Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 412 The Emperor's Banner! The 72 Generals of the Soul Palace Appear! (4k views, please continue reading)
In the vast primordial universe, there were two major camps.

The human faction's meeting point is the Primal Realm, while the allied faction's meeting point is Bloodfang Star.

On Bloodfang Star.

brush!brush!brush!
Amidst intense spacetime fluctuations, one after another, great beings tore through space, and in an extremely short time, more than 300 cosmic lords with imposing auras appeared.

There were only so many primordial universe masters, and they quickly gathered with their friends, indulging in the most precious wines and the rarest delicacies.

"We, the six most powerful forces, can easily annihilate mere humans!"

"Humans are too arrogant! Joining the Hong Alliance and paying some price to obtain inheritance is indeed attractive, but they only have more than eighty Universe Lords so far, right?"

"Seven of the strongest! And 340 cosmic lords, how can humanity possibly withstand them!"

"Humanity's methods have also been exposed; they are only relying on an immovable World Tree. All they need to do is spread out and bombard it from a distance."

"The World Tree? It can withstand the soul attacks of more than two hundred universe lords, I don't believe it can withstand the attacks of more than three hundred universe lords!"

Even the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, even with the most powerful soul treasures, cannot succeed!

"That's right, with the six of us joining forces, we easily crushed them!"

A group of universe masters chatted casually, which made the more than 20 newly joined universe masters from the idle races feel more and more confident.

The overall strength of the Human Alliance Universe Master is indeed stronger.

They are almost all fourth- or fifth-order universe masters.

However, the combined strength of the six top forces on their side is far greater, and their nearly four times the number of troops would be overwhelming.

What's more, there are seven of the strongest among them!
Many of the universe lords looked up at the sky, where seven great beings were talking, but their voices could not be heard within the realm of "words become law".

"This time, the main battlefield is an uphill assault!"
The real killer move is the Zerg Queen and the Dream Ancestor.

"Once the great battle breaks out, we'll force out the World Tree avatar and supreme treasure of the human Netherworld Lord, and then hold them off!"

The mechanical god spoke.

Before him, the six strongest beings—the Demon Ancestor of the Demon Clan, the Queen of the Insect Clan, the Demon Ancestor of the Prison Clan, the Holy Lord of the Crystal Clan, and the Leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance—all appeared.

The leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance originally did not want to take action.

It wasn't until the Machine Race Father God informed them of the plan to raid the Netherworld Lord's kingdom.

That's incredibly arrogant!

He was able to deduce that humanity must have a trump card.

But a mere ruler of the universe actually used a divine kingdom as bait, did he really think that the strongest being in the universe couldn't do anything to him?
Since he's already made a move, he wouldn't mind making another one.

The strongest beings in the universe are absolutely safe in the original universe.

It doesn't matter if we lose.

Perhaps this time we can sever the future of the Netherworld Lord, who is said to have talent surpassing that of the Primordial Ancestor!
"With the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader's domain supreme treasure, even if the Lord of the Underworld has the World Tree and the Soul Treasure, it is useless."

"With our combined strength, and the power of our numerous supreme treasures working together, we can crush them on the battlefield as well."

"You're right."

"This battle must be won quickly, without giving them time to grow, otherwise the strength of those universe lords who have just joined the Hong Alliance will also increase significantly."

"The Mountain-Sitting Guest is the most despicable. That old fellow not only refuses to join us, but he also bewitches the Illusory True Demon God. If the Illusory True Demon God were to join us, our chances of winning would be even greater!"

The Dream Demon Ancestor was somewhat displeased.

They also heard the words of the Mountain-Sitting Guest and the Illusory True Demon God during the last great battle.

Both the True and False Demon Gods intended to help, but were dissuaded by the Mountain-Sitting Guest.

If he didn't make a move then, it will be difficult to get him to do so later.

Even if the strongest individual's strength is suppressed to the top level of level six, they can still be comparable to 10 fifth-tier universe masters. They can move freely on the battlefield and have absolute initiative.

"Hmph! This old fellow is so mysterious, he didn't even lift a finger when his disciple died."

They are a group of beings at the highest level of the original universe. Over the long years, they have often fought against each other and have some knowledge of the other strongest beings.

However, they both feared and envied the mountain dwellers.

No one knows just how powerful the Mountain-Sitting Guest is.

Seventh, eighth, or ninth order?
The Mountain Dweller has never directly confronted the strongest opponent.

There is no exception.

Those who provoked the mountain hermit all suffered losses.

As this group of powerful beings from the primordial universe chatted freely, discussing the battle, how to make their move, and the strongest beings from other universes...

Just as they were getting into the conversation, suddenly—the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance stood up abruptly, his expression shifting between light and dark.

