Devouring the Stars: The Master of Metaphysics

Original secret realm, Giant God Star.

After Li Qi logged off from the virtual universe, he came to a private room on the third floor of the inn and sat on the two-meter-wide window sill. He looked out the window at the street and saw a crowded scene.

Looking at the street scene, Li Qi whispered: "The Hero Trial is indeed a grand event held once a hundred years on Giant God Star. There are many people coming to watch."

"Hmm... what is that?" He looked into the distance and saw a technological creation on the roof of the house.

Giant God Star joined the Virtual Universe Company, but the civilization on the planet is still like the natives. Except for a few specific cities where spacecrafts are parked, there are not many technological creations in other places.

Ding Ding!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of the innkeeper came from outside the door, "Your Highness, the Lichuan City Dojo has just sent a message asking you to go and meet with other participants in the main competition of the Hero Trial."

"Okay, I'll leave now."

Li Qi said, and flew out of the window directly, flying towards the Lichuan City Dojo.

...

More than an hour later

Lichuan City Dojo, on the central stage.

There were more than 30 people standing there, and Li Qi was suspended in the air, flying at the same height as the heads of other people.

"The 27 people present are the contestants participating in the main competition of the Hero Trial this time."

The owner of the Lichuan City Dojo, Xi Gang, who was at the realm master level, said: "This time, I called everyone here to tell you that this Hero Trial will be divided into two stages, and the first stage will be held on Changji Island."

"Later, a realm master will take you to Changji Island on a spaceship."

After the realm master Xi Gang finished speaking, several contestants couldn't help but talk about it.

"This time, the Hero Trial will be divided into two stages, and the first stage is still on Changji Island."

"Changji Island! That's a holy place for hunting. I didn't expect that I, who was at the cosmic level, could go in and hunt. It was really unexpected!"

"Yeah! I didn't expect..."

The Giant Gods love to die, and they certainly love such exciting activities as hunting.

However, the number of fierce beasts on the Giant God Star has become relatively scarce after countless years of hunting. If they had not set up a protected area for the fierce beasts to recuperate, these fierce beasts would have been extinct long ago.

Li Qi listened to the discussions of several people and understood what kind of place Changji Island was. "With strong strength and a love of exciting hunting activities, it is no wonder that fierce beasts are kept in the protected area."

Swish, swish, swish...

Just as the Giant God contestants were rejoicing, figures appeared on the stage one after another, each of them exuding the aura of a powerful realm master.

A total of 27 realm masters came to the stage. They did not speak, but waited respectfully for something.

Swish!

With a flash of light, a man with arcs jumping on his body and exuding powerful pressure appeared in the center of the stage.

With the appearance of the man, an invisible pressure enveloped the stage, making everyone on the stage feel a little scared, especially the contestants who were only at the universe level were under tremendous pressure.

Feeling the pressure from the man, Li Qi thought to himself, "It's the Immortal God."

The moment the man appeared, all the realm masters bowed their heads and said respectfully, "Greetings, sir!"

"Yes."

The immortal god nodded gently, and then cast his eyes on the 27 contestants. His eyes stayed on Li Qi for a while, and then introduced the rules of the first stage of the Hero Trial.

"This Hero Trial is divided into two stages. The first stage is held on Changji Island. Each of the 27 contestants will carry a light brain to compete. It is forbidden to turn off the light brain during the competition. Anyone who turns off the light brain will be eliminated directly!"

"Your goal in entering Changji Island is to hunt a domain master-level beast alone according to the type of beast displayed on the light brain."

"Although the first stage of this session is to hunt domain master-level beasts, this time it is different from what you imagine."

"In this first stage, in addition to the task itself, you have to You are not allowed to hunt other beasts except the target. Once you kill your prey, you will be considered to have completed the first stage. "

Continued: "Only sixteen people can advance to the second stage of the Brave Trial, and these sixteen people are the first sixteen to complete the first stage."

Hearing the words of the immortal gods, the faces of the giant god contestants changed, and they were all disappointed. They thought that they could have a good hunt on Changji Island this time, but they didn't expect that this idea was extinguished not long after it was born.

Ignoring the expressions of the contestants, he announced directly: "Now start distributing light brains and randomly select hunting targets."

