Swallowing the Stars: Cultivate to Become Stronger.

Chapter 192 Self-Destruction! Hongmeng

The saying goes, "Strike while the iron is hot, and you'll kill him!"

Luo Shen had been thoroughly humiliated by the Xuanmu King, but now that his Mind Eye Blade had broken through, he was finally able to fight back and naturally wouldn't let his opponent off easily!

Even though the will of the Xuanmu King was already comparable to that of an invincible king, and even barely approached that of a cosmic venerable.

but.

Faced with the terrifying power of Luo Shen's Universe Venerable-level Mind's Eye Blade, he was almost powerless to resist. One Mind's Eye Blade after another bombarded the Xuanmu King until he had no chance to fight back.

He couldn't even muster the thought of escaping, let alone unleash his swordsmanship like before.

All he could do was clutch his head, which felt like it was about to explode, and scream as if he wanted to crush the brain that was being pierced by countless steel needles to stop the pain, but he couldn't muster any strength at all.

The King of Xuanmu simply couldn't understand how Luo Shen had managed to do that.

The current Xuanmu King, apart from still being able to roar, is nothing more than a piece of pork on a chopping board, completely at the mercy of others. Luo Shen's skull battle blade fell on the Xuanmu King one after another, and his armor was soon riddled with holes.

But compared to the mental torment, the physical pain actually made the Xuanmu King feel somewhat relieved.

After all, his divine body had already reached the limit of becoming a king and immortal.

However, due to the damage to his will, the Xuanmu King's body amplification technique had long been canceled, so his divine body's defense was much weaker than before. Luo Shen's skull battle blade, carrying a terrifying aura, easily sliced ​​through the Xuanmu King's body after his armor shattered.

Each strike easily slices away a portion of the Xuanmu King's divine body.

The divine aura of the Xuanmu King suddenly dropped significantly.

This unexpected turn of events shocked the Zerg Queen Immortal Nan Cheng and the Skeleton Needle King, along with other alien kings. It should be noted that the strength of the Xuanmu King was in no way inferior to that of Nan Cheng. In fact, in terms of individual strength, Nan Cheng was even slightly inferior to the other party in this restricted forbidden space.

Even the mighty Xuanmu King was rendered helpless by Luo Shen's outburst.

How on earth did humans create such monsters?

Compared to the many thoughts of the Zerg Queen, Immortal Nan Cheng, and other alien races, Yan Na only felt happy. Previously, she had been worried that Luo Shen's cultivation time was too short and that he might not be a match for the Xuanmu King.

Especially after seeing Luo Shen being forced to use the Wu-killing Wings, he couldn't help but come over to help.

But Nan Cheng was determined to hold her back, making it impossible for her to help Luo Shen escape. Fortunately, Luo Shen suddenly erupted, turning the tide of the battle. Only then did Yan Na relax and begin to seriously deal with Nan Cheng.

Previously, she only wanted to give Luo Shen more opportunities to hone his skills, which is why she didn't unleash her full power and instead slack off with Nan Cheng.

Now, the other party's actions have completely enraged her!

She decided to teach this ungrateful Zerg Queen, Nan Cheng, a lesson!

Luo Shen paid no attention to the various thoughts of the people present. At this moment, he wanted to weaken the divine body of the Xuanmu King to a certain extent and then enslave it!

Because Yan Na is currently engaged in a fierce battle with Nan Cheng, and the Killing King and his servants are also locked in a fierce battle with the Skeleton Needle King and other alien kings, Luo Shen can only enslave the Xuanmu King by first killing him until he falls into a deep sleep.

"If we can directly defeat the will of the Xuanmu King, it will save us a lot of trouble."

Luo Shen thought to himself.

Unfortunately, the Xuanmu King had already forged an indomitable heart along the way. Even though he seemed powerless to resist the Mind's Eye Blade, which was at the level of a Universe Venerable, his will remained taut and without the slightest flaw.

The weakening of the divine body will only weaken the consciousness, but will not reveal any flaws in his own will.

Therefore, Luo Shen had no other choice but to use this method.

Fortunately.

When the divine body weakens to a certain extent, the Xuanmu King's strength becomes even weaker, and his divine body's defense also becomes worse. Previously, Luo Shen's strike might only be able to take away three percent of the opponent's divine body, but now a single strike can take away more than ten percent of the Xuanmu King's divine body. In fact, the weaker the strength, the more obvious the attack effect becomes.

When the Xuanmu King's divine body dropped to less than 20%, his strength was reduced to only one ten-thousandth of its original value.

Clang!

With another slash, less than 10% of the Xuanmu King's divine body remained. He finally fell into an endless slumber, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would slowly perish in this eternal sleep.

But Luo Shen would not let him fall.

After enslaving the Xuanmu King, he will purchase divine body restoration materials to awaken the Xuanmu King and restore him to his original state, making him the strongest protector of Earth!

Swish!

Now is not the best time to enslave the Xuanmu King, even though we have taken his body into our inner world.

