"Explode!!!" The enormous azure divine bird immediately detonated its Immortal Divine Body as soon as it broke free from the suppression and control.

"Boom!"

The terrifying shockwave instantly spread in all directions, sweeping across the entire Forbidden Space. The endless golden desert was instantly reduced to dust, but Luo Ao and King Moran were completely unharmed.

"Failed?" Luo Ao stood in mid-air, then looked at the treasures left behind after the fall of the Azure Feather King, and said regretfully, "Indeed, controlling a powerful Immortal Servant of the King Rank is very difficult; both strength and luck are indispensable."

After successfully Soul Control Thousand Refinements King's soul, Luo Ao and Moran worked together to take down more than ten King Rank experts in succession. The weakest of these people was at the Peak King, and most of them were at the King Rank Limit.

However, perhaps their luck had run out, as they failed to succeed in thirteen consecutive operations.

"Master, it's all Moran's fault for being useless." Seeing the operation fail again, Moran immediately looked guilty. If her Soul Illusion techniques were more powerful, she might have been able to control the Azure Feather King just now.

"It's alright, it's not your fault. After all, you're not a master of Soul Attack." Luo Ao shook his head, then examined the treasures left behind by the Azure Feather King.

He currently only has two servants under his command. One of them, Thousand Refinements King, is a close-combat martial artist, and his skills in Soul Control are even less impressive. Therefore, he can only rely on King Moran to control others' souls.

In these dozen or so operations, either the opponent retained enough divine bodies that King Moran couldn't directly break through their soul defenses, or the opponent's will was strong enough to break free from the soul's influence at the crucial moment and then choose to self-destruct.

Azure Feather King was almost controlled like that just now.

"Hmm, this is... the North Wind Wings!" While examining the treasures left behind by the Azure Feather King, Luo Ao was pleasantly surprised to find that the azure wings treasure was actually a True Treasure!

"Hmm, this is a treasure for escaping and protecting oneself, related to the Wind Origin Law and Time Origin Law." Wing-type treasures are generally used for escaping. However, once these North Wind Wings are folded up and placed in front of the body, they can also function as a defensive True Treasure. It can be considered a very good True Treasure.

"With my current level of understanding of the Time Law, I am not yet able to truly unleash the full power of these wings. It seems necessary to work on my understanding of the Time Law." Luo Ao was well aware of the advantages of World Lord Level in comprehending the Laws, so he naturally wanted to comprehend the other Laws to a high level before achieving Immortal.

However, he will focus most of his energy on the Space Laws and the 'fire and void' Path of the Beast God at this time. Once he has fully comprehended the Space Laws, he will begin to refine the Time Law.

"Congratulations, Master, on acquiring a True Treasure!" King Moran was overjoyed for his master when he learned that Azure Feather King's wings were a True Treasure.

"I can't really use it much right now, so I can only use it as a defensive treasure." His movement technique wasn't actually weak, but it was based on Space Laws, which didn't match the North Wind Wings.

Of course, even as a defensive True Treasure, it's quite good. After all, this wing-type treasure doesn't conflict with the King Armor; they can be used together.

With the dual defense of the North Wind Wings and the King Armor, his survivability will naturally become stronger!

"Master, if you want to capture a large number of servants, it's best to first control a powerful soul master. Those soul masters have spent countless years researching illusion techniques and methods of controlling souls; their understanding of souls is incredibly profound."

"Once our master enslaves a soul-type master, our success rate will increase significantly." Seeing that things weren't going smoothly, King Moran immediately offered Luo Ao a helpful suggestion.

"I understand that too, but capturing a soul master is all about luck." Luo Ao knew that the soul defenses of those soul masters were stronger than the normal King Rank Limit expert. Unless he managed to kill the opponent while they were asleep, it would be difficult for Moran to control them.

"Alright, let's focus on dealing with these soul-type masters from now on." Luo Ao quickly agreed with Moran's suggestion.

"Yes, Master."

Luo Ao, leading the King Moran, has once again embarked on a brutal hunting expedition, but this time their priority targets are Soul Masters...

