Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 276

In this cosmic sea, countless cosmic lords and the strongest beings in the universe have risen and fallen. Yet, given the immense danger, why do they still choose to take the risk?

Just like the Lord of Nebula, he wanted to find a glimmer of hope amidst the danger.

The pursuit of higher realms and eternal life has become an instinct for almost all cultivators.

If you hear the truth in the morning, you will die in the evening!

"Latercomers, when you see this crystal palace, you will probably be somewhat disappointed, as there are not many treasures inside." The projection of the Nebula Lord suddenly smiled.

"Haha, but you must be very curious, why would a cosmic ruler suddenly leave behind a death message ahead of time?"

"really!"

Zetton's clone was somewhat puzzled from the beginning. In the cosmic sea, every adventure carries a certain risk of death. If one has to leave behind such death information every time one goes on an adventure, wouldn't that be extremely troublesome?

Therefore, the Lord of Nebula deliberately left a death notice in advance for this final adventure, probably because this target presented him with both immense opportunities and extremely high risks.

"I once obtained a top-tier offensive treasure during an adventure in the cosmic sea: a pair of hand armors. They are incredibly powerful and extremely precious to me."

"However, when I was adventuring in Liuzhong Mountain, one of the three forbidden lands of the universe, my supreme treasure gauntlet suddenly started to vibrate violently as I approached a certain area. It almost flew out of my control."

"At that time, I realized that my gauntlets might just be a part of another supreme treasure. However, if a single part has the power of a peak supreme treasure, then the complete treasure must be at least a supreme treasure."

"That is an extremely powerful treasure, a treasure that even some of the strongest beings in the universe do not possess. For me, the Lord of the Nebula, to actually have the opportunity to obtain such a powerful treasure is an incredible stroke of luck."

"However, I was not blinded by the treasure at the time. Since ancient times, powerful treasures have always been accompanied by danger, which is why I left this message."

"If I fail to gather all the treasures, I don't want this powerful treasure to remain hidden. I hope that future generations will also have the opportunity to obtain this incomparably powerful treasure, which would fulfill my wish."

After the information in the photo stone ended, a map of Liuzhong Mountain also appeared.

"It's actually a combined treasure! Could it be another treasure similar to the Wings of the Slayer of Wu, or just a single, supreme treasure?!"

Jetton's clone was extremely surprised, never expecting that the Lord of Nebula would leave behind such important information.

Although the supreme treasure is indestructible, the environment of the three forbidden lands in the universe sea was deliberately dismantled by its original owner, yet it still managed to achieve this level of strength.

"If it's a component of a powerful mechanical artifact, could it be a component of my Dark God Armor?"

The Jadeite clone thought of the armor it was wearing, which also seemed to have a sense of incompleteness.

If it's just a single, supreme treasure that gets split up, it might mainly depend on luck.

However, if it is a powerful mechanical artifact component, it would likely be guided by the fundamental will of the universe.

Although the primordial will was unaware of the World Beast's predicament, it was certainly able to sense some danger and thus make some preparations in advance.

A powerful mechanical artifact is undoubtedly the best choice to deal with the crisis in the primordial universe.

The Jadeton clone looked at the map left behind by the Nebula Lord, but remained incredibly calm.

Although he was stronger than the Nebula Lord at this time, he was still within the realm of the Universe Lord. If he went there rashly, the risk of his demise would be equally high.

"My main body is currently cultivating on the black-patterned stone pillar, so I'll take this opportunity to cultivate as well and create a secret technique suitable for the body of Zetton."

In addition, the clone of Zetton also needs to arm itself with the treasures of that Jie Fanzi and exchange the various treasures again, so it plans to reunite with the main body after it has finished searching for the treasures.

However, what happened next was somewhat unexpected for Lu Yunhe. In the battle against the Divine Eye Clan, he directly comprehended a sixth-order secret technique.

This forced Zetton's clone to retreat into seclusion again, modifying the secret techniques of his main body to create a sixth-order secret technique suitable for himself.

Fortunately, when it comes to secret techniques, if one's level is not high enough, even billions of epochs of time cannot be used to advance further. Once one's level is high enough, modifying and creating them becomes incredibly easy.

