Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 483 The Dark God's Admiration, Time Accelerated a Million Times!
"I'll give it a try and see how strong my willpower is after the breakthrough."

Seeing Qin Ming transform into an arc of light and fly towards the black rock pillar, the Dark God was also itching to try it himself.

Tens of thousands of years ago, before he took Qin Ming as his disciple.

His will had already reached the level of the strongest in the universe. Otherwise, during the war between races in the original timeline, he would not have been able to suppress 12 universe lords, including the Lord of Annihilation, on his own.

Over these tens of thousands of years, his strength has increased extremely rapidly.

It was both the essence of the soul and a reincarnation as a top-tier special life form, and then it obtained the complete inheritance of the Purple Moon Holy Land.

Now, he has even broken through to the level of a true god.

Observing the evolution of chaos caused his strength to increase rapidly in a short period of time.

It is important to know that observing the evolution of chaos is the greatest opportunity for all true gods. After the transformation, many true gods will not break through their strength for one or two reincarnations.

Therefore, with the foundation of the Dark True God, breaking through would make him an eighth-order True God.

If he were to take with him the Illusory Sound Sea, the supreme treasure of the domain bestowed upon him by Qin Ming, his strength might reach the ninth rank!
He just hasn't found the right opportunity to verify it yet.

Seeing the black rock pillars now fills me with an irresistible longing.

"Haha, teacher, let's give it a try together."

Qin Ming looked at the Dark God with a smile.

After the Lava Demon God's true spirit was refined, Qin Ming nurtured it with the True Spirit Fire during the journey. With the World Tree accelerating the process ten thousand times, its intelligence has been greatly enhanced.

They're not that smart, but they're not much different from the average person.

Qin Ming didn't need to direct the collection of supplies from the secret chamber.

Not only that.

The significant increase in intelligence has changed the Lava Demon God's fighting style from straightforward punches and kicks to something else entirely. If it were to be returned to the God-Slaying Abyss now...

The amount of bloodshed must have been staggering.

Therefore, Qin Ming is fully free to do what he wants.

The Black Rock Pillar Space was Qin Ming's destination from the very beginning.

Luo Feng can enter his Netherworld Divine Kingdom and strengthen his will by being impacted by the evil energy within, which can accelerate the absorption of the soul's essence.

However, this method was of little use to him.

His soul strength and willpower are too strong.

Through repeated forging, it has already undergone a complete transformation.

"go!"

The Dark God flapped his wings and transformed into a streak of black light, rapidly chasing after it.

Under the watchful eyes of numerous powerful humans, as well as the powerful cultivators who had been cultivating in seclusion at Black Rock Pillar No. 2, the two continued to fly towards Black Rock Pillar, rapidly traversing among the dense rocks.

As they got closer to the No. 12 black-patterned stone pillar, the powerful impact of its will grew stronger.

"Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!"

It sounded like the furious roar of a massive army fighting.

The will impact contained in all the black rock pillars is the same, so others can roughly judge the intensity of the will impact at the locations of Qin Ming and the Dark God.

"That position already represents the will of the strongest beings in the universe."

The giant axe watched from behind.

Qin Ming had a strong will, but he was also curious about just how strong it was.

Qin Ming's cultivation time was too short.

Logically speaking, one's willpower shouldn't be very strong. A strong willpower often requires a long period of tempering to reach a peak.

But Qin Ming showed an extraordinary will from the very beginning.

Far surpassing any genius or strongman of the same level.

Both continued to fly inwards.

The Lord of Darkness also observed Qin Ming from time to time. As his disciple, Qin Ming had already surpassed him in strength and other aspects without anyone realizing it.

This made him quite gratified.

However, even though he was being surpassed, he still harbored a competitive spirit.

Qin Ming was very strong, but he actually used a special secret technique to command many powerful people in the Netherworld God Kingdom, achieving a similar effect to a combined attack.

However, this ability is far more perfect than a combined attack.

It's almost a perfect blend.

It appears that Qin Ming is fighting alone.

But their wills are different.

The strength of will cannot be achieved through any external force.

During the flight, the Dark God could feel the rapid flow of time around him. This was a characteristic of the Black-Veined Stone Pillar; the closer one got, the stronger the impact of will and the greater the speed of time flow.

Seventy thousand times, eighty thousand times.

The Dark God frowned slightly; he was already feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

He was originally a powerful figure who followed the path of illusion and soul magic, and his will was stronger than that of the strongest in the universe. But here, his will was almost approaching that of an eighth-order true god.

