Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

If it's a test, then there's a lot of room for maneuver.

"Just right!"

Lu Yunhe slowly raised his right hand, and a profound world was constantly shrinking, as if it had shrunk back to its original point from a vast world.

"The Primordial Chaos World - The Power of Chaos!"

The original Dao evolved the world, and the world completely shrank back to a single point, evolving into the ultimate gravity, which is the strongest force in the world, equivalent to condensing the power of an entire world into a single point.

"The Dao of the Void Realm!"

Seeing the Lord of the Underworld Serpent rushing towards him, Lu Yunhe smiled and immediately used the power of illusion to attack.

"what?"

The Nether Serpent Pearl was startled and had to divert some of its energy to defend against the attack from the soul, causing its aura to weaken by three levels.

Although he also learned the information from the Lord of Blood Axe, the Lord of the Nether Serpent kept his mind in a state of darkness when attacking, in order to reduce the impact of the soul attack.

However, it was still useless. The soul attack at the Origin Dao level was based on the Dao at the Hunyuan level. The combination of the two made it ineffective, not to mention its power. Most defensive methods were also useless.

Soul attacks are incredibly effective against the beings in the Broken Tooth Mountains, given that it's their inherent weakness.

For an all-around strongman like Lu Yunhe, he can pinpoint any weakness.

If the Void Realm doesn't work, there are still a bunch of fundamental paths like Void, Destiny, and Cause and Effect waiting for you; there's bound to be one where you can find a weakness.

Specialized yet broad in knowledge, even their weaknesses are greater than others' strengths.

After suppressing the soul attack, Lu Yunhe gently extended his right hand forward, and the chaotic energy transformed into a black hand that pressed down directly on the Lord of the Underworld Serpent.

"Lord of the Underworld Serpent, please do not be agitated."

The black hand pressed down on the Lord of the Underworld Serpent, instantly suppressing all of the latter's attacks.

"Humph!"

An immense force pressed down on the Lord of the Underworld Serpent, causing him to let out a muffled groan.

At this moment, he was like a snake struggling in a giant net, but no matter what he did, he could not tear the net apart.

The next moment, the Chaos Black Hand interrupted the Lord of the Underworld Serpent's attack, pressing his ejected body back into place.

The terrifying force, even after being neutralized by the attack, was still enough to tear apart the chair beneath their feet, and even the palace.

However, when the Lord of the Underworld Serpent was pressed back into the chair, the terrifying distance suddenly vanished as if it had never existed, allowing him to sit steadily without the chair even wobbling.

"Lord of the Underworld Serpent, this position of Alliance Leader was also elected by everyone. If you have any objections, you can speak directly from your seat," Lu Yunhe said with a smile.

Of course, the world monarchs present at the moment did not pay attention to Lu Yunhe's words, and were all somewhat shocked by the actions just now.

"Lord of Chaos City!"

The Lord of the Underworld Serpent also looked at Lu Yunhe with a shocked expression, and a sense of respect arose on his face.

As the one who directly faced the attack, the Lord of the Underworld Serpent is the most qualified to speak on this matter.

That was an all-encompassing crushing defeat, covering everything from the soul to the power to the realm.

Although he didn't go all out, his opponent did too. If they went all out again, the result would probably be no different, except that the commotion would be a little bigger.

"I admire you, I admire you, I'm impressed!"

The Lord of the Underworld Serpent lowered his head instantly, showing no intention of continuing to test him. One exchange had made him fully understand the gap in power.

“I, Ming She, have never admired anyone in my life, not even the Great Emperor of Beihe, whom I have no fear of. But I truly admire the City Lord.”

The Lord of the Underworld Serpent changed his attitude and began to flatter him, completely losing his previous anger.

"The city lord's realm is probably unmatched even by a Great Emperor or a Supreme Being."

The difference in strength was secondary; what impressed him most during their exchange was the level of skill they displayed.

That kind of effortless control is something even emperors and supreme beings cannot achieve; only cultivators can possess such a level of mastery.

Indeed, this is the case. Unlike the rules of the floating islands and the blessing of the native world's power, it can only be used in the early to mid-stages of the Yellow level.

The suppression of a cultivator's realm can affect even those who have reached the late or perfect Emperor level.

Therefore, it is not an improvement brought about by strength, but a pure crushing of realm.

Before coming here, the Lord of the Underworld Serpent was prepared to die, and did not think that these people could contend with the Great Emperor of the Northern River.

However, looking at the Chaos City Lord on the main seat, the Lord of the Underworld Serpent did have a sense of confidence, a possibility.

Although the Northern River Emperor is strong, he might be able to defeat the Chaos City Lord, but he definitely cannot kill him.

If the Freedom Alliance cannot be destroyed, the plan for the Northern River Lands will be nothing but empty talk.

"Greetings, Alliance Leader!" the Lord of the Underworld Serpent said respectfully, his change in attitude so swift it was astonishing.

