Swallowing the Stars: Speedrun with Card Draws, Dominating Destiny

Chapter 68 Scorpion Clan

Comparable to a Marquis-level Immortal, and killing a Marquis-level Immortal are two different concepts.

According to the division of the virtual universe's bridge to heaven, levels 10-14 are for Immortal Army Lords, and levels 15-17 are for Marquises.

Lin Yi comprehended the laws of fire and space and passed through the 17th level of the Bridge to Heaven.

In terms of understanding the laws, he is considered to be at the advanced level of the Marquis rank. Among the powerful individuals who can kill Marquis Immortals, he can only be considered to be average, not a hindrance.

The truly powerful techniques are the "Reincarnation Sword Manual" and the "Life-Eating Vine".

After the Life-Eating Vine breaks through to the Realm Lord level and can coexist, Lin Yi can use its power.

Originally a plant life form capable of growing to the peak of kingship, and primarily a combat-oriented one at that, its enormous body endowed it with power dozens of times greater than others of its level.

After being tempered by the Bodhi Tree, its potential was greatly enhanced, giving it a hundred times the power of others of the same level. This also gave it the initial ability to fight across levels, allowing a World Lord to fight against an Immortal Military Lord.

Not long ago, it used the Spirit Pill to greatly enhance the plant's life level, a leapfrog improvement. Although it does not have the super high life gene multiplier of the World Tree, it still has a thousand times the power of the same level. Its future growth potential will even exceed that of the World Tree.

Lin Yi currently possesses power equivalent to 1000 times that of a Realm Lord. Calculating the 10-fold amplitude of the first transformation of the "Reincarnation Sword Manual," his burst of power can reach 10,000 times that of a Realm Lord. In terms of power level alone, he has reached the threshold of becoming a King.

With the 'Divine Sword', which is comparable to a great treasure, I have a chance to kill even the most ordinary Marquis Immortal.

Even if the clone of the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones only possesses 50% of the power of the original body's various treasures, it is still comparable to most Marquis Immortals. In a three-on-one fight, it would have a good chance of killing an ordinary Marquis Immortal.

If the "Reincarnation Sword Manual" makes a breakthrough and reaches 25 times the amplitude of the second transformation, the clone can reliably kill the Marquis Immortal.

Of course, the Divine Sword wouldn't be used lightly. If a Realm Lord dared to reveal that he possessed such a powerful treasure, all the Kings in the entire Extraterrestrial Battlefield would go crazy.

Since clones are not afraid of death, it's best not to easily cause trouble.

"My cultivation will mainly focus on two aspects: my main body will stay in Chaos City to comprehend the fundamental laws, while my clones will fight on the battlefield outside the realm to cultivate the 'Sword Manual of Reincarnation'."

……

Three days passed in the blink of an eye during cultivation.

Lin Yi finally arrived at the 'Yihe Starfield', a place suitable for his hunting!

The triangular spaceship crashed through fragments of stars and other spaceship debris, slowly entering this star field.

Lin Yi also commanded the spaceship's artificial intelligence, "Activate the detection instruments! Search for targets, lock onto the Realm Lord and the Military Lord Immortal!"

"Yes, Master, the spaceship's detection instruments are activated!"

Lin Yi's detection equipment was carefully selected from the treasure trove of the Virtual Universe Company, costing millions of points. It is generally only equipped by immortal gods at the King level or above.

In the battlefield of the Yihe Starfield, even immortal gods and marquises rarely appear, let alone kings. Therefore, Lin Yi's detection equipment is absolutely top-of-the-line in this battlefield. Enemies find it difficult to evade his detection, and even more difficult to detect him.

The detection instruments instantly covered a range of one billion kilometers, and all information within this range was displayed on the spacecraft's central control screen.

"Three peak Realm Lords have been discovered!" Lin Yi looked at the three figures on the central control panel.