"Everyone!" The Zerg Queen's face also turned grim.

"what happened?"

"What happened?"

The Demon Lord of the Prison Clan and the Holy Lord of the Crystal Clan both looked over, their hearts filled with doubt.

What could have caused the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader, the Zerg Queen, to lose her composure like this?

"Just now, the 'Lord of Xuanhuo' from within the Northern Frontier Alliance led 11 Universe Lords to defect and join the Hong Alliance!" The Northern Frontier Alliance Leader said in a low voice.

No matter what, he is the nominal leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance!
He defected before the war.

The blow to the morale of the alliance was devastating.

"What."

"The Lord of the Mystic Fire has defected and joined the human camp?"

"not good."

Their expressions changed drastically.

Defection!
Once the news spreads, people's hearts will likely be in turmoil. Those newly joined idle universe masters may leave, and even the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance may stop taking action!
Their advantage will be completely lost.

"Set off immediately! Charge straight in! Don't give the humans a chance!" The Mechanical Race Father God roared angrily at the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader, whose expression was uncertain.

"All lords of the universe, enter the palace's treasures immediately!"

"Kill it!"

How incredibly intelligent are the Dream Demon Ancestor and the Zhen Demon Clan?
He instantly understood the meaning of the Mechanical Race Father God. On the surface, the defection of the Lord of Xuanhuo and others only resulted in the loss of 12 Universe Lords, but the chain reaction it brought was devastating.

It was extremely difficult for the Lord of the Star River to stabilize the Northern Frontier Alliance, largely because the Alliance Leader of the Northern Frontier agreed to take action.

If we don't act immediately, the chain reaction could cause even the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance to avoid battle, and then all the Northern Frontier Alliance members, as well as the more than twenty other independent race universe lords who joined later, would probably withdraw.

That leaves only the five top powers.

If the Prison Clan and the Crystal Clan waver again, what's the point of fighting?
"Act now!"

Once they enter the palace and set off with the treasure, they will know that the Lord of Xuanhuo has betrayed them, and they will have to take action.

Must be fast!

It must be resolved quickly!

"go!"

"go!"

The cosmic lords below, who hadn't yet reacted, quickly entered the palace's treasures upon receiving the order.

The leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance had a wrinkled face and a gloomy expression, but in the end he said nothing.

Open the bow without turning back the arrow.

The orders from the seven strongest beings in the universe were naturally given swiftly.

Less than a minute.

In the vast outer space of Bloodfang Star, seven enormous palace-like treasures float, each with more than 50 universe lords and the strongest beings in the universe presiding over them!
The last time the four-way alliance fought against humanity.

Why did humanity specifically target the Northern Frontier Alliance, while the Lord of the Underworld continuously slayed the souls of a universe's ruler?
This was not only because their forces were scattered, but also because they lacked the protection of the strongest being in the universe. If the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance had intervened at that time, even if the Lord of the Underworld were to unleash his full power, he would have been stopped by the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance.

The leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance is a true god and possesses the most powerful treasure in the realm.

In the primordial universe, I fear no one.

"This battle!"

"What we need to do is to fight our way to the human's original secret realm, and then we will work together to hold back the main force of humanity and the World Tree avatar of the Lord of the Underworld!"

"Destroy the Netherworld Lord's divine kingdom, and then annihilate all human universe lords!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

At the same moment, in the human realm, in the primeval wilderness.

Main hall.

"Lord of the Mystic Flame, welcome to the Grand Alliance!"

A smile appeared on the rugged face of the Giant Axe Founder. Before the battle, he had gathered a group of universe masters, which enhanced his own strength while weakening the enemy's strength and destabilizing their internal morale.

It has a greater impact than having thirty more universe lords.

On the surface, the human side, including the Lord of Xuanhuo who defected, only has 94 Universe Lords.

However, there are still 52 Qin Mingyouming Gods in the country.

Although the numerical disparity remains vast, in terms of direct combat power, humanity has nothing to fear!
So what if the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance possesses the most powerful and precious treasures in his domain?

Humanity's most treasured artifact, the "Universe in Your Hand," is completely unafraid of the strongest domain treasures within the primordial universe; in fact, when combined with the Myriad Soul Banner, it can even overpower them!
"Haha, welcome!"

Master Peng, Master Longxing, and others also walked up to greet them with smiles.

As fellow masters of weapon crafting, they had some acquaintance and were naturally in a good mood at this moment.

"Gentlemen, the Six-Party Alliance is already on its way. We must prepare to fight them. Enter the palace treasures and keep in touch in the virtual universe!"

The Lord of Chaos then spoke.

"it is good!"