He still has to deal with the Skeleton King and the Zerg mother hive, South Punishment.

Luo Shen glanced at the remaining two battlefields. At this moment, the Zerg Queen Nan Cheng was already in retreat under Yan Na's offensive and was no match for the unleashed Yan Na. On the other side, Killing King and others were still fighting bitterly with Skeleton Needle King.

Since that was the case, Luo Shen no longer hesitated and headed straight for Skull Needle King and the others.

"The sun is rising!"

Before the men even arrive, swords flash and the path is cleared!

The dazzling blade light, carrying unparalleled power, almost instantly tore through the sky and arrived in front of the Skull Needle King. Even from a great distance, the Skull Needle King could clearly feel the terrifying power contained in the Skull Blade.

Caught between two attacks, the Skull Needle King had no choice but to burn his immortal divine body again, forcing the Killing King back before taking Luo Shen's blow head-on.

"Clang!"

With a sharp crack, the Skull Needle King was blasted backwards for hundreds of thousands of kilometers before barely managing to stop.

"Damn it, what on earth did this human Luo Shen eat to grow up like this?"

Skull Needle King cursed inwardly.

He had witnessed Luo Shen's battle with Xuanmu King very clearly. Even a super strong person like Xuanmu King was no match for Luo Shen, so it was even less likely that he, Skull Needle King, could stop Luo Shen's progress.

He wasn't afraid of being enslaved.

Because he has already been enslaved by Nan Cheng, even if Luo Shen is stronger, he cannot bypass Nan Cheng and violate the rules of the universe to enslave him.

What the Skull Needle King was truly worried about was that if he were defeated like the Tomb King, his master, Nan Cheng, would also be in extreme danger. As a servant, the Skull Needle King had long since disregarded his own life and death; the only thing that truly mattered was his master.

"My life belongs to my master. I cannot let my master be in danger. I must clear the obstacles for my master!"

After burning his immortal divine body twice, the Skull Needle King still has more than 90% of his divine body remaining, and his strength is still at its peak. If a King-level expert were to burn his divine body and self-destruct, the power would be so great that even a Universe Venerable would be severely injured if he tried to withstand it.

Therefore, the Skull Needle King has made up his mind to trade one for one with Luo Shen!

No matter how strong Luo Shen is or how many tricks he has up his sleeve, he is still just a realm master and there is absolutely no way he can avoid his self-destruction!

Once Luo Shen falls, the Soul Slaughter King and other soul servants will follow him and perish as well. Only Yan Na will remain. With the help of the other soul servants, Nan Cheng will definitely be able to escape safely!

This is what the Skull Needle King was thinking.

Luo Shen was unaware of the Skull Needle King's inner thoughts. He was still thinking that as long as he swept away all the kings here and took over Nancheng, Earth would truly stand up in the universe!

With two super-powerful beings who are almost invincible and destined to become kings in charge, Earth can have a place in the universe even without the protection of the human race!

and.

With the strength of Nan Cheng and Xuan Mu Wang, once they break through to the level of Universe Venerable, they will at least be high-level Universe Venerables, no less than the so-called Eclipse Fire Venerable!

The safety of the Earth will be further enhanced!

Because a portion of Nan Cheng's strength resides in the Skeleton King, and it is precisely because of the Skeleton King's protection that Nan Cheng is able to command the Zerg Immortal Legion warriors to unleash their strongest attacks without restraint. Therefore, Luo Shen did not intend to kill the Skeleton King immediately.

That's why.

When the Skull Needle King approached, Luo Shen only held the idea of ​​suppressing him together with the Killing King, waiting for Yan Na to completely take down Nan Cheng.

result--

When the Skull Needle King's aura became unstable, the endless impact of his divine body's explosion bombarded in all directions. The terrifying power of a fully-powered, limit-limit divine body self-destructing rushed towards him, and Luo Shen was almost stunned!

What the hell!

You're a powerful expert at the peak of your strength, yet you suddenly started playing the role of a human bomb?

There was no time to think.

Normal attacks, such as the explosion of the Vulcan Source Crystal, mostly involve the mutual annihilation of energy. The vast majority of energy is consumed by each other, just like Luo Shen's previous continuous destruction of the Xuanmu King's divine body. This is a kind of annihilation, so naturally there won't be much of a commotion.

However, when the Skull Needle King self-destructed, it was as if his body had transformed into a burning Fire God Source Crystal!

Luo Shen was a realm master, and no immortal divine body could withstand the self-destruction of the Skull Needle King's divine body. The only option he could take was to close the Wu-Slaying Wings and protect himself within them, while the Moyun Vine transformed into an inner armor to offset some of the energy impact.

Fortunately.

Although the Skull Needle King self-destructed with its full power, its power was nearly ten times that of the strongest Vulcan Source Crystal explosion. However, because it took place in a wide forbidden area rather than a narrow space, the power was quite evenly distributed and burst out in all directions. Luo Shen only needed to withstand this wave of energy impact.

