Swallowing the Stars, I am the Lord of the Galaxy

Page 127

The Golden Fire Venerable's enormous body was incredibly agile, and the golden flames he spewed out intertwined into a net.

Each lash of his thick snake tail carried the power to shatter stars, leaving a distorted trail in the void.

"clang!"

The spearhead clashed with the scales, sparking dazzling flashes.

The Azure Nether Venerable used the momentum to retreat, his figure tracing an arc in mid-air. The Golden Fire Venerable seized the opportunity to unleash a blazing pillar of fire, but his opponent's wings fluttered slightly, narrowly missing the edge of the pillar.

The pace of their battle quickened, leaving countless afterimages in the void. The Azure Nether Venerable's spear technique grew increasingly fierce, each strike aimed directly at vital points.

Venerable Jin Huo adopted an offensive strategy, launching attacks from different angles, forcing Qing Ming to be distracted in his responses.

"boom!"

After a fierce clash, both men retreated simultaneously. Blood seeped from the tiger's mouth where the Azure Nether Venerable gripped his spear, and a bloody gash appeared around the left eye socket of the Golden Fire Venerable's head. But in an instant, their injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The battle reached a stalemate. Azure Nether Venerable had a clear speed advantage, but Golden Fire Venerable's defense was equally formidable.

The spear tip, when it struck the golden scales, would often only leave a shallow white mark. And whenever Venerable Golden Fire launched a fierce attack, Venerable Azure Netherworld was always able to dodge it in time with his agile movements.

Xingchen, watching from afar, frowned slightly. While this war of attrition was exciting, it was clearly not the outcome he desired.

"It's reached a stalemate. If it were a complete set of supreme treasures, the battle would have ended long ago. Unfortunately, I am not yet able to create supreme treasures."

The analysis of the Supreme Treasure is extremely difficult. Even though he had tried his best, the analysis of the first Supreme Treasure was only barely over 10%.

The speed is far too slow; it would probably take countless years before we can mass-produce these treasures.

boom! boom! boom!

In the void, the two figures collided repeatedly like meteors, each clash unleashing a devastating energy storm.

The Azure Netherworld Venerable wielded his thunderous spear like a dragon, the purple lightning bursting from its tip tearing open dark cracks in the space.

The spear thrust out, and a ten-thousand-foot-long thunder dragon roared as it pounced towards Venerable Golden Fire. The thunder dragon was lifelike; every scale was condensed from pure thunder laws, and its eyes pulsed with destructive purple light.

"Little tricks!"

The Golden Fire Venerable roared, his massive body suddenly spinning, and his golden snake tail swept out like a pillar of heaven.

"boom!"

Taking advantage of the momentum, Venerable Qingming retreated, his Heavenly Roc Wings gently flapping to steady himself. His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his spear suddenly split into hundreds of spear shadows.

Each spear shadow contained real thunderous power, piercing towards the vital points of Venerable Golden Fire with an indistinguishable illusion.

"Humph!"

Venerable Golden Fire neither dodged nor evaded, his golden armor radiating dazzling light. The spear shadows struck the armor, producing a dense sound like raindrops pattering on banana leaves.

"Dang-dang-dang-dang——"

Amidst the flying sparks, Venerable Golden Fire suddenly opened his blood-red maw, and a golden pillar of fire shot out!

"Roar!"

Wherever the pillar of fire passed, space itself was scorched and distorted. Venerable Qingming flapped his Heavenly Roc Wings rapidly, his figure drawing a graceful arc in the air, narrowly avoiding this fatal blow.

But Venerable Golden Fire's offensive was not over yet!

His massive body suddenly accelerated, and endless flames instantly sealed off all of Qingming Venerable's escape space!

"Three levels of burning the sky!"

Faced with this deadly attack, a ruthless glint flashed in Venerable Qingming's eyes. He no longer dodged, but instead held the Thunder Spear horizontally in front of his chest, the secret runes on the spear lighting up simultaneously!

"Get out of my way!"

"boom!"

Three pillars of fire struck simultaneously, the blinding golden light completely engulfing Venerable Qingming. But the next moment, a bolt of purple lightning suddenly pierced through the flames, and Venerable Qingming's figure shot out from within!

His blue armor was charred in many places, but the fighting spirit in his eyes burned even more fiercely.

"Back to you!"

The Thunder Spear flew from his hand, transforming into a streak of purple lightning that pierced straight for Venerable Golden Fire's brow! This spear strike was as swift as a startled bird, causing a brief pause in the space-time around the spear.

"what?!"

Venerable Golden Fire hastily parried the attack.

boom!

Both sides retreated again!

The Golden Fire Venerable's last remaining head abruptly rose, a flicker of surprise and uncertainty flashing in his single eye. His massive body slowly swam through the void!

