Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 239

Natural wormhole!

Teleport! Teleport! Teleport!

Each teleportation has a limit of 1 light-years, and the will and consciousness of the Lord of the Universe can maintain an extremely high frequency of teleportation.

After some time, through another teleportation, Zetton's clone finally saw a broken miniature universe as a frame of reference.

Not far ahead, a colossal celestial body stretched out in the void, its massive cosmic membrane extending as far as the eye could see.

However, the cosmic membrane was too damaged. At a glance, Zetton's clone saw hundreds of broken and irregular holes and cracks, allowing the chaotic airflow to completely pass through the cosmic sea and the cosmic membrane.

"This is the microcosm that serves as the reference frame for the cosmic sea." The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds looked at the broken microcosm with a complex expression on his face.

“Jetton, you should understand that after a cultivator breaks through to immortality, their inner world will transform into a divine kingdom, and then after reaching the realm of the strongest in the universe, the divine kingdom will become a miniature universe.”

As the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds spoke, he glanced into the depths of the entire Cosmic Sea: "But there are no microcosms belonging to the three Ancestral Gods in the Cosmic Sea."

"Doesn't that mean...?" Jetton's clone looked surprised.

"That's right. The three ancestral gods are still at the level of universe masters. They just received the blessing of the origin of the universe and obtained the sixth-order secret technique of the universe master. At the same time, they can use the same words as the strongest in the universe to make their words come true."

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds said helplessly, "For all the Lords of the Universes, this is no longer a secret. After all, whether or not someone has a small universe is impossible to hide."

“I see!” Zetton’s clone nodded slowly, cooperating.

"So, Zetton, I hope that one day you can raise a small universe of your own in the cosmic sea," the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds said expectantly.

At that time, Zetton's clone settled in the Nine Netherworld, and the Nine Netherworld Path was the one who most directly felt the former's terrifying talent, which is why it spared no effort to spread it within the sect.

"I will!"

Zetton's clone nodded solemnly. He not only wanted to create a small universe in the cosmic sea, but also an existence comparable to the primordial universe.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself!"

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds revealed a pale smile, then handed a token that shimmered with faint light to Zetton's clone.

"This contains information about the primordial universe, before the Great Cataclysm, the Second Universe Era, the First Universe Era, and the powerful figures from the two holy lands. This information has been collected by the Ancestral God Sect over billions of years, and it even includes information related to the origin of the universe. Destroy it immediately after you have finished reading it."

The Jaden clone took the token and used a wisp of divine power to absorb the information inside.

Having the memories of the original work, Lu Yunhe remembered the truly hidden information of the entire universe sea perfectly, such as the realm beasts, the god king, the supreme rules, and so on...

However, he was unclear about the specific details of any particular object or being, but the information provided by the Ancestral God Cult was just right: the strongest beings in many universes, countless universe lords...

Purple Moon Holy Land, Eastern Emperor Holy Land, Divine Eye Clan, Skeleton Clan, Ancestral God Cult of the First and Second Universe Eras...

The vast amount of information about powerful beings in the Cosmic Sea collected by the Ancestral God Sect flooded into Lu Yunhe's mind, giving him a more intuitive understanding.

The primordial universe gave birth to billions of races and countless powerful beings. As time passed, after reaching its most prosperous peak, the primordial universe would rapidly decline and even be destroyed, and then a new cycle of birth and creation would begin...

Each cycle gives birth to countless geniuses from billions of races, some of the strongest beings in the universe, and a large number of universe lords.

After the destruction of the primordial universe, unless one relies on the microcosm of the strongest being, they will all reincarnate along with the primordial universe.

However, even these strongest beings in the universe can only live for three lifetimes. Once they exceed that, they will all be annihilated.

Only by surviving the cycle of reincarnation can the microcosm transform again and persist for a longer period of time, thus becoming the Holy Universe.

However, there is no eternal existence under the supreme rules. When a certain cycle of reincarnation is reached, the supreme rules will bring down calamity, sweeping away a vast ocean of the universe, including these sacred universes, and even the primordial universe will be severely damaged.

