Swallowing the Stars: I'll Destroy the Universe with My Talent Attributes

His eyes lit up when he saw Qin Yuan: "Qin... no, I should call you Starfall now. Your disguise is quite good, I almost didn't recognize you."

"Driven by circumstances."

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Captain, it's been a long time."

"Just call me Yan Feng. You're a Realm Lord now."

Yan Feng waved his hand and said seriously:

“Let’s get down to business. I’ve gathered some information about the cemetery, and you probably already know the basics: the outer perimeter is the ‘Bone Plain,’ the middle is the ‘Corridor of Death,’ and the core is the ‘Immortal Mausoleum.’ We’re going to the Corridor of Death, where there are a large number of World Lord-level world remnants, and the resources are the richest.”

He brought up a virtual star map, which was marked with dozens of points of light.

"The Death Corridor has three major dangers: First, the erosion of the laws of fallen powerful beings, which will erode one's life force if one stays inside for a long time; second, the Wraith Clan, creatures formed by the fusion of the remnant souls of powerful beings with the laws of the universe, which are immune to physical attacks and specialize in attacking the soul; third... other treasure hunters."

"Especially the demon race and the mechanical race."

The mechanical projection of the mechanical tremor added, "I received news that an elite squad from the demon race's 'Blood Wolf Clan' entered the cemetery three days ago, led by 'Blood Hatred Heaven,' a wolf king at the third level of the Realm Lord. The mechanical race's 'Crystal Core Life' also sent people, led by 'Crystal Edge,' a mechanical general at the third level of the Realm Lord."

You Li's soul body rippled slightly: "The Blood Wolf Clan excels in blood-based innate abilities, and death environments provide them with a boost. The Mechanical Clan's energy form, on the other hand, is immune to some negative influences. Both of these groups are not to be trifled with."

Qin Yuan asked calmly, "Is their target also the Corridor of Death?"

"Most likely."

Yan Feng nodded. "The Death Corridor has thirteen 'world graveyards,' each containing the remains of at least ten world lords' inner worlds. The richest ones will definitely be fought over."

"Then rob it."

Qin Yuan's tone was calm, "On our side, You Li is a second-level Realm Lord, Yan Feng is a peak first-level Realm Lord, and I am a first-level Realm Lord. Xie Zhen is skilled in mechanical technology, so our overall strength is not weak."

"Then, let's set off."

Qin Yuan made the decision.

Four spacecraft formed a formation and headed towards the spatial rift at the entrance to the cemetery.

The moment you pass through the crack, a chilling aura of death washes over you.

Even through the spaceship's shields, Qin Yuan could feel the chill that seemed to freeze his soul. This was pure law overflowing, naturally repelling and corroding the living.

"Activate negative resistance shield."

Yan Feng gave the order.

The four spaceships simultaneously lit up with a pale green light membrane, which was a "life energy shield" prepared in advance, specifically designed to resist the erosion of death.

The shield made a sizzling sound as it came into contact with the aura of death, but it held firm.

The spacecraft entered the cemetery.

The scene before me was even more breathtaking than it appeared from the outside.

The shattered continental plates drifted slowly in the void. Some plates still had intact buildings remaining, such as castles that were tens of thousands of meters high, city walls that stretched for thousands of miles, and even upside-down mountain ranges.

Countless spirit flames danced like fireflies between the plates, illuminating the shattered statues, rusty weapons, and... bones scattered everywhere.

There were the skeletons of colossal beasts, as large as mountains; humanoid skeletons, piled up like mountains; and many more strange bones of unidentifiable races, scattered everywhere.

"Just how many powerful figures died here?"

Yan Feng looked through the porthole, his voice trembling slightly.

"For billions of years, the strongest beings from all races in the universe have regarded this place as their final resting place."

Youli's soul gazed at the skeletons. "Some died of old age, some succumbed to their injuries, and many more... perished together in the struggle. Their obsessions, resentments, and the fluctuations of the laws at the moment of their death together created this cemetery."

After flying for about half an hour, a relatively "flat" area appeared ahead.

It was a plain pieced together from countless broken tectonic plates, stretching as far as the eye could see. Every few hundred kilometers along the plain, there was a raised "hill," its interior radiating intense energy fluctuations.

"We've arrived at the Plains of Bones."

Yan Feng pointed to the hills, "Those are the 'World Graveyards,' formed by the accumulation of core remnants after the collapse of the inner world of a World Lord-level expert. Each graveyard is like a mine, containing fragments of the world's core, crystals of laws, and remnants of primal force weapons... but each also has a guardian."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the nearest cemetery suddenly shook.

Dozens of pale gray shadows drifted out from the cracks in the graveyard.

The shadows had no fixed shape; sometimes they coalesced into human form, and sometimes they dispersed like smoke. Each shadow had two hollow "eyes" at its head, emanating a chilling spiritual aura.

"The vengeful spirits have arrived."

You Li was the first to fly out of the spaceship.

Her soul thrived in the death environment, becoming even more solidified than in the normal universe. The soul runes on her purple armor lit up, and a pale purple domain with a diameter of one kilometer unfolded.

This is the Soul Clan's innate talent, "Soul's Protection".

The domain enveloped the four spaceships, instantly alleviating the chill in everyone's hearts.

"The Wraith Clan is divided into two levels: Domain Lord-level Wraiths and World Lord-level Wraith Generals."

You Li's voice echoed in everyone's minds, "These are vengeful spirits, equivalent to the third to sixth level of a Domain Lord. Their attack methods are singular: soul impact, death erosion, and possession. Leave it to me."

