Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 210 An Opportunity Amidst the Vortex of Malevolent Energy
Are there no decent strong individuals?
Upon hearing Qin Ming's words, Luo Feng didn't know what to say.

These are all cosmic-level secret realms!

Only geniuses of cosmic caliber can enter.

For the five top powers of the human race, it is normal for cosmic-level geniuses to possess the combat power of a domain lord, and some top geniuses even have the strength of a high-level domain lord.

But that's basically the peak.

Only a genius like Luo Feng, who can possess an avatar, can challenge a World Lord level being through the help of a Domain Lord level avatar.

But this is already the limit under normal circumstances!
Immortality is an existence they absolutely cannot contend with.

In almost all dangerous missions, there are immortal gods! To obtain huge rewards, one must walk a tightrope and experience life-or-death crises.

But Qin Ming...

He came here to buy goods.

When Irina possesses the combat power of a King, even if she is only barely comparable to a King, her achievements in the soul would allow Qin Ming to roam freely in the secret realm.

Just as Qin Ming had thought, the powerful figures of the Immortal Temple were also secretly watching.

When they saw Irina easily kill two Immortal Lords, all the Immortals felt a chill run down their spines.

Rising stars like 'Ba Qi' still dare to rebel and try to break free from the heavens.

Those immortals who truly knew the power of those beyond the heavens had long since given up in despair.

Many of them have already chosen to secretly defect to humans.

Do you really think that the higher-ups of humanity would allow a strategic treasure like the 'Blood Crystal' to circulate freely?

Therefore, it is self-evident who will ultimately control the Temple of Immortality.

Luo Feng was a smart man, and with just a little guidance from Qin Ming, he understood the reasoning behind it, but his expression became even more complicated.

What good would it do him to know?

I understand. He can't defeat an immortal even if he's already defeated one!

"Hehe, in the Blood Luo World, you can slowly train. This world is very beneficial to you and can also temper your will."

Qin Ming looked at Luo Feng and smiled.

While he was chatting with Luo Feng, the refining process for the two immortals had already begun inside the Myriad Soul Banner.

134 Blood Crystals were found on the 'Wild Beast Qi Niu'.

The wild beast Qi Niu was originally in charge of managing the distribution of Blood Crystals to the Blood God Guards under 'Ba Qi'. Most of the Blood Crystals were in its hands, with other Blood God Guards also having one or two.

In addition, there are two immortals.

After collecting them all, the total number of Blood Crystals exceeded 1000, with the majority naturally belonging to the two Immortals.

Having gained experience from refining the 'Death Soul Jade' on Visca Star, Qin Ming immediately began refining the 'Blood Crystal' using the Myriad Soul Banner.

Almost exactly the same.

As the refining process began, the triangular prism blood crystal slowly decomposed, and as it decomposed, images of roaring monsters appeared, resembling smoke.

Clearly, this is the will contained within the Blood Crystal!
Humans also know how to refine blood crystals. Every 100 blood crystals can be refined into 1 drop of beast god's blood, with the same effect as blood crystals.

However, the refined Blood Crystal, without any internal will-based impact, can easily elevate one's life level.

Qin Ming doesn't plan to give the Blood of the Beast God directly to Luo Feng for the time being.

Experiencing a test of willpower in the Blood Luo World is a good thing for Luo Feng, as a strong will is what allows a person to go further.

In the original timeline, Luo Feng's will wasn't that strong from the beginning.

Instead, it grows stronger step by step.

The Blood Luo World, the inheritance of the Demonic Sound God General, and the final Star Tower inheritance—if one doesn't undergo sufficient trials, even Luo Feng would find it difficult to overcome them.

After all, the Star Tower is no ordinary supreme treasure!

As a treasure crafted with great effort by the God-King Sitting Mountain Guest, the Star Tower itself is a weapon of the God-King.

And this is only the exterior of the Star Tower.

During the forging process, the golden light that flew in completely transformed the Star Tower, which was already a weapon of the God King. Without a sufficiently strong will, it would be impossible to become its master.

