Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

"The Wrath of the Sovereign!"

Ultraman's clone clenched his right fist instantly, detonating countless spatial and temporal forces. In an instant, a sun appeared at the location of the Celestial Bear.

This power of spacetime is drawn from the primordial energy of the universe by the Wings of Spacetime and manifested in the form of a domain. It is roughly equivalent to the divine power of a spacetime treasure and can naturally be detonated.

The energy detonated by this spacetime power was basically equivalent to the self-destruction of a cosmic venerable. The terrifying explosion even affected the originally stable spacetime domain, revealing a huge void.

Moreover, for a cosmic overlord, there is no fear of self-destruction by an opponent of the same level.

Because self-destruction is an uncontrollable attack, its energy disperses over a large area, and it is also difficult to hit a person.

However, Ultraman's clone had already suppressed the spacetime around the Celestial Bear, forcing him to take the full force of this spacetime explosion.

"Cough cough, damn it, what a terrifying attack."

The Celestial Bear Venerable, located at the epicenter of the explosion, was filled with terror. In the explosion just now, his divine body had suffered a direct loss of more than 5%, and this was even after being weakened by the defensive treasure.

If he only possessed a powerful treasure, he would probably have perished just now.

The attack just now had reached the level of a universe master, which naturally exceeded the limit that ordinary treasures could withstand, so it could not be weakened to one ten-thousandth.

"I...I...I..."

His own condition left Venerable Tianxiong speechless for a moment. He had originally thought that even if he couldn't win, he could hold on for a while longer.

But now Venerable Tianxiong realizes that he is not sure if he can hold out until the arrival of the Lord of the Universe.

With a single strike, his divine body was weakened by five percent. It would probably only take a dozen or so moves to kill him right here.

After all, with the weakening of divine power, his own attributes would also decrease, making it even more difficult to withstand the enemy's attacks.

"Hmm, it seems that simply activating the Wings of Time and Space is enough to easily kill an ordinary cosmic overlord."

Ultraman's clone nodded. By simply activating the Wings of Time and Space, and relying on the power of the treasure itself, he could rival even the weakest ruler of the universe.

Moreover, this is not the limit of the Wings of Time and Space, nor is it its true function. A treasure will only become stronger if someone uses it.

As Ultraman's clone looked at the ever-flowing Primal Divine Pool inside the Wings of Time and Space, he felt even more reassured.

"Heavenly Bear Venerable, prepare to die!"

After completing the experiment, Ultraman's clone no longer held back, and the supreme treasure, the King's Sword, appeared in his hand, with the power of the space-time domain enhancing his attack.

Then, an attack powerful enough to cleave through space and time was launched directly at Venerable Tianxiong.

"No!"

The Heavenly Bear Venerable's bear paw trembled slightly as he gripped the treasure. He was clearly on the verge of reaching the pinnacle of bear life, so how could he suddenly be on the verge of death?

"I can not be reconciled!"

Venerable Tianxiong did not use the title of Lord of the Universe to threaten his enemy, because the opponent's strength was already sufficient to save his life in front of the Lord of the Universe in the primordial universe.

Since that's the case, then he has no choice but to fight to the death. Venerable Tianxiong spared no effort in burning his divine power, pushing the treasured spear in his hand to its limit, and directly met the opponent's attack.

The next moment, the golden spear and the King's Sword clashed. The divine power of time and space swept away the power of the Heavenly Bear Venerable like a devastating force, and then crashed into the defensive treasure on his body.

With a single blow, his divine body suffered a loss of more than 50%, and the Celestial Bear Venerable could no longer maintain the strength of a cosmic overlord.

"I'll be back!"

With his divine body damaged by more than 50 percent and having not witnessed the arrival of the Lord of the Universe, Venerable Tianxiong did not hesitate to choose self-destruction.

Upon seeing this, Ultraman's clone quickly retracted his spacetime domain and then rapidly increased the distance between them.

The self-destruction of a cosmic overlord is undoubtedly terrifying; even Ultraman's clone, clad in high-level treasures, dared not withstand it head-on.

