Devouring the Star: Age of Cataclysm

primordial universe.

Just as Lin Ye was methodically carrying out the first assessment from His Highness Jiang Li in the Thousand Tribulations Pagoda.

The counterattack from the human race against the five top races has spread the war across most of the primitive universe.

This time, the counterattack was fought by the founder of the Great Axe who had already escaped, and led more than 20 human universe lord-level powerhouses to sweep towards the territories that the five top clans were good at connecting to the original domain.

As for the core of their tribe... in order to avoid serious loss of high-end combat power, they will be let go.

However, despite this, the counterattack team led by the founder of the Great Axe still made great gains and let out a sigh of relief.

After this battle, the five top ethnic groups and some other races had their morale severely crushed.

In addition, the human race gained a lot.

The extraterritorial battlefields originally shared by the four top ethnic groups were all assigned to the human ethnic group and became its subordinate territories, and were assigned to several powerful cosmic rulers.

As for the new battlefield outside the domain... it continued to extend outward... and finally opened up a new battlefield.

Despite this, it takes too long to open up a new overseas battlefield.

And it will take a lot of time and energy from several top clans to successfully develop it.

But Lin Ye doesn't need to worry about all this.

The only thing he had to do now was to try his best to improve his strength so that he could have sufficient guarantee for the exploration of the cosmic sea in the near future.

After all, he had promised the Hermit and the Ancestor of the Star Beasts, so of course he had to find a way to do it.

……

In the Thousand Tribulations Pagoda.

Lin Ye used his secret technique to withstand the dark and deep hurricane and the falling star fragments.

His divine power surged like a demon from outer space, and every time he made a move, it brought great intimidation to the entire space.

"Even if I try to bear it, it's still easy."

Lin Ye felt slightly relieved and immediately increased his divine power output.

The terrifying sword light that was powerful enough to tear apart the heaven and earth was like a tide, killing in all directions and sweeping away all incoming attacks.

“Buzz buzz~~~”

As if provoked by Lin Ye, deep, shocking and terrifying hurricanes quickly condensed around this space.

Above the sky, deep red streaks of light streaked across.

The sky turned red.

But not completely red.

The color mixed with a rich red rhythm was like pouring a bowl of dark red into the snow water.

The entire sky was filled with the brutality, desolation, and grief before the collapse and destruction...

Lin Ye, who was at the center of the vortex, looked up at the trial space that seemed to be gathering momentum, and a gleam of excitement flashed across his eyes.

"Maybe... this isn't going to work. I need to try a new tactic."

Next, Lin Ye took a deep breath, and an extremely powerful force began to surge in his body. In the blink of an eye, a huge divine body that was thousands of miles tall was formed.

The face of the deity, whose facial features were exactly the same as Lin Ye's, showed neither sadness nor joy, as if he were an ancient deity.

"Let the attack...come even more fiercely!"

The next moment, an infinitely dazzling platinum-colored light suddenly burst out from this majestic and vast divine body. This dazzling light shot up into the sky, directly tearing apart the dark hurricane, shattering the red meteors, and piercing straight into the sky.

From a distance, it looks like a transparent pillar supporting the heaven and earth.

If a strong person were here, he would definitely find that this transparent pillar is actually an arm.

"Such a terrifying divine power..."

Lin Ye felt the terrifying energy contained in the body of the God of Destruction. Even one of his hands possessed divine power far beyond that of an ordinary lord of the universe.

"If the Lord of the Heavenly Wolf were here, he would probably not be able to withstand it for a while. This is indeed a secret technique from the Hunyuan Secret Canon. It is much stronger than the other secret techniques I have practiced..."

Lord of the Sirius: "...Listen to me and thank you!"

Similarly, Lin Ye was also very clear in his mind.

This secret technique of his was just a very common combination of secret techniques in the Hunyuan Secret Book.

If he could successfully practice the complete combination of secret techniques, he believed that he could easily cripple the strongest person in the universe.

However, the divine power consumed in performing that secret technique was too terrifying. Without the divine power support of the Thousand Tribulations Pagoda, it would be impossible for him to perform it completely.

