The Lord of Darkness's voice trembled; this usually composed ruler of the universe could no longer control his expression.
His gaze was fixed on the stars, as if he wanted to confirm whether he had misheard.
For those who follow the path of laws, the path of divine power is inherently mysterious and unpredictable. And a gene with a power of ten thousand times is even more beyond their comprehension.
"Wow—"
After a brief silence, the entire hall erupted in cheers!
"My God!"
"Ten thousand times the gene!"
"Doesn't this mean that the Star Palace Master's current strength..."
Master Peng was so excited that he trembled all over. He slammed his hand on the table and stood up abruptly: "Our human race will be eternal!"
Eternity! These two words carry immense weight. In the history of the cosmic sea, no race has ever been able to guarantee its eternal existence. But at this moment, everyone sees hope.
No, not hope, that's absolute!
They originally thought that Xingchen was a breakthrough of the third level of the divine power path, but now it seems...
They underestimated the stars.
Having a gene count 100,000 times higher, surviving the cycle of reincarnation is no simple matter.
The Lord of Chaos City took a deep breath, barely suppressing the shock in his heart. He stepped forward and solemnly bowed to the stars: "Stars, this is a blessing for the human race."
Xingchen smiled slightly and raised her hand in a gesture of support: "Teacher, there's no need for that."
The Lord of Chaos City smiled and nodded. Although he was Xingchen's teacher, Xingchen was now powerful enough for everyone to look up to.
It even surpassed the original ancestor.
Even if he is a teacher, he must still show sufficient respect at this moment.
At this moment, the Lord of the Desolate Mirror suddenly suggested, "Star, now that you are a true god and have reached such a level, do you need a new title?"
In the primordial universe, powerful beings often changed their titles after breaking through to the level of True God.
For example, the founder of the giant axe was originally called the Great Axe Master or the Lord of the Giant Axe.
Everyone nodded after hearing this.
"Yup!"
"A 100,000-fold increase in gene density—this achievement deserves a fitting title!"
The Lord of Dragons excitedly suggested, "How about we call him 'Lord of Eternity'?"
"That's too tacky."
The Lord of Ice Peaks shook his head.
"I think calling him 'Primordial True God' would be more appropriate."
Everyone started discussing it animatedly, creating a lively atmosphere.
Xingchen watched this scene with a hint of a smile in her eyes.
He gently raised his hand, and the hall immediately fell silent.
"No need."
His voice was soft, yet it reached everyone's ears clearly.
"I still prefer the original title—Lord of the Star Palace, or Lord of the Galaxy."
For the stars, titles are nothing but empty names.
Moreover, the word "lord" itself implies something extraordinary.
The Chaos City Lord nodded knowingly: "Very well, a title is just a code name. With Xingchen's current strength, what he is called is no longer important."
"That's right!"
"Come on, let's have a banquet to celebrate the breakthrough of the Star Realm!"
Master Peng laughed and waved his hand, and instantly countless delicacies and fine wines appeared out of thin air, turning the entire hall into a sea of joy.
Humanity has not experienced such pure joy in far too long. The last time such a grand celebration was in our primordial era.
Xingchen smiled as she accepted the wine glass, her gaze sweeping over the excited faces.
Let's not tell them about the Beast of the Realm yet.
He took a small sip of wine, thinking to himself.
In the eyes of the current stars, the crisis of the World Beasts is no longer a concern.
Instead of making them live in fear at this time, we should let them enjoy this rare moment of celebration.
Let's tell them after the celebration is over.
"Xingchen, don't just stand there!"
The Lord of Chaos City smiled and raised his cup: "You can't skip drinking today!"
Xingchen snapped out of her daze and smiled, "Alright, let's drink until we drop!"
Laughter echoed throughout the main hall for a long time.
I... should have arrived at the Dark Land by now, right?
Just as humanity was raising their glasses in celebration, a hunt that would reshape the course of the cosmic ocean was quietly unfolding in the shadows.
Chapter 289 Re-entering the Dark Land
The Eternal Ship silently passed through the border of the Dark Land, its gray halo blending perfectly into the eternal darkness.
Xingchen stood in the control room, observing the surrounding environment through the simulated exterior view.
In this dimly lit place, lies the lair of the Beast Realm. There is no light, no sound; even the concept of space itself becomes blurred. Only the occasional flash of a dark shadow testifies to the terrifying presence lurking within this deathly silence.
"Master, we are here."
Nag's two heads warily surveyed their surroundings, their single crimson eye flashing with excitement and tension.
Even with the armor disguised, returning to this familiar killing ground still evoked an instinctive excitement and trembling.
He is now a second-tier world beast, which is considered one of the most powerful among all world beasts.
Now, with the help of his master, Xingchen, his chances of becoming the ultimate king have greatly increased.
Xingchen nodded slightly: "Let's begin."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure suddenly changed. His skin turned pitch black, a destructive mist rose from his body, his head split into two, and his blood-red single eye slowly opened.
Formless and shapeless! The heaven-defying power granted by a hundred thousand times the genetic bonus allowed the stars to perfectly simulate the appearance and aura of the Beast of Realm.
At this moment, he was just like a true second-tier world beast!
Aside from lacking the talents of a Beast of the Realm, their auras and other aspects are completely identical.
This kind of image, at least, won't be discovered too quickly.
"Sensitize where there are enough Beasts."
The voice of the stars is transmitted through mental fluctuations.
"Second-order is best."
Nag closed his eyes, and the unique perception ability of the World Beast spread out.
A moment later, it suddenly opened its eyes and pointed in a certain direction: "This way! Seven second-tier world beasts are fighting each other!"
A cold smile curved Xingchen's lips: "Very well, let's go."
Swish!
Two dark figures silently slipped out of the Ark of Eternity and disappeared into the darkness.
……
Deep within the dimly lit land, in a distorted space.
Seven identical world beasts are engaged in a frenzied battle.
They can also transform into whatever form they like to fight.
Some of them resembled giant pythons, while others were like multi-legged monsters, but without exception, they all exuded a terrifying aura of destruction.
"Mosa! You despicable scum!"
A beast roared, its tail torn in half, black blood dripping continuously.
The beast known as Mosa grinned maliciously.
"Survival of the fittest, that's our law!"
There are no rules in the battles between the Beasts of the Realm.
Sneak attacks, sieges, betrayals—all are for the purpose of devouring one's own kind and evolving into a king.
Just as the battle was raging, two dark figures silently approached.
“Master, these are them.”
Nag's mental fluctuations were tinged with bloodthirsty excitement.
"The one on the far left is the most seriously injured, let's deal with it first!"
Xingchen's gaze locked onto its target, which was currently struggling to withstand the combined attack of two world beasts.
Xingchen wasn't going to follow the plan; he launched a sneak attack, even against just a few second-tier world beasts.
Now, unless a sixth-tier world beast suddenly appears in the world beast clan, no world beast can threaten him!
"Kill them directly! Nag, you prepare to reap the kills and devour them. I'll kill them."
"Yes, Master!"
A cold glint flashed in Xingchen's eyes, and he suddenly opened his right hand, a silver-gray chain moving in his palm as if it were alive.
"go with!"
