Swallowing the Stars: I Have a Primordial Dao Seed

In outer space of World One, aboard a luxurious spaceship, a group of scions of a powerful faction were watching a match while enjoying fine wine and food.

Most of these young noblemen were core members of the immortal forces, and the leader was a member of the royal family of the Zichen Universe Kingdom.

"Haha, the first place goes to the star region directly under our Zichen Universe Kingdom!" A richly dressed man laughed loudly, holding a wine glass.

"That's right, Your Highness. Your universe has many geniuses, so it's only natural that you won first place," a man wearing unusual jewelry replied with a smile.

"Guka, your family is quite impressive. Three of your members are in the top 1,000, and one is even in the top 100." A richly dressed member of the royal family looked at a young man with admiration in his voice.

"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness. How could our family compare to the Kingdom of the Universe?" Gu Ka quickly replied modestly, though he was secretly pleased with himself.

……

On another luxurious spaceship in World One.

More than a dozen immortal gods were sitting here, watching the battle and chatting about some important events in the current universe.

"Lord Wanrenhou, how long will the Yunyan Secret Realm remain open?" An immortal military lord sitting at the end asked a marquis-level immortal sitting in the main seat about the situation of the Yunyan Secret Realm.

"As far as I know, the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance has already taken over, and it's estimated that it will remain open to the public for about two more eras. Those who want to go should hurry," Wan Renhou, sitting in the main seat, replied.

"We are truly grateful to His Majesty for clearing out the dangerous creatures inside and for allowing us to explore the Cloud Rock Secret Realm, a low-risk secret realm," exclaimed a Marquis-level Immortal at the lower seat.

"That's right, Your Majesty is so kind. Many realm lords in the Cloud Rock Secret Realm have made a fortune. I've only been there three times, and that's enough for me to buy a new set of equipment," another Marquis Immortal chimed in.

"Silverwing Marquis, your family is doing well this time. Your family's boy is now in first place in World 89." After glancing at the message he had just received, Marquis Wanren, sitting in the main seat, said to an immortal god with wings on his back sitting in the first seat on the right.

At this moment, Marquis Silverwing was also reading the message sent by his subordinate. He replied with a look of satisfaction, "I just received the news. Mu Ji is indeed a good guy. Our family has finally produced a genius this time."

In the sixty-sixth world zone, five days passed in the blink of an eye, and Zhou Yuan continued to wander freely in the world.

As time goes by, the alien race's strength doubles every day. Now, the alien race is equivalent to sixteen times the peak of the ninth rank in an ordinary universe, but it is still no match for Zhou Yuan.

During this time, Zhou Yuan also encountered many contestants who were hunting alien races.

He usually chose to ignore them and simply skip over them. But there were always some fools who, either wanting to steal his points or to test his strength, challenged him.

Zhou Yuan showed no mercy to these people. With a casual slash, only a handful of the participants he encountered could withstand his blow and survive.

Gradually, the title "God of Blades" spread throughout World Sixty-Six. Whenever Zhou Yuan was mentioned, the contestants would show expressions of awe, and no one dared to provoke him easily.

Five days later, Zhou Yuan's points had reached 706821, and his ranking had risen to sixth place.

At this point, only 38431 people remained in World 66, with an elimination rate exceeding 95%.

More and more participants are starting to form teams and cooperate to hunt down alien races and avoid being surrounded.

Of course, for truly confident and powerful individuals, teaming up is unnecessary. After all, for a strong individual, the speed at which they gain points depends on how quickly they encounter other races.

The powerful Zhou Yuan naturally wouldn't team up; he swept through the enemy lines alone with just his sword.

"Have you gathered any information on Zhou Yuan from World 66?" In a luxurious spaceship in World 1, Huanmeng Hou, the intelligence-gathering official of the Zichen Universe Kingdom, asked the World Lord below. "His current displayed strength shows that he has a deep understanding of the Earth Origin Law. He has a chance to advance to the final battle."

"My lord, Zhou Yuan was born on Soka Star in the Gulfstream Galaxy, which is directly under our Universe Kingdom. He was only at the Planetary level in the last Genius Battle. He comprehended a domain when he was at the Eternal level, and then broke through to the Universe level. He has been to the Cloud Rock Secret Realm.

After leaving the secret realm, he resided on Nan Yun Star for a period of time. His record indicates he was a fifth-tier Domain Lord, and had already reached a level recognized by the fundamental laws of earth. "A Realm Lord-level expert bowed before the Dream Marquis and replied."

"After that, he entered the Cloud Rock Secret Realm again, and there is no record of him coming out. After he entered the Cloud Rock Secret Realm, it was taken over by the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, and you need authorization to access the data from the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance."

"No need. Data retrieval isn't done through the same system; it requires the King's permission. The virtual universe won't make mistakes; he's definitely at the cosmic level. His fifth-tier Domain Lord aura must be concealed by a treasure." Marquis Huanmeng waved his hand, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes. "To gain the recognition of the Earth Origin Law at the cosmic level—that's absolutely genius. List him as a top contender and keep a close eye on him!"

"Also, keep an eye on the Wudi from World Thirty-Seven," said Dream Marquis, pointing to the second-ranked player in World Thirty-Seven in the intelligence report.

……

Zhou Yuan was unaware that he had been listed as a key target by the Zi Chen Universe Kingdom. At this moment, he was still immersed in the rhythm of hunting down alien races, his figure darting through the ruined world like a falcon, searching for his next prey.

He pushed off with his feet, leaping into the air and easily crossing a towering mountain range. Suddenly, a large number of alien races appeared ahead, besieging a group of over a hundred people.

A hint of excitement flashed in Zhou Yuan's eyes as he gripped the Broken Mountain Blade tightly.

"Perfect timing! I'll take care of you all in one go!" Before he finished speaking, Zhou Yuan's figure had already dashed into the alien race below the mountain like lightning.

"Whoosh—" Zhou Yuan suddenly swung the Broken Mountain Blade, and a tens of meters long earthen yellow blade aura instantly erupted, sweeping across like a surging tide.

The dozen or so demonic bulls at the forefront didn't even have time to scream before they were cleaved in two by the blade's energy, their black blood splattering all over the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yuan flipped his wrist, and the Broken Mountain Blade swung like a windmill, with countless blade lights pouring out from the blade and spreading in all directions.

The sword energy crisscrossed, each blade containing the power of the fundamental law of earth. When it struck the alien race, it either cleaved them in two or shattered their bones and muscles.

Zhou Yuan's figure weaved through the alien races, dodging all the attacks from the demonic bull demons. Every swing of his sword was incredibly precise, almost always fatal.

In less than a minute, tens of thousands of alien race members lay dead in pools of blood. The once bustling battlefield instantly fell silent, leaving only the heavy stench of blood in the air.

Of the hundreds of contestants who were surrounded, only a dozen or so remained. Covered in wounds and dressed in rags, they stood there, still shaken, staring at Zhou Yuan, who resembled a demon, their eyes filled with awe and fear.
