Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 297 Realm Lord Level, Comprehensive Enhancement

Just as the human race's high command was shocked by Yang Wu's breakthrough of the Primordial Tongtian Mountain, a Domain Lord-level peak, Yang Wu's consciousness had already returned to reality.

The primordial universe, Chaos City.

On the rooftop of a cultivation dwelling, Yang Wu, whose consciousness had returned to reality, slowly opened his eyes.

"Now that we've already conquered the Primordial Heavenly Mountain, a Domain Lord level challenge, let's break through to the World Lord level!"

Yang Wu had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

Although Yang Wu remains at the Domain Lord level, the refresh time of the Time Simulator will be much shorter. However, after breaking through to the World Lord level, the time he experiences during the simulation will likely increase as well.

Moreover, after breaking through to the Realm Lord level, Yang Wu will be able to descend his consciousness to the origin of the universe in reality, and his strength will also experience a huge leap.

Most importantly, with the help of the time simulator, his talent and comprehension can be further enhanced after breaking through to the realm master level.

With this in mind, Yang Wu closed his eyes, his consciousness completely immersed in the vast space inside the primordial core.

When an ordinary cosmic-level powerhouse advances to the domain lord level, the galaxy within their body is completely swallowed by a black hole, and the supermassive black hole continuously collapses to form a 'singularity'.

Within this 'singularity', a new world will gradually be born, and this gestation will continue throughout the entire process from the first level of Domain Lord to the ninth level of Domain Lord!

When the new world is fully conceived, a fundamental transformation will occur, and the new world that emerges will become a true world.

That gestating world will form a real world!

When Yang Wu broke through to the Domain Lord level, the 'Singularity' in his body completely merged with the Star Pearl, transforming into his own life core.

Therefore, the new world that is born within the 'singularity' is, in a sense, the void space within its original core.

……

In the void space inside the prokaryote.

"Nurture the inner world and step into the realm of the Lord!" Yang Wu's consciousness stirred.

Rumble...

With a loud bang, the entire vast void began to tremble.

The golden sphere at the core of the space instantly transformed into a massive black hole, frantically devouring all the energy within the space.

call!call!call!

Endless energy was being frantically swallowed by the giant black hole. Yang Wu slowly felt the emptiness in this void space gradually dissipate and begin to become real, just like a world that could truly give birth to life.

suddenly--

Boom!

After a deafening roar, the black hole, which had already absorbed boundless energy, exploded violently, transforming into a sky full of starlight.

Like a dazzling nebula, countless points of light spread out and eventually merged completely into the ever-expanding boundaries of the world.

"Starry Sea, Gather!"

During the transformation of his inner world, Yang Wu suddenly received a lot of new information.

Then, Yang Wu had a sudden thought and directly controlled the process.

The endless starlight instantly split into two parts. One part continued to merge into the expanding world, while the other part began to slowly condense, causing ripples to spread through the surrounding space.

Ultimately, this portion of starlight formed a vast sea of ​​stars in mid-air, hovering at the very core of the vast inner world space.

Within this sea of ​​stars, incredibly complex runes flow continuously, echoing the vast inner world within.

……

Normally, when a World Lord-level expert breaks through, a 'Sea of ​​Stars' will not appear in their inner world.

Only a very small number of beings will have this opportunity when they break through to the realm lord level.

Examples include the 'Two Realms Abyss' formed when the Golden Horned Beast broke through to the Realm Lord level, and the 'Nest of Ten Thousand Insects' formed when the Zerg Queen broke through to the Realm Lord level...

After its birth, the Golden Horned Beast possesses an inner world filled with pure "golden energy." Once it breaks through to the World Lord level, that aggressive metallic energy will condense into a "Two Worlds Abyss."

The energy essence within the 'Two Realms Abyss' will condense into a Golden Horn Boundary Stone. The stronger the Golden Horn Boundary Stone, the more expansive the inner world it can contain.

Yang Wu's situation was different.

His life core was not born naturally, but was finally formed after the 'singularity' and the Star Bead were completely fused together.

