Lin Yuan was aware that 'Shang Shan' was not dead, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
With Lin Yuan's cultivation speed, 'Shang Shan' could be crushed by him now. Not to mention in the future? The one who should be afraid is the other party.
"Let's take a look at the spoils."
Lin Yuan placed the giant planet back on the star path. This planet, being used as a nest by two special life forms of the eighth rank, was naturally extraordinary. It was considered rare among higher life planets, containing a large amount of gentle cosmic energy.
When Lin Yuan attacked 'Aodu' and 'Shang Shan', he also tried not to damage the planet, containing the aftermath on the planet's surface.
"Special life blood essence."
First was the large amount of blood essence collected by Lin Yuan. The special life forms in the universe are scarce, many of them born from the universe itself and unable to reproduce. Their blood essence is far stronger than that of humans.
Human civilization had long attempted to integrate the blood of these special life forms into human bloodlines to produce stronger offspring. Thus, the blood essence potion was born.
Through special means, the blood of special life forms was extracted and made into blood essence potions. These could be integrated into the bloodlines of future generations, providing those evolvers who wanted to establish families with the means to prosper for a long time.
"Speaking of which, I still have a blood essence potion of the three-headed ice wolf."Lin Yuan seemed to remember something and a smile appeared on his face.
The three-headed ice wolf blood essence potion was one of the legacies of the eighth-rank evolver Ouyin. It came from the special life form, the three-headed ice wolf.
In order to create this blood essence potion, Ouyin had slaughtered countless three-headed ice wolves.
"Probably able to make eight or nine blood essence potions."
Lin Yuan roughly calculated based on the blood left by 'Shang Shan' and 'Aodu'. These two special life forms were enormous, almost comparable to ordinary life planets. Naturally, their blood was far more abundant than that of the three-headed ice wolf.
Although the three-headed ice wolf was also a special life form, it was only tens of meters in size, far smaller than 'Shang Shan' and 'Aodu'.
"Eight or nine blood essence potions, even if each one is only worth three thousand universe crystals, that would still be nearly thirty thousand universe crystals."
Lin Yuan was in a good mood.
Many human eighth-rank evolvers' combined treasures and weapons would only be worth about ten thousand universe crystals. And now, Lin Yuan's harvest, just in blood essence, equaled the entire wealth of three eighth-rank evolvers.
This was even with him underestimating the blood essence potions. In fact, most blood essence potions were worth more than three thousand universe crystals each.
Next, Lin Yuan began to examine the many treasures of the two special life forms.
"Truly wealthy, no wonder they asked for twenty thousand universe crystals," Lin Yuan marveled.
The many treasures, ores, weapons, and more collected by 'Shang Shan' and 'Aodu' totaled over sixty thousand universe crystals. 'Shang Shan' contributed over forty thousand, and 'Aodu' contributed over twenty thousand universe crystals.
Adding in the blood essence potions made from their blood, Lin Yuan's harvest this time was estimated to exceed one hundred thousand universe crystals.
"Unexpectedly, the universe crystals for the planet's transformation were recovered so quickly?"
Lin Yuan's face showed a smile.
The B-level transformation of the main star of the Milky Way had cost Lin Yuan one hundred thousand universe crystals. Lin Yuan had originally thought that these one hundred thousand universe crystals would only be earned back when the Milky Way Star Domain was fully operational and the trade channels were established. But now, just by clearing out two special life forms, he had 'broken even.'
"Continue."
"There are still a few more targets."
Lin Yuan immediately headed in another direction.
After obtaining detailed information on the special life forms and alien loners entrenched in the Milky Way Star Domain, Lin Yuan categorized these special life forms and alien loners into two types.
The first type were those like 'Shang Shan' and 'Aodu,' who fed on planets. Keeping them was harmful and not beneficial to the Milky Way Star Domain. Therefore, Lin Yuan either killed these special life forms directly to eliminate future troubles or drove them out of the Milky Way Star Domain.
The second type were those who had no significant impact on the star domain and could form a 'symbiotic' relationship with the Milky Way Star Domain. Some special life form groups could produce rare treasures that had astonishing effects on human evolvers.
