Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 398 Azure Radiance Secret Realm

time flies.

The Azure Radiance Secret Realm is located on the edge of the universe, extremely far from human territory.

Therefore, after teleporting himself to the closest coordinates to the Kahn Secret Realm through his immortal divine servants, Yang Wu spent another six months flying through the dark universe before finally arriving outside the Qingyao Secret Realm.

The Qingyao Secret Realm has a maximum diameter of only 100,000 light-years, which is about the same size as the Milky Way. Among the many secret realms in the vast universe, it can only be considered to be in the middle to lower range.

Moreover, the Qingyao Secret Realm is extremely dangerous; even some powerful realm lords can venture in and explore it.

In the outer region of the Azure Radiance Secret Realm, in the endless void, a dark-colored spaceship suddenly appeared out of thin air.

"We've finally arrived at the Azure Radiance Secret Realm!"

Inside the spaceship's control room, Yang Wu gazed into the distance at the empty space ahead.

The coordinates that the Mountain-Sitting Guest left him for obtaining the ultimate treasure during his Immortal God stage were located in the core area of ​​the Azure Radiance Secret Realm.

"According to the information I found in the virtual universe, this Qingyao Secret Realm is the sacred land of the Qingyan Clan, and most of the area is completely occupied by the Qingyan Clan!" Yang Wu thought to himself, while detailed information about the Qingyan Clan kept appearing in his mind.

The Qingyan Clan are rock-based life forms, and in the early stages of the universe's evolution, they could only be considered a weak group.

But the Qingyan clan was quite lucky!

The reason for saying this is because the current guardian of the Qingyan Clan is Venerable Qingyao.

The Azure Radiance Venerable is a special life form with extremely powerful strength, ranking among the top even among the many cosmic overlords.

Yet, for some unknown reason, this cosmic overlord willingly became the guardian of the weak Qingyan Clan.

It's important to know that there are powerful beings in the universe who have become worshipped by certain forces!

Just like the Northern Frontier Alliance Leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance, and other powerful figures invited by other forces...

However, these worshippers are merely nominal; those in power who want to entrust their services will have to pay a heavy price.

For example, if the Northern Frontier Alliance wanted to invite its leader to revive the universe's overlord, the price they would have to pay would be extremely high, far exceeding the price paid by the strongest beings in the universe from other top powers to revive their universe overlords.

After all, for the strongest beings in the universe, resurrecting the cosmic overlords of their own race is more out of a sense of responsibility, while resurrecting the cosmic overlords of other races is more out of a sense of self-interest.

Just like the high-level cosmic venerables of the human race, the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom fell three times in succession, but was quickly resurrected by reversing time and space, and even the price of resurrection had not been paid; while Herodo, who also joined the Hong Alliance and had the strength of a cosmic overlord, has never been resurrected after his fall!

This is the biggest difference between the strong of one's own race and those worshipped by other races.

In the event of a life-or-death crisis, the strongest beings in the universe, such as the leader of the Northern Frontier Alliance, would probably abandon the Northern Frontier Alliance very quickly; but the strongest being of the Giant Axe would never abandon the human race!

However, the actions of Venerable Qingyao were completely different.

For some reason, Venerable Qingyao, who was born into a special species, regarded the Qingyan Clan as his own.

For countless ages, he has served as the guardian of the Qingyan Clan, leading them to occupy a remote territory on the edge of the universe, where they have continued to grow.

The Azure Radiance Secret Realm wasn't originally called the Azure Radiance Secret Realm. It was only because it was occupied by the Azure Radiance Venerable for countless years that it gradually changed to its current name.

Today, the area surrounding the Qingyao Secret Realm, roughly one-tenth the size of a cosmic kingdom, is entirely the breeding and habitat of the Qingyan Clan.

This is also the most normal practice for most powerful races in the universe.

For example, the Primordial Realm and the Primal Realm within human groups...

Even if the energy in the secret realm is perfect for the growth of the strong, these capable clans will not allow their descendants to reproduce and live in the secret realm.

After all, life forms born in secret realms are inherently weaker in potential than those born within the universe. Apart from special life forms, probably no life form would be indifferent to this issue.

Only those ordinary races with insufficient strength, or even weak races, such as the Golden Horn race today, would stay in the secret realm of the universe to reproduce and thrive.

As for the powerful Yan God Clan still living in the Yan Mystic Realm, that is entirely the Yan Emperor's personal idea.

"With the protection of Venerable Qingyao, the Qingyan Clan can now occupy a place in the vast universe!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

Although Venerable Qingyao was born into a special life form, he was gentle and made many friends. Later, he led the Qingyan Clan to join the Northern Frontier Alliance, one of the nine top powers in the universe.

……

Ten days later, Yang Wu finally arrived at the coordinates given by the Mountain Hermit: Qingyao Star.

In the endless void, countless planets of all sizes are scattered throughout, and at the very core of these planets, there floats an incredibly enormous planet.

This is an absurdly large planet; even the Death Star that Yang Wu had seen in the Glory Secret Realm was nothing compared to it.

