Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 520

Under the threat of the Beast Realm and the Void of Destruction, the vast majority of forces on the Origin Continent were mobilized, including countless True Gods, Chaos Rulers, and even God-King powerhouses.

The Origin lineage occupied the original territory of the Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom, making it its core territory, and then reintegrated it into the Origin Continent.

At the same time, the Origin lineage also made deals with those kingdoms that had lost their god-kings, purchasing parts of their territory in exchange for benefits.

However, this part will be almost scattered throughout the entire Origin Continent, and can only serve as some scattered supplements, but it can still be considered as enriching the branches of the Origin Clan.

The other god-kings were aware of this, but the Origin lineage didn't go too far, so they turned a blind eye.

The Origin God was indeed quite sensible; he didn't offer much support to these scattered territories, simply allowing them to intrude freely.

However, the Origin Gods also had their own ulterior motives, choosing to trade with kingdoms that had lost their God-King.

Although the rules of the Pantheon exist and no one forces these kingdoms, the Pantheon can protect them for thousands or even tens of thousands of reincarnations, but it is impossible for them to protect them until the world is destroyed.

If no god-king is born within a certain period of time, these kingdoms will naturally decline and eventually only their core territories will remain, or they may even be directly merged into other kingdoms.

That will be the opportunity for the Origin Clan to seize another part of their territory.

After all, the God-King is the core of a powerful nation.

At the same time, the establishment of the Pantheon completely changed the landscape of the Origin Continent.

Ninety percent of the forces and God-Kings of the entire Origin Continent have joined them, which can be considered as nominally ruling the entire Origin Continent.

After the establishment of the Pantheon, not to mention the power of the God-King, the forces established by various Chaos Overlords also gave them a fright.

Although the God-King's power is overwhelming, under various circumstances, there are still many Chaos Rulers who are unwilling to accept the God-King's rule and have established their own forces; and this number is not small.

After all, if the Chaos Ruler wants to give up, even the God King won't actively interfere.

These chaotic rulers, tempted by the dimensional origin crystals, also became active.

As for those below the Chaos Ruler, they are not even worth a glance and do not even qualify to join the Pantheon.

The Pantheon hopes that the beings under the Chaos Ruler will maintain their competitive and combative attitude and remain sufficiently active.

No matter how many of these true gods, even eternal true gods, die, it's still a gain as long as one Chaos Ruler emerges.

As for beings at the level of Chaos Ruler and above, the Pantheon hopes that they can directly deal with the Realm Beasts and the Destruction Demons, rather than engaging in internal strife.

After completing the nominal integration of the Origin Continent, they also began to cultivate the next generation.

After all, cultivators cannot directly nurture cultivators of various levels like world beasts and the destroyers of void dimensions. Therefore, they can only allocate resources accordingly.

Various resources were also generously offered, including cultivation resources, secret cultivation methods, guidance from powerful individuals, and more.

In times of chaos, heroes emerge. The cultivation resources and secret techniques that had been so scarce that everyone was struggling to survive were generously released by the Temple of Gods.

If they seize this opportunity, even ordinary cultivators can have a chance to defy fate.

After all, for some people, sometimes it's not a matter of lacking the aptitude, but rather a lack of even the opportunity to come into contact with it, such as the inheritance of divine power...

The only thing that the Pantheon regrets is that although it opened up the inheritance of divine power, it even gave the fourth layer of 100,000 times the gene to those geniuses.

Unfortunately, so many eras have passed, and not a single Law Master has comprehended the 100,000-fold gene.

Even among the God Kings, only the Purple Wood God King's divine body has reached this level so far; the other God Kings are still in the process of comprehending it.

However, even if one comprehends it, it will be too late. The internal universe structure is already fixed, and at most, the divine body can make further progress, unless one can make up one's mind to perform the reincarnation secret technique...

However, many god-kings did not have a deep understanding of the reincarnation technique, and some of it was forbidden and could not be used at will...

