Man is devouring, waves are traveling through the universe

Beneath the ancient Enlightenment Tree.

Ye Xingkong sat cross-legged on the ground, holding a white chess piece, carefully studying the chessboard in front of him.

The black and white chess pieces appear to be randomly scattered on the chessboard, yet they seem to subtly conform to some profound truth.

Ye Xingkong stared at the chessboard in front of him, pondering for a long time before finally placing a piece.

Playing chess is also a way to gain enlightenment.

hum~
When the last white piece was placed, the entire game suddenly trembled.

Instantly, the 36,000 chess pieces connected together, gradually merging with the chessboard below to form a vast and powerful starry sky.

"I have finally comprehended the third level of the Myriad Stars Secret Technique."

Ye Xingkong's eyes remained calm as he waved his hand and put away the void chessboard.

With his accumulated experience over many years, breaking through to the seventh level was just a natural progression and not something to be particularly happy about.

"Having mastered the seventh-tier secret technique, and with the addition of a supreme treasure, I can now be considered to possess eighth-tier combat power!"

Ye Xingkong took out a pot of fine wine, took a small sip, and was in a fairly good mood.

Based on strength, the Lords of the Universe range from Tier 1 to Tier 6.

And what about the strongest being in the universe?

Because of the suppression by the original cosmic will, even in the cosmic sea, the divine power used by the strongest beings in each universe is at the level of a cosmic lord with ten thousand times the genetic power.

Therefore, based on divine power, Ye Xingkong is actually no different from the strongest in the universe.

Even the most ordinary strongest being in the universe can unleash seventh-tier combat power!

Some who are doing well possess supreme treasures and can reach the eighth level!

Even without the most powerful treasures, the founder of the giant axe was still at the eighth-tier level!

If he were to obtain a supreme treasure, and with the help of the layers of secret runes contained within it, he would probably be able to unleash ninth-tier combat power!

As for the tenth-tier combat power, there is only one person, and that is the Primordial Ancestor!
The original ancestor was invincible throughout the universe, representing the absolute pinnacle of the universe's strongest being.

Looking across the three cycles of reincarnation, apart from the original ancestor, no one else has been able to reach this level.

Ye Xingkong himself comprehended the seventh-order secret technique "Myriad Stars" and, with the help of the most powerful treasure, unleashed eighth-order combat power, which is already quite good among the strongest in the universe.

"Ok?"

Ye Xingkong's expression changed slightly, and he sighed softly: "I just want to develop properly, why are there always treacherous people trying to harm me?"

Whoosh!
The next moment, he took a step forward, and his figure completely disappeared.

······
Extraterritorial battlefield.

Barracks Base No. 031.

Ye Qing, dressed in loose casual clothes, lay comfortably on the sofa.

After an epic battle ended, returning to the incredibly safe barracks base was the time when he was most relaxed.

In the eyes of all the powerful figures on the battlefields beyond the region, military bases are synonymous with absolute safety.

Has any military base ever been captured throughout history?
Perhaps it exists, but it's been so long that no one can remember it.

Boom~
Ye Qing closed her eyes slightly, trying to relax her tired nerves.

Suddenly, his eyes widened, a look of disbelief flashing across them.

His body instinctively tensed up, wanting to muster all his strength to break free, only to find that his body was firmly imprisoned, and he couldn't even breathe.

He didn't even have time to react to this irresistible threat of death.

Ye Qing was devastated to discover that all the life-saving techniques he was so proud of were now completely ineffective.

"who is it?"

"Who is targeting me!"

Ye Qing was shocked, but her eyes remained cold and calm.

There was no violent eruption as expected, no boundless fluctuations of divine power, and no mysterious fluctuations of laws...

Everything Ye Qing could see before her eyes—buildings, life, spaceships—vanished into thin air as if melted away.

Annihilation!

A AAA-level divine base with a diameter of millions of kilometers, as huge as the sun, containing hundreds of millions of powerful beings, from cosmic level to king-level immortals, who were annihilated before they could even react.

It was like having a dream, and dying in the dream without any awareness.

In the silent, cold starry sky, it was as if no military base had ever existed.

Only Ye Qing, like a tiny speck of dust, floated in the empty universe.

Am I... going to die?

"What kind of method is this? Is it from a cosmic sovereign or a cosmic lord?"

Ye Qing felt extremely unwilling.

He was the Sword Formation King, a realm lord who killed an invincible king. Countless alien beings in the universe trembled in fear at the mere sight of him.

Wherever he went, no foreign king dared to linger within a radius of one light-year.

This is the formidable reputation that the Sword Formation King earned through his battles!
But now, he doesn't even know who his enemy is, yet he's destined to die a pathetic death here.

"Ugh!"

A low sigh suddenly sounded.

Ye Qing, who had already given up hope, suddenly widened her eyes.

