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

In the primordial universe, deep within the city of chaos, in a hidden palace.

The founder of the giant axe sat high in the main seat, with the Lord of Chaos City standing beside him, and several other cosmic lords, such as the Lord of Ice Peak, the Lord of Dragon Journey, and the Lord of Void Gold, lined up on either side.

Below, the two resurrected human cosmic overlords stared wide-eyed at the imprisoned figure in the center of the arena.

Emperor Yan.

Even though he was imprisoned, his domineering aura remained undiminished. The fiery crown on his head had dimmed, and his renowned supreme treasure armor, the "Flame Emperor Armor," had been stripped off. However, there was no fear in his eyes; instead, they were filled with mockery and disdain as he coldly surveyed everyone present.

"Giant Axe." The Flame Emperor's voice broke the frozen atmosphere. He looked up at the head of the table. "I admit that I did some things that went too far on the Primal Star. But so what?"

"It's just a few treasures, and you've already resurrected them all. I can just compensate them. Are you really going to go to such lengths to suppress me over such a trivial matter?"

He paused, then a smirk appeared on his lips: "I'm not afraid to tell you, my teacher is the Mountain Hermit. Do you really want to offend the strongest being in the universe for the sake of these few good-for-nothings?"

"presumptuous!"

The Dragon Sword Venerable could no longer contain himself and roared, "Emperor Yan! You seized my sword and killed me to silence me, and you think that's just going too far? Just a trivial matter? My master, the Dragon Path Master, is right here. Do you dare repeat what you just said?!"

The Venerable Rock beside him was also clenching his fists tightly; if the occasion hadn't been so inappropriate, he probably would have already pounced forward.

The founder of the giant axe watched Yan Di's performance in silence, the last trace of warmth in his eyes completely dissipating.

He spoke slowly: "Even now, you show not a shred of remorse. Harming your comrades, plundering your allies—do you still have even a shred of your people? A shred of your principles?"

Emperor Yan scoffed: "Clan? Morality? Giant Axe, don't pretend to be righteous here."

The universe operates on the law of the jungle! I'm stronger than them, so naturally I can take their treasures. How is that any different from you stealing treasure from the cosmic ocean?

"Enough." The founder of the giant axe raised his hand to interrupt, his eyes filled with deep disappointment.

He stopped looking at Emperor Yan and turned to the Lord of Chaos City beside him: "Chaos, take him away and seal him away in the depths of the primordial universe."

"Without my order, they shall never be released!"

"Yes." The Lord of Chaos City nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the power of spacetime enveloped the Flame Emperor, completely imprisoning him.

Yan Di still wanted to struggle, but the gap between him and the Lord of Chaos City was greater than the gap between a child and an adult. His power was completely suppressed, his figure quickly faded, and he was teleported away.

After Emperor Yan disappeared, the heavy atmosphere in the hall eased slightly.

With a flick of his hand, the founder of the giant axe revealed several supreme treasures radiating powerful energy.

He looked at Venerable Dragon Sword and Venerable Rock: "Dragon Sword, Rock."

The two men quickly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Lord Giant Axe."

The giant axe pushed three ancient swords—Azure Nether, Crimson Flame, and Silver Frost—as well as a mace-shaped treasure exuding a heavy aura to the two of them.

"This should be your lost treasure. Check if there are any problems."

The Dragon Sword Venerable received the three ancient swords with trembling hands, a familiar feeling welling up in his heart.

He bowed again, deeply moved: "Thank you, Lord Giant Axe, for upholding justice for us and recovering our priceless treasure!"

Venerable Panshi gripped the Heavy Mountain Mace tightly, also moved to tears of gratitude.

It would be good enough if the supreme treasures could be returned. As for those important treasures that were taken away by Emperor Yan after his death? Are we really going to let the two cosmic lords make a wasted trip?

Although those things are nothing to the great cosmic lord and would most likely be sold to the clan's treasury in the end, ownership has now been transferred to those two.

They might be rewarded later, but they must not snatch it before the other party asks!

At this moment, Venerable Yan Cang, who had been standing still, stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Lord Giant Axe."

The giant axe looked at him, his expression softening slightly: "Yan Cang, you were the first to expose the Yan Emperor's crimes, which is a great service to the clan. May I ask what brings you here?"

Venerable Yan Cang took a deep breath, his eyes filled with anticipation: "Lord Giant Axe, I wonder... I wonder if I could purchase the other two components of the Flame Luo Locking Heaven Ring now? That is, the Earth-Binding Lock and the Luo Heaven Lock."

