Devouring the Stars: Rising from the Snow Eagle System

Chapter 107 The Fall of a Millionaire King
Zuo Ke is extremely efficient. As Zhou Lin's artificial intelligence, it also has its own physical life and its cultivation level has been raised to the immortal level.

For intelligent life forms, the amount of Chaos Units they would spend to achieve immortality is a drop in the ocean compared to Zhou Lin's ambitions.

After a while.

“Master, I have printed out the list of all the races that the Thorn Ring Alliance has joined, as well as their immortal gods. Everything recorded in the intelligence system is here.”

Zhou Lin took the list and checked it one by one.

Even if one were to kill someone with a normal thought, one would need to know the other person's name and some causal relationship; otherwise, how many people in the universe would share the same name?

But by sheer coincidence, he had established a karmic connection with the entire Thorn Ring Alliance, so simply knowing the names of those immortal gods was enough for him to unleash his power.

Are there really that many ordinary immortals?

Zhou Lin had a headache; this was just the intelligence provided by Virtual Universe Company, and it was already an astronomical figure.

Just like the world of Rasio has 100,000 tribes, and a medium-sized tribe has dozens of immortal gods, while an ordinary race alone has tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.

This type of group is extremely numerous within the Thorn Ring Alliance.

"The data Zoke gave me includes hundreds of billions of immortals. If I were to actually spend time killing them, even just transmitting their thoughts would be exhausting."

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Lin decided to let these ordinary immortals go.

He simply couldn't kill them all, so he focused his attention on those who were granted titles of nobility and kingship, but the number of them was still astonishing.

The Hongmeng Alliance has over three million Kings, while the Cihuan Alliance, though far inferior to the Hongmeng, still has over one million Kings.

The number of titles bestowed upon them is even more outrageous; even if the main body and the clone act simultaneously, it would still require a great deal of effort.

"Give up even the title of marquis."

Zhou Lin decided to save himself some trouble and started having Zuo Ke reorganize the matter, focusing solely on the King Immortal title of the Thorn Ring Alliance.

It is trillions of light-years away from the human realm.

In a vast and boundless star field, this is also where the Heart-Piercing Lord's clan resides.

The Lord of Heart Piercing is an avatar who oversees the clan; the one who chased Zhou Lin on the Primordial Star was the true Lord. There is another avatar at the Alliance headquarters.

This avatar of hers is mainly responsible for teaching the younger generation.

Inside the magnificent palace, the Heart-Piercing Lord looked with satisfaction at the silver-armored youth kneeling before her, Cahill, her most outstanding disciple in millions of years.

He was comparable to a King during his Realm Lord period, and he has already achieved invincible King-level strength after breaking through. His cultivation time is also extremely short.

Cahill knelt respectfully on the ground, listening to his teacher's teachings.

"You've broken through to the King level, but your teacher hasn't bestowed any treasures upon you yet. Now, I'll give you this top-tier treasure." The Lord of Heart Piercing smiled and tossed out a stream of light.

"Thank you, teacher." Cahill had been traveling for many years, and although he had a few valuable treasures, they were certainly not as good as those given by the Lord of Heartpiercing.

Just as he reached out to take it...

Boom!
Cahill's two-meter-tall body suddenly crashed to the ground, his eyes lifeless, his life force extinguished.

"what?!"

Even the Lord of Heart Piercing hadn't realized what was happening.

This was her palace, not some ordinary place. How could such a thing happen? Cahill felt as if his soul had been annihilated.

"I didn't sense any ethereal divine power at all." The Lord of Heart Piercing's gaze was icy. Even if the strongest being in the universe came to assassinate her, it was impossible for her to be completely unaware.

How did Cahill die?

The Lord of Hearts stood up, and time and space began to twist and rewind. Soon, Cahill's eyes were full of life again, and he had come back to life.

"Teacher, did I just die?" Cahill asked in a terrified voice.

After being resurrected, memories flooded his mind, but he couldn't believe that he had been so easily killed in the palace of the Lord of Heart Piercing.

“Hmm.” The Lord of Heart Piercing said solemnly, “Tell me everything about how you died.”

……

Before Cahill could speak, the Heartbreaker Lord's clone within the Thorn Ring Alliance received countless messages.

All the King-level Immortals in the entire Thorn Ring Alliance had died inexplicably, and before she could even react, Cahill died suddenly again!

Zhou Lin has mastered the Divine Heart of Cause and Effect, so he can naturally judge Cahill's life or death.

The information provided by Zuo Ke also indicated that this invincible king was the prized disciple of the Heart-Piercing Master, so Zhou Lin naturally had to target him.

If you revive, I'll kill you.

Unless Zhou Lin is cultivating and has no time to deal with Cahill, he can live for two more years.

"????"

The Lord of Hearts was filled with question marks.