The Star Sea is a part of the essence of the Star Pearl, and it can continue to absorb various energy essences to transform itself, making Yang Wu's inner world more stable.

"The more powerful the primordial core, the larger the internal world it can contain!"

"Ordinary World Lord level powerhouses typically have an inner world diameter of only tens of thousands of kilometers. However, peak bloodlines like the Golden Horned Beast, even with the longest evolutionary path, reach an inner world diameter exceeding thirty million kilometers upon reaching the peak of the World Lord level. And if the Golden Horned Beast expands its inner world by devouring metal, with the Golden Horned World Stone continuously absorbing the essence of metal, its inner world can reach an astonishing ninety million kilometers!"

"And what about my inner world?"

Yang Wu had considered this issue before his breakthrough.

Even a giant golden-horned beast with an inner world diameter of 30 million kilometers, despite having an incredibly sturdy core, can break free from its shackles and achieve immortality once it gains the insight into the laws of a Marquis-level being.

The Golden Horned Beast, whose inner world reaches a diameter of 90 million kilometers, already faces a difficulty comparable to that of the Zerg Queen in breaking through to immortality. Only by reaching the King-level comprehension of the laws can one successfully break through the shackles and achieve immortality.

And what about Yang Wu?

When he obtained the Star Pearl, he learned from the Lord of Dragons that in order to break the shackles and achieve immortality, he had to create his own ultimate secret technique.

This level of difficulty is no less than the breakthrough Luo Feng faced after achieving perfect genes!

The laws governing the universe are fair. Since Yang Wu's breakthrough was so incredibly difficult, how vast must his inner world be?

……

As the world within his body underwent dramatic changes, Yang Wu's own body also began to change dramatically.

"Rumble..."

Under the influence of an invisible force, the soul crystal and primal force crystal within Yang Wu's body melted directly into a torrent of liquid.

When the two torrents of spiritual power and genetic force truly collided and merged with willpower, the first wisp of world power was born within Yang Wu's body!

As soon as the power of the world was born, it seemed to resonate with a wisp of Yang Wu's consciousness, allowing him to sense the origin of the vast universe.

"Is this the true origin of the universe?"

Although Yang Wu had already gained recognition from the fundamental laws of fire and metal, this was the first time his consciousness had entered the origin of the universe in reality.

This is an incredibly vast land, where every grain of dust is like a space containing endless cosmic crystals.

Just as Yang Wu was pondering, an invisible connection instantly opened the passage between the 'inner world' and the 'origin of the universe'.

Endless cosmic primordial energy surged wildly into Yang Wu's inner world, like a super flood, filling the space within his body in an instant.

As far as the origin of the universe is concerned, releasing even a small amount of energy is enough to fill Yang Wu's inner world.

But as these primordial energies of the universe continued to pour in, Yang Wu's inner world began to expand once again.

"That's terrifying!"

Yang Wu looked at and felt the ever-expanding inner world within him, feeling immense excitement.

The more expansive the internal world, the more robust it is.

As for breaking through the shackles and achieving immortality, Yang Wu wasn't worried about the hundredfold time simulation provided by the time simulator.

"It has already expanded to a diameter of 100 million kilometers, and it is still expanding!" Yang Wu's anticipation grew stronger.

It should be noted that even the strongest Golden Horned Beast, when it reached the peak of the World Lord level, had an internal world diameter of only 90 million kilometers. However, Yang Wu has just broken through to the World Lord level.

An endless stream of cosmic primordial power surged in, causing the inner world to expand continuously; as the inner world expanded, more cosmic primordial power flowed out.

This cycle repeats itself, causing Yang Wu's inner world to expand continuously.

Boom...

The entire inner world shuddered violently and finally stopped its continuous expansion.

"Has it finally reached its limit? A diameter of 10 billion kilometers?"

Yang Wu's consciousness was immersed in his inner world, sensing the vast and boundless edge of it. He couldn't help but marvel, "No wonder it's a core fused with the Star Pearl; it can actually contain such a vast inner world!"

