Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 713

"For this supreme treasure, I ventured deep into the heart of the ancient kingdom's war, confronted an invincible being, and used every means at my disposal to finally seize it."

Looking at the confused crowd ahead, Yin Demon Lord was also somewhat moved. Having already reached the ultimate realm, he was now risking everything in his quest for even greater power.

"Unfortunately, although I managed to seize it in the end, I also fell into annihilation, possessing a treasure but unable to use it." The Yin Demon Lord was very frustrated, and the thought of the final outcome, even if it was just a lingering remnant of his spirit, made him unable to hold back.

For cultivators, the greatest pain is to seize a powerful treasure, only to die without ever using it, thus benefiting others.

Looking at these people who might seize this treasure, Yin Demon Lord's eyes clearly revealed his anger.

Being stared at like that by the Yin Demon Lord, the group of people who had been waiting for the Demon Master couldn't say anything and could only silently endure it.

They went to dig up graves, so it's normal for them to get scolded by the owner.

"Damn the progenitor of Eternal Night!" Yin Demon Lord gritted his teeth. As an invincible being with his own supreme treasure, he still insisted on pursuing him and beat him to death.

"That's right, the Ancestor of Eternal Night deserves to die!"

"He's simply an unparalleled demon..."

"I was also humiliated by the subordinates of the Primordial Night..."

Upon hearing Yin Demon Lord's words, everyone hurriedly reconciled, but in the end, they were indeed speaking from the heart, especially the Nine Absolutes Island Master.

Those present were all from the Black Prison and the Dark Sea. Did they not want to develop in the core continent? They were forced by the ancient kingdoms to go to the desolate and dangerous outer regions to develop.

Therefore, I can really empathize with the words and experiences of the Yin Demon Lord.

As they talked, everyone stared expectantly at the Yin Demon Lord in front of them, or more precisely, at the Supreme Treasure beside him, as if to say, "Have you decided who to give the treasure to?"

The Yin Demon Lord did not immediately throw the supreme treasure out of the Realm Heart Continent, which must have been because of his own reasons, and he will definitely hand it over eventually.

Whoever he chooses, it won't be bad news; at least others will still have a chance to compete for them.

"Why does this Yin Demon Lord seem to be stalling for time?"

As Lu Yunhe gradually calmed down, he looked at Yin Mozun's actions and was immediately puzzled.

Since it's just a lingering remnant, there must be some predetermined processes running through it; otherwise, it would be a living being and there would be no need for it to be trapped here.

“Something’s not right.” Lu Yunhe echoed the others while surveying the entire palace.

"Sigh, you've gotten off easy." The Yin Demon Lord sighed, his eyes filled with deep reluctance.

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately perked up, and the previous commotion returned to calm as they quietly awaited the Yin Demon Lord's next words.

"As a supreme treasure, its use is subject to very strict conditions, and ordinary people cannot fully refine it." Yin Demon Lord slowly spoke, the phantom of the Hunyuan Golden Bucket spinning at his fingertips, exuding an aura that transcended that of a cosmic god, attracting everyone's attention.

"If you want to avenge me, oaths are secondary. The most crucial thing is whether you can fully unleash the power of this supreme treasure. Otherwise, revenge will just be empty talk," said the Yin Demon Lord.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded. To become an opponent of an invincible being, one must also be an invincible being.

If the power of the supreme treasures cannot be fully utilized, then there is not even the ability to protect these treasures.

The value of the supreme treasure is so great that even invincible beings would be willing to set aside their pride and personally use underhanded tactics.

"Before I died, I used a portion of the power of the Supreme Treasure to create this tomb, and at the same time, I set up a test for the treasure."

"A wisp of the power of a supreme treasure has manifested. You can all try to refine this power together. Whoever can completely refine this power will have the highest compatibility with the supreme treasure." The Yin Demon Lord stated the conditions for obtaining the treasure.

Only those capable of avenging him are qualified to obtain this treasure.

Upon hearing this, the people present immediately became wary of each other, which meant that they were all enemies of each other, and in the end there could only be one winner.

However, the greatest threat in the arena was the Lord of Nine Absolutes Island. As a third-level Cosmic God, he was inherently a level higher than them.

The level of understanding is there, and the advantage is greater no matter what.

Unfortunately, even the four of them working together couldn't defeat the Lord of Nine Absolutes Island. Otherwise, they really wanted to join forces to eliminate him first, so that the rest would at least be on the same starting line.

Moreover, if the supreme treasure falls into the hands of others, the remaining forces still have a chance to join forces.

Even the most powerful treasures don't make you invincible the moment you pick them up.

However, once the Nine Absolutes Island Master becomes powerful, with terrifying strength to begin with, and then unleashes the power of some supreme treasures, the rest of the people combined will be nothing more than easy prey.

Despite his own advantages, the Lord of Nine Absolutes Island did not feel confident of victory and became even more nervous. The last mile is the hardest, and he was only one step away from the supreme treasure.

"let's start!"

With a wave of his hand, Yin Demon Lord caused the Hunyuan Golden Bucket, which was floating in mid-air, to instantly transform into five orbs of light that landed in front of everyone.

A wisp of aura containing supreme rules and primordial power almost completely enveloped everyone's senses.

However, at this moment, no one was in the mood to pay attention to anything else. They all began to use their divine power to merge into the ball of light, trying to increase the compatibility as much as possible.

Seeing this, the Yin Demon Lord, who was floating in mid-air, relaxed his mind slightly.

For most people, both the supreme rules and the power of primordial chaos are beyond the realm of the universe gods, making them incredibly difficult to refine, and even finding a way to do so is extremely challenging.

