Swallowing the Stars, Hu Yanbo's Pre-Godhood

Chapter 176 Why are all the strongest people so indecisive these days!

In the primordial universe, in a certain unknown starry sky.

Four towering figures are converging here in a way that transcends the limitations of time and space.

Their very existence causes the laws governing the universe around them to retreat.

A jet-black spherical phantom spoke first.

"I think I don't need to explain why I've summoned you all here."

"Not only did the assassination attempt on the Lord of All Things fail, but the Mountain-Sitting Guest actually joined the Hong Alliance and became its new leader!"

That's right, almost immediately. As soon as Zuo Shan Ke agreed, the founder of Giant Axe couldn't wait to convene a high-level meeting of the Hongmeng Alliance to announce Zuo Shan Ke's joining at the highest level.

The news spread rapidly through the Hongmeng's internal channels, and was then relayed back to their respective ethnic groups by spies from various races planted within the Hongmeng.

Therefore, the four towering figures gathered here at this moment—the Demon Ancestor of the Demon Race, the Demon Ancestor of the Earthquake, the Father God of the Mechanical Race, and the Queen of the Insect Race—received the devastating news of "failed assassination" and "the Hong Alliance's strength surging" almost simultaneously.

For them, this was like rubbing salt into a wound!

"Your Majesty, what exactly is going on? Have you found out the truth?" A cold voice, filled with barely suppressed anger, rang out.

The speaker was a giant, winding silver serpent that seemed capable of entangling the entire star field, with countless illusory serpent shadows dancing behind it.

Its vertical pupils flashed with a dangerous light: "What's the situation with the Mountain-Sitting Guest? And what's the situation with the Lord of All Things!"

The True Demon God and the Lord of the Primordial Island have truthfully recounted the incredible scene that occurred at that time.

They even demanded compensation for the mission's failure and the bizarre risks they encountered, but were naturally refused outright.

However, just listening to what happened at that time left the Dream Demon Ancestor and the others feeling completely bewildered and terrified.

Therefore, they sent the Zerg Queen, who had the best relationship with Zuo Shan Ke, to inquire about it, since Zuo Shan Ke had experienced more of this matter than Xu Zhen and the other two!

"I have personally questioned the Mountain Hermit," the beautiful, alluring figure said in a mesmerizing voice. "He kept repeating to me—we have ruined him terribly, ruined him terribly."

"He also warned me—never to provoke the Lord of All Things again."

Of course, the mountain dweller did not return the huge reward that had been agreed upon beforehand for the assassination of Huyanbo.

"Absolutely not?!" Dream Demon Ancestor, Zhen Demon Ancestor, and even the black spherical phantom mechanical father god exclaimed almost simultaneously.

The strongest being in the universe should not provoke the ruler of the universe. Listen to that, is that even language?

A brief silence fell over the scene.

After a long silence, the enormous, black, serrated-shelled beast said in a low voice, "So, according to the Mountain-Sitting Guest, we can only watch helplessly as this Lord of All Things" grows into the strongest being in the universe.

Its words struck the minds of the other three strongest individuals like a heavy hammer.

The four strongest individuals present no longer had the slightest doubt that Hu Yanbo could become the strongest in the universe.

After all, even before becoming the strongest, he was able to provoke the original will of the universe to personally intervene and protect him, frightening away Xu Zhen and Shi Hua, and even making someone like Zuo Shan Ke willing to submit to him and join the Hong Alliance.

If such a being cannot become the strongest, then who in this vast universe can?

"He is impossible to kill in the primordial universe. After this incident, no strongest being in the universe should be willing to attack him in the primordial universe," the pitch-black spherical phantom said coldly.

"Since that's the case, let's accept this reality."

"And if he doesn't need to go through too many battles and trials, he can naturally break through and become the strongest in the universe. He might even display the same strength that the original ancestor had back then, enough to dominate an entire era."

"At that time, we can unite again, just as we did in the past, and even unite all forces that can be united to fight against the human race."

"Even the Lord of All Things couldn't crush us."

"However, we are not idle during this waiting period. We can spread information about the uniqueness of the Lord of All Things and the extraordinary favor shown to him by the primordial cosmic will throughout the cosmic sea."

"In this cycle of time, we will always live within the primordial universe and enjoy its benefits. Therefore, we must be bound by its rules and have awe for its will."

"But what about those 'madmen' from the first era of reincarnation, nearing their end, who act without restraint?"

"And what about those lofty, self-proclaimed eternal 'two holy universes'?"

"The secrets of someone so favored by the primordial universe"—many people would be interested in these questions. The jet-black, spherical mechanical father god spoke at length, but each point was crucial.

