Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 383 Qin Ming: The Mountain Hermit and I are Good Friends

There were nine super powers in the original universe. Each super power, such as the Machine Race and the Zerg Alliance, had about 40 universe lords.

The Northern Frontier Alliance has the most Universe Masters... but there are only about 100 of them, and they are quite scattered!
Therefore, the primordial universe was relatively peaceful.

Therefore, the human race broke through to nine Universe Lords at once. In addition to the Lord of Qianwu and Qin Ming himself, each of them was at the fourth or even fifth level.

The balance of power has been directly broken.

Furthermore, Qin Ming possesses an incredible resurrection ability, capable of even reviving the Lord of the Universe after his death, which has become the greatest source of confidence for the expansion of the human race.

But apart from super powers, there are actually more scattered groups or solitary special life forms.

Originally, during the great war between different races in time and space, the strongest lone warrior, 'Lord of the Primordial Island,' pulled together a Free Alliance.

There are six major secondary powers, and many more smaller powers that have come together to form a total of 282 powerful clans, with more than 400 universe masters!
In the primordial universe, the most numerous beings were either idle groups or masters of special life forms.

At this moment, the several universe lords that Qin Ming sensed within the palace were all universe lords from solitary, independent forces.

Such a coincidence?
Qin Ming chuckled and followed the God of Craftsmen into the main hall.

The palace table was laden with all sorts of rare and precious materials and fine wines, many of which Qin Ming had never even seen before, demonstrating the extravagance of the God of Crafts.

In terms of wealth alone, even someone like the Lord of Chaos City is probably not as wealthy as the Lord of Craftsmen!

The title of the number one weapon refiner in the primordial universe is not just for show.

However, Qin Ming's gaze did not fall on the fine wines and delicacies, but rather on the three figures inside the palace, revealing a mysterious smile.

Seeing Qin Ming's smile, the Master of Craftsmen's heart sank.

These three were naturally his friends, whom he had specially invited to oversee things after being informed in advance by the Lord of Dragons.

With them around, even if Qin Ming wanted to do something, he would have to think twice.

The weakest of the three is a fourth-order universe master!
One of them even reached the fifth rank, a terrifying existence even among the Lords of the Universe.

If it weren't for the turmoil in the primordial universe, they would all be adventuring in the cosmic sea. Upon hearing the news, they all rushed back, partly to protect their race and partly to seek their own benefits.

"This is the Netherworld Lord who rose to power during the rise of the human race. He possessed the combat strength of a universe master when he was a universe lord, and when he broke through to the universe master level, his divine power vortex was tens of millions of kilometers long."

The master craftsman remained expressionless and, after taking his seat, immediately began to introduce himself as the host.

"Lord of the Underworld, let me introduce you. This is the Lord of Ten Thousand Flowers."

Qin Ming looked up and saw a creature with a head that was surrounded by petals and resembled a plant stamen. The anthropomorphic flower stamen face also showed a smile.

"I've heard of the Lord of the Underworld for a long time, and now I've finally met him."

A gentle voice came, giving people a feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze, and a faint fragrance permeated the air, as if it were harmless to humans and animals.

However, Qin Ming knew that the Lord of Ten Thousand Flowers was a special plant life form with a body that was millions of kilometers long, making it extremely difficult to deal with.

"Nice to meet you!"

"This is the Lord of Purple Mist."

This is a special life form called Purple Mist, whose entire body is composed of a special mist. It excels at soul attacks and illusion attacks, and its methods are quite bizarre.

"Heh, so this is the Lord of the Underworld? I've heard you're also skilled in soul attacks and weapon crafting?"

The Lord of the Purple Mist narrowed his eyes, his gaze quite hostile.

As soon as the words fell, a powerful pressure surged towards Qin Ming, seemingly trying to test his strength.

Qin Ming smiled.

