All laws are treacherous, I am the Spirit Lord

Chapter 455 The Greatest Thief and the Mastermind

The boundless spirit realm, in a plane that "does not exist".

Li Yu was watching the scene at the core of the Big Bang from across multiple universes.

Many powerful beings from all realms, who were already prepared to compete for the benefits, as well as some weak gods and ordinary deities, were puzzled as to why the rulers would join in the scramble.

Logically speaking, they shouldn't need it.

Even if they swallowed the entire storm of good fortune, it wouldn't increase their power by even a fraction.

As the "creator of the Big Bang," Li Yu was well aware of the reason.

Furthermore, the Furnace and the Toad God were also fully aware of this, so these two rulers were laughing hysterically in their respective divine kingdoms.

Disregarding appearances, they each took action to engulf and eliminate the massive explosion.

There are three rulers in total!

He is the Lord of All Changes, the Lord of the Curtain, and the Lord in Yellow.

They didn't originally care whether the explosion was more destructive or a blessing.

Until they realized that what was contained within, clearly a "spiritual inspiration" or some kind of "origin" that had been shaken out from the ancient crevice, could actually repair the Chaos Egg in their hands.

What are the benefits?
Even they can be tempted.

So they all took action to seize the source.

They could never have imagined that the Big Bang was real, the Blessed Storm was real, but the source of spiritual energy was both real and illusory.

It was simply a stroke of genius from the truth that Li Yu had planted beforehand.

When the time is right, it will conceive on its own.

Is there any flaw in this scam?

It can be considered as such, albeit barely.

However, it is clear that unless the rulers also possess a "Soul of Truth," it is absolutely impossible.

Because so far, everything is true.

Furthermore, if Li Yu ultimately chooses not to subdue these hatched Chaos Eggs, then it can be said that it is true.

Unfortunately, Li Yu could not give up.

The temptation to have these three divine entities, possessing the potential to become rulers, join his side was something Li Yu simply could not resist.

Once this is achieved, one can only imagine how powerful a gang Li Yu would possess.

And speaking of gangs!
Upon closer inspection, this was not the first time Li Yu had committed crimes with the furnace and the Toad God.

In the first couple of cases, the victims were all the same.

This time, it's a truly large-scale undertaking.

But it succeeded.

Therefore, even though Li Yu has not yet brought the three future rulers, Error, Secret, and Salvation, under his command, he already has a "ruler-level gang" in effect.

The core members are: the Lord of the Furnace and the Toad God.

They had an excellent relationship, and Li Yu could get almost anything he asked for, such as being called over to help in a fight.

However, there was one thing that Li Yu could respond to with an extremely enthusiastic response with just a slight spiritual touch.

That's right!

It's something like what's happening right now, something that can harm old adversaries like Wanbian, the Curtain, the Fool God, and the Ancient Saint.

They will not only come to help without asking for any reward, but they will also choose to bring their own food.

Just like in that "scam" just now.

A crucial and bizarre fission reaction, and a storm of good fortune.

To perfectly deceive the rulers, both the Furnace and the Toad God had to bleed profusely.

But they were extremely pleased.

Especially since this scam will predictably offer more than just this moment of pleasure; the real climax will come when everything is revealed.

Now, the Furnace and the Toad God are already looking forward to that moment.

……

When Li Yu's "gang" first appeared outside the mortal world, it already caused a lot of surprise and confusion.

Even the Spirit Lords of the primordial era, although they did have good relationships with many evil gods and rulers in the neutral camp.

But what about a gang?
That's far from it.

Li Yu, a descendant of the Spirit Venerable, what merit or ability did he possess to surpass the Spirit Venerable in his abilities?

The answer is straightforward and simple.

This also reveals some fundamental differences between Li Yu, the successor, and Ling Zun.

While both are fond of doing bad things, the Spirit Lord almost always acts alone. He thoroughly enjoys using his authority to manipulate the gods, which is why he has such a notorious reputation.

Li Yu, on the other hand, was happy to share this joy.

That's why they easily lured the Furnace and the Toad God onto their "pirate ship".

Let's look at it from another angle!

It can be said that Li Yu corrupted the furnace and the Toad God.

Of course, the fact that he could lead people astray is enough to demonstrate how terrifying Li Yu was.

After all, no other being could have the ability to take these two along to harm the powerful rulers like Wanbian, Weimu, and Gusheng.

What's most frightening is that Li Yu hasn't even really exerted his full power yet.

If Li Yu felt it necessary, he could already be forming an even larger "super gang," but he simply doesn't want to for the time being.

Unlike the Toad God Furnace, he was not still staring at the successful scams in the chaotic universe, mocking his three old rivals.

