I picked up attributes in Swallowing Star.

As the illusory figure of the Chaos City Lord looked at Luo Yuan, golden law runes flowed in his eyes. He said earnestly to Venerable Guiyi and Venerable Peilan, "This matter must not be revealed to outsiders. This is a blessing for the human race. I am truly looking forward to Luo Yuan's growth. It is only a matter of time before he surpasses me, and he may even be able to glimpse that supreme realm."

Venerable Guiyi and Venerable Peilan were stunned by the words of the Chaos City Lord. Who was the Chaos City Lord? He was the head of the Virtual Universe Company, one of the five giants of humanity, one of the Lords of the Hongmeng Palace, and the peak combat power of the human race. He actually said that Luo Yuan would surpass him sooner or later and reach an even higher realm. Above the Lord of the Universe was the realm of the True God, which was not at all on the same level as the immortal gods that everyone talked about.

Chapter 172 A Thousand Years

Within the spacetime interlayer, Luo Yuan's life imprint began to merge into his divine body, a sign of achieving immortality. From then on, he could survive as long as a trace of divine power remained. This was also the reason why he had to obliterate those kings and marquises who were immortals in the outer battlefield into nothingness.

As time passed year after year, two hundred years later, Luo Yuan's divine body transformation was 100% complete. His world power was completely transformed into divine power. From now on, all kinds of supernatural abilities and secret techniques would be much more powerful, and every move would contain the power of laws and gods. For example, he could use divine power to drive the black hole devouring technique, and it would only take a short time to devour those alien kings into nothingness.

After completing his breakthrough, Luo Yuan's divine body shrank continuously until it became the size of a normal human. His divine kingdom finally took shape. However, Luo Yuan's divine kingdom was different from that of ordinary immortal divine kingdoms. Ordinary immortal divine kingdoms would perish if destroyed, but Luo Yuan's divine kingdom only served as a bridge connecting him to the primordial universe. His origin was now the initial microcosm in his dantian.

If Luo Yuan's divine kingdom is destroyed, he can simply spend some time rebuilding it. If other immortals knew about it, they would probably be extremely envious. He's practically an unkillable cockroach.

After Luo Yuan recovered, he saw the phantom of the Chaos City Lord, which shocked him. Even his teacher had come to help him break through to the Immortal King realm. So he quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

The illusory figure of the Chaos City Lord sized up Luo Yuan, nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Luo Yuan, you really exceeded my expectations. We underestimated you before. Cultivate diligently, and when you have time, send your clones to the outer battlefields to earn more military merits. This will not only hone your skills but also reduce the pressure on the front lines of the clan's war."

Upon hearing this, Luo Yuan nodded seriously. The illusory figure of the Chaos City Lord waved his hand, and immediately the stars shifted, and they all returned directly to Chaos City. The figure of the Chaos City Lord had disappeared. Venerable Guiyi smiled and congratulated Luo Yuan. Then, this guy actually went to Luo Yuan's private manor and started eating and drinking to his heart's content.

…………

In the primordial universe, in Chaos City, Luo Yuan's private ancient-style manor.

Luo Yuan was drinking with Venerable Guiyi and Venerable Peilan in an open-air pavilion. They were drinking the Purple Fire Ape Wine that he couldn't afford before, which cost 800 billion points per bottle. This was just a drop in the ocean for Luo Yuan, who had gained a lot of military merits on the battlefield outside the domain.

"This is truly fine wine. Even I wouldn't dare drink this Purple Fire Ape Wine like this." Venerable Guiyi said as he took several sips, his face turning a deep red.

Luo Yuan poured him another cup and said, "Thank you, Second Senior Brother, for your help over the years and for protecting me for the past thousand years. I have no way to repay you, so I can only treat you to some good wine. However, I have some things I would like to ask you."

Venerable Guiyi laughed and said, "Speak, anything that interests you must be extraordinary."

"I just want to ask if there's a way or weapon that can kill someone with an immortal body in one go?" Luo Yuan asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Venerable Guiyi glared and said, "You brat, I do have some, but they're too expensive. Even I can't afford them. These kinds of items are beyond the rules, costing trillions of Chaos Units. Of course, you can check the Hongmeng's shop; with your current permissions, you can look at it."

