Chapter 89 Stigmata

After the Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace and the King of the Golden Mist Kingdom left, Lu Ming began to deal with the follow-up tasks.

On a derelict mineral planet in the Yin Ning Starfield.

"Your Highness!" the commander of the First Army Group said respectfully, "Those nine mission targets are now imprisoned in a separate world!"

In this mission, Lu Ming needs to personally kill ten targets, all of whom are Realm Lords.

One of them was attending a banquet on the capital planet of the Yin Ning Empire when he was caught in the aftershocks of the battle at the very beginning and perished.

As for the other nine, they were all captured alive by the First Army Group and imprisoned by the First Army Commander.

Although Lu Ming didn't care too much about the mission points, he wouldn't take the mission issued by the Virtual Universe Company passively.

"Let it out!" Lu Ming nodded gently.

"yes!"

Although the First Army Commander was somewhat puzzled, he still bowed slightly and looked at a large empty area on the mineral planet.

Immediately, nine dark red boxes appeared out of thin air on the open ground. Each box was nine meters long, wide, and high, and was made entirely of E9 grade metal.

The moment these nine boxes were released, they were about to soar into the sky.

"Hmph!" The First Military Commander snorted coldly, and his immortal power immediately spread out, directly suppressing and binding the nine dark red boxes.

"Your Highness, these nine boxes are incredibly sturdy, but although the nine Realm Lords cannot escape, they will likely carry the boxes around freely!"

Lu Ming calmly said, "Release all nine of them!"

"Let me do it!" Although Elder Qingfeng of the Xuanjia Clan also didn't know why Lu Ming was doing this, he stepped forward and took control of the nine boxes for Lu Ming's safety.

"Mm." Lu Ming nodded slightly.

Elder Qingfeng coldly looked at the nine boxes, easily manipulating space to trap them. At the same time, an invisible immortal power swiftly opened the nine alloy boxes, revealing nine realm lords.

"roar……"

"Who are you people?!"

"Why are you arresting me?"

When the nine people first came out, they were quite aggressive and struggled a bit, but this was the control and restraint of an immortal god at the King level, so how could they break free?

When they sensed the powerful aura of the group before them and confirmed that most of them were immortal gods, a look of fear immediately appeared on their faces.

"I'll give you a chance." Lu Ming stepped forward and looked at them.

"I will fight you fairly. If I cannot kill you, you will live." Lu Ming's gaze turned cold. "This is your only chance to survive."

"Want to fight you?"

Otto, Caster, Yuntai, and the other six people all looked at the black-haired youth in front of them with utter astonishment. He was only at the ninth level of the Domain Lord realm.

"Are you Lu Ming?"

"Lu Ming, the one who won first place in the Genius Battle?"

At this time, less than two hundred years had passed since the Genius Battle, and Lu Ming's appearance had not changed much, so the nine people easily recognized Lu Ming's identity.

"You just said that we should fight you, and if we defeat you, we can live. Is that true?"

The nine people had already given up hope when they saw the group of immortal gods behind Lu Ming, but their eyes lit up when they heard Lu Ming's words.

It should be noted that the weakest of the nine was a seventh-level Realm Lord, and two of them had already gained the recognition of the Origin Law.

Even if Lu Ming is the most outstanding genius in the universe, it is impossible for him to cross such an astonishing energy level gap at the ninth level of Domain Lord!

In Lu Ming's hands, let alone saving their lives, defeating or killing him would be an easy task.

Of course, even if they could defeat Sha Luming, they wouldn't dare to do it.

After all, Lu Ming was followed by so many immortal gods, which suggested that he held a very high status.

"You nine lives aren't worth me lying about!" Lu Ming said calmly. "As long as you can defeat me, you can live!"

"good!"

"We hope Your Highness will keep your word!"

The nine people exchanged glances, their eyes lighting up.

The First Army Commander glared at them fiercely and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, these are opponents at the seventh to ninth level of the Realm Lord realm. Realm Lords comprehend the laws extremely quickly. They've been at the Realm Lord level for so many years; in terms of law comprehension, even the weakest among them is around the eighth level of the Heavenly Bridge!"

"Especially that 'Moss,' who has gained some understanding of both the Law of Wind and the Law of Time, is already approaching the level of the tenth level of the Bridge to Heaven. Her understanding of the laws is not far from that of an ordinary immortal god!"

He cautioned, "Your Highness, the risk of fighting them personally is far too great!"

"First Army Commander, there's no need to worry." Lu Ming shook his head and smiled. "This is a mission given to me by the Virtual Universe Company. There are ten Realm Lord level experts in total, and I must personally kill them."

"Huh?" The First Army Commander was stunned, his face full of disbelief.

He is a member of Virtual Universe Company and is quite familiar with the company's situation.

It's normal for the Virtual Universe Company to issue missions for them to kill enemies themselves, but... generally, the opponents assigned to members of the Primal Secret Realm Domain Lord level will not exceed the ninth level of the Realm Lord level!

