Swallowing the Stars, I am the Lord of the Galaxy

Page 255

"It seems they're determined to fight to the death."

The Beast King's body suddenly vanished from its spot, reappearing above the Ark of Eternity. Its tens of thousands of tentacles intertwined, transforming into a massive, dark red spear that stretched across the starry sky. Spacetime was distorted to its extreme at the spearhead, and it thrust downwards with a destructive force!

"court death!"

A cold light flashed in Xingchen's eyes.

"I didn't want to kill you, but you asked for it!"

"The Ark of Eternity, Suppress!"

With a command, the Eternal Ark suddenly unleashed a terrifying aura that suppressed eternity.

"Boom!"

The Eternal Ark descended, crashing heavily onto the Illusionary Light Beast King. The dark red giant spear shattered instantly, and the Beast King let out a shrill scream. Its massive body was forced to kneel on the lake's surface, unable to move.

"Moon...Silence!"

Stars stood tall in the sky, and the phantom of a crescent moon bloomed. The moment he swung his sword, the entire Illusionary Lake was plunged into absolute darkness.

In an instant, tens of thousands of sword lights bloomed simultaneously!

Each blade of light contained the full power of "Moon Shattering Frost," drawing a graceful arc in the darkness.

These blades slashed at the Beast King from different angles, eventually converging into a single point within its body.

"Om-"

Amidst a strange buzzing sound, all the sword lights erupted simultaneously.

The body of the Phantom Beast King was like a frozen photograph, first appearing with countless fine cracks, and then...

"boom!"

It was completely pulverized into the most basic energy particles. Even its origin was utterly annihilated by this single strike, with no possibility of resurrection.

The entire Illusion Lake fell into a deathly silence. The surviving Illusion Beasts had long since been frightened and burrowed into the depths of the lake, not daring to make a sound.

Stardust sheathed his sword, and the Eternal Ark returned to its spaceship form. He turned to the dumbfounded Coty and said calmly, "Let's go."

Inside the Ark of Eternity.

Koti was still a little dazed, staring blankly in the direction of the Lake of Illusion.

That was a beast comparable to the strongest being in the universe, and it was just slain by the teacher with a single strike?

"The teacher's skill..."

Coty swallowed hard, his mind reeling.

"It's terrifying!"

"Why are you dazed?"

The sound of the stars pulled him back to reality.

"Hurry up and get on."

"Ah? Oh!"

Coty then seemed to snap out of his daze and hurriedly flew into the Ark of Eternity. Only after the hatch closed and the Ark of Eternity transformed into a streak of light and flew away from the area did he truly breathe a sigh of relief.

Once in the safe void outside, Koti plopped down in a chair, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. He'd truly escaped death; if his teacher hadn't arrived in time, he would have thought he was done for.

"Go ahead."

Starfall put away the Eternal Ark, turned to look at Coty, and his expression was serious.

"How could a universe lord like you end up in a dangerous place like Illusion Lake? Are you out of your mind?"

Koti scratched his head and gave a silly grin: "Um... teacher, I didn't mean to..."

"Don't stammer."

The stars chuckled softly.

"You're still keeping me in suspense, what's going on?"

Koti smiled, then suddenly pulled something out of his pocket mysteriously: "Teacher, look!"

A miniature lake floated in his palm, crystal clear and radiating a dreamlike seven-colored light.

The lake appears calm, yet it gives one a sense of unfathomable depth, as if it contains boundless power.

"This is……"

Xingchen's pupils contracted slightly.

"The most powerful treasure?!"

"Hehe, that's right!"

Koti grinned smugly.

"While exploring the outer perimeter of Illusion Lake, I suddenly sensed a peculiar fluctuation. Following the fluctuation, I discovered that this treasure was hidden in a natural formation deep within the heart of the lake."

Xingchen took the miniature lake and examined it carefully. Ripples appeared on the surface of the lake from time to time, and each ripple contained complete fluctuations of laws, with even faint chaotic energy flowing within it.

"Good guy..."

Xingchen couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"No wonder you dared to risk entering the Lake of Illusion. This treasure is indeed worth the risk."