Upon hearing this, Luo Yuan quickly separated a wisp of his consciousness to log into the Hongmeng System, and then entered the method that could kill the King of Immortality in one strike. As a result, a large amount of information appeared.

"The weapon Black Hole can form a black hole in any part of the enemy and then devour it completely. Even a Cosmic Venerable must be careful." This is different from Luo Yuan's "Black Hole Evolution" secret technique. The black hole weapon is aimed at a single enemy, while Luo Yuan's black hole devouring is an indiscriminate area-of-effect attack skill.

"The Soul-Destroying Aurora is an extremely powerful beam of light collected from the universe by high-level cosmic venerables. It can directly destroy the enemy's soul, and even ordinary universes may be instantly killed."

"Kaso Weapon, a super weapon made of special metal, can instantly shatter the divine body of an immortal-level expert. Even immortal-level experts with an immortal body can be killed instantly. The weapon style can be customized."

…………

Luo Yuan looked at each of the 203 items one by one, which dazzled him. They were all weapons that could instantly kill even the strongest King-level Immortals or invincible King-level experts. This made Luo Yuan feel for a moment that even the strongest King-level Immortals were easy to kill. However, these items were basically disposable, except for the Kaso weapon.

However, when Luo Yuan saw that the price of the Kaso weapon was 6 trillion Chaos Units, he realized that he had been fighting on the battlefield outside the domain for more than 300 years, and in his last battle he had slaughtered hundreds of billions of alien powerhouses. The total wealth he had obtained was only 10 trillion Chaos Units. This one weapon alone would cost him most of his wealth. However, he still bought it in the end because with this, he could harvest those alien kings as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

A month later, a Venerable One personally delivered the Kaso Dagger that Luo Yuan had purchased from the Hongmeng to Chaos City. The Venerable One also instructed him not to easily reveal that he possessed the Kaso Dagger, otherwise countless Kings would come to fight for it, and if he made a move, he would kill them all.

…………

Galaxy, Earth, China, Jiangnan Base City.

Luo Yuan arrived via teleportation through the divine kingdom of the immortal servants who had long been stationed there. As soon as he returned, he had a good reunion with Jiang Fang, since they hadn't met in reality for over a thousand years.

After a deep conversation that evening, Luo Yuan smiled at Jiang Fang, who seemed to have never aged. Over the years, she had managed to cultivate to the Realm Lord level using the resources Luo Yuan had left her, which was quite remarkable.

"It's been over a thousand years. I knew very few people back then. Luckily, you were by my side, otherwise I probably would have forgotten everything from the past. How have you been all these years?" Luo Yuan said affectionately, holding Jiang Fang in his arms.

Jiang Fang was silent for a while, her eyes reddening, and she said in a hoarse voice, "When I heard that you went to the extraterrestrial battlefield, I worried about you every day. So I often tried to contact you through the virtual universe. If I couldn't reach you, I would worry that something had happened to you. I know I can't help you, so I have been cultivating diligently."

"Relying on the resources you left behind, I cultivated to the World Lord level in just over a thousand years. Especially since you said before breaking through to Immortality that you didn't know how long it would be before we could meet again, I've been waiting. I just never imagined that this wait would last a thousand years. Everyone I know is gone. Besides you, I don't know what I have left."

Upon hearing this, Luo Yuan hugged her tightly, letting her pour out her heart. He explained that in this world, the higher the cultivation level of a cultivator, the longer their lifespan. However, the people around you may not be able to keep up with your pace. When you look back, you will find that all the people you know have disappeared one by one, leaving you with only endless loneliness. This is also why those strong people are basically surrounded by other strong people of the same level.

Chapter 173 Return to the Battlefield

The primordial universe, Chaos City.

Luo Yuan stayed on Earth for a hundred years before returning to Chaos City. During those hundred years, he used the secret technique of creating an external avatar to cultivate an even more perfect clone. This was a true immortal-level clone. Luo Yuan used this clone to conduct a strength simulation and found that the clone's strongest combat power was comparable to a beginner Venerable. As for his original body, it could withstand an hour of attacks from the Chaos City Lord in the killing field simulation without dying.

