Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 448 Hunting Down the Lord of the Qianwu!

After the Purple Moon Holy Land issued its kill order, the cosmic lords of the Purple Moon Holy Land immediately began to take action.

The kill order commanded them to kill the human universe master.

There are naturally rewards in the Purple Moon Holy Land. Over the long years, the Purple Moon Holy Land has issued similar kill orders more than once.

Each time, a group of cosmic lords rise up as a result.

Their approach is quite interesting.

That is, they collectively avoided the Inclined Peak Realm where Qin Ming and Giant Axe were located, and focused most of their power on the Cosmic Boat and Flowing Heavy Mountain.

The Lord of the Underworld was too powerful; even the Lord of the Deer and Insects was annihilated by his soul.

Its attack power, reaching the pinnacle of the ninth rank, terrified all the universe lords of the Purple Moon Holy Land.

Even the two remaining strongest individuals were unwilling to provoke them.

Even with the most powerful treasures protecting them, they might not be able to withstand it!

Just like the original ancestor, everything that passed by retreated.

Once you encounter the Primordial Ancestor, unless you possess the most powerful and precious soul treasure, even the strongest being in the universe will die!

Qin Ming's displayed strength was slightly weaker than that of the original ancestor, but not by much, and no one was willing to face him.

The combination of the supreme treasures of the Soul Realm and the supreme treasures of the Palace is terrifying.

Moreover, there was a powerful giant axe next to him.

But just because the Lord of the Underworld and the Giant Axe are terrifying doesn't mean that other humans are afraid of them!
If they can't beat Qin Ming and Giant Axe, can't they at least beat other human universe masters?
Since Qin Ming is in the Qingfeng Realm, all the universe lords in the large area surrounding Qin Ming's activity range have retreated.

Even those who were unwilling to leave because of important matters hid away.

Yet the cosmic lords of the Purple Moon Holy Land within the Cosmic Boat and Flowing Mountains remained confident.

The cosmic sea is so vast that even the strongest beings would need a very long time to travel from the Peak Realm to the Cosmic Boat and Flowing Mountain.

This is enough time for them to surround and kill the human universe master.

Even if one is reincarnated, so what?

Before the Lord of the Holy Land Universe, he is still no match!
The universe masters who emerged from the two holy land universes are extremely powerful, and they can live through countless reincarnations.

Anyone who can emerge from the Holy Land universe will at least be a fourth-order universe master.

Many of them are fifth-order universe lords like the human Chaos City Lord, and there are also several sixth-order lords like the Deer Insect Lord!

What can humanity use to fight against the Purple Moon Holy Land, besides the Lord of the Underworld and the Giant Axe?
The universe masters of the Purple Moon Holy Land are all absolutely confident that they can crush humanity and wipe out all the human universe masters!
Even if it has clones, it will kill so many humans that they dare not enter the cosmic sea.

Without sufficient training and practice, one's abilities cannot be improved.

This is also the view of many forces in the cosmic sea.

The Purple Moon Holy Land has an extremely deep foundation. Even though a group of universe lords have fallen, their strength has recovered after several cycles of reincarnation!

Even if they are truly no match for humanity, what's wrong with the Purple Moon Holy Land hiding within its own universe for one or two lifetimes?

Unless the human race produces multiple strongest individuals, or a lord of a holy land emerges, the human race will not be able to survive.

Otherwise, if a real battle breaks out, the Purple Moon Holy Land can attack or defend, advance or retreat as needed.

Humans, however, can hardly retreat.

Therefore, when the Lord of the Universe of the Purple Moon Holy Land inside the spaceship learned of the appearance of humans, he immediately set off.

……

Purple Moon Holy Land, Purple Moon Cliff.

"I just received some news! News about the Human Universe Master!" A silver-clad woman with three heads and eight arms said excitedly.

"Humanity as the master of the universe?"

"They've finally appeared! Who is it, and where are they? How many are there?"

"They have just entered the spaceship and are still in the outer realm."

The cosmic rulers of that human race are all reincarnated through some special means, so they cannot truly and completely reveal their identities.

However, it can be roughly determined that one of them is the Lord of Youhou, and there are two others with him, who should both be newly promoted cosmic lords.

One of them is the Lord of Celestial Eclipse, and the other is the Lord of the Dry Witches!

"what?"

"The Lord of the Qianwu?"

There was an uproar.

The cosmic lords present had all investigated the human cosmic lords and were even more aware of what the Lord of the Dry Witch meant.

That was the Lord of the Underworld's first teacher!

Moreover, although he was the teacher of the Lord of the Underworld, his own strength was quite ordinary. He had fallen three times when he was a Venerable, and he was not even a cosmic overlord.

If it weren't for the good fortune of meeting Qin Ming, he would have been just an ordinary Venerable.

Even after becoming the master of the universe, his performance in the inter-clan wars showed that he was only at the fourth level.

However, the merits he gained from killing people in the Purple Moon Holy Land were much more than many fifth-tier individuals, and could almost be directly exchanged for a supreme treasure!
"Is the news confirmed?"

"It's basically confirmed. I've had people verify it repeatedly. This is what Lord Youhou said himself when he talked to them."

"Okay! I'm on the spaceship, I'll be right there!"

"Count me in, let's go together."

"Haha, what a big fish! Besides the Lord of Qianwu, the Lord of Tianshi and the Lord of Youhou are also senior brothers of the Lord of Youming."

Each of them has made numerous contributions.

"Be careful, they will most likely have clones after reincarnation. If you want to kill them, it's best to use Soul Annihilation directly!"

Some of the universe lords present immediately set off, while others who had good relations with the first and second reincarnation eras immediately tried to verify the authenticity of the information.