Instead, they made other arrangements, since successfully stealing the Emperor's Chaos Egg was only the first step.

The real challenge lies ahead.

How can I ensure that I will be successfully promoted?

"I must be born before the end of the [Contest for Supremacy] mission, otherwise even if I ascend to godhood, I will pay an extremely heavy price, which is to lose the competition and lose the unique mission [Lord of the Demon Star].

"After being born, one must lead the human race in the chaotic universe to reverse their status within a relatively short period of time, at least becoming a dominant race..."

Li Yu's current thoughts and the difficulties he faced were enough to make even a powerful deity back down.

Putting everything else aside, let's just talk about the last one.

It's not something a powerful god could do.

The most typical example: the ancient Eldar.

The ancient Spirit Race was once the undisputed dominant race in the chaotic universe. After the entire race was transformed into nourishment for the birth of the Evil God and its potential was quickly realized, the Spirit Race, although not completely extinct, became a weak race.

Although there is actually more than one divine entity within the Eldar.

For example, the equally famous "God of Laughter"!
Unfortunately, none of it worked.

Based on the secrets Li Yu had previously gleaned from the "Spirit Clan Priestess Xing Lei," a large portion of them placed their last hopes on the "Spirit Clan Death God."

Of course, that's also a dead end.

Despite having a strong foundation, a large number of powerful individuals, and more than one divine entity, they still couldn't complete the task of becoming the Chaos Overlord.

How could Li Yu possibly do that?
The answer quickly surfaced in his mind:
"With my current cultivation level of ten times the normal level, combined with the [Secret Technique of Seizing Creation], and my Truth Soul Body that is completely immune to pollution... breaking through that extremely dangerous state of Chaos Without Support and hatching for advancement will be no problem at all. Not to mention this Chaos Egg, no Chaos Egg can stop me from advancing."

"As for guaranteeing a promotion before the mission ends?"

"It's not difficult. The vast human race, which has struggled in the chaotic universe for many years and is gradually seeing the dawn, the newly born [Humanity Church], and the most important Emperor Path... all of these indicate that this Emperor Chaos Egg with the potential to become a ruler is ready to hatch."

"Even without me, as long as it is thrown into the chaotic universe, there is a certain probability that it will be hatched."

"And when I devour it, and then invite the invincible luck of the Toad God to bless it, it means that the probability will skyrocket to almost 100%."

"The last problem is the most difficult!"

"Because this is a special main quest issued by the [Demon Star Order]!"

"That means that if I want to succeed, I will not only have to face the myriad chaotic gods, such as the God of Change, the God of Blood, the God of Evil, the Father of Compassion, the God of Doomsday Rat, and the God of Madness, but also other Heavenly Pride Lords!"

"This newest and largest batch of Commanders is far superior to the current Commanders in Wanfu City; the gap is too great."

"They will almost all be at the demigod level!"

"Moreover, those chosen by the Demon Star Token, which is upgraded to the 'King of Divine Artifacts,' are all exceptional talents, even among demigods, just like the [Yang Daoren], [First Corruptor], [Morning Star], and others who were defeated by me before."

"The difference is that this time I can't take shortcuts or use any leverage; it's almost a fair fight."

"So it's going to be very difficult for me to win this time."

"However, there is a lot I can do in advance."

"Fighting head-on may not be my forte, but scheming and plotting against people is my specialty."

When Li Yu thought of this...

Many unconventional tactics emerged in an instant.

For example, as the Lord of the Dragon's Nest, he already controlled a considerable human universe within the chaotic universe. He could have easily accelerated the growth of human destiny, usurped the Human Daoist religion, and facilitated guidance.

Humans are a race with considerable potential; the sooner they are brought together, the sooner they will unleash their full combat power.

In addition, Li Yu could also take action against certain races in advance.

"The situation in the chaotic universe is extremely complex!"

"Going it alone, I'm afraid we won't be able to become a dominant race, and we can't become the target of everyone's attacks all at once."

"Therefore, we need allies, such as the ancient Eldar, the mechanical Necromancers, and if the opportunity arises, we can also win over and utilize the Green-skinned Orcs and Skaven."

"The first two are easy to control with the help of 'Star Tear' and 'Little Robot'."

"The rest require other plans."

"Unfortunately, Hongdou is temporarily unable to spare the time. She is also ascending to godhood and evolving into a kind of [Goddess of Heavenly Craftsmanship]... She is still trying to control the Reincarnation Net... This special artifact that lured the Demon Star Token and ultimately made it grow into the King of Artifacts seems to be gradually losing its effectiveness, but it is probably not that simple."

