Man is devouring, waves are traveling through the universe

Chapter 114 Honing Swordsmanship, Making Rapid Progress
Extraterritorial battlefield, Ninth battlefield, Cold Flame Lake combat zone.

The Giant Rock Star transformed into a streak of light and headed back towards Base 126.

Ye Xingkong and Huanling floated in an endless sea of ​​azure flames, staring at each other.

"Ye Wen, what are you planning to do next?"

Huanling wore a shapely silver armor dress that accentuated her graceful figure, and her bright purple eyes were fixed on Ye Xingkong.

"do not know."

Ye Xingkong shook his head, waved his hand, and the Starship suddenly appeared in the void. He said, "Let's get into the ship first. It's not safe outside."

"it is good."

Huanling hesitated for a moment before nodding, then followed Ye Xingkong into the Starship.

"This, this spaceship is actually made entirely of F9-class Netherfrost Iron Mother."

Huanling examined the complex solidified patterns on the Starship's exterior, a hint of surprise flashing in her beautiful eyes.

With her knowledge, she could naturally tell at a glance that Ye Xingkong's Starship was much more powerful than the Giant Rock Starship.

Not to mention the solidified patterns on the surface of the spaceship, the Starship alone is much larger in size, with a diameter of 1,900 meters, while the Giant Rock Star has a diameter of only 100 meters, making it a very ordinary F-class spaceship.

"Even many powerful experts who have reached the King level might not be willing to buy a spaceship of this caliber."

"Ye Wen... is definitely a junior whom a certain powerful figure cherishes very much."

Huanling pursed her pink lips, looking at Ye Xingkong who was cultivating as if nothing was wrong, with many guesses in her mind.

She was a genius at the core of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, and she knew that the world lords at the core of the five major human powers would never be as wealthy as Ye Xingkong.

Unless one has an extremely powerful teacher who bestows upon them many precious treasures.

I have to say, if you've guessed this far, you're pretty much right.

"Qing'er, fly towards the inner region of Cold Flame Lake."

Ye Xingkong sat on the sofa, swirling a glass of pale purple wine, and gave the order with great satisfaction.

"The inner domain? Are you crazy?!"

Huanling's eyes widened, a hint of worry flashing across her pretty face. She said, "The inner region of Cold Flame Lake is a place where Marquis-level Immortals roam, and even King-level experts have appeared there."

Having spent three years venturing into the battlefields beyond the region, Ye Xingkong had also learned a great deal of information.

Cold Flame Lake is divided into two major regions: the outer region and the inner region.

The outer realm is less dangerous, and flames other than cyan flames are rarely seen. There are many military lord immortal squads or elite realm lord squads venturing there.

For the past three years, the Thunderbolt Squad has been venturing into the outer realms, so they have rarely encountered enemies at the Marquis/Immortal level. Even if they do, they can escape early on.

However, the inner region is much more dangerous. Apart from the inherent dangers of Cold Flame Lake itself, those who dare to venture into the inner region are basically Marquis Immortals, or some relatively weak King Immortals.

"A Marquis-level expert can cultivate an immortal body."

"Even if you have the Immortal-grade Hundred Vine Star-Eating Grass, you can only run away when you encounter a Marquis-level Immortal."

"Illusion Spirit said softly and weakly."

"Don't worry, would I take you to your death?"

"Trust me, it's no problem."

Ye Xingkong didn't care at all. He then extended his hand, revealed a cheerful smile, and said, "Let's get acquainted. My name is Ye Xingkong, and I come from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom."

"Ye Xingkong?"

"You are Ye Xingkong, the disciple of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler!"

Huanling was taken aback at first, then blinked her purple eyes and carefully examined Ye Xingkong.

"you know me?"

Ye Xingkong was somewhat surprised.

Logically speaking, he should have kept a low profile all these years, so how could he still be recognized?
"heard about it."

A slight smile appeared on Huanling's pretty face.

At the level of a Realm Lord, most people are already able to remember everything they see.

Although Ye Xingkong has kept a low profile all these years, when he was first accepted as a disciple by the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom, it still caused a stir in the circle of human powerhouses.

But as time went by, Ye Xingkong gradually lost his attention.

"My name is Huanling, and I am a member of the Glory Realm of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance."

Huanling cupped her breasts in her hands, raised her snow-white chin, and said with great pride.

Ye Xingkong nodded, looked Huanling up and down, and said with a smile, "Aren't you a demon? You don't seem like one. Is that really true?"

Huanling's pretty face turned as red as an apple. She stuck out her tongue and whispered, "When venturing into the outer battlefields, you definitely have to hide your identity!"

As she spoke, a spatial fluctuation flashed around her.