"Something's wrong!"

After defeating the Azure Nether Venerable for the eighteenth time, he finally noticed something was wrong.

Logically speaking, after enduring so many attacks, a high-ranking Venerable should have suffered at least 10% damage to their divine body.

Even with the protection of powerful armor, one shouldn't act like this!

Yet, the Azure Nether Venerable before them still possessed an aura as full as ever!

"clang!"

Another fierce collision ensued, with the thunderous spear and golden claws clashing and sparking blinding flashes. Using the force of the recoil, Venerable Golden Fire quickly created distance, his single eye spinning wildly as he carefully sensed Venerable Azure Nether's condition.

"How can it be?!"

He was shocked to discover that the opponent's divine power fluctuations did not diminish at all; on the contrary, they would quickly recover to their peak state after each injury! This completely violated the common sense of combat among cosmic masters!

"you!"

Venerable Golden Fire suddenly spoke, his voice filled with disbelief.

"You possess a priceless treasure of the origin!"

The Azure Netherworld Venerable did not answer, but merely sneered, and the thunderous spear in his hand once again emitted a dazzling purple light. The Heavenly Roc Wings on his back gently vibrated, drawing graceful azure trajectories in the void.

"Damn it!"

Venerable Golden Fire cursed inwardly. If his opponent truly possessed a supreme treasure of the origin, then this battle would become a pure war of attrition. However, no matter how powerful his divine body was, he would inevitably suffer losses as his opponent continued to regenerate!

"This can't go on any longer! Why hasn't Shadow Annihilation, that Chaos, arrived yet!"

He suddenly swung his snake tail, forcing the Azure Nether Venerable back!

"Golden Scales Burn the Sky!"

With a deafening roar, a golden pillar of fire, over a kilometer in diameter, spewed out from the gaping maw.

The pillar of fire twisted and deformed in the void, transforming into a lifelike golden dragon that rushed towards Venerable Qingming with terrifying heat capable of incinerating everything!

This is one of Venerable Golden Fire's strongest killing moves, consuming five percent of his divine body each time it's used. But at this moment, he can't care about that anymore!

Faced with this earth-shattering attack, a trace of solemnity finally flashed in Venerable Qingming's eyes.

Under the incredulous gaze of Venerable Golden Fire, he pulled out... a palace!

Chapter 136 Palace Tank Strategy

The Golden Fire Venerable's golden pillar of fire slammed into the palace's surface, unleashing a deafening roar. The entire palace was sent flying backward by the force, leaving a long trail in the air.

However, when the light faded, the palace surface remained pristine, without a single scratch.

"This defensive power! A top-tier palace-class treasure?!"

Venerable Golden Fire's single eye widened, and his golden pupil contracted violently.

He could hardly believe his eyes. This Azure Nether Venerable not only possessed offensive treasures, defensive treasures, and flying treasures, but now he had actually pulled out a top-tier palace-type treasure!

And they're all top-tier!

"What are you talking about!"

He roared angrily, his voice echoing through the void.

At that moment, he finally understood what despair meant. His enemy was hiding in the palace, rendering all his attacks futile; yet they could launch surprise attacks at any time. How could he possibly win this battle?

The palace gates slowly opened, and Venerable Qingming walked out calmly, a mocking smile on his face: "What, are you scared already?"

"mean!"

Venerable Golden Fire gritted his teeth.

"If you've got the guts, come out and fight me fair and square!"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Qingming suddenly burst into laughter: "Upright and honorable? Hahahaha, precious treasures are part of one's strength. Who can you blame for being poor!"

His eyes suddenly turned cold.

"Today, I'll let you taste what it's like to be crushed!"

Upon seeing this, Venerable Golden Fire's scales bristled: "Wait! We can talk!"

He was already cursing in his mind: "I'm poor! Do you know how many Venerables can't even afford a supreme treasure?!" He was carrying a high-grade supreme treasure armor, which meant he was already quite wealthy.

He certainly learned a lot today.

This pile of equipment would be impossible to acquire without at least ten Treasure Points!

At that very moment, the entire void suddenly trembled violently!

"Boom boom boom——"

Space rippled like water as two terrifying auras suddenly descended. The already fragmented star field collapsed once more under this pressure, and countless spatial fragments scattered like snowflakes.

"finally come!"

A look of wild joy flashed from Venerable Golden Fire's single eye.

Two figures appeared in the void, breaking through space to arrive.

Leading the group was none other than the Shadow Annihilation Venerable from before. Beside him stood a massive, crimson lava beast, its body flowing with scalding magma.

However, when the two newly arrived demon clan venerables saw the situation on the battlefield, they were both stunned.

"Two...two palace-type treasures?!"

The lava behemoth let out a deep, startled cry, its magma-like eyes flashing violently.
