Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

boom!

Fusion, done!

From then on, the world within the divine tree's avatar completely disappeared, and the divine kingdom was established!

In the years to come, the Divine Kingdom will continue to devour void energy and spatial fragments to grow, but this process will be incredibly long.

Whoosh!

Lu Yunhe flashed into the divine kingdom and instantly felt the immense power of the divine kingdom.

With the blessing of divine power, one's strength can increase almost tenfold.

"I am the Divine Tree!"

"I am not the divine tree!"

Having felt the blessing of the divine power, Lu Yunhe calmed his mind and waved his hand to remove the blessing.

Before long, even without the blessing of the divine kingdom, he will be able to reach his current strength.

"So it's only my main body that gets to enjoy the benefits!" The divine tree clone sighed inwardly as it looked at the divine kingdom, which was only a few thousand kilometers in diameter.

The inner world is the foundation of the divine kingdom, and the divine kingdom also influences the potential of the gods. If one is slow at one step, one will be slow at every step, and if the foundation is much worse, the difference will be huge from the start.

"It's alright, Divine Tree. Don't underestimate your small divine kingdom; you move fast. Of all your clones, you are currently the strongest, far ahead of all others."

Lu Yunhe comforted him, saying that he didn't actually have high demands for the inner world or the divine kingdom.

After all, you can still have a brand new clone later on. If you really encounter a situation where you're stuck at the limit, you can just focus on developing a new clone.

The rich get rich first, then help the poor get rich later, and the poor get rich later to make up for the deficiencies.

……

Ninth Battlefield - Outer Limits of the Suspended Domain!

Inside a silently flying meteorite, a dazzling light shone, and then a passage appeared. Lu Yunhe, wearing the Six Paths Robe, used the divine kingdom's teleportation to return to the extraterrestrial battlefield, traversing billions of light-years once again.

"The teleportation from the Divine Kingdom is really fast!"

Lu Yunhe sighed. With the teleportation of the divine kingdom, cosmic battlefields between races had become possible.

Otherwise, even with the convenient space for travel like the Dark Universe, a real battle would still drag on for an incredibly long time.

"What comes next!"

Lu Yunhe examined the star map, searching for a suitable place for his next training session.

The Suspended Domain is mainly a battle between Immortal Army Lords. The strongest among them are only Marquis Immortals, not even Kings, so it is no longer suitable for his next training.

Even without using the Divine Tree mode, Lu Yunhe could only unleash the power of a Marquis-level Immortal.

However, that was due to the limitations of his own basic strength. His understanding of the laws and combat experience had already reached the limit of the Marquis level. If he wanted to go further, he had to draw inspiration from the King level of the Immortal realm.

The Ninth Battlefield also has many dangerous areas, such as the Cosmic Magnetic Storm Zone and the Annihilation Vortex, which produce a lot of precious resources, enough to attract even the King-level Immortals.

"Dark Continent!"

Lu Yunhe chose a region—the Dark Continent, a supercontinent with a diameter of more than two light-years, where many powerful kings from the Ninth Battlefield gathered.

"That's it!"

After making his selection, Lu Yunhe took out a black spaceship of the King-level and accelerated directly into the dark universe.

……

"The Dark Continent lies ahead!"

Lu Yunhe gazed into the distance at the supercontinent that almost filled his entire field of vision.

With a maximum diameter exceeding two light-years, even light would take more than two years to travel across this road, and that's in a straight line. If one wanted to explore it, the time would be even more exaggerated.

"Master, there is an alien squad 2.9 million kilometers away, consisting of five immortal gods and twenty world lord warriors. The leader of the immortals is a marquis-level expert."

"2.7 million kilometers away, there is an alien army, consisting of three peak-level Immortal Army Lords and ten thousand soldiers..."

As soon as they approached the Dark Continent, Delacion detected a steady stream of teams, each of which possessed overall strength comparable to that of a Marquis or Immortal.

There's no way around it; the entire Dark Continent is too dangerous. There are over a thousand powerful beings at the King-level Immortal realm, not to mention the Marquis-level Immortals below them.

Throughout the entire continent, nearly one-third of the immortal gods are enfeoffed as marquises.

At the same time, because the proportion of immortals who have been granted the title of Marquis is high, there will definitely be many teams with such titles. This forces other immortal teams that have not yet been granted the title to immediately join forces with other allies. They must at least ensure that there are Marquis-level immortals in their teams, or that they have combat power comparable to Marquis-level immortals, in order to increase their chances of survival.

After all, no one likes to be slaughtered. Everyone comes here to train. Even if it is dangerous, they should at least be able to survive a near-death experience, not face certain death.

"That's enough, Delacion. With my current strength, there's no need to probe these alien races anymore."

Lu Yunhe immediately had Delacion turn off the detection information and began to investigate the origins of the Dark Continent.

In the beginning, this continent was not called the Dark Continent. Moreover, it was inhabited by the strongest alien race in this secret realm.

Unfortunately, the four top races joined forces to open up the extraterritorial battlefield, and this ordinary race was completely wiped out without any ability to resist. All beings above the Immortal level were wiped out.

Because that tribe preferred to live underground, they built countless underground palaces or labyrinths throughout the continent.

After that cleanup, the continent underwent a strange change. All the underground layers became undetectable, and in some areas, even teleportation became impossible.

Because the detectors were blocked, everyone who entered the underground level to explore became "blind," each one like a hunter with a weapon but unable to catch any trace of their prey.

