Swallowing the Stars: Only in my later years did I come to the life-spending panel.

With a flick of his wrist, the Purple Thunder Dragon Spear instantly transformed into thousands of dazzling spear shadows.

"hold head high--!"

With a faint dragon's roar, violent primal force burst forth from the gun, transforming into a lifelike purple lightning dragon in mid-air! The lightning dragon roared and charged forward, its massive body sweeping out with a mighty slash.

boom!boom!boom!boom!

The hundreds of Hengxing-level warriors who were trying to join forces to resist were struck head-on by this powerful blow, as if they had been hit by a high-speed interstellar warship. Their sternums collapsed instantly, their internal organs shattered, and they were sent flying backward, spitting out blood, and died completely in mid-air.

[Slay a ninth-tier martial artist of the Constant Star level and plunder their remaining lifespan...]

Zhou Mu's steps did not falter in the slightest. The Purple Thunder Dragon Spear in his hand moved with wide, sweeping motions, each strike containing the destructive essence of the law of lightning.

The spear sweeps, thrusts, and upward slashes—there are no fancy moves, only the purest and most extreme violent aesthetics!

Under the dual suppression of the Ninefold Lightning Domain and the Origin Law, even the flow of their Force became extremely sluggish for the surrounding martial artists. Their proud martial skills were laughable like children in front of Zhou Mu.

Thunder roars, Thunder Prison Drills reap the harvest, and spears drink blood!

The core area of ​​the entire Wind and Thunder Canyon has now been completely transformed into a meat grinder.

The tens of thousands of troops that originally intended to hunt Zhou Mu have now become prey to be slaughtered unilaterally.

A strong, pungent smell of blood, mixed with the scorched flesh from lightning, rose into the air, making one want to vomit.

"He's a devil! He's a devil!"

"Run! Run! This is a force we can't possibly contend with!"

"Don't kill me! I don't want this opportunity! Ah—!"

Fear, like a plague, spread wildly in the hearts of the surviving warriors.

They finally realized that they had not provoked a fat sheep carrying a great treasure, but a peerless ferocious beast that had emerged from the ancient abyss in human skin!

The warriors' mental defenses completely collapsed. They abandoned their armor and weapons, crying and shoving each other, and fled frantically towards the outer edge of the canyon like headless flies.

However, Zhou Mu's lightning domain had already locked down the surrounding space, and the falling lightning formed a huge lightning net.

Those martial artists who tried to escape were instantly blasted into charred corpses the moment they touched the edge of the lightning net.

The massacre lasted for a full ten minutes.

As the last bolt of lightning slowly dissipated under Zhou Mu's will, the deafening screams within the Wind and Thunder Canyon finally subsided completely.

On the panel, the number of lifespans plundered scrolled wildly, eventually settling at an astronomical figure.

[Current Plunder Lifespan: 1200 Eras]

Zhou Mu held the Purple Thunder Dragon Spear and stood quietly in mid-air.

Crimson blood slowly dripped from the tip of the spear.

Beneath his feet, the once jagged canyon floor was now completely stained red with blood, and layers upon layers of mangled flesh covered an area of ​​several thousand meters, resembling a legendary hell.

Tens of thousands of elite warriors at the ninth level of the Hengxing realm were slaughtered in this short period of time!

A gentle breeze blew by, carrying with it a heavy, pungent smell of blood.

Far from the slaughterhouse, behind a steep rock wall in the canyon.

A dozen or so figures were pressed tightly against the cold rock wall, their bodies trembling violently as if they were being shaken.

They held their breath, making sure they read a chapter ahead of everyone else. They didn't dare breathe, their eyes filled with an indescribable, extreme fear.

These survivors are all true geniuses who have been hidden away by the top powers.

After sensing the subtle yet terrifying aura emanating from Zhou Mu, they, with their genius intuition and keen sense of danger, did not let greed cloud their judgment. Instead, they chose to remain far away outside the area amidst the thunder and lightning, observing from the sidelines.

It was this calmness and restraint that saved their lives.

"That's...that's terrifying..."

A young, genius girl clad in silver battle armor was deathly pale, her teeth chattering uncontrollably. "That's the fundamental law of lightning…it's definitely the power of law! He actually drew upon the calamity-inducing lightning of Wind and Thunder Valley for his own use!"

"A celestial level...comprehending the power of laws? And with such a terrifying level of control!"

Another young man, carrying two swords on his back, swallowed hard, his voice filled with deep despair. "We actually dared to try and seize the opportunity from such a monster? This isn't a training course for apprentice mercenaries...this is clearly some monster cultivated by some powerful organization for slaughter and training!"

Just as these surviving geniuses were in a state of utter horror...

Zhou Mu, suspended in mid-air, slowly turned his head, his deep eyes, which seemed to contain endless thunder, sweeping across the direction where they were hiding.

It was just a fleeting glance.

thump! thump!

These dozen or so usually proud and arrogant geniuses suddenly collapsed to the ground, their legs giving way beneath them, unable to muster even the slightest courage to run away.

Zhou Mu glanced at them but did not make any further moves.

He put away the Purple Thunder Dragon Spear and the Thunder Prison Drill, and with a thought, a vast amount of mental energy swept out, gathering all the spoils of war scattered on the battlefield.

Then, with his hands behind his back, he transformed into a purple rainbow amidst a flash of lightning, calmly tearing apart the remaining thunderclouds and disappearing at the end of the Wind and Thunder Canyon.

All that remained were the survivors trembling in pools of blood and terror, and this hellish place that had witnessed such carnage.

Deep within the Wind and Thunder Canyon, the bloody stench, reminiscent of a hellish realm, lingered for a long time.

Only when Zhou Mu's figure, which had transformed into a purple rainbow, completely disappeared into the horizon did the dozen or so surviving geniuses huddled behind the steep cliff face collapse to the ground like slumped mud, as if all their strength had been drained.

"I...I survived..." The young man carrying two swords gasped for breath, his entire body drenched in cold sweat, as if he had just walked through the gates of hell.

"Quick! Connect to the virtual universe network!" The girl in the silver battle suit was the first to recover. She screamed, her voice trembling with barely concealed urgency, "Such a huge incident has occurred! Almost all the Star-level elites sent in by various forces have been wiped out! We must report this to the family immediately!"

"Yes! Report this! That monster not only comprehended the fundamental laws of lightning, but he must also be carrying the most crucial treasure!"

Those who realized what was happening didn't dare to delay for a moment and immediately activated their respective auxiliary AI, their consciousness instantly connecting to the virtual universe network.

……

Virtual universe, Heilongshan Island.

On luxurious islands and magnificent manors suspended in mid-air, the top leaders of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire's various leading families and forces received urgent communications from the Thunder World almost simultaneously.

"What did you say?! Total annihilation?!"
