Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 263 Movements from All Sides, Breakthrough

At the same time that Yang Wu passed through the Primal Tongtian Mountain, the Universe Venerables who had not yet left the Tongtian Bridge plane immediately received the news.

Compared to the Tongtian Bridge, the original Tongtian Mountain had a very high level of secrecy. Among the human race, only high-ranking individuals like the Cosmic Venerable could obtain accurate information.

"Just now, Yang Wu actually broke through the Primal Tongtian Mountain!" exclaimed a cosmic ruler with a vertical eye between his eyebrows.

"Yes, although comprehending the laws of the twelfth level of the Tongtian Bridge is one of the conditions for passing through the Primal Tongtian Mountain, which is of cosmic level, Yang Wu was able to pass through the Primal Tongtian Mountain so quickly, which also shows that he does not have any obvious weaknesses in other aspects!"

"Legend, this is legend!" A cosmic venerable figure, holding a strangely shaped wine jug, laughed heartily as he drank. "With such a genius emerging once again, our human race will surely become even stronger in the future!"

"A legend?" The Lord of the Yuan Chen Universe smiled and said, "Yes, I'm already looking forward to seeing how far Yang Wu will go in the future."

The Lord of the Yuan Chen Universe is one of the oldest cosmic rulers in human history, having lived through an incredibly long period of time. Although he only possesses the strength of a High-Level Venerable, he has witnessed the growth of countless great beings within the human race.

Even in the incredibly long history of the human race, those who can achieve a cultivation speed like Yang Wu's at the cosmic level are few and far between.

……

At the same time, news of Yang Wu's passage through the twelve levels of the Tongtian Bridge and the original Tongtian Mountain began to spread rapidly.

Although news of the original Tongtian Mountain only circulated among the upper echelons of the human race, news of the Tongtian Bridge plane was spreading rapidly.

Which of those immortal gods watching the battle could resist telling their friends about this earth-shattering news?

Therefore, in almost an hour, the news that Yang Wu, this peerless genius who had not yet participated in a single qualifying battle, had passed the twelfth level of the Tongtian Bridge spread like wildfire...

……

In the primordial universe, in the city of chaos.

The Lord of Chaos City, who was sitting cross-legged in Chaos City, suddenly opened his eyes.

His eyes seemed to contain the workings of the entire universe, and his whole being was like the endless laws governing the universe, with a vast aura permeating this desolate land.

"Yang Wu has only been away from Chaos City for less than a hundred years, yet he's managed to cross the Primal Heavenly Mountain. Given the talent he displayed in Chaos City, such a rate of progress is impossible even for a Black Warrior!"

"Yang Wu..."

"What secret does he hold? Is he truly blessed with unparalleled comprehension?"

"So be it. The secrets contained in the universe are endless; who could possibly know them all? It is enough to know that he is a member of my human race!"

"However, Long Xing has taken on a good disciple this time! If he's lucky, he might have a disciple who is a master of the universe, just like his junior brother!"

"Return to One!" the Chaos City Lord shouted calmly.

Immediately, a bald man wearing a fiery red robe appeared before the Lord of Chaos City.

This person is none other than the second disciple of the Chaos City Lord, the Venerable Guiyi, who possesses the strength of a cosmic overlord.

"Teacher!" The bald man appeared and respectfully bowed to the Lord of Chaos City.

The Lord of Chaos City looked at Venerable Guiyi with a slight smile and said, "Guiyi, I have something for you to do."

"Another unparalleled genius has emerged among our human race. I estimate he will soon break through to the Domain Lord level. During his time at the Domain Lord level, you must ensure his safety!"

"Disciple obeys!" Venerable Guiyi said respectfully.

This was the second time that Venerable Guiyi had received such an order.

According to the Virtual Universe Company's training program, the company's core geniuses are to be transferred to outside regions to wield significant power during the Domain Lord stage. This arrangement also reveals some of the inner thoughts of these geniuses.

When geniuses are sent out to roam, they are always surrounded by a guard. However, for a genius like Yang Wu, the protective force around him is far from sufficient.

Because the alien race would definitely go to enormous lengths to kill a genius like him. Therefore, additional protective forces would be needed.

However, Venerable Guiyi was also somewhat puzzled, so he respectfully asked, "Teacher, since Yang Wu's talent is so extraordinary, why don't you take him as your disciple?"

