Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 421

After retrieving its true god soldiers and tossing them far away, the divine tree clone transformed into its true form and squeezed directly into this miniature universe.

A colossal tree, its canopy blotting out the sky, seemed to support the entire miniature universe like a giant tree.

The size of a small galaxy is indeed too small for an eternal true god; he has to squeeze into it.

However, for beings at this level, both body size and the range of their power are already under their complete control.

When needed, every move it makes can destroy a small universe spanning hundreds of millions of light-years, yet it can also remain within a hundred-square-meter storage ring without destroying anything.

"it is good!"

On the other side, General Jinwu also took a step forward, transforming directly into a golden giant. His feet were on the starry river, and his whole body shimmered with golden light, like a giant who created the world.

The stars that were staying in the Milky Way began to crackle and pop like candy beans after the golden giant squeezed in.

"Fifteenth-tier secret technique - Gate of Eternity".

Since it was already weaker, the Divine Tree clone chose to strike first.

The previous display of martial arts between the two true gods could only be considered a battle of wits; now, the battle of wits has begun, and the two true gods are clashing directly.

The next step is a fight to the death, with both sides unleashing their full power and resources in a fight to the death.

However, we haven't reached that stage yet. After all, it's not easy to cultivate into an eternal true god, where time doesn't fall and external things can't invade. Who would want to die unless absolutely necessary?

buzzing...

As soon as the fifteenth-level secret technique was unleashed, the branches extending from the main trunk of the divine tree clone quickly connected and merged, transforming into a huge wooden door.

The wooden door is carved with endless life on one side and the cosmos on the other, exuding an aura of eternity.

"fall!"

With a thought, the Divine Tree's avatar sent the Gate of Eternity across time and space directly onto the golden giant.

boom!

On the surface, a giant gate directly suppressed the golden giant.

In reality, under the suppression of the Gate of Eternity, General Jinwu felt his divine power and his origin being locked up inch by inch, and his life force was constantly flowing away.

What surprised General Jinwu the most was that even his realm as an Eternal True God could not stop this devouring power, and he could only let his divine power flow away.

Many abilities may seem powerful, but they are not very useful among those of the same level.

"Is this the eternal way he comprehended, or is it his innate talent?"

General Jin Wu clenched his fist, and the gold color on his body became even purer and sharper, as a terrifying power gathered within him.

"Let me... open it!"

With a roar, General Jinwu unleashed a torrent of divine power, causing his bare upper body to twist and bulge wildly.

Click click click...

The wooden Gate of Eternity, whose branches are constantly breaking, seems to be on the verge of collapse.

Under General Jinwu's absolute power, nothing and nothing can stop him in the slightest.

"Life...is eternal!"

Looking at the golden giant that seemed to be able to burst the sky, the divine tree's avatar also exuded a rich aura of life and eternity.

In an instant, new shoots sprouted from the broken part of the wooden door. These new implants, tempered by time, reconnected and replaced the broken parts, continuing to seal the golden giant.

The aura of the golden giant grew heavier and heavier, and the height of the Gate of Eternity continued to rise.

At this moment, General Jin Wu was like a giant supporting the sky. All his efforts seemed to make the world taller and heavier, but he himself would eventually be exhausted.

In a galaxy, a towering golden giant is firmly locked behind a door, yet the suppressed giant seems to be accumulating volcanic power.

Chapter 438 Battle against the Eternal True God

"Nice secret technique!"

General Jinwu stood with his shoulders braced against the massive doorway, his golden hands clenched into fists, and an invisible divine power surged within him.

“There is the Way of Eternity, there is the understanding of life… and there is also… the Way of the Divine Body.”

As the divine power within his body continued to drain away, General Jinwu finally realized where this irresistible force came from—the divine body's genes.

It seems the other party has incorporated their understanding of the divine body gene path into this secret technique, which is simply unbelievable.

General Jin Wu had also broken through to the True God realm using the first level of the Divine Power Flow, and had some understanding of the Divine Power Gene, which was why he was able to perceive this unique power.

"To what extent has your understanding of the divine power gene reached?"

Although there are few cultivators of the Eternal Path, General Jinwu has seen a few, but among the Eternal True Gods he knows, he has never seen anyone with such a high level of understanding of the essence of divine power genes.

"Truly worthy of being called the Eternal True God!"

The Divine Tree clone nodded. That's right. The thing he has grasped most deeply now is not the Eternal Void Dao, nor the Dao of Destruction, nor the Dao of the Universe's Operation, but the Divine Power Gene.

Beneath the black-patterned stone pillar, Lu Yunhe spent nearly ten reincarnations and, with the reference of the World Beast's genes, directly comprehended a gene that was 100,000 times stronger.