Their first encounter was with the Ghost Fox King of the Chimei Race, and their mission failed. However, the Ghost Fox King still had three King Rank servants under his command, and the treasures on the four of them were estimated to be around 160 billion Hunyuan Unit, so it was still a decent gain.

The second time was when she happened to encounter the Silk Thread King. This Silk Thread King was a terrifying master of the soul, with seven King Rank servants under her command. Her own strength, apart from her soul, was comparable to that of King Rank Limit expert at the limit.

The Silk Thread King Squad was a formidable force. However, upon encountering Luo Ao, she could only accept her misfortune. The entire Silk Thread Squad was wiped out, but the wealth she gained reached an astonishing 280 billion Hunyuan Unit.

The third time...

In eleven consecutive battles, nine of which involved choosing Peak King Soul Master as the target, all nine of these Peak King Soul Masters perished, failing to succeed even once.

Of the 11 enemies killed in these battles, 7 of them spread the message that the killer was the Asura King, and 4 others... died so quickly that the enemies didn't even have time to send out the message before they could struggle to their deaths.

Thus, according to outside intelligence, everyone knew that the ruthless Asura King was targeting Peak King soul masters, and that six soul masters had already been killed (the other three cases were not reported).

In addition, other non-soul-type masters who King Rank Limit power, such as the Golden Feather King and the Red Ghost King, also perished at the hands of the Asura King.

In a short period of time, the number of powerful individuals who died at the hands of the Asura King has reached an astonishing figure!

In the beginning, news of which powerful figures had fallen was circulated within each of the three major factions. Later, as the number of these falls increased, the three factions began exchanging information directly with each other, which revealed how many powerful figures had perished at the hands of the Asura King during this period.

Those soul masters at the Peak King, especially, were now feeling extremely threatened.

"This Asura King is truly terrifying. Six Peak King experts skilled in Soul Attack have all perished at his hands."

"Not only that, even powerful figures like the Azure Feather King and the Red Ghost King, who are at the pinnacle of the King Rank Limit, have no way to escape from him; encountering him means certain death!"

"I've long heard that this Asura King is incredibly powerful; he once killed the Mad Lion King and the Glacier King of the Demon Race race on the Yanji Continent. I didn't expect him to become even more ferocious after arriving at the Star Tower. I think we should leave the Star Tower for the time being!"

The Asura King, who unleashed a frenzied massacre, indeed terrified many powerful Alien Race races.

Before the Asura King arrived at the Star Tower, although Peak King and King Rank Limit experts did sometimes perish, they didn't die this frequently.

"The terrifying Asura King, the name ' Asura ' is truly well-deserved."

The name of the Asura King now resounds not only throughout the Yanji Continent and the Seventh Starfield Battlefield, but also among the powerful figures in other star domain battlefields, who know of this newly rising 'killing star'.

Luo Ao paid no attention to the rumors circulating about his achievements. He continued his hunt.

For him, enslaving and controlling his opponents was naturally the best option. If he couldn't control them, killing them would still promote the evolution of his Yan God Race Clone. Why not?

This was Luo Ao's seventeenth hunting expedition. In a Forbidden Space, in a huge lake that resembled a thunderous Purgatory, a lightning goddess who looked like a snake-man but seemed to be the daughter of thunder, with six fair arms and snow-white skin, lay quietly in the water.

"Looks like I'm in luck; I actually managed to kill this Dream Luo King and put him into a deep sleep." Luo Ao looked at the beautiful Snake Woman was motionless in the pool and directly used the Soul Enslavement Secret Art.

Dream Luo King was born into an ordinary race in the universe— the Naga Race, and she herself belonged to a branch of the race called the ' Thunder Naga '.

The Naga Race has a strong tradition in various schools of thought, including mentalists, warriors, and illusionists. Among them, Dream Luo King is an unparalleled genius of the Thunder Naga race, with astonishing skills in both close combat and Soul Illusion.

In terms of pure strength, Dream Luo King is second only to the Seven Sword King and the Talon King, the top experts in the Outer Domain Battlefield. The main difference between her and the Seven Sword King and others is in terms of True Treasure.

