Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

“Teacher!” Lu Yunhe opened the email, and instantly a virtual projection of the King of Xiyue appeared in front of him.

"Yunhe, it's a pity that we haven't met in the real universe yet. I originally planned to meet you when you broke through to the Domain Lord level, but now it's probably not necessary."

"I regretfully said this," Xi Yue Wang said, and then apologized to Lu Yunhe.

"Yunhe, your previous perilous mission was something the city lord specifically asked me to interfere with. I apologize to you for that."

King Xiyue told Lu Yunhe all of the Chaos City Lord's arrangements, clearly showing that he truly regarded him as his disciple.

Lu Yunhe already knew this; after becoming Yuanzu's disciple, the Lord of Chaos City told him all of this.

Lu Yunhe had long since stopped caring about this, since the outcome was good, and it was just a matter of changing his mission to a more challenging one; there was no real behind-the-scenes manipulation.

He could still distinguish the difference, after all, even without the Lord of Chaos City, Lu Yunhe would still undertake cosmic-level cultivation missions.

"...I have captured a glimmer of inspiration for a breakthrough and am currently in seclusion in my divine kingdom. I don't know how long I will be in seclusion."

Breaking through to the level of a Cosmic Venerable can be accomplished in a few years if things go smoothly, but it could take thousands or tens of thousands of years if things go slowly, and there's no guarantee of success in the end.

"Given your cultivation speed, Yunhe, you'll probably be venturing into the secret realms of the universe soon. You can also go to the Realm of Time Ruins then. I've also collected quite a bit of information about these secret realms!"

At the end of the email, King Xiyue included detailed information about the "Realm of Time Ruins".

"The Realm of Time Ruins!"

Lu Yunhe glanced at the last piece of information and temporarily stored it in Delacion's system.

After all, he was only a minor domain lord and hadn't yet considered matters related to the cosmic secret realm.

"I wonder when Master will break through, and what realm I will reach then!"

Lu Yunhe said expectantly.

In the primordial universe—Chaos City, on the rooftop of a residence, Lu Yunhe sat cross-legged.

"Finally, I've made it through the Primordial Heavenly Mountain, a Domain Lord level!" Lu Yunhe slowly opened his eyes, a smile appearing on his face.

After dealing with matters in the virtual universe, Lu Yunhe was finally able to calm down and consider his own affairs.

"It's time to break through to the World Lord level!"

He could have broken through to the realm master level decades ago, but he was delayed a bit due to his cultivation.

However, a mere few decades would not have a significant impact on the Swallowed Star world, and the benefits gained during that time were also considerable.

"Then, let's break through to the World Lord level now!" Lu Yunhe closed his eyes and skillfully connected his life core with the origin of the primordial universe, creating a World Lord world.

With the support of the Origin of the Universe, the diameter of the World Lord's World within Lu Yunhe's body quickly exceeded one million kilometers.

"One million kilometers!"

Lu Yunhe frowned. Although the size far exceeded that of ordinary humans, he was still somewhat dissatisfied.

"open!"

While stabilizing his life core, Lu Yunhe continued to maintain the primordial channel and strengthen the World Lord's World.

Under Lu Yunhe's control, the diameter of the inner world expanded again, quickly exceeding ten million kilometers, and finally stopped at a diameter of twenty million kilometers.

Chapter 204 Gift of Treasures

"A diameter of 20 million kilometers!"

Lu Yunhe looked at the world master of his human body. The foundation was not high. Even with ten or a hundred times the genetic level, it was still very weak.

However, the size of the world of the Realm Lord is not greatly affected, and it can continue to be strengthened in the later stages as the realm increases.

It was already beyond his expectations that it was larger than the world of the Golden Horned Beast Realm Master of the same period.

"Finally, I'm on the same level as my clones!"

Lu Yunhe sighed, "My clones have always been a whole or even two realms ahead of me, but now they're finally on the same level again."

Perhaps, his breakthrough speed will be even faster than his clones'.

Looking at his own World Lord, Lu Yunhe realized there was no need to pursue the ultimate limit. After all, given his growth rate, the boost from the World Lord and the Divine Kingdom was completely unnecessary.

"Junior brother, now that you have broken through to the realm master level, come and visit me."

Just as Lu Yunhe was preparing to reap the benefits of breaking through to the World Lord level, the voice of the Chaos City Lord suddenly rang in his ears.

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this voice, Lu Yunhe composed himself and immediately prepared to go to the Chaos Ruins.

However, after Lu Yunhe agreed, the surrounding space and time became illusory for a moment, and the next moment he was directly moved away.

"Brother!"

Lu Yunhe looked at the scaled man beside him, clearly having saved time on the journey.

"It's not the Chaos Ruins!"

Lu Yunhe looked around at the bright sunshine, a stark contrast to the desolate and blood-soaked Chaos Ruins.

Not far ahead of the two, there was a simple bronze ancient hall, which was somewhat similar to the bronze ancient hall in the Light and Dark Realm mission.

"Junior brother, come with me!"

The Lord of Chaos smiled and then led Lu Yunhe toward the ancient bronze palace.

"The entire primordial universe was actually the primordial master's microcosm. However, because the master was suppressed, the original microcosm degenerated to its initial state, and everything within the universe returned to chaos."