After creating this clone, Luo Yuan incorporated a Star-Eating Grass of the Marquis-level Immortal rank into its skin, which then transformed into a golden battle armor. He then took the newly purchased Kaso Dagger and prepared to head to the outer battlefield. This immortal clone also possessed a divine kingdom, but it was an ordinary one, no different from other immortals. If the divine kingdom was destroyed, then this clone would also be destroyed, which was fundamentally different from the original body.

According to the alien race's records, Luo Yuan is now considered dead. Therefore, when Luo Yuan created this immortal clone, he changed its appearance, making it look like an ordinary person who wouldn't attract attention in a crowd.

Since Luo Yuan reached the Immortal King title, he has been given the title of Chaos King. Perhaps some people have called him this name, but Luo Yuan said he likes it very much because the title is domineering enough and most people would not dare to call him this name.

…………

Extraterritorial battlefield, the seventh battlefield.

The main continent of Yanji is a supercontinent with a diameter of 1.8 light-years, roughly the same size as the current divine kingdom of Luoyuan. It is home to many powerful individuals, and any legion here could easily dominate other continental fragments.

Above the endless mountains of the main continent, a deep black F9-class spaceship sped by, carrying Luo Yuan's immortal avatar. He had come to this extraterrestrial battlefield again, and this time he was here to explore the main continent.

"Luo Yuan, after detection, there is an alien army below, belonging to the demon race. Among them are five King-level Immortals, twenty Marquis-level Immortals, and one million peak Realm Lords..."

"Luo Yuan, after detection, there is an alien army below, belonging to the Zerg faction. Among them is a Zerg Queen of the highest rank of King, twenty Marquis-level Immortals, one thousand ordinary Immortals, and ten million peak World Lords..."

"Luo Yuan, after detection, there is an alien army below, belonging to the Mechanical Race. Among them are three King-level Immortals, twenty-nine Marquis-level Immortals, and three million Peak Realm Lords..."

…………

Luo Yuan sat in the core area of ​​the spaceship, sipping fine wine while listening to the prompts from the intelligent minibus. This was a super detector that he had bought for hundreds of billions of points, capable of easily detecting the distribution of forces and the situation of powerful individuals within billions of miles, while other forces could not detect him at all.

Along the way, Luo Feng discovered that the Zerg did not have many high-end combatants, but the most numerous were Immortal-level Zerg warriors. After all, their group attacks were powerful. Luo Yuan was only one person, so he couldn't just run into an alien army and wreak havoc, because he would be surrounded and ganged up on. You should know that there are quite a few alien kings here who can teleport.

Going directly to kill the enemy is too risky. After all, creating an avatar, especially a King-level Immortal avatar, is not easy. Not to mention the resources required, just integrating the divine power of the laws to shape the divine body is very troublesome. Even so, it took Luo Yuan a hundred years to complete it. Even if the True King of Yan came, he would not dare to go directly to kill him.

When Luo Yuan's clone was still at the Realm Lord level, he only encountered a few dozen alien kings in his last battle, and was eventually surrounded and killed by ten Venerables. He had no choice but to self-destruct. This time, he can't be as reckless as before.

"Xiao Ba, when probing for alien forces, focus on those independent legions, especially those that are far from other legions and have no human legions nearby," Luo Yuan ordered.

"Yes, Master, Little Ba is detecting!"

A few days later, Xiao Ba alerted him to the discovery of a lone, independent legion belonging to the Mechanical Race. The legion consisted of three Kings, sixteen Marquises, one hundred Immortal Army Lords, and ten million Peak World Lords. This was good news for Luo Yuan. He immediately concealed himself, teleported out of the spaceship, and then put the spaceship away. Using spatial skills, he merged into the void and approached the three Kings of the Mechanical Race legion. He planned to eliminate their high-end combat power first and then wipe out the remaining soldiers.

This mechanical race is different from other races. Their bodies are made of various metal materials, so they look like robots. Their essence is still intelligence, but they can be regarded as intelligent life, so they can also be classified as souls. However, after they achieve immortality, they are still divine bodies, just in the form of mechanical divine bodies.

