Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 364 Receiving the Inheritance

The palace was very spacious, and Yang Wu walked for a long time before finally arriving at the main hall.

"The successor!" Upon seeing Yang Wu's appearance, a man sitting cross-legged at the palace gate stood up.

Judging from his appearance, the man was actually human. He wore a simple black robe, had long blue hair, and mysterious blue markings on his face. His aura fluctuated subtly, indicating that he was at least a Universe Venerable.

He walked for a long time before finally arriving at the main hall.

"The Inheritor." In front of the main hall, a human man who was sitting cross-legged stood up. He was dressed in a simple black robe, had long blue hair, and blue secret patterns on his face. His aura was faint, indicating that he was at least a Universe Venerable level being.

The human man smiled and said, "I really didn't expect to see two human inheritors in such a short time. It's truly delightful!"

"No need for doubt. I am one of the island lord's servants, specifically responsible for guarding this palace. I have already sent the message to the island lord; you can simply wait here for news!"

Looking at the soul servant of this cosmic venerable level before him, Yang Wu had a bad feeling about the upcoming meeting.

He was originally a realm lord, and it was only by relying on the auxiliary metal life form and the top-tier treasure, the Burning Heaven Mirror, that he was able to conceal his aura from other powerful beings.

But for the cosmic ruler who can control time and space, such disguise is completely meaningless.

The cosmic lord of Zijing Island, who is capable of enslaving the human race, may well have originated from a different race that has conflicts with the human race.

Although as a guardian beast god, he could not take action against Yang Wu within the Ancestral God Sect, Yang Wu could directly pass the message to the top races with great grudges against humans, such as the demon race, the insect race, and the mechanical race.

As a result, Yang Wu is very likely to encounter danger even within the Ancestral God Sect.

However, since the two clones Yang Wu wanted to create next were closely related to the Ancestral God Sect, he had no choice but to come here.

……

Two months later.

"Come in."

An overbearing aura that made people tremble instantly enveloped the entire palace, and then a slightly high-pitched, soul-piercing voice came from the main hall.

"Thankfully, the wait wasn't too long!"

Upon hearing the voice, Yang Wu immediately stood up and followed the black-robed human into the main hall.

Yang Wu had already learned about the Ancestral God Sect before he came here.

If one seeks an audience with this guardian beast god and encounters an unfortunate situation, it can take up to ten years.

If the other party doesn't appear within ten years, then other beast gods will be asked to help handle the situation.

Yang Wu has only waited two months, which is still acceptable.

Upon entering the main hall, Yang Wu felt as if he were in an endless world of flames, with the surrounding space filled with fire.

On the towering throne in front, a strange creature resembling a dragon but with wings was coiled. It lowered its dragon head slightly to look down, and its body was covered with strange armor, on which magical flames bloomed.

This strange life form is the controller of this space-time, a supreme beast god who has completely mastered the laws of fire and space fusion.

"Huh, it's just a Realm Lord?"

Upon seeing Yang Wu, the Fire Sky Beast God couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation: "Haha... Interesting, interesting!"

"Since I joined the Ancestral God Cult, I've never heard of a human realm lord becoming a successor to the Beast God! Let me check!"

Upon learning that Yang Wu was merely a Realm Lord, the Fire Sky Beast God immediately became interested.

Although it's quite unbelievable that someone at the Realm Lord level could come to the Ancestral God Sect, the Ancestral God Sect has existed for countless ages. Over such a long period, there will always be some unparalleled geniuses who can become inheritors of the Beast God at the Realm Lord level.

However, for humans, whose life genes are quite ordinary, it is extremely difficult for such a powerful individual to emerge.

Realm Lord?

It was actually a realm lord?

"I never imagined that such a genius could emerge from among our human race?" The black-robed human man was even more shocked upon hearing what the Fire Sky Beast God said.

"A top-tier treasure of the soul type? Fused with a hundred drops of beast god's blood..."

In just a moment, the Fire Sky Beast God discovered all the opportunities Yang Wu possessed besides the Time Simulator.

"Not bad, not bad!" The Fire Sky Beast God looked down at Yang Wu and smiled, "Being able to fuse a hundred drops of Beast God blood shows you have quite a talent for the Path of the Beast God. It seems you're very likely to become an outer member of my Ancestral God Sect in the future!"

"Human, from this moment on, you are the inheritor of the Beast God of Purple Thorn Island."

A resounding voice emanated from the Fire Sky Beast God: "First, I will grant you access to the 'World of Glory'."

Wow!

As soon as he finished speaking, an object resembling an intelligent computer appeared out of thin air and flew directly towards Yang Wu.

