"No—!"

Two piercing screams rang out almost simultaneously. Two High-level King bug clan warriors had their Divine Bodies shatter inch by inch beneath the blade light, dissolving into ash and scattering in the blink of an eye.

Complete annihilation.

Yan Ning's blade momentum did not falter, driving straight for Six-Blade King's head!

"Die for me!"

Just as the blade edge was about to land, Six-Blade King's six compound eyes suddenly erupted with blinding bloodlight!

"Ahhh—Burn! Burn it all!!"

Divine power within him seethed wildly, the secret patterns on all six pairs of wings blazing bright, breaking free from the temporal imprisonment at the critical moment!

"Swoosh!"

Six-Blade King's form retreated explosively, narrowly dodging the fatal strike, but the three blades on his left side were still severed cleanly at the root!

"Pfft!"

Six-Blade King's face twisted, letting out a pained roar: "You... how could you..."

What kind of ability was this!!

A domain-type treasure, absolutely a domain-type treasure!

But, there—why hadn't he seen it!

When had Demon Flame King activated it!

Yan Ning's brow furrowed slightly, a silent sigh of regret in his heart.

As expected of a Peak King—he actually managed to forcibly break free from the Chaos Bell's confinement!

Even if it had only gently rippled within his sea of consciousness.

He hadn't even taken the Chaos Bell out.

Inside this Star Tower, there was a Universe Master after all.

Better not flaunt the Chaos Bell too openly.

Still, he soon revealed a cold smirk: "Ran pretty fast, though."

Those three strikes had already annihilated roughly forty-five percent of his Divine Body!

In other words, he couldn't escape anymore!

Six-Blade King's remaining three blades trembled wildly, his voice laced with unprecedented terror: "This isn't ordinary time law! You... you definitely have a treasure, a domain-type treasure!"

Yan Ning didn't answer, only slowly raised his warblade, crimson-gold flames reigniting along the edge: "The dead don't need to know too much."

Seeing this, Six-Blade King's six wings vibrated frantically, and he turned to flee!

"Trying to leave?"

Yan Ning snorted coldly, his form flickering as he transformed into a streak of crimson-gold light, chasing straight after Six-Blade King.

The Chaos Bell vibrated faintly within his sea of consciousness, invisible ripples of spacetime spreading outward, slowing Six-Blade King's speed by thirty percent!

"You—don't push me!"

Six-Blade King's six compound eyes were filled with madness.

"If you insist on killing me, I'll spread the news that you possess a domain-type treasure! Then everyone will come hunting you!"

"Annoying!"

Yan Ning's warblade suddenly swelled, a blade light spanning heaven and earth splitting the void, driving straight for Six-Blade King's head!

"Damn it!"

Six-Blade King hastily raised his remaining three black blades to block, but the strike shattered another five percent of his Divine Body!

His Divine Body had taken too much damage, his combat power plummeting. That strange treasure's restriction had cost him too much too quickly—now he had no strength left to resist!

He knew escape was impossible today, and a venomous glint suddenly flashed in his six compound eyes: "If I die, you won't get off easy either!"

A special soul ripple instantly spread through the bug clan's unique mental network.

[Urgent bulletin! Human Demon Flame King possesses a domain-type treasure! Coordinates: Forbidden Space, Northwest Sector, First Floor of Star Tower!]

He hadn't concealed it at all, so everyone could receive this message.

Including Yan Ning.

Yan Ning's eyes blazed with killing intent: "Courting death!"

The warblade in his hand transformed into a crimson-gold lightning bolt, instantly unleashing nine streaks of blade light!

"Skyburner, Ninefold!"

Six-Blade King frantically raised his last three black blades to block, but saw the nine blade lights merge into one midair, forming a crimson-gold pillar of light piercing heaven and earth!

"Hahaha—I'll be waiting for you to join me!!"

"Boom!!!"

The blade light pierced through the Six-Blade King's Divine Body, and terrifying energy erupted within it, completely annihilating what remained of its Divine Body!

The Six-Blade King's body froze midair, its six compound eyes filled with unwillingness and venomous hatred: "You... will... be buried with me..."

Before its words faded, its Divine Body shattered inch by inch like broken porcelain, ultimately dissolving into countless specks of light that vanished into the void.

Yan Ning sheathed his blade and stood coldly, staring at the place where the Six-Blade King had fallen: "Buried with me? With those small fry?"

With a thought, he claimed the Six-Blade King's legacy.

At the same time, the entire Star Tower erupted!

In a certain lava space on the second floor of the Star Tower, three Mechanical Clan Kings stopped in their tracks simultaneously.

"A domain-type heavy treasure?"

The leading Mechanical Clan King's eyes flashed with a frenzy of data streams.

"Human Demon Flame King!"

On the third floor, in a glacial forbidden zone, five Demon Clan Kings were besieging a Mechanical Clan powerhouse.

Upon receiving the news, they abandoned their target without hesitation and turned away as one.

"Hahaha, a domain-type heavy treasure! This is a huge score!"

Wasting time on this Mechanical Clan member was no longer worth it; the domain-type heavy treasure was far more important!

In the core area of the seventh floor, a Zerg Mother Queen shrouded in black mist let out a few seductive laughs.

"A domain-type heavy treasure, hehehe. Little one, I wonder... if you can hold onto it?"

Even within the human camp, several King-level powerhouses flashed greed in their eyes.

"Demon Flame King? Never heard of that name."

"Who cares who he is—a domain-type heavy treasure isn't something an ordinary King deserves to own!"

"He's actually a Peak King powerhouse!"

Yan Ning stood in the forbidden zone space. Though he couldn't hear these discussions, he could imagine the commotion stirring within the Star Tower.

A cold smirk curled at the corner of his mouth: "Come on, all of you, come!"

"Your lives will be just the thing to help me complete my mission."

Yan Ning swept his gaze around, his divine sense spreading like a tide, carefully scanning every corner of this forbidden zone space.

He rose and searched again more thoroughly.

"It seems this space has no other alien races for now."

He muttered to himself, his fingers lightly tracing the edge of his battle blade.

"Time to move on to the next place."

He took out the purple crystal gifted by the Wheel Demon King and probed his divine sense into it.

A three-dimensional map of the first three floors of the Star Tower immediately unfolded in his mind, countless light points marking the connection nodes of each forbidden zone space.

"Northwest direction—there's a space node there."

Yan Ning put away the crystal, his form transforming into a streak of crimson-gold light as he sped toward the target direction.

Soon, a distorted spatial barrier came into view.

The barrier rippled like water, its surface flowing with multicolored light—it was the node leading to the next forbidden zone space.

Yan Ning stepped through.

The moment he crossed the spatial barrier, a familiar dizziness washed over him. When his vision cleared, the scene before him was completely different.

This was an underground cavern filled with purple crystals. Countless prismatic crystal clusters extended from the ground and ceiling, emitting a faint purple glow.

"Hm? This space is quite peculiar."

He continued his exploration.

One forbidden zone space after another.

Yan Ning's figure shuttled through the Star Tower, leaving a trail of forbidden zones behind him.

But four consecutive forbidden zone spaces were completely empty.

"Strange."

Yan Ning stood in a desert-like forbidden zone space, his brow slightly furrowed.

"By all logic, once the news spread, plenty of alien races should have come looking for me. Why can't I find any?"