She simply couldn't understand how Cahill had died.

"Illusory power? I don't have that either." The Lord of Heart Piercing thought of all the strongest beings in the universe. Even the Illusory True Demon God of the Illusionist style shouldn't have such a method.

Moreover, all the kings in the entire Thorn Ring Alliance have died.

Many clans were already in chaos. Zhou Lin's main body and his clone attacked simultaneously, targeting only those at the King level, so the efficiency was naturally high.

"Lord of Hearts, all three thousand of our clan's kings have died mysteriously. The Alliance must help us revive them!"

“Our tribe only had a thousand kings, and they are all dead…”

One by one, cosmic overlords and cosmic venerables arrived at the alliance headquarters.

The Thorn Ring Alliance itself only has twenty or thirty Universe Lords.

Most of their tribes lacked the ability to resurrect, and with so many kings dying, they could only pray for intervention from the alliance headquarters.

The Lord of Heart-Piercing was in a real bind.

Her own clan, the Entropy Skeleton Clan, numbered over ten thousand Kings and Immortals, all of whom had died, including three of her disciples.

"Since most of the kings are dead, let's look for the beginner Venerables."

Zhou Lin can now kill a first-level Heavenly God by relying on karma, which means he can kill a low-level Venerable, and he is completely unaffected by any armor.

Even if you hide in the most powerful and precious palace, you will still die.

This kind of method normally only appears on the Origin Continent, where emperors and god-kings who control cause and effect can kill people in this way.

They also have defensive measures; by hiding in the Emperor's palace, they can avoid the infiltration of cause and effect.

But this is the primordial universe.

The causal approach is a complete dimensional reduction attack; even the most powerful treasures cannot be immune to causal penetration. According to Zhou Lin's estimation, the only option is probably to hide in the True God's initial universe.

Only the true God can personally intervene to prevent infiltration.

"The Thorn Ring Alliance has only 1,347 novice Venerables."

Zhou Lin began to eliminate them one by one, following the list.

On the original star.

A team of seven from the Thorn Ring Alliance, including four novice Venerables and three intermediate Venerables, came here mainly to search for a great treasure.

Such a treasure is beyond my wildest dreams.

"In the past hundred years on the original planet, I have acquired four great treasures."

Venerable Zuque was very satisfied. He had only been a Universe Venerable for a few hundred years, and before that, he was only at the peak of the King-level strength and did not have any great treasures.

Upon becoming a Venerable One, his clan bestowed upon him two ordinary treasures. Neither of these was as good as the treatment given to those at the pinnacle of Kinghood, or those approaching the invincible status of Kinghood.

Unexpectedly, upon arriving at the Primordial Star, they easily found four powerful treasures. The seven of them working together could rival even a high-level Venerable.

As long as you don't try to steal the treasures, it's relatively safe.

"I also obtained three items," Venerable Wan Hui said with a smile, already planning to leave the Primordial Star.

Several precious treasures are enough for a beginner Venerable.

“Alright, let’s head to the next primordial star.” Venerable Yu Yuan frowned and said, “Don’t let your guard down, or we might just capsize in a ditch.”

As the leader of the team, he was also the strongest person present, vaguely approaching the level of a High Venerable.

But before they could reach the vortex passage, the four novice Venerables behind them inexplicably fell, crashing to the ground instantly under the terrifying pressure of the Primordial Star.

boom!
Yellow sand billowed as the four cosmic venerables fell under such terrifying gravity, the dust they raised spreading for tens of thousands of miles.

"what's the situation?!"

Venerable Yu Yuan asked in a trembling voice, "Are there enemies?"

“There is no ethereal divine power,” another mid-level Venerable replied.

Looking at the corpses of the four clansmen, they felt a chill run down their spines.

The four novice Venerables died quietly and without a sound.

……

Meanwhile, Zhou Lin, the instigator, was stretching and yawning. He was feeling a bit tired after killing a million Kings and hundreds of Elementary Venerables.

"There are still a few hundred left to kill, let's take a break." Zhou Lin needed to rest for a while.

He had to use his mind to kill, and the stronger the target, the more energy he needed to kill. The million-times-award-titled king had already left him very tired.

Since coming to this world, Zhou Lin has never truly relaxed. At this moment, he felt extremely tired and lay down on the ground to fall asleep.

For a normal World God, resting is as simple as closing their eyes and calming their mind.

But Zhou Lin felt his soul was very weary.

He had consumed two Myriad Flower True Fruits, which he couldn't fully absorb during his divine days. Now, after exhausting his soul power to the point of near depletion, the remaining True Fruit energy was stimulated.

"It feels so good." Zhou Lin felt as if his soul was undergoing a transformation.

Even if a normal fourth-level Heavenly God possesses strength comparable to a powerful being, their soul is still at the level of a Heavenly God.

