Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 421 Cosmic Sea Tremors! A New Storm
"Give me?"

Giant Axe's expression shifted, clearly showing some interest.

The most powerful treasure!

Who doesn't want that?

Although what he wanted most was an attack-type artifact like a battle axe, everyone needs something like the Supreme Artifact Armor.

Being able to weaken attacks to one millionth, combined with his strength, means that he can now roam freely in the cosmic sea, and even the two holy lands and the Divine Eye Clan cannot do anything to him!

Why didn't he dare to reveal his strength in the cosmic sea?
It's because there isn't a suitable supreme treasure!

"You killed the Dream Demon Ancestor, and this is your spoils of war. I cannot accept it. In the future, when you venture into the Cosmic Sea, you may face many dangers."

Although tempted, the giant axe still spoke.

Compared to him, Qin Ming has already become the most important one in the human race.

To put it bluntly, if anyone else were to perish, including himself, Qin Ming could gather their souls and revive them. But if something were to happen to Qin Ming, that would be a real problem.

"Danger? I still have the Queen's Palace! The Zerg Queen and the Dream Demon Ancestor have already been revived in my Netherworld God Kingdom, as long as I don't seek death."

With my strength, who can pose a threat to me?

Qin Ming smiled confidently.

Seeing Qin Ming's confident demeanor, Giant Axe and the surrounding Universe Lords were all stunned, shocked by the resurgence of the Zerg Queen and the Dream Demon Ancestor, and also awestruck by Qin Ming's strength.

Leaving aside the two true gods, the Zerg Queen and the Dream Demon Ancestor, Qin Ming's strength to kill the Zerg Queen is something that probably no one in the entire universe could do.

With such strength and the supreme treasure of the palace, there are very few things that can pose a threat to him!
The most outrageous thing is that Qin Ming is also the Lord of the Universe!

The Lord of the Universe who possesses three incarnations!
Its ability to preserve its life is so strong that it is simply unparalleled in the universe.

"The news that my divine kingdom devoured the miniature universes of the Dream Demon Ancestor and the Zerg Queen should have already spread, and perhaps humanity will be targeted."

Now that you have the Supreme Treasure Armor, Giant Axe, we can go hunting together from now on.

Humanity may not possess many supreme treasures, but it certainly doesn't lack those from the First Cycle Era, the Second Cycle Era, or those two sacred lands.

Seeing that the giant axe hesitated, Qin Ming smiled.

He didn't bother to think about why the original ancestor hadn't gone on a killing spree, but he was certainly no 'good person'.

The cosmic ocean is not the original universe.

Whenever such an encounter occurs, and there is a significant disparity in strength between the two sides, the stronger party will inevitably resort to plunder.

Especially the cosmic lords of the first cycle era, all of them went mad because of their impending doom.

"To hunt down other strongest beings?"

Upon hearing this, the giant axe laughed and no longer hesitated. He grasped the supreme treasure armor in his hand, and his divine power instantly refined it, revealing an armor made of countless scales on his body.

Its aura suddenly became much stronger.

"Then go!"

He dared not reveal his strength in the cosmic sea, and he suffered countless grievances.

Otherwise, in the original timeline, after obtaining the Divine Axe and increasing his strength, he wouldn't have directly engaged in battle with the three true gods of the Divine Eye Clan.

"Haha, but you'll have to wait a while longer. After this battle, although we don't plan to take action against other forces for the time being, my Netherworld will be made public."

It will take at least tens of thousands of years of work.

Qin Ming laughed.

Having just defeated the Allied Forces, they could easily continue hunting down the remaining strongest beings in the Primal Universe, as well as the rulers of the Idle Race Universes, if they wished.

However, there is no need to rush.

His strength has increased too quickly.

They lack sufficient foundation in all aspects, but after a period of consolidation, their strength can be further enhanced.

He was like this, and so were the other cosmic lords of the human race.

After the great war ends, the souls of those universe lords can be divided to strengthen their power. This includes those universe lords and overlords who consumed the souls of alien lords.

Before long, the overall strength of the human race will rise to a new level.

Humanity's territory expanded too much at once. The Nine Realms Alliance hadn't even finished conquering its territory when the Zerg were completely wiped out, and humanity had to take over their territory as well.

These core territories must be firmly held in our hands.

It's even uncertain whether the Northern Frontier Alliance can survive after this defeat.

With such a vast territory, it would be difficult for humans to consume it all.

To expand again?

We're short-staffed!

The total number of human populations would need to increase by at least a hundredfold to truly establish a foothold.

There is no need to rush into expansion before stabilizing the existing territory. It would be better to carry out internal reforms to better cultivate strong leaders.

Once things stabilize, expansion can proceed gradually.

Human beings at the middle and lower levels also need opponents to hone their skills.

The extraterritorial battlefield was originally established by the four top races to hone their middle and lower ranks. Now that humans have the God of War potion, they cannot lack opponents, otherwise how can they cultivate talent?

Of course, these things had little impact on his expansion of the underworld.

The world of the living is left to Master Uncle Chaos City Lord.

However, the world of the 'dead' falls under his control. With the Zerg Queen and the six queens of the universes under his command, he can easily operate the Netherworld.

Even if it's expanded a hundredfold or ten thousandfold, there won't be any problems.

The Netherworld's combat power is terrifyingly strong.

If we don't expand now, when will we?
"Tens of thousands of years is nothing, it will pass in the time it takes to take a nap. I have just obtained this treasure armor, and I also need to study it for a while."

Giant Axe chuckled.

