Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 265 The Primal Ancestor's Gaze

Virtual universe, extraterrestrial battlefield, base 026.

The powerful warriors who fight in the extraterrestrial battlefields usually leave a trace of their consciousness in the virtual universe to receive intelligence and information about the extraterrestrial battlefields in a timely manner.

Qin Ming was no exception.

"That was incredible! Brother Yuan Yue, your battle was truly earth-shattering!"

"Haha, yes! Killing 19 Kings in a row in the area occupied by the Machine Race, including one at the peak of King status, that strength is truly terrifying."

"amazing!"

In the war hall, a group of powerful kings who didn't usually have much of a relationship with Qin Ming gathered around him, trying to become acquainted with him.

The Mechanical Race faction possessed a virtual world where the more than one hundred Immortal Kings discussed Qin Ming with their friends, describing his terrifying combat power.

One pass ten, ten pass a hundred.

The Zerg, Human, and Demon factions quickly received the news and were shocked by its contents. Such shocking news naturally spread like wildfire.

Among the human forces, those with the best information were naturally the powerful kings, and Qin Ming left a trace of his consciousness in the hall of the war base to gather information.

These immortals naturally gathered around.

"It's nothing, just borrowing the power of a treasure," Qin Ming said with a laugh.

"Treasures? Those are also part of strength!"

"That's right. The strong should naturally possess powerful treasures. For example, the Seven Sword King in our camp has a set of seven different styles of battle swords!"
Besides this set of treasures, it also possesses several other powerful treasures, including the Void Grip!

Beside him stood a winged human king, clad in dark red battle armor, with wings and golden eyes, whom Night Star King praised.

Due to factors such as the weakness of their divine bodies, the human race can only reach the peak of the King level without special opportunities. Only a very few people with special opportunities can break through this limit.

"Hehe, King Yechen is right! Brother Yuanyue might already be on the Mechanical Race's assassination list, ranking at the top."

Standing over ten meters tall, with hazy wings, an alluring figure, and a semi-transparent body, Star Illusion King chuckled softly.

The strongest and most talented individuals among the human races are almost always on the assassination lists of other races. For those who have reached the rank of King, this is actually an honor.

The Seven Sword Kings they mentioned possessed near-invincible combat power, ranking fourth among assassins of the Mechanical Race.

Qin Ming killed 19 kings from the mechanical race in one go, and before that he was only a marquis. His sudden display of such combat power naturally made him a target of close attention.

For Qin Ming, tens of millions of years is an extremely long time, but for a powerhouse at the peak of the King-level, even hundreds of millions of years is nothing.

It's possible that a single slumber could last for tens or hundreds of millions of years.

"Assassination List?"

Qin Ming shook his head. A mere peak-level King who possessed a powerful treasure was not a significant threat. He only had the combat power of a King at its limit, and was still far from being invincible among Kings.

Every king, invincible, possesses immense treasures.
His name is indeed on the assassination list, but that is his true identity. He is number one on the assassination lists of the three top races: the Zerg, the Mechanical Race, and the Demon Race!

If his identity were exposed and the alien races found out that he had killed a peak-level King with the strength of a Realm Lord, then things would get really messed up.

"drink wine!"

Qin Ming didn't waste any words and simply picked up his wine glass.

"Come! Come! Come!"

"drink!"

A group of powerful figures who had been granted the title of King raised their wine glasses.

The atmosphere on the field was filled with joy.

Qin Ming was happy to mingle with these powerful kings. More connections meant more relationships, which would allow him to stay informed in the extraterritorial battlefield.

As they were talking, a group of nine kings entered the war hall, their target Qin Ming.

"Huh, it's rare for the Hongmeng people to arrive so quickly!"

Upon seeing that group of people, Star Illusion King suddenly laughed.

"King Yuanyue, this must be an invitation for you to join the Hong Alliance."

"Then we must hurry! Judging from the strength shown by King Yuanyue, he can easily kill a peak-level King, or at least a King at the limit of combat power!"

King Yechen also laughed.

Following their gaze, Qin Ming also saw the nine kings.

"King Yuanyue."

The leader, a powerful human woman with long pink hair and a semi-transparent appearance, wore battle armor and smiled, exuding boundless charm.

"We are a special envoy team from the Hong Alliance. We have come here to formally invite King Yuanyue to join our Hong Alliance."

Qin Ming nodded; he also knew something about Hongmeng.

This is an alliance led by the human race, and immortal gods are usually invited when they are formally crowned kings.

"Immortal King" is the basic threshold for entering the Hong Alliance. If someone has extraordinary strength and can kill a King, the Hong Alliance will lower its standards.

In the Hongmeng, strength and battle record are valued more!

"Please be seated, everyone!"

Qin Ming reached out his hand. This war hall was originally a place for immortal powerhouses to chat and exchange information.

The Hongmeng members all sat down, observing Qin Ming with curiosity.

Before setting off, they naturally knew Qin Ming quite well. He disappeared for millions of years in the cosmic secret realm when he was conferred the title of Marquis, and many people thought he had perished.

It appeared suddenly, yet possesses such incredible strength.

