248: Chapter 247 Wealth Devours Stars, Luck Backfires!
"The fourth!"
Lin Feng's voice echoed between heaven and earth like a cold wind from the Nine Netherworlds.
Above the firmament, the fairy clouds, originally filled with myriad auspicious signs, had long been stained scarlet.
Golden blood rain poured down; this was the sorrow of heaven and earth triggered by the fall of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
Each drop of rain that fell smashed an unfathomably deep crater into the ground, and the residual resentment within was enough to cause an ordinary True Immortal to suffer Qi Deviation on the spot.
"The fifth!"
Accompanied by a crisp sound of cracking bones, another Star Lord clad in starlight armor had his head crushed directly by a large hand wreathed in dark golden thunder, without even a chance to scream.
The headless corpse fell, and before it could hit the ground, it was ground into powder by the surging blood Qi around Lin Feng, dissipating into the air as pure energy.
The Twelve Yuanchen Star Lords, originally arrogant and representing the majesty of the Heavenly Court, were now like stray dogs with their spines broken.
In just a few dozen breaths, in this sealed Void Realm battlefield, Lin Feng had crushed five of them to death as if they were stink bugs!
The fear welling up from the depths of their Souls made the remaining seven Star Lords tremble with terror.
Their Golden Immortal Perfection cultivation, which they prided themselves on, was as fragile as paper before that monstrous Physical Body comparable to an Acquired Spirit Treasure.
All protective immortal light and defensive Magic Treasure were merely decorations under Lin Feng's fists.
"What... what kind of monster is this?!"
"My 'Ziwei Heart-Protecting Mirror' is a High Grade Immortal Artifact, yet he pierced through it with a single finger!"
"We cannot retreat any further! To retreat again is a dead end!"
The "Chenlong Star Lord," acting as commander, was disheveled, his originally majestic dragon-head mask already shattered on one side, revealing a pale and twisted face beneath.
His eyes were blood-red as he stared fixedly at the figure of the demon god bathed in golden blood, letting out a desperate roar.
"Form the 'Zhou Tian Star-Drawing Formation'! Quickly! Even if we have to risk shattering our Dao foundations, we must invoke the power of the Nine Heavens stars' true bodies to suppress this fiend!!"
"But... forcibly invoking the main star bodies will cost us ten thousand years of Lifespan, and we might even undergo Daoization on the spot!" the Maotu Star Lord beside him screamed, voice trembling.
"If we don't risk it, we die now! Are you going to act or not?!" the Chenlong Star Lord roared.
"We'll risk it!"
Although the remaining six Star Lords were terrified, they knew this was their only chance.
Lin Feng's killing intent was set; he had no intention of leaving anyone alive.
"Hum—"
The seven of them bit their tongues simultaneously, spraying a mouthful of Origin blood onto the star Magical Artifacts in their hands.
In an instant, seven beams of light shot into the sky, piercing the firmament and heading straight into the unreachable Chaos starry sky.
The sky, which had been bright daylight, instantly darkened.
Rumble!
The firmament split, stars appeared in broad daylight!
Seven giant star projections, carrying ancient, vicissitudinous, and world-destroying Law of Gravity, pierced through layers of boundaries and slowly pressed down.
This was not an illusory Spell, but the descent of the true will of the stars!
Each star projection was as large as a mountain, with gullies crisscrossing its surface; one could even see magma and storms flowing on the star's surface.
Terrifying star true fire swirled around them, and wherever they passed, the Void Realm collapsed inch by inch, turning into black holes.
At this moment, all living beings within a radius of ten thousand miles prostrated on the ground, shivering; it was an instinctive awe of the might of heaven.
"Lin Feng! Die! This is the judgment of the Star Dao, the will of the Heavenly Court!" the Chenlong Star Lord laughed wildly, blood flowing from his seven orifices. Clearly, this move placed a tremendous burden on them, but the gratification in his eyes could not be concealed. "Under this power, even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal will be reduced to powder!"
The wild wind howled, causing Lin Feng's clothes to flap loudly.
He looked up at the seven giant stars that were pressing down like Mount Tai, obscuring his entire field of vision. He raised an eyebrow slightly, but there was no fear in his eyes; instead, there was a hint of... mockery?
"Yo, can't win so you start calling for backup? No, wait, is this calling for stars?"
Lin Feng even had the leisure to comment, "The special effects are well done. If used to crack walnuts, it should be quite handy."
His right hand slowly gripped the asura dragon-slaying blade behind his back; the blade hummed softly, thirsting for blood.
However, just as he was preparing to swing his blade to "trim the edges" of these stars, the Fugui, who had been playing dead on his shoulder, suddenly darted out as if it had smelled a peerless delicacy.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
Huang Fugui stood upright, his two short front paws gesturing wildly in the air. His golden and silver heterochromatic eyes reflected the sky full of stars; there was not a hint of fear, only the heart-palpitating greed one sees when looking at a grand feast.
"Master! Wait! Don't act yet!"
The Fugui's voice exploded in Lin Feng's mind, filled with uncontrollable excitement, "This dish... I can eat it! This is a great tonic!"