They were two phantoms, each over a hundred meters tall, resembling scorpions in human form, covered in dark brown scales. Their upper bodies had eight pairs of arms, each with a ferocious claw-like phantom at its tip.

"They are the 'Scorpion Clan,' a subordinate race of the demon race!"

Lin Yi became interested in the three realm lords. His main body, which was meditating on the rooftop of Chaos City, withdrew from its cultivation state and began to observe them through the soul connection of his clone.

He had only been cultivating for a short time and had never seen any alien races, let alone their realm lords, so he was naturally curious.

"Get close and take them down." The triangular spaceship drew a long arc in the starry sky, trailing a long tail of flame, heading straight for the Demon Scorpion Clan Realm Lord, 300 million kilometers away.

……

Three Demon Scorpion Clan Realm Lords are resting on a shattered planet.

"Brother, that human team is really arrogant. One realm lord leading ten domain lords dares to roam the Yihe Starfield. They're courting death." A slightly smaller demon scorpion realm lord laughed, his scales swaying, indicating he was in a good mood.

The Scorpion Clan Realm Lord, known as the Big Brother, happily counted the spoils of war. "Not bad. A small team led by a Realm Lord dared to come to the Yihe Starfield, which was tantamount to suicide. However, we got off easy. After disposing of these spoils, they will be worth at least 1 Alliance Demon Coin."

"Yes, humans occupy the most fertile territory in the original universe, making them much richer than our demon race," said another Demon Scorpion Clan Realm Lord.

The combined territories of the four dominant races—humans, demons, machines, and insectoids—are only a small fraction of the original universe. The vast majority of the universe is occupied by countless other races.

Of course, the territories occupied by the four top races are absolutely the most precious areas in the entire primordial universe, and also the areas most likely to give birth to and nurture geniuses.

Of the territories inhabited by the four major ethnic groups, the human territory is the most prosperous.

All the powerful warriors fighting in the extraterrestrial battlefield are divided into four major factions. Regardless of whether they are subordinate races of humanity or alien races that have paid a huge price to enter the extraterrestrial battlefield as members of the human faction to hone their skills, they are all considered to be on the human side.

Similarly, the demon race is also like this.

The Scorpion Clan is a subordinate race of the Demon Clan.

"Not good, get out of the way!" The leader of the Scorpion Clan suddenly became alert, and his claws exerted force with his feet, causing him to retreat rapidly away from the star fragment.

"Boom!"

The next instant, a milky white beam of light blasted towards them; it was the attack from the F-class spaceship's main cannon.

The star fragments were blasted into thousands upon thousands of smaller fragments, which scattered across the starry sky like meteorites.

The leader of the Scorpion Clan dodged quickly, but was thrown far away by the energy impact and was unharmed.

The other two Demon Scorpion Clan Realm Lords weren't so lucky. Their reactions were a step behind, and they only had time to activate the world projection, let the Force flow, and urge their own Force equipment to withstand the attack.

The F-class spaceship's main cannon, capable of threatening immortal life, was clearly not easy to withstand. The two Scorpion Clan Realm Lords barely survived thanks to the weakening effect of their Force equipment and their own scale armor, but their bodies were severely injured, and their strength was reduced to less than one-tenth.

"Run!" The three Demon Scorpion Clan Realm Lords, without communicating, all chose to scatter and flee.

These were all veterans who had been venturing into the outer battlefields for many years; they weren't fools. From the power of the main cannon's attack just now, they instantly determined that it was an F-class spaceship. Possessing an F-class spaceship meant that the opponent was at least a military lord-level immortal powerhouse, someone they couldn't possibly contend with.

"Trying to run away? Isn't that a bit too naive?"

Three figures slowly appeared, forming a triangle, surrounding the three realm lords.

"Humans, realm lords?!"

The leader of the Scorpion Clan was taken aback at first, then a greedy look appeared in his pair of brown vertical pupils.

I thought that someone with an F-class spaceship was an immortal enemy, but it turns out they were just a human world lord.

Then... is it permissible to plunder it?
