In the Space Interlayer hundreds of billions of kilometers away from the Imperial Capital Star Mengyou Empire in the Ganwu Universe Country.

A vast and mighty expanse, filled with countless Space Fragments.

A figure stood in the void.

It was a powerful Alien Race warrior with a stratum corneum covering his entire body, clad in ancient black armor, wearing a mask, and silently waiting.

Countless lights and shadows flashed before his eyes.

"I hope they can successfully complete their mission," Venerable Jue Guang himself.

He did not use divine power to investigate the situation at the scene, but rather used detection instruments in conjunction with the Puppet Body.

This employs a method similar to that of the Demon Race. When powerful Demon Race members travel through the universe, especially when traveling in spaceships, their large size makes things very inconvenient. Therefore, their true forms are hidden inside World Ring, with a wisp of consciousness controlling the puppet body to handle various matters.

After all... even if the detection equipment used is very advanced, there is still a possibility of being discovered. Venerable Jue Guang made this special arrangement, separating a wisp of his consciousness to reside in this Puppet Body. Even if it is discovered and destroyed by a human super strongman, it will not have any impact on him.

He can leave with ease.

Whether to use the divine kingdom of the Immortal God under their control as a springboard to quickly escape to the core territory of the Zerg, or to find an opportunity to complete the mission, the decision can be made based on the situation.

This is Human territory, and as a Venerable of Alien Race, Venerable Jue Guang faces immense risks when operating here, so he must be extremely careful.

"It seems that there was no Divine Kingdom Teleportation when he encountered danger, which is good news," he thought to himself.

In his plan, if Lin Yan summoned a powerful figure through a token, he would take immediate action, as it was very likely to be his teacher, "Mu Xing Country Lord," or even an even stronger figure.

Of course, this phenomenon is rare in the countless years of competition between the Zerg and humans.

"However, time is still very limited."

"If I discover any movement from the Qianwu Country Lord, I will have to take action myself." Venerable Jue Guang frowned.

The powerful beings of humanity will leave coordinates in countless locations across the Human territory of the universe. Once an Alien Race invasion occurs at a certain coordinate, those powerful beings will instantly Divine Kingdom Teleportation there!

As the Country Lord of the Ganwu Universe Country, I will definitely rush here as soon as I receive the news!

The only uncertainty is where the nearest coordinate token to the Qianwu Country Lord is, which will affect the arrival time.

Time is running out for the Heart Devouring King and his men!

If they haven't completed their mission by the time the Qianwu Country Lord arrives, then Venerable Jue Guang will have to take action personally.

This is also the most fatal aspect of the Zerg's arrangement.

The Venerable Jue Guang Jueguang possesses a natural Talent Secret Method for Soul Control.

Whether it's discovering the movement of the Divine Kingdom Teleportation or the arrival of the Qianwu Country Lord, it wouldn't be too difficult for Venerable Jue Guang to Soul Control.

The reason we are not taking action now is simply to avoid paying too high a price.

Venerable Jue Guang secretly observed the situation on the battlefield, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"Your Excellency, I am the Universe Venerable, but in the eyes of my race, in the eyes of the Zerg Alliance, I am not as much of a threat as a human being who is a Domain Lord."

"I assassinated the human genius Lin Yan in Human territory, and was then killed by a human super strongman in retaliation."

"The most terrifying thing is that even if this is just an avatar and not fatal, I still have to be more discreet in the future, or stay within the Zerg Territory. Otherwise, if the human race discovers me, the Super Existence of the human race will probably seek revenge for their peerless genius and kill me."

"How ridiculous."

Venerable Jue Guang felt a pang of sorrow, yet he was powerless to resist. Even his home race could not defy the Zerg's orders, let alone a Universe Venerable like himself.

Perhaps in terms of individual strength, he is definitely a being who can dominate the universe, but compared with the most powerful beings in the universe, he is incredibly weak and can only obey orders.

Inside the Emperor Ship.

The silver-haired Golden Eye man's Soul Control technique against Lin Yan failed completely, and suddenly a familiar voice rang out behind him.

"We meet again."

In that instant.

His golden pupils suddenly contracted, forming vertical pupils, as if a golden knife was concentrated within them, and his gaze was like a series of sharp blades.