Qin Ming, however, seemed completely unaffected.

Ninety thousand times, one hundred thousand times the flow rate.

Space itself was slightly distorted. Time was flowing extremely fast, and powerful waves of will swept through, attempting to destroy everything.

The Dark God's expression turned somewhat pained; the impact of the will here was too intense.

When the force was pushed to 12 times, the Dark God could not withstand it and quickly began to retreat.

He could sense that if he rushed forward any further...

He might perish!

If he were to cultivate a time flow that is approximately 10 times faster, that would be truly suitable for him.

Among the black-patterned stone pillars, the one who ventured the furthest was the Lord of the Bechi Star.

According to him, the time flow there is only about 13 times.

But Lord Beichi Star was already a ninth-order True God!
However, Qin Ming remained completely at ease, without the slightest discomfort.

Under the watchful eyes of a group of powerful figures, it continued to fly forward.

13 times, 15 times, 20 times, 25 times...

Qin Ming's expression gradually turned serious.

The flight speed also slowed down, and the powerful impact of the will caused Qin Ming to frown. Gradually, his flight speed also stopped.

This is his limit.

"With a time flow rate of approximately 30 times, my will is almost at the limit of a Void True God. It seems that I need to surpass the level of a Void True God and reach the level of an Eternal True God to overcome this hurdle."

Qin Ming actually knew very well.

The impact of the black-patterned stone pillar's will is the limit of the eternal true god.

He is still quite a distance from that level.

“It’s just perverted!”

Looking at Qin Ming, who was far behind him, the Dark God couldn't help but sigh. He had guessed that Qin Ming's will was probably stronger than his own.

But I didn't expect it to be this much stronger!

He's three times stronger than him!
The higher one's will becomes, the more terrifying it becomes, and the more difficult it is to improve.

"No wonder Qin Ming's soul attack is so terrifying. It seems that this is not only due to the support of the strongest person in the Netherworld God Kingdom universe."

Indeed, if one's own will is not strong enough, how can one control this power?

The Dark God was completely convinced.

In the distance, the powerful beings of the cosmic sea who were observing had long since fallen into a deathly silence.

Too perverted.

This is far beyond the area where the Lord of Bech Star resides.

Is this still the ruler of the universe?
However, Qin Ming didn't care about any of that.

"Here, I will accelerate the time of the World Tree within the Netherworld God Kingdom."

Qin Ming's heart stirred.

He came here to cultivate, so naturally he carried the Myriad Soul Banner with him.

With his Netherworld God Kingdom and World Tree clones, he has always maintained a speed increase of ten thousand times in certain areas to enhance his cultivation.

If we accelerate time by ten thousand times, plus the 30 times speed of the Black Rock Pillar space...

Theoretically, that would be three billion times!
However, Qin Ming knew very well that this was just theory.

With such a high-intensity time acceleration, the World Tree clone and the energy reserves in the Netherworld Blood Sea would likely be depleted instantly.

The stronger the time acceleration, the more energy is consumed.

"Increase it by 2 times first!"

Qin Ming dared not improve too much at once.

The World Tree slightly increased the flow of time within its controlled spacetime range, causing the entire Netherworld Divine Kingdom to tremble, as if the heavens and earth were shaking.

"60 times acceleration is barely manageable."

"Double it again!"

Boom——

When time accelerated to 120 million times, the World Tree could no longer keep up with the energy it was absorbing, and even the Netherworld Blood Sea began to tremble and churn.

"No, this is too much of a drain. If this continues, the Netherworld Blood Sea will dry up in the long run."

Qin Ming looked at the trembling Netherworld Divine Kingdom and immediately sped up or slowed down time.

"One million times is about the limit. Although the consumption is still huge, with the energy reserves of the Netherworld Blood Sea and the continuous harvesting, it can barely be sustained."

After a series of adjustments, Qin Ming finally decided to let the World Tree control spacetime and coordinate with the external acceleration to maintain it at around a million times.

"With the impact and tempering of the black-patterned stone pillars, coupled with a million times the time acceleration, whether it is the comprehension of laws, the creation of secret techniques, the flow of divine power, or even the refining of weapons."

My strength will increase even more rapidly.

What does Qin Ming lack most?
It's all about time!

He rose to prominence too quickly and his cultivation time was too short.

However, with a time acceleration of a million times, these problems are greatly reduced.

"I'll leave one of my soul's bodies here to cultivate! After collecting all the treasures from the secret chamber, I'll continue my adventure!"