Ninth-tier Realm Lord?

How utterly inhuman and outrageous!

From a purely energy perspective...

A ninth-level Realm Lord is thousands of times stronger than a ninth-level Domain Lord!

Moreover, the ninth level of Domain Lord and the first level of World Lord represent a significant leap. Once one reaches the first level of World Lord, one possesses the power of a world and a world of their own, increasing their strength by more than tenfold!

Therefore, all things considered, it is not an exaggeration to say that there is a difference in energy levels of more than two thousand times!

Even if Lu Ming's understanding of the laws is comparable to that of a Marquis, he is still only a ninth-level Domain Lord. The other party has stayed in the Realm Lord stage for millions of years, and his understanding of the laws is not bad either. It would be as difficult as ascending to heaven for him to complete the mission!

The several immortal powerhouses of the Xuanjia Clan looked at each other in bewilderment. Is this how human races cultivate geniuses?

However, after a moment of surprise, everyone remembered that not long ago, even the Universe Venerable had come to assassinate this prince.

What they consider impossible is simply commonplace for such a genius who transcends common sense.

Upon learning that this was a mission issued by the Virtual Universe Company, the others immediately stopped trying to dissuade Lu Ming. After all, the Virtual Universe Company certainly valued this genius more than they did, and would not issue a mission that would inevitably lead to death.

Lu Ming turned to look at the nine powerful Realm Lords, who were all waiting with solemn expressions.

He stepped forward and calmly said, "Once the battle begins, let them all come at once."

Elder Qingfeng's pupils constricted immediately, and he exclaimed, "Your Highness!"

He originally planned to fight separately so that any crisis could be resolved in time, but fighting all nine realm lords at the same time... the chances of something unexpected happening were too great!

"Elder Qingfeng, listen to Your Highness," Lianyan King suddenly spoke up in a low voice.

Others might not know, but he knew that Lu Ming had two immortal-level support life forms attached to him, so he wouldn't be defeated by a few realm lords. Of course, he would definitely keep a close eye on the battle later to prevent any unexpected situations from occurring.

Elder Qingfeng glanced at Lu Ming again, and after confirming the order, nodded emphatically.

boom!

The terrifying restraints vanished instantly, but the group of immortals still stared intently at these people, who had no chance of escape.

Lu Ming took out his weapon and had Alice activate the virtual universe network for synchronous transmission.

……

"Your Highness Lu Ming, you are far too arrogant." The nine realm lords, now free to move around in the spatial prison, exchanged glances with Yun Tai and the other eight, then sneered.

Lu Ming glanced at them calmly and said softly, "You are too weak."

"Really?" Yuntai asked back.

In an instant!

The surrounding space instantly changed.

The nine realm lords projected their inner worlds directly, and the surging power of their worlds formed endless flames, gales, and golden light, mixed with lightning and blizzards. All sorts of forces devoured Lu Ming together.

Their faces were contorted with rage, their eyes flashing with ferocity. Some wielded melee weapons such as knives and guns, while others unleashed telekinetic weapons from a distance... and still others were gathering their souls to launch an attack.

Elder Qingfeng, the First Army Commander, and King Lianyan all watched this scene with tension.

At this time-

A dazzling beam of flame shot into the sky, seemingly piercing through the heavens!

Sizzle!

The strike, imbued with terrifying fundamental laws, caused a hole to appear in the universe where the spear tip pointed. The fiery spear light split into nine strands, each piercing one of the nine realm lords. The speed was so fast that no one could react.

The figures of the nine realm lords suddenly froze.

laugh!

In just a moment.

All nine fiery spear beams pierced through the bodies of the nine people, and at the same time, terrifying blue flames suddenly rose from their bodies, instantly turning them all into ashes!

The battle ended in the blink of an eye!

……

"How is this possible?" The Xuanjia Clan's immortals stared wide-eyed, their hearts trembling. "This... this really is a ninth-tier Domain Lord?"

"The spear's light is divided into nine strands, each capable of easily traversing the void. Is this a Domain Lord?" With the cultivation level of Elder Qingfeng of the Xuanjia Clan, he could naturally see things in more detail.

The moment Lu Ming's spear lit up, the spear light was almost tangible, and after splitting into nine strands, it could easily traverse the void, like "teleportation," without any spatial fluctuations, making it undetectable!

So the nine realm lords didn't even have time to react before they were killed.

Everyone present was deeply moved and unable to calm down when they witnessed such a breathtaking scene. Even King Lianyan was seeing Lu Ming kill in real life for the first time.

"Compared to a hundred years ago, Junior Uncle's understanding of the laws has become much stronger... I estimate that he will soon surpass me!" His understanding of the laws is at the 19th level of the Bridge to Heaven, which is already considered very strong among immortal gods.

But for a peerless genius like Junior Uncle, passing through the 19th level of the Heavenly Bridge was only a matter of time.

……

After the battle, Lu Ming walked towards the crowd with a very calm expression.

