Swallowed Star: The Original Secret Realm

Chapter 169 Slaying the Lord of Sinking Fire
Sensing his location, Zhang Yi flew swiftly in one direction.

Guided by his surroundings, Zhang Yi continued his journey. Along the way, he occasionally encountered several alien universe lords. Sensing Zhang Yi's unfamiliar yet powerful aura, they dared not provoke him easily.

As time passed, Zhang Yi flew for more than ten days and got closer and closer to the location he was being guided to.

Boom! Suddenly a loud noise came from afar. Zhang Yi stopped and flew towards the source of the noise. He sensed a familiar aura.

Sure enough, upon arriving at a mountain range, Zhang Yi saw a familiar figure. The humanoid figure with a robust body and nine fiery red tentacles was none other than the Lord of the Sinking Fire who had previously been chasing Zhang Yi.

The Lord of Sinking Fire, who had just killed a top alien universe overlord, turned around as if sensing something. When he saw Zhang Yi who had come close, his eyes instantly became wary, and at the same time, there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Who is this powerful cosmic ruler? He's never seen him before.

You should know that there were only so many universe masters in the original universe, and he had lived for countless years and knew almost all of them.

After thinking for a long time without figuring it out, the Lord of Sinking Fire simply assumed that a lucky cosmic venerable from a remote race had broken through.

Just as the Lord of Sinking Fire was about to leave.

“Leave behind the treasure of that top cosmic overlord of the Northern Frontier Alliance.” Zhang Yi’s light laughter rang out.

"What?" The Lord of Sinking Fire looked at the unfamiliar Lord of the Universe in surprise. "These are my spoils of war, and you want me to hand them over?"

Zhang Yi stared at him from afar, his voice continuing: "I am an old acquaintance of the Star River Lord of the Northern Frontier Alliance. You killed a powerful member of his alliance, so it is only right that I take back the treasure for him."

"Lord of the Star River? Who are you trying to fool!" Lord of the Sinking Fire roared and turned to leave. If he hadn't sensed Zhang Yi's immense aura, he would have already charged at him.

"The most urgent task now is to find the treasure. When the opportunity arises later, hmph! I'll let him know how powerful I, the Lord of the Sinking Fire, am," the Lord of the Sinking Fire thought to himself.

Boom! A dazzling gunshot flashed, and a silver light shot straight toward him, seemingly containing the nascent form of a small universe.

"Damn it!" Sensing the intense energy fluctuations behind him, the Lord of Sinking Fire angrily wielded two enormous divine hammers to meet the spear shadow.

He was still roaring, "I'll show you what I'm capable of!"

Boom! The divine hammer and the shadow of the spear collided, producing a loud sound.

In the instant of the collision, the divine hammer was directly shaken off, and the spear shadow landed on his chest, its terrifying power reaching the limit of his top-tier treasure armor.

The immense impact caused his divine body to tremble violently as he was thrown backward.

"One shot instantly annihilated 60% of my divine body." The Lord of Sinking Fire's eyes widened in disbelief.

His original divine body had a life gene multiplier of over a thousand times, wore top-tier treasure armor, and his divine body was over a thousand kilometers long. A single strike annihilated 60% of his divine body. There are only a handful of such super beings in the entire primordial universe.

Can this really do it?
"You are a fifth-order universe lord?" The Lord of Sinking Fire was no longer arrogant as before, his eyes filled with fear.

Every fifth-tier master is renowned throughout the universe, yet this unfamiliar powerhouse also possesses such strength.

His response was another spear thrust straight at him.

Boom! The Lord of Sinking Fire was completely annihilated.

However, before the Lord of Sinking Fire's enormous body was completely annihilated, a silvery-white liquid appeared on Zhang Yi's body, instantly devouring part of the divine body and disappearing back into Zhang Yi's body.

"Haha, the treasure is mine now."

Zhang Yi's divine power surged forth, directly taking away the pair of enormous divine hammers and the top-tier treasure armor floating in the air.

He immediately transformed into a streak of light and left the place. In mid-air, Zhang Yi felt a surge of excitement.

"The power of the primordial embryo is truly formidable."

To prevent the Lord of Sinking Fire from discovering his identity, he only used the Reincarnation Spear to unleash a secret technique of the Lord of the Universe that he had never used before. Its power was close to that of a sixth-order Lord of the Universe, and even slightly stronger than the strongest fusion secret technique of the Lord of the Star River.

This is still because his secret technique is not strong enough. After all, the power of a single unit embryo itself can reach the top level of the fifth order!

Like Luo Feng in the original novel, when he used the Primal Blood Shadow Blade to perform 'Nirvana Rebirth', the power directly reached the upper limit of the primordial universe, the top power of the sixth rank.

"What a wonderful treasure!" Zhang Yi couldn't help but exclaim. Unfortunately, he absolutely couldn't use it outside the universe until he had the strength to protect himself, otherwise a whole group of the universe's strongest beings would descend upon him.

Zhang Yi felt a message being conveyed to him by the silvery-white liquid.

"Hmm?" Perhaps I can do this when I'm scrambling for the treasure. Zhang Yi revealed a strange smile.

In the Burning Fiery Secret Realm, a giant eye suddenly opened on the massive mountain range that stretched for hundreds of millions of kilometers, its eyes filled with terror and confusion.

"Who is this strange cosmic ruler? He's so terrifying?"

Although his Nine-Huo True Body was only a second-tier Universe Lord, only a handful of people, such as the Star River Lord and the Chaos City Lord, could kill him in just two moves.

After a moment's thought, he reported the message to the Demon Ancestor of the Demon Clan.

In the demon realm, in that virtual space.

"Zhen Yao, you said that the Lord of Chen Huo sent word that his Nine Huo True Body has perished?" Meng Yao Zu said.

The Demon Ancestor's scarlet eyes glowed red as he said in a low voice, "That's what he said. He also said that he was killed by a strange universe lord in just two moves."

"Two moves? A strange universe lord?" Dream Demon Ancestor was full of doubt. "Does the Primordial Universe have such a person? Even the infamous Blood Cloud Palace Master doesn't have this kind of strength, does he?"

“I think so too, but the Lord of Sinking Fire has no reason to lie.” Zhen Yaozu was also puzzled, and then said, “Regardless of whether it’s true or false, let’s tell this news to our clan’s Lord of the Netherworld first.”

"There's no need for the Zerg and the Mechs. I've also told the Lord of the Sinking Flame not to leak this information."

The three races were only forced to form an alliance because the human Zhang Yi posed too great a threat, but they already had a great deal of enmity with each other. Now that they were vying for the treasure, they naturally no longer formed an alliance.

In mid-air, Zhang Yi flew side by side with a figure.

Upon closer inspection, the figure beside him was none other than the fallen 'Lord of Sinking Fire'.

"Haha, when outsiders see me, they'll all think I'm from the demon race's camp." Zhang Yi glanced at the 'Lord of Sinking Fire' beside him and laughed heartily.

After the silvery-white liquid absorbed part of the Lord of Sinking Fire's divine body, it transmitted the message to Zhang Yi that he could transform.

Suddenly, a thought popped into Zhang Yi's mind.

He had his Nine Nether clone use a portion of the silvery-white liquid to transform into the appearance of the 'Lord of Sinking Fire,' then put on that top-tier treasure armor, and wield two divine hammers, just like the real Lord of Sinking Fire.

At least Zhang Yi couldn't tell the difference.

He then used the remaining silvery-white liquid to continue his disguise.

Unexpectedly, this silvery-white liquid could actually disguise both his true self and his clone at the same time.