As long as these special life form groups were obedient, Lin Yuan was willing to let them stay, even assigning people to protect them.
Lin Yuan's current target was the first type of special life forms and alien loners.
After tasting the benefits, Lin Yuan knew he needed to be as quick as possible, or once the news spread, those special life forms might flee in fear.
On a desolate planet, Lin Yuan appeared, his vast world force shadow suppressing the entire planet.
Two alien loners immediately knelt, "Spare us, my lord, spare us."
Compared to 'Shang Shan,' the intelligence of these two alien loners was clearly lacking, not even recognizing the Milky Way Star Lord.
Even if they didn't know Lin Yuan's identity, the pressure from the world force alone made them feel the end of the world. This man in green armor far surpassed them in strength, likely being an eighth-rank pinnacle powerhouse.
"My lord, there must be some misunderstanding between us. Please give us a chance," the two alien loners pleaded humbly.
Lin Yuan looked down at them from the sky, "You feed on the souls of living beings. If I let you stay here, wouldn't my human citizens become your food in the future?"
"You cannot be allowed to stay."
Lin Yuan pronounced their sentence.
Taking advantage of the fact that human citizens had not yet migrated here, he needed to eliminate all hidden dangers. Otherwise, it would be troublesome later.
"Human citizens migrating here."
The two alien loners felt a chill. They indeed liked to consume the souls of living beings but had never harmed human citizens. However, before they could think further, their consciousness plunged into darkness.
With a thought from Lin Yuan, the two alien loners turned to dust.
In theory, these two alien loners had not harmed any humans. But to be safe, Lin Yuan couldn't be bothered to differentiate. After all, they were aliens who liked to consume souls and couldn't create much value.
Killing them was simpler.
As for expelling them? The surrounding areas were all human civilization's star domains. Expelling them to other star domains would only harm more humans.
Half a day later, Lin Yuan appeared before a star.
In the distance, an alien covered in scales with a sharp horn was fleeing frantically.
When this alien saw Lin Yuan standing in the distance, it stopped, full of despair.
"Milky Way Star Lord, I admit my actions were indeed cruel, but they were only against the Shadow Clan," the horned alien couldn't help but say.
Not long ago, it learned that the Milky Way Star Lord was hunting down some brutally violent special life forms and alien loners. However, before it could react, the Milky Way Star Lord appeared.
Without thinking, the alien began fleeing frantically. It didn't know why the newly entered eighth-rank Milky Way Star Lord could easily kill several eighth-rank aliens. But running was the best option.
"If that's the case, why did you stay in this star domain after the Shadow Clan retreated?" Lin Yuan asked calmly.
"I..."
The horned alien was speechless.
It stayed to test the temperament of the new star lord. If the new star lord was lenient, it would continue its old ways, occasionally feeding on human citizens for cultivation. If the new star lord was strict, it would leave obediently.
This was the mindset of most special life forms and alien loners.
But they didn't expect the Milky Way Star Lord to be so decisive, giving them no chance to test him.
The next moment, the horned alien turned to dust.
Lin Yuan didn't waste words with the horned alien, killing it instantly before moving on to the next target.
According to his classification of special life form groups and alien loners, if they belonged to the first type, he would kill them if possible.
Many star lords of human civilization acted gently, not taking lethal action as long as no harm was done to human citizens. But Lin Yuan's methods were clearly more ruthless. In the vast universe, strength was respected. If human civilization ever declined, those aliens wouldn't show mercy when slaughtering humans.
So even if some alien loners hadn't harmed human citizens yet, as long as they had the thought, Lin Yuan would kill them.
The rule of 'judge by deeds, not by intentions' applied to fellow humans. For aliens who weren't submissive to human civilization or allied with it, Lin Yuan wouldn't show mercy.
Forgiveness was not granted.
A few days later, Lin Yuan had almost cleared out the first type of special life forms and alien loners.
Ninety percent of these special life forms and alien loners died by Lin Yuan's hand, while the remaining ten percent escaped by luck.
