Chapter 332, Inscribing Array Patterns
The former territory of the Machine Race is now the territory of the Zerg Race. Deep within a vast technological divine kingdom in the spatial interlayer, in a forest formed by various mechanical creations, the Lord of the Nether Lotus controls a legion of Zerg warriors with the strength of top overlords under the Demon Realm. With a single combined attack, they tore apart the divine body of a cosmic overlord of the Machine Race and annihilated it.
The number of machine race's cosmic overlords has decreased again.
As one of the pinnacle races, the Zerg Queen, though somewhat disadvantaged against the soulless Machine Race powerhouses, was still the twenty-ninth Machine Race cosmic overlord to fall at the hands of numerous Zerg Queens. The number of Zerg Queens at the Universe Lord level was small, only fourteen, even fewer than the Crystal Race and Prison Race's Universe Lords by one or two. However, the Zerg's ability to occupy one of the most core territories relied not only on the Queen's Palace. Each of them, with the assistance of their Zerg legions, could at least exert third-tier strength, most were fourth-tier, and three Zerg Queens reached the pinnacle of fifth-tier strength.
The Lord of the Nether Lotus is one of the fifth-tier universe lords among the Zerg. The elite Zerg warriors bred in the Zerg hive are all top-tier universe overlords, and their combined attack is comparable to the power of a top-tier fourth-tier Zerg.
"Your Majesty, the Mechanical Race's cosmic overlord, the Mechanical Venerable, has been annihilated." In the core of the Zerg race, the avatar of the Lord of the Nether Lotus respectfully reported to the strongest member of the race on the throne.
"Good job. Now, leave the rest of the mechanical immortals and venerables to the other kids. You just need to stay here and oversee things." On the throne, the Zerg Queen looked down, her words filled with alluring charm.
The four best cosmic secret realms of the Machine Race were seized by the Human Race. There was nothing she could do; she simply couldn't defeat the three strongest beings.
However, there are still many second-tier secret realms, some of which have been occupied by the Zerg. One such secret realm is located in the cosmic kingdom region bordering the demon race's territory—formerly the mechanical race's territory. This secret realm is naturally at the core, but it has now been divided up.
A powerful Zerg Queen is needed to oversee things, and the Lord of the Nether Lotus is just right.
Similarly, in the demon race's territory bordering this cosmic kingdom, the demon race's top-tier fifth-order cosmic lord, the Lord of Annihilation, is one of the demon race's three fifth-order cosmic lords. The Lord of Annihilation recently annihilated over a dozen mechanical race cosmic overlords and is now stationed on the frontier.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" the Lord of the Nether Lotus replied respectfully. "Your Majesty, according to our intelligence, some of the mechanical race's cosmic overlords are hiding within the Ancestral God Cult. Should we assign Lan Tang to handle this matter?"
Lan Tang, a powerful figure among the Zerg Queens who followed the Path of the Beast God, successfully assassinated the high-ranking Ice King of the Demon Race in the Star Tower. However, one of Ice King's most precious treasures fell into the hands of the Shadow Blade King. After retiring from the extraterrestrial battlefield, she turned to cultivating the Path of the Beast God, joined the Ancestral God Sect, and reached the Venerable level more than 100,000 epochs ago. Now, she has cultivated the Path of the Beast God to the sixth level, possessing the strength of a cosmic overlord, and is one of the highest-ranking members of the Zerg within the Ancestral God Sect.
"They're planning to break through to the level of the Lord of the Universe and then take revenge. Of course, we can't let them have their way." On the throne, a soft and alluring aura emanated naturally. "Inform Shu and Lantang to annihilate those inheritors of the mechanical race in the Ancestral God Cult! Once those inheritors are dead, without the protection of the Beast God's Decree, the mechanical race in the palace will be killed by the Five-Colored Aurora Lake."
