Lord of the Rending Stars

Following Venerable Peng, Qingyang met and greeted the heads of key departments of the Virtual Universe Company, such as the material warehouse and equipment warehouse, through Peng's introduction. Unexpectedly, the guard of the material warehouse was none other than his acquaintance, King Jiuyu.

"Qingyang, we meet again. If you need any materials later, you can apply to me. I will approve them for you as quickly as possible," King Jiuyu winked and smiled.

"Don't worry, King Jiuyu, I'll be troubling you a lot then," Qingyang said, both amused and exasperated.

After exchanging pleasantries, Qingyang returned to his residence.

"The Shadow Beast itself stays at the Holy City Virtual Universe Company to work, its main task being to comprehend the laws, and occasionally to undertake the task of forging immortal divine weapons arranged by the company."

"The human main body can go out and explore, and even if it perishes, it doesn't matter, it's just an avatar."

One hundred years later, King Jiuyu paid a visit and expressed his desire to invite Qingyang to join him on an adventure. Qingyang nodded in agreement.

Interestingly, standing next to King Jiuyu was a young man with icy eyes, exuding a chilling aura that kept strangers at bay, and wearing ice-blue armor.

Qingyang understood. "The Ice Peak Lord in the original story is only a King-level Immortal at this point. Interesting."

"Excuse me, who is this?" Qingyang asked, feigning confusion.

"Haha, this is my junior brother Bingfeng. Don't let his icy face fool you, Junior Brother Bingfeng is quite powerful even among the King Limit Immortals. The three of us together can help each other out," Jiuyu said with a laugh.

"You are only at the Realm Lord stage. It is rumored that you possess the strength to become an immortal king. I wonder if you can withstand three moves from me," King Ice Peak said calmly.

"As you wish, come to the Virtual Universe Killing Space. I'm sending you an application now. Jiuyu, I've also sent you a spectator invitation. Come and take a look too." Qingyang didn't want to waste any more words. Geniuses are all proud, and so was Bingfeng.

The three people were suspended in mid-air, their consciousness already inside the virtual universe's killing space.

The earthen-yellow planet, illuminated by the super sun of the virtual universe, reflects a monotonous and desolate luster. There is no life here, no atmosphere, only endless desert and jagged rocks, stretching to beyond the distorted arc of the horizon.

This is the perfect battlefield for the Kill Space simulation, with 100% pain and physical laws, but you don't have to worry about actually dying.

Two streaks of light, one black and one silver, like two comets flying in opposite directions, suddenly tore through the eternal silence and hovered high in the sky, thousands of miles apart.

The silver-haired youth, clad in jet-black armor with sharp, blade-like lines, held a dark-glowing sword in his hand, its blade swirling with a dark, shimmering light. This sword was none other than the top-tier treasure, the "Heavenly Flame Blade."

At this moment, Qingyang's silver hair moved without wind, his eyes were sharp as lightning, the space around him was slightly distorted, and his battle blade seemed to emit a low, fiery sound.

Opposite him, a young man clad in ice-blue armor had a face as cold as ice, devoid of any emotion. The longsword in his hand was crystal clear, as if solidified ice, yet silver runes flowed ceaselessly along its blade, radiating a chill that stung even the soul. This was the Ice Peak's top treasure, "Frost Silence."

The ice peak stood silently, and ice crystals silently condensed and spread out from the void beneath its feet. No words were spoken.

"boom!"

Almost simultaneously, two terrifying auras that sent shivers down the planet's spine erupted! Dark black and silvery white flames shot into the sky from their bodies. The immense pressure of their immortal kingships collided instantly, and the void between them creaked under the strain, countless fine black spatial cracks appearing and disappearing out of thin air.

The silver-haired youth moved first, taking a step forward, his figure suddenly blurring as his movement changed! The blade light had already lit up before he appeared, the dark battle blade carrying the momentum to cleave through the galaxy, transforming into an arc of fire that spanned the sky. Where the blade passed, space was neatly cut open like a piece of cloth, revealing the colorful primordial universe layer behind it.

"Hmph." The icy-faced youth snorted coldly, casually handing the "Frost Silence" sword to his side.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

An indescribable roar erupted, the sound waves transforming into a visible ring-shaped shockwave that instantly engulfed the land below. The earthen-yellow planet's surface was as if it had been brutally overturned by an invisible giant plow, with deep trenches spreading out in a ring, thousands of miles deep. Millions of tons of rock were pulverized and then swept high into the sky by the shockwave, forming a dust storm that obscured half of the planet.

