349: You all deserve to be killed!

Three streams of light tore through the chaotic space, revealing their figures above the Myriad Dao Outpost, surrounding the base under construction in a triangular formation.

Due East: An old man draped in a star-patterned robe, holding a Star Orbit Compass. Starlight swirled around his body, and his Aura was vast and profound; he was clearly a top-tier Dao Monarch who had comprehended the "Great Dao of Stars" to Perfection!

Behind him, there was a faint phantom of the heavens' stars in motion, and the power fluctuations he emitted far exceeded those of a Primordial Dao Monarch. It was preliminarily judged that his star system already covered basic branches such as "Star Power Traction," "Starlight Body Protection," and "Meteor Summoning." The Dao power he wielded alone approached fifty Yuan, and his total combat power was estimated to be over three hundred Yuan Force!

Southeast: A burly giant enveloped in crimson flames, carrying a massive lava warhammer on his back. The surging flame power scorched the surrounding space, causing it to slightly distort. The core flames were an exotic dark gold, carrying an Aura that incinerated all things.

This was also a top-tier Dao Monarch, controlling two major core systems: "Lava Fire" and the "Great Dao of Destruction." His system covered branches such as "Lava Armor," "Flame Eruption," "Burning Gold Boiling Seas," and "Flames of Destruction," and his might was wild and tyrannical!

Due North: A Withered Old Man with a sinister expression, holding a white bone scepter. Death Qi permeated his body, surrounded by countless wailing vengeful Soul phantoms, and he stepped on a churning, filthy sea of blood beneath his feet. This was a Dao Monarch of a branch system of the supreme "Great Dao of Life and Death"!

Although he had not fully grasped the supreme core, his mastery of branches such as "Resurrection of the Dead," "Nirvana Erosion," and "Soul Absorption" was extremely profound. His Aura was cold and vicious, making him the most dangerous existence among the three! His total combat power was at least 2000 Yuan Force!

"Hmph! A mere greenhorn, and you dare to covet the 'great dao origin flow'?" The Dao Monarch of the Stars' voice was like a whisper from the star sea, carrying a condescending indifference. "Hand over the Secret Realm token and the spatial beacon, and I will spare your lives!"

"Why waste words with them! Just smash this broken fort, and the items will naturally be ours!" The lava giant's voice was like thunder, and the lava warhammer in his hand erupted with blinding dark golden firelight. The terrifying pressure made many Star Scar Guards and engineering Puppets with lower cultivation below feel suffocated.

The Withered Old Man laughed sinisterly, lightly tapping his white bone scepter. The filthy sea of blood beneath his feet churned, and countless white bone skeletons struggled to crawl out, making a teeth-grinding friction sound: "Fresh Souls... just right to replenish my Blood Soul Pool..."

Facing the pressure of three top-tier, or even near-supreme, Dao Monarchs, the Myriad Dao Outpost under construction was like a lonely boat in an angry sea. However, the Star Scar Guards showed no fear, forming a defensive formation, their Auras unchanged.

Just then, a calm voice, cold as eternal ice, came clearly from the bridge of the "Chaos Rock," instantly drowning out the chaotic energy storm and the Dao Monarchs' pressure:

"This seat is Lin Yuan, Lord of Chaos Origin City."

"This place is the territory of the Star Alliance."

"You have trespassed, spoken wild words, and disturbed the construction..."

"You all, must die!"

Before the words faded, Lin Yuan's figure appeared silently at the highest point of the Myriad Dao Outpost's main fortress, facing the three Dao Monarchs from afar. There was no earth-shattering Aura erupting from his body, only a thin layer of Chaos mist swirling, yet it dissipated the terrifying pressure released by the three Dao Monarchs into nothingness! It was as if that power, enough to crush stars, had been thrown into a bottomless Chaos Return to Ruin.

"Chaos Origin City? Star Alliance? Never heard of them!" The lava giant sneered, his eyes filled with vicious light. "Playing god! Watch me smash you flat with one hammer!" He couldn't be bothered with nonsense. His arm muscles knotted, and the dark golden lava warhammer, carrying the violent power to incinerate the galaxy, tore through space and smashed down towards Lin Yuan's head! Before the hammer arrived, the terrifying heat pressure had already scorched the chaos divine gold city wall below red!

"Ignorant of life and death." Lin Yuan's eyes were indifferent. Facing this terrifying strike that could severely injure a Peak Hunyuan Realm, he simply raised his right hand slowly.

There was no earth-shattering energy fluctuation, only his five fingers spread open, pressing lightly against the descending giant lava hammer!

"Chaos · Return to Ruin · Devour!"

In his palm, a miniature, high-speed rotating Chaos Return to Ruin black hole instantly took shape! The edge of the black hole flowed with ultimate annihilation runes, and its interior seemed to connect to the end of the Universe!

Boom!!!

The dark golden lava giant hammer slammed fiercely into the black hole! The expected earth-shattering explosion did not occur. The terrifying flame energy and destructive impact, capable of melting gold and iron, were like a clay ox entering the sea, crazily devoured, decomposed, and annihilated by that small black hole! Even the hammer itself, the hammerhead forged from unknown Divine Gold, began to carbonize and disintegrate at a speed visible to the naked eye the moment it touched the edge of the black hole!

"What?!" The grimace on the lava giant's face instantly froze, replaced by boundless horror! He felt an irresistible devouring force coming from the hammer handle, crazily pulling his arm, and even trying to drag his whole person into that terrifying black hole!

"Not good! Save him!" The Dao Monarch of the Stars' expression changed drastically. The Star Orbit Compass in his hand spun rapidly, and several condensed star chains appeared out of thin air, winding towards the lava giant's waist, attempting to pull him back. At the same time, he channeled the Star Power of the heavens, turning it into a giant spear of starlight, fiercely stabbing at Lin Yuan!

The Withered Old Man also reacted extremely quickly. Waving his white bone scepter, a giant white bone demon claw rose from the filthy sea of blood, carrying the Nirvana Death Qi that corroded the Soul, and grabbed at Lin Yuan from the side! Countless white bone skeletons surged towards the Myriad Dao Outpost like a tide, attempting to interfere with Lin Yuan's defense!

Facing the joint siege of the three Dao Monarchs, Chaos divine light flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes! His left hand still maintained the Chaos Return to Ruin black hole devouring the lava hammer, while his right hand formed a sword gesture, and he slashed two mysterious trajectories in the air towards the incoming starlight spear and white bone demon claw!

"Life and Death Rotation · Sever!"

At his left fingertip, pure white Life Qi condensed, turning into a "Blade of Life Judgment" that severed all constraints, carrying the Aura of purifying all things, and precisely slashed onto the star chains!

At his right fingertip, pitch-black Death Qi surged, turning into a "Slash of Death Nirvana" that ended all things, meeting the giant white bone demon claw!

Sizzle! Crack!

The star chains containing the might of the Dao Monarch of the Stars, the moment they touched the "Blade of Life Judgment," were like ropes thrown into strong acid, rapidly dimming and breaking!

The filthy, giant white bone demon claw was sliced open from the middle by the "Slash of Death Nirvana" like a hot knife through butter! The Nirvana Death Qi that made up the demon claw seemed to have encountered a higher-ranking Death Dominator, emitting shrill wails, and was forcibly assimilated and devoured!

"Ah—!!!" The lava giant's scream resounded through the starry sky! The moment the star chains were severed, he could no longer resist the devouring force of the Chaos Return to Ruin black hole! His entire person, along with his lava warhammer that was disintegrating, was completely devoured by that small, yet seemingly world-swallowing black hole! Not even a trace of residue remained!
