Swallowing the Stars, Hu Yanbo's Pre-Godhood

Chapter 181 You know—the protagonist always makes his appearance last!

As the saying goes, seeing is believing.

No matter how detailed the intelligence, star maps, or descriptions from others may be, they cannot compare to the awe and sense of insignificance that comes from witnessing firsthand the broken behemoth lying in the chaos—a feeling that originates from the instinct of life itself.

You only know what it's like to see it for yourself.

Amidst the shock, a bold idea flashed through Hu Yanbo's mind like lightning: "The spaceship, as Wu's mechanical super spaceship, even if it is severely damaged, is it itself a weapon?" Or rather, a project that can be "pre-funded"?

1

Once this thought arises, it is difficult to suppress.

"If the spaceship could be pre-funded."

At that time, everything inside the spaceship will no longer be a secret to him, nor will it be a dangerous place that requires him to risk his life to explore!

"Those supreme treasures that even the strongest beings in the universe covet and would risk their lives for?"

"It's probably just standard equipment that can be seen everywhere on the roadside."

What's truly precious are those "eternal god-level" treasures!

That would be enough to arm him to the teeth in a very short time, giving him the formidable resources to even face the Beasts of the Realm!

"Furthermore... the owner of the spaceship is a powerful figure whom Duan Donghe calls 'General'."

"From what I understand, General, in the Origin Continent, the only beings in the God Kingdom who have comprehended are probably Eternal True Gods who have grasped some Chaos Realm techniques."

"And those in the Chaos Realm are granted the title of Marquis."

"Therefore, if you can get an advance, repaying it won't be too difficult!"

"After all, the Wu Kingdom shouldn't be powerful enough to use a Marquis as a general, right?" This insignificant thought flashed through Huyan Bo's mind for the last time, and he temporarily suppressed his idea about "pre-borrowing the spaceship".

"I don't want to think about that now. Let's focus on training." The bloodlust in his crimson eyes subsided.

"Even if we don't upgrade the divine body to the third stage, at least we should raise the level of willpower!"

Hu Yanbo also sensed that the further one progresses in cultivation, the more important willpower becomes!

Without sufficient willpower, let alone the "Lieyuan Technique," one cannot even learn the Divine Eye Secret Technique from the Mountain-Sitting Guest.

Therefore, despite the turmoil in his mind, he did not hesitate to act.

Hu Yanbo scanned the endless expanse of damaged ship hulls ahead and quickly retrieved the path information given to him by Zuo Shan Ke, which was also combined with the information collected by the human race over a long period of time.

"We need to safely reach the Black-Patterned Stone Pillar space in the inner region from this outermost area." Hu Yanbo quickly planned the route.

"The route I chose requires traversing 892 known, extremely dangerous areas. This is already one of the routes that, after comprehensive comparison, is relatively close in distance and passes through the fewest 'deadly' and 'dangerous' areas."

This is with the addition of the Mountain Dweller's map. If we use the original map of the human race, the shortest path from the outermost domain to the inner domain Black Pattern Stone Pillar would have to cross nearly a thousand dangerous areas!

"892 locations. That'll take about 500 years!" Hu Yanbo's eyes flashed with a deep, dark light, but he showed no fear.

With each teleportation, they quickly disappeared into the depths of that dark, icy rift.

Upon entering the spaceship, the environment suddenly changed drastically.

Following the map's guidance, Hu Yanbo teleported forward repeatedly in areas with relatively stable structures and weak spatial turbulence.

If you encounter an area where teleportation is not possible, switch to flight while remaining highly vigilant.

Therefore, the journey was filled with only apprehensions and no real dangers.

Occasionally, when encountering more dangerous areas, one can break through using the supreme treasure of the Peak Palace given by the Mountain Guest.

In the cosmic sea, supreme palace-type treasures are not only a symbol of survival, but also a symbol of power!

For an ordinary universe master, possessing a top-tier palace-type treasure is already a rare feat. At the peak level, it is mostly held by fifth-tier top universe masters or the strongest beings in the universe.

Possessing such a treasure means having at least top-tier fourth-order or even fifth-order combat power, and extremely strong survival ability.

Therefore, even in this cosmic ship teeming with madmen and outlaws, most of the powerful figures from the first and second reincarnation eras who sensed the aura of the "Palace of Myriad Phenomena" and were lurking in the shadows chose to remain still.

It's not worth taking the risk for someone whose background is unknown and who is clearly not someone to mess with.

Unless there is an absolute conflict of interest, or one is confident that they can seal the supreme treasure of the ultimate palace.

In the blink of an eye, two hundred years have passed quietly in these teleportations and flights.

