Swallowing the Stars: The Puzzle of Everything!

Chapter 7 The Chaotic Fire, the Law of Heaven and Earth

Crimson flames exploded in the void, turning into a sea of ​​fire.

The surrounding five elemental rings shattered under the impact of the sea of ​​fire. The fragments swirled around Perseus, transforming into a multicolored ring composed of a large amount of energy mist. It unleashed a suction force, drawing energy from the bottomless darkness around it.

Gradually, the ball of light became more active.

As countless red lights emerged, Perseus began to undergo earth-shattering changes.

The first thing that changed was his bald head.

Strands of strong red hair grew out, fluttering like burning flames, but upon closer inspection, they looked like upright steel needles.

At the same time, Perseus's body began to change, from his original robust physique to a slender and upright one, his one head and six arms became three heads and six arms, and then he returned to one head and two arms.

The crimson cracks resembled magma seeping from the earth, bursting forth with a scorching and violent aura. After a while, they converged and hid on the surface of the crystal-clear skin, only turning into a strange fire pattern on the forehead.

Most importantly, it is a subtle change that occurs deep within the soul, a change that cannot be described in words.

Perseus could vaguely sense that his soul had undergone a series of changes in sync with his body, which meant that even the Lord of the Universe would not be able to recognize him as an alien.

And just as Perseus's image perfectly matched that of a certain great god in mythology.

The starry sky above.

An extremely vast and noble aura descended from the infinite distance, sweeping across the newly born special life below across time and distance.

"Rumble..."

Terrifying lightning spread, and countless seven-colored divine chains intertwined to form a phantom eye. Finally, as the strange phenomenon disappeared, a stream of light flew down from above and merged into Perseus's body, granting him two innate secret techniques.

"The Fire That Shakes the Heavens" and "The Law of Heaven and Earth."

Among them, Chaotic Flame is an amplification ability that can continuously grow.

The demonic bloodline within his body was newly born, and the Chaotic Flame that was nurtured along with it was still in its most rudimentary state, only able to amplify the material attack power by 3 times, and its effect on annihilating matter and energy was extremely weak.

But this is temporary.

As long as enough fire-attribute treasures are absorbed, not only will the amplification ratio of the Chaotic Heaven Fire to material attacks increase, but its annihilation ability will also undergo a transformation.

"Annihilation? Targeting divine bodies?"

Perseus took out a crystal core and casually wiped it.

Instantly, as if erased by an eraser, the crystal core that could have raised a star level eight rank by one rank vanished without a sound, leaving not even the slightest ripple.

Seeing this, Perseus couldn't help but swallow hard.

"Is this faint?"

If this ability to obliterate is still weak, then what is the point of my attack? Just a tickle?

And this force—

Sensing the abnormality in his body, Perseus casually threw a punch. The terrifying force merely grazed the atmosphere on one side of Kungula Star, yet it instantly created a storm. Judging from the sheer power of this attack, his strength at this moment had definitely reached the cosmic level.

"The genetic level of life is... 36 times higher?!"

Based on this calculation, Perseus's physical attributes can actually be considered as those of a cosmic-level being.

With a life gene level more than 10 times higher, coupled with the Chaotic Flame, his combat power was greatly amplified. Even now, when facing a fifth-tier cosmic-level powerhouse, Perseus dares to rely on his talent to go up and fight him.

Of course, there is also the factor that the pronucleus does not have any vital organs after it is born.

Thinking of this, Perseus lowered his head, extended a wisp of his mental energy, and looked inward at the dark red, lotus-bud-shaped crystal at the Tanzhong acupoint on his chest, as well as a sea of ​​fire floating inside it.

The crystal has a total of 36 facets.

Besides the secret runes depicting the "Chaotic Heavenly Fire," there is also a combat-related talent technique involving spatial laws.

"The law of Heaven and Earth—"

As the shout rang out, streams of energy surged from the unknown land and quickly merged into Perseus's body.

Subsequently, not only did his height increase to 10,000 meters, but his combat power also increased tenfold instantly, and even the energy within his body increased to its current level.

This is a comprehensive enhancement!

Not only did their physical fitness and defensive capabilities improve, but their souls also seemed to transform into a deity high above heaven and earth, observing the world and overlooking the stars.

However, this talent clearly consumes some kind of unknown 'energy'.

Perseus could sense that once he activated the Heaven and Earth Transformation Technique, his own malevolent energy would rapidly dissipate, and he would need to replenish it...

A gust of wind fell silently toward Kungula Star.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

"Simply by killing, one can accumulate murderous intent. The more people one kills, the longer the blessing brought by the Law of Heaven and Earth will last. This talent can even stack its amplitude."

Only then did Perseus truly feel that he had the confidence to stand firm in the Devouring Star.

The two secret techniques were merely additional benefits brought about by his bloodline; what truly excited him was his ability to sense the fluctuations of the laws of fire and space.

It's like taking off your glasses when you're nearsighted, and the world unveils itself.

The transformation of his life's genetic level had already enhanced his understanding in this area, and now, with the activation of the Law of Heaven and Earth, the state of "divine enlightenment" allowed Perseus to perceive the pulse of heaven and earth.

Instinctively, he reached out his hand.

A faint red light spread from his fingertips, instantly condensing into a field. With this action, the nine miniature stars rotating within his body also began to tremble violently.

"Click...click...click..."

Dense cracks spread across the planet.

Perseus seemed to sense something and directly dispelled the Law of Heaven and Earth.

The sudden restoration of his body size caused the gathered cosmic energy to disperse continuously, while the suction force brought about by the breakthrough quickly grabbed a considerable portion of the energy, which poured into his body in a continuous stream, causing the nine stars to explode and shrink to form a vortex galaxy with eight spiral arms.

The transformed Force spread rapidly.

As Perseus's body grew stronger, his power naturally increased to a level comparable to the sixth rank of the cosmic level.

Having confirmed that this transformation only went this far, he quickly landed from the sky and met Nolan's eyes as Nolan sensed the movement and was about to take off.

"Perseus, you..."

"Let's talk about it when we get back."

As he spoke, Perseus touched his short hair, his equally dark red eyes revealing a hint of savagery. If Nolan didn't know his past identity, he probably would have thought that he was a branch of the human race.

The two returned to the Secret Pattern Flying Tower.

Perseus then explained to Nolan his actions of "minor" genetic modification.

"You dare to do something so dangerous?"

Nolan's eyes widened in disbelief; he simply couldn't comprehend how a novice like Perseus could dare to perform such a difficult maneuver.

Modifying genes can easily lead to physical collapse and death if done carelessly. If anything goes wrong, given the current level of technology in the universe, there is no way to save the body.

Perseus, on the other hand, seemed completely unconcerned.

"But I've already succeeded, haven't I?"

"Nolan, we now have an opportunity to modify your appearance and disguise yourself as a human. This change also affects your soul, so there will be virtually no flaws. Will you take it or not?"

Nolan frowned. "Then how do we get back to our clan?"

"You know, if genes and souls change too much, they can't resonate with the sacrificial runes, and we..."

The words he was about to say were cut short. Looking at the chip flashing in Perseus's palm, Nolan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"It is indeed a small change!"

"The ritual runes are still effective, so I'll make the same modifications—if I can infiltrate the human race, I'll make sure they suffer."