Two realm masters stepped forward, one of them waved his hand, and a huge light curtain appeared in front of everyone, with the avatars of twenty-seven contestants on it, and the hunting targets next to each avatar were constantly changing.

And the other realm master took out twenty-seven light brains and sent them to the twenty-seven people with mental power.

Li Qi took the watch-like optical computer and looked at the other 27 people. Seeing that they all had watches of the right size, he put them on his wrists like the others.

"Now... turn on the optical computer." He gave the order.

Li Qi and others turned on the optical computer, and then the hunting targets next to the portraits of the people on the huge light screen could be stopped.

"Thunderskin Beast."

Looking at the hunting target on the small light screen on his wrist that was consistent with the huge light screen, he couldn't help but read it out softly.

"Now that all of you have assigned hunting targets, let's set off for Changji Island now."

With that said, a world master came to the contestants and took them flying into the sky.

Buzz!

Waves of world power flashed one after another, spaceships were taken out from the inner worlds of the main bodies, and there were suddenly twenty-seven spaceships in the sky.

"Your Highness, please."

In the respectful voice of the world lord, Li Qi entered the D-class spacecraft.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

After all the contestants entered the spacecraft, all the spacecraft accelerated towards Changji Island.

"Suddenly, this year's Brave Trial was changed to a two-stage competition, and the venue for the first stage was also set to be Changji Island."

After all the spaceships left, I wondered to myself, "I don't know what you mean, sir?"

…    Titan, Changji Island.

A spaceship stopped at this island with a diameter of millions of kilometers. The door of the spacecraft opened with a click, and Li Qi flew out of the spacecraft.

Whoosh!

After sending the people to Changji Island, the D-class spacecraft flew in the direction it came from.

"According to the introduction from the realm master just now, Changji Island Master has cosmic-level, domain-lord-level and realm-lord-level ferocious beasts."

Watching the spaceship go away, Li Qi thought to himself: "Although there are World Lord-level ferocious beasts in the center of the island, these ferocious beasts are controlled in the central area of ​​the island. As long as you don't enter the central area, you will not encounter World Lord-level ferocious beasts."

Whoosh!

His body flashed and turned into a stream of light from the sky toward the area where the Territory Lord-level ferocious beasts were active.

"The activity area of ​​Territory Lord-level ferocious beasts is mainly in the inner periphery of the island, and the outer area is the activity area of ​​universe-level ferocious beasts and below."

"This first stage is a time trial. If you want to enter the second stage, you need to be in the top 16."

"Um……"

Li Qi, who was flying, found a large group of flying ferocious beasts ahead, flying towards him.

"Trouble, according to the rules I cannot kill other ferocious beasts except the target. Once I kill non-target ferocious beasts, I will be eliminated and I have to avoid them."

Whoosh!

Li Qi's body fell instantly, and he also used "Instant Image" at the same time, leaving an afterimage in the air to attract the attention of the group of ferocious birds.

The group of ferocious birds and beasts attacked him and directly tore him apart. After leaving an afterimage, he kept chirping "chirping", and he didn't know whether he was angry or proud.

Uh-huh!

In the rain forest below, Li Qi used his mental power to scan the surroundings, moving between the trees like a ghost, avoiding those stellar and cosmic-level ferocious beasts.

Fortunately, his small size allows him to hide his body more easily, which makes it easier for him to avoid monsters.

The rule against attacking non-targets made Li Qi feel very uncomfortable, because on the way to the area where Domain Lord-level ferocious beasts were active, he almost attacked them several times.

…

After avoiding flying for more than an hour, Li Qi finally arrived at the area where the Territory Lord-level ferocious beasts were active.

"Where is the Thunderskin Beast?"

He began to search for the location of the thunder-skin beast, but the area where this domain master-level ferocious beast moved was quite large, and it would take a lot of time to search for the thunder-skin beast.

After searching for more than half an hour, Li Qi found a pile of ore in a cave. This pile of ore was F-grade metal ore. Although there were dozens of tons of it, it was just a pile of raw ore. If it was to be used To refine weapons or something, you still need to refine this pile of ore.

The unexpected joy of obtaining F-grade metal ore made his originally depressed mood a little better. He estimated that the value of these ores after refining was thousands of Hunyuan units.

"finally found you!"