Without further ado, the Lord of Xuanhuo entered the palace's treasure chamber under the arrangement of the Lord of Chaos City.

Since we've turned against each other, we have no choice but to go all out.

brush!brush!brush!
One after another, figures began to appear inside the main hall, a total of 94 figures quickly entering the palace's treasure.

After learning that the Hongmeng's legacy could be purchased with merit points, there have been many universe masters who want to join, as well as lone special life forms and universe masters from small clans.

After careful selection, the Lord of Chaos City chose a group of people who met the criteria and were powerful.

For example, one of the races is called the Protoss.

This race is an extremely rare energy-type race, yet they are naturally adept at manipulating machinery and possess exceptional skill in creating mechanical puppets, rivaling even the mechanical race in every way.

However, their population is small, and they have only one ruler of the universe.

After careful consideration, I successfully joined.

With the Protoss's mechanical technology capabilities, it is foreseeable that the technological level of the human race, such as spaceships and mechanical puppets, will see a huge improvement in the future.

Like the Lord of Xuanhuo and others, they each entered the palace's treasures under the arrangement of the Chaos City Lord.

Despite the significant difference in numbers, none of these universe lords panicked; on the contrary, they were quite excited.

Twelve cosmic lords defected before the battle!
Need I say more about the situation on the other side?

Confidence soars!

Moreover, their safety is guaranteed under the protection of the palace's treasures and the World Tree.

"In this battle, we should proceed steadily and cautiously! We must not be rash, and victory will surely be ours."

The Lord of Chaos transmitted his voice to all the Universe Lords who had entered the palace's treasures, and then looked at Qin Ming.

"Be careful, they could launch a surprise attack at any time."

Qin Ming nodded slightly.

Within the Nine Realms Alliance, the development of human races did not cease due to the outbreak of the great war.

Many Soul Clan warriors still open the Netherworld Gate to harvest souls.

No one will target them until the high-level war ends.

Eliminating the enemy's lowest-ranking members will only result in mutual destruction.

of course.

Once one side is defeated, that is the beginning of the massacre.

……

A primeval secret realm, a void filled with a thin mist.

Seven colossal objects tore through space and burst forth.

"We have arrived at the designated battlefield. One more teleport will take us to the heart of humanity. Prepare for battle!"

"Next, I will perform the teleportation technique for everyone!"

The voice of the Machine God resounded simultaneously in every part of this space-time.

He had already revealed the defection of the Lord of Xuanhuo during the journey, but the attack had already been launched, leaving no room for the weaker races to back down.

Whatever our thoughts, we can only discuss them after this final battle is over!
boom!
When they reappeared in the void, five supreme palace treasures were already floating there in a magnificent manner.

Qin Mingshan's giant clone and his human form stood in the void with the giant axe.

"Today, I will show you what the Emperor's Banner truly is!"

Qin Ming's human form held the Myriad Souls Banner, its surface fluttering in the wind.

Countless roaring souls burst forth, accompanied by an invisible soul domain that suddenly unfolded.

Where are the 72 generals of the Soul Palace?

boom! boom! boom!
One after another, top-tier cosmic overlords with incomparably powerful auras roared in anger.

The supreme cosmic overlord, 'Irina'!
……

The supreme cosmic overlord, 'Iron-Blooded Venerable'!
……

The supreme cosmic overlord, 'Lord Qixue'!
……

More than half of the 72 generals of the Soul Palace possess the aura of top-tier cosmic overlords!
Among them are Irina, who was nurtured by Qin Ming from a young age; Iron-Blooded Venerable, who broke through from the Immortal realm in the outer battlefield; and the 'Qixue Palace Master' from the Nine Domains Alliance, who was killed and absorbed!

"Soul attack! Kill!"

With a roar from Qin Ming, the cosmic venerables and even ordinary immortal souls that surged out from within the Myriad Soul Banner all launched a soul attack in coordination.

With the blessing of the Myriad Soul Banner domain, the invisible and colorless soul attack actually formed a wave-like impact.

At the same time, the 94 Universe Lords of the Hongmeng, and even the Giant Axe, unleashed soul attacks.

The Soul Domain provides a significant boost to soul attacks!
snort!
The invisible and colorless soul attack instantly struck the palace where the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader was located. The moment he appeared, countless stars suddenly appeared in the endless void around him.

Countless stars appeared out of thin air, and each star was faintly connected to the others by light.

boom! boom! boom!
The realms of soul and starlight clashed violently, vying for control of the space.

"not good."

"Soul attack."

The allied forces roared sharply, and their frenzied attacks erupted one after another.

They were prepared for battle when the Machine God teleported, but they were still caught off guard by the sudden soul attack!

Almost instantly, an invisible soul attack rushed into the palace where the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader was located.

"die!"