The Dream Demon Ancestor's serpentine pupils suddenly contracted, the Demon Ancestor's shell emitted a slight friction sound, and the radiance around the Zerg Queen fluctuated slightly.

That's right. They are afraid of death, they have concerns, they have their clan to care about, and they have the prospect of reincarnation.

But in the vast ocean of the universe, there are many—desperate people who have nowhere to retreat and have no scruples.

It's impossible to say whether the opportunities gained through being favored by the original source of the universe are related to transcending reincarnation.

But—it's not like we have nothing to do with it?

No?

As long as there is even the slightest chance, as long as Hu Yanbo still needs to hone his skills to break through to become the strongest in the universe, it would be enough to make those old guys facing their end swarm like hyenas smelling blood.

Want to hone your skills in the primordial universe?

Look at the other powerful figures; they all just give way when they see Huyan Bo!

Everyone knows that Huyanbo lacks tempering skills, yet they still go and help him temper them. The strong people of the primordial universe would not do that.

"So, this is the legacy of an ancient civilization?" In a palace in a special dimension of the virtual universe.

The founder of the giant axe looked at the blue crystal in his hand, which was flowing with a hazy halo, and then looked up at the smiling mountain dweller opposite him, as well as the calm-looking Hu Yanbo beside him. His face was full of undisguised astonishment, and even a little dazed.

What's the current situation with the Human race?

Surprises kept coming one after another, and each one was more outrageous than the last.

The mountain dweller who somehow "entered" the Hongmeng hadn't even finished digesting the information when he received a legacy of an ancient civilization from him.

An ancient tradition!

In the long run, it may even be more precious than the most powerful treasures.

This is a systematic path and a treasure trove of knowledge that allows more powerful individuals within the entire race to reach higher levels of life and greater power!

It should be noted that the renowned Divine Eye Clan in the Cosmic Sea is so powerful that it possesses seven of the strongest beings in the universe, and its strength alone can rival that of the Holy Land.

Isn't it simply because they were fortunate enough to have obtained a relatively complete copy of an ancient civilization's legacy?!

If the human race could also have seven strongest individuals—Giant Axe simply dared not even think about it.

At that time, why would the human race need to scheme and fight against the demon race, the insect race, and the machine race in the core territory of the primitive universe?

"Yes, this is an ancient civilization inheritance that I obtained by chance," the Mountain Guest said with a smile.

"It contains a relatively systematic guide on how to become an immortal god, how to break through to become the strongest being in the universe, and even some other inherited information."

"Today, for the sake of the Lord of All Things, I will bestow it upon the human race. As for whether to share it with other races of the Hong Alliance, that is up to you, Giant Axe."

For the Mountain Dweller, who once ruled a kingdom, compiling such an ancient legacy from the Void God was effortless.

So, after becoming the leader of the Hongmeng Alliance and attending the Hongmeng victory celebration, Zuoshanke handed him over to Huyanbo.

And now he is discussing this matter with the founder of Giant Axe.

"Oh! Oh!" The founder of the giant axe responded subconsciously, his voice trembling slightly.

"Look, for the sake of Wanxiang!" Giant Axe unconsciously repeated the words of the Mountain-Sitting Guest, his gaze slowly shifting from the blue crystal in his hand to the calm, even slightly gentle, face of Huyan Bo beside him.

Yes, why are there one surprise after another for the human race? It's all because of Huyan Bo!

Otherwise, why would it be because of his giant axe?

Hu Yanbo smiled, waved his hand modestly, and replied, "This is all thanks to Senior Zuo Shan Ke's kindness. Giant Axe, you don't need to think too much about it."

.

"Furthermore, without the tireless efforts of you, the founder of the Giant Axe, the Lord of Chaos City, my teacher, the Lord of Desolate Mirror, and other predecessors, who laid this vast foundation and sheltered us, their descendants, even with some fortuitous opportunities, I would be like a rootless duckweed, and where would I be today?"

Hu Yanbo's tone was sincere, but his words left Ju Fu deeply moved.

Wanxiang is not only exceptionally talented and blessed with great opportunities, but more importantly, he is calm, knows when to advance and retreat, is grateful, and is neither arrogant nor impatient. It is truly a great blessing for the human race to have him!

"I have roughly reviewed the contents of this inheritance. With it, the strength of the upper echelons of our human race can be raised to a new level," Hu Yanbo continued.

He definitely read about Huyanbo's teachings; not only did he read them, he even learned them!

For example, the first level of the "Divine Power Burning Secret Technique" has been fully repaid.

At this moment, with his full power unleashed, his combat strength had already reached the peak of the fifth rank.

As for why not learn the second level of the "Divine Power Burning Secret Technique" as well?

Wouldn't that allow him to advance his strength even further, directly becoming comparable to a sixth-tier cultivator?

That's because they can't learn it!