After completing this, Zetton's clone secretly headed back to his main body and equipped himself with a complete set of supreme treasures. Except for the Dark Demon God Armor he was wearing, everything else was upgraded.

The ultimate palace treasure, the ultimate domain treasure, the ultimate soul treasure, the ultimate attack treasure—a complete set of ultimate treasures.

Besides the supreme treasure, there was also the blood of the seven true masters of the Divine Eye Clan, as well as the remnants of the divine power of Yin Tuo from the first reincarnation era, which Zetton's clone also directly devoured.

Unfortunately, unlike the self-created secret techniques that rely on conscious perception, the genetic breakthrough of the divine power stream involves changes in both divine power and the genetic level, making it incredibly difficult.

In the original work, Luo Feng was able to create a seventh-order secret technique and cultivated for millions of epochs before he could even begin to understand the Divine Power Flow.

He even managed to create his own eighth-tier secret technique, and his cultivation time reached the end of the cycle of reincarnation, but he was still stuck at the limit of the second level of the Divine Power Flow, unable to even break through to the third level.

In the end, it was only by using the blood of the World Beast that he was able to directly jump to a level of 100,000 times.

"Since it's so dangerous, I'd better go myself. With the Eternal Sky Ship here, we have the ability to deal with any danger."

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yunhe decided to take matters into his own hands. He then placed the Jeton clone into the Sky Ship and flew towards Liuchong Mountain on the Sky Ship.

……

The vast cosmic ocean is filled with endless cosmic currents.

Whoosh!

A golden-red celestial vessel soared freely through the chaotic air currents, soon entering a region where the air currents were thin.

"Liu Chongshan!"

After flying through the cosmic sea for some time, Lu Yunhe finally arrived at the range of Liuchong Mountain.

Having experienced the trials of the Peak Realm and the Cosmic Ship, Lu Yunhe's mood had calmed down considerably upon arriving at this third most perilous place.

Across hundreds of millions of light-years, Lu Yunhe could see the undulating mountain range in the distance, rippling in the endless river. Countless peaks floated on the void water, which was Liuzhong Mountain, one of the three forbidden lands of the cosmic sea.

The river, rippling with ten colors including red, yellow, blue, green, cyan, and purple, paints the entire area with a dreamlike hue. The rising clouds and mist add a hazy feel to the floating mountains, making it seem like a fairyland on earth.

The Peak Realm, one of the three forbidden lands, is ever-changing and extremely strange, seemingly a creation of the natural universe.

The Spaceship, a super treasure of mechanical engineering, is divided into billions of zones and is a purely man-made object.

Liuchong Mountain is strange and beautiful, just between the two. While its foundation was nurtured by the cosmic environment, it also seems to have been transformed by later forces.

"As expected of the most beautiful of the three forbidden zones in terms of appearance," Lu Yunhe exclaimed. Unfortunately, the natural environment also follows the rule that the more beautiful it is, the more dangerous it is.

The entire Liuzhong Mountain covers an area of ​​over 400 million light-years, making it the largest of the three forbidden lands.

Because of the endless clouds and mist, no one has yet been able to determine exactly how many peaks are hidden in the Liuchong Mountains.

Even the records of the two holy sites only reveal that they have records of more than ten million mountain peaks.

These mountains, surrounded by clouds and floating above the energy water, greatly blocked various detection methods, making all intruders feel as if they were in a maze.

Without an accurate map as a reference, it is easy to get lost.

The exploration of Liu Chongshan by the entire universe has always been limited to the outer and inner domains. Many of the strongest beings in the universe who ventured into the inner domain have disappeared without a trace, leaving no information behind.

Even so, it did not diminish the enthusiasm of many powerful individuals to explore it, because Liuzhong Mountain is a rare place where even in the outer realms, supreme treasures are born.

Lu Yunhe didn't know much about Liuzhong Mountain either, because the human race mainly operated in the Qingfeng Realm, and the Ancestral God Sect didn't like to operate in the three forbidden zones, so there wasn't much information about them.