"Yang Wu has already become the disciple of the Dragon Lord!" the Chaos City Lord said calmly. "You may leave."

"This disciple takes his leave!" Venerable Guiyi said with a sudden realization.

After Venerable Guiyi departed, the Lord of Chaos City seemed to pierce through endless time and space, and sighed softly, "I hope that in the near future, my human race will have another pillar!"

……

At the same time, the mountainside of Thunder Island was also extremely lively, as all the senior executives of the Virtual Universe Company already knew the news that Yang Wu had broken through the Primal Tongtian Mountain.

"How much time has passed? Our human race has finally produced another genius who has conquered the Primal Heavenly Mountain! What's even more astonishing is that Yang Wu has only been gone from Chaos City for less than a hundred years!"

A tall, thin man with compound eyes, dressed in strange emerald-green armor, sat to one side, holding a glass of fruit wine. He clicked his tongue in amazement, saying, "I heard that when Yang Wu left, he analyzed the essence of the laws and was able to pass through the Primordial Heavenly Mountain. It seems he has already comprehended the entire essence of the laws of space!"

"Indeed, to comprehend the essence of all the laws of space—that's something even many peak-level Immortals at the Marquis level haven't been able to achieve!" Another bald man with green runes on his face exclaimed in agreement, "Nine Swords is truly fortunate! He only presided over one Peak Genius Battle, and yet he received such an astonishingly talented disciple!"

At this moment, a short man with green hair frowned and said, "Have you considered that Yang Wu's talent is so extraordinary that the alien races are probably already getting restless? What should we do after he breaks through to the Domain Lord level?"

The three cosmic venerables who are currently chatting are all members of the management team within the Virtual Universe Company.

If Yang Wu breaks through to the Domain Lord level, according to the company's internal regulations, he will be sent to a key position in the Universe Kingdom.

"Judging from the talent Yang Wu has shown, he will inevitably be targeted by the alien races for assassination. We'd better not follow the normal procedures. Why don't we just give him a key position in a department at headquarters?" suggested the short man with messy green hair.

"Haha... Boswa, we don't need to worry about such things!" The compound-eyed man smiled. "I'm sure the Chaos City Lord has already made meticulous arrangements. We just need to do our own job well!"

The silver-robed, bald Venerable One also laughed and said, "Indeed, with the Lord of Chaos City here, there's absolutely no need to worry about these things! Our human race only produces such a peerless genius once in countless years; how could he possibly be successfully assassinated by a powerful alien race?"

"That's true!" The short man nodded.

For super geniuses among humans, the greatest danger they face during their growth is assassination by other races.

However, the human race never deliberately hides the name of a genius.

Because the birth of a peerless genius cannot be hidden for long.

Even for a peerless genius, it might take at least thousands or tens of thousands of years of cultivation to grow into a powerful being. In such a long period of time, there is a high possibility that information will be leaked somewhere.

There are countless spies among the human race. Because of the existence of the virtual universe, many alien races send spies to infiltrate the human race, just so they can use the virtual universe to transmit messages at critical moments.

Moreover, to become a strong person, one cannot rely solely on secluded cultivation. Even the most outstanding genius must undergo the test of blood and fire before they can become a renowned powerhouse throughout the universe.

……

Original area, lecture hall number two.

Because Yang Wu had only just left, there were still quite a few geniuses from the Primal Secret Realm who had not yet departed.

For them, they are usually focused on their own cultivation, and most of the world lord members have already embarked on life-and-death adventures. Opportunities to gather together like this are not very frequent, so they naturally want to take this opportunity to chat with others.

Just then, a Primal Realm Lord-level member suddenly stood up and exclaimed in surprise, "Yang Wu, who just left, actually passed the twelfth level of the Bridge to Heaven!"

Normally, if this domain lord-level member were to shout, it would certainly cause dissatisfaction among others.

But now, nobody cares about this at all. Because most of them have already received the news that Yang Wu has passed the twelfth level of the Heavenly Bridge.

As for information about Tongtian Mountain, these people are far from having the authority to provide it!

"this……"

"This is truly unbelievable!"

"That's absolutely terrifying!"

In an instant, the entire lecture hall No. 2 was in an uproar.

Who has ever seen anything like this before!

If they hadn't all received accurate information, they probably would have thought someone was playing a joke on them.

After a long while.