The most powerful treasures all possess special runes and contain secret techniques. Only those with a strong enough understanding of the laws can truly unleash their power.

Normal, supreme treasures all have at least six layers of secret patterns.

Generally, the top-tier combat power is achieved through the third level (sixth rank), the fourth level (seventh rank), the fifth level (eighth rank), and the sixth level (ninth rank). Some even possess seventh, eighth, or more levels of runes.

With the secret patterns as a reference, one can better create their own secret techniques.

Even with its supreme treasure armor, the Dream Demon Ancestor was only at the peak of the seventh rank, and had not unleashed the armor's true power.

The giant axe that rose from the early days of the primordial universe has gone through countless epochs.

A single retreat, a single moment of enlightenment, may be hundreds of millions of years in the making.

It was only after Qin Ming appeared that time began to pass so slowly, measured in years!
There was no way around it; every few decades or centuries, Qin Ming always managed to come up with something truly awe-inspiring, forcing Qin Ming to keep a close eye on him.

"Yes, that's what I think too. I also need to study this Queen's Palace carefully."

Qin Ming laughed.

It's more than just the Queen's Palace.

After the transformation of the Myriad Souls Banner was completed, the diameter of his Netherworld Divine Kingdom expanded to a hundred billion light-years, and a large number of strange secret patterns appeared on the banner itself.

These secret patterns are also extremely complex, and he needs to carefully study them.

"And then there's Master Uncle Chaos, Teacher Darkness. After the great battle, the souls of those universe lords should also be properly distributed according to their battle merits..."

After recounting the story of the giant axe, Qin Ming smiled and looked at them.

He's really made a fortune this time.

It's hard to say about the numerous souls of the cosmic lords, but they certainly don't lack treasures.

He absorbed the cosmos of both the Dream Demon Ancestor and the Zerg Queen, which is equivalent to him raiding the homes of two peak races!
The treasures of the elite clans are numerous.

Where is the safest place?

Nature is within the microcosm!
For example, the Virtual Universe Company's treasure vault is also located in the initial universe. If the universe lords of the human race want to exchange for treasures, they need to go to one of the side halls in Chaos City to do so.

With these treasures, his three human avatars could all be upgraded to a full set of top-tier treasures.

……

The cosmic sea.

The war in the primordial universe is not only of concern to the universe lords within the primordial universe, but also to many powerful beings in the cosmic sea.

If humanity loses, that's fine too.

If they win, it will mean the emergence of a new cosmic overlord in the original universe, and perhaps the next God-Eye Clan.

The first cycle era, the second cycle era, and even the powerful figures of the two holy lands are all paying attention in different ways.

"What? The Dream Demon Ancestor is dead?"

"Even the Zerg Queen is dead?"

When the news spread, all the powerful figures who were paying attention to this great battle were shocked.

This is probably one of the few strongest beings in the universe to have died in the primordial universe across countless cycles of reincarnation, and the dominant position of the human race will be unshakeable.

No one, no force, dares to challenge humanity again.

A rising hegemon is already emerging.

The reputation of the Lord of the Underworld quickly spread throughout the entire universe.

Qin Ming had not yet entered the Cosmic Sea, but his deeds were already circulating there, making it clear that he was an existence that should never be provoked.

Although Qin Ming killed the Dream Demon Ancestor and the Zerg Queen within the Divine Kingdom, his strength is absolutely beyond doubt.

However, some strong individuals quickly realized what was happening.

Miniature universe!

The biggest difference between the strongest in the universe and the master of the universe is that after their divine kingdom evolves into a microcosm, it appears openly in the cosmic sea.

The Dream Demon Ancestor's microcosm and the Tremor Demon Ancestor approached each other.

The Zerg Queen's microcosm is located in a separate region.

When the strongest being in the universe falls, their microcosm begins to disintegrate, their internal structure collapses, cracks appear in space, chaotic energy flows in, and life perishes.

However, the treasures inside are still there!
The fall of each of the universe's strongest beings is an absolute feast for life in the cosmic ocean.

It would be alright if the strongest being in the third cycle era, which is the original universe, were to perish. But if the strongest being in the first or second cycle era were to perish, then all life forms attached to their microcosms would perish instantly!
Even the ruler of the universe is no exception.

"go!"

Immediately, powerful individuals from the vicinity swiftly flew towards the Zerg Queen and the Dream Demon Ancestor's microcosm.

The cosmic sea is vast and cannot be teleported to by a divine kingdom.

However, many areas are connected by wormholes, allowing for instantaneous travel.

It didn't take long.

A golden streak of light flashed and approached the location of the Zerg Queen's fallen cosmos.

"Huh? The location is right? Where did the Little Universe go?"

A figure appeared in the golden light.

He was stunned when he saw the empty area. He carefully checked the surrounding environment and coordinates, and then flew around quickly to take a look.

He was certain he hadn't gone the wrong way.

"And what about such a large microcosm?"

soon.

More powerful beings arrived. Although they were the strongest beings in the universe during the third cycle, as one of the top races, their collections must have been considerable, naturally attracting the covetous eyes of many other powerful beings!
But they were all disappointed; the miniature universes of the Zerg Queen and the Dream Ancestor were gone!

Everyone was confused.

Even the two holy lands sent powerful figures to investigate.

Until, in the primordial universe, the Machine Race Father God, the Crystal Race Holy Lord, the Demon Lord, and others released an image from their divine kingdom, showing the scene of the Dream Demon Ancestor's small universe falling before the Zerg Queen fell.

The cosmic sea has boiled.