Rumble…

The cataclysmic explosion shattered the small world of Time and Space Ruins, and the Primordial Divine Pool on the other side was also affected, with the passage connecting to the origin of the universe being blown open.

At the same time, the spatial turbulence caused by the explosion directly splashed across the entire Space-Time Ruins. One after another, the fragmented worlds were destroyed by the spatial turbulence. Some nearby, unlucky kings were also swept up in the spatial turbulence and their bodies were completely annihilated.

"It exploded!"

Seeing this, Ultraman's clone felt a little sorry; a cosmic overlord had just self-destructed.

He might still have some hesitation about becoming an immortal king, after all, he doesn't know if he can be resurrected.

However, for the cosmic overlords of the pinnacle races, they will definitely be resurrected by their race after death, but all the treasures they have accumulated will completely dissipate.

"Two priceless treasures!"

After the first wave of the explosion dissipated, Ultraman's clone did not hesitate. He activated the Space-Time Wings on his back, transformed into a silver streak of light, and rushed directly into the explosion, picking up a suit of armor and a golden spear.

While the self-destruction of a cosmic overlord is powerful, it wouldn't be enough to directly destroy a supreme treasure.

After all, the defensive limit of a defensive treasure and the maximum tolerance of its own material are two different concepts.

Some powerful attacks exceeded the defensive limit of the artifact, but they could not maintain the original one ten-thousandth reduction. They would still be reduced by one-tenth or even half until the artifact was completely destroyed.

This is the difference between armor-type and palace-type treasures. The latter only has two options: complete defense or destruction. There is no option to withstand only half the damage because the opponent is too strong.

Chapter 264 The Arrival of the Lord of the Universe

"They're all ordinary treasures!"

Ultraman's clone glanced at the armor and spear in his hand; they were standard equipment for an ordinary cosmic overlord.

Only top-tier cosmic overlords are equipped with high-level treasures; otherwise, even if they have them, they cannot protect them.

Even ordinary universe lords would covet such high-level treasures.

"coming!"

Just after Ultraman's clone collected the two treasures, an enormous dark cloud suddenly appeared in the Void of Time and Space.

The moment this dark cloud appeared, it seemed to become the core of the entire Time-Space Ruins. Its incomparably powerful and tyrannical pressure swept across the entire Ruins, causing the immortal gods who lingered within to tremble in fear.

"What exactly happened? A massive explosion occurred deep within the Void of Time and Space, and now even the Lord of the Universe has descended?"

The terrified kings fled frantically outwards; with their meager strength, they couldn't even withstand a single thought from the Lord of the Universe.

Even the Skyfeather Clan, who hated foreign races the most, became wary and dared not stay any longer after sensing the arrival of the Lord of the Universe.

Where is Tianxiong?

A rumbling sound rang out, and then a tall figure, resembling both clouds and mist, emerged from the dark clouds.

The towering figure was surrounded by wisps of air, as if it were the embodiment of the laws of the universe, pressing down on the surrounding space and time.

"Lord of Chaotic Clouds!"

Upon seeing the descending Lord of the Universe, Ultraman's clone felt a sudden urge and instantly understood who it was.

There are thousands of Universe Lords in the entire primordial universe. With Ultraman's avatar's authority, he naturally reviewed the information of all these Universe Lords, since he might encounter them at any time.

Lord of Chaotic Clouds is a Universe Lord belonging to the Demon Clan. His strength is comparable to that of an ordinary Universe Lord. He is most famous for possessing a high-level class treasure that resembles a dark cloud.

Ultraman's clone glanced at the gradually expanding dark clouds that enveloped the surroundings; this must be the treasure.

"You're too late. I've already stewed that black bear into bear paws!"

Ultraman's clone took out the two treasures from the World Ring, waved them around, and then put them back, his gesture full of provocation.

"You cosmic overlord who appeared out of nowhere, do you think you can challenge the cosmic lord just because you obtained a special treasure?"

Upon seeing the two supreme treasures belonging to Venerable Tianxiong, Lord of Chaotic Clouds instantly flew into a rage, and the surrounding space-time began to tremble and shake.

