Swallowing the Stars, I am the Lord of the Galaxy

His appearance immediately triggered a deafening roar of cheers and kneeling from the entire audience: "Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Xingchen nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the countless excited faces below. His voice, calm yet clear, resounded throughout every corner: "Today is a day of great celebration for my Xingchen Kingdom! We celebrate the achievement of our Kingdom's Second Ruler, Luo Feng, in establishing unparalleled merit and glorifying our race!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped aside.

In an instant, all eyes were focused on the other end of the Avenue of Stars.

Luo Feng walked slowly towards them. He was still wearing a simple silver robe, his expression calm and his eyes deep, as if the earth-shattering revenge and slaughter he had just experienced had not left many marks on him. Only his extremely restrained yet powerful aura made all the powerful people present feel trembling.

His steps were steady, each step seemingly resonating with the very essence of the entire nation, causing the starry sky to sway and the laws to rejoice.

"Greetings to the Second King!"

"Long live the King of Luofeng!"

An even more fervent and deafening cheer erupted into the sky, the sound almost upside down the starry heavens!

Countless eyes were focused on him, filled with endless admiration, awe and gratitude!

With invincible strength, they conquered this vast territory for them! With the sword in their hands, they defended the dignity of their nation and created a new sky for the human race!

Luo Feng walked to Xingchen's side, nodded slightly to the countless people below, and said nothing more. But his very presence was the best boost to morale.

Xingchen smiled at him and said in a loud voice, "The achievements of King Luofeng are as dazzling as the stars and as awe-inspiring as the continent! His former territory, the former land of the Shi Kingdom, shall be designated as the 'Luotian Star Region,' his direct fiefdom! Reward..."

A series of incredibly generous rewards were announced from Xingchen's mouth, each one eliciting gasps of amazement from below. Countless people were envious and jealous, yet felt it was all justified.

After bestowing the rewards, Xingchen raised a cup of fine wine condensed from the very essence of the stars and addressed the entire audience: "Let us drink this cup together to celebrate our Star Kingdom! To celebrate Luo Feng!"

"Congratulations to the nation! Congratulations to Luo Feng!"

Hundreds of millions of living beings shouted in unison, their voices resounding throughout the world, as they raised their glasses and drank this wine that symbolized glory and splendor.

The grand celebration has officially begun.

The entire Star Kingdom was immersed in a sea of ​​jubilation.

Chaos City Lord, Giant Axe, Darkness, Peng Gong, and others moved through the crowd, receiving congratulations from powerful figures from all sides, their faces beaming with unprecedented radiance and pride.

The Primordial Ancestor and the Star Pivot sat in their relatively quiet seats, looking at this magnificent scene. They smiled at each other, their eyes filled with satisfaction.

Humanity has finally gained a firm foothold on this vast continent and achieved a pivotal position.

Luo Feng was surrounded by countless powerful figures who came to offer him a toast. Among them were envoys from neighboring countries and powerful clans, who were extremely respectful and even a little obsequious.

Although Luo Feng disliked social engagements, he knew they were necessary and responded with a calm yet polite attitude.

His gaze occasionally met that of the teacher on the high platform, and he could see the smile and tacit understanding in the other's eyes.

This celebration is not just for the victory, but also an opportunity for Star Kingdom to announce its rebirth and strength to the entire Origin Continent, to flex its muscles and intimidate all sides!

The effect is obvious.

The envoys who came to witness the ceremony, seeing the prosperity and strength of the Star Kingdom, feeling Luo Feng's unfathomable aura, and the high morale of hundreds of millions of soldiers and civilians, were all filled with awe and deeply imprinted the idea of ​​befriending them and not offending them in their hearts.

The celebration lasted for a very long time.

When the starlight was at its brightest, Luo Feng was finally able to escape and stand shoulder to shoulder with the stars on the observatory, gazing at the still jubilant kingdom below and the vast star field newly incorporated into the distant sky.

"How does it feel?"

Xingchen asked with a smile.

Luo Feng let out a soft breath, looked at the starry sky that he had changed, and slowly said, "The responsibility is heavy."

Xingchen nodded: "With great power comes great responsibility. The future of this land and its people rests on our shoulders."

"The disciple understands."

Luo Feng's gaze was firm.

"I will continue to grow stronger, strong enough to protect all of this and lead my people to a more glorious future."

"I believe you."

Xingchen patted him on the shoulder.

"After the celebration, focus on consolidating your cultivation. Assimilating the territory of the Food Kingdom is not something that can be accomplished in a day, and there may be challenges ahead."

"is teacher."

The master and apprentice said no more, simply gazing quietly at their vast kingdom, savoring the hard-won glory and tranquility.

Although the Star Kingdom's annexation of the Food Kingdom was completed with lightning speed, such a vast territory cannot be completely digested and absorbed overnight.

Countless resources need to be inventoried and integrated, various forces need to be appeased or suppressed, and a new order needs to be established and maintained... This is a long and tedious process.

The Star Kingdom's energy was largely tied up in this, with its army scattered across various locations, keeping the Chaos City Lord, the Primordial Ancestor, Star Pivot, and others extremely busy.

However, just as Xingchen had predicted, there were always some forces that were attracted by the huge "fat piece of meat" that was the Food Kingdom, hoping to take a chance and try to snatch chestnuts from the fire.

On this day, in the newly established "Luo Tian Star Domain" of the Star Kingdom, on the edge of the original Food Kingdom's core territory, there was a rich and chaotic state called "Black Skeleton State".

Suddenly, the void was torn apart by two extremely powerful auras of god-kings!