However, Lu Yunhe speculated that if one could cultivate to the level of Chaos Ruler or God King and truly open up one's own inner universe, there would be no need to worry about the safety of one's inner universe.

Above the cycle of the universe, there is a cycle of supreme rules. The entire original world will also be destroyed and then reassembled. The God-King realm is still not enough.

"Above the supreme rules, will the entire endless primordial world undergo reincarnation?"

Lu Yunhe pondered, and at the same time, he seemed to have a feeling and thought of something.

"Feeling the pressure?" The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds looked at the deep-thinking Jaden clone, thinking he was frightened by the information, and chuckled, "Don't be fooled by the strength of those strongest beings in the Cosmic Sea and the Lords of the Universe. They have all cultivated for countless hours. Compared to you, they are nothing."

While a shorter cultivation time does not necessarily indicate the final achievement, a shorter cultivation time at the same level naturally suggests stronger aptitude.

"Moreover, with your strength and the treasures you possess, you are no less capable than them, and you can even survive if you encounter the strongest being in the universe."

"I am still very confident in my cultivation." Zetton's clone nodded. Even though it was due to cheating, the fact that he could achieve in just a million years what others could only achieve in billions of epochs was enough to demonstrate his talent, so he naturally wouldn't underestimate himself.

"it is good!"

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds laughed, "As expected of a genius, the greater the pressure, the greater his desire to improve."

Then, the Lord of Nine Journeys once again teleported away with his Zetton clone, leaving this dilapidated miniature universe.

With the high-frequency teleportation combined with the natural wormhole, the two quickly arrived at their destination.

"Dangerous Area: Vortex Region!"

Within the endless chaotic currents, a vortex-like entity, approximately eight million light-years in diameter, quietly rotated within the chaotic currents, much like a small whirlpool in the cosmic ocean, containing countless tiny grains of sand.

The entire cosmic ocean is divided into three forbidden zones and many other dangerous places.

The three forbidden zones are the Peak Realm, the Cosmic Boat, and the Flowing Mountain. Even the strongest beings in the universe who possess the most precious treasures for palaces will perish there, but they are also the places that produce the most treasures.

Besides the three forbidden zones, there are thousands of other dangerous places where even top-tier universe masters risk perishing, but they also contain many treasures.

Although it appears to be sand and gravel, when Zetton's clones approached, they revealed themselves to be individual rocks billions of kilometers in size, each moving at a speed exceeding the speed of light. (The upper limit of speed in the cosmic sea is not the speed of light.)

call out!

Just as Zetton's clone and the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds approached, a two-legged frog-headed being in the distance glanced in their direction. A hint of apprehension flashed in its eyes, and it quickly teleported away from sight.

"The Lord of the Tremor Frog comes from a powerful race in the primordial universe, but his strength is average."

Zetton's clone naturally saw the figure from earlier, a small race in a remote part of the universe, far from the core of the universe, and not affiliated with any top power.

"Let's go!"

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds paid even less attention to such minor characters, and flew deeper into the Flowing Sand River with his Jaden clone.

After teleporting repeatedly, the two arrived at a rock with a diameter of approximately ten million kilometers.

"Feng Tian and I have been wandering around the Liusha River recently, so the universe lords of the Jiuyou lineage and the Feng Tian lineage are also in this area," the Lord of Jiuyou said with a smile.

Because there is no strongest being in the universe, the activities of the Ancestral God Cult in the Cosmic Sea are basically centered around the Protector God.

Moreover, because the three forbidden zones are too dangerous and lack a strong enough backer, most of the universe lords of the Ancestral God Cult are active in various dangerous places, except for some powerful universe lords with clones.

Anyway, if you don't crave the most powerful treasures, the various dangerous places are risky enough for a cosmic ruler.

call out!

After flying for a short while, Zetton's clone spotted a temple in a groove on the surface of the rock, and two figures were talking outside the temple.

"Jiuyou!"

"Nine Netherworlds, you've brought the Lord of Zetton!"

