My classmates chose martial arts and fantasy, but I chose the prehistoric world.

The news that Meng Chuan had passed eight trials in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn swept through every corner of the core area of ​​the Tianyan Starfield like a hurricane.

What's even more alarming is that Meng Chuan is only at the late stage of the Immortal Emperor realm!

A late-stage Immortal Emperor, he broke through all eight levels of the Star Tower in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!

Not to mention the Tianyan Star Region, even looking at the entire universe, no late-stage Immortal Emperor has ever achieved this!

"The Law of Force... truly worthy of being the foremost of the three thousand laws of the universe!"

"He already possesses such combat power in the late stage of Immortal Emperor; if he were to break through to the peak of Immortal Emperor, what would become of him?"

"If he can pass the ninth trial, it means that with only his late-stage Immortal Emperor cultivation, he possesses the combat power of an Immortal Venerable!"

"If he becomes an Immortal Venerable, he will be the third Immortal Venerable in our Tianyan Star Region... Currently, our Tianyan Star Region has two Immortal Venerables: the Domain Lord and the commander of the Tianyan Legion under the Domain Lord, Dugu Zui!"

……

Outside the Star Tower, amidst the murmurs of discussion, a figure silently appeared in a patch of void on the outer perimeter.

No one saw how he got there.

He appeared out of nowhere, as if he had always been standing there, but no one had noticed him before.

He was wearing a long black robe, had a slender figure, a thin face, and looked to be in his early forties.

His eyebrows were very light, almost invisible, but his eyes were surprisingly bright, like two obsidian stones polished for countless years, gleaming with a cold luster in the starlight.

He originally had no aura leaking out, but when he heard someone mention "Dugu Zui", a little of his aura finally dissipated, causing the temperature within a hundred miles to drop by several degrees.

Those cultivators who were previously discussing the matter noticed this change and their voices fell silent until they disappeared.

Someone turned around, recognized him, their pupils contracted sharply, and they subconsciously took a few steps back.

"Slay... Slay the Celestial Venerable!"

These four words seemed to possess some kind of magic, sending a chill down the spines of everyone present.

Slaughtering Immortal Venerable, Dugu Zui!

One of the two great immortals of the Tianyan Starfield in the present era, and the commander of the Tianyan Legion.

Thirty thousand years ago, after passing the Star Tower test here and being granted the title of Immortal Venerable, he was taken under the command of the Domain Lord and put in charge of the strongest armed force in the Tianyan Star Domain.

In the Tianyan Star Domain, his status was second only to the Domain Lord, making him truly "second only to one person and above tens of thousands of others".

He cultivates the Law of Slaughter!

Prove the Way through killing, nurture the Way through killing!

Over the past thirty thousand years, at least eighty to one hundred Immortal Emperor-level powerhouses have died at his hands...

None of those he targeted ever met a good end!

At this moment, Dugu Zui stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on the Star Tower. He saw that the light on the eighth floor had stabilized, but the light on the ninth floor had not yet lit up.

His expression was calm, showing no signs of emotional fluctuation.

But deep in his eyes, there was an undisguised burning passion.

The Great Dao Emperor Weapon!

Moreover, it is a Great Dao Emperor Weapon containing the Law of Slaughter!

He received the message a few days after he had cleared customs.

The news says that a late-stage Immortal Emperor named Meng Chuan defeated Lei Hong, the Thunder Barbarian Immortal Emperor of the Wind and Thunder Holy Land, in the Weiyang Star Region, and possesses a Great Dao Emperor Weapon.

He didn't care at first.

Although Great Dao Emperor Weapons are rare, they may not be suitable for him. The top-grade Innate Emperor Weapon he already possesses is in harmony with the Law of Slaughter. Great Dao Emperor Weapons that do not conform to the Law of Slaughter would not be as helpful to him as the top-grade Innate Emperor Weapon he already has.

However, news soon arrived that made him unable to sit still any longer!

It is said that during the battle between Meng Chuan and Lei Hong, the laws of slaughter actually appeared on that Great Dao Emperor Weapon!