If the creator of the giant axe were to hand over the Yan Emperor's treasure to the clan's treasury, the treasure would be devalued when it enters the treasury, and its price would rise again when he redeems it. Domain-type treasures are inherently expensive, so this back-and-forth might create a price difference of tens or hundreds of treasure points.

If he could exchange it directly from the giant axe at this moment, he could save a lot of wealth.

Upon hearing this, the creator of the giant axe pondered for a moment, then took out an item from a pile of treasures floating beside him.

It was a chain consisting of two ancient locks connected together. One lock was dark yellow and as heavy as a mountain, and it was called the Earth-Binding Lock. The other lock was dark blue and had faint phantom images of the myriad phenomena of the heavens flowing around it. It was the newly born Heavenly Lock.

The domain fluctuations emitted after the two locks were connected were already extremely astonishing, reaching the level of a top-tier treasure, only one link away from becoming a true peak domain-type treasure.

"You certainly know how to pick your time." Giant Axe's lips curled up slightly. "Fine, you've done a good job this time, so I'll grant you some favors."

The combined value of these two locks is among the highest of all top-tier treasures. Normally, you would need to exchange them for at least a top-tier treasure or corresponding treasure points. However, considering your contribution, I will give you two high-level treasures in return.

Venerable Yan Cang was overjoyed upon hearing this.

He had only asked casually, but he never expected the creator of the giant axe to be so agreeable, and the price was unbelievably generous.

Exchanging two high-level treasures for most of the components of a top-tier treasure is an incredible deal.

It should be noted that such a treasure would be priced at least as high as five high-grade treasures in the clan's treasury. The giant axe's words directly saved him the wealth of several high-grade treasures.

"Very well! Thank you, Lord Giant Axe!" Venerable Yan Cang quickly took out two high-grade treasures and presented them to him.

He is a top-tier cosmic overlord. He was already famous before Yan Di became the master of the universe. He has accumulated a lot of treasures from the opening of the primordial star so many times, so he can naturally afford to produce two high-level treasures.

The giant axe accepted the treasure and handed the chain ring to Yan Cang.

Venerable Yan Cang couldn't wait to take out the Flame Heart Lock he possessed. The three locks resonated with each other, and the three colors of light flowed around, showing a faint tendency to merge into one. A wave that even the Lord of the Universe would take notice of appeared faintly.

He suppressed his excitement and carefully put away the three locks.

"Congratulations, little fellow," the Giant Axe Founder smiled. "Although they will need some time to merge, once successful, it will be a true pinnacle domain-level treasure. Many universe lords in our race have yet to obtain such a treasure."

Venerable Yan Cang thanked him repeatedly, but a trace of regret flashed through his heart: "It's all that bastard Yan Di's fault!"

"If it weren't for his interference, Luo Tiansuo would have been safely in his hands long ago. In that case, he might only have had to pay off a high-grade treasure."

Of course, this thought only flashed through his mind. He knew that Lord Giant Axe had already taken great care of him, so he quickly composed himself and thanked him again.

Seeing that Venerable Yan Cang had obtained the desired treasure component at a discounted price, Venerable Long Jian's interest also began to stir.

He hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and respectfully bowed, saying, "Lord Giant Axe."

The founder of the giant axe turned his gaze to him: "Dragon Sword, you have something to say too?"

Dragon Sword Venerable's eyes were filled with hope: "Lord Giant Axe, I wonder... I wonder if the last main sword and the array diagram of the Four Symbols Slaughtering Heaven Sword Formation are also among Emperor Yan's collection?"

This disciple dares to emulate Venerable Yan Cang and purchase them in advance.

Upon hearing this, the creator of the giant axe retrieved two more items from Emperor Yan's pile of treasures.

A heavy, ancient longsword, and a diagram depicting the four constellations.

As soon as the two objects appeared, they resonated slightly with the three swords—Azure Nether, Crimson Flame, and Silver Frost—that were floating beside the Dragon Sword Venerable.

"The Xuanhuang Sword and the array diagram are indeed here." The founder of the giant axe nodded. "When this sword array is complete, it is among the top-tier treasure weapons."

According to the treasure vault's valuation, the value of this sword and the diagram is roughly equivalent to a high-grade treasure weapon.

He looked at the Dragon Sword Venerable: "Dragon Sword, your clan has resurrected you for free and retrieved the three swords as compensation."

As is customary, this early redemption will require exchanging one high-grade Arcana item or an equivalent amount of Arcana Points.

