Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 120

Outside the wooden house!

As soon as the Ultraman clone opened its eyes, it saw a familiar figure approaching.

"Master...no!"

The man before them did indeed resemble the original, but unlike the original's genuine warmth, the man before them was more like a mechanical imitator.

"Master? You saw the master?"

Upon hearing Ultraman's words, the man in front of him, who bore an eight-tenths resemblance to the original Ultraman, became excited.

"Owner!"

Upon hearing the man's address to the Primordial Ancestor, Lu Yunhe instantly thought of a certain mechanical race's cosmic ruler whom the Primordial Ancestor had once enslaved, who was also the controller of the virtual universe's operation.

“I did see the original.” The Ultraman clone nodded calmly.

"The light has changed!"

At this moment, Lu Yunhe, on the other side, looked at the changes in Ultraman's clone and became thoughtful.

Although everyone shares the same consciousness, the manifestation of each individual consciousness will differ slightly due to the different host bodies. After all, matter determines consciousness, and the characteristics of the body can also interfere with consciousness.

The Golden Dragon clone is more indifferent, the Zetton clone is more brutal, the Ultraman clone is more approachable, and the human body is relatively neutral.

As for the Divine Tree clones, as the name suggests, their consciousness tends to be more woody and they basically don't have much thought.

"It seems our efforts weren't in vain!"

The figure in the white robe murmured to himself, his emotions gradually calming down.

Meeting the original ancestor was just the beginning; what they really wanted to do was to rescue the original ancestor.

Just then, the person who was about to say something suddenly stopped moving as if the power had gone out.

"The Internet is down?"

Lu Yunhe and the Ultraman clone looked at each other, but did not make any extra movements, and just waited quietly.

Without keeping Lu Yunhe waiting any longer, the figure quickly reconnected and became respectful in tone: "Young Master Yunhe, I am your servant. You may call me 'Xu Pu'."

"A virtual servant, a servant of the virtual universe?" Lu Yunhe thought to himself upon hearing this name.

"This isn't the place to talk, let's go to the virtual universe first!"

"Hmm, it seems the Primordial Ancestor has already made contact with this mechanical servant."

Upon hearing Xu Pu's words, Lu Yunhe's heart stirred. It seemed that the changes caused by Ultraman's clone were greater than he had imagined.

Lu Yunhe then entered the virtual universe and found himself in a chaotic void, with faint chaotic air currents floating around him.

"follow me!"

Upon seeing Lu Yunhe appear, the illusory servant immediately led the group through the vast and endless virtual chaos.

As the Void Servant flew through the vast chaos, it recounted the deeds of its master, the Primordial Ancestor.

"The master's name is Yuanzu. He once led the human race to dominate the entire primordial universe. He was invincible throughout the universe. In the entire primordial universe and even the Chaos Sea, the master was undoubtedly invincible."

Upon hearing Xu Pu's account, Lu Yunhe was secretly astonished. To achieve such accomplishments so soon after the beginning of the cosmic era, the Primordial Ancestor's talent was beyond doubt.

After being released by the primordial cosmic will, he immediately broke through to the Void True God realm.

"...However, while searching for a way for humanity to transcend the cycle of reincarnation and achieve eternal existence, the master was tragically suppressed and imprisoned forever..."

Xu Pu spoke calmly, but his tone carried a strong sense of hatred.

Sensing the hatred in Xu Pu's tone, Lu Yunhe couldn't help but fall silent, recalling the last words of the Primordial Ancestor.

Lu Yunhe didn't really want to comment on the suppression of the Primordial Ancestor. As a human, he should naturally stand on the side of humanity. However, he also didn't have any ill feelings towards the Primordial Universe Will, since the latter itself did not possess complete intelligence.

It's just that the suppression of the progenitor and the death of the giant axe were both necessary for the plot.

"arrive!"

Lu Yunhe was jolted awake from his reverie, and was immediately stunned by the enormous statue before him.

Metal, wood, water, fire, earth; wind, thunder, light; time, space—endless laws and energy intertwine with the statue.

It was as if what stood before Lu Yunhe was not a statue, but a universe in motion.

However, while the statue before them was very impressive, it still couldn't compare to the endless points of light in the mysterious space that Ultraman's clone had just entered.

However, Lu Yunhe discovered that this virtual universe origin was essentially the same as the origin in the origin land that Ultraman's clone had just visited.

"Was this primordial land of the virtual universe truly created by the original ancestor himself?" Lu Yunhe pondered in his mind.

At this moment, a man in scales had been waiting for a long time in front of the huge statue.

Lu Yunhe approached the man with the scales and saw the true appearance of the entire statue, which was exactly the same as the primordial being he had seen in the prison.

After Lu Yunhe arrived, the eyes of the giant statue trembled slightly, and a faint yet incredibly clear voice rang out: "Yunhe, you've come!"

"Master!"

Upon hearing these words, which sounded exactly like those from the prison, Lu Yunhe immediately bowed and greeted them.

"This is your senior brother, Chaos."

A gentle voice rang out, and Lu Yunhe turned his gaze to the scaled man beside him.

