"Still struggling?" Ye Chuan sneered. "Refine it immediately!"
The starry sky behemoth let out a desperate howl.
It could feel its soul being devoured bit by bit, and its consciousness was gradually blurring.
As the apex predator of the universe, born at the top of the food chain, it had never bowed to any existence.
But at this moment, it felt true fear for the first time.
It took a starry sky behemoth a hundred million years to mature, and it shouldn't have any natural enemies.
Ultimately, it lowered its proud head.
Its three scarlet eyes slowly closed, and its massive body began to shrink violently, completely swallowed by Ye Chuan's chaotic power.
"Not bad," Ye Chuan said with a satisfied expression.
What a massive chaos avatar.
Just one of its nails was larger than his own planet.
Yooooooooo~
"Not bad. From now on, you will be called Black Beast." Ye Chuan summoned the avatar of the starry sky behemoth, though it was currently compressed to the size of a palm.
Starry sky behemoths seemed to have many different appearances. The one Kalen had looked somewhat like a dragon, while the one in his hand looked more like a monster fish.
His addiction to collecting was acting up.
At this moment, the cabin door of the star shuttle slowly opened, and Lin Xi stumbled out.
"Mr. Ye! The battle just now was terrifying! I thought... I thought you would never come back!"
A single fight had shattered several planets, leaving the little girl completely dumbfounded.
Was this even a battle she was allowed to watch from such a close distance?
Kalen stood to the side. "Lord Demon King, are we returning to the warp channel now?"
"Yes, let's go." Ye Chuan nodded. "We've been delayed for so long, it's about time we check out the Apocalypse Galaxy."
The three boarded the star shuttle, and the pure white spacecraft turned around, flying toward the warp channel.
...
The moment the star shuttle disappeared into the entrance of the warp channel, the space that had just experienced an epic battle suddenly began to tremble violently!
Bizarre ripples spread out in the once peaceful darkness.
The starlight began to dim, and cosmic rays became utterly chaotic.
An aura billions of times more terrifying than the starry sky behemoth from earlier slowly permeated from the deepest depths of the universe.
Crack—
A massive rift tore open in space.
An eye slowly opened.
This eye was so large that it defied description.
The starry sky behemoth from before was as insignificant as an ant in front of it. Its single eye was like an entire galaxy.
There was no emotion in the dark golden pupil, only an icy, deathly silence, as if it had existed for hundreds of millions of years.
It quietly stared in the direction Ye Chuan had disappeared, watching for a very, very long time.
Then, it slowly closed its eye.
The spatial rift healed, and the universe returned to tranquility.
It was as if nothing had ever happened.
...
The star shuttle flew smoothly through the warp channel.
Ye Chuan leaned back in his seat, resting with his eyes closed.
He was feeling the power of the starry sky behemoth inside him; this power was even greater than he had imagined.
"To think such a huge one was actually just a juvenile," Ye Chuan muttered to himself.
"I wonder how big a true adult is. It would be great if I could catch a few more. Forming a starry sky behemoth legion would definitely be majestic."
The New Era was indeed thrilling. His combat power wouldn't go to waste, and he could freely unleash his strength as a Heavenly Immortal.
It was just that the powerhouses here seemed even more terrifying. If he ran into someone like Empress Jiuhua, Ye Chuan genuinely wouldn't be a match.
He would only be treated as a plaything.
Right at this moment, the main control screen of the star shuttle suddenly lit up, and Su Rui's figure appeared on it.
She looked even more exhausted than last time, with deep helplessness in her eyes.
"Mr. Ye Chuan, it is good to see you again," Su Rui spoke first, her tone much more respectful than before.
"I am Su Rui, Vice Speaker of the Federation's Supreme Council. Regarding our previous conflict, the Supreme Council has held an emergency meeting and reached a final decision."
"Oh? Let's hear it." Ye Chuan opened his eyes, looking at Su Rui on the screen with a half-smile.
"We are willing to exile Augustus and his family, Kalen and his family, and all personnel involved in the operations against you—hundreds of thousands of people in total—to the desolate galaxy designated X-73." Su Rui took a deep breath and enunciated every word clearly.
"Furthermore, we will completely destroy the X-73 Galaxy as compensation to you."
Lin Xi looked at the screen in astonishment.
She hadn't expected the Federation to actually be willing to sacrifice an entire galaxy and hundreds of thousands of lives just to earn Ye Chuan's forgiveness.
Ye Chuan raised an eyebrow but didn't say a word, simply watching Su Rui quietly.
Meeting Ye Chuan's gaze, Su Rui continued:
"Mr. Ye Chuan, this is the greatest sincerity we can offer."
"The X-73 Galaxy is a desolate, uninhabited system. Destroying it will not cause any innocent casualties, but it is also an important resource galaxy for our Federation."
"If you are still unsatisfied and insist on destroying the Apocalypse Galaxy, then we will have no choice but to pour the entire strength of the Federation into fighting you to the bitter end."
"Even if the final result is mutual destruction, we have no other choice."
Her tone was very calm. This was the Federation's bottom line. They could compromise, they could make sacrifices, but they would absolutely not sit back and wait for death.
Ye Chuan suddenly began to laugh.
"Alright, I accept these terms."
Su Rui visibly breathed a sigh of relief, her taut nerves finally relaxing.
"However, I have one request," Ye Chuan added.
"Please speak," Su Rui said hastily. "As long as it's within our power, we will certainly satisfy your request."
"When you destroy the X-73 Galaxy, I want to watch it on-site." A hint of amusement flashed in Ye Chuan's eyes.
"It just so happens I've never seen what a galaxy blowing up looks like. I'll treat it as watching fireworks."
Su Rui's expression instantly became complicated.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately just nodded.
"Alright, I agree. I will personally wait for you outside the X-73 Galaxy."
"No problem," Ye Chuan nodded. "Let's leave it at that for now."
With that said, he directly hung up the comms.
The screen went black.
Lin Xi looked at Ye Chuan and said softly, "Mr. Ye, isn't this... a bit too cruel?"
"Cruel?" Ye Chuan smiled.
"If I had been the one to lose today, the one being destroyed right now would be the Blue Origin Star. Being merciful to enemies is being cruel to oneself."
"And this is only the beginning. Did you think this would be enough?"
Besides, guilt by association for an entire family when one person makes a mistake wasn't anything rare. Otherwise, you beat the young one, the older one comes; you beat the older one, the ancient one comes.
If things went on like that, how could there ever be an end to it?
"The Federation is still somewhat useful to me, so I'll hold off on a massive massacre for now," Ye Chuan said.
Lin Xi, however, thought to herself: casually sacrificing hundreds of thousands of people is considered 'holding off on a massive massacre'?
"Um, Mr. Ye, didn't you say you've only been killing people for a year?"
"That's right."
"Then this..."
"Haven't I also only been cultivating for a year?"
Lin Xi: "?"
Huh?

Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force!

With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