"Congratulations, Your Highness, on your victory!"

King Qingfeng hurriedly stepped forward, smiling as he said, "Your Highness's ability to easily kill these peak Realm Lords who have gained the recognition of the Origin Laws at the Domain Lord stage is truly incredible!"

"With a genius like Your Highness emerging from the human race, the future is sure to be even more prosperous!"

Assassination attempts by alien universe lords, killing peak Realm Lord level experts as easily as slaughtering pigs and dogs by a ninth-tier Domain Lord...

The events that have just occurred have made Qingfeng and the others from the Xuanjia Clan realize even more just how amazing Lu Ming's talent is!

King Qingfeng was even more certain that this mission was a good opportunity for their Xuanjia clan to make connections with the future leaders of humanity.

"Elder Qingfeng, you flatter me!" Lu Ming simply smiled and casually declined a couple of words.

His current true strength is such that killing a few ordinary immortal gods is not impossible. Killing a few realm lords is not even a warm-up.

……

After everything was finished.

The banquet hall of Huiyun Star was filled with a sumptuous feast.

Before Lu Ming, Lianyan Wang, and the First Army Lord were human food, including some exotic fruits and delicious meats.

On the other side, Elder Qingfeng and others from the Xuanjia Clan had some special alloys and special materials laid out in front of them.

Just as the Golden Horned Beast mainly eats metal, different life forms have vastly different food preferences.

"I must thank everyone for their help with this mission, especially the members of the Xuanjia Clan." Lu Ming raised his wine glass and smiled. "I'd like to propose a toast to everyone."

"Your Highness is too kind."

Elder Qingfeng and the other immortal gods of the Xuanjia clan all raised their glasses.

They were drinking a very thick liquid. If it were Lu Ming and the others, they wouldn't know how to drink it, but Elder Qingfeng and the others all enjoyed it very much and drank it down.

"We only have a meager strength. When we encountered danger, we were fortunate to be saved by the great Lord of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace," Elder Qingfeng said with a smile.

If the Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace hadn't suddenly appeared, none of the people present would have escaped.

"Your Highness."

Elder Qingfeng put down his wine cup and smiled, "After we finish eating, we will return to our homeland and our clan. Before that... I sincerely invite Your Highness Lu Ming to visit the place where my Xuanjia clan lives and dwells."

"This is also an invitation from the elders of our Xuanjia clan. Although our Xuanjia clan is just an ordinary clan, we will make sure Your Highness's trip is worthwhile."

Although the mission was short, Elder Qingfeng was able to see quite a lot.

He consulted the clan's council of elders beforehand. In order to build a good relationship with Lu Ming, the clan had prepared considerable benefits and even planned to give away a treasure that was extremely valuable even to a cosmic venerable!

The Xuanjia tribe is different from humans. Humans are ruled by a cosmic kingdom, while the Xuanjia tribe is composed of numerous tribes that fiercely compete with each other.

The Senate, which is high and mighty, is in charge of managing all the tribes of the Xuanjia clan!

One must become a respected elder to become an elder.

Elder Qingfeng was full of confidence. Although the Xuanjia Clan could not compare with the human race, it was still a huge race in the universe with an incredibly long history and its own unique heritage. If he wanted to curry favor with them, he would surely make Lu Ming return with a full harvest.

"I have heard that there is a mysterious and unfathomable sacred stone wall standing within the Xuanjia Clan. I wonder if I would have the honor of seeing it?" Lu Ming said with a light laugh.

With his current access level, he naturally knew some of the mysteries within the Xuanjia clan. The sacred stone wall, which the Xuanjia clan regarded as their lifeblood, did indeed pique his interest.

Upon hearing Lu Ming's words, King Qingfeng's eyes lit up, and his voice became somewhat excited: "Your Highness has also heard of the Sacred Mark Stone Wall within our clan?"

"Our Xuanjia clan's rapid rise in the universe owes a great deal to this sacred stone wall, and even now, it continues to benefit us immensely!"

"Yes! I've heard the Fifth Elder mention it before. If it weren't for the fact that only our Xuanjia Clan in the universe can utilize the power of this Sacred Mark Stone Wall, I'm afraid our clan wouldn't have been able to protect this supreme treasure at all..." The other Marquis Immortals of the Xuanjia Clan also showed expressions of admiration, and some even spoke out of the blue.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming smiled slightly.

As the Xuanjia clan said, if it weren't for the fact that many other races, including humans, were unable to discover the power of this sacred stone wall, this treasure would probably no longer belong to the Xuanjia clan.

"This sacred stone wall is said to be incredibly hard, so much so that even the elders of my Xuanjia clan cannot damage it in the slightest... However, this treasure itself has no effect; it is merely inscribed with strange, unknown characters, and is revered by my clan as a sacred mark!"

"No other powerful beings in the universe can decipher the mysteries of this sacred mark... Even my Xuanjia clan can only display the original power of this sacred mark by relying on our racial talent."
