Swallowed Star: Wish Fulfillment System

"Boom!"

The combined battle formation of over three hundred progenitors was terrifying. Even with Yuan's formation perfectly commanding all the power, the lord's side was still instantly at a disadvantage.

"not good!"

"The combined power of over three hundred ancestors is terrifying. We can probably only stall until Xiao Yu escapes," Xingmang transmitted.

He could see the future timeline, so he naturally knew that Xiao Yu would be able to escape soon.

Inside the enormous snake's belly, Xiao Yu was fending off the omnipresent attacks, his body being squeezed by the ever-present pressure, and his body surface was constantly exploding under terrifying rays of light.

While observing the situation outside.

Although the pressure inside the snake's belly was terrifying, it still couldn't seriously injure him.

"If you want to trap me, you'll have to see how tough your body is."

Seeing that the situation outside was unfavorable to the cultivation camp, Xiao Yu no longer held back and raised the Shattering Realm Blade in his hand with all his might. Terrifying energy surged into the Shattering Realm Blade, and the power emanating from it became even more terrifying.

The power emanating from the Shattering Blade itself formed a terrifying domain. All the terrifying attacks from the snake's belly had to break through the domain before they could land on Xiao Yu's defenses.

"kill!"

With a single slash, the blade shone from the inside out, cleaving the Infinite Serpent Ancestor in two.

The Heavenly Fire Ancestor only felt a blade of light appear on the belly of the Infinite Serpent Ancestor, and then this blade of light instantly expanded countless times, eventually engulfing the Infinite Serpent Ancestor.

In an instant, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor's body was completely annihilated, even his life core was shattered, and his origin was instantly cut off by 99%.

After the Infinite Serpent Ancestor's body was annihilated, Xiao Yu, having escaped, transformed into a rainbow of light and landed among the lords' camp.

However, although the Infinite Serpent Ancestor's body was annihilated, it absorbed the omnipresent life energy in the battle formation of the progenitors and quickly restored its original essence. But even if it restored quickly, it could only restore three or four tenths of its original essence in a single breath.

"kill!"

Xiao Yu, who had landed in the Lord's battle formation, looked at the Ancestral Camp in the distance, raised the Shattering Realm Blade high in his hand, and then slashed down in an instant.

"call!"

A beam of light capable of cleaving the entire Hengyuan Heavenly Realm covered the spacetime range where the progenitors were located. The vast beam of light pierced through all obstacles and enveloped all the progenitors.

Naturally, it also enveloped the Infinite Serpent Ancestor. His already diminished essence was reduced to its lowest point again under the immense power of the sword light, and this time it was directly annihilated.

Ninety-nine percent of his original essence was instantly destroyed, leaving less than one in a billion.

"Not good! The Infinite Serpent Ancestor has fallen into a state of annihilation." The Heavenly Fire Ancestor hurriedly transmitted his voice to his companions, "This time, I'm afraid it won't be able to recover for a million epochs."

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor has fallen into a state of annihilation, where all his power has been annihilated, and it will be very slow for him to recover.

"This time, it's not just the Infinite Serpent Ancestor who has perished, but also twenty-eight other progenitors who have died completely," Wu Hai transmitted to his fellow progenitors.

The vast sword light not only enveloped the Infinite Serpent Ancestor, but also each and every Primordial Ancestor. Targeting their weaknesses, once the sword light tore through their defenses, the surrounding vast sword light instantly converged and attacked a single point.

One of the ancestors was struck by the vast blade of light. It was the Wind Devouring Ancestor. The moment the blade struck, terrifying power erupted. This Wind Devouring Ancestor split into billions of winds. These billions of winds scattered and fled. As long as one wind escaped, he could survive.

However, the vast blade of light seemed to track itself, allowing billions of winds to escape into layers of space and time, fleeing in all directions, and even hiding within the bodies of its companions who were good at preserving their lives.

However, the billions of winds could not last even a moment before being crushed and annihilated by the vast blade light. In the end, even their hidden life cores were shattered, and they died completely.

The Devouring Wind Ancestor was just one of the twenty-eight Ancestors. Among the other Ancestors, some transformed into countless bolts of lightning, roaming endless space and time; others, skilled in the art of the void, merged into the void itself…

Without exception, all twenty-eight progenitors suffered shattered life cores and perished completely. Their corpses were then collected by the omnipresent forces of spacetime.

The life energy surrounding them could not save their lives.

"We can't trap them, and we certainly can't kill them!"

“Xiao Yu’s killing move is too powerful, and it doesn’t seem like the kind of move that consumes too much energy, so he can use it one after another.” Ice Peak Ancestor transmitted his voice, “Every time he makes a move, he can kill a large number of ancestors. We simply cannot afford such losses.”

Xiao Yu's repeated massacres were something no force could withstand.