After searching for another hour, Li Qi found a ninth-level Domain Lord level thunder-skinned beast. It was a grey-white scaly beast hundreds of meters long, resembling a triceratops.

Whoosh!

Li Qi flashed like black lightning and charged directly towards the thunder-skinned beast. He used the surrounding trees as cover and quickly approached the thunder-skinned beast.

"die!"

Li Qi shouted angrily in his heart, and when he rushed towards the thunder-skinned beast, he waved his ferocious black hand, and the dark claw shadows immediately appeared, and at the same time, several black claw shadows covered the body of the thunder-skinned beast.

Tsk!

The black claw shadow was so powerful that it easily tore the thunder-skinned beast's gray scales into pieces, leaving several hideous wounds bleeding.

roar!

The thunderskin beast with gray-white scales and a triceratops-like shape was huge, and its jet-black claws were powerful in attack, causing the thunderskin beast to roar in pain and whip its tail violently.

Li Qi used a secret technique to avoid the thunderskin beast's tail flicking attack like a ghost, but he also felt that there was some trouble, "The huge beast is trouble."

The wounds on the thunderskin beast's body were bloody and seemed to be serious, but in fact they only tore its scales, and the flesh and blood under the scales were not deeply injured.

This injury was nothing to the Thunderskin Beast, which was hundreds of meters long, but the sudden intensity of the attack shocked it, because its proud scales were torn to pieces with ease. .

Whoosh!

Li Qi took action again, moving like a ghost, and real figures appeared one after another, making it impossible for the thunder-skinned beast to identify who it was.

Uh-huh!

A huge claw shadow appeared, like the claws of a gigantic beast, overwhelmingly hitting the thunder-skinned beast.

roar!

The thunderskin beast roared and thrust its head upwards, trying to resist the attack of the huge claw shadow with its three strong bone horns.

Snap!

The huge claw shadow slapped on the three bone horns of the thunder skin beast. It seemed like a powerful blow, but in fact nothing happened. The huge claw shadow burst like a bubble.

When the Thunderskin Beast resisted the attack of the huge claw shadow, Li Qi's body had already flashed to its previous wound. The ferocious black gauntlet in his hand poked out and he pulled it down suddenly!

Tsk!

A jet-black claw shadow appeared, grabbing the torn scale wound of the thunder-skinned beast, and a piece of flesh and blood several meters in diameter was torn off, and blood immediately spattered.

roar!

The severe pain caused the thunderskin beast to roar wildly, and at the same time it kept flicking its tail and stomping on the ground, trying to attack Li Qi who injured it.

Li Qi dodged and easily avoided the Thunderskin Beast's counterattack, and then went up to inflict a wound on the Thunderskin Beast, causing the latter to roar and struggle even more crazily.

…

One minute later.

"The body of this ferocious beast is really tough."

Li Qi, who was covered in blood, looked at the thunder-skinned beast whose life core was crushed and fell to the ground dead. He couldn't help but secretly thought: "The ferocious beast has no intelligence, but its body has been strengthened to almost the limit. It is even stronger than the monsters of the same level." many."

"And it's so big that even a person like me, who has a very high understanding of the law, will have to spend some effort to kill it!"

If it were a human domain lord, even a domain lord who understood the law would be able to end the battle in a very short time.

But facing a ferocious beast with a huge body and extremely tough body, he has to spend some effort to find its life core. The hidden life core is even harder to be discovered by the enemy due to its large size.

"There are many benefits to being large." Li Qixin said: "Especially for those strong men with huge divine bodies. Even if they face opponents who are stronger than themselves, they can still use their huge divine bodies to consume the opponent to death."

"This Titan Power Fruit, the most precious treasure of the Titan Tribe, I heard they say it has the effect of increasing the height of the body." Li Qi secretly said: "When I get the championship dose, my requirements are not high, as long as I can increase the height of my body to Thirty or forty meters is enough."

Thirty to forty meters, this body height, it is no exaggeration to say that it has exceeded 99% of human beings.

Many immortals and even venerables would have a smaller chance of falling if they had this physical height.

"Ranked fourth, which is a pretty good result."

After looking at the ranking of the optical brain on his wrist, Li Qi got up and flew towards the distance. There was a meeting point there where he could go and take the spaceship after completing the mission.