"Indeed! I have gained a lot in this Blood Luo World over the years, and I don't plan to leave for the time being."

I have a premonition that if I can enter the core of the vortex of malevolent energy through my own will, I will surely gain something significant.

Luo Feng nodded and looked at the core of the vortex in the giant pit.

"There are also phantom images of beast gods that appear from time to time in the baleful aura, from which I have also come to understand some mysteries."

As they spoke, a huge, blurry image, hundreds of kilometers in size, appeared in the distance within their field of vision.

Vaguely...

It was an image of a giant lizard, with a single, sharp horn pointing skyward from its head!

In the blurry image, a giant hand descends from the sky, while a monster about a hundred kilometers long in the image lunges forward with its head raised.

As it pounced, its long 'lizard tail' lashed out and struck the enormous hand hard.

boom!
The image has vanished.

The malevolent energy flowed slowly, and everything disappeared.

The first time Qin Ming saw this scene, he could sense that it contained extremely profound laws.

In Qin Ming's deduction, that simple pounce, tail whip, and that enormous hand all contained world-destroying power, even stronger than Teacher Qianwu's!

Only occasionally can one sense this kind of charm in a teacher with a dark personality.

As the strongest special life form born from the primordial universe, the Golden Beast God was born as the master of the universe, and those who surrounded and killed it were naturally also masters of the universe.

"This is the phantom of the Beast God? Truly extraordinary!"

Qin Ming exclaimed in surprise.

He doesn't follow the path of the Beast God, but one can still discern some of the underlying principles and nuances within it.

"I'm going to check out the core of the evil energy vortex! Later, we'll go to the Immortal Temple together, and you can pick out some good stuff then."

A hint of curiosity flickered in Qin Ming's eyes.

For him, the phantom of the Beast God was of little use, but the chains of laws contained within the vortex of malevolent energy might have a surprising effect.

Although the Golden Beast God is governed by the Law of Metal, it also contains the Law of Space!

And that's exactly what he needs.

"A vortex of malevolent energy? Brother Ming, be careful. The deeper you enter this vortex, the stronger the impact. If you can't withstand it, you might go mad."

Luo Feng reminded him that he often ventured into this vortex of malevolent energy. He knew how intense the impact of the malevolent energy within was. Although his mental fortitude had greatly improved through continuous training over the years, there was still a considerable gap between him and the point where he could enter the core of the vortex.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

As he spoke, the space around Qin Ming fluctuated again, and three enormous immortal gods appeared: Ziqian Wanshe, the Flame Bull, and the Blood Feather Eagle.

“If I go into the vortex of malevolent energy, you might be targeted by the beings of the Immortal Temple. Let them protect you for a while. If there are any problems, I will come out immediately.”

"This is... an immortal god?"

Luo Feng was stunned. He had only met Qin Ming for a few minutes, but the impact he had received in that short time had repeatedly shattered his understanding of the world.

Enslaving the Zerg Queen is one thing, but they've even enslaved the immortal gods?

These three immortals exuded an aura that was even more powerful than that of the two beings from the Immortal Temple!
"It's nothing serious that Irina enslaved them. Including those two immortals in the Temple of Immortality who are in a coma, we'll enslave them later too."

Qin Ming smiled, also giving Luo Feng a heads-up.

"Were those two enslaved too?"

Luo Feng was somewhat bewildered. Was this still the aloof and immortal being?

"Haha, you can do it too in the future, it's no big deal."

Qin Ming laughed and said, "When you become the King of the Blade River, not to mention these Immortal Army Lords, even the King-level Immortals will be just little Karamis who can be taken down with a single strike."

Having said that, Qin Ming didn't delay any longer and flew directly into the huge vortex.

"Boom~~"

A giant vortex like blood was constantly spinning, causing evil spirits to roll from afar, and the core of the vortex was like a red sun.

Wearing the Flowing Cloud Wing Armor, Qin Ming flapped his wings and kept moving closer to the core of the vortex.

