Chapter 149 Planning
"My mission is complete. I have no further reason to exist. I should now follow my master into eternal rest."
'
A buzzing sound of electricity rang out, and the projection of the intelligent life form began to malfunction, flickering incessantly, clearly indicating that it was self-destructing.
"Remember my name, I am Lancelot."
After saying that, the intelligent life form completely self-destructed.
At the same time, the remains of the Star Lord, along with the throne, sank with a rumble, sealing themselves off. The entire ruin began to self-destruct, with the final core area sinking into the spatial torrent layer.
Qi Yuan sighed suddenly, activated the Divine Kingdom Transmission, and returned to his own Divine Kingdom.
Shortly after that secret realm was destroyed, the Lord of Hengxian and several other cosmic lords arrived.
Looking at this devastated landscape, several cosmic lords lamented, "Alas, what a pity, we arrived too late!"
The divine power of the Lord of Balance and Strings covered this area, initiating a time reversal, with scenes playing in reverse.
From the self-destruction of intelligent life, to Qi Yuan's annihilation of Venerable Tianyang and others, to Qi Yuan obtaining the Star Lord's treasure, to the battle before they entered the core area of the temple—
Scene after scene unfolded before my eyes.
"Damn Venerable Tianyang and Venerable Chanlie! They knew there was a treasure of the Star Lord here, but they didn't tell their clans, hoping to keep it all for themselves. Now look what happened! Not only did they perish, but they also lost their own treasures instead of the Star Lord's treasure! They deserve to be punished!" a cosmic lord complained indignantly.
"Where did this Lord of Kunpeng come from? I've never seen him before, or even heard of him before?"
"No matter what, we must issue a warrant for his arrest and let him know the consequences of offending our machine race!"
"Besides, we wiped out the Starlight Clan, and even a powerful universe lord like the Starlight Lord is dead. We absolutely cannot leave such a menace behind."
"That's right, he still dares to dream of rebuilding the Star Clan; he's practically courting death!"
All the lords of the universe made a pronouncement: as long as the Lord of Kunpeng dares to show his face in the universe, he must be hunted down and killed, partly to establish authority and partly to nip the danger in the bud.
After watching the entire process, the Lord of Hengxian began to retrieve people from the River of Time and resurrect Venerable Tianyang and the others.
"Certainly!"
The images of Venerable Tianyang, Venerable Chanlie, and King Chanshuo were frozen in time. The divine power of Lord Hengxian probed into them, grabbed them, and pulled them out of the river of time step by step.
"Come back!"
The pressure of reviving the three Venerable Tianyang directly impacted Lord Hengxian.
Especially Venerable Tianyang, who is the most powerful cosmic overlord, and carries many supreme treasures. Even if he doesn't bring these treasures back from the river of time, the pressure brought by the distortion of cosmic spacetime is still extremely strong.
Fortunately, the Lord of the Strings possessed an extremely large divine body, which allowed him to persevere.
Even so, his divine body has become noticeably weaker, and it is unknown how many treasures it will take or how many years it will take to fully recover.
If a universe lord with a smaller divine body were chosen, he would be unable to revive Venerable Tianyang, and might even perish himself.
Among the Machine Race, besides the Lord of the Strings, the only one capable of resurrecting a top-tier cosmic overlord like Venerable Tianyang is the Machine Race's Father God, the strongest being in the universe.
"Ah ...
Venerable Tianyang, Venerable Chanlie, and King Chanshuo felt the backlash from the universe and couldn't help but let out a scream.
When they regained consciousness, they realized they had been resurrected.
Upon seeing the Lord of Hengxian and other cosmic rulers, they immediately and respectfully knelt down.
"Remember this, you have already died once. Pay off your debt for this resurrection as soon as possible," a cosmic lord reprimanded with displeasure.
The three dared not say more, nodding silently in agreement and accepting their lesson.
Looking at their clean clothes, they felt like crying. Not only were their equipment and treasures gone, but they also owed their tribe a huge debt.
Especially Venerable Tianyang felt extremely distressed when he thought of the few high-grade treasures he possessed.
Originally, his collection of treasures made him one of the wealthiest among the universe's venerable beings, but now he has fallen directly from "richest man" to "most indebted man," and the sense of loss he felt is unimaginable.
When the Lord of Hengxian and other mechanical race universe lords descended upon the Netherworld Sea in a grand manner, it quickly alarmed the universe venerables of the other three major races stationed on the outer battlefield.