Upon hearing this, the Dragon Sword Venerable's heart sank.

A supreme treasure!

Although he was the personal disciple of the Dragon Lord, the wealth he had accumulated was far less than that of a veteran top overlord like Venerable Yan Cang.

He only possesses three ancient swords that are considered treasures, but he cannot exchange them for anything. Furthermore, the value of his other treasures combined is far less than that of a single high-level treasure.

As for the treasure points... he was even more strapped for cash.

Seeing the troubled look on the face of the Dragon Sword Venerable, the Dragon Lord sighed and stepped forward.

"The Giant Axe," said the Lord of Dragons. "Dragon Sword is my disciple. Since he has spoken up, I, as his teacher, cannot stand idly by. I will offer this high-grade treasure on his behalf."

After saying that, the Lord of Dragons flipped his hand and took out an ice-blue spear that exuded a chilling aura; it was clearly a high-grade treasure weapon.

He handed the spear to the founder of the giant axe: "This spear is called Ice Soul, and its value should be sufficient."

The founder of the giant axe nodded after receiving the Ice Soul Spear and handed the Xuanhuang Sword and the array diagram to the Dragon Sword Venerable.

The Dragon Sword Venerable received the coveted treasure component, his hands trembling slightly with excitement. He turned and bowed deeply to the Dragon Lord, saying, "Thank you, Master! This disciple... this disciple will return a high-grade treasure to you as soon as possible!"

"It's alright." The Lord of Dragons waved his hand. "Your priority is to improve your strength. As for repaying the debt..."

After pondering for a moment, he said, "There are still more than nine hundred epochs before the Primordial Star opens this time. After you have completely refined the sword formation, you can go and explore again. If you are lucky, it will not be difficult to obtain a high-level treasure."

"Yes! This disciple will remember!" Venerable Dragon Sword replied solemnly.

The Rock Venerable watched this scene with envy in his eyes.

He also longed to buy back the treasures that had been stolen from him or exchange them for other treasures that could enhance his strength.

However, he knew in his heart that his teacher was just an ordinary cosmic venerable, and in terms of strength and wealth, he was probably not as good as he was now. He was simply powerless to stand up for him like the Lord of Dragons.

He could only sigh inwardly, suppressing this desire and waiting for the future to accumulate it slowly.

……

The gaze shifts to the secret realm of the Yan God Clan.

The aftermath of the battle has long since subsided.

In the void, the enormous golden light net and ring of stars converged, sealing off the entire exit of the secret realm completely.

The secret realm was devastated, but the resistance of the Yan God Clan had ceased, and all its members had been imprisoned and subdued.

Some of the fiercely independent Flame God Clan Immortals attempted to self-destruct before being defeated and captured, hoping to take several human powerhouses with them.

However, compared to Lin Yuan and Venerable Yan Yue, who were experts in this field, they were merely showing off their limited skills.

Lin Yuan disrupted the opponent's will with a powerful soul strike, followed closely by Venerable Yan Yue's divine power restraint, nipping the danger in the bud.

To Lin Yuan's surprise, Yan Jin, the invincible king-level expert, never showed any intention of self-destruction even as his divine body was constantly being depleted, not even when he was forced into a deep sleep.

His eyes were filled with anger and resentment, but not with the madness that comes with despair.

Lin Yuan had a vague feeling that this person might be harboring other thoughts, or perhaps... expectations?

But none of that matters now. His world ring is overflowing with goods, and the joy of a bountiful harvest is impossible to hide.

His first wave of illusion magic captured nearly half of the ordinary immortal gods of the Yan God Clan, totaling more than 2,500, including more than 130 Marquis-level immortals and the rest were immortal military lords.

These people are physically strong and have extremely high genetic potential, making them excellent candidates for servants or warriors, and are very valuable.

What pleased him even more was that he had personally captured the two powerful kings he had fought against.

Yan Lie was an "old acquaintance" of his; the other party had forcibly bought the spear he had ordered years ago, which was later taken back by his newly appointed master, Yan Yue Wang. This time, Yan Lie had personally suppressed him, which felt like a karmic cycle. .

In addition, some of the armor beads found in the Yan Shen Clan's treasury are also quite valuable. Apart from keeping some for personal use, the rest can be sold to the clan's treasury for money. In short, this time they really made a fortune.

Lin Yuan sensed the slumbering Yan Shen clan members within the World Ring and murmured to himself, "Perfect genes, here I come!"
