Chapter 362: Sweeping Away a Top-Tier Dominator with a Wave of the Hand

After entering the vortex passage leading to the third level of the Punishing God Hall, Lu Qingshan felt a dizzying whirl, then found himself standing in a white, misty world identical to the previous one.

Lu Qingshan looked up and immediately saw a silver-white spear suspended in the void at the center of the world.

When he scanned the other regions of this level, he found no trace of any other experts.

Just as he prepared to fly toward the silver-white spear, he suddenly felt a transparent barrier blocking his path.

At the same time, a new message appeared in Lu Qingshan's mind…

It stated that the transparent barrier would remain for three days, until other experts in this level arrived.

That meant if no other experts arrived, Lu Qingshan would have to wait three days before he could claim the silver-white spear ahead and enter the next level.

Thus, Lu Qingshan waited in place for over half an hour, until the transparent barrier before him finally vanished.

At that moment, Lu Qingshan also noticed another figure in this level of the world.

It was a strange beast over ten kilometers long, its entire body covered in blood-red scales, with cruel, bloodthirsty light flickering in its eyes.

"The Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe of the Insect Alliance?"

Recognizing the opponent's identity, Lu Qingshan felt a flicker of surprise.

The Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe was one of the seven leaders of the Insect Alliance's ordinary tribe, the Xueling Clan, and the strongest among them.

The other six leaders of the Xueling Clan were merely Cosmic Dominators, but this Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe, in his weak days, had possessed a special lifeform with a life-gene level three thousand times higher, and with sufficient innate talent, he eventually created the Ultimate Cosmic Dominator Secret Art after countless ages.

With the full support of the entire Xueling Clan, he then acquired numerous precious treasures, granting him the power of a Top-Tier Cosmic Dominator.

If this had been the old Lu Qingshan, killing the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe—with his Top-Tier Cosmic Dominator power—would have been extremely troublesome, and success was far from guaranteed.

But now, things were different!

"The Hong Alliance's Wan Jie Zifeng Zunzhe?"

As Lu Qingshan spotted the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe, the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe also noticed Lu Qingshan, and his face quickly darkened with deep wariness.

After all, during this period, Lu Qingshan had earned immense fame on the Primitive Star.

Even as a Top-Tier Cosmic Dominator, he could not ignore the current Lu Qingshan.

Yet the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe was not overly worried—after all, as a Top-Tier Cosmic Dominator, his divine body size, combat secret arts, and protective treasures had all reached the absolute peak possible for the Cosmic Zifeng Zunzhe stage; even if he couldn't defeat Lu Qingshan, his survival was assured.

"If I truly fight this Wan Jie Zifeng Zunzhe, it will surely turn into a stalemate!"

The Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe silently thought: "Then it comes down to who claims the treasure in this level first—once I have it, I'll gain the upper hand in any ensuing stalemate!"

Thinking this, the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe immediately activated his movement technique and shot toward the silver-white spear at the center of this level, while also unleashing his personal domain treasure.

Shhh-shhh-shhh!

Suddenly, countless stars appeared across the surrounding heavens, like countless stars shining—but each carried infinite lethal intent.

"The Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe's 'Starlight Sea'?"

Seeing the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe strike first, Lu Qingshan had no hesitation: "Since this Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe attacked first, let him be the first enemy I kill after reaching the Lord Realm!"

Xiu!

Lu Qingshan's previously compressed divine body instantly swelled to three hundred kilometers, and his divine power ignited at once.

As his form shifted several times, the Guhong Zhao Ying Sword in his hand moved.

As boundless divine power surged into it, the blade's surface immediately bloomed with dense, intricate law runes—mysterious, unfathomable, breathtakingly beautiful!

As Lu Qingshan swung the Guhong Zhao Ying Sword, it directly triggered the Cosmic Thunder-Time Fusion Law!

"This Wan Jie Zifeng Zunzhe truly lives up to his reputation—he's attacking the moment we meet! But do you really think you can possibly overcome…?"

Seeing Lu Qingshan strike at him, the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe's thoughts flashed—then his face turned ashen: "This is…"

A brilliant sword light suddenly blazed forth.

Cold!

Sharp!

The Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe's prized technique was instantly crushed beneath the brilliant sword light, which then continued, carrying overwhelming power, to strike the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe's divine body armor.

The sword light's power exceeded the upper limit of the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe's high-grade treasure armor, which could only reduce the attack's force by half—the remaining impact struck the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe's divine body directly.

