Sword Cleaves a Realm Lord

While waiting in the Myriad Gods Starfield, Zhou Lin had also ventured out alone from time to time. He was at the Void Realm True Meaning Second Stage, so it was completely impossible for anyone to discover him.

The cruelty of this starfield was even more terrifying than he had imagined.

The flight speed in Snow Eagle was very slow because of the restrictions imposed by the Heaven and Earth Rules. The fastest one could reach was only six hundred thousand miles per second.

The Primordial Universe had no such restriction. Zhou Lin could easily fly at sublight speed. He visited several planets and also witnessed the Myriad Gods Hall's way of doing things.

The so-called Myriad Gods referred to a Divine Lord whom they worshiped.

A statue of the Divine Lord stood on every inhabited planet. Everyone, whether they were members of the management or slaves, had to worship the Divine Lord.

Zhou Lin had investigated this himself, but he had found no Immortal in the Luojin Universe Nation called Myriad Gods.

As for who this Divine Lord really was, perhaps only the second stage or even later would reveal it.

Time flew, and soon the so-called worship ceremony arrived.

Large numbers of spaceships began to appear, coming from all directions of the Luojin Universe Nation. This organization was not merely entrenched in a single starfield.

They were like a cancer, having nearly monopolized the entire slave trade of the Luojin Universe Nation, along with many other illegal businesses.

"This organization has nearly a billion employees, ranging from Stellar level to Realm Lord." Zhou Lin knew about the crimes the Fire Phoenix Group would commit in the future.

But compared with the Myriad Gods Hall at this moment, they still fell far short.

God Star.

This planet was about the same size as Earth, but its appearance was completely different.

God Star was covered in primeval forests. At its very center stood a magnificent Temple nearly five thousand kilometers in diameter.

"Are the sacrifices ready?"

In front of the Temple, Hai Yue said to his subordinate beside him, "Hurry it up. The worship ceremony begins in two hours."

"No problem, sir." The speaker had dark skin and three arms. He was Zu Yan, Hai Yue's Right-hand Man.

At the very center of the Temple were tens of millions of living beings.

That was right. The so-called worship of the Divine Lord used living people as sacrifices, and such activities took place two or three times every decade.

Noon was about to arrive, and the sun was blazing. After arranging his attire, Hai Yue climbed to the highest point in front of the Temple. Below him were all the believers of the Myriad Gods Hall.

Hai Yue wore golden battle robes and held a dragon-carved scepter. The moment he stepped onto the platform, he shouted, "Kneel before the Divine Lord!"

"Kneel before the Divine Lord!"

The shouts shook the heavens. Everyone below fell to their knees and devoutly kowtowed toward the Temple.

The Temple was dazzlingly colorful, and people constantly repaired and cleaned it. Its exterior looked quite new, yet no matter how one looked at it, there was something eerie about it.

Countless believers shouted fanatically while all kinds of unknown instruments rang out.

The living beings inside the Temple had long since been terrified into blank expressions. Some of the younger ones had even begun to cry. Their lives were about to be harvested.

Nine-Colored Light flashed, illuminating the endless primeval forest. The surging cries even scattered the sea of clouds in the sky.

Buzz~

A deep sound rang out across the entire planet.

Hai Yue, who was kneeling on the ground, was startled. He hurriedly rose and looked toward the void.

"A spaceship! It's a spaceship!"

Some believers had already cried out in alarm. They stared at the sky in disbelief as a spaceship hundreds of miles long blotted out the sun.

Inside the Temple, the tens of millions of living beings chosen as sacrifices also raised their heads. Their gazes, which had already been filled with despair, once again flickered with faint hope.

They had been seized from all over the universe to be offered as living sacrifices.

Among these beings, the strongest was only at Stellar level. They were completely powerless to struggle against the Myriad Gods Hall, and everyone was bound by specially made chains.

The spaceship's doors opened, and large groups of warriors flew out.

Leading them were Aido and Zhou Lin.