As they drew closer, the killing intent intensified.

Come, child.

"bring it on!"

"Roar--"

"Enjoy the slaughter..."

An invisible temptation accompanied the invasion of killing. The powerful killing intent crashed against Qin Ming's will like a tidal wave, affecting Qin Ming's will while he was also tempted by that invisible force.

However, faced with this onslaught of murderous intent, Qin Ming's expression turned sour as he flew inside.

Although his killing intent was strong, after being impacted by the wills of hundreds of millions of monsters within the Myriad Soul Banner, his mental will was like a reef in the sea, remaining unmoved no matter how much it was impacted.

"Such a strong will! You surpassed me so easily!"

Luo Feng followed at a distance, watching as Qin Ming seemed oblivious to the impact of the killing intent, easily approaching the 'vortex core'.

Then it disappeared into the core of the malevolent vortex that resembled the sun.

"Don't compare yourself to him! This guy is a freak. He was incredibly strong back on Earth, and now that he's become the disciple of 'Lord Youhou,' his strength is naturally even greater!"

Babata sat on Luo Feng's shoulder and comforted him.

"Once you've settled down for a while longer and passed through the ninth and tenth levels of the Sky Bridge, you'll definitely cause a sensation at the Virtual Universe Company, and you might even become an apprentice of the Lord of the Universe."

"No need to comfort me, I'm not that fragile..."

……

At the core of the malevolent energy vortex—in the red sphere of light.

Qin Ming flapped his wings and flew forward slowly. When he broke through the outer layer of the red light sphere, he saw a shocking scene.

“Ang, Mo, Da…”

A voice that pierced the soul kept echoing in Qin Ming's consciousness.

Ancient musical notes without any discernible pattern, each note containing a supreme, endless, and ancient aura.

The inside of this red sphere is hollow.

There was not a trace of red malevolent energy.

In the middle are only golden runes as thick as an arm, each one incredibly complex, totaling 12 golden runes hundreds of meters long, nearly a thousand meters long.

These secret patterns intertwined and swirled in this space.

A chilling, awe-inspiring aura emanated from these 12 golden runes.

At the same time, the 12 enormous golden runes emitted golden light, enveloping the area.

Golden light flowed slowly, making the surroundings seem like a sacred realm.

The flowing golden light continuously revealed three images: a monster resembling a giant lizard, raising its sharp horns and looking towards the sky.

It was none other than the phantom of the Beast God that had been seen in the outside world before!
The twelve enormous golden runes radiate light, forming a naturally occurring image that reveals the source of the external illusion.

Each image appears and disappears at different times.

"Violent!"

"hold head high!"

Ancient, primitive sounds, seemingly devoid of intelligence, echoed faintly in my ears, as if traversing billions of years.

"These are the secret runes of the laws!"

Looking at those 12 chains of law, Qin Ming was shocked. He had never seen the secret runes of law so clearly before.

Even in Chaos City, the secret patterns in the sky are extremely small and simple!
The 12 enormous secret runes, each as thick as an arm, may seem like just 12, but in reality, each rune is composed of countless tiny runes intertwined and constructed.

"What a great opportunity!"

Qin Ming exclaimed in surprise, these 12 secret runes contained a large number of spatial law secret runes!

As it gazed at the chains formed by countless secret patterns, the massive body of the River of Souls frantically deduced, and countless insights instantly surfaced in its mind.

Over the years, he had been practicing the fourth level of the secret techniques of "Dark Codex" and "Black Hole Evolution," and his understanding of the laws of space was already quite profound.

Seeing these most intuitive spatial runes, all the doubts in my mind suddenly disappeared.

"It seems we don't need to rush to the Temple of Immortality; we can study it first."

Qin Ming was overjoyed.

This is just one of the spatial runes contained within a vortex. Around the Immortal Temple, there are a total of 10081 super-large evil energy vortexes.

Aside from the Blood Crystal, this is the greatest opportunity on the Blood Continent.
