Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 229 The Rock Lord

Although Yang Wu was not a mentalist, his mental power had also reached the ninth level of the universe level under the evolution of the nutrient tank.

Moreover, Yang Wu had mastered some of the soul techniques recorded in "Time and Space Notes." Although he wasn't an expert, he had mastered them all. So, he could easily deal with a ninth-level Constant Star.

Of course, the leader of the Blood-Clad Guards was a ninth-level cosmic-level being with a very strong will. Even with Yang Wu's illusionist skills, he still couldn't control him.

Seeing that the girl had stopped begging for mercy and instead looked at Yang Wu with fervent eyes, the leader of the Blood-Clad Guards, a mentalist, knew exactly what had happened.

He respectfully greeted Yang Wu, saying, "Sir, are you from the Temple of Immortality?"

As soon as Yang Wu made his move, the leader of the Blood-Clad Guards sensed Yang Wu's cultivation level; he was at the same peak of the Cloud Realm as Yang Wu.

Yet this peak Cloud Realm expert instantly killed the old man who was even stronger than him, as well as a large number of Cloud Realm and Sky Realm warriors.

Even a typical early-stage expert in their field might not be able to accomplish something like this in such a short time.

In the eyes of the Blood-Clad Guard leader, a Cloud-level expert capable of doing this could not possibly be cultivated anywhere other than the Immortal Temple.

Yang Wu did not answer the Blood-Clad Guard leader's question. He kept the man there simply to learn about the basic situation around the place where he had arrived.

Therefore, Yang Wu asked directly, "Tell me your identity!"

"grown ups……"

When questioned by Yang Wu, the leader of the Blood-Clad Guards did not hide anything and instead told Yang Wu everything he wanted to know.

The leader of the Bloodstained Guards was named Norwich, the son of Nob, the previous lord of the nearby Rock Territory. The Bloodstained Guards were Nob's most elite guard.

Just over two hundred years ago, Norb was poisoned and killed by Burns, the current lord of Rock Territory, while Norwich escaped Rock Territory under the protection of the Blood Guard.

What follows is the story of a nobleman's escape and path of revenge.

The Blood Guards are losing men as they are pursued by the Lord of Rock Territory, while Norwich's strength is also increasing. Breaking through from the Cloud Realm to the Domain Realm is undoubtedly a huge challenge.

Finally, after years of unsuccessful attempts to break through, and with the Blood Guards constantly dwindling in numbers, Norwich decided to take the risk and make a move against Burns' only daughter, Amina, the girl who is now under Yang Wu's control.

What happened next was what Yang Wu saw.

Norwich originally had no intention of harming Yang Wu, but Amina revealed the Blood Guard's identity, and in order to maintain secrecy, Norwich had no choice but to kill her to silence her.

But what he didn't expect was that he would encounter such a powerful figure as Yang Wu. In just a moment, Yang Wu killed everyone except him and Amina.

After listening to the words of the Blood-Clad Guard leader, Yang Wu was deeply moved.

If he hadn't intervened, Norwich would probably have already killed or captured the girl.

Unfortunately, just when he was about to succeed, he encountered Yang Wu.

"Norwich!" Yang Wu looked at the Blood-Clad Guard leader before him and asked with some curiosity, "I thwarted your revenge plan, but you don't seem too disappointed. Why is that?"

"grown ups!"

Norwich respectfully replied, "It is indeed fitting that we deserve to die for attacking you, sir. However, the cause of this matter is that of Amina. Your attack on her guards is likely for the same reason!"

"Hmm!" Yang Wu nodded slightly.

Norwich was not under Yang Wu's soul control, yet he told Yang Wu everything he knew, so Yang Wu did not treat him coldly.

"As the only daughter of Burns, your lord has now killed her guards and taken control of their souls. Burns will be furious when he finds out. Therefore, you and Burns will certainly not be able to get along peacefully in the future."

