Devouring the Stars: Rising from the Snow Eagle System

Chapter 243 The Array Formation of the Lord of the Shadow Realm
No one could figure out where Zhou Lin got the confidence to contend with the two ancient kingdoms at the level of Eternal True God.

It should be noted that apart from these top-tier forces and god-kings who had grudges against the two ancient kingdoms, most of the rest had submitted to them.

In terms of the number of Eternal True Gods, Void True Gods, and True God Legions, Cangyuan Kingdom only has two-thirds of the number of the two ancient kingdoms, and its direct combat strength is even lower.

That Flame Giant Formation alone could overpower any mechanical treasure. Fortunately, the Mountain Guest's crafting technique was superb, and the materials used were extremely rare, so it has not been damaged yet.

Even in the eyes of the two progenitors, Zhou Lin could not possibly cause any trouble. The strength of the formation, the number of elite troops, and the number of living beings all far surpassed the opponent.

Zhou Lin's confidence stemmed from the presence of two eternal true gods.

Individual strength is of little significance in the face of such wars, but if one reaches the point of being able to overcome nature and single-handedly contend with an entire army, then it becomes a completely different world.

These two eternal true gods are a giant axe and a primordial being.

Giant Axe's talent was already very high. He became a top-tier true god in the early to mid-stages of the Reincarnation Era, no less than the likes of Blood Blade God Emperor. Zhou Lin taught him the profound system of the original ancestral rules, the witch cultivation system, and a large number of secret techniques.

This stage involves cultivating multiple systems, especially the system of rules and mysteries, which greatly enhances one's strength at the same level.

Zhou Lin possesses numerous secret techniques at the Unity Realm and Chaos Realm levels.

Especially since the original ancestor was also a world cultivator, practicing both the virtual and real realms, Zhou Lin personally wrote secret techniques for him and created a body-refining method, making his current strength unfathomable.

The giant axe was very interested in the Dao of Destruction and the Dao of Void. During his time as an Eternal True God, he comprehended the source of destruction and the source of void.

Upon learning about the Void Realm, Zhou Lin taught him the Twelve Forms of the Southern Cloud Saint. While several eras had passed in the outside world, he and the Primordial Ancestor had experienced hundreds of eras. In terms of foundation, he was ready to break through to the Chaos Realm at any time.

But for the sake of this war, they are still stuck in the eternal true god, having accumulated immense power.

Perhaps the two ancient kingdoms also had such eternal true gods who could break through to the Chaos Realm but stubbornly held back, just to show off their dazzling prowess in war.

However, in Zhou Lin's view, it was absolutely impossible for them to have the combat power of the eighth level of the Star Tower, because that kind of existence only existed in the Realm Heart Continent.

Even the ancestors of both countries were unable to cultivate such beings, because the vast majority of truly talented eternal gods had already broken through to the Chaos Realm.

There has never been a case in the history of the Origin Continent where an Eternal True God could defy the Chaos Realm and even defeat someone with the combat power of the sixth level of the Star Tower.

……

As night came and went, and the sun shone on the ground again, the area outside Huyang City was filled with a densely packed army, shouting and cursing loudly.

Use words that sound unpleasant.

"Your Majesty, can we go to war now?" Even the King of Yushui couldn't help but come to Zhou Lin to ask, "If the soldiers don't go to war soon, I'm afraid their morale will collapse."

"Go ahead," Zhou Lin said casually. "Use the same strategy: slowly increase the number of soldiers and lure out the enemy's main force."

The legions under the Food Kingdom are not even worthy of the Primal Ancestor or the Giant Axe to fight.

Zhou Lin's goal is to annihilate the elite forces of the two ancient kingdoms!
boom!
Large numbers of legions once again marched onto the battlefield, and from the void passages in the rear cities, legions of true gods were also being continuously teleported in.

"Kill! Annihilate these little brats from the Yu Kingdom!" King Tiankun roared, waving his hand. "Only by killing them can you survive!"

"kill!"

Neither side showed any fear, or rather, even if they did, they could only charge forward; living in this era, that was something they had to face.

boom!
On the Food Kingdom's side, the familiar fire giants and thunder dragons charged ahead. Relying on their overwhelming power and thick hides, they bravely withstood the energy impact and advanced.

The world of Jinluo went mad, with energy surging wildly, each one at the seventh level of the Chaos Realm, yet it still couldn't destroy the Flame Giant.

"Hahahaha!" The Eternal God, who controlled the fire giant, laughed wildly. He swung two fiery warhammers, smashing any mechanical treasures that dared to block his way.

The array created by the Flame Ancestor was incredibly ingenious; any attack that landed on the Flame Giant would be weakened by 90% by the array's domain.

The remaining 10% will be shared by all members.

"It's all about defense. It's a pity that even a mechanical treasure like Jinluo Tiandi can't match the sophistication of formations. Let's reveal a card to show the opponent."

Zhou Lin laughed and said, "Lord of the Shadow Heaven Realm, reveal your hand."