"Once I reach the ninth level of the Realm Lord, my inner world should be able to expand to a diameter of hundreds of billions of kilometers. Although it's still quite different from Luo Feng's inner world with a diameter of trillions of kilometers when he achieved perfect genes, for an external object like the Star Pearl to reach this level is already incredibly astonishing!"

Yang Wu thought to himself, "Moreover, if I can achieve perfect genes, my inner world can also expand again!"

However, because his inner world had just begun to take shape, Yang Wu felt that it was empty and chaotic. He stopped thinking about it and immediately began to use his consciousness to control the endless cosmic primordial energy, the "Power of the World," that filled his inner world.

"The stars of the heavens, condense!" A magnificent voice echoed in the silent inner world.

Immediately, a star began to condense in the center of the inner world.

Rumble...

After the first star was born, the power of the endless world gathered again, and under Yang Wu's control, it continuously condensed into stars.

One, two...

The 365 stars appear continuously, which corresponds to the number of stars in the celestial sphere.

Finally, the countless stars hung upside down in the sky, transforming into a dazzling galaxy, a truly magnificent sight.

"The sun and moon revolve!"

Yang Wu pointed to the Milky Way, and the blazing sun and bright moon once again condensed in mid-air.

"Central Continent, Endless Sea, All Things in the World, Life!" Yang Wu looked down at the earth from mid-air once again.

Rumble...

A continuous stream of rocks emerged from the earth...

An endless flood arose between heaven and earth, falling around the endless continents and transforming into a boundless ocean...

In the vast and magnificent ocean, islands of varying sizes are scattered like stars...

Then, the entire inner world was filled with mist, and life burst forth...

Mountains and rivers, flowers, birds, fish and insects... the entire inner world is no different from the real world.

Amidst the drifting clouds and mist, there stands a magnificent celestial palace, dazzlingly beautiful.

"The inner world is complete!"

Splash...

The remaining boundless cosmic primordial energy quickly transformed into cosmic crystals, continuously condensing into cosmic crystal mountains on the central continent.

The inner world has been successfully condensed, and the remaining cosmic primordial energy, the "power of the world," within it has naturally condensed into a cosmic crystal. This is a common experience for powerful individuals who have just entered the realm of world lords.

However, a normal realm lord can only obtain a few cosmic crystals, so how could he possibly condense these mountains of cosmic crystals?

……

at the same time.

"Rumble..."

Inside the primordial core, spiritual power and genetic primordial force have completely merged, and following the mysterious natural evolution of the universe, it has finally evolved into a primordial bead.

The Origin Bead rotates slightly, releasing endless threads that connect to the primordial nucleus.

The pronucleus was also completely altered as a result.

The original core had incredibly complex law patterns on its surface, but after absorbing the essence of the inner world, the essence of the Origin Pearl, and the essence of the origin of the universe, it became an extremely ordinary core.

Incredibly ancient!

There was no light whatsoever, and even the secret runes of the laws were completely concealed.

"If I were to unleash the World Projection now, I'm afraid I could suppress even a peak World Lord level expert, right?" Yang Wu secretly wondered.

The power gap between World Lords and Domain Lords is too large, and besides the difference in basic energy, the world projection is also one of the reasons.

Given Yang Wu's vast inner world, once he unleashes a world projection, it would likely be enough to suppress even a peak Realm Lord.

"However, precisely because the world projection is so astonishing, I won't be able to use it easily in the future!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

The internal world with a diameter of billions of kilometers is simply too incredible. Once he uses the world projection, it will definitely bring him a lot of trouble.

……

Within the body, on the central continent, a world of birdsong and fragrant flowers abounds.

"The Earthling himself has broken through to the World Lord level!"

"The Flame God Clan's avatar has broken through to the World Lord level!"

As the true core, the primordial nucleus has successfully nurtured the inner world, thus removing any obstacles to Yang Wu's own breakthrough.

Driven by consciousness, a cosmic crystal mountain within the body shattered, transforming into an incomparably powerful force that continuously surged into the body of the Earthling.

Meanwhile, the Flame God Clan avatar within the Time Palace also retrieved countless cosmic crystals to propel its own evolution.