That...that familiar voice!
"Lord of Changjiu, Lord of Hongyu, Lord of Taiju".

"I, Ye, have such great influence that I can actually get three fifth-order universe lords to personally take action."

Ye Xingkong, dressed in white, seemed to have come from the ends of the universe, walking step by step towards this starry sky.

"Lord of the Primordial Chaos, you have finally come!"

In the starry sky, three majestic figures with divine might suddenly appeared, each a great being renowned throughout the universe.

"madness!"

Lord Taiju coldly stared at Ye Xingkong, a hint of pity flashing in his eyes.

To risk one's life for a mere World Lord-level life, placing oneself in an extremely dangerous situation, is not the mindset of a true powerhouse.

“Master Hongmeng, there are not many people who can survive the combined attack of the three of us.”

"Today, I ask you to face your death!"

The Lord of Changjiu laughed loudly.

Boom~
A dazzling golden light flashed and disappeared in an instant, and then the entire area within a radius of several light-years was transformed into a golden sea of ​​waves.

As the only one among the three universe lords to possess a supreme treasure of the pinnacle domain, the Lord of Changjiu directly burned his divine power to maximize the power of his supreme treasure, "Mifeng Realm".

In an instant, the Lord of Taiju arranged nine towering purple prism towers in the starry sky.

Each prism tower is one light-year tall, and beams of purple energy converge between them, instantly weaving a purple prison covering several light-years.

The prison composed of these nine prism towers exudes a subtle oppressive power. Although it cannot compare to the pinnacle of domain-type treasures, its power is comparable to the domain treasure "Mifeng Realm" of the Lord of Changjiu.

As for the Zerg's Ruby Lord, he remained hidden from beginning to end, launching one terrifying soul attack after another.

The three fifth-order universe masters are indeed extremely experienced in combat.

With their combined efforts, they didn't give Ye Xingkong any chance.

Of course, since the battle was taking place in the primordial universe, the time left for Lord Changjiu and his companions was limited.

After all, no matter how far away, the human universe master in the primordial universe could quickly arrive through divine kingdom teleportation or instantaneous travel.

From the moment the Lord of Changjiu destroyed the No. 031 military base, the human virtual universe detected the anomaly and sent a message to the Lord of Chaos City at the fastest speed.

The Lord of Chaos has an avatar that resides in the Primal Universe. This avatar doesn't need to do anything; it simply stays at the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company, specifically to prevent attacks on human territory by alien universe lords. However, even if it receives the news immediately, it will still take at least one hundred seconds for this avatar of the Lord of Chaos to reach the Third Extraterrestrial Battlefield.

In just one hundred seconds, the three cosmic lords, including the Lord of Changjiu, killed Ye Xingkong.

This is why it takes the three races mobilizing three fifth-tier universe masters to kill just one second-tier universe master.

After all, one hundred seconds is a very short time. If they cannot kill Ye Xingkong instantly and allow him to hide in a palace-type treasure, their operation will be considered a failure.

"Do it!"

"kill!"

"die!"

Faced with the combined attack of three fifth-order universe masters, Ye Xingkong remained calm and composed, and it was difficult to see even a trace of emotion on his face.

Drop~
The sound of a water droplet falling onto the lake rang out.

Ye Xingkong calmly took out the Void Chessboard, and with a wave of his hand, the starry sky within dozens of light-years around him suddenly trembled.

Boom~
Boundless divine power spread out, and the vast and ancient chessboard of heaven and earth was fully unfolded, steadily suppressing the Mi Feng Realm of the Lord of Changjiu.

"how is this possible?"

The Lord of Changjiu was slightly taken aback, as if he had seen something incredible.

"The Mi Feng Realm is a top-tier treasure among domain-type treasures. Combined with my Myriad Thunder and Thousand Shadow Domain, it is second only to the strongest treasure among domain-type treasures!"

The Lord of Tai's tone was also full of horror.

The Myriad Thunder and Thousand Shadows Domain was a weapon he personally created using the methods of the Mechanical Race. Its greatest feature is that it can be stacked with domain-type treasures.

It can be said that only the Mechanical Race can create the three major cycles of the entire cosmic sea; it is a closely guarded secret of the Mechanical Race.

It must be said that the universe is incredibly vast, and the number of races and forces is countless.

Some unique ethnic groups, through long years of research, have indeed been able to create some special methods.

"What a coincidence!"

"My Void Chessboard is precisely the most powerful and precious treasure!"

Ye Xingkong's cold voice came through.

"This...this is an ultimate treasure?"

"Humanity has managed to acquire an extremely powerful treasure without anyone knowing!"

Both the Lord of Changjiu and the Lord of Taiju were shocked.

The most powerful and precious treasure... In the primordial universe, it would be a clan's most treasured possession.

Even the strongest beings in the universe rely entirely on luck to obtain an ultimate treasure.