In addition to the geniuses cultivated locally, the ascendants from the three thousand dimensions also received special attention.

If you want to create god-kings and chaos rulers in a short period of time, cultivating these people is the fastest way.

Especially after the ability to mass-produce dimensional origin crystals, even some ordinary ascendants have value in being nurtured.

After all, the key to possession lies in the soul's will, not in one's cultivation level.

However, the Origin Continent still lacks the ability to interfere with the three thousand dimensions. It can only occasionally release some inheritances into the cosmic sea. As for whether it will succeed, it depends on whether the original cosmic will allows it.

In a nameless, small power on the Origin Continent, the Eastern Emperor Ancestor looked thoughtfully at the information he had gathered.

"No wonder Zi Yue has been targeting the Eternal Lord. So that's why. Is she trying to seize control of the Primordial Universe?"

When the Eastern Emperor arrived on the Origin Continent, he joined only an ordinary Eternal True God force, without any inheritance regarding the Three Thousand Dimensions.

However, now that the inherited information has been lost, some forces of the Eternal True Gods have also obtained the corresponding information.

Although he discovered his own uniqueness, the Eastern Emperor Ancestor was not very excited about it, since his universe had produced an extremely powerful being.

He broke through to the realm of Eternal True God in a mere few hundred billion epochs. Even in the Origin Continent, he would be an absolute genius. He would probably have already possessed the will of the primordial universe by now, and it would be completely out of his reach.

With such talent, coupled with the possession of the original cosmic will, even the Chaos Ruler is nothing special, and even a God-King has a certain probability of achieving it.

"God King!"

The Eastern Emperor Ancestor sighed, determined to cling to the leg of the Eternal Lord.

The Eastern Emperor Ancestor was quite self-aware. Even with training, he could only hope to break through to become an Eternal True God, and his chances of seizing control of the Primordial Universe were slim.

Compared to the sensible Eastern Emperor, the Purple Moon Ancestor on the other side was much angrier.

"Why? Why is the Pantheon only appearing now?" The Purple Moon Ancestor was furious.

After ascending to the Origin Continent, the Purple Moon Ancestor, whose identity was exposed, joined a Chaos Overlord-level force and received special training.

But how can the cultivation of a Chaos Ruler compare to that of the Pantheon?

"If the Pantheon had appeared sooner, I would have had a chance to break through to the Eternal True God realm, and my will would have advanced further. At that time, I would have had the opportunity to possess the primordial universe..."

The Purple Moon Ancestor's face was ferocious, but he seemed to have forgotten that the Eastern Emperor Ancestor was even stronger than him in terms of potential, and even if there was an opportunity, it wouldn't be his turn.

As for now, the destruction of his microcosm within the cosmic sea has completely extinguished all his thoughts.

Without the microcosms within the cosmic ocean, what would one use to willfully seize control of the primordial universe?

Even if one were to defy fate and reshape their microcosm, they would likely only be able to walk on the path of origin, rather than in the ocean of the universe.

Moreover, at this moment, what the Purple Moon Ancestor was most worried about was not the matter of seizing the original universe, but whether the Eternal Lord would come to cause him trouble.

"To be sanctified, to be the God-King..."

As the Purple Moon Ancestor murmured these two realms, a sense of fear overwhelmed his anger.

The Origin Lineage, the God King Lineage, the Ascended Lineage, as well as the Realm Beasts and the Destruction Demons—numerous forces intertwine.

Although only billions of epochs have passed, the intensity of the conflicts that have erupted during this period is thousands of times greater than in the past.

Cultivators of all levels are either killing or competing, all seeking what they want.

……

Outside the void of the Destruction Dimension, with the combined support of all forces across the Origin Continent, a void fortress resembling a simplified version of a Dyson sphere appeared on its outer perimeter.

Because the dimension of destruction is constantly expanding, the god-kings neither intended to completely enclose it nor could they do so; they could only build a defensive fortress.

Just then, a radiant sphere with spikes on its surface darted wildly through the chaotic void and soon landed outside a void fortress.