A subtle change occurred on Huanling's pretty face; her already beautiful features became even more stunning.

Her waist-length hair gradually turned purple, and a fluffy purple tail appeared behind her at some unknown time.

Most importantly, it's a change in temperament.

The original Huanling was like a simple girl next door, but now, in addition to her original innocence and cuteness, she also carries a hint of bewitching charm.

Pure and lovely, alluring and seductive – two completely opposite styles, yet they are perfectly combined in one person.

A single, unintentional glance can steal a person's soul.

"As expected of the demon race!"

Ye Xingkong looked at Huanling, who exuded countless charms yet possessed a beauty that could rival even the most beautiful women, and couldn't help but sigh.

No wonder Phantom Spirit had to conceal her original appearance on the battlefield outside the realm; being too beautiful can sometimes cause unnecessary trouble.

although……

In this universe, mere beauty is actually a very cheap thing.

Not to mention the advanced technology, all kinds of cosmetic surgery and face-changing are easy to achieve.

Even on a single ordinary planet with a population of tens of billions, there are countless beautiful women of all kinds.

However, what makes the Chimei tribe truly unique is their irresistible, innate allure.

······
It took the Starship nearly two months to gradually enter the inner region of Cold Flame Lake.

"The inner domain is the true core of Cold Flame Lake."

Ye Xingkong looked at the starry sky outside with a serious expression, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

Along the way, from the outer realm to the inner realm, they encountered more than ten potential dangers.

If Ye Xingkong hadn't kept his "Eye of the Void" active, allowing him to evade enemies as soon as they approached, several major battles would have been inevitable.

……

[Golden Soul Technique: Second Level (1201/5000)]

【Soul Suppression: 1000/5000 (Third Floor)】

[Space Law: 51000/100000]

[Time Rule: 13000/100000]

[Divine power amplitude: 1 times]

[Soul Amplitude: 18 times]

……

Ye Xingkong sat cross-legged on the ground and glanced at the proficiency panel.

"The laws of space... are too obscure."

"Becoming a Venerable One is a long way off!"

Ye Xingkong sighed softly. Of course, he was simply unaware of his good fortune; if the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom had progressed at this rate, he would probably have gone mad with joy long ago.

"Having left the Thunderbolt Squad and regained my freedom, it's time to hone my swordsmanship."

A glint of light flashed in Ye Xingkong's eyes.

There are two main reasons why he chose to stay and explore Cold Flame Lake.

First, Ye Xingkong always harbored a sliver of interest in that legendary domain-type treasure.

After all, he possesses the "Eye of the Void," which is said to see through all illusions.

What other powerful beings in the universe cannot detect, Ye Xingkong believes may be able to detect.

Secondly...

The inner region of Cold Flame Lake is dangerous enough that many alien races who have been enfeoffed as marquises and immortals have ventured there, making it a suitable place for Ye Xingkong to hone his swordsmanship in the early stages.

"Hey! Target spotted!"

Ye Xingkong's eyes suddenly lit up.

Within the detection range of the Eye of the Void, a C9-class spaceship was seen flying aimlessly.

Inside the spaceship, a powerful alien warrior, over six meters tall, wearing black armor, with an upper body like a human and a lower body resembling a spider, was resting on the ground.

"It's the Black Spider Clan, a vassal race of the Zerg!"

"Judging from his aura, he should be a Marquis-level Immortal, otherwise he wouldn't dare to venture alone into the inner region of Cold Flame Lake."

Ye Xingkong smiled.

It seems that my first battle in the inner region of Cold Flame Lake will be against this "Black Spider Clan" Marquis Immortal.

The Starship quickly changed direction and sped towards the C9-class spaceship.

Because Ye Xingkong's small detector was advanced enough, the "Black Spider Clan" Marquis Immortal was still resting comfortably, completely unaware that he had been locked on.

After half an hour.

The C9-class spaceship, which was flying at a constant speed in space, suddenly exploded without warning.

An immortal god, over six meters tall and exuding a terrifying aura of the laws of fire, flew out, gazing coldly at the surrounding starry sky.

"Damn it! Who! Who dared to ambush the great Bryce!"

Bryce held a spear more than ten meters long in his hand, and had twelve ferocious, thick black appendages on his abdomen.

Ye Xingkong flew out of the Starship, his whole body shrouded in dark gold Five Elements Battle Armor, his eyes indifferently fixed on the "Black Spider Clan" Feng Hou Immortal before him.

If he hadn't wanted to hone his swordsmanship, he could have easily ordered a "million-strong insectoid army" to launch a sneak attack.

A single combined attack from a million-strong Zerg army would severely injure even a King-level Immortal, let alone a Marquis-level Immortal, who would likely be annihilated.