What surprised them even more was that even if the human race obtained a supreme treasure, it should be given to the creator of the giant axe first, or at the very least to the Lord of Chaos City.

Giving it to Ye Xingkong, a newly promoted universe master... something just doesn't seem right!

"Could it be that the Hongmeng Dao Lord is even stronger than we imagined?"

The Lord of Crimson Jade had a vague sense of foreboding.

However, before they could react, Ye Xingkong reached out and pointed at the void in front of him.

The Void Chessboard uses the cosmos as its board, with 36,000 black and white chess pieces scattered across the sky like stars.

"town!"

As Ye Xingkong's voice fell, the nine black chess pieces instantly transformed into a majestic and towering divine mountain, surrounded by endless chaotic energy, and fiercely suppressed the Lord of Crimson Jade.

"thunder!"

Then, twelve more white chess pieces fell, transforming into a terrifying crimson lightning bolt that forcefully cleaved through the Myriad Lightning Shadows Domain and directly struck the divine body of the Lord of Taiju.

"cut!"

Immediately afterwards, thirty-six black and white chess pieces fell, forming a phantom image of a large jade-colored sword that stretched across hundreds of millions of kilometers of starry sky.

Boom~
With a single slash, carrying unparalleled power, it struck the Lord of Changjiu.

Ye Xingkong easily neutralized the full-force killing moves of the three fifth-order universe masters.

As for Ye Qing?

The attention of the three powerful races, including the Lord of Changjiu, was not on him to begin with, and Ye Xingkong withdrew him before the battle even started.

boom! boom! boom!
The Lord of Changjiu, the Lord of Hongyu, and the Lord of Taiju were all sent flying backwards, their faces extremely ugly.

Ye Xingkong single-handedly defeated three opponents, easily crushing them all.

"Sixth rank...this is sixth rank strength!"

As the Lord of Changjiu felt his own divine body annihilating, his voice became extremely solemn.

In a situation where he was fighting three against one, a single casual strike annihilated one ten-thousandth of his divine body.

"How is that possible? He's a newly ascended universe lord. Even if he has the most powerful treasure, how could he reach the sixth rank so quickly?"

The Lord of Red Jade and the Lord of Taiju were also filled with shock.

"Three!"

"Since you've gone to such lengths to see me, then stay here today."

A hint of coldness flashed in Ye Xingkong's eyes.

The seventh-tier secret technique, "Ten Thousand Stars"!
boom! boom! boom!
Ye Xingkong's perfect genetic level divine body directly burned divine power, and the mighty divine power poured into the void chessboard like a great river.

Suddenly, 36,000 black and white chess pieces appeared on the cosmic chessboard, emitting a tremendous roar.

The Lord of Changjiu, the Lord of Hongyu, and the Lord of Taiju all felt a terrifying life-or-death crisis as they looked at the black and white chess pieces that resembled the stars in the sky.

Just now, Ye Xingkong made a casual move, using only a few dozen chess pieces, and yet he displayed sixth-level combat power.

How powerful will these 36,000 pieces be this time?

"not good!"

"Quick! Quickly hide inside a palace-type treasure!"

The Lord of Changjiu roared, his voice carrying a hint of fear.

"This……"

A hint of hesitation flashed in the eyes of the Lord of Crimson Jade.

When you are at a disadvantage in your domain, hiding in a palace-type treasure is tantamount to giving up resistance. The only possible outcome is suppression!

However, because of that moment of hesitation, it was all too late.

Thirty-six thousand black and white chess pieces formed a black and white millstone with a diameter of nearly three light-years in the starry sky, which at first glance looked a bit like a yin-yang symbol.

The enormous Tai Chi diagram rolled in like a millstone, with endless chaotic energy swirling around it, crushing the surrounding space into particles and creating numerous dark spatial cracks.

Faced with this terrifying attack, the Lord of Crimson Jade even stopped breathing, her eyes filled with horror.

"No!"

A terrifying voice echoed through the starry sky.

The aura of the Lord of Crimson Jade suddenly weakened significantly, as 10% of his divine body was directly annihilated.

Ye Xingkong watched this scene expressionlessly, without any surprise.

His seventh-tier secret technique, "Myriad Stars," combined with the supreme treasure "Void Chessboard," is his strongest killing move, with power sufficient to reach the eighth tier!

Eighth-order power
Of course, under the suppression of the primordial universe, it can only unleash the sixth rank at most, but this strike has reached the peak of the sixth rank, only a step away from the seventh rank!
Then, the enormous Tai Chi diagram continued its relentless crushing towards the Lord of Crimson Jade.

As Ye Xingkong maintained this strongest killing move, his divine power was naturally being consumed rapidly.

However, every time he expended a portion of his divine power, the Thousand-Vine Star-Eating Grass would immediately replenish it, so that on the surface, his divine aura appeared unchanged. (End of Chapter)