When Xiao Yu made his first move, they might have been hoping for the best, since at that time they believed they still had a killer move up their sleeve. Besides, no one could guarantee that Xiao Yu could keep using his killer move.

When Xiao Yu made his second move, the ancestors had no choice but to recognize this fact.

Even if all the progenitors joined forces, they could not stop Xiao Yu's slaughter.

Xiao Yu only made two moves, and sixty of the progenitors have already perished, and one eternal ancestral god has also vanished, and it will take a long time for them to recover.

If the war continues, the number of dead progenitors will only increase, and more eternal ancestral gods will perish.

Although the Eternal Ancestral Gods do not die completely, they will fall into a state of annihilation due to the excessive amount of their annihilated origin. If the state of annihilation is too deep, it will be difficult for them to even preserve their consciousness, and in that case, the recovery process will be much longer.

“As long as Xiao Yu makes a move, we will suffer losses. As the weak among us, those who are not good at defense, and those whose bodies are not large enough fall first, as the battle continues, one by one the top ancestors will also fall.” Ancestor Tianhuo transmitted his voice, “If the battle continues, perhaps this time, all the ancestors who came with us will perish, and we may also fall into annihilation like Wuxian.”

The Celestial Ancestor of Heavenly Fire would not allow the Primordial Chaos faction to perish.

“There is no hope,” said the Ice Peak Ancestor. “Even if the other eight lords are severely injured, as long as Xiao Yu exists, we will only be defeated.”

All sixteen eternal ancestral gods understood this, as did the surviving progenitors.

Xiao Yu is the key to this battle.

But this crucial point was far beyond their capabilities, existing on a completely different level, and they had no way to deal with it. They had given up on trying again.

The remaining 284 progenitors suddenly retreated, completely withdrawing their power, with the sixteen eternal ancestral gods of the innate chaotic origin camp and the ice peak camp at the forefront.

The nine lords also temporarily withdrew their power.

The two sides ceased hostilities. This scene was witnessed from afar by the progenitors of various factions, and they all felt a sense of melancholy.

"In this battle, the combined forces of the Natural Chaos faction and the Ice Peak faction actually lost!"

"Even when the two top powers joined forces and mobilized a total of 344 progenitors, they still lost, and 60 progenitors perished. It seems that no power can match the cultivation camp anymore."

Various factions are discussing the matter extensively.

This war established the cultivation faction's voice in the Hengyuan Heavenly Realm.

From now on, within the Hengyuan Heavenly Realm, this Hunyuan Space belonging to the Eternal Land will be the most important place for cultivation factions, and no force will dare to defy its power.

"The cultivation faction has become the most powerful force under the Eternal Land."

"With one entity dominating, I wonder what the Eternal Land will do?"

"Given the nature of the Eternal Land, they would not interfere in this level of struggle. Only the opportunity near the Great Annihilation is worth fighting for by the Eternal Land."

Within the Eternal Origin Heaven Realm, ancient beings from the Black King's Shadow and the Origin God Ancestral Sect are also watching the struggle within the Eternal Land. They are focused on this region because of one person: Lord Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu can be said to be the strongest being in this cycle of annihilation and reincarnation.

If the Eternal Tree hadn't already been watching him, it's likely that not only would the God of Destruction be vying for him, but there would also be beings within the Source God Ancestral Cult vying for his ownership.

Such a prodigious genius is rare for any force that spans multiple Chaos Origin Spaces; acquiring one would be considered a valuable asset.

Within the Eternal Land, several temple lords were also watching this battle closely.

In the Eternal Land, a secluded place, around a round table gleaming with purple-gold light, sat figures exuding terrifying auras, seated on thrones.

These towering figures, each exuding an aura as terrifying as an abyss.

The imposing figure seated at the head of the table had spacetime distorted around him. Spacetime that was normally difficult for even a lord to perceive was manifested around him as if it were real, and was even distorted into worlds.

The endless world formed a long river that encircled its body.

This great being is none other than the Lord of the Time and Space Palace.

"This Lord Xiao Yu has already been designated by the Eternal Tree as a potential seed member to be recommended to the Eternal Academy in this era of annihilation," said the Lord of the Time and Space Palace. "He has already completed the first test set by the Eternal Tree. He only needs to complete two more tests to become a true seed member."

"Have you completed the first test?" A similarly imposing figure stood beside him, his form resembling a human, but in the eyes of the Time and Space Palace Master, he seemed like an eternal, indestructible, and endlessly vast star.

This star seemed to be the beginning of all primordial space, radiating an incomparably terrifying heat. The energy it contained was vast, making the entire Hengyuan Heaven Realm seem like an ant before it.

"Star, you've gone even further on the Path of the Primordial Stars," the Lord of Time and Space praised.

There are multiple paths to advancing from the sixth step to the seventh step of the Eternal Ancestral God cultivation.

