Chapter 240: with translation of chapter title

Endless sand and gravel tumbled, a flat‑headed golden giant‑serpent metal monster burst out from the sand and gravel.

"Another forbidden‑area guardian!" Xiao Yu thought.

……

Xiao Yu seriously doubted whether the Star Tower was specifically targeting him; fifteen forbidden‑area spaces in a row, each drawing a forbidden‑area guardian, and each guardian had a vastly different combat style and level of danger.

The guardians of the fifteen forbidden‑area spaces: the strongest among them completely exceeded the King Limit, even approaching invincible King status; if they were true deities, igniting their divine bodies to unleash a thousandfold battle power, even Xiao Yu might not be able to destroy them so easily.

After the fifteen forbidden‑area spaces, Xiao Yu never encountered another forbidden‑area guardian.

On the Star Tower, he charged through one forbidden‑area space after another downward.

The 45th forbidden‑area space was a forest world.

At this moment, two large groups of alien Kings gathered above the forest world; one group was the Mechanical Race camp, with 32 Immortal Kings.

I haven't seen them before; I'd guess they're not any strong experts.

Xiao Yu turned his head toward the sound, which came from the Mechanical Race side: a figure with an iron‑plate face, a big black mouth, looking like an honest and simple alien expert.

Suddenly——

He had a good grasp of the situation on the field, and with just a glance he could clearly judge the circumstances.

Moreover, this Chen Hun King had only peak‑King strength, yet he dared to defecate on his head!

"Hahaha, this is the human race! Hahaha." Chen Hun King laughed wildly.

"Ape Three Sword." Xiao Yu said casually.

"Ape Three Sword, I've never heard of it; if you're wise, get out of here quick." Chen Hun King snorted, "This place isn't for someone like you to take part in."

"That actually explains why the Mechanical Race has many members yet is at a disadvantage." Xiao Yu thought.

"Human race?"

"I didn't expect to run into this bunch of disgusting bugs as soon as I arrived!"

Both sides—the Mechanical Race camp and the Insect Race camp—paid no attention to the lone expert who had appeared.

"Who are you?" a hoarse voice sounded.

"Hahaha..." a burst of laughter came from nearby.

After Xiao Yu appeared, he noticed that among the Insect Race Kings there was one who was the renowned Ku Zhen King.

In the distance, a crack sprang into existence, and Xiao Yu appeared in the form of a blue‑armored golden ape.

However, judging by their aura, it was actually the smaller Insect Race camp that held the advantage.

Each Insect Race Immortal Mother‑Empress is an unmatched entity; under her command are not only countless Immortal Insect Race warriors, but she also controls numerous Immortals of other alien races.

"You're being too overbearing—I'm just passing through! Once I find the exit, I'll leave on my own." Xiao Yu frowned slightly; he sensed that the Mechanical Race harbored unknown hostility toward him, and even though he had changed his appearance, he was still being targeted.

Xiao Yu had seen the data on this alien King before; his name was Chen Hun King.

Another group was the Insect Race camp, with only nine Immortal Kings.

According to previously gathered data, the Ku Zhen King is the soul slave of the Insect Race Immortal Mother‑Empress Nan Cheng; the Ku Zhen King is the strongest in defense among those under her soul control, usually acting abroad while Nan Cheng and her Immortal Insect Race legion remain inside the World Ring.

"I've found the exit."

The experts from both camps immediately flew toward the exit. Xiao Yu also flew toward the passage mouth, which lay in the Insect Race direction; Xiao Yu was closer to it, while the Mechanical Race was farthest away.

"Ape Three Sword, the Mechanical Race side and the Insect Race side will go in first; you'd better stay behind." Chen Hun King sent a mental shout.

"Hmph!" Xiao Yu snorted coldly; his momentary tolerance ended up letting a monkey run onto his head and piss!

"Ape Three Sword!" Seeing Xiao Yu ignore him, Chen Hun King's face stiffened instantly, then he flared with rage and roared.

"Courting death!" Xiao Yu snapped his head around.