That's why this continent is called the Dark Continent; anyone who tries to truly delve into its core will be blinded.

"Detector unavailable!"

Upon seeing this information, Lu Yunhe nodded. The detector was really overkill for the extraterritorial battlefield and should have been removed long ago.

Although the Dark Continent is dangerous, many immortal gods are still willing to gather here, naturally because of the treasures hidden within.

At that time, the beings who cleaned up the secret realm were basically high-ranking cosmic lords or even cosmic overlords. After killing the cosmic venerables in the secret realm, these beings, perhaps out of contempt or perhaps on purpose, left all the wealth of this ordinary race in the secret realm.

It should be noted that although this is just an ordinary race, it has more than a dozen Universe Venerables. The terrifying wealth that this race has accumulated over countless years is an astronomical figure even for Universe Venerables, let alone for immortals like them.

Even finding just a little bit of remaining wealth would be enough for the immortal kings to make a fortune.

According to information from the virtual universe, just a thousand epochs ago, someone "dug out" a great treasure from the Dark Continent, causing a bloody storm in which even an immortal king perished.

This also shows that the top beings of the major clans have gone to great lengths to allow these kings to gain experience.

Compared to the Marquis-level Immortals who can at least kill Immortal Army Lords, the King-level Immortals suffer considerably, especially the initial King-level ones. Killing an Immortal Army Lord is a trivial matter, while killing a Marquis-level Immortal is disproportionately costly, leaving them stuck in a limbo.

Lu Yunhe even suspected that the fact that the major extraterrestrial battlefields had been opened up for so many years and still had a continuous stream of resources being mined, instead of being emptied out by the endless stream of immortal gods, was probably because the high-ranking members of the major clans had secretly stuffed some treasures into them in order to maintain the popularity of the king-level immortals.

"Underground cave, heavy treasure..."

Lu Yunhe stroked his chin. Although he didn't care much about resources, he would be interested if there were a lot of them.

call out!

Lu Yunhe's black spaceship roamed recklessly over the Dark Continent.

Many alien races either detected or saw the black spaceship, but because they could not ascertain the specific strength of the entity inside, none of them dared to make a move easily, fearing that they had encountered someone pretending to be weak to lure them in.

No, such arrogant behavior doesn't count as pretending to be stupid at all.

……

In a valley tens of millions of kilometers away from Lu Yunhe's spaceship, a four-legged alien creature, over five meters tall, with hands like scimitars, was angrily cursing:

"Damn demon race, seeing they can't win, they actually resort to demonic possession." The alien race's twin swords clashed, instantly carving a clear crack in the ground.

"Unfortunately, my clan is too far away, and not many of my kind have chosen to come to this extraterritorial battlefield."

The four-legged alien said regretfully that only after being far away from their own kind could they truly appreciate the sense of security that comes from having a strong and supportive community.

The alien race is called "Sharp Kings," and they come from the powerful "Blade Clan" from a distant part of the universe.

This race is not a vassal of the major top races, but an independent race. They found that the extraterrestrial battlefield was effective in training them, so they joined in.

When the Blade Clan joined the extraterrestrial battlefield, after consulting with several major races, they chose to participate in the war through the Zerg camp, and were therefore assigned to the Zerg side.

When the Sharp Edge King reached the Immortal Kinghood, he also came to the outer battlefield for training under the arrangement of his clan.

Some time ago, when he wanted to kill a Marquis Immortal of the Demon Clan, the other party summoned a King-level expert of the Demon Clan. Sharp Edge King had no choice but to give up.

Moreover, being on a battlefield outside the region, in an unfamiliar place, even if Sharp King wanted to get revenge, he had no way to do so.

As for race, he looked down on the insect queens who were at the realm lord level, and was looked down upon by the queens who were at the immortal level.

Just then, Sharp King spotted a spaceship flying overhead and was furious: "So arrogant, they're practically asking for death."

In an instant, a black blade of energy, powerful enough to shatter space, slashed out from the valley and crashed directly into the spaceship.

boom……

Chapter 226 Battle Against the King

"How brave!"

The moment the blade's edge appeared, Lu Yunhe reacted, instantly rushing out of the spaceship and blocking it with his sword.

"He's also a king!"

The Sharp King at the bottom of the valley looked at the blocked attack. His attack had also reached the King level, so the fact that it was blocked so easily meant that it was of the same level. He was speechless for a moment.

The entire Dark Continent is so vast that it's actually quite difficult to encounter a powerhouse at the King level; the main challenge is reaching the Marquis level or Immortal.

But unexpectedly, Sharp King made a mistake and provoked an enemy of the King level.

Lu Yunhe coldly stared at the alien race below, his whole body radiating a chilling killing intent.

Seeing this, Sharp King was at a loss for words. Could it be that it was a misunderstanding?

However, he was not defeated in battle, and as a titled king, he was still quite confident.

That's right. In fact, there are quite a few powerful individuals who have been granted the title of King who have not received the corresponding title. Those who have been granted the title of King are basically at the advanced level or above.

"Wait, a new face, and a human at that!"

Sharp-Edged King looked at Lu Yunhe and realized that he did not resemble the powerful king he had imagined.

There aren't many king-level powerhouses on the entire Dark Continent, so even though they may not have met each other, they would still have some understanding of each other.

"He looks like a newly arrived King-level Immortal on the Dark Continent, otherwise he wouldn't be so arrogant."