Only when the path is opened during the time of the God of Energy can the soul undergo transformation.

Although the two Myriad Flower True Fruits could not cause Zhou Lin's soul to undergo a fundamental leap, they still had a considerable effect after all their effects were activated.

Zhou Lin slept for two days.

After he woke up, he felt that his soul was stronger than that of an ordinary fourth-level heavenly god, coupled with his terrifying mental will.

Even without the protection of a soul treasure, the strongest being in the universe could not possibly enslave them; at most, they could only kill them with their souls.

"Why are there so many emergency calls?" Zhou Lin only saw a huge pile of emails and call requests after entering the virtual universe.

Lord of Chaos: "Come see me in the virtual universe immediately."

He was unaware that the deaths of all the Kings and numerous Elementary Venerables of the Thorn Ring Alliance had already caused a huge uproar throughout the entire universe.

Such things naturally cannot be kept secret from those who are interested. Less than a day after Zhou Lin took action, the Thorn Ring Alliance could not suppress the turmoil and had to seek help from outside.

With millions of kings and hundreds of novice venerables, resurrecting them would be extremely difficult, and even dozens of universe lords would be overwhelmed.

Especially in the later stages of resurrection, the penalties become increasingly severe.

The Lord of Hearts resurrected many of the kings within her clan, but dared not continue, for the more resurrections there were, the greater the backlash would be.

Now, if she wanted to resurrect a peak-level King, the difficulty would be no less than resurrecting a high-level cosmic Venerable.

The Thorn Ring Alliance is now going around inviting universe lords with divine bodies, such as the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, and other universe lords of special life forms.

When humans heard about this, they naturally gloated.

Only the Lord of Chaos City noticed the abnormality. Not long after the Thorn Ring Alliance finished hunting down Zhou Lin, he checked the list of kings in the virtual universe.

Then this whole thing happened.

Even the Lord of Chaos City wouldn't believe it if you said it had nothing to do with Zhou Lin.

As soon as Zhou Lin's consciousness entered the virtual universe, he was transported to the front of the Giant Axe Temple by an inexplicable force. Normally, his authority wouldn't be that high.

The Temple of the Giant Axe, which can only be entered by the Lord of the Universe.

The Lord of Chaos City and the Founder of the Giant Axe had been waiting outside for a long time. As soon as Zhou Lin arrived, he couldn't wait to get close to them.

"Zhou Lin."

The gruff voice of the giant axe rang out: "Does the fact that a million kings of the Thorn Ring Alliance perished have anything to do with you?"

"Yes." Zhou Lin nodded; he knew he couldn't hide it anymore.

The virtual universe will retain records of those who have been granted titles of kings by other races, as well as those who have reached the initial stage of Venerable status.

"Is this your teacher, the True Demon God?" The Chaos City Lord found it somewhat amusing when he said this. No matter how strong the True Demon God was, he was still just the strongest being in the universe.

Back then, the Primordial Ancestor was extremely skilled in soul attacks and could reach the tenth level of power. He swept across the universe without any rivals, and even the First True Lord of the Divine Eye Clan could only barely survive.

But even the original ancestor couldn't do that.

The answer was right in front of them, but the two of them simply couldn't believe it.

"Sit down and let's talk." Zhou Lin walked to the stone table and brewed several cups of tea with a wave of his hand. He always felt awkward if he didn't drink something while discussing business.

The Lord of Chaos City and the Giant Axe also sat down.

“I killed them,” Zhou Lin said directly. “But currently, only I can use this method; no one else can.”

"You did it?"

The Lord of Chaos City had completely lost his usual composure.

What does Zhou Lin's method mean? He can completely wipe out those monstrous younger generations of his clans without being exposed.

Without prodigies among their descendants, a race will have no future!
We are still in the early stages of the cycle of reincarnation. Even without any ancient inheritance, by the time it naturally comes to an end, there will be quite a few cosmic masters.

But if Zhou Lin were to assassinate alien geniuses like this, where would their future be?

It will probably reach about the same size as it is now by the time it ends.

“Hmm.” Zhou Lin said again, “My current killing limit is a beginner-level Venerable of the Universe. If my strength improves in the future, I will be able to kill a mid-level Venerable.”

As for going any higher, Zhou Lin estimated that he would have to wait until he became a Void God.

"Being able to kill a low-level Venerable means that the invincible King-level expert is doomed." Giant Axe sighed, "You've really made things difficult for the Thorn Ring Alliance."

"I'm not done until this alliance is disbanded."

Zhou Lin said with unparalleled arrogance, "None of those who participated in the encirclement and suppression of me back then will survive."

Just then, a figure in white robes appeared opposite him.

"How did you kill those kings? Can you tell me?"

"Teacher!" the Chaos City Lord hurriedly called out respectfully.
