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

Urgent! Major plot twist! Watch now!

Six hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

On Zijing Island, in the quiet room of Lin Yuan's residence, the figure sitting cross-legged slowly opened his eyes.

In an instant, the light in the quiet room seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, forming ripples of flames and space around him, while crimson-gold light flowed endlessly deep within his pupils.

"I have finally fully comprehended the fifth level of the Beast God's inheritance."

Lin Yuan let out a soft breath, feeling the new power flowing through his body.

The flames are no longer just simple explosive energy, but possess the characteristics of spatial extension and traversal; space is no longer a static background, and every void seems to be burning with an inextinguishable fire of law.

He extended his right hand, palm facing up.

A ball of crimson-gold flame appeared out of thin air, containing a terrifying power within—it burned here, and also existed synchronously in all four directions of the quiet room, as if it occupied six different spatial coordinates at the same time.

"The ultimate form of Flame Flash..."

With a slight thought, Lin Yuan's palm flames suddenly contracted, transforming into a thin, hair-like crimson-gold spear beam.

Before the gun had even moved, a hole silently appeared in the wall at the other end of the quiet room. The edges of the hole were as smooth as a mirror, and the matter that had originally been inside the hole had been completely obliterated.

"The power has already arrived before the attack." Lin Yuan nodded in satisfaction. "This is the true meaning of the Fire-Void Fusion Secret Technique."

For six hundred years, with the full support of the enlightenment function in the chat group, he not only fully comprehended the fifth level of the Beast God inheritance, but also used it as a basis to deduce the Flame Flash to the level of the ultimate secret technique.

Although it is only at the initial stage of ultimate power, its power, combined with the divine power quality of the Flame God Clan clone at a genetic level of more than three thousand times, is already comparable to those old overlords who have created ultimate secret techniques for many years.

If we take into account the added bonus of all the treasures he possesses, his strongest Fiery God Clan clone is already comparable in combat power to a top-tier cosmic overlord, and his status within the clan will likely rise significantly.

Of course, this refers to the top overlords of ordinary races. Their assets cannot compare with those of top overlords of peak races like the Ancestral Tree Venerable. Even after accumulating for a long time, the treasures they possess are only about the same as those given to Lin Yuan by the Star Prison Demon Lord. Therefore, he is naturally not afraid of them.

However, compared to the top overlords of other powerful forces, Lin Yuan's treasures are somewhat lacking, and he needs to accumulate more for a while longer.

"It's time to go out for a walk."

Lin Yuan stood up, the fluctuations of the laws around him subsided, and he returned to his normal state.

Six hundred years of uninterrupted comprehension, coupled with the acceleration of the enlightenment function, is by no means easy even for a cosmic venerable; he needs to relax and adjust.

"Let's go check out the treasure land."

Once the thought arose, it could no longer be suppressed.

The Ancestral God Sect's treasure trove is renowned, with countless treasures left behind by powerful figures throughout history, including many important and even supreme treasures.

Although the conditions for opening many treasures are so demanding as to be almost impossible, what if it is?

Lin Yuan walked out of the mansion and transformed into a stream of light, flying towards the square in front of the island lord's palace.

"The Lord of Chaos!"

As soon as I landed, a familiar voice came from inside.

Lin Yuan turned his head and saw Venerable Liuyan, dressed in silver armor, walking towards him with a smile.

"Venerable Liuyan," Lin Yuan replied with a smile.

Both were inheritors of the Ancestral God Cult from the human race. Although they were not very familiar with each other, it was natural for them to feel close when they met in this place where powerful beings from other races gathered.

"Where are you headed?" Venerable Liuyan asked curiously. "It's rare to see you leave your residence. Has your seclusion ended?"

"I've gained some insights, but it's been incredibly tedious, so I came out for some fresh air," Lin Yuan replied with a smile. "I was just planning to visit the treasure trove."

"A treasure trove?" Venerable Liuyan's eyes lit up. "What a coincidence! I was just about to try my luck there. It's Venerable Chaos's first time, so how about I be his guide?"

After a moment's thought, Lin Yuan nodded in agreement: "Then I'll have to trouble you."

The two walked side by side toward the three water curtains in the center of the square.