Although Meng Chuan did not follow the path of the Law of Slaughter, the Law of Power does not discriminate against weapons. This is common knowledge in the universe. Even the Emperor Weapon of the Law of Slaughter can unleash its full power in his hands!

Because the word "force" itself contains the power of all laws.

Those who cultivate the laws of power can use weapons of any attribute and unleash their corresponding power.

For powerful individuals who follow other paths of law-based proof, a top-tier imperial weapon that aligns with their own laws is exceptionally rare!

It should be understood that the inherent laws and attributes of weapons are fixed.

The fact that the Great Dao Emperor Weapon in Meng Chuan's hand already displays the Law of Slaughter indicates that it is itself a Great Dao Emperor Weapon with the attribute of slaughter.

In Dugu Zui's memory, before the Great Emperor War began eight hundred years ago, in an era when the Great Emperors had never gone into seclusion, there had never been a Great Emperor in the universe who had proven his Dao through the law of slaughter.

The only one who could have left behind that Emperor-level weapon of the Great Dao of Slaughter could be the Slaughter Emperor, born in an even more distant era!

The Emperor's weapon, which had been lost for many years, was recently obtained by a late-stage Immortal Emperor cultivator, and it officially appeared in the world during the battle between the cultivator and Lei Hong!

Upon receiving the news, he immediately rushed to the Weiyang Star Region, the Wind and Thunder Holy Land...

Upon arriving at the location, they learned that Meng Chuan and Lei Hong had come to the Star Tower, with the former seeking the title of Immortal Venerable!

He continued on his way.

Dugu Zui stared at the Star Tower, his gaze growing increasingly intense.

If he could obtain that Emperor Weapon of the Great Dao of Slaughter, his combat power would be greatly enhanced, and he might even be able to break through to the Great Emperor realm!

"If I could obtain this imperial weapon, even a domain lord might not be my match!"

"However, I've known the Domain Lord for many years, and he's always been very kind to me. I won't try to take his position... I'll go to another super star domain and become a Domain Lord myself!"

Dugu Zui thought to himself, as if that Emperor Weapon of the Great Dao of Slaughter was already his for the taking!

"However, if he truly obtains the title of Immortal Venerable, it means he possesses the combat strength of an Immortal Venerable... I alone might not be able to defeat him! Moreover, there's Lei Hong present!"

Thinking of this, he raised his hand and sent out several communication talismans. One of them was sent to the supreme domain lord of the Tianyan Star Domain, and the others were sent to several peak Immortal Emperors.

He needs help!

He wasn't sure if the domain lord would be willing to help, after all, this was just his personal matter...

Furthermore, if he were to obtain that Great Dao Emperor Weapon, he would only have two paths to take:

The first path is to challenge the Domain Lord, defeat the Domain Lord, and become the new Domain Lord of the Tianyan Star Domain.

If he fails, he will not be able to stay in the Tianyan Star Domain, and he will go to challenge the domain lords of other super star domains.

The second option is to leave the Tianyan Star Domain directly and go to another super star domain to become a domain lord.

With his strength, if he could obtain the Emperor Weapon of the Great Dao of Slaughter, he would be absolutely certain of becoming the domain lord of a super star field!

After sending out several messages, Dugu Zui withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes, and seemed to be resting.

But the faint chill emanating from him made those around him afraid to even breathe.

Lei Hong stood at a distance, his face looking rather grim.

He recognized Dugu Zui.

In fact, among all the Immortal Emperor-level powerhouses in the Tianyan Starfield, there is no one who doesn't know Dugu Zui.

When he saw Dugu Zui appear, his heart skipped a beat.

When he saw the fleeting look of greed in Dugu Zui's eyes as he looked at the Star Tower, his heart sank to the bottom.

Dugu Zuixiu cultivated the Law of Slaughter!

And the Great Dao Emperor Weapon in Fellow Daoist Meng Chuan's possession is precisely the Killing Emperor Weapon...

This was too tempting for Dugu Zui!

It was big enough that he would do anything to get it!