"Huh? He's actually a Realm Lord?"

A flicker of doubt crossed Bryce's mind, followed by a burst of rage. He sneered, "A mere Realm Lord dares to provoke me? He's courting death!"

"It's not certain who's courting death!"

Ye Xingkong gripped his battle sword "Broken Abyss" and laughed as he spoke loudly.

"Come on, come on!"

"I'll make you my first whetstone on the battlefield beyond the realm!"

Ye Xingkong laughed loudly, then transformed into a dark golden streak of light and flew towards Bryce.

"Laughable humans!"

A cold glint flashed in Bryce's narrow eyes.

Although he didn't understand why this human realm lord was so overconfident, his intuition from years of wandering the battlefields beyond the realms told him that even a lion would use its full strength to hunt a rabbit.

dead!
Bryce roared and swung his spear.

The spear, over ten meters long, suddenly lit up with countless intricate runes, like a burning star, and resolutely pierced towards Ye Xingkong.

Bang!
Ye Xingkong felt a tremendous force and was then sent flying hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.

"It seems that even the most powerful strike from a high-ranking Marquis-level Immortal has come to nothing!"

Ye Xingkong grinned, his eyes shining with boundless light.

Although Bryce's spear just now seemed incredibly powerful, its power was reduced to one ten-thousandth of its original strength when it came into contact with the Five Elements Battle Armor.

Ultimately, the damage caused to Ye Xingkong himself was negligible.

"What! My strongest secret technique, 'Meteor Strike,' failed to kill him?"

"Could it be... that this human realm lord possesses some heaven-defying defensive treasure?!"

Bryce looked at Ye Xingkong, a hint of greed flashing in his eyes.

All the treasures of this human realm lord will be mine if I kill him!

"I've taken your spear; now it's time to show you my swordsmanship."

Ye Xingkong's eyes narrowed, and the Broken Abyss Battle Blade erupted with an incomparably dazzling golden light, while simultaneously activating the second layer of secret runes on the Five Elements Battle Armor.

brush!
A sharp blade of light appeared out of nowhere in the starry sky, hundreds of meters long, like a golden river traversing the cosmos.

Wherever the blade passed, even the endless sea of ​​blue flames seemed to have a hundred-meter-long crack cleaved in the middle.

This strike, just in terms of its basic power, is ten thousand times the power of a realm lord.

Its basic strength is comparable to the peak level of the Marquis-level Immortal realm.

In terms of understanding the laws, Ye Xingkong had already reached the twentieth level of the Bridge to Heaven, which is the peak of the King-Sealing stage.
Furthermore, the battle blade "Broken Abyss" is a pseudo-treasure, yet its own power is extremely strong.

The combination of these three elements resulted in Ye Xingkong's strike possessing power comparable to a full-force attack from a beginner-level Immortal King.

Rumble~
As the golden sword light cascaded down like a waterfall onto Bryce's body, its terrifying power blasted his body into countless fragments.

However, the next second, Bryce's body reformed.

"How is this possible? That strike just now was comparable in power to a low-level Immortal King?"

Bryce was incredibly surprised, his face filled with astonishment and uncertainty.

A human realm lord was able to unleash such powerful combat strength.

"But so what if I'm only a low-ranking prince?"

"I have already cultivated an immortal body. Attacks at the initial level of the King-level cannot annihilate my divine body in the slightest."

Bryce was completely calm.

This is the abnormal aspect of immortality.

Unless it's a soul attack or directly annihilates the opponent's divine body, even if the opponent is blasted into billions of fragments, they can be completely restored in the next second.

Generally speaking, only those whose cultivation level is a whole level higher than their opponent's can easily annihilate the opponent's divine body.

such as,

A beginner-level King attacks a beginner-level Marquis; a high-level King attacks a high-level Marquis; a peak King attacks a peak Marquis…

When the difference in levels is too great, it becomes easy to kill an immortal being.

Therefore, Ye Xingkong's attack power at the initial stage of the King-level was not enough to pose the slightest threat to Bryce.

"Hmph! You want to die? I don't want you to die!"

"If I kill you with a single blow, how can I hone my swordsmanship? I have to slowly ravage you!"

Ye Xingkong's lips curled into a gentle smile, which sent a chill down Bryce's spine.

Killing Bryce would be incredibly easy.

Whether it's launching a surprise attack with a "million-strong insect army" from the start, releasing the Thousand Vine Star-Eating Grass directly, or activating the third level of the Five Elements Battle Armor to gain a 100,000-fold boost in World Lord power...

Ye Xingkong has plenty of ways to kill Bryce.

However, his main purpose in coming to the extraterritorial battlefield was to hone his swordsmanship!
