Swallowing the Stars: The cheat system only comes when I'm almost a god?

"We can begin!"

"Start what?" Huo Ling'er asked, puzzled.

Shi Hao did not answer. He quietly released his arms, which had been wrapped around her slender waist, and pulled her out of the Butian Pavilion.

"Elders, it is time!"

The brat's voice echoed through the sky, while Huo Ling'er stood beside him, her attention mostly on the boy next to her.

The moment the words fell, the elders of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion unleashed an earth-shattering aura.

"Fellow disciples, there's no need to hide any longer!"

Elder Mu Yan was the first to let out a long roar, and lightning crackled around his body.

Shockingly, his ordinary blue robe instantly transformed into a purple-gold armor, its surface branded with intricate lightning runes, each armor plate seemingly crackling with electric snakes.

The elder of the Li Clan opposite him had his pupils shrink. He had just been suppressing Mu Yan, but now he felt a chilling pressure: "This...this is...the Divine Armor?!"

"Let me show you the true power of thunder!" Mu Yan laughed, charging straight at the opponent's powerful technique without dodging or avoiding it.

The Heavenly Thunder Spell unleashed by the elder of the Li Clan struck Mu Yan squarely in the chest, exploding with purple lightning and blasting huge holes into the surrounding clouds.

However, when the smoke and dust cleared, Mu Yan only swayed slightly. Lightning patterns flowed on his purple-gold armor, absorbing most of the terrifying lightning power. The remaining part was simply unable to break through his defenses.

"Impossible! My Heavenly Thunder Curse is the perfect counter to your Thunder Dao Treasure Technique!" Elder Li exclaimed.

Mu Yan was already close by when he threw a punch.

The lightning patterns on the armor lit up, increasing the power of Mu Yan's lightning magic several times over, and the air crackled and popped wherever his fist passed.

"Bang!"

The elder's protective magic shattered like paper, and he was sent flying dozens of feet before crashing into the mountainside, his fate unknown.

……

On the other side, Elder Liu was facing a powerful figure from the Tuoba clan, and the two were initially evenly matched.

At this moment, the hempen clothes on Old Liu's body were removed, revealing a set of silver-white soft armor underneath. The armor was as thin as silk, yet it exuded a chillingly sharp aura.

"You old scoundrel, you've been hiding your true strength!" The Tuoba clan expert gritted his teeth and unleashed a bronze battle halberd, its blade radiating a murderous aura.

Elder Liu did not answer, but formed a hand seal and used a powerful killing technique from the Heaven-Mending Pavilion called "Gold-Slaying Technique".

Unlike usual, his silver armor shone brightly, amplifying the power of his magic technique to an unbelievable degree—what could originally only condense into three or five golden blades now transformed into a rain of golden light!

The metal elemental laws of the silver armor resonated with the Golden-Slaying Technique, and each golden blade carried the power to pierce through mountains.

The powerful warriors of the Tuoba clan brandished their halberds to defend themselves, the bronze halberds colliding with the golden rain, producing a piercing friction sound.

After three moves, cracks appeared on the battle halberd, and by the fifth move, the battle halberd had completely shattered!

"This... is my natal magic weapon!" The Tuoba clan expert's eyes widened in horror.

……

Similar scenes played out repeatedly across the battlefield.

Elder Xiong Fei was originally besieged by two experts and was in great danger.

At this moment, a set of heavy, earth-yellow armor appeared on his body. The armor was as thick as a mountain, with mountain-like patterns on the surface, exuding an aura of calm and steadfastness.

The opponent's attack only created ripples, not even enough to make him take a step back.

"My turn!" Xiong Fei roared, the mountain patterns on his heavy armor lit up, and he unleashed the "Mountain Shaking Fist," a treasured technique of the Butian Pavilion.

This was originally an ordinary fist technique, but now, with the support of heavy armor, each punch carried the power to topple mountains. The two attackers were beaten to a pulp in just seven or eight moves.

……

Another female elder, Shu Yun, was facing a powerful member of the Rain Clan.

Her armor was light blue and thin as gauze, yet it remained unmoved by the opponent's myriad rain-like killing moves. Every raindrop was drawn and controlled by an invisible force field when it came within three feet of the armor.

"The Rain Clan's techniques are nothing special." Shu Yun sneered, ripples spreading across his armor as he unleashed his treasured technique, "Azure Waves Piercing the Clouds."

At this moment, the palm force, amplified by the armor, transformed into a monstrous wave that surged back, actually shattering the opponent's rain technique!

