defense is not much different from theirs, but even so, he didn't last a minute..."

"It seems that Venerable Silverblade was right. Without the strength of a cosmic overlord, encountering them is simply suicide."

"Let's leave; we can't stay in this area."

……

At this moment, Lin Yuan and his two companions were already hundreds of millions of kilometers away.

In a secluded ice cave, the three of them tallied up their spoils.

"As expected of the Iron Crystal Clan, which ranks among the top vassal races of the Mechanical Clan, they have a lot of treasures."

Looking at the spoils before him, Venerable Yan Yue's eyes gleamed: "An ordinary treasure armor, a top-tier soul-type treasure, several ordinary treasures, and the clan's reward for killing them, the total value exceeds 5 treasure points."

Lawrence examined the Iron Rock Venerable's World Ring closely: "There are still many good things inside, especially these metal materials. Many of them are the main materials for refining powerful treasures. Bringing them back to our clan can also be exchanged for a lot of treasure points."

Lin Yuan, on the other hand, seemed to be deep in thought.

His battle with Venerable Iron Rock had given him a clearer understanding of his own strength.

"His physical defense was probably close to that of an ordinary supreme treasure armor, but I was able to break through it easily. According to my teacher, my physical attack has reached the middle level of a cosmic overlord."

He thought to himself, "With the Myriad Flowing Flame Light Realm and the Flowing Light Wings, in the environment of the Primordial Star, hunting down some newly ascended cosmic overlords shouldn't be a problem."

Those who can break through to become cosmic overlords are all extraordinary. They either created ultimate secret techniques or have extremely high genetic levels. Therefore, regardless of whether they came from a weak or powerful race, at this stage, the only way to determine the winner is to see who is more well-rounded.

Those with high genetic levels, who have created their own ultimate secret techniques, and who possess an advantage in the quality and quantity of their treasures, are naturally the strongest in terms of combat power.

Lin Yuan currently meets two of the conditions, so he can still take down some overlords who haven't acquired all the supreme treasures.

"Junior brother, what are you thinking about?" Venerable Yan Yue noticed his distraction.

Lin Yuan snapped out of his reverie and chuckled, "It's nothing, just thinking about our next plan. The Northern Frontier Alliance should be on alert by now, so it won't be easy for us to hunt them down as easily as before."

Lawrence nodded: "Indeed, they either have to withdraw or unite. Either way, it's not good for us."

"Then let's go somewhere else!" Venerable Yan Yue said decisively. "There are over ten thousand Primal Stars; we don't need to fight them to the death here. Besides..."

A sly glint flashed in her eyes: "I received messages from several old friends that there are signs that a supreme treasure is about to be born on the original star numbered 3758, which has already attracted many powerful individuals. The place is currently a mixed bag, which is a good opportunity for us to fish in troubled waters."

"A supreme treasure has been born?" Lin Yuan and Lawrence looked at her at the same time.

"Yes, and it's not an ordinary treasure." Venerable Yan Yue lowered his voice. "It's said to be a palace-type treasure, currently still in the process of being developed, and it's at least of a high level."

Lin Yuan's heart stirred.

Palace-type treasures have powerful sealing effects, especially the higher-level ones, which are extremely effective on the original planet.

If he could obtain one, his strength would leap forward once again, and he could also use it as cover for the use of the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron.

"When?" he asked.

"It should be born in about two hundred years," said Venerable Yan Yue. "It will take us time to get there. Why don't we rest for a few more days before setting off?"

"Okay." Lin Yuan and Lawrence nodded at the same time.

……

The Red Crow Heng Galaxy, Earth, China, Huangcun.

The sky was clear as usual, and the villagers were busy with their own tasks. A villager named Yu Baosheng was carrying a hoe and walking along the ridge of the field.

Suddenly, an ominous purple ripple appeared in the space above his head, and a figure with mechanical wings on its back and heavy smoky makeup stepped out from it.

"Wow, so big!" Yu Baosheng's gaze was drawn to the sudden appearance of evil, and he couldn't help but swallow.

"Wow, this village looks quite vibrant."

Morgana licked her lips, ignoring Yu Baosheng's offensive gaze, and patted his shoulder: "Ato, long time no see."

"I'm not Ato, my name is Yu Baosheng."

"I know, but it'll be over soon." Morgana smiled nonchalantly, dark purple-black energy swirling around her fingertips.

Just as it was about to touch Yu Baosheng—

"Buzz—!"

Several blazing golden sword lights tore through the air, striking precisely between Morgana and Yu Baosheng, forcibly dispersing the purplish-black energy.

Yu Baosheng was thrown to the ground by the shockwave, staring in horror at the sudden change before his eyes.

In the sky, several female angels with silver armor, red skirts, and pure white wings on their backs stood suspended in the air, the leader of whom was Angel Leng.

She held a flaming sword, her heroic face filled with coldness and murderous intent.

"Morgana!" The angel's cold voice echoed across Huang Village, "Put away your disgusting, depraved tricks! The righteous judgment of the Heavenly Court of Merlo has arrived today!"

Morgana was taken aback at first, then burst into exaggerated laughter: "Hahaha! Who do we have here? It's you, you little bitch!"

"What, that bitch Keisha doesn't dare come herself, so she sends you few lackeys to die?"

She looked Leng up and down, along with the angels behind her, her tone full of disdain: "You think you can judge me? You weren't even born when I was chasing that bitch Keisha all over the universe."

"How dare you distort the truth and insult Queen Keisha!" The angel's cold eyes flashed, and without further ado, she declared, "Sisters, execute the judgment!"

"For justice!"

Several angels instantly formed a battle formation, transforming into several streaks of light that attacked Morgana from different directions.

The flaming sword, imbued with holy flames that purify evil, weaves a web of destruction.

Morgana initially seemed to be joking, raising her hand as if to swat them away like flies.

However, when the first flaming sword collided with her hastily formed dark energy shield—

"boom!"

The violent explosion sent Morgana flying backward dozens of meters, and tiny cracks appeared on her shield.

"Damn it!" Morgana's contempt vanished instantly, replaced by astonishment. "What's going on? What did you little bitches eat? The power is off!"

She clearly sensed that the power of these angel warriors and their efficiency in utilizing dark energy far exceeded her understanding of "high-ranking guardian angels".

Their dark energy seemed to contain a high-level energy characteristic that she couldn't comprehend, making their attacks more penetrating and destructive.

"Clang!"

Another sword slashed down, and Morgana hurriedly blocked it. The clang of metal clashing made her arm go numb.

"Damn it! Is this the power a second-generation angel should have?" Morgana cursed angrily as she dodged attacks from all directions. "That bitch Keisha upgraded all of you? No! Even a third-generation angel wouldn't have this much power!"

The battle instantly intensified.

The angels chased Morgana into a deserted mountainous area, where energy surged, and holy flames and purplish-black energy collided and annihilated each other.

Although Morgana temporarily held on thanks to her powerful fourth-generation divine body and rich combat experience, she was completely suppressed by the coordinated attack of the Angel Cold Squad. She could only keep dodging, with profanities and exclamations flying at the same time.

"Bitch!"

"Damn! A sneak attack!"

"Are you guys all cheating?!"