Hu Yanbo has already ventured deep into the inner domain of the spaceship, and according to the map, he is only about two-thirds of the way from his destination, the "Black Patterned Stone Pillar" space.

At this moment, a message arrived, forcing Huyanbo to turn away from the place of the Black-Patterned Stone Pillar and go elsewhere.

Before the Temple of the Giant Axe, the chaotic energy still flows slowly, unchanged since time immemorial.

One by one, the figures sat solemnly, their gazes all focused on the towering figure in the main seat—the founder of the giant axe.

"Gentlemen," the founder of the giant axe said in a deep voice, getting straight to the point.

"Just now, darkness sent out a distress signal from the spaceship."

"I have already set off and am heading to the spaceship at full speed."

His words were concise yet made the hearts of all the universe lords present sink.

Thanks to Zuoshanke joining the Hongmeng and generously contributing the detailed maps of the three great forbidden zones he possessed, the scope and depth of the human race's exploration in the Cosmic Sea have been greatly expanded.

Many areas that were previously untouchable or required enormous sacrifices to explore now have relatively clear pathways, greatly increasing opportunities.

The Lord of Darkness, as one of the oldest and most powerful cosmic lords among humankind, possesses top-tier fifth-order strength. Because he has kept his identity hidden for many years, he is unknown to outsiders and often does not explore the same areas as humankind.

Therefore, after obtaining the new map, he chose the area of ​​the spaceship nearby for in-depth exploration.

With its formidable strength, rich experience, and the advantage of the new map, the early exploration went quite smoothly, and it even sent back some valuable discoveries.

Who would have thought that a distress signal would suddenly arrive today!

"Founder of the Giant Axe," the Ice Peak Lord, whose face was always cold and whose aura was like that of eternal ice, spoke first, his voice carrying an unusual urgency, "What exactly is the current situation of Senior Brother Darkness?"

"Is there more information in the distress signal? Are they trapped in a deadly trap, or have they encountered a powerful enemy?"

The Lord of Darkness and the Lord of Ice Peak were both disciples of the Primordial Ancestor, and their bond as fellow disciples was deep. At this moment, the coldness in the Lord of Ice Peak's eyes was almost materializing.

"Teacher! Is Teacher in danger?!" Lord Youhou stood up abruptly, his voice trembling slightly.

The Lord of Darkness is not only an important pillar of the human race, but also the mentor of Youhou, who guided him on the path to becoming a powerful being!

If the teacher were to perish, it would be an unbearable pain for him and for humanity.

Other cosmic lords, such as the Lord of Huangjian, the Lord of Penggong, the Lord of Longxing, and the Lord of Qingdong, also had tense expressions, their eyes fixed on the creator of the giant axe.

The Lord of Darkness is not only a top-tier fifth-order universe lord, but also one of the important hidden trump cards of the human race. He has been active in the cosmic sea as a lone powerhouse for many years, acquiring a large amount of valuable intelligence and resources for the human race.

Facing the anxious gazes of the crowd, the founder of the giant axe replied in a deep voice, "The situation is critical, but it is not yet hopeless."

Thanks to the "Divine Power Burning Secret Technique" previously contributed by Wanxiang, Darkness can briefly unleash the power of a top-tier sixth-order universe lord, and is currently out of immediate danger.

"But that's only 'for now'!"

"The powerful members of the Divine Eye Clan are heading in large numbers to the area where darkness is trapped!"

"The exact number is unknown, but as time goes on, even Allah himself might arrive!"

"The Divine Eye Clan?!" Everyone was shocked.

"How did they end up there? And why make such a fuss?"

What did the exploration in the dark yield?

Everyone was shocked.

The Divine Eye Clan, the pinnacle race of the first era of reincarnation, possesses seven of the strongest beings in the universe. Their overall strength is considered the crown jewel of the universe. The clan has a large number of universe lords, who are generally powerful, with many being at the fifth or sixth rank.

They acted domineeringly and often looked down on the races from the primitive universe era.

If the Divine Eye Clan has indeed set its sights on the Lord of Darkness, then we're in big trouble!

The Great Axe Founder nodded solemnly: "The Dark's plea for help, though brief, stated that he had obtained two supreme treasures in Forge Canyon!"

"What?!"

"An ultimate treasure?! And two of them?!"

"hiss--"

Even these top human experts who had seen countless storms and whose minds were hardened to the point of being almost calm and composed couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, their faces filled with disbelief and shock!

Supreme power and treasure!

That is an ultimate treasure that would drive even the strongest beings in the universe to madness and risk their lives for! For ordinary universe masters, possessing even one of these supreme treasures is a dream come true.

Throughout countless ages, the entire human race, apart from the suppressed progenitors, has never discovered any supreme treasure.

