Swallowing the Stars: Analyzing All Things

"Commander!"

The human leaders shouted excitedly, for the old man who had intervened was their legion's strongest support.

Lord Fan Yujun!

Above the battlefield, the true form of that immortal demon god finally appeared completely from the void.

This is a giant beast resembling a centipede, its entire body covered in dark golden carapace, emitting a faint, eerie green glow.

Its body is over a hundred kilometers long, and its thousands of arthropods are like thousands of giant scythes, slowly swaying in the void. Each arthropod leaves a faint cut in the air as it moves.

"Thousand-legged Centipede!"

Upon seeing the immortal true form of this demon race, Lord Fanyu immediately learned of its origin through the virtual universe.

The Demon Race is one of the four most powerful races.

In terms of numbers, they are no less than humans, and in terms of intelligence, they are no less capable. In fact, they are even more talented than humans. However, in terms of top-level combat power, they cannot truly suppress humans.

Unlike humans.

Compared to cultivation talent, the demon race places more emphasis on bloodline. Bloodline determines social status from birth, and it is difficult for ordinary demons to overcome the status gap caused by bloodline through growth.

The Thousand-Legged Centipede Clan is one of the royal families of the demon race.

Their bodies range in length from a few meters to hundreds of kilometers, and they are covered with dark golden carapaces. The most distinctive feature of this race is that in battle, their thousands of legs strangle each other at the same time, and their attacks are so dense that they are suffocating.

Besides.

It is covered in corrosive venom, making it most vulnerable to attack when caught off guard during combat.

The Thousand-Legged Centipede Clan is known for its ferocity and cunning within the demon race, making it one of the most feared adversaries on the outer battlefields.

Looking at the centipede swimming in the void, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of the Fan Yu Army Lord.

His hunched figure suddenly straightened, his withered hands slowly clenched into fists, and a vast aura surged out from his body.

"Kill them."

……

"kill--"

The human realm lords were the first to rush out, their vast world power radiating outwards, meeting the realm lord powerhouses among the demon race. In an instant, the roar of colliding energy rose and fell.

Realm Lord versus Realm Lord.

Domain owner to domain owner.

Cosmic level versus cosmic level.

The two major legions, human and demon, clashed directly in the void of the Misty Fallen Star Belt.

Lin Yan also rushed out with the other human warriors.

He wasn't worried about being targeted by immortal gods or other powerful beings. Unless he performed exceptionally well, immortals wouldn't bother to target those below the immortal level.

To put it bluntly—

Because it's worthless.

In the military merit system of extraterrestrial battlefields, how many military merits are worth for killing a cosmic-level being? For those immortal beings, it would be beneath them to take action for such a small amount of military merit.

Unless it's just a convenient thing to do—

After killing a hostile immortal god, one should clean up the surrounding immortal beings as well; otherwise, no immortal would stoop so low as to specifically clean up cosmic-level ants.

It's neither worth it nor dignified.

……

In the void.

Lin Yan's eyes were slightly closed, and a silver light flowed between his brows.

The mirage feather slowly rotated around him, transforming into a hazy silver mist, within which countless illusions arose and vanished.

"Splash splash~"

The silver mist surged forward like a tide, instantly enveloping the fourth-tier cosmic-level demon who was charging straight at them.

The demon warrior, wielding a heavy bone hammer with black baleful energy swirling around its head, was about to charge at Lin Yan when it froze the moment it was enveloped in the light mist.

Disappeared!

The enemy before it vanished, replaced by an endless ice field. Above, a pair of enormous blood-red eyes stared at it, and strands of crimson threads wove a net of death that enveloped it.

"Roar~"

The demon warrior swung his bone hammer in terror, smashing wildly in all directions, but in the next instant, his entire body shattered into pieces, and at the same time, his body outside fell silently into the void.

"die!"

We just finished dealing with this demon.

Lin Yan then felt a sharp attack coming from behind. He immediately used his movement technique to dodge it, and at the same time, with a thought, the Mirage Feather transformed into a huge illusory mirror wall.

"Um?"

The attacking demon warrior struck the mirror wall with his blow, only to find that his attack seemed to have missed. However, a strange mental force then surged out from the illusory mirror wall.

"Tch~"

An invisible needle pierces out.

The illusionary attack attached to the tip of a needle bombarded the depths of the demon's consciousness, dragging it into endless darkness.

"Lin Yan!!!"

Suddenly, an anxious voice came from the other side.

Lin Yan's gaze swept over and saw that Nanxi was being besieged by three cosmic-level demons. The three demons were working together seamlessly, forcing him to retreat step by step, and the situation was extremely critical.

Lin Yan did not rush over immediately.

He simply raised his hand from afar, and the mirage feather transformed into a thin silver mist, drifting silently toward the battlefield.

One of the demons was the first to be shrouded in the mist. Suddenly, its claws, which were attacking Nanxi, changed direction and attacked its companion beside it.

"You're insane!"

His companion was shocked and furious. He quickly blocked the attack, but was also forced to withdraw from the siege of Nanxi.

"It's a human illusionist!"

Another demon warrior came to his senses and immediately abandoned the siege of Nanxi, heading straight for Lin Yan's location.

The most annoying people on the battlefield are illusionists. These people may not be strong in direct combat, but their methods are unpredictable and difficult to guard against.

In particular, for these demon races of ordinary bloodlines, it is often a case of being outmatched.

"Haha, well done!"

Lin Yan greeted him with a smile. He was an illusionist, but also a controller. Whether in close combat or ranged attacks, he was not afraid of anything as long as he did not encounter those elite geniuses.

……

On the divided battlefield, the fighting continues.

The first to tip the scales was surprisingly the battlefield at the realm lord level, where the realm lord commanders of the 477th Legion cooperated seamlessly.

soon.

The first demon realm lord was besieged and killed.

This was a colossal beast with the body of a rhinoceros. It was suppressed by three human realm lords working together, and then cleaved from head to tail by a battle blade. Its enormous corpse immediately floated in the void.

Without hesitation, the three human realm lords who had freed up their hands immediately turned to the nearest other realm lord battlefield.

With four people surrounding and killing one, their advantage instantly increased.

The second demon realm lord was killed within a few dozen breaths, then the third, the fourth...

The scales tipped rapidly.

However, everyone on the battlefield knew that no matter how fierce the battle between the Realm Lords was, no matter how badly the Domain Lords fought, the two figures in the distance truly determined the balance of the battlefield.

The great battle of immortal gods.

Even across tens of millions of kilometers, its immense power radiates outwards like a tangible tide.

Each collision of those two immortal forces caused the entire star belt to tremble, and made all beings below the immortal level feel an instinctive tremor from the depths of their souls.

Because they all know—

Regardless of how the battle unfolds below, the immortal gods are the key to determining the true victory or defeat of an army.
