Chapter 2921: Anointing A Champion

Chapter 2921: Anointing A Champion

The Cyclops King's eyes flared. "Remember, in the future, you must clean up every battlefield!

"Planets that have been destroyed but still have living creatures must be fully destroyed!

"Tear those creatures that survive in those places apart!

"Instead, we will destroy those creatures, and all of our enemies!"

All of the giant cyclops roared at the Cyclops King's announcement.

Lu Yin glanced over at Mu Ke. Coincidentally, the man was also looking at Lu Yin at this moment.

Lu Yin then looked at Mu Xie, Wang Jian, Xia Qin, and everyone else in the second battalion.

Every last person in the second battalion was now looking at the giant cyclops as though they were enemies.

"Senior Brother, how long?"

"If Daheng cooperates, not long."

"Leave the rest to the second battalion."

"Doing this may create an uproar within the Sixverse Association."

"That doesn't matter. I, Lu Yin, represent the Sixverse Association."

A blade flickered across the universe, and pain erupted from the Cyclops King's back. He turned around to see Mu Ke descending, his blade raised high and swinging down.

The Cyclops King was startled by this development. "Mu Ke, you want to kill me?"

Mu Ke did not respond. From the other side, Mr. Daheng attacked at the same time. The same scene as before reappeared, but this time, it was not the Mountain King being assaulted on all sides, but rather the Cyclops King.

Mu Xie and everyone else turned to slaughter the giant cyclops.

It was a rare occurrence, but Ku Wei was completely serious at this moment. These super giants did not possess any trace of humanity in them. It might have been mere coincidence that the mountain-backed giants had cooperated with Aeternus. After all, it seemed quite possible that, if Aeternus had instead approached the giant cyclops, they would have readily cooperated with the Aeternals as well.

The super giants’ temperament could clearly be seen. Neither the mountain-backed giants nor the giant cyclops saw humans as creatures equal to the giants. The super giants were another race, and just like the Aeternals, they would readily attack humans at any time.

Given the threat that the giants posed, it was best to destroy them.

"Mu Ke, don't you want the Giants' Purgatory to block the Aeternals? I have been freed from the laws of this universe and can now leave this place. I will join your Sixverse Association and help you fight against the Aeternals. Do you really dare to kill me?

"I can be of great assistance."

A smile crept across Lu Yin's face. "You can be of great assistance regardless of whether you’re dead or alive."

The Cyclops King heard Lu Yin’s comment, and he was instantly reminded of the strange scene of when Lu Yin had attempted to anoint the Mountain King as a champion. The Cyclops King felt a chill strike his heart. "Are you the one? Are you the one who wants to attack me? I have an agreement with the Cyclic Universe! It’s an agreement with the Great Sovereign! You can't attack me!"

Regardless of what the Cyclops King said, Mu Ke did not hesitate in the slightest. After having fought against the Mountain King and killed that giant, the humans saw greater success while attacking the Cyclops King.

Mr. Daheng secretly cursed Lu Yin as a madman. There are too many people like this Cyclops King in existence. Ganging up on the giant and killing it would have a great impact on their reputations. In particular, how would they justify this matter to the other parallel universes of the Endless Frontier? Just thinking about the ramifications of this battle made Mr. Daheng’s teeth ache.

However, Lu Yin had given the order, and Mr. Daheng would not refuse. While killing the Cyclops King was indeed dangerous, Mu Ke was acting as the vanguard, so Mr. Daheng cooperated with the other Arborean.

First, the crusade had already destroyed the Inorganic Universe, and now, they were also completely wiping out the giant cyclops. This was after the mountain-backed giants had been eliminated by the crusade. While the crusade had accomplished great things during its conquest of the Endless Frontier, there were certain losses that could not be avoided.

Lu Yin did not care. He no longer needed to worry about the opinions of anyone in the Sixverse Association.