If the perfect gene is the child of the primordial universe, then the 100,000-fold gene can be considered the child of the supreme rules.

His understanding of divine power genes has reached a completely different level, surpassing even that of a god-king.

When creating this fifteenth-tier secret technique, the Divine Tree clone also combined its understanding of the divine power gene path with its talent for devouring divine power, integrating it into the Gate of Eternity.

The secret technique takes root in the divine body, directly devouring the opponent's divine power; it can even work against an Eternal True God of the same level.

The Gate of Eternity possesses immense suppressive power and can absorb divine power to repair damage. Even as an avatar, it can replenish itself, making it far superior to even the most powerful domain treasures. Most importantly, it can be stacked.

However, there are no invincible secret techniques, only invincible people. As a veteran eternal true god, General Jinwu would naturally not be stopped by a mere secret technique.

"Haha, Divine Tree, I'm becoming more and more interested in you. Your divine body must be very strong!"

General Jinwu clenched his fist, golden light emanating from his hand, as if he were grasping a universe of the very essence of gold.

Boom...

A loud bang echoed through the void, and golden light instantly filled the entire world.

The wooden Gate of Eternity trembled incessantly, and the branches on the door kept cracking; the rate of repair could not keep up with the rate of destruction.

This was just a prelude; the divine power surging from the golden giant was almost enough to burst the entire miniature universe.

"break!"

With a punch, it was as if the power of the Big Bang had exploded, and the spacetime within the entire miniature universe seemed to be reversing, and the River of Eternity was about to be severed.

The true power of a top-tier eternal true god is enough to shatter even a small universe of a void true god. The Gate of Eternity could not withstand it and broke apart instantly.

Countless fragments shot into the One Thought Universe, directly transforming vast swathes of void into forests, where countless lives were subtly evolving.

The secret technique that shattered the entire divine tree with a single punch did not diminish General Jinwu's power; it continued to sever space and time, striking the target.

"The Gate to Eternal Life!"

The divine tree clone trembled all over, and wooden doors exuding an aura of eternity appeared before General Jinwu's fist.

boom……

A gate to eternity was shattered, and scattered branches spread across the void, taking root and growing in the spacetime surrounding the golden giant.

Emerald green branches locked onto the space-time surrounding the golden giant, while simultaneously devouring its divine power.

boom……

The second Gate of Eternity was destroyed, and the scattered branches covered almost half of the golden giant's body.

The small universe, which was originally dyed gold, has now become vibrant with life, and countless primordial life forms have been born.

It may not be long before this universe of a single thought is even able to give birth to true intelligent life.

Although Jinwu Zhenshen's power was still formidable, his speed and strength had noticeably decreased after destroying two Eternal Gates in succession.

bang...

The golden giant's fist landed on the third Gate of Eternity, the sharp golden power intertwining with the life-filled gate.

Golden streams of energy spread outwards, then vanished into nothingness under the erosion of time.

The Gate of Eternity and the Golden Fist, two opposing forces, one hard and one soft, collided repeatedly, like yin and yang embracing each other, seemingly locked in a stalemate.

"sharp!"

The golden giant let out a soft shout, and his golden fist concentrated its power into a single point.

Even at the level of an Eternal True God, some basic physical rules still have some use.

Tear!

The golden light condensed into a single point, piercing directly through the invisible power within the Gate of Eternity. A golden fist burst through the gate and struck straight at the towering Jianmu tree in front of it.

The golden fist approached little by little, each step forward seemingly carrying the weight of the universe and spacetime, with endless spacetime forces pulling and tormenting it wildly.

At the same time, countless branches began to grow from the pierced door, seemingly trying to completely envelop the fist.

At this moment, the golden giant seemed to be wrapped in a layer of vine armor, making his body almost impossible to see clearly.

"Even a difference of just one rank can create a significant gap in raw strength!"

The divine tree's tree-like body slowly shrank back, and countless branches that had grown outwards converged towards the two core points, transforming into two incredibly thick arms.

Although his secret technique was magical in nature, it was ultimately only at the fifteenth level, and still could not compare to the power of General Jinwu's sixteenth-level secret technique.

However, the difference of only one level, though significant, is still within our control.

"An eternal moment!"

The divine tree clone clenched its wooden fist and suddenly slammed it down hard on the golden giant wrapped in vines in front of it.

bang...

The wooden fist struck the vines on the golden giant, detonating all the power that had been binding it.

Even though the power of the four Eternal Gates was partially neutralized by the Golden Giant, the remaining power, combined with the attack from the Divine Tree clone, still surpassed the level of the fifteenth rank.

Moreover, these forces exploded seamlessly directly onto the golden giant, without being neutralized in the slightest.

"burst!"