The Heart Devouring King suddenly turned around.

A thin figure stood before him.

The gaunt man had his eyes closed, wore a white battle robe, had a pale face, and two black horns. The surrounding space and time seemed to be subtly distorted and disordered.

An immense pressure spread out, causing people to tremble.

"King Tong Nan!!" Heart Devouring King's expression was somewhat distorted, his eyes filled with flames of hatred as he roared hysterically.

The gaunt man in the white robe was none other than King Tong Nan, who had been cultivating in seclusion in Chaos City for millions of years!

At this moment, King Tong Nan no longer possessed his usual calm demeanor; instead, he exuded a sharp and murderous aura.

He took a step forward.

"Back then, you killed my disciple, so I exterminated your entire clan, and you managed to escape by sheer luck... Now that you dare to step into my Human territory, it's time to leave your life behind!"

"Die!" King Tong Nan's murderous voice echoed in Heart Devouring King's consciousness.

The Heart Devouring King's face immediately turned extremely ugly.

Hiss...

Those eyes, which had remained closed for billions of years, slowly opened at this moment, causing the Time Flow Rate to change and space to tremble...

True Yan King, King Tong Nan, and Longyu King were close friends from the same era. They often ventured together into dangerous Cosmic Secret Realm, experiencing numerous tribulations and forging an unbreakable bond.

All three of them are incredibly powerful, belonging to the pinnacle of the King Ranks.

True Yan King belongs to the countless races and billions of Immortal God in the entire universe, and is the closest to a Venerable. His status and position are comparable to ordinary Universe Venerable.

Longyu King and King Tong Nan are slightly weaker than True Yan King.

True Yan King was hot-tempered and tyrannical, and had killed countless people. His disciples were also extremely violent and bloodthirsty, with the "Bloodthirsty King" being the most famous. Lin Yan had long known that King Tong Nan True Yan King, was not a benevolent person either.

Of the three of them, only "Longyu King" had a better temperament, but he was still extremely cold.

Now, after hundreds of millions of years of silence, its original appearance is no longer recognizable.

The reason they appeared here this time was not due to the Virtual Universe Company's arrangement, but because of "Heart Devouring King".

The Heart Devouring King was born into the Alien Race "Golden Pixiu Clan," one of the billions of races in the Demon Race. They are few in number but extremely warlike. The Golden Pixiu Clan has no Universe Venerable, Heart Devouring King is one of the top three in the clan. Millions of years ago, he was a very famous Feng Wang expert.

King Tong Nan once had three disciples. Two of them failed to cross the difficult path to immortality and died on the way. Only one of them successfully broke through to immortality and his strength approached that of King Rank. However, he perished at the hands of the "Heart Devouring King" on the Outer Domain Battlefield.

King Tong Nan treated this disciple like a close relative, and in a fit of rage, he actually stormed into the Demon Race territory!

He paid a heavy price to wipe out the entire Golden Pixiu Clan, with only the Heart Devouring King managing to escape due to his superior strength.

Even though the Demon Race doesn't have Virtual Universe and is far inferior to humans and Mechanical race in terms of long-distance communication, and has relatively poor control over its territory, it is still rare for them to be this crazy. When the Demon Race venerable appeared, King Tong Nan almost died at the hands of the Demon Race Universe Venerable.

Thanks to the audacity of the True Yan King, who was willing to Blade Mountain any danger for his brother!

They finally managed to withdraw to Human territory. Since then, the Heart Devouring King has become the Soul Servant of the Zerg Mother Queen, Universe Venerable level, while the King Tong Nan has remained silent in Chaos City for billions of years.

Lin Yan was assassinated in the "Wu Long Star Domain". King Tong Nan was naturally very concerned about this matter. The Feng Wang Immortal God was the Soul Servant of the Heart Devouring King. Others could not recognize him, but King Tong Nan recognized him and guessed that the Heart Devouring King must be behind this!

Upon learning of Lin Yan's mission, he immediately left Chaos City and found Lin Yan. No one else knew about this; he had been in Lin Yan's World Ring for the past few days.

Clearly, he was right.

Boom!

A golden light flashed, and a huge crack appeared on the top of the Emperor Ship, from which the Heart Devouring King fled in panic.