As Wang Wen had once said, there were certain matters that people could know about and which could be publicized, and there were others that people did not need to know about.

The Cyclops King fought desperately, but he could not escape his fate after being surrounded and attacked by the second battalion’s powerhouses.

Before dying, the giant cursed viciously, looking exactly like the little boy.

Lu Yin calmly looked at the giant. "You’re the one who taught me that any creature that holds hatred towards me should be destroyed."

Yes, it was undoubtedly a Star Devourer.

"A Star Devourer? What’s that?" Mu Ke did not know the term. Such creatures had never appeared in the Sixverse Association before.

Mr. Daheng and the others were all staring at the beam of light.

Finally, once the monster had fully emerged from the tear in the void, it shook its body. All six of the beast’s eyes were closed, but Lu Yin did notice a difference between this beast and the one that he had seen before. The Star Devourer in the Giants' Purgatory’s head had a transparent portion right between its six eyes. Within that transparent portion was a rod. There was something flowing through it, which made it look like a pipe.

Lu Yin shared what he knew of Star Devourers, and Mr. Daheng frowned. "I believe that I’ve heard of such creatures before."

Mu Ke sounded solemn as he commented, "There are many strange creatures throughout the megaverse, but it is rare for any to grow large enough to devour stars."

Lu Yin continued to stare at the Star Devourer. How many stars and planets had such a large beast swallowed?

This Star Devourer was not any smaller than the previous Cyclops King.

Why had it suddenly appeared?

"Hmm? I believe that I just heard someone call me a Star Devourer. That’s an ancient name," a hoarse, deep voice called out. It did not seem very loud, and yet it echoed throughout the entire universe.

One of the Star Devourer’s six closed eyes suddenly snapped open, and the eye rolled to stare at the second battalion, taking particular note of Mu Ke. "What did you just call me, human?"

"Star Devourer, why have you come here?" Lu Yin asked, drawing the beast’s attention.

The sole open eye turned to look at Lu Yin. "I want this universe."

Lu Yin's eyes grew cold. "Did the Aeternals send you here?"

The suggestion of a smile appeared in the astral beast’s eye. "You could interpret things that way. They said that they would allow me to seize a universe and provide me with enough stars to eat, granting me all the stars in the universe."

Lu Yin's expression changed. "It appears that you are one of Aeternus’s outside allies."

Mu Ke said, "Just as our Sixverse Association has outside allies whom we can call upon, so too do the Aeternals. They are unable to hold out on their own any more, which is why they have called for help."

"This thing will not be easy to deal with." Mr. Daheng was afraid of the Star Devourer.

Just like Lu Yin, Mr. Daheng could tell that this Star Devourer was extremely powerful. How strong did an individual have to be for the Aeternals to entrust all of the Giants' Purgatory to them? This astral beast might not be much weaker than the Seven Skygods at their peak.

The Star Devourer rolled his eye before staring at the second battalion again. He focused on Lu Yin, Mu Ke, and the other powerhouses for a moment before eventually turning his attention to the jiao. The Star Devourer was quite interested in Lu Yin’s mount. "Is this a meal that was prepared for me?

"While I prefer stars, I’ve also devoured many creatures, both humans and astral beasts. They can be quite delicious."

The jiao grew increasingly nervous, and it subconsciously pulled back a bit.

Lu Yin's expression fell further back.

Mu Ke suddenly attacked. Given his level of strength, he dared challenge most people. The chances that his opponent could instantly defeat the Arborean was extremely slim.

The attack sliced through the void and pierced the pillar of light to directly strike the Star Devourer’s body.

The Star Devourer’s huge body was cut open by the attack, and the beast stared at Mu Ke. "Human, you are completely unreasonable. I never said that I want to eat you, but now I’ve changed my mind. I will devour you."

The beast then bent his limbs and pushed. The void collapsed, and the enormous body shot towards the second battalion with incredible speed.

Lu Yin snapped, "Jiao, hit it!"