Norwich slowly said, "Even though I've worked hard to cultivate since my father's death, breaking through to the Domain level is still a long way off. The Blood-Clad Guards who protected me when I escaped originally numbered dozens at the Cloud-level and hundreds at the peak of the Sky-level, but today, the last ten Blood-Clad Guards have all perished. My hope of revenge is dwindling!"

"But you, sir, are the most terrifying Cloud-level expert I have ever seen! Perhaps you are not yet a match for Burns, but once you break through to the Domain level, you will surely be able to kill him!"

After hearing Norwich's words, Yang Wu suddenly realized that the other party regarded him as the hope for revenge!

However, Yang Wu didn't care too much. It was only at the mid-stage of the Domain level. Even without the auxiliary metal life form, Yang Wu was very confident in killing his opponent.

"Do you have any Blood Crystals on you?" Yang Wu continued to ask.

Generally speaking, in the Blood Luo World, a domain-level powerhouse who can be crowned a lord must have fused with at least one Blood Luo Crystal. Therefore, most lords possess additional Blood Luo Crystals for fusion.

Norwich was the son of the previous lord of Rock Territory, and it is highly likely that he was carrying Blood Crystals when he fled.

Upon hearing Yang Wu's question, Norwich hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he took out a silver, spherical crystal from his storage space.

Norwich applied slight pressure with his palm, and the surface of the silver spherical crystal immediately began to crack, quickly revealing the Blood Crystal encased within.

This is a long-faceted crystal in the shape of a triangular prism, entirely blood red, slightly transparent, and faintly emitting an invisible fluctuation, somewhat similar to a heartbeat, wave after wave.

"My lord, this is the Blood Crystal!" Norwich said respectfully as he handed the blood-red crystal to Yang Wu.

This Blood Crystal is incredibly precious, and if possible, Norwich would certainly not want to give it away. But now his life and death are in Yang Wu's hands, so he naturally dares not continue to hide it.

"Is this the crystallization of the Beast God's blood?" Yang Wu reached out and took the Blood Crystal, feeling its strange fluctuations.

With a flick of his hand, Yang Wu had already stored the Blood Crystal in his spatial ring. Then, with a thought, an invisible mental force instantly invaded Norwich's sea of ​​consciousness, knocking him unconscious.

Although Yang Wu didn't possess the skills to cultivate a mental master, it depended on who he was compared to. Against an ordinary universe-level powerhouse like Norwich, while Yang Wu couldn't control their souls, knocking them unconscious wouldn't be difficult.

Next, Yang Wu learned some more information from Amina, whom he had already taken control of.

Yang Wu had completely taken control of the other party, which was the most direct and effective method. The other party answered all his questions truthfully without any concealment.

During the questioning, Yang Wu also kept comparing the information provided by Norwich with the information provided by Norwich.

Although there were subtle differences between what Emina said and the information provided by Norwich due to their different positions, they were generally consistent.

Moreover, Yang Wu also learned from Amina that her father aspired to become a Blood Warrior, so in addition to the Blood Crystal he had already fused with, he had at least two more Blood Crystals in his possession.

Burns even promised his only daughter, Amina, that once she broke through to the Cloud Realm, he would give her a Blood Crystal to fuse with.

"Blood Crystal?"

Yang Wu pondered to himself. Now that he had come to the Blood Luo Continent and knew the wonders of Blood Luo Crystals, he naturally wanted to acquire a large quantity of them.

Now that he knew the Rock Lord possessed the Blood Crystal, he certainly wouldn't let it slip by.

Thinking of this, Yang Wu immediately poured a large amount of mental energy into Amina's sea of ​​consciousness, completely shattering her soul.

Amina's memories are filled with experiences of taking pleasure in the lives of ordinary people, which Yang Wu dislikes. Moreover, she had previously planned to drag Yang Wu into the vortex, so Yang Wu certainly wouldn't spare her life.

As for Norwich, Yang Wu was moved by Norwich's experience of revenge and ultimately decided to keep him.

I'll resume normal updates tomorrow. I still have some things to do today, but there will be at least one more update tonight.
