Devouring the Stars: Blood Sea Demon Lord

Chapter 342 Leaked
There are approximately six hundred cosmic lords who have come to compete for the ultimate treasure, while the eight top forces have only a little over one hundred, which is about one-fifth of the total.

More often, they are universe lords from top-tier and secondary powers, as well as solitary universe lords who have no clan to rely on.

Second only to the top-tier forces, there are over a hundred universe lords, from the 'Nine Domains Alliance', 'Thorn Ring Alliance', 'Ethereal Alliance', and more than a dozen other forces.

The largest number are actually secondary forces and those solitary universe lords.

The primordial universe was vast and boundless, teeming with countless life forms. In order to survive, weaker groups banded together for warmth and formed all sorts of forces.

Individually, these forces are far inferior to the top-tier and elite forces, but due to their large number, they actually possess the most universe lords.

The 'Three Mountains Alliance,' 'Thousand Waters Alliance,' 'Black and White Alliance'... the universe lords of hundreds of forces are listed in different regions.

Besides the universe lords among these forces, there are also a dozen or so lone universe lords who have neither a race nor have joined any force.

There are over six hundred cosmic lords, each a majestic being who controls time and space and commands respect in their respective regions.

If it weren't for the allure of the ultimate treasure, such a sight would be almost impossible to witness.

"Engineer Peng, the human race is led by you? What? Chaos doesn't dare to come out?"

Perhaps out of boredom, a colossal cosmic ruler from the demon race camp, his body entirely black, looked toward the human race camp and sneered.

"Even the Forbidden Extinction wouldn't dare say such a thing, You Demon, who do you think you are, daring to provoke Chaos?!"

Peng Gongzhi remained silent, but another young man in black beside him spoke with murderous intent.

The one who spoke was Lord Youhou, but the other human universe lords, such as Lord Bingfeng and Lord Longxing, also looked coldly at Lord Youmo.

The Lord of Chaos City has been guarding the human race's main base, the Chaos City of the Initial Universe, for many years and rarely makes a move. This is known throughout the Primordial Universe. The Lord of the Nether Demons deliberately provoked him, and the human race's powerful figures naturally wouldn't tolerate it.

"Lord You, a newly promoted junior, how dare you speak to me like that? Are you courting death?"

The Lord of the Netherworld was furious and pointed at the Lord of the Netherworld, shouting at him.

"You can try it and see who's courting death!"

Lord Youhou said disdainfully.

The Lord of Youhou did not reign as the ruler of the universe for very long.

However, he possessed profound knowledge and skills. As early as the time of the Universe Venerable, he created the ultimate technique of the Universe Lord. After advancing to the Universe Lord, with the support of the human race, he quickly enhanced his genes by 1 times. With a complete set of top-tier treasures, he already had the strength of a senior third-tier Universe Lord.

Although the Lord of the Netherworld has been the Lord of the Universe for much longer than the Lord of the Netherworld, he is only at the third rank, so the Lord of the Netherworld is naturally not afraid.

"What's the point of just talking? Why don't you two have a fight and see who comes out on top?"

In the distance, a cosmic lord from the Northern Frontier Alliance faction laughed.

"Yes, since neither of you is willing to concede to the other, let's have a fight, and we'll be the witnesses!"

One of the universe masters from the Crystal Clan faction also said with a smile.

"Ha ha!"

From the direction of the Nine Realms Alliance, a towering figure, nearly ten thousand kilometers tall, with a single black horn piercing the sky on its forehead, laughed loudly:
"I bet on the Lord of the Netherworld to win. How could Youhou, a mere junior, possibly be a match for the Netherworld!"

Upon hearing this voice, all the human universe lords looked over, their eyes filled with rage.

The ruler of the Nine Realms Alliance is none other than the Flame Emperor, who once broke away from the human race. He enjoys kicking the human race when they are down and opposes them at every turn. The human race's powerful members hate him to the bone.

Facing the angry gazes of more than a dozen human universe lords, Yan Di remained fearless, but his gaze was somewhat unfocused.

"Humph!"