He couldn't help it. He acted one by one, the news spread quickly, and some aliens, whose true bodies were not in the Milky Way Star Domain, escaped upon learning of their avatars' deaths.
But overall, Lin Yuan's goal was largely achieved. The first type of special life forms and alien loners had mostly disappeared from the Milky Way Star Domain.
As Lin Yuan carried out his massacre of special life forms and alien loners, it naturally alarmed other forces.
Most of these forces were special life form groups categorized by Lin Yuan as the second type, with the potential to aid the Milky Way Star Domain's development, so he didn't bother them.
"In this star domain, many seventh and eighth-rank powerhouses have fallen. I personally knew thirteen seventh-rank ones and one eighth-rank who have died."
"What's going on? Those eighth-rank special life forms had incredible survival skills. Who could kill them so easily?"
"Some alien powerhouses I knew also died."
In a special life form group called the 'Flower God Tribe,' many strong members gathered, discussing anxiously.
Although the Flower God Tribe was a special life form group, its combat abilities were weak, and it could reproduce normally.
The members of the Flower God Tribe could brew a wine called 'Flower God Wine,' which most life forms could drink to gain short-term clarity of mind, aiding in the comprehension of rules and mysteries.
Because of this, the Flower God Tribe barely survived by offering 'Flower God Wine' when the Shadow Clan ruled this region.
"Have you noticed that the dead seventh and eighth-rank powerhouses were the cruel ones who consumed planets?"
A strong member of the Flower God Tribe, who looked like a young girl, suddenly spoke. She was a seventh-rank powerhouse and currently one of the strongest in the Flower God Tribe.
However, the seventh-rank powerhouses of the Flower God Tribe had the weakest combat abilities, even inferior to those human evolvers who relied on seventh-rank evolution potions to reach the basic destructive power of the seventh rank.
"Yes."
"That's true."
"Even an eighth-rank powerhouse died, but our Flower God Tribe is still fine."
Other strong members of the Flower God Tribe realized and discussed it.
At this moment, a strong member of the Flower God Tribe with butterfly wings changed her expression slightly, stood up, and said to the others, "Everyone, I just received some news."
This member looked around with a serious expression.
"Received news?"
"What news?"
"Quick, tell us, what news?"
The strong members of the Flower God Tribe asked. Any news received at this time was likely related to the mysterious deaths of seventh and eighth-rank aliens.
"The one targeting those seventh and eighth-rank aliens is the Milky Way Star Lord, a peerless genius of human civilization. This time, he acted to eliminate all unstable factors within the Milky Way Star Domain," said the strong member of the Flower God Tribe solemnly.
"The Milky Way Star Lord?"
"I know this human genius, but isn't he just newly entered into the eighth rank?"
"Yes, newly entered the eighth rank, yet killing those nearly eighth-rank pinnacle alien powerhouses as if slaughtering pigs and dogs?"
The strong members of the Flower God Tribe were shocked.
Those eighth-rank special life forms and alien loners were skilled in combat and had unimaginable means, yet they were killed?
There were two possibilities.
One was that these eighth-rank special life forms and alien loners were overrated and weak. But this possibility was almost zero. If that were the case, how could they have coexisted with the Shadow Clan for so many years? Did they think the Shadow Clan was a charity?
The other possibility was that the Milky Way Star Lord possessed unfathomable strength, enabling him to easily deal with those special life forms and alien loners.
"I'm glad our Flower God Tribe is still useful. Otherwise..." The strong member of the Flower God Tribe sighed.
According to her information, the Milky Way Star Lord's killings were not indiscriminate but selective.
The Flower God Tribe posed no threat to the star domain and could produce 'Flower God Wine,' beneficial to evolvers.
So they were spared by the Milky Way Star Lord.
"Alright."
"I don't care what you all think."
The strong member of the Flower God Tribe steadied herself, concealing her shock, and continued, "Previously, the rulers of this star domain were the Shadow Clan and those powerful special life forms and alien loners."
"Now, there's only one ruler in this star domain."
Pausing for a moment, she solemnly said:
"That is the Milky Way Star Lord."
