Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 227 Speculations Brought About by the Eclipse Palace

Yang Wu devoted himself wholeheartedly to cultivation, and three months passed in the blink of an eye.

"Your Highness Yang Wu, the spaceship is about to embark on a space shuttle journey back to the original universe!" The voice of a burly man with two dragon horns on his forehead rang in Yang Wu's ears.

At the same time, a countdown to the space travel began inside the spaceship.

Ten seconds later, the spaceship trembled slightly before returning to calm.

"Simulate the outdoor scene!" the burly man ordered directly.

The scenery around them instantly changed, revealing the void outside.

The outside world was shrouded in a thin mist, filled with various kinds of void dust and fragments. In the distance, however, stood an incomparably majestic palace suspended in the void.

"Your Highness!" The burly man pointed to a distant palace and said respectfully, "This palace is called the Heavenly Eclipse Palace. Some of our Virtual Universe Company's super beings reside there in seclusion, and it also oversees the Blood Luo Continent!"

"Hmm!" Yang Wu nodded slightly.

Yang Wu clearly knew more about the Heavenly Eclipse Palace than this burly man.

The master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace is one of the three top universe overlords of the human race. His status among the human race is enough to rank him among the top twenty-five.

Even if we look at the entire vast universe, there are definitely no more than a thousand people whose strength can surpass that of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master!

"Huh? The Lord of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace?" Yang Wu was suddenly stunned.

He suddenly remembered that in the original story, when Luo Feng had just become the Lord of the Galaxy, the Lord of Chaos City had said that the universe lords of the human race usually resided in important places within human territory, such as the Primal Secret Realm.

And now, the master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace is the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master; the master of Chaos City is the Chaos City Master.

So, are there Dragon Palaces or Desolate Temples outside of other secret realms?

Others may not know what these names mean, but Yang Wu, who is familiar with the original work, will definitely be able to recognize them!

In the original work, Luo Feng once obtained two great opportunities during a cosmic-level mission: the Blood Crystal was guarded by the top cosmic overlord, the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master, and the Demon Sound Mountain was also guarded by the Heavenly Feather King, a powerful figure with invincible strength.

Yang Wu originally didn't know how to find missions with great opportunities, but now that he thinks about it, this might be a good way.

If Yang Wu carefully studies the information about the corresponding mission realms, he might learn about information similar to that of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace.

If a secret realm is guarded by the Lord of the Universe, it will surely hold great opportunities.

However, it's too early to think about these things now. What Yang Wu needs to do now is to complete the task in the Blood Luo World!

"Your Highness, this is as far as I can take you!" The burly man standing beside Yang Wu continued, "We're not far from the Blood Luo Continent now. The rest of the journey will be up to you to take a spaceship!"

"I understand!" Yang Wu nodded and said.

The hatch opened immediately, and Yang Wu flew straight out!

boom!

With a thought, a silver-white triangular spaceship appeared in the void in front of Yang Wu.

This is Yang Wu's latest order of an E-class spaceship, which cost him a full three thousand Hunyuan units!

This spaceship has exceptional performance; even some newly ascended immortal powerhouses probably couldn't afford such an expensive spaceship.

The most crucial point is that this spaceship is even equipped with a powerful planet-destroying cannon, which, when fully activated, is comparable to a full-force attack from a peak Immortal Military Lord.

Such power, if it were to actually hit, would be enough to severely injure an ordinary immortal god. As for a realm lord-level expert, there would be absolutely no chance of survival.

"Red Flame, activate the spaceship's stealth function!" Yang Wu quickly flew into the spaceship.

"Yes, Master!"

The triangular spaceship's appearance rapidly changed until it disappeared completely from sight, then it sped off towards the Blood Continent at an astonishing speed.

At the same time, the large-scale detection system within the Heavenly Eclipse Palace, which covers the entire Blood Luo Continent, also recorded Yang Wu's spaceship model and sent it to some staff members responsible for killing the natives in the skies above the Blood Luo Continent.