Almost everyone is speculating that he must have obtained some kind of heaven-defying inheritance in the secret realm, otherwise his strength could not have increased so quickly.

"I don't know you all yet."

"Human, King of Desire." The leader was a stunningly beautiful human woman, dressed in pink battle armor that barely covered her vital parts, her exposed body appearing semi-transparent. Every smile and frown was captivating. "Fierce Clan, King of Lightning Chaser."

……

"I think you should also know the purpose of our visit. Hongmeng is a very inclusive alliance, formed by the human race and a large number of other races in the universe."

We won't force you to join, but once you join, you must not betray the alliance. Are you willing to join?

The King of Desire looked at Qin Ming.

This is the procedure.

All of humanity's strongest individuals are among them; everyone will join, as are the dozens present.

Even ancient human beings like the Lord of Chaos City, his nominal teacher 'Lord Youhou', and several senior brothers and Teacher Qianwu were among them.

Qin Ming naturally wouldn't refuse.

Joining Hongmeng has only benefits and no drawbacks.

"I'm willing," Qin Ming nodded.

The words fell.

"Ding!"

Suddenly, a dazzling star appeared in the air above the hall.

The stars shine brightly.

Then it gradually shrank into a stream of light, which flew directly onto Qin Ming's battle armor arm guard, revealing three small stars.

"boom!"

At the same time, a hazy human figure floated in mid-air.

Under that invisible pressure, everyone, including King Ye Chen and other kings, as well as Qin Ming, could vaguely see the light and shadow, but they were unable to look up and stare directly at it.

Just like when the Lord of Darkness truly unleashed his oppressive power, those at the King level had absolutely no ability to resist.

The human figure in the light and shadow bowed slightly, looking down at Qin Ming.

"Human 'King Yuanyue'!" The light and shadow emitted a voice, indistinguishable between male and female, that pierced straight to the soul.

"Welcome to join Hongmeng. From now on, you are an official member of Hongmeng!"

"A cosmic crisis is lurking. Our race needs to survive, and that requires the strong to fight. Fight for the Hong Alliance, fight for humanity. This is the mission of every strong human being, and it is also your mission."

The light and shadow gradually faded, but the sound continued to echo in Qin Ming's consciousness.

Beside this play of light and shadow, a slightly thin man wearing a simple white robe and a smiling face appeared out of nowhere.

However, Qin Ming and all the other powerful figures around him seemed to be completely oblivious to him.

"This little guy is interesting."

He looked at Qin Ming with incredibly deep eyes.

When Qin Ming passed through the Trial Tower, he noticed Qin Ming. The strongest genius of the human race for billions of years, with excellent soul talent, etc., were actually nothing in front of him.

Because he was the same way back then.

He could easily kill a peak-level King with the strength of a Realm Lord, and he might even be stronger.

But if it's a human body, then it's truly astonishing.

Because the limit of human gene multiplication is 100 times, even with the Amplification Secret Technique, Qin Ming only has 6,000 times the power of a World Lord. Even with great treasures, it is extremely difficult for him to contend with the peak of the King-level realm.

Not to mention killing them.

The trillions of military merits that the Virtual Universe Company's top executives, or rather the Chaos City Lord, commissioned for him, were actually mainly accomplished by Qin Ming through his clones, such as the Mountain Giant.

But Qin Ming, in his human form, forcibly killed him!

The white-robed man naturally witnessed the battle on the Yanji Continent.

Because he is the true master of the virtual universe—the Primal Ancestor!
The only tenth-order true god across three reincarnation eras, the first strongest being in the universe among the human race, and the greatest existence in the history of the human race.

The strongest being in the cosmic sea!
The founder of the Virtual Universe lineage, the teacher of the Chaos City Lord, the Dark Lord, the Ice Peak Lord, and others, and Qin Ming's grandmaster!

Creator of the virtual universe and the origin of the universe!

Coincidentally, the Primordial Ancestor was also skilled in soul attacks. Only a true god with the most powerful treasure guarding his soul could escape from him.

And the Lord of the Universe?
Even with a strong will and the most powerful treasures guarding their souls, they are still destined to die before the Primordial Ancestor!

Compared to him, Qin Ming now is like a grain of light compared to the sun—the difference is insignificant.

Even his most proficient soul attack was considered too naive by the Primordial Ancestor.

With the perspective of the Primordial Ancestor, how could he not see that when Qin Ming killed King Jiu Jian, he relied not on soul attacks, but on the purest power?

"Breaking the original rules of the universe? And that peculiar soul-splitting technique..."

Yuan Zu smiled as he looked at Qin Ming.

Although he was sealed away, before he was sealed away, he used the secret technique 'Virtual Universe' to leave humanity with the strongest foundation, and also put the entire primordial universe under his surveillance.

The primordial universe holds no secrets for him, if he so desires.

"Let me see just how far you can grow!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the ancestor's figure disappeared.

……

"Fight for the Hong Alliance, fight for humanity..."

Qin Ming looked at the light and shadow, but he didn't notice the Primordial Ancestor at all, nor did he know that everything he did was being seen.