"The original cosmic will left behind these three forbidden zones. The Peak Realm hides the reincarnation passage and is the most important place in the entire cosmic sea; the environment of the Cosmic Boat is very suitable for cultivators to train. In addition to various dangerous environments, there are also many places like the Black Pattern Stone Pillar Space that are suitable for tempering."

"Only Liuchong Mountain has an unclear purpose; it seems to be simply a place for training."

Lu Yunhe pondered in his mind, secretly speculating on the thoughts of the primordial universe's will.

The fact that the original cosmic will later pulled the body of the God-King of Jin over and made it the fourth great forbidden zone shows that the formation and emergence of the three great forbidden zones are definitely related to the original will.

Unfortunately, there wasn't much useful information, and Lu Yunhe also found it difficult to fathom the thoughts of the original universe's will.

As Lu Yunhe pondered, he moved closer to Liuzhong Mountain.

"The Ten Thousand Mountains!"

Lu Yunhe ventured into the overflowing clouds and mist at the edge of Liuchong Mountain, where towering peaks loomed in and out of sight.

Looking down, the ground beneath my feet was completely obscured by clouds and mist, making it seem as if I were standing on a cloud.

Rumble…

Just then, a raging torrent of water swept through space and time, falling from a mountain a million light-years high, carrying unparalleled power as it crashed down below.

The high waterfall collided with the water below, instantly thickening the surrounding mist.

"Let me see the action plan left by the Lord of Nebula."

Looking at the magnificent mountains around him, Lu Yunhe compared them with the map left by the Lord of Nebula, and then piloted the Sky Boat through the ethereal clouds and mist, flying deeper into the distance.

Chapter 323 The Giant of the Peak

Amidst the swirling clouds and mist of Liuchong Mountain, a celestial vessel continuously roams through the clouds and mist.

"Although Liuchong Mountain is one of the three most dangerous places, its scenery is indeed very suitable as a base for a sect."

Lu Yunhe sat in the sky boat, following the predetermined route while looking at the surrounding scenery.

Every now and then, a powerful waterspout would rise from the water below, throwing out one or two treasures.

After traveling for a while, although Lu Yunhe did not reach his destination, he did obtain two top-tier treasures.

The treasure-hunting efficiency of the strongest being in the universe is not even in the same league as that of the Lord of the Universe. Especially the former, who also possesses a supreme treasure of the palace type. He doesn't need to avoid danger at all and can even directly break into it.

Unbeknownst to him, over a thousand years had passed. With the help of some spatial passages within Liuzhong Mountain, Lu Yunhe had arrived at the place between the inner and outer domains.

The reason why it is said that Liuchong Mountain has traces of human intervention is because some special peaks have fixed spatial passages that can directly traverse long distances, and some people have even been directly teleported into the interior of Liuchong Mountain.

Without the help of the spatial passage, given the size and danger of Liuchong Mountain, it would probably have taken several times longer to reach our current location.

"arrive!"

Lu Yunhe sat in the celestial boat, looking at the mountain peak in front of him that was a full light-year high.

According to the Nebula Lord's map, this should be the massive mountain.

However, the Lord of Nebula did not specify the exact location of the treasure, so he would have to search for it himself.

Lu Yunhe stepped out of the Sky Ship, grabbed it with one hand, and activated "Eternal Kingdom" to maintain its coverage area within a radius of 100 million kilometers, then quickly began searching.

Before long, Lu Yunhe found a tall Flame Tree near the foot of the mountain, which already bore tens of thousands of Flame Fruits.

This miraculous Flame Fruit, when consumed by a World Lord-level being, has a 50% chance of enabling them to break through to the Immortal God realm.

If wine is brewed using special methods, even someone at the level of a universe master would feel a numbing sensation.

However, given its function and rarity, it can only be described as a high-end luxury item.

Each Flame Fruit is worth as much as a priceless treasure. To brew a fruit wine that would impress even the Lord of the Universe, it would be necessary to use all of these tens of thousands of Flame Fruits, each worth as much as a high-grade treasure.

It must be said that for powerful beings, indulging in material and spiritual enjoyment is an extremely luxurious and difficult thing.

It only takes about ten Earth Coins to get an ordinary person drunk, but even ten Treasure Points wouldn't be enough to get a cosmic ruler drunk.