It can be said that if Dream Luo King could obtain a suitable True Treasure, he could become a super being like the Seven Sword King.

However, even such a super genius and a prodigy could not escape the fate of becoming Soul Slave.

"Awaken!" After enslaving Dream Luo King, Luo Ao immediately used a precious treasure once again to quickly awaken Dream Luo King.

After awakening in the seven-colored Nutrient Pod, the beautiful Snake Woman with six arms swam to Luo Ao's side. Her gaze towards Luo Ao was filled with reverence from the depths of her soul. At this moment, Luo Ao was the person she felt closest to. She immediately prostrated herself and said respectfully, " Mengluo greets Master."

"Yes, get up." Luo Ao nodded with a smile. " Mengluo."

Seeing this, King Moran felt somewhat uncomfortable for some reason, as if he felt that his status in his master's heart had diminished considerably.

Despite her low spirits, she still offered her congratulations. "Congratulations, Master, on acquiring the Dream Luo King."

Dream Luo King's strength is among the top tier of those at the King Rank Limit, and he is also extremely proficient in Soul Illusion techniques. His methods of enslaving and controlling enemies are far superior to hers.

"It wasn't easy, it wasn't easy at all! So much time and effort spent, but we finally succeeded!" Luo Ao laughed heartily. "With Mengluo... acquiring servants will be much easier from now on."

Dream Luo King already has a track record of controlling Peak King experts. If Luo Ao were to cripple an enemy and then allow her to launch a soul attack, even King Rank Limit expert would likely find it difficult to withstand this combination of attacks.

With Dream Luo King around, his chances of successfully controlling the servants were much higher.

" Mengluo, you should recover your strength quickly."

Luo Ao took out some treasures he had obtained earlier that would help restore his divine body and gave them to Dream Luo King. After all, he had killed many powerful King Rank before, and many of those powerful figures had left behind treasures that could restore Immortal Divine Body.

At this moment, however, Luo Ao used it for ' Dream Luo King '.

Dream Luo King regains his full power, he will be an absolutely terrifying master of souls.

Soon, Dream Luo King regained his strength, and the three of them immediately set to work again.

Everything went exactly as Luo Ao had planned. With the Soul Master Dream Luo King, their hunting efficiency was significantly higher.

Before Dream Luo King became his helper, he often abandoned the hunt and chose to kill the prey because he didn't control the force of his attacks well.

With Dream Luo King by your side, even if your enemy has only lost half their strength, they could still be directly enslaved by Dream Luo King.

In this way, Luo Ao's hunting success rate naturally increased significantly.

However, as the saying goes, nothing stays hidden forever. His actions naturally frightened many powerful figures in the Star Tower, causing panic among them, and making it difficult to find suitable targets later on.

However, by this point in time, the hunting results had been quite impressive.

At this moment, the number of powerful figures under Luo Ao's command has increased from just three at the beginning to a full seven!

Moreover, these seven are only those at or above the Peak King strength. Dream Luo King already controlled quite a few beings with strength below the High King.

"Master, it's becoming increasingly difficult to encounter powerful individuals in the Star Tower. Why don't we go to the Tianhuang Continent and continue hunting?" The capable-sounding Dream Luo King was now offering a new suggestion.

The Tianhuang Continent is the most advanced battle zone in the Fifth Starfield Battlefield, and the number of powerful Alien Race races there is equally astonishing, not much less than that of the Star Tower.

"Forget it, it's best to stop while you're ahead. Making another move is too risky." He had already killed quite a few powerful individuals to obtain these seven Soul Slave, and if he continued this madness, he would easily incur the wrath of the masses.

Although his current behavior has already provoked widespread anger.

In fact, the other three factions have already begun to take action.

Besides top powerhouses like the Demon Race's Talon King and the Zerg's Mother Emperor Nan Cheng searching for him everywhere, even many super powerhouses who had previously retired from the Military Merit System have come to the Star Tower, ready to settle scores with him.

These people were all super strong individuals who once dominated an era in other factions. Each of them possessed strength comparable to that of the Talon King and others. Some of them were even true Invincible King kings, whose strength was no less than that of the True Yan King.
