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

Crystal Meteorite Secret Realm, Southeast Region.

In the void, three streaks of light pierced through the sea of ​​stars, eventually converging on a barren planet about three light-years away from Xuehua Star.

When the seventh squad, led by Bloodblade Venerable, arrived at the designated coordinates, the powerful members of the sixth and eighth squads were already waiting there.

"Blood Edge." A cheerful voice rang out. The speaker was a werewolf warrior who was over ten meters tall and covered in silver fur. He was none other than Venerable Jiufeng, the captain of the eighth squad.

Behind him stood two cosmic overlords and twenty human cosmic venerables, including Lawrence and Yan Yue, who were also going to participate in this operation.

"Jiufeng." Venerable Bloodblade nodded in response, then his gaze swept over the leader of the sixth squad, "Leiyu, you've arrived too."

Venerable Lei Yu, clad in dark purple armor with faint crackling lightning around him, said in a deep voice, "This operation is a crucial test of the Northern Frontier Alliance by our clan, and it cannot be lost. Our three teams must join forces and achieve a swift victory."

Xuehua Star is one of the three main stars of the Xue Luo Clan, and most of their powerful members are concentrated here. Therefore, in order to ensure the smooth operation, the human race's high-ranking officials directly sent the sixth and eighth squads, which were originally responsible for other areas, to join forces with Lin Yuan and his group.

After everyone gathered together, the three team leaders exchanged brief greetings and then got straight to the point.

Bloodblade Venerable spoke first: "According to my original plan, Light and Shadow should be responsible for sealing off Snow Flower Star, while Chaos and I should deal with the two overlords, Frost Night and Ink Cloud."

But now that the three teams are operating together, we need to revise our tactics.

He waved his hand to unfold the virtual star map, and the defensive layout of Xuehua Star was clearly displayed.

After careful examination, Venerable Jiufeng said, "Xuehua Star has two cosmic overlords, Shuangye and Moyun."

In addition, there are seventy-six Cosmic Venerables, including seventeen high-level, forty-two mid-level, and sixteen low-level, whose overall strength is not weak.

"But the equipment gap between our two sides is huge," Venerable Lei Yu interjected. "According to information from the intelligence department, Shuang Ye has an ordinary soul-type treasure, while Mo Yun uses a high-grade treasure weapon, but their armor is only at the ordinary treasure level."

"The vast majority of the other Venerables in the Snowfall Clan only possess top-tier heavy treasure armor. Some high-level Venerables might have ordinary supreme treasures for protection, but nearly half of our side have supreme treasure armor, which allows us to completely overwhelm them with equipment."

Blood Blade Venerable nodded: "If it were only the Seventh Squad, I would have had to resort to tactics due to the numerical disadvantage. But your addition has reversed the situation. Now that we have sufficient combat power, I think we should just launch a direct attack."

"A direct assault?" Lawrence frowned slightly. "Senior Brother Bloodblade, the enemy has two Overlords and over seventy Venerables. Even if their equipment is inferior to ours, their numerical advantage cannot be ignored."

"Number advantage?" Venerable Bloodblade laughed. "Their numerical advantage is nothing compared to our three teams."

He surveyed the crowd: "We have nine cosmic overlords here. You and Yan Yue are not far from breaking through, and you also have high-grade treasure armor protecting you. What can the enemy use to fight us?"

"More importantly," Venerable Jiufeng added, "Chaos and I are both Soul Masters, and with the dozen or so Illusionists in our team, we can focus fire and wipe out a large number of the enemy's low- to mid-level Venerables the moment the battle begins. In this way, we will have a numerical advantage."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes showed approval.

When you have a complete advantage in equipment and combat power, a direct assault is indeed the best option.

"I agree as well," Venerable Lei Yu stated. "However, we still need to guard against their escape. My suggestion is: the three overlords should be responsible for sealing off the space around Xuehua Star, while the other six overlords should lead the Venerable team in a frontal attack."

Bloodblade Venerable nodded: "Alright, then the sealing mission will be handed over to Light and Shadow, Radiant Star, and Golden Spear. You all possess domain-type treasures, which will allow you to seal off space while suppressing the opponent."

The Venerable Light and Shadow, the Venerable Shining Star, and the Venerable Golden Spear all agreed.

"We'll handle the frontal assault," Bloodblade Venerable continued, "We, the overlords, will deal with Frost Night and Ink Cloud, while the rest of you will find suitable opponents and quickly resolve the battle."

He turned to Lin Yuan: "Chaos, if you and Venerable Jiufeng join forces and use soul attacks after burning your divine power, how many Venerables could you possibly kill instantly?"