However, it's not that the system is faulty, it's that "Huyan Boren" is faulty!

The system is quite powerful; the second tier is definitely eligible for loans.

The problem is, I can't use the second level of the "Divine Power Burning Secret Technique"!

This "Divine Power Burning Secret Technique" can cause the divine body or all the energy of the physical body to explode rapidly in a short period of time!

Similar to self-destruction, but if you want to control power comparable to the intensity of self-destruction, the precision required for energy manipulation becomes higher and higher as you progress.

To achieve such precision in control, one needs a strong will and determination.

The first level can be controlled by the will of a cosmic master.

The second level requires the will of a true god.

This is easy to understand. It's like giving you a supercar with off-the-charts performance and a welded-on accelerator (second level of divine power burning), but only giving you a bicycle braking system (the will of the Lord of the Universe).

When you step on the gas, the speed instantly increases, which is exhilarating, but what if you want to slow down? Turn? Stop?

I'm sorry, the brakes failed and the steering wheel locked, resulting in a fatal crash that was beyond repair.

Currently, Hu Yanbo's willpower and consciousness are only at the peak of the Universe Lord level, so even after being forcibly pre-borrowed, he can only look at it but not use it.

"As for pre-borrowing the will of a true god—" Hu Yanbo silently pondered, recalling the repayment price the system had to pay for pre-borrowing the will of a true god.

"You can't rush it. You have to eat one bite at a time, and walk one step at a time."

Hu Yanbo spoke and thought simultaneously, while on the other side, after taking the blue crystal, the giant axe quickly penetrated its contents with his consciousness, scanning some of its contents.

"If only I could have obtained this inheritance sooner!"

He remained silent for a moment, but finally couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

According to the inherited content, in ancient civilizations, for those who aspired to become higher and stronger cosmic masters...

The moment one breaks through to become the strongest being in the universe and constructs their own miniature universe, the construction method, architectural model, and so on they choose are not arbitrary.

Instead, it involves an extremely rigorous and profound set of knowledge that directly relates to one's potential and the possible upper limit of growth!

"Fortunately, I had the guidance of the Primordial Ancestor back then; otherwise, if I had relied entirely on my own intuition to build a small universe out of ignorance, I'm afraid my path would have been cut off," the Giant Axe Founder added slowly.

At this moment, seeing the systematic exposition of diverse and clear small-scale cosmological architecture models in the inheritance, and comparing it with his own journey of groping forward and stumbling in the dark to build it, Giant Axe couldn't help but feel a little regret for himself.

But more than anything, there was a sense of awe and admiration for the original ancestor.

Hu Yanbo's rise to power was so extraordinary and inconceivable, but it was probably related to the original will of the universe.

The giant axe was now clear as well.

But what about the original ancestor?

The progenitor rose to power when the human race was still in its infancy, and the primordial cosmic will did not favor him as much as Huyan Bo did.

He rose from humble beginnings at the very beginning of a new era entirely through his own talent, sweeping aside his contemporaries and overwhelming all races.

He brought the human race from the brink of extinction to the Well of the Primordial Universe, and even reached the ultimate level of "the strongest in the universe"!

And his own miniature universe, according to the standards of inheritance given by the Mountain Hermit, has already reached the passing mark.

The miniature universe that the progenitor himself created would only be more terrifying.

With a thought racing through his mind, the founder of the giant axe suppressed his turbulent thoughts, looked at Huyan Bo, and said, "Wanxiang, I want to convene a top-level meeting!"

"I've taken a look; the 'Savage Combination Attack Secret Technique' recorded in the inheritance is of questionable value!"

His eyes gleamed with excitement: "If multiple third-tier Universe Lords were to use this Divine Burning Secret Technique and Combined Attack Secret Technique simultaneously, it could unleash an attack power no less than that of a fifth-tier Universe Lord!"

"If Chaos and the others possessed the Burning Secret Technique, they could rival the True God Zhan Bing in the Primordial Universe."

The strongest beings in the universe were at the level of true gods in ancient civilizations, as the giant axe learned from this blue crystal.

"Giant Axe, you are the strongest and leader of the tribe. Now that the inheritance crystal is in your hands, how to use it is naturally up to you," Huyan Bo said with a smile.

It's really strange. These days, even the strongest people seem to have lost their own opinions and are all asking me what the master of the universe is supposed to do!

Upon hearing Hu Yanbo's words, the founder of the giant axe was slightly taken aback at first, then a look of realization dawned on his face, and he patted his broad forehead: "Oh, right, right!"

So many unbelievable things have happened lately that my mind is a bit overwhelmed. I almost forgot that I, Giant Axe, am still the leader of the tribe!

"Then I'll convene a top-level meeting immediately, and you should attend as well!"