In just a few dozen breaths, the battlefield situation was completely reversed!

The elders of the Butian Pavilion, who were originally at a disadvantage, were now like tigers among sheep.

These armors were all obtained by Little Dot from Lin Yuan using his special techniques. Equipment below the Immortal level was nothing to him, but the elders in the Armory could greatly increase their combat power.

"This...this is impossible!" a cultivator from the besieging force screamed. "Each set is at the level of divine battle armor! How could the Heaven-Mending Pavilion have so many?!"

Panic spread like a plague.

What made the attackers even more desperate was the changing battle situation high in the sky.

"Hey!"

The Sky-Swallowing Sparrow let out a mournful cry as a green vine pierced its left wing, and black blood rained down.

The vine came from the gourd offering to the spirit, and at this moment, it showed no sign of weakness whatsoever.

The gourd vine has a thick, dragon-like trunk, which is emerald green and exudes the essence of life.

The green gourd hanging on the vine suddenly shone with a bright green light, and a chaotic aura burst forth from its mouth. Each wisp was as heavy as a mountain, pressing down on the void and causing it to groan.

This is the true form of the gourd offering to the spirit, which condenses its lifelong cultivation and understanding of the Great Dao into this natal gourd.

This gourd may look ordinary, but it actually contains chaos within, capable of suppressing all things and refining all enemies!

The two ferocious beast overlords, the Sky-Devouring Sparrow and the Qiongqi, were being forced into a retreat!

"Old Vine, you've been faking it all along!" Qiongqi roared. One of its claws was grazed by the chaotic energy, and its flesh instantly melted away, revealing its stark white bones.

The gourd-shaped spirit offering echoed with a vast and majestic voice, reverberating throughout heaven and earth: "If I do not draw you all out to destroy the world, how can I purify the wicked? Today, I will use your essence and blood to nourish my Pure Land of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion!"

Emerald green vines, like chains of divine order, sealed off the void. A green gourd hung in the center of the vines, its mouth aimed at the two ferocious beasts, spewing out even more chaotic energy.

These chaotic energies blocked all escape routes, and wherever they passed, even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was assimilated and devoured.

Even more terrifying was that the gourd itself was gently shaking, and each shake emitted a harmonious sound of the Great Dao, which shook the souls of the Devouring Sky Sparrow and Qiongqi to the point of shattering. This was a method of directly attacking the soul.

As for the Venerables from Xiling Beast Mountain and other forces around them? They were too weak. They couldn't even withstand a few moves from the old vine that had erupted. Their deaths would be the day the two ferocious beasts fell!

On the battlefield, those minor factions that had been kicking someone when they were down unconsciously stopped and stared in astonishment at everything that was happening.

The situation reversed too quickly and too completely!

"The Heaven-Mending Pavilion... truly lives up to its reputation as an ancient pure land, its foundation is so profound." An elder who was watching the battle sighed, "Although the inheritance of the sect's treasure techniques is incomplete, these divine battle armors can make up for everything. Each set is enough to increase a cultivator's combat power several times over."

The female war goddess of Zhulu Academy's eyes shone with admiration: "These armors are priceless; each set is enough to be a treasured artifact of a great sect. The fact that the Patching Heaven Pavilion can provide so many to arm its elders is truly impressive..."

The War King stared intently at Elder Xiong Fei's mountain-like heavy armor, his Adam's apple bobbing: "If I were to use that armor, my combat power would increase by at least 30%! No, 50%!"

Ling Tianhou was even more exasperated, his eyes practically glued to Mu Yan's purple-gold thunder armor: "Thunder Dao Armor... if combined with my Ling family's thunder techniques, it might be able to glimpse even higher levels of thunder Dao mysteries."

The two kings exchanged a glance and saw the burning desire in each other's eyes.

However, they knew they couldn't possibly acquire a set. Such divine armor was undoubtedly the most treasured possession of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, and they probably wouldn't have brought it out unless faced with the threat of annihilation.

The battlefield gradually quieted down, and the besieging forces began to consider retreating.

However, just when things seemed to be calming down, a sudden change occurred!

Within the Rain Clan's camp, three cultivators at the Spirit Transformation Realm suddenly erupted.

They were only a hundred feet away from Little Dot and Fire Spirit, and at this moment they unleashed their full power, increasing their speed to the extreme.

"Rain Transforms into Heavenly Blades!"

"Nine Netherworld Rain Slaughter!"

