Devouring the Stars: Rising from the Snow Eagle System

Chapter 123 The River Under the Night
A figure that looked extremely noble slowly walked out.

She was enveloped in endless light, and Zhou Lin could only vaguely glimpse a corner of her, but he could vaguely tell that she had an excellent figure.

"Even an ordinary universe venerable would be captivated by this from afar." Zhou Lin also recognized who the newcomer was—the strongest being who shook the primordial universe.

Zerg Queen.

She is also the only strongest being in the universe to enter the Temple of the Divine God.

"Lord of the Star River." The Zerg Queen completely ignored Zhou Lin, her gaze fixed on the dark void. Top-tier cosmic overlords were not qualified to get involved in such conflicts; they could be crushed with a flick of their wrists.

She couldn't kill Zhou Lin herself, but she wanted to bewitch the Lord of the Star River.

"Empress, you already have the supreme treasure palace. I don't think there's any need for you to compete with me this time." The Lord of the Star River showed no fear. In the Primordial Universe, the other party could only exert the strength of the sixth rank, and there were very few who were stronger than him.

Moreover, the primordial universe exerts a great suppression on the strongest beings in the universe, and it's not just a simple limitation on power.

The two locked eyes, neither willing to give up a supreme palace-level treasure.

"Lord of the Star River, it's fine if you and I clash, but please don't let others benefit from it." The Zerg Queen's voice was extremely pleasant, like heavenly music.

This decadent music possesses an endless allure.

The implication was clear: they wanted the Lord of the Galaxy to deal with Zhou Lin first.

"Your Majesty, I killed him so that the True Demon God would cause trouble for my Northern Frontier Alliance, is that it?" The Lord of the Star River smiled slightly: "I believe you will stand there obediently, Venerable Beichen."

"That's natural."

Zhou Lin pursed his lips and replied, sitting cross-legged on the grass. He took out a cup of tea and drank it with relish: "You two don't need to worry, I'll just watch quietly."

He certainly wouldn't want to steal the treasure from these two.

So we have to wait until the other universe lords come out before we have a chance to slack off.

It's not that the strongest being in the universe will necessarily obtain the ultimate treasure.

There are only a handful of super powers that can come to the Temple of the Divine God. The Northern Frontier Alliance is led by the Lord of the Star River, the Zerg Alliance by the Empress, and the Hong Alliance by Zhou Lin.

The rest were obtained by slightly weaker factions.

A weak force might have three or four universe lords enter; the Nine Domains Alliance has two. They will definitely join forces with each other.

"Hmph!" the Zerg Queen said coldly, "Lord of the Star River, you can't stop me."

Although her strongest treasure palace and her most proficient group tactics are unusable, anyone who dares to hide inside a palace-type treasure will be judged as eliminated by the origin of the primordial universe.

Needless to say, group tactics are also a problem. The Zerg must fight on their own here because the Queen Mother and her warriors have no protection from the Mirror Stone.

Anyone who dares to use group tactics will be instantly killed by the rules of the Temple of the Divine God.

But she is still the strongest in the universe.

boom!
The dazzling light surrounding her began to surge, and the Zerg Queen unleashed her strongest attack, intending to use this move to suppress the Lord of the Galaxy before seizing the treasure.

"This dazzling light is actually a supreme treasure of the highest level."

Zhou Lin exclaimed in surprise, "No wonder the Zerg Queen is so confident that she wants to take direct action. With her top-tier domain-level treasure, she is completely unafraid of overwhelming numbers."

As long as we suppress the Lord of the Galaxy, the treasure will be within our grasp!

The light covered tens of millions of kilometers; the Zerg Queen intentionally controlled the radiation range, otherwise even the most powerful cosmic overlords would die instantly if they fell into it.

Zhou Lin was only 200 million kilometers away from the place where the two fought.

The Lord of the Star River stretched out two empty arms, holding two bronze maces in his hands, which were none other than the supreme treasure Kunye.

Silently, the dark domain began to spread. Even without using his ultimate move, the Lord of the Galaxy, who was only at the top fourth tier, would have to use every means at his disposal to deal with the Zerg Queen.

"A river under the night sky."

The Lord of the Galaxy spoke calmly, and with a gentle twirl of his twin maces, the endless darkness expanded once more, overlapping with the previous domain-type treasures.

Every move he makes is a killer move.

The combined power actually suppressed the Zerg Queen's peak domain-type treasure, demonstrating the strength of a top-tier cosmic ruler.

The dark power was too strong; even the Zerg Queen's top-tier domain-level treasure was completely unable to contend with it.

A shimmering river cuts through the endless night, rushing forward with immense force, as if it were burying the entire world. The interplay of light and darkness is as terrifying as the end of an era.

Zhou Lin was at least a billion kilometers away from the location of their battle, but he was still somewhat shaken when he saw this river.