……

“It is indeed the secret method to destroy the divine body!”

When Lin Ye finally passed the test, His Highness Jiang Li looked at him carefully and asked, "It seems that this secret method is very suitable for you!"

“Yes!” Hearing this, Lin Ye nodded gently: “But the secret method of destroying the divine body is too powerful, and it is too difficult to practice. So far, I have only mastered the Destroying Divine Arm!”

"Not bad, I was able to master one of these moves in such a short time."

His Highness Jiang Li said softly: "Besides, you have mastered these secret techniques at such a young age, which shows that you have a good understanding. No wonder you can easily complete those tasks and get rewards."

"Your current strength is several levels away from your realm, so you can't judge it with common sense."

"..." Lin Ye did not speak, but just asked: "However, after the recent series of wars, I obviously found that my strength is still too far behind, and it is not suitable for the current rapid development."

"You are lacking in strength!?" His Highness Jiang Li looked at him and asked, "As long as you don't leave this primitive universe, it is only a matter of time before you can quietly cultivate to the level of the Lord of the Universe."

"I'm very lacking in strength." Lin Ye nodded gently and said, "I'm going to go to the Universe Ocean to train and take a look at how terrifying the three Jedi that so many powerful people are afraid of are."

"Three Jedi? With your current strength!" His Highness Jiang Li smiled, "If you want to enter the three Jedi with your current strength, you can only take risks on the periphery. There is no way to go deep into them."

"To put it simply, without these powerful treasures, your strength is at most equivalent to three to five Chaos City Lords." His Highness Jiang Li shook his head and said, "But your own treasures and luck are also part of your strength, aren't they?"

"Yeah." Lin Ye blinked and nodded in response.

"So I decided to improve my strength here, and then enter the three great Jedi to compete with those overlords of the universe."

"That's not bad, but the overlords of the universe are just self-proclaimed. They are not decent at all."

“Despite this, their strength is still much stronger than your current one, unless... you can cultivate the combined secret technique of destroying the divine body, which will allow all your divine bodies and powers to be enhanced to the extreme.” “What about the life gene level!?” Lin Ye asked with some doubt.

"Of course!" His Highness Jiang Li glanced at him and continued, "Since your divine body and divine power have been tempered and strengthened, the level of your life genes will naturally be raised to the extreme."

"You don't need to worry too much about this. This is a necessary reward for being the inheritor of the Thousand Tribulations Pagoda. The level of your life gene will automatically rise to perfection as your realm improves."

"besides……"

Just like that, His Highness Jiang Li spoke eloquently about many things concerning the divine body, divine power, and the genetic level of life.

The latter also listened very carefully, almost without missing any useful information, and stored it all in his mind.
"..."

After a long time, Lin Ye opened his eyes as if he suddenly realized something, and rays of light flashed across his eyes like a bolt from the blue.

"Huh~ It's really amazing. If it weren't for what His Majesty Jiang Li told me, I would definitely not know so many things."

He let out a long breath and suddenly felt that the direction of the future became much clearer.

"What you know now is only one ten-millionth of what I can tell you. I will need to wait for a stable period of time before I can tell you more, so don't be anxious."

His Highness Jiang Li looked at Lin Ye and spoke word by word.

"Well, this information is enough for me to digest for a long time. If it's inconvenient, we can talk about it later." Lin Ye nodded, showing that he understood.

“Now I want to wait until I successfully cultivate the “Divine Body of Destruction” and then go to the Universe Ocean. This way, the chances of entering the three forbidden areas and obtaining treasures will be much higher.” Lin Ye said.

"If you can cultivate the 'Divine Body of Destruction', regardless of whether you are promoted to Lord of the Universe or not, your combat power will definitely catch up with the first echelon of the Universe Sea."

The red-haired girl Jiang Li shook her head slightly: "However, if you want to successfully practice the combined secret technique of "Destruction Divine Body", it is much more difficult than practicing just one of them."

After a pause, she continued:
"It is extremely difficult for you to fully cultivate successfully, and we don't know how long it will take."