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment: "If the opponent only has ordinary soul-type treasures, under concentrated fire, even a low-level or mid-level Venerable shouldn't be able to withstand our combined attack. A high-level Venerable might be able to withstand one or two waves, but if we add the assistance of a dozen or so illusionists..."

"Thirty or more!"

Venerable Jiufeng said decisively, "We can kill at least thirty of their mid-to-low-level Venerables in an instant."

These words immediately put everyone present to a jolt of energy.

Nearly half of the troops were lost at the start of the war, which was devastating to morale.

"Then it's settled." Venerable Bloodblade made the decision. "Does anyone have anything to add?"

Venerable Starmark spoke up: "After all, the Snowfall Clan holds a significant position within the Northern Frontier Alliance. We must act swiftly. Once the news spreads, other powerful figures from the Northern Frontier Alliance may come to our aid."

"There's no need to worry about that," Venerable Lei Yu said coldly. "The higher-ups of the clan have already made arrangements. Five universe lords, including Lord Peng Gong, are stationed at the edge of the two secret realms. If the universe lords of the Northern Frontier Alliance dare to interfere, they will handle it."

No one raised any further objections.

"Set off!"

……

Xuehua Star is one of the three main stars of the Xueluo Clan in the Crystal Meteor Secret Realm.

The planet is about 120,000 kilometers in diameter, and its surface is covered with thick ice and snow. However, this is not entirely formed naturally. Most of it is formed from the power that Frost Night Venerable released during his cultivation, and it contains a bone-chilling cold.

Above the planet, dozens of palaces float, each inhabited by a powerful member of the Snowfall Clan.

Inside the largest palace in the center, Venerable Frost Night and Venerable Ink Cloud sat facing each other.

"Mo Yun, what are your thoughts on the future of our race?" Frost Night Venerable's voice was cold and clear. She wore silver-white armor, and her face was exquisite and beautiful but expressionless, like ice that had stood for millennia.

Venerable Moyun was a burly man who was over ten meters tall. He said in a deep voice, "Frosty Night, after the fall of our leader, our Snowfall Clan has lost its greatest support. In my opinion, it would be better to lead our people to migrate to a remote territory as soon as possible to avoid this place of trouble."

"Avoid?" Frost Night Venerable's eyes flashed with displeasure. "Our Snowfall Clan has been operating in the Crystalfall Secret Realm for billions of epochs. How can we just leave like that?"

"But if we don't leave, the four top clans will never let us go." Venerable Moyun sighed. "The Crystal Meteor Secret Realm and the Dark Current Abyss are rich in resources and are very close to their territories. In the past, we had a leader, so they gave us some face and didn't occupy the territories near the secret realm. But now, as you know..."

After a moment of silence, Venerable Frostnight finally said slowly, "Let's wait three more days. I'll discuss this with the other overlords. If there's still no news from Lord Liulan Star, then we'll..."

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly looked up, her eyes flashing with a cold light.

"not good!"

Almost simultaneously, Venerable Moyun also sensed the anomaly. He abruptly stood up, grabbed the Moyun Hammer, and exclaimed, "Powerful beings are arriving! Many of them!"

The two rushed out of the palace in an instant.

In the void outside Xuehua Star, three figures stood in a triangular formation, none other than the three overlords: Guangying, Yaoxing, and Jinge.

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

Three realm-specific treasures will be available simultaneously!

The Illusory Light Realm of the Light and Shadow Venerable transformed into a sky-filling curtain of light, covering an area of ​​tens of millions of kilometers; the Starry Flame River of the Shining Star Venerable sprinkled endless starlight; and the Golden Spear Venerable's Golden Falling Blade Realm transformed into countless golden blades, cutting through space.

With the three domains overlapping, the space surrounding Xuehua Star was completely sealed off.

"Enemy attack!"

"It's human!"

On Xuehua Star, seventy-six cosmic venerables soared into the sky, but when they felt the terrifying pressure of the three realms, their expressions changed drastically.

Frost Night Venerable's face was ashen. She looked towards another part of the void, where six figures were leading sixty human Venerables slowly approaching.

The one leading them was none other than Venerable Bloodblade.

Without wasting any words with the other side, he raised his hand and shouted, "Attack!"

In an instant, all the powerful humans simultaneously unleashed their divine power!

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

A terrifying aura swept across the starry sky, and the immense pressure converged into a tangible impact, causing large swathes of ice and snow on the surface of Xuehua Star to collapse.

"Snowfall Clan, prepare for battle!" Venerable Frost Night roared, an ice crystal longsword appearing in his hand.

Although the seventy-odd Snowfall Clan Venerables were terrified, they had no choice but to brace themselves and face them head-on.

However, just as the two sides were about to collide—

Lin Yuan and Venerable Jiufeng made their move at the same time.