"As for the Chaos Gods?"

“Ancient Saints are easy to deal with.”

"The four gods are much more troublesome, while the evil god is slightly better, as it can be caught by using the ancient spirit race."

"The rest of the entities...?"

"I'm afraid we'll still have to fight quite a few cosmic-level wars in the end."

Despite having glimpsed parts of the future, Li Yu remained expressionless and showed no joy.

He's already doing everything he can to cheat!
However, the task was still too difficult and enormous.

In the future he glimpsed through his Eyes of Truth, the human race was destined for war, and war would rage among many races.

This is not surprising at all; it's perfectly normal.

Despite Li Yu stealing the Chaos Egg with "Dominator-level potential" from a large group of Dominators in front of everyone.

His reputation soared once again, fueled by that storm of good fortune.

The Great Thief of the Boundless!

This title is gradually being bestowed upon Li Yu.

"pity!"

"Other things can be stolen, but the status of a hegemon cannot be stolen."

"The only way to achieve hegemony is through sheer force, by defeating and subduing the other races."

……

Even after considering all this, Li Yu still did not immediately devour the Chaos Egg.

Instead, as if remembering something else, the Eye of Truth turned its gaze to the demonic star space before it.

exactly!

They were looking towards the backstage area of ​​the Demon Star Order, those private areas belonging to the order's owners.

Special feature: Star cluster.

Because the Demon Star Order was initially only issued to humans in the present world who were related to evil gods, granting them the qualification of order holders.

Naturally, each and every star cluster, large and small, is also a human race leader.

If we consider the operation of the Demon Star Token as a massive game, then the human Token Masters of Wanfu City are the beta testers.

"Most insider players can gain some advantage and will become future strong players."

"But here, it's the other way around."

"Among the human race leaders in Wanfu City, apart from me, I'm afraid none of them have a chance of survival."

"They only have two choices ahead of them."

"First, relinquish the qualification of the leader."

"Second, forcibly participate in the [Title War], and then die at the hands of other demigod-level title masters of the same attribute."

"It's very unfair, but there's nothing we can do about it."

"The speed at which the Demon Star Token levels up is incredible. Before players have even left the starting village, the world map has already reached its climax, with all the strongest monsters coming out in droves."

"What's even more outrageous is that a large number of incredibly powerful players with special privileges were parachuted in. How are we supposed to play like this?"

"So, how many leaders will choose to give up?"

When Li Yu, the most powerful dog, was spying in the background and asking himself questions.

Unexpectedly, extremely intuitive information flow answers surged by.

Those were chat logs from the human race's lords within individual star clusters:

"What do you all think? Should we all give up? Although it's a pity to have such a heaven-defying opportunity, going to fight for supremacy in that chaotic universe is a certain death."

“There is indeed no hope. Although I cultivate the Blood God Path, the Blood God will not bless me. On the contrary, He will support His fanatical followers to kill me and merge with the Demon Star Token.”

"We are all like that, so it's no wonder that the Chaos Gods are like that. We are not fanatical believers. If it were us, we would surely bless our own servants as well."

"I will not give up!"

"I won't either. Even if it costs me my life, I'll still give it a shot and see the legendary chaotic universe."

"If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening!"

"With such a great opportunity in my hands, only a fool would give it up. Even if I only grasp a sliver of hope, I will one day ascend to a divine entity and have the chance to compete for the position of [Lord of the Gods]."

"The throne takes turns, and tonight it's my turn."

"If even a cute, androgynous, cross-dressing woman with a large penis can become a [God of Evil], why can't I?"

"The son of the Spirit Lord is a role model for us all. Speaking of which, this fellow is also treacherous and shameless. He actually chose the path of the vacant godhood. We haven't even left the newbie village yet, and he has already reached the top."

……

Even just looking at these conversations, you can sense it.

Within Wanfu City, the mental state of these demon star leaders is worrying.

It was a sure-fire death situation that anyone who wasn't a fool could see, yet very few commanders chose to give up.

That's fine, but as they talked, they all got really excited.

Their appearance and words!
If the fanatical followers of the gods in the chaotic universe were to see this...

He will surely fly into a rage, shouting heretics and blasphemers, and then torture them to death.

But after Li Yu peeked into the scene from backstage, he had a different idea.

Human cultivators in Wanfu City!
Every single one of them is a pervert.

Even if someone appears to be a normal person on the surface, they must have some unspeakable hobbies in secret.

This is easy to understand; how could a decent person be tempted to come to Wanfu City?

The master of the curtain is very picky about the grand plays he directs and the grand stages he sets up.

Those who do not meet the criteria will not be selected.