The werewolf clan domain lord genius who had been discussing Yang Wu looked at his companion and teased, "Toka, you were just saying that Yang Wu couldn't possibly pass the tenth level, but in a short while, he directly passed the twelfth level!"

"Didn't you just agree with that too?" the lean man, Toka, sighed. "Yang Wu has passed the twelfth level of the Bridge to Heaven; it won't be long before he breaks through to the Domain Lord level. We're all doomed!"

Once Yang Wu breaks through, one more member of the Primordial Secret Realm's Domain Lord level will be relegated to the Primordial Secret Realm during the qualification battle, naturally increasing their pressure.

Upon hearing this news, the golden-armored youth, "Moro," was initially filled with boundless jealousy, but then his eyes lit up with delight.

Although he initially tried to scheme against Yang Wu after the Genius Battle, as the gap between him and Yang Wu widened, he realized that even though he was a genius who had passed the seventh level of the Tongtian Bridge in just a few hundred years, he was not qualified to be compared with Yang Wu.

But Moro wasn't stupid; on the contrary, he was quite clever.

Upon learning this news, he quickly thought of another problem.

"Haha... There's still a long time before the cosmic-level qualifying battle. Yang Wu might break through to the Domain Lord level before the battle, which would greatly increase my chances of staying in the Primordial Secret Realm! As long as I defeat Sima Yan, I can secure a spot!"

At this moment, Moro couldn't help but feel a little smug, while he completely disregarded Berlan, who had passed the seventh level of the Sky Bridge.

……

Within a spatial interlayer within the territory of the Wild Universe Kingdom lies a vast divine kingdom.

This magnificent divine kingdom is the headquarters of the Zerg, which has been lurking in human territory.

At the summit of the highest mountain in this divine realm stands a temple stretching 100,000 kilometers. Residing within this temple is the head of the Zerg infiltrator organization—an immortal-level Zerg queen.

"Master, Master!"

A figure in golden robes suddenly appeared inside the temple, shouting, "Master, important information! Important information!"

Roar!Roar!

Countless golden Zerg immortal warriors roared in fury.

"What information could possibly have caused you such a panic?" Upon hearing the golden-robed man's voice, a hazy figure flew out from the towering mother nest and asked softly.

Normally, the man in the golden robes would have bowed respectfully upon seeing the Queen Mother, but he couldn't care less now. He hurriedly said anxiously, "Master, we just received news that Yang Wu, the genius of the Virtual Universe Company, also known as No. 1, has just passed the twelfth level of the Bridge to Heaven!"

"The twelfth floor?" The Queen Mother's gentle voice vanished, replaced by an intensely chilling atmosphere.

"How much time has passed? This talent is even more astonishing than that 'Coty' we killed back then!"

"Send this message back to the clan immediately; we must eliminate him before he grows too powerful!"

……

On this day, news of Yang Wu passing through the twelfth level of the Tongtian Bridge was also relayed back by countless alien spies lurking among the human race.

A cosmic-level genius who left Chaos City less than a hundred years ago has passed through the twelfth level of the Bridge to Heaven.

The powerful figures behind these top clans are certainly aware of the significance behind this!

The three dominant races—the Zerg, the Demon Race, and the Mechanical Race—which live near human territory, are particularly wary of this.

With the talent Yang Wu has shown so far, he will most likely possess the strength of a cosmic overlord in the future!

A single cosmic overlord is capable of leading their race to survive in the universe, which is why they are called cosmic overlords.

The Golden Horned Clan, for example, within the territory of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, only became a vassal clan of humanity after the cosmic overlord "Hirodo" disappeared.

Therefore, we must kill it before it becomes truly powerful!

……

In the virtual world created by the Zerg.

Amidst endless clouds and mist, on a beautiful floating island, a group of beautiful insect queens with butterfly-like wings, bodies as white as crystal, and as soft as water, were frolicking among themselves.

In the very center of this floating island stands a colossal palace that appears to be carved from wood.

call!

A figure appeared out of thin air in front of the huge palace gate; it was a Zerg Queen of the Universe Venerable level.

The palace doors swung open, and the newly appeared Zerg Queen entered the palace without being stopped by the guards.

"Misty Dawn greets the Lord of Feathered Path."

The Zerg Queen bowed deeply in the hall, and on the throne in front of her sat a stunningly beautiful being who could captivate the souls of countless powerful beings; her entire body was shrouded in a hazy, colorful mist.