They dared not delay and immediately reported the matter to their tribe.
Almost simultaneously, the cosmic lords of the three peak races also descended upon this place.
"Lord of Hengxian, have you found the treasure of the Lord of Starlight?" the three cosmic lords asked one after another.
Many of the cosmic lords present were people who had personally participated in the battle to annihilate the Lord of Starlight. They all knew about the Lord of Starlight's supreme treasure armor.
"Hmph, can't you see for yourselves?" a mechanical cosmic lord said irritably.
Immediately, the Lord of the Universe used a time-reversal technique to examine what had happened.
"Where did this alien beast cosmic lord come from? I never expected that he would steal the supreme treasure armor of the Star Lord!" said the demon lord Changjiu angrily.
The other universe lords also shook their heads, indicating that they had never seen this universe lord before.
"No matter who it is, daring to steal a treasure from our four supreme races, it should prepare for its demise. We must never allow the Star Clan to reappear in the universe, otherwise, what will become of our reputation!" Lord Hengxian proposed. "I suggest that our four supreme races jointly issue a kill order; we cannot allow it to continue living!"
"Indeed, the Lord of Starlight was once so powerful, but he offended our four top races. Not only did he perish, but his race was also completely destroyed. If we allow this Lord of Kunpeng to rebuild the Starlight race, then our deterrent power against other forces will weaken, and then any Tom, Dick, or Harry will dare to bare their teeth!" said the Zerg's Universe Lord.
"We humans also agree," the Lord of the Ice Peaks said succinctly and forcefully.
Only the Lord of Youhou's eyes flickered for a moment. He saw the figure of the Lord of Kunpeng and felt that it was very similar to Qi Yuan's Tu Yu body. Then he felt that he was thinking too much. How could Qi Yuan break through to the Lord of the Universe so quickly and be stronger than him!
This is simply not possible.
He guessed that the Lord of Kunpeng was a special life form of the same race as Qi Yuan's Tu Yu body.
Is it really possible that such powerful and unique life forms could have a race? Probably not, right?
However, thinking about this, he decided to go and ask Qi Yuan about the situation.
At this moment, Qi Yuan returned to the divine kingdom, and the two pairs of Wu-killing wings vibrated wildly.
Qi Yuan released control, and the two pairs of wings soared into the air, emitting a "buzzing" sound. Then they combined together, and the broken parts between the secret patterns merged into one.
He put the Wu-Slaying Wings on his body again. At this time, the Wu-Slaying Wings had changed from two ordinary treasures into a top-level wing treasure.
Above the sea of blood, divine power burned once more, and he once again used the secret technique "Analysis of All Things," a gift bestowed upon him by the universe.
He had already thoroughly understood the secret patterns on the original pair of wings, so understanding the second pair of wings was naturally much easier.
The "analysis light" in his eyes fell on the new Wu-killing wings. The secret patterns on the Wu-killing wings magnified in his eyes, constantly evolving from the most basic level, constantly disassembling and combining, analyzing in detail the formation process of the secret patterns on them.
Relying on the vastness of the Blood Sea, he repeatedly activated his strongest secret technique, "Analysis of All Things," continuously comprehending the secret runes within it.
Before long, he directly comprehended all the secret patterns of the Wu Killing Wings and was able to fully unleash the effects of the new Wu Killing Wings.
However, as a price, the Nether Sea clone shrank considerably, and the once-vast Blood Sea now appeared much smaller, and it was unknown how many years it would take to recover.
However, the price was worth it. The new Wu Yuyi was extremely powerful, able to control a spacetime domain with a diameter of more than one light-year, similar to the effect of a universe master controlling spacetime.
When he goes out again, he will be the true master of the universe. No one will doubt him. After all, he has not only reached the level of a master of the universe in terms of combat power, but he has also mastered the symbolic control of space and time. What else could he be but a master of the universe?
At this moment, Qi Yuan suddenly received an urgent communication from the Lord of Youhou and hurriedly entered the virtual universe to meet with him.
"Junior Brother, do you know the Lord of Kunpeng?" Lord Youhou asked immediately upon meeting. "Did your Tu Yu form enter the extraterrestrial battlefield? I encountered a Universe Lord of the same race as your Tu Yu form!"
Qi Yuan was taken aback, then realized that he was talking about himself.
However, when retracing time, one can only see the scene at that time, but cannot feel the life force; otherwise, Lord Youhou should have recognized him long ago.