This is a supermassive planet with a diameter exceeding 800 billion kilometers. Even a star would appear as a speck of dust in its presence.

Of course, while such a planet is enormous, it is not particularly unusual in the vast universe, and there are many planets that are even larger.

However, this Azure Radiance Star is quite famous in the universe because it is inhabited by the guardian of the Azure Rock Clan, a super being capable of traversing the universe, the Azure Radiance Venerable.

"Master Zuoshanke didn't tell me the exact information about the treasure, and unlike Luo Feng in the original story, I can't directly sense the existence of the treasure. The key is how to obtain the treasure!" Yang Wu thought to himself as his Yan Shen Clan clone stood in the void outside Qingyao Star.

"However, since this is a test from Master Zuoshanke, it must be related to that Venerable Qingyao. He must know some information!"

Yang Wu recalled some of the trials Luo Feng had experienced in the original work, whether it was the journey to the Ice Prison in the Wuhua Secret Realm or being teleported to the small universe of the Old Beast God on the Craftsman God Star, all of which were related to the masters of the two places.

"In that case, I might as well go and pay a visit to Venerable Qingyao!" Yang Wu thought to himself. "Anyway, with the current strength of my Yan God Clan avatar, I don't need to be too afraid of even a cosmic overlord like Venerable Qingyao!"

"If something unexpected really happens, we can just crush Master Dragon's keepsake!"

In the original story, Luo Feng escaped from the Ice Prison with the help of the Chaos City Lord, while the Mountain-Sitting Guest did not interfere at all.

Thinking of this, Yang Wu immediately stopped concealing his figure and instead released his aura.

Instantly, an invisible pressure spread out.

The defense system on Qingyao Star instantly detected the aura of the Yan God Clan clone. Then, a stream of light flew out from Qingyao Star and landed in front of Yang Wu.

This was the figure of a towering rock giant, a hundred meters tall, with four arms, but only one eye on its head.

This four-armed rock giant was a King-level Immortal, and he also exuded a powerful aura. However, compared with the current avatar of the Flame God Clan, he was like a firefly compared to the bright moon.

The four-armed rock giant stared in shock at the imposing figure before him and the surging aura emanating from it, feeling a profound sense of awe.

Although he had been in charge of finishing up the work at the Qingyan Clan's sacred site, he had only received a handful of powerful individuals with such an aura throughout countless years.

Of course, despite his shock, the rock giant, bound by duty, addressed the Flame God avatar in a loud voice: "Outsider, this is the sacred ground of the Azure Rock Clan, the residence of Venerable Azure Radiance. Please state your identity and purpose!"

Just then, a tall figure clad in cyan armor flew out of the temple. He looked at the avatar of the Flame God Clan and said, "Please follow me, Venerable Azure Radiance is waiting for you!"

"Alright!" Yang Wu said calmly, controlling the Yan God Clan clone to slowly shrink, and then followed the figure in cyan armor towards the core area of ​​Qingyao Star.

This scene greatly surprised Feng Wang Buxiu, who was in charge of receiving them.

"Just who is this powerful being? Why would an elder come out to greet him? Could he also be a cosmic overlord?"

It should be noted that the highest-ranking member of the Qingyan Clan is currently Venerable Qingyao, but below Venerable Qingyao, there are already several Universe Venerables, all of whom have become highly respected elders in the Qingyan Clan.

……

In the core area of ​​Qingyao Star, inside a magnificent temple.

After Yang Wu followed the Universe Venerable of the Qingyan Clan into the main hall, the other party did not enter but left directly.

Yang Wu didn't pay any attention to that, and instead focused his gaze on the figure in the main hall.

The opponent was tens of thousands of kilometers tall, wearing a blue battle robe covered with incredibly ancient and complex runes. His expressionless face showed a slight smile upon seeing the avatar of the Yan God Clan.

"Greetings, Venerable Qingyao!" Yang Wu greeted calmly.

Although the other party is a cosmic overlord, he is not an elder. With Yang Wu's current strength, he can treat him as an equal.

"King of Slaughter, I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly!" Venerable Qingyao's voice resounded throughout every inch of the hall.

Yang Wu wasn't surprised that the other party recognized his identity immediately.

After all, the fame of the Flame God Clan's avatar in the universe is indeed astonishing.

However, the original Yan Shen Clan avatar was merely a Realm Lord, but now he has finally become a true God-Slaying King.

"Truly worthy of being the most outstanding genius of the Yan God Clan throughout countless ages!"

Venerable Qingyao exclaimed, "King of Slaughter, your ability to reach the level of perfect life genes is even more astonishing than that of Emperor Yan back then!"

As a special life form, Venerable Qingyao has lived for an incredibly long time, and naturally, he also experienced the stage when Emperor Yan rose to power.

"You flatter me, Your Excellency!" Yang Wu said calmly.

"Haha, I won't say anything more!"

Venerable Qingyao smiled and asked, "You came here, presumably because of your teacher, Master Zuoshanke?"

"Just as I thought!" Yang Wu's heart stirred slightly.