"Senior Brother Chaos!" Lu Yunhe said respectfully, but the latter seemed to be still immersed in his own thoughts and ignored his words.

"This is the scoundrel... no... the Lord of Chaos City."

At this moment, the Lord of Chaos City acted like an ordinary being, completely failing to display the demeanor of a top-tier universe lord.

In the original story, the Lord of Chaos City suppressed two people who dared to fight in Chaos City with his first move. His power to control time and space left Luo Feng with endless longing.

Unfortunately, in front of the Primordial Ancestor, Chaos's growth behaved like that of a child who never grew up.

"Chaos, your junior brother is right here. Don't act like a child."

The voice of the Primordial Ancestor awakened the Chaos City Lord, who was immersed in inner joy and excitement.

"Yes!"

The Lord of Chaos suppressed his excitement and looked at his junior brother beside him, his eyes filled with deep gratitude.

"Junior brother, thank you for your contributions to the human race."

In the eyes of the Chaos City Lord, the Primordial Ancestor was absolutely the most important existence of the human race, and he was willing to pay any price as long as the Primordial Ancestor could be released.

Although the original ancestor is still suppressed, compared to being unable to respond at all before, at least some limited communication can now be carried out, which is a good start.

And all of this stems from Lu Yunhe, who is standing right in front of us.

For some reason, the primordial cosmic will relaxed its suppression of the progenitor somewhat, allowing him to have some limited communication with the outside world.

After all, although the supreme law has been violated, the degree of imprisonment and confinement can be negotiated, depending on whether the original universe is willing or not.

If they were unwilling, no matter how strong the original ancestor was, they would still have to obediently be locked up in solitary confinement.

If you want, you can even imprison the original ancestor in your own home, as long as he doesn't go out and run around.

Chapter 187 Origin Authority of the Virtual Universe

"Chaos, I am still imprisoned here, so I will entrust the matter of Yunhe to you."

After watching Lu Yunhe and his fellow disciples exchange words briefly, the Primordial Ancestor gave them some instructions. After all, the Primordial Universe Will had only slightly relaxed its confinement of him, but still showed no intention of releasing him.

"Disciple understands, Master. Please rest assured, Chaos will take good care of Junior Brother."

The Lord of Chaos City said solemnly, "This junior brother is related to the possibility of whether the Primordial Ancestor can be released, so we must be extremely careful."

"Yes, I trust you with your work, Chaos." The Primordial Ancestor was generous with his praise.

Hearing the praise from the Primordial Ancestor, the Lord of Chaos City was also very happy. After all, the Primordial Ancestor was both a teacher and a father to him, and the relationship between the two was extremely deep.

"Yunhe, I told you before that I would give you a gift." After instructing the Chaos City Lord, the Primordial Ancestor looked at Lu Yunhe on the other side.

"The thing I am most proud of is this virtual universe in front of you, which I intend to hand over to you to control."

"Virtual universe, Master..."

Upon hearing the words of the Primordial Ancestor, Lu Yunhe was quite surprised. He had thought it was some kind of supreme treasure, but he never expected it to be the entire virtual universe.

It's important to understand that, in terms of value, the virtual universe is in no way inferior to some of the most powerful treasures.

Not to mention that the Primordial Ancestor spoke of control, not management. Just as the Lord of Chaos City sitting in the Initial Universe was merely assisting in management, the master of the Initial Universe was still the Primordial Ancestor.

"What merit do I, your disciple, possess to control the virtual universe? I beg you, Master, to rescind your order."

Lu Yunhe quickly refused, saying that with his mere World Lord level strength, he couldn't even get into the core management of the human race, let alone control the virtual universe.

"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to control the virtual universe right now. I will set restrictions on your control over the virtual universe, and you will only have full control when you are strong enough."

"Besides, this is just a transaction..."

At this point, the progenitor paused, as there were some crucial pieces of information he didn't want the two of them to know for the time being.

"Thank you Master!"

Since the progenitor had already said so much, Lu Yunhe didn't insist on refusing, since he wouldn't lose out anyway.

"Controlling a virtual universe is really exciting!"

Thinking of that incredibly exaggerated virtual universe network that covered the entire primordial universe, Lu Yunhe felt a surge of excitement.

After the original ancestor gave the two a few more instructions, the entire statue fell silent once more.

"It seems the time has come. Let's go, junior brother."

Looking at the statue that had returned to tranquility, the Lord of Chaos City spoke with reluctance, and then led Lu Yunhe away from the origin of this virtual universe.

"Junior brother!"

On the way, the Lord of Chaos City looked at Lu Yunhe beside him, hesitant to speak, and very much wanted to ask what exactly happened to the Primordial Ancestor.

However, once the Primordial Ancestor was involved, the Lord of Chaos City placed himself in a slightly lower position and forcefully suppressed his desire to investigate.

"Master is the hope of the entire human race. If possible, we must rescue Master."

The Lord of Chaos City said in a deep voice, "Whether for his own sake or for the future of the human race, the Primordial Ancestor is of paramount importance."
