Chapter 649: Chapter 488: The Greatest Thief, It’s Your Turn to Die.
The creature was awe-inspiring beyond belief.
Although in size, compared to the Planet Eater, it was like an ant,
its offensive was vast beyond imagination.
“How is this possible?”
The Planet Eater roared, its mind seemingly frozen, unable to comprehend the situation before it.
How could there be a creature in this world that it feared!
This fear was purely instinctive, not because the opponent was strong.
It felt like the other’s bloodline inherently suppressed it.
But how could that be? Its bloodline descended from the ancient Star Swallowers, beings capable of devouring entire starry skies.
They, the Planet Eaters, were destined to become Extreme Kings once they reached maturity!
In ancient times, they might not have been much, but in the present, they were unreasonably powerful.
“I am the miracle, before me, nothing is impossible.”
Xu Gu’s voice resounded like the whispers of an ancient deity.
The attack of the creature had already landed.
At this moment, all eyes were on it.
All the strong could not describe the sight before them.
Xu Gu seemed like an immortal king, the ruler of the entire starry universe.
Across the heavens and cosmos, he alone reigned supreme.
The myriad worlds bowed in submission.
The creature was both his War General and his steed.
Wherever it passed, all crumbled, and space and time were utterly destroyed, bringing endless darkness.
Various Rule Authorities were circulating.
Everyone’s pupils shrank, for what this represented was too astounding.
In battle, invoking the power of Rule Authorities usually required mastery or control of a particular Rule Authority.
Thus, when fighting, as the Rule Authorities circulated around them or above their heads, its strength aside, the quantity was not much.
Four or five streams were considered many!
Yet, the Rule Authorities behind this creature seemed disproportionately numerous!
Dense and endless!
This was simply unbelievable!
Only then did they realize, before Xu Gu, everything they thought they knew was no longer true.
“What exactly is your identity?”
The Planet Eater was on the verge of madness, its breath quickened under the creature’s oppression, its heart heavy. Even at full strength, it might not match the creature, and now it could only unleash eighty percent of its power.
The suppression was too potent!
It was so strong that it terrified him.
“Of course, we are humans.”
Xu Gu looked down on the Planet Eater, his tone indifferent.
“Impossible, though ancient humans were indeed glorious, they have long perished, and the current humans are as weak as ants.” The Planet Eater struggled against the creature’s attack.
After exchanging only a few moves, its flesh was shattered, and its life force was quickly draining away.
It was fortunate that its size was large enough to hold out until now and still had the strength to converse with Xu Gu, otherwise, it would have perished long ago.
As it spoke, it roared and howled.
All its flesh began to burn rapidly, countless chains of spatial gods accompanying thunderbolts descended, yet they could not lock onto the creature.
The creature moved like a beam of light, at extreme speed.
Xu Gu watched with a faint mocking look in his eyes, as if watching a clown, he regarded the Planet Eater:
“Who dares claim humans are weak? They simply had not adapted to the previous versions. Soon, the entire universe will witness the power of the Human Clan.”
Indeed, for a period a thousand years ago, the Human Clan experienced an age of declining magic, generally very weak.
But quickly, the Yang God and others stood up.
They exiled the gods of the heavens.
Who dares say the Human Clan is weak?
After the Yang God and others perished, the Human Clan emerged from a tiny corner, entered the universe, and established realms everywhere, their influence expanding until they could confront the Mechanical Sea head-on.
It only took a thousand years.
Is this not powerful?
Furthermore, under Xu Gu’s leadership, the Human Clan would stride toward ultimate glory and achieve eternal dominion.
Under such circumstances, anyone who still dared call the Human Clan weak, or as weak as ants, was surely not right in the head.
“Absurd!” The Planet Eater couldn’t understand Xu Gu’s words, nor did it agree with Xu Gu’s statements.
With the Mechanical Sea present, the Human Clan could only face destruction.
At this point, it no longer wanted to fight and was ready to flee.
Continuing the fight would indeed lead to death.
Even with its tough skin and flesh, it couldn’t withstand being massacred by the creature continuously!
“Escape!”
Without hesitation, the Planet Eater’s body shrank dramatically, and the burning force of its body transformed entirely into the motive power to escape, flying into the deep space.
It initially intended to perform a reversal ritual return, but it was too cumbersome.
It had no time.
“Trying to leave? How is that possible. I haven’t yet tasted the flavor of Ancient Beasts.” Xu Gu said casually, as if for him, obliterating a peak king that could be called a giant in the universe was a matter of fact, like killing a chicken.
He raised his hand, and the Black Divine Ring unfolded, like a black hole expanded two-dimensionally in front of the Planet Eater, infinitely expanding, blocking its path.
From within the two-dimensional black hole, a flare-like Divine Flames, as if burning since the creation of the universe, shot out violently.
It was Xu Gu’s Field Divine Artifact—Human Purgatory.
However, it had now been enhanced to a 3-star level.
Xu Gu, who had fought all the way to the end, naturally didn’t lack these Divine Points.
The terrifying high temperature released annihilated a part of the universe in an instant!
The Planet Eater, when its path was blocked, originally wanted to rage and roar but then couldn’t even let out a cry, as its body and consciousness were both annihilated in the scorching light.
Not a speck of ash remained.
And so, an Extreme King level Planet Eater fell!
“What an idiot.”
Xu Gu chuckled coldly.
He originally could exchange some blows with the Planet Eater.
Now, the Planet Eater, heavily wounded by the creature, was forced to burn itself for escape, its strength plummeting.
Blocking it became all too easy for him.
“I initially planned to make you my Battle Pet, for the Human Clan seniors to use, but you were too foolish.” Xu Gu shook his head. Bringing it back might even cause trouble.
[Successfully killed a half-star Extreme King level Planet Eater!]
[Obtained Divine Points: 1800]
Xu Gu raised an eyebrow slightly.
The gains were impressive.
At the same time, Xu Gu gestured with a hand.
The treasures dropped by the Planet Eater fell into Xu Gu’s hand.
[Dao · Star Core!]
[3-Star Divine-level]
[A mighty Star Core accumulated through devouring life-inhabited planets, containing extremely terrifying power related to Dao-type Rule Authorities.]
[Wearing it, or refining it into a component, can increase the user’s energy recovery speed. If absorbed and refined, there is a small probability of comprehending Supreme Authority—Dao! Or other Dao-type Rule Authorities. It can also greatly enhance the purity of Dao-type Rule Authorities.]
“As expected.” Xu Gu glanced at the description of the Dao · Star Core, a satisfied smile playing at his lips.
Right now, what he lacked was a treasure to enhance the purity of Rule Authorities.
However, Xu Gu did not absorb it directly.
Instead, his eyes grew cold, and with a flash of his blade, he slashed at a point in the air.
“First thief, now it’s your turn to die.”
