Swallowing the Stars: Speedrun with Card Draws, Dominating Destiny

Chapter 184 Victory Celebration Banquet

hum!

The chaotic black mist above the white jade platform rippled slightly, and a voice as deep as the starry sky, yet carrying an undeniable lightness, like the gentle tapping of jade, clearly reached the ears of every powerful figure: "Gentlemen! The universe is vast, and such a grand feast cannot last long. Let us first discuss important matters, and then we can enjoy the celebration to our hearts' content!"

It is none other than the Lord of Chaos City!

His voice held an unprecedented sense of relief and joy, as if a heavy burden had been lifted: "In this battle! Our clan exerted all its strength, fought through the blood-soaked Milky Way, and finally defeated the three clans, all thanks to the efforts of you gentlemen!"

The words were spoken, and the entire hall fell silent instantly!

"The rewards will now be conferred!"

"The Undying Venerable, the Ancestor of Witches, the Savage Overlord—and thirty-one other cosmic overlords!"

One by one, names resounded like thunderclaps throughout the hall!

"In times of crisis, they stand firm! Protecting their people!"

"Bestowed upon each person a supreme treasure!"

"Types and styles—can be freely selected from the treasure trove of the tribe!"

"hiss!!!"

All the Venerables, whether from the human race or the Hong Alliance, gasped in shock! Their gazes instantly focused on the thirty-one proudly seated cosmic overlords in front of them!

A total of thirty-one high-grade treasures!

This reward is extraordinary.

Even the most powerful beings in the universe possess only two of these supreme treasures; they are all obtained through arduous adventures. Now, they have acquired another one.

The Chaos City Lord's voice continued, "Erosion Fire Venerable, Purple Lightning Venerable, Black Annihilation Venerable—and three hundred and twenty-nine other high-level cosmic Venerables!"

"Reward - One common treasure per person!"

"Types and styles—can be freely selected from the treasure trove of the tribe!"

Those seated slightly behind the cosmic overlords, in the equally vast and powerful high-ranking seats, erupted in incredulous gasps and wild joy!

"We have it too?!"

"A common Arcana item—you can even choose it?!"

This means they can choose the most suitable weapons, armor, or even soul-defense treasures! Their actual value is no less than that of a random high-grade treasure! This reward far exceeds expectations!

The Lord of Chaos City continued, "Nine Swords Venerable, Iron Wall Venerable, Sky Dome Venerable—and 1,908 other mid-level universe Venerables!"

"Reward - One top-tier treasure for each person!"

"Types and styles—you can freely choose from the treasure trove of your ethnic group!"

numbness!

Absolute numbness swept through an even larger group of intermediate Venerables!

Top-tier treasures! And you can choose them yourself! This is a configuration that many Venerable Ones dream of!

The final voice, like a resounding bell, proclaimed: "Venerable Barbarian Axe—and three thousand and eighty-nine other Cosmic Venerables!"

"Special Gift—One priceless treasure for each person!"

"Types and styles—you can freely choose from the treasure trove of your ethnic group!"

Like the final wave, it swept over all the novice Venerables! A precious treasure! Though not as dazzling as a supreme treasure, it was still a powerful weapon on the battlefield, enough to save lives and kill enemies! Especially for those Venerables from the Hongmeng alien races who were relatively poor in resources, "The human race is truly generous!" A novice Venerable from the vassal race "Rock Rock Clan" trembled with excitement, and tears even welled up in his eyes!

One of his chosen treasures would be enough to elevate his strength to a whole new level!

"Humans—" another alluring plant life master whispered, her branches and leaves swaying excitedly.

"Next time! Next time the race gives the order, we will fight with all our might!" The powerful members of the Hongmeng alien race roared in their hearts. "Following the human race, you can be resurrected if you fall, and you can get great treasures just for participating in the battle! Looking at the primordial universe, are there still such good things?!"

The entire Pantheon was filled with a burning, almost ignited, gratitude and fervor! The human race's own powerful figures were still able to maintain some composure, but the Venerable Ones of the Hong Alliance had already etched gratitude into their very souls!

The Chaos City Lord's voice rang out again, "The above are merely rewards."

"Your battlefield achievements have been accurately calculated by the virtual universe system!"

"As resolved by the highest tribal council—all military merits accumulated by all participants in this decisive battle—"

"Tenfold payout!"

"hiss-!!!!"

This time, the gasps of astonishment were deafening! Even the unyielding immortals and supreme rulers of the universe, who sat as steady as mountains, couldn't help but shrink their pupils!

Ten times the military merit?!

For them, the treasures and resources exchanged for ordinary military merits were indeed like pocket money, not worth mentioning. But this tenfold settlement—the enormous amount it represented, even converted into clan contribution points, was definitely a considerable fortune!

For Venerable Fiery and Venerable Nine Swords, who are high-level and mid-level Venerables, "Ten times?!?!" Venerable Fiery's hand holding the jade cup trembled violently, and the golden divine wine almost spilled! A terrifying light burst forth in his eyes! His strength had already steadily reached the level of a high-level Venerable, and what he lacked to become a cosmic overlord was only the accumulation of some treasures and secret techniques.

Now, with both the reward of rare treasures and ten times the military merit, he may soon have the resources to become the overlord of the universe.

"Heaven is on my side!!" Nine Swords Venerable roared in his heart! The military merits he needed for the last few auxiliary materials for the top-tier flying sword blueprint he had been dreaming of were instantly filled! He even had enough to exchange for a few more rare treasures to temper his divine body!

"Regret!!" Many Venerable Ones beat their chests and stamped their feet, filled with deep regret! They regretted not fighting harder and killing more Venerable Ones from other races!

"We've struck it rich! This time we've really struck it rich!" Some Venerables were so overjoyed they almost lost their composure. The tenfold military merits instantly granted them the qualifications to exchange for the treasures they had always dreamed of! A top-tier set of treasures tailored to their specifications? Even requests to forge ordinary treasure components? All of these had become within reach!

The entire Pantheon was instantly ignited from numb ecstasy into hysterical frenzy! Tenfold military merit! This was no longer just icing on the cake; it was a resource powerful enough to change the development trajectory of many Venerables.

One has to admire the profound heritage of the human race.

All eyes were fixed on the white jade platform shrouded in chaotic black mist, filled with unprecedented awe and fervor! At this moment, the cohesion of the clan reached an unprecedented peak!

Faced with the crowd's enthusiasm, Lin Yi simply lowered his head, drank his tea, and remained silent.

These rewards couldn't stir even the slightest ripple in his heart.

The 65 high-level cosmic venerables, Dragon Tan Flame Worms, and 65 sets of ordinary treasures he lost in this decisive battle in the extraterrestrial battlefield were far more valuable than these rewards.

Suddenly, Lin Yi noticed a familiar gaze falling on him and realized something was wrong.

The next instant, the Chaos City Lord's voice was filled with praise, "Finally, as a reward for the greatest contributor to this battle, Overlord Lin Yi, a top-tier soul defense treasure!"

A top-tier treasure for soul defense!

Everyone, including the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master and the Ancestral Tree Venerable, top cosmic overlords, turned their heads in surprise.

A top-tier soul defense treasure, its value is comparable to that of an ordinary peak-level treasure.

Clearly, this was a reward from the tribe for Lin Yi's merits, as well as a protection for him, to prevent him from being enslaved by the souls of other races.
