Swallowing the Stars, Hu Yanbo's Pre-Godhood

Chapter 165 I want to make my part for the 'peace' of the Primal Star!

Several years later.

Deep within the endless starry sky, in the area where the 666th channel of the Primal Star is located.

In the past, this passage was always closed. This cosmic void was deathly silent, empty, and devoid of anything but tranquility.

However, with the approaching opening of the Primal Star, this region has completely changed.

One by one, figures exuding powerful auras, some as majestic as mountains and seas, others as eerie as shadows, floated in the void.

Most of them were strong humans and members of the Hong Alliance, including many renowned cosmic venerables, and even a few figures with exceptionally powerful auras, clearly at the level of cosmic overlords!

Everyone waited quietly.

Rumble—

Suddenly, the once absolutely calm void began to tremble violently!

An endless electromagnetic fluid storm erupted without warning, as if the energy of the entire universe had been forcibly seized and gathered at the center of this storm. The terrifying energy was frantically compressed and condensed, and its power was so overwhelming that even several cosmic overlords in the distance felt their hearts tremble. This had already surpassed the methods of ordinary cosmic lords!

At the very heart of the storm, a tiny point of light suddenly lit up, and then, as if at the dawn of the universe, it rapidly expanded into a massive vortex!

The vortex emitted endless, dazzling, and brilliant light, so bright that it made the surrounding starry sky pale in comparison.

"The passage has opened!" a powerful figure whispered.

"Although it's not the first time I've seen it, every time I witness it, I still find it incredibly spectacular, like a miracle."

"I wonder how many more cosmic lords will perish here with the opening of this primordial star!"

Although the passage had been revealed, the powerful members of the Hongmeng Alliance gathered there did not rush to act.

Instead, they allowed the dominant members of the tribe to enter first.

The higher-ranking venerables, however, live in groups of three or five.

As for those below the rank of High Venerable.

Exploring the Primordial Star is far too risky!

Let's take advantage of the fact that many high-level Venerables and even stronger beings have come to the Primordial Star, and then explore the secret realms of the universe that we dared not go to before!

Before long, the vortex at the center of the electromagnetic storm had completely stabilized, and its diameter had expanded to tens of billions of kilometers, like a magnificent rainbow bridge connecting the unknown world.

The spatial pressure emanating from the vortex passage alone is enough to crush any immortal god into nothingness!

The Primal Star Passage is officially open!

In the void some distance from the vortex passage, a majestic palace, dark red in color and with black flame patterns flowing across its surface, floats silently. It is the treasure of the advanced flying palaces—the Sirius Palace!

However, it's now renamed Vientiane Palace.

Hu Yanbo hid inside the Myriad Manifestations Palace, using his control over spacetime to observe the vortex passage that radiated terrifying power.

The Wanxiang Palace is of similar quality to the Xuantian Palace, which Huyanbo obtained from the first treasure site of the Ancestral God Sect in his early years. Since their functions overlap, Huyanbo has already contributed the Xuantian Palace to the clan's treasury in exchange for resources that are more useful to him, while keeping the Wanxiang Palace for his own use.

If you're not going to flaunt your spoils, are you going to exchange them for real money?

No, no!

Seeing that the passage was stable, Hu Yanbo had a thought, and the Myriad Manifestations Palace transformed into a dark red stream of light, shooting towards the magnificent passage.

"Whoosh!"

Upon entering the passage, the oppressive force from the primordial origin of the universe suddenly surged!

Despite the terrifying pressure, the Palace of Myriad Phenomena remained as stable as a rock, transforming into a streak of light and quickly disappearing into the depths of the passage.

At the same time, 10081 primordial star channels scattered throughout the primordial universe were opened one after another!

Like rivers flowing into the sea, or stars attending a banquet, the major forces comprised of billions of races in the universe—humans, demons, insects, machines, the Northern Frontier Alliance, the Starry Sky Beast Alliance—including powerful cosmic venerables, regional cosmic overlords, and even cosmic lords whose auras were as vast as the abyss, all rode various treasures or directly confronted the challenges with their divine bodies, rushing into the channels they had chosen.

A bloody massacre and a brutal struggle seem to be about to begin!

At the end of the dazzling vortex passage, a flash of light appeared, and a barely perceptible dark red stream of light shot out, then quickly converged, transforming into a ball of light that hovered in mid-air.

This is precisely the disguised form of the Palace of All Things.

After the light sphere stabilized, it flew a short distance away from the vortex exit and then stopped.

A figure clad in black armor stepped forward; it was Huyan Bo.