The Fire Sky Beast God continued, "This is the receiving sensor of the Glory World!"

"The World of Glory is a crucial virtual world within my Ancestral God Cult, similar to the virtual universe of your human world, but much smaller in scale, roughly covering only the entire area of ​​the Ancestral God Mystic Realm!"

"Next, I will grant you access to the 'Land of Inheritance,' the 'Land of Treasure,' and the 'Land of Secrets.'"

The Fire Sky Beast God continued, "The three water curtains in front of the palace are the teleportation channels leading to these three areas. Of course... without authorization, one cannot enter."

"The water curtain on the far left leads to the Land of Inheritance, where inheritors receive the inheritance of the Beast God and test their understanding of the laws."

"The water curtain in the middle leads to the treasure trove, where the treasures left behind by the super-strong beings of the Ancestral God Sect throughout the ages are hidden. If a successor can meet the requirements of the super beings who left behind the treasures, then they can retrieve the treasures within."

"And the water curtain on the far right leads to the secret realm. Following that teleportation channel, you can directly enter the depths of my ancestral secret realm."

"The Ancestral Mystic Realm is the most mysterious realm in the primordial universe, containing many rare and precious treasures. However, it is also the most dangerous realm; the more precious the treasures, the more dangerous it is. Therefore, anyone who wants to enter this realm must be prepared to perish."

"The Land of Inheritance, the Land of Treasures, the Land of Secrets, and the World of Glory... these are the places you, the inheritors of the Beast God, most need to familiarize yourselves with."

"Human, you can first build your own dwelling on Purple Thorn Island, and then go to the Land of Inheritance to receive the inheritance!"

"Go!" The guardian beast god looked down, his voice booming.

"Yes, Island Master!"

Yang Wu bowed slightly in greeting, and then followed the man in black robes out of the palace.

……

Outside the palace, the man in black robes looked at Yang Wu, the look of amazement still lingering on his face.

"Successor, I still don't know your name?" the man in black robes asked softly.

"You can call me 'Xia'!" Yang Wu said calmly.

"Xia, although I don't know your true identity, the fact that a Realm Lord like you can come to the Ancestral God Sect shows that your talent must be among the best in the history of the human race."

"However, you don't need to worry that the master will reveal your identity as a realm lord!" The black-robed man had lived for countless years and could naturally sense Yang Wu's concerns.

"Before inheriting the throne of the Beast God, Master was merely a special life form in the universe, always acting alone. As for me, it was only because Master saved my life that I voluntarily submitted to Master's command!"

"Back then, I was just an immortal god. Thanks to my master's help, I was able to become a cosmic sovereign."

Although he is now a servant under the Beast God who protects the faith, the man in black robes clearly still has deep feelings for the human race.

Therefore, when he meets outstanding juniors among the human race, he will try his best to give them some pointers.

"Thank you for the reminder, Venerable One!" Yang Wu said with utmost sincerity.

Only then did he recall his experiences in the previous simulations, and it seemed that he had indeed not been assassinated by any alien race within the Ancestral God Cult.

……

After bidding farewell to the man in black robes, Yang Wu found a beautiful location on Zijing Island and began building his own palace.

"rise!"

Yang Wu pointed to the open space in front of him.

Whoosh!

A rather exquisite landscape garden immediately sprang up from the ground. Although it could not compare to the magnificent palaces not far away, it had its own unique poetic charm.

After the mansion was completed, Yang Wu went directly back to the square in front of the island lord's palace.

"Let's not rush into creating clones. Let's first witness the wonders of the Inheritance Land!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

Although he had received many inheritances in simulated experiences, he had never had such an experience in reality.

Wow!

With that in mind, Yang Wu stepped directly into the leftmost water curtain.

As the surrounding space and time shifted, Yang Wu immediately felt a terrifying pressure enveloping him.

The oppressive feeling was even more intense than when facing the guardian beast god before, and it also contained an astonishing soul pressure.

Yang Wu could even clearly sense that even a peak Marquis-level expert would likely be overwhelmed and perish here.

Fortunately, Yang Wu had the Flame Dragon Armor protecting him, and his auxiliary metal life form was also upgraded to the peak of the King level, making it quite easy for him to withstand these pressures.

"Is this the place of inheritance?"

Yang Wu looked around and saw that the surroundings were empty and shrouded in boundless black mist.

Not far away in the void, a meteorite was suspended, and on the meteorite was a powerful figure wearing purple armor, with a wolf's head and a human body. He was none other than Venerable Jiufeng, a super being of the werewolf race among the human race.