The Lord of Darkness discovered two items in a single exploration?!

This opportunity is simply incredible!

The creator of the giant axe didn't keep anyone in suspense, speaking rapidly: "One is the most powerful treasure for axe-type attacks! The other is the most powerful treasure for soul defense!"

"Axe-type! Soul Defense!"

Another gasp arose, which quickly turned into a deeper solemnity and fervor.

Axes are the most powerful and precious weapons!

This is practically a divine weapon tailor-made for the founder of the giant axe!

The founder of the giant axe is incredibly powerful, but the reason why he is not well-known as the strongest in the universe is precisely because he lacks a supreme treasure weapon that can further enhance his attack power!

The most powerful and precious axe-type weapons will only further enhance the giant axe's capabilities, building upon existing strengths.

If the creator of the giant axe could obtain this axe, his combat power would undergo a qualitative leap, making him terrifying even among the strongest beings in the universe, and greatly increasing the deterrent power of the human race!

This has immeasurable significance for the entire community!

And the most powerful and supreme treasure for soul defense!

This is recognized as one of the most precious, rarest, and most sought-after among all the supreme treasures!

With it, you'll have more confidence to venture into more dangerous places, seize more opportunities, and create a virtuous cycle!

"Axe-type, Soul Defense!" The Chaos City Lord's silver-white eyes flashed intensely, and even he was filled with excitement at this moment.

"We can hardly give up these two priceless treasures willingly!"

give up?

How can you give up!

We must not give up until we are in dire straits!

"Therefore, Darkness can only rely on the power of the treasure that has just begun to recognize its master, combined with the burning of divine power, to escape from there, or to buy time for the giant axe to descend!" said the Lord of the Ice Peaks.

"Initial recognition of mastery—although the supreme treasure is powerful, how much of its power can it unleash in the darkness?" the Lord of Dragons asked worriedly.

Such a powerful treasure cannot be comprehended immediately upon acquisition, as its hidden runes cannot be fully understood!

Generally speaking, a powerful universe master can quickly comprehend the relatively basic first level of secret runes, but if one wants to comprehend the third level of secret runes, which is the most crucial to improving the combat power of a universe master, it takes a long time!

This is by no means something that can be achieved overnight on a battlefield where powerful enemies surround you and the situation changes rapidly.

Moreover, what the Lord of Darkness obtained was an axe-type weapon of supreme power!

"In such a rush, there was no time to accelerate the environment for him to comprehend it—" said the Lord of Chaos City.

"At present, Darkness can probably only rely on the initial recognition of its master to make the axe form a set of armor covering the divine body, and at the same time make the soul defense treasure form basic protection."

"It's probably impossible to significantly increase his combat power level from the sixth rank after burning divine power."

Everyone's heart sank.

Yes, if the Lord of Darkness could master one of the most powerful treasures in a short period of time, and combine it with the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique, his combat power could probably instantly soar to the threshold of the seventh rank!

In that case, as long as several Allahs don't personally arrive, the Divine Eye Clan will be safe!

However, that was just a dream; the reality was only—"I have already set off from the inner domain of the Peak Realm and am heading towards the spaceship at top speed." The founder of the Giant Axe broke the silence!

"Now that I have mastered the 'Divine Power Burning Secret Technique' offered by Wanxiang, even without that axe, my full power is enough to reach the ninth-tier combat strength!"

"If only one or two True Lords from the Divine Eye Clan come, I have no fear!"

"Even if their First God himself arrives, forming an alliance with the other Gods, I am confident I can handle the situation and even lead the darkness out to fight my way out!"

Ninth Rank!

This is a symbol of the truly top-tier combat power among the strongest beings in the universe!

Giant Axe's words undoubtedly gave everyone a shot in the arm.

The giant axe, now equipped with the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique, has indeed undergone a qualitative change in combat power, giving it enough influence to have a significant voice among the top fighters in the Cosmic Sea.

"What I worry about is never being unable to win," the founder of the Giant Axe said, his tone turning serious.

"It's not that we can't make it in time."

Everyone remained silent.

This is the most fatal problem.

No matter how strong the rescuers are, if they can't get to the battlefield, it's all for naught.

In this suffocating silence, a calm voice suddenly rang out from the other end of the long stone table, clearly reaching the ears of every lord of the universe: "I believe it is not too late to respond."

The sound wasn't loud, but it was like a thunderclap, exploding in the silent temple!

Swish!

All eyes instantly turned to the source of the sound: the black-haired youth, Hu Yanbo, the Lord of All Things, who sat silently at the other end of the long stone table, facing the Giant Axe Founder!

"All things?!"

"You, weren't you in the primordial universe? How come—"