He stood in mid-air, his gaze sharp as lightning, slowly scanning his surroundings.

"This is the Primordial Star—" Hu Yanbo murmured to himself.

There are 10081 original stars, each of which is exactly the same size, with a diameter of about 100 billion kilometers!

This size doesn't seem particularly vast for a being capable of teleporting thousands of light-years at will.

But the spatial fluctuations of the original star seemed to be completely frozen and came to a standstill!

Teleportation is not possible here!

Unable to teleport to the Divine Kingdom!

Furthermore, there is an immense pressure that makes it take the strongest individuals far longer to accelerate to near the speed of light than it does outside!

Furthermore, any sudden turn, speed change, or technique change will be greatly delayed, making it significantly slower than in the outside world!

This ubiquitous super-pressure field —

"There's no escape!"

"Cannot teleport!"

"No wonder it's said that the first thousand eras after the Primordial Star was the one with the highest mortality rate among the universe's rulers in the Primordial Universe," Hu Yanbo said with a smile, sensing the unique environment.

"But now," Hu Yanbo changed the subject, casting his gaze upon the vast expanse of land below, "I hope that because of my existence, we can greatly reduce this heartbreaking death toll!"

Huyanbo stands tall in the sky, overlooking this ancient land below.

Below are rolling, majestic mountains and endless dense forests.

Those trees are thousands of miles tall, and they don't seem much different from the landscapes of some life-bearing planets in the outside universe. But only by standing here in person can you feel the terrifying pressure and stagnation that permeates every inch of space.

"Let's go find the token first!" Hu Yanbo thought to himself.

On the original planet, the emergence of treasures is not without warning.

Ordinary treasures are born quietly;

The appearance of some top-tier set treasures may cause a small-scale stir.

As for the emergence of a supreme treasure, it will definitely cause a huge commotion!

Furthermore, the larger the scale of the event, the higher the level of the treasure that is being revealed!

However, those truly precious and incomparably valuable top-tier treasures, even the pinnacle treasures that would drive the rulers of the universe mad, are not obtained through the conventional "birth" process.

They are like carefully preserved treasures, hidden in some extremely special treasure troves on the original star.

To unlock these treasure troves, you must collect the corresponding tokens.

Generally, treasures of the highest level require at least several tokens to open;

The treasures of the pinnacle require an even greater number of tokens.

Furthermore, the treasure buried in the treasure trove will only be truly opened once all the tokens have been collected.

These rules are ironclad laws summarized by the powerful beings of billions of races throughout countless eras in the universe.

But—this set of rules does not apply to Huyanbo!

He can use the "advance payment" system to skip the waiting process and directly "advance" those precious treasures hidden deep in the treasure land!

Of course, the price for repaying such advance payment is a token!

"Possessing the token itself represents having the 'opportunity' to unlock the treasure and obtain its most precious contents."

"The system simply transforms this originally uncertain, low-probability event (even if you collect all the tokens and open the treasure, you are not guaranteed to get the treasure, and there is even a 90% chance that you will not get it) into a certain and inevitable result."

"7

"Isn't this also a perfect example of reversing cause and effect?!" Hu Yanbo thought to himself with delight.

And this shouldn't be an illusion!

Huyanbo's eyes were sharp as he stared intently in a certain direction on the distant horizon.

In the darkness, he sensed that some kind of will was guiding him toward that place.

"boom!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Hu Yanbo instantly transformed into a streak of light that tore through solidified space, his speed skyrocketing!

The terrifying resistance on the original star was almost non-existent for his perfect genetic body, that of the cosmic lord.

In a short while, his speed had accelerated to near the speed of light, and he sped off toward the direction that was being guided in the dark.

"Is it a token?" Hu Yanbo's mind raced during the flight.

Even if Huyan Bo could control time and space, it would be impossible for him to discover what the treasure was before it even appeared!

"Originally, I was prepared to search for a specific token on these 10081 giant planets, relying on sheer luck or waiting for news."

"They even had long-term plans in mind, waiting for some powerful figure from the Hong Alliance or their clan to be lucky enough to authenticate the token, and then inquire through the Chaos City Lord to see if a transaction could be made..."

'

The number of powerful individuals in the human race, and even the entire Hong Alliance, is only a small fraction among the billions of races in the vast universe.

The appearance of the tokens was random, scattered across 10081 primordial stars.

The more powerful an organization is and the wider its reach, the higher the probability of obtaining the token and having its value appraised.

