Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 495

Although comprehending any lineage of the primordial path allows one to directly enter the realm of God-King and construct the universe, some primordial paths are indeed closer to the universe itself.

For example, the Void Dao's compatibility with the universe surpasses even that of the Time Dao.

"Lend me your move, Empty Flow Waterfall!"

The Void Saint first sealed off the surrounding area to prevent the enemy from escaping, which was easy to defeat the Chaos Ruler, but killing him was incredibly difficult.

Before the laws of chaos, even domain-type treasures are only moderately effective, and are somewhat inferior to one's own original Dao secret techniques.

sizzle...

The overlapping spaces began to flow like water, with each space constantly squeezing and grinding against the others.

The babbling streams of space are born from collisions, and then continuously converge to form a mighty river.

The power of collisions and grinding between spaces, combined with the power of the primordial divine power, is astonishingly strong in both attack and attrition of the divine body.

"go with!"

Then the spatial torrent rushed towards the central Spia clone like a waterfall, completely locking down the surrounding space, leaving no escape but to withstand it.

"With this move, the gap in strength will be widened to the maximum, and you'll obediently perish."

The Sage of Emptiness felt a sense of pride. This was a secret technique he had created by combining his own Dao of Void. It was ineffective against those with greater strength, but extremely effective against those weaker than himself.

"It is indeed very uncomfortable to use force to suppress others."

Sphia's clones continued to swing their axes, annihilating each other with the spatial torrent.

The realm of the Void Saint is indeed higher. In the collision, some attacks cannot be annihilated by each other. The energy that is not annihilated is directly swept into the space. Under the grinding of space, it is transformed into the power of space and returned.

Sphia's clone attempted to attack the surrounding space, but the honeycomb-like spatial structure greatly weakened his attacks.

Each attack destroyed a significant amount of space, but it was quickly repaired.

Even if he tried to cut his way through, in this space where he couldn't determine his direction, he would be like someone trapped in a maze, constantly spinning around, giving the damaged space time to repair itself.

"A spatial maze!"

Sphia's clone waved its hand and cleaved open a spatial path, and beyond this space, there were countless other spaces.

Moreover, these cleaved spaces were instantly swallowed up by the surrounding torrents, transforming into an even greater force that rushed towards him.

As a force generated by the collision of spaces, it is virtually omnipresent in this environment, and its power grows stronger with the passage of time, because space is constantly in motion.

Most importantly, at this moment he was merely fighting against this void technique, posing no threat whatsoever to the real enemy.

At the deepest part of the spatial labyrinth, the Sage of Emptiness was constantly reinforcing and repairing the entire space while controlling the spatial torrent to attack Sphia's clone.

Without even needing to engage in direct combat, the Void Saint could easily suppress ordinary Chaos Rulers across layers of space. This was the strength of the eighth level, the pinnacle of Chaos Rulers.

"We must find a way to solve this maze."

With Sphia's mind divided, and given that her own strength was inferior to her opponent's, fighting on the opponent's home turf further diminished her chances of winning.

Solving this spatial maze might be difficult for other Chaos Overlords, but it still presents a chance for Sphia's avatar.

Given Lu Yunhe's situation, it's impossible for him to cultivate only one ultimate path, in addition to the Destruction Path of the World Beasts and the World Path of the Ultra Lord.

Lu Yunhe himself has also comprehended the three ultimate paths: the Eternal Path, the Void Path, and the Life Path.

The Ultimate Path of Eternity is the path he is particularly interested in, and it also contains the core of eternity, while the Path of Void comes from his understanding of the workings of the universe.

The Lord of Ultra merged with the operation of the primordial universe, and his power even transcended three thousand dimensions, which gave him an innate understanding of the Void Dao.

As for the Way of Life, one of the products manifested in this Origin World is the Way of Genes, and his level of understanding of it is also quite high.

Most importantly, these three ultimate paths have a lot in common. With mutual verification, they will not only not slow down the cultivation speed, but may even improve it.

Just like the true nature of the Void Dao, it has a very high degree of overlap with the Life Dao, and the Eternal Dao itself is inseparable from both the Void and Life.

"Geographical features!"

Sphia recalled in her mind the dimensional labyrinth in the chaotic void, which could be considered one of the ultimate manifestations of the void born from the rules of the source world.

If one can truly comprehend even a fraction of it, it is enough to enter the realm of the Void Dao's Earthly Forms.

In the mind of Sphia's clone, there was not only the structure of the dimensional labyrinth, but also the structure of the primordial universe and the structure of life genes. The three were combined, mutually constructing and deducing from each other, helping him to comprehend the earth aspect of the ultimate Dao of the void.

Although the Sage of Emptiness had gone further than him in his understanding of the earthly aspects, he too had not even entered the door, let alone fully comprehended it.

In this way, the Sphia clone does not need to surpass the opponent in terms of understanding of the earth element; it only needs to understand the intersection of the two and comprehend the opponent's attack.

Then, using the earth-based techniques that the opponent hasn't grasped, create corresponding weaknesses to fundamentally understand the opponent's attack.