"Soul-Slaying Storm - Ignite!"

"Spirit Wind Annihilates Gods - Ignite!"

The two Soul Masters unleashed their divine power, activating the Soul-type Treasures to their fullest extent.

An invisible surge of soul energy, like a tsunami, rushed towards the Snowfall Clan's camp, its target being the mid-to-low-level Venerables.

"No!"

"Help me!"

Screams echoed throughout the room.

Most of the Snowfall Clan's primary and intermediate Venerables only possess ordinary soul-type treasures. How could they withstand the combined attack of two overlord-level soul masters?

Moreover, there are more than a dozen illusionists in the human camp simultaneously casting soul attacks to assist them.

"puff!"

"puff!"

"puff!"

One by one, the Snowfall Clan Venerables' eyes glazed over, their divine bodies losing control, and they fell from the sky.

In just one concentrated attack, twenty-six novice Venerables and eleven intermediate Venerables were annihilated by their souls!

Thirty-seven Venerable Ones perished in an instant!

The Snowfall Clan camp was in chaos, and the remaining Venerables were all terrified.

"Damn it!" Venerable Frost Night's eyes were bloodshot. She wanted to help, but Venerable Blood Blade had already reached her.

"Frosty Night, I am your opponent."

The Blood Blade Master wielded a blood-red battle blade, its light cascading like a river of blood, each strike containing the power to shatter stars.

Frost Night Venerable had no choice but to turn around and fight back. His ice crystal longsword clashed with the blood-red battle blade, shattering the space inch by inch.

On the other side, Venerable Moyun faced off against Venerable Leiyu.

"Ink Cloud Hammer!" Venerable Ink Cloud roared, and the giant hammer crashed down with earth-shattering force.

Thunder Prison Venerable sneered, flicking his spear to unleash a torrent of lightning: "Thunder Prison - Break!"

"boom!"

The hammer and gun collided, and the terrifying shockwave destroyed palaces within a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers.

Venerable Jinliu approached a high-ranking Venerable from the Xueluo clan, while Venerable Shuijing, Venerable Tianshi, and other powerful figures from the human camp also identified their opponents.

The battlefield instantly descended into chaos.

But the situation is completely one-sided.

The remaining thirty-nine Venerables of the Snowfall Clan not only have to face the sixty Venerables of the human camp, but also have to endure the occasional ruthless attacks from several overlords.

The disparity in equipment between the two sides was even more pronounced. Many human Venerables possessed supreme treasure armor that protected them, making it impossible for their opponents to penetrate their defenses. However, most of the Snowfall Clan Venerables only had ordinary heavy treasures for protection, which made them virtually indistinguishable from not wearing armor in battle.

"Flame Dragon Break - Flame Light Thrust!"

Lin Yuan thrust out his spear, and the Crimson Meteorite Spear transformed into a blazing white starlight, directly piercing through a high-level Venerable of the Snowfall Clan.

The opponent's top-tier armor was as fragile as paper, and his divine body instantly suffered a loss of 60%.

"How is this possible..." The Venerable One stared in disbelief at the hole in his chest. The next moment, Lin Yuan's second shot arrived.

"puff!"

As the spear flashed, a high-ranking Venerable fell.

On the other side, Venerable Jiufeng moved like the wind, and wherever he passed, the Venerables of the Snowfall Clan fell in droves.

His soul attacks are all-pervasive; even if the opponent possesses a soul-related treasure, they cannot withstand his soul secret technique, which briefly reaches the level of a top overlord after burning divine power.

Blood trickled from the corner of Frost Night Venerable's mouth. She surveyed the battlefield, her heart sinking.

The battle had barely begun when the Snowfall Clan had lost more than forty Venerables, while the human camp had only three or four people with minor injuries.

With inferior equipment, combat strength, and manpower, this battle is simply unwinnable.

"Mo Yun!" Venerable Frost Night transmitted his voice, "Take your people and leave, as many as you can!"

Venerable Moyun forced Venerable Leiyu back with a single hammer blow, and said with a wry smile, "Leave? Look around you."

As Venerable Frost Night swept his divine sense across the area, he saw that the three domains had completely sealed off Snow Flower Star, with the three overlords, Light and Shadow, Radiant Star, and Golden Spear, eyeing him menacingly.

There is no escape.

"Since we can't escape..." A resolute glint flashed in Venerable Frostnight's eyes, "Then let them pay the price!"

She suddenly unleashed even more divine power, her aura surging: "Snowfall Clan, fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!" the remaining Venerables roared in unison, knowing that there was no way out today.

One of the mid-level Venerables charged towards the human camp first, and self-destructed the moment he got close.

"boom!"