The next second, several Eternal True God formations on the battlefield suddenly underwent inexplicable changes, transforming from their original imposing grandeur into something shrouded in shadow.

The black mist began to spread gradually, quickly covering an area of ​​fifty trillion kilometers. The great formation merged into the endless black mist in the next second.

"Where did this black mist come from?!" a thunderous dragon roared. "Watch me spray all this black mist away!"

Having said that, it unleashed billions of bolts of lightning from its mouth, dispelling the endless black mist in front of it. But the next second, the boundless black mist reappeared.

"Lord of the Shadow Heaven Realm." Ancestor Yanfeng frowned. How could he not know whose handiwork this was? It was easy to break the Black Mist Domain, but how could he break through those Eternal True Gods?
Even if he could spot the flaw at a glance, would the story be understood if it were passed down?
Countering moves also requires a certain level of skill.

"What's going on?!" The Heavenly Kun Kingdom Lord was stunned. The Flame Wind Ancestor could see through the flaws in the black mist in an instant, but he couldn't.

In terms of realm, the Lord of Shadow Heaven Realm cultivates both paths, and the ultimate moves he created are so exquisite that even those at the ultimate realm would find them ingenious, let alone this assassination array.

“If we can’t kill the Thunder Dragon and the Flame Giant, we’ll dismantle their other mechanical treasures.” Zhou Lin smiled and said, “These two formations are definitely not easy to comprehend, otherwise there would be much more to them than this.”

The more powerful the formation, the more difficult it is to comprehend.

If one could control a fire giant or a thunder dragon, one would probably be at the Chaos Realm, but is stuck at the Eternal True God level only for the sake of military merit.

Chi!
Amidst the lingering black mist, a sharp sword light suddenly flashed, shattering a mechanical treasure that stretched for a billion kilometers, before returning to silence once more.

Similar assassinations occurred in many other areas. The black mist obscured everyone's vision, and the core of each formation, the Eternal True God, was an elite assassin trained by the Shadow Heaven Realm.

This grand formation was jointly researched by the Lord of the Shadow Heaven Realm and Zhou Lin.

Both of them have extensive knowledge of assassination. Zhou Linzhen's original universe is all about this business, and he is skilled in all of his methods.

Bang bang bang!
A large number of mechanical treasures were shattered. Although these formations did not reach the seventh level in terms of power, they were able to come and go without a trace.

Although both have six layers, they are like a sharp blade, able to penetrate the opponent's weakest area. The weakness of the mechanical treasure was analyzed as early as the first battle.

On the contrary, Jin Luo's heaven and earth are impeccable.

Of course, controlling the Jinluo Heaven and Earth is equally difficult, and the complexity of its core structure is almost comparable to the Flame Giant Array Diagram.

"How were they able to find the weakness so quickly?!" The King of Tiankun Kingdom was puzzled. Those mechanical treasures should have been on the same level of power as the Shadow Heaven Realm formation.

Even in an assassination, one shouldn't be killed in one move.

"This God King of Jin, despite his weak strength, has earned quite a few battle merits in the Eternal True God level war." The Lord of the Myriad Realms looked at the Mountain-Sitting Guest with great envy.

During the first major battle, the Mountain Guest analyzed the weaknesses of all the opponent's mechanical Arcana items simply by observing from the void.

While becoming a God-King through the art of treasure refining may not guarantee strong combat power, the Mountain Dweller's ability to observe treasures and the exquisite craftsmanship at the same level far surpasses that of the Ancestor.

After all, the progenitor refined treasures by relying on the secret patterns of his own Dao.

But the Mountain-Sitting Guest was the true master craftsman. "Idiot! Stop defending! Quickly find a way to destroy their formation and their mechanical treasures!" The Heavenly Kun Kingdom Lord reacted just as quickly. He knew he absolutely couldn't back down in this situation.

The black mist had spread for fifty trillion kilometers. If he dared to say he was withdrawing his troops now, all mechanical treasures and formations except for the Flame Giant and the Thunder Dragon would probably be slaughtered.

The brave wins when we meet on a narrow road.

There are a total of six fire giants and thunder dragons on the field.

"Kill!" A thunderous dragon erupted, tearing the sky apart with endless lightning. Instantly, billions of bolts of lightning rained down, indiscriminately attacking the surrounding billions of kilometers.

The fire giants were the same; their blazing flames, accompanied by thunder, swept across the battlefield with madness, completely disregarding defense.

"help me!"

"I don't want to die! Help me!"

"Damn the Food Kingdom, damn the Flame Wind Ancient Kingdom!"

A massive world formation was struck numb by lightning, and then a fiery tornado swept in, slaughtering countless lives within.

Then came billions of bolts of lightning. No eternal true god could escape under such circumstances and was instantly annihilated into nothingness.

"Don't be a coward, just fight to the death and kill them." The King of Yushui coldly commanded, "Jinluo Heaven and Earth will take care of protection, and the Shadow Heaven Realm's formation will carry out the assassination with all its might."

Those Jinluo Heavens and Earths no longer suppressed with nine-colored light, but instead formed a multicolored light domain, protecting their own legion as much as possible.

