Chapter 2532 - 2500: The Seed of Greed

Chapter 2532: Chapter 2500: The Seed of Greed

Another few months have passed.

Since Ning Wangyang and the Netherworld emerged from retreat. The entire Starry Universe’s situation has shifted.

Currently, there are three chaos zones within the Starry Universe. The black mist spreads out from these zones.

Originally, these chaos zones were guarded by Saint Yilin, Sovereign King Dao Saint, Eternal Path Saint, Jin Lun Saint Daoist, and other Dao Saints. As the black mist spreads, the power of the Dao Saints to suppress it has started to decline.

At this time, Ning Wangyang and the Netherworld’s return has had a significant impact on the defensive battle. Ning Wangyang and the Netherworld separately rushed to the defensive areas of the other two chaos zones, ensuring each chaos zone is guarded by multiple Dao Saints.

Li Chen and Tai Chu are responsible for the area where Li Chen is currently located, also the most severely affected region by the black mist.

To Li Chen’s amazement, with their persistence and effort, the once rampant black mist began to show signs of weakening. The previously intensifying black mist finally showed signs of retreat, and recently, its spread has visibly diminished, making everyone in the Starry Universe excited and thrilled.

This is a victory for the Starry Universe, a victory for everyone.

This is the result of the effort of all Starry Universe citizens. Feeling the reduction of the Breath of World Destruction between Heaven and Earth, Li Chen finally began to slowly relax his unease.

He doesn’t hope for the World-Destroying Beast to be directly driven back. He only hopes to delay some time, delay until more powerful beings emerge throughout the Starry Universe. Delay until he ascends to the Creation Realm, when finally confronting the World-Destroying Beast head-on and eliminating this eternal threat to the Starry Universe.

Although the black mist is temporarily suppressed, the Starry Universe remains vigilant, with countless strong individuals stationed daily on the stone platforms of the three defensive zones, constantly observing the aura within the chaos zones.

And a group of Dao Saints also took on patrol duties. A new cosmic order around the chaos zones has been established, and it seems the Starry Sky has escaped this calamity.

At this moment, deep in the land of chaos, a voice was growling.

"No... Damn it!! Starry Universe scoundrels! I need power... I need power!"

"You can’t suppress me.... Hehehe..."

----

Starry Universe, Third Chaos Zone.

The Third Chaos Zone is also located in the marginal space of the Starry Universe. Responsible for guarding this place are Li Haoheng and the Sovereign King Dao Saint and Jin Lun Saint Daoist.

After their long efforts, the Third Chaos Zone is now stabilizing.

Today’s routine patrol is handled by the Sovereign King Dao Saint and Jin Lun Saint Daoist. The two are enveloped in True Yuan, flying among the starry sky.

However, due to this place’s proximity to the marginal space, the limitation on True Yuan is very severe. Even though they are Dao Saints, they can still feel a sense of oppression.

"Senior Venerable King, what exactly is that black mist?" asked Jin Lun Saint Daoist, standing behind the Sovereign King, touching his bald head.

The Sovereign King Dao Saint thought for a moment, "I heard from the Secular Taoist Friend once. This aura is related to both Doomsday Beast Soul and the World-Destroying Beast, seemingly used by them to absorb power! It’s absolutely evil and sinister; it must be stopped!"

As a junior, Jin Lun Saint Daoist has always had a good relationship with the Sovereign King Dao Saint. It can be said that the Sovereign King watched Jin Lun grow to this level step by step, and for Jin Lun to achieve Saint Cultivation, he couldn’t have done it without the Sovereign King’s guidance.

So in the eyes of outsiders, Jin Lun and the Sovereign King are basically master and disciple.

The two patrolled around the chaos zone without noticing any abnormalities. At this moment, the Sovereign King Dao Saint suddenly received a spatial transmission and burst out laughing after reading the message, "Haha, an old friend invited this old man for a drink. I’ll go ahead!"

With that, the Sovereign King turned and left directly. Jin Lun couldn’t help but murmur, "Senior Venerable King is something else. Always drinks without inviting me!"

Just as Jin Lun sighed and prepared to leave.

A shroud of black mist suddenly emerged from the nearby land of chaos. The mist wasn’t much, like a wisp of black smoke slowly approaching him.

Jin Lun frowned, "A slippery fish?"

With that, Jin Lun urgently unleashed his True Yuan throughout his body, but at this moment, the black mist seemed to have a consciousness, stopping in front of Jin Lun.

A voice softly came over, "Don’t rush to act...."

The voice was indistinguishable between male and female, extremely ethereal. And while Jin Lun was dazed, the black mist seemed to caress Jin Lun’s cheek like a woman’s jade hand.

The voice echoed again, "You’re also a Dao Saint....Why does the Secular Taoist Friend bask in glory and affection?"

Jin Lun quickly shook his head, "You shut up! Hong Chen Predecessor is the hero of the Starry Universe!"

"Hehe..." The voice was extremely alluring, like a power that could enchant the mind, "But.....if you’re strong enough..you too could be revered by the world...By then, Secular Taoist Friend would bow at your feet. The entire Starry Universe could be under your control...."

"You...don’t say anymore!" Jin Lun, in a union of body and mind, planned to expel the black mist.

But at this moment, a bright light flashed before his eyes, the surrounding starry sky faded away and transformed into a magnificent palace.

Inside the palace, numerous Starry Universe powerhouses stood on either side, including Li Chen and Lin Yi.

And he, sat upon the throne, overseeing the heroes.

"Great Jin Lun." Li Chen suddenly called out from the front of the crowd, and then everyone in the hall fell to the ground in utmost reverence.

The scene flashed again, this time to several different Star Continents. These continents seemed to be specially prepared paradises for him. One was filled with women, scantily dressed. Upon seeing him, countless beauties stripped themselves, revealing their jade-like bodies, kneeling before him, awaiting his pleasure.

Another flash of the scene, Jin Lun now arrived at the pinnacle of the Starry Universe. His body felt weightless, an unprecedented wondrous power filled him, as though everything was under his control.

With a wave of his hand, planets exploded one by one, turning to dust and disappearing, even space shifted because of him.

This wondrous sensation intoxicated him. He murmured, "Is this....power beyond the Founding Realm?"

Within one illusion after another, Jin Lun’s pupils slowly turned pitch black.

The surrounding black mist increased, pulling him into the pitch-black chaos zone.

The seed of greed quietly sowed at this moment.
