Swallowing the Stars: The Birth of a Cosmic God King

Amid the discussion, some people turned their attention to the bone spurs.

Since being instantly killed by Yan Ning with a single punch, Bone Spur has been standing silently in the corner of the hall.

He wasn't unaware of the rumors.

"A fake nine-star," "A nine-star only achieved by selling face," "His actual strength is at most eight-star"—each sentence felt like a needle pricking his bones.

His bone spurs, while perhaps a little watery, are by no means useless!

That skeleton, a peak ninth-tier Hengxing-level expert, was something he brought out of the ruins after surviving countless near-death experiences; it was something he obtained at the cost of his life!

He underestimated his opponent, he admitted.

But that's because he didn't expect a human with a ninth-grade bloodline to have such a strong physical body!

If we give him another chance... it's not impossible!

Bone Spur raised its head, its eyes flashing with a ghostly light.

He walked to the center of the hall, turned on the public channel, and spoke in a sharp, angry voice:

"Yan Ning! I know you can hear me!"

"Log off to avoid battle? You think you can escape it?"

"I, Bone Spur, hereby formally declare war on you to the death!"

"Win against me, and you get one million Qianwu coins!"

"Even if I lose to you, I won't take your life. You'll have to admit in front of everyone that you beat me by luck!"

"Do you dare?!"

The hall fell silent instantly.

A desperate battle.

That's the most brutal mode in the final battle space—no rules, no limits, a fight to the death!

The loser will not only lose stars, but will also be recorded as a "death match loser" in the virtual universe, which will have a great impact on their future development.

One million Qianwu coins, according to the exchange rate, are equivalent to 10 billion Heitan coins.

For an ordinary martial artist, this is a huge sum of money.

But for Bone Spur, he wasn't gambling with money, he was gambling with his dignity.

"The Bone Spurs have launched a deathmatch! One million Qianwu coins!"

"He's in a hurry, but to be honest, even though the bone spurs are mostly water, he'll definitely fight desperately in deathmatch mode."

The true power of that celestial-level skeleton can only be fully unleashed in a death match.

"Will Yan Ning dare to accept?"

"Everyone else is offline, how can I answer?"

"Let's wait and see when it goes online. If it never goes online, that'll be interesting."

Someone muttered under their breath, "Speaking of which, who was it that said bone spurs were counterfeit products in the first place? They've made things so difficult for them now."

"I think you were the one who said it first?"

"Bullshit! I was just repeating what they said; they started with that water spirit..."

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. The question now is, when exactly will Yan Ning go online?"

If he really avoids battle, then his level two elite potential rating will likely be reduced.

The crowd buzzed with discussion, their eyes darting back and forth between the list and the bone spurs.

Yan Ning's profile picture remains gray and black.

......

in the real world.

A massive cargo ship is docked in the shipyard of Blacktan.

The hatch opened.

Components of a Class B planetary defense system, five peak ninth-tier spirit master slaves of the Constant Star level, 10,100 slaves, and mountains of resources were neatly stacked in the cargo hold.

Moka Li rubbed his hands together, his face beaming with smiles: "Mr. Yan, all the goods have been inventoried. Would you like to decide whether to ship them back to Blue Star first, or…?"

"First transport."

"The sooner the better."

He glanced at the personal terminal on his wrist.

In the virtual universe, Bone Spurs has already completed more than a dozen deathmatch challenges.

"One million Qianwu coins?"

Not urgent.

Waiting for the goods to be shipped, for the defense system to be installed, and for him to finish his work.

then.

He will be online.

One punch.

Collect another million!

Ideally, by then, the bone spurs wouldn't have been eliminated by other emerging geniuses.

......

Three months later.

On the outskirts of the blue galaxy, a massive cargo ship silently exited warp drive.

Yan Ning stood on the bridge, looking at the familiar blue planet through the porthole.

Three months ago.

He left with a legacy of three million cosmic coins and a heart full of ambition.

Three months later.

He returned with resources and protective power sufficient to change the fate of an entire civilization.

Yan Ning did not choose the large-scale, indiscriminate approach to reform.

With his current wealth, the growth of his two avatars, the Flame God Clan and the Golden Horned Beast, alone is already equivalent to two gold-devouring beasts.

Not to mention the massive resources needed to break through to the star level and the cosmic level in the future.

and so.

At this stage, Yan Ning's strategy is to help Blue Ocean achieve the leap from 0 to 1, rather than the leap from 1 to 100.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; give a man a fish and you feed him for a lifetime.

It's better to teach someone how to fish than to teach them how to fish.

What he needs to do is water, fertilize, and loosen the soil around the seed of azure, so that it can grow into a towering tree on its own.

"Initiate delivery."

......

Azure Star, War God Palace.

An emergency joint meeting was convened.

The councilors of all 25 base cities, the six inspectors, and the core members of the War God Palace were all present.

Yan Ning did not attend the meeting.

Honghuang sat next to Qin Mufeng.

The two looked at the long list of supplies on the holographic screen, their pupils trembling slightly.

……

The list is long.

I watched for a full ten minutes, and I still haven't finished.

"These…"

The voice of the Primordial One was somewhat hoarse, "How many years will these resources be enough for Azure?"

Qin Mufeng took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart: "If distributed fairly, it will last at least twenty years!"

"Twenty years..."

"Twenty years from now, Azure's martial arts system will be completely transformed!"

No one spoke in the council chamber.

Everyone knows what these resources mean.

It's not about becoming stronger or anything like that, but a true upgrade of civilization!

Starting today.

Azure is no longer a martial arts wasteland, but a seed of interstellar civilization with a systematic cultivation system, a stable supply of resources, and top-notch protective forces!

"Where is Inspector Yan?" someone asked.

"He is in Nanjiang."

"He said that we should make the decisions about Azure, and he would only be responsible for providing resources."

Silence fell over the council chamber once again.

then.

Inspector Lu stood up, his voice solemn:

"I propose that the Supreme Blue Alliance Conference formally confer upon Yan Ning the title of 'Blue Guardian,' a lifetime appointment that can be passed down through generations."

All resource allocation plans must be approved by him or his designated agent before they can be implemented.

I second that.

I second that.

I second that.

Passed unanimously.

In the days that followed, Azure entered the "Yan Ning era".