A shrouding‑sky dark blade‑light long river issued from his hand, flying toward the not‑far‑away Chen Hun King; riding the gaps in spacetime undulations, the dark blade‑light long river moved faster than light.

Chen Hun King's eyes widened; he was locked by the Time Law contained within the dark blade‑light, and the surrounding space fell into a state of Time Pause.

Before Chen Hun King's consciousness could break free of the time shackles, that dark river surged into his divine body, which instantly shattered, leaving no chance of re‑formation.

The Insect Race and Mechanical Race camps, two great groups of alien Immortals, stared dumbfounded as Chen Hun King's divine body vanished; they could not imagine that a peak‑King could die just like that.

They couldn't even ignite an Immortal Divine Body.

"Hmph! Who else wants to provoke?" Xiao Yu glanced coldly at the many alien Kings, then said coldly.

Whether the Mechanical Race side or the Insect Race side, they were shocked by Xiao Yu's comprehension of the Space‑Time Origin; a peak‑King actually had no chance to fight back at all.

"The strength of this Ape Three Sword is absolutely comparable to an invincible King!"

"Why have I never heard of this Ape Three Sword's name before?"

"Maybe he's come from another battlefield! Isn't the Star Tower often visited by strong experts from other battlefields?"

Both the Mechanical Race camp and the Insect Race camp immediately raised their regard for Ape Three Sword; no fool would dare to bully Xiao Yu casually anymore.

Even if they were killed, they could revive, but revival came at a cost—especially since many of them were vassal races, requiring an even higher price.

Even so, Xiao Yu silently killed a Mechanical Race King in public; the Mechanical Race camp, a group of Immortal Kings bullied to the point of having it on their heads, how could they swallow this indignity?

If one of their comrades were killed and they didn't even dare to grunt, that would be utterly humiliating.

"Ape Three Sword, what do you mean by this?" Among the two Mechanical Race individuals surrounding him, the one wearing black battle armor with skin slightly bluish shouted.

"What do you mean? I'll just kill you!" Xiao Yu held the Chaos Blade, its edge aimed at the Mechanical Race side, instantly unleashing Phantom Hundred Slash combined with Open Heaven.

All 31 Mechanical Race Immortal Kings were stuck in a time freeze; no matter how their souls howled, they could not break the time stop.

Xiao Yu's current profound grasp of the Space‑Time Law deepened the binding power of the Phantom Slash.

The 31 Mechanical Race Immortal Kings faced a hundred Xiao Yus, a hundred Open Heavens, and a hundred dark rivers that surged straight into their divine bodies.

"Boom!"

The phantom vanished, time resumed, and shockwaves surged in all directions.

"What's the point!" Xiao Yu sighed; he hadn't wanted to start a massive slaughter now, but some people insist on courting death.

Since the Universe Venerable of the Altar Tower ambushed and tried to kill him earlier, Xiao Yu has already planned to slay at least ten thousand Mechanical Race Immortal Kings in this Star Tower as revenge.

He originally planned to slowly kill in the Forbidden Space, but who would have thought he would encounter the emergence of the Sealed Star, such a prosperous age. Xiao Yu then changed his plan, intending to unleash a great slaughter at the final moment.

Who would have thought the Morning Mix King would stick his neck out, letting him kill.

Xiao Yu collected the World Rings from the bodies of 31 Mechanical Race King Immortals, sighing, "To release a hundred Open Heavens in an instant, the consumption is truly huge; if it weren't for my internal world being so vast, I probably couldn't withstand such consumption!"

Even an ordinary Realm Lord, no matter how deep their understanding of the laws, could not withstand such consumption.

So fierce!

Who on earth is this fierce person, Ape Three Sword?

Who would have thought they're so strong, killing 31 Immortal Lord Kings in one go, six of whom are Sealed King Limit Extreme Strongers.

The Insect Queen Immortal Nan Cheng's Insect Race side's nine-person aura was instantly suppressed, no longer having the dominance they had when confronting the Mechanical Race before.