Venerable Jiufeng is one of the seven overlords among the human race within the Hong Alliance. He has received the complete divine general inheritance and has become an outer member of the Ancestral God Sect as a "candidate divine general".

Upon seeing Yang Wu, Venerable Jiufeng smiled and said, "You must be the Divine Might King who has recently risen to fame on the extraterritorial battlefield! I have already received news from the clan!"

"Greetings, Venerable Jiufeng." Yang Wu quickly bowed.

Regarding his acquisition of the Beast God's Inheritance Token, it is estimated that only the Lord of the Universe among the human race would be able to obtain the news. The Venerable Ancestral Tree might have some guesses, but he would never spread them around.

Therefore, Venerable Jiufeng was still unaware of Yang Wu's true identity at this time.

"This land of inheritance was born from the natural forces of the universe, and is incredibly mysterious. It is one of the true strongholds of the Ancestral God Sect!"

Venerable Jiufeng solemnly stated, "Each time you inheritors receive an inheritance, your progress in comprehending the laws will be checked first. The eight Beast God inheritances are divided into seven levels. If you have fully comprehended the first two levels but not the third, then when you receive the inheritance, you will see the third level of the inheritance; if you have fully comprehended the third level, then when you receive the inheritance, you will see the fourth level of the Beast God Path!"

At this point, Venerable Jiufeng looked at Yang Wu with some curiosity: "May I ask, Divine Might King, what level are you at?"

"I'm so lucky I've already fully grasped the third level!" Yang Wu said calmly.

"Oh? You've actually reached the fourth level?" As soon as Yang Wu finished speaking, a hint of surprise appeared in Venerable Jiufeng's eyes.

It should be noted that there are hundreds of Beast God inheritors among the human race. Apart from a few Cosmic Venerables, most of the others are only at the third level.

Those who can reach the fourth level of the Path of the Beast God are few and far between.

The Divine Might King before us has already reached the fourth level upon arriving at the Ancestral God Sect. It seems that he has a great chance of breaking through to the Universe Venerable realm in the future.

However, even ordinary cosmic venerables are far inferior in strength to Venerable Jiufeng.

Therefore, Venerable Jiufeng was only slightly surprised, but then regained his composure.

"Divine King, you should go and receive the inheritance first. You only need to enter the surrounding black mist," Venerable Jiufeng said with a smile.

"Okay!" Yang Wu nodded and flew directly into the surrounding black mist.

The moment Yang Wu flew into the black mist.

boom!

An incredible force immediately acted on Yang Wu's entire body. Even though Yang Wu's cultivation level was already extremely high, he was completely unable to resist this powerful force.

His body seemed to have completely lost control, and he stood there dumbly in mid-air, his right hand fingers gently extended.

"Buzz!!"

Strands of world power emanated from Yang Wu's hands and quickly condensed into law runes.

One after another, the secret runes of the laws emerged, and the entire law of fusion of 'flame and space' began to be demonstrated uncontrollably in Yang Wu's hands, starting from the most basic level and progressing from the fundamental to the profound.

As time passed, more and more laws and secret patterns appeared, intertwining with each other and directly forming a world composed of beautiful laws.

After a while, Yang Wu finally stopped.

At the same time, the mysterious power also left Yang Wu's body, and Yang Wu clearly remembered the scene of being manipulated by the mysterious power to interpret the laws of fusion.

"What amazing power!" Yang Wu couldn't help but exclaim.

"Unfortunately, I've received the Beast God's inheritance too many times in the simulator, and now, if I want to continue improving, my accumulated experience is far from enough!"

At this time-

That mysterious power has descended once again.

"The fourth level!"

A mighty voice resounded directly in Yang Wu's mind. The language used was none of those he was familiar with, yet he was able to understand its meaning with perfect clarity.

The vast and magnificent figures echoed in Yang Wu's mind, directly plunging him into a strange illusion.

Within the illusion, the deeper mysteries of the Path of the Beast God were continuously revealed, as if a super-powerful being had directly instilled their insights into Yang Wu's mind.

Inside the Time Palace, the weak clone continued to comprehend the secrets of time at a hundred times the normal speed.

Even the Flame God Clan avatar on the outer battlefield found a secluded spot to sit cross-legged and silently comprehend the mysteries.

In this state, Yang Wu continued to comprehend, and with the help of the land of inheritance, countless mysteries were revealed.

I don't know how much time passed...

That mysterious power dissipated once again.

The surrounding black mist seemed to repel him, causing Yang Wu to fly backward.

I've been busy with blind dates lately, but I'll continue with more updates tomorrow.