"Mysterious Rain Shatters the Gods!"

Three top-tier killing techniques from the Rain Clan simultaneously blasted towards Shi Hao at tricky angles, sealing off all his escape routes.

This was clearly a premeditated assassination, with the timing perfectly timed.

"How dare you!"

The Fire Emperor was furious. A giant hand of flame materialized out of thin air and grabbed at the three people, but he was too far away to stop it.

"Father!"

Huo Ling'er exclaimed in surprise, but she reacted quickly, her crimson sword gleaming as she stood in front of Shi Hao.

However, a stronger arm pulled her behind her.

"Don't move." Shi Hao's voice was frighteningly calm.

The three killing techniques struck Shi Hao squarely!

Raindrops transformed into blades, dark, corrosive rain mist, and the highly penetrating divine light of the mysterious rain.

Any one of them would be enough to severely injure or even kill a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm. Now that the three are combined, their power is terrifying!

"Boom!"

Smoke and dust exploded, creating a crater ten feet in diameter in the ground, with debris flying everywhere.

"Little one!" The elders of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion in the sky couldn't help but exclaim.

"Ling'er!" The Fire Emperor's eyes were bloodshot. His fiery hand finally arrived and slapped the Rain Clan cultivator who had attacked into a bloody mist.

The wrath of the Emperor can change the very fabric of the world!

The temperature on the entire battlefield soared, the laws of fire boiled, and many cultivators felt their souls about to be ignited.

"Fire Emperor, please calm your anger!" An elder from the Rain Clan's camp hurriedly spoke up, "Those three acted without authorization and deserve to die! But their target was just the brat; their attacks avoided Princess Ling'er!"

"Bullshit!" The Fire Emperor roared, his imperial majesty enveloping the entire area. "Do you think I can't see through this?"

The Nine Nether Rain Killer contained the "Rain Soul Scattering Curse," and when it exploded near Ling'er, the damage to her soul was only minor!

"You Rain Clan have already chosen a path to your own demise!"

As he spoke, his gaze swept across the Rain Clan camp, and all the Rain Clan members felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave. Those with weaker cultivation levels immediately vomited blood and collapsed to the ground.

At this moment, the smoke and dust slowly dissipated.

The sight in the center of the deep pit made everyone gasp in horror.

Huo Ling'er was held tightly in Shi Hao's arms. The young man turned his back to the direction of the attack, completely shielding her. He also pressed one hand against the back of her head, protecting her completely.

Huo Ling'er was completely unharmed, not even a speck of dust on her dress, but her face was a little red, whether from shock or something else was unknown.

And Shi Hao...

His clothes were torn, revealing a strange set of armor underneath.

The armor was composed of countless shell-shaped plates, milky white in color, with naturally formed spiral patterns on the surface that shimmered with iridescent light in the sunlight.

Most shockingly, there wasn't a single scratch on the armor!

That was a combined attack from three peak Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators. Even an ordinary Inscription Realm cultivator would be severely injured if they took it head-on, but the result was...

"What... what kind of armor is this?" a cultivator murmured.

Shi Hao slowly released Huo Ling'er and patted her back: "It's alright, Brother Lin Yuan's pupa shell is really useful."

Huo Ling'er lifted her head from his embrace, her eyes slightly red, but her cheeks even redder: "Are you... are you alright?"

"It's nothing." Shi Hao patted his chest armor, then turned to look at the Fire Emperor with an innocent expression. "Your Majesty, these Rain Clan people are so uncivilized. They actually ambushed me, a mere cultivator who hasn't even reached the Spirit Transformation Realm."

As he spoke, he not only didn't let go of Huo Ling'er, but instead pulled her closer to him, as if to say, "I'm scared and need your protection."

The Fire Emperor's eye twitched.

He noticed Shi Hao's subtle movements, his daughter's blushing face, and the boy's obviously stronger armor.

"With armor like that protecting you, what the hell are you afraid of? Keep pretending!"

But unfortunately, this kid was indeed protecting Ling'er, so the Fire Emperor couldn't retaliate. He could only snort coldly and let his gaze sweep over Shi Hao like a knife.

Shi Hao seemed oblivious to the Fire Emperor's murderous aura, remaining close to Huo Ling'er and whispering, "Fatty, stand even closer, it'll be safer that way."

Huo Ling'er bit her lip, seemingly used to the way the mischievous child addressed her, and softly hummed in agreement, surprisingly not dodging away.

This scene made the Fire Emperor's forehead veins throb.
