Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 1120

The hermit was pleased with himself. With the help of the power of the entire void, his unfolded body was nothing but a paper tiger, all show and no substance, but still in a state of ethereal emptiness.

This action was only intended to lure the Lord Source into unleashing a powerful primal attack, but unexpectedly, before he could even make a move, the other party fell right into the trap.

"He's still too young. He's only been a lord for a short time and isn't familiar with fighting the progenitor yet," the hermit thought to himself.

However, the hermit soon realized something was wrong; the power of the attack was abnormal.

That immeasurable light and immeasurable heat are like a giant light bulb, very bright, but without any substantial power.

"not good!"

The hermit's expression changed, and his previously ethereal gray mist body surged again, but he was still a step too slow.

A sword light slashed through the thick fog, pointing straight to the center of the fog under its illumination.

"You think you can fool me with such a small trick? Do you really think cultivators are like your ancestors, born strong?"

Lu Yunhe transformed into a sword light in the void, freezing the surrounding space and easily piercing through the gray mist.

Every lord has grown from weak to incredibly powerful, and their combat experience is incomparable to that of these naturally born chaotic beings.

The hermit made many subtle moves, but he overlooked the biggest problem: Lu Yunhe wasn't in a hurry at all; it was the hermit who should be anxious.

Since the advantage lies with Lu Yunhe, how could he possibly unleash the Primal Big Bang so easily in this environment?

"Hermit, you must not have much experience fighting people!" Lu Yunhe exclaimed, surprised that he had fallen for such a simple trick.

call out!

Lu Yunhe passed through the gray fog and came to a screen of light, its colors like the aurora borealis, yet transcending the endless world, beyond even the void to capture.

...

Chapter 979 The Robe of Seclusion

"Stop right there, Yuan!"

Upon witnessing this scene, the hermit felt a pang of heartache and couldn't help but roar in anger.

"Tch, you think you can just stop like that!"

Without hesitation, Lu Yunhe directly separated a wisp of his primordial power to try and touch the light screen in front of him.

However, the light screen in front of him seemed to be in another world, and Lu Yunhe's source power missed its target.

"It can actually exist independently in a place like the Void."

Lu Yunhe was surprised. It seemed that this treasure was of a high level. No wonder the hermit was so excited.

The matter and energy in the Void Land are so scarce that even the Primordial Ancestor could hardly touch the deeper layers of space.

This treasure can escape into another space here, isolating itself from the influence of the void, making it undoubtedly the most top-tier treasure in the endless primordial space.

"Untouchable..."

Lu Yunhe's face showed interest. In an instant, he made a claw gesture with his hand, gathering the power of the Three Thousand Great Daos in his hand, and then reached out to grab the light screen again.

After using his highest level of power, Lu Yunhe finally vaguely touched another world. The power in his hand enveloped the light screen like a giant net, trying to pull it out of the other world.

The treasure's power is the strongest, but it has clearly not yet surpassed the highest level of power. After all, it is something born from a mysterious place, and in essence, it is still inferior to the Primordial Ancestor.

Rumble…

Space trembled, and a world seemed to be being pulled out from the deepest void.

Just then, a vast power descended upon Lu Yunhe like a giant hand, instantly causing fluctuations throughout the entire space.

Ripples spread out wildly before disappearing into the endless void.

The movement was too large, and the power of the fluctuations was too strong, causing a backlash from the entire void.

The void does not allow such powerful energy fluctuations; the stronger the energy fluctuations, the more severe the backlash from the rules they cause.

Click!

Like the sound of an unnamed thread breaking, the power of rules that Lu Yunhe had used to encircle the light curtain burst open, just like countless threads breaking apart.

Ultimately, the power of the rules shattered completely when the light curtain was pulled out to about one-third of its original size.

Having lost the pull of the power of the rules, the revealed light curtain returned to another, deeper world.

Lu Yunhe realized that the light screen in front of him was more like a projection of the real treasure in the void, and that he had to pull it out completely if he wanted to get it.

However, because it is separated by a vast world, and it is a special world like the Void, the difficulty of capturing it, in addition to the size of the treasure itself, also requires a subtle struggle against the entire Void.

The Void, as part of the Eternal Land, possesses power that the Primordial Ancestor could not contend with.

Even a fraction of the Eternal Land's size far surpasses that of many mysterious lands.

Just like the Three Harmony Territory refined by Lu Yunhe, it's not even comparable to the Eternal Land, let alone the Void Land before us.

"Failed!"

Lu Yunhe clenched his fist, carefully sensing the collision and fluctuations of the three forces—himself, the light screen treasure, and the void—that had just intertwined.