"And this place is one of the few places that has been preserved from back then."

As for Chaos City, it was built later, and the Lord of Chaos City got his name from it.

The Lord of Chaos slowly recounted the story, and the two of them quickly arrived at the ancient bronze palace.

Click!

The Lord of Chaos City personally opened the door, revealing Lu Yunhe a dazzling armory, with some rare ores and parts scattered on the ground.

Upon entering the ancient hall, a hint of nostalgia flashed in the eyes of the Chaos City Lord: "Back then, my teacher was not only the strongest in the universe, but also had considerable skill in refining treasures. He could even refine high-grade treasures!"

"No, research on a certain aspect of the treasure can also reach the top level in the universe."

Suddenly, the Lord of Chaos City thought of something and a confident smile appeared on his face, but he didn't tell Lu Yunhe what it was at all.

"The teacher is definitely very strong!"

Lu Yunhe nodded. The original ancestor in the original work did indeed have very high talent. In the early stage of the evolution of the primordial universe, he reached the limit of a true god and created a tenth-order secret technique.

He created a tenth-order secret technique, and his understanding of this law is sufficient to break through to the Void True God realm.

With the Primordial Ancestor's talent, if he were to arrive on the Origin Continent, he would likely possess the strength of a Chaos Overlord within a few reincarnations.

Such extraordinary talent naturally attracted the machinations of the two holy lands of the Cosmic Sea, and it is likely that even the original will of the universe was involved.

Finally, the Primordial Ancestor was suppressed. The Primal Universe Will did not even spare the Microcosm, degenerating it into its initial state and embedding it with the Primal Universe itself, giving the Primordial Ancestor no chance to resist.

"And this ancient palace is where our teacher researched and refined the most precious treasures. Everything here was made by our teacher," the Chaos City Lord said.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yunhe's eyes lit up. Although he was not lacking in treasures, no one would complain about having too few precious items.

Sensing Lu Yunhe's emotions, the Chaos City Lord smiled slightly: "Now that Junior Brother has broken through to the Realm Lord level, he should go out and gain some experience."

Although it was phrased as an inquiry, it still conveyed a resolute attitude.

Although Lu Yunhe has a high level of authority and status, he absolutely cannot lack the necessary experience.

The Chaos City Lord also liked his junior brother Lu Yunhe very much, but he didn't want to spoil him and ruin him, otherwise he would have failed the original ancestor's expectations.

As is widely known, the Realm Lord level is the most suitable realm for training.

"Yunhe understands!"

The reason Lu Yunhe broke through to the Realm Lord level so quickly was not only because of the allure of the cheat system, but also because he wanted to go out and hone his skills.

Neither cosmic-level cultivation missions nor domain lord-level outreach missions matter to him.

The universe is so vast; he doesn't want to spend his entire life cultivating in the initial universe.

"It's good that you understand, Junior Brother!" the Chaos City Lord praised. Having a sensible junior brother would save him a lot of trouble.

"Since Junior Brother is going out to gain experience, he should not be short of the necessary treasures."

With a flick of his wrist, the Lord of Chaos City produced an oval-shaped mirror with gold trim.

"This treasure is called the 'Kaleidoscope Mirror,' and it's an ordinary soul-type supreme treasure!"

The Lord of Chaos City moved his hand slightly, and the "Mirror of Myriad Flowers" shrank as it descended, eventually hovering slowly in front of Lu Yunhe.

"It's actually a soul-type treasure!"

Lu Yunhe took the mirror, his heart slightly moved. Among all types of treasures, palace-type and soul-type treasures are one or two levels more precious than other types.

There's no way around it; in soul attacks, the soul enslavement skill takes up too much space. The loss of self is something no cultivator can accept, and even resurrection doesn't help.

"The Myriad Mirrors are very suitable for clone-type talents because they can split into nine sub-bodies, each of which is comparable to an ordinary treasure," the Chaos City Lord explained.

"Most importantly, when the sub-body of the Kaleidoscope encounters a soul attack that exceeds its own defensive limits, it can temporarily possess a defensive power comparable to a supreme treasure by burning its own essence."

"Coordinate with the clones."

Lu Yunhe's heart stirred, and he handed the Myriad Mirror to his clone. If it encountered a force that it could not resist, it would have a moment of self-control, and could then directly self-destruct the clone without affecting the main body.

After all, soul-type attacks can directly attack the main body through clones, but if the clones self-destruct, soul-type attacks are useless.

Lu Yunhe also possesses a soul-type treasure—the Ancestral Dragon Pearl—but it can basically only be used by Zetton's clone.

"However, I, your senior brother, have also used the Myriad Mirror before, and now I only have seven sub-bodies left. You must also use it carefully," the Chaos City Lord said slowly.

The Lord of Chaos City had used it before, but after reaching the level of the Lord of the Universe, he had more suitable treasures. There was no need to waste the sub-body of the Kaleidoscope, since it could not be restored.

"Thank you, senior brother!"

Holding the Mirror of Myriad Flowers, even though he was only carrying a split offspring, Lu Yunhe's soul could not be harmed by the Universe Venerable thanks to his immortal-level will and extraordinary state of mind.