As the sphere gradually transformed, an invisible wave swept across the area.

"The Void Saint—Griza, permission granted!"

As the ripples subsided, a crystal-clear bridge of guidance swiftly rose and descended beneath the feet of the newcomer.

Immediately, the sphere transformed into a human form with hands and feet, and its body was covered with colorful muscle lines. The most eye-catching feature was a yellow, translucent, faceless head.

Greeza is a major villain from Ultraman X. He comes from an unknown realm and is said to be a void.

This being, though called nothingness, needs to feed on life and was even thrown into the sun, where it fell into hibernation.

After breaking through to True God, Lu Yunhe no longer had any bottlenecks. After the breakthrough of Sphia's clone, he took the opportunity to get even closer to becoming a Chaos Ruler, and thus obtained two exchange opportunities.

Still adhering to the principle of keeping something in reserve, Lu Yunhe used only one exchange opportunity to choose to create another clone.

Then, he drew the so-called Void-like Griza, but after the localization changes in the "Illustrated Guide", it became a naturally born Void life form, representing the Void.

Previously, it was a powerful clone, which might have been somewhat useful.

As for now, since he comprehended the Way of Genes, most of the monsters' abilities have become meaningless to him, with only the ability to create an independent clone still having a use.

With a gene density of 100,000 times, formlessness, infinite transformations, and a body like a vast universe, even a monster like Pigmon could become an existence defying the heavens.

Although Lu Yunhe wasn't particularly concerned about the monster's abilities, now that he possessed the Destruction Dimension and the Void Life Avatar, he was prepared to devote some of his attention to comprehending the Void Dao.

The various primordial paths overlap to some extent, so even if one devotes a portion of their attention to them, it has no impact and can even better assist the cultivation of other primordial paths.

Therefore, Greiza's clone came to the Destruction Dimension, an excellent place to cultivate the Void Dao.

It is said that due to the existence of the Destroyer Dimension Void, the number of cultivators of the Void Path has increased significantly in recent years, and almost all of them have gathered here.

As for the Void Saint, it was naturally a title that Greza's clone had established during this period, and it was the title that other Chaos Rulers respected.

The entire Destruction Void Dimension had long been controlled by the God-Kings, and both leaving and entering were subject to extremely strict monitoring.

Even if it's a clone of Greiza, it can only join the Pantheon first and obtain an identity before coming here.

Then, Greeza's clone stepped onto the Crystal Bridge and slowly approached the Void Fortress.

What appears to be a crystal bridge beneath our feet is actually a tangible manifestation of the void, possessing functions such as detection, guidance, connection, and attack.

Nine void fortresses were built on the Origin Continent, each with at least God-King level combat power. Each fortress either contained the God-King's true form or a God-King's avatar, and each fortress was capable of unleashing God-King level attack power.

The avatar of Greiza headed to the ninth place, a place reserved for those below the God-King.

The entire void fortress is not large, with its main body only about ten light-years away. However, because they are interconnected, the space it can cover exceeds a trillion light-years, firmly sealing off the dimension of destruction within it.

"Void Fortress!"

Greza's clone let out a strange laugh, and then, with a distortion of space, it merged into the fortress.

The interior of the Void Fortress is also very large, but there are not many cultivators gathered here. Most of them are searching for opportunities in the Destruction Void Dimension.

Moreover, they are not all chaotic rulers; there are also some eternal true gods who are willing to risk their lives.

However, these people are not weak, and most of them possess strength comparable to the Hybrid Overlord.

However, there is still a small group of people who, despite possessing only the top-tier strength of an Eternal True God, have come here entirely to risk their lives.

After all, in a place like this, the probability of breaking through by risking one's life is quite high.

Those black-armored Destruction Demons only possess the combat power of Eternal True Gods. After killing them and devouring the dimensional origin crystals, they can naturally increase their chances of breaking through.

After all, those who reach the peak of the Eternal True God realm theoretically all have the opportunity to break through.