"You can eat it?" Lin Feng paused, the blade's momentum stalling. "This thing contains the Law of the stars and weighs over billions of jun; can you digest it? Don't blow yourself up; I'll have to collect your corpse if you do."
"Master, just watch! I am no longer what I used to be; I have awakened my ancient Bloodline and am now a 'Chaos Doom Weasel'! I have the foundation of Chaos Origin in my belly!"
After Huang Fugui finished speaking, he actually stood upright like a human and took a deep breath. His body did not grow larger, but in the Void Realm behind him, a vague, indescribable phantom of a primordial giant beast suddenly appeared.
Once that phantom appeared, the light between heaven and earth seemed to be sucked away by it.
It had no specific shape, only a giant mouth that seemed capable of swallowing the Universe and connecting to an endless abyss.
Facing those seven world-destroying star projections in the sky, the Fugui suddenly opened his small mouth and took a fierce gulp!
"Innate Divine Ability—Chaos Star-Swallowing! Slurp it up for me!!!"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—!!!
An extremely bizarre, counter-intuitive scene occurred.
Those seven star projections, which originally carried a destructive Aura and were unstoppable, actually began to tremble violently, twist, and deform when they approached a hundred zhang above the Fugui's head!
It was like noodles in hot soup encountering a super vacuum cleaner!
The energy, containing vast star Laws and capable of crushing mountains and rivers, was actually pulled into seven incredibly brilliant streams of light, spiraling uncontrollably and rushing madly toward the Fugui's small mouth!
"Wha... what?!"
The Chenlong Star Lord's eyeballs were about to pop out, his face full of disbelief. "He is devouring the power of the stars?! How is this possible! That is the Dao Law! That is the star Origin that even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal cannot touch! What is this beast?!"
"Slurp—gulp!"
The Fugui sucked while taking the time to let out a loud burp, his face filled with enjoyment, eyes squinting as if he were drinking some mint milk tea with ice cubes.
"The taste is not bad, a bit like the Mysterious Ice Marrow of the North Sea, just a bit cold on the stomach; it would be better if there was some chili."
As the power of the stars was frantically devoured, the energy channels connecting the seven Star Lords to the stars' true bodies instantly reversed!
Originally, they were borrowing the power of heaven to suppress Lin Feng; now it had turned into the Fugui using this channel, treating them as straws, and reverse-extracting the Origin immortal power from their bodies!
"No! My immortal power! My Origin!"
"Ahhh! My Lifespan is slipping away! Stop! Quickly stop!"
"Why can't I break it?! This damn suction force has stuck to my Primordial Spirit!"
The seven Star Lords let out terrified screams. Their bodies shriveled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and their originally bright and beautiful immortal skin and jade bones instantly became as old as withered wood.
"Since you've treated me to a meal, how can you withdraw the table halfway through?"
Lin Feng sneered, looking at these guys who had spun their own cocoons, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
"The Fugui is full, it's my turn to work. I'll send you on your way; no need to thank me."
"《God-Slaying · End》!"
Before the words fell, Lin Feng's figure disappeared into thin air.
Between heaven and earth, it seemed there was only a black cutting line, purely condensed from the Law of Death.
This line ignored the distance of space, ignored the flow of time, and shuttled through the middle of those seven immobile live targets.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
Seven soft sounds rang out almost simultaneously.
The black blade light dissipated, and Lin Feng had already appeared a hundred zhang away, with his back to the others, slowly sheathing his blade.
"Click."
Not until the blade was completely sheathed did the seven heads shoot into the sky, their faces still carrying terror, despair, and disbelief at their own fate.
And after they died, the out-of-control Formation instantly collapsed, and the violent residual power of the stars poured back down, triggering an energy self-detonation in mid-air as brilliant as fireworks!
Rumble!
"Slurp!"
The Fugui took the opportunity to take one last fierce gulp, swallowing all the most essential energy dissipated from the explosion into his belly. His originally shriveled little belly instantly became round, as if he were ten months pregnant, and he lay paralyzed in mid-air, limbs splayed upward.
"Refreshing! Hiccup~ I've never eaten such a filling feast in my life..."
Lin Feng ignored this glutton, and the System's notification sound in his mind rang out frantically like the music of heaven.
[Ding! Successfully killed Grand Unity Golden Immortal Early Stage x1!]
[Ding! Successfully killed Grand Unity Golden Immortal Early Stage x1!]

[Congratulations to the Host, obtained critical hit points: 240,000,000 billion (2.4 quadrillion)!]
[Obtained dropped items: Star Origin fragments x7, Top Grade Immortal Artifacts x12, Storage Rings x12...]
Lin Feng looked at the numbers on the panel that had surged again, so many zeros he could barely count them, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a flash of arrogant laughter.
"Twelve Zodiacs? Nothing more than this."
He looked up abruptly, his gaze seemingly piercing through layers of clouds and mist, staring straight at the high and lofty direction of the Nine Heavens, his eyes ice-cold and bone-chilling.
"Seven Luminaries, I've finished chopping off your claws. Next, it's time to chop off your dog head."
