Swallowing the Stars: The Birth of a Cosmic God King

......

Sheng Hai Wilderness.

The heartland of the animal herd.

The earth trembled violently amidst the roar of the surging beast tide.

Hundreds of thousands of monsters surged in from all directions like a gray torrent, completely surrounding the abandoned city.

In the sky.

The flying monster, with a wingspan of over twenty meters, blocked out the sunlight and cast large, moving shadows on the ground.

In the center of this shadow, a human figure is slowly walking forward.

Yan Ning.

Sword in hand.

The 196 blades of the curved blade disc floated around him, like a silver river encircling his body.

The tendrils of the Moyun Vine had spread out from his collar, wrapping around his arms and torso, their golden patterns shimmering.

His steps were neither fast nor slow, and with each step he took, several monsters fell to the ground.

Wherever the blade passed, beast blood rained down, and severed limbs flew everywhere.

No monster could get within ten meters of him.

Beast General?

A knife.

Lord?

It's one cut too!

Defense, scales, and innate abilities are all a joke in the face of the second move of the Nine Blades of Meteorite.

A secret technique of the Eternal Star level.

Even if Yan Ning only mastered the basics, it was enough to crush these native monsters that had never even seen the universe before!

......

at the same time.

Ten miles away.

Another battlefield.

The golden-horned behemoth's clone rampaged through the horde of beasts.

Its size is only a little over two meters long, making it appear "small" in front of lord-level monsters that are often over ten meters long.

But the oppressive aura emanating from the depths of its bloodline instilled fear in all the monsters that approached it.

That is the absolute dominance between predator and prey, etched into their genes!

An S-class lord swooped down from the sky, its shriek echoing, its claws tearing through the air as it headed straight for the golden-horned behemoth's head.

The golden-horned behemoth didn't even slow down.

flapping wings.

Take off!

The hooves drew a golden arc.

S-rank lord, dead!

The body, split in two, fell from the sky, its blood gushing out like a torrential downpour.

The golden-horned behemoth continued its charge.

With a sweep of its massive tail, dozens of beast generals were instantly smashed into a bloody pulp.

The golden markings on the unicorn shone, and a beam of light shot out, carving a scorched furrow tens of meters long through the dense herd of beasts in front of it.

In just over ten minutes.

The earth has been dyed red.

Blood flows into a river.

......

Shenghai Base City.

Operations command center.

The image on the holographic screen finally stabilized somewhat.

The antimagnetic drone shakily passed through the interference zone and flew over the battlefield.

The moment the video feed returned, the entire command center fell into a deathly silence.

Devastated.

Blood and gore were everywhere.

The abandoned high-rise building was half collapsed, and the broken walls were covered with the remains of monsters.

On the ground, corpses of all sizes were piled up like mountains, and blood flowed into streams that meandered through the ruins.

In the center of this chaotic battlefield, the figure continued to advance.

Blood was still dripping from the blood groove on the sword.

The blade was still spinning.

The tendrils of the Moyun Vine greedily devoured the life essence from each corpse, and the golden veins grew brighter and brighter.

"This...this was really killed by one person?"

Someone was muttering to themselves, their voice trembling.

No one answered.

Because nobody knows the answer.

Just then.

The screen suddenly shook violently.

The drone's camera automatically turned to the ground; something was moving!

boom!

The earth exploded.

A thick tentacle suddenly burst out of the ground, more than two meters in diameter, its surface covered with dark red scales and densely packed suckers.

The tentacles moved at an astonishing speed, breaking through the ground and climbing to a height of tens of meters in the blink of an eye.

It climbed up the wall of an abandoned building next door, making the whole building creak and groan, with concrete fragments falling down.

Followed by.

The second one.

The third one.

The fourth one!

Four tentacles burst from the ground simultaneously from four directions, like four pillars supporting the sky, enclosing the area where Yan Ning was located in a cage.

A sense of oppression.

A suffocating sense of oppression.

Even through the screen, everyone in the command center felt that chilling atmosphere.

King-level monster.

Moreover, it's the most infamous one in the Sheng Hai Sea, the Deep Sea Demon Octopus!

Planetary level three.

It's a level stronger than the white king beast that Yan Ning killed during Operation Frozen.

The planetary-level powerhouse who was stationed in Shenghai once fought against it and was defeated within three moves, almost not returning alive.

"It's over..."

Fang Ping's face turned deathly pale, his lips trembling. "Yan Ning... he hasn't turned around yet!"

On the screen, Yan Ning was facing away from the tentacle, seemingly entangled by the beasts in front of him, completely unaware of the deadly threat behind him.

After the tentacles reached their highest point, they suddenly stopped.

then.

Like a spring compressed to its limit suddenly released, it slammed down on Yan Ning's back at a speed almost imperceptible to the naked eye!

"Hide!"

Someone shouted from inside the command center.

But it was too late.

The tentacles were moving too fast.

Just as everyone was getting close, it crashed down less than ten meters behind Yan Ning.

ten meters.

For a planetary-level powerhouse, it's just a fraction of a second.

However, the speed of the tentacles is also measured in milliseconds.

In that instant.

Zhao Zhengguo closed his eyes.

Fang Ping clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh.

Qin Mufeng, far away in Kunlun Base City, dropped his teacup, which shattered on the ground, scattering shards everywhere.

Inside the council hall of the Ares Palace.

Everyone held their breath.

Inspector Lu's hand, holding the teacup, remained suspended in mid-air, motionless.

Inspector Liu leaned forward slightly, his pupils constricting.

Those war gods who were just discussing amongst themselves were now all silent.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the holographic screen.

Staring at that figure that hadn't turned around yet.

Staring at the tentacle that had already been smashed down.

then.

They saw it.

Yan Ning moved, but he didn't turn around or try to avoid it; even his mother didn't turn around.

Yan Ning simply turned his body slightly to the side, and with a seemingly slow but actually extremely fast movement, he slashed his battle blade diagonally upwards!

A flash of blade light appeared!

A silvery-white blade of light extended from the tip of the blade, drawing a graceful arc in the air.

The curve is very thin.

So fine that it's almost invisible.

But the moment it swept across the tentacle, the two-meter-diameter tentacle was neatly sliced ​​open like tofu.

There was no explosion.

There was no roar.

With only a soft "hiss," the tentacle split in two, revealing the still-wriggling muscle fibers and gushing dark red fluid inside.

The first half of the tentacle lost its support and fell helplessly, crashing onto the ruins and raising a cloud of dust.

The latter half of the tentacle twitched violently before abruptly retracting into the ground.

A agonizing roar echoed from the depths of the earth.

A knife.

Just one cut!

A king-level monster of the third tier of planetary level, the most fearsome existence in the Sheng Hai Sea, a being that even planetary level powerhouses could only flee from.

He couldn't even withstand a single blow from Yan Ning.

The king-level monster, which had been looming over Sheng Hai, a base city of 300 million people, for many years, was easily annihilated by Yan Ning with a single strike!

Deep-sea Demon Octopus, die!