She formed hand seals, and the protective domain of her soul began to shrink and condense, eventually transforming into hundreds of purple soul chains that shot towards the vengeful spirits.

The moment the chains made contact with the vengeful spirit, the spirit let out a silent shriek, a wail that directly affected the soul.

The chains of the ghostly glass seemed to have a life of their own, binding the vengeful spirits, then tightening and purifying them.

The vengeful spirit's gray body began to dissipate, eventually turning into a wisp of green smoke, leaving behind only a gray crystal the size of a grain of rice.

These are the crystallization of the soul.

In less than a minute, dozens of vengeful spirits were all annihilated.

You Li retracted the chains, and the soul crystals automatically flew into her hand. "The soul crystals of vengeful spirits can be used to create soul defense treasures and also to aid in the cultivation of soul techniques. Based on contribution, these are mine, is that alright?"

No one objected.

After clearing the vengeful spirits from the entrance, the four spaceships landed at the edge of the nearest graveyard.

The cemetery is about five kilometers in diameter and three hundred meters high, with its surface covered in cracks.

From the cracks, one can see various colored lights shimmering inside; that is the energy glow emanating from the core fragments of the world.

"Detection revealed seven high-energy reactions inside, which should be the remains of the cores of seven world lords."

Mechanical Shock released three spider-shaped probe robots, which crawled into the crack, "but also detected at least three life forms at the level of World Lords... they are Wraith Generals."

A vengeful spirit at the level of a realm lord!

Yan Feng's expression turned serious: "One vengeful spirit is manageable, but three... You Li, can you hold off two of them at the same time?"

"It's okay to hold them off, but it takes time to kill them."

You Li said, "The vengeful spirit's soul has become semi-materialized and can use some of its secret techniques from its previous life, making it very difficult to deal with."

Qin Yuan suddenly spoke up: "Give one to me."

Yan Feng and You Li both looked at him at the same time.

"The fallen star will possess at least the strength of a first-tier World Lord, and will be immune to physical attacks..."

Yan Feng was somewhat worried.

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "I recently learned a technique that can counter soul bodies."

He was telling the truth, combining the "information locking" of the starlight law, the "dimensional confinement" of the space law, and the "energy vibration" of the lightning law to form an "information shockwave" that can directly attack the origin of the soul.

This move is generally ineffective against material life forms, but it is a natural enemy of pure souls like vengeful spirits.

"Then let's give it a try."

You Li looked at Qin Yuan with great interest: "Yan Feng and I will each deal with one vengeful spirit general, and you will deal with the third. Xie Zhen will provide support from the outside and clear out any vengeful spirits that may appear."

With the tactics finalized, the four flew into the graveyard crevice.

The interior space is much larger than it appears from the outside, with a diameter exceeding twenty kilometers, clearly exhibiting a spatial folding effect.

The entire cemetery was like a huge cavern, with countless glowing crystals embedded in its walls. These were fragments of the world's core, the smallest of which was the size of a fist, and the largest was comparable to a house.

In the center of the cave, three tall, gray figures floated silently.

Those were three vengeful spirits, each over five meters tall, their souls so solid they were almost indistinguishable from their physical bodies.

They wore tattered armor, wielded rusted weapons, and their empty eye sockets burned with eerie green flames of their souls. Sensing the presence of the living, the three vengeful spirits turned simultaneously, their soul waves crashing down like a tsunami.

"As planned!"

Yan Feng roared and charged towards the leftmost vengeful spirit general.

His laws of fire unfolded, and crimson flames burned tenaciously in the deathly environment.

After breaking through to the Realm Lord level, Yan Feng's Flame Law incorporated a trace of "purification" properties, resulting in additional damage against death-type creatures.

The vengeful spirit on the far left is the remnant soul of a human swordsman. With a swing of his rusty sword, he unleashes a gray, deathly sword aura. The Flameblade meets it head-on, flames and death colliding, erupting in a piercing shriek.

You Li faced the vengeful spirit in the center, a remnant soul of a giant demon beast, resembling a mammoth but with six arms. You Li's Soul Protection Domain contracted into a battle armor form, and she clenched her hands, conjuring two purple soul whips, and engaged the beast in battle.

Qin Yuan looked at the third vengeful spirit general.

This is the remnant soul of a mechanical race, but its form is very strange. It is not a complete mechanical body, but a "Frankenstein's monster" pieced together from countless gears, bearings, and pipes.

Sensing Qin Yuan's gaze, it raised all six mechanical arms at the same time, and a ghostly green eye opened in the center of each palm.

"Humans...the living...the dead..."

Intermittent fluctuations of soul energy emanated from the body.

Qin Yuan didn't waste any words and immediately took action.

He did not deploy the Astral Projection, nor did he use the Time-Sequence Starlight Gun; he simply extended his right index finger, and a strange light shone from the tip of his finger.

It was not simply starlight, nor space or lightning, but an "information singularity" formed by the fusion of three laws.

"Three Phases - Soul Tremor".

Pointing out with one finger.

There were no energy fluctuations, no light emitted, only an invisible "information ripple" spreading out. Wherever the ripple passed, the aura of death in the space was dispelled, the spiritual fire was extinguished, and even the glowing crystals on the cave walls dimmed for a moment.

The mechanical vengeful spirit's six eyes widened simultaneously.

It sensed a deadly threat!

This attack is not aimed at the energy of the soul, but at the "existential information" that constitutes the soul!