Offense and defense are both easy!

It seemed that the Saint of Emptiness was attacking the clone of Sphia, who could only defend. However, unknowingly, the roles of the two began to reverse, and the clone launched an attack silently.

Within the earth-phase labyrinth constructed by the Sage of Emptiness, Sphia's clone no longer brute-forced its way through destruction, but instead moved about the labyrinth in a methodical manner.

The endless torrent of space, like a river, was driven by him, constantly destroying space after space.

"You want to find a flaw in my secret technique!"

As the ruler of chaos, his consciousness was naturally quite sharp, and he quickly noticed the actions of Sphia's clone.

In response, the Sage of Emptiness instantly became interested, because he discovered that the other party also seemed to have comprehended the Dao of Void, and was also inclined towards the Earth aspect.

What was originally just a simple battle against an enemy has now turned into a contest of ultimate power.

Although the Void Saint has reached the eighth level of the Chaos Ruler, his understanding of the ultimate path is only just beginning, and he is not necessarily much stronger than those at the seventh level.

"Let me see your understanding of the Dao of Void."

The Sage of Emptiness put the matter of the Origin Lineage and the Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom out of his mind; nothing could compare to his pursuit of the Great Dao.

If he can truly grasp the ultimate path, even if it's only at the Earthly stage, he can reach the ninth level and become a true God-King.

Rumble…

The entire Earthly Labyrinth changed once again, and under the full force of the Void Saint, the pressure on Sphia's clone instantly increased.

"break!"

Sphia's clone gripped the axe with both hands and cleaved fiercely at the spatial torrent behind him. The power of a Chaos Overlord directly froze time and space.

Taking advantage of that instant, Sphia's clone also unleashed an axe strike at the honeycomb-like spatial structure on the right, at the point where the spaces intersected.

The next moment, the spatial torrent that had been forcibly blocked by divine power also broke through the barrier and attacked again after accumulating for a while.

shhhhhh!

While resisting the spatial torrent, Sphia's clone continuously unleashed divine power into the surrounding space.

These divine powers did not destroy the surrounding space, but instead merged directly into it.

"A sneaky trick!"

On the other side, the Sage of Emptiness also saw these attacks. Without hesitation, he directly manipulated the space to change continuously, crushing these divine powers into nothingness.

A figure moved continuously through the earth-based maze. If these movements were traced, it would be found that the originally chaotic actions gradually became more regular, which meant that the Sphia clone was gradually mastering the rules of the maze.

Can a maze whose rules have been figured out still be called a maze?

"break…"

Sphia's clone abruptly stopped its rapid movement and swung its axe, but this time it wasn't aimed at the spatial torrent in front of it, but at all the space around it.

Under the full force of the Chaos Overlord's attack, these separated spaces were equally fragile.

"Hmm, it's no use..."

The Sage of Emptiness controlled the entire Earthly Labyrinth and paid no attention to the attacks from Sphia's clone. The clone only damaged some space and could not harm the entire labyrinth. In fact, it would increase the power of his attacks.

However, under this attack, the Sage of Emptiness suddenly found that the entire maze space was stuck.

Countless overlapping spaces, like intricately crafted gears, constantly twist and collide.

However, at this moment, as the gears are turning, it seems that some small pebbles have appeared.

Click click click...

The gears' operation was disrupted, and instantly two small spaces collided completely and exploded.

Moreover, this explosion was spontaneous and not deliberately controlled, directly disrupting the surrounding space.

If that were all, it wouldn't be a big deal, considering that Sphia's clones can destroy a lot of space with a single casual strike.

However, this chain reaction directly affected all the blocked spaces.

Rumble... Rumble...

Just like firecrackers, a chain reaction of explosions occurred in the space.

Moreover, these spaces perfectly form a ring, directly separating this area from the entire geological labyrinth, essentially creating a sphere within a sphere.

Wow...

The spatial torrent that was originally heading towards Sphia was directly injected into this spatial isolation zone.

"It turns out that through this method, his understanding of the Dao of Void is quite good, and he actually managed to find the flaw in my secret technique."

The icy expression of the Void Saint also revealed a smile. He did not break through with other original paths or strength, but found the flaw by using the same Void Path.

Fighting against this kind of opponent is practically asking yourself to find weaknesses.

"Stop!"

With a thought, the vast torrent of space instantly stopped.

Continuing to attack would only allow the opponent to exploit him. Relying on his understanding of the Void Dao, the opponent forcibly created another small void within his secret labyrinth.

This void not only isolates him from attacks created through the dimensional labyrinth.

Moreover, once a critical point is exceeded, it will explode like a balloon, causing the entire arcane labyrinth to be destroyed.

"Stop it!"

Sphia's clone looked at the isolation zone ahead, its gaze piercing through layers of space, and it vaguely sensed a special space.

"I found you!"

call out!

Gradually seeing through the flaws in the opponent's secret technique, Sphia's clone located the opponent's position in the process.

Without hesitation, instead of retreating, they advanced and chose to charge straight in.