Despite his hurried arrival, he was still a step too late.

"Fortunately, it was just a death, not enslavement!" Lord of Chaos thought to himself.

Although enslaving a cosmic being is extremely difficult, it is not impossible, and there are even some special methods that can improve the efficiency of enslavement.

Unlike immortal gods, due to their powerful will, cosmic beings can only fall into slumber when their divine power drops below 1%, and the proportion of cosmic lords entering slumber is even lower.

"That's right, it's not difficult to challenge an ordinary universe lord with a powerful treasure."

Ultraman's clone nodded. The standard equipment for a top-tier cosmic overlord is a high-grade treasure, and its overall attributes are basically close to those of a first-order cosmic lord.

Ordinary universe masters are only at the second tier. Apart from divine power, their treasures and secret techniques are not significantly different from those of top universe overlords, so they cannot kill them with a single blow.

If a top-tier cosmic overlord is also equipped with a powerful artifact, then it's certainly worth provoking them.

Based on information about the Lord of the Universe in the virtual universe, Ultraman's clone divided the entire Lord of the Universe into six orders.

A first-order universe master, advancing a hundredfold in genetic level, his treasures and secret techniques are all at the level of ordinary universe overlords.

At the second level, the genetic level is more than a thousand times higher, and the ultimate secret technique of the Lord of the Universe has been created, and corresponding high-level, even top-level treasures have been acquired.

Most of the universe rulers in the primordial universe were at this level, which is the level at which even the top universe overlords could survive.

Tier 3: High-level Universe Lord, ten times stronger. This can be achieved through one of the following: a gene power ten thousand times greater, a supreme treasure, or the strongest secret technique.

Fourth Tier: Peak of the Universe Lord, possessing all three: a powerful treasure, ten thousand times the genetic bonus, and the strongest secret technique, his strength has basically reached the peak of the Universe Lord.

Fifth Tier: The limit of the Lord of the Universe. The supreme treasures are fully equipped, and one's own cultivation can no longer advance. One can only use secret methods to create the strongest secret method of the Lord of the Universe, or possess special rare items.

Sixth Rank: The invincible Lord of the Universe, who creates sixth-rank secret techniques at the fifth rank level, or possesses supreme treasures, and can even contend with the strongest beings in the universe, even in the cosmic sea.

The Lord of Chaotic Clouds before Ultraman's clone is a second-tier universe lord. With the help of a domain treasure and the genetic level of a special life form, he is not weak among second-tier beings.

"Hahaha... This guy who came out of nowhere doesn't even put the Lord of the Universe in his eyes."

Upon hearing Ultraman's words, the Lord of Chaotic Clouds burst into laughter, the sound of which shook space and time itself.

"Another one blinded by treasures. Let me, the Lord of Chaotic Clouds, show you the difference between a cosmic overlord and a true cosmic master!"

Lord of Chaotic Clouds laughed loudly. If he had encountered other second-tier universe lords, top universe overlords might have been able to escape even if they couldn't defeat them. However, it was a pity that he had encountered him.

"Cloud and Mist Cloak!"

The divine power within the body of the Chaotic Clouds Master was directly injected into the dark clouds above. In an instant, the entire dark cloud dispersed, completely enveloping this area of ​​space and time, transforming it into the domain of the Lord of the Universe.

With the supreme treasures of advanced fields combined with the spacetime control of the universe master, even the top universe overlords cannot escape.

Although the attributes of a top-tier universe overlord are close to those of a first-tier universe lord, they are still far from being a match for a second-tier universe lord.

They could put up a fight, but if it came to a real battle, with a tenfold or even dozens of times greater strength, they would have no chance of winning and would only face certain death.

Therefore, even if a top-tier cosmic overlord encounters a cosmic master, towards the end of the fight, they either have to run away or call for reinforcements. Although they can't win, running away is still an option.

Therefore, when Lord of Chaos Clouds advanced to the level of Universe Lord and received the reward from the demon race, he did not choose a top-tier offensive treasure. Instead, he used his accumulated resources to exchange for a high-level treasure, just so that he could better dominate weaker opponents.