Only one person's expression changed drastically at this moment, and he even directly crushed the golden ball of light in his hand.

“Yin Demon Lord…” a cold, sharp voice rang out.

……

At the very bottom of the Demon Lord's Palace, in a void space, the Lords of the Stars, who should have been with everyone else, appeared there all at once.

In addition, the figure of the Yin Demon Lord was also present.

"Yin, it's been a long time!" The Lord of Stars looked at the figure before him and was lost in memories.

"It has indeed been a long time, Star." The Yin Demon Lord looked at the once familiar figure, but now he was trapped in annihilation, and countless emotions surged in his heart.

Unbeknownst to outsiders, the Yin Demon Lord and the Lord of Stars were longtime friends who had shared life and death, and they often went on adventures together.

However, Yin Demon Lord's cultivation advanced further, reaching the ultimate realm, while the Lord of Stars has been trapped at the second level of the Cosmic God realm ever since, so the two of them had less communication afterward.

The last news the Lord of the Stars received about the Yin Demon Lord was naturally news of the latter's death, which caused him immense grief for countless years.

Of course, after the grief, the Lord of the Stars also continued to search for the whereabouts of the Yin Demon Lord, thinking of collecting his body while also yearning for his legacy.

As for revenge, the invincible being is not someone the Lord of the Stars can challenge.

After countless eons of searching, the Lord of the Stars finally found the place where the Yin Demon Lord fell, but the Lord of Nine Absolutes Island also discovered this place.

Due to the power of the Nine Absolutes Island Lord, the Lord of Stars had no choice but to plan this operation. He enlisted the help of several Cosmic Gods to accompany him on this adventure while resisting the intimidation of the Nine Absolutes Island Lord. After many hardships, they finally met the Yin Demon Lord at this moment.

Sure enough, upon sensing his presence, the Yin Demon Lord's power directly teleported him over.

As for those still in the crowd, they are naturally clones of the Lord of Stars. As long as a full-blown battle doesn't break out, they won't be easily exposed.

"When I heard the news of your death, I was also devastated, but unfortunately I was no match for the Ancestor of Eternal Night," said the Lord of Stars. "However, as long as we have the Supreme Treasure, we still have a chance for revenge."

"revenge!"

The lingering resentment of the Yin Demon Lord fell silent for a moment. To be honest, what's the point of oaths? Once you obtain the supreme treasure, you will inevitably clash with an invincible being. Oaths are just another layer of constraint.

Compared to others, his former friend, the Lord of Stars, is indeed more trustworthy.

However, he has been gone for so many years. Are his former friends still friends?

Rather than handing it over to these people, he really wanted to select a good successor and train him from a young age.

Unfortunately, he died too quickly; even with the supreme treasure in his hand, he didn't have time to make any arrangements.

Places like the Black Prison are only frequented by cosmic gods; they are not suitable for inheritors.

As for the people cultivated within the small world, not a single one has been suitable after countless eras, and their life potential is far inferior to that of the more prosperous Realm Heart Continent.

“Yin, this place has been discovered. Who knows when the Ancestor of Eternal Night will arrive? We'd better hurry.” Seeing the hesitant Yin Demon Lord, the Lord of Stars couldn’t help but urge him.

However, at that moment, the entire palace trembled instantly.

"The Yin Demon Lord!"

……

Chapter 664 Exposed

"Are you really the Yin Demon Lord?"

Lu Yunhe coldly stared at the phantom before him, crushing the ball of light in his hand. Under the might of the Cosmic God, an object formed from mere wisps of aura could not withstand his power.

Snapped!

Golden fireworks exploded in Lu Yunhe's hands, scattering all around.

Upon hearing Lu Yunhe's words, the other four immediately stopped refining the light sphere and glared angrily at each other.

"Lord of Chaos City, what do you intend to do?"

"Lord, this is definitely the power of a supreme treasure! Please don't do anything foolish!"

The Lone Fire Island Master and the others hurriedly spoke, especially the Lord of Stars, whose heart skipped a beat and he immediately became worried.

If his relationship with the Yin Demon Lord were discovered, he would probably be killed instantly by the other four.

"You just seized the supreme treasure and died, Yin Demon Lord. Do you really have the ability to influence this treasure?" Lu Yunhe said leisurely, slowly opening his right hand that had crushed the ball of light, the power of the five elements frantically gathering in his hand.

The overwhelming aura caused the entire palace to creak and groan.

It was merely an ordinary palace treasure, and it was still very fragile in front of a Cosmic God who was at the half-step ultimate realm.

"Lord of the City, please don't do anything foolish. Don't you want the Supreme Treasure anymore?" The Lord of the Stars' expression changed drastically.

"Wrong, I only want the Supreme Treasure." Lu Yunhe shook his head, preparing to directly seize it by force.

Having been in this space for so long, Lu Yunhe wasn't just waiting idly; he had also vaguely sensed where that supreme treasure was.

At this moment, since Yin Demon Lord was still trying to stall for time, Lu Yunhe had no choice but to flip the table.

The supreme treasure was originally stolen by the Yin Demon Lord, so it is in line with the rules of the cultivation world for Lu Yunhe to take it now.

It's perfectly normal if someone else takes it from you later.

You say it's yours, shout it out, and see if this supreme treasure will grant your request.

If the Yin Demon Lord could truly utilize the power of the Supreme Treasure, he would never have died so easily.

Whatever the Demon Lord of Yin is plotting, it will all be exposed once the table is overturned.

"Open it for me!"

Lu Yunhe clenched his fist instantly, and the power of chaos twisted in his hand, directly blasting towards the entire palace.