Two figures stepped out, surrounded by laws and exuding immense power. They were clearly two powerful experts at the second level of the God King realm!

A figure shrouded in distorted shadows, seemingly the master of all darkness, is known as the "Shadow-Eyed God King";

The other was covered in cold, metallic scales that radiated an incomparably sharp aura; he was the "Golden Skeleton God King".

These two are both renowned solitary god-kings on the Origin Continent, both righteous and evil, with formidable strength. They usually occupy a small territory and rule as kings, but now they have come together.

Their gazes swept over the starry sea before them, which had just changed its flag but whose defenses were clearly not yet fully secured, and their eyes revealed undisguised greed.

"Tsk tsk, the Star Kingdom is quick to act, planting flags all over the place so soon."

Shadow Eye God King's voice was sharp and laced with sarcasm.

"Unfortunately, the business has expanded too much, and there are bound to be areas that cannot be taken care of."

The Golden Skeleton God King's voice was resounding, like the friction of metal: "Hmph, Luo Feng is strong, capable of slaying the Heavenly Kun, but he must have expended a great deal of energy and is currently in seclusion to recover. The Star Kingdom Lord is strong, but he needs to sit in the central command and coordinate the overall situation; how could he leave so easily?"

"Exactly this!"

Shadow Eye God King gave a sinister smile.

"We are not greedy. We only need to join forces and forcibly occupy this place. This place is rich in resources, enough for us to enjoy for endless years. The Star Kingdom has just experienced a great war and has annexed such a large territory. It will certainly not want to easily start a war between gods and kings, especially when facing the two of us at the same time! Most likely, it will choose to swallow its anger and accept the fait accompli."

The two exchanged a knowing smile, both pleased with their calculations. They were confident in their strength; together, they were enough to instill fear in any power. Strike while the iron is hot—that was their survival strategy.

"Let's get started, lest things get complicated!"

With a low shout, the Golden Skeleton God King instantly opened his vast God King Domain. The cold metal laws, like billions of sharp blades, were about to envelop the area below, attempting to forcibly imprint his mark!

At the same time, the Shadow Eye God King activated the Shadow Domain, and countless twisted shadow tentacles spread out, devouring light and corroding space!

The two powerful beings at the second level of the God King realm launched their attack simultaneously, their power earth-shattering and instantly alarming the Star Legion stationed in the Black Skeleton Star Sea!

The soldiers' expressions changed drastically as they felt the irresistible and terrifying pressure, and despair rose in their hearts!

However, just as their domains were about to touch the territory below—

"Humph!"

A cold snort, seemingly originating from the frigid ends of the universe, suddenly resounded deep within the souls of the two god-kings!

Immediately afterwards, an indescribable, terrifying will descended like the entire universe crashing down!

Click!Click!

The once vast and powerful god-king domains of Shadow Eye God King and Golden Skeleton God King shattered like fragile glass under the pressure of this supreme will! They couldn't even withstand it for a single breath!

"what?!"

The two god-kings turned deathly pale instantly, their eyes filled with boundless terror and horror! They felt their very souls trembling, their divine bodies seemingly about to be crushed into dust by this will!

"How dare you covet the territory of the Star Kingdom?"

The cold voice rang out again, and a figure shrouded in endless starlight appeared out of thin air—it was Xingchen! His eyes were indifferent, looking at the two of them as if they were two ants.

At the same time, another aura of destruction also descended.

"Star...Star Kingdom Lord! Devouring God King!"

Shadow Eye God King and Golden Skeleton God King were so frightened that their voices changed!

They never expected that the Star Lord would personally descend! And even the Devouring God King came.

Wasn't it said that he was in charge of the central command? Wasn't it said that he was unwilling to easily start a war between the gods?

This is clearly attacking without asking any questions and going straight for the kill!

"escape!"

With only one thought in their minds, they burned their very essence and desperately tried to tear through the void to escape!

"Want to leave now? It's too late."

Xingchen spoke calmly and didn't even make a move.

The God King Mu Qing, standing to the side, simply raised his withered finger and pointed it at the void.

hum!

An invisible wave of destruction instantly spread out, and the space around the two seemed to become the most solid barrier of chaos, which they could not budge no matter how they tried to break through! Even time seemed to be frozen!

"No!! Your Majesty, spare us! We know we were wrong! We are willing to retreat immediately and never set foot on the territory of the Star Kingdom again!"

The Shadow-Eyed God King begged for mercy in terror.

"We are willing to offer all our treasures, only begging the king to spare our lives!"

The Golden Skeleton God King completely lost his arrogance and hurriedly shouted.

Xingchen's eyes remained icy: "Those who covet my land shall die."

As soon as he finished speaking, he slowly raised his hand. In his palm, the two completely different laws of life and destruction merged perfectly, transforming into a terrifying beam of gray light that seemed capable of fixing the universe and resetting the earth, water, fire, and wind. It shot out instantly!

At the same time, God King Mu Qing opened his mouth and spat out a thin but extremely condensed black fire line, containing the ultimate meaning of annihilation!

The two attacks, one containing the mysteries of the universe's birth and death, and the other being the ultimate pure destruction, instantly traversed space and landed on the Shadow Eye God King and the Golden Skeleton God King, who were completely imprisoned.

"Do not--!!!"

The two powerful beings at the second level of the God King realm couldn't even put up a decent resistance. Faced with the hazy beams of light and the black lines of fire, their divine bodies, their divine souls, their Great Dao... all traces of existence were instantly annihilated and turned into nothingness!

It's as if they never existed in this world.