With a fleeting glance, Emperor Yan felt aggrieved and cursed inwardly:

"It's all because that old bastard, Zuo Shan Ke, is biased and forced me to hand over the 'Calamity Armor' to that kid Luo Feng. Otherwise, I wouldn't be afraid of them at all, and there would be no need for me to come to the Primordial Star to compete for the ultimate defensive treasure!"

The 'Calamity Armor' is a top-tier treasure, nearly the most powerful of all, far surpassing the newly emerged top-tier defensive treasure. With the Calamity Armor, Emperor Yan fears no enemy. For so many years, his ability to openly oppose the human race is largely due to his possession of the top-tier defensive treasure, the 'Calamity Armor'.

Having lost the 'Armor of Calamity' and suffered a significant decline in strength, Emperor Yan inevitably felt apprehensive when facing so many human universe lords once again.

With so many universe lords watching, the ever-concerned Yan Emperor naturally wouldn't show weakness. He acted as arrogantly as usual, but in his heart, he repeatedly cursed the old bastard, Zuo Shan Ke.

"Emperor Yan, don't let me meet you in the Primal Universe!"

The Lord of Ice Peak spoke with a cold gaze and murderous intent.

"Bingfeng, you have no right to talk to me like that!"

Emperor Yan snorted and said disdainfully.

Although he no longer possessed the supreme defensive treasure 'Chaos Armor', he still possessed the supreme offensive treasure 'Flame God Halberd', making him a powerful being with strength nearly equivalent to a fourth-tier universe lord.

Emperor Yan was capricious and arrogant, and he was not afraid of the Lord of Ice Peak.

"Everyone!"

At that moment, the Black Lotus Lord of the Northern Frontier Alliance, a powerful being on par with the Star Lord, suddenly spoke loudly:

"Just now, Xingkong told me that the more than five thousand cosmic venerables from various races who fell here earlier were all killed by the human race's 'Cold Sword Venerable'!"

"Ok?"

"what?"

"All thirty-three of my race's Universe Venerables died at the hands of the human race's 'Cold Sword Venerable'?"

"All thirty-five of my race's Universe Venerables died at the hands of the human race's 'Cold Sword Venerable'?"

"All twenty-nine of my race's Universe Venerables died at the hands of the human race's 'Cold Sword Venerable'?"

"All thirty-six of my race's Universe Venerables died at the hands of the human race's 'Cold Sword Venerable'?"

……

As soon as the Lord of the Black Lotus finished speaking, all six hundred-plus Universe Lords present looked toward the human camp and asked questions one after another.

"..."

The Lord of Penggong, the Lord of Bingfeng, and other masters of the human universe looked at each other in bewilderment.

The human universe venerables who escaped, such as Venerable Golden Axe, reported this to them, and it was later acknowledged by the divine power avatar of the Dark Sea in Chaos City. Therefore, the human universe lord knew about this matter.

However, at that time, Minghai changed his appearance and even concealed his soul aura. Since there was no universe lord present, those alien universe venerables had no idea who killed them.

Given this, the human race's leadership has already reached a consensus to deny the matter.

The consequences of killing more than 5,000 Universe Venerables in one go are too great. It might not be so bad if we admit that it was done by the human race, but we will have to pay a very high price to smooth things over.

After all, these cosmic venerables come from different races and forces in the original universe. Although the human race is strong, it is impossible for them to wage war against so many races at the same time.

Among the human race, the only fifth-tier universe master present, the chubby, bald, and bearded Peng Gong, looked at the Black Lotus Master and shook his head, saying:
"Black Lotus, don't talk nonsense without evidence. How could Leng Jian possibly have the ability to kill more than five thousand Universe Venerables? He's not a Universe Lord!"

"Black Lotus, what Master Peng said makes sense!"

The Golden Horned Lord of the Starry Sky Beast Alliance looked at the Black Lotus Lord with a puzzled expression and asked:

"I know Cold Sword Venerable. He's a peerless genius of the human race. He once repelled a high-level universe venerable during his time as a world lord, and after advancing to the level of universe venerable, he became a top-tier universe overlord. But even he couldn't have killed more than five thousand universe venerables, could he?"

Upon hearing this, all the lords of the universes nodded slightly and looked at the Lord of the Black Lotus, waiting for its explanation.