"Mission failed, run!" The Heart Devouring King roared, his face ashen.

Both the "Qi Sha King" of the Demon Race camp and the "Chen Hun King" of the Mechanical race camp were startled.

In the silent starry sky.

"It's too late."

A calm voice rang out.

Wow!

The hatch of the Emperor Ship opened, and a thin figure dressed in a white robe stood in the starry sky.

"Boom!"

An incredibly terrifying aura spread in all directions, as if a peerless ferocious beast was slowly awakening.

The Time Flow Rate around the powerful divine body of King Tong Nan was affected, and the energy fluctuations caused by the casting of this powerful secret technique made the surrounding space tremble.

The left eye is "darkness," the right eye is "light," and suddenly, ancient runes light up within them!

He looked at the three Peak Feng Wang Alien Race kings in the void.

An invisible wave swept by, and the three powerful Alien Race races were instantly frozen in mid-air, motionless.

"Time Stop."

"I've been infected!"

Time Stop is a heaven-defying ultimate move by those who are masters of the Time Law. Once Time Stop is cast on a certain area, all life in that area will be affected. Except for the soul and consciousness, everything else will be bound and unable to move.

If the opponent does not possess the "Time Stop" technique, it will generally take some time for them to struggle and break free, which is enough time for a strong person to kill or slaughter their opponent.

Meanwhile, Si Fanqi some distance away, stared in disbelief.

"This human expert... is actually this strong!"

"His Highness Lin Yan actually has such a powerful protector in secret; it seems he's going to escape danger this time!"

Although his strength was only average among those at the Peak Feng Wang, he still had this much insight.

The human powerhouse before them was unmatched by any Immortal God in the Golden Horn Clan, and even in the Outer Domain Battlefield, the Feng Wang expert of various races there were no match for him!

It should be noted that there are many "Feng Wang Limit" powerhouses in the Outer Domain Battlefield.

If the strength of the Heart Devouring King is close to the "Feng Wang Limit", then the strength of the King Tong Nan is only slightly weaker than that of the True Yan King, and is close to the Invincible Feng Wang.

The difference may seem small, but in reality, it's like an insurmountable chasm.

Ultimate skills, Law Comprehension, amplitude-based secret techniques, precious treasures, cunning schemes... all are indispensable.

Just like the True Yan King, who possessed several treasures, the King Tong Nan also had treasures, and the treasure fused into his eye was one of them!

Furthermore, the most powerful Soul Attack Secret Technique he created was based on this treasure!

"Pfft!" "Pfft!" "Pfft!"

The powerful divine force contained within those strange eyes caused the surrounding space to shatter inch by inch, suddenly bursting forth with black and white rays of light.

That ancient and terrifying aura made one feel as if everything else in the vast universe had disappeared, leaving only that pair of eyes floating in the starry sky.

"Boom!"

The moment they opened their eyes, a powerful, invisible divine force rushed directly into the bodies of the three Alien Race powerhouses.

"Break! Break! Break!"

The Heart Devouring King's Will and Consciousness roared, urging his entire body to break free from the "Time Stop." His powerful divine body naturally rebounded from the constraints of the Time Flow Rate.

But then...

"Boom!"

The terrifying attack contained in those eyes instantly struck the soul.

"How is that possible?"

"He's become even more terrifying, much more terrifying!"

The Heart Devouring King himself was quite accomplished in the study of souls, but at this moment, he found that he was completely unable to stop it. His Soul Defense Secret Technique was like a gentle breeze, unable to shake this invisible attack in the slightest.

He was instantly plunged into an endless nightmare!

King Tong Nan slowly closed his eyes. This was Peak Secret Technique of Soul Attack that he had created. When combined with a powerful treasure, it was extremely powerful.

Being trapped in nightmares allows the Soul Erosion attack to subtly erode the enemy's soul, quickly leading to their Soul Annihilation.

Even if you have a clone, it won't help.

There are only two ways to break this trick.

The first method involves forcibly breaking the spell by relying on overwhelming divine power or Supreme Treasure that protects the soul.

The second type is those with strong willpower who break through the nightmare illusion. The weaker the willpower, the faster the Soul Erosion. They spend a long time in the illusion, while only a moment passes in the outside world.