Qi Yuan did not deny it, and briefly recounted the process of obtaining the Star Lord's inheritance.
He only said that he had a fortuitous encounter, which allowed him to unleash the power of a universe master at the level of a universe venerable. Lord Youhou did not ask for more specific information. Everyone has their own secrets, and it would be presumptuous to ask too many questions.
"Good, good! Now our sect has three universe lords! Hahaha—" Lord Youhou said happily.
At that moment, his eyes darted around, and he asked, "Junior brother, dare to pull off a big heist?"
Qi Yuan quickly asked him what he was going to do.
"Hehe, the Lord of Hengxian weakened himself in order to revive Venerable Tianyang. If you show yourself and lure him to the Primordial Star, then our three peak clans can join forces to besiege him and maybe we can capture him!" Lord Youhou's eyes flashed with a sharp light.
Qi Yuan listened carefully to Lord Youhou's plan and couldn't help but nod in approval. It was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Generally speaking, it is difficult for a universe master like the Lord of the Strings to perish in the original universe, since he has the mechanical race as his backing, and reinforcements will arrive as soon as he delays them for a while.
Moreover, the three top races wouldn't go to besiege and kill him, otherwise it would be a life-or-death struggle with the Machine Race, which would trigger a major inter-race war.
No one can afford such a price.
But who told the Lord of Hengxian to be so arrogant, actually taking the initiative to revive a top cosmic overlord like Venerable Tianyang, thus leaving himself in this extremely weak state?
Given the opportunity to kick someone when they're down, the other three top clans would never let it pass.
"Alright, I'll be right there!" Qi Yuan said readily. "With the Winged Treasure on my person and the Supreme Treasure Palace, escaping should be relatively easy."
He activated the divine kingdom teleportation again and appeared on the first battlefield.
The moment the Lord of Kunpeng appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of all the universe lords present.
Swish!
Qi Yuan's wings flapped, tearing through space and entering the dark universe, rapidly fleeing towards the Primordial Star.
"The Lord of Kunpeng is over there, hurry and chase after him!"
All the lords of the universe present shouted and chased after him.
Boom!
Qi Yuan's divine power ignited, and the secret runes of the Wu-Slaying Wings were activated, causing a vast expanse of golden light to spread out like a long river, covering an area with a diameter of one light-year.
Any life that enters this domain is severely suppressed.
The various universe lords used their domain treasures to restrict his flight speed, but Qi Yuan's top treasure, the "Celestial Origin Wheel," also emitted a seven-colored halo. When combined with the spacetime control of Shi Wu Yu Yi, it was even more powerful than the domains of the other universe lords.
The endless space was shattered into pieces, and streaks of light chased each other rapidly through the universe.
In the dark universe, where the speed of light is no longer a constraint, they all reached their maximum speeds.
Not long after, Qi Yuan emerged from the dark universe and arrived near the Primal Star, plunging headlong into a passage leading to the Primal Star.
Immediately afterward, the body shifted, placing the human clone in the open and transferring the precious equipment over, while Tu Yu's true body remained hidden.
After transforming several more original stars, they finally found a place to hide.
Those cosmic lords followed Qi Yuan into the Primordial Star almost immediately after him.
However, the original star had one passage after another, and they quickly lost track of it. They had to split up to search, turning the entire original star into a mess. The cosmic venerables were terrified and hid in fear.
At this moment, the Lord of Youhou quietly transmitted his voice to the Lord of Bingfeng: "Uncle-Master, the Lord of Hengxian's aura is much weaker than usual. It must be due to the resurrection of Venerable Tianyang. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
The Lord of Ice Peaks' eyes lit up, and he secretly discussed the matter with the Lord of Works Peng who was standing beside him.
Peng Gong nodded, and then contacted Chang, the leader of the demon race, and Minglian, the leader of the insect race.
The four dominant clans have deep-seated hatred for each other, and if there is an opportunity to weaken one of them, the other three will tacitly join forces.
This Lord of the Strings is a fifth-order universe lord within the Machine Race, second only to the Machine Race's Father God. In addition, his divine body is exceptionally large, making him virtually impossible to kill.
So of course they wouldn't let such an opportunity slip by.
At the same time, they also contacted the cosmic lords and the strongest beings in the universe within their respective races, and quickly reached a consensus.
The strongest warriors from the three major races stationed inside were dispatched to block the mechanical race's reinforcements.
