Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 351

If humanity truly possesses the strength to single-handedly kill the strongest being in the cosmic ocean, then it might even be able to directly rule the primordial universe.

With the Lord of Ultra suppressing the race internally and the Lord of Eternity possessing unparalleled power externally, the human race's development has reached its zenith.

"The Demon Ancestor is currently in the Cosmic Sea. With the actions of the strongest beings, finding him shouldn't be difficult," said the Chaos City Lord. Because of the Lord of Ultra, the strongest beings were not keen to stay in the Primal Universe.

However, they will soon find out that even staying in the cosmic ocean is just as dangerous.

"Um…"

Lu Yunhe nodded, then left the virtual universe to continue his journey through the Trial Tower.

The second level of the Trial Tower!

With the Time Palace accelerating the process ten thousand times, Lu Yunhe quickly added new elements to his secret technique.

With his high level of cultivation and talent, as long as he finds the right direction, simply improving the secret technique won't waste much of Lu Yunhe's time.

Lu Yunhe entered the secret room, and the blue light armor was once again draped over his body, instantly activating his monster fire fist.

buzzing...

Seeing the monster's still fierce and powerful fist, Lu Yunhe's Shattered Void Sword trembled slightly, and a wave of intent like flowing water was hidden within the sword.

boom!

The next moment, the trembling sword collided with the fiery red fist once again, and the transmitted power was continuously worn down by the trembling sword.

"Faced with a fifth-tier monster, the damage to the light armor was reduced to three ten-thousandths!"

Looking at the armor's defense value, Lu Yunhe smiled slightly. After spending tens of thousands of years, he had finally been able to integrate the corresponding techniques into the secret method.

If he were still at the level of a fifth-tier universe master and fought another fifth-tier universe master with the same configuration, and the two fought to the death, he would still be the one to survive in the end, and might even have one-third or half of his health left.

Of course, if facing an opponent who is also at the seventh level, the effect is not as good after the realm is higher; it can only be considered icing on the cake.

Nine minutes passed before they knew it, and in the clash with the monster Fire Fist, Lu Yunhe's blue light armor defense value remained at 50%.

Nine minutes later, the monster's aura expanded again, directly reaching the eighth level.

As the punch came, Lu Yunhe quickly activated the eighth-order secret technique of the True God-level treasure, the Shattering Void Sword.

boom!

With a single move, Lu Yunhe's light armor defense value was reduced to a mere sliver of health.

"Slip away, slip away!"

Lu Yunhe's current cultivation level is only at the seventh level. To unleash the strength of the eighth level, he basically has to rely on external objects, so there is not much point in him staying any longer.

call out!

With a thought arising, Lu Yunhe moved instantly, his movement technique, which had also reached the True God level, directly bypassing the monster's fire fist attack and rushing towards the light screen behind it.

When Lu Yunhe's body came into contact with the light screen, his light armor instantly merged with it, pushing him inside and into the third level of the Trial Tower.

With Lu Yunhe's departure, the monster in the secret room lost its target and stopped, like a robot.

Chapter 384 The third level

Three thousand points!

Lu Yunhe looked at the points that had increased on the token; they were enough to buy one or two supreme treasures.

Although the monster's strength reaches the seventh rank in the last three minutes, you don't need to be at the seventh rank to get past it if you choose to either withstand the attack or dodge.

After glancing at the points on the token, Lu Yunhe looked around. The endless plain was completely flat and empty.

"The third level of the Trial Tower!"

Before Lu Yunhe could wait any longer, the ground in front of him suddenly trembled, and a figure slowly materialized from the ground.

She was dressed entirely in blue, with floral cloud patterns carved on her clothes. Her long hair even reached her waist, giving her an incredibly elegant appearance. There were also eye shadow marks around her eyes.

The long-haired man looked at Lu Yunhe and nodded slightly: "It has been many years since anyone came here. Eternal Master, inner disciple, I hope you will not disappoint me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a vortex suddenly rose from the ground beneath the long-haired man's feet, projecting a black longsword.

At the same time, the long-haired man exuded a soaring fighting spirit, as if he had transformed into a battle sword that could cleave the sky, its blade pointing directly at Lu Yunhe opposite him.

"Let's fight!"

Lu Yunhe held the Shattered Void Sword in his hand, his fighting spirit burning as he stared at the long-haired man opposite him. The first two trials were merely to fill in the gaps in his knowledge, but this trial was to test his true combat strength.

"Very good." The long-haired man grinned. "Take my first move."

Wow!

The long-haired man leaped slightly into the air, his sword shadows ethereal, appearing one after another. In an instant, countless sword shadows appeared, as if turning everything around into a world of swords.

Every sword shadow was real and tangible, exuding a chilling aura.

