Devouring the Stars: Rising from the Snow Eagle System

Chapter 116 Directly Mocking the Flame Emperor
The fiery tornado was easily dealt with by Zhou Lin, and a chilling killing intent appeared in Yan Di's eyes. He stopped pretending to walk slowly and instead started flying.

"Emperor Yan, you fly slowly, I'll go first." Zhou Lin then headed towards the nearest vortex passage.

"You have the guts to provoke us, but not the guts to stay?" Emperor Yan demanded sharply, "Are all of you humans so cowardly and afraid of trouble?"

"Pfft!"

Zhou Lin couldn't help but laugh out loud, and said disdainfully, "You were beaten to a pulp by the Lord of Ice Peak and fled like a dog, but now you're putting on airs in front of me, a Universe Venerable. Emperor Yan, I'm too lazy to argue with a mad dog like you. We'll meet someday."

Upon hearing this, the entire primordial star seemed to freeze.

"You! Damn it!"

Emperor Yan was truly enraged. The divine runes in his hand emitted boundless red light, and the Yan Divine Halberd also hummed, as if he wanted to kill Zhou Lin from a great distance.

The majesty of the Lord of the Universe cannot be challenged!
The world changed color, and the cosmic venerables trembled in fear, all rushing toward the vortex passage. Only the Dark Burial Venerable was able to watch the battle in silence.

Endless flames enveloped billions of kilometers as the Flame Emperor unleashed his domain-type supreme treasure, combining it with his spacetime domain to completely suppress Zhou Lin.

Emperor Yan was confident that even a second-tier universe master would be severely suppressed by such an attack, moving at a snail's pace.

If you can slow him down, he can fly over and finish the kill.

"I must grind him to dust." This was the first time Emperor Yan had shown such intense killing intent.

Even towards his yet-to-appear third junior brother, Yan Di had never felt such resentment; Zhou Lin's words were like stabbing him in the back.

Unfortunately, he couldn't refute anything.

For Zhou Lin, a top-tier cosmic overlord, simply being able to leave this primordial star unharmed would be considered a success in the eyes of most people.

"Your domain and control over space and time are too weak, Emperor Yan."

Zhou Lin strolled leisurely through the sea of ​​flames, his body surrounded by layers of pale blue light, as if to shield him from the pressure.

His speed only decreased to 200,000 kilometers per second.

The two are separated by billions of kilometers. Zhou Lin can easily reach the nearest vortex passage and leave unhurriedly. Yan Di must stay here and wait for the Qijing Stone to be born.

Watching Zhou Lin's departing figure, Yan Di's heart was filled with boundless rage.

"Good, good, good!"

Yan Di gritted his teeth and uttered three "good"s in succession. His killing intent was completely uncontrollable, and his hatred for Zhou Lin had surpassed that of the Ice Peak Lord.

After all, Zhou Lin was an ant in his eyes, while the Lord of Ice Peak was able to defeat him and make him flee.

An ant dares to provoke a dragon.

Although Zhou Lin's speed and attack power just now demonstrated the strength of a second-tier universe master, and his treasures were extremely powerful, that's just how Yan Di is.

He looks down on anyone stronger than him, let alone anyone weaker.

Emperor Yan gradually calmed down and walked to the sea surface to wait for the Qijing Stone to be born. Hatred was secondary; the key was to seize the treasure.

……

The video of Zhou Lin provoking Yan Di spread wildly throughout the universe.

This is a very important matter for the cosmic venerables, and it can become a topic of conversation over tea.

For several years after the incident, almost every leader of the major clans would mention it when they chatted.

The news reached back to the human race.

"This Beichen, he did a good job." The Lord of Ice Peak was in a good mood. The person he hated most in the universe was the Yan Emperor. It was a pity that the other party had the Tribulation Armor, otherwise he would have already gone to kill him.

A supreme treasure armor can save the Flame Emperor from facing the strongest beings in the universe, and its sixth-order power is far from reaching the limit of the Calamity Armor.

The lords of the universe weren't particularly surprised.

Zhou Lin was already a top-tier third-order cultivator, and Yan Di, relying solely on his control over spacetime and his high-level realm treasures, had no chance of limiting him. "I thought Bei Chen would fight Yan Di," the Lord of the Desolate Mirror laughed. "Yan Di has obtained the Qijing Stone; the two might run into each other in the Qishen Temple."

"Met you?"

Peng Gongzhi said calmly, "If Yan Di didn't have so many top-tier treasures, Bei Chen would definitely be able to crush him."

The lords of the universe didn't discuss it much; it was entirely expected.

The cosmic venerables were all extremely shocked.

They never expected Zhou Lin to have such strength. Only those who were close to him were not surprised, as Zhou Lin had kept his identity as the Destruction Venerable a secret from many people.

Other cosmic venerables, such as the ruler of the Extreme Shadow Kingdom, the ruler of the Southern Fox Kingdom, and Venerable Luo Jin, who had little contact with Zhou Lin, all sent emails to congratulate him.

Reputation points have increased, but not enough to trigger a massive reward.

At this point, Zhou Lin's reputation must come from a very large area, and those cosmic venerables must have already heard of him.

His immortality was comparable to that of a high-ranking venerable being.

It's quite normal for someone at the Venerable stage to be comparable to a second-order Universe Lord.

……

In the primordial universe, in a dark void.

The Mechanical Race Father God, the Zerg Queen, and the two Demon Ancestors of the Demon Race gathered here, their words becoming law, completely blocking out the virtual universe.

"What do you think of Zhou Lin's situation?" The mechanical race's father god spoke first: "His monstrous talent is beyond imagination."

How much time has passed? Less than twenty eras.

Zhou Lin has developed to a level comparable to a second-tier universe master. He was able to escape from the Yan Emperor with ease. If he truly becomes a universe master in the future, he will probably be able to directly rival the Chaos City Lord.

What's most terrifying is that Zhou Lin's rise to power was incredibly horrific.

If we develop to the end of the cycle of reincarnation, wouldn't we have a high probability of becoming the strongest being in the universe?

"How can you interpret it?" the Zerg Queen said softly. "The warning from the Phantom Demon God is right there. Do you really dare to go and kill him?"

There was one more thing she didn't say.

That means even if Zhou Lin is killed, he will be resurrected. The True Demon God himself is the strongest in the Illusionary Realm Universe. He can give his disciple any high-level soul treasure.

In the entire primordial universe, no one could annihilate Zhou Lin's soul.

"Stop studying him."

The Dream Demon Ancestor and the Zhen Demon Clan had already made their decision: "Our demon clan will not get involved. No matter how strong he is, even if he reaches the strength of the Primordial Ancestor, we will accept it."

Even if Zhou Lin is powerful, he is still an individual and has no significance for territorial expansion.

Back then, the original ancestors had all reached the tenth-tier combat power, and the human territory hadn't changed much. At most, they needed to be cautious when interacting with each other.

If you offend humans, the progenitor will come knocking on your door demanding compensation.

The Mechanical God remained silent. He knew that Zhou Lin's rise was difficult to stop, and with the True Demon God protecting him, none of the races could take action.

Even if the strongest lone wolf kills Zhou Lin, it will be attributed to them.

"Humans are indeed lucky." The Zhenyao Clan shook their heads: "The Qishen Temple is about to emerge. Among the super powers, only they and the Empress have obtained the Qijing Stone."

With Emperor Yan obtaining the Qijing Stone, the Qishen Temple was ready to emerge.

Among the super powers, only the Hongmeng and the Zerg Alliance obtained the Qijing Stone.

The rest fell into the hands of weaker groups.