This mechanical legion built a mobile steel castle here. The three king-level commanders each lived in the three highest places in the castle. Luo Yuan went directly to one of the king-level residences, and then he saw a mechanical man made entirely of steel closing his eyes to comprehend the laws in a high-tech electronic room. Gold and spatial law runes flowed on his body, making him look very mysterious.

As Luo Yuan approached, this powerful mechanical race expert seemed to sense spatial fluctuations. He suddenly opened his eyes and saw a black dagger attacking him. The fluctuations emanating from the dagger made him feel the aura of death.

The powerful King-level expert dodged the dagger attack with a flash, which surprised Luo Yuan. He had just randomly chosen an opponent who could teleport, his luck was too good. However, Luo Yuan could also teleport. He directly enhanced the spatial teleportation skill on the Kaso dagger, and teleported along with the King-level expert of the mechanical race.

As if in a chase, the figure of this mechanical race king-level expert and Luo Yuan's dagger appeared and disappeared at different times, which made Luo Yuan feel a little impatient. He directly activated the spatial seal, freezing the space of this room. The mechanical race king-level expert's movements obviously slowed down, and finally Luo Yuan's Kaso dagger pierced through his head, shattering his divine body in an instant.

This mechanical race king-level immortal powerhouse perished. Then Luo Yuan went on to kill two other king-level immortals. Those two couldn't teleport and their understanding of spatial laws was also quite average, so they were easily killed. After killing the three commanders of the mechanical race legion, Luo Yuan then launched a one-sided slaughter. He didn't even need to use the Kaso dagger on those world lord-level mechanical race soldiers; Luo Yuan directly used his soul secret technique to annihilate their souls.

Luo Yuan silently annihilated a mechanical race legion. The corpses of this legion were made of valuable metal materials, which could be sold. All the legion's property was confiscated by Luo Yuan, including dozens of F-class mechanical race spaceships.

Chapter 174 The Chaos King

After slaughtering a high-level mechanical race legion, Luo Yuan embarked on another journey, specifically targeting lone alien race legions and annihilating them all with swift and decisive action. Since purchasing the Kaso weapon, killing King-level Immortals has become much easier for him, unlike before when he would make a huge fuss and then flee, leaving the alien races seething with hatred.

Those high-ranking members of the alien races discovered that their King-level legions had mysteriously disappeared one by one, without even a trace of the culprit. They also had no idea about the specific details of Luo Yuan's immortal avatar, because everyone who knew about it had been killed. Even when they activated the surveillance system, they only saw a golden light.

Luo Yuan's actions earned his immortal clone, which he found amusing, a title he didn't understand. He didn't know which alien race gave it to him, but it just spread like that. Now, the alien legions on the Sacrifice Flame Continent have all strengthened their defenses and vigilance, fearing that the Golden Demon King might suddenly appear and slaughter them.

"These alien legions are quite clever. They know I like to slaughter isolated legions, so they've all gathered together to form temporary alliances. This is a bit tricky. If I kill one legion, it'll be like stirring up a hornet's nest. It might even arouse suspicion from those high-ranking Venerables."

Luo Yuan's immortal clone sipped fruit wine in the spaceship and sighed inwardly. After much deliberation, he decided to temporarily stop and go check out the sacrificial tower in the Sacrificial Flame Continent.

The Sacrifice Flame Continent was originally a supercontinent with an incomparably brilliant civilization and countless powerful native humans. However, because the four most powerful races in the universe chose to open up a battlefield here, they did not obtain the consent of the natives and directly dispatched high-end combat forces to clear the area.

To ensure the continuation of their race, the high-ranking officials on the continent built hundreds of heritage towers, dividing most of their treasures into one hundred portions and placing them in the towers in preparation for their evacuation.

However, they underestimated the efficiency of the four top races. Before most of them could evacuate, the top-level combat power that was clearing the area arrived. In an instant, the natives of this supercontinent suffered. Countless people were instantly annihilated and died, and even the cosmic venerables above were killed.