Chi!
Within the black mist realm, one mechanical treasure after another was collapsing.

Destroying the formation was too slow, so they targeted large machines with weaknesses that could be found and destroyed, then used black mist to erode and kill the billions of true gods within.

Death is truly just a number. Countless trillion true gods have fallen, and even the brilliant starry sky above has dimmed somewhat.

Fortunately, before going to the battlefield, those true gods, void true gods, and eternal true gods all chose to spread their faith in exchange for battle merits.

Previously, during peacetime, Zhou Lin needed Chaos Crystals and Cosmic Sand to attract True Gods to spread their faith, but now he can do it simply through military achievements.

There are many items that can be exchanged for in battle, such as Chaos Realm items and even God-King level bloodlines.

This bloodline allows them to cultivate to the level of Eternal True God, the Chaos Realm.

Another thing is the large amount of inheritance. These things are essentially free. Those Void True Gods of the Law lineage who want to become Eternal True Gods, and Eternal True Gods who want to become Chaos Realm, have to exchange for inheritance.

As they spread their faith, Zhou Lin gained reputation points.

The treasures, remains, and a large number of rare materials have been unearthed, along with high-grade and low-grade Chaos Origin Bloodlines. He is already considering whether to open an exchange channel later.

The high-grade Chaos Origin can be kept for future trade, while the low-grade Chaos Origin bloodline, if given to the Lord of Myriad Realms, can make him a Bloodline God Emperor.

……

The war continues, but it is no longer as large as it once was.

Too many legions were wiped out, and the number of true gods who died was at least in the trillions.

The Thunder Ancestor glanced at the clone of the Heavenly Kun Kingdom Lord.

With just one glance, the Heavenly Kun Kingdom Lord felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He knew that the Thunder Ancestor was somewhat dissatisfied with his command, but there was nothing he could do about it.

The battlefield is ever-changing and involves hidden strength. Even Yanfeng Ancestor, who has mastered the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, dares not say that he knows all the information.

The fact that the battle could reach a point where both sides were severely injured was already the limit that the Lord of Tiankun Kingdom could achieve.

All of their large mechanical treasures shattered, and many formations of the Yu Kingdom also perished, including one of the Shadow Heaven Realm formations.

No one could have done a better job if they were in his position to direct.

"Show your weakness to the enemy." Zhou Lin transmitted his voice to the Lord of Yushui Kingdom: "Have Jinluo Heaven and Earth cover us, withdraw some of our troops, and gradually withdraw the Shadow Heaven Realm formation. We will withdraw our troops first."

"Showing weakness? Is this the same tactic they're using?" The Yu Shui Kingdom's commander was not seeking merit but rather aiming for no results. Under his exquisite coordination, a perfect retreat was completed.

The many true gods who survived the calamity all expressed their joy.

It's so good that I survived.

Many also broke through during the great battle, with more than 1,400 Void True Gods breaking through to Eternal True Gods.

Two Eternal True Gods broke through to the Chaos Realm.

They no longer wanted to stay in the Eternal True God realm to earn battle merits, but instead wanted to break through to the Chaos realm to temporarily avoid battle.

"The catastrophe is like a torrent of time sweeping by; unless one has the ability to leave the source world, no one can escape unscathed." The Lord of Yushui Kingdom looked at those newly promoted Chaos Realm cultivators, feeling extremely displeased.

He could have unleashed even greater power during the Eternal God stage.

However, if one wants to break through to become a newly promoted Chaos Realm cultivator and avoid battle, without enough battle merits to exchange for resources, one can only remain at the bottom of this level, let alone break through in the future.

Reaching the combat power from the Chaos Realm to the Ultimate Realm is entirely possible within a thousand centuries in this era, as long as one has enough battle merits to exchange for it.

There is still a constant stream of true gods spreading their faith, which is exchanged for battle merits to enhance their strength. The stronger they are, the greater their chance of survival.

Some people started to enjoy life based on their military achievements, living for the moment and thinking that even if they died in battle tomorrow, it wouldn't be a loss.

This act of spreading the faith also attracted the attention of the Yanfeng Ancestor.

If most of the beings in a source world worship the same person, then that person can become the master of the source world. "The Ancestor Yanfeng naturally knew what Zhou Lin was doing.

He thought Zhou Lin wanted to pursue a missionary career.

This path is a dead end on the Origin Continent. Even if all living beings on the Origin Continent have faith in it, it will not reach the point of being recognized by the supreme rules.

The ocean of three thousand dimensions contains countless smaller universes, and the three thousand primordial universes still have a considerable population.

……

Zhou Lin didn't care whether this path was feasible; he only cared about what kind of reward he could obtain.

[Congratulations, host, you have received a reward: World-class Chaos Origin Remains]

[Congratulations, host, on receiving the reward: Supreme Treasure: Three-Foot Realm]

[Congratulations, host, on receiving the reward: High-grade Chaotic Origin Bloodline]

[Congratulations, host, you have received the reward: Remains of the Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan]