Even the Lord of the Underworld Serpent had spoken, so the remaining mid-stage Emperor-level World Monarchs no longer intended to test the waters. After all, they were all roughly equal in strength, so they all spoke up:

"Meet the leader!"

"Greetings, Alliance Leader!" the crowd said in unison.

……

Chapter 720 The Arrival of the Northern River Emperor

"Alliance leader!"

Lu Yunhe looked at the world monarchs in front of him. Although it was just a makeshift group, they had at least managed to set up an organization and extend their reach into the Broken Tooth Mountains.

If the Free Alliance can weather the upcoming crisis, it will be able to establish itself in the Broken Tooth Mountains and become a truly influential force.

At that time, it will be much easier to do anything in the Broken Pressure Mountains.

"As long as we unite, we will definitely be able to resist that old fellow Beihe's invasion," the Blood Axe Lord said confidently.

"Blood Axe, don't be too happy yet. The strength and power of the Northern River Emperor far surpass ours," a monarch of a dragon-headed world said in a deep voice.

The greatest strength of the Northern River Emperor lies not only in his own power, but also in the forces he can completely control.

If it were just the Great Emperor of the Northern River alone, even if all these world monarchs joined forces, they could barely hold out.

Unfortunately, the combined number of world monarchs present was less than the number of divine generals under the Northern River Emperor, not to mention the difference in strength between the two.

Every divine general is at least a mid-stage Emperor-level being, and the top-ranked divine generals are the elite among them.

Among the world monarchs present, most were only at the early stage of the Emperor level, and there were very few at the middle stage.

If it's within one's own world, it's fine; one can exert greater power. However, if they come together, this advantage disappears.

However, if they don't stick together, they will be defeated one by one, which will only make things worse.

This is truly disheartening; the power of the Northern River Emperor still weighs heavily on everyone like a mountain.

However, the hard-won victory gave everyone a glimmer of hope, preventing them from succumbing to complete despair.

When the Great Emperor of the Northern River conquered the world, many of his followers were no longer fighting for freedom, but rather for revenge.

Even if it means death, we must make the Northern River Emperor pay the price, and even try to completely thwart his plans.

As long as his subordinates suffer enough losses and heavy damage, Emperor Beihe's plans will fall through.

Although there are many native worlds in the Broken Tooth Mountains, and the number of world monarchs is enormous, they are still finite and not as exaggerated as one might imagine.

And the number of elites among them is even smaller.

"I understand the power of the Northern River Emperor. If it were just us world monarchs, it would be meaningless no matter how many of us gathered together," the Blood Axe Lord nodded.

Even if hundreds of these world monarchs gathered together, they would probably be easily slaughtered by the divine generals under the command of the Northern River Emperor.

“However, with our leader here, and with his help, the numerical advantage of the Northern River Lands is no longer there.” The Blood Axe Lord clenched his fist.

It was because he saw a glimmer of hope that he gathered so many world monarchs to seize this opportunity to rebel.

If we miss this opportunity, it will be too difficult to unite again.

"Soul attack!"

The Lord of the Underworld Serpent spoke, his gaze fixed on Lu Yunhe. In the previous exchange, besides the unfathomable realm of their cultivation, the most terrifying thing was the soul attack.

That kind of attack that goes straight to the source is completely impossible to defend against, and it wants to drag his soul into complete slumber in the illusion.

"Could it be that the Alliance Leader's soul attack is an area-of-effect attack?" the Lord of the Underworld Serpent couldn't help but ask.

“That’s right!” Lu Yunhe nodded.

"Won't it be weakened by the increase in the number of enemies?" the Lord of the Underworld Serpent pressed.

"No!" Lu Yunhe shook his head.

"Then, can you distinguish between friend and foe?" The Lord of the Underworld Serpent became excited.

"Of course!"

Lu Yunhe said confidently that as a cultivator, what he was most proud of was his control over power, so naturally he would not lack the ability to distinguish between friend and foe, which was a basic skill.

"Good good."

The Lord of the Underworld Serpent was very excited: "With the Alliance Leader here, we are not afraid even if the Northern River Emperor's subordinates come out in full force."

The Lord of the Underworld Serpent and the Lord of the Blood Axe exchanged a glance. The sliver of hope they had held suddenly became clear and tangible, almost within reach.

Even if this ability were weaker, the Lord of the Underworld Serpent would have begged the other party to come over.

Fortunately, the alliance leader was not displeased with his actions, otherwise the Lord of the Underworld Serpent would have regretted it to death.

"Blood Axe, is your information true?"

Seeing the Lord of the Underworld's reaction, the other world rulers also realized what was happening.

When the Blood Axe Lord invited them, he also revealed some information about the Chaos City Lord.

Although a world monarch wouldn't lie, the information was so exaggerated that they still harbored some disbelief.

However, judging from the situation of the Lord of the Underworld Serpent, what the Lord of the Blood Axe said should be true.

"Alliance Leader, may we experience it again?" the Blood Axe Lord asked.

"can!"