"The Book of Life and Death - Chaos of the Gods!"

boom!
A terrifying force, ten or even a hundred times stronger than that of the Purple Mist Lord, burst forth and, in an almost brutal manner, directly entered the Purple Mist Lord's body.

The Lord of Purple Mist froze, his eyes filled with terror.

will die!

He might die!

Under the impact of that overwhelming will, he almost fainted, and his soul felt as if it were being torn apart.

How can it be?

Wasn't this Lord of the Underworld just a breakthrough? He was a top-tier fourth-order Universe Lord, and he was most skilled in soul and illusion attacks, yet he was defeated in one move in his own area of ​​expertise?
Do not!
Just one look!
"Lord of the Underworld!"

Beside the Lord of Purple Mist, a being whose entire body was like that of a rock, exuding a terrifying aura, roared and his aura suddenly exploded.

Fifth-Order Universe Lord!

"Lord of Junji, you want to try too? I didn't make the first move."

Qin Ming let out a low shout without any politeness, and his enhanced aura actually suppressed even the Lord of Junji, causing the Lord of the Craftsman God to twitch his eyelids.

How can it be!

He guessed that Qin Ming might be very strong, but wasn't that a bit too outrageous?
Although the Lord of Junji is not as renowned as the Lord of Chaos City, he is still considered powerful among the fifth rank. How could he be so easily suppressed?

"Gentlemen, this is my God of Craftsmanship Star, please give me some face! Lord of the Underworld, on behalf of Ziwu, I apologize to you. He was just being reckless."

The God of Craftsmen stood up and respectfully addressed Qin Ming.

He had originally asked the Lord of Purple Mist to test Qin Ming, but he never expected Qin Ming's strength to be so terrifying that it made him tremble and dare not have any more ulterior motives.

"Easy to say."

Qin Ming smiled slightly and withdrew his aura.

The Lord of the Purple Mist turned deathly pale. Just a moment ago, he felt as if he had fallen into endless darkness, his mind trembling and his will almost fainting.

"For the sake of the God of Crafts, I will let it go this time, but if there is a next time, you will perish."

Qin Ming looked at the Lord of Purple Mist.

This is the planet of craftsmen!

It's like entering the interior of a flying palace treasure. If you really turn against the God of Crafts, that would be quite troublesome.

The group sat down again, and with the God of Crafts mediating, the atmosphere wasn't so tense for a while.

After three rounds of drinking.

The God of Craftsmen finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked.

"I wonder what important matter the Lord of the Underworld has brought to my God of Craftsmanship Star?"
If you need me to craft a supreme artifact, just ask. I'm not good at much else, but I do have some experience in crafting supreme artifacts.

He didn't believe that Qin Ming had come all this way just to discuss weapon crafting with him.

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming put down his wine glass and smiled.

"I have indeed come to see you today for some business, so I'll get straight to the point. Besides wanting to discuss and exchange ideas on refining supreme treasures, my main purpose is to invite you to join my Hong Alliance!"

The God of Crafts sighed inwardly, "Just as I thought."

The only way to get someone as formidable as Qin Ming to come here is to recruit him into the Hong Alliance.

"If the Lord of the Underworld wishes to discuss and exchange ideas on the crafting of supreme treasures, I welcome you with open arms."

But joining the Hongmeng is out of the question.

I am just a weapon refiner and have no desire to join the power struggles among the major forces in the primordial universe.

All I want to do is refine a supreme treasure in this Yinfa Secret Realm.

And incidentally, to protect some special life forms within this secret realm.

The God of Crafts sighed, but his expression was extremely resolute.

"Master of Crafts, there's no need for you to refuse. Why don't you listen to my conditions first?"

Qin Ming smiled, seemingly unconcerned.

"As long as you are willing to join my Hongmeng, I can give you a legacy from ancient times."

Moreover, I am good friends with Zuo Shan Ke.

If you choose to join, you might be able to make further progress in the art of weapon crafting.

　This chapter was a bit rushed due to time constraints, so it's slightly shorter than usual.