This wasn't a soul attack, but rather a move so perfect that it could affect a person's emotions. It was his unwavering will that made him so powerful; if it were a top-tier cosmic overlord, he would have been too disheartened to resist.

"What a magnificent lord of the galaxy!" Within the limits of the original universe's rules, the Zerg Queen unleashed her profound techniques to the fullest extent, with streaks of seven-colored light spreading before her.

The dazzling white river, like a boundless tsunami sweeping across the sky, threatened to annihilate everything, and instantly collided with the glowing light in front of the Zerg Queen.

There was no earth-shattering explosion as imagined; instead, two completely different energies were consuming each other.

As the darkness began to dissipate, the Zerg Queen's attack was at least at the sixth-tier level, stronger than the Star Lord, and her realm was also higher.

The higher the level of skill, the more profound the techniques, and even with the same power, one can still crush the opponent.

For example, Zhou Lin can still slaughter a first-level Heavenly God like a pig even if he only uses demigod energy. This is the benefit of having a high realm.

Boom!

Ultimately, the Zerg Queen's iridescent light completely engulfed the white.

The Lord of the Star River remained unmoved, and swung his long mace once more, catching the spreading radiance: "Empress, you can't do anything to me either."

After its remaining power was weakened by the Supreme Treasure Armor, it couldn't even annihilate one ten-thousandth of the Star River Lord's divine body.

Moreover, the Zerg Queen's strongest tactic is swarm tactics.

She roamed the cosmic sea, while her true form hid in the supreme treasure palace. The outside world summoned countless queens to attack her together, which was truly terrifying.

"As expected of the Lord of the Star River."

The Zerg Queen shook her head. She had originally thought that with her top-tier domain-type treasure, she could completely suppress the Lord of the Galaxy and then use her moves to restrict her opponent.

Those rays of light, if they had hit someone, would have turned into a prison, trapping the Lord of the Star River inside.

But who could have imagined that the Lord of the Galaxy, relying on his ultimate secret technique as the Lord of the Universe, combined with top-tier domain-class treasures, could fight to a draw with a peak domain-class treasure?

As for her ultimate move, the River Under the Night was only slightly weaker than hers; the difference was almost negligible.

The limitations imposed on the strongest beings in the primordial universe by the universe are not simply limited to sixth-order power; even a slight overexertion will result in a warning.

"The rules of the Temple of the Divine Realm are truly friendly to the weak." The Zerg Queen was extremely helpless. If this were outside, even the Lord of the Galaxy wouldn't be able to stop her in the slightest. She could simply have a bunch of Queens delay the Lord of the Galaxy.

Click...click~
Just then, a sound suddenly came from all around, as if large pieces of glass were shattering in a chain reaction, and one by one, the challengers emerged.

"Lord of Qingxu".

"Lord of All."

……

The Lord of the Star River frowned. He noticed that three of the Universe Lords were actually from the Piaofeng Alliance, which was not a good thing.

The moment those cosmic lords emerged.

Zhou Lin sensed a shift in space and time, and everyone was inexplicably moved to the same area by a powerful force, at the same distance from that supreme palace treasure.

After eliminating half of the thirty-six Qijing Stones, eighteen challengers remained. Apart from Zhou Lin, a Cosmic Venerable, and the Zerg Queen, the weakest of the rest were all third-tier Cosmic Lords.

There are also six people in the fourth tier.

The combined strength of everyone present was enough to suppress the Zerg Queen, and in the past, every treasure battle at the Temple of the Divine Origin would only end when it reached this point.

"Is Emperor Yan not here?" The Nine-Headed Beast Lord of Juefeng looked around, extremely surprised and curious about who Emperor Yan had encountered.

Although the Lord of Juefeng was stronger than the Emperor Yan, he believed that his ability to survive and sustain combat was inferior to that of his opponent.

Emperor Yan possesses too many treasures: a supreme treasure armor, a supreme treasure weapon, and a supreme treasure of the soul category guarding him. Who could possibly defeat him?

"Could it be that we encountered the Lord of the Star River, or the Queen of the Zerg?"

Lord Juefeng pondered to himself that their alliance also had extremely inconvenient communication, making it impossible for them to obtain information from the outside world.

Zhou Lin stood in the corner, and he didn't care that the universe lords noticed him. They were just top universe overlords, not worth mentioning.

In the past, when supreme treasures were created, even the top cosmic overlords could only try to get ahead of the competition and see if they could be the first to emerge and successfully claim ownership.

In this situation, what does a top-tier cosmic overlord matter?

The Purple Palace is a billion kilometers away from everyone, and on this vast plain, everyone can only fly at a speed of 300,000 kilometers per second.

It takes almost an hour to get there.

Whoosh!
The Zerg Queen suddenly erupted, her endless light covering the entire plain; she was targeting everyone present at once.

As the Lord of the Star River's darkness began to spread, he unleashed his ultimate secret technique combined with top-tier domain-type treasures, completely unafraid of the Zerg Queen's suppression.