"Rumble~~~"

Enveloped in silver, Wu-slaying wings, and protected by the Moyun Armor, Luo Shen faced a terrifying self-destruct attack almost instantly.

Luo Shen was instantly blasted away into the distance, spinning as he flew. The shockwave, weakened by the Wu-Slaying Wings, was reduced to only one-tenth of its original power, which was the power of the strongest Fire God Source Crystal's self-destruction.

The Cloud Armor was further weakened, reduced by more than 90%.

The remaining power then bombarded Luo Shen's body.

Almost instantly, Luo Shen felt a tightness in his chest and couldn't catch his breath. Even with a life gene level thousands of times higher and his body amplification technique pushed to its limit, his body was still only at the peak of the Realm Lord level. The power of the self-destruction of the strongest Fire God Source Crystal caused Luo Shen's body to shatter instantly.

Fortunately, the continuous supply of world power from the primordial world within his body allowed Luo Shen to withstand this wave of impact amidst constant destruction and repair.

Until you can no longer feel the impact from the outside world.

"call!"

Luo Shen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As Wu Shi spread his wings, Luo Shen looked at his shattered Moyun Battle Armor and his body covered in blood scabs. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It was so close. If we were in a confined space, my body would have collapsed instantly."

Although he had great faith in the defensive capabilities of the primordial world within his body, Luo Shen dared not gamble.

Fortunately, everything is under control.

**********

Just as Luo Shen was rejoicing that he had escaped a calamity, in a vast hall in a certain dimension of the virtual universe...

The hall contained a total of 108 ancient thrones, each occupied by a powerful figure, whether human or from another race, each radiating a powerful aura.

"We have gathered everyone here because, according to information from the extraterritorial battlefield army system, the human realm lord Luo Shen has successfully killed a King-level Limit Immortal God!" A tall human, clad in purple armor and wearing a strange cross-shaped helmet, said in a deep voice from one of the thrones.

"impossible!"

"How could a Realm Lord possibly kill a King at the limit of his power! Even Kodi couldn't do that back then. How long has he been cultivating? I don't believe it! I demand to see the video footage from the military's surveillance system!"

"I second that!"

The proposal was met with immediate rejection from numerous super-powerful entities.

This is no longer as simple as killing an Immortal being of a higher level!

To kill a King-level expert with the body of a World Lord is an extremely rare feat, even in the entire universe. After all, to reach the King-level limit, every individual has cultivated secret techniques, treasures, and divine body amplification techniques to a certain extent.

Not to mention that the limit of the King-level only requires burning a portion of the immortal divine body, which is already 100,000 times or even a million times the power of the peak World Lord!

The tall, purple-armored figure spoke in a deep, cold voice: "Gentlemen, a Realm Lord capable of killing a Limit-Establishment Immortal God—regardless of the methods he used—is recognized by the Military Merit System as having accumulated merits on him. According to our regulations, Luo Shen fully meets the requirements, and we should recruit him into the Hong Alliance!"

"I second that!"

"I second that!"

Some powerful beings hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

After all, Luo Shen was the personal disciple of the Chaos City Lord. Even if he was given a special treasure by the Chaos City Lord, which allowed him to kill a King-level expert at the World Lord level, Luo Shen was indeed in accordance with the rules.

Who can blame them for having such a good teacher?

You can't have it by envying it.

However, where there is agreement, there is also opposition. For example, a certain alien venerable who was jealous of the genius raised an objection: "Venerable Yezheng, the official members recruited by the Hong Alliance are all true powerhouses from various races! If Luo Shen really killed someone using his treasures or special means, that would indeed prove his strength. But what if his protector killed the alien king? The military merit would naturally be attributed to Luo Shen. What would happen then?"

"So I'm requesting to see the battle video!"

The Venerable Yezheng, clad in purple armor, shook his head and said, "This situation does exist, but the city lord has already set access permissions for all of Luo Shen's battle videos. None of you present, including myself, have the right to watch them!"

Upon hearing this, all the great beings were immediately rendered speechless.

Among the human race, only the Chaos City Lord can be called the City Lord. Since the Chaos City Lord personally set the authority, it is estimated that only the Universe Lords among the entire human race can watch it.

Venerable Yezheng added, "However, as far as I know, Luo Shen used the identity of Blade King when he killed the Limitless King!"

The Venerable Ones present quickly searched and naturally learned all the information about the Blade King.

"Unexpectedly, among the human realm lords, there is such a heaven-defying super genius. As a realm lord, he defied the heavens to kill a peak-level immortal god. Excellent, very excellent! I agree to recruit Luo Shen into the Hong Alliance!"

"I second that!"

"I second that!"

Although Luo Shen's battle record using the title of Blade King was not extensive, it was enough to impress the cosmic venerables present. As a realm lord, being able to obtain the title of Blade King clearly shows that Luo Shen's strength in the extraterrestrial battlefield has been recognized by other alien races.

Given this, accepting Luo Shen into the Hongmeng is now a foregone conclusion!