"What is it?" The voice was clear and pleasant.

"Lord of Feathered Path, Dawn, who is lurking in the human race's territory, has sent word that a peerless genius has emerged among humans who has passed through the twelfth level of the Bridge to Heaven in less than a century!" The Zerg Queen, Mist Dawn, said respectfully.

"Less than a hundred years... Interesting, very interesting!"

The stunningly beautiful figure on the throne said softly, "We just killed 'Cody,' a disciple from Chaos City, not long ago, but unexpectedly, another genius with even more astonishing talent has emerged among the human race!"

"Choose a Cosmic Sovereign from my Zerg Alliance, find him, and kill him!"

Sending a cosmic venerable to assassinate Yang Wu is something that no other power, except for the three other top races with deep-seated hatred towards humanity, would even consider.

This also means that Yang Wu did indeed pose a huge threat to them.

Compared to the cosmic lords of various forces, the cosmic overlords, who possess the strength of cosmic overlords, are the backbone of the various peak races.

Because once war breaks out, they can fight to the death without regard for their own lives. Even if they perish, they can be resurrected by the strongest member of their race in the universe!

Of course, in the true final battle, the outcome of the war will ultimately be decided by the Lord of the Universe.

Yang Wu, on the other hand, now undoubtedly possesses the potential to grow into a cosmic overlord.

"Yes!" Venerable-level Zerg Queen Wuxi replied respectfully.

"Go! No matter how many geniuses humanity has, they will all die at the hands of our Zerg. Yang Wu will be no exception!"

……

While the other three top clans were planning to send assassins to kill Yang Wu, Yang Wu had already returned to reality and was preparing to break through to the Domain Lord level.

The original core formed by the Star Pearl within Yang Wu's body has become his true life core.

Inside the protonucleus lies a beautiful and brilliant spiral galaxy, and at the core of this spiral galaxy is a giant black hole. Around the black hole, on eight spiral arms, are eight smaller black holes.

Yang Wu was always ready to break through at any time, so when he had a thought, the vortex star system within the original core began to undergo astonishing changes.

Rumble...

The devouring power of the black hole at the core and the smaller black holes on the eight spiral arms surged dramatically, and the surrounding stars were being frantically devoured.

In particular, the black hole at the core is constantly growing larger and larger. Gradually, even the eight smaller black holes on the eight spiral arms are affected by gravity and begin to move closer to the past.

Devour!

The black hole at the core kept devouring everything it could, growing larger and larger until, gradually, all eight smaller black holes were also swallowed up.

Moments later, the entire vortex galaxy disappeared, leaving only a single supermassive black hole.

Rumble...

The supermassive black hole at the core then collapsed inwards, and the entire black hole began to shrink rapidly inside the protocore.

In the blink of an eye, the entire black hole collapsed and disappeared, and at the same time, a gray sphere appeared in the center of the original black hole.

puff!

A layer of gray outer shell shed from the gray sphere, and then this gray outer shell continued to expand, growing larger and larger until it was the same size as the original core of the entire Star Pearl. Then, it silently and completely merged together, causing some special changes to Yang Wu's life core.

In the void space within the pronucleus.

The Flame God Clan clone, which was over four meters tall, also began to evolve.

The countless amounts of mist energy were absorbed by the Flame God Clan clone, causing its size to grow at a visible rate, and the scales on its skin to continue to enlarge.

Yang Wu vaguely sensed that the physical structure of the Yan God Clan clone was beginning to change, and its life genes were constantly undergoing transformation.

Some of the original organs are damaged, and new organs gradually form.

Ultimately, the avatar of the Flame God Clan had grown to over six meters tall, and its entire body had become even more domineering and tyrannical.

Meanwhile, Yang Wu's body was also undergoing astonishing changes.

The vortex galaxy in Yang Wu's sea of ​​consciousness also disappeared, merging with the original nucleus in the dantian.

With the infusion of energy, Yang Wu's body was continuously transformed, and the hardness of his bones increased, making them denser.

Incredible changes occurred in his bone marrow, meridians, muscles, skin, and so on. His body became more indestructible, and his cell activity became increasingly powerful.

From the cosmic level to the domain lord, that's a huge leap in life!

From then on, even without using his clone talent, Yang Wu could recover from any damage to his body.

This is the Domain Lord!