"Immortal Spirit?!"

Hai Yue gritted his teeth as he quickly sized up Zhou Lin and Aido. He seemed to have remembered something, and his expression shifted uncertainly.

The believers stood frozen in place, not daring to make a sound.

The words "Immortal Spirit" were like a sharp blade thrust straight into their hearts.

"I sentence every one of you present to death!"

Zhou Lin spoke coldly, his voice as thunderous as a peal of thunder, resounding across ten thousand miles.

Everyone was sentenced to death!!!

Even Aido was somewhat shocked as he looked at Zhou Lin. After all, the Virtual Universe was currently open for synchronized transmission, and every move would be scored by the higher-ups.

There were more than 360 million people below.

"Your Highness Zhou Lin!" Hai Yue's face turned pale as he directly revealed Zhou Lin's identity. "Spare me and show some consideration for the people behind us."

"Take action, Aido." Zhou Lin merely turned around and said one sentence.

Swish!

Aido's figure vanished instantly. His speed reached an extreme, and given the planet's limited area, he arrived beside Hai Yue in an instant.

"No!" A weaker Realm Lord naturally would not have been able to react in time, but Hai Yue was, after all, a Ninth Stage Lord of the Realm. Plant Lifeform instantly surfaced around him.

Boom!

Aido's fist struck directly into Hai Yue's chest, blasting him into the sky.

"Pfft!"

The enormous impact sent blood spraying from Hai Yue's mouth.

Without a Ninth Stage Lord of the Realm Plant Lifeform to absorb the blow, Aido's punch would have sent him straight to the afterlife.

The gap between an Immortal and a Realm Lord was simply too vast.

"Die! If you want to kill me, you won't get off easy either!" Hai Yue flew rapidly toward Zhou Lin, looking completely deranged.

At that moment, two Plant Lifeforms emerged from Hai Yue's body, intending to entangle Aido, while Hai Yue himself prepared to fight to the death and kill Zhou Lin.

But in the next instant, Aido appeared above Hai Yue's head.

Boom!

Hai Yue's body was smashed downward. He crashed into the ground, creating a deep pit more than a hundred kilometers across. The surrounding believers had long since scattered like birds and beasts.

The higher-ups were also preparing to flee amid the chaos.

"There are so many people. I refuse to believe he can kill them all." Zu Yan, Hai Yue's top lackey, was the fastest. He had begun preparing to escape the moment he saw Aido take action.

A prince of the Virtual Universe Company had brought an Immortal Spirit with him. Zu Yan was not as foolish as Hai Yue and did not actually believe their backers could protect them.

He had been born a slave and had paid an unknown amount in blood, sweat, and effort to reach where he was today, becoming the Myriad Gods Hall's second-in-command.

"You deal with the believers outside the mission's targets and protect those innocent beings while you're at it. I'll handle the higher-ups." Zhou Lin instructed his guard squad.

According to the mission's requirements, the guard squad and Aido could not interfere in dealing with the higher-ups. However, they could deal with the believers who were not on the list as they pleased.

Every one of these executioners was burdened with countless blood debts. Zhou Lin felt no burden whatsoever about killing them.

Zhou Lin's fighting spirit surged.

He could finally unleash his full strength.

"You'll be the first." Zhou Lin's gaze quickly locked onto Zu Yan.

The Void Realm Domain spread out, enveloping more than half the planet.

At present, the higher-ups were still mixed in with the crowd. They knew that if they burst into action, they would only be identified as the ones sticking their heads out.

Moreover, no one knew the mission's requirements. Zu Yan and the others all thought Aido would interfere, so they did their best to disguise themselves.

Zhou Lin drew the Long Sword from his back.

Slash!

A sword beam tore through the sky, stretching a hundred miles in length and width. Its might was so tremendous that even Aido was slightly astonished. In the blink of an eye, it struck Zu Yan.

The Myriad Gods Hall's second-in-command, Zu Yan, a Third Stage Lord of the Realm.

Dead!