In this way, Yang Wu's spaceship could fly freely over the Blood Luo Continent.

……

Two hours later, Yang Wu's incredibly fast spaceship was only a few thousand meters away from the highest cloud layer above the Blood Luo Continent.

Whoosh!

Yang Wu opened the hatch directly, flew out quickly, and put the spaceship into his spatial ring.

The eighteenth cloud layer, the highest point on the Blood Luo Continent, is the highest place that the natives of the Blood Luo world can fly to. If they fly any higher, they will be killed by the staff of the Virtual Universe Company.

Therefore, after entering the cloud layer, Yang Wu is very likely to encounter powerful figures from the Blood Luo World.

Yang Wu had just arrived in the Blood Luo World, and it was the time to keep a low profile, so he certainly couldn't continue traveling by spaceship.

After everything was ready, Yang Wu, dressed in dark gold armor and holding his specially made Po Jun Spear, plummeted rapidly under the incredibly powerful gravity of the Blood Luo Continent, just like any other martial artist commonly seen in the Blood Luo World.

As he fell, Yang Wu continued to observe the environment inside the Blood Continent.

"The gravity is about 1200 times that of Earth. Even the air has a powerful effect on the body's evolution. Although it can't compare to the environment in the Primal Secret Realm, it's still extremely amazing!"

Yang Wu thought to himself, "This environment is truly blessed. Even an ordinary person living here would probably need at least near-planetary level strength!"

"The information provided by the Virtual Universe Company is only a general overview, and the places Luo Feng encountered in the original story are merely the tip of the iceberg of the Blood Luo Continent!"

Yang Wu thought to himself, "Having just arrived here, I should first understand the specific situation before deciding how to proceed!"

Yang Wu's body was falling rapidly, but when he was less than 10,000 meters from the ground, he suddenly froze, and his speed immediately slowed down.

Yang Wu lowered his head and glanced down at the ancient mountain range and forest below, his eyes narrowing slightly.

……

Just a dozen kilometers away from Yang Wu, in the mountains and forests, two groups of people were engaged in a fierce battle.

One side consisted of about ten people, each wearing a helmet that covered their entire head, with only their eyes showing. Judging from their aura, they all possessed cosmic-level strength.

The other side had more people, and their leaders were a young girl at the peak of the Eternal Star level and an old man at the peak of the Universe level.

The others, all clad in standard armor, were under the old man's leadership, doing their utmost to protect the peak-level girl.

Although they were numerous, most of them were only at the Constant level. Under the attack of the other side's ten Universe-level powerhouses, a guard wearing standard armor was killed every now and then.

The girl of the Hengxing level kept trying to break through the encirclement under the old man's protection, but she was never able to do so.

"Brothers, let's finish this quickly!" the helmeted leader shouted telepathically to his many powerful subordinates.

"Haha, I understand!"

"Don't worry, big brother, they definitely won't escape!"

"Miss, these enemies all possess the strength of the Cloud Realm, and the two leaders have even reached the peak of the Cloud Realm. I'm afraid we can't hold out for much longer!" The old man beside the girl said anxiously as he forced his opponent back with a single strike.

As the girl of the Eternal Star level dodged the attacks, she constantly looked around and saw that her elite guards were falling one after another under the enemy's attacks.

The ground was littered with the mutilated corpses of the dead guards, while not a single enemy had fallen.

The young woman frowned, her eyes filled with anxiety: "Elder Mo, we must hold on! The fighting here is very loud; it might attract wild beasts or other powerful individuals, and then we'll have a chance to break through!"

"Yes, Miss!" the old man whom the girl called Old Mo replied in a deep voice.

Just then, Yang Wu slowly landed not far above the group of people.

The matter of the Lord of the Universe guarding this important place is discussed in Chapter 5 of Part 22 of the original text.
