An emperor in his later years is summoned by his sister to save the nation's fate.

This is the Imperial Weapon, the Taiyin Immortal-Slaying Blade. Its blade is long and slender, with a dark red blood-red light flowing along its edge.

Simply by holding it in his hand, Lu Li could feel the extreme desire within the knife to slaughter all living beings and devour the souls of all things.

"A fine knife."

A cold glint flashed in Lu Li's eyes: "Now that I have obtained this peerless weapon, and with my cultivation breaking through and returning to its peak, it is time to use a worthy prey to consecrate the blade."

A name immediately popped into his mind.

The progenitor of the Overlord Body lineage, Cang Yan, was a supreme being from a forbidden zone who, in order to seize Lu Li's imperial bloodline, launched a sneak attack on him without hesitation when Lu Li was undergoing the tribulation of becoming a Great Emperor in the starry sky.

If Lu Li hadn't been ruthless and fought back desperately, he probably would have perished in that battle back then.

This progenitor of the Overlord Body was once an unparalleled emperor who dominated an entire era.

In his later years, in order to survive, he did not hesitate to cut himself, falling from the Emperor Realm to become the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone, and personally transformed the once prosperous Ancestral Star of the Overlord Body into a forbidden zone of life.

On the current ancestral star of the Overlord Body, apart from a few quasi-emperors who were specially left behind by him to be in charge of daily management, the vast majority of the Overlord Body lineage members have long been devoured by this ancestor as blood food to prolong their lives.

"Since I have attained enlightenment through killing, if I can personally slay a supreme being from a forbidden zone who was once an emperor, my path of slaughter will surely advance accordingly, and my cultivation will be able to reach a higher level."

Once Lu Li made up his mind, he casually waved his hand, and a decree containing supreme imperial power instantly rushed out of the Demon Palace.

"Summon the Three Venerables: Nine Netherworld, Blood River, and White Bone!"

In a short while, three figures exuding overwhelming demonic power tore through the void and knelt on the main hall of the Demon Palace.

These three are all powerful individuals at the peak of the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor, and are also Lu Li's trusted confidants who have fought alongside him in the starry sky for thousands of years.

The Nine Nether Demon Lord was shrouded in black mist, and he mainly cultivated the Soul Path derived from the Myriad Souls Emperor Scripture.

The Blood River Demon Lord had a head of blood-red hair, and his body was filled with surging blood energy. He mainly cultivated the Blood Path derived from the Blood Nerve.

The White Bone Demon Lord resembled a crystal-clear skeleton, with eerie white ghost fire flickering in his eye sockets, and he primarily cultivated the White Bone Path.

These three paths are all branches that Lu Li was proficient in and personally taught them.

"I, the Emperor, intend to march on the Ancestral Star of the Overlord Body and slay the old dog Cang Yan. You will all come with me."

Lu Li sat upright on the throne, his tone calm, yet exuding supreme domineering aura.

Upon hearing this, the three quasi-Emperor Demon Lords were first taken aback, then their faces showed fervor and excitement.

"Fight! Fight! Fight!" The three roared in unison, their fighting spirit soaring. They, as his subordinates, had always wanted to avenge the blood debt incurred when the Great Emperor was ambushed during his ascension to the Dao.

Now that the Great Emperor has not only lived a second life, but has also broken through in cultivation, he can finally vent his anger!

"Prepare the imperial carriage and set out on the expedition!"

Rumble! Nine pure-blooded black dragons pulled a pitch-black chariot, crushing the void as they rushed towards the Overlord Ancestral Star deep in the universe.

Meanwhile, Lu Li was on his way to the expedition.

Blue Star, an eternally dark wasteland.

It was already late at night, and Liu Mengxi was hiding in the lord's mansion built of obsidian.

Outside the stone house, a cold wind howled. Even with the obsidian's protection, what descended upon her territory tonight was not an ordinary monster, but a B-level monster—the Knocking Monster.

"Thump—thump—thump!"

The dull, rhythmic knocking seemed to strike Liu Mengxi's heart directly, turning her face deathly pale.

The rules of the knocking trick are: if you open the door, you will be killed; if you don't open the door, you will still die if you hear the knocking more than a certain number of times.

The moment countless spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the surface of the obsidian stone door, Liu Mengxi gritted her teeth and had no choice but to use her last trump card.

"Chu Renmei! Come out!"

A ghostly figure dressed in a dark blue theatrical costume, with disheveled hair, materialized in front of her.

This was the purple-quality ghost pet she had awakened. As soon as Chu Renmei appeared, she transformed into a cloud of yin energy and rushed towards the B-grade supernatural power that seeped in through the crack in the door.

However, the purple quality only represents the upper limit of growth, not the initial strength. At present, Chu Renmei is just an initial D-level creature that has not yet devoured other strange creatures.

Under the eerie suppression of the B-level, Chu Renmei's body trembled violently, her clothes began to tear, and she kept emitting painful screams.

"Hold on!" Liu Mengxi frantically activated the power of the Demon Hunter within her body, her face turning deathly pale from overexertion.

Fortunately, thanks to the weakened physical defenses of the Obsidian Lord's Mansion, and Chu Renmei's desperate resistance, even though both she and the ghost were nearly exhausted, Chu Renmei ultimately withstood most of the supernatural erosion and survived the knocking ghost's rule-based attack.

As the distant knocking faded into the distance, Liu Mengxi collapsed to the ground, her face pale.

Although she was in a terrible state, she still managed a proud, cold smile as she looked at the gradually stabilizing stone house.

"At least I had Obsidian and a purple ghost pet, and I almost lost my life. Lu Xueyao, who only had a green ghost pet, probably had her skin peeled off by the ghost by now!"

However, the comments in the official Dragon Kingdom live stream were completely different from what Liu Mengxi had imagined.

"That's it? This is a genius of purple quality?"

"Although she survived, it was so frustrating to watch! She was completely dominated the whole time, and even that female ghost named Chu Renmei was almost beaten to a pulp!"

"Upstairs, that's a B-level anomaly! It's a miracle they survived! Do you think everyone can cultivate immortality like Lu Xueyao with cheat codes?!"

"Yeah, guys, you guys need to check out the other livestream! Lu Xueyao has started cultivating immortality!"

Viewers who originally supported Liu Mengxi flocked to Lu Xueyao's live stream after seeing this stark contrast.

The contrast between the two situations instantly made Lu Xueyao's domineering demonic cultivation style attract countless fans.

Meanwhile, in South Korea's exclusive live stream room, a tragedy was unfolding.

Lee Hyun-soo, the chosen one of the Korean nation, also failed to find resources to establish territory on the first day.

He was hiding in a damp cave when he was attacked by a Class C supernatural being—the Water Monster.

Black, foul-smelling water seeped continuously from the rock walls inside the cave.

As if it were alive, the accumulated water quickly converged on Li Xianxiu.

At the critical moment, Li Xianxiu summoned his blue-quality pet—the Succubus.

A voluptuous, humanoid phantom with wings on its back appeared in the cave.

This succubus possesses a unique characteristic: it has a strong attraction to any living being, even the supernatural.

As the floodwaters drew ever closer, Li Xianxiu remained calm; instead, a greedy glint flashed in his eyes: "Go! Lure that water monster! If you can devour it, your quality and level will advance dramatically!"

The fastest way for a monster tamer to advance their monster pet is to devour other monsters.