Hearing this, Lin Ye couldn't help but reveal a thoughtful expression.

After a moment's silence, he asked, "I heard that this Thousand Tribulations Pagoda has a training room that can control the flow of time. Can it make time stand still?"

"The speed of time can be controlled in the training room. The absolute stillness of time you mentioned can certainly be achieved in the Thousand Tribulations Pagoda, but..."

Lin Ye: “But what!?”

His Highness Jiang Li glanced at him and said, "But the energy required is too huge, and your current authority is not enough to support it... In short, don't even think about it."

His Highness Jiang Li took a deep look at Lin Ye and said calmly, "Although the law of time can be comprehended to the extreme, its application in practice is another matter. The differential flow of time does not require a little bit of energy."

"..." After hearing these words, some of Lin Ye's guesses were shattered.

"Then Your Highness Jiang Li, with my authority, at most, how many times can I accelerate time? "

Lin Ye asked curiously, but in fact, he was prepared that the ten times time acceleration was enough.

"With your current status and authority, you can accelerate time fifty times in the cultivation world of the Thousand Tribulations Pagoda."

After thinking seriously for a long time, His Highness Jiang Li finally answered Lin Ye's question.

"Fifty times?... Although it's not very fast, it's probably enough for me right now."

Thinking about the upcoming journey to the cosmic sea, Lin Ye couldn't wait to practice those combined secret techniques and improve his strength as quickly as possible.

After all, the cosmic sea is different from other places. It is extremely mysterious and full of dangers. If you are not careful, you may become a stepping stone for other powerful people.

Such a result...is something Lin Ye cannot accept at all.

"Let's go. I want to enter the training room now." Lin Ye said sparingly, "The training room is over there. Just go over there." His Highness Jiang Li pointed to another building not far away.

……

"Is this the training room of the Thousand Tribulations Pagoda? It feels very unusual."

On the vast crimson land.

Lin Ye felt that he had walked directly from the previous space to the back of the door. He asked with some emotion: "Your Highness, what is the speed of time flow here!?"

Obviously, although there is no fluctuation of the law of time here, Lin Ye can still feel a strange breath.

In addition, the density of divine power here is extremely high, which makes him feel refreshed and very clear-headed.

"The flow of time here is about thirty times faster, which means that one month here is equal to one day in the outside world." The red-haired girl stepped on the crimson ground and spoke without turning her head.

"Thirty times the speed of time... can it be accelerated further?!"

Lin Ye was secretly shocked, and soon he felt dissatisfied with the flow rate, which was obviously too slow.

"Of course."

"However, with your current realm and authority, I can only increase it to fifty times at most, no more than that."

Lin Ye nodded slightly and thanked: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Then, he did not waste any time.

Then he sat down cross-legged on this endless crimson land.

His consciousness quickly immersed himself and entered into the state of cultivation of the "Divine Body of Destruction".

Before leaving the original universe, he had to obtain the other two types of the "Destruction of Divine Body" combination of secret techniques - Star Burial Bones and Cosmic Skin.

"Fifty times the flow rate, just right for trying out this Star Burial Bone. According to the time it takes to practice one secret technique in 100,000 years, it will take at most 200,000 years to practice these two secret techniques. It's just that the final fusion part will take quite a bit of time."

Lin Ye An An thought: "After mastering this secret technique, I will be able to integrate the body of destruction into myself and realize its normalized power flash. At that time, even if it does not explode, it can greatly improve its combat power."

Thinking of this, Lin Ye couldn't help but frown.

Without him.

Even with the normalized body of destruction, the amount of divine power consumed is an extremely terrifying amount, so one has to break through to become the master of the universe.

Moreover, the Destruction Divine Body is like a real living being, and it takes a long time to integrate into one's own Divine Body.

Without enough time accumulation, it is impossible to achieve that.

"Don't think too much. Just take it one step at a time. When you reach the mountain, there will always be a way. When you reach the bridge, you will find a way out."

“It will always succeed!!”

Lin Ye didn't think too much about things that might distract him and began to concentrate on his practice.