Where swords clash, the laws of nature roar!

The power of the fire element contained within the silver-haired youth's sword strike, condensed to its extreme, transformed into countless tiny yet powerful blade storms capable of tearing apart stars, which swept along the sword's body, slicing away.

The power of the water law emanating from the young man's sword was now closer to the law of ice. It transformed into an absolute zero-degree chill and a field of stagnation, not only shattering the incoming storm of blades, but also attempting to freeze the opponent's spacetime and sword momentum along with the sword.

Their initial clash was evenly matched; it was clear that Bingfeng was merely testing the waters by receiving Qingyang's strike. Their figures separated instantly, then collided again at a terrifying speed exceeding the speed of light. Their powerful domains of law had interfered with each other, locking down space; now, the contest was one of absolute strength, speed, and mastery of secret techniques.

"A Thousand Layers of Blades!"

The silver-haired youth let out a low shout, his swordsmanship shifting instantly. In a flash, he seemed to multiply into countless forms, countless realistic sword shadows filling the void. Each sword shadow drew upon the fire law of the universe's origin, transforming into a destructive domain of fiery blades that slashed at his opponent from all directions. This was the ultimate offensive technique from Qingyang's self-created, King-level Immortal combat secret method!

A chilling light flashed in the icy-faced youth's eyes. "Frost Realm, descend!" Centered on him, an absolutely cold silver light suddenly spread out, colliding violently with the sea of ​​a thousand blades. The arcs of fire blades struggled to pass through the silver light, their speed drastically reduced, and they were weakened and frozen layer by layer.

He himself became one with the sword, transforming into an extremely condensed silver line, ignoring the surrounding raging flames, and piercing straight at the silver-haired youth's body! This sword strike was so fast that it reached the gap in time; it was his painstakingly cultivated ultimate technique, "Instant Light Ice Spike."

"Well done!" The silver-haired youth was not surprised but delighted. The Heavenly Flame Battle Blade changed from extreme movement to extreme stillness, and a vast amount of power surged into the blade, truly unleashing the power of this treasure. A blurry phantom of a strange beast appeared on the blade, letting out a silent roar, carrying a tearing and destroying will, directly clashing with that point of cold star.

"Boom!"

This collision exceeded the planet's limits. The space at the point of impact completely collapsed, forming a dark void hundreds of kilometers in diameter, frantically devouring all surrounding matter and energy. The shockwave was no longer circular, but indiscriminately destroyed the entire planet. The planet trembled violently, its tectonic plates fractured and uplifted on a massive scale, and magma erupted from the depths of the Earth's core, turning the yellowish-brown world a dark red.

Two figures flew backward from the center of the explosion. Qingyang clearly felt that this attack had reached the level of the King-level Immortal.

As the dust settled, the two resumed their exchange, exchanging hundreds of blows in a single second. A deep sword wound appeared on the chest of the silver-haired youth's armor, its edges covered in lingering frost. His aura weakened slightly, while the icy-faced youth showed no significant change. The silver-armored youth's left shoulder was nearly cleaved open, the remaining, violent power of the Refrigeration Law constantly eroding his armor, causing his aura to decline noticeably.

"Your 'Frost Silence' cannot suppress my blade," Qingyang licked his lips, his fighting spirit burning brightly.

"Your 'Heavenly Flame' can't tear apart my sword domain," said the icy-faced youth, Bingfeng, his voice still cold, but his eyes blazed with an equal flame.

In the killing space, they can cast aside all their worries and fully experience the thrill and pressure of fighting against strong opponents of the same level, which is the best way to hone themselves.

Almost simultaneously, the auras of the two surged once again! Even more profound and mysterious law fluctuations began to condense, and the surrounding shattered spatial fragments were drawn and swirled by an invisible force.

The planet below, amidst the ever-increasing terrifying aura of the two, let out its final lament. A massive crack pierced the entire planet, and the light from the star's core began to seep out through the fissure.

This epic battle for immortality was destined to end with the complete collapse of the planet beneath their feet as its most spectacular backdrop and finale.

All of this happens in a virtual universe, a space that exists for killing and evolution.