Lin Yan then flew out of the spaceship.

He thought to himself, "Once I figure out the 'Sacrificial Rune,' I'll set it up on the spaceship and teleport inside. Who can withstand that?"

Lin Yan came to King Tong Nan's side and looked at the three huge divine bodies in the starry sky, which looked like they were just sleeping.

"They're already dead?" he couldn't help but wonder.

King Tong Nan nodded slightly and said softly, "He brought it on himself."

Soul Annihilation is the method that Immortal God fear most!

However, there are very few Feng Wang expert are skilled in Soul Attack, and King Tong Nan is one of them!

In the Space Interlayer.

"A bunch of useless trash!"

A fierce glint flashed in Venerable Jue Guang's eyes, and his killing intent instantly reached its peak.

As expected, that human genius had a powerful protector secretly protecting him; those three good-for-nothings were completely useless!

King Tong Nan?

While powerful enough among Immortal God, he was nothing to Venerable Jue Guang.

"I, a dignified Universe Venerable, sacrificed myself for you, a mere domain lord. You should be proud, Lin Yan!" Venerable Jue Guang vanished instantly.

In the distant starry sky of the Imperial Capital Star.

"Boom..."

Ripples spread across the starry sky, and a powerful pressure suddenly descended, as if a divine dragon had come down. The power that left no one with any resistance instantly spread throughout the surrounding star field.

A majestic figure gradually emerged, its face partially obscured by clouds and mist.

"It is the Qianwu Country Lord," King Tong Nan said, turning his head.

Lin Yan nodded.

But then—

A huge figure suddenly appeared in front of Lin Yan and King Tong Nan.

Call out!

Time completely stopped in the surrounding area spanning hundreds of millions of kilometers!

Lin Yan and King Tong Nan were completely bound to the spot, with only their soul consciousness remaining, almost roaring.

"Universe Venerable!"

"The Alien Race has actually sent Universe Venerable!"

Qianwu Country Lord saw this scene, his eyes almost spit fire.

However, Venerable Jue Guang's strength was no less than his. Even if he were by Lin Yan's side, it would be impossible for him to protect him, let alone the fact that the other party had already used "Time Stop".

The Time Stop of Universe Venerable and the Time Stop ability of Feng Wang expert are two completely different concepts.

Whoosh!

Behind the ancient mask, the seemingly indifferent eyes suddenly erupted with terrifying killing intent. Boom... The Alien Race powerhouse, clad in ancient black armor, pounced directly at Lin Yan with extreme speed. At the same time, an aura that shook the surrounding heaven and earth instantly burst forth from its body, its aura increasing a thousandfold in an instant.

The divine body has already burned!

"I will avenge you!" the Qianwu Country Lord roared in his heart. "He cannot possibly leave Human territory alive!"

At this moment.

Lin Yan had absolutely no ability to resist. It was a terrifying attack from a Universe Venerable who burning Divine Power. He wasn't even sure if he could withstand the opponent's Soul Control.

His will was unwavering. Even if the opponent was Universe Venerable, there was still a glimmer of hope, and he absolutely could not give up!

Although the "Light Web Crystal" has not yet truly become a top-tier Origin Supreme Treasure and its current power is not strong enough, with his willpower and the state of "Unity of Heaven and Man," there is still a glimmer of hope to resist the opponent's Soul Control.

As for other things, I can't worry about them anymore.

Lin Yan's fighting spirit surged up suddenly. After so long of studying and cultivating the "Heavenly Demon Bell" and "Heavenly Demon Illusion," everything became clear to him in this life-or-death situation.

The breath of death is incredibly close!

Suddenly--

"You've finally appeared. I've been waiting for you for so long." The rumbling sound echoed in the starry sky.

A majestic figure stands in the starry sky.

Rumble...

Behind him, an incredibly tall tree soared into the sky, radiating light that was dazzling and formed layers of halos. Its entire body was a deep green, and its Tree Crown was like a magnificent canopy.

Venerable Jue Guang seemed oblivious, focused only on completing his mission.

But!

At this moment, time and space began to reverse!

The Qianwu Country Lord was utterly shocked by what he saw!

Ancestor Tree! Ancestor Tree!