The other cosmic lords, on the other hand, were complaining bitterly.

What does it mean for a supreme treasure of the pinnacle realm to be in the hands of the strongest being in the universe? The Zerg Queen could use it against everyone.

Otherwise, with billions of rays of light converging into one point, even a third-order universe master would probably be unable to move and would have to rely on the supreme treasure armor to save their life.

Even when spread over such a vast area, the pressure on every inch could crush a cosmic overlord, while only the top cosmic overlords could survive.

Rumble!
Various domain-specific treasures were activated by the crowd, and they resisted the pressure brought by the endless light, but it was difficult for them to fly at high speed.

"Roar!"

Those third-order universe lords, no matter how much they activate their domain-type treasures, will be suppressed, and their speed can only be maintained at 100,000 kilometers per second.

The three Universe Lords of the Piaofeng Alliance joined forces, with the leader, the Lord of Myriad Harmonies, possessing top-tier fourth-order strength, easily withstanding the suppression.

Some fourth-order universe lords can withstand the pressure, but without a good domain-type treasure, Lord Cangting can only be suppressed to fly at a snail's pace.

"When targeting so many people at the same time, the power can't be kept at its highest level." The Zerg Queen sighed inwardly. She had used all her strength to manipulate the supreme treasure of the peak domain, and suppressing the fourth-order universe lord was particularly easy.

The Lord of the Galaxy is because of his own overwhelming strength.

Let alone her treasure, even the Five-Colored Aurora Lake, without anyone controlling it, would only severely injure a Universe Venerable with the power of each ray of light.

When combined, they can suppress the strongest being in the universe.

"Fortunately, the Zerg Queen is here. Her peak domain-type treasure suppresses everything. Even if those third-tier universe lords join forces, they can't get through." The Star River Lord breathed a sigh of relief. It's a good thing to have so many fewer competitors.

The Lord of the Galaxy suddenly noticed that there were countless vines accompanying the sword light world on his left, and their speed was the same as his.

"Venerable Beichen?!"

"How could it be Venerable Beichen? Isn't he a top-tier universe overlord?"

All the lords of the universe were stunned. Whether they were flying behind or flying alongside Zhou Lin, they all looked on in disbelief.

A cosmic being, actually able to fly at the very front?!
What a joke!
They were all third-tier universe lords, which would be considered big shots even in the original universe, yet they were no match for a top-tier universe overlord.
"I didn't expect to reveal my strength so soon." Zhou Lin didn't intend to make himself so conspicuous, but the facts told him that he had to keep up with the Zerg Queen and the others to have a chance.

The Myriad Wood Realm is merely a high-level treasure, but after Zhou Lin integrated his evolved Extreme Divine Heart into the Myriad Swords Domain, it has undergone a qualitative change.

After burning its divine body again, it combined its power with the power of Taihao and actually withstood the scattered billions of rays of light.

"Fortunately, I have comprehended the ultimate divine heart." Zhou Lin was also secretly shocked. His sword light world and the projection of his inner world, three layers superimposed, were barely enough to withstand it.

In terms of power, he was always only at the level of a third-order universe master.

However, the Extreme Divine Heart is too balanced, and after combining with the World Divine Heart, it becomes even more inclusive, as if it is fearless in the face of even the most powerful forces.

"A cosmic lord, can he be this powerful?" The Zerg Queen's killing intent surged. Even with the warning from the Phantom Demon God, she still wanted to kill Zhou Lin.

But her reason told her she couldn't do that.

"This is interesting," the Lord of the Star River murmured. He had no ill intentions towards Zhou Lin, as the Northern Frontier Alliance and the human territory were far apart.

Therefore, there was no real competition between the two sides. Zhou Lin himself was a disciple of the True Demon God and had displayed such monstrous talent, so it would be natural for them to want to befriend him.

Nearly half an hour passed quickly, and they were getting closer and closer to the purple-gold palace. The Zerg Queen was in the lead, only 100 million kilometers away from the palace-type treasure.

Boom!

Just then, endless darkness spread, crushing the Zerg Queen like a miniature universe, and the Lord of the Galaxy unleashed his strongest secret technique.

"Your Majesty, let's leave this supreme palace treasure to us." The Lord of the Star River's unspoken intention was to rally everyone present to fight against the Zerg Queen.

The Lord of the Star River, Zhou Lin, the Zerg Queen, the other three fourth-order Universe Lords, the two third-order Universe Lords of the Piaofeng Alliance, and the top fourth-order Myriad Harmony Lord all stopped.

"Let's resolve this quickly, otherwise it will be even more troublesome when the others arrive."

The Lord of All Harmony stepped forward: "Your Majesty, I apologize for any offense. My Piaofeng Alliance is also very interested in this treasure."

There were three members of the Piaofeng Alliance present.