"Nothing special!" Lu Yunhe's gaze sharpened, and with a flick of his Shattering Void Sword, a sword aura capable of shattering a world soared into the sky, directly tearing apart the long-haired man's sword world.

"Not bad, take my second move!"

The long-haired man was unconcerned about his move being broken and immediately prepared a second attack.

In an instant, countless shattered sword shadows condensed into a giant sword in the long-haired man's hand, and then slashed towards Lu Yunhe.

The long-haired man rushed forward with incredible speed, as if he had gone mad. His aura was overwhelming, and his entire being was like a raging flame. His sword strike was defying the heavens, and with boundless power, he delivered a vertical slash...

"change!"

Faced with the long-haired man's attack, Lu Yunhe used the Shattering Void Sword to deflect the attack, directly applying the force-dissipating technique he had just learned to his opponent.

For some inexplicable reason, the moment the two swords made contact, a simultaneous sensation arose, and I lost control of the swords, and was then flung away.

"The third move!"

The long-haired man, who had been thrown back, then charged forward at an even faster speed, his divine body moving at incredible speed, instantly transforming into a whirlwind.

…………

"The eighth move!"

"The thirty-sixth move!"

"The eighty-eighth move!"

"The 155th move!"

……

The long-haired man was like a madman; if one of his swords was blocked, he would immediately use another sword technique, and each sword technique was different.

However, although the sword techniques are different, they are all based on the Ten Great Laws, and can be called the legendary basic sword techniques.

The cultivation of the Path of Laws, whether it is the fusion of laws or the higher-level Chaos Laws, is based on these ten laws.

While cultivation at other levels doesn't place much emphasis on foundational knowledge, it's best to build a solid foundation at the level of the Lord of the Universe to ensure smoother cultivation later on.

The long-haired man's swordsmanship can all be categorized into the ten basic principles of 'metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, time, and space'.

The long-haired man used eighteen different sword techniques based solely on the Law of Fire, each with a different artistic conception and power at the top level of the sixth rank.

It's almost unbelievable that such a heaven-defying sword technique could be created from a single fundamental principle.

Lu Yunhe had already comprehended the ten fundamental laws during the Eternal Evolution, and could only create a fifth-order perfect secret technique using a single fundamental law.

His sixth-order secret technique was created based on two fundamental laws, while his seventh-order secret technique involved three fundamental laws.

Although their power may be the same, their foundations are indeed a whole level apart.

Therefore, although the white-robed bald man only used a sixth-order secret technique, Lu Yunhe still enjoyed the fight to the fullest.

Each encounter allowed Lu Yunhe to gain new insights into the Ten Fundamental Laws.

The long-haired man's swordsmanship was extremely standard and basic, not at all like something he had figured out on his own. It was probably an intelligence created from the top down by a higher level of being.

While fighting the long-haired man, Lu Yunhe used the increased speed in the Time Palace to study each of his opponent's sword techniques.

"The 365th move!"

After unleashing this sword strike, the long-haired man paused slightly: "It seems that this is merely a sixth-level technique, completely ineffective against you."

"Next, I'm going to use a seventh-level secret technique."

"Take this, my 367th sword strike!"

The long-haired man unleashed a sword strike, and instantly a strange beast, its feet treading on flames and roaring, appeared.

"The God of Fire!" Lu Yunhe was extremely wary.

"Ho~~~"

With a flash of sword light, the roaring fire beast god appeared, filled with boundless rage and madness. Head bowed, its body engulfed in flames, it crashed down like a stream of fire.

boom!

The fiery red figure left a scorching mark in the void.

"Wow~~"

"Radiant light and dazzling gold!"

A dazzling light shone forth, and the three colors of light—water, fire, and metal—converged together, directly engulfing the giant beast before them, supported by an invisible space.

Faced with the long-haired man's attack, Lu Yunhe had no choice but to use the seventh-order secret technique "Flowing Light and Sparkling Gold" that he had created not long ago.

"It seems this level will test your basic secret techniques."

Lu Yunhe's expression tightened as he blocked the attack. Although both techniques were at the same seventh level, Lu Yunhe, who had only recently created his own, did not have much of an advantage.

Of course, defeating the long-haired man is just the goal; the process in between is the most important.

Compared to the first two levels, the third level is obviously more challenging and offers greater benefits.

The first two levels can be passed by other means or by clever tricks, but the third level tests one's true strength.

In the first 365 moves, Lu Yunhe also secretly used the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique.

They discovered that the long-haired man's basic strength had also increased by one level, directly leveling off his divine power burning.

In this way, things like the most powerful treasures, mechanical treasures, and divine power burning techniques, which can be considered external objects, are basically useless; only combat techniques are tested.
