Swallowing the Stars: Start with an Enlightenment System

Click to begin your wondrous journey in "Swallowing the Stars: Starting with an Enlightenment System".

In the central square, a thousand geniuses gathered together.

However, only two hundred people were actually qualified to participate, while the remaining eight hundred could only stand on the sidelines and act as spectators.

Among the crowd, Baiyuan's gaze fell on his opponent.

The man was wearing golden armor and holding a slender iron rod; it was none other than "Purple Bamboo," who had previously caught his attention.

Despite being ranked outside the top 6,000 in the Trial Tower, he narrowly defeated three strong individuals ranked within the top 3,000. Everyone could see that this guy was hiding his true strength.

Now, Baiyuan finally has the opportunity to see for himself just how much he has hidden.

Zizhu was also watching Baiyuan, his expression extremely calm, but his eyes revealed an undisguised fighting spirit.

"Ranked first in the Trial Tower, you do have some skill."

He paused, then a slight smile appeared on his lips:

"But I will prove with my strength that I am the strongest."

Upon hearing this, Baiyuan couldn't help but shake his head.

This sounds familiar; it seems like every self-proclaimed genius who hides their true strength starts with something similar.

"Anyone can talk big. Let me see what you're really capable of."

Zizhu did not speak again.

The next moment, his aura suddenly surged, and the Wood Domain burst forth, instantly enveloping the surrounding area with emerald green light.

At the same time, the power of the Law of Wood also erupted, and within the boundless life force lay a sharp killing intent.

Among the eight hundred spectators, many showed slight changes in expression.

This one move alone has already surpassed the vast majority of people present.

However, this is not the end.

The moment the Wood Domain unfolded, another domain followed closely behind.

"It's the Domain of Wind! And it's reached the eighth level!" someone exclaimed.

Although the Wind Domain only has eight levels and the Wind Law has only scratched the surface, not yet truly crossed the threshold, this is not the point.

The key point is that the two realms have actually merged together!

The two realms intertwine and intertwine, subtly forming a completely new field.

"Domain integration?"

Baiyuan raised an eyebrow, a hint of confusion in his voice: "Is this your source of confidence?"

Not only was he confused, but the geniuses watching from the sidelines, and even those immortal powerhouses, also had a hint of puzzlement in their eyes.

In terms of domain integration, Baiyuan's performance in the Trial Tower is remarkable. His integration level is far superior to Zizhu's.

To think that this can defeat Baiyuan is wishful thinking.

"Hmph." Zizhu chuckled lightly, "You'll find out soon enough."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly moved.

The slender iron rod shot out through the air, heading straight for Baiyuan.

His staff technique was fierce, and every strike was incredibly precise. Just as he had demonstrated before, it was more like a needle technique than a staff technique, breaking through the surface with a single point, and its power was quite extraordinary.

With the aid of the Wind Domain, his speed was astonishing, his figure elusive, and his trajectory difficult to track.

Many of the eight hundred spectators had their expressions change drastically.

This guy is much stronger than they imagined.

However, Baiyuan remained calm and unhurried.

He moved nimbly, easily dodging Zizhu's attacks, and even had time to observe the trajectory of her attacks.

Since the Virtual Universe Company matched Zizhu to him, it means one thing: in the system's judgment, Zizhu does not have the strength to enter the top 100.

The Virtual Universe Company's system is infallible; this is not boasting, but has been proven over countless epochs.

As long as I perform normally, there is almost no chance of losing this match.

boom!

Baiyuan suddenly moved, his battle blade carrying the immense power of the Golden and Water Domains, slashing directly at Zizhu.

The attack came without warning, causing Zizhu's expression to change drastically.

He instantly devised several possible countermeasures in his mind: dodge, block, use the opponent's force to retreat, attack against attack... but no matter which one he devised, the result was that he would be at a disadvantage.

Although Baiyuan's speed is not as fast as his own, who possesses the Wind Domain, it is not far off. If he wants to create distance by speed, his opponent can easily chase after him and fight.

At that point, if the enemy gains control of the battle rhythm, the situation will only worsen.

Then we'll just have to take it on.

Zizhu gritted his teeth, raised his stick, and met the attack.

His plan was clear: use the momentum of flying backwards to reorganize the offensive by leveraging the mobility of the wind domain.

As long as he doesn't engage in a direct confrontation, given his speed and attacking power, he might still have a chance.

However, the moment the sword clashed with the iron rod, he regretted it.

That force was terrifyingly cunning.

It wasn't a simple brute force impact, but rather like an undercurrent, it surged along the blade into his arm, violently shaking every inch of his muscles and every bone.

That force was so subtle and cunning that he had no way to deflect it, let alone use it to fly backward. He almost lost his grip on the iron rod.

Zizhu staggered backward, his entire arm numb, a tearing pain shooting through his hand. He looked up in disbelief at the figure standing with a knife in his hand.

"How could this be... your control over your physical strength is terrifying!"

Baiyuan pursed his lips, his face full of speechlessness.

"Why do you think my swordsmanship is so strong? How could I achieve that without ultimate control over power?"

The Zizhu in front of me is indeed quite strong, and he has also come up with some fancy tricks in domain fusion, but his arrogant attitude is really speechless.

They're an opponent, after all, and the top player in the Trial Tower. Don't they even bother to research the basic information?

As far as Bai Yuan knew, as the number one ranked contestant in the Trial Tower, all his data had already been thoroughly analyzed by the immortal powerhouses from those universe nations and the other contestants.

The amplitude of power exertion, domain level, understanding of laws, combat style... almost everything that could be dug out has been dug out.

But this Zizhu knew nothing about it.

Baiyuan couldn't tell for a moment whether this was overconfidence or a complete lack of respect for him.

At the same time, the thirteen divine generals turned their heads to look at an immortal powerhouse dressed in white beside them, and spoke with a half-smile:

"Kree, you didn't tell your space kingdom's genius at all, did you?"

The white-robed immortal's face stiffened, then he let out a cold laugh.

"Heh, he's a peerless genius, why would he need my help?"

These words were spoken in a sarcastic tone, and the dissatisfaction in the tone was almost overflowing.

Upon hearing this, the thirteen generals' smiles deepened.

The immortal powerhouses present were well aware of the relationship between these two. Kree was known for his volatile temper, while Zizhu was also an extremely arrogant genius. The two were completely at odds.

Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding...

Under Baiyuan's relentless attacks, Zizhu was forced to retreat step by step.

His tiger's mouth was already torn open, and blood slid down the iron rod and dripped onto the ground. His breathing was already disordered, and his steps were unsteady. Every block was like walking a tightrope on the edge of a cliff, teetering on the brink of collapse.

But Baiyuan's attacks grew increasingly fierce, one strike after another, each faster than the last, the Golden and Water Domains constantly flowing beneath his feet.

Zizhu had never experienced such despair.

He once thought he had hidden himself well enough, that his fusion of domains was enough to amaze everyone, and that as long as he went all out, the top ten in the Genius Battle would be no problem at all.

But now he realizes that his so-called "hidden strength" is utterly insignificant in the face of true powerhouses.

In terms of amplitude of force exertion, he is not as good as Baiyuan.

In terms of understanding the laws, he is not as good as Baiyuan.

In terms of secret techniques, he is inferior to Baiyuan.

As for combat skills, he is even worse!

puff!

With the final strike, Zizhu's iron rod slipped from her hand, and she knelt on one knee, utterly defeated.