As Luo Yuan looked at the data, he felt the power of the races, especially the cruel rule of the universe where the strong prey on the weak. The four top races slaughtered an entire race and destroyed a brilliant civilization just to open up a battlefield. This made Luo Yuan even more determined to become stronger. Only in this way could he break free from the shackles of fate and completely control his own life.

After thinking it over, Luo Yuan flipped his hand, revealing several triangular, crystalline stones covered with densely packed mysterious runes. These were the key tokens for the sacrificial towers, which he had snatched from the alien kings. However, opening a sacrificial tower required the simultaneous insertion of six corresponding tokens, and the ones in his hand corresponded to different sacrificial towers.

Each altar contains astonishing wealth, but its defensive capabilities are also remarkable. It can withstand physical attacks from cosmic sovereigns, but it cannot resist soul attacks, which is why countless natives within it have perished.

If Luo Yuan wanted to go to the sacrificial tower, he had to find another token or cooperate with someone who had a token. He directly posted information on the virtual universe Hongmeng system platform, looking for people from the human faction who also had the same token to challenge the sacrificial tower.

He soon received a message from someone codenamed Blood Orchid, providing a virtual address for a meeting in the universe.

……

In a private room of a restaurant in Hongmeng City, in the virtual universe.

When the unremarkable Luo Yuan immortal clone arrived here, he found that a person dressed entirely in a red robe was already sitting there.

The man in the red robe stood up and said, "So you are the 'Greedy One'?"

A slightly hoarse, mature female voice came from behind him. Luo Yuan nodded. "The Greedy One" was a nickname he had casually given himself on the Hongmeng platform. He just hadn't expected that the person who came to make contact would be a woman.

The man in the red robe used the pre-arranged code to communicate with Luo Yuan, and then they began to chat.

"Hello, I am a King-level Immortal, titled Blood Orchid King. And you?" The red-robed man's cold, beautiful eyes scrutinized Luo Yuan.

Luo Yuan smiled upon hearing this. This was to see if he was qualified to cooperate with him. The bodies in the virtual universe were only at the level of warrior generals, but the aura and soul energy emanating from the strong were completely different, though not as clearly distinguishable.

"Hello, I am also a King-level Immortal. As for my title, you can call me Chaos King." Luo Yuan said with a smile. The true identity of this title is currently only known to the Chaos City Lord, Venerable Guiyi, and Venerable Peilan. He is not afraid that the Blood Orchid King will find out his true identity.

When the woman with the title of Blood Orchid King heard Luo Yuan say that she was also a titled Immortal King, a smile appeared in her eyes, and her attitude was much better than before. However, when she heard the title "Chaos King," she raised an eyebrow and carefully examined the seemingly ordinary Luo Yuan clone. She wondered why this seemingly low-key person had chosen such an arrogant title, and she felt that she had seen this title somewhere before.

Blood Orchid King didn't think much of it and instead chatted with Luo Yuan about the cooperation. It turned out that Luo Yuan had a Sacrifice Tower Token with the code name 9, and Blood Orchid King also had one. She had also found the owners of the other four tokens, and only Luo Yuan's token was missing. The two agreed on a meeting time and place on the Sacrifice Flame Continent and then hurriedly logged off.

A month later, Luo Yuan arrived at the meeting point as promised. This place was a public area on the Sacrifice Flame Continent, a place where various races traded, and a Universe Venerable was stationed here to guard it.

Luo Yuan never expected that there was such a place on the Sacrifice Flame Continent. You should know that the four top clans and their vassal races usually fight each other to the death when they meet, but here they can trade peacefully.

Luo Yuan entered a luxuriously decorated bar. The staff at the entrance were two orcs with cat ears and tails. As soon as he entered the bar, he heard noisy conversations and loud music. There were people of various races inside, but humans were the majority. The bartender was actually a Zerg queen whose body was as white as jade.

The Zerg Queen skillfully mixed drinks with her forelimbs, radiating an aura of an Immortal Lord. Most of the creatures in the bar were at this level, with several also holding the title of Marquis Immortal. The rabbit-eared orc dancing on stage was also at the Immortal Lord level. All of this broadened Luo Yuan's horizons. Were Immortals treated so poorly here?
