Chapter 583

"The 28th alien Sunlight-tier lord."

Zhao Xing looked at the three corpses he had recovered and glanced at his military merit.

"All are the minimum 10 million military merit."

"The progress hasn't even increased by 1%."

"They can only be used to make up the numbers."

Zhao Xing didn't care; after all, where would he find so many geniuses like 'Lord Yi Bai' for him to kill?

Mediocrity is normal.

Geniuses are, after all, a minority.

And according to the remaining military merit requirements, he still had to kill over four hundred such lords.

"Let's go, look for the next target."

Zhao Xing started the Angel and left quickly.

As time passed, the 'Demon King's' fame in the Shattered Star Ring grew larger and larger.

Many Sunlight-tier aliens became terrified.

"This is too much!"

"This Demon King must possess Void-tier combat power; even if he's not at the level of the 12 strongest, he's close."

"With such strength... why stay in the Shattered Star Ring?"

"He should go to the Ten Thousand Star Islands, or the center of continents like the Zihe Battlefield, where there is a large amount of Ziguang soil."

"Right, in the ten thousand years of the Shattered Star Ring, only 100 million cubic meters of Ziguang soil have been discovered in total. It takes 1 trillion cubic meters to extract 1 gram of divine substance. Why is he staying here?"

"It is said that the Demon King is only Silver Moon-tier? Various star systems of the Red Star Empire seem to have some ancient traditions. Could the Demon King be performing some kind of ritual, or mission?"

A few who understood the Red Star Empire analyzed based on the Demon King's behavior that the 'Demon King' was performing some kind of mission!

The second stage of the mission is the Sunlight tier!

But that was as far as it went.

The Red Star Empire is too vast; there are 108 first-class star systems alone.

Each star system must have hundreds of millions of life planets.

As for second, third, and fourth-class star systems, they add up to several million.

The customs and cultures between star systems are different, and it is very difficult to infer the Demon King's origin based on this information.

But regardless, the Demon King has become the most feared expert in the Shattered Star Ring.

Even super-first-class Sunlight-tier experts like Baruk and Dark Star have no way to deal with the Demon King.

Because the Demon King's detection range is too large, and he also possesses super-fast flight tools.

Once an expert gets close, he runs away immediately.

There's no other way; the experts of the Shattered Star Ring can only act more low-key.

When exploring the Shattered Star Ring, they try to travel in groups.

…………

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, two years had already gone by.

It was also the fourth year since Zhao Xing entered the Shattered Star Ring.

Crown Star.

Named because its shape resembles a crown, it is also one of the 'Ziguang soil' production sites discovered in recent years.

This is the territory of the Zerg expert 'Baruk'.

It can produce 1,000 cubic meters of Ziguang soil every year.

At this moment, Zhao Xing's spaceship was quietly approaching Crown Star.

"Master, there are 50 Sunlight-tier lords guarding Crown Star."

"They are all subordinates of Lord Baruk."

"Baruk appeared in the Shattered Star Ring two thousand years ago, and he has stayed here for two thousand years. He is also a genius in the Zerg Alliance, with a noble lineage, belonging to the 'Space-Rending Zerg' of the Royal Family."

Zero reported.

"1,000 cubic meters a year, and he actually sent so many people to guard it?" Zhao Xing was a bit puzzled.

"Master, don't underestimate this output." Zero said, "Sunlight-tier lords have long lifespans and can live for ten thousand years."

"If he can dominate it for 10,000 years, it can continuously produce, that's 10 million cubic meters of Ziguang soil!"

"Baruk has occupied this place for two thousand years, and it is rumored that he has already obtained 2 million cubic meters of Ziguang soil, and there is no sign of production decreasing at all."

". ｀ No wonder." Zhao Xing suddenly understood.

If production doesn't decrease and the income is continuous, it is indeed worth occupying.

1 trillion cubic meters of Ziguang soil extracts 1 gram of divine substance!

Zhao Xing had checked the introduction to divine substance.

That is for the use of Venerables!

The minimum threshold for use is the Void Prince level.

One can imagine how precious this kind of treasure is!

Therefore, a territory that can stably produce Ziguang soil, even if the annual output is small, can definitely be considered a treasure land.

Sending people to guard it is very normal.

"Master, Baruk himself is guarding another Ziguang soil production site, where the output is larger, at 3,000 cubic meters per year."

"There are only his subordinates here, but it's not that easy to attack; the important area probably has very tight protection."

Zhao Xing said: "How will I know if I don't try to attack it."

There's no other way; he had been wandering in the Shattered Star Ring for 2 years.

In the past two years, Zhao Xing had killed 312 Sunlight-tier lords!

The lord trial mission progress had reached 85%!

However, the activity of Sunlight-tier experts had become very low. It had decreased several times compared to before!

It can be said that Zhao Xing had killed the activity of the experts in the Shattered Star Ring.

Sunlight-tier lords had started acting in groups.

Or, they stayed in important areas and didn't come out.

Zhao Xing also felt a bit helpless.

But going to another place would be an unfamiliar environment, not as convenient as a familiar place.

"Try it once. If it doesn't work, I'll change places and leave the Shattered Star Ring."

Waving his hand, Zhao Xing stopped 50 million kilometers away from Crown Star.

Then he began to deploy.

The Angel's detection range is 100 million kilometers; as a legendary high-tier spaceship, it far exceeds other detectors.

…………

Just as Zhao Xing was carrying out his hunting operation.

On the edge of the Shattered Star Ring, on a meteorite.

Lord Yano was resting on his spaceship, checking the rumors of the Shattered Star Ring.

"Sigh, if only I could hang out with the Demon King."

"I don't know where this Sunlight-tier expert of the Empire is from."

Lord Yano thought.

He had been in the Shattered Star Ring for a year and a half.

Coming here, the thing he heard most was the rumors about the Demon King.

However, by this time, the claim that the Demon King was Silver Moon-tier was no longer popular.

The mainstream view was that the Demon King was a powerful Sunlight-tier plant lord!

Comparable to Void-tier combat power!

So Lord Yano had never linked the 'Demon King' to Zhao Xing of the Beihe Star System.

After all, how many years had it been since the other party broke through to the Silver Moon tier?

Become a Sunlight-tier lord, and also comparable to Void-tier combat power?

Lord Yano didn't dare to think in that direction.

The Empire is so big; it's not like there are no combat-type plant lords.