"I, I, I…"

The Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe's divine body was flung backward by the terrifying force; he was utterly stunned: "My divine body has lost over fifty percent?"

"This—this is something only a Lord Realm cultivator could accomplish! Has this Wan Jie Zifeng Zunzhe already broken through to the Lord Realm?"

At that moment, another brilliant sword light ignited.

"Spare me! Spare me!" the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe frantically sent a mental message to Lu Qingshan.

But Lu Qingshan paid him no heed—he continued directing the brilliant sword light toward his opponent.

Boom—boom—boom!

The brilliant sword light struck the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe again, and his divine body instantly dissolved into nothingness, leaving only several treasures flying in all directions.

Lu Qingshan watched as the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe was obliterated by two strikes, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

Before his breakthrough, he could barely match the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe in strength, relying only on his vast reserves of divine power to gradually drain the opponent's.

Even then, he might eventually exhaust the enemy—but it would take far too long.

Now, having reached the Lord Realm, his divine power's essence was a hundred times purer, and his life-gene level had risen from the original cosmic average's hundredfold limit to fifteen hundredfold—that's a fifteen-hundredfold power gap!

Combined with the replacement of his Cosmic Dominator Ultimate Secret Art with his current Lord Realm Peak Secret Art, Lu Qingshan's power had increased by more than ten thousand times since his breakthrough.

Remember, a thousandfold power difference is enough to annihilate an enemy with a single strike.

That Lu Qingshan needed two strikes to kill the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe was only because the opponent's divine body was unusually large.

Of course, if the Bloodscale Zifeng Zunzhe had worn a top-grade treasure armor and activated it to its third tier, killing him would have been far more difficult for Lu Qingshan.

But the Xueling Clan was merely an ordinary tribe—even if they pooled all their resources, it was uncertain whether they could afford even one top-grade treasure armor, let alone acquire one.

Hu—hu—hu!

The several treasures floating in midair swiftly flew toward Lu Qingshan under his divine power's control.

"A high-grade supreme treasure weapon, a high-grade supreme treasure armor, as well as a domain-type supreme treasure and a top-grade heavy treasure of the soul type!"

Lu Qingshan first put away the supreme treasures, then began to inspect the only world ring left behind after Blood Scale Zifeng Zunzhe's fall. Unfortunately, there weren't many treasures inside—only a few ordinary heavy treasures and top-grade heavy treasures, all adding up to just a few hundred heavy treasure points.

"I heard this Blood Scale Zifeng Zunzhe has been roaming this Primordial Star for a very long time, so he definitely didn't only have this much harvest. It seems he's already sent the treasures back to his clan!"

After examining the many treasures, Lu Qingshan secretly thought: "And the treasures from the first two layers of the Execution God Palace aren't here either. It looks like he ran into a tough enemy and traded those treasures for the qualification to enter this third layer!"

"Too bad he ran into me—not only did he fail to gain any new harvest, he ended up losing his life as well!"

"Still, my harvest this time isn't bad either!"

Lu Qingshan spread out his divine power to collect the silver-white spear located in the central region of the world, while secretly calculating in his heart: "This spear is quite decent even among high-grade supreme treasures. If I contribute it to the clan's treasure vault, I should be able to get about fifteen supreme treasure points. As for the treasures on Blood Scale Zifeng Zunzhe's body, they're probably worth over fifty supreme treasure points!"

"Just these harvests alone make this trip worthwhile, let alone the chance to obtain new treasures later on!"

Whoosh!

While countless thoughts flashed through his mind, Lu Qingshan quickly stepped into the fully formed vortex passage ahead.

……

In a remote region of the universe, within the starry sky where the Blood Spirit Clan lived, on a life planet entirely dark red in color.

Blood Scale Zifeng Zunzhe's divine palace was located on this life planet, and this place was also one of the seven great sacred grounds of the Blood Spirit Clan.

At this moment, the many Blood Spirit Clan members inside the palace were looking with great reverence and worship at a distant figure—it was precisely the divine power incarnation Blood Scale Zifeng Zunzhe had left within the clan after heading out to roam the Primordial Star.

A divine power incarnation was generally extremely weak in strength. If the true body perished, the incarnation simply couldn't exist independently,

When powerful experts went out to roam, leaving behind a divine power incarnation was most importantly for the purpose of communicating with the powerful experts within the clan.

But just at this moment……

"I……"