As they walked, Venerable Liuyan explained to him, "The Treasure Land is the place most often visited by inheritors. After all, it is very difficult to accumulate 100 Glory Points to exchange for an inheritance opportunity, and the Secret Realm is too dangerous. Only the Treasure Land is both safe and offers the opportunity to obtain treasures."

"However..." he paused, then continued, "the conditions for opening the treasures are extremely stringent, especially the treasures on the 108 highest peaks. All inheritors know they are incredibly precious, but obtaining them is a different story..."

Venerable Liuyan shook his head and did not continue, but the meaning of his words was clear—it was as difficult as ascending to heaven.

The two stepped into the central water curtain.

The space shifted, and the view before me suddenly opened up.

The continuous mountain range is like a giant dragon coiled up, with one strange peak after another towering and steep, and lakes scattered like stars. Amidst the shimmering water and mountain scenery, the figures of countless powerful figures can be seen.

Among all the mountains, 108 stand out as particularly majestic, towering between heaven and earth like giant pillars, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.

"Those are the legendary 108 treasures," Venerable Liuyan said, pointing to the peaks.

"The land of treasures is full of treasures, but the treasures in these mountains are the most precious of them all."

The first peak is the highest and contains the most precious treasures. The other peaks are arranged according to the value of the treasures, with their height decreasing in that order.

Since the birth of the universe, these 108 treasures have only been opened 32 times; the rest are still waiting for their destined owners.

Lin Yuan followed the gaze and his eyes were drawn to the dark red mountain that ranked fourth.

"Any inheritor who comes here for the first time will begin their journey from the First Peak," Venerable Liuyan chuckled. "Venerable Chaos, why don't you give it a try too?"

Lin Yuan nodded: "That's exactly what I was thinking."

The two transformed into streaks of light and flew towards the first peak.

Their actions immediately attracted the attention of the other inheritors.

"Look, it's Venerable Flowing Flame from the human race!"

"Who's that next to him? Wait... I remember now. It's the Chaos Venerable of the human race, the one who only came to the Ancestral God Cult six hundred years ago. I heard he once had the feat of slaying a Venerable during his conferment of the title of King!"

"He went to the First Peak too? Hahaha, every newcomer does that."

A variety of gazes were cast upon him, some curious, some scrutinizing, and some with a hint of mockery.

Lin Yuan ignored these discussions.

He quickly landed on the summit of the first peak, and as soon as he landed, he felt an invisible pressure coming from the mountain itself, as if the entire mountain was scrutinizing him and judging whether he met certain conditions.

Ten breaths passed, and the mountain showed no reaction.

"As expected." Venerable Liuyan had anticipated this. "The conditions for the First Treasure are too demanding; no one has been able to achieve them to this day. Venerable Chaos, let's go take a look at the Second Peak."

Lin Yuan nodded without lingering.

The two then flew towards the second peak, the third peak...

When Lin Yuan stepped onto the fourth peak...

hum!

The dark red mountain peaks seemed to come alive, the flame patterns on their surfaces glowing faintly, and an ancient and fiery aura emanating from the depths of the earth.

"This is..." Before Venerable Liuyan could finish speaking, a sudden change occurred!

"Boom—!"

The entire fourth peak shook violently.

The dark red rocks on the mountain's surface cracked inch by inch, and countless golden rays of light shot out from the cracks, dyeing the entire sky a golden-red color.

"What?"

Venerable Liuyan stared wide-eyed at the scene before him in disbelief.

The tremors are intensifying.

Centered on the fourth peak, an invisible force spread out, repelling all the inheritors on the mountain, including Venerable Liuyan.

"What happened?"

"The mountain shook!"

"A treasure! A treasure has been discovered!"

"The fourth treasure! The fourth-ranked treasure!"

The entire treasure trove instantly erupted in excitement.

Countless inheritors flocked from all directions, their eyes all focused on the fourth peak.

They saw Venerable Liuyan and more than a dozen other inheritors being teleported out by the power of the Five-Colored Aurora Lake, while only one figure remained on the mountaintop.

"It's a human! That human!"

"It's the Chaos Venerable! He triggered the fourth treasure!"

Exclamations and murmurs mingled together.

The Venerable Liuyan, who had been teleported outside the mountain peak, finally realized what was happening.

