Devouring the Stars: Withdrawing Talents

Chapter 458: Still have brains?

In the mysterious land of Yanshen, somewhere in the starry sky.

"This is Jie Jia!"

Emperor Yan looked at Yang Wu, who had an expressionless face, and a completely transparent exquisite armor appeared in his palm, as if it was carved from a huge diamond. There were faint secret patterns flowing and changing on the transparent armor, sometimes appearing and sometimes lurking.

The entire Tribulation Armor is in Emperor Yan's palm...

It was as if an insurmountable mountain was pressing down on his heart, causing Luo Feng to hold his breath completely and also causing Yang Wu to look sideways slightly.

The Jiejia has spawned a large number of soldier armors, general armors, king armors, and emperor armors. It is the super treasure that Zuoshanke prepared for his three disciples.

Even during the long years of Emperor Yan's reign, he had not been able to obtain a treasure on his own that could rival the Jie Jia and Yan Shen Ji.

"Haha, Third Junior Brother!"

Emperor Yan smiled at Luo Feng. He instinctively felt disgust towards this third junior brother...

Because Zuo Shan Ke cultivated him with all his strength back then, Emperor Yan could be regarded as one of the most outstanding geniuses in the universe, and now Luo Feng was no worse than him.

Emperor Yan was dismissive of his eldest brother Puti, and he regarded him as a servant of the teacher Zuo Shanke...

Much weaker than him.

But to Third Junior Brother...

Emperor Yan was extremely vigilant. He even knew that his third junior brother would possess the most powerful treasure, the Star Tower, in the future.

Emperor Yan saw a huge threat in Luo Feng, but Luo Feng was the third disciple that Zuo Shan Ke had cultivated with all his heart, so he had no way to stop him.

"The Jiejia is a supreme treasure in the vast universe."

Emperor Yan looked at Luo Feng and said, "Its power is endless. You have only just achieved immortality, and your strength is too weak to fully unleash its power. In fact, it is very likely that this armor will be lost in your hands."

"As for the Robbery Armor, I will give it to you, Brother Yang Wu, for safekeeping. You should practice more and improve your strength to become a Universe Venerable. It won't be too late to get the Robbery Armor later."

After saying that, Emperor Yan used his divine power to drag Jie Jia towards Yang Wu. His purpose was self-evident, and he knew that Yang Wu would be tempted.

"Luo Feng, put it away!"

Luo Feng immediately stretched out his hand, and the divine power like a thread directly wrapped around the armor. A trace of divine power penetrated into the armor, and the mark of life was imprinted on it. At the same time, the armor suddenly transmitted an ancient message into Luo Feng's consciousness.

Whoosh!
Luo Feng flipped his hand and put the robbery armor into the world ring.

How could Yang Wu not know the sinister intentions of Emperor Yan? What surprised him was that Emperor Yan actually had some brains.

If it were a human race, any Lord of the Universe except the Lord of Chaos City would probably be attracted by the ultimate treasure, the Jiejia.

The Lord of Chaos City would also be tempted, but given his personality, he would still return this treasure to Luo Feng.

But Yang Wu...

After just a slight glance at this robbery armor, he no longer had any thoughts. He would have a better one, and it was only a matter of time.

"Humph!"

"Human, the robbery armor has been returned. Please leave our territory immediately."

Seeing that Yang Wu pushed the Jiejia to Luo Feng without hesitation, Emperor Yan snorted coldly and then teleported back to the palace in the heart of the territory.

"Let's go!"

Yang Wu took Luo Feng and teleported across hundreds of billions of light years, instantly leaving the territory of the Yanshen clan, and then teleported back to the human territory through the kingdom of God.

……

The Yanshen Clan, the core continent.

In the highest main hall of the Void Palace Complex, Emperor Yan stood outside the main hall, leaning on the railing and looking through the void.

"Humph."

"Third Junior Brother..." Emperor Yan said softly, "How amazing! The inheritance of life and death... The first two candidates who defied the heavens died, but he actually succeeded." Although he was very unwilling, Emperor Yan knew in his heart that the hermit cast a wide net when selecting his disciples. There were countless generations of life on Earth, and after billions of years, only Luo Feng had succeeded.

This is not only due to Zuo Shan Ke's cultivation, but also because Luo Feng himself is very outstanding.

Emperor Yan had survived many hardships in the past, and he knew that the difficulties set for him by Zuo Shanke were not that severe.

The inheritance of life and death that his third junior brother encountered was truly terrifying. The two previous inheritors who had amazed him both perished because of this inheritance of life and death.

"The robbery armor was finally taken away by him."

Emperor Yan also gradually calmed down. Although he was wary of Luo Feng, he didn't take it to heart.

After all, even if Luo Feng became the Lord of the Universe, even if he owned the Star Tower, he would at most be one of the most terrifying and invincible beings among the Lords of the Universe. He could suppress him, but it was not enough to kill him.

"Human, Yang Wu!"

Emperor Yan was very wary of Yang Wu. Not only was he extremely powerful, but he also had no bottom line at all. He was even capable of doing things like slaughtering entire tribes.

"threaten me?"

"He actually threatened me with the Yanshen Clan?"

Emperor Yan gnashed his teeth in hatred, but there was nothing he could do. Before, when he was trapped in the opponent's territory, he could still rely on his Jie Jia to resist a little.

But now all the armor is gone. If he falls into the enemy's territory, he may really be in danger of falling.

"The strongest one!"

"Unless I can become the strongest in the universe, I will always be controlled by others in this primitive universe."

Luo Feng, Yang Wu, and Zuo Shanke were like thorns hanging deep in Emperor Yan's heart, and he was afraid that they would suddenly prick him one day.

Especially the last hermit, who has always been the object of fear of Emperor Yan.

Before, he had three treasures: the Original Soul, the Flame God Spear, and the Tribulation Armor. He was not afraid of anyone like the Lord of Chaos City, the Lord of Monto, etc. Although the most powerful existence among the Lords of the Universe could suppress him, they could not kill him.

But he was afraid of the hermit and wary of the strongest person in the universe.

They have reached the ranks of the strongest people in the universe. Each of them is extremely powerful, their words are laws, they can easily change the laws, and they have complete control over certain areas.

It is only because of the suppression of the laws of the universe that the strength displayed is only slightly stronger than that of some beings such as the Lord of Chaos and the Lord of Monto.

"Only by becoming the strongest can one truly be the best!"

There was desire in Emperor Yan's eyes. He had a strong ambition and was unwilling to surrender. It was precisely because of this ambition that his strength increased rapidly.

Although he had the training of Zuo Shanke, it was indeed up to Emperor Yan himself to comprehend and make breakthroughs in cultivation.

He is now already the top existence among the masters of the universe. As long as he takes one more step to reach the highest position, he will be among the strongest in the universe.

"Take one more step, Master Zuoshanke, and I will be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with you. But this last step..."

Emperor Yan immediately turned around and returned to the main hall.

"The original star will be opened in ten thousand years. By then, we may be able to obtain a treasure that can rival the Jiejia." Emperor Yan said silently.

But Emperor Yan understood that the probability of this happening was extremely low.

He experienced the opening of the original star several times, and although he obtained many treasures, most of them were ordinary ones. There were very few high-level treasures, and no top-level treasures at all.

Of course, through his exploration, killing and fighting in other areas, he also spent endless effort to prepare a top-level treasure armor as a backup.

But treasures are afraid of comparison. The top-level treasure armor and the robbery armor are completely two levels apart.

"Humph."

Emperor Yan returned and sat on the throne, looking at the endless void, then closed his eyes and silently waited for the original star to open.