Koti scratched his head sheepishly: "I originally planned to take it quietly and leave, but who knew that as soon as I broke the formation, I alerted that Illusionary Light Beast King..."

"You..."

Xingchen shook his head helplessly and handed the treasure back to Coty.

"But you are indeed quite lucky to have encountered such a treasure of this level."

Koti took the treasure and played with it with it with great delight: "Teacher, what do you think should be called about this precious item?"

After a moment's thought, Xingchen smiled and said, "Since it was obtained from the Illusion Lake, why not call it 'Illusion Lake'?"

"Illusory Lake..."

Koti repeated softly, his eyes growing brighter.

"Great name! We got 'Illusory Lake' from Illusory Lake, hahaha!"

Chapter 277 Preparations: Capturing the Beast of the Realm!

Xingchen was amused: "You little rascal..."

As the laughter subsided, Xingchen said seriously, "This treasure is incredibly powerful. You must refine it carefully when you get back. But remember, no matter how good a treasure is, it's just an external thing. Your own strength is the foundation."

"Disciple understands!"

Coty nodded solemnly, then asked curiously.

"Master, what technique did you use to kill that Illusionary Light Beast King just now? This disciple has never seen it before."

Xingchen smiled slightly: "That is my newly created secret technique, 'Moon Silence,' which combines the laws of spacetime with a trace of the laws of life. When you break through to the strongest in the future, you will also create your own secret technique."

Koti listened with rapt attention.

"Let's go."

Xingchen patted his disciple on the shoulder.

"Let's go back to the Primal Universe first. This adventure has been quite fruitful. Go back and refine and master this treasure. After that, your strength will be comparable to a top-tier sixth-order Universe Lord, and you will be able to rival the strongest in the Primal Universe."

Koti smiled.

This will greatly enhance his strength, which is why he took such a risk. Who can resist the temptation of the most powerful treasure?

Coty is now considering going after Yan Di again. This time, he has the most powerful treasure, so Yan Di will have no chance of escaping!

Moreover, it was already discussed last time that the Mountain Guest will not make a move this time!

I'd like to see who can come to your rescue!

Emperor Yan!

Xingchen and Coty have circled the cosmic sea once more, and this time it has been over a hundred years.

Luo Feng's cultivation in the primordial universe was also methodical. The stars' nurturing mostly served to facilitate his progress. The stars would not touch the opportunities he was entitled to. If he had any doubts or needs, the stars would help him.

Another period of time has passed in the blink of an eye.

Within a miniature universe.

The Ark of Eternity floats in the air, and the endless primal power of the miniature universe flows into it like threads.

The star stood in mid-air, pressing down with one hand, and the primal power of the entire miniature universe suddenly boiled!

"Om-"

Vast energy poured down like a celestial river, transforming into countless brilliant streams of light that converged from all directions and poured into the core of the Eternal Ark.

The runes on the surface of the Eternal Ark lit up one by one, each rune seemingly coming to life, greedily devouring the energy.

This is another attack mode of the Eternal Ark discovered by the stars over the long years – "Primal Bombardment".

The core of the Eternal Ark can store nearly infinite energy, and this energy, after being amplified and compressed by the secret runes on the hull, can be released in the form of "cannon fire," with power far exceeding the attacks of the strongest beings in the universe!

However, the charging process is not instantaneous. Although the "energy storage core" of the Eternal Ark is vast and boundless, its charging speed has an upper limit. Even with the power of the stars, it would take a very long time to fill it up.

But... once fully charged, the power of this strike is enough to allow stars to roam freely in the cosmic sea!

Note that this refers to the entire cosmic ocean.

"almost……"

The starlight burned brightly, sensing the increase in energy within the Eternal Ark.

"If we accumulate energy for a while longer, the core energy will reach a critical point! At that time..."

His gaze pierced through the endless void, as if he could see the deepest darkness, the dim land, in the most gloomy part of the Peak Realm!

That is the lair of the Beast Realm!

Even the strongest beings in the universe would be besieged by countless world beasts and ultimately annihilated if they stepped into it!