Lu Yunhe, who was backed by cultivators, was not so concerned about treasures; instead, he was more interested in the impact on the Great Dao.

Resources, treasures, and even mysterious places are unimportant to cultivators; what matters is the Great Dao.

However, for the Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan, perhaps because he was born at the top of the world, he valued external things even more.

Yes, because these things really do make them stronger.

"Phew, failed!"

The hermit on the other side watched Lu Yunhe's actions, feeling relieved but also somewhat regretful.

He stayed there for a long time, trying various methods, but still couldn't pull the light curtain out of the depths of the void.

The lack of hope for success caused the hermit great distress.

The sudden appearance of the Lord's Source also brought a glimmer of hope to the Hermit. After all, between not being able to obtain it at all and trying to snatch it, the latter has a greater chance of success.

However, the fact that the Lord Source pulled out a third of it still startled the Hermit.

"It seems you've failed too, Yuan." The hermit's gray mist-like body, which blotted out the sky, reassembled and landed beside Lu Yunhe.

Lu Yunhe ignored the hermit's words and instead used the power of the Three Thousand Great Daos to condense a hand of rules, reaching out to grab the light screen in front of him.

Rumble…

The void was trembling, the rules were collapsing, and even the power of the Great Dao was being obliterated.

The light screen was pulled out from another world again, but this time Lu Yunhe did not wait for the collapse of the power of the rules. Instead, after pulling out a section of the light screen, he took the initiative to return the treasure.

Like a suitcase puller, it kept dragging, but in the end, it could not avoid the backlash from the void. The power of the greatsword in its hand was worn away and merged into the void.

"What does he want to do?"

The hermit watched Lu Yunhe's movements with intense concentration, afraid of missing even the slightest detail.

After all, cultivator lords in the Endless Chaotic Origin Space are known for their powerful talents and exceptional comprehension.

Even as enemies, they had to admit the powerful talent of cultivator lords, which was different from bloodline and birth, but rather a talent in spiritual enlightenment.

If the Primordial Ancestors of Hunyuan couldn't do it, then the Cultivator Lords might still be able to.

"Could it be that Lord Yuan has discovered something?" The hermit's emotions were complicated, unsure whether he should have any expectations.

After truly clashing with the cultivator lord, even the hermit was amazed by this miraculous person.

The existence of someone who grew from a weak mortal to a powerful being was beyond their imagination.

“Yuan, you’ve seen how troublesome this treasure is, haven’t you? Perhaps we can work together to materialize it first, what do you say?” the hermit said.

He wasted a great deal of time and energy on this treasure, and saw no hope of success.

If too much time is wasted, even if he has a high degree of adaptability to this environment, he will eventually be worn down.

In the Eternal Land, apart from that continent, once the location is lost, finding this treasure again is practically a pipe dream.

It's better to give it another shot than to fail in the end.

Most importantly, the hermit realized that he couldn't stop the Lord Source at all; the mere fact that he had been allowed to appear here meant he had already lost.

If the fight continues, it will only result in mutual destruction. Therefore, we can only choose a less bad future.

"cooperate!"

Lu Yunhe withdrew the power from his hand and focused his gaze on the hermit not far away.

“That’s right.” The hermit nodded. “Or are you confident that you can obtain this treasure on your own?”

The hermit's gaze was somewhat aggressive, his large single eye fixed on Lu Yunhe.

"After all, it's just an inanimate object. If we had enough time," Lu Yunhe calculated, and realized that it didn't seem like a very worthwhile investment for a treasure.

“We can cooperate, but I would appreciate it if you would provide me with a sample of your flesh and blood,” Lu Yunhe said.

"flesh!"

The hermit frowned upon hearing this. Anyone who has entered the world of cultivation values ​​their own flesh and blood and would not easily let it fall into the hands of others.

But if you ask me what you can actually do with these things? Not really.

Especially for immortal beings, the impact is even less; often, it's more about saving face than actually doing anything.

"can!"

The hermit pondered for a moment, then slowly cut off a piece of black mist and handed it to Lu Yunhe.

"Thank you..."

Lu Yunhe instantly sealed it completely and then sent it into his body.

Even a tiny bit of the flesh and blood of the Primordial Ancestor is incredibly precious, given how extremely difficult it is to obtain.

Aside from not having enough time to react, even in death, the Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan was unwilling to let his body fall into the hands of the enemy.

"Bloodline properties, regular structure, fundamental evolution..."

Although it is just a physical substance, the primordial life is one in ten thousand, and every strand of origin contains complete information.

"Not bad!"