Even before arriving at the Azure Radiance Secret Realm, Yang Wu had already made a guess, and now his guess has indeed been confirmed.

"Exactly!" Yang Wu said earnestly, "Please enlighten me, Venerable One!"

Although he had successfully met Venerable Qingyao, Yang Wu was well aware that the trials left behind by the Mountain Guest would not be so simple.

"Your teacher left me a coordinate location. You can obtain that location once you complete the corresponding test!"

Venerable Qingyao looked intently at the Yan God Clan avatar and solemnly said, "However, this test is quite difficult. Even with your extraordinary talent and comprehension, I don't believe you can pass it within 100,000 years!"

"Within a hundred thousand years?"

Yang Wu's heart stirred slightly.

If it's just a matter of time, it's extremely simple for Yang Wu!

After all, even the reincarnated god-king, Zuo Shan Ke, could never have guessed that he would have such a heaven-defying opportunity as the Time Simulator.

Ten thousand years is not even as long as a single simulated experience!

"May I ask, Venerable One, what kind of test did Master Zuoshanke leave for me?" Yang Wu asked earnestly.

"The requirements are very simple!"

Venerable Qingyao solemnly declared, "If you defeat me within ten thousand years, you can obtain the coordinates left behind by your teacher from me!"

"Defeat you?" Yang Wu was slightly taken aback.

Although Venerable Qingyao cannot be considered a top-tier cosmic overlord, his strength is definitely among the top ranks of cosmic overlords. He is even comparable to Venerable Jiufeng, whom Yang Wu once met in the Ancestral God Sect.

To defeat the opponent, one would need at least the strength of a top-tier cosmic overlord!

Seeing the surprise on the face of the Yan God Clan clone, Venerable Qingyao was also filled with emotion.

Defeating him would indeed be difficult. However, given the talent and comprehension of this God-Slaying King before us, there is still a great chance that it can be done.

Even if the other party could do it, it would require countless years of accumulation.

What can you accomplish in a mere 100,000 years?

It is important to understand that the stronger a martial artist is, the more difficult it becomes to improve.

Even the most brilliant geniuses will eventually encounter a bottleneck in their growth!

In this recent era, when it comes to cultivation speed, Yang Wu, the unparalleled genius among the human race, is the most astonishing.

In Venerable Qingyao's eyes, Yang Wu's ability to rival the peak of the King-level realm in his understanding of the laws in such a short time was truly astonishing.

Even if it is the other party, they may be able to become a cosmic venerable within 100,000 years, but to have the strength of a top cosmic overlord is nothing short of a pipe dream.

Because, like the invincible kings who have been crowned kings, top-tier cosmic overlords have no weaknesses.

Treasures, secret techniques, life gene levels, and so on, all must be extremely powerful.

Perhaps Yang Wu could obtain a powerful treasure from the human race, or perhaps with the help of the human race, he could possess an extremely powerful and special life form. However, creating a heaven-defying secret technique would require the accumulation of countless years!

Although the God-Slaying King before him was quite impressive, in terms of cultivation speed, Yang Wu was undoubtedly far superior.

"Could it be that, like Luo Feng defeating the old Beast God, the two will maintain the same divine body strength?" Yang Wu stood aside, thinking to himself.

Although the divine body strength of the Yan God Clan avatar is now equivalent to that of a cosmic overlord at a hundred times the genetic level, it is still inferior to the Azure Radiance Venerable, who is of special life form origin. In addition, the difference in the understanding of laws and secret techniques makes it indeed difficult to defeat the opponent in a short period of time.

But after waiting for a while, Yang Wu did not hear any further comment from Venerable Qingyao.

After a brief inquiry, they learned that the entire test consisted of defeating Venerable Qingyao in his prime.

"Don't worry!"

Venerable Qingyao smiled and said, "With your strength, God-Slaying King, if you could break through to become a Universe Venerable, and then hone your skills a little to create the ultimate secret technique of a Universe Venerable, defeating me wouldn't be too difficult! However, all of this requires countless years of accumulation!"

Upon hearing Venerable Qingyao's words, Yang Wu's heart stirred slightly.

Yes, becoming a cosmic venerable one is indeed not too difficult for Yang Wu now.

After all, his talent and comprehension have been further enhanced after breaking through to the immortal stage, making him no less than the peerless geniuses like Cortina, who appear only once every tens of millions of epochs in human history.

How long did it take for the Venerable Fire Erosion to become the Venerable Universe?

It's only been a few hundred thousand years!

The life gene level of the Yan God Clan's avatar is incredibly heaven-defying, far surpassing even the most unique life forms in the universe. Once it breaks through to the Universe Venerable realm, its basic strength alone can reach a trillion times the power of a World Lord, making it remarkably easy to possess the strength of a top-tier cosmic overlord.

"With the existence of the time simulator, I'm afraid that if I do another simulation, I can break through to the Universe Venerable realm!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

I've thought about it for a long time, but I still don't know how to arrange this test. Let's just leave it like this for now. If you have any good ideas, please leave a comment, and I can try to revise them if they're helpful...