Rumble...

As Yang Wu continuously absorbed the power of the world, it rapidly transformed his body, causing a fundamental metamorphosis in his muscles, internal organs, and bones.

Every breakthrough to a higher realm is a leap in life.

Crackling sounds!

Various sounds emanated from the six-meter-tall Yan Shen Clan clone. Its already incredibly strong body underwent another transformation, absorbing a large amount of primordial energy, causing its body to grow larger and larger. The scales on its body and the horn on its forehead became even denser.

Ultimately, the genes of the Yan God Clan clone reached eight times that of ordinary cosmic life forms, and its height also reached about eight meters.

This is the final form of an ordinary Yan Shen clan member after reaching the World Lord level. Only if their life genes continue to break through can their size continue to grow.

Soon, both of Yang Wu's bodies completed their transformation, and he officially broke through to the Realm Lord level.

Yang Wu felt quite pleased as he sensed the powerful aura of the Yan God Clan's avatar.

"Finally, I've reached the Realm Lord level." Yang Wu secretly planned, "Next, I can have the Flame God Clan avatar fuse with the Blood Crystal!"

The life genes of the Domain Lord-level Shi Yan God Clan avatar are only four times that of the original, and it has not undergone the transformation of the evil energy in the Blood Luo World. Even if it were to fuse with the Blood Luo Crystal, it probably wouldn't be able to fuse much.

"However... the most important thing now is the change in the Time Simulator after reaching the World Lord level!"

Yang Wu didn't waste any time and directly opened the time simulator in his mind.

"Sure enough, the simulation interval on the time simulator has become longer again!" Yang Wu sighed to himself as he sensed the message coming from the time simulator.

After breaking through to the Realm Lord level, the interval between each simulation in the Time Simulator has become 720 years.

Even with a time flow rate five times faster, such a long period of time would still take more than a hundred years.

Of course, the time limit in the simulation will also increase accordingly, so Yang Wu has nothing to regret.

"Next, I need to examine the changes in my own comprehension!"

With that in mind, Yang Wu took out a top-level secret technique that he had never studied before and began to meditate on it.

……

An hour later.

Yang Wu slowly stood up, a hint of regret on his face.

"Although the cultivation speed of a World Lord is greatly increased, according to the relevant information I've collected, my current comprehension speed is still a little behind that of a peerless genius like Coty, who appears only once every tens of millions of epochs!"

"To be precise, my current comprehension is roughly on par with that of peerless geniuses like the Seven Sword Kings, who appear only once every hundreds of thousands of epochs!"

"Of course, I have many advantages, such as the ability to create clones, so my actual cultivation speed is actually faster than that of the Seven Sword Kings!"

Even before his breakthrough, Yang Wu had already collected information on the cultivation speed of many peerless geniuses in human history during their World Lord era.

Unfortunately, although his comprehension increased after this breakthrough, it did not meet Yang Wu's own expectations.

In the past, Yang Wu wouldn't have cared too much, since his comprehension and talent were already far superior to what they were at the beginning.

However, the current crisis of Earth's exposure has added considerable pressure to his mind.

However, Yang Wu's temperament was far superior to others, and after a moment of silence, his smile returned.

"So what if my talent is slightly weaker!" Yang Wu thought firmly. "At worst, I'll just expend more resources in the future to speed up the time flow in the Time Palace!"

"If the Venerable Fire Eclipse could achieve the Venerable realm in hundreds of thousands of years, I refuse to believe that I can't break through to immortality even after spending millions of years!"

In fact, strictly speaking, creating one's own ultimate secret technique is more difficult than breaking through to the level of a Cosmic Venerable. After all, even for Cosmic Venerables, most of their self-created secret techniques are only at the peak level.

However, this varies from person to person.

For a genius like Rong Jun, who is more suited to creating his own secret techniques, creating an ultimate secret technique would probably be simpler than comprehending the complete rules of space; while a genius like Venerable Fiery Erosion would naturally be superior in comprehending the laws!

Therefore, Yang Wu did not know how far he would go five thousand years later.

However, he will never stop trying.