The powerful figures of the Purple Moon Holy Land have different temperaments. Some are not warlike, while others are extremely warlike!

Because when their lifespan becomes incredibly long and has no end, they have no way to break through and become the strongest beings in the universe.

This has caused some cosmic rulers to become extreme, wicked, and insane. And this was all ordered by the Purple Moon Ancestor!

Most of the universe lords within the Purple Moon Holy Land are fanatically worshipful of the Purple Moon Ancestor, and will carry out orders madly as soon as they are given.

Almost instantly.

More than a dozen universe lords responded, and then called on their friends, planning to join forces to kill the Lord of Qianwu and others, in order to obtain that immense merit.

"Feng Long, are you going or not?" A short, golden-haired man in black armor asked the giant with sixteen arms on all four sides.

"Of course I'll go. Killing a fourth-tier universe lord will grant me an extremely powerful treasure. Such an opportunity is too rare to come."

The giant known as the Lord of Sealing laughed heartily. They were all stationed in an area called Flame Water Lake within the spaceship.

This is also a small gathering point of the Purple Moon Holy Land within the inner domain of the Cosmic Ship.

Inside the spaceship, there are some places with a very high probability of finding treasures, and Flame Water Lake is one of them, so they forcibly occupied it.

Most importantly, they were very close to the coordinates of the Lord of the Dry Witches and his party.

"Alright! Let's set off together!"

They feared the Lord of the Underworld, but they craved treasures even more! They craved the most powerful and precious treasures!

……

Inside the spaceship.

The flames burned fiercely, occasionally condensing into a huge tongue of fire that streaked across the void.

A bronze palace flies through flames, and an area within a radius of 80 light-years centered on the bronze palace is shrouded in a kind of flowing light field. Explore and fly cautiously.

"The spaceship is truly amazing. We've only been here a short time, but we've already encountered numerous dangers. It's far more interesting than the original universe."

The Lord of the Dry Witches stared intently ahead at the endless flames.

"Of course! How can the dangers of the primordial universe compare to those of the spaceship? This is one of the three most dangerous places in the cosmic sea!"

Lord Youhou laughed loudly.

In the past, he wouldn't dare come to such a place alone; entering the spaceship meant just wandering around the outer realms.

If one were to venture deeper into the inner regions, the natural environment alone would be unbearable.

I want to go to the Inner Domain.

They need at least fourth-tier strength!

"It's truly amazing. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have found it hard to imagine that there could be such a huge flying ship!"

I wonder how powerful the being that piloted this spaceship must have been back then.

The Lord of Eclipse also had boundless longing in his eyes.

Both he and the Lord of the Qianwu were visiting the Cosmic Sea for the first time. After navigating through numerous perilous locations, they finally arrived at this cosmic vessel.

The shock I felt when I saw the spaceship was overwhelming.

"Everyone who has seen the spaceship is just as curious! But such beings have been gone for far too long."

Lord Youhou shook his head; of the three, he was the most experienced.

"We still need to be careful when the three of us are together. If the Purple Moon Holy Land issues a kill order, we might be targeted."

"What's there to be afraid of! I still want to clash with them and see just how strong that Lord of the Holy Land is. I might even make a fortune in the process!"

The Lord of the Dry Witches, however, had his eyes shining.

He loved this kind of adventure, and his strength increased greatly after his reincarnation. Although he had not yet comprehended the fifth-order secret technique, he was definitely the top among the fourth-order masters.

The most wonderful thing is that with Qin Ming's Ten Thousand Souls Banner branch, that treasure known as the Human Emperor Banner, they can summon other human powerhouses at any time!
Even Qin Ming and the giant axe could be quickly moved.

"I currently only have a suitable treasure on my main body; the other two clones are still empty." The Lord of Eclipse revealed a sinister smile.

These newly crowned rulers of the universe are poor!

Although he could ask Qin Ming for a loan, and Qin Ming might give it to him directly if he asked, both he and the Lord of Qianwu had a sense of dignity.

Looting is acceptable.

Asking Qin Ming for it would be too embarrassing.

"I wasn't much better off. In the past, I was too weak and didn't encounter any good treasures."

Lord Youhou shook his head; he was poor too!
"Our goal on this trip is the Towering Demon Pillar (Black-Patterned Stone Pillar), which requires us to pass through 892 extremely dangerous areas."

You can call for help when you encounter an enemy, but you can't call for help for every natural danger you encounter; it's better to be cautious.

"Yes, don't worry. Although this is our first time in the Cosmic Sea, it's not our first adventure."

The lord of the Qianwu also became cautious.

The decision to go to the Heavenly Demon Pillar was made unanimously by the three of them after discussion.

There is no other reason.

All three of them improved their strength too quickly. Lord Youhou was doing better, but Lord Qianwu and Lord Tianshi Palace rapidly rose from Universe Venerable and top Universe Overlord to fourth-order Universe Lord.

Their willpower and methods are still somewhat inferior to those of the established fourth-tier forces.

So he decided to find a place to temper his will and finally chose the Towering Demon Pillar.

This is one of the countless wonders inside the spaceship.

The Heavenly Demon Pillar is quite magical, radiating endless will-force impacts; the closer one gets, the more terrifying those impacts become.

Moreover, the closer you get to the Tower of Heaven, the faster the flow of time becomes!
Not only can it temper one's will, but the closer one gets, the greater the time acceleration it can achieve.

This is the most suitable option for universe lords like them who possess clones, have too short a cultivation period, and have shallow foundations.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, the experienced Lord Youhou, who was in charge of reconnaissance of the domain's treasures, frowned, but then relaxed.

"You two were absolutely right! We've been targeted. The Universe Lord of the Purple Moon Holy Land has come looking for us!"
