The man was devouring, but the system was in the primordial world.

The two immortals attacked simultaneously, golden waves mixed with endless green vines, instantly shattering the void and frantically coiling towards the afterimage.

Unexpectedly, the latter took the lead, wielding a long sword and forcing back Cui Lang's halberd with a single blow, before colliding head-on with Bi Guang.

The two were immediately forced to retreat.

Then, the afterimage once again burst into extreme speed, rushing straight towards the crystal below.

Of course, chalk wouldn't let him have his way.

The earlier obstruction bought him a moment to make a move, and this delay was enough for him to intercept the other party and stop this reckless and arrogant Marquis Immortal.

That's right, a marquis has arrived!

Judging from his aura, he is most likely a low-level Marquis—with such meager strength, not even a King, yet he dares to rub his whiskers. Bai E will naturally not be polite to him.

Putting aside the fact that Bai'e is at his current level, activating a primordial spiritual treasure would definitely unleash the power of a king.

Even without using spiritual treasures, the fusion of the ten elemental laws is enough to contend with opponents at this level.

"Get the hell out of here, you damned rat!"

The enormous phoenix suddenly flapped its wings, its entire body bursting forth with bursts of blazing flames as if fighting for its life. Terrifying ten-colored light pierced through the sky, and it ripped down with a single claw.

Immediately, the immortal marquis felt a chill run down his spine.

Even the Azure Light God Lord standing to the side couldn't help but be shocked, and he spoke incoherently.

"This...this is...burning divine power?"

"It's not about burning divine power!"

Lord Cui Lang shook his head, looking at the suddenly 'erupting' chalk with surprise.

"It must be some kind of forbidden method—those ancient civilizations always created treasures with special effects. Look at the auras of those ten laws, aren't some of them not quite solidified?"

The Azure Light God Lord quickly turned his head and looked at the battlefield in the distance.

At this moment, the white chalk was like a demon, maintaining the sea of ​​fire that engulfed the dying night-light beast below, while also brandishing its claws at the immortal Marquis opposite, forcing the opponent to burn its divine power and begin to fight for its life.

Of course, the latter felt extremely frustrated at this moment.

I thought he was just a lucky realm lord who didn't dare to compete with a Marquis, but I didn't expect that Bai'e would be such a tough nut to crack.

After such an exchange, it's uncertain whether we'll be able to obtain the treasure, and our own divine body might even be depleted first.

"I, Lord Yan Sha, am resigning!"

"quit?"

Upon hearing the call for a title of nobility from the other side, Bai E was taken aback at first, then accelerated his attack. The endless claw shadows seemed to cover the entire world, and each strike was a replica of the innate divine restriction in the Tongtian Flowing Fire Pearl.

In an instant, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and the endless black mist was completely annihilated.

At the same time, Bai'e's angry shouts echoed, carrying a hint of disdainful mockery.

"Come and go as you please—do you think I can use this tactic forever? Since you've forced me to take action, you might as well stay here today!"

"I'll compensate you!!! I'll compensate you!"

"Three million Hunyuan, not a penny less!"

"I didn't kill the Lord of the Flame Realm... I'm a member of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance..."

"Then you should just die..."

Bai'e showed no sign of backing down. If you've offended them, so be it. If you can't pay them, why should they stay overnight?

"Wait, 3 million Hunyuan it is, I agree!"

The sharp claws that were about to fall paused, and then the huge phoenix reverted to human form, though its chalky white body was still burning with ten-colored flames.

"This is my account number, transfer the money!!!"

Threatened, the Immortal Marquis reluctantly took out his intelligent light brain, but in the next moment he suddenly turned around and flew straight to a passage that suddenly appeared to his left rear.

"boom--"

He was once again pinned down by White Cree's claw and subjected to a barrage of attacks. Most importantly, he discovered that the energy on White Cree's body had an extremely strange characteristic: it could penetrate his defenses and slowly dissolve his divine body.

So, was this a title of king or a title of marquis?

Feng Hou, whose divine body had been depleted by 3%, looked at the enormous phoenix, compared the size difference between the two, and calculated the decline in their auras. He sadly realized that even if he were to exhaust the phoenix to death, it would probably only scratch the surface.

Until then.

He finally gave up struggling, removed the half-open mask from his armor, and revealed his true face.

"The Shadow God Lord?"

Upon seeing that pale face with red eyes, the Azure Light God Lord in the distance was slightly taken aback. "You actually broke through!"

Immediately, both Bai'e and Cui Lang turned to look at Bi Guang.

"You know Biguang?"

"I know him. Hundreds of thousands of years ago, this guy was only a Military Lord Immortal, but back then, he displayed the strength of a High-Level Immortal. I didn't expect him to have broken through now!"

"The previous Space Mercenary Alliance..."

"He's lying to you!" Lord Cui Lang sneered.

"Most of us immortals are nominally affiliated with the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance. Given this relationship, the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance won't easily step forward. But at least we have some kind of business—well, if all else fails, we can just kill them and then annex the entire Shadow Empire to reap considerable rewards."

Immediately, the Shadow God became wary.

Bai'e chuckled softly, "How many coins is a mid-level civilization in the universe worth?"

"500 million Chaos Yuan, and I'll let you go!"

"Why has the price gone up again?"

"Give me the money, and have the virtual universe notarize an IOU. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind using your noble status to warn the brothers behind you—"

A reminder to the brothers behind... The Shadow God Lord, or rather the Shadow Marquis, suddenly had an ominous premonition.

He silently turned his head and, sure enough, found two or three figures exuding a powerful aura in the darkness in the distance. They were staring at him in a daze, their expressions a mixture of confusion and pity.

What are you guys sympathizing with?!

Youying Hou snorted coldly and used his personal computer to pay the compensation at lightning speed. However, because he had just broken through to the Marquis level, he could only scrape together 349 million Hunyuan even after he had managed to do so.

"We are still short 151 million Hunyuan."

"Or, you could just use this armor of yours to settle the debt..."

"I'll use the Shadow Empire as collateral to give you an IOU!!!"

Looking at Bai'e, who was itching to tear off his clothes, Youying Hou silently took a few steps back and clutched his Ningguang Divine Armor tightly.

In the end, Lord Youying managed to keep his armor and fled with a mountain of debt.

Meanwhile, the other immortals also retreated under the intimidation of the three immortals from the Cui Lang Empire, and incidentally spread the story of the Shadow God Lord... Shadow Marquis's heroic feat of being beaten instead of seizing the treasure.

Now the 'Flame Killing Realm Lord' is truly famous!

If he was merely a minor realm lord with immortal combat power before, this time he not only demonstrated impressive basic combat strength, but also possessed the means to threaten the title of Marquis.

A king or noble is the face of a nation!

To be able to rival kings and nobles, whether through comprehending the laws or through the proven dead end of 'energy fusion,' one must ultimately enter the top circle of the cosmic kingdom.

Of course, this change has both advantages and disadvantages.

On a human level, the identity of the Lord of the Flame Killing Realm can bring various conveniences to the Cretaceous One, allowing him to learn about various information that he did not know before.

As for those alien races who see humanity as their mortal enemy, the rise of the Flame Killing Realm Lord is undoubtedly yet another target to be set up... even if this target is far less important than those geniuses.