Shu was once one of the leaders of the Zerg faction in the ninth battlefield of the extraterrestrial battlefield. Now, she is the strongest cosmic overlord below the two top Zerg overlords, and her status is even higher than Lan Tang's. Even the Zerg Queen thinks highly of her, believing that she has the potential to become the ruler of the universe in the future.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Meanwhile, the two demon ancestors of the demon race also issued orders to surround and kill the mechanical race's inheritors hiding in the Ancestral God Sect. During this period, any mechanical race powerhouse who appeared in the secret realm, whether immortal or venerable, was watched by powerhouses of the same level, who then called on their allies to surround and kill them.
Even some powerful individuals from those powerful clans that were not part of the three major clans or their vassals participated.
The wolf pack's encirclement and hunt is now a foregone conclusion.
More information was leaked by the three races, and astute individuals, after synthesizing this information, discovered that the Mechanical Race, once one of the most powerful races, now only has two top overlords remaining, along with about twenty ordinary overlords. As for the Mechanical Race members who are either immortals or not even immortals, their numbers are impossible to count.
At the level of tribal warfare, those below the Immortal realm don't even qualify to participate.
A once-powerful race seems poised to vanish into the primordial universe in the blink of an eye.
In the cosmic vessel, within the Fiery Ice Domain, Huang's clone in the Azure Cloud Palace looked down at the endless, dark swamp below. Within a ten-light-year radius, the aura of a supreme treasure entered a spatial node.
The clouds and mist spread out, and the control of the Azure Cloud Palace vanished in a flash, instantly teleporting to that node. With a flick of divine power, a piece of jet-black armor was stored in the World Ring.
Then he teleported away and left the place.
Inside the Bixiao Palace, after examining the jet-black armor, a satisfied glint flashed in its enormous single eye.
Although it's not the ultimate treasure, it's still considered one of the best among the pinnacle treasure armors, even better than the armor used by Li Yan's clone.
However, it's not fire-attribute, so it's not a perfect match for Li Yan's clone. It could be given to the Dark Demon God, though, since his natal array plate is an illusion-type primordial material, and his armor isn't as good as this one.
After experiencing a great disaster, the treasures that emerged in the Flame Ice Domain were of significantly better quality. After all, the lower-quality ones had been almost completely destroyed. Huang's clone even picked up some fragments of the destroyed treasures.
These fragments are of little use unless given to a master craftsman to refine treasures. However, the Huangjue clone can be used as a medium for inscribing array patterns. Since they're all scraps anyway, it's good to use them to practice one's skills.
In the primordial universe, in the Pure Source Secret Realm, inside the Azure Crystal Jade Pagoda.
Before the silver array base, the Dark Demon God, the Bright Martial Venerable, and other cosmic lords who practiced "Illusion Arrays" and "Intent Arrays" were all meditating. Even Ye Muxuan's third disciple, Palace Master Silver Soul, was present. She was a high-ranking Venerable of the Illusionist lineage, with strength approaching that of a cosmic overlord, and might very well follow the path of Illusion Arrays in the future; it was good for her to come and meditate beforehand.
It's a pity that Venerable Qingmei is already in seclusion, otherwise she, as the controller, could also come and comprehend it.
At a certain moment, the Mingwu Venerable, clad in dark red armor, opened his eyes, his gaze swirling with starlight and displaying a myriad of extraordinary sights.
A broken silver fragment appeared in his hand. It was torn from the arm of the Silver Lord, the ruler of the mechanical universe, and used as the base of the array. Once the array patterns were engraved on it, it would be easier to merge with the Silver Lord and thus easier to enslave the Silver Lord's will.
Mingwu Zunzhu drew strands of divine power with his fingertips, engraving them on the silver fragment. In the subtle sound, there was a strange rhythm, and array patterns appeared on the silver fragment.
In the blink of an eye, the Mingwu Venerable completed the final stroke. The dense but incomplete array patterns merged into one, shining brightly for a moment before disappearing.