For a human alliance of this scale, if the powerful members of the alliance manage to obtain even a few decent tokens during the entire process of opening and closing a Primal Star, they're already considered quite lucky.

"If it really is a token!" Hu Yanbo thought to himself, sensing the incredibly clear guidance.

"I must make my humble contribution during this time on the Primordial Star to maintain the ecological stability of the powerful beings in the Primordial Universe."

Hu Yanbo moved with incredible speed, following that unseen sense, and quickly approached the target area.

"Hmm? Judging from the intensity of its special aura, it should be a set of powerful treasures."

"If it's a token, it should be a token of a top-tier treasure."

When a treasure from a hidden land appears, it will also cause a stir. The appearance of some precious treasures can even cause a stir comparable to the appearance of a supreme treasure.

"Buzz"

The aura of the treasure spread out, sweeping across a valley full of strange rocks.

"A treasure has been born!" Three Crystal Clan powerhouses, almost identical in height, their bodies forged from some kind of blue crystal, and with perfect yet cold appearances, looked up almost simultaneously, their eyes flashing with greed.

The leader quickly assessed the situation: "It's at least a top-tier set of powerful artifacts! We're nearby, let's get there quickly! We can't let anyone else get there first!"

Three beams of blue light shot into the sky and rushed towards the source of the aura.

"Haha! Lucky you!" A wild laugh echoed through the void from the edge of another swamp.

A ferocious beast, nearly a thousand kilometers tall at the shoulders, covered in thick black scales, with sharp feet and a gaping maw full of fangs, raised its massive head from the swamp, its scarlet eyes gazing in the direction from which the ripples were coming.

"I've just arrived on this planet and I've already found an appetizer! It's mine!" It dares to venture out alone, clearly a cosmic overlord-level being!

Its powerful hind legs slammed into the ground, and its massive body charged forward at a ferocious speed disproportionate to its size.

"There's treasure!"

"Quick! It's in the northeast!"

"Its aura is very strong; it might be a priceless treasure!"

In the surrounding area, there were five powerful teams from different races, some in groups of three or five, others in pairs. They all sensed this aura immediately and, like sharks smelling blood, used their respective methods to transform into streaks of light and rush towards the source of the aura at full speed.

Even further away, groups of alien cosmic venerables, though some distance away, but with keen senses, began to converge in this direction in twos and threes.

While Hu Yanbo was still flying high in the distance, a battle had already broken out near the cold pool in the area where the treasure was born!

"Roar! Get out of my way, all of you! This treasure is mine!"

A deafening roar resounded, and the alien cosmic overlord, whose head and shoulders were nearly ten kilometers tall and whose body was covered with black scales, had already rushed to the edge of the icy pool!

Without the slightest hesitation, it directly ignited its immense divine power, instantly engulfing its entire body in pitch-black flames. As the flames rose, they vaguely transformed into an even larger, more ferocious and tyrannical phantom of a beast god, radiating a chillingly malevolent aura!

"It's the Fallen Demon Lord!"

"Watch out! It's going all out!"

The other teams that arrived later were all shocked to see this, but with such a valuable treasure before them, none of them were willing to back down easily.

This top-tier treasure, whose aura is close to that of a supreme treasure, is worth the equivalent of thousands of ordinary treasures. It is enough for many Venerable-level experts to join forces and fight against a Hegemon-level expert!

"Let's join forces and defeat it first!"

In an instant, attacks of all shapes and sizes rained down on the black beast god phantom like a storm!

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

Terrifying explosions rang out one after another above the icy pool, the energy shockwaves shattering the surrounding rocks, collapsing ancient trees, and even seemingly evaporating the water of the pool.

The beast god phantom transformed from the fallen demon lord trembled violently under the siege, its scales and armor shattered. But it was indeed extremely ferocious. Relying on its powerful divine body at the overlord level and the burst of power from burning divine energy, it actually withstood the first wave of attacks. It even swung its giant claws and directly smashed the divine bodies of the two closest alien venerables, sending them flying backward!

"Hahaha! You ants dare to covet treasures? You're courting death!" The Fallen Demon Lord laughed wildly, fighting against many alone, and temporarily appeared majestic, blocking all forces outside the core area of ​​the Cold Pool.

In the distance, Hu Yanbo took in the chaotic battle and frowned slightly.

"Hmm? How dare you covet the treasures of the Lord of the Universe? You're courting death!"

Huyanbo was quite far away before, and only came here with guidance.

Meanwhile, many powerful individuals who were closer in distance had already arrived at this place.

But none of this will hinder Huyanbo in the slightest!