The first path is to use spacetime as a guide, drawing upon a wisp of the power of the River of Time to reflect upon oneself, leaving an imprint on the origin of the River of Time, thereby continuously comprehending the River of Time and breaking through to the eighth step of the Eternal Ancestral God, or even the ninth step of the Eternal Ancestral God.

The second path is to comprehend the 'Primordial Star,' a massive star at the end of the River of Time. By comprehending even a wisp of the Dao of the Stars, one can become a Seven-Step Eternal Ancestral God. If one continues to comprehend and can comprehend the Primordial Star to form a complete Dao of the Stars, one can become an Eight-Step Eternal Ancestral God. One can continue to comprehend the Primordial Star and may eventually become a Nine-Step Eternal Ancestral God.

The third path is to delve into a particular Hunyuan Dao, continuously studying and comprehending it to understand as much of the Hunyuan Dao as possible. In this way, one may achieve the Seven-Step Eternal Ancestral God status. Continuing to study in depth may also lead to the Eight-Step Eternal Ancestral God status.

The God of Destruction achieved the seventh step of Eternal Ancestral Godhood through the Dao of Destruction. Moreover, he continued to comprehend nothingness, attempting to integrate the mysteries of nothingness into the Dao of Destruction, thereby breaking the shackles of the eighth step of Eternal Ancestral Godhood.

The fourth path, which is also the most difficult of all, is to comprehend the nothingness surrounding the endless primordial space, to enter the Dao through nothingness, to refine oneself, to transform into the Great Dao of Nothingness, to first achieve the seventh step of Eternal Ancestral God, and then to transform nothingness into something, to break through to the eighth or ninth step of Eternal Ancestral God.

There are four paths, only varying in the difficulty of understanding them, not in terms of superiority or inferiority.

"I've made some progress." The Star Palace Master laughed heartily. He had spent a long time in seclusion to comprehend the Primordial Star. Now that he had achieved some progress, he was one step closer to becoming an Eighth Step Eternal Ancestral God. How could he not be happy?

These Seven-Step Eternal Ancestral Gods, stationed in this remote region, didn't reap much reward or have many tasks; their main focus was on meditation and cultivation.

They usually only get quite busy when they're close to the Great Extinction.

"Congratulations, Palace Master, on mastering your divine skill!"

"Congratulations, Palace Master!"

Below, a group of imposing figures hurriedly offered their respectful congratulations.

Although they were both temple masters, their statuses were worlds apart.

The Time and Space Palace Master and the Star Palace Master are both at the seventh-step Eternal Ancestral God level, while they are only at the sixth-step Eternal Ancestral God level.

Although the difference between a sixth-step Eternal Ancestral God and a seventh-step Eternal Ancestral God may seem to be only one step, their strengths are worlds apart. Facing a seventh-step Eternal Ancestral God, even billions of sixth-step Eternal Ancestral Gods are like ants, easily crushed with a single stomp.

The gap between an eight-step Eternal Ancestral God and a seven-step Eternal Ancestral God is an immeasurable chasm.

The Lord of the Star Palace nodded casually, then looked at the Lord of the Time and Space Palace who was at the head of the group.

“You’ve been in seclusion and haven’t paid attention to what’s happening in the Eternal Land,” the Lord of Time and Space said with a smile. “The Eternal Divine Fruit quest issued by the Eternal Divine Tree was the first test.”

"A lot has happened recently. One after another, the Chaos Origin Spaces have been destroyed, and there have been many disputes. Our Eternal Academy has also obtained another 30,000 'Void Crystals,' which is a truly good harvest." The Star Palace Master looked up at the void, where there was an endless and magnificent star that emitted endless light.

As the Lord of the Star Palace gazed at the stars and received the vast information carried within the endless light, this boundless information was transmitted through the light, and even the void outside the Hengyuan Heavenly Realm could not obstruct it.

These messages contain everything that has happened in the long years of the Endless Chaos Space, and naturally also include some of the gains of the Eternal Academy.

The Crystal of Nothingness is one of the rarest treasures in the entire river of time. It contains endless creative vitality and is the most essential core of a primordial space.

Although named 'Crystal of Nothingness', it is the ultimate 'existence'. It is the most precious cultivation resource for achieving the Eighth Step Eternal Ancestral God by entering the Dao through 'nothingness'. Comprehending the Crystal of Nothingness may lead to comprehending the transformation of nothingness into existence.

The Void Crystal was the most precious resource during the Great Cataclysm of the Chaos Origin Space. The destruction of a single Chaos Origin Space could give birth to several Void Crystals.

After about a breath, the Star Palace Master finished digesting all the information and then said with a smile, "Xiao Yu completed the first test very well. Moreover, his achievement of reaching the limit of the third step of the Eternal Ancestral God in less than a million epochs can be considered as meeting the threshold for early recruitment."