After Zetton's clone entered, two figures appeared: one was a bald man with an ancient air, and the other was a giant python emitting phantom-like shadows.

Both were rulers of the universe, and their expressions were benevolent as they looked at the arriving Lord of Zetton.

"The Lord of the Most Difficult, the Lord of the Dark Serpent."

The Jaden clone looked at the two and also searched its memory for information about them.

One is the Thorn Ring Alliance, and the other belongs to the Ancestral God Sect. However, both are peripheral members of the Main God Sect and both come from the Nine Netherworld lineage.

"Lord of Zetton, welcome to the Cosmic Sea," said Lord of Yu Nan and Lord of Dark Serpent simultaneously.

Chapter 293 Vortex Domain

"Haha, now our Nine Netherworld lineage has four Universe Lords, which makes us rank first among the members of the Ancestral God Sect's peripheral organizations."

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds looked at the three with immense pleasure. There were four Universe Lords in total, a number that was more than many powerful races in the primordial universe.

"Congratulations, Jiuyou."

Then two more cosmic lords emerged from the temple, congratulating the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds and greeting the Jadeton clone.

The two cosmic lords behind are from the lineage of the "Lord of the Beacon Sky," but the Lord of the Beacon Sky is currently adventuring in the deepest part of the Flowing Sand River and cannot arrive in time, so he is not in the temple.

After all, the Flowing Sand River is a dangerous place, and in some dangerous areas, one dares not teleport recklessly, for fear of accidentally falling.

"The Lord of Zetton has just entered the universe, so let's follow the old rules." The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds and the others returned to the temple, where wine cups had already been set on the table.

"Lord of Zetton, may your treasures be endless and your life eternal," said the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds and the other four Lords of the Universe, raising their glasses in unison.

"It seems this is the common wish of all forces in the Cosmic Sea." Zetton's clone smiled slightly and also raised his wine glass: "Endless treasures, eternal life."

Having ventured into such a dangerous place as the Cosmic Sea, the Lord of the Universe had only two objectives left.

One is a powerful treasure, and the other is to hone oneself in adventures, break through realms, and eventually reach the highest pursuit of cultivators—eternity.

The Lord of the Universe cannot live beyond one cycle of reincarnation without relying on a microcosm. Even with a microcosm, the lifespan of an era is limited to three cycles.

Even if one breaks through the cycle of small universes and becomes a holy land, one still cannot escape the great cycle of the source world of the supreme rules.

For cultivators in this world, the purpose of cultivation is to transcend each cycle of reincarnation until they reach ultimate eternity.

"Lord Zetton, although the danger here is not as great as the Three Great Abysses, there is still a risk of death for a Lord of the Universe. Please be careful," Lord Younan said solemnly.

“Thank you, I will be careful,” Jaden’s clone replied.

After meeting and getting acquainted, the four cosmic lords, including the Lord of Difficulty and the Lord of Dark Serpent, left one after another.

Those who come to the Cosmic Sea are here for adventure and exploration, not for enjoyment.

“Zetton, I’m going to explore too.” The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds said, “With your strength comparable to the Beast God, plus the protection of the top palace treasures, you are capable of exploring the cosmic sea. Just be careful of those madmen from the First Universe Era.”

Because a microcosm can only last for three cosmic cycles, this is the last cosmic cycle for the beings of the first cosmic era.

If a microcosm cannot be upgraded to a sacred ground, the strongest microcosm, including the beings living within it, will perish. Therefore, cultivators in the first universe era were extremely fanatical.

After all, watching one's life come to an end is an incredibly agonizing experience.

"Whenever something happens, you can contact them at any time through the divine incarnation in the primordial universe."

After the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds finished speaking, he instantly disappeared.

The strong are forged through trials and tribulations; the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds is not so desperate as to be a personal nanny.

Not to mention that the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds is only an avatar wandering outside. If a real battle breaks out and a protracted war ensues, he might not necessarily be a match for the Lord of Zetton.

"The map of the Cosmic Sea still needs to be organized properly."