"Chaos... He has opened the fourth treasure?" Venerable Liuyan murmured to himself, his eyes filled with shock and envy.

But he quickly adjusted his mindset, a genuine smile appearing on his face: "Great! Excellent! Our human race has gained another great opportunity!"

Inside the mountain peak.

Lin Yuan stood alone on the trembling mountaintop, sensing the changes in the surrounding space.

The power of the Five-Colored Aurora Lake has completely sealed off this place, isolating it from all outside sounds and sights, making it a completely independent space.

"I never expected that I would actually trigger the treasure." Lin Yuan was quite surprised.

He originally came just to try his luck and didn't have high hopes. After all, the conditions for opening various treasures in the treasure land are very different. It's not that the stronger you are, the greater your chances. Many of them, like Luo Feng's 106th Peak Treasure, can only be opened by the Realm Lord.

"boom--"

The ground ahead cracked open, and a crimson crystal, a thousand meters high, slowly rose up.

The outline of a ring can be vaguely seen inside.

Once the crystal has fully risen, fine cracks begin to appear on its surface.

"Click...click..."

The cracks spread, and eventually the entire crystal shattered with a crash, turning into countless points of light that dissipated into nothingness.

At the center of the light, a fiery red world ring floated silently.

Lin Yuan used his divine power to quickly imprint his mark on the ring, and then his divine sense penetrated into it.

Within the vast space of the ring, a miniature palace, entirely crimson gold, floated in the air.

Its surface is engraved with secret patterns of flame and space, which are constantly flowing, as if they were alive.

"A palace-type treasure?" Lin Yuan's eyes lit up.

He reached out and beckoned, and the miniature palace flew into his palm.

Lin Yuan infused a wisp of divine power into it, and the process went surprisingly smoothly. Almost the instant his divine power touched the palace, the recognition of the palace as its master was completed.

At the same time, a flood of information rushed into my mind.

"This treasure is called the Flame Sky Palace, a top-tier palace-type treasure with five core functions:"

One is that the fiery hell cannot be broken.

Once activated, the palace's surface will display a complete fire-space fusion divine rune, capable of weakening all material attacks and soul impacts to one ten-thousandth, enough to withstand the full force of the universe's strongest being for a short period.

The second is the technique of stacking flames and escaping into the sky.

Without the restrictions of top-tier domain-level or even stronger treasures, the temple can ignore the blockade and perform spatial jumps, with a single teleportation distance reaching 3000 light-years, which is about three times that of an ordinary universe lord.

The third is the incinerator.

It can transform the entire palace into a furnace, suppressing enemies within its fiery purgatory, where the fire of the law of fusion burns eternally, continuously refining the enemy's divine body and soul.

The fourth is the altar of the beast god.

The altar at the center of the temple is engraved with the mark of the Fire and Void Beast God. Comprehension here allows one to clearly sense the fusion trajectory of the laws of fire and void, which has a strong auxiliary effect on the inheritors of the Beast God's understanding of the fusion laws.

Note: To activate this temple, one must master at least the fifth level of the Fire and Sky Beast God's Way. To fully unleash its various powers, one must burn a massive amount of divine power. Usually, only a top-tier cosmic overlord level expert can use it freely.

Lin Yuan became increasingly alarmed as he looked at the document.

Top-tier palace-type treasure!

In the human race's treasure trove, treasures of this caliber are far more valuable than many top-tier supreme weapons, with an exchange price of at least several thousand treasure points. Moreover, they are often priceless, as few people are willing to exchange such life-saving treasures.

With the Flame Sky Palace, his ability to survive will leap to several levels. As long as he is not surrounded by multiple universe lords or encounters a super being with the most powerful treasure, he is confident that he can escape.

"This opportunity... is truly tremendous."

When he emerged from seclusion, he was still regretful that after reaching the top level of overlord, his treasures were not much of an advantage among strong people of the same level. He never expected to obtain a top-level treasure in the blink of an eye.

Lin Yuan took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement.

Just then, another stream of light flew out from the dissipating crystal and entered his sea of ​​consciousness.

That was a message from countless years ago.

"Those who come after me, by the time you hear these words, I should already be long gone..."
